Cyne

Location: Tower
Interacting with:Robed man

The bear stared on as Thomas impressively disrobed his nether region in an instant without using his hands. The young magician didn't seem to either know or cared that his braies were exposed for all to see, which could be considered admirable to a point. After a few seconds she looked back towards the robed man so as not to appear that she was trying to check out Thomas' "goods" so to speak. Besides, it seemed Satilla had that particular malfunction under control.

Ignoring the robed man's demands that everyone leave the ill man alone, the bear walked to the head of the bead, pushing aside the obstacle by virtue of the simple difference in sheer mass. Gingerly so as not to accidentally harm the person underneath, she put her paw down on the covers and pulled it back to find that the man's friend was actually just another one of the undead, still alive, but nude rather than encased in armor. If she had had a human face rather than the snout of a bear, a look of disgust would take over her features; however, a bear roar would have to suffice. Hopefully that would signal to those not in the room or that couldn't see the undead face that there was something not good going on.

The Watch slept and then the Watch rose from his slumber. It was 6am on the dot. He knew this in the way one knew how many fingers were on their hand, yet he took a moment to look at the clock he had mounted up on the wall. He didn't actually bother to read it, the thing was completely inert, solidified at 9:48 indefinitely; it was left up simply for the purpose of keeping up appearances. A watch need not external forces to know when it was.

Giosue always woke up at the same time, not a second earlier, not a picosecond later. That's not to say that he only ever woke up at the same time every single day stretching back to the beginning of his consciousness. But he always roused when he wanted or needed to be awake. And he happened to like waking up half an hour before dawn.

Having opened his eyes to the world around him, the Emendator went about his morning routine. He had each step down to a system. A science contained far too many errors to adequately describe the machine-like fluidity with with he went about his morning. Brushing his teeth took 138 seconds. Shaving another 623. Applying deodorant and cologne was a mere 75 seconds. It was around this time that he heard dear Nancy calling on the other side to hurry up. A bit earlier than usual, but she had probably woken up earlier due to her excitement for the big day. A quiet giddiness fluttered about in his stomach as well, but he couldn't let that throw off his rhythm.

Lastly he suited up, a process that expended 317 seconds, which when combined with the 47 seconds it took to get out of bed before starting his day and to leave his room, brought him to 6:20 exactly. Right when he had planned to leave the night before.

"Good morning, my dear," Giosue greeted Nancy as he stepped out of his room, a spring in his heel, and a parasol tucked under the pit of his arm. "Did you come over to do some last minute preparations for that?" It was a bit of fun that the two of them had concocted as a way of livening up the experiences of the confused newcomers that Eve happened to bring into their humble abode. There likely wasn't anyone around to hear their conversation and ruin the surprise, but he wasn't going to take the chance that some fresh-faced Paradox happened to escape Alicia's grasp, get lost within the manor and stumble into the conversation.

Mali had a feeling he would have replied the same way no matter what answer she gave him. But even if that feeling were true, she had no idea whether that would indicate him faking enthusiasm. Everything she had seen about him seemed excited for everything under the sun. As Mali followed Genny down the hall, she couldn't help but notice that she felt noticeably less energetic than she had before coming into the spa. Maybe Wayne's secret was that he just passively siphoned away everyone else's energy. He had to power that perpetual motion mouth somehow.

"Well, I always hated the smell of roses." How those rotten flowers became known for smelling good was beyond her. Their odious stench always made her stomach lurch when she had to be around them. And on top of all that, they were covered in thorns. What an overrated flower.

"Nothing else springs to mind immediately. Unless you have some weird, experimental scents. I'd like to opt out of those." Part of Mali felt that she could be squandering the gift she'd been given by playing things so safe, but then another part of her remembered that she didn't want to show up to a party smelling like earwax and goat cheese because that happened to be some fad she'd been unaware of. She just had to settle for being largely unhelpful to the nice assistant that had been assigned to her.

