welcome to #suburbansenshi2

[21:15] <Jack> Nothing's about it, perfect.
[21:15] <Morrigan> Hmmm
[21:16] <Jack> Terrible.
[21:16] <Jack> Terrible...
[21:16] <Dead-Eyes> How do you know of this Locrian.
[21:16] * Jack jerks away from him. "Uu-h-uh. I... Huh uh....
[21:17] <Dead-Eyes> Jack.
[21:17] <Jack> I mean...
[21:17] <Jack> No one ever got out.
[21:17] <Jack> but I did.
[21:17] <Jack> I don't know.
[21:18] * Dead-Eyes exhales slowly.
[21:18] <Dead-Eyes> So you are from the other side.
[21:18] <Jack> Came from, not always.
[21:19] <Morrigan> I'll leave you guys to continue with this.
[21:19] <Dead-Eyes> You fell in and escaped?
[21:19] * Dead-Eyes nods
[21:20] *** Morrigan [SexyNaughtyBitchyMe@EnclaveFedCom.Net] has left #suburbansenshi2 ("You all love me; don't be ashamed to admit it.")
[21:20] <Jack> I'd... Stay near the edge. Make sure no one gone any further.
[21:20] <Jack> It was easier to die in that corner of.....
[21:21] <Jack> Than face what's further down.
[21:21] <Jack> It's all one, but.
[21:21] <Jack> Moves.
[21:21] <Jack> HOWLS
[21:22] * Dead-Eyes nods
[21:22] * Something starts to glow above Chateaux's head - a point of lurid, emerald light that flickers and pulses.
[21:23] <@Chateaux Concierge> Uhh, guy.
[21:23] * @Chateaux Concierge points up
[21:23] * Dead-Eyes looks at it
[21:23] <Dead-Eyes> Jack. What is that.
[21:23] <Jack> (( A sim's crystal? ))
[21:24] *** LMFAO
[21:24] *** oh god i can't stop.. oh god LOL
[21:24] * A book falls from the light and lands on the ground at her feet with a hollow BANG. Its covers are made of blackened steel and in the middle of its front over is a stylized gothic I in white: the symbol of the Inquisition.
[21:25] * The symbol doesn't have the skull motif in the center. Instead it has an hourglass: the Ordo Chronos.
[21:25] <Dead-Eyes> Never Mind.
[21:25] <Dead-Eyes> I know what it is.
[21:26] * Jack flinches.
[21:26] <Jack> What?
[21:26] <Dead-Eyes> HOTEL. Collect that.
[21:26] * @Chateaux Concierge nods "My name is Chateaux, by the way."
[21:26] <Dead-Eyes> Cute. Secure that.
[21:26] * @Chateaux Concierge secures the book.
[21:27] <Dead-Eyes> It's information that may be useful in the days to vcome.
[21:27] <Dead-Eyes> ^come
[21:27] *** Dead-Eyes has placed Customised Staser in Inventory Slot: 1
[21:29] <Jack> Hey...
[21:29] * The book is the Phane Codex. "Take heed and bear witness to the knowledge that lies within, for these are the findings of Inquisitor Kasugano."
[21:29] <Dead-Eyes> Yes?
[21:29] <Jack> You're not going to... Go there... Right?
[21:29] *** Dead-Eyes has placed Phane Codex in Inventory Slot: 2
[21:30] <Dead-Eyes> Not yet.
[21:30] <Jack> NOT YET!?
[21:30] <Jack> NOT EVER!
[21:30] <Jack> YOU CAN'T GO!
[21:30] <Jack> I WON'T LET YOU!
[21:31] <Jack> I WON'T LET ANYONE!
[21:31] <Dead-Eyes> All right.
[21:31] <Dead-Eyes> I'll listen to you.
[21:31] <Dead-Eyes> After all, you're the expert.
[21:31] <Jack> R-really?
[21:31] <Dead-Eyes> Of course. If you were not, I wouldn't be speaking to you.
[21:32] <Dead-Eyes> You're very important, Jack.
[21:32] * Dead-Eyes taps the two pictures
[21:32] <Jack> Oh. Oh-ohkay. I... am?
[21:32] <Dead-Eyes> These two are... deception.
[21:32] * Jack looks.
[21:32] <Jack> They are?
[21:32] * Jack squints his eyes.
[21:32] <Dead-Eyes> Of course. They reveal only enough about themselves to get what they want.
[21:33] <Jack> Deception... Like. l-... Lies?
[21:33] <Dead-Eyes> I want to find the truth.
[21:33] <Dead-Eyes> Yes.
[21:34] * the entire backyard/gobi desert is ROCKED by an explosion
[21:34] <Jack> I don- AHHH!
[21:34] <@Chateaux Concierge> Oh what the F[BLEEP]K NOW.
[21:34] * @Chateaux Concierge throws up an image on the TV
[21:34] <Dead-Eyes> (For a TARDIS she is quite profane.)
[21:35] * @Chateaux Concierge sends a drone copter out to take a look
[21:35] * the sand slowly settles..revealing a large hole in the center of a sand dune...while several figures are beginning to work with rakes and other instruments..another figure is standing there..then glances up at the copter...
[21:36] * the drone copter SMASHES to the other side of the lobby in a crumbled metal ball
[21:36] <@Chateaux Concierge> ...
[21:36] *** Matsuo Shin [Shin@history.um.u-tokyo.ac.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[21:36] <@spiritflame> konbanwa matsuo shin
[21:36] <@Chateaux Concierge> Oh you d[BLEEP]ks.
[21:36] <Matsuo Shin> you know I really don't like being spied on
[21:36] <Jack> !?!?!?
[21:36] <@Chateaux Concierge> ...Are they your people
[21:36] <Matsuo Shin> especally during a dig
[21:36] * Jack goes to look at what's causing all this.
[21:36] <Matsuo Shin> yes they're MY people
[21:36] <@Chateaux Concierge> Because I was about to start reading hot lead on them.
[21:36] <@Chateaux Concierge> ^raining
[21:36] <Matsuo Shin> we're trying to get down to the proper layer
[21:37] <Matsuo Shin> yes well don't do that
[21:37] * Matsuo Shin wipes the sand off his clothes
[21:37] <Dead-Eyes> The Archaeologist.
[21:37] <Dead-Eyes> Interesting.
[21:37] * Matsuo Shin glances up
[21:38] <Matsuo Shin> ...huh another time lord
[21:38] * Dead-Eyes gets a response from the Matrix about his prior enquiry and downloads the information to a secure server.
[21:38] <Matsuo Shin> something going on?
[21:38] <Dead-Eyes> Indeed.
[21:38] <Dead-Eyes> On both counts.
[21:39] <Dead-Eyes> With Co-Ordinator Actuary on Sabbatical, I am in charge of matters.
[21:39] <Matsuo Shin> could be worse
[21:39] <Dead-Eyes> The Intern is away on business, so I decided to come here and investigate things for myself.
[21:39] <Matsuo Shin> what things
[21:39] * Matsuo Shin adjusts his hat
[21:40] <Dead-Eyes> The sudden porosity of the universe, for one.
[21:40] <Dead-Eyes> Things are suddenly making their way in.
[21:40] * Jack looks between the two, confused.
[21:41] <Dead-Eyes> The Matrix stochastic predictors don't like that. Neither do I.
[21:41] <Matsuo Shin> making their way in?
[21:41] <Matsuo Shin> from another universe?
[21:41] * Dead-Eyes looks back to Jack
[21:41] * Matsuo Shin turns to look back to the backyard door
[21:41] <Matsuo Shin> Дэвид, хүн бүр нь хорин минутын завсарлага өгч байна. Би буцаж болно дараа нь хяналт тавих. Дараа нь хүртэл та нар хариуцсан байна!
[21:41] <Jack> !?
[21:41] <Matsuo Shin> anyway
[21:41] <Dead-Eyes> Jack, in the same nammer you wish no one to enter those crags...
[21:41] <Dead-Eyes> ^manner
[21:42] <Dead-Eyes> I do not wish our universe to be routinely violated by External beings.
[21:42] <Dead-Eyes> And this place seems to be at the center of the mess.
[21:43] <Matsuo Shin> someone want to bring me up to speed?
[21:43] <Dead-Eyes> Irritatingly, that's about as much as we currently have.
[21:43] <Dead-Eyes> Beings of unknown capaicty from undiscovered realms are operating clandestinely in our universe.
[21:44] <Matsuo Shin> well....
[21:44] <Matsuo Shin> do we have a center of breakage?
[21:44] <Dead-Eyes> Due to their.. "unique" natures, we have been caught on the back foot.
[21:44] <@Chateaux Concierge> My danger room.
[21:44] <@Chateaux Concierge> Something broke in from the danger room last night.
[21:44] <Jack> Does that mean me, too....
[21:45] <Matsuo Shin> how dangerious is it there?
[21:45] <Dead-Eyes> It depends. Do you mean us harm?
[21:45] <Jack> NO!
[21:45] <@Chateaux Concierge> I don't know what's left in there.
[21:45] <Dead-Eyes> Then I don't mean you.
[21:45] <Matsuo Shin> ...would you mind if I took a look?
[21:45] <Jack> Oh
[21:45] * Dead-Eyes does not say that with any kidness, just plain matter of factness.
[21:45] <@Chateaux Concierge> Go ahead.
[21:46] * Matsuo Shin nods and heads down to the danger room
[21:48] * Matsuo Shin has moved to: [ Danger Room ]
[21:49] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] looks around the room....
[21:49] * Jack looks at everyone else to see what they do.
[21:50] <Matsuo Shin> [Danger Room] ...ok...
[21:50] * @Chateaux Concierge is watching MAtsuo in the TV
[21:51] <Dead-Eyes> Jack, why don't you watch that screen,. If he finds anything interesting, we might need your input.
[21:51] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] rolls up his left sleeve...putting a piece of leather in his mouth and biting down on it
[21:51] <Jack> E-eh?
[21:51] * Jack looks to the magical image output device.
[21:53] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] pulls out what looks like a porcupine quill...takes a few deep breaths...and pierces his own arm skin...>___<
[21:53] <Dead-Eyes> Now what__ is he doing...
[21:54] * Jack looks very confused.
[21:55] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] tightens his arm...and silently...tries to psychically probe the room for any prescense...
[21:56] * The room is absent of any presence besides your own and the HOTEL's, because the HOTEL is everything you stand on.
[21:56] *** if things get really intense we'll take it to ss3
[21:57] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] pushes his mind further...trying to break through the hotel with his mind....trying to see what's there
[21:58] * Beyond the HOTEL, it's faint, but there, just as is the flow of energy as which nearly every spellcaster draws from.
[21:59] * But this is different. A different energy.
[21:59] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] pushes another needle through his skin...biting hard down on the leather and tries to focus on the faint trace..trying to find any..mind there
[22:01] * Some form of sentience is present.
[22:01] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is away: heading to Karn to consult with the Sisterhood about the parts of reality forbidden to us.
[22:02] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ ..who...are you
[22:05] * This sentient force makes no reply, however, it is very much away of who contacts it.
[22:06] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ Who are you
[22:08] <This> sentient force once again, makes no reply.
[22:08] * This sentient force, once again makes no reply.
[22:09] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] bites down on the leather
[22:09] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ I'm going to try and forceably scan it....any arguements against?
[22:09] <This> (( Are you asking the force? ))
[22:10] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Guard your mind.
[22:10] <@Chateaux Concierge> ♦ Paisley had a dard time with it, be careful.
[22:11] <Matsuo Shin> (( no talking to the others ))
[22:11] * This force seems... eager.
[22:11] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] bites down on the leather..pushing another quill into his arm........................
[22:11] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] PUSHES his mind in
[22:13] * Thoughts of all that has gone wrong in existence flash through the scanner's mind. Every violent death, every event of mass killing, genocide, even recognizable events from this very world appear, and with all this, the screams of all those who perished.
[22:14] <Matsuo Shin> [Danger Room] O_____________________O >__________________________________<
[22:14] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] TIGHTENS HIS ARM...blood trickling down it..........
[22:14] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] is biting down so damn hard on the leather....
[22:14] * These thoughts become stranger and flash by faster, the images endless, and never repeating.
[22:15] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] tries to desperatly scan for an origin image...a beginning
[22:15] * These stronger^
[22:17] * These thoughts expand to the destruction of planets, galaxies, universes. The pressure that would well up into one's mind from seeing this CAN and WILL get to the point of fatality. That head-splitting sensation may not just be your imagination.
[22:19] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] tries.....despertly to hold on.........tries to look...for one more.....image..something...old..oldest he can find...just..one more

[22:21] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] is on the TV screen in the lobby, curled up, bleeding from pierced thornes in his left arm...
[22:21] <These> (( Yes, and the outcome isn't going to be pleasant for you. ))
[22:21] * RLD_Thorn looks around and doesn't notice the t.v. screen right away.
[22:21] <RLD_Thorn> Hello? Is there anyone here?
[22:22] * @Chateaux Concierge and Dead-eyes and jack are watching the TV
[22:22] * These thoughts are only siphoning so much pressure into the scanner's mind that if they don't stop or pass out from pain, something very tragic may happen.
[22:22] <Dead-Eyes> Yes.
[22:22] <@Chateaux Concierge> ♦ Thrash! STOP NOW.
[22:22] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] finally lets go..and collapses backwards
[22:22] * DreamSeer looks at Dead-Eyes.
[22:22] *** Dead-Eyes is




His image Song is: "The Glitch Mob - Seven Nation Army Remix" .
[22:22] <@Chateaux Concierge> ♦ Err MAtsuo
[22:22] <RLD_Thorn> What are you guys...
[22:23] * RLD_Thorn trails off, her eyes going wide as she sees what's on the television screen.
[22:23] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] lays on the floor...taking deep breaths.....
[22:23] * Jack looks at RLD_Thorn.
[22:23] *** RLD_Thorn is a tall American woman with shoulder-length black and red-tinted hair with green eyes. She's wearing a short white jacket with gold buttons, a dark red mid-thigh length dress, black leggings, and dark red sneakers. More information about her is Here.
Her image Song is: "Trap of Love" The Hexgirls FEAT. Crush.
[22:23] <DreamSeer> ............
[22:23] * Matsuo Shin [Danger Room] spits out the leather......
[22:23] <DreamSeer> Um.....
[22:23] * DreamSeer looks to Chateaux
[22:23] <DreamSeer> who is that?
[22:23] * @Chateaux Concierge Transmats him right to the EMH
[22:23] * Matsuo Shin has moved to: [ EMH ]
[22:24] * RLD_Thorn holds her hands to her mouth, horrified at what she saw.
[22:24] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] is taking deep breaths..deep slow breaths
[22:24] <@Chateaux Concierge> Who. Dead-Eyes there? That's Dead-Eyes.
[22:24] <RLD_Thorn> W-what happened to him??
[22:24] * @Chateaux Concierge gets the EMH working oh im
[22:24] <Dead-Eyes> His mind touched something it could not handle, apparently.
[22:24] * Dead-Eyes turns to Jack
[22:25] <Dead-Eyes> This.
[22:25] <DreamSeer> .....Who is Dead-Eyes? >< I'd like a better explanation than that
[22:25] <Dead-Eyes> This is what must be stopped.
[22:25] <@Chateaux Concierge> And I'd like a day off work.
[22:25] <RLD_Thorn> And you..you all were just..sitting and watching like it was some sporting event??
[22:25] <@Chateaux Concierge> Not going to happen.
[22:25] <@Chateaux Concierge> We were keeping an eye on him.
[22:25] <DreamSeer> Chateaux.....if you took a day off work the entire place would fall to ruin
[22:25] <@Chateaux Concierge> That's why he's not dead right now.
[22:26] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] takes several deep breaths....
[22:26] <RLD_Thorn> If it was so dangerous...why didn't you help him?
[22:26] <@Chateaux Concierge> And Melanie, that guy there is Intern's boss.
[22:26] <Dead-Eyes> Not her boss.
[22:26] <Dead-Eyes> Her counterpart. We have the same rank.
[22:26] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] slowly gets up..shaking a bit..but heads downstairs
[22:26] * Matsuo Shin has moved back to the lobby
[22:27] <Matsuo Shin> so....
[22:27] <@Chateaux Concierge> Because, lady, if we could handle that we would have.
[22:27] <Matsuo Shin> ...it's living..that's for sure
[22:27] <@Chateaux Concierge> Goddamit Matsuo did you let him treat you?!
[22:27] <Matsuo Shin> I'm fine
[22:27] * Matsuo Shin shakes head a bit...
[22:27] <Matsuo Shin> just..give me a second
[22:27] * Matsuo Shin pulls the quills from his arm
[22:27] * This strange force isn't alive.
[22:28] <Matsuo Shin> well....not truely alive
[22:28] <Matsuo Shin> but sentient
[22:28] * Matsuo Shin stumbles a bit to the wall
[22:28] <Matsuo Shin> ooow ><
[22:28] <RLD_Thorn> MAtsuo!!
[22:28] * @Chateaux Concierge irately transmats him RIGTH BACK to the EMH
[22:28] * RLD_Thorn rushes over to him, an anxious look on her face.
[22:28] * Matsuo Shin has moved to: [ EMH ]
[22:28] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] ...oh goddammit
[22:28] <RLD_Thorn> Where'd he go?
[22:29] <@Chateaux Concierge> Go keep him in the goddamn infirmary.
[22:29] <@Chateaux Concierge> He's there. Again.
[22:29] <RLD_Thorn> The Infirm..? Got it.
[22:29] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ at least...hear..me out
[22:29] <Dead-Eyes> Something sentient... not alive...
[22:29] * RLD_Thorn quickly heads to it. (People teleporting in and out, it's enough to drive a woman mad.)
[22:29] * RLD_Thorn has moved to: [ EMH ]
[22:29] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Go Ahead.
[22:29] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ I saw...universes..dying
[22:30] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] looks around the infirmary until she spots Matsuo and quickly goes over to him.
[22:30] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] smiles to Thorn, his bleeding arm being treated
[22:30] <DreamSeer> Wait...by Jack....do you mean that little guy that was terrified when he first arrived? The one I helped get settled in on the 15th floor?
[22:30] * DreamSeer frowns
[22:31] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ many of them dying
[22:31] <Jack> Wha?
[22:31] <Dead-Eyes> She means me.
[22:31] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] asks in a small, worried voice, "What were you doing?" as she holds onto his hand on his non-hurting arm.
[22:31] <DreamSeer> oh good.
[22:31] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] trying to help....trying to help them out
[22:31] * DreamSeer sees Jack :D
[22:31] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Show me what you saw.
[22:31] * DreamSeer smiles kindly
[22:32] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] Help who out?
[22:32] * Jack seems a little more comfortable now the seer is here.
[22:32] <DreamSeer> I'm glad you're okay
[22:32] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] the others in the hotel...
[22:32] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] nods slowly..and projects the images...
[22:32] <Jack> Why? Why wouldn't I be?
[22:32] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] frowns.
[22:33] * Dead-Eyes parses them...
[22:33] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] Don't you do enough for them already? Why do you have to put yourself through all this for those people?
[22:33] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] holds onto his hand tightly, trying to stop any of her tears from falling.
[22:33] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] because they're my friends
[22:33] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] ....
[22:33] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] puts a hand on Thorn's cheek
[22:33] <Dead-Eyes> Death... destruction... on a universal scale.
[22:33] * Whoever sees the images of all that was dying will recieve the same pain as Matsuo
[22:33] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] ...but I'll never..ever let myself die...I would never do that to you
[22:34] * Dead-Eyes has excellent mental control and just blocks the pain, letting blood flow from his nose.
[22:34] <Dead-Eyes> ....Interesting.
[22:34] * Dead-Eyes ceases his examination
[22:34] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] But..how can you be so sure?
[22:35] <DreamSeer> Well...I know you were terrified of Locrian and her actions lately haven't been very nice, Jack.
[22:35] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] smiles "...because I'll always come back to you...no matter what"
[22:36] <Dead-Eyes> A sentient, yet not alive amalagamation of the negative happenings in the universe.
[22:36] * Jack suddenly stares at Dead-eyes... He seems different.
[22:36] <Dead-Eyes> A sort of dark universal id.
[22:36] * Dead-Eyes matches his gaze
[22:36] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] ..sorry I upset you, dear

[22:37] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] sobs quietly as she sits beside him.
[22:37] <Dead-Eyes> "Is there something you wish to tell me."
[22:37] * Dead-Eyes holds up his hand to the woman.
[22:37] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] smiles and takes her hand, kissing it
[22:37] * Jack is just STARING at dead-eyes.
[22:37] * Dead-Eyes makes an educated guess.
[22:37] * Jack Actually isn't staring so much at him, as he is at something on him.
[22:38] * Dead-Eyes revises that guess.
[22:38] * Dead-Eyes wipes the blood away from under his nose.
[22:38] * Filibert Wright walks up to the Hotel Desk, to leave a message for a specific person.
[22:38] * Jack 's head jerks to one side, eyes following.

