So it looks like, as is per the usual for the area, that things have gone, to put it simply as possible, right tits up.

Again.

I know a few of ye are new here, and haven't gotten to experience all the joys of whatever the devil happens when the angry, ancient, crazed deities of this dimension get bored of sittin' around playin' the biscuit game and decide to take a leak in all of our collective wheaties.

Tis what's happenin' now, I assume.

Nae, don't bother questionin' it, it'll all be over in less than a fortnight.

In any case, this upturnin' of the tits is a semi regular, near bi-weekly event, so I figure if it's going to be runnin' on a somewhat predictable schedule, I'll make the events as tolerable as I can.

So there's a new special at the shop what for when tittage aims upwards and it's the "Oh Bugger Me, Everythin's Gone Tit's Up Again" special, or, for those of ye with shit to do and not enough time to speak it, "Three an' one free."

Aye, it's a promotional for a pub, I don't know what ye all expected.

Come in and spend three red bills or more in the shop, and ye get one free pint of Guinness.

If ye want more than a pint, well you'll be happy to know Velvet Lust down in Genessia sells 'em by the flagon.

You're welcome.

Nae, just one pint a person here because I've the inkling that mixin' large amounts of alcohol with explosives, focus daggers and enchanted crystals might cause further raisin' of the tits here. Don't ye feckin' get plastered in me shop.

Cloak and Dagger in Everglade, because ye can't stop what's already happened so ye may as well have a drink and wait it out.

so I've been asked if there's going to be cake

[ Tannu that has nothing to do with current shenanigans, sale or otherwise-- ]

you like chocolate? everyone likes chocolate

Re: text

[feckinboomstick]

That hasn't got a thing to do with the announcement, Tannusen.

And I like coffee or rum cake.

[Neither of which are what people have at weddings you ass]

[black_black_heart]

of course you do

but what if I make it

look i remember what code is

[feckinboomstick]

What, make coffee cake? I'd eat cake foundation if you made it, Tannusen, you know that.

:o

[black_black_heart]

chocolate

aw that almost sounds like you like me

[ TANNU YOU'RE ENGAGED. ]

[feckinboomstick]

Tannusen, we're engaged.

Yes of course I'll eat chocolate, I'm not that boring.

Who even asked about cake?

[black_black_heart]

darling I don't think I've ever called you boring

picky, on the other hand

fussy

maaaaybe

[ He even almost understood all of that, despite the accent, too. ]

I think you might want to run a promotion after it's all over, as well.

Maybe a ... "Finally Things Are Slightly Less Ass Over Tits" ...

... And, since I'd imagine the people affected will need plenty of liquor even without any discount, you'd charge less for the food at your cantina instead.

Re: [ Video ]

[feckinboomstick]

Look, if I did that, then I'd have to hand out free booze everyday, and if I did that, I may as well rebrand to the Cloak and Dagger Get Sloshed Here House.

[bright_imperius]

[ Laughs, because, he's so right. ]

That's why I suggested a discount on your snacks - with the chaos that happens around here, I'm guessing you really don't need to encourage much more business.

And, when they eat more, they'll buy more drinks, that's how these things usually go.

Re: [ Video ]

[feckinboomstick]

Really don't got too much by way of snacks here, if I am to be honest.

There was that one time. With the unexpected crisp shipment.

[TANNUSEN.]

T'was merely an attempt to shift stock that time though, had to clear out space in me broom closet.

[bright_imperius]

What kind of cantina doesn't have snacks?

[ He's more curious than anything else. Takumi tries to recall to see this user's transmissions on the datapad before. He keeps coming up with a blank. ]

Re: [ Video ]

[feckinboomstick]

Mate, this ain't a cantina, it's a shop for magical items. Focuses, crystals, herbs and supplies what to grow 'em, charms and wards and runes and spell books, filled and empty alike.

I'm givin' away Guinness cos my fiance runs a pub.

And I like Guinness.

[corruptedsave]

But what about customers who aren't old enough to drink?

[Because the term "focus daggers" caught their attention.]

Re: video

[feckinboomstick]

Well then ye ain't old enough to buy anythin' here that ain't a book or a plant I'm afraid.

[He's already turned down a kid trying to buy explosive runes, Chara. Don't get him wrong, you're one of the least annoying people he knows here... so far!

But kids don't get boom booms and stab stabs]

video

[corruptedsave]

But the "adults" here are? You sure about that, gramps?

[But they already have a stab stab! In fact they did some stabbing a month or so ago, even got it on the network.

Also they're a lot smarter then any of the adults that would drink in this place.]

Re: video

[feckinboomstick]

Legally, aye. There's no rules about havin' to take an I.Q test before you buy a magical bomb.

[corruptedsave]

Good thing I wouldn't be buying something like that, if I wanted something that explodes I'd just buy fireworks.

[feckinboomstick]

Oh good, then ye'll have no argument just comin' in and buyin' some first level spell books and a few magic rocks.

[Two things may seem a little bit off about Dorian as he initializes the feed. 1) Nothing around him seems familiar (and he hasn't been to work) and there's a hardness to his words and his gaze that wasn't there before.]

Oh, come now. All the greatest magical discoveries were stumbled upon in often-inebriated times by geniuses willing to try what others would not.

Re: video;

[feckinboomstick]

[Where have you been you didn't even call in. There's a brief, almost unnoticeable moment where the older man scans the image in the phone. It took half a moment to connect the dots.

Not you too, Dorian. He'd hoped this weirdness wouldn't settle upon him somehow, it was hard enough when it directly hit him]

Willin' to bet most of 'em drank alone and not surrounded by screamin' pillocks and explosives.

Ye been feelin' alright there, Dorian? Haven't seen ye about in a bit, I was gettin' worried ye'd worked yourself to death.

video;

[tevinteraltus]

Oh, yes. I'm quite alright. [But the smile seems less genuine than usual, and a lot less...familiar? Dorian isn't sure who he is, but with someone acting so much like they know him, he feels it prudent to play along.

You get more information that way.]

I've been rather busy, is all.

[clevermind]

I don't think it's so bad.

[Even if things are a little odd as of late.]

Re: Video

[feckinboomstick]

I mean it could be worse.

Could be dead.

[clevermind]

That is true. I'm glad that you aren't.
