17:02:02
Have fun you two
17:03:56
Some time had passed during their last combative encounter. The jester Isafael's dungeon had recently come under attack during that time, and rockstar Aleda tried to help Isafael toughen up via pretending to be interested on the bounty posted on Isafael. However, the bounty was merely an excuse for Aleda to initiate a combative exercise with Isafael. It was the rockstar's hope that the encounter strengthened Isafael not necessarily in strength, but in strengthening the jester's resolve to better protect his dungeon, himself, and those that he cares about. Having been involved in an actual war in the past, the rockster could sympathize with the jester on that matter. The question is... did the jester improve since last time? Hmm... *The rockstar was already in the forest clearing leaning against a tree on the edge of the clearing... just scanning the open field before him... awaiting the arrival of the jester. His signature guitar Bloody Mary was nowhere to be seen... for now...
17:04:43
[[Kick that
Clown's Jester's Butt]]
17:08:15
Isafael was just beyond ths treeline that marked the edge of the clearing, smoking from his pipe. His eyes bore into Aleda's figure, but to be honest, he wasn't actually looking at Aleda at all. His thoughts were drifting back to himself, not the jester, or the mage, or the kyubi, but the person he was before he started wearing masks. Isafael let out a sigh as he finished puffing on his pipe, tapping the ash out against a tree and stuffing it into his bag. He took inventory while he was pearing inside, taking account of his smoke bombs and other toys. He took one step past the treeline before his eyes laid upon something, and a smirke olayed on his lips...
17:10:39
"Aleedaaa~"
Isafael approached from one of Aleda's flanks, giggling as he drew close to the rockstar, a particularly thick branch resting on his shoulder.
17:11:42
Im never gonna beat the clown accusations
17:15:09
You are very silly dear but also very sweet
Kisses Isafael's cheek
17:15:38
They aren't accusations if they are true~
17:16:16
Blows Isa a kissy
17:16:22
Do i look like i have a red nose?
17:18:17
While still leaning against a tree, the rockstar's head slowly turned in the direction of the familiar sounding voice... Well, if it isn't--hmm?
He would address the jester by name, but his eyes seem to immediately focus on the alleged weapon--a stick. Again... Again with this shit?
He lets out a sigh and is almost tempted to simply walk away at this point not knowing if the jester is taking this seriously at all Let me ask you something... are you gonna take this damn thing seriously or should I just leave?
17:18:57
You'd have one in your closet
17:21:33
isafael laughed, swinging the stick around loosely, "oh hush! If you're so much more viced in war than I, you'd see balue in improvised weaponry....."
17:23:48
No im in my closet-
17:24:01
Wait, no thats tom cruise-
17:24:08
.... versed* god im fucking stupid))
17:31:45
The rockstar slightly tilts his head to the side, and actually gives the jester something along the lines of a faint smirk--just a hint of admiration in the jester's words. The jester is right. Aleda would know--the rockstar having been through an actual war in the past. The brief smirk is not only a hint of admiration for the jester's words, but also an acknowledgement of some past events. Troubled times some of those days were, but the rockstar remembering fighting alongside others against a powerful villain back then bring in a flash flood of memories--some bad such as being trapped in a mountain for several weeks... and some good such as seeing Draco's Badass Rail Gun aka the BAR fire for the first time Heh!
The rockstar gives a quick nod to the jester. They both know what they're here for... Improvised. You have a point
Aleda taps a spherical object on his belt that drops down and instantly releases smoke upon landing on the ground--one of Lucie's smoke bombs from back in the day. Once the smoke dissipates, Aleda is leaning against another tree further away--still, without his guitar I'm curious on what you plan to do with that stick, so... you know why we're both here and shit like that. Start...
Aleda finishes up his thoughts with a literal snap of his fingers
17:37:06
((Hope you enjoy the past lore reference, Draco))
17:37:24
(Indeed I did ^~^)
17:37:43
Isaf took note of Aleda's own toys, he had come to realize that he and the rockstar wasn't so different than himself, this was just another show of that. At the crack of Aleda's fingers, the Jester dashed forward towards him, swinging the stick at a wide arc towards his opponent. "Do you think if I came here when you were up to that..hero stuff, i would've been your enemy?~"
17:44:02
((Welcome Aelia))
17:47:32
Aleda, Draco ^~^
17:47:48
. . .
