(08:21:13 PM) Mistress_Janice: DKap, you missed the March of the Delnae!
(08:21:24 PM) Delna: luck!
(08:22:14 PM) dkap: March of Delna?
(08:22:21 PM) dkap: Similar to the March of Dimes?
(08:22:32 PM) Mistress_Janice: With more underscores.
(08:23:27 PM) dkap: Underscores?
(08:23:36 PM) Spot: many of them
(08:26:03 PM) dkap: Is that the music that plays in the background, underneath the action?
(08:26:39 PM) Mistress_Janice: No. That would be _______
(08:26:42 PM) Cagliostro: no, that's when college students get it on in the tunnels.
(08:26:45 PM) Cagliostro: game comma run
(08:26:55 PM) Mistress_Janice: See game run. Run game run.
(08:28:44 PM) dkap: Sorry ... I was trying to find out what the score actually was ... *grin*
(08:30:09 PM) Mistress_Janice: For a bit, we had Delna, Delna_, Delna__, and then Delna___.
(08:31:21 PM) Spot: run game run
(08:31:26 PM) Spot: stop distracting the GM
(08:32:23 PM) Mistress_Janice: I figured that would clear things up, so we could get on with it. Dinner is in process, at whatever castle Janice is in.
(08:32:28 PM) dkap: Right .. bright, shiny Delna.
(08:32:47 PM) dkap: Dinner. Well, delivered, some of it cooking, some of it ... not so much.
(08:33:35 PM) Mistress_Janice: I will try to have fresh strawberries, in deference to Kaylee's preferences.
(08:33:47 PM) dkap: You can succeed at fresh strawberries.
(08:34:05 PM) dkap: And a raw animal, was it decided what type? Deer? Pig? For Spike.
(08:34:09 PM) dkap: Spot even.
(08:34:22 PM) dkap: (I don't know where I got Spike from)
(08:34:43 PM) ***Spot will wake up for food and wonder why they didn't cook it.
(08:34:51 PM) Cagliostro: we have some sheep around for Kintani.
(08:34:56 PM) Mistress_Janice: I don't think it was.
(08:34:57 PM) Cagliostro: So possibly one of those, possibly something else.
(08:35:09 PM) Spot: But will eat it anwyas.
(08:38:56 PM) dkap: There is, also, cooked food.
(08:39:13 PM) Spot: Oh no, they obviously made an effort here
(08:39:45 PM) dkap: Indeed. Just for you.
(08:39:48 PM) Mistress_Janice: Some of us haven't eaten in days.
(08:40:14 PM) Spot: yup. So I will eat my lovely raw animal
(08:40:26 PM) user_ [~chatzilla@c-66-31-25-31.hsd1.nh.comcast.net] entered the room.
(08:40:47 PM) user_ is now known as Meiglan
(08:41:12 PM) Mistress_Janice: If you'd *like* it cooked, we can do so.
(08:41:31 PM) Spot: "Mrgughabl?"
(08:41:48 PM) ***Spot looks up in Lupus form with a mouthful of ...animal..
(08:43:56 PM) ***Mistress_Janice rolls her eyes. "Never mind, don't let me stop you. Enjoy, Spot..."
(08:44:31 PM) ***Spot swallows and rips off some more of the beast.
(08:44:37 PM) dkap: Simon is trying very hard not to stare.
(08:44:40 PM) dkap: No Kaylee yet.
(08:45:05 PM) dkap: Inara seems most at ease with Spot's eating habits.
(08:45:29 PM) dkap: Inara seems like she is just waiting for someone to ask ...
(08:46:03 PM) dkap: Zoe and Jane are in the Bacta tank still growing.
(08:47:04 PM) Mistress_Janice: "Inara, is there aught else I could provide? I'm afraid this was a rather last-minute arrangement, and I'd hate to be a bad hostess."
(08:47:13 PM) dkap: Mal is tucking the food away, quite well.
(08:47:46 PM) dkap: Inara: No, this is delightful. It's not often we get to eat someone else's cooking, in the open, under the sky.
(08:48:45 PM) ***Spot shifts to crinos and leers a bit at Inara, still chewing. "Eating under the open sky is always best, pretty."
(08:49:30 PM) ***Mistress_Janice tucks into her food, famished.
(08:52:12 PM) dkap: Inara nods: "I've always found it so. I do miss my girls, though."
