is unsure if I should take the Christmas Special as a more lighthearted thing, or just make Bael, well, Bael


Disco Bael
~ Vikki ~


"Alright, I can deal with this."

Those were Vikki's first words after being transformed into a mermaid. Spoken with contentment, they were immediately followed by a loud splash as Vikki dove underwater to do some...testing. This involved swimming around very quickly, darting in all directions and speeds to get used to the agility limits of a mermaid. Vikki needed to be comfortable in her own skin, even if it was now half scales. The "testing" also involved swinging her katanas around underwater to see how useful they would be. Still useful, but more difficult. After a couple of minutes of generally disturbing everyone on the surface by splashing a lot, Vikki surfaced again.

"I'm going to have to watch for rust...mental note to get some dedicated underwater weapons made ASAP," Vikki remarked to nobody in particular as she took stock of everyone else mermifying. "As soon as you're all comfortable enough, let's go," she called out, this time to everybody in particular. Looking at Kail, she continued, "Whenever you're ready."

Carmen looked up after playing the last note of the tune as she felt a poke, that she knew came from Lily, her roommate and partner in crime. "Oh, you're too kind, Lily," the skylark purred in response to the angel's compliment. "I'm so glad you like it. You look lovely, by the way. The dress compliments you nicely...and of course the shoes," she teased. "I think we stylized well together," she said, looking over her own flowing dark red dress.

Listening to Lily's question, Carmen looked over at the band quickly and replied. "I booked the band for another hour, but I can have them pack up early if you'd like. They wouldn't mind...they're still getting paid, after all. Or I could just join the festivities and have them keep playing on their own. Whatever all of you would like."

She hoped Lily hadn't noticed that in addition to the gifts that Carmen put under the tree for her roommate, there were many more waiting at their apartment.

Before she could run with that thought anymore, though, she was hit square in the stomach with a snowball. She saved herself from falling backwards onto the saxophone player, and she was perplexed. "If that's what the 'shadows of evil' look like, we've all been worrying for no reason," she joked with Lily. "Hey cats - let's hit #21. "Let it Snow" in E flat. Here we go..."

After hastily counting off the band, she turned her attention back to the stealth snowballman. "What's wrong, don't like the music?" she called out with a critical, but still playful, tone. She noticed that others, conspicuously including Crash, were involved in CQC (Cold Quarters Combat) as well, so she didn't think much of an errant snowball.
Which, how are the other groups going? Like, when was the last post? Do I need to somehow step in and help out or could someone else step in and help out? Is it a problem of not having enough players? I'm not entirely sure what the problem is but I believe, as far as I'm aware, we have 4 RPers going to New Atlantis (5 if NK decides he'd like to pop back in.) and should have 3 in Europe and 2, Unfo and I, running around doing... things. -shrugs-


Besides NK I think the group on the ship is all accounted for (you, me, Beast and AL), but the Europe group (Beast, me, chux, and Raijin) has one unaccounted for. I'll send him a message sometime today to see what's up. I think we have enough peepz, it's just the activity.
Hey all ^^

Sorry about the delay in posting, I didn't finish uni until last Friday 18th <.< And the last four days have just been -.- hectic as hell. But I've got a Rain post up and once Christmas is out of the way I'll have a lot more free time until late January :D

Speaking of, can I tag in on the Christmas special? Rather intrigued by what I've read so far :P Especially hyped by the prospect of Carlily xD


:D

Of course you're welcome to join!
"How is it that it always snows around Christmas here?"

"C'mon Mitch, you've lived in Oasari for two years now, you should know the answer to that."

"Yeah, you know how it is. The people wanted it to snow during the holidays so they made it happen. Magic 'n' that."

"We Oasarians definitely benefit from magic, that's for sure."

"Well I mean...have you seen our bandleader?"

"I heard that."

"I know."

"Alright, second set incoming! Hit #44 and we'll go from there."

"You going to sing this set, Carmen?"

"You be glad I already wrote your check, Bobby."

And with that, amidst a ripple of chuckles emanating from the band members, Carmen counted off the band and the second set began. As the pianist took a lengthy solo on "It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year" and the group's soothing jazz vibes spread over the town square, Carmen leaned on the side of the bandstand and took a look around. The giant Christmas tree in the middle of the square was quickly taping shape, people the skylark knew and loved roamed the snow-covered Fußgängerzone (pedestrian zone), and Christmas spirit filled the air as the snow gently fell. Carmen smiled as the peaceful, picturesque scene unfolded before her before turning to cue the end of the piano solo.
