Meg walked in and screamed as she saw his head.

she cried and fell to her knees.

crushed Kreige's head by aplying force behind her foot

'leave him alone you fucking ****' she said, she glanced over the bar and saw Mailees figting knives still there, she moved so quick and slashed Lucys face.

krieges body missted and formed behinde lucy. he struck lucyheads with his left arm and his right arm slid back into its human form. "Meg whats wrong?" his head was back in its right place

'you....she....your head on the floor' she said, she waved her arms frantically and ran to the massage room.

what the fuck

Flips back onto her feet "How unsportsman like." she grins, eyes widening insanly

Kriege quickly followed meg into the massage room. "It was just an illusion."

*hunter kept a carefull watch over the fight and Med's arrival*

hm. nosforatu. havn't seen one of those in awhile. guess that explains why he hasnt been killed yet.

'get away from me!' she said, she then waited a minute or two then stroked his cheek.

'you're so precious to me' she said softly, as she pulled him towards her with her fingers wrapped around his belt loops.

:fluffle: :fluffle: :fluffle: ;) ;) ;)

"To much to cut." (yes, still grining)

"Don't worry about me I'm fine." he grinned at her "What brings you here so early?"

*hunter kept a carefull watch over the fight and Med's arrival*

hm. nosforatu. havn't seen one of those in awhile. guess that explains why he hasnt been killed yet.

ooc: I don't think I ever refered to my character as a nosforatu. what tipped you off?

OOC: The fact that I ripped your head off and you regenerated, perhaps.

'I am up early shifting the horses to a new place' she said.

'why didn't we do anything last night? you came in early and just fell asleep, I was all ready and everything' she said smiling, pulling him so he stood in between her legs as she sat on the table.

OOC: The fact that I ripped your head off and you regenerated, perhaps.
ooc : that had a bit to do with it yes, but i've been slowly picking it up as the character developed

OOC: The fact that I ripped your head off and you regenerated, perhaps.

ooc: shut up or I'll hit you in RL

ooc: shut up or I'll hit you in RL

OOC: sweetie...calm down *hugs*

Kriege grinned. "Intrested in picking up where we left off?"

OOC: Do you want to die that badly

OOC: sweetie...calm down *hugs*

ooc: oye you sound like most of the gils I know.

'well....I don't mind' she said smiling looking up with her puppy eyes.

'just promise me, don't do that again - or...well...' she said looking down a little tear ran down her cheek.

ooc got to change locations of the computer be back in about 5 min

Cracks her back, walks out of the tavern.

sits outside.

OOC: gotta go, the horse needs doing *snoooooze* XX

*having satisfied his need to leave the room where gael still rested for a moment, he grabbed a fresh towel, ran cold water over it, the retrieved his rum and went back upstairs*

Kriege lifted meg up in his arms and took her back to her room.
ooc: Geuse its a mut point posting anymore tonight.

Yawns and streches.

ooc Your a sick man or..woman depending

ooc: I'm a girl. :p And I'm not really sick. I'm just repeating what she said, except in shocked tones as opposed to matter-of-fact. :D

EDIT: Actually, I suppose I AM sick, health-wise. But perversion? I suppose that's your personal opinion to decide on. :D

ooc:Yeah well I can't tell weather your a guy or not. I mean you could be like some pervert who goes around claiming to be a 18 year old chick but are realy a 50 year old sicko. not that you are but its kinda hard to tell with the internet.

ooc:Yeah well I can't tell weather your a guy or not. I mean you could be like some pervert who goes around claiming to be a 18 year old chick but are realy a 50 year old sicko. not that you are but its kinda hard to tell with the internet.

ooc: Hehe, I know. I always get paranoid about that. You COULD just look at the NSer profiles though: the sticky in the General forum.

OOC: Ah, the internet.

ooc: My body feels like it's going to explode. Yay, illness.

ooc what ailes you?

ooc what ailes you?

ooc: I don't know. I'm achy + congested + feeling nauseous, and whenever I think I'm actually going to be sick, I can't. It's a frustrating feeling. :headbang:

And what the heck are you doing back Diclonius?

