Elanhil: Kendri gets to pick 5 now, and then Ioanna gets to pick the last one.

Me: Gotta go to school!!

Merashath: Ahem.

Me: Oh yeah.

Merashath: [crouches down and tries to figure out the secret of tynx. his powers of deduction aren't that good. He reaches for his tail]

Me: Wow, we just broke 1000 posts and 50 pages in this thread.

Kendri: Yay! I pick Elanhil's characters, that's two, and then Janin's, Varon's and Rotwuh's... that's a weird name.

Tamera: It's RotW, an abbreviation for Raven of the Wood.

Kendri: Ooh, cool name. So that's five characters. But then there's none left for Ioanna!

Me: I could bring one of my other characters in and then one of the authors with only one character playing could go onto Ioanna's team...

Elanhil @Kendri: I believe I've been picked. Ioanna has her author's and my characters. You cand pick up to 6 from anybody else. (that means you can have Tynx) After you pick, Ioanna can 1 author.(Ioanna, don't exceed 11 charys...) Depending on the amount of charys that author has, you can pick up authors until you have that many charys. This goes on until we've gotten the full 22.

Me: There's a new chary to.

Elanhil: Oh yeah. Syleh. Arias Myles is added into the mix with 1p.

Merashath: [lurches forward and wraps his wing around Tynxes tail]

All right, some organizational help is needed here.

Ionna picked Amanda (4p)

Kendri picked Evening (2p)

Ionna asked for Lady Aris (6p)

Kendri picked Lady Eruwhatever (4p)

Ionna has ten points
Kendri has six points.

Kendri picked Janin (1p) Varon (1p) Raven (1p) and Elanhil (2p)
That leaves Arias (1p) to Ionna.

Ionna has eleven points.
Kendri has eleven points.

We are ready to begin. The Teams look like this:

Ionna's team:

Ethan
Anton
Elkine
Syleh
Tesimir
Cory
Jek
Tynx?
Mordir
Chase

Kendri's Team:

Tamera
Elanhil
Merashath?
Telvia
Aidan
Aurelia
Aaron
Aiwyn
Kian
Sonderan.

the duelers managed to be on opposite teams, so no one has to deal with the confusion of being outnumbered. Just throw balls at them until they're done and then they can come and join in, if they're not too tired that is.
All clear?

Me: 1,005th post. Wow.

Ioanna: I picked Elanhil, but really, I don't care anymore! Just as long as we've got everyone divided into two teams and we've got Mordir.

Ethan: Do I get killed at the end of our story? Is that why you're being so nice?

Me: Ioanna is not allowed to disclose that information.

Ethan: Which means I get killed. Fun.

Me: Actually, I haven't decided.

Ethan: Whew.

Me: That means I still might kill you.

Ethan: Uh-oh.

Me: whoops. Sorry.

Telvia: And you think you're so great clarifying things for people.

Me: I do better with real people. forum pages get me a little confused.

Telvia: Hmph.

Me: if you don't believe me, go look at that nice two page information flyer I've made for auditions tonight so I don't have to explain the same things to everyone and their parents twenty times.

Blank: What about Gavin?

Me: what about him?

Blank: What if you named me that?

Me: I know a Gavin, and he's a jerk. Sorry.

Blank:

Telvia: *Stares in awe at the hawk* Wow.

Blank: Really, first you don't give me a name and now you can't pronounce other people's names or even bother to look them up...

Me: You're a grouch aren't you. Maybe I should come up with a name for you.

Blank: I've only been trying to tell you...

Telvia: *hugs Ariowyn back* I'm glad I'm on your team too.

Me: I hope I spelled that right...

Me: Um.... we make up over half the team. Is that alright?

Mordir: Hey, so long as I'm with Ethan, I don't care.

Me: I know.

Cory: Ah who cares, let's play!

Chase: How balls do we have?

Tesmir: Oh skips the balls and pile 'em all in glass or rubber (whatever that is), everybody needs plenty to throw.

Me: We should probably clarify: no headshots. Those will hurt, and we don't want anyone getting killed here.

Mordir: Not even one?

Me: No. And probably not even if someone else hits you in the face, depending if Elanhil says it's OK. And then you'd have to get an OK form me.

Tesmir: I have only one 'i' in my name.

Tynx: [Tails explodes into sharp needle spikes]Whoops, not there! [Turns and fires another energy ball at Merashath] But you're close, it's right under your nose!