[22:40] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] What were you..fighting?
[22:40] * Jack starts trembling uncontrollably, and everntually forces himself to turn his back on deadeyes
[22:41] <Dead-Eyes> I think you do consume blood, Jack.
[22:41] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] a force..some kind of................shapeless..thing
[22:41] <Dead-Eyes> That's hardly unusual, you know.
[22:41] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] wasn't really alive.....but it could think
[22:41] <Dead-Eyes> Are you ashamed of that?
[22:42] <Jack> ASHAMED OF WHAT!? I DON'T! WAHT?
[22:42] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] thinks this through. (It doesn't sound like it could be an Evil from Gehenna.)
[22:42] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] it was pure malice....pure...destruction
[22:42] <Dead-Eyes> Why are you yelling, Jack.
[22:42] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] Do you think it was..a Demonic force?
[22:42] <Jack> I'M NOT YELLING!
[22:42] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] ..I think it was beyond demonic
[22:42] * Dead-Eyes keeps his voice calm, on a monotone, even keel. Almost a hypnotic keel.
[22:43] <Dead-Eyes> Jack.
[22:43] <Dead-Eyes> Focus, JAck.
[22:43] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] almost like a..shapeless...thing from space
[22:43] * Dead-Eyes pockets the cravat.
[22:43] * DreamSeer frowns
[22:43] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] Space?
[22:43] <Jack> WHAT!?!?!?
[22:43] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] maybe beyond it
[22:43] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] I heard from Freddy that one time him and his gang met up with some space aliens.
[22:44] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] it was like staring at all the evil in the universe at once.....
[22:44] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] Be..yond space? That's a thing?
[22:44] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] oh?
[22:44] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] nods
[22:44] * Dead-Eyes watches him become ever-more agitated. Clearly this person is hiding something significant.
[22:44] <DreamSeer> Jack, you're a bit loud....
[22:44] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] I'm not sure...I'm not really sure
[22:44] <Jack> NOOO-ooooo.... wait.
[22:44] * Dead-Eyes ponders how he wants to proceed with this man.
[22:44] <Jack> ...
[22:44] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] what were these aliens your friends met like?
[22:45] <Dead-Eyes> Jack.
[22:45] * Jack slowly turns his head to look at him over his shoulder.
[22:45] <Dead-Eyes> Is something worrying you? Be honest.
[22:45] <Dead-Eyes> We can't help you if you'r enot honest.
[22:45] * Dead-Eyes taps the pictures of Simon and Locrien.
[22:45] <Jack> My name is called, yes what is it?
[22:46] * Jack cringes.
[22:46] <Dead-Eyes> They deal in lies. Are you like them?
[22:46] <Jack> I don't knoooooooooow....
[22:46] <Dead-Eyes> (Some sort of psychological break?)
[22:46] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] chuckles a little.
[22:46] <Dead-Eyes> Jack... do you ever have times when you cannot remember things?
[22:47] <Dead-Eyes> Do you ever wake up in strange places, not knowing how you get there?
[22:47] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] Apparently, they were from a planet that was 20 light years away from Earth.
[22:47] * Jack narrows his eyes.
[22:47] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] oh that far?? why did they come here?
[22:47] * Dead-Eyes notes the reaction.
[22:47] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] And that they watched 60's American television so the girl, she called herself Crystal, was dressed like a hippie, and she had this golden retriever named Amber.
[22:48] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] laughs a bit "oh wow..interesting choice"
[22:48] * Dead-Eyes has to be very delicate now. One wrong step and he may flee, attack or crawl into himself.
[22:48] * Jack attempts to make speech. "Tss, y-... m-... er..."
[22:49] <Dead-Eyes> (...Yes, Master?)
[22:49] <Dead-Eyes> (you monster...?)
[22:49] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] I know, right?
[22:49] <Dead-Eyes> Tell me about the Monsters, Jack.
[22:49] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] Honestly, I can't even remember what he said their reason for coming here was.
[22:49] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] smiles.
[22:49] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] well..this planet has it's perks *smiles back*
[22:50] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] tries to sit up, wincing a bit
[22:50] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] helps him sit up.
[22:50] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] Can I do anything else to help you feel better?
[22:50] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] just stay with me....you always make me feel better :)
[22:50] * Jack starts shaking.
[22:51] <Jack> M-...M-....m-M-MONSTERS!?
[22:51] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] smiles and kisses him.
[22:51] <Dead-Eyes> The monsters, Jack.
[22:51] <Jack> WHAT MONSTERS!?
[22:51] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] returns the kiss
[22:51] * Dead-Eyes slightly tenses in anticipation of having to move quickly.
[22:51] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] see? already feeling better heh
[22:51] <Dead-Eyes> The ones who frighten you, Jack.
[22:52] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] How's the arm healing?
[22:52] * Jack , facing deadeyes, leans away, then starts to step back.
[22:52] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Matsuo! I need to you to try to calm this person.
[22:52] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ But he cannot know.
[22:53] * Jack is shaking, twitching, his hands, and various other parts of his body are twitching, he looks like he's about to break.
[22:53] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] it's healing fine
[22:53] * Dead-Eyes sends amental picture of JAck
[22:53] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ alright
[22:53] <Matsuo Shin> [EMH] follow me, thorn
[22:53] <DreamSeer> Jack's terrified of Locrian....or at least the first night he arrived here that seemed to be the case
[22:53] * Dead-Eyes knows for sure this man is hiding something... mental and perhaps even physical the way he's moving
[22:53] <RLD_Thorn> [EMH] I'd follow you to Hell and beyond.
[22:54] <Dead-Eyes> No.. there's more to it.
[22:54] * Matsuo Shin [EMH] gets up carefully..and heads downstairs
[22:54] * RLD_Thorn [EMH] gets to her feet to follow Matsuo.
[22:54] * Matsuo Shin has moved back to the lobby
[22:54] <Dead-Eyes> Give him some space.
[22:54] <Matsuo Shin> you might need to restrain him if he gets out of control, dear...
[22:54] * Matsuo Shin nods
[22:54] * Dead-Eyes steps back a bit.
[22:54] * The corners of his mouth start to twist further back than possible for any human. He starts to... change... slightly.
[22:54] <Dead-Eyes> Jack... it's all right.
[22:54] * DreamSeer offers Jack a glass of fruit punch
[22:54] <Dead-Eyes> Whatever you're holding in... let it out.
[22:54] <DreamSeer> Jack, relax, it's okay....relax....
[22:55] <Dead-Eyes> /anmgst I todl you to give him some space, woman.
[22:55] <Dead-Eyes> - I todl you to give him some space, woman. -
[22:55] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ say when...
[22:55] * DreamSeer glares at Dead-eyes
[22:55] <DreamSeer> He's my friend!
[22:55] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Now would be a good time.
[22:55] <Dead-Eyes> Your friend needs more help than a mere glass of liquid.
[22:55] <DreamSeer> ><
[22:55] <Dead-Eyes> Jack... I see you're in pain.
[22:56] * Matsuo Shin tries projecting his mind onto Jack's...trying to send a calming image or memory into Jack's mind
[22:56] <Dead-Eyes> You're fighting to hard to hold this back.
[22:56] <Dead-Eyes> ^so hard
[22:56] * RLD_Thorn has moved back to the lobby
[22:56] <DreamSeer> You know what, it's the thought that counts, you jackass
[22:56] * Jack hardly notices the seer. He's solely focused on deadeyes. Actually, eveyone in the room seems invisible to him.
[22:56] <Dead-Eyes> You don't have to.
[22:56] <DreamSeer> >\
[22:56] <Dead-Eyes> You can let yourself relax. Be youurself.
[22:56] <Dead-Eyes> This is not a place where you need to hide.
[22:57] * DreamSeer flings the punch at Dead-Eyes, slamming the glass on a table and heading towards the elevator "Forget it. Every time i try to help it goes disasterous for everyone so I'll just go make everyone happy by going back to Paris.
[22:57] *** DreamSeer [dream-seer@PPS.qc.ca] has left #suburbansenshi2 (Dreams lead to terrifying and amazing realities)
[22:58] * Dead-Eyes could care less about the ranting human, it should be plain he's engaging Jack directly.
[22:58] * Dead-Eyes gets punch spilled on him.
[22:58] <RLD_Thorn> (Who the Hell was that? Who are these people that Matsuo is so willing to give his life for?)
[22:58] * teeth start to show this time. A third eye starts to open over his forehead. Still twitching and shaking uncontrollably, he starts backing up until he hits a corner.
[22:58] <Dead-Eyes> Jack...
[22:59] <Dead-Eyes> Reveal yourself, Jack.
[22:59] * Dead-Eyes slowly backs up, so as not to trigger a chase instinct, putting a table between him and Jack. Just in case.
[22:59] * Matsuo Shin tries to hold jack in place with his abilties
[23:00] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Don't restrain his movement... not yet
[23:00] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ I want this transformation to complete.
[23:00] * Matsuo Shin nods..dropping his power
[23:00] * Jack starts to absently remember some things told to him in the past...
[23:01] <Dead-Eyes> Jack, be yourself.
[23:01] * RLD_Thorn stands near Matsuo, letting her hand linger for a moment on his arm.
[23:01] * Dead-Eyes has seen odder things across the universe.
[23:02] * Jack stands frozen, pressed up against the wall. He doesn't know what to do, but he starts to deform slightly more, his arm twisting unnaturally, and talons showing.
[23:02] <Dead-Eyes> That's it.
[23:02] <Dead-Eyes> Isn't it painful to compress yourself into such a tiny form.
[23:03] <Jack> O-...Oh... Oh.... Kay.... I'll.... I'll..........
[23:03] <Dead-Eyes> Allow yourself to be as you naturally are.
[23:03] * Jack closes his eyes.
[23:03] * Dead-Eyes worries about a suddden psychological shift
[23:04] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Chateaux. Force field around me, 2 meters, no visible indication.
[23:04] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Trigger ONLY if he comes towards me suddenly.
[23:04] <@Chateaux Concierge> ♦ Gotcha, Steve Irwin.
[23:04] * Matsuo Shin waits...
[23:04] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ ...Who?
[23:05] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Matsuo, project calm on him to try and put him at ease. Subtly.
[23:05] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ If he shows even the slightest sign of an adverse reaction, cease immediately.
[23:06] <Dead-Eyes> Jack, this is your home. You are alllowed to be as you are in your home.
[23:06] * There's the sudden sound of something ripping as Jack's form rips and is torn into pieces as new shapes begin to form, and grow. Teeth, mouths, talons, eyes, tendrils, they all sprout from the growing mound of grey flesh that now appears in Jack's place. The change is so rapid, that the force and weigh of this creature tears down the wall it was pressed againt.
[23:06] * Matsuo Shin starts to project a calming aura onto Jack...
[23:06] * @Chateaux Concierge hisses in pain but takes the hit.
[23:07] * Dead-Eyes takes in this alien form.
[23:07] <Dead-Eyes> Jack, can you still speak?
[23:08] * @Chateaux Concierge will auto-heal the wall once Jack moves away from the rubble
[23:08] * The mass of tendril continue to grow, depending how high the cieling currently is, his from may push against that as well, a conglomerate of eyes, sharp teeh, talons and the like gushing out as his form may, or may not be forced to come forward.
[23:09] <RLD_Thorn> That...is revolting...
[23:09] * @Chateaux Concierge has a ceiling hiehg tof several hundred feet as there is a false sky present
[23:09] <Matsuo Shin> what..is that thing
[23:09] <Dead-Eyes> No need to be racist.
[23:09] <Dead-Eyes> That's Jack.
[23:09] * A thousand eyes all suddenly dart toward Thorn and Matsuo.
[23:09] * Dead-Eyes calmly steps back to allow it space to expand.
[23:10] <Dead-Eyes> Jack. They're unfamiliar with your body type.
[23:10] <Matsuo Shin> ......
[23:10] <Dead-Eyes> Beings like yourself are not commonly seen on this planet.
[23:10] * All the mouths filled with sharpened teeth start moving, mumbling, gibbering, it's madness!
[23:11] <Dead-Eyes> And humans have a generally low to begin with, so these reactions are to be expected.
[23:11] <Dead-Eyes> Matsuo, can you make contact?
[23:11] <Dead-Eyes> ^low IQ
[23:11] <RLD_Thorn> It's like staring into the soul of Sandalphon...
[23:11] * Matsuo Shin narrows his eyes
[23:11] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ ..I am speaking to who was Jack...what are you...
[23:12] * These voices start to become louder, each mouth speaking of something different.
[23:12] * Dead-Eyes focuses his mind to ignore the aural onslaught
[23:12] * The eyes are split between staring at Thorn, and Matsuo
[23:12] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ what are you
[23:13] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Chateaux, Matsuo, combine your telepathy to see if we cant' make a translation matrix
[23:13] * The eyes narrow as the mass of flesh cringes at the question. The tendril become restless, and start taking aggravated movements.
[23:13] * @Chateaux Concierge tries to use the TARDIS-- her translation circuits-- which usually function as a perfect universal translator-- in conjunction with MAtsuo to translate what Jack is saying
[23:14] <The> (( Laugh, what are you talking about? Go to chatango D:< ))
[23:15] * Matsuo Shin conbines his mind with the TARDIS's matrix to try and translate
[23:15] * Masked Figure is leaning a corner.
[23:16] * RLD_Thorn stays silent, her attention focusing on the creature looming in front of her. The Demonic runes carved into her arms appear and start to glow a dull red as she readies herself to protect herself and her loved one if the need arises.
[23:17] * A bellowing emnates from Jack's form as he begins to retract out onto the street, and away from those in the HOTEL.
[23:17] <Dead-Eyes> Chateaux.
[23:18] * @Chateaux Concierge attempts to expand her external dimensions around it
[23:18] * @Chateaux Concierge also attempts to remove the exits
[23:18] <Dead-Eyes> If you can contain him we will need to move this to a larger playing field.
[23:18] <Aspirant Snark> (( Wow, you guys have REALLY done it now. ))
[23:18] <Dead-Eyes> If he gets into the city it will be disasterous.
[23:19] <RLD_Thorn> (( what? ))
[23:19] <RLD_Thorn> If he's beyond all hope of saving, and a danger to others, why not just kill him and be done with it...
[23:19] <@Chateaux Concierge> ♫ I'm Tryyyying ♫
[23:19] * The sudden change of enviroment causes an adverse reaction. Jack, or what was Jack starts to react more violently. Bile starts to ooze from its mouths as the gibbering turns to screetching, the mass of flesh thrashes against the nearest wall.
[23:20] *** is he in or out?
[23:20] <The> (( out ))
[23:20] <@Chateaux Concierge> You ridiculous ape. Stop talking at once.
[23:20] <Matsuo Shin> because, dear, we might be able to still find out things
[23:20] <Dead-Eyes> ^
[23:21] * Matsuo Shin tries to use telekinisis to hold Jack in place
[23:21] <Dead-Eyes> You are the greater danger at the moment with your unabashed racism
[23:21] <RLD_Thorn> We're putting the city in danger just for information? I'm sure there are other venues to get information from. We should kill it and be done with it. Or let that Alien Police Force deal with it.
[23:21] <@Chateaux Concierge> He got out.
[23:21] <Dead-Eyes> - I can see that. -
[23:21] <Dead-Eyes> Matsuo.
[23:21] <Matsuo Shin> yes?
[23:22] <Dead-Eyes> Link your thoughts to mine. I need to project.
[23:22] * Dead-Eyes closes his eyes and forms a telepathic link
[23:22] * Matsuo Shin nods...and concentrates..doing so
[23:22] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ JACK. Please stop moving.
[23:22] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ Where you are going, people are not used to your form.
[23:23] <Dead-Eyes> ♦ You must return to the HOTEL.
[23:23] * The shoggoth seems to have an intense resistance to such power, and in such a frenzy he's starting to come into from Thorn's words, he strength will be hard to contain. He backs away faster, unintentionally backing into Blackhaus.
[23:23] * Blackhaus exterior takes a bit, but interestingly the exterior remains undamaged.
[23:23] * well you crushed the pink flamingo.
[23:24] * goddamit.
[23:24] <Roman Torchwick> ...What the hell is going on outside.
[23:24] * Roman Torchwick has moved to: [ BlackHaus ]
[23:24] * MiSTRESS_9 has moved to: [ BlacHaus ]
[23:24] <MiSTRESS_9> [BlacHaus] Is that a Shoggoth!?
[23:25] <MiSTRESS_9> [BlacHaus] Where did that come from!?
[23:25] <Lydia D. Darkletter> The Outer realms, usually.
[23:25] * RLD_Thorn lightly touches Matsuo's shoulder and whispers, "Is it gone?"
[23:25] * The shoggoth SCREAMS, each mouth gibbering absolute madness. Those weak of mind WILL be effected.
[23:25] <MiSTRESS_9> [BlacHaus] Not what I meant.
[23:25] <Matsuo Shin> it's outside now..
[23:25] * Roman Torchwick [BlackHaus] hisses, his head feels like it's going to explode.
[23:25] *** CrimsonTamer [BaskervilleLionTamer@abyss.net] has joined #suburbansenshi2

[23:26] * Lydia D. Darkletter calmly knocks out Torchwick, Lyta and Krieger
[23:26] <Matsuo Shin> I don't know....
[23:26] * CrimsonTamer was returning to the Hotel from shopping in Tokyo
[23:26] <CrimsonTamer> ><
[23:26] * Masked Figure looks at BlacHaus.
[23:26] *** BlacHaus is Formerly Nephrite and Naru's home, it is now the transcendentally dimensional HQ of The Black Covenant. There is a Pink Flamingo in the front yard. More information about Hir is Here.
hir image Song is: .
[23:26] <MiSTRESS_9> [BlacHaus] It looks like that thing came from the HOTEL. What are those morons doing.
[23:27] <Lydia D. Darkletter> Perhaps it would respond to one of its kind.
[23:27] <CrimsonTamer> Who in the hell is trying to scare people away again this time?
[23:27] <MiSTRESS_9> [BlacHaus] Yes.
[23:27] <RLD_Thorn> Are you still connected to it?
[23:27] * MiSTRESS_9 [BlacHaus] kneels and offers a prayer to Master Pharoah 95
[23:27] <Matsuo Shin> no..but I'm trying to pull it back here

[23:27] * The shoggoth sees all the new people and darts down the street in one direction.
[23:28] * Masked Figure chases after it.
[23:28] * Pharaoh 95 is a cute, tiny, gelatinous, metroid like eldritch thing with a million eyes and a beak.
[23:28] * Pharaoh 95 phases out of existence
[23:28] * RLD_Thorn nods and tries not to distract Matsuo from his work.
[23:28] * Pharaoh 95 phases back into existence in front of the shoggoth

[23:30] * Pharaoh 95 is a cute, tiny, gelatinous, metroid like eldritch thing with a million eyes and a beak.
[23:30] * Aspirant Snark looks at Pharoah 95.

[23:30] <Aspirant Snark> (( I'm at 2-for-2 ))
[23:30] <RLD_Thorn> (( shame shame ))
[23:31] * Pharaoh 95 is basically a Thing on Par with the Great Old Ones, just in pint-size. Officially the last of the Tairon Overfiend.
[23:31] <The shoggoth> TEKELI-LI! TEKELI-LI!
[23:32] * Pharaoh 95 flails its flagella around excitedly!
[23:32] * Masked Figure just chases after the Shoggroth
[23:33] <Pharaoh 95> ah'kadishtu!
[23:33] * The shoggoth had stopped at the eldritch terror for a moment, but seeing the masked figure, and being impossible to sneak up on, it starts back up on its fleeing rampage.
[23:33] <The shoggoth> TEKELI-LIIIIIIII!
[23:33] * Pharaoh 95 erects a massive barrier to stop the masked figure

