Char's

Quiet thinks quietly.

um.. Can I stay here after we eat?

[lord pringle]

Char's

Quiet thinks quietly.

um.. Can I stay here after we eat?

Char shrugs, "I had assumed you were staying anyway. I'd offer you the guest room, but..." She trails off and waves her hand at the door. "Is the couch okay with you?"

[Terumitsu]

Riss' Quarters

"Sorry for killing your good mood. I'm happy for you, since this seems like a really good thing, I just let my own worries get in the way of that." Misha's arms slide around the muse's waist and the nereid slowly leans back, trying to pull Riss up and then on top of her as she reclines in the pool, floating languidly.

"A natural body and a mechanical one sounds fine to start, but if we're going to try this, I want to know as much as I can of what's going on. I already wanted to learn more about biology, now I'll just have to learn faster in order to keep up with the schedule. For you, it will be possible." She tries to delicately kiss the end of Riss' nose to punctuate the statement.

[Riss' Quarters]

"No.. I think you're right to voice your worries. Really, I think you're doing me a favor by doing so as I might possibly be trying to learn how to swim by jumping into deep water first, metaphorically speaking." Riss said, smiling lightly at the kiss and leaning forward just enough so that her forehead would press against Misha's. Being this close, her vision was just slightly blurry but if she leaned to one side she could feel the tips of her eyelashes brush against the nereid's each time one of them blinked. Still, she was careful with her movements so that she wouldn't end up tipping over now that the pair was drifting along rather than anchored. "And I'll try to keep you in the loop of what I'm doing with constructing these new forms. I was planning on asking you later on if you had any ideas you'd like to see added in their creation, though. After all, this doesn't just impact me."

Now that the topic had been more or less exhausted for the moment, though, a question came to mind from one of Misha's earlier statements. "So.. Out of curiosity.. What is it that you feel when you take on my form?"

[Gullara]

[Riss' Quarters]

The pair will soon hear a familiar voice coming from outside of the room. "Riss! Misha!" Oddly, Mimi's voice is getting louder than her little lungs could possibly manage. The mystery (in Misha's case at least) is solved a moment later when a regular human height Mimi bursts into the room. "Look at me! I'm so bi-" The over sized pixie trips on her own feet and lands face first on the floor. Ouch.

[Dark Elf Bard]

Char shrugs, "I had assumed you were staying anyway. I'd offer you the guest room, but..." She trails off and waves her hand at the door. "Is the couch okay with you?"

Couch?! I get to sleep on a couch?! Thank you!!

The little devilish girl attacks Char's waist with a tight hug!

[lord pringle]

[Char's House]

Char meeps as Quiet grabs her. "It's just a couch." She pats Quiet's head nervously. "Is there anything you want to do tonight? I have movies over there if you want to watch some." Char isn't trying to wriggle out of the grasp, she's just standing there awkwardly.

[Dark Elf Bard]

Char's

Movie? What's that?
Quiet lets go, smiling more brightly than before.

[lord pringle]

[Char's House]

"A movie? It's like a story with pictures that move. I'm sorry, that was the worst description anyone could have given ever. You need to see one to know what I'm talking about." She turns on the TV and puts in the original Star Wars movie. "C'mon, sit down and watch this."

[Murkus]

I have some food. Vierzt nibbles her neck a last time and gets up. Want anything in particular?

"Mmm... something with cheese. Eggs, maybe," Gelley lies back and twists her body in a stretch, throwing up her arms. A groan escapes her. "Nnnnh... some orange juice would be nice..."

[Fettina's Place]

Evan won't stop Gelley from lifting up his shirt, though he does stop cooking for a moment so that it doesn't interrupt anything. He chuckles and gives a curious glance to Naitiri, but has the tact not to say anything just yet. That can wait for a time when there won't be people who'll tease her, "I'm strong, I'm fun, I clean, and I make a great beef wellington. What more could you possibly want in a man?"

"Nice to finally meet the final sister. Given these two, I wasn't quite sure what to expect."

"Nice to meet you too! Though I hope Nait n' Tina haven't bored you too much," Gel teases, bouncing around the kitchen to see what Evan's been making. She doesn't even know what the meal is.

