Session Start: Sat Jul 12 20:49:26 2003 Session Ident: #pvpexaltedrp2 [20:49] * Now talking in #pvpexaltedrp2 [20:49] * ChanServ changes topic to 'Exalted: Here comes the man with that look in his eye, fed on nothing but full of pride, look at them go, look at them kick, makes you wonder how the other half dies. (DryNakedFiat)' [20:51] Here I be, GH. And you need to click done. ^_^ [20:51] heh [20:52] * Cicada spent 2 motes to send that last two sentences to Jynary in the next room. Just to warn him to be truly angry, but not quite go KILLTHEFUCKINGTRAITOR [20:52] A golden glow fills the room as he squeezes your hands, ancient runes floating through the air as he seals your promise, and then kisses your forehead gently, the doors opening at a wave for him to see the other exalts awaiting you. -- You can see motes of solar essence floating in the air, Jynaru, but you are unsure of what they are before they wink out. [20:53] * Cicada 's plans (whatever they might be ;) would be sorely undone should she die by Jynification. [20:55] Damned decievers... [20:55] Ah, well. You don't decieve anyone when you're dead! [20:55] jynaruifaction? [20:56] Yea, or whatever his 100+ dice attacks are called. [20:56] well, it's only a hundred until I hit the last spec. [20:56] Exactly a hundred for 5 shots at 20 each. [20:56] I know what it is. i'm just wondering if you're going to do it or not ? _^^ [20:56] And then a few WP. ;) [20:57] Nah. Archery is tactical. [20:57] MA is nice, visceral, and Tigery. [20:58] Besides, she can SAE bloom. ^_^ [20:58] hmmmm [20:58] Uuuhhh... no? [20:58] your turn to move fiat. [20:58] No SAE? [20:58] That is Rayana. [20:59] But... but... no SAE? [20:59] mwahahahahah! [20:59] Hey! Cicada never was a toe-to-toe fighter, ok? [21:00] SAE is DODGE! [21:00] * Storybastard is now known as Storyteller [21:00] You don't get hit! Ranged, melee, whatever! [21:00] Right. Strangulation it is. [21:00] * Cicada is strangulated. [21:03] * Cicada (Hikari@62.79.86.118.ppp1-1.vir.tiscali.dk) Quit (gryphon.magicstar.net linuxguy.magicstar.net) [21:03] * Disconnected [21:03] * Rejoined channel #pvpexaltedrp2 [21:11] so what now? [21:12] I suppose Bloom leads Cic back in the audience room? [21:12] Or was it somewhere else? [21:12] yea, they're back in the atrium [21:12] with the furries. [21:12] And Jynaru, etc [21:13] * Vanal (~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3496765.sympatico.ca) has joined #pvpexaltedrp2 [21:13] * Cicada walks hand in hand with Red Bloom and sends Jynaru a superior stare with a thriumphant smile. [21:14] * Cicada has already planned most of this with Sanyet so he can play her servant/lover convincingly. [21:14] (damn, did he object..) [21:14] * Jynaru looks at red bloom consideringly. [21:15] * *Red* Bloom is da man [21:15] * Jynaru looks at Cicada consideringly. [21:15] Is bloom carrying anything? [21:16] nothing you can see. [21:18] he's wearing a red cloak, and holding Cicada's hand. He has a jewled ring on one hand, and a circlet on his head, under his hair, not really disguised but you have to look carefully to see it. [21:19] Right. Motherfucker gonna die. [21:19] *cues it up... waits... MORTAL KOOOOMBAAAAAT!* [21:20] (Round One. Fight ?) [21:20] I shall now stunt. Because I am bad like that. [21:21] mmmmm [21:22] * Cicada turns to Red Bloom. "My master, do you not often have your hands full to your best ability with this menagerie?" [21:22] * Cicada sends "do" "not" "your" "best ability" to Jynary. [21:23] (4 motes?) [21:23] (what is it, per word?) [21:24] (per sentence, but this one is a complicated use) [21:24] (2 motes) [21:24] (ok) [21:24] * Jynaru stands up from the crouch, takes the shortest possible of bows that can still be considered a bow, and snaps into action, eating up the distance between himself and the pair in a few lengthy strides, flare of essence indicating charm use as he dives, spinning midair as he passes between the two, slamming a forearm into the far side of cicada's head as he simultaneously strikes out with a [21:24] * Jynaru knee into Bloom's face, skidding to a halt at the end of the hallway with a rather feral look on his face. [21:24] (still all personal, good old Puuhda :) [21:25] Hurray for APF. [21:25] <*Bloom*> "No, it is just a hobby, everyone has to do something to relax." he smiles at one with feathers sticking out of her skin, blindsided by Jynaru's attack. (+2 stunt, no roll) [21:26] (Errr... no roll?) [21:26] take it back in motes. Guess I won't be limit breaking any time soon. ^_^ [21:26] Jynaru's knee slams into blooms face, the attack unexpected, but not unprepared for - your knee throbs from the strength of his skin, and as he looks up to you from the floor, you see his skin turning back to white from gold [21:27] And the cicada attack? [21:27] If there's a roll for that, make it. [21:27] I get two MA attacks, hence I add veracity to it. [21:27] !ex 10 [21:27] * *Jynaru (10)* 8, 1, 8, 8, 7, 1, 10, 5, 5, 7, Successes : 7 [21:28] ok, so you are attacking Cicada? [21:28] One attack on bloom, one on cicada. Cicada attack held, bashing. [21:28] ok [21:28] Cicada do you abort to a defense? [21:28] (sure. dodge) [21:29] roll it, stunt if you like. [21:29] and GH? Can you not do all black text with my black background?

