-
<br>10:13 Greenling Namhwa finds Mary's door.
+
Last we left our three travellers... and Sunny... Who for her part is staying under the table and trying to hide from the Avenger...  The Provider was about to lead Cho Namhwa back into another room and attempt to revoke his blessing from him.
-
<br>10:13 Namhwa taps lightly. "Mary? We're about to head over to the theater and I

-
thought you might like to come along," he says in High Realm.
+
 
-
<br>10:15 Greenling You hear cursing in Seatongue.
+
"...Are you *sure* you want me to do this?" The little blond demon rocks back on his heels and gives Namhwa the most adorable sad look he can muster.
-
<br>10:15 Greenling Muffled.
+
 
-
<br>10:15 Namhwa "Hello?" he says again in High Realm with another tap on the door.
+
"Absolutely, chingu," Namhwa uses an affectionate Seatongue term of endearment. "Your blessing, while most welcome, is obviously not meant for a being of Creation. Thank you again for all that you've done for me." Namhwa tries to reassure the creature he still thinks of as a boy.
-
<br>10:16 Greenling "GAH!" Crash.
+
 
-
<br>10:16 Greenling That was a male voice.
+
"Aw. Okay," the Provider says with a note of disappointment.
-
<br>10:16 Namhwa tries the door and shoves on it.
+
 
-
<br>10:16 Namhwa (Were there any male guests in Mary's room?)
+
The Provider leads Cho into a large room with boxes of things pushed against the walls to make space in the center. "I'm going to wash this off. I'll be back in a second." Namhwa peers at the boxes curiously, but they're all generic-looking unmarked closed boxes so Namhwa relaxes and waits.
-
<br>10:17 Greenling (not last you know.)
+
 
-
<br>10:17 Namhwa "Are you okay?!"
+
The Provider heads into another room. One can hear some slight splashing.
-
<br>10:17 Greenling You shove it open, and see Rudy in what looks like a torn purple burial garment.
+
 
-
<br>10:17 Namhwa :O
+
Rei leans into Rudeth, buzz of the drink starting to fade and leaving a happily sleepy Rei.
-
<br>10:17 Greenling "...Oh for the love of fuck."
+
 
-
<br>10:17 Namhwa stands there shocked.
+
...My, that's a large shadow all of a sudden. Rudeth keeps an arm around Rei, watching the Provider's family carefully.  Namhwa shadows his eyes, wondering if the "darkness" a trick of the light.
-
<br>10:17 Namhwa "IMPOSTOR!"
+
 
-
<br>10:17 Greenling "Get in here and shut the fucking door, asshole!"
+
 
-
<br>10:18 Greenling "What?"
+
<br>06:35    Greenling   It looks vaguely like the back end of a... horse? Ish? If the horse was about twice the size of Peyt.
-
<br>10:18 Namhwa slams the door shut.
+
<br>06:35    Greenling   And then, it's gone.
-
<br>10:18 Greenling "Impostor of-"
+
<br>06:36        Namhwa frowns.
-
<br>10:18 Greenling (inside or outside?)
+
<br>06:36    Greenling    The Provider walks out clean and with new clothes.
-
<br>10:18 Namhwa "I don't know who you think you are, but this time you're not getting away."
+
<br>06:36    Greenling   "'Kay. Done."
-
<br>10:18 Namhwa (inside)
+
<br>       Your Doom Awaits You
-
<br>10:18 Greenling He crosses his arms and stares at you.
+
<br>       Topic set by Rudeth on Thu Jul 09 2009 06:36:35 GMT+0300 (Arabic Standard Time)
-
<br>10:18 Greenling "Fine."
+
<br>06:36        Namhwa smiles at the Provider.
-
<br>10:18 Namhwa "First the Priest, now Rudy?"
+
       