Chase: Does he mean that literally?

Me: Depends on how long Merashath's nose is.

Niarah - (watches Faulkner fly off. Her ears drop in astonishment) Wow. That's . . . impressive. I didn't know elves could do that.

Rahor - I don't think they're supposed to.

Me - Depends on the author and the elf type.

Yay! I'm not the only to suffer your wrath, Lady Eruwaedhiel

eruheran

Elanhil @Telvia: Um, methinks she went to hug Kendri...

Me: Thanks for clearing up Janin. I was a bit confused myself. I'm also lazy.

Merashath:[screeches in pain and quickly unwraps his wing, then get's hit in the chest by the energy ball. He gets thrown back several feet]

Me: I'm not sure about the normal reaction, but that's what happened to Tynx, so I guess it's what happens to merashath]

Merashath: [charges forward and suddenly wraps his wing around Tynxes jaw and nose, blocking off the air passage.]

Elanhil:[tromps over to the center of the court, and sets down the iridescent, ocean, and fire-balls.] What other balls are there again? Oh yeah!! [sets down the gold sparkly ball] Are we still using both iridescents?

Me: *buries herself in the folds of her cloak* I'm going to withdraw from this whole thing until I'm sane again. I thought it was strange that she hugged one of my characters since it was Aurelia Telvia was so taken with, but whatever...

I'M GETTING MY CHARACTERS MIXED UP WITH OTHER PEOPLE!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME???

(I finally need an embarrassed smiley and there aren't any. )

Well yes, he can do that. There are boundaries as to how large of an area the boundary can block. But the answer is more a matter of riddle answering rather than magic. It is quite simple and un-magical to get through.

Kimun shrugs and crouches defensively, his cloak over his face.

Um, climb over the large circular generator in the middle of the room? The barriers only extend up to that height, I thought.

I am referring to Kimun's magical barrier to Faulkner.

Me: *timidly peeks out to make a suggestion*Why don't you just ask that all the balls be evaporated and start over from scratch so that you know what exactly we have? How many balls do you want? *hides again*

Telvia: I think we're kind of on our own here. She's not going to be much help. She's not even working on our story.

Me: Lightning Ranger is much simpler. All I have to do is keep him angry enough to explode at given points in the story.

Telvia: Now then, remember what Melody said about character development?

Me: You are very annoying.

Blank: I'm not annoying. Maybe you can work with me.

Me: *ignores blank*

Telvia: Maybe I'll name you.

Blank: No thanks. I don't want a martian name.

Me: *brightening up* Now there's an idea! Telvia has her own language, and she probably calls you a pet name in it. Something to do with... what do you look like anyway?

Blank: I'm imagining an unpainted wall... You know what? You're worse than my father.

Me: You're finally showing some character. Nice.

Blank: He didn't care about me, all he cared about was my brother. But at least he gave me a name!

Me: cool. What was it?

Blank: I- I- I don't know!!! *bursts into tears*

Me: I think you need to play dodgeball.

Blank: I can't. There will be an uneven number of people again.

Me: all right, as soon as I name you I'll let you find someone to duel with. How about that?

Blank: Really?

Me: yep.

Blank: cool. *draws his sword and starts sparring with an imaginary opponent*

* grins * Kimun loves riddles, and uses them at every opportunity to baffle his opponents. Sorry about that.

More from who?

Kendri: Yay, three-way hug! *gives Telvia and Arionwyn a huge hug*

Me: Are both teams full now? 'Cause I'm totally confused and befuddled. <insert Janin's embarrassed smilie here>

Tamera: I have an idea; it will be very complicated during the game to write that a character is throwing the "blue, green and brown ball", so why don't you authors make simpler-colored balls? Like red, blue, green and white or something?

Me: Good idea!

Kendri: *sees Ciela Rose's characters* *squeaks* Cats!

Tynx: [Snorts what was supposed a breath, and wriggles wildly]

Me: Clever.

Tynx: [Snarls and tries to get his tail around to Merashath]

Me: Scary.

Cory: Having one-colored balls might be easier. we could drop in loads of those, and just have the special multi-colors too. Just a few, though.

Chase: How many do we need?

Me: Enough for the teams to throw.

CHase: Thanks, that was real helpful.

Me: You're welcome.

Mordir: You're wearing long-sleeves.

