In roaming the ship, out of an increased sense of irritation and impatience, Zetta had discovered someplace new to him ( Read more... )

"Looks like you made a pretty lady cry." Ruffnut stated the obvious appearing from seemingly nowhere right behind the Overlord and his minion.

"Why the hell is there a statue of it?" Zetta turned his infuriated demands right on Ruffnut, which probably went to show how flustered he was. After all, who was LESS likely to have answers than her?

"I unno." Ruffnut looked up at the Statue itself, "Funny, I always expected you to be bigger." A throw away remark.

Then, much to Ruffnut's dismay the statue shifted to show her and her brother riding their two headed dragon with big stupid grins on their faces. She had spent so much time being berated by the voice in her head that sounded like Tuffnut she forgot how much fun they had flying together.

While Ruffnut always got a sort of pleasure from pain, this was not the kind of pain that worked for her. "Oh..."

"Hey! I'm pretty damn tall! It's not to scale!"

Zetta probably would've gone off more, but to his surprise the statues abruptly shifted into a different one.

"Oh. THAT explains it. It's some freaking mind-reading scene-showing statue. Hey, it's that dragon of yours."

Starfire was lured by the sound of the obnoxious yelling that could only be from one book. Lord Zetta was bothered by something, and whether she wished to or not she would hear what it was.

Fortunately for him, she wished to.

She flitted around the statues, wondering what on earth it could represent.

"Who is this woman?"

i_am_the_bafo March 10 2011, 01:01:50 UTC

Star wasn't entirely right for once; Zetta responded with his usual blustering denial and invective. "Nothing! She's no one! She's dead to me!"

Very believable, that Overlord.

joyous_justice March 10 2011, 01:04:12 UTC

Starfire frowned, studying the unfamiliar woman's face and posture more closely. Something seemed off.

"Then why have you decided that the display is 'crap'? Is it merely an inaccuracy?"

i_am_the_bafo March 10 2011, 01:22:12 UTC

"How the hell would this damn statue know a damn thing about Salome?!" Zetta demanded. It isn't freaking fair! That's part of the past, damn it! It's over! Done! Finished!

Ronnae was passing by the art gallery when she overheard a familiar voice, in a familiar tone matter-o-fact.

"Zetta? Is that you?" She asked curiously as she walked into the room, moving between statues trying to avoid running into one and possibly break something.

i_am_the_bafo March 10 2011, 02:44:32 UTC

"No! It's the other talking book of the ship!" Zetta snapped back. He didn't need to look to know it was Ronnae. Her voice was familiar (and he could see her status screen).

ronnae March 10 2011, 02:47:55 UTC

"... Wow Zetta, what got under your cover?" She frowned, specially not having had the chance to meet up with her friend who didn't like the notion of friends. "You alright?" she asked as she strolled beside him, looking at the statues curiously.

i_am_the_bafo March 10 2011, 02:49:05 UTC

"Why the hell is there a statue of me and -- why the hell is there a statue of me in here?" Zetta sounded like he was about to rip an answer out of somebody right quick.

"Looks like someone's not too happy," someone behind him giggled. Lash was on her way from the engineering room to someplace-who-knows-where (all sources point to places she should not go), carrying a bunch of heavy equipment.

"You know them?"

Meatship: slightly more doomed! i_am_the_bafo March 10 2011, 14:28:23 UTC

"That's a statue of me! In all my real-body, handsome glory," he added in a rather smug tone. Yes, he is gorgeous and he knows it.

Right back to irritated in a moment, though, he continued, "Why the hell is there a statue of me in here, though!?"

Do you like your meatship rare or medium rare? things_go_boom March 10 2011, 15:22:31 UTC

"Errrr..." She looked between the book-like talking thing and the statue, unused to people bragging like that that weren't her. Maybe Kindle, but that was about it and all she had done was talk about how pretty she was. She looked at the book again. The statue. The book. The statue. The book was now diamonds!

"Did you make statues of yourself in your homeworld and they got carried over?" But why that, of all things. That was dumb.

If it's not crispy-burned, would they not consider their efforts to be failures? i_am_the_bafo March 10 2011, 15:45:22 UTC

"Sure, I had a ton of statues of myself, but not THIS one," Zetta said. "Why would I have THIS one --"

The statue interrupted him by shifting. Now it showed the Overlord on a throne, looking indolently regal and damn satisfied to be there. The book responded by grinning. "Now that's more like it. Damn, I guess this is some shifting-statue thing."
