[21:02] [Day: Saturday. Time: 3:30 p.m.] [21:03] (Oh, good. *goes off to play more Go* Wait, I'm not that Sai, dammit!) [21:03] (Sai is Sai is Sai.) [21:04] [Yesterday, MC had a final battle with Quentin, only to discover he was being controlled by Chelsea's grandfather! Unfortunately, they acted like they already suspected everything so he left figuring he didn't need to explain anything since they all ready new it anyhow!] [21:04] [They meet this fine afternoon in the clubroom. Sky's cloudy, but not rainy.] [21:04] [Session Start] [21:05] ( I thought he left because he was in a hurry and didn't remember anything anyway. ) [21:05] ( Quenting, not Chelsea's grandfather :P ) [21:05] * Shigeru sits at his usual desk, drumming his fingers. "Wonder what happened to Kaira." [21:05] * Sai sits in a chair, humming a fairly cheerful tune. [21:05] I'm sure Miyu was able to help her. [21:06] You took her to Miyu? [21:06] I thought someone did... [21:06] * Mei-Yin appears next to Shigeru, bookbag at her side. [21:06] * Mei-Yin sits down. [21:06] Yep. [21:07] We couldn't dump her in the hospital, but she was in bad shape. Only thing I could think of. [21:07] ( Shig ignores Mei. Kaira's much cuter anyhow. ) [21:07] * Shigeru blinks. "Hi Mei." He smiles a little. [21:07] (I see Brett is a Shig and Kaira fan.) [21:07] ( :P ) [21:07] ( SHig and...Kaira?!? ) [21:07] ( Eoi and Mei make a much better couple ^_^ ) [21:07] Hello, Shigeru. [21:07] * Mei-Yin smiles happily. [21:08] (What's with the X's? :P) [21:08] * Chelsea sits at one of the desks, idly carving designs into it with a dagger. [21:08] *** Eoi has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer ) [21:08] ( XXX rated thoughts. ^_~ ) [21:08] (*cracks up*) [21:08] ( Bah. Pause ) [21:08] * Shigeru twitches. [21:08] * Sai waves to Mei. [21:08] (Pausing. ^^;) [21:09] *** Sonny has joined #besm [21:10] ( Waitwaitwait. ) [21:14] *** Eoi has joined #BESM [21:14] ( yay! Unpause ) [21:14] ( Bastard computer. ) [21:14] * Shigeru blushes furiously. [21:14] * Mei-Yin blinks. [21:14] What's wrong? [21:14] Are you okay? [21:15] Shiggy, you look funny. [21:15] You're... um... [21:15] * Shigeru blushes more. [21:15] * Sai blinks and eyes Shigeru and Mei-Yin. [21:16] Is there something wrong? Do you need medical attention? [21:16] * Eoi simply stares at Mei-Yin and Shig, a small grin on his face. [21:16] * Shigeru twitches again. "Uh... no, that's fine." [21:17] * Chelsea looks up, frowns, and then goes back to defacing school property. [21:17] * Mei-Yin pouts a little. [21:18] * Sai looks at the pair curiously, then slowly smiles and nods. "Ah, that's it." [21:18] Um. [21:18] (By the way, you guys aren't immune. ^^; Shig's picking up thoughts without any intention of doing so whatsoever.) [21:19] ( Not from people with mind shield :P ) [21:19] So, gee, without Quentin, what's left of Project S? [21:19] (Sure, if they have a mind shield of five and decide to use it. ^_~) [21:19] ( People with sufficient levels of mind shield, anyway. ) [21:19] ( And Mei doesn't have hers up right now. ^_^; ) [21:20] ( Eoi on the other hand, does. Cuz he's a paranoid motherclowner. ) [21:20] Everything else? [21:20] (He has a mind shield of five?) [21:20] * Sai thinks to himself "So they finally did it." [21:20] ( /me looks this up. ) [21:20] * Shigeru blinks. "Did what?" [21:21] Huh? [21:21] * Mei-Yin blinks. [21:21] Wha? [21:21] You said something. [21:21] < Goes back to composing mediocre but humorous poems in her head. > [21:21] ( Huh. How about that. ) [21:21] No I didn't. [21:22] Sure you did. Something about how th- [21:22] Are you sure you're okay, Shig? [21:22] < Thinks of Naginatas. > [21:22] * Shigeru blinks again. Then he sweatdrops. "I... have no idea." [21:23] You're acting very strange today. [21:23] * Mei-Yin gives Shigeru a hug. "Are you sure you're okay?" [21:24] Like that's anythi- um... I don't know. [21:24] [21:25] * Mei-Yin squeezes Shig lightly. [21:25] * Mei-Yin smiles a little. [21:25] < I'm in the mood for pizza. > [21:26] I'm in the mood for pizza. [21:26] * Norii free-associates... from Shiggy, to cool drinks, to wine, to her refrigerator, to what she's doing tonight, to the DVD's that just arrived in the mail... [21:27] * Shigeru 's eyes widen at Mei's statement, and he's about to say something, then he freezes up when he catches something else... [21:27] ( Yeah, that pizza is more important :P ) [21:27] Damnit, stop being so loud! [21:27] (Yes, it is.) [21:28] * Norii blinks. [21:28] ... Uh, I wasn't really being that loud. [21:28] Wha? What's wrong? [21:28] * Mei-Yin squeezes Shigeru tightly. [21:29] Yes, you are! All of you ar- Mei, what the hell is *wrong* with you? [21:29] We aren't... uh, you're not really talking about sound, are you? [21:29] * Chelsea frowns. < Loud? Damn, they must've mucked with his mind... about as much as expected, really. > [21:29] What? Nothing's wrong with me. [21:30] You're the one who's acting strangely. [21:30] * Eoi frowns. "Are you reading our minds or somethin'?" [21:30] <...what Eoi said.> [21:30] * Shigeru jerks his head towards the thoughts, then starts cursing and tries to get to his feet. [21:30] [21:31] * Mei-Yin lets go of Shigeru reluctantly. [21:31] < Damn it Shigeru. If you're reading my mind, stop it right now. This is my head! > [21:31] [21:31] Hmm... [21:31] * Chelsea frowns. < Wonderful. Just marvelous. > [21:31] * Shigeru nearly yells, "I can't help it! It won't stop!" [21:32] Well. This isn't good. [21:32] * Mei-Yin slams her walls down to stop the outflow of thoughts. [21:32] ( Bah. This is a mess already. ) [21:32] ( It'll be okay. ) [21:33] * Shigeru breathes a sigh of relief as Mei's thoughts stop adding to the problem. [21:34] < Ok. Stop thinking about things. No thinking. Stop thinking. Lalalalalalalala...> [21:34] * Sai attempts to clear his mind as much as possible. [21:34] Just calm down and try to block out. [21:34] * Shigeru snerks. ~Eoi?~ he thinks to the priest. [21:35] Err. Yes? [21:36] I'm okay. I'm okay, Norii. Just... getting used to this, is all. Lots of thoughts. [21:36] ~Your singing sucks even in your head.~ [21:36] ... Well gee, thanks a lot. [21:37] * Shigeru grins, looking much better now that he insulted Eoi. "You're welcome." [21:37] * Mei-Yin moves up behind Shigeru and wraps her arms around him, resting her head on his shoulder. "You gonna be okay?" [21:37] ( At least he didn't call you an ugly troll. ^_^ ) [21:37] * Chelsea shrugs and changes to composing soothing piano music in her head. [21:37] * Shigeru stiffens, then nods. He doesn't seem to mind the background piano music, either. "Um... Mei?" [21:38] ( He doesn't? ) [21:38] Yes? [21:38] (Nope. Chelsea's good. :P) [21:38] We're going to have to talk. Soon, I think. [21:38] ( I'd have figured he'd start getting annoyed every time Chelsea repeated the same 3-8 notes while trying to compose :P ) [21:38] (*giggles*) [21:39] ( *snerks* ) [21:39] Really? [21:39] *** Twoflower is on IRC [21:39] * Shigeru nods. "Yeah, really. There's some stuff I want to tell you, and ask you about, and... things." [21:40] * Sai leans back in his chair and starts humming again. [21:40] * Norii noodles around with her PDA, and picks some stocks. [21:40] * Mei-Yin brightens. [21:41] ( Norii accidently picks some socks instead! ) [21:41] * Eoi decides to come up with a brand new song in his head. But not to annoy Shigeru. Really. [21:41] ( Eoi comes up with Kirby music! :P ) [21:41] * Shigeru listens to the two completely different songs clash. ~Knock it off.