BLOG RESET

[ As of today, 10/25/2018, all threads have been voided aside from three that I’ve already contacted my partners about! If there is a thread you’d like to keep going, feel free to respond or reply to this post and I’ll make due for it~ Otherwise, Balmung is getting a fresh start on threads, relationships, memes, the whole blog essentially. I felt back making him so sour most of the time. He’s an old administrator that’s dealt with things like this for far too long, it’s about time I lean back on the gas pedal and allow him to take it slow. I decided to keep most of the blog as it was, because I honestly like going back to read old threads. ]

[ Threads will open again soon! I have to fix a few of my icons and redo a couple new things for the blog, but he’ll be back in action (hopefully) soon. Online/offline info and rules have been entirely redone, along with a fresh coat on verses and how I’ll be tackling them. Hopefully, I can keep activity somewhat consistent, even if it is on a queue! ]

#The One Sin ❆ out of character

balmung-of-the-azure-sky

[ Blog is about to undergo serious changes; I’m wiping the slate clean of threads, interactions, memes, and otherwise! There’s a few I’ll be keeping, but once the mast post deleter starts up, I can’t really stop it-- might be for the best. I think it’s been time for a fresh start here for a while, so I can add things like a proper tagging system, a better layout for the blog, better graphics... It’s been years, but I hope to start a rebound with featherboi soon! ]

Silabus bowed a little, rubbing the back of his head. He didn’t mean to nearly bump into anyone on his way to the guild but he hadn’t really been paying attention. He was just glad this player wasn’t trying to PK him for the slight.

“I was trying to get to the @home. It’s gotten harder ever since CC corp and Sakaki turned Breg Epona and Lumina Cloth into PVP friendly zones. One on one I usually don’t have a problem but they’re working in groups now.”

“If you guide the way back to your @.home, I can cover you.” He felt bad after this update-- at least he has a name to the player who had a hand in bringing this about. Not like he could do anything about it as event staff.

“This really is a gorgeous Root Town. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth that someone’d be willing to turn it into a war zone, especially for players who don’t want to fight other players.” He keeps a hand on the hilt of his sword, just in case.

“The last location we were all together was the Karma Temple. However… it crumbled under our feet, disintegrating and leaving behind a vast nothingness. I can only hope everyone else was transported away safely…” Otherwise they’d be dead like the rest of the people that resided in that world.

Serph tilted his head at the others’ offer. What was an @.home? His best guess was that it was this person’s base of operations. Was it wise to just go with him…? Hm… it wasn’t as if he had much in the way of other options. If it was a trap of some sort, he’d just have to work his way out of it.

“Alright.” He gave a curt nod before returning to his meal, scarfing down the last of it. Pausing for a moment to pick at his shark like teeth, a fragment of the monster had gotten stuck in-between ‘em. Once that was taken care of his stood up straight and gave his full attention to Balmung.

“I’m ready, please lead the way.”

None of the talk made any sense to the administrator. Even if he understood none of it, it was still enough for him to understand this may not be an event-- he’d know about it first off, and this ‘character’s’ story would adhere more closely to the lore of [The World]. At the same time though-- what the hell were they, to be able to consume monsters? He remains weary, stiff as a board as he approached. Player or not, it’d be rude to continue conversing at a distance.

“I can say without a doubt that none of that exists in this world. The closest we’d have to any temples are some of the buildings in the Root Towns, and possibly Dungeons.” He couldn’t believe he was actually thinking about this and how to help the other beyond what he already offered.

Balmung saves the other some face, turning to look at his menu as they poked at their-- what the hell was in that mouth?! Maybe it’d be best to try ignoring all this until they got back. At least combat isn’t allowed in the @.homes. That might be enough to keep Balmung temporarily safe, at least long enough to reason.

“I’m not sure how you’d warp with me outside of a party.” For a moment, he considers taking his sheathed sword for the other to grab, but that’d be a bit rude. Looking straight forward, he held his hand out, other hovering over the ‘Gate Out’ option on the menu.

#serphsup #{ Bal lowkey thinks this is a weird new event someone came up with but he's steeled for the worst }#{ yea they can hold hands to get there! he'd side eye him if Serph just up and grabbed his wings especially after watcing him consume }

“That’s okay,” he hummed, steadying himself now that Tomokazu could at least brace himself on the elevator handlebar. “I tend not to drink myself, either. Admittedly, I’m kind of a lightweight..I try not to drink stiffies all that often.” The man gave a faint breath, leaning against the elevator wall himself ( that sudden ascent wasn’t helping his head–he felt like he had vertigo ). “..Is it alright if I crash here for the night?.. I don’t wish to be a bother, but.. I don’t think I can eat anything else tonight without getting sick..”

“I think we know why I don’t do this every week.” He fished in his pockets for any sign of his keys; the card or the physical key would do tonight. Finally, it seems like Tomokazu brushed against the right set of something and pulled it out, examining the bronze key for a moment before smiling. “I’m alright with that. I can try to pull out the guest bed in the living room-- you can take my bed. It’s more comfortable, anyways.” By now, he didn’t even care if he cleaned his apartment or not; he felt the approaching reaper of sleep creeping up on him.

