Thaidakar the Ghostblood he/him Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 On 1/21/2023 at 8:07 PM, Telrao said: The Clinic Telrao gasped softly as Thaidakar narrowly avoided being decapitated. She stepped forward to help, then stopped herself. He doesn't need help. She watched for a second longer. The Light shall shine. You know what to do, Little One. A voice whispered, warm and soft like the sunshine of an Autumn day. Telrao breathed deeply and quickly began to draw Aon Daa with her claw, lines in the air bursting to life, brighter than before. She finished adding the modifiers, then swiped the final line. The Aon shuddered and glowed brightly before releasing a pure beam of white light that hit the attacker's chest. 12 minutes ago, Aes Sedai said: The Clinic Rue sighed and walked out. She headed in the direction she’d seen Thaidakar go earlier. @Thaidakar the Ghostblood The Clinic Jimmy thunder was hit on the chest, or... was it Jimmy? He seemed to turn into shadows as he was blasted into the wall. An earpeircing screech emitted from the odd shadow creature. Its eyes glowed red as the illusion flashed, half disappearing. Thaidakar tilted his head, "who the storms are you?" The shadow turned, smiling, "champion..." Thaidakar's expression darkened. He kicked it in the head. He turned, noticing Rue, "oh, hey." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea what is going on, but who cares. I'll figure it out eventually. Random finally made it out of the large pit she had fallen in.

Medium he/they Posted January 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 Clinic: Calano's Room Calano turned over on his bed. He stared at the picture on his nightstand. It was of Emma. A picture of her, taken candidly by Calano a week or two before their wedding. She was caught off guard, and the picture was perfect. He smiled sadly. He rolled over again, and began to think. Where to start on the long journey ahead? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had vanished after Wizard’s story and abrupt disappearance, and she hadn’t been able to find him anywhere. A figure lay prone on the bed. Calano. Approaching carefully, to give him time to tell her to go away, she sat down on a chair beside the bed. ‘Are… are you okay?’ Such an inadequate question. None of them were. ’You don’t have to talk to me if you don’t want to, but I’m willing to listen if you do.’ Quote I hope you don’t mind Matra visiting, since she is desperately in need of a purpose right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaidakar the Ghostblood he/him Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 The Clinic: Thaidakar's Room Thaidakar walked in through the door and paused. Glowglobes hung in the air, lighting the cluttered room. Conflicting emotions ran through him as he rubbed his hand on the wood of his desk. A layer of dust stuck to his palm and he didn't bother to wipe it off. He smiled as he turned his gaze to the familiar picture, not a painting, of... No. It was a picture of a man eerily similar to him kneeling towards the view of the painting, red light pouring around him in a perfect circle. It felt like a million knives cut through his mind, numbness spreading across his arms. He cursed, trying to pull himself out of it. The man in the picture looked up, it was the handsome, evil version of him. It grinned at him with a look that felt terribly familiar. "You are mine..." it mouthed. Thaidakar stumbled back, using the desk to steady himself. His hand searched for something on his desk, he grabbed a small, circular device and slapped it onto his wrist. He put snapped the two sides together and then moved it towards the painting. He smiled as he pressed a button on it. A charge of blue power launched from it, hitting the picture and turning it to dust. Thaidakar picked up his laptop and put it in the crook of his arm. He picked up a satchel from his bed and put a few books and small devices in it. THaidakar slung it over his shoulder and walked back out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calano started, and wondered where to go from there. Not because he had nothing to say, but because there was so much to say, "She was perfect. She was one of my closest friends when we were kids, and when we came here, the whole situation with the Nethergrim happened." He smiles sadly. "Somehow she still forgave me for that. I didn't deserve it, and I tried hard to earn that forgiveness. I don't think I ever did earn it, but I don't think she cared." "She was everything I wasn't," He continued, "What gaps were in my soul, she filled in. And the same goes from me to her. We both helped each other through so much. She literally brought me back to life." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering he'd just spent hours crying a bit earlier, the pain Calano felt was much too expansive to truly cry it all out at once. So, for the second time that day, Calano curled up into a small, fragile ball, and cried. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea what is going on, but who cares. I'll figure it out eventually. Quote Quick and dirty since I lost the description, Wizard died, Calano died. Emma is Wizard's twin and was corrupted so she can release a dark entity of formidable power and she can corrupt other people. She has not yet free the entity, but seeks to do so. And Wizard and Calano came back before she was corrupted. They tried to help prevent it but failed. Just to let you know we've adopted a strategy to help sort the different plot lines, by underlining and bolding the area that it's in. Glad to have you back! Feel free to jump in with any plot line in the clinic you want! 2 hours ago, InfiniteInsanity said: The Dreamscape Insa's laughter died down a little as she turns to look around the room. @The Wandering Wizard The Dreamscape The room was massive, shelves lined with books. A wealth of knowledge was stored within the shelves. What drew Emma's attention was that table and the chair in the center of the room. A rich mahogony table with intricate inlays sat in the center of the room. Occupying the space behind it was a massive, royal purple, arm chair. What truely drew Emma's attention was the crystaline dragon skull on the table. It had a magnetic power, drawing her forward, until her hand rested ontop of it. @InfiniteInsanity 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
