Endrik's church had no rules against such things. The actual answer was much simpler.

I never had anyone to do it with.

Artemis97
2009-09-19, 02:07 AM
That actually surprised Sszinyon, and a troubled expression of disbelief crossed her face. Had he never found love before? It was tragic, except...

The Drowess smiles, revealing long fangs and pointed teeth. "Well, now you do."

Destro_Yersul
2009-09-19, 02:31 AM
It was true. Endrik's only love had been, for the longest time, the church. The church and his goddess. Everything he did was for them. He had few friends, and most of them were members of the church as well.

Sszy had changed that.

Yes. Now I do. Endrik stopped walking for a moment, turning to face her. He reached up with his free hand, traced along her cheek with one finger, watching her eyes as he did so.

Artemis97
2009-09-19, 02:41 AM
She leaned her head against Endrik's hand, but her looked into his. The drowess lifted a hand to run her fingers through his hair and, perhaps, pull him just a bit closer.

Destro_Yersul
2009-09-19, 02:51 AM
Just a bit closer is liable to turn into a whole lot closer. Endrik has slipped both arms around her now, drawing her near. He leans in close, kissing her lightly.

Artemis97
2009-09-19, 03:29 AM
Sszinyon pushes herself up on her toes in an attempt to get even closer to him. She wraps her arms around his neck and deepens the kiss.

Dorotha is still in Erin's Emporium, waiting for Erin and looking around the place curiously.

[Abandoned Park]

Rayum the kobold has been a bust lately working on his carvings finishing his third now. He occasionally heads out finding some food to rotten for the others who search the streets for their food. He is slowly recovering from his wounds though still isn't at full health.

Earl of Purple
2009-09-19, 02:24 PM
Erin's Emporium

Lieutenant Gruesome undeadtimes, pays and makes to leave with his much-shortened Jaffa Staff. Before he leaves, he turns to Dorotha "If ever you need a job, there is a mountain in the wilderness of Outside where my master, The Earl, lives. He may give you a job. He might not, but he may." Then the kobold leaves and wanders away.

Crissy smiles and handles the transactions, and hands over the appropriately-shortened bonus Ori Staff. Come see us again!

[K-Corp Headquarters]

There's an ISF APC approaching the K-Corp building.

...this can't be good.

Ashen Lilies
2009-09-19, 09:19 PM
[K-Corp]

The gates at the front open of their own accord, inviting the APC into the main complex. It's green around the road, or at least, as green as one can be in the middle of the city, with several replicant animals walking around. The building looms above them, like a temple to the gods. The main double doors are open, and there are two robot guards and one of those greeter people.

Darkcomet
2009-09-19, 09:24 PM
[K-Corp]

The APC comes to a halt after heading inside. A fairly nondescript man in a suit, obviously a representative of some sort, and two standard ISF soldiers climb out, the latter two flanking the representative as he approaches the greeter person. "Who would we go to to turn in a request for new equipment?"

Oh dear. This is bad.

Ashen Lilies
2009-09-19, 09:27 PM
[K-Corp]

"That would be me."
Says a man who is somehow behind him. He has brown hair, stunning features, and a very nice suit.

Darkcomet
2009-09-19, 09:39 PM
[K-Corp]

Oh dear.

The representative turns around, seeming unfazed.. His escorts seem more than a little uneasy now, too.

"Right, then." He pulls out two papers and tries to hand them to the Suddenly-There-Guy.

They read:


The ISF is in need of additions to its arsenal. Requested specifically are:

A new helicopter-type aircraft
Anti-vehicle and anti-aircraft weapons for the soldiers
Anti-riot gear
A new armor type for special operations, such as stealth missions



Lord Vyrn fears assassination attempts and requires a new sidearm. No specifications were given other than 'not another tank-busting pistol, please'.

Ashen Lilies
2009-09-19, 10:07 PM
"We'll ship them to you later."

Darkcomet
2009-09-19, 10:10 PM
[K-Corp]

"Excellent. We shall be off, then." The representative gives a slight bow, and unless they're stopped, he and his escorts will climb back in the APC and leave.

