Red Strings. You know the Drill.

[lightning_strike]

This isn't funny. I've already been reprimanded today because we have a male in the middle of the witches quarters. Can anyone tell me how long I'm going to be stuck like this?

[She holds her finger up where the pinky is attached with the red string, and Perrine looks extremely cross.]

I am terribly sorry, miss...

Re: [Action]

[lightning_strike]

[A sigh] well I suppose it's all right, considering we know one another.

[Action]

[archangelofderp]

A woman would have been better for you...

Re: [Action]

[lightning_strike]

I suppose so, but it's not too bad. Considering you've been good to me and all...

[Action]

[archangelofderp]

I suppose there is little I can do but make the best of it.

Re: [Action]

[lightning_strike]

True. Since we've been slightly exiled from the quarters, let me show you around.

[Action]

[archangelofderp]

Ah, I'd like that very much!

[Tours are always nice.]

Re: [Action]

[lightning_strike]

All right. Well let's start with the main rooms. We're on a witches base in the strait between Britannia and Gallia, or as some places call it England and France. The view is pretty nice, but Gallia is occupied by Neuroi right now.

France has bad luck with that... I really should speak to its patron saints sometime.

Re: [Action]

[lightning_strike]

You can do that? [Surprised. Could he actually help out here?]

[Action]

[archangelofderp]

Well, of course. Where else would the saints be but Heaven where we angels reside?

... whoa.

[now she's seen everything. Not really but...]

So... you are THE Michael of the Archangels then?

[Action]

[archangelofderp]

The one and only... I guess that's not true with other universes, but I am a Michael of the Archangels.

Re: [Action]

[lightning_strike]

I... wow. That's incredible. I've never met one of the angelic host before.

[Action]

[archangelofderp]

Please don't stand on ceremony. For the moment, treat me as you would anyone else tied to you.

Re: [Action]

[lightning_strike]

Ah I see. Thank you then. It makes it less awkward.

[Action]

[archangelofderp]

Of course! No need to cause any more problems for you.

Re: [Action]

[lightning_strike]

Mmm. Definitely.

Well there's a lot of good things here, although most of our efforts are towards the war. We're unable to communicate at all with Neuroi and they seemed to have attacked us many times over the course of the worlds history.

[Action]

[archangelofderp]

I see... But this is the worst so far?

Re: [Action]

[lightning_strike]

The worst of it has actually occurred in the middle European countries, such as Karsland and most of Orussia. They haven't moved out to Liberion but that's because Neuroi aren't good in water.

[antibadstuff]

Experience says between 1-4 days. Which I'm with you, major problems.

[Action]

[archangelofderp]

Neuroi, what are they like, exactly?

Re: [Action]

[lightning_strike]

Aggressive. They sport mechanical weapons and a core beneath their armored shells. But they range from complex to simple and in huge sizes too.

[lightning_strike]

It gets worse really. Commander Minna has instituted a no-socialization with the men policy.

[Action]

[archangelofderp]

And there isn't any way to talk to them? Do they talk to each other?
