Groundhog Day (Seth/Walter/Ophilia)

[Cameo]

[07:29:36] Malachy 19: Walter: *heads to where they keep Seth's book*
[07:30:21] TNGFawe: Book: *There!*
[07:31:01] Malachy 19: Walter: *opens it up!*
[07:31:41] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *totally remembered to tell Seth that Walter wanted to talk to him today. Yup. She did <.< >.>*
[07:33:58] TNGFawe: Walter: *Would find, this time, that Seth does not come out, but, rather, Walter goes in.*
[07:34:09] Malachy 19: Walter: Woah....
[07:34:19] Malachy 19: Walter: Unexpected, but this works...
[07:38:27] Malachy 19: Walter: *looking around* Seth?
[07:41:50] TNGFawe: Seth: *Totally not in sight, but Walter is in a courtyard.*
[07:42:51] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *pacing in her room*
[07:43:41] Malachy 19: Walter: Never been here before....*starts exploring*
[07:45:44] TNGFawe: Obvious Exits: *Stone causeway that leads into the castle, and the stables*
[07:45:47] Malachy 19: Walter: *decides to head into the castle*
[07:46:16] SillyCameo: (It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.)
[07:46:49] Malachy 19: (Walter: *eaten by a grue*)
[07:48:06] SillyCameo: (Annie: :<)
[07:48:20] Malachy 19: (Walter: Didn't think you cared)
[07:48:43] TNGFawe: Castle: *Is marvelous castle of Athurian myth, and countless people wander the corridors. None seem to really pay much mind to Walter*
[07:48:52] SillyCameo: (Annie: You're less fun to bug inside a grue :<)
[07:49:15] Malachy 19: (Walter: I know you love me)
[07:49:44] Malachy 19: Walter: *Thinks this may be a blessing and continues to search for what may be Seth's room*
[07:52:25] TNGFawe: Walter: *Unfortunately, he's in the lower areas of the keep - Judging from the smell, near the kitchen. Knights wouldn't be housed here!*
[07:53:40] Malachy 19: Walter: Great v_v
[07:55:55] TNGFawe: Walter: *Mwhahahah! Sucks to be him!*
[07:57:23] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(THe hell is Seth....)
[08:01:30] TNGFawe: Seth: *Absent!*
[08:01:34] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(Ah, forget this. Lizzy told him I was coming I'll jsut go wait for him at the courtyard) *wanders back out to the courtyard*
[08:02:35] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *On the way out, a timid looking girl of about fifteen, focusing intently on her tray, bumps smack-bang into Walter, the soup and bread going flying. Probably landing all over him!*
[08:03:39] Malachy 19: Walter: Ah! S..sorry!
[08:04:03] Malachy 19: Walter: Ah Geez, I'm sorry...
[08:04:26] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: Ah! *Scrabbling to pick up the tray, bowl and food, eyes averted.*
[08:04:57] Malachy 19: Walter: *has the bread, helps her pick up the rest of the soup* Well, here's the bread...though you might need more soup...
[08:07:51] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *Hugging the tray to her chest, as if it's some sort of security item, before looking at Walter* S-Sir, I'm sor sorry, I didn't mean to run into you... I've made your garb dirty...
[08:08:30] Malachy 19: Walter: Don't worry about it, really ^_^; I wasn't paying attention myself. Hurry on to where you were going, I wouldn't want you to get in trouble
[08:10:24] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: N-no, it's just my food... I didn't want to spill it again...
[08:11:02] Malachy 19: Walter: Again?
[08:12:24] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, you should be a bit more careful. Want me to help you carry it?
[08:12:42] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *The tray falls with a clatter as she spots the soup on Walter's clothes* O-oh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to get your costume dirty!
[08:14:39] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(Costume? ^_^; ) No, it's ok, really
[08:19:01] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *Grabs his arm, picking up the tray with her free hand* Come. We'll get you cleaned up, okay? If you're going to perform, you c-can't be covered in soup, right?
[08:19:37] Malachy 19: Walter: No, really I'm ok. I'll be fine. You should go eat your food
[08:20:25] TNGFawe: Girl: Please, at least let me get you some new clothes. I can wash your costume in no time and return it nice and clean!
[08:20:51] TNGFawe: Soup: *Smells pretty funky, and is seeping through his clothes.*
[08:22:06] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(Well, new clothes will help me blend in more I guess...) Well, if you insist
[08:23:59] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *Spritely smile!* Right, you can get undressed in my room while I go round up some clothes, then.
[08:25:03] Malachy 19: Walter: I'd rather have the clothes first ^_^; oO(I have a bad feeling about this...)
[08:25:30] Malachy 19: (Just name him WIlliam)
[08:26:06] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: Right, right. *Leading the way* So... Uh, don't recognize you. I've been here since I was eight, I recognize most people here.
[08:26:23] Malachy 19: Walter: I'm, uh, not from here
[08:32:10] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: Oh, new act? We get new acts every now and then. Where are you from?
[08:33:01] Malachy 19: Walter: Far away
[08:34:05] Malachy 19: Walter: I doubt you've heard of it ^_^;
[08:38:17] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *Opens the door to her room. It's tiny, just a hard bed, and a small chest at the foot which presumably holds her stuff* Well, this is my room. I'll just try and find you some stuff to wear, okay?
[08:38:47] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Seth!
[08:39:20] TNGFawe: Seth: *In the stables!*
[08:39:33] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *Calling from the balcony*
[08:39:45] Malachy 19: Walter: Thank you...umm...
[08:39:47] TNGFawe: Seth: *Calls back* Yes, Lizzy?
[08:39:59] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Can we talk?
[08:41:02] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *Small curtsey* Ophilia.
[08:41:19] TNGFawe: Seth: *Calls back* I'll be up in a minute!
[08:41:26] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Hurry please!
[08:41:45] Malachy 19: Walter: *bows* Walter. Pleasure to meet you, Ophilia
[08:41:53] TNGFawe: Seth: *Grabs his stuff and hurries upstairs* Yes?
[08:43:27] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Right, Walter. *Little weirded out by the bow, as she's just a serving girl after all* I'll be back with somethin' decent to wear.
[08:43:38] Malachy 19: Walter: Thank you ^_^;
[08:44:40] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Shuts the door and hurries off*
[08:44:56] Malachy 19: Walter: *sighs* Well this is a nice mess you found yourself in
[08:45:40] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *deep breath* Seth...ready for some good news?
[08:46:58] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Gathering some clothes and some info, and soon returns, knocking. This takes about ten minutes.*
[08:47:05] TNGFawe: Seth: As ever.
[08:47:07] Malachy 19: Walter: Come in
[08:47:19] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Want to be a daddy?
[08:47:49] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Dumps the items on the bed, they're hand me down, but sturdy and clean*
[08:48:13] TNGFawe: Ophilia: These belonged to some scullery boy who just up and vanished one day. Good condition.
[08:48:35] Malachy 19: Walter: Thank you, Ophilia
[08:48:41] TNGFawe: Seth: *Nods*
[08:48:50] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: well...umm...you are ^_^;
[08:48:53] TNGFawe: Ophilia: I'll, uh, just leave you to get changed then.
[08:49:14] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* I'll come out when I'm done ^_^;
[08:49:30] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Stands in the door for several seconds as if she expects him to do it there and then* Oh, right! *Spritely smile, shuts door*
[08:50:13] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(WHy do I get myself into these situations ^_^;; ) *gets changed*
[08:50:15] TNGFawe: Seth: *Deep breath* *Hugs!*
[08:51:05] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *hugs him back*
[08:51:33] Malachy 19: Walter: *after he is all changed he comes out of the room*
[08:55:16] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Oh, good. Fits okay. Little loose across the chest but that's okay. Got your dirty stuff?
[08:55:37] TNGTingYi: (Lizzy: that's because Seth has an amazingly ripped chest ^_^)
[08:55:52] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: I love you Seth.
[08:56:11] TNGFawe: Seth: I love you too, Lizzy.
[08:56:17] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods and hands her his dirty "costume"* It fits well, yeah. THnk you again
[08:59:57] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: You can go back to what you were doing. ^_^; Just thought you should know we finally managed to get our first bun in the oven.
[09:00:06] TNGFawe: Ophilia: No trouble. It'll take a little while to clean this stuff up, you hungry?
[09:01:18] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, I was actually supposed to meet someone here but...well I have no idea where he is so I guess I can have some food
[09:01:45] TNGFawe: Seth: *Kisses her!* Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!
[09:02:26] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *beaming smile*
[09:02:27] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Starts walking to the kitchen* Just be careful of the cook, she's kinda a big bully. And if she tells you to do something, do it sharp. *Twinkly smile!*
[09:02:42] TNGFawe: Seth: You are the most glorious woman alive.
[09:03:02] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *glowing really, it could be the pregnancy but most likely it's Seth*
[09:03:39] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *blushing a bit too* I love you. You can go rub it in the faces of all those other knights
[09:03:43] Malachy 19: Walter: I'll be sure to remember that ^_^;
[09:05:37] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Tell them the greatest man who ever lived now has a beautiful son to carry on his name.
