1 ♐ Voice ♐ A brief check up

[Wow, Darkleer is actually communicating with the network on a whole for once instead of being a miserable hermit. Must be a special occasion. Does anyone know his wiggling day?]

Now then. Have we all cleansed ourselves of the mess and done whatever strange death rituals foreign species feel the need to do?

[Okay, maybe it is just Darkleer being a coldhearted dick. Eh.]

I believe we should focus on the more important matter here. I have seen discussions scattered throughout the network, but it would be best to have all our thoughts and speculations focused in one place on both the destruction of those so-called faeries and on the recent appearance of that Carol individual.

For those of you who are oblivious and prone to missing the obvious, things are changing in this place. It would be best to be prepared.

[Don't be fooled, he's not doing this to be nice. He's doing what any troll knows to do: looking out for himself and the few he cares about. If that means even faintly working with others, well, he'll learn to deal.]

[Also, that's all the network is getting from him. Click goes the camera!]


[Filtered to Summoner]

[Darkleer hesitates before sending this one out, although his voice is just as stoic and stern as ever.]

Since your children in particular seem to be taking this badly, perhaps it would benefit you to know that those things which followed us were nothing more than mere robots. The technology may have been organic in nature, but it was still nothing truly living. No pain, no loss of life.

That's all.

No one I'd care to drag into this in case it goes south.

[There is no way in hell he's going to involved Colette if there's even the slightest chance of retribution from their proverbial jailers. He rubs his face and lets out a frustrated whine, flopping his head back over the top of the couch.]

This is all such bullshit! We don't have enough information.

F-fuck fuck!

[He grabs onto the tree and looks down angrily, sneering, nose scrunched, eyebrows having a conference at the bridge of his nose. He really doesn't... want to some down. He looks fucking terrible. Bags under his eyes are worse then ever, his skin is starting to get a blue tint to it's grey. Hair isn't slicked back, it's clean, but it's sitting longer on his head, obviously not having been bothered with lately. Not only that, but his voice sounds worse in person. He just, all of that, everything, and the whole easy to set off issue he's having right now, it all doesn't really set him up for the best face to face interactions.]

No!

[The best he can even yell with how far up he is and how terrible his voice sounds.]

What is your reasoning for believing these things to be related?

Oh yeah? Anything you can tell us about investigations or weird goings on with the coral or locals or anything? We're trying to put together an accurate picture of what we're dealing with.

[Introduction? Sorry, he's too engrossed in all this.]
chosen_gigolo: (Bored)

[personal profile] chosen_gigolo 2012-01-20 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Any idea where Doctor Alpha vanished off to, then? Or this priestess Carol was talking about?
redcloakedthief: (It's hard work okay)

[personal profile] redcloakedthief 2012-01-20 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Alpha? Nope, not a clue.

It's a shame...I actually owe the guy one. He wasn't that bad.

[A pause, and--]

Huh. You guys haven't even met Thalassino? ...I've been here too long.
chosen_gigolo: (huh?)

[personal profile] chosen_gigolo 2012-01-20 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I've only been here a month. What can you tell us about her?
redcloakedthief: (There's something very wrong here)

[personal profile] redcloakedthief 2012-01-20 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
She welcomed us when we first got here. The first foreigners, I mean.

That was...ha, nearly two years ago now? She gave me a towel.

[He considers it.]

She's always been mysterious though. I know she didn't get along with Alpha. And she disappeared along with the church.
chosen_gigolo: (Thinking)

[personal profile] chosen_gigolo 2012-01-20 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
So she and Alpha weren't on the best of terms... Maybe they didn't vanish because of the same thing, then.

So the whole church just vanished too? I haven't been able to do much exploring yet.
redcloakedthief: (It was an accident I swear)

[personal profile] redcloakedthief 2012-01-20 06:53 pm (UTC)(link)
It got eaten.

By a shadow.

I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.

FINE! DO IT!

[Scowls, hopping up and down a bit on the branch he's on, that barely shaking the tree as much as Darkleer did when he hit it. Summoner's pretty light after all, except those fucking head ornaments.]

[personal profile] chosen_gigolo 2012-01-20 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Eaten by a shadow... right.

Although that could be some kind of weapon effect from this war the documents you recovered were talking about. That was you that retrieved those, right?
redcloakedthief: (Maybe I /do/ know)

[personal profile] redcloakedthief 2012-01-20 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yeah, that was me. Way back when we first got taken here. I've still got them all, but it seems like they got circulated around just fine.

I couldn't say. This place changes month by month. But Thalassino's got answers, if anyone could find her.

And what kind of preparations would you recommend?
chosen_gigolo: (Thinking)

[personal profile] chosen_gigolo 2012-01-20 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Any idea at all where she might be hiding out? Or you think she's out of the bubble entirely?

[Fuck, what is even happening and how does he even have enough time to mentally note that the ponytail looks all right? Also SHIT SHIT, scrambling back quickly, falling off the branch, hissing when he hits a different one, and opening his wings to quickly catch him mid air.]

[Summoner puts a hand to his chest, flipping his head to get hair out of his face before glaring at Darkleer and pointing.]


The hell!?

I didn't think you, you, y...

Damnit, I didn't know the offered be taken up!

[Glares through bright strands of red hair, slowly backing up in the air more and more, a hand nervously clenching and digging claws into the side of his wrist.]

Just go back down. Y-y-y. Damn it all.

The point is made.
