Quote 8403

* Mary_jane`^ walks over to the computer and calls off the alarm
<AlcarGM> The alarm goes off. You have a lot of messages asking "WTF was that?!"
<AlcarGM> only in politer terms.
* Mary_jane`^ stands at her computer for an hour or so typing up a reasonable explenation without actually saying what it was... while not lieing about it either =p
<AlcarGM> .. Ah! Politics.
<Mary_jane`^> exactly

Quote 8404

<AlcarGM> You've spent a week at Camelot, fixing up the areas, trying to find hackers willing to help you, putting out press releases and bleeding money like reformed AA members at the bar come closing time. The first match is scheduled for tomorrow, assuming you get anything who can acutally fight with a sword fighting in it.
<Mary_jane`^> tsch, I am so charging for advertising and addmission
<Mary_jane`^> I'm going to make a proffit off of this mofo if it kills me ;p
<AlcarGM> So far most of the applicants have been actors, aspiring kids just off the farm who've come to find their destiny accompanied by a wise mentor who got drunk, sold them to Hutt Trading Co. and buggered off into the great unknown, a few mercenaries who are promising if you want people killed, and SPCA members :p
<AlcarGM> You may die to regret those words :)
<AlcarGM> YOu also have a few people showing up thinking this is some kinbd of game, and asking to be knights and wizards, like in "That VR game, you know? The new one: Legends of Zorrelda."

Quote 8405

<AlcarGM> Lancelot: "On a minor note, the castle has no armoury."
<Mary_jane`^> "Seriously? What's there?"
<AlcarGM> Lancelot: "An empty room."
<Mary_jane`^> "Oh! that's right. It's in hell."
<AlcarGM> he blinks. "Pardon?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Arthur has this weapon fetish."
<Mary_jane`^> "Arthur has this weapon fetish."
<AlcarGM> Lancelot gives you the blank look of someone who considered a single armoury amateur fetish, at best.

Quote 8406

<AlcarGM> The dwarven mine is rather easy to find. Dwarves may be masters at hiding their actual homes, bt the giant smoke stacks and mining machinery tend to give it away
<Mary_jane`^> "Aha!"
* Mary_jane`^ walks over to the mines then
<AlcarGM> You walk over, and find several dwarves milling arounr outside. ONe of them is working, the rest observing. Obvious the dwaven version of city employees :p
<Mary_jane`^> "Uhm, excuse me." To the busy one =p
<AlcarGM> Dwarf:: "Hi ho, hi ho, it;s off to - " in a deep baritone, then spots you and says, in a woman's voice. "Err. hello. Hi."
<Mary_jane`^> "Uhm, hi. I'm looking to obtain some weapons and armor?"
<AlcarGM> The dwarf frowns. "Appointment?"
<AlcarGM> The head dwarf frowns at you, then turns as pale as someone under a beard can. "She - does not need one."
<Mary_jane`^> "Oh ah.. I need to schedule one." Nodding. "Is now a good time?"
<AlcarGM> The head dwarf nods eagerly, so much so that his dwarf issue helmet fals off, hits the ground, and cracks oipen. You spot the "made on Taiwan IV" sticker before he picks it back up. "Certainly, ma'am. What do you require?"

Quote 8407

* alcar is now known as AlcarGM
<AlcarGM> Were you planning to do anything special chatting with the generals and Lance?
<Mary_jane`^> you mean like suddenly bust out a knife and kill everybody?
<AlcarGM> besides the obvious.

Quote 8408

<Mary_jane`^> "Are you a spy?"
<AlcarGM> <Lancelot> "Hmm?"
<Mary_jane`^> "A spy, from that dwarf?"
<AlcarGM> <Lancelot> "I've never met the dwarf before, so no."
<Mary_jane`^> "I see."
<AlcarGM> <Lancelot> "Why do you ask?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Because there are some things about you that resemble him."
<AlcarGM> <Lancelot> "I do not come from somewhere Else, remake planets, or am a dwarf. Given the legends of dwarf size, we may be similarly endowed in one respect, but I hardly think that merits comment."
<Mary_jane`^> "No, that's not it..."
<AlcarGM> (( "It's not?!" ))
<AlcarGM> <Lancelot> "Are you sure?"

