« first day (47 days earlier)      last day (1166 days later) » 

7:01 PM
@PrinceNorthLæraðr "Young noble. What do find sssooo... objectionable?"
 
@Mithical Lynn backs up a little bit. "I'd advice you stay back."
 
Valerio drums his fingers on his rapier handle. "I've never met you, I don't know how you got here, and much as I dislike this princeling over here, this is his property. Did Simon put you up to this?"
 
"Well, cap'n, looks like this is your issue. Now if you'll excuse me, I believe I may have somewhere to be..." Lynn turns his head towards the direction of the horse-hooves
 
The goblin waves a spindly green hand at Lynn's back, then turns back to the Captain. "I assssure you, Captain, I have no idea who thisss "Ssssimon" may be."
 
Tifer pokes his head out from behind Rio. "Didja say your name?"
 
7:03 PM
Valerio tries to shoo Tifer behind him. "Ti-Ti, this thing might be dangerous."
 
"The boy makesss a valid point." Blort makes another mocking, sweeping bow. "They call me Blort."
 
Overhead the galloping gets closer.
(let me know when I should interrupt with Saffra)
 
"And you have nothing to fear from me, I asssssure you... unlesss you are already dead." *sniggers*
 
"Blort," Valerio says, slowly. "Si. Well, as I said, my crew isn't trawling for fresh hires at the moment. You'd best find another captain down by the docks and try your luck."
 
The galloping is almost deafening now.
Lynn turns around. "Saffy!"
 
7:06 PM
"Pfah!" The goblin snorts. "Asss if I haven't already tried, Captain. Nobody wantssss a goblin on board. The talessss are told that you are different. It ssseemss the ssstories are not to be... heeded."
 
You see a girl, about the same age as Lynn, nimbly dismounting from her horse. She runs up to Lynn and hugs him.
"Lynn-lynn!"
 
Valerio softens a bit. "Well. I apologize, then. I didn't mean to be rude. You appeared rather... frightening. But I usually like to know my crew first..."
 
The goblin takes a step away from Lynn and the girl, closer to Valerio.
 
"...and since Simon hasn't vetted you..."
 
She looks curiously over to Valerio first, not noticing the goblin. "You have normal friends for once?"
 
7:08 PM
"But of coursssse, Captain. I will gladly speak with thisss... Ssssimon of yoursss."
 
The girl, "Saffy", jumps back, putting one protective hand in front of Lynn. "Lynn-lynn, what is that?"
She draws out her longsword
 
*bares teeth*
 
"I think that would be best..." Valerio trails off and whirls around, seeing the girl drawing her sword. "Chica, chica, calm yourself! We are having a conversation."
 
Tifer has been trying to edge away from Rio, but I assume Pirate Dad is keeping him firmly behind
 
Rio is keeping Tifer firmly behind him.
 
7:10 PM
"Oh, sorry, there's a goblin here on my friend's property looking like it's about to eat my friend, I'm not sure there' such a thing as calm right now."
"Saffy, I'm okay. I think I can, uh, protect myself," Lynn says, sheepishly.
 
"Don't be so rude, chica," Valerio says, and drops his hand from his rapier to convey he doesn't want to fight. "Goblins are perfectly rational creatures, even if they... startle me at times. Who is this, Lynn?"
 
"M'lady. Ressst asssured, I only eat people who are already dead."
 
Valerio gives Blort a look. "We'll discuss your culinary habits later."
 
Saffra doesn't look convinced but she reluctantly withdraws her sword. "Lynn, who are these people?"
Lynn takes a deep breathe. "Captain Valerio, meet Saffra. She's the... friend I told you about at the party. Saffra, meet Captain Valerio. I don't know who the heck he actually is, but seems to be some sort of a father figure to my other friend here..." he gestures at Tifer, "Tifer."
 
wave
 
7:14 PM
"Charmed," Valerio says, dryly.
 
"Ah, that's the boy you sneak into the lessons, isn't it?" Saffra gives Lynn a sly smile.
Saffra extends a hand out to Valerio. "Saffra. Nice to meet you, good captain."
She looks at him, and from what you could tell, she almost seems jealous.
"A captain, eh? Does that entail a lot of adventures?"
 
