Re: [Nexus] AMEN XLIV: Beware Falling Flowers
Zefir's Door -> Cybil's Room
"Alright." She turns to a nearby Mecha-Panther.
"Seal it up. I don't want anything ever opening that door again." Ilpholin says, directing it to use it'ssuper glueliquid cement to cover the door copiously.
She then heads off. She actually has business to deal with and this childish behavior of Zefir's is wasteful.
Ilpholin heads to where Cybil is staying, looking for her. She's long overdue for a visit to Riverside.Last edited by Reinholdt; 2012-06-26 at 12:57 PM.

Well there won't be anyone who wants to get out here either way. Zefir has something more worth to hide. Good that all the cams in this room are dead or not working anymore.Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

Re: [Nexus] AMEN XLIV: Beware Falling Flowers
[Ilpholin's Office - The Hatteress]
"That's a satisfactory exegesis of what crafts the classification 'starfighters' encompasses, I suppose."
The Hatteress dispassionately affirms, nodding softly in compliance with the attributes that she deems comprise a relaxed nod. Ilphy's perspicacity of Roxanne's time seems, to Roxanne, limited thanks to the concrete disconnect between their reputed tech levels or, for a more pinpoint isolation of what Roxanne believes to be the issue, a disjunction in the names of terms referring to specified technological items. She doubts that the average Nexusian's vernacular endorses cumbersome words that could never roll off the tongue regardless of how often practiced they were or are. Tachyon pulses are probably called subspace communications or something by the general populace of this realm, she thinks.
"I do have a starfighter, yes. I stowed it a kilometer or two from this location when I first arrived. The Hatter and I have been working on replicating organic ships I've smeared into the crust of planets via deceleration trauma, so those will be at our disposal once we're sure they're tolerably safe to release. They're tiny, but they're at least on par with their larger counterparts."
-------
[Main Room]
"Um..."
That was weird. Very, very weird, in fact. There's no question in Clarissa's mind that Zefir has serious, serious mental problems. Yes. She'll need to sort those out too. Can't have him running around goring unicorns and stepping on magical gnomes and all their supernatural kin. Wanton destruction and bloody slaughter is all well and good, until it becomes an obsession. Addiction obfuscates the mind's view of a situation, and then people start slipping up...
And no good can come out of someone slipping up in this particular profession.
"Yeah..."
"You indubitably need surgery to cure your illness. A dash of head shrinking might not hurt either, but that's a job that we'll need to rope a Psychonaut into if we want it done right."
"Why are you not comfortable going under the knife here? Would you rather have a stranger restore you to your previous state? That'd be easier on me, and I'll tag along with you if you are dead set on trying out this new clinic you mentioned, but they probably won't let me scrub in to operate on you. Their methods might be unfavorably prolific or outlandish too. I've never thought that scar tissue was attractive, and I can't guarantee that you'll even be alive when they finish with you if they prohibit me from patching you up myself."
Clarissa, ruminating on this matter as she is, soberly rubs the back of her head and then proceeds to shrug dismissively. She wouldn't ever give her consent to letting a complete stranger repair her physical form. Then again, Zefir's body is his own to do with as he pleases, so this choice on where the operation should take place isn't her's to make.

Re: [Nexus] AMEN XLIV: Beware Falling Flowers
There aren't any cameras in members rooms that they didn't place there themselves. So if Zefir put a bunch of cameras in his room and killed them... well good for him I guess.
Cybil's Room
"I wanted to let you know that I wish to go to Riverside soon and meet with your boss. If you need a few minutes to get ready, that's fine." She has to drop by the Biolab real quick and have a gnoll lead Megan to their village. But if Cybil's ready to go now, then now they can go.
[Ilpholin's Office - The Hatteress]
"Would you be capable of training others to use starfighters or is that out of reach?" You'd need to be in space and have some giant starfighter carrier or something to learn those Ilph imagines.

