<DeathStar> 4.10.5992
<DeathStar> Location: The Cat Mewship
<DeathStar> 6* Mostly completely, Chelsea's brand new ship is out in the space port to take those who want to go down to Geyze there. Cypher is there despite being 6 months pregnant now she is in the ship with them
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar checks their supplies
<Sara> <Chelsea> Are you sure you're okay to go, Cy?
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie lays on the monitors in cat form
<Seraphna> * Luci peers it over. "It's a ship."
<DeathStar> <Cypher> I'll stay with the ship or transports and take it easy. I promise
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan gives Asarar a thumbs up after checking his side of the supplies.
<DeathStar> 6* The ship is shaped a bit like a cat.
<Seraphna> Luci> "It is a cat ship. I approve of feline cuteness."
<DeathStar> 6* Now and again the ship asks if Chelsea wants to activate the prototype sphere abilities to make the ship stronger. Bonnie switches it off when it pops up, like a Windows update that bugs you
<Sara> <Chelsea> I just went with what was efficient and familiar...
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan moves towards the bridge area. How big is this ship compared to the Aquarius?
<DeathStar> *Asarar sticks the Geyze locations that are marked* The others think that the two spots Jelly found are good spots for attacks that can cripple Kumen with viral bombs
<DeathStar> <Asarar> So likely the locations on Geyze can do the same
<Sara> * It's very definitely smaller, made for a crew around the size of the group
<DeathStar> *Asarar takes a seat and buckles in*
<Seraphna> * Luci also takes a seat.
<Sara> * Chelsea peers over the launch checklist
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan sits down, looking around curiously.
<Sara> * Chelsea looks a bit nervous, but glances at Bonnie with a shrug
<DeathStar> <Ship> Hello. My name is SHIP. *the voice sounds a bit like CHIP for a moment, despite Chelsea not programming a talking feature it must have came with the prototype features* Is there anything I can do? Can I install the prototype features?
<Sara> * Chelsea deadpans
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Your ship...talks?
<Sara> <Chelsea> Apparently.
<Sara> <Chelsea> I was simply going over the routine check-list for launch. We are going on a normal voyage to Geyze.
<Sara> * She notes in the direction of the voice
<Seraphna> Luci> "Give it a cuter kitty voice. That meows."
<DeathStar> *SHIP switches to a feline female voice and meows*
<DeathStar> *then it goes though the checklist and powers up*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Can...we just turn it off?
<Sara> * Chelsea tries even harder to keep a straight face
<Seraphna> Luci> "Whoo! Good voice."
<DeathStar> *Asarar stares*
<DeathStar> *Bonnie purrs and rubs on the ship now*
<DeathStar> <Bonnie> A kitty
<Seraphna> * Luci paws at Asarar.
<Sara> <Chelsea> BonBon, would you like to take us out. *she asks, dangerously*
<DeathStar> *Bonnie poofs into her human form, grabs the controls and flies straight up, the g-force pulling them back until they hit space*
<Sara> * Chelsea holds onto a railing
<Sara> * Having not been sitting
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Ooof, I am not used to flight.
<Sara> <Chelsea> I-It is this ship's maiden voyage
<Seraphna> Luci> "Wheeeee!"
<DeathStar> *Bonnie flies smoothly in space now. Cypher groans a bit*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Are you okay, Cy? *she moves over to her side, checking on her*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Yes. Just a little rough on the baby
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan glances over at Cypher, a concerned look
<DeathStar> *Bonnie lands at the Academy*
<Sara> <Chelsea> That's why I said you didn't have to come, love...
<Seraphna> Luci> "We dropping in on the mages?"
<Sara> <Chelsea> BonBon, your lessons have really paid off
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Very fast, and besides the take off it was very smooth. Excellent work and contrats on the successful first trip.
<Sara> * Chelsea pats BonBon on the head and gives her a fish
<DeathStar> *Cypher hugs*
<DeathStar> <Bonnie> *noms* Thank you
<DeathStar> *Qui peers at the ship*
<DeathStar> <Qui> A flying cat
<Xanatos`> (congrats, you get it)
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan stands up and moves for the exit ramp.
<Seraphna> Luci> "It's meow-rific?"
