[17:34] Nekira Sudacne: Aliza would drop into Anna's dream pool that night...what's she dreaming of?
[17:35] Agilbxr: Jeff and her, sitting on a beach in Hawaii. Not even anything naughty.
[17:37] Nekira Sudacne: There's a nice pickup in the breeze as you see aliza slowly walking up the beach in the distance
[17:38] Agilbxr: *blinks, wondering what the heck Aliza is doing here*
[17:39] Nekira Sudacne: After a bit she gets closer, and she's wearing her birthday suit "Nice beach, isn't it nice to get away for a while?"
[18:07] Agilbxr: "um...Hi" *Anna and Jeff are both wearing regular bathing suits*
[18:08] Nekira Sudacne: "Unusual, your more taciturn in your dreams than in real life. Usually it's quite the opposite"
[18:09] Agilbxr: "I'm just not sure how you are here" *waves at the island, not really understanding she's only dreaming quite yet*
[18:09] Nekira Sudacne: "I'm psychic" she points out
[18:10] Agilbxr: "and that makes you able to come to Hawaii?"
[18:10] Nekira Sudacne: "Only in your dreams..."
[18:10] Agilbxr: "dream? "
[18:11] Nekira Sudacne: "Yes, a dream" *reaches behind her back to pull out an ice cream cone that's layered with about twice as much as could physically balance "Ice cream?"
[18:12] Agilbxr: *shakes her head* "so you're telling me I'm dreaming, and you just entered my dream?"
[18:12] Nekira Sudacne: "More or less" *licks the ice cream a bit before it seems to disappear" "Where's Hawaii?"
[18:14] Agilbxr: "In the pacific ocean" *still looks...baffled* "
[18:15] Nekira Sudacne: *chuckles and sits down and lets her get her bearings a bit*
[18:15] Agilbxr: "so, um...why are you here?"
[18:17] Nekira Sudacne: *laughs* "I suppose you wouldn't believe it was just a friendly visit, would you?" she grins with all the innocence of a Cheshire cat
[18:18] Agilbxr: "it seems like a lot of effort for a friendly visit"
[18:18] Nekira Sudacne: "I needed your help." she pauses "It's hard to pierce dimensions with this power. I want to talk to Jeff"
[18:19] Agilbxr: *looks at dream Jeff* "but if this is my dream, your not really talking to Jeff are you?"
[18:20] Nekira Sudacne: "Well, no, he's your dream persona of him. Hrm. Hard to explain. But no, what I need you to do, is let me merge with your mind like this, then concentrate on Jeff really hard. then we'll both be able to go to his dream"
[18:21] Agilbxr: "um...ok. Sure I guess. Can you do me a favor though? Next time, let me know this is going to happen before I go to sleep. I'm not sure I'm going to believe this is real when I wake up"
[18:24] Nekira Sudacne: "It's a dream, there's a chance you won't even remember it at all"
[18:25] Agilbxr: "oh. That's so odd"
[18:26] Agilbxr: "what do you need me to do?"
[18:29] Nekira Sudacne: "Just think on Jeff, think really hard, anything that reminds you of him"
[18:30] Agilbxr: *looks over at dream Jeff, and startles when she notices he's not there*
[18:30] Agilbxr: *blinks a couple of times, then works to concentrate hard on Jeff*
[18:36] dizzyintellect: Aliza, you have a harder time than usual reaching Jeff's dreampool because of the dimensional distance involved, but you do get there. You arrive at the burned out hust of a village with Jeff kneeling over several graves. He seems unaware of your arrival
[18:37] Nekira Sudacne: *Walks up with unusual quietness as she seems to be dressed in a white gown this time, although very flimsy* "Never forget, huh?" she says softly
[18:38] dizzyintellect: His head jerks up as he whips around, a sword appearing from nowhere. "Aliza? What are you doing here?"
[18:39] Agilbxr: sorry, missed the group invite coming up...
[18:39] Agilbxr: *looks quite sad about Jeff's dream*
[18:40] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles* "Well, I came with what _I_ thought would be good and bad news for you"
[18:40] dizzyintellect: He blinks "Anna?"
[18:41] dizzyintellect: Clearly confused
[18:41] Agilbxr: "yeah. I'm not quite sure how I'm here, but it has something to do with Aliza's psychic abilities. I'm kind of baffled myself"
[18:43] dizzyintellect: Jeff hugs Anna "Aguirre has found you then?"
[18:43] Nekira Sudacne: "Who's Aguirre?"
[18:44] Agilbxr: *nods* "he did. Along with an odd little group of people. I'm still not sure HOW he found me"
[18:44] Agilbxr: *looks at Aliza* "one of the guys that came to meet us today. He's my first mate from my pirate days"
[18:45] dizzyintellect: "He showed up in Juarez with a Crazy, a Techno-Wizard, and... goddess of some sort... at least her chi was similar to yours and Silvie's"
[18:45] Nekira Sudacne: "Ah, right, don't remember him so well" *grins* "You'll be glad to know I'm going clean"
[18:46] Agilbxr: "huh...I'll have to have a chat with her. I didn't really have time"
[18:46] dizzyintellect: Jeff tilts his head "You're going clean too?" Looking from Anna to Aliza
[18:47] Agilbxr: "I asked her too for this trip. She agreed with my reasoning"
[18:48] dizzyintellect: "Wait a minute... Just what's going on here?"
[18:49] Agilbxr: *looks to Aliza*
[18:49] Nekira Sudacne: "Your being ganged up on" *smiles* "That or we're just having fun. but it's true, I am going clean. Well mostly. I'll probablly have a drink here or there" *shrugs*
[18:49] dizzyintellect: "i see... Then this is about your.... Business proposal?"
