Ducky: -nods- Okay, and Spike and Isolde, a few yards north of them, hear the yelling and hurry towards the source of it...though I can see Spike going with the intention to murder Viper and make it look like a robbery.... >.> I mean, a guy like him? who could pass up the opportunity? lol When his whole life is to make Viper's life a living hell, when every fiber in his body hates this man to the core, why not take the literal PERFECT opportunity to be rid of him for good? lol 7:31 PM
Cinderella: lol So he goes in there with the intention of killing Viper? Drawing his sword, charging him, all that? 7:32 PM
Ducky: More like he hears the yell and stops, and then gets this scary look on his face "I gonna kill him" and sprints off towards him and doesn't stop until he's sucker punched Viper and laid him out on his back! >:] 7:34 PM
Cinderella: lol I can see Isolde throwing herself in between them, putting her hands on his chest and pushing him back going "What the hell has gotten into you?!?" since she probably doesn't know that this man is the man who basically ruined Spike's life. And Spike and Viper would.... Well Viper would get back on his feet, pull a blade of some sort, and rush towards Spike, probably not even caring that Isolde is in the way. In his current state of mind, he'd probably just be like "If she's with him, then she can die too." 7:36 PM
Cinderella: Spike would...? 7:36 PM
Ducky: Push her out of the way and then start a wrestling match with Viper that would end promptly when he hears a gasped "William?" At which point I think he'd stop struggling altogether to look over to the source of the name he hasn't heard in years. 7:38 PM
Cinderella: And that's Lia, yes? 7:38 PM
Ducky: Yes. lol 7:39 PM
Cinderella: Okay lol. So... Isolde would probably be standing opposite of Lia, her arms folded and this annoyed look on her face like "Go ahead, kill each other, you moronic beasts!" and... Viper would take the opportunity of Spike's distraction to probably knee him in the groin ^_^;; 7:40 PM
Ducky: Oooooh. Poor Spike! lol Lia would run up to him and force herself between the two men. "Viper, stop it! This isn't you! William? William, are you alright?" And I think Spike would be both too shocked and too caught up in agonizing pain to speak. lol He'd just kneel there, kinda hoping Lia's not actually there. xP 7:44 PM
Cinderella: Isolde would observe it and get jealous lol. Step forward and just be like "Who's William?" and Viper would stand and take some deep breaths and point accusingly "HE is William. Who the hell are you?" to which she'd reply quickly "I could ask the two of you the same thing!" 7:46 PM
Ducky: Lia would stand again. "This is General Lord Richard Viper, owner of the very land you stand on. How could you not know him?" 7:48 PM
Cinderella: Isolde would just cross her arms again and be like "I'm sorry, I was a bit preoccupied watching him try to kill my Captain to pick out his name! -looks back to Viper- Pity you didn't succeed, by the way. Might have knocked some sense into his thick head!" 7:50 PM
Ducky: "I'm not above hitting insubordinate and disrespectful crew member's, Isolde." he'd say while standing. and Lia would gasp. "William! Did you just threaten her? How could you say such things to a woman?" And he'd have grabbed her arm as she was speaking. "I would appreciate your silence as well, woman." and shed jerk away "Stop this. You're being ridiculous!" 7:53 PM
Cinderella: Isolde would look at Lia and just be like "You should see him when he's drunk, although it's arguable that that's not much different from when he's sober." And at that point I think Viper would just be like "All of you shut UP!!! Dear God, woman, you're almost as annoying as Lia!!!" 7:54 PM
Ducky: And Lia would totally ignore him. "William, you've become a drunk?! Since when did you take up alcohol?" And Spike would just be like "Uuuugh! Would be two stop your chittering before someone else(emphasis) hears us?" 7:56 PM
