BiT live

Who: Cosmo
Where: Lobby
When: 436

[Cosmo is rocking a look. Minus the plague mask, it's just his normal mask. He's got a set of fruity drinks in front of him, and he's leaning back with a drink in hand.]

"Risk" and "Reward".

Half of these drinks are non-alcoholic, most of the rest are quite potently alcoholic, a few are drugged.

The risk is obvious, the reward is engaging in the live. Or perhaps in avoiding the traps.

The drugs are one of three kinds--a potent psychedelic, a numbing agent, and something to get you a little hot under the collar. Do take it elsewhere if you get that last one.

[He sips his drink.]

Of course some say the best way to win at gambling is not to play, but where's the fun in that?

((OOC: tag any toplevels with the aphro as nsfw and you can have like, multiple if you want. I'll toplevel Lahabrea to talk to but you can also just engage with drugs.))

Perhaps.

[rainshaveceased]

Even when Fandaniel inevitably will not?

[temperedinpride]

And what would you propose?

[rainshaveceased]

Of course, I believe we should do our best to act civil. It will just not be easy.

[temperedinpride]

Hm. I am most interested in simply observing him. He knows all our schemes and methods. Whereas we are at a disadvantage in not knowing his methodology.

[rainshaveceased]

Surely knowing his intentions would be even more important?

[temperedinpride]

I know them.

[rainshaveceased]

...And?

[hey why the fuck have i not been informed???]

[temperedinpride]

Perhaps best discussed later.

[rainshaveceased]

Lahabrea. Tell me.

[temperedinpride]

Elsewhere then.

[rainshaveceased]

Fine.

[gets up. let's go now?]

[temperedinpride]

So very impatient.

[He snags a couple drinks and gets up as well to follow.]

[rainshaveceased]

I am when it comes to important information.

[and because he's impatient he's taking the elevator to fin since it's a shorter ride]

[temperedinpride]

[He'll press a drink into Elidibus's ban when they get there and sip his own as he follows.]

I wonder if you are just restless.

[rainshaveceased]

[looks at the drink like what the fuck am i supposed to do with this as he's opening the door]

Can you blame me if I am?

[and leading the way to his room! it is a standard fin bedroom, the only unique features are a statuette of zodiark on the desk and a fuzzy blanket on the bed]

[temperedinpride]

[We need you a better room.

He sits at the desk and just chugs his drink.]

Not at all.

[rainshaveceased]

So. Fandaniel?

[temperedinpride]

[He examines his own hand with keen interest.]

He intends to annihilate all life on the star without exception, it seems.

[rainshaveceased]

I see.

[actually he's going to go ahead and drink as well]

[temperedinpride]

[He looks at his glass but it appears to be empty? Hm.

He leans back in the chair, taking off his mask and setting that and the drink on the desk]





I remember Hermes as a gentle soul. It is a shame how broken this shard is.

[rainshaveceased]

[sitting down on his bed, sipping more]

He was quite possibly the kindest of us, once. And now...

[sigh]

It cannot be helped, though.

[temperedinpride]

These twisted souls... I weep for them, yet...

[rainshaveceased]

It's horrible. How much they suffer, how far they fall.

But we will save them.

[temperedinpride]

[He sighs.]

He can have his annihilation for all I care. In his timeline.

My worry is that should he learn of our goals he won't be content with the end of that star alone.
