01:05:14 * Kojiro Congratulations, in your attempt to keep people from being bored you made me be bored. 01:06:01 <%Shonikado> although apparently you don't want to play 01:06:02 <%Shonikado> back to drawing then 01:06:13 <@Kojiro> What. 01:06:26 * Kojiro tries to figure out how to load this darn game. 01:06:53 * Shonikado A button hangs from the ceiling; it looks like some sort of flower with the button being the center 01:06:57 * Shonikado ... It looks kind of like an eye 01:07:13 * Kojiro Is it an eye? 01:07:17 * Shonikado It is a button eye 01:07:26 * Shonikado Not the Coraline type, the pressable type. 01:07:37 * Kojiro presses the button. 01:08:21 * Shonikado The button/flower screeches in pain; the world around Kojiro suddenly begins blurring, colors swirling, darting into the flower- 01:08:30 * Shonikado -Kojiro is left in a white void. 01:08:44 * Shonikado The only thing in front of him is a large tombstone of sorts; it is blank, not text written on it 01:08:47 * Kojiro was heading to OoCia, if I recall correctly. 01:08:49 * Jer-Bed this void is racist 01:08:54 * Shonikado You were, in fact. 01:09:05 * Shonikado Unfortunately the save void intercepted your travelings 01:09:55 * Shonikado And thus Kojiro sits inside the save void, doing nothing particularly interesting. PONY might be yawning 01:09:59 * Kojiro tries to get through said void. 01:10:26 * Shonikado Kojiro passes the tombstone, walking onwards; eventually the world around him begins to fade into view 01:10:35 *** Rock is now known as Rock-Away 01:10:43 * Rock-Away will now sleep. 01:10:49 * Kojiro Goodnight Rock. 01:10:58 * Rock-Away Goodnight gentlemen. 01:11:01 * Shonikado The expansive world of OoCia appears, with you standing near the Gates of OoCia themselves; in the distance ahead you can see Plaza Main, the so called "heart" of OoCia 01:11:05 * Shonikado Rock is wished good-night 01:11:12 * Shonikado He continues to sleep inside PONY. 01:11:37 * Rock-Away curls up next to its large intestine 01:11:44 * Shonikado Kojiro can hear some sort of noise, as a side note; coming from the direction of Plaza Main, it sounds like two people speaking. Yelling, even 01:12:02 * Kojiro heads to said people. 01:12:34 * Shonikado Kojiro begins making his way across the uninteresting parts of OoCia, towards the arched bridge leading up to the elevated platform that is Plaza Main 01:13:05 * Shonikado Plaza Main happens to be placed above a large lake of sorts, held up with four bridges and several pillars 01:13:22 * Kojiro admires the view as he goes. 01:13:36 * Shonikado Water falls off of the sides of it, into the lake, which breaks off into a single river heading east; the Convo River 01:14:11 * Shonikado The source of the water comes from Plaza Main's large fountain, which is in the heart of all of the shops and houses surrounding it. The entire place feels like some sort of old renaissance city 01:14:42 * Shonikado Arriving at the fountain itself, you can see a strange sight; two large mechanical beings seem to be the source of the yelling. Arguing, even 01:15:27 * Kojiro looks at said beings. 01:15:29 * Shonikado Upon closer inspection, one of them is a headless mech of sorts with a transparent chest that a certain grey malivari can be seen inside; the other is a mech with a head, but lacking hands in favor of cannons. An inventor with a candy-cane scarf sits inside the head, visible through the "visor" 01:15:33 * Kojiro Are they recognizable? 01:15:54 * Shonikado Their argument, which you can now hear clearly, seems to consist of them arguing which is worse; heads or hands? Who's on which side should be somewhat obvious. 01:16:16 * Shonikado It's a silly argument. Nearby, a teal popopo sleeps on a bench; he looks like he's having a bad dream of sorts 01:16:36 * Kojiro goes to the people who are arguing. 01:17:07 * Shonikado Kojiro walks up to the large mechs. Both turn to look at Kojiro as he approaches, argument coming to a temporary halt 01:17:26 * Kojiro questions them about their argument, even though he heard it already. 01:18:03 * Shonikado The malivari in the headless mech says that, of all things, heads are the hardest thing to create. 01:18:24 * Shonikado The inventor in the cannon-hand mech retorts, stating hands definitely are. 01:18:38 * Kojiro says that perhaps neither is right 01:18:40 < Malo> heh 01:18:40 * Kojiro . 01:19:00 * Shonikado The malivari begins to say that's ridiculous, but is cut off by the inventor 01:19:11 * Shonikado The inventor states that Kojiro has absolutely no proof to protect his claim. 01:19:25 * Shonikado The malivari considers agreeing with the inventor but decides that'd be ironic and stays silent 01:19:35 * Kojiro asks, what about feet? 01:19:38 * Kojiro Feet are horrible. 01:19:43 * Kojiro Look at them. 01:19:48 * Shonikado They state nobody draws feet these days anyway. 01:19:52 * Shonikado Shoes and boots are the way to go 01:20:00 * Kojiro Make one mistake, and, unlike hands or a head, you get some ugly flipper-type thing. 01:20:01 * Shonikado Both of them do in fact have either shoes or boots 01:20:05 * Kojiro Exactly his point. 01:20:12 * Kojiro Feet are so bad people /refuse/ to draw them. 01:20:20 * Shonikado They consider Kojiro's statement for a moment. 01:20:34 * Shonikado The malivari looks like he has a retort but is to embarrassed to provide it 01:20:39 * Shonikado The inventor is just thinking furiously 01:21:03 * Shonikado Their mechs begin rusting; I'd say "slowly" but compared to how fast things normally rust, this is rather quick 01:21:31 * Shonikado Pieces begin to fall off, clanking against the stone tiles of Plaza Main; eventually they both just fall out of their now-destroyed mechs 01:21:51 * Shonikado The inventor is still thinking furiously. The malivari instead has a look of extreme stupidity on his face 01:21:56 * Shonikado Neither of them says anything. 01:22:17 * Shonikado The sleeping popopo seems to be a bit more calm. 01:23:01 * Kojiro bows to the two. 01:23:07 * Kojiro Alright, solved KP's problem.. 01:23:28 * Kojiro decides to return to KP's i-world to see if he has any more requests, or perhaps a reward. 01:23:34 * Kojiro opens a portal to said place. 01:23:49 * Shonikado A portal to KP's i-world opens up. Sounds of violence cannot be heard 01:24:36 * Kojiro goes to talk with KP. 01:24:51 * Shonikado Kojiro enters the theater once more; however, the entire area is far more illuminated, and the stage itself seems to have expanded a bit, stretching far back now 01:25:20 * Shonikado The dragons and penguin and other popopos from before continue to lounge about in the seat area, seeming to be having a nice time now. The faint sounds of a guitar can be heard coming from the stage... 01:26:14 *** Keeirby ~keeirby@shacops-240D2081.hsd1.fl.comcast.net has quit [Ping timeout] 01:26:15 * Shonikado Upon reaching the stage, Kojiro sees exactly what's changed; essentially, the curtains were drawn back, revealing a nice, large room with a calming shade of red (it's possible) on the walls and several doors leading to other rooms 01:26:28 * Shonikado One of the doors is slightly ajar; the guitar seems to be coming from this one 01:26:32 * Kojiro views the scene. 01:26:42 * Kojiro slowly approaches that door. 01:26:53 * Shonikado Kojiro approaches the door slowly, to the point where he's right in front of it 01:27:00 * Shonikado There is a sign on the door- 01:27:12 * Shonikado -a lightning bolt-shaped one, with "KP" inscribed upon it 01:27:50 * Shonikado Through the crack in the door you can't really see much; at the very least, it doesn't look like anything bad is going on 01:27:58 * Kojiro knocks upon the slightly-open door, asking if he may come in. 01:28:12 * Shonikado The music stops for a moment, followed by an invitation to come in 01:28:19 * Kojiro enters. 01:28:56 * Shonikado Kojiro enters the room; this one is a rather nice shade of blue, though yellow markings line the walls and litter the ceiling. The walls are also covered in, well, guitars; several guitars of several types, hanging as a sort of display 01:29:24 * Shonikado KP sits at the end of the room, facing a desk with a large mirror on it. He sits on a comfortable-looking chair, strumming a guitar that resembles lightning 01:29:35 * Shonikado A slightly torn Shonikado doll hangs out of one of the desk's open drawers. 01:29:46 * Kojiro greets KP, saying that, as he asked, he stopped the argument. 01:30:12 * Shonikado KP, still playing the guitar and still facing away from Kojiro, says that he noticed 01:30:24 * Shonikado He is nonetheless grateful for what you have done 01:30:35 * Shonikado And, as a bonus, you didn't have to hurt anyone by the sounds of it 01:30:46 * Shonikado KP does not add this is a good thing because he may want them perfectly fine when he strangles them later 01:30:58 *** Malo ~Malo@shacops-57FE591.hsd1.nh.comcast.net has quit [Q:- Sleepy time] 01:31:12 * Shonikado He does say, however, that he is unsure how to repay Kojiro 01:31:18 * Shonikado He asks if you have any specific requests 01:31:37 * Kojiro declares that it was no problem; you just have to distract them from whatever they're arguing about. 