Time Stops For Fire(Altered Tundra and Hero)

Curse that Shion for making this spear nigh impossible to grab without there being some serious consequences. First, she had to make sure the first thing anyone who touched it without her permission experienced the violating essence of foreign mist pour into their body, causing any and all actions they were going to do or had thought about doing left their minds and only the screeching agony remained. And, after it was said and done and all fo the mist was finally out of their body, an extension of that wrapped around Savayna's body, bloomed flower petals, and induced a strong sap spell that was only akin to the Elder Wyrm of Gilmore. Of course, she was without the additional status infections, but the sap was real.

Really annoying, that is. Savayna was clearly at the end of her ropes. She lost the use of her voice, her access to her mist was fading(as noted by Mateus being forced back into his domain). It wasn't long until her basic senses were gone. Smell, sight, hearing--well fuck, that just went.

Meanwhile, Jaakuna just looked at Savayna, seeing how helpless she was and how Nadeline mentioned something about how what she was going to do Savayna was going to cause her more suffering. And, apparently, there was something about it being inhumane. He couldn't fathom what she was hinting at, but if she didn't do it fast, as she said, Savayna would be gone. "Just do it and don't even worry about hurting her. She's fine." Jaakuna gestured to how she had retained her color.

Annd that was gone too.

Time Stops For Fire(Altered Tundra and Hero)

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy…

In between the winces of pain she made from the outside mist that had made its way inside her, she watched Nadeline warily. Whatever the princess was going to do, regardless how well versed she was in the healing arts, it didn’t take a magitech engineer to know that the process would be incredibly painful. Just the fact that several glyphs had appeared around the two and had involved Nadeline use her rapier to stabilize those very glyphs so that, as Savayna surmised, unlocked the seals that had appeared on Savayna’s arms and legs and practically her entire body.

At first, it wasn’t so bad. She felt the mist starting to leak out of her body one smokey drop by drop. After a few, long moments had passed, Savayna was beginning to think that it was going to be okay. Perhaps it would go without a hitch and, not only would she be free of this continuous uncomfortableness, there was a high chance that they could walk away with one of the rarest weapons in all of Ivalice: the Zodiac Spear, that is said to house power from all thirteen espers.

“Wow, she’s actually doing it.” Jaakuna seemed surprised, which Savayna didn’t find comforting at all.

“Just--just shut up, will ya!” Savayna was trying to focus on something other than Jaakuna’s idiotic word choices. She wanted to focus more on how painful this whole procedure was getting. “Will you hurry up already?” Savayna snapped at Nadeline, urging her to make haste.

The pain was unmeasurable and every time Nadeline had gone forth with another moment of drawing out the mist from her body, much like slicing open the skin raw, she felt every drop of it as if someone was guiding a jagged blade across her skin.

And then, just as Nadeline seemed to go in once more and the look on her face gave Savayna a bad feeling, a series of events had occurred to where a pulse of magick sent Nadeline and JAakuna back a few paces and the glyphs that had surrounded Savayna dispersed. And as the magick had faded, the dark red and purple mist from the Zodiac Spear had surrounded Savayna. For a moment, she watched it curiously, then as it started to swirl around her, she tried to move. However, due to the effects, the mist had on her, she was still a bit slowed. Then, right out of nowhere, the mist had wrapped around her, constricting her moment, and took the physical form of what looked like vines from blue roses. Much like Shion’s trademark move to have the blue rose in her hair glow before she did something with her mist, they emitted the same glow. It only took Savayna one moment to realize what they were doing.

It was Sap.

“Seriously?!”

Jaakuna had kept his eyes on Savayna, but for a moment, he looked at Nadeline, “so, what do we do now?”

“I don’t care what you do -just hurry. This sap effect is strong. I can feel my mist being drained. At this rate, I’ll only have--” Savayna was cut off mid-sentence, her voice disappearing.

“She’s right. It’s strong, so we have to do something.” Jaakuna said, looking to Nadeline, “Ultima, stop being a lazy bitch and help your chosen one for once.”