Quote 8409

* Mary_jane`^ goes to take a shower and do the same, waiting for the end of the day.
<Mary_jane`^> "Hey Tad..."
<AlcarGM> The day comes to an end, for lack of something better to do like take a romp though the woods and rape twilight.
<AlcarGM> Tad: "Yes?" sleepily, waking.
<Mary_jane`^> "Let's go visit the Fate."
<AlcarGM> Tad: "..... uhm .... why?"
<Mary_jane`^> "You know that feeling you get after you've been alone for a long time, and then suddenly something new happens?"
<AlcarGM> Tad: "Being alive?"
<Mary_jane`^> "That's why..."

Quote 8410

<AlcarGM> Clotho is busy crying, ignoring you. Lachesis is hugging her and Atropos just nods, walking over to you and looking calm and unconcerned now
<Mary_jane`^> "You could smile once."
<AlcarGM> Atropos: "I try not to. It frightens people."

Quote 8411

<AlcarGM> Atropos: "one such as you hardly has to. You - are strange, you know that?" she cocks her head, like a bird, studying you. "I see chaos in you. With a wing. It makes.... no sense, but more sense than it should."
<Mary_jane`^> "I AM chaos. Well I try to be. The wing, I dunno..."
<AlcarGM> (( :p ))
<Mary_jane`^> (( I'm not fond of breaking the fifth wall, but as long as this is as far as it goes whatever ))

Quote 8412

<AlcarGM> Clotho: "You - " *sniff* "you're NOT Chaos. The dragon saw it, but won't remember. It's .... *wrong*, and alive, and it hate us."
<Mary_jane`^> (( God dammit alcar if you bring amber into this I swear I'll stop playing right now =p ))
<AlcarGM> (( LOL! Oh? :p ))
<Mary_jane`^> (( If I want to play amber, I'll play amber. This is risus ))
<Mary_jane`^> I'm not joking about the amber thing. I'm very sore from the last time I played the world and I think it's a cheap world to begin with

Quote 8413

<Chaos`^> anyway, i guess you'll have to redo your plot =p
<tatterdemalion> which one? :)
* tatterdemalion has lots
<Chaos`^> the damned amber one
<tatterdemalion> what amber one?
<Chaos`^> good

Quote 8414

<Mary_jane`^> aha!
<Mary_jane`^> I know what I'll do that will make your day hell
<AlcarGm> oh? :p
<Mary_jane`^> I'll go to heaven!
<AlcarGm> What makes you think you aren't already there? :p
<Mary_jane`^> God hasn't shown up and threatened to do bodily harm?
* Sparkie is busy.
<Mary_jane`^> cute
* Sparkie is that, too

Quote 8415

<Mary_jane`^> "Perhaps you were more discrete than I was."
<Mary_jane`^> "The one thing I haven't learned in five hundred years is that I should only pick the battles I know I can win."
<AlcarGm> Jesus: "I praded into a town on an ass to raise a prick from the dead I hadn't even liked. I was many things: discrete was never one of them."
<Sparkie> You mean the ones I'm not allowed to use dice for :(
<Mary_jane`^> exactly
<Mary_jane`^> "Yes well, there's something to be said about forgiveness as well."
<AlcarGm> Jesus: "You have to allow yourself to be forgiven first."
<Mary_jane`^> "That's Arthur's shortcomming as well."
<Mary_jane`^> "I should go find him. It was fun talking to you."
<AlcarGm> Jesus smiles slightly. "And that of all honest men, I suspect." He nods to you. "Merry part."
<Mary_jane`^> "Don't hesitate to say hi next time you see me"

Quote 8416

<Mary_jane`^> "I think you had been torchering yourself since Merlin took control of your actions."
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "I like to think he did. But I let him, at some point. I agreed with him."
<Mary_jane`^> "Indeed."
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "The funny thing is that i feel sorry for him, now. Sometimes. He had his own burdens, and I never noticed."
<Mary_jane`^> "Merlin's only burden was his quest for vengence against the god who wronged him."
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "Sometimes burdens look a lot like gifts."
<AlcarGm> he shakes his head. "I am not sure who wronged him, if anyone. Or myself. But I let him seduce me with promises of power."
<Mary_jane`^> "He sought power, so that he may some day... I don't know, punish god? Resurect his lover?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Power can change a man."

