The Nexus

Main Cabin At least it's been long enough that Khannie has already explained the unicorn thing to Sophie. At least enough to expect him to look like this. "Oh this is Kit, Khannie's baby brother. He's about two weeks old, now. Do you want to say hello, Kit?" Kit looks at Sophie and makes ...

Chateau Xilo Rowan looks at Atya with genuine sympathy. "Oh Atya. I'm sorry. Immortality against your will is rough. All that time, the humanity, wondering if you're going to be the same person in a thousand years..." he blinks, glancing between her and Simon. "Oh uh, sorry. It's um,...

A Solution Near at Hand "Is he well-to-do? I met someone like that when I first came to the Nexus. Her name was Ace. Probably still is. Had a large mansion if I recall." Jace does glance down at the floor and his hooves. "Even if I had gauntlets for my front hooves, my legs don't rea...

A Solution Near at Hand Jace glances around for a moment, but no one appears. Good. "Well, Khannie. I would certainly like to have hands when I need them. And now that I'm not carrying your brother I can actually look into it. Though I also don't know really where to start on that one." J...

A Solution Near at Hand Jace gives a wave of his horn and the counter starts to clean itself. Luckily prestidigitation can clean a 5-foot square of space in just a few seconds. "Khannie. You are a sorceress, a wizard, a magical craftswoman, a martial artist, a superhero, and somehow a mostly A...

A Solution Near at Hand At this point the door swings open and Jace returns from the Bluewood. Doing very important master-of-the-woods things and not frolicking around with his foal, no sir. Jace's giant nose picks up the smell immediately. He groans quietly and trots up the ramp to the main level...

Grand Tour "Well, I was told it was about as close to the Real Thing as was physically possible so....I dunno, it just sounded heavier-duty than I'm generally built for." Especially after that one time pain and adrenaline made his powers go haywire and he absolutely hulked out. "But ...

Butterfly Bay - on the Phone Being fair, CB couldn't see a thing, just hear and smell them, so it was pretty difficult to make out intent. "Uuuh, hairless? Eyeless? Pretty normal stuff for critters living in the dark. I was grievously out of shape at the time and had a very basic gun so I wasn...

Main Cabin There's a unicorn visiting the camp. Well, two actually. Well, actually, two more than the usual one. Jace, his mostly usual blue and silver-tinged self has business with Sophie. He still has a bit of the motherly look going on, mostly since he had his foal about a week ago. Speaking of,...

Butterfly Bay - Phone "Uh, pitch black, spooky as hell, constantly depicting all who entered it on the walls but also naked, full of ravenous beasts probably trying to kill me, and constantly trying to instruct me to shove a giant needle into my skull." He knows that he took something fro...

NomeCo Rowan gives the minion a gentle pat on the head. ”Well. That’s alright. Why don’t you take a nap? You’ll feel better once you’ve slept off that cookie.” Which is true. The cookie should only last ten minutes. In the meantime Rowan needs to go fetch his minion. Doubtless Eesha has been doing ...

Butterfly Bay - Atreyu "C'mon Atreyu, I refuse to believe that in all your years you've never had a friend who's spoken for." Unless Atreyu is some sort of werewolf homewrecker?! "And I drink plenty! I just stop before I get plastered because someone has to. Honestly I haven't gone t...

Chateau Xilo ”Hmmm. So I’d have to figure out how to be useful to them without explaining everything I can do. Tricky but I can figure something out.” He seems oblivious to Atya’s look. Atya is just going to have to get used to her brother being an adorable minion. Doing minion things like helping ...

Front Desk Today is a very normal day at the MERC HQ. Except for one thing. There’s a large black raven sitting on a perch on the front desk before anyone shows up to work that day. A very normal raven besides having two little feathers that stick up from the sides of its head. There’s a card under...

Grand Tour ”Well. I can show you the simulator room. I’ve…never actually used it. It looks really sciencey and stuff so I was always afraid I was going to turn it on and accidentally simulate a giant dragon and get blown up or something.” Is that how that works? He doesn’t know how that works. ”I’d...