[18:50] Agilbxr: *looks at Aliza* "you should probably go cold turkey, at least for now. It'll be easier that way"
[18:51] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles at Jeff* "Well, yes, it is" Then after she finishes she turns to answer Anna* "If I go cold turkey, I'll go into withdraw while surrounded by zombies, is that wise?"
[18:51] Agilbxr: "i can fix that, it's a simple spell "
[18:53] Nekira Sudacne: *blinks* "You can? Wow" *grins* "Sounds good to me"
[18:54] Agilbxr: "one of these days I'll have to show you exactly how much magic I'm capable of"
[18:54] dizzyintellect: "I might have to object to showing her all your magic"
[18:55] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "ok, I'll keep that kind between us"
[18:55] Nekira Sudacne: *grins at Jeff* "Oh don't go all jealous on me..."
[18:57] dizzyintellect: Jeff grins at Aliza
[18:57] Nekira Sudacne: *looks at Anna* "Don't you get jealous either now" *grins*
[18:58] dizzyintellect: "We aren't all as generous as you, Aliza"
[18:59] Agilbxr: "I'm not jealous. You try to seduce him again, I'll have to kill you. That's not jealousy, it's practicality" *grins*
[19:11] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles* "See, that's the problem. There's nothing WRONG with sharing"
[19:11] Agilbxr: "depends on what you are sharing"
[19:12] Nekira Sudacne: *shakes her head* "You'd think a pirate would be more understanding..."
[19:13] dizzyintellect: "Pirates are real stingy with their booty"
[19:13] Nekira Sudacne: *Laughs* "So that's what you are now?" she says to Jeff
[19:13] Agilbxr: "want to go raiding? Sure! I'm your woman. I'll go marauding with you, and even accompany you to Tortuga, but you can't have my man. Sorry" *doesn't sound the least bit sorry*
[19:14] Agilbxr: "of course....." *eyeballs Aliza* "you would LOVE Tortuga...."
[19:15] dizzyintellect: Jeff shrugs to Aliza then looks at Anna "Just what's so big about Tortuga?"
[19:15] Agilbxr: "it's a unique place. When I'm not being hunted by pirate kings, I'll take you"
[19:16] Nekira Sudacne: "I dunno, when all this is over I think I'd rather just settle back down"
[19:16] dizzyintellect: "Anywhere you wish" to Anna "Wait, did Aliza say settle down?"
[19:16] Nekira Sudacne: "I was settled when we met..."
[19:17] Nekira Sudacne: *grins as you get the impression that Aliza's idea of settled is rather...odd...*
[19:17] Nekira Sudacne: "But this is all off track. Jeff, you were making some kind of offer? "
[19:18] dizzyintellect: "It seems quite off track. Just what brings you ladies here?"
[19:18] Agilbxr: (lol...great minds or something...)
[19:18] Agilbxr: (probably or somethign)
[19:23] dizzyintellect: "So..."
[19:25] dizzyintellect: Jeff looks to Anna and Aliza expectantly
[19:25] Nekira Sudacne: "Well, just that. I'd like someone to help run it. And Lien needs some refinement. a man named Miguel is already seeing to most of Lien's training, but she'll need a bit of...polish"
[19:26] Agilbxr: *shrugs* "I'm just kinda along for the ride"
[19:26] dizzyintellect: "You want me to polish Lien?"
[19:27] Nekira Sudacne: "In a matter of speaking. Obviously" *glances at Anna* "I'm referring to other matters. Attitude, grace"
[19:29] Agilbxr: "you are actually serious about wanting a partner with setting up a brothel" *has a funny look*
[19:31] dizzyintellect: "I think she is... So, I'm to pimp Lien while you are away? And establish a brothel?"
[19:32] dizzyintellect: Jeff looks to Anna uncertainly
[19:34] Agilbxr: "um...I think it would be better to work this out when we get home." *glances at Aliza* "you as much as said I wasn't going to remember this when I woke up. And this isn't the kind of decision to make in a dream I may or may not remember"
[19:34] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles* "No, I said there was a chance. the odds are better that you will"
[19:34] dizzyintellect: "Still, this is a big decision" Jeff frowns
[19:35] Nekira Sudacne: "What, haven't either of you followed your dreams before?" *Grins*
[19:35] Agilbxr: "still..." *looks at Jeff and chuckles* "it is something i'd rather discuss in person"
[19:37] dizzyintellect: Jeff nods "Opening a brothel is a big leap"
[19:38] Nekira Sudacne: "Oh come on, the only way to do something like this is to just dive right into it. Sure, you can get togeather, talk about it, mull it over, in the end it's just gonna come down to rather or not you WANT to"
[19:40] Agilbxr: "right. But I'd rather talk about it and mull over it. Without an audience"
[19:41] Nekira Sudacne: *chuckles* "It always amazes me some people's reluctance to go with what they want to do. I've never hesitated when it comes to what I want"
[19:41] dizzyintellect: "This is the second time she's tried to watch us..."
[19:42] Agilbxr: "Aliza, I'm not sure I WANT to run a brothel...."
[19:42] Nekira Sudacne: "I didn't ask YOU to, I asked Him"
[19:42] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles*
[19:42] Nekira Sudacne: "You don't have to do anything"
[19:43] Agilbxr: *throws up her hands and walks a short distance away, muttering unintelligibly*
[19:43] Nekira Sudacne: *looks at Jeff* "Am I missing something?"
[19:45] dizzyintellect: "I want to be with Anna, but I don't know beyond that either. I'll make sure Lien is safe when she works until you all get back and Anna and I can discuss this"
[19:47] Nekira Sudacne: "Sounds good to me. So how are things going there anyway?"