-
<br>10:19 Greenling "...What? What does Rudy have to do with this?"
+
<br>       Topic set by Rei on Thu Jul 09 2009 06:37:29 GMT+0300 (Arabic Standard Time)
-
<br>10:19 Namhwa "I don't know!" he exclaims. "Why are you impersonating him?!"
+
<br>06:37    Rei    Whoop
-
<br>10:19 Namhwa gesticulates.
+
<br>06:37    Greenling   He smiles back. :3
-
<br>10:20 Greenling The guy's mouth drops open, waves a hand around, stares at you a little, then just looks confused.
+
<br>       Your Doom Awaits You - Have Correct Change
-
<br>10:20 Greenling He looks up... then down... the back at you.
+
<br>       Topic set by Rei on Thu Jul 09 2009 06:37:39 GMT+0300 (Arabic Standard Time)
-
<br>10:20 Greenling "Okay, this must be a quirk."
+
<br><br>06:38        Rei slumps over to land, head in Rudeth's lap, yawning softly as she lays there.
-
<br>10:20 Greenling "You can see me?"
+
<br>06:38    Greenling   He walks over to a smaller box, picks out a piece of chalk, and runs arund drawing what seems to be a magic circle.
-
<br>10:21 Namhwa :O
+
<br>06:38    Greenling    Sunny watches closely.
-
<br>10:21 Namhwa "Yeah. You can see me, right? And Sunny?"
+
<br>06:39    Greenling   Fwoosh, zip, whee!
-
<br>10:21 Namhwa gestures to Sunny.
+
<br>06:39    Greenling   "Okay, done. You stand there" he points to one place "and I'll be there." He points to a place outside the circle.
-
<br>10:22 Greenling "...Danaa'd's slimy tits. At least this means I'm not biting the spiders."
+
<br>06:40        Namhwa moves to the place that the Provider indicates.
-
<br>10:22 Greenling "Sit down, lemme get you a drink, this is gonna take a while."
+
<br>06:41    Greenling   "Ready?"
-
<br>10:22 Namhwa "You know the spiders?" Namhwa
+
<br>06:41        Namhwa nods.
-
asks in awe, wondering if they're the same ones that he encountered. He
+
<br>06:42    Greenling   He stands in place and raises his hands, looking towards the sky. Well, if there were a sky there, rather than a roof and a volcano.
-
sits at the little table in the corner and studies the Rudy-man
+
<br>06:42    Namhwa   Volcano?!
-
carefully.
+
<br>06:42    Greenling   ...You *are* in Gem.
-
<br>10:23 Greenling He looks at you like you're the crazy one, and takes off his garments.
+
<br>06:43    Namhwa   (Oh, right)
-
<br>10:24 Greenling (...the burial ones.)
+
<br>06:43    Greenling    You are standing in a volcano.
-
<br>10:24 Greenling (he has pants.)
+
<br>06:43    Greenling   :V
-
<br>10:24 Greenling Now
+
<br>06:43    Greenling   (*cough*)
-
that you look closer, he's... well he does look like Rudy, but he's got
+
<br>06:44    Greenling   He closes his eyes, and slowly, a beam of white light pours down on him from a point in the air.
-
longer hair, and you're pretty sure Rudy doesn't have that many
+
<br>06:44    Greenling    It runs down his fingers and over his arms like water, and coalesces in a soft glow around him.
-
tattooes.
+
<br>06:45        Namhwa watches the boy curiously. How can such a powerful being take such a fragile shape?
-
<br>10:24 Namhwa (Sure, sure. Naked bodies aren't anything weird to someone who studied cadavers anyway)
+
<br>06:45    Greenling   "Mountain of Light, Son of Fire..."
-
<br>10:24 Namhwa frowns.
+
<br>06:47    Greenling    "Your Eyes call on you! Revoke the Blessing You grant through me, forsaken in justice!"
-
<br>10:24 Greenling (hehe.)
+
<br>06:47    Greenling   The glow expands.
-
<br>10:24 Namhwa "Sorry for the mistake... But where's Mary?"
+
<br>06:47    Greenling   It touches the circle and waves around Namhwa. Rudy and Rei can see that same eye symbol on his forehead.
-
<br>10:25 Greenling "Right." He sits down and claps his hands together, looking firmly at you. "Mary doesn't exist."
+
<br>06:48    Greenling   "In the hidden name of the truth, I call on you! Do it!"
-
<br>10:26 Greenling "Well. Okay, technically she does sometimes."
+
<br>06:48    Greenling   There is a sudden flash, followed by what sounds like a small bomb going off.
-
<br>10:26 Namhwa "What?"
+
<br>06:50    Greenling    When the light clears...
-
<br>10:26 Greenling "Look, it's magic, okay? What was that about the spiders?"
+
<br>06:50    Greenling   Well... when you can *see* and *hear*...
-
<br>10:27 Greenling "I was totally not expecting to have to explain this shit to you yet."
+
<br>06:50    Namhwa   :/
-
<br>10:27 Namhwa "The spiders, who wear in the great void? I met one. He, it, whatever fussed at me for touching its web."
