• OOC: Make sure that you are all caught up below before posting here, please. Oh, and is there anything that requires clarification? (NT) -- Fate, 11:51:23 01/21/05 Fri
• OOC: Lunae, this one is for you. I don't have much more to say than what is below, though. (NT) -- Fate, 11:52:47 01/21/05 Fri
  • Lunae stares at Revin in more than little bit of confusion. "Kal'nith's mother? Wait, why is she a rebel. I don't believe I understand." (NT) -- Lunae, 16:20:49 01/23/05 Sun
  • Revin starts to explain, 'Well, before Fenvir was leader---' Fenvir stomps his paw onto the ground impatiently, cutting Revin off, 'She doesn't need a long and dull history lesson.' he turns to look at Lunae, 'Kal'nith's mother was involved with a pact with the demons. Due to that pact the demons claimed the swamp. She betrayed us.' Revin blinks and stares at Fenvir for a moment, then adds privately, 'That's one way of putting it.' (NT) -- Fate, 11:25:08 01/29/05 Sat
  • Lunae looked from Fenvir to Revin, then leaning back against a tree she ponders over everthing that she's heard. (NT) -- Lunae, 21:11:34 02/07/05 Mon
    • 'Look, the sun has shifted quickly,' Fenvir speaks after a moment, 'Perhaps you should get some rest.' (NT) -- Fate, 08:42:21 02/10/05 Thu
      • OOC: Except...y'know...there is no sun...so that would be the moon...Yeah. (NT) -- Fate's Editor, 20:52:08 02/11/05 Fri
    • OOC: Sorry for the delay. BIC: Lunae sits with Fenvir, but remains awake at all costs. She'd like to stay awake with her friend, and she wasn't tired anyway. (NT) -- Lunae, 19:43:18 02/27/05 Sun
  • Fenvir gently lies down and curls his tail around Lunae, 'Come, you must be tired. You're watch is complete. You are welcome to rest now, and Revin can awaken the next human...Terra, I believe.' His fur is warm against the cold night air, and it definitely causes severe drowsiness...OOC: Yeah, sorry Lunae. I gotta make it daytime soon or I'll go INSANE. (NT) -- Fate, 08:57:13 02/18/05 Fri
  • Lunae sits there against Fenvir. Although sleep sounds so welcoming, that dream still bothered her and she didn't wish to return to it. "I don't think that I'll sleep right now. I wish to remain awake for a while," she says trying to shake the drowsiness from her head. (NT) -- Lunae, 07:20:32 02/27/05 Sun
    • Fenvir nods, 'So be it.' (NT) -- Fate, 21:09:45 02/28/05 Mon
• OOC: Huzzah for the two in the most danger at the moment! Chaos and Naverin, you'll finish up in here. -- Fate, 11:55:54 01/21/05 Fri
  • "Chaos....what are we supposed to do?" Naverin gazes deeply at the approaching enemy. "Kal'nith, how do we stop these things if it is their mission to destroy all the wolves. We aren't wolves. And what exactly does Fenvir have to do with this whole thing?" Naverin pulls out her bow, preparing to fire. (NT) -- Naverin, 13:32:02 01/22/05 Sat
  • OOC: Yep, that'll do it. You play a mean game, Fate. BIC: Chaos had originally stood in front of Naverin, intending to fight this creature without getting others involved. Drawing his sword on the writhing beats, he gives a short yell and starts to advance. However, once the creature took the shape of a pirate, Chaos freezes. After a few moments of silence, he starts to shake uncontrollably. "Gauck...erkicble." he tries to move, but finds his astral form unwilling. ((Chaos has two phobias. Guess what one of 'em is.)) (NT) -- Chaos, 11:28:20 01/29/05 Sat
  • "Kukuku..." the pirate/serpent continues onward, stepping to the side of Chaos and flinging him out of the way. The black form draws its sword and starts towards Naverin, "Be a good girl, eh missie? You set that bow down nuice un' slow, and I won't 'urt ye." ((Naverin, please take a look inside.) -- Fate, 11:23:14 01/30/05 Sun
    • OOC:She is afraid of nothing!!jk, well her innate fears have to do with failure and family, but from there, you must figure it out. BIC:Naverin looks disgustingly at the "pirrate" and advances slightly, keeping her bow raised. "I have an idea, what say ye that you leave us be and we won't hurt you. Sounds good to me." Naverin stays wary and prepares to fire. (NT) -- Naverin, 15:59:59 02/10/05 Thu
  • OOC: Ach, ye play a hard game, lassie. BIC: "Kuku...Wouldn't tha' be nice?" the pirate takes /no heed whatsoever/ at the bow being raised at him. Instead he shifts again, contorting to a new shape...Which might as well be no shape at all. A clear, gellatinous substance, now cube-like in nature, is advancing towards you. OOC: Inside, por favor. -- Fate, 20:55:47 02/11/05 Fri
