  1. Attayl gently pressed Nerin's hands when the woman didn't reply and looked towards the window. "Come one Nerin. Let's head outside, only for an hour or two. Brillin is drunk and fast asleep and the others are fine as well." She smiled at her and nodded towards the window. "A change in the scenery will help. And I can show you a place, where you never were before." The words left her mouth and she almost wished she could take them back. Was she really ready to share it, and share it with someone she barely knew? But that glance in Nerin's eyes, or rather the glance that wasn't there. She knew that one well. Too well. Once you dropped into that hole, only few climbed out again. "It's beautiful, you'll see." @ZincAboutIt
  2. Shana shook her head when James mentioned a piano. She wanted to sing along, but probably without a guitar that always ended up in wrong tunes and everybody off beat. Then Ashlyn spoke up and Shana turned to her, grinned widely. "An acoustic guitar is what I'm looking for." Shana jumped to her feet and raced inside. Somewhere Tylor's old guitar - there it was. Happily she took it our of the corner and roughly wiped some dust off, before returning. "Here you are. It's old, but if you tune it, it should work just fine." @Blessing of Potency
  3. "Anything that we can sing to." Shana shrugged. "A violin can work as well I suppose."
  4. Mike grabbed a cookie and nodded at Wes. The storm was nearing, they had to find a solution quickly. “What if we find something that uses Investiture as well? That sucks it up or that is able to block it somehow? Another metalmind, or maybe a motivator.” He asked and fearfully glanced at the sky, when the girl proposed to contact the DA for help. “Do you really want to call the DA?” He was unable to hide the fear crawling into his voice his hands shaking slightly. “I don’t think that’s a good idea.” @I think I am here. @Silva @Ark's Boyfriend =================================== Zokora took her folder from the Underling and leafed through the pages. It helped, as usual it was an anchor to push back the hallucinations, made them unreal. It had been Althea’s idea, Zokora wasn’t one for lists and structure, but surprisingly it helped. Because she knew that it was real, because she knew she wouldn’t mess up things, if she followed it. Usually she just had it with her, but when things got back, then she would look through it, read the familiar words again and again, until things calmed down. She took another breath and then grabbed a micro, reached out for one of her troops. The man had her repeat her order several times and then finally agreed. He put his weapon aside and lifted his hands, walked towards some TUBA troops. “I’m to ask who is your commanding officer. My commanding officer would like to discuss a way to combine our efforts in order to make the evacuation more effective.” He loudly called out to them. @AonEne
  5. Well you already know about Althea, so just let me know once you thought of something. Personally I feel like the current power level is good, if we find a way for characters to advance, to not only developp, but also to learn new skills based on their experiences. I can understand that some would like to have a stronger character with more types of investiture. So mayb ef we can do something like unlocking additional points after every era. Or we give it another try to go without a point system altogether. Something completely different: I'd like to edit bith the OP of the GB thread and or Oasis. As Meeker is inactive, and according to our chats won't be back anytime soon, is it better to create two new threads I can control, or could you maybe edit the OPs for me? I would write everything of course. I doubt Meeker would mind, as he gave me an all clear to do with the guild as it pleases me, as he isn't planing to come back atm. @Voidus @MacThorstenson
  6. "Gladly." Shana smiled at him gratefully. She handed Ben his hot dog and then looked into the flames again. Once Rob was back they could make the dough and then start roating the bread as well. All around her people were talking, laughing, playing. It was so different from the night before, from yesterday. She had seen how Rob had moved away from the and it was her fault, she had caused this fear, these memories. They were endlessly fighting, but here and now - "Anybody knows how to play a guitar?"
  7. Shana squeezed his hand and then leaned slightly against him. She made sure to support her body weight herself, her was tired enough, but she enjoyed to be close to him. "What do you want on your hot dog?" She asked and reached out for a second stick to roast dinner for Ben. Mahad settled on her shoulder, invisible again. "I don't have cards. But there should be some in the living room." She replied to Flid and smiled at him. It was great to sit outside, with all of them around. Her family. @Emperor Stick
  8. "Can we maybe talk about some things? Later or whenever you have the time?" She asked quietly, quickly looking over to Ashlyn. She didn't want to exclude her, but she needed to talk to someone, and Doc was busy. James was another bondsmith, maybe he could help as well. Mahad flew a happy circle, headed towards the door and then back to Ben, before repeating the guesture a second time.
