Session Ident: #TAW-Session700
* Now talking in #TAW-Session700
* Dias` has joined #TAW-Session700
<DeathStar> Date: 10-660.7.24
<DeathStar> Location: Geyze
<DeathStar> *The Aquarius is currently parked outside the Academy where Yuki is leaning against the ship side, eating some food hungerily*
<Seraphna> Cookie> Want some brownies?
<DeathStar> *The Mirror Sylph is facing the sky, looking like she is busy in contact with something or someone, while Cloé is holding onto her sister*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Are they safe?
<Seraphna> Cookie> All my brownies are safe.
<Jackieness> <Bella> *tries getting her mom on the comm*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> You know what I mean
<Seraphna> Cookie> I have a few that don’t have special herbs.
<DeathStar> *Asarar's face appears on the screen; it looks at some construction site with Ymir*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Fine, give me some without the herbs
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Mom, wanted to let you know we're back, safe and sound from our last deployment."
<DeathStar> *The Mirror Sylph turns her head* Geb will bring your Sylph here shortly. But how are you going to get in touch with these Cleaners?
<Sara> * Erica eyes the brownies suspiciously
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Good. Make sure you stay that way then until I can get in touch with you.
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Sure. Waiting on the next mission to come down the pipe right now."
<Seraphna> **Cookie gives her clean brownies with sprinkles**
<DeathStar> *Selena thinks* I see no other way to get in touch with the Cleaners outside calling Avenir
<DeathStar> <Selena> Despite Simon's reservations.
<Seraphna> Terra> Avvy!!!
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Well, there are other ways but... we shouldn't use them. They'll cause too many problems."
<DeathStar> *Yuki munches on the brownies quietly*
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "I guess we should get their comm number one of these times."
<DeathStar> <Selena> I hate to use them, too. I have no love for them
<DeathStar> <Selena> But if the Prime Universe is slowly being torn apart by these micro time tears
<Seraphna> Terra> I called!
<Seraphna> Terra> Avvy must be shy.
<DeathStar> <Selena> Who else can we turn to?
<DeathStar> *Avenir peers behind Terra*
<Seraphna> Terra> Oh there’s Avvy~
<Jackieness> <Bella> *hangs up and heads over to Cloe*
<DeathStar> <Avenir> ... what am I being asked to do today?
<Seraphna> Terra> Save Momma reality with Time Powers!
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "... talking to the cleaners again."
<Seraphna> **Terra puts a cloak on her**
<DeathStar> *Aimee and Melodie just hang off Sparkling; for once they don't seem to have a lot of energy when it comes to Cleaner talk*
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "I still don't trust them, but we can't just... brush them off."
<DeathStar> <M. Sylph> Are these washer people that bad?
<MobileAri> * Nicolette smiles softly and give Avenir a small wave.
<Seraphna> Nox> More like super antisocial
<DeathStar> *Avenir fiddles with her hands almost neurotically, then nods*
<Seraphna> **Terra gives her a fruit**
<DeathStar> *Avenir holds it, then moves away from the group*
<DeathStar> <M. Sylph> I'll finish getting ahold of Geb and returning your Sylph to Ellie by the time your done.
<DeathStar> Song 1: Cleaners
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Thanks, Sylph."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... I hope they aren't angry when they show."
<DeathStar> *a little door way seems to open up in the middle of nowhere*
<DeathStar> <Avenir> They'll speak to us.
<Seraphna> Terra> Oh wow!
<DeathStar> *Avenir steps through*
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "I don't know, to be honest. They refused to help us against the eldritch beings, and then blamed us for fighting back against them, though."
<Seraphna> **Terra follows**
<DeathStar> <Melodie> Do we really want to enter?
<Seraphna> Nox> I’ll go. **heads through**
<Jackieness> <Lana> "To be fair... eldritch beings are supposed to be timeless, which means they are outside Cleaner jurisdiction."
<DeathStar> <Aimee> .... *Eyes Nox, then squints, following her*
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "And that matters why?"
<Alicia> * Sparkling heads through, though.
<MobileAri> * Nicolette follows after Avenir, quickening some to catch up
<DeathStar> *Selena steps through*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Remember, we're hoping they'll do something. Barring that, we're here to try to get Chronos
<DeathStar> <Selena> So lets not pick a fight if we can help it
<Jackieness> <Lana> *walks through* "It means they can't interfere in that... but time fissures are a different matter..."
<DeathStar> *the sterile areas all seem to look the same as Avenir leads the group through passage after passage of pure white*
<DeathStar> *leading them to one of the strangely shaped Cleaners, hanging in the center of a circular room. Origin peeks out of Nicolette's hat at the being*
<Seraphna> Nox> To be fair, their place lives up to their name. It’s super clean here.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I thought that was just a ...
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Nick name
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "It could use more decoration."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... it might not actually look like this... it could be just the way that we perceive it with out three dimensional senses."
<DeathStar> *Selena peers at Lana* What?
<Seraphna> Terra> Needs more fruit.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Higher dimensional perception could reveal that they have snack wrappers or throw pillows all over the place."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I think she's saying this room is actually so advanced, our brains would explode
<Jackieness> <Lana> *points at Yuki* "Like that!"
<DeathStar> *Yuki points at Erica* See? I'm learning
<Seraphna> Terra> Fruit is very advanced.
<DeathStar> <Cleaner> You. Back again. Time always in danger.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "They could have types of fruit in this room that you had never seen before because you cna't see them at all."
<Seraphna> Nox> We didn’t do it this time. I think.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "We didn't do it the last time either."
<DeathStar> <Cleaner> Why here? Did not approach
<DeathStar> *if one could have attitude among the cleaners, it would definitely be showing it*
<Seraphna> Nox> The other universe is falling apart with time tears.
<Xantop> 6* Simon is totally here the whole time and observes the Cleaners.
<Seraphna> Nox> We thought we should consult the professionals.
<Xantop> <Simon> We were hoping you would be able to assist us in understanding the situation they are currently in and how it may have happened.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Time fissures are not laughing matter... and... ahhh... we are the next adjacent reality."
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "I don't think any eldritch beings are involved this time?"
<DeathStar> <Cleaner> I will explain
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "And, y'know... if the prime reality falls apart due to time trouble, it'll likely be trouble for everyone, everywhere."
<DeathStar> *it takes a glass ball from Avenir, then surprisingly, breaks part of it off, before restoring the section with small cracks along the surface, then breaks another part, then another, then another, each time the damage glass ball retaining cracks along it, before the Cleaner just drops it on the floor, where it lifts it back into it's hand and reforms it with cracks all over the ball, shoddily reformed together* Now all it needs is one finger to push against it and it will fall apart. Something or someone has given that push
<DeathStar> *the Cleaner discards it onto the floor, the ball shattering all along the surface, before it fades away forever*
<Seraphna> Nox> We think it might have been interference from the higher planes. We got them to stop though. Is there a way to fix it?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh... but the itnereference there wans't what we thought it was..."
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "And who or what is the pusher?"
<DeathStar> <Avenir> It could have been something or someone from this time period, or another.
<Xantop> <Simon> We must assume the pusher was Xevil.
<DeathStar> <Avenir> That's the problem with time travel and time being abused a lot.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "...oh."
<Xantop> <Simon> Unless his jump to the higher plane was wholly independent?
<DeathStar> <Selena> If it was Xevil, I'm shocked he would allow this place to crumble.
<DeathStar> <Selena> I thought he wanted to rule it
<Xantop> <Simon> Hm, that is true.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "He didn't seem very smart, though."
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "He wouldn't do it intentionally... that THING, however."
<Seraphna> Nox> If we don’t know we at least need to patch the damage till we can stop it.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Really, fixing the damage should be our priority right now."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "But he was looking for a new place to rule... right?"
<DeathStar> <Cleaner> The problem with the situation with the Prime Reality time...
<DeathStar> <Cleaner> When time is that weak, you are looking at so many weak points throughout time to try to close them up it will be difficult
<DeathStar> <Cleaner> You are certain you want to waste efforts on them?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "It's not like we can go after the pusher."
<DeathStar> *Yuki clicks tongue* We might have to if they're in a time period.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Or still around ours
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Do we want to help them? I mean, even if this problem wouldn't cascade, the answer is a definite yes."
<DeathStar> Song 2: Gained and Lost
<Seraphna> Nox> I figure it’s not wasting an effort if reality doesn’t fall apart. Those rifts are increasing all the time.