~ [21:41] (Sure it isn't, Eoi. :P) [21:42] <*starts thinking vaguely ecchi thoughts about Saki, then catches himself*> [21:42] We really need to figure out something to do about this. Otherwise, people are going to think you're insane. [21:42] Like that's anything new. [21:42] Yeah, well, if they say anything, we'll show them the error of their ways. [21:42] * Shigeru jerks his head towards Sai, but doesn't react much beyond that. [21:43] * Sai reddens. [21:43] * Shigeru sweatdrops. "I really don't care, Mei. They can think I'm crazy if they want." [21:43] Mei, we can't go killing people who thing Shigeru is insane. [21:43] *** Sidhe has joined #besm [21:43] [21:43] *** Sidhe has left #besm [21:44] Who said anything about killing? What do you think I am, some sort of psycho? [21:44] * Mei-Yin eyes Eoi. [21:44] I dunno. I don't think anyone thinks we're insane. Funny how nobody ever seems to think anything of us at all... [21:44] * Shigeru manages to refrain from commenting as he thinks to Sai, ~Don't worry about it. I had to learn to deal with that kind of thing when I was eleven or so.~ [21:44] < I'd say yes, but then she'd hurt me > [21:44] No, not at all. [21:45] (*laughs*) [21:45] * Mei-Yin keeps eyeing Eoi. [21:45] ~You think that makes me feel any better about it?~ [21:46] [There's a knock on the door!] [21:46] * Sai reddens further and looks like he wishes he could crawl into a hole and disappear. [21:46] * Shigeru smiles slightly. ~No, but it's hard to keep control of your thoughts, and I'm not a thought police anyway. So don't worry about it.~ [21:46] I'm not going crazy, and I'M NOT GOING TO TURN IN TO SOME PSYCHO KILLER JUST BECAUSE I KILLED A GUY WHILE WE WERE ESCAPING FROM A SECRET LAB PRISON! [21:46] ... what? [21:46] ... [21:46] * Chelsea frowns. < Oh, dear. > [21:46] ...um, so? [21:46] ( Hmm... I'd almost say Sai succeeded. It'd make for amusing plot ^_^ ) [21:47] * Eoi answers the door. [21:47] Actually, Mei, hold that thought while Eoi gets the door. [21:48] [Eoi is greeted with a loud "Nihao!" As Mei-Fang bursts into the room.] [21:48] * Mei-Yin sits down, unconsciously reaching down to finger her sword, which is sticking out of her bookbag. [21:48] [Her sister is also out in the hall.] [21:48] * Sai looks up, glad for the distraction. He's still blushing, though. [21:48] Err. Hi. [21:48] *** Kirby is now known as Mei-Fang [21:48] *** SomeGuyWhoReallyLikesGrapefrui is now known as Lei-Fang [21:48] * Shigeru doesn't seem surprised. Wonder why. Instead, he keeps trying to figure out what the hell Mei just said. [21:48] Oh, hi guys. [21:49] * Mei-Fang grins and holds up a bag. "Six orders of Pork Lo Mein, to go!" [21:49] ...oh no. [21:49] Uh, this may not be a good time, girls. [21:50] Err. [21:50] And I sure didn't order any. [21:50] * Mei-Fang shrugs. "This is the right address." [21:50] Please tell me one of you guys ordered that, or I may run out screaming. [21:50] We didn't order it. [21:50] * Shigeru keeps trying to figure out what the hell Mei just said. For someone usually on the ball, he sure is out of it. [21:50] And I know you didn't. It was from someone who said he was a friend of yours. [21:50] Fine. Leave the pois.. err, the food. [21:51] Who was it? [21:51] * Sai goes from looking embarassed to looking extremely nervous. [21:51] * Mei-Fang smiles and hides the bag behind her back. "Nope! The customer said you gotta fight for it." [21:52] ...huh? [21:52] * Shigeru groans. [21:52] I refuse to fight my food. [21:52] * Mei-Yin narrows her eyes. [21:52] He said not to give it to you unless you could beat us in combat. [21:52] Or for food I didn't order. [21:52] If this is another giant meatloaf... oh. We have to beat _you_ up. [21:52] * Mei-Fang smiles slyly, her eyes almost glinting. "And we've trained a lot since the last time." [21:53] ...and this is a request that you actually honor? What the hell kind of restaurant are you guys running? [21:53] ... You're kidding. [21:53] * Shigeru sighs. "Give it up, Mei-Fang. [21:53] * Lei-Fang hops up and down. "That's right! You won't beat us this ti-" she trips and hits the floor. "Ow!" [21:53] You okay, Lei? [21:53] A Chinese restaurant. [21:53] ( Wah. I wish Hikaru was here. He'd LOVE this. :P ) [21:53] * Lei-Fang looks up and smiles. "I'm fine." ^_^ [21:53] * Chelsea frowns and shrugs, but is laughing on the inside. [21:53] Do we really have to fight? I'd rather just pay for the food. [21:54] He said you had to fight. [21:54] And you're listening to him why, exactly? [21:54] Well, I'm not that hungry. Thanks anyway. [21:54] * Mei-Fang shrugs. "Then you don't get the food." [21:54] Well, that's kind of a bad idea - I don't have many options short of potentially lethal. [21:54] Enough, guys. Let's just take care of this. [21:54] * Mei-Fang grins at Shigeru. "Because I'm going to show how much better than you I am!" [21:54] See, I like food, but I can pay $3 (in yen!) for a couple of slices of pizza. [21:55] Better then semi-mortal combat. [21:55] * Shigeru rolls his eyes. "You don't need to show me. I already know." [21:55] * Mei-Fang shrugs. "Fine. Be that way. Let's go, Lei." [21:56] S'long. [21:56] * Shigeru blinks. [21:56] Um... guys? [21:56] * Lei-Fang gets up and follows Mei-Fang out. She only trips twice. [21:56] * Chelsea smirks. "Aww, too bad." [21:56] * Mei-Yin walks out after the girls. [21:56] Fortune cookies. [21:56] What's she doing? Hey! [21:57] ... Aw crap. [21:57] * Sai gets up and runs after Mei-Yin. [21:57] ... We just can't get a break, can we? [21:57] * Shigeru gets to his feet and grabs his walking stick. "And where the hell did Mei go?" he asks as he starts heading for the door. [21:57] Dangit. Are we sure the sword isn't still messing with her? [21:57] Yes, we're sure. And no, we can't. Come on. [21:57] [Sai loses track of Mei once he gets into the hall.] [21:57] She went after them. [21:58] * Shigeru shrugs and keeps walking. [21:58] * Eoi sighs and tries to catch up with the Two Sisters. [21:58] * Sai looks for the Fang sisters. [21:58] * Norii just follows Eoi. [21:58] [Sai hears Lei-Fang trip somewhere on the stairs] [21:58] * Sai runs in the direction of the sound. [21:58] * Chelsea sighs, gets up, and follows out. [21:58] Wait up! [21:59] They're going down the stairs. [21:59] * Shigeru goes thataway. Good thing being blind isn't all *that* much of a problem when you know