OC DUEL THREAD ACT 2

the spark frowns

'oh come on that flame was literally made of my soul, you might have had an interesting experience if you had held it'

he says with a wink


'anyway, as much as i love chin wagging and sucking face with you there's got to be more to do around here'

The Star shrugs and looks around

"There's a couple people around, but I dunno if they're doing anything fun"

A light sparkles in the Star's eyes

"Maybe we can get a round of flame baseball going"

the spark pulls out a flaming scythe whose shaft is thick like a club from the duat

'i am game if you are'

(( I am doubting the combat abilities of a Lord of Tea, but I am considering bringing that in. ))

The Maid notices the Starbucks-bearing Knight, and flies up to meet him. "Oh good, you brought drinks!"

The Knight looks at the Maid, not quite comprehending.

"I beg your pardon?"

He suddenly remembers the Starbucks in his hands.

"OH. Yeah, I was getting some drinks for my friends, when suddenly I wound up here. Now this batch of venti mocha cappuccinos with double shots of espresso is getting cold, and I'm not particularly thirsty..."

"Well, I certainly wouldn't mind having some," the Maid says. "Though if you see a Spacey guy and a girl wearing Mind colors, don't let them have any. They're hyper enough as it is." She glances down toward the crater.

"I'll keep that in mind," says the Knight, following the Maid's glance. The two certainly seemed...an intriguing pair, for lack of a better adjective.

"Anyway, here you go. I'm certainly not using it." He hands the Maid one of the cups of cappuccino, still mostly warm.

"Oh, sweet!" The Maid takes a big gulp and suddenly begins spluttering and coughing.

"Ugh, went down the wrong pipe," she says when she's able to breathe again. Then she starts giggling.

The Knight boggles vacantly at these shenanigans. He can't resist the urge to chuckle a bit himself.

After a moment, he glances out at the sky surrounding them. "So, uh...what is there to do here, exactly?"

"The snake fridge is supposed to now be a pile of broken machinery and dead animals. It isn't, which means that it is now on a one-way trip to a prime location from which to bite me in the ass."

The Bard slams the next few fridges shut in frustration, but not at being unable to find the right one.

"Just out of curiosity, everyone here is above soul strength 4, right?"

The Maid gets her laughter under control, and then shrugs. "I don't know, honestly. I just got here probably a few minutes ago."

"Ah." The Knight sighs a bit, then sets down the drinks he'd almost forgotten he was carrying.

"Well, in that case, shall we just walk around for a bit?" He takes a few steps away in no particular direction, as if to serve as an invitation.

"Alright." The Maid follows after the Knight.

The Mage asks the Bard what soul strength 4 means

The Witch shrugs, equally confused about the soul strength thing. She has started a game of solitaire while waiting, and failed to notice the fact that the Maid has left.

"It's..."

The Bard pauses for a moment, trying to think of an explanation that is sane sounding and/or not too specific to the situation. He fails.

"...Not important. Probably."

The Bard inspects the contents of a few more fridges, until finally...

"Found it!"

FEZpack: Using secret technology totally not stolen from some government, this jetpack gives the user the ability to shift through the 4th dimension. Confusing as hell, but fun. (Annoying 5th dimensional guide sold separately.)

Kcaptej: Basically a noclipping device, it allows the user to fly through solid objects like air.

Memory of a Distant Dream: I'm not sure what this one does, it looks like it was made with a cruder but more logical alchemy system. It appears to be a backpack with blade-wings that are hot to the touch attached to it, and has a red crescent symbol. Gives off an uneasy feeling.

"There's more, but I need to remember what they do."

((ooooh can i have the kcaptej? not that i need it, cause portals))

The Star's eyes flash and she throws her bastard sword into the dark abyss below.

In the distance, a faint cry can be heard.

The sword reappears in the Star's hand.

'uh'


'what was that?'

"That just makes me think it's more important, you know." The Witch looks interested in the Kcaptej, but waits to see if anything better shows up.

((Ooh I want that kcaptej))

((Everyone wants that, I

EDIT: think))

((having fun with the phone i see oj))

((Tomorrow I'll be visiting my parents again and I'll have internet and I'll be using my laptop and this stupid phone can go eat a dick and choke on it))

((Untill next monday, where I'll need it again))
