The Interdimensional Campaign of The Third Snowdon Fusiliers
Posted: Mon May 06, 2013 9:35 pm
(21:01:56) arcanus: Synopsis: Having collected Annette and Sam from the Reynolds Epping Forest estates, the Witch begins its ascent towards space. Due to the size of the vessel and the thinness of the Ether, the ascent is difficult, however much to the relief of the crew and passengers, the ship finally makes its way into Etheric space.
(21:02:44) Raz: Excellent, and remind me, we are heading for Mars?
(21:03:59) arcanus: Raz has both Nirie and Annette with him, yes your heading for Mars
(21:05:01) Raz: How long has it been in game since the farmhouse incident?
(21:05:54) arcanus: Annette seems particularly put out about Nirie's appearance, its one night on from the farmhouse and the wyvern
(21:06:46) Raz: Well maybe Annette will try a bit harder now there's another pretty young thing around
(21:07:32) Raz: How has the learning of Nirie's language been going over the course of that day, any improvement?
(21:08:04) arcanus: Not significantly, still a bit of an elven babble and giving you strange looks
(21:08:32) Raz: strange looks I can cope with
(21:08:50) Raz: How about Annette's cacohpony every time she speaks?
(21:09:08) arcanus: The Chorus sounds like a mixture of waves lapping at an indefinite shoreline and the ticking of a clock, she's still as loud as ever
(21:11:06) Raz: Does Nirie seem to notice anything about Annette? She was a little tuned in wasn't she? Slightly magical?
(21:12:34) arcanus: Otto seems to lapse in and out of a dreamlike state, no Nirie seems unaware of Annette's volume, her magical song also sounds different to that of Annette's or your own
(21:21:22) arcanus: From the portholes you see an ornate drum like station adorned with a Union flag in the distance and the moon loom closer
(21:22:48) Raz: "Control, Annette, control. You must work on your control! Without control you are a power untapped, a raging waterfall of sound..."
(21:24:15) arcanus: From the civility of her quarters, paneled in fine mahogany she purses her lips, arches her eyebrows, scowls and turns her head away dramatically
(21:25:01) arcanus: "I'll give you control" she whispers, although a thunderous whisper which literally bowls you over
(21:25:57) arcanus: Upon the bridge Lord Reynolds notices that the crew have grown decidedly less agitated
(21:26:46) Raz: Raz whinces and brushes himself off, remembering how his uncle explained to him. "Annette, dearest, you have to understand.. you are an orchestra. You are the intricacies of the violin, the depth of the double bass, and the power of the cannon. All in one. But you've got to listen to the conductor!"
(21:29:47) (Reynolds): Reynolds relaxes as he senses the tension ebb away. He forces himself to stay composed as he peers into the black void. Inside all he wants to do is scream with excitement.
(21:30:06) arcanus: Another pointed look and with that she stomps off, notepaper in hand
(21:31:14) Raz: Raz takes his leave and heads up to the bridge, finding Reynolds
(21:31:40) Raz: "Y'know, in space no-one can hear you scream" he mutters to the Lord
(21:32:21) arcanus: Raz's arrival is just in time to see the Moon approach
(21:32:48) (Reynolds): Reynolds raises an eyebrow at Raz.
(21:34:52) Raz: Raz looks serious. "...that's no moon!" he says dramatically! "oh wait, it is."
(21:35:35) (Reynolds): The brow dips and is joined by the other to form a confused 'V' on his forehead. "What are you talking about?" he asks the elf.
(21:35:36) Raz: "So remind me Reynolds, why are we off to Mars?"
(21:36:26) arcanus: Sam steps onto the bridge, nods respectfully to Captain Holt "Ah yes sir, our plan of action upon arrival?"
(21:37:12) (Reynolds): Remind me Max - why were we off to Mars?
(21:41:21) arcanus: Largely it was to get Nirie away from her kidnappers on Earth, however if you recall Reynold's had never visited his estate in Labyrinth Noctis
(21:41:31) Raz: Are Elves known in this timeline?
(21:41:53) (Reynolds): Reynolds turns to Captain Holt and says, "Captain, If you could carry on with your normal routine, I do not want people to know that I am travelling to Mars."
(21:42:28) arcanus: You've seen no sign of them being native, everybody appears human, although Reynold's might be a better reference
(21:44:12) Raz: "Pssst, Reynolds. Remind me, are my kind oft found in this timeline?" Raz whispers when no-one else is in earshot.
(21:44:18) arcanus: Holt looks puzzled and steps closer to the pair, she quietly asks "Our original destination was Venus, which is the other direction, do you want us to maintain that course?"
(21:48:37) (Reynolds): Reynolds turns quickly to Raz, "No, not that I am aware." Then he turns to Paige. "Hmm... that will be somewhat inconvenient. No proceed to Mars but keep my presence quiet please."
(21:49:58) arcanus: She nods and returns to her position overlooking the brass consoles of the bridge, leaning over and talking quietly to Lily
(21:50:22) Raz: "Perhaps we should retire so as not to arouse the crew?" suggest Raz, "I noticed a rather nice vintage bottle of something in my quarters..."