[23:39] <The shoggoth> (I'M A TERROR!)
[23:39] * RLD_Thorn apparently has an undamaged mind. At least undamaged from this attack.
[23:39] <Pharaoh 95> (Ludicrous!)
[23:40] <Pharaoh 95> (The minds of Men are small and cannot comprehend majesty such as our own)
[23:40] <Matsuo Shin> ..oh thank the six
[23:41] <The shoggoth> (They are responsible for my existence, yet they wish me banished upon sight!)
[23:41] * Pharaoh 95 subtly begins altering the space around them, directing the Shoggoth away from buildings and people to a more wide open area]]
[23:41] <The shoggoth> (mistake. MISTAKE!)
[23:41] <Pharaoh 95> (They know not what they want. They are children.)
[23:43] * Pharaoh 95 concentrates and forces herself to grow
[23:43] <Pharaoh 95> (I too... was summoned.)
[23:43] * Masked Figure watches this.
[23:43] * The shoggoth never ceases its endless gibbering.
[23:43] <Pharaoh 95> (But fortunately I was summoned by one whose madness allowed him to understand me.)
[23:43] <The shoggoth> (I was never summoned.)
[23:44] * Pharaoh 95 makes an impressed multitonal trill
[23:44] <Pharaoh 95> (You crossed planes of your own accord?)
[23:45] * Pharaoh 95 is leading the Shoggoth via spatial / perceptual trickery to a wide open area where it should ideally feel less confined
[23:45] * The shoggoth doesn't pay much mind to this trickery.
[23:45] * RLD_Thorn slowly comes to, her eyelids fluttering.
[23:46] * Pharaoh 95 also creates an illusion for the minds of men so they will be less likely to percieve either creature
[23:46] <The shoggoth> (Not right! By either you, or the humans!)
[23:46] <Matsuo Shin> Sally?.....
[23:46] <RLD_Thorn> Ma..tsuo...
[23:46] <Pharaoh 95> (Explain?)
[23:46] <The shoggoth> (created. CREATED! CREATED!!!)
[23:47] <Pharaoh 95> (you were created?)
[23:47] <Matsuo Shin> I'm here...
[23:47] <RLD_Thorn> What..happened..?
[23:47] <The shoggoth> (Sickness, egg, sorcery.)
[23:47] <Matsuo Shin> you were right...that thing..it sent out an attack
[23:47] * Pharaoh 95 's million eyes flash red
[23:48] <The shoggoth> (Sorcery brouhgt me too, sickness became me.)
[23:48] <Pharaoh 95> ♦ You are ill?
[23:48] <Pharaoh 95> (^)
[23:48] <RLD_Thorn> I told you it was dangerous..
[23:49] <The shoggoth> (The sickness. Unlike any plague to man.)
[23:49] <Matsuo Shin> I should listen to you more...
[23:49] <RLD_Thorn> It needs to be..killed..
[23:49] * RLD_Thorn feels woozy and tired.
[23:49] <Matsuo Shin> ..you better lay down...
[23:50] <The shoggoth> (IT CONNECTED US ALL)
[23:50] * Matsuo Shin scoops up his wife
[23:50] <RLD_Thorn> Please take me home...
[23:50] <RLD_Thorn> There's more than enough people in the city that can take care of that monstrosity..
[23:50] <Pharaoh 95> (Are you still connected?)
[23:51] <The shoggoth> (BECAME OF IT, I HAVE, BUT NO. I AM MY OWN.)
[23:51] * Dead-Eyes is disgusted by this Thorn woman.
[23:51] <Matsuo Shin> I have to go..my wife takes priority
[23:51] <Matsuo Shin> ♦ I will keep in touch remotly
[23:51] <Dead-Eyes> Yes, take her out of my sight.
[23:52] <Matsuo Shin> that's my wife you're talking about....
[23:52] <Pharaoh 95> (you are my kith. Perhaps I can help you)
[23:52] *** Matsuo Shin [Shin@history.um.u-tokyo.ac.jp] has left #suburbansenshi2 (*heading home*)
[23:52] <Dead-Eyes> What an unfortunate fellow he must me.
[23:52] *** RLD_Thorn [onesixteenthwicca@oakhaven.darkness.net] has left #suburbansenshi2
[23:52] <Dead-Eyes> ^be
[23:52] <The shoggoth> (...I never mean to hurt them.)
[23:53] <Pharaoh 95> (It is not easy to tread lightly in the world of Men. It is why I remain small.)
[23:53] <The shoggoth> (Why I try to be human.)
[23:54] <Pharaoh 95> (You are hurt. This makes it difficult for you.)
[23:54] <Pharaoh 95> (I am a creature of mind. Perhaps I can grant you clarity of thought.)
[23:55] <Masked Figure> ...
[23:55] <The shoggoth> (What do you mean?)
[23:56] * ? watches what's going on, sitting in the tree
[23:56] * The shoggoth can feel the vibrations of movement, where ever ? is, if they're near, he will know, and he will look to see.
[23:57] * Pharaoh 95 sings a complex and timeless song, explaining the Tairon Dreaming, and how they linked their minds to one another to form a vast harmony, and how that harmony brought peace and stability to troubled souls in the collective. She proposes a gentle therapy of the mind, to clear and organize Jack's thoughts and quell the fear that overwhelms him
[23:58] <Pharaoh 95> (I am but one, but perhaps I can heal thee)
[23:58] * The shoggoth directs most its eyes to the other being, this proposal appealing to him.
[23:58] * Pharaoh 95 is easily billions of years old, and the Shoggoth should be able to sense that
[23:59] * Pharaoh 95 floats near it, allowing the Shoggoth to decide for itself
[00:00] * The shoggoth , remarkebly, is actually... rather new. Overall, just within the double digits, however there is something about it that speaks of something much older, but that's faint and hardly noticeable.
[00:00] * Pharaoh 95 chalks that up to the nature of its creation
[00:01] <The shoggoth> (What will it feel like?)
[00:01] <Pharaoh 95> (Like a fog lifting...)
[00:02] <Pharaoh 95> (Like a heavy burden taken from you)
[00:02] <The shoggoth> (That must be nice. Show me.)
[00:02] <Pharaoh 95> (There will be no pain)
[00:03] * Pharaoh 95 slowly circles around the young being, her million eyes cyling through colors
[00:03] * Pharaoh 95 begins to sing a song so ancient it predates time itself, a dreaming, a weaving....
[00:04] * Pharaoh 95 never touches the shoggoth, but uses her trilling to actually create a cocoon of gentle energy that soothes, and comforts, and washes over like a wave
[00:05] * Pharaoh 95 reaches out, and through the power of the sound, takes the disharmony in jack's mind, and lightly, tenderly rearranges it, like moving a sliding puzzle aaround until the jumbled blocks snap into focus
[00:06] * Pharaoh 95 does this in an instant of time, but to jack it would feel like weeks of sheer calm, placid bliss
[00:06] * Pharaoh 95 raises the pitch of the song, incanting a thanks to powers so old their names are unremembered in this universe
[00:07] * Pharaoh 95 then settles into a strange trilling "purr" that winds down the process
[00:08] * Pharaoh 95 then lets silence cover all, slowly rousing jack's mind to emerge from the sea of slumber, gently refreshed
[00:08] * The shoggoth doesn't know what to make of this feeling, but he keeps still and remains calm the entire duration, and starts to see and think in new ways.
[00:08] <Dead-Eyes> (Arise, Arise! Ia! Ia! )
[00:08] <Pharaoh 95> ^
[00:08] <The shoggoth> (( LOL ))
[00:08] * Dead-Eyes wonders why he had that odd thought just now...
[00:09] * Pharaoh 95 also takes the chance to inform Jack about human culture and everything she has learned of them in the past 12 years.
[00:10] * The shoggoth gibbering had ceased since then as he now calmly looks to listen.
[00:10] * Pharaoh 95 paints a picture of a silly but well-meaning race who isn't quite ready to witness the awe and majesty of beings such as themselves. She also provides information on how better to pass for human.
[00:11] * Pharaoh 95 also informs him he must NEVER play Twister with Professor Tomoe if he ever tkes the guise of a human female.
[00:11] * Pharaoh 95 seems to really stress that last point for some reason.
[00:12] <Pharaoh 95> (I will help you in any way I can, my distant cousin from another plane)
[00:12] * The shoggoth wonders why playing twister with this Tomoe guy as a female is a bad idea... He looks to his tendrils.
[00:13] * Pharaoh 95 shows the shoggoth what Tomoe and the female humans do in that circumstance
[00:13] * Pharaoh 95 shudders
[00:14] <Pharaoh 95> (Within the HOTEL your true form will be tolerated by most unrless they are caught unawares. But we are very powerful, and can easily break the humans. It is wiser to remain in Human Form at all times when on this plane)
[00:15] <Pharaoh 95> (It takes time for them to understand even a fraction of what we are.)
[00:15] * The shoggoth suddenly feels very uncomfortable from the images, as though he's witnessing something disturbing.
[00:16] <The shoggoth> (My room is my sanctuary.)
[00:17] <The shoggoth> (I can be myself and no one will know.)
[00:18] <The shoggoth> (( Does this mean Jack will be better at acting normal, rather than cowardly around people? ))
[00:18] <Masked Figure> ...are you two done talking yet. We need to get him back to the hotel before someone finds him and does something stupid
[00:18] *** up to you, but I would say yes, she basically can forx up his psyche up to whatever limit you desire
[00:19] *** ^fix
[00:19] <Pharaoh 95> (If you stay in your True form outside like this, the Humans will be hurt. Also, this form will allow you to be readily accessible and accepted by them, should you choose to wear it)
[00:20] * The shoggoth 's tendril suddenly poises back to strike the masked one, but then settles back down and lies flat.
[00:20] <Pharaoh 95> (Do not worry about them. They cannot hurt such as us.)
[00:20] * Pharaoh 95 considers
[00:21] <Pharaoh 95> (And that... is a problem...)
[00:21] <Pharaoh 95> (The people of the HOTEL are out of their depth)
[00:21] <Pharaoh 95> (They do not understand what walks among them. I cannot communicate with them properly.)
[00:21] <The shoggoth> (Out of their depth?)
[00:21] <Pharaoh 95> (But you are different...)
[00:22] * Masked Figure smirks
[00:22] <Pharaoh 95> (Beings that have recently arrived...)
[00:22] * The shoggoth listens.
[00:22] <Pharaoh 95> (They do not know how to even begin to understand them. Matsuo Shin, for example, nearly died trying to understand one.)
[00:23] <Pharaoh 95> (They are not bad people. They were shocked at seeing your true form, but they meant you no harm).
[00:23] <The shoggoth> (The one demanded my death)
[00:24] <Pharaoh 95> (His wife is... an idiot.)
[00:24] <Pharaoh 95> (She sees only the smallest picture.)
[00:24] <Pharaoh 95> (But not all humans are like that. You will have those Open of mind, and those closed of it.)
[00:25] <Pharaoh 95> (Through careful, gradual exposure, their minds open.)
[00:26] <The shoggoth> (I only knew one.... human... that wasn't affected by my appearance. They were even thrilled.)
[00:27] <Pharaoh 95> (The deception is unfortunately needed with most. Remember, they are a young race.)
[00:28] <Pharaoh 95> (How do you feel?)
[00:28] <The shoggoth> (Better now. Don't know how long this will last.)
[00:29] <Pharaoh 95> (It should remain indefinitely. If you ever feel you are slipping, seek me out.)
[00:30] <Pharaoh 95> (I lurk about the HOTEL. Perhaps I too, will adopt a human form one day. )
[00:30] <The shoggoth> (I will.)
[00:30] <Pharaoh 95> (I would recommend you shift forms.)
[00:31] * Pharaoh 95 sings one last ethereal tune from ages long past and then blips out of sight
[00:31] * Pharaoh 95 is away: Kit Kat bars.
[00:31] * The shoggoth slooooowly starts to compact itself into a smaller form.
[00:31] * Pharaoh 95 also left instructions in Jacks' mind how to talk back home
[00:32] <Pharaoh 95> /PV ^walk
[00:32] * N. Blackhand [BlacHaus] goes over to the HOTEL
[00:32] * N. Blackhand has moved back to the lobby
[00:32] <N. Blackhand> What the f[BLEEP]k ha---------
[00:32] * N. Blackhand sees Dead-Eyes
[00:33] <N. Blackhand> Oh f[BLEEP]k It's Dead-Eyes
[00:33] <Dead-Eyes> ...
[00:33] <Dead-Eyes> Well, well.
[00:33] * Dead-Eyes pulls out his staser.
[00:33] <N. Blackhand> Hold it, Hold it.
[00:33] * @Sailor Quinox changes topic to `3 days left before HOTEL Defenses fail`
[00:34] <N. Blackhand> No need for that.
[00:34] <Dead-Eyes> I disagree, traitor.
[00:34] * Jack has moved back to the lobby
[00:34] <N. Blackhand> Didn't the Co-Ordinator fill you in. *I* wasn't the traitor.
[00:34] * Dead-Eyes puts the staser away.
[00:35] * Jack looks fooks bewtween the two.
[00:35] <Jack> What's going on?
[00:35] <Dead-Eyes> Another time, Nizhaladax.
[00:35] * Masked Figure has moved back to the lobby
[00:35] <Masked Figure> She's not.
[00:35] <N. Blackhand> We used to work together.
[00:35] * N. Blackhand points to Dead-Eyes
[00:35] <Masked Figure> Also, I found your run-away old one.
[00:36] <N. Blackhand> Dead-Eyes there is Xarctrixmenalazixaganonerat of the Celestial Intervention Agency.
[00:36] * Jack looks at Masked. "Who?"
[00:36] <Masked Figure> You.
[00:36] <Jack> ....No you didn't, you just kept chasing me everywhere.
[00:36] <Dead-Eyes> Old Ones. It's the general designation for beings such as yourself that predate most senient life.
[00:37] <Masked Figure> I was chaseing you because I was tryiing to get you to come home.
[00:37] <Masked Figure> And to keep people from hurting you.
[00:37] * N. Blackhand takes this general moment to get the f[BLEEP]k out of dodge while they're talking.
[00:37] * N. Blackhand has moved to: [ BlacHaus ]
[00:37] <Jack> And you didn't.
[00:38] * Jack looks at deadeyes very confused.
[00:38] <Masked Figure> Yes. It turns out it was unessnary.
[00:38] * Dead-Eyes looks Jack over again, noticing the difference in his demeanor.
[00:38] <Dead-Eyes> You look better, Jack.
[00:39] <Jack> No... You just stood there. I came back on my own.
[00:40] * Jack looks to deadeyes. "Thaaaaaaanks?"
[00:40] <Dead-Eyes> Heh.
[00:40] <Dead-Eyes> You're welcome.
[00:40] <Masked Figure> Exactly. I stood there incase someone came along. Also your freind locked me out.
[00:40] * Dead-Eyes doesn't smile. because he never f[BLEEP]king does. unless he's about to torment a motherf[BLEEP]ker
[00:41] <Masked Figure> ...are you incabible of thinking of "What ifs"
[00:41] * Dead-Eyes lets the two of them squabble as he does his paperwork.
[00:41] <Jack> You probably wouldn't have been able to do much... But that's different. You didn't take me back.
[00:43] <Masked Figure> I still found you.
[00:43] <Masked Figure> Which is all I claimed to have done.
[00:43] <Dead-Eyes> I have much work to do, and ironically, little time.
[00:44] <Dead-Eyes> Jack, I look forward to speaking with you further later.
[00:44] * Masked Figure looks at his paperwork out of the corner of their eye... which is hidden behind a mask, so yay sneakyness
[00:45] * Dead-Eyes 's paperwork is similar to waht Intern usually files
[00:46] * Jack just ignores the masked, and looks at the constantly-bored looking one. "Oh... kay?"
[00:46] * Dead-Eyes is just documenting his encounter with jack, the racist thorn and what happened with Mtsuo
[00:47] * Dead-Eyes nods to Jack
[00:47] * Dead-Eyes then heads out.
[00:47] *** Dead-Eyes [002@cia674.panopticon.gallfrey.kasterborous.sen] has left #suburbansenshi2 (...)
[00:48] *** i have a massive headache oso i need to sleep
[00:48] *** gnight all
[00:48] *** The Scion has joined #suburbansenshi2
[00:48] <@spiritflame> konbanwa the scion
[00:49] <Masked Figure> ....
[00:49] <Jack> ...?
[00:50] * The Scion looks around >>
[00:50] * ChevalierdeLeon is sitting in the restaurant alone...thought he saw Jillian here
[00:51] * Jack looks at The Scion.
[00:51] *** The Scion is a young man with very short, platinum blonde hair and red-green eyes. His clothes consist of a dark colored set of trousers, a nice white dress shirt partially unbuttoned, and a tan sweater vest. He has a calm look to him and is very well built.
His image Song is: .
[00:52] <Masked Figure> Are you here to help fix the Hotel Scion?
[00:53] <The Scion> I was contacted for such, yes
[00:55] * Masked Figure points out where the part was stolen from.
[00:55] <Masked Figure> I suggest looking over there.
[00:56] <The Scion> (( i know nothing about what's going on so someone might actually have to help me ))
[00:56] <Masked Figure> The part was unique to the hotel. Thrash did a patch job... but you know full well what his patch jobs are like.
[00:56] * The Scion blinks....and glances at where they're pointing
[00:56] <Masked Figure> It was the main defense ciruct to the hotel.
[00:56] <The Scion> I see
[00:56] * Masked Figure is pointing to a wall. Clearly there's a removeable panel there.
[00:57] * The Scion approaches the panel and opens it
[00:57] <Masked Figure> Somone out to get your eldest sister stole it.
[00:57] <The Scion> My sister? Why would they attack the hotel?
[00:58] * Thrash's mock up is decent..but it obviously won't last very long..it's already starting to fail a bit
[00:58] <Masked Figure> We're not quite sure.
[00:58] * The Scion pulls out a small tool and patches it into the mock up to run a diagnostic
[01:00] * Thrash's mock up is holding together the defenses according to the diagnostic..but the energy field isn't stable....and he's made a few mistakes...
[01:01] * The Scion gets up and goes to his tardis, where he grabs another tool very similar to something you may have seen his mother use before. He patches it into Thrash's work and begins fiddling with the energy fiels
[01:01] <The Scion> fields^
[01:01] * the energy fields are fluxuating....there's a bit too much Alpha..not enough Gamma
[01:02] * The Scion rolls his eyes and makes an attempt to repair this
[01:03] *** Jack [0] has quit IRC (Takes to his room to rest for the night.)
[01:03] * the energy field is stablized.....but one of the wires is starting to spark a bit....Thrash forgot in his haste to insolate it
[01:04] <The Scion> .....
[01:04] <The Scion> (father, you're horrible)
[01:04] * The Scion finds some electrical tape and insulates the wires
[01:07] * the energy is fluxuating again...the device needs some reprogramming done
[01:08] * The Scion reads this on the diagnostics, and sets to writing new parameters in the field algorithms to correct for the new fluxuations
[01:09] <The Scion> (why is it every time i'm called for a job it's silent and sparesely populated?)
[01:10] * the energy finally stablizes....as a temporay defensive matrix loads....
[01:10] * @Sailor Quinox changes topic to `6 days left before HOTEL Defenses fail`
[01:12] <The Scion> (it seems that's the best i can do for now)
[01:13] * The Scion keeps the diagnostics running indefinitely and replaces the panel. His devices will continue running and will be accessible to TIme Lords with similar biodata to operate.
[01:14] * The Scion looks around to see if anyone's present
[01:15] * Masked Figure is still there.
[01:15] * The Scion tidies himself a bit
[01:15] <The Scion> That is all I can do with what I have
[01:16] <Masked Figure> Thank you.
[01:16] <The Scion> Be sure to tell fa-...Thrash...that he needs to have supervision when using this equipment
[01:17] * The Scion makes his way back to his tardis
[01:18] * Masked Figure snickers
[01:18] <Masked Figure> I will take much delight in telling him that.
[01:18] *** The Scion has left #suburbansenshi2
[01:44] *** ChevalierdeLeon [0] has quit IRC (Every time i come here i get stood up)
[09:29] *** Natalia [natalia.amestris@unmei.gov] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[09:29] <@spiritflame> ohayo natalia
[09:30] * Natalia stretches as she steps through a mirror. She looks rather tired, and her tails spasm and twitch as she tries to get the sleepy out of her bones.
[09:31] * Natalia approaches the restaurant and thinks about what she'd like to order for a light breakfast while she waits for Remi
[09:44] * Natalia quickly eats her snack
[09:47] *** Natalia [natalia.amestris@unmei.gov] has left #suburbansenshi2 (back to my baby)
[12:29] *** Ishi Kou [Chowdersgirlfriend@milkyway.kinmoku.uni] has joined #suburbansenshi2

[12:30] <@spiritflame> konnichiwa rld_thorn
[12:30] <RLD_Thorn> I see that.
[12:30] * RLD_Thorn smiles at Ishi.
[12:30] * Ishi Kou has her hands clenched into her fists, staring up at the sky-filled ceiling, passionate fire burning in her eyes.
[12:32] <Ishi Kou> We're their opening act!
[12:32] <Ishi Kou> I can't BELIEVE IT!!
[12:32] <RLD_Thorn> Well pretty sure we'll be headliners for sure.
[12:32] * Ishi Kou staaaares at Thorn.
[12:32] <Ishi Kou> Don't even joke about that yet! Don't jinx it!!
[12:32] * Ishi Kou overdramatically acts as if she's going to have a heart attack.
[12:33] * RLD_Thorn laughs.
[12:34] <RLD_Thorn> I'm glad we got to hang out this morning,
[12:36] <Ishi Kou> You'd think since we're bandmates we'd see each other more often.
[12:36] * Ishi Kou streeeeetches.
[12:36] <RLD_Thorn> Ah, well, you know... life and all that.
[12:36] <Ishi Kou> Hah. Tell me about it.
[12:37] * Ishi Kou flops down on a nearby sofa, propping her feet up on the armrest.
[12:37] <Ishi Kou> So how's married life?
[12:37] * RLD_Thorn sits down on the sofa across from Ishi.
[12:38] <RLD_Thorn> It's been great, actually.
[12:39] <RLD_Thorn> I didn't think I'd ever find someone who'd complete me so perfectly.
[12:39] * there's the sound of another explosion out in the backyard
[12:39] <Ishi Kou> Pfff--what the hell??
[12:40] * RLD_Thorn jumps to her feet, on alert.
[12:40] * Ishi Kou fumbles and falls off the sofa.
[12:40] * Ishi Kou quickly scrambles to her feet.
[12:40] <Ishi Kou> Let's check it out.
[12:40] <RLD_Thorn> Are you sure?
[12:41] <RLD_Thorn> (( one sec work ))
[12:47] <Ishi Kou> What kind of senshi are you? Come on, let's check it out.
[12:47] * RLD_Thorn bites her lip hesitantly but puts on a determined, brave face.
[12:50] * Ishi Kou heads to the back door and opens it. She's blasted with an intense, searing heat from the Gobi desert.
[12:50] <Ishi Kou> What the hell?
[12:50] <RLD_Thorn> What did you do??
[12:50] <Ishi Kou> I didn't do anything!
[12:50] <Ishi Kou> C'mon, let's get going to see what happened.
[12:50] <RLD_Thorn> Out there??
[12:50] * there's a whole bunch of people working around a large hole in the ground...as someone is arguing with another

