OOC Cafe
Polished black tiles tesselate across the cafe floor in a chaotic marvel of heptagons, arranged by some unfathomable and alien math, reflecting a shadowed view of this brightly-lit restaurant. Tables of wrought iron and lead glass are arranged around the wide open room, accompanied by matching, padded chairs. Near the entrance is a sunken area wherein the cashier is located.
Square pillars of white stone support the ceiling, helping to distribute the illumination from dozens of skylights. Other lighting is provided by several lampposts hidden among the many planters and by fiendishly-appointed track lights. The cafe is laid out in an elipse and its single wall is thick glass, revealing the restaurant to be underground. Water from the fountain in the plaza above spills down hundreds of tiny stone steps into a pool just beyond the titanic pane of crystal, near floor level.
A moving walkway is to the east, leading out of the cafe through a stone tunnel and off to one side is a sign showing the path to the restrooms.

Fireheart fades in from the spheres.
Tehrrl says, "Eww, an icky girl. ;>"
Stormrider leans into Tehrrl's nibbling, lifting his crest feathers.
Fireheart pops in from the gryphon sphere. "Oh, hello there."
Tehrrl says, "Greetings. :)"
Fireheart hopes Tehrrl wasn't reffering to her...
Stormrider says, "Hello there"
Tehrrl looks innocent.
Tehrrl looks at you.
l tehrrl
Tehrrl is a largish midsized male, on the young side of adulthood. The feathers of his forebody and wings shine a dullish, darkened gold that looks almost oily, with a small smattering of black flecks. The feathers grow finer to the elbow of his forelegs, giving way to greyish forelegs, tipped with sharp, black-clawed talons. Along his "torso", the flecked feathers give way to the grey-black fur of his hindquarters.
He stands with a confident, but tense, never entirely at ease. Perhaps it's left over from his extended time alone in Grylra, and still finds it difficult to lend his trust to the people and surroundings he encounters.
Fireheart asks, "Stands with a confidant what Tehrrl?"
Tehrrl sees his desc has typos :)
Tehrrl says, "That's one of them :)"
Tehrrl says, "That's just like a female, to criticise. ;)"
Tehrrl just isn't good enough for you, is he! ;)
Fireheart stares at Tehrrl and asks, a gleam in her eye, "And what is that supposed to mean, dinner?"
Stormrider chuckles.
Yarawn has connected.
Fireheart smiles wickedly like the Vehrakt she is.
Fireheart looks at Yarawn, "Oh look, more food."
Yarawn waves a cautionary claw at Firehart. "Ah-ah-ah! Not unless indigestion's your idea of a good time." ;)
Fireheart takes another look at Yarawn and says, "You're right, I shouldn't eat you. I'll just feed you to Viktiss." ;)
Yarawn looks confuzzled. "I don't know whether to be relieved, insulted, or just run screaming?" :)
Stormrider says, "Run screaming? Its more intertaining."
Fireheart smiles and nods, "Consider it an honor to be fed to a fiery god."
Yarawn makes one lap of the room, screaming and roaring at the top of his lungs and waving his hands in the air. :)
Stormrider grins and claps his wings.
Fireheart grins evily, pulling a spear from it's sheath and starts hunting the fleeing tiger.
Yarawn now starts running with a purpose: survival!
Cirall has connected.
Stormrider says, "Lo"
Cirall looks around, "Cool, people."
Fireheart gives chase after Yarawn, almost toying with him before she takes him as a sacrifice to Viktiss.
Stormrider says, "Its all a mistake"
Yarawn darts around behind Stormrider and leaps over a table. "And a chase, too."
Stormrider wonders if tiger is tasty?
Cirall walks over to the bar, reaching behind it for a bottle of some firey red drink, prolly wine. She pours herself a glass and watches the festivities.
Surukk has connected.
Fireheart pounces over Storm, almost tempted to take that one too, but will save the gryphon for another time. Tonight her prey is the Tiger...
Stormrider sighs and starts preening Tehrrl's ear-tufts.