(21:50:59) arcanus: Sam nods appreciatively "She's grown up well, that one" he says almost fatherly
(21:53:09) (Reynolds): Reynolds nods to both Sam and Raz. "The executive lounge, gentlemen." He waves his arm indicating the door. As they leave, he glances back towards the young captain and smiles.
(21:53:41) Raz: Raz also glances back to the young female captain and smiles, not to be outdone by Reynolds.... Again!
(21:54:15) arcanus: As the three of you depart the bridge, the starboard portholes grants you a view of the moon, absolutely enormous, Raz is emersed in a great pulsing beat, one that suggests chaos and lunacy
(21:55:41) Raz: "Reynolds... can we stop there on the way back? It sounds..... awesome!"
(21:56:27) arcanus: The executive lounge sits upon the dorsal of the ship, view ports granting a view of space on all sides
(21:56:47) arcanus: Pheeel can you describe the lounge
(21:57:14) (Reynolds): "I'm sorry Raz? What sounds awesome?"
(21:58:33) Raz: "The moon, man... the moon. It sounds...intense. We should stop there. We should. Can we? Can we stop? PLLLLLllllleeeeease?"
(21:59:21) (Reynolds): The lounge resembles something that would look fitting in the First Class section of the Titanic. Plush carpets, dark wooden panelling and furniture, lots of brass fittings etc etc.
(22:02:58) Raz: I guess we'll kick back, open up the liquer cabinet and while away the hours
(22:04:43) (Reynolds): Reynolds looks out at the large orb of Luna. "Where's Anette?"
(22:04:53) arcanus: Reynold's watches as Raz begins to case the liquer cabinet
(22:06:48) Raz: "She was in her cabin last I saw, getting all tetchy about Nimrie and not listening to what I'm trying to teach her. Scotch? It's so frustrating. She's got so much potential but won't pay attention! How will she ever learn if you don't listen Raz!?"
(22:07:05) Raz: "I mean, Annette"
(22:08:31) (Reynolds): Reynolds grins at the Freudian slip. "Nimrie? Why is she stressing about her?"
(22:08:39) arcanus: Raz can hear her carcophany below decks
(22:10:00) arcanus: If you recall you also have one Lieutenant Xavier Tiley aboard as well
(22:10:42) Raz: "Why do you think? Another fit female on the team, and this one has more mysteries than Scooby-Doo's friends. Probably A's time o' the month, if you know what I mean..."
(22:11:22) arcanus: Reynolds make a current affairs roll?
(22:11:39) (Reynolds): Reynolds nods at Raz's offer of a Scotch. "Actually Raz, I can hear you speaking English words, but i have no idea what you are saying!"
(22:13:01) (Reynolds): current affairs - which aspect?
(22:13:16) Raz: "Hey Tilly! You must-a heard of Scooby Doo and his mystery crew?", all the filtered oxygen helps delivery the alcohol, as Raz is none to aware
(22:15:14) arcanus: Popular Culture
(22:15:30) ChatBot: (Reynolds) rolls 3d6 and gets 5,1,4.
(22:15:38) (Reynolds): 11 out of 13
(22:18:22) arcanus: Tiley closes his mouth, it appears not so much at the marvel of space, but the technological marvel of the ship
(22:19:02) arcanus: Reynolds has absolutely no idea what Scooby-Doo is
(22:19:52) arcanus: He turns looking at Raz with a look of utter confusion, it is a look that Raz is often greeted with
(22:20:39) Raz: "I'll take that as a No, the other world Tilly probably wouldn't know either. Chin-chin!"
(22:20:58) Raz: Sit back and relax, taking in the trip, and the free booze!
(22:21:23) (Reynolds): Reynolds takes a seat as he swirls the amber liquid in his glass. "Raz, do you have any idea who was responsible for abducting the young lady?"
(22:23:06) arcanus: Tiley shakes his head, gratefully accepting his glass of scotch before sitting, muttering "The other Tiley, what's he talking about!"
(22:23:52) Raz: "wish one, annette or t'other one? *hic*. I fink it was a nasty man, who wanted some rumpy-pumpy!"
(22:25:20) arcanus: Sam looks at his watch and then at Raz "A little swifter than normal"
(22:26:40) (Reynolds): Reynolds shakes his head. "Raz has probably had a dream with you in it, Mr Tiley. One where you obviously knew this Scooby-Doo fellow is."
(22:28:11) Raz: "Wha- i can't 'member is why that pritty little half elf was wiv that other man... that one... y'know. The german man.man."
(22:29:11) arcanus: "I belief he refers to Herr Medtz" adds Sam
(21:02:44) Raz: Excellent, and remind me, we are heading for Mars?
(21:03:59) arcanus: Raz has both Nirie and Annette with him, yes your heading for Mars
(21:05:01) Raz: How long has it been in game since the farmhouse incident?