Harry Kingsfield

"Likewise." Although he didn't like being asked questions by strange people pointing weapons at him, his mental state was anything but furious at the moment. At the basest level his primal survival systems were alight, shouting DANGER, PREDATOR and pumping out the chemical cocktail that would let him move really quickly if need be. The higher conscious on the other hand was more suspicious and unwilling to help than anything. His eyes remained trained on the gun for the rest of the conversation.

"If I were the PI, it would be self-evident why I was here." Harry didn't really know why he was being so stubborn. Other than the gun, he didn't really have reason to be wary of either of these two, but he couldn't seem to help himself. Maybe it was the sulfurous odor that permeated the forest. Or he could just be hungry. He could go for lunch.

Character Summary

Name: Giosue Quintino Zino
Nicknames: "Josh", "Quint", Father Time, Thucydides, Hieronymus, Iovianus, Deodatus
Apparent Age: Vaguely elderly roughly in his 50s
Birthday: 12th of March 1890
Nationality: Italian
Adopted Accent: Received Pronunciation English
Birth Place: Pylos
Gender: Male
Languages: Mycenaean->Ancient Greek, Latin, Italian, French, English

Appearance

Height: 175cm
Weight: 66kg
Build: Slim
Eyes: Grey Almond
Hair: Bald, clean-shaven, grey/white body hair
Skin Tone: Pasty
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: N/A
Personal Style: Giosue dresses to impress no matter the era, and the slow expansion of clothing options just gives him more ways of looking spiffy. In ancient times that just meant having as long robes as he could afford made of the highest quality fabrics possible (probably linen; he never had the funds for silk or expensive dyes), but over time he's been able to diversify with clothing styles, accessories and color choices.

However, he's always been more on the conservative side, never showing more skin than necessary, keeping his hygiene prim and proper (generally clean shaven, but he's also grown a beard of occasion) and perhaps keeping everything a bit too straight-laced. One constant is that Giosue is always bald always. Technically he still has some hair on his head, but he keeps it shaved so as not to look ridiculous. There was a time before becoming Conscious that he mentions having a full head of hair, but such a sight has not been witnessed by anyone who has lived within the past 3 millennia. When the situation dictated it, he would wear a wig, but that hardly counts.

Psychology

Abstract * Impenetrable * Open * Rigid * Reliable * Know-it-all

Sexuality: Asexual
Relationship Status: N/A
Personality: "In my time I've seen humans have two main theories on how time works: a line or a circle. Always heading forward dauntlessly or winding around back to where to began. And in some ways they are both right and wrong in a sense. I would propose that the most accurate model for time would be that of a wheel. Present circumstance and my own capabilities notwithstanding, time is always progressing onward whether one likes it or not. But when you look at the history of humanity, broadly speaking behaviors repeat themselves and societies reflect that going through cycles of birth, rise, peak, decline, death and rebirth. And even beyond that more literally time is tracked in cycles. The cycle of day and night, the orbit of the moon and the Earth around the Sun. Even the vast majority of time-track devices are circular. But every time you return back to your starting point, you've moved forward.

Oh sure that might not sound very impressive laid out like that, but it took me quite a long time to really understand that or what it meant. People have a habit of taking knowledge they possess for granted. You're always doing the same things over and over again, but you can change the future, and in a way you can also change the past."

The primary personality trait of the Watch is Openness, the domain of creativity and abstract ideas. Giosue loves learning and experiencing new things, and he spends much of his time thinking about other things and studying ideas and hypotheses, often to the detriment of actually paying attention to his surroundings. However, his creativity makes him very good at coming up with unorthodox solutions to problems.

Second, but not by much is the trait of Conscientiousness, the personality aspect of Order. Like a watch, he is uniform, reliable and prompt. Even when he's wrong, he's wrong in a consistent matter. Everything has its place, and Giosue is loathe to make a mess of things. In this way he naturally does a good job of blending in, because he rarely acts in a way that would disrupt order, socially or legally.

Although the term introvert wouldn't fit him, extrovert doesn't quite work either. He makes his opinions known and talks when he thinks he needs to, but he's not overly assertive; however, he's no social doormat or shrinking violet. He does fine both in groups or alone, but doesn't excel or find himself particularly driven to either environment.