Valerio shakes it, warming up a bit. "Well, now we're off on a proper foot, my lovely señora. Si, I've sailed many seas in my day. How do you know Lynn, might I ask?"
 
She smiles, with a genuine warmness. "Lynn-Lynn and I have been friends since we were really young. We met at one of those rich, fancy, and mind-bogglingly obnoxious parties."
 
"Lynn-Lynn, eh?" Valerio gives Lynn an absolutely malicious look of delight. "How charming."
 
@Sciborg Lynn turns bright red. "Yes, that is, um, her nickname, urm, for me."
 
7:20 PM
You now have a goblin laughing at you.
 
Valerio pats Tifer's shoulder gently, clearly trying not to laugh at this new piece of information he has learned. "This is my hijo, Tifer."
 
Saffra giggles at Lynn. "You're not embarrassed, are you?" Saffra turns to Tifer. "Nice to meet you. From what I've seen, you're one heck of a magician."
 
Tifer makes a little mock-bow.
 
Lynn turns to Saffra. "You're not in any of the classes, how do you even know about Tifer?"
 
mage hand on a nearby rock to make it float to me
 
7:21 PM
Saffra smiles coyly and promptly ignores Lynn's question.
 
"Tifer is quite a talented wizard, si. I believe he also gave Lynn a thorough trouncing at chess."
 
"Oh, did he now? And just when I used to think I was the only one who could beat him." She punches Lynn in the arm. "You're getting rusty, Lynn-Lynn. It might be all that music stuff you've been working on."
 
(is Rio still keeping Tifer behind?)
 
Valerio is allowing Tifer to move now, but he's still keeping a little bit of an eye on the goblin.
Just in case.
 
Lynn rubs on the arm that was just punched. "Ow. Hey, I can still beat you."
"Mhm. Keep telling yourself that." Saffra turns her attention back to Valerio
 
7:25 PM
Blort has been watching silently, ears perked.
 
Lumra scampers out of Tifer's pocket and into his hair
 
"What's it like on the high seas, salt-sprayed mist and watching the horizon rise? Did you fight any monsters?" Saffra almost looks like she's daydreaming. She sighs. "Wat I would do for a life of adventure."
Lynn screams and jumps back while Saffra just looks at Lynn funnily.
 
Blort sniffs the air. "Isss that... a rat I sssmell?" Blort whispers.
 
"It's just a rat, Lynn-Lynn"
"Just a rat?!"
 
"Here, Lumra's nice" coaxes Lumra onto hand "See"? holds Lumra out
 
7:27 PM
"Oh, señora, there is no feeling in the world like standing on the bow of a ship, watching the waves fall and rise and smelling the salt in your hair..." Valerio trails off, seeing the rat has been produced. "Ah, your little amigo. Do not fear, Lynn, it is only a mouse."
"Or are you scared of a little rat?" He smirks.
 
"Rat, Rio. Lumra's no mouse"
 
"Of course, mijo, forgive me. She is a rat." Valerio gives Lumra's ears a little scritch.
 
Lynn straightens himself, making as much distance between himself and the rat. "I- I- am not scared of a tiny rat."
Saffra smirks. "He's totally terrified of the rat."
 
"Blort, you like rats? Lumra, do you like Blort?"
 
"Go on, Lynn, don't you want to pet her?" Valerio grins at Lynn. "She is quite friendly."
 
7:30 PM
"It mussst be sssaid that I hold a cccertain... regard... for ratsss."
 
"I'm, uh, allergic. It'll ruin my voice."
Saffra rolls her eyes. She turns back to Valerio. "I've been telling Lynn for year that we should run away. He already hates all the politics anyways. Runaway somewhere and we can go swashbuckling or save villages or... be heroes. Lynn doesn't care about all that stuff. He's boring."
 
"Lynn doesn't like to adventure?" Valerio affects an attitude of deep surprise. "Why, I would have never guessed."
 
"I gotta tell you guys, because I was going to tell Lynn this, but my parents just hired the hottest mercenary I've ever seen. Like hoo." She handwaves herself. "He's not from here, but here's like some elf. Very emo. Has a scar across his eye, and I think he's missing an entire arm? He spoke in this really weird accent though, but damn." Saffra starts listing all the soldiers her parents have hired over the years.
 
