Ion and Ollie travel to Malfaction to meet up with Prince and Ceph to make preparations for the wedding. They choose a location and begin to work on the terraforming process. During this, Ceph and Ollie get into an argument, as they are often wont to do. During the course of this, Ceph reveals that they were in contact with an Operator. Ollie marks them as a traitor, but Ceph argues that there was no one on Untitled they felt they could trust, and further, that at the end of the previous world, they thought they were going to die. They blame Ollie for this, but at the end, it’s clear both of them have deeply complicated feelings for another that neither of them are willing to examine.

[Ollie and Ion exit the nether portal into the Malfaction underground shopping area. They have a short conversation as they make their way upstairs.]

[Ion bounces on their toes, extremely excited.]

[18:20:48]  <✦[rp] Ollie> mhm ...hopefully things will be .....normal

[Ollie rolls his eyes, but smiles slightly at Ion.]

[18:20:54]  <✦[rp] Ollie> let's go

[Prince walks down the stairs, checking the time as he looks around for both Ceph and the two visiting Wisterians.]

[Prince continues to ignore Ollie.]

[18:22:57]  <✦ [rp]Prince> i ammmmm, i plan many things and its awesome

[Ion looks at the “DNI” sign in front of the Malfaction staircase.]

[18:23:13]  <✦[rp] Ion> ollie is this you?

[18:23:18]  <✦[rp] Ollie> what

[18:24:27]  <✦[rp] Ion> i've never seen anything like it

[18:24:37]  <✦ [rp]Prince> yeah cus its unique and awesome

[They summit the stairs, exiting out into the Malfaction station proper.] 

[18:24:50]  <✦ [rp]Prince> welcome to the station

[18:25:10]  <✦[rp] Ollie> this looks nice ...besides the cobwebs

[Ion notices a piece of paper on the ground, picking it up to read it. It is one of papers about the Echo and its ilk.]

[18:25:18]  <✦[rp] Ollie> this place really needs to be cleaned

[18:24:55]  <✦[rp] Ion> whats the echo?

[18:25:11]  <✦[rp] Ion> is it like a club?

[Prince snaps to attention.] 

[18:25:12]  <✦ [rp]Prince> the echo is awesome and cool and theyre my collective dads

[18:25:22]  <✦[rp] Ollie> what

[18:25:22]  <✦[rp] Ion> ahhh amazing!

[18:25:52]  <✦[rp] Ollie> oh haha okay thats a normal thing to say

[18:25:39]  <✦ [rp]Prince> this place Was Just Here honestly

[Ion explores the station, touching the sculk on the wall.]

[18:25:28]  <✦[rp] Ion> more skulk stuff

[Their mouth opens as they see the massive bridge highway network spanning across the frigid Malfaction landscape.]

[18:25:45]  <✦[rp] Ion> oooohh the bridge :0

[18:26:02]  <✦ [rp]Prince> yes!! the bridge

[18:26:04]  <✦ [rp]Prince> our highway

[18:26:22]  <✦[rp] Ollie> these bridges are nice

[18:26:32]  <✦ [rp]Prince> theyre. not finished

[18:26:38]  <✦ [rp]Prince> but probably will be one day

[18:26:42]  <✦[rp] Ollie> anyway, lead the way Prince

[Ion gets distracted by something in the distance.]

[18:26:37]  <✦[rp] Ion> ooh whats that

[Ollie turns to look at whatever Ion saw, but Prince waves to both of them as he begins onto the bridge and towards the church.]

[18:26:51]  <✦ [rp]Prince> over here gentleguys

[Ion and Ollie follow after him, and they travel the short distance from the station to the church in relative quiet. Prince hums “Running in the 90’s” under his breath. Ollie rubs the outside of his arms, wishing he brought warmer clothes. Ion is enamored with the landscape, taking in every detail with rapt fascination.]

[Prince leads them off bridge and into the tamped down snow. There’s not quite a proper path, but there’s indents in the snow where people have passed back and forth over it on their way to the church.]

[18:27:51]  <✦ [rp]Prince> the path to the church isnt finished yet, but its just straight ahead

[The three continue. They crest the top of the hill to see the massive blackstone structure in the distance. The structure is a gorgeous gothic church, dripping with ornamentation and detail. The dark stained glass windows, wide and yawning, reflect the snow, and glow in the midafternoon sunlight. Spires on the top reach for the clear blue sky above, the frost gathering on their metal tips turning them a pale white.]

[18:28:05]  <✦ [rp]Prince> tadaaaaa

[Prince stretches his arms wide.]

[Ollie snorts.]

[18:28:08]  <✦[rp] Ollie> hah, cephs getting married in a church

[18:28:08]  <✦[rp] Ion> woah

[The three of them pass under a massive archway. Sculk twinkles in the ceiling, glowing with luminescence as it registers the sound of their footfalls.]

[18:28:26]  <✦[rp] Ollie> oh wow

[18:28:39]  <✦[rp] Ion> holy smokes

[Ollie reaches out to touch a patch of gilded blackstone.]

[18:28:46]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i like the gold

[Prince cups his mouth, shouting into his hands]

[18:28:46]  <✦ [rp]Prince> CEPHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. YOU IN HERE?