There was slight regret in deciding to stay in Breg Epona after it became a PK allowed space. Especially as he ran down the street making for the doors of the @HOME as quickly as possible with PKers on his heel.

“Shoot– shoot– Oh!”

And of course, he ran into another player and feeling bad, he slowed to make sure he hadn’t irked this player either.

“I’m sorry!”

balmung-of-the-azure-sky

There wasn’t much for Balmung to do this way of the Root Town. He came specifically for some much-needed healing items, but found himself keeping an eye out for rogue PKers-- who’d allow a Root Town to become a PVP zone?

As he was about to head back and change servers, he found himself nearly ran into by a rather hectic Blade Brandier. Rather than snapping or retorting rudely as if they were a PKer, Balmung found himself smiling.

“It’s alright. From the look of your run, you’re trying to get somewhere-- without those PKers chasing after.” He looked the other over, and ultimately decided it wouldn’t take too long to see how he could help. “If you’d like, I could accompany you to your destination.”

“Event admin, huh?” Orca asked, crossing his arms. “So what kind of crazy things have you doctored up for our unsuspecting userbase? Taking some inspiration from our old escapades, I hope.” he said with a laugh. His pride in Balmung was immense, but it was almost a shame to see his mighty partner growing bored.

“The usual monthly events. Very rarely am I in charge of distributing limited items,” Balmung sighed, wings sagging a little bit behind him. “I can’t say much about what I have planned, but I will admit there might be a bit of history in them.” He shivered, desperately trying to avoid the words ‘Grunty Racing’, given his own history with that particular event. “Regardless, what have you been up to?”

“Enjoying…?” Serph’s expression turned puzzled. “I don’t know. I’m not sure what ‘joy’ is supposed to feel like. I was just hungry…” Emotions were.. new to him. Although unbeknownst to him, he is an AI and, originally, wasn’t supposed to feel anything. Despite that, he started to develop emotions not long after becoming infected with the atma, aka demon, virus.

He took another bite of his ‘meal’ as he eyed the stranger’s sword. A weapon like that wouldn’t do much if he took on his demonic form… Thus, it held about as much threat to him as a mouse did to a cat. He decided it wasn’t worth keeping an eye on and instead remained silent, focusing on figuring out just how he was feeling.

“I think… at the moment, I am more worried than anything else.” He stated, having finally settled on what his current emotion was. “I got separated from my comrades and I don’t really know where I am currently.” There was a lot to be worried over but food had still ended up becoming the priority. Without it, he’d be nothing but a mindless demon by now.

Worried? While they were standing atop this ‘corpse’ and still eating it? Balmung didn’t know if he should be revolted or curious, but regardless of what he felt, he couldn’t take his eyes off the display before him. Out of everything he’s seen in the game so far, this probably sat up with some of the events of R:1 in terms of bizarre happenings. The fact that they were so nonchalant about it really put him on edge. It was easy enough to see why though-- one doesn’t just walk up and eat a monster.

“Well... where did your ‘comrades’ leave you at?” He was in disbelief that someone like this would have friends-- then again, Balmung himself had seen some rather strange friendships himself, even being part of some himself. As much as he’d like to keep moving, Balmung already found himself in a conversation, and based on the other’s admitting they were straight out lost, it’s not like he could ignore them.

More questions came up at the back of his mind. Is this a player? Or are they just an elaborate AI to the point they could ‘consume’ other, more basic AIs? It might be better to ignore this all in the end and just see what he could do to be part of what was going on. Another look around the field and he could only think of one thing. “When you, er, finish up there, I could take you back to my @.home to come up with a course of action.” And maybe save them a little face, along with an assortment of rumors on the BBS later.

[ Balmung admittedly has some weird feelings about Skeith. On one hand, Skeith singlehandedly put the fear of god in him, sending his closest friend into a coma On the other hand, after the second time around dealing with an AI extremely important to the game, Balmung wanted to really atone for how he used to see other AIs in the game, even vagrants. If anything, he wants to try to understand Skeith, but at the same time, knows that’s entirely impossible for someone like himself to get to the point of being casual around someone like Skeith. It’s genuine interest, but it’s more fear of approach than he’d like to admit. ]

[ It’s safe to say Kite’s right up there with Orca in terms of who Balmung is most comfortable with in the game. Kite’s resolve spoke to Balmung, even after dogging him for the past few months in-game and continuously finding different things to pick on him for. He said quite a few things other players would find unforgivable, especially in the situation they were in. And despite all that, Kite still puts trust in Balmung, and that was enough to crack the knight wide open and tie one of the strongest bonds he has, and it remains long into his later days of administration. ]

[ He doesn’t think too highly of Ovan or Corbenik for that matter. Balmung hasn’t had the time to get acquainted with both very well, and especially after learning that Ovan is the host to Corbenik. Surprisingly though, take that out of the picture and he gets along rather well, bonding over how long they’ve both played the game (as evident in the drinking thread). As Corbenik is the one that cost Balmung his consciousness right at the end of //Quarantine, he won’t get along too well. At all. In fact, he’d rather be as far away as possible from him. ]