[09:05:48] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *has no idea if its a boy or a girl, but she's being nice*
[09:07:44] TNGFawe: Seth: I don't need to do that right now, Lizzy. *Squeeze, kiss*
[09:08:39] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: hmm, you could always kiss me more. I like that
[09:08:52] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Ushers him into the kitchen, which, as time-period appropriate, is full of women!*
[09:09:09] TNGFawe: SEth: *Obliges!* I'll give you as many kisses as you want now, Lizzy
[09:10:11] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *kissed* Well I think I could handle a few more...
[09:10:14] Malachy 19: Walter: *ushered!* You sure this is ok?
[09:12:44] TNGFawe: Seth: *Isn't going to stop any time soon.*
[09:13:03] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Gone! Presumably, to wash his clothes*
[09:13:17] Malachy 19: Walter: .... Wonderful ^_^;
[09:13:26] Malachy 19: Walter: *heads up to the cook*
[09:13:48] TNGFawe: Cook: *Large woman. LARGE woman. Kindly, motherly face though!*
[09:13:51] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *celebrates baby making with more practice baby making!*
[09:14:00] TNGFawe: Cook: You lost hun?
[09:14:25] Malachy 19: Walter: I was told I could get some food
[09:14:56] TNGFawe: Cook: Hun, around here, we don't just 'get' food. We work for it.
[09:15:18] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, then what would I have to do ^_^;
[09:17:23] TNGFawe: Cook: *Indicates the large pile of dishes by a tub of water* This is a kitchen, hun. There's always something to do.
[09:17:33] TNGFawe: Seth: *Baby making'd!*
[09:17:45] Malachy 19: Walter: Yes ma'am. *goes over to do the dishes* oO(WHat am I doing? ^_^; )
[09:19:16] TNGFawe: Cook: *Watches him go*
[09:19:38] TNGFawe: Several Other Serving Girls: *Watch as well - Hasn't really been a penis in kitchen since Seth left.*
[09:20:43] Malachy 19: Walter: *wash wash was* oO(I'm being stared at ^_^; )
[09:29:27] Malachy 19: Walter: *Helps his mom wash the dishes, so he knows what he;s doing!*
[09:30:53] TNGFawe: Walter: *Once he's done with the pile (Drip-dry!), he will be given food. Should take about twenty minutes, tops.*
[09:32:58] Malachy 19: Walter: *finishes all the dishes and takes his food* Thank you very much
[09:33:32] TNGFawe: Cook: *Grunt, giving him soup and bread, while going back to the banquet work*
[09:33:55] Malachy 19: Walter: *looks around if there's anyplace he can eat*
[09:34:31] TNGFawe: *While the whole kitchen seems busy, there's a little place in the corner where it looks he could sit and eat in peace.*
[09:34:54] Malachy 19: Walter: *goes to said place and eats!*
[09:36:06] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(I really should try and find Seth after this ^_^; )
[09:36:11] Malachy 19: Walter: *eat eat*
[09:36:52] TNGTingYi: (you might not want to find him right now Walter)
[09:37:15] Malachy 19: (Walter: Why? Lizzy told him I would be coming!)
[09:37:23] TNGTingYi: (he's just...busy)
[09:37:34] Malachy 19: (Walter: Darn)
[09:39:17] Malachy 19: Walter: Hmmm...*gets back up and takes his dirty dishes to go wash them*
[09:40:24] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Of course, returns when he's up to his elbows in water.* Why're you washing?
[09:42:33] Malachy 19: Walter: I was told to wash some dishes for something to eat ^_^;
[09:42:47] Malachy 19: Walter: Then after I finsished I decided to jsut wash my plate
[09:44:38] TNGFawe: Ophilia: You didn't have to do all that...
[09:45:13] Malachy 19: Walter: It was ok. Gave me something to do, anyway
[09:48:58] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Well, your costume's drying... *Pulls up a stool, her pixie-like features becoming yet another smile* What're you gonna do for your play?
[09:49:32] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, I'm not sure, yet. We're kinda on break. I just came here to meet someone, really
[09:51:14] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Oh, who?
[09:53:33] Malachy 19: Walter: I was looking for Sir Greenwood, but I guess he's busy
[09:56:15] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Racking her brains* Greenwood, Greenwood... Heard that name somewhere before...
[09:59:39] TNGFawe: Ophilia: That was the guy who owned the clothes you're wearing! He wasn't a Sir, though. *Chortles* That'd be the day, when a dishwashing boy could be a knight...
[10:00:52] Malachy 19: Walter: *internal face palm* Oh, err, yeah sorry. DOn't know why I said that, he's actually a character I'm playing ^_^; oO(Horrible lame save)
[10:02:51] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Oh. *Smile!* So, who is it you're looking for then?
[10:02:59] Malachy 19: Walter: Kinda funny, I get the costume for the fake greenwood all messy and actually get the old clothes of another greenwood. *nervous laugh* ^_^;; oO(Please buy this)
[10:03:29] Malachy 19: Walter: Sir Morgan, sorry.
[10:06:12] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Oh, Sir Morgan? I can take you there.
[10:06:42] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Gathering gossip! How cunning.*
[10:06:48] Malachy 19: Walter: Well I wouldn't want to if he's busy
[10:10:45] TNGFawe: Ophilia: He was in the stables not too long ago.
[10:10:57] Malachy 19: Walter: Thanks, I'll go head there

[Cameo]

[19:32:51] Malachy 19: Walter: *walking to the stables* Thank you again
[19:33:20] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Did Walter ever come to see you?
[19:39:59] TNGFawe: Seth: NO, never
[19:40:08] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Oh, it's no problem at all.
[19:40:49] Malachy 19: Walter: Guess I really should have checked them first
[19:41:43] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Nods, holding the tray to her chest. She's still got it!* Y-yeah...
[19:42:08] Malachy 19: Walter: You know, you can put that tray down I'm not going to attack you ^_^
[19:46:20] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Odd
[19:50:05] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: I told him to pick up the book.
[19:50:35] TNGFawe: Ophilia: D-didn't think you would...
[19:50:45] TNGFawe: Seth: I was waiting in the stables...
[19:51:04] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Maybe you should check...
[19:51:08] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: With pants though
[19:52:36] Malachy 19: Walter: Don;t be so nervous, Ophilia. Relax a bit ^_^
[19:52:52] TNGFawe: Seth: Yes, perhaps
[19:53:04] Malachy 19: (Psh, who needs pants)
[19:53:26] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Don't want all the girls getting jealous ^_^
[19:57:44] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Sorry...
[19:58:44] Malachy 19: Walter: Don't be sorry. Just loosen up a bit more, ok? Why are you so nervous all of a sudden anyway?
[20:01:23] TNGFawe: Ophilia: You want to see a knight is why
[20:01:33] TNGFawe: Seth: Right, right.
[20:01:53] Malachy 19: Walter: Doesn't make me any different, does it?
[20:02:16] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Or the men...*smirk*
[20:05:07] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Yes, actually
[20:05:15] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Means I've been actin' poorly
[20:05:40] Malachy 19: Walter: I'm just a jester, remember? ^_^;
[20:06:02] Malachy 19: Walter: You're more fun acting your normal self anyway, no need to be all formal just around me
[20:07:01] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Okay...
[20:07:09] TNGFawe: Seth: I'd hope not.
[20:07:17] Malachy 19: Walter: SO smile and relax, ok? ^_^
[20:09:23] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Weak smile*
[20:09:39] Malachy 19: Walter: There we go. A little better at least ^_^
[20:10:19] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: I think they'll just be jealous of your *ahem* size Seth.
[20:11:30] TNGFawe: Seth: I see...
[20:11:49] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Reaches the stables - They're empty except for horses.*
[20:12:15] Malachy 19: Walter: Guess I missed him...
[20:13:37] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *kisses Seth* I love you.
[20:13:49] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Your son loves you, I can tell already
[20:18:07] TNGFawe: Seth: I know
[20:18:11] TNGFawe: Seth: I love him, too
[20:18:21] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: ^_^ Good. *kiss*
[20:21:10] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, I guess I'll wait for him here till he gets back.
[20:24:22] TNGFawe: Ophilia: we could go to his quaters...
[20:24:28] TNGFawe: Seth: *Kiss*
[20:27:13] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, sure. If you're OK with that
[20:27:33] TNGFawe: Ophilia: It means I don't have to leave you yet!
[20:28:47] Malachy 19: Walter: I see ^_^; oO(Uh oh...)
[20:29:50] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Unless you want to stay here and wait...? *Flutters eyelashes*
[20:30:07] Malachy 19: Walter: Whichever is easiest for you, Ophilia ^_^;
[07:21:54] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, whichever you think is best, Ophilia ^_^;
[07:27:59] TNGFawe: Ophilia.*Smile* How long are you going to be here?
[07:30:03] Malachy 19: Walter; Not for long. Just came for a visit.
[07:30:55] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Sits daintily on a haystack, sinking in slightly* You must've been travelling quite a while
[07:31:19] Malachy 19: Walter: Oh, it wasn;t as bad as you'd think
[07:32:12] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Well, tell me all about it. *Crosses legs, hands on prominent knee.*
[07:32:29] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *goes back to housewife things*
[07:32:57] TNGFawe: Seth: *Dons pants.*
[07:33:46] Malachy 19: Walter: Really it wasn;t anything special. Just a lot of walking
[07:36:08] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Pats the hay, trying to get him to sit down* You've got to tell me what's like to be a performer, Walter! Where did you find such outlandish clothes?
