Silkie: *Arrives with Vic.*
Victor Mendez: *Victor sighs as he gets out of the taxi
with Silkie*
Silkie: *Looks all around, checking out
the area.*
Victor Mendez: "Well here we are this is where I beleive
they attacked Jarod at" *says Victor as he looks at Silkie*
Silkie: "Is this where it happened?"
Silkie:
3,3,10,5,9,7,
Silkie: ((per + alert))
Victor Mendez -> Ravyn:
((Rolling for supernatural awarness to see if there is anything supernatural
going on four miles from where they are))
Victor Mendez:
8,8,8,8,
Ravyn:
((Doing up a quick description...gimme OOONE sec.))
Victor Mendez: *Victor nods to Silkie* "I beleive so. Hope
I didnt drag you out here on a snype hunt Silkie" *says Victor as he begins
looking around to see if there is anything on the ground that might have
belonged to the attackers*
Victor Mendez: ((okay))
Silkie: "What's a snype?"
Ravyn: The
area that Jarod has directed them where he was jumped is an alleyway in Staten
Island, commercial neigborhood. Unlike Manhattan and other areas, Staten Island
isn't a huge metropolis. It's rather a much quieter, residential area. The taxi
lets them off on a street corner near what would probably be considered the main
business strip of Staten Island. It consists mostly of businesses...Wal-Mart, a
shopping mall, small restaraunts and the like. They're about half a block from
the alleyway.
Victor Mendez: "From what I understand its an imaginary creature that people used to bring children to hunt as a joke" *says Victor with a smile to Silkie*
Victor Mendez: *Victor motions towards the alleyway*
"there is the alley over thee Silkie. If anything happens Silkie I want you to
stay behind me okay"
Silkie: "I don't think I could find one of
those." *Peeking behind a rubbish bin.*
Ravyn: Victor
senses no supernatural activity currently going on in the vicinity. ((Silkie,
what exactly are you looking for?))
Silkie: "Okay."
Silkie: ((Anything out of the ordinary.
Blood on the ground weapons, a button, anything that might catch her eye.))
Victor Mendez: *Victor begins rummishing through the
garbage next to Silkie trying to find anything that might belong to Jarod's
attackers*
Silkie: *Walks up the alley a ways.
Maybe a homeless person saw something helpful.*
Victor Mendez: *Victor stops rummaging through the garbage
for a minute trying to reconstruct the scene in his mind*
Victor Mendez: 10,9,4,8,
Victor Mendez: ((per+investgation even though the two
rolls are exactly alike))
Silkie: Checks cardboard boxes and
doorways, to see if anyone's about.
Ravyn: A
quick check of the area reveals that the cops have already been around this
area, and did their usual clean-up job, but probably not much else. Silkie finds
a couple pieces of bone in the corner of the alley...looks like skull. Victor
hit the jackpot, as she lifts up a trash bag and finds a knife underneath, much
like the one Jarod described.
Ravyn: There
are no homeless people in this alleyway. Signs that there may have been some
here in the last month...but none actually here.
Silkie: *Picks up the chunks of bone
and examines them.* (per + med to recognize if they're human)
Victor Mendez: *Victor smiles as he looks at the knife*
"Hey Silkie look at this." *says Victor as he looks at the knife* "It looks like
one of the knifes that Jarod described"
Silkie:
5,6,5,3,3,10,6,
Silkie: *Looks up from the bits of bone
she's holding.* "I think I found some... skull bits." Walking over.
Ravyn: Oh,
yeah, that's human skull. Looks like whoever's it was probably had their head
crushed into the wall. Literally.
Silkie -> Ravyn:
Can she tell how fresh they are?
Victor Mendez: *Victor grabs a piece of news paper and
wraps the knife in it trying his best not to touch it*
Silkie -> Ravyn:
scalp or hair still attached?
Ravyn: The
knife is pretty much how Jarod described it. A wavy blade, like a kris. Although
tarnished and well-used, the handle and guard are ornately worked. The plade
itself has jagged teeth going both ways, so that it causes maximum pain both
going in and going out.
Silkie: *Shows him the bones then peers at
the knife as he wraps it.*
Victor Mendez: *Victor nods to her and opens up his tool
box so that she will have someplace to put them* "they probably belonged to the
attackers." *says Victor with a sigh* "If only we had been able to get here
sooner. We might have been able to find somthing useful in what the cops cleaned
up"
Ravyn -> Silkie:
No scalp or hair. Best estimation...two to three
weeks old.
Victor Mendez: ((Can i do and int+leg roll to see if I
remeber any malfactors or other demons who created weapons in the style of the
knife?))
Ravyn:
((Sure.))
Silkie: *Sniffs the bones curiously,
then sets them carefully in the tool box.* "There's a mark on the wall over
there, like maybe someone had their head smashed on the bricks. You think Jarrod
did that?"
Silkie: "They're a few weeks old. How long
ago was it that he was attacked?"
Victor Mendez:
2,8,4,6,5,
Victor Mendez: "I think that that would be within the
timeframe that he was attacked in. It is probably a by product of Jarod
defending himself" *says Victor as he continue to look around the area*
Silkie: "Why do you think they left the
knife?"
Ravyn -> Victor Mendez:
This particular style is nothing that Victor
specifically remembers, no. The carvings on the top strike a chord with him,
though. It's a horned man, bound in spiked chains, which twist down and form the
rest of the guard. He has a fleeting memory of a general in the War of Wrath
known as the Lord of Chains, who seems to fit the description.
Ravyn: The
carvings on the top of the knife are that of a horned man, bound in spiked
chains, which twist down and form the rest of the guard.
Victor Mendez: "You see that symbol Silkie." *says
Victor motioning to the horned man bound in chains* "Its the symbol of a general
during the War of Wrath who called himself the Lord of Chains. We are at least
one step closer to discovering who our Earthbound is"
Silkie: "It's kind of pretty. Can I touch
it?"
Victor Mendez: "The knife probably got overlooked by the
police" *says Victor continuing to look around wandering further down the alley
trying to locate anything else that might help to shed some light of the
situation*
Victor Mendez: *victor just smiles at her* "I would prefer
if you didnt we need the knife left alone as much as posible as to not destroy
any possible evidence on it"
Ravyn:
1,8,9,6,8,
Ravyn: ((Per+Alertness))
Silkie: "Maybe we can wake it up and
ask it who its owner is."
Silkie:
5,4,8,6,2,8,
Victor Mendez:
2,8,2,6,8,
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks at her a little oddly* "Wake
it up? What do you mean by that?"
Ravyn: Both
Victor and Silkie suddenly sense that they aren't alone in this alleyway, though
they can't quite discern WHERE their new friend is.
Silkie: *Gets a sort of creepy feeling and
looks around suddenly.*
Victor Mendez: *Victor steps in fron of Silkie* "Okay
Silkie we need to back out slowly. I dont want you getting hurt over this"
Silkie: Is more than glad to stay behind
Victor. She backs up slowly.
Silkie: Reaches to take his tool box.
"I'll hold that so your hands are free... just in case."
Ravyn: As
Silkie looks around and Victor moves protectively, a feminine voice sounds out.
"No one's getting hurt, Nehaliel." A form steps out from behind one of the piles
of garbage and rubble near the entrance.
Ravyn: What’s
this...a Neil Gaiman character come to life? Might as well be...if they were
casting the part of Death in a Sandman movie, she would certainly be it. She
stands at about 5’9”, maybe 110-115 pounds. Black hair and white-face certainly
give the slightly tacky illusion of a corpse...the hallmark of the gothic
lifestyle, of course. She’s really got the look down, right to the curly-Q drawn
in eyeliner coming from the outside corner of the right eye. She’s dressed in a
black tank-top, matching jeans, hip-huggers, and Doc Martins. A black girl’s
formal jacket and a parasol completes the look, along with black lipstick. Her
eyes, a soft brown, carry a keen intelligence and a biting wit, as well as a
deep, deep sadness at something unsaid. Goth girls of the world, unite! Here is
your Queen!
Silkie: Eeep! She's on the wrong side of Victor! Spins around to his other side, and peers around him at the woman.
Victor Mendez: *Victor spins around to look at the
unknow person* "And who might you be" *He says as he slowly moves towards her*
Victor Mendez: *Victor lets Silkie take his tool box as he
stares at the woman waiting for an answer*
Ravyn: "Jerech-Kor,
at your service." She smiles. "Or, as those not of our...nature know me, Baby
Death."
Victor Mendez:
4,7,4,8,3,
Victor Mendez: ((Int+leg))
Silkie: *Holding the heavy box by the
handle with both hands. She hangs back when Vic moves closer to the woman.*
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks at her* "So Jerech-Kor what
do you know about what has happened here" *He says as he continues his slow
advance on her*
Ravyn -> Victor Mendez:
The name is familiar; however, he's not able to
remember much about her. A Fiend, he seems to recall.
Ravyn: She
takes one step back, warningly, as he approaches. "Now, now. That'll be enough
moving forward. We're on the same side, Nehaliel."
Victor Mendez: *Victor stops* "Im sorry if I dont know
enough right now to make that assumption. No offense to you Jerech-Kor but I
barely remeber you."
Ravyn: Her
lips quirk in a smile. "Not surprised." She looks to Silkie and nods. "Hey."
Silkie: "Hi," she softly, staring at the
woman.
Silkie: (she SAYS softly)
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks at her* "So what do you know
about the Earthbound in the city?" *he says as he stands his ground looking a
little uneasy and makeing sure to keep infront of Silkie*
Ravyn: "I
know better then to start talking about it in an alley that Cernunnos's cultists
are known to have inhabited at some point, for one." She can't but suppress a
small smile at that. "And I know that he's started targeting specific
individuals in the city. Ones who, for whatever reason, he views as a threat."
Victor Mendez: "So do you have a place to go a discuss
this Jerech-Kor?" *says Victor watching her*
Ravyn: "Here
in Staten Island?" She shrugs. "Nope. A bit rich for my blood. But if you wanna
head out to the Bronx with me, we can talk it over at my place."
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks at Silkie* "Would that be
okay with you Silkie"
Silkie: Nods. "I guess."
Victor Mendez: "Okay then lead the way Baby Death" *says
Victor still eyeing her with a bit of suspicion*
Ravyn: She
grins a little and nods, turning and sauntering out of the alleyway. She hails a
cab.
Silkie: *Offers Vic his tool box back, its
kind of heavy.*
Victor Mendez: *Victor follows her to the cab and lays a
reassuring hand on Silkie* "You dont have to come with us if you dont want to,
but no matter what I will protect you with my life"
Victor Mendez: *Victor takes the tool Box*
Silkie: "I'm okay." Smiles up at
Victor.
Ravyn: When
the cab pulls up, she slides inside, giving the cabbie an address in the South
Bronx. She's pretty relaxed as she sits down.
Victor Mendez: *Victor slides in next to her*
Ravyn: Once
everyone's in, the cab takes off, heading out of the borough. ((Off to Dynamic
Res?))