+
<br>06:50    Greenling   In a moment, The Provider is standing there, rubbing his ears.
-
<br>10:27 Namhwa looks up to remember.
+
<br>06:50    Greenling    "Wow. Ow. Is it supposed to be that loud?"
-
<br>10:28 Greenling "Great void. Uh. Yeah, doesn't ring a bell, but that could mean a lot of things."
+
<br>06:50    Namhwa   "I don't know, this is my first time."
-
<br>10:29 Namhwa "Well,
+
<br>06:52    Greenling   "Well, I think that worked."
-
it was like this huge textile mill that I once saw on the Blessed Isle,
+
<br>06:52        Namhwa shakes out each limb, one at a time.
-
except it was manned by, well, at least one spider that got -very-
+
<br>06:52    Namhwa    "I think I feel okay."
-
angry and said that I messed everything up by touching threads. Have
+
<br>06:52    Greenling    He leans over and sniffs you.
-
you ever been anywhere like that?"
+
<br>06:53    Greenling   "Hmmm. I can't think of a way to test it without putting you in mortal danger. That's going in the bug reports."
-
<br>10:30 Greenling He thinks for a moment. "And where did you, like, encounter this?"
+
<br>06:53    Greenling    "Maybe you could just go flirt with my sister and then apoligize profusely?"
-
<br>10:30 Namhwa "Sorry if I'm rambling. What's this about Mary not existing? She was with us
+
<br>06:53    Greenling   (*apologize)
-
all.... Well, it was an extraordinarily vivid dream in a sequence. I've been having a lot of them lately."
+
<br>06:53        Namhwa squints.
-
<br>10:31 Namhwa looks suspiciously at the man.
+
<br>06:54    Namhwa    "Well, what was the original function of your blessing?"
-
<br>10:33 Greenling He taps his chin. "That web thing, yeah. I've been there. Everyone has."
+
<br>06:54    Greenling   "To let me know if you were in danger, mostly. It also allowed me to send my children to you if necessary."
-
<br>10:33 Namhwa "Really?"
+
<br>06:55    Namhwa   "Oh, well why don't you try sending your, ah, children to me now?"
-
<br>10:34 Namhwa stands up. "Where's that drink? This is all quite a shock."
+
<br>06:58    Greenling   "...Hmmm. Good idea!"
-
<br>10:34 Greenling "Yeah. It's the backbone of the world, pretty much. Giant artifact in Yu-Shan."
+
<br>06:58    Greenling   "You go in the other room or something. We'll play hide and seek! Kind of. Go someplace I don't know where you are."
-
<br>10:34 Greenling He drags a bottle of something bitter out of his bag and tosses it underhand at Namhwa.
+
<br>06:59        Namhwa twists his mouth to think for a moment, then exits the storeroom.
-
<br>10:35 Namhwa reaches out reflexively to catch it with both hands.
+
<br>06:59    Greenling    Where do you go? And do Rudy and Rei follow, or what?
-
<br>10:35 Greenling "Don't have too much of that if you want to wake up before noon tomorrow."
+
<br>07:00        Namhwa heads out to the kitchens, then into the cold storage room to have a glass of milk.
-
<br>10:35 Namhwa "Wow... Backbone of the world? Where's Yu-Shan?"
+
<br>07:00    Greenling   Namhwa grabs a glass of milk.
-
<br>10:35 Namhwa nods and pops open the bottle to take a few swallows.
+
<br>07:01    Rudeth    Unless Namwha asks Rudeth to join him or Rei decides to run off, he will stay here with Rei,
-
<br>10:36 Greenling "Uh, Yu-Shan, Heaven. Where the Celestial gods live?"
+
<br>07:01    Greenling   If the two of you don't move, the Provider sits down beside you.
-
<br>10:36 Namhwa (Oh, dear, he's started drinking)
+
<br>07:01    Greenling   "So, how do you like Gem?" :3
-
<br>10:36 Namhwa "So the Celestial gods are real?!"
+
<br>07:02    Namhwa   (He's not talking to me. :P)
-
<br>10:36 Greenling "..."
+
<br>07:02    Rudeth    "It's nice." Rudeth scoots away a little.
-
<br>10:36 Greenling "Wow."
+
<br>07:04        Rudeth tightens his arms protectively around the half-sleeping catgirl.
-
<br>10:37 Namhwa takes another two swallows and passes the bottle back. "What? It's not
+
<br>07:05        Rei blinks as she was tugged up, yawning softly and peering up at the Protector from Rudeth's lap.
-
like they give a damn about us the way the City Mothers and Fathers do."
+
<br>07:06    Greenling   "You don't have to be afraid of me. I'm not going to eat you."
-
<br>10:37 Greenling "Shit, I should've read your file better before throwing myself at this mission. That dork..." He facepalms.
+
<br>07:08        Namhwa finishes his glass, then wonders if he should venture outside the restaurant.
-
<br>10:37 Greenling "One of them gives a damn about you."
