<ChadWinters`> Bad Kit!
* Xanatos` owned a puppy once.
<Xanatos`> Now they're all doggos.
<kalonZombie> What's a doggo?
* Kemonohime breaks Chad's nose with a golf club.
<kalonZombie> A big pupper.
<kalonZombie> What's a pupper?
<kalonZombie> A small doggo.
<Xanatos`> Onyx is getting grey in hsi beard and he's barely 2 years old. Grampa doggo

<DeathStar> 4.1.6061
<DeathStar> Location: C'en Homeworld
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki puts on some light armor, Erica in her room, having caught a light virus of sorts from the planet that has her in bed recovering from the ship's medical bay. She steps onto the planet's surface, eyeing the crater where the crystal structure grows from the ground
<Seraphna> * Cookie all armored up as well steps down with her, peering around.
<DeathStar> 6* Qui opts to stay behind, since the terrain is so rough and she is missing her leg, plus to keep an eye on Erica. Shion and Mhion both walk down the ramp off the Aquarius onto the planet's surface
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor follows, ready to go home
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon readies his spear and puts on some spare armor. After a bit of fiddling he walks down by the others, tugging at his neck.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Pretty, in it's own way."
<DeathStar> 6* The main crystal structure is big, as tall as a major skyscraper on Kumen, and all around it are ten pillars. Around those pillars are gates, many ranging in various sizes. Some are big enough for ships to pass through, which is what they came here to try to grab
<DeathStar> <Mhion> The planetary defenses should ignore us until we actually try to mess with anything
<DeathStar> <Mhion> Or until we're spotted by patrols.
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Don't touch anything. Got it.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "And be sneaky."
<DeathStar> <Shion> So we have a bit to look around until we grab the Gate.
<DeathStar> 6* Shion walks along quietly, peering around and scanning the crater
<DeathStar> <Shion> I still find it amazing the damage here is only 20 years old.
<Kemonohime> * Saoirse stays behind as well, not wanting to drag Yulindhe off the ship with Erica being behind and Qui as well. Kasha stretches slowly, her movements like one who has just awoken.
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon gives a slight twitst to stretch out a bit in the armor, then follows along after Shion. He looks about as he moves, looking in awe at the structures.
<DeathStar> 6* Shion walks up to the main crystal structure, and circles it with her datapad. There seems to be no opening
<DeathStar> <Shion> How do you get inside?
<DeathStar> <Mhion> Beats me. Never been in it
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> ..." She knocks. "Yo, can we enter?"
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Wait... what?
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon leans forward, peering curiously then pauses and glances to Kasha.
<DeathStar> 6* When Kasha knocks, the structure begins to glow
<DeathStar> 6* Shion whips back, her eyes widening
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor just stares at Kasha
<Kemonohime> * Kasha puts a hand on her hip, waiting.
<DeathStar> 6* Crystal spires from the structure grab Kasha's arm
<DeathStar> 6* And begin to try to pull her in
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor rushes over to try and pull Kasha away
<DeathStar> 6* Shion pulls her staff out, trying to smash the crystal
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon moves to help Shion with his spear, slashing and smashing.
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor tries to willingly use foxfire to help get Kasha away, though his ability to use it is spotty even in the best of times. Up to DS if it works or not.
<DeathStar> 6* The crystal seems to chip away slowly, this stuff seems to be made of reality crystal, the pure stuff.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> It's not actually doing anything, if you get violent it'll probably change its mind.
<Xanatos`> <Simon> It's pulling you in.
<DeathStar> <Shion> If you get...pulled in...we won't be able to get you out..!
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Well, I did ask to go inside. But okay, we'll find another way.
<Seraphna> * Cookie forms her guns, frowning.
<DeathStar> 6* Shion channels her energy, trying to use all her power
<DeathStar> <Shion> If you want to go in I won't stop you
<DeathStar> <Shion> But it may be one way forever
<Kemonohime> * Kasha flexes her other hand a moment, then slowly lets out her breath and smashes her fist into the crystal with a strange resonating sound like a musical instrument.
<DeathStar> 6* The crystal still seems resistant, another chip gone, Kasha almost inside. Shion smashes again, taking another chunk, then Mhion hits, leaving just a thread
<Seraphna> * Cookie aims and takes a shot at the thread carefully.
<DeathStar> 6* It shatters, freeing Kasha
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon takes a step back afterward and checks the status of his spear.
<Kemonohime> * Kasha takes a few steps back, not looking worried.
<DeathStar> 6* The area's crystals begin to turn red afterward, as if the place has gone angry.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Then... where to?
<DeathStar> <Mhion> I think it knows we are here now. Gor, come with me into the Network
<Seraphna> Cookie> "We shuld get away from this area. And not touch anything else."
<kalonZombie> <Gor> ...Momma K... sometimes I wonder about you
<DeathStar> 6* She grabs him and moves
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor moves to go with Mhion
<Kemonohime> * Kasha peers at Gor a moment, but says nothing, looking blank.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Back to the ship. We need to power it up and grab the laregest gateway we can find
<Kemonohime> * Kasha then moves after Shion.
<Seraphna> * Cookie nods and turns to head back, she looks towards Gor. "Good luck."
<DeathStar> <Shion> Before it tries to grab all of us.. *she eyes tendrils trying to grab her now*
<DeathStar> 6* Shion moves back for the ship. Shion tosses down her datapad, leaving it behind so she can hopefully get readings from the planet
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon jumps back, deflecting with his spear and nods to Shion, moving after her, dodging whatever he can.
<Seraphna> * Cookie moves, making sure Yuki's with them.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki seems to be eyeing a plant, then jerks as the group runs by, following
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Why are we running?
<Kemonohime> * Kasha eyes Shion's tactic and holds out her hand, focusing her chi toward the ground, activating foliage to cover it so it might remain hidden.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Kasha made it angry."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "We've gotta go."
