[ Some half-serious banter from the IRC chat, that I found amusing enough to repost. ]
[Alderic] Well, looks like it's just you and me now, Ashya!
[Ashya] yes! [Ashya] let me corrupt you :)
[Alderic] Corrupt me? Why, that sounds like a very /blood mage/-y thing to say.
[Ashya] hahahah [Ashya] never, I assure you! <3 [Ashya] dont you think bethen needs a real MAN to protect her, as an example?
[Alderic] ....................................... I... I'm-- not sure I care for what you're implying.
[Ashya] aww dont run away now [Ashya] we've all seen how you LOOK at her
[Alderic] :| Bethen is a very good /friend/.
[Ashya] yeeeeeees of course she is! [Ashya] careful, Aurin might get there first [Ashya] he's not going to mind :)
[Alderic] No, he won't, and that's the terrible thing. [Alderic] Bethen's private, er, affairs are no concern of mine, but. But Templars and Mages aren't allowed to /consort/.
[Ashya] but they still do! [Ashya] we're people too, you know -.-
[Alderic] They-- No, they don't. Who? No self-respecting Templar would-- Well, aside from Aurin, but he's a special case. ................... How /old/ are you again? :| You should hardly know about... that business.
[Ashya] :| [Ashya] im....a full mage! [Ashya] thats old enough [Ashya] *glare*
[Alderic] ... [Alderic] :| [Alderic] I am not going to continue having this discussion with you, nevertheless.
[Ashya] even your priestesses aren't so holy...
[Alderic] That is the kindest thing you have ever said to me.
[Ashya] ...it is?
[Alderic] I am flattered. Thank you. * Alderic gives a big smile.