Quote 8417

<Mary_jane`^> "Indeed. Lancelot does not need a king. He is no longer a knight."
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "He need *something*."
<Mary_jane`^> "He needs a friend."
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "..... Oh."
<AlcarGm> He considers that. "I could try it?"
<Mary_jane`^> "I'm sure you could. How hard would the urge to order him to do something be, though?"
<AlcarGm> Arthur: "Probably, very. We were friends, yes. But he was always so ... intense. I thinkhe scaredme, somewhat, even before he went mad."
* Mary_jane`^ nods
<Mary_jane`^> "Your curiosity is one of your downfalls. Even with Galahad, your question was more than just in passing. You were considering actually telling him to stay."
<AlcarGm> Arthur pauses, the considers that. "Perhaps. I test people," with a shrug
<Mary_jane`^> "So what makes you think you would be successul at being Lancelot's friend, but not his king?"
<AlcarGm> Arthur:" "Because he scares me."
<AlcarGm> (( *snickers* ))

Quote 8418

<Mary_jane`^> "Where's Nora?"
<AlcarGm> Satan: "Nora?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Nora, the half-succubus lady?"
<AlcarGm> Satan: "Oh. Her."
<AlcarGm> Satan: "Last I knew, having an argument."
<Mary_jane`^> "Where?"
<AlcarGm> Satan: "Purgatory. With .. her ancestor, I believe."
<Mary_jane`^> "I don't suppose you could make the door go there?"
<AlcarGm> Satan smiles at that. "No. It's .. outside of Hell."
<Mary_jane`^> "Didn't think so."
<AlcarGm> Satan: "I throw the rejects there."
* Mary_jane`^ hmms and just uses power to go to where Nora is
<AlcarGm> Satan: "Like Peter. He was always losing the keys to the front gate.... "

Quote 8419

* Mary_jane`^ hmms and just uses power to go to where Nora is
<AlcarGm> (( this could get.. awkward.... ))
<Mary_jane`^> (( Why do you say that? ))
<AlcarGm> You vanish, and appear in the middle of a cross between a battlefield and an orgy. Perhaps it's both. Living and dead bodies, corpuplating, decomposing, killing and loving in some mad passion play out of Stephen King's head.
<AlcarGm> (( Well, Alcar's head, but Stephen King sounded better. ))
<Mary_jane`^> "This is Awkward."

Quote 8420

* Mary_jane`^ consults the three experts on magic in her head "Any suggestions?"
<AlcarGm> Tad: "..... drag her out of here NOW before she does something stupid?"
<AlcarGm> Tad: "Stupider?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Stupider isn't a word... And I can't drag her out until I find her soul. How do you get a soul back?"
<AlcarGm> Snake #1: "She's still herself."
<AlcarGm> Tad: "Well, it *should* be a word."
<Mary_jane`^> "A word?"
<AlcarGm> Tad: "Of course! If we can think it, it has to be real. Somewhere. Or somewherer!"
<Mary_jane`^> "The word or the soul?"
<AlcarGm> Snake #2: "I fear my brother is right."
<AlcarGm> Tad: "The word, of course."
<AlcarGm> Tad: "Are you feeling okay?"
<Mary_jane`^> "What kind of word? I can't let her leave here without her soul... I would have to kill her."
<AlcarGm> Tad: "Stupider!"
<Mary_jane`^> "IT'S NOT!"
* Mary_jane`^ clenches her teeth "About the soul?"

Quote 8421

* Mary_jane`^ looks around for a gate to heaven =p
<AlcarGm> Ypou don't see one. You do see barbed wire in the sdistance. and shapes manning lkines, with high powered assault rifles. You can See they are angels. it seems heaven is thataway. And .. under heavy guard.
<AlcarGm> Probably Homeland Security.