<Xantop> <Simon> I cannot imagine doing anything other than my absolute best to save them from this problem. No matter the level of work it would take.
<Xantop> <Simon> They safe guarded our home and aided us, it would be cruel to not return that in kind.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "We have to at least try."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Also I am literally from that side."
<DeathStar> <Cleaner> Usually to repair points in time, one will need to go there and become fixtures. We will return to you a guide to explain fixtures.
<DeathStar> *the Cleaner seems to think they will regret the idea of becoming fixtures, as it moves off*
<Seraphna> Nox> Sounda like we need to stick ourselves in time periods. Or get volunteers.
<Xantop> <Simon> Interesting.
<DeathStar> <Selena> ... That's what fixtures are? Remain in these damaged time periods?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "And hold them together...?"
<Seraphna> Nox> Simon was a fixture I think.
<Seraphna> Nox> Then you all took him out of his fated period.
<DeathStar> *Avenir seems to be half-listening when she perks up; another time spirit begins to be felt*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "...ah."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> That's a lot of assuming
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ahhhh.. what if rescung him caused the damage...?"
<Seraphna> Nox> His tone suggested we wouldn’t like it.
<Sara> * Erica scratches her head
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "There's way too much damage for that."
<DeathStar> *Yuki peers at Erica*
<DeathStar> *Chronos slides up behind Nicolette and Simon*
<Xantop> <Simon> Rescuing me caused some damage, yes.
<Xantop> <Simon> I wonder if I would have to go back...if there's anything to even go back too. 6* he considers, then pauses feeling someone behind him.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "You saw what the Cleaner shows us... one poke could start breakign the entire thing again."
<MobileAri> * Nicolette bows with a sweep of her hat... though, careful to keep Origin balanced. "M'lady."
<DeathStar> *Origin balances cutely*
<DeathStar> <Chronos> It has been a while, everyone. *She holds onto Avenir, who is hugging her*
<DeathStar> <Chronos> I am to be your guide.
<Xantop> <Simon> My lady. 6* He bows his head to her.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Nice to meet you."
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> Date: 10-660.8.1
<DeathStar> Location: Risokyo
<DeathStar> *several days after the events on the PAX, Wind has been having his group mine for minerals, the one monster has been locked in a clone material and sealed in a vase, and the group is holding a meeting to decide how to go forward*
<DeathStar> Song 3: Briefing
<Seraphna> Jaime> So launching it into a star won’t work? Black hole maybe?
<DeathStar> *Chronos hangs out in the back with the Aquarius' team, while the the vase with the monster in it sits in the middle of the meeting*
<Dias`> *Chad studies the vase, his arms crossed*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh studies the monster vase
<DeathStar> <Wind> We could try that. But even now this one is trying to break out
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "From the vase?"
<DeathStar> *Adeline squints in annoyance*
<MobileAri> <Ariel> "If it has mass, a black hole should work. But... somehow, I'm not sure I'd count on it."
<Dias`> <Chad> If it worked, I would've assumed the higher plane had tried it already and we wouldn't be dealing with it.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Oh yes, the "body" it's trapped in - it wants to jump out of it
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Ah, so not physically."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Me and Charlotte have some updates too on the investigate on the second one
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmm... too bad we couldn't boot it through a one-way portal into a reality that was already dead."
<DeathStar> <Ren> I'm not sure you'll like what we found
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I'm certain that's been tried."
<Seraphna> Jaime> So what’s the fresh hell?
<MobileAri> <Ariel> "Anyways, I hate the whole 'lock up the evil' thing. It never lasts. This thing said we didn't have the means to destroy it, right? So that implies, it CAN be destroyed."
<Dias`> <Chad> Well, theoretically, it could work if we erased that reality afterwards. But that would take a lot of power to do.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "We have surprised the higher plane coutnerparts with how well we adapt to these sorts of thrats though."
<DeathStar> *John and Snipe lean back in their seats*
<DeathStar> *Ren moves over and sets down the damaged Rune Blade*
<DeathStar> *then brings up something on the screen*
<Xantop> <Xan> ...
<DeathStar> <Ren> Here's the part you're either going to like or going to hate
<Dias`> *Dias sits in his chair in the back, his eyes locked on to the vase*
<MobileAri> * Ariel sits back and listens
<Dias`> *Chad glances at the screen*
<DeathStar> <Ren> It appears that Erevis was using a different Rune Blade with different Runes.
<DeathStar> *she shows 3 of the remaining Runes that were still in the damaged sword*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Yeah, I have the real one.
<DeathStar> <Wind> This sword is from my reality
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Was it a different Erevis?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> The Rune Blade's runes were not elemental based
<DeathStar> <Wind> Originally
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "So, when did that change?"
<Jackieness> <Noire> "And what were they?"
<Seraphna> Jaime> Elementalism has always been a property of this universe. So ours must have adapted.
<DeathStar> <Wind> When this reality was made. *he taps the 3 still in the damaged sword.* This is the Azure Rune. It allows you to Fly or Swim.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Interesting that ours isn't the original."
<Seraphna> Sera> The original owner was interesting.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "I can already swim though?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> Ebony Rune allows your attack to be doubled. Teal Rune allows you to slowly regain health. The other 4 also had various abilities
<Dias`> <Chad> We technically came from their reality. Or a version of it. *He waves his hand dismissively* But yours was more ability based then and not elemental based.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... no offense... but those runes sound rather mundane compared to the elemental runes."
<DeathStar> <Wind> When this reality was made, all items became more serious. Anyway, you were saying Ren?
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Doubled attack is very strong."
<Seraphna> Sera> Yeah go on fluffy.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "And some of us cna do mor thna mere double."
<Dias`> *Chad rubs his brow a bit*
<DeathStar> <Ren> Well, we were seeking out the damaged blade and the remaining runes. So, I used momma Taiga's rune locator, since there's so many spare runes these days; the attack happened right over/by a time rip.
<Xantop> 6* Xan sits upright now.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmmm...I don't like that coincidence."
<Xantop> <Xan> Give me some hope that she fell in and we can find her.
<DeathStar> <Ren> And I got dozens of hits of rune pings back from the time holes. Not just that one.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "So, we'll have to visit each."
<Dias`> <Chad> And if it's a one-way trip?
<Dias`> *He looks at Charlotte*
<DeathStar> *she brings up a map, and it indicates that various rune ping backs are coming back from the holes in time*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmm... you have my attention."
<DeathStar> <Darien> There's too many holes - even if we sent one person per hole
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'd like to know, though, one runes are being used on the other side of these time portals
<DeathStar> *way
<DeathStar> *why
<DeathStar> *He leans forward, there with the Repliforce, including Cran*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Is there any commonality behind the holes? Like going back to a certain period?
<DeathStar> <Chronos> I can answer that one
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "... I'm starting to feel uneasy about this."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "And do some ping more strongly than others?"
<Dias`> <Chad> Two things. It's possible the runes are the source of these time tears. Or someone's purposefully trying to draw us through.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Your rips are leading to various time periods ... mainly the past. And two time periods in the future. That might be why every rip is giving you these "pings".
<Dias`> <Chad> Another thing is, we can't put our entire focus on those tears. We still have this...*He motions at the vase* Problem to deal with.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Because they all lead to these three points
<Dias`> <Chad> Then in theory, *he looks at Chronos* Whichever one leads to the earliest point would be the best option.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Not necessarily.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> It could be that is the correct course of action, but time has been shattered by something or someone
<Xantop> <Kane> Ah. Wait. Could we send this being into the future to give ourselves time to prepare for it?
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Until fixtures are established, possibily in all 3 points, nothing will matter
<Xantop> <Marcus> What does that mean?
<DeathStar> Song 4: Broken Time
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Only 3 points?"
<Dias`> <Chad> So then we set these 3 fixtures like you suggest and make a plan.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Let me rephrase
<Seraphna> Jaime> This at least makes the “fixtures” your Cleaners described more of a possibility. We need three instead of hundreds.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Time is in worse shape than just those 3, but right now it's ripping apart and seems to need pinholes in those 3 right now. If we can do something there, it might be enough to stop it. And as for fixtures.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> ... Usually it means someone or something - maybe an object, but usually a person - stepping in to "assuming" that point in life. And fixing things. To make sure everything runs smoothly.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "What does that mean, though?"
<Seraphna> Jaime> I’m hearing a But in there.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> You, Sparkling, would say step in and start living the life of your past self because too much time damage was done to the pst Sparkling and she was gone or dead
<DeathStar> <Chronos> That type of deal.