Ravyn:
Once everyone's in, the cab takes off, heading out of the borough. ((Off to
Dynamic Res?))
Silkie: *Gets in last, glad Vic is sitting
beside the stranger.*
Silkie: ((kk))
Victor Mendez: ((Cool with me))
JERECH-KOR'S APARTMENT
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen: The taxi pulls up to a low-rent apartment complex...old, horribly kept-up. She slides out, handing the cabbie his money, and looks up. "Home Sweet Home." She sighs, and starts to head in.
Victor Mendez: *Victor gets out of the cab and follows
her to the apartment* "So how did you know who I was Baby Death?"
Silkie: Follows, listening curiously as
the talk.
Silkie: (they)
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
The apartment that she leads them to is on the
top floor. She unlocks the door and leads them into painted black walls, with
drapings of silk here and there. The smell of incense is heavy in the air, and
the lighting is dim, all the lamps covered by cloth and the windows painted
black.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"We have mutual interests. Part of the same
social club."
Silkie: *Looks all around, especially at
the painted windows. She's never seen a house painted black inside before.*
Silkie: *Stands on her toes to whisper
in Vic's ear.*
Victor Mendez: "So your a member of the court then" *says
Victor the words rolling out of his mouth with a bit of distaste*
Victor Mendez: *Victor shakes his head*
Victor Mendez: ((Shakes his head no to Silkie))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She nods. "I am. The Minister of Eagles, as a
matter of fact. So, it's my business to know what's going on, and who's around.
Like you." She winks a little.
Silkie: *Peeks under a cloth covered lamp
and starts nosing about the place.*
Victor Mendez: "Okay then what do you know about the
Earthbound" *says Victor watching her*
Silkie: Thinks eagles are good.
Silkie: Thinks eagles are good.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Cernnunos." She sighs, taking a seat and idly
watching Silkie poke about her place. "He's a high-ranking one, I'll tell you
that. And he's been here for quite some time, like most of the Earthbound. Here
on the world, I mean. I believe he just woke up recently, though I can't be too
sure whether it's that, or whether he just came here recently."
Silkie: *Runs a hand over a painted window
and checks to see if its latched.*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
Silkie finds all sorts of neat, eclectic pieces
of chinzy art, a fairly large CD collection of 80's goth and 90's-to-current
death metal, a huge stack of Neil Gaiman comics and other graphic novels. Other
interesting little pieces of work.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
And the window is in fact latched.
Victor Mendez: "So do you know why he would consider Jarod
a threat" *says Victor looking around the apartment a bit*
Silkie: Shows little interest in the cd's
and comics, but picks up the bits of bric-a-brac and examines them closely.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Think about it for one moment, Nahaliel." She
watches him. "What use is our Lammasu friend to anyone?"
Silkie: "What's Lammasu mean?"
Victor Mendez: *Victor sits there in thought* "Your not
trying to say that Jarod is in with the Earthbound are you?"
Silkie: *Frowns and looks at Baby and
Victor both, eyes flickering between them.*
Victor Mendez: "The Lammasu is another term for what Jarod
is Silkie" *says Victor trying to explain it as best as possible*
Silkie: "Jarrod's not bad," she says with
certainty.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She sighs. "If I thought your friend was on
Cernunnos's team, tell me, would I be following you or him?"
Victor Mendez: *victor sits there a little confused*
"Well then if you arnt following him then i can assume that there is no reason
to suspect that he is working with the Earthbound, but then answer me this
question why is the earthbound targeting him from your point of view?" *says
Victor with a sigh* "unless it extends from him being a scout within the Silver
Legion for some reason or another"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
A roll of the eyes. "Think simpler, Nehaliel.
What use is Jarod Freeman to anyone at all?"
Silkie: *Wonders idly if demons piss and
looks for the bathroom.*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
Silkie finds out the great secret...yes, Demons
from Hell do in fact piss. ;-)
Victor Mendez: "He is dating Melody Drake giving him a
good link to the treaty" *says Victor with a sigh obviously grasping fro straws*
"but other than that he has no use other than being a friend of mine and
occasionally providing me with information"
Silkie: *Checks out the bathroom, noting
it looks like it gets use.*
Silkie: *Glances back at Victor.*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She smiles a little. "Congratulations. You hit
the nail on the head there, there. Miss Melody Drake."
Victor Mendez: "So you think the Earth Bound wants
somthing to do with Mrs. Drake and the Treaty?" *says Victor looking a little
unnerved* "Then we should warn them"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"I think Cernnunos wants to get Jarod under his
thumb, so he can pull the strings of the treaty, yes. Your actor friend has
several abilities, I'm sure you know. Ones he could use on his girlfriend that
he hasn't, to twist her to his will. And I think that if you tell him, he'll do
something incredibly heroic and unbeLIEVably stupid."
Silkie: "He might," she agrees with
Baby. "He's in love with Melody."
Victor Mendez: *Victor nods* "you are probably right
there. Okay then I will continue to try and bring jarod into the court" *says
Victor with a sigh* "So that maybe we can keep him away from Cernnunos"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"How nice for him." She grins a little bit. "And
how potentially bad for us."
Victor Mendez: "okay Baby Death do you have any
suggestions" *says Victor watching her*
Silkie: "Why would that be bad?"
Victor Mendez: ((hey ya I need to get somthing to eat in a
bit))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"It would be bad because love makes people
unpredictable. They do stupid things when they're in love."
Silkie: "We need to get this Cerennus
first. How do we find him?"
Silkie: ((shares beer and chocolate))
Victor Mendez: *Victor sighs* "Okay then we should avoid
telling Jarod or Mrs. Drake that they are she is possibly in danger"
Victor Mendez: *says Victor as he stumbles over his words*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Finding Cernnunos will be no easy task. His
reliquary will be difficult to find, and well-protected."
Silkie: "Reliquary? That's his house?"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((BRB...gotta reboot. We wanna pause here for a
few, while Dark gets food?))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((Cool. Gimme a few, and I'll be back.))
Victor Mendez: "thats what he exist in unlike us he does
not have a mortal host and is tied to the earth through being bound in an
object" *says Victor as he moves to stand*
Victor Mendez: ((okay ping ya when I get backj may be
about 30 to 45 minutes))
Silkie: ((Takes a break. No worries.))
Silkie: ((back))
Victor Mendez: *Victor stops himself from standing and
settles back in his seat looking at Baby Death*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Yeah, it's kind of like his house, Silkie."
Silkie: "Is that why you call him
earthbound?"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Pretty much." She smiles at the girl.
Silkie: "If he's stuck to an object, how
can he cause so much trouble?"
Victor Mendez: *Victor digs in his tool box and pulls out
the dagger wrap in newspaper* "We found this in the alley do you reconize the
symbol on the hilt?" *says Victor as he unwraps the hilt*
Victor Mendez: "because its influence can strech far
beyond the object and cause trouble for everyone in New York" *says Victor still
holding the dagger*
Silkie: "But it's... inanimate, right?
What would happen if its relique got broken?"
Victor Mendez: "Im guessing that it would be pulled back
to hell like the rest of us" *says Victor looking at Silkie* "but breaking its
relique will be alot harder than it sounds even after we find it and get past
its guardians"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Then it would be freed and pulled back to Hell, basically."
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen: She looks over at the dagger, raising an eyebrow as she studies it.
Silkie: "Sooo, that's the plan, right?"
Images of bulldozers running through her mind.
Victor Mendez: "Did you remeber a general in the war of
wrath that refered to himself as the lord of chains?" *says Victor as he hands
the dagger to Baby Death*
Victor Mendez: "After we discover its location and figure
out the best way to attack it. This problem makes the devourer roaming the
downtown alleys look like childsplay Silkie" *says Victor as he sighs*
Silkie: Amends her vision to a fleet of
bulldozers. "Oh."
Victor Mendez: "These demons that have become the
Earthbound were the one time dukes and archdukes of hell summoned here before
the cracks in the abyss began to form my mortal sorcerers seeking power" *says
Victor as he leans back in his seat*
Victor Mendez: ((my=by))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
5,6,6,6,2,6,2,
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen: She looks the dagger over. "Interesting..."
Silkie: "The namers broke hell?" Blinks
at this. "On purpose?"
Victor Mendez: "I dont think that any of us
really know what caused the abyss to finally crack but sorcers reached beyond
the walls of hell and pulled forth demons with out actually damageing the
barriers" *says Victor before turning his attention to Baby Death* "Does it mean
more to you than it did to me I hope?"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"No, the sorcerers somehow learned to summon us,
Silkie." She's still studying the dagger. "We don't know how the cracks formed,
but that was recently."
Silkie: "Were they trying to rescue the
good demons, like you?"
Victor Mendez: "Silkie it pains me to say
this but in hell there really were no good demons, just once divine beings
consumed from there torment. No the sorcers only summoned us becasue they
thought it would bring them power." *says Victor with a shudder remebering the
abyss*
Silkie: "But, but you're good, aren't you
Victor?" Sounding a little worried.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"There's Germanic elements to the dagger, to be
certain," she muses. "But the style of the dagger...that's pure Bali style. This
is a hybridization of a couple styles. This dagger is probably unique, and my
guess would be it's related specifically to Cernnunos's cult."
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She looks away from the dagger, to Silkie.
There's an oddness to her gaze as she studies the girl, searching for words. A
slightly haunted quality.
Victor Mendez: *Victor smiles at Silkie*
"Yes now that my Torment has been lifted from me by my hosts memories I have
returned to a state more closley remebling my divine self"
Victor Mendez: *Victor reaches out for the
dagger* "So maybe if we understand the dagger we can begin to understand
Cernnuno"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Silkie, you're a good person, right?" She smiles
a tiny bit to her, her gaze a bit sad. "Someone who does what their heart says
is right? Sometimes breaks the rules in order to do so?"
Silkie: Looks from Victor to Baby and
back. "Maybe the Cernnuno will feel better after a while too?"
Silkie: "I try to be." Rolls her lips.
Victor Mendez: *victor sighs* "only if that
were true Silkie but in fact he has been here for centuries and has not had the
benifit of having a human's memories snap him back from his tormnet"
Silkie: "Maybe we could find a human that
wants to help him."
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She nods. "'Kay. So let's say you made a decision
that your boss didn't agree with. And to punish you, he sent you to the worst
place ever created. Imagine the worst place you've ever been, then make it a
billion times worse. Literally. And you stay there for an eternity. Every day
feels like a hundred years."
Silkie: Baby> "I think your God is
tainted. Nothing good would create what I glimpsed inside of Jarrod."
Victor Mendez: "It dosent work that way
Silkie. Beleive me I wish that it did but it dosent. First off I dont even think
that he could inhabit a human host and secoundly I really dont think that it
wants help. The Earthbound seem to thrive off of the power there torment gives
them and the evil it causes"
Silkie: Looking a little haunted herself,
over what she saw.
