Malcolm: I've "almost killed" a lot of people... I wouldn't be surprised if I have to almost kill Scalestride at some point. It is hardly something I revel in.

Trevelian: *mouth twitches when Malcolm mentions him*

Alace: *to Malcolm* Oh. The other dragons, *indicates Chayn and Justice* are dragons, and they were talking about eating people...

Tinsley: I know what you mean...* at me*

Me: Sorry! You'll come into it...eventually....

Simperer: A rabbit? *coughs to barely hide laughter* Oooooh, I'm filled with trepidation at such an abominable idea!

Me: ...hostile bunnies...Aahahaha...

Alace: *looks up at Trevelian* Your name is Scalestride? That's fun to say! Scalestride...Scalestride... ...what's it supposed to mean? *continues saying "Scalestride" over to himself*

Breindel: *sigh* We've forgotten about DawnBringer's and NotThatShortMimetes's characters. And...whoever else was in here...Oh dear. I've forgotten too...Well...if anybody was forgotten, you can talk to me!

*a palomino centaur wearing a green cape trots in*
Ryver: Or me!

Simperer: I know you...you turned--

Me: BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!! Y'all heard nothing!

Trevelian: My family is one of the oldest to settle in Cargan, and the first to tame and ride the Eguiterma and Baryonyx. Since that time, our surname has been Scalestride.

Me: Eguiterma is the Lor-Amaran word for Iguanadon, by the way.

Iluna: True. I apologize for snapping at you like I did. You would think I'd know by now that killing people isn't something anyone revels in.

Mordir: *Shifts uncomfortably*

Chayn: *Nudges Alastair's shoulder* I wouldn't eat you, little one.

Emeer: She just threatens to eat people who tick her off, that's all.

Me: Yeah, because that helps keep the poor boy calm.

Tynx: *Bounds up to Joey* Why do you have purple eyes? I've never seen anybody with purple eyes before. Do you see things funny? Do I look purple to you?

Me: And he hasn't had caffeine...

Mordir: And we don't need to give him any!

Iluna: *Places hands on hips* If you value your life, you should be. My husband could kill you with one arm tied behind him.

Mordir: Now, we might be exaggerating just a bit-

Iluna: Shush, husband, I'm saving your pride.

Mordir: -_-

Iluna: *Pokes finger into the Simperer's chest* I'll show you he can-

Me & Mordir: You'll what?!

Iluna: *Walks away coolly* Be back in a moment.

Mordir: Should I be concerned?

Me: Seeing as how your WIFE has taken initiative to kill a man in your name... yeah, I think you should be very concerned...

Emeer: *Looks at Ryver, then the Simperer* He what? He turned into what?

Me: Shhphtshpthff! It's Abigail's story. You aren't allowed to know.

Emeer:

Joey: (@Iluna) I don't know vampires seem pretty fond of it.

Me: Baryonyx?! Iguanadon?!! My inner paleontologist wants to live in Lor-Amar!!

Alace: *smiles up at Chayn* * at Emeer* She does? *glances at Chayn suspiciously* I hope I haven't..."ticked you off"...whatever that means...

Simperer: I'm being threatened by a woman...how peculiar. Your wife is more easily annoyed than you are, Mordir. How remarkable.

Me: eh...it's not that big of a secret...but...

Simperer: He turned up just before we captured him, *points to Alastair* That's all I was going to say.

Me: Sure you were.

Ryver: Hello everybody! *stamps a back foot in feigned nervousness*

Ilati: *to Joey* Vampire? They sound intriguing.

Malcolm: *whispers loudly to Erronys* The Simperer doesn't count Kaida as a woman, because he knows she's more a man than he is...

Erronys: *rolls over on his back and gives a trumpeting thrum that sounds like laughter*

Melany: *grins and shakes her head at the dragons*

Joey: (@Ilati) If you find aether workers who have set aside their humanity in order to obtain eternal life by joining a fanatical cult and draining the life energy's of others intriguing.

Simperer: Not what I meant!

Alace: *giggles*

Ilati: *to Joey* Maybe I do. My race did ssomething ssimilar...

Me: *just now discovered that Kitra is a published author and wants to read her book(s)*

Joey: ( looks at Ilati with suspicion and fear) Wha... What! Someone get a Templar in here! (Pulling a baseball bat out of the Currier bag at his side.

Justice: Wemembew no fighting.

Ilati: *emits a savage hiss and drops to a crouch, tense as a bowstring. She bares her gleaming fangs in a feral snarl* You threaten me?

Justice:(Emmit's a bright flash of golden light as his cute little voice changes into a deep and commanding roar) I said no fighting. (When the flash of light subsides Justice know stands at around ten foot tall and twenty feet long with a wingspan of about 30 ft) I thing we should all calm down and just be friends.

Max: Yah what he said.

