Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
"What, is that a thing? I've never actually had anyone put sweetrolls as part of the main course. Of course, I usually just don't get sweetrolls. Is it a common practice? "
Spako asks. Odd how That crow, as rude as it is, hasn't even tried to leave Garrett's shoulder. He's not sure how far it can go, but he's fairly sure the bird can move its legs and wings of its own free will. Maybe it's just scared. Heh. That'll make it mad if he asks.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Honestly, Niara was expecting something a bit more... theatrical, and so is somewhat surprised when she begins glowing. The drone is watching the ceremony with close scrutiny.
Once the unlocking is complete, Niara stand there for a good few moments. 'I don't feel any... do I feel any different?' she asks herself, pausing to figure out if and how she feels changed.Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
'Hey!'
Niara was not expecting that. She puts an arm up to block, still clutching her wine glass in her hand. Fortunately it's empty.
Niara's drone takes the punch as an act of aggression! The metal petals fold inwards and the red sensor glows, illuminating a small spot on Caelynn's forehead. One would suspect it's about to do something painful to her...
...but it sees Caelynn's punch glance off! Niara was also not expecting that. 'How... does that even work?' She lowers her arm and breathes out heavily. 'Ugh, I really don't understand magic.'Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
'And quite effectively, at that.' Niara tries to imagine the sort of force that would be required to break through her aura, and concludes that it is a reasonable amount. 'And what about my semblance? Is there a particular way I have to concentrate to use it, or...'
The drone has returned to it's observing state, now fixated quite intently on Caelynn.Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

"Oh, well, sure, go ahead and order some. I'll give it a try. I miss Uma's baking." he says. Having five trained chefs on his ship had been rather nice.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Niara looks up at Caelynn and raises her hand, pointing at her. 'Wait, no, that would be foolish of me,' She says, quickly looking around for a suitable test subject. Wouldn't want to do something untoward to her new friend, now would she?
The wine glass in her hand looks to be a viable candidate. She places it on the bar, hops off her seat, and takes a couple of steps back.
'I'm not sure what I'm hoping for, but let's see now.' Her brow furrows again as a look of concentration spreads over her face. And then, after a few seconds...
...nothing happens!
A little disappointing. 'Perhaps my power is something a bit more passive,' she concludes, still glaring at the wine glass intently.Last edited by Baeleck; 2014-01-18 at 09:49 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
"Thanks again, Spako," Garrett makes an order and continues watching the ladies with moderate interest.
"Funny, I'd have thought you swing for the other team."
"Would it matter?"

But he's got a point, you know. Doesn't really matter for a number of reasons. 'Course, it's all the same to me. Not into mammals."

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Niara nods. 'That must be it. I suppose it'll be a surprise for when I most need it.'
The wine glass gets to live another day. Hoorah! Said wine glass is presented to the barkeeper to be refilled. 'Another, please,' she says.
Garrett's interest has not gone unnoticed, as he soon finds the drone inspecting him from a distance, much in the same way as it inspected Caelynn earlier.Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
"What? I was agreeing with you. Oh, I'm sorry. Got separated? Wouldn't really know, aren't many lady kobolds around. Except the one that was a succubus and the third cook on the ship, but that never really went anywhere. I was never sure why she didn't just change into something with more broad appeal. Never actually made a move on me even though she had that shape. But I'm rambling and the rolls are here. So uh, yeah."

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
"I...I'm not comfortable talking 'bout it, sorry," Garrett rubs the vicious scars on his neck without noticing or meaning to and his eyes get a little wet.
He reaches for a honey roll, is about to take a bite, and then sees the drone and waves.
"Oh, hoi."

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Spako just nods. Garrett can probably tell that he feels terrible about stepping on another of Garrett's landmines. He doesn't want to say any more right now, and is content to just gorge himself on his half of the rolls and the last of his bamhacon.
Oh, and the cards in Garrett's pocket (assuming he hasn't hidden their presence) likely only come up as subtly magic, and not the bright, powerful magic aura of the full Deck.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
'Indeed, let's hope so.' Niara tips back her glass and takes a good gulp of wine. The end of her nose is beginning to get a little pink already. 'I suppose I should thank you for this gift so... uh, yes, thank you Caelynn.' She beams.
The drone responds with some generic buzzing noise. Or maybe it's just buzzing anyway. Who knows. Whatever the case, Niara takes a brief glance over her shoulder and waves back.Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Garrett puts the roll down and shrinks in his seat. He was bad with girls even before he left society for a long while. That, and he feels bad about making Spako feel bad.
The crow pecks at Garrett's ear and taunts him about his awkwardness in hoarse whispers.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Spako's wings twitch in irritation. Like hell he's going to get beaten out in motivation by some jack*** corvid.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
'I'm sure my aura will prove very useful in my line of work,' she declares, still grinning.
Upon seeing Garrett's reaction, Niara giggles. Which, whilst being exceptionally out of character for someone just old enough to be Garrett's mother, probably isn't very helpful in inspiring confidence in the boy. It must be the wine taking it's toll, she supposes, as she takes yet another gulp. Her constitution was never her strong point.Active Nexus Characters: Urias Starsailor

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Spako stands up in his chair, and says forcefully (but not very loudly).
"Garrett, I am a two and a half foot tall winged lizard-man, and you're a human at least twice that size and way more power. Now, show a little of that focus and discipline you've talked about and stop getting tongue-tied by the first female to blink at your direction. "Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXLVII
Niara stifles her amusement for the time being, instead relaxing in her seat and taking long sips from her glass. The boy reminded her of her brother at that age.