McBish
2009-09-19, 10:42 PM
Rayum the small kobold sneaks back to his abandoned park his stomach growling as he goes. Once he is back he unwraps a small piece of very hard bread and starts to eat it slowly.

[BOP Crater]

The soldier sighs. "It exploded. The base is in ruins, along with most everything around it."

"alright... commander ain't gonna like this one bit..."

Club 30's
Layla is here, plotting, no doubt. But finally she climbs onto the stage and begins singing, quietly strumming a guitar. It's an escape for her, as well as entertainment for the men gathered in the bar.

"I'm so tired of being here
Surpressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here, and it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I wiped away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
I'd have held you hand through all of our years
But you still have...all of me."

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 09:22 AM
Once the song is over, she might see Grant clapping, he looks different, like he was freed from the planar's control but half of his mind was still sealed away.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 09:29 AM
Club 30's
Layla descends from the stage and approaches Grant. "Hi. You look better."

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 09:31 AM
Half of my mind was freed.

Grant says, smiling.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 09:37 AM
Layla sits down and smiles. "Good. I'm happy for you. Your sister seems nice. Jack-" She coughs quietly. "Sorry I didn't help."

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 09:38 AM
Like I said, half of my mind was freed. If you want to help you can.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 09:44 AM
Layla frowns slightly. "I sort of have a lot going on right now, Grant. How long will this take?"

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 09:45 AM
It took Pesty like ten minutes tops.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 09:49 AM
Layla nods and stands. "Come into the office for some privacy, please." She heads for the VIP room.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 09:49 AM
Grant walks into the VIP room.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 09:52 AM
Layla closes the door and takes a seat. She crosses her legs and looks Grant over. "What do I need to do?"

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 09:52 AM
Grant just hums and the room should transform into a large room where Lee and May are standing, waiting for Layla.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 09:56 AM
Layla blinks, her back-up plan with guns and escape hatch gone. She smiles faintly and nods at the girls planars. "Hello." The last time she saw May, Jack was still alive... Layla blinks back some tears before they can fall down her cheeks.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 10:00 AM
Lee is a dude.:smalltongue:

May smiles brightly at Layla and walks over to the large door.

This is the part of big brother's mind that is accessible only to you. We need you to open the door.

FireFox
2009-09-20, 10:00 AM
In order to get a better feel for the Rebellion's condition, Douglas tries to walk into the deepest gang-controlled section of the city. He looks like a lost teacher.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 10:07 AM
No one at Club 30's will allow Douglas entry. Unless Miya shows up and decides to let him in. No one gets in without the boss lady's permission and she's...occupied.

Layla nods and steps in front of the door, rubbing her hands together, not sure what to expect. "Alright."

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 10:10 AM
The door opens to a long hallway. If layla walks into the room, she will probably notice that the room causes people to feel happy, sad and pain at the same time.

FireFox
2009-09-20, 10:10 AM
Douglas doesn't even try to enter there, just walking around that part of the city, acting completely lost, observing everything.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 10:15 AM
Not much to see downtown, actually. It's pretty quiet, save for a few kids running around shooting cap guns at each other and playing war.

Layla steps into the room and winces as she is hit with the barrage of emotions. She presses a hand to her temple and advances further, looking around curiously.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 10:18 AM
At the end of the hallway is another door. If layla walks towards the door she might notice that the emotions become positive. Happy, caring, slightly silly.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 10:39 AM
Smiling faintly, Layla approaches the door and tries to open it.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 10:42 AM
The door opens and she will probably see copies of all Grant's friends. Including Layla, Marle, Angie, Lee, May, Pesty, and everyone else. Basically everyone that Grant knows.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 10:50 AM
Layla looks at the faces and wonders if they are the cause of the happy feeling in the room.

...also, is there a copy of Jack in there?

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 10:55 AM
If she moves closer to each dummy she will notice that each one seems to radiate different emotions. The copies of Marle, Layla and Pesty might cause Layla to feel caring and happiness.