the area well. ^^; [21:59] * Eoi heads after 'em. [21:59] [You catch up with them somewhere around the fourth floor.] [21:59] < How bothersome. > [22:00] * Mei-Fang stops half way down the stairs. "Huh? Change your mind?" [22:00] * Shigeru calls to the girls, "Hey!" [22:00] I guess we did. [22:00] Do we have to win to get the food, or do we just have to fight you? [22:00] What kind of question is that? [22:00] * Shigeru grins. "A serious one." [22:01] * Mei-Fang sighs, explaining it like it should be obvious. "If you don't win in a fair fight, you're obviously not worthy enough to have it." [22:01] * Norii catches up. "Aw, no, you're not actually going to do this, are you?" [22:01] No offense, but you people are completely insane. [22:02] * Shigeru tilts his head. "And how is fighting a blind, unarmed guy fair?" [22:02] * Chelsea smirks. [22:02] You've got a walking stick! Besides, you don't have to do it. Get someone who's capable. [22:03] * Sai facepalms. "I feel like I'm in some sort of bad fighting anime." [22:03] I'll fight, I guess. No fights to the death though. [22:04] Of course not. [22:04] ( ... ) [22:04] ( Bah ) [22:04] Of course not. There'd be no honor in that. [22:04] * Shigeru is reminded of Kojiro and shakes his head. [22:04] There's honor in this? [22:04] * Chelsea frowns as Eoi and Mei-Fang say that. [22:05] Sure there is! [22:05] ( Hikaru: Oh, FUCK honor already. >_< ) [22:05] (Yup. :P) [22:05] There's honor in playing this dangerous little game at all? [22:05] * Shigeru snickers as he catches a stray thought. "I wish," he murmurs to himself. [22:06] It's not a game! We're having an argument. Obviously, the best way to solve it is with a fight." [22:06] Are you SURE we can't just.. bribe you or something? [22:06] Besides, I want to fight you. My skills have improved so much that you can't possibly beat me now. [22:06] Mine too! [22:07] * Shigeru facepalms. [22:07] * Norii decides she absolutely detests these bimbos. [22:07] * Chelsea shakes her head sadly. [22:08] So...you guys've fought before, huh. [22:08] Fine. How about a difficult, contest of wits and luck. Rock, Paper, Scissors? [22:08] Nope! Martial arts battle! [22:08] * Sai looks towards the rest of the club. "And you guys won." [22:09] Isn't that the name of a game? [22:09] And a martial arts battle? Most of us aren't exactly martial artists here, even though we can fight. [22:10] * Mei-Fang humphs. "And this is Tokyo. In Hong Kong, 80% of the populace knows Kung Fu." [22:10] * Lei-Fang grins and nods. "All arguments are solved with Kung Fu! It's tradition." [22:11] That's nice. We're not in Hong Kong. [22:11] * Chelsea begins thinking of all the ways she could accidentally kill the two in a fight. [22:11] * Sai rolls his eyes. "Oh, sure. I'll just bust out my mad ninja piano skillz." [22:11] Most of us just kill. We're not in this to improve our "skills", we're here to accomplish things. Grow up, kiddies. [22:11] We can go to Hong Kong if you want, but the food will get cold. [22:12] * Chelsea blinks and turns to Sai. "You play piano?" [22:12] * Sai turns to Chelsea. "Yeah. Why?" [22:12] * Shigeru winces at Norii's statement. [22:12] (There we go. Chelsea and Sai are going to hook up. :P) [22:12] Just curious. I play piano as well, see. [22:12] ( They are? ) [22:13] (Yes. ^^) [22:13] ( Chelsea's got a man already! ) [22:13] Oh, really? Cool. [22:13] Ok. Why don't we try the mystic kung-fu art of Rock, Paper, Scissors then? [22:13] (He can run away with Saki, who will be broken hearted because Sai ran off on her.) [22:13] (*snicker*) [22:13] * Mei-Fang frowns and heads down the stairs. "Nevermind! I don't wanna do it now." [22:14] Hey, wait for me, sis! [22:14] ( Sure. That's not *too* contrived. ;P ) [22:14] * Lei-Fang runs after Mei, trips half-way down the stairs, and rolls head over heals until she hits the bottom. "Ow!" [22:14] * Shigeru grumbles and taps his way after the girls. "Hey, hey. One more question." [22:14] Hmm. Too bad. [22:14] * Sai winces. "That looked painful." [22:14] * Shigeru didn't see it, but he heard it. Ow. [22:15] * Lei-Fang gets up, rubbing her head. [22:15] * Eoi sighs. [22:15] ~You think it's giving *you* a headache.~ [22:15] * Mei-Fang ignores Shigeru. ^_^ [22:15] And I bet Mei-Yin is somewhere up ahead planning to ambush them. [22:15] ( Damn you! ) [22:16] * Shigeru is ignored, so he doesn't follow them anymore. He does look annoyed, though. Quite annoyed. [22:16] * Chelsea sighs. [22:16] ... [22:16] You know, Mei-Yin is going to hurt them. We really should stop her. [22:16] Yeah? How? [22:17] ( Actually, Mei will get one good hit in and then get her ass beat down. ) [22:17] ... Wish really hard? [22:17] ( And even the one good hit is in doubt. ) [22:17] * Chelsea sighs. "If we must." [22:18] And in all liklihood, that food contains a clue. Or a trap. Or both. [22:18] Personalized, private messages in fortune cookies. [22:18] Exactly. [22:18] That Mei-Fang is going to read as soon as she gets back to the restaurant. [22:19] Why don't we go there and wait for her? [22:19] *** DemoWC3 is now known as Demota [22:19] * Sai sighs and starts down the stairs. [22:19] Sure, and then what would happen? [22:20] * Chelsea starts down the stairs. "Because there's poenty of room between here and there?" [22:20] * Shigeru blinks as he realizes something. "Oh shit." [22:20] [Sai catches up to them just as they're about to leave the building. [22:20] Better idea. Why can't the idiot who sent the message just come to us directly? [22:20] ] [22:20] * Shigeru starts down the stairs, too. ~If they read those messages, *they* might go into something set for *us*, and get killed.~ [22:20] * Sai doesn't say anything, and just follows and watches. [22:21] Because that would make too much sense, Norii. [22:21] * Eoi sighs. [22:22] [They leave the building and head for the university's gates. No other students are around campus, at the moment.] [22:22] [This sure would be a good place for a fight.] [22:22] ( How convenient. ) [22:22] ( Isn't it? :P ) [22:22] Hey, hang on! [22:22] I don't want the world to make sense. I just want the world to stop being stupid. It's incredibly insulting when we are forced to jump though these hoops by everyone who wants to just use us. [22:22] Nope! You had your chance. [22:23] * Mei-Fang waits anyhow, though, because Lei-Fang trips. [22:23] Just want to know, what're you gonna do with the food now? [22:23] ~Stop being stupid? Ha!~ [22:23] True. [22:23] * Mei-Fang shrugs. "Eat it. We don't waste food." [22:24] Y'know, there's no friend of ours who'd send us food. Could be poisoned. [22:24] Excuse me?! [22:24] (Uh oh.) [22:24] (You insulted their cooking.) [22:24] We've found weird stuff that we got in food from you guys before. [22:24] Grandma cooked it! I think I'd _KNOW_ if it was poisoned! [22:25] Oh, so you guys wrote the personalized fortune cookies the last time, then? [22:25] ~Isn't their grandmother the one with the weird ass grocery list?