ACTION Enchanted Forest / Spa Time
WHEN Upon reaching the system (Jan. 4) to leaving it (Jan. 31)

[ It's another day, another planet for the Drift Fleet to explore. Whether it be relaxing in the landing field, checking out the spa (and subsequently getting urged to enter the woods), or taking on the Enchanted Forest's game, there's enough to do for stir-crazy Fleet members.

Just remember one thing: make it look good. ]

[ Hoo boy, his aura must be something to behold. Part-witch, part-demon, all neutral magic nuke. ]

You know what they say about the straw and the camel's back.

[heresyandlace]

[he stands out just a bit--in that way that Tek can't quite decide whether he must be blessed or cursed.]

How can you possibly be in a bad mood with all of this lovely scenery around you?

[and haunting magical residue filling the air.]

[misconceived]

[ To ask Chris, it would be cursed, but who really knows? ]

Definitely beats those tiny ships, yeah, but we're gonna have people all over this place soon. Like you.

[heresyandlace]

[ahh this guy's prickliness is just entertaining the hell out of him.]

You're really so opposed to good company, are you?

[misconceived]

So far not seeing the good part of it.

[heresyandlace]

Well, that isn't very fair, is it?

You've given me hardly a chance.

[misconceived]

[ He raises a brow, finally stands up and brushes himself off. ]

Almost stepping on me wasn't such a good foot to start on.

[heresyandlace]

You can't really fault me for that, can you?

You were practically asking for it.

[misconceived]

If by asking for it, you mean relaxing, then yeah. I guess I was asking for it.

[ Chris is rolling his eyes here. ]

[heresyandlace]

In the grass.

That's where most people walk, you know.

[misconceived]

There's also a lot of it to walk on somewhere else.

[heresyandlace]

Are you always this affronted by people who accidentally cause you minimal amounts of grief?

You must be terrible on first dates.

[misconceived]

[ He exhales, rolls his eyes. ]

Maybe I have other things going on that you couldn't possibly know about. Ever thought of that? [ He waves a hand, almost like brushing Tek away. ] You still here for any particular reason, or...?

[heresyandlace]

[really, Tek should be having pretty much any other reaction to this, right now... but he is still just utterly tickled.]

I'm still here because I like making friends, and you are absolutely hilarious.

[misconceived]

[ No, yeah, this is about the reaction Chris always gets. NOBODY EVER TAKES HIM SERIOUSLY. ]

Excuse me?

[heresyandlace]

Oh, don't look so surprised.

...Surely you must know how you sound.

[misconceived]

Bitchy? Neurotic? High-strung?

[ Yeah, he's heard it all before. ]

[heresyandlace]

Oh, those are all good ones, yes.

Good vocabulary.

[misconceived]

Thanks, I've had time to build it up.

[heresyandlace]

Yes, and speaking of that-- how old are you?

[as if this is a completely normal question to interject with.]

[misconceived]

[ That one gets him a very odd look. ]

I'm twenty-two. Why?

[heresyandlace]

Hmm.

[he cants his head a little--kind of obvious in the way he looks this guy over now, since he seemed not to care much for politeness.]

...You felt older.

[misconceived]

[ Chris pauses at that. It isn't really a surprise that this guy is magic, but Chris doesn't like the idea of someone magically scoping him out, either. What exactly is he reading? ]

You can feel me?

[heresyandlace]

Not intentionally.

You just... tend to stand out, a bit.

[misconceived]

In a way that makes me seem older.

[ It's the demon in him, isn't it. No it's your sucky life, Chris ]