The copy of Jack radiates no emotions.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 10:58 AM
Still, Layla has to pause before her husband. Without thinking, she reaches for him, her hand trembling. "What am I supposed to do?" She could be asking Jack OR Grant. Her voice is a choked whisper.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 11:03 AM
Layla might notice that the copy of Jack seems to be facing the copy of Layla, they all seem to just be statues.


It would be a good idea if Layla tried to talk to the copy of Grant sitting in the middle of the room.

McBish
2009-09-20, 11:09 AM
[Abandoned Park]

Rayum the kobold stays in his park finishing off his latest carving. He collapses onto the ground after finishing it slowly drifting off to sleep that h has been lacking for awhile.

[Streets]

A couple of young men are out and about searching for where the government keeps weapons and what not.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 11:13 AM
Layla forces down the tears building in her eyes and steps over to the Grant copy.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 11:17 AM
Hello.


The copy of Grant says.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 11:21 AM
Layla forces a calm smile onto her face. "Hello, Grant. You seem to be the odd one out here. The only one who speaks." She resists the urge to look over her shoulder at the Jack copy.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 11:23 AM
I'm sorry. I really am. I might be able to let them wake up though.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 11:24 AM
Layla frowns slightly. "No need to be sorry. What IS this place? I don't understand it at all. This is INSIDE your mind?"

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 11:27 AM
Yes. This is my perception of everyone. That is why people usually feel happy around Pesty, you and your sister. Because, I am happy to be around you.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 11:33 AM
Layla forces a smile. "People aren't happy around me anymore, Grant. Jack's gone, Howl...Howl better not come back. I'm...I'm not a happy person to be around right now."

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 11:40 AM
Neither am I.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 12:44 PM
Grant's Mind
Layla appears sympathetic. "How can I help?"

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 12:46 PM
The person who's mind this is only needs for someone to be there to talk to.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 01:09 PM
Layla folds her legs under her and sits on the floor. "So talk. Tell me what's going on, why you wanted to help so much that you became a problem." A hesitant smile.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 01:22 PM
I don't know... I literally needed to help you for some reason.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 01:30 PM
Layla reaches for the Grant copy's arm and grabs it gently. "Thank you for wanting to help. And I'm sorry that it seemed to be part of the cause for this. I hate that."

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 01:36 PM
I am sorry about Jack.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 01:39 PM
Layla shakes her head. "No. You're not. But that's OK - not everyone could love him like I do. Did." She stares down at her hands, at the two rings on her left hand and the one on her right. Which she really needs to get rid of at some point.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 01:47 PM
The copy of Grant sighs.

I suppose not.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 01:49 PM
Layla speaks slowly, the words difficult to speak. "Much as I loved him...I didn't always agree with his decisions. But I went along with them because that was my duty as his wife, and I wanted to see him happy. I was sure that the ends would justify the means, you know?"

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 01:51 PM
I understand.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 01:52 PM
Layla looks up, her eyes grateful. "Good. I'm glad. How's the house working out?" She smiles a little.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 01:55 PM
It's a bit lonely by myself but other then that it is okay.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 02:01 PM
Layla nods. "I know the feeling." And she does. "So...how does this help the real you?"

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 02:07 PM
As he is about to answer the planar trying to control him appears and at the same time Grant has an attack.

McBish
2009-09-20, 02:10 PM
[Abandoned Park]

Rayum wakes up slowly feeling weak. He gets up and heads into the streets.

[Streets]

Rayum moves carefully, he sees a small water fountain and after checking to see that no one is around runs over to it to get some water to drink.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 02:13 PM
Grant's Mind
Layla gasps and jumps to her feet to help Grant.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 02:15 PM
Grant slowly rises to his feet, he turns to face the planar.


I...have only one question.

Grant draws the katana he received for his birthday.

Can I destroy him?

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 02:21 PM
Grant's Mind
Layla tilts her head, confused. "The...the planar? Of course you can. You were made to fight - and win. I know you can beat him, Grant."