scratching 'Genuine BAR' off of his gift wishlist out of sheer fear of what Draco might bring him
17:48:36
Aleda smirked as Isafael immediately charged at him after the snap of his fingers--almost as if on cue. The rockstar had a feeling that presenting himself as such an open target would be irresistible for the jester. Just before Isa fully closes the gap between them, a block hole immediately appears just to the front of Aleda's head and deposits Bloody Mary into the awaiting palms of the rockstar. Admittedly, summoning his guitar on such short notice causes a bit of a mental strain, but nonetheless, he manages to hit a single improvised note that brings up an invisible energy barrier that isn't seen until Isa's stick clashes against it--a white flash is seen at the point of contact and several lightning bolts are revealed in the process as they prevent the stick from swinging into the rockstar any further You're the one who calls me "hero." Not me. Let your fuckin' actions speak louder than words
17:54:05
peek Wooahh...powahful lightnin o.o
17:59:06
((Welcome Yoimi
resists making unlimited power joke))
18:00:20
Haii Draco, hai hai everyone
hides in a cozi corner to half-lurkingly observe thins ^^
18:01:45
Like a wounded animal, Isafael leapt away, landing on one knee just to the side. He took a second to ensure he hadn't taken any hits. Isaf giggled a bit as he stood, "always so 'fuckin' agressive, whats the 'fuckin' matter?~ don't consider yourself a 'fuckin' hero?~"
18:02:03
Guys i have the only food thst might beat a tamale
18:09:58
Aleda's eyes followed the retreating jester, and then the rockstar rolled his eyes after hearing the jester's comments Dude, you talk way too fuckin' much...
The rockstar cranked up his portable weaponized amplifier on his belt and struck a power chord on his guitar... the resulting sound waves fly in all directions with almost hurricane like force... causing nearby trees and other vegetation to bend I TOLD YOU TO LET YOUR FUCKIN' ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN FUCKIN' WORDS!
He yells through the violent winds... sort of proving Isa's fucking point, but also showing a point of his own
18:11:39
The hounds tooth woman stands half dry, half drenched in the storm watching the action from afar
18:17:06
Isafael Danced around the wave, getting caught in it a few times before retreating to behind the tree. Once it dissipated, he lobbed a few balls at Aleda, the rolled under his feet, and began to release colorful, sweet smelling smoke that seemed to fog aledas mind a tad along with obscuring his vision.
18:17:09
((
waves to Mai))
18:17:47
(You know for some reason, I'm imagining Mai looking at this like that Shoebill in that one meme)
18:18:35
18:20:05
Shit...
It was too late by the time Aleda noticed the the colorful and sweet smelling smoke around him. He felt a bit disoriented. Ugh! What trickery is this? Knowing that staying in this spot would only result in things getting worse, he points the headstock of his guitar in the general direction of where he last clearly saw the jester and unleashes a thick bright bolt of lightning that has enough recoil to cause the rockstar to slide across the ground--leaving a trail of disturbed dirt behind as the force of the lightning continues to push him backwards until he's in a smoke free zone
18:26:33
Isafael wasnt there, his trap had been sprung and had the desired affect. He came from up high, a tree above aleda, swing down at Aleda, giggling and laughing, Up here!~"
he teased.
18:28:21
(The Shoebill menace)
18:29:04
((Indeed~
waves to Isa))
18:29:21
(Yep
Waves at Isa also)
18:29:31
(Woo get his jester ass, Aleda)
18:32:27
God, everyone wants my ass to get kicked-
18:34:40
(I am welcummed. 🙂↕️)
18:35:12
You’re the underdog. Prove the others wrong
18:35:40
Aleda let out a small sigh of relief as he thought he was completely out of danger, but... "Up here!"
And... look up he did. The jester is closing in a little too fast! There's no time to dodge or block for that matter, so the rockstar simply meets the attack with an attack of his own by swinging his guitar upward... not to necessarily hit the jester, but to send a last second wave of electrical energy flying into the jester's direction
18:36:51
Gooooooo Aledaaaaa
18:36:56
((Nice to see you again, Jodie~))
18:37:28
It was enough to set the jester off course, and fry him a little. He landed jsut in front of aleda, scowling as he tried to swing at him with the stick, more so as a way to get the rockstar to back away.
