[Mithar Keep]

Harnel grins, "You'd make your skin a bit thicker so that I could give you wondrous massages?" He looks at the ceiling for a moment, basking in the glory of a job well done. Sort of. "I'm not sure the amulet can do that, but there's no reason not to give it a try."

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep]

"I was thinking scales... that would be something." She says with a hint of a smile. "I miss them sometimes you know, along with the tail..." She turns to look at him. "Do you think there is some sort of modifiable energy that could do that? I know I lack it but I'm aware that other worlds have access to similar things."

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep]

"So, you want to be able to turn into a half-dragon then, whenever you want?" he asks curiously, still working her shoulders a bit

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep]

"It would private use of course, I don't think I would want to turn into a half-dragon that often. Just a few times for fun. I don't like it effecting the babies either, could be dangerous." She slowly seems to realize as she's talking.

[The Alexandrian]

[Sir Hex's Mansion]

The tea was boiling no hotter than regular tea, actually. The Hatteress merely is confident that Sir Hex would have melted into a puddle of crimson, fleshy goo had she, hypothetically, assaulted him with a teatank of her own design.

Teleporting in the entire teatank as evidence might be more than impossible, even for someone as powerful as Sir Hex. Why? Because the teatank self-destructed once The Hatteress was a considerable distance away from it. The best Sir Hex will likely be able to retrieve and display as evidence in this kangaroo court might be metal fragments of were once formed into the laughable teatank and the warped rubber and metal coagulated into a black, lumpy mass that, not so long ago, served as the treads of the teatank.

The Hatteress stares at the useless mass, anger welling up inside of her.

It is then that a sound not unlike a chainsaw rumbling and roaring as it rips through a tree-trunk might be heard. It is accompanied by a vibrating metal blade being thrust through The Hatteress's hat and one low, tinny, robotic voice squeaking,

"Dormouse Defense System Version 5.2 activated. Lethal force authorized. Prepare to die, insert name here!"

Did The Hatteress even configure that cyborg-mouse correctly? I dunno. We'll soon find out, though!

>.<

I meant to write Spec, not Juppy. >.<

Trium inviting guests over to her house? That's completely unheard of! Trium doesn't have time for friends!

The lack of furniture does completely weird Spec out. It is more than a little...strange and creepy. Oh well! Spec bets that there will be furniture just littering the next room.

...

It would still be strange and creepy, even if furniture were to be found in the adjoining chamber.

Clarissa is back (finally)! She is stealthily sneaking toward the door of Dave's house, doing her best to remain unnoticed by Dave. She wonders how many people Dave has killed by now. She hopes that the number isn't anywhere near sky high. Carpeting and blood stains don't mix well at all!

[Trium's Pad]

In that case, Trium returned her smile, rather than looking surprised.

The next room is painted like the interior of an escape pod, and would appear to be a kitchen, from the counters and cupboards.

There's still no furniture, though. Not even a refrigerator.

[ThirdEmperor]

Sir Hex's Mansion

Dangit! Sir Hex really wishes he had his hammer right now. Then he could throw it at whatever deranged scientific creation is trying to cut it's way out of the hat. Seeing as that's not an option though, it's down to plan B; "Jerry, stomp on, er, whatever that thing is!" He shouts to one of the kangaroos, before taking cover in his desk fort. The mechanical doormouse might explode after all, and the last thing Hex needs is kangaroo blood splattered all over his suit.

The kangaroo named Jerry cautiously waddles forward, attempting to poke the hat with his foot before leaning down to sniff at it. After all, can't go stomping on something until you know what it smells like. It might be food!

[The Bushranger]

[Kara's Apartment]

When they get there, Talnissa will try to gently lay Kara on the bed. If successful, she'll look at her thoughtfully for a minute, then say "The problem with this is that it's harder for me to get under your shirt... Would you be more comortable with working around that dificulty, or just taking it off?"

Her tone suggests that, whatever Kara decides, it's fine with her.

Kara bites her lip for a moment, and blushes deeply.
"Well...I...I think I wouldn't mind taking it off."
And she does so, turned away from Talnissa, before stretching out on the bed on her front with a blush and a smile.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Kara's Apartment]

Talnissa returns the smile, and resumes the massage, focusing, for the moment, on whichever areas seem most tense, though once Kara is relaxed again (unless she didn't stop being that way, of course), she'll start to concentrate more on any spots that seem particularly sensitive, though still making sure that Kara's entire back is gotten.

As she goes towards the front door she'll see that the many traps that Dave has on his front door were set off when he first went there.
And that he's passed out in front of her on the doorstep, the Ron on his finger and a half eaten corpse under him.

[Murkus]

[Fettina's Suite]

"Magic isn't that difficult if you know what you're doing," Evan says, smiling at how happy she seemed, "The real problem is exhausting yourself. Unless people have been using magic their entire lives, it's pretty easy to exhaust yourself. One way to think of it is like an atrophied muscle; spent so long not using it that it's wasted away and gets tired very quickly. Working at it builds up the power."

As a matter of fact, Tina should start feeling tired at this point, as she barely has the magical strength to even give herself elven ears. That is, unless she's gifted, in which case her natural level of magical strength is quite high already.

"Well I feel fine. Here, lemme look in the mirror..." Tina starts to stand, but nearly falls back onto the couch. She seems a bit drowsy, but manages to compose herself and stand straight. "Whoah. Headrush. Scratch that."

[The Alexandrian]

[Sir Hex's Mansion]

Jerry the kangaroo might find a cyborg mouse charging out of the slit in The Hatteress's hat armed with a tiny chainsaw! It attempts to leap onto his back, piercing, red, soulless eyes glaring at Sir Hex's desk-fort maliciously.

"Stand down, hostile, or I will use lethal force!"

