Happened after the revolt, when we were tidying things up.

Thanks, whoever played with us! Twas fun.

------------------------

Stewartsville General Store.
Superimposed over this location, an ethereal forest reaches up to the sky. Butch
Duncan stands behind the counter with a disarming smile on his lips. A painting
of shade beneath cherry trees is proudly exhibited on a nearby wall. Hovering
eerily here is a frost hag, emanating a pale silver glow. A wiccan broom floats
here, vibrating with energy. Nessa is here. She wields a stag and moon tower
shield in her left hand and a mystic cudgel in her right. Hierophant Anarias
Sa'Lumiere is here. He wields a golden sickle in his left hand. Moon Wisdom
Zenji, Eye of the Crone is here. He wields an athame dagger in his left hand and
a shield of silvered vines in his right. You see a sign here instructing you
that WARES is the command to see what is for sale.
You see a single exit leading west (open door).

Rubbing her hands together, Nessa grins with evil satisfaction.

Nessa Falassion says, "New guard for me to influence."

A ray of sunlight hits Nessa and infuses her in a nimbus of bright light.

lots of reasons to come visit."

You wink conspiratorially at Butch Duncan.
Butch Duncan glares angrily at you.

each other.

you."

Your eyes sparkle with amusement at Anarias.

Butch Duncan says, "I'm lonely... and desperate..."

The painting here lights up with a deep purple glow, out of which steps Tatine,
riding a wiccan broom, splattered in paint.

"Eep!", Tatine screams in fright.

Nessa Falassion says, "And announcing it loudly."

You say to Anarias, "You know Shorlen, do you think I'm not used to
forwardness?"

You raise your hand in greeting to Tatine and say "Hi!"

Zenji tickles Tatine mercilessly!

Hierophant Anarias Sa'Lumiere says to Butch Duncan, "Well that attitude isn't
going to solve your problems."

Anarias's eyes sparkle with amusement at you.

You look about yourself, rubbing your chin thoughtfully.

Hierophant Anarias Sa'Lumiere says to Butch Duncan, "Be confident and bold and
the women will respect you!"

otherwise be."

You give Butch Duncan the once-over, eyeing him suspiciously.

Nessa Falassion says, "When has that ever stopped people..."

"Eep!", Tatine screams in fright.

Tatine hops about the area madly.

vegetables better than in Estelbar."

all the vegetables you want..."

You say to Butch Duncan, "There, you see? That's how you'll win her heart ...
with foodstuffs!"

enough vegetables."

Butch Duncan says, "Do you like carrots?"

big carrots."

The corners of your mouth turn up as you grin mischievously.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "They're a bit scary."

Tatine hops about the area madly.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Do you like alligators?"

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I'm trying to make an
alligator recipe."

Butch Duncan creases his brow in a frown.

You smile and say, "Well, we have a novice in need of some guidance, so I should
be going."

Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone says, "Carrots.. well I've got a Seeker to
teach."

Zenji waves goodbye.

You ponder the situation.

"Eep!", Tatine screams in fright.

Tatine grabs protectively at herself.

Butch Duncan says, "Well, Tatine will stay with me."

Zenji reaches out and touches a painting of shade beneath cherry trees, and a
deep purple glow surrounds it. Zenji's body blurs into swirling colours, which
begin to be sucked into the painting.

You whisper soothing words to Tatine.

The painting here lights up with a deep purple glow, out of which steps Zenji
splattered in paint.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I only came to buy some
ingredients!"

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Why don't you ask
Countess Cecelia? She goes with everyone."

Butch Duncan says, "Perhaps you'd like some eggs?"

Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone says to Tatine, "He's extremely handsome and
muscled.."

Zenji nudges Tatine suggestively.

Butch Duncan says, "Countess Cecelia?"

Tatine nods her head emphatically.

Butch Duncan says, "Do you think she'd be interested in someone like me?"

Butch Duncan flexes his muscles in an impressive display of strength.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "She's interested in
everyone! Especially if they solve her murder."

You say, "I'm sure with the troubles she has, she'd appreciate someone loyal, as
well."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "And she's spanking
rich!"

Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone says, "I could ask if you wish."

Butch Duncan says, "Spanking, eh?"

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I'm not rich."

Butch's eyes light up with glee.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "And my eggs aren't for
sale I'm afraid."

Butch Duncan utters a deep, rumbling laugh.

Butch Duncan says, "Mine are."

Butch Duncan says, "10 gold pieces, an egg."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "But Countess Cecelia,
she's a top woman!"