[21:30] * Storyteller isn't going to now, it shouldn't even show the dice rolls. don't worry about it, fix it later. [21:30] Ah. Just waiting on soak.

So you are a traitor even unto your friend, Jynaru." Bloom glares angrily from the floor and slowly rises, his robes billowing behind him as the women shrink back to he wall. "But you shall not now escape from my wrath." [21:32] * Jynaru snarls at him. "I don't know what you did to her, but it won't last long deciever. You can't lie when you're dead!" [21:33] "Oh, but I can. And I will." init!

[21:36] I'd kinda think that to know an MA style, you'd call back on your MA training, but whatever. [21:36] yea, i suppose so. enough sux though. [21:37] nah. you haven't seen this one used yet. But now you have seen your first practitioner of Mantis style. [21:37] no longer need a roll to ID it. [21:38] Bully for him. Enter form and a single attack. [21:40] * Jynaru springs forwards, hands scraping the floor as they send a spray of sparks at bloom, feet disrupting the careful stance of the anathema has he rises up, booted feet thudding across Bloom's chest as he flips back, delivering a thunderous strike to his temple as he spins in the air, arc of blood from the claws slowly falling to earth even as he sets into motion for his next strike. [21:41] Bloom is fast enough to dodge your attack AND grab one foot with his hands with incredible speed, blurring even as he moves. suddenly he spins around, your foot snaps with the speed of his movements and with a sudden flourish, twists you over his shoulder and slams you against the wall.

[22:02] (would it be proper for Cic to cut in to stop Jyn? For the story? Or does Jyn want his kill?) [22:02] (It doesn't matter, he won't win ^_^) [22:02] (whichever way you feel appropriate.)

He must remain as he is until he has been stydied closer." [22:11] "My master already knows?" [22:11] * Jynaru interrupts that with a shout and a dive for the chakram!

Sliding across the floor, wrestling for the chakram she whispers between her growls. "Good, make it convincing. Even if I have to stay here alone." [22:16] * L_Jynaru (Fiat@dialup-209.246.186.53.Dial1.Atlanta1.Level3.net) has joined #pvpexaltedrp2 [22:17] against cicada, yes.

[22:31] (tower shield) [22:32] ouches... [22:32] 5DF? [22:32] soak first down to one, next down to one, next down to one, last down to.... [22:33] Argh. I can buy 40 soak. [22:33] Put it that way. [22:33] he does... 24 non-soaked damaged, then 7 soak. or whatever. [22:34] ok.. you have a what bashing soak? [22:34] 7. [22:34] then.. [22:34] yay, 17 bashing dice. [22:35] 7,1,6,6,5.... [22:35] you can buy 20 bashing soak. [22:35] 5B will remain. [22:36] alrightly. I'll do that. [22:36] (spend 11 motes and GH will only roll 5 dice of damage) [22:36] !exm 5 [22:36] * *Storyteller (5)* 8, 7, 4, 8, 4, Successes : 3 [22:36] ouch. bruises. [22:37] * Jynaru hardly seems to notice, favoring snarling out at cicada "You promised she wouldn't be hurt!" [22:37] "And she is not!" [22:37] "Me smiles wickedly. "yet..." [22:38] Kylara and Sanyet are being pushed out of the door by Green Snow Blossom. [22:38] * Cicada smiles wickedly. "yet..." [22:38] init? [22:39] You can hear footsteps approaching rapidly, and looking down the corridor see Rapunzel running towards you, a magnificent oriaclucm powerbow already drawn in her hands. Some of Blooms' beastwomen lunge at the end of their chains, but most of them are amazed and content to watch the fight... [22:39] Bloom turns and closes the door to his study, then turns to deal with the both of you. [22:39] Init!