* ChadWinters` has joined #TAW-Session700
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Or in an extreme case, you and the past Sparkling merge with the memories of the current situation, but that is not something one usually should be done
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm...so what are these three time periods?"
<Xantop> <Xan> Yeah do you already know what we're looking at dealing with or we need to investigate more?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I... was about to say I'm ruled out, but... I did become the Hero of Earth."
<DeathStar> <Chronos> The time periods are these:
<DeathStar> <Chronos> 100 years form now. 1000 years from now
<Seraphna> Jaime> Those are some long stretches.
<ChadWinters`> *Chad quietly listens*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "And beyond the natural life expectancy of most people in this room."
<DeathStar> <Chronos> ... *she seems to be quiet a moment on the past one*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "And of course, we have no more detail about the situation. Or the third time period."
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> Indeed. A 1000 years from now, I'd find it hard to believe it'll be a person here that would be a fixture.
<Xantop> 6* Simon looks at Chronos curiously.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... the TimeSpirit seems pensive."
<Xantop> <Simon> Please, my lady, continue.
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> Probably because of how many will want to jump at that one.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> It's 100 years ago. But I feel you should still becareful. *she peers at Xanatos specifically* The time there is not cemented well
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "What happened then?"
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmm... what happened 100 years ago? That was before I was born."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Mmm."
<Seraphna> **Jaime frowns thinking back** Same but… was that around the time of Mom’s time loop?
<Xantop> <Xan> ...has it been 100 years since we were doing the first PAX stuff?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "... you're making me feel old."
<DeathStar> <Wind> It's actually before that
<DeathStar> <Wind> It's before the Ariel of this world even landed. It's before it all began
<Seraphna> Jaime> That would be a dangerous time for someone to go to.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Some would claim that Ariel and I's arrival to this world is when this reality began.
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> Well, technically it still happened before our branch officially become the start.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "You'll also need to tell us where these fixtures are, spacially."
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Who could even BE a fixture back in dinosaur times?
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... then it would make sense to attack that period to bring down our house of cards."
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "So... it's be easy to turn that one into a paradox?"
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> Yes.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Count me out. Subtlety isn't really easy for me."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Right. We'll need three teams then
<DeathStar> <Ren> One to go to the old people's time, then the other two time periods
<Xantop> <Xan> Where is Erevis?
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> So what do we do about this thing? *He motions at the vase*
<Xantop> <Xan> She's alive, runes are everywhere in time, I need to know where she is.
<DeathStar> *Taiga steps in with a bunch of a equipment*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> The problem is that we only have my rune locator
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Not an Erevis locator
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "How are we supposed to make plans with so little information?"
<Jackieness> <Noire> "We will need to adapt."
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> Using what's available to us.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Come to think of it, it’s almost as limiting who we can send to the past as the distant future if we need fixtures.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Well, either way, we have to close the uh time stuff going on right?
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> If it's Erevis, and shes in one of those points, she'll leave clues most likely on the holonet
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "That's kind of my point, what *is* available to us?"
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Well, lets look at it like this
<DeathStar> <Taiga> *she turns to Xantaos* Which time period do you think Erevis is most likely to be drawn to? Or shuttled?
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "You could just wing it?"
<DeathStar> <Taiga> They say fate has a hand in all things
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> I think we'll need your device in the furtherest period. A 100 years from now, something should still remain. A 1000, could be nothing which means no holonet
<Xantop> <Xan> Hm. If it was PAx-era I would say then to ensure everything happened how it should but I could easily see her attempting to vanguard any of those fixture points.
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> For those going to the past, people with minimal powers, or those that have a pension of acting without thinking.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "So no Dias in the past."
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> Indeed.
<Xantop> <Xan> My gut says the past.
<ChadWinters`> *Dias perks up* What?! I can restrain myself.
<DeathStar> *Taiga hands Xanatos a rune and device*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Here you go then
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmm...I might be too high on the power scale for the past as well."
<Seraphna> Jaime> Jikuu and I will have to stay. Empresses going missing for ages could have a major effect on the future periods.
<Xantop> 6* Xan looks it over and then looks to Chronos trying to gauge her expression.
<DeathStar> *Cran turns to Cole and blue* I will join the past group
<Xantop> <Cole> Oh yeah?
<ChadWinters`> *Chad looks at Cran* And if you're recognized?
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Yeah, I can't head to the past either. Sorry."
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I'm too powerful."
<Seraphna> Angela> He’s… technically one of the only people here who can be a past fixture…
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "What? Royalty not charging head first into danger? Such a thing exists?"
<DeathStar> <Cran> We'll see what happens. *Aya meanwhile is preparing to go on one of the future teams*
<DeathStar> <Selena> I thought royality had to go
<Seraphna> Angela> With Warren gone our super old demographic has gotten tiny.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Going into battle and going on a long voyage are different."
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> I'll head to the past. No one will recognize me, and someone will need to keep Durran in check
<DeathStar> <Chronos> I will send the past team off first
<Xantop> <Kane> As will I.
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> Id will accompany the other two points. If Id is still around, he'll be able to contact itself and bring everyone up to speed
<Seraphna> Angela> Dragoons going back that early would be a mistake. I think we are stuck with normal humans.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Send me wherever.
<DeathStar> *John joins Cran and company*
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> Agreed.
<Seraphna> **Tabetha puffs her cheeks**
<DeathStar> *John cranes his head* I'll be back. *He gets his rune*
<Xantop> <Kane> Taiga. What are these runes?
<Seraphna> Tabetha> You’d better.
<Sara> <Liana> Well, if royalty has to go...
<Alicia> <Hotaru> "... yeah. I won't allow you to just stay."
<DeathStar> <Taiga> They're upgraded versions of the normal runes. Plus I'm using them to keep track of you all
<DeathStar> <Taiga> So try not to take them off
<DeathStar> <Sylph> *lands on a head* Are spirits being sent off to war?
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> I’m old enough but a Famfrit might stick out that far back.
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Should I write a long letter?
<ChadWinters`> *Chad eyes it and pockets it*
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Woe is me?!
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... given how fortune favors fools, Dias is probably somehow still around 1000 years from now."
<Seraphna> Jaime> Not to the past at least, I’m not sure spirits have a link to our timeline that far back now that the mirror universe split.
<DeathStar> *Soren taps her arm* I refuse to go since in the past you didn't have spirit friendly accomodations
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> You think I could live that long?
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmm... fortune favors fools, Dias..."
<Seraphna> Jaime> Gnome and Terra will with all hopes be around in 1000 years.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> You keep saying fool
<DeathStar> *Chronos steps up to the past team* <Chronos> Are you ready?
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "I guess I'm going back to the past."
<Seraphna> Jaime> I’m not sure how long we Suisens might live yet.
<Xantop> <Xan> Yeah let's do it.
<DeathStar> Song 5: Time
<ChadWinters`> *Chad looks over at Aya* Becareful Aya.
<DeathStar> <Aya> You too. *She nods to Chad* You better not do the fixture thing
<Jackieness> <Noire> "I tagged your contact information on my pad under the appropriate Tarot card."
<ChadWinters`> <Chad> I'm not that egotistical.
<DeathStar> *John lightly taps Lunar*
<DeathStar> *Wind calls out to Lunar* You better come back, kiddo.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Yeah well you're...the joker card in my deck of cards....*He hmpfs*
<ChadWinters`> *Chad looks at Lunar then John* Make sure she doesn't do anything dumb while we're back there.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Being the Tarot Fool is actually more of a complement than insult."
<DeathStar> <John> Hey, she's an alternate super hero version of my daughter, of course she'll be great
<DeathStar> *Chronos warps them away*
<Seraphna> Angel> Alex… good luck.
<DeathStar> <Selena> So Nico?
<DeathStar> <Selena> Should we go for 100 or 1,000?
<DeathStar> *Ren looks at Charlotte, asking the same question*
<DeathStar> <Wind> I will take the 1000 years. It might be the more dangerous of the two.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Oh?! *He perks up towards Wind* That sounds fun
<Xantop> <Marcus> Oh no...
<ChadWinters`> *Two Id's float in to the room, one floating next to Aya*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmmm..."
<Seraphna> Sera> I guess I’ll keep Wind safe.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Of course I might be lying and everyone might be wiped out
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Trying to decide based on just a number is hard."
<DeathStar> *Sylph blehs and looks at Ellie*
<Seraphna> Sera> That’s why I’m right behind you Wind. Gives me a second to run away.
