<DeathStar> Date: 10-654.9.3
<DeathStar> Location: Aquarius
<DeathStar> *The Aquarius continues to push it's limits; system errors continue to pop up due to their sheer speed and warnings pop up due to the hull knocking itself half to death as the shields struggle to compensate for the speed*
<DeathStar> *now and again, the three spirits continue to have issues synching together as they continue their journey, due to their own stresses, which doesn't help*
<Seraphna> **Cookie does her best to temper emotions and sync them, Thena supporting Cam'dee, Nox supporting Mire best she can**
<DeathStar> *Yuki looks perturbed*
<DeathStar> *leaning back in her seat*
<Alicia> * Jikuu attempts to support Aimee and Melodie, and trying to be more understanding than she was before
<DeathStar> <Yuki> The fact is Mireille and the others aren't meant to be run this hard and for this long
<Seraphna> Cookie> THink we can afford a day off in space? Let them recharge and center themselves?
<Sara> <Erica> This is not great, yes
<Jackieness> <Airym> "How much time would we lose by cycling down so they cna rest?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> See? Genius minds!
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "If we didn't have to use so much power, we could try relay..."
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Only issue with that is getting the ship started up again. It could take a while for the ship to cool down, then get the spirits back in synch, and then gt it moving again. It might take a day to even get us back up
<DeathStar> <Yuki> How close are we?
<Seraphna> Cookie> Would that take us more or less time than if it breaks down entirely?
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Unless we're close, we should rest. A final push is a lot different than a continued forced march."
<DeathStar> *Ben seems to be eyeing something on his computer* We might have an issue either way. We're probably day and half away from the target. But...
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Ben, what do you have to report?"
<DeathStar> *he turns in his chair* <Ben> Something has been overriding Mireille's pod since yesterday and forcefully attacking overriding her.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Explain."
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Can we rely on the others to pick up the slack? It's sounding like it's dangerous to use Mireille regardless."
<DeathStar> <Ben> Since sometime yesterday, one of the prototype spirits hacked Mireille and began to override and forced synch her to her. IT's one reason the synching between the three has slowly been getting better. They've overriden Mireille's control of the ship. They're the master spirit of the PAX.
<DeathStar> *Asarar raises her eyebrows*
<DeathStar> *Bonnie stands up and heads to the Aux Bridge*
<DeathStar> *Aquarius
<Seraphna> Cookie> What?
<Jackieness> <Bella> *is just inside the aux bridge, standing guard*
<DeathStar> <Ben> They've kept it low key, You barely can notice it since they've kept to just the engines.
<Sara> * Erica rubs her temples
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Taiga, cycle us down and begin any necessary repairs. Ben, lead the investigation."
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Right.
<DeathStar> *She moves off*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I guess I'll have to tell Chelsea
<DeathStar> *she heads to the Aux*
<Seraphna> *Nox frowns, looking irritated**
<Seraphna> Thena> Must be good for Cam'dee to not pick up on it.
<DeathStar> <Cam'dee> Hm. Sorry.
<DeathStar> <Ben> The fact is Aimee or Melodie both can override type of mechanical device they touch.
<DeathStar> <Ben> Especially networks
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "How does this affect our ability to travel?"
<Jackieness> <Airym> "And one of them used this ability on Mireille's connection to the Aquarius."
<Seraphna> Nox> Well we're gonna have a talk cuz this ship isn't theirs to take. And they might be helping the sync but they could have pushed us wildly off course.
<DeathStar> <Ben> It goes beyond that. Tora's notes indicate she feared they could override spirits, or at least ship spirits. It was one reason Mireille was put into action over the stronger Aimee and Melodie
<Seraphna> Nox> This is intergalactic travel, being off by even a little bit could lose us forever.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Yuki, check astronavigaiton to confirm that we are still on course."
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "... and we can hardly tell them they *have* to keep moving until we're back on track."
<DeathStar> *The Aquarius pops out of hyperspace and Yuki checks everything* We're perfectly on course. And making good time too. A little over a day if we keep making this pace
<Seraphna> **Nox eyes Mire's pod in concern**
<DeathStar> *Mireille emerges from the pod, looking smokey*
<DeathStar> <Mireille> Why... we stopping? *She wobbles*
<Seraphna> **Nox pulls her close and starts giving her energy and checking her over**
<Seraphna> Nox> Just checking out an anomoly in the system.
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Health concerns."
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Announce to the crew that we are stopping to let the crew and spirits recuperate and perform repairs."
<Seraphna> Nox> Let's get your refreshed while we have the break.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "do not make mention f system anomalies as that could put the party on the defensive."
<Seraphna> **Nox seems to have realized that already, bridal carrying Mire to get a snack**
<Seraphna> Nox> Cake and relax time.
<DeathStar> *Ben watches Nox go with Yuki* Also, another factor is Nox. *once she's out of the room*
<DeathStar> <Ben> That has been introduced into Mireille's pod
<Seraphna> Cookie> Huh? Figured she was helping Mire?
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Elaborate."
<DeathStar> <Ben> Her pod is finely tuned. Anytime she's charged with Nox's energy and it goes into the pod, it's getting fed energy that's not meant to be supported. We're going to have who knows what dark energy fluxations down the road
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Is that an issue with the secondary pod?"
<Alicia> *pods if appropriate
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Then she will need to be convinced to not interact with Mireille's pod."
<Seraphna> Cookie> I'll nudge her mentally.
<DeathStar> <Ben> There's only the primary one on the bridge and the secondary ones on the Aux which Melodie and Aimee are in right now
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "And I thought we wouldn't need to get into politics to be crew here..."
<Seraphna> Cookie> Oh Nox means well, but spirits don't often understand the tech they interact with.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Oh, we leave politics and punching the politics to Erica
<Sara> <Erica> Heh
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "I'll tell Jikuu to avoid adding energy to the Aux pods if needs be... and I wish we could leave politics to her, but the situation with Mireille, Aimee and Melodie is a microcosm of politics."
