Priscilla let out a sigh as she slumped farther into the couch. Her voice was muffled because she was talking down into the cushions. " Fine fine, The brute will take care of that when the time comes." She lazily rose her hand, making a very small magical circle with her fingers. When Relic accepted the teleport he would soon find himself in the Hallowbrook as well.

"Be a good help, Duke. Rub my shoulders." she made another lazy gesture.

[Relic's not actually here yet, right? You just set up the circle to let him in?]

As Nail moved behind Priscilla, he briefly rolled his eyes where she couldn't see him do it. The hybrid prayed that this tenure would not be for too long. But as he moved his hands to give the massage, the cell phone started vibrating. Nail's head snapped towards the pocket where he was keeping it.

Who would be calling me? Or maybe it's someone the rightful owner knows? Should I answer it?

He took the phone out of his pocket, and held it in one hand. Since he still had the cuffs on, he had to awkwardly rub Priscilla's shoulder with one hand while keeping the other very close by, almost on the back of Priscilla's neck, as he looked at the phone. However, he didn't see a button to answer the call. The hybrid kept poking at the phone, hoping he'd stumble across it.

[That sounds sooooo awkward.]

The vibrations seemed to work, but it appeared it was splitting the Duke entity's attention with the Milady entity, and given the restraining device was on him, he appeared to be bending in a way the anatomy of such creatures deemed uncomfortable. Perhaps being poked at was some sort of punishment?

"Duke, was it? I would like to request some unscheduled time of yours to exchange information. Requesting high priority."

The pure wolf let out a nearly silent mumble of satisfaction. "Ah r-right there..." Now with little work to do Priscilla truly felt the extent of her exhaustion.

Having moved itself to the center of the room, the magical circle started out only the size of a quarter. Then one of Relic's knife like digits poked it's way through. The rest of the gauntlet soon following suit as the former paladin began to expand the portal himself. Normally he wave been instantly pulled into the room, but Priscilla had put minimal effort into opening the way for him. After 30 seconds of widening the inscribed circle Relic was half his body into the room. The giant knight paused for a moment, studying Nail, the position he was in and the device he had in his hand.

It was impossible to tell if the 3 pink shopping bags on his right arm elevated or disarmed Relic's utterly terrifying presence. "Lady Priscilla... "

A small smile came across the wolfs face before being replaced by a scowl. "Can't you see I rest?"

Relic let out a grumble, placing the bags down. He was still straddling between being in the room and in the portal.

Nail reared his head back, suddenly stopping the massage as the mobile device appeared to address him. This thing could understand everything you were talking about? Like learn names and ask questions? It had a full artificial intelligence that could actually learn and communicate with you like a real intelligent mind? Just how much had technology advanced since he'd been in?

He felt so shocked by this turn of events that he didn't say anything for a second. Then Relic started coming in the room, and he was clearly giving Nail the evil eye.

Mumbling as quietly as he could, he whispered to the device. "Later, please. Not now." He felt surprised that Priscilla didn't seem to notice the device talking to him. Then he resumed the massage, hoping she wouldn't call him out on the pause.

SOLIS · 11-14-2011, 03:17 PM

"Understood."

While it would have preferred a definite time it could discuss things with him at the very least, SOLIS could tell that he was preoccupied. With not another sound, it's screen blackened and it went to sleep again.

[Feel free to skip my posts until Nail addresses it again.]

Relic Drake · 11-15-2011, 02:55 AM

As Relic finally emerged fully from the inscribed circle the portal disappeared almost instantly. Having to hunch his head as he easily would bump into low parts in the ceiling and light fixtures.

"You can stop Duke, My master slumbers."

Nail would find now that the white wolf had fallen asleep. Only letting the slightest of mummers.

"It's been a hard fortnight on her, Having come from that situation to establishing ourselves in this new world." The knight peered down at Nail's still bound hands. "If you do not enjoy those, I can easily shatter them." He pointed a sharp finger at the cuffs.

***Nail Strafer*** · 11-16-2011, 11:26 AM

Nail looked up surprised when the dread knight personally addressed him. Outside of battles, he never seemed to pay attention to anyone except for Priscilla. It felt odd to hear him speak of his own accord. In fact, as he talked about Priscilla having a hard time, he almost appeared gentle for a fleeting moment.

The mention of a "new world" got his attention. Did they pass through the light too? He didn't think he'd gotten a straight answer from this pair earlier. But first, he supposed he should take the guy up on his offer to get the cuffs off. Lord knew they were cutting into his wrists and really getting uncomfortable. So he held out his arms.

"Yes, I'd like them off."

As he did so though...he wasn't entirely sure he thought he'd like how Relic may think of getting them off... To take his mind off of it, he decided to ask again about his experience in traveling to this world. And as he did so, he thought his new phone might want to listen...as odd as that sounded. Nail briefly spoke to the phone.

"You can wake up now," before turning his attention to the demon. "You said...new world? Did you two come here in a bright flash of light like I did? It was the last thing I remember before getting here."

SOLIS · 11-17-2011, 08:10 AM

Upon waking, SOLIS's first thought was to talk with Duke about their current situation. Before it could ask to talk, however, he began speaking to the large one. It appears all of these entities are just as unfamiliar with this world as it was. It thought back on Duke's attacker, was he new as well? It was asleep for some of the fight, so it wasn't quite sure why it attacked. If it was a native though, perhaps it should avoid too much interaction with them, as the only one it's had much interaction with was fairly violent.

To ensure Duke could tell it was awake again, it's screen turned on and displayed in clear, white text, "I'm listening."

Relic Drake · 11-17-2011, 01:16 PM

The large knight made his way closer to Nail. Crushing each of the locking mechanisms between his thumb and index claws.

"Milady's teleportation always has that bright flare." his articulated helm showed he was deep in thought. "I must say, I haven't experienced eldritch forces quite like that day." He raised his right gauntlet slightly pointing at SOLIS "What says the enchanted tablet?"