01:31:48 * Shonikado He "nods" as much as a popopo can 01:32:03 * Kojiro has nothing specific, although assistance on his adventure, supplies for said adventure, or perhaps information of places to go would be appreciated. 01:32:27 * Shonikado KP thinks about the first two, but then questions the last one; where exactly are you going? 01:33:04 * Kojiro That is the problem. So far it's just been freelance adventuring. Does he know of any places that have problems to solve, that will have interesting adventures, or have interesting stuff to find? 01:33:38 * Shonikado KP thinks again. There may be something, he says... 01:34:08 * Shonikado Though it's nothing specific, he states earlier there was an odd sight near the convo river; he hesitates, trying to think of how to describe it 01:34:34 * Shonikado He finds no words and just leaves it at that for description, going on to say he has no idea whose creation it is 01:34:48 * Shonikado Though it's not really much of an adventure, you might find something interesting by investigating it? 01:35:16 * Shonikado KP trails off and decides to address a different subject of repayment; supplies 01:35:23 * Kojiro nods, thanking him for his advice. 01:35:44 * Shonikado He gestures to the various guitars aligning the walls of his room, stating that each one has its own unique ability 01:36:02 * Shonikado He asks if there's any sort of ability you would find helpful on your adventure; perhaps he can lend you a guitar that can do just that? 01:36:20 * Kojiro cannot think of anything specific. Some examples, perhaps? 01:37:03 * Shonikado KP thinks for a moment, running through the various guitars he can bring to mind 01:37:30 * Shonikado One for pacifying creatures, another for creating whirlwinds, one that can lower temperatures 01:37:46 * Shonikado He even mentions one that can shoot Dr. Pepper 01:37:53 * Shonikado He says Kutter gave him that one. It's a silly one. 01:37:55 * Kojiro Pacification might be useful. Could stop a mosnter that he can't fight. 01:37:58 * Kojiro *monster 01:38:02 * Kojiro has /plenty/ of Dr. Pepper. 01:38:06 * Shonikado Plenty indeed 01:38:20 * Shonikado KP hops off of his seat, walking over to the guitars 01:38:51 * Shonikado He picks a rather rounded one; a calming pink and blue design swirls on the "main" part of the guitar, similar to the walls of this room 01:39:14 * Shonikado He hands it out for Kojiro to take. He says that while he doesn't mind letting you borrow it for as long as he likes, it would be appreciated if you took good care of it 01:39:22 * Kojiro nods. 01:39:46 * Kojiro takes the guitar. 01:39:49 * Shonikado He also states that the guitar isn't going to work one hundred percent of the time... Though he figures that much was assumed 01:40:01 * Kojiro Of course. 01:40:22 * Shonikado He strums his own guitar a bit, thinking 01:40:42 * Shonikado He finally addresses your first suggestion of repayment; assistance on your adventure 01:40:53 * Kojiro nods. 01:41:01 * Shonikado He says that as much as he'd like to help you directly, he has things he needs to take care of 01:41:16 * Kojiro Preferably someone who does not mind the very odd situations they get into; even their party system is bizarre. 01:41:25 * Shonikado His performances, for instance. No one else can play the guitar as well as he can. 01:41:31 * Shonikado However, as for someone /else/ assisting... 01:41:41 * Shonikado He suggests the penguin you met earlier. He says his name is William. 01:42:02 * Kojiro thinks. That sounds good. 01:42:07 * Shonikado He says that despite the fact that he isn't well liked in his theater, William is an expert at delivering messages to places you've already been 01:42:18 * Shonikado Among several other things... Such as the notorious Prinny pouch. 01:42:36 * Shonikado He says it's not nearly as good as other Prinny's pouches but it is good support nonetheless 01:42:53 * Kojiro thanks KP very much for his assistance. 01:43:09 * Shonikado KP acknowledges your thanks before hopping back onto his chair 01:43:31 * Kojiro heads out to go talk to William. 01:43:33 * Shonikado Kojiro is treated to a badass guitar rift as he leaves the room, heading back to the audience's dwelling 01:44:01 * Shonikado After a short walk, Kojiro is back in the sea of theater seats. William is easy to pick out among the denizens of this theater; he sticks out like a sore thumb 01:44:04 * Shonikado Ironically, he has flippers 01:44:19 * Kojiro talks to William about his adventure, asking if he would like to come along. 01:44:42 * Shonikado Willaim says that he's quite impressed with the work you've done for KP; not many have managed to get him out of a raged state so quickly 01:44:52 * Shonikado He says he'd be happy to join someone as talented at diplomacy as you are 01:45:21 * Kojiro thanks William for his willingness to join 01:45:33 * Shonikado A quick check: who is in your current party? 01:45:36 * Kojiro PONY goes over to William to put him in the party. 01:45:44 * Kojiro I think only Kojiro and PONY are out at the moment. 01:46:08 * Kojiro Yeah. 01:46:09 * Shonikado William joins your party, the two empty slots getting along just fine 01:46:24 * Shonikado Five-character maximums are really generous. 01:46:45 * Kojiro PONY puts William away. Let him meet the other party members on the way to the next adventure. 01:47:04 * Kojiro Convo river, right? 01:47:18 * Shonikado William meets up with Queen Sara, Stitchkado, Dynamite, and the two Ponies 01:47:20 * Shonikado And yes, Convo River. 01:47:33 * Shonikado Am I missing any party members, not including the still-sleeping Rock and Sara? 01:47:46 * Kojiro opens the portal back to OoCia, which is where that is, right? That sounds like an OoCia place. 01:47:50 * Kojiro Well, there's Belle. 01:47:58 * Shonikado Ah, Belle, right. 01:48:00 * Kojiro Also Hitomi but she can't be talked to at the moment. 01:48:08 * Shonikado Hitomi counts as her own adventuring group, I suppose 01:48:20 * Shonikado But yes; the Convo River is in OoCia, which was actually casually mentioned in the description of Plaza Main 01:48:39 * Kojiro Well, before we head there, since we're on the topic of Hitomi let's see what she's up to. 01:49:13 * Shonikado Hitomi has continued her adventures down the small intestine; now would be a good time to admit the fact that I know almost nothing about the human digestion system, let alone that of PONY's 01:49:31 * Kojiro They were halfway to the one-fifth point (from the one-sixth point, not from the beginning), which is a long way but really not that far into their journey. 01:50:05 * Shonikado After a quick examination of an image provided by the magic land of search engines, I believe we're still in the small intestine. 01:50:26 * Shonikado The colon will come eventually from the looks of it but for now let us deal with what we have 01:50:40 * Kojiro That'll come a long way into this, yeah. 01:50:47 * Shonikado Hitomi has come across nothing of great importance; nothing other than various pigeon feathers, that is 01:51:05 * Shonikado Zephry has been trying to talk to one of the ringworms this entire time; he has not noticed any of Hitomi's findings 01:51:06 * Kojiro Actually, it's cenum, then colon. No idea what the cenum is, though. 01:51:13 * Shonikado The cenum is the optional dungeon. 01:51:15 * Kojiro It's a long tube, I suppose. 01:51:23 * Kojiro Hitomi points out the feathers to Zephry. 01:51:36 * Shonikado Zephry looks; confusedly he states that those definitely are not his. 01:51:43 * Kojiro The cenum is the first half of the large intestine. The colon is the second half. 01:51:54 * Kojiro Hitomi asks the roundworms about the feathers. 01:51:57 * Kojiro They have any idea? 01:52:06 * Shonikado The roundworms or ringworms or ____worms don't seem to have any idea about them either. 01:52:47 * Kojiro Hitomi heads onward, collecting the feathers and keeping an eye out. 01:52:59 * Shonikado Hitomi does keep on collecting feathers as her adventure continues 01:53:35 * Shonikado Back with Kojiro; we pick up after having obtained William in the party, who has just started to discuss with the party members inside PONY who are there for discussion 01:53:52 * Shonikado The Convo River, Kojiro's supposed destination, is located back in OoCia; it seems your portal device will once again come in handy 01:53:54 * Kojiro heads into OoCia again, looking at the river. 01:54:05 * Kojiro opened the portal there already, I believe. 01:54:06 * Kojiro Not sure. 01:54:11 * Kojiro If he didn't, he does so now. 01:54:12 * Shonikado You have now at the very least. 