"Hey, we have yet to see that Wellington," Tina reminds him, arms crossed. She shifts her weight from one hip to the other and glances at their eldest sister. "Nait, you were always better at this than me. Wanna make sure Evan doesn't burn anything?"

"I... did you did say Beef Wellington? Real beef? God, I haven't eaten like that in years," Naitiri says, moving inside the kitchen despite her rather awkward position. "What do you need me to do?"

[No Longer House Hunting]

"What did I say about bodies." Kirk says, entirely unconcerned as he steps past her into the room. "What's the chance we can get a discount for this?" He kneels by the stain and tests to see if it's at all wet soon. It's not much of a concern if it's completely dry.

No Longer House Hunting

The stains are dry... very old. Very, very old. An expert might be able to age it.

If they get an expert to age it, it's about 25 years old.

Well at least they're ancient. That doesn't help Tina's position any. She looks at Kirk like he's crazy. "Really? Even this doesn't freak you out?" The blue girl still seems a bit spooked.

[Halae]

[Fettina's Place]

Evan tsks, "Oh ye have little faith. If you'd like to help, could you-" and I'm not going to narrate that, because I'm an incredibly terrible cook and would screw something up. I've burnt boiled eggs before. Regardless, Evan is honestly a pretty good chef, and will be making the wellington properly and well throughout the entirety of the process.

[Dark Elf Bard]

[Char's House]

"A movie? It's like a story with pictures that move. I'm sorry, that was the worst description anyone could have given ever. You need to see one to know what I'm talking about." She turns on the TV and puts in the original Star Wars movie. "C'mon, sit down and watch this."

Quiet sits on the couch and leans on Char's shoulder!

"Mmm... something with cheese. Eggs, maybe," Gelley lies back and twists her body in a stretch, throwing up her arms. A groan escapes her. "Nnnnh... some orange juice would be nice..."

Vierzt gets up to make a cheese omelet!

Anything else?

[lord pringle]

[Char's House]

((Should we timeskip through food and the movie?))

[Dark Elf Bard]

Char's

((Go ahead.))

[Murkus]

[Fettina's Place]

Harnel, I picked Wellington because it was one of the hardest dishes I'd heard of. I'd probably believe anything you said about how to actually make it.

Naitiri, on the other hand, certainly seems to know what she's doing in the kitchen. Even moreso than Tina, she hasn't always had someone to cook for her. The tall, slim woman has most of the beef bake sorted in minutes, with Evan's help of course. He may have a moment to speak with her, if he pleases, whilst Gelley pesters Tina about various things.

"Really? A drow?"

"Yep! He's nice. I guess all that stuff about drow guys was hokey, huh?"

"Well, they're not all bad."

"Not in bed, at least..."

"Gelley, hey!" They descend into a fit of giggles.

[Treehouse]

"Mm... something sweet!" DB says, giving Vierzt a gleaming smile for his trouble. "Don't bother getting dressed." The heroine gives him a wink and hops up, right before walking over to Vierzt's bed so she can flop back down again.

[Dark Elf Bard]

Treehouse

((Was Gelley talking about Vierzt in the Fettina post? :P))

Vierzt goes to the kitchen to cook

[lord pringle]

[Char's House]

Char grabs a remaining spring roll and asks, "So how was your first movie?"

[Slii Arhem]

[Riss' Quarters]

The pair will soon hear a familiar voice coming from outside of the room. "Riss! Misha!" Oddly, Mimi's voice is getting louder than her little lungs could possibly manage. The mystery (in Misha's case at least) is solved a moment later when a regular human height Mimi bursts into the room. "Look at me! I'm so bi-" The over sized pixie trips on her own feet and lands face first on the floor. Ouch.

[Riss' Quarters]

"No.. I think you're right to voice your worries. Really, I think you're doing me a favor by doing so as I might possibly be trying to learn how to swim by jumping into deep water first, metaphorically speaking." Riss said, smiling lightly at the kiss and leaning forward just enough so that her forehead would press against Misha's. Being this close, her vision was just slightly blurry but if she leaned to one side she could feel the tips of her eyelashes brush against the nereid's each time one of them blinked. Still, she was careful with her movements so that she wouldn't end up tipping over now that the pair was drifting along rather than anchored. "And I'll try to keep you in the loop of what I'm doing with constructing these new forms. I was planning on asking you later on if you had any ideas you'd like to see added in their creation, though. After all, this doesn't just impact me."