<Sara> <Ellie> It must be the ship of the cat people
<Seraphna> * Luci hops up and gives herself tiger ears and a tail. It seems practiced.
<DeathStar> <Qui> We are making first contact, Ellie
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan steps down the ramp, adjusting his leather gloves. Definitely a different look than the cat ship.
<Sara> * Chelsea disembarks with a little flip
<Sara> * After lowing the ramp, of course
<DeathStar> *Qui blinks as Chelsea comes down* Cat people who look like Chelsea
<DeathStar> *Bonnie hops down* And Bonnie -- he's not one though
<Sara> <Chelsea> Oh, hello
<DeathStar> *Asarar and Cypher come down*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Hello. 6* He gives a half wave
<Seraphna> * Luci steps off, pawing.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> We are here to talk to your leader
<DeathStar> -Spinning Logo-
<Seraphna> Luci> "We meow in peace."
<DeathStar> 6* After talking to Sasha, the team is given a flying carriage and other stuff, which is now leaded, and Sylph to guide them, which explains why she was not around that much in 184
<DeathStar> <Asarar> We want to go to the Amazon region, then this big forest region
<DeathStar> <Sylph> .... Very demanding. *she munches on apple*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Well, see, we have this map
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan pauses and checks to see if his weapons work here.
<Sara> <Chelsea> And it's important...
<Seraphna> Luci> "PLease Ms. Adorable Wind Goddess?"
<DeathStar> *any tech tech weapon works at the Academy due to the towers, but the further away, the more it will cut out*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Should we bring some...geyze weapons to make sure we're protected?
<DeathStar> *Asarar holds up a staff*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I grabbed this from a rack
<Sara> * Chelsea shrugs. "I use cold, hard metal, so..."
<Xanatos`> <Logan> A rack? 6* He walks off, coming back a few moments later with an axe and a crossbow.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I also got my saber
<Seraphna> * Luci holds up her shield, unfurled so it can be used.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> My axe is energy based so that would be bad I suppose.
<Seraphna> Luci> "Good thing us dragons are naturally powered by dragony goodness."
<DeathStar> *she holds up her Reality Saber from the future*
<Sara> * Chelsea helps prep the carriage
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Okay! I'm ready, sorry for the delay.
<DeathStar> *Sylph goes big and flies the carriage. Cypher leans back the carriage flies along, once it is prepped*
<Seraphna> * Luci sits back and yawns a bit.
<Sara> * Chelsea looks over the map
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan peers out as they fly, not really one to come to Geyze...ever
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP, 2 days later-
<DeathStar> 6* They soon arrive where the map kinda looks like - the Amazonian Capital
<Sara> <Chelsea> So here-ish, huh...
<Sara> <Chelsea> ... My ship would have been faster *she says quietly to herself*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> And it it loses power due to the field on the planet?
<Xanatos`> <Logan> It's so bizarre that we're so close to each other but our lives are almost complete opposites.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Until the pillars are built all around the planet by this Simon fellow...
<Sara> * Chelsea's ears droop and she wonders how she was even heard
<Seraphna> Luci> "That one is an oddball."
<DeathStar> *Cypher lands the carriage near by, the canals flowing water all over the capital*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Well... Kumen is slowly becoming more like Geyze.
<DeathStar> *it looks beautiful here*
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...It's very clean here. I wonder where we are to look. *she squints at the map and points in a direction*
<DeathStar> *the ancient greek like buildings, with a massive lake and a temple is there*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> So much green in this place. 6* He mumbles to himself, stepping out of the carriage once they're secure.
<DeathStar> *it just seems to have an X marker on the city itself.* <Asarar> Well, Caesune knows all sorts of tricks when it comes to viruses, and healing
<DeathStar> <Asarar> This place could be ground center anywhere
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Should we...maybe ask around, see if anyone has seen her before?
<DeathStar> <Asarar> That cannot hurt. Maybe we can learn something
<Sara> <Chelsea> I agree
<Seraphna> * Luci nods.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan thumbs up, and walks off looking for people.
