    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    The cuddle was unexpected, unasked-for, but not unwelcome. It had... been a while. Gods, it had been a while. "If he was even murdered, maybe? Wait, nah, if there's a livin' murderer in our group, how 'bout that?"

    Jesse snapped his fingers. "Fuckin' great idea, Lee. Have ya got a charge of yer power left fer the day? Try it now, if y'can!"

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    This... was nice. Jesse closed his eyes, leaned back, and gave a long, rattling sigh of satisfaction. He'd hardly taken a breath all week, and it wasn't even unusual for him. It was about time he had some enjoyable company, and... this was that. For once. Even without his proper telepathy to...

    Spinda Cafe

    Luz clapped lightly. "Oh, I like the sound of that. Were you the one drinkin', or the guards?" As Kate replied, she signalled Spinda for some razz brandy liqueurs. "Afore you ask, I've only existed fer a few weeks. No time fer achievements that ain't shared with the whole team. 'Course, the...

    Spinda Cafe

    Luz laughed at that, and there was an electric spark to the sound. "My host is Luxio Brisa Escarpa, a ranger from a world far behind this one in technological and societal development. She's a brave lil' soul, but no friends back where she's from. I have no real counterpart. I'm a myth." Luz...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse maintained an expression of dry bemusement as Lee did his best to pet him via his ears of all things, as a deity rubbed lotion into a fucking zangoose kid, and... and Rally did whatever the fuck Rally was doing. "Y'know what, I think I've been tense fer nigh on thirty years. Would ya give...

    Spinda Cafe

    Luz nodded, still smiling away, and sipping at her drink as Kate spoke. "Sounds like y'know how to handle yerself. We need more of that in the posse, if'n you ask me. Think of this as another of yer jobs, with pay in the form of all-inclusive bed 'n' board fer the duration. And get used to...

    Spirits' Edge

    Jesse He watched his daughter go, with the Voice of Life from another world and the human in poochyena form who somehow had an answer for everything. He took a step towards them, as if a path existed for him between this dream and the place from which they'd contacted him. But such a path did...

    Dusk: "That bitch Veracity has it out for me. Sriracha might be a prick but if he says something at least I know he means it." Jesse: "Any human could be... dangerous. Best not to tell 'em anythin' until they've proven they can be trusted." Q: Have you ever been betrayed? How did it happen?

    Spinda Cafe

    Luz took a sip of her drink. Hot, fruity, notes of some spices she wasn't familiar with, served with nomel berry slices, and definitely alcoholic, not that she could get the benefits of that. (Nor did she need them!) "Mm. Yeah, I can't say I dislike that. Very pleasant. Taste much like yer...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse allowed his mind to drift a little as he scratched at Lee's chin and cheek fur. The wolf let on what he wanted so easily, it was effortless to make him happy. That made... a nice goddamn change from Jesse's usual social interactions. And all without proper mindreading. What a strange and...

    Spinda Cafe

    Luz raised a brow. "That one's new t'me. It's a funny thing, though. Whatever ya ask for, they seem t'know how t'make somethin' that passes fer the same experience. I reckon that's somethin' t'do with the translation." She smacked her head. "Right, plain forgot. We can speak with the locals...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "Sure thing, Lee." Jesse obliged his friend with a particularly deft ear-scratching. He'd gotten pretty good at this over the years, if he did think so himself. He'd win this extremely weird but mercifully wholesome game easily, no doubt.

    Threadmarks: R8 – Luz drinks Kate under the table?

    Luz made her way inside Spinda Cafe with her usual, beaming, fanged smile. She'd only visited the cafe briefly one night before, but she'd liked what she'd seen. "Don't worry about costs," she told Kate, the sneasel newcomer to the posse, "everything's on God Squad's tab, so we can treat...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse smirked, and pulled the barely-mortal lycanroc into a hug from behind, settling them both into the couch. "Never mind the scorin' system," he drawled. "Why don'tcha tell me what ya like, partner?" Jesse moved his paws to Lee's shoulders and put them to work.

    Treasure Town ~ Residential District

    Luz clapped her hands together in satisfaction. "Brilliant! There're some lovely drinkin' houses in Destiny Village and here, and I'll say this fer Cibus: the caterin' in this world is outstandin'. Better'n anythin' from my memories of Brisa's world, anyhow. Let me give y'all a little tour..."...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Well, that was alright, then. Clothes on, at least. Delphox fur or not, he just didn't feel like a person without some coverings. Jesse approached Lee with his dry grin returning somewhat. "How about it, partner?" he drawled, offering a paw to walk Lee over to the couch.

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Jesse raised a brow. "And how's that work, then?" He glanced sidelong at Lee, wondering if the fluffy fella was due another meltdown at the new suggestion.