I could ask you the same question.

ooc: Well, I'm going to get going. I've almost got Xenosaga beat.

ooc: sounds like something I caught once its called nereves. anythig you worried about?

OOC: Stress is a terrible thing

I could ask you the same question.

ooc: i think that sundays are just slow no matter what.

ooc: wow I wish I could drink a solid like that.

OOC: Forgot the from.

[Swivels around on chair]

So... hello everybody, i'm Kis... and I might seem like an odd person whom freaks out about everything, but truth be told I just haven't been to this place in a VERY VERY long time and I just don't know what to think...

[swivels]

quietly edward steps through the door fallowed by jasper.

Kriege yawned. "well this is a change of pace." he spoted edward and jasper "well if it anit the terrable twosome."

Stands up and walks out the door.

edward chuckles slightly and walks over to the bar.
jasper nods and walkes to a booth at the back of the bar," some things never change"

"I haven't seen you in a while Jasper." he grined "what have you been up to?"

he grinned," staying out of trouble, and your self?"
his brother walked over to the table with three glasses and pulled a flask out of his pocket and started to pour a red liquid in to two of the glasses," want one kirege?"

"Me? why I'm doing what I alwasy do. I drive people nuts." he grined at edward "Shure Id love some.'' he turned his atention back to jasper. "Its odd how you can hunt something for so long then become what you hunted. It feels realy weired.

oocetihneacaoysihnpitvptcctptbmicttt*: How the hell did this thread become so big???

*: Out of character even though I have not established a character as of yet since I have not posted in this very popular thread, consequentially causing this post to be my initial contribution to this thread.

jasper takes his glass and takes a sip befor answering," never happened to me in that way...but i have been hunted plenty of times, maby iam just used to it, who knows"
edwared glances at his brother and nodds as he pours kirege a glass and slides it over to him," ay, you will get use to it, but then again for us its just anoccupational hazard"

Man, you guys suck no kidding. Where the hell is tink? I demand some satisfaction!

"I think you miss under stand me. I used to hunt midians like yourself and edward. Its odd to be like you now. Nosferatu I belived someone called me."
Kriege downed the contents of the glass quickly.

sickening... i'm outta here.

[leaves]

Jasper nodded under standing," you will get use to it, just keep your head on your shoulders and you will be fine, you have been the hunter which gives you the advatage when your the hunted."

edaward broke in," we had to learn from our mistakes, and trust me i've got the marks to prove it"

Kriege looked at them. he shruged. "Life could always be worse."

"that is true" edward muttered as he swirled the liquid in his glass

Kriege reched and doubled over. a small amount of blood driped from his nose. "Damn there getting worse."

ooc:be back shortly

ooc: oki
Jasper looked at him," whats getting worse?"

"My convolsions." his breathing was ragged. "you see I am not a normal Midian. I was created through surgey and genetic minipulation."

Edwared glanced at his brother and then at kirege," why?"
jasper poured kirege another glass," drink up, the convolsions are caused by a lack of blood, like your dehydrated"

"No the convolsions are milleniums way of keeping me from living beyond a certian length as a Nosferatu... I am dieing slowly. my body is slowly killing its self even with the regenerative propereties of the parasite now assimilated into my body I am doomed to die one way or another." grins " Sucks don't it?"

edward nodds," ay that does suck"
jasper slides kirege the glass anyway

Kriege stood and began to walk out. "I must go for now but We'll brobaly see eachother later.

ooc: you going to be on later? like when you normaly are?

ooc: yep

they both nod," see you later".

*Sage walks in, putting his cigarette out in an ashtray, he puts his hands in his pockets and hums as he walks over and grabs himself a bottle of Jack Spirit*

ooc: Ciao.

*the sensation of Moya's sweet lips pressed against his own was...exhilarating...to say the least*

I guess that kinda makes this my lucky day...

*he squeezed her hand and pulled her gently onto his lap*
I suppose it does..