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "I've been pondering that... a hundred years. That... wouldn't be too far into your life span, would it?"
<DeathStar> <Melodie> I know how to do it. Sparkling, guess a number!
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Now that sounds boring.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "24?"
<DeathStar> <Selena> Hm. *thinks* Not too far, no? Luna probably will be Empress by then
<Xantop> <Simon> 100 years from now a fair number of you may be around still living.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "That's true."
<Xantop> <Simon> The far future would be limited to Progenitors and...rare exceptions. Perhaps myself included.
<Seraphna> Angela> As long as none of us are stupid most of the Dragoons could be alive in a hundred years. Chii will be alive forever.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "I too am uncertain which time to jump forward to."
<DeathStar> <Aimee> We'l ldo the 100. *She pulls Sparkling*
<Xantop> <Cole> How long do we live? 6* He glances at Blue.
<DeathStar> <Blue> Forever
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Wait what?"
<Jackieness> <Noire> "I'm actually not certain how long my lifespan might be."
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Might be my only chance to see it... hmm..."
<Xantop> <Cole> Oh shit does that means we're volunteered for the big number one.
<Seraphna> **Sera eyes Cole**
<DeathStar> <Melodie> We did the number roll and you picked 100 for us
<Sara> * Ellie pats Sylph
<Seraphna> Sera> You might not live forever if you don’t keep up with maintenance.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Who knows, maybe I'll learn to punch my way backwards in time. *He sighs a bit as he pulls out his datapad, awkwardly tapping away at it like an old person does and sends a message to someone*
<DeathStar> *Cheryl walks over and write down her choice, getting the thing from Taiga*
<Seraphna> **Angela follows her**
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> There
<Xantop> <Cole> I'm always in tippy top shape. Except when I avoid it for a few months.
<Sara> <Ellie> Are some of you seriously deciding at random?
<ChadWinters`> *Dias takes the thing from Taiga and carefully puts it in his pocket*
<Seraphna> Sera> Mmm. See me later.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> No. I am covering all but one timeline
<Xantop> <Cole> Alright I'll do the billion years from now one. 6* He half salutes to Taiga when he gets his rune.
<Xantop> <Simon> I suspect I will best serve the far future? 6* He asks Chronos, looking curious.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> I guess me and Hota go together. That way we can make sure we are back.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I can't say I'm not curious..."
<Sara> <Ellie> Not sure what to do... *she looks at Sylph*
<Seraphna> Terra> Is there fruit in the future?
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Hm. *Thinks hard* Want to see if Spirits exist in 1000 years?
<Sara> <Ellie> I guess we can do that... there really are no 'good' choices
<DeathStar> *Adeline picks 1000 years*
<Sara> <Ellie> It's like, "pick your poison"...
<DeathStar> *Sylph nods in agreement*
<Xantop> <Marcus> No chance I'm living 100 years from now let alone 1000, but I guess I'll help out the 100 team. 6* He gets his rune.
<Seraphna> **Sephie follows Adeline**
<DeathStar> **Marcus' shadow rises up and a certain evil being joins Marcus*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Becareful bro. Also, leave something behind for me to find in the future!
<Seraphna> **Jaime puffs her cheeks**
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I would say there's no chance I'm living even 100 years, but... ah."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...mother...?"
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Yes, dear?
<Xantop> <Kellin> Do we need to leave people here in the present to guard against this being? 6* He motions to the jar.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...must you stalk Marcus constantly?"
<Xantop> <Marcus> But...she's my shadow
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Most of Winter's Weapons have shifted to prepare for it.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Naturally some of us must remain to keep order.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> I suppose a shadow must stalk one.
<DeathStar> *She nods in thought*
* ChadWinters` has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
<Seraphna> **Kaelan sighs and opts for 1000 years** I will keep Adeline safe I suppose.
<DeathStar> *Ren signs up for the 100 year*
<Alicia> <Ecne> "I'll go to the far future. I should be around then."
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Yeah... hundred years sounds like the smart play. Even if I get stuck there, most my friends should be around still." *nods to herself*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... I suppose someone should go and keep mother out of trouble..."
<DeathStar> *Selena nods and signs them up*
<Seraphna> **Tabetha joins 100 with presumably a Hotaru**
<MobileAri> * Ariel signs up for the 1,000, figuring it has the most chance of being a post apocalyptic horror land.
<DeathStar> *Chronos floats*
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Erica. Yuki
<Sara> <Erica> What's up?
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "I... guess I'll go to 100 year one."
<Xantop> <Simon> Hmm. Nico and Selena, I shall stick with you. 6* He steps over to the 100 year group.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Would you mind lending your ship to the 1000th?
<Sara> <Erica> If it's you asking, I can hardly say no.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> I know that risks the Aquarius
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I'll come too, if only from professional curiosity."
<Dias`> <Id> That would be a smart choice, considering we dont' know what shape anything will be in.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Well now I need to go with the ship, goddammit
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... if worse occurred, there might not even be ny habitable planets."
<Seraphna> **Jaime grabs Adeline in a hug**
<DeathStar> *Adeline blinks and hugs Jaime back*
<DeathStar> <Adeline> Everything will be fine; we'll find they all worship me
<Seraphna> Jaime> Be careful… I will start the religion surrounding you now.
<Dias`> <Id> Or perhaps they'll be worshiping me.
<DeathStar> *Chronos warps out the 100th group*
<DeathStar> *Then begins to prepare the 1000th group along with the Aquarius*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "This seems unlikely, on both accounts."
<Xantop> <Pepper> I thought we were going to sneak out of this.
<DeathStar> <Mireille> It's a time warp~
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Date: 10-760.?.?
<DeathStar> Location: ?
<DeathStar> Song 6: TBA
<DeathStar> *The group sent to the future arrives in what looks to be strange empty streets, but at least everything looks clean and nice. The city looks like it could be Risokyo*
<DeathStar> *the city seems to have expanded even larger than it was before*
<Dias`> *Id begins to access the Holonet, updating it's records of what's going on.*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... where are the people?"
<Xantop> <Marcus> Was about to ask the same thing.
<Seraphna> **Angela muses, looking about**
<DeathStar> *a large missing hole can be seen where the PAX would be*
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Jaime, what did you do...?"
<DeathStar> <Ren> ... *scrolls ahead, the rune on her forehead glowing a bit, indicating a link back to Taiga and company in the present*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...perhaps an evacuation?"
<DeathStar> <Ren> By the way, mother said not to let your rune get destroyed
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "This is just so... unnatural."
<Seraphna> Angela> It looks like the PAX departed.
<Dias`> <Id> I'm currently trying to look at the Holo-Net to figure what's happened these last 100 years.
<DeathStar> *there appears to be buildings on the ground level that they can enter*
<Xantop> 6* Simon curiously runes a tracer spell to see if there's any spirit or mana energy present.
<DeathStar> *spirit and mana levels are rather low*
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "What a sad future..."
<Dias`> <ID> Interesting. It appears that the Suisen Empire has declared war on a newer Empire.
<DeathStar> *Chii is already looking for a shuttle*
<Seraphna> **Tabetha feels out for minds**
<Xantop> <Marcus> Newer?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I wonder who the poor suckers are
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...mmmm...and the state of Risokyo?"
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "So, not the Cartel war I was expecting..."
<MobileAri> * Nicolette looks about, wondering if this is a future in which they won or not...
<Xantop> <Marcus> Who should be around, should we just call up like Jaime or something?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You sure Jaime is alive and not ganked at this point?
<Dias`> <Id> I'm processing as much as I can as quickly as I can. But for now, there's a newer Empress.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmm... we could even be in a new Ilium future."
<Xantop> <Simon> Seeking out a mode of transportation seems imperative. Teleport systems or shuttles.
<DeathStar> *As Simon says that, Chii arrives with a ship; alarms can be heard in the distance*
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "This isn't a good sign."
<Seraphna> Angela> Well something to take back with us. Lest they be robbed of agency.
<Dias`> <Id> I imagine we should get going, seeing as this will bring unwanted attention
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmm... everyone on board." *heads for the ship*
<DeathStar> *Cheryl and Ren climb into the shuttle*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Um, aren't they going to be angry at us?
<Dias`> <Id> Interesting. The city appears to be empty. *It floats on to the shuttle*
<MobileAri> * Nicolette scurries on board in case there's trouble following
<Seraphna> **Tabetha and Angela get on**
<Jackieness> <Noire> "As I stated, the PAX may be missing becaus they evacuated, which means that we should as well."