The Hatter is now both mad and angry! Her blaring voice hurls itself forward!

"You disgusting thing! You wrecked my hat!"

I think that that is the least of your problems right now, Hatty!

--------
[Trium's Pad]

Okay! Something is up! This isn't normal! This isn't normal at all!

"Hey, um, I noticed that you don't have any furniture in this place..."

"Why is that?"

An innocent enough question, I suppose.

[134 Ninja Drive]

Clarissa shall furtively tries to tiptoe over to the knocked out Dave's side before her hands dart out in an attempt to grasp his ring-sporting hand and trying to cram his ring and the finger attached to it into her mouth and biting down on it full force with teeth sharper than the honed cutting edge of a katana! She's trying to separate Dave from the corrupted ring...and his finger!

Ouch! If this works, it is really, really going to hurt Dave (probably)!

[The Bushranger]

[Kara's Apartment]

Talnissa returns the smile, and resumes the massage, focusing, for the moment, on whichever areas seem most tense, though once Kara is relaxed again (unless she didn't stop being that way, of course), she'll start to concentrate more on any spots that seem particularly sensitive, though still making sure that Kara's entire back is gotten.

That would be Kara's shoulders, and it isn't very long at all before she's completely relaxed, sighing happily, and shivering in soft pleasure at the massage.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Trium's Pad]

Trium smiles, and presses one of the controls, which, apparently, isn't just painted on, as a table and several chairs slide up out of the floor.

"I do. It's just that it messes up the paint scheme to have it out all the time."

[Mindfreak]

134 Ninja Drive
Dave's finger comes off in Clarissa's mouth!
She'll find that he doesn't taste like cookies at all!
He tastes like pickles!
And her biting it off causes him to wake up!
"OHGODMYFINGER!"
Then he notices the half eaten dead corpse.
"OHGODWHATHAVEIDONE!"

[Lady Serpentine]

[Kara's Apartment]



That would be Kara's shoulders, and it isn't very long at all before she's completely relaxed, sighing happily, and shivering in soft pleasure at the massage.

[Kara's Apartment]

Talnissa continues, smiling happily.

Eventually, if she's not interrupted before then, she'll lean over and try to kiss the back of Kara's neck, not pausing in the massage.

[The Bushranger]

[Kara's Apartment]

Kara is too happy to interrupt!
And the kiss to the back of her neck just makes the slender brunette smile more.
"You're wonderful, love..."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Kara's Apartment]

Talnissa grins, continuing.

"So are you, s'saeta...

[The Bushranger]

[Kara's Apartment]

Kara smiles more, blushes more, and then whispers again.
"If...if you want to do more...then...so do I..."

[ThirdEmperor]

Sir Hex's Mansion

Sir Hex is struck by a realization, one that really should have occured to him earlier. "Oh, I get it! You're Mad Hatter themed! Y'know, I actually know the real March Hare. In fact, he's sort of my brother." Well, that's awfully nice, but Hex should really focus on the mechanical murder mouse glaring at him, instead of completely disregarding the fact he's about to get chopped into a gazillion pieces.

Jerry at least isn't being so damned feather-brained, having considerably more common sense than Hex, and is doing his darndest to fix the rodent situation. By which I mean he's hopping and flailing around wildly, trying to remove the accursed mouse from his back, a task which is sadly made nigh impossible by short little kangaroo arms.

The other kangaroos have broken out the popcorn and are watched the silly display with much amusement!

[Lady Serpentine]

[Kara's Apartment]

Talnissa nods, and says "I do. But only if you're comfortable with it."

[The Bushranger]

[Kara's Apartment]

Kara's cheeks are bright red. But she nods emphatically.
"I...I do. I am. I'm...I'm comfortable with anything with you, love."
She turns, enought to reach and try to give Talnissa's hand a squeeze.

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep]

"It would private use of course, I don't think I would want to turn into a half-dragon that often. Just a few times for fun. I don't like it effecting the babies either, could be dangerous." She slowly seems to realize as she's talking.

[Mithar Keep]

"I have to agree there," Harnel says, "Until we know what would happen to any children, it's best only to use transformation things like that while you're not pregnant." He thinks about that for a moment though, "What about your illusions, though? I doubt it'd hurt the babies just to put a small layer of scales on your back so I can give you better massages."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Kara's Apartment]

Kara's cheeks are bright red. But she nods emphatically.
"I...I do. I am. I'm...I'm comfortable with anything with you, love."
She turns, enought to reach and try to give Talnissa's hand a squeeze.

[Kara's Apartment]

Talnissa returns the squeeze, and tries to kiss Kara, going to run her free hand down her spine.

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep]

"An illusion takes some time to prepare though Harnel, I actually need to wave the pattern rather then just draw it directly from the elemental realm. To shape the light directly and give it form. I can probably work up an entire half-dragon illusion in not much more time." The mage claims.

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep]

"Well, it would be safer than turning into an actual half-dragon, at least. Or, I think it would. In any case, you should do what you feel is best. I have to admit; normal skin feels a lot better than scales do." Harnel bends down to kiss the back of Cessie's head.

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep]

"You really think so Harnel?" Cessie asks with a smile. "Maybe I should go for a quarter dragon then, like our children." She asks, slowly starting to rub his neck with her hand.

[The Bushranger]

[Kara's Apartment]

Kara shivers softly at Talnissa's touch, returning the kiss happily.

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep]

Harnel grins as she raises her hand to his neck, "Do what you feel is best. You look beautiful in scales, either way."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Kara's Apartment]

Talnissa, unless stopped, reaches around behind herself, and traces a small sigil on the back of her dress, which will cause the unspecified (as her player hasn't decided it ) method of keeping it from slipping off to stop doing so.