  9. "It is." Shana mirrored James movement and started to roast a hot dog over the fire. "I like fire." She said quietly and looked into the flames. Guilt surged when she thought of Rob, how she had burned him, but still. She liked fire. It was hers, it was life. "Will you stay here James? Move in with us? I'm sorry, I missed a lot, because of -" She paused, remembered Ashlyn was here and finished. "Training." @Wyndlerunner ================== Mahad flew over to Ben and formed his body to a dragon again. He sat down on his shoulder and picked at Ben's ear. In the end wanted to ask if Ben was hungry, but he couldn't talk to him, and talking to Glint was too easy. So he playfully imitated picking at the ear a second time and then pointed his nose towards Ben's stomach. @Lunamor
  10. Mike noticed her glance and shrugged. "Don't ask me. I have no idea what to do with such a thing." He looked back at the scientist and then at the Vortex. "If it needs Investiture to sustain itself, maybe cutting it off will help, or it will explode in our faces. But as I have no idea how to do that, we can't try it out." Worried he sighed and rubbed his face. "And maybe trying things out blindly isn't the best course of action anyway. Maybe it's better to retreat to a room close by and lock the door, in case something else comes out of it. Or we throw something at it, see what happens. I don't know."
  11. Shana smiled at the fire. She liked fire. Fire was great. It was hers. She could have called it easily, ripped the wood apart, set it on fire, but not with Ashlyn around. "Go look for Ben? See if he's alright." She asked Mahad quietly. "Do we want to eat outside? Then we could fetch the plates and the groceries." ================== Mahad invisibly zipped away and started to search for Glint. @Lunamor
  12. Shana gestured towards the rooms. "Kitchen, Living room, that huge table over there we use for meals. Our individual rooms are upstairs." "That's Leona. She offered to help make the fire." She grabbed a lightner and held it up. "Leona, that's Ashlyn. She knows Rob from school." @BookishOcelot
  13. Shana opened the door and gestured for her to step inside. "Welcome." "We just decided to make a fire in the backyard and statt making dinner." She smiled at Ashlyn and then shouted into the house. "We have a guest everybody!" Hopefully they would behave and not use their surges openly.
  14. "We need a campfire for the bread anyway." Shana added. "I can get it started easily, we could use a large iron bowl and go to the backyard?"
  15. Mike listened to the scientist stumble over his own words and sighed. He'd like to let the man go, but for now he was everything they had. He stared at the Vortex and groped for something he could do. Investiture. So maybe cut it off? Somehow? With a sigh he texted Zokora again, who copied the information to Lusk. @I think I am here. Then he turned back to the Vortex again. Cut it off. How was he supposed to cut it off. Mike stared at the Vortex and slowly realized, that he had no way to do it himself. It was frustrating, and he wished he was stronger, better equiped to deal with something like that. But he wasn't. So he stood there, sighed, and hoped nothing would come of that thing soon.

    I love it! And I love Lita, she is great!
  17. Shana waved happily at James. "Paying sounds good. I invited Ashlyn to come over, so I think we can continue this conversation at home?" @Wyndlerunner @Emperor Stick @I think I am here. @Blessing of Potency @Eluvianii
  18. "Yes, he is asleep." Attayl replied softly and reched out for Nerin's hands. "No need to cook lunch right now. I can do that later." She gently pulled her away from the kitchen door. Nerin wasn't here. Attayl saw it in her eyes, in the way she moved and talked. She lied to herself, dressed the ugly truth in a beautiful dress and hoped it could change anything. But it wouldn't. "Nerin, look at me." She asked her and tried to look into her eyes. "You are not alone. We can do this together."
  19. "All of us yes. We live together with some others. We only need to wait for Flid and James, and then we'll come." She grinned "Unusual, but it's great. Just knock on the door and someone will open it."
  20. "Maybe one day someone will read your book to me." She replied still smiling, watched him curl up on the bed, hug his knees. Feeling sick probably. No real surprise given the amount he'd drunk. He was going to write about her. Mention her in his book, in his project. She watched his eyes drop and walked quietly over to the doord "Nerin is right. You're eyes are beautiful." She said more to herself than to him, looked him him again, and then left the room. Walking downstairs she brushed her hair out of her face, looked for Nerin. She was still here, alone in the room. She shouldn't be alone right now. Not after loosing Jeb, not after everything. "Is there anything I can do to help you?" @ZincAboutIt
  21. "Sure." Shana pulled out her phone and drew up her number and their address. "We live there. And my number, in case you can't find it."
  22. Shana saw Rob study the condiments he had fetched and smiled. Rob. Stone faced, soft hearted Rob. She wanted to hug him and tell him he could do it, because he was great, because he was her friend, the one she trusted as much as Doc or Ben. But not with Ashlyn standing here. "Why don't you come along?" She asked Ashlyn. "We have a huge table and there's always cake." Gesturing towards their groceries she added. "And we've got enough food for everybody. If you don't mind a house full of teenagers. It can be loud and crazy sometimes." @Blessing of Potency