<Xantop> 6* Marcus and Simon get on.
<Xantop> <Marcus> Who's the new Empress?
<DeathStar> Song 7: Welcome to Hell
<Dias`> <Id> I have discovered who the new Empire is.
<DeathStar> *Chii begins to have them fly off as the automated defense systems target them and the shield begins to rise up, trying to trap them in the city*
<Dias`> <Id> It would appear to be Xevil's, in Templar Space. And most rumors point to the Suisen Empire starting it.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> I do not think they want us to leave
<DeathStar> *the two spirits with Sparkling peer out of her shadow*
<Seraphna> **Tabetha forms a psionic shield behind them for extra protection**
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...more details...we need to know more. Why is Risokyo empty?"
<DeathStar> *Chii barely gets them out of the city before they are trapped*
<Xantop> <Marcus> Any of you a hotshot pilot who could get us out of here?
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "Oh, hey. He finally got his kingdom."
<Dias`> <Id> Because they've been drafted in the upcoming war, Noire.
<Seraphna> Angela> Slightly more worrying. Why didn’t they know we were coming?
<DeathStar> <Selena> And we're blowing it up!
<Xantop> <Marcus> Oh nevermind, good job Chii.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "... why didn't they know?"
<Seraphna> Angela> We left 100 years ago. They should have known we’d pop up now.
<Dias`> <Id> Because this is possibly a branched timeline that isn't affected.
<DeathStar> <Aimee> Oh. Chronos told us to give you a message after we left. But only like after a certain amount of time had passed
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Good point."
<Dias`> <Id> Think of it as something that hasn't solidified and become permanent.
<Seraphna> Angela> So this might not even be our future?
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...drafting an entire civilian populace for a war is not standard Suisen policy."
<DeathStar> <Melodie> You think enough time has passed?
<Xantop> <Simon> Did she tell you how much time needed to pass?
<Dias`> <Id> It's most likely the most likely.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Seems like we need to know now.
<DeathStar> <Melodie> I guess. She said just because you left a few minutes ago had no bearing on what is happening now. Time has already splintered to pieces.
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "It's been 100 years, so... enough time has definitely passed."
<Seraphna> Angela> Right, alternate timeline then.
<DeathStar> <Melodie> Until it's fixed this is broken and drifting
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "I mean, it makes sense. The rip to this time appeared before we left."
<Seraphna> Angela> This is technically how the realities were formed. I think I can get in that headspace.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I guess no Adeline statues
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Enlighten us, Angela. Please."
<Seraphna> Angela> Every reality is basically a what if some major event or person was different or died.
<Seraphna> Angela> So this was a possibility before we all returned from above.
<DeathStar> *the shuttle's comm beeps as someone begins to comm them; Chii motions* Uh?
<DeathStar> *Ren's ears twitch*
<Dias`> <Id> It's all a possibility, yes.
<Xantop> <Marcus> Ooo a caller? Let's see who it is.
<Seraphna> **Tabetha Taos the button** Tony’s pizza! How can we take your order?
<Seraphna> **Taps the button, philosophically
<DeathStar> *Chii hits the button and chief of police Christina appears; she appears much much older now, with some tech in her*
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "Hi Christina!"
<Jackieness> <Noire> "....I'm surprised to see her still about..."
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Wow she has to be like 130 right?
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "...who?"
<DeathStar> *Selena shrugs*
<Seraphna> Angela> A friend from Luna colony.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... I mean, with her blood pressure?"
<Sara> <Chris> Well. You lot don't look like you're from here. *she says dryly*
<Xantop> <Marcus> I mean that's technically both wrong and right.
<DeathStar> *Cheryl murmurs* Tell me she's not still doing the cop thing and she's retired by now
<Sara> <Chris> But... it's not bad to see you. And what are you doing here, now?
<Seraphna> Angela> We’re from a long time ago in a galaxy not all that far away.
<DeathStar> <Ren> I don't suppose your network could give us directions to ... uh
<Xantop> <Simon> To make the story short, we are here to discover what may be broken in the time period...and fix it.
<DeathStar> *she leans over* To this place?
<Seraphna> Angela> Any nasty invisible monsters or rogue Erevis’ around?
<DeathStar> *she gives the name of Xevil's empire when Simon admits the time thing*
<Sara> <Chris> ...I'll transmit something on an encoded band. You never know who can be listening to something like this, you realize that, right?
<Dias`> <Id> Those here don't believe in subtleness at times.
<Seraphna> Angela> Me big girl with big smash sword.
<Sara> <Chris> Don't I know it...
<Alicia> <Sparkling> "It doesn't exactly come naturally to me."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...ironic that I cma eto keep an eye on my mother, and she is one of those who is actually behaving."
<DeathStar> *Andrea eyes nails*
<DeathStar> <Andrea> What, you thought I was going to ride cock during the middle of the session or something?
<Sara> * Chris coughs
<Sara> <Chris> Still listening
<Xantop> 6* Marcus chokes on seemingly nothing, coughing.
<MobileAri> * Nicolette sighs
<Dias`> <Id> ...Well that wasn't something I was expecting to here today.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...no...mother..."
<Seraphna> Angela> Marcus have you been a dirty boy?
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...coudl we change the subject?!"
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Lets focus."
<DeathStar> *Chii twitchees*
<Xantop> <Simon> Thank you for your assistance.
<Sara> <Chris> Yeah. Please don't get into too much trouble, okay?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Thank you for the incormation, Co--Christina. You stay safe. We'll try to drop by later
<Seraphna> Angela> We promise to try.
<Sara> * Chris gives a two-finger wave and the comm ends
<Xantop> <Marcus> Don't get me in the middle of this. 6* He says to Angela, still shaking off the coughing fit, clearing his throat.
<Dias`> <Id> I've starting to gain more on what's been happening to the Empire. There are conflicting rumors on why the Suisen Empire is going to war with Xevil's new empire.
<Seraphna> **Angela looks at Cheryl curiously**
<DeathStar> *Selena meanwhile has covered her ears*
<DeathStar> <Ren> Hit me with it
<DeathStar> *Cheryl hyperspaces them*
<Xantop> <Simon> I hadn't considered that these teams would be keeping this time business a secret, I will refrain from discussing it later.
<Seraphna> Angela> Is there really a point to? We’re from the past and in a splintered timeline. We really can’t affect it temporally speaking.
<Dias`> <Id> Some believe this war was started because of the hatred that the former Empress had over Xevil. Others believe that the current Empress isn't acting normal.
<Seraphna> Angela> Who is the current Empress?
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... any chance she was taken by the violence entity?"
<Dias`> <Id> And that the creature that we recently started dealing with is perhaps the cause of it.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "If it's Jaime, there's a possibility. If Jikuu, either that, or she's been replaced in some other way."
<Dias`> <Id> It's not Jaime. It's a a descendent of her and Adeline's.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "... oh."
<Xantop> <Marcus> Do we have record of what happened to Jaime or Adeline? Hatred usually happens when something nasty causes it.
<Seraphna> Angela> Well maybe they retired early.
<MobileAri> <Nicolette> "...so weird thinking of a hundred years as 'early'."
<Dias`> <Id> I am struggling to find their name. It appears that they've used the Suisen's System to keep there name scrubbed from the Holo-net.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "'The former empress' isn't Erevis?"
<Seraphna> Angela> True, Jaime can go awhile but Adeline could be quite old or dead by now. And that girl’s pretty dependent.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I guess Jikuu can't keep her in check."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Curiouser and curiouser..."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> They could be locked in the files so that only the Suisen family can read about their fates
<Dias`> <Id> I could attempt to access the rest of the Id's and figure see what I can learn from there.
<Seraphna> Angela> Hrm… it’s possible this future is based on us never coming back from above.
<Dias`> <Id> If that's the case, then you have nothing to worry about when things are fixed, correct? *Id turns to Angela*
<Seraphna> Angela> Adeline went with us. A lot of us were gone. Also Xevil here means he might not have left for above either.
<Xantop> <Marcus> I don't know, something is off.
<DeathStar> *After some travel and research; Id would find that outside files reported by other races, which isn't much - Jaime stepping down and the one of her daughers rising to the Throne, sightings diminishing of the previous Empresses decreasing, having no access to the suisen files like before it is hard to determine the fate of Jaime, Empress Jikuu, or Adeline*
<DeathStar> *it just appears this new person who calls themselves after the suisen Empire is likely of the lineage of Jaime and Adeline rose up and took the name Suisen*
<Dias`> *Id finishes explaining that to everyone*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Yeah, that’s weird.
