- "Viret?" - He asked, still rather oblivious to the fact he had been - somehow - corralled into going on a mission - for free - last night. The realisation did not take long to hit him though, and yet again, a grimace flickered momentarily through his features. Now, how the fuck would he get...

- "I'm very distractive, I know." - The tone on his voice was so overtly smug, that Zephyrine would be able to feel the smirk that now adorned his face... A smirk that died down into a frown as she mentioned his loose grip. - "Careful now, Caddel." - He said playfully, as he walked towards the...

A reflecting stone was an old sleight-of-hand at the Academy, well-known to the most proficient of tricksters in the school. With the help of an illusion mage - of which there were a few - one could enchant a specific type of stone to project an uncannily similar reflection of oneself. A pretty...

- "Can you?" - He asked amusedly, as he saw the girl struggle for words. Though the blonde had been veering into drunkenness for some time, he couldn't have possibly failed to notice her furious blushing, nor the stammering that he himself had gone through so many times before, in front of girls...

- "Huh, impressive nonetheless." - He could understand why she'd done it; why Zephyrine had attempted to hide herself from others in the pre-Revolution Academy. She hadn't been the only one to try that, nor had she been the first: Back then, the Academy had very much been a world of natural...

He shifted on top of the Abyssal, his strength draining rapidly as he found himself woefully underprepared to check his opponent. As his magic failed to produce the desired effect, he focused on keeping the thing pinned down, delaying the eventual retaliation until something, or someone, could...

Though he might not have expected it, Lachlan would be able to observe as the entire crew mimicked his gesture, their boots all hitting the deck in unison, the clamouring of hard leather on wood enough to thunder well past the Dawn's Revenge. As those last echoes died down, complete and utter...

"Zephyrine, so that's her name." - He made a mental note to remember the name, though with all the moonshine coursing through his veins, he knew it to be a tall order that this memory would reach the next morning. - "Sure, Zeph." - He replied, his grin widening ever-so-slightly. It would be the...

It had taken Ivan a surprisingly little amount of time after Lachlan had left to figure out where they were. Beyond his natural sense of direction, he also had Admiral Verceg - and his lessons during the trip to Malakath - to thank, as it'd taught him those few factors he had been missing on the...

- "Mhmm," - He murmured as he tried to divine how in the fuck he'd gotten cornered into volunteering for a mission he didn't want to go to. - "well, I'll have to take you up on that one later." - He said. - "In case you don't know, I don't exactly have a good reputation with the Proctors." -...

- "Now, that's a name." - He muttered, as much to himself, as to the initiate next to him. Secretly though, he counted his blessings for nanna Irwin's name being something that actually inspired respect, because he reckoned he wouldn't have had the heart to turn down Lachlan's name choice...

- "It's pretty enough." - He said nonchalantly, as he poured both of them another glass. - "The Viraks own the place, so they make sure it has some.. uh, shine to it." - He continued. - "So it's a nice place to be." - He shrugged - "Well, if you ignore all the manticores going around." - He...

The pulse stunned him, his entire body lulled into obliviousness. For a moment he forgot about the pain, about where he was, or how he'd gotten there as the magic utterly enraptured him... at least until a thud snapped his mind feebly back to reality. It was as though he'd just woken up from the...

He chuckled at the suggestion. - "Well, since your nanna did such a great job at rallying the crew, why don't we name it after her?" - He asked slyly. - "The Matriarch?" - No no, too pompous. - "Odren's Revenge?" - Kress no, too obvious. The second Vel Anir heard there was a ship named the...
