h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

*seeing the note she walks up behind him and reads it over his shoulder. Her eyes widen and she seems to forget her "I cant help" game*

[Alyssa] Well, I can try and help with this- I have cleric training. As for the orcs talk to my brother, hes an illusionist he can help somehow- hes been trying to offer his help for a long time. Think trickery and hiding soldiers. They shouldnt see through it

*she gestures to Ezekiel who jumps up as Alyssa heads off to the guild*

[Ezekiel] *irritated* Will anyone tell me whats going on?

*Alanna shrugs*

Sorry, I'm probably more in the dark about this than you.
...wait, did she say 'brother'?!

<< sorry I actually know, but Ezekiel got shoved out the of way and is peeved >>

[Ezekiel] *glowering* Yes shes my sister, what of it?

Oh, nothing. I was a bit suprised, that's all. You two don't seem to get on so well, do you?

[Ezekiel] *slightly flustered by having to talk to her* There are .... differences of opinion *he paces in irritation* do /you/ never have family feuds?

*looks away into the distance*

No... but then I don't really have a family...

*looks back and blushes slightly*

I'm sorry, I can see you're uncomfortable talking about this. I meant nothing by it, I assure you.

*he turns away slightly and mutters* [Ezekiel] its not the subject of the conversation that is bothering me....


*he turns back and attempts to regain ground* << >>
[Ezekiel] You have no family?

*emotionlessly* My mother died giving birth to my brother, who died a week later anyway. My father fought bravely but lost honourably in a war when I was 6.

*blinks blankly wondering wether he choose the best subject to persue*
[Ezekiel] Oh...? Well, you must have amazing strength to bring yourself this far

*makes a noncommital 'hmmm' sound*



I think I went to get my horse at the wrong time - could you fill me in with the plan about the orcs please?

[Ezekiel] *obviously irritated about the whole thing* I think you are asking the wrong person, the plans I have heard keep changing and it appears I'm not worthy to offer ideas anyone wants to listen to

[Ecg Unagi]: ~Nice family Ezekiel. I swear,- If she calls me 'human', woman or not...~

*Then suddenly has a change of spirits when he notices who else is now there*

"Alanna!"
:

: He sorta said hi to you "in words"; the mind speak is with Ezek and his 'sister'. Orcs? No, that's his 'brother' arc, who is stuck as an animate suit of armor, due to a spell complication... , am I uber-otaku?

[Ecg Unagi]: "Ezekiel, I have a furthened respect for you. Having to put up with relatives like that..."

*turns towards Ecg with a smile*

Ecg, it's good to see you. I noticed you earlier creating golems but you looked quite busy.

*seems even more flustered at Ecg's interruption*
[Ezekiel] Oh... thankyou, yes she can be quite a handful

[Ecg]: (To Ezek) : "A handful... indeed,- that it is. Well, at lest you do not need to worry about lengthy arguments between a lunkhead and an "iron" lunkhea..."

*Laughs because he is referring to himself and his own brother*
~Did you notice how I spooked her horse? What's she so "high & mighty" attituded about, eh? You know, on second thoughts, can we pretend that I never brought it up?~

"Alanna, it is good to see you. Yes, I was busy... how are you?"