(08:54:53 PM) Mistress_Janice: gm: Do I know what girls she's referring to?
(08:55:20 PM) ***Spot looks interested in the thought of more girls.
(08:55:35 PM) dkap: Nope.
(08:56:30 PM) ***Mistress_Janice asks, "Which girls?" before looking restrained. "I don't mean to raise painful memories..."
(08:57:40 PM) dkap: Inara: Oh, my students.
(08:57:58 PM) dkap: Inara: I left them for (and nods her head toward Mal.)
(08:58:34 PM) dkap: Mal: You left them because some psycho-assassin was using you as bait, and risking them all.
(08:58:40 PM) dkap: Inara: That too.
(08:59:10 PM) ***Mistress_Janice tilts an eyebrow. "I do hope the assassin is no longer a concern?"
(08:59:11 PM) Spot: "Did anyone eat the assassin?'
(08:59:23 PM) ***Mistress_Janice nods with a smile toward Spot.
(09:01:13 PM) dkap: Mal: I killed him.
(09:01:55 PM) dkap: Mal: He wasn't very good, after all.
(09:02:07 PM) dkap: Mal: Book would say, his faith was week.
(09:02:20 PM) Spot: "Well dead is dead. Even if not eaten."
(09:02:35 PM) ***Spot rips off another piece of meat to gnaw on.
(09:04:03 PM) dkap: Mal: I think he's gumming up a power-supply on a place that no longer exists, or something. Brand was trying to explain it.
(09:05:15 PM) ***Mistress_Janice nods. "I'm not sure it can be explained just now. Things are in flux... and different than they were. We've been out and about, trying to make sense of some of it," she glances toward Spot again, "but I don't think we've made a lot of progress."
(09:08:43 PM) Spot: "Yeah but I have a nice sword. Well, not nice sword. Angry sword. Don't suppose someone can finally conjure up a sheath for this hmmm?"
(09:09:19 PM) ***Cagliostro is slightly elsewhere contemplating a mage of uniform cube density and does not hear.
(09:10:08 PM) dkap: Two Mal-attention-spans away, if I recall the distance properly.
(09:10:19 PM) dkap: Of course, that is "Mal without a Firefly" because his is broken.
(09:10:28 PM) ***Mistress_Janice tells Spot, "If not, I'm sure we can find something appropriate. And perhaps a place to stash the ring, too."
(09:11:08 PM) Cagliostro: yes, Mal without a firefly attention spans.
(09:11:13 PM) Cagliostro: as best as can be judged.
(09:11:28 PM) dkap: *grin*
(09:13:39 PM) dkap: Simon, after having quite a bit of the meal, with a question about permission in his eyes, pulls together a plate-full of strawberries, and starts heading in a Kaylee direction.
(09:14:11 PM) ***Mistress_Janice inclines her head graciously to Simon, allowing him to leave.
(09:16:53 PM) dkap: He disappears inside the Serenity Shack with his temptations.
(09:17:04 PM) dkap: (Simon and the Temptations ... we are back to band names ...)
(09:20:14 PM) dkap: After a while of eating, (Inara having stopped, long since) Mal finally slows down, and stops. He ate quite a bit.
(09:20:28 PM) dkap: Spot, you are down to the bone-gnawing phase of things ...
(09:20:43 PM) dkap: It's almost safe for Delna and Meiglan to return.
(09:21:13 PM) Mistress_Janice: "It seems that was needed. I shall try to see that the local hospitality keeps up with appetites more adequately in the future."
(09:22:44 PM) ***Spot sits back on his haunches, and starts dismantling what is left of the animal with a purpose. Eventually he has enough bones, which he murmurs over, and then throws them in the air, and makes note of where everything falls, very seriously.
(09:23:53 PM) Meiglan: Almost isn't totally, but 'twill do. Is doing the returning thing.
(09:24:53 PM) Mistress_Janice: "Let's see, that's one in the planter, two in the hanging lamp, one in my hair, I think one made it into the hallway..."
(09:25:41 PM) Spot: "Don't touch them yet."
(09:26:15 PM) ***Spot hmmms a bit, makes a second round, and then nods. "Okay I'm done."
(09:26:18 PM) dkap: Not quite, they have laid themselves out in a very patterened way.
(09:26:39 PM) dkap: Somewhere Jean is noting another blue spot.