Grand Tour ”Well, it sounds like it’s none of my business.” Henry replies with a shrug. Then he just moves on. ”And! Down the hall is the lab, as you can see from the sign. I can’t let you in there, though. I don’t think Miss Dorota’s work is classified or anything but it’s probably not safe to jus...

Grand Tour ”A bomb?! Who knows why that would have been there. It sounds like it was way before my time. But I’ll tell them I guess.” It occurs to him that he never asked Rein about an armory. He should have probably asked if they have ghost-blasters. ”I um. Hope you used it uh. Well.” Naku seems l...

[Incognito Golem] Eddie snorted. "You mean the Suggestions of Physics give you trouble sometimes?", then he outright laughed. "For himself? Ooooooh yeah. 'Valiant Val' they called him. Absolutely impossible levels of skill, and he would smash everything they sent at him and look good...

Entrance Hall/Grand Tour ”No no, it’s fine. Really. It’s not like this is a formal thing anyway.” Henry nods and sets off at a brisk pace. He hasn’t quite gotten out of the habit of walking fast since he used to have to keep up with people much taller than him. ”We have all of the training rooms an...

Fourth Tower Compound Jim nods. About what he would expect, even if Vax didn't answer his second question. "Alright. But I do have to ask what your price would be. If you did solve the problem and expected a payment I don't have, we're both in trouble. And also I would ask if you have a way to...

Lab Artie's look to Libra should confirm Libra's assumption that what she just said is in fact wrong. The fact that she doesn't know makes her worried. What if this artifact is unstable AND imprecise? It would be unfortunate if she fetched a horse to try to help someone who wanted to be a centaur a...

NomeCo Oh no! Lensy greedily gobbling up Rowan's obviously cursed cookie and will now suffer the consequences. The consequences in this case are that she will immediately feel exceptionally bloated, slow, unable to put up much of a fight, and other such things that you would feel if you suddenly at...

Chateau Xilo "Well, we're going to need some time to set all this up. And so I'll keep my options open." Rowan nods, as if convincing himself. "But I do care about you, Simon. And this is the least I can do after well, what I accidentally did to you. Never let anyone say that Rowan E...

Lab ”Libra the kind of animal humans are is humans.” Unless she’s talking about something more general like just any primate. ”Oh, dear. Are you sure this needs to be a thing? Where did it even come from? Anyway Skye is looking even more ophidian than I am in the face…” It’s a bit up for debate, si...

[Skybase] "Nah. Not nearly enough ink in there for that, and it doesn't really squirt like that so much as leak . But you'd be surprised how many uses there are for a marker that never, ever comes off all the way, especially in a war of information. Need to get a message to someone? Or track a...

NomeCo "You got this, Eesha! Keep doing what you're doing!" Crocs have trouble opening their mouths so Eesha seems to have stumbled onto the winning strategy. Rowan wonders if he has that issue. His snout is a little gator-like. Rowan goes up to the struggling boss-lady and presents befor...

A Local Shrine The spirits shrug again. "Well, you still have a physical body. Your clothes at least you can just change. And your hair is probably something from your own power so you'll probably figure it out eventually?" Ryu guesses. His hair of all things is not something he normally ...

Chateau Xilo Rowan responds slowly to the proposal, tapping his tail thoughtfully against the floor. "Well...I don't know anything about opening portals. But I wouldn't even really have to lie, if you think their culty nonsense would make someone like me believe they could handle someone like ...

Skybase "Oh, like an octopus escape route device? Cooool." Henry doesn't really know if that would affect ghosts either but he's sure he can get his hands on ectoplasmic ink or something. If nothing else it's kind of funny. "So these have all been tested, right? Probably on regular s...

NomeCo Rowan flinches and covers his eyes with a paw as a friggin gun fires right at him and- with a horribly funny sound makes solid impact with his gut, which immediately bounces back the projectile, likely into the shin of its user or one of the goons. Right. Rowan does that. He really has to re...
