"If the magic is at all a problem, I can help in that area. I happen to be a bit of an expert in white and black magic, especially those that involve taking and giving life."

"A simple storage container is mostly going to be about the materials and not the execution. Crystal us usually a good container for energies, though physical life energy is more complicated - you probably know better than I do. If you've only kept it in yourself, perhaps using an organic storage method is superior. I may be able to try creating a dense mesh of plant tissue and hold that in an amulet or something. I've been hoping to build a greenhouse adjacent to my lab, I've got a few plants around here but if I could collect some more from Simic and Selesnya land, some more exotic breeds... anyway, I'm sorry I've started to ramble, the point is I think plant matter is the medium of choice, do you think that will work if it's well compacted? It's effectiveness would be dependent of the species of choice, and I don't really have the equipment for heavy splicing."

From somewhere in the facility, off in the direction of the kitchen Erin's voice booms out "THIS IS TOTALLY AWESOME."

by Lapis-Lazily Fri May 10, 2013 12:08 am

"If I recall correctly, there is a special kind of vine cultivated by the Golgari that can leach the life of those nearby and store it in a large root. It's kind of like a potato if they stored life force rather than starch. I suppose if we could get past the danger inherent in harvesting such a plant, the root would make an excellent storage container."

by **Kindulas** Fri May 10, 2013 4:08 am

"A root huh? That makes sense. How do you propose we get one?"

by Lapis-Lazily Fri May 10, 2013 9:41 am

"Well, I'd prefer not to make any more enemies right now, so I would like to inquire if they might be willing to sell me some of the roots. If not, they may be willing to part with some for a favor."

by **Kindulas** Sun May 12, 2013 7:19 pm

"It's plausible, they don't listen to Orzhov propaganda, so they might not hate you."

by Lapis-Lazily Sun May 12, 2013 8:53 pm

"The fact that the Orzhov hate me, if it even matters to the Golgari, is much more likely to make the Golgari more rather than less receptive to me. The guilds may not constantly be at each other's necks like they were before the Guildpact, but they still aren't fond of each other."

by **Kindulas** Thu May 16, 2013 11:04 pm

"Well, I think we should start by asking Sebastian - he might know people, you never know with him."

by Lapis-Lazily Thu May 16, 2013 11:48 pm

"Perhaps. I think we should find Erin as well, before we talk to Sebastian. She's far too likely to get into trouble if left to her own devices. Childlike curiosity is both a wondrous and dangerous thing."

by **Kindulas** Fri May 17, 2013 12:23 am

"Ye- wait, where did she go??" Jess sighs. "Lets check the kitchen."

by **Nehiel Mori** Fri May 17, 2013 2:13 am

From the direction of the door leading out Erin can be heard yelling "ADVENTURE TIME!"

by **Kindulas** Fri May 17, 2013 2:19 am

"Oh dear," Jess says, and quickly follows the source of the noise

by Lapis-Lazily Fri May 17, 2013 10:32 am

"Ah, to be so young and excited."

Volker follows, matching Jess's pace.

by **Nehiel Mori** Fri May 17, 2013 3:25 pm

"JESSICA! WE ARE GOING ON AN ADVENTURE!" Erin yells, her voice louder as she searches for Jess.

by Lapis-Lazily Fri May 17, 2013 9:15 pm

"And where might we be going, young one?"

by **Nehiel Mori** Fri May 17, 2013 9:21 pm

((Shes not actually here. Shes yelling throughout the house))

by Lapis-Lazily Fri May 17, 2013 9:41 pm

((Fine. Volker yelled that last line))

by **Kindulas** Sun May 19, 2013 7:03 pm

"Ooooh dear..." Jess sighs, and quickly walks in Erins's direction

by **Nehiel Mori** Sun May 19, 2013 7:37 pm

Upon finding Jessica; Erin firmly grabs her by the arm and yells out "ADDDDDVENTURE!!!!' Then sprints off, dragging the cybergirl, towards the exit.

by Lapis-Lazily Sun May 19, 2013 7:47 pm

"Erin, please do be calm in the matter. Jess and I have business to attend to. We can't just go gallivanting off on some random adventure."

by **Nehiel Mori** Sun May 19, 2013 8:07 pm

"AAAAADVEEEENTUUURRREEE!!!"
((+10 to athletics to drag Jessica along with her. While pulling her, pull up the gene sequence of the horse and gain a +20 to moving quickly))

by **Kindulas** Mon May 20, 2013 6:42 pm

Natural. 20.
Erin drags Jessica to the stairs in a blur - then, upon reaching the door frame to the stairs, suddenly slows down like she hit a wall of honey. "Erin, You can't just-" Jeeves tries to say - However, before he can finish Erin breaks though whatever barrier she hit. Jessica grabs on tight, not wanting to be hit against the ground going at far-too-many miles per hour. "PUT ME DOWN ERIN!" she screams as they break into the upper-cathedral.

by Lapis-Lazily Mon May 20, 2013 7:01 pm

Volker rushes after them, but his speed just isn't enough. He stops breathless at the top of the stairs, panting.