[22:40] zooomaru [22:40] (faster than a speeding bullet!) [22:41] * Jynaru hoists Cicada up on a shoulder, spinning precariously as he srpings forth at bloom, trails of spiky essence leading behind him as he shoots out into the air, impacting bloom and driving him through the door with the 70 MPH tackle of doom! [22:41] however that is most likely to work. [22:41] grab cicada, tackle bloom with the cicada shoulder. [22:44] hmm, using Cicada as an improvised weapon? [22:44] It's more doing the stacking thing. [22:44] So that she's going through the door as well. [22:45] (out of the line of fire? Thank you, such a thoughtful young man :) [22:45] Cicada can make a contested Dex + MA roll to get free [22:46] !ex 9 [22:46] * *Cicada (9)* 8, 1, 4, 5, 4, 4, 4, 7, 8, Successes : 3 [22:46] (not a parry, I suppose) [22:47] could be.

[22:47] no need to be better. [22:49] * Cicada is too heavy and too pregnant to be used as a ram. [22:49] (and yes, try telling her that. I dare you) [22:50] Sigh. Taaackllleeee! [22:50] Stunt bonus? [22:52] +1 [22:53] !ex 11 [22:53] * *Jynaru (11)* 3, 5, 3, 3, 5, 3, 2, 5, 9, 7, 7, Successes : 3 [22:53] * Cicada rolls with Jynaru as he grabs her spinning her body on its axis, twisting her arms in his, and leaving him standing with her jacket in his hands instead of her. [22:53] hurray! [22:54] you may still make an attack on Bloom, if you insist. [22:54] that is the attack. [22:54] 3 dice? [22:54] er [22:54] weren't you hitting Bloom with CicadA? [22:55] !ex 10 [22:55] * *Storyteller (10)* 9, 5, 5, 1, 8, 5, 4, 8, 8, 1, Successes : 4 [22:55] he knocks you out of the way easily enough. A flare of essence, and then a golden snake staff is in his hands. Slowly, he advances upon you. [22:55] The idea was to carry her with me when I tackled him. [22:56] That way, they'd both go through the door. [22:56] ah [22:56] ah well... [22:56] init times?

[22:59] Bloom again holds his action. He is right next to you, barring your way to the great doors. [23:01] Uh....Hold action. [23:01] I can't get past him, and to attack is to invite nasty combo. At least this way I can parry/dodge. [23:01] !me turns to Green Snow Blossom and Rapunzel. "Do not hurt the others, and leave Red Bloom his sport!" [23:04] Bloom attacks with the snake staff, each time a different part of it snaking around Jynaru's paries and hitting him in the back. A swift kick to the gut at the end of the attack is perfectly placed when Jynaru's back is to the stairs, but it does not truly seem to be intended to hurt. [23:04] no charm used. [23:05] 7 attacks with the snake staff; kick is not a real attack. [23:05] Gyah. [23:06] Full dodge, here I go.

[23:11] Yay. [23:11] * Jynaru glares at Cicada, trapped behind Bloom's flurry of offense. [23:13] Cicada going to do anything? [23:15] (already did, making sure Kylara and sanyet are not harmed and Jynaru not made into a pincushion. Though not making it look as if that is her motive) [23:16] ok, init [23:16] !roll 1d10+14 [23:16] !roll 1d10+16 [23:16] * *Storyteller* 1d10+14, 4 , Total: 18 [23:16] * *Jynaru* 1d10+16, 3 , Total: 19 [23:16] !roll 1d10+12 [23:16] * *Cicada* 1d10+12, 6 , Total: 18 [23:16] (just remembered that I have dex 6, not 5) [23:18] (^)_^) [23:18] jynaru goes first!

