[16:59] <NewKervoskia> Good evening folks and welcome to the third edition of Nightline NationStates, your most trusted source for scandal, rumors, and spin. Owned and operated by The Pacific Post- remember,if we didn't write, it's an outright lie! Tonight's guests include Thyatira of the Order of the Gryphons, TseMoana of Equilism and later Candidate Limitless Events. [16:59] <Dalimbar> Oh sure, don't include me now... [16:59] <Dalimbar> I'll get my agent, you bastard! [16:59] <NewKervoskia> And I'd like you all to welcome first my new co-host. [17:00] <Dalimbar> Um... yeah, that's right. [17:00] <NewKervoskia> Dali "The Tyrant" Jones. [17:00] * TseMoana wonders how she became a guest [17:00] <Dalimbar> We got you at the last minute. [17:00] * TseMoana goes along for the ride, fun [17:00] * Dalimbar cheers [17:00] * Khab applauds loudly, nearly spilling her popcorn. [17:01] <Dalimbar> Little excited over there, eh? [17:01] <NewKervoskia> Here's a nice, chair for you. [17:01] <NewKervoskia> And a nicer one for me. [17:01] * Khab nod-nods. [17:02] <NewKervoskia> You've probably heard of our first guest. His shadow organization has funnled money to nearly every crime family in the game. Give a round of applause to Thyatira! [17:02] <Thyatira> Good evening.[17:02] <Dalimbar> The man of the hour himself. [17:02] * Thyatira looks at NewKerv's nicer chair [17:03] * Khab jumps out of her seat and claps wildly, sending popcorn sailing in every direction! [17:03] <Dalimbar> And a tyrant regime or two... *chuckles* [17:03] <Thyatira> shadow organization? [17:04] <Thyatira> that's the first time I've heard that [17:04] * NewKervoskia pushes forward a rather tall stool [17:04] <Thyatira> lol [17:04] <NewKervoskia> Siy down, Don Thyatirazolla. [17:04] <Thyatira> your chair's nicer than mine [17:04] * Thyatira sits [17:05] <Thyatira> what's new in Kervoskia? [17:05] <Dalimbar> He paid for that out of his own pocket. [17:05] <NewKervoskia> Oh, the usual. Folderol frivolity and drug induced dementia. [17:06] <NewKervoskia> Tell us how you entered into racketeering. [17:06] <Thyatira> well, you see it's like this... [17:06] <Thyatira> "never tell anyone outside The Family your business" [17:07] <Dalimbar> Even the cross-dressing step sister? [17:07] <Thyatira> but it's funny you should mention drug induced dementia [17:08] <Thyatira> but racketeering is less profitable than arms dealing, of course [17:08] <NewKervoskia> Oh, we all know that truth. [17:08] <Thyatira> Witness the animals for kagranite deal [17:09] <NewKervoskia> Yes, you made nearly 150,000 Francos off of that deal. [17:10] <Thyatira> yes, but the francos to Thyatiran Talents exchange rate ate up most of that profit [17:10] <NewKervoskia> Ouch. [17:10] <Thyatira> yes, indeed [17:11] <Thyatira> the Talent is weak [17:11] <Dalimbar> Ever considered turning your nation into a tax haven? [17:11] <Thyatira> actually, no, Dal [17:11] <Thyatira> care to take on that work? [17:11] <Thyatira> perhaps as Undersecretary of Tax Shelters? [17:11] <Dalimbar> Uh... I'm still hiding from TNP/ADN ninjas, remember?[17:11] <Thyatira> where better to hide than in a shelter? [17:12] <Dalimbar> For the homeless, eh [17:12] <NewKervoskia> So this lead to your front organization? Originally called The Habadashers. [17:12] <Thyatira> yes, NewKerv [17:12] <Thyatira> can I call you Curve? [17:12] <NewKervoskia> You may. [17:13] <Thyatira> The Pacific throws you a Curve [17:13] <Thyatira> [17:14] * TseMoana ducks the curve [17:14] <Thyatira> well, we of the Habadasher Grognardery prefer not to think of it as a front organization [17:14] <Dalimbar> What would you call it? [17:15] <Dalimbar> Artistic collective? [17:15] <Thyatira> it's been referred to as a council of vampires, actually [17:15] <Thyatira> never entering in where it hasn't been invited [17:15] <Thyatira> you know[17:15] <Dalimbar> This obviously explains your monopoly on the blood trade. [17:16] <NewKervoskia> My slip of paper says here since creation your organization has made nearly 400 million Francos. [17:16] <Thyatira> not a lot of people understand that there's money in blood [17:16] <Dalimbar> Or blood in money? [17:17] <Thyatira> I think it works both ways, Dal [17:17] <Thyatira> but yes, I find blood-banking to be quite lucrative [17:17] <NewKervoskia> What lead to the change in name? [17:17] <Thyatira> simple advertising [17:18] <Thyatira> AIDA [17:18] <Thyatira> Attention Interest Desire Action [17:18] <TseMoana> Of course, Equilism is a huge customer, what with all the amounts of bloodwine we consume... [17:18] <Thyatira> yes, Equilism is very important to us [17:18] <TseMoana> it's cheaper to get it from Thy than to import from Q'onoS [17:18] <Thyatira> Q'onoS rox, btw [17:18] <TseMoana> interstellar rates are going through the roof [17:19] <TseMoana> Agreed with the rocking of Q'onoS [17:19] <NewKervoskia> We thank you for your time, Thy, but please enjoy your seat. [17:19] <Dalimbar> It seems Tse wants to be our guest again? [17:19] <TseMoana> yes of course, being your guest is an honour [17:20] <Dalimbar> Ah, thank you dear [17:20] <TseMoana> I was just surprised at suddenly being announced as guest while I wasn't mentioned before [17:20] * Dalimbar gets one of my men-slaves to grab a couch for you. [17:21] <NewKervoskia> Tse, you brought us some pictures of your NS sons and daughters. [17:21] <TseMoana> Oh yes, look [17:21] <NewKervoskia> What are their names? [17:21] * TseMoana pull sout huge flipbook [17:22] <TseMoana> This is Equility, my first husband with his son Restored Othalla [17:22] <TseMoana> our son, I should say [17:22] <NewKervoskia> Oh, good lord what is that thing?!! [17:22] <NewKervoskia> It's as if he fell down the ugly tree and hit every branch. [17:22] * Dalimbar faints [17:22] * TseMoana makes apologetic gesture [17:22] <TseMoana> sorry about that, sometimes I forget the effect his appearance has on others [17:22] * Khab gasps! [17:23] <Dalimbar> You said "first husband". Now, what happened to that relationship? [17:23] * TseMoana quickly takes other picture [17:23] * Thyatira thinks to self: looks like the poor thing ran blindfolded through the ugly forest [17:23] <TseMoana> hold your horses Dali [17:23] * Dalimbar goes to the stable, and holds my horses. [17:23] <TseMoana> these are our other kids: Sub-Actuality, Adyndril, Notherfork and Moo [17:24] <Korinn> Ahh the Equilism family tree [17:24] <NewKervoskia> Mooey? [17:24] <Dalimbar> Moo?! [17:24] <Korinn> I've seen that [17:24] <TseMoana> although, technically, Moo is the son of my brothers Noot and Chauce but Equility and I raised him as our own [17:24] <Dalimbar> The guy I was supposed to get married to? [17:24] <TseMoana> I'm so proud my boy is now emperor [17:24] * TseMoana sniffles [17:24] <Dalimbar> Tell us about his childhood. [17:24] * Khab passes Tse a tissue. [17:25] <TseMoana> Thanks Khab [17:25] <TseMoana> Moo was quite the active child, always getting himself into trouble, he doesn't like authority figures [17:25] <TseMoana> But he cleaned up his act after Equility left [17:26] <Dalimbar> Was Equility ever... abusive to him? [17:26] <TseMoana> I never quite found out what happened to my dear husband but it did clear the way for me to meet K'Lach [17:26] <TseMoana> well, not that I personally saw [17:26] <TseMoana> I only know that Equility disappeared without leaving a note and Moo became a much more agreeable kid after [17:27] <TseMoana> When I hooked up with K'Lach he really took to him [17:27] <Korinn> Ppl in Equilism get married alot <_< [17:27] <TseMoana> yes, we do [17:27] <TseMoana> it's a favourite pastime of ours [17:27] <Korinn> Isn't Nai your Daughter?[17:28] <TseMoana> Nai is my granddaughter [17:28] <Korinn> Ahh [17:28] <TseMoana> by Sub-Actuality and Astarial [17:30] <Dalimbar> How do you feel about her being a Guru, especially to one former feeder Tyrant? [17:30] <Dalimbar> Her being your granddaughter. [17:30] <TseMoana> I'm very pleased with how she grew up, very proud [17:31] <TseMoana> I think she will have a good influence [17:32] <Dalimbar> And your thoughts as to how she became a guru? [17:34] <TseMoana> That process is mostly a mystery to me to, she wasn't allowed to say much about it, but from what she did say, it was a very weird experience [17:34] <TseMoana> something with pink elephants and lemonade [17:34] <Dalimbar> I heard it was drugs. [17:34] <Dalimbar> From Thy's organization. [17:35] <TseMoana> which would nicely explain the pink elephants [17:35] <Dalimbar> Scandal! [17:35] <TseMoana> however, I think her lemonade was switched with one of Agamemnon's potions [17:35] <NewKervoskia> Speaking of potions. [17:35] * Dalimbar gasps [17:35] <NewKervoskia> A word from our sponsor. [17:36] <Agamemnon> I swear I didn't switch Naivetry's drink with a potion. [17:36] <Agamemnon> I mean