Invasion of the Anzens

Who: Some Anzens & you
When: July 29
Where: Dorms
What: just friendly people being good neighbors
Warnings: N/A

[ Knock knock, open up, there is some number of Anzens at your door.

A pretty lady in sky blue smiles and waves. ]

Good evening. Hopefully this isn't a bad time? Enough time has passed that we figured it was a good idea to check in and make proper introductions.

You'll have to forgive the lack of housewarming gift. We're a bit shorthanded at the moment, which I'm sure you can relate to.


[ From behind her peers a perfectly average guy with tousled hair dressed in sky blue slacks. He gives a friendly wave! ]

We did think about it, though.

No, dude? I'm still fuckin' alive.
ordimame: (221)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-07-30 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Well.

Yeah. . .?

[Puck was not implying he should be otherwise??]
inexorableiron: (Stand and fight.)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-30 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
So I can still get sick.

[why does he almost sound condescending]
ordimame: (279)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-07-30 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
[. . .]

. . . I see!!

That's not what I meant when I said you were immune to colds, but-- nevermind.

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-30 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
Uh... alright? You guys're from uh...

[Hamn did you ask about ANY dorm names]

... another group, visitin'?
ordimame: (78)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-07-30 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
The light blue class. Anzen. . . ?

[is that their official class name. . . ? he doesn't know]

Come to think of it, I don't know the name of your class.
inexorableiron: (Default)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-30 02:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[He is just nodding along now, yes good, definitely good sense here]

The color's real obvious enough, dude, but yeah. That one!

The fuckin' book says Kai-un, so that's that. Weird names all around.
ordimame: (z175)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-07-30 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[huh. . .]

They're not that strange. . . at least not to me. [since they are in his native language] Yours means general good fortune.
inexorableiron: (orange + 75 = Canada)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-30 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
What fuckin' language is that, dude? Like, good luck good fortune or like, happy life good fortune?
ordimame: (221)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-07-30 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
It's Japanese. . .

[. . . though he supposes, based on the last language he heard this guy speak, that he has never heard of such a country]

And it's general good fortune. So. . . whatever kind of luck you want it to be?
inexorableiron: (perhaps a giant wooden badger?)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-30 06:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Never heard of it.

[Orc is very different]

The luck we need, huh? Well fuck, that'd be pretty nice.
ordimame: (181)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-07-30 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[just sighs! and quickly moves on]

Maybe. . . if luck actually worked that way. But if it did, then you wouldn't be here in the first place, righ?
inexorableiron: (I don't get it.)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-30 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
You make a great fucking point, dude!
ordimame: (73)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-07-31 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
Of course I do!

[puffs up a bit proudly]

Has anyone talked to you about class "curses" yet?
inexorableiron: (orange + 75 = Canada)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-07-31 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)
There's what now?
ordimame: (78)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-08-01 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
I'll take that as a no.

[it's fine, there's no judgment here, since Puck didn't pick up on the "curses" himself, either]

. . . I've heard that some members of the other classes are affected by. "Afflictions," I guess? Compulsions that have them doing things they wouldn't normally do. They're theorizing that every class has one of these "afflictions," and they're based around the blessings of our class names.

. . . have you felt anything out of the ordinary lately?
inexorableiron: (Stand and fight.)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-08-01 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
No shit that's a no. What the actual fuck, man? We get to be cursed too?

[he does pause and roll his left shoulder, eyeing the flower on his bicep]

You and those other class dudes thinkin' this is what's branded on us? This fukin' curse? I dunno shit about these names, but I know this is some potent ass magic. I've been pretty fuckin' normal otherwise.

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-08-01 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
[noticing that! he lifts his hand to show Magus the back; the blue outline of a catchfly is etched cutely onto his skin there]

Honestly. . . ? I don't know. If you haven't noticed, supernatural things aren't exactly. . . my area of expertise.
inexorableiron: (Stand and fight.)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-08-01 12:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Cutely! All of these tattoos are cute]

Yeah, and? I know plenty of dudes like that even where I'm from, dude. Not everybody does fuckin' magic. I do, and I know this shit is magic, but who the fuck knows what kind?

Does seem like everybody got a plant though. And that just reeks of classic druid nature bullshit.
ordimame: (154)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-08-01 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[THEY ARE ALL VERY CUTE]

"Druid nature bullshit". . . [what does that even MEAN] . . . I'd trust your opinion on that way more than I'd trust mine.
inexorableiron: (orange + 75 = Canada)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-08-01 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sometimes you anger multiple circles of druids and they all send assassins after you it is FINE]

I miss my books, dude.
ordimame: (168)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-08-02 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[THAT DOESN'T SOUND FINE??]

I. . . don't know what to do about that!

[HE CAN'T FIND YOUR BOOKS FOR YOU, BUDDY]

But I hope you get them back eventually.
inexorableiron: (Stand and fight.)

[personal profile] inexorableiron 2025-08-03 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Didn't Die in The Giant Acid Pool merit badge earner right here]

Yeah, yeah. I know. Thanks, though.
ordimame: (123)

[personal profile] ordimame 2025-08-04 01:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[he isn't sure he has done anything to warrant a "thanks," but hey! he'll take it]

Any time.

. . . got any other grievances you need to air?