Quote 8422

<Mary_jane`^> "That's not the point. the point is that you decided to become a demon, and you know what that means."
<AlcarGM> Nora: "I did not decide to. It just happened."
<Mary_jane`^> "Well I am going to see what I can do about reversing that."
<AlcarGM> Nora: "And no, I have no idea what that means. I don't think anyone does. Your point?"
<AlcarGM> She blinks, then narrows her eyes. "What I am is *my* business, MJ. Not yours."
<Mary_jane`^> "It is when you force me to promis to kill you otherwise."
<AlcarGM> Nora: "Excuse me?"
<Mary_jane`^> "You don't remember? You made me promise that if you ever become a full demon that I was to kill you."
<AlcarGM> You can fee her power like a dark, rolling cloud of energy inside he. There's a LOT of it.
<AlcarGM> Nora: "Actually, I don't. And guess what? I changed my mmind."
<Mary_jane`^> "You can't change your mind when you're a demon. It doesn't work that way."
<AlcarGM> Nora: "Duh! I just did."

Quote 8423

<AlcarGM> Nora: "I am still Nora," firmly.
<AlcarGM> No one answers you.
<Mary_jane`^> "Nora the demon."
<Mary_jane`^> "Follow me."
<AlcarGM> Nora: "And you wonder why I never answered your message."

Quote 8424

<Mary_jane`^> "Now where is Tyler..."
* Mary_jane`^ looks up at the ladder and shrugs, jumping on it and climbing it =p
<AlcarGM> You leap up a mile and land on the alien Jacob's Ladder. In direct defiance of the laws of cosmic narrative, nothing at all interesting happens.

Quote 8425

<Mary_jane`^> "Gabe, how are you at making souls?"
<AlcarGM> Gabe: "Making souls?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Nora is short one."
<AlcarGM> Gabe looks at Nora a little more. "Oh. Do you want one?"
<AlcarGM> Nora: "What, like for a ornnament?"
<Mary_jane`^> "What? Ofcourse she does!"
<AlcarGM> Nora: "Why? I had one. I lost it. It's not like losing car keys."
<Mary_jane`^> "Right, it's like losing the car."
<AlcarGM> (( nice :P ))

<Mary_jane`^> "I just thought it was bad luck."
<AlcarGM> He grins. "Bad luck?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Well yeah, all these things just start happening around me... And I meet the strangest people just by sitting down..."

<Mary_jane`^> "Define Absorbtion."
<AlcarGM> AI: "I, personallyt, recommend channeling it into a tantric sex spells."
<AlcarGM> AI: "Self-powered by assault. The most unstable but cheapest method."
<Mary_jane`^> "I'd like to know a little about it, but I want something more stable."
<AlcarGM> AI: "Not proof against all forms of energy attack. Warranty is only valid in A+ conntinuums."
<AlcarGM> AI: "Righty-o. Basic stopping power. Solar level good? Great. Basic absorption so you don't melt local planets, I assume? More environmentally Friendly. You'll get a SpellCo inside label on your spell."

Quote 8441

<Mary_jane`^> "Ok, then the games will have to be tomorow. We'll start at 5am, I can hold it 8 hours after the shield falls."

* Mary_jane`^ sighs
<Mary_jane`^> "Assuming Gabe could hold them for a half hour, we may be able to hold it off indeffinately, unless this was just a small sample."
* Mary_jane`^ taps her finger on her hip "Unless...."
<AlcarGM> He raises an eyebrow
<Mary_jane`^> "Alright, as soon as the games start, the solar system will disapear. That should stop the attacks durring the games."
<AlcarGM> Lancelot staresd at you. "Is that all?"
<Mary_jane`^> "What do you mean?"
<AlcarGM> Lancelot: "Just disappearing it?" dryly
<Mary_jane`^> "I was going to ask Gabe if he would move it, too. Why?"
<AlcarGM> Lancelot smiles. "Good. You'lllneed to reroutre all media signals to come and go from here, to be safe."