[19:48] dizzyintellect: "It's only been a few days. And I think i'd like to talk to Anna..." and Jeff follows her
[19:49] Nekira Sudacne: *shrugs* "Well, I can't leave without taking Anna back with me, so I'll just wait over here..."
[19:49] dizzyintellect: "Thank you"
[19:49] Agilbxr: *is sitting on a log or stone or handy sitting place, still muttering softly*
[19:52] dizzyintellect: Jeff sits by Anna, with an arm around her "She's kinda thick for a psychic"
[19:52] Agilbxr: *smiles at him and leans on his shoulder* "she doesn't understand love I think"
[19:54] dizzyintellect: "Oh, she and Ringo love each other in their own way. But she doesn't understand the desire to be with that one special person'
[19:56] Agilbxr: "that too" *smiles at him* "sure wish I could do this in person, although it's pretty nice in dream too"
[19:57] dizzyintellect: "I know. Aliza does have her moments. But what of our future?"
[19:58] Agilbxr: "good question. I need to do something about Kryang. What, I don't know., but something"
[19:59] dizzyintellect: "Sail down and take him down?"
[20:00] Agilbxr: "that won't be easy. We'd need a lot of help, and a significant amount of luck"
[20:02] dizzyintellect: "Like a couple more divine ladies, a Mind Melter cleverly disguised as the dirtiest whore ever born, a Gunslinger, an Elven Cyber-Knight, a Psi-Stalker who moves like a Juicer, a broken down knight..."
[20:03] Agilbxr: *chuckles and nods* "good point. Especially the broken down knight...he's the best. Of course, he's not really broken down..."
[20:04] dizzyintellect: Jeff smiles "Whoever heard of people needing their god's faith in them..."
[20:05] Agilbxr: "most people. Ok... at least those that don't live in Juarez"
[20:10] dizzyintellect: Jeff smiles "Then again, most people never get touched like you touched me... and..."as you notice you and Jeff are seated in a back corner booth of a restaurant. It's candle-lit and mariachi band playing romantic music in the background
[20:11] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "nice little restaurant"
[20:14] Agilbxr: *looks at the table* "some enchiladas and a nice sangria perhaps?"
[20:14] dizzyintellect: "Sounds good to me. How'd you take us here?"
[20:14] Agilbxr: "I thought you did"
[20:15] dizzyintellect: "Not I"
[20:15] Agilbxr: "it's your dream" *chuckles* "So we'll blame Aliza"
[20:16] dizzyintellect: "I'd say so" he shrugs "Still some enchiladas and a sangria sounds good"
[20:17] Agilbxr: "so think about them. Maybe they'll appear" *grins*
[20:18] dizzyintellect: Jeff frowns and a waiter brings the order
[20:19] Agilbxr: *grins* "I like this world"
[20:20] dizzyintellect: Jeff laughs and raises his glass "To helpful whores"
[20:21] Agilbxr: *clinks her glass with Jeff's and then takes a drink* "yum"
[20:25] dizzyintellect: "Shhh, she might hear that" he grins and drinks
[20:26] Agilbxr: "that's ok, I don't mind if she knows I'm enjoying my sangria"
[20:28] dizzyintellect: He laughs "So, you'll hurry up and retrieve Ringo, come home, and we'll go gently remind this pirate lord we'd like to be left alone"
[20:29] Agilbxr: "we are working on that part. We are following signs they left as to where they are, but we had to stop for the night. The place is infested with zombies, but thankfully, they run from a torch. "
[20:31] dizzyintellect: "That's good. still, stay safe. I'd hate your eulogy to start with 'here lies Anna, not quite as beautiful now that she's all corpsified and gross'"
[20:33] Agilbxr: *laughs* "nah, It'll take a lot more than a damn zombie to take me down. Of course, this group may succeed in making me crazy, but that's my own fault I guess.
[20:34] dizzyintellect: "What did they do?"
[20:38] Agilbxr: "they are special."
[20:39] dizzyintellect: "I suppose they are"
[20:44] Agilbxr: "it's like herding cats"
[20:45] dizzyintellect: "Most likely. At least Aguirre's three should cooperate well"
[20:46] Agilbxr: "they are quite scarily cooperative actually. I've forgotten how to deal with someone that follows commands without a damn argument about it"
[20:47] Nekira Sudacne: "I heard that" comes a voice from a seat some booths over
[20:47] Agilbxr: *chuckles softly*
[20:47] dizzyintellect: Jeff chuckles "A romantic moment so long as she can watch..."
[20:48] Agilbxr: "she'd like it better if we'd just get busy here on this table" *checks it out to see how sturdy it is*
[20:48] Nekira Sudacne: Sturdy, yet soft as a bed (Hey she made it)
[20:49] dizzyintellect: "True, she would" he takes another sip "She would"
[20:50] Agilbxr: *chuckles*
[20:51] Nekira Sudacne: "Hey, at least I'm only listening and not looking"
[20:51] Agilbxr: "so she says"
[20:51] dizzyintellect: Jeff shakes his head "Any idea how long you'll be gone yet?"
[20:53] Nekira Sudacne: "Well, given the rate of time, probably a month of our time and a week for you"
[20:53] Agilbxr: "no idea. Time here doesn't run the same, it's much faster I think. So we could be here 2 months, get home, and it is only two real days"
[20:55] dizzyintellect: He nods "You'll pay me more frequent visits?"
[20:56] Agilbxr: "talk to Aliza. She's the one who instigated this visit"
[20:56] dizzyintellect: "She instigated it?"