<Seraphna> **Angela
<DeathStar> *The ship soon exits hyperspace; all in front of them are Squall like ships, legions of them*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmmm?"
<Xantop> <Marcus> Damn, this is uh...a lot.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Xanatos would be happy
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Hmmm, Jaime did want to build a new fleet. This seems overboard though.
<DeathStar> *They appear to be facing off with Tsivrixsh cruisers*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...it depends upon the purpose of this fleet."
<DeathStar> *in front of a planet in the background*
<Dias`> <Id> Would he be? War isn't something he enjoyed.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "You can be happy about having a fleet while wishing it never has to be used."
<DeathStar> *Taiga's rune begin to blink harder, indicating this is the area of space that the monster/one of Erevis' runes are likely to be*
<Seraphna> Angela> So taking bets that the current empress is the monster with one of the Runes?
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Likely."
<Dias`> <Id> I imagine it would calm many peoples minds that was the case.
<DeathStar> <Chii> But does that mean siding with Xevil?
<Seraphna> Angela> It craves war and violence. That means fighting Xevil.
<Xantop> <Marcus> ...god who the fuck do we talk to first.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm...we don't need to pick a side in this war as long as we can get to the empress to deal with it."
<Seraphna> Angela> They’re fighting Tsiv cruisers aren’t they?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yeah, they are
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I'd like more information first... but getting it subtly is hard."
<Dias`> <Id> And can you deal with it? Did anyone bring that material to lock it up?
<DeathStar> <Ren> Yeah I got some
<Alicia> * Charlotte tries to monitor communications between the fleet
<Seraphna> Angela> Same.
<DeathStar> *Ren feels around her pockets* It's not a ton
<Seraphna> Tabetha> And I came to attack nerve centers.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... and I can provide a distraction with the raw power that I can conjure up."
<DeathStar> *Charlotte turns on the comms; they seem to be trapped into the Suisen side. They're comms seem to be mostly of conscripted Suisen citizens who were drafted, seeming to be scared as they use these advanced weapons to fire at the Tsivrixsh. Surprisingly, it appears to be mostly one sided - against the Suisen*
<DeathStar> *but slowly but surely the PAX is advancing on the world*
<Xantop> 6* Marcus leans forward.
<Xantop> <Marcus> Something bad is about to happen.
<DeathStar> *The world looks to be a lush and beautiful one*
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "But can we intervene?" *looks forwards with future-vision*
<DeathStar> *they can attempt to use their shuttle to land on the PAX perhaps. Or try to hurry past and get to the planet itself while the fighting is going on*
<Dias`> <Id> Since it's a fragmented piece of time, does it matter?
<Jackieness> <Noire> "We need to get on to the PAX to have any chance of ending this madness and reclaim the rune."
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Ending this as quickly as possible will also save the most lives."
<Jackieness> <Noire> *gestures at the chaotic comm chatter form the drafted civilians* "...just listen to it. This is, indeed, madness."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Alright heading for the PAX
<DeathStar> *she zooms for it*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Just know
<DeathStar> <Selena> Once we're on that thing
<DeathStar> <Selena> We cannot get off most likely until we achieve out objective
<DeathStar> *our
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I figured."
<Dias`> <Id> Hmmm. That would explain why my lack of knowledge on the internals of the Suisen Empire is so sparse. All of the Id shells were removed from the majority of it's territory.
<Seraphna> Angela> Sounds like the usual.
<DeathStar> *as they get close, it would seem the goal is for the PAX to get in firing range of the planet*
<DeathStar> *and use it's powerful attack to defeat Xevil and his people*
<Xantop> <Marcus> Yeah they're going to pop that planet.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> This Empress is savage
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Landing in just a few... *She approaches the hanger* Get ready. It'll likely be a fight
<Seraphna> Angela> Yeah… it feels off alright.
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Date: 11-660.?.?
<DeathStar> Location: Aquarius
<DeathStar> Song 8: Runic Time
<DeathStar> *The Aquarius' alarms go off as the ship spins and emerges*
<DeathStar> *in what looks to be space, with debris floating around*
<Seraphna> Sera> As always a smooth and unfettered entrance!
<DeathStar> *Mireille floats in her spirit pod, and Sylph is in the second pod*
<Xantop> <Pepper> Ahhhhh, engines we need engines Cook
<Seraphna> Cookie> **maneuvers then out of the way**
<Seraphna> **Nox is in the third**
<DeathStar> <Ben> The internal time clocks are still claiming it is 10-660.
<Seraphna> Cookie> I don’t think those can measure without a network to update from?
<Xantop> <Cole> That's a lot of shit floating around out there.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Ben, cna you idnetyify any star positions to adjust the clocks with?"
<Sara> <Erica> They ultimately only measure time from when they're set.
<Dias`> <Id> That is...odd.
<DeathStar> *Ben works on doing so; the group's runes Taiga gave her being calm so far as Ben adjusts them to the new time*
<Dias`> <Id> I'll begin accessing the Holo-Net.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I don't think it exists."
<MobileAri> <Ariel> "Thousand years. Definitely hard to know what to expect after that much time."
<Seraphna> Cookie> Oh man, my alarm says I overslept like a thousand years!
<DeathStar> <Adeline> Certain things will not go off that easily
<Dias`> *Dias yawns a bit as he looks out the view screen*
<DeathStar> <Blue> Tell Vedal there is an error in my CPU
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Is there anything but junk out there?
<Seraphna> **Sera flaps over and starts poking Blue** Lemme see.
<Xantop> <Cole> I think my system will crash all Y11K when it divides by a zero somewhere.
<Seraphna> Sera> That’s not a thing!
<Dias`> <Id> Interesting. I'm trying to access the Holo-Net, but I cannot.
<DeathStar> *Wind raises eyebrow*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "It still exists?"
<DeathStar> *Adeline sees what she can see* It's .... interesting.
<Dias`> <Id> Yes. But it seems to have advanced, which I suppose isn't a surprise. Hmmm. That will make accessing the Id network difficult.
<DeathStar> <Adeline> Indeed. Here. Erica? Can you take the Aquarius to this location?
<Seraphna> **Sera goes humanoid and plugs into Blue, musing**
<DeathStar> *she brings it up a location on the map*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "If it continued to evolve as our Holonet has, then it is likely to still retain some original protocols that you can find buried."
<Seraphna> Sephie> Hopefully we got the cool future.
<DeathStar> *Blue blinks after a bit as she sees Sera in her face* Hello there
<Sara> <Erica> All right.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "How do ordinary people access it in this time?"
<DeathStar> *Aya does scans to see what all she can pick up*
<DeathStar> <Aya> Lets see what we can find
<Seraphna> Sera> **adjusts a lab coat** Hello… the error was a joke right? Though this OS… ugh…
<Dias`> <Id> If it remains, yes. But, I would need to find a way to access it. Give me time, I maybe able to right a program allowing me to at least some what access the Holo-Net. If I can, then I should be able to reach out.
<DeathStar> <Blue> Are you insulting my OS?
<Seraphna> Sera> Saying I can improve it.
<DeathStar> *Cloé peers at Cherie* Food no longer tastes good in the future
<Alicia> <Ecne> "Scary."
<Seraphna> Cookie> Drugs are still good right?
<Sara> <Cherie> Is this what getting old is like?
<Jackieness> <Bella> "But its just all the food we brought with us."
<DeathStar> <Blue> I'm good the way I am
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Hmm? What's up?"
<Xantop> <Cole> Yeah that was rude, Sera.
<DeathStar> <Cloe> Cherie gets it. *She nods*
<Seraphna> Sera> Yeah well, I’d like to take a look at you with my daughter when this is over.
<Alicia> <Ecne> "I shouldn't have come here..."
<DeathStar> *the Aquarius soon is approaching what looks to be something floating in space; it appears to be a massive, massive, massive space structure as far as the eye can see*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "In the meantim,e try to find the time then extrapolate the position of known inhabited worlds based on the passage of time relative to the universal constant."
<Xantop> <Pepper> What this is fucking huge.
<DeathStar> <Mirelle on comm> I am detecting life signs from it
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Sensors. What do we have?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> The Super Duper PAX?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> That looks planet sized.
<DeathStar> *Mireille brings up the structure; it looks like pods with humans in it. There's a logo on the structure but it's worn off by now*
<Dias`> <Id> Interesting design.