<DeathStar> 6* Shion eyes the tendrils focused mostly on Kasha and Shion, leaving the others right now
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> I did? I asked pollitely.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Interesting
<DeathStar> *Shion ducks around others, using them as shields
<DeathStar> 6* Then runs up the ramp*
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> The ship, is it, Shichan?
<Seraphna> * Cookie carries the Yuki.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Yes. <Yuki> *comms Sao* Power up the engines*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We're making a run for the largest gate you can see and grapple it
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon tries to deflects another as Shion runs around him and lets out a sigh, moving to go up the ramp as well.
<Kemonohime> * Kasha stops at the ramp and turns, focusing a moment, then thrusts both hands forward, creating a simple semi-sphere barrier of her chi briefly to repel incoming, not wanting them to mess with the ship.
<DeathStar> 6* The tendrils whap at the shield, then retreat, too small to mess with the ship as they are.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> We're fine now.
<Kemonohime> * Kasha closes the ramp after she enters.
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, the pillars begin to make larger tendrils, though they are taking time to form
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki hops off Cookie and moves to the bridge to join Saorise and Mireille, taking over the pilot controls and sits.
<Seraphna> * Cookie follows, blinking as her seat is taken, so she moves over to watch Yuki.
<Kemonohime> * Saoirse relinquishes control and gets off, gesturing for Cookie.
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon slows to a stop on the bridge and peers forward.
<Xanatos`> <Simon> I don't believe they want us to leave.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Alright, we are taking off. *Shion sits calmly, feeding her datapad into the ship's computers. Yuki flies for the gate, motioning someone to grapple it as she comes in*
<Kemonohime> * Saoirse connects the main HUB to her datapad and heads back toward the captain's quarters.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Someone wants me and mother. They must like us
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I am making the approach
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> I'll give you three guesses who and why.
<Seraphna> * Cookie sets up the grapple.
<DeathStar> Left, Right, Right, Right, Left, Up, Up, Up, Up
<DeathStar> 5
<DeathStar> 4

<DeathStar> 2
<DeathStar> 1
<Xanatos`> 6* rlllrdddd
<Seraphna> rlllrdduu
<DeathStar> -0-
<DeathStar> 6* The grapple smashes the top of the gate badly, and the ship jerks. The grapple not connecting right as they begin to pull away.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Leaping away!
<Seraphna> * Cookie ties to adjust it.
<Seraphna> *tries
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki begins to jump. Cookie as three seconds to adjust. Up, Down
<DeathStar> 3
<DeathStar> 2
<Seraphna> du
<DeathStar> 1
<DeathStar> 6* It locks
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki zooma
<Seraphna> * Cookie lets out a sigh of relief.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Hm. I would have to look into possible candidates to make a good guess
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Setting course for Kumen
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki locks in and leaps into spirit light speed
<Kemonohime> * Kasha riles Shion's hair.
<DeathStar> 6* Shion blinks
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> If it's interested in you and I, who else could it have anything to do with but Miyuki.
<DeathStar> 6* Qui peers down and decides to have her leg fixed, letting out a sigh, missing her brother
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Good catch. 6* He tells cookie, letting out a sigh before taking an empty seat.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Somehow, someway, she's had something to do with just about anything and everything since Cheryl dug us up.
<DeathStar> <Shion> I suppose so. But I don't remember any of our family being involved with Centerpoint's final battle
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> It wouldn't be the first time in my life I was wrong, but call it a hunch.
<DeathStar> *Shion nods*
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Besides, not everything on this side works exactly the way we know and believe it should, but is connected none the less.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Look at 'Cheryl.'
<DeathStar> <Shion> Cheryl?
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Or many of the brats we've picked up.
<DeathStar> (The ship group hasn't run into anyone but Shion's other)
<DeathStar> (Wait, they have run into Wind)
<Kemonohime> (Mmhmm.)
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Alright, how long will this portion of the trip be?
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Yes, Cheryl. Miyuki messed with things beyond reasonable.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> But who had those powers before she did?
<DeathStar> <Shion> Well, we have a few more years. I suppose I will spend it this time preparing. We have to get ready to save our friends and family back on Kumen. That duplicate of Wind thinks with this Gate we can do a reset
<DeathStar> <Shion> If I had to guess, 30 again. But if we do a mini paradox like Wind suggests, all of this might not even be in our memories, Simon
<DeathStar> <Shion> With paradoxes, it's hard to say how it'll play out
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> I'm not so sure about that.
<Kemonohime> * Kasha holds up her hand over Shion's
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Paw.
<DeathStar> 6* Shion pauses, then laughs, pawing Kasha's hand
<Kemonohime> * Kasha drops broken shards of crystal into her hand.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "So we have to minimalize it."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> That stuff was the real deal.
<Xanatos`> <Simon> I would like to prepare more as well, so I may only partially freeze.
<Kemonohime> * Kasha plays with a last one between her thumb and finger, holding it up to the bridge cabin lights overhead.
<DeathStar> *Shion nods, thoughtfully* Yes. Either way, when we warn our past selves, we'll see how it effects everything.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I suppose if people are going in and out I have to be around to monitor them. Good thing I don't age."
<DeathStar> Location: 6.24.6091 - 30 years later
<DeathStar> Location: The C'en Base
<DeathStar> 6* Riki throws pancakes around at the kids
<DeathStar> <Riki> Food time
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ leaps in and snags his pancakes
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga eyes the food on her plate
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> momma its....a lot
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Thanks miss Ruhi's mom.
<DeathStar> <Riki> You kids are still growing
<Chaintan> <Wolfe> you kids need your strength
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ shoves pancakes into his mouth
<DeathStar> 6* Cloe eats happily
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> dad I cant see you behind these stacks...
<Seraphna> * Nell devours pancakes.
<DeathStar> 6* Riki wiggles, wearing only an apron
<kalonZombie> <Max> That kid needs to learn how to chew.