Me: 'Cause it's cold outside! Honestly, I had a hard time getting myself out of bed this morning, I was so cozy under the blankets.

Cory: At least you had sense enough to turn the fan off.

Me: Yeah, I'm super glad I did. Holy cow, I was cold!

Me: I thought it was getting cold here, but I'm not that cold yet. 'Course, it's only Sept.

Ioanna: I'm cold!

Me: Just wait till January...

Ioanna: I'd rather stay in Sept, thank you.

Me: Thought so. -20 weather not agree with you?

Ioanna: Nooooo!

Me: Right. So get back to captain-ing, or I'll stick you in a frigid land.

Ioanna: Ahhh! Ok, what if we did balls like sunshine, water, earth, fire, etc. That way it's not boring, but still simple. Just, uh, we probably shouldn't do rock. For the safety of participants and bystanders.

Anton: Humph.

Ethan: Whew.

Anton: I want to throw balls at him!

Ethan: Yeah, well I'm glad you can't! Now, lil' bro, go... um, idk. Work! Something! ::lashes Anton a couple of times with a whip::

Anton: Amanda!

Me: Here. ::slingshot and ammo appear on ground::

Anton: Thanks!

::Anton begins peppering Ethan with slingshot pellets::

Ethan: HEY!

Me: You deserve it, for being so.. stupid? That doesn't sound like the right word... my brain's fried with biology. Anyway, don't worry, it'll be gone in the next post.

Ethan: Grrrrr.

Me: Would someone please tell what is going on?

Kyra: You would know if you weren't too lazy to read the last 20 pages!

Ioanna: We're playing dodgeball. Everyone's divided into teams. I'm not sure who all is on my team, other than our charries and Mordir's fellow charries.

Anton: And there are a bunch of balls floating around.

Ioanna: Lets not confuse her with that. I'm team captain, and so is Kendri. I don't know when we're going to start.

Anton: Wanna join?

Kyra: Soooo... it's a game of dodgeball where no one knows who's on what team, and there is more than one ball?

Rhain: Sounds like fun!

Me: I should have known that we would end up getting sucked into this!

Elanhil: Is Rhain playing? Cause if he is Blank can play.

Me: I think I know the answer to Kimun's lines.

Elanhil: Here's a list I borrowed from Janin.

Ionna's team:

Ethan
Anton
Elkine
Syleh
Tesimir
Cory
Jek
Tynx?
Mordir
Chase

Kendri's Team:

Tamera
Elanhil
Merashath?
Telvia
Aidan
Aurelia
Aaron
Aiwyn
Kian
Sonderan.

There are two more players, If blank is in. Let's scratch all the balls.[any balls of Elanhil(author)'s in various posts vanish.] We can have 8 balls now, too many would get confusing anyway.

Me: I'll make a silver ball.

[silver ball appears on center court]

Me: There we go, how the next seven people on get to make a ball?

Elanhil: Sounds good, as soon as all the balls are on, get lined up on your side of the court.

Merashath:[tightens grip] AHA!! I've got you now![Tynxes tail beats at Merashath's leg, as merashath tries to get away from Tynx by hopping on the other one. Tynxes tail hits it, causing Merashath to let go of Tynx and fall down.] AAAARGH!!!

Ioanna: Can I have my sea ball? Pretty please??

Me: And could you maybe, show up in chat? (it's lonely over there!)

Elanhil: Yes, just put it on the line.

Me: Great, I get over to chat, and you're gone.

You could also make pretty balls, like red and gold and just call it red. And blue foamy that's blue. They don't have to be a solid color as long as they have a predominant color that they can be called by for simplicity. We can also make all the balls have a magical air cushion around them that makes them soft as pillows when they hit someone.

Blank: You're really into an idea mood tonight.

Me: Right. Just don't ask me to do anything practical.

Blank: When do I get a name?

Me: I'm working on it.

Me: Pine green!

*a rubbery, wrinkled thing falls out of nowhere and is snatched up by a flying pelican. the pelican fills its pouch with air and blows it all into the rubbery thing, which turns out to be a pine green beach ball. once the ball is inflated, the pelican drops it and flies into one of the post barriers and vanishes.*

Tamera: Wow. That was weird.

Me: *shrug* I'm in a weird mood.

Kyra: You're always in a weird mood.

Me: Hey, what are you doing back here!