Victor Mendez: *Victor shudders at as Baby
Death describes the Abyss*
Silkie: "Then we have to kill it," she
whispers. "Even if it's very hard to do."
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She smiles a little. "A debate for another time.
I'm just saying that if you were in that situation, even someone as good as you
would be pretty evil by the time some sorcerer came out and started to summon
you out, right?"
Silkie: "I don't know. I think such a
place... would have unmade me."
Victor Mendez: *Victor nods* "Silkie you
dont have to be involved in any of this if you dont want to be. I dont want you
to get hurt"
Silkie: "I'll be careful," she promises
Victor. "It's my job to fix bad things."
Victor Mendez: *Victor smiles at her and
shakes his head as if syaing "Okay"*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She leans back, watching them as she pulls a
clove out and lights it.
Silkie: "Oh, may I have one?"
Victor Mendez: *Victor turns his attention
back towards Baby Death* "Okay then where should we start?"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Knock yourself out." She passes the cloves to
Silkie, then looks to Victor. "Nehaliel, I'm not sure where to start. I look for
answers to questions, nothing more. However...maybe I can help you find the
questions you need."
Silkie: *Plucks a cigarette out of the
pack and offers it to Victor, returning it Baby if he doesn't want one. She
fishes a lighter out of her pocket and flicks it to life with a grin, staring at
the flame a moment before she lights the cigarette and safely sequesters her
precious lighter. Precious. That's what she'll name it.
Victor Mendez: "That would be most helpful
since I seem to be against a brick wall on this one" *says Victor looking at
Baby Death*
Victor Mendez: *Victor waves the cig. away*
"i dont smoke"
Silkie: Takes a long drag, and watches the
smoke curl up towards the ceiling.
Victor Mendez: *Victor reaches out to Baby
Death since she still has the dagger* "May I have the dagger back?"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Motivation's the key to understanding anyone.
Understanding someone's the key to figuring out how to beat them." She smiles a
little. "So you need to ask yourself. What does Cernnunos want?"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She hands the dagger back with a nod.
Victor Mendez: "well we can assume that it is building its cult from those mortals that have been outcasted by society through the fact that his cultest seem to be living on the streets. Maybe that is as good a place as any to start looking for what my enemy wants" *says Victor calming down a bit as he forces himself to think of places to start*
Silkie: "Maybe we should find some of
his servants."
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"That sounds like a good plan, Silkie." She nods.
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks up at Baby
Death* "I know that you are under no obligation to help me, but if you learn any
more about this cult will you keep me informed and I will do the same for you?"
Silkie: "If the dagger belonged to one of
them... we could ask it. Maybe it would tell us if we promised to return it to
its owner."
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"'course. That's what the Court's there for." She
smiles a little. "Mutual cooperation and protection."
Victor Mendez: "Okay then lets head back to
Staten Island and see if we can find any sign that they are still opereating in
that area" *says Victor with a smile to both Silkie and Baby Death*
Silkie: Nods and looks at Baby. "Are you
coming with us?"
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks at Silkie a
little confused* "how do you plan on asking the dagger any thing?"
Silkie: "Everything has a spirit, Victor."
Victor Mendez: *Victor smiles and hands the
dagger to Silkie* "than be my guess ask it. Im willing to try anything on this
one"
Silkie: "It might even be awake." Holds
her hand out for the dagger.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She watches them as they talk about asking the
dagger, an eyebrow raised.
Victor Mendez: *Victor glances at baby
Death and shrugs his shoulders*
Silkie: "Being a dagger, it might want...
some blood or something," she says softly hoping one of them will volunteer to
be poked if it seems necessary.
Victor Mendez: *Victor nods* "If it needs
blood it can have mine"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She smirks in response. "You're the Annunaki,
Victor, not me. You'd know more about talking to objects." She looks at the two
of them, her eyebrow raised.
Silkie: She switches to spirit speech, and
addresses the dagger. ~ss~ "Blade of the chained one? Can you hear me?" Although
to them, she's not speaking at all.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((Gaah, too much raising of the eyebrows. :P))
Silkie: ((*L*))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She watches, intrigued.
Silkie: *Listens for its voice.*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen -> Silkie:
The dagger doesn't respond to simple Spirit
Speech...apparently, it would need awakening.
Victor Mendez: "Yes I am Annunaki but I
know nothing of the spirt of objects" *says Victor watching what Silkie is doing
closely*
Silkie: "It's sleeping," she says softly.
Silkie: "Shall I try to awaken it?"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Depends on what you need to do to awaken it,"
she answers, smiling a little.
Victor Mendez: *Victor reaches out to
take the dagger back* "okay then back to Staten Island to see if we might be
able to locate any of these cultest"
Victor Mendez: ((DLP))
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks at her waiting
for the answer to Baby Deaths question*
Silkie: "Sometimes things just... wake
up if they're around me very long. But sometimes... when I dance... not always,
but sometimes."
Silkie: "I could try dancing for it."
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She chuckles slightly. "Dance away, if you want.
Do you need music to dance to?"
Victor Mendez: "if it will help us figure
out where Cernunnos is im all for it" *says Victor giving Silkie room to dance*
Silkie: "No." She moves to set the dagger
in the middle of the floor, and stands there a moment, just listening to the
muted sounds of the city, the howling voice of the wind, barking dogs and the
distant blare of automobile horns.
Silkie: And somewhere, in that raucus
maelstrom of noise... she finds a pulse... music perhaps to no one but her... it
is life she hears... it's there in everything.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She sits back, watching Silkie, curiosity evident
in her eyes.
Silkie: Her body begins to move slowly...
this will be a dance of life and death, because it's a dagger, and its purpose
is to end life. But the knowledge of mortality makes life all the more precious
and sweet.
Silkie:
7,3,5,7,3,1,5,6,2,
Victor Mendez: *Victor smiles as he watches
Silkie very curious as well it what is actually happening here*
Silkie: She starts out slow, somewhat
stilted. Maybe even a hint of fear in her movements. She's afraid of death and
has never strove to speak with something that brings the swift ending of
something so dear as life.
Silkie -> Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((that was her performance roll, next is the roll
to awaken the dagger))
Silkie: 5,5,2,7,8,2,6,
Silkie: A spin and a twirl, her coat
flaring, fingers brushing the ground as she makes a circle around the dagger.
Silkie: Her lithe form rises up and
arches. An odd thing to watch in a way. Her moving in such an arithmic manner
without music, yet oddly attuned to the environment... to the world... some
would say, to Gaia herself.
Silkie:
4,2,8,7,5,4,8,3,7,
Victor Mendez: *A smile creeps to Victors
face as he watches Slikie thankful for the fact that he is able to witness
somthing so beautiful even if it dosent yield results*
Silkie: Grace begins to find her movements
as she flows more steadily, letting the fear behind what she's attempting wash
away. She doesn't have to promise it to kill anything. She won't, as she spins
and leaps over the dagger lying there like a scar on the black floor.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
2,3,3,4,6,2,3,6,
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
4,7,9,5,3,6,6,
Silkie: Her feet touch the ground lightly,
soft thuds, their breathing, the rustle of her leather coat, these are the only
apparent sounds as she moves, a tiny dervish in a dark room, summoning forth
potential malice.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((Roll WP, Silkie. Victor, Per+Awareness.))
Victor Mendez:
7,6,6,4,
Silkie: She has learned the wyrm is
necessary... death may not be evil. Each aspect of the triat has its place in
the great cycle. Her's is the voice of the wyld, and her dance calls forth life
and creation, even if such life ultimately must end.
Silkie:
8,1,2,9,
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
2,6,8,9,6,9,4,9,
Silkie: A spin and a kick. Her legs fly
over the dagger, and drops low, sweeping it up into her hand, twirling with it
held high aloft.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
The first person to notice anything is remotely
wrong is Baby Death. Her eyes widen and she opens her mouth, just as Victor
senses it. An unbelievably strong, highly malevolant presence erupts from the
dagger. Quite simply, one of the most terrifying feelings you've ever felt.
Pure, unadulterated, insanity and evil, not remotely human or even human-like.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
And the presence shoots itself right into
Silkie's mind, before anyone can react.
Victor Mendez: "Silkie get away from the
dagger" *yells Victor as he jumps up from his seat and moves towards the dagger*
Silkie: Her dance staggers to a halt and
she stares at the thing in her hand, eyes wide. "I think it's awake," she
squeeks.
Silkie: Her knees just go all watery, and
she drops to the floor with a scream of utter terror.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen -> Silkie:
Silkie feels her mind instantly overwhelmed by
feelings of anger, pain, Torment, hatred, rage, fear, and every other negative
emotion under the sun. As focused as she is on her dancing, it hits her full-on,
and she doesn't have time to react. The presence is enormous, much bigger then
any mind she may have touched before. Imagine Angu, the Urge Wyrm that the Body
defeated, being directly in your mind.
Victor Mendez: *Victor moves close to
Silkie and puts his arms around her as he stares at the dagger*
Silkie: *The dagger falls from her hand
and she arches backwards, head against the floor, her hands tearing her hair,
voice wailing in utter torment.*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
Baby Death leaps off the chair, taking her
Apocalyptic Form; an enormous, indigo being with intricate lines and patterns
all over it's body and swan's wings, moving for the dagger.
Victor Mendez: *Victor holds her as tightly
as possible* "get the dagger away from her" *He yells at Baby Death hoping that
it will make a diffrence*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen -> Silkie:
In an instant, she feels all of it's attention
focused on her, and a deep, vicious rumbling chuckle. "HELLO, SILKIE.
SO...NICE TO MEET YOU."
Silkie -> Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She doesn't reply to the voice, her terror is too
great, but she hears it. And oh... it knows her name.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She leaps into the air, bringing her knee down
toward the hilt. ((Dex+Brawl))
Victor Mendez: *Victor holds Silkie cloesly
to his body as a father would hold a child when she goes limp as he watches to
see if Baby Death can snap the dagger herself*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
3,9,2,10,
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
8,8,6,2,2,1,
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
8,7,
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
8,
Silkie: Her eyes roll back in her head,
she begins shuddering violently... urine can be smelled as she wets herself.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
Her knee comes down on it, the dagger snaps at
the hilt, and immediately, the presence is gone.
Victor Mendez: *Victor holds her tightly
trying to give her any amount of comfort that he can* "It will be okay" *he
whispers again in her ear*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen -> Silkie:
And just like that, it's out of her head. Leaving
only the anguish and pain it created it's wake.
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks up at baby
Death* "I think that i need to take her someplace safe" *says Victor as he moves
to stand up with Silkie in his arms*
Silkie: She goes limp suddenly, eyes open,
staring, focused on nothing. She appears to be in shock.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
It runs over, returning to the form of it's Host,
and kneels next to Silkie, checking her vitals, eyes worried and slightly
panicked. "Oh, shit, Silkie...come on, come on..."
Victor Mendez: "Can you call me a cab?"