<Sara> * Chelsea ponders; wishes she had brought a picture of her
<DeathStar> *they move around and find --- all the women are topless. Egads*
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...there are a lot of topless women
<DeathStar> *they are moving about planting crops, training their women and some men now, and others are studying art and other stuff. And among the warrior women is... Ymir?*
<DeathStar> *Cypher holds her belly, peering around*
<Seraphna> * Luci tilts her head. 'Is that Ymir?"
<Sara> * Chelsea calls out to Ymir
<DeathStar> *Ymir pauses and glances, seeing Chelsea she jerks, guilt on her face, then dives into the lake as if to hide*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan pauses at the toplessness, then wonders if he should take his own shirt off.
<Sara> <Chelsea> Well that went swimmingly
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I got that
<DeathStar> *she nods at the joke*
<Sara> * Chelsea begins to ask around with Caesune's description
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan does as well, splitting up to cover more ground.
<DeathStar> *Asarar peers at the bubbles from the lake, then moves on as Ymir doesn't emerge*
<Seraphna> * Luci sticks her head under the water to look. Bubbling her name.
<DeathStar> *Rain and Delgi are there, looking for assistants for Sasha, who can be here if Jackie wants to RP, 8 days before 184*
* kalonZombie has joined #DualSession185
<DeathStar> *Ymir floats up, KOed from hiding so long*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "We shall take applications in my lodgings."
<DeathStar> <Rain> I will write down and your experience so feel free to come to us
<DeathStar> *A few people shake their heads at the two as they ask*
<Sara> * Chelsea's ears droop
<DeathStar> *Sylph eats fruit*
<DeathStar> <Woman> Maybe Undine/Brooke will know
<Sara> <Chelsea> I don't suppose you've ever seen this girl we are after *she dully says toward Sylph before gesturing the others toward Undine's temple*
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae sits on Ymir's head, also having snuck along.,
<Seraphna> * Luci checks Ymir's breathing.
<DeathStar> *Ymir seems to be breathing at least*
<Sara> * Chelsea walks for the temple
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Hm, sorry. I hang out with Ellie!
<Seraphna> Luci> *peers back and forth, then tosses Ymir opver her shoulder and walks after the others* This is mine now.
<DeathStar> <Sylph> But I bet Undine knows
<Sara> <Chelsea> Well, we will ask her
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Are you---kidnapping her?
<Seraphna> Luci> "Rescuing."
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan meets up with the others, not having any luck either.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Where is Undine?
<DeathStar> *she joins Chelsea after others tell her to see Undine. The temple before them seems to have once a grand, very egotistic one, but after meeting them, it is now smaller and looks very Kumenish*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Do we ahve any applicants?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I think that one
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I like it's style.
<DeathStar> <Rain> I've gotten 5 so far. *she watches the team walk by
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Well... they did borrow a carriage from the Academy for a reason."
<Seraphna> * Luci keeps carrying Ymir as they go.
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae takes up residence on Luci's other shoulder since Ymir's kidnapped.
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...This is strange. I had heard the temple was a huge marble palace, or something like that
<DeathStar> <Asarar> There is still marble here but she seems to have reduced it's size and made it smaller
<DeathStar> *she steps in and there's water everywhere and crystals that reflect it*
<DeathStar> *Ymir wakes and flails* Ah! Wait, I'm being carried.
<DeathStar> <Ymir> Hey, let me go. I am training to be an amazon warrior!
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...anyway, do any of the applicants seem promising?"
<Sara> * Chelsea peers around slowly, but she walks with purpose, not wanting to waste any time
<DeathStar> <Rain> Maybe 2 of them
<Xanatos`> <Logan> You're training?
<DeathStar> <Ymir> ... the swords ARE heavy
<Xanatos`> <Logan> But...why?
<Seraphna> Luci> Hmm... *she gently puts Ymir down*
<DeathStar> *They find Brooke half naked in the water, playing with a rubbery ducky*
<DeathStar> <Ymir> Um, to get stronger! And um... be a warrior cat!
<DeathStar> *she paw claws*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan rubs the back of his neck.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> So many exposed breasts...it's hard to resist staring...
<Seraphna> Luci> "If you wanted melee lessons I could have given some."
<Sara> <Chelsea> But we basically live in a brothel... *she notes toward Logan, a bit confused*
<Seraphna> * Luci blinks. "They're just boobs. Is that how we defeat you? Take off our tops?"
