Summary of Arithon's thread.

Enter Arithon, with drama.

Nick's Wonder Vampire Senses go "buzuh?!" and Anthy is very Anthy just in time for Arithon to go "Aiii, blond!" and attack him. Nick is eloquent in his screaming-in-pain. Arithon is insane. Nick, Tom, Will, and Svava attempt to be sane. Moiraine does her best, but, alas, glows.

Arithon drops Nick, and shields from Moiraine. Nick rushes where angels might think twice, resulting in wood in the arm to accompany his burns. Tom attempts to be soothing.

Moiraine goes woowoo-bananas over A) the shadows and B) the fact that he has a taint. Moiraine attacks. Will attempts to be sane, again. Arithon repels the attack, and sends a tidal-wave of shadow/darkness to swamp Moiraine. Will sheilds. Moiraine shields. Svava lands on her shapely posterior. Tom casts Stupefy, then goes flying, and cuts his forhead. Nick finishes his rush, and says please. Above paragraph is not quite in that order.

Bigby enters, and runs toward the fight. Snow enters, and doesn't.

Arithon is KO'ed.

Joe helps Svava up.

Esme heals Tom. Temporarily. Tonks heals Tom. Not temporarliy.

Meanwhile! Bigby demands answers, Nick is blind, and we find out that Svava is creeped by her own blood. Bigby hopes she knows what she's doing. She doesn't. Nick feeds, (yum! Norse demi-goddess blood!) Svava lies through her teeth, and Bigby removes wood from vampire. Eventually, Nick is deposited in a chair.

Meanwhile! Moiraine glares (and glows). Arithon is KO'ed (and pretty). Will is mildly confused (and very himself). Moiraine asks for information (from Will). Joe shows up (and trades mental not-quips with Will).

Will is confused. Moiraine is suspicious. Tom is confused, and smart (he thinks about curses). Tom also realizes Arithon is not just a child. Will doesn't know about curses like that. Tonks and Moiraine think about binding Arithon. Moiraine attempts to Heal him.

Arithon wakes up, assumes she's cursing him, and does his own going woowoo-bananas. Joe moves Moiraine. Tom attempts to cast a calming charm. Bigby asks what Moiraine did. Moiraine answers. Will directs Joe away. Joe is snotty to an Old One.

Arithon bitches about light, bitches about Moiraine, and bitches about Lysaer. Will attempts to be calming. Arithon isn't beliving it. Tonks still has her wand out, and is Threat Auror! Tom attempts to be soothing, and to explain Milliways.

Arithon attempts to get himself killed. Tonks gets her snark on. Nick gets his snark on. Arithon claims that Light=Good is "Your definition is warped, unbalanced, and insane." As well as explaining his attack on Nick via hair color.

Nick is not amused. Tonks is Not Amused. Svava is not amused. Arithon is good at trying to get himself killed. He manages to convey the fact that he thinks Tonks is a stupid whore, and accidently make Nick think that they might be brothers in one post. Yay!

Will is grumpy. (Well. For Will.) Tonks KO's Arithon. Bigby gets loud and decides to stuff Arithon in a cell. Moiraine is content with that. Moiraine offers to Heal Nick. Nick asks Svava if its safe. Moiraine is offended. This is not Moiraine's night.

Meanwhile! Tom is impressed by Tonks' wand-work (which sounds rather improbably sexual) and they agree to go have drinks.

Elsewhere and later: Joe has threadzilla. I amn't summarizing it. It contains: Vampire angst, pissy Aes Sedai, kitten cuteness, Emergancy Potato, talk of dragons, the difference between wizards and Old Ones, and hopes that it was all a misunderstanding.

Else-elsewhere, and Meanwhile: Tonks and Tom talk about Crowley.

Else-else-elsewhere, and Meanwhile: Bigby dumps Arithon off in a cell. Arithon ignores Tim, baits Tim, continues with both, is released from the ropes, walks around filling the cell with darkness, is rude, is rude about the fact that Tim says he's rude, ignores Tim's request to stop filling the cell with darkness, is uncommunicative, drugs himself (kiddies, if you have to knock a violent mage out, twice, search him before putting him in jail), falls over, manages to ask for water, and is briefly communicative.

Not spellchecked. Spellcheck is being a bitch.

Selected highlights: Moiraine goes woowoo-bananas! Nick feeds on Svava! Arithon implies that Tonks is a stupid whore!

Best. Summary. Ever.

Nick asks Svava if its safe
::can't get this out of my head now::
Nick: (hiding behind a counter) Is it safe?
Svava: Yeah, it's safe.
Nick: (still behind the counter) Is it safe?"
Svava: Of course it's safe.
Nick: (wait, wait...counter) Is it safe?
Svava: It's safe, okay?
Nick: (counter) Is it safe?
Svava: (runs screaming)
Nick: (to Bigby) Dude...you owe five bucks.

