Location: Huola, Planet SevenSetting: A palatial manor house situated at the top of a cliff, with spectacular views across the ocean. At the foot of the coastal path, a beautiful bay with white sandy beach allows Manor regulars, and their guests, a private and serene location to take a dip in the warm water.The house, surrounded by acres of lush gardens and tropical palm-trees, boasts a terrace bar lit by torches; flickering with naked flame. ((image here))From the landing pad, visitors are escorted to the terrace after having their weapons confiscated by the privately employed security detail. The terrace is scattered with tables and chairs, chaise lounges, rockers, and several outdoor sofas. Drinks and food are served upon request by a dedicated team of smartly dressed servers. The terrace is also fitted with several holodrones and a retractable roof that is used during the rainy season. A three tiered water fountain sits directly in the centre of the terrace - the base having been decorated with floating flowers, and is home to several species of Koi.Visitors are allowed to stroll the gardens and visit the nearby waterfall, the menagerie, and the public rooms of the Manor house. Overnight accommodation is also available in the Guest House, which is located opposite the house, near the menagerie.
[ 2015.06.04 01:29:51 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote walks onto the Terrace, having finished his drawing lessons with Rebecca for the day. He finds an empty table and orders a tea service.
[ 2015.06.04 01:29:56 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote enters. She is wearing her flight jacket and khakis. Her hair is pulled back into a ponytail. She is carrying a small envelope.
[ 2015.06.04 01:30:50 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote smiles as Luna enters. He stands politely and bows in her direction, "Lady Aspenstar! Would you care for some tea?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:31:14 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote her eyes flicker over the terrace and show no emotion as she sees Reginald, but she composes a quick smile as he sees her. "Hello Sir, I would like that."
[ 2015.06.04 01:31:40 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote pulls a seat out for Luna, smiling happily, "I trust that you are well, Lady Aspenstar?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:32:39 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says lightly "Well I just hauled one billion isk of materials to help the war effort in arzad. " She smiles faintly "doing one's duty is its own reward". She slides into the offered chair.
[ 2015.06.04 01:33:06 ] Thal Vadam > /emote steps up to the terrace,dressed in mostly armor, minus his helmet. He looks worn, and has a few scars on his face
[ 2015.06.04 01:33:15 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "It sounds your die fared much better than my own." He takes a seat and tends to Luna's cup of tea, "We lost thirty billion in ships today."
[ 2015.06.04 01:33:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Out in null" She tilts her head s;ightly.
[ 2015.06.04 01:34:00 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote sighs, "... Unfortunately, in that thirty billion was the Navy Apocalypse I had named after Katerina." He shakes his head, "Oh no, in Akidagi, over in the other warzone."
[ 2015.06.04 01:34:19 ] Vlad Cetes > /emote makes his way in, dressed in a black cloak and black leather gloves, he takes a seat at the bar and puts his hat on the rack
[ 2015.06.04 01:34:47 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Oh." she says softly. "How is Katerina... Lady Sakakobara by the way?
[ 2015.06.04 01:35:17 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote frowns, "I've not seen her recently." He looks up at her, "Milk, sugar?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:35:37 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Both. thank you."
[ 2015.06.04 01:35:45 ] Thal Vadam > /emote steps up to the bar and orders a tea
[ 2015.06.04 01:36:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote frowns slightly "But how is the baby progressing? I did want to talk to you about something by the way..."
[ 2015.06.04 01:37:20 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote places a spoonful of sugar and a dollop of milk into Luna's cup, then presents it to her along with a few lemon squares. "Well, she hasn't given me any reason to worry about our son." He quirks a brow, "How may I be of service?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:37:46 ] Vlad Cetes > /emote orders a drink and settles back on his stool
[ 2015.06.04 01:37:52 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I would like to hold a baby shower for her. I simply need the assistance of the husband in making sure she is delivered to the right place" *she twinkles as she says that*
[ 2015.06.04 01:38:10 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sips his tea and nods at Luna
[ 2015.06.04 01:38:19 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote chuckles, "You mean to host a surprise for her?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:38:27 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote flashes a bright smile at Thal and returns her gaze to Regi. She nods.
[ 2015.06.04 01:39:05 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "Excellent!" He raises his own cup to his lips, "I would be more than happy to assist with that. What venues were you considering?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:39:20 ] Thal Vadam > /emote turns to gaze out at the ocean
[ 2015.06.04 01:39:26 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "There is a lovely place on the edge of the warzone in high sec, Care Marlinea. its in Mehatoor only a few jumps from Myyhere.
[ 2015.06.04 01:39:31 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > *cafe
[ 2015.06.04 01:39:59 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, "Ah yes! We visited it a couple times. Delightful establishment."