*she wound her arms around his torso and through his hair as the kiss became deeper*

Kriege walked in quietly. he grabbed his customery dr pepper and sat at the bar. after a moment he walked over to the the sound jack and hooked his eye pod up to it. he scrolled threw the songs then choose one at random:

(Nirvana's unpluged Lake Of Fire [Originally by The Meat Puppets])

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go to the lake of fire and fry
Won't see them again 'till the fourth of July

I knew a lady who came from Duluth
She got bit by a dog with a rabid tooth
She went to her grave just a little too soon
And she flew away howling on the yellow moon

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go down to the lake of fire and fry
Won't see them again 'till the fourth of July

Now the people cry and the people moan
And they look for a dry place to call their home
And try to find some place to rest their bones
While the angels and the devils try to make them their own

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go down to the lake of fire and fry
Won't see them again 'till the fourth of July

Kriege walked over to the bar but left the eyepod in the jack. it randomly choose another song.

Unknown Artist "Fantasy"

Fantasy
Ohh... ohh...

I think about you almost every day
My mind is made up, I need you night and day
You're my obsession but I'll wait in line
I'll pretend, until then, that I'm doing fine

I know that my feelings show
But I guess that's the way just to let you know
I need you
What else can I do

You are my fantasy
You are my energy
Baby, can't you see
That you belong to me

Edwared entered the club and made his way over to the bar for a glass of lemonaid

Kriege Looked up and Spotted edward. "So I see that the terrible twosome is now the terrible Uno."

he grinned," we can bother more people this way"

"Hm never thought of that. maybe I should have left my lower body unatached when will cut me in half... Think of the posibilities."
ooc: see page 511 to 513 for more info

he chuckled," maby, but then again, not having legs makes it rather hard to get from place to place"

ooc:oki, and thanks

"Hmmmm maybe If I flaped my arms hard enough I could fly?"

he laughed and rolled his eyes," yep iam sure that you could"

*The crow perched quietly on the bartop, eyes burning murderously.*

Kriege began to flap his arms hard. when nothing happened a set of ethrel wings sprouted and began to beat in time with his am waving. slowly he lifted of the ground. "HA I can do it!!"

Having Fun vince? *mordred walked in*

Kriege spoted the crow. "So are we the servant or the master tonight?"

he rolled his eyes and then glanced at the crow the color draining from his face.

ooc: back in a few minets

Kriege spoted the crow. "So are we the servant or the master tonight?"
*The bird tossed its head in irritation.*

Does it truly matter?

Kriege looked at Mordred. "Forgive me for having some fun. but being a "Vollenden Sie Nosferatu" has its perks."

*The bird tossed its head in irritation.*

Does it truly matter?

"Not realy but I'd like to see Miss Raven some time befor I die so I thought I'd ask."

ooc Hey vincent We got that exam tomrrow so you might wanna hit the sack soon.

*Mordred looked at his watch* Well I got to go so enjoy your self. *Exits*

"Not realy but I'd like to see Miss Raven some time befor I die so I thought I'd ask."
When she is ready, she will be returned to you.

When she is ready, she will be returned to you.

"Carefull Verfluchte Krähe. You make it sound like she belongs to me." Kriege shifted his right arm into its angel blade format irretably."Why are You here Damentod?" (Damentod=Lady death)

To you?

*There was the eerie, echoing sound of laughter, and somewhere in the distance a banshee wailed.*

No, no.. she belongs to me.

Kriege, unphazed by the horrid sound, cocked his head to one side. "To you? she belongs to no one." Kriege hissed. he removed his googel sunglasses. his eyes were no longer the venomus blue that the parasite had turned them. The Irises were now a bright crimson with black veins runnig threw them. the whites of his eyes were black now. the pupil was slitted like a snakes but had a ragged edge to them. "Sogar Tod wird sterben! "

ooc: Hello?

* Raven sighed and rolled over, some of the rose petals had become tangled in her hair. she appeard calm offering no sign of the battle that had just taken place in side of her*

OOC: I'm not gonna try to translate that..