Pretty sure Lumra jumped off Tifer's hand and went over to Blort
 
@Sciborg Blort cuts in somewhat loudly. "Oh, but then Lynn issss... a fool! Who would not want to travel the world, feassssting on the bountiessss of the underbelly of the world? Gathering gold ashine, the... jingling of coinsss asss they pass from one hand to another unsssseen!"
 
7:34 PM
Lynn grunts. "I'm not the adventuring type. And Saffy, they couldn't have been that good-looking."
 
Blort caresses the rat with surprising gentleness.
 
Saffra slyly looks at Lynn. "Jealous of the knights in shining armor?"
 
"You mean to say you've never chased the kraken down in a ship missing half its guns, with your men scattered all across the deck like sardines? Living off salted rations and drips of grog?" Valerio feigns great surprise. "Why, I thought everyone lived such an exciting life."
He shakes his head. "If Lynn can't give you that, oh dear..."
 
"Hey, Rio, Lumra likes Blort"
 
Lynn startles stammering. "Jealous? What- no, I am not- well I mean, why should I - excuse me Valerio?"
 
7:37 PM
Valerio looks over at Blort petting Lumra and smiles. "Ah, I see you have made an amigo."
 
Blort bares teeth in an apparent grin.
 
@Sciborg She sighs. "I just really want to get away from this life... if I have to wear another dress I might just go crazy."
 
"Why, Lynn, I do believe Saffra has quite the heroic spirit. You could learn a thing or two from her. Perhaps you could... go on an adventure?" Valerio looks at Lynn and gives a tiny bit of a wink.
He mouths I'm trying to help.
 
Lynn turns red again. "Well, uh, Saffra, at least you look pretty in dress."
Saffra shoots him a dead glare.
"Are you saying I'm not pretty when I'm not in a dress?"
 
"But surely, Lynn, you have some kind of excitement in your life, don't you?" Valerio whacks Lynn playfully on the shoulder. "You're tough too, aren't you? Tell her about your adventures."
 
7:43 PM
Lynn starts stammering again. "No, you're always beautiful - I mean, uhm" Lynn turns bright red.
 
Valerio sighs and whispers to Tifer, "Don't say I didn't try."
 
Lynn changes the topic. "I have quite adventurous life, Captain. I got out of the house yesterday."
 
"Boy, for a noble you have quite the goblin'ssss tongue."
 
Saffra turns to Lynn, ears slightly pink
"What did you say?"
"I got out of the house yesterday. I know, amazing."
 
Valerio leans over to Blort and hisses, "After this bit of awkwardness is over, I'll bring you down to Simon and we'll talk, señor. But you must promise not to eat anyone."
 
7:46 PM
"You have my... word, Captain." *flicks tongue again*
 
Saffra waves her hand. "No, no before that. You said something about I always look pretty?"
Lynn desperately looks over to Valerio for help
 
Valerio hisses, "Tell her she looks pretty in armor, señor."
 
Tifer reclaims Lumra. "I could dunk someone in water, if that would help?"
 
"You, uh, look pretty in armor." Lynn looks away from Saffra. "And, urm, always." He looks like he wants to die.
 
"Muy bien," Valerio whispers, in his best encouraging father voice.
 
7:50 PM
Saffra laughs. "Lynn, if you like me, you could just say so." She blushes. "For someone who's literally a walking symphony, you've got a rather dull speech."
 
"Tell her, idiota," Valerio hisses. He quietly rummages in his pockets and offers Blort a handful of the caviar he stole from Lynn's party.
 
Saffra rolls her eyes. "Looks like our musician here is tongue-tied." She smirks. "I'll start. I like you. I think you're cute."
 
*accepts with a nod of thanks*
 
Lynn looks like he's about to pass out
"I, um, uh," Lynn takes a deep breath, collecting himself, "uh like you too."
Saffra rolls her eyes and punches him in the arm. "Seriously, didn't they teach you in those manner class about how NOT to make things awkward?"
Saffra turns to Tifer. "I think... Lynn-Lynn here needs to cool off a little." She winks. "Maybe some water?"
 
"That's my boy," Valerio says proudly, then is surprised at himself and backpedals. "Wait, why am I cheering you on, of all people?"
 