[07:37:26] TNGFawe: Seth: *Comes up behind Lizzy to put his hands around her waist and hold her cose, kissing her neck* You're beautiful
[07:37:41] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: You're cheesy.
[07:38:01] TNGFawe: Seth: I'm from a book.
[07:39:01] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: yeah, I know
[07:39:09] Malachy 19: Walter: *sits down* It's fun, I guess. You get to see the smiles of all the little children and that really makes my day. As for the costume, people can have really wild imaginations ^_^;
[07:39:40] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: I love you
[07:40:30] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Shifts over a bit. Closer! All covert like, hard to notice.* That sounds really nice. *Spritely smile* Is Sir Morgan your friend?
[07:41:11] TNGFawe: Seth: *Turns her, still holding close* I love you, too. *Kiss!*
[07:41:25] Malachy 19: Walter: Promise not to freak out and get all nervous again?
[07:42:23] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *kiss*
[07:43:30] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Cutesy honest smile* Promise!
[07:43:49] Malachy 19: Walter: All right. Well, he's my brother-in-law, actually ^_^;
[07:44:10] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Lady Elizabeth's your sister?
[07:44:17] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* yeah
[07:44:43] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Gone from being a dervish to being slightly wide-eyed.* U-uh, would that make you a noble?
[07:45:12] Malachy 19: Walter: It would make me Walter, is what it would make me ^_^;
[07:46:22] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Promised not to freak out, but has stopped scooting closer* I haven't been disrespectful have I?
[07:46:39] Malachy 19: Walter: Of course not. I asked you to be yourself, didn't I?
[07:46:59] Malachy 19: Walter: I don;t like it when people act all weird around me ^_^;
[07:47:07] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Nod, her smile kinda returning.* Sorry...
[07:47:25] Malachy 19: Walter: Nothing to be sorry about, Ophilia. ^_^
[07:48:09] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Inches closer again* You're very kinda for someone who knows nobles
[07:48:40] Malachy 19: Walter: thanks, I guess. I just think people should be nice to everyone
[07:49:02] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Practically sitting right next to him!* I think so, too!
[07:51:18] Malachy 19: Walter: *nervous laugh* Well, that's good. ^_^;
[07:52:20] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Looking the other way, gently rests a hand on his, and removes it almost immediately* I'm sorry you had to do all the cleaning earlier...
[07:52:32] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Ah! *gets pot off the fire*
[07:52:54] TNGFawe: Seth: *Laughs* I mean it. The most beautiful woman ever.
[07:53:08] Malachy 19: Walter: Really, it's ok. I'm used to doing dishes ^_^;
[07:53:18] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: yes yes
[07:54:39] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Turns to look him in the eyes* You're a very noble man, Walter. Even if you're not a Sir.
[07:55:27] Malachy 19: Walter: Th..thanks, Ophilia. That means a lot, actually ^_^;
[07:55:33] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *working with hot things*
[07:55:42] TNGFawe: Seth: *Thinks she is a hot thing!*
[07:57:36] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: You're making this difficult >.<
[07:58:52] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Smiles her pixie-like smile, leaning a little closer* You're nicer than most the knights around here...
[07:59:35] Malachy 19: Walter: Well...maybe that's because I'm not a knight. Just a performer who pretends to be one
[08:00:11] TNGFawe: Seth: I'm sorry. I just can't resist you.
[08:00:40] TNGFawe: Ophilia: You're better than a knight to me...
[08:02:22] Malachy 19: Walter: *reddens a little* Uh...thanks ^_^; oO(uh oh...ooh boy...)
[08:03:51] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Well start resisting
[08:03:56] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Puts a hand on his far shoulder, firmly but gently pushing him back onto the hay.* *Sultry* I really like you, Walter...
[08:04:11] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: go on out
[08:05:05] TNGFawe: Seth: *Mock pout which turns into a grin* Must I?
[08:05:17] Malachy 19: Walter: *blush!* O..Ophilia!
[08:05:42] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: yes!
[08:06:57] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Kiss, then hold a finger to his lips* Shhhhh. Just lie still, Sir Walter...
[08:08:20] Malachy 19: Walter: *kissed* Ophilia, wait. I..I just met you
[08:09:14] TNGFawe: Seth: *Hands on her hips* But it's such a chore...
[08:10:42] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Go! *shakes a wooden spoon at him*
[08:11:24] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Smiles again. She's quite pretty, in a fey sorta way, and it's definately noticable as she climbs atop him.* But you might not be here tomorrow...
[08:13:09] Malachy 19: Walter: *gulp* B..but still, we shouldn't. W..we just met!
[08:13:32] TNGFawe: Seth: *Smiling* I'm sure Walter's doing fine wherever he is
[08:13:45] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: I'm not doing fine with you here
[08:13:50] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: you're in my way silly
[08:14:52] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Untying her dress, and showing what she's got on offer.* I promise not to tell if you don't...
[08:15:00] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Starting to draw curtain!*
[08:15:56] TNGFawe: Seth: *Laughs and lets go* Look but don't touch?
[08:16:14] Malachy 19: Walter: *Stops her and pushes her off as gently as he can, rolling off the hay* I..I'm sorry, OPhilia...
[08:16:55] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Out! You've lost looking privileges!
[08:17:51] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Looking incredibly hurt, clutching her dress to her chest* Am I ugly?
[08:18:12] Malachy 19: Walter: N..no! Far from it, actually ^_^; *brisght red*
[08:18:50] TNGFawe: Seth: I can't even look? *Playful mutter* Wicca.
[08:19:21] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *whacks him on the butt with the spoon* OUT!
[08:20:40] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Starting to tear up* B-but I'm going to die in t-twenty seven pages...
[08:21:26] Malachy 19: Walter: Y..you're going to what?
[08:21:56] TNGFawe: Seth: *Spoon'd!* All right, I'm going!
[08:22:11] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Covers mouth with horror - She broke character!*
[08:23:22] Malachy 19: Walter: *smiles and oputs a hand on her shoulder* Hey, don't look like that, ok?
[08:24:25] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Her hands fall to her sides lamely as she starts to cry. Thankfully, her dress stays on her chest so she stays a semblance of 'decent'.*
[08:24:51] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: Darn right you are~!
[08:24:59] Malachy 19: Walter: *hugs her* Shhh...it's ok...oO(Well..not really if she's gonna die...)
[08:25:31] TNGFawe: Seth: *Laughs and shuts the door behind him*
[08:26:14] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Wipes her eyes, I-I thought something might've changed, and I'd met someone this time! *Sob* I've even got a name now!
[08:28:02] Malachy 19: Walter: *smiles at her* Well, if it means anyhing, I think it's a very pretty name
[08:31:01] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Sniff* You really think so?
[08:32:09] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* A very pretty girl with a pretty name. It suits you
[08:32:40] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Watery smile* T-thank you...
[08:33:04] TNGTingYi: Lizzy: *goes back to her work*
[08:33:27] Malachy 19: Walter: *smiles bck* Your welcome, Ophilia. Now put your dress back on, ok?
[08:34:12] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Makes no such move to do so, and scooches closer to Walter* P-please, Walter...
[08:36:43] Malachy 19: Walter: Ophilia....
[08:37:13] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Buries her head in his chest, holding tight.*
[08:39:15] Malachy 19: Walter: *holds her close to him* oO(Ophilia....)
[08:41:38] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Quietly* I-I'm sorry...
[08:42:20] Malachy 19: Walter: It ok Ophilia, really.
[08:44:01] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Looks up at him, tears brimming in the corners of her eyes.*
[08:44:38] Malachy 19: Walter: *wipes them and smiles* Hey, you said it yourself, you met someone this time. And you have a name. You might not die, right?
[08:46:12] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Shakes her head* I w-will...
[08:46:31] Malachy 19: Walter: Then make the rest of your time as happy as possible, right?
[08:46:55] TNGFawe: Ophilia: I-I'm trying to...
[08:51:01] Malachy 19: Walter: *smiles at her* Happiness isn;t just sex, Ophilia
[08:57:56] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Sad look* I k-know... It's just, I've never... *Looks away* I'm sorry...
[09:01:03] Malachy 19: Walter: It's ok, Ophilia. IF it means anything, if I wasn;t waiting for marriage I would've slept with you. You're a very pretty girl. *smile*
[09:02:10] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Covers her face again*
[09:02:50] Malachy 19: Walter: *moves her hands away* SMile, ok?
[09:04:15] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Teary as heck* I-I'm sorry...
[09:04:40] Malachy 19: Walter: Stop saying you're sorry. You did nothing wring
[09:08:23] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Hugs up close* *Weak smile* C-can we get married, then?
[09:09:27] Malachy 19: Walter: I think you now the answer to that, Ophilia
[09:12:08] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Weak laugh* I h-had to try...
[09:12:35] Malachy 19: Walter: Nothing wring with trying, right?
[09:12:58] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Whats the point? I'm j-just gonna die anyway!
