 [11:30] GT: Lily is inside her room.

 [11:30] GC: There is a sound of a thud and quiet "owwwww..."

 [11:31] GT: She opens the door. "What'd you break."

 [11:33] GC: The answer is evident on the floor in front of her. Erisio is on the floor, one of his shoes untied. It is easy to piece together what happened

 [11:34] GT: "You are a very accident-prone young man," she says, chuckling and extending a hand to help him up.

 [11:35] GC: He looks up at Lily. "Hiii... Lily..." He takes the hand and stands up

 [11:35] GC: "Only.. sometimes... I think"

 [11:36] GT: "Most times, Erisio. Most times." She reopens the door. "C'mon in. Everyone keeps scarpering off. If this keeps up we won't get to the fuckin' land until tomorrow."

 [11:39] GC: "Yeah I guess, I*m not really all that pumped to go though"

 [11:40] GC: "According to Thiago, I*d be a good "bodyguard" but I*m not stupid! I know he meant "living sheild"

 [11:41] GT: "Oh, come on. You're the Thief of Mind! You can, like, steal people's minds 'n shit! How badass is that?"

 [11:42] GC: "Isn*t that kind of messed up though?"

 [11:42] GC: "Like... just taking peoples thoughts and skills and experiences and even their sanity"

 [11:43] GC: "It doesn*t feel right"

 [11:44] GT: "Welll, yeah, but I mean Merrow can destroy time itself, so, y'know." She shrugs.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:44] GC: "Wha?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:44] GC: "Dude how and why do you know so much stuff"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:45] GT: "Destroy it or use it as a weapon, anyways." She grins. "And I have my sources."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:45] GC: "Like all I got is simple stuff that every one knows like how everyone knows the Viola is a genus of flowering plants in the violet family Violaceae and stuff like that"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:46] GT: "Yes. Absolutely everyone knows that. You are right."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:47] GC: "Or like pumpkins (one of Acenia*s favorite) is a squash that can favorably affect insulin and glucose levels in diabetes models"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:48] GC: "Y*know, easy stuff"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:48] GT: "Mmmm hm. Easy. Yep."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:48] GC: "But then you have this insider info on this game like did you buy a walkthrough or something?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:48] GT: "Ehehe. You could call her that."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:49] GC: "What?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:49] GC: "Her? DId you... Lily did you buy a person? That isn*t ok!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:49] GT: "Wh - no, oh my God."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:50] GT: "It was the jokes, you see. Because she acts like she is a living walkthrough sometimes."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:50] GC: "But I asked if you bought a walkthrough and you said you could call her that which means you bought her... Anyway who*s her?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:52] GT: "Libz. Or, wait, I'm sorry." She flutters her eyelashes and affects a posh British accent. "Mother dearest."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] GC: "Wha...? She*s british?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] GC: Erisio is seriously confused

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] GT: "No. This was also a joke. Because she is very formal."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:55] GC: "Ok, so I should remember for you"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:56] GC: "If it*s confusing, it*s probably a joke"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:56] GT: "That's probably a bad line of reasoning to take."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:56] GC: "Oh uh... ok"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:56] GC: "What should I take then?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:57] GT: She snaps her fingers. "Wait, OK, idea. I'll precede all my jokes with 'This is a joke'. It's the perfect plan."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:59] GC: "I think that was sarcastic"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:59] GT: "What, no, that was an actual idea I was putting forth."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:00] GC: "Gah, moving on, what about mother dearest?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:04] GT: "You didn't see the family tree thingy?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:05] GC: "I did, but like, What. So this Libby has been telling you all about the game?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:05] GC: "Have you been holding out on us?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:06] GT: "Hey, you guys haven't asked." Her eyes widen slightly. "Oh, that reminds me. I gotta explain alchemization to you, while you're here."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:06] GC: ((AFTER 20 MINUTES OF QUESTION AND ANSWER TIME WITH ERISIO AND LILY))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:06] GT: ((BOOP BOOP A DOOP))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:07] GC: "So it combines the items with science magic?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:07] GC: Erisio looks like the secrets of the universe were just revealed to him

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:07] GT: "Good enough."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:12] GC: "Uh, wait!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:12] GC: "You said we ever asked, so now I*m asking"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:12] GC: "What else do you know"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:13] GT: "Battletoads is a stupid game and your sister got all the good twink genes." She pouts. "She didn't even go bald, the lucky bastard."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:13] GC: "I"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:13] GC: "Uh ok"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:14] GC: "But being bald isn*t so bad! You*re still pretty!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:14] GT: She blushes. "So I've been told."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:15] GC: "Oh my, Lily~, have you found a *gentleman caller*?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:15] GC: He sits cross legged on the floor, wiggling his eyebrows

