Somewhere in the folds between dimensions, there is a small building in the middle of a tranquil field. There isn't much to this place, yet there's an air of mystery surrounding it. Inside, everything seems tossed about and is in total disarray.
Behind the bar, from beneath a pile of jars, bottles, cans, dust, and many other things one might find in their kitchen, Caionna lays on the floor in somewhat of a daze. Getting up, she dusts herself off and wonders aloud to herself, "What in the multiverse just happened?" Looking around, she adds, "This place is a mess... Better get things cleaned up before someone shows up for a visit." Wasting no time, she magics up a few brooms and such to expedite the cleanup process. Within minutes, the quaint little shack is made presentable once again. As a finishing touch, the woman walks over to a small sign that reads Si tu id aeficas, ei venient. Ager somnia. With a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth, she says quietly, "If you build it, they will come." and walks over to the window and turns the sign, once again, to open. |

And come they did.
Natalie--showing off in her dragonform as usual--is the first to arrive, gliding down from the sky and landing out front with a soft thump. She eagerly enters, excited to meet up with her friends... but stops just inside the door as she realizes she's having a severe case of déjà vu. "Huh? Didn't I just... didn't I just do this yesterday?" she asks herself as she nervously fingers her recently acquired black studded-leather collar. She tugs briefly on the large heart-shaped diamond hanging from the front for a moment before giving up on trying to figure out what happened. "...Huh. Guess I'm the first one here, then," she muses, realizing the place seems rather empty. Except for Caionna, of course. |

Cynthia suddenly appears behind Caionna, and gives her and Natalie a friendly nod as she walks over to the bar, leaving the distinct smell of ozone where she appeared. |

Noticing her friends appearing, she makes a blanket welcome to them, "Hi, girls, welcome back...?" There's a perplexed intonation to the end of her greeting, as if she's unsure if she should have said it like that.
Responding to Natalie, she says, "Yep. Looks like it." The entry scent for Cynthia then hits her nose, and she flinches as if she was going to sneeze, but doesn't. Regaining her composure, she greets the robotic girl, "Hey, Cynth, where's Kawa? Aren't you two usually attached at the... Erm..." After hesitating a bit, she adds awkwardly, "Hip?" Turning to Leo, she responds, "Oh... This place? The full story would take far too long to explain." Realizing she forgot to introduce herself, she blushes, then bows and says, "My name is Caionna Hoir, the proprietress." |

"Danna has things to do", Cynthia explains. "I don't really understand about half of what he said, but it was something about cosmic retcons and headaches. When the scanners indicated the new tavern location, I thought I'd 'port down for the usual tasks. I'm sure danna'll be around eventually." |

Natalie stretches her wings for a moment. "Cosmic retcons is right... I really feel like I just came here yesterday," she says offhandedly. "In fact, I think... yeah, there is something different about you, Caionna. Can't put my finger on quite what, though... it's been what, two years? Hard to remember." |

Hearing that Kawa was busy disheartened Caionna somewhat, but she understood and nodded to Cynthia.
Trying to think about what Natalie said, she dons a thoughtful ex Turning her attention to Leo, she says, "Interrupting? What are you interrupting?" Smiling, she notices how hungry the boy is and waves her hand. Suddenly, a bread roll flies through the air from the kitchen vicinity that collides with Leo's head with a small paff sound, and lands softly on his shoulder as if by magic. A muffled cackling sound can be heard from where the bread flew from. Stifling laughter, Caionna says, "You'll have to excuse the help... They're a tad on the crazy side." A sardonic smile crosses her lips as she says in a, nigh undetectably joking, dark voice, "As for money..." Her ex |

Natalie sighs, wings drooping a bit. "All I know is I spent about a year and a half dealing with a succubus who wanted to eliminate the need to feed on souls..."
She glances around for a moment, taking in the new presences. Then she turns her attention back to Caionna... and a look of amused understanding crosses her face. "Aha! That's what it is, you've got more potential! The power's practically radiating off of you. And--are those... wings?" she adds, finally noticing that not-so-minor detail. |

"Do I look like a natural-born dragon to you, Bel?" Natalie snorts. "This is just a combat-oriented alternate form I developed. I tend to subconsciously block out power auras anyway." |

A crash came from outside the tavern, followed by a loud, joyous yell. A scraping sound was heard as outside, dirt was displaced from its current state, and a sled traveled down the hillside. The door flung open as a Cycloptic man wearing a hawaiian shirt interjected, " I need a bit of help out here. There's some baddies after my product. I'll buy everyone rounds if you can help me out." He left the door open, running after a sled covered in barrels, and a wave of creatures pouring after it in the distance. He jumped up, aiming toward the wave, and crashed down close to it. A few were knocked down in the ensuing shockwave. ____________________ board2: board harder|KAFUKA - Got post?|Opera - Try it today!