~ [22:25] Actually, the customers do that themselves. [22:25] Then we slip the messages in the cookies. [22:25] I...see. [22:26] Oh, so you make a business of delivering threatening, insulting, or dangerous messages for criminals? [22:26] * Eoi sighs. [22:27] * Sai looks over his shoulder and notices Norii. [22:27] * Norii is looking *really* cross by now. [22:27] It's none of our business what they write. [22:28] That's a pretty excuse. [22:28] Which is why you were going to look at them when you got back, right? [22:28] Oh, it isn't, is it? [22:28] * Eoi heads down with the others. [22:28] * Sai grins. "You guys could get sued for that, y'know." [22:28] Huh? I would not! ... Besides, it's not like you were going to need them. [22:29] Or the person who wrote the message might become angry with you. [22:30] * Shigeru sighs. "Why don't you just hand over the messages and keep the food?" [22:30] Because he said not to. [22:30] Imagine what would happen if someone started sending out threatening messages and someone took offense. You could get in a LOT of trouble. ^_^ [22:31] That's why we have a disclaimer. [22:31] 2d6-2 [22:31] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6-2) and gets 8. [22:31] Listen, can't we just pay you for the food? [22:31] 2d6-2 [22:31] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6-2) and gets 2. [22:31] ( Better. I'll keep that one. ) [22:32] They're not going to take money, Eoi. They want their precious fight. [22:32] Funny, you guys never informed us of the legal ramifications of accepting food from you before. ^_^ [22:33] * Mei-Yin appears behind Mei-Fang and lunges forward in a two-handed imitation of Chelsea's rapier technique. [22:34] Oh, well. Here it goes. [22:34] * Sai stares. "LOOKOUT!" [22:34] * Mei-Fang shrugs. "It's the same reason you wouldn't sue the post office if... hey!" She catches Mei-Yin out of the corner of her eye and dives to the side. [22:34] * Norii twitches, and wishes she had her guns so she could pistolwhip Saii properly. [22:35] * Shigeru snaps his head up and starts switching views rapidly, going from one set of eyes to another. [22:35] * Lei-Fang blinks and draws her own blade. Or at least she tries to, but she screws up and it gets stuck half-way. [22:35] We don't want to fight god damn it. [22:35] * Mei-Fang hops to her feet. "Why you..." [22:36] Mei, what the fuck do you think you're *doing*? [22:36] Fine. [22:36] * Mei-Yin drops into a passable but VERY agressive stance. [22:36] * Mei-Fang gestures, and a gout of flame leaps towards the bag, turning it to ashes. "Happy now?" [22:36] < ... She really is psycho. > [22:36] ... [22:36] We're going home. [22:36] ... [22:37] Bye guys. Sorry about this. [22:37] Stupid little girl. [22:37] Nice work Mei-Yin. Really. [22:37] Fine. You don't want to fight, get the hell out of here. [22:37] * Mei-Fang turns to leave. "C'mon, Lei-Fang." [22:37] S'long Mei-Fang, Lei-Fang. Visit again sometime. [22:37] * Mei-Yin sheathes her sword and starts walking back to the club room. [22:37] * Lei-Fang finally managed to get her sword out, only to have to put it back in. [22:37] * Shigeru scrambles after Mei-Yin. ~What the hell is wrong with you?~ he thinks to her. [22:37] * Chelsea scowls. [22:38] * Mei-Yin doesn't recieve the message, as her walls are still solidly in place. [22:38] * Eoi sighs and walks back to the club room. < Fucking wonderful. > [22:38] * Lei-Fang shouts, "Coming." She turns the the rest of the group. "Ehehehe... Come again!" Then she runs after Mei-Fang, tripping twice before getting to the gate. [22:38] * Shigeru grits his teeth and just says it aloud, "What the hell is wrong with you, Mei?" [22:38] *** Mei-Fang is now known as Tomaeto [22:38] *** Lei-Fang is now known as Tomahto [22:38] What do you mean, what's wrong with me? [22:38] They said they wanted a fight. [22:39] You just attacked them from behind for no good reason. One of them could have died! [22:39] WE didn't. [22:39] Maybe _you_ didn't./ [22:39] But if I don't fight, I'm never going to get better. [22:40] You can practice. You don't need to fight. And BESIDES that, you could have KILLED them. [22:40] * Shigeru scowls, looks through Eoi's eyes, and grabs ahold of Mei's hand. "Come on. We have to talk." [22:40] There's a difference between fighting and stabbing someone in the back. [22:40] If you want to get better, find some way to train. [22:40] * Mei-Yin looks back at Shigeru. [22:40] * Sai walks after everyone else, frowning. [22:40] [Time: 4:00 p.m.] [22:40] ...Yeah, maybe we do. [22:41] [MC gets back to the clubroom, only to find a Kirby sitting on the desk Chelsea was defacing before.] [22:41] *** Tomaeto is now known as Kirby [22:41] ... [22:41] * Chelsea sighs and goes to pick up the Kirby. [22:41] * Shigeru pulls Mei into a corner of the room. "Drop the shields, Mei." [22:41] Oh god, again? [22:41] ( GOtta idle for a second. ) [22:41] That's better. [22:42] * Kirby smiles at Chelsea. It's one of those "Squeeze me to hear me talk!" types. [22:42] Apparently. [22:42] Why? [22:42] * Chelsea braces herself and squeezes the Kirby. [22:42] * Mei-Yin drops the shields even as she asks why. [22:42] * Sai glares at the smiling Kirby. [22:43] Isn't Seiryuu supposed to be busy? [22:43] * Shigeru catches Mei's action and thinks to her, ~So the others don't have to hear.~ [22:43] ( Back. ) [22:43] [22:43] "FBI warning: This Kirby is authorized for personal use only. Any attempt to tamper or copy the contents of this Kirby will result in a prosecution to the fullest extent of the law." [22:44] ~Fine. You want to talk aloud? I don't care.~ [22:44] So that means I can't toss it out the window? [22:44] So? There may be more Kirby-users. And he's a god - who knows what his timetable is. [22:44] I could just vaporize it. PLEASE let me vaporize it. [22:45] * Chelsea closes her eyes and sighs. "Not yet, Sai." [22:45] ( Idle for a while. ) [22:45] * Sai folds his arms. "Damn." [22:45] And depending on what it has to say, I may reserve that right for myself. [22:46] * Chelsea squeezes the Kirby again. [22:46] * Kirby says in a different voice, "Chelsea, my love! Oh, how I miss you so!" [22:46] Say what you have to say, Shigeru. [22:46] Okay. [22:47] * Chelsea frowns, and her brow furrows momentarily before squeezing the Kirby again. [22:47] * Sai turns his attention to Shigeru and Mei-Yin. [22:47] * Shigeru doesn't let go of Mei's hand and takes a deep breath, then says quietly, "First of all, I love you. Came to this conclusion a while ago, and I told you, but you didn't remember; you were possessed at the time." [22:48] * Mei-Yin blinks. [22:48] "Unfortunately, I can't get back to see you right now! It pains me so! But all I can manage is this message that my brother wanted to give you!" [22:48] * Mei-Yin glomps Shigeru and buries her head in his shoulder, squealing gleefully. [22:48] Oh, dear. [22:48] * Sai smirks a bit as he watches. [22:49] * Chelsea squeezes again. [22:49] (Nightchikins.) [22:49] * Shigeru lets her bury her head and hugs her back. [22:49] ( Night, Cham. ) [22:49] (Nightwombat. Be here tomorrow. :P) [22:49] (At eleven!) [22:49] (Or else!) [22:49] (What's tomorrow?) [22:49] (DDR and Chicago food. :9) [22:49] (Aha. Sounds fun. ^^) [22:50] "He says to go to the top right file cabinet and squeeze the Fernandez plushie you find there! It's probably very important, so you should do it right away! Until we meet again, dearest! For our love is eternal!" [22:50] *** Chamelaeon has quit IRC (Quit: My kingdom for a Chicago Dog! ) [22:50] (Damn straight.) [22:50] We have a Fernandez plushie in the filing cabinet? [22:51] We do now. [22:51] * Shigeru keeps hugging Mei back and reluctantly thinks to her, ~I'm not done yet.