7:54 PM
> A sudden downpour soaks a target creature or object.
Tifer obligingly casts Drench on Lynn
I imagine a bunch of water that just poofs into existence above your head
 
Lynn jumps in surprise. "Gah!"
 
Valerio laughs uproariously. "Perfect spell for the occasion, Ti-Ti."
 
@bobble (same)
 
"Best spell ever."
 
Lynn shakes water from his head. "Ugh, this robe. My mother is going to have a fit." He glares at Tifer. "I didn't sneak you in so you can start drenching me in water."
Saffra chuckles. "Honestly, I surprised I haven't seen Lynn drenched like that more often."
 
7:56 PM
Valerio folds his arms and gives Lynn his best Dad Look. "Now, see, that wasn't so bad, señor. Talking about your feelings is good sometimes, no?"
 
Lynn groans. "Captain, no need to make things more awkward for me."
 
"Hey, the spell next to that one would dump acid all over you instead"
 
Valerio claps a hand merrily on Lynn's shoulder. "I'm afraid it wasn't getting any less awkward, señor. But well done."
 
"I can make a breeze to try an' dry you off"
 
"I can start haunting you with sounds." Lynn's voice distorts into a hideous cacophony.
Saffra jumps back. She shakes her head. "I keep forgetting you can do that."
 
7:59 PM
"The fool doesss have sssome tricksss..."
 
"It seems he does," Valerio says, good-naturedly.
He looks down at Blort. "I'm thinking I am starting to like you, señor."
 
The winds start to settle with some soothing melodies. "I have many tricks up my sleeve." Lynn smirks
 
"Your wet sleeves." giggles
 
Valerio snorts.
 
@bobble "And who's fault is that?"
 
8:03 PM
"Completely yours. I'd allow a small amount of blame of Saffra"
 
Lynn snorts
 
"Well, let's not be rude, Ti-Ti. He did do something quite brave." Valerio reaches over and playfully brushes some water off Lynn's shoulder. "Even if he's damper than a sailor dog."
 
Saffra turns back to Lynn. "Unfortunately, I think I need to head back soon." She gives Lynn a light peck on the cheek. "I'll see you later, Lynn-Lynn."
Lynn blushes and barely stammers out, "Bye, Saffy." She smiles, and jumps on her horses, before riding off the opposite way.
 
@PrinceNorthLæraðr (*her horse)
 
Valerio gives Lynn a teasing look. "Aren't you cute, Lynn-Lynn."
 
8:09 PM
Would Tifer be part of Rio's business talk with Blort?
 
Sure, Tifer can tag along on that.
 
Must Mith sleep?
 
I imagine Mith must sleep or go on a bus.
 
[actually have to sleep, so Blort has to take care of "urgent busssinesss" and will meet Rio at the ship in a few hours]
 
(good night <3)
 
8:12 PM
(:
 
Good night!
 
@Mithical ... the ship that Rio does not have?
 
shhhh
i'm assuming this takes place pre-campaign, so this happens shortly after the Thing that made Rio lose the ship. Blort will instead be recruited to the Adventure
that way there's a reason for Blort to be with us :)
 
do we know what the Adventure is?
 
@Sciborg Lynn gives Valerio a dead glance
 
8:15 PM
@bobble (not at the moment, but i figure that's a good way for Gray to do a Plot Hook)
 
Lynn sighs and sits down. "Screw you Valerio, and thank you."
 
"Screw you too, and you're welcome," Valerio says, amusedly. "I'm glad my filthy peasant self could help."
He sits down beside Lynn. "I could tell you were feeling a little inadequate. Was going to rail on you some more, but then you made me care and all."
 
Lynn smiles a little bit in gratitude.
"For a pirate, you're not half-bad."
 
Lumra is tired and has retreated back into a pocket
 
Valerio pats his shoulder. "You're not completely awful, I suppose."
 
8:26 PM
Lynn winces. "My parents are going to have a fit about this. I can just hear them now, 'YOU DID WHAT? YOU LET HER KISS YOU? YOU USELESS- DISGRACE TO OUR FAMILY NAME!'"
 
"Couldn't you just... not say anything?"
 
"That bad, huh?" Valerio grimaces. "Been there."
 
