OOC: Do you mean GE membership? No, I joined because this debacle proved I couldn't hope to make it alone, so I picked the major alliance which suited my nations pragmatic, ruthless personality that will kick in the balls, but not stab in the back (not that I'm saying this is a description of the GE, it's just a more compatible organisation than the GFFA).

OOC: Well, that's what you said you were gonna do in one of your posts... Oh well whatever.

OOC: Felkner said that, not me. I have a very differant personality to many of my characters. Beside's, A) As far as I know I haven't been excepted yet and B)The joining won't be announced until this affair has been gone a while, because the public might not like joining the same alliance as you. Also, I hope you take my word, but I petetioned to join the GE after posting here, but before the post you mentioned, so that wasn't the governments motive, just Felkners.

OOC: Whatever. I know of things about as quick as they happen, since Psions are such useful critters, with their effectively instantaeous communication. The fun part would have come if he actually tried it, because I don't really CARE what alliance you're in. You screw with me, I'll killya anyway.

"But that's no fun..." Mike playfully cast the line in the direction of the Tidani, "No way I can get you to change your mind?"

ooc: hope you don't mind if I have a little fun

ic: Richard had been sitting down during the whole exchange and was resting his head in his right hand. With a wave of his left hand, the fishing line quickly constricted, convulsed and then took the shape of a rattlesnake.

Lord Rahl smirked. That was better.

IC:

Hmm... A rattler... THAT'S EVEN MORE FUN!!! Mike turned his cameras towards Richard, "Thanks Dick!" He then went back to waving the rattler in the Tidani's face.

Still smiling and with another wave of his hand, the rattler turned into a nice bouqet of flowers. "No worries Mike."

The SeaQuestian Captain stifled a chuckle at the playful antics of the other two.

"Flowers? Wow, looks like this is quite a love-hate relationship. Miss Lauren, you might have to step in and be best woman in this one, if that doesn't raise too many questions." Wind was in a pretty good mood, and it was quite evident. "That would probably be a first too! A marriage at an international confrence!"

"I hate you Dick. Fuckin pansy flowers... Then again..." Mike held the flowers at arm length, pointed them away from anyone else, and a gout of flame a meter long leapt from the suits arm to the bouqet. "Hereyago Dick. Flowers are more fun this way."

Wind had been eating at the time, and was hard pressed to keep it all down. He managed to swallow, and started laughing. "Oops. Miss Lauren, we may actually have to run relationship counciling. By the way, why in hellfire do you have a hand-flamer on you? I thought that this was a peaceful meeting, and that 'Violence was the last resort of the incompetant.'"

The flaming flowers were yanked from Mike's hands and spun on the floor. The shape gradually changed and became more curvacious as flaming flowers took the form of woman on fire with hair bright red. She was only about three feet tall and took a seat next to Richard.

"Touche, Mikey."

"Of course it's not a hand flamer! It's built in! Like the other 7 weapons that usually grace this wonderful toy of mine. Wanna see?"


As Mike was speaking, a portal of swirling water appeared behind Richard. "If you play with fire, you are liable to be burned Michael." He waved his hand, creating a splash of water, and dousing the flame. "And you too Richard. You are a Wizard, and you should be more responsible."

With another wave of his hand, the fire spirit was gone. "And as a wizard yourself, you should know that not all fire is consuming. A fire spirit only burns what it wishes."

"Fire consumes what it will. Playing with fire is always unwise Richard. Artifice, and other less volatile Magicks are ALWAYS safer. For example, the water I used was inert, not posessed of any self-will, or even any direction. Just a gallon of water. I am older than you can imagine Richard. Trust me in this."

"Fire can be dangerous if you do not have mastery over it. Given the right motivation and the right guidance it can be bent towards your will. The fire I conjured only had my will in it."

An icy glare finally fell over the man. "Looks are deceiving, trust me. You have heard of Wizard's Fire have you not?"

