You laughingly say to Afrit, "Oh hey, did I tell you my awesome pun?"
Afrit shakes his head at you.
Rubbing your hands together, you grin with evil satisfaction.
His eyes twinkling mischievously, you say, "Instead of running the machine with a power cord, we'll use POWER CHORDS!"
Nepenthe immediately dashes off some righteous power chords on an obsidian rose lute.
Revelrous Afrit, Lazula of the Sands sticks out his tongue and says, "Wow."
Revelrous Afrit, Lazula of the Sands says, "That is indeed an awesome pun."
You smile impishly and say, "Because you charge the capacitor with music initially."
Afrit nods his head at you.
Afrit gives you a friendly squeeze.
Afrit wraps you in his arms from behind and snuggles up against you comfortably.
Loudly, you say, "Do you get it?"
Revelrous Afrit, Lazula of the Sands says, "I get it!"
You snicker softly to yourself.
The Ark of Enlightenment shudders and shakes as a black dragon rips apart her hull. (Ship): The Ark of Enlightenment says, "I have been infested by an aetheretic slivven!" (Ship): Khnemu says, "But I need to really sit down andasdfosiahsfd." (Ship): Khnemu says, "Slivven exterminated."
You give a love letter to Chevalier Tristan de Gaulle.
Chevalier Tristan de Gaulle says, "I think I know who this is from. At least, I hope I do. Please, take this to whoever gave you this letter." Chevalier Tristan de Gaulle furtively slips something to you.
The blade of this knife is made from fine steel and embossed with silver and gold scrollwork. Engraved on the hilt is the missive, "Until Eternity, Tristan". A large ruby is set upon the end of the pommel. It weighs about 10 pounds. It has the following aliases: knife.
You give an ornate knife to Lisette Tautou.
Lisette Tautou kisses an ornate knife passionately.
You see Lisette Tautou yell, "Chevalier Tristan de Gaulle! Come to me, my darling!"
Lisette Tautou exclaims, "My darling! My lover! My joy! Chevalier Tristan de Gaulle, we are together at last!" Chevalier Tristan de Gaulle rushes into the room and into the arms of Lisette Tautou.
Chevalier Tristan de Gaulle exclaims, "Lisette Tautou, I didn't think you could love an old man like me! How happy I am!"
Lisette Tautou exclaims, "Caohite, without you, we wouldn't be together. Thank you!"
You feel your chest swell with pride as you have succeeded as a matchmaker!
Is this what love is?
"One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth.
Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and
again."
Not so much funny as just plain, let's tug on Lief's heartstrings when she logs in after work.
The crystal bindi on your forehead tingles as a vision of swirling blossoms passes before your eyes. The lovely peach fragrance that follows suggests a divine message from Lady Maylea for your ears only.
A lovely fragrance of peach blossoms envelops you as the soft, insightful voice of Maylea whispers in your ear, "My Eldin: You see the colours in the darkest of souls, through the scars of years. Unbroken, rest upon Me, for strength need not come from you alone."
You have emoted: Lief softens, her eyes closing as her hand touches her heart. She lingers this way for some time, still beneath the ancient lime tree here.
You have emoted: Scarcely audible above the early autumn rustling of colorful leaves, Lief finally whispers, "You *are* my strength, my Lady, my Mother."
Amazing beautiful stunning avatar by Gurashi! ~ A gentle breeze ruffles your wings and whispers in your ears, as if for you alone, "Dragonfly's words shine... seeds, sown and tended, inspire... a forest harvest." ~ Maylea reaches out, Her fingers poised in midair. "Now you are of Me, even more than you were before." Her golden and azure eyes glitter. "Walk well, Eldin. Shed glory in My name, and bring life to the lifeless."
Softly, Coraline Myeras sings, "Waddling through the grass, gliding through the lakes.."
Slightly higher in pitch, Coraline Myeras says, "Gulping up some fish, and fighting off some snakes..."
Mimicking the waddling motion of a duck, Coraline Myeras sings, "Duck duck duck, you love to quack, quack, quack!"
Cheerfully, Coraline Myeras sings, "And live your merry life, looking for the next snack!"
Pulling up a fist in determination, Coraline Myeras sings, "Pitter patter goes your feet, and your foes flee in defeat!"
With a flourish of her arm, Coraline Myeras sings, "Never change, brave ducky, keep dancing to your beat!"
You have been recognised by Elexia for: She is such an incredible writer, and I adore the friendship between Faythe and Elexia. Faythe's emotes are well-written and creative, and in this scene in particular she has done such wonderful emotes using the Moondancer fae! It's always inspiring and so very much fun.
You have been recognised by Lief for: There is a LOT to recognize you over. We've had so many great scenes - so much tension and warmth and friendship and confusion between our two characters, and I love every moment of it. Not to mention the cult - I am so glad you could make it, and Faythe's role in its creation was beautiful. It wouldn't have been the same event without Faythe's presence there. Thank you!!
Jolanthe Myeras says, "Well, there's a ritual with the Chancel where that one dark dwarf might do it to curse her ancestors, um."
Jolanthe tugs her chin thoughtfully.
Lendren Starfall says, "Probably folly of city-folk dancing, seeking for power, and thus horrors chancing."
Nialla Mes'ard, Midsummer Herald says, "And how do we put them back, to halt their attack?"
Jolanthe Myeras says, "Ethildora Varrim, the Dark Virago."
You say, "Oh gosh. What has Faythe done to you all."
Jolanthe Myeras says, "It would involve operating within the Chancel {snip some quest details}, though I am not versed in all the specifics that this entails."
Wodewose Tyrus says, "Who would do such a thing? Undead horrors to bring?"
Lendren Starfall says to you, "As Tyrus must struggle with verse, some of us join at his worst."
Jolanthe Myeras says to you, "It's kind of fun when you don't have lots of ideas and things to communicate suddenly and all at once."
Wodewose Tyrus says, "No, was a shortcut to the mountain path, instead I faced undead wrath."
Glimpsing into the future, you know to avoid sprawled.
Aeonics op.
Her voice firm and commanding, Terentia, the Even Bladed says to you, "You have kept your oath to Me, Parhelion. You have sworn to maintain Justice in these troubled times."
Yet if a boon be granted me, unworthy as I am, let it be for a steady hand with a clear eye and a fury most inflaming.
Glimpsing into the future, you know to avoid sprawled.