    • Naverin tries to quickly dodge the strange object and fires one arrow into it. now she just hopes for the best. (NT) -- Naverin, 00:11:40 02/18/05 Fri
    • The arrow pierces through the cube, but the strange substance simply slows the projectile down. About halfway into the 6-foot wide cube, the arrow comes to a complete halt. The cube stops for a moment, then moves towards the direction that Naverin dodged in, without turning to "face" her ((indicating, btw, that it has no face.)). It doesn't move any faster than a normal walking pace, but something about it calls for the word "relentless." As it moves, Naverin could note that the arrow is beginning to break apart, with the smaller splinters already dissolving...((Another note inside)) -- Fate, 08:49:47 02/18/05 Fri
      • OOC: That, I think, can wait 'till later. BIC: Chaos recovers himself and starts to creep up on what he believes to be the back of the cube. If he gets within range, he intends to cut off a small corner, so that his sword doesn't have time to get caught. (NT) -- Chaos, 11:52:37 02/23/05 Wed
    • OOC: Hrm...Yeah, okay. BIC: The cube either doesn't see Chaos, or doesn't care. Chaos successfully gets within range, and manages to clip off a corner of the cube. The corner dissolves before it even hits the ground, but the cube just "refills" the cut. (Granted, it is now fractionally smaller) The cube still ignores Chaos. (NT) -- Fate, 12:42:04 02/25/05 Fri
      • OOC:this is confusing. BIC: naverin seeing that an arrow would do no good pulls out her dagger and begins to try and also cut off a piece hoping the get it as small as possible. (NT) -- Naverin, 14:54:19 02/27/05 Sun
    • OOC: I know. I'm sorry. I think I better get back to the, um, y'know, the plot? That might be easier. BIC: The cube does continue to shrink gradually, until it is a tiny drop and it dies. All the other snakes are silent, then one hisses, 'Enough. We leave /now./ You shall pay for this, humans.' The snakes all leave, and you are now alone with the wolf spirits. OOC: It's sudden, it's mean, but it'll be different for 3rd watch. Yeesh. (NT) -- Fate, 19:45:32 02/27/05 Sun
      • Naverin begins circling so all of her sides are covered as she holds the dagger threateningly. "Chaos, what do we do now? It seems to be gone, but what was it doing her in the first place." (NT) -- Naverin, 17:43:44 03/01/05 Tue
• OOC: Behold, the paradise of errors! We need an unhappy twist in this thread. Take a look inside, anyway. -- Fate, 12:37:26 01/21/05 Fri
  • "Ugh," Terra falls down to her knees and rams her eyes shut, "You thought it was a good idea WHY? This place is terrible!" She tries to keep her stomach to herself, but she'd never felt so...spaced out before. Chancing a glance, and finding a grass blade at eye level she leaps to her feet---where the grass was brushing by..."Let's get outta here. I'll do anything I can to get out of here as fast as possible." (NT) -- Terra Yumakami, 17:33:09 01/21/05 Fri
• Ario remained silent for a few moments then finally directed the following thoughts to the new form of their guide 'If you cannot call up these vortexes at a whim how then will we ever leave this place?' The strange movements of the realm made Ario dizzy but he seemed to be otherwise ok. (NT) -- Ario, 14:57:59 01/24/05 Mon
• Kia felt like her stomach was in her throat and everything else seemed to be in the wrong place to. She couldn't tell if it was this place that was moving or herself. She shook her head, trying to rid herself of the feeling and asked "Are we in any danger from these demons?" (NT) -- Kia, 14:59:30 01/24/05 Mon
• OOC: Oooogh. Sorry 'bout this "uncharacteristic" waiting time. I've had a pretty bad case of the flu. BIC: Guide shakes her mane, 'I can't call them one right after another. That's all I meant. I need a short resting time...' she looks at the humans and sighs, 'Hold on. I think I can at least make it more comfortable.' she raises her head and howls for a long while. As her voice echoes, the landscape shifts once more. Now everyone sits on the same floor, and the horizon is the correct shape. The grass is all on the same level. The clouds are all on the same level. Everything is still shades of grey, but at least now it seems more organized. The only problem is that you are all now upside-down. Clouds drift past your feet and the grass now looks like the sky. Guide stops howling and quickly advises, 'I don't think any of you should like to look down...I understand that it can be uncomfortable to see that you are not standing on anything at all.' (NT) -- Fate, 11:33:03 01/29/05 Sat