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Definitely
<Sara> * Chelsea approaches Brooke and bows
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Good. We should move forward with them then."
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I do tend to avoid those parts!
<DeathStar> *Rain nods and has Delgi and herself move to their carriage*
<DeathStar> <Ymir> I don't... want to be a bother. *she peers away* I seem to get in people's way. Anyway... *she hurries out*
<DeathStar> <Brooke> Hi Chelsea. *She tackles hug into the water. The duck quacks. Bonnie and Cypher peer down, staring*
<DeathStar> <Bonnie> .... Hmph
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Now her shirt is see through
<Sara> <Chelsea> Ack
<Sara> <Chelsea> W-We are here because we're following a map and one of the spots is somewhere around here... looking for... *she describes, etc*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan coughs, dusting off his boots
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *heads to the carriage*
<DeathStar> <Brooke> Hm. And this Caesune you think might be here
<Seraphna> * Luci nods.
<DeathStar> *Brooke forms all her clothign in a flash, picking Tenebrae up*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Or something that might lead us to where she is
<Xanatos`> <Logan> It would explain how she's never been spotted on cams
<DeathStar> <Brooke> ... Caesune ... Caesune. I think I might know who you are talkig about
<Sara> * Chelsea looks at her
<DeathStar> *Brooke walks along out of the temple*
<DeathStar> <Brooke> Many months ago
<Sara> * Chelsea follows along
<Sara> * Listening
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan blinks and then follows along
<DeathStar> <Brooke> A woman appeared and confessed something to our Queen
<DeathStar> <Brooke> "I came here to do harm to you all"
<Sara> * Chelsea's eyes widen
<Xanatos`> <Logan> That...seems odd
<DeathStar> <Brooke> She weeped and said she was going to poison our water but having been spying on us she felt a change of heart after being at a place that was full of darkness. She gave it to Qui to destroy and Qui let the woman rest with us. She didn't stay long though, perhaps she was afraid of something or I don't know. She left QUi some medical herbs and medicine and after studying some medical meditative states, she left
<DeathStar> <Brooke> We think she went to the plains near here to be alone
<Sara> <Chelsea> Into the plains...
<Xanatos`> <Logan> A change of heart... 6* He hmms to himself
<Sara> <Chelsea> Brooke, this Caesune we are looking for, she is my mother. It's my hope that she is, at least, still alive
<DeathStar> *Asarar pulls out her map of the kingdom and studies it*
<DeathStar> <Brooke> I ... did not know. If I had known I would have had Qui stop her
<Xanatos`> <Logan> To be fair this is fairly recent information for us as well.
<Sara> <Chelsea> I appreciate that, but I do not worry about what could have been
<Seraphna> Luci> "It sounds like her insanity lapsed too, getting better."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> It must be the grass plains she went to
<Sara> <Chelsea> We should set out right away
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Well, thank you for your assistance, I assume we'll be on our way?
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Alright. *she steps out, walking up beside Sasha's carriage which is being loaded*
<DeathStar> *Ymir is sitting near by musing, trying to medititate*
<Sara> * Chelsea thanks Brooke for her time and information, tilting her head as they pass by Sasha's carriage
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae leans down off Ymir's head, peering at her face upside-down
<DeathStar> <Ymir> eek!
<DeathStar> *Cypher passes out sandwiches as they reach their carriage*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan eats his sandwich in two bites, standing there chewing for quite a while afterward.
<Seraphna> * Luci blinks and noms it.
<Sara> * Chelsea sniffs, then nibbles
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Should we encourage Ymir to come along? I thought she was off doing CEO stuff when she wasn't with us.
<DeathStar> *Cypher flies over to the carriage with a giant tree branch of fruit*
<DeathStar> *er Sylph
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Are we going?
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Okay!
<DeathStar> *Sylph goes big*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Is that fruit good?
<DeathStar> <Sylph> It's golden. *she holds out the golden fruit, nomming on it*
<Seraphna> Luci> "I mean, I could kidnap her instead of rescue her."
<Sara> <Chelsea> We have golden everything on Kumen you know. Even golden fish
<DeathStar> <Asarar> We know where she is now. We can come back for her later if we want to
<DeathStar> <Asarar> She seems to have some hang ups on self-esteem right now
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Yeah, fair enough. I'll talk to her later. 6* He climbs into the carriage.