[ 2015.06.04 01:40:16 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote wrinkles her nose "They had to move it from Tzvi, but it is essentially the same place"
[ 2015.06.04 01:40:44 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote frowns, "Oh, yes, that didn't process. We haven't visited since it moved. Why did it have to be relocated?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:40:57 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "the TLF took Tzvi."
[ 2015.06.04 01:41:27 ] Vlad Cetes > Very well
[ 2015.06.04 01:41:28 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says flatly "right now the 24th Imperial Crusade is hard pressed. They lost a lot of good pilots when people assumed the war was won."
[ 2015.06.04 01:41:41 ] Vlad Cetes > /emote makes notes on where to move items for profit
[ 2015.06.04 01:42:11 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote becomes quiet, "I see. I could only imagine the difficulties associated with a dearth of pilots. But surely the Minmatar can't have reformed their militia? It was absolutely shattered last I heard."
[ 2015.06.04 01:42:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "It is disorganized but an unruly mob that outnumbers the Crusade"
[ 2015.06.04 01:43:03 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote lays an envelop on the table. She looks thoughtfully at Regi.
[ 2015.06.04 01:43:18 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Tell me again, why you left?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:43:23 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote tilts her head slightly.
[ 2015.06.04 01:43:42 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote sighs, "I doubt the leaders of the militia would allow me back. Most think I'm a traitor."
[ 2015.06.04 01:44:23 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote shrugs. "So start your own corporation. YOu did it once, I am sure you can do it again:
[ 2015.06.04 01:44:42 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote looks quietly at Regi.
[ 2015.06.04 01:44:49 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "But I left because a Sani infiltration led to a slave sacrifice in Huola. It's why I disbanded my corporation and began waging war against Sani elements in the Crusade. By my lonesome."
[ 2015.06.04 01:45:16 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Yes.. and if I recall slightly.. you started this path after being told of it or provoked by a Sani named Mithra Arzad."
[ 2015.06.04 01:46:01 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, shifting uncomfortably, wishing to forget the night, "Yes, once it had surfaced that elements within my corporation were responsible for the sacrificial freighter."
[ 2015.06.04 01:46:08 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says quietly "Did it ever occur to you that maybe that's what she wanted you to do?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:46:25 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote slides the envelope to Regi. it is still sealed.
[ 2015.06.04 01:47:10 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks out over the ocean and sighs
[ 2015.06.04 01:47:18 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote quirks a brow at Luna, then takes the envelope, running his fingers against the seal, "No, I haven't considered it." He points at the envelope, "What is this, if I may?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:47:41 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says softly "read it"
[ 2015.06.04 01:48:36 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "More specifically the notes. That woman had hacked our systems. But the notes she made is what concerns me."
[ 2015.06.04 01:49:13 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, opening the envelope, unsure what to expect.
[ 2015.06.04 01:49:36 ] Vlad Cetes > /emote perks slightly at the mention of hacking
[ 2015.06.04 01:50:18 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote explains while she waits "After she showed up the Trillion Aqua, we did a complete sweep of our systems. It turns out she had tapped our communications. Thats how we obtained that through a reverse hack"
[ 2015.06.04 01:51:03 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote looks up at Luna, "What... is Project Insight?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:51:56 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "We don't know. But she seems to be trying to manipulate you, whether conciously or unconsciously."
[ 2015.06.04 01:52:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote glances at Vlad and frowns slightly and learns over to whisper to Regi.
***WHISPHERS***
[ 2015.06.04 01:52:55 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Think it about Sir.. the only other person with an MO of trying to smartbomb people in pods was Anyanka Funk."
[ 2015.06.04 01:53:28 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "And after your buttons.. were pushed in every single way possible by her, you quit the crusade and began a smart bombing campaign"
[ 2015.06.04 01:53:50 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says softly. "I am not sure if you are aren;t too close to see what i am seeing..."
**END WHISPHER**
[ 2015.06.04 01:54:42 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote gazes fixedly at Regi.
[ 2015.06.04 01:55:04 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote notices Vlad as well and leans in to respond to Luna.
**WHISPHER
[ 2015.06.04 01:54:45 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote swallows, "I didn't know that was the case..." He mouths the word 'sleeper agent,' then looks up at Luna, "You can't think this means me?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:55:23 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I am concerned. I think you need to be evaluated by a specialist."
[ 2015.06.04 01:55:43 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I.. have no doubt you have always tried to act with Honor Sir.. but I fear you've been manipulated'
[ 2015.06.04 01:58:09 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "You must know that this is much to take in," He swallows, "But... it seems too serious to simply ignore." He glances at the letter again, whispering with pleading eyes, "You must know that I don't want this in my marriage."
