[ fred's listening to the radio on his headset, ok. he's really into it, with one headphone hanging out on his shoulder. ]

[cabot]

[ meanwhile this classy drow fucker is sitting up near the front of the plane, sipping some alcohol. yep. most people probably haven't even met him or seen him around the castle much, but here he is. ]

ota!

[bluffcheck]

[Take off was rough on Thoster. He's done a lot of traveling, but flight is not something he was really prepared for. Now that they've settled into their altitude, he's a bit more himself, but more on edge than he'd like to admit.

Mostly, he's stealing glances out the window and trying to tell himself that if the bastards wanted him dead, they could have done it on the ground.]

[valdrin]

[ val'drin's watching him from his seat across the way with a look of mild amusement. ]

Some fey wine could calm the nerves.

[bluffcheck]

Aye? I'll try anythin at this point.

It's not natural to travel like this. Man's not meant for the sky.

[valdrin]

You're talking to a member of a species that lives underground. [ he hands him a bottle :| ]

[bluffcheck]

[BIG OL SWIG OF THAT]

I suppose this is where you tell me you get used to it?

[cabot]

{ FORT SAVE BUDDY ]

Oh, I don't know about that. It still terrifies several grown men I know.

[bluffcheck]

[FORT SAVE 19. THIS AIN'T HIS FIRST RODEO.]

Let's not be too hasty, friend. I'd never say I was terrified.

[Because that hurts his delicate dastardly endearing image.]

[cabot]

[ damn bro, you ain't kiddin'. he doesn't even feel anything... ]

Did I say you were?

[bluffcheck]

Yeh implied it, so don't act like I'm so far off.

[But he laughs and takes another large drink. This time his Fort Save is only 11, so obviously the drink is already weakening his defenses.]

So how long until we see solid ground again?

[cabot]

Not long at all. Just a hop and a jump to our destination. Wait until you're traveling to the other side of the world.

[meta]

[Deadpool's sulking.] I don't know why I couldn't keep my guns with me. They bring me comfort. Like a security blanket.

[nepotism]

You'll see them on the other side, you know. It's just a two hour separation.

[meta]

But what if they get lonely? We've never been apart for this long before!

[nepotism]

Maybe they'll meet some sexy nun-chucks in storage.

[meta]

I need to stop using such slutty weapons.

[nepotism]

Maybe don't pick 'em up at the bar next time.

[meta]

Well it's not like I was planning on getting serious! I just wanted something to fling and they seduced me.

[nepotism]

That's how these flings always go.

[meta]

Never again, I tell you. [He shakes his head despairingly.]

[nepotism]

[ he slaps him on the shoulder ] It's a hard lesson learned, but you're more of a man for it now.

[meta]

Like my Bar Mitzvah all over again.

[nepotism]

Oy vey.

[chiakiyoshida]

[Chiaki is just going to be over here in her own thread because what the fuck. Even when she doesn't change, it's still hard to sleep through the night of a full moon, which means that she is way too grouchy for her own good right now.

Still, she's trying gamely to study up on her spells, even with all the ruckus happening around her. She's scrolling through what looks like a bunch of text-y things on her iPad, occasionally making a gesture or two.]

[cabot]

[ and her dark elf companion misinterprets her moodiness entirely ]

Technology getting the best of you?

[chiakiyoshida]

[Totally not helping Chiaki's mood there, Cabot.] That's not something that's likely to happen to a technomage.

[cabot]

Oh, I don't know. I would think you were opening yourself up to more frustration when your machine inevitably freezes.

[chiakiyoshida]

Anyway, I've got my spellbook on here. And a copy on my mobile, and on my laptop.

[Yes, she has all three with her, are you surprised?]

I'm trying to study spells, but it's a bit hard to concentrate properly with that lot fetishising weaponry.

[cabot]

[ he glances over his shoulder ] It's all they have in the way of hobbies, sadly.

[chiakiyoshida]

You'd think they'd prefer something more like Angry Birds.

[cabot]

They take out all their anger on live targets instead.
