Re: [Nexus] Home 10
[Talnissa's]
((It's a metal shell (with powered joints) over her arm, terminating in a large, forward-facing, round shield, in the center of which is the opening of a rifle barrel. The ammunition is fed into the barrel, which runs the length of the shell, from a thicker point at the shoulder which contains a twenty round magazine, or, if her arm is bent, it splits, and instead uses a ten round one and a second chamber near the elbow, both of which only engage when her arm is bent.))

Or at least, she's not one of them that''s foolish enough to attack someone who's lived twelve thousand years without aging, has all sorts of magical abilities, and various physical modifications - most notable of which is that half her body is nanotech, and thus can form armor, weapons, and other such things. And on top of all that, she has proof that she's not as tough, since Tium has already beaten her once. Spec could still be quite insane, but insane in a way that's smart enough to recognize that she'd very likely die quite fast if she attacked the immortal.

Kara picks up the modified weapon, and tests it for weight and balance, grinning.

It's heavy, certainly, since the metal has to be fairly thick for safety reasons, but not unusable. As for the balance, it's fairly good, though the shield makes it a bit front-heavy.

"Through here," Talnissa says, nodding, and heading for a door on the other side of the living room.
If Kara follows her in, she'll find that beyond the door a rather large room, with various types (dogs, humans, and trolls, predominate, but there's quite a selection) of targets, all made of ballistics gel and artificial bone (some also have simulated skins, if the resistance it provides is different than human, and there are also a number in various types of clothing and armor), all set up at different distances.

Kara does indeed follow, and blinks in surprise as she takes in the target range!
And grins.
"Any particular target I should aim for first?"

Re: [Nexus] Home 10
[Talnissa's]
The weapon itself is quite accurate, and trolls fairly large, so as long as she's a reasonable shot, she should be able to get a decent number of hits, with how many being entirely dependent on her skill. It also has less recoil than one might expect, so she shouldn't have to re-aim between shots.
Assuming she does, she'll find that the rounds go through the target's sim-hide quite easily, though how far they get once they do isn't clear from where the pair are.

Mithar Keep-library
"You'll have plenty of here if you're staying a while, that's for sure. This place is utterly chaotic, it's hard to find any patterns at all besides from what I could describe as dramatic ones. I heard that Grace, a woman I know had started some sort of research about it, fascinating really. I myself have pretty much given up as the energy here appears to from several different systems." Cessie explains as they end up in the kitchen.
Harnel would be here as I'm not sure who else would cook the dinner. <.<
[Mithar Keep - Bedroom]
Cessie was close to panicking there for a second before she feels her husbands hand touch hers and slowly grows calmer. She remembered way too much of that dream, she never did otherwise besides the ones she had with Aegnor and Harnel.
This one had been completely different though, she had been someone else, Ilpholin? It didn't make any sense, why had she done all those things?
It felt like she really needed to vent that experience but not right now. Instead she gently squeezes Harnel's hand and snuggles up closer to him, running her other hand against his scaled shoulder as she once again closes her eyes and falls asleep next to him.
The next morning didn't feel as good however, probably due the morning sickness, bleh. Now sure if Harnel is awake or not yet however.
Mithar Keep - Kashi
He understands common? But he can't speak it eh?
The mage just gives the dragon a brief glance before heading off to the library. "Can you watch over him a moment while I try to find out what he is? I'll be back as soon as I can." She tells Harnel before getting up to the library (flying once again) and consulting her books. If she find more information about Kashi is up to Slii.

[Mithar Keep - Kitchen]
As the women come towards the kitchen, they'll be able to catch the scent of cooking hamburger. It would appear that Harnel is cooking something, indeed. what though? A ground beef skillet dinner, laden with wonderful spices and flavors.
He's humming nonchalantly as he cooks, thinking to himself. He was going to take the food up to Cessie in the library when it was finished, but it seems she's come down to him. He's wearing one of his robes at the moment
[Mithar Keep - Bedroom]
Harnel will have woken up by this point, but be content to simply wait while Cessie woke up.
"Good morning, beautiful," He says groggily "How are you feeling?"
[Mithar Keep - Kashi]
Harnel sighs and will go to sit in the doorway to Kashi's room, sitting against it. He doesn't really want to watch Kashi, instead intending to continue delivering gifts, but apparently Cessie had other ides.If You need me to post somewhere, drop me a message, please