[ 2015.06.04 01:58:35 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I don't want to have to tell Katerina but you must promise to see someone."
[ 2015.06.04 01:58:45 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I must know you are being taken care of, Sir..."
[ 2015.06.04 01:59:20 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods nervously, "You'll send me references?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:59:38 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Yes."
[ 2015.06.04 01:59:52 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, leaning back.
**END WHISPERS**
2015.06.04 01:56:08 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote swallows hard. He reaches for his cup of tea and takes a sip, though his hand is shaking, "I see."
[ 2015.06.04 01:56:20 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote straightens back up and sighs.
[ 2015.06.04 01:57:04 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote leans back in towards Luna.
[ 2015.06.04 01:58:09 ] Vlad Cetes > /emote orders another drink and connects to his security systems
[ 2015.06.04 02:00:05 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote sips her tea and sighs.
[ 2015.06.04 02:00:09 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Keep the envelope"
[ 2015.06.04 02:00:17 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Do with it as you will."
[ 2015.06.04 02:00:33 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote straightens, saying with a smile, "An excellent proposition, Lady Aspenstar. I will be certain to review this particular letterhead for the invitations at your suggestion."
[ 2015.06.04 02:01:21 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote takes another sip of tea, "When should I expect to next see you to plan the event?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:02:24 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I'd like to discuss this with some mutual friends, Lady Lianne, the Bishop and some other women, to see when the best time is to do it"
[ 2015.06.04 02:03:06 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, "It sounds like a lovely idea. I'm sure Katerina will be thrilled."
[ 2015.06.04 02:03:28 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote glances at Reginald "I hope so. If Little Red were here, I am sure she'd see right into your head and know that is so." She adds dryly.
[ 2015.06.04 02:04:14 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "The last two baby showers we had were wonderful! Mrs. Pyrce and the Admiral Newelle were both happy with them,."
[ 2015.06.04 02:04:32 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote takes another sip of tea, then jots down information onto a piece of paper. He slides it back to Luna, "My contact information and Household Affairs Department. Let them know what they need to do and they shall."
**SECRET***
[ 2015.06.04 02:04:57 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote slides the piece of paper to Luna. On it is written, "Where do I go to get evaluated? When? And who do I see?"
**END SECRET**
[ 2015.06.04 02:05:37 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote takes the paper and slips in into her breast pocket. She nods.
[ 2015.06.04 02:07:34 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote freshens Luna's cup of tea, though his eyes are clearly elsewhere. His motions are automatic, of the type ingrained in him as a child growing up, preparing to be a Holder, a noble.
[ 2015.06.04 02:08:51 ] Thal Vadam > /emote finishes his tea and steps up to the ledge above the sea
[ 2015.06.04 02:09:08 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote murmers her thanks as she takes the cape again. She says lightly "Do you mind if I invite Templar Vadam over? I've not seen him in some time"
[ 2015.06.04 02:09:13 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > *tea
[ 2015.06.04 02:10:14 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote shakes his head, "Not at all, by all means." He glances towards Thal.
[ 2015.06.04 02:12:48 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says lightly, trying to catch Thal's attention "Hello, would you like to join us?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:14:43 ] Thal Vadam > /emote turns to Luna, and approaches Luna. He is roughly 7 feet tall in his armor. He bows "Lady Daphti...My Lord"
[ 2015.06.04 02:16:22 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods politely, "Templar, please." He motions to an open seat. He pours Thal a cup of tea, "Milk, sugar?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:17:17 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles warmly "what brings you here Templar?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:17:43 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks at the chair a moment, then sits "Just sugar...my Lord"
[ 2015.06.04 02:18:14 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks at Luna "...I like the view"
[ 2015.06.04 02:18:31 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "So do I." She sips her tea.
[ 2015.06.04 02:20:03 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote adds in the requisite sugar and provides Thal with the cup and a small assortment of miniature cakes.
[ 2015.06.04 02:20:47 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sets his left leg over his right "I also thought I'd visit Huola under positive circumstances for once"
[ 2015.06.04 02:21:08 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote takes another sip, "Positive circumstances?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:21:25 ] Thal Vadam > /emote takes the cup and bows his head in thanks to Regi
[ 2015.06.04 02:23:01 ] Thal Vadam > "The first time I was here sir, was in battle. The second, was in battle. The third, was in hell. The fourth, I buried a close friend."
[ 2015.06.04 02:23:59 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "How terrible," He frowns, "I've never been in a ground battle, but I was up there." He points towards the sky, "A flood of Minmatar and Gallente proxies overwhelming the Golden Fleet day after day, hour after hour."
[ 2015.06.04 02:24:46 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote turns to his neocom, "Though, please excuse me." He stands, bowing to Luna then to Thal, "My niece would like me to read her a bedtime story." He smiles, then departs for the manor.