<Seraphna> * Luci yawns a bit. "She gets it from you."
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ stares at Riki
<DeathStar> 6* Shade sits in her seat, eyeing the pancake oddly, poking it. Then gives it to Tenebrae
<kalonZombie> <Max> I was talking about her stalker but yeah Nell too.
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix watches them eat for a moment before reaching out to take one pancake slowly, peering it over.
<Seraphna> * Nell, Devourer of Pancakes, CONSUMES.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sits at the table, eyeing the pancakes. She hands some to Miyuki's cubs
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ looks at Bix "You want that?
<DeathStar> 6* Isis hums, knitting clothes for the kids
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae cheers, devouring a second. "... Ruhi's waffles better."
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Food: Interesting!
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> MOM WEAR CLOTHES
<DeathStar> 6* Riki jerks at Tenebrae's words. She falls over
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ shrugs and keeps devouring food while staring at Riki
<Kemonohime> * Vyvy jerks, catching Riki.
<DeathStar> <Riki> ... *her ears droop, then she hugs Ruhi* You have surpassed me
<Chaintan> <Wolfe> Hon...
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi pets her mom and sighs
<DeathStar> *Riki takes the apron off, fully nude* You are the chef now
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae blinks, confused.
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> MOM!
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ stops chewing as he stares
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> I have a feeling she just prefers waffles...
<DeathStar> *Riki sniffles, putting on clothes as instructed*
<Seraphna> * Luci enjoys the sight quietly while she nibbles a pancake.
<Kemonohime> * Vyvy rubs Riki's head, looking to Wolfe for help
<kalonZombie> <Max> <How come you never cook naked for me?>
<DeathStar> *Shade looks at her wife* Is this something you want me to do?
<Seraphna> Luci> <Shhh. I'm trying to save this vision.>
<DeathStar> *Riki looks at Vyvy appreciateively*
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae peers between the two of them.
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Maybe... later. These are delicious, Riki. Thanks.
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix takes a piece of the pancake and squishes it between his fingers, then holds another piece up toward his mouth making chewing motions without actually putting food in his mouth.
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher and Asarar talk quietly, seeming to be trying to make plans
<DeathStar> <Riki> Thank you
<DeathStar> <Seniga> *finishes her food. Selena comes down stairs, her short hair a mess*
<DeathStar> <Selena> It's energic today
<DeathStar> *Selena seems to, now that the parents are back, taking a back seat to things*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan walks by, carrying some things, then comes back stopping to chat with Cypher and Asarar.
<Seraphna> Luci> "Come eat kiddo."
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Logan
<kalonZombie> <Max> It's delicious, Riki.
<DeathStar> *Selena sits down, stabbing a pancake and eating it plain*
<DeathStar> <Riki> *wags*
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae uses her shadows to snatch Selena over to herself, taking the stabbed pancake and offering it out to her
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi finishes eatting while Wolfe finishes his fifth
<DeathStar> *Riki gropes Ruhi* Tomorrow Ruhi will wear the apron only and make waffles
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae cheers
<Seraphna> * Luci smiles and gets Riki a pat.
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> what!?
<kalonZombie> <LJ> I SECOND THIS IDEA!
<DeathStar> <Riki> It's tradition sweetie
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Ruki waffles!
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I think I've got most of our supplies prepped. Think we'll be ready to move soon?
<Seraphna> Nell> "Third, I like Waffles!"
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> I AM WEARING MORE THAN AN APRON
<DeathStar> <Riki> Aw. Tradtion broken
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Ruhi you heard your mom it's a tradition.
<DeathStar> *Riki sulks*
<Chaintan> <Wolfe> I rather she didnt either with boys around
<DeathStar> <Riki> That's okay, I got Mr. Pain if they look
<DeathStar> *she holds out a large bat*
* Jackieness has joined #DualitySession148
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ becomes suddenly very interested in his pancakes
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi holds her face in her hands
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Mr. Pain!
<DeathStar> <Cypher> I'm still trying to think of how to do something to fix this
<Seraphna> Luci> "Yeah, those darn boys sneaking a peek."
<Seraphna> * Nell rolls her eyes at her mother and has more pancakes.
<kalonZombie> <Max> Darn those boys.
<kalonZombie> 6*He sips coffee, not looking.
<DeathStar> *Selena slowly eats, red in the face*
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki peeks out in apron only
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar pauses, moving over to a C'en computer. She snaps her fingers, making Cheryl come over like a dog
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I'm not sure there is a fix.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> You, blonde demon
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> Isis dear, did you want juice or milk
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ stares at Miyuki
<DeathStar> <Cypher> .... *She comes over, red eye and evil aura*
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae looks around for Seniga, squinting, then snatches her too, alternating.
<DeathStar> <Isis> Juice ~
<Seraphna> * Nell peers over at Cheryl quietly.
<DeathStar> <Seniga> H-Hey
<DeathStar> <Asarar> What's this signal?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It means that an enemy ship has been detected
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Hey! Don't call friend demon!
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar peers at Tenebrae, then lets out a breath, giving Cheryl a nod of apology
<Seraphna> * Luci frowns hard. "...If it's a C'en console... doesn't that mean it's a friendly ship?"
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Friendly!?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yes. It most likely means one of your ships is being detected. If I still had my status, I would try to protect it with my elite status
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> But they want to hang me
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Could we hack it? That used to be a thing we did.
<Seraphna> * Luci blinks a bit. "...But... wait... could it be the Aquarius somehow?"
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> It's OK! Cherry can hang with us!
<DeathStar> <Male Voice> I will handle it
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix and Logan both turn to the voice.
<DeathStar> <Female Voice that sounds like Shion> Yes. Let us handle the ship
<Kemonohime> * Vyvy shifts quickly, reaching for a sword-- that's not there, she winces.