Re: [Nexus] Home 10
Silver Ship
Jakob sighs when Jenna ignores his suggestion and bends to the ground, letting the legionmind sliver slip off his shoulder and follow her as well.
"Jakob will deal with axe himself then. Will meet Newqueen wherever she finds suitable for hive." Aberration or not Jakob is still connected to the hive, and will be able to find her after he completes his self appointed task.
As quickly as he can his three claws dig a trench next to Bloodlust, hauling up heaps of earth and rock until he has a hole a few feet deep. Then, cutting deep into the ground around the axe, he levers his arms into the slab of earth he has created and flips it over into the hole without touching Bloodlust again.
He'll spread the rest of the dirt he's dug up around, flattening it out to conceal it among the rest of the torn up field.
This takes him around an hour since he's being cautious, and if the SETs wish to speak with him during this time then he's welcome to it.
"Is not best solution, but will do for now." He grumbles to himself.
Mithar Keep - Kashi
Cessie won't be able to find much on Kashi if she sticks to looking for dragon breeds. While on the outside he appears to be an Asiatic bronze dragon, a mildly intelligent breed noted for their good humor, there isn't any mention of them being able to produce gold on their own. Some of the measurements in there match his, and should give her a good idea of the size he'll be when fully grown.
He will be rather large at 20ft long and 4ft high at the shoulder, but not so big he won't be able to fit through doors. Normal Asiatic bronzes don't grow this rapidly either, which should be another clue something is off about the beast.
Kashi himself, bored at sulking about how mean Cessie was, will slip off the bed and go over to Harnel. Unless the half dragon stops him the little dragon will dip his head down and try to grab hold of one of Harnel's fingers in his teeth.
There's a gleam in his eyes, and Harnel might deduce that he wants to play.Last edited by Slii Arhem; 2011-12-22 at 09:59 AM.

Mithar Keep - Kitchen
Kirin will bring her backpack along, listening intently. When she reaches the door, she will stop and inhale deeply though her nose. Delicious.
She steps back, clearly motioning for Cessie to go first. She doesn't know the guy, anyway. It seems like she didn't even see Harnel, she was so busy enjoying the aromatic effects of his efforts.
Silvery Ship
Jakob will be interrupted shortly by a ten foot tall silvery robot with a large canister. Unless stopped, the silvery robot will pick up Bloodlust and place it in the container. What's up with that? If successful, many spots on the container will turn blood red... like warning lights. What's up with that?

It's lucky at least one of them know how to cook, Cessie had never found any enjoyment in it so she had picked up just the right guy.
The sorceress appears to be in a rather good mood and as Kirin seem to focus on the food Cessie lovingly caresses her husbands tail as she pass him by and quietly whispers in his ear. "I love you." And with a quick peak on his shoulder she once again turns her attention towards the catgirl.
"...this is my husband Harnel Kirin." Looking slightly embarrassed as the catgirl didn't seem as focused at the food as she once previously though. Turning back to Harnel her cheeks are clearly flushed. "This is Kirin, she just ended up in the nexus due an unexplained phenomena, like the one that brought you here." She explains.
[Mithar Keep - Bedroom]
"Sick and sore." She says with a sigh, not real feeling up to leave the bed at the moment. "I had this very strange and vivid dream about Ilpholin. I can't understand it." And how will Harnel decipher this I wonder?
[Mithar Keep - Kashi]
A bit disappointed she couldn't find anything, the mage returns to Harnel with the only book she could find. "He's an anomaly, some kind of mutant or a dragon not recorded in the books. He seem to share characteristics with the Asiatic bronze dragon though but I can only guess." She declares once she enters the room.
"Perhaps I could trace some magic from him?" She attempts to see if there is some sort of enchantment over the dragon which could cause the produced gems.

Re: [Nexus] Home 10

Harnel's tail twitches when Cessie caresses it, and he turns to grin at Cessie, whispering "I love you too," to her.
"Hi there, Kirin," he says, looking over at the catgirl appraisingly. The first thing he notices is that she's malnourished, "You'll be joining us for lunch then."
This is not a question. His tone brooks no argument.
[Mithar Keep - Bedroom]
"... what happened in the dream?" Harnel asks, still groggy, but he's definitely listening.Last edited by Halae; 2011-12-22 at 04:37 PM.

"Mm, not that you'd mind." Adir teases, thinking precisely what she's thinking. The stag tries to sit up, perhaps sitting against a tree, mostly so he can hold Sakura properly. And kiss her properly, for that matter. He studies her eyes and begins to speak, albeit hesitantly. "That is what you want, right? More kids?"

Kirin smiles. "It's nice to meet you! And, yes, I would love to have some dinner if you will have me."
A slight pause.
"Um, excuse me, but what are you? I don't think there's anything like you where I come from. I mean... Nothing I know of anyway... Are you an anthropomorphic drake?"

"I was Ilpholin and she was doing the most despicable things since she was mocked and scorned by her peers. It was strange... it was just as if I were doing it. Like I could understand her perfectly." Cessie explain slowly as she decides to sit up. She does it a bit too fast however and is rewarded with a headache. *groan*
[Mithar Keep - Kitchen]
Ceisse quietly sits down for breakfast, hoping that she won't embarrass herself any further in front of Kirin. But by the sound of it, the catgirl were making a fiasco of herself as well.
She have a deep seated desire to correct her, but she was going to let Harnel do it this time.

