Subject: Ready when you are...
In reply to: Tristan and Laurel 's message, "Readying for departure" on 23:05:10 01/06/02 Sun

Barry grumbled as Corum blabbered some crap about Marz. "Yeah, yeah, whatever, Chief. Just keep that pikin' berk from thinkin' it's copascetic to be tossin' me around and everything will be just peachy."

Fleshies were always so wrapped up in their fleshy concerns they didn't bother to consider that maybe it was pretty damn inconvenient to be bodiless and downright rude to be taking advantage of that fact. He couldn't even count the number of times some brat had thought it was funny to fling him at his buddy shouting, "Go long!" And this wasn't the first time some git had hurled him like a weapon. "Everyone should be a skull for a week," he muttered, floating off to see what was going on with that big pile of swords.

"Hey... you guys're gonna carry all those how?" he said to Tristan. When the dragon dude glared at him he backed off. "Hey I was just askin'! Sheeee... touchy."

He floated over to Isobel, who was sitting on a rock looking glumly at her bandaged leg. "How's it shakin', toots?" He clacked his teeth at her.

*~*~*~*~*


Isobel chuckled in spite of herself as the strange skull spoke to her. "It is not shaking at all at the moment, Seņor Skull." She signed. "It was foolish of me to be so slow. And now look what I have done... I am injured by such a stupid foe!" She looked disgusted with herself.

"Well, baby, you still look good enough to me. How's about knockin' foreheads with ol' Barry?" The skull leered.

"Ay... foolish skull. I will knock your forehead over to that rock if you do not hold your tongue. Or... whatever you use to speak." She said with a grin.

"Temper, temper!" Barry cackled, and floated off toward Corum again.

Isobel signed and slid off the rock, testing her leg. It hurt like hades but she did not intend to let anyone know that. As long as it did not break open and bleed she would be fine.

She looked around for Alakbar. Where had the prince gone? She had seen how well he fought and she thought they would have to be even more careful than she had originally figured. The fellow might have other talents they did not know about, hidden away until he decided to use them.

She approached Erlic, limping only slightly. "Are we ready to depart, Frio? And why do Tristan and Marz have all those weapons? They cannot expect to carry them all with us!"