[ 2015.06.04 02:25:43 ] Thal Vadam > /emote points across the ocean "I was out there. Fighting my way through swarms of Matari, watching artillery strikes turn green fields to wastelands"
[ 2015.06.04 02:26:00 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods at Regi
[ 2015.06.04 02:26:04 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says "good night Sir" as Reginald gets up and leaves." She turns her attention at Thal.
[ 2015.06.04 02:26:15 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "You were fighting here last year?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:26:50 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods at Luna "Yes my Lady, I was"
[ 2015.06.04 02:27:33 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "That must have been pretty awful. This was a populated world."
[ 2015.06.04 02:28:41 ] Thal Vadam > "Every battle us awful Luna...but this was probably the 2nd worst I've seen"
[ 2015.06.04 02:29:32 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Thank goodness the fighting never came close to here" She glances over the idyllic grounds.
[ 2015.06.04 02:30:19 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods slowly "Indeed...for every storm, there is a port"
[ 2015.06.04 02:32:39 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sighs "How are you Luna?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:32:51 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Fine." She gazes at Thal "Do you want to talk about it?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:32:55 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "What happened?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:33:28 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks at her a moment "...What do you mean?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:35:23 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "the fighting. it must have effected you for you to come... and look"
[ 2015.06.04 02:37:33 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods slowly "Indeed...Sometimes I can her the screams...then I remember the battles i've been through this month and wonder which screams are worse"
[ 2015.06.04 02:39:04 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says softly "Do you have nightmars"
[ 2015.06.04 02:40:28 ] Thal Vadam > "Every night...sometimes It seems like I experience a thousand hells whenever I close my eyes"
[ 2015.06.04 02:43:20 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "You did what you had to do"
[ 2015.06.04 02:44:36 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods slowly "Yes...I did...I give myself a horrible burden...which funny enough keeps me going"
[ 2015.06.04 02:45:18 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "What do you mean?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:47:34 ] Thal Vadam > "I tell myself 'If I don't fight for what's right, then who will?' I do what I do so one day mothers will one day no longer wave their children goodbye as they march off to war. I fight so others
[ 2015.06.04 02:47:44 ] Thal Vadam > don't have to"
[ 2015.06.04 02:51:55 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "You are needed. God has given you the vocation of being a protector"
[ 2015.06.04 02:52:58 ] Thal Vadam > /emote smiles slightly "...That's a word for it. But yes, yes he has"
[ 2015.06.04 02:53:44 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "As a Mother and grandmother I cherish people like you. Maybe one day it will be peaceful."
[ 2015.06.04 02:54:53 ] Thal Vadam > /emote smiles "Thank you Luna...I have felt cherished a lot recently...it is a good feeling"
[ 2015.06.04 02:56:09 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /slash: /emot enods.
[ 2015.06.04 02:56:16 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Your sister, how is she?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:56:29 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Does she still cherish you I hope?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:57:54 ] Thal Vadam > /emote frowns slightly "Yes...she does. She's in a medical facility at the moment...Since Sunday"
[ 2015.06.04 02:59:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Why?" She looks concerned.
[ 2015.06.04 03:00:09 ] Thal Vadam > "Awen visited..."
[ 2015.06.04 03:04:06 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "What did he do to her?"
[ 2015.06.04 03:06:02 ] Thal Vadam > "Her arm was hit by a laser"
[ 2015.06.04 03:06:18 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Will she be okay?"
[ 2015.06.04 03:06:37 ] Thal Vadam > "Yes"
[ 2015.06.04 03:07:55 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote exhals "That beast needs to be stopped"
[ 2015.06.04 03:09:14 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sighs "Indeed...He's kidnapping people...brainwashing them"
[ 2015.06.04 03:09:25 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "How awful."
[ 2015.06.04 03:09:33 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "i thought you two were like brothers"
[ 2015.06.04 03:09:55 ] Thal Vadam > "We were..."
[ 2015.06.04 03:12:03 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "How awful."
[ 2015.06.04 03:12:32 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "He still blamed you for what happened on that world didn't he?>"
[ 2015.06.04 03:14:54 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks at Luna "Which world?"
[ 2015.06.04 03:19:34 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "You or that awful creature killed him right?"
[ 2015.06.04 03:21:13 ] Thal Vadam > "Yes...he does"
[ 2015.06.04 03:32:21 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I wil pray for your sister. Maybe you should go the cathedral here if you need solace"
[ 2015.06.04 03:32:23 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sighs and sips his tea
[ 2015.06.04 03:33:28 ] Thal Vadam > "I have recently prayed at the temple in Myyhera...I'll need to speak with you privately soon"
[ 2015.06.04 03:33:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. She does not pry.