"Parents, as I hear, ain't mind readers"
 
"I s'pose so. But rumors... they travel fast around these parts."
"Maids talk, servants gossip, soldiers slander." Lynn sighs.
 
"Well, if it makes you feel better, this salty old barnacle will keep his lips sealed. And I imagine Saffra and the rest of us will, too." Valerio looks out over the riding grounds, watching the horses. "Hopefully it won't get out too quick."
 
8:28 PM
"Speaking of rumors... it might be apt to get outta here soon. Guards come around here in about... fifteen minutes I think?"
 
"Rio, want to ogle at the rich-people shops?"
 
"Sounds like my kind of afternoon." Valerio reaches out gently to take Tifer's hand. "Come along, mijo."
 
Lynn snorts. "Good luck trying to sneak into those. Those shops are sneak-proof for a reason."
"Why don't you show me around where you guys urm, reside?"
 
"Don' haf-ta sneak in, they put stuff in the windows"
 
"Fair. You guys can oggle at the rich stuff."
 
8:31 PM
Valerio raises an amused eyebrow. "What are you wanting to see my place for? Wouldn't it offend your sensibilities?"
 
@Sciborg "I'm sure I've already offended yours, you might as well return the favor."
 
"Ha. At least your tongue is working again." Valerio looks at Tifer. "Any objection to showing him around?"
 
"None. Tho' I should probably send out and alert to not steal from 'im"
 
"That would be best." Valerio looks amusedly at Lynn. "He's dressed a bit too fancy."
 
"I'll pop ahead and tell some friends that the rich kid has magic. Should keep 'em out"
 
8:34 PM
"You should tell 'em I can drive them insane just by listening to me speak."
 
Tifer disappears around a corner, leaving Rio and Lynn alone
 
"Because, well, it wouldn't be an exaggeration." Lynn's voice distorts into the hideous form as it did earlier.
 
"Don't go too far ahead, mijo, I worry," Valerio calls after Tifer. Then he gestures to Lynn to walk with him. "Veremos."
 
Lynn gets up and starts following Valerio. "Looks like you've enchanted Saffy - I mean Saffra with your stories."
 
"She seems like my kind of señora." Valerio adjusts his eyepatch a bit. "You're a lucky one."
 
8:39 PM
@bobble (*an)
 
Lynn's ears turn slightly red. "Well, I think so too." He gazes off. "I really want to give her the life she wants, but... adventuring just not really my thing. I'd rather not get eaten by a giant eagle or something."
 
"It's not for the faint of heart." Valerio shrugs. "I talk up the romance of being at sea, but there's a lot more scurvy, blood, accounting and vomiting than I like to admit. You wouldn't last a day."
 
"She really hates the noble life though. She despises that she gets all these things for free while so many suffer. She despises all the falsities and the backstabbing and the politics. She hates all the glamor and pretense - I guess that's why I like her. It's hard to find a noble that's... genuine, you know?"
 
"I can understand that. Being genuine probably isn't an asset where you come from."
 
"Biggest reason for marriage around here isn't love, it's political advantage or wealth. That's where I kind of admire her family in general - her grandmother is actually full elvish. Her grandfather decided to marry just some ordinary high elf he met in one of his trips. I don't know too much about it. Her mother's a half-elf, and she married a human, so she's naturally quarter-elven."
He smirks. "Didn't get the cool stuff like immortality, but does look slightly elvish and has a rather... forward personality. I guess that's where her love for freedom comes from, I suppose."
 
8:45 PM
"Is that why your parents don't like her?" Valerio frowns. "Because she's not pure of blood, or whatever?"
 
"Yeah, one of many reasons. My parents want me to court like my cousin or something," Lynn gags, "because apparently, incest doesn't apply when you're a noble."
"Doesn't matter that my powers are also technically unnatural, but you know, that's just how people are."
 
"Sounds like I might have underestimated what it's like being a noble. Not just napkins and frills, I suppose." Valerio itches his eyepatch again. "I imagine they wouldn't approve if you married her."
 
"Definitely not. There's a chance I could get ousted from my nobility. My mother would go absolutely crazy. My father's a bit laxer, but not by much."
 
(would Lynn have talked to Tifer about this before?)
 
