The Nexus

Training Grounds

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...

Training Grounds

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…

Farm Gala seems to consider the question. "Well, I don't know. It just seems like a lot, you know?" And then she is pat on the head! Careful to avoid her horns! Gala might not even be aware she has them. "Oh. Um. I guess I made it then? I guess ice cream magic just...put milk in near...

Green Goo

Rowan awkwardly bats the tentacle away with his staff, but he feels SUPER COOL as he does so.
"You sure changed your tune fast.
I guess now it's humble pie you'll be eating." he declares with a curled smile, as he conjures a second pie to throw right in the creature's face.

Temperance Teahouse "Oh, the fort is doing great. You should visit again some time. The kids are old enough to answer your questions now. We've wisely not had any new ones." Spako slips into his usual casual tone before reigning himself back into his Mission Voice. "The House blend i...

Training Grounds

Mac blinks again.
"You sure you didn't want something?"
People don't just tackle people for no reason! There's clearly something. But Asami doesn't want to talk about it now?

Richards' Residence "I admit there was a time we almost considered slipping away one week and doing it all in secret." Jace seems like he'd be smiling if his face still could. "But that's out of the question with Kit going to need me around. We're ah, going to wait until after Kit's ...

Training Grounds Mac stands there, wiping the sweat off himself. Let's see...he's met Asami twice. Asami has always come across as clueless and a little mean but possibly not realizing it. He has...no idea what the deal is today. "Well, nice seeing you I guess?" he says with a shrug as As...

Incognito Golem "Oh don't worry, Sai spent a few hours in a garbage bag for saying that to me. We've worked it out. Mostly." She turns to Hiep. "If you just want to jump out and see if I can block a punch, well. That's annoying but I'm not going to lie and say it doesn't also sound k...

A Local Shrine "Get rid of- no! They are symbolically important! And that is also literally their purpose! They scare away animals." insists the khakkhara. And perhaps it hints at a past Ryu can no longer remember. The snake begins ascending into their impossibly to strike at Jade from ab...

Green Goo Rowan feels odd with the hat on. Almost...tingly? He starts to ask what he's supposed to do with it, but he's interrupted by Ratticus clearing his throat, sitting on the end of Rowan's staff. "Thus do I-" a Name is spoken, but the slimes present are not who are meant to hear it,...

Lab For once Artie has to agree with Libra. She has no idea what Jaahlyn just said. Artie mostly just looks confused. ”I’’m not hearing anything that says it isn’t doing what I’m afraid it’s doing. But also I have absolutely no idea what you just said. At all. Can we please drop this analogy and ju...

Fourth Tower Compound Jim does not seem impressed. ”Well, I just said that I am not attached to this plan in particular and that you were free to give me a more practical solution. So is there or is there not?” He at least attempts to have some sense of formality and softens his tone. ”And of cours...

Green Goo Rowan tosses Mariblex a Cookie of Protection! It wards against outside magical effects. Not usually useful against killer slimes but sometimes he has forethought. The dragon stands defiantly in front of Mariblex, crossing his arms. "It's overrated." he taunts. "The hat! Pas...

Draco Street Bakery That definitely seems to confuse Rowan. "Did your homeworld have that kind of tech? I didn't think you made it sound like they had the ability to make portals and that kind of complex stuff." Or maybe he was INTERCEPTED on his way to the Nexus by MAD SCIENTISTS! Hey, R...