Joey: Fine but ill be watching you leach. (Doing that thing where you point at your two eyes and then point at the person your watching)

Chayn: *Rumbles with laughter* No, little one. It is only the villains that tend to annoy me. You make me happy.

Emeer: See? She's a pretty friendly dragon.

Mordir: *Snorts* She's a girl. What'd you expect?

Me: Whoa, hold on and back up. What is THAT supposed to mean?!

Emeer: *Looks at Ryver* Oh, I see. So, you're like part Humand and part horse. That's amazing.

Tynx: *Is trying very hard not to laugh at Malcolm's comment about Kaida, but fails miserably at keeping a straight face* *Gasps mid-laugh in shock when Justice grows* Dude, he's bigger than Chayn!

Chayn: *Looks up at Justice, impressed*

Erronys: *stops laughing and, still upside-down, watches Justice curiously*

N accidentally went to the same place as the group talking.

N: "What is tha...a dragon?"

PS: I'm new around here. Please don't kill me yet xD

Erronys: *(while still upside down) turns his huge head to look at N and grins wide*

Malcolm: *nods acknowledgement* We are indeed.

Alace: *beams at Chayn* I'm glad. I'd hate to be a villain... * at the monster-sized Justice* Whoa!

Ilati: *scowls at Justice and crawls, reptilian-like, to the far end of the room*

Alace: *to N* Hello! I'm Alastair! Nice to meet you!

Breindel: Don't worry, N. Nobody will kill you. I'm Breindel.

Simperer: No promises...

Tinsley: Ignore him. Tinsley's my name, and you'll fit in sooner than a fish in a lake.

Ryver: *to Emeer* I am indeed indeed centaur. *snorts in a horseish way* is that so very odd?

Aaaand I'm over 20 pages behind!! Haha.. Methinks it might be time to pull my characters out of here..

Justice: Big? (Cocks his head curiously) I'm a runt.

N: Nice to meet you all *N sit down* Well...I don't think anybody can really kill me right now. Not even dragons. I thought dragons were only in history. Fantasy.

Justice: I'm from a modern fantasy setting myself.

Max: Its quite too Quite.

Joey: This is usually the time when vampires come jumping from out of the shadows in Aetheria.

Amy: Or Wakmanchu.

Joey: (Shivers) Don't even joke about that.

Breindel: it is rather quiet in here...

Alace: Vampires? *looks around nervously* There aren't any in here...are there?!

Malcolm: (to Justice) To what size do dragons grow in your world?

Melany: *begins to fiddle with her fingers, looking for something to do*

Justice: Same can grow as long a thirty feet with nearly forty foot wingspans. Ling Dragons can grow much longer as well however they are not nearly as broad and have no wings.

Malcolm: Interesting.

Me: hmm...it's getting dull in here...

Large Spider: *crawls onto Alace's hand and up his arm*

Alace: AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!! *falls over and begins having a panic attack* Aaah!!...Get...it....hhh.....off...hh...me!!!!! *continues panting*

Me: hahaha...I'm so mean to him...

Lily: Ill deal with this (Walks over to Alice, kneels down and places hand on the ground)

Large Spider: (Happily walks into Lilys hand)

Lily: (Sands up and gently pets the spider) Aren't you the little cutie.

Max: (slightly disturbed) Your the only girl alive capable of thinking that.

Alastair: *stares at Lily in alarm, still panting* *pupils are dilated, giving him a haunted expression* *stuttering* Th-thank-k...y-you.......*curls into a ball and rocks back and forth*

Melany: *puts her arm around Alace and whispers* If you blow on them, the run away.

the skin surrounding the series of puncture scars on Alace's right shoulder/neck turns a yellow green
Alace: * terrified and completely oblivious to Melany* The--spider...was..on me. *begins trembling* Th-the--that...s-s-spiderrr.....--was.... *puts his hand up to the scarred area* *pained grimace* *breathing changes to irregular gasps*

Tinsley, Breindel, and Ryver: Uh oh.....

Lily: Oh crap! Give him some space I'm a biology expert! (Tosses spider aside and runs over to Alice) Stay still so I can so I can delude the venom, through biochemical alteration! Max, Keep justice on standby if all else fails we can use the healing properties in true light to alleviate the symptoms!

Justice: (Munching down on the spider) On it! (Turns back into his smaller form and stands nervously next to Lily.

Lily: Joey you as-well! We can use your (Beep!) powers to resuscitate him should his heart stop!

Joey: Um, it was a big spider its doubtful its poison could be that serious...

Lily: Just do as I say!

Joey: Yes ma'am.

Melany: *notices the bite* Is there anything I can do? I'm not familiar with the species, but I am a doctor.

Lily:-_- you'd probably know more than me... I'm just a Bio major in college. Using Aetheric manipulation to cheat a bit.