And though Jaakuna probably shouldn’t have said that(Belias’ words, not his), it was the only thing he could think of that would get her attention. For Savayna’s sake, he hoped it wasn’t too late.

Crooked Young - An Altered Lies Production

"Like you wouldn't believe," Eli said, confirming her suspicions.

Heather didn't suit her at all. Heather was the name of a dainty, little princess. Heather was the name someone gave their child if they wanted them to be the perfect doll in front of the cameras. It was what the famous actress, Heather Locklear was named and it was the name that all of those who had come after her had been given as a way to carry on that legacy. no, Eli didn't agree that it fit her, though, despite what he felt about that name, something that was obvious to him was that she wore that name with pride and made it into something that no one could associate with what it had actually sounded like.

Of course, it wasn't as though he couldn't relate to that. Being named Elias was a joke. He was a Greek-Italian-American, sure, but did he act like one? Not a chance. He looked like one, sure, but nowhere in his distant personality did it say that he was like his brother or father or mother. If anything, the one he had the most in common with was Ava and his Uncle Gabriel. Both exhibited the same qualities that he did. Ava hated how the Mossos' were often presented as the perfect family when the rumors of mob-related activity was always brought up in police investigations not only by the local police by the FBI. They had tried to bring up a RICO case, but nothing came of it. And, of course, his mother's brother, Gabriel DiVale, had been blacklisted from seeing any of his nieces and nephews because of how blatant he had been in his illegal activities. Apparently, his mother felt it would be bad for Mossos' image to the public.

What a load of crap, that was.

"Here is my life tale: Black sheep son of Adrianna DiVale and Baltazar Mossos. Not as disrespectful as Ava but nowhere near the prime example that Alexandros sets. they accept Ava for who she is. She might be a bitch sometimes and frequently causes them the most grief, but they accept her for her. Alexandros is the favorite." Elijah felt himself just ranting. "He screws up time and time again, but no matter what happens, he gets their vote of confidence." He continued, "he doesn't know the concept of a condom nor does he understand how to fuck in moderation. DEspite that, our mother had a talk with Audrey on his behalf and I bet they're upstairs fucking as if nothing's happened." Before he realized it, Elijah had been speaking way too loud for it to be just a passing rant. It was also that he looked at Heather, who seemed to be unknowingly the recipient of what sounded like an angry rant. "Whatever. Fuck them, that's what I say." Eli let out a low snarl at the thought of his family, taking in a puff of smoke before tossing his cig onto the ground and destroying the evidence with the tip of his foot.

Because he got so worked up, Eli now felt like he was craving another smoke. Or maybe he was in the mood for something just a little stronger. Part of him would feel bad for getting high at someone else’s party. He might’ve been a lot of things, but he didn’t want to bring attention to himnself, which of course had him reconsidering what he was about to do. That was, of course, until he heard the Human Screech yell once more, this time calling all partygoers that the feast was almost ready. That was all of the motivation that he needed. Plus, if he was going to make it through the evening with Heather’s sister running her mouth, he would need a little extra help.

“Heather, as much as I love cigarettes, they don’t take the edge off like they usually do. And I’m betting that, given how loud that sister of yours is, you might need something a little extra,” Eli said, reaching into his pocket. He pulled out a small vial that had some white powder in it. “What do you say? Care to make this evening a bit more exciting?” He asked her, lightly waving the vial in the air as way to tempt her.

What Roleplay section do you mostly post in?

Though I am currently apart of both group and 1x1 RPs, I find myself not only preferring the latter, I also post the most in the 1x1 RP section. Simply being that it's easier for me and the RPs that I'm in that are active just happen to be 1x1 roleplays. Plus, it's much easier having to read one post than it is 5+ just for one character action. And generally, 1x1 partners are understanding of how hectic one's non-roleplaying life could get.

Welcome back to the Guild! Things haven't really changed, though we do got some new features that I'm sure you'll love. :D

Iquenos: In Nomine Domini

@Inkarnate Do I look like moneybags to you? no, I am a poor white man who can't afford to shell out 100 bucks for Microsoft Office. Plus, Gdocs is so much better than Microsoft Word/Office since it autosaves. So take that, Bill Gates. :P