[12:52] <RLD_Thorn> [Gobi] (Augh, I wish I had a hat right now...)
[12:52] * RLD_Thorn [Gobi] uses her hand to cover the sun from her eyes.
[12:53] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] Zurgaan bidend khadgalakh...
[12:53] * Ishi Kou [Gobi] trots over to the others, Thorn behind her.
[12:53] <Ishi Kou> [Gobi] HEY what's going on over here?
[12:54] * Man notices Ishi and turns quickly "Profyessor ! Bid neg asuudal baina!"
[12:55] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] busad züils deer öör neg asuudal...
[12:55] * RLD_Thorn [Gobi] squints, (Is that...?)
[12:55] * Matsuo Shin [Gobi] wanders over...then blinks
[12:56] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] Sally! Bi end chamaig khüleej baisan yum!
[12:56] * Matsuo Shin [Gobi] coughs
[12:56] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] sorry about that
[12:56] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] so used to directing the others that way heh
[12:58] * RLD_Thorn [Gobi] smiles.
[12:58] <RLD_Thorn> [Gobi] What are you doing out here?
[12:58] <Ishi Kou> [Gobi] Yeah, we heard this explosion. I thought for sure someone had bit the dirt.
[12:59] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] a little bit of digging...
[12:59] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] that explosion wasn't planned...some of the younger helpers got a bit......michivious
[12:59] <Ishi Kou> [Gobi] Ah. Punk kids.
[13:00] * RLD_Thorn [Gobi] raises an eyebrow at Ishi before asking Matsuo, "Was anyone hurt?"
[13:00] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] no..no I don't think so....
[13:01] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] I just hope it didn't wreck any of the artifacts
[13:01] * Matsuo Shin [Gobi] looks to Thorn....then removes his fedora and puts it on her head
[13:03] * RLD_Thorn [Gobi] blushes faintly and mouths a "Thank you."
[13:03] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] sorry about startling you there :)
[13:03] <Ishi Kou> [Gobi] Ugh, you two.
[13:03] <Ishi Kou> [Gobi] Look, it's as hot as a monkey's ass here.
[13:03] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] we're working towards what I think...might be a major find!
[13:03] <Ishi Kou> [Gobi] I'm going to head back and be around some normalcy.
[13:03] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] heh alright...thank you for your concern
[13:04] <Ishi Kou> [Gobi] Thorn, I'll contact you about meeting up with Black Stones for a press meet.
[13:04] <Ishi Kou> [Gobi] See ya, Matsuo.
[13:04] * Ishi Kou [Gobi] waves to the both of them and gets the hell out of there.
[13:04] * Ishi Kou has moved back to the lobby
[13:04] <Ishi Kou> Hoo. that's hot.
[13:04] *** Ishi Kou [Chowdersgirlfriend@milkyway.kinmoku.uni] has left #suburbansenshi2 (Gonna get me some grub.)
[13:04] <RLD_Thorn> [Gobi] A major find, did you say?
[13:05] <RLD_Thorn> [Gobi] (i should've brought my sunscreen. I can't bare to get a tan and ruin my look.)
[13:05] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] well I think so *hands thorn a bottle of water*
[13:06] * RLD_Thorn [Gobi] takes Matsuo and takes a sip of it as she curiously eyes the digsite. She takes off her jacket and wraps it around her waist.
[13:06] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] last time I was here...I found a few pot shards.....Uranian from the Varu dynasty
[13:08] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] I am convinced..this area...back during the silver millenium..may have been a major trade route...
[13:08] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] and that more artifiacts are still here!
[13:10] <RLD_Thorn> [Gobi] That long ago?
[13:10] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] if I can find this.....collect the data....it can help me with my history...
[13:10] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] oh you'd be surprised what survived from back then.....
[13:10] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] problem is...most archologists find them and misidentify them or throw them out..not knowing what they're looking at
[13:13] <RLD_Thorn> [Gobi] You'd think folowing civilizations would've interferred with these artifacts.
[13:14] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] that's the problem.....even if they're here..they might not have originated here
[13:16] * RLD_Thorn [Gobi] nods, interested in what he has to say.
[13:16] <RLD_Thorn> [Gobi] Will you be here much longer?
[13:18] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] only for another few minutes..just checking up...I'm not required here all day :)
[13:19] * RLD_Thorn [Gobi] smiles at him, though she's sweating quite a bit.
[13:21] <Matsuo Shin> [Gobi] why don't you head back tothe lobby..I'll join you shortly ^^
[13:23] <RLD_Thorn> [Gobi] Alright.
[13:23] * RLD_Thorn [Gobi] smiles, lightly touching his hand with hers, and then heads back.
[13:23] * RLD_Thorn has moved back to the lobby
[13:24] * Matsuo Shin [Gobi] smiles and walks over, talking to some others....giving instructions
[13:25] * RLD_Thorn fans herself, feeling relieved at the much cooler air. She gets herself a sweet, iced, green tea.
[13:30] <RLD_Thorn> Mmm delicious.
[13:35] * Matsuo Shin has moved back to the lobby
[13:35] * Matsuo Shin walks in "alright..that's done"
[13:36] <RLD_Thorn> That's good.
[13:36] <RLD_Thorn> Do you know the aftermath of last night?
[13:38] <Matsuo Shin> no I don't
[13:38] * RLD_Thorn nods, and quietly takes another sip of her drink.
[13:39] * RLD_Thorn is away: Pensive.
[13:40] * Matsuo Shin is away 
[14:03] * Dead-Eyes is back
[14:04] * Matsuo Shin is back
[14:04] * Matsuo Shin is drinking some water
[14:04] <Dead-Eyes> Matsuo Shin.
[14:04] <Dead-Eyes> You're an Archeologist, correct.
[14:05] <Matsuo Shin> I am yes
[14:06] <Dead-Eyes> I have perhaps the greatest challengs you will ever face in your entire career, should you choose to accept it.
[14:07] <Matsuo Shin> ...I'm listening
[14:08] <Dead-Eyes> In this universe there are plenums far beyond the reach of mortals. Even Time Lords would have difficulty accessing them.
[14:08] <Dead-Eyes> In this outer reaches, dark powers of madness linger and plot.
[14:08] <Dead-Eyes> ^these
[14:08] <Dead-Eyes> Lately, more of them have begun to appear on our territory.
[14:09] <Dead-Eyes> Obviously, they do not have infinite reach, or our universe would be overrun with them.
[14:09] <Dead-Eyes> Matsuo Shin.
[14:09] * Matsuo Shin nods
[14:09] <Dead-Eyes> I taks you with finding the Infinity Gauntlet.
[14:10] <Dead-Eyes> ^task
[14:10] <Matsuo Shin> ....................
[14:10] <Dead-Eyes> Any resources or manpower you require will be supplied.
[14:10] * Matsuo Shin coughs...and nods
[14:10] <Matsuo Shin> ...I will...do what you ask
[14:11] <Dead-Eyes> And, an additional task.
[14:11] <Dead-Eyes> Identify for me, the most suitable wielder.
[14:11] <Dead-Eyes> Someone uncorruptible.
[14:11] <Dead-Eyes> Someone who is fit to hold the power.
[14:11] <Dead-Eyes> We will drive the demons from our universe for all time.
[14:11] * Matsuo Shin nods
[14:11] <Dead-Eyes> Time is of the essence.
[14:12] * Dead-Eyes gives him a dataslate
[14:12] <Matsuo Shin> I'll start at once.....
[14:12] * Matsuo Shin takes the dataslate
[14:12] <Dead-Eyes> Inventory what yu think you will require. Men, starships, materiel.
[14:12] <Dead-Eyes> If you need experts from other timezones, that is permitted.
[14:13] <Matsuo Shin> understood..
[14:13] <Dead-Eyes> I am called "Dead-Eyes". That slate has my personal transponder code within it. Contact me as required.
[14:13] * Dead-Eyes salutes him in the manner of a CIA Operative, fist on the heart, one on the small of the back. Good luck.
[14:14] * Dead-Eyes is away: The fate of reality literally rests on your shoulders, Matsuo Shin.
[14:14] * Matsuo Shin salutes...
[14:14] <Matsuo Shin> ....
[14:17] <Matsuo Shin> well............
[14:17] <Matsuo Shin> no time like the present...
[14:18] * Dead-Eyes sends him a text "Mind Gem first"
[14:23] * Matsuo Shin gets the text...and begins his work
[14:23] *** Matsuo Shin [Shin@history.um.u-tokyo.ac.jp] has left #suburbansenshi2 (.first....I need a team)

[18:24] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is back
[18:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You ready?
[18:24] <John Constantine> That hurt like a motherf[BLEEP]ker.
[18:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sorry, we didn't have time for Valeria's mollycoddling to maybe snap you out of things.
[18:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You came here to fight the beings from Outside, and guess what. They're here.
[18:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And that accent and dye job was rubbish.
[18:26] <John Constantine> It was a psychotic break, all right.
[18:27] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That turned you into a bad Sting ripoff?
[18:27] <John Constantine> We'll never talk about this again, all right?
[18:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well, you're all Kerricked up. How do you feel?
[18:28] <John Constantine> Please don't put it like that. It's nothing like that.
[18:28] * Xanthh is back
[18:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> As the Americans say, "it's close enough for horseshoes."
[18:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Now I want you to get stuck in and get us some answers.
[18:29] <John Constantine> Great. Not two minutes back and she wants me to fry my brain.
[18:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You're a big boy. You can take it.
[18:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's under the HOTEL somewhere.
[18:29] * John Constantine sighs
[18:29] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte nods to Xanthh
[18:29] * John Constantine gets out a piece of chalk
[18:30] * John Constantine sketches out a circle on the ground, inscribing it with some runes.
[18:30] * John Constantine traces out a pentagram
[18:30] * John Constantine sits cross-legged in the center
[18:30] * John Constantine takes a drag off a herbal cigarette
[18:30] * John Constantine empties his mind.
[18:31] * John Constantine exhales.
[18:31] * Xanthh watches these ruins be drawn out. "Did I... Walk into something I wasn't supposed to?"
[18:31] <John Constantine> I hate this part.
[18:31] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's fine. Just stay away form him in case things go wrong.
[18:31] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^from
[18:31] <Xanthh> <o<
[18:31] * Xanthh takes a few steps back.
[18:32] * John Constantine takes out the Metabelis crystal and focuses on it, using its power to greatly amplify his Mental abilties.
[18:32] * John Constantine reaches out
[18:32] <John Constantine> ♦ I am speaking to the entity that sits in the EArth beneath this place.
[18:32] * John Constantine also says this out loud.
[18:33] * John Constantine makes his presence Known to the thing that lurks.
[18:35] * No response.
[18:36] * John Constantine takes another drag of his cigarette and focuses more deeply on the crystal. He doesn't bother to speak any longer, just probing, making it clear his mental presence is Not Going Anywhere. His bizarre spiritual composition might interest the energy, it does not conform to any physical norms of this pleum at all.
[18:37] * ^plenum
[18:39] * John Constantine is actually in a very disjointed alignment to this dimension
[18:41] * John Constantine starts to explore the mental perimeters of this thing
[18:41] * The energy doesn't seem phased much, for its presence can be felt all around in minschule, unnoticeable trace amounts. Not enough to be the cause of any harm. Underneath, a heavy concentration is indeed present.
[18:42] * John Constantine focuses on this concentration
[18:44] <John Constantine> Show me what you're made of...
[18:45] * The energy dismisses this challenge. The energy is not easily angered.
[18:45] * John Constantine isn't trying to fight it
[18:46] * John Constantine increases his concentration, probing, constantly needling
[18:46] <John Constantine> Show me what you showed MAtsuo Shin...
[18:47] * The energy does a basic read on the man to make itself aware of his desires. This may be a basic read for it, but to others, it's more. The energy is searching for a desire more than wanting to see what was shown to the other man.
[18:47] * John Constantine 's desire is plain. He is going to deal with the ones from Outside.
[18:48] * John Constantine means "deal" in many senses of the word.
[18:49] * The energy speaks so only John can hear.
[18:49] <The energy> - Do you wish for me to show you? -
[18:49] <John Constantine> ♦ Yes.
[18:50] * John Constantine also quiets down so the others can't hear him.
[18:51] <The energy> - Say it. -
[18:52] <John Constantine> - Show me. Everything. -
[18:53] <The energy> - Wish it. -
[18:53] <John Constantine> - I wish for you to show me everything. -
[19:02] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte watches this
[19:02] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte flips on a TV
[19:03] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Chat...
[19:03] * @Chateaux Concierge creates a bridge, using her Telepathich systems with John's body, and beams what it sees to the TV in a straight passthrough
[19:04] <@Chateaux Concierge> ^telepathic
[19:04] * @Chateaux Concierge makes sure that only images are displayed, and takes herself out of the equation
[19:04] <@Chateaux Concierge> Will this work?
[19:04] * The connection has been made. Not only to the man, but to this world. He'll get what he wishes. However, if a direct connection is not made, nothing happens, and nothing is seen. Images start flashing through John's mind. Images, and nothing more. Everything is shown, as far as this energy stretches. Not only are deaths and destruction shown, but so is life and creation, throughout every realm not void of magic.
[19:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> No idea.
[19:05] *** define direct connection
[19:06] <The> (( Direct.... Like.... plugged into the very source. ))
[19:06] *** I mean what is directly connected to what
[19:06] *** john to the source?
[19:06] *** the TV to the source?
[19:06] <Whether> (( The source of energy itself. ))
[19:07] *** so the TV can't be used as a monitor if it's connected to what's in john's head which is connected to the source of the nergy?
[19:07] <Whether> (( You tell me D:< Is the TV making a wish to the energy? ))
[19:07] *** No. Whats in John's head its, but the TV is reading off that
[19:07] *** ^is
[19:08] <Whether> (( There's not garuantee John will remember everything to send it back. ))
[19:08] *** in other words the TV's like tapping the phone line of the mind in John
[19:08] *** okay
[19:09] <Whether> (( Then consider the source a secured connection. ))
[19:09] *** okay.
[19:09] *** okay, one sec phone call
[19:09] <Whether> (( All encrypted and beneath a lead shield and everything. ))
[19:15] * Whether or not the man is capable of seeing everything shown to him, much less remembering it, is up to the mental fortitude of said person. Everything is shown since the point of it's existence, to this very day, and even beyond. From the point the energy had no evil vibe to it, to the time is it what is it. Everything from every place which magic flows.
[19:16] *** alol and now dinner i'll be back
[19:18] * As the price for such a wish is split. One half of the price comes from the energy imbuing itself within the man, the other establishes a point connection to a certain location on the planet. At what what point the energy is halted or stopped, is at which point the images stop, and retract. After all, the energy cannot show you these images if it cannot use itself to do so.
[19:25] <spiritflame> John Constantine rolls 1d20 [ 8 ]
[19:26] * John Constantine 's brain pops and explodes
[19:26] * John Constantine slumps down
[19:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Annnd S[BLEEP]te.
[19:26] <As> (( lmao ))
[19:26] * John Constantine lies there for a bit
[19:26] * John Constantine sits back up
[19:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Anything?
[19:27] <John Constantine> Nope.
[19:27] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well you're useless then!
[19:27] *** so whan you say evnergy fo the man what do you mwan
[19:27] <As> (( wtf? ))
[19:27] *** there's a reason i'm asking which will be made clear shortly
[19:28] *** ugh must type slower
[19:28] *** " As the price for such a wish is split. One half of the price comes from the energy imbuing itself within the man, the other establishes a point connection to a certain location on the planet."
[19:28] <As> (( Oh, you mean what did the energy do when it was reaching into him? ))
[19:28] *** yeah I need to figure out what happened
[19:29] <As> (( Well, you pretty much got what I call Locrian's sickness. The energy has made itself a part of you and will slowly spread. ))
[19:29] *** and now this is why we get to why John was picked XD
[19:30] <As> (( Locrian requires something to keep the disease from spreading, but she can't get rid of it. ))
[19:30] *** John can't change physically, his body takes damage and then reverts to its prior undamaged state
[19:30] *** which is why its brain exploded and then he was back up again
[19:31] *** HOWEVER in fairness
[19:31] <As> (( Oh, wouldn't that just mean his rate of regeneration counters the energy's rate of growth? ))
[19:31] *** he an't remember what happened due to this next bit. So he will gain nothing.
[19:31] *** No because he's not regenerating
[19:31] <As> (( Meh, okay. ))
[19:31] *** he's different. It's not a wolverine-style healing factor
[19:32] *** he literally snaps back to his prior state
[19:32] *** he is... "stuck"
[19:32] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte dons a glove
[19:32] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte SMACKS Constantine's chest
[19:33] * John Constantine spits out a small ball and keels over, inert.
[19:33] <As> (( okay ))
[19:33] *** now here we have an item called a "Mod Soul"
[19:33] <As> (( From Bleach? ))
[19:33] *** It is an artifically created soul which can be implanted into inanimate objects.
[19:33] *** yesssss
[19:34] *** Constantine swapped his soul for the Mod Soul. Hence Paise's comment that he was all "Kericked" up
[19:34] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte observes this Mod Soul.
[19:35] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte wonders if it retains anything, or has been tainted.
[19:35] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is not going to touch it.
[19:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Chateauz, store that thing away in a Time Proof Safe until we can get someone from Soul Society to investigate it.
[19:36] <@Chateaux Concierge> Kay.
[19:36] <@Chateaux Concierge> But it might have nothing, you know.
[19:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We have to try something :P
[19:37] * @Chateaux Concierge picks it up and puts it in a Time Proof Safe.
[19:37] <@Chateaux Concierge> There. Now what.
[19:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We'll get John back to his body.
[19:37] <@Chateaux Concierge> This was a big pile of nothin' :P
[19:38] * @Chateaux Concierge decouples the TV from the Mod Soul
[19:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well if you have a better idea, share with the class.
[19:39] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte produces a small box and lets John's "ghost" leap back into his body
[19:41] <John Constantine> Did it say anything?
[19:41] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> No it got all quiet.
[19:41] <John Constantine> .........
[19:41] <John Constantine> @##@$ing bargain basement Mod Soul copies
[19:42] <@Chateaux Concierge> Why didn't you go in directly?
[19:42] <John Constantine> Because I'm not stupid?
[19:43] <John Constantine> First rule with these things is to understand what they are. What they want.
[19:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And which of those goals have we achieved today?
[19:43] <John Constantine> The goal where I punch you in the head :P
[19:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hah.
[19:45] <John Constantine> Chateaux, what readings did you get?
[19:45] <@Chateaux Concierge> ...Okay #1 you are f[BLEEP]king impossible to scan.
[19:46] <@Chateaux Concierge> Every time I do I get a widly contradictory result.
[19:46] <@Chateaux Concierge> And you should know this.
[19:46] <@Chateaux Concierge> I *think* his breain popped.
[19:46] <@Chateaux Concierge> But again? You're impossible.
[19:46] <@Chateaux Concierge> You're at one the best and the s[BLEEP]ttiest person to use for this.
[19:47] <@Chateaux Concierge> I hate you.
[19:47] * John Constantine throws up his hands
[19:47] <John Constantine> I hate you too, you cranky... house!
[19:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Children.
[19:47] <John Constantine> Damn it.
[19:48] <John Constantine> Well in these cases the traditional solution is to ward the area until we can think of something better.
[19:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> How do you ward something deep in the Earth.
[19:49] <John Constantine> a
[19:49] <John Constantine> A shrine on top of it.
[19:49] <@Chateaux Concierge> I have a shrine on top of me.
[19:49] <@Chateaux Concierge> And I'm on top of it.
[19:50] <John Constantine> No we'd need... to make a direct connection.
[19:50] <John Constantine> Like a stake or a binding rod.
[19:51] <John Constantine> I need to do more research.
[19:51] <John Constantine> These things are usually archetypical.
[19:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It was a formless ooze.
[19:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> When it came out of the scry...
[19:52] * T texts Paise     ◜ 55568 77837 by Galactic Center 4444◞
[19:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> One of the images prior was it asking Locrian to make a wish.
[19:52] <John Constantine> ...Did my Mod Soul make a wish?
[19:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I don't know, it went bloody quiet like a moron.
[19:54] <John Constantine> It probably would have because the goal was to get information.
[19:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well how do we investigate it.
[19:54] <John Constantine> We have to get it to the Beauraeu of R&D at Soul Society.
[19:55] <John Constantine> They can pick it apart and see if it's been corrupted or changed.
[19:55] * John Constantine contacts Sakura
[19:56] * Sakura Xadium Aino contacts Soul Society
[19:59] * Presently a Senkaimon opens in the middle of the lobby, and two Generic Shinigami researchers from the 12th Squad appear, the gate closing behind them.
[19:59] * The Shinigami have a portable lab.
[19:59] * @Chateaux Concierge brings out the mod soul
[20:00] * one of the researchers places it an an analysis chamber
[20:00] * The researchers begin scanning it
[20:01] * they ar elooking for any unusual dmage to the soul structure, energies, enchantments, etc
[20:01] * Tanar'ri operatives within Tokyo start secretly setting up Psionic Resonators. The Resonators are set to frequencies that suppress and resist psychic eminations that would cause fear, anger, violence, nightmares, and insanity within a wide radius.
[20:03] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is away: checking on this text
[20:04] *** Allison Blitz has joined #suburbansenshi2
[20:04] <@spiritflame> konbanwa allison blitz
[20:04] <Allison Blitz> What--
[20:04] * Allison Blitz silences her phone.
[20:05] <Allison Blitz> What's going on?
[20:05] <John Constantine> We're checking something out.
[20:05] * The soul mod would appear to have something non-physical engrained into it.
[20:06] <John Constantine> Trying to see if this Mod Soul was affected by--
[20:06] * the Researchers ZOOM and ENHANCE CSI style to get a look at this non physical element
[20:06] <Allison Blitz> Mod soul?
[20:06] *** Morrigan [SexyNaughtyBitchyMe@EnclaveFedCom.Net] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[20:06] <@spiritflame> konbanwa morrigan
[20:06] <Allison Blitz> I-I could get Langley, he uses a Mod soul sometimes.
[20:07] <Morrigan> Now what's happening here?
[20:07] <John Constantine> An artifical soul.
[20:07] <John Constantine> I set up a Mod Soul to try and gather info about the thing or whatever it is that is under us
[20:08] * The energy seems to have made itself a part of the soul.
[20:08] <Morrigan> I'm having my operatives set up Psionic Resonators all around and UNDER Tokyo.
[20:08] <Allison Blitz> I mean--
[20:08] * Allison Blitz silences her phone again.
[20:09] <Allison Blitz> I meant, what's the topic talking about?
[20:09] <John Constantine> It looks like the reiatsu in the Soul's been infected.
[20:09] * Allison Blitz points to the topic banner.
[20:09] <@Chateaux Concierge> Kaelyn's stalker stole a part of my defense system.
[20:09] <@Chateaux Concierge> We're using a stopgap for now.
[20:09] <Allison Blitz> Is there anything I can do to help?
[20:10] <@Chateaux Concierge> not sure yet. We need to catch that girl
[20:10] <Morrigan> If that f[BLEEP]king thing starts sending out "madness" or any other kind of bozo rays, the Resonators are going to help counteract it. That thing may have been able to soak up energy blasts, but let's see just how it likes having psychic powers used against IT instead.
[20:10] * The Researchers try to see if they can isolate the infection to sample it
[20:11] <Morrigan> Obviously, we need to get Chateaux's doodad back.
[20:11] * To isolate the infection would be to tear apart, and very much most likely kill the soul. But if that's okay, then by all means.
[20:12] <Morrigan> So what's this infection thing going on?
[20:13] * the researchers elect not to kill the soul
[20:13] <John Constantine> I don't know. We're learning right now.
[20:14] * the researchers try a different tack; they have a model of the soul pre-infection. they compare it to a model of the soul post-infection and then try to determine the differences
[20:14] <Morrigan> May I help?
[20:16] * The sould post-infection clearly has a streak going clear through it that has been corrupted. This corruption has engrained itself into the very makeup of the soul. Seperate, but whole, almost like a cancer.
[20:16] <John Constantine> If you like.
[20:16] <John Constantine> So this is like a... soul cancer...
[20:16] * Morrigan tries to access all of the findings obtained so far.
[20:16] * Masked Figure exmines the panel Scio left behind.
[20:17] <Masked Figure> *scion
[20:17] * the Shinigami Researchers share the data
[20:17] <Morrigan> Sounds a lot like Chaos corruption if you ask me. "Soul cancer" describes the effects of serious exposure to the power of Chaos pretty well.
[20:18] * Attempting to remove it, like a real cancer, may make it spread faster.
[20:18] * the researchers compare the data to their extensive database to see if there are any matches
[20:19] <Morrigan> Have you tried exposing it to Divine-aspected energy yet?
[20:19] * the researchers indicate no.
[20:21] * There are no matches.
[20:21] <John Constantine> So it's totally unknown.
[20:21] <Morrigan> So far this...fragment...that came through the other day sounds like it's aspected to something like an inchoate god of primal chaos and destruction.
[20:22] * the researchers take a vial of Holy reiatsu (spirit matter) and place it near this infected mod-soul
[20:22] <Morrigan> The Primordial Annihilator perhaps?
[20:23] <Morrigan> Do we know for sure if Locrian has been exposed to this thing as well?
[20:23] <John Constantine> No idea.
[20:23] <John Constantine> Paisley said it showed up after it appeared to Locrian in their vision.
[20:23] <John Constantine> So it's possible?
[20:24] * the Researchers look up data on "The Primordial Annihilator" and compare it to this infection
[20:24] * There is no only a slight reaction, no bursting in flames, nothing that would indicate anything of a demonic sort.
[20:25] * There is only^
[20:25] <John Constantine> Nothing demonic really...
[20:25] <John Constantine> Non physical...
[20:25] <Morrigan> Try a more specifically aspected reiatsu. One aspected to Good and Creation.
[20:26] * the Researchers root around in their sample cases and produce some, trying that.
[20:26] * Again , there is only a slight reaction, a changing of colors, really.
[20:27] <John Constantine> Well it looks different.
[20:28] <John Constantine> But it doesn't seem to have come away from the Soul at all.
[20:28] * Morrigan uses her OWN hyper-spectral scanners to scan the "corruption", cross-referencing the information with the Tanar'ri Extraplanular database. Subcategories: known deity power aspects and Outer Planes.
[20:28] <John Constantine> Try Samples that are imbued with emotions.
[20:29] <Morrigan> Specifically anger, rage, fear, insanity...anything typically described as "negative".
[20:29] * The Researchers produce more samples and expose it to 1. Love 2. Hope 3. Fear 4. Greed 5. Hate
[20:31] * The samples only seem to change certain properties of the energy, but doesn't rid it from the soul in any way. Also, the scan Morrigan made would come up empty.
[20:33] * the researchers check if any of those property changes make the cancer less agressive
[20:34] <Morrigan> Hmmmm, very interesting.
[20:34] * The lighter, wanted, and appealing properties to make a difference. The energy ranges from no longer causing harm, to even providing a true benefeit to the soul.
[20:35] * Morrigan looks to see what emotions caused true benefit to the soul.
[20:35] * The darker, unwanted, terrible properties only make it worse, and in different ways.
[20:36] <Morrigan> Okay! Now THAT'S some useful data right there!
[20:36] <John Constantine> So emotions are a factor...
[20:36] <John Constantine> Also... it may be that Removal is not an option.
[20:36] <John Constantine> But that doesn't mean it can't be made benign.
[20:36] * Unfortunately the longer these outside sources are exposed to the energy, the more the energy starts to build a resistance and show its original properties.
[20:37] * the researchers take the samples away
[20:37] <Morrigan> If it's a corruption of the soul, then removal might not even be possible.
[20:37] <John Constantine> So it has a resistance... which means it HAS to be removed...
[20:38] <Morrigan> It may be that the "cancer" has to be exposeds to an enormous amount of the energy all at once. Kind of like aggressive chemotherapy.
[20:39] * Morrigan suggests combining aspected reiatsu - Divine power with the more positively reacted emotional energy.
[20:39] * the researchers try that, at a higher level
[20:40] <Morrigan> It may also be that the "cancer" itself is somehow aware. It WAS placed there as a result of interacting with that thing, right?
[20:40] <John Constantine> Probably, yeah.
[20:40] * The energy once again changes colors and properties, then once again starts to build that same resistance. Perhaps outside sources are not the way to make a permanent change.
[20:41] <Masked Figure> Just hire an Auramancer
[20:41] <John Constantine> Hmm.
[20:41] <John Constantine> Rather than affect the Cancer...
[20:41] <John Constantine> Can we boost up the Soul and see if ti can fight it off?
[20:42] * the researchers instill hope and love in the soul itself with a reatsu infusion
[20:43] <Morrigan> That's a good idea, Constantine. Let's try that and see what happens.
[20:43] <Morrigan> An Auramancer might be effective too. Let's see how anything and everything works.
[20:43] <John Constantine> Well they are merged now right?
[20:43] <John Constantine> Do we know any Auramancers?
[20:44] * Close but no cigar. Instilling these things into the soul for the soul to use to fight the cancer would be the soul fighting a part of itself. If the soul was a body, it would be the equivalent to severing an arm, or chopping off a leg, or worse.
[20:45] * Somebody looks at John Constantine.
[20:45] *** John Constantine is



