I10DT - Birds of a Feather

"Close? How cl--nevermind. That's probably one of those details I don't really want to know at this point."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 1:06 pm

"Aye... let's... not pry. It'll happen when it happens."

by **Aria Nyx** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 1:11 pm

"Thank you." Aria said, breathing a little sigh of relief. "Anyway, yeah. Its very odd. Of course, the whole modern world can seem odd. Which is why I spend so much time out of it. Or maybe thats why it seems odd."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 1:15 pm

"When you say 'modern'..."

by **Aria Nyx** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 1:19 pm

"Post-electricity." Aria replied "Usually quite a bit earlier than that, but I've been spending a little bit of time in Mexico City recently."

"So close to your childhood is... a relative term."

by **Aria Nyx** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 3:33 pm

"It can be, yes." Aria replied "Right now, though, it is pretty close, even if you have a normal view of time. Which none of us do."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 3:51 pm

"Well, I suppose I'll have to change my opinion about time-travelers now."

by **Aria Nyx** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 3:54 pm

"Oh, no, feel free to think that we're bloody awful." Aria replied "Most of us are."

"You haven't kidnapped anyone dear to me yet, so you get the benefit of the doubt."

by **Aria Nyx** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 4:01 pm

Aria sighed theatrically "If you ever wonder why I don't take you with me, this is why." she said to Nailah.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 4:27 pm

"To be fair, there's... precedence."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 5:14 pm

"Though she's a bit of one herself, aye?"

by **Aria Nyx** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 7:35 pm

"A bit yes." Aria replied "But that would be telling."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 9:28 pm

"I think she picked up this cryptic business from you," she teased Nailah.

by **Aria Nyx** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 11:25 pm

"She gave me lessons." Aria agreed "There were quizzes and everything."

"Look if you're going to be walking around with knowledge of the future you have a certain image to uphold." she chuckles.

by **Aria Nyx** » Sat Jul 28, 2012 1:56 pm

"And I'm working with a disadvantage." Aria said "I'm not as naturally good at 'sphinx-like' as you are."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sat Jul 28, 2012 2:11 pm

"You have my eyes though. At... least I think you do..."

by **Aria Nyx** » Sat Jul 28, 2012 2:27 pm

"You always said so." Aria replied "And I got my nose from your mom's side." she smiled "The horns are all me, though."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sun Jul 29, 2012 4:24 am

Nailah smiles, feeling almost a little stupid for realizing how much that means to her.

"So is your power, it seems." she changes the topic a little.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sun Jul 29, 2012 4:45 am

"Mutation isn't always directly hereditary..."

by **Aria Nyx** » Sun Jul 29, 2012 10:47 am

"They aren't." Aria agreed "I can warp space, and with something to.....focus.....that a bit, I can travel in time as well. Its pretty neat."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Sun Jul 29, 2012 11:06 am

"Impressive is what that is." Nailah chuckles.

by **Aria Nyx** » Sun Jul 29, 2012 4:55 pm

Impressive is what I can do with it." Aria replied.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:04 am

"And if I understood you correctly now you're stranded here."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:29 am

"Aye. The focusing device was damaged?"

by **Aria Nyx** » Mon Jul 30, 2012 12:49 pm

"It was." Aria replied "Fixing the device wasn't a big deal, but the power cell was damaged, and getting ahold of cavorite is tricky."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 12:48 pm

"Hence your interest in Mister West..."

by **Aria Nyx** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 12:59 pm

"That and the fact that the device will be his design." Aria replied "But anyway, he's buggered off, which creates some difficulties for me."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 1:02 pm

"You're careful about everything else, but you'd show him that before its time?"

by **Aria Nyx** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 2:43 pm

"I didn't have much choice." Aria replied "Besides, it only works if you're me." she suddenly went pale "Shit, shit bugger fuck bollocks."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 2:45 pm

"Please tell me you didn't just realize you showed Mister West a highly advanced piece of technology."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 2:56 pm

"...I'd say she gets her mouth from me, but I'd like to think I didn't teach her that."

by **Aria Nyx** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 3:11 pm

"In my time, he was working on a device that would interface with the one I use, to create a sort of artificial version of my power." Aria replied "I didn't think he'd be able to put it together yet. Of course.......the version he was working on didn't seem to work all that well for time travel......but that would explain......bugger, bugger bugger."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 3:23 pm

"Please keep in mind we're behind in technology and I'm no good with physics..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 3:25 pm

"Believe her thoughts turned to the other Mister West, aye?"

by **Aria Nyx** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 3:35 pm

"The last time I was home, it looked like the device that he'd built wasn't only going to give him access to the same time period, in parallel universes." Aria replied "Which wouldn't be a big deal, since well....Dr. Tomorrow had done his mischief already. But if our Robert West got ahold of it.....and then....I may be responsible for decades of temporal instability. Sorry Moms."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 3:45 pm

"Our Robert West isn't even from this universe..." she scrunches up her face trying to make sense of this. "I hate time-travelers. No offense."

by **Aria Nyx** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 5:25 pm

"None taken." Aria replied "And that is what I mean....it makes a lot of sense that he'd want to make sure that he got out of that universe. Still, bugger. I hate temporal instability. This is why I try to stay away from my own timeline. Far, far away."
