We Are Our Avatars IX: Act V: The Sabotage of the Scandolous Saurian Scoundrels (Open)

[Slenn]

<color=green>"Yes you may." She pointed to Sara upon entering. Sara was a bit startled by the new appearance, but collected herself. <color=green>"This is one of my three sisters, Sara."

<color=green>"Sara, this is our new arrival, Nalyssa."

<color=brown>"Pleased to meet you." Sara curtseyed.

"Oh! Y-your majesty." Sophia said as she abruptly bowed her head somewhat out of reflex it seemed, feeling a bit embarrassed at the mix up.

"It's an honour to um, meet someone of royalty but no, I was just outside." Sophia pointed awkwardly with both hands down the hallway. Due to the angle, it wouldn't be clear how far away this exit was, so Nalyssa would just have to trust that the exit was out that way. "I was going to head to my room for a second, but then I heard everyone talking all of a sudden, and a voice I didn't recognize, and then it was you, and uh... ya." Sophia let out a deep breath, sounding a surprised by the whole situation.

 

[username sucks]

"Greetings, Sara."

Nalyssa frowned slightly at Sophia. "Please, do not be afraid of me, Sophia. Especially not of my title."

 

[Zepherus14]

Seeing Nalyssa frowning at her made Sophia button her lip, giving her the time she needed to think this situation over more thoroughly and to not simply blabber on. "Sorry, I'm just a bit um..." Sophia paused as she tried to think of a proper way to say it. "Star struck. It, won't happen again. It's nice to meet you though, Nalyssa." Sophia said more calmly, returning the greeting.

 

[username sucks]

Nalyssa nodded in response to Sophia. "I regret that I must ask more of you, but is there anywhere quiet nearby? I just... need a bit of time to adjust and... Think about what has happened."

 

[Zepherus14]

"Yes of course." Sophia said as she put up a finger to her lip as she looked left and right down the hallway. "Just follow me this way and I should be able to find something for you." Sophia answered back as she stepped out of the doorway to let Nalyssa through, and then guided her once they were ready.

Following Sophia, Nalyssa would notice the larger mud splat on Sophia's pants, as well as a better view of her tail. Sophia would soon stop at a door a fair distance away from the tv room as she opened it for Nalyssa and checked in it. "Ya this should be nice and quiet for you in and around here. It's a bit on the plain side, but it's functional." Sophia replied, trying to be helpful where she could.

Before Nalyssa left​

Kenna stepped forward. "I'm Kenna. Welcome aboard."

 

[username sucks]

Nalyssa quietly followed Sophia to the room. Though she did notice the mud, she felt that it would be better not to mention it. "Thank you, lady Sophia." Nalyssa said as she stepped into the room and almost slammed the door on Sophia's face.

Previously?​

"A pleasure to meet you, Kenna." Nalyssa said, before leaving with Sophia.

 

[Zepherus14]

Sophia was able to pull her nose away from the door in time for her not to be slammed with the door, but was aware of how close she'd been. "Lady... Sophia?" Sophia mused to herself, finding it had a funny sound to it. She then looked back at the door a short time more before finally starting to head back the way that she'd come, wanting to get the mud off her pants.

[hr]

After a while, Sophia would return to the tv room now in a new set of pants. She looked around the group still sitting around sipping tea, the brief wondering as to how much tea Sara must have brewed to make it last that long. "So, Nalyssa is in one of the rooms over that way, but does anyone have any bright ideas as to what they want to do today? I was thinking if nothing else, me and Matilda could take care of that stuff we were planning." Sophia announced to the occupants.

 

[Slenn]

Sara returned to the TV room as well, taking in a good intake of sunlight for her skin to produce vitamin D.

<color=green>"Well, we found out through a news report that Grey Mann was taken out by a group of terrorists lead by a Mr. Saxton Hale. So there goes that mission." Winona scratched her head for a bit, in almost a comedic fashion, before responding with an idea.

<color=green>"Since we have so much money to spare, we could try out that spa place that was mentioned."

 

[Zepherus14]

"So no more robots?!" Sophia exclaimed within the time Winona was thinking, the relief in her words was almost overwhelming. When Winona mentioned the spa area however, Sophia almost had a bit of skepticism on her face. She wasn't blatantly saying no to the idea, but it was still fairly obvious her preconceptions of what a spa should be like were still making her judge it. "I don't see why we can't at least look at it, it would be good exercise regardless." Sophia eventually answered back to Winona, at least giving the idea a shot if anything.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Spas aren't really my thing..."

 

[Slenn]

Winona got up from the couch and next to Sara, now making a sigh indicating that she was missing a few others that she would like to travel with.
<color=green>"I would like to go to it with my other sisters though. We could go do some shopping or visit a garden center while we wait on them."

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"...you lost me at shopping." Kenna replied.

 

[Zepherus14]

"Oh, ya sure that would be fine, no big hurry!" Sophia waved her hand dismissively to Winona, relaying it was alright to wait for them to return. "My thinking is though, if we really are going to be going to this place, we might as well see where it is, and what the prices are and stuff, ya know? Maybe it's got a sign up sheet or something and we gotta wait, or what have you." Sophia thought out loud, tapping her finger on the side of her face. "So we could just check it, see what's up, and then when your sisters come back we will have a better idea of what's what. We're in London right?" Sophia said, asking the question at the end as she tried to think where they were in the world.

"It beats sitting around on our butts all day at the very least." Sophia ended, aiming her comment at Kenna in particular.

 

[Slenn]

<color=green>"I can agree to that." Winona brightly nodded.

<color=brown>"So what do you want to do, Kenna? Visit a museum? Go to a craft store? Buy food?" Sara said, trying to give suggestions to a person who spoke with few words.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Still not shopping." Kenna replied to Sophia, then looked at Sara. "Idunno... Maybe see if there's a gym nearby or something, somewhere to visit. If nothing else, I'll just find a cheap hotel room and lock myself in with as many WWE highlight reels and cheesy 80s action movies I can find."

 

[Zepherus14]

"But don't think that means I'm in just yet." Sophia quickly added when Winona nodded her head. "I'm still not convinced this is a good use of money, buuut..." Sophia said as she crossed her arms and tilted her head to the side. "This wouldn't be the first time I was wrong on something I wasn't super familiar with, so I'll see what happens." Sophia plainly said in good spirits. "I could always work on another carving if this is a bust, so no worries."

 

[Slenn]

<color=brown>"Oh! Kenna, do you like to work out as well? I'd be more than happy to join you at a gym." Sara clasped her hands together.

Winona shrugged.
<color=green>"That's fair enough. But with all the bounties we've had, we've had a huge excess of cash coming our way. More so than we know what to do with." Winona said, wanting to point something out.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Of course. I said I was training for MMA, didn't I? Gotta stay in shape for that shit." Kenna stood. "You ever wanna train or spar or anything, say the word."