<DeathStar> Location: Hapian Castle
<DeathStar> <Soren> The air outside is breatheable, even if the sky is greenish. *guards are outside the castle gates now, protecting it* There doesn't appear to be much nearby in way of villages or people
<DeathStar> <Fae> The spirit realm entrance in the hallway seems to take you much deeper into the planet, near a strange creepy forest, while the castle itself out the front door seems to be near the ocean
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... the colortion may be due to trace gases or wavelengths of light."
<DeathStar> <Celes> Wavelength of light?
<DeathStar> *she sips tea provided by the kitchen staff*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I'm sure I could tell you which, but I'm not sure it matters." *scans the atmospheric composition anyway*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> So are we going to try to fly the castle back? <Selena> That seems a waste now that we're here
<Jackieness> <Lana> "The wavelengths of light favor a more greenish tint asperceived by our eyes. I'm sure a hosuefly would have a completely different experience."
<Seraphna> Terra> Terra might be able to help with forest. Terra always good with forests.
<DeathStar> <Neekito> So what is our plan? Splitting up seems unwise
<Seraphna> Alita> Seems someone got here, as there are something like sentient beings here already. Or maybe they just evolved naturally since the ancient Croza first had these coordinates?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "We're going to study this place, at least for a while."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "We need to set up an expedition! First, we should make sure the castle's immediate environment is safe."
<Seraphna> Talia> Taliamek is a large world. Talia must conquer any fish people that dwell here.
<DeathStar> <Kito and Neekito> We can remain behind and protect it
<Sara> <Liana> Sorry... fish people?
<DeathStar> <Soren> If there is fish people here, I will volunteer to do so as well
<Seraphna> Talia> **nods** Talia saw them in books. They use tridents.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "If there are actually fish people here, Talia should be kept far away."
<Sara> * Liana mouths 'what?'
<DeathStar> <Celes> Do not mind that one; she is partially crazy
<DeathStar> *pats Liana's hand*
<Seraphna> **Alita whispers** She's been reading some of the earth student's literature they bring to the academy.
<Seraphna> Alita> I believe they're called comic books. They don't seem very comical though.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...of course, the spirit portal connects to a different location for a reason... though I do not know what that reason might be."
<Seraphna> Terra> Each world must have own Spirit Realm.
<DeathStar> <Edna> Perhaps.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "It's interesting that spirit particles colour the sky green..."
<Seraphna> Terra> Maybe this world has Spirits! New friends!
<DeathStar> <Soren> I'd check with Avenir but she's still not quite -- you know..
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Mmm..."
<Seraphna> Terra> And Fox Lady too far to make her smile. Hmph.
<DeathStar> <Selena> So
<DeathStar> <Selena> Which area should we explore first?
<DeathStar> <Selena> The ocean area or the forest?
<Seraphna> Terra> Ominous Creepy Forest?
<Seraphna> Terra> Bet there's lot sof cool fruits!
<Sara> <Liana> I would swear half of this group cares only of food
<Seraphna> Terra> Liana no like fruit...? **she looks shocked, shocked!**
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I'm for the forest. It's more familiar to me, and the ocean is harder to really... well, we can't breathe underwater."
<DeathStar> <Celes> It does feel that way. *she notes while eating some sweets from the kitchen*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhhh... the ocean area is more immediate... though again, the forest connection must exist for a reason."
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "I'm concerned about the amount of people that find a habitable planet, and immediately go to thoughts of annexing it."
<Seraphna> Alita> A few of us can keep guard in case of maurading fish people.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Me too..."
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "ESPECIALLY, when the world is likely already inhabited."
<DeathStar> *Fae hands Nicolette a cute flag with Sylph's face*
<DeathStar> <Fae> So no planting this?
<Seraphna> Talia> What's an Annie-ex? I just want all the fish!
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "No, we're not colonising an inhabited planet!"
<DeathStar> *it shows Sylph blowing out wind*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... a planet this far from Geyze would not be ideal...
<Seraphna> Terra> And no planting this? **holds out a flag with a sleeping Gnome on it**
<DeathStar> *Origin makes a noise at the two*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Sorry, but no. No flags."
<Seraphna> **Terra looks conspiratorially at Fae**
<DeathStar> *it scoulds them more*
<DeathStar> *scolds*
<Seraphna> Terra> Okay, we be good, Origin has deep philosophical point.
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "As for what to do first... it's much easier to explore a forest than an ocean. We have legs, after all. And I don't like the idea that it connects directly to the castle."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... thank you, Madam Origin."
<DeathStar> *the floating, usually blueish colored sprit like Origin, looks reddish at Terra for a moment, then returns to it's normal color*
<Seraphna> **Terra offers Origin a fruit**
<DeathStar> *it accepts and lands, having it*
<Seraphna> Amber> Ah, spirits can be so cute at times.
<DeathStar> <Selena> Alright. Lets prepare a group and head into the forest
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Most of the time."
<DeathStar> *Origin moves under Nicolette's hat*
<Seraphna> Amber> **muses, looking Ceil over curiously**
<DeathStar> <Celes> Hm. Liana, what so you want to do?
<MobileAri> * Nicolette ponders adjusting her attire to safari-wear, but then sighs a little. Almost nostalgic
<DeathStar> <Gwen> You know, I've noticed something
<DeathStar> *He stands up, grabbing some supplies*
<Seraphna> Talia> What's that? **hops on his shoulder as a cat**
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Hmm?"
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh?"
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Are we going somewhere?"
<DeathStar> <Gwen> No sign of that Nyarl thing since we left
<Jackieness> <Lana> "An expedition through the forest portal."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Maybe we've reached a place it can't reach?"
