"Hmm, come to think of it, maybe that wasn't the arcane he smelled," Kawa mumbles. "I should change my clothes."
With that, Kawa walks away, leaving the half-empty bottle of shintanik behind. |

Zariki perks a brow at Moxley's assertion of his duty. Audicly clearing his throat, he says in a deliberately challenging tone, "And it's my job to assure that none of our guests step out of line." Finishing his drink, he adds, "Not sure if you've noticed, but you're sitting in a bar in a pocket dimension created by a demigoddess." He motions at Cai, "Also, you may want to stay your sword by the mention that you're also in the company of some of the best and brightest wizards in the entirety of the multiverse."
Refilling his drink, he says with a nod, "But don't let that affect your judgment." Taking another drink, he answers the query, "He's just another of my friends. He's one of my workshop buddies. We occasionally go out on a venture or two." Turning his attention to Kawa, he snarks, "So, you gave up the giant robot Pikachu schtick, eh?" while politely dismissing the drink offer. With a chuckle, he turns to Bel and quips, "Oh, Aren's not in trouble. I jiust haven't seen him in a while and figured he'd be fun to have around." Realizing that Zarik has taken the limelight, Cai pulls out a book and carefully opens it to begin reading. |

"I never said I needed help finding him, Bel." Zarik begins, "I just need his help with a project or... Twelve. What I need help with is gathering the raw materials to get my project back off the ground."
Leaning back on his stool, he adds, "I distinctly remember you offering to help." |

"Yes, yes, I know. If someone isn't a demigod, they're a sorcerer, wizard, worldbreaker, or the like. The pieces change, but the game stays the same."
Moxley goes back behind the bar to pour himself another drink, looking for something stronger than a root beer. "You have nothing to fear from me, I assure you I am fully commited to the highest principles of..." "Wait a second...what was that about a giant robot Pikachu?" |

"Humor me for a tick, Mox." Zarik says flatly, "Why would you threaten him with your duty? Demons and the like are actually fairly frequent patrons here. Why? They typically know that if they try anything beyond imp trickery, that they'll have hell to pay from the scrawny-ass defacto bouncer." And he motions to himself.
Noticeably lightening up, he says, "Yeah, at one point, Kawa was a giant Pikachu android." Pulling out his phone, he flips through his picture albums until he finds a pic of the old group from Kawa's bar. The pic has a few faces of the people present, as well as a few others that aren't. He points to the yellow head with brown hair poking out of the crowd, "That's what he used to look like." He even points out the two familiar faces standing next to Kawa in the pic, "Right there's me and Cai. Looking at this now, I hardly recognise myself. Amazing what a few years and discovering a couple powers'll do to ya." For reference, the picture shows Zarik as being distinctly a few years younger and without the facial hair. Cai is wearing a similar robe to what she wears now, but her right eye is noticeably not yellow, and her hair is down, as opposed to her ponytail. |

"I think I like you better without the beard."
Kawa had stealthily returned, now in fresh clothes -- a knee-length skirt and a big comfy sweater, plus the same cowboy hat -- and looks over Zarik's shoulder. "The yellow one's a handsome devil but it seems obvious that's not me." |

"Why? Because I know demons. And I know those that share their temperament. And I know that when they aren't kept in check, people die or are corrupted by the billions at minimum."
Moxley points defiantly at Zarik's picture. "These are the kind of moments I live to preserve. Apologies if you indeed have this place under control, but I've dealt with far, far worse to not take the risk." Moxley turns and looks at the cat, suddenly in new clothes, that was once a giant robot Pikachu. "Besides, demons are easy to figure out. It's the rest of the multiverse that never ceases to amaze me." He says, before taking a another big swig. |

"I'll drink to that," Kawa agrees, draining the left-behind bottle of chocolate milk since noone else dared. |

"I think it's knowing that the goddess is close enough to smite them herself that scares them into line here." Cai quips from behind her book, which she is nearing the end thereof.
Raising his glass, Zarik adds to Moxley's toast, "Definitely. Bouncing from plane to plane and dimension to dimension is still fascinating to me, even having been doing it for over a decade at this point." And then he drains his glass once again. Zissou raises a paw to concur, since he lacked a drink to join the toast. At length, he then suggests, "When shall we go fetch Arendal?" "Uh... The sooner the better, I'd say sooner rather than later. I want to take a group of four, including myself." Grabbing the bottle and pouring another drink, he is quick to add, "HOWEVER! I am requiring you and Bel to come with me, for reasons I'm sure you understand." Zissou solemnly nods, "It is only right that we assist." "So, that leaves either Kawa or Mox to come along for the ride. And I'll leave that between the two of you to decide." Zarik says, taking a gulp of his drink. Cai closes her book, raps on the counter to signify cutting Zarik off, and mentions, "Yeah, I should stay here to keep things in order." Leaning on the fourth wall a bit she says with a grin, "Besides, the quest would get boring with most of the team being from a single author." |

"I'm in!" Moxley exclaims without a moment's hesitation. "Truth be told, the travel here has left me a little bored. If it's all the same to you, I could go for a good mission." |

"How good of you to ask." Zarik laughs, reaching into his bag, he pulls out a few pickaxes and hatchets, "We're gonna go mining and logging! We may even fight our way through a dungeon or two for some coffers. Dunno, haven't really decided yet." He tosses one of the picks at Bel.
The pickaxe is quite ornate and is made out of a highly polished, gold-like metal collapsible head that is attached to a varnished handle that still smells of the camphor sealant used to preserve it. The hatchets seem to be made from the same materials and are equally fancy. A close inspection of the tools would indicate that they are wrought from tempered mythrite with Zarik's insignia engraved on them. Taking note of Moxley's eagerness to join, Zarik says, "Then that settles it. Take a bit to get your supplies in order, and we'll make our way to Idyllshire probably within the hour." |

"Not in. I'm not much for wild and wacky adventures," Kawa declares. |

"Maybe one or two of the items I need. I only have a rough idea so far of what I'm looking for. Aren'll help me get the exact numbers, so tracking him down will be top priority."
Reaching into his pocket, he pulls out a small blue stone with a shield insignia on it and focuses on it for a moment. Suddenly, a flash envelops the room. When the light fades, Zarik appears to be in a different outfit. He is now wearing a white long sleeve button down shirt with the top few buttons undone with a tan vest over it, black dragon skin leather pants and matching boots. The ensemble topped with a black trilby with an ornamental red cloth on it. His sword and shield appear to be fashioned out of beetle shells and wings, in their resting state, they give off a faint blue light. "Whelp, I'm set. time to open the portal." Zarik states and then thrusts his arm out and begins to focus. A stream of faint light emits from his hand as a portal slowly begins to open in the vicinity of about ten feet in front of him. "I have to stay here to channel the aether to keep this open. Once you guys are through, I'll be joining you on the other side!" (OoC: after your exit here, please make your way to the thread at >>95157) |

"Alright then, let's get this expedition under way!"
What appears to be liquid metal swirls in Moxley's hand for a moment, and then suddenly materializes into the shape of a pickaxe. Though it lacks the ornate design of Zarik's , the head of the pickaxe gleams in the light. The proper tool now equipped, Moxley steps into the portal expecting the others to follow close behind. |

"And with them out the way..." Kawa sits down at the nearest empty table and whips out a large-ish laptop computer, boxy and black with wooden detailing. "...I can get some work of my own done." |