All living things belong to me. And sooner or later, I shall come to claim them.

*The shriek gradually faded as the breeze outside died off.*

By the by.. I like the new color scheme.

"its one of the more enjoyable changes I went threw recently. but as for you owning all living things. well lets just say that even you have your limits"

Believe what you will.

*The crow almost seemed to grin, the malice in its eyes narrowing to a specific intensity. In the stone room, the heavy cloak settled over Raven's form.*

"Then I poses this challenge to you Damentod. take me now if you can." he leaned back in his chair. "I won't even resist"

* raven pulled the cloak around herself, snuggling in the warmth it provided, a faint hint of a smile crossed her face*

Kriege felt a twist in his chest like somone had squeezed his heart. Miss Raven...

"Then I poses this challenge to you Damentod. take me now if you can." he leaned back in his chair. "I won't even resist"
Gabh mo leithscéal.. I said all living things, as you pointed out..

Gabh mo leithscéal.. I said all living things, as you pointed out..

"But I can die. dosent that mean i am alive?" Krieges eyes glittered molevolently.

Kriege tryed harder to reach raven. he focoused his thoughts.Miss Raven?

"But I can die. dosent that mean i am alive?" Krieges eyes glittered molevolently.
Your current.. breed.. is outside the natural realm, and therefore one of my.. limitations.

*The bird conceded the point, but with no sense of humility. More as a peculiar statement of fact.*

"My breed? whats that supposed to mean? Just because I am a...synthetic Nosferatu you can't take me? ha ha ha this is rich." Krieges laughter was hollow and dead sounding

Synthetic or not. I have no desire to expend the effort when there are far easier targets about.

*The bird shook itself, and began preening one wing.*

"Easyer targets? what going soft mistress death?" Kriege sat there thoughtfully for a second. "Is there any way for me to see Miss raven now?"

Hn.

*The bird stopped what it was doing and faded from sight. The entire room seemed to shimmer for a moment, as she strove to get inside his head. His acceptance of this would be the only way he could have his request filled. At the end of the hallway, the "door" he had "found" before reappeared.*

If her mind is strong enough.. you can meet her there.

Kriege walked to the door. So it wasn't a dream... he turned the handel and decended the long dark flight of stairs.

* ravens eyes slowly flickered open and then closed once more causing the candles around her to flicker as well*

Kriege reached the door and tryed the handel. stuck just like befor. The memory of what Edward had said swum threw his head for a moment befor he banished it. he wrenched the door open and stepped inside.

* she lay sleeping unaware that some one had just entered the room*

Kriege walked foward and knelt besides Raven. He placed a hand gently on her shoulder. "Miss raven?"

* she opened her eyes and stared at him for a moment and blinking again. as she blinked her eyes cought the candle light and gave off an empty glimmer*

"Miss Raven Don't you reconize me?" He held his breath waiting hoping...

* slowly she moved away from him pressing her back against the stone statue. she paused and blinked this time something diferant flashed in her eyes for just amoment befor giving way to emptyness. but what it was he could not guess"

"You don't remember do you? you don't remember anything do you?" kriege stood and walked up to Raven. he staired into her eyes. Her eyes were as empty as his had been befor he had come to the club.

* i rememer she wispered as she turned away from him and drew the cloak about her self*

"what do you remember?" he placed a hand on her shoulder and turned her bac towards him.

* she shyed away from his touch and wispered, "that is not for you to know"*

He placed a hand on each of her shoulders and bent his knees so that he was looking into her eyes. "it is for me to know because I care."

* she looked at him her eyes narowing slightly," i remember what i need to servive", carefuly she shruged away from his touch*

Kriege couldn't think of anything else to do. He leaned foward and kissed raven full on the lips.

* she sighed and seemed to melt into his kiss, but then pulled away,"no"*

"No what?" kriege was getting desprate.

* she kept her eyes on the floor," you know." carefuly she moved a little bit away fom him*

Kriege was confused. "I don't know. What are you talking about?"