<DeathStar> <Gwen> I thought it was suppose to be everywhere
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... the Shining Trapezohedron was taken befor eI could seal it away again."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I thought the spirit realm was, too."
<DeathStar> <Selena> Lets not dwell on a small favor
<DeathStar> <Selena> If we can avoid that thing for a time, lets be thankful
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Yeah, there's too many possibilities to list, but it's something to think on."
<Seraphna> Alita> I have a slight theory on that.
<DeathStar> *Selena prepares to go to the hanger* Yes?
<Seraphna> Alita> I think the entity is focused around the tree, as it is sort of a branching pathway between realities.
<Seraphna> Alita> We have in a sense moved as far away from the conflict as possible. The outskirts where survivors might go during a loss.
<DeathStar> *Celes rises* I'll remain here
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "That's reassuring."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Maybe... but... that should not affect its reach, assuming the Crawling Chaos is still active."
<DeathStar> <Celes> Good luck to you. *She pats Liana's back*
<Seraphna> Alita> Well I don't speak of reach so much as focus.
<Seraphna> Alita> We are in the shadows right now, far away from concerns.
<Seraphna> Terra> To the forest~ to the forest we go!
<Sara> <Liana> A bit exhausted from all the adventure, huh? *she teases Celes as she prepares to go*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I wish we could just treat this as a camping holiday..."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "There is no telling what we might stumble on..."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "That's why we can't."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "But that's exciting in its own way."
<DeathStar> <Celes> I'll keep an eye on Luna
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "The world isn't ending. That's a type of holiday, right?"
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "...I wish I could argue."
<DeathStar> *Selena laeads through the hallway and into a strange jungle - the trees being shaped more thin than Geyze's*
<DeathStar> *But are definitely crowded together*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> I wonder what type of animals are going to eat us
<DeathStar> <Selena> Lana - Ceilidh - any samples?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Carnivores... or blood sucking bugs."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "The trees are specifically adapted for high density with their thin trunks relatively to their overall mass."
<DeathStar> *Gwen looks ill at the bug thought*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh looks at scans
<DeathStar> <Gwen> High...density?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "They're trying to be strong without being large."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I wonder if there's a lot of strong winds here."
<DeathStar> *Selena heads into the forest, following what looks to be a path*
<DeathStar> <Selena> This way
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "If there's intelligent life here, it's probably this way."
<Seraphna> **Terra looks around, feeling out through the forest**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Unless its an animal trail, though the fact the portal opens right to this trail makes it unlikely."
<DeathStar> *The forest is heavy im spirit particles and energy - thriving in it and something else*
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "I could try to divine if this is a natural path, but..."
<Seraphna> Terra> I feel... like there's more than spirit here.
<Seraphna> Terra> The forest feeds on the spirit energy but it's pulling from something else too.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Let me..." *weaves her ethereal console and then starts scan spells*
<DeathStar> *the path is partially natural, but right as they keep walking, it is blocked by a wall of trees - the path continuing throug them*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Was there another path?
<Seraphna> **Terra muses, then starts asking the trees to move for them**
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "This is really strange... I feel like the spirits made this."
<DeathStar> *The trees bulk up when Terra asks*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> I think that was a fu
<Seraphna> Terra> **Blinks, trying again with a bit more will in it**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...still trying to get a clear reading on the other energy source."
<DeathStar> *They become even larger*
<Seraphna> Terra> Might be cuz I'm a stranger. Not like in my woods.
<Alicia> * Ceilidh tries to determine if the source of the spirit particles is past the trees
<DeathStar> *Ceilid determins that is a lot of it behind the trees at least*
<Seraphna> Terra> Not want to fight the trees. But think they are charged to protect the source.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "They might be."
<Seraphna> Terra> We not here to harm it, we want to meet other spirits! **she pouts**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "I cna't even get a read on the energy feeding this place."
<MobileAri> * Nicolette curiously waves to one of the trees
<DeathStar> *Origin chirps*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Should we cut it down?
<Seraphna> **Terra curiously sets some fruits at the tree roots, as if offering**
<DeathStar> *The tree leans toward Nicolette as she waves, as if noting her*
<Seraphna> Terra> From my world. Mix, grow strong.
<DeathStar> *Then a branch takes a fruit*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "I would not advise harming any of the trees."
<DeathStar> *As Lana says that more trees have moved in behind them*
<DeathStar> *some standing behind Liana*
<Seraphna> **Terra smiles at it taking her gift, they are her basic energy fruit**
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Ah! I thought so. Not just average plants."
<Seraphna> Terra> Yes no harm. We can be friends with.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I'd say that goes without saying..."
<DeathStar> <Gwen> W-We're surrounded
<Seraphna> **Terra looks around** Are you... like the Ents?
<DeathStar> *Gwen looks around*
<Seraphna> **Terra says again in Ent and plant talk** Hello, I am Terra!
<DeathStar> *one of the trees makes a noise, a rustling sound*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... ahem... our spirits would like an audience with your spirits. Please."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "We come in peace, even if... ah, do you speak?"
<Seraphna> **Terra nods, musing and trying to understand** New dialect.
<DeathStar> *Ceilidh would hear what sounds like rustling and creepy movement, then suddenly, the trees all seem to shift to the side and sink into the ground, revealing a meadow up ahead*
<Seraphna> Terra> Thank you! **she pats the ground**
<DeathStar> *Gwen eyes the ground warily*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Now, lets not threaten the trees any more. Please."
<DeathStar> <Selena> ... *she slowly steps toward the meadow*
<Seraphna> Terra> See? They nice if you make friends. Just like Ents!
<DeathStar> <Gwen> The Ents have boobs
<Jackieness> <Lana> "We just needed to say please." *nod nods*
<Seraphna> **Alita muses a bit and moves forward**
<Seraphna> Terra> I have boobs too. **she nods**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "If we meet the spirits of this place, we should let our spirits do the talking first until they are no longer wary of us."
