FE 11b part 2

[11/11/2017 11:32:14 PM] Vydea: That's not so bad then.

[11/11/2017 11:32:53 PM] *** Daneel enters the room and heads over to Ander and Vydea. ***

[11/11/2017 11:32:58 PM] Ander: "Grandma claimed they used live goats in her day, but she's kind of a windbag."

[11/11/2017 11:33:11 PM] Ander: "Hey, Daneel.  How's the cat exercising?"

[11/11/2017 11:33:30 PM] *** Vydea chuckles. ***

[11/11/2017 11:33:55 PM] Daneel: ... going ok, I think.

[11/11/2017 11:35:06 PM] Ander: "I was just explaining the intricacies and deep strategery of the great game of goat-ball."

[11/11/2017 11:35:47 PM] Daneel: ... and live goats were involved apparently?

[11/11/2017 11:36:28 PM] Ander: "No, just balls."

[11/11/2017 11:36:43 PM] Ander: "...goat balls...not...balls."

[11/11/2017 11:37:02 PM] Ander: "...and not like...they're balls made of goat, not a goat's...you get the idea."

[11/11/2017 11:37:30 PM] *** Vydea chuckles. ***

[11/11/2017 11:37:56 PM] Daneel: ... seems like a lot of trouble to make a goat into a ball.

[11/11/2017 11:38:45 PM] Ander: "We make the balls out of goat skin after we eat the goat.  You already eat mutton, imagine what can be done with the bits that get tossed out."

[11/11/2017 11:39:46 PM] Daneel: What do you mean the bits that get tossed out?

[11/11/2017 11:41:10 PM] Vydea: I imagine they didn't have a lot of use for goat hide other than... little bits of clothing.

[11/11/2017 11:41:33 PM] Ander: "You guys don't use all the bits like we do.  We take a goat and from that we get meat, pelts for clothes (or sporting equipment), horns and hooves for tools and fur for lining and such.  You guys take a goat, sell the meat and maybe the fur and chuck everything else."

[11/11/2017 11:41:43 PM] Ander: "Honestly, it's disgusting."

[11/11/2017 11:42:55 PM] Daneel: And yet you turned your nose up at haggis the other day.

[11/11/2017 11:43:52 PM] Ander: "...ok, we don't eat all of the goat.  I do not know who would willingly eat a stomach."

[11/11/2017 11:44:13 PM] Vydea: Hungry people. Also apparently duergar.

[11/11/2017 11:47:09 PM] Ander: "...yeah, I could see duergar doing that."

[11/11/2017 11:47:17 PM] Daneel: Growing up in a farming community means most of the good cuts of meat get sold for profit.

[11/11/2017 11:48:14 PM] Daneel: So if we had meat it was usually the off it’s or things like stomach.

[11/11/2017 11:48:32 PM] Ander: "...I'm sorry."

[11/11/2017 11:48:57 PM] Ander: "...I didn't mean to insult you."

[11/11/2017 11:49:56 PM] Daneel: It’s not a big deal, I have had much worse insults and threats given to me.

[11/11/2017 11:51:25 PM] Ander: "I didn't know your family farmed.  Being a magic type, I assumed there was some level of...I dunno...like you did something with books or something."

[11/11/2017 11:53:03 PM] Daneel: The magic is more recent than that, and being chaotic I never went for the structured stuff.

[11/11/2017 11:53:09 PM] Vydea: If it was book learned, he'd probably have better control over it.

[11/11/2017 11:53:43 PM] Ander: True...I honestly have no idea how your...like...how you function."

[11/11/2017 11:54:14 PM] Daneel: Now that seems like an insult.

[11/11/2017 11:55:09 PM] Ander: "I mean, like...the magic I've seen is either my grandmother who talks to nature spirits and stuff and is kind of a kook or folks with the books and the wands and stuff who...are also kooks."

[11/11/2017 11:55:21 PM] Ander: "But your stuff seems more...like you just kind of do things."

[11/11/2017 11:56:20 PM] Daneel: Yes, or things happen on their own, or nothing happens.

[11/11/2017 11:56:51 PM] Ander: "Yeah...I don't get that."

[11/11/2017 11:59:11 PM] Daneel: And I have just accepted it, because trying to not do magic didn’t work, and trying to figure it out wasn’t working either.

[11/11/2017 11:59:41 PM] Daneel: So, I accepted it as it was and moved on not questioning it.

[11/12/2017 12:00:26 AM] *** Ander nods. "Well...if I see anything that might help with that, I will let you know." ***

[11/12/2017 12:01:27 AM] Vydea: It's not so different from mine, probably. I just... convince the world to change for me.