(definitely)
 
8:51 PM
"If I were you, I'd just say to hell with it, cut my jib and sail away. But you sound like you're low on options, señor."
 
"It's a bit more complicated than that. Losing your nobility is... dangerous. Your literal life could be in danger - one can't just "revoke" someone's right to the throne. So without your protection... you can imagine how the other houses would jump on that idea."
"There are some nobles who live in exile, and a few who can live regular lives only by absolutely pledging that they will not claim the throne. Even those few rare ones are still watched in suspicion."
 
Valerio grimaces. "That cutthroat, eh? Well, that puts you in a bit of a pickle with a side of sea snails, as Simon would say. Not really my place to give advice on something I don't understand."
 
Lynn nodded. "I know one girl whose own father ordered her execution upon discovering she was engaged in a relationship with one of her maids."
 
Valerio gets a very haunted look on his face and doesn't reply.
 
"Another boy in my class was murdered by his younger brother just to have a closer chance at the throne. Parents didn't bat an eye because the brother was... I don't know supposed had a fling with his servant? Doesn't even matter if the servant was a male or female or if the rumor was even true."
Lynn's eyes look haunted. "This is the nightmare we live through."
"The throne is tainted with so much blood, I sometimes feel as though I can hear the literal screams of the tormented souls. The cost." Lynn shakes his head. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to trouble you with all these horror stories."
 
8:59 PM
"I did not realize your world was so cruel." Valerio places a tentative hand on his shoulder. "You should not speak of such things. Remember that you have done nothing. No man or woman has died by your sword. You did not ask to be born into such a family, nor are you to be blamed for being unable to leave its legacy."
 
Lynn faintly nods his head. "Where is Tifer? I assumed they would be back by now."
(Oh bobble~)
 
I was letting y'all talk
 
(Yes, I assume so :P)
 
Valerio looks very, very troubled. "Si. Where has he gone off to?"
 
Tifer runs up and pokes Rio from behind with a mage hand-ed stick. "Hey!"
 
9:02 PM
Valerio jumps sharply. "Ow!"
 
"Took me a bit to convince some of 'em that you're not worth the fight, Lynn"
 
"Well, I'm glad you were able to convince them, Tifer. I'm not sure much of my magic could've actually urm, harmed them."
(I think Lynn's cantrips are... Daze, Read Magic, Mage Hand, Ghost Sound, and Message. So yeah)
 
"I'm glad you're all right." Valerio does his best to gently herd Tifer near him so he won't get out of his sight again. "We've been... talking."
 
(wait, alternate favored bonus... does that mean I get an extra spell at level 1 or I can take that instead of taking the level up stuff? If I only get 4, I may need to reconsider my choices)
 
"Oh, and let's not go by the Cat's Back. Fight broke out, 'parently, over money or somethin'"
 
9:06 PM
(Lynn may need to forget mage hand O_O)
 
"Again?"
 
(look at my random bar names :D)
 
"Just sayin' what Ruh told me"
 
"Figures." Valerio puts an arm around Tifer gently.
 
9:09 PM
"So, which way's best, you think?"
 
"Well, that depends." Valerio looks back at Lynn. "Would his royal highness like to visit anywhere in particular?"
 
Lynn snorts. "Nope. Perhaps the place that'll least make it seem like I was somewhere I wasn't supposed to be."
 
"I'd say we could swing by the Rusty Anchor, but Kelvin might be there..." Valerio suddenly looks a bit nervous and smooths his hair again. "Er, where else can we go, Tifer?"
 
"You have too many exes, Rio"
 
"Well, he's not an ex, necessarily..." Valerio mumbles. "You didn't answer me."
 
9:15 PM
"Reg's? See if there are any new hot buns?"
 
"Sounds perfect." Valerio looks sheepishly at Lynn. "Do you like bakeries?"
 
"Love them. Are there any disguises I should take? I'm not sure how comfortable they would be with" Lynn gestures at his robes, "this"
 
Valerio rolls his eyes. "Just try not to call the baker a dirty peasant, and you'll be fine, señor."
 
"I have a spare change of clothes stashed near here, but you're far too big to fit 'em"
 
"Nothing we can do, I suppose."
"Should've brought some gold with me. Don't want to seem stingy with all this money lying around..."
 
