"Thanks for the mead." Mydeimos, you can't just take someone else's mead—

(At least he's comfortable enough around Caelus to do so...???)

Like that.

Just like fucking that.

There wasn't even a follow up thought or phrase to even go with what transpired! Mydeimos merely looks content, lost in the act of enjoying a good drink. It leads this starfaring roamer to immediately assume this must be some late tradition of Kremnos at work. Could it be a case where the prince could proceed to embrace such rights?

"Dude, what--" He sputtered out, that delectable honeybrew of his was being conquered! In fact the pace was hardly leaving any room for him to try seizing a chance to enjoy it! A pure, petty and outright 'irritated' spike of emotion swarms through Caelus as an immediate thought comes to light. This would not be the way he goes down in Amphoreus history.

Someone else can definitely take the position of this guy's cupbearer!

Momentarily does the Trailblazer stomp off, heading to some odd end of the bar before immediately returning, capturing the attention of a few roaming eyes, either excitement or terror glimmering in their gaze as two sloshing barrels of chilled mead would find itself set before the two Chrysos Heirs. "Someone certainly woke up with a whole lot of guts this morning. A man's drink is a man's soul." Whatever that means, he'll just coin it as a space saying.

Right now he can't let that delicious taste become a spoiled legend! Instead, embrace a contest to heighten the very flavor. "And there's no way we're handling this otherwise!"

"So. Before you go n' make Cipher too proud--" Both of those barrels would be situated between him and the Kremnoan, the audible smack of contact against the surface seeming to echo within the Holy city. Let this be another epic penned within the history of Okhema, how Time and Strife would make even Phagousa blush with their might.

"How about I show you that you're a little in over your head? Drinking Contest."

so youre the guy whos got fan fics on the inter not?,you should get paid cause i Just bought one

"Nope, not at all."

Curt, quick and to the point. If there's one thing a long line of chaos has taught him, it'd be the wisdom to cut these branches quick. Latent curiosity and a wandering mind were often the curses (or blessings) that led to ingenuity of all kinds.

"Given that space's more... Elusive nature, I doubt it'd have anything to do with me. Much less jotting down stories."

"Sides, last time I noticed from my time in the city, Lighter is a blonde."

[astrxlfinale]

I didn’t know they sold merchandise of you in penacony trailblazer it’s cute!

"Sheesh is this how people be seeing me half the time! I--"

...

Stares at it a bit more.

"Y'know, I can kinda see the way our eyes match with this look here." Except it hardly did match. Racoon energy? Absolutely, but his sleeping days have been much more improved since getting his own room.

Those dark rings were becoming urban legends at this point!

His amazement is forcibly (sadly) dwindled by a raised hand. Catching that picture perfect moment, Neo vanquishing an apple with grace and fangs was a sight for the soul.

For some reason he feels inspired, as if musical scores can be drawn by his hand, that new power can be forged with himself being the architect. That is what those sharp pearly whites enacted in his very concept.

Then the threat, the core reason as to why he briefly covered his mouth to begin with! Those legs of his, so resilient in the most dangerous situations picked now to buckle as he stammered out.

Certainly they didn't go and jump that many bases!

"I should ask you for dinner before threats like that meet the limelight. I'd be beyond a rude bastard otherwise."

...

"Y'know this is harder than I thought it'd be. No callin those -Censored noise-" Yes. He somehow made that noise. "Wonderful?"

god fucking damn it!

a rare moment of peace, a chance to let their guard down, and this blasted idiot rounds the corner in time to catch them mid-chomp. pink glass shards swarm around their face for a few fractions of a second, eyes and teeth obscured until suddenly appearing normal, human again. they resume eating their half-eaten apple, a glare on their face the entire time.

'mention it again, and i'll bite it off.' they don't need to explain what it is, the implication is enough.

[astrxlfinale]

@isolement replied to your post “"Those fangs---" No he's not going to iterate on...”:

neo vc: yeah man?

​

!!!

BRISTLES ABRUPTLY.

Takes a sudden breathe, focuses, swipes his hair haphazard before looking Neo properly. Remember. Focus on their eyes and not their teeth! That's rude!

"Fancy meetin' you here. Think I learned something a lil bit new about you today." Do not study the fangs. Do not. Study those beautiful fangs.

[astrxlfinale]

"Those fangs---"

No he's not going to iterate on this in any capacity. He just saw an instance that just transformed the mind a lil bit. That is all.

Ahem.

[astrxlfinale]

"Lord Phaethon, huh? Quite the classic approach. Guess this would explain how some more-- adventurous means of taking care of business got put on the table."

Lighter certainly isn't complaining. Even parts of the greaction Section 6 could make due with a little humbling.

[astrxlfinale]

THE KING IS NOW HOME.

FULL SET.

CALYDON GANG IS NOW AT THE READY.

[astrxlfinale]

Hooooold on a goddamn second here!

Hone in on that a bit more--

There we go! This detail here is really going to make me sharpen my sights upon both The Family, and the following of Harmony at large. This correlates with some real particular intel. Harmony in itself (which ironically, happens to be a Path that Ena helped work into creation) seems to hold a source of knowledge about the Stellarons.

Part of me wonders if Celenova's information is forcefully siphoned, or if this could be a potential secret shared between them, despite the intent to eradicate The Harmony itself. Nanook's choice in this particular case could've been very intentional.

Now I'm not going to insinuate that Xipe itself has something to do with Stellaron disasters running rampant. But, the unique identity of Harmony itself allows very powerful secrets and truths to be shared through this measure of spiritual unification. In fact the Stellaron 'hivemind' could very well be inspired by such abilities, a way to keep that madness and drive spiraling within it's sect.