<DeathStar> *the group arrive in an almost mystical, spirit filled meadow. Terra would feel her energy skyrocket*
<Seraphna> **Terra squeaks** Wow, feel lots of energy!
<DeathStar> *all around, spirit like building found in the realm can be seen*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I agree. Oh, this must be where the spirit particles are from!"
<DeathStar> <Selena> I wonder if these rel-- structures serve a purpose
<Seraphna> Terra> It's like a Spirit town?
<DeathStar> *Writings can be seen on the side, in the Proto langauge*
<Seraphna> Terra> We should have one at home too. With a tree fort. And bath.
<Alicia> * Ceilidh goes over to read them
<Jackieness> <Lana> *scans the writing and then tries to generate a holographic translation overlay for the rest of the team*
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Wow..."
<DeathStar> *Lana and Ceilidh, using what knowledge they have of the Croza language would be able to read that they are simple words for building names - one even says one is a "Restoration Chamber", another is a "Gathering Spot", etc*
<Seraphna> Terra> All these buildings, but where the spirits?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "There we go... my techno-magic auto-translator weave should let everyone read the sign that says not to walk on the grass."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I'm not sure... that seems important."
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Well, that's just polite."
<DeathStar> *by now, it looks like their being there has not gone unnoticed, as --- large, massive sprite like objects begin to float out and study them. They seem to be various colors, most blueish colored or greenish colored*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Grass takes a while to recover if you do step on it."
<Seraphna> **Terra gasps and waves** They look like big Origins!
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "They're here!" *looks excitedly happy*
<DeathStar> *Origin peeks out at them, a confused looking color appearing*
<Seraphna> **Alita bows her head revelently, her daughters peering about curiously**
<MobileAri> * Nicolette bows with a flourish of her hat.
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Uh, um.. this was not what I was expecting
<Jackieness> <Lana> "LEt the spirits talk to them."
<DeathStar> *one of the larger ones approaches them* <Who are you?>
<Seraphna> Terra> I'm Terra! I'm the Earth Spirit of Geyze!
<DeathStar> *They glance at each other, then at Terra*
<DeathStar> <Leader?> Welcome, Terra Earth Spirit of Geyze>
<Seraphna> Terra> My Momma is Gnome. And we came here on our castle.
<Seraphna> **Terra smiles and curtsies**
<Seraphna> Terra> We didn't know there were any other spirits left till now. It's so nice to meet you!
<DeathStar> *The sprite like beings peer at each other, making Origin like noises*
<DeathStar> <Selena> What do you think they're talking about?
<MobileAri> * Nicolette tilts her head, listening as best she can
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhh... can Oriign understand them?"
<DeathStar> *Origin makes a coo sound*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> I think it flirted with you
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhhh?"
<DeathStar> *the leader turns back to Terra*
<Sara> * Liana facepalms
<Seraphna> **Terrra smiles and waves at the leader**
<DeathStar> <Leader> <You have traveled far. You are welcome to stay here, Terra Earth Spirit of Geyze; you are guests>
<DeathStar> *The others make pleased sounds*
<DeathStar> *The large group of Proto Croza? begin to split up, going about their business, when two of them seem to be assigned as guides*
<Seraphna> Terra> Yay! **She smiles** I guess these two can show us around and help us learn?
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "If you are willing, we would be very interested in learning more about your people."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I hope so, learning is why I'm here!"
<DeathStar> <Guide 1> <Of course, honored one. What would you wish to learn?>
<DeathStar> <Selena> *Stands by Liana, musing*
<DeathStar> *clearly looking a bit sus*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... everything?"
<DeathStar> *The guide somehow blinks with it's sprite body*
<Sara> <Liana> Uh-
<Seraphna> Terra> Is your Spirit Realm just here in the open and not closed off? Ours we gotta do a special warp to get to.
<DeathStar> <Guide 1> <The trees protect it. I suppose we will begin with the trees, and then go over the planet itself>
<DeathStar> *it leads them to the trees*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Oh great, it took Lana literally
<Seraphna> Terra> So they are charged with protecting!
<Seraphna> Terra> Do you have sentient mortals like mine? **she points to the others**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "We could learn something."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Well, if I had the time, I'd want to learn everything too."
<DeathStar> <Guide 2> <If you mean other creatures besides us and our trees, no>
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Terra, please don't give them misconceptions. We don't need to cause trouble."
<Seraphna> **Terra nods** I think they got it.
<DeathStar> *The first guide has begun moved into the forest area and has begun to go over the pact with the trees, their spirit energy pact, and how they protect them; and how there is a massive forest in this part of the world. The lecture -- goes on for hours*
<Seraphna> Talia> THat or the Fish people are sly. **she nods**
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Aquarius
<DeathStar> *Yuki has brought everyone together in the meeting room*
<DeathStar> *Aimee and Melodie look innocent, while Mireille looks baffled, completely unaware of what happened to her still*
<Seraphna> **Nox cuddles her**
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Alright, Chelsea, we figured out which of the two did it
<DeathStar> <Melodie> IT wasn't me. <Aimee> I have no idea what you're talking about
<DeathStar> *Bonnie taps her fingers on her arm, looking annoyed* This delaying is taking me forever to reach Cloé. She's probably hiding somewhere out there
<Alicia> * Jikuu sits off to one side, looking frustrated.
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...So which was it?
