 CA: Hey Sami...

 CA: I have to give you your medicine ok?...

 AA: Oh. Okay.

 -- chessAficionado [CA] injects the medicine --

 CA: Hey, I'm gonna tell you something, and you may not like what you hear...

 CA: ok?...

 AA: (( Sorry, got some work stuff. Be back in a sec ))

 CA: ((kk))

 AA: (( Back. Sorry about that. ))

 CA: ((no probs :) ))

 AA: ...you didn't like the drawing of us being Super Awesome Best Friends, did you?

 AA: I knew the perspective was off on that one.

 CA: no, that was awesome...

 CA: It's about...

 CA: Doir...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Why? What's wrong with Doir?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: He, went to prospit, and tried to fight Jack...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: What?! By himself?!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: But he isn't dead...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Oh, thank goodness.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: he's on Derse now...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: On Derse?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: from what I gather, we were right about the two lives thing...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: What's this about two lives?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: His awake self died, and now his derse self is still alive...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: remember? we talked about it when you returned...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Ughh. I think it's the medicine. Things aren't sticking in my head super well right now.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: So Doir's alive....but he died?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Exactly...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Wait, does that mean Dean's still alive somewhere too?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: no, it seems Jack, finished the job with Dean...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: But....so does that mean he's going to be going after Doir on Derse?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I don't know...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: This is SO not cool, Beau.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: I don't....I don't know what to do about this. We can't let Jack keep killing people! Even if they ARE alive afterward!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I know...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I know that but...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I don't know how we're supposed to do that...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Yeah. I can't lose anyone else, and if we attack him head on one of you might get hurt.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: And I can't do it by myself, and getting myself killed won't save anyone, so *I* can't go after him either...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: None of us want to lose anyone Sami...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Maybe he's got a weakness? Like some sort of kryptonite.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I do know of one thing...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: that pocketwatch...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Pocketwatch?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: it's like a power amplifier...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Oh....like Balish's panflute. Or Katie's....thingy.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Yeah....maybe that's something to think about. If we could break it or take it from him or something.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Plus, there are other things...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: kate can do that time thing, and you did that thing at the smokestack...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Yeah....but we still barely know how to do those things.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Oh, Beau! Do you think you can do something too?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Based on the theme of these powers...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I can probably do something... lighty?...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Yeah, Jossik thought they might be tied to our titles, and Balish seemed to confirm it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: So you probably CAN do something lighty!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I don't really know how to go about doing it...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Well....I figured out how to do mine when I was panicking because I couldn't breathe...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: ...maybe if we put you in a dark room?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: But I guess that'd only work if you were afraid of the dark.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Are you suggesting you subject me to sensory deprivation to force powers out of me?...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Well not if you don't want to.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: I was just trying to think what worked for me and how we might make it work for you.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Maybe it'll just come out on its own, though.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: It probably wouldn't work if I willingly did it...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Maybe you're right.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: If I ended up in a dark room against my own will perhaps...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Jack's way stronger than us even if we do all get powers though, I'll bet.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: I mean sure, Teamwork will make a difference, but will it be enough?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: We would have to train...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: That smokestack was proof enough...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: we all fight as seperate enteties...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: we need to fight together...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Yeah. We've gotta be a team.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: I borrowed this book from Libby that has some stuff in it I'd like to try out. Maybe next time we get in a big fight like that, I can be more useful.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: What book?...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Just this book about art stuff. I haven't read enough about it to be sure of all the details, but I think it might help....if I can figure it out.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Might make me able to actually DO something with paintbrushkind.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Instead of just being kind of a useless girl with a useless weapon fighting monsters that are way out of her league.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I don't know, you were pretty sweet in that fight...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I could probably help you make some sweet weapons...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: omg a scythe brush...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: -_- As long as I'm cursed, I'm afraid everything I try to put in my specibus will turn into another of these 3X SMILEDOG SABLEHAIRS.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: I told you I made like three more of them on accident, right?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Oh yeah...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I still have to talk to you about that *I didn't forget everthing*...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Libby thinks it affected the "programming of my sylladex." Or something.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Shit really?...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: I don't know. Something like that.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: I guess I'm all glitched out right now. And the Colonel said the sweater was cursed.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I have an idea...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: But I didn't get to ask him more than that before the fight.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: we just have to get really creative...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Think about Aura, you saw how awesome she was!...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: She didn't even have to use her specibus to do it...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Yeah, she was totally awesome. Riding that imp like some sort of dragonrider...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: So think like that, "how can I be awesome and useful, when I'm not fighting"...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Yeah. That's why I think this book might help. I won't be able to smash things up, but I might be able to make you guys able to smash things BETTER.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Oh really?...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Maybe. I'm still figuring it out.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Plus, not everything is about combat...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Yeah, but combat is where my friends are most likely to get hurt.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: And when we fight Jack....I have to be able to pull my weight.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Well, that won't be for a while, like I said, we have to train ...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Which reminds me of one last pressing topic...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Kate...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: She wants to use her time powers to heal you, but I think it's too dangerous, so I wanted to ask you about it...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Well....I trust that Katie wouldn't hurt me, so that's not a problem.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: It's not that it will hurt you...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: But if Jack's being a jerk again and we're thinking it might make him pay attention to her when she uses them...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: yeah...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: ...she really doesn't have to take the risk for me. I'm fine. Heck, once I find my broom again I won't even have to worry about this dumb leg.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Besides, Libby told me...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: With this medicine, you'll be up and jumping by the end of the week...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Yeah. So she shouldn't risk herself for me.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Not until we know how to neutralize Jack.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: ok...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: I'm not saying she shouldn't EVER do it....it's just not necessary this time.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Well, you have to get some rest...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: I'll go talk to Kate...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Oh poo. I was going to see if Hephaestus would show me how he forges stuff!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: He doesn't seem keen to talking at the moment...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> CA: Bye Sami...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: He never responds much when I talk to him, but I think I can make him smile if I keep at it!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> AA: Bye Beau.