01:54:38 * Shonikado And thus Kojiro arrives at the split of the Convo River; the spot where it divides into two and heads off to its destinations 01:54:52 * Shonikado One of them being, from the looks of it... The Memetic Planes? 01:55:03 * Kojiro looks down both routes, checking for the construction or whatever. 01:55:06 * Shonikado Despite having been destroyed by a paradoxical event, they seem to have reformed. 01:55:15 * Kojiro is not surprised by this. 01:55:29 * Shonikado The other path the river takes leads towards an odd area; though you are not sure what the area is, it looks to be like some sort of sewers entrance 01:55:40 * Shonikado ... Behind you comes a growling noise... 01:55:45 * Kojiro turns around. 01:56:07 * Shonikado Kojiro sees a large door- PONY would recognize it. It's the original door party member from the beginning of this adventure! 01:56:18 * Shonikado ... Except... It looks sort of like a zombie at this point. A zombie door. 01:56:37 * Kojiro decides not to question this. 01:56:46 * Kojiro doubts that the zombie is tamable, either. 01:56:51 * Shonikado A rotted wooden frame with two vine-like arms extending from it surround the deteriorating wooden entrance 01:57:05 * Kojiro summons William and the two ponies into his party. 01:57:15 * Shonikado It has a large keyhole in the center of itself... And you can see what looks like some sort of eye hidden deep inside the keyhole 01:57:28 * Shonikado In fact, this very creature was drawn earlier this day; yesterday to be precise 01:57:55 * Shonikado Regardless of drawings that were posted in certain topics in the "real" world, this door is definitely standing in front of you and looking rather menacing 01:58:21 * Shonikado The two ponies and William are now in your active party, ready for anything! 01:58:37 * Kojiro Which part was it drawn in? 01:58:41 * Shonikado Part 4. 01:59:06 * Kojiro Ah, just found it. 01:59:08 * Kojiro Hm. 01:59:20 * Shonikado Ignore the demonic aura. I decided against that. 01:59:20 * Kojiro tells William to show the group what he can do. 01:59:25 * Shonikado It looks like fire anyway 01:59:53 * Shonikado William begins fishing through his pouch- and pulls out...! 02:00:02 * Shonikado A fishing rod? 02:00:17 * Kojiro Is this a familiar fishing rod? 02:00:18 * Shonikado He begins to question how it fit in his pouch but decides against it 02:00:26 * Shonikado And no, this fishing rod is a generic fishing rod; nothing animate about it 02:00:39 * Shonikado He flings it at the door, who aside from looking menacing has not done anything 02:01:01 * Shonikado It hits the door right in the eye! It screams in pain, grabbing onto the keyhole with both of its arms- 02:01:06 * Shonikado -ripping itself open- 02:01:10 * Shonikado -and an ocean is revealed 02:01:15 * Kojiro Oh dear. 02:01:18 * Shonikado Through the door, that is. 02:01:28 * Shonikado The now-open door that is no longer screaming, only holding itself open 02:01:47 * Shonikado It is a rather generic ocean; you can see a fishing boat connected to a dock, fish leaping out of the water... 02:02:00 * Shonikado William makes a crack about having come prepared 02:02:14 * Kojiro Wait, the ocean is not flooding out? Oh, so it's just a new scene, then. 02:02:16 * Shonikado He waves the fishing rod around in case the joke doesn't get through 02:02:20 * Shonikado it is a new scene, yes. 02:02:31 * Shonikado You could walk through the door and enter it... If that were to be what you wanted 02:02:58 * Kojiro attempts to speak to the door; it /was/ the first recruited party member, althoguh it died soon on. 02:03:00 * Kojiro *although 02:03:06 * Kojiro Wait, no. 02:03:13 * Shonikado Waiting 02:03:18 * Kojiro PONY tries to communicate with it in whatever manner such things communicate. 02:03:37 * Shonikado The door lets go of the two parts of... Itself 02:03:50 * Shonikado The door swings shut, eye visible through the keyhole again 02:04:12 * Shonikado Kojiro hears a strange noise, one rather undefinable but somewhat zombie-ish and door-ish 02:04:22 * Shonikado PONY hears intelligible language that it can understand 02:04:35 * Kojiro What is it talking about? 02:04:39 * Shonikado The door speaks to PONY, asking it what it wants and why it is trying to stick a fishing rod in its eye 02:04:55 * Kojiro PONY apologizes. The growling made its friends assume that it was hostile. 02:05:10 * Shonikado The door growls, stating that it is in fact feeling very hostile 02:05:23 * Kojiro PONY asks why it is showing them this new place. 02:05:24 * Shonikado If it were more mobile it might have tried to attack because it just feels it should be doing that 02:05:29 * Shonikado It then mumbles about zombie habits 02:05:39 * Shonikado The door stops going off on a tangent to answer PONY's new question 02:06:17 * Shonikado The door states that it showed them the new place because that was what they were trying to find. 02:06:31 * Shonikado You opened a door with a fishing rod... I showed you where it belonged. 02:06:46 * Kojiro PONY asks how it would know what they are aft- Ah. Can it lead other places? 02:07:01 * Shonikado It says it can lead to anywhere, possibly, depending you provide the right key 02:07:18 * Shonikado It then says something about brains. It IS a zombie after all it can't help itself 02:07:36 * Kojiro PONY asks if the door would like to rejoin their party. While it'd be carried around from place to place, it'd still be much more mobile than it currently is. 02:07:52 * Kojiro Perhaps they could find a cure for it. 02:08:01 * Shonikado The door considers but eventually declines. 02:08:07 * Kojiro Or a place it'd fit in. There's Sara's castle, after all. 02:08:15 * Kojiro Or KP's stage. 02:08:25 * Shonikado Its adventuring days are over; it feels as if it should be doomed to wander the earth slowly, opening up to wherever people want to go, need to go 02:08:36 * Shonikado It continues speaking in a way comparable to bad poetry 02:08:52 * Shonikado I think that's also a zombie thing but I am unsure 02:09:00 * Kojiro PONY asks if it would like to move to the OoCia square then. There are more people there. 02:09:14 * Shonikado It says that it is already a da- 02:09:15 * Shonikado -brains- 02:09:20 * Shonikado -nger to people. 02:09:31 * Shonikado Being near them might not really help anyone out. 02:09:39 * Shonikado Unless you chained it to the ground or something 02:09:48 * Shonikado Which it goes on to say would be fitting with the whole zombie look 02:10:10 * Kojiro Hm. We could find some chains. If it stays where it is we will come back when we find some. 02:10:26 * Shonikado The door states it really can't wander off much even if it wanted to 02:10:35 * Kojiro It said that it was slightly mobile. 02:10:40 * Shonikado Zombies are inherently slow and so are doors. 02:10:42 * Shonikado It wouldn't get far. 02:10:58 * Shonikado A few yards at best. A football field's length if you take forever 02:11:02 * Shonikado Nothing you can't easily track down 02:11:29 * Shonikado ... Also considering the huge imprints it kind of leaves on the ground 02:11:33 * Kojiro Very well. PONY states that, when the group finds some chains for it, they'll help it get to the square so that it can take people places without harming them. 02:11:38 * Kojiro If that is what it wants. 02:11:50 * Shonikado It says it wants brains, followed by saying it really shouldn't 02:12:01 * Kojiro They'll also look for a cure to zombieism. 02:12:27 * Shonikado The door thanks PONY and the group, before growling at them 02:12:50 * Shonikado Meanwhile, Kojiro is entirely out of the loop, listening to a conversation in indescribable gibberish 02:13:06 * Kojiro PONY nods to the door and leads the party towards the sewer-type structure, which is the new place. 02:13:27 * Kojiro PONY puts Kojiro and William away, leaving only the animal party members out. 02:13:45 * Shonikado PONY approaches the new place, heading down the CONVO river 02:13:58 * Kojiro relaxes where he is, wondering what on earth was going on back there. 02:14:09 * Kojiro Meanwhile, what's Hitomi and her group up to? 02:14:31 * Kojiro They should be 3/4s of the way to the 1/5 mark, from the 1/6 mark. 02:14:33 * Shonikado Hitomi and her group has continued to find more feathers; they have also found small white globs of something dry. 02:14:45 * Shonikado Definitely pigeons. 02:14:54 * Kojiro Poor PONY. Such gross things inside her. 02:15:01 * Shonikado Poor PONY indeed 02:15:14 * Kojiro Hitomi tries to have the worms clean up the mess somehow. Maybe they can spit some goo out or something. 