[He doesn’t need to do much more than raise his voice slightly. His words echo against the high ceilings and flood through the space.] 

[As Prince’s voice dissipates, there’s another sound that takes over. The harsh click of heels against the stone floor.]

[18:29:03]  <✦[rp] Ollie> oh no

[Ceph appears. They intimidate in a lowcut blue dress and dark dressing gown trimmed in white fur. Their crown is wickedly sharp perched on their head, nestled against their horns. They stare, half-lidded, at the company in front of them. Their tongue darts out slightly to wet their lips. Ceph grins a wild, wolfish grin.]

[18:29:06]  <✦[rp] ceph> hey hoes. iv been expecting u

[Ion waves.]

[18:29:10]  <✦[rp] Ion> hiiii

[Prince does a half-bow.]

[18:29:13]  <✦ [rp]Prince> hiya sire

[Ion copies Prince, doing a polite curtsey.]

[18:29:28]  <✦[rp] ceph> hey ollie. prince. ion

[Ion tips their head back, marveling at the sculk on the ceiling.]

[18:30:32]  <✦[rp] Ion> ooh this is pretty

[18:30:40]  <✦[rp] Ion> more skulk :))

[Ceph crosses the room, gesturing to Prince. They scamper over, pulling a bar cart out of the wall for Ceph to grab from. They pick up a large bottle of vodka.]

[18:30:38]  <✦[rp] ceph> vodka anyone?

[18:30:45]  <✦ [rp]Prince> i can stand some vodka

[18:30:47]  <✦[rp] Ion> ooh whats vodka

[18:30:54]  <✦[rp] ceph> hah

[As Prince pours his King and their guest a drink, Ollie has a chance to look around.]

[18:30:38]  <✦[rp] Ollie> oh.

[They notice a collection of their own heads placed neatly on the alcoves.]

[18:30:55]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ceph what the fuck is this decor

[18:31:05]  <✦[rp] ceph> oh ykno

[18:31:18]  <✦[rp] ceph> a monument to ur death

[Prince makes Ceph a drink masterfully, clearly having done so many times. He makes them a vodka soda, hold the soda, infused with good Verde kush smoke. Prince hands them the drink.]

[18:31:38]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ceph no offense but you are deranged

[Ceph takes it, smiling over the rim.]

[18:31:50]  <✦[rp] ceph> so are u honey <3

[18:31:57]  <✦[rp] Ollie> don't call me that

[They sip it politely.] 

[18:32:28]  <✦[rp] ceph> ollie u tried to kill me ill call u what i want

[18:32:58]  <✦[rp] Ollie> okay yeah Prince calls me Oily so fuck me I guess

[18:33:08]  <✦[rp] ceph> in ur dreams

[Prince, while making a drink for Ion, leans over to Ceph.]

[18:33:12]  <✦ [rp]Prince> his name's oily right

[Ceph, without looking away from Ollie.]

[18:33:19]  <✦[rp] ceph> yea sure

[Prince makes an extremely stiff vodka soda with a twist of lime, and hands it to Ion.]

[Ion opens their mouth and throws the entire drink back into it. They smack their mouth open and closed.]

[18:31:13]  <✦[rp] Ion> hey i like this stuff

[18:31:19]  <✦[rp] Ion> wowee

[Prince pauses, eyebrows furrowed, hands still out in confusion.]

[18:31:19]  <✦ [rp]Prince> ion did you just chug the vodka

[18:31:26]  <✦[rp] Ion> this feels great

[Ollie turns back around from staring at his own heads. He blinks.]

[18:31:45]  <✦[rp] Ollie> oh

[18:31:46]  <✦[rp] Ollie> vodka

[Ion begins to sway slightly.]

[18:32:03]  <✦[rp] Ion> is it just me or did everything change from solid to liquid

[18:32:22]  <✦ [rp]Prince> you chugged straight vodka puppet guy

[18:32:33]  <✦[rp] Ollie> Ion you should try to drink a bit slower- and less

[18:32:48]  <✦[rp] Ion> but it was fun! can i have some more?

[18:33:16]  <✦[rp] Ollie> Ion it's fun, until it isn't and suddenly you can't see

[Ollie crosses to the bar cart, he looks through the bottles, raising his eyebrows at the labels.]

[18:32:19]  <✦[rp] Ollie> also wow did you bring this alcohol from the last world??

[18:32:33]  <✦[rp] ceph> yea ^_^

[18:32:43]  <✦[rp] ceph> a whole 5 shulkers

[Prince hands Ion a second drink.]

[18:33:01]  <✦[rp] Ion> yayy thank you

[They follow Ceph’s lead, drinking it much slower this time. Suddenly, Ion remembers why they’re there.]

[18:33:09]  <✦[rp] Ion> oh wait wedding!!!

[18:34:53]  <✦[rp] Ion> and i bought flowers :)

[18:37:41]  <✦[rp] ceph> anyway

[Prince holds up a hand, the other clutched over his stomach.]

[18:38:01]  <✦ [rp]Prince> yea ywea- hurk

[Ollie frowns deeply, turning back to the ground.]

[18:38:05]  <✦[rp] Ollie> should we have an alcohol limit? Like ...how much a person can drink at the venue

[18:38:23]  <✦[rp] Ollie> it would be a bad idea not to have one, at least in the main event

[Prince returns, his fur mussed up. He looks like hell.]