[ 2015.06.04 03:34:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Whenever you need too" she says softly.
[ 2015.06.04 03:34:48 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote yawns "I need to retire. Have a Blessed Night Sir"
[ 2015.06.04 03:34:54 ] Thal Vadam > "Let's just say...my love life is as complex as ever"
[ 2015.06.04 03:35:17 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "Good evening Luna"
[ 2015.06.04 03:38:44 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote gives thal a quizzical look as she gets up. She departs to the guest quarters.
[ 2015.06.04 01:29:51 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote walks onto the Terrace, having finished his drawing lessons with Rebecca for the day. He finds an empty table and orders a tea service.
[ 2015.06.04 01:29:56 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote enters. She is wearing her flight jacket and khakis. Her hair is pulled back into a ponytail. She is carrying a small envelope.
[ 2015.06.04 01:30:50 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote smiles as Luna enters. He stands politely and bows in her direction, "Lady Aspenstar! Would you care for some tea?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:31:14 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote her eyes flicker over the terrace and show no emotion as she sees Reginald, but she composes a quick smile as he sees her. "Hello Sir, I would like that."
[ 2015.06.04 01:31:40 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote pulls a seat out for Luna, smiling happily, "I trust that you are well, Lady Aspenstar?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:32:39 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says lightly "Well I just hauled one billion isk of materials to help the war effort in arzad. " She smiles faintly "doing one's duty is its own reward". She slides into the offered chair.
[ 2015.06.04 01:33:06 ] Thal Vadam > /emote steps up to the terrace,dressed in mostly armor, minus his helmet. He looks worn, and has a few scars on his face
[ 2015.06.04 01:33:15 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "It sounds your die fared much better than my own." He takes a seat and tends to Luna's cup of tea, "We lost thirty billion in ships today."
[ 2015.06.04 01:33:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Out in null" She tilts her head s;ightly.
[ 2015.06.04 01:34:00 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote sighs, "... Unfortunately, in that thirty billion was the Navy Apocalypse I had named after Katerina." He shakes his head, "Oh no, in Akidagi, over in the other warzone."
[ 2015.06.04 01:34:19 ] Vlad Cetes > /emote makes his way in, dressed in a black cloak and black leather gloves, he takes a seat at the bar and puts his hat on the rack
[ 2015.06.04 01:34:47 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Oh." she says softly. "How is Katerina... Lady Sakakobara by the way?
[ 2015.06.04 01:35:17 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote frowns, "I've not seen her recently." He looks up at her, "Milk, sugar?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:35:37 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Both. thank you."
[ 2015.06.04 01:35:45 ] Thal Vadam > /emote steps up to the bar and orders a tea
[ 2015.06.04 01:36:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote frowns slightly "But how is the baby progressing? I did want to talk to you about something by the way..."
[ 2015.06.04 01:37:20 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote places a spoonful of sugar and a dollop of milk into Luna's cup, then presents it to her along with a few lemon squares. "Well, she hasn't given me any reason to worry about our son." He quirks a brow, "How may I be of service?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:37:46 ] Vlad Cetes > /emote orders a drink and settles back on his stool
[ 2015.06.04 01:37:52 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I would like to hold a baby shower for her. I simply need the assistance of the husband in making sure she is delivered to the right place" *she twinkles as she says that*
[ 2015.06.04 01:38:10 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sips his tea and nods at Luna
[ 2015.06.04 01:38:19 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote chuckles, "You mean to host a surprise for her?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:38:27 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote flashes a bright smile at Thal and returns her gaze to Regi. She nods.
[ 2015.06.04 01:39:05 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "Excellent!" He raises his own cup to his lips, "I would be more than happy to assist with that. What venues were you considering?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:39:20 ] Thal Vadam > /emote turns to gaze out at the ocean
[ 2015.06.04 01:39:26 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "There is a lovely place on the edge of the warzone in high sec, Care Marlinea. its in Mehatoor only a few jumps from Myyhere.
[ 2015.06.04 01:39:31 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > *cafe
[ 2015.06.04 01:39:59 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, "Ah yes! We visited it a couple times. Delightful establishment."
[ 2015.06.04 01:40:16 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote wrinkles her nose "They had to move it from Tzvi, but it is essentially the same place"
[ 2015.06.04 01:40:44 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote frowns, "Oh, yes, that didn't process. We haven't visited since it moved. Why did it have to be relocated?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:40:57 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "the TLF took Tzvi."
[ 2015.06.04 01:41:27 ] Vlad Cetes > Very well
[ 2015.06.04 01:41:28 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says flatly "right now the 24th Imperial Crusade is hard pressed. They lost a lot of good pilots when people assumed the war was won."
