(6:17:10 PM) Lioness: okay that was interesting
(6:17:21 PM) Seras: Apparently you are not allowed to be Phoenix.

(6:17:43 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: way ahead of you ;)
(6:18:59 PM) Seras has changed the topic to: Razor fingers cling | Piercing Demons sing | Twisting hollow Hell | Burning blisters swell | Sharp cut aching breath | Choking scent of death | Grueling jawbone grind | Cursed by my own mind.

(6:21:06 PM) Sparda is now known as Mister_Moonlight

(6:21:48 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Yep.
(6:21:52 PM) Dove: I did. :p
(6:21:55 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: I've not seen it

(6:23:05 PM) Dove: Logging has started for silliness.
(6:23:12 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: thanks
(6:23:13 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Just imagine this as an intro number to one of his concerts. >3
(6:24:08 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Also this is what you get from the unholy union of Morning Musume and The Takarazuka Revue.
(6:24:20 PM) Seras: that's at such a sharp contrast to my topic XD
(6:24:21 PM) Mister_Moonlight: ...This video is actually a way better version:

(6:24:36 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Isn't it great? =D
(6:24:43 PM) Seras: oh yes
(6:24:50 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: hehe cool
(6:25:01 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Moonlight is capable of all sorts of moods through his powers. He figures it's easier to sway cheerful minions than opressed ones. XD
(6:25:32 PM) Dove: Hehe.
(6:25:41 PM) Dove: Dove is more of....
(6:25:46 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Hence his living joyfully philosophy.
(6:26:00 PM) Seras: oh! Astra, did you listen to "As it Fades"?
(6:26:11 PM) Dove: Yes.
(6:26:24 PM) Seras: was it the right kind of melancholy?
(6:26:41 PM) Seras: I actually have another, more fitting song, but it's not on this computer, though I could TRY To download it
(6:26:48 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Phoenix has amusing potential to go obviously crazy with rage
(6:27:12 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Hehehehe.

(6:44:03 PM) Mister_Moonlight: I'm fine with it.
(6:44:04 PM) Seras: todays' episode contains: one (1) converted three-day old Exalt, one (1) huge leap in power for said Exalt, one (1) pile of Earth Mother imagery, and one(1) clever plan to return to Creation.
(6:44:20 PM) Mister_Moonlight: >3
(6:45:11 PM) Seras: Hellgame may not be suitable for servants of Heaven, and should not be taken while under the influence of Holy Effects.
(6:46:52 PM) Dove: xD
(6:46:57 PM) Mister_Moonlight: >3
(6:47:46 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: hehe
(6:49:02 PM) Seras: Hellgame is 100 proof evil.
(6:49:13 PM) Dove: Not really.
(6:49:18 PM) Dove: Only if you haven't seen evil.
(6:49:37 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: evil comes in different flavours
(6:49:39 PM) Seras: okay YOU make up a random nutrition fact about Hellgame =P
(6:50:13 PM) Seras: 100 proof, like alcohol. that means it's strong but quality =P
(6:50:20 PM) Reku_Avakaza: One serving of Hellgame grants your daily nutritional requirements of demoins.
(6:50:27 PM) Reku_Avakaza: There. :P
(6:50:46 PM) Seras: Hellgame is not a good source of calcium.
(6:55:40 PM) Seras: Svad just called, he's on his way
(6:55:53 PM) Dove: Yah!
(6:56:12 PM) Mister_Moonlight: =D
(6:58:29 PM) ***Reku_Avakaza spins idly

(7:00:17 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Infernal Exaltation is for life not just for Calibration
(7:00:28 PM) Dove: Seras playing a Drunk Yozi.
(7:00:55 PM) Seras: The Yozis do indeed get drunk on life.
(7:01:17 PM) Seras: oh Coors Light. you wish you had alcohol content.
(7:01:32 PM) ***Seras is pretending its a Blue Moon

