The Knights Awkward

[Clockwork he/him]

Chasmfiend walks up and hands Mistrunner a chasmfiend bookie. "This gives great strength. Eat, and have power once again. Well, maybe. They certainly worked for me."

[The Honor Spren she/her]

Maggie notices the member title above chasmfiend. She narrows her eyes. "Is that a challenge, Chasmfiend?"

[Sunbird she/her]

Sunbird, too, glances at Chasmfiend's member title. "Once I would have challenged your claim to that title, but these days I am forced to spend much of my time in other, more boring pursuits, such as world history," she says, sighing.

[Pikachu she/her]

 

Maggie rolls her eyes. "Oh, pshaw, Kynedath. It's fine. Not everyone understands how to roleplay yet. Besides, my own entry wasn't much better." Maggie digs through the Archives of Awkward and pulls out:

"See? Happens to everyone." Maggie leans forward and widely grins at the little Pikachu. "Nice to have you here." She then realizes that she might be too close. A distance of two about 2 centimeters between faces had made people uncomfortable, in the past.

 

Pikachu Grins sheepishly at The Honorspren. "Thank you Honorspren, I am glad to be here; Kynedath, Forgive My grammatical  error."

[Pikachu she/her]

Mistrunner runs into the hall, hair soaked, breathing heavily. "Family... meetups... can take a lot outta ya," she says before collapsing. She mumbles an acceptance to Pikachu, extending (flopping) a hand over.

Pikachu takes the extended had, And shakes it gently. "Thank you, Guild master,....Perhaps you should rest a bit?"

[Pikachu she/her]

there is a noun implied, it is just fine.

anyway... "Mistrunner! We have a new Awkward friend!"

Carola shoves a plate of bookies into Pikachu's hand- paws? and says "Eat these while you wait"

Pikachu Sniffs at the plate of bookies cautiously, then nibbles a little bit at one of them; Then quickly proceeds to eat the whole plateful. After finishing, Pikachu looks up, head tilting slightly to the side, "Do you have any more, Corola???"

[Clockwork he/him]

"Ahh... My title may be a challenge, but I read insanely fast. Somewhere around 6 pages a minute. I can read WoK in about 2 1/2 hours (that was my measuring point). If you can beat that, I will beat you again by speed reading."

[Nashan’Elin he/him]

--Well, here's my first real attempt at RP--

Nashan walks slowly into the room. Head down, an open book in each hand, he doesn't seem to notice anything of his surroundings. Abruptly, he trips, drops his books on his toes, and blinks, looking up with a suprised look on his face.

"Wha-what?" Realizing that he's in a room with a bunch of people, he looks even more suprised. "Ummm, hi? Is this the hall of the Knights Awkward? I got kind of lost while I was reading and walking. I do that sometimes."

[CarolaDavar she/her]

Pikachu Sniffs at the plate of bookies cautiously, then nibbles a little bit at one of them; Then quickly proceeds to eat the whole plateful. After finishing, Pikachu looks up, head tilting slightly to the side, "Do you have any more, Corola???"

I have some more, here, take them. And some Root beer too!!

[Mistrunner]

Mistrunner gathers her strength and sits up on a beanbag facing Nashan. "Yes, that's us. We're... this... you're in Keep Awkward. Are you looking to join?" She pushes her hair out of her face and eats a couple bookies for strength. She nearly spits out the last one. "What flavor is this? Chasmfiend?!" she splutters.

[Pikachu she/her]

I have some more, here, take them. And some Root beer too!!

Pikachu nods eagerly, and asks, "really? where?"

I then turn to Mistrunner, to say, He had you  eat CHASMFIEND flavored bookies? Bitter, but very effective

[Nashan’Elin he/him]

"Oh- oh yeah! Right! Sorry..." Nashan takes a deep breath. "Yes, I do want to join the Knights Awkward. Uh, Books before friends, 17th Shard before real world, Release dates before birthdays."

[Mistrunner]

"Oh- oh yeah! Right! Sorry..." Nashan takes a deep breath. "Yes, I do want to join the Knights Awkward. Uh, Books before friends, 17th Shard before real world, Release dates before birthdays."