[20:56] Nekira Sudacne: "Possibly not. I mean think about it. if it's only two days your time that's only two nights we can visit"
[20:57] Agilbxr: "yeah, she interrupted a very nice dream and insisted we had to come see you, in your dreams. It's a bit odd, but hey, I've seen odder"
[20:57] Nekira Sudacne: "Do you really want to see MY idea of an odd dream?" she says amused
[20:58] dizzyintellect: Jeff coughs "That's quite allright, thank you"
[20:59] Agilbxr: "no thanks. We are good with a Mexican restaurant and sangria"
[21:00] dizzyintellect: "Yes we are, for which we thank you"
[21:00] Nekira Sudacne: Aliza laughs as the mariachi band disappears, although music seems to come from nowhere as Aliza appears on stage wearing a beautiful red gown and begins to sing, it's actually a very good romantic song
[21:01] dizzyintellect: "And she sings very well"
[21:01] Agilbxr: *rolls her eyes* "she's something else"
[21:05] dizzyintellect: Jeff leans back and enjoys his enchilada and sangria
[21:05] Agilbxr: *does the same, enjoying her time with jeff, even if it isn't 'real'"
[21:06] Nekira Sudacne: *Signs for a while and doesn't interrupt, although her dress seems to shrink with every song
[21:07] dizzyintellect: "Aliza, would you be so kind as to being Anna back like this should your quest prove prolonged?"
[21:08] Nekira Sudacne: "Sure thing, as long as zombies aren't trying to eat my brains at the time"
[21:08] dizzyintellect: "Sounds fair enough"
[21:09] Nekira Sudacne: "But I request one thing in return"
[21:09] Agilbxr: "if the zombies are trying to eat our brains, I doubt we'll be asleep"
[21:13] dizzyintellect: "What's that?"
[21:13] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles as her dress vanishes* "Can I come in this?"
[21:20] Agilbxr: "I can ignore you"
[21:21] Nekira Sudacne: "You usually do anyway" *grins*
[21:21] Agilbxr: "exactly"
[21:21] dizzyintellect: "And you ignore her ignoring you"
[21:22] Nekira Sudacne: "See, it works for everyone"
[21:25] dizzyintellect: "I suppose there's worse things you could ask for. I believe we agree to your terms"
[21:25] Nekira Sudacne: *grins* "Done then. Care to seal the deal with a kiss?"
[21:26] dizzyintellect: "Sure" and he kisses Anna for longer than humanly possible
[21:26] Nekira Sudacne: *laughs*
[21:27] Agilbxr: *enjoys her kiss*
[21:29] dizzyintellect: When Jedd pulls up "Dreams can be handy"
[21:29] Agilbxr: *breathless* "yes indeed"
[21:30] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles as you two pull out to a large cake between you two*
[21:31] dizzyintellect: "Cake too. This is some restaurant"
[21:33] Nekira Sudacne: "It's whatever I want to to be. Isn't it nice to ahve someone who can change dreams?"
[21:33] dizzyintellect: "It is handy"
[21:35] Nekira Sudacne: "So! i'll give you two a gift. What would you like, and I promise I'll actually leave you alone this time"
[21:36] Agilbxr: *glances at Jeff* "hmmm... can you put us back where you found me?"
[21:37] Nekira Sudacne: Of course" she snaps her fingers and is gone, and you two are on a Hawaiian beach with pina coladas
[21:38] Agilbxr: *smiles* "do you think she's really gone?"
[21:39] dizzyintellect: "I don't think so, you need her to get back or something. But we're as alone as we're going to be"
[21:41] Agilbxr: "hmmm..." *smiles at him, and takes advantage of the almost aloneness!*
[21:41] dizzyintellect: Jeff enjoys being taken advantage of in Anna's chosen manner
[21:41] dizzyintellect: Lots
[21:54] dizzyintellect: "Do you think she saw us?"
[22:06] Agilbxr: "probably"
[22:07] Nekira Sudacne: "Would you believe I kept my eyes closed?" *seems more serious than usual
[22:08] dizzyintellect: "I'd like to"
[22:08] Agilbxr: "I prefer too"
[22:10] Nekira Sudacne: "Well then I'll just tell you I put on my own show on the other side of the mountain to distract me. I wasn't paying attention"
[22:10] dizzyintellect: Jeff chuckles
[22:10] Agilbxr: "That works too"
[22:12] Nekira Sudacne: "Would you like to see?"
[22:12] Agilbxr: "nope"
[22:12] dizzyintellect: As Jeff and Anna are lying partially in the surf in the afterglow
[22:12] Nekira Sudacne: "Well I'll eave you alone then
[22:14] dizzyintellect: "Thank you"
[22:22] dizzyintellect: A while later "Dawn must come sometime"
[22:22] dizzyintellect: Jef and Anna are sitting on a bench, watching the sunset this time
[22:23] Agilbxr: "damn it..."
[22:25] dizzyintellect: "At least you can return tomorrow"
[22:25] Nekira Sudacne: "Ya know, with the time flows..."
[22:26] Nekira Sudacne: "Doesn't that mean that it's likely that by the time we return next, you'll still be asleep since it hasn't been a full day?"
[22:26] Agilbxr: *smiles* 'it's quite possible"
[22:27] dizzyintellect: "I don't know. That stuff's over my head"
[22:32] Agilbxr: "either way, I'll be back"
[22:32] dizzyintellect: "You better be"
[22:33] dizzyintellect: "I don't know who'd take care of Medea while I come get you"
[22:35] Agilbxr: *smiles* "you don't have to come get me"
[22:36] dizzyintellect: "I do if you don't come back"
[22:36] Agilbxr: "there is no doubt I'd be back. So there... "
[22:37] dizzyintellect: "Good"
[17:35] Agilbxr: Jeff and her, sitting on a beach in Hawaii. Not even anything naughty.
