*Remus snores outside the room happily*

*Leo frowns and walks into her bedroom to check on Blue*

*Smiles at the sleeping floof*

Taldeer! Just the person I wanted to see.
...There was an incident. Some Corsairs stole the item I was recovering, intercepted my teleport, and dumped me in a swimming pool full of chocolate mousse. Lovely experience, but a bit... messy.

[Sam smiles] No plans, just fact. If I catch you cutting him, I'm going to see what happens when you freeze the blood inside someone's brain.

*I frown and shift on my feet*
What item were you looking for and why did the Corsairs want it?

A warp portal stabilization device, disguised as a gemstone in some hive lord's vault. I... don't know why the Corsairs wanted it. They left me a note.
*Holds up the note, which has several runes and a heart at the bottom*

*I pick up the note and begin reading it*
*after finishing reading the note I spit a curious curse in the Eldar tongue questioning the Corsairs hygiene and ancestry*
......Why the feth would you want a warp portal stabilization device?

A man named Ikyas Temafyin asked me for research on dimensional portals. He wants to find a way to mass-transit objects to other universes. My guess is, he wants to move the population of the Federation to a universe without Chaos, or a safe universe.
*Calmly looks at Taldeer*

*I sigh*
Well this letter is from the Prince leading these Corsairs asking you to parlay if you wish to get your device. Fething Corsairs love those dramatic touches like demanding parlay so they can attempt to humiliate their opponents.
*I utter another furious curse*
They're even worse than the Dark Kin

...Of course it is. Any advice in what kit to bring to stand a chance? I'd prefer to not die. Not dying is nice. And where did they want me to parlay?

*Scatty watches Leo walk away then goes back into the kitchen*
*She gets hugged by Dria then washes up her dishes and goes back to sit on the sofa*

*Leo walks back out into the main room and looks around*

Leo: (Wings really do a number one your shoulders...)

*Leo rolls her shoulders*

*I smile grimly*
I'm going with you. The invitation was sent because first off you're human, so he believe he's better than you and wants to use this chance to see a human grovel. Also, he believes you to be without allies. Bringing me with you will show him that the might of the Craftworlds is at your side, and he will be forced to take you more seriously. As to what to bring.... Come ready for a fight, he may not press the issue but you should be prepared, and the parlay is at his flotilla in a nearby sector

Nearby sector... shouldn't take that long to arrive. If we leave now, we would arrive tomorrow morning... I'll extend you an invitation to my vessel.
*Smiles*
Oh, he'll find that I'm very much to be taken seriously. I'll pack my full covert ops loadout. Should be fun... hope there isn't a fight, though.

The Corsairs have a flair for the dramatic and some are prone to.bouts of almost violent emotion depending on if they are closer to the Commorite or Craftworld form of society. Do not let yourself be drawn into any petty debates or arguments or you'll be there until the birth of Ynnead. Get in, get the artifact, get out. If Isha is on our side there will not be a fight, but we must be prepared.
*arcane energy crackles around my hands*
I will not lose you after I lost my cousin.

...Ooh, they like talking until infinity loops over as well? Maybe I'll find a friend. And I'll keep you from dying, don't worry. I have plenty of tech for this.
*Giggles*
Shall we go? Oh, and if you'd like some meaningless recreational coupling, I will of course provide.

*I sigh heavily*
I'm going to have to drag you out by your ear aren't I?
*ignores Verdai's last statemenr*

*Ciri nods to Gort, and pats his shoulder.*
Ciri: Good! If you need more come get me okay?
*She smiles.*

---

*Roland bows slightly to Santiago.*
Roland:It is good to be back.
*Looks over at his arm, and sighs.*
Roland: Lost it in a encounter with some strange robots.. managed to slice my arm off.
*He shrugs.*
Roland: I will be fine.

...Don't worry, I'm just making light of the situation. This is a mission. I will do what I must, complete the objectives, probably blow something up, and get out.
*Has no adverse response to the rejection, taking it perfectly gracefully*

*Dria looks at Roland*
Dria: Uncle Horus could make you a bionic, or my dad could grow you a new organic if you like Mr. Deschain

*I give Verdai a cheeky grin*
I really need to teach you the proper way to proposition an Eldar lady don't I? Your form is awful

My form's never been the greatest, I mostly get by with natural attractiveness and raw audacity.
*Chuckles*
Teach me, if you think you can.

*Slowly exits Leo's room with a blanket being dragged by tail*
*Looks for Leo*

*Maiev continues drinking with Kara probs, idk*

*Joal is staring up at the ceiling, and trying to not cry*
*Does her best to move, but doesn't get anywhere, and only starts to sweat from overexertion*

~

*Izy lies beside Rita, and Lyr lies on Izy's other side, quite happy to have gotten some tail again*
*Low-key plays with Izy while she sleeps*

*Denny is sleep cuddling Jake, and stays smiling*

There are many things I could teach you Verdai, that is merely one thing among many

Oh? Do tell? I love learning new things.
*Smiles*

*I lean in close to Verdai*
*I whisper some VERY naughty things in Verdai's ear*
How's that?

*Gort nods*
Gort witcherses find.

*Santiago nods*
S: My bet is that the robots payed for that.

*Kara is thoroughly drunk and is leaning against Maiev*
K: I luvv youuu.
*giggles*

...Stand by for a teleport?
*Blushing slightly*

*I grin widely*
Aw you're blushing! That's adorable!

*Mai3v giggles, and hugs Kara*
M: Drunky! Drinky morey!
*More drinks*

*Leo sees Blue and calls out to her*

Leo: Hey Blue!

*She waves over to Blue*
