If anyone has information about the Door that is not yet public knowledge, now would be a good time to share it.

Additionally, if you are capable of fending off the types of creatures that appear in the Colosseum and have at least some modicum of intellectual capacity... or at least the ability to read and not touch things you've been told not to, I'm looking for assistance. Contact me.

[Okay, she could start off with a smart retort but at the same time Marian can't help but ask:]

What exactly do you think anyone here would use for payment?

[Come to think of it, after seeing Malkus' attempt to pay for food... bartering around here seems like a way to end up with something you really don't want.]

[restinglichface]

[Lup shrugs, despite the fact this is over text.]

i dunno, depends on what you have to offer.

[a beat passes before she also sends,]

i do love shoes

[einselective]

I don't believe there are any extra shoes around here right now.

Either way, 'no' is the response to your initial question.

[restinglichface]

lame
but i'm in.

[payment not necessary. as lame as it sounds, the whole experience of being able to do something and actually help is probably payment enough. Hadriel doesn't offer much in the way of entertainment, so Lup will take what she can get.]

[einselective]

['lame'? Put this one in the 'questionable' pile then.]

Fine. Show up in the daytime at the Colosseum. I'll be there every day for... too long, I imagine.

[Because she has the distinct feeling that dedicated monster slayers are not exactly her type of people, by and large, and this wait for a new set of arrivals couple feel much much longer than however many more days are ahead.]

[restinglichface]

[That's pretty smart of her. Anything to do with either Lup or her brother is pretty damn questionable at best.]

vague as hell but it sure does make you sound mysterious. so we're just gonna be slaying some monsters for your amusement?

[einselective]

I'm not intending to be mysterious. I suppose it's fine. I'm not sure why anyone would be opposed to attempts to at least locate the Door.

[That doesn't entirely allay her fear that they DO exist though. Or people that would have alternative ideas of what to do with it if they even found it.]

Just making sure nothing gets damaged when the next round of monsters and new arrivals is dropped in the Colloseum. Myself included.

[restinglichface]

[Lup will probably be a hell of a lot more interested in the science of what Marian is doing once things get a little more in motion. When it comes to magic, she loves picking things apart and studying them until she turn it around for her own use. For now though, count her in on the killing brigade.]

right. keep the aggro off of you and the newbies. shouldn't be too hard. count me in, sis.

[einselective]

['Sis'? Really?] Dr. Tenebris. Or Marian is fine.

[Its not like that title means much here, or at home, anymore.]

[restinglichface]

[They were clearly going to get along just fine.]

hail and well met, doc. [that was not one of the two names she'd given Lup to use, but whatevs.] the name's lup taaco. no fancy title on my end, so just call me lup.

[einselective]

[She saw that 'doc' coming a mile away and was still unable to stop it. Sigh.]

I'm capable of reading the network identifiers. Just show up whenever you're free.

[restinglichface]

[it's a curse]

rad. catch you then, doc!