(7:02:47 PM) Le_Squide [~Le_Squide@MagicStar-6F2C5EBA.hsd1.pa.comcast.net] entered the room.
(7:02:59 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: hey
(7:03:00 PM) Mister_Moonlight: =D
(7:03:14 PM) Reku_Avakaza: 'tis because of a hops shortage. The bigger compaines have a deal set up with the growers, so the microbreweries are getting stuck with the hueg pricetags.
(7:03:14 PM) Seras: COME ON, VAL
(7:03:42 PM) Reku_Avakaza: The things you learn from listening to NPR. ^^
(7:03:49 PM) Seras: Cool!
(7:03:53 PM) Seras: ...it's also a quality beer.
(7:03:59 PM) Seras: so, it's expensive twice!
(7:04:22 PM) Le_Squide: We missing a Val? :<
(7:04:49 PM) Seras: she said she's coming
(7:06:40 PM) Seras: do you guys want to continue to wait?
(7:08:24 PM) Dove: I don't mind.
(7:08:37 PM) Reku_Avakaza: *shrug* I just need to be in bed at 12:30ish.
(7:08:51 PM) Seras: so do I
(7:08:56 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Dozed off at work today and my supervisor's supervisor saw it. :<
(7:10:03 PM) ***Southbound_Phoenix doesn't mind
(7:10:25 PM) Seras: ouch. Did you get busted?
(7:11:03 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Had a "Okay, we need to fix this" talk from my super.
(7:12:03 PM) Seras: I drink more coffee than is healthy to avoid that problem.
(7:13:40 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Been trying that. Not really working.
(7:14:06 PM) Seras: oof. You must either be caffiene resistant or REALLY tired
(7:14:36 PM) Reku_Avakaza: The latter, mostly.
(7:15:15 PM) Seras: do you not sleep well, when you do sleep?
(7:15:56 PM) ***Seras is no stranger to exhaustion
(7:16:20 PM) Valheru [~18188c1e@6824EAF2.4E5788D1.1A09FF46.IP] entered the room.
(7:16:23 PM) Reku_Avakaza: I do, I just haven't gotten a lot of it recently/ :P
(7:16:25 PM) Valheru: ((Sorry D:))
(7:16:36 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: yay
(7:16:41 PM) Seras: WHEN WE LAST LEFT OFF
(7:17:13 PM) Valheru is now known as JadeWyvern
(7:17:24 PM) Seras: OUR HEROES (?) HAD SUCCESSFULLY CONVINCED THE YOUNG, IMPRESSIONABLE, INNOCENT, VICTIMIZED SOUTHBOUND PHOENIX THAT SERVING THE YOZIS WAS THE RIGHT, UPSTANDING THING TO DO
(7:17:55 PM) JadeWyvern: Of course it's right.
(7:18:12 PM) Seras: AND SO WITH REKU'S POWERFUL YOZI-BESTOWED GIFT, THE PARTY RETURNED TO THEIR COZY YOZI HOME IN THE HELL-REALM OF MALFEAS, WHERE THEY PROCEEDED TO PRESENT THEIR FRESH MEAT TO THEIR DARK MASTERS
(7:18:34 PM) Mister_Moonlight: And SUCH fresh meat she is. >3
(7:18:38 PM) Reku_Avakaza: And, for whatever reason, one of the party was concerned that the roster sheets weren't balanced. ;-)
(7:18:40 PM) Dove: (And the idiot of the two DBs actually opened her mental)
(7:18:59 PM) Seras: DOVE MANAGED TO IRRIATED THE SILENT WIND.
(7:19:03 PM) Seras: *IRRITATE
(7:19:04 PM) Dove: It's not my fault that I prefer power being in more than one set of hands...
(7:19:15 PM) Dove: Don't know why...
(7:19:17 PM) Mister_Moonlight: YES. IT IS.
(7:19:26 PM) Seras: AND THEY WERE ON THEIR WAY TO SPEAK WITH THE ...WHO?
(7:19:29 PM) Seras: EBON DRAGON?
(7:19:32 PM) Dove: NO.
(7:19:41 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Nope.
(7:19:41 PM) Seras: WHO, I FORGOT
(7:19:43 PM) Dove: BITCH HAS HIS HAND FULLS.
(7:19:53 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Gaia's ex, IIRC
(7:19:54 PM) JadeWyvern: THEY WERE GOING TO SEX UP PHOENIX.
(7:19:58 PM) Dove: xD
(7:20:06 PM) Seras: NO, THERE WILL BE NO SEX IN TEH CHAMPAGNE ROOM
(7:20:07 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Cytherea
(7:20:22 PM) Seras: Right, I wasn't sure if they were going to stop at another Yozi before then
(7:20:24 PM) Seras: hence me asking
(7:20:31 PM) Dove: Ah, I don't think so.
(7:20:50 PM) JadeWyvern: MALFEAS IS NOT THE CHAMPAGNE ROOM.
(7:21:00 PM) Seras: I thought perhaps you'd wanted to pay a visit to all of the circle's Patrons.
(7:21:01 PM) Le_Squide: HELL DOES NOT SERVE CHAMPAGNE
(7:21:02 PM) Seras: up to you.
(7:21:37 PM) Dove: I don't mind.
(7:21:52 PM) Dove: Because Dove would be a little too sappy to live.
(7:22:06 PM) Dove: But I want to see Cytherea!
(7:22:14 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Cytherea! Yes!
(7:22:58 PM) Seras: Svad, did you want to go poke at She Who Lives?
(7:23:12 PM) Dove: All clad in her black leather cozy.
(7:23:33 PM) Dove: You all know that SWLIHN is such a dom.
(7:24:07 PM) Seras: she spanks Malfeas and tells him he's a very bad boy.
(7:24:24 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: someone has to I suppose
(7:24:45 PM) Le_Squide: Hrm. Does the Solar have the brainitude to put up with Her?
(7:25:00 PM) Seras: what's your Int and Wits, Phoenix
(7:25:47 PM) Dove: 4, and 2.
(7:25:54 PM) ***Dove knows where her sheet is.
(7:26:03 PM) Dove: http://exalted.xi.co.nz/wiki/wiki.pl?En ... ingPhoenix
(7:26:35 PM) Seras: man, are you a sheet spy XD
(7:26:47 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: well I did show her
(7:26:50 PM) ***Seras totally is
(7:26:51 PM) Dove: No, she s- up.
(7:26:56 PM) Dove: yup.
(7:27:08 PM) Dove: Anyways!
(7:27:11 PM) Dove: You got your answer.
(7:27:11 PM) Seras: 4 Intelligence, hm? Needs improvement.
(7:27:14 PM) Dove: xD!
(7:27:33 PM) Seras: There's Svad's answer.
(7:28:06 PM) Le_Squide: Well, anyone else want to go visit the ol' Giant Collection of Swirling Orbs?
(7:28:11 PM) Reku_Avakaza: So...4th Wall Active?
(7:29:33 PM) Seras: (GET THE FUCK BEHIND THE FOURTH WALL!)
(7:29:41 PM) Dove: (*dives*)
(7:30:25 PM) Seras: (if nobody has an opinion either way, we'll skip ahead to gaining a party member)
(7:30:43 PM) Le_Squide: (Works for me! Let's get this rolling.)
(7:30:48 PM) Le_Squide is now known as Le_Kanzaku
(7:31:31 PM) ***Dove looks thoughtfully, and then shyly suggests, especially since she had just annoyed one of her kin's masters, "Perhaps Lady Cytherea would be wise?"
(7:32:17 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "It is a thought." Reku looks at the fire aspect, smirking.
(7:32:29 PM) ***Mister_Moonlight runs a hand through his short black hair. "She seems like a good choice, she has no servants, yes?"
(7:32:36 PM) ***Southbound_Phoenix seems distracted by the curious sights, sounds and smells of Malefeas but picks up some of the conversation "Cytherea?"
(7:32:46 PM) Le_Kanzaku: "She is infinitely inscrutable. That's a plus."
(7:32:58 PM) JadeWyvern: ((??)
(7:33:03 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "The former lover of Gaia."
(7:33:19 PM) Dove: "She is... was..." She nods to Reku for answering the question.
(7:33:26 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "Before the Moon-Bitch seduced her away from her true love."
(7:33:26 PM) Seras: (hold up: Int + Lore all around plz)
(7:33:32 PM) Seras: (different case here)
(7:33:34 PM) Reku_Avakaza: (Ah, okay.)
(7:33:42 PM) JadeWyvern left the room (quit: Disintegrated: CGI:IRC).
(7:33:51 PM) Valheru [~18188c1e@6824EAF2.4E5788D1.1A09FF46.IP] entered the room.