Cinderella: Isolde would roll her eyes and obey, realizing that they ARE in the middle of Death Valley, and Viper would take a deep breath and grudgingly support Spike by casting Lia a dark, commanding look. 7:58 PM
Ducky: And Lia would lower her voice and turn back to Spike. "Are you alright?" "I'm fine, you ridiculous book worm. I've been hit by much worse. -glares at Viper-" and then Lia would wrap her arms around his neck, lifting herself off the ground (since he's taller than she) and he'd wrap an arm around her waist in order to balance out their weight so he's not falling over lol but also to hug her back. xP He still has a teeny tiny heart...way way WAY deep down. lol 8:01 PM
Cinderella: Isolde would see it and quickly look away, pretending that it doesn't feel like a knife was just stabbed in between her ribs, since this IS after Spike and her start their flirtation. Viper would clench his jaw tight. Not really sure what to do. He doesn't want Lia to feel loyalty to Spike, but he IS her brother-in-law and he knows how much they cared about each other while Nidia was alive. I don't think either of them would say anything... 8:03 PM
Ducky: No, this is right before they start their flirtation. lol xP 8:04 PM
Cinderella: I'm gonna go kill myself now, buy bye Ashley OTL 8:05 PM
Ducky: And...so Viper does want her on his side, even though he doesn't want her around? 8:05 PM
Ducky: What??? Kiki! 8:05 PM
Cinderella: I was exagerrating, I was exagerrating!!! Breath love lol 8:05 PM
Ducky: -breaths- 8:06 PM
Cinderella: Yes, he does. Remember, he likes her unconsciously. Deep deep deeeeeeeeeeeep down. But on the conscious level, he just doesn't want to see anyone become loyal to Spike, and he counts Lia as loyal to him, so he doesn't want her switching over to his side. 8:06 PM
Ducky: lol Okay right. And....would Isolde still look away? She wouldn't like, try to get her away or question why she's being so informal or something like that? lol 8:08 PM
Cinderella: She'd still look away, for a moment. You know, long enough to re-convince herself that it doesn't matter. Then she'd look at Viper, see the expression on his face, then speak. "Is there something you would like to share, Captain?" 8:09 PM
Ducky: He'd shoot her a dark look "Is there something YOU(emphasis) would like to share, Isolde?" 8:11 PM
Ducky: (brb gonna get something to eat) 8:11 PM
Cinderella: She'd glare right back at him and just be like "I'm not the one with a total stranger hanging all over me. One of your love affairs again?" 8:12 PM
Ducky: Lia would pull away enough to look at Spike. "Love affairs?" and spike would just roll his eyes "I don't need to explain myself to anyone, least of all you, Isolde. And you should know that better than anyone." 8:49 PM
Cinderella: "Then maybe HE'LL explain -looks at Viper and steps closer to him- You seem to know a great deal about my Captain. Would you be so kind as to share?" 8:50 PM
Ducky: Would Viper indulge her? Or let the both suffer? lol 8:51 PM
Cinderella: Eh... Viper would blink, sigh deeply, then lift both hands in the air and go "Can we all put away the fangs and talons for five minutes, please? -looks at Spike- What are you doing here? With some girl whose mouth is clearly too big for her own good?" 8:52 PM
Ducky: "I'm looking for an assassin of course. What are YOU doing here with....her?" lol 8:54 PM
Cinderella: They're looking for Will too...? 8:55 PM
Cinderella: Do I have that right or no? 8:55 PM
Ducky: lol They are just going through there to get to the dragon lol 8:56 PM
Cinderella: I faaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiil​!!!! Anyway. Viper would look at Lia and go "Our business is our own." 8:57 PM
Ducky: And Lia would step away and very enthusiastically explain. "Viper is going to kill the dragon to save the villagers so that they can rebuild their homes without fear!" 9:02 PM
Cinderella: Isolde would scoff and roll her eyes at her, and Viper would just give her this very very dark, reproachful look. "There was a reason I didn't want to tell them, Lia." 9:13 PM
