QUOTES 8: THE QUOTING

Sylandra

(Ad-Hoc): Falmiis (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "Why do I get an odd sense of being a 

celebrity couple ;-;."

All aboard the good ship Faramel.

Falaeron

(Ministry of Marital Affairs): You say, "I married the best e-spouse."

(Ministry of Marital Affairs): Daraius (from the Aetherways) says, "Ehhhh."

(Ministry of Marital Affairs): Daraius (from the Aetherways) says, "2nd best?"

(Ministry of Marital Affairs): Sylandra (from the Aetherways) says, ":3."

(Ministry of Marital Affairs): Sylandra (from the Aetherways) says, "Except I know Dar is referring to himself."

Zyphora

(Ad-Hoc): Rendon says, "Halberds need sheathes or frogges?"

(Ad-Hoc): You say, "They need halnests."

(Ad-Hoc): Rendon says, "Lol what."

(Ad-Hoc): You say, "You know. Birds. Nests."

(Ad-Hoc): Rendon says, "Tee hee."

(Ad-Hoc): Falmiis says, "Zyphora."

(Ad-Hoc): Falmiis says, "Get out."

(Ad-Hoc): Falmiis says, "You're not welcome here anymore."

:c

Breandryn

This isn't funny, but it did made me smile a lot.

(Gaudiguch): You say, "There are words here. How did that happen?"

(Gaudiguch): Farlaris says, "Words?"

(Gaudiguch): You say, "A script, glowing on the wall."

(Gaudiguch): Farlaris says, "Illusions I think."

(Gaudiguch): Talan says, "Are you referring to an illusory script? Like graffiti glowing in the air?"

(Gaudiguch): You say, "Oh, like the bards use?"

(Gaudiguch): You say, "Yes, Talan!"

(Gaudiguch): Talan says, "More likely it's someone with a chromapen."

(Gaudiguch): You say, "Oh! Thank you. Whoever it is, is very nice."

(Gaudiguch): Talan says, "But do not keep us in suspense, what do the words say?"

Before the Eternal Flame. (Capital City of the Grand Province of Gaudiguch.)

Throughout the location, small dancing flames flicker and spark. Glowing on a nearby wall is script that reads, "Breandryn is the best!" 

Kistan

@Breandryn Shhh! You were in the room when i did it!

Breandryn

I totally zoned out and didn't realize it happened! I remember the subsequent discussion about illusions and reality, though, which was lovely!

Breandryn

(Fire Hogwash): You say, "I feel like a bad person, begging from these folks in Lirangsha."

(Fire Hogwash): You say, "They are already poor."

(Fire Hogwash): You say, "But they are finding so much gold to give me..."

(Fire Hogwash): Talan says, "They're not."

(Fire Hogwash): You say, "This is my first time here."

(Fire Hogwash): You say, "I have to wonder, maybe if there weren't so darn many of them, maybe then they wouldn't be starving."

(Fire Hogwash): Talan says, "They're starving the way that Jewel once left her upper middle class suburban home to go and live in a van under a bridge."

Breandryn

You tell Yarith Shevat, the Northern Hope, "Xyphrr."

You tell Yarith Shevat, the Northern Hope, "Oops no."

Yarith tells you, "Setting target to Xyphr. Preparing to destroy."

Xypher jerks slightly as the air fills with sparkling motes of bright light.

You sense Yarith pulling on the strands of aether surrounding Xypher.

You give a trillingly melodic laugh.

The sweet scent of cherry blossoms wafts through the air as a cavalcade of ivory petals heralds the entrance of Yarith.

Yarith bops Xypher on the head.

Yarith waves goodbye.

Yarith spreads his arms wide, and the air between his hands begins to warp and twist, dancing with brilliant multicoloured light as he bores a hole through the fabric of the planes.

Xypher blinks.

A swirling gateway of brilliant light pierces the air before Yarith, boring a hole through the very fabric of the planes. Yarith ascends confidently through the rotating gate, which shimmers and snaps shut behind him.

You giggle happily.

Rolan blinks.

Breandryn

You ponder the situation.

Head tilting in thought, you say, "Does the city have an anthem?"

Sksez nods his head emphatically.

You look skeptical and say to Sksez, "I mean an OFFICIAL one."

Adherent Sksez sings, "All hail Skseeeeeeeez, Handsome, cool and smart!"

You stare implacably at Sksez.

Adherent Sksez sings, "We forever hold his awesomeness very close to all our hearts!"

Xypher bops Sksez on the head.

Quietly, you say, "He is odd and weird and smells like boiled farts."

Adherent Sksez sings, "His smile, it shines like diamonds, His face has a golden glow!"

"Ha!" Rolan exclaims to you with gusto.

Adherent Sksez sings, "And the entire Basin thinks we're lucky that we know!"

Adherent Sksez says, "Him!"

Sksez gives up a round of applause.

