The Nexus

[ Riverslides ] "I mean...flutes..." Why are flutes cool? "I dunno, they just are cool," the catgirl claims. Then, as a last-ditch explanation, she adds, "I knew people who played it." The catgirl, as it happens, doesn't have a faerie tail. Instead, what she has is more...

Of course, Talah wouldn't have called it 'flaws' but she completely gets the point behind it. "Running into a portable hat rack that you set up out in the wilderness or out in the middle of wherever would be pretty funny, though," she comments. But does it hold up to the hilarity of somebo...

[ Main Cabin ] Manja spotted Khannie with some kind of treasure, and watched her bring it into the Main Cabin. Of course, it's only right that Manja looks at it. She is, after all, the Princess of GLoG. It's her responsibility to check out any and all treasures to make sure they're good. So, after K...

[ Church of Venus ] The wind almost sounds like a sigh. As it happens, there's a pretty sturdy wall between here and the trees out behind the church. It's actually one of the more sturdy walls of the place, as it's one of the ones that hasn't had any collapse-damage on it. Especially because it does...

[ Cloud Nine ] Nina didn't make a values judgment. The hats themselves made the values judgment, by choosing to be this. She continues to ride the giant's hat. Take that, Dizzy and June! She's going to solve this whole thing on her own, while those two are stuck on the other side of that door. June ...

[ Maid Café and Book Signing - Cultist Crumpets ] The woman turns to the maid Reinholdt taking their order. " We would like iced sweet tea, served with strawberry tarts, please." The man harrumphs, and taps his fingers on the table. "Don't listen to that heresy," he informs Reinh...

[ Riverslides ] No flute? That changes what the catgirl is imagining Khannie to be like, then. What other types of illusion fox girls are there? Well, now she imagines Khannie wears a leaf on her head. Or maybe a human skull. One of those. Would depend on exactly how fox vs girl she is. "That's...

[Church of Venus] "(I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cause you trouble,)" Jon whimpers, "(Are you the patron deity of this church? I'd like to talk to you, if that's okay.)" Jon rolls on his side, facing away from the source of the voice to avoid seeming like his attention was focuse...

[ Library ] Seraphina doesn't worry about the potential side-effects from messing up the dual-ritual. Her mind is too hazy and she just wants more...well, it does tide her over just long enough to let the ritual end. Books? Chains? Diplomacy? Sticky notes? Cloaks? Crystals? All of this nuance is los...

[Church of Venus] Jon pants with nervous excitement, drawn between several things to investigate. He makes a few running steps towards the cultists with monster-like smells before whimpering and pulling back. Instantly afterwards, he struts towards the calming cultists before pausing glaring at the...

"Oh yeah, that makes sense. I can't be the only one with a problematic arm," nods Alice. Of course, her problem arm is the one that has to show more, rather than less, but the principal is the same. Said arm, without Alice's knowledge, has decided to crawl away down the bar counter behind...

[ Cloud Nine ] Rocks are sparkly, flowers are colorful. Colorful flowers are more fancy than sparkly rocks. Ergo, colorful hats are better than sparkly hats. Nina makes the obvious decision and lands on the colorful one. June, however, moves her head to the right and left to get a better look at eve...

"There are lots of ways to mix girls and cats, it's confusing," Maridia eventually concludes. "My partner Khannie is a girl and a fox! But she's different she can look like a girl or like a fox but not both at the same time." This might give the catgirl the wrong idea, though. W...

[ Library ] Seraphina swallows. She nods. She obeys: the other wounds she recently had closed are probably visible now. She places the cloak and pack aside, sits on the towel, and places the rest of the sandwich in her mouth but doesn't bite down or chew. Good, she's ready for the ritual, her mouth ...

[Riverside Riverslides] "Oh! That makes sense! Now I can tell the difference between catgirls and girlcats!" Maridia declares. This is actually doubtful. But she feels like she could right now. "But what about regular cats and girlcats? If they aren't turning into a human aren't thos...