*Tinsley, Ryver, and Breindel all run over, talking at once*

Ryver: I don't think--

Tinsley: --that the spider--

Breindel: --bit him. He has a relatively new bite wound scar--

Ryver: --from a venomous water monster--

Tinsley: --and its fangs broke in his shoulder--

Breindel) --releasing poison whenever he is scared--

Tinsley: And he is deathly afraid of spiders--

Breindel: --so that is what we think is going on.

Alace: *falls completely over in a seizure*

Melany: Well this complicates things... We need to calm him down, or it will only get worse.

Lily: I can attempt to have his body purge the toxin through Aetheric Manipulation. Or boost his vital energy, however I don't know how this poison would react to the later, it could help or hurt. How does this water creatures poison react to adrenalin? Does adrenalin pump it out or spread it faster?

Tinsley: *to Melany* Calming him down usually works, but how can we get him to listen to us?

Breindel: *to Lily* Adrenaline? I don't think he needs any more excitement at the moment...you could try something--Aetheric, did you call it?--if you think it will help!

Alace: *closes eyes, wincing* ...hhh....aaughhhh.......*wheezes breathily* *continues making small strangled noises*

N: "You are going to kill him with a heart attack if you use adrenaline. Someone have to suck the poison..." *N looks to the spider and start to remember if he already saw that species before.

Lily: Hospitals use Adrenalin to help a body purge poisons faster in many cases -_-. However it will only cause more harm with other poisons by helping it circulate through the body faster. The question is how the poison works to affect the body? What does the poison do? Many poisons are little more than paralytics or tranquilizers others have more lethal intent. Most used by carnivores are no more than the former as it would be dangerous to poison ones own food source. However creatures who use poison as a means of self defense are far more likely to have lethal poisons.

Justice: How can you examine the spider in my stomach? I ate it to stop it from biting anyone else Its fine because ingesting poisons that where meant to be injected wont harm you in most cases. It can but is highly unlikely besides most large spiders aren't poisonous its the small ones you need to look out for.

Max: Is it just me or does our author have a disturbing level of knowledge when it comes to poison. How can his family let him cook for them?

Joey: Mainly because he gained his knowledge of poison from studying biology in general. Also its such a goodie two-shoes he even has trouble causing us harm in his stories. I know this as the Author Surrogate.

Max: And why does Justice know all that.

Justice: Because I'm smarter than you and have nearly 10,000 years of ancestral memories to tap into.

Melany: This isn't really helping! *puts her dark hands on Alace's face* Shh, Alace, shh, sweetie, it's gone, it's okay. Sshhh, breathe, honey, it's okay.

Joey: Well, toss it all, out of the way (Places his hand on Alices bite mark, and a bright light resonates from his hand, after removing his hand the bite mark, puss, and swelling are gone) His body should purge the poison in a few moments.

Lily: What did you do?

Joey: I transferred some of my vital essence to him. Allowing him to obtain some of my regenerative abilities for a short time that will clear up the bite. Then I sent some true light into his system that should calm his nerves.

Max: Ok, I get it, So hes got some of your freaky Shee healing. Then you used the freaky glowy thing Justice does to make him all zin and stuff.

Joey: In essence yes, the healing will only last for a short time though. I'd steer clear everyone, You don't want to be near him when he hurls.

Joey: Was it something I said...

Alastair: *blinks rapidly* *takes a deep breath* I feel different...*suddenly furrows his eyebrows, crawls over to a garbage can and retches* *returns* *smiles innocently at everybody*

Breindel: No, it was nothing you said, Joey! Thank you!! our authoress has been busy is all. *kneels by Alastair* Are you okay?

Alace: It's gone...? this is weird.

Tinsley: What do you say to the nice fey person?

Alace: Thank you, Joey.

Joey: It was nothing . tell me if you start giving off a little to much static electricity, start shot circuiting appliances, :Cough: turn blue :Cough:, anything odd like that.

Alastair: ... ...

Tinsley: Don't worry. You'll be the first to know. Besides me. X)

Ryver: What is this...ahplyans you speak of?

Breindel: appliance?

Joey: You know Microwaves,Toasters, George Foreman's, and the Like.

Max: (Looks at the way the others are dressed) I doubt they know what any of that is.

(Authors note: In Aetheria their are a number of cultures that still dress in older fashions yet have many of the modern appliances we have, Max was raised on Earth so he would be more likely to realize this, despite not being as learned as the others. Well Amy would to but shes probably to busy laughing)

Me: As opposed to Lor-Amar, where Melany can wear a lab coat and be more familiar with skinning a bear than nuking a burrito.

Me: Exactly!

Me: X) or like in ...whatever I decide to name their world, where the only "electrical" device is a torture instrument that attracts lightning when someone is chained--

Alastair: You can stop talking about that now...Worst Day of my life...

Simperer: I enjoyed it...
