(ooc: forward dated to tomorrow, 2PM)Hello everyone! I hope you've all had a wonderful week. I certainly hope you appreciated the Venerarian Willow Tree. It was quite a task Shifting it into the Enclosure for all of you! It's the very same one I planted when I first arrived in this world, some time ago. I had some concerns some of you might try to

...My turn, again. Fab. [ could use a bit of a work out. though...those shifters sound less than thrilling. ]

[malnosso]

Indeed! We are all quite relieved to know you'll be going.

[slaying]

Not to sound ungrateful but I would've been better sent out last ti--no, wait. I totally do want to sound ungrateful.

[malnosso]

Ah, you wish to have a rematch with their general, yes?

[slaying]

He killed a close, personal friend. Feels rematch-worthy.

[malnosso]

Indeed, indeed. That was most unfortunate. But he's grown much more powerful.

[slaying]

[ ...most unfortunate. hah. her laughter is like a dry bark. but too impatient at the moment to filter this conversation, she doesn't bother to press the point to any suspicious length. ]

These Shifters, though...you mean they can do what your labs did to me for a few months? Total de-powering? [ she can fight without the strength but...but it is, of course, no where near as effective. she would need to quickly bone up on some other strategies. ]

[malnosso]

Indeed, but only for as long as they're within a hundred meters. Outside of that and they have no effect.

[slaying]

...Can these guys be identified at a distance? Uniforms? Antlers? Platform shoes?

[malnosso]

That would be simpler, hm? But their eyes do glow while projecting Shifts.

[slaying]

Glowing eyes. Right. Flying fatalities for all bogeys in shades.

[Buffy may or may not be aware from the intake of breath that someone is lurking in on this transmission.]

[slaying]

[ her ears pick up something but...damn it. she should have filtered. ]

Is someone there? [ she doesn't expect an answer. ]

[lists_to_port]

"De-slayered?"

[Well, she should have.]

[slaying]

[ the moment she recognizes his voice is the moment where her breath catches in her throat. damn it times a million. ]

Last I checked? Being able to bend metal things with your bare hands totally counted as a special ability. Ergo, cancellation-friendly. Or...not-friendly, as the case may be.

[ but there are other parts, too. the speed. the agility. the endurance. the healing. ]

[lists_to_port]

I won't be there...