Giosue has over time, and especially after the death of Drem developed a sort of numbness to the blight of others. He has a difficult time caring about the problems of others and finds himself more distant with his fellow man than he was in times past. His words have taken on a blunt edge.

That said, despite his rude demeanor, he's not one easily upset. He's rarely anxious and just as uncommonly mad. Even under harsh circumstances he rarely loses his cool. But at the same time he can be blind to potential dangers or underestimate them simply as a factor of not thinking of them.
Habits: Looking at his wrist even though he doesn't wear a wristwatch, tapping his foot in-tempo
Hobbies: Writing Science Fiction, Composing Music, Restoring Antiques
Religion: Agnostic. Logically, something out there must have had a direct hand in making the Emendators. They were just too... unnatural for it to be otherwise. On the other hand, you would think that if there was some supreme god(s) out there, that it would make itself known at least to the immortal manipulators of time-space that it manifested. Give them some clue why they're around and what to do. But no. Nothing. So it was best to not worry about it.

History

Consciousness: "You wish for me to reminisce on days of yore? If you so desired I could just open up a portal and allow you to see what happened for yourself. It was quite the night, if I do say so myself, although thinking again you might wind up on the wrong side of the law if you just jumped in ignorant of the culture. Very well, I will simply recant that day as best as I remember.

I believe the year was 1427 BC in today's terms. I hadn't quite developed my knack for time then, so I can't be as precise as I normally would be. I was a military officer, had been for quite some time. Not an especially notable one, but I had my men and we were a skilled enough company as you'd put it in modern terms. We had just returned home from a successful campaign against a nearby kingdom and everyone was in high spirits. I gathered up all my men before they all went their separate ways as militaries did before professional soldiers came into vogue.

We were all in a bar, and everyone was having a ball. I'd consumed more than my fair share of liquor, and caught up in the spirit, I called everyone's attention to myself. I gave a speech. I don't quite remember the contents of most of it. Time and alcohol are quite a powerful combination when it comes to inducing amnesia within oneself. However, the end I'll never forget. The exact phrasing doesn't exactly translate into English, but as the capstone of my inebriated farewell I instructed my soldiers something along the lines of 'Go forth and be fruitful.'

Much to my surprise all of the men suddenly stopped their drinking and... well the rest wouldn't be a very suitable story to tell out in public if you're picking up what I'm putting down. I believe whenever I would happen to meet any one of those men later one would inevitably end up having quite large families. I don't think that was an extension of my own abilities, but it was an odd coincidence either way. I've never been able to have any children myself, but I guess I could treat any of their descendents as spiritually being my grandchildren and so on."

Favorite Era: "I feel rather left out whenever I'm asked a question like this. You see, almost without err, my favorite era at any given time is the one I live in at the time. Any particular time-frame I end up enjoying or despising always comes down to whoever I'm with at the time. Human nature is a constant, so every era ends up feeling the same to me with the exception of technological innovation.

As far as that goes, I always find myself enjoying the advances to knowledge made by the people around me. It also helps that as technology marches onward, I get access to better, more portable time tracking devices. It was quite the hassle trying to use the Watch when the primary method of telling time was a Grandfather clock. But to get back to the question at hand, I have no great love for any particular era. There were some events I didn't particularly care for, but to equate personal experience with the greater scope of history would be incredibly shortsighted. The equivalent for something on your scale would be akin to '1929 was my favorite year because that's when I met my wife.' Fair enough I suppose, but also millions of people lost their livelihoods and the world suffered the greatest economic crash in history."

Finding Another: "I was in what you'd call Denmark nowadays, June 23rd, 843. The time was 6:23, right around sunset. I was in a cozy little hamlet laying low. Scandinavia has the reputation for being cold, but during the summer it's quite nice. The winters are another story, but far from the frozen wasteland that it's often romanticized as.

Where was I? Ah yes, I was minding my own business when I notice in my peripheral vision that quite a few people collecting together down the street. It wasn't anything out of the ordinary until I happened to get closer and hear the tone of their voice and see them all moving in one direction. I don't quite remember what they were angry about, but they believed some girl was a trickster god or something.

