Who: Everyone messed up by the dragon plot, and visitors
Broadcast: N/A
Action: Blue Fish's clinic!
When: All throughout the Solrius dragon plot and through the space flight to the next destination.

[So several RPG characters, a dragon, and two messianic figures walk into a planet.

Everything is suffering and tears, there's a lot of dead people, there's no punchline. But, hey, for the survivors, the Blue Fish's clinic is treating wounds and generally being a decent place to rest and recover and pray you don't see a dragon again. And for those who weren't involved, there's enough people bedridden here that there may just be someone you want to visit.]

I'm sure some planet somewhere's got a big enough conference room. Or an open field, at the very least.

[experiencepoints]

... Llllet's go with the open field. We're gonna be gathering a bunch of mages. Something is gonna get set on fire by the end.

[deviances]

[ Snort. ]

Especially if some of 'em don't get along... I haven't met everyone yet, I've got no clue who should or shouldn't be around whoever else.

[experiencepoints]

Oh, shit, I hadn't thought of that. That's a good point.

[deviances]

Hah. Uh, maybe we could turn it into a gatherin' of some of the mages? Less chance of disaster?

[experiencepoints]

How do we know which ones are okay to invite?

[deviances]

Hell if I know? I mean, maybe the ones who aren't assholes'd be the ones who'd wanna show up in the first place?

[experiencepoints]

Well... I know a few good ones, I can start with them, and see who they can recommend. And drag the Seraphim here along, because they might have some great insights into mana use.

[deviances]

I know... one. Well, maybe two. Well, three, now, countin' you. [ So maybe his smile has an embarrassed little twinge to it for a second. ] Haven't been here that long, and even so, didn't really get out much until recently.

... Then again, that might depend - how're we gonna go about definin' "mage"? There's worlds that don't really use that word, you know?

[experiencepoints]

Someone who uses magic, I guess..? It would be easier if other worlds used a decent naming convention... What's wrong with calling a mage a mage, seriously.

[she's grumbling now...]

[deviances]

[ He breathes out a laugh at her grumbling, shaking his head. ]

Guess some people really like the sound of "witch"? Oh, or "sorceror". I've heard that one before.

[experiencepoints]

Those are completely different things!

[deviances]

Apparently not in some worlds...

[ It comes out slightly sing-song, because maaaybe the whole thing is still more than a little bit amusing to him. ]

[experiencepoints]

Those worlds are wrong!

[deviances]

[ Okay, pardon, now he's laughing. ♥ (Which hurts a little, ow, but whatever, he ignores it~) ]

Looks like if we're gonna attempt definin' terms universally or some shit like that, it might be a pretty tough job.

[experiencepoints]

[SHE'S SO MAD, EITHAN.]

I don't care how tough it is, I'll do it anyway, entirely out of spite!

[deviances]

[ She is, and it's funny~ ]

Hey, spite's a perfectly good motivator. [ Thumbs up! ]