Now that the topic had been more or less exhausted for the moment, though, a question came to mind from one of Misha's earlier statements. "So.. Out of curiosity.. What is it that you feel when you take on my form?"

Riss' Quarters

"Well, I try to fight it, so I don't really know what I would be feeling fully if I didn't do everything to keep my head, but... back in my pool, I would stack and count things to pass the time, and try to stack things so they actually looked like something, sometimes even shaping them so they'd stack better. Being in your form gave me the urge to try that again even though I wasn't bored at all. And... okay, there's no way to describe this that would make sense, but almost all of the people I can take the form of are lacking something that my natural form has, and you're lacking less of it. Mimi has it too, but I only notice it when it's not there since I normally have it." There, that frustrating bit of mental untangling is finally said.

Oh hey look it's a big Mimi! On the ground! Unable to help herself, Misha burst out into honest, surprised laughter at the sight of it. She's seen Mimi large before after the pixie and muse went out one day and came back supporting each other, but she supposed this was different somehow if the pixie was so exited about it.

Without so much as kicking her legs, Misha floats over to the side of the pool so that Riss can climb off of her and help Mimi if she wishes. Being on the bottom, the nereid can't really do anything to help without tipping Riss into the water, and she's fairly unwilling to do that.

[Terumitsu]

[Riss' Quarters]

While that was certainly not what the muse expected, it was certainly interesting... Although it did raise a few questions in her mind. Though... I guess I'm kinda happy that the answer wasn't just 'kinda like everyone else' or something, though. She wasn't able to dwell long on the topic, however, as Mimi had returned from her little hunt.

"I see you were able to find what I picked out for you!" Riss exclaimed as she slid back into the pool after giving Misha one last squeeze. Pulling herself out of the water, she quickly strode over to where the pixie had landed and knelt down to try and help her back up. "Are you alright? You've got to be a little more careful while you wear those things.. At least when it comes to falls and such. You can actually hurt yourself now if you don't watch out." the muse said with concern although the twitching of her tail clearly broadcast her enthusiasm for the pixie's choice in trying her gift out so immediately.

[Gullara]

[Riss' Quarters]

Mimi is helped up with little trouble. The fall hasn't damaged her excitement any. "I'm okay, I'm okay. It's such an awesome gift. It's like when I can make myself big, but it, like, feels better and I don't feel all weird and tired. And I can even fly still! It's so cool. Thanks, Riss." Mimi tries to throw her arms around the muse and give her a long, enthusiastic kiss.

[No Longer House Hunting]

"This blood's been here ages. Nothing to worry about." Kirk assures her. Never mind that he was obviously not worried before he could see it well. "Some nut probably owned the place a while back."

[Lost_Deep]

No Longer House Hunting

The cold stone is cold stone, as opposed to a part-time earth elemental or somesuch, and gives no answers.

About now, thunder rumbles through the house. Must have been very loud for them to hear it down here.

[Dark Elf Bard]

[Char's House]

Char grabs a remaining spring roll and asks, "So how was your first movie?"

Quiet is in awe, both of the yummy Chinese food and the movie.


That was amazing! The Jedi were so cool, they had laser swords! And the food was so good, I've never had much more than gruel! Where does it come from!?

[lord pringle]

[Char's House]

Char briefly ponders the question before responding with, "Well, the Chinese food came from a restaurant called The Generic Dragon. The movie was filmed somewhere. Aaaand since you're going to be staying the night, I guess we could watch the other movies in the series!"

[Dark Elf Bard]

Char's

Char gets another hug to the waist!

It's shorter this time, now that Quiet is trying out all kinds of new food besides her usual gruel.