[17:37] Nekira Sudacne: There's a nice pickup in the breeze as you see aliza slowly walking up the beach in the distance
[17:38] Agilbxr: *blinks, wondering what the heck Aliza is doing here*
[17:39] Nekira Sudacne: After a bit she gets closer, and she's wearing her birthday suit "Nice beach, isn't it nice to get away for a while?"
[18:07] Agilbxr: "um...Hi" *Anna and Jeff are both wearing regular bathing suits*
[18:08] Nekira Sudacne: "Unusual, your more taciturn in your dreams than in real life. Usually it's quite the opposite"
[18:09] Agilbxr: "I'm just not sure how you are here" *waves at the island, not really understanding she's only dreaming quite yet*
[18:09] Nekira Sudacne: "I'm psychic" she points out
[18:10] Agilbxr: "and that makes you able to come to Hawaii?"
[18:10] Nekira Sudacne: "Only in your dreams..."
[18:10] Agilbxr: "dream? "
[18:11] Nekira Sudacne: "Yes, a dream" *reaches behind her back to pull out an ice cream cone that's layered with about twice as much as could physically balance "Ice cream?"
[18:12] Agilbxr: *shakes her head* "so you're telling me I'm dreaming, and you just entered my dream?"
[18:12] Nekira Sudacne: "More or less" *licks the ice cream a bit before it seems to disappear" "Where's Hawaii?"
[18:14] Agilbxr: "In the pacific ocean" *still looks...baffled* "
[18:15] Nekira Sudacne: *chuckles and sits down and lets her get her bearings a bit*
[18:15] Agilbxr: "so, um...why are you here?"
[18:17] Nekira Sudacne: *laughs* "I suppose you wouldn't believe it was just a friendly visit, would you?" she grins with all the innocence of a Cheshire cat
[18:18] Agilbxr: "it seems like a lot of effort for a friendly visit"
[18:18] Nekira Sudacne: "I needed your help." she pauses "It's hard to pierce dimensions with this power. I want to talk to Jeff"
[18:19] Agilbxr: *looks at dream Jeff* "but if this is my dream, your not really talking to Jeff are you?"
[18:20] Nekira Sudacne: "Well, no, he's your dream persona of him. Hrm. Hard to explain. But no, what I need you to do, is let me merge with your mind like this, then concentrate on Jeff really hard. then we'll both be able to go to his dream"
[18:21] Agilbxr: "um...ok. Sure I guess. Can you do me a favor though? Next time, let me know this is going to happen before I go to sleep. I'm not sure I'm going to believe this is real when I wake up"
[18:24] Nekira Sudacne: "It's a dream, there's a chance you won't even remember it at all"
[18:25] Agilbxr: "oh. That's so odd"
[18:26] Agilbxr: "what do you need me to do?"
[18:29] Nekira Sudacne: "Just think on Jeff, think really hard, anything that reminds you of him"
[18:30] Agilbxr: *looks over at dream Jeff, and startles when she notices he's not there*
[18:30] Agilbxr: *blinks a couple of times, then works to concentrate hard on Jeff*
[18:36] dizzyintellect: Aliza, you have a harder time than usual reaching Jeff's dreampool because of the dimensional distance involved, but you do get there. You arrive at the burned out hust of a village with Jeff kneeling over several graves. He seems unaware of your arrival
[18:37] Nekira Sudacne: *Walks up with unusual quietness as she seems to be dressed in a white gown this time, although very flimsy* "Never forget, huh?" she says softly
[18:38] dizzyintellect: His head jerks up as he whips around, a sword appearing from nowhere. "Aliza? What are you doing here?"
[18:39] Agilbxr: sorry, missed the group invite coming up...
[18:39] Agilbxr: *looks quite sad about Jeff's dream*
[18:40] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles* "Well, I came with what _I_ thought would be good and bad news for you"
[18:40] dizzyintellect: He blinks "Anna?"
[18:41] dizzyintellect: Clearly confused
[18:41] Agilbxr: "yeah. I'm not quite sure how I'm here, but it has something to do with Aliza's psychic abilities. I'm kind of baffled myself"
[18:43] dizzyintellect: Jeff hugs Anna "Aguirre has found you then?"
[18:43] Nekira Sudacne: "Who's Aguirre?"
[18:44] Agilbxr: *nods* "he did. Along with an odd little group of people. I'm still not sure HOW he found me"
[18:44] Agilbxr: *looks at Aliza* "one of the guys that came to meet us today. He's my first mate from my pirate days"
[18:45] dizzyintellect: "He showed up in Juarez with a Crazy, a Techno-Wizard, and... goddess of some sort... at least her chi was similar to yours and Silvie's"
[18:45] Nekira Sudacne: "Ah, right, don't remember him so well" *grins* "You'll be glad to know I'm going clean"
[18:46] Agilbxr: "huh...I'll have to have a chat with her. I didn't really have time"
[18:46] dizzyintellect: Jeff tilts his head "You're going clean too?" Looking from Anna to Aliza
[18:47] Agilbxr: "I asked her too for this trip. She agreed with my reasoning"
[18:48] dizzyintellect: "Wait a minute... Just what's going on here?"
[18:49] Agilbxr: *looks to Aliza*
[18:49] Nekira Sudacne: "Your being ganged up on" *smiles* "That or we're just having fun. but it's true, I am going clean. Well mostly. I'll probablly have a drink here or there" *shrugs*
[18:49] dizzyintellect: "i see... Then this is about your.... Business proposal?"
