Hey, Brave Vesperia members- Zack here. I know that Estelle talked about disbanding the guild, but I think there's still a need for what we were here to do for the village. Karol left us all betters, and I got the feeling that disbanding isn't what he would've wanted. Maybe I'm wrong, but... it just doesn't feel like it.

Either way, I want to keep the group running, and I know I'm not the only one, either.

If you disagree and wanna bow out, that's fine- no hard feelings or anything. Just let me know which of you are going to stick around, so we can update the roster.

For everybody staying in the guild, we've got a commission job from the SOS Brigade! So keep your eyes peeled for the details, and I'll try to get them ASAP.

Light! Wanna meet in the Battle Dome this afternoon? Got a little surprise for you.


[Today (aside from, hopefully, a bit of afternoon fun with a certain lovely lady) Zack will be hanging out around Good Spirits, mostly, either working at the bar as usual or chilling outside, trying to teach the most wretched looking dog ever to live (AKA "Just Dog") how to fetch. And probably failing miserably. Why won't his dogs ever fetch 8| This is obviously Daisy's fault.]


[[ooc: AND AND AND guys you don't have to do a thread with Zack if you don't want to or would rather leave it assumed, but either way PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE everyone comment OVER HERE to say who is staying in BV. I'll have an ongoing roster for a while and announce it a few times, too. I don't want anyone to get accidentally kicked. Thank you!]]

[ WEIRDEST GUY SHE'S EVER MET, OK.

For a second all she does is hold that blank look before she seems to finally snap out of it, blinking rapidly with widened eyes. ]

-- What? [ RECOVER, LIGHTNING. Her back straightens. ] No, you just-- had a weird look on your face a moment.

[ Slight wry smile goes here?? She turns toward the front again, bringing a hand up to her lips briefly as she considers the play in retrospect. For a girl that can be pretty prone to impulse and combativeness, she sure does think a lot, doesn't she? ]

[wingenvy]

[Yes, yes she does. He puzzles over her expression for a moment, then shrugs and stands up to stretch his arms over his head. He's not in a rush, but he knows these programs end sooner or later, and he didn't set it to last for much longer after the play ends. They'd look a bit silly if the seats below them disappeared.]

So, what'd you think of it then? Was it a good choice?

[thestormishere]

[ Amendment: it'd look silly for the 0.26 seconds it took to somehow turn falling into a backflip. But in any case, Lightning follows his lead a moment or two later, making sure to gather up them flowers, of course. ]

Yeah. [ To the last question. Ohman she kindofsucks at praisingthings. Her realization of this fact shows clearly on her face before she amends: ] Honest.

[wingenvy]

...Well, I'm glad, then. [He smiles back at her, starting to lead the way towards the exit, though at a pace where she can easily walk beside him if she chooses. (Then again Light could catch up even if he was moving at a dead run, but whatever...)] Actually, I was kind of worried since it was the only one I could remember ever seeing before.

[thestormishere]

Hm. [ She considers that a moment, head tilted and expression more serious. Very serious. Don't let the icon fool you. ] It was kind of lacking in car chases...

[ ... Her sense of humor = still as bone-dry as fucking ever. ]

[wingenvy]

If you feel that way about it, next time I could always take you on one of my old training missions. They're about as exciting as it can get.

[thestormishere]

Training, huh...

[ Oh Zack, why do you encourage her with this kind of nonsense? Now she's starting to get ideas. ]

Can you drive a velocycle?

[wingenvy]

[....Um.]

Is it anything like a motorcycle? Because I've driven one of those, but I don't even know what a velocycle is.

[thestormishere]

-- Ah. You mean... one with wheels?

[ Oh thank goodness she at least kind of knows what he means (emphasis on the 'kind of'). ]

[wingenvy]

Uhh, yeah. You mean they come without wheels?

[Because dude, dude. That sounds awesome by default.]

[thestormishere]

[ She actually pulls her head back a little at that, staring openly as she shifts the flowers over her arm. After a moment, however, she smiles at him slightly, still sporting a notable hint of incredulity-- and maybe just a liiiittle bit of deviousness. ]

Well... having wheels probably means they'd just be stuck on the ground, right?

[wingenvy]

Yeah, definitely. I- ...wait, you have something that isn't?

[thestormishere]

Maybe you call them something else, but... yeah. [ Small huff of breath! ] In Cocoon, velocycles use the same AMP technology as airships, so- they're pretty different than 'motorcycles' in that regard.

... You'd have a pretty hard time finding a group of kids without at least one of them itching to get their hands on a license for one.

[wingenvy]

Whoa, you think we could ride something like that in the dome here? [Because that would be beyond awesome and would totally make his day forever okay.]

[thestormishere]

If I can figure out how to program it.

[ Which shouldn't be too hard. ... Probably.

Regardless, he can sure bet his ass she'll be trying to figure it out now! After all, she may have... a little bit of an invested interest in returning the 'provide happiness' favor.

... Okay, maybe more than a little. ]

[wingenvy]

Programming isn't that bad- if I could figure out how to do all this, I think a bike should be easy for you. Assuming the system can handle it, but I get the feeling it can.