*says Victor looking at Baby Death*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
2,8,9,3,5,
Victor Mendez: "I am going to take her to
the best damn Doctor I know in town I just need to get her there" *says Victor
with tears forming in his eyes as he looks down at Silkie*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She shoves Victor away. "Use the phone! I'll make
sure she's okay!"
Victor Mendez: *Victor calls a cab and
tells them to get here quickly before hanging up and making another phone call
to Adriana*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She checks Silkie's vitals, then goes for a
blanket off the couch, wrapping her in it. "She's okay, I think...physically,
anyway. She's in shock."
Victor Mendez: "Adriana" *Victor speaks
into the phone sounding very rattled*
phonecall -> Victor Mendez: She sounds a bit surprised
"Yes, dear? Are.. are you alright?" she's tacking at a keyboard
Victor Mendez: *Victor nods to baby Death*
"Im still going to bring her to Adriana anyway just to make sure"
Silkie: Her body feels cold and limp as
Baby moves her, to wrap her in the blanket.
Victor Mendez: "Yes im allright but a girl
that I have been associated with for a while is in a state of shock is there
anyway that I can bring her to your place and let you have a look at her?" *says
Victor sounding very frantic*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She nods to Victor, and looks into Silkie's eyes.
"Silkie, babe, you there?" She very lightly slaps the girl's cheek a couple
times, to bring her around. "Talk to me..."
phonecall -> Victor Mendez: "Umm.. " Sounds a bit rattled at this point, concerned more than anything "Of course, dear. I'll get everything ready for your arrival.."
Silkie: Her eyelids don't even flutter,
so lost to the torment within is she.
Victor Mendez: "Be there as quickly as
possible. See you soon" *he says as he hangs up the phone* "Do you want to come
with us?" *He asks as he looks at baby Death and Silkie*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She nods to Victor. "Absolutely. Come on, help me
move her."
Victor Mendez: *Victor walks over to Silkie
a craddles her in his strong arms feeling terrible at what has happened to her*
Victor Mendez: ((a=and))
Silkie: She only weighs around 90 pounds.
Probably not much of a burden for them to lift.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She gets to her feet, moving ahead of Victor to
open the door for him.
Victor Mendez: *When they get down to
the curb and the taxi Arrives Victor Slides in with Silkie craddled in his arms
and gives the driver the address*
Victor Mendez: ((do we just want to stay in
this room?))
Silkie: ((s'okay with me))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((Sure))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She's bitching the entire way for the driver to
be faster, Faster, FASTER.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana moves the
coffee table to make more room in front of the couch area. She sets up her
medkit on a nearby end table, a bit unsure of what the patient's condition is.
After throwing on a sweater and some thin white cotton gloves, she simply waits
for Victor and the others to get there, nervous.
Victor Mendez: *Victor holds Silkie the
entire way on ther verge of tears*
Silkie: Cold and limp, she doesn't so much
as twitch the entire way.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael -> Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((hmm.. seeing as how I'm not actually a
doctor.. I really have no clue what to do to someone with shock.. do you know of
a likely course of action, since I'm fairly certain adri would have training for
situations like this?))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
The driver? Bitchy. But he does get to Adriana's
place ((wherever it is. *G*))
Victor Mendez: ((Oh its in Midtown sorry
about that))
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: ((nice complex in
Midtown))
Victor Mendez: *When the car stops Victor
moves Silkie very gently out of the car and begins carrying her into what appear
to be very nice apartments up to Adriana's penthouse*
Victor Mendez: *He completly forgets about
the fact that he has to pay the driver for the ride*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen -> Dr. Adriana
Carmichael: ((Yeah, she would. Just be
generic over it. *S*))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
Baby Death pays quickly by throwing her wallet at
the cabbie before following.
Victor Mendez: *after making it to
Adriana's door Victor kicks the door seeing as he has no hands in which to
actually knock*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana's eyes widen
slightly, as the door was already open. She bolts up, motioning for Victor to
move the patient to the couch.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She follows along behind Viktor as the cabbie
tosses the wallet, sans cash, out onto the street and drives off.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen -> Dr. Adriana
Carmichael: What’s this...a Neil Gaiman
character come to life? Might as well be...if they were casting the part of
Death in a Sandman movie, she would certainly be it. She stands at about 5’9”,
maybe 110-115 pounds. Black hair and white-face certainly give the slightly
tacky illusion of a corpse...the hallmark of the gothic lifestyle, of course.
She’s really got the look down, right to the curly-Q drawn in eyeliner coming
from the outside corner of the right eye. She’s dressed in a black tank-top,
matching jeans, hip-huggers, and Doc Martins. A black girl’s formal jacket and a
parasol completes the look, along with black lipstick. Her eyes, a soft brown,
carry a keen intelligence and a biting wit, as well as a deep, deep sadness at
something unsaid. Goth girls of the world, unite! Here is your Queen!
Silkie: Skin, so pale and cold, eyes
normally a vibrant amethyst, are stark black, the pupils wide, a blue tinge
touches her lips and her breathing is shallow.
Victor Mendez: *Victor moves into the
apartment quickly and lays Silkie down on the couch* "everything is going to be
okay Silkie" *he says as he lays her down and gives Adriana room to work with
her*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She sits back, giving Adriana room and a quick
report. "I checked her vitals, nothing wrong at the time. She looked to be in
shock."
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana inhales with
a look of slight discust when she notices the stench of urine. Reguardless,
Adriana moves in close to the girl, kneeling beside her to give her a full
examination. As she works she speaks without taking her eyes off the patient
"Can you tell me what happened, Victor.."
Dr. Adriana Carmichael:
4,9,1,6,4,4,7,5,
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She gives Jenn a
slight.. look. It's not that she doesn't take the girls' word for it.. but she
does check vitals again. Just in case.
Victor Mendez: "We found a dagger and she
attempted to wake it up by dancing around it. Somthing defiently did wake up in
the dagger and then she screamed and went limp. The prescence that did this
disapated when she broke the dagger" *he says as he motions towards Baby Death*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She nods a little at Victor's words.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Her look hardens.
Not exactly the explanation she was hoping for.. maybe something pertaining to
the bringing on of the condition would be nice.. "Alright... I can't find
anything other than shock being an issue.." she continues to work the girl over,
trying her best to treat the girl for signs of shock (rolling dex+med)
Dr. Adriana Carmichael:
9,3,3,1,4,9,4,7,
Victor Mendez: "Do you think that you will
be able to help her Adriana" *says Victor as he stands back next to Baby Death*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Blinks down at the
patient "Victor, dear, if there was anything wrong with her, I might be able to
do something about it.." Her words cold and calculated "But I can't just UN
scare the shit out of her, now can I?"
Victor Mendez: *Victor stops and thinks
for a secoud before going into the kithcen and filling up a pitcher with water
and bringing the bigest bowl he can find out into to the living room next to
Silkie and pouring the water into the bowl trying to simulate the sound of water
in the wild*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She watches Victor with a strange sort of look,
as if she thinks he might have lost his mind.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Gives Victor a
strange look, then turns back to Silkie, placing a gloved hand on the girl's
forehead, trying to sooth her as best as possible "Dear.. Can you hear me?" She
eyes the girls' pupils for any signs of change.
Victor Mendez: *Victor notices the looks
but dosent care rembering Silkie love of the sea he continues moving the water
about in the bowl before droping a few drops in her hair to see if it has any
effect on how she is doing*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She reaches over to
her kit and produces a clean rag. Turning around, she dips it in Victor's bowl
of water.. at least it can serve SOME purpose.. She wrings it out and folds it,
laying it on the girl's forehead to try and cool her down a bit.
Silkie: Somewhere, deep in her mind, she
hears Hudson crying and closes her eyes, tears leaking from beneath the veil of
dark lashes.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She turns to Victor
with a none too pleased look "I think you're upsetting her, dear.. What in
heavens name are you doing?"
Victor Mendez: *victor leans close to
Silkie and whispers to her*
Silkie: She feels cool already, cold even.
Her skin is clammy.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Upset is fine." She looks to Adriana. "At least
it's an emotion. It may help."
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Her lips straighten
"Well as I said I don't think there's much I can do dear.. This seems to be more
of a matter of the mind.. not the body." She takes the rag and places it back in
the bowl.
Victor Mendez: *Victor lbacks away from
Silkie all his ideas on how to fix the situation exhausted if only people were
like walls and doors*
Silkie: Her lips move, but no sound can be
heard, fingers twitching.
Victor Mendez:
2,3,6,3,4,
Victor Mendez: *Victors eyes shoot up at
silkie* "her fingers moved"
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She keeps an eye on
the girl "How well do you know her, dear? Is there anything I could get for her
that might.. Oh hell I don't know.."
Victor Mendez: "she loves the sea which
is why I brought the water in here for her" *says Victor moving closer to
Silkie*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana stands and
moves away from the girl, still with a careful eye in case her status changes
"She probably just needs her space.. maybe some time to cope with.. whatever it
was the lot of you were playing with.." She eyes the woman she hasn't met with a
careful suspicion.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Adriana. Do me a favor. Leave the room a
moment." Her eyes move from Silkie to Victor, as a liht shines behind the eyes.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana thinks
for a moment "The sea? I'm afraid I'm fresh out of Sea, dear.." She frowns. "I
could go through my CD's.. My sister used to buy me all sorts of ridiculous
nature recordings and the like.."
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She glances at Jenn
"Beg your pardon?" The look on her face implies that she'll do no such thing.
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks at Adriana and
the back to Baby Death. Then he gives Adriana a please look, becasue if there is
anything that might be able to help Silkie he wants it tried*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Her look softens
toward Victor and reluctantly, she does leave the room. She walks down the hall
and into the guest room to check on Rocha, leaving the door open just a crack.
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks at Baby death*
"what are you going to do?"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She looks up at Adriana, and looks about to say
something before the other woman relents. She nods, then looks to Victor.
"Horror brought her here. Beauty may bring it out." She moves to help Silkie sit
up against the couch, so she's not staring straight at the ceiling, but rather,
generally toward Victor.
Victor Mendez: "what do you want me to
do?" *says Victor looking at Baby Death*
Silkie: *Slumps limply against the couch
where she's propped, her eyes still closed.*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael:
3,3,5,6,7,
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana peeks a bit
through the crack in the door, trying to hear what's going on without being too
blatanly obvious.
Victor Mendez: *Victor moves close to
Silkie and helps to prop her up on the couch* "Silkie you have to come back to
us the sea is depending on you" *He says again softly into her ear*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She does what she can to open Silkie's eyes, then
steps back. "This." And she sloughs off her Host Form, taking her true,
Apocalyptic Form.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: ((do you want me to
roll rev. since the good doc is bein nosy?))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((Yeeees, please... *G*))
Dr. Adriana Carmichael:
7,3,5,4,2,4,5,2,
Silkie: Her eyes open, and she stares
blankly, still turned within.