[18:50] Agilbxr: *looks at Aliza* "you should probably go cold turkey, at least for now. It'll be easier that way"
[18:51] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles at Jeff* "Well, yes, it is" Then after she finishes she turns to answer Anna* "If I go cold turkey, I'll go into withdraw while surrounded by zombies, is that wise?"
[18:51] Agilbxr: "i can fix that, it's a simple spell "
[18:53] Nekira Sudacne: *blinks* "You can? Wow" *grins* "Sounds good to me"
[18:54] Agilbxr: "one of these days I'll have to show you exactly how much magic I'm capable of"
[18:54] dizzyintellect: "I might have to object to showing her all your magic"
[18:55] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "ok, I'll keep that kind between us"
[18:55] Nekira Sudacne: *grins at Jeff* "Oh don't go all jealous on me..."
[18:57] dizzyintellect: Jeff grins at Aliza
[18:57] Nekira Sudacne: *looks at Anna* "Don't you get jealous either now" *grins*
[18:58] dizzyintellect: "We aren't all as generous as you, Aliza"
[18:59] Agilbxr: "I'm not jealous. You try to seduce him again, I'll have to kill you. That's not jealousy, it's practicality" *grins*
[19:11] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles* "See, that's the problem. There's nothing WRONG with sharing"
[19:11] Agilbxr: "depends on what you are sharing"
[19:12] Nekira Sudacne: *shakes her head* "You'd think a pirate would be more understanding..."
[19:13] dizzyintellect: "Pirates are real stingy with their booty"
[19:13] Nekira Sudacne: *Laughs* "So that's what you are now?" she says to Jeff
[19:13] Agilbxr: "want to go raiding? Sure! I'm your woman. I'll go marauding with you, and even accompany you to Tortuga, but you can't have my man. Sorry" *doesn't sound the least bit sorry*
[19:14] Agilbxr: "of course....." *eyeballs Aliza* "you would LOVE Tortuga...."
[19:15] dizzyintellect: Jeff shrugs to Aliza then looks at Anna "Just what's so big about Tortuga?"
[19:15] Agilbxr: "it's a unique place. When I'm not being hunted by pirate kings, I'll take you"
[19:16] Nekira Sudacne: "I dunno, when all this is over I think I'd rather just settle back down"
[19:16] dizzyintellect: "Anywhere you wish" to Anna "Wait, did Aliza say settle down?"
[19:16] Nekira Sudacne: "I was settled when we met..."
[19:17] Nekira Sudacne: *grins as you get the impression that Aliza's idea of settled is rather...odd...*
[19:17] Nekira Sudacne: "But this is all off track. Jeff, you were making some kind of offer? "
[19:18] dizzyintellect: "It seems quite off track. Just what brings you ladies here?"
[19:18] Agilbxr: (lol...great minds or something...)
[19:18] Agilbxr: (probably or somethign)
[19:23] dizzyintellect: "So..."
[19:25] dizzyintellect: Jeff looks to Anna and Aliza expectantly
[19:25] Nekira Sudacne: "Well, just that. I'd like someone to help run it. And Lien needs some refinement. a man named Miguel is already seeing to most of Lien's training, but she'll need a bit of...polish"
[19:26] Agilbxr: *shrugs* "I'm just kinda along for the ride"
[19:26] dizzyintellect: "You want me to polish Lien?"
[19:27] Nekira Sudacne: "In a matter of speaking. Obviously" *glances at Anna* "I'm referring to other matters. Attitude, grace"
[19:29] Agilbxr: "you are actually serious about wanting a partner with setting up a brothel" *has a funny look*
[19:31] dizzyintellect: "I think she is... So, I'm to pimp Lien while you are away? And establish a brothel?"
[19:32] dizzyintellect: Jeff looks to Anna uncertainly
[19:34] Agilbxr: "um...I think it would be better to work this out when we get home." *glances at Aliza* "you as much as said I wasn't going to remember this when I woke up. And this isn't the kind of decision to make in a dream I may or may not remember"
[19:34] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles* "No, I said there was a chance. the odds are better that you will"
[19:34] dizzyintellect: "Still, this is a big decision" Jeff frowns
[19:35] Nekira Sudacne: "What, haven't either of you followed your dreams before?" *Grins*
[19:35] Agilbxr: "still..." *looks at Jeff and chuckles* "it is something i'd rather discuss in person"
[19:37] dizzyintellect: Jeff nods "Opening a brothel is a big leap"
[19:38] Nekira Sudacne: "Oh come on, the only way to do something like this is to just dive right into it. Sure, you can get togeather, talk about it, mull it over, in the end it's just gonna come down to rather or not you WANT to"
[19:40] Agilbxr: "right. But I'd rather talk about it and mull over it. Without an audience"
[19:41] Nekira Sudacne: *chuckles* "It always amazes me some people's reluctance to go with what they want to do. I've never hesitated when it comes to what I want"
[19:41] dizzyintellect: "This is the second time she's tried to watch us..."
[19:42] Agilbxr: "Aliza, I'm not sure I WANT to run a brothel...."
[19:42] Nekira Sudacne: "I didn't ask YOU to, I asked Him"
[19:42] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles*
[19:42] Nekira Sudacne: "You don't have to do anything"
[19:43] Agilbxr: *throws up her hands and walks a short distance away, muttering unintelligibly*
[19:43] Nekira Sudacne: *looks at Jeff* "Am I missing something?"
[19:45] dizzyintellect: "I want to be with Anna, but I don't know beyond that either. I'll make sure Lien is safe when she works until you all get back and Anna and I can discuss this"
[19:47] Nekira Sudacne: "Sounds good to me. So how are things going there anyway?"
