"You've, uh, got the wrong girl." Sekhmet protests. She's a scholar, sure, but not a fighter. Her will isn't particularly strong, Jimothy can definitely read her mind. She's scared, but curious at the same time.Awesome avatar (Kothar, paladin of Tlacua) by Linkele!

Ironoak Cabin - Father & Son
Pathfinder gives a chuckle and picks up Tuskfang to set him on his lap so he can hug his son. "I am very much real and not a spirit, yes. And neither are you. But Great Spirits sometimes make bodies of their own to wander the realms in. Your grandma and grandpa do so frequently and on one occasion gave birth to your uncle and I. It means that we are truly Wolfen, but the power of Spirits flows through us and you. What you do with it however, is up to you to decide and nurture."
Outside the Infirmary
That thought makes Mintaka pause and think. "Well, yes, this place is well and alive which is why I wanted samples from it. Especially since there's simply so much wonderful diversity. It does tend to lean into the carbon-based end rather heavily though." She points out before shrugging and looking up at the sun with her eyes closed to let her face bask in the warm light. "I'll have to take a look at the island to decide what plants to seed there. And it will depend on whether you want something edible or material producing."

Jimothy's smile goes from almost creepy to supportive. "What do you mean I've got the wrong girl? I could've chosen from who knows how many creatures in this realm, but I chose you." Quick as a flash, Jimothy moves to circle the three quarters of the cabin Sekhmet isn't in. Two arms appear just underneath his head, and he rests his head in his hands. "Do you really think that was a mistake, seeing my powers and knowledge about this realm? You are a fighter, believe me." Technically it was random, not a mistake, but that's enough for Jimothy.After 2 years of silence, I reappear!

Asher points at her frowning face as an example. "You frown a lot. S-So serious. Why?" He inquires again, wondering what it'd take to make her smile. "I'm sure y-you have a cute smile..." Why wouldn't he want everyone to be happy?
[Daycare Dark Room]
Karasu senses that not everything she said got through, so points at the ground and creates more pictograms. The flinch at the monsters piques Karasu's curiosity, especially as Ruth'd told her about the lab monsters she fought.
But first, clearing up communication issues. The pictograms show Sasha using her shadows to talk back in lieu of actually speaking, while Karasu narrates. "I want you to talk to me with your shadows. What if you need something, are you just gonna stare until they figure it out? For instance, tell me about yourself. Show me who Sasha is." At the last part, her shadows show Sasha using her shadows to 'talk' about herself.
Then she again shows them both being 'friends', only this time a monster tries to sneak up on Sasha but Karasu stops it, trying to show that she's an ally.Purple Eagle's character list

Jimothy studies Sekhmet for a moment. "I would've thought someone with your knowledge would know that not all fighting has to be physical." Looking around the room and trying to find the source of the feeling of being watched, Jimothy fails and mentally shrugs it off. "After all, a battle of wits isn't called a 'battle' for nothing."After 2 years of silence, I reappear!

"Uh, I guess." Sekhmet isn't quite sure she follows Jimothy's logic. "Why do you need, uh, a priest? What would I, uh, have to do?" She's not sold on the idea. She has a few questions first, including one Jimothy should be able to read from her mind even if she hasn't said it aloud yet, "What do I get in exchange?"Awesome avatar (Kothar, paladin of Tlacua) by Linkele!

Sasha decides the person in front of her is very strange indeed. Need something? What could she possibly need? She has no needs. Only her Master's wishes, which she fulfills just fine without talking. Indeed, that is the Master's preference. And Karasu wants the shadows to show her who Sasha is? But... Sasha's literally right there. Maybe Karasu can't see as well in the dark as Sasha thought.
Adults were weird.
Sasha figures it won't hurt to try at least. As she continued to stare unblinkingly at Karasu, two shadow tendrils rise up from the floor, one on each side of Sasha. They rise and rise, growing taller and taller, until they become even bigger than the relatively small shadow girl who controls them. Bending and twisting, they cross above Sasha, reaching for each other until they entwine in the middle. Thus creating the perfect boxed frame of shadows for Sasha as she stands under the arch.
There she is. Sasha.

"I require a priest because I can't be expected to do all of the things I need done, now can I? Can't exactly be in two places at once, though I would love to. All you would have to do is a few odd jobs I need done, as well as anything else you would like to do for me. You needn't worry about what you'll get in return, I have a few things I can give you, such as workers, magical boons, etcetera."

"I, uh, I don't know." Sekhmet's not to sure about this. She doesn't really trust the entity who appeared out of nowhere in her cabin, while she was asleep. Besides, she doesn't need workers, although magical power would be nice, but she has that already too.Last edited by bc56; 2019-09-23 at 04:59 PM.

"No, uh, I really shouldn't." Sekhmet shifts nervously in the chair. Judging by the looks of this thing, the workers are probably hideous monstrosities themselves. "I have work of my own already."