<Alicia> * Ceilidh tries to ID the logo anyway
<Seraphna> Sera> Pods? Like stasis pods?
<Sara> <Erica> Hope they don't call this thing the 'SAX'...
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Id, can you detect any understandable signals from the structure?"
<DeathStar> *it appears to be cartel perhaps once; the pods look to be hooked up to some advanced system of the holonet; the people seem to have their minds downloaded*
<DeathStar> Song 9: 1000
<Dias`> *Id hooks up to the Aquarius sensors and begins scanning and deciphering what it can*
<Seraphna> Sephie> It’s… a collective simulation?
<DeathStar> <Aya> I think there's a few of these set up
<DeathStar> *she brings up more scattered around*
<Seraphna> Sephie> So people do eventually abandon the universe for virtual lives? I thought that was cheesy sci fi.
<Xantop> <Pepper> I want to go back. This is weird.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Not the choice I'd have made."
<DeathStar> <Aya> I'm not sure if it's just collective simulation. They're also being used for their brain power to run a more powerful holonet
<DeathStar> <Aya> It's why Id was having trouble connecting
<Seraphna> Sephie> Who would the end user be then?
<DeathStar> <Ben> ...I'm not sure
<Dias`> <Id> That would explain it, yes.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "They could be both net and user."
<Seraphna> Sephie> Huh. Like Ubik.
<DeathStar> <Blue> Ubik?
<Jackieness> <Noire> "If there are no habitable worlds left, then these may function as arks for the colelctive consciousness of sentient life forms."
<Seraphna> Sephie> Story an ancient earth writer wrote about people creating a reality with their minds.
<Xantop> <Cole> We need more data on the universe at large, should we land and try to hook up to their net?
<DeathStar> <Blue> I find it hard to believe all the worlds died out
<Seraphna> Cookie> In only a thousand years that’s unlikely without someone like Nyarl eating all the planets.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Agreed, for it to happen in a thousand years is unlikely."
<MobileAri> <Ariel> "Well, this isn't the sort of dystopia I was expecting."
<Dias`> <Id> A plague, a war. Numerous things.
<DeathStar> *Wind thinks* How do we get more information then?
<DeathStar> <Ben> Well, we could attempt to jump to known coordinates of Earth
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Without getting into the net, I'm not sure."
<DeathStar> <Ben> Or the suisen or the Cartel/Erusians/Tsivrixsh
<Dias`> <Id> The most likely would be to access that place and send several people into whatever world that exists there.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Looking at one of the lost planets is our best bet."
<Seraphna> Cookie> Yeah this could just be the norm for some faction.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> You really want to send us into that mind hive?
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Ben, calculate a jump for the projected positon of the nearest known world."
<Dias`> <Id> It's an option, yes.
<DeathStar> *Ben begins to calculate and sends Erica/Cookie the jump*
<Xantop> <Cole> I don't care to jump into the mind hive, but let's cover everything we can before that.
<DeathStar> <Mireille comms> Ready to jump
<Seraphna> Cookie> Full speed Mire! **plus in the star path**
<DeathStar> *the Aquarius appears over what was Risokyo*
<DeathStar> *it now seems to be a Tsivrixsh territory, a large flag, with a massive Tsivixsh spire in the center*
<Seraphna> Cookie> Well this just got dark.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "At least the planet is still here. However, it is likely that the Suisne Empire is no more."
<DeathStar> *Tsivrixsh city sprawls from the spire and the remains of a PAX can be seen below underneath the developing city, rotting almost, as if it's trying to repair but it never can*
<Dias`> <Id> Interesting.
<DeathStar> <Ben> We're being hailed
<DeathStar> *Wind eyes his hand; the runes glowing*
<DeathStar> <Wind> We have glowing runes
<Dias`> <Id> Then perhaps we should answer.
<Seraphna> Sera> Well we skipped to the endgame.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> What are the odds we found our monster that easily?
<Seraphna> Sera> Depends on how cynical you are.
<Sara> <Erica> Pretty low...
<Dias`> *Dias peers at everyone's runes glowing* A 1000 years of becoming stronger. *He seems to almost smile at that thought*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "On screen."
<DeathStar> *Cloé eats cereal in the cafe* I feel like everyone is getting excited over something
<DeathStar> *She shares the food with Cherie and Bella*
<Sara> <Cherie> Seems like it
<Jackieness> <Bella> "You know how it is with this assignment. Mom was a bit ticked that we sailed out again almost immediately though."
<Seraphna> **Cookie brings it on screen**
<DeathStar> *sitting in a chair, the room dimmed dark so only his outline is seen; the figure leans back, as if having been sitting there a long time waiting. Waiting and waiting and waiting, that's what the posture says. Two women sit on either side.* <Familiar Xevil Voice> Welcome, Aquarius.
<Seraphna> Cookie> Xevil?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> ... Well. If it isn't that guy. That one dude. Xevil Dude
<DeathStar> *Yuki motions thta they should blast the spire from orbit*
<Seraphna> Cookie> How yah been buddy? You sound bored.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "How is he still alive?"
<MobileAri> <Ariel> "Xevil, huh? On one hand, I'm not surprised. But why here?"
<DeathStar> <Xevil> I bid you welcome. I have been lacking company. Please, come down and see me. I will prepare the invitation
<Jackieness> <Airym> "He became an undying eldritch being, if you recall."
<Xantop> <Cole> Bomb that fucker to hell and back and let's get out of here.
<DeathStar> *Xevil seems to think* I was attacked once. ... long ago. Yes. Long ago. It made me have to take all once more. Take up the sword once more
<Jackieness> <Airym> *looks at Cole then at Xevil, who is sitll on screen with the audio on*
<Xantop> 6* Cole mimes pushing the button and an explosion, nodding.
<DeathStar> *Xevil shifts in his seat* Yes, you're right. *he says to something* Of course they spurn the hand. You're right. Endless boredom must end either way
<MobileAri> <Ariel> "Xevil? A victim? That seems hard to believe."
<DeathStar> *He ends the transmission*
<Sara> <Erica> Well... that didn't seem productive.
<DeathStar> <Wind> We can try the attack. But I do not know if it will work.
<Seraphna> Cookie> Hmmm. The Monster is here. But in who?
<Dias`> <Dias> He seemed off.
<DeathStar> <Wind> He seemd to be talking to someone else.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "It may eb best that someone goes to see what he ahs to say."
<Seraphna> Cookie> Who were the ladies? One was talking to him.
<Dias`> <Dias> That can't be the end of the path...*He makes a thinking face*
<DeathStar> <Wind> It could be he resisted the monster and it went into one of the women
<Xantop> <Cole> Maybe this is just it, eventually if you conquer everything what else do you have?
<DeathStar> <Wind> Or it is in him and he's strong enough to 'talk' to it
<Dias`> <Id> One way to find out.
<Xantop> <Pepper> I don't want to go down there.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I wonder what I'd do if I knew everything there is to know."
<DeathStar> <Wind> I'll go
<Xantop> 6* Pepper pauses and scans for life signs in the city to see if they're also in pods here.
<MobileAri> <Ariel> "Is he trapped down there? It seems like he's isolated."
<DeathStar> *there's Xevil's lifesigns, and surprisingly the city itself has quite a few Tsivrixsh*
<Xantop> <Cole> Can someone explain to me what the runes reacting means?
<Seraphna> Sera> Another rune is near.
<Xantop> <Pepper> I'm getting plenty of life signs down there besides just his.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> It means the monster is here. As well as one of Erevis' rune
<DeathStar> <Yuki> So I would think that would mean Erevis is here
<Seraphna> Sera> For all we know one of those ladies is Erevis.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "As this is a diplomatic situation, Erica, you should take command of the situation."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I'll go as well in that case
<Xantop> <Cole> It's going to be a fight I bet, but if you all can talk it out I'll keep my mouth shut until the fight starts.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "You should take a security detail as well."
<Sara> <Erica> Yeah, got it. I'll do what I can.
<Dias`> <Dias> I'll come with.
<DeathStar> <Mireille comm> Do you want me to come and brack you up or remain in the ship?
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Dias, you have the most power, so your job is to make sure everyone makes it back if negotiations turn sour."
<DeathStar> *Sylph sticks with Ellie for now on the ship*
<Sara> * Ellie pats her
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Ben, keep an eye on locla space in case we need to plot an emergency escape."
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I'm not sure how much use I'll be, but I can come along if you want."