(7:34:02 PM) Reku_Avakaza: (...think that'll cover what I just said?)
(7:34:05 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (6)
(7:34:07 PM) JadeWyvern: ((What are we rolling?))
(7:34:15 PM) Reku_Avakaza: (Int+Lore)

(7:34:37 PM) Plentimon: JadeWyvern (4), 1, 4, 9, 8, Successes : 2
(7:36:02 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Am I still connected?))
(7:36:05 PM) Seras: None of you are fools and all have learned the lore of your masters well: Cytheria was never the lover of Gaia, that is only a hypothesis made up by modern scholars who could only guess from fragmented texts left over from a much, much more glorious time.
(7:36:41 PM) Reku_Avakaza: (Ah! Add on "Those of Creation say that..." to what I said, then. >.>)
(7:36:58 PM) Seras: They were, in fact, sisters--as mortals would understand it--both infinite and boundless in their creative energies; a drive that lead them to shaping the world.
(7:37:16 PM) Le_Kanzaku: !ex 12

(7:37:27 PM) Le_Kanzaku: (Sorry; was doing something for mother)
(7:38:06 PM) Seras: Those who were present know that Luna seduced Gaia to the side of the Traitor Sun, tearing her loyalties from her rightful lord Malfeas, and her position as dual-queen of the Created World
(7:39:33 PM) Seras: At the end of the First Usurpation, Cytheria willingly agreed to imprisonment in Malfeas, knowing that this would, for the time, be the best option. Her compassion is infinite, and no being alive can quite comprehend it.
(7:40:01 PM) ***Mister_Moonlight senses the opportunity to sing, and sings the legend of Cytherea to Phoenix in the bardic style.
(7:40:28 PM) Seras: It is heart-breakingly beautiful, and several passers-by Citizens weep openly.
(7:40:45 PM) ***Mister_Moonlight takes pride in that. >3
(7:41:08 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku does not cry, but he does smile at the song.
(7:41:23 PM) Dove: Of course, Dove joins it.
(7:41:25 PM) Seras: (you guys are considered as the Untouchables, fyi)
(7:41:33 PM) Seras: (er, Unquestionables)
(7:41:38 PM) Le_Kanzaku: Kanzaku sniffles.
(7:42:09 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Unquestionables?))
(7:42:20 PM) Dove: ( We are uber. ANd to be obeyed)
(7:42:24 PM) JadeWyvern left the room (quit: Disintegrated: CGI:IRC).
(7:42:31 PM) Valheru [~18188c1e@6824EAF2.4E5788D1.1A09FF46.IP] entered the room.
(7:42:36 PM) Valheru is now known as JadeWyvern
(7:42:41 PM) Seras: Cytheria is known be located one layer below the most recent, a short walk from the base of the twisting brass spire that ensconces the towering Temple of the Green Sun
(7:43:00 PM) Seras: (social status equivalent to Third Circle Demons, Val)
(7:43:27 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "To the Brass Spire, my cousins?"
(7:43:39 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "Indeed."
(7:43:44 PM) Seras: It is a long and perilous descent, even for the Beloved of the Yozis
(7:43:45 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: "I want to meet her, yes"
(7:44:10 PM) Seras: A friendly word to Jacint could easily change this, however.
(7:45:58 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Brb))
(7:46:02 PM) Seras: The Brass Spire juts up through countless layers of Malfeas' inverted flesh and twists into the sky, all at once beautiful and grotesque. Yellow-green light lances from the temple atop it.
(7:46:20 PM) Seras: It is the rising place and permanent home of the Green Sun.
(7:47:20 PM) Seras: You want to go...downwards.
(7:47:32 PM) Dove: Dove keeps her head down, wincing just a little. Though Ligier's light did not burn, she did not like the reminder.
(7:47:33 PM) Seras: Face the perils or take the easy way?
(7:47:43 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "Well, I suppose we should get going, then."
(7:48:01 PM) Le_Kanzaku: "Quite. Infinite time does not mean one should be late!"
(7:48:06 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Moonlight scratches his chin. "Or we could implore Jacint for a faster route. But I'm game for either." Grin.
(7:48:34 PM) Dove: "As am I. We could make it a race!"
(7:49:13 PM) Le_Kanzaku: Kanzaku sighs. "This discussion is hardly productive!" and begins floating downwards.
(7:49:36 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku chuckles, then follows down behind Kanzaku.
(7:49:42 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "Always such a spoilsport, Kanzaku." He drew out the other Infernal's name playfully. "But he's right, either way we should get moving."
(7:50:02 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Moonlight starts hot-stepping down.
(7:50:03 PM) Dove: "Damn Air Aspect." Dove sighs and begins leaping down.
(7:50:09 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Or was that the Nexus Swing he was doing?
(7:50:41 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Before he gets too far down, Reku pauses, then looks about for an agata.
(7:50:41 PM) JadeWyvern: "Wait, a race?"
(7:51:08 PM) Le_Kanzaku: Kanzaku sniffs. Dancing is for those without total universal knowledge! (And, you know, folks who actually have rhythm.)
(7:51:08 PM) Seras: A faithful Agata is not far away!
(7:51:10 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: "I hope I'm not part of this race, you're all more familiar with this place than I am"
(7:51:12 PM) Dove: It's too late, Dove is leaping down, giggling.
(7:51:19 PM) Seras: One buzzles over to assist you <3
(7:51:25 PM) JadeWyvern: Jade's body suddenly shrinks into the small form of a Falcon, zooming down faster than the eye can see.
(7:51:40 PM) Seras: Dex + Athl for those not floating or riding a pretty wasp!
(7:51:40 PM) JadeWyvern: "Aaaahahahahaha! Nice try!" Zoom zoom
(7:51:42 PM) ***Mister_Moonlight rolls his eyes.
(7:51:52 PM) Seras: Two dice stunts for the lot of you, for being the happiest Infernals ever.

(7:52:31 PM) Mister_Moonlight: ((Agata: Buzzle buzzle. <3))
(7:52:43 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Do I roll Dex + Athletics?))
(7:52:52 PM) Seras: (Yep!)

