• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Novelux Smokestack Hostel & Bar

    Visible relief slipped through Gladion’s attempt at maintaining an even demeanour. “It’s an opportunity we need. But… the similarities aren’t lost on me either. I’m of the belief it can go differently for us because we’ve got someone high up who actively wants us to spy on the Coven, and is...

    Magna City Shining Congress – Main Lobby

    The Shining Congress got under Gladion’s skin almost immediately. This was a mistake. He’d been right the first time: He should never have come here. Never should’ve changed his mind. The simple fact was that he didn’t belong in places like this. He’d tried desperately to do so before only to...

    Novelux Smokestack Hostel & Bar

    “I mean…” (There wasn’t really anything he wanted to tell Valere at all. There was, however, something he probably had to.) “I guess there’s something you should know about.” He still hadn’t decided how he wanted to frame the situation. Maybe that was fine. Maybe that was what it meant to avoid...

    Offscreen Activities

    Gladion is there for the Escarpa party. He needs the break between this and tackling all the other stuff on his to-do list. As much as his instinct is to hunker down and isolate when he's stressed, he also knows some good food and company would be better for him than doing that. Hell, he didn't...

    Novelux Smokestack Hostel & Bar

    Gladion tried to act like he wasn't morbidly curious about the history between Valere and Matthias to a degree that would be socially inappropriate, despite the fact that this was very much the reality. Luckily, he was able to keep his cool. "Lose what? Was he actually interested in fighting the...

    Gladion nodded, faintly smiling at the recognition of what they had accomplished. This was the best reception that he had realistically expected. "I think you're correct, about our numbers safeguarding us. It's hard to control the ideology of someone you can't isolate from outside opinions...

    Novelux Smokestack Hostel & Bar

    Clearly, Gladion's first mistake looking for Valere was expecting him to use the door like a normal person. Guy knew how to make an entrance. Should've been clear to him by now. "No rest for the wicked, you know how it is." (He successfully avoided scoffing at himself.) "In all seriousness...

    Novelux Smokestack Hostel & Bar

    The world wasn't ending anymore, but that didn't mean Gladion had room to breathe for a bit. No. That would be too damn easy. Not only was Blackglass Caldera something he had to make sure happened, he also had to deal with Valere. He firmly believed he'd done nothing wrong, but still couldn't...

    Malantau Terminal One

    “Suppose that’s our cue to clear out, then? Don’t reckon any of us should go on a one way trip to your world.” They probably already have a Gladion. It felt right to say something, even if he wasn’t really the sentimental type. At least not for people who he wasn’t that close with. “Seth...

    Malantau Terminal One

    "Because..." Was Lusamine really a dimensional threat, though? If they were worried about that kinda stuff, why wouldn't they have lost interest when his dad became lost? Then, another piece clicked. Cosmog. "Because she— um, the woman I was heir to— held onto a creature that posed a...

    Malantau Terminal One

    Interpol? Given the scope the Cipher problem seemed to be reaching, it made perfect sense. Whatever Orrean law enforcement existed was not gonna be able to handle them. They were probably already compromised. Being an interdimensional threat definitely qualified them as an international threat...

    Malantau Terminal One

    Oh, so Eldes was old enough to ‘young man’ him, apparently. It was hard to tell with Ninetales. Gladion wasn’t unaware that it was unusual for him to have gotten out as early as he had, but it was the kind of thing that was easy to forget with everything else he was keeping track of during an...

    Malantau Terminal One

    “And good riddance,” Gladion whispered, not quite looking to project enthusiasm about Nascour’s death but nonetheless knowing he’d worry less for Seth and his world with the his demise. If anyone he’d met in Forlas had it coming, it was definitely Nascour. (Or really it was Alexander...

    Malantau Terminal One

    Gladion's smile was subtle even back home, and more opaque on an avian face, but the expression in his eyes was clearly readable as such when he saw Eldes break free. Given he'd immediately found it in him to attack Ardos, it'd probably been a long time coming, but it was still nice to play a...

    Malantau Terminal One

    The force of Eldes' mental intrusion made Gladion's head burn, his vision blur. His first instinct was to try to clamp down his psyche, keep Eldes from accessing anything private, but there was little he could. He'd opened a link with Eldes voluntarily, and there was little he could do to stop...

    Malantau Terminal One

    Gladion scattered as Alexander appeared. Too soon. They weren't ready yet. Nascour had also snagged the Lycases without any of them being able to so much as scratch him. It was all too much, everything was going fully to hell... But they couldn't afford to fold, either. Gladion couldn't...

    Malantau Terminal One

    It had been a while since Gladion had really cared about trying to channel his strength into allies or whatever the hell he used to do when he first arrived, but given that trying to trap himself alone in a room with the Void Swarm seemed like the worst fucking idea he’d have ever had, it seemed...

    Malantau Terminal One

    If Gladion was still a normal human with hands, he’d have put one on Sage’s shoulder or something normal like that. But he wasn’t equipped for such a gesture, so he just nodded. “Thank you, Sage. You’ve made a lot of progress, I know you’re ready for this.” He didn’t think it would be easy for...

    Gladion laughed, welcoming a diversion from whatever Nova was alluding to. “Could always try just hitting it repeatedly. See how long it takes! And yeah. I’ll keep an eye on Sage. Won’t let anyone hurt them, I swear it.” He felt like he could say that with more confidence now. Nothing they’d...

    Frontier Town Frontier Town Outskirts

    Oh, that sounded suspicious. Was there something he should know about? Gladion went over his mental list of Wayfarers, trying to figure out who Nova was talking about. Probably not Archie, he may have been a sorta bounty hunter-y sort, but his past seemed clean. Gladion'd gotten secrets from...