More information about him is Here.
His image Song is: 'Warriors of the World' by Manowar .
[20:45] * Somebody smiles quietly to themself.
[20:45] * John Constantine turns and Looks in Somebody's direction.
[20:46] * John Constantine frowns, sensing he's being observed somehow.
[20:46] * Morrigan looks at Solarchos.
[20:46] *** Solarchos is is a tall, somewhat slender human with blue-green eyes, wearing his usual VanSaar hostile environment suit and a few sheathed weapons. He regards you with a cautious look in his eyes, but not distrust. He seems more at ease now than before. More information about him is Here.
His image Song is: "Warriors of the World" by Manowar. He has been warned 1 times.
[20:46] <Morrigan> (( XD ))
[20:46] *** LOL
[20:47] <John Constantine> Okay... so the soul can't do it itself...
[20:47] <Morrigan> (( No big deal. We can share the song, for they are both the bulwark against the terror! ))
[20:47] <John Constantine> Because it's intertwined with the Cancer...
[20:47] * Somebody is still watching John Constantine, actually.
[20:47] * John Constantine can't afford to ponder the gaze
[20:47] * Somebody hesitates
[20:47] <Morrigan> More like it's integrated with the soul itself.
[20:47] <John Constantine> What are we missing... something dirt simple probably...
[20:48] <John Constantine> External stimulus it has resistance to...
[20:48] *** Filibert Wright has joined #suburbansenshi2
[20:48] <@spiritflame> konbanwa filibert wright
[20:48] <John Constantine> So you're right it would need to be hit massively.
[20:48] * Filibert Wright walks inside the hotel, quietly.
[20:48] * Filibert Wright has moved back to the lobby
[20:48] <John Constantine> ...
[20:48] <John Constantine> this energy...
[20:49] * Filibert Wright looks at John Constantine.
[20:49] *** John Constantine is



More information about him is Here.
His image Song is: 'Warriors of the World' by Manowar .
[20:49] <Morrigan> Run the whole scenario by me again, if you please. How exactly did the "cancer" wind up there in the first place?
[20:49] <John Constantine> Hold it hold it hold it.
[20:49] <John Constantine> Wait.
[20:49] <John Constantine> This energy is a fragment.
[20:49] * Filibert Wright narrows his eyes, but sits down and watches the proceedings to evaluate what is going on. He says nothing.
[20:49] <John Constantine> I wonder if... it's still connected to a Whole that is... pushing back against the relatively small scale changes we're making.
[20:50] <John Constantine> Like dropping food coloring into the sea.
[20:50] <Morrigan> Of course it is. I thought that was obvious.
[20:50] <John Constantine> :/
[20:50] <John Constantine> Well, shucks :P
[20:50] <John Constantine> So.
[20:50] <Morrigan> That amorphous ooze of awfulness that came through the other night was a part of something much, much larger seeking to get out of whatever hellhole it's stuck in.
[20:51] <John Constantine> If it's connected to a greater whole, then how do we even deal with that.
[20:51] <Morrigan> Break the pact.
[20:51] * Filibert Wright looks relieved.
[20:51] <John Constantine> How.
[20:51] <John Constantine> We don't even know what the pact is.
[20:52] * John Constantine has an idea
[20:52] * John Constantine takes a Sailor V plushie
[20:52] * John Constantine pops the mod soul into it
[20:52] * Sailor V Plushie jerks to life
[20:52] <Morrigan> It sounds to me, based upon all of the information Paisley and company obtained the other night that Locrian's got something ELSE inside of her that's given her immense power but at a cost.
[20:53] <John Constantine> Well if we can't understand this we can't help Locrian can we?
[20:53] <Morrigan> Something about "make a wish"? Please correct me if I'm wrong at any point.
[20:53] * Sailor V Plushie blinks
[20:53] <Sailor V Plushie> What's happened to me?
[20:53] <John Constantine> You're infected with a soul-disease.
[20:53] <Morrigan> "Making a wish" can also be the same as, say...making a "contract"!
[20:53] <Sailor V Plushie> D:
[20:53] <Filibert Wright> Locrian needs assistance?
[20:54] * The modsoul will be able to act as itself, but it will be able to clearly tell something's different. The cancer should hurt in some small way, a sickness.
[20:54] <John Constantine> Locrian needs assistance.
[20:54] * Sailor V Plushie staggers, hurting somwhere
[20:54] <Filibert Wright> I am extremely pleased to see you, Mister Constantine. How are you feeling?
[20:54] <Sailor V Plushie> I hurt...
[20:54] <John Constantine> Better now.
[20:55] <John Constantine> Filibert, I don't suppose you know anything about what's going on here.
[20:55] <Filibert Wright> You are certain? I have been direly concerned for your safety. In fact, I had come looking for you tonight.
[20:55] <John Constantine> I'm fine. I'm not important right now.
[20:55] <Morrigan> By accepting the pact, the recipient basically chooses to accept an essense fragment into themselves. They become proxies for a higher dimensional power.
[20:55] <Filibert Wright> I was not looking forward to what would transpire, but it would be well in the end. I am pleased it is unnecessary.
[20:56] *** brb
[20:56] <Filibert Wright> I am pleased, chap, that you have accepted what you must do, and what has been done.
[20:56] * Filibert Wright tips his hat to Morrigan.
[20:57] <Morrigan> And that higher dimensional power, typically a god, can act through them. The essence fragment merges with the person's mind pretty seemlessly because 1.) it was consensual, and 2.) the recipient's mind and soul is often already amenable to the nature of the fragment itself.
[20:57] <Morrigan> Hello, Filibert.
[20:58] <Morrigan> It's not as much domination and control like with demonic possession, but melding and merging. The pact-maker and the essence fragment work in unison towards the same goal.
[20:59] <Filibert Wright> I am afraid I have not heard much of this. I came here in search of Harriet and Michael Sunnyside III. I am happy to have found Master Constantine in the state he is in.
[21:01] *** back
[21:01] <Filibert Wright> I suppose there is trouble here, as well?
[21:01] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is back
[21:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> There is.
[21:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You knoew about the Phane business, right?
[21:02] <Morrigan> Someone who's emotionally weakened and traumatized is easier to brainwash too.
[21:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> How Locrian got a hold of one ina box?
[21:03] <Morrigan> Uggghhhh...Phanes... ~___~;
[21:03] <Filibert Wright> I believe so, as I was the one you asked to inform my master at once. Has something else transpired?
[21:03] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well Vermeliia and Cressida... are rather fond of Locrian.
[21:03] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> They don't want to see her destroyed.
[21:03] * Filibert Wright nods, but does nto say anything.
[21:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> They want to help her turn away from her path of war.
[21:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And honestly, it's probably in your master's best interest if she does as well.
[21:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Now in the course of trying to find out more about her...
[21:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> This ... thing that they're examining showed up
[21:05] <Filibert Wright> Madame, it is everyone's best interest to embrace peace. If you recall, I tried fervently to convince her to accept peace.
[21:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And burrowed into the Earth.
[21:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[21:05] <Morrigan> Cressida and Vermellia are determined to make her accept peace too.
[21:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But she still intends to seek Apotheosis.
[21:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And rewrite the universe to eliminate evil her way.
[21:06] <Morrigan> Not even Apotheosis. ÜBER-Apotheosis.
[21:06] * Filibert Wright sighs.
[21:06] <Morrigan> And that's something that cannot be allowed.
[21:06] <Morrigan> So either we find a way to get through to Locrian...or Exterminatus.
[21:07] * Filibert Wright looks EXTREMELY ANGRY.
[21:07] <Filibert Wright> WHAT did you just say?
[21:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So the thing is...
[21:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Never mind her Filibert.
[21:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Listen to me.
[21:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We want to save her.
[21:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But to do that we need help.
[21:08] * Filibert Wright turns back to Paisley, and tries to remain calm, though his eyes almost flash.
[21:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We think Locrian made a wish on something like this Soul-cancer.
[21:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Do you know anything about it?
[21:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Or someone who might?
[21:09] <Morrigan> Or anything about what it's linked to?
[21:10] <Filibert Wright> Madame, I know nothing, and I feel my master cannot assist you. He is intensely concerned with defending his home against an seeming incursion.
[21:10] <Morrigan> What kind of incursion?
[21:10] <Filibert Wright> He would not tell me.
[21:10] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well he needs to realize that if we can't get a handle on this now there will be a lot more incursions.
[21:10] <Filibert Wright> In the last week, I have never seen him more fearful.
[21:11] <Morrigan> Incursions is putting it mildly.
[21:11] <Filibert Wright> In truth, I had come to attempt to speak with Mister Sunnyside, or if that were impossible, a Lawyer.
[21:11] * John Constantine returns his attention to the Mod Soul, separating it from the plush and putting it back int the Analyzer
[21:11] <Morrigan> If Locrian actually tries to go through with this "Apotheosis" crap she might very well trigger a Godwar.
[21:11] <Filibert Wright> I am so incredibly saddened to hear this. My master feared this would happen. I tried to convince him that he was wrong.
[21:12] <Filibert Wright> ...That peace was possible.
[21:12] <Filibert Wright> Perhaps I can speak to Locrian again.
[21:12] <Filibert Wright> I was able to persuade her last time.
[21:12] <Allison Blitz> I knew we couldn't trust her...
[21:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Listen.
[21:12] <Morrigan> Peace IS possible, Filibert.
[21:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's not just speaking.
[21:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I've seen her past with the others.
[21:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She was a good person who was continually exposed to greater and greater injustice.
[21:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The more she tried to fight it, the more she was beaten down.
[21:13] <Morrigan> And she cracked.
[21:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Until she encountered an undead dragon of some kind...
[21:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She was changed.
[21:14] <Morrigan> A dracolich is what they're called.
[21:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Became more agressive...
[21:14] <Filibert Wright> Did the term "Blackguard" become used?
[21:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I can't recall.
[21:15] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte thinks
[21:15] <Morrigan> Or maybe "Fallen Paladin".
[21:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I don't recall honestly. But the point is she's gotten to the point of wanting to do her own Exterminatus.
[21:16] <Filibert Wright> ....
[21:16] <Filibert Wright> I shall do whatever can be done to avert this.
[21:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Those two girls are the only ones who still believe in her.
[21:16] <Morrigan> Or maybe she became a full-fledged Anti-Paladin. Who knows. The point is that after that meeting something was inside her.
[21:16] <Filibert Wright> If I must enter her palace alone.
[21:16] <Filibert Wright> I do not believe in her.
[21:16] <Filibert Wright> I believe in what is right.
[21:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well you can start by helping us find a way to help clear her of the taint.
[21:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She apparently made a wish on this stuff.
[21:16] <Morrigan> And don't get angry at me for saying it, Filibert.
[21:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Which we know nothing about.
[21:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We need help to help her.
[21:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Just talking will not cut it.
[21:17] * Filibert Wright does not respond to Morrigan's comment. He straightens his tie.
[21:17] <Filibert Wright> Madame Peinforte, talking usually leads to helping, and not talking leads to the opposite.
[21:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She's infected right now.
[21:18] <Morrigan> Paisley's right. Locrian seeks to perform an Exterminatus of her own that's aimed at anything and everything she considers demonic, evil, sinful, and filthy.
[21:18] <Filibert Wright> Is this affliction contagious?
[21:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I don't think so. That's not the POINT.
[21:18] <Morrigan> Doesn't seem to be contagious. But it sure seems to be insidious.
[21:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The point is that getting her to talk off this course means we need to clear her mind.
[21:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Get her closer to the girl she used to be.
[21:19] <Morrigan> It's like...Dark Side stuff.
[21:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Right now her soul is clouded.
[21:19] <Morrigan> Pure negative emotion. Like Sailor Galaxia or the folks from the Dark Moon Clan when the Wise Man started manipulating them.
[21:20] <Filibert Wright> I know little about those events, please accept my apology?
[21:20] <Morrigan> Remove the "soul cancer" and maybe she'll stop acting like she's got severe PTSD.
[21:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Do you know any experts.
[21:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well there's a lot more psychological work that woul dbe needed, Morrigan.
[21:21] <Filibert Wright> I suppose I will have to inform my master after all.
[21:21] <Filibert Wright> However, I am quite aware that Locrian is an incredibly formidable enemy, and very nearly destroyed my master.
[21:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Filibet if you do that his paranoia will make him want to kill her.
[21:22] <Filibert Wright> But I must inform him.
[21:22] <Filibert Wright> If I do not, how much worse shall his reaction be if he finds out on his own, without the proper guiding context you have provided me?
[21:23] <Filibert Wright> I shall need to speak to Harriet Weinberg if I am to take up the mantle of this quest.
[21:23] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte sighs.
[21:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> All right, I'll fetch her.
[21:24] <Morrigan> If the Lich really wants to see peace be maintained around here, there come times when he's going to have to actively participate in its defense.
[21:24] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte opens a portal

[21:24] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is back
[21:24] <Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq.> join
[21:24] <Filibert Wright> Do you feel it is fair to say that, Morrigan?
[21:24] *** Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq. [HSW@weinbergmasonandwrightlawfirm.co.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[21:24] <@spiritflame> konbanwa harriet s. weinberg, esq.
[21:24] <Filibert Wright> Has he not done that numerous times?
[21:25] <Filibert Wright> Ah, Lady Weinberg. I have realized I must speak with you.
[21:25] <Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq.> Hello, Filibert.
[21:25] <Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq.> All right.
[21:25] <Morrigan> So what's so different about THIS new threat?
[21:25] * Morrigan quiets down to let Filibert and Harriet speak.
[21:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The one time his bloody expertise would be useful and he's nowhere to be found.
[21:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That's what I'll remember from this.
[21:26] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte goes back to John
[21:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It looks like it's on us, as usual.
[21:26] <Filibert Wright> I must go into the palace of a deranged Empress, in an unlikely attempt to convince her to embrace peace instead of violence. I am quite aware of the risks. I want you to assist me in creating my Last Will and testament.
[21:27] * Morrigan continues her research on the "soul cancer" as well and starts interviewing the Venus-doll.
[21:28] * Filibert Wright adjusts his tie.
[21:28] * John Constantine took the mod soul out of the doll
[21:29] <Morrigan> Filibert, I'd like a word with you after you're done talking to Harriet. If you please.
[21:29] <Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq.> All right. Shall we go elsewhere and prepare it?
[21:29] * Filibert Wright looks at John Constantine. "I would appreciate that. But one moment--Mister Constantine?"
[21:30] <John Constantine> Yes?
[21:31] <Filibert Wright> I am extremely pleased to see that you seem to have come to terms with the fact that you were forced to do something you found both profoundly immoral and repulsive despite your best efforts to resist. For what it is worth, there are others who understand what that is like. I am very happy that you did not let what you could not help defeat you, and keep you from the virtue you are still are--and were--able to accomplish.
[21:31] <John Constantine> Thank you, Filibert.
[21:31] <John Constantine> That means a lot.
[21:32] * Morrigan examines Constantine's findings.
[21:32] <Filibert Wright> There are people, some far away and some quite near, who care about you very deeply. Do not disappoint them, and do NOT forget them.
[21:32] * John Constantine didn't find anything yet, you go ahead and take over the exmaination for now
[21:32] <John Constantine> Never.
[21:32] <John Constantine> I promise.

[21:33] <Filibert Wright> Excellent. I am pleased to be able to have this conversation in this manner. Please keep those who care about you in mind. They believe in you---let that be your strength.
[21:33] * Lady Matsumi texts Paisley     ◜ HOWDOIUSETHISFIRSTTIME◞
[21:33] <Filibert Wright> Please... Please do not forget what I have said, chap. In all ways but one, you have been a very very lucky man.
[21:34] * Filibert Wright turns back to Harriet. "I am ready now."
[21:34] <John Constantine> I won't, thanks.
[21:34] <John Constantine> You keep to your beliefes Filibert.
[21:34] <John Constantine> The world needs you, as well.
[21:34] * Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq. is away: Come to my office then.
[21:34] * Morrigan attempts to detect whether or not the "soul-cancer" is transmitting or receiving any kind of signal. That includes psychic, magical, multiphasic, and paradimensional.
[21:35] <Morrigan> I can only imagine why he got so upset when I said the dreaded "E" word.
[21:36] * All detections would come back as negative.
[21:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Genocide over one person is pretty much the exact thing Locrian is going for...
[21:36] * Filibert Wright is away 
[21:36] * Filibert Wright pokes his head back into the room.
[21:36] <Filibert Wright> Miss Paisley?
[21:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes?
[21:37] <Filibert Wright> If I might be so bold as to offer my own advice?
[21:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Of course?
[21:37] <Morrigan> No, it's not genocide over one person. It's making a decision between the lives of millions over the lives to trillions.
[21:38] * Filibert Wright tries not to comment about Morrigan, and instead faces Paisley.
[21:38] <Filibert Wright> Madame, I attempt to achieve one goal over all others.
[21:38] *** GreedyTimes [GreedyTimes@mail.asahi-net.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[21:38] <@spiritflame> konbanwa greedytimes
[21:38] <Morrigan> My next big question is what are these incursions the Lich is crapping himself about. Are they coming because of something he did, or because of something someone else is doing?
[21:39] <GreedyTimes> Konbanwa minna-san!
[21:39] <GreedyTimes> I didn't bring anything tonight for snacks unless anybody wants these wasabi peas.
[21:39] <Filibert Wright> I have tried, throughout ever day of my life, to not let a the nebulous siren's call of "the greater good" distract me from doing what I knew was right.
[21:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Good evening. I'm good. *listens to Filibert*
[21:39] * ?? GRABS THE WASABI PEAS!
[21:39] * GreedyTimes pulls a tallish can of wasabi peas from her purse and loses it almost immediately
[21:40] <GreedyTimes> Um.
[21:40] <GreedyTimes> I guess so?
[21:40] * ?? takes a few and hands the can back to her
[21:40] <Filibert Wright> Often, it is easy to focus on gaining good through extreme measures when the measures one relies upon to achieve it fail. I do not believe on giving up on such things in difficult times.
[21:41] * GreedyTimes takes the can back, shakes a few into her hand, and notices the serious looks
[21:41] <Filibert Wright> I recall having disagreements about leniency, but I wish to point something out.
[21:41] <??> yeah this is super duper serious night
[21:41] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte absentlly reaches out for some peas after all
[21:41] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes?
[21:42] <Filibert Wright> If a woman truly wishes to do good, and BELIEVES in good and virtue and kindness and helping others, then they should prefer to help the world WITHOUT hurting others over having to cause harm in order to bring improvements.
[21:42] * ?? grabs a ginger ale and drinks
[21:42] <Filibert Wright> I do not believe that what is called for here is a declaration of war, or ultimatum. I believe that what is called for here is presenting a viable alternative which can be used to make the world better.
[21:42] <GreedyTimes> Probably something I'm not going to be able to do much about then I guess
[21:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She's convinced that rewriting reality is the way to do it.
[21:43] <??> I just got back and I don't even know what's going on
[21:43] <Filibert Wright> Then we must prove that it is not the ONLY way to do it.
[21:43] <??> hey..want to play a video game?
[21:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Good luck offering her an alternative that's as attractive.
[21:43] <Morrigan> Then may I tell you what Solarchos told Cressida and Vermellia the other day, Filibert?
[21:43] <GreedyTimes> Sure, it'll pass the time while serious plot stuff happens
[21:43] <Filibert Wright> I am uncertain I can offer such a thing personally, but surely there is SOME individual here who can.
[21:44] <Filibert Wright> I shall do my best to think on this.
[21:44] * ?? runs over and gets the super famicom started! picks up Donkey Kong Country 2!
[21:44] <Filibert Wright> I shall assist you. You have my word of honor.
[21:44] * Filibert Wright goes with Harriet now.
[21:44] * Filibert Wright is away: You have my word.
[21:44] <Morrigan> Oh well.
[21:47] * Morrigan keeps trying to investigate how the "cancer" is interacting with the rest of the soul.
[21:47] * GreedyTimes sits nearby, gets ready to boogie
[21:48] * ?? hands over the controller!
[21:48] <??> I'll either enjoy this or hate it
[21:48] * The researcher probably isn't going to find anthing out about the cancer with that description. Information isn't going to be spoon-fed to her.
[21:49] * Allison Blitz looks at ??.
[21:49] *** ?? is your average everyday ??