<Seraphna> * Luci peers over the the voice.
<DeathStar> *they both come out of the cmoputer
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki, Ruhi and Wolfe turn
<Seraphna> Luci> "Umm... who...?"
<DeathStar> 6* The computer marks the ship as no longer red and marked "Elite status"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Interesting
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> TWO elites handling it?
<Seraphna> Luci> "Seems we have even more people who think like you, Cherry?"
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Sounds like Wind!
<Seraphna> Luci> "Who?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Wind is another Elite, higher up than me
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Wind help one when fighting with Cherry sister before.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> More dissidents?
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Say married to Miyuki.
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae pauses, then glances over where Miyuki was.
<DeathStar> 6* Isis peers at Miyuki
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> What
<kalonZombie> <Max> ...Miyuki?
<kalonZombie> <Max> Is there something you'd like to share?
<Seraphna> Luci> "HOw many people are you married to anyway?"
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> More than me, I think
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> I have THREE wives thank you and NO husb---well Hi likes being called that but thats besides the point
<DeathStar> <Shade> I am impressed, Headmitressed
<Jackieness> <Kira> *walks back into view, pulling Bella along behind her* "We've been having a moment."
<DeathStar> 6* The Elites seem to be making the "enemy ship" land near the capital
<Seraphna> Luci> <Can we marry Wolfe and Riki? We might be able to win then.>
<kalonZombie> <Max> <I think Jan might have something to say about that>
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Should we take a team and meet up with them?
<Seraphna> Luci> <Who... oh right... that lady.>
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Oh! Can one go!?
<DeathStar> <Shade> If you're careful
<DeathStar> <Selena> I'll stay here
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Wait-- really?
<DeathStar> <Shade> She's been doing a bunch on her own already
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Yeah, but... isn't this our problem?
<Kemonohime> * She looks at the other parents
<DeathStar> <Shade> The others can watch over her too. She should have this chnce
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher prepares to go, waving Cheryl to go in case the other Elites are dangerous
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Besides, I still have mama's sword. She's useless without it or Spira or the Great Mamas!
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Whoever plans to come, lets go
<Seraphna> * Luci and Nell both grab things to go.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan gets ready to go while Bix seems more interested in his pancake.
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae forms the moonflower blade, wiggling it tauntingly. Vyvy jerks back and looks a little hurt.
<kalonZombie> 6*Max moves to go, LJ as well
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Th-That's mean..
<DeathStar> *Spira is in a cat comma, and Salamander seems to not be willling to go
<kalonZombie> <Max> Oi. Dog. Your other woman might be coming home.
<DeathStar> *Shade pats Vyvy* You are my warrior priestess
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> F-Fine... but be careful...
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki comforts Salamander
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> its alright
<DeathStar> *Salamander smiles at Miyuki. The other spirits seem to be resting, too, not willing to venture out in a world low on mana*
<DeathStar> <Salamander> Be careful out there
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> I suppose I should look after the spirits." She sulks.
<DeathStar> *Celsius signs that Vyvy is totally brave*
<Kemonohime> * Vyvy hugs Celsius as Tenebrae lines up to venture out
<Jackieness> <Kira> *moves over by Asarar* "So what did we miss?"
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP - you can decide who comes along-
<DeathStar> <Cypher> *to Kira* And that's about it
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher peers over the hill, watching where two shapes are standing, waiting on the ship to land. A man in a trench coat, looking to be in his mid-twenties. Miyuki, if she came, would recognize him - he looks just like their Wind
<Jackieness> <Kira> "So meet up with the ship..."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sits, sulking at being dragged along as a tool to be used against other Elites
<kalonZombie> <LJ> That guy looks like a nerd...
<Seraphna> <Nell> Seems like they didn't bring henchies.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Basically. We think it might be the Aquarius, but we don't know if these two are good Elites or not. Tenebrae says the male is
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan checks his weapons, making sure he's ready just in case.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "If this Wind is, then the other likely is as well."
<Seraphna> Nell> "Who's the other?"
<DeathStar> 6* The female, looking to be 20ish, turns. It looks like Shion
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Her voice seemed familiar.
<kalonZombie> <Max> If they're not I've got a giant hammer and enough muscule to use it
<DeathStar> 6* The two seem to be talking, like father and daughter
<Seraphna> Luci> "Looks like that Shion girl."
<Jackieness> <Bella> "I don't know. They're kinda tough."
<Chaintan> 6*Wolfe, Ruhi and a dressed Miyuki huff in unison
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae hops over and starts trotting over to Wind
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Wind-called~
<Seraphna> Nell> THere goes our ice breaker.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind nods his head, in the direction of the others. Then peers in Tenebrae's direction
<DeathStar> <Wind> Tenebrae
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae stops and salutes, smiling.
<Seraphna> * Nell sighs and follows.
<DeathStar> <Wind> I see you are alive still and got your parents back
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae nods, being a little younger looking, black-haired and blue-eyed, no rings and lacking the elf ears. She's human.
<kalonZombie> <Max> 'Sup.
<DeathStar> <Mhion> Still helping the little ones, I see dad
<DeathStar> <Mhion> Even 30 years later
<Seraphna> * Luci sighs and follows over.
<kalonZombie> 6*Max and LJ follow
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> He stopped me from eating a little one
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> I didn't want to... thank you!
<Seraphna> Nell> You didn't?
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks down the hill, grumbling. Wind seems amused, especially with the timeline, Wind was helping people a bit longer then she was
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> ..." She peers over her shoulder at Nell. "No, not after learning it was Cheryl's sister."
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> But she wouldn't listen.
<Seraphna> Nell> "That Zephyr lady?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> Not all the Elites are. Some are loyal. Some have their own agenda. Some do what they want
<DeathStar> <Wind> Mhion here is a part time helper
<DeathStar> <Mhion> Shion
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae nods at Wind, toeing shyly. "Cheryl had to say good-bye to her.."