18:41:11
Aleda, Ozzy is gone :(
18:47:59
Yeah... I heard
Pats Chloe Truly, we lost a legend today
18:48:21
((We can talk about that later. Not right now please))
18:48:55
(Understandable)
18:49:03
Dude Ozzy Osborne died-))
18:50:27
((Yeah just wanted to let you know in case you didn’t hear, have fun with isa))
18:50:36
Picks up Chloe and hugs her Hi dear ^~^
18:51:08
Non magical attacks cause the rockstar's past martial arts training to surface--almost on instinct, and he dodges as appropriate. He hops a few steps back noticing that Isa's swinging technique is more to get the rockstar to back off than anything else. Now, seems like the perfect opportunity to reveal a rare sight. Aleda stretches both his hands out to the sides of his body--no hands on his guitar. It glows a bright red and seems to turn into a red mist that stretches out into a long line... before it turns into a solid object again--a red colored staff. He spins it around and it whistles in the air as if letting out musical notes along the air
18:51:22
Your husband stinks
18:51:28
...
Gives Chloe a soft bap on the head
18:51:46
slow, dramatic fall to the ground
18:52:05
That wasn’t nice Draco…
18:52:53
Neither is calling my husband stinky *Gives Chloe a plate of nacho's
18:53:59
*noms nachos I guessi
18:54:50
*Isaf stood as he behld the sight. Even out of breath, he had to talk shit at the very least to feign
18:54:50
Stares at the plate of rained upon nachos in the distance
18:54:51
Returns my attention to the fight
18:55:18
The Nachos have an umbrella over them
18:55:19
Stenght,* "A staff, really..never figured you for the Donatello type..." He rolled his shoulders, tiwrling the stick in one hand,* "-I dont suppoed it'd be original if i told you where to shove that staff, would I?~"
18:56:01
** Marcos 🍹🔮♥️ flipped a coin! Tails! **
18:56:29
looks at the coin and silently bet on Aleda
18:56:59
gives Mai a plate of cookies
18:58:20
The mime yanks a coin from her pocket to flip haphazardly and kick towards the jesters head
18:59:03
She then grabs a cookie and eats it quickly in fear of it becoming soaked
18:59:40
The rockstar let out a huff as he looks to the side after hearing the jester's jest Huh. Fair enough. I could say the same about...
He points points a finger gun at Isa's stick before shrugging Anyway!
The rockstar twirls his staff in front of him as he approaches the jester--musical whistling sounds are heard before he thrusts the staff toward a random body part on the jester
19:00:37
The stick wasnt going to cut it, itd break too easily, Quickly, Isafael drew his sword, parrying Aleda's attack and responding with one of his own, "Are we getting serious, my friend?~ "
19:04:22
*Doubles Marcozzo's bet since he's a seer it's guaranteed to go in.
19:07:51
What kind of trick?
19:09:22
There's a sudden metallic clash that rings throughout the forest clearing. This surprises the rockstar at first, but then he realizes that the jester finally drew out his sword. He doesn't respond--at least, not verbally. He simply smirks at the jester as if acknowledging the jester's improved determination compared to last time. Last time, the jester didn't even use the sword. In any case, the rockstar takes jumps backwards to put space in between them
19:09:31
...
Hums and does a series of... fairly mediocre Card Shuffling Tricks for Chloe
19:09:34
I am now a chibi.
19:09:56
Isa can do better tricks that that
19:12:12
Hums and grabs out my cloak a Gameboy Pocket before handing it to Chloe
19:12:46
You're comparing me to Isafael, he's a clown. It's his duty to entertain people.
19:12:52
applauds draco better then isa and Jin
plays Tetris
19:13:05
Not a clown
coughcough
19:13:14
Isafael raised his guard as Aleda stepped away, slowly beggining to circle him. "I think this is the part where i tell you my name and what you've done to my father..."
he studied Aleda like a hawk, waiting fornthe rockstar to tale the next move.
19:13:58
sneaks in and places a 'Ganbare Senpai' banner down by the edge of the trees before scampering off
19:14:16
...thats a compliment and i acceot it wholeheartedly
19:14:18
((
will check for Alyce's banner later))
19:14:59
wait that’s old news
19:15:25
Didn't know you knew Korean Jin
19:15:47
I've been watching korean series.
19:16:43
Not much to watch lately
19:16:52
...
Pokes Jin's nose You love Korean Drama's :3
19:16:55
Launches another coin at the jester
19:17:10
I don't. They got some good action stuff.
19:17:27
I ain't got no time for no drama.
19:17:33
Korean? I hardly know anne!