[ 2015.06.04 01:41:41 ] Vlad Cetes > /emote makes notes on where to move items for profit
[ 2015.06.04 01:42:11 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote becomes quiet, "I see. I could only imagine the difficulties associated with a dearth of pilots. But surely the Minmatar can't have reformed their militia? It was absolutely shattered last I heard."
[ 2015.06.04 01:42:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "It is disorganized but an unruly mob that outnumbers the Crusade"
[ 2015.06.04 01:43:03 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote lays an envelop on the table. She looks thoughtfully at Regi.
[ 2015.06.04 01:43:18 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Tell me again, why you left?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:43:23 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote tilts her head slightly.
[ 2015.06.04 01:43:42 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote sighs, "I doubt the leaders of the militia would allow me back. Most think I'm a traitor."
[ 2015.06.04 01:44:23 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote shrugs. "So start your own corporation. YOu did it once, I am sure you can do it again:
[ 2015.06.04 01:44:42 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote looks quietly at Regi.
[ 2015.06.04 01:44:49 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "But I left because a Sani infiltration led to a slave sacrifice in Huola. It's why I disbanded my corporation and began waging war against Sani elements in the Crusade. By my lonesome."
[ 2015.06.04 01:45:16 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Yes.. and if I recall slightly.. you started this path after being told of it or provoked by a Sani named Mithra Arzad."
[ 2015.06.04 01:46:01 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, shifting uncomfortably, wishing to forget the night, "Yes, once it had surfaced that elements within my corporation were responsible for the sacrificial freighter."
[ 2015.06.04 01:46:08 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says quietly "Did it ever occur to you that maybe that's what she wanted you to do?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:46:25 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote slides the envelope to Regi. it is still sealed.
[ 2015.06.04 01:47:10 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks out over the ocean and sighs
[ 2015.06.04 01:47:18 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote quirks a brow at Luna, then takes the envelope, running his fingers against the seal, "No, I haven't considered it." He points at the envelope, "What is this, if I may?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:47:41 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says softly "read it"
[ 2015.06.04 01:48:36 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "More specifically the notes. That woman had hacked our systems. But the notes she made is what concerns me."
[ 2015.06.04 01:49:13 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, opening the envelope, unsure what to expect.
[ 2015.06.04 01:49:36 ] Vlad Cetes > /emote perks slightly at the mention of hacking
[ 2015.06.04 01:50:18 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote explains while she waits "After she showed up the Trillion Aqua, we did a complete sweep of our systems. It turns out she had tapped our communications. Thats how we obtained that through a reverse hack"
[ 2015.06.04 01:51:03 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote looks up at Luna, "What... is Project Insight?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:51:56 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "We don't know. But she seems to be trying to manipulate you, whether conciously or unconsciously."
[ 2015.06.04 01:52:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote glances at Vlad and frowns slightly and learns over to whisper to Regi.
***WHISPHERS***
[ 2015.06.04 01:52:55 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Think it about Sir.. the only other person with an MO of trying to smartbomb people in pods was Anyanka Funk."
[ 2015.06.04 01:53:28 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "And after your buttons.. were pushed in every single way possible by her, you quit the crusade and began a smart bombing campaign"
[ 2015.06.04 01:53:50 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says softly. "I am not sure if you are aren;t too close to see what i am seeing..."
**END WHISPHER**
[ 2015.06.04 01:54:42 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote gazes fixedly at Regi.
[ 2015.06.04 01:55:04 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote notices Vlad as well and leans in to respond to Luna.
**WHISPHER
[ 2015.06.04 01:54:45 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote swallows, "I didn't know that was the case..." He mouths the word 'sleeper agent,' then looks up at Luna, "You can't think this means me?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:55:23 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I am concerned. I think you need to be evaluated by a specialist."
[ 2015.06.04 01:55:43 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I.. have no doubt you have always tried to act with Honor Sir.. but I fear you've been manipulated'
[ 2015.06.04 01:58:09 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "You must know that this is much to take in," He swallows, "But... it seems too serious to simply ignore." He glances at the letter again, whispering with pleading eyes, "You must know that I don't want this in my marriage."
[ 2015.06.04 01:58:35 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I don't want to have to tell Katerina but you must promise to see someone."
[ 2015.06.04 01:58:45 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I must know you are being taken care of, Sir..."
[ 2015.06.04 01:59:20 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods nervously, "You'll send me references?"
[ 2015.06.04 01:59:38 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Yes."
[ 2015.06.04 01:59:52 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, leaning back.
**END WHISPERS**
2015.06.04 01:56:08 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote swallows hard. He reaches for his cup of tea and takes a sip, though his hand is shaking, "I see."
[ 2015.06.04 01:56:20 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote straightens back up and sighs.