<DeathStar> *Yuki shows the video of Jikuu, Aimee, and Melodie talking about crushes and whatnot, and even Melodie admitting she has someone she likes - Sparkling. It looks like at that moment, Aimee looks flabbergasted*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Aimee did it after that talk and you all went back into the pods
<Seraphna> **Cookie looks between them curiously**
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Ah, something seems off somehow..." *tries to read Aimee's feelings*
<DeathStar> *Melodie eyes Aimee, who seems furious at something* So what? Who cares about this stupid flight thing. *She kicks a chair* You two can do the stupid pod ship stuff together
<DeathStar> *Mireille has her eyes deadpanned so much, she's practically slitted*
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "... oh."
<Sara> <Chelsea> Good grief... *she buries her face in her hands*
<DeathStar> *Asarar Pats Chelsea's head*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Do you want to pull Aimee off?
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "I understand now."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Understand what?
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Can the drive be oeprated with just two spirits?"
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Why all this is happening."
<DeathStar> <Taiga> It'll add a lot more time, but since we're a lot closer...
<DeathStar> *Aimee begins to glare at Akatuki, practically getting ready to lunge* Don't say anything
<DeathStar> *Bonnie grabs her head*
<Seraphna> Cookie> Aimee are you jealous?
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "I won't. I understand enough not to want to interfere in things like this."
<DeathStar> *Aimee tries to turn her head to Cookie* <Melodie> Jealousy. About what? *Aimee makes a gutteral scream*
<Seraphna> **Cookie gets up and walks over to Aimee and sighs** Aimee.
<DeathStar> *Ben whispers to Erica and Airym*
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "... It's all up to Aimee to tell you, when she's ready."
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Then, and only then."
<Seraphna> Cookie> Aimee, mind if we go for a walk outside the meeting for a few? I wanna show you something.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Cookie, what are you intending?"
<DeathStar> <Aimee> .... .... .... *breathe heavy*
<DeathStar> *eyes Melodie warily as the other spirit seems to be musing*
<Seraphna> Cookie> To show her it'll get better. **she smiles sofrly**
<Jackieness> <Airym> "This situation is delicate. Tread carefully."
<DeathStar> *Bonnie lets go of Aimee and the teen Spirit rises*
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Don't push her to talk if she doesn't want to. These feelings are delicate."
<Seraphna> **Cookie nods and holds out a hand to Aimee** If you want of couirse.
<DeathStar> <Aimee> *mumbles and follows, just wanting to escape talking where Melodie can hear*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Taiga, Ben, updates on the ship status in the meantime."
<DeathStar> <Melodie> So... what is Aimee hiding from me? *She looks at the others* <Mireille> I could care fucking less
<Sara> <Erica> Hey, watch your mouth
<DeathStar> *Mireille jerks*
<Seraphna> **Cookie, mentally to everyone but Melodie** <She'll cooperate as long as we stop talking about it in front of Melodie.>
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> <Understandable... whatever their relationship, it's strong enough that... well, I'd be upset if Jikuu liked someone more than me.>
<Jackieness> <Airym> "The ship status reports."
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We'll need a few more hours to cool the hull down, then begin the process of starting the ship back up
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Ben, internal systems?"
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We should arrive at the target location sometime late tomorrow if there is no more problems
<DeathStar> <Ben> Thankfully the override problem is over. I think Aimee was shamed in this meeting. I'd need to tests to see if there were lasting problems. *he eyes Mireille's current bad girl attitude* Everyone should relax until we're ready to go in a few hours
<DeathStar> *Yuki rises and yanks Erica to their room* I'll see to it at least one Captain rests
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I'll put Yurica on duty
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Yuki, what is the crew report?"
<DeathStar> *Yuki hands Airym her report so far* Yurica will take over from here
<Seraphna> **Nox leans into Mire** Let's go relax some more.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Yurica, read out the crew report."
<DeathStar> *Mireille nods* Yeah. Things are getting tedious. *she heads for the cafe to unwind, going to put her hands in her pocket but not having any due to wearing her pod clothing* Drat
<DeathStar> *Aimee, after revealing who she is crushing on, runs and hides in one of the guest rooms*
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Unknown World
<DeathStar> <Guide 1> <And so, that is the summary of how the tree comes to be a senient being - giving them spirit energy and pacting with them>
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Why did that take so long to sum up
<DeathStar> *he lays on the ground*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh has been taking it all in, throughout the entirity.
<DeathStar> <Guide 2> <Continuing the you want to know everything tour>
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... what is next?"
<DeathStar> *The sprites float on, observing the ground now and begin to explain what how a planet is made*
<DeathStar> <Selena> ... I'm...going to go back to the castle
<DeathStar> <Selena> Mom?
<Sara> <Liana> I'll come with you...
<DeathStar> *Selena walks with her and heads back*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh listens intently, despite the advanced level
<DeathStar> *after a very detailed explanation - and it becoming evening, they go to the air, explaining how - outside it being normal air, due to the massive spirit energy of the planet, it's become infused with spirit particle, making it so you're breathing in spirit energy in a way. By now it's night*
<Seraphna> Terra> **Shares fruits with the Spirits**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...Ceilidh... this is major... if we cross reference this to what we already learned elsewhere..."
<DeathStar> *Gwen has now retreated*
<MobileAri> * Nicolette has been taking notes as well as a recording, utterly fascinated by the history of this world
<DeathStar> *The sprites float toward the ocean and begin to talk about oceans and what they are, going into a detailed explanation of oceans - complete with the fact there is spirit particles in them as well. So if you dared to drink the ocean water, you could drink the spirit particles*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Major is an understatement..."
<DeathStar> *Celes peers out the balcony at them down by the waters*
<DeathStar> <Celes> They're still at it
<DeathStar> <Celes> ... Well. Lets retire to bed
<Seraphna> **Terra asks questions mostly related to what things can grow everywhere, and what fruits can be found**
<DeathStar> <Guide 2> I suppose anything can grow, but that would be something to ask the trees. We do not deal with growing stuff as we do not need anything of the sort. Lets continue the tour
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> Date: 10-654.9.4
<DeathStar> Location: Unknown World?