* she sighed angerly and looked away,"i cant....."*

Krieges head began to hurt. he walked up to raven and wraped his arms around her. "please tell me why"

* " i dont know" she hissed more angry at her self than at him*

He held her fimly lovingly to him. "I'm not going to let go untill you tell me whats happened ti you."

" i dont even know" she hissed with frustraton"

Kriege leaned his head down so that it rested on Ravens shoulder. this however left his neck very exposed. "pleases calm down."

* carefuly she reached up and lay her fingers on his neck, she could feel his pulse, hammerinmg through his vains." iam calm" she wispered"

"Good...do you remeber who I am?" whe took a deepbreath and inhaled Ravens smell. he continued to rest his head on Ravens shoulder. still leavimg his neck exposed to her.

* she closed her eyes," i know who you are"*

"Who am I?" krieges pulsed quickened as he waited for the answer.

" you are kirege" she said softly

Krieges heartbeat slowed and he smiled. "How would you feel If I kissed you again?"

" i dont know" she replyed simply and honistly, noteing the change in his pulse

Kriege lifted his head and kissed raven one more time to see how she would react.

raven sighed softly as she returned his kiss, carefuly she draped her arms around his neck.

Kriege held the kiss as long as he could but his body begn to mist and become ethral. As his body dissapeared he said one last thing. "I love you" he faded from existance in the room.

ooc: I needs to catch some sleep befor the exam so I go to go. see ya later. Ciao

she smiled softly befor laying back down and droping into a dreamless sleep.

ooc: oki, night and good luck

*hunter woke from one of his light dozes. he didnt sleep deeply anymore. he stood and check on Gael, who was still resting in the bed. he sat down next to her unconscious form and rested a hand gently on her cheek*

why can nothing ever be easy with us?

*he half-smirked to himelf, then took the damp towel from her forehead. he stood and stretched, then went downstairs. he turned on the facette behind the bar and put the towel in, letting it soak up a fresh batch of cold water. leaving the sink he went into the kitchen and rummaged through the fridge. a moment later he returned to the bar, sandwhich in hand, turned off the water and retrieved the towel. he headed back towards the stairs, cast a glance over his shoulder, sighed, then went back up to the room*

Falls asleep at her table.

Walks in, hands in his pockets whisling. Sees Lucy and makes an about face still whisleing and goes back out the door.

*Will entered the club and went about opening the bar. Saw an unknown woman sleeping at one of the tables. Made an effort not to make too much noise. Soon the aroma of the coffee perking filled the club*

*Will quietly sat on his stool by the bar, drinking his coffee while leafing through the newspaper*

*Ju staggers in... wobbling around he spins once and collapses on the floor.*

*Ju staggers in... wobbling around he spins once and collapses on the floor.*
*Looks up from paper as JuNi collapses to the floor. Goes over and sees if he's still conscious*

JuNi?

*Looks up from paper as JuNi collapses to the floor. Goes over and sees if he's still conscious*

JuNi?*snores* Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

*snores* Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
*Will picks JuNi up and deposits him on one of the couches. Goes back to his stool and pulls out his pipe, lazily sits and enjoys a smoke.*

A voice ripped through her sleeping, previously quieted mind. It tore through the stone corridors, the words, "MOMMY! MOMMY!" riding the soundwaves. Panic dripped from the center of each letter, fear echoing from the back of the child's throat.

Noire jerked awake on the cold, stone floor of her dream. The shrieks rose in volume, and were now composed of utter terror. Tip-tapping small feet clattered through the corridors, faintly and at a great distance. Scrambling to her feet, Noire wildy looked left and right and all around for an exit, but none seemed available. Dragging herself across the cobbled floor to the walls, she began scrabbling at the stones with her fingernails, dark sparks emitting from her hands at every scrape. Realizing her efforts were futile, she spun and searched the walls of the room once more, only to find that a door had been next to her all along. Reaching for the brassy doorknob, she left a brilliantly red handprint on the dream-door, and looking down in a trance-like state, noticed that her mangled hands and missing fingernails were soaking the floor.