(7:53:52 PM) Mister_Moonlight: ((Oh, I'm nto sure if I asked you before, does Shapeshifting as a spirit charm limit you to human or animal forms?)
(7:54:05 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: (didn't add the dex 5 it was the only attribute I boosted with Infernal Glory)
(7:54:10 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (If not I was going to have a Will 'o Wisp as one of my forms. =O)
(7:54:20 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (For floating pretty glowy exits.)
(7:54:32 PM) Le_Kanzaku: Kanzaku rolls his eyes once more. What childish fools..."HEY! AMPHELIOS! GET OVER HERE!"
(7:54:57 PM) Seras: a gelatinous blob blobbles over, flobbling from precipice to precipe.
(7:55:14 PM) Seras: (it does not, Sparda)
(7:55:31 PM) Mister_Moonlight: ((Oooooh, excellent. Wispy tyme!))
(7:55:46 PM) Le_Kanzaku: "My orb and I need to get to Cytheria. ...Before they do."
(7:56:00 PM) Seras: The blobby demon splats open onto the ground and wibbles invitingly.
(7:56:02 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Ah...no better way to travel than on an agata.
(7:57:02 PM) Le_Kanzaku: Kanzaku hops it. "Swiftly, faithful friend!"
(7:57:13 PM) JadeWyvern: Jade zips through the air happily, diving this way and that.
(7:57:13 PM) Seras: Blbbl! *ZOOOM*
(7:57:18 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Moonlight rols his eyes again and decides not to waste his time too much. Tapping hsi feet in an intricate rhythm, a ghostly piano chord seems to float through the air. In a smoky haze, Moonlight rizes into a small glowign silvery orb, zipping down the corridor.
(7:57:35 PM) Seras: Jade is passed by a demon sailing at unnaturally fast rates of speed!
(7:57:42 PM) Mister_Moonlight: ((Inspired by Sweet from Once More with Feeling. >.>))
(7:58:13 PM) Seras: Hm. Moonlight can make a Dex + Essence + [Virtue shapechange is under] roll to race everyone!
(7:58:25 PM) Mister_Moonlight: ((Oooooh. <3))
(7:58:32 PM) Dove: Dove is apparently the slowest, but she is still enjoying herself. But as she moves, she begins looking in the shadows. "Sister, sister, servant of my beloved, could you help me get to the end of my journey?"
(7:58:42 PM) Mister_Moonlight: !ex 8

(7:59:51 PM) Seras: (You're anima flaring?)
(8:00:02 PM) Mister_Moonlight: ((Then yo ucan't transform into a hawk. O__o))
(8:00:02 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Using my ANima Power, yeah.))
(8:00:11 PM) Seras: (then you get booted out of your shapechange, yes)
(8:00:13 PM) JadeWyvern: ((I can use Personal.))
(8:00:18 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Can't I?))
(8:00:30 PM) Seras: (um, anima effects are tied to your....anima)
(8:00:34 PM) Mister_Moonlight: ((Hmmmmm...))
(8:00:36 PM) JadeWyvern: ((<_< Oh yeah.))
(8:00:39 PM) Seras: (hmm indeed)
(8:00:54 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Principle of Motion!))
(8:01:03 PM) Seras: (using your action to do what?)
(8:01:11 PM) Dove: (Go faster, duh?)
(8:01:20 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Also: remember that I'm moving at 2x normal speed.))
(8:01:27 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Because of my Hearthstone.))
(8:01:41 PM) Seras: Jade: Kanzaku is cheating, and Moonlight is fast, but you're FASTER.
(8:01:53 PM) Seras: Dove hears: "Psst!"
(8:01:53 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Hehehe. :D))
(8:02:10 PM) Dove: Dove stops and looks into the shadows, taking a step forward. "Yes?"
(8:02:11 PM) Mister_Moonlight: If moonlight still had eyebrows he would have raised them at the speed that Jade passed him with.
(8:02:22 PM) Seras: The Agata moves very swifly, flying only a few feet behind Jade
(8:02:26 PM) Mister_Moonlight: ((Heh, the weakness of his Wisp form being that he has no real way to affect anything. ^^;;))
(8:02:38 PM) Seras: "Over here." a pair of eyes light up in the blackness of a crevasse
(8:02:56 PM) Dove: Dove approaches, bowing politely. "Yes?"
(8:03:11 PM) Seras: "you wanna way down, right?"
(8:03:13 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku doesn't really seem to be interested in the racing part of this trip. He's just admiring the view.
(8:03:20 PM) Dove: "Yes, please."
(8:03:30 PM) Seras: The voice is high pitched and childlike, but with a slightly malicious ring to it.
(8:03:40 PM) Dove: The ring only makes Dove smile more.
(8:04:18 PM) Seras: "Then follow me" you feel a cold, dry hand clasp yours.
(8:04:30 PM) Dove: Dove is pulled along.
(8:04:43 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Phoenix knows she isn't going to win the race and is trying not to get hopelessly lost
(8:05:14 PM) Seras: Phoenix, there is a collection of beetle-like demons staring at you with manymany pairs of eyestalks
(8:05:21 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "Care for a ride, my dear?" Reku moves the agata over by Phoenix, smiling warmly.
(8:05:26 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (Awwww, cute. <3)
(8:05:37 PM) Seras: they are interspersed between multicolored sluglike demons, also staring.
(8:05:47 PM) Seras: o.o o.o o.o o.o o.o o.o o.o o.o o.o
(8:06:05 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (...Seras I can't stop giggling. XD)
(8:06:28 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Phoenix looks back at the demons "if you'll be so kind, I don't know the way"
(8:06:48 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "It would be my pleasure." He scoots up a bit to give Phoenix room.
(8:06:53 PM) Seras: As the rest of you fly/wisp/demon your way down, it grows progressively darker but /warmer/ the further you go away from the Green Sun
(8:07:07 PM) Le_Kanzaku: (EHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE)
(8:07:25 PM) JadeWyvern left the room (quit: Disintegrated: CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)).
(8:07:30 PM) Seras: The darkness almost seems to /breathe/
(8:08:01 PM) Dove: Dove is used to it.
(8:08:21 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Moonlight is not.
(8:08:37 PM) Seras: "This way this way." Dove is pulled sharply around corners, spiraling down, down.
(8:08:42 PM) Mister_Moonlight: He's missing the beautiful slicing breezes and torrent of ahrsh green sunlight already.
(8:09:05 PM) Dove: She keeps running, swaying like a flame in the wind.
(8:09:07 PM) Seras: then, as Dove is being tugged around, there is a sudden, dull light: those of a gently smoldering forge fire.
(8:09:12 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Phoenix certainly isn't used to this, but then we already knew that ;)
(8:09:29 PM) Seras: and the silohuette of your guide comes into plain view.
(8:10:16 PM) Dove: Dove laughs brightly. "Ah, I know you are!"
(8:10:44 PM) Seras: She's a little shorter than you are, built like a young girl, though a young girl crafted of nightfall and malice. She points a delicate finger at a yawning hole in her forge floor. " 'course you do. Jump in. goes straight down."
(8:11:20 PM) Dove: "Thank you very much. I'll find something for you to craft when I return." She bows and then jumps right in.
(8:11:23 PM) Seras: Per + Awr for everyone but Dove.
(8:11:53 PM) Seras: Dove: if you've ever ridden a waterslide that was mostly in the dark, that's what this is like, only without the water.

