This next podpop will be the one of short people!

[dragonspooker]

Greetings, meatship - Wingus here (Shoutarou, Simon, Veronica), with character number four: Lina Inverse, of Slayers! She's short of stature, short of temper, and very prone to overreacting violently if you manage to press one of her many, many berserk buttons - often by blasting you with a spell or few. And so, if there's anyone who wants to opt out of her magical wrath and instead just get verbal wrath, I do have a permissions post for that.

For those familiar with the canon, she's coming in from just after the third season, and will be very displeased to find out all that work she's done over those adventures will have amounted to a fat lot of nothing.

That said, any volunteers among the current crew who want to get shaken down by Lina when the meet'n'greet happens? She will want to know just what the hell is going on. Or she might yell at Stacy if I can wrangle someone for that.

Hello.

Let's be short, angry mages together.

[dragonspooker]

Yessss, let us.

[angrynubs]

I feel like this could be the start of a beautiful friendship.

[dragonspooker]

Either that, or a beautiful loudness.

[17thangel]

What if you're willing to sign up for Bunny Slipper beatings?

[dragonspooker]

Then...erm... I'm afraid I don't follow.

[17thangel]

The bunny slipper Lina pounded Gourry and Amelia with when she got sick of blowing them up with magic.

[dragonspooker]

Okay, I am blanking hardcore - when did that happen? 'Cause if it was in Revolution or Evolution-R, I'm not quite to them yet, ahahah...

[17thangel]

The novels and Slayers Royal games.

[hit_girl_mindy]

I am totally excited by this!

Honestly, I hope to throw both my girls (Kaya and hit girl) at her somehow, though she can't hate Mindy so much since she runs the cafe she's likely to visit,

[dragonspooker]

She can hate Mindy whenever she inevitably cuts Lina off before she eats through the entire food supply, though!

[hit_girl_mindy]

Oh yeah, that is SO happening!

Consequently, is this Lina after Slayers Try (which I'm in the process of finishing)?

[dragonspooker]

Yep, from shortly after Try. Gonna be cranky that all those times of saving the world were worth a whole lot of nothin'.

[hit_girl_mindy]

Aw, poor Lina. And no Gourry either.

[dragonspooker]

Yeah. Though, who knows, I might be able to change that later on down the line with a little luck and a lot of enabling.

[hit_girl_mindy]

That would be awesome, and then we have an Amelia blathering about justice from atop a platform with weird squiggles on her finger^-^

[dragonspooker]

If I didn't have my quota of HEROES OF JUSTICE filled with Shou and Simon, I would have totally apped Amelia, actually! I'd love to have her around as well, though. Definitely my favorite among the party.