Well I wasn't going to just stand by and allow them to tear some innocent girl to pieces, so before they could be upon her, I maneuvered my way to the front and issued a command to them. 'Ｒｅｔｕｒｎ　ｔｏ　ｙｏｕｒ　ｈｏｍｅｓ，　ｅｖｅｒｙｏｎｅ．' is what I said. What I didn't expect was for the woman to recognize my little trick as the power that it really was. Most surprising of all, she wasn't even surprised I had come to her aid. That was my first time meeting Nancy, and although at the time I was confused, I could tell we were two of a kind deep down. Something just clicked together then."

• 14th-12th Century BC: Mycenaean Greece

Emendators

---

---

🎆The Dice 🎆
"I think she's being too hard on herself, but nothing would change if I told her that."
Eve is perhaps the Emendator that Giosue is least familiar with, which is saying something considering how new Gil is. They have a very work-oriented relationship, and he's never really had reason to try going much further beyond that.

---

💜The Cards 💕
"Like OMG, Nancy and I are like *this*"
Nancy is the first Emendator he ever met, and their personalities and interests mesh very well together. He spends much of his time not doing emendator things with her. As far as the "like a family" tag goes, it applies most aptly to this duo who are like brother and sister. Brother and sister that look more like (grand)father and (grand)daughter.

---

💛The Hat 💛
"I enjoy our talks, but I think spending all his time in war might have colored his perception of his environment."
Gil is a really useful person to have around, and is also quite an interesting person to speak to, being the oldest of the emendators by several centuries. However, he still feels a bit like a "stranger" due to how new he is, relatively speaking. There's a lot Gio doesn't know about the man and is looking forward to finding out more.

---

🌓The Watch 🌓
"Cogito ergo sum."
The Watch has never really had a clear image of himself in his head to have a relationship. He is not good. He is not evil. He just is. Everything around him is what's interesting.

---

❣️The Glasses ❣️
"Ah, how I wish to know how he had viewed the world. Truly a beauty that shall be missed."
Drem could be a rather annoying chap to be around, but he was still fun to be around, and Nancy quite liked him as well. But that doesn't really matter now, what with Drem being dead and all.

---

---

Paradoxes

---

---

🌓Alicia Gonzalez 👋
"Honestly, I feel bad for her. Being stuck as a greeter for her entire existence as a Paradox has got to be extraordinarily dull."
Alicia's kind of a hassle. Sure she has skills and know-how, but her attitude can be an obstacle to interacting with her. Her assumption that she can be a serious contender in the centuries long prank war between him and Nancy by taking part in it at all shows the amount of human hubris she possesses.

---

🌓 Sophia Harris 🌓
"Out of all the Paradoxes I've trained this batch, she has left the least impression upon me."
She's fine enough. He doesn't really think about her unless she's directly related to the topic at hand. And even then it's an iffy prospect

---

🌓 James Grady 🌓
"I don't believe that he likes me."
And Gio doesn't really care either. The admiration of Paradoxes isn't really something he cares about. James has potential. All the other Emendators think he's a ticking timebomb, but Gio has full confidence that James can learn how to use his faults to his advantage.

---

🌓 Faith Masters 🌓
"She has drive."
And drive is good for a Paradox. You can't send someone with no fire to do missions and expect them to get done properly at all. The issue is that her egocentrism gets in the way of her own progress.

---

👋 Andromeda Aldrich 👋
"She's quite fun."
Having someone smart and eager to learn around is always such a pleasure, and you don't get that when it's only other Emendators and Elder Paradoxes around.

---

🌓 Alexandra Andonova 🌓
"She might end up forming an attachment to me. Let's hope that doesn't end up being the case."
Gio doesn't share everyone else's immediate distaste of Alexandra. Maybe it's because he spent essentially 0 time around her while she was normal, but even Nancy's complaints weren't really enough to sway him. Of course he wasn't going to stop her or chastise her. The fact that Alex managed to so quickly piss off Nancy was something to behold, but any disrespect from her or other young Paradoxes was like a child calling him a doodoo head. It just carried no weight. He can see the potential she has within her, it's just up to her whether she can realize it.