[09:13:21] Malachy 19: Walter: Don't talk like that, Ophilia
[09:16:39] TNGFawe: Ophilia: B-but it's true...
[09:17:08] Malachy 19: Walter: Yesterday, wouldn't you say that it as tre that you'd never have a name? Or ever meet me?
[09:18:32] TNGFawe: Ophilia: I did... Once.
[09:18:39] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Is a liar it seems!*
[09:18:46] Malachy 19: Walter: Once?
[09:19:42] TNGFawe: Ophilia: The boy whose clothes you're wearing...
[09:19:55] TNGFawe: Ophilia: back in the very very original copy...
[09:20:53] TNGFawe: Ophilia: We were meant to be together, but never were, because we'd die. A-and then he dissappeared...
[09:21:11] Malachy 19: Walter: I see...oO(Seth...)
[09:22:48] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Starts crying again, hugging close. If there was a mood before, it's been killed now!*
[09:23:43] Malachy 19: Walter: *holds her close and rubs her back* I'm sorry, Ophilia
[09:24:38] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Cries.*
[09:25:24] Malachy 19: Walter: *just continues to hold her* oO(This is so cruel..)
[09:26:44] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Is gonna be a good while.*
[09:29:27] Malachy 19: Walter: *has patience*
[09:31:28] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Soon, just dry sobbing. It takes a good few minutes.*
[09:31:53] Malachy 19: Walter: *rubbing her back* oO(I wish there was something I could do. *sigh* )
[09:33:24] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Soon just clinging to him, not saying anything.*
[09:34:03] Malachy 19: Walter: Ophilia?
[09:34:47] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Small voice* Yes?
[09:35:53] Malachy 19: Walter: It will be ok, right? oO(Is this girl really just a character? DOes that make her less "real" then me?)
[09:37:36] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Gulp* *Sniff sniff* Y-yeah...
[09:38:23] Malachy 19: Walter: *smiles* Good. Smile for me, ok? *kisses her forehead* oO(Then what about Elly? THe King? All the poeple from Valencia. Are they "fake" too?)
[09:39:06] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Weak smile - Her heart's not in it.*
[09:40:39] Malachy 19: Walter: See? You're a lot cuter when you smile. oO(IS that why Seth looks down on me so much? Cuz all I do is play around in some imaginary fake world? Cu I think the fantasy is real?)
[09:42:15] TNGFawe: Ophilia: T-thank you...
[09:43:14] Malachy 19: Walter: Your welcome, Ophilia. *smiles* oO(But her. She knows she's in a book yet she just contonues to head towards her death. WHat is that? Bravery? Conviciton? Stupidity?)
[09:44:07] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Nods, looking down*
[09:44:21] TNGFawe: Ophilia: W-we should find Sir Morgan...
[09:45:42] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* Yeah. You ok? oO(This just isn't fair)
[09:47:49] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Stands, stoically putting her dress on.*
[09:48:35] Malachy 19: Walter: *looks away to give her privacy* oO(DOes she have to die? Why? Cuz it's written in the plot?) *looks over at her*
[09:52:15] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Heads to the exit of the stables* Are you coming? *Same, spritely smile. As if nothing happened.*
[09:52:49] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods and follows her* Have you ever met Sir Morgan before?
[09:53:58] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Nods* Yes
[09:54:46] Malachy 19: Walter: What do you think of him?
[09:56:25] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Dismissively* He
[09:56:31] TNGFawe: 's just another knight...
[09:56:59] Malachy 19: Walter: You don;t like the knights much, do you?
[09:57:09] TNGFawe: Ophilia: He seems to care more about the peasants than the other knights...
[09:57:58] Malachy 19: Walter: Oh?
[10:00:14] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Picks up her tray as she leads Walter, clutching it to her chest again* *Nods* Left here...
[10:00:51] Malachy 19: Walter: What's wrong, Ophilia? oO(Is she acting like she's "supposed to" again? How she's written?)
[10:01:28] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Nothing's wrong, Walter.
[10:02:23] Malachy 19: Walter: If you say so, Ophilia....oO(I'll save you, Ophilia. I dont know how, but I'll try)
[10:08:26] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Finally ends up outside the banquet hall* He's in there...
[10:08:49] Malachy 19: Walter: THank you, Ophilia...oO(Now what?)
[10:11:47] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Go on inside. *Small smile* I'll go get your outfit.
[10:12:15] Malachy 19: Walter: Thank you Ophilia. *smiles* I'll see you later
[10:13:41] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Sadly* Take care, Walter.
[10:14:34] Malachy 19: Walter: *takes her hand* Ophilia
[10:15:06] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Looks away.*
[10:17:17] Malachy 19: Walter: I'll make sure to say goodbye before I leave
[10:19:55] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Okay...
[10:21:34] Malachy 19: Walter: *smiles at her*
[10:23:42] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Small smile back* I'm happy I met you.
[10:24:12] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* And I'm happy I met you, Ophilia
[10:25:46] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Turns and walks away.*
[10:26:29] Malachy 19: Walter: 8watches her leave* .... oO(Ophilia....I'm sorry)
[10:28:36] Malachy 19: Walter: *knocks*
[10:29:33] TNGFawe: Seth: Come in!
[10:29:49] Malachy 19: Walter: *enters*
[10:31:04] TNGFawe: Room: *Obviously a banquet hall of some sort, though, as of right now, it's devoid of people. Except Seth.*
[10:31:19] TNGFawe: Seth: *Reclining in a chair* Having fun in Camelot?
[10:32:07] Malachy 19: Walter: It's ok. *looking at Seth* oO(All this was just ink on paper. Was it you, Seth, who gave them all life? You who turned a story into people forced to die?)
[10:36:13] TNGFawe: Seth: Mead?
[10:36:29] Malachy 19: Walter: *shakes his head* No thnaks. I'll be fine
[10:37:04] TNGFawe: Seth: *Nods* What did you want to talk about, Walter?
[10:37:37] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, to be honest, I originally wanted to come here to talk about what you said to me a couple months ago. About becomming a real knight
[10:38:18] TNGFawe: Seth: *Nods* What did you want to say?
[10:38:59] Malachy 19: Walter: I wanted to ask for help
[10:40:01] TNGFawe: Seth: I'm more than happy to help you.
[10:40:22] Malachy 19: Walter: *light smile, ut his thoughts seem to be elsewhere* Thank you, Seth...
[10:43:56] TNGFawe: Seth: *Nods* I'm glad that you thought about it, really.
[10:44:06] Malachy 19: Walter: Really?
[10:44:18] TNGFawe: Seth: *Nods*
[10:44:26] Malachy 19: Walter: Why?
[10:45:35] TNGFawe: Seth: I wanted what's best for you, and you were being incredibly self destructive...
[10:46:03] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* Yeah. I know I was
[10:46:25] Malachy 19: Walter: But I want to change, Seth. I want to stop pretending to be something. I want to be something
[10:47:35] TNGFawe: Seth: *Drums his fingers* And what do you want to be, Walter?
[10:49:24] Malachy 19: Walter: I haven;t decded yet, Seth. But I want to make people happy. I want to see them smile. I don't think it's realistic for me to be a "knight," I live in a world where such a thing doesn't exist
[10:49:31] Malachy 19: Walter: But I want to help people, in my own way
[10:51:00] TNGFawe: Seth: *Nods, smiling* If you'd just said to be a knight or a hero or somesuch, I would have sent you home
[10:52:10] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, I'd like to think I've learned a little, Seth. Thank you
[10:53:34] TNGFawe: Seth: So, what did you need to see me for, then?
[10:56:09] Malachy 19: Walter: Because you're strong, Seth. And you're my brother-in-law. I don;t know what I want to be yet, but I know I want to be stronger, a better person. I wanted to know if you could help?
[10:57:05] Malachy 19: Walter: I know you're barely a year older then me, but I feel like you're much older then I am
[10:59:57] TNGFawe: Seth: What type of strength do you seek?
[11:01:56] Malachy 19: Walter: I'd like to jsut say "strength of character" ....*holds his arm and looks down* But You live here, and I have freinds still in Valencia, and Redford has been a dangerous place lately...
[11:04:33] Malachy 19: Walter: I want to be able to protect my freinds. Maybe deep down I'm still a kid who wants to be a hero, but I want to do something
[11:06:09] Malachy 19: Walter: I can't just ignore the people I've met in Valencia because it's a "dream world." And what if someone really does kidnap Tracy? Or someone else I care about?
[11:08:06] TNGFawe: Seth: Quite a conundrum.
[11:08:17] Malachy 19: Walter: it is, isn't it?
[11:10:05] TNGFawe: Seth: Are you familiar with the theory, that, if you were to go back in time and stop Booth shooting Lincoln, he'd probably die slipping as he stepped out of the tub?
[11:10:21] Malachy 19: Walter: Not that exactly, but something similar
[11:10:47] TNGFawe: Seth: *Puts feet up* Books are like that.
[11:11:23] Malachy 19: Walter: Books? You mean all the people here?
[11:11:43] TNGFawe: Seth: Yes.
[11:12:03] TNGFawe: Seth: Each book is like it's own world.
[11:12:06] Malachy 19: Walter: So you can just and wait and do nothing and watch them die? Because it's predetermined?