[21:49] * GreedyTimes takes it up
[21:49] <GreedyTimes> Start a new game?
[21:49] * ?? starts a new game
[21:49] <??> I'm going to control Diddy Kong I think
[21:50] <GreedyTimes> That's player one, yes.
[21:50] <??> oh..oh yeah
[21:51] * Allison Blitz looks at GreedyTimes.
[21:51] *** GreedyTimes is an energetic Caucasian human female in her early twenties, shoulder-length strawberry-blonde hair, wearing jeans, sneakers, and a comfy sweater, sporting a button with a seven-pointed star.
Her image Song is: .
[21:51] * Morrigan tries to compile a list of what aspected emotions the "soul cancer" reacted best to (used to become stronger).
[21:52] * ?? waves to Allison!
[21:52] * As mentioned before, they were the negative, undesirable ones.
[21:53] <???> (( LL, go to chatango? ))
[21:54] * Morrigan compiles a list of which positive emotions the "cancer" responded the worst to and had the least resistance to.
[21:56] * ?? starts playing!
[21:56] <Morrigan> Sheesh, if only Yukari wasn't still hibernating...
[21:56] * The energy reacted to all positive aspects in the same manner. Resistances increased at the same rate for all, and each changed the energy's aspect in their own way.
[21:58] * GreedyTimes gears up, bringing her old platforming skills back to memory as the bananas begin to roll in
[21:58] * ?? is biting her lips......getting frustrated
[22:00] <Morrigan> Interesting. If the energy changed it in their own way individually, then collectively in different concentrations might have a different effect.
[22:02] * Morrigan tries an experiment. She places several sources of ONE type of powerful positive emotion near the sample and closely monitors the reaction, then when the "cancer" starts showing signs of resisting, she swaps out the emotion sources with a DIFFERENT emotion and monitors the results for several more cycles.
[22:02] <??> OH COME ON
[22:02] * Topaz [ss3] appears out of a portal.
[22:02] *** Topaz has joined #suburbansenshi2

[22:02] <John Constantine> Trying to see if the resistance diminishes over time as well?
[22:03] <John Constantine> Like if it gets stronger against X but weaker against Y as a result?
[22:03] <GreedyTimes> Oooh.
[22:03] * GreedyTimes takes up the mantle and starts directing
[22:03] <??> grrrr...
[22:03] <Morrigan> More like trying to see just how quickly it reacts to different sources when they're switched out.
[22:03] *** Eliza McIntash has joined #suburbansenshi2

[22:04] * Eliza McIntash has moved back to the lobby
[22:04] <GreedyTimes> These are some floaty controls.
[22:04] <Eliza McIntash> Heh, hey guys.
[22:04] * Eliza McIntash waves hello.
[22:04] * Morrigan waves to Eliza.
[22:04] <John Constantine> Hello Eliza.
[22:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hallo Eliza.
[22:04] <Eliza McIntash> Ooooh, HI Paisley! ^__^
[22:05] <??> ugggh
[22:05] <Morrigan> My hypothesis is that since it's reacting to and resisting to the various positive emotions, switching one out for another and another when it starts actively resisting it might wear it down.
[22:06] <John Constantine> Hmm.
[22:06] < Topaz > [ss3] Pardon me...
[22:06] <John Constantine> The soul and the infection are one. What am I missing here...
[22:06] <John Constantine> Yes?
[22:06] * John Constantine turns to Topaz
[22:06] * Topaz has moved back to the lobby
[22:06] * The energy just does the same it's always been. Changing aspect, then resisting, and at the same rate, despite how many you put in there.
[22:06] < Topaz > May I be of assistance in this matter against Locrian?
[22:06] <Eliza McIntash> Er, what are we talking about... wait...WAIT..
[22:06] * Eliza McIntash suddenly looks around.
[22:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Wel we're trying to save her not kill her right now.
[22:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So help would be needed along those lines.
[22:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> How's the King and Queen doing?
[22:08] <Morrigan> Hmmmm.
[22:08] *** bleach 613 is out
[22:09] < Topaz > Still on their honeymoon... Won''t be back until Saturday.
[22:09] <Eliza McIntash> Huh... I smell. I think I sense...
[22:09] <Eliza McIntash> . Nah. Couldn't be.
[22:09] * Eliza McIntash looks around, curiously. "I wonder."
[22:10] < Topaz > So how do you intend to save her?
[22:10] * Eliza McIntash looks at Topaz.
[22:10] *** Topaz is A man of the Black Moon Clan with shocking bright orange hair and eyes, in a military uniform of pink, blue, yellow and red.
His image Song is: .
[22:10] * Eliza McIntash waves. "Hello! Nice to meet you."
[22:11] * Morrigan tries the same thing again, this time placing the emotion sources close to it at specifically-timed intervals of 5 seconds each time. She does this for ten cycles, but SKIPS a cycle during the 9th turn and closely monitors the "cancer" to see how it reacts to that (a.k.a some Pavlov is being performed).
[22:11] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What is it Eliza?
[22:11] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What do you sense?
[22:11] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We're working on ways to help remove a taint which may have infected her.
[22:12] <??> GAAAAAH crap >< this sucks
[22:13] <Morrigan> First we have to figure out just EXACTLY what this cancerous essense fragment can and can't do.
[22:13] * Topaz looks surprised at this.
[22:13] * The energy does as it has always been done. The fact one cycle has been skipped does NOT provoke a resistance build.
[22:15] * Eliza McIntash looks really really REALLY hungry... or something like it. Her face is red.
[22:15] <Morrigan> Now this is interesting right here.
[22:16] < Topaz > Why this should be an easy matter for you. Can't you have on of your Sailor Senshi friends purify her?
[22:17] * Eliza McIntash 's eyes flash black for a moment.
[22:17] <Morrigan> It didn't go into a reflex response. That could mean it's only reactive and not aware of its surroundings.
[22:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I don't think it would be that wasy.
[22:17] <Eliza McIntash> I should ah... I should go eat some chocolate.
[22:17] <Eliza McIntash> <.<
[22:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Nothing with th--- ELIZA. ♡
[22:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I heard you.

[22:22] <John Constantine> We're trying to help a girl.
[22:22] <Morrigan> The former husband of the girl your master "persuaded" to marry him, Topaz. So yes, he's rather upset right now.
[22:22] <Eliza McIntash> Oh? Heh, you guys are always busy. Matsumi's already had me running all over setting up her concerts! I've never had to drive so much since I delivered for Masaki.
[22:22] <John Constantine> She's made some serious errors in judgement and she's putting her life, and the lives of possibly everyone else at risk.
[22:23] <John Constantine> This... "soul cancer" as we're calling it, for lack of a better name...
[22:23] <Eliza McIntash> !
[22:23] < Topaz > I--
[22:23] <Eliza McIntash> That sounds awful!
[22:23] <John Constantine> might be part of the thing that's got her....

[22:24] <John Constantine> ...that's got her all twisted up.
[22:24] < Topaz > I am at lost for words...
[22:24] <John Constantine> We need to find out how we can help he get better.
[22:24] <Morrigan> Oh, I'm willing to bet it's more than just part of the problem, Constantine. I have a hunch it's right at the core of the problem.
[22:24] <John Constantine> So if you know what this might be, or what it resembles.
[22:25] <John Constantine> Well remember what Paise said. It's part of the issue. The other part is all the bad experiences she had.
[22:25] <John Constantine> That no magic or science is going to fix.

[22:31] * Eliza McIntash licks her lips, nervously.
[22:31] * Someone places a plastic penguin on the BlacHaus lawn...makes it face the flamingo...
[22:32] * Flamingo is unhappy about this turf invasion.
[22:32] * Penguin shall conquer this upstart
[22:32] * Flamingo equips +1 Switchblade of Cutting you like a b[BLEEP]ch.

[22:37] * CrimsonTamer offers Constantine a cookie
[22:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Err, how long ago what.
[22:37] * John Constantine eats, thanks!
[22:38] <GreedyTimes> I heard a lot about those kind of games. The old school still complains about... what's it called. Pixel hunting?
[22:38] <??> I suppose!
[22:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yeah were good luck finding the solution to the puzzle unless you magically gues the right thing.
[22:39] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte texts Constantine     ◜ thank you for attending my wedding. it was much apperciated.◞
[22:39] <John Constantine> How long ago was Locrian infected.
[22:39] < Topaz > There is.... something else I like to speak to about...
[22:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Somewhere in the vicinity of 200 years I think.
[22:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Maybe 180? Not sure.
[22:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She was a normal girl 200 years back.
[22:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well more than 200.
[22:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So... she's been infected for a while.
[22:41] * John Constantine texts back     ◜ yeah sure, no problem◞
[22:41] * John Constantine was out of his mind then, remembers none of it
[22:42] * Eliza McIntash walks back into the Lobby.
[22:42] * Eliza McIntash has moved back to the lobby
[22:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She met a Lich over 200 years ago.
[22:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The Lich didn't seem to be the problem.
[22:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But she ended up in some kind of battle with another creature...
[22:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It slashed her and she becam ill with wounds that wouldn't heal.
[22:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Then a member of a church that had a Dracolich in it closed the wounds.
[22:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> After that she met the Wolf hound shadow puppy thing
[22:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm sorry, what did you need, Topaz?
[22:45] < Topaz > It's...
[22:46] * Eliza McIntash looks distinctly uncomfortable with the subject of Liches.
[22:46] < Topaz > It's about all those alliances, Prince made to "defeat you"...
[22:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes?
[22:47] < Topaz > I have bad feeling that great deal of them may come back to haunt Nemesis.
[22:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Did you guys take up Venus and Crystal Millennium's offer?
[22:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm pretty sure they'd be willing to back you up as an ally now that Quinox is on board.
[22:48] <Morrigan> Perhaps Obsidian should have made those alliances with greater care then, Topaz.
[22:48] < Topaz > That the first thing, the Prince intends to once he gets back.
[22:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The King, you mean.
[22:49] < Topaz > Oh yes, Force of habit.
[22:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well, your court seemed rather... cold to things. Be careful.
[22:51] < Topaz > That what worries me the most...
[22:51] <Morrigan> Later peeps, I have to face the music for accessing a restricted database tonight. ^___^..V
[22:52] * Morrigan leaves all of her findings so far with Constantine and Paisley.
[22:52] *** Morrigan [SexyNaughtyBitchyMe@EnclaveFedCom.Net] has left #suburbansenshi2 ("You all love me; don't be ashamed to admit it.")
[22:52] < Topaz > You see we- I mean the King, made contact with the Black Moon Clan of another universe...
[22:53] * Eliza McIntash has wwandered away.
[22:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ...and?
[22:55] * GreedyTimes has found a good point to save and lets the mystery person get to gaming more if she wants
[22:55] < Topaz > It's One that hasn't fought the Sailor Senshi yet and has just invaded Crystal Tokyo...
[22:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Oh, joy.
[22:56] < Topaz > I don't know what his Majesty told them to get resources from them...
[22:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ....
[22:58] < Topaz > But they are all alive there...
[23:00] < Topaz > I saw Crimson Rubeus' face. And he died in the past when I was just a boy.
[23:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ...
[23:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Game not over, eh.
[23:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Add it to the pile of emergencies...
[23:02] * Topaz looks scared.
[23:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Seriously. Make sure the King gets those treaties done.
[23:03] < Topaz > I think when they find out that King won't be aiding them anymore...
[23:03] * Lady Matsumi texts Topaz     ◜ Mailed you a thank you gift :) I hope you like it :)◞
[23:03] < Topaz > And with the situation with the court...
[23:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Like game of Thrones all up in there.
[23:08] < Topaz > And there's Aoi Satan running around in the dark with all things, we gave him.
[23:09] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte feels a headache coming on
[23:11] < Topaz > And there still worse then that...
[23:12] < Topaz > I don't know want you did to make him so desperate at the time...
[23:14] < Topaz > But from late July to December of last year, he met with a lot of certain kinds of people.
[23:16] * Chiyoko Shinkaze sweep up the lobby
[23:16] < Topaz > Various groups that have grudges against Earth and it's protectors and so on.
[23:18] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> feet up lease
[23:18] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> *please
[23:19] * Topaz floats off the carpet.
[23:20] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> thank you!
[23:21] * GreedyTimes fetches a drink, sips at it while she listens
[23:21] < Topaz > You know he was actually thinking of going to the Daleks at one point... Ivory had to talking him down from it...
[23:22] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Isn't there enough s[BLEEP]te going on...
[23:22] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte leans back on a cough
[23:22] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^couch
[23:22] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm worn out as it is
[23:22] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte texts her mother another photo
[23:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Bloody Locrian, things from beyond.... 1920s demon villains... Black Moons...
[23:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sometimes a girl just wants to read her magazines in peace.
[23:24] <GreedyTimes> It's pretty busy in the plot department lately?
[23:24] < Topaz > I know you have alot of your plate...
[23:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's to where I want to beg rei.bot to break her vow and then have her just break some heads.
[23:25] < Topaz > It's our mess...
[23:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Like in the days I use dto hear about.
[23:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Topaz...
[23:25] < Topaz > But I'm worried about them...
[23:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm sure Sakura of the 31st century will help.
[23:25] < Topaz > The King and the Queen.
[23:25] <Thrash 5> ask the help of your allies
[23:26] *** Thrash 5 has joined #suburbansenshi2
[23:26] <@spiritflame> konbanwa thrash 5
[23:26] * Thrash 5 twirls his cane
[23:26] * Topaz looks at Thrash 5.
[23:26] *** Thrash 5 is your average everyday Thrash 5

[23:26] <Thrash 5> (( I didn't register him? ))
[23:27] * Thrash5 looks in the mirror.
[23:27] *** Thrash5 is your average everyday Thrash5

[23:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> but lately I've been feeling stretched thin.
[23:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If this were an Anime I'd beg for a filler hot springs episode.
[23:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sod an episode. A week.
[23:30] * Thrash 5 looks in the mirror.
[23:30] *** Thrash 5 is time lord and the fifth regeneration of Thrash. He wears 18th century clothes with a green striped coat, plade cravat, black pants, silver bowler hat, orange hair and a monocle.
His image Song is: .
[23:30] <Thrash 5> ah...perfect
[23:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> "Perfect" is not the word I'd use.

[23:32] <Thrash 5> my sense of fashion is perfect
[23:32] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ...
[23:33] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> When you regenerated, was it because you took a hit to the head?
[23:33] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because I think the damage may not have all been healed. :P
[23:33] <Thrash 5> no otherwise I'd be scottish and short
[23:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> hah.
[23:35] * The Magistra looks at her father. "It is rare for you to make an apperance in this time. Why are you here?
[23:35] <Thrash 5> still my dear boy
[23:35] * Thrash 5 adjusts his monocle
[23:35] * Thrash 5 turns to Topaz, pointing his cane at his chest
[23:35] < Topaz > I-is he a Time Lord?
[23:36] <Thrash 5> I am
[23:36] <The Magistra> He's my father.
[23:37] <The Magistra> So yes.
[23:38] < Topaz > Oh you were one too?
[23:38] <Thrash 5> you have allies
[23:38] <Thrash 5> your planet is no longer alone...
[23:38] <Thrash 5> relay on this new friendship
[23:40] < Topaz > I want to... It's just...
[23:40] <Thrash 5> it's just your people don't trust them
[23:40] * Thrash 5 twirrrrrls his cane
[23:40] * Thrash 5 leans on it
[23:40] <Thrash 5> let me tell you something
[23:40] <Thrash 5> never bite the hand of friendship
[23:40] <Thrash 5> and never fight alone if you can
[23:41] < Topaz > His Highness has done some questionable things...
[23:41] <Thrash 5> your people may balk at this idea
[23:41] <Thrash 5> oh we alllll have done that
[23:41] * Thrash 5 gives a slightly..unnerving smile
[23:43] < Topaz > Still they could reject us...
[23:43] <Thrash 5> you are doubting the honor...of Sakura Xadium Aino
[23:44] < Topaz > I don't mean to.
[23:44] <Thrash 5> trust me
[23:44] <Thrash 5> they are not going to abandon you
[23:44] < Topaz > Trust is hard concept for us.
[23:45] <Thrash 5> I know
[23:45] < Topaz > Our culture.
[23:45] <Thrash 5> the first step is always the deepest
[23:45] <Thrash 5> but it also the one which will free you
[23:45] <GreedyTimes> Really trusting anyone is hard for everybody.
[23:46] <GreedyTimes> If it comes easy, you're usually doing it wrong.
[23:46] * GreedyTimes smiles wistfully
[23:47] < Topaz > I want to believe and so does Ivory...
[23:48] < Topaz > But the King's party is still very much a minority.
[23:48] < Topaz > The only reason, he has the throne...
[23:50] < Topaz > Is because everyone else who had a better claim to it is dead.
[23:50] <Thrash 5> then he will have to prove that he can help his people
[23:50] <Thrash 5> make their lives better
[23:53] < Topaz > He does honestly want that if fact that why he wanted to pick up where Diamond left off with changing the past.
[23:53] <Thrash 5> it's not about changing the past, my dear boy
[23:53] < Topaz > Lady Matsumi put an end to that.
[23:53] <Thrash 5> you must make the future
[23:55] < Topaz > And I belive he can, now that the Lady Matsumi can guide him to it.
[23:55] < Topaz > And now that their are those will to aid us things like bright.
[23:55] <Thrash 5> good! excellent!
[23:56] < Topaz > Still...
[23:57] < Topaz > I'm his best friend, Always have been. So I have to worry about his mistakes....
[23:57] <The Magistra> Meh. The past is always changing anyways.

[00:07] < Topaz > Farewell, I shall be back.
[00:08] * Topaz vanishes.
[00:08] *** Topaz has quit IRC
[00:08] * GreedyTimes slouches back into the couch she's sitting in
[00:09] <GreedyTimes> Sometimes I wonder why I still come here.
[00:09] <GreedyTimes> Everything's just so way above me, you know?
[00:09] <Thrash 5> the company?
[00:09] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> would anyone like a snack?
[00:09] * Xanthh strolls back on by.
[00:09] * Xanthh raises his hand, slightly.
[00:10] * @Sailor Quinox changes topic to `5 days left before HOTEL Defenses fail`
[00:10] <GreedyTimes> Maybe, I guess, and no, no thank you.
[00:10] * Xanthh was going to say something, but got distracted by the offer of snakcs.
[00:10] * Chiyoko Shinkaze is away: works on some snacks
[00:11] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte pats GT on the shoulder
[00:11] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Some days I know how you feel.
[00:11] <Xanthh> Anyways, I heard some pretty strange stuff.
[00:12] <John Constantine> Oh?
[00:13] <Xanthh> Yeah, stuff about a strange energy, and scrying Locrian's past.
[00:13] <Xanthh> That's dangerous, you know.
[00:13] <John Constantine> Yeah, Paisley ther did it in the hopes of finding out how to help her.
[00:13] <Xanthh> You shouldn't do that to powerful magic users.
[00:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well of course it's dangerous.
[00:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But nothing will be achieved bny p[BLEEP]yfooting around.
[00:13] <Xanthh> You... Want to help her?
[00:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[00:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Especially after what I've seen of her past.
[00:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The poor girl just...
[00:14] <GreedyTimes> Help her decide not to destroy the universe, right?
[00:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[00:14] <Xanthh> Wow, I haven't heard that by anyone before.
[00:14] <GreedyTimes> That's what she's doing, right?
[00:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She got pulled further and further into despair.
[00:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yeah that's what Vermellia said. She wants to rewrite the universe to crush all evil by becoming the greatest evil.
[00:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So that she can make everything right.
[00:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sounds like Noriko on a normal day.
[00:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But she didn't start off this way...
[00:15] <GreedyTimes> ...like, this is going to sound really bad, but the first thing that came to my mind was how Naruto ended.
[00:15] * Chiyoko Shinkaze is back
[00:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I never paid attention to Naruto.
[00:16] * Chiyoko Shinkaze returns with snacks!
[00:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Whichs is somewhat amazing.
[00:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I know it ended in some kind of love in.
[00:16] <GreedyTimes> Naruto and Sasuke hugged it out and Naruto won is what I heard.
[00:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I get the feeling it won't be that easy.
[00:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Everything to do with her is ridiculously overcomplicated.
[00:17] <GreedyTimes> Sasuke was trying to kill Naruto the entire time too!