[19:48] dizzyintellect: "It's only been a few days. And I think i'd like to talk to Anna..." and Jeff follows her
[19:49] Nekira Sudacne: *shrugs* "Well, I can't leave without taking Anna back with me, so I'll just wait over here..."
[19:49] dizzyintellect: "Thank you"
[19:49] Agilbxr: *is sitting on a log or stone or handy sitting place, still muttering softly*
[19:52] dizzyintellect: Jeff sits by Anna, with an arm around her "She's kinda thick for a psychic"
[19:52] Agilbxr: *smiles at him and leans on his shoulder* "she doesn't understand love I think"
[19:54] dizzyintellect: "Oh, she and Ringo love each other in their own way. But she doesn't understand the desire to be with that one special person'
[19:56] Agilbxr: "that too" *smiles at him* "sure wish I could do this in person, although it's pretty nice in dream too"
[19:57] dizzyintellect: "I know. Aliza does have her moments. But what of our future?"
[19:58] Agilbxr: "good question. I need to do something about Kryang. What, I don't know., but something"
[19:59] dizzyintellect: "Sail down and take him down?"
[20:00] Agilbxr: "that won't be easy. We'd need a lot of help, and a significant amount of luck"
[20:02] dizzyintellect: "Like a couple more divine ladies, a Mind Melter cleverly disguised as the dirtiest whore ever born, a Gunslinger, an Elven Cyber-Knight, a Psi-Stalker who moves like a Juicer, a broken down knight..."
[20:03] Agilbxr: *chuckles and nods* "good point. Especially the broken down knight...he's the best. Of course, he's not really broken down..."
[20:04] dizzyintellect: Jeff smiles "Whoever heard of people needing their god's faith in them..."
[20:05] Agilbxr: "most people. Ok... at least those that don't live in Juarez"
[20:10] dizzyintellect: Jeff smiles "Then again, most people never get touched like you touched me... and..."as you notice you and Jeff are seated in a back corner booth of a restaurant. It's candle-lit and mariachi band playing romantic music in the background
[20:11] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "nice little restaurant"
[20:14] Agilbxr: *looks at the table* "some enchiladas and a nice sangria perhaps?"
[20:14] dizzyintellect: "Sounds good to me. How'd you take us here?"
[20:14] Agilbxr: "I thought you did"
[20:15] dizzyintellect: "Not I"
[20:15] Agilbxr: "it's your dream" *chuckles* "So we'll blame Aliza"
[20:16] dizzyintellect: "I'd say so" he shrugs "Still some enchiladas and a sangria sounds good"
[20:17] Agilbxr: "so think about them. Maybe they'll appear" *grins*
[20:18] dizzyintellect: Jeff frowns and a waiter brings the order
[20:19] Agilbxr: *grins* "I like this world"
[20:20] dizzyintellect: Jeff laughs and raises his glass "To helpful whores"
[20:21] Agilbxr: *clinks her glass with Jeff's and then takes a drink* "yum"
[20:25] dizzyintellect: "Shhh, she might hear that" he grins and drinks
[20:26] Agilbxr: "that's ok, I don't mind if she knows I'm enjoying my sangria"
[20:28] dizzyintellect: He laughs "So, you'll hurry up and retrieve Ringo, come home, and we'll go gently remind this pirate lord we'd like to be left alone"
[20:29] Agilbxr: "we are working on that part. We are following signs they left as to where they are, but we had to stop for the night. The place is infested with zombies, but thankfully, they run from a torch. "
[20:31] dizzyintellect: "That's good. still, stay safe. I'd hate your eulogy to start with 'here lies Anna, not quite as beautiful now that she's all corpsified and gross'"
[20:33] Agilbxr: *laughs* "nah, It'll take a lot more than a damn zombie to take me down. Of course, this group may succeed in making me crazy, but that's my own fault I guess.
[20:34] dizzyintellect: "What did they do?"
[20:38] Agilbxr: "they are special."
[20:39] dizzyintellect: "I suppose they are"
[20:44] Agilbxr: "it's like herding cats"
[20:45] dizzyintellect: "Most likely. At least Aguirre's three should cooperate well"
[20:46] Agilbxr: "they are quite scarily cooperative actually. I've forgotten how to deal with someone that follows commands without a damn argument about it"
[20:47] Nekira Sudacne: "I heard that" comes a voice from a seat some booths over
[20:47] Agilbxr: *chuckles softly*
[20:47] dizzyintellect: Jeff chuckles "A romantic moment so long as she can watch..."
[20:48] Agilbxr: "she'd like it better if we'd just get busy here on this table" *checks it out to see how sturdy it is*
[20:48] Nekira Sudacne: Sturdy, yet soft as a bed (Hey she made it)
[20:49] dizzyintellect: "True, she would" he takes another sip "She would"
[20:50] Agilbxr: *chuckles*
[20:51] Nekira Sudacne: "Hey, at least I'm only listening and not looking"
[20:51] Agilbxr: "so she says"
[20:51] dizzyintellect: Jeff shakes his head "Any idea how long you'll be gone yet?"
[20:53] Nekira Sudacne: "Well, given the rate of time, probably a month of our time and a week for you"
[20:53] Agilbxr: "no idea. Time here doesn't run the same, it's much faster I think. So we could be here 2 months, get home, and it is only two real days"
[20:55] dizzyintellect: He nods "You'll pay me more frequent visits?"
[20:56] Agilbxr: "talk to Aliza. She's the one who instigated this visit"
[20:56] dizzyintellect: "She instigated it?"