(09:29:06 PM) Cagliostro: yay filters
(09:30:06 PM) ***Mistress_Janice calls it a dinner, and lets folk get back to what they were doing.
(09:33:56 PM) Delna: While they were eating, would it have been possible to get together my advisors and the rep for the rebellions to discuss the extent of the rebellions requests?
(09:34:02 PM) ***Spot starts picking up the bones and looking for a trash can.
(09:34:55 PM) dkap: Indeed.
(09:36:45 PM) Spot: "By the way....are we expecting...anyone? Anything?"
(09:37:32 PM) ***Mistress_Janice blinks mildly. "Not that I'm aware of, but perhaps Father is."
(09:38:13 PM) dkap: You are actually expecting Delna to talk further about the Rebellion.
(09:38:31 PM) Spot: "I just have a sense of danger." He shrugs.
(09:38:58 PM) Delna: I believe we needed to talk further with the Count when he was available
(09:40:47 PM) Delna: Is the Count available at this point, or is he still working?
(09:41:19 PM) dkap: He can be ... distracted, probably.
(09:41:34 PM) dkap: He is often working, and yet, the world often intrudes. Such is his life ... *grin*
(09:44:04 PM) ***Cagliostro is holding an odd cube, in a contemplative fashion.
(09:44:17 PM) Delna: I don't need to interrupt him. I will take the time to talk to above said people and discern the extent of the rebellion
(09:44:48 PM) dkap: (Is this a dagger I hold before me? Ah yes, a mage of infinite jest, I knew him well ...)
(09:45:19 PM) dkap: The Above people tell you it's about 20 in a hard core, and a bunch who are being swayed by their persuasion.
(09:47:53 PM) Delna: I assume that this is not just about a schedule, but about wanting to rule over the humans and take their lives as they please like before and that any arrangement with the humans would still be unacceptable..
(09:49:15 PM) dkap: Indeed. That is it in a nutshell.
(09:49:17 PM) ***Mistress_Janice rises, directing the cleaning up. "Well," she tells Spot, "I can scry the area nearby, and see if anything overt is headed this way..."
(09:49:30 PM) Delna: My proposal for a compromise is that we have specific feeding grounds and anyone within those feeding grounds is able to be fed upon, though not to the point of death as this would surely not be acceptable even to vampire cultists.
(09:49:35 PM) Spot: "Probably a good idea, pretty."
(09:49:39 PM) dkap: Possibly with plans to expand their hold to as much of the populace as they can, as they had done in the past.
(09:50:22 PM) Mistress_Janice: "Can you be at all more specific?" She doesn't seem hopeful, but asks anyway.
(09:50:38 PM) Meiglan: "Dumb idea." About the rebellions, not Delna's idea.
(09:52:08 PM) ***Spot shrugs. "Incoming?"
(09:52:36 PM) ***Mistress_Janice sighs, and nods. "I'll go have a look."
(09:52:53 PM) Mistress_Janice: gm Which castle is this? Do I have a workplace here, or will I have to improvise?
(09:53:25 PM) Delna: If Meiglan voices this opinion to Delna while we are out avoiding the smell of food, Delna will ask her whether she has any thoughts on ways to divert this rebellion.
(09:53:31 PM) Cagliostro: this is a castle set up just for the vampires; no local workspace for us.
(09:54:05 PM) dkap: Yes, that conversation happens between Delna and Meiglan
(09:54:14 PM) dkap: And no real local workspace, no.
(09:54:22 PM) ***Mistress_Janice improvises then.
(09:54:45 PM) dkap: You had set up a little house, a bit away, and was hanging there a bit, but not fully set up, just a few books, a comfy chair, a well-stocked larder ...
(09:55:14 PM) Mistress_Janice: "Mirror, mirror, in the hall, show me what's about to befall..."
(09:55:15 PM) Delna: To Meiglan, "Any ideas?"
(09:55:30 PM) Meiglan: Meiglan believes Delna's plan is fine...the rebellions idea of terrorizing the humans and turning them into a herd is just inviting a human rebellion.
(09:56:18 PM) dkap: Mistress_Janice: Smoke or fog across the water ... something ... trapped underneath.
(09:57:12 PM) Mistress_Janice: I take it there's a sea or other body of water nearby?
(09:57:12 PM) Spot: (Smoke.....on the water....)
(09:57:41 PM) Meiglan: "The rebellion seems to forget that Humans are predators too. We start hunting them, they're going to turn around and hunt us. And I'm willing to bet there's more of them than us."