~ [22:51] * Chelsea makes a face and sets the Kirby plushie down on the desk. [22:51] * Mei-Yin has visions of wedding bells and rings and dresses dancing in her head as Shigeru says that. [22:51] * Sai looks over his shoulder. "A Fernandez plushie? What the hell is a Fernandez?" [22:52] * Shigeru chuckles. ~Later, okay?~ [22:52] * Mei-Yin nods a little. [22:53] ( Say, does Eoi still think Fernandez is real? ) [22:53] * Chelsea smirks. "A dark demon who eats Smorfies who lie and don't repent by drinking castor oil, if I remember correctly." [22:53] * Shigeru smiles a little. ~The other thing is that I'm worried about you. You've been acting strange, lately, and I guess this has something to do with what happened while I was... gone.~ [22:53] ...I...see. [22:53] * Chelsea goes to the filing cabinet to look for the Fernandez plushie. [22:53] ( Fernandez is real, I tell you!) [22:53] What do you mean, I'm acting strange? [22:54] * Sai returns his attention to Mei-Yin and Shigeru. [22:54] ( Hikaru: Oh god, not the castor oil! ) [22:54] [Sure enough, Chelsea finds a Fernandez plushie in the filing cabinet. In case you've forgotten, he's a cute round demon with a big grin and large eyes. With little circles for hands and feet, and tiny bat wings. He's colored black all around.] [22:54] * Shigeru says, quietly, "You're a lot more eager to fight. And... some of your thoughts... Mei, you used to be nervous about just hurting someone, and now you're thinking about *killing* them?" [22:54] *** Kirby is now known as Fernandez [22:55] They hurt you. [22:55] * Fernandez smiles at Chelsea ^_^ [22:55] I can't let them get away with that. [22:55] They don't kill me, though. I'm not dead. [22:55] And there's other ways to make sure they don't get away with it. [22:55] That's okay. [22:55] If they're dead, they can't do it again. [22:56] [22:56] * Chelsea squeezes the Fernandez plush, trying to ignore Mei and Shig. [22:56] ( Tell that to Kojiro :P ) [22:56] (And Calvin.) [22:56] * Fernandez speaks in Byakko's voice. "I've got two things to say, so listen up." [22:57] (And Andrew. And Vicki's dad.) [22:57] * Chelsea looks unimpressed, but squeezes again and listens. [22:57] * Shigeru continues, quietly, "If you take that perspective, then the only way to *really* be sure nobody can hurt me is to kill everyone. You can't do that, Mei." [22:57] "First, by the time you get this message, I'll have taken 3 cans of Dr. Pepsi from your fridge. It's really good stuff." [22:58] I'm not gonna kill everyone. [22:58] (*snerk*) [22:58] At least this one isn't copyrighted. [22:58] Just the ones who hurt you. [22:58] Or me. [22:58] ... [22:58] * Chelsea shakes her head and squeezes again. [22:59] Mei, I- I don't want you to kill anyone unless you absolutely *have* to. And... what the hell happened to you? You didn't used to think this way. [22:59] * Mei-Yin pulls away from Shigeru. [23:00] * Sai watches Mei-Yin worriedly. [23:00] "Next, all hell is going to break loose in the mortal world in a mere three days. During that time, you might want to slay that foolish demon who seeks to oppose us; he'll be waiting at Tokyo Tower. It won't matter, though. Your time is up." [23:00] * Shigeru maintains his grip on Mei's hand. "Come on, I'm trying to help. Because I care, okay? I'm worried." [23:00] What happened?! I stood and watched as you guys fought for your lives against Quention and that stupid clone and I couldn't do ANYTHING! I couldn't bring myself to even ATTACK! I'm USELESS! [23:00] * Mei-Yin pulls away and walks over to the windows. [23:01] Us... us who? [23:01] ( Back. ) [23:01] * Shigeru doesn't catch what Fernandez says as he's paying attention to Mei. "You are not! You were never useless!" [23:01] ( Sorry folks. A emergency. ) [23:01] ( ... ) [23:01] (You okay?) [23:01] * Chelsea raises an eyebrow. [23:01] ( Everything alright? ) [23:01] ( Yeah, I'm fine. ) [23:02] * Sai speaks quietly. "Not everyone has to be a warrior." [23:02] ( Yeah. The Alarm system went off. Tiny fire. Very tiny. It's out. ) [23:02] ( Yeep ) [23:02] ( Ah. Fire beign out am guud. ^^; ) [23:03] * Chelsea squeezes again, in case there's more. She begins walking back over to the defaced desk with the Kirby on it. [23:03] I couldn't do ANYTHING! I was nothing but a damsel in distress for you to rescue! I won't do it anymore! [23:03] "Whrrrr.... Click! Hehehe! I love to gloat!" [23:04] * Eoi grumbles and clutches his head. [23:04] * Chelsea shakes her head sadly and sets the Fernandez down on the desk. [23:05] Mei-Yin, this isn't a game. [23:05] This isn't a movie, a book or a story. [23:05] I'm not weak, I'm not helpless, and I'm going to use my strengths to kill anybody who threatens me! [23:05] All hell, foolish demon, Tokyo Tower. [23:05] Probably Vladimir. [23:05] To kill someone requires no strength. To leave them alive requires much more. [23:06] ( Combine them and you get All foolish Tokyo Hell Tower demons ) [23:06] I suppose that's standard enough. [23:06] * Chelsea smirks. [23:06] * Mei-Yin totally ignores Eoi. [23:06] ( Gah. BRB. ) [23:06] So... it's Byakko. Do we take his "advice"? [23:07] * Shigeru makes his way over to Mei. "You're not weak, and you're not helpless. You never were." [23:08] *** Rowenoak has joined #BESM [23:08] And remember, I was the damsel in distress last time, and Chelsea was one once, and you can't say that *she* can't fight. [23:09] And give us enough time, and I'm sure that I'll end up as one too. [23:09] ( Back. ) [23:09] At least they _could_ fight. [23:09] * Shigeru continues. "You were never there for me to rescue. I never did the rescuing, in the end. You know why? Because what I would have done to free you... would have been worse than what the others could do. There's strength in moderation." [23:09] Fighting's not such a great thing. [23:10] ( Yeah, you guys suck compared to Shig :P ) [23:11] (I'm the only soul eater here. ;P) [23:11] * Chelsea sighs. "May as well." She glances over at Shig and Mei and then has a seat in the desk, pulling a dagger out. "We should let them finish first, naturally." [23:11] ( Waaaah! -_- All I can do is shoot people! ) [23:11] ( Unless