Fairly accurate paraphrasing.

(Clan): You say, "It's really annoying taking the time to kill denizens I can turn in for 7-8k only to have someone swoop in at the last second to kill the denizen that takes the corpses."

(Clan): @Hhaos says, "Kill them."

(Clan): Hhaos says, "And their family."

(Clan): Hhaos says, "The only people worse are the people that hang around the gateway to Minia."

Did lol most heartily.

Drual and Tristyn arrives, following Aodfionn, riding a giant eagle, from the west.
An armoured ebon-scaled wyvern regards Aodfionn with a casual glance, before turning her attention elsewhere.

Deacon Aodfionn Wintermourne, Sentinel of the Ivory Dawn says in Targossian, "Here is the Altar of Mercy. To your right, you can see the Herald, terrifying a housemate."

Very funny. I was almost crapping myself.

(Newbie): Romeo says, "Meanwhile, you could ask your fellow citymates for their input. Talk to them using CT <your message>." 

(Newbie): Aerosi says, "Dude, I'm in Mhaldor. I don't think that would be wise."

Santar

Aerosi has been slain by Troni.

5 mins later

(Newbie): Aerosi says, "Fuck you, Romeo."

Our newbies are catching on.  

That said, I haven't heard a "silence, slave" in weeks, despite several speaking out of turn on CT.

Valaria

maybe the implication that newbies you has, are the alts.

Shieldwarden Bronislav Zviera yells from close at hand, "Stop right there, 

criminal scum!"

Shieldwarden Bronislav Zviera yells from close at hand, "Drop yer pants and 

prepare to be boarded!"

You see Villanelle Kelvin Traseran, Minstrel Of The Waves yell, "NEVER!!!"

You yell, "I'm not wearing any pants..."

The striped form of a mime wanders along the streets of Delos, moving normally for the moment. Suddenly, something lashes out and drags the mime into an alley and out of sight. A brief time passes before someone else walks out of the alley, carrying a bloodied, frayed striped shirt in their hands.

@Aktillum

I hadn't seen this one before either:

The sounds of imminent conflict waft in from the Eastern Road, where two shapes can be seen moving rapidly toward the coast. With barely a second to lose, the person in front runs up a gangplank and orders it pulled up, then begins performing various vulgar taunts at the chaser.

Ruth

I like that second message.

You read what is written on an elegant white letter:

So was escorting a non-citizen into Mhaldor for a bite to eat and discussing various bits...

Isarian Scribe Kelia Crescent says, "Do you mind if I get some fresh fruit?"

You say curiously with a flowing, cultured accent, "Feel free."

You read what is written on an elegant menu:

Baelgrim Bistro

Gour shank stew, 500gs

High Seas basket, 450gs

Pillaged Forest Salad, 350gs

Apricot turnover, 255gs

Fruit plate, 225gs

----------------------------

Kill and Cook special offerings are as follows:

Bear surprise, 400gs

Mussel surprise, 355gs

Baby seal surprise, 325gs

(Have your fresh corpse ready!)

----------------------------

* Additional 200gs price for Heathens!

Isarian Scribe Kelia Crescent says, "This is not something I have felt in nearly a hundred years..."

Kelia gets some gold sovereigns from a wyrmskin pack.

Kelia gives some gold sovereigns to Dialdre, a highbrow waiter.

Dialdre, a highbrow waiter says, "Why do we even serve heathens? Fine. I'll get your fruit."

Dialdre grunts at Kelia and turns on his heels, heading for the kitchens.

Dialdre ambles slowly back to the table and drops a rotting banana before Kelia.

Dialdre, a highbrow waiter says, "There. Eat it."

You blink.

You say amusedly with a flowing, cultured accent, "Goodness."

Kelia blinks.

Isarian Scribe Kelia Crescent says, "Well..."

(Awkward pause of uncertainty, then)

Kelia adventurously rips open a rotten banana, spilling black fluid all over her hand. Giving up, she licks the thick remains and immediately spits it out with disgust.

You have emoted: Melodie tries to cover her laughter with her hand, but fails miserably as she snickers.

Isarian Scribe Kelia Crescent says, "Well...maybe I shouldn't order..."

I could not stop laughing for a good bit there. You're a genius, @Jurixe.

Jurixe

While I had been pestering admin for a restaurant in Mhaldor for a long time, I had nothing to do with the actual design/implementation process (beyond some room descriptions) and so can't take credit for that. That was entirely the work of the Celani/admin/@Sartan/whoever did it, so thank them instead! I've never seen that though and that is hilarious - love the Mhaldorian flavour.

