2nd Chant - Attack of the Dog Lord

[reluctantbastard]

Who: Alistair Theirin and you
Broadcast: no
Action: SS Blue Fish and the Iskaulit
When: August 9th - end of the month

Hair of the Dog - August 9th to August 24th

SS Blue Fish

On the morning of the 9th, the Blue Fish is going to be a little rowdier than normal as two very familiar looking dogs run around the ship. Accompanying them is an unhappy looking snow leopard that isn't able to fully outrun the bigger beasts. The amount of barking, hissing and running is unusual as they prance around the entirety of the ship, especially outside the room of a certain mustachioed mage.

Maybe someone should page their owner. :)

SS Iskaulit

Free of the confines of the smaller ship, Alistair-the-Mabari finds that running around the larger ship is fun. He spends time outside of the pool, the now abandoned mountain grove, the bars and restaurants. He is lugging around a ball, covered in drool. But anyone adventurous enough to try and approach him will be roped into a very vigorous game of fetch.

Come on. Don't you want to play with the happy doggo?

August 25th

After over two weeks of being a happy mabari, Alistair's augment rights itself and he's back to a person, but it's time for a rather long nap. No matter what anyone does, he will continue to sleep. And as he does, his face will get leaner and lines will start to form around his mouth and eyes. His hair will get darker from lack of sun. And anyone who sees him without a shirt on will notice there are more scars on his chest and arms than before.

[OOC: Hi, everyone! Alistair is going to be a doggo for a while before getting a canon update to the end of the comics. He will wake up on the 1st of September, but until then he will be having fun with Kiter and Riona.]

Comments

For as small as Freya was, she was also very durable and familiar with the feeling of being trampled by a four legged-creature that was at least twice her size. Her brother had collided with her more than once as a wolf and it was honestly a pleasant memory, even tinted by loss.

She rolled to her feet and pat his head.

"I guess you don't need anyone. You seem smart enough." Freya smiled at him. "You hungry? I was thinking of getting something to eat and I'm sure I can find something for you too."

She paused thoughtfully. "It'll probably taste awful though.

[reluctantbastard]

He likes being told that he's smart. Please continue to compliment him that way. It's still rather rare, despite the fact that he is, in fact, a good boy and good person. And rather intelligent as well. If he does say so himself.

And he does. Sometimes.

Ah, she's getting up now. And offering food? Food's good. Look at his sharp, pretty teeth. There is some meat on the Blue Fish. You can take him home, right? Please, no protein gel.

[luckyescape]

Freya will give him compliments if he earns them and call him stupid whenever he does anything dumb. "Yeah yeah. Let's find something that doesn't suck. Though I'm not actually sure where to do that." She really didn't like the food here.

"What about you? Do you know where something that doesn't suck is?"

She isn't above following a dog towards food. Though his nose is likely as keen as her own.

[reluctantbastard]

Wow, excuse you, Alistair is... Well, he's not perfect and he says a lot of dumb things that he doesn't think through first. It's probably a good thing he's a dog right now so that he doesn't destroy the illusion that Freya seems to have built up around him.

He's a good boy.

He barks at her reply. He's spent enough time on the Iskaulit as his human self to know that the Space Bar is really going to be his jam anyway. And, well, without demons.

Follow him. Nami and Vash are okay.

[luckyescape]

Freya didn't understand his barks but it seemed like he knew what he was doing so she was going to follow him. Nothing weird about that!

Her steps were light and nearly silent as she moved at his side. There was a lightness to her movements that made her appear more graceful than the average person though it might be a trick of Alistair's doggy senses.

"Follow the leader, the leader, the leader. Follow the leader, wherever he may go."

[reluctantbastard]

While he likes Nami and she appears to like him, he's not so sure what her take is on animals. Best to figure it out now and get it over with.

With assured steps, Alistair confidently leads the singing girl to the Space Bar, walking up to the bar and sitting before it. He looks ready for a drink by a bar stool, tongue lolling out the side of his mouth as he waits for Freya to take a seat and order something.

[luckyescape]

Freya followed behind him and then took a seat next to Alistair at the bar. This was not the weirdest thing she'd walked into a bar with.

"Okay. Hey two beers and food. I don't care what food. Meaty and surprise me." Hopefully that was enough because she was looking back down at Alistair once the order was in. "You're getting a beer. You look like a beer dog."

[reluctantbastard]

Wow, excuse. Alistair is a handsome dog.

At her comment about beer, he barks and wags his tail again. Beer is good. Yes, yes it is.
