[OOC] The Life and Times

[Yahtzee]

I bloody love the IT crowd! I haven't watched it in like yonks though but still... maybe my subconscious was all like... duuuuude.

Oh wait we moved on from there like ages ago. Better get a post or something up before the inevitable happens.

[TheIrishJJ]

@Emma Can vampires drink dragon blood? Or is it poisonous for them?

[TheIrishJJ]

@SomeoneSomewere I was thinking of making a second character, does Triton want a dragon friend/roommate?

[Emma]

@TheIrishJJ They can drink it...but it would be the equivalent of a human drinking batteries acid mixed with a cocktail of bleach & cyanide. Makes vampires sick, and they have a 85% of dying from it. Its a painful nasty death too.

[TheIrishJJ]

@EmmaThanks! I guess Triton will know he's safe...

History/bio:
Gabriel was born to a strong and proud mother who taught him everything she knew about being a Dragon and about their long and wonderful heritage, it wasn't until he started reading books when he was a child that he found that dragons with black scales were considered an abomination to nature. Crying he asked his mother if it was true, if they were supposed to exist? She scooped him up into her protective arms and dried his tears, "Little one...with scales as black as night...those that call us evil...they fear what they do not understand." It was rare for them to see other dragons and when they did most times it did not go well, his mother met her demise when the boy was 15 she was killed by a group of humans called the huntsmen, her sacrifice was what allowed Gabriel to live, he escaped and went to a place where he could study about his people and about the mysterious clan called The Huntsmen. Tellmore was a place he could live and learn in safety, he got a job as an apprentice in a pawn shop while going to Gringore to learn everything he could about the wonderful world his mother had told him of. In just five years time Gabriel owned the Pawn shop and was deep in study but nothing was coming of it...it was as if The Huntsmen didn't even exist.

Just a heads up, I'm on the gulf of Texas and we've got flood/tornado warnings, so my electricity might go out an mess with my response times.

@corrosive I'm on my mobile, but I should get a reply up tonight, as long as the electricity/internet holds up. ^.^

[Emma]

@Narcotic Dollie I lived through hurricane Ike. No electricity for like two weeks, and no internet for like a month. Have Fun. Stay Safe.

@Narcotic Dollie

Woah woah woah, hold up, hang on, just a moment here. [@NarcoticDollie] Has like flood and tornado warnings? Is this like a normal thing there? I mean like is no one else freaking out about this? How is everyone not hitting like freaking out? Are you? I mean is everyone crying and screaming and it's just calm on this forum? That must be it right because like freaking flood and bloody tornados and all you say is like it might mess with response times? I mean like I love your posts and all but if youve got like full blown mother of earth natural disasters going down there like response times is what worries you?

Seriously? Just me? Whatevs bra but seriously ND, even though you aren't a doily (I never forgive... although I do forget) be safe and stuff.

[Yahtzee]

Okay so I did just notice Emma's response so it's nice to know I'm not entirely alone here. My bad.

[Emma]

@YahtzeeAmerica is a special place. Full of danger, and obesity. Depending on the season and what part of the country you live in, we've got: Earthquakes, tornadoes, shark attacks, blizzards, hurricanes, flooding, scorpions, and tsunamis.

[makarov]

Yeah mother nature hates our guts. But we're used to her ridiculousness now lol

[makarov]

Its almost like the entire country was built on ancient Indian burial grounds...

[Emma]

@SomeoneSomewere Writing up a reply for Jack & Marceline convo. FYI she goes by Lennox, and has most likely instilled that in Ariel, if she ever called her otherwise.

[corrosive]

@Narcotic Dollie You're perfectly fine, just worry about staying safe. I used to live in Florida, hurricanes are gnarly and drab and totally not worth the time. 8)

[ramblingbard]

@Emma Sorry, my bad. I'll go edit, because Ariel would refer to her by whatever name she introduced herself as.

Also, @Narcotic Dollie stay safe. Hope it's not as bad as it may seem. I know we get plenty of flood warnings in my area that sometimes end up being just caution. Last time I had mother nature huffing and hawing in my area....I slept through it. Was a tornado that tore through a neighborhood literally a stone's throw from my house. Like, three streets from me. Then there was the earthquake I slept through...I miss all the fun stuff.

[TheIrishJJ]

@Emma Sorry that I keep asking you questions. Since a vampire's heart doesn't beat, does that mean that they don't need oxygen? Would that then mean they can do stuff like go underwater without the need for air?

Also, have you read the Vladimir Todd series? Your vampire conversion is similar if not the same as that. It's the method I prefet, though.

[SomeoneSomewere]

@Yahtzee @TheIrishJJ Sorry for the late post, been rather busy all day.

[Narcotic Dollie]

I mean, what can I say, Imma badass. :P No, but in all seriousness it's not even that bad, the city just flooded three weeks ago and all this rain coming in probably means we'll flood again. My house is on high ground, so I doubt I'll get flooded, but if I lose electricity/interent it will take foreeeeeeever to get fixed because the power/phone company won't be able to get to the problem. Y'know, because, water and stuff.

I lived through hurricane Ike. No electricity for like two weeks, and no internet for like a month. Have Fun. Stay Safe.@Emma

I lived through Ike too! I was only out of power for like a week though. Rita was the one that kept me in the dark for like two weeks, but my school closed down and we never had to make it up, so I kinda liked that one. Played a lot of game-boy that hurricane. :) Also, if I don't reply for like a week, you have my full permission to kill off my character, so she doesn't stall your game!

You're perfectly fine, just worry about staying safe. I used to live in Florida, hurricanes are gnarly and drab and totally not worth the time. 8) @corrosive

Thanks for being so understanding! I just got my post up.

Hope it's not as bad as it may seem. I know we get plenty of flood warnings in my area that sometimes end up being just caution.

You must be a really heavy sleeper! And yeah, the weather people do get a little over excited about this stuff, so I'm not super worried. Plus, my hurricane survival pantry is pretty fierce, so I think I'll survive. :D

[Sixsmith]

I actually didn't feel an earthquake when I lived in Arizona. Man, everyone was like, "THAT WAS A PRETTY CRAZY EARTHQUAKE GUYS, ROIGHT? ROIGHT?" And I just stood there wondering how I missed something so big cause I know I hadn't napped or nothing. It was disappointing.