Neon Knight
2009-09-20, 02:24 PM
[Streets]

Erin leads May torwards home. May might notice she seems to be taking the long way...

And so they go home, regardless of how long it takes.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 02:25 PM
Without even waiting Grant is already sending slashes that are so fast that the eye can barely follow. The planar is able to defend himself but is freaked out by the fact that Grant is also laughing, he's having fun. Then again this was what he was made for after all, it is natural that he would have fun.

Layla said I was allowed to destroy you.



So I don't need to hold back.


Aw, ain't that cute.

The planar said as he continued trying to defend himself from Grant's attack.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 02:27 PM
Grant's Mind
Layla, looking around for how she can help Grant, sees the Jack copy again, holding the hand of her own twin. She smiles sadly, then a cold, determined grimace takes its place. She pulls her gun, and begins stalking towards the planar. Maybe her bullets can't hurt him, but hopefully they can distract him and give Grant the opportunity he needs. She tries to sneak up behind the evil planar.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 02:30 PM
The planar will try to send a kick to Layla that should send her flying if it hits.

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 02:37 PM
Layla dodges the kick, flinging herself backwards. She levels the gun at the thing's head and squeezes the trigger.

DoomITP
2009-09-20, 02:40 PM
(deadtime for awhile. Be back soon hopefully.)

Dirk Kris
2009-09-20, 02:42 PM
((it's alright, I have to go too))

Erin and May are still walking home the long way. Probably getting close now, though.


[Elsewhere on the streets]

Dani, wearing that hot pink halter crop top, denim hot pants, and black leather boots, heads out of the Taverna and starts exploring.

McBish
2009-09-20, 02:55 PM

Rayum finishes drinking at the water fountain in the street and starts searching for food to have.

NK says that they're there already. He feels this is taking too long.

The Bushranger
2009-09-20, 03:09 PM
That works too.

In which case, Erin is presumably cooking breakfast the next morning, having slipped past Dorothea downstairs on account of deadtime?

Neon Knight
2009-09-20, 03:12 PM
May is making the final adjustments to her bags. Her ride will be here soon.

The Bushranger

[Erin's Emporium - Upstairs]

Erin looks to be both hurrying and trying to stretch out time, looking up at the clock as she sets out a plate of ham-and-egg sandwiches. You got everything ready, sweetie?

Neon Knight
2009-09-20, 03:20 PM
[EE]

May nods as she sits down to eat breakfast. "Everything is ready."

Morty
2009-09-20, 03:23 PM
And Dorotha is still politely waiting for her employer-to-be.

The Bushranger

[Erin's Emporium - Upstairs]

Erin smiles and gives May's shoulders a squeeze. I guess I am, too...

[Erin's Empodium - Downstairs]

Crissy smiles at Dorothea. She'll be down in a minute, her daughter's going off to college today.

Neon Knight
2009-09-20, 03:35 PM

May smiles at Erin, trying to cheer her up. "Don't worry. I'll call and try to visit as much as I can, okay?"

Morty
2009-09-20, 03:38 PM
Of course. I'll wait.

The Bushranger
2009-09-20, 03:54 PM
[EE - Upstairs]

Erin nods, smiling more genuinely. You'd better. She giggles to show she's (half) teasing. And if you ever need any help, don't hesitate to call, OK?


[EE-Downstairs]

More coffee?

Neon Knight
2009-09-20, 03:55 PM
[EE]

"Of course, mom." May smiles at her mother as she finishes breakfast.

She goes over to the window and starts. "Oh... they're here."

2009-09-20, 03:57 PM
Daisuke appears next to Dani. Dani, somthing's seriously wrong.

Morty
2009-09-20, 03:59 PM
Yes, please. Dorotha smiles. Turns out she really likes it.

The Bushranger
2009-09-20, 04:06 PM
[EE - Upstairs]

Erin steps up behind May and looks out, even as she slips her arms around her daughter to hug her tightly. I'll miss you.