9:19 PM
As they pass by the Anchor, Valerio looks at the door a bit lingeringly, then catches himself and resumes walking. "Yes, we wouldn't want you looking poor, Lynn-Lynn."
 
rolls eyes "There are people who'll let you trade in for smaller coins, if you don't mind them keeping some as payment"
 
(Trade in?)
 
(like splitting a 100 for 10s, 'cept I imagine they'd only give you 9)
 
(Ah, I see)
 
"Don't go sweating your massive wallet or anything. I'll pay for us, Mister Highness." Valerio rummages in his pockets and emerges with a handful of slightly beat-up coppers. "These should do."
 
9:22 PM
Lynn looks abashed. "I would rather not spread further rumors that a noble couldn't pay for himself."
 
"Well, pretend they're yours." Valerio drops them into his hand.
 
"Ah." Lynn shoots Valerio a look of thanks.
 
"Never thought I'd see the day I would give a nobleman money." Valerio gestures to the bakery sign. "Let's see if they have those buns you like, Ti-Ti."
 
Tifer notices someone sneaking over at the phrase "massive wallet" and frantically mimes dumping water and explosions
 
(hahahaha)
 
9:25 PM
(bwahaha)
Lynn looks over and casts ghost sounds, briefly filling the area with voices of screams and horror.
"That should do the trick, I suppose."
 
The would-be thief melts back into a crowd
 
"I don't have anything to steal anyways. Well, besides this robe." Lynn mutters
 
"Ey, Reg! Got any of the good stuff?"
 
"Probably gave the poor kid a nightmare," Valerio says, heading into the bakery. "Veremos, Ti-Ti, pick out what you like."
 
(okay, I'm gonna have to go :P)
(I'll be back later, this was a lot of fun :P)
 
9:28 PM
seeya!
 
(heh, i must make dinner :P)
 
... did we make too much backstory again
 
yes, and i support it
 
At this point maybe we should just kick Gray out and adventure by ourselves :P
 
Honestly we can just have Pathfinder RPing whenever it's not my session but we need the RP itch scratched :p
i'm enjoying the goofing around
 
9:32 PM
I enjoyed just creating a bar out of thin air and declaring people were fighting at it
 
i was attempting to imply that Kelvin was a current crush of Rio's rather than an ex :p
he thinks the bartender is cute
 
Tifer just assumes that every male-presenting person in the city is your ex :P
 
:p
Tifer: meets literally any male "Rio is this one of your exes"
angry pirate sputtering
 
if Rio had a theme song that played during his entrances, what would it be?
 
oh, absolutely "He's A Pirate"
either that or "Killer Queen"
i imagine Tifer's theme song is something from Aladdin
 
9:39 PM
I can't decide whether HP or Aladdin should get more say in theme-song choices

How's a you?
 
I am making holes in a thing for Science
 
o.O
 
Is this the thing that involves the syringe?
Or a different Science Thing?
 
Yes
I need the syringes to stand up, so I got a board with pre-drilled holes. Problem is, the holes are too small, so I have to widen them
 
11:45 PM
I thought you were answering "yes" to both questions and was a little terrified for a moment
What is the final science product that will come from this?
 
I will put things (probably books) on top of the syringes and see how that affects the volume
 
Nifty :D
 
Be careful, or I'll syringe you
shoots air at 'borg

hey hey hEY
my insurance doesn't cover replacing these because i live in america, you better watch it
 
o.o
 
i love our healthcare
 
My mom has good eye-insurance, for some reason, so I can get a new pair of prescription glasses every year for free provided I don't go crazy with style/features
 
@Sciborg i can tell
 
I'm luckily covered every year for new frames, but the actual lenses aren't covered under my current plan, so i have to baby these things like they're made of tissue paper
if i ever step on them i'm basically left to be blind for a few weeks until i can scrape up the money...
isn't america fun
 
11:58 PM
My parents scraped together money a while back to get me a back-up pair - it's an old prescription, but I wouldn't damage my eyes if something were to befall my glasses
 
Backup pairs are good, i have a backup pair of regular glasses from a few years ago i could probably use for emergencies if something horrific happened to the bifocals. but it would still mean i would have to screen read and not drive for a couple weeks