"MOMMY!" This time, the word sounded with despair, and Noire shuddered, stopping in her tracks as strong, tendoned arms enveloped her. She felt him rest his chin on her shoulder, leaning into her head, hair scratching the back of her ear.

"Why do you even care, Noire? Why do you care that this insignificant, young human being can't seem to find its mother? You've never seen the child. It's certainly not yours. It's not mine. It's not ours. It doesn't exist. He never was. You realize this, correct?" Noire turned to face him, pale eyes blankly watching him with a recognition. Her lips opened, and her voice fell from her throat. "What child?"

He nodded, and held her close again. "Nothing, Noire-love. Nothing." She didn't react promptly, but then relaxed and slid her arms comfortably around his waist. "Okay." But somewhere deep inside her, the memory of having another, tiny heartbeat nudged her uncomfortably.

She woke suddenly in the quiet; flames flickered sleepily at the stone heart as Noire watched them. I feel like I've dreamed. I've forgotton something I shouldn't have...

The unsettling feeling remained in the dregs of her mind, and she awkwardly rose to her feet, noticing Will and offering an unsure wave, affected by the unknown, roiling memory. Her eyes widened in surprise at the sight of Ju, but she refrained from rushing to him as he seemed to be asleep. Noire opted instead to step gently by him and seated herself quietly at the counter.

She materialized a vodka bottle from the dark flame sparking at her fingertips, and frowned at the scrape marks all along her knuckles and fingers. Now... how did I get those? I haven't had a job in ages...

ooc: Ju! Haven't seen you around in ages! :fluffle:

*Will picks JuNi up and deposits him on one of the couches. Goes back to his stool and pulls out his pipe, lazily sits and enjoys a smoke.*
*a sheet of crumpled paper, (Like a torn page) falls from his gloved hand and onto the floor.*

A voice ripped through her sleeping, previously quieted mind. It tore through the stone corridors, the words, "MOMMY! MOMMY!" riding the soundwaves. Panic dripped from the center of each letter, fear echoing from the back of the child's throat.

Noire jerked awake on the cold, stone floor of her dream. The shrieks rose in volume, and were now composed of utter terror.

The unsettling feeling remained in the dregs of her mind, and she awkwardly rose to her feet, noticing Will and offering an unsure wave, affected by the unknown, roiling memory. Her eyes widened in surprise at the sight of Ju, but she refrained from rushing to him as he seemed to be asleep. Noire opted instead to step gently by him and seated herself quietly at the counter.

She materialized a vodka bottle from the dark flame sparking at her fingertips, and frowned at the scrape marks all along her knuckles and fingers. Now... how did I get those? I haven't had a job in ages...

ooc: Ju! Haven't seen you around in ages! :fluffle:

*removes pipe from his mouth*

you've had quite a sleep.

*eyes notice a crumpled paper that must have fallen from JuNi when he was moved*

ooc: Ju! Haven't seen you around in ages! :fluffle:[/size]OOC: Been very... very busy... :(

*removes pipe from his mouth*

you've had quite a sleep.

Noire nodded. "Nice, though, to get all that in." She grinned up at him, but still left her vodka untouched. "My last job wore me out... the more sleep I can grab at once, the better."

OOC: Been very... very busy... :(

ooc: Don't I know the feeling! I haven't been around here often, either... school blocked Jolt forums, so I can't go on at school, and then I have work after school + homework and babysitting and all that fun stuff. Generally when I come here, it's the weekend, and I've only had time to drop by for some ooc conversation.

Speaking of which, Fallen Dead's character is annoying.

Help me do a keg stand. I'll give you druged candy.

No comment about kriege's character. he's interesting to watch... and appears to be attempting a story of his own.

Noire nodded. "Nice, though, to get all that in." She grinned up at him, but still left her vodka untouched. "My last job wore me out... the more sleep I can grab at once, the better."
*nods in agreement. points with pipe at paper on floor.*

now here's a dilemma. Do we retrieve the paper and stick it back into his pocket unread? or do we retireve it and read it? or do we just let it lay there and see what happens next?