[Ollie stares at Ceph pointedly.]

[18:38:42]  <✦[rp] Ollie> are you sure.

[Ceph stares back, ignoring Prince’s behavior.]

[18:38:46]  <✦[rp] ceph> yea

[Ollie draws in a long breath.]

[18:39:26]  <✦[rp] Ollie> which, yeah I think is a good choice

[Ceph swirls their drink around, head resting on their hand, they sigh wistfully.]

[18:39:25]  <✦ [rp]Prince> doc's a tough cookie. he wont

[Ollie pauses for a moment before responding.]

[The four of them head out of the room, and out of the church proper.]

[18:49:47]  <✦[rp] Ollie> do you have any ideas for where the venue could be

[18:50:01]  <✦ [rp]Prince> no locations specifically

[18:50:06]  <✦ [rp]Prince> but we could look around

[18:50:33]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i guess we can just

[18:50:35]  <✦[rp] Ollie> walk around-

[18:50:36]  <✦[rp] Ion> it would be lovely if there was a spot up on a hill

[18:50:41]  <✦[rp] Ollie> unless Prince, you have any ideas

[18:50:54]  <✦ [rp]Prince> oh nah. im not one for planning

[Ceph squints into the distance.]

[18:51:17]  <✦[rp] ceph> idk man theres a gay forest

[18:51:33]  <✦[rp] Ollie> hmm, would a forest be a good idea tho

[18:51:42]  <✦[rp] Ollie> I think a mountain might be better

[They turn in one direction.]

[18:52:12]  <✦[rp] ceph> theres a redwood one

[18:52:19]  <✦[rp] Ollie> really?

[And then another.]

[18:52:25]  <✦[rp] ceph> n a snowy spruce one

[Ceph blinks, their eyes focusing on the closer distance.]

[18:52:27]  <✦[rp] ceph> ooh

[18:52:48]  <✦[rp] ceph> i can see way better than all of u

[18:53:15]  <✦[rp] ceph> the redwood forest iss uhh

[They point in the direction of the sun, moving their body to try and figure out the pinpoints.]

[18:53:43]  <✦[rp] ceph> to x neg z neg

[Ceph opens their wings and takes off.]

[18:53:57]  <✦[rp] Ollie> alright guess we will just ..follow you

[Prince activates his elytra, and readies himself to fly as well.]

[18:54:07]  <✦ [rp]Prince> yup. chop chop nerds

[He takes off, leaving Ollie and Ion on the ground. Ollie shouts after them.]

[18:54:13]  <✦[rp] Ollie> do we have permission to fly in this faction-

[Ceph appears behind them.]

[18:54:24]  <✦[rp] ceph> no i came back

[18:54:38]  <✦[rp] ceph> its not far

[Prince returns, falling in line beside Ceph. The four of them travel through the snow. Prince and Ceph seem unfazed by the cold, and Ion either doesn’t feel it, or is too distracted by the walk to care, but Ollie shivers in the cold.]

[18:55:44]  <✦[rp] Ollie> how can you guys live here

[18:55:47]  <✦[rp] Ollie> its so COLD

[Ceph puts an “L” shape on their forehead.]

[18:55:52]  <✦[rp] ceph> L

[Ion speaks up, nodding.]

[18:55:53]  <✦[rp] Ion> it is very cold

[18:56:05]  <✦[rp] ceph> bitch im half naked out here

[18:56:14]  <✦[rp] ceph> most of the time

[18:56:50]  <✦ [rp]Prince> yeah its supposed to help your circulation or something

[18:57:02]  <✦[rp] Ollie> no no i think that will just freeze you to death

[In the distance, a howl is heard from the nearby woods.]

[18:56:03]  <✦[rp] Ollie> and why are there so many WOLVES

[Ollie looks around for Ceph.]

[18:56:51]  <✦[rp] Ollie> where is ceph

[They turn to see Ceph standing in front of an azalea tree.]

[18:57:16]  <✦[rp] ceph> oh my god

[18:57:20]  <✦[rp] Ollie> oh look at that

[18:57:24]  <✦[rp] Ollie> an azalea tree..

[Prince’s voice is heard shouting in the distance.]

[18:57:50]  <✦ [rp]Prince> SIRE WHERE ARE YOU

[The three turn to see Prince behind them, a look of panic on his face.]

[18:57:53]  <✦[rp] Ollie> prince are you okay

[He turns, shoulders relaxing as he sees them right behind him.] 

[18:57:54]  <✦ [rp]Prince> oh

[Ceph waves halfheartedly.]

[18:57:56]  <✦[rp] ceph> im here

[18:58:19]  <✦[rp] ceph> ok

[Ollie wanders off in search of a location.]

[18:58:44]  <✦[rp] Ollie> this place is close to a shore

[18:58:32]  <✦ [rp]Prince> oily you gotta follow us

[18:58:49]  <✦[rp] ceph> pissass

[18:59:58]  <✦[rp] ceph> jfc

[Ceph bumps into Ollie.]

[19:00:14]  <✦[rp] ceph> hey ;)

[Ollie pushes them away, not looking where he’s going.]