Tir McDohl shows up. ) [23:11] * Chelsea goes back to defacing the desk with pretty patterns. [23:11] (No Tir. Thank you.) [23:11] ...yes. [23:11] I'm.. really getting tired of this shit. [23:11] Let's go. [23:11] Where are we going, anyway? [23:12] * Shigeru shrugs. [23:13] ... I think you should stay here Mei. You're really starting to scare me. [23:13] * Mei-Yin glares at Eoi. [23:13] Stop it, Eoi. [23:13] That's nice, Eoi. [23:13] I'm going anyway. [23:13] I'm really worried. Maybe the exorcism didn't fully cure you. [23:14] * Sai looks at Eoi. "You guys never tried to stop me from coming along. Even when I was liable to kill one of you." [23:14] Well, okay, that would be bad. But I don't think that's the case. [23:14] * Shigeru closes his eyes for a moment, then opens them. "She's coming." [23:14] You were never cursed. As far as I know. [23:14] We're going to Tokyo Tower. And Eoi, now is not the time to be doubting one of the people who will be watching your back once we get there. [23:15] * Eoi frowns and sighs. "Fine." [23:15] * Chelsea finishes defacing the desk, puts her dagger away, stands, and heads for the door. [23:15] Let's go then. [23:15] I AM NOT TURNING INTO A PSYCHO KILLER! [23:15] * Mei-Yin storms out of the room. [23:15] * Sai sighs. "Good job, Eoi." [23:15] * Chelsea scowls again. [23:15] * Shigeru shakes his head and walks (as fast as he can without running into something) after Mei. [23:16] * Sai walks out. [23:16] Think about this. She's acting STRANGE. She's acting.. well, sort of psychotic. We're going back to the last place she had the sword. [23:16] ... [23:16] I have a bad feeling about this. Not that this will stop anyone. [23:16] * Eoi sighs and goes to get his bike. [23:17] * Shigeru thinks to Eoi as he leaves, ~She's bothered, and scared, and she's reacting badly. She needs to get through this on her own, and keeping her from helping her friends isn't going to help.~ [23:17] Well, it is disturbing, but she's not, like, fixated. [23:17] ( So, you guys wanna do it tonight, or wait for a week? ) [23:17] You're the priest, Eoi. Have a little faith. [23:17] ( I'm fine tonight, I think. ) [23:17] (Heh. Sai telling people to have faith.) [23:17] ( I'm fine tonight. ) [23:17] (I'm fine with tonight. ^^ This is fun.) [23:17] (I have Dr. Pepper. I'm golden. ^_^) [23:17] ( K ) [23:18] [Time: 5:00] [23:18] ( I have to work tomorrow. If this is going to go more than another 90 minutes... ) [23:18] [MC gets to Tokyo Tower.] [23:18] ( I'm tired, but let's give it a go. ) [23:18] ( It shouldn't, I'd hope. ) [23:18] ( Okay. ) [23:19] (Ard: Well, he HAS changed. If he hadn't, he'd be backing Mei-Yin up on the killing thing. :P) [23:19] (It's still funny. ^^) [23:20] ( ^_^ ) [23:20] [The tower is much the same as it was last time.] [23:20] (What, it's on fire? :P ) [23:20] * Shigeru taps his walking stick against the ground. "Damnit, damnit, damnit." [23:21] *** Rowenoak has quit IRC (Quit: ) [23:21] ( No, but it's big. And there. And stuff. ) [23:21] * Eoi parks his bike and locks it. He heads for the quickest way up the tower. [23:21] Can you sense anything, Shig? [23:21] Y'know, if this guy's opposing Byakko, why are we fighting him? Wouldn't we be better off letting them fight it out first? [23:22] [Eoi finds the elevators! It's as fast a way as any. [23:22] Who says we're goinbg to fight him? I was thinking we could talk. [23:22] ] [23:22] Byakko likely had the same thought, Sai. [23:22] * Shigeru darts his eyes around. "Why don't we find out what's going on first? Would he really want to kill his kid and grandkid?" He sounds almost amused. [23:22] Good point. Since we didn't talk the last time. [23:23] * Chelsea chuckles as Shig says that. [23:23] We haven't committed to anything yet. I'd just like to know for sure who's showing up here. [23:23] He's a freaking demon. Why wouldn't he? [23:23] Because we might be more use to him alive. [23:24] *** JexIdol has joined #BESM [23:24] I don't know what you think, but Dad put a shitload of effort into me and Chelsea. Where's the elevator? [23:24] *** JexIdol has left #BESM [23:24] This way, Shig. [23:24] (And this'll be the only time you catch Shigeru saying, "I don't know what you think." Savor it. ;P) [23:24] * Mei-Yin calls the elevator. [23:24] * Shigeru doesn't know which way is this way. ^^; [23:25] * Sai groans, and mutters to himself. "This was so much easier when it was just one incarnation of good against one incarnation of evil..." [23:25] Oh, but that was then. This is Mystery Club. [23:25] [The elevator arrives after several seconds.] [23:25] * Eoi hops in. [23:25] * Sai heads for the elevator. [23:26] * Mei-Yin hops in and pushes the button for the top. [23:26] Top floor? [23:26] * Shigeru is lead into the elevator, hopefully. ^^; [23:26] * Sai gets in. [23:26] * Chelsea leads Shigeru to the elevator. [23:27] [The elevator goes up, and up, and up! It stops at the top floor.] [23:28] * Sai gets out, looking around warily. [23:28] * Mei-Yin steps out silently. [23:29] * Chelsea steps out, leading Shig out. [23:29] Top floor! Demons, adventure, vertigo! [23:30] * Shigeru is led out. ~We might've walked in on a couple. Not sure what kind, and I can't tell what they're thinking, but they sure have a lot of...~ He coughs mentally. [23:30] * Mei-Yin draws her sword and moves along the walls, silent and eerily hard to notice. [23:30] [Not far away, the group spies Vlad, along with two women they don't recognize. On the floor in between them lies Shigeru, in the center of a pentagram painted with his own blood.] [23:30] ... [23:30] *** Fernandez is now known as Vladimir [23:30] Well. That's pleasent. [23:30] ... [23:30] ...damn, that's nasty. [23:31] * Chelsea draws her sword and dagger and moves towards them, not really bothering to be silent or stealthy. [23:31] That's a waste of a perfectly good S-Type. [23:31] * Vladimir looks up when Eoi speaks. [23:31] * Shigeru peeks through Chelsea's eyes, then pales. "Damn, I'll never get used to that." [23:31] Well, hello. Nice day for a ritual sacrifice, wouldn't you say? [23:31] ~Why the hell do I need to be the one that dies over and over again?~ [23:32] ~... Dad's blocking me.~ [23:32] * Vladimir looks to one of the women at his side and whispers something. She nods and grins. [23:32] ~Because the rest of us don't have a lot of spare bodies lying around?~ [23:33] * Mei-Yin just continues moving forward. [23:33] ~No matter.