[EE - Downstairs]

Crissy giggles a little and pours Dorotha a fresh cup. Miss Erin's pretty much addicted to this stuff, I think.


[Streets]

Dani spins around in surprise!
Eeep! Daise, don't sneak up on me like that!
She giggles and looks up . What's wrong?

horngeek
2009-09-20, 04:09 PM
Daisuke hands her a note.

This note. Read it.


Daisuke.

I'm sorry for what I did to you, and to Soul Society.

Before I was taken over by Vileheart, Cal gave me and others a mission to kill and/or torture the following prople:

Dani - GLoG
Mint - Location unknown
KR - GLoG
HappyTurtle - GLoG
Skrall - GLoG
Runner - GLoG

There is the possibility that he is still going after those people. Warn them.

-Karuka Kurosawa


You can see why I'm seriously worried.

Morty
2009-09-20, 04:10 PM
Dorotha raises an eyebrow. Not literally, I hope.

Neon Knight
2009-09-20, 04:16 PM
[EE]

May leans up to kiss her mother on the cheek. "I'll miss you too."

horngeek

40 minute deadtime. Don't send Dani away!

The Bushranger
2009-09-20, 04:26 PM
[EE - Upstairs]

Erin smiles, and returns the kiss on May's cheek. [size=1]Need help getting everything downstairs?


[EE - Downstairs]

Crissy shakes her head a little. [color=orange]Probably not, but she does drink an awful lot of it...


[Streets]

Dani reads the note, her expression changing to a disctincly "oh" one.
[color=navy]Oh no...we need to warn Mint and Judy about this!

BR has to go on a shopping run in about 10 minutes, so she'll still be here. :smalltongue:

Neon Knight
2009-09-20, 04:28 PM
[EE]

"Yeah." May goes to get her bags and start moving them out to the car.

Morty
2009-09-20, 04:32 PM
Dorotha looks doubtful. I'll be careful with it, then...

The Bushranger
2009-09-20, 04:38 PM
[EE]

Erin helps May with a sad smile, carrying the bag of defensive weaponry. Remember to eat well, don't go out with questionable people or stay out at parties or anything, call as often as you can, check under the bed for bogeymen in the evening...



Don't worry. Crissy smiles. She said something about it being her metabolism. Since you're not half-ghost you should be fine.


((One more post for now))

Neon Knight
2009-09-20, 04:40 PM
[EE]

May giggles. "I will, I will. And I'll make you proud. I love you, mum." She'll wait for Erin's reply, and final goodbye, and then she'll get into the car and head off to college.

Morty
2009-09-20, 04:41 PM
Dorotha's eyes open wide. Half-ghost? Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude...

The Bushranger
2009-09-20, 04:49 PM
[EE]

Crissy nods. Yeah. And don't worry about it. It's complicated and there's something to do with a mad wizard and a cloning machine or something like that. But she's really cool.

---

I love you too, sweetie. Erin smiles and gives May a final, very tight hug, kissing her cheek, before stepping back and holding the door for her.

Then watching the car pull away, standing there with her hands in her pockets, and tears trickling down her cheeks...

Neon Knight
2009-09-20, 04:51 PM
[EE]

The car drives off, as May heads into her future, with one last teary-eyed smile back out the window at her mother.

Morty
2009-09-20, 04:56 PM
I... see. Dorotha is immensly curious, but decides not to pry.

Rayum returns with his meal for today. He has a half eaten apple that is barely rotten at all, just a little brown, some soggy bread, and a bit of meat he had found. He sits down to eat it with his only company being the statues.

horngeek
2009-09-20, 05:02 PM
Yes, we do.

KR... already knows...

And we have to make sure you're safe, as well.

This also answers another question of mine. Karuka's really changed.

Renault follows him out of the Tavern. "Are you certain this is wise?" The elf asks, wary of the whole idea. "What sort of trouble do you have in mind, anyways?"

