Kallista looks frightened. No! Bad dog!

Eo looks a bit surprised, but is fine.
THERE IS NO TROUBLE; HE MERELY SEEMS INTERESTED, NOT MALICIOUS

[Dark Elf Bard]

Park

I guess... Kallista still watches the dog.

Uh, if you don;t mind me asking, can you talk?

[Beans]

[Park]
She shakes her head.
NO
DUE TO DAMAGE TO MY VOCAL APPARATUS I AM UNABLE TO SPEAK

[Dark Elf Bard]

Park

Aww... that's too bad. Her eyes light up! Good thing you can still communicate with your wristband!

She smiles, rubbing the dog's tummy. Do you have any pets?

[Beans]

[Park]
She shakes her head.
I DO NOT HAVE ANY, NO

[Dark Elf Bard]

Park

Um.. do you want to help me name the dog, then? I'm not very g-good with names...

[Beans]

[Park]
I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO NAME HIM EITHER
I APOLOGIZE
She frowns and shrugs.

[Dark Elf Bard]

Park

It's okay. She scratches the puppy again.

[Beans]

[Park]
She nods, continuing the petting.

Salix pokes at the robe-y things with her surprisingly clean fingers. "There's lots of clothes here. Even more than the clothes box at GLoG." That was the biggest amount of clothing she'd seen before now. To think, she barely knew a thing about clothes a matter of months ago, and now she's out shopping for them. Whatever shopping is.

Oddball is still on Jamie's shoulder, and looks around with wonder at all the ranks of clothes. He fervently hopes there's no Pokemon accessories for pokemon contests and such like; he really doesn't want to be dressed up.

Natalie will quickly look through the shapeshifter department, though she's having some difficulty finding anything that looks like it'll fit. Most of it, however, is one-size-fits-all and a bit more literal than usual; it changes size to fit its wearer. That isn't quite what Natalie wants, however, as only her natural and her first forms are humanoid. She needs something for lycanthropes.

Rainbow is currently trying to find a nice pair of rainbow pajamas.
She needs a new pair!
"Do any of you guys see pajamas?"

Oddball will be happy to see no Pokemon acessories!
Natalie will find some lycanthrophic accessories, but there's a note about custom orders...
Jamie giggles and points Rainbow torwards sleepwear!

"Well, yeah, it's a clothes store. What do you want to get first?"

[Dark Elf Bard]

[Park]
She nods, continuing the petting.

Kallista will keep petting the dog as well.

If, uh.. you're Eo-1, is there an Eo-2?

[Beans]

[Park]
She blinks.
POSSIBLY
I HAVE HEARD NOTHING OF ANY FURTHER EOS, THOUGH

[Dark Elf Bard]

Park

Hmm... Kallista stays quiet.

Do you know what you're naming the baby? Eo-2? The gnome smiles unsteadily.

[Beans]

[Park]
She smiles at that.
POSSIBLY, THOUGH I MAY CHOOSE ANOTHER NAME DEPENDING ON THE CHILD'S GENDER

[Dark Elf Bard]

Park

Like what? Kallista smiles with relief.

[Beans]

[Park]
I AM... NOT SURE
I MUST SAY THAT I AM NOT PARTICULARLY GOOD AT NAMING THINGS
She smiles a little ruefully.

[Dark Elf Bard]

Oh, right. She smiles warmly.

Streets

"It's not just a Police Box. It's a ship. The TARDIS. There's only one other person anywhere who can pilot it," the Doctor explains, speaking quickly. He reaches into his pocket, pulling out his sonic screwdriver. "But why? What does he want with it? He has one of his own!" He holds his sonic screwdriver up to his face, hunching down slightly as he focuses on its many settings. Once he's satisfied, he holds it up into the air. It emits a shrill buzzing noise and he begins to walk in slow circles, raising it up and down as though he were following it. "Come on, come on... AHA! He can't take it out of this planet! It's... that way!"

And then he goes running off.

[Running with the Doctor!]

Well look at that!

Amil is running! And having only a faint idea of what's going on.

"Does this happen often around you?" she inquires curiously. "The running, I mean. I've noticed an awful lot of running already."

She brings up a good point!

What's up with all that running?

Crazy Doctor.

IN OTHER NEWS!

Rebo will totally provide PM-based pokes when doom begins popping up.

[Streets]

"That's probably because it's not a planet." Victoria mumbles mostly to herself since the others had already run off. That couldn't be healthy for the unconscious woman, she thinks, all this running about. With a sigh the half fiend takes to the air, taking up a leisurely pace in the air, but keeping up with those on the ground.

