Re: GLoG 92: Generosity, Love, Opportunity, Growth

Poor Needs. Trying so hard to be intelligible to everyone else, despite being more out of his mind than the usual Magtok standard.
Delilah really isn't well situated to parse him, compared to anyone who spends more frequent time with him. Which probably explains the confused look at his second comment and why she chooses to just...not really respond to it? Maybe she thinks it'll encourage more nonsense if she does.
"The book suggests a plan of some sort, which I am hoping doesn't amount to just 'let's try drugging the witch'. She has a friend? Or something? Whatever she's doing wasn't really accounted for much, we weren't sure how mortality was going to treat her."
Which then segues nicely into Affytok's musing...
"Ah, I think we might be better off on that front than you think. It doesn't look like we really want to be there in the middle of...that disaster, but if we can get things rolling quick enough here, maybe she'll be winded. Even if it's just a bit, that's more than I think we could hope for right away, just walking right into her stronghold. I know she's shooting for some sort of super ascension, but she isn't there yet and that looked like she was expending a lot of power. That doesn't seem like something that's just going to spring back into her reserves right away."
This is all important enough that she's forgotten entirely to be an insufferable jerk to everyone nearby!
"We just need to ensure that the city-side of things has bottled up the shapeshifting freaks and then snatch up a few heroic-leaning sword-arms to join in, I think.""Fear and creativity are conjoined twins."

It's not that they're watching the front gate, just that the entrance is pretty visible from a lot of the camp, and so someone comes out to investigate the new arrival.
That someone would be Anchor, a rather small human woman in sunglasses, a necklace of lion's teeth, a lab coat, and sandals. Her shadow doesn't quite look like her. She gives Leap a cautious wave.
"Welcome to the Good League of Good!"
...
Has she seen this spider-woman somewhere before?
Probably not. Wouldn't she remember where?

Gara droops to the ground, solely so she can get her claws onto her forehead in a very human expression despite her comparatively short front legs.
”It’s-it’s- I’m a Leviathan class dragon and I don’t know how to swim! It’s so embarrassing. And no, I can’t fly. No wings. Best I can do is make a really big bubble and hope it floats.” she admits.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

"I-I'd appreciate it if you kept the dragon thing, uh, to yourself? If you don't mind. For now anyway." Sylvie asks, hopping down from her chair with a little flutter of her wings.
Then she pauses and stares awkwardly at the ground for a moment.

"Are those people-sized bubbles?" Cheasadh wouldn't mind being in a people-sized bubble! Though if it floats off and then bursts it'd probably be a little bit dangerous and not a good idea.
She will go and join her sister in stroking Gara, trying to see how soft the fur is. "Yeah, babies have to learn how to walk and talk. At least you've got those down pat. Pookie hasn't figured out the talking yet." Pookie looks up when he's mentioned, and sees that Gara's getting all the fuss from the girls. Well, that's fine. No way is Pookie experienced enough to win against Gara. In fact, Pookie's not sure he has any moves that are effective against Dragon or Water types- and Gara's probably one if not both of those things.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

”Leviathan class means I’m supposed to be aquatic.” Gara moans, even as she’s pet.
If Cheasadh pets her on the chest, belly, or the back of her legs where her fur is, she will find that Gara’s fur is luxurious and soft, though her tail is more bristly.
”I’ve never made a bubble bigger than my head.” she admits.Last edited by Deathkeeper; 2019-05-01 at 02:40 PM.

"Oh, yeah. There's no way we're the most observant people here. Brinika's uncle is a wolf-person, so he's got a good sense of smell." So does Cheasadh, actually. Not as keen as a Wolfen's, at least at the moment- she could train it to get that good, though, and she's got a keener nose than Brinika.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

Gara flops onto her side, clearly for reasons wholly unrelated to the fact that it puts her soft lavender belly-fur open for the attention of the girls.

There's just a faint little sniffle from Sylvie when Sophie says that. Aww, look at what a little positive reinforcement does. "Uh, okay, well uh wheeen do I come back then?

Brinika doesn't wait long before giving Gara vigorous belly-rubs.
"Yeah, Uncle Pathfinder is really hard to sneak by. And he has spirits watching over the place. They're invisible, though. But don't worry, we won't make you look bad." She giggles.Last edited by Morty; 2019-05-02 at 01:04 PM.