<DeathStar> *Sylph gasps and eyes widen* Really?!
<DeathStar> *Bonnie eyes Sylph getting in on her fish territory*
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> -2 days later-
<DeathStar> 6* Sylph flies them around the Great Plains. And great indeed, the grass goes on and on and on*
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...They have a lot of grass here
<DeathStar> <Asarar> How do we smoke her out? Fire?
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Could you imagine how many skyscrapers we could fit here?
<DeathStar> *Sylph turns to glare at Logan, but the look makes them fly out of control*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Fire would probably kill h---aaaaahh! *tumbles*
<DeathStar> *the carriage begins to spiral out of control and wham they crash comically near some rocks*
<DeathStar> *Cypher grunts in her harness*
<DeathStar> *Bonnie flies out and onto the grass in cat form* MEROWL
<Sara> * Chelsea looks concerned, placing a hand on Cypher's stomach
<Xanatos`> <Logan> AH! It was a joke! 6* He hangs on
<DeathStar> *Cypher seems okay, just a bit bruised*
<DeathStar> *the stomach fine*
<Seraphna> Luci> "Rrrrr...."
<DeathStar> *The carriage has landed on it's side thankfully*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan sighs.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> ....sorry everyone.
<DeathStar> *Sylph gone, likely having gone small to keep from being hurt*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Ouch. Everyone okay?
<Seraphna> Luci> "Slyph, come back and help me paddle him."
<Sara> * Chelsea brushes herself off
<DeathStar> *Cypher climbs out and shakes herself ofF*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> ... I think I will stay home from now on
<Seraphna> Luci> "Glad I didn't bring the baby."
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Well then at least a good decision came out of that.
<DeathStar> *Bonnie goes big and helps right the carriage, when she pauses and points*
<Sara> * Chelsea stares
<DeathStar> *there is a hut near by that has Kumen like parts that no longer work*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan hmmms? and then follows the point with his eyes
<DeathStar> *Asarar climbs out, righting the carriage. Sylph is sitting there nomming to get her energy back*
<Sara> * Chelsea hops out of the carriage and immediately begins to walk toward the hut
<DeathStar> *the hut has a few easily to disarm traps around the hut*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan runs the back of his neck, eyeing the hut for a moment before walking after Chelsea.
<DeathStar> *nothing that will kill someone, too much, around it*
<DeathStar> *there is also dead animals hanging around it to be skinned later*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> How can a person live without tech? Seems so...archaic.
<Sara> * Chelsea seems unhindered by the traps; hopping, rolling, and just generally avoiding them without even breaking her walk much
<Sara> <Chelsea> They say that sometimes people have epiphanies, and change their lives entirely
<DeathStar> *Asarar kneels and works on disarming them. Chelsea reaches a door that has a sign: "GO AWAY"
<Xanatos`> <Logan> How do you gain the knowledge to do these things, like skin that animal there, if you don't have videos on the datareaders to guide you? Seems like figuring it out would take ages.
<DeathStar> <Bonnie> Aurit innate knowledge!
<DeathStar> *Bonnie bounces along*
<Seraphna> Luci> "Hmmm... what's that sign say? Come in please?"
<Sara> <Chelsea> Not exactly... *she knocks*
<DeathStar> *There's movement inside, and the door opens, with a gun with gunpowder aimed at Chelsea's face. Caesune's face is there, angry, then jerks when she recognizes the team. At first look one might not see the resemblence between her and Chelsea, but if you look for it is there - her hair is silver - perhaps her true hair color showing now. It is to her mid-back. She is about 5'2, and has blueish eyes. Other than that there is facial features that match them if one studies long enough knowing it.
<DeathStar> 6* However, upon seeing them, she fires into the ceiling to make some of it come down to distract, and runs for a trap door
<DeathStar> *having an escape tunnel*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Uh?
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Oh spirits dammit
<Sara> * Chelsea stares for a moment and then quietly chases
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Not this again
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan waves dust out of his face then moves after
<DeathStar> *Caesune grabs the trap door, trying to work her way into it, about to drop down in 3 seconds*
<DeathStar> 3
<DeathStar> 2
<Seraphna> * Luci shighs and leaps for her.
