Mistletoe yelped as the frosting was hurled at her, her stride suddenly extending as she seemed to accelerate without much difference in leg movement. If Gwen was very observant she'd spot a small amount of snow flakes come from Mistletoe's hoof as she had pushed off of the ground then. Unless Gwen continued to make the frosting or snowball home in on Mistletoe, they'd harmlessly fall to the ground with a splat as Mistletoe ducked behind the mount of giant strawberries. "You can throw back snowballs! That's totally cheating!" Mistletoe exclaimed from the supposed safety of the strawberries, seeming to be in good spirits. While she was behind the pile she looked at the strawberries, getting an idea. 'Let's see her try this then~' She mused as she picked up a honeydew sized strawberry.

Mistletoe would then try and lob the strawberry up high in the air, jump to catch up to it, and then attempt to spike it like a volley ball. A mound of snow in her palm would propel the strawberry towards Gwen, although with how telegraphed the attack was, it was blatantly obvious it was coming.

[color=00c0c0]"No kidding?"[/color] Jinzi seemed impressed, enough to have her turn to face EMily instead of the tv. [color=00c0c0]"Shit, that actually sounds helpful as hell. They sell that where your from or something?"[/color] Jinzi asked, her lower arms still on her hips, while one of her upper arms was on her chin and the other was picking at her teeth.

[color=00c0c0]"So, that's pretty strange to have your dad get you dressed up in maid outfits, not my call."[/color] Jinzi shrugged at Winona's answer. [color=00c0c0]"But hey, still pretty classy I guess. Some like the frills, just ain't for me. Me and Azmot are bounty hunters or mercenaries, whatever you wanna call it. Get to shot stuff a lot, so pretty sodding satisfying!"[/color] Jinzi said as she raised the hand that had been picking at her teeth before flicking it away from the gals, then grinning wily at the mention of shooting stuff.

Gwen pushed herself from the candle with a gravity boost and onto an adjacent candle to evade. At a lower hight than before, she raised her free hand to lift up a mass of cake from below Mistletoe while she was in mid air. She heaved the mass towards her from below.

-----

<color=brown>"It gave us an occupation to do around the manor. The other families that lived there also gave themselves as human resources. Whether that be for farming food or protecting the household. Our family in particular was in charge of the sciences and maintenance. When we worked, we wore our work clothes. When we were studying we would be in our normal attire."
"To be quite honest, the material is usually sold to the military for covert ops specialists. So it's sizably expensive. But thank you very much for the compliment!"
<color=green>"We designed them ourselves." Winona brightly smiled.

And EMily smiled as well.
"I guess we're both passionate about our work. We love the sciences, especially physics!"

Their food was delivered and the girls sat down, their dresses fanned outwards in a polite manner. They began eating, with Sara being the most dainty of eaters.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=cc3300]"So, you really are a princess? I guess that's a pretty meaningless title nowadays, though."[/color] Kirstin said.

 

[Zepherus14]

As the fondant pulled itself apart from the cake, Mistletoe's ears perked up as she heard the faint cracking below her. She would manage to look down with enough time to just barely get herself out of the way, tumbling in the air for a moment as the cake clipped a hoof. She was able to right herself rather quickly however, and although she would be open for an attack by doing so, she started to prance towards Gwen to close the distance between them. "You'll have to do better than that!" She proclaimed happily.

[hr]

[color=00c0c0]"Well ya, everyone does chores around the house... [small]I guess?[/small] But that normally doesn't mean wearing outfits like that, doesn't it?"[/color] Jinzi stated to Sara, not quite understanding the full meaning behind why the maid outfits were necessary, but seemed to just chalk it up to them being from a different place with different customs. [color=00c0c0]"So are scientist maids a hot topic there or something, seems like a waste of money to buy something so damn expensive just to make maid outfits for. Think of the chemical stuff you could buy instead, or whatever you brainies buy to make stuff blow up. Now that sounds like a good use of money."[/color] Jinzi sighed, obviously picturing some sort of explosion in her mind given the look she had.

When Jinzi sat at the table to eat, she spread her wings out slightly to not sit on them. Additionally she wouldn't have the best table manners, eating what would best be described as what looked like a liver of sorts, although alien in nature. [color=00c0c0]"So what did you call that, shrimp? What's that?"[/color] She asked, pointing with one of her hands while the other three picked at her plate.

 

[Slenn]

"Well the original outfits were not made of this. They were made of kona cotton with polyester lining until we were 7 to 18 years old. But when we got threatened by extraterrestrials that wanted to kill us for having the latent power to take down their moon-sized planet absorbing monster, our dad thought we miiiiiight want to have something that's more protective."

Winona tilted her head coyly.
<color=green>"Why would we want to blow stuff up? Although if you're asking if we have science equipment, we have plenty of that. When we get the chance, we'll show you our computers. They can analyze and compute a wide variety of things. Our powers let us analyze things as well."

<color=brown>"This is shrimp." Sara pointed at the shrimp. <color=brown>"It's a shellfish that lives in the ocean. Of course its shell has been picked clean off so that it can be eaten."

OOC: Separating conversations. I'll make my battle post later.

 

[Zepherus14]

[color=00c0c0]"A... moon sized planet absorbing monster?"[/color] Jinzi repeated, before bursting into a snorting laugh. [color=00c0c0]"Oh well of course that would mean you'd need some protection."[/color] She agreed, although it didn't seem like she was really taking EMily completely seriously.