[23:21] He is looking at you rather sullenly, now. [23:21] <*Bloom*> "I think it's time to end this." [23:24] (Bah. I'm not busting out the bow for nothing. Just you wait, Bloom...) [23:25] (Next time Inspector Bloom. Next time...) [23:25] <*Bloom*> "Surrender now, and I can promise no further harm will come to you or Kylara." [23:25] * Jynaru shrunks back warily. [23:25] "What are you going to do?" [23:26] <*Bloom*> "I am going to make you forget this ever happened. And, I am going to free my wife." [23:26] * *Bloom* walks forwards, keeping the distance between you and him short. [23:28] <*Bloom*> "After that, there will be no quarrel. Now, the only thing you can hope for is that I will let you leave with some resemblence of your past sanity. If you do not accept my offer, I will take from you what I want... and let these creatures tear you limb from limb." [23:28] How deep in the place am I? [23:28] * *Bloom* smiles and waves slowly at the leashed women. [23:29] "Master, is that safe to do..? Extracting her? This suddenly?" [23:29] <*Bloom*> "Do not worry. I will take as long as I need to." [23:29] "I sort of consider sanity loss harm..." [23:29] * *Bloom* smiles at Jynaru deviously. [23:30] Pretty deep. But, you are high up, and there are large glass windows on both sides of the hallway leading to this room. so you can probably run across the roof a bit. [23:30] Just have to get to the hallways... hrm. [23:30] that's past GSB and Rapunzel. [23:31] Indeed. [23:31] * Jynaru sighs sadly, turning away from him "Fine. You win." [23:31] for the sake of your sanity, I will let you get past them if you don't get put in some kind of hold or clinch. [23:31] * *Bloom* relaxes a little bit. [23:32] <*Bloom*> "Good, I was hoping you would come to your senses." [23:32] *shrug* I don't have the essence or the dice to really evade a concerted attack to get to the hallway. [23:32] ah [23:32] * Jynaru tries to ignore him. [23:32] !ex 9 [23:32] * *Storyteller (9)* 8, 8, 2, 7, 9, 1, 9, 5, 3, Successes : 5 [23:32] (well, they have been told not to go all out on him) [23:33] * *Bloom* catches onto this wish and directs GSB and Rapunzel to escort you to the DUNGEON GUEST ROOM [23:33] * Jynaru spits at cicada on the way out. [23:33] * Cicada chuckles. [23:33] "Sorreeee." [23:34] (Ah, snapping. Such fun, even if it is controlled snapping.) [23:34] Dooomed! [23:34] now you are all doomed.... [23:35] do you try to escape on your way to the DUNGEON GUEST ROOM? [23:35] Probably not. No essence, two attacky Exalts. [23:36] !ex 7 [23:36] You also mentioned big nasty walls and such. [23:36] * *Storyteller (7)* 8, 3, 2, 6, 3, 5, 7, Successes : 2 [23:36] mmhmm... [23:36] you'd need to be uber-jumpy [23:36] * Jynaru is a broken shell of a dynast. [23:36] don't have essence for uber-jumpy. [23:36] Bloom is a bad, bad man. [23:37] He'd have been less bad if I'd fought to win. [23:37] * Storyteller nods. [23:37] Anyhow, you are brought to the DUNGEON GUEST ROOM. it is very pretty and sparkly, also there are no vents and the door is three inches of gold-plated iron. [23:37] You'd better know what you're doing, Cic. [23:38] And the wals? [23:38] several feet of stone. [23:38] after that, who knows. [23:39] [23:39] * *Bloom* turns to Cicada. [23:39] * Jynaru steps into the center of it, having not looked at either of them the whole time, and neither speaking nor looking at them waits for them to leave. [23:39] * Cicada kneels before Bloom in the rather messe audience room. "I apologize. But without goading him to strike first I knew that you could not have fought him. I am ready to accept any punishment my master might think appropriate." [23:39] !ex 9 [23:39] * *Storyteller (9)* 6, 6, 5, 3, 9, 8, 4, 5, 6, Successes : 2 [23:40] * *Bloom* kneels to Cicada. [23:40] <*Bloom*> "Cicada, there are a few rules you're going to have to learn if you're going to work for me." [23:40] "Yes. I hear and obey." [23:40] <*Bloom*> "The first you must know is that, even though everyone knows who I am, apparences count." [23:41] "Yes. I understand." [23:41] <*Bloom*> "It would not do for a guest to see the Regent's prize kneeling at a mortal's feet." [23:41] * Cicada blinks. [23:41] "Errr... I see..." [23:42] "Never even thought of that..." [23:42]