Victor Mendez: *Victor watches as
Jerech-Kor emerges from her host form*
Silkie:
3,7,7,8,
Victor Mendez: *Victor places his hand in
the water in the bowl and touches Silkies face not willing togive up hope
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((Guys, gimme just a few.))
Victor Mendez: ((okay))
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: ((is cool *G*))
Adriana stands wide eyed at the doorway, paying careful attention to what's
going on in her living room.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((VERY VERY Sorry, guys, just had to deal with
something for a few.))
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: ((is alright. had to
tinker anyway. *G*))
Victor Mendez: ((thats cool))
Silkie: Is propped up on the couch,
staring into the space now filled with apocalyptic baby death.
Silkie: ((that has such a cute ring to
it))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((All right, so, there's a lot about to happen,
so bear with me. About to start describing.))
Victor Mendez: "Come on Silkie come back to
us" *says Victor as he helps to prop her up on the couch*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
Baby Death's apocalypic form is that of a tall
human-like creature, indigo in color, and hairless. It's body is covered in
intricate lines and patterns of slvery blue light that shift and realign
periodically. Its eyes are bright saphirre, and a pair of swan wings erupt from
it's back. Silkie and Adriana both succeed against the Revelation and are
awestruck by it's appearance, but not in a stupor.
Silkie: Her eyes seem to travel
upwards, finally focusing on the world without as she looks upon Baby.
Victor Mendez: *Victor watches Baby Death
in here Apocalypic form as he sits next to Silkie*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
It's inspiring and awe-striking at the same time.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana leans
down to scoop up the curious persian kitten, before she can get out of the guest
room, as she doesn't need to be poking about the indigo demon. The kitten lets
out a tiny mew.
Victor Mendez: *A smile forms on Victors
face as he watches Silkies eyes moving upward*
Silkie: Her eyes take on a violet hue as
her pupils contract and she tries to focus on the vision before her.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
About this time, Reyna and Angelia (and Ingvar,
if he comes along) are heading in the door to the apartment complex.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((All right, so...there you have it. *S*))
Victor Mendez: *Victor sits next to Silkie
and smiles as she appears to be recovering*
Angelia Caponelli: (sorry guys I got a little distracted
there for a few, back)
Victor Mendez: "Silkie are you allright"
*Victor finally manages to speak hoping to hear her respond*
Silkie: Blinks, although her expression is
still dull and slack, she's at least showing some hint of awareness.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She remains standing there, looking at Silkie.
"Silkie...come back. It's all right."
Silkie: She can't seem to take her eyes
off Baby Death, making no response Victor.
Angelia Caponelli: Ang looks up at Reyna
and shifts her shoulders a little. She's in one of her delicate 'be the rose'
outfits - a long gozzy, yellow sun dress with a bit of frill and lace. She's got
white strappy sandals on and a white flower in her hair which is other wise let
down free all the way to the small of her back.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana is still
standing in the doorway, kitten in hand uttering faint mews every now and again.
"Shhhh.." she whispers down to the Rocha, still peeking as to what's going on in
her living room and waiting for Victor to give her the word that it's alright
she return.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: The Bitchmobile is
in a no parking spot as she moves up with Angelia, racing along. Harry is held
just inside her duster as she moves.
Silkie: "Cleanse me," she finally
whispers in a faint, broken rasp.
Victor Mendez: "Silkie I dont know how. Who
do I need to take you to to be cleansed" *says Victor looking at here*
Angelia Caponelli: Ang looks especially
none threatening beside Reyna. She hurries along still, beelining for the
apartment.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She steps forward, wings jostling slightly as she
crouches in front of Silkie. "Forget about him, girl. Look at me. We're here."
Silkie: "Call... Mind.." she murmurs, eyes
still on the apparition.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: Wyrmbeast invading
Body minds? Oh, she's all sorts of threatening. She's bad cop, and when they
reach the door, she shoves the door open and moves into the room.
Silkie: Blinks at Baby Death. She feels
like all the joy and energy that makes up the core of her inner being has been
wrung from her... all she can remember is pain and horror. A tear trickles down
her cheek.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: What.. more people?
Adriana thinks to herself from the guest bedroom. She watches, getting a bit
more irritated as the situation progresses.
Victor Mendez: *Victor jumps up and looks
at the people who enter the apartment* "Who are you?"
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *Someone moves behind them, up stairs
or elevators, pale eyes shimmering with a waiting, hungry sort of murder.*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((WP rolls, new entrants, as you enter the room.
*G*))
Reyna Varinia Reiruno:
3,6,8,5,3,
Ingvar Urgahaldt:
4,2,7,3,5,3,
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen -> Ingvar Urgahaldt:
Crouched in front of SIlkie is apocalypic form is
that of a tall human-like creature, indigo in color, and hairless. It's body is
covered in intricate lines and patterns of slvery blue light that shift and
realign periodically. Its eyes are bright saphirre, and a pair of swan wings
erupt from it's back.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
Again, Ingvar and Reyna both avoid going
dumbstruck by the creatures sheer beauty and awe-inspiring nature, though they
are quite impressed by it, to say the LEAST.
Victor Mendez: *Victor just stands as
the people file into the apartment*
Silkie: ((Did we lose Ang?))
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *This is too much. This
is far, far too much. Something only curling at the edges of his vision explodes
in crackling veins across his eyes as the grim shadow lord fights with
everything he has for self control.*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: When the fourth
stranger enters, Adriana decides she's had enough, throwing the door to the
guest bedroom aside and strolling into the main room "Victor, this is
ridiculous.. I demand to know what's going on.. My apartment is hardly the place
for such endeavors.." Glances about the strangers.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She stares at the
indigo thing, eyes wide, gun aimed as a precaution. "What the...?"
Angelia Caponelli : (you did sorry I'm
flighty tonight)
Ingvar Urgahaldt: ((oh- and does anybody
need a nick. I guess I forgot that one.*G*))
Angelia Caponelli :
7,1,2,10,7,
Angelia Caponelli : (that's my wp)
Ingvar Urgahaldt: ((Not nick- description,
sheesh.*L*))
Silkie: *Still staring at the sublime
being crouched in front of her, vaguely aware of other sounds, things she can't
quite seem to focus on, voices that teeter upon recognition.*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
It turns around, standing as it looks at the new
entrants, taking a wary stance. Particularly with the gun pointed at them.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((at IT.))
Firesnake -> Reyna Varinia Reiruno:
~FS~ "That is not the creature. That is a kuei-jin
of some sort I have not seen before." FS sounds very intrigued by the creature
and it's effects on the sentai and Silkie.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
Angelia, as well, is capable of action, but a tad
overwhelmed by the creature's aura and appearance.
Victor Mendez: ((Is the gun clip fed?))
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *Immediately, he tenses-
but remains still for a moment... one corner of his mouth quirks.. yes friends,
he's one scary looking wierdo at the moment, the hard planes of a not
unattractive face threaten to spill emotion around the edges, as though it were
only a mask.*((1 wp point))
Silkie: *Lifts a hand, as though reaching
for the apparition as it moves away, leaning forward and falling off the couch.*
Angelia Caponelli : She pauses in the door
looking around, studying Jenn. Her hand pulls up to her chest lightly.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: ((Nope. .44 Magnum.
Meet Harry, boys and girls.))
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Glares at the gun
toting Reyna with an obvious disapproval "Do lower your firearm, dear.."
Victor Mendez: ((Even better))
Firesnake -> Reyna Varinia Reiruno:
~FS~ "The Wyrm creature who attacked Silkie is in
that broken knife."
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She looks at
Adriana, tearing her gaze away from Baby Death with effort. "Do lower your
purple swan-man, dear."
Victor Mendez: *victor concentrates on the
fire arm as he looks at the newcomers*
Firesnake -> Reyna Varinia Reiruno:
~FS~ "Or was, shall I say. It has fled, now."
Angelia Caponelli : Ang steps into the
roomo further, ignoring Adriana and pretty much everyone. She glances around the
room, looking at the floor and hands, searching for something.
Silkie: *Face plants the floor at Baby
Death's feet.*
Victor Mendez -> Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((Victor is concentrating on the gun tryin to
release the cyilander so it will need to be put back in place before it can be
fired))
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana's sharp blue
eyes become infuriated "The only people I know are Victor and the girl" points
to silkie "The rest of you are UNinvited guests, and as such should show some
fucking manners" Glares to the indigo wonder "Do drop the wings, dear, you've
made your point.." She hisses.
Victor Mendez:
3,2,6,1,1,5,4,
Okami Yuki: (8can hop in too? ))
Okami Yuki: ((forget it *curls on the Singah
icq))
Firesnake -> Reyna Varinia Reiruno:
~FS~ "But that kuei-jin--which I have never seen
that type before, either--is now attempting to break Harry." He indicates
Victor.
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *Eventually, his voice
rumbles with cold, waiting malice through the room.* We have come for our
sister... *pale eyes skate across even the swan thing- but thats not easy. He
steps between the two of them- but Reyna still has a clear line of fire.* and we
would know what has happened to her. Now.
Angelia Caponelli : She stops and looks
straight at Victor. "Please sir, don't tamper with my friends insturments."
Victor Mendez: "I will not speak to you at
gun point, but if you are refering to Silkie we have been trying to help her.
Can you cleanse her" *says Victor walking at the gun*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen -> Victor Mendez:
((Not only does it not work, Victor loses a Faith
point. Damn botches))
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *Pale eyes flick to
Victor* Cease.. or be injured beyond the point where manners will be an issue.
*He just sounds frank- but his voice carries the unmistakeable tone of command.*
Victor Mendez: *Victor shoots a look at
Angelia* "Then tell her to put it down"
Angelia Caponelli : Her dark eyes level on
Adrianna, "We'll only be a moment Miss I assure you." She even smiles pleasently
before nodding to Reyna. "It's alright."
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She raises her
eyebrow, cocking the gun at Victor. "Back off, bi-atch. And leave Harry alone,
'less you want him to be your new boyfriend."
Victor Mendez: *Victor stares at those
gathered* "If i were worried about my self it might be an issue but the only one
im worried about here is Silkie. Now tell me can you cleanse her"
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He nods at the man's
words.* We will try. But we will reach her right now. One way or anoher. Step
aside.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
Attention off her a moment, she shrinks down,
resuming her Host Form ((DD coming)). She looks around hesitantly, warily.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana inches
toward the cabinet against the wall, where she has her own source of
self-protection, just in case it's needed. She stands watching the ordeal,
looking still infuriated more than concerned.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
What’s this...a Neil Gaiman character come to
life? Might as well be...if they were casting the part of Death in a Sandman
movie, she would certainly be it. She stands at about 5’9”, maybe 110-115
pounds. Black hair and white-face certainly give the slightly tacky illusion of
a corpse...the hallmark of the gothic lifestyle, of course. She’s really got the
look down, right to the curly-Q drawn in eyeliner coming from the outside corner
of the right eye. She’s dressed in a black tank-top, matching jeans,
hip-huggers, and Doc Martins. A black girl’s formal jacket and a parasol
completes the look, along with black lipstick. Her eyes, a soft brown, carry a
keen intelligence and a biting wit, as well as a deep, deep sadness at something
unsaid. Goth girls of the world, unite! Here is your Queen!