[ Cloud Nine ] Admittedly, regular-sized moths are still pretty large for someone who is about the same size as a moth. Being camouflaged among the moths, Nina analyzes the two giants. Obviously, whichever one has the coolest hat would be the best to tail. She judges their hats with a critical eye, ...

[Church of Venus] Jon slowly blinks as he's petted, tilting his head up and letting his ears back. When water is brought to him, he sniffs it. As his senses gave him no reason for pause, he'd begin schlopping up the water for a few minutes. After draining a sizable portion of the water, he reassess...

Alice quickly motions to the bartender to refill Talah's drink. While that's being made she leans forward with great interest as Talah holds out her phone. "Oh huh, yeah those are pretty nice. I've never even considered that clothing could be made asymmetrical like that. If it's just down the ...

[ Riverside Riverslides ] The catgirl has actually never spoken with a dragon before, let alone a sparkly dragon. "Ummm..." How do you tell the difference? You just do . Like, it's obvious. But that's not a very satisfying answer. "A cat that's a girl is usually a cat but sometimes a ...

[ A Hallway ] After checking a few classrooms (some of the students are secretly (or sometimes not-so-secretly) undead! It made it hard!), Obsidian finally discovers where the mindless zombie has wandered off to. The short branch hallway between the music room and the gym. "Ah! There you are!&q...

[ Cloud Nine ] "Not always a monster," June replies in a hushed voice. Implying, of course, that sometimes it is a monster. "I mean, it depends on what else is around, and lots of other things. Um, but... sometimes . It's not something I've tested exhaustively." And, besides, it ...

[ Riverside Riverslides ] The catgirl, of course, takes a couple moments to realizes that someone (who is small and flying) is speaking to her specifically. She didn't expect anyone to just start talking to her while drifting down the lazy river! But, she does eventually realize the sparkly fairy dr...

[Library] Well if she waterproofs herself and sinks to the bottom of the ocean, she won't have to worry about drowning. And since the water isn't touching Seraphina, there probably isn't any pressure crushing her. Suffocation would still be problem. Depends on if humans with unusually sharp fangs n...

Harley turns the other robot over in her hands, trying to see how the "smaller on the outside" deal works with it, and she tries to move a piece out of the way. "To me, the biggest difference between technology and magic is that I don't really get tech but also think it's really inter...

[ The Riverside Riverslides ] After seeing an advertisement for it, a catgirl ends up deciding to visit the Riverslides. Red hair, but black fur...she's wearing a tankini. To be honest, she wanted to wear a one-piece instead but the problem with that is that she found the little tail-hole that comes...

[Starward Gaze] "I'm well familiar with his kind, yes. Targeting people in distress and taking advantage of their not being in a position to refuse." Contempt hangs off Sophie's words like icicles. "No doubt he justifies his actions by having nominal consent for them. We'll find a wa...

[Cloud Nine] Goat-sacrifice demanding dead-beat dads are objectively the worst kind of dead-beat dads. Anyway! Talk of sapient goop mouths. "My sooty stuff doesn't grow mouths," Dizzy points out. "Don't think it tries to become self aware, either. That seems kind of odd to me. Random...

Alice raises an eyebrow at the tail comment, glancing down to confirm that she hadn't missed such a feature before. "I suppose that would take a little customization, depending on the kind of tail. But yeah, I get it- I have to cut off all my right sleeves." On account of the blood, clear...

[Streets] A cursory look around the street reveals that, thankfully(?), this puppetry thing is relatively rare. There are only a few demons who seem to be subject to it, all of them quietly going about their business. All of them have facial markings, much like Mallory, though not in the same place...

[Church of Venus] Jon remains still as the worshipper pets him, blinking contently. Seeing as they couldn't understand him, he simply pants excitedly, utilizing a full array of communicational tools at his disposal. The front of Jon's collar only had his full name, Jon Terekhov, in big letters. Tho...
