Alex took a half stepped back with an expression a mixture of happiness, surprise, and embarrassment. Mostly embarrassment.

"Th-th-thank you."

Quickly aiming to move the topic elsewhere, he randomly throws out another query.

"S-so, what's your favorite song?"

Mafia / Re: Power Hungry Mafia - D1

Sorry, University Orientation was the past three days, so I haven't had the energy for the extensive analysis that mafia requires. I could barely even write creatively.

To start off with, Extend.

Secondly, Shakerag: If a player has their role changed and is killed the same night, do they show up the next day as their old role, or their new one?
I know it's likely in the order of operations, but I'd like to have the answer directly from you to be certain.

"Hm?"
She blinks.
"What was it? Is it still there?"
She turns to him, mild concern showing on her face.

He shakes his head "I'm not sure what it was" before looking into Relspi's eyes again.
They were extraordinarily beautiful, a brilliant hue of gorgeous viridian green, but did not have the same hypnotic effect he had experienced before... The thing he had glimpsed was no longer there. If it would ever return, he had no idea.

"I can't see it anymore, either... Your eyes are still beautiful without it, though." he added.

God, he was so ANGRY at himself for saying such a ridiculous thing, why was he even letting himself be swayed by that harlot anyway, she wasn't anything spec-
Alex shakes his head to clear the weird unbidden thoughts that had found their was into his head. There was nothing wrong with that.

274
His nerves were coming back again, so much for ordinary conversation. Though really, Alex didn't understand why he was acting so vulnerable. In the mundane world he was always calm and in control, as close to perfect as you could expect any person to be, but here... Here his defenses had been totally shattered in the first day, and he was left stuttering like a schoolgirl in love.

"Uh, the, uh, the thing that happened earlier... With us... Earlier... I, I thought I could see something in your eyes... It was... Beautiful."


275
Alex nods thoughtfully.

"I suppose I can see where you're coming from, though it's a bit weird that you're talking about humans like they're entirely separate from you. As far as I can see, you're entirely normal, not like the wolfthing or the birdman. Though I do suppose there was that one, um..."

He blushes, probably recalling what happened earlier.

((I thought about pudding something like "Octopi" or "Squid" there, but it wouldn't have made any sense as he doesn't know about Rel's Eldritchn Tentacles.))

276
"I like the lute."
She nods.
"Yes."

Smiling, Alex admitted that was quite an unexpected answer.

"I don't think I could have guessed that one. Right, what about favorite... Um, animal. I love foxes and cats."


277
"...umm... I like-"
The sound that proceeds to emanate from her mouth fills all who hear it with an immense sense of dread.
"- because it sounds sort of... pretty?"

Alex was totally oblivious, and didn't feel the dread, or hear anything more than a quiet mumble for that matter. He was about to ask Relspi to repeat herself more clearly, but... Suddenly decided that he wouldn't.

"If you think it's beautiful, I'm sure it is. What's for favorite instrument? Mine's probably all the members of the Violin family, sans the double bass. The mournful music is sublime."

278
"Is there anything you'd like to know about me, or am I going to have to ask all the questions?" he asked, with a cheerful grin.
"...uh... what about your favourite colour?"
She smiles.
"Mine is blue."

Sot's presence elicits a sigh of relief, and Relspi finds herself relaxing slightly. A few things seem to catch her eye (not even in Sot's general direction) but she either doesn't notice him or decides not to look.

"I think mine is... Viridian." Alex said, smiling cheerfully.

Thinking carefully, he decided on a more abstract question.

"What's your favorite word? I think mine is... Also viridian, actually."

His smile became a bit sheepish as he answered his own question.

279
"Ah, I see."
She nods, and doesn't elaborate further.

"Is there anything you'd like to know about me, or am I going to have to ask all the questions?" he asked, with a cheerful grin.

280
The worry left Alex's face.

"The way you laughed made me think it might have been sore, that's all."

And was replaced by a smile.

"If that's just how it naturally is, I'll remember. It's certainly quite distinct, after all."


281
"Yes, that's true, there's so much variety that it can be really hard to choose. It's like when people ask what your favorite song is, no easy way to narrow things down. Though, are you all right? Is your throat sore?"

Alex looked quite genuinely worried.

282
"I see..."

Alex was unsure what she meant, but had the feeling that probing further would only result in a harder to decipher response. Still, he smiled. For some reason he liked this girl, wanted to try and understand her more, even if she was a bit odd. Because...

"Alright then, what's your favorite food? For me, it's probably dark chocolate."

She was an outsider too.

Rather than playing I might be interested in Co-GMing. Do you still need/want one, Xvar? Or have I disqualified myself by asking in this thread rather than posting?

284
Well, I'm new to the magical world, so almost everything. The different types of creatures, different types of magic, mysterious unknown things that I have never experienced before. What do you mean that you don't know, though? Surely there's something you're interested in. What about this academy?"


285
"I think yours is perfectly interesting. Much more interesting than my own, because..."

he adds, with an embarrassed smile.

"I'm not even sure what yours does."

Alex wasn't sure it'd be very easy to figure out, either, with his utter lack of magical knowledge.

"Um... So, what sort of things are you interested in? What do you like to do?"