Salix looks around with wide eyes. Left, then right. She has no idea where to start. "Um... I dunno."

[Dimonite]

Park
The rainbow puppy, upon hearing discussion of getting a name, seems very excited, but then whimpers slightly and pouts when no name is chosen.

Red Zone

[Red Zone]

Mrs. Bloodplunder's flail strikes true, driving the Chrysalid back a meter. The hit doesn't seem to hamper it much, as it recovers in a few seconds and hisses. Before it can attack again, it's hit by Ace's card and shocked. It makes a pained noise as it's rooted to the spot, turning its head between its two foes. These humans were powerful, but it did not matter.

Red Zone

"BLOODPLUNDER!" Mrs. Bloodplunder is charging, far faster than one would expect her to, and with quite a ferocious expression on her face; one that doesn't seem to fit with her usual pleasant grandmother disposition. Her eyes have an indigo light to them, and a pair of translucent indigo orcs fade into view on either side. Light the same shade is leaking from the flail. She's sweeping her flail from right to left to right as she goes, and should it connect it is very powerful. If it tries to dodge whilst she's a distance away, she'll alter course so she still intercepts.

Yup.
Grandmas are terrifying. Never piss off an old woman. Especially old women with crazy magic flails and the ability to create magic see-through orcs.

It looks like Mrs. Bloodplunder has a pretty good hand of the situation, though, so Ace occupies himself with a smaller but equally important task. Drawing three cards off the top of the deck, Ace turns to face the end of the alleyway and hurls the cards at the mouth. They land in a neat row, embedded half-way into the cement, each of them the Three of Diamonds. With a snap of Ace's fingers, they flair to life. Three translucent barriers rise up from the cards, over-lapping to form a barrier. It's mostly solid. Any crazy-creepy insect things wanting to scuttle past Ace and Mrs. Bloodplunder will have a heck of a hard time getting through that.

Streets - Running!

"Oh yes!" the Doctor yells back. "Lots of running!"

The Doctor leads the way through the streets, dodging and weaving around foot-traffic and even the odd trolley. He holds his sonic screwdriver up in the air in front of him, following it like a dog on a leash. Victoria and Amil might figure out that they're headed towards Mallside, but the Doctor clearly has no idea where he is.

[ThirdEmperor]

Mallside Parking Lot

Wise choice. The triplets in turn decide to forget Magtok's prominent position as number five on Riv's 'people to kill one of these days' list, reasoning that with an infinite number of days to go, the odds of today being the day are only slightly more than zero, thus not murdering him doesn't count as a direct disobedience.

The draconic soul, meanwhile, is free of any of that bad stuff. Not sure how you would go about bugging a soul anyway, although I'm sure someone in the Nexus could and has.

"If we find one, we'll call you." Alpha says, giving Magtok a curt nod while his brothers gather up the suits. "That will be all."

[Zefir]

"Thank ya. I... guess I should head back to Watch. Didja need a ride?" Cornelia asks, getting up slowly.

"No. I still have some work to do here."

((Murkus you missed me in Exxelsion))

[Beans]

Oh, right. She smiles warmly.

[Park]
WHAT WOULD YOU SUGGEST

[Lord Magtok]

Mallside Parking Lot

"Until next time, then."

Magtok reaches into his robe, and pulls out what appears to be some sort of flare gun thingy, which he points straight up into the air and fires harmlessly into the sky.

"Mainframe, 'port me out."

It's completely disgusting what Magtok has to resort to in order to telewarp around the Nexus now, with the entire MagNet down after that AI attack. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

[Dark Elf Bard]

[Park]
WHAT WOULD YOU SUGGEST

I don't know... I know some gnome names? She shrugs.

[Devixer]

[Red Zone]

At about the time that Mrs. Bloodplunder starts to charge, the Chrysalid has recovered from the lightning card. It charges right at her rather than try to dodge, ignoring the magic orcs. When it gets close enough, it tries to grab her flail-swinging wrist with on of its arms, using the other to try and hoist her by the neck.

[Beans]

I don't know... I know some gnome names? She shrugs.

[Park]
[font="Lucida"]GNOME NAMES SOUND AS GOOD AS ANY TO ME/font]

[Dark Elf Bard]

Park

Boy? Girl? Both?

[Beans]

Park

Boy? Girl? Both?

SEVERAL FROM EACH CATEGORY WOULD BE APPRECIATED
She nods.