Quote 8442

<Mary_jane`^> "How can it be broken?"
<AlcarGM> Snake2: "I was hoping you knew."
<Mary_jane`^> "Let me see..."

<AlcarGM> Snake2: "I can't let you do that," firmly. "You need help!"

<Mary_jane`^> "Fine, fine..."

<AlcarGM> Mimir: "Why wouldn't I be?"
<Mary_jane`^> "Because you tried to kill me! Twice!"
<AlcarGM> Mimir: "I .. did? Why would I have done that?" she demands
<Mary_jane`^> "I have no idea, it's what you do!"
<AlcarGM> Mimir: "... there must be a reason," a trifle desperately.
<AlcarGM> (( "Perhaps I am secretly in love with you!" ))
<Mary_jane`^> "You don't need a reason to try and kill people!"
<Mary_jane`^> "Stand up, we're going for a walk."
* Mary_jane`^ grabs her shirt (god forbid i touch her) and helps her up
<AlcarGM> She gives you a confused, frightened look, but does stand. "Why?"

<Rich`> (( It's the quiet ones you gotta watch. ))

<Rich`> (( How long if we take off-road shortcuts? ...j/k. ))
<AlcarGM> (( 2.5, unless you hit a sasquatch :p ))
<Maxx`-`> "Alright well wake me up when we get there."
<AlcarGM> You wish to talk during this three hour trip that winds through small roads, a few highways, and a scattering of towns?
* Rich` doesn't speak again unless spoken to.
<AlcarGM> .. very cautious driver.
<Rich`> (( introverted. Except when shooting people in the neck. ))

Quote 8467

<AlcarGM> You find some water after an hours walk, a small oasis of three white palm trees and some green-blue water. A snake is swimming in the water, its skin shed like an overcoat on the ground beside the pool
* Maxx`-` picks the skin up and uses that as the primary band for the head dress
<AlcarGM> The snakes head pokes up from the water. "Excussse me," it hisses. "What are you doing with my ssskin?" in a rather courteous voice.
<Maxx`-`> "I was going to use it with this grass to make a head dress"
<AlcarGM> Snake: "Why did you not asssk?"
<Maxx`-`> "Didn't realize you where a talker"
<AlcarGM> Snake: "Sssso that makessss it right to take what is not yoursss, man?"
<Maxx`-`> "Do you still have a use for it?"
<AlcarGM> Snake: "Of courssse I do! I wear it!"
<AlcarGM> Snake: "Do you not wear your own skin, man?"
* Maxx`-` shrugs setting the snake skin aside and continuing on with the head dress of all grass
<AlcarGM> You manage to make some using grass blades and bits of the palm trees.
* Maxx`-` puts it on and stands tall and proud
<AlcarGM> "What are you doing?" the snake asks pleasantly, having gotten back into it's skin. It's a diamondback, the diamonds glittering under the sun like small stars, or a woman's smile when she becomes your best friend for ever and ever until debt do you part

Quote 8468

<Maxx`-`> (time to go dumpster diving)
<Maxx`-`> well that and people watching

<Maxx`-`> then again a guy in a purple sweat suit with a lamp shade as a mask is bound to drive people off
<AlcarGM> You think? :p

<Elana-Silvereye> I already have the character all made up, she just has to have gone back in time
<Elana-Silvereye> and ya know, she doesn't have ties to her former organization anymore, seeing as she has gone back in time, and defected twice
<Elana-Silvereye> ^_^

Quote 8470

<AlcarGM> Old man: "I do NOT wear any kind of mask, young man. I am an honest man!"
<AlcarGM> The woman reaches both of you, panting a little. "Reginald, dear, remember what the doctor said about your blood pressure!"
<Maxx`-`> "Well in any case, I've seen behind the mask."
* Maxx`-` turns and starts his way on out less he is stopped
<AlcarGM> The old man mutters something about "satanists", but his wife pulls him away and says you're probably a very nice person, and besides, they have the same lampshade at home so you can't be all that bad/.

<Mary_jane`^> "Wanna take bets?"
<AlcarGM> Grey: *Then why do they produce that much energy? It is wasteful. They should produce progeny with it.*
