Re: [Nexus] NO XIII: Do Clockwork Penguins Dream of Mechanical Fish?
"Thank you, Slii. That knowledge is helpful, if disheartening." The bit about members vanishing for unknown reasons is outright frightening, but she doesn't add that.
"I will let you know when I have finished the assignment. Where am I likely to find you?" Knowing how to contact someone is important after all, she does not want to rely on bumping into him in the main room again.Expect my character 'Wanderer' to simply vanish. Please always err on the side of continuing without me. My schedule makes my posting patchy at times and I don't want to hold up other folks' fun.

((Actually, those two were Greg and another new member, who vanished due to player-awayness deadtime. Greg would have been perfect for this job, being NO's resident gun expert. Slii doesn't know what deadtime is, or else he'd have said as much.))

Re: [Nexus] NO XIII: Do Clockwork Penguins Dream of Mechanical Fish?
The mention that Slii has eyes everywhere makes one of Raennall's eyebrows go up quizzically and the other go down into a critical stare. "Very well, I know where to look then." she sums up their conversation, and returns her expression to a neutral one.
Raennall stands up, clearly ready to continue her search for someone that can help her on this mission. "I thank you again, Slii, for your gift."
((Oh, I figured that deadtime was the culprit, but Raennall is not semi-OOC-aware like my character Westlanna is, so Raennall just finds that information disturbing.))Expect my character 'Wanderer' to simply vanish.

Once Ashley and Kuko are gone, Dipsnig turns to Raennall and Slii.
Oh... Raennall, wasn't it? For the lack of other people available, I decided to go with you on that mission myself.

Irene arrives at the front door, looking for her soul!
... But she can't knock, so she'll probably have to wait on Jamie or Sophie or the onion or the pixie to do it for her.

Re: [Nexus] NO XIII: Do Clockwork Penguins Dream of Mechanical Fish?
"Yes, Sir, Raennall." She confirms. "Thank you. I shall go and prepare my things and meet you back here momentarily, if we are going to begin work immediately."
She steps forward, clearly ready to go and gather her weapons in preparation for the mission if he means for them to set forth now.

Re: [Nexus] NO XIII: Do Clockwork Penguins Dream of Mechanical Fish?
Front Door
Thanks to his spyrats (he has a few hiding under the couch, naturally) Slii notices the people at the door, and after making sure none of his recent projects will explode violently all over the tunnels he'll head back to the main room and see who has come a knocking (figuratively.)
Oh look, a ghost. Feeble manthings clinging to life after they've been rightfully put away.
And another small-thing, like mistress Roxie. Last but not least, a puny breeder, hardly fit to stand before him.
Slii, putting aside his rather hefty prejudices for the time being, puts on his best crooked smile, yellow teeth gleaming dully between thin grey lips.

Somewhere else entirely, Percilia's phone begins to ring irritatingly! Her ringtone is insufferably bland, nothing greater than a simple high-pitched "bring-bring" chime.
If only to make it stop ringing, Percilia answers it!

"Good. Good."
Percilia hurriedly responds.
"Meet me on the corner of 9th and Green Street. I'll be inside the warehouse located there. Use the "Employees Only" entrance access code 54104. I'm eagerly awaiting your arrival."

Oh. Sounds like she hung-up already. And what is up with Percilia and warehouses? The world may never know.

Re: [Nexus] NO XIII: Do Clockwork Penguins Dream of Mechanical Fish?
[Main Room]
Lady Raennall returns to the main room, her appearance greatly changed. Her scruffy brown hair is braided down her back to keep it out of her way. This reveals her broad shoulders which are now clad in a grey jacket, in preparation for an urban battle environment. Grey pants and sturdy boots complete the ensemble. Her sword is now clearly visible at her side and she is carrying a longbow. The quiver at her back sports a large and varied selection of arrows.
Light dully reflects off of black metal at her wrists and shins where a touch of light armor can be found and a trained eye would spot at least one dagger tucked away on her person.
"Thein brought my horse around front, should we have far to travel." she states simply, then she pauses for Dipsnig to lead the way.Expect my character 'Wanderer' to simply vanish.

Well, shouldn't we knock? Sallianne suggests, and is about to do so, when the door opens.

She reaches back, giving Pearl's hand a squeeze.

"We will go on foot then." she replies and follows him out the door. Thein is waiting a little ways away out in the snow. He is riding his pony in circles and leading the warhorse so it will be warmed up in case Lady Raennall needs to ride fast. She waves to Thein, and makes a swift hand motion toward the beastpens, followed by a second hand-sign. He waves back, yells, "Alright! Be safe!" and flashes the same sign back to her before he rides back toward the pens with the horses.
Then she returns her attention to the mission at hand. "Did our employer give you any additional information?" she inquires as they walk.Expect my character 'Wanderer' to simply vanish.

Well, apparently, what we'll see there is not for the faint of heart... some gruesome stuff according to our employer, Dipsnig says as he leads the way to Inside.
It's just so damn cold up here, Sophie complains. Having grown up in Champagne, she's not used to this climate.
