Hours upon hours have passed since Lulu the Disguised Sorceress spoke with Teemo, so far all she did was play tic-tac-toe with Pix over and over again until, like a overpressured steam pipe, she snapped
"aaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! WHY IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING GOING ON!!! IS this really the PRICE of a PEACEFUL CITY?? NO EXCITEMENT??!!"
Pix tries his hardest to calm Lulu down, but at that moment, Lulu's mustache fell from her face as she stamped her foot down. Many Yordles turned to look at source of the noise only to have their collective jaw's drop in shock as they beheld the Fae Sorceress. Finally, one yordle began screaming
"OH GODS ITS THE CHILD SNATCHER!!! HIDE YOUR CHILDREN AND RUUUUUN!!!"
The center of the city seemed to spontaniously light up in panic as both Lulu and Pix stand there in surprise
"oh dear...."
its no doubt that the Megling Commandos and the Scouts of the Mothership will be called because of Lulu's appearance
You find us funny, do you not? A source of amusement. Is that not so? With our pretty clothes, and our convoluted circumlocutions and our little silliness of manner and behavior. And perhaps we are funny... But you must never imagine, that just because something is funny,it is not dangerous.
The mayor smiles and seems to calm, nodding to Poppy knowingly.
"Yes, I do remember what that was all about... and I see, just like Bandle, you haven't changed much, Ambassador. For your next anniversary, I know just what we'll do. But it's a secret! One that you'll just have to wait and find out."
He chuckles a little to himself, patting Poppy's shoulder.
Poppy nods at the mayor before standing up again.
"I suppose so. For now, I shall visit my old home... and perhaps clean up. I believe the old forge has not been lit up in ages and the whole room it is in is covered in dust... both regular and coal."
The mayor chuckles to himself for no apparent reason when Poppy mentions her home. He stamps his cane on the floor a few times and clears his throat.
"Then it's settled! Now, go, go! Shoo! Enjoy your time off, Ambassador! Heehee, and whatever you do, try not to-"
It was at this moment when the mayor hears the commotion outside and moves towards the entrance to hear more.
"What in the name of the Mothership is going on out here?!"
It only takes him a moment to spot Lulu in the town square. He immediately calls for the town guards to retrieve the sorceress and bring her to the town hall. She was going to have to see him face-to-face this time, and he'd make sure she understood the rules of her banishment.

The door to the mayor's door opens as Lulu and Two Yordle Guards came in. Both of the guards look agitated while Lulu herself looks absolutely chipper
"-and THEN yesterday PIX caught a FLY that WAS about THIIIIS big and put a SADDLE on IT!! they both FLEW together LIKE a KID and his PET UNICORN!!"
Lulu notices Mayor Jadefellow and smiles widely
"HELLO MISTER...uh....hmmmmmm.....uuuhhh who ARE you??"
The sorceress scratches her head in confusion

Poppy nods at the Mayor before wordlessly turning around and walking out the building. Usually, she would have sticked around to see what was going on with the Fae Sorceress, but right now she just wanted to return to her father's old smithinghouse and rest... if you can call it resting. Her plans were cleaning up the smithy and firing up the forge to see if her skills had rusted and to work on them.

The mayor furrows his brow and growls faintly as the sorceress approaches him. It irritates him even more that she doesn't recognize him.
"I, miss Lulu, am the mayor of our city, and I believe we asked some time ago that you leave the Yordle Lands. You've just caused far too much chaos to be deemed safe. Honestly, taking children away and turning them into flowers? Urf... this is your one and only warning. Either get out of Bandle City, or prove to us that you will not be causing any kind of trouble again. One wrong step, and you will be out of here! Is that understood, young lady?"
He pounds his cane on the floor a few times for good measure, as well as to release some of his anger.

"psshhhaaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHHAHAAHAHAA!!!"
Lulu wipes a tear away from her eye that was caused by her laughter
"'Asked to leave' YOU say. ALL i remember WAS being SURROUNDED by town GUARDS and MEGLING commandos BEFORE being 'asked to leave'! YOU make it SOUND LIKE you invited ME for TEA and CAKES before ASKING!! speaking OF cake....
Lulu looks around the room before spotting a brown book on one of the bookcases. The sorceress aims her wand at the book before shouting
TRANSMOGULATE
The book morphs into a colorful cupcake. Lulu picks up the cupcake before continuing her conversation.
"AND also-*munch*- YOU'RE making option ONE seem VERY atractive TO ME right now!! what HAPPENED to THIS city??? everyone HERE is soooo QUIET and...*shutter-...PEACEFUL!! i REMEMBER when this PLACE was sooooo MUCH FUN!! how DID it become SO BORING??"
Lulu's tone sounds almost accusitory at this point

The mayor huffs and glares at Lulu, pointing his cane at her.
"That book was our last copy of my autobiography! Oooooooo!!! Get OUT of here, you WITCH!!! And don't come back or so help me I will have you locked up in a boring, old, empty cell two hundred feet below ground so you'll have nothing to do ever again!"
He stamps his cane on the floor hard enough to make a small crater, and this time four guards move to escort Lulu away, one attempting to take her scepter, two lifting her by the shoulders, and one trying to catch Pix with a butterfly net. The mayor is still bickering to himself.
"Bandle City boring?! How preposterous! She is just way too crazy for healthy living."
Post by The Fae Sorceress on Jan 5, 2013 12:55:27 GMT -5
Lulu waited until the last moment before the guards came close to her before yelling out in an unnaturally clear voice
"TOUCH ME OR PIX AND YOU SURRENDER YOUR VERY FORM TO THE CUDDLY SQUIRRELS OF THIS WORLD!!!"
The guards halted in place and backed away very slowly. Lulu on the other hand simply glares at the Mayor
"hmph!! you don't HAVE THE slightest IDEA on HOW to treat A LADY do you?? and YOU know what?? FINE!!! this PLACE is STUPID anyway!! im GONNA go to VEIGAR'S place NOW! im POSITIVE that HE'S MUCH more FUN then ANY of YOU BLAND Yordles ANYWAY!!"
Lulu magically amplifies her voice, making sure that everyone in Bandle City can hear her
"YOU HEAR THAT BANDLE CITY?? YOU'RE BLAND AS ALL HELL!!!!"
Lulu glares at the mayor one last time before walking up to him and poking him in the chest maliciously
"And if you DARE threaten ME or PIX again, i WILL make SURE that YOU WILL end UP ON MY DESERT PLATE!!"
With that, Lulu turns around and walks away from the mayor with dignity. She now wants nothing more then to get out and find Veigar's hideaway in search of entertainment

After making her way far enough from the Town Hall, Poppy stops at the fountain in the middle of the city and looks into the waters. She sighs and thinks about the last time she actually was home without any need to think about work. It was all the way back years ago before that fateful delivery that took her father's life.
Back then she wasn't a all-serious diplomat and warrior. She was just a simple yordle girl, daughter of a blacksmith. Not necessarily like other girls her age, instead of playing with dolls and making wreaths out of daisies, she was working in the heat of the forge, happy and smiling as her father guided her hand. Such happier times...
She keeps staring into the waters thoughtfully, for now.

The mayor doesn't respond, simply giving Lulu a steely glare as she walks away. He was smart enough to know that threatening the sorceress was dangerous business, but he had to just enough to get her out of town. Although... the business with Veigar could prove very dangerous for the town. He walks over to one of the officials in the building, whispering to her.
"I want you to get a small research team and follow miss Lulu. Study her... and hopefully we can find a way to either keep her out of here permanently or subdue her in some way where she won't be a threat to the city. Go, hurry! And be wary of Veigar! She is supposedly going off to find his location!"
The official scurries away, off to find some papers before addressing the issue to the Scouts of the Mothership, for she knew that this squad wouldn't get far without one of their members. Perhaps she would also try and get assistance from the Megling Commandos as well.
The mayor returns to his desk, busily scribbling down an agenda for the next week and wondering what he'll do now that his autobiography is no more.