+
<br>07:08        Namhwa decides against it, remembering Rudy and Rei's faith.
-
<br>10:37 Namhwa "My file?!"
+
<br>07:09    Greenling   The Provider looks up and closes his eyes.
-
<br>10:37 Namhwa "Really?"
+
<br>07:09    Greenling    ...Squint.
-
<br>10:37 Namhwa wishes he had the bottle back.
+
<br>07:09    Greenling    Opens them. "Well, we'll see."
-
<br>10:37 Greenling He grins. His grin is rather disturbing.
+
<br>07:09    Greenling    "Hey, you guys never ate anything. Aren't you hungry? Don't humans have to eat every day?"
-
<br>10:38 Greenling "Hehe. Yeah. That's why I was surprised when I saw you."
+
<br>07:09        Rudeth looks at him strangely, keeping an eye on him.
-
<br>10:38 Namhwa "I think that might've been what the irritable arachnid was talking
+
<br>07:10    Greenling   He frowns.
-
about." Cho glances back, wondering how much interaction this guy gets with normal people.
+
<br>07:10   Rudeth    "Um...Well, I guess." Rudeth *is* pretty hungry. "If we can get...normal human food from the restaurant."
-
<br>10:38 Greenling "When you went missing for ten months Heaven was worried."
+
<br>07:11    Greenling   "Sure. Whatever you want, on me. We have a lot of silver."
-
<br>10:38 Namhwa "What was so surprising?"
+
<br>07:12    Greenling   "...My sister says I'm wasting it, but I'm not very good with money."
-
<br>10:38 Namhwa "Missing? From Heaven?"
+
<br>07:12    Greenling    "Ah, what does she know. Do you have any siblings?"
-
<br>10:38 Namhwa "I mean, are you a Celestial god?"
+
<br>07:12        Namhwa pokes around in the kitchen, getting slightly in the way of the cooks if they're still around.
-
<br>10:38 Greenling "From our sight."
+
<br>07:12    Rudeth    "No." He pauses. "Well, I don't think so. I wasn't raised by my parents."
-
<br>10:39 Greenling "Hah. No."
+
<br>07:13    Rudeth    "I guess just some sort of seafood thing for me and Rei. She's probably hungry, too."
-
<br>10:39 Greenling "But I serve one."
+
<br>07:14    Greenling    "Okay. When Cho comes back, I'll order it."
-
<br>10:39 Namhwa looks faintly excited.
+
<br>07:14    Greenling   After a moment, he starts idly doing those little acrobatics things like he did on the pedestal.
-
<br>10:39 Greenling "...Five. But mostly the one."
+
<br>07:15        Namhwa crouches in a corner beside a cool cistern and sits in the shadows.
-
<br>10:39 Namhwa "Really? I served Grandmother Bright. What's it like? Why do you keep files on people?"
+
<br>07:16        Rudeth tilts his head, starting at him. "So, um... is it working?"
-
<br>10:39 Greenling "And technically everything else in a sort of morally-duty-like way.
+
<br>07:17    Greenling   "I dunno. I called one of my children... it should be *somewhere*."
-
<br>10:39 Namhwa gestures for the bottle back if the man's not going to drink any more.
+
<br>07:17    Greenling    Suddenly, there's a scream.
-
<br>10:40 Greenling "But..." handwave.
+
<br>07:20        Namhwa stands up and listens to try to see from what the direction the scream came.
-
<br>10:40 Greenling He hasn't taken any.
+
<br>07:20    Greenling   From the far end of the kitchens.
-
<br>10:40 Namhwa "But?"
+
<br>07:20    Greenling    Then a couple more screams.
-
<br>10:40 Greenling "Okay, look. This is the important part."
+
<br>07:20    Greenling   Some people running past Namhwa.
-
<br>10:41 Namhwa "Okay."
+
<br>07:21        Namhwa runs in the opposite direction of those fleeing.
-
<br>10:41 Namhwa sits back down.
+
<br>07:21    Greenling    There is what looks like an oversized tiger made out of crystal.
-
<br>10:41 Greenling "You and Rudy and the rest of them, something weird's going on. You're not woven into that web, and that usually only happens to things like ghosts and demons and raksha."
+
<br>07:22    Greenling    It has gears for joints and lacks a head.
-
<br>10:41 Greenling "And this is A: Probably Bad, B: Weird, C: Really problematic for you especially."
+
<br>07:22    Greenling   It comes over and... you would say it's sniffing you if it has a nose.
-
<br>10:42 Namhwa tries to keep up.
+
<br>07:22        Namhwa holds still.
-
<br>10:42 Namhwa "So what did I do wrong? What I can I do to fix this?"
+
<br>07:22    Greenling    (*had)
-
<br>10:43 Greenling "Since your being... well..." He switches briefly to Old Realm, which actually has tenses for this sort of thing. "You were going to be going-to-be one of what I am, and now you are and aren't."