"Well spoken. Welcome, Nashan, to the Elite Order of the Knights Awkward." Mistrunner waves a hand regally, then slowly realizes she's finally managed to do this unawkwardly. She grins a bit maniacally and bounces up and down on the bean bag like a six-year-old. "I did it! I did it!"

[Kynedath]

Kynedath has noticed the lack of awkwardness in their leader and the founder of the Knights awkward, and grows worried.

 

"Mistrunner, if you have successfully noticed your lack of awkwardness, then perhaps you are not fit to lead the order dedicated to being awkward. Then again, your celebration is awkward enough for me to dismiss this transgression. If ever you need to step down, then I volunteer my services as a stand-in authoritative figure in your stead. I sincerely do not wish for that to happen, as my skills are far from adequate, but when I look at the rest of this forum, I find myself comforted. Also, it would be terrible for you to have to step down. I would personally suggest a Dalinar Bookie at this point of time, as I think you might find your current situation similar to his during the first book. But I think that the moral of this story is that you have to be more awkward please."

 

Kynedath sits back down, shifting his consciousness to a different plane of existence.

[Sunbird she/her]

Sunbird listens to Kynedath's speech, a small smile on her face. "Oh, what an eloquent speech!" she exclaims. "Now who's lost the awkward touch?" Turning to Nashan, she grasps his hand and shakes it vigorously. "Welcome!" she says. "We're glad to have you!"

[Kynedath]

Kynedath pops back into reality with a tan and a Hawaiian shirt.

 

"I'll have you know, I speak extremely awkwardly for my time period. Who else do you know who actually says transgression nowadays?"

[Nashan’Elin he/him]

Nashan is watching everything with a confused look when suddenly someone starts vigorously shaking his hand. "Thanks!" He says to Sunbird, "it's... Interesting to be here."

[Clockwork he/him]

"Yes- Storming and infernally confusing. Or strange. Or weird. 'Interesting' is a bit on the light side of things to say, of all the words that describe this place..." Pondering, he sits in a chair and looks up. "Of all the adjectives, you chose 'interesting'? By Austre and the Lord Ruler, that's terrible. I don't care how I'm described as long as it's a good adjective." He shook his head and muttered, "Merciful Domi, I went on a tangent didn't I? Hmn." He swiftly snaps his fingers and disappears.

[Nashan’Elin he/him]

"Fine, Chasmfiend. You want to play synonyms?" Nashan takes a deep breath. "This place is enthralling, uncanny, riveting, peculiar, and storm it to Braize if I have the slightest idea what's going on half the time." He then abruptly realizes that Chasmfiend vanished. "Aaaand, I'm talking to a chair. Great." He sighs, and grabs a book and sits in a (different) chair.

[CarolaDavar she/her]

Carola smiles and waved, shoving a plate of bookies onto Nashan's lap.

She then sits and munches on a David Charleston bookies while re-reading Calamity

[Sunbird she/her]

Sunbird grins at Nashan's list of adjectives and applauds softly when he finishes. "Sounds you are like me--you like wordplay, am I right?" she asks. "I know some puns so awful they're good."

[The Honor Spren she/her]

Maggie grins too. "Puns? I know puns. But not chemistry jokes. I can't really tell you any, because all the good ones Argon."

[Kynedath]

Ooh! I love chemistry jokes!

 

 

What do you do with a dead chemist?

Well if you couldn't Curium, and you couldn't Helium, then I guess you have to Barium!

 

Don't trust Atoms, they make everything up!

 

Why do chemists hate nitrates?

Because day rates are cheaper!

 

 

I have so many more, but I don't want to take up the entire thread. Take it away, (I think that Carola would be the one who would most likely keep this going) Carola!

[CarolaDavar she/her]

Man, now I feel terrible for not knowing very many chemistry jokes.

Seriously, the only one I know is the one with h2o

[Mistrunner]

Mistrunner jumps into the jokes, yelling out "Why couldn't Beethoven find his music teacher? Because he was Haydn!" She glances around expectantly, grinning, then awkwardly retreats to a corner to gnaw on a Prof bookie with her copy of Calamity.