Re: GLoG 92: Generosity, Love, Opportunity, Growth
Reelshka and Tuskfang will eventually get pointed to the tavern by a suspicious looking dwarf. The looks have abated a little but there are still a lot of dwarves who are clearly uncomfortable with this whole arrangement. They'll find the tavern relatively packed - must be break time - with Utost at the bar with his two children sitting next to him. They each holding a mug and Utost is talking to a dwarf that Reelshka will recognise (and Tuskfang might too) as the one that was so rude to her the first time they came down to look at the animals.

The alien gives a nod at the advice and just lays back on the ground, stomach up towards the sun so she can bask in its light. "They don't really appear there naturally together, but my partners and I have been able to strike a balance on a few worlds. It takes a lot of care and thought, but it is possible. It just might not be a form of life you can recognize as life. I can grow plants on that island that filter excessive metals in the soil and water into seeds for example. You'd be amazed at how much metal is in lake or ocean water."

"Your mother knows, yes. Other than you, your mother, and I, there's only a few others that know however. It is a family secret." Pathfinder explains. "But whatever you choose to do with this gift, how you choose to nurture it now that you know, it is up to you."

Reelshka deals with all the suspicious glares with a pleasant, polite smile. She has long since learned the art of bulldozing through rude and bigoted people by staying perfectly polite, relentlessly stubborn and grievously passive-aggressive. He heads straight towards Utost and the others when she walks into the tavern.
"Here we are. Hello, everyone," she says pleasantly.
"Hi Endok! Hi Olon!" Tuskfang greets his friends.
[Ironoak Cabin]
"Yeah, I bet aunt Renetta knows too," Tuskfang deduces. "And Flamecrest! Is Flamecrest like me?" He then frowns in deep concentration. "I can see and touch spirits. I dunno what else I'd like to do. I'm gonna have to think."
Meanwhile, Pathfinder will no doubt recognize the sound and smell of Reelshka arriving, and headed their way. The goblin is soon to arrive, looking at her mate and son a little quizzically.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

[by the lake]
Melissa sits on the lake's shore, staring out into it.
Just listening to the sound of the wind howling through the forest and stirring up the lake is pretty relaxing. The way the clouds make a chiaroscuro effect across nature, and the way the trees blow around, and everything else.
She takes a strand of her blonde hair and tucks it behind her ear, to keep it from blowing in front of her face.
Being here is enjoyable.
She takes off her shoes and socks and then straightens her legs so her feet can dip into the cold water.Favorite sports:

"I don't really see that working out here. The place is too unstable already."
Anchor says, shaking her head.
"They just grow the metal out of the water and into the plants? Huh. I never would have thought of something like that. But if they're still plants with seeds, they can't be too strange, I mean. Anyway, once your ship is here, we can go take a look at the island together and see what'll fit."

Tuskfang! Endok cries out, holding up his drink in greeting. Olon and Endok both get up and head over. I heard you were getting a pet! But dad didn't know if it was a surprise or not so I'm not supposed to say what it is. Olon leans in close to Tuskfang and whispers to him. It's super cute. She confides.
Hey Reelshka. This is Taguz, I think you met before? She's our head animal trainer and butcher. They are inextricably linked. Taguz for her part raises her tankard to Reelshka cautiously. Let me get you and Tuskfang a drink. He adds, reaching over the bar and grabbing out a pair of tankards, looking carefully at the available barrels. Goblins drink... sewer brew? Surely that's just for lack of better options right? They're friends, break out the good stuff. Whip wine it is.
Reelshka will be handed two tankards of wine with a tart, complex flavour. A lot of subtleties that she'll likely miss not being a connoisseur of dwarven alcohol but it is very tasty. Also quite alcoholic but it's masked very well.Last edited by billtodamax; 2019-09-27 at 12:00 AM.

Tuskfang's eyes go wide. A surprise pet! And he's a cute one! Before he can prattle on about it, though, a metal mug is placed in front of him. He looks up at his mom, who is looking rather awkward.

The workers are indeed hideous monstrosities.
Jimothy smiles knowingly. "Of course someone as talented as you would already have work. I'm not asking you to leave that work behind. Being my priest would not take up too much of your time, you'd just have to do an odd job for me every once in a while. Who knows, you might find something for your golems while you're doing the jobs for me." Nice job blowing the cover on your mind reading abilities, Jimothy. It would appear that either Sekhmet is going to have to find a way to end the conversation, or somebody else is going to have to show up.After 2 years of silence, I reappear!

Jimothy gasps. "Oh yeah! Forgot to mention that I've been reading your mind. Sorry." He shrinks down to the size of a snake, but his voice is no quieter. "Since you have such good manners, I'll leave you alone for now, but know that I'll be back. Maybe next time you'll agree." He turns back to his normal size, but he's abandoned his snake-like body for a massive spring. His ever-smiling head is still there, however. "Pellinta nehel skiimer!" he says in a voice that suggests it's a goodbye. The spring coils up, then launches at the ceiling as Jimothy tries to bust out of the cabin.After 2 years of silence, I reappear!

"I'm five! But mom says I won't grow a beard until I'm much older. Goblins don't usually have beards unless they've very old but I'm a woblin so it could happen," Tuskfang says rather quickly, with a big grin. Reelshka, meanwhile, looks unsure. Best to make some things clear before it gets even more awkward.
