Eye On The Opals Tuesday!
Brale Brother Reap was seen at the bar of the Red Dragon Inn on Tuesday night giving Quinn a shoulder to cry on and supplying her with alcohol. It seems that Quinn was all upset because her boy, Dean, had taken off. There should be some sort of rule that B.B. Reap isn’t allowed around alcohol and other people’s girlfriends. Unfortunately for B.B. Reap barely before he was able to start putting his moves on Quinn, Dean was tossed out of the Nexus and into the Inn. The pair had a sappy reunion over beer. Blah.
B.B. Reap wasn’t left without entertainment for too long because our Eve walked through the door. That’s right! You read it right! Eve! She was her typical ridiculous self too! We hear that she was trying to get Nigel to kiss her hand… because he’s British and that’s what British people do. Don’t blame us for the crazy reasoning. We don’t make this stuff up, we just report it! Based on her remarks, it seems that she is NOT looking for a new man. Evidently, she was overheard talking about Brale Brother Baker and it seems that the pair’s relationship remains cemented in alcohol and off color jokes!
A sizable crowd gathered in the Arena to watch as the Warlord Teagan pressed her right to challenge against the Baron of Dragon’s Gate, Cassius! Although Cassius had been pretty harsh with the warlord since the challenge was issued there didn’t seem to be any bad blood between them. It seems most wrote the comments Cassius made as just him being his typical grumpy self. In fact, Slutty Pirate Girl Teagan even said in her challenge that she had chosen Cassius because he would be the most difficult “challenge”.
The talk of the night wasn’t Arena politics, though, but the Outback’s opals! With the rash of opal challenges (on the date in question all the opals were under challenge) interest in the infamous objects has been raised yet again. They do seem to have some odd impacts on their holders — some opals more than others and some holders more than others. Some of the Outbacks regulars are a little nervous that the challengers don’t know what they’re getting into. FLAWLESS Koy was overheard explaining the situation, at least the best its understood, with Deliciously Sinful Sin and questioning Old Man Tass about his interest in them.
They weren’t the only ones deep in discussion about them, though. Speedster Nova, who’s ex-wife/baby mama went bonkers thanks to an opal, has been trying to convince Smokin’ Sartan not to go after one for quite a while. So far he’s convinced Smokin’ Sartan to put it off. Sartan is not one of the most recent challenges but has continued to discuss the possibility.
The Baron Cassius chose a single match format match after declaring his loyalty to the current Overlord, Tical. However, Tical did not intercede nor did Cassius ask him to do so. The match remained neck in neck until the end when S.P.G. Teagan pulled away for the win. Cassius took the loss on the chin and didn’t seem too terribly upset. In fact, he was overheard saying that if he hadn’t have lost this barony he would have no way of attempting to tie Cletus Ganderfald’s record of most baronies held. In fact, it was Teagan who actually seemed irritated at the end of the match when there was some issues about her loyalty. The Overlord, Tical, advised her that he did not care if she went renegade or loyal and it seemed as if Teagan would go renegade until her friend, Maria, asked her to go loyal. Teagan go loyal did but it led to what appeared to be a not so friendly conversation between the two Crew members, Tical and Maria. We’re not really sure what loyalty means to S.P.G. Teagan anyway since she’s not even exactly loyal to the people she’s sleeping with. Guess we’ll see!
Congratulations to the new Baroness of Dragon’s Gate, Teagan!
