HAUGHTY! Bask In the Victory! [Video]

[dragonspooker]

Guess someone's hide is a little chapped over their fun being ruined, judging by the lack of food in the cafeteria. Not that those bar things were worth eating to start with... I'd say it's worth goin' without, though. To you guys that figured it out, good work. It's worth celebrating, 'cause it means we're not completely helpless here!

Please tell me beer doesn't count as food.

Video

[halfpintsorceress]

Well, given that there's a big fat lot of nothing down there right now...

Re: Video

[puppy_lancer]

W-what about the trunks? The food we have in our trunks is still there, right?

[Most of the beer, though, had already been consumed.]

Video

[halfpintsorceress]

That, I dunno. I never had any food in my trunk, so I can't say.

Re: Video

[puppy_lancer]

Tch, if they touch my beer, I'm gonna kill them.

Video

[halfpintsorceress]

[At that, Lina scoffs.]

Well, if you find a way to get to 'em, let the rest of us know, alright?

[Her tone's mostly sarcastic, but there is a bit of amusement in there over this guy's priorities.]

Re: Video

[puppy_lancer]

Still working on it. Not even all the chaos with the monster in the library was enough to get them to come up to the tower.

[It was easy to prioritize the beer when you didn't have to eat to survive.]

Maybe if I called Saber along...

Video

[halfpintsorceress]

Well, it's already been figured out that it'll take more than brute force.

Re: Video

[puppy_lancer]

I'm not gonna serenade them if that's what you have in mind.

Video

[halfpintsorceress]

I mean that others - myself included - have tried to blast, smash, cut, or use whatever we had handy to try and make our way to Jason and the others without any luck.

So far.

Re: Video

[puppy_lancer]

Really? Even throwing stuff down the elevator shaft?

Video

[halfpintsorceress]

Thing is we can't even get the doors to their elevator to open. I've thrown every spell in my arsenal at it and got nothing but pain for trying.

Re: Video

[puppy_lancer]

So it just all goes back to getting them to come to us. When was the last time they did that?

[A pause.]

...You're a magus?

Video

[halfpintsorceress]

I guess when they took a bunch of us into pods, but they didn't take all of us...

Eh? I'm a sorceress. Never heard that spin on 'mage' before, though.

Re: Video

[puppy_lancer]

So they only come out to dick with us, and then only when we can't fight against them. Shit.

[He scratches his head.]

I've never heard of sorceresses before. Sorcerers, yeah, but not sorceresses.

[Even then, sorcerers/wizards were a rare breed.]

[blackwitch]

Wha-t, are the people running this place really that petty..?

Video

[halfpintsorceress]

Seems that's the case! [Lina's all too amused at this - it means that it IS possible to get under Jason's skin.]

[blackwitch]

And here I thought we actually had some competent people in charge! Well, I can't say that they aren't creative, but they could at least think of a better punishment then!

[halfpintsorceress]

...you must be new here.

[blackwitch]

I saw what they did with switching people around and all. La-me, all people did was running around like idiots! That was only a little amusing!

[halfpintsorceress]

[..."amusing". That's certainly not an encouraging choice of words.]

Well, they're capable of much, much worse - and it's not for our entertainment.

[blackwitch]

[ Evatrice has a really, really weird idea of what's amusing.. ]

Who cares if it is or isn't? If they just do something I can find amusing either way, then that's fine!

[halfpintsorceress]

...

[And moving on into even more unsettling territory...]

Lemme guess - you're actually having some kind of fun here, aren't you?

[blackwitch]

[ there's a tiny pause, but then she just starts.. well, practically cackling. ]

Oh, so you finally figured it out..?

video;

[justiceerror]

...Maybe everyone will starve.

Heha..!

Video

[halfpintsorceress]

[...well, that's an awkward thing to hear...]

Can't say I'd wanna do that - some people are planning to go creature-hunting, I think, so hopefully that won't be the case.

Video

[justiceerror]

Heehh...? So they'll kill?

Video

[halfpintsorceress]

Well, we don't really have much of an option with there being nothing in the cafeteria.

[Video]

[jellyfishbrain]

But how are we gonna celebrate without real food?!

[Video]

[halfpintsorceress]

Well, we'll find a way, Gourry. There's creatures we can hunt, and... I know it's odd to say this, but I'm almost okay with going without for a bit if it means we managed to get back at Jason.

[Granted, her tune will likely change once she gets hungry and cranky...]

[Video]

[jellyfishbrain]

Really?

[He's skeptical. Very, very skeptical. He eyes her suspiciously, uncertain.]

Are you sure you're not the Shadow Lina thingie?! Or maybe you're not feelin' so well!