Kyra: Well, the other Kyra (pauses to wave to Kyra) is here so I figured I should drop in.

Me: Ok, fine, stick around, but you can't play dodgeball.

Kyra: Fine by me. I'm always first out, anyway.

Rhain: Okay, I'm in!

Kyra: (waves back to other Kyra)

Me: Tintagel

Blank: No.

Telvia: Where'd that come from?

Me: I don't know. Arthur?

Blank: No.

Me: what if you're brother is named Arthur?

Blank: my brother gets a name when I don't? *sarcastic* Sure, that's fair. My brother gets everything. After all, he's going to be king someday.

Telvia: it's all right.

Blank: No it's not. I still don't have a name.

Ruby: *shoves author* I don't want to be in ANOTHER of these things!

Me: But you're my most awesome character!

Ruby: Is that why you torture me so much?

Me: Probably. Anyway, hi everybody. This is Ruby Foxe, sometimes called Foxy. She's a 25 year old police detective in Portland, OR, USA in 2025.

Ruby: Yeah, yeah, and I'm 5' 3" with dark reddish brown hair.

Me: And she hates me. Because I torture her. Physically and emotionally. Her character is actually based on one of my best friends (not intentionally), and strangely enough, I found out that my friend and Ruby have the same worst phobia...after I wrote Ruby. So the book gives my friend nightmares.

Ruby: Poor Samii. She likes me.

Me: I know.

Tynx: [Wobbles a little] Wow, I feel dizzy. No air does strange things to you.

Cory: I know the feeling.

Chase: What feeling?

Me: No air. Most likely you'll experience it too.

Chase: No, I'm already gonna go through other things.

Me: Good point.

Cory: [Kicks sparkly yellow ball at Tynx. Balls pops and disappears]

Me: Hey! Alright, we'll just have a yellow one. [Plops a bright yellow ball down on the field]

Tesmir: Howdy, new people! What's..... forgive my ignorance, what's a police detective?

Mordir: [Nods in acknowledgement]

Me: Hm, is that the first time he's greeted someone?

Cory: I think he's in a good mood, since he's on Ethan's team.

Mordir: Very funny.

Me: So, when do we start playing?

Kendri: *tugs on my sleeve* Can we bring some of the kids from the orphanage in. Please?

Me: [to other authors] Kendri's excited because I started writing her story. [to Kendri] Ok. But they'd better not get too rowdy. *whistles* Come on in, kids!

*nineteen children flood in. Some stand towards the outside of the post looking at all the other characters. A few run up to Kendri and Tamera.*

Tira: Wow. Dis is a weewy big pwace.

Ali: Take your thumb out of your mouth, Tira.

Me: Be nice. And Tira, please don't talk with your fingers in your mouth. Anyway, why don't you two introduce yourselves.

Ali: My name's Ali, short for Aliandra. I'm twelve years old and in charge of watching Tira. *huge sigh*

Tira: I'm Tira and I like kitties.

Tamera: Tell everybody how old you are.

Tira: *holds up four fingers* Thwee!

Me: Right.

Ioanna: Awwww! She's so cute! I like kitties too, Tira!

Me: You do?

Ioanna: Yep. Wellmet, Ali and Ruby!

Me: I think we need to figure out who's on what team again... it seems we've gained at least four new charries that are playing. I'm confused, at least.

Ioanna: You can be confuse. I'm the captain, so it doesn't matter.

Me: But I'm the author, and if I'm confused, then so are you!

Ioanna: Oh...yeah...

Anton: Haha

Ioanna: Grrrrrr.

Anton: Easy, cousin!

Ioanna: I'm starting to resent you again.

Me: No you don't! Your story is on hold, so I don't want you arguing until I get working on it again... that way it'll fit into the plot.

Ioanna: Humph.

Me: No... just two new characters. Blank and Rh somebody-I'm-too-lazy-to-look-up-'cause-it's-midnight.

Telvia: That's quite a name.

Me: Shut up.

Telvia: Be nice. @Tira: Oh, oh! I love kitties! There are some really, really big kitties over there, see? They're going to watch us play dodgeball. Do you want to watch us play? You can cheer us on! And see the cute little fox? His name in Tynx. He's fighting a battle with a really evil winged creature name Merashath, but it's okay, 'cause he can't get hurt unless his author lets him. and the big red guy is Kimun and everyone thinks he's really cool but I actually think he's really serious and kinda boring and I'm going to throw a ball at him as soon as Elanhil says we can start but it probably won't do any good because he has magic. I don't know a lot about magic because I'm really from a whole other world and nothing is quite the same here at all, but blank is teaching me more every day about how to act... human.