+
<br>07:22    Greenling   It sits down.
-
<br>10:43 Greenling "And you should be because you're kind of needed."
+
<br>07:23    Greenling   The kitchen staff is hiding.
-
<br>10:43 Namhwa :O
+
<br>07:24        Namhwa backs away from the tiger very slowly, keeping his torso centered on the crystal cat.
-
<br>10:43 Greenling "We don't know why."
+
<br>07:24    Greenling    Still sittin'.
-
<br>10:44 Greenling "That's... officially why I'm following you around in disguise."
+
<br>07:24    Greenling   The Provider is standing on his head.
-
<br>10:44 Namhwa "Which part don't you know?"
+
<br>07:25    Greenling   "I'm bored. I'm gonna go look around."
-
<br>10:44 Greenling "Why you're outside of Fate."
+
<br>07:25    Greenling   He does so.
-
<br>10:44 Namhwa frowns.
+
<br>07:25        Namhwa calls the tiger over. "Come here, please," he says in Old Realm.
-
<br>10:44 Namhwa "This sounds atrocious."
+
<br>07:25    Greenling   The tiger stands up and walks towards you.
-
<br>10:44 Greenling "We just know it happened about ten months ago."
+
<br>07:25        Namhwa asks, "Please lead me to the Provider."
-
<br>10:44 Namhwa "I have been outside of fate for TEN MONTHS?!"
+
<br>07:26    Greenling   The tiger walks past you in the direction you came from.
-
<br>10:44 Namhwa "This is lunacy."
+
<br>07:26    Greenling   You meet him outside the Yellow Room, coming towards you.
-
<br>10:45 Greenling "Yeah."
+
<br>07:26    Greenling   "Oh, hi! Did it show up right?"
-
<br>10:45 Namhwa takes another sip from the bottle.
+
<br>07:26        Namhwa points at the Crystal Tiger.
-
<br>10:45 Greenling "About the time you went into the region around Gold's Glittering Pass."
+
<br>07:26    Greenling   He pats it on the back and it disappears in a puff of light.
-
<br>10:45 Namhwa leans forward onto his hand.
+
<br>07:26    Namhwa   "Yep, just sniffed and sat.
-
<br>10:45 Namhwa "And we met The Provider."
+
<br>07:26    Namhwa   "
-
<br>10:45 Greenling "The who?"
+
<br>07:27    Greenling    "Hmm."
-
<br>10:45 Greenling He narrows his eyes.
+
<br>07:27    Greenling   "It showed up beside you or someplace else?"
-
<br>10:45 Namhwa looks at the man with a bit of shock.
+
<br>07:27    Greenling    "That took a while."
-
<br>10:46 Namhwa "The Provider. We stopped at an Earth Aspected Manse, I believe, and met The Provider."
+
<br>07:27    Namhwa   "Someplace else first, then I found him... her... It."
-
<br>10:46 Namhwa "He was the guardian of the manse, apparently."
+
<br>07:28    Greenling   "Oh. Okay. Then it probably worked. Ah well." :<
-
<br>10:46 Namhwa "White Crow set him free."
+
<br>07:29    Namhwa   "Ooooh.
-
<br>10:47 Greenling He snorts a bit. Sunny goes over and licks his hand.
+
<br>07:29    Greenling   He hugs Namhwa.
-
<br>10:47 Greenling "...Your dog, here."
+
<br>07:30        Namhwa hugs the Provider. "I had fun, thank you."
-
<br>10:47 Namhwa looks affectionately at Sunny.
+
<br>07:31    Greenling   "You're welcome anytime, as long as we're here." ^^
-
<br>10:47 Namhwa "Yes. You're... Mary, right? You said you had a black dog."
+
<br>07:31    Namhwa   "Well, thank you. I look forward to seeing you again."
-
<br>10:48 Greenling He stares at her. "Your dog's like that too, except we can't find her at all."
+
<br>07:32        Namhwa goes to meet up with Rudeth and Rei, then probably to head back to sleep for the night.
-
<br>10:48 Namhwa :<
+
<br>07:32    Greenling    You may do this.
-
<br>10:48 Greenling "Heh. You can call me Thrall when I'm not faking it."
+
<br>07:32    Namhwa   "You guys had quite a bit."
-
<br>10:48 Namhwa "Okay, Thrall. Thank you. Like what? Like me?"
+
-
<br>10:49 Greenling "You seem to be really attached to her, but there's no record of her existence, no place she touches your thread."
+
-
<br>10:50 Greenling "There's your wife, your family, that chick you screwed, the river dragon that attacked your boat that one time, but no golden dog."
+
-
<br>10:51 Greenling "So, uh, 'scuse me if I'm a little curious." He's still looking at Sunny. Sunny just wags her tail and looks confused.
+
-
<br>10:51 Namhwa looks embarrassed and disturbed.
+
-
<br>10:51 Namhwa "She was a gift from my parents."
+
-
<br>10:52 Namhwa "Well, I suppose she's not really property. She and I... we look out for each other. She's the only one who cares about me anymore, and can see past my mistakes. It helps that she's a good listener."
+
-