Re: [Nexus] Home 10
[Fettina's Suite]
Evan puts on a light smile for Tina, but it's obviously forced. If he was a girl, he'd honestly probably be crying right now, if the look on his face is any indication. "It's nothing. You just... you're really lucky to have sisters."
[Mithar Keep - Bedroom]
Harnel rolls his eyes and places his arms on Cessie's shoulders, guiding her back down into the bed, "You're staying here. if you're feeling sick, tired, whatever, you stay in bed, end of discussion," he smiles, "I'll get you everything you need, so for now, just relax and rest."
He'll sit up, and move out of the bed, making sure that Cessie is covered by the blankets as he does. After a moment he says, "You know, it's never occurred to me to ask when your birthday is."
[Mithar Keep - Kashi]
"I don't see a problem with it myself," Harnel says, "You'll need to ask Kashi though. I can translate for you if you need me to, but he's intelligent enough that his opinion should be asked, I think." Harnel certainly would want people scanning him without permission.
[Mithar Keep - Kitchen]
Harnel's brow furrows. It's clear he's insulted, even though he's attempting to hide it, "Uh, no. My mother was a dragon and my father was a human. I'm just a half-breed."
He starts dishing out a trio of plates. He made extra because he likes to indulge sometimes, but all of that goes straight to Kirin, seeing as she's apparently underfed.If You need me to post somewhere, drop me a message, please

Re: [Nexus] Home 10
Silver Ship
Jakob nods respectfully to the robot with one of his four heads, and begins to head in the direction he can sense the rest of the hive moving in. Since the robot interrupted him in his task early, it won't be long before he catches up.
Even so, he's in no rush, so his easy pace means he won't rejoin the hive until they've reached a cave entrance in the mountains. Along the way he marvels at his new form, his tails allowing him greater stability than the topheavy bodies he used to construct for himself. His is now a body built only for war.
This pleases him to no end.
Mithar Keep - Kashi
Kashi listens in on the conversation and ponders. He isn't exactly sure what magic is, but it can't hurt right? Maybe Cessie can be his friend after she finds out what he is!
"Snyyuuu~! <Okay! Yeah! Let's do it now!>"
It seems he forgot all about being mad at Cessie, or trying to play with Harnel. There's magic to be had, and he wants it all.Julie, everyone's nth favorite succubus, by Gulaghar.

Re: [Nexus] Home 10

"Oh. Sorry."
Kirin will accept the food, and eat it quickly and politely. Yes, it is possible. She's had a lot of experience. When her plate is empty, she will speak again.
"I think the dragons where I come from must be different than yours, because dragons where I come from... well... I've heard some theories. My favorite is that they're malfunctioning Ullen technology posessed by a bestial spirit. I've never actually seen any, mind you. Only heard the stories and seen pictures."
Silvery Ship
The bot will take the container containing Bloodlust into the ship. The door will seal behind it, after all the slivers have left. This may have future ramifications...
But right now it means that the Queen and Jakob and all them can leave without being scanned by the alien scientists. So that is good.Last edited by Lost_Deep; 2011-12-22 at 09:58 PM.

"But it felt important." Cessie protests, not really wanting to dismiss the dream so easily. "As for my birthday it's during Arnus the third. That's a bit from now though in case you're wondering. But still, it was an important dream."
[Mithar Keep - Kashi]
Assuming Harnel translates this, the mage get's working
"Let's see then..." And Cessie will attempt to discern if the dragon have any enchantments upon him with her magic.

"Dragons from my world are long since extinct but they were the guardians between the spirit world and the terrestrial world as I understand it." Cessie replies as she sits down to eat as well. She was pretty hungry too after all, she was that a lot these days. "Harnel isn't from my world however, we meet by a lucky coincidence here in the nexus."

Sakura tilts her head up at him, looking faintly surprised. She hadn't expected him to be the one to bring up that topic. "Yeah, I do. I mean, we obviously don't have to worry about that for a while, but it's something I want." She smiles hesitantly. "What do you think?"

Tina looks at him pensively, taking her eggs off the burner. She sets the spatula aside. "Oh." If Tina were more comfortable around emotional displays like this, she'd try to make him feel better. She's smart enough to figure the problem out, after all. It's just... she tends to goosestep around these issues. So she plays dumb, saying, "...You don't sound okay." Her dancing around the issue might be apparent in her speech or stance, the way she leans awkwardly to one side.

Maybe it's the drink, or the incredibly good mood he's in, but Adir nods vigorously. "I want more kids. I do. I mean, it can't change our lifestyle all that much..." He's going to remember saying that and laugh at how stupid he was, one day. "We should do it."My avatar was done by Gullara. Thanks again!
