Wyvern Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 Wyvern skitters over billowing stretches of Astral space, feeling the vibrations of the silent music in his soul as the stars glow in and out of focus. The overgrown lizard tucks a small rectangular package under his claws as he makes his way into an illusionary version of the Astral Chaos Fortress plane, which has been decked out like a classic rock museum in the current setting. Wyvern passes by several broken guitars and dented cymbals before coming across what appears to be a large portrait of Pink Floyd. He pauses as he notices that David Gilmour seems to have a rainbow-colored toupée at the front of the pic, and raises a brow as he finds that the dark "moon" in the background ressembles a large rubber egg. "Zool...?" Wyvern squints in disbelief, slowly registering the current look of Zool's canvas in his almost dragonic nogin. "Issssat really you?" "Yep." Zool adjusts his colorful toupée and glances back at the huge egg that graces the background of his image. "Eh, it could be worse... the Bon Jovi portrait is a couple of exhibits down, at least." Wyvern snickers, then pulls the rectangular package from under his armpit. "I jussst wanted to wish ya a Happy Birthday and give you this." Wyvern checks for any signs of watercolor, then moves a bit closer to Zool's portrait. "Hope ya like it." Wyvern unwraps the gift in front of Zool to reveal a portrait of an unwrapped rectangular gift. "This way, you'll never feel like you finished unwrapping everything, and it'll be as if another B-day had never passed. Have a great one buddy!" ;-)
Sweetcherrie Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 The item that Stoomp was going to bid on was not on bid yet, and he had wandered away from the auction stand. The people were weirdly dressed around him, and somehow the world seems to be dressed in dead animals, painted black. It made him feel a bit queasy, and at the same time he wanted to huggle everybody since they all smelled so nice. He wondered into what looked mostly like a castle, and again saw the lizard, but this time he was sure it was a twin brother. The lizard was decked in leather and chains, KISS striped horns, boots, and other attributes that he was sure he hadn’t seen the last time he saw the Elder. He bounced over, and gloomped to the lizard, “Eiiiyooo!” Then the dwarf saw the gifts. “Oooh, izze giftday again?” He ducked into his bagpack and searched around if he still had anything useful in there. He wondered when it would go empty, but so far it had kept giving him what he needed. Stoomp felt around with his hand, and yelped as something bit in his hand. He pulled back, and pulled out a snake with it. The creature was about the same length as the dwarf’s arm, and had bitten itself stuck in Stoomp’s thumb. Now it was wiggling happily with its tail, and curled itself around Wyvern’s neck. “Snakey likes you mista.” Stoomp cooed, “Izze now your snakey, to go with the black skin.” He pointed at the leather with this. Then he gave the lizard another huggle and walked on again. Not realizing that he had totally given the gift to the wrong person. OOC: Happy Birthday Zool
The Portrait of Zool Posted June 29, 2006 Report Posted June 29, 2006 "Zool... Issssat really you?" The portrait formerly known as Zool was awakened from his rock & roll fantasy by the distantly familiar voice and sooty breath of the almost dragonic lizard. Though he was more inclined to indulge in exotic and arcane depictions of narcissistically self-absorbed rock supergods than just hanging around the halls of the Pen these days, he was glad to see him. It was, actually, kind of nice. And he was touched. "A gift... for me? You remembered!" Zool squealed with delight (in rock supergod fashion) on having the gift unwrapped for him and finding such a superlative, err... gift. "You shouldn't have!" Whipping out his looking glass tie, he held it up to catch the reflection of the tiny portrait, which he then peeled out of the mirror. Now holding the unwrapped rectangular gift in his sequin gloved hand, he quickly tore the unwrapping off. Inside was an unwrapped rectangular gift. He un-unwrapped it as well, only to find another unwrapped rectangular gift. "Well, you certainly have given the gift that keeps on giving," said Zool intently, shredded unwrapping paper once again flying. "Ack!" said Wyvern, as unseen by Zool he fell to the floor wrapped up by a huge snake... * Thank you all!
Gyrfalcon Posted June 29, 2006 Report Posted June 29, 2006 Happy Birthday, Zool... sorry I was late with it. ; Hope your Birthday was a good one!