19:17:46
...yeah ill leave-
19:17:52
Nods Jin's locked in
19:18:49
you know I saw a bad clown once
19:19:14
Nah. I'm not locked in at all. I'm reading MILF hunting in another world 👋
19:19:19
he was playing aleda and was dating Draco
19:19:30
Jin's locked in on MILFs
19:19:30
wait that’s just you sorry
19:19:33
Aleda kept watch over the jester who was circling around him like a hawk. The sword coming into play definitely takes things to another level! Patiently, the rockstar twirls his whistling red staff around. It's not just to look cool. It certainly does look and sound cool, but the twirling makes the motions of the staff look unpredictable. Suddenly, the rockstar feels like he sees an opening and he goes for an overhead strike on the jester
19:19:53
It’s zyi the unhinged
19:21:03
at least pretty hinged
19:21:19
dawg what's that supposed to mean
19:21:51
I eat dogs dont try me
19:22:00
(joke btw dont un-exist me O' GREAT ONES)
19:23:18
Zyi is a mostly hinged yeah. Only a quarter unhinged :p
19:23:21
hides behind draco
19:23:55
Isaf dashed to the side, returning with a slash of his own. As much as Isafael adored his rapier, it wasnt made to block and parry a weapy like aleda's staff, so from now on, hed be less prone to doing so. Hed need to beat Aleda before he tired himself out. " Im quicker than you imagined, arent I?"
19:24:03
Zyi had that brainrot speech.
19:24:21
Nobody is as unhinged as me
19:24:21
Now she seems more normal.
19:24:24
Well, maybe the doggo but they dont count
19:24:30
I havent had the time to doomscroll TikTok for a while
19:24:51
ay wait wdym 'more normal'
19:25:07
You must be seeing and hearing things.
19:25:33
Anyways. Should I call your meimei was it?
19:25:58
she's awake at this time , tsk tsk
19:26:25
I have the right cuz I just woke up from sleeping
19:26:39
I'm kidding. She's probably asleep.
19:27:15
That's very impressive Chloe
19:29:19
And that's how you change subjects and make people forget about the earlier words.
19:29:32
Jin should watch Memories of the Alhambra
19:29:54
I havent forgotten lol
19:30:21
I'm not watching love drama.
19:30:47
It's not a love drama
19:31:39
With romantic subplot
19:31:50
Marcos wanna hear a neat thing
19:31:51
you are cooler then Jin ^~^
19:31:59
long time no see
19:32:06
I'm cooler than Jin
19:32:16
Haters exist to make me shine brighter.
19:32:35
lame ppl no talks
19:32:39
The good thing about a staff is that you can utilize both ends as a weapon. Even though the rockstar was in the middle of swinging downward, he was able to swing the bottom half of the staff upward just enough for a metallic clash to be heard as the sword is redirected somewhere else. Immediately afterward, Aleda twirls the staff around while getting back in a proper fighting stance Yeah, that may be problem, so...
In one swift motion, Aleda pulls on both ends of the staff and there's a bright flash of red light as the staff is now divided into two red rods--sacrificing the reach of the staff for quicker movements and reactions. Now able to move faster than with the guitar or the staff, the rockstar closes in... thrusting one rod forward while keeping the other one held back in reserve
19:32:42
I'm telling Blanc. I'm her father
19:32:59
dui bu qiiii ninnn
19:33:21
How was it again...
19:33:35
ni yi wei ni shi shei
19:34:04
Look Marcos. I'm her father.
19:34:28
who do u think you are lol
19:34:30
I've learned some swear words
19:35:06
ive learnt them ALL
19:35:13
I understand none of this
19:35:16
Isaf bounced on his feet as he tried to keep track of aledaz. He parried the rod, and responded with a thrust of his blade towards Aleda. "ngh! Well aren't you just FULL of surprises!"
19:35:24
Foul words, don't worry. It's words that you pick up after playing competitive games.
19:35:51
this is like a greeting
19:36:03
has not met avg chinese family 😭
19:36:25
Seems like something would learn playing with chinese in battle royale games
19:36:45
I mean I live in the Midwest
19:36:55
Mom sky go boom is also a good one
19:37:22
My family swear a lot and don't speak like this lol
19:37:34
I know just one classic
19:38:21
Okay, then Jin. Whatch "Good Boy" i think it's only action and no romance
19:38:51
Jin gets called that every night-
19:39:04
I mean I only know one particularly long swear
19:39:06
Weren't you called good boy yesterday by the witch?
19:39:13

19:39:14
...Honestly I'd say the swear but again... it's long
19:39:50
I will put it in the list
19:39:58
It's Olympic athletes joining the police force
19:40:01
After I finish MILF hunting in another world 😋
19:40:09

Gives Zyi a headpat
19:41:00
HARK, OH HARK THAT ON THIS DAY, TUESDAY JULY 22ND IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD 2025, JIN TALE ADMITTED TO MILF HUNTING
19:41:34

19:41:52
I haven't MILF hunted anyone.
