Sunbringer he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 6 hours ago, Invocation said: "Oh, yay. That's going to be fun." Apparently it was too much to ask to just want to be able to run your own tavern. "Well, guess I have to close until further notice. Can't have my customers getting hurt." Malu walks back into the tavern and delivers the news that the tavern is now closed for safety reasons until further notice. "Nah, you don't have to close! We'll be able to help if something happens!"
+Invocation Posted February 9, 2019 Author Posted February 9, 2019 Just now, Sunbringer said: "Nah, you don't have to close! We'll be able to help if something happens!" "Okay, yes, maybe, but I don't want you to have to do that! I didn't want anything like this to happen! I just wanted to give people food and drink! If you really want to stay, you have to sign that I am not responsible for anything that may or may not happen to you."
Karnatheon he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 (edited) "I suppose that's reasonable. I wouldn't expect you to be responsible for something like that, unless you were the one commiting the act of violence." Fae looked around. "Do you have a form for that? Or at least some paper to write on?" Edited February 9, 2019 by Karnatheon

"Anyone else looking to stay should sign on this sheet, too."

Kal was the one who enlisted me.” He leaned in closer, voice low. “You wouldn’t mind explaining what this place is, would you?” "an annoyance," She muttered signing the paper as it was passed around the room. "Who's Kal?"

+Invocation Posted February 9, 2019 Author Posted February 9, 2019 Quote Oh, that makes me feel better. I thought she was talking about the Tavern itself.
I think I am here. he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 The Haunt paused, then wavered. People were shrugging. Ignoring it. Like he wasn’t there. Like he didn’t exist. But, did he? He spent three hundred years in complete isolation, completely abandonment, and now, they were ignoring him. He brought his hands to his face and screwed it up, and yelled, though it came out as a barely audible whisper. The dust swirling from all around the bar coalesced in a shape of a human, in the shape of him. It was a detailed dust outline of his body, like a mist-spirit, and it was floating in the middle of the bar. Now they couldn’t not notice him. Could they. He extended his hands outwards, and the outline grew, till the head touched the ceiling. One thing about his type of spren was that he could change sizes, like an inkspren. Which meant the outline grew too. 1
+Invocation Posted February 9, 2019 Author Posted February 9, 2019 Malu takes a glance at what appears to be an ancient legend of Terris snowspirits manifesting in his tavern and shurgs again, pouring himself a glass of wine (tending bar is thirsty work!). After how Katki brought himself to Malu's attention, nothing else will ever phase him.
Karnatheon he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 Fae signed the paper, then glanced at the outline, attuning the Rhythm of Reprimand. "So there is a person there. You know, if you want attention you shouldn't go ruining people's day. Try being pleasant maybe?"
Sunbringer he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 Jacien signs, but he honestly couldn’t care less. Of course Malu wouldn’t be responsible. That was crazy talk.
I think I am here. he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 2 minutes ago, Karnatheon said: Fae signed the paper, then glanced at the outline, attuning the Rhythm of Reprimand. "So there is a person there. You know, if you want attention you shouldn't go ruining people's day. Try being pleasant maybe?" The outline turned, and moved closer to her. “I’ve tried being ‘pleasant’ for years,” it said in a quiet, but potent voice. “But they forget you, they go on and they forget you were there, and then, it’s like you nevertheless did anything to begin with. The only way to be memorable is to do something that will be remembered for centuries. And most of the things that are happen to go against the laws. Hence...” Windows from around began to crack. With how much he extended himself today, he couldn’t even shatter them, but he did crack each an every window, and if he focused, he cracked each window into a pattern, a set of words etched directly into the glass. THE HAUNT. “I must be remembered,” he said, voice slightly shaky. One person noticing him was good, it was a good thing to keep his sanity. But he needed more. More.
Karnatheon he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 "I'm sorry, but you are really starting to make this whole experience unpleasant. Now, you are destroying the property of the individual who owns this Tavern, so I would recommend leaving before someone does something about it." Fae says as she stands up, staring down the form in front of her. She wasn't sure if she could hurt a shadow, but she would try if needed.
+Invocation Posted February 9, 2019 Author Posted February 9, 2019 Quote @I think I am here. This is a large coincidence, but what The Haunt is doing is pretty much how Katki bugged Malu to bond him, and pretty much he's handling it the same way: pretending nothing is happening.
Jaywalk he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 55 minutes ago, Steel Inquisitive said: "an annoyance," She muttered signing the paper as it was passed around the room. "Who's Kal?" “He’s, uh, a kandra. Kind of weird having him around. He can change his gender, or even his species.”

If it was really a danger people would be more alarmed.
I think I am here. he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 Quote Ah, Malu’s reaction makes sense. The Haunt looked towards the person addressing him. “No one’s been able to harm me in centuries, girl. You could try, of course.” A fight. Would people pay attention then?

"I don't know who you're talking to, but trust me: nothing is there. Believe it. Live it. It makes everything better. Whatever you think you see, it probably isn't there." Quote It took Katki pushing him down a staircase to get him to pay attention fully.

There was some disturbance happening behind her, but she ignored it. If it was really a danger people would be more alarmed. “Yeah. He’s a mystery. Don’t know much about him.” He held out his hand to her. “I may not know where I am, or even what tomorrow will bring, but it’s good to meet you, Sam.”
xinoehp512 he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 Reylf took the paper and signed it. He wasn't about to leave now; things were just getting interesting. He flew up until he was at eye-level with the dust-man. Or, at least, what would be eye-level if the figure had eyes. "Are you okay? You seem a bit... upset."
Karnatheon he/him Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 Quote Who ya gonna call? "You say no has been able to harm you? Well it seem to me that the best way to do you harm would be to forget you, yes? As a Feruchemist I can store all my memories of you into a metalmind, and then destroy it to erase my memory of you entirely. I don't know why it is you want to be remembered so badly, but perhaps that would incline you to go ruin someone else's day." Fae looked at the outline again, "Or perhaps someone with a Shardblade could put a chink in your bravado. I'm really not sure." Quote Not Fae apparently.
+Invocation Posted February 9, 2019 Author Posted February 9, 2019 Quote Between the Haunt and Ark's Waiter, I don't think I'll have a tavern to manage soon.