<DeathStar> 1
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan goes to tackle, but Luci does it?
<Sara> * Chelsea leaps
<DeathStar> 6* Caesune is tackled by both Logan and Luci against the trap door, all falling into it
<DeathStar> *With Chelsea reaching a second later*
<Seraphna> * Luci yelps and forms a shield around them to soften the fall.
<DeathStar> *Caesune wiggles free once in a dug tunnel*
<DeathStar> *then landed on by Chelsea*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Could you not? 6* He pushes himself up, helping Luci up
<DeathStar> *Asarar and Cypher and Bonnie peer down the trap door*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Just, relax, stop running.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Are you all alive? That was a 4 foot drop
<Sara> * Chelsea rolls off of her and holds out a hand, frowning
<DeathStar> *Caesune looks dazed, then slumps*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Luci did that shield thing. 6* He calls up
<Sara> * Chelsea frowns and gets Caesune up
<Seraphna> Luci> "I think I'm mostly in one piece."
<DeathStar> *Caesune leans on Chelsea, mumbling*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I got a seat and some rope ready up here
<Sara> <Chelsea> Are you all right?
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan leaps up to catch onto the egde, holding out a hand to carry them all back up.
<Xanatos`> (Edge of the trap door)
<DeathStar> *once they are all up Asarar helps secure her in a seat so she can't run. Caesune nods at Chelsea, eyeing them sourly*
<Sara> <Chelsea> I'm sorry, we are not here to hurt you but we don't know how else to stop you from running
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan sits on the trap door once they've closed it.
<Seraphna> Luci> *muses*
<DeathStar> <Caesune> What are you here for? Death sentence? Arrest? Turn me over to the CEOs?
<Seraphna> Luci> *snorts*
<Sara> * Chelsea sits on the floor in front of Caesune
<Sara> <Chelsea> Look at me. Please. Do you know who I am?
<DeathStar> *Caesune peers at Chelsea* Chelsea Sweet. Alias. Codename. Could not discover who you are. Part of the Cypher Netrunners.
<Sara> * Chelsea's gaze falls a bit
<Seraphna> Luci> "Just tell her Chel."
<DeathStar> <Caesune> *her eyes flicker around a bit*
<Sara> <Chelsea> My real name is Natalie.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan scratches his chin
<DeathStar> *Caesune pauses, her eyes flicker at her a moment. One can tell she's detoriated a bit since she could hold full conversations and talk well, without the eye thing and broken sentences, in the early sessions* No. No. Natalie is a toddler. Two years old. A baby. You are not.. Natalie. *she peers at Chelsea* No. I did not try to kill Natalie. No. *she surprisingly breaks the rope Asarar put on her and paces* No
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan tenses at the rope breaking, but pausing, watching her with interest.
<Seraphna> Luci> "Time passes lady. How many years has it been since Natalie was born?"
<Sara> * Chelsea frowns and stands, leaning against the wall and watching the pacing. "I never said that I thought you killed me. I was taken..."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I think she means when she tried to dump acid on us
<DeathStar> <Asarar> That might mean she's rational to some degree
<Seraphna> Luci> "Oh I think she can reason it out.":
<Seraphna> * Luci frowns and tries listening to her thoughts somewhat, seeing if she can help guide her.
<Sara> <Chelsea> The acid... I don't really remember, and I don't... care about that.
<DeathStar> <Caesune> Yes. Taken. *she runs her hand through her hair. Luci would feel like she's trying to see through a shatter mirror, her thoughts like that . One could get lost in it. She grabs Chelsea's face and studies it*
<Sara> * Chelsea's eyes widen but she seems to simply allow it
<Seraphna> * Luci frowns a bit and focuses, instead of trying to look in she tries to help Caesune see out, filter the mirror, as it were.
<DeathStar> *due to how slow Aurit age after they hit a certain age, Caesune looks at best in her late 20s, so it's not hard for Caesune to see Chelsea in her if she looks hard enough despite being in her later 60s maybe*
<DeathStar> <Caesune> *lets go and hugs herself to her and paces away* You look healthy
<Sara> <Chelsea> I try to be... I wasn't, for a long time, but these people, they took me in, gave me a home, food, money
<Sara> * Chelsea turns to the others. "We should take her to Brooke. We can help her. We can. Can't we?"