(8:13:13 PM) Dove: Oh shit...
(8:13:25 PM) Dove: Dove is going to be laughing, and throwing up. :p
(8:13:39 PM) Dove: Or can I do willpower to keep her from barfing?
(8:13:46 PM) Seras: Dove: this is probably how blood feels. Without the nausea.
(8:14:02 PM) Seras: Yes, you may spend a wp to avoid tossing cookies.
(8:14:07 PM) Dove: Burned.
(8:14:27 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (awww, Moonlight could have had fun with that. >3)
(8:14:32 PM) Dove: (So, 6 WP left)
(8:14:44 PM) Dove: (No way is Dove giving you a chance to mock her!)
(8:15:06 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (Hehehehe.)
(8:15:14 PM) Reku_Avakaza: (Too late, dear. :P)
(8:15:16 PM) Seras: everyone else, as they are rapidly descending, realizes that there's a netting of some sort of living thing stretched across this second layer. It vaguely resembles vines, but no plants grow in Malfeas! From within this area, there's a faint, whitish glow.
(8:15:55 PM) Dove: (If Dove has her way, there will be flowers!)
(8:15:57 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Moonlight wonders who or what the thing is.
(8:16:04 PM) Seras: Kanzaku arrives there first, having cheated with a super-speed demon, about the same time that Dove tumbles UP out of the ground, butt first.
(8:16:23 PM) Dove: And looking a little queasy.
(8:16:28 PM) Le_Kanzaku: Kanzaku squirms out of his transportation. "HAHIWIN- I mean hello, Dove."
(8:16:44 PM) Dove: "Uggggh, now I know how blood feels." >.<
(8:16:55 PM) Seras: The Amphelios makes a sort of flatulating noise and bubbles back up.
(8:16:58 PM) Dove: She gets into a sitting position.
(8:17:43 PM) Le_Kanzaku: "How -did- you get here so fast, though?"
(8:17:54 PM) Dove: "That's a secret."
(8:18:05 PM) Seras: Jade Wyvern would come smashing through at this moment, were she still in the chat
(8:18:17 PM) Dove: Dove gives him a smug, though also ill, grin.
(8:18:37 PM) JadeWyvern [~18188c1e@6824EAF2.4E5788D1.1A09FF46.IP] entered the room.
(8:18:45 PM) Seras: Seras> Jade Wyvern would come smashing through at this moment, were she still in the chat
(8:18:48 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Ugh.)
(8:18:56 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Smashing through whatnow?))
(8:19:02 PM) Dove: Kanzaku and Dove are there.
(8:19:05 PM) Le_Kanzaku: Connection problems, Val?)
(8:19:11 PM) Dove: Dove looking like she almost got sick.
(8:19:14 PM) Seras: Seras> everyone else, as they are rapidly descending, realizes that there's a netting of some sort of living thing stretched across this second layer. It vaguely resembles vines, but no plants grow in Malfeas! From within this area, there's a faint, whitish glow.)
(8:20:02 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Yeah.))
(8:20:20 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku hmms at the vines. "Rather interesting..." He looks back at Phoenix. "Enjoying the ride thus far?"
(8:20:25 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Moonlight, completely unable to make any entrance without style, shoots through the air like a tiny glowing meteor and impacts the ground with a tremendous burst of red and black smoke, which quickly thins out and parts to show Moonlight straightening his lapels. "So, Dove, how was your trip?"
(8:20:25 PM) JadeWyvern: Jade shifts while in the air, landing once more in her human form.
(8:20:39 PM) Dove: "Now I feel like I was blood."
(8:20:42 PM) JadeWyvern: "Wait, how did you beat me?"
(8:20:47 PM) Mister_Moonlight: ((Spending the essence + WP to shift back to normal form.)
(8:20:48 PM) Dove: "Secret!"
(8:20:58 PM) Dove: Dove is still smirking, but a little queasy.
(8:21:09 PM) JadeWyvern: "BAH! You cheated!" She grins.
(8:21:25 PM) Dove: "No, I just used my resources!"
(8:21:26 PM) ***Mister_Moonlight raises an eyebrow. "You're looking a little green, my dear, and not in the good way."
(8:21:46 PM) Dove: "I am not surprised."
(8:21:53 PM) Le_Kanzaku: "Proper application of intellect!"
(8:22:08 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: "well at least the Wyld Hunt weren't chasing me this time"
(8:22:25 PM) JadeWyvern: Muttermutter..
(8:22:31 PM) Seras: Phoenix and Reku arrive at their leisure
(8:22:55 PM) Dove: *... You aren't going to live this down, my beloved, will you?*
(8:23:04 PM) Dove: (let me live this down)(
(8:23:26 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "Always a good thing, my dear." As the agata lands, Reku slides off, then offers a hand to Phoenix.
(8:23:57 PM) Seras: *Goodness no.* then there's a chuckling that tickles you to the soul.
(8:24:37 PM) Dove: *Good. I'm not surprised. I'll have to do it again to make sure I can use it.*
(8:24:43 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: "thank you" Phoenix steps off the agata and turns her attention to the white vines "what are they?"

