The Nexus

Chateau Xilo Atya takes a moment to digest the information. "Well, I didn't come here by being killed by a dragon, that's for sure," she says, shaking her head in bewilderment at Simon's explanation. That's just... extremely weird. At Rowan's question, she takes a moment to sip her drink,...

Hunting Well, it's no surprise that this woman has some kind of power. What's more notable is the sandals. Those would be a very nice prize... perhaps a way to kill two birds with one stone. Pleasing Ilpholin certainly takes priority over Svartha's mission. Wait, does it? Didn't Svartha say that Se...

Outdoor Movie Place "Absolutely sure," says Darko confidently, "You could never be a bother." To be fair, it takes a lot to bother Darko- his roommate is Asami, after all. But Koko especially is the human equivalent of a golden retriever puppy, and anyone bothered by her has no ...

Aiko's Bad Day Bloodplunder Residence Darko looks around curiously. He's not actually been in many people's homes before, and his memory of his own is hazy at best. But this place seems rather cozy and inviting. A far cry from the crumbling Theatre, at any rate. The people are a little more intimid...

Dorm Bending down to sop up the rest of the milk, Darko stares in distaste at his soiled tshirt, then shrugs and tosses it into the trash. Easy come, easy go. He can just steal more clothes from the local MagMart again. Turning back to Asami, Darko stands helpless for a moment. How do you comfort s...

Hunting "Oh, thanks, that's... that's very kind of you," the man replies cheerfully, nodding in thanks, "But I'm actually looking for someone? She's an old friend of mine, I haven't seen her recently but... well, I've done a little divination and I got some kind of worrying informati...

Outdoor Movie Place Darko looks at Koko in confusion as she scoots away. Huh? Then he suddenly realizes what's happened and a mortified look crosses his face. He almost starts to reach out towards her but stops himself. "No, you weren't! Whoops... you weren't bothering me. I have an invisible ...

Dorm Darko usually stays out later than Asami, either to get in some extra studying in the library or to go to one of his hideaways and write in his diary. It's not that he doesn't like being in the dorm, it's just that there's always so much to do that it's hard to finally stop at the end of the d...

Hunting Well, that is strange. Nathair's curiosity is immediately piqued by the mind fogging area- something like that must exist for a reason, and it might be worth investigating. Maybe it holds some powerful magical item that he could claim for Ilpholin. Of course, it would be difficult to go int...

For Whom the Bell Gnolls Octavia is quite pleased with the result of their artillery. For all their ferocity, these beasts can't compete with the power of technology! And heavy explosives. Those are pretty effective too. But now to deal with the approaching gnolls. The angel isn't worried- as long ...

Aiko's Bad Day Bloodplunder Residence "She really likes eating books, huh?" chuckles Darko, moving protectively in front of Koko. Now that his own diary is secure, he's ready to thwart any more of Stinky-Chan's attempts at property destruction. Once they're inside he waves a hand dismissi...

Outdoor Movie Place Okay, those eels are pretty scary. Darko would probably be shaking a little himself, but his protective feelings towards Koko translate quite smoothly into bravery. Nothing like someone cute being scared to bolster your own confidence for their sake. Which is honestly a nice cha...

Paternity Problems It's always hard to know how many children is normal, especially with interspecies relationships. Atya herself has a twin, and five other siblings besides. But at least those weren't all at the same time. Although if Reinholdt is the father, well... cats do tend to have litters o...

A Bridge Too Far -well, i can move. i'm right here- clarifies Octavia, -but if you could help free my vessel, that would be so cool! i've been feeling a little naked without it- If one of your big things is fighting, then not having the means to do so always makes you a little tense. -but it's all ...

Chateau Xilo Atya smiles at Rowan, rather genuinely. "Hey, I appreciate that. And you're right, it's good they're not here. I don't know what you've heard, but the stories we could tell... well, they'd be better suited for a campfire at night." Simon nods in agreement. "Oh yeah. Ther...