::DESPERATELY NEEDS MORE SLEEP::

*snickerfitz!*

::snickers that someone knows what the hell I'm referencing::

*applauds*

Sorry sorry sorry I didn't get in last night in time to participate! Oh well -- maybe Andrew can get poor Arithon out of that cell?

He'll recognize the name if Tim just happens to mention it...

Snow was unsure how to help, considering the crowd that had gathered. Then around midnight local time, Snow-mun gave up trying to follow things coherently and decided to get some sleep.

*mun sips from (non-metaphorical)grab-n-go cup that contains a blend of three different beverages provided at ye local corner store, which can likely be claimed as evil*

From corner store? Eeep! Likely has soy! Soy does not belong in drinks like that!

Um. It's two varieties of coffee and some hot chocolate. I don't think there's soy in it.

Well, if it came from the machine where you push the button and it takes a while to come out and then you let go and it keeps going for a second...

I think that there is, in fact, soy in that.

*glares at cup* Well, the coffee portions are safe; only the hot chocolate required the special button-holding procedure. Soy's deviousness has deemed it worthy of being a cup of evil.

*nods wisely*

Told you so.

Bleh. Is it wrong that I find the thought of soy in my drink less appealing than the concept of satanic coffee?

I don't see a problem with this thought.

After all, at this point it's established Milliways canon that Lucifer makes a mean cup of joe.

And usually, I think, he actually leaves Joe out of it...

>.>
<.<

Um?

But yes. Soy is evil. Soy keeps me from being able to sing, and I like singing.

Soy is indigestable by humans, fercryinoutloud. Why do they insist on sticking it in so many things? I'm going to stick to the purity of coffee from now on. Lucifer is more concerned with rotting your soul than your digestive tract, so I have no immediate complaint with the beverages he provides.

I wonder what would happen if Lucifer got a Rose...

Heh.

And I am apparently allergic to soy, even, so it tightens up my throat something awful and gives me the sniffles. :(

I take my coffee with *real* milk and a touch of sugar; I laugh at pesky creamers.

... and suddenly, reading this, I have a desperate craving for real coffee, including full caffeine.

Unfortunately, I have none in the house with me at present. *sigh*

*makes tea instead*

Awww...

*hugs you*

Well, if you join Raph and Granny in a thread that's probably three pages back at this point, you could have some there...

...

Do not tempt me!

*cries*

*comforts you*

>.>
<.<

*tempts tempts tempts*

I mean, really, just...

*tempts you liek wo*

~~Because it's pretty, and will doubtless be an excellent conversationist when it comes to admiring sunsets?~~

1. Lochiel needs to reply to Granny in the most recent rose thread.

2. If that's the case, then there's no harm in it... and who knows? Maybe, if Lucifer's Rose has a soul, then perhaps he won't require another one in order to help Lochiel out? Or something?

1. On the other hand, I say this, and I fully intend to drive off to the city down the road within the next half hour at most.

2. That's okay, because the roses will Revive Him! For He Is Their Father.

1. Well, that's all on you, although I must say that I'm not terribly fond of most breakfast foods, so I shan't join you.

2. Well, if it's only indirectly... besides, maybe the curse will be part of the cure? XD

3. *hugs* Aww, you poor thing. *pets*

1. This is not to say that breakfast is bad, but I have Arguments with eggs.

2. Yay!

My inbox: *weeps*

*removes this from your inbox, no really*

Madb thinks Snow did the smartest thing she could, by not adding an additional target to the mess.

You're not just saying that because it ment fewer comment notifications to clear out of your inbox, are you?

No, actually. I think that was a truely brilliant thing to do.

She's not a fighter, she's not a mage, she's a diplomat and a mother. Getting involved in the most recent beings-with-godlike-powers-bar-brawl would be stupid for her.

Also lacking healing abilities, the only thing she could really do was stand back and watch Bigby deal with the situation. Of course, I was a tad tempted to bring in another character to deal with things better(like I did the time Broom poked Faust) but I don't really have any powerful characters . . . Ah, well.

What? Snow's a powerful character. I quote:

"I'm Snow White and I'm never outgunned!"

Well, yes, but more in the sense of being highly capable when it comes to ordering others to fight on her side; as I recall, that line prompted a dragon and three giants to join her as backup.

Organizing... ideas... all that. And since the stage was set, she stood back and let things play out. Made sense to me. I can understand why everybody wanted to jump in, though... the excitement of not sitting on the sidelines. Made it chaotic. :)

Oh yes, footnote to Arithon-mun: There's a reason why Bigby would've left him tied up... he didn't have the time to frisk him. Probably would have turned up whatever he drugged himself with. What was it, by the way?

Tienelle.
Called "Seer's Weed".
A narcotic used by mages to expand their powers of foresight, inducing visions, and followed by severe illness from toxins that 'have no listed antidote'.

Svava lands on her shapely posterior.

... I am now cleaning cranberry juice off my computer screen.

... At least I didn't snorfle it out my nose this time.