[19:00:21]  <✦[rp] Ollie> keep looking

[Ollie trips into freezing cold lake water.]

[19:00:39]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ah fuck water

[19:00:53]  <✦[rp] ceph> u a goddamn enderman

[19:03:57]  <✦[rp] Ollie> the water is fucking COLD okay

[Finally, they arrive. Ceph stops in a random area.]

[19:04:01]  <✦[rp] ceph> anyway. here we are. my sense of direction is impeccable

[19:04:16]  <✦[rp] Ollie> oh

[Prince draws his sword, swiping Ion. They ignite on fire.]

[19:04:04]  <✦[rp] Ollie> guys dont murder

[19:04:20]  <✦ [rp]Prince> puppet guy just wanted to be on fire

[19:04:27]  <✦[rp] Ion> got to warm up

[Ollie shrugs, and starts to look around.]

[19:04:29]  <✦[rp] Ollie> this is a nice place I guess

[19:04:44]  <✦[rp] Ollie> the trees are very big

[19:04:45]  <✦ [rp]Prince> this i p nice tbh

[Ollie turns to Ion.]

[19:04:55]  <✦[rp] Ollie> what do you think of the place Ion

[They make a picture frame with their fingers, looking at the locations through it.]

[19:05:32]  <✦[rp] Ion> im thinking i want around a 50 x 30 spot for the hall, and i love the surroundings, but im sad its not a hill

[19:05:41]  <✦[rp] Ollie> we could look for a hill

[19:05:45]  <✦[rp] Ion> :)

[19:05:45]  <✦[rp] ceph> yea

[19:06:10]  <✦[rp] Ollie> guess we gotta keep looking

[19:06:13]  <✦[rp] Ollie> but it should be close

[The group continues to walk. Ollie leads, stopping every once and a while for Ion to inspect the surroundings.]

[19:07:08]  <✦[rp] Ollie> this is more of a hill

[Ion looks, but shakes their head. They continue.]

[19:07:47]  <✦[rp] Ollie> oh how about this

[19:08:09]  <✦[rp] Ollie> the grass could be added for more greenery

[19:08:29]  <✦[rp] Ollie> and this hill could be leveled out

[19:08:32]  <✦[rp] Ion> needs a bit of smoothing out but it'll do nicely :)

[Ion nods, and they all stop.]

[19:08:36]  <✦[rp] Ion> love it!

[19:08:43]  <✦[rp] Ollie> glad to hear that Ion

[19:08:48]  <✦[rp] Ion> yayyyy

[Ceph sidles up to Ollie again.]

[19:11:15]  <✦[rp] Ollie> hello

[19:11:24]  <✦[rp] Ollie> okay- yeah sure push me off

[19:11:26]  <✦ [rp]Prince> oh! perfect

[Prince pulls out two shulker boxes of blackstone, and hands them to Ion.]

[19:11:55]  <✦[rp] Ion> woah

[19:11:43]  <✦[rp] Ion> ohhh thank you mr prince sir

[19:11:56]  <✦ [rp]Prince> no problem

[19:12:02]  <✦[rp] ceph> tf r u writing in that gay lil book of urs

[Prince looks over Ollie’s shoulder.]

[19:12:11]  <✦ [rp]Prince> he's writing about men

[Confused: ]

[19:12:17]  <✦[rp] Ollie> just making sure i dont forget anything

[19:12:29]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ???

[The page is, quite glaringly obviously to anyone looking at it, blank.]

[Ollie rolls his eyes and flips the page back to his checklist.]

[Ollie turns to see Prince has stealthily taken his book without him realizing, and is now reading from it.]

[19:15:43]  <✦[rp] Ollie> I DID NOT WRITE THAT

[Prince turns the book towards Ollie, and points at a point on the page.]

[19:15:50]  <✦ [rp]Prince> you did. its right there

[The page is blank.]

[19:15:52]  <✦[rp] Ollie> WHAT DOES THAT MEAN !!!!!!!!!!

[19:16:13]  <✦[rp] Ollie> im putting away this book

[Ollie puts it away into his ender chest.] 

[19:16:33]  <✦[rp] Ollie> if i forget something, its your fault ceph

[19:16:36]  <✦ [rp]Prince> he's hiding his misogyny, sire. that book was full of yaoi kissing

[19:17:45]  <✦[rp] Ollie> what are you SAYING

[Ceph leans against a tree.]

[19:18:04]  <✦[rp] ceph> their hogs i think

[19:18:11]  <✦[rp] ceph> not logs

[Ollie’s face screws up.]

[19:18:14]  <✦[rp] Ollie> what's hogs

[Prince points at Ollie.]

[19:18:14]  <✦ [rp]Prince> sire gets it

[Ollie runs his fingers down his face, exasperated.]

[19:18:28]  <✦[rp] Ollie> can we just have a normal conversation

[19:18:35]  <✦ [rp]Prince> this IS normal

[19:18:39]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ITS NOT!!

[Ceph hands Prince their axe.]

[19:19:42]  <✦ [rp]Prince> i can lend you mine oily

[19:19:51]  <✦[rp] Ollie> no thanks

[Ollie begins to start chopping down trees alongside Ion and Prince. Ceph begins to butt into Ollie’s space.]