In seconds, Cynthia pulls a rifle out from the front of her shirt that shouldn't realistically fit there, jumps over the counter and bounds out the door.
She nods at the cyclops in greeting, slides back a dial on the side of her weapon, and mows down the baddies with what seems to be a low-power energy beam. "Stun setting", Cynthia clarifies. |

"Oh damn it to hell. Isn't he the old bartender that wasn't Kawa?" Natalie mutters. "Why the hell would a bunch of creeps be after his booze? Hell, for that matter, why are they even here?"
Wasting no further time on the frivolities, Natalie simply watches the show for a moment. Surely her help wouldn't be needed for such cut-rate lackeys... That attitude only held for about three seconds. Didn't he just offer drinks? A nice quality mild inebriation would help her stop worrying about the cosmic implications of the shared déjà vu. Two seconds later, Natalie was already in flight. She quickly lands directly on one of the creeps and zaps a few others with a low-power chain lightning, ruining their motor ability. "I've been wanting to zap the shit out of something for years now!" she chirps happily. |

Seeing Bel enter, she waves cheerfully, saying, "Hi, Bel, how've you been?" she stops to contemplate his question, then answers, "I'm not sure... All I remember is waking up from a total blackout a few moments before you all started showing up... Everything's a bit blurry." Pausing a moment to think about what Natalie was talking about, then she realizes what it is. Flapping her wings slightly, she says, "Yeah, they're wings... Apparently there's dragon in my lineage, and when I disappeared those years ago, I was actually called back to the village I was born in by my dragon ancestors and they triggered something inside me that awakened my suppressed ancestral form. Along with it came a large boost to my magical prowess and the ability to transform freely between human and dragon, and anything in between." Sighing, she continues, "From there, everything went to hell in a hand basket, which is why I told our young friend here," she motions to Leo, "that where we are, and how it came to be is a very long story." A thoughtful ex When Gray appeared, it takes her a few moments to realize that the man had just materialized from seemingly nowhere. The phenomenon wouldn't have surprised her, but she was concentrating so hard, it caught her slightly off guard. Gathering her wits, she replies to the mysterious newcomer, "You would be correct, this is a tavern." Walking to the bar, she pulls a tall glass off of the shelf and fills it with clean tap water. Handing it to Gray, she continues, "As for where you are... The best way to describe this world is... Sort of like being at every single point of existence, while simultaneously being nowhere at all." Unsure of how confusing that description was, she hastily adds, "You see, that's because we're in a fold between the planes of the multiverse. We're more or less connected to everywhere and nothing in a pocket of sorts. I created this, shall I say, void to act as a haven."

((Chopped liver, apply directly to the demigoddess-wannabe's forehead.
Looks like Natalie's stuck until CyC remembers that he's most of the reason things got held up the last board incarnation and actually remembers to keep shit going this time. And Billy sure isn't going to find this place on his own... Sigh. I shouldn't have had her go off on that tangent.)) ((E: Oh, here we go. This might work.)) Natalie quickly reappears in the tavern entrance, earfrills drooping slightly from her previous rude exit. What use was full potential on those useless goons? A decoy dragoness could fight them off no problem. In fact, that's exactly what she had done. She'd left a low-potential clone of herself in charge of securing the drink. "Sorry about that. Sometimes I forget I can just sit back and not sandblast the soup cracker," Natalie says. "Anyway, I... hmm. I don't know," she responds to Caionna's timeline contemplation. "I'm not good with weird time shit... Kawa would know exactly what went on... but... preliminary examinations suggest... yeah, no, I've got nothing." She sighs, her frills drooping a little more. She thought she'd had an idea, but it wouldn't have made sense... |