02:15:36 * Shonikado The slightly-tame worm goes in to lick it off. The tame worm manages to stop it because that'd be disgusting 02:15:46 * Kojiro Yeah. 02:15:48 * Shonikado The slightly-tame worm tells the tame worm that they are ringworms. They are inherently disgusting 02:15:50 * Kojiro Hitomi was not hoping for that. 02:15:58 * Shonikado The tame worm says that they should be trying to /fix/ that 02:16:01 * Shonikado Hitomi understands nothing 02:16:05 * Shonikado Wormspeech is confusing 02:16:28 * Shonikado Zephry suggests possibly constructing a sort of feather duster out of the pigeons she has collected, using that to clean the mess? 02:16:39 * Kojiro goes over to the tame worm, reaching inside its mouth. Just her arm, not her whole body. 02:16:43 * Kojiro Hitomi does. 02:16:46 * Shonikado Hitomi does indeed 02:16:56 * Shonikado She reaches inside the tame worm. What she finds I am unsire 02:17:00 * Kojiro She pulls out the magazine, which is rather wet now, plus all the feathers. 02:17:02 * Shonikado *unsure 02:17:07 * Kojiro She'd been using it as an inventory and all. 02:17:12 * Shonikado She has. Hooray! 02:17:33 * Shonikado Hitomi now has all of the feathers she has collected as well as her copy of Fancy Pigeon 02:17:34 * Kojiro She uses the magazine as a paper cloth, more or less, along her way, also using the feathers. 02:17:57 * Kojiro Progress is slowed slightly but at least PONY is being helped. 02:18:07 * Shonikado She manages to clean up part of the mess, making PONY's insides slightly more livable but still not any less disgusting 02:18:17 * Shonikado It is a small intestine. It can't help being disgusting 02:18:20 * Kojiro They are less disgusting. 02:18:24 * Kojiro Comparatively. 02:18:30 * Shonikado After a few minutes of walking, PONY arrives at the new place; a manhole-type door and several grates seem to lead underground, with a large plaque with a title on it 02:18:41 * Kojiro It could be an empty small intestine, excluding the goo, or it could have pigeon mess in it. 02:18:49 * Kojiro One of those is more disgusting. 02:19:03 * Shonikado The title reads "The Gutters", which is slightly disturbing considering the Convo River runs into it 02:19:09 * Kojiro Hm. 02:19:25 * Kojiro PONY cannot open the door or the grates. 02:19:32 * Shonikado Kojiro, on the other hand, can. 02:19:36 * Kojiro is brought back into the party. 02:20:01 * Kojiro opens the door. It's a door, which opens into a room next to this, right, not something below? 02:20:18 * Shonikado It opens into a room; a small room, a dark room 02:20:35 * Shonikado It's rather black and rusted in here, with barely any light showing the manhole in the center of the room on the floor 02:20:36 * Kojiro uses the flashlight, which is totally a part of the portal machine/gun, to illuminate the room. 02:20:41 * Shonikado The room is now well-lit 02:20:46 * Shonikado And slightly more disgusting 02:20:54 * Shonikado The walls and floor are coated with some sort of green slime material 02:20:58 * Kojiro Light does not make things disgusting. 02:21:03 * Kojiro IT does reveal disgusting things, though. Ew. 02:21:08 * Shonikado Of course it does. 02:21:49 * Shonikado The manhole in the center of the room looks like the only way to advance; however it is unknown if this is really something you want to do 02:21:58 * Kojiro So, this manhole is on the ground? 02:22:00 * Shonikado Yes. 02:22:09 * Kojiro decides to postpone this adventure. The animals can't enter anyway. 02:22:15 * Kojiro could use the portal device but... 02:22:21 * Shonikado Kojiro may or may not have made the right decision 02:22:22 * Kojiro would rather ask about this place instead. 02:22:32 * Shonikado Considering this is largely an improv RP I can't really tell which 02:22:49 * Shonikado (at least it /was/ at one point) 02:23:04 * Kojiro closes the manhole again before being removed from the party again as PONY leads the ponies back, so that they can go to the Memetic plains. 02:23:17 * Kojiro meanwhile talks and plans with the other party members, checking on how they're doing. 02:23:41 * Shonikado PONY begins heading towards the Memetic planes; a stray Lelandkitten runs past PONY whose gender I don't think I know anymore 02:23:49 * Shonikado Meanwhile, INSIDE of PONY 02:24:17 * Shonikado Kojiro has discussed with the group. Queen Sara has been watching her kingdom for most of the time, which is completely rebuilt and now running several funerals for those who were lost in the attack 02:24:43 * Shonikado Dynamite and Stitchkado continue to prove themselves to be great friends of sorts, talking about all kinds of things, ranging from politics to how to mess with physics 02:25:01 * Shonikado Belle is busy learning the String Theory 02:25:08 * Shonikado I don't think there's much left for her to learn 02:25:20 * Shonikado Who's teaching her, anyway? 02:25:30 * Kojiro Not sure. 02:25:42 * Shonikado Rock and Sara continue to sleep. 02:25:43 * Kojiro Maybe she's using Sara's mirror to take books from the library. 02:26:22 * Shonikado And that's pretty much what the party is doing 02:26:31 * Kojiro What about William? 02:26:32 * Shonikado I believe PONY, the ponies, and William are still outside 02:26:37 * Shonikado William is inside? Well then 02:26:44 * Kojiro William was put away after the door was met. 02:26:49 * Shonikado William is currently lounging about with nothing much to do 02:27:05 * Shonikado He looks down towards the area leading to the small intestine, possibly considering heading down there 02:27:19 * Kojiro talks with William, trying to learn about him and his abilities. 02:27:34 * Shonikado William opens up quite easily on the subject of what he can do 02:27:54 * Shonikado Aside from the Prinny Pouch, giving him access to an assortment of random items he never knew he had, he can also explode like a normal Prinny 02:28:04 * Kojiro also mentions that he's looking at the item storage area; past the nigh-impassable blockade of explosives PONY ate is where Hitomi went, but Kojiro does not know what is back there. 02:28:06 * Shonikado Though neither are as good as SOME Prinnies can do... 02:28:20 * Shonikado However, to make up for that, William says he's a master at delivering messages to places he's already been. 02:28:36 * Shonikado In fact, that counts any spot he's been to while inside PONY; possibly even spots you went to without him earlier in the adventure? 02:28:55 * Shonikado On the subject of item storage... 02:29:03 * Shonikado Or 02:29:06 * Shonikado Looking 02:29:13 * Shonikado Hold on I am reading what you've said again. 02:29:26 * Shonikado Okay got it 02:29:31 * Kojiro Remember, just into the small intestine is where all the items are crammed. 02:29:49 * Kojiro And all of PONY's explosives, although since Hitomi is in her she doesn't need to eat any more for the time being. 02:29:51 * Shonikado William asks if there's any way to get past the blockade. After all, it might be helpful to have access to all of PONY's insides. 02:30:17 * Kojiro mentions that Hitomi got past it somehow. Maybe he could try, so he can deliver a message to her and get an update on her status? 02:30:38 * Shonikado He says that would probably be a good idea. 02:30:50 * Shonikado He then looks at Kojiro's portal machine that can make portals. 02:30:52 * Kojiro asks William to try now. 02:30:57 * Kojiro has that, yeah. 02:31:21 * Shonikado William says he will try the moment he has a way to get past the items storage area 02:31:54 * Shonikado Which 02:32:04 * Shonikado I suppose he runs off to find out how at this point 02:32:07 * Kojiro Perhaps he can remove some of the explosives near the top of the pile? Hitomi probably shrank past them, but William can use his pouch to put them away. 02:32:14 * Kojiro heads after him to assist in this. 02:32:35 * Kojiro does not intend to pass that so they only need a hole big enough for a Prinny, and Prinnies aren't too big. 02:32:53 * Shonikado William tries this, placing the explosives he collects inside his pouch; possibly even creating a sub-ability later on 02:33:19 * Kojiro tells him /not/ to remove the whole pile. Those should remain there to prevent anyone from getting lost back there. 02:33:27 * Kojiro Or items rolling down. 02:33:41 * Shonikado William decides to listen and not remove the whole pile. 02:33:43 * Kojiro William's the only one who can navigate down there, because Hitomi's already been there. 02:34:06 * Kojiro It would suck to lose all of the items they have, plus Rock and Sara who are stored here becasue they are asleep. 02:34:09 * Kojiro *because 02:34:26 * Shonikado William manages to get through at some point or another. Who knows 02:34:46 * Kojiro So, since we're sending a message to Hitomi, let's check on her. 02:35:11 * Shonikado Hitomi has been standing still for the past ten seconds. So have her teammates. 02:35:17 * Shonikado They discovered something /big/. 