---

🌓 Bartholomew Rosecliff 🌓
"Subservient."
Young Bartholomew seems to allow himself to get swept away with whatever anyone else he's with decides to do. And if he does make some sort of disagreement, it's generally from a very short-sighted perspective. Not exactly the kind of person Gio has any kind of appreciation for, but he merely thinks little of the boy rather than any form of active dislike. He still has the chance to impress The Watch.

History

Consciousness: "You wish for me to reminisce on days of yore? If you so desired I could just open up a portal and allow you to see what happened for yourself. It was quite the night, if I do say so myself, although thinking again you might wind up on the wrong side of the law if you just jumped in ignorant of the culture. Very well, I will simply recant that day as best as I remember.

I believe the year was 1427 BC in today's terms. I hadn't quite developed my knack for time then, so I can't be as precise as I normally would be. I was a military officer, had been for quite some time. Not an especially notable one, but I had my men and we were a skilled enough company as you'd put it in modern terms. We had just returned home from a successful campaign against a nearby kingdom and everyone was in high spirits. I gathered up all my men before they all went their separate ways as militaries did before professional soldiers came into vogue.

We were all in a bar, and everyone was having a ball. I'd consumed more than my fair share of liquor, and caught up in the spirit, I called everyone's attention to myself. I gave a speech. I don't quite remember the contents of most of it. Time and alcohol are quite a powerful combination when it comes to inducing amnesia within oneself. However, the end I'll never forget. The exact phrasing doesn't exactly translate into English, but as the capstone of my inebriated farewell I instructed my soldiers something along the lines of 'Go forth and be fruitful.'

Much to my surprise all of the men suddenly stopped their drinking and... well the rest wouldn't be a very suitable story to tell out in public if you're picking up what I'm putting down. I believe whenever I would happen to meet any one of those men later one would inevitably end up having quite large families. I don't think that was an extension of my own abilities, but it was an odd coincidence either way. I've never been able to have any children myself, but I guess I could treat any of their descendents as spiritually being my grandchildren and so on."

Favorite Era: "I feel rather left out whenever I'm asked a question like this. You see, almost without err, my favorite era at any given time is the one I live in at the time. Any particular time-frame I end up enjoying or despising always comes down to whoever I'm with at the time. Human nature is a constant, so every era ends up feeling the same to me with the exception of technological innovation.

As far as that goes, I always find myself enjoying the advances to knowledge made by the people around me. It also helps that as technology marches onward, I get access to better, more portable time tracking devices. It was quite the hassle trying to use the Watch when the primary method of telling time was a Grandfather clock. But to get back to the question at hand, I have no great love for any particular era. There were some events I didn't particularly care for, but to equate personal experience with the greater scope of history would be incredibly shortsighted. The equivalent for something on your scale would be akin to '1929 was my favorite year because that's when I met my wife.' Fair enough I suppose, but also millions of people lost their livelihoods and the world suffered the greatest economic crash in history."

Finding Another: "I was in what you'd call Denmark nowadays, June 23rd, 843. The time was 6:23, right around sunset. I was in a cozy little hamlet laying low. Scandinavia has the reputation for being cold, but during the summer it's quite nice. The winters are another story, but far from the frozen wasteland that it's often romanticized as.

Where was I? Ah yes, I was minding my own business when I notice in my peripheral vision that quite a few people collecting together down the street. It wasn't anything out of the ordinary until I happened to get closer and hear the tone of their voice and see them all moving in one direction. I don't quite remember what they were angry about, but they believed some girl was a trickster god or something.

Well I wasn't going to just stand by and allow them to tear some innocent girl to pieces, so before they could be upon her, I maneuvered my way to the front and issued a command to them. 'Ｒｅｔｕｒｎ　ｔｏ　ｙｏｕｒ　ｈｏｍｅｓ，　ｅｖｅｒｙｏｎｅ．' is what I said. What I didn't expect was for the woman to recognize my little trick as the power that it really was. Most surprising of all, she wasn't even surprised I had come to her aid. That was my first time meeting Nancy, and although at the time I was confused, I could tell we were two of a kind deep down. Something just clicked together then."