In a soft soprano, you say, "An eternity could not contain what he doesn't know."

Adherent Sksez says to you, "You're cut off from all future Sksez-cooked food."

Sksez nods his head sagely.

You say to Sksez, "That food makes me dizzy anyways."

The Scarlet Lion, Captain Rolan Vessandril says to you, "I'll cook you better food than he will."

Adherent Sksez says, "Well."

Adherent Sksez says, "I'm off to commit suicide."

Sksez waves and says "Goodbye!"

Sksez leaves to the east.

Breandryn

Ok, so that got better. I maybe spun that silliness off into a contest for the city, to produce fun anthem lyrics. This is Rolan's submission and it's great:

You read what is written on a torn sheet of journal stationery:

The Gaudiguchian Anthem:

Start by arranging a group of people in a bar, pub, tavern, or other

place where you drink alcohol in volume. Make sure all people involved have alcohol in quantity, and they imbibe said alcohol.

The anthem is started by one person loudly singing in a key of their

choosing: "Gaudiguch! The City of Freedom! The City we Love!"

To which all assembled parties shout in unison some matter of agreement. "Aye!" is preferred, but variance for flavor is recommended.

From this point on, anything goes. Sing whatever you want, in any way you want. Sing once, or multiple times. Drink before, during, or after singing at your discretion.

Finally, once a certain amount of singing has been done and everyone has quieted, any party says, exclaims, yells, or shouts "For Freedom!", to which all involved parties should echo at the same volume.

These instructions should be followed only as much as you care to. The important thing is to drink and be merry among friends.

Rolan Vessandril, Still Writing Terrible Song Lyrics

Tremula

@Breandryn @Rolan's idea reminds me of the Hogwart's theme with Dumbledore directing. 10/10 would roll a(nother) Gaudi.

Skanylla

"You are:

Truefavoured by Darvellan for about 21 hours."

Xenthos

You slip into a brief trance, going under a deep cover and taking on the identity of Scuchidira.

Shaddus

Self quoting is horrible, but I had to post this.

(The Crux): Talan (from the Astral Plane) says, "They threw up on my shoes."

(The Crux): You say, "It was probably an improvement on your shoes."

(Person) has just left you message #74.

   Jeez that was quite the burn.

Falaeron

Eloise (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "I keep trying to message Caramel and Yummy."

Aramel

  Never free of it. 

Saz

(Serenwilde): Eadeol says, "Shh!"

(Serenwilde): Kendra says, "What?"

(Serenwilde): Eadeol says, "Practicing librarianship."

Ymuli appointed Eadeol as Librarian.

Ymuli

Best protege ever. 

Breandryn

Gaudiguch holds an aetherhunt!

(Fire Hogwash): Rolan (from the Aetherways) says, "Look at it this way: If we die, it usually is because someone effed up, and it's rarely the collectors."

(Fire Hogwash): Ackaur says, "I think I gained a new purpose in life."

(Fire Hogwash): Sksez says, "Is it fucking up royally as a collector, Ack?"

(Fire Hogwash): Ackaur says, "I'll figure out a way to do royal damage."

(Fire Hogwash): Sksez says, "I believe in you, Ackaur!"

(Fire Hogwash): Ackaur says, "Thank you, Sksez."

(Fire Hogwash): Sksez says, "That's why I didn't want to go, Breandryn. Because I'm secretly praying that Ack's gonna do me good and crash the ship."

Luce

Double-drawing. If the siphoners draw a karibidean while another karibidean is already active, demigod passengers would be wise to ATH.

Breandryn

Well, I did cut out the part of the conversation where I admitted to crashing a ship as a collector >_>

Breandryn

You ponder Aomeoughu thoughtfully, looking him up and down.

You say to Aomeoughu, "Want to earn some gold?"

Aomeoughu's ears perk up with a sudden interest.

Ember Aomeoughu says, "Wait."

You tilt your head curiously.

You have emoted: Breandryn waits, patiently.

Ember Aomeoughu says, "I don't have to take my clothes off in a dark alley do I?"

Ember Aomeoughu says, "Not that I am opposed."

Ember Aomeoughu says, "Just... I prefer to know ahead of time."

Issey

[1:45 PM] Demartel: nexus invoke forum will be the new discretionary to get rid of vines

Xenthos

Didn't work for forest fires, alas.

Issey

(salt joke)

Demartel

Xenthos said:

Didn't work for forest fires, alas.

Well if you are trying to put out fires with salt, no wonder you guys complain about fires so much.

Xenthos

Salt water works just fine, though!  The salt isn't necessary, but it may be more entertaining depending on your perspective.

Rancoura

So... tears? Both ours and theirs works, I guess?

Breandryn

(Fire Hogwash): Enadonella says, "This clan is in the wrong hole."

Lavinya

A shirtless man-servant says to you, "Do you come here often, you sexy thing?"

With a wink, a shirtless man-servant says, "I'd tap that."
