The Nexus

Jace's Place "...you know, I am just going to take it as a compliment that you still want to do that despite me looking like this." Jace says finally. It's an image he just does not know what to think about it. "...well, maybe after I have him I can get back to my promise of getting ...

The Mound Koshal doesn't even turn to Khannie. This is an old argument to him. "That's cool, but I am not trained in any of them. I'm trained in using a sword and a gun and spraying fire at things. All of those kill monsters. Trying to use trick-shots and nonlethal attacks is a risk to you and...

Lab "I cannot answer that question because I'm pretty sure she's underage." Artie says formally. "But I mean I guess...broadly? I like myself mostly. And I like my scales. And I certainly didn't mind having my four legs. I don't think there's anything objectively better about looking...

Draco Street Bakery Rowan nods and starts wrapping everything. ”Everything’s made here, yeah. The pies are all me specifically. Pies are kind of my thing. Blueberry is my own recipe, but it doesn’t have the same vibe Apple does in this context I think.” Luckily dragons have adapted to using credit....

Jace's Place Oh gods he did it Jace actually got over her weird threshold now she'll never agree to marry a unicorn. "Well it's not really the same thing as a normal child! Ingrid said if her partner had a foal they would simply appear in a local graveyard. So mine might just...appear? When th...

Family Reunion "Um." Well that is certainly something. Rowan turns, bending all the way down to dig something out of the bottom of the case. The problem with being quite tall. He lays the item on the counter - an apple pie. "There's nothing more honest than an apple pie. And uh."...

The Mound Koshal blinks. "Yes? He planted a bomb that would have killed thousands and then aimed an unspecified necromantic spell at us that could have killed us instantly for all we knew. Was I supposed to let it hit you and check how seriously he was fighting before deciding what to use? Bes...

Temperance Teahouse Spako poofs back into his kobold shape, shaking his head and swallowing as much of his dragon pride as he can. He was trying not to just hand out his entire resume at the drop of a hat but clearly he's done the opposite and made him look like some pawn with hardly any skillset. ...

Temperance Teahouse "Well no, like I said all my dances are sword dances. Is that good enough? I don't think I could learn an entire hour-long routine in a week, no. I'm also not entirely sure I'm comfortable flying up in my full form and painting a target on my back for the rest of my life.&q...

"What's wrong with buying flowers?" Mac asks, raising an eyebrow.
"Or did you want him to give it to you instead?" he asks, wiggling those eyebrows a bit for effect.

The Mound "Your order was a bunch of murderous psychopaths, and you were planning a genocide." Koshal says flatly. Going back to his mount to get here was good, because it allowed Koshal to get all of his gear. Including the sidearm he keeps in the saddlebag which is now strapped to his l...

Family Reunion Naturally, behind the counter is a dragon. A very large dragon! Possibly the largest dragon Atya has ever seen unless she's ever met Megeshi or any other stereotypically bus-sized dragons. But those dragons weren't wearing a frilly apron and chef's hat and rocking the 'jolly town bak...

Shuttling Down Henry nods to Lia. "Well we don't have a ton of people, but that's a lot of what we do. Maria is going to go through the library, which is pretty big. I've been meaning to look through it to do research on ghostproof pants." Henry explains casually. "Well, I'm sorry yo...

Mac raises an eyebrow.
”I’m getting mixed signals here. Did you have something you wanted to talk about or not?” he asks. Patiently! But increasingly less patient.

Temperance Teahouse "Well, I mean..." Spako poofs into a bird of paradise about the size of a pigeon, with exceptionally colorful plumage and a regal air. And extremely long eyebrow feathers. "I'm very colorful like this, but not particularly threatening or entrancing." he tweet...

Incognito Golem Mina turns her head, and the can pings off of her left horn instead of her nose. She shakes her head with a snort. "Okay that one looked cooler in my head before I remembered these things are attached to my skull." It seemed that Mina has managed to at least pass THE TEST ...

Butterfly Bay

"Oh." Okay incense is fine if it's actually incense.
"That sounds fine. Though I don't think I own a drum. Well, I have an old video game set but those are fake instruments for games." It's definitely not even close to the same thing.

Lab Artie has to fight not to roll her eyes at this point. "Libra. Maybe if you didn't constantly suggest things that involve altering someone at a fundamental level, people would be more open to your ideas. It's not about how many legs I do or don't have, it's about the fact that you altered ...

Shuttling Down Well that's certainly a bunch of stuff that got thrown at Henry at once. "Oh. So is it like, any reflective surface or just mirrors specifically?" Honestly any sufficiently shiny surface can be as good as a mirror but curses are magic and intent matters to magic. He doesn't...

Mac’s expression softens and he sets down the towel.
”Okay. What would you like to chat about? I don’t have anywhere to be right now but the showers.”

Temperance Teahouse "Dragons dropping into someone's front lawn are certainly distracting. But I am a mage first and a fighter second. I mean I'm not a slouch but you're suggesting I take on an entire cult with their magical leader at once for an extended period of time. That's a lot, Ambrosia...

The Mound

Koshal rounds on the man, drawing his sword.
"In the name of Lady Message, you are under arrest. Surrender, or else we will not show restraint." he says, sounding very official with his deep minotaur voice that does hide that his age.

The Mound

Koshal nods and raises his hands. The grass grows from the ground, slightly shimmering. It's very soothing. Except to undeath and people he's particularly mad at.

the Mound Koshal eyes the bomb. He doesn’t really know what to make of these things. Let alone what it could really do if it’s all the way out here. ”Can you eat its power supply, Khannie? Or maybe if we let it rest in the grass I conjure the good energy would slowly sap out the bad?” he suggests. ...

Incognito Golem Well that clearly proves that Mina can't rely on basic force to solve this problem even if that was a pretty fast and low-power kick. Luckily, despite her size that isn't really what she specializes in. Mina immediately lowers herself, twisting as Hiep's kick approaches her and reac...

A Local Shrine The snake strikes at Jade! Its fangs leave a terrible stinging, a stain upon her skin that burns and corrupts whatever they touch. "It's literally the smallest phantom there is! Just shut up and hit it!" Ryu groans, absolutely unable to comprehend why Jade is just stopping ...

Incognito Golem Mina smiles as she tucks Sai into her belt, raising her hands. "When I'm in costume I go by Tempest." she tells the two quietly. She starts this test with a simple move to test how this is going. A kick, straight forward and not at full power. More to use her significantly...

Lab Artie politely nods and doesn't say that she already knew most of that because Jaahlyn already explained it when they met the first time. "Alright, well, that still makes it sound like there would be two me's slithering around. And yes Libra, they will find out. My manager already told me ...

Green Goo ”Well, we found some treasure.” He’s currently wearing a magic hat which is a lot. But they haven’t found a ton of things he can sleep on uh. That they can easily divide and store appropriately in a bank. Aside from the three sacks that were being carried when they met. ”You don’t suppose...

Green Goo

Rowan responds by flinging the second conjured pie at the idol! It’s pretty cool that he has a combat power now. He doesn’t have to get into close range anymore! Which might not have been as much of a problem as he thought considering he has proven surprisingly durable…