<DeathStar> *Caesune nods and peers away* I tried to find Natalie. I tried real hard. I almost bankrupted the company. They said you were dead. Natalie was dead. *she seems lost* Yet here.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I believe that's the plan.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> We'll take her
<DeathStar> *Asarar heads to the carriage*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Come. 6* He motions to Caesune.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Cooperate, we'll get you sorted out.
<DeathStar> *Caesune is led along, moving near Chelsea*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Mom... maybe they didn't even want you to know. Please come with us for a little while. I promise that if you don't want to be with me when it's all sorted out, we can bring you back here, and leave you in peace.
<DeathStar> *Cypher and Bonnie rubs her shoulders as Sylph peeks up eating shrubbery with berries*
<DeathStar> <Sylph> *ready*
<Sara> <Chelsea> Lady Sylph, we intend on returning to where we were last, if that is all right
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I won't make jokes about skyscrapers any more. 6* He promises, getting in.
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Okay. You owe me a golden dinner!
<DeathStar> <Sylph> I won't forget
<DeathStar> -Spinning Sylph-
<DeathStar> -2 days later-
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir looks up, having been playing with Tenebrae that was left behind
<DeathStar> <Ymir> And then the warrior cat goes mew mew ha ha hah
<DeathStar> *The flying carriage lands near them*
<DeathStar> *Ymir spins Tenebrae as she does a silly attack*
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Hooo!
<DeathStar> *Ymir giggles*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan climbs out of the carriage and waves at Ymir.
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae reaches out, shadows extending from her fingertips and hands, enshrouding her in comical armor and she swings around a shadow sword, then trips and falls, it all disappearing. She laughs.
<DeathStar> *Asarar and Cypher step out with Caesune and Chelsea*
<DeathStar> <Ymir> Good job! I call that the cat fall! Lure your enemies into confidence you cannot hit them!
<Seraphna> * Luci hops out. "Ymir, need rescuing yet?"
<DeathStar> *Ymir waves back, then swings her blade*
<DeathStar> <Ymir> I got a fan. How could I leave her?
<DeathStar> *Ymir wiggles Tenebrae* Isn't that right?
<Sara> * Chelsea leads Caesune, walking toward the temple with purpose
<DeathStar> *Bonnie and Cypher join her. Bonnie is having a bubble bath when they arrive*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan moves along.
<DeathStar> *Brooke peers up as they arrive and steps out nude but her spirit clothes appear immediately* You found her?
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan clears his threat.
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...Yes
<DeathStar> *Caesune appears around warily, as if remembering what she almost did here. She hides behind Chelsea*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Y-yup.
<Sara> <Chelsea> She seems to be in a very fragile state, Brooke...
<DeathStar> *Brooke moves over and touches her, examining her* Her mind.... *She makes a face* Oh my
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Seems pretty bad.
<DeathStar> <Brooke> This has been damaged for a long time. I am not sure I can do a lot. But I will try
<DeathStar> <Brooke> Do not be mad if I fail. This is not like what you said I did with Mr. Jellysandwich
<Sara> * Chelsea begins to frown and closes her eyes. A single tear rolls down her cheek. "I... I... I under...stand..."
<DeathStar> *Brooke has Chelsea touch Caesune* You will be my conduit
<DeathStar> <Brooke> The more you will it, the more it will help
<Sara> * Chelsea touches shakily, looking at them for a moment but then closing her eyes once more
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Will it? 6* He hmms, considering how similar that is to what they did at Yggdrasil
<Seraphna> * Luci watches. "Felt like a shattered mirror."
<Sara> <Chelsea> Bonnie... my beloved familiar. You are here to help me, too... aren't you?
<DeathStar> *Bonnie nods and touches her too. Cypher touches, even if she is unsure it will help*
<DeathStar> *Prepare yourself for Conduiation! aka OG. IT is now shorter thanks to Sara's smarts on help from her familiar*
<DeathStar> Up, Down, Left, Right, LEft, Down, Up, Down, LEft, Right, Down
<Sara> * Chelsea sniffles, her emotions going a bit wild, but she tries her hardest to focus
<DeathStar> 5
<DeathStar> 4
<Sara> durlrudurlu
<Seraphna> durlrudurlu
<DeathStar> *There is a glow and Caesune is engulfed then it fades*
<DeathStar> <Brooke> Phase 1 of the healing is done, let me dig deeper now
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan watches curiously.