Blank: To begin with, humans breath between sentences.

Telvia: *gasps for breath*

Me: Take it easy guys, I thought I was the only one who rambled when it got really late.

Blank: Um... no?

Tia: I'm not pwaying. I is scared of balls.

Me: Thumb.

Tira: *pulls her thumb out of her mouth* Hi, Telvia! *sees Ciela Rose's characters* Kitties! *starts running up to hug the leopards*

Me: *grabs Tira by the back of her dress and pulls her back* Talking cats usually don't like being randomly hugged by noisy little girls.

Tira: Who's noisy?

Ali: *snort*

Tira: I'm gonna watch you all play dodgeball and cheer for Kendri and Mera and the kitties and the little fox and all these nice people and then I'm going to go eat cake!

Ali: Who's baking cake?

Me: I don't know. Tamera, would you bake a cake?

Kendri: I've got dibs on licking the bowl!

Ali: It's getting late. Maybe you should go to bed, Evening...

Sumira - (coldly) Kitties? Really now.

Niarah - Oh, get over yourself, Frosty. I don't mind being called a kitty and being hugged. @Tira; Hello there!

Rahor - I'll just stand over here . . . (distances himself from the kids)

Niarah - Don't be such a canain, Rahor.

Thysal - This whole dodgeball thing is kind of confusing. Who are all of the little humans running around?

Me - Evening's charries. Cute, aren't they?

Sumira - (gestures to Janin's post) Does that person over there have a real name? Or is he really Blank? It's an interesting name, to be sure.

Thysal - (takes off) I'll be up here, guys! (circles the thread from the air)

Blank: No I don't have a real name! Can't you tell? My authors drags me onto this- this- character development thread without even giving me the decency of a name!! It's horrible!!

Me: Calm down.

Blank: Calm down? Why? What is there to be calm about in the face of such indignity?

Me: Don't start acting like Janin.

Blank: *calming down instantly* who's Janin?

Me: He's... a prince. Another character of mine.

Blank: Oh. So you have other princely characters with names. Is he a good prince?

Me: Mhm.

Blank: Then why shouldn't I act like him?

Me: Because I am NOT going to be told that all my characters sound the same.

Me: Maybe I could help you name Blank, Janin. I've got a stash of names lying around somewhere...

Ali: [to Arionwyn] Sweet? I think you mean chaotic.

Tamera: Ali, don't be pessimistic.

Ali: How would you be if you had to take care of the most difficult child in Larenrook?

Tira: I isn't difficult. *sees Niarah* Hi! *runs up to hug her, hits the barrier and starts crying*

Ali: *sighs* I'll go get her blanket. That's the only thing that can calm her down.

Me: Where's Kendri, anyway?

Tamera: She's out picking flowers.

Yes, I would love help naming Blank. I'm obviously not going to get him named without some help. Amanda had a really good suggestion this morning but I can't remember it. So I'm going to go start a thread in in "Naming."

Tesmir: Holy smokes, it's a stampede!

Tynx: Aw, cool, more kids!

Cory: Don't focus on them, you'll get yourself killed.

Me: He better not. I've been more or less threatened to keep him alive.

Cory: By who?

Me: Um, I don't remember. Probably one of the little ones.

Chase: And this is why I won't let you bring Cassie. Do you have any idea how hard it would be to keep an eye on her here?

Me: Yeah, 'cause she's not scared like you.

Cory: That was cold, Aris.

Tesmir: She's got some issues with Chase's series, give her a break.

Me: Thank you, Tesmir. [To Lady Eruwaehiel] I wanna hear the story! Jacy's the one who speaks in his language, right? [While talking, I nudge open a door]

Cassandra: [Explodes through the door without warning] Hi!

Chase: [Jolts backward like someone hit him] ARIS!!!!

Me: Hey, she'll have plenty of kids to play with now. I've tried twice to introduce her, but now she's coming.

Chase: Why?!

Me: Hey, just because you aren't thrilled to have her here doesn't mean everyone else won't. Cassandra (she usually goes by Cassie) is Chase's step-sister. Cassie, meet.... everyone else.

Chase: She's gonna be another Tynx, you know that, right?

