Nightmyste and Genesis4, it looks like.

[Kenji]

Obviously codenames. Unless their parents were sick individuals...

[Jack McSlay]

yesh likely... it's gonna be very interesting seeing abel trying to make up some conversation 

[Zedd]

Its good to see old faces...

[Stygian]

YES! Dan's not the screw-up here!

[Kenji]

yesh likely... it's gonna be very interesting seeing abel trying to make up some conversation 

Not unless they have mind blockers or Abel's a forgetful lil dipstick. o:

Hope Abel doesnt blow it ^^; Other than he's already screwed enough as it is...

[Aridas]

Abelitz has some quick thinking to do to keep his cover... But damnit, he just had to go thinking about things and jinxing it, didn't he? >.>

[Hilary]

Time for Abel to either:

a) do some pretty skillful BS-ing

b) do some pretty speedy mind-reading

c) do some pretty speedy bopping-the-adventurers-on-the-head and then running away-ing


Or he could just own up. But that doesn't seem very Abel-y to me...

[RJ]

Scream and run away sounds like a good plan...

d) pretend to have amnesia

[Hilary]

Abelitz: *screams and runs away*

Nightmyst: Perhaps he needed a longer vacation...

[Aisha deCabre]

I instantly recognized the possibility that it could be Nitemyst upon looking at the fact of going through the archives.

But MAN, what a surprise.  Never thought for a moment that Merlitz' old party would show up again.   

[Roureem Egas]

So many things I could say, yet all I can come up with is "This ought to be fun." And it looks like we'll have a few anecdotes about Merlitz's career. Or some other kind of backstory anyway.

Little Able Froo Froo, hopping through the forest..

Let's see how that one goes.

[Alan Garou]

Poor, poor Dan. Even when he does something right, everything manages to screw itself up. Wonder how Abelitz is going to squirm his way out of this...

Yay! New icons! Go forward, my robot and sheep army, and conquer!
   

[Zedd]

I would say..Ummm..I got a bad cold and I dont want anyone to touch me so...Thats why I cant talk...Umm yeah

[Toric]

Abel just needs to say four words to solve this dilemma.

"Look out! A human!"

"Oh, you're still going on about that..... We'll.. uh... we'll see you around. Enjoy your extended vacation! (Smile and walk away slowly. Smile and walk away slowly."

[Cogidubnus]

How would Abel know to say that, though? He knows nothing about Merlitz.

[DigitalMan]

Oh good, I was wondering what she meant.

And Abel could probably get out of this easily with mind-reading. Question is, is his head clear enough to think of the idea? He seems to be panicking.

[bill]

And Abel could probably get out of this easily with mind-reading.

Not really. I doubt Mr. Myst here's going to be giving Abel a pop quiz on how Merlitz is. I mean, how do you mindread the answer to "So, how've you been?"

[Alondro]

*Charline hmms*  Meh, Abel can pretend to be Merlitz' secret identical twin brother who took his place after Merlitz was squished by an evil dragon.  They'll buy it, and Abel hates dragons so he'd be glad to pin the blame on one... likely Pyro.    

[Akisohida]

I love his look in the last panel. He could always pretend to be Merlitz's evil twin and chase them off? Or act like he is busy with the tour and run to Dan for help? Or pretend he does not know english! Abelitz: 'Ik spreek het geen Engels!' *Flees!*

Curse you, Charline! You took my twin idea while I was typing! *Chases Charline around, knowing how she fears spiders!*

[superluser]

Curse you, Charline! You took my twin idea while I was typing! *Chases Charline around, knowing how she fears spiders!*

I think everybody had that idea.

[Wanderer]

HA! It IS the old adventuring party! I guessed right! *celebrates*

Ahem. It's been a LONG time. I'm surprised, given Amber's opinion of her early art, that she'd want to remind herself of those ancient days.

Poor Abel... And poor Merlitz! He's missing out on this reunion!

[Toric]

How would Abel know to say that, though? He knows nothing about Merlitz.

Pure, dumb luck, of course.

[GabrielsThoughts]

It's the worst haircut ever!!!

seriously, is that the fellah from the merlitz meets a human thread?

[superluser]

Not really. I doubt Mr. Myst here's going to be giving Abel a pop quiz on how Merlitz is. I mean, how do you mindread the answer to "So, how've you been?"

Pretty easy.  You say, ``Oh, you know,'' then give a knowing and slightly self-deprecating laugh.  Then you say, ``But you!  I mean, just look at you.''

[Regal]

Keeping quiet and letting the other guy talk could be a good defense. Or steering the converation to general all purpose meaningless small talk. The trouble there is I don't think Abel is the type to be good at small talk.

[Sunny]

Hah, it's good to see old faces again.  Oh and peoples, those are real people from Furcadia, the game Amber used to base this off of, so no, those aren't codenames, those are their actual screennames.   
Here's hoping Misha aka Skirmish makes an appearance with Nitemyste and Gen.

It'll be funny seeing how Abel tries to crawl his way out of it.  I personally think that they'll think he's insane from the human encounter. Abel will use this to squirm out of personal conversations aka " So how's the mom?  Still got the psoriasis?"