The corners of your mouth turn up as you grin mischievously.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I think I'm stuffed with
eggs for the moment."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Oh, I need grain but I
think you're sold out."

Butch Duncan gives a pained sigh.

You say to Butch Duncan, "You could always see if Cecelia would be interested in
your carrots, too."

You nod your head sagely.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Yojimbo in Estelbar
likes carrots too!"

Butch Duncan says, "She has a standing order for my carrots."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "He's always giving them
out."

You look about yourself, rubbing your chin thoughtfully.

"Hmph!" Tatine snorts.

You give Butch Duncan the once-over, eyeing him suspiciously.

Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone says, "I know of nice dwarven Tailor..."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Drulda!"

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I know this aslaran
jeweller in Shanthmark but I can't remember what she's called but she likes a
good time."

You say to Tatine, "Ujana?"

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Well she always goes on
about a good time when I'm trying to get her to join Serenwilde anyway."

Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone says, "Sounds exotic."

Zenji nudges Butch Duncan suggestively.
Butch Duncan glares angrily at Zenji.

Butch Duncan licks his lips.

Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone says to you, "Can you make sketches of Butch
that we could show off to nice lovely women around the basin?"

Butch Duncan says, "A good idea."

You ponder Butch Duncan thoughtfully, looking him up and down.
Butch Duncan rolls his eyes.

Butch Duncan stands in profile, flexing his biceps.

Tatine hops about the area madly.

You pulp the wood into a paste and create a sheet of paper, then carefully cut
it into 5 blank sketch sheets.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I can make cakes that
make people fall in love with you."

Breaking a piece of coal into small chunks, you pick out a plump shard and
ponder Butch Duncan for a moment. With an image in your mind you deftly sketch
his features upon a thin sketch sheet, preserving them for future use.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "But the problem is that
they'll fall in love with me and then I'll have to hide."

You wave a sketch of butch about energetically.

Butch Duncan flexes his muscles in an impressive display of strength.

Butch Duncan says, "Most women go weak at the knees at the thought of me."

Butch Duncan says, "But not you two."

You grin mischievously at Butch Duncan.
Butch Duncan licks his lips.

Butch Duncan says, "Usually, there's a queue."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I've got varicose
veins."

You laugh melodically at Tatine.

Butch Duncan says, "Maybe you don't care for men, eh?"

You say, "And I'm turning sixty-two tomorrow."

You sway back and forth.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I'm 67!"

"Nice!", you say to Tatine with an enthusiastic thumbs up.

Butch Duncan says, "I like... experienced women."

"Ahah!" you exclaim triumphantly.

Butch Duncan winks knowingly.

You say, "I know the perfect one, then!"

You say, "Wiciwen!"

"Erk!" Zenji says with a grimace.

Tatine sniggers evilly.

Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone says, "Well.. we could ask I guess."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "She's into all this cool
stuff!"

Butch Duncan says, "The Dowager of Rockholm?"

You nod your head at Butch Duncan.
Butch Duncan puts his hands on his hips and goes "Hmmm!"

You say, "She's certainly experienced!"

Zenji gulps nervously.

Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone says, "She scares me a little."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "She's awful good with
fortune telling and all those balls."

Butch Duncan says, "She was old when my granny was the greatest beauty in the
village."

Zenji rolls on the floor, laughing.

Butch Duncan says, "Hey, I'm glad to know she's good with balls."

You give a trillingly melodic laugh.

Butch Duncan says, "But I don't date the undead."

"Eep!", Tatine screams in fright.

You blink.

You say, "Wiciwen's not undead."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "She's wrinkly!"

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "And short."

Butch Duncan snickers softly to himself.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "So I guess she's one
wrinkle."

Butch Duncan says, "Short has its advantages."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I think my head is
swimming."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator covers her eyes and ears.

You wrap a comforting arm around Tatine.

Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone develops a small twitch in his left eye
which rubs with a hand to get rid of.

You give a sketch of butch to Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone.

You say to Zenji, "There, why don't you take that to Wiciwen?"

The corners of your mouth turn up as you grin mischievously.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Try Ujana too!"

You nod your head emphatically.

You say, "Furrikin might be affectionate, too ... and they're short."

Tatine nods her head emphatically.

Moon Wisdom Zenji, Eye of the Crone says, "Wiciwen... really? how about I try a
few others first?"

You say, "Delatini, Melbini, Hopliti, Deb, Teenie ..."

Butch Duncan says, "Don't get me wrong... I like a good strapping Elfen lass as
much as the next man."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Cecelia too."

You say, "Ah yes, don't forget Cecelia."