Ognog

I think I might avoid Mhaldor for my next fine dining experience.

Antidas

You say, "How many Mhaldorians does it take to light a chandelier? Silence, slave!"

Best badjoke ever

I KNEW IT BANANAS ARE EVIL.

@Aodfionn @Daeir @Melodie

I am now in firm belief of bananas being evil, I assure you.

Suddenly I'm glad I didn't order anything. I hate to think about what they'd have done to the stew, we've all seen Waiting.

Multon

@Aerek, it moves from time to time, and occasionally there's a toe, or something in it, but as long as you chew your food well it isn't a problem... The blood pudding is pretty good too!

Taraza

I'm really tempted to grab @Jarrod and give him gold and have him order every item from the menu just to see what happens. 

Multon

@Taraza I second this idea! I am so willing to see this happen that I would even have @MultonEAT all the food that @Jarrod is brought if he doesn't want to!

Jarrod

  

This sounds like a terrible idea!

Later on towards the end of the conversation, we were talking about Suffering. I then made her order one of everything on the menu and eat it in front of me, asked how she felt, then took her to the Gates and told her to have a pleasant day. The other food choices were pretty good, too!

She even told me she won't throw my lessons up. What a trooper.

Hhaos

You say with a strong, Hashani accent, "Duanatha."

You say with a strong, Hashani accent, "Duanatharan."

You say with a strong, Hashani accent, "FLY DAMMIT."

@Ayleth attempts to stifle her amusement but cannot help laughing aloud.

Ayleth puts on a pair of eagle's wings.

Hhaos flaps his arms like wings.

So this thing has been around for 100+ years, but I only recently learned what it's supposed to do:

a black glass vial

Cylindrical and ample, this artfully fashioned receptacle is a work of sable
glass, the vitreous translucence of the dark material permitting the merest
glimpse of its contents. Every dimension precise, and every detail perfect, the
vial's aesthetic qualities are beyond reproach. Encircling its walls within an
embossed border, a scene is captured in relief. Looming over the round horizon
of a partially depicted world, the Terraformer plunges His hands through earth
and sea alike, reshaping the terrestrial realm.
It weighs 4 ounce(s).
Water sloshes about in it.

You take a long draught of water, hoping to quench your thirst.
The surface of the vial subtly shifts in your hand.

vial's aesthetic qualities are beyond reproach. Encircling its walls within an
embossed border, a scene is captured in relief. Clad in a suit of black armour,
the iniquitous Lord @Sartan holds a mighty sword aloft. Etched lines depict a
rocky cave swimming with curls of crimson glass behind the God of Evil, and a
prominent stalagmite towers at its centre.
It weighs 4 ounce(s).

Watched @Daeir babysit. Some highlights...

A slightly panicked expression flits across Daeir's features.

Daeir looks at you pleadingly.

...

Lord Daeir Wintermourne, Sentinel of the Flame says, "Here, um.."

Lord Daeir Wintermourne, Sentinel of the Flame says, "Come sit on my dragon thing. We'll go get candy, or something."

...

Lord Daeir Wintermourne, Sentinel of the Flame whispers to Tibitha, "When the candy doesn't work, what do you do?"

...

You say, "If she throws up, the last person who gave her candy will be the one to clean it."

Daeir pauses abruptly.

...

Lord Daeir Wintermourne, Sentinel of the Flame says, "There are laws against yelling and screaming in Cyrene, right?"

...

Lord Daeir Wintermourne, Sentinel of the Flame says, "Seven hells, just.. do something."

Aodfionn leaves to the west.

...

Lord Daeir Wintermourne, Sentinel of the Flame says, "I am never having children."

Lord Daeir Wintermourne, Sentinel of the Flame says, "Ever."

...

Daeir shoots a pleading glance at Aodfionn.

...

Lord Daeir Wintermourne, Sentinel of the Flame says to Aodfionn, "Stop gawking and do something!"

(Newbie): Muze says, "But couldn't a corpse be a blunt weapon?"

(Newbie): Romeo says, "Look, kid, if you're going to start flailing grandma I'm not going to stop you, but I'm almost certain that a well crafted shiv will serve you better."

edit: darn line breaks

Multon

(Newbie): Muze says, "But couldn't a corpse be a blunt weapon?"

Someone's been playing a little too much Dwarf Fortress...

Skye

You say innocently with a muddled Thalassan accent, "But I'm a barrel."

Probably the first and last IC dinky barrel reference in years.

Kinilan

Nfi what what the big deal is. Let her drink the whole barrel and she'll go to sleep. The end.
