[A Town Meeting for how to handle the situation. No doubt people will come and speak up about things in turn. Despite the fact that I'm posting with Scorpius he's obviously not the one organizing it. There's an OOC Plotting Post here.

This post will have two subthreads mostly for quick and easy organizational purposes - one to put aside the proposing of ideas or questions, ICly (if you want to not write out the whole thing ICly you could just put up an OOC description of what they're doing. and then a second for mingling which isn't necessarily publicly proposing some big idea or question

As it's a mass log feel free to tag in whatever format you please]

It'd be... [... What did he say again?] ... that... too... if they came here.

[all7seas]

Aye. But if you want my opinion, they're coming here whether we give him or no. They're coming.

[tailasoldastime]

[... He was hoping he wouldn't say that.] I know.

[all7seas]

So, what's your name, mate? [Wow. This guy is BIG. and...a little oddly-shaped...]

[tailasoldastime]

["Oddly-shaped" is one way to describe it.]

Beast.

[all7seas]

No.


That's a rather rum sort of name, laddie!

[tailasoldastime]

[He cocks his eyebrow, even if Jack can't see him do it.] A what sort of name?

[all7seas]

"Beast." Why'd they nickname you that, eh? Messy eater?

[tailasoldastime]

[A very soft hmph is heard from him. Then a pause. ... Then he slowly turns his head towards Jack, revealing his lion-like face.]

[all7seas]

..........................Oh. That's why.

[tailasoldastime]

[He says nothing and just returns to his original position. Maybe there's a slight hint of a hmm there. Almost a reluctant one.]

[all7seas]

Now now. At least your name matches you.

[tailasoldastime]

Ugh. [Don't remind him, Jack.]

[all7seas]

And I'll bet dollars to doubloons yer mum thinks of you as the handsomest chap what ever walked the earth.

[tailasoldastime]

[Somewhat bitterly:] I don't have a "mum".

[all7seas]

Lad -- EVERYONE'S got a mum.



Unless, of course, they were torn directly from the thigh of Zeus.

[And he's guessing you weren't, Beast.]

[tailasoldastime]

[... He does not know what that means.]

I mean she is... [...] ... She's dead.

[all7seas]

............Oh. Well. Mine too, eh?

[Awkwarrrrrrd.]

[tailasoldastime]

[Well hmph, he asked for it. But this is pretty awkward. Now he doesn't know what to say.]

[all7seas]

[Make that two of them, sitting in kind of clumsy silence.]

[tailasoldastime]

[Hmmmm, this can't go on forever, can it? One of them has to say something. And it... will have to be him, won't it. Uh...]

... S-so... wh... what will you... do? In th-this... thing?

1/2

[all7seas]

The same thing I always do, Beastie.

2/2

[all7seas]

[tailasoldastime]

[Oh...

...

... Why... why aren't you using a glass? That... doesn't look right.]

Does... d-does that... really help?

[all7seas]

I find it always helps me. Would you care for a swallow?
