"Well yeah, I'm not gonna actually do that. It's all fun and games until someone get's turned into a tree or something."

[Ebiris]

"You could offer her your services for a quest or something, perhaps deferred until after our deadline with Lifasa is settled one way or another," Afina suggests. "She already contributed forces to our cause," Bubbles gets a pat on the wrist there, "So we know she's sympathetic. Just make sure to approach her very respectfully."

[Anastasia]

"Delicately and with diplomacy," Bubbles confirms, "Dearie, have I told you the story of the fools who got turned into waves by the Padisha? I mentioned it to Calleigh and it's a sobering tale."

[Ebiris]

Afina looks at her glass, shrugs and tilts it all the way back to her lips and sends the liquid down her throat. "Tell us a sobering tale, then," she invites, leaning on Bubbles' side.

[Anastasia]

Bubbles pats Afina then looks at Calleigh, "This is not a story with a happy ending. So I suggest you listen well so it doesn't happen to you."

[Yuthirin]

Calleigh is listening!

[Anastasia]

A smooth interruption, Elena popping in. "Hi," she says, still winter geared. "We have a potentially troublesome interested party heading to Aurora. Adrian's handling it, but he wants you to be advised. A succubus claiming to be free from evil is interested in Aurora, but its location in Elysium makes approach difficult. She is being sponsored by the Silverbrown Consortium, who has had dealings with Aurora before."

[Ebiris]

"Canderella worked out fine, didn't she?" Afina says. "I don't see any problem unless she's cursed or anything like that. Do we have a name?"

[Anastasia]

"Adrian's being oh what's the word? Prudent," Elena says, "That's it. Her name's Lucy." She then gives Bubbles a wink, "Maybe she'll be competition for you for Afina's delicate heart?"

Bubbles gives Elena a long, cool look and then smiles. "Oh, I suppose it may be. You poor thing, you must be so jealous, Elena."

[Ebiris]

Afina rolls her eyes indulgently at Elena and Bubbles' banter as she tries to recall hearing of such a succubus in the past anywhere...

[19:36] <@Ebiris> roll 1d20+41 planes for Lucy succubus knowledge
[19:36] <Serith> Ebiris roll for Serith < 58 > [d20=17]

[Anastasia]

Elena whirls on Bubbles, hands on her hips. "And what does that mean?!"

Ah, no, you don't recall a succubus with that name and fitting what you know of her.

"Oh, I know you must crave passion, darling." Bubbles smiles like a cat with a mouse in claw's reach. "Since your own live is so lacking in it. No man in sight and doing everyone's footwork all day and all night. It's okay, perhaps I can get you a date."

[Ebiris]

"Galariel's around," Afina feels compelled to say when Bubbles mentions Elena's lack of a man in her life. "Also I've never heard of this Lucy. She might be unimportant or she might be using an assumed name. We'll see, I suppose."

[Yuthirin]

"Who cares!" Calleigh leaps into the air, "Succubus! Not evil! Let's have a party!" And she takes off.

[Anastasia]

"Hmph!" Elena blushes, turning her normally blue color red. "Fine, be like that! You can find your own things, Bubbles." With another hmph! of displeasure, Elena vanishes. As she does, "I'll also have you know that Galariel is amazing!"

[Anastasia]

Bubbles gives where Elena was a less than amused look and clears her throat, "Regardless, where were we?"