  • Despite the Guide's warning Kia couldn't help but look down. She swallowed a yelp and promised herself that she wouldn't look again if she didn't have to. She hadn't done well with heights since...since Karia's accident. (NT) -- Kia, 20:09:49 01/29/05 Sat
  • Ario bounded about happily. He had always wondered what it was like for birds. He was sure this was a little different but he was fairly sure a tiger couldn't get much closer. (NT) -- Ario, 20:11:04 01/29/05 Sat
  • Terra chose to listen to guide, and keeps her gaze steadily forward or upward, electing not to see what is around her feet. Curiosity eventually gets the better of her, and she hauls out a bead from her pocket and drops it. She glances downward to see if the bead lands on the same plane she rests on, or if it falls through. (NT) -- Terra Yumakami, 11:25:08 01/30/05 Sun
    • Terra's bead does not make a sound, and a glance will tell anyone that it fell right down...or in this case, up. It would seem that whatever is keeping you in place is only keeping /you/ in place. (NT) -- Fate, 21:16:21 01/31/05 Mon
  • Lialye grimaces uncomfortably and shifts her feet as she casts a long look down - up? - at them (her feet, that is). How awkward...though admittedly much better than before, it's still absolutely bizarre.... -- Lialye, 16:46:00 01/31/05 Mon
  • OOC: Welcome back Lia. BIC: Kia held her head up trying not to look down "So what now?" (NT) -- Kia, 06:39:54 02/01/05 Tue
    • Guide shakes her head wearily, 'Now I rest. I can keep the world like this, but if I try to flip it, I'll be exhausted. I'm afraid I must sleep for a short time, then I will make this mistake up to you. Please, is there anyway you can occupy each other's time for a while?' Guide waits for a response for a moment, but even as she was communing, her head was drooping into her paws. Within seconds, she was asleep. OOC: The rest of Second Watch is intended as a 'Getting to know you' section for you guys, so that you know what the others are like, and what they can do. Sorry if it is a let down. (NT) -- Fate, 12:30:09 02/02/05 Wed
• OOC: I think we need it. I really know nothing of your guys' characters. But how to start? BIC: Sensing that they were going to be here a while Kia carefully sits down, trying, still, not to look down. (NT) -- Kia, 05:06:32 02/03/05 Thu
  • OOC: Like this, I guess...If you take the bait. If not, we can just...be blunt, I guess. BIC: "Have any of you met Lunae before? I haven't seen her in a long time, and I've been wondering what she's been up to." Terra sits perfectly straight, and her natural position makes her look ready for a fight. She stares down occasionally, trying to adapt to the sight. She murmurs as she glances, "We've been through a lot together, but I don't know a thing about where she's been after we got seperated." (NT) -- Terra Yumakami, 15:06:57 02/03/05 Thu
    • "I haven't. I really don't know anyone in our happy little group. I know names but nothing else." Kia said. (NT) -- Kia, 07:36:02 02/04/05 Fri
    • Ario grew tired of bounding around and curled up on, what was to him, the ground. As the humans couldn't understand him he lay still and listened. (NT) -- Ario., 07:37:21 02/04/05 Fri
    • OOC: Oh, no. Did this thread die? No one, but no one, has posted on any of the other sections either. Geez...I wanna finish the Swamp, not let it die. BIC: "Well, all right then. She said that we should know each other, and I agree. It's good to know who I can rely on in combat. Kia, why don't we spar or something?" Terra stands up, and brushes herself off. She was a very skilled martial artist, and was aching for a chance to practice a little. (NT) -- Terra Yumakami, 19:05:19 02/07/05 Mon
  • Kia smiled. A spar would be fun and they weren't doing anything but sit here anyway. Looking up at Terra she replied "Sure. What weapons?" (NT) -- Kia, 05:15:17 02/08/05 Tue
  • OOC: Meh! This site is dead! We need some happy long break. I don't think I'll make it to summer at this pace. (NT) -- Kia, 05:00:33 02/10/05 Thu
    • OOC: I know how you feel, although I suppose I'm not posting as fast as I should. At this point I kinda want to go play with others...BIC: Terra shrugs, "I've got a few small weapons on me, but I was thinking we could either do some hand to hand...or...well, I s'pose I don't have access to my other things, so all I have are my fists." (NT) -- Terra Yumakami, 10:24:05 02/10/05 Thu