[ 2015.06.04 01:57:04 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote leans back in towards Luna.
[ 2015.06.04 01:58:09 ] Vlad Cetes > /emote orders another drink and connects to his security systems
[ 2015.06.04 02:00:05 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote sips her tea and sighs.
[ 2015.06.04 02:00:09 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Keep the envelope"
[ 2015.06.04 02:00:17 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Do with it as you will."
[ 2015.06.04 02:00:33 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote straightens, saying with a smile, "An excellent proposition, Lady Aspenstar. I will be certain to review this particular letterhead for the invitations at your suggestion."
[ 2015.06.04 02:01:21 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote takes another sip of tea, "When should I expect to next see you to plan the event?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:02:24 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I'd like to discuss this with some mutual friends, Lady Lianne, the Bishop and some other women, to see when the best time is to do it"
[ 2015.06.04 02:03:06 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods, "It sounds like a lovely idea. I'm sure Katerina will be thrilled."
[ 2015.06.04 02:03:28 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote glances at Reginald "I hope so. If Little Red were here, I am sure she'd see right into your head and know that is so." She adds dryly.
[ 2015.06.04 02:04:14 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "The last two baby showers we had were wonderful! Mrs. Pyrce and the Admiral Newelle were both happy with them,."
[ 2015.06.04 02:04:32 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote takes another sip of tea, then jots down information onto a piece of paper. He slides it back to Luna, "My contact information and Household Affairs Department. Let them know what they need to do and they shall."
**SECRET***
[ 2015.06.04 02:04:57 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote slides the piece of paper to Luna. On it is written, "Where do I go to get evaluated? When? And who do I see?"
**END SECRET**
[ 2015.06.04 02:05:37 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote takes the paper and slips in into her breast pocket. She nods.
[ 2015.06.04 02:07:34 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote freshens Luna's cup of tea, though his eyes are clearly elsewhere. His motions are automatic, of the type ingrained in him as a child growing up, preparing to be a Holder, a noble.
[ 2015.06.04 02:08:51 ] Thal Vadam > /emote finishes his tea and steps up to the ledge above the sea
[ 2015.06.04 02:09:08 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote murmers her thanks as she takes the cape again. She says lightly "Do you mind if I invite Templar Vadam over? I've not seen him in some time"
[ 2015.06.04 02:09:13 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > *tea
[ 2015.06.04 02:10:14 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote shakes his head, "Not at all, by all means." He glances towards Thal.
[ 2015.06.04 02:12:48 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says lightly, trying to catch Thal's attention "Hello, would you like to join us?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:14:43 ] Thal Vadam > /emote turns to Luna, and approaches Luna. He is roughly 7 feet tall in his armor. He bows "Lady Daphti...My Lord"
[ 2015.06.04 02:16:22 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods politely, "Templar, please." He motions to an open seat. He pours Thal a cup of tea, "Milk, sugar?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:17:17 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles warmly "what brings you here Templar?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:17:43 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks at the chair a moment, then sits "Just sugar...my Lord"
[ 2015.06.04 02:18:14 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks at Luna "...I like the view"
[ 2015.06.04 02:18:31 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "So do I." She sips her tea.
[ 2015.06.04 02:20:03 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote adds in the requisite sugar and provides Thal with the cup and a small assortment of miniature cakes.
[ 2015.06.04 02:20:47 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sets his left leg over his right "I also thought I'd visit Huola under positive circumstances for once"
[ 2015.06.04 02:21:08 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote takes another sip, "Positive circumstances?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:21:25 ] Thal Vadam > /emote takes the cup and bows his head in thanks to Regi
[ 2015.06.04 02:23:01 ] Thal Vadam > "The first time I was here sir, was in battle. The second, was in battle. The third, was in hell. The fourth, I buried a close friend."
[ 2015.06.04 02:23:59 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "How terrible," He frowns, "I've never been in a ground battle, but I was up there." He points towards the sky, "A flood of Minmatar and Gallente proxies overwhelming the Golden Fleet day after day, hour after hour."
[ 2015.06.04 02:24:46 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote turns to his neocom, "Though, please excuse me." He stands, bowing to Luna then to Thal, "My niece would like me to read her a bedtime story." He smiles, then departs for the manor.
[ 2015.06.04 02:25:43 ] Thal Vadam > /emote points across the ocean "I was out there. Fighting my way through swarms of Matari, watching artillery strikes turn green fields to wastelands"
[ 2015.06.04 02:26:00 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods at Regi
[ 2015.06.04 02:26:04 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says "good night Sir" as Reginald gets up and leaves." She turns her attention at Thal.