Cheasadh giggles as Gara rolls over, taking the hint and giving the bubble-fox dragon a bellyrub. "Your fur's so soft, it's like the biggest, warmest teddy bear ever. Huh." Something's occurred to Cheasadh. "Is Pathfinder my uncle too, now? I've never had an uncle before. Not one I knew, anyway." Her father's family were just as evil as he was, but he didn't like them; they weren't as racist as he was. And her mother's family cut her off because of Cheasadh's father.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

”Well, Okay I guess. Magic spirits are cool. Hrm. I don’t really know much about magic for someone who works for a Hope goddess. I should ask Civvy to actually explain that some time.” Invisible sentries are definitely more militaristic than what Civvy seemed into, but Nurse was so powerful! Civvy must have some serious stuff in her realm too. Maybe it’s also invisible?Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

"Of course he's your uncle!" Brinika declares with gusto. "Aunt Reelshka is your aunt too now, and they're married, so that makes him your uncle. Just like Uncle Grimip is your uncle." Grimip is Tralka and Reelshka's brother. Cheasadh would have probably met him off-screen by now. "Is Civvy a goddess that you work for? I've met a goddess once. Well, two, really.

"I've not met an uncle before. My father's family were all in Riverside, and my mother's family wanted nothing to do with my father." Which Cheasadh now thinks is totally fair enough. "Aww, I've never met a goddess. How come you meet all the cool people?" Cheasadh, you've just met a pink fox-dragon. You meet cool people too.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

”Oh, Civvy only appeared to me once, as a human lady with bubblegum pink hair. There’s also Nurse, she was a pink fox lady with like, a bazillion tails. I don’t know what she actually counts as. But yeah I technically work for Civvy. She didn’t like, give me a title or anything but I guess if you work for a goddess you’re a cleric or something? I dunno. She didn’t really give me specific instructions.” Gara explains. Civvy had only really told her to spread good vibes and the essence of Pink.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

"It... does. But... My parents weren't nice people. Dad was a priest of a really bad god, and I was raised in His worship. A monster attacked, and my parents died. I was rescued, and was brought here, after a few stops. And... And I learnt that my Dad wasn't a nice man. He lied, and he was racist, and his god was... Unpleasant. I watched him kill people in his god's name." Which is a bit of a shock, given her youth. "Sophie and Reelshka and Jace all helped, Sophie got me talking to other clerics and priests to get me sorted. That helped, a lot. I've not joined any of them, or worshipped a god for years." This sounds perfect for Cheasadh, but she's cautious enough around religion she doesn't want to jump in without looking. She's kind-of done that before, and it got her told off a lot.
I don't know how much Brinika knows, but I don't think it's all of it- at least, not all of it from Cheasadh. Cheasadh's also very nervous, as she speaks. She's still not sure how Brinika will take it, let alone Gara that she's just met.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

"My name is Legion; for we are many. We act now," Needs insists, shaking his head as he dismisses the idea of recruiting people from the facestealer fighters outright. His brother has struck some bad deals and made some questionable decisions in the pursuit of power. Tenuous, fleeting, temporary power, which won't remain with us once this chapter of our lives is over. The Nexus public doesn't need to know about all of these things, and most of them, no matter the strength of their sword arms, are more likely to get in the way of The Plan than help bring it to fruition.
"It's time," Needs says to his wrist.
"You're talking about Operation Saint George?" asks a voice within his arm, another Magtok half a world away.
"Owner of a Lonely Heart, Roundabout, Starship Trooper," he answers plainly, tracing some runes in the air with his free hand as he waits for the admiral to decipher his meaning.
"What? Oh, song titles. Let me just look that up to be sure-" There's a brief pause, as the clone confirms that those songs are all by the same band. "Right, okay, I get it. I'll have everyone ready in-"
"Seven and one minutes, thirteen seconds."
"****, Needs. You're on all the magic right now, aren't you? Fine, eight minutes. I've got a lock on your coordinates, so get your **** together and make sure Magtok goes to bed on time." Needs taps a button on his wrist, ending the call, and then discards his prosthetic arm entirely, the whole thing turning to ash at his touch. It won't be needed where he's going, after all.

Gara looks at Cheasadh with pity, gently curling up to give Cheasadh the best approximation of a hug that her serpentine shape can provide. Brinika hopefully doesn’t mind getting caught up in that.
”Aww, you poor girl. Well, if you get permission from your mom I can introduce you to Civvy. I can go to her Realm whenever I want though I haven’t actually...done it yet.

Leap gives a wave in return and walks on over before turning and gesturing at the person-sized package on her abdomen. "I've got someone to drop off. Smuggler off of a transport ship and I've made something of a bargain to leave her here." She explains. The drider sounds a bit glum to be doing a good deed however, as if she really didn't want to be doing this. "She's probably going to need food and water and some medical attention as she's been unconscious for most of a day.