You nod your head sagely.

Zenji gives the world a smart salute.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Have you tried the
Chateau d'Amour?"

Butch Duncan says, "Pah. The Chateau d'Amour is for gentry."

Tatine raises an athame dagger up and makes a circle in the air. A radiant torc
forms from the ether and settles around her neck.

Butch Duncan says, "And if I love and leave the Countess, she'll put me in the
stocks."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Oh."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I didn't know she was
into that sort of thing."

Butch Duncan says, "I like a nice serving wench."

You say, "A valid concern, if you plan to love and leave her."

You give Butch Duncan the once-over, eyeing him suspiciously.
Butch Duncan glares angrily at you.

Butch Duncan says, "Young, innocent, impressionable."

You ask, "And you also like experienced, short women?"

The corners of your mouth turn up as you grin mischievously.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Albion?"

You say, "I don't think she's short."

Butch Duncan says, "I like all women."

Comprehension flashes across your face.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "She's got a cauldron."

You say, "Well, until you find some other company, this one will stay with you."

You pat a frost hag in a friendly manner.

A frost hag says, "The enemies of Serenwilde shall know fear."

"Eep!", Tatine screams in fright.

You grin mischievously at a frost hag.

A frost hag exhales loudly, causing a plume of cold air to flow out.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "There's lots of elfen
ladies in the commune proper."

Tatine hops about the area madly.

You nod your head in agreement.

Butch Duncan shrugs disinterestedly.

You search carefully about your surroundings, but alas can find nothing on which
to feed.

You say, "I've forgotten to eat and rest in awhile again."

You peer about yourself unscrupulously.

You say, "I'd better go do that before I start starving."

A wry smile spreads across your face.

You give Tatine a compassionate hug.

You wave goodbye at Butch Duncan.
Butch Duncan glares angrily at you.

--------------------

Then, from Zenji's point of view:



The Crystal Ballroom.
Superimposed over this location, an ethereal forest reaches up to the sky.
Looking absolutely gorgeous, Countess Cecelia stands here calm and collected.
You see exits leading east (open door), south, and west.

You greet Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart with a sincere smile.
Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "We are quite dismayed that Albert
Dimple, the butler tried to murder us. Perhaps I will forgive such malfeasance
in the future but not today."

You say to Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart, "Greetings Lady Cecelia, might I
have a moment of your time to discuss something with you?"

-look sketch
Butch Duncan is an extremely handsome man in his twenties, about six feet tall
and slim though well muscled. His red cotton shirt is open to his bellybutton
and his skin is a creamy caramel colour, revealing a smooth chest upon which
rests a thick gold necklace. His blond hair is straight and shoulder length. His
tight leather pants are well made and held up with a shiny black belt. When
Butch smiles, he reveals a disarming smile with perfect white teeth and dimples.

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "Yes, Moon Wisdom?"

You say, "Well.."

You blush furiously.

You say, "How do I put this.. I believe that you are currently unattached?"

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "I apologise, will you repeat that?"

You say, "You are not currently courting someone?"

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "My... love life, will remain my
concern, Master Zenji."

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "I have no wish to see the most intimate
secrets unveiled on the street corners."

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "And so, I am discrete."

You say to Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart, "Er, as it should Lady .. I.. well
might I suggest Butch Duncan?"

You display a sketch of butch for all in the room to see.

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "The salesman?"

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart curls her lip in disgust.

You say, "Indeed, he's quite loyal, I don't believe he would make assassination
attempts on your person."

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "If we remember correctly, he is the
blaggard who cuts swathes through our serving girls."

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "A chambermaid was compelled to find...
other employment after she became pregnant by him."

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "I am sure you would agree that he is
hardly fit for our company, let alone our love."

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "Good day, Wisdom."

You say, "Oh dear.. well, I forget myself in being so forthcoming to you. I
shall inform him you are not interested, thank you for your time Lady Cecelia."

You bow respectfully to Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart.
Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart imperiously inclines her head.

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart says, "I suppose I should thank you as well."

Lady Cecelia, Countess of Stewart turns her back on Zenji, pointedly.


You lift a hand languidly and send a moonbeam to Tatine.

You gently rise into the air and dance along a moonbeam to Tatine.
Stewartsville General Store.
Superimposed over this location, an ethereal forest reaches up to the sky. Butch
Duncan stands behind the counter with a disarming smile on his lips. A painting
of shade beneath cherry trees is proudly exhibited on a nearby wall. Hovering
eerily here is a frost hag, emanating a pale silver glow. A wiccan broom floats
here, vibrating with energy. Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator is
here, shrouded. She wields a shield bordered in moonstones in her left hand and
an athame dagger in her right. You see a sign here instructing you that WARES is
the command to see what is for sale.
You see a single exit leading west (open door).