I just imagine you sitting down, and then using all your aeonics ability to look in the future and realizing that will make you seated, so quickly standing back up.
@Esano had fun lighting an entire timequake on fire - which I had to put out while releasing.

10) 2020/09/01 09:41:50 - Sapphira: "SO MUCH FIRE."
11) 2020/09/01 09:42:19 - Akyaevin: "Bob deserves it, the grifter."
12) 2020/09/01 09:42:33 - Akyaevin: "Not that I have any idea how it got there."

14) 2020/09/01 09:43:37 - Brawrur: "Arson has my full support."
15) 2020/09/01 09:44:47 - Akyaevin: "Well, I don't disapprove of arson in the general sense. I know many places that would be greatly improved by being on fire."
16) 2020/09/01 09:45:05 - Lysandus: "Like Celest and Glomdoring?"
17) 2020/09/01 09:45:08 - Akyaevin: "I just disapprove of anyone considering me responsible for these places suddenly being on fire under mysterious circumstances."
You create a series of windows in the cosmic fabric and search out all your allies.
Through the cosmic windows, you see:
Ghibli - a quiet forest clearing (the Aetherways)
Aeldra - the Forge of Klangratch
Silvanus - Courtyard before an elegant manor (the Aetherways)
Afollia - promenade of roses (off-continent)
Freja - north wall of the Rockeater Training Tunnels
Faragan - A Diamond Observatory (the Aetherways)
Azula - the Pool of Stars
Caleb - the Aetherplex Chamber
Xedrik - an extravagant throne room (off-continent)
Esei - before the Master Ravenwood Tree
Tikki - bend in the path
...one of these things is not like the others.

You say to Llani, "I swear to Lady Maylea, if you have prepared a bejeweled loincloth I shall endevour to leap bodily into the Matrix."
Llani finishes rummaging around in her satchel, before pulling out a formal silken loincloth with extravagant embellishments. She holds it aloft with both hands, so that all in the room - nay, the city - can admire its fantastical design.

sometimes, astral insanity can be kind of prophetic and I find it always hilarious. While trying to type a thought about how aeldra wasn't sure if any of the insanity was real...
> think ...
insanity: Shrugging your shoulders, you verbalise your cluelessness with a casual, "I don't know."
> think again
You think to yourself: Aeldra, what have you gotten yourself into with this. Are those clowns real?
A plush doll of Shashi exclaims, "If you're happy and you know it, wave your tail. If you're happy and you know it, wave your tail. If you're happy and you know it, then your tail will surely show it! If you're happy and you know it, wave your tail!" A plush doll of Shashi folds the glorious expanse of his tail feathers, only to spread them again with dramatic grace, so that the light illuminates each one at a time.