Oh, I know it isn't wise. The whole point to doing stuff like this is that you deliberately stop being smart about it. As for what trouble we should look for...well, I don't know. We'll look for some stuff around Town. There's got to be at least one random wanna-be dictator, gang leader, slaver, criminal, child-eating monster or other such things around here somewhere. Lucas looks over and forces an almost-smile.

Renault gives a polite cough. "It is... good there is so much trouble here." The elf says delicately. "And, may I say, that if we act without thinking, we are liable to get ourselves killed. If anything, this would be the one time we need to keep our wits about us."

He sees a sign being put up on a nearby building and walks over to read it. His blue eyes go wide when he understands what it's advertising. "Ai ya!"

2009-09-20, 05:56 PM
Lucas looks over and reads the sign as well. Hoo, boy. This is going to make a lot of the people around Town nervous. I'm tempted to go put down the guys who put this sign up. Offering the opportunity to people to murder their way out of slavery. How low can these guys get? Lucas looks nervous now. This is the kind of thing that occasionally started street wars around Town back in the day.

there are lots of signs about the streets.

Artemis97

Renault shakes his head. "I do not know, but I do know many will be tempted to try this. Ten lives in exchange for one's own freedom? More to live in luxery? As nobility? Such things are often built upon war and bloodshed, but this? This is madness? Who is the enemy they are fighting? Why are so many deaths neccessary?" The wizard asks, his voice close to cracking.

A passing ISF patrol stops by Renault and Lucas. Seeing the sign, the leading officer sighs. "Idiots..." he says, going to tear the sign down.

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 06:17 PM
Lucas doesn't say a thing, and his initial nervousness is beginning to pass, being replaced by fury. Renault should feel it radiating off him. I'd say we go out and deal with the guys that put this poster up.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 06:23 PM
"Those 'guys' are probably quite powerful, especially if they are offering noble titles. That makes them obility themselves. We can't just go busting down doors and invading. Or, at least, we shouldn't. Not until we know more about this." Renault reasons.

The elf tries to catch the officer's attention. "Pardon me, sir, but couold you tell us what all of this is about?"

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 06:25 PM
Renault, the one thing you need to know about nobles is that they are often just men. Men with small legions of common-born warriors at their beck and call, but men nonetheless. Such an opponent can be dealt with easily, if you do it right. Lucas follows Renault as he approaches the ISF officer.

McBish
2009-09-20, 06:25 PM
Rayum the kobold considers trying to start a fire tonight, but decides it is still warm enough out so he just keeps working on his bowl, rubbing it with his scales that seem to act almost as sandpaper.

The officer shrugs. "A bunch of idiots trying to bail themselves out, I'm guessing. These Imperials-they're not nice people. Say what you will about us, but we never fired artillery strikes into a city. Bastards."

Sszinyon pushes herself up on her toes in an attempt to get even closer to him. She wraps her arms around his neck and deepens the kiss.

And after that kiss is another much longer one. Endrik holds Sszy tightly, as though he does not wish to let go. He has, after a very long time, found out what it is like to kiss someone you love.

He likes it.

Shadow of the Sun

With a pop in the sky, as of fireworks, Sszy and Endrik get rained on.

By purple confetti.

Yaaaaaaaaaaay!

Darkcomet

[Streets]


Exactly what have you guys done? Lucas looks at the ISF officer, expecting the worst.

Lucas may be surprised, then. "We shot a mob boss and put down a bunch of gangs that thought they could get away with outright controlling part of the city. You'd be surprised how much flak it's drawn."

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 06:49 PM
Lucas is surprised. Well...that's....actually pretty impressive and admirable. Lucas is too stunned to say anything more.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 06:51 PM
Sszinyon flinches at the sound of the pop, clinging just a bit closer to Endrik. However, one hand was now gripping the hilt of a sword. Then she notices the confetti slowly drifting down and laughs.


Elsewhere, Renault was listening quietly to the conversation between the ISF officer and Lucas.

Darkcomet
2009-09-20, 06:55 PM
[Streets]

The officer is surprised too. Mostly by his rather positive reaction. "We like to think so too, but we've just had our leaders accused of being tyrants for it. Of