[ 2015.06.04 02:26:15 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "You were fighting here last year?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:26:50 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods at Luna "Yes my Lady, I was"
[ 2015.06.04 02:27:33 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "That must have been pretty awful. This was a populated world."
[ 2015.06.04 02:28:41 ] Thal Vadam > "Every battle us awful Luna...but this was probably the 2nd worst I've seen"
[ 2015.06.04 02:29:32 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Thank goodness the fighting never came close to here" She glances over the idyllic grounds.
[ 2015.06.04 02:30:19 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods slowly "Indeed...for every storm, there is a port"
[ 2015.06.04 02:32:39 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sighs "How are you Luna?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:32:51 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Fine." She gazes at Thal "Do you want to talk about it?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:32:55 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "What happened?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:33:28 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks at her a moment "...What do you mean?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:35:23 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "the fighting. it must have effected you for you to come... and look"
[ 2015.06.04 02:37:33 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods slowly "Indeed...Sometimes I can her the screams...then I remember the battles i've been through this month and wonder which screams are worse"
[ 2015.06.04 02:39:04 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says softly "Do you have nightmars"
[ 2015.06.04 02:40:28 ] Thal Vadam > "Every night...sometimes It seems like I experience a thousand hells whenever I close my eyes"
[ 2015.06.04 02:43:20 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "You did what you had to do"
[ 2015.06.04 02:44:36 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods slowly "Yes...I did...I give myself a horrible burden...which funny enough keeps me going"
[ 2015.06.04 02:45:18 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "What do you mean?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:47:34 ] Thal Vadam > "I tell myself 'If I don't fight for what's right, then who will?' I do what I do so one day mothers will one day no longer wave their children goodbye as they march off to war. I fight so others
[ 2015.06.04 02:47:44 ] Thal Vadam > don't have to"
[ 2015.06.04 02:51:55 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "You are needed. God has given you the vocation of being a protector"
[ 2015.06.04 02:52:58 ] Thal Vadam > /emote smiles slightly "...That's a word for it. But yes, yes he has"
[ 2015.06.04 02:53:44 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "As a Mother and grandmother I cherish people like you. Maybe one day it will be peaceful."
[ 2015.06.04 02:54:53 ] Thal Vadam > /emote smiles "Thank you Luna...I have felt cherished a lot recently...it is a good feeling"
[ 2015.06.04 02:56:09 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /slash: /emot enods.
[ 2015.06.04 02:56:16 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Your sister, how is she?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:56:29 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Does she still cherish you I hope?"
[ 2015.06.04 02:57:54 ] Thal Vadam > /emote frowns slightly "Yes...she does. She's in a medical facility at the moment...Since Sunday"
[ 2015.06.04 02:59:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Why?" She looks concerned.
[ 2015.06.04 03:00:09 ] Thal Vadam > "Awen visited..."
[ 2015.06.04 03:04:06 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "What did he do to her?"
[ 2015.06.04 03:06:02 ] Thal Vadam > "Her arm was hit by a laser"
[ 2015.06.04 03:06:18 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Will she be okay?"
[ 2015.06.04 03:06:37 ] Thal Vadam > "Yes"
[ 2015.06.04 03:07:55 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote exhals "That beast needs to be stopped"
[ 2015.06.04 03:09:14 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sighs "Indeed...He's kidnapping people...brainwashing them"
[ 2015.06.04 03:09:25 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "How awful."
[ 2015.06.04 03:09:33 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "i thought you two were like brothers"
[ 2015.06.04 03:09:55 ] Thal Vadam > "We were..."
[ 2015.06.04 03:12:03 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "How awful."
[ 2015.06.04 03:12:32 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "He still blamed you for what happened on that world didn't he?>"
[ 2015.06.04 03:14:54 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks at Luna "Which world?"
[ 2015.06.04 03:19:34 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "You or that awful creature killed him right?"
[ 2015.06.04 03:21:13 ] Thal Vadam > "Yes...he does"
[ 2015.06.04 03:32:21 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I wil pray for your sister. Maybe you should go the cathedral here if you need solace"
[ 2015.06.04 03:32:23 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sighs and sips his tea
[ 2015.06.04 03:33:28 ] Thal Vadam > "I have recently prayed at the temple in Myyhera...I'll need to speak with you privately soon"
[ 2015.06.04 03:33:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. She does not pry.
[ 2015.06.04 03:34:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Whenever you need too" she says softly.
[ 2015.06.04 03:34:48 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote yawns "I need to retire. Have a Blessed Night Sir"
[ 2015.06.04 03:34:54 ] Thal Vadam > "Let's just say...my love life is as complex as ever"
[ 2015.06.04 03:35:17 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "Good evening Luna"
[ 2015.06.04 03:38:44 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote gives thal a quizzical look as she gets up. She departs to the guest quarters.