[11:12:24] TNGFawe: Seth: I've tried.
[11:12:30] TNGFawe: Seth: Believe me, I've tried.
[11:12:39] Malachy 19: Walter: It feels...so wrong
[11:12:42] TNGFawe: Seth: Never have things turned out for the best.
[11:12:57] TNGFawe: Seth: I warned Arthur, once. Of what Lancelot would do.
[11:13:25] Malachy 19: Walter: So we just give up?
[11:13:48] TNGFawe: Seth: *Gently* No. You try and make it as easy for everyone as possible.
[11:14:13] Malachy 19: Walter: Yes...you're right. *light smile* We can try
[11:15:33] Malachy 19: Walter: *sighs* I think I've learned more in the past hour then I have my whole life
[11:15:53] TNGFawe: Seth: And what have you learned, Walter?
[11:18:03] Malachy 19: Walter: That sometimes, the smallest character, even without a name, can be more important then the hero. THat being a "hero" means nothing if you ignore everyone else and just do it for yourself
[11:18:49] TNGFawe: Seth: Ah... Ophilia.
[11:19:17] Malachy 19: Walter: I met her while trying to find you. I got all kinds of lost ^_^;
[11:21:14] TNGFawe: Seth: It's sad, isn't it?
[11:21:43] Malachy 19: Walter: Extremely....
[11:21:43] TNGFawe: Seth: She's like me, in a way.
[11:22:25] TNGFawe: Seth: She knows she's in a book. But, unlike me, she's bound by the plot. Can't escape.
[11:22:46] Malachy 19: Walter; And there's no way to save her?
[11:23:10] TNGFawe: Seth: I'm afraid not.
[11:23:15] Malachy 19: Walter: Why?
[11:23:26] TNGFawe: Seth: I tried countless times.
[11:24:53] Malachy 19: Walter: I feel like I can;t just give up on her. Like I have to try
[11:25:18] TNGFawe: Seth: Each time I interfered and she was named, she suffers more.
[11:25:31] TNGFawe: Seth: She's not a complicated character. Very simple, in fact.
[11:25:52] TNGFawe: Seth: It's very easy for her to fall in love, or become stricken with sadness.
[11:26:23] Malachy 19: Walter: Maybe I'm naive. But seeng these people move, breath. I know I'm in your book, but I can;t just call her a "character"
[11:27:33] TNGFawe: Seth: I know.
[11:28:51] Malachy 19: Walter: *sighs* I don't know, Seth
[11:29:25] TNGFawe: Seth: Imagine how she must feel, Walter. Exsisting for only a few pages, only to have whatever she worked for, or discovered, snatched away.
[11:30:01] TNGFawe: Seth: Walter, the reason she always dies when she's named is suicide.
[11:30:28] TNGFawe: Seth: If she isn't, it's just a tragic accident that's never mentioned.
[11:32:37] Malachy 19: Walter: Suicide!?
[11:32:46] TNGFawe: Seth: *Sad nod*
[11:32:59] Malachy 19: Walter: Then we have to find her Seth, before it's too late!
[11:33:24] TNGFawe: Seth: *Puts a hand on his shoulder* Walter, it was too late when you parted ways
[11:34:00] Malachy 19: Walter: No! *knocks it away* I won;t believe it!
[11:34:17] Malachy 19: Walter: Even if I'm too late, I can;t live with myself unless I try!
[11:34:27] TNGFawe: Seth: She spilt soup on you, didn't she?
[11:34:36] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods*
[11:35:27] TNGFawe: Seth: It's how it originally happened. She washed your clothes, and walked and talked with you. But you're not in town for long.
[11:36:03] TNGFawe: Seth: And that breaks her heart.
[11:36:31] Malachy 19: Walter: There has to be a way to save her, Seth!
[11:36:42] Malachy 19: Walter: I can;t believe people's fates are predetermined
[11:37:05] TNGFawe: Seth: Even if these are living breathing people Walter, this isn't Earth
[11:38:21] TNGFawe: Seth: Their fate is literally written, and the only person who can change it is the Author.
[11:39:49] TNGFawe: Seth: Just like the people in your dreams. You gave them life. The way they'll act is how you imagined they'd act. How you created them to act.
[11:40:28] Malachy 19: Walter: That's not true, Seth. I can;t believe that. They are real, with their own thoughts, their own destinies.
[11:41:16] TNGFawe: Seth: So if you were to die tomorrow, would they still exsist?
[11:41:39] Malachy 19: Walter: Yes. They would
[11:42:24] TNGFawe: Seth: Just as books exsist.
[11:42:52] Malachy 19: Walter: Then what about Elly? Is she not real? With her own will?
[11:45:50] TNGFawe: Seth: *Gently* Did they exsist before you came? Or is that the past you gave them?
[11:47:31] TNGFawe: Seth: Because that is the case with the inhabitants of books. As far as I know, I am the only exception.
[11:49:52] Malachy 19: Walter: How do you know they didn't, Seth?
[11:52:11] Malachy 19: Walter: I'm sorry. I respect you more then anyone, Seth. But this is one thing we are going to have to disagree on
[11:55:39] TNGFawe: Seth: I know, Walter. I fight it where I can. I just try and make people as happy as possible. Before the inevitable.
[14:03:40] TNGFawe: Seth: Ophilia is happier when she doesn't have a name...
[14:03:59] Malachy 19: Walter: Well she has one now, Seth, and I have to go stop her from killing herself
[14:04:26] TNGFawe: Seth: *Nods* It's the right thing to do.
[14:04:48] Malachy 19: Walter: Do you know where she might be?
[14:05:01] TNGFawe: Seth: In her room.
[14:06:18] Malachy 19: Walter: How do I get there?
[14:06:40] TNGFawe: Seth: You've been there already. Or have you forgotten the way?
[14:06:59] Malachy 19: Walter: No, I should be able to make it. Thank you, Seth
[14:07:08] Malachy 19: Walter: *runs out of the room*
[14:07:48] TNGFawe: Seth: *Watches him go*
[14:07:52] TNGFawe: Seth: *Heavy sigh*
[14:09:06] Malachy 19: Walter: *rushes to Ophilia's room*
[14:10:06] TNGFawe: *Outside there's a small pile of clothes - Walter's clothes, all clean and neatly folded.*
[14:10:10] Malachy 19: Walter: *bursts into her room* Ophilia!
[14:10:15] TNGFawe: Door: *Locked*
[14:10:35] Malachy 19: Walter: Ophilia! It's Walter! *Rams the door with his shoulder*
[14:10:56] TNGFawe: Door: *Sturdy castle door!*
[14:11:48] Malachy 19: Walter: Dammit...there's no time to get a locksmith or something....*Looks around for someting to bash the door in with*
[14:12:25] TNGFawe: *Only thing handy nearby is a chair. He could bash off the lock if he tries.*
[14:13:38] Malachy 19: Walter: *will do so!* C'mon, Ophilia!
[14:15:19] TNGFawe: Lock: *Smashed, and the door can be opened!*
[14:15:30] Malachy 19: Walter: *bursts in!*
[14:16:18] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Is, as Seth said, dead.*
[14:16:42] Malachy 19: (how? Hanging, stabbed?)
[14:16:50] TNGFawe: (Stabbed herself!)
[14:17:29] Malachy 19: Walter: No! *runs up to the body and takes the knife, holding pressure and trying CPR* No!
[14:17:43] Malachy 19: Walter: Ophilia! Dammit why!?
[14:17:52] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Already cooling.*
[14:18:26] Malachy 19: Walter: *holds her* Dammit! Why did I have to take so long to mention you...I could've gotten here in time...*starts crying*
[14:18:44] TNGFawe: Seth: No, you couldn't have.
[14:19:12] Malachy 19: Walter: There had to be something....
[14:20:22] Malachy 19: Walter: I should've just slpet with her, then she would've been happy and wouldn't have...wouldn't have...
[14:21:13] TNGFawe: Seth: *Grabs him by the collar, one handed, dragging him to his feet.* No, you shouldn't have. You did the right thing.
[14:21:36] Malachy 19: Walter: Dammit....This just....it feel so wrong
[14:22:25] TNGFawe: Seth: And sometimes, you've got to accept that it is wrong. Don't dwell on that. Concentrate on making that person happy.
[14:23:03] Malachy 19: Walter: It's not the death that's wrong, Seth. It's the fact that it was predetermined....and she knew it
[14:23:24] TNGFawe: Seth: *Sad nod* She knows whenever she gets her name back
[14:23:36] Malachy 19: Walter: But why?
[14:24:30] TNGFawe: Seth: Why? Why can you walk dreams?
[14:25:14] Malachy 19: Walter: *sigh* It makes no sense, Seth. No one else knows they are in a book
[14:25:53] TNGFawe: Seth: Ophilia is a special case.
[14:26:08] Malachy 19: Walter: I noticed
[14:26:09] TNGFawe: Seth: It's just misfortune that it's not to the same extent as myself...
[14:26:49] Malachy 19: Walter: Is there no way to save her at all? Pull her out or something?
[14:27:10] TNGFawe: Seth: I've tried that. It didn't work.
[14:27:25] Malachy 19: Walter: What happened?