02:35:21 * Kojiro Oh dear. 02:36:14 * Shonikado An entire "city" of pigeons, with tee-pees or however you call them constructed out of large feathers. The pigeons fly around from one to another 02:36:43 * Shonikado Each of them wears some sort of clothing considered "fancy"; monocles, ties, bow-ties, and even those odd little things you wear on your shoes that go on their feet due to lack of shoes 02:36:47 * Shonikado Some of them are in suits oh dear 02:37:03 * Shonikado So yes, there is a society of pigeons inside PONY apparently 02:37:11 * Shonikado Be thankful it is not owls, I suppose? 02:37:23 * Kojiro Hitomi goes to talk to the pigeons, making sure the worms are on their best behavior and not eating any. 02:37:48 * Shonikado The pigeons gladly strike up a conversation with Hitomi; several of them at once, even 02:38:02 * Shonikado They ask what exactly she's come here for 02:38:13 * Kojiro Hitomi explains that she is exploring PONY. 02:38:17 * Shonikado They ask who PONY is. 02:38:35 * Kojiro She explains that PONY is the, well, BEAUTIFUL PONY that they are living inside. 02:38:45 * Shonikado They are all suddenly silent 02:38:46 * Kojiro She takes good care of them, doesn't she? 02:38:53 * Shonikado ...Inside a PONY? 02:38:58 * Shonikado They are all confused. So confused 02:39:26 * Kojiro Hitomi explains that this is probably a good thing, since there are no pigeon eaters around them. 02:39:44 * Kojiro In fact, she could get more stuff for them if they do some things for her. 02:39:59 * Shonikado They are still confused as to how they ended up inside a /PONY/ 02:40:17 * Kojiro She has no idea. Anyway, she'll help them if they help her. 02:40:19 * Shonikado One moment you have a great rift in the sky, then you're in some strange land, and then it turns out it's a PONY. So odd, they say 02:40:29 * Kojiro For example, the disgusting pigeon messes. They need to clean up after themselves. 02:40:41 * Kojiro She'd also like to take a nap. Are any of their houses open? 02:40:54 * Shonikado All of the tee-pees are open and large enough to fit Hitomi. 02:41:15 * Kojiro She isn't going to sleep without permission. 02:41:33 * Kojiro So, will they take better care of their home/host, and give her some nice things? 02:41:43 * Kojiro If they do she'll give them the tablet with all the pigeon stuff on it. 02:41:44 * Shonikado They say she is allowed to sleep inside their houses, and will give her some supplies 02:41:51 * Kojiro Plus the slightly dirty magazine. 02:42:07 * Shonikado Upon mention of the tablet, they act a bit surprised 02:42:39 * Shonikado The magazine they do not worry about, but the tablet they state was supposed to be hidden in a secret place by a certain member of their society 02:43:01 * Shonikado So that, in the event they died off in this strange land, there would at least be some record of their existence... 02:43:05 * Kojiro Hm, well, it's hidden inside a worm now. 02:43:19 * Shonikado They say it's probably as good of a hiding place as any inside a PONY 02:43:37 * Kojiro Hitomi asks, if she continues taking care of the tablet, if they'll stop being so messy here. 02:44:01 * Shonikado They say it won't be too hard to create some sort of shiny object to use as a waste disposal device 02:44:16 * Kojiro Hm, is William almost here? 02:44:26 * Kojiro He and his link between Hitomi and everyone else would be nice. 02:44:33 * Shonikado Almost here? He's been listening to this conversation for the past minute! 02:44:42 * Kojiro Hitomi looks over and sees the penguin. 02:44:51 * Shonikado William waves. 02:44:58 * Kojiro Let's skip the introductions and explanations since we both know about them and what they do. 02:45:20 * Shonikado They do in fact get through introductions fast 02:45:49 * Shonikado William has just explained the whole situation of the outside adventure to Hitomi; he asks if she has anything to say to those back on the outside 02:46:17 * Kojiro Hitomi asks William to tell the group that she's fine, and to also send her some stuff. She'll stay in the pigeon village until he gets back to her; anything that could help her explore or help the pigeon society get set up would be appreciated. 02:46:28 * Kojiro She also wants a pith helmet. She /is/ an explorer, after all. 02:46:51 * Shonikado William looks into his pouch for a pith helmet. 02:47:07 * Shonikado Sighing upon finding none, he mumbles about other Prinnies being able to do that kind of thing easily 02:47:16 * Shonikado He accepts Hitomi's requests and heads off 02:47:48 * Kojiro Hitomi meanwhile goes to take a nap inside one of the huts while the pigeons start cleaning up all the stuff they did to PONY. Maybe Zephry can talk with his people as well. 02:48:24 * Kojiro She has the worms come with her so that they don't eat any poor pigeons; while they could live through it, that is a bad way to make good relations. 02:48:42 * Shonikado Zephry feels embarrassed; it seems in his efforts to find a spot to hide the tablet and reading his magazine, he forgot everything about this society 02:48:58 * Shonikado The pigeons have to explain everything all over to him. 02:49:14 * Shonikado They don't blame him; Zephry is rather new. 02:49:52 * Kojiro Hitomi naps in the cleanest pigeon tent she could find. Hm, hey, is this village at the one-fifth mark or her adventure here? 02:50:02 * Shonikado I would say so. 02:50:08 * Shonikado 1/5th sounds like a good spot for a town 02:50:52 * Shonikado And thus Hitomi is sleeping at the 1/5th mark 02:50:55 * Kojiro Alright, Hitomi's napping in Pigeonville. Let's see Team PoNy's adventures into the Memetic Plains. 02:51:23 * Shonikado The team has arrived back in the Memetic Planes; and they have been greeted by a few odd sights 02:51:50 * Shonikado Aside from the Lelandkitties, the TranTotems, and various other meme-related objects that have little to do with the memes themselves, they have discovered what seem to be... Well, how to describe it 02:52:21 * Shonikado There are some "holes" in the ground, which the ground seems to be actively trying to cover up; tendrils of grass extent to wrap over them, stitching itself back together 02:52:35 * Shonikado Some holes are longer than others; more are like tears; one especially large hole was found, which was avoided 02:52:43 * Shonikado They all lead into an expansive black void. 02:52:54 * Kojiro Oh dear. 02:52:57 * Shonikado ... There also seems to be one in the sky, running straight through it... 02:53:09 * Shonikado At least 02:53:11 * Kojiro PONY brings Kojiro out so that he can see this. 02:53:14 * Shonikado All over the Memetic Planes. 02:53:26 * Shonikado This does not extend elsewhere; it's probably limited to this spot 02:53:43 * Kojiro realizes that Ecco and his Heartless may escape; while the plains would hold them for a while they could escape into OoCia. 02:53:44 * Shonikado ... Considering earlier events, could the Memetic Planes be busy fixing itself? 02:53:53 * Shonikado Oh yes there's always Ecco isn't there. 02:54:11 * Shonikado The one you trapped in the black void that were the Memetic Planes at one point; where is he now? 02:54:50 * Shonikado A giant Neimi with boxing gloves can be seen in the distance, very far away 02:54:54 * Kojiro wonders how he can fill these holes. 02:55:06 * Shonikado The holes are filling themselves; slowly patching up, remaking the planes 02:55:31 * Kojiro decides to keep watch for now; he can portal anyone getting out back in. 02:55:51 * Shonikado Kojiro keeps watch for... How long will he spend 02:55:54 * Shonikado *+? 02:56:03 * Kojiro Not too long. Wait, how fast are the holes closing? 02:56:08 * Kojiro has a better idea. 02:56:15 * Shonikado At a slow rate, but fast enough for you to tell they definitely are closing 02:56:45 * Kojiro recruits the more intelligent members of the Memetic Plains. There should be some among them able to contact him if anything comes out, and he can return quickly. 02:57:07 * Shonikado Kojiro is talking about the Memetic Planes here 02:57:14 * Kojiro Not all memes are stupid. 02:57:24 * Kojiro For example, there's the meme about him dodging everything. 02:57:28 * Shonikado All physical incarnations, unfortunately, seem to be something along those lines 02:57:41 * Shonikado You do not find the dodging-everything meme's physical representation. 02:57:45 * Shonikado He probably dodged you 02:57:49 * Kojiro Probably. 02:58:03 * Shonikado You did find a Closure box however 02:58:04 * Kojiro Well, all he needs is enough intelligence to have them contact him if they see something bad. /That/ shouldn't be too hard. 02:58:08 * Shonikado Which is not entirely helpful but is pretty 02:58:19 * Kojiro Hm, can the Closure Box close the holes? 02:58:34 * Shonikado It can pretend to close them. 02:58:37 * Shonikado But never really does 02:59:45 * Kojiro So, are there at least some that will call him if a problem arises? 02:59:48 * Shonikado Meanwhile the holes continue to near patching themselves up 03:00:00 * Shonikado Unfortunately, no... There is nobo- 03:00:09 * Shonikado William pops up and begins giving you a report of Hitomi's message 03:00:27 * Kojiro Oh wow, he can even get out of PONY by himself. He /is/ good at getting places. 