Me: No she won't. She's a bit more calm. She's twelve, too. Just relax. She won't be playing.

Ali: *walks back in, dragging an old rag* Here's your blanket, Tira.

Tira: Tank 'oo. *grabs blanket and sucks her thumb*

Ali: Hi, Cassie! I'm twelve, too! What's your story like? What do you do for fun? Where do you live? What's your favorite color?

Me: Whoa there, Ali, take it easy with the questions.

Tamera: I think she's just excited to meet someone her own age.

Me: Tesmir, you think this is a stampede? You should see these kids at dinner time.

Tamera: *winces* Remember when Orim tripped in the lunch line? *shudders* Poor boy.

Me: *comes in, dragging a few of my characters with me* Hey guys!

Ruby: WHY do you have to DRAG us?!!?! >.O

Tiger: *mumbles* Couldn't this wait? I was eating. >.>;;;;

Nebula(real name is Etsuko, but her nickname is Nebula): *whacks Tiger on the back of his head* Oh come on! This is my first public appearance!

Tiger:@_@

Ioanna: Oh my. I hope they don't want to play too!

Me: Can't you just greet them properly?

Anton: Hi, Ruby, Tiger, and Nebula! You're not a real tiger, right, Tiger? Anyhow, that's my cousin Ioanna. She's a grump and is suddenly mad at me, I don't know why.

Ioanna: I am not a grump!

Anton: See?

Elkine: Hello, newbies! Er, new people.

Dianok: Am I the only one to give a dignified greeting? Hail, newcomers. Welcome to our world.

Me: Um, yeah, 'cause I've never met anyone else that talks like you.

Dianok: Is that good..?

Me: I'm not sure.

Tesmir: I can only imagine...

Cory: What was it like when you and your brothers were younger?

Tesmir: Dangerous. All I'm gonna say.

Cassandra: Hi Ali! My favorite color is blue, I like to play outside or play board games, I live in a town in.... where do I live?

Me: Someplace in America. That's still up for decision.

Cassandra: OK. I live someplace in America that's still up for decision. And my story's gonna have a lot of adventure. It's got a tiny key that goes into a lock in the back on the inside of a small chest, and when you turn it it takes you to other places. Like the White House, or a completely different world!

Cory: Breathe.

Cassandra: [Gulps in half a breath] And we have to find six items to make a-

Me: Ahem.

Cassandra: Uh, to make somethin'. So we can get rid of a bad group of people who were trying to get us to get to Daddy because they want the chest and key, and maybe we can save Daddy!

Chase: [Lifts an eyebrow]

Cassandra: Well, he's not exactly my daddy. He's Chase's daddy. My daddy died when I was little, and Chase's mom died, too, and so my mom and his dad got married. But anyway, we have to find six items. Well, Chase has to, he's the hero of the series.

Chase: I'm no hero.

Cassandra: Liar. You-

Me: Ahem.

Cassandra: -do lots of good stuff! I get to go with him a few times, there's this one place... [Looks at me. When I don't say anything looks back at Ali] That's really creepy. It's like a funhouse, but ghosts live in it, and there's no way out, except for the chest and the key. Chase got hurt real bad, but he was so brave!

CHase: No, I was scared stiff.

Cassandra: Whatever. But he was really brave! The transporting between the cabin and the places can be bad. But you get used to it. We're gonna live in a cabin during the story. But the stories haven't started yet.

Me: Not yet. Gotta finish a few things first.

Cassandra: Yeah. So where do you live? What's your favorite color? And what's your story like?

Cory: That's... that's impressive.

Chase: You say that because you don't have to live with her.

Me: Lighten up.

Tesmir: Hey, the new people are back!

Mordir: [Watching all the kids with slight nervousness]

Me: Oh, the things I could say....

Mordir: Don't you dare.

Cassandra: Whatcha playing? Can I-

Me: No. You'll sit and be a good girl and watch Chase play. Alright? Maybe you can play a game later.

Cassandra: OK. YOu gotta win, OK, Chase?

Chase: Uh, sure...

Me: Well, we've talked enough. Gotta finish a blog post. Ya'll stay here and hang out.

Nebula: Hi guys! ^^

Tiger: Sadly, I'm not a tiger. It would be SO awsome to be one though!

Ruby: THAT would be a total disaster! >.>;;;

Tiger: WHAT?!?!!? >.O