Hunting Nathair glides through the air a few hundred feet over the shoreline, his gold eye picking up every detail despite the distance. His divination magic, although it was surprisingly reticent with this particular target, eventually indicated that this general area was a good place to look. So ...

Chateau Xilo "Yeah, do you have mountain dew code red zero?" asks Simon hopefully. Atya puts a hand over her heart in mock offense. "You wound me. I have everything . Daisy, would you be a doll and get Simon... that thing he just said, and something sweet for Rowan?" The monster...

Not a Date "Wooden and slow, right. Yeah, it'll be fine," says Darko, nodding vigorously. He does not sound very sure of that. But nonetheless he follows Bismuth into the waiting crowd. He's nowhere near as nimble as she is, but he's no slouch either- a lot of time stealing stuff on the s...

Boy and Dog Both Lenny and Darko grin at Jon's antics- at least there's common ground here. The former doesn't object to the dog taking over their jacket, reaching over to give his back a scritch. Gently, on account of the sharp nails. "Can you... talk to him?" asks Darko, tilting his hea...

Chateau Xilo Simon follows hesitantly behind Rowan, peering over his shoulder as they go. Right now, he's technically larger than the doorkeeper, considering his long coils- but should this be some horrible trap, his tiny dragon form could be crushed in her palm like an egg. So a little trepidation...

Chateau Xilo "You know, that's not a bad guess?" says Simon, nodding thoughtfully and looping his tail over Rowan's shoulders to squeeze him back. Actually, he hopes it's something like that. If Atya got her wealth in a Robin Hood type way, he's feel a little better about the whole situat...

Outdoor Movie Place Darko glances down at Koko as she rubs against his shoulder and relaxes a little. At least his impulsivity didn't make her uncomfortable. Well, it's not like this is a date, and it's not like she actually likes him, but... whatever it is, it's nice to have her this close for thi...

Boy and Dog Lenny stares at Jon with a puzzled expression for a couple moments before his eyes suddenly widen. He looks over at Darko, who's stepping hesitantly forward at the dog's beckoning. Suddenly Lenny is on his feet, reaching out to grab Darko. The boy is too surprised to resist, but he give...

Outdoor Movie Place Darko smiles down at Koko as she puts her head on his shoulder, glad she's in a good mood. And she really is cute. Somehow he hadn't fully noticed that before. And with that realization comes a sudden rush of self consciousness. He's sitting, in dim lighting, with a very pretty ...

A Bridge Too Far -that makes sense! mortals seem very delicate from what i've seen, so it's best to be cautious- says Octavia understandingly. Really, everyone should know that angels are always good, so there's never any reason to be scared of them. But mortals are silly and strangely suspicious i...

Aiko's Bad Day Bloodplunder Residence Darko hides a smile as Koko gets knocked over by the goat. This animal is a menace! A cute, relatively harmless menace. He offers his hand to help the young succubus get back to her feet. "I don't think she's listening to us," he jokes, sticking his t...

Paternity Problems Atya is likewise relieved to hear that the children will likely not have any problems- at least problems caused by genetics. After all, their welfare is far more important than anything else in this situation. As long as the five of them are okay... Wait, five? At once? Did she m...

Outdoor Movie Place Darko is happy to let Koko move on if that's better for her, and he's not complaining about the proximity. But the trailer is a little distracting, purely because there's actually moving pictures with color. That's absolutely crazy. And it's so crisp! It's like looking through a...

Not a Date Darko's also had to do some pretty weird stuff for the Wizards. Nothing too horrible, just... very weird. The mission they're on now is a little weird if you think about it. But again, not weird enough to be too questionable. Just a little off. Just like these manikins! There's something...

Boy and Dog Lenny winces and shoves at Jon, trying to roll over. Then as consciousness returns to her, she reaches up to scratch his ears. "(Hello! Missed you, friend.)" With a groan, she sits up, rubbing her eyes blearily. Then, between blinks, she notices Darko and gives a lazy wave. &q...