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:16] GT: She blushes brighter. "No yes okay maybe it's Sorser."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:19] GC: He fake gasps. "Lily! How could you toy with my heart this way. I thought we were meant to be!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:20] GC: He does an over dramatic flop onto his back

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:20] GC: "I can never recover from this horrible wound you*ve made"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:21] GT: "Oh no, my love," she says dramatically. "I never wanted to hurt you, and now..." She puts a hand to her heart.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:22] GC: "No but really good job"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:22] GC: "Good thing both my sisters are smart and have good taste in men"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:23] GT: She grins. "Damn straight I have good taste in men."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:24] GC: "Man, you all paired up so fast. It*s like everywhere I look it*s a new couple. Like rabbits. Or A bed of flowers in the spring"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:26] GT: "I'll be the lovely exotic flower that has, like, the hairy stem or something. Edelweiss? Yeah."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:28] GC: "Nah, you*d be a Rhododendron I think. It fits your color scheme more. Or maybe a violet or a lavender"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:28] GT: "Sorser is one of those ones that has the retracty leaves, maybe?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:28] GC: "Come back to me on that one, I*ll have to think about it"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:28] GT: "Man, I don't know shit about plants."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:29] GC: "Sorser? He*s maybe a... Green Chrysanthemum?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:30] GC: "Maybe a green day lily or a green Cymbidium Orchid"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:30] GC: "Oh! Well if you want to learn I could teach you!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:31] GT: "Ooooh, yeahhhh, that'd be sweet."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:31] GC: ((Congrats. You pulled up the secret of erisio's plant love. He loves flowers a lot))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:33] GC: "Ok well, while we have time, I can teach you a few things!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:34] GC: He decaptchalouges a few small textbooks

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:34] GT: "Aw hell yes." She rubs her hands together. "Dis gon be good."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:34] GT: ((SEVERAL HOURS OF INTENSE STUDYING LATER...))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:34] GC: ((doop doop doop a doop))

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:35] GT: "Holy shit."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:36] GC: Erisio, with even more energy than when the lesson started, has moved onto the differences of climates that affect flora

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:36] GC: "I know right?!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:40] GT: "OK this is kind of really fucking interesting oh my God."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:40] GC: "I know right?! Isn*t it the best!?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:41] GT: "I will rank it a close second to magic. This is an accolade of the highest degree."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:46] GT: "You think I could borrow some of these books and read them in my spare time?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:46] GC: "Oh totally! I have spares"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:46] GT: "Somehow I'm not surprised."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:48] GC: "Aw I*m full of surprises! For example-" He decaptchalouges two copies of the same textbook. "-I have spares of the spares!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:48] GT: "Dear Lord."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:50] GC: "Your religon can not save you now"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:50] GC: "You are in too deep"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:50] GT: "It's true. The Plant Times are upon us at last."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:51] GC: "Plant times were upon us when my parents made yggdrasil" He says. His face completely straight faced

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:52] GT: She stares back with a face exactly as straight.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:54] GC: Erisio hands Lily a textbook and smiles. "Here you go!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:54] GC: Like that awkward stare off hadn*t even happened

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:55] GT: She takes it. "Ah, sweet. Thanks a billion." Stare off what stare off.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:58] GC: "Anyway, you have fun, I guess we just have to wait for everyone else to show up"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:05] GT: "Kay." She opens the book and starts reading, using him as a footrest.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:06] GC: There is a groan of disgruntlement and minor swatting at Lily*s leg

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:13] GT: She nonchalantly turns a page of her textbook.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:17] GC: Erisio hmphs and swats again. Man that one actually hurt a little. Dude is strong

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:19] GT: She grunts and swats back with her foot.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:20] GC: More groans of disapproval

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:24] GC: "Stop bullying me"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:24] GT: "I'm noooot. You are here, and you are on the floor, and I need a footrest."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:28] GC: Erisio sits up, pushing her feet off of him and standing up

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:28] GT: She flails her arms pathetically. "Nooooo~!"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:28] GC: "Can I use your bed?"

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:29] GT: She pouts. Fine. I guess I'll just go over here and sit in my CHAIR, then." She makes a big show of going over and sitting down huffily in her desk chair.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:30] GT: "BECAUSE MY FOOTREST CRUELLY ABANDONED ME."

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:30] GC: "I*ll pay you back" he mumbles before flopping face first onto the bed. Within seconds he was asleep

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [01:31] GT: "You'd better," she mutters darkly, but smiles nonetheless, before going back to her textbook.