03:00:47 * Shonikado William is definitely the man for messages 03:00:59 * Shonikado Unless, of course, it involves the heavens. Poor guy doesn't have much luck with those 03:01:20 * Kojiro has PONY continue exploring, he himself returning with William to PONY's stomach for the planning of how to help Hitomi. 03:01:52 * Shonikado PONY continues to explore around while William and Kojiro retreat into PONY 03:02:05 * Kojiro looks for objects that could assist the pigeon village. What exactly was it they wanted for their disposal thing? 03:02:12 * Kojiro All I remember is "shiny object". 03:02:28 * Shonikado It's common knowledge pigeons crap on everything shiny. 03:02:34 * Kojiro Hm. 03:02:36 * Shonikado Why do you think cars are always a target? 03:02:53 * Kojiro Aha. 03:03:05 * Kojiro takes out one of the largest bombs he can find in PONY. 03:03:28 * Shonikado It is a very large and unlit bomb. Not exactly the shiniest thing around but with a bit of cleaning it could be 03:03:35 * Kojiro dismantles it, hollowing out the shell. While dull on the outside, it's shiny on the inside. 03:03:47 * Shonikado The shiny insides work too. 03:03:53 * Shonikado I don't know how bombs work! :D 03:04:17 * Kojiro shoots a portal into it; the other end opens into an empty void. 03:04:35 * Shonikado "An" empty void? 03:04:41 * Kojiro closes this portal the way he did Sara's mirror, making it sustainable. 03:05:08 * Kojiro A place that, while still in the emptiness below the Memetic Plains, is /far/ away from where Ecco and them were sent. 03:05:25 * Kojiro It's actually also small. 03:05:27 * Shonikado Ah. 03:05:31 * Kojiro Less than a foot in diameter. 03:05:42 * Shonikado Not sure what you're trying to accomplish but I suppose that is fine by me 03:05:47 * Kojiro puts a grating over said hole, burning it together. 03:06:14 * Shonikado Kojiro accomplishes this! Huzzah 03:06:21 * Kojiro then opens yet another portal on the side of the inside of the bomb, this one even smaller; it leads to under the ocean they saw earlier. 03:06:47 * Kojiro has created, basically a self-washing bowl (it'll stay shiny) that the pigeons can't fall into and hurt themselves in. 03:07:00 * Shonikado ... 03:07:03 * Kojiro So they'll leave the rest of PONY alone. 03:07:06 * Shonikado See this is why I like you 03:07:10 * Shonikado You get really creative with these things 03:07:10 * Kojiro thinks with portals. 03:07:40 * Shonikado And thus Kojiro has created brilliance in waste-disposal form 03:07:49 * Kojiro stick this into William's pouch, telling him to deliver it, plus some Dr. Pepper and other foodstuffs, to the girl and her team. 03:07:59 * Kojiro says a pith helmet will have to come later. 03:08:18 * Shonikado William salutes Kojiro and heads off, acknowledging that the obtaining of the pith helmet will be postponed 03:08:51 * Kojiro talks with Belle, seeing what she's learning and trying to determine if she'll be a powerful party member. 03:09:08 * Kojiro Has Team PoNy found anything new in the Memetic Plains? 03:09:19 * Shonikado Team PoNy has found something I will get to in a moment 03:09:22 * Shonikado But for now, Belle 03:09:44 * Shonikado Belle tells Kojiro that among the things she's studied are the workings of this world; apparently Dynamite helped her with that 03:09:57 * Shonikado Despite knowing many, many things, she doesn't actually have any /powers/ due to an unfortunate event 03:10:05 * Shonikado The event being the disappearance, or death, of Ajax 03:10:12 * Kojiro Ah. 03:10:21 * Kojiro says that her knowing how the world works is still useful. 03:10:28 * Shonikado She states that the powers of members of i comes from their creators; without them, they can't really do anything reality-manipulating. 03:10:37 * Shonikado She does agree that knowing the workings of the world is a good thing 03:10:42 * Shonikado Dynamite chimes in and says it sure as FUCK is 03:10:53 * Shonikado He's a bit of a crude piece of dynamite but still valuable I suppose 03:11:13 * Kojiro She can stay where she is and come out in safe areas like Sara's kingdom (queendom?), and they'll keep her safe. 03:11:40 * Shonikado Belle nods and returns to learning- well 03:11:51 * Shonikado There's not much past the String Theory is there. 03:11:57 * Kojiro Hm. 03:12:08 * Kojiro She can try to figure out the stuff that hasn't been discovered yet. 03:12:13 * Kojiro So, Team PoNy? 03:12:17 * Shonikado Yes, Team PoNy! 03:12:30 * Shonikado In their adventures in the Memetic Plains, they have come across... 03:12:37 * Shonikado ...What looks like Jer but probably isn't 03:12:49 * Shonikado His suit is too black and he looks far too evil-ish to be Jer. 03:12:57 * Shonikado In fact he looks like some sort of evil alternate 03:13:04 * Kojiro Oh dear. 03:13:27 * Shonikado PoNy has apparently come face-to-face with the notorious DrShnaps. 03:13:32 * Shonikado Who, as it stands, is not really doing much 03:13:45 * Shonikado Mostly wondering when ponies became a meme 03:13:59 * Shonikado He's a bit behind on the times, you see. 03:14:13 * Kojiro Can he communicate with the PoNiEs? 03:14:36 * Shonikado Of course not. Ponies don't speak BusinEnglisssh 03:14:41 * Shonikado Or whatever DrShnaps speaks 03:14:45 * Shonikado Neither does PONY. 03:14:52 * Shonikado And suddenly 03:15:04 * Shonikado DrShnaps creates the concept of being able to understand PONY language 03:15:21 * Shonikado Oh so that's why he's here. 03:15:22 * Kojiro PONY asks him who he is, as she is rather new to this whole place. 03:15:36 * Shonikado DrShnaps says that he is the creator of all that is and ever will be. 03:16:15 * Shonikado And 03:16:19 * Shonikado That's kind of all he says 03:16:42 * Kojiro PONY finds this unlikely, but asks him if he knows anything about the holes in the ground. 03:17:05 * Shonikado He says that he created those holes. He totally did. He made everything 03:17:20 * Kojiro Can he close the holes to prove it? 03:17:37 * Shonikado DrShnaps creates the concept of doubtless belief 03:17:50 * Shonikado PONY, however, manages to avoid being affected 03:18:02 * Shonikado How this happens is not understood but PONY avoids it regardless 03:18:36 * Shonikado DrShnaps goes on, at this point, to admit he did not make the holes, since he can't trick PONY into thinking anything 03:18:44 * Kojiro Hm. 03:18:52 * Shonikado And then moves on to say the holes weren't really created at all 03:18:54 * Shonikado More of a side effect. 03:19:12 * Shonikado With the Memetic Planes reduced to Null, it had to begin to patch itself up 03:19:20 * Shonikado Which it has done a miraculous job of so far, almost done 03:19:22 * Kojiro Hey, since DrShnaps created the concept of talking to PONY, can Kojiro also communicate like that? 03:19:48 * Shonikado That is, in fact, the case 03:19:58 * Shonikado At least, for now...? 03:20:08 * Kojiro Hm. 03:20:31 * Kojiro PONY tells Kojiro, quietly enough so that DrShnaps can't hear, that there's a crazy man in a suit outside. 03:20:40 * Shonikado As it turns out, all of the holes and rips have almost completely patched themselves up 03:21:14 * Kojiro PONY then asks DrShnaps if he has any chains, or a pith helmet. 03:21:50 * Shonikado DrShnaps invents the pith helmet. 03:21:57 * Shonikado And what a glorious pith helmet it is 03:22:02 * Kojiro PONY eats it. 03:22:40 * Shonikado DrShnaps then invents... Some sort of odd looking device. It seems to look like some sort of gun and large glove fused together 03:22:50 * Shonikado It is covered in chains and from the looks if it... Can it /fire/ them? 03:22:59 * Kojiro PONY eats that too. 03:23:02 * Kojiro PONY asks the man if he could help them; they're trying to do things like fix the Memetic Plains, help people, and generally have adventures. 03:23:32 * Shonikado DrShnaps invents the concept of being bored with your discussion. 03:23:36 * Shonikado And he is suddenly gone 03:23:51 * Kojiro PONY decides to leave and go get the door into town. 03:24:01 * Kojiro Has William arrived in Pigeonville yet? 03:24:10 * Shonikado William has /been/ in pigeonville for a while. 03:24:21 * Kojiro Ah. Been letting Hitomi rest, then?? 03:24:21 * Shonikado As it goes, William will generally be there by the time you remember to ask about him 03:24:26 * Kojiro *-? 03:24:29 <@Kojiro> me Ah. 03:24:31 * Kojiro Ah. 03:24:41 * Kojiro Hitomi wakes up, feeling better. 03:24:48 * Shonikado He has in fact been letting Hitomi get her sleep; tired adventurers need sleep! 03:24:53 * Shonikado Narrators do not, however 03:24:58 * Shonikado They can trek onwards on the weekends 03:25:25 * Shonikado William heads over to the now-awake Hitomi and tells her of Kojiro's message 03:25:27 * Kojiro She asks him about stuff; get the fountain/birdbath/disposal set up and all. 03:25:36 * Shonikado He also apologizes for the lack of a pith helmet 03:25:52 * Shonikado Then he proceeds to get the oddly awesome portal toilet thing set up 03:26:01 * Kojiro Hitomi is disappointed by the lack of a helmet, but glad that there is such a great thing to keep the pigeons from being gross inside PONY. 03:26:09 * Kojiro PONY does not deserve that treatment. 