Yarawn wouldn't know if he's tasty or not. Noone's given him an opinion yet. :)
Cirall waves to Surukk, offering him a champaigne glass of fireberry wine. "Pull up a seat old bird."
Fireheart will let you know once she's caught you, Yarawn. ;)
Surukk smiles a bit, hey there y'all.
Stormrider says, "Lo."
Yarawn waves 'hi' as he runs for his life. :)
Tehrrl has disconnected.
Stormrider sighs.
Cirall laughs and takes a seat in a comfy plush chair, watching tonight's entertainment.
Fireheart takes a moment to tell Storm, "Looks like you lost your boy toy." before continuing after Yarawn, spear still in hand.
Stormrider says, "I know."
Tehrrl has connected.
Cirall points, "No, there he is."
Stormrider preens softly at Tehrrl's ear-tufts?
Tehrrl
Stormrider says, "Ahh."
Fireheart pauses long enough to burn Tehrrl's computer with her fire breath. She then looks around, "Now where did he go?"
Cirall laughs.
Tehrrl says, "Hmph."
Yarawn risks a peek out from behind the bar... o.o
Stormrider smiles.
Tehrrl peeks back? :)
Fireheart smiles as she spots her prey and lobs a spear at him, the blade embedding itself in and through the front of the bar.
Cirall cries out, "Hey! Watch it, Fire, the wine's back there!!!"
Yarawn jerks back with a "Hey!" O.O
Tehrrl runs.
Tehrrl has disconnected.
Fireheart shrugs at the Aldani as she pulls her other spear and carefully approaches the bar.
Cirall groans as she looks towards the ceiling, muttering something about children these days...
Yarawn leaps up on top of the bar with a seltzer bottle, aimed for that @#$# dragon's eyes. *squirt!*
Stormrider says, "Get me a scotch when your over there Fireheart."
Fireheart cries out as she's hit dead on in the eyes by Yarawn's seltzer! She roars, half blinded. She swings her spear out in front of her where she saw him last, the blade slicing through a few bottles of some sort of alcohol that was on top of the bar.
Surukk says, "Spooky."
Cirall palmsmacks and decides to take another sip of her fireberry wine.
Yarawn leaps for a nearby table to avoid the spear, really not wanting to get skewered tonight. He bungles the landing and the table and he collapse.
Fireheart turns towards the crash, her spear waving before her. She ends up breaking Cirall's bottle of wine, spilling the remains of it all over the table next to her seat, a bit splashing on her. She wipes furiously at her eyes, trying to clear them so she can see that dratted Tiger!
Cirall yelps, "Hey! Watch it Fireheart!" She looks down at the remains of her wine and says with a sigh, "Now who's going to clean this up?"
Fireheart snickers at Cirall, now knowing she finally got to give that Aldani some grief. ;)
Yarawn mumbles something unintelligable and crawls off under another nearby table.
Cirall glares at Fireheart.
Fireheart acks as RL interupts her and will brb...
Cirall hmphs, "Excuses, excuses."
Tehrrl has connected.
Tehrrl returns. :)
Stormrider licks.
Yarawn pauses under a table to catch his breath while his pursuer is distracted. :)
Stormrider gently preens Tehrrl.
Raichun has arrived.
Raichun fades in from the spheres.
Tehrrl cocks his head?
Stormrider mimics Tehrrl's pose, then nuzzles softly into his chest feathers.
Fireheart is back and brought a towel to wipe her eyes with. Soon, she can see again, somewhat. She looks around for her prey, Yarawn, her spear in hand.
Cirall warns Raichun, "Watch it dear, she's after felines for her god, Viktiss..."
Yarawn picks up the table he's hiding under and tries to make a getaway. :)
Raichun waves her on,"I've got a few particularly ugly spells I'm just dying to try out.":>
Fireheart roars as she sees her prey trying to getaway. She hurls her spear at him before taking wing to dive after him. Her spear soars through the air with great speed and force, burying the blade into the table yarawn had, the shaft quivering there from the force.
Cirall ducks as the spear flies through the air. "Fireheart! That's enough!"