Emendators

---

---

🎆The Dice 🎆
"I think she's being too hard on herself, but nothing would change if I told her that."
Eve is perhaps the Emendator that Giosue is least familiar with, which is saying something considering how new Gil is. They have a very work-oriented relationship, and he's never really had reason to try going much further beyond that.

---

💜The Cards 💕
"Like OMG, Nancy and I are like *this*"
Nancy is the first Emendator he ever met, and their personalities and interests mesh very well together. He spends much of his time not doing emendator things with her. As far as the "like a family" tag goes, it applies most aptly to this duo who are like brother and sister. Brother and sister that look more like (grand)father and (grand)daughter.

---

💛The Hat 💛
"I enjoy our talks, but I think spending all his time in war might have colored his perception of his environment."
Gil is a really useful person to have around, and is also quite an interesting person to speak to, being the oldest of the emendators by several centuries. However, he still feels a bit like a "stranger" due to how new he is, relatively speaking. There's a lot Gio doesn't know about the man and is looking forward to finding out more.

---

🌓The Watch 🌓
"Cogito ergo sum."
The Watch has never really had a clear image of himself in his head to have a relationship. He is not good. He is not evil. He just is. Everything around him is what's interesting.

---

❣️The Glasses ❣️
"Ah, how I wish to know how he had viewed the world. Truly a beauty that shall be missed."
Drem could be a rather annoying chap to be around, but he was still fun to be around, and Nancy quite liked him as well. But that doesn't really matter now, what with Drem being dead and all.

Paradoxes

---

---

🌓Alicia Gonzalez 👋
"Honestly, I feel bad for her. Being stuck as a greeter for her entire existence as a Paradox has got to be extraordinarily dull."
Alicia's kind of a hassle. Sure she has skills and know-how, but her attitude can be an obstacle to interacting with her. Her assumption that she can be a serious contender in the centuries long prank war between him and Nancy by taking part in it at all shows the amount of human hubris she possesses.

🦄 Darker Than Black - Merged With T.S.

---

Location: Diamond District

---

---

Mali turned around and watched Zoie walk away for a good, hard second as that confusing package of emotions that cropped up last night made itself known again. People used the term butterflies in one's stomach to describe infatuation; it would have been much easier to deal with that. She felt something in the pit of her stomach, as if some ghostly hand had reached inside her abdomen and clutched her innards into a tight fist before giving it a twist for good measure. It was going to be really hard to work if this pattern kept up. She was supposed to be dealing with a conspiracy, not wrestling her emotions in check every few hours.

Mali turned back to Wayne and thought over her options, with the distraction that was Zoie only barging in uninvited a few times. There were two immediate options that sprang to the front of the line. A deep tissue massage would probably do her the best, but a thai massage sounded interesting. She had never heard of it, and she was half Thai herself. Sort of. It could be neat getting a bit of experience with a facet of her culture that she was unfamiliar with.

"Eh... I'll go for the deep tissue massage," she said as she stood from the chair and dusted off any bits of hair that weren't caught by the drape from the robe.

🦄 Duplicity - D&D Style Fantasy Rp Adventure (Completed)

Cyne

Location: Tower
Interacting with:A2

The door had yet to be successfully broken down, and if there were anyone capable and willing to open the door with another method, they were out of luck now. She could probably wait for Keystone to do it, but why bother staying in a beefed up form if you weren't going to use the muscle it gave you?

Well she felt really comfortable, at ease as a bear, but that was beside the point. Making an audible grunt, the bear took a few steps back and aligned with the door. Nor quickly caught on and moved out of the way, lest he get knocked into the room as well. One quick gallop later and the door was no longer a barrier to entrance in the room, but the impact jarred Cyne enough so that she couldn't really get a grip on what was in the dimly lit room for a few seconds, and almost stumbled into a wall.

Once centered, the druid noted that there was a desk to one side, a drawer to the other and front and center was a bed. One person was underneath the covers and a robed individual who knelt there not even looking towards the group. Part of Cyne wanted to try talking to either of the individuals, but she didn't want to drop the Ursa shape while the chance of combat was still quite high.