[14:27:44] TNGFawe: Seth: Nothing. Nothing happened when I tried it.
[14:28:12] Malachy 19: Walter: There has to be a way
[14:29:39] TNGFawe: Seth: You think I haven't tried to find one?
[14:30:30] Malachy 19: Walter: Tracy's cloak. We could try Tracy's cloak
[14:31:02] TNGFawe: Seth: She's not a dream, Walter.
[14:32:15] Malachy 19: Walter: No, she's not. But I might be able to take her to Valencia with the cloak
[14:32:52] TNGFawe: Seth: And what if she dies again? You can't turn back the page there.
[14:33:03] TNGFawe: Seth: *More appraising the cruel.*
[14:33:22] Malachy 19: Walter: Then at least she's out of the bounds of the plot, Seth
[14:33:32] Malachy 19: Walter: She has a chance
[14:34:35] TNGFawe: Seth: It could work, really.
[14:34:53] TNGFawe: Seth: Or it could fail. Then there'd be blood on your hands, Walter.
[14:35:32] Malachy 19: Walter: Her blood is already on my hands, Seth. And they will be on my hands for all eternity as she cotninues to die over and over ith me doing nothing
[14:36:06] TNGFawe: Seth: Ah, here's the rub: You see, if she isn't named, she's happy.
[14:36:21] Malachy 19: Walter: But she still ends up dying, doesn;t she?
[14:36:27] TNGFawe: Seth: She lives out her life in obscurity, but she's happy
[14:36:48] Malachy 19: Walter: I see
[14:37:02] Malachy 19: Walter: *rubs his temples*
[14:37:37] TNGFawe: Seth: Helping people is a lot harder than you thought it would be, isn't it?
[14:38:22] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods*
[14:38:46] TNGFawe: Seth: Then you're learning
[14:39:28] Malachy 19: Walter: Learning...
[14:40:33] TNGFawe: Seth: The most important lessons are always the hardest to learn
[14:41:06] Malachy 19: Walter: You're right Seth
[14:43:30] TNGFawe: Seth: *Thinks there's a 'but' coming, so waits!*
[14:43:54] Malachy 19: Walter: *sigh* You're right a lot.
[14:44:26] TNGFawe: Seth: I've had more practice
[14:44:59] Malachy 19: Walter: Do you think I can learn, Seth?
[14:46:00] TNGFawe: Seth: Yes
[14:46:14] Malachy 19: Walter: I'm not sure wha to do right now
[14:47:02] TNGFawe: Seth: Then you gotta do what you think is right
[14:47:48] Malachy 19: Walter: That's the hard part
[06:06:23] TNGFawe: Seth: You can never truly know, either
[06:08:28] Malachy 19: Walter: *sigh*
[06:14:06] Malachy 19: Walter: This is a tough decision, Seth
[06:17:17] TNGFawe: Seth: I know
[06:18:35] Malachy 19: Walter: *looks away* C..can we get out of here?
[06:20:51] TNGFawe: Seth: *Nods, stepping aside.*
[06:21:09] Malachy 19: Walter: *walks out of the room* ...
[06:24:13] TNGFawe: Seth: *Shuts the door behind him, picking up Walter's belongings.* So, what do you want to do?
[06:24:47] Malachy 19: Walter: I want to help her
[06:25:08] TNGFawe: Seth: And how do you plan to do that?
[06:28:29] Malachy 19: Walter: I want to try the cloak. But...I'm afraid
[06:28:53] TNGFawe: Seth: That you'll fail?
[06:30:44] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* And I'll be the reason she's dead
[06:31:00] TNGFawe: Seth: Dead for good, that is.
[06:31:45] Malachy 19: Walter: yes, for good
[06:40:10] Malachy 19: Walter: THat terrifies me
[06:40:34] TNGFawe: Seth: It should
[06:40:58] Malachy 19: Walter: But she deserves better
[06:46:18] TNGFawe: Seth: She does
[06:50:49] Malachy 19: Walter: *lets out a deep breath* I think I'm gonna try
[06:52:47] TNGFawe: Seth: All right
[06:53:47] Malachy 19: Walter: I think it's the right thing to do
[06:59:16] TNGFawe: Seth: Well, you can't do it now.
[06:59:41] TNGFawe: Seth: Well need to go back a few pages to where she comes in, and you'll have to get her a name again.
[06:59:51] Malachy 19: Walter: And I'll need my cloak
[07:01:03] Malachy 19: Walter: So yeah, it will have to wait
[07:01:44] TNGFawe: Seth: *Nods* It will
[07:02:23] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, that certaintly was a buzz kill. *nervous smile*
[07:03:35] TNGFawe: Seth: Mmmhm.
[07:04:28] Malachy 19: Walter: *scratches the back of his head*
[07:05:59] Malachy 19: Walter: SO....what now?
[07:14:57] TNGFawe: Seth: Well, we can talk some more.
[07:15:29] Malachy 19: Walter: I guess that works
[07:16:58] TNGFawe: Seth: It can take some discipline, Walter
[07:17:10] TNGFawe: Seth: To learn when to and when not to interfere
[07:18:08] Malachy 19: Walter: In the book, you mean?
[07:24:16] TNGFawe: Seth: In everything
[07:24:58] Malachy 19: Walter: You think I'm being immature? Trying to help her?
[07:26:54] TNGFawe: Seth: Mo, you're only human
[07:27:30] Malachy 19: Walter: Thank you, Seth
[07:28:55] TNGFawe: Seth: You're welcome. Now, take off your shirt.
[07:29:26] Malachy 19: Walter: Uh...sure. *takes it off*
[07:29:56] TNGFawe: Seth: Stand up straight
[07:30:20] TNGFawe: ((How's Walter physically?))
[07:33:23] Malachy 19: ((Not ripped like Seth, but surprisingly toned Good uper body strength))
[07:33:26] Malachy 19: Walter: *does so*
[07:34:10] TNGFawe: Seth: We're going to chop some wood, Walter
[07:34:23] Malachy 19: Walter: All right
[07:34:55] TNGFawe: Seth: And you're going to wear full plate mail.
[07:36:23] Malachy 19: Walter: *used to wearing chain mail, at best* *nods* ok
[07:36:36] Malachy 19: Walter: *tries not to look too excited*
[07:37:06] TNGFawe: Seth: Then we'll go for a run, and then I'll teach you how to fight.
[07:37:34] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* All right
[07:39:53] TNGFawe: Seth: Come. We'll get you suited up.
[07:40:06] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* Yes, Seth
[07:44:33] Malachy 19: Walter: *prepares to follow Seth*
[07:45:35] TNGFawe: Seth: *Leads the way* I warn you now, it's not light.
[07:46:22] Malachy 19: Walter: If you think I can handle it I'll give it my best, Seth
[07:47:35] TNGFawe: Seth: We won't be training here, either.
[07:47:45] Malachy 19: Walter: Then where?
[07:49:06] TNGFawe: Seth: Mordor.
[07:49:26] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, can't get much harsher then that, I guess ^_^;
[07:49:42] TNGFawe: Seth: I know.
[07:49:55] Malachy 19: Walter: All right. I'm up for it
[07:55:16] TNGFawe: Seth: Good: *Tosses a brigandine and hauberk to Walter* Put these on.
[07:55:46] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods and starts to don the armor* OK...
[07:56:16] Malachy 19: Armor: *heavier then he is used to, but he doesn't let it show*
[07:56:31] TNGFawe: Seth: Here's the breastplate. *Holding it with one-handed ease.*
[07:57:12] Malachy 19: Walter: *takes it and places it on as well* Thank you
[07:57:44] TNGFawe: Armor: *Really starting to weigh the kid down by now.*
[07:58:09] Malachy 19: Walter: *Trying not to let it show if possible. He'll struggle with it*
[07:58:35] TNGFawe: Seth: Turn around.
[07:58:44] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods and does so*
[07:59:11] TNGFawe: Seth: *Attaches gorget* Head straight.
[07:59:51] Malachy 19: Walter: *straightens his head as best he can*
[08:00:23] TNGFawe: Seth: *Spaulders next.* I won't make you wear a helm.
[08:01:17] Malachy 19: Walter: Sounds good
[08:01:47] TNGFawe: Seth: *Straps on vambraces, pulling them tight.*
[08:02:42] Malachy 19: Walter: *winces a bit, the armor really starting to weigh him down, but he remains still*
[08:04:30] TNGFawe: Seth: *Hands him some gauntlets.* *Unrolls some chausses.* You'll need to step into these.
[08:05:02] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods and straps into the gauntlets as well, making sure they are on well*
[08:06:15] TNGFawe: Seth: Then the fauld. It's slightly longer than normal to compensate for the lack of workable plate cuisses in this time.
[08:07:30] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* of course
[08:08:53] TNGFawe: Seth: *Straps on greaves* Only sabatons left. I'll have youu wear a Barbute, just in case.
[08:09:33] Malachy 19: Walter: Whaterver you think is best
[08:10:53] TNGFawe: Seth: *Hands it to him* There's no shame in admitting it's too much.