Yarawn drops the table, it falling one way while he rolls the other, blood seeping from a stab-wound in his shoulder...
Fireheart circles the air, judging and timing her dive just right, completely ignoring the Aldani's protests.
Yarawn snarls in pain and protest as he streaks back towards the bar.
Cirall looks at Fireheart evenly saying, "Ignore me, will she?" She picks up the courtesy phone nearby and calls security.
Stormrider nuzzles Tehrrl?
Tehrrl is idly.
Surukk would think that would be the "discourtesy" phone?
Fireheart finally sees an opening, her prey's back to her as he heads back to the bar. she swivels midair, dropping suddenly into a sharp dive, aiming for him with open claws.
Tehrrl says, "Too many people looking over my shoulder here. :)"
Cirall nods to Surukk as she places the reciever back in the cradle.
Stormrider nods, "Oh, at a public lab? Or just company?
Tehrrl thinks he chased them off, though, so goes back to exploring Storm's crestfeathers.
Yarawn becomes a very pained kitty as a dragon decides to use him as a crash-mat!
Stormrider lifts his crest feathers, his ear-tufts flicking rapidly.
Fireheart swings her hind claws out at the last second, crash-landing on the bartop as Yarawn ducks behind it at the last second. The bar cracks, a few splinters and chunks breaking off as suddenly, the room fills with armed security guards. They swarm all over the obviously hostile dragoness, bringing her down off the damaged bar. She puts up a fight as only a Vehrakt can though.
Raichun has disconnected.
Tehrrl says, "Fireheart is hostile? I wouldn't have noticed."
Yarawn notes the panther's disconnect. "Oh great, so much for my back-up." :)
Stormrider chuckles.
Rakintaa has connected.
Cirall chuckles at Tehrrl's comment, smiling satisfactorily at the security guards.
Rakintaa returns, and sees her comment about going back IC and RPing was, of course, well heeded.
Tehrrl says, "Naturally."
Fireheart growls and roars as she's ducktaped to a chair.
Yarawn looks out over the splintered and half-demolished bar at the fight between Fireheart and the security guards.
Rakintaa says, "Oooh, kinky."
Stormrider wonders how many ducks went into making that ducktape.
Cirall looks over her shoulder at the bar and says, "It wasn't a problem until she got violent and threatned everyone. Now the bar is broke and will take time and resources to repair and restock it..."
Yarawn pours himself a shot of tequila, keeps the bottle, and finds a place to sit away from the ruckus. :)
Fireheart glares at the impudent child-queen of the Aldani, growling at the humiliation she's suffering at the hands of the brat.
Archarus has arrived.
Archarus fades in from the spheres.
Stormrider lowers his head a little and starts to preen through Tehrrl's chest feathers.
Cirall groans as she picks up the discourtesy phone, caling for some janitors and cleaning staff to start cleaning the place up. in the mean time, she walks over, yanking Fire's two spears out of the table and barfront, setting them next to Fire on the floor.
Fireheart snorts and growls even more at the upstart Aldani, wishing she wern't ducktaped to the chair she's in by security.
Archarus blinks once at the situation of a Priestess, especially Fireheart, being held against her will... unthinkable, note... and heads in that direction with determination.
Rakintaa refuses to admit culpability, but go ahead. :)
Stormrider nuzzles his beak through Tehrrl's feathers.
Cirall tells Arch, "I wouldn't if I were you, Arch. She got violent and half trashed the place and I had to call security to detain her."
Tehrrl rouses his feathers, and watches.
Archarus shrugs, "And this is outside of normal Vehrakt behavior... how?" And continues on, examining how she's restrained and hrming a bit, then just using one of his knives to cut the duct tape bit by bit, making sure to step back a bit once he's sure despite his show of confidence.
Stormrider ignores everyone for a moment as he nibbles his beak through Tehrrl's feathers.
Fireheart stands up in a blaze of fury, grabbing both spears from the floor, sweeping both in front of her towards Cirall before sheathing them suddenly. "This is not over, Aldani." With that she turns and steps back IC to Grylra.
You return to the game.
