video. un: G.SLQHV

—Hey, guys! Guess what!

[ Here to break up all the doom and gloom on the network is Dipper, grinning broadly into the camera as he makes a small wave with his free hand. Hovering over his shoulders are none other than Papyrus and Kolitra, as well. ]

Soooo I know we've had nothing but a bunch of bad news lately, and nobody's really sure how to deal with this god business ahead of us... Well, I'm happy to say we've got something good for us! You know, for once.

[Papyrus was hovering over Dipper’s shoulder, but instead now is cramming his skull to fit into the video feed, right next to Dipper’s face. Sorry. What’s personal space.]

POMARR’S OUR FRIEND NOW!!

[ DID SOMEONE SAY DOOM AND GLOOM because hey this guy is here, too, looming. Wearing his full, ominously glowing dreadplate armor. Staring into the camera. He’s significantly less angry than before, though. If anything, he just looks solemn. Subdued. His rough voice, too, is relatively soft; deep and still and drained of the mad despair he had felt when he last spoke on the network. Instead, he seems detached; resolved, but--sorrowful, too. ]

We have convinced her to join ALASTAIR. She has furthermore provided us with instructions. We are to board the restored warship in ten days’ time, at which point we will confront Ryba--and Nalanni, in the bargain.

[ He pauses, and then goes on. ]

Pomarr was clear: once Nalanni perishes, our diminished magic will be restored. It is the only way. She cannot undo it herself.

[ Another beat. ]

I realize that not all of you like this course of action.

[ I.e., the skeleton right beside him, for instance. ]

But it is what must be done. There is no way around it. Pomarr has promised to guide us, but we must ensure that we are ready to face this trial. If you wish to speak, I will listen.

You heard it here first, folks. So how 'bout it?

[ There's a beat, then Dipper finally side-eyes the skeleton shoving himself entirely too close. He frowns slightly, then begins to pull away. ]

Jeez, man, you're too clo

[ And that's when the feed ends. ]


[ ooc: there will be an OOC planning post for the final battles going up this weekend! ]

Unintentional mockery is so embarrassing I can't even consider it... but it is a third option, yes.

Then it's the third option!

... That sounds wrong, as well.

... Irregardless! You should probably calm down! Whatever thing you're worried about will work out fine!

Is that a premonition?

[The askan is so bewildered by Papyrus' staunch optimism that it's thrown him for a loop.]

Far be it for a creature of the damned to see portents of the future. I feel better already.

[It's all as dry as a swirling pile of leaves. Laedo wonders aloud.]

Where were you when the rest of us were wandering without a hope in the world in the tunnels below this island? Such staunch faith would have freed Nalanni of her prison merely by its staunch infallibility.

hes truly a blessing

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-06-01 12:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[He understands about... three-fourths of what Laedo is talking about.]

... If by "premonition" you mean "something that will definitely happen" then yes! It's one of those!

I didn't know anyone went below the island! Or that Nalanni was down there. Wow, she was right beneath our noses all along! I think I was doing something else very important whenever that happened. I'm always doing important things, you see!

...Making important decisions about who gets to join the friends committee?

[Oh yes, time to humour the skeleton.]

I hope you had it in you to bring medallions or other tokens of significance. One can't simply induct a new turn-coat without turning their coat into something brighter for them.

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-06-02 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, like that.

ZOINKS! You're right!! I should have gotten her something!! Well, hopefully we'll see her again in Oska, and I can have plenty for her there!! A cake! A present! Some snails!! That'll be a really good impression on her, I think!

Do you want to help with the preparations too??

[personal profile] asscan 2016-06-02 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
If all goes well, you'll have all the help you can possibly want. I'll bring the pickling juice; Goddesses know she could use some.

We might as well bring the corpse of the Goddess to dance about, I'm sure that will make for a festive activity.

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-06-02 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
What's the pickling juice for??

[ Literally just going to ignore any time any corpses are mentioned at this point lmao ]

The guest of honour.

Trust me, your boneliness, I've a nose for these things.

[Lord, of all the thick skulled fools...]

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-06-02 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, okay! If you think she'd like it, then bring it!

[ If it were possible for him to have sparkles in his eyes, he would. ]

[Just Steven Universe star-eyes it right up in here]

I'm sure she wouldn't mind crow, either, while you're considering your baking.

[There are a few phrases that translate between worlds, not the least of which because Laedo's has inherited humans like a bad rash.]

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-06-02 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
... As in the bird?

[ He doesn't cook... animals, friend. ]
asscan: (Dragon - Grin)

[personal profile] asscan 2016-06-02 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose you could attempt to bake a few harsh shouts into a cake, but you'd need some clever magic to manage that.

[Now that he's leading Papyrus in little circles, Laedo's only interested in seeing if he can spiral him into a tight little pun-hell. It's the only thing to do for someone who doesn't understand a damned lick of the importance of being a staunch asshole.]
boneafide: (pic#10021202)

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-06-02 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
...Hmmm...

[He's... considering it, it seems.]

I've never tried sound magic before, but you know, maybe this is the time to try! Good idea!
asscan: (Dragon - Peer)

[personal profile] asscan 2016-06-04 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Please, broadcast your attempts. I'm sure there are many of us who could use the... tutorial.

[What are you, Laedo, a mean twelve year old girl?

...Maybe in spirit.]
boneafide: (13)

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-06-05 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
I could easily broadcast it! Or, if you'd like, you could simply join me when I'm making it!
asscan: (Dragon - Grin)

=w=

[personal profile] asscan 2016-06-06 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
Yes.... that sounds more than sufficient.

Now move along. There are important things to discuss and shouts into pies is not one of them.
boneafide: (pic#9770166)

[personal profile] boneafide 2016-06-06 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
Nope! This is my post, I'm not leaving! You can, though!
asscan: (Dragon - Pout)

[personal profile] asscan 2016-06-06 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
...[There's a very strong point to that, to be honest. Laedo, giving the unusual creature a double-take, lays his ears flat.]

Very well. Contact me when your ingredients are prepared.

Okie dokie!! Goodbye, friend!
