AOP 001 Jaden and Entropy

[10:24 PM] Wittlewick: You're up and about, checking on the ropes with two other crew mates.

[10:25 PM] Jaden: is trying to keep his focus but he keeps glancing over at Entropy

[10:25 PM] Entropy: is checking the ropes and letting Boredom fly for a bit if he wants to.

[10:26 PM] Wittlewick: One of the crewmates approaches you and for a second, you assume them to be a very hairy halfling or something...but they're not.  They're a chimp.

[10:26 PM] Jaden: ......Yes?

[10:27 PM] Wittlewick: Chimp: "...you gonna move or what?  I need to get up."

[10:27 PM] Entropy: Up where?

[10:27 PM] Jaden: "Oh,  OH! Sorry"  Moves aside

[10:28 PM] Entropy: moves as well.

[10:28 PM] Wittlewick: The chimp leaps up and begins climbing up the...rope...web...thing on a ship.  ...I know ship terms.

[10:30 PM] Entropy: So what’s up?

[10:30 PM] Jaden: ((Talking to Jaden?))

[10:30 PM] Entropy: ((Yes))

[10:31 PM] Jaden: ....Not sure yet.

[10:31 PM] Jaden: ......I'm sorry if i've been weird, ill be honest,  i have never met...a tiefling before and its thrown me off a bit

[10:32 PM] Entropy: You seem fairly knowledgeable about the war for someone who has never encountered a Tiefling.

[10:32 PM] Jaden: ........Knowing about something is different from seeing it yourself

[10:33 PM] Jaden: Listen i hate to ask this but.....you said you fought in the war?

[10:33 PM] Entropy: I did.

[10:34 PM] Jaden: looks very uncomfortable and asks "Which side?"

[10:35 PM] Entropy: Asking some big questions do I get to ask some from you in return?

[10:35 PM] Jaden: .....that is fair

[10:37 PM] Entropy: I think you have already guessed what side though.

[10:38 PM] Jaden: ((I kind of imagine the 2 of them aren't looking at each other, just working on the ropes as they talk btw))

[10:38 PM] Jaden: .....You have questions too?

[10:38 PM] Entropy: ((Same.))

[10:39 PM] Entropy: Why do you know so much about the war and why does it affect you so much?

[10:41 PM] Jaden: is quiet for a long time, just working on the ropes.  Finally after a few minutes he just says "I was 7 when the war ended"

[10:43 PM] Entropy: stays quiet for a bit.

[10:43 PM] Entropy: So you grew up during it.

[10:43 PM] Jaden: .....Yup

[10:44 PM] Jaden: ((how old does Entropy look?)

[10:46 PM] Entropy: ((Hard to tell maybe late 30’s to early 40’s))

[10:47 PM] Jaden: ((ok))

[10:47 PM] Entropy: I can tell you it is a lot more complicated than sides.

[10:47 PM] Jaden: stays quiet

[10:48 PM] Jaden: For now, how about we focus on this job?  You telling me this was a Empire ship brought up some negative feelings

[10:49 PM] Entropy: I can do that, I have to say it is fun to finally talk to people again who aren’t Boredom.

[10:49 PM] Jaden: How long have the 2 of you been together?

[10:50 PM] Wittlewick: Boredom: "Seventeen years."

[10:52 PM] Entropy: Seventeen years just me and Boredom stuck in a room.

[10:52 PM] Wittlewick: Boredom: "...roughly."

[10:52 PM] Jaden: looks at the thing around her neck "You were locked away?"

[10:52 PM] Wittlewick: ((For the record, I have no new content after this, so whenever you're done, you can wrap.  ))

[10:53 PM] Entropy: You are being much more helpful to others than you are to me Boredom.

[10:54 PM] Wittlewick: Boredom: "They don't whine to me all the time."

[10:56 PM] Entropy: In a way I was locked away, I needed protection from my decisions.

[10:56 PM] Jaden: Hmmm

[10:56 PM] Jaden: doesn't really have anything to say that

[10:59 PM] Entropy: This is much more free than I have ever been before, if you want to hate me for a past war well we can cross that flaming pit when we come to it.

[11:00 PM] Jaden: ......Fair enough.  For now this job takes priority

[11:00 PM] Jaden: They asked for Protection, and i can provide that

[11:01 PM] Entropy: I will also help, until my past catches up with me.  We can at least agree to be civil I am sure.

[11:02 PM] Jaden: turns at that, looking at you pretty much for the first time since this conversation  "Sure"  and holds out his hand to shake

[11:03 PM] Entropy: turns and shakes "I do so much prefer written contracts but that seems to be out moded on almost every other plane I have encountered."

[11:04 PM] Jaden: nods and then gets back to work

[11:04 PM] Jaden: ((thats all i got for now))

[11:04 PM] Entropy: also keeps working.