Victor Mendez: "How do i know you dont
want to hurt her?" *says Victor looking at Ingvar as being the only one with any
sense* "I swore I would protect her so if she goes im going with her"
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She shakes her head
solemnly, muttering "This isn't the place to speak of such things.. It isn't
safe.."
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: Once Victor stops
advancing and the purple thing becomes a goth chick, she uncocks the gun and
lowers it generally toward the ground.
Ingvar Urgahaldt: Angelia, please check on
Silkie. Reyna and I.. and our hostess, I expect.. *One dark eyebrow quirks at
the woman slightly.* Have the room. Miss. *He cocks a head and Jenn* What
~exactly~ might you be? Under different circumstances, I would not be so rude...
but whether we can help her or not depends heavily on what you are...
Silkie: So many voices... distant, muted,
but whispers against the turmoil within. She stays where she fell, hardly aware
she's on the floor, or of the smell of urine coming from her wet pants.
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *Hes almost vibrating..
the words only barely seem to emerge from his face with any coherency
whatsoever. The man is clearly not sane.*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She blinks at the
man, unsure of what assumption has just been made about her. She listens with a
cold glare to the group.
Angelia Caponelli : She watches Jenn
change and moves forwards, slowly. She's the non threatening one right? And the
smallest. She nods to Ingvar and moves to weave her way around any obstical
between herself and sister Silkie.
Firesnake -> Reyna Varinia Reiruno:
~FS~ "They are kuei-jin. Demons who have returned
from Hell and walk in human hosts."
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: "Listen, hero..."
Obvious sarcasm there, as she looks at Victor. "If we try, you can have the
purple monster there pound us into tar." Indicating Baby Death.
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He hears Victor only
distantly, and glassy eyes flick toward him before he speaks.* Listen and
watch.. Silkie herself will give you all the proof you need.... Demon. *He
almost spits it.*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She steps aside as Angelia moves to Silkie, her
eyes on Ingvar. She's outnumbered, but hey...might as well be honest, right?
"Well, it's a real long story. Short version is, I'm an angel sent to Hell for
an eternity, now back here on Earth. And I was trying to help your friend there,
who got attacked by a powerful demon."
Victor Mendez: *Since th gun has been
lowered Victor looks at Ingvar and spaeks* "She tried to awaken a spirt within a
dagger and I beleive that it lashed out at her, but we could feel the
malevolence within it even if we could not see it. The malevolence ceased when
the dagger was broken, but it left Silkie in a state of shock. Answer me this
can you help my friend?" *says Victor staring at Ingvar* "I am no Demon sir. the
thing that did this to her was a demon but not I"
Angelia Caponelli : Ang leans down and
touches Silkie's arm lightly, "Silkie... sweetie.." She says softly, rolling her
over as gently as she can. She begins to check her for injury.
Angelia Caponelli :
5,7,4,3,10,
Angelia Caponelli : (that's per + med)
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She blinks. This is
a new one for her. "Wow. I really have heard it all, now." She grins, a tiny
bit.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"And I broke the dagger." It's said as an aside,
almost defensively. "We were trying to help."
Silkie: No injuries, although she
appears to have wet her pants.
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He nods almost
graciously to Jenn.. something battering at the edges of his composure, but the
strangely frightening hungarian does well enough... one would guess.* Thank you,
madam. *His eyes don't stop passing between Victor and Jenn warily, but he keeps
a wary guard over Angelia.*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: "Of what authority
do the lot of you break in here and start demanding information?" Glancing about
the group, still ticked but genuinely curious to the answer.
Angelia Caponelli : She nods to Jen a
little as she works, "Where is it now? Thihs dagger?"
Victor Mendez: "The dagger is in the Bronx
we brought her here so that Adriana could look at her and see if there was
anything she could do" *says Victor watching the group and moving closer to
Silke protectively*
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *His attention passes to
Reyna.. he even turns slightly to hide his expression from the others. His eyes-
only for a moment- flicker in a silent plea for the Voice to take over the
talking now.*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She nods at Victor's words. "The dagger was
nothing once we broke it. Just an object. Silkie was what needed to be worried
about."
Angelia Caponelli : (Silkie's super tiny
right?)
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She nods to Ingvar,
and steps forward, smiling to Adriana. "Hey. How are ya? No offense, but when
our lil' sis here is attacked by a malevolant spirit, we tend to get a tad
protetive. So on that authority, we're asking some questions. You cool with
that?"
Silkie: (about 90 pounds)
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Blinks at the
woman "If I weren't fairly sure that this place was being watched by the union,
I'd be far.. cooler with it."
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"The what?" She looks at Adriana.
Angelia Caponelli : Ang who is small
herself but very strong for her size, slips an arm under Silk's shoulders and
knees and does her best to ignore the urine smell. "Ir's alright sweetie, we'll
have you home safe soon." She murmers as she gets up gracelessly, carrying the
girl.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She steps up to
Adriana, patting her cheek with a smile. "Well, we'll have to make due with
semi-cool, then."
Victor Mendez: *victor moves over near
Angelia and kneels* "Is she going to be okay?" *He says tears forming in his
eyes despite all his efforts to hold them back*
Silkie: "Cleanse me," she murmurs to Ang,
limp in her arms.
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He continues to thrum
with a quiet unease.. over time as voices wash across his perception, speaking
plainly, using words that startle but have nothing to do with the storm
threatening him he seems to begin to calm.. but that crazed, distant sort of
light remains an ember that colors him in tones that warn against too much
contact.*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She sighs and
glares over to Jenn "It's none of your concern.. But this ISN'T a safe place..
I've said that on numerous accounts but no one will fucking listen to me.." she
hisses toward the gothic female.
Angelia Caponelli : She nods a bit to
Silkie, "I will honey, when we're some where safe." She nods to Victor.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"I didn't bring us here," she looks to Adriana, a
bit of anger rising, and gestures to Victor. "He called you, you said it was
good to come over. He asked if I was coming. So stop bitching at me."
Victor Mendez: *Victor looks at the new
arrivals* "I promised that I would protect her so if she is leaving here I am
going with her"
Angelia Caponelli : Ang starts to the door
with Silkie, frankly, not carrying too much about the bickering what-ever-they-ares.
Victor Mendez: *Victor not even pay
attention to the bitching females moves to follow Silkie*
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He finally settles on
something to say. That strangely resonant voice washes through the room again as
he focuses on Jenn.* If you are a demon.. why were you beautiful?
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Icy glare to Jenn
"Then your lot in this ordeal is complete.. Why are you still here?"
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: "You. Homeless the
Clowny Demon-thing. Your bus stop's here, a'ight? Because the Bitchmobile
doesn't have room for you. Silk'll be fine with us."
Angelia Caponelli : "No you're not." She
says softly to Victor. "You've gotten her to us. We'll take care of her. Thank
you for helping her. I'm sure we'll be seeing you in the near future."
Victor Mendez: "She had best be because if
she is not I will show you just what I can do" *says Victor staring Reyna in the
eyes* "and that toy your carrying wont make a damn bit of diffrence"
Ingvar Urgahaldt: Sir. *He looks at
Victor* We will not for a moment discuss whether or not you accompany our
sister. The discussion is ended- and I would hope without violence. Rest assured
such would follow should you attempt to come with us.. when it is contact with
you that has damaged her in the first place.
Victor Mendez: *Victor turns and walks back
over to Baby Death and Adriana having said his peace*
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He waits until the
others are through the door, and appears not to intend to turn his back on the
crew of them.*
Angelia Caponelli : "Ingvar, hun, can you
get the door for me?" She asks, sort of struggling with the arm load of Silkie
she's determined to get out of the 'being spied on bt the union' apartment.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She blinks to
Ingvar. At least someone was handling this maturely "Thank you, dear. If you
need anything else.. obviously you know where to find me.."
Angelia Caponelli : And heads out once the
door is open.
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
"Because she's still here." Indicating Silkie.
"When she goes, I'll go my own way."
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: "Try it, Smelly
Cat. You'll see just what I can do." She smiles at Victor, without MUCH malice,
and waits until Ingvar, Ang, and Silkie are gone, then moves to follow.
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Gives a sarcastic bitchly smile to baby death when silkie is being toted out the door.
Silkie -> Reyna Varinia Reiruno:
((Smelly Cat? *L*))
Victor Mendez: *Victor stalks out to the
balconey to watch the Silkie and the rest leave and strikes his fist hard on the
ground* "What could I have done diffrently to stop this" *he says to himself*
Angelia Caponelli : No witty banter here.
Ang beelines for the bitchmobile.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno -> Silkie: ((Yes,
Smelly Cat!))
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
She stands there, watching Victor, sighing sadly.
"Son of a bitch..."
Victor Mendez: *victor strikes the ground
again almost wishing it would give*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: Once down to the
street, she pulls the ticket off the Bitchmobile's window and pulls the door
open for Angelia to et Silkie in.
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *Eventually, they get
out the door. Ingvar's attention firmly on their surroundings as they leave..
dimly he wonders if he seems strange.. but the eerie silence continues.*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana glances out
on the balcony when she hears Vic beating the ground. Her lips straighten and
she steps in that direction, leaving the glass doors slightly open and stepping
behind the man to place a delicate hand on his shoulder "Dear.."
Victor Mendez: *Victor watches them from
the balconey hoping that these people would not hurt her*
Angelia Caponelli : Ang climbs into the
back, and lays Silkie down on the floor. "We need to take her some place safe to
clean her."
Victor Mendez: *Victor slams his fist into
the ground again this time causing one of his knuckles to bleed* "I couldnt fix
it" *he says were Adriana can hear though it was more said for himself than
anyone else*
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
The situation gone, she slips quietly out the
door, heading out herself. Taking her time, so as not to upset the army-like
squad that just took Silkie off.
Silkie: *Curls up into a fetal position
where she's laid.*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She lets her lips
curl into a frown "Scaring the hell out of my neighbors won't help a thing,
dear.. Why don't you come inside.. I'll fix you something to drink and we can
talk about it.." She leans in to kiss the back of the man's neck, trying to calm
him down a bit.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She slides into the
driver's seat and starts it up. "Floor 37? Worked in the past...or the
penthouse."
Victor Mendez: *Victor just sits there
crying a bit before standing* "I should leave before I bring harm upon you as
well"
Angelia Caponelli : Ang sits down near
Silkie, rubbing her back lightly, "It's going to be alright Silk... just a few
more minutes and we'll get you all clean then I'll fill the jacuzzi with salt
water and you can soak a while."
Angelia Caponelli : "Her apartment will
be fine."
