The words left her mouth before she could even think, the sheer distorted rage in the shadowy creature's Arabic almost overwhelming. "I ... what is this?" And the creature continued to fizzle.

shadow pridak money gang Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 IC: "That is usually what happens when Americans go in foreign antique shops, isn't it?" Adam was about as far from objecting to Des' hold on his arm as he could be, instead giving her a faint grin while they walked. "I think maybe it's a tourist trap. They tell you that, and either you buy it because you're a stubborn American, or you tell people and they all wander into the shop." IC: "Yeah, but can you imagine owning something magical? Wicked cool." She neglected to mention Morgana. Adam had been her friend long before they had started dating, but she had somehow never found the time to bring up the fact that a featureless apparition of Arthur's half-sister was her spirit animal. They began searching out some little antiques shop that a classmate had mentioned to her one time. Apparently she'd found a cool clock there. -Tyler Quote SAY IT ONE MORE TIME TELL ME WHAT IS ON YOUR MIND Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krayzikk Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 IC:"Yeah, it would be." Adam agreed, musing that while he wouldn't really call it ownership, he was aware of exactly what it'd be like. The big, tall, animate manifestation of a Greek Titan was about as magical as it got. Not that he was exactly going to bring that up in casual conversation. Girlfriend or no, 'actually I know about that, I summon Atlas by waving my hands and muttering' was a pretty good way to get tossed in an insane asylum. And probably get broken up with. Not exactly an A+ plan. Quote On this eve, the thirtieth anniversary of that first colony, many are left to wonder; is the world fast approaching a breaking point?

Mel Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 -==IC: Sarah==- Sarah blinked slightly, as she looked at the girl who had waved her over. "Kind of." She looked at the girl curiously, as she wondered what language was best to use here. In an amusing twist of fate, Sarah's Arabic knowledge wasn't quite that good; but depending on how the discussion went, it just might allow her to talk her way through it. She did wonder who this girl was, but she didn't seem too bad right from that moment... [Channah, Streets]No such luck.“Train station...uh...this way,” she said, pointing toward a vaguely east direction. “Go three streets, then turn, uh…” Right? Left? Which one was which?“--Forget it,” she said, and started walking quickly in the right direction, gesturing at the girl to follow. She ignored her cousin’s exasperated honk.

shadow pridak money gang Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 IC: "Ooh, I think it was! Hana mentioned it was something alliterative." The couple walked into the shop, and Des' jaw visibly clenched to avoid dropping. Magic lamps, cool carpets, and other various artifacts were strewn about as casually as clothes across her own dormitory. Antique weapons seemed to be a dime a dozen.

The lilting voice cut through the dusty old store, its source a pretty young man standing behind the counter, body leaning forward as his elbows rested against the old wooden surface. He wore a sleeveless black vest, a choice of outfit that seemed to accentuate his lean, yet muscular and athletic, build. His fingers, pale and long, were steepled together, almost as if he was in wait. He smiled at his two newest guests, eyes twinkling in bemusement at Des' enthusiasm.

Krayzikk Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 IC:"Atlas." The one-word answer was polite enough, as was the almost friendly smile on his face, but Adam was very, very quickly growing distrustful of the man behind the counter. The thinly veiled threat in particular had made his muscles tense up just a little. Des' naming of her own Persona, because if the shopkeeper was homing in on Atlas there was nothing else this Morgana could be, drew his attention, though.Apparently they'd been having something of a mutual secret.