(09:59:58 PM) ***Mistress_Janice actually wets her thumb and tries to clean the mirror before giving up on the 'fog'. "Either something ephemeral is on the way, or something capable of hiding itself from me. Given recent events, I wouldn't lay a bet either way." She banishes the scrying, and opens a channel to the Count, "Father, something's inbound. Spot feels it's dangerous."
(10:00:22 PM) Delna: To Meiglan, "And the werewolves are a factor too. They are not going to be happy to continue our truce if we start lording over humans and killing them off. And frankly I don't think creating another war-torn society would get us anywhere good."
(10:00:42 PM) Cagliostro: gm: did that penetrate my fugue?
(10:03:10 PM) dkap: You did set your daughter as a priority in your mind, yes?
(10:03:15 PM) dkap: So I expect it would.
(10:04:06 PM) Cagliostro: I did, so it would.
(10:04:21 PM) ***Cagliostro blinks, lowers the cube, and goes to find Spot or Mistress Janice.
(10:04:23 PM) Delna: "Meiglan, could i ask you to go amongst the others in the castle and see what others you can find that are not on the side of the rebellion, any others who would prefer a society formed on the basis of peace?"
(10:05:41 PM) Meiglan: Meiglan nods in agreement. "I don't want to fight with a bunch of Spot's, do you? Do they? " She pauses as Delna asks her question than nods. "Yeah, I can do that."
(10:06:35 PM) dkap: Count: You know right where they are.
(10:07:07 PM) Delna: "I want to see if we can get any others to speak up, maybe change the minds of some of those who can be swayed and see if there is another place to send the ones who want to rule their land the way our last world was ruled, if they don't give us another option."
(10:07:58 PM) Cagliostro: me: Go to Mistress Janice, then.
(10:08:02 PM) Delna: "And no, I wouldn't want to fight with a bunch of Spots *grin*. I would much rather fight with them."
(10:08:13 PM) Cagliostro: "It's Debacle-o-clock, again?"
(10:09:13 PM) dkap: (About half-to Debacle-o-cock's crow.)
(10:10:34 PM) Meiglan: "I have another suggestion...you're not going to like it though."
(10:11:14 PM) Mistress_Janice: "There appears to be something headed this way. I am unsure of the details, it seemed like a fog or smoke - which may have been deliberately obscuring. It felt like there was something trapped beneath it. It's coming this way, over the water."
(10:12:08 PM) Delna: "What is your suggestion?"
(10:12:29 PM) Cagliostro: "Which water?"
(10:12:41 PM) Cagliostro: gm: is there an immediate lake or something in the area? We are in the local Switzerland, IIRC.
(10:13:24 PM) dkap: You are, high in the alps.
(10:13:45 PM) dkap: The body of water was ... quite large, not something you would find in the mountains.
(10:14:02 PM) Mistress_Janice: Any sense of direction? West, east?
(10:15:07 PM) dkap: West.
(10:15:15 PM) dkap: And North.
(10:15:42 PM) Meiglan: "Find out the ones who are willing to compromise...kill the rest."
(10:17:01 PM) Cagliostro: huh.
(10:17:04 PM) ***Mistress_Janice points. "That way."
(10:17:16 PM) Cagliostro: gm: my aquatic friend is west, but not north, and 'over' the water, yes?
(10:17:36 PM) Mistress_Janice: Any chance I was seeing the Sea of Chance, and had my distances REALLY screwed up?
(10:20:14 PM) dkap: Nope.
(10:20:14 PM) Delna: "... ..Some similar options have crossed my mind..but I'd rather not have to take that path. A society built on fear can only last so long. And one born out of the deaths of others I fear would have a similar fate."
(10:20:20 PM) dkap: And it was water-water.
(10:21:21 PM) Delna: "See who you can find that might be willing to compromise and we will talk to the Count about further options."
(10:22:36 PM) Delna: "And thank you for your help in this matter."
(10:23:04 PM) Meiglan: "Not building a society based on fear...you're excising a disease to keep the rest alive." Another pause as Delna continues. "I'll see what I can do....perhaps they'll be reasonable." A brief sharky grin before she starts towards where the others are staying.
(10:23:47 PM) Mistress_Janice: So, the North Atlantic?
(10:24:30 PM) Cagliostro: The northern Western Ocean, at least locally.
