Perpetual Gloom 009b

You find yourself in the hallway with a disgruntled-looking wife, a spider-man and a female Spartacus. [6/13/2013 9:24:11 PM] Kate: Alydia: Hmph. [6/13/2013 9:24:55 PM] Kate: Alain: Whatever it is, it's probably best *not* to get between a caster and the object of her wrath. [6/13/2013 9:25:03 PM] Kate: Alydia: *I'm* a caster. [6/13/2013 9:25:16 PM] Kate: Alain: Not... usually the fireball-throwing kind, unless I've missed something important. [6/13/2013 9:25:24 PM] Kate: Alydia: ... well, no. [6/13/2013 9:25:42 PM] Kate: Tae Li: And now we are working for a lich. *And* a slaver. [6/13/2013 9:26:08 PM] Kate: Alydia, through her teeth: I am *not* a slaver. And I may not be able to hurl fireballs but I *can* make you think you're a slug for a while. [6/13/2013 9:27:18 PM] Kate: Tae Li: Do not even try it. [6/13/2013 9:27:23 PM] Kate: Alain: Do we have to fight *all* the time? [6/13/2013 9:27:44 PM] Kate: Alydia: NO! Tae Li: YES! [6/13/2013 9:27:58 PM] Kate: Cira, meekly: Mrrrrrrrrowww. [6/13/2013 9:29:05 PM] Khiro: Khiro facepalms. [6/13/2013 9:29:17 PM] Khiro: We're not working for a Lich. I told him I would pass the offer on. That's all. [6/13/2013 9:29:29 PM] Kate: Alydia throws up her hands. "I don't even know what your problem is! I said you could kill me when we get Maya back, you're getting *everything* you want." [6/13/2013 9:29:38 PM] Kate: Tae Li: ... not *everything.* [6/13/2013 9:29:59 PM] Kate: Alydia: Well I want to stay like this, dammit. I don't care if it is a lich. [6/13/2013 9:30:15 PM] Kate: Tae Li: Why would you, *your* people allow one among you. [6/13/2013 9:30:42 PM] Kate: Alydia: *My* people don't kill somebody just because he smells like a sandwich that's been left out for six weeks. [6/13/2013 9:32:04 PM] Khiro: ... it was more like a bowl of soup. [6/13/2013 9:32:23 PM] Kate: Alain: ... now I'm glad I wasn't there for that part. [6/13/2013 9:33:06 PM] Khiro: And no one is making you stay, Tae Li. Obviously we need all the help we can get, but I get the feeling you can leave whenever you want. Why are you still here? [6/13/2013 9:33:08 PM] Kate: Tae Li: We are not talking about a demonblooded human or even a vampire. A lich must commit a deliberately evil act in order to become one; everyone knows that. [6/13/2013 9:33:38 PM] Kate: Alydia: ... yeah, why *are* you still here? I thought you were going to wander off, free some slaves and come back to cut my head off.