[Slii Arhem]

[Riss' Quarters]

While that was certainly not what the muse expected, it was certainly interesting... Although it did raise a few questions in her mind. Though... I guess I'm kinda happy that the answer wasn't just 'kinda like everyone else' or something, though. She wasn't able to dwell long on the topic, however, as Mimi had returned from her little hunt.

It's like when I can make myself big, but it, like, feels better and I don't feel all weird and tired. And I can even fly still! It's so cool. Thanks, Riss." Mimi tries to throw her arms around the muse and give her a long, enthusiastic kiss.

Riss' Quarters

"So that was your idea? I have to admit, this makes everyone interacting much easier when Mimi doesn't have to exhaust herself either bring herself up to our size or bringing you down to hers." Misha rolls over so she's on her stomach and then rights herself so she can stand on the bottom of the pool, her body down to her chest visible above the water's surface.

"Guess what Mimi, Riss' brain thing is going to be done soon too. We were just talking about the news while we waited for you to get back."

[Terumitsu]

[Riss' Quarters]

The muse hadn't expected such an enthusiastic expression of thanks but she wasn't about to refuse either. Of course, the fact that Mimi would now have the opportunities for such things rather than having to worry about possibly being too tired from using her skills was part of the reason why Riss had commissioned the gift in the first place. Regardless of the reasons, though, Mimi would be getting a tight hug in response before the muse would pull away. "I'm really glad you like it." she said, meaning every word.

Adding on to Misha's explanation, Riss said: "Yeah, we were talking over what I could do once the process is finished. Particularly the idea that I could start inhabiting more than one body at once and.. Well there was a lot covered on that topic but what about you? Would you be opposed to having two more of me running around?" As she spoke, Riss tried to gently lead Mimi towards the pool. Having just left the warm water, she felt a growing chill coming over her and would greatly appreciate remedying that.

[Gullara]

[Riss' Quarters]

Mimi lets herself be guided toward the water. She wonders what swimming will be like when she's this big, and she should probably take off her dress... The pixie's thoughts are interrupted when she suddenly realizes that she has no idea what Riss and Misha are talking about. "Huh? What do you mean?" She looks between the two, rather bewildered.

[Slii Arhem]

Riss' Quarters

Misha is entirely nude at this point, having discorporated several times since she was last wearing clothes, so Mimi undressing will probably even the playing field somewhat.

"Uhm... oh, I don't know if you were told or not? And I have no idea how to describe it well enough. I guess this one's all yours my muse." Misha glides back from the edge lazily to let the other two enter the pool as they wish, sliding a bit deeper into the water until she's nearly up to her shoulders.

[Shadowcaller]

Trisha's Cabin

Trisha nods and tries to slip her arm around Michi's waist to guide her to the cabin. The elf will see the Champion chew on her lip the entire time, nervous as she tries to figure a way to explain it. Once inside she'll take a seat on their bed before taking a deep breath and trying to explain. "We Champions are so linked to Emotions and Ideas that there is a good chance that we can switch over to a new one if we change too much. That or simply lose our gifts if there's no new one that we feel strong enough." She says before reaching out to try and take Michi's hand in her own and will start tracing a circle on the back with her thumb.

"You mean a lot to me, Michi. More than anyone or anything, and I can't imagine going back to what I was anymore now that I've met you." She admits quietly. "I...I love you, Michi, and that's what I've become now."

Trisha's Cabin

Michicora have to sit down, she probably should get some clothes but somehow that seemed less important right now. "Trisha... I don't know what to say. I'm not sure, not ready..." She attempts to take the champions hands and squeezes them harder then ever before as she looks into her eyes. She's shaking.

"I don't know what to say." She finally admits, but the smile on her face probably say much more then her words ever could. "But... I feel the same way, whatever you are or this means I want you to know that. Even if I don't really understand it right now."

[lord pringle]

Char's House

Char is awkward for the duration of the hug. She gives a weak "Yay..."

[Gullara]

[Lisa's Home]

"The best part is that I met some college-age art students through friends in the club. One of them is even in advertising. That's how my group of friends all sort of met." Emmi says.

[Lisa's Home]

"That's pretty dang cool that you all met up like that. I'd kill for a club like that. My school is amazingly boring. So why were collage age people at a high school club anyway?" Lisa say.
