I Am Witless she/her Posted August 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Yzabet did so, eye watering. Then she turned and grabbed Ioc by both shoulders. "What is it that you want?" Another person showed up. Storm. This. Job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetaTerminal he/him Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 “I’d like a room,” Alum said. The crowd in the Waystop appeared to be growing exponentially, and the innkeeper seemed a bit frazzled. “I have... spheres? Not sure if you’ll accept them. And use of the library.” Glancing around at the growing crowd, he continued. “If spheres aren’t acceptable I can work for you in return for a room. I’m quite organised.” He rattled the copperminds on his wrists. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Sorana she/her Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) Gladly Damaya saw that Yzabet took the crazy one over. "You asked about the spren under the table earlier." she said to Araha, without taking her eyes from Ioc and Yzabet in case something went wrong there. "I don't know as much about them as Yzabet does, but maybe I could answer a few questions. About the spren I mean. I'm not really good with the rest." She hesitated. "I just wanted to offer, because I ended our conversation so abrublty earlier. Later I mean, once everything here has calmed down a bit?"

Cyanic he/him Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 "That'd be good." Araha replied with a smile. "Thank you." Was she making a new friend? The thought excited her, but not too much so that it showed on her face. Damaya seemed to know about spren types too, more so than Araha. Maybe she could even tell her about Ran later? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Am Witless she/her Posted August 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 "Yes, I wasn't talking to you. We'll discuss payment later." She curtly said to Alum. She shook Ioc, but only a little. "What. Do. You. Want." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetaTerminal he/him Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Alum’s first reaction was to feign admonishment, perhaps even outrage. Despite his best efforts, his temper could get away from him sometimes. But instead he nodded and stepped aside. There was no point getting into a fight here, especially with someone he didn’t know, and without his combatative spikes. Alum watched the ensuing spectacle instead; one of the visitors appeared to be juggling several sharp knives, to the dismay of almost everyone else within a ten-meter proximity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gancho Libre he/him Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 "Hm...." Ioc said. "I dunno. I was just having fun. I suppose what I want is world unity," Ioc shrugged Yzabet's hands away. "Or, perhaps, a sandwich," 'Yes!' said Association Cortex. 'That's a good goal. That'll win them over!' "And don't worry," Ioc said to the gathered people, "I have another axe. It's bigger too," Ioc pulled the second axe from its purse, then continues balancing the handle on its forehead, jumping, and catching it after it's 180-degree rotation. However, this ended up hurting a lot and embedding the blade in its forehead. "Ow," Ioc said aloud. 'OW!!!!!' said Somatosensory Cortex. 'WHY DO YOU INSIST ON HURTING YOURSELF SO MUCH?' 'Stop being such a baby,' said Subconscious. 'What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, ya know,' And thus, this was how Ioc ended up standing in front of several people with a gigantic axe sticking straight up from its forehead and talking to itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sorana she/her Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Shocked Damaya stared at Ioc, at the axe sticking in his forehead and dir a moment the world seemed to freeze around her. "That's an axe. A huge, sharp axe sticking in your head, and you still stand here and talk to yourself?" She heard her voice shake and took a deep calming breath, tried to appear steady in this horror show. "What are you?" She finally asked, because that was a short, easy question. And he hadn't even tried to explain aus he was here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyanic he/him Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) Araha was surprised at the display, her fear subsided, replaced by slight concern for the man with an axeblade in his head. That concern soon faded as he seemed fine. Damaya had begun speaking though, she seemed afraid almost, and it made sense. In fact, Araha didn't know why she herself wasn't afraid, because Damaya made a good point. In the meantime, even though they weren't especially close, she put a hand on Damaya's shoulder wordlessly, to reassure her? calm her down? She didn't really know.

Cyanic he/him Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) In response, Araha just shook her head without saying anything. Edited August 28, 2018 by Warpspren 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Am Witless she/her Posted August 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Yzabet sighed. "World peace I can get behind." She took the ax handle in both hands, braced a foot against Ioc's chest, then heaved. It came out with a slurping noise. Yzabet dropped it on the ground and put her hand on Ioc's forehead. A breath of stormlight sent his head knitting back together. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gancho Libre he/him Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Ioc exhaled thankfully as Yzabet pulled the axe out. "Thanks!" Ioc said. "I have run out of stormlight, you know, pounding a hole in your floor, so healing that was gonna be hard!" 'I like this person,' said Somatosensory Cortex. Ioc paused. "Now, about that fabrial washing machine..." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ark1002 Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Atticus got out of the room quickly, so he didn't have to watch the strange man hurt himself. He dropped a coin and pushed up to the roof. Then he used his new tools he had got from the Black Crusade to make holes in it. Into these he installed the three automatic Chaos Marine and Hemalurgic Spike seeking guns. He then added Yzabet's fingerprint and eye scan to the guns as an override code. The guns had already been given an exception to the one going through his skull. He couldn't get rid of it, even if he regretted it. Then he installed the two gattlings on the roof, so they could use those in an invasion. He pushed on the earlier coin, speeding down the path. He found the sign that said "No hemalurgy" and pulled out a paint brush, adding: "If you have spikes, you will be shot. For an exception to the rule, call in advance." He pulled out Transporters lenses and teleported away again. For the next defense.

Gancho Libre he/him Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 "...it turns out I don't actually need it," Ioc finished. "I was just messing around," 'Twas a hilarious joke,' said Association Cortex. "Actually, what I need is to buy this establishment," Ioc continued. "It would really boost my financial status, and I'm sure you don't mind if I just take it. I'll assume you don't mind. Now, how much do you want it for?"

+Sorana she/her Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Damaya felt Arahas hand and her body went hard as stone while she instinktively prepared for pain. It took her a moment to realize that the woman only tried to comfort her, and she forced herself to relax. You don't know her, she told herself, be careful. You know nothing about her plans, about her character. And yet she lifted her own hand, gratefully touching Araha's fingers. It felt good not to be alone, to have someone standing next to her. And even if she had plans, there was also the possibility that this gesture was only meant to comfort. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyanic he/him Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Araha felt the other woman tense up, but then felt her fingers on her hand. She wasn't sure if she should say sorry, she was probably just surprised. For now, she patted Damaya's shoulder gently then retracted and put her hand down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sorana she/her Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) Quote @Warpspren That reminded me of a wounded pet Have fun @Witlessspren ! Damaya smiled at Araha, looked at the blood on the floor and to everyone around, talking. "I'll be right back." she excused herself and fetched a bucket of water and something to clean up. The more time the blood had to dry, the harder it would be to scrub it away. Yzabet and Pallas were both busy and she had cleaned here before, so she hoped she wasn't overstepping any borders. It didn't take her long, and she made sure to clean out the bucket and the rag carefully afterwards. She then took a piece of cloth out of her bag and dumped it in water. Pressing it, so that it wouldn't be dripping water all over the place she returned to Ioc and pushed it into his hands. "Here. For your face and your hands."

I Am Witless she/her Posted August 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Quote I briefly have wifi, so I'm gonna give an explanation for Yzabets absence. Yzabets suddenly felt nauseous. "Tag out." She muttered to Amber, then stumbled to her room. She had a private privy, luckily, though that didn't stop the embarrassment of vomiting while she had loads of guests. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