~ [23:33] Chelsea, dear. I'd like to introduce you to Natasha. She could have been your 5th generation aunt, once. [23:34] * Sai chants quietly, forming his barrier. [23:34] I'm sure she'll handle the pleasantries. If you live, which I'm sure you probably will, I'll introduce you to this other lovely tomorrow. [23:34] Until then! [23:34] * Vladimir winks out with the other woman. [23:34] *** Vladimir is now known as Natasha [23:35] I don't suppose we can talk about this? [23:35] * Chelsea forms her barrier as well. She nods to Natasha. "I'm sure I'm as as happy to meet you as you are to meet me." [23:35] Charmed. [23:35] ( Roll init ) [23:35] * Norii has drawn, both guns. Too bad she only has blessed ammo for her old one. [23:35] d6+6 [23:35] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Shigeru (d6+6) and gets 7. [23:35] Quite. Be on your guard, now. [23:35] d6+4 [23:35] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (d6+4) and gets 5. [23:35] d6+7 [23:35] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (d6+7) and gets 10. [23:35] d6+7 [23:35] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (d6+7) and gets 10. [23:35] d6+6 [23:35] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (d6+6) and gets 10. [23:35] d6+7 [23:35] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (d6+7) and gets 13. [23:36] [Eoi, Natasha, Norii, Chelsea, Sai, Shigeru, Mei-Yin] [23:36] [Eoi's turn] [23:37] * Eoi does diddly-nothing. (Hold Action) [23:38] * Natasha smiles. Then splits in half down the middle! A black being with bat wings and a metallic-ish skin carves its way out of the human flesh, covered in blood. [23:38] Lovely. [23:38] [Norii's turn] [23:39] ( Hold on 30 sec ) [23:39] * Sai looks a little ill. "I've uh, seen worse. Really." [23:39] ( Sorry ) [23:40] ...um. Gee. I don't suppose you're going to be friendly? [23:40] * Norii decides not to wait for an answer. [23:40] * Shigeru doesn't seem too fazed, even though he is looking through people's eyes. Seeing yourself die over and over again, often to the hands of your friends, probably has something to do with it. [23:40] Both guns are out, and she's blasting away. [23:41] ( Gah. Been narrating too much Z. ) [23:41] (Yes, you have.) [23:41] ( first roll is the big gun, the second is the little toy. ) [23:42] ( See? In Hong Kong, violence IS the solution to everything :P ) [23:42] ( Well duh... ) [23:42] 2 2d6-2 [23:42] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (2 2d6-2) and gets 2 6. [23:43] *** Demota has quit IRC (Ping timeout ) [23:44] [Norii's faithful gun strikes the thing in the shoulder, though the bullet only seems to penetrate part way. Meanwhile, the creature is able to use what's left of the human skin to catch the other.] [23:44] [Chelsea's turn] [23:45] * Chelsea dashes in and thrusts at dear auntie with her rapier. [23:45] 2d6-6 [23:45] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6-6) and gets -1. [23:46] [Though the apparent hardness of Natasha's skin causes Chelsea's attack to glance to the side, she still scores a powerful hit.[ [23:47] [Sai's turn] [23:47] * Sai raises his hands and aims them at the demon. "Soul Burst!" [23:47] 2d6-2 [23:47] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (2d6-2) and gets 5. [23:49] [Sai's magic is similarly affected. The hardness of her skin seems to absorb some of the blast. She notably reacts to it, however.] [23:49] [Shiggy's turn] [23:50] * Shigeru scowls at her reaction to things and thrusts his hand towards her, trying to claw his way into her mind. [23:50] 2d6-3 [23:50] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Shigeru (2d6-3) and gets 4. [23:51] [Mei's turn] [23:51] *** Demota has joined #BESM [23:51] *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Demota [23:52] * Mei-Yin works her way past that fight towards the main demon, Vladiwhatshisname. [23:52] (Vlad vanished. ^^;) [23:52] ( Er... He's gone. ) [23:52] ( *blinkblink* He is? ) [23:52] ( How the hell did I miss that? ) [23:53] ( Okay. Sure. ) [23:53] * Mei-Yin works her way around that fight to get behind this demon girlie. [23:53] [Eoi's turn] [23:54] * Eoi tries to smack the demon upside the head with the butt of his Naginata. [23:54] 2d6-5 [23:54] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (2d6-5) and gets -2. [23:54] ( Yep. ) [23:54] ( Called shot by the way. ) [23:55] [Eoi hits, but it's hard skin absorbs most of the impact.] [23:55] [Natasha's turn] [23:56] * Shigeru catches what Eoi did through his eyes. ~Eoi, you're not going to hurt it at all that way.~ [23:56] < What should I do then? Kill her? > [23:57] * Natasha fully extends her wings. They're black, and metallic. The would be feathers seem awfully sharp. Are they really? Chelsea and Eoi will each get an opportunity to find out if they don't make melee defense rolls.] [23:57] 2d6-4 [23:57] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6-4) and gets 2. [23:57] 2d6-4 [23:57] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (2d6-4) and gets 3. [23:58] ( Made it. ) [23:58] [Lucky them, they don't get to find out, quickly dodgin out of the way instead.] [23:59] [Norii's turn] [23:59] * Norii lowers the smaller gun and carefully sights in on the demon's brainpan. (called shot) [23:59] 2d6-2 [23:59] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (2d6-2) and gets 7. [00:00] * Natasha folds her wings in front of her face, and the bullet *ping*s harmlessly off. [00:00] [Chelsea's turn] [00:00] * Norii blinks. [00:01] * Chelsea attacks Natasha again. [00:01] 2d6-6 [00:01] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6-6) and gets 1. [00:01] Chelsea hits, and most of the impact gets through. Natasha's deffinately feeling that. [00:02] [Sai's turn] [00:04] (Oops.) [00:04] * Sai fires again. "Soul Burst!" [00:04] 2d6-2 [00:04] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (2d6-2) and gets 7. [00:05] (That's the first time I've missed in quite a while. ^^;) [00:05] [Sai's Soul Burst flies just to the side of Natasha] [00:05] [Shigeru's turn] [00:06] * Shigeru seems oblivious to all the combat as he keeps clawing at Natasha's mind. [00:06] 2d6-3 [00:06] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Shigeru (2d6-3) and gets 4. [00:06] [Mei's turn] [00:07] * Mei-Yin approaches from behind this winged monstrosity and swings with a nasty overhead slice, hoping to come down between the wing joints. [00:07] 2d6-2 [00:07] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6-2) and gets 4. [00:07] ( Whaddaya know, I hit. ) [00:07] ( W00t! ) [00:08] [Surprisingly, Mei hits. Her sword cuts through Natasha's metallic skin effortlessly.] [00:08] [Eoi's turn] [00:09] * Eoi tries another headbutt. [00:09] 2d6-5 [00:09] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (2d6-5) and gets 6. [00:09] ( Made it. ) [00:09] (Thanks, now I'm thinking of Eoi as a goat.) [00:10] ( Stubborn, ugly, and not too bright? ^_~ ) [00:10] (Yes. ^_~) [00:10] (And he eats anything.) [00:10] ( I wonder if he gives milk. ) [00:11] ( ... ) [00:11] (Well, now that he's a she...) [00:11] [Much the same story as last time. :P] [00:11] [Natasha's turn] [00:11] ( ...I refuse to think about Eoi-cheese pizza. ) [00:12] ( ... ) [00:12] (...) [00:12] ( ... ) [00:12] ( Not my fault. ) [00:12] ( [...] ) [00:12] ( Me too. Meanwhile, Mei, Chel and Eoi need melee defense rolls ) [00:12] ( It's her fault! *points at Ard* ) [00:13] 2d6-4 [00:13] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6-4) and