Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board SHAKES 4 - Now Open

Cobie, didn't you understand what she was telling you? They're engaged. They're just waiting for Hrun to return to make the announcement.

[picks Brit up while Ranger is talking. She snuggles to his chest with a contented sigh.]

Aren't you going to congratulate us Cobalt?

< a wicked grin forms on Cobalt's face >

Not married yet. Lot can happen between now and the wedding.

Be seein' ya Ranger.

< exits and flies off >

That is one strange man.

{Carries Brit out to his vehicle & leaves}

Emily was a bit confused at the turn of events. From what Brit told her, she was descended from nobility. Emily's family liked to play at being noble and have extensive family trees; sort of a longt-term scientific breeding plan for intelligence (or money which is result of a different kind of intelligence than in science).

She asked Space Ranger, "So, your family does not arrange marriages?"

Never a dull night on Legion World, I see.

I'd be careful for what you ask for, Ms. Sivana. It seems to me that once the rest of Legion World takes an interest in your love life, it's rather difficult to get them to lose said interest.

Then again...these things do tend to result in mass crisis...

"It is too complicated as it is," Emily admitted. It would be rather nice if the issues simply resolved themselves with everyone ending up with the ideal partner, like in a romance novel.

"As for crisis, there better not be one," Emily said. She was too busy to deal with a crisis.

Oh I thought this was the post while drunk thread.


shhh Nam'Lor stop ... I'm not going to do that!

I still want to know what that stuff Nam-Lor is drinking actually is. It smells like swamp water mixed with horseradish and Bantha Dung.

I wonder how it tastes (or if Nam-Lor can actually taste anything).

Can I have a sangria?

This evening is a little too quiet.

I'm having a mudshake myself. And I don't care if it's supposed to be a lady's drink...

All this talk about marriage has got me thinking. Maybe it's time...

*looks at something in his pocket*

Man, I'm hella nervous. And excited at the same time.

*sips mudshake* Looks like we have the same taste in drinks, honey. And it's a good taste.

Mind if I sit down?

You look like you have a lot on your mind. I'm told I'm a very good listener...

Oh, hey Zoe... Where's Angdar?

Well, I have this really big decision to make. I'm not sure if it's the right time, but I know I'll ask eventually. I just want to make it as perfect as I can.

<Sits down next to Ibby>

Why the anxious face, Sentient? It's your birthday, you should be partying.

Babbette, bring the kid six of whatever he's drinking, and bring me a JWB with a Michelob chaser.

< moving down closer to Invisible Brainiac and Space Ranger >

I know I'm relatively new here, IB, but considering our past adventure, I don't feel too bad offering unsolicited advice. Which quite simply is this: you know it's time, when it's time.

< to Ranger>

Greetings Space Ranger. We've not met before, thankfully--I would have been none too happy to see you coming in my..."prior occupation"...

< extends hand >

The name is is Renly Fox. I've recently come to Legion World to expand my shipping business.

Hey Zoe, Ranger, Renly... Thanks for the company. It's awesome being able to talk to you friends.

It's a bit complicated. There are... a lot of factors to consider.

One of them being how badly I want to go back to Earth. If I go through with this.... *looks at the box in his pocket again*...

I might not be able to ever go back.

Angdar's off being Angdar. But let's talk about you...

*caresses IB's arm gently*

Why would this decision prevent you from ever going back to Earth? Are you going somewhere?

I... well... let's just say I left some people behind on Earth who wouldn't be happy with where I am now in my life.

*sigh*

I think I'm gonna need something stronger.

Anyone want an AMF?

<It is the lunch hour rush at SHAKES bar. A crowd of people is at the bar, as the harried bartender is both serving drinks and moving back and forth to the kitchen window to pick up food orders for the lunch crowd.>

<In the midst of this mayhem, the bar phone rings>


Bartender: SHAKES Bar and Grill... pick up or delivery?

Exnihilo on the phone: "Ah... yes... do you serve 'Prince Evillo' in cans?"

Silent voice of the black diamond: [i]"NO, YOU FOOL... IT'S DO YOU 'HAVE' PRINCE EVILLO IN A CAN!!!"[/i]

Bartender: Huh? Do we serve grilled what?

Exnihilo on the phone: "Prince Evillo' in cans?"

Silent voice of the black diamond: "NOT CANS... A CAN!!!"

Bartender: You want what, now? You've gotta speak up, buddy.

Exnihilo on the phone: "In a can."

Bartender: A pan? You want a pizza? What size?

Exnihilo on the phone: "You better let him out... he's getting angry."

Bartender: Do what now?

Exnihilo on the phone: "Angry! Very similar to the emotion you will feel when you realize this is merely a prank phone call and that I've wasted your valuable time. Mwah-ha-ha! EEEEEVIL!"

Silent voice of the black diamond: "YOU DON'T TELL HIM THAT!!!"

Bartender: Hold on one second, buddy... <setting the phone down and scrambling around the bar> order in... here's your salad... your plate will be right up... you need another round there, bud?

Exnihilo on the phone... still talking: "Mwah-ha-ha! Yes! Give in to your anger! With each passing moment you make yourself more my servant. EEEEEVIL!"

Silent voice of the black diamond: "JUST HANG UP THE PHONE!!!"


<Exnihilo hangs up, as the bartender pick his end back up>


Bartender: Sorry about that, buddy... now what can I get y...? <hears the dial tone, shrugs and hangs up the phone - turning back to the bar> You need a refill?

*nurses mudshake*

Well, IB has done what he was thinking of, and gone off with Blaze. And Angdar's busy with training... he really likes swinging that big mace of his around

What's a girl to do for fun around here?

I don't know why, but I'm feeling a bit... frustrated... right now.

<walks into Shakes>

Silverale please.

<checks watch>

<looks over>

Waiting for someone, or expecting something to happen?

Chill, Rond. SHAKES isn't the sort of place where you should be keeping a schedule.

I have had a long day (internship interview and homework). I think I would like a mudslide. I need to take a day for myself tomorrow.

I had a long long week ...

I might take it easy this week at the time institute ... At least harmonia is at the titanese office!

Hello, Rond Vidar. I think I remember you from a science convention I attended with my cousins. I am Emily Sivana. Have you ever heard of my family?
