Pax RP

You know it. B-)

rosebarks I'm confused as to where your char is. If you woke up to hear walking, Fade and Athena talking, and are able to see Mary (who appears to have been outside up a tree) then you can't be in one of the caverns as we're by the fire outside.

If you are in a cavern then you can't really have been disturbed.

So, are you in a cavern, or outside? :S

Hell yeah, Athena's using Paradoxical <big><big>_St^ab_le _Tim^e _Lo^op_s</big></big>

Yaaay&#33;

She was by the fire

Your RP is 26 pages in and almost ending... Sounds like the perfect time for me to join in&#33;

EDIT: And now I have&#33; In the most disruptive way possible&#33; Hooray&#33;

This has been a really awesome RP and I feel like an idiot for not simply jumping in earlier. Reading all 26 pages in one go was tough, but worth it. There were a lot of laughs (especially from CP's posts&#33;), some pretty intense action and lots of interesting interactions between a variety of characters, some of whom I'm familiar with and others that I'd never seen before.

I was also pretty surprised to see my own character mentioned&#33;
<blockquote class='quote_blockquote'><dl><dt>Swix</dt><dd>&nbsp;</dd></dl><div>"Fair enough...." A shifting sound reached Fades ears, before a figure appeared at the entrance to the cave, obscured by the darkness. "But HollowEyes was so much more fun."[/quote]
WHO COULD IT BE?&#33;?&#33;?&#33;?&#33; (Am I correct in understanding that it was CP?)

Seeing all of these Blackstar characters running around makes me wish that I could bring some of my older characters over here, but I kind of killed HollowEyes off in a way that makes it pretty much impossible to bring him back - tricking an incredibly destructive (yet ignorant) God to remove himself, Little Sister and their amalgamated mirror selves from the multiverse, and in doing so taking the God along with him.

That said, I suppose I can at least pass a message or two along from my old characters via my new characters...

Yaaay&#33;[/quote]
Actually, one nitpick-ish point that I must raise (it is my cross to bear) though is when Tav posted this right here on page 10:
<blockquote class='quote_blockquote'><dl><dt>Tav</dt><dd>&nbsp;</dd></dl><div>((When time is paused, it's impossible to physically alter things; Instead you have to position yourself, unpause time, then do the action.))[/quote]
Then posted the following right here on page 25:
<blockquote class='quote_blockquote'><dl><dt>Tav</dt><dd>&nbsp;</dd></dl><div>_(2)~Athena_~(2) knelt in the bushes, watching Fade stride over to Athena. The knife should scratch her right. . .about. . . about. . .
She froze time, stepping out of phase. She took a simple, unpoisoned dagger, and scratched Athena's arm, covering the sapphire blade with a simple cloth.[/quote]
I actually really hate nitpicking at this particular part because as I read it I was thinking "oho, brilliant&#33;" to myself (your use of stable time loops is very impressive), but now that I think about it this is kind of bugging me. Was it a mistake on your part Tav, or can you actually alter stuff while time is frozen... or have I misread your post entirely?

Glad you liked it 3kul&#33;

Ah yes, that was CP&#33; Bothering Holloweyes on the sparse few occasions the two met was always such fun, and he will be missed. Which leads to your post&#33; Wow, so many questions and points raised...

How did the Dagger break?&#33; Unless this was answered before on Blackstar...but last time I heard it was intact. And how close were the ties between the Somelier and Holloweyes?&#33; But most puzzling of all...

What could Holloweyes possibly have for CP?&#33; :O

That was. . .A mistake on my part. I had completely forgotten about that&#33; Well, uh, to the retcon-mobile&#33; I guess it is possible to physically modify things? Or something? Man, I wish I had remembered that. Unless. . .Unless Athena went back to when the world was in formation, and rewrote the laws of time-travel. Or something. XDD Or I could say it's due to Aeloci messing with things.

Wait, wait, no, I got it. Athena is not yet skilled enough to manipulate things physically during what I've been calling out of phase or freezetime, but she -will- have that skill later. Specifically, the 'later' where she manipulates things physically during freezetime.

And yes, I do indeed love the whole 'coloring things to give them a theme'. I suppose I got that from MSPA or something.

Edit: I'm reading the thread from the start, for no reason. And wow, Athena's been through some personality drift since The Beginning started. But I think I've got her personality down. Guardian's been pretty set in his ways, though.

Alright, cool, I just wanted to make sure that I understood this properly and now I do&#33; Sounds like future Athena is a bit more dangerous than past Athena, I'll need to be careful of her... :ermm:

I think it looks pretty cool, but I may be biased as a fellow reader of MSPA

Yeah, I did enjoy the times when CP and HollowEyes clashed, it was always a lot of fun.

No, this wasn't answered on Blackstar, so you haven't missed anything. All of the relics were tied to the realm, relying on DP and the Dojo's energies for their power, and were an integral part of the Dojo in many ways - simply put, they were never meant to be removed, so the dagger broke the moment it was pulled out of Blackstar. It's basically a normal dagger now... except that it's broken, so a bit harder to use. With Blackstar gone I figure it shouldn't be too much of a problem, but should it ever come back... Well, I suppose that we'll just cross that bridge if/when we come to it.

<blockquote class='quote_blockquote'><dl><dt>CP</dt><dd>&nbsp;</dd></dl><div>And how close were the ties between the Somelier and Holloweyes?&#33;[/quote]
I'll answer this in more detail later, but the short answer is 'not very'. The Sommelier refers to HollowEyes as an old friend, but their relationship is not so deep that he'd be willing to carry on old alliances and grudges in HollowEyes' place, he's simply willing to do HollowEyes a few small favours.

You'll have to wait and see&#33;

Oh cool, very interesting&#33;

*Runs off to get some contact cement for the Dagger*

And that is officially the creepiest Emoticon I have ever seen :O

Lil Cal is a fairly creepy puppet... but also pretty awesome.

Whoh....

... Just whoh.

... Your puppet thingy is creepy and hurts my eyes so early in the morning 3kul :O

Sorry, perhaps I should have given some kind of warning

Posted, and with that both deliveries have been made&#33; Coolpikaaa, I don't want to spoil too much about your 'gift' and its origins but I can tell you right now that it is perfectly safe to handle - it won't explode or do anything horrible the second that you touch it

Ah, I see.

Given the usual physical nature of these charms, I certainly thought it might activate on contact...

But, Mhm... This one is surely going to be a puzzle...

But, anyway, Thanks for the Interesting gift 3kul

Sorry everyone but this rp is going a little too fast as I've been away doing other things lately and been unable to focus. I am extremely sorry about withdrawing so late into the RP.