gets 8, a CRITICAL FAILURE!!! "Sorry, I don't take bribes. No, not even chocolate. No, not kinky sex acts, either." [00:13] ( ... ) [00:13] (Eep.) [00:14] 2d6-4 [00:14] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (2d6-4) and gets 2. [00:14] ( Need I remind you that I cannot defend, as I full-attacked? ) [00:15] ( Op. So you did. ) [00:17] [All that practice Eoi did twitching paid off, and he hops backwards as this incredible dark aura suddenly forms around Natasha like a sphere. Chelsea's shield manages to absorb the attack, but it splatters and sends her flying a few feet backwards, where she lands on the ground in a thud.] [00:17] ( And Mei? ) [00:18] [Mei-Yin, meanwhile, is engulfed in the sphere. When it ends, her face is a mask of pain.] [00:18] * Mei-Yin SCREAMS. [00:18] Mei! [00:18] [Chelsea's turn] [00:19] (Does Mei destealth?) [00:19] ( Hey! ) [00:19] ( She already did. ) [00:19] ( Yup ) [00:19] ( oopse ) [00:19] [Norii's turn] [00:20] (Oh. Eheh.) [00:20] Shit! Mei-Yin! [00:20] * Norii circles away from where Chelsea lies, trying to draw the monster's attention at least momentarily. Both pistols are up again. [00:21] 2 2d6-2 [00:21] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (2 2d6-2) and gets 4 3. [00:22] [Both bullets hit, but the smaller gun barely gets any penetration.] [00:22] [Chelsea's turn] [00:22] * Chelsea scowls and gets to he feet. (And is that my whole turn, or can I do anything else while I'm at it?) [00:22] ( Hey, it was cheap! ) [00:22] ( That's about it, yeah ) [00:22] [Sai's turn] [00:22] ( Okie. ) [00:24] * Sai grits his teeth, grating out another "SOUL BURST!" [00:24] *** Demota is now known as DemoWC3 [00:24] ( .. Uh.. ) [00:24] 2d6-2 [00:24] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (2d6-2) and gets 4. [00:24] ( Did.. I miss my turn or something? ) [00:24] ( No, you tried to headbutt her. ) [00:24] [Sai hits this time; she winces at the impact.] [00:24] [Shiggy's turn] [00:25] * Shigeru 's eyes flicker, and he snarls at the woman. [00:25] 2d6-3 [00:25] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Shigeru (2d6-3) and gets 5. [00:25] [Mei's turn] [00:26] * Mei-Yin goes nuts with pain and attacks wildly. [00:26] 2d6-2 [00:26] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6-2) and gets 5. [00:26] 2d6-2 [00:26] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6-2) and gets 6. [00:26] ( Argh. ) [00:26] ( Oh well. ) [00:27] [Mei don't hit none.] [00:27] [Eoi's turn] [00:27] * Eoi follows close to his goat roots and gives another headbutt. [00:27] 2d6-5 [00:27] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (2d6-5) and gets -2. [00:29] [Same thing happens as last time :P] [00:30] [Natasha's turn] [00:30] * Natasha tries to poke Eoi and Chelsea again. They need melee def rolls. [00:31] 2d6-4 [00:31] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (2d6-4) and gets 6. [00:31] ( Nope. ) [00:31] 2d6-4 [00:31] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6-4) and gets 4. [00:31] ( Yup. ) [00:31] [Chelsea avoids the attack, but Eoi isn't so swift, and gets a large slash on his left shoulder.] [00:32] [Norii's turn] [00:32] Ggg. [00:32] * Norii eyes those nasty feathers. [00:33] Eoi, what the hell!?! Use the sword, not your skull! [00:33] 2 2d6-2 [00:33] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (2 2d6-2) and gets 2 8. [00:33] ( ... I'm not using my skull. ) [00:33] ( I'm hitting her in the head with the butt of my Naginata. ) [00:33] [Norii hits once, and misses with the other gun. Oh well, it wouldn't have done much anyhow.] [00:34] [Chelsea's turn] [00:34] * Chelsea continues scowling and attacks Natasha again. [00:34] 2d6-6 [00:34] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6-6) and gets 1. [00:34] [Chelsea cuts a big hole in her, but she's still standing] [00:34] [Sai's turn] [00:34] *** CharleSleep has quit IRC (Ping timeout ) [00:34] ( You said headbutt. Headbutt is smashing on'e head into the target. But whatever works... ) [00:35] Soul Burst! [00:35] 2d6-2 [00:35] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (2d6-2) and gets 3. [00:37] [Sai's magic slams into it, and that's enough to drop it dead.] [00:38] * Shigeru glares at the demon (despite the fact that he can't see it), and 'hits' it again to make *sure* it's dead. [00:38] * Mei-Yin falls on her knees. [00:38] Well. That's over. [00:38] Mei? [00:38] * Chelsea walks up to the demon and stabs it goodnaturedly, also to make sure it's dead. [00:39] Whew. [00:39] * Sai walks over to where Mei-Yin is. [00:39] (Can he sense Mei, ND?) [00:39] ( Right now? Yeah. She's destealthed. He can't see in her head, though. ) [00:39] (Okie.) [00:40] * Shigeru taps his way to Mei-Yin. "Mei? Are- are you okay?" [00:40] *** Tomahto has quit IRC (Quit: ) [00:40] * Mei-Yin shakes. [00:40] * Mei-Yin mumbles "'mfine." [00:40] ( I'm starting to get exausted. Are we almost done? ) [00:41] ( Sleeeeeepy. ) [00:41] * Shigeru makes it to her, reaches forward and doesn't find her, then kneels and places a hand on her shoulder. "No you're not." [00:41] jus hur' a li'l. [00:41] * Sai watches Shig and Mei again. [00:41] * Chelsea looks over to Mei-Yin and frowns worriedly. [00:41] * Shigeru lets his walking stick clatter to the floor and lightly hugs her. "Where? We can get Eoi to look at it." [00:42] * Norii goes over to see if she cab do anything for Eoi. [00:42] * Eoi walks over to Mei-Yin and Shig. "Is she.. hurt bad?" [00:42] NO! [00:42] * Mei-Yin backs away from Eoi. [00:42] ... [00:42] * Shigeru almost jumps at that. "Why?" [00:42] * Mei-Yin staggers to her feet and grabs her sword. [00:42] Mei-Yin...are you really okay? [00:42] * Shigeru peeks through Sai's eyes. "Mei, what are you *doing*?" [00:43] jus need res' tha's all. [00:43] * Mei-Yin puts her sword away with exaggerated care. [00:43] Calm down. Thing'sll be all right. And let Eoi look at you; you need to get patched up. [00:43] I think you need a hospital. [00:43] Or at least some basic first aid. [00:43] * Shigeru nods. [00:44] 'll be fine. I kin han'l it. [00:44] You got sliced, too, Eoi. [00:44] It's not bad. Mei is worse. [00:45] C'mon. Let's get out of here. [00:45] * Chelsea puts her weapons away. [00:45] * Mei-Yin staggers slowly towards the elevator. [00:45] This isn't a question of whether you can handle it or not, it's a question of- fuck, Mei. Don't turn down medical help. * Sai follows Mei-Yin, frowning worriedly. ... * Chelsea heads for the elevator, too, maintaining a neutral expression. Mei-Yin, you can barely walk. Damn it, relax for a minute. 'll ban'ge it a' 'ome. Got a kit in t'kitchen. ( Cmon, let's pack it in. ) Mei-Yin, if you don't want Eoi to look at it...which I can understand...at least let someone else. 'll be FINE! * Mei-Yin GLARES at Sai. ... [00:49] * Mei-Yin gets in the elevator when it arrives and heads for home, leaning against walls for support whenever she has to stand still. [00:49] [Session End]