<DeathStar> <Wind> It makes it easier when Legeandery shows up
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Nice to meet you, Shion!
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Hi Shion.
<DeathStar> *Above in the sky, the Aquarius can be seen, lowering down to land*
<Seraphna> Luci> "Now there's a sight for the eyes..."
<DeathStar> <Mhion> ... *she nods*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan peers up, squinting.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> ... they're alive
<kalonZombie> <Max> Hell yeah.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...so it is the Aquarius."
<DeathStar> <Wind> I'd hope so. Took great pains to help them
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Someone good at math, how old is that ship now?
<Seraphna> Luci> "So it's them flying it?"
<DeathStar> <Cypher> 101 years
<Seraphna> Nell> "It looks... sturdy for a grandpa ship."
<kalonZombie> <Max> Hey, it's older than the boot Wolfe likes to chew.
<DeathStar> 6* The ship lands gracefully. Wind does his status report, claiming the ship has been taken prisoner
<Chaintan> <Wolfe> shut up
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki studies Wind and then Mhion
<kalonZombie> <Max> Miss Miyuki, Wolfe is being mean to me.
<DeathStar> 6* Shion peers a Miyuki, double taking
<Jackieness> <Bella> "...sooooo... now what?"
<DeathStar> <Mhion> Mom? No. The Legendary
<Xanatos`> <Logan> We check on the crew. Sync up our knowledge.
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> yes...
<DeathStar> 6* The ramp lowers. It jerks, as if old now. And almost doesn't come out
<DeathStar> 6* Mhion turns away
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Ah, so other Miyuki!
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki sniffs, missing her daughter
<Xanatos`> <Logan> That poor ship.
<DeathStar> 6* walking down the ramp, Shion comes down first, looking the same age, maybe a bit older, but she feels older. She leans on her staff. Yuki runs down it next
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Cooperate you old thing!"
<Kemonohime> * Kasha kicks the ramp when it resists.
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki blinks then runs over
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> Shion!
<kalonZombie> 6*And a very large puppy runs off of it and beelines straight for Wolfe, yapping
<Seraphna> * Cookie follows after Yuki, looking the same or maybe just a smidge older than she was before.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Momma. You're alive
<DeathStar> 6* Shion hugs her
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> What do you know, always in the center of problems.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Told you, Shichan.
<DeathStar> <Wind> *motions mhion and they step aside, to let them have time together*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Well, it is them
<kalonZombie> 6*Jan runs down, trying to follow Junior, who leaps on Wolfe and starts licking him
<DeathStar> 6* Mireille lowers a giant gate down, that is bigger than the Aquarius
<Seraphna> * Cookie waves to those she knows. "Hey, they had kids!"
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon walks down, he's at least a half a decade older than when Miyuki and the other academy people that remained behind saw him. He has a neatly shaved beard and a ponytail.
<DeathStar> 6* Qui walks down with a metal leg, looking darker, none of the cheer before
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki snatches her up and spins her daughter as she hugs her tight
<Chaintan> 6*Wolfe reels and is barreled over
<Seraphna> * Alita steps off, peering about.
<kalonZombie> 6*The puppy keeps licking Wolfe, and Jan smiles, tears in her eyes, helping him back up
<kalonZombie> <Jan> Wolfe... this is Bigby Junior.
<DeathStar> 6* Shion wags her tails, having 8 now
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia stretches as she gets off... the ship. Pervs
<Kemonohime> * Kasha peers at Shion and Miyuki, then Qui, following her path out. She just sits on the edge of the ramp.
<Seraphna> Alita> *now appears in her early 20s, she wraps an arm around her twin*
<DeathStar> 6* Shion then pulls Kasha into the hug, nuzzling them both
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki presses kisses all over Shion's face, tears readily coming down her face
<DeathStar> <Shion> I never thought I'd see you both together at the same time
<DeathStar> 6* Shion looks ready to bawl like she was a kid again
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> my little pumpkin
<Kemonohime> * Kasha deadpans a bit Shion trying to drag her into it.
<kalonZombie> 6*Junior poofs into his child form and hugs Wolfe "Daddy!"
<Seraphna> * Cookie smiles gently. "Family reunions are always nice."
<Chaintan> 6*Wolfe gathers to his feet and holds Junior as he inclines to Ruhi and Riki
<Chaintan> <Wolfe> and this is Ruhi
<DeathStar> <Riki> ... *she tilts her head, then right* He's so small
<DeathStar> 6* Shion wags
<DeathStar> <Shion> Momma
<kalonZombie> <Junior> Hi!
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *steps down the ramp, tossing her long hair back* "I have returned."
<kalonZombie> <Jan> We spent a lot of time in cryo sleep.
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki strokes at Shion's hair
<kalonZombie> <Jan> ...Speaking of which, wow Wolfe... you got even bigger.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki rolls in the grass
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> yes pumpkin?
<Seraphna> * Cookie giggles at Yuki.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan, after seeing everyone reconnecting, turns his back to keep an eye out for any threats.
<DeathStar> <Shion> After we fix everything, I think I'm going to hide in your tail and Momma Kasha's tail for years
<DeathStar> <Shion> Just saying
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae peers at Yuki and rolls around next to her in human child form, mimicing anyway
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Is my sister or Liana not here?"
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> I won't let you escape
<DeathStar> <Cypher> We haven't found either yet, Sasha
<DeathStar> <Cypher> But Selena is back at the base
<Kemonohime> * Kasha takes a seat again and leans on an elbow, studying Miyuki.
<kalonZombie> <Jan> Junior, this is your other momma, Riki.
<kalonZombie> 6*Junior's tail wags as he reaches to be held by Riki
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...take me to her."