<br>10:56 Namhwa reaches over and strokes Sunny affectionately, right around her spine where she's a little ticklish.
+
-
<br>10:58 Greenling Sunny does the footthumpy thing.
+
-
<br>10:58 Greenling "Heh."
+
-
<br>10:58 Namhwa smiles.
+
-
<br>10:59 Greenling "So, uh."
+
-
<br>10:59 Greenling "You're not gonna mention this, right?"
+
-
<br>10:59 Namhwa "Yeah. What can I do to help? Absolutely not! I'm... well, I am now a very discrete man."
+
-
<br>11:00 Namhwa takes another sip from the bottle.
+
-
<br>11:00 Namhwa (Manipulation 1, Temperance 2... The only saving grace is Socialize and Willpower)
+
-
<br>11:00 Greenling "Heh. That's good."
+
-
<br>11:00 Greenling "Tell me about where you were, what you did..."
+
-
<br>11:01 Greenling "Half the reason I'm here is to fix what you're breaking. The other half is to keep you alive.
+
-
<br>11:01 Namhwa "Okay...So, we entered the manse's... Hearthroom, I think it's called. There we met what appeared to be a small boy, but was wise beyond his years. He
+
-
spoke in Old Realm."
+
-
<br>11:02 Greenling He nods.
+
-
<br>11:02 Namhwa "He promised not to eat us, so long as we were in Creation. He said he
+
-
liked me in particular, and called himself only The Provider."
+
-
<br>11:02 Namhwa "Let's see, what else."
+
-
<br>11:03 Namhwa "Sunny was particularly afraid of him, which is extremely unusual."
+
-
<br>11:04 Greenling "...He actually *said* 'eat'?"
+
-
<br>11:05 Namhwa "Yes.
+
-
<br>11:05 Namhwa "Well... Full protection."
+
-
<br>11:05 Greenling Snort.
+
-
<br>11:05 Greenling "Huh?"
+
-
<br>11:05 Namhwa clarifies. "He said we had his full protection at the manse, and he
+
-
promised never to eat any of us so long as we were in Creation."
+
-
<br>11:06 Namhwa "He also remarked that I had full access to his library and knowledge, and
+
-
that I would make a strong opponent one day. It was all very puzzling,
+
-
but I wasn't about to pass up an offer like that."
+
-
<br>11:06 Greenling (technically he said *you* had his full protection. though Namhwa may remember differently. :3)
+
-
<br>11:06 Greenling "Strong opponent. Huh."
+
-
<br>11:07 Greenling "So he knew what you were going to be."
+
-
<br>11:07 Greenling "Yeah, sounds like a demon. A strange one."
+
-
<br>11:07 Namhwa (That parsing escaped me! XD)
+
-
<br>11:07 Greenling He flinches slightly and rubs his eyes.
+
-
<br>11:08 Greenling (what parsing?)
+
-
<br>11:08 Namhwa (Me with full protection, not everyone)
+
-
<br>11:08 Namhwa "We suspected as much. He said he was..."
+
-
<br>11:09 Namhwa "Under the Green Sun."
+
-
<br>11:09 Greenling (ah.)
+
-
<br>11:09 Greenling "...Greeeat."
+
-
<br>11:10 Greenling "I don't know that guy having any little boys offhand, but I haven't exactly memorized them all yet."
+
-
<br>11:10 Namhwa "The Provider?"
+
-
<br>11:11 Greenling "The Green Sun."
+
-
<br>11:11 Namhwa "Oh."
+
-
<br>11:11 Greenling "...Was there anything else you needed at the moment?"
+
-
<br>11:11 Namhwa shakes his head.
+
-
<br>11:12 Namhwa "I don't think so. This is all rather mind-blowing."
+
-
<br>11:12 Greenling "Okay. My boss needs me at the library, so that's where I'll be for the time being."
+
-
<br>11:12 Namhwa "Okay. I'll make up some excuse for you."
+
-
<br>11:12 Namhwa "If anyone asks, I mean."
+
-
<br>11:12 Namhwa stands up, a little unstable.
+
-
<br>11:12 Greenling "Thanks. If you die, or let Rudy die, while I'm gone, I'll find a way to make you reincarnate as a seaslug, got it?"
+
-
<br>11:12 Namhwa "Are you kidding? I'm a doctor!"
+
-
<br>11:13 Namhwa "How long are you expecting to be?"
+
-
<br>11:13 Greenling "Yeah, and you'd make the smartest goddamn seaslug in Creation... probably an hour or two."
+
-
<br>11:13 Namhwa :D
+
-
<br>11:14 Namhwa "Okay, great. I expect we'll be down at the theater."
+
-
<br>11:14 Greenling "You do that. 'Ware the Abyssal."
+
-
<br>11:14 Namhwa "Can I find you there if an emergency... Emerges? What abyss-el?"
+
-
<br>11:15 Greenling "Heh. Just if you see a guy with a black hole on his head, try to stay away."
+
-
<br>11:15 Namhwa nods seriously.
+
-
<br>11:15 Namhwa "Of course."
+
-
<br>11:16 Greenling "Right." He stands up and extends his hand. "Cho Namhwa. Good to meet you for real, you seem like you'll make a decent co-worker, yada yada, I'm sorry you seem to be straight."
+
-
<br>11:17 Namhwa smirks.
+
-
<br>11:17 Namhwa "It's been a pleasure, Thrall."
+
-
<br>11:17
+
-
Namhwa stands and shakes Thrall's hand.
+
-
<br>11:17 Greenling "Like hell it has," he smirks back at you.