03:26:26 * Shonikado The device is set up and functional! The pigeons rejoice and immediately begin using it thank god it is not near Hitomi you don't want to see this 03:26:30 * Shonikado William looks away 03:26:44 * Kojiro talks to the pigeons /not/ near this disgusting site. Ew. 03:26:58 * Kojiro did not realize what would happen when that was set up. 03:27:03 * Kojiro *Hitomi talks to the pigeons 03:27:12 * Kojiro *sight 03:27:19 * Kojiro She asks them what supplies they have. 03:27:42 * Shonikado They tell Hitomi they they're rather low on supplies; some of their birdfood managed to get taken through the rift with them but other than that they're rather low 03:27:52 * Shonikado They do not mention the instance of cannibalism recently 03:28:01 * Shonikado It's a rather touchy subject 03:28:02 * Kojiro Hm. 03:28:27 * Kojiro Hitomi promises to have William ask about a supply of food for Pigeonville. 03:28:49 * Shonikado They thank Hitomi for all she's done so far for them. 03:29:08 * Kojiro She meanwhile takes her own supplies, which unfortunately are mostly just Dr. Pepper, from William, once again taking advantage of her worms' ability to store things safely. 03:29:43 * Shonikado And thus Hitomi manages to do just that 03:29:56 * Kojiro She has him head back to Kojiro, telling him that Pigeonville needs food, and she needs her helmet, but that otherwise everything is good. 03:30:23 * Kojiro She thanks him for her help, then heads off herself, deeper into PONY. 03:31:00 * Shonikado Hitomi treks onwards, 1/5th of PONY's expansive dungeon finished with already 03:31:17 * Kojiro 1/5 of the first part. 03:31:20 * Shonikado And William heads on back. Hooray. 03:31:25 * Shonikado 1/5th of the fiOh wow 03:31:27 * Kojiro There's still the large intestine, which has two parts. 03:31:34 * Kojiro This is the small one. 03:31:36 * Shonikado So 1/15th of the whole way...? 03:31:45 * Kojiro Hm. 03:31:54 * Kojiro I'll figure out how the scales relate to each other later. 03:32:01 * Shonikado Considering that we are in a PONY 03:32:02 * Kojiro I don't think that's it exactly. 03:32:19 * Shonikado Disproportionate lengths are forgivable 03:32:30 * Shonikado Anyway, back with the group in the Memetic Planes... 03:32:50 * Shonikado ...There is no trace of the holes and tears anymore. They've all been entirely patched. 03:33:26 * Kojiro Actually, the small intestine is much longer, if not as wide, than the large intestine. 03:33:58 * Shonikado Odd. But irrelevant right now! Intestine speech is also kind of creepy 03:33:58 * Kojiro http://www.umext.maine.edu/images/horseguts.gif 03:34:07 * Shonikado Wh- 03:34:08 * Shonikado ... 03:34:13 * Shonikado (k) 03:34:17 * Kojiro PONY is pleased to see that the holes are gone, and, since she can now tell Kojiro stuff, tells him this. 03:34:23 * Kojiro Google reveals strange stuff. 03:34:26 * Shonikado PONY finds she cannot! 03:34:34 * Kojiro Oh dear. 03:34:41 * Shonikado On a totally unrelated note, DrShnaps left a bit ago 03:34:49 * Shonikado ... /Totally/ unrelated. 03:34:57 * Kojiro Hm. 03:35:13 * Kojiro PONY spits Kojiro out and shows him that the holes are gone then. 03:35:21 * Kojiro has his chain gun thing still. 03:35:23 * Shonikado Kojiro sees this. Huzzah! 03:35:30 * Kojiro rides PONY back to the door then. 03:35:44 * Shonikado It's like a chain glove/gun. You wear it on your hand like some sort of maybe-buster-cannon of sorts 03:35:59 * Shonikado ... Odd that you have that without Shnaps... 03:36:10 * Shonikado Perhaps only physical things can remain when he's gone 03:36:29 * Shonikado Regardless, you begin making your way back to the door 03:36:48 * Shonikado ... And after a long bit of intermission... 03:36:54 * Kojiro At least PONY can still understand human speech. She's always had that ability. 03:37:06 * Shonikado You arrive. It is not where you found it; it's about thirty yards away at this point 03:37:35 * Shonikado Even if it went farther there's still the trail it left in the ground, like a footprint but larger and wider and continuous 03:37:56 * Kojiro PONY tells it that they have chains for it. Can it let her move it to the village? 03:38:10 * Shonikado The door growls before saying that yes, it would be willing to be moved. 03:38:24 * Kojiro Will it attack her friends? 03:38:35 * Shonikado It makes no promises; you'll have to be careful, it says 03:38:46 * Shonikado Then it says no, don't be careful, let me eat you- 03:38:53 * Shonikado -dammit being a zombie sucks sometimes 03:39:21 * Kojiro PONY moves the people inside her stomach into the storage area in front of the explosive wall. The door won't be able to get them then. 03:39:23 * Kojiro *there 03:39:41 * Shonikado Huzzah for planning 03:39:52 * Kojiro And the predictable happens, PONY heading for town with a door inside her, two ponies following her, and a very confused Kojiro riding her. 03:40:32 * Kojiro Does William reach the group again? 03:40:40 * Shonikado He just has, actually. 03:40:56 * Kojiro If he does he should get Hitomi's helmet, then. What supplies that aren't Dr. Pepper do we have? 03:41:16 * Shonikado Uh... 03:41:18 * Shonikado ... We have... 03:41:19 * Shonikado ... 03:41:24 * Shonikado A... Guitar... And... 03:41:29 * Shonikado Wow we're lacking. 03:41:39 * Kojiro Maybe he can give the pigeons Dr. Pepper? 03:41:57 * Shonikado I suppose. 03:41:58 * Kojiro Let him drop some of that off at Pigeontown before giving Hitomi her helmet. 03:42:31 * Kojiro On the topic of Hitomi let's see her. She's moving from the one-fifth mark for the one-fourth mark, but she's only about a fifth of the way there. 03:42:53 * Shonikado Nothing interesting, unfortunately 03:42:55 * Shonikado :| 03:43:13 * Kojiro Not even finding things? 03:43:23 * Shonikado Nnnnope. 03:43:34 * Shonikado The pigeon society is behind you; you've just left, even 03:43:42 * Kojiro Well, she continues her journey. 03:43:55 * Kojiro Back to the party. 03:44:18 * Shonikado The party is busy moving the door, I believe. Something along those lines 03:44:36 * Kojiro Yeah. PONY ate the door and is heading back to OoCia square. 03:45:00 * Kojiro The ponies follow her and Kojiro sits on her back, still not quite getting what's going on here. 03:45:10 * Shonikado Pony heads up the eastern bridge of Plaza Main, passing several stores and houses to get to the main square 03:45:59 * Kojiro PONY, in the main square, sets the door sown somewhere that he can be useful to people. 03:46:04 * Kojiro *down 03:46:27 * Kojiro Kojiro, not wanting the door to get people, uses the chain gun to chain it down. 03:46:44 * Shonikado The door, near the plaza fountain, is now chained to the ground 03:46:52 * Shonikado Kojiro finds the chaingunglove works surprisingly well 03:47:20 * Kojiro So, the door is in a place where, apart from its zombieitis, it'll be happy? 03:47:27 * Shonikado Yeeeeup. 03:47:40 * Kojiro That's good. 03:47:53 * Kojiro PONY asks the door if it knows of any places they would like to visit. 03:48:21 * Shonikado The door states it really doesn't know any places. 03:48:33 * Shonikado It can only take you to the places where your "key" leads. 03:48:44 * Kojiro Hm. 03:49:27 * Kojiro PONY, by the way, let all the people in her back into the main room/her stomach/where they usually hang out. 03:49:59 * Shonikado Alright then. 03:50:11 * Kojiro Let's see, key, key... 03:50:54 * Kojiro PONY shows the door a can of Dr. Pepper. 03:51:10 * Shonikado Dynamite and Stitchkado continue to have a fascinating discussion while Queen Sara dozes off whilst watching the Kingdom of Hearts 03:51:17 * Shonikado Meanwhile the door is shown a can of Dr. Pepper. 03:51:30 * Shonikado Nothing happens 03:51:40 * Shonikado Probably because showing a door a key never did anyone any good. 03:51:56 * Kojiro She sticks it in the keyhole then. 03:52:24 * Shonikado It is stuck in the door's "eye"/keyhole; it screeches in pain, which is probably what it's supposed to do at this point, and grabs the keyhole with both arms and opens itself 03:52:40 * Shonikado Kutter's i world is seen through the door; the Dr. Pepper town to be specific 03:52:49 * Shonikado Still depressingly empty 03:52:58 * Kojiro steps back, letting the doors close. 03:53:03 * Kojiro PONY does. 03:53:10 * Shonikado Of course 03:53:47 * Shonikado The door is shut and you don't have much to do from here it seems 03:53:55 * Kojiro Hm, no real keys yet. 03:54:06 * Shonikado ... Yeeeeah, about... th...nevermind 03:54:07 * Kojiro Only have items that'll take us to places we've been. 03:54:15 * Shonikado The narrator whistles a bit 03:54:20 * Kojiro is tired, so if he's missing something, please explain. 