(10:25:23 PM) ***Delna seeks out the Count
(10:26:18 PM) dkap: Count is with his Daughter and Spot, discussing, apparently, bodies of water.
(10:28:26 PM) Cagliostro: "Do we have a sense of timing?"
(10:29:04 PM) ***Mistress_Janice looks to Spot. "...imminent?"
(10:29:36 PM) Spot: "Just...incoming."
(10:29:55 PM) ***Cagliostro hms.
(10:30:22 PM) Cagliostro: "Ah, Delna. You had an issue, I believe?"
(10:31:15 PM) Delna: "A bit of a rebellion, yes. Something new going on here?"
(10:32:40 PM) Cagliostro: "Some sort of doom approaching from the north, across the ocean. How impending is your rebellion, on a scale of 1 to 10, where 10 means it's happening now?"
(10:36:23 PM) Delna: "Probably an 8. Unfortunately I don't think this rebellion is going to wait much longer. Days maybe. I certainly can't leave again before taking care of it."
(10:36:54 PM) dkap: I'm reminding Mistress_Janice about the 'Sunlight contingency'.
(10:37:14 PM) Mistress_Janice: gm I know. :)
(10:40:15 PM) Cagliostro: To Spot and Janice: "So would you say this other problem is maybe a 7, or at least that we should deal with the rebellion first?"
(10:41:43 PM) Mistress_Janice: "Have you got an accurate accounting of who the rebellious ones are? We could stack them somewhere safe just outside the wall, in the constant sunlight. Box them so they won't burn, but if I have it right, the sun would force them into their resting state... save the issue for another time, or at least give you time to explore alternatives, without having to destroy anyone just yet."
(10:41:46 PM) Spot: "Perhaps about a 6."
(10:42:02 PM) ***Mistress_Janice defers to Spot on the other matter, not really knowing.
(10:43:02 PM) Cagliostro: "The outside sun didn't seem to have much of an effect on Delna and Meiglan."
(10:43:36 PM) Cagliostro: "It sounds like my daughter believes that this problem has gone beyond negotiation?"
(10:45:06 PM) Delna: "It has been looking that way to me as well. Meiglan is trying to get a more accurate count of people who would be willing to stay here and compromise with our human neighbors. But there is a good majority who wish to overturn things completely."
(10:45:26 PM) Cagliostro: "Hm. Is there a way to trigger this resting state other than sunlight?"
(10:46:19 PM) Delna: "Not that I am aware of..the sunlight still works on them as it is though."
(10:47:14 PM) Delna: "And it did for Meiglan and I before you gave us the charms we used to walk in the light. I'm not sure what all this 'box' would do."
(10:48:17 PM) ***Mistress_Janice shrugs a bit. "I'm not sure it has - I was thinking this would be a way to put the problem off for at least a bit. Though it might also aggravate it, depending on how we box them up..."
(10:48:42 PM) Cagliostro: gm: those charms failed completely, didn't they?
(10:50:41 PM) dkap: Remember the () and the - and the like?
(10:51:46 PM) Cagliostro: ... no?
(10:52:14 PM) dkap: Hrm ... I'll poke through the logs ... a moment.
(10:53:18 PM) Delna: In response to Mistress Janice, "I am worried that it might aggravate things and make the rebellion stronger. So far there are still some people we might be able to sway. If we box up a number of vampires, I'm not sure how that would affect those in the middle."
(10:54:18 PM) dkap: 20100309-dkap_amber.html
(10:56:36 PM) ***Mistress_Janice nods. "Might I ask, who are the rebellious ones? Are they..." She hesitates, and then asks, "...important to your future? Should we be trying to salvage them, is what I'm getting at."
(10:56:56 PM) Spot: [I've got to head to sleep]
(10:57:23 PM) Cagliostro: oho, I recall now
(10:58:10 PM) Cagliostro: "We are obligated to prove them refuge, as a favor to Norton. Not, perhaps, conscious."
(10:58:22 PM) dkap: So, if folks will decide on what actions to take on the Rebellion, (and if you want to discuss it on the mailing list or something, that would be fine as well) so that people can sleep.
(10:58:31 PM) Cagliostro: night, Spot
(10:58:34 PM) Spot: [g'night folks]
(10:58:38 PM) Spot left the room (quit: Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.86 [SeaMonkey 2.0.8/20100914140239]).