<DeathStar> *the guides go into the history of the world a little as morning comes along - the name of the world has actually been forgotten due to how long it's been since they've dealt with other races*
<DeathStar> *the guides admit it might be written down somewhere or on one of their ancient machines, which they will unlock at the end of the tour, later*
<DeathStar> *returning back to the grove, they allow the group to study one of them, going over them*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *uses her scanning weaves*
<DeathStar> <Guide> This is our race. We are made of pure spirit. Feel free to experiment on this individual
<DeathStar> *the scans reveal a more powerful version of Origin, except the spirit energy is unique to this world while Origin's is unique more to Geyze*
<DeathStar> *Origin has fallen asleep during all this*
<DeathStar> <Guide> <If you need tools to experiment we will provide>
<Jackieness> <Lana> "They are all like Origin."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "This is a lot to take in..."
<Seraphna> **Terra has taken to showing the Trees all the things they can grow, flowers and fruits especially**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "I wonder if our spirits were changed by the croza, and these are what the spirits should ahve become like had their evolutionary path from Origin been natural."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I think that happened. I wonder why."
<Seraphna> Alita> Indeed, all the Spirits touched by the Croza appear to have been specialized. Though if I understand it correctly, our spirits are born from the spirit source and shaped one at a time, these may have all been born universal and grown over the many years.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "We know that Origin was Geyze's first spirit, and these spirits more resemble Origin than the rest of Geyze's spirits."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I think I have my answer as to why."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh?"
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "It's the specialisation that was the important part, though I'm still not sure if it was to better do specific jobs, or to be more controllable... I don't like it much either way. Spirits aren't something to control."
<DeathStar> *The guides study them*
<DeathStar> <Guide 1> It seems you have to some conclusions>
<Jackieness> <Lana> "More like speculation..."
<DeathStar> <Guide 2> <Are you done with the speciman?>
<DeathStar> *The sprite like spirit before them wiggles cutely*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh does a final examination type scan, before nodding
<DeathStar> *The guides dumn the cutting tools and let the speciman go*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhh... I think we've done all that we can now."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... an invasive inspection wasn't...ahhh... necessary."
<DeathStar> *floating toward the buildings, including the Restoration Chamber, allowing them to observe the smaller looking fluff balls to rest inside the building - the spirit energy in there seems to help them grow bigger again*
<DeathStar> *no need for core like chambers*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Observe... no spirit cores involved."
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "It's a little surreal, how similar, and yet alien, everything is."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I've felt that way before... but it doesn't make it any less surreal."
<DeathStar> <Guide 1> <This is all we are permitted to show you until you go to the ruins. Then we will continue answering any other questions,> *Guide 2 takes over, leading them away from the meadow*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ruins?"
<DeathStar> <Guide 2> <Yes. Do you wish for me to contact your friends to rejoin you?>
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I think that would be best."
<DeathStar> <Guide 2> <I will do that then.> *suddenly, Liana, Selena, and Cloé land in front of them*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "They probably weren't expecting ruins."
<DeathStar> *Cloé flail and rush behind Selena in a half repaired cat armor*
<Seraphna> Terra> Hey you're good at warping!
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "The lesson is over, it's time for the field trip."
<DeathStar> <Selena> Well. Maybe you can hit something mother
<DeathStar> *The guide floats and the group soon arrives at a large dead zone with a crevice; inside it is what appears to be a broken ship, looking to be crashed and purposely half buried. It almost appears to be Croza in nature but it's definitely Proto Croza, more so than the stuff the team has found on Earth*
<DeathStar> *Even the doors on the side look more designed for the sprite spirits*
<Sara> <Liana> They finally stopped talking huh *she says to Selena*
<DeathStar> *Selena nods, peering down* Well this is a pain
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Amazing. See the resemblance to later Croza designs? I wonder if the Croza found one of these ships and built their whole civilization on its technology."
<DeathStar> <Guide> It is possible; it might also be possible we changed the designs based on the type of race that would locate that might locate it>
<DeathStar> <Guide> <Records from long ago is missing in lots of places>
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I'm reminded of the way we use progenitor technology and fill in the gaps."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "We need to get down there to examine it further."
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Hmm... why hasn't the spirit energy left it's mark here?"
<DeathStar> *Cloé shimmies down the side of the ravine; then topples down after slipping*
<DeathStar> *landing on the side of the ship and looks dizzy*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhhh?" *tries to climb down*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Hm you would think. *To Nico, as she goes spirit form and flies Liana down with Lana*
<DeathStar> **Then goes back for Nico*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh creates steps, in an almost minecraft fashion
<DeathStar> *due to her small size, Cloé opens the small side door and crawls in*
<DeathStar> *As Ceilidh arrives*
<DeathStar> *The ship shudders a moment later*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Ah?"
<DeathStar> *a hanger door, much larger than the side, begins to open - large enough for a human size person to enter*
<DeathStar> *Cloé peeks out*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... a bigger door..." *plops down by the ship*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Alright, everyone ready?
<Seraphna> **Terra peers about, nodding**
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Wait... are we even going to fit?"
<DeathStar> *She steps in; the first thing they'd notice in the hanger, is a large device, almost like something they found on Geyze and Kumen*
<DeathStar> *or at least, a smaller version of it*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "It might be a tight squeeze." *heads in anyway*
<DeathStar> *it takes up almost all of the hanger*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *climbs into the hangar and then examines the device* "...this is like the devices we found."
<Sara> <Liana> Hmm...
<DeathStar> *the device seems long since dead and next to it is a computer like device, also dead, perhaps having information on the world it was meant for*
<DeathStar> *in the back of the ship is two smaller doors, leadnig into the ship*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "If we could somehow power it back up..."
