Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

"No, and partially. I asked Ihra about her friends, and she showed particular concern about some robot named Eve. Like any curious being, I inquired about it."

 

"Well, I'm not the one to kill anyone over information about Eve. Aj is." Shadow Stephanie says.

 

...At least it means I don't need to sharpen my scythe anytime soon.
I'll grab the 2 halfes of the fish.

 

"I'm sure Ihra will be happy to hear she's on death row for talking about her friends."

Now to get the wood stove going...

 

"Yeah, because Aj's that flippant about killing his friends." Shadow Stephanie says sarcastically.

 

"I don't know if there is much to do outside, with the storm going on. Maybd they have some games in here?"

 

Idhaenna smiles.
"I appreciate he's taking this seriously, but... that's just absurd. Does he really think having a robot fly around in the open is gonna keep it a secret?"

"I'll figure something out, eventually."

 

"You can't really glean much information on sight alone." Shadow Stephanie says.

 

"Maybe wander around a bit. Talk with the dragoness or something."

 

"Oh? Nod, can you tell me a bit about this Shadow Stephanie?"
"Yes, milady. Female, amorphous shadow being. Modeled after a so-called form body of a girl named Stephanie, not present. Element, dark. Threat level, high. Irritability, moderately high. Personality, snarky and roundabout plus caring. Often likes to claim she doesn't care, or a variation of the phrase."
"...Well, how would you say Nod did?"

________________________________

"She'd probably think I'm food. She still hasn't seen me."

 

"Eh, I honestly don't care. Or a variation of that phrase." Shadow Stephanie shrugs.

 

"Want me to join you on your first meeting with her?"

 

Idhaenna smiles.
"Sight is a powerful thing, especially if it's the only sense you have."
"And auditory reception."
"You only listen half the time."
"Should that offend me?"
"Too bad Aj's not here to make a bug pun."

"Absolutely. I literally wouldn't if you didn't come."

 

"With any luck, he should bee back here any time soon." Shadow Stephanie says.

 

"Wanna go now and explain or wait a bit? Now might be better."

 

Idhaenna smirks.
"Can I keep you here for about ever?"

________________________________

"Sure, just... let me on your shoulder so I don't get swarmed by children."

 

"Apart from the ominous implications with that coming from someone like you, I can't. I have a kingdom to rule and a boyfriend to love. I'm busy bee." Shadow Stephanie says.

 

"Is she making fun of my queen, milady?"
"No, she's not, and it's great."

 

"Anyway, I should stop buzzing about and bee a little more useful, since the hive master is coming to wreck this place." Shadow Stephanie says.

 

"Yeah sure."
He lowers her body.
"All aboard."