[19:20:01]  <✦[rp] Ollie> stop PUSHING ME

[With a well placed shove, they push Ollie into a ravine.]

[Ollie hits the ground, but survives.]

[19:20:10]  <✦[rp] Ollie> hah

[19:20:11]  <✦[rp] Ollie> fucker

[They hold up their boots.]

[19:20:25]  <✦[rp] Ollie> I got FEATHER FALLING

[Ceph frowns. They fly down into the pit with Ollie, bringing their sword down on him. Ollie melts into void.]

[19:20:28]  ✦[rp] Ollie was slain by ✦[rp] ceph using [im gonna kill u..bc i can]

[Ceph flies up the ravine, and lands delicately next to Prince.]

[19:20:39]  <✦ [rp]Prince> nice kill sire

[Ollie returns, face set with anger.]

[19:20:42]  <✦[rp] Ollie> do you feel good about killing me

[Ceph smiles, answering sweetly.]

[19:20:50]  <✦[rp] ceph> yes actually

[They hold Ollie’s head gently in their hands.]

[19:20:58]  <✦[rp] Ollie> are you gonna add it to that weird collection of yours

[They tuck it away and draw their sword again.]

[19:21:00]  <✦[rp] ceph> i just wish itd stick

[Ceph attacks Ollie once.]

[19:21:22]  <✦[rp] Ollie> im not gonna fight you

[19:21:28]  <✦[rp] ceph> wowww

[19:21:31]  <✦[rp] ceph> wowwwwwwwwwww

[Ion hurries over.]

[19:21:32]  <✦[rp] Ion> why are you harming my good factionmate ollie?

[The two of them are two engrossed in their slowly beginning argument to notice Ion’s approach.]

[19:21:34]  <✦[rp] Ollie> im not going to entertain you like that

[Ceph crossed their arms, their sword dangling from their hand.]

[19:21:51]  <✦[rp] ceph> ur taking the moral high ground

[19:22:14]  <✦[rp] Ollie> in a way, I just dont really see the point of fighting you anymore

[19:22:31]  <✦[rp] ceph> do u think if u let me kill u enough ill forget the times u tried to kill me

[19:22:40]  <✦[rp] Ollie> no, i dont think so

[19:23:13]  <✦[rp] ceph> u dont mean that

[19:23:21]  <✦[rp] ceph> u feel guilty~

[Prince walks over slowly, stepping up next to where Ion is standing and watching them. He whispers: ] 

[19:23:29]  <✦ [rp]Prince> i dropped my shovel to Oily, but then ceph had it and now i have no shovel. and theyre arguing

[Ion turns to look at him.]

[19:23:51]  <✦ [rp]Prince> oh you heard me

[19:24:00]  <✦[rp] Ion> hey hows the axe?

[19:24:07]  <✦ [rp]Prince> handles well!

[19:24:15]  <✦[rp] Ion> good old hache

[Ollie and Ceph continue to argue.]

[19:23:43]  <✦[rp] Ollie> I did feel guilty before

[19:24:35]  <✦[rp] Ollie> but when I found that letter of yours, I started doubting things

[19:24:37]  <✦[rp] ceph> u went through my goddamn mail u invaded my privacy . like a goddamn cop

[19:25:43]  <✦[rp] Ollie> honestly, I did it out of curiosity, i just thought id find something silly or embarassing

[19:26:49]  <✦[rp] ceph> u suck. ur illiterate

[19:26:08]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i never would have thought you were talking to an unknown

[19:26:27]  <✦[rp] ceph> u wanna know a secret

[19:26:44]  <✦[rp] Ollie> what? that you brought them there? that you brought that unknown to our last world?

[19:27:16]  <✦[rp] ceph> u know i cant do that

[19:27:30]  <✦[rp] Ollie> well i dont know that for sure

[19:27:02]  <✦[rp] ceph> what the fuck are u saying

[19:27:12]  <✦[rp] Ollie> you knowing the unknown's language reflects badly on YOU, not me bitch

[19:27:51]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i trusted you, you were my friend, and then it turns out you have had a fun little penpal-

[19:27:41]  <✦[rp] ceph> well u marrying an unknown says some shit about u

[19:28:10]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i didnt KNOW he was one and also, he was a player when i met him

[As they argue, Ion begins to place flowers around their feet.]

[19:28:12]  <✦[rp] Ollie> its different

[19:28:18]  <✦[rp] ceph> sure

[19:28:33]  <✦[rp] ceph> ur such a goddamn hypocrite

[19:28:35]  <✦[rp] Ollie> its DIFFERENT

[19:29:10]  <✦[rp] ceph> what about dan? is he evil for marrying that one operator?

[19:29:48]  <✦[rp] Ollie> well i certainly wasnt glad to hear dan was pursuing one

[19:30:07]  <✦[rp] ceph> ur such a fucking idiot

[19:30:25]  <✦[rp] Ollie> im not an idiot for trying to keep the players safe

[Ceph turns away, their face tinged slightly red from anger. Ollie turns his head to the ground after Ceph won’t look at him.]

[19:30:34]  <✦[rp] ceph> hey ha i can see the church from here

[Ollie notices the flowers.]