The shadowy outline of a twisted forest casts a dark gloom here. Amid metal rods leaning together here, the stones whistle with the passage of choking air. Vague darkness seethes in the distance and in the corner of the eye; a ripple passes through the area as intestines shift with writhing motions. Forms of fantastical creatures, humanoids, wild plants and cows swirl into the serpentine winds. Rocks and debris smash and batter together under draughts strong enough to strip flesh from bone.
Waving in the astral winds, a sparkleberry bush drinks up the power laden atmosphere here.
I like how cows are just kind of tossed in there for giggles.
You see @Coraline Myeras shout, "I... hate .... peep .... chili!!"
Game Night strikes again.

Beckoning with both paws, you say, "Come on, come on, whatcha got for me?"
Unscarred Naevari says, "Hrm."
Nepenthe's tail flicks around eagerly, setting his scarf bells tinkling and bapping an enormous stuffed dragon lightly with each happy wag.
Minister Faythe Myeras-Silvermoon whispers to Naevari, "Make him kiss the dragon again."
Lief hides a grin behind her hand.
Struck with amusement, you laugh brightly.
Slowly, Unscarred Naevari says, "If *I* win, you must compose and publish publicly a love letter to your husband Afrit."
A low, contented growl arises within an enormous stuffed dragon's chest.
Lief beams broadly.
Opening her mouth wide, Faythe gapes in wonder at Naevari.
You give a short gasp of elation.
You laughingly say, "I can't commit to that being a here-and-now thing because I'm liable to fall asleep any second but I don't want to reject that wager."
Unbroken Lief Myeras-Silvermoon laughingly says, "Never before have I seen someone so eager to lose this game."
You smile impishly and say, "Okay, let's see those dice."
Faythe gives a pair of ivory dice to you.
Nepenthe sets out a pair of ivory dice in front of him, displaying snake eyes. "Oh no~o~o," he moans, "I've lost!"
Sir Romaan D'Varden, Knight of the Paladins says to you, "But aren't all bugs drawn to the light?"
Lame. So lame, Romaan. Definitely didn't make me giggle for like, a solid minute.
"Chairwoman," Princess Setisoki states, holding up a hand in a gesture for her to stop and returning the cup. "That would be quite inappropriate. One of the males will serve me."

A ruby-red gummy bear glomps Afrit playfully, knocking him over in his enthusiasm.
Bouncing about in a fit of excitement, a ruby-red gummy bear boisterously bounds to the south.
You giggle happily.
Revelrous Afrit, Lazula of the Sands says, "Good."
You say, "No bear should have that much glomping power."
Afrit's eyes sparkle with amusement.
A ruby-red gummy bear bounces energetically in from the south.
Revelrous Afrit, Lazula of the Sands says, "Well, it is probably imbued with -some- divinity."
Comprehension flashes across your face.
Bouncing about in a fit of excitement, a ruby-red gummy bear boisterously bounds to the south.
Revelrous Afrit, Lazula of the Sands says, "Also seems pretty hyper."
Idly touching his fingertips to his collarbone as he observes the bear with some mild distaste, you say, "A bit."
Afrit's eyes sparkle with amusement.
You say, "Maybe Crumkane distilled his excess energy into a jelly and forged bears out of it."
Revelrous Afrit, Lazula of the Sands laughingly says, "Seems like a reasonable thing to do."
You stare blankly into space.
You laughingly say, "You're not supposed to think that's reasonable."
Afrit snorts.
Revelrous Afrit, Lazula of the Sands says, "Who can know why the Divine do what They do?"

At Mother, after Galaphyrae revives Tyrus:
Fair Galaphyrae says, "The skies darkened in the mountains and the sounds of marching on the Dwarven villages."
Jolanthe Myeras says to Tyrus, "I am not dead. Time to get back ahead."
Wodewose Tyrus says, "What brings out the dead, I ask instead?"
@{ Why is everyone rhyming. @Faythe! }
Jolanthe Myeras says, "Well, there's a ritual with the Chancel where that one dark dwarf might do it to curse her ancestors, um."
Jolanthe tugs her chin thoughtfully.