<Chaintan> 6*Kasha would feel a dozen or more tugs
<DeathStar> *Shion turns, motioning at the Gate* We think we found a way to fix all this
<Seraphna> Luci> "What's that thing?"
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> you have?
<Kemonohime> * Kasha raises an eyebrow and glances down.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Yes. I'll explain after all the reunions
<Jackieness> <Airym> *steps down the ramp* "It is a C'en gate."
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki blinks at Tenebrae
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae is laughing in delight
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher nods
<Chaintan> 6*Red and white fox and cat kittens peek up and paw at her and Shion
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon leans on his spear, givign a slight smile at the reunions.
<DeathStar> *Isis also tackles Kasha and hugs her, then Shion
<DeathStar> <Isis> My babies
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Ah, I see the oven is still on-- hruagh!
<DeathStar> *Isis mashes their faces into her breasts
<DeathStar> <Isis> I was so worried about you two
<DeathStar> *Shion jerks, flailing*
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> yes but none of them are rabbits
<kalonZombie> <Max> Where's the nerdy rabbit kid?
<Seraphna> Cookie> "He went home."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> What nerdy rabbit kid?
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> Gor went home?
<DeathStar> <Isis> I love you both. *She drags Kasha off*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Gor, he got the chance to head back to the other reality. Had a hard case of missing his wives."
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki nods sadly
<Seraphna> Cookie> "And... kids. He's had a few with all of them right?"
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> the poor boy...
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Crystal Shion there saw him off.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I had to keep him frozen when he went on a wild downswing."
<Kemonohime> * Kasha is dragged off before commenting any further
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: The Base
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae wiggles her fingers at Yuki, waiting for more antics to mimic
<DeathStar> 6* While Isis has Kasha in the other room, Shion peers around the base. Selena sits at a table, eating quietly, not yet noticing Sasha. Wind and Mhion peer at Cheryl, talking quietly, while Yuki and the others prepare to get ready for the Gate talk. Yuki playing with Tenebrae
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga studies all the new people curiously, having heard about them on the datapad
<DeathStar> <Riki> *spins Junior around*
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Guess it went okay." She sighs in relief.
<DeathStar> <Shade> Seems so
<kalonZombie> 6*Junior "wheeee"s
<Seraphna> * Nell moves over to Selena and takes her hands. "Up."
<Chaintan> 6*The kittens look for anyone to play with them, while Miyuki brushes and cuts Shion's hair
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix plays with a few kittens, being extra gentle because they're small.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *steps into the base*
<Chaintan> 6*The kittens purr and climb all over Bix
<Seraphna> * Nell leads Selena over to Sasha.
<DeathStar> 6* Selena peers up at Sasha, blinking at the resemblance
<Seraphna> Nell> "This is your... aunt I think."
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix makes weird sounds every now and then, mostly his best effort at a laugh or a giggle.
<DeathStar> *Shion sits there, peering at her hair being tended to
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Selena."
<DeathStar> <Selena> You look a lot like me. Are you...?
<DeathStar> <Selena> Aunt. you are Sasha?
<kalonZombie> 6*Max elects to play with the kittens since his time playing with Nell was cut short
<kalonZombie> <Max> Today I'm going to teach you all how to use a maul
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae lands beside Selena. "How do you know Aska'yuen!?"
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae gasps. "Aunt..!?"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I am Sasha, Crown Princess of the Hapian Dynasty... and whn last we met, you were but an adventurous toddler."
<DeathStar> *Cypher talks with Wind in a low voice then seems to get the gist, frowning*
<DeathStar> <Selena> I see... Aunt Sasha. The one who vanished 100 years ago.
<Seraphna> * Alita has settled Mykel and two small kids in a room.
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Now she's my wife!
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon eats some of the leftovers, watching everyone. Logan meanwhile stands off to the side, arms crossed.
<DeathStar> 6* Selena studies her, then jerks at Tenebra
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae prances off to play with Yuki more
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *raises a brow*
<DeathStar> 6* Selena shakes her head, running a hand through her short hair, cut that way be Tenebrae as a disguise. She seems to be in her early to mid twenties.
<DeathStar> <Selena> I ... it is a lot to take it. I did not expect to ever see you alive again. Much less looking the same as you were discribed to me
<Seraphna> * Nell looks between Selena and Tenebrae.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> ... *She steps up* If I can have all of your attention
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki smiles as she frees Shion from her attention,
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I have been sleeping for a great deal of time..." 8turns to glance at Cypher*
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> there, it was getting a little unruly
<DeathStar> 6* Shion leans against Miyuki as Isis frees Kasha
<Seraphna> * Luci puts fingers to her mouth and whistles for everyone to pay attention, knowing kids.
<DeathStar> *Selena nods, peering at Cypher distractedly. Seniga looks over, as does Cloe. Yuki sits*
<Seraphna> * Nell looks over while mouthing, "Married?"
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ and Max look over, Junior still playing with his new momma
<Seraphna> * Cookie and Alita look over.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan takes a step forward, looking at Cypher now.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Wind told me why you the Aquarius crew brought that giant Gate
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Apparantly with some modifications, it can be altered enough to be a time gate
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon takes a break from eating to listen.
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Gate!
<DeathStar> <Cypher> The idea being we warn our pasts selves, then aid them in destroying the fleet in the past
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Do over!!
<Seraphna> Luci> "We'd have to change a lot to destroy a fleet?"
<DeathStar> <Cypher> That's the hope. Two Aquarius might be enough to do it
<Xanatos`> <Logan> We cannot be certain that our actions won't cause something worse, correct?
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Right, the paradox effect might also be enough to destroy them too
<Seraphna> Cookie> "We'll have to get this one overhauled."
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> Of course not. But we can't regret what we never try.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I just want everyone to understand that your lives, however they are now, could be even worse.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> But he also tells me that to change and open the Time Gate will come with a cost.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I have spent the entire trip developing technologies to aid us in our cause."