[00:18] <John Constantine> Cute kitty.
[00:18] <DreamSeer> Paisley! Paisley~
[00:18] <DreamSeer> Leo gave me a kitten ^_^
[00:18] * John Constantine goes to Xanthh
[00:18] <DreamSeer> isn't he cuuuute?
[00:18] <John Constantine> So you see, this Mod Soul her has some of that energy in it.
[00:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's adorable.
[00:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Of course so was my s[BLEEP]te cat before he got all bloated and sassy
[00:19] * DreamSeer notes the cat looks like a fluffier version of grumpy cat only without the feline dwarfism
[00:19] <DreamSeer> Your cat is just an ass
[00:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> No argument there.
[00:19] * DreamSeer hugs the little kitty :D
[00:20] <Xanthh> Yeah, I know a little about that.
[00:20] * DreamSeer gives paisley a mental image of her (paisley's) cat in a business suit
[00:21] <John Constantine> We're trying to figure out what we're dealing with and... not doing really well, to be honest.
[00:22] <Xanthh> Well if you want to save her, our goals are in line. Maybe I can help?
[00:23] <John Constantine> Yes. I would gladly take that help.
[00:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You want to save her as well?
[00:23] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte pulls up an infodial
[00:24] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte summons forth her memory of the church with the dracolich, namely the symbols asscoiated with it
[00:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Ever seen this before? The church seems to figure heavily in her life.
[00:25] <Xanthh> Yeah, they're some sort of cult.
[00:25] <Xanthh> The dragon, not so much...
[00:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hmm.
[00:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> They healed her when she took damage against some monster and had wounds that would not heal
[00:26] * DreamSeer suddenly notices Constantine
[00:27] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte laughs at the notion of Merdemus in a kitty suit
[00:27] <DreamSeer> Oh hey! You! You're not hopped up on cactus juice anymore :D
[00:27] <DreamSeer> Nice of you to rejoin civilization
[00:27] <John Constantine> No, Paisley knocked some sense into me. Literally.
[00:27] <John Constantine> Thanks. :D
[00:28] <DreamSeer> Leave it to Paisley XD
[00:28] <DreamSeer> You missed our psychic battle
[00:28] <Xanthh> When I came accross them, they seem adament on stressing the fact that Locrian has strayed from their beliefs, and now worships some deranged version of their deity.
[00:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So do you know what this substance is?
[00:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hmm.
[00:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What is their diety?
[00:29] <Xanthh> They tried explaining it to me once, but I didn't quite understand.
[00:29] <Xanthh> Something about a collection of entities that were one.
[00:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ..A gestalt.
[00:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> A group mind.
[00:30] <Xanthh> Taught how to understand pain, and probably even turn it to happiness.
[00:30] * DreamSeer inserts a mental image of Merdemus in an iron "cat" suit into paise's head
[00:31] <DreamSeer> And if you'll excuse me? I have to get this kitten to his new home :D
[00:31] *** DreamSeer [dream-seer@PPS.qc.ca] has left #suburbansenshi2 (Dreams lead to terrifying and amazing realities)
[00:31] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Oh god...
[00:31] <Xanthh> What?
[00:31] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So she's become so used to the pain it's like a normal state for her...
[00:32] * John Constantine shows Xanthh the Mod Soul. "We think this has infected her. Or she's made a deal with it."
[00:32] <Xanthh> ...
[00:33] * Xanthh looks at the round pill-thing.
[00:33] <Xanthh> What?
[00:33] <John Constantine> Not the pill, but the energies infecting it.
[00:33] <John Constantine> the pill is an artifically created soul.
[00:33] * Xanthh looks closer.
[00:33] <John Constantine> We exposed it to some energies which made their way here in order to try and understand them.
[00:34] <Xanthh> I can't really tell from this example.
[00:34] <John Constantine> The real thing is deep underground.
[00:34] * John Constantine points straight down.
[00:34] <Xanthh> Is it? What's it like? Did you see it?
[00:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I did when it first emerged.
[00:34] <Xanthh> Describe it to me.
[00:35] * GreedyTimes looks downward, as if she could see through the floor, and makes a face
[00:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> A long line of... ooze with the consistency of tar.
[00:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> When it hit the floor, it smoked and hissed.
[00:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It has the power of speech.
[00:36] * Xanthh looks as though something came to mind, but he's unsure.
[00:36] <Xanthh> What did it say?
[00:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> IT wanted us to step through the hole in space it made to make a wish.
[00:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And in the history we watched, we believe Locrian was confronted with the same choice.
[00:36] <Xanthh> A wish?.......
[00:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[00:37] <Xanthh> That sounds very familiar.
[00:37] <John Constantine> Do tell.
[00:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Ah it said more.
[00:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It said...
[00:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> "I am All. I am the Product..."
[00:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> "ALL DIED HOPES, ALL GLORIOUS FAILURES. WHERE ALL THOUGHTS DWELL T REACHES ALL AT SOME TIME."
[00:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^IT
[00:38] * Hotel Phone rings
[00:38] <Xanthh> Well... Okay, I'm not possitive, but I read somewhere once that matched the descriptors so far.
[00:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ..And?
[00:39] * @Chateaux Concierge picks it up
[00:39] <@Chateaux Concierge> "What"
[00:39] <Xanthh> It MIGHT be an alternate source of power as opposed to magic itself.
[00:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Like... antimagic?
[00:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Matter to Antimatter, that sort of thing?
[00:40] <Hotel Phone> ♦ hello?
[00:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Or just an alternative to Mana?
[00:40] <Xanthh> Not so much antimagic, just an alternate source of power that people can draw from.
[00:40] * @Chateaux Concierge has moved to: [ Phone ]
[00:40] <@Chateaux Concierge> [Phone] Yes?
[00:40] <Hotel Phone> ♦ did you call me?
[00:40] <GreedyTimes> Like the difference between magic and psychics and martial artists!
[00:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> An alternative wellspring...
[00:40] <@Chateaux Concierge> [Phone] No.
[00:41] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But an infectious one...
[00:41] <Hotel Phone> ♦ ah. I should go then.Oh and do tell mother to stop being so endlessly dramatic. It will give her wrinkles.
[00:41] <Xanthh> Well martial arts comes from years of training by an indiviual.
[00:41] * Xanthh gestures toward himself.
[00:41] <GreedyTimes> And ki.
[00:41] <Xanthh> But I think you understand the gist of it.
[00:42] <Hotel Phone> ♦ take care. Goodnight
[00:42] <Xanthh> I don't know much more, but I can look into it.
[00:42] <@Chateaux Concierge> [Phone] LOL okay night.
[00:42] *** Hotel Phone has left #suburbansenshi2 (*hangs up*)
[00:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'd appreciate it.
[00:42] * @Chateaux Concierge has moved to: [ ]
[00:42] <Xanthh> I enjoy learning as I travel, perhaps I can remember the place I gained that knowledge from.
[00:42] * @Chateaux Concierge has moved back to the lobby
[00:43] <@Chateaux Concierge> Paisley your daughter sauys you're being overdramatic
[00:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She can f[BLEEP]k right off, she's off having fun with her man whilst I'm trying to stop the end of the bloody universe. :/
[00:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I reseve the right to be a touch dramatic ><
[00:44] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is clearly stressed
[00:44] <Xanthh> o-o
[00:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She's a good girl.
[00:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But she knows right how to get under my skin.
[00:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hmm.
[00:45] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte rubs her eyes, pushing up her glasses a bit.
[00:45] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte then rubs the bridge of her nose and tries to focus
[00:45] <Xanthh> Well... Anyway, if it is an alternative to magic, then it's not just something that's massed up under your place. It's everywhere, as is magic. Just some places more than others.
[00:46] <Xanthh> But magic follows rules, and so will this power source.
[00:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I get it.
[00:46] <Xanthh> You said it was asking for you to make a wish?
[00:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Like water seeking its own course.
[00:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[00:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I bet that poor mod soul there did so.
[00:47] <Xanthh> Maybe that's just how it works in order to be used.
[00:47] * Xanthh looks.
[00:47] <John Constantine> Well then the question becomes...
[00:47] <John Constantine> "Okay we're stuck with it... how do .... " OF COURSE.
[00:48] <John Constantine> No wonder it can't be removed.
[00:48] <John Constantine> It's like taking the ki out of a martial artist.
[00:48] <John Constantine> Your body becomes dependent on using it
[00:48] <John Constantine> And you shape it as it shapes you.
[00:49] <John Constantine> You might stop tapping into it but it will always be there.
[00:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But it's corrupting her.
[00:49] <John Constantine> Is it?
[00:49] <Xanthh> Ki is one's life force...
[00:50] <John Constantine> Or is she corrupt and it's following suit.
[00:50] <Xanthh> So removing it would kill anyone.
[00:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What?
[00:50] <John Constantine> We;ll from what you describe she was in a pretty bad place mentally.
[00:50] <John Constantine> HEr life being one series of painful events after another
[00:51] <John Constantine> She's got to have already been pretty twisted by the time she ran into this thing.
[00:51] <John Constantine> So any kind of... utilization and union would take place in that context.
[00:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Like how there's no real differennce between light and black magic except for the approach and the execution?
[00:52] <John Constantine> Well this is all guesswork.
[00:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well the logical implication of that is...
[00:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If she chose to wield it differently...
[00:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> maybe it would have different effects on her?
[00:53] * Masuyo closes up shop, walking downstairs
[00:53] * Masuyo pauses...and bows to the lady peinforte
[00:53] * Xanthh shrugs.
[00:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Like wielding it wisely out of compassion, not out of anger?
[00:54] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte nods in return
[00:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Good work, Masuyo.
[00:54] <Masuyo> thank you..I do try
[00:54] <Masuyo> ...you two cannot sleep?
[00:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'll sleep in a bit.
[00:54] <John Constantine> I don't really sleep.
[00:55] <Masuyo> oh...
[00:55] <Masuyo> is this your lover?
[00:55] <Xanthh> Hey, does this place have the ability to teleport one accross a different plane and at a pinpoint destination. I think I may know where I read that information, but if I went in search of it from here, it may take me months going to and coming back.
[00:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> OH GOD NO.
[00:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We're related somehow.
[00:55] <Masuyo> oh!
[00:55] <Masuyo> yes I see the resemblance
[00:55] <Masuyo> quite uncanny
[00:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Across a plane? To a pinpoint...
[00:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> No thart kind of related.
[00:55] * Xanthh laughs softly at the reaction.
[00:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Via marriage.
[00:56] <Masuyo> ah I see
[00:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> He's the son of my... brother... something or orther I don't know it's VERY complicated.
[00:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well...
[00:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's outside of my training, I'm good with portals in this plane...
[00:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> There are others...
[00:57] <Xanthh> All right, also, I wanted to ask something.
[00:57] <John Constantine> you'd have to hit the astral plane and then find a congruence with the plane you wanted.
[00:57] <John Constantine> I can do it out of body but not physically.
[00:58] <Xanthh> If you know Locrian, you must know where's she's from.
[00:58] <Xanthh> Right?
[00:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> A nation called Tidespeak, it sounds like.
[00:58] <Xanthh> Don't ever teleport there.
[00:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because of general dangers in the environment, or do teleports just go insane.
[00:59] <Xanthh> If you ever get the crazy idea to go there, make sure you teleport well out of the Hollows.
[00:59] <Xanthh> Then travel by foot.
[00:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Understood.
[00:59] <Xanthh> The history of that forest...
[01:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ...
[01:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I believe I saw her in visions dealing with a forest..
[01:00] <Xanthh> Tidespeak lies within. The Hollows, possibly the most dangerous part of the entire planet. Odd how it serves as such a great defense for those with enough courage to make it their home.
[01:01] <Xanthh> Also, don't fly, either.
[01:01] <Xanthh> Especially not over the Howling crags part.
[01:02] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte makes note of this.
[01:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Got it.
[01:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I;ll try to find a good way to get you a reliable teleport.
[01:02] <Xanthh> The only safe time to travel over the crags is when there's a full moon, when it's actually quiet. Even then, I'd advise against it.
[01:02] <Xanthh> All right.
[01:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> There's always Nelius.... he seems to be able to gate anywhere. I've never seen the like.
[01:02] <Xanthh> Also, just one last thing.
[01:03] <John Constantine> yeah it's amazing.
[01:04] <Xanthh> I don't know what you plan to do, but again, if you get any ideas of going there to confront her, like I did, try avoid going into the forest if at all possible. Stay on the roads. Your lives will depend on it.
[01:04] <John Constantine> ...Like you did?
[01:05] <Xanthh> Yes, I wanted to change her. Thinks didn't work out. Almost lost a brother.
[01:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What uhh, approach did you take with her?
[01:07] <Beauty_Queen> That kind of skill isn't easy to learn.
[01:07] <Beauty_Queen> It takes years of training to be able to open a Dimensional Gate
[01:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Can you do it?
[01:08] <Beauty_Queen> It's why it's a valid NPC title. "Dimensional Gatekeeper"
[01:08] <Beauty_Queen> No.
[01:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Know anyone who can?
[01:08] <Beauty_Queen> But they're easy to hire. Also there are limits.
[01:08] <Xanthh> Well, my brother sort of ruined it before I had a chance. He planned to form a group within Tidespeak with one of the minor deities worshipped there, and undermine authority and take control like some sort of mafia, either impressing her, or forcing her to listen.
[01:09] <Beauty_Queen> If the other side is sealed off by a gatekeeper, a gate can't be opened to that world/location until it's reopend
[01:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yeah I get the notion she'd just crush that flat as soon as look at it.
[01:10] <Beauty_Queen> Actully. I think there's a Dimensional Gatekeeper upstairs at Rosenqueen.
[01:10] <Xanthh> Yeah, she impaled him a few seconds within meeting him.
[01:11] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Etna, how would we hire this person.
[01:11] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Xanthh needs to go somewhere.
[01:11] <Beauty_Queen> You ask them.
[01:11] <Beauty_Queen> As I said, there's one upstairs
[01:12] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte rubs her forehead
[01:12] <Beauty_Queen> I had one hired when I sent for Rosenqueen to open a branch office here.
[01:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> always something. John.
[01:12] <John Constantine> I'll go.
[01:12] * John Constantine heads upstairs to the Rosenqueen
[01:13] * John Constantine has moved to: [ Rosenqueen ]
[01:14] * Demons laze about the shop, 3 diffrent shop counters, a gate keeper and a healer. The stations are unattened but all the demons are there.
[01:15] <John Constantine> [Rosenqueen] Hey. I'm looking for a Gatekeeper.
[01:16] * An Ancher Class Demon looks up from a PS Vita "That would be me
[01:17] <John Constantine> [Rosenqueen] I've got a guy downstairs who needs to gate somewhere and be able to vome back.
[01:17] <John Constantine> [Rosenqueen] ^come
[01:17] <John Constantine> [Rosenqueen] He might be gone for a few days, not sure.
[01:17] <An Ancher Class Demon> Where do you need a gate opened to.
[01:17] <An Ancher Class Demon> *?
[01:18] <John Constantine> [Rosenqueen] I'm not sure. Can you come downstairs with me to talk to the guy?
[01:18] * An Ancher Class Demon nods and returns the game system to her inventory, before heading downstairs.
[01:19] <Xanthh> (( Oh boy.... Will Xanthh be able to tell it's a demon? ))
[01:19] * John Constantine has moved back to the lobby
[01:19] <John Constantine> This young lady here might be able to help us
[01:19] <An Ancher Class Demon> Depends, does this look a demon to you?
[01:20] <Xanthh> (( Any evil aura at all? Xanthh is Lawful good. ))
[01:20] <An Ancher Class Demon> (( Demons are for the most part Chaotic Netural ))
[01:21] <Xanthh> (( from YOUR world, that I am completely unfamiliar with in all ways possible, that's why I ask. ))
[01:21] <GreedyTimes> (( Disgaea-style ones, in the general case. ))
[01:22] * Xanthh looks at the girl oddly.
[01:22] * An Ancher Class Demon twirls a pen between her fingers, a sheet of paper in the other "Where do you need the gate opened to?
[01:22] <Xanthh> How does your... hair... stay like that?
[01:23] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte gets some aspirin

[01:24] *** John Constantine has recieved G¥50000 !!
[01:24] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte gives John 50k in Gold Yen
[01:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> My head hurts.
[01:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Make the arrangements please.
[01:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I need to go home for the night.
[01:24] <John Constantine> What if it costs more?
[01:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That's fity f[BLEEP]king thousand in GOLD.
[01:25] * An Ancher Class Demon scribles something on the paper. Looks like she's converting a baseline amount into Hell
[01:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If it costs more I dunno what to tell you. Go out on the street and show some leg.
[01:25] <An Ancher Class Demon> (( Hell being the Netherworld currency ))
[01:25] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte reminds her that Gold Yen is - to USD not Yen
[01:26] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte opens A portal to her Estate and staggers though, so very tired.
[01:26] *** Paisley Pythia Peinforte [paisely_p@firstcircle.karn03-kasterborusrelay.sen] has left #suburbansenshi2 (I just need to drop.)
[01:26] * John Constantine frowns
[01:26] <John Constantine> (She's overextending herself...)
[01:26] <An Ancher Class Demon> Now then. Your gate. Where do you need it?
[01:27] <Xanthh> (( I actually need to go to bed, can you just assume that Xanthh says the name of the city. Quite frankly, I don't know what to call it, so xDDDDD ))
[01:28] *** okay have a godo night i'll be gone soon too
[01:28] <An Ancher Class Demon> (( Is it on earth or antoher world? ))
[01:30] * An Ancher Class Demon just... opens a gate then?
[01:30] *** I need to drop so whatever the cost is bill constantine and tell me tomorrow XD
[01:31] *** I guess we'll do the actual gating later
[01:31] * John Constantine pays whatever it is
[01:31] *** Xanthh [0] has quit IRC (Going back to my home planet to study. Don't worry, I'm sure I'll find something interesting.)
[01:31] * John Constantine is away: (Player cannot keep eyes open)
[01:31] *** night
[01:32] <Xanthh> (( Night ))
[01:32] <GreedyTimes> I am so way over my head here.
[01:34] * An Ancher Class Demon heads back to Rosenqueen
[01:34] <Beauty_Queen> How so?
[01:40] <GreedyTimes> Like...
[01:41] <GreedyTimes> I'm a human, and I think my soul is that of a river dragon that doesn't have a river anymore.
[01:41] <GreedyTimes> You all, though, you're the real deal.
[01:44] <Beauty_Queen> You could always get a Job Title chnge
[01:46] <GreedyTimes> What would that mean?
[01:48] <Beauty_Queen> You can apply to become a demon or angel.
[01:48] <Beauty_Queen> Though such applications are eaiser to if you're dead.. a living applicent isn't unheard of.
[01:49] <GreedyTimes> That's-- that's just a thing that people do?
[01:50] <Beauty_Queen> It's not considered morally "right" in human socity if that's what you're asking
[01:52] <GreedyTimes> Yeah, well, human society thinks I'm crazy for being a dragon in a human suit.
[01:53] * GreedyTimes squints at Etna
[01:53] <GreedyTimes> I know we've never met, but I know I've seen you somewhere before.
[01:55] <Beauty_Queen> Beauty Queen Etna. You probably played one of my games.
[01:56] <GreedyTimes> Of course they're real.
[01:56] * GreedyTimes laughs bleakly and shakes her head
[01:56] <GreedyTimes> All these things happened.
[01:57] <GreedyTimes> I mean, like, it's not a really big thing for me? But I almost think it should, like actually be a big thing.
[02:00] * Beauty_Queen pulls out a copy of Disgaea D2 and a magnifyng lens. She puts the magnifying lens over a corner of the back cover to reveal it says in TEENY TINY LITTLE ITTYBITTY print "Based on a true story"
[02:01] <GreedyTimes> And the other games?
[02:02] <Beauty_Queen> Same thing
[02:02] <Beauty_Queen> (( Disgaea 4 hasn't happend yet though so it's in a state of semi-existance in the box ))
[02:03] <Beauty_Queen> (( simply because I brought Flonne in as a Fallen angel before 4 was out ))
[02:04] <GreedyTimes> ...huh.
[02:04] <GreedyTimes> I wonder if I'm good enough to be an angel?
[02:06] <Beauty_Queen> You'd have to ask an angel that question
[02:06] <GreedyTimes> I'll think about it.
[02:07] <GreedyTimes> I don't think I have what it takes to be a good demon.
[02:07] <Beauty_Queen> I think Nelius is freinds with one. There's another one lurking about but... he needs help more then he can help anyone.
[02:07] <GreedyTimes> What's his name?
[02:08] * Beauty_Queen looks though the log files
[02:08] <Beauty_Queen> The one that needs help?
[02:09] <GreedyTimes> Yeah.
[02:09] <Beauty_Queen> Daniel.
[02:10] <GreedyTimes> I'll try and remember it.
[02:10] <Beauty_Queen> He was sent here to help humans who had given up on life but because humans that don't have strong beliefs can't see angels he's been trapped here waching people die over and over.
[02:11] <GreedyTimes> Oh dear :(
[02:12] <GreedyTimes> Well, thanks Etna! I'll try and find Nelius.
[02:12] <GreedyTimes> I should have gone back to my place hours ago, I'm going to be so sleepy tomorrow.
[02:12] <Beauty_Queen> Have fun with that
[02:13] <GreedyTimes> We can dream, right?
[02:13] <GreedyTimes> sometimes I don't have much else.
[02:13] * GreedyTimes waves and leaves
[02:13] *** GreedyTimes [GreedyTimes@mail.asahi-net.jp] has left #suburbansenshi2 (Ask me about my pronouns and species!)