(10:59:46 PM) Cagliostro: "Unfortunately, I don't think there's an ethical way of providing them with a world to rule over. Even if such were possible, which it does not seem to be."
(11:00:22 PM) Meiglan: Meiglan is going to try to talk to the other vamps to see who we can sway to our way of thinking, and who we cannot and who are undecided.
(11:00:54 PM) Meiglan: And of those in the groups where her NOS are leaning.
(11:01:00 PM) Delna: "Is there a place we can relocate them to where they will have to fend for their own, possibly in the middle of nowhere?"
(11:01:08 PM) dkap: How ... diplomatic are you feeling>
(11:01:37 PM) Cagliostro: "Not without destroying either them or others. The outside world has a higher mystic interia than this one. As well as no night cycle."
(11:01:57 PM) Delna: gm, to whom was that question directed?
(11:02:03 PM) Cagliostro: "If there were other worlds, we might find one without sapient life. However, the lack of other realms is what has led us all here."
(11:02:14 PM) dkap: Sorry, Meiglan, how diplomatic are you feeling?
(11:03:21 PM) Cagliostro: "The problem with sunlight is that only sunlight inside the world seems to trigger the sleeping, and once exposed to darkover, a resistance to that develops. So we'd have to have some sort of floating container, staying in the daylight... hm."
(11:03:24 PM) Cagliostro: "Workable."
(11:03:32 PM) Cagliostro: "But failure-prone."
(11:04:28 PM) Mistress_Janice: "Are you sure it was exposure to the Darkovan sun?"
(11:04:54 PM) Cagliostro: "No. But the experiment space is limited."
(11:05:19 PM) Cagliostro: "It could have been something to do with the tower."
(11:05:36 PM) Meiglan: Good question, that. Meiglan is not particularly diplomatic, however, she'll point out that if they start killing their prey their prey will start killing them, or hiding. She'll point out that she's a lazy vampire and would rather save her energy for more useful pursuits than trying to hunt down dinner.
(11:05:38 PM) Delna: "hmm, ok. Are we able to consult with Norton on this one? I am afraid if they stay here and do not compromise we can't really guarantee their life span...I am sure that Spot and his pack will not take kindly to the humans being killed off."
(11:06:30 PM) Cagliostro: (jean, on Cagliostro, hears Norton's name and checks the availability of his balance. Still tied up with Faythe's recovery?)
(11:06:31 PM) Delna: "And if it fails we could have rebellious vampires who no longer maintain a regular sleep schedule...a dangerous prospect."
(11:07:04 PM) Meiglan: And besides that do they really want to have other supernaturals breathing down their necks or tearing them open when they start killing off/ terrorizing humans?
(11:07:13 PM) dkap: (Jean: Yes.)
(11:08:51 PM) Cagliostro: (GM: Is Norton available for a question on whether he has any preferences on how to handle ungrateful guest vampires?)
(11:09:20 PM) Delna: I don't think most of them do, and the fear could be enough to keep maybe even most of them in check for a while...but how long before that fear wears off and some start trying the limits?
(11:12:59 PM) dkap: (No, Norton is not available.)
(11:13:11 PM) Cagliostro: (all right.)
(11:13:25 PM) Cagliostro: "A fair point."
(11:14:27 PM) Cagliostro: gm: Cagliostro will examine the local vampires and look for a magical off switch.
(11:14:47 PM) Cagliostro: Or contemplate the possibility of creating local daylight.
(11:16:07 PM) Mistress_Janice: "One problem is that the undead will eventually outlast most any solution they don't impose themselves."
(11:16:57 PM) dkap: (Even Sub-Zero got out at various points ...)
(11:20:13 PM) Delna: "Exactly."
(11:20:22 PM) Meiglan: (So that's what Meiglan is doing, a blend of diplomacy and bluntness to get a solid fix on how many are willing to compromise and how many don't.)
(11:21:32 PM) dkap: Makes sense.
(11:21:36 PM) dkap: Shall we call it a game?
(11:22:01 PM) Delna: I should definitely sleep, so I'm game for calling it a game
(11:22:20 PM) Meiglan: (yeah, my pillow is calling my name)
(11:22:46 PM) dkap: Until next week, intrepid adventurers!
(11:22:58 PM) Mistress_Janice: Sleep well, folks!
(11:22:59 PM) Meiglan: (later y'all)
