Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
Elanna leaned against the Boabhan, grateful for the support as she unsteadily got to her feet. As the group carefully escorted her away from the table, she muzzily heard a voice speaking to her.
A young....man?....was asking her about a person called Prism. The poor dear looked almost as bad as she felt, his face betraying a lack of sleep and a shattered mind. She gently cupped his cheek in her palm and whispered softly.
"I'm sorry, my sweet, but I do not know who that is. Perhaps a little later when I feel more like myself, we can talk then?"
Her consciousness rapidly fading, the sidhe almost carried her up the stairs to the room and as soon as her head lay on the pillow, darkness claimed her completely...

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
"Well, I'll need your help to find my way around this world. Two heads are better than one, eh? If you're willing to come with me, that is." He smiles hopefully at Aeia. She's having an odd effect on him. He's not usually this polite and focused. How odd.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
While Bellan is still distracted by the weepy dragon, Sticks appears beside Marty with a rustle of his cloak. The eerie creature smiles a silver smile, his ragged beggar's robe glowing faintly.
"What ails you, friend? A broken heart?" He raises a steel finger and points, grinning. His accent is thick, lilting and vaguely Greco-Roman. "Don't ask, I know the look."Last edited by Murkus; 2012-03-29 at 10:38 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
A shadow passed over the tavern. A large, dark shape had passed between the windows and the moon outside. Something was moving outside. Something big. Something grey. It floated slowly, steadily coming closer. Those inside may hear an ominous crunching sound. Some near the windows will spot a leathery, bristled visage. Suddenly!

[Q for Quest]
"It'll be an Adventure!" Jamie declares with a grin on her face, as she finishes off the last of her Llamaade.
And jumps at the sudden boof!
===
Meanwhile, it's possible, that Talnissa, Kara, and new friend arrive.
Kara jumps as well. Looks around.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
Indeed they do. At least Talnissa and Kara, though there's no reason to think Pass wouldn't be with them.
Talnissa also jumps, looking rather startled, and then, on seeing what it is, quite confused.
"...Is it just me, or were the streets nowhere near flooded enough to allow that right before we came in?"

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
Actually, it still isn't flooded. There's a Manatee floating in midair outside. It's a bit confused and wiggling its nose.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
"Excellent! I'm glad you agree." Being stuck in a strange new world with no idea what is going on isn't so bad if you have an attractive companion to help figure things out. At least that's Phineas's opinion on the matter. He grins happily at Aeia, then whirls around at the loud boofing sound, and stares at the flying manatee for a while.
His voice is rather distant as he speaks. "I am very glad that we're going to stick together. Sometimes this place is too weird even for me."Last edited by Sneaky Weasel; 2012-03-30 at 02:52 AM.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
Aeia looks past him and out the window to see the manatee as well. "Yeah... I think I know what you mean." She just sort of stares blankly for a moment. Craziness.
"Well, I'm sure Bark will be happy you're coming along too." Phineas almost forgot about him, didn't he? It's anyone's guess why she thinks Bark will be happy about anything, let alone dragging Phineas along.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
"...Wha?" Hildur is only more confused. "I'm talking about a helicopter. You know, an air vehicle." It doesn't seem to occur to her that Kinari might not know what a helicopter is.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
"Well, that certainly makes it clearer you're not talking about a form of cleaver...", Kirani replies, frowning, and looking still more puzzled than Hildur. "But no, I do not know. 'Air vehicle', as a concept, I can accept, but I'm not aware of any examples. What precisely is a helicopter?"

"It's, ah, a flying vehicle. Uses rotors and engines to push itself off the ground." Hildur gulps down the rest of her water. "You'll have to forgive me, I don't know much about how they work myself."

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
"I see. Sort of, anyway...", Kinari muses, looking rather thoughtful. "But anyway, mountain racing in your world doesn't involve an endurance component, I take it? Part of the challenge where I'm from is being able to climb to the top quickly and still have a reasonable amount of energy left to go back down."

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
Phineas is like an elephant, in some ways. Namely, he never forgets.
"You know, Bark reminds me of a buddy I had before I died. Big, didn't talk much, little emotion. Except the guy I knew sort of lost control every full moon, but aside from that they're pretty similar." He frowns slightly, lost in thought.~Sneaky Weasel~

"No, we go straight up to the top of the mountain, then we race down." Hildur perks up as she talks of racing. Maybe she could find a place where she could snowboard here.

"Don't worry, mister. We'll be fine," Jamie says confidently, even as she pays for her meal - and starts twirling her wand between her fingers.

Kara, meanwhile, will try to steer Talnissa and Pass to a corner table well away from the looming herbivore outside.

"Alright then, let's get going before one of us grows some common sense." Jack smiles at the three who agreed to come along, then heads for the door, map and note secured in his pocket.
Assuming the others follow, they can head to the cave, and Harnel's plot thread!Julie, everyone's nth favorite succubus, by Gulaghar.

For anyone in plots run by me, know that I always tailor solutions to those in the plot. The answer may not be obvious, but it's there, and doable by the displayed abilities of the present characters. If you need help or hints, I'll try to be available to provide them.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
Marty is startled by the large soulforged. Ah! Oh, Um...h-hello? Y-Yes...w-why ask? Who are y-you? Marty looks a little frightened by the things appearance. Then again, just about anything frightens him.
Marty apologizes, Oh, I'm s-so s-sorry...thought y-you were s-someone I knew. Sorry. He backs away from her just as he's talked to by Sticks.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
An extremely attractive drow lady swishes in the door. She's wearing a revealing shirt, a purple skirt, and a pink bandanna around her long hair, reaching to her thighs. She smiles at everyone she sees, and scurries up to the bar. There are pink and purple flowers in her hair, and one falls off aaas she swishes by Marty.
Whoops! Sorry mister!

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLI
Marty is temporarily distracted by the drow. He was glad to be, he was staring at Sticks. Who intimidated the little half-elf. Marty picks up the flower and hands it to her, Oh. h-here. S-sorry. M-my fault.