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *Ingvar gets in the
bitchmobile. Screw the vehicle parked down the street. Though he is hiding it
better and better, the Judge does not seem in any condition to drive.*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: "Cool. High-ho,
Bitchmobile, away..." She pulls onto the street and heads toward home.
Silkie: *Nothing from her, she just
lies there, tucked into a tiny ball.*
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She lets out a soft
sigh, standing as well "So after all this I don't even get an explanation.." She
walks back into the kitchen area "You know victor I think I've been taking these
matters quite well all things considered.."
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
9,9,7,4,
Angelia Caponelli : (to the kr res for us
then?)
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
Once the van is gone, she slips onto the street
and heads off, beinding the light around her into camoflauge. She doesn't want
to be seen right now.
Victor Mendez: *victor walks in and sits
down* "The woman with me when I brought Silkie is Baby Death she is one of us.
As to the goons who took her away I have no fucking clue who they are" *says
Victor looking at Adriana*
Silkie: ((off 2 KR))
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: "Silkie.. Baby
Death.. Don't you have any normal friends, dear?" She pours herself a glass of
grey goose and grabs a second glass for Victor "Just milk this evening, dear or
are you feeling advanturous?"
Victor Mendez: *Victor just looks down at
the ground* "Straight vodka will be fine"
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Nods, a bit
surprised and pours the man his own glass of grey goose. She walks to the couch
and sits, handing the glass to Victor "I'm sure she'll be fine, dear.."
Victor Mendez: "Im not normal Adriana so
why do you think that my friends should be, and as I recall one of your friends
is named Snyde" *says Victor as he turns to look at her* "Look Adriana Im sorry
for everything that went on here"
Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((Thanks for the scene, guys. FUn times...sorry
'bout the delays!))
Victor Mendez: ((aint no problem well
thabks for running it for us))
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She smiles "Snyde is
a common adjective.. it's not his real name, just the one he uses for his
profession." She takes a sip from her glass, leaning into the man slightly "It's
alright, dear I know you had only the best of intentions.."
-> Jenn "Baby Death" Ilsen:
((Hey, you had a lot to coordinate there. Great job. Thanks!))
Dr. Adriana Carmichael: ((glad that I could
be involved.. *G* tehe))
Ingvar Urgahaldt: ((T'was groovy! crazed,
but groovy.*G*))
KNECHT-RITTER BUILDING
Angelia Caponelli: Ang gets Ingvar to
carry Silkie up to the suite and heads to her room to get her theurgy things.
Okami Yuki: ((mher.. ehr... she'll be waiting
for you all at the loby, entrance all regal but with that slight look of
worriness on*
Angelia Caponelli: THen meets them in the
suite Silk usually stays in.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She moves alongside
Ang and Ingvar, a look of amused bewilderment on her face. "Well, you certainly
don't see THAT every day," she comments to Angela and Ingvar on the way up. A
warm smile goes to Okami. "Hey, hon."
Okami Yuki: *the assian lady will frown,
but move to them. bowing her head to them, looking then to Reyna, stating* how
is she? *she'll ask what happened when Silkie is fine*
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *Something is not right.
He simply accepts Silkie's weight, glassy eyed. He carries her sort of like a
sack of potatoes.. in a daze. Something in my arms? Yes. Carry.. follow.. just
leave me to my thoughts.*
Silkie: Silkie's suite is pretty much
empty. There's nothing in it indicating Silkie spends any time there, much less
sleeps there.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: "Needs cleansing,"
she answers once they get in the suite. She lights a cigarette and takes her
lean against the wall.
Okami Yuki: *she'll move, frowning
slightly more at the sight of the apartment, pushing that off, looking to
Ingvar, then to Silkie, then to Reyna, interrogative, even as she nods* I..'ll
bring a blanket for her *seeing there is nothing, starting to move for it*
Silkie: *does a good imitation of a sack
of potatos*
Angelia Caponelli: "Just set her down on
the floor. Reyna, maybe you can go into the bathroom. There should be a box of
sea salt in there?" She starts unpacking sponges and bottled water. Yeah
Glasswalker cleansings - no twigs here.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: ((FYI, Reyna and
Angelia remember only basic details of the events while Baby Death was in her
non-human form. Busted in, Silkie hurt, got her, some arguing, got out, et
cetera. Ingvar has very little recollection of what occured...just that they
went in, something extraodrinary happened, they left with Silkie. All based on
the WP rolls for Revelation.))
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She nods to Angelia. "On it, Babe." She heads toward the bathroom, leaving her cigarette on a kitchen counter top before entering the room, looking for the sea salt.
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He looks around
briefly.. not really there, and unresponsive. He carries the girl into the
bedroom- lying her gently on the bed and simply looking at her for a while..
watching not her still form, but the framework of his perception of life shift
and twist.. forcing accomodation for something he fears like nothing else..
powerful hands eventually pull a blanket over her, almost an afterthought and he
moves away*
Okami Yuki: *well still a time after she'll
be scorted with a young famale assian -just- to the door- with a futon and
blankets.. the kin will just leave by the door, Okami bringing the things in,
and for now settling them appart, joyining with Reyna, out of the way of
cleansing, just worried over them*
Ingvar Urgahaldt: ((groovy))
Okami Yuki: ((rather not futon, jsut blakets))
Ingvar Urgahaldt: ((edit that to say lays
her on the floor, omit blanket if there isn't one.))
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She returns with
the sea salt, handing it to Angelia with a smile. After that, she steps back,
next to Ingvar. She leans in and whispers to him.
Silkie: *Flops limply where she's laid,
hoping someone will tear Hell from her mind.*
Angelia Caponelli: (gotcha)
Okami Yuki: ((*giggles* if there is not bed
asuming what Silkie said of not furniture, then there WILL be a futon and many
blankets))
Reyna Varinia Reiruno -> Ingvar Urgahaldt:
"You look like you've seen a ghost, Ingvar. You
a'ight?"
Angelia Caponelli: She looks at the box
and hands it back to Reyna, "Fill up the bath tub and poor some in. She likes
that."
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She blinks at
Angelia, then nods, taking the salt. "Okay."
Angelia Caponelli: Ang then crackls opened
the water bottle. Pulls back the blanket that's been put on Silkie and asks for
room before beginning the rite.
Angelia Caponelli:
9,5,6,9,9,8,2,8,
Angelia Caponelli: (woot!)
Silkie: ((damn, nice roll))
Okami Yuki: *and then she wishpers once* what
can i do to help *though she'll only speak that once, if there is no answer
she'll leave them work. Mirror skills are not hers*
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *His eyes flick into
Reyna's harshly... it takes a moment for them to focus as the dour man remains
motionless.. his attention moves to her lips, as though watching the words come
out, then back to her eyes. There's a clear glare there.. as though whatever is
wrong, ~she~ did it. Then his attention moves back to silkie as he slowly,
slowly shakes his head.*
Okami Yuki: *Looking momentarily to Reyna and
Ingvar*
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *When someone tells him
what to do, it gets done wordlessly. When they dont, he does not move.*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: WELL. She throws
Ingvar a look, one that says 'WE'LL be talking later,' and heads off with the
bath salts to fill the tub.
Angelia Caponelli: Ends up in crinos
and howls a frightening how to scare the evil right out of Silkie.
Silkie: *She might piss herself again, if
she weren't already on empty. Her body shudders and eyes fly open... going
round... too round, bulging literally from her skull, hair snaking wildling then
plastering to her skull as her pale skin begins to darken.*
Angelia Caponelli: Ang looks down over her
when she's done and drops down to glabro, "Silkie.. it'll be alright you just
gotta let the bad out."
Okami Yuki: *frowns, controlling not to
launch forwards to check on Silkie, tenses, just moving where she can be if
needed, near Angelia, but out of her way*
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *His entire body
clenches as Angelia performs the rite, jaw to toes. Then back to...just...
nothing.*
Silkie: Her mouth widens and she slowly
turns black with a mottling of gray, skin taking on a rubbery oil slick look to
it. Fingertips widen to round little disks and she looks like some bizarre cross
between a girl and frog, freshly emerged from an oil spill.
Silkie: A gasp, her body jerks and then
she lies there, gulping for air... or perhaps, water.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: Water fills the
tub...she smokes in the bathroom, puzzling over the whole thing. What the fuck
was all that about, again?
Okami Yuki: *frowns not understanding what
is going with them, but for now, quiet, at Silkie... status*
Angelia Caponelli: She starts pulling off
Silkie's clothes quickly but gently, "Ingvar. I need a hand."
Okami Yuki: *sighs softly, she was not
mentioned but she does move to help Angelia get Silkie off the clothes.. unless
told off*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: "Everything okay
out there?" She shuts the water off and moves out of the bathroom, looking in
the bedroom door.
Silkie: *Utterly genderless the
creature twists and squirms.*
Angelia Caponelli: She nods to Okami and
keeps pulling clothes off, "Got that tub full Reyna?"
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He starts moving toward
Angelia without even looking first. Yes yes- but the bees in his head.. the bees
in his head have to stop. He hates the bees... they're impolite... he hates
impolite... he waits to be told what to do.*
Silkie: *Weakly tries to wriggle free of
her clothes, of them, she can smell the water.*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: "Sure do."
Okami Yuki: *just keeps putting the girl's clothes off, frowning slightly then coming it... is new but... whispering* I'll make clean clothes be sent here from where she is out of the bath *still not moving to do so right now*
Angelia Caponelli: "Get her in the
water." She says as she pulls the last off.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She steps in the
bathroom long enough to toss the smoke in the toilet, and moves to help get
Silkie into the tub.
Silkie: *Seems to be trying to get to
the bathroom on her own. Her body is slick and slippery, grabbing her is like
trying to keep your grip on an eel.*
Angelia Caponelli: Ang stands back
watching uneasily. Not sure if she can even help at this point.
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *at this, he seems to
know what to do.. He reaches down and cradles Silkie precisely- almost as though
having levered 90 pound eels into and out of bathtubs before.*
Okami Yuki: ((mhe.. so gotta roll? *S*))
*she'll frown slightly more, just trying to hold the girl to mover her,
wishpering* Calm Silkie khun... we are on it
Okami Yuki: *and so lets Ingvar do it...*
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He's quite gentle, and
places her in it carefully before moving back into the living room.*
Silkie: *Apparently Ingvar has eeling
experience, as he manages to lift her wriggly form.* ((naaa, no need))
Silkie: *splashes into the water and lies
there, submerged*
Okami Yuki: ((*pokes*)) *she regards ingvar
taking her in, looks to Angelia, then to the bathroom, sighis and speaks softly*
are you fine Caponeli san?
Angelia Caponelli: Ang moves inside the
bathroom once Silkie's in and looks down into the tub with obvious concern.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She stands back by
Angelia, patting her on the shoulder. "Good job, soul doctor." She gives the
woman a grin that's anything but unkind.
Silkie: Yes, she's a frog girl. Maybe
she's really were-frog. She could have lied about being a were-goldfish.
