Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap

Cordial invitation to Zona K. Noakes and otherwise open for anyone who wishes to join in!It had been quite some time since Elaine had seen her fine feathered friend. Since the battle and such Zona had pretty much disappeared. Her and her brother, which made the young feline ander a bit sad. The lack of opinions from the blue haired woman had made Elaine's day a bit dull, but despite that most of the assassins time to mope was cut drastically short between jobs and working on straightening things out for the guild. She was trying to make sure she did whatever Edelweiss needed. However, at the moment Elaine needed to go spend some time with her friend. So she set off looking for her.

"Wow... That was somethin'..." Zona said to herself as she walked out of the theater rubbing the back of her neck. The night before she took up a job and man was she rusty, it had been far too long since the last time she had done that. But with that being said everything still went fine and the job was taken care of, it just took a bit longer than expected. Zona stopped for a moment when she got outside, she forgot how much she liked this part of the city, she forgot how much she liked this city. Even with its flaws and downfalls it was still her home, still the place she grew up in. Smiling a bit Zona shoved her hands in her pockets and began to head off. A nice nap could do the girl some good. Though the nap would have to wait.
Zona's smile grew wider as she saw an old friend, someone who she hadn't seen in a very long time, "Well look who it is." Zona said with a smirk as she began to walk towards the girl. "I haven't seen ya in months! How have ya been?" She questioned as she slowly got closer. In hindsight she really should have waited to say something to Elaine until she was at least a few feet away, but excitement got the better of her and she just had to start talking.

Elaine heard a familiar voice fade into hearing. "Zona!" She straight up shouted excitedly as she whirled on her heels. Her dark gray long sleeved shirt accented by a black leather vest. She'd slipped into her usual CAEsAL attire for the day. Having planned to take a job or work if she couldn't find her friend.
"I've been great! What about you?!" The girl said , practically bouncing. The deep velvety red cloak tucked around her hips blowing back as she walked towards Z to shorten their distance. Under the cloak was her twin daggers, another weapon tucked in her boot, and one up under her vest. Little missy didn't seem to play around anymore when it came to protecting herself. The mass of curls on her shoulders pulled back as usual and held in place with her goggles.
Elaine looked Zona up and down with curious eyes. Finally stopping on the blue hair she knew all too well. "We have a lot to talk about!"

Zona smiled as the girl walked up to her, she was a bit surprised that the girl didn't tackle her to the ground upon seeing her. "I've been well, I've been well." Zona said as she crossed her arms over her chest. She smiled a bit wider as Elaine said they needed to talk and catch up. "Ya we sure do, but let's head off somewhere. How about we grab somethin' to eat?" Zona asked as she looked at the girl. It had been far too long since she last saw her.

Elaine smiled widely, mimicking Zonas arm crossing. "Let's go downtown? Or your favorite eh? Either one works!" She turned her body slightly, indicating she was willing to go. And undoubtedly eager with the way she was nearly bouncing on her toes. She wasn't sure if Zona had heard the news yet.
Post by Zona K. Noakes on Aug 18, 2016 2:35:56 GMT
"You know me, I ain't too picky with what I eat." Zona said with a smirk, as she shrugged her arms a bit. "We could head downtown and just stop at whatever place looks good." She suggested as she slowly began to walk in that direction, figuring the Elaine would agree with her but still staying slow enough in case she decided against it. Zona smiled as the two began walking, it had been far, far too long since she had last seen Elaine, though she looked to be in something a bit different than normal. "So what's with the look? Got some place to be tonight?" Zona questioned with a slight smirk and a raised eyebrow, knowing full well that black meant a job would be happening.

Elaine quickly fell into step with her, casting a glance or two around. Before smirking a bit at Zona's question. "I was intending to do some errands down at the Theater. But not a job." She murmured quietly. Keeping a smile on her face to look unsuspicious. "Lets find a nice place with a good back booth. Then I'll tell you all about it. Until then, how was the trip?" She was keeping her position on the down low outside at least. But she wouldn't mind telling it all to Z once inside to their lonesome.

Zona raised an eyebrow a little at what the girl said, normally she would be going crazy about what was going on and whatnot, but seeing as how she wanted a back booth this must be something big. "Ah ya that." Zona said as she looked forward again, keeping an eye out for a good place to eat. "It was nice. I actually invite- scratch that, made Keefe go with. I though he could use some time away from whatever he does to relax a bit and talk with me. I had to nearly drag the kid by his foot to the boat." Zona said with a smirk. "Other than that it was nice." She said as her smile softened a bit, it really was a nice trip.