<DeathStar> <Selena> I'll have to duck my head to go through them... *She eyes Cloé go right through the door*
<Seraphna> Terra> Maybe they were smaller people like Familiars.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Maybe."
<DeathStar> <Origin> <They were probably ships flown by us>
<DeathStar> *She finally speaks*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhhhh?"
<Seraphna> Terra> We can fly ships!? I wanna!
<DeathStar> <Origin> <I didn't feel comfortable speaking in front of them>
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Oh?"
<DeathStar> *Origin sits on Nico's head*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Why? They seem like you."
<DeathStar> <Origin> <Yes. Their phrasing when discussing Terra, made me unsure>
<DeathStar> *The ship's light flicker once along with cat yeow*
<Seraphna> **Terra tilts her head**
<Sara> <Liana> ...Ominous?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "What did they say?"
<DeathStar> <Origin> <They seemed to phrase it in a way as if to not consider Terra a true spirit exactly. It is hard to put finger on. It was almost like... spirit like maybe>
<DeathStar> <Origin> <Spirit adjacent?>
<DeathStar> *The lights come on with a boom and Cloe comes in, razzled and minus her cat armor*
<MobileAri> * Nicolette nods, "There was definitely a sense of... well, I wouldn't call it superiority. It was too... clinical, for that. But still, they haven't been anything but civil."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Perhaps they could sense her mixed parentage?"
<DeathStar> <Selena> Hm. Well, lets handle one thing at a time. Unless this is some trap
<Seraphna> Terra> Well, Terra is Half-Progenitor.
<DeathStar> *Selena starts up the device*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Ceilidh. Lana
<DeathStar> <Selena> Take a look at this
<Jackieness> <Lana> *nods to examine it*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh looks it over
<DeathStar> *it looks to be logs of where the Proto Croza were seeding the worlds for spirits - the true Origin like spirits. It goes back way back before even 12,000 years, dating back some eons, leading up to the rise of the Croza, which led to the destruction of the Proto race and their desperate last few seeds and then they stopped to save themselves. The data here could take ages to go through*
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "I'm not fluent, but it really seemed more like... they were intended spirits, and Geyze spirits were using the term incorrectly."
<DeathStar> *it appears something the Proto did created the Croza - splitting off from the Proto, which is irony since the Croza ended up in their own civil war*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I agree. I wonder... what happened with the Geyze spirits?"
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Normally, I'd take that as a real bad sign, but they've been rather accommodating?"
<DeathStar> <Selena> In all this information, do they have what led to the Geyze spirits being the way they are?
<DeathStar> *She eyes the huge chunk*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh goes through it, recording what she can't remember
<Jackieness> <Lana> "There is alot of data here... more than the installations on Geyze and Kumen have. This could be a more advanced repository than those."
<DeathStar> *it appears, the Croza interferred after coming across the Proto discovering the vast ability of what Spirits on Geyze and Kumen could achieve and meddled*
<DeathStar> *hence being there to 'guide' them*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Is it good or bad?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "I wonder if we could get this ship spceworthy and bring it with us where we will have more tiem tos tudy the data repository."
<DeathStar> <Cloe> You'd think they would let us?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "That would be a good idea. I just don't know how."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhh... I don't know."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "That, I have no idea."
<DeathStar> <Selena> Lets just take what we can and return to Hapian Castl------ *suddenly the Guide appears behind then, such that even Origin squeaks*
<DeathStar> <Guide> I am sorry to bother you, but you should return to your castle now. Something is about to happen
<DeathStar> <Guide> Would you like me to warp you?
<Sara> <Liana> Uhokayletsgoweweregonnagoanyway.
<Sara> * Her hair stands on end
<Seraphna> Terra> What's about to happen?
<DeathStar> *even Selena looks surprised at how the guide just came undetected, looking uneasy. Cloe's tail bristles*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Ah, I assume you want to keep this ship?"
<DeathStar> <Guide> You are thinking of ... taking it? *the last two words are in a strange questioning tone*
<Seraphna> Terra> They want to study it more at castle, might help us figure out how to go home.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "If it were possible, and if it were allowed. There is more information here than we are able to study in such a short time."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "We are wondering if it could be made spaceworthy again... but... it sounds like we have more important stuff coming up now."
<DeathStar> *The Guide sounds SUPER cheerful* I will ask our leader!
<DeathStar> *The group suddenly appears in the castle*
<Seraphna> Terra> I think helped be honest. I also think they don't like the machine on their planet.
<DeathStar> <Kito> You're back. The castle device began to pick up something approaching
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "If that's the case, I'd be happy to take it from them."
<DeathStar> *she motions at the secret room*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhhh?"
<Jackieness> <Lana> *goes to the room*
<DeathStar> *Celes is already there, as it pings loudly at something approaching at rapid speed*
<DeathStar> <Celes> Raise the shields?
<Seraphna> Terra> Did someone follow us? **she tilts her head** Probably good idea.
<DeathStar> *The second guide appears* Would you like us to destroy whatever it is?
<DeathStar> <Gwen> IT could be you know who
<Seraphna> Terra> No, let's see whjat is first. Might be my Momma.
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "A-ah! Do... you know what it is? Is it attracted to that device we were using?"
<Jackieness> <Lana> *tries to get the computer to show what is approaching*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I want to know what it is before we commit to any course of action."
<DeathStar> <Guide 2> Until it's on this world, I admit we do not know
<DeathStar> *Lana so far hasn't picked up on it - whatever it is, it's going at speeds that almost match the castle*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Lets wait and see.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... its moving fast. Can't get a clear read on it"
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Aquarius
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We're almost there. ... But... We have a new problem
<DeathStar> *she eyes the timer*
<Seraphna> Cookie> We do?