(8:25:52 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: (presume Phoenix won't know)
(8:25:53 PM) Le_Kanzaku: (DARN YOU MR. MOONLIGHT)
(8:25:57 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (Mister Moonlight's Loremongering is worth something from time to time. XD)
(8:26:41 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (If that's enough sucesses, Moonlight will once again present his info in as musical a manner as possible. =3)
(8:27:17 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: (why does this feel like robot hell?)
(8:27:35 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (Because that's what I was drawing inspiriation from for this one. >3)
(8:27:53 PM) Seras: Moonlight and Reku: one of the first creations of the Primordials, a barely-sentient race of plantlike creatures that exist largely to worship. They were not the most interesting of species and were therefore scrapped for other, neater things. Like Dragon Kings.
(8:27:56 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (Mister Moonlight is a mishmash of all my favorite musical villan cliches.)
(8:28:13 PM) Seras: Everyone else: Malfeas has vericose veins? No clue.
(8:28:39 PM) JadeWyvern: *Master, what are those things?*
(8:29:06 PM) Seras: -THE FIRST OF OUR CREATIONS-
(8:29:14 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "They are creations of the Makers that channel prayers to them."
(8:29:28 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "One of their first creations, if I recall correctly."
(8:29:37 PM) JadeWyvern: "The first, actually."
(8:30:08 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "And they were so boring they got stuck down here. Look at 'em, don't have no soul in 'em."
(8:30:32 PM) Le_Kanzaku: "How unfortunate."
(8:30:37 PM) Dove: "Poor things."
(8:30:45 PM) Seras: Come to think of it, the ground beneath your feet is soft and squishy, covered with a soft layer of powder-green fungal matter.
(8:30:51 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "What good's a follower that can't dance? These followers don't dance and if they can't dance, well, they're no followers of mine."
(8:31:00 PM) Dove: ( xD )
(8:31:03 PM) Seras: (....)
(8:31:10 PM) Le_Kanzaku: (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA)
(8:31:11 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (....)
(8:31:17 PM) Seras: (You can be Infernal if you want to, you can leave your friends behind....)
(8:31:23 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (XDDDD)
(8:31:27 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (THE HELLGAEM DANCE!)
(8:31:42 PM) Dove: (We can dance! We can dance!)
(8:31:48 PM) Dove: (Everyone look at your hands!)
(8:31:58 PM) Dove: (Back to game nao?)
(8:32:07 PM) ***Mister_Moonlight looks at his hands and walks off to inspect the fungal growth a little more.)
(8:32:26 PM) Le_Kanzaku: *My Lady, will their essence prove essential to us later?*
(8:32:27 PM) Dove: Dove looks at her own hands to study the growth.
(8:32:31 PM) Seras: The whitish light emanates from a cave about 10 yards from where you are
(8:32:38 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "Hmmmm. must have just set themselves up here since they had nowhere else to go."
(8:32:56 PM) ***Dove finally stands up, and dusts herself off.
(8:33:41 PM) Seras: - /they are largely unnecessary, an experiment in the creation of life. Why they are still in existance is the perogative of Cytheria/ -
(8:33:42 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku offers a hand to Phoenix. "Shall we go and introduce you properly?"
(8:33:42 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Ah, a cave. Moonlight will proceed to it while trying not to kill anything. The plants have a function and haven't done anything to piss anyone off.
(8:33:44 PM) Le_Kanzaku: "Cogs spinning in a faceless clock..." Kanzaku muses to himself as he follows Moonlight in.
(8:34:07 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: "okay, what do I say though? any advice?"
(8:34:17 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "Just be yourself."
(8:34:24 PM) Dove: Dove stands on the other side of Phoenix, and nods in agreement.
(8:34:25 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: "I can do that"
(8:34:41 PM) JadeWyvern: "You'll be fine." Jade grins.
(8:34:42 PM) Seras: The air in the cave is frighteningly clean, almost like the cool air of Creation, and nothing like the Silent Wind.
(8:34:44 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "I'm not sure that she can hate ANYONE. So just show her that you can serve her well."
(8:35:25 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "...Ugh..." The air was a little offensive...
(8:35:25 PM) Seras: In the distance, there is the sound of running water. The cave is made of stone--an unusual find in Malfeas--and slopes gently downwards.
(8:35:34 PM) Dove: "It's so pretty..."
(8:35:45 PM) Dove: "It's like the Shattered Mirror, but without flowers."
(8:35:50 PM) Seras: some of the light is generated from phosphorescent fungi, the rest...comes from elsewhere.
(8:36:46 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "...She really IS like Gaia..."
(8:37:20 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "It is rather beautiful."
(8:37:30 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Phoenix takes a sharp intake of the clean air "it is beautiful"
(8:38:18 PM) Dove: -... One would think a flower or two could grow here, if there is a footing......- The Dragonblooded looks hopeful as she looks about.
(8:38:20 PM) JadeWyvern left the room (quit: Disintegrated: CGI:IRC).
(8:38:30 PM) JadeWyvern [~18188c1e@6824EAF2.4E5788D1.1A09FF46.IP] entered the room.
(8:38:39 PM) Dove: (Missed nothing)
(8:38:49 PM) JadeWyvern: ((D:))
(8:39:12 PM) Seras: "It is likely." The voice wells up from your own heart, Dove, and makes you almost want to weep. "If someone would bring flowers /here/."
(8:39:39 PM) Dove: Dove looks very startled, and in fact, jumps, looking about.
(8:39:57 PM) Seras: There's not anyone immediately visible. Annnnd it doesn't look like anyone else heard that.
(8:40:07 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: "what is it Dove?"
(8:40:20 PM) Dove: "... Someone spoke, when I was thinking about flowers."
(8:40:32 PM) Dove: "I was wondering if they could grow here."
(8:40:50 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "It must be Her... But why isn't she showing herself?"
(8:40:59 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku chuckles.
(8:41:09 PM) Dove: "And... I got an answer." She had a pleased smile. "Well, perhaps she is, already?"
(8:41:24 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "Hmmm... She's this place, you think?"
(8:41:26 PM) Dove: She gestures around her.
(8:41:44 PM) Seras: "you hadn't even asked, dear Moonlight." The voice pours through your soul, and feels like the best hug you've ever had.
(8:42:04 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: "Cytherea?"
(8:42:09 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Moonlight lets out an almost childlike sigh and his knees become weak.
(8:42:27 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "I apologize for not asking sooner, Lady Cytherea..." Wow...
(8:42:29 PM) Dove: "Malfeas is the Masters and Mistress's prison, why not her being our surroundings?" Dove whispers, as to not interrupt.
(8:42:30 PM) JadeWyvern: "It would make sense, with how beautiful it is down here.."
(8:43:16 PM) Seras: "Do you wish to see my face?" It is a whisper everyone hears, the flood of warmth through you. A gasp of unconditional love, like a long breath of air after being submerged.
(8:43:31 PM) JadeWyvern: "..Y..Yes.."
(8:43:49 PM) Dove: Dove is used to the sensation of love, and just looks peaceful. She bows. "If you desire it, good lady."
(8:43:51 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "More than anything at the moment, Milady."
(8:43:58 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: "I would be honoured"
(8:43:59 PM) Seras: (what's everyone's Compassion?)
(8:44:02 PM) Dove: (4!)
(8:44:06 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (2. >.>)