[19:30:35]  <✦[rp] Ollie> also where did these flowers come from-

[They look to see Ion waving as they pull more flowers from their satchel, spreading them across the ground.]

[19:30:48]  <✦[rp] Ion> :)

[Ceph crosses their arms, rubbing the outsides of them exposed to the cold. Their voice is sharp and slightly upset.]

[19:30:53]  <✦[rp] ceph> im done talking to u u fucking widow

[Ollie groans with relief.]

[19:30:59]  <✦[rp] Ollie> finally

[Ceph looks back at him, their eyes are dark. They tongue their words coldly.]

[19:31:04]  <✦[rp] ceph> u never saw me as a player anyway

[Ceph opens their wings and takes off skyward, disappearing towards the church.]

[Prince clears his throat, looking towards where Ion is standing.]

[19:31:35]  <✦ [rp]Prince> so. um. ion. is this low enough

[Ollie rolls his eyes and goes to join them.]

[Prince watches Ollie cautiously.]

[19:31:43]  <✦ [rp]Prince> do we need to dig more or

[Ion doesn’t seem fazed by the argument or Ceph storming off at all.]

[The two of them discuss where to place the hall.]

[19:31:56]  <✦[rp] Ion> nah i think we need to raise it to the next level

[19:32:02]  <✦[rp] Ion> raise

[19:32:11]  <✦[rp] Ion> whatever the downwards one is

[19:32:19]  <✦ [rp]Prince> drop it down one?

[19:32:34]  <✦[rp] Ion> to here?

[19:32:39]  <✦ [rp]Prince> to there?

[19:32:49]  <✦[rp] Ion> or expand our current terrain

[19:32:57]  <✦ [rp]Prince> we can drop it down

[Ollie watches them but doesn’t join. He grabs the bottle of vodka Ceph gave him from his inventory bag. Ollie turns it over, reading the label. He sighs. He drinks. It tastes bad, but it makes him feel warm for the first time since stepping into Malfaction. It burns his throat.]

[19:33:02]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ow

[But in a good way. He stares off into the distance towards the church.]

[Inside the church, Ceph raids the bar cart. They gather as much alcohol into a shulker box as they can. They make themself a vodka soda. It doesn’t taste the same as when Prince makes it but this is more about numbing that conversation with Ollie than anything else. They knock back as many as they can before their fingers start to buzz with that hazy numbness. A wonderful idea begins to burrow into their head.]

[Ion steps back to get a better picture of the area.]

[19:33:23]  <✦[rp] Ion> hmmm let me picture this

[19:34:49]  <✦[rp] Ion> yes we're going to need a lot more space

[Ollie, sightly buzzed now, takes a good look at the area in the fading light.]

[19:33:41]  <✦[rp] Ollie> these pink flowers are quite nice actually..

[Prince’s eyes widen as he notices someone approach from behind them.]

[19:34:32]  <✦ [rp]Prince> hey oily. not to disturb ur angst

[Ollie blinks, shaking his head.]

[19:34:41]  <✦[rp] Ollie> im . completely fine and normal

[19:34:49]  <✦ [rp]Prince> but is that the sire, with your head, in a maid dress

[19:34:56]  <✦ [rp]Prince> behind you

[19:34:56]  <✦[rp] ceph> heyyyy~~~

[19:34:56]  <✦[rp] Ion> oh

[19:34:57]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i-

[Ion waves at Ceph with confusion.]

[19:34:59]  <✦[rp] Ion> hey

[Ollie turns around to Ceph directly behind him]

[19:35:06]  <✦[rp] Ollie> FUCKING SHIT DONT SCARE ME LIKE THST

[19:35:11]  <✦[rp] ceph> ^_^

[Ceph is indeed wearing a maid dress, but as Ollie moves away from them, it’s clear they’ve shapeshifted themself into the form of Ollie.]

[19:35:18]  <✦[rp] Ollie> you are SO IMMATURE

[Ceph begins to pretend to be Ollie, rubbing their eyes as they pretend to cry.]

[19:35:30]  <✦[rp] ceph> oh hiii im ollie. im widowed n SAD

[19:35:39]  <✦[rp] ceph> everybody cry 4 me

[Prince murmurs: ]

[19:36:11]  <✦ [rp]Prince> oh god theyre fighting again"

[Ollie shouts at them]

[19:35:45]  <✦[rp] Ollie> thats not me cuz id never WEAR THAT

[Ceph sticks their tongue out.]

[19:36:14]  <✦[rp] ceph> ur a prude

[They do they “neko” paw gestures with their hands.]

[19:36:25]  <✦[rp] ceph> nya~~

[Ollie wrinkles his nose. He can barely bear to look at Ceph.]

[19:37:00]  <✦[rp] Ollie> is this some sort of weird fucking fantasy you have

[19:37:04]  <✦[rp] Ollie> jeez

[Ceph resumes their normal position.]

[19:37:25]  <✦[rp] ceph> of u in a dress? no

[19:38:52]  <✦[rp] ceph> i think i just like you being angry at me on my own terms~ but that sounds a bit too sincere

[19:39:34]  <✦[rp] Ollie> why

[19:39:52]  <✦[rp] ceph> why not? why believe me ?