Revision as of 02:10, 18 July 2009

Last we left our three travellers... and Sunny... Who for her part is staying under the table and trying to hide from the Avenger... The Provider was about to lead Cho Namhwa back into another room and attempt to revoke his blessing from him.


"...Are you *sure* you want me to do this?" The little blond demon rocks back on his heels and gives Namhwa the most adorable sad look he can muster.

"Absolutely, chingu," Namhwa uses an affectionate Seatongue term of endearment. "Your blessing, while most welcome, is obviously not meant for a being of Creation. Thank you again for all that you've done for me." Namhwa tries to reassure the creature he still thinks of as a boy.

"Aw. Okay," the Provider says with a note of disappointment.

The Provider leads Cho into a large room with boxes of things pushed against the walls to make space in the center. "I'm going to wash this off. I'll be back in a second." Namhwa peers at the boxes curiously, but they're all generic-looking unmarked closed boxes so Namhwa relaxes and waits.

The Provider heads into another room. One can hear some slight splashing.

Rei leans into Rudeth, buzz of the drink starting to fade and leaving a happily sleepy Rei.

...My, that's a large shadow all of a sudden. Rudeth keeps an arm around Rei, watching the Provider's family carefully. Namhwa shadows his eyes, wondering if the "darkness" a trick of the light.



06:35 Greenling It looks vaguely like the back end of a... horse? Ish? If the horse was about twice the size of Peyt.
06:35 Greenling And then, it's gone.
06:36 Namhwa frowns.
06:36 Greenling The Provider walks out clean and with new clothes.
06:36 Greenling "'Kay. Done."
Your Doom Awaits You
Topic set by Rudeth on Thu Jul 09 2009 06:36:35 GMT+0300 (Arabic Standard Time)
06:36 Namhwa smiles at the Provider.


Topic set by Rei on Thu Jul 09 2009 06:37:29 GMT+0300 (Arabic Standard Time)
06:37 Rei Whoop
06:37 Greenling He smiles back. :3
Your Doom Awaits You - Have Correct Change
Topic set by Rei on Thu Jul 09 2009 06:37:39 GMT+0300 (Arabic Standard Time)