Ducky: "They ought to know. It's quite noble, heroic even." 9:19 PM
Ducky: And Spike would start snickering. "Viper? Heroic? Ha!" 9:19 PM
Cinderella: Isolde would mutter under her breath (but loud enough for Spike to hear) "Oh yes, because you're so much better..." You know, still smarting from seeing him with Lia and how he threatened her and all. And Viper would just groan loudly, walk to Lia, and grab her arm. "Get yourself back to camp, NOW. One more word and I'm sending you straight back with a letter for Nora. You know her, she's the LAST person you want to be angry with you." 9:22 PM
Ducky: Lia would frown, wanting to speak otherwise but not wanting to fight with Viper. And Spike would send a sharp glare towards Isolde but not much more since he needs her lol 9:28 PM
Cinderella: Viper would push Lia away a little, like a mom telling her kid silently "Go, before I give you something to frown about!!" And Isolde at that, I think, would step forward and say "Wait." Then she'd walk to Lia, ignoring Viper, and go in a calmer voice "My question was never answered. Who are you?" 9:30 PM
Cinderella: She identifies with Lia after seeing how Viper dominates himself over her. 9:30 PM
Cinderella: Doesn't necessarily LIKE her.... but identifies with her. 9:30 PM
Ducky: Lia would stop, look back to Viper, then to Spike, then finally to Isolde. "Just an old friend, ma'am. Ophelia." 9:38 PM
Cinderella: Isolde would look her in the eyes and just go "Isolde. From what I've seen, we're equals, you and I. And if THEY aren't going to get along, there's no reason for us not to. -holds out hand for a shake- Yes?" 9:39 PM
Ducky: "Indeed -smiles and shakes hand-" 9:40 PM
Cinderella: Viper would step forward and push himself between them a little "Lia! The camp, now!" and Isolde would glare at him and go "Why don't you let her make up her own mind for once?" and Viper... hm... to that he'd probably turn around and grab Isolde's arm, jerk her in so that he's in her face, and go "I see he's been too leniant with you, woman. Push your luck anymore, and I gaurantee you, I will not be the same." 9:42 PM
Ducky: And I think it should be at this point that the ambush happens? lol 9:47 PM
Cinderella: (Aww, I wanted to see Spike be all sexy and protective xP) Sure =) So since Isolde and Lia aren't much use in combat, they'd probably just hit the deck and cover their heads and pray not to get hit, and.... Oh wait now.... Should one of htem get hit? >_> 9:48 PM
Ducky: Lia IS good in combat remember? She learned self defense after she and Nidia were attacked? lol Anyway, Spike wouldn't be all protective, because although he hates Viper, he shares the view that a woman should be more...submissive so he doesn't disagree that he's been lenient. He just...doesn't see it as a bad thing, if that makes sense. lol 9:52 PM
Cinderella: Okay, so ISOLDE hits the deck... I still think someone should get hit lol 9:52 PM
Ducky: Hmm...who? lol 9:53 PM
Cinderella: Well the most likely person would be Isolde, since she's just lying there like a sitting duck pretty much... 9:54 PM
Ducky: I thought her profile said she could hold her own with her wits. lol 9:54 PM
Ducky: Like...I don't disagree that she be the one to get hit. But would she just be sitting there? lol 9:55 PM
Cinderella: Where could she hide? They're in the middle of death valley. She's not going to run because that would mean leaving the others alone, but she's not going to stand there because that makes her a more noticable target. The best she can do is lie down, cover her head, and wait. 9:58 PM
Ducky: Okay. 10:00 PM
Ducky: Soooo......how does she get hurt? 10:00 PM
Cinderella: Arrow to her back... Perhaps the bandits have throwing stones and one hits her in the head, knocking her out and making her bleed... 10:01 PM
Ducky: I like the rock thing. ^_^ 10:02 PM
Cinderella: Me too. Hurts her sufficiently, but isn't qute lethal lol 10:02 PM
Ducky: Exactly. ^_^ 10:03 PM