19:41:54
I'm reading something called that!
19:41:59
Zyi, let me teach you something
19:42:12
NOPE, NO TAKE BACKS
19:42:22
Focus up Jester, you about to lose.
19:42:40
It does seem like it sometimes, huh?
The rockstar responds rather dryly as quickly crosses his two red rods into an X to push the jester's blade upward and off target Damn! Why didn't you do all this shit last time? This is...
The red rods makes whistling noises as he twirls them while getting back into a proper fighting stance This is... fucking awesome!~
It's almost as if the rockstar is legitimately enjoying their spar But this has to end some time, dude
His look becomes more serious and then he leaps towards the jester with both rods lifted up as if aiming to strike down the jester with both rods at the exact same time
19:42:52
Means "not even fucking"
19:43:23
I will use it NOT sparingly
19:43:25
I thought It was ' no fucking way
19:43:36
Uh ye. I translated it literally like an idiot
19:44:07
nom fodendo did you just call me a good girl
19:46:02
Isaf reaponded with only a grunt as he dashed forward into the Rockstar, His blade clashing with the rods, the Jester bracing himself as he met Aleda. Blade began eminaye a blue glow as the smell of sweat and enegery filled the air.
19:46:56
Pfftt you aren't?
19:46:56
You are doom scrolling again
19:48:10
...
Just gives Zyi some headpats There's the quarter bit of unhinged
19:49:11

Go check dms zyi
19:50:35
You scared her away Marcozzo...
19:51:28
mention this and I shall do horrible things
19:51:58
There's a metallic clash that's heard throughout the forest. Again. But, this time, it feels thicker and it sounds louder than usual. The sound wave from it alone seems to shake the trees and vegetation around as if they were hit by a brief gust of wind. As Isafael's blade glows blue... Aleda's rods glow red... and they get brighter and brighter as they try to break through each other's defenses. After several moments, the brightness is blinding. It smells like electricity and metal in the air--and even the air feels like it's heating up. Truly, a metal as fuck moment. Suddenly, the brightest of flashes happens... and both are strewn across the ground
19:53:26
isaf skitted acrossed the ground, stopping as his bwck hit a tree. His sword apha dbeen sent flying and landing sticking out of a mound of dirt. "What the...what was......what was thar.."
hpisaf muttered as he shakily sat up.
19:55:21
While Aleda was on the ground... the two rods formed into red mists and rejoined to solidify into guitar form once again Ugh... yeah, what the fuck was that about?
The rockstar mumbled while shifting to one knee and taking a look around. He didn't bother picking up his guitar anymore. Instead, he slowly stood up and looked over to Isafael... with a softened expression on his face--his usual friendly demeanor seemingly having returned Dude... that was... fucking awesome!
19:59:13
"Glad you think so...of what the hell..I need some...Ibuprofen"
Isafael srood, rubbing his head and leaning agianst the tree that had stopped him.
20:00:37
Damn...
Aleda walked over to Isafael and offered him a bag of gummies Well, it's not ibuprofen, but these should help... a bit... or some shit
20:03:56
"Th-thanks.."
he took the bag, popping a gummy and rubbing his head. "...al4ighty, lets get outnof this joint- getting tired of the smell of pine-"
20:05:28
Yeah... agreed...
The rockstar said with a sigh as he caught up on his breath You did... awesome, dude. You stayed determined even through all the pressure on you. Now, let's get you back to your dungeon or something
With his last bit of energy, the rockstar stretches his hand out towards the leftover blade and the leftover guitar in the field... a black hole opens up near each item and sucks them up. The black holes then close and reopen near them--depositing the blade into Isafael's hands while Aleda gets his guitar back
20:10:05
"Thanks..."
he sheathed his sword, motioning for Aleda to follow him. He began his way down the path out of thr forest. (scene?)
20:11:42
((I'm good here if you are))
20:11:56
Yepyep, that was awesome!
20:12:12
((Always nice to have this kind of lore. Thanks for everything!))
20:12:33
((Thanks for visiting, everyone!))
20:13:28
((Okay, I'll close up the room unless you need anything else?))
20:14:06
(Thanks for the show!)
20:14:13
** Aleda (Cake By The Ocean) left the game (definitively). **
20:14:49