06:38 Rei slumps over to land, head in Rudeth's lap, yawning softly as she lays there.
06:38 Greenling He walks over to a smaller box, picks out a piece of chalk, and runs arund drawing what seems to be a magic circle.
06:38 Greenling Sunny watches closely.
06:39 Greenling Fwoosh, zip, whee!
06:39 Greenling "Okay, done. You stand there" he points to one place "and I'll be there." He points to a place outside the circle.
06:40 Namhwa moves to the place that the Provider indicates.
06:41 Greenling "Ready?"
06:41 Namhwa nods.
06:42 Greenling He stands in place and raises his hands, looking towards the sky. Well, if there were a sky there, rather than a roof and a volcano.
06:42 Namhwa Volcano?!
06:42 Greenling ...You *are* in Gem.
06:43 Namhwa (Oh, right)
06:43 Greenling You are standing in a volcano.
06:43 Greenling  :V
06:43 Greenling (*cough*)
06:44 Greenling He closes his eyes, and slowly, a beam of white light pours down on him from a point in the air.
06:44 Greenling It runs down his fingers and over his arms like water, and coalesces in a soft glow around him.
06:45 Namhwa watches the boy curiously. How can such a powerful being take such a fragile shape?
06:45 Greenling "Mountain of Light, Son of Fire..."
06:47 Greenling "Your Eyes call on you! Revoke the Blessing You grant through me, forsaken in justice!"
06:47 Greenling The glow expands.
06:47 Greenling It touches the circle and waves around Namhwa. Rudy and Rei can see that same eye symbol on his forehead.
06:48 Greenling "In the hidden name of the truth, I call on you! Do it!"
06:48 Greenling There is a sudden flash, followed by what sounds like a small bomb going off.
06:50 Greenling When the light clears...
06:50 Greenling Well... when you can *see* and *hear*...
06:50 Namhwa  :/
06:50 Greenling In a moment, The Provider is standing there, rubbing his ears.
06:50 Greenling "Wow. Ow. Is it supposed to be that loud?"
06:50 Namhwa "I don't know, this is my first time."
06:52 Greenling "Well, I think that worked."
06:52 Namhwa shakes out each limb, one at a time.
06:52 Namhwa "I think I feel okay."
06:52 Greenling He leans over and sniffs you.
06:53 Greenling "Hmmm. I can't think of a way to test it without putting you in mortal danger. That's going in the bug reports."
06:53 Greenling "Maybe you could just go flirt with my sister and then apoligize profusely?"
06:53 Greenling (*apologize)
06:53 Namhwa squints.
06:54 Namhwa "Well, what was the original function of your blessing?"
06:54 Greenling "To let me know if you were in danger, mostly. It also allowed me to send my children to you if necessary."
06:55 Namhwa "Oh, well why don't you try sending your, ah, children to me now?"
06:58 Greenling "...Hmmm. Good idea!"
06:58 Greenling "You go in the other room or something. We'll play hide and seek! Kind of. Go someplace I don't know where you are."
06:59 Namhwa twists his mouth to think for a moment, then exits the storeroom.
06:59 Greenling Where do you go? And do Rudy and Rei follow, or what?
07:00 Namhwa heads out to the kitchens, then into the cold storage room to have a glass of milk.
07:00 Greenling Namhwa grabs a glass of milk.
07:01 Rudeth Unless Namwha asks Rudeth to join him or Rei decides to run off, he will stay here with Rei,
07:01 Greenling If the two of you don't move, the Provider sits down beside you.
07:01 Greenling "So, how do you like Gem?" :3
07:02 Namhwa (He's not talking to me. :P)
07:02 Rudeth "It's nice." Rudeth scoots away a little.
07:04 Rudeth tightens his arms protectively around the half-sleeping catgirl.
07:05 Rei blinks as she was tugged up, yawning softly and peering up at the Protector from Rudeth's lap.
07:06 Greenling "You don't have to be afraid of me. I'm not going to eat you."
07:08 Namhwa finishes his glass, then wonders if he should venture outside the restaurant.
07:08 Namhwa decides against it, remembering Rudy and Rei's faith.
07:09 Greenling The Provider looks up and closes his eyes.
07:09 Greenling ...Squint.
07:09 Greenling Opens them. "Well, we'll see."
07:09 Greenling "Hey, you guys never ate anything. Aren't you hungry? Don't humans have to eat every day?"
07:09 Rudeth looks at him strangely, keeping an eye on him.
07:10 Greenling He frowns.
07:10 Rudeth "Um...Well, I guess." Rudeth *is* pretty hungry. "If we can get...normal human food from the restaurant."
07:11 Greenling "Sure. Whatever you want, on me. We have a lot of silver."
07:12 Greenling "...My sister says I'm wasting it, but I'm not very good with money."
07:12 Greenling "Ah, what does she know. Do you have any siblings?"
07:12 Namhwa pokes around in the kitchen, getting slightly in the way of the cooks if they're still around.
07:12 Rudeth "No." He pauses. "Well, I don't think so. I wasn't raised by my parents."
07:13 Rudeth "I guess just some sort of seafood thing for me and Rei. She's probably hungry, too."
07:14 Greenling "Okay. When Cho comes back, I'll order it."
07:14 Greenling After a moment, he starts idly doing those little acrobatics things like he did on the pedestal.
07:15 Namhwa crouches in a corner beside a cool cistern and sits in the shadows.
07:16 Rudeth tilts his head, starting at him. "So, um... is it working?"
07:17 Greenling "I dunno. I called one of my children... it should be *somewhere*."
07:17 Greenling Suddenly, there's a scream.
07:20 Namhwa stands up and listens to try to see from what the direction the scream came.
07:20 Greenling From the far end of the kitchens.
07:20 Greenling Then a couple more screams.
07:20 Greenling Some people running past Namhwa.
07:21 Namhwa runs in the opposite direction of those fleeing.
07:21 Greenling There is what looks like an oversized tiger made out of crystal.
07:22 Greenling It has gears for joints and lacks a head.
07:22 Greenling It comes over and... you would say it's sniffing you if it has a nose.
07:22 Namhwa holds still.
07:22 Greenling (*had)
07:22 Greenling It sits down.
07:23 Greenling The kitchen staff is hiding.
07:24 Namhwa backs away from the tiger very slowly, keeping his torso centered on the crystal cat.
07:24 Greenling Still sittin'.
07:24 Greenling The Provider is standing on his head.
07:25 Greenling "I'm bored. I'm gonna go look around."
07:25 Greenling He does so.
07:25 Namhwa calls the tiger over. "Come here, please," he says in Old Realm.
07:25 Greenling The tiger stands up and walks towards you.
07:25 Namhwa asks, "Please lead me to the Provider."
07:26 Greenling The tiger walks past you in the direction you came from.
07:26 Greenling You meet him outside the Yellow Room, coming towards you.
07:26 Greenling "Oh, hi! Did it show up right?"
07:26 Namhwa points at the Crystal Tiger.
07:26 Greenling He pats it on the back and it disappears in a puff of light.
07:26 Namhwa "Yep, just sniffed and sat.
07:26 Namhwa "
07:27 Greenling "Hmm."
07:27 Greenling "It showed up beside you or someplace else?"
07:27 Greenling "That took a while."
07:27 Namhwa "Someplace else first, then I found him... her... It."
07:28 Greenling "Oh. Okay. Then it probably worked. Ah well." :<
07:29 Namhwa "Ooooh.
07:29 Greenling He hugs Namhwa.
07:30 Namhwa hugs the Provider. "I had fun, thank you."
07:31 Greenling "You're welcome anytime, as long as we're here." ^^
07:31 Namhwa "Well, thank you. I look forward to seeing you again."
07:32 Namhwa goes to meet up with Rudeth and Rei, then probably to head back to sleep for the night.
07:32 Greenling You may do this.
07:32 Namhwa "You guys had quite a bit."