[09:41] <@spiritflame> ohayo marie ishihara
[09:42] <Marie Ishihara> (Maybe there will be more people this time...)
[09:45] * Marie Ishihara checks the time on her Titan brand watch.
[09:45] <Marie Ishihara> (Everyone is either working or still asleep.)
[09:45] * Marie Ishihara smiles to herself.
[09:46] <Marie Ishihara> (I'm glad Izumi is training on the morning shift so I can ask her to cover for me if I get sick.)
[09:46] <Marie Ishihara> I wish Mayu would just hire more people...
[09:47] * Marie Ishihara clasps her hands behind her back as she takes a long and leisurely stroll around the Lobby.
[09:52] * Marie Ishihara pauses at each and every painting she passes by to study it for quite some time.
[09:56] <Marie Ishihara> (Beautiful. I wish I could paint like this.)
[10:01] * Marie Ishihara reads the name of the artist, "Kaioh Michiru? That name is familiar...]] She checks a previous painting she had looked at earlier to see that artist's name, (Oh, it's Mitsuske Aya. I think I know her. Maybe. Isn't she that blonde Japanese lady? Hmm...)
[10:01] *** Masuyo has joined #suburbansenshi2
[10:01] <@spiritflame> ohayo masuyo
[10:02] * Masuyo walks downstairs, yawning a bit
[10:02] * Marie Ishihara continues look at the rest of the paintings and eventually her eye comes upon a small glass sclupture partially obscured by a large plant.
[10:02] <Marie Ishihara> (Oh how pretty. It's a little tanuki. I wonder why it's hidden away like this. George Glass? That name is familiar, too...)
[10:03] <Masuyo> good morning
[10:04] * Marie Ishihara turns, mildly startled.
[10:04] * Marie Ishihara looks at Masuyo.
[10:04] *** Masuyo is young woman dressed in an elegent outfit, wearing a hood over her head with sharp yellow eyes and a pleasent smile.
Her image Song is: .
[10:04] <Marie Ishihara> Good morning.
[10:04] * Marie Ishihara smiles.
[10:05] <Masuyo> oh I am sorry if I startled you
[10:06] <Marie Ishihara> Oh, it's alright. It's a hotel, after all. There's bound to be other people here now and again.
[10:07] * Masuyo nods
[10:07] * Marie Ishihara moves away from the small glass tanuki and makes her way to the grand piano in the room.
[10:07] <Masuyo> welcome to the hotel then
[10:07] <Marie Ishihara> Oh, thank you. I've been here once or twice before for a visit.
[10:08] <Marie Ishihara> My colleagues highly recommend that I come here on my time off to relax.
[10:08] <Marie Ishihara> It's a very lovely Hotel.
[10:09] * Marie Ishihara lightly plinks some of the keys, reading the engraved plaque on the edge of the piano. (Tenou Haruka? Wow. This Hotel really have a lot of items belonging to famous people.)
[10:11] <Marie Ishihara> I suppose you're one of the residents that lives here?
[10:12] <Masuyo> I work at the store on the second level of this lobby
[10:14] <Marie Ishihara> Oh?
[10:14] * Marie Ishihara looks up, seeing the two levels filled with stores.
[10:14] <Marie Ishihara> Which store?
[10:15] * Masuyo points to one which looks like an antique shop
[10:16] <Marie Ishihara> (Oh. It looks expensive.)
[10:16] <Marie Ishihara> Is it open, then?
[10:18] <Masuyo> I was just about to open it for the day
[10:20] <Marie Ishihara> Oh. I don't want to rush you or anything.
[10:21] <Masuyo> you are not rushing me...you may enter it if you wish
[10:21] * Masuyo walks upstairs and unlocks the door, proping it open and changing the sign to "OPEN"
[10:21] * Marie Ishihara looks around for a moment before going up the stairs as well and to the store.
[10:21] *** Haru E [SpannerinDWorks@LandofCarnage.nw] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[10:21] <@spiritflame> ohayo haru e
[10:22] * Haru E has moved to: [ Kaelyn's Shop ]
[10:22] * Haru E [Kaelyn's Shop] enters the shop, having taken the time to switch on an appropriate disguise field. "Hey Masuyo."
[10:23] <Masuyo> good morning, Haru
[10:23] * Masuyo has moved to: [ Shop ]
[10:23] * Marie Ishihara has moved to: [ Kaelyn's Shop ]
[10:23] * Haru E [Kaelyn's Shop] gets to work.
[10:23] <Masuyo> [Shop] our first customer
[10:23] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] enters, looking at the items.
[10:24] <Marie Ishihara> (( what would she see in this store? ))
[10:24] * The shop is full of items...some mundane looking...some very old looking..some almost...alien looking
[10:24] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] (Oh, well, I don't know about customer... I doubt I'd be able to afford any of these.)
[10:24] <Marie Ishihara> (( like what kind of items? knick knacks? electronics? clocks? doohickies? ))
[10:25] <The shop> (( tends to be very old items..knick knacks....no electronics....there are clocks there ))
[10:25] <Masuyo> [Shop] our prices are more then fair :)
[10:26] <Haru E> [Kaelyn's Shop] Feel free to take a look around~
[10:27] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] nods, though she still feels a little awkward.
[10:27] * Marie Ishihara looks at Haru E.
[10:27] *** Haru E is a Desco Unit who stands/hovers at 5'11" (counting the tentacled mass on her back, 3'8" without), her primary colors being black and green. She has red eyes and a blue Gynoid Radardish/visor around her forehead. More information about her is Here.
Her image Song is: Awakening the Chaos by ArcSystem Works.
[10:27] <Marie Ishihara> (( she's wearing a disguise? ))
[10:28] <Haru E> (( Indeed. She'd look more like a short person with red eyes and black hair. ))
[10:28] <Haru E> (( I'd add such in the description, but character limits kinda force my hand. ))
[10:29] <Marie Ishihara> (( you could always keep a list of different /looks and change them accordingly. I do that for a lot of my characters. For example, Marie's /look here is different from what her /look would be at Charm Coffee. ))
[10:30] <Haru E> (( I'll keep that in mind. ))
[10:31] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] continues to look around. She pauses and calls out to the red-haired girl, "Excuse me?"
[10:31] <Masuyo> (( who is the red haired girl? ))
[10:32] <Marie Ishihara> (( I assume Haru E? Oh, poop, i read that wrong. lol ))
[10:32] <Marie Ishihara> (( Sorry, I guess I menat black hair^ ))
[10:32] * Haru E [Kaelyn's Shop] looks to Marie. "Yes'm?"
[10:33] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] Do you sell any music boxes?
[10:33] <Haru E> [Kaelyn's Shop] Ah, right over here, miss.
[10:34] * Haru E [Kaelyn's Shop] leads Marie to where the music noxes are.
[10:34] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] follows Haru E to where the music boxes are.
[10:35] * there are a couple old looking music boxes..about five or six of them
[10:38] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] finds one that peaks her interest and she picks it up. ((What does it look like?))
[10:40] * the music box is a wooden box with brass edges and ornate carved designs all around the surface. The top is the type that flips open.
[10:40] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] flips it open to see what kind of song it plays, if it does.
[10:41] <Marie Ishihara> (( i'm glad it's not the Rain Tree music box from the Casablana Memory sailor moon side-story ))
[10:42] <the music box> (( never read that one XD ))
[10:43] * the music box plays a soft pleasent melody.......the top also reveals a mirror on bottom of the top..in the mirror...you can see another world...with people pleasently enjoying a day at what appears to be a park
[10:44] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] (It plays a little video? How neat!)
[10:45] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] Excuse me, do you know what the name of this song is?
[10:45] <Masuyo> [Shop] I belive the song is called..."along the stream"
[10:47] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] nods, gazing at the scene as the song flows through her mind.
[10:47] <Masuyo> [Shop] do you like the music box?
[10:48] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] I do, very much so.
[10:49] * Masuyo [Shop] looks at the price
[10:49] <Marie Ishihara> (( Casablanca Memoies ))
[10:50] <Masuyo> [Shop] well...the box is 4700 yen
[10:51] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] Is that right?
[10:51] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] does some thinking, counting and recounting what money she'll have left over after paying bills.
[10:52] <Masuyo> [Shop] however
[10:53] <Masuyo> [Shop] I can let it go for 2300
[10:53] * Haru E is away: Getting to business
[10:54] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] (I think I could manage to afford that. I won't be able to afford that new pair of spiked pumps, then, but I think I should be alright.)
[10:54] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] (Why the sudden drop in price, though..?)
[10:54] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] Is there..something wrong with it?
[10:55] <Masuyo> [Shop] there is nothing wrong
[10:55] <Masuyo> [Shop] you seem to like it very much..and I wish to make it avalible for you
[10:56] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] purses her full lips as she thinks a moment more. (Do I really want this? It's very beautiful and calming...)
[10:58] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] Alright, I'd like to purchase this, please.
[10:58] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] sets the music box on the counter.
[10:59] * Masuyo [Shop] smiles and walks behind the counter, talling up the price "would you like it wrapped and placed in a bag?"
[11:00] <Marie Ishihara> [Kaelyn's Shop] Yes, please and thank you.
[11:01] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] opens her red purse and takes out her purple wallet.
[11:02] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] takes out the appropriate amount of bills and coins and sets the money on the counter.
[11:03] * Masuyo [Shop] takes the money and carefully wraps up the music box, placing it in a bag
[11:03] <Masuyo> [Shop] thank you for your service :)
[11:04] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] smiles and thanks the shop keep, taking her bag.
[11:04] * Marie Ishihara [Kaelyn's Shop] says goodbye and heads out back down the stairs into the lobby.
[11:04] * Marie Ishihara has moved back to the lobby
[11:05] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> good afternoon
[11:06] <Marie Ishihara> (Oh, it's that woman from the other day.)
[11:06] <Marie Ishihara> Hello again.
[11:07] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> greetings!
[11:08] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> I sent in an application as you suggested
[11:08] <Marie Ishihara> Oh you did? That's good.
[11:09] <Marie Ishihara> I don't honestly know if Mayu will get around to calling you. She's really iffy about hiring new people, you know? (Especially if they aren't Satellite Senshi.)
[11:09] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> I have references if she requires them
[11:10] * Marie Ishihara nods, setting her package down on the floor next to the sofa she's sitting on.
[11:14] <Marie Ishihara> (She seems a little stilted. I wonder if she has a mental disorder. Maybe that's why they have her working here? She seems nice enough, though. She's probably good at her job.)
[11:15] * Marie Ishihara looks at Chiyoko, feeling awkward about the silence.
[11:16] <Marie Ishihara> (Maybe I should go? It's still a little too early to get ready for my shift, though.)
[11:17] <Marie Ishihara> So..Chiyoko..do you have any children?
[11:18] <Marie Ishihara> (You're asking her about kids? Who does that?)
[11:19] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> I am incapable of having children
[11:20] <Marie Ishihara> Oh. (Oh? Oh!)
[11:20] <Marie Ishihara> I'm so terribly sorry.
[11:20] <Marie Ishihara> I mean.
[11:20] <Marie Ishihara> I don't even know if you want children or not.
[11:20] <Marie Ishihara> (God, this is really embarrassing. I'm just blathering on, aren't I?)
[11:20] * Marie Ishihara looks down at her clasped hands, "I'm sorry."
[11:21] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> it is alright...I cannot have children as I do not have that function..as far as I know
[11:22] <Marie Ishihara> (Is she intersex? Did she used to be a guy?)
[11:22] <Marie Ishihara> Al-alright.
[11:22] * Marie Ishihara nods, not wishing to pry futher.

[11:25] <Marie Ishihara> Oh.
[11:25] * Marie Ishihara blinks.
[11:25] <Marie Ishihara> Is that right?
[11:25] * Dead-Eyes sits at a table reading the Phane Codex
[11:25] <Dead-Eyes> The Inqusition does good work.
[11:26] * Matsuo Shin texts Dead-Eyes     ◜ 1 down 5 to go◞
[11:26] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> I am what most people call an android
[11:27] <Marie Ishihara> (Well that makes a lot of sense now. Maybe that's why she has such a stilted personality.)
[11:27] <Marie Ishihara> I see.
[11:27] * Marie Ishihara is startled to notice someone sitting at a table that she hadn't noticed before.
[11:27] * Chiyoko Shinkaze smiles "not that I mind ^^"
[11:27] * Marie Ishihara looks at Dead-Eyes.
[11:27] *** Dead-Eyes is




His image Song is: "The Glitch Mob - Seven Nation Army Remix" .
[11:28] * Chiyoko Shinkaze wanders over "good afternoon, sir. may I get you something to eat?"
[11:30] *** Morrigan [SexyNaughtyBitchyMe@EnclaveFedCom.Net] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[11:30] <@spiritflame> ohayo morrigan
[11:30] <Morrigan>“ [00:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> An alternative wellspring...but an infectious one... ”
[11:31] * Marie Ishihara looks at Morrigan.
[11:31] *** Morrigan is hot, sultry green-haired succubus, well-endowed, well-historied, and well-known by all. ^__~ More information about her is Here.
Her image Song is: .
[11:31] <Morrigan> Were they talking about the Dark Side of the Force last night?
[11:31] <Marie Ishihara> (Wow, how is she not cold in that getup? Are those real wings??)
[11:31] <Dead-Eyes> Judging by the records they seem to have determined few things about the energy under the HOTEL
[11:32] <Morrigan> Such as?
[11:32] <Dead-Eyes> Apparently it is naturally occuring.
[11:32] <Dead-Eyes> It just happens to be in a higher concentration here, but occurs naturally across the universe.
[11:33] <Chiyoko Shinkaze> >_> I take it you do not want food
[11:33] <Dead-Eyes> Secondly it appears to be a fundamental force of some kind.
[11:33] * Marie Ishihara decides not to eavesdrop and she gets to her feet to continue looking around the Lobby, away from the three of them. She holds her bag in the crook of her elbow and walks away to examine yet another painting.
[11:33] <Dead-Eyes> Thirdly it appears that once utilized, it binds to the "soul" and cannot be removed, only co-existed with.
[11:34] <Morrigan> Naturally occurring? It almost sounds like you're describing Dhar.
[11:34] <Dead-Eyes> I'm not familiar with that term.
[11:34] <Morrigan> I'm fine, Chiyoko. I'll get something to eat a little bit later.
[11:35] <Morrigan> "Dhar" is an ancient term used to describe a type of magical energy. It'll take a while to fully explain it, so I'll summarize it quick for you.
[11:36] <Dead-Eyes> By the way, pass my compliments to the Inqusition.
[11:36] * Marie Ishihara frowns, unable to make out the name of the artist. (What a pity. It's such a sad piece.)
[11:36] <Dead-Eyes> Their report was well-done and comprehensive.
[11:38] <Morrigan> Dhar is negatively aspected mana that's formed when it pools and stagnates in places that cause it to be corrupted. Dhar is utilized not by harmonizing with it, but battering, abusing, and twisting it with pure hate, rage, and anger into shape, then using it to amplify that same rage and hate. The thing is, Dhar resonates WELL with those kinds of emotions.
[11:38] <Morrigan> And I'm glad the report came out well for you. Will it help?
[11:40] <Dead-Eyes> It will help, yes.
[11:40] <Morrigan> We're obviously not dealing with "dhar" here, but it sounds similar: a very negative and corrupting form of magical energy that is innately very toxic.
[11:40] * there's also an impressionst landscape painting hanging up
[11:41] * Marie Ishihara continues along, eyeing all of the electronics and video games available. (I guess a lot of nerdish, gamer people frequent this place.)
[11:42] * Morrigan sends messages to various Delmo operatives. Their objectives are to discover any clues and information about Serafina Aurakaiser.
[11:44] <Dead-Eyes> I believe that you may be slightly-off track
[11:44] <Dead-Eyes> it does not appear that this energy is negative.
[11:44] <Morrigan> Oh?
[11:45] <Dead-Eyes> It seems to be agnostic.
[11:46] <Dead-Eyes> But...I should order them to investigate it to see if the negative dnergies affect it more easily.
[11:46] <Dead-Eyes> Because then it might be exactly what you describe.
[11:46] * Marie Ishihara finds herself drawn to a very beautiful potted flower. (I don't think I've ever seen one like this before..)
[11:47] <Morrigan> Our tests on the "soul cancer" Constantine brought back sure seemed to respond very positively to negative emotions.
[11:47] <Dead-Eyes> So noted.
[11:48] <Morrigan> And it responded poorly to positive emotions, but then it started resisting those positive emotions strongly.
[11:49] *** Eiko Kageko has joined #suburbansenshi2
[11:49] <@spiritflame> ohayo eiko kageko
[11:49] <Morrigan> Now, on a side tangent, has there been any more information uncovered about Serafina Aurakaiser?
[11:50] * Eiko Kageko opens the door a bit uneasily and walks in
[11:50] <Eiko Kageko> good afternoon everyone :)
[11:50] <Dead-Eyes> I haven't been involved with that.
[11:50] * Dead-Eyes looks at Eiko Kageko.
[11:50] *** Eiko Kageko is young woman with short green hair and pale eyes. She has a friendly air about her.
Her image Song is: .
[11:50] * Dead-Eyes nods to her
[11:50] * Marie Ishihara turns, her attention distracted from the plant.
[11:51] * Eiko Kageko pauses for a moment...
[11:51] <Marie Ishihara> Good mor..ning...
[11:51] * Marie Ishihara trails off a bit, going quiet.
[11:52] * Eiko Kageko feels her way to a sofa and carefully sits down
[11:52] <Marie Ishihara> (Is she...?)
[11:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> /mw texts Morrigan some co-ordinates, she had gotten so distracted last night she had forgotten to check them out
[11:53] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte texts Morrigan some co-ordinates, she had gotten so distracted last night she had forgotten to check them out
[11:53] * Morrigan texts Paisley     ◜ Any idea where these might lead to?◞
[11:54] * Marie Ishihara bites the inside of her cheek, wondering if she should go over to her. (Do I have the time?)
[11:54] * Marie Ishihara checks her watch and finds that she doesn't have the time to chat up the woman if she wants to make it on time for her shift at Charm Coffee.
[11:54] * Marie Ishihara sighs quietly.
[11:55] * Marie Ishihara makes sure she has all of her belongings.
[11:55] <Marie Ishihara> (Well, people eventually did show up, so that's something. Maybe next time I can try and talk to more people. Maybe make a friend or two.)
[11:56] <Marie Ishihara> (It's hard looking like this and trying to make friends.)
[11:56] * Marie Ishihara frowns a little, annoyed at thinking such a thing.
[11:56] * Marie Ishihara heads on out of the Hotel so she can go back to her apartment, drop off her new purchase, change, and head to Charm Coffee.
[11:56] *** Marie Ishihara [poison_x_death@cameroon.gov] has left #suburbansenshi2
[11:57] * Eiko Kageko tilts her head...trying to listen in on things
[11:58] <Morrigan> Okay, I'm going to concentrate on tracking down Serafina and getting that part back for the Hotel. If the defenses fail we're in serious s[BLEEP]t.
[11:59] <Dead-Eyes> Indeed.
[12:00] <Eiko Kageko> defenses?
[12:00] <Dead-Eyes> Defenses.
[12:01] <Eiko Kageko> what is happening?
[12:01] * Morrigan examines the coordinates provided to get an idea of what's there and what's around them.
[12:01] * Eiko Kageko keeps looking straight ahead but tilts her head to hear better
[12:01] <Dead-Eyes> Various, troublesome things.
[12:02] <Morrigan> A gal by the name of Serafina decided to pick a fight with us by stealing an important component of the Hotel here. All becauses she's pissed off at someone else.
[12:02] <Eiko Kageko> a component....I don't understand
[12:04] <Dead-Eyes> It doesn't matter.
[12:04] * Dead-Eyes doesn't feel like explaining matters to outsiders.
[12:05] <Eiko Kageko> you sound very irritated
[12:05] * Dead-Eyes is actually fairly monotone
[12:05] <Dead-Eyes> Merely busy.
[12:05] <Eiko Kageko> sorry..it is not my place
[12:06] <Eiko Kageko> Oh?....is this place very busy at this hour?
[12:06] <Morrigan> It's fine. You have a right to know what's happening here.
[12:06] <Morrigan> It's usually somewhat quieter, but busy mornings like these aren't unheard of.
[12:06] <Morrigan> Also, you're new.
[12:07] <Eiko Kageko> I have been here before....um...there are only two of you here?
[12:11] <Eiko Kageko> hello?
[12:11] <Eiko Kageko> .........did they leave?
[12:12] <Morrigan> No, we're here.
[12:13] * Dead-Eyes is here, but working on his reports
[12:13] <Morrigan> Right now it seems like there's just the three of us. Apologies in advance if we seem distracted. We've both got some major situations in our laps.
[12:14] * Dead-Eyes is not so much distracted as he has no interest in explaining.
[12:14] <Eiko Kageko> is there somewhere to eat here?
[12:15] * Dead-Eyes points in the direction of the restaurant
[12:16] <Eiko Kageko> where is it?
[12:16] * Dead-Eyes points.
[12:16] * Eiko Kageko feels the sofa and slowly pushes herself up....quickly snapping out her cane
[12:17] <Eiko Kageko> um..would one of you help lead me there
[12:17] <Morrigan> Sure!
[12:17] * Morrigan gets up and helps Eiko get over to the restaurant.
[12:18] * Eiko Kageko smiles "thank you....you're too kind"
[12:18] <Eiko Kageko> I'm sorry to take you away from your work though...
[12:18] <Dead-Eyes> ...
[12:19] <Dead-Eyes> ([Oh, she's blind.)
[12:19] <Morrigan> It's fine. I need a break anyway.
[12:19] <Morrigan> And this place IS intimidatingly large when you think about it.
[12:19] <Eiko Kageko> oh is it?
[12:20] <Morrigan> Yup. Lots of floors above us and plenty more underneath us.
[12:21] <Dead-Eyes> (If she's blind, how did she even get here in the first place.)
[12:25] <Morrigan> Do you have a service animal?
[12:25] <Eiko Kageko> no.....though.............
[12:26] <Eiko Kageko> ..sometimes the voices tell me where to go
[12:26] <Morrigan> Voices?
[12:26] * Eiko Kageko nods
[12:27] * T texts Paisley     ◜ where is everyone..◞
[12:28] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte texts back |Bloody hell
[12:28] <Morrigan> Well, things like that are hardly strange around these parts.
[12:29] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte texts back     ◜Bloody hell ◞
[12:29] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte texts morrigan     ◜Oi, check out those co-ordinates already. ◞
[12:34] * Eiko Kageko orders some food
[12:34] <Morrigan> I need to go. I hope the rest of your day goes well, miss.