I really would not be surprised if Stellarons existed in some unique form beforehand, only to find themselves violently channeled and awakened at the eve of Nanook's ascension.

This in itself is going to bring Celenova into the scope as a heavy target for Caelus, once he catches hint the potential truth of his origins may lie with her, moreso understanding exactly what this World Cancer is within him outside a home of extreme power.

"Hah! And look what the cat dragged in. Been across so many worlds by now, figured it would've been hard to remember my face Ol' man with the plan Koski."

What a way to reap a little nostalgia. This enigmatic dude he could never get a pin on, but he was content with that fact.

"Still intending to whip out the untold terrors?"

f i n a l l y ! someone he put the blame on - ah , he means ... actively include in his friendly , compassionate and totally legit plans ...

[astrxlfinale]

I cannot get those Bad End scenarios from the Myriad Celestia out of my head. Not even just for the terror feel alone (even if I love that in itself.) It's just that premise of getting to actively have the modern day cast have to either navigate or turn around those harrowing conditions.

Or really come to see just how much of a delicate everything near and dear is settled at right now.

It all falls back to that element Kafka mentioned at the start.

There's like a billion and one ways things can get fucked up, and only one right opportunity that may as well be an error in the HSR verse itself.

Maybe I will play with the idea with muts, a brief exploration into those ruined realms.

[astrxlfinale]

Almost time.

The Calydon posting got me excited, but fuck yeah I'm have the whole gang just about here and prepared.

FOR CAESAR!!

"Hmmm my ass is waaay bigger than yours, Lighter! I wish the proxy would hit me like that ~" She means both of them. (burnice)

Did she live to challenge the Champion's composure? Initially he hadn't thought twice. Burnice was defined by whimsy and oftentimes accepting that fact alone somehow 'loosened the screws', opening up many to her wild sense of order more than anything else. So imagine once he actually honed onto those very words. A clear as day awareness bolting through his mind like frenzied static.

"YOU WHAT--!?" Why paint him Outer Ring gold and call him cornbread!

Now he wasn't about to contest the nature of who had the superior butt. Lighter is conscious of his gains, sculpted, and he takes care to ensure his entire foundation is secure. What truly played as the heart pounding instant is how she so casually pointed out the nature of her's. Would arguing that be the wisest move? Absolutely not. For Burnice White was a force amidst the Outer Ring.

Somehow any feeble attempt of dancing into this 'contest' would be the torn up ridges of different truths. How there is a core reason as he'd come to never go and challenge. Throughout pirouettes, high jumps and the nature of rushing flame and grainy gale often flows by her figure, Lighter Lorenz would be a liar to say he hadn't witnessed the cake she rocked in those shorts.

What settles in his mind instead is her wish drawled with a dreamy note. How that invasive idea, of either Wise or Belle having one very blessed day spent by her side. "Burnice--" His voice sounds stressed, disbelieving, but at the same time this disbelief was rooted in understanding! Who wouldn't get the value of a proper smack upon the ass at their stage of the 'game?'

He opts to firmly resist that magnetizing tug his eyes wish to make, to see the exact bakery that would've been set on full display. Allowing his scarlet scarf to hide the swath of heat upon his face, the Champion couldn't resist a guffaw while giving a shake of his head.

"As much of a firecracker you are, Burnice? No doubt your chosen would-- have their work cut out for them."

....

"Never would've fancied you as the type liking those kinda lessons."

@pcrdiseseekers

[astrxlfinale]

Oh the sheer moxie this Proxy has when it comes to particular views. To think there would be an Outer Ringer actively having a reason to get warm in the face.

..That said? Motivation truly is a magical force.

Belle on a normal day vs when she sees Lighter @astrxlfinale

“You gonna share that mead or hog it all???”

"Oi oi! Let's not act like I have the last active chalice of the stuff! If that was the case, don't you think it'd be a whole damn kingdom after me?" Caelus shoots back, wrinkling his nose briefly, simply making a show before a shot of laughter follows through.

A place where lushes, drunks and those looking for a more loose time was rife was chances to get some good drink. Why in the hell would he deny Karma? Hell, she came in a lot nicer than March and that delusional little list of good deals, that deed was clearly situated to go and obstruct their social points!

He'd give a mindless little wave of his froth filled mug.

"Head to those chilled barrels behind the counter. Barkeep is busy elbow dropping folks in that crowd back there. I say that's a better invitation to enjoy the goods than most.

@bxd-kxrma

[astrxlfinale]

March is just gonna freeze his mead as her good deed of the day!

"...." Of course.

It can never be that simple.

Or can it...?"

Why Caelus is going to look at this frozen cinderblock of a cup in his hand, inspiration thriving as his first idea within this bar is to toss it into an onset of patrons. It doesn't take long for a bar fight to ignite, the mere thought of someone being offensive being enough to start the waves of war!

Which left a certain Trailblaze entirely open to take his own openings. "Don't miiiiind if I do! Lemme see what else they got--" There he is, skulking amidst the back shelves while doing nothing but riling up the public. Agreeing, disagreeing, imitating someone's voice to say another has a bald spot. Fanning these flames as natural as breathing.

Also with no shortage of free drinks!

@the-lytenye-realms

[astrxlfinale]

' are you even old enough to drink mead, loser '

SIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP. (Pretend it's a mug okay. Immersion.)

SETS IT FIRM UPON THE TABLE.

"Who died and made you the judgmental grandma of all things? Aren't you rebel types supposed to be all about bending and breaking every rule? Setting it up in flames?"