"Are you trying to INTIMIDATE ME? Boy? I have dealt with Planeswalkers, Phyrexians, maniacal students that enjoyed playing with Time, sentient artifacts, Demons, Thran, the undead, and all manner of Dragons. I am honestly not imporessed by your glare. If you grow up a bit, perhaps the proper amount of menace can be put into it instead of just petulance." Turning to Mike, "Why the hell did you ask me to come here, Teferi would have been a better choice for this! Even Urza would be better at this. I'm a teacher, not a Planeswalker."

The glare turned to a smile. "I'm pleased to see that age did not bring you such wisdom. Petty name calling and trying to justify your knowledge in this craft hardly makes you mature. Your list of accomplishments hardly impresses me. You are dismissed."

"And what have you done? You are some forty years old. I am over forty THOUSAND. When experience is called into question you simply cannot hope to compete. I have proven my theories and reasonings over and over again in the last few milennia. You are a petty man. Strutting your life away upon this mortal stage. Goddammit I'm too old to be dealing with this kind of CRAP! URZA, TEFERI! SOMEBODY THAT QUALIFIES AS A GODAMNED PLANESWALKER EXPEDITE GETTING YOUR WORTHLESS OVERPOWERED ASS OUT HERE!!!"

A pair of deep greeen eyes answer Barrins less than polite request. "Barrin... So cranky these days... Gerrard dying seems to have upset you quite a bit..."

"Freyalise. Good. You deal with him, I'm old and tired. I'm going back to Tolaria."

Richard's smile didn't fade. "Wow forty thousand. You are pretty young. Now I understand while you have such a temper. Young pups like you need your sleep."

His attention turned to Freyalise. "Someone with manners. This is more to my liking. Please sit. I would like to have an intelligent conversation for once."

Wind butted in when he saw his chance. "But intelligent conversation increases the likelyhood that you'll be understood. I for one often find that it's much more entertaining when you are not understood. That way you not only get to play with the othre side, but you can later point at the misunderstanding. If everyone understood everyone else, there'd be no need for war, and half of us would be out of a job. And I don't know about the rest of the people here, but I for one would find that prospect quite boring."

"You realize how stupid you sound telling a pair of eyes to sit, right? If not, I'm not sure we're gonna get ANYWHERE with this..." As she said that the eyes began to drift towards Richard. As they moved they began to reveal a solidifying form, definitely female, and for the moment, definitely nude, but quikly conealed by the "clothing" she wore, which resembled something from a botanists crack dream. "Put your eyes back in your heads boys."

Richard laughed. "Your power is sorely lacking if you could not see the rest of the figure. We are not getting anywhere with you still here. Whatever is going to be accomplished, is not going to happen with someone so egotistic."

Lord Rahl nodded as the woman sat down. "Is there anything that the many gentlemen here can get you?"

Richard grinned at Wind. "Even if I am having an intelligent conversation, I doubt they will understand me."

Wind chuckled at the response, watching the floating eyes with interest, chuckling all the harder as the eyes materialized. People these days are into flashy entrances, eh? Heh, 'flashy,' I'll need to remember that one.

"Touché Richard, but the problem is that others in the room can. And as for the lovely Miss Freyalise, my eyes have never been anywhere but in my head, even during your flashy entrance. I should loose them if they were to wander about like yours did for a moment there. And I imagine that would be most unfortionate, especially for a starship captain like myself. I hope you keep them on a leash, they might run away. If you'd like me to get you something, just say the word, just as Lord Rhal said. We're all friends here, after a meeting of some significance I'm told."

"You can't see what wasn't there Richard. Halucinogens are unhealthy." Freyalise honestly woif he was insane or not. "I can get anything I need for myself." To demonstrate, she formed a glass of wine out of thin air.

OOC:Sorry I havent posted, been a bit rushed... Yes, I realise this post is lame but I dont have much time now either

IC:Dozens of sweepers appeared from vaious places, mopping up the water and fixing the fire damage. "I would appreciate it if you would not destroy this ship, good wizards... Now there's a word I havent heard in a long while..."

OOC:Magic in the Protectorate died out with technology, kind of like the real world... Ive been thinking of making a MTG rp tounament, like the Cabal's arena. TG me if you like the sound of it...