Re: [Nexus] AMEN XLIV: Beware Falling Flowers
Privacy! Woohoo!
[Ilpholin's Office - The Hatteress]
Roxanne nods thrice in response! *Nodnodnod!*
"Yeah. I'm able do that. That's an easily attainable objective, actually. I'll just need to commission a couple of sim chambers from Kohan, see. He'll probably let me borrow them for awhile. Gives me yards of leeway in terms of personal property, he does."
Probably because they're related in that they're alt-universe copies of one another!
"Then we'll need to manufacture a fleet of ships for the cadets to make use of. Mechanical ones. Don't think the organics would take to newcomers so quickly."
------
[Main Room]
Able to rule all? Like, the one ring to rule them all! Neato! The precious! I must has the precious!
The variable of Clarissa's sanity has been struck out of the equation in her mind. Indeed, she may have mental problems, but it isn't like she'd be the one tinkering with Zefir's mind were psychic aid enlisted for this project.
"Really, Zefir?"
Clarissa chortles.
"Did you think that I, Clarissa, could wave my magic wand and suddenly, poof, you'd be returned to your initial state? I could probably try, but where's the fun in that?"
Clarissa shakes her head from side to side mirthfully. She might be toying with Zefir, but she's certainly abiding by an unshakable law of this world. You can't get something for nothing. Not under normal circumstances among miserly people, anyway.
"And it isn't like that'd be monotonously easy peasy lemon squeezy for me either. We could try dispelling the magic and working on whittling down its effects to dna alone, but when I'm tweaking your dna, I don't want to use my own personal brand of magic. Sure, it would probably turn you back into the Zefir I knew before your accident, kind of, but something else might go awry and you could end up with what could be considered a societal taboo to some. If you're okay with, say, craving human flesh for the remainder of your life or perhaps sprouting a set of extra arms, we could try to solve your problem with my chaotic magic! Otherwise, you need surgery."
Clarissa's magical gifts always seem to have a corrupting side-effect accompanying them to be resisted in one way or another.

Zefir looks at her. mainly annoyed or angry, hard to say. Then he close his eyes and sights.
"You could have told me that you don't have a way."
Ok that doesn't sound true but well Zefir has his reasons.

Re: [Nexus] AMEN XLIV: Beware Falling Flowers
[Outside Ilpholin's Office (Split Timeline)]
A tall figure, covered in scales that seem to be made of emerald and smoke-blackened steel, with a face the seems to be a mixture of a human's and a wolf's, with a crocodilian mouth, and a curling nest of wickedly sharp, barbed, horns in place of hair, stands here. Sprouting from their back is a mass of spined tentacles with hooked beaks, and their hands - one of which, unless there's some other obvious method of gaining the attention of the office's occupant, goes to knock on the door - bear long, curved, claws.
Accompanying said figure are what, to a casual observer, appear to be massive, hairless, grey-skinned, humans, in long dark green coats, over crimson suits, though on closer examination, their skin is the wrong texture, more like mud, and their eyes are highly polished pieces of jet.

"Who is Kohan?"
She doesn't believe Roxanne has brought him up before.

"I see no reason to bring him into it." Ilpholin says. Any more than necessary anyways. Rot was missing and that wasn't a good thing for anyone.
Ilpholin's Office - Crocodile Karyna?
The door swings open on its own as Ilpholin sits behind a desk. The room only has two other chairs in it and while they are tail friendly, they might be problematic to back tentacles.
"Come in."
Of course, if this isn't Karyna and her posse, one wonders how they got in the building so easily, without so much as an attempt to walk in the front door.

Re: [Nexus] AMEN XLIV: Beware Falling Flowers

... Meh? What? That's not what Clarissa thought she had said at all! Maybe something was lost in translation? Humans tend to be so darn finicky about their language, so a slight curl of the tongue where one isn't meant to be could distort the entire message she was attempting to pass on.
"Uh-huh. Listen, I don't mean to seem boastful or pretentious but I can and am willing to fix you, erm, somewhat. You aren't making this a very simple task for anyone in their right mind to accomplish. You offer no genetic base from which to replicate your body. You won't let anyone operate on you to ascertain what your original dna sequences were. You desire a magical panacea to 'cure' you of your 'disease' yet you crassly snub magic users."
"With those faults and condemnations in mind, I'm predisposed to think that you won't find someone who can mend you. After all, if you aren't willing to be healed, who can help you?"

[Ilpholin's Office - The Hatteress]
Woah! Oops! Did Roxanne accidentally let The Hatter's real name slip out of her mouth right there? Really? Uh-oh! She didn't mean to do that!
"Uh, Kohan is The Hatter's real name. It is moniker he prefers to go by in public when not strictly involved in AMEN business. Um, you probably shouldn't mention to him that you know it. He isn't aware of the fact that a handful of people are actually aware of his birth name."