[19:40:13]  <✦[rp] ceph> u don't about so many other things

[19:40:22]  <✦[rp] ceph> why is this different

[19:40:42]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i know i dont, but dont act like you know everything either

[19:41:06]  <✦[rp] Ollie> also can you please take off that maid dress its stupid, dont you have any sort of dignity-

[19:40:58]  <✦[rp] ceph> i know you

[19:41:10]  <✦[rp] Ollie> you dont

[19:41:13]  <✦[rp] Ollie> at least not anymore

[19:41:35]  <✦[rp] ceph> i do. more than you'd be comfortable with

[19:41:51]  <✦[rp] ceph> does the dress bother you that much?

[19:42:25]  <✦[rp] Ollie> what bothers me is you looking like me

[They pout using Ollie’s lips.]

[19:43:09]  <✦[rp] ceph> well you will have to cope

[19:43:28]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i guess so

[Ollie turns, and is surprised to see Ion beside them.]

[19:44:37]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i didnt see you there-

[19:45:52]  <✦[rp] Ollie> do we ..have anything else to discuss-

[19:46:05]  <✦[rp] Ion> hmm date

[19:46:45]  <✦[rp] Ion> oh no

[19:46:46]  <✦[rp] Ollie> awesome

[Ceph scoffs, they shapeshift out of Ollie’s body and into their own again.]

[19:46:10]  <✦[rp] ceph> i look better in my own face anyway

[19:47:07]  <✦[rp] Ollie> haha wow have i really pissed you off

[19:47:10]  <✦[rp] Ollie> are you in a bad mood?

[Ceph grabs a rock off the ground and throws it at Ollie. It hits Ollie in the shoulder.]

[19:47:35]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ow-

[He sounds more annoyed than hurt.]

[19:48:03]  <✦[rp] Ollie> poor you ceph

[19:48:32]  <✦[rp] ceph> if u say one more word to me ill snap ur goddamn bitch ass neck

[19:48:27]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ohh I agree I agree

[Ion waves their hands.]

[19:48:09]  <✦[rp] Ion> hey hey hey, we're here for happy times not violent times

[19:48:37]  <✦[rp] Ollie> Ion you are so right, what would we do without you

[19:48:45]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ahhahaa go ahead then

[19:48:45]  <✦[rp] Ion> aw thank you :)

[Ion leans towards Ceph on the tips of their toes.]

[19:49:24]  <✦[rp] Ion> sooo .... whats the date?

[Ceph crosses their arms. They’re no longer having any fun.]

[19:49:39]  <✦[rp] ceph> ..in a week idk

[Ion claps with excitement.]

[19:49:53]  <✦[rp] Ion> so soon? how exciting!

[19:50:05]  <✦[rp] Ollie> uhhhh wwouldnt you be rushing Ion

[19:51:04]  <✦[rp] ceph> anyone got a light i need to burn this junk

[Ceph holds their Ollie head.]

[19:51:18]  <✦[rp] Ollie> uhh i dont

[19:51:38]  <✦[rp] ceph> ofc u dont ur not cool enough

[Ollie retrieves his notebook, opening it and writing down the date for a week from the current day.]

[19:52:36]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ii guess ill write down the wedding for exactly one week

[Ceph takes out a lighter and sets the head on fire.]

[19:52:38]  <✦[rp] ceph> trash burning

[19:54:15]  <✦[rp] ceph> my operator hoe does <3

[Ollie’s eyes widen, but Ceph is too distracted by trying to dunk on Ollie.]

[19:54:27]  <✦[rp] ceph> and punk would

[19:54:39]  <✦[rp] ceph> hell ur dad might too

[Ollie shakes their head, confused.]

[19:54:49]  <✦[rp] Ollie> wwait you were talking to an OPERATOR

[Ceph grins at their own ability to get bitches.]

[19:54:54]  <✦[rp] ceph> long line of hoes here

[19:55:55]  <✦[rp] ceph> u dont need to know anything else bc u take it in the WORST way

[Prince returns from taking a nap in his snow fort, he leans over to Ion, who is just trying to get their work done.]

[19:56:10]  <✦ [rp]Prince> we dropping this down again?

[Across the way, Ion points: ]

[19:56:36]  <✦[rp] Ion> here. the doors will be

[Prince nods]

[Ollie gets into Ceph’s face.]

[19:55:27]  <✦[rp] Ollie> so im RIGHT

[Ceph pushes on Ollie’s chest to shove him back.]

[19:56:17]  <✦[rp] ceph> back the fuck up

[19:56:19]  <✦[rp] Ollie> well what would be the RIGHT way to take you talking to one of the HIGHEST ranking unknown

[19:56:48]  <✦[rp] ceph> idk "Congrats on the insane bag!!!" or some shit

[19:56:33]  <✦[rp] Ollie> you are a fucking traitor arent you

[Ollie continues to get into Ceph’s space. Ceph shows their teeth.]

[19:56:59]  <✦[rp] ceph> get away from me

[Ollie growls, he pushes Ceph so that they’re backed into a corner: ]

[19:57:15]  <✦[rp] Ollie> or what?

[He places his hand on his sword.]

[19:57:33]  <✦[rp] Ollie> im not like you, i can respawn yk

[Ceph snarls back.]