Poppy moves away from the fountain, raising her gaze up to it's normal level. She continues walking slowly through the City, looking at it closely as she has not seen it in a fairly long amount of time.
The yordles she passes turn to look at her, surprised to see the Ambassador in Bandle City. A small group of children huddle up close together and start whispering to each other before one walks forward with a paper and a pencil.
"Umm... miss Ambassador, can I have an autograph?"
Poppy looks at the young child, her look staying it's usual serious one but her gaze being softer than usual as she takes the pen and paper, writing an autograph and handing it back to the child.
"There you go..."
She the continues her walk thoughtfully, not paying much attention to anything but the City and the path she is walking.
...and that is where Vadata and Rodutin lie. Their lives clinging to their moment, as each of them closes their eyes.
And that's when little Admiral Titus Flavius close his book. The writing style is horrible and there was little to no romantic moments. Titus crave for those, the intimacies, the breakups, the feelings, and he did not get any of those. He throws the book away to the trash in disguist. 75 gold coins on the "best selling romantic novel" is a waste of money. He looks at the fountain and gains inspiration to look at his astronomy journal again. He takes out his pen that looks like a wand and his journal and resumes mapping his astronomical map again.
He misses the life in the Navy. As much as he loves the peace and the cheery atmosphere Bandle City offers, he admires the smell of gunpower and the thunderous sound of cannons booming across ship to ship while the blood of his enemies spill-
-Geez! Now he remembers why he prefers peace. Being an admiral is great and stinks. Usually after a "normal" naval battle, he constantly remembers the smell of gunpowder and the rotting corpses that has to dispose. Even more morbid is that his crew die of wounds rather than in battle. Worse than losing a comrade are the letters...the letters that he depressingly writes to the families. And following the letters are the criticism as well. "Admiral Flavius is brutal, Admiral Flavius should be fired, Admiral Flavius murdered my husband..." were the common words the little admiral would hear after a naval battle.
He closes the book and tucks it in his uniform and his wand inside his sleeves. Even after the potential consequences he might face from the dead sailors to the letters and the harsh words, Titus is not deterred by his willingness to serve Bandle City. Proud and patriotic, he walks into the Town Hall and sees a receptionist in the front. He approaches her and asks.
"Umm...is the mayor here? I wanna know if he has anything for me."
He's hoping for a mission of some sort. If nothing is there, then he's going back to his house to map out a section of the night sky.
((Well here we go! Don't think of Titus from the LoL forums. I'm going to develop the newly redone Titus Flavius and start him from scratch.))

The receptionist glances away from her work for a moment, nodding to the admiral in greeting. She didn't waste time with formal greetings, for she spent every day with Bandle officials and new every one of their faces by heart.
"I'm afraid the mayor is not in currently. He was called away to a meeting at the Institute quite recently, but should be returning soo-"
She's cut off by the mayor himself, stepping up behind Yoshi.
"Good morning, Nellie. I see you kept everything in order while I was gone. However, there is trouble brewing outside of Bandle... and we have preparations to make! An expedition to Icathia is being held, and we must send two of the league champions to represent us on that expedition. I already have who to send in mind, but first I want to make sure the city will be safe enough without them. Call back all of the scouts and Megling units that are out patroling, and notify the Screaming Yipsnakes that their services may be required in a few days. A meeting is going to be held here, and that is what we must prepare for."
He turns, not having noticed the admiral next to him until now. Giving a short bow, the mayor extends his hand in greeting.
"Ah, yes, good to see you Titus. I need you to do me a favor and call in our naval units as soon as possible. We'll need to be watching the oceans for some of our guests who will be arriving by sea."
"Icathia!? Sending two of our greatest warriors to...Icathia!?" Yoshi objected in his mind. He can't imagine the Swift Scout and the Megling Gunner buried in a casket while the yordles weep in sorrow. Worse is that if the Iron Ambassador is sent...Titus may lose his political ally. He isn't good in politics and he usually has Poppy do it. What about the Screaming Yipsnakes and that Daring Bombardier? Maybe he did not like Bandle City joining the League but he will hate sending off two great talented yordles to their deaths. "Send Lulu and Veigar instead...it won't matter what happens to them! Or Amumu since he's immortal anyways...."
And the guests. Who are they? Must be important. Maybe League officials and sort. Leaders too? Titus doesn't know.
He extends his hands out to the Mayor and shakes it zealously. Then he pridefully salutes him, with a gleaming smile on his face.
"Welcome back Mayor! I didn't know that you were gone. I'll bring back as much ships as I can to patrol our coasts. We'll be extra vigilant! And just wondering, who are the guests?"