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We're going so damn fast we need to time our stop just right to make sure we don't over shoot the planet or crash into the planet
<DeathStar> <Taiga> No more restarting the super engine again
<Seraphna> Cookie> **She nods and closes her eyes, opening up her Ace of Spades**
<DeathStar> *Taiga turns to Erica, handing her control since Mireille is linked to her*
<Seraphna> **Cookie starts typing away to give them a head start and a few seconds warning**
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Remember, we need to get them to stop before the timer hits 0. *She tells Erica and Cookie.
<DeathStar> *The Aquarius begins to approach the final 10 seconds*
<DeathStar> 10
<DeathStar> 9
<Sara> <Erica> All right...
<DeathStar> 8
<DeathStar> 7
<DeathStar> 6
<DeathStar> 5
<DeathStar> 4
<DeathStar> 3
<Seraphna> **Cookie warns them to stop... now.
<DeathStar> 2
<DeathStar> 1
<Sara> * Erica stops it?
<DeathStar> -0-
<DeathStar> *Erica stops it right between 1 and 0, meaning she stops above the planet perfectly*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Cookie, set thrusters to station keeping. Ben, what do the sensors say?"
<DeathStar> *Mireille bounces out of the pod*
<Seraphna> **Nox catches her**
<DeathStar> <Ben> ... Well, it looks like...
<DeathStar> *a ton of sprites have surrounded them*
<Seraphna> **Cookie puts them in syncrnous orbit**
<DeathStar> *And below trees are aimed at them*
<Seraphna> Nox> Oh hi!
<Seraphna> **Nox waves, glowing with spirit energy**
<DeathStar> <Ben> I have detected the castle below
<DeathStar> <Ben> They are telling us to land next to it. *the sprites and trees seem to leave*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Take us down."
<DeathStar> -TBC-
* DeathStar changes topic to 'Geyze: Record of Spirit War | Wednesdays | 7:15 - 7:30 PM to 10:15 pm to 10:30 PM | Part II - Act 2 | Session 45: Universal Spirits | 3 of ? | '
<DeathStar> Both groups are open for minis
<DeathStar> Either on the ship or in the castle
<DeathStar> -Minis Open-
<DeathStar> *Aimee hides out in the cafe while Cloe peers to look at Bella*
<Jackieness> <Bella> "...so that is why I don't want to babysit."
<DeathStar> <Cloe> Mew? IT was that bad?
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Like... angry cats."
<DeathStar> *she jerks, eyeing herself,then at Bella* Huff
<DeathStar> <<Cloé> Aren't they like 16
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Ahhh... sorry..."
<DeathStar> *Aimee writes a note and slinks off to run away to the castle next door*
<DeathStar> *Bonnie lifts Cloé up and examines her for wounds8
<DeathStar> <Bonnie> ... You'll pass. *sets her back down by Bella and moves off*
<Jackieness> <Bella> "What was that about?"
<DeathStar> <Cloé> I think mom was worried about me. I also burnt myself after using my armor to charge something
<DeathStar> <Cloé> So what did I miss with you, Aka, and Jikuu?
<Jackieness> <Bella> "We were more along for the ride mostly. I pretty much just sat on the suxilary bridge while Aimee and Melodie were plugged in."
<DeathStar> <Cloé> Ow
<DeathStar> <Cloé> Well, I'm glad the team is back together
<DeathStar> *she looks around* Is Yurica in charge today?
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Sort of... Yuki dragged off Erica, though Airym is still in the captain's chair on the main bridge."
<DeathStar> *Mireille sips on a milkshake*
<DeathStar> <Cloé> I never finished my reports before I was castle-napped
<Alicia> <Jikuu> "I... mostly watched over the pair. I do not know how to act with Aimee. Akatsuki is so much better at that."
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Just say you have PTSD from the experience and gets s medical exemption."
<DeathStar> <Cloé> Where is Akatsuki? It's unusual for both Jikuus to be without their respective Akatsuki/Victoire
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Where is Aimee off to?" *has been heading over*
<Jackieness> <Bella> *shrugs*
<DeathStar> *Aimee is trying to get the servants to let he in*
<DeathStar> <Cloé> No idea.
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Anyway, heading for my bunk." *stands up*
<DeathStar> <Cloé> Talk to you tomorrow!
<Jackieness> <Bella> *gives a thumbs up and heads to crew quarters*
* Jackieness has quit IRC
<DeathStar> *Cloé looks at Akatsuki* You two are that worried about Aimee and Melodie? *Melodie seems to be staring at the stars in the observation, drawing*
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "I don't want any heartbreak... and the only way I can see to avoid it is to use one of Jikuu's family techniques."
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Even then... it'll take a lot of understanding."
<DeathStar> <Cloé> *blinks* You have a family technique? Wow
<DeathStar> <Cloé> You're cool
<Alicia> <Jikuu> "Ah... uhh... I do not know if it is anything to brag about."
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Come on, that level of harmony is really impressive."
<DeathStar> *Fate nods in agreement beside the two*
<Alicia> <Jikuu> "Ah, Fate! You're here too?"
<DeathStar> <Fate> I like to check in on my favorites.
<DeathStar> *it appears she has no problem manuevering the distance*
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "So, it's not that we're at a... momentous occasion? Basically, this isn't where the timeline diverges.
<Alicia> "
<DeathStar> <Fate> Oh no. I like to check in on you 4. *referring Akatsuki, Victoire, Jikuu, and Lil Jikuu*
<DeathStar> <Fate> Should I pass on anything to your siblings?
<Alicia> <Akatsuki> "Unless something life threatening is coming up, just that we're doing fine but... we might be stuck over here a while."
<Alicia> <Jikuu> "Should we let Sparkling know?" <Akatsuki> "Not yet, at least."
<DeathStar> <Fate> If you need me to pass on anything to Sparkling or grab her, let me know
<DeathStar> <Fate> I'm keeping an eye on her and helping her prepare
