Pretty much Ari, but the closer it is to 4, the more likely I'll be too tired to discuss anything.

Right. I'll probably poke you sometime in the afternoon tomorrow/later today cause right now I feel like passing out any minute now. @_@

So I /was/ going to attempt to make a post just now, but holy fuck I am tired.

Na'lsa may find it wise to retreat into her hole before I do something...incredibly...stupid.
*Not going to write it, but Kadia is mad with me for not writing a "Fullmetal Alchemist Pride vs. Hohenheim" scene.
Hohenheim vs. Pride

I will be up to writing and all first thing tomorrow...today...
CMU Tomorrow...

Na'lsa is a guy. Or an "it".

Also, CMU tomorrow.......???

I'm kind of waiting for other people to come up with a brilliant plan to defuse this, otherwise Diogenes is going to make everyone a martyr, and that won't be any fun. :X

CMU operates on a different time bubble than the rest of the world, where midnight is at 3 am, and morning at 10 am. XD
As said, I'll write tomorrow...

Well, Dante has the option of either punching Dio or punching Lev, neither of which seems to have a nice ending.

And nah, it's not "tomorrow" until 6 am.

...This is the part where Rurik and I take our leave like good little rogues...

My gods, curse the grinch for being so green!

*whispers* There's nowhere to run.

Tarja has no problem sniping at authority when she feels it's warranted, but she's not terribly proactive. Not right now anyway.

*goes to read post*

But why run? Dinner is just getting started. I fear it would be missing something if you were to duck out.

And dessert is to die for! :X

Aye, dessert is to die for. And we have some simple finger-foods as appetizers.

Will try to do a post soon-ish; been doing emotional nope-ing the past couple days.

Baby steps...

I am dying at the jokes.
Anywho, I posted.
"Tun in next week to see the answers...same Tris time...same Tris site!"

*psst* Tarja, not Tanja.

And you guys were supposed to be defusing the situation *whiiiiiiine*

Going to have to pull out my trump card, here, I think. :X

If only we had Shealtiel. He was always good at putting things in perspective. :|

...Well, Kadia is looking for a way to defuse it...but I lack enough of an understanding to poke around Na'lsa/Lev's aura...

I'm not entirely sure there's a way *to* defuse it, though if this is Messiah Na'lsa he might be able to make more of a case for himself.

*Does not follow, but assuming Na'lsa is an actual figure...looking up*
Could a side be forced back into recession by combined efforts?

He's not. Messiah Na'lsa was where he ended up in the last RP after consuming the saint and the priest, changed him significantly.

And I'm fairly certain Na'lsa is willing to live and let live, it's Diogenes who's the problem. He'd sooner die than let a demon go free under his watch.

If worse comes to worst, I can always get him killed too. :P

...and slaps myself in the face...
Dang it, Lewis!

But if you put a demon in recession by force, you can exorcise it later, right?

Whyever for?

Grab a mirror and write nalsa...

Oh you figured that out. :P

Yeah...
*Is a complete idiot*

In your defense, Salone told us that way back when he introduced him.

That, and haven't touched that series in years...and I freely admit that I lack several memories of my childhood. *Shrugs*

Never read it, myself.

I prefer Tolkien myself

I've never cared for child protagonists, even in my own childhood.

Quite honestly, I think "characters you can relate to" are overrated as a rule.

I'll admit my mind tends to make such characters automatically in their 20's - a 14-year-old killing man-sized rats in a barbarian rage is a bit ridiculous.

Ah, the old heroic pest exterminator...

Haha...yeah
Come to think of it, many of the things I read/played/saw that involved more than 1 world started as "pest control" plots leading to a "Wardrobe transition" to the other world...
...and yet there is no trope for that...

I was thinking more of how most Dungeons and Dragons type games have you spend your first character level killing rats in the cellar of the tavern. Glorious business.

...
Where did the ash come from...?
Also, sorry for poofing...