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Big cost!?
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Apparantly
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> It's never a small one
<Seraphna> Nell> "What kind of cost?"
<DeathStar> <Cypher> To get enough temporal energy to work, the first group to go through will suffer. I don't know how, nor does Wind. We might be erased from existance with the paradox. We might bond, if people like us parents go, with our past selves. Or if the ship passes, it might be destroyed. According to Wind, the more unique those who volunteer to go first, the more stable the Gate will be for those who go later
<DeathStar> <Cypher> So that's something we have to consider
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> ... Unique? Unique in what way?
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Big: Ultimate Unique!
<Xanatos`> (Bix)
<Seraphna> * Luci rubs her head, looking to Max.
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Oh. So that's what grandmama meant.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> I would say the spirits are unique. The Elites are unique. ... *She eyes the children but refuses to name them*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Of course if a large enough number goes it probably will work too
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> I have to go.
<DeathStar> <Shade> You certainly do not
<Kemonohime> * Vyvy opens her mouth a moment looking abhorrently perplexed.
<Seraphna> Luci> "Should we go first for the kids sakes?" *she asks it outloud*
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Who is more unique than I?
<DeathStar> <Shade> ... tch
<Seraphna> * Nell frowns.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Anyway, it'll take time for us to get the items to reprogram the Gate anyway
<DeathStar> <Cypher> So don't worry about it
<DeathStar> *Cypher moves to the bar*
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> How very lame... I told grandmother I would fight for all sides and make it work... I didn't realize it would be something so... arbitrary. I can't fight this.
<DeathStar> 6* Something in her body language seems to say that she might not be volunteering
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> But I promised her. Mother will return to her.
<kalonZombie> <Max> <So... are we voulenteering?>
<Xanatos`> <Logan> The way this paradox could work...if the children don't go first, I'm not sure they won't be wiped out in a paradox if a parent goes back first.
<DeathStar> <Shion> This seems a bit daunting. I have a past self. So I don't mind going first
<Xanatos`> <Logan> But that is absolutely conjecture.
<Seraphna> Luci> <I'm the shield, I'm kind of used to taking point. But... I think Logan has a point.>
<Xanatos`> <Simon> I'm going. 6* He says simply.
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki looks at her kittens as Wolfe looks to Ruhi and Junior
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Those with their own presence already in the time period we'd be going to are the least effective in creating the effect. You're out, mother.
<DeathStar> <Shion> I don't mind if the me now ceases. There is a Shion back there
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Hold on a second, you can't just go deciding for u--
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> I can, and I will.
<kalonZombie> 6*Junior, blissfully unaware, tugs at Wolfe's shirt "Play?! Play?!:
<Seraphna> * Luci sighs a bit. "We should ask Wind which he thinks is safer, kids or parents going first."
<DeathStar> <Shade> Now you wait young lady. There is a Shade and Vyvy back ther. You heard Cypher. There is a chance we could just be absorbed back into yourselves
<DeathStar> <Shade> There is no chance you will be
<DeathStar> *ourselves
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> But the least chance of stabilizing the gate. And then I have no parents anyway, so why would it matter?
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae narrows her gaze at Shade.
<Seraphna> Luci> "SHade has a point too. We'll still be on the other side. There will be parents either way."
<Seraphna> Luci> "It's the kid's lives that matter here the most."
<Jackieness> <Bella> "This is making my head hurt!"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I agree. *rubs head* We should worry about it later. See who needs to go when the time comes. It might not even matter
<kalonZombie> <Max> You and me both, Bella.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I'll do whatever Cypher, Asarar and Kira do. I'd like to keep the team together.
<Seraphna> * Luci nods.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> We could push non entites through and the Gate might work
<Seraphna> Luci> "Let's put a pin in this."
<DeathStar> <Cypher> I'm not going through
<DeathStar> *She peers at Logan*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> I abandoned Cherie once before.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> I can't do it to agian
<DeathStar> <Cypher> What if we get stuck on the other side?
<Seraphna> Luci> "I think that's the plan either way Cypher, if we change the past, this future won't exist anymore."
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Paradoxes might mean the future exists
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan nods to her, understanding, he muses to himself for a few moments.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> I can't take that chance. One parent should remain behind just in case
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> Quit worrying about it. If you're not talking about creating the gate and stabilizing it, don't worry your head about it.
<Seraphna> Luci> *rubs her head again* "Gonna have to drink on it, I mean, think on it. While drinking.":
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Time: Paradox cause splinter. Potentially: 2 realities.
<kalonZombie> <Max> Drinks sound lovely.
<Kemonohime> <Tenebrae> I'm going to make it. A path to my family's happiness.
<DeathStar> <Shade> Alright. But me and Vyvy will do what we have to do, too.
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> I don't think you realize what that actually is...
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: The Base
<DeathStar> Time: Later
<DeathStar> 6* Selena sits at a table with Sasha
<DeathStar> <Selena> So what was the past like?
<DeathStar> 6* Isis sits with Kasha and Shion. Shion peers at all the cubs
<DeathStar> <Shion> So many cubs
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...an odd question."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Yeah, the term baker's dozen doesn't apply to Miyuki's buns in the oven.
<DeathStar> *Isis pets them. She muses to herself on staying in the future, since if they did go in the past, there is no way the cubs could reintregrate with it*
<Chaintan> 6*The cubs mew cutely pawing at Isis and Kasha
<Kemonohime> * Tenebrae took some time to herself, but has resumed being a ball of energy bugging the spirits and trying to play with fox-Yuki, or otherwise spying on Selena and Seniga.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "The past... it is still very much my yesterday, not a more than century past."
<Kemonohime> * Kasha sits loosely cross-legged, gently running a finger along their heads and backs, sometimes using her chi to feel warm.
<DeathStar> <Selena> I guess that is true
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki chases Tenebrae
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I do not know what to make of your present... ... ...do you not know what happened to your mother?"
