Trollslum Cafe LXXXX: X-TREME Trollplaying

[Rai-CH]

"I alre~ady sa~id that I didn~t~!"
And with that Skathi gives one final sigh, then storms out of the cafe. She's really wanting to cull something to ease her mood and the author also needs sleep.

[Araiss]

Adinan's pretty much got to do the same thing, for food, yep. He should have just listened to Charon and stayed away, but at least he didn't get attacked this time. Adinan shakes his head and leaves the cafe.

Zerleg gets up from his hiding spot and leaves. Damnit, that was the shittiest timing ever.

[BishouTaka]

These three return, Spikey still acting...off. Pireke sits on a table,pulling out her hunting knife, and starts sharpening it

((I had to wait for my post to be accepted, so just in case no one saw it...))

Antenc enters the cafe looking a bit disoriented and more than a little disheveled; not that it is unusual for him. He had decided to take a break from his time consuming duty and visit the cafe this cafe, which he had read in several documents. He awkwardly approaches the counter and orders the most caffeinated beverage on the menu, hoping that it will be able to keep him awake for a few more hours of archiving. He'd never tried caffeine before, but he remembers reading about its effects somewhere.

As he waits for his coffee, he looks around the room and comes to a sudden realization: there are other trolls here. He honestly does not understand how he could not have noticed this before. His instinct is to bolt for the door, but reasons that it would only make him stand out more. While in his contemplations, his coffee arrives, causing him to jump. He hastily scrambles the payment together, sets it on the counter, thanks the barista, and finds the table that puts him the greatest distance from the rest of the trolls.

At the very least, perhaps he could make some observations and turn this into a learning experience.

((I hope that I am going about this the proper way.))

Antenc continues sitting in his booth, nervously stirring his coffee instead of drinking it. It was somewhat interesting, watching the trolls come, go, and interact with one another. Other trolls certainly are strange.

[Strider]

And then Horrin.

[Cipher]

Straux walks in and takes a look around. He gives a small wave to the green-blood a nod before going to a booth and snagging a waiter. "I'd like a muffin and some water, please." He says to them warmly. They nod and disappear before returning with his order quickly.

[BishouTaka]

Pireke gives a nod, and Fluffy throws many random obscenities Straux's way. Spikey gives a gurgle, and falls on Pireke's head, twitching.

[Strider]

Huh. A greenblood with puppets and a blueblood with shades.....Well then, this calls for a change in attire.

Much better.

[Moon Redeemer]

Did someone say "puppets"? You're all about puppets, due to the fact that you quite obviously are one! You scurry into the café, diving under a table and waiting for someone to pass by so that you can engage them in playtime.

[BishouTaka]

Pireke zones the fuck out,due to author leaving for orchestra. Fluffy however does notice the puppet, and growls in said puppet's direction

[Cipher]

Straux raises a brow at the puppet, wondering first how the puppets talking, and secondly, where it got such a mouth. He scowls lightly at it before his scowling is interrupted by his order. Grabbing the muffin, he chomps a bit of it off, before looking back to see if the puppet has calmed down.

[Moon Redeemer]

Another puppet is growling at you. You shuffle over to it and stare, growling back.

Grrrr.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

... grr.

And it goes on like this for a while. There is no beating Cherry Woofpaws the Sockpuppet in a growl-off. He is simply the best there is.

[Strider]

And then Horrin looked in Straux's direction. Shade-off anyone?

[Cipher]

Straux blinks as he see's the new puppet enter the fray. "⌠Whaτ is wiτh puppeτs τoday?⌡" He mutters to himself before taking another chomp of his muffin, watching the two puppets growl at one another.

Seeing Strider look in his direction, he raises a brow, and his shades reflect the light perfectly for a moment to produce a single sparkle. For, when it comes to shade offs, he's simply the best there is. That's all there is to really say about that.

[Strider]

And then Horrin stared right back. No sprite for it, but he angles his head ever so slightly so that a spot of light appears and seems to grow slightly in a single spot before disappearing.

It has begun.

[Tekkenfreak4]

A third shaded troll enters the cafe.
He sees Straux first and heads over there, seeing Horrin out of the corner of his eye.
He seats himself across from Straux.

So, puppe7s and shades 7oday? Is 7ha7 7he cafe's 7heme 7oday?

He chuckles.
His shades prevent glare, so a shades-off with him is not possible...

[Strider]

Oh, it's Varnak.

Horrin would like to talk to the guy, but it seems as though he has chosen to speak with Straux. Having a shade-off with someone when someone else is trying to talk to them would be rude, So Horrin simply nods once, surrendering this round with grace before ordering some ginger drink.

[Cipher]

Straux nods to Varnak as he comes in, a grin on his face when he hears him. "⌠Apparenτly.⌡" He says with a laugh before adjusting his shades to end the glinting. "⌠So, how are you τoday, Varnak?⌡"

[Tekkenfreak4]

I'm doin' fine. Haha! Were ya having a shades-off wi7h Horrin over 7here? I didn'7 mean 7o in7errup7.

Varnak will watch the shades-off if it continues.
The author has errands to run but will be back.
((1 hour or more))

[Strider]

Horrin hears about the shades off. He would rather talk anyway, so since Varnak will be unresponsive for a bit due to authorial reasons, Horrin walks over to say Hello.

)))So you know Varnak huh? Does that mean you are into gaming or is this just a shades thing?(((

[Cipher]

Straux chuckles. "⌠I suppose you could call iτ thaτ. I couldn'τ very well back down from such a challenge.⌡" He says with a laugh. He shrugs as Varnak apologizes. "⌠Eh, iτ's harmless joking around, so I don'τ mind inτerrupτion.⌡"

[Strider]

And cue the smirk.

)))I know what you mean, although my area of expertise lies elsewhere.(((

[Cipher]

Straux smiles to Horrin. "⌠ Oh, and whaτ mighτ your experτise be?⌡" He asks, raising a brow.

[Strider]

And then suddenly, he went all serious for a moment.

)))""I am the White Void...I am the Cold Steel...I am the Just Sword...."(((
Dammit Horrin. can't you just give a normal response like everyone else?