what? [17:36] <Dalimbar> uh huh... [17:37] <NewKervoskia> Pot not doing it for you? Dropping 'E' a bore? Then try Agamemnon's Ole' Time Greek Potion. You'll be as high as a Olympus before you can say 'Speak, O, Muse!' [17:37] <TseMoana> See! [17:37] * TseMoana points [17:37] <TseMoana> I told ya [17:37] <Agamemnon> I didn't do anything! [17:38] <Agamemnon> I've been framed! [17:38] <Dalimbar> It was the potion that did it. [17:38] <NewKervoskia> Ag, please step onto the stage. [17:38] <NewKervoskia> Tell us your side. [17:38] * Agamemnon steps up [17:39] * Geo_X pokes Agamemnon [17:39] <Agamemnon> I am simply misunderstood! [17:40] <Dalimbar> What happened, then? [17:41] <Agamemnon> So what if I read a few books here and there, I haven't actually done anything bad! Yea, I was at the party, but that's it. We danced a bit, and that was it! I didn't even bring my potion ingredients, hell, I didn't even have my wand with me. [17:41] <Agamemnon> I wasn't anywhere near her drinks [17:43] * Dalimbar gasps [17:43] <Agamemnon> It's true! [17:43] <Dalimbar> That Dalimbar guy sounds so.... evil! [17:44] <Dalimbar> But sadly... it was Geo_X who I was following. [17:44] <Geo_X> [17:44] * Agamemnon DUN DUN DUUUNNN [17:44] <Dalimbar> I was having an affair with him. [17:44] <Dalimbar> There, I said it! [17:44] * Dalimbar cries [17:44] * Agamemnon gasps [17:44] <Geo_X> LIES [17:44] * Geo_X is OUTRAGED [17:44] <Dalimbar> OH SURE, disown me! [17:44] <Agamemnon> So it was Geo who spiked the lemonade?! [17:45] <Dalimbar> Yes. [17:45] * Agamemnon thinks Tse owes him an apology [17:45] * NewKervoskia ques reconciliation [17:45] <Geo_X> hold a moment [17:45] * Geo_X continues denial [17:45] * TseMoana moves head from one to anoter [17:45] <TseMoana> *another [17:45] <TseMoana> I'm not saying anything until I get proof [17:46] <Geo_X> i have never spiked any lemonade! [17:46] <TseMoana> ptah [17:46] <Dalimbar> uh huh... [17:46] <Agamemnon> Now I think about it.. I do remember seeing Geo with a metal flask when he came in! [17:46] <TseMoana> SOMEONE, you fight over who exactly, did something to her lemonade [17:46] * Dalimbar slinks out of the room, sneakily... [17:46] <Geo_X> that metal flask contained my propel gatorade water, okay? [17:47] <Geo_X> jeebus [17:47] * Agamemnon points wand at door and locks it [17:47] *** Dalimbar is now known as Dali|out [17:47] <Agamemnon> No one's going anywhere till we figure out who did this! [17:47] <Limi> hello [17:48] <Geo_X> i'm confused [17:48] * TseMoana drops back down on couch and gulps down some water [17:48] <TseMoana> I'm calm again [17:48] * TseMoana smiles sweetest smile [17:48] * Agamemnon swears he didn't do anything! [17:51] * Agamemnon takes a seat in the comfortable chair next to the couch [17:47] <NewKervoskia> While those two settle affairs, please welcome Candidate Limitless Events. [17:52] <NewKervoskia> Now Limitless Events, welcome! [17:52] <Limi> hi everyone [17:53] <NewKervoskia> So you're running for Chancellor and you've received general financial support from Papa "Warbucks" Karpathos. [17:53] <NewKervoskia> generous* [17:54] <Limi> yes I have [17:55] <NewKervoskia> Any campaign plans? [17:58] <NewKervoskia> Or message to the voters about your fellow candidates. [17:59] <Limi> I'm am a loyal feederite and have been since I started playing [17:59] <NewKervoskia> What makes you stand out? [18:00] <EmperorMatthuis> But aren't you leaving in a month? [18:00] <Limi> a month is plenty of time to get things rolling on track to make The Pacific even more glorious than it already is [18:02] <Limi> I am dedicated to any job that I am given or elected into and always find a way to draw people in [18:04] <NewKervoskia> Any ideas for legislation? [18:04] <Limi> I have been in the feeders for over 2 and a half years now and know how things run [18:05] <Limi> I would be in favor of setting up a dedicated team to work together each day to telegram new nations each day [18:05] <Limi> similar to the program I tried to implement in TNP but died due to lack of participation [18:06] <NewKervoskia> Any final words for our viewers? [18:07] <Limi> I would just encourage others to follow the words Karpathos has said and send a puppet into The Rejected Realms in tribute to Franco [18:07] <NewKervoskia> Wise words. [18:07] <NewKervoskia> Thank you all for tuning into today's edition of Nightline NationStates. Good night, and get out