[color=00c0c0]"Oh, wow I have not laughed like that in a WHILE! What were we talking about, oh right! Because the noise they make is always lovely to listen too, let alone the visuals. Why else?"[/color] Jinzi said as she finally composed herself again. [color=00c0c0]"How's that taste then is the important thing. We got some stuff that sounds like shrimp, but some tastes pretty foul if you ask me."[/color]

 

[Slenn]

She chuckled.
"It's the short way of telling the full story behind us anyway. When we're given enough time and interest, we'll tell it, uncut no less."

<color=green>"Well, I suppose that explosions might be fun to watch. Quite honestly if there is one, we're just trying to make sure we're not at the same place and at the same time as one."

<color=brown>"The shrimp? Some people compare it to lobster or crab. It's got a light fishy flavor to it. It has a rubbery and crunchy texture to it. Do you wish to try one?"

 

[Zepherus14]

[color=00c0c0]"Wait shit, you're serious!"[/color] Jinzi's carapace covered arms make a knocking sound as they hit the table. [color=00c0c0]"Well I'll be damned, seems you gals aren't as prim as I thought!"[/color] She laughed, seeming to be in good spirits still.

[color=00c0c0]"Not being next to explosions go without saying, although you'd think your super suits would help with that though?"[/color] She said as she then raised one three fingered hand up. [color=00c0c0]"Ya whatever, lets try one, can't be that bad with it being so little."[/color]

 

[Slenn]

"We got lots of footage of our journey as well on our computers."
EMily and Winona took their time to finish their plates.
<color=green>"It's too bad there's no kitchen here. I sure would love to cook for the people here."
"The food was fantastic though." She breathed in and out before speaking again. "So, where are you from, Jinzi? We're from Earth, in the year 3023 A.D. We live on the continent of North America in a section of land known as the great plains."

<color=brown>"Here you go." Sara fingered out a shrimp that wasn't in the chili sauce, so that the spiciness wouldn't overpower the flavor of the shrimp.

OOC: Gonna head off here in a moment.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"True, for me at least."

 

[Kirke]

Once the sinking boat had reached a steep enough angle, the deck violently burst open, Victoria using the shifting angle to let her put all her weight into a shoulder-check powerful enough to smash through the reinforced section.

Junkil opened his eyes, raising his staff into the air with one hand as he let the excitement of battle rush over him. He swung it, and a gale blew down against Vicky. At this point, however, he was practically hanging, and he had to let go of the staff in order to secure his grip to the railing.

 

[Zepherus14]

[color=00c0c0]"I could be interested in a movie, ya. With what you've been saying it sounds like it should be pretty enjoyable."[/color] Jinzi commented, reaching over to grab the shrimp from Sara. From that angle, Sara would be able to spot a series of small holes going length wise through Jinzi's forearm. It was in the carapace, and given the condition the structure was in, the holes were natural.

[color=00c0c0]"Huh, shrimp ain't bad. Kinda bland but its got a good texture to it. Good for a light snack I guess."[/color] Jinzi said once she finished the shrimp, waving her hand a little as considered what she thought about it. [color=00c0c0]"Azmot was always more of the cook in the relationship, never had the patience to cook much myself."[/color] Jinzi added when Winona talked about the kitchen. [color=00c0c0]"More an eater than a cooker."[/color]

[color=00c0c0]"Earth? Never heard of it."[/color] Jinzi said as she finished her plate, licking her fingers. [color=00c0c0]"No, I'm from Kodriis, a large city atop a huge tree canopy. Pretty diverse community there."[/color]

 

[Drakmorg]

Victoria managed to stay upright against the gale Junkil leveled against her by steadying herself with her staff after piercing it through the deck for stability. Once the gale was over, she planted one foot firmly onto the deck, the the other, managing to stay upright against it despite the steep angle. She began walking up the deck towards Junkil, moving slowly to ensure her footing was always stable.

 

[Kirke]

Seeing his spell fail to really accomplish anything, Junkil began to panic. He tried to focus on joyful memories, to summon a wave of water against the ship. However, he could not bring himself to close his eyes, as fear of his opponent was taking hold. Though it was not immediately obvious, electricity began surging within his body. With no other options aside from jumping overboard, and he couldn't swim, he decided to position himself with his back towards the railing. He hooked his arms around it, and stood ready to kick out at Vicky when she came close.

 

[Drakmorg]

Victoria held her staff out in front of herself as she continued to approach Junkil. In an instant, a slender blade of yellowish light, 25cm in length, appeared at the end she held away from herself. Once in range, she quickly jabbed her forward forward like a spear at Junkil with her left arm, while holding her right at her side.

 

[Kirke]

Junkil instinctively raised one leg to protect himself, and screamed in pain as the blade sliced through it. Losing his grip, he fell forward, bouncing, sliding and rolling across the deck as he clutched his leg. His eyes were once again closed, as he focused on calming himself down.

 

[Drakmorg]

"Well, guess we're just cleaning this up."

Victoria muttered to herself after watching Junkil tumble downward. She turned around to face where Junkil had fallen, then took a few steps forward. She leaped off the wall, pouncing at Junkil and stabbing with her spear once more, aiming to drive her weapon into his torso.

 

[Kirke]

Junkil hit the other railing with a thud, though his fall was somewhat lessened by the water that had just about risen above it by now. He looked up, and saw Victoria leap. In a desperate and somewhat suicidal manoeuvre, he rolled off the railing into the water. As he sank down into the depths, he focused on the people he loved and his memories of them. His hands, still clutching the injured leg, began to glow a deep red and his wound started closing.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=cc3300]"So, what's Ylisse like? You guys got electricity?"[/color] Kirstin asked.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Thunder magic is common, but I can't use it. I'm not particularly gifted with the arcane."