(8:45:28 PM) Dove: (And remember, Dove has True Wub too)
(8:45:30 PM) Seras: (er, 3)
(8:45:44 PM) JadeWyvern: (Comp 2 right now.))
(8:45:56 PM) Le_Kanzaku: (6)
(8:45:58 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku bows deeply to no one in particular. "It is an honor to be before you, Mother of Creation."
(8:45:59 PM) Le_Kanzaku: (err, 4)
(8:46:05 PM) JadeWyvern: ((What is DMDV?))
(8:46:10 PM) JadeWyvern: ((The calculation^))

(8:46:49 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (Oh, 6.)
(8:46:51 PM) Seras: (3 and below)
(8:46:53 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (So 4)
(8:47:07 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: (pre Infernalisation= 4)
(8:47:32 PM) JadeWyvern: ((5))
(8:47:34 PM) Reku_Avakaza: (5)
(8:47:38 PM) Seras: !ex 20
(8:47:39 PM) Plentimon: Seras (20), 6, 10, 9, 9, 2, 9, 5, 8, 3, 10, 2, 2, 10, 3, 8, 7, 4, 2, 2, 2, Successes : 12
(8:47:50 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (o___O Whammied)
(8:47:51 PM) Seras: Everyone is now functionally Compassion 4.
(8:47:52 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (HARD)
(8:47:56 PM) Dove: WOO!
(8:48:12 PM) Dove: (*coughs*)
(8:48:18 PM) Seras: For the rest of teh scene, your Compassion is 4, for all purposes, including channels.
(8:48:24 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Moonlight suddenly feels... worry and... concern and... some sort of strange longing to help his fellow man.
(8:48:27 PM) Mister_Moonlight: WHAT IS THIS!?
(8:48:35 PM) JadeWyvern: "....."
(8:48:38 PM) Dove: Dove looks totally unaffected.
(8:48:39 PM) Seras: at the end of the scene, you may raise Compassion at the rate of 2x current, not 3.
(8:48:48 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (Oooh.)
(8:48:55 PM) Dove: (... Yup, Dove will take a compassion of 5)
(8:48:56 PM) Le_Kanzaku: "...My logic has been impugned!"
(8:49:01 PM) JadeWyvern: "...W..What have I done..?"
(8:49:13 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "...Oh god I feel like putting on a... a... CHARITY CONCERT."
(8:49:22 PM) Dove: "And that's a bad thing?"
(8:49:28 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "My Lady... What have I done?"
(8:49:29 PM) Dove: !ex 4
(8:49:30 PM) Plentimon: Dove (4), 4, 2, 8, 4, Successes : 1
(8:49:34 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Moonlight is agonizing.
(8:49:38 PM) JadeWyvern: Jade sinks to her knees, face in her hands, what seems to be tears flowing.
(8:49:47 PM) Seras: -phmph. Cytheria. =_= -
(8:49:50 PM) Dove: "Oh dear..."
(8:50:04 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (Rofl. I could hear Her mocking tone in that.)
(8:50:13 PM) Dove: "Good Lady... Ah... is there something wrong with them?"
(8:50:17 PM) JadeWyvern: "..S..so much blood on my hands..so much.."
(8:50:35 PM) Seras: The light draws away from the walls, coalescing into a vaguely human shape in the midst of the cavern.
(8:50:50 PM) Seras: "No, bride of the Dragon, they have only achieved a new understanding."
(8:50:52 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "I can't believe I've been HOARDING my riches like this... I'll have to give EVERYONE at the Silver Stage a raise!"
(8:50:58 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Phoenix seems relitively uneffected but stops to remark "I hope my family's safe"
(8:51:15 PM) Seras: Then the light clears, and a woman stands before you.
(8:51:25 PM) Dove: "Ah... So that is why they are being so worried..." Dove doesn't have the heart to laugh at them.
(8:52:20 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku doesn't seem to be horribly changed by this new influx of feeling. *My lady, my cousins are currently sobbing their hearts out due to Cytherea's machinations. Should your servant be concerned?*
(8:52:51 PM) Seras: - No, my servant. Your loyalty to me is unquestionable. -
(8:53:11 PM) Reku_Avakaza: *As is proper, my lady.*
(8:53:27 PM) JadeWyvern: ((Wouldn't Malfeas be pissed that his General is now weeping at all the people she's killed?))
(8:53:28 PM) Le_Kanzaku: "Kryssk...do I pay enough attention to -your- needs?" he inquires of his orb.
(8:53:38 PM) Seras: "you do, my lord! <3"
(8:53:46 PM) Dove: Dove sighs. Sometimes, tough love was needed... She grimaces for a moment...
(8:53:47 PM) Mister_Moonlight: (HAHAHAHAHA_
(8:53:47 PM) Seras: (probably, but you're on her turf right now)
(8:53:58 PM) Dove: !ex 4
(8:54:00 PM) Plentimon: Dove (4), 2, 10, 3, 6, Successes : 2
(8:54:10 PM) ***Dove changes her mind.
(8:54:20 PM) Seras: is everyone looking up, since she appeared before you?
(8:54:26 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Phoenix bows to Cytherea "the others have told me much about you but I see how that I am only truly starting to learn"
(8:54:40 PM) Dove: Dove has bowed very politely to the Yozi.
(8:54:46 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku bows once more, now that the Mother has fully shown herself.
(8:54:52 PM) Seras: As everyone lifts their gaze to the Yozi...
(8:55:29 PM) ***Mister_Moonlight shakes out of his little pity party in time to gaze at Cytherea.
(8:55:55 PM) Le_Kanzaku: Kanzaku looks, while gently polishing Kryssk.
(8:56:24 PM) JadeWyvern: Jade lifts her eyes to Cytherea.
(8:56:44 PM) Seras: Dove: She's tall and beautiful and strong, with long red hair and a commanding posture. Jade: She's a woman who's beautiful by all barbarian standards, clearly of Northern descent. Rugged and built to endure hardship. Reku: A southern woman stands before you, dressed for a desert caravan, her long black hair flows gently in the cool breeze. Kankazu: she's a woman of the realm, dressed in...
(8:56:45 PM) Seras: ...blue with whitish hair and eyes like a clear sky