[08:12:28] Malachy 19: Walter: I admit, it is a bit heavy, Seth. But I can't improve if I just baby around
[08:14:07] TNGFawe: Seth: Good, good. *Holds out a broad ax.* You'll be felling the trees in Mirkwood.
[08:15:14] Malachy 19: Walter: *takes the ax* Ok. I'm ready when you are
[08:16:48] TNGFawe: Seth: *Withdraws a book from the shelf - Why an armory has a shelf is a good question, one I shall answer by saying 'It's Seth's Personal Armory.*
[08:17:44] TNGFawe: Seth: *Thumbs the pages* On second thoughts, trees in the Shire might be best...
[08:18:25] Malachy 19: Walter: Isn't that the happy place with all the halflings?
[08:19:38] TNGFawe: Seth: Alternatively, it's the place without all the elves that will shoot you without hesitation if you harm their trees.
[08:20:28] Malachy 19: Walter: Ah, good point ^_^;
[08:20:40] TNGFawe: Seth: Similar to why we won't go to Fangorn - As the trees will kill you themselves.
[08:20:56] Malachy 19: Walter: That might be a problem
[08:22:00] TNGFawe: Seth: *Takes Walter to the forests of the shire, far away from any prying eyes. He sits nearby.* Pick a tree. Get chopping.
[08:22:24] TNGFawe: Seth: Take your time. I've got a book. *Starts reading*
[08:23:52] TNGFawe: All trees: *Quite thick.*
[08:24:38] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* Ok. *Takes a deep breath and goes over a tree and starts chopping*
[08:28:39] Malachy 19: Walter: *thinks this is the best manual labor ever*
[08:28:45] TNGFawe: Walter: *Will more than likely get very tired very easily.- He is wearing over an additional eighty pounds of metal, after all.*
[08:29:40] Malachy 19: Walter: *does get tired pretty quickly and stops to take a quick breather...well, slow down at least*
[08:30:15] TNGFawe: Seth: Don't over exert yourself.
[08:30:51] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* It's very heavy
[08:33:20] TNGFawe: Seth: We'll march later.
[08:34:41] TNGFawe: Seth: *Observes* You're hacking wrong. A broad axe is a top-heavy weapon. Give it the initial momentum then let the weight do the rest.
[08:35:00] TNGFawe: Seth: It'll be much easier that way, and not as wearisome.
[08:35:04] Malachy 19: Walter: *takes a new grip and tries again* Like this?
[08:35:51] TNGFawe: Seth: Put one hand directly underneath the axe head/
[08:38:41] Malachy 19: Walter: Like this? *does so*
[08:39:17] TNGFawe: Seth: Good.
[08:39:35] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods and goes back to chopping* Thank you, Seth
[08:40:39] TNGFawe: Seth: I'm just giving you the easier job first.
[08:41:07] Malachy 19: Walter: Well...*chop* Have to start somewhere
[08:41:23] TNGFawe: Seth: After this tree is felled, the next you can't start on until you've cut off every branch, so there's nothing but a trunk remaining
[08:41:42] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* Understood
[08:42:02] TNGFawe: Seth: In the armor.
[08:42:14] Malachy 19: Walter: Of course
[08:44:00] TNGFawe: Walter: *Despite his effort, nearly an hour passes, and he probably hasn't even reached the halfway.*
[08:45:08] Malachy 19: Walter: *begins to breathe heavier, but refuses to give up!*
[08:45:25] TNGFawe: Seth: We can call it a day, Walter.
[08:45:39] Malachy 19: Walter: Are you sure?
[08:46:26] TNGFawe: Seth: *Turns a page. * It's up to you.
[08:47:03] Malachy 19: Walter: I can go a little more
[08:47:26] TNGFawe: Seth: By all means, keep going then.
[08:47:50] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods and continues chopping then!* Hey...Seth?
[08:49:51] TNGFawe: Seth: Yes?
[08:50:26] Malachy 19: Walter: *chop chop* If I wasn't Lizzy's brother...would you still take time out of your life to help me like this?
[08:50:42] TNGFawe: Seth: If I'd met you, probably.
[08:51:04] Malachy 19: Walter: *smiles and continues his work* Thank you, Seth
[08:51:49] TNGFawe: Seth: *Looks at the skyline*If you're not done by dusk, we'll be going swimming.
[08:53:59] Malachy 19: Walter: Swimming sounds good. *chop chop!*
[08:57:39] TNGFawe: Seth: Not when you're wearing fifty kilos of metal.
[08:59:20] Malachy 19: Walter: THat might make things difficult ^_^;
[08:59:48] TNGFawe: Seth: *Just turns a page*
[09:02:15] Malachy 19: Walter: *goes back to chopping*
[09:03:46] TNGFawe: Time: *Passes, and the sun starts to set - Poor Walter'd probably be exhausted by now*
[09:05:20] Malachy 19: Walter: *is indeed completely exhausted and rests on the ax a bit*
[09:06:31] *** TNGTingYi has left the chat.
[09:07:20] TNGFawe: Seth: Done yet?
[09:08:24] Malachy 19: Walter: *takes a look to see how close to finished the tree is*
[09:10:58] TNGFawe: Tree: *If it's about to topple is entirely up to Walter's author now!*
[09:17:05] Malachy 19: Tree: *is just about to fall*
[09:17:30] Malachy 19: Walter: I'm...I'm almost done
[09:19:05] TNGFawe: Seth: Good work.
[09:20:11] Malachy 19: Walter: *Picks up his axe and does a final few swings. THe tree begins to creak and then fall over*
[09:21:09] TNGFawe: Seth: Good work.
[09:21:31] TNGFawe: Seth: *Stands* All right, lets go get something to eat.
[09:22:02] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* Sorry I couldn't...cut off all the branches
[09:25:16] TNGFawe: Seth: That's next time. Before you cut down the tree.
[09:25:49] Malachy 19: Walter: Oh. *nods* ok. I could really use something to eat
[09:27:28] TNGFawe: Seth: *Returns them to Camelot, leaving the tree in the forest.* We'll get you out of the armour. Your arms probably feel like lead.
[09:27:49] Malachy 19: Walter: Like liquid lead
[09:30:49] TNGFawe: Seth: *Unclips the breastplate, letting it fall to the ground*
[09:31:22] Malachy 19: Walter: *visibly shows relief as the weight is removed from his body*
[09:33:24] TNGFawe: Seth: *Gauntlets, greaves, spaulders, fauld, sabatons etc. Everything except the brigandine from what was added is removed.*
[09:34:45] Malachy 19: Walter: THanks
[09:35:27] TNGFawe: Seth: You can get washed up while I get the servants to prepare dinner.
[09:35:43] Malachy 19: Walter: Where can I get washed up?
[09:38:05] TNGFawe: Seth: There's a wash-up area three doors down, on the right. Should be a warm tub there. If there isn't, just ring the bell.
[09:38:24] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* All right. I'll see you after I've washed up
[09:40:28] TNGFawe: Seth: *Goes to inform the kitchen.*
[09:40:51] Malachy 19: Walter: *heads to the washroom as stated by Seth*
[09:41:55] TNGFawe: Washroom: *Though the tub is indeed there, it's sadly lacking in water.*
[09:42:05] Malachy 19: Walter: *rings said bell then*
[09:45:05] TNGFawe: *It's not too long, then, before a girl arrives to investigate. A very familiar serving girl, in fact...*
[09:45:26] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *Clutching tray* Y-you rang, Sir?
[09:47:32] Malachy 19: Walter: ...oO(You gotta be kidding me....) COuld you fill the tub for me?
[09:52:54] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *Spritely smile* Of course!
[09:53:21] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* oO(Think of something >.< )
[09:56:37] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: Do you need anything else m'lord? Besides water?
[09:57:30] Malachy 19: Walter: *trying to act as...not himself as possible* THat will be all
[09:59:26] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *Smiles as she fills the water heating tub with water, and puts some logs underneath* I don't recognize you, Sir.
[09:59:34] TNGFawe: *..?
[10:06:37] Malachy 19: Walter: I am new here. oO(Don;t be too nice, don;t get her to say her name..dammit, when did we turn back pages!? )
[10:09:12] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: *Hands on hips!* Well, do you have a name?
[10:10:16] Malachy 19: Walter: Kensington. oO(Dammit, stop being so cute T_T I don;t want you to die again)
[10:12:19] TNGFawe: Serving Girl: It's nice to meet you, Sir Kensington. *Curtsey* My name's Ophilia, and we'll have your bath ready in just one moment!
[10:13:21] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(#$*&! T_T )
[10:13:48] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(We need to get you out of here....)
[10:14:38] Malachy 19: Walter: Very well
[10:14:49] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Lights the fire underneath the basin, and watches the flames crackle* It shouldn't be too long...
[10:15:17] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(Dammit, if I'm mean to her now she'll kill herself. But if I'm too nice... T_T Damn this!)
[10:15:34] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods*
[17:54:30] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Steps behind Walter, untying his brigandine* How long will you be staying here, Sir Walter?
[17:55:41] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(T_T) For quite a while. There is no need, I can do this myself
[17:56:57] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Grasps the cloth firmly, lifting it over his head. Shirtless Walter!* No, it's my job. *Spritely smile*
[18:00:44] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(Don;t get embarassed...don;t get embarassed....) *deep breath* it is quite all right. I'll be fine
[18:03:10] TNGFawe: Ophelia: *Down on her knees, starting to untie his pants!* It's no trouble, really. I-it's a perk of the job.