    • Kia still had her sword, bow and a few smaller weapons but had no objection to hand to hand combat. "Fists it is then," she replied while unbuckling her sword. She stopped in the middle of what she was doing and on second thought rebuckled the sword "I'm not sure I want to set these down," she said with a half-smile. (NT) -- Kia, 05:14:37 02/11/05 Fri
  • Terra smiles, "If they get in your way, you could hand them to someone else." She then takes a few steps back and away from everyone. Taking three deep breaths, she relaxes entirely. She doesn't exactly fall into any recognizable stance, but it's clear that she's ready for combat. (NT) -- Terra Yumakami, 20:47:14 02/11/05 Fri
    • Kia smiles "I'll be alright." She stands opposite of Terra, begins the breathing patterns she had been taught and waits for Terra to make the first move. (NT) -- Kia, 05:22:31 02/14/05 Mon
  • OOC: Which under normal circumstances, never happens. Alas. BIC: Terra and Kia spend quite some time staring at each other before Terra decides to give in. Normally she can wait hours for the opponent to move first, but she was eager to get some serious practice. Easing one toe forward, she begins to advance within striking range. Watching her move is kind of disturbing. She walks like water, taking one brief step and then gliding back into position in smooth and continuous motion. The effect is quite hypnotic. When Terra finally moves within a kick's distance from Kia, she stops again, and waits to see if there is a reation. -- Terra Yumakami, 08:32:55 02/14/05 Mon
    • Kia watches Terra a moment more standing still as she did before at last she jumped forward, dropped to all fours and kicked out at Terra's shin. OOC: Her position is a bit weird but she's kind of looking back at you over a shoulder. -- Kia, 05:23:54 02/15/05 Tue
    • Lialye watches them for a while, still unnerved by the whole world-upside-down effect, then moves a few feet away off to one side. Upon considering sitting down, she decides not to...that just seems like trusting the air she's standing on too much, so she remains standing. Inwardly, she hopes they can get out of this place soon.... -- Lialye, 16:16:25 02/22/05 Tue
    • OOC: What the---I replied to your post days ago. Sorry about that, I don't know what happened there. It was pretty long, too...I'll condense it quickly: BIC: Terra steps back with the leg that was being kicked at, putting her into a traditional kendo stance, with weight equally balanced on each leg. She then "tsugiaches" forward (a shuffle move, but it's pretty quick. It moves forward without taking a step, so if you start with the right leg forward, it stays forward.) She then attempts to throw a punch at Kia's back, aiming straight down at the spine with an open palm. All of this happens in the course of about 2 seconds, realistically. -- Terra Yumakami, 11:58:15 02/23/05 Wed
      • As soon as Kia felt her kick miss she started to roll but before she could complete the roll Terra's downward thrust caught her on the right shoulder (in the front). Kia was forced to the ground but she quickly recovered, rolled again and got to her feet. She is now on the side of Terra. Kia attempts to hit Terra in the stomach. OOC: I know nothing of martial arts so I'm at a bit of a disadvantage. (NT) -- Kia, 07:41:50 02/24/05 Thu
    • OOC: In fairness, I know diddly-squat about hand to hand. I've done mostly swordsmanship, with a hint of judo. Most of what I'm writing is stuff that I've seen my sensei (teacher) do. The rest is stuff I'm just making up. Whee! BIC: Terra relaxes her stomach as much as possible and takes the hit, exhaling as she is struck to soften the blow. She then grabs Kia's...arm? leg? Whatever Kia used to hit, and twists it outward in a small attempt to lock it. She also adjusts her legs, so that she can stand up quickly. (NT) -- Terra Yumakami, 12:34:05 02/25/05 Fri
      • OOC: It was Kia's arm. BIC: Kia swings a leg around attempting to trip Terra again so that she will loosen the grip on Kia's arm. (NT) -- Kia, 07:12:22 02/26/05 Sat
    • OOC: Okay then. BIC: Terra rolls to avoid the kick, releasing the arm in the process. She stops on one knee, facing Kia at about two arms length. "That was pretty good," she admires, "you ready for more?" (NT) -- Terra Yumakami, 19:47:26 02/27/05 Sun
      • "Absolutely," Kia replied grinning. Kia stood ready to block waiting for Terra to attack first this time. (NT) -- Kia, 04:57:19 02/28/05 Mon