Tatine hops about the area madly.

Tatine raises her hand in greeting to you and says "Hello!"

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Did you show them the
picture?"

You say to Butch Duncan, "Ah, well I don't believe you'd like Lady Cecelia."

Butch Duncan snickers softly to himself.

Butch Duncan says, "But would she like me."

Butch Duncan flexes his muscles in an impressive display of strength.

You say to Butch Duncan, "She's a bit caught up with herself and her position,
I'll be moving on to someone a bit more homey."

Butch Duncan says, "Not many women resist my charms."

Tatine hops about the area madly.

Butch Duncan says, "She and Prescott.. you mark my words."

Butch Duncan says, "I've heard the rumours."

Butch Duncan winks knowingly.

Comprehension flashes across your face.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I heard she actually
likes it when he tries to kill her."

You open your eyes wide with shock at Tatine.

A flash of worry crosses Butch Duncan's features.

Butch Duncan says, "I wouldn't know anything about that."

Butch Duncan says, "Nothing at all."

Butch Duncan shuffles uneasily.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Well you hear all these
things and read all those notes on perfumed parchment that you find and you
don't know what the upper classes all do so I don't know!"

Tatine hops about the area madly.

Butch Duncan scoffs arrogantly.

Butch Duncan says, "Perfumed parchment."

Butch Duncan says, "Typical."

Butch Duncan says, "You don't need that to get a girl."

You say to Butch Duncan, "Ah, it'll be alright, hrm, let me see, alluring
Aslarans or feisty dwarven women next?"

Butch Duncan says, "Just my good looks."

Butch Duncan licks his lips.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Do you like thinking
women?"

Butch Duncan sniggers evilly.

Butch Duncan says, "Thinking? What do they need thinking for."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "There's a lucidian
astrologer in the observatory near Hallifax and she's a very hard worker."

You look about yourself, rubbing your chin thoughtfully.

Butch Duncan says, "Nice toned skin, good looks, athletic."

Butch Duncan shrugs helplessly.

Butch Duncan says, "Pah."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Her skin's so shiny you
could slip on it like a polished floor."

Butch Duncan says, "I'll find a new one soon enough."

Butch Duncan says, "This village is too small."

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "Maybe we could take you
visiting other villages?"

Butch Duncan says, "Maybe! But first I need to take stock."

Butch Duncan says, "And do my chores."

You nod your head emphatically.

You ponder a sketch of butch thoughtfully, looking it up and down.

Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator says, "I think Ujana would like
you a lot!"

Smoking a pipe, a village man walks in from the west.

A village man says, "BUTCH."

A village man says, "Where's my daughter."

You cough softly.

A village man grabs Butch Duncan by the neck with both hands.

You say, "Oh dear."

Butch Duncan coughs and splutters.

A village man walks off to the west, trailing a stream of smoke from his pipe.

You whisper quietly in Tatine's ear.

You tell Moonshine Sailor Tatine Shelley, Discombobulator, "Maybe we shouldn't
be encouraging him, he seems to do fine on his own."

Butch Duncan coughs softly.

"Eep!", Tatine screams in fright.

Butch Duncan says, "A.. it seems I have some explainin to do."

Butch Duncan walks off to the west.

"Ummmm," Tatine says uncertainly.

You ponder the situation.

Isn't Deb a guy?

With some furrikin, it's ... hard to tell? At least I know Sandy's a guy! And Rickatee, Tomtom, and Yojimbo.

They are?

editL Actually, that should read Sandy is? because I mixed what Tsu said.

Deb's a girl, but she's taken - married to Chik. Teenie's taken too *nudge Nejii*

EDIT: Sandy's a guy.

That is the coolest thing ever! I especially loved how at the end the village man came in and accosted Butch for taking advantage of his daughter. Really cool!

Some furrikin change gender!

what do you know, you are old and like flowers

Wait, who's accusing me of this? I don't like flowers at all! (except maybe those velvety violet ones, I forget what they're called, possibly violets)

fixed

"Iris"?

Flowers that you can see part of in my signature banner thing are periwinkles. So pretty!

This is a violet (have to copy/paste the addy actually, to get it to work).

This and these are periwinkle.


If you say you prefer the look of an iris to one of those, I'll ... hmm, become a Talnara just to disown Nejii, then return to being a Mes'ard.