[11/12/2017 12:02:02 AM] Ander: "...that is both scary and kind of awesome when put that way."

[11/12/2017 12:02:46 AM] Daneel: Yes! Like that except sometimes in my case the world fights back with its own changes.

[11/12/2017 12:05:11 AM] Ander: "...so, the important thing to keep in mind about goat-ball is to get a good grip with your toes and not get hit."

[11/12/2017 12:07:07 AM] Vydea: We should try it sometime.

[11/12/2017 12:07:38 AM] Ander: "...no offense, but even without the strength I once had, I feel I would crush all of you so badly."

[11/12/2017 12:08:13 AM] Daneel: And I don’t do sports... at all.

[11/12/2017 12:09:01 AM] Vydea: I might have noodle arms, but I think I could dodge well enough.

[11/12/2017 12:10:21 AM] Ander: "...well, now I feel like this is a challenge."

[11/12/2017 12:10:24 AM] *** Ander smiles ***

[11/12/2017 12:10:45 AM] Vydea: Bring it. I don't think I have a ball, but I have a hand?

[11/12/2017 12:11:57 AM] Ander: "...a hand?"

[11/12/2017 12:12:43 AM] Vydea: Yeah. I kept one from Glyph's place.

[11/12/2017 12:13:05 AM] Ander: "...that is disgusting and I like it.  We'll make this work."

[11/12/2017 12:14:19 AM] Ander: "We will need some more things, but once we have some free time, we will make this work.  Daneel can referee."

[11/12/2017 12:14:33 AM] Vydea: You're on.

[11/12/2017 12:15:56 AM] Ander: "...ok, I've had some drinks, I feel pretty good, time to see what's going on in my room, I guess."

[11/12/2017 12:16:15 AM] Ander: "Have a good night."

[11/12/2017 12:16:20 AM] Vydea: Night.

[11/12/2017 12:16:23 AM] *** Ander gets up and heads for the upstairs. ***

[11/12/2017 12:19:04 AM] Vydea:  So, Daneel... wanna try an experiment?

[11/12/2017 12:20:16 AM] Daneel: ...I am going to regret asking, what kind of experiment?

[11/12/2017 12:20:48 AM] *** Vydea shrugs and smiles. "We go out around back, play with knives a little, and I see if healing you blows us up." ***

[11/12/2017 12:23:16 AM] Daneel: ... it won’t confirm anything, it might happen it might not.

[11/12/2017 12:24:19 AM] Vydea: Has it ever? When it's someone else's magic, I mean. It's just... if we're going to be getting in fights together, I'd like to know if it's going to be an issue.

[11/12/2017 12:25:25 AM] Daneel: You know what? I have probably had to much to drink... but let’s do it.

[11/12/2017 12:25:32 AM] Vydea: Awesome.

[11/12/2017 12:25:45 AM] *** Daneel downs the rest of his drink and gets up. ***

[11/12/2017 12:26:13 AM] *** Vydea leads him out to like... an alley or somewhere kinda vacant. (and is totally not going to shank you in the kidney and leave you there) ***

[11/12/2017 12:28:43 AM] Daneel: Oh yes an empty dirty trash ridden alley... the best place to do experiments.

[11/12/2017 12:30:25 AM] *** Vydea pulls a dagger out and tosses it in her hand. "Ready?" ***

[11/12/2017 12:31:19 AM] Daneel: ...maybe this wasn’t such a good idea.

[11/12/2017 12:31:44 AM] Vydea: I'm not actually going to maim you. Give me your hand.

[11/12/2017 12:32:43 AM] *** Daneel holds his hand out hesitantly. ***

[11/12/2017 12:33:23 AM] *** Vydea slices his hand open enough for like... a point or two of hp damage, but not terribly bad. Then casts Cure Wounds. ***

[11/12/2017 12:37:13 AM] Quill: The spells works as it should! HE doesn't not burst into flames.

[11/12/2017 12:37:44 AM] Vydea: See? Maybe it's just when you do it.

[11/12/2017 12:39:07 AM] Daneel: Maybe, or maybe nothing happened this time, anyway i am going to head back to the tavern before you decide another “experiment” is in order

[11/12/2017 12:39:29 AM] *** Vydea laughs. "Don't worry. I'm all out for the day." ***

[11/12/2017 12:39:49 AM] Vydea: But I think I'll be headed home anyway. Have a good night.

[11/12/2017 12:40:03 AM] Daneel: You as well.