[19:57:34]  <✦[rp] ceph> u cant do shit

[19:57:43]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i cant, but you cant either

[19:57:56]  <✦[rp] ceph> ur too fucking coward to take me out

[Prince and Ion continue to work as tensions between Ceph and Ollie grow.]

[Prince whispers: ]

[19:57:59]  <✦ [rp]Prince> so we level down to that point?

[19:57:42]  <✦[rp] Ion> furthest back point

[19:58:29]  <✦[rp] Ion> yee

[19:58:35]  <✦[rp] Ion> this is one side

[19:59:24]  <✦[rp] Ion> this is the other :)

[Ollie pushes that flat of his sword against Ceph’s chest.]

[19:58:36]  <✦[rp] Ollie> i dont want to kill you ceph

[Cephs laughs raspily.]

[19:58:50]  <✦[rp] ceph> like id belive that

[19:59:05]  <✦[rp] Ollie> youre not scary, youre just annoying and a bit pathetic

[19:59:20]  <✦[rp] Ollie> you just made this wedding for attention didnt you

[Quietly, with some emotion.]

[19:59:13]  <✦[rp] ceph> i cant trust anyone on this fucking server

[In the distance, Prince can be heard shouting from under some dirt.]

[19:59:31]  <✦ [rp]Prince> you can trust me sire!!

[Ceph raises their voice.]

[19:59:43]  <✦[rp] ceph> yea sure !!

[They lower it again.]

[19:59:57]  <✦[rp] ceph> no i fucking cant

[Hiding emotion; with emphasis on “them”] 

[20:00:32]  <✦[rp] ceph> theyr the only one i can trust

[20:00:55]  <✦[rp] ceph> and youre just proving them right about u

[20:01:13]  <✦[rp] Ollie> who's "they"?

[Ceph shouts in Ollie’s face.]

[20:01:27]  <✦[rp] ceph> youre a fucking worthless, spineless coward

[Ollie presses the sword harder against Ceph.]

[20:01:59]  <✦[rp] Ollie> and?

[Ceph roars.]

[20:02:10]  <✦[rp] ceph> you couldn't even lead us when we needed you most

[20:02:23]  <✦[rp] Ollie> ....

[Their expression is fierce, feral almost, as their face begins to shift into something inhuman; but liquid beads in the corners of their eyes. There’s fear there. Deep fear.]

[20:02:29]  <✦[rp] ceph> we thought we were going to die

[Ollie falters, he’s almost taken by this. He pulls away enough for Ceph to slip out from under his grasp. His jaw sets.]

[20:02:51]  <✦[rp] Ollie> no no no no no don't put that shit on me

[Ceph doesn’t want to get close to him again, but they stick their finger out at them in accusation.]

[20:02:56]  <✦[rp] ceph> and YOU almost made that a reality.. at least for yourself

[Ollie looks at them in confusion. Ceph laughs lowly.]

[20:03:13]  <✦[rp] ceph> you don't even know do you

[20:03:26]  <✦[rp] Ollie> know what

[Ceph shakes their head, they look up, fanning their face.]

[20:03:35]  <✦[rp] ceph> ...pathetic

[They leave. Ollie growls under his breath.]

[20:04:06]  <✦[rp] Ollie> whatever-

[He finds where Ion is working.]

[20:04:15]  <✦[rp] Ollie> hiiii ionn how are things going

[He hands Ceph back their axe.]

[20:06:35]  <✦[rp] Ollie> sure sure

[Prince looks between Ollie and Ceph and murmurs.]

[20:06:36]   <✦ [rp]Prince> you two arent even the ones getting married…

[Ceph stares Ollie down.]

[Ollie waves, finally beginning to feel the five bottles of vodka he had earlier.]

[20:07:25]  <✦[rp] Ollie> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

[Ceph uses their fingers to spell the letters “K Y S”.]

[Ollie snorts, and flips up his middle finger at Ceph.]

[Ceph blows a kiss and turns to leave]

[Ollie pretends to bat away the kiss.]

[20:09:00]  <✦[rp] Ollie> bleh

[Rain begins to fall from the sky.]

[20:09:45]  <✦[rp] Ollie> EW RAIN

[Just as it begins, it ends.]

[20:10:20]  <✦[rp] Ion> quick shower

[20:10:26]  <✦[rp] Ollie> yayy

[20:10:32]  <✦[rp] Ollie> thank void

[20:10:46]  <✦[rp] ceph> go away

[20:11:33]  <✦[rp] Ollie> whos joe biden

[20:11:44]  <✦[rp] ceph> irrelevant

[Ollie gets closer to Ceph, who draws their weapon.]

[20:11:38]  <✦[rp] ceph> get the fuck back

[Ollie continues coming closer, so Ceph puts their sword to use, killing Ollie and exploding him into Void particles.]

[20:11:55]  ✦[rp] Ollie was slain by ✦[rp] ceph using [im gonna kill u..bc i can]

[From a distance.]

[20:12:07]  <✦ [rp]Prince> slay king

[Ollie goes looking for Ceph again.]

[20:12:17]  <✦[rp] Ollie> HAHH are you hiding from me

[Ceph, from behind a tree.]

[20:12:22]  <✦[rp] ceph> no