[18:08:23] Malachy 19: Walter: ;; oO(How horny is this girl...) *puts a hand on her shoulder* I will do it myself
[18:08:35] Malachy 19: Walter: You can leave, if you like. But remain outside if I need you
[18:09:27] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Small smile as she starts to fill the tub for Walter!* It's all right, Sir Walter. Don't be embarrassed because I'm here!
[18:11:32] Malachy 19: Walter: It is all right. oO(I hate my life)
[18:12:50] TNGFawe: Ophilia: Is the water too hot, Sir Walter?
[18:15:44] Malachy 19: Walter: n..no. The water is fine. *gets in* You can be off now
[18:20:14] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Is not off though! Is behind him, cloth in hand, and is starting to lather his back!* It's all right, it's part of my job!
[18:22:59] Malachy 19: Walter: V..Very well....oO(Cute girl....ok really cute girl.....ok fine ridiculously cute girl...washing my back as I sit naked in a tub..)
[18:23:23] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(But not even the fact that she's gonna kill herself soon is apparantly enough for me to forget that T_T )
[18:24:01] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(Stay calm...stay calm...stay calm....Seth is gonna kill me T_T )
[18:24:18] Malachy 19: (maybe her desth turns him on!)
[18:24:18] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Rub rub rub!* You seem tense, Sir Walter...
[18:25:10] Malachy 19: Walter: I'll be fine...
[18:27:09] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Puts the cloth on the edge of the tub, starts massaging his neck* *Giggles* You're kinda nervous, aren't you? It's cute.
[18:28:23] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(Stop that!) I'm fine. oO(Think of something else....think of Tracy....Think of Tracy....Think of Tracy....Think of Tracy...)
[18:28:53] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(*Tracy naked washing him in a tub*) ** oO(Don;t think of that!)
[18:30:17] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Continues the massage, working down his shoulders* You must have been working very hard today, Sir Walter.
[18:32:58] Malachy 19: Walter: *Still hs that image in his head* oO(Ok, new strategy....but that feels really good...) Y..yeah, I was. oO(This could crush her....but....dammit, anything could crush her...)
[18:34:49] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Sleeves rolled up as she works on his lower back* You're quite skinny for a knight.
[18:37:54] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(Ugh....^_^; ) Wh...which is why I am training more. oO(Here goes everything...Good bye OPhilia....again T_T) TO be a better husband for my fiance
[18:39:33] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Hands are out of the water faster than you can say 'Walter Probably Got Wood'.* O-oh!
[18:41:29] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(And here it comes....I'll save you Ophilia, I promise) It's ok, it's an extended engagement.
[18:43:19] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Standing in a hurry, wiping her wet hands on her dirty dress.* I-I'm so sorry, Sir Kensington... I-I didn't see a ring and I... *Sounds like she's starting to tear up* I'm s-so sorry...
[18:44:24] Malachy 19: Walter: Hey, don;t worry. *tries to smile at her* Besides, She can still dump my butt after the year's up if I'm not good enough
[18:48:25] TNGFawe: Ophilia: I d-didn't mean to bother you, Sir Kensington... I-I'll just be going, now...
[18:49:50] Malachy 19: Walter: No, really, it's ok
[18:55:28] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Shakes head quickly, already hurrying for the door.*
[18:57:09] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(There's really nothing I can do, is there? Ophilia...Why?) Opilia? You ever think of leaving Camelot?
[18:58:50] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Shakes her head*
[18:59:31] Malachy 19: Walter: if I told you there might be a way, would you consider it?
[19:02:12] TNGFawe: Ophilia: M-maybe, I don't know...
[19:03:03] Malachy 19: Walter: I mean it. *smiles at her* TO a new kingdom, where nothing was predetermined and you could live your life for as long as you want, do what you want
[19:03:15] Malachy 19: Walter: I'll be here for a while, please consider it, Ophilia
[19:10:06] TNGFawe: Ophilia: *Silently hurries out the door.*
[19:10:21] Malachy 19: Walter: *sighs* Dammit....
[19:13:29] Malachy 19: Walter: Dammit...*Gets out and gets dressed again* This stupid plot keeps on killiing her!
[19:15:00] Malachy 19: Walter: But whay was she even alive again? Did Seth go back a few pages? *sigh* I wish knew how this worked. *opens the door and goes into the hall*
[19:17:01] Malachy 19: Walter: *sigh* Just in case....*Swings by Ophilia's room to see if the door is locked*
[19:17:51] TNGFawe: Door: *Locked tight*
[19:18:08] Malachy 19: Walter: *sighs and goes back to Seth*
[19:22:28] Malachy 19: (he was supposed to meet back at Seth's room, right?)
[19:23:15] TNGFawe: (Eatery)
[19:23:22] Malachy 19: (Ah ok)
[19:23:29] Malachy 19: Walter: *heads to the eatery then!*
[19:25:26] TNGFawe: Seth: *Has food ready!*
[19:25:41] Malachy 19: Walter: *takes a seat solemnly*
[19:31:58] Malachy 19: Walter: *waits for Seth*
[19:34:29] TNGFawe: Seth: *There, eating a light soup with a bit of bread.* Enjoy your bath?
[19:36:41] Malachy 19: Walter: ....
[19:39:57] Malachy 19: Walter: It was a bath
[19:40:21] TNGFawe: Seth: Good, good. Turkey?
[19:41:17] Malachy 19: Walter: Thank you
[19:42:22] TNGFawe: Seth: *Carves some off, adding vegetables and the such to the plate.* Gravy as well?
[19:43:48] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods*
[19:52:20] Malachy 19: Walter: Seth?
[19:52:55] TNGFawe: Seth: *Pushes the gravy boat across the table* Yes?
[19:53:19] Malachy 19: Walter: *takes the boat and pours* How often do your book, um...reset?
[19:53:56] TNGFawe: Seth: Every time I leave
[19:55:02] Malachy 19: Walter: Ah.
[19:56:52] Malachy 19: Walter: *eats his turkey*
[20:22:20] Malachy 19: Walter: I enjoyed today, Seth
[20:22:32] TNGFawe: Seth: I'm glad.
[20:23:02] Malachy 19: Walter: If you don;t mind, I'd like to visit you more
[20:23:13] TNGFawe: Seth: I intend for you to do so.
[20:23:37] Malachy 19: Walter: How often would you like me?
[20:29:22] TNGFawe: Seth: Whenever you have free time.
[20:30:11] Malachy 19: Walter: Well, it is summer vacation, so I have lots of free tim
[20:32:03] TNGFawe: Seth: Whenever you can, then. You need to get stronger so you stop relying on magical items.
[20:32:34] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods* Yes, you're right
[20:32:53] TNGFawe: Seth: Protect others through your own strength.
[20:34:15] Malachy 19: Walter: Yes. Thtough my own strength
[20:37:01] TNGFawe: Seth: *Nods*
[20:37:27] Malachy 19: Walter: I know I've said this before, Seth. But I'm really glad to have you as my brother-in-law
[20:41:01] TNGFawe: Seth: I know you are.
[20:43:09] Malachy 19: Walter: *nods and goes back to eating his turkey*
[20:44:13] TNGFawe: Seth: *Not eating much, Lizzy was cooking for him after all.*
[20:45:03] Malachy 19: Walter: *SHould be starving, but recent events have made him lose his appetite*
[20:48:12] Malachy 19: Walter: *finishes his food and places his fork over his plate* Well, I guess I should be getting home...
[20:48:32] Malachy 19: Walter: Unless there is anything else you have planned for me?
[20:48:37] TNGFawe: Seth: Mmmmhm. I'll take you.
[20:48:49] Malachy 19: Walter: *stands up*
[20:50:13] TNGFawe: Walter: *And, as he stands, he'd find himself outside the book.*
[20:51:25] Malachy 19: Walter: *looks down at the book, then puts it back on the shelf* ....
[20:54:08] Malachy 19: Walter: Ophilia....
[20:57:49] Malachy 19: Walter: *sighs and goes back to his room, lying on the bed. He stares up at the ceiling* ....
[20:59:21] Malachy 19: Walter: oO( Seth: Whenever you can, then. You need to get stronger so you stop relying on magical items.)
[20:59:38] Malachy 19: Walter: oO( Seth: Protect others through your own strength.)
[21:00:06] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(My own strength....But can Ophilia be saved "with my own strength?")
[21:01:29] Malachy 19: Walter: *rolls over* oO(I wonder....if I go to bed will I be able to get to Ophilia's dream? Do character's in a book dream? Will my power even work like that?)
[21:02:46] Malachy 19: Walter: *curls up and starts to weep*
[21:03:34] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(The world deserves your smile Ophilia....please. Don;t deny it to the world)
[21:04:17] Malachy 19: Walter: oO(Just once more, Seth. I will have to rely on a magic item. To save Ophilia...I'll use the cloak)
[21:06:45] Malachy 19: Walter: *exhausted, he closes his eyes and lets sleep wash over him, where he will remain untill Apple calls him on the phone*