<DeathStar> <Ben> Understood.
<DeathStar> *Wind leads Erica's group for the teleporters*
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Date: 10-560.?.?.
<DeathStar> Location: Unknown
<DeathStar> *the group appears; for a moment or two, it almost feels like time itself is sticky*
<DeathStar> *Cran looks around, the group being on Earth, it being night time*
<Xantop> <Xan> ...you feel that?
<Dias`> *Chad glances down at himself, an odd look appearing on his face briefly*
<Dias`> <Chad> Yeah. I don't like it.
<DeathStar> <Cran> We'll just have to deal with it
<Xantop> 6* Kane frowns and then pulls out his datapad to start scanning around.
<Xantop> <Xan> What does that mean?
<DeathStar> *John points; up ahead is Cran Manor*
<DeathStar> <John> Look at where we were set off.
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "Unless you have a better destination, we're going to the manor."
<Xantop> <Xan> I remember that building.
<DeathStar> *Cran seems to have a grim look on his face, perhaps due to the manor, as he considers something*
<Dias`> *Chad glances at Cran* What you thinking?
<DeathStar> <Cran> If we need fixtures, and our group is one of the smallest ones
<Xantop> 6* Kane just works on getting on the holonet to get a better idea of what's going on.
<Dias`> <Chad> Then it's probably one of us.
<Dias`> *Chad looks at him*
<DeathStar> <Cran> Indeed. One of us is going to have to decide ahead of time who will likely have to remain behind to help repair time
<DeathStar> *The holonet at this point is super primitive with barely anything compared to what it will be*
<Xantop> <Kane> ...how quaint. Simpler times indeed.
<Dias`> *Chad clicks his tongue* Well, we'll cross that bridge when we get closer to figuring this out.
<DeathStar> *Cran moves to the front door and reaches to find the hidden key, unlocking it for everyone*
<Xantop> <Xan> Well, Alex, shall we go to your house?
<DeathStar> <Cran> Lets plan ahead. *the group's runes faintly glow*
<Xantop> <Kane> The runes are reacting.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Well, that's good news
<DeathStar> <Cran> We just need to track it down
<DeathStar> *he looks at Xanatos* It looks like you picked the right time period.
<Xantop> <Xan> I hope so.
<Dias`> <Chad> Let's just hope it doesn't end badly.
<Xantop> <Xan> And take it from someone who was stuck out of time for decades...being able to live around people will never make this a punishment. Being alone...that's hell.
<DeathStar> <Cran> If Taiga was correct, this lights up if Erevis' rune is nearby. And she was holding onto it when she fell in
<DeathStar> <Cran> So that monster should be in this time period with the runes
<Xantop> <Kane> I'm suddenly aware of our lack of firepower compared to that monster.
<Dias`> <Chad> Being alone wasn't bad.
<Dias`> <Chad> But if it's in this time period....that would be troubling.
<DeathStar> *Cran sets them up ---- in the kitchen*
<DeathStar> <John> How so?
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "Think how much trouble it could cause messing with this time."
<Dias`> <Chad> Think of the damage it could do to the time line, or in effect, creating it's own branch.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Alright I'll gather what information I can for this time period and we'll set out
<Xantop> <Kane> That is why Chronos was apprehensive with this time period.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Speaking of
<DeathStar> <Cran> Can we access Chronos or Avenir?
<DeathStar> <Cran> I suppose she'll be sticking to that one person at least
<Xantop> <Xan> Uh from when I was on Geyze you would just like call out the spirits name and they would appear.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Okay. That's good to know if we need back up
<DeathStar> -SHIFT/Epilogur-
<DeathStar> Location: Lowest Levels
<DeathStar> *Nyarlathotep observes the broken time; it observes those guarding the jar, it observes the various floating time periods going, each with a rune it appears and each with a monster (that will be explained next Monday) despite there being only one Monday to hunt down, and it observes all of this quietly, and while Logan is distracted, it chooses quietly where and when it wishes to rally forth and act*
<DeathStar> -TBC-

<DeathStar> *Sylph sits on Ellie's head*
<DeathStar> *Cloe tries to cook a little food*
<Dias`> *Id continues to work on trying to access the holonet somewhat while Dias taps his foot impatiently as he looks out the view screen*
<DeathStar> *Cloe offers Dias some food*
<Dias`> *Dias blinks as he's caught off guard by Cloe* Oooh food. *He takes it and begins munching on it* Did you amke it?
<DeathStar> *she nods and beams* Yes!
<Dias`> <Dias> It's good!
<DeathStar> *she goes back to trying to make other stuff, like a meatloaf*
<DeathStar> <Cloé> Yay!
<DeathStar> <Cloé> Lets see....*she eyes how spicy she should make it*
<Dias`> <Dias> Spicier!
<DeathStar> *Cloe salutes and begins to make a super spicy dish*
Session Start: Tue Apr 30 00:00:01 2024
<Dias`> *Dias plops down cross legged as he muses*
<DeathStar> *Cloe hums as the meatloaf cooks*
<DeathStar> *she then gives Dias and Cherie some; the meat looking red it's so hot*
<Dias`> *Dias scarfs it down instantly*
<DeathStar> <Cloe> How is it?
<Dias`> *Dias looks at her, his face red and sweating profusely* Good!
<DeathStar> <Cloe> *beams and writes it down*
<DeathStar> *all will get this from now on*
* Dias` has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
<DeathStar> *a rash outbreak of Famfrits wearing cute dinosaur outfits are reported*
Session Close: Tue Apr 30 14:44:39 2024


Session Start: Mon Apr 29 13:10:06 2024
<Dias`> *Chad eyes the mansion as they set up* We don't have any problem of yourself coming home, do we? *He looks at Cran*
<DeathStar> <Cran> During this time frame, I usually slept at the base, trying to think of how to advance humanity. It wouldn't be until Wind and Ariel arrived in the reality that I really began to do the mad science labs and all that at the house. For the first few years I didn't spend much time at the house. *he thinks* At this point, EarthGov military has no real black ops or anything to worry about.
<DeathStar> <Cran> It won't be until thtat date in 15 years
<Dias`> <Chad> That's good. *He rubs his face as he takes a seat, keeping entryways in his sight*
<DeathStar> <Cran> It also makes me paranoid due to the fact there's so little in the way of anything. Why so early
<Dias`> <Chad> Well, if this was on purpose, it's before things changed. You could saw that Wind and Ariel's arrival is the turning point of our reality and what cemented it into being the center of it all.
<DeathStar> *Cran nods in thought*
<Dias`> <Chad> So, why not do something before that point. Problem is, for what purpose. If it's that thing's actions, then that means it's planning ahead for something.
<Dias`> <Chad> If it's something Erevis did, that brings up other questions. It could also be because of a 3rd party.
Session Start: Tue Apr 30 00:00:01 2024
<DeathStar> <Cran> How do you see this ending?
<Dias`> <Chad> Not well. There's three points we have to deal with and not enough information or time to come up with a rational decision.
<Dias`> <Chad> And there's no guarantee if one of us is forced to stay behind that we'll even return to our timeline.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Agreed. We'll need those time spirits most likely. Plus the way she talked this area of time if more than one of us will have to stay.
<Dias`> <Chad> Perhaps I should've brought an Id with, but...*He clicks his tongue* To be fair, there's no guarantee that any of us can even try to right time to keep things going the way it should.
<DeathStar> *Cran brings upa map of the city*
<DeathStar> *marking down key places*
<Dias`> *Chad taps his finger on his thigh a bit as he thinks* I imagine this must be an interesting perspective to look at again.
<DeathStar> <Cran> It is definitely unique. It's a unique place in time when EarthGov was meeting new races and learning we were lacking in many regards. That would breed fear among many
<Dias`> <Chad> Indeed. You might want to wear things to hide yourself better in public.
<DeathStar> <Cran> I can do that - though as an old man I am well hidden right now
<Dias`> <Chad> Hmmm. I hope this isn't a closed loop. *He seems to be plotting things out*
<DeathStar> <Cran> I guess we'll see how much damage is done
<Dias`> <Chad> Well, we'll find it out eventually. *he rubs the of his head*
<DeathStar> *Cran eyes the city map* Should we borrow transportation from the manor or "borrow" some of the street
<Dias`> <Chad> Borrowing one should be easy, considering tech. Less chance of us disturbing or getting caught. Stealing one of yours has a higher potential of getting us caught.
<DeathStar> *Cran motions at John* Go get us something
* Dias` has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