OOC: Works got me at 70+ hrs... a week. :(

ooc: Holy hell. I'd cry.

I wouldn't mind Kriege's character so much if he wasn't so intent on god-moding. A lot.

The story he's working on and the background of his character aren't uninteresting, I'll give him that.

OOC: yes, but he's such a pain in the ass!

Noire looked at the paper, then chuckled. "Personally, as a woman, I want to read it. But since it's Ju... I don't know. It doesn't feel right. I don't think."

Her eyes focused on the paper, glowing faintly. "But... unless he dropped it meaning to give it to us?"

OOC: yes, but he's such a pain in the ass!

ooc: Hehe, that ties in with the god-moding and the provoking of every other character in the room. XD

Pretty much why Noire lit him on fire. It wasn't an attempt at his death, just kind of something to do for entertainment. :p

*smiles broadly*

yes, we could rationalize looking at it that way!

*goes over and picks up scrap of paper. Brings it back to the bar and unfolds it so they both can read it*

OOC- provoked me last week to the point I had to shoot him. Just had to. Ran out of words, warnings, and hints and gave him what he was begging for. Not that it did any good and kind of wierded out some of the other folks in the room.

*smiles broadly*

*goes over and picks up scrap of paper. Brings it back to the bar and unfolds it so they both can read it**The page is stained with blood. The letterings are unfamiliar and the pictures on the page tug at your memories...*

OOC: Brb.

*looks at Noire*

these markings make any sense to you?

ooc: lol, I read that. I found it highly amusing.


I also found it highly irritating that it had no effect upon said aggravation.

*looks at Noire*

these markings make any sense to you?

The markings tugged at her mind, and her eyes tuned out faintly. "It... reminds me of something.

I just can't remember what."

The unsettling feeling remained, swirling at the back of her mind.

ooc: lol, I read that. I found it highly amusing.


I also found it highly irritating that it had no effect upon said aggravation.
OOC- what really irks me is now he's whining about everyone trying to kill him, when he brings it on himself...alas..but enough of other people's foibles.

*Will folds paper back up and tucks it in JuNi's shirt pocket*

We can let him know it's there when he wakes up.

OOC- what really irks me is now he's whining about everyone trying to kill him, when he brings it on himself...alas..but enough of other people's foibles.

ooc: Aye, there's the rub.

*Will folds paper back up and tucks it in JuNi's shirt pocket*

We can let him know it's there when he wakes up.


She nodded, eyes still clouded slightly. Pushing a slight smile to her face, Noire added, "What's been new with you? Any new important, new happenings around here lately?"

ooc: Eating tomato and garlic pizza is probably not the best thing to do when you're sick. :rolleyes:

*Will folds paper back up and tucks it in JuNi's shirt pocket*

We can let him know it's there when he wakes up.*As you place the page into his pocket, Ju mumbles two words... "Eldua Taluda" before drifting deeper into slumber.

OOC: zen eyes noire to see if she gets the reference.

ooc: Eating tomato and garlic pizza is probably not the best thing to do when you're sick. :rolleyes:
OOC: Depends on the illness.

She nodded, eyes still clouded slightly. Pushing a slight smile to her face, Noire added, "What's been new with you? Any new important, new happenings around here lately?"
*smiles ruefully*

well, errr, the front of the bar has been recently replaced. I haven't been in much when there's been a crowd so I'm kinda out of the loop.

Does Eldua Taluda mean anything to you?

ooc: by the by, noire, did you ever get to see the rest of Noir?

*Soundlessly, a voice needled its way into Ju's subconscious.*

Good morning, starshine..

ooc: Sorry, guys, Mom needed the computer for a minute. Be right back; gotta get something finished.

Noire chuckled. "You can always expect something to be destroyed at least once a week, 'round here."

ooc: Eldua Taluda? ... I know Elda Taluda has something to do with an anime. But...? [lost.]

@ Ju: No, I didn't get to see the rest of Noir. BUT my dad just ordered some kind of Netflix thing, so I'll be getting the series soooon. :D [happy.]