03:54:30 * Shonikado Weeeell 03:54:38 * Shonikado I figured one of your party members might be, ehm 03:54:45 * Shonikado A little helpful on the subject of keys 03:55:33 * Kojiro ...Sara? She's the one from Kingdom Hearts. 03:55:38 * Shonikado :D 03:56:10 * Kojiro Pony brings Queen Sara out into the party, which brings us up to five again. 03:56:25 * Shonikado Queen Sara, who was dozing off, is now (somewhat) alert 03:57:11 * Shonikado She doesn't exactly know what you're trying to get at here, unfortunately, as you have explained not-much 03:57:37 * Kojiro can't really explain. 03:57:41 * Kojiro Only PONY can. 03:57:48 * Kojiro PONY points at the door with her noce. 03:57:55 * Kojiro *nose 03:57:58 * Shonikado Queen Sara looks towards the door. 03:58:14 * Shonikado Due to her nature with key involvement, the sign of a giant keyhole is rather obvious-ish 03:58:40 * Shonikado She asks PONY if she wants her to unlock the... Odd, for the lack of a better word, door 03:59:00 * Kojiro PONY nods. 03:59:30 * Shonikado She takes out her heart-covered keyblade, wondering if it's the right one for this 03:59:49 * Shonikado She sticks it into the keyhole; the door's usual antics begin and it pulls itself open... 03:59:55 * Shonikado ...Leading to Sara's i-world. 03:59:58 * Shonikado Hm 04:00:09 * Kojiro Hm. 04:00:13 * Kojiro We can get tehre normally. 04:00:14 * Shonikado To be fair it's covered in hearts 04:00:18 * Kojiro *there 04:00:27 * Shonikado There's not much else to be expected from a key like that... 04:00:48 * Shonikado Queen Sara asks PONY the point of this. 04:00:57 * Shonikado After all, like you've said, it's possible to get to her world already... 04:01:14 * Kojiro PONY figured that, since she was a key girl, she may be able to make the door lead somewhere now. 04:01:16 * Kojiro *new 04:01:26 * Kojiro By the way, Queen Sara can understand the PONY? 04:01:40 * Shonikado Being a women, fortunately, yes. 04:01:47 * Shonikado I am sorry but this world is rather sexist 04:02:14 * Shonikado So has PONY mentioned the whole deal with the door and keys? 04:02:30 * Kojiro Yep. 04:03:07 * Shonikado Queen Sara states that she has one other keyblade, back at her castle; there were more but they're gone at the moment 04:03:23 * Shonikado She does not explain why and rather heads through the door to get to her castle, probably to retrieve this second keyblade 04:03:29 * Kojiro Let's go to her castle, then, and Yeah. 04:03:34 * Kojiro Party follows her. 04:03:43 * Kojiro Hm, William give Hitomi her helmet yet? 04:03:49 * Kojiro And the pigeons their Dr. Pepper. 04:03:57 * Kojiro *? 04:03:59 * Shonikado Hitomi has received one pith helmet! 04:04:05 * Shonikado And the pigeons? Several bottles of Dr. Pepper 04:04:08 * Shonikado Cans, even. 04:04:43 * Kojiro Hitomi happily wears her explorer's helmet, going deeper into this adventure place. Anything new here? 04:05:03 * Shonikado No, not yet... Hitomi's adventures seemed to be more interesting in the beginning. 04:05:11 * Kojiro That they did. 04:05:30 * Shonikado She's going where no one has dared go before; things are starting to get progressively lamer as she enters the uncharted territory 04:05:31 * Kojiro Huh, is she so far in that even the magic stuff somehow getting in here isn't this far? 04:05:33 * Shonikado Ironic, actually 04:05:38 * Kojiro Indeed. 04:05:46 * Kojiro Well, her progress should at least be faster now. 04:05:52 * Shonikado Huzzah. 04:06:32 * Shonikado And so, Queen Sara has entered her castle; she is now heading to the basement 04:06:58 * Shonikado An eerie purple glow illuminates the walls as she descends a spiral staircase around a deep, cylinder-shaped room 04:07:01 * Kojiro follows with the rest of the party. 04:07:31 * Shonikado At the bottom of the staircase is a pedestal; and on the pedestal rests a keyblade 04:08:11 * Shonikado It looks a lot like the keyblade Queen Sara already has, but with a more black and purple color scheme and more curvy designs decorating it 04:08:20 * Kojiro Interesting. 04:08:29 * Shonikado Oddly enough, the purple glow isn't coming from the keyblade itself, but rather just some of the lights around it 04:08:38 * Shonikado The keyblade IS glowing, though... Sort of... 04:08:40 * Shonikado It's more like 04:08:45 * Shonikado Rather than giving off light 04:08:50 * Shonikado Light around it seems to fade 04:08:54 * Shonikado As if it's glowing black or something. 04:09:07 * Shonikado Kind of odd yes but there you go 04:09:22 * Shonikado Queen Sara takes the keyblade; the purple lights around the room dim and she heads up the staircase again 04:09:28 * Kojiro asks Sara what sort of keyblade this is. 04:09:36 * Kojiro follows, with the party. 04:10:09 * Shonikado Queen Sara tells Kojiro that it is a sort of anti-keyblade compared to the one she has; while hers is infused with heart powers, this one... It's more of a heartless keyblade. 04:10:22 * Kojiro asks if it's safe to have that thing. 04:10:41 * Shonikado It is, in fact, safe for her to handle; it's just like every powerful weapon ever 04:10:45 * Shonikado In the right hands, you are fine 04:10:47 * Shonikado In the wrong? 04:10:51 * Shonikado Not so much. 04:10:57 * Kojiro What about the door it will unlock? 04:11:08 * Kojiro If it's a negative thing, and the positive one goes to her world... 04:11:16 * Shonikado Queen Sara says that she has, to be honest, no particular idea 04:11:50 * Shonikado The group leaves the castle and heads for the open doorway leading to Plaza Main 04:11:52 * Kojiro Hmm... 04:11:59 * Kojiro Want to save here? 04:12:02 * Kojiro I am tired. 04:12:04 * Shonikado Not here. 04:12:09 * Kojiro Alright. 04:12:11 * Shonikado Well 04:12:15 * Shonikado Considering that... 04:12:21 * Shonikado ...? 04:12:29 * Shonikado Oh dear the world itself has decided for me 04:12:38 * Kojiro Tombstone again? 04:12:39 * Shonikado You've wandered into the save void 04:12:49 * Shonikado The tombstone stands before you.

First time to get creative with the portal machine was for a fancy fountain for pigeons. 04:14:29 <%Shonikado> Heh 04:14:31 <@Kojiro> Not "things to do". 04:14:37 <@Kojiro> "Things to do with the portals". 04:15:13 <%Shonikado> It is a nice device, yes 04:15:20 <%Shonikado> although constantly I worry you're going to gamebreak with it 04:15:28 <@Kojiro> Also need to plan what happens when Hitomi gets to the end of where she's going, unless you want to plan that as well. 04:15:36 <@Kojiro> Something actually interesting needs to happen there. 04:15:45 <@Kojiro> Shonikado: Well, I did get rid of Ecco but apart from that... 04:15:58 <%Shonikado> I'm actually fine with the getting rid of Ecco bit 04:16:07 <%Shonikado> I'm just worried that 04:16:13 <%Shonikado> now that I'm sort of /planning/ things at times 04:16:24 <%Shonikado> you'll eventually break something I actually intended to do 04:16:39 <%Shonikado> but blarg 04:16:41 <@Kojiro> Hm. 04:16:44 <%Shonikado> that'd be fun anyway, wouldn't it? 04:16:52 <@Kojiro> Indeed. 04:16:54 <%Shonikado> I mean, if it goes as a sort of 04:17:02 <%Shonikado> game-break and off-the-rails kind of thing 04:17:12 <%Shonikado> rather than just skipping things 04:17:30 <%Shonikado> also I still live under constant fear of running out of mind settings 04:17:35 <%Shonikado> There is only so much you can do! 04:17:49 <@Kojiro> Indeed. 04:18:09 <@Kojiro> Well, it's mostly a silly, fun time waster thing. 04:18:12 <@Kojiro> So... 04:18:15 <@Kojiro> Hm, I don't know. 04:18:21 <%Shonikado> :D 04:18:22 <%Shonikado> Anyway 04:18:23 <@Kojiro> Anyway, make sure it's all logged and stuff I guess. 04:18:26 <%Shonikado> so have you seen my new avatar 04:18:34 <%Shonikado> and yes thank you for reminding me to log I almost forgot 04:18:45 <@Kojiro> Yes. 04:18:50 <@Kojiro> Don't recognize it though. 04:19:31 <%Shonikado> Of course you don't 04:19:35 <%Shonikado> if you did it'd ruin the fun 04:19:50 <@Kojiro> Hm. 04:19:50 <%Shonikado> Relating to that avatar, though 04:19:54 <%Shonikado> You know the design I made for Space? 04:19:58 <@Kojiro> Yes. 04:20:04 <%Shonikado> I think I subconsciously ripped off part of that thing's face for my design 04:20:26 <%Shonikado> Sure, mine's like a giant eye screen that splits open, and the "horns" aren't as large or shaped entirely like that but 04:20:34 <%Shonikado> It feels like I really did sort of take the design D: 04:20:41 <%Shonikado> which sucks because I liked the one I made 04:20:47 <@Kojiro> It's fine. 04:21:08 <%Shonikado> :| 04:21:14 <@Kojiro> Anyway, I need to get to sleep. 04:21:17 <%Shonikado> Alright, night 04:21:41 <@Kojiro> Goodnight everyone, although I doubt anyone besides Shonikado is still here. 04:21:44 *** Kojiro ~Kojiro@4CE4B67D.918B3271.3A38F67A.IP has quit [Q:- ChatZilla 0.9.85 [Firefox 3.5.3/20090824101458]]