"I'm glad you made him go, you both needed it." She laughed. Looking around, she picked a nice looking bar off to their right. Tugging Zonas sleeve and motioning to it before heading on that direction. "I need to talk to him soon." She shifted a bit, resituating her daggers under the cloak.
She walked up to the guard at the door, noticing his skeptical stare. "Hi there!" Elaine called happily, giving a little wave. He grunted softly. "We're just here for some drinks and a nice chat." The feline ander said pushing past him towards the for only to be stopped by an arm. She looked vaguely annoyed. "We're just wanting to sit and enjoy ourselves." The man stated hard at her. Elaine widened her eyes, shrinking a bit under his gaze. Before standing taller.
She waved her hand in a loose, carefree manner in his direction. "I guess we'll just leave... hate to be here when you have to tell your boss he's losing valuable customers because you're not welcoming..." She cast a bit of magic. "We are just carefree girls." The assassin shrugged, watching the man's expression change to confused and then he started second guessing himself. He moved his arm. Elaine grabbed Zonas hand and darted through.

Zona watched as Elaine worked her way into the bar, she couldn't help but smirk some. "Ya know, ya didn't have to use that. I know where the back door is, we could have sneaked in that way." She said with a smile as she Found a booth in the back of the building, out of the way and out of ear shot from anyone else. Sitting down Zona stretched a bit as she got comfortable, "So whats the news ya have to tell? Or did you make me wait for nothin'?" She said with a smirk.

"Oh come on Z, when would I ever pass up a chance to practice some magic?" She teased sitting down and putting her chin in her hand as she leaned forwards. "Well then," Elaine laughed, "I suppose we're going to skip all the pleasantries and dive right in. Very well. First things first, me and you are going to team up on a job and spend some time together. We can work first because I have my eye on a target but I'd like some extra hands and wings. Then we can go do anything we like later on." The girl absently waved her hand a bit before brushing some hair out of her eyes. Her goggles dangling around her neck. She then grinned widely, "And you won't believe it, Edelweiss set up a new CAEsAL Second-In-Command....."

"I'm down for that." Zona said with a bit of a smirk, "It seems like forever since I last had a job." She added as she looked of to the side some. Her eyes moved from person to person as Elaine spoke, there weren't too many people in here... "Wait, there is a new 2nd?" Zona questioned as her eyes darted back to the girl, "What happened with Stephen? I mean I know I haven't seen him in a bit but wow... I didn't expect that..." Zona said as she looked down at the table for a moment. She couldn't help but feel a little sad that he wasn't in charge anymore, though at the same time it was probably better for him. "So wait who's the new one then?" Zona asked as she looked back up at the girl.

Elaine sat back a bit. "Stephen is alright, I know that. He had to go out of the city for business of some sorts. At least that's what Edel told me." She thought it over, she would have enjoyed Stephen's thought and slight direction in this if the situation has been catered that way. But as soon as he returned she'd definitely be asking questions. "He won't be gone forever. But as for the new 2nd..." The feline have a slight shrug, not exactly sure how to say it without looking too excited. "You're looking at her."
Post by Zona K. Noakes on Aug 24, 2016 18:37:58 GMT
"Well that's good that nothing happened to him." Zona said with a bit of a shrug, it was always better to hear that someone was just leaving rather then have something major happen to them. Looking back over to the girl Zona waited to hear who the new 2nd in command was, and when Elaine finally said it, Zona's eyes went a little wide. "Whoa, wait, your the new?.. Whoa, well congrats!" Zona said with a smile as she sat up some, a bit surprised to hear that Elaine had all that power know. "Its insane to think that you would technically be my boss." Zona said with a smirk, "Wow.." Zona couldn't help but be a bit jealous though. She had been around longer and was a bit older than the girl, but Elaine kept a cooler temper than she did, and fit the job a bit better, but still... She couldn't help but think. Shaking the thought from her head as quickly as it came in she smile, "Lets get a round of drinks! They will be my treat!" She said, acting as though the thoughts that she just had never crossed her mind. Beside, Elaine was still her best friend and she was happy for her, and a change of status really didn't mean too much to Zona after all she still messed with Stephen even though he was 2nd.

The girl was watching Zona a bit more intensely then she normally would. Waiting to see how the news would be taken, and to her relief it was taken well. She laughed at the mention of technically being Zona's boss. Inside her mind she knew that would be different but she wanted to assure Zona it wasn't going to change anything really. They listen and work well together just as they are and it would be fantastic if it never changed. "Look, I'm only your boss when we are working. But even then I am still your friend." She said, brushing rogue curls out of her eyes. Still giggling at the offer of drinks. "That sounds like a good idea!" She agreed, not really one to drink but also not one to turn down an offer to have a good time. Especially with the blue haired ander she'd missed so much.
