Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart says, "Hi, Ymuli! What a good girl you've been this year! Have an ascendancy!"

Lehki gives Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart the once-over, eyeing her suspiciously.

Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart flashes Lehki a joyous smile.

Calor blinks perplexedly for a moment before emitting a confused "Wha?"

"Wow!" you exclaim to Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart.

Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart flashes you a joyous smile.

Tristanna giggles happily at Lehki.

Aramel blinks.

Serenely, Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart says, "Doesn't everyone else agree? Three cheers for Ymuli!"

Calor says, "Yes!"

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf asks, "What are we agreeing with?"

Calor Hartfire says, "Ymuli being ascended."

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf says, "Oh."

You peer at Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart unscrupulously.

Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart flashes you a joyous smile.

Calor Hartfire says, "Miakoda thinks she deserves a cheer."

Aramel nods her head sagely.

Happily, Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart says, "And for the rest of the Serenwilde, as well!"

Ymuli says, "That I can cheer for."

Clapping her hands together, Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart says, "All together, now! Hip, hip..."

Aramel says, "Hooray!"

Calor says, "Hooray!"

Loudly, Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart says, "Hooray! Everyone!"

Naqqara says, "Hooray!"

Lehki says, "Hooray!"

Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart says, "Hip, hip..."

Tristanna says, "Hooray."

Calor says, "Hooray!"

Aramel says, "Hooray!"

Ymuli says, "Hooray."

Lehki says, "Hooray!"

Happily, Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart says, "One last round - shout it out, for Serenwilde!"

Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart says, "HIP, HIP..."

Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart says, "Shout out for the Serenwilde!"

Lehki says, "HOORAY!"

Aramel says, "HOORAY!"

Mairin says, "Hooooray."

Calor Hartfire shouts, "HOORAY!"

You shout, "Hooray!"

Druid Naqqara shouts, "Hooray!"

Happily nodding, Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart says, "Lovely. Now, get off my lawn."

Perhaps it's a bad sign that my first impulse when I learn impersonate and voicethrow is to troll my own commune

Breandryn

Two quotes from a fun hunt:

Initiate Saz, of the Hart says to Ymuli, "What are the blanknotes for?"

Ymuli Strongleaf, of the Curious Heart says, "It allows you to hear my song, which will assist you with various things."

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf says, "So that we can hear Ymuli sing."

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf says, "Which may or may not be a good thing, under most circumstances, but is useful for making me want to kill things extra vengefully right now."

Aramel hums a happy tune.

Ymuli Strongleaf, of the Curious Heart says, "In spring, my song will heal your wounds. Summer will soothe your ego. And bequietAramel."

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf says, "Oh, which is it that makes me want to hit things extra hard, then? Is that winter?"

Ymuli Strongleaf, of the Curious Heart says, "Do you mean Celebration?"

Aramel nods her head emphatically.

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf says, "Oh, yes, probably."

Ymuli Strongleaf, of the Curious Heart says, "That happens all the time I have my song invested for hunting."

Ymuli beams broadly.

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf says, "I knew it."

Initiate Saz, of the Hart says to Ymuli, "It's quite alright, I am violent enough without such boons."

Ymuli Strongleaf, of the Curious Heart laughingly says to Saz, "You have them anyway!"

Ymuli Strongleaf, of the Curious Heart says, "It is a passive effect of being my ally when I am playing my song."

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf says, "It's a passive effect of listening to Ymuli's song at all."

Aramel nods her head sagely.

----------

And speaking of burns:

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf says, "Can we get rid of the briar walls?"

Heirophant Eolae, Beloved of the White Hart says, "Ignite is the only way."

Aramel points a rope ring at Eolae, and sparks fly out of it.

Flames erupt on Eolae's skin, blistering his flesh.

Aramel peers about herself unscrupulously.

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf says, "Sorry."

Heirophant Eolae, Beloved of the White Hart says, "Did you just light me on fire?"

Ymuli Strongleaf, of the Curious Heart says, "Only a little."

Edit:

Aramel points a rope ring at Saz, and sparks fly out of it.

Flames erupt on Saz's skin, blistering his flesh.

Aramel peers about herself unscrupulously.

Wildeflower Aramel Strongleaf says, "Whyyyy."

Rancoura

It's okay, @Aramel, I lit @Shango on fire twice during wildnodes because my syntax was broken.

Aramel

I kept trying to POINT IGNITE AT E and POINT IGNITE AT S.

Make the Xynthin timeline a reality

Rideta

Ever since I made Rideta, I've realized the terrible error of my ways in naming preferences. Namely, thanks to the sheer number of people who try to RIDE <thing> or something similar. I imagine others with names that begin with 'T,' or share a similarity to another common command feel my pain. Every now and then, though, I get something a bit more interesting than, 'pony.'

Issey tells you, "Warrior."

Issey tells you, "No stop."

You tell Issey, Echo of the Wyrd, "You... you are trying to.. Hmm!"

Xenthos

That could just be "r warrior" instead of "t warrior".  But yes, the moment the config options came out to require explicitly typing "tell" and using the full name of the person I enabled them and have never regretted it.

Luce

Frankly, I use X <thing> when setting a target, in part because it's less likely to mis into something else, plus fullname on and nametells off.

Rideta

You're probably right Xenthos, but the mental image always amused me.

Ssaliss

On occasion, I get tells with "s" or "e" etc.

Luce

I've long since learned you don't start a name here with 'tel', 'sy', or 'ay'. 'cas' is probably out too, but less often.

Talan

I do get a lot of tells from newbies calling me a fink.

Crek

I get a lot of tells from what I assume are meant to be ct.

Everiine

Early on there was a character named Eve. We got our tells and things SO mixed up.

r is my raze/blanknote alias that I didn't set up properly on my end so I ended up sending r warrior

Those weren't accidents though, you dirty fink.

Shedrin

I get tells of player descriptions. Some are pretty interesting.

Luce

Note to self, add "He-" and "She-" to my list. 

Xenthos

What about "ge"?  People try to do "get" and get "gt" all the time, I'm sure "ge" has to happen a lot as well.  Also ta (take) and pu (put).

Luce

I feel like a lot of the Tel, Sy, and Ay are because keystrokes are happening too fast and the buffer is either missing or intentionally ignoring some (or the brain skips them, I've had both but the first is more common for me.). I might see Tae and Pu happening like that too, and maybe someone like Gero getting a lot of Soandso tells you, "T gold." (again, I tend to just use g for that when I can, for that reason, and not at all because I'm lazy.)

Synkarin

Can confirm - I get lots of tells that sound like they are talking to me, but it's really just a 'say' gone wrong.

And then sometimes I get mudsex says

I should start saving those ones

Eldanien

I only get miss commands a few times, but I think the best one I've seen is when Eldanien's bride kissed Eldril at the wedding ceremony.

Tamashi

Hilarious and awkward, both accounts @Synkarin and @Eldanien

Sylandra

@Synkarin it is the curse of the "Sy" names.

Tamashi

Almost tempting to make a Emte- or Emot- name just to see the weirdness that would inspire. It would end up being a lottery at that rate.

That just sounds like your asking for trouble