Okami Yuki: *moving just where she can keep
an eye on them all, not crowding*
Angelia Caponelli: She looks up at
Reyna and smiles weakly, "I thinks he'll be alright if she just lays in there a
while. We might have to change the water to keep it oxiginated. Or get a pump...
like for a fish tank. I"m not sure how long she'll be in there."
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She watches, her
smile fading a little, forehead creasing at some coyote thought or another.
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: "I'll keep an eye
on her, Babe. I can change the agua."
Silkie -> Reyna Varinia Reiruno: ((What
temp did she run the water?))
Angelia Caponelli: She takes a deep breath
and nods. "We can take turns."
Ingvar Urgahaldt: She will be just fine.
*It rumbles into the room quietly... and completely empty.* I will need to leave
now. I will not be available, but I will be unharmed. *He doesn't precisely look
at them- but... holy... he's waiting for permission.*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno -> Silkie: ((It was
salt water, so I figure lukewarm.))
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: "Ingvar." She looks
at him, her face sincere, not mocking or even slightly amused. Just relaxed.
"Can I talk to you for just a few before you go?"
Silkie: *Curls up into a little froggy oil
slick ball.*
Okami Yuki: *she blinks, looking to Ingvar, a
look to the ones in the baathroom, before moving to him, she is all the kin not
to break personal space but she does moves to be right on his sight, even
reaching for a 'faint' touch to call his atention* Do you need anything
Urgahaldt san *polite, not untrusive way of sayiing 'here if you need it'*
Angelia Caponelli: She looks over to Invar
with a worried frown. "Mind, what's wrong?"
Angelia Caponelli: (Ingvar even. Wow I
can't type)
Angelia Caponelli: (pokes around for signs
of life?)
Okami Yuki: ((waiting on Ing post...))
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: ((What the Okami
said.))
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *The manners remain precisely intact. As though directed by a marionette, the young Judge responds to them both with the smooth effeciency of clear and dilligent practice.. but its not right.. almost programmed. First he addresses Okami, bowing slightly- perfectly for his age and station in Japanese society.* I am well Okami-san. But thank you. *Then addresses Reyna* Of course, madam... here?
Ingvar Urgahaldt (Randelle Manor): ((aaah!*L*
Almost locked up.*G*))
Angelia Caponelli: She doesn't look
particularly like she thinks that Ingvar is 'fine'. She sighs softly and moves
over to crouch near the tub, looking in on the froggy Silkie.
Okami Yuki: ((*pokes Ingvar!*))
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She shrugs. "Here,
there, anywhere. You're call, Mind o' Mine."
Ingvar Urgahaldt (Randelle Manor): *He
seems to consider Angelia's question though.. then finally answers with* I need
rest...
Silkie: *curled up in the water, unmoving*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: ((*Watches the K-R
get bought out and become Randelle Manor* *G*))
Okami Yuki: *she frowns still more, but
nods, saying again softly* Remember Urgahaldt san we are here... *she tilts her
head, having to regard him upwards* you are not alone, not anymore *hoping those
words sink, but without him opening to them... there is not much they can do...
maybe Reyna can actually bring some help. She nods, regarding him a moment more
before moving over to Angelia and Silkie*
Ingvar Urgahaldt (Randelle Manor): *He
seems slowly to grow increasingly upset. He still does not look at all pleased
when his eyes meet Angelia or Reyna.. but it seems dim for now.*
Angelia Caponelli: "I'll come see you
in the morning then Ingvar." She reaches into the water carefully to touch the
Silkie thing's back and make sure she's still alive in there.
Ingvar Urgahaldt (Randelle Manor): ((*L*
you people are messing wit mah bastard!*G* Is fun.*nods*))
Silkie: *Had to tell, since it doesn't
move at the contact and its skin is the same luke warm temperature as the
water.*
Okami Yuki: ((we'll make of tha bastard a
good puppy!!! eh... kind of... hope?))
Ingvar Urgahaldt: ((whoops))
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She nods her head
to the bedroom. "Talk in there?"
Angelia Caponelli: (how big is she
now?)
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He nods to Reyna- the
mounting unease washed under a tide of enforced, mannerly pretension. He leans
toward her slightly as though sharing a mild confidence.* Here is fine, but I
really must be going...
Ingvar Urgahaldt: ((Mod that- he says he
must be going, then moves to follow her.))
Okami Yuki: *moves to sit in that clasical
'kneeling-sitting' position Japanesse have, a last look over Ingvar and Reyna,
worried, then to Angelia, do stating again* are YOU fine Caponelli san?
Silkie: *No apparent gills, just slick
rubbery skin, but it twitches as she keeps touching it.*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She nods and moves
into the bedroom, to talk to him, quietly.
Silkie: (Just a little bit smaller than
her human size)
Reyna Varinia Reiruno -> Ingvar Urgahaldt:
Once inside the bedroom, she turns and looks at
him. "So what'd I do, Ingvar?" It's not an accusation, but rather a question.
Angelia Caponelli: Just keeps rubbing it's
back lightly then in the water, "I'm worried and scared Okami. About so many
things."
Okami Yuki: *She nods, her eyes darting to
where the other two are moving, she understands the worried, and then to Angelia
speaking softly* I am here to listen, when, if you need it *the assian lady
leaving the space for personaly space and privace to be drawn... but offering
what she can, looking again to Silkie frog*
Silkie: *Twitches now and then, but
remains under the water.*
Angelia Caponelli: "Aren't you worried too
Okami? Silkie's a fucked up frog, Ingvar's acting very strange and Trevor's....
I don't even know where to start."
Silkie:
1,6,4,5,
Okami Yuki: I am worried *nods, her eyes
resting on Silkie* but I must trust Silkie khun and Urgahalt san are capable of
dealing with things *looking to her* or ask for help. If I do not trust, then my
heart will sink in the darkness of solitude and paranoid *smiles softly* All we
can do for our brother and sister is way Caponelli san, and remind complete
while they seek peace to be theirs again *falling silent a moment* as per
Tomodachi Trevor... my heart is to confused and misshapen to speak, and i
-still- do not know what Couple Love is to be able to say anything *looking back
to her*
Okami Yuki: *Moving to let her hand wander
over the surface of the water, never touching, Japanesse and their concept of
space, more on her manner of rasing* shhhe Silkie khun... we are here
Angelia Caponelli: Ang looks down at the
water apologetically and keeps stroking, "I don't mean it in a bad way love I'm
worried about you in here..."
Silkie: *Curls up a little tighter.*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno -> Ingvar Urgahaldt:
She blinks, taken aback by the malevolance coming
off of the man. She opens her mouth to retort something, then shuts it. A sigh
escapes. "You know...you asked me, a while back, that if I found you in need of
humility, you would hope I'd talk to you about it outright. I hope you can do
the same back to me."
Okami Yuki: ((way=wait))
Angelia Caponelli: "Shush Silkie... I'm
sorry."
Ingvar Urgahaldt -> Reyna Varinia Reiruno:
*His jaw clenches, then he stretches his mouth..
as though his teeth hurt, or preventing a nervous habit. He looks at the woman
again, considering, then speaks.* There is a thing that has happened to me. A
violation of who I am. I have met a creature that makes everything I am, and
everything around me seem different. I have to address this inside. Inside me.
*his nose crinkles briefly.* And deal with it. Then I will be proper again.
Silkie: Why do they keep telling her
shhh and shush, she hasn't made a sound.
Okami Yuki: *Looks at the girl again,
sighing, casting another glance to Angelia* to I do not know what happened over
the Silkie khun being in danger, so I must wait until you and the others have
processed things enough to comunicate *looking back at the tiny frog girl* maybe
she would eat chocolate under water?
Angelia Caponelli: She thinks a minute, "I
don't thinks he could eat it under water but maybe you could get some chocolate
so there's some for her when she wants to come out?"
Okami Yuki: *She nods, knowing no further
comment on the subject for Angelia means she is not ready for speaking either,
and rises* I will be back with them and clothes for when she comes out *starting
her way to the door*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno -> Ingvar Urgahaldt:
That draws a look of naked concern to her eyes.
She merely nods, though, and smiles a little. "All right. Well, don't forget,
you've got brothers and sisters who can help you, Ingvar. Us." She nods. "And
all you need to do is say the word. Now please...go, deal with your personal
business. We'll be waiting, should you need us."
Angelia Caponelli: She looks up after
Okami, "Sister?"
Okami Yuki: *she halts, looking to Angelia *
yes?
Angelia Caponelli: "Thank you."
Okami Yuki: *smiles, shaking her head,
saying softly* Is what Family is for Shisuta
Silkie: ((And I need to get some sleep. I
don't figure Silkie will be coming out of the water any time soon. Will she be
left alone at any time?))
Ingvar Urgahaldt -> Reyna Varinia Reiruno:
*He lifts a finger in brief animation- it seems
only a continuance of the marionette behavior.* That- that is from a movie. I
have seen it. *he nods a bit* American. Puppets, or somesuch. And a homosexual
with very large hair. David something. All will be well. *He nods, and turns to
go, moving toward the door deep in thought.. but ever graceful.*
Angelia Caponelli: She nods. "Thank you
still."
Angelia Caponelli: (I think they're going
to take shifts watching her. And they'll have some chocolate available for her
if she does come out any time)
Okami Yuki: ((Okami is soon going to sen
dAngleia and Rayna to rest actually and do the guard on silkie all night, while
they rest and figure out things ;) ))
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *He comes out of the
bedroom and moves across the living room smoothly. a brief aside nod, and he
makes to move out the door.*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno -> Ingvar Urgahaldt:
She seems truly perplexed, as the Mind throws out
a pop culture reference SHE doesn't get. She just lets him go, following behind
after a moment.
Okami Yuki: *smiles more to Angelia, a
soft gesture, nodding, taking it* As i sais urgahalt san Shisuta, we are not
alone anymore... that is Sentai *moving for now to get the things, making a
brief gesture again to ingvar*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She walks out a few
moments after Ingvar, looking...well, like most people do after talking to her.
Highly perplexed, and not entirely sure the person that she's talked to is
exaclty sane.
Angelia Caponelli: She looks over to
Reyna, "Everything alright?"
Ingvar Urgahaldt: *gone*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: She looks to
Angelia. "I...have no fuckin' clue, Babe. At ALL."
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: "But I trust him.
So there you go." She smiles a little.
Okami Yuki: *and she will come back to set
the clean clothes near the futton, a large towel with robe to the bathroom and a
good load of chocolates, smiling softly again to both women in the bathroom*
Reyna Varinia Reiruno: ((And I gotta
go...this has been the scene that never ends for me. I'll see y'all
later...thanks for de scenage!))
Okami Yuki: ((*snugs Jer* thank ya!!! and
again Okami WILL send the two to rest, not taking a no for answer, ensureing she
will remind all night with Silkie but Reyna and angelia NEED to rest))