(8:57:49 PM) Seras: Moonlight: She's a small woman with orange hair and slate gray eyes, but fierce in her own right. Phoenix: She's a woman of the east, her golden hair plaited and back out of her face, dressed in the garb of a merchant.
(8:57:59 PM) Seras: but most importantly: she's *your* mother.
(8:58:15 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "...Maman?"
(8:58:37 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku blinks, but quickly regains his composure.
(8:58:43 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Noooo, this was a Demon Queen, not his mother... But wow was that a startlign resemblance.
(8:58:50 PM) Dove: Dove winces for a moment, feeling like she should remember her... And then goes just a little wide-eyed. "..." The words can't come from her lips, something of fear for a split second.
(8:58:56 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: "Mother?"
(8:59:03 PM) Dove: !ex 3
(8:59:04 PM) Plentimon: Dove (3), 5, 9, 10, Successes : 3
(8:59:23 PM) JadeWyvern: "..." t_t
(8:59:25 PM) JadeWyvern: T_T^
(8:59:44 PM) Dove: But she gathers herself easily, and bows deeply, Kanzaku can definitely recognize it.
(8:59:44 PM) Seras: "Why have you come to visit me, Beloved of my Siblings?"
(8:59:55 PM) Dove: (even deeper)
(9:00:31 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "We bring a new servant who wishes to right the wrongs done to you and your siblings, Mother."
(9:00:31 PM) Dove: "We were able to rescue a maiden touched by the Traitor Sun."
(9:01:04 PM) Mister_Moonlight: "NOw she seeks a Master who she may serve to her fullest."
(9:01:34 PM) Seras: "why bring her to me?" she asks with a bemused smile
(9:01:52 PM) Dove: "You have no servant." Dove says softly.
(9:02:14 PM) Reku_Avakaza: "It was the Bride's decision, actually." He smirks, looking to Dove.
(9:02:15 PM) Dove: "No child to guide like our masters do..."
(9:02:51 PM) Dove: Gee, thanks, Reku, Dove looks embarrassed AND a little scared now.
(9:03:13 PM) Seras: The bemused smile persists
(9:03:36 PM) Le_Kanzaku: Kanzaku taps his nose thoughtfully, even whilst in awe.
(9:03:53 PM) Reku_Avakaza: (*does the "I'm an Evil Twilight" dance* >:3)
(9:04:13 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Phoenix struggles to find the words "the others have told me of the path to serve the true masters, I wish for it to be you... mother"
(9:04:47 PM) Seras: The image of Phoenix's mother holds her hand out. "If you would choose this, then take it. Choose wisely, for it cannot be reversed."
(9:07:41 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: Phoenix reaches her hand out "I wish it so, where would I find a greater calling than by your side?"
(9:09:31 PM) Seras: "Then let it be done." And her hand clasps yours. It is like holding the hand of the world. your heart flutters and trembles. You have never felt so ALIVE. It is like Exaltation all over again, the rush of power through your veins, the charging of your soul, the sudden understanding that you are a part of the worldly Essence flows.
(9:10:24 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku smiles, watching Phoenix be reborn in a much better way.
(9:10:42 PM) Seras: You understand what you ahve taken on, what you have become. The vast, vast sorrow your Mother and Mistress feels for the fallen world, the sadness that the Traitor Sun would betray his father and lock him away in a prison, the heartache that her own Creation barely knows she exists.
(9:10:44 PM) Mister_Moonlight: Awwww, that rush. Moonlight smiles nostalgically.
(9:10:49 PM) Seras: you must remedy this. MUST.
(9:11:21 PM) Seras: and now you TRULY have the power to do so.
(9:11:31 PM) Dove: Dove is also smiling as well, and idly wondering.
(9:11:45 PM) Dove: *What did it look like when you transformed me, beloved?*
(9:12:26 PM) Seras: *Like the falling of the first night, or the way a bonfire slowly burns out*
(9:13:09 PM) Dove: She smiles slightly. *It must have been pretty... Maybe I need to find a sibling to watch it myself.*
(9:13:21 PM) Reku_Avakaza: *Your servant is reminded of the night when he was first embraced by your loving sands, my lady.*
(9:13:23 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: (time for name change?)
(9:13:33 PM) Seras: (TIME FOR NAME CHANGE)
(9:13:41 PM) Southbound_Phoenix: (one small step for this little Quicksliver Falcon)
(9:13:49 PM) Southbound_Phoenix is now known as Blazing_Phoenix
(9:13:59 PM) Seras: You are then released, and you are once again present with your Cousins, changed...
(9:13:59 PM) Blazing_Phoenix: (one giant leap for this Infernal)
(9:14:04 PM) Seras: (you may describe yourself!)
(9:14:11 PM) ***Mister_Moonlight sings a hymn in thanks to the great Makers.
(9:14:37 PM) Seras: -It is a night that we both cherish, Reku -
(9:14:51 PM) Dove: Words can't describe Dove's emotions of it, and she simply keeps quiet.
(9:15:06 PM) Blazing_Phoenix: (do I have the new stuff yet, or do I get it later?)
(9:15:39 PM) JadeWyvern: *Master, I remember when I first came to you. And I thank you every day for taking me into your embrace.*
(9:16:40 PM) Seras: (you have all your new stuff)
(9:18:04 PM) Seras: - YOU ARE AMONG THE GREATEST OF MY BELOVED, JADE WYVERN-
(9:18:36 PM) JadeWyvern: "Thank you, Master."
(9:18:59 PM) Dove: (And somewhere, Venus is going "I feel like there is something a distrubance in the love.")
(9:19:23 PM) Seras: (I know a lot of us have to go to bed: is this a good place to stop?)
(9:19:33 PM) Reku_Avakaza: Reku looks to Cytherea, then bows. "Thank you for granting our newest cousin the proper mental clarity to serve the True Gods, Mother."
(9:19:36 PM) Reku_Avakaza: (Yes plz.)
(9:19:48 PM) Blazing_Phoenix: (I'll describe Phoenix next week :)
(9:19:48 PM) Dove: (I don't have to! :P)
(9:19:53 PM) Dove: (Okay then)
(9:20:03 PM) Dove: (I'll end logging.... Now)
(9:20:05 PM) Logging stopped. Future messages in this conversation will not be logged.