"Erin! This... is... ridiculous!"

by **Nehiel Mori** Mon May 20, 2013 8:02 pm

"Ooookay!" Erin say's happily after Jessica requests to be placed down. Gently, with whatever touch of grace the young shapechanger has, she places Jessica down on her feet and brushes her off.

"Can we still go on an Adventure? I was reading your books! They are full of so many interesting things like... swimming! I want to try swimming. Swimming sounds fun."

by **Kindulas** Tue May 21, 2013 1:49 am

Jessica stands up, shaking. "E-Erin... y-you can't just haul people off like that, okay, I haven't had breakfast, or showered, and I mean, you just can't... you have to ask people about things first!"

Jeeves quietly enters the room. "That was incredible speed, Erin," he says. "But truly, you must not be so impulsive."

by **Nehiel Mori** Tue May 21, 2013 1:54 am

Erin's mouth forms into a small circle as she lets out an audible "ooooh." She turns to Jessica and with shame spread across her face. "I'm sorry Jessica... I'll ask you next time..." she says, before walking towards the stairs with her head slumped down.

She stops before reaching the stairs; and her head snaps up. Turning, she jogs over to Jessica and says with a smile "Hey Jeeeeessss... once you are ready can we go exploring?"

by Lapis-Lazily Tue May 21, 2013 1:57 am

"I'm sure that can happen later, child. As for me, I have important business to attend to here, before we go. I need to speak with Sebastian about certain contacts."

by **Nehiel Mori** Tue May 21, 2013 2:15 am

"Very well. I plan to... what was that word... retire. Yes! Retire to my chambers I think I said that right. And read. I like reading. Please come and get me once we go to do anything exciting!" Erin says, and skips off back to Jessica's room to hunt down more books.

by Lapis-Lazily Tue May 21, 2013 2:21 am

"I find it quite funny to hear Erin using terms more often used by older generations with otherwise youthful speech. Jeeves, I dare say she might be picking up the wrong words from us. Then again, I do currently look to be in my twenties. How people might find my more archaic colloquialisms if I actually spoke to more than just our unusual crowd. Now, Jeeves, do you know where I might find Sebastian?"

by **Kindulas** Tue May 21, 2013 2:49 am

[Wait wait first Jess responds]
Jess chuckles. "You sure perk up fast among other things. "And thanks, that would be appreciated. Anyway, as far as adventure... Umm..." Jess scratches her head. "I mean I guess I need to... and Sebastian... but then..." Jess just looks at Erin. "I'm sure it'll do you a lot of good. Sure Erin, let me get ready and go. Jeeves, any chance you could not tell Sebastian we left if we're back before he wakes?"

Jeeves sighs, "I have not known you to act without Sebastian's approval, Jessica."

"Well, I'm worried he'll say no, and I'm more afraid of Erin bouncing off the walls cooped up in our home than Sebastian being mad at me."

"That," Jeeves responds, "is an excellent point. In fact, if presented with it, Sebastian might just chase you and Erin out - so I'll act in his stead and authorize your excursion. Unless that makes it less fun for you," he says with a smile. "And Volker, Sebastian does not wake until nightfall. If you need to speak with him, perhaps you'll just have to pass the time keeping an eye on these two?"

by Lapis-Lazily Tue May 21, 2013 2:55 am

"I suppose so. Though, I think Jess can handle Erin better than I can. Perhaps another round of chess?"

by **Nehiel Mori** Tue May 21, 2013 3:14 am

Erin waits patiently for Jessica to get ready to go, though she herself changes out of Jessica's pajamas and into her normal attire. She also takes the time to re-sequence her genetic pool.

(Spending a magic point to shapechange. I'll make the post tomorrow.)

[[[I thought you were annoyed at how much we split up?]]]

by Lapis-Lazily Tue May 21, 2013 8:36 pm

[[[What am I to do? Erin is just waiting for Adventure, and Jess is going to keep her under control. How about we just say day stuff happens and then go straight t speaking with Sebastian at night.]]]