<DeathStar> <Isis> They like you Kasha. *she nuzzles her* You want to make some cubs?
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon kneels by Shade and whispers something to her giving her a nod before standing to walk over to a seat.
<DeathStar> <Selena> Mothers went on some mission when I was young. They wanted to sess out something dangerous. They never returned. I thought they would be with the other parents, but Cheryl said she never encountered them. So another Elite must have taken them prisoner
<DeathStar> <Selena> Or killed them
<DeathStar> <Shade> I remember.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...what of my own aunt, the empress?"
<DeathStar> <Shade> But I do not know if that will stop her
<Xanatos`> <Simon> If re-integration is the cost... 6* He gives a worried look.
<DeathStar> <Selena> I never heard about her. Likely the C'en dealt with her government
<DeathStar> <Shade> It is possible. But if Tenebrae wants to fight before that happens, who I am to stop her
<DeathStar> <Shade> *she sighs, depressed*
<DeathStar> <Shade> At least I know she will be safe in the end
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Hm. True. That would be a nice thing to know.
<DeathStar> *Shion puts the cubs in her tail, rocking them*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...technically I suppose that makes me empress now... not that there is anything to be empress of. Our world... was far from perfect... but we were starting to turn things around for the better."
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan has his legs propped up, smoking a cigar he found somewhere, he makes a face at it every now and then but continue to smoke it anyway.
<Chaintan> 6*they yawn sleepily
<Seraphna> * Luci yawns and sips a drink while using Max as a pillow. <So yeah... worst case if we die going through, Nell still has parents to go to on the other side.>
<kalonZombie> <Max> <Anything for my little girl.>
<Kemonohime> * Vyvy blinks at Shade. "Am I missing something?"
<Seraphna> Luci> <Back when you were a young stud. *overly exaggerated swoon*>
<kalonZombie> <Max> <Now I'm an old stud>
<DeathStar> <Shade> If you recall, if the parents and those who were in the past go first, to power the temporal field, the best case scenario is reintregration
<DeathStar> <Shade> Meaning, your memories and all you know of the future, all you've done, your cuts, bruises, go to your past body
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Yeah?
<DeathStar> <Shade> I was pregnant when the invasion began. Tenebrae, after it is over, will be reintregrated into baby form. So, in a way, it is a blessing and curse. She won't fade away, but she will start life over again. Becoming a new person
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "What has happened is that our chance to build a better world on our own terms was taken from us... everything that we did... swept aside."
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> And you think she knows that?
<DeathStar> <Shade> I don't know
<DeathStar> <Shade> But it is her choice to make
<DeathStar> <Shade> I plan to go back, too. I'll be with our daughter in her last moments.
<DeathStar> <Shade> And reintegrate as well.
<Kemonohime> * Vyvy sighs slowly. "This really sucks..."
<DeathStar> <Shade> I want to know the daughter we had, and the daughter we will have
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Sure, we know 'she' will be fine, but at the same time...
<DeathStar> <Selena> Well, if this crazy plan works
<DeathStar> <Selena> We'll have turned it around again I suppose
<Xanatos`> <Simon> If she was aware in the womb, that could be...bizarre, yes?
<Kemonohime> * Vyvy steals a glance at Tenebrae playing with Yuki.
<DeathStar> <Shade> *she peers at Vyvy* Simon is right. Maybe one day, the memories she has now will emergy again
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> I wonder if it's why she's so ... vivid?
<DeathStar> <Shade> If we all will remember, surely she will too when she reaches a certain age
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki bounces and climbs on Vyvy. Even Seniga plays with her
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...yes...that is the intent."
<DeathStar> <Isis> *to Miyuki* I plan to work out a plan to get the cubs into the past. After the time gate stabilizes and no one has to sacrifice themselves, I'll come through with them and get them to the academy with a note
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> I feel like a failure, but if we don't go then I feel like we'd just be turning our back on her intentions.
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki studied Isis with a measure of concern as she looked at their cubs
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Leave it to me.
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> but Isis..
<DeathStar> *Isis blinks at Kasha*
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> You two are inseperable, right?
<DeathStar> <Isis> Are you sure?
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> I came with my own agenda anyway, the least I can do is make a delivery along the way.
<DeathStar> *Selena smiles at Sasha* You mind telling me some stories of the past?
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix's eyes are a shade of purple and occassionally flicker. He stands off in a corner.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Leave it to the big sister." She eyes Miyuki slowly.
<DeathStar> *Wind and Mhion talk, peering at KAsha, perhaps talking about her situation, nodding conspiratorially
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I suppose I could... do you wish for any in particular?"
<DeathStar> <Selena> Any will do. I'd just like to hear some
<DeathStar> *Seniga pats Bix*
<DeathStar> <Seniga> You doing okay?
<Kemonohime> * Kasha holds up the shard again, then flicks it into the air and swallows it, leaning back on her hands.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...there was the Spire..."
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix blinks a few times, his eyes returning to a normal dim yellow.
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Bix: Great! Seniga: Okay?
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki studies Kasha before she grasps at her face and kisses her deeply
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Just fine. *she pats, smiling, leading Bix to where Riki is making a cake*
<DeathStar> *Isis and Shion swoon*
<Kemonohime> * Kasha blinks a few moments, then calms and closes her eyes.
<kalonZombie> 6*Junior "helps" Riki, covered in flour and dough, smacking a side bit of dough Riki probably gave him
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix seems very interested in 'recipes'.
<DeathStar> -END-
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki holds her twin tight to her,her eyes closed as she strokes at the small of her back, her sides
<DeathStar> We'll end there, with minis open
<DeathStar> Thurs' session focuses on the parents' past
<DeathStar> And how they got caught
<DeathStar> So we're going back in time some
<kalonZombie> Is Gor free for minis in the other side?
<DeathStar> Not yet
