WEEK 2

[bathymetric]

So far, good news! You've managed to avoid killing! A week has passed in the facility, but how many more are there to go until one of you tries out Rule Seven? I mean.... we know, but.

No new areas just yet, it remains you guys and yours here for now. Well, and Angel, but again - you don't exactly see her unless you want to. It's more than a little lonely... maybe someone ought to shake things up.



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to Week 2, your first case week! Remember to turn in regains here, your AC for last week here, and if you like, come visit Angel's office hours here!

movie night

[thieviusraccoonus]

[Hey, if someone's putting on a fun little event, then who is Sly to refuse an invitation?

He turns up early, settling in somewhere off to the side with his own drink and snacks. It's a nice evening for something lighthearted, right?

Aladdin is a fun time, fun enough that Sly cracks a grin at the Genie's antics.]

Wish I found a genie bottle when I was back in ancient Arabia.

[Then it gets around to Tarzan and suddenly he's a lot quieter, finding something far more interesting in his drink than that opening scene. Ahaha... a predator killing parents. Wonderful.]

[emberserker]

What, now you have time travel, too?

[thieviusraccoonus]

Yup. A good friend of mine put it together.

[Because all series try time travel eventually.]

Traveled back in time for... family business.

[emberserker]

I don't know if there's anything sensible about other people's worlds at this rate.

[thieviusraccoonus]

Hey, you're all the furless ones.

[emberserker]

You'd think you would be used to this by now.

[says the biggest hypocrite on the station]

[thieviusraccoonus]

I'll be used to it eventually. Still feels like almost everyone's a little too naked around here.

[Says the raccoon man not wearing pants.]

Aladdin

[drladysounds]

I dunno, wishes are tricky. This genie is fun, but if you ask wishes to the wrong person they use it to their advantage.

[She speaks from experience -- but that was because she asked a wish to a fairy. That's a terrible move]

[thieviusraccoonus]

I think I'd make a pretty good master. [Hopefully.] I've proved myself way more times than this Aladdin guy.

[drladysounds]

Would you set your genie free instead of asking for a zillion wishes?

[It'd be so hard to resist the temptation]

[thieviusraccoonus]

Probably. [Though, it takes him a half second to think it over.] I'm not some evil vizier.

Besides, what's the point of just wishing for everything you want? There's no fun in that.

[drladysounds]

[Shelley doesn't admit she'd have a muuuuuch harder time letting the genie go]

Sometimes wishes are just ever so convenient -- but you're right. It's better to achieve everything with your own two hands!

[thieviusraccoonus]

Sure is. I've been training my whole life for what I do. All that hard work is supposed to pay off in the end.

Aladdin

[bolderfell]

My first wish would be for him to stop talking so damn much.

[thieviusraccoonus]

Hey, cooped up in a lamp for that long? I'd probably chat someone's ear off, too, master or not.

[bolderfell]

...

[Translated, this face means, "You kind of do anyway."]

[thieviusraccoonus]

...I'll take that look as agreeing?

[No, Sly, don't.]

[bolderfell]

I have a feeling you'd find a way to talk through the lamp. Regardless of an audience.

[thieviusraccoonus]

Are you saying I like the sound of my own voice?

Well... [shrug?] I mean, you're right.

aladdin

[philoxenia]

[ ... huh. ]

You've been in ancient Arabia?

[ Color her very interested! ]

[thieviusraccoonus]

Sure have. I've been all over the place before this. [He loves an opportunity to boast, but in a humble way.]

Went back and met my ancestor, Salim Al-Kupar. He was a member of the Forty Thieves.

[He was also old, and tired, and hungry.]

[philoxenia]

As in-- As in Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves?

[ that's so cool ]

[thieviusraccoonus]

Yeah!

[Someone's... interested??? wow.]

Of course, they were almost retired by the time we got there, but it was still nice.

[Still nice!! But god he had a busy time.]

Legend has it he had the stealth of all fort thieves.

[philoxenia]

[ hell yeah she is ]

Well, you don't meet legends every day... What was it like, meeting him?

[thieviusraccoonus]

Have you ever read about a person and hoped they lived up to their legend, and it turns out they do? It was like that.

Kind of a shame I caught him when he was retiring though.