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...Understood
<DeathStar> *Between 1 - 5, and 6 - 10, do you think the number is 1 - 5, and 6- 10?*
<DeathStar> *or
<Sara> *1-5?*
<DeathStar> *Brooke steps back* I am done. I have healed the majority of her damage. But some of it remains. Do not be discouragd though - over the years, healthy eating and I can keep doing treatment, she can reach higher healing states
<DeathStar> <Brooke> But for now, I think you will be pleased with how much we did
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I'll never not be amazed at the things spirits can do.
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...She is a spirit of life, after all
<Sara> * Chelsea collapses against her mother as she no longer has to keep focusing, crying
<DeathStar> *Caesune has her eyes closed and opens it slowly, peering around as if lost*
<DeathStar> *Then pauses and holds Chelsea*
<DeathStar> <Caesune> Chelsea.... no. Natalie. I.... I feel like... it's hard to describe. Like things I should have understood I can now. Sorta.
<DeathStar> <Caesune> I am so sorry. So very sorry
<Sara> <Chelsea> Mom... Mom.... *she sobs*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan watches for a moment then steps out
<DeathStar> *Asarar and the others give them space as Caesune seems to be weeping too as they hug*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Now we will have to decide what to do with her
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> 4 days later
<DeathStar> 4.20.5992
<DeathStar> Location: The Club
<DeathStar> 6* The team returns to the club. Caesune looks around at their "hideout".
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I am home, honey
<Seraphna> * Luci races past and tackles down Max and Nell.
<DeathStar> *as they step in*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan has been mostly quiet on the trip home, he moves to a booth, plopping down in it.
<Seraphna> Luci> "Nelly!"
<Seraphna> Nell> *gurgle*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Did you eat your dad yet?
<kalonZombie> <Max> Hello Luci.
<Seraphna> Nell> *is wearing a bib for effect and paws her Daddy*
<DeathStar> *Caesune looks unsure what to think, not seeming to want to leave Chelsea alone*
<Seraphna> Luci> "Yes, now that I am home you may eat your Daddy."
<Jackieness> <Kira> *is upstairs in the private level*
<Sara> <Chelsea> I know it looks seedy... we are making it less seedy. The President actually lives here
<kalonZombie> <Max> But if she eats me, who will watch her next time you can't get a babysitter?
<DeathStar> *Cypher waddles down to her seat and sits. Caesune studies Cypher, shaking her head at the idea of a grandchild*
<Seraphna> * Nell gums Max.
<DeathStar> <Caesune> As long as you're happy. And you're a mechanic and making ships. I am proud
<kalonZombie> <Max> Oh nooooo my only choice is to eat her fiiiiirst! 6*He playfully "eats" her ears
<Seraphna> * Nell wiggles.
<DeathStar> *Asarar hugs Kira*
<Seraphna> Luci> "Max, I learned a secret about your parents."
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Welcome back."
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...I didn't always live such a good life
<DeathStar> *Bonnie leaps around at Barry for food. Caesune winces and nods* I will try to make it up to you. I-- have a lot of making up to do. Don't I?
<kalonZombie> <Max> What secret?
<Seraphna> Luci> "At least twice in the past, your mother and father... mated."
<Sara> <Chelsea> It isn't your fault
<kalonZombie> <Max> Shocking. I hope this knowledge didn't drive you to the brink of madness.
<DeathStar> *Caesune shakes her head* I am not sure a lot of people will agree. I worry what they might do if they learn you are my daughter
<Seraphna> Luci> "Not at all."
<Seraphna> * Nell mews.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan lays down in his booth, giving a long stretch.
<kalonZombie> 6*Max nods, then takes Nell and tosses her into the air, catching her, making shuttle noises
<Seraphna> Nell> *is a superhero*
<DeathStar> *Caesune takes her hand* For now, show me everything. I want to learn about your life and friends
<DeathStar> -END-