Cinderella: So she takes a rock to the head... Spike, Viper, and Lia take care of the bandits, and... I'm not sure they'd notice her right away. The adrenaline would still be pumping too much, you know? Viper would probably glance at Lia, see she's fine, then look at Spike with this dark expression and almost indecipherably nod his head as if to thank him for working with him. 10:04 PM
Ducky: Lia would probably be the first to see Isolde go down I think. and then Spike, who'd go to her, kneel calmly (though he's extremely worried on the inside) and pick her up. "Lia, do you still remember all those books about healing? Can you help her?" "Um...I...don't know... -sees his well concealed desperation- ...but I'll try" 10:07 PM
Cinderella: Viper would stay back. He doesn't really have any personal interest in the matter. But as they start to move away to care for her he'd probably ask Lia "Is it bad, do you think?" 10:08 PM
Ducky: "I don't...think so...but I'l not a doctor. I really....have no idea" she'd answer him obviously feeling very helpless and scared and worried. 10:09 PM
Cinderella: "You're a smart woman. You're educated... You can help her, I'm sure." All said rather gruffly. It's a compliment, but he's not used to giving them out, so he'd try and be all tough about it lol 10:11 PM
Ducky: lol funny Viprt <333 10:12 PM
Ducky: Viper* 10:12 PM
Cinderella: Yeah, he's cute when he's awkward lol 10:12 PM
Cinderella: So I say Isolde would be out for maybe a day or two. Who should be there when she wakes? 10:13 PM
Ducky: Elan? They can't just sit and wait for her for two days to wake up. They have to keep moving. So if she's out for that long they'll probably have found Will and Elan by then and be back on the ship or close to being back. 10:14 PM
Cinderella: That works for me =) Isolde would wake up and just be like ".... Who are you?" Elan would smile all happy and go "My name's Elan. I'm so glad you're awake! The others will be relieved. I told them time and again that you weren't going to die, but they never believed me because if how much your head was bleeding. They'll be so glad to see you're awake, just like I said you would be! ^_^" "..... Did the Captain survive the ambush?" "Captain? Oh, you mean that tall angry man? Oh yes, he's fine." "Good. The crew can live without me, but if he dies they'll scatter." "... Oh... -giggles- I think you underestimate just how important you are to some people... -giggles ^_^ " 10:17 PM
Cinderella: Elan can be so.... airy lol 10:17 PM
Ducky: lol Nice foreshadowing though. <3 Isolde should recall this moment when Spike tells her the same thing in almost the exact same words lol 10:19 PM
Cinderella: Yeah, i kinda wanted Elan to have a small amount of psychic ability, so she can see how much Spike cares for Isolde and she can definitely tell that Isolde cares for Spike. Doesn't say anything out of respect for their own discretion, but she sees it plain as day lol And yeah, I was thinking that too. Adds another level to it, gives her more reason to be so confused by it. 10:20 PM
Ducky: I think if Elan has a tiny bit of psychic ability it should be small enough that she doesn't know about it. ^_^ 10:24 PM
Cinderella: Exactly what I had in mind =) 10:25 PM
Ducky: You know just like.....a really great intuition she's always had since she was little 10:25 PM
Cinderella: She's not even aware of it. It's there, but to her and everyone else it just seems like she's really good at following her.... intuition, yep, you beat me to it xD 10:25 PM
Ducky: lol Yay! 10:27 PM
Ducky: I mean...oops. sorry. xP 10:27 PM
Cinderella: xD lol So we have all that. Timeline it! AND all the stuff with Isolde and Spike and their flirtation... Btw, should that start like the night after she wakes up? Or give her a day to rest before the... ahem... excitement lol 10:29 PM
Ducky: Hmm....Let's say....she wakes up early morning one day, the read the ship that afternoon, excitement happens that night? 10:30 PM
Ducky: they reach* 10:30 PM
Cinderella: Works for me lol 10:31 PM
Cinderella: Timeline, timeline, timeline.....