[20:56] Nekira Sudacne: "Possibly not. I mean think about it. if it's only two days your time that's only two nights we can visit"
[20:57] Agilbxr: "yeah, she interrupted a very nice dream and insisted we had to come see you, in your dreams. It's a bit odd, but hey, I've seen odder"
[20:57] Nekira Sudacne: "Do you really want to see MY idea of an odd dream?" she says amused
[20:58] dizzyintellect: Jeff coughs "That's quite allright, thank you"
[20:59] Agilbxr: "no thanks. We are good with a Mexican restaurant and sangria"
[21:00] dizzyintellect: "Yes we are, for which we thank you"
[21:00] Nekira Sudacne: Aliza laughs as the mariachi band disappears, although music seems to come from nowhere as Aliza appears on stage wearing a beautiful red gown and begins to sing, it's actually a very good romantic song
[21:01] dizzyintellect: "And she sings very well"
[21:01] Agilbxr: *rolls her eyes* "she's something else"
[21:05] dizzyintellect: Jeff leans back and enjoys his enchilada and sangria
[21:05] Agilbxr: *does the same, enjoying her time with jeff, even if it isn't 'real'"
[21:06] Nekira Sudacne: *Signs for a while and doesn't interrupt, although her dress seems to shrink with every song
[21:07] dizzyintellect: "Aliza, would you be so kind as to being Anna back like this should your quest prove prolonged?"
[21:08] Nekira Sudacne: "Sure thing, as long as zombies aren't trying to eat my brains at the time"
[21:08] dizzyintellect: "Sounds fair enough"
[21:09] Nekira Sudacne: "But I request one thing in return"
[21:09] Agilbxr: "if the zombies are trying to eat our brains, I doubt we'll be asleep"
[21:13] dizzyintellect: "What's that?"
[21:13] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles as her dress vanishes* "Can I come in this?"
[21:20] Agilbxr: "I can ignore you"
[21:21] Nekira Sudacne: "You usually do anyway" *grins*
[21:21] Agilbxr: "exactly"
[21:21] dizzyintellect: "And you ignore her ignoring you"
[21:22] Nekira Sudacne: "See, it works for everyone"
[21:25] dizzyintellect: "I suppose there's worse things you could ask for. I believe we agree to your terms"
[21:25] Nekira Sudacne: *grins* "Done then. Care to seal the deal with a kiss?"
[21:26] dizzyintellect: "Sure" and he kisses Anna for longer than humanly possible
[21:26] Nekira Sudacne: *laughs*
[21:27] Agilbxr: *enjoys her kiss*
[21:29] dizzyintellect: When Jedd pulls up "Dreams can be handy"
[21:29] Agilbxr: *breathless* "yes indeed"
[21:30] Nekira Sudacne: *smiles as you two pull out to a large cake between you two*
[21:31] dizzyintellect: "Cake too. This is some restaurant"
[21:33] Nekira Sudacne: "It's whatever I want to to be. Isn't it nice to ahve someone who can change dreams?"
[21:33] dizzyintellect: "It is handy"
[21:35] Nekira Sudacne: "So! i'll give you two a gift. What would you like, and I promise I'll actually leave you alone this time"
[21:36] Agilbxr: *glances at Jeff* "hmmm... can you put us back where you found me?"
[21:37] Nekira Sudacne: Of course" she snaps her fingers and is gone, and you two are on a Hawaiian beach with pina coladas
[21:38] Agilbxr: *smiles* "do you think she's really gone?"
[21:39] dizzyintellect: "I don't think so, you need her to get back or something. But we're as alone as we're going to be"
[21:41] Agilbxr: "hmmm..." *smiles at him, and takes advantage of the almost aloneness!*
[21:41] dizzyintellect: Jeff enjoys being taken advantage of in Anna's chosen manner
[21:41] dizzyintellect: Lots
[21:54] dizzyintellect: "Do you think she saw us?"
[22:06] Agilbxr: "probably"
[22:07] Nekira Sudacne: "Would you believe I kept my eyes closed?" *seems more serious than usual
[22:08] dizzyintellect: "I'd like to"
[22:08] Agilbxr: "I prefer too"
[22:10] Nekira Sudacne: "Well then I'll just tell you I put on my own show on the other side of the mountain to distract me. I wasn't paying attention"
[22:10] dizzyintellect: Jeff chuckles
[22:10] Agilbxr: "That works too"
[22:12] Nekira Sudacne: "Would you like to see?"
[22:12] Agilbxr: "nope"
[22:12] dizzyintellect: As Jeff and Anna are lying partially in the surf in the afterglow
[22:12] Nekira Sudacne: "Well I'll eave you alone then
[22:14] dizzyintellect: "Thank you"
[22:22] dizzyintellect: A while later "Dawn must come sometime"
[22:22] dizzyintellect: Jef and Anna are sitting on a bench, watching the sunset this time
[22:23] Agilbxr: "damn it..."
[22:25] dizzyintellect: "At least you can return tomorrow"
[22:25] Nekira Sudacne: "Ya know, with the time flows..."
[22:26] Nekira Sudacne: "Doesn't that mean that it's likely that by the time we return next, you'll still be asleep since it hasn't been a full day?"
[22:26] Agilbxr: *smiles* 'it's quite possible"
[22:27] dizzyintellect: "I don't know. That stuff's over my head"
[22:32] Agilbxr: "either way, I'll be back"
[22:32] dizzyintellect: "You better be"
[22:33] dizzyintellect: "I don't know who'd take care of Medea while I come get you"
[22:35] Agilbxr: *smiles* "you don't have to come get me"
[22:36] dizzyintellect: "I do if you don't come back"
[22:36] Agilbxr: "there is no doubt I'd be back. So there... "
[22:37] dizzyintellect: "Good"
