The caravan leaves the oasis in the early morning on Monday; the guardsmen comb the oasis to make sure they're leaving no one behind ( Read more... )

Daxter sighed a little overdramatically, looking around at the endless stretch of desert around them. The caravan seemed to be getting nowhere. Thankfully he'd been accommodated by one of the worldwalkers and allowed to hitch a ride on his shoulder. Unsurpisingly it was the mute one too. Now that brought back memories.

That actually sounded more like ticking off the Krimzon Guard to Daxter and he couldn't bit back a chuckle. "Not where I'm from, but I dunno if that's a good thing or not," he answered. Giving into the fact he really didn't want to walk, he hopped onto Cris' shoulder. If the guy had a problem, he'd either tell him to get off or drop him on the ground.

Cris gave Daxter a sidelong look- though there was a hint of the sardonic in it. "Oh, I see how it is now. Just hopping on your new ride, aren't you?" He nodded toward the man Daxter had been perched on a moment before, who was now farther removed from the two of them. "And what was wrong with him, exactly?"

precursor_dax October 18 2009, 07:14:30 UTC

"Oh you know, a little too much deja vu," Daxter said, shifting to all fours for balance. "Hanging out with the mutes is fun and all but you have to put words in their mouth sometimes.." He gave Guy an appreciative smile though. "Besides, now we can talk face to face."

creaoi_ang_cor October 19 2009, 00:39:27 UTC

"True enough." Ah, to be small enough to ride on somebody else's shoulder. Or shoulders... Cris supposed he probably could do that, but he didn't know too many people well enough to even try it. "So is, uh... Is everyone your size where you come from?"

precursor_dax October 19 2009, 00:55:04 UTC

"Of course not," Daxter said. "I'm the only one who can pull off the Ottsel-look with style. I've already been told the fur's an improvement." Granted that hadn't been a compliment, but Cris didn't need to know that.

creaoi_ang_cor October 19 2009, 01:11:34 UTC

Cris raised his eyebrows, turning his head to look at Daxter. Studying him. "An improvement... Over what?"

precursor_dax October 19 2009, 01:18:00 UTC

"Being my normal handsome self," was the answer Daxter gave him. "Pretty much whatever you are but with longer ears."

creaoi_ang_cor October 19 2009, 01:32:38 UTC

"Ah. Like an elf." Cris wasn't sure if Daxter would know what that meant, but maybe he'd seen one of them before they went into that weird sleep. And of course, there was Devorah walking along behind them, and Mikney off to the side. "So how'd you get changed like this? There's no sort of magic that can do that, where I come from."

precursor_dax October 19 2009, 01:39:41 UTC

"No, longer than that. And it wasn't magic," Daxter said, before giving a slightly embelished rundown of how he fell into Dark Eco and came out an Ottsel.

creaoi_ang_cor October 19 2009, 01:43:47 UTC

Cris grimaced. "That sounds... uncomfortable. Yikes." He shook his head. "Never realized how good I had it until I came here, y'know?"

precursor_dax October 19 2009, 01:54:31 UTC

"That stuff stings like nothing else, that's for sure." Daxter could sympathize with that very easily. "Yeah, kinda wanna go back to the easy life too."

creaoi_ang_cor October 19 2009, 03:56:33 UTC

"Who wouldn't?" Cris almost shrugged, but then remembered that he had a- what had Daxter called himself?- on his shoulder, so he turned the shrug into a kind of gentle roll.

"Let's see... If I was back at home right now, it would be..." He had to think about it for a few seconds. "I'm fairly certain we'd be smack-dab in the middle of spring. I'd either be at my house, or... maybe out for a picnic with Lidia. Probably be headed to the Duke's tonight." At least in Jhelbor there's been the Stoat.

precursor_dax October 19 2009, 04:07:25 UTC

Daxter appreciated the caution, but told Cris it wasn't needed.

"Sounds nice," he said. "If I was back in Sandover I'd be at the beach or something."

creaoi_ang_cor October 19 2009, 04:25:56 UTC

"Very nice indeed." He looked up at the sky. It really was a rather pretty blue. "There's a few beaches nearby Glass Point, but they're only worth going to in the summer." Any other time was too cold.

"In any case, I can at least promise you that not all of Rowan is this hot and sandy."

precursor_dax October 19 2009, 04:32:11 UTC

We lived in a pretty tropical place until a couple years ago," Daxter said. "And the village was on the coast. So it was almost always beach time."

He grinned. "I'd hope not, I've already done the burnt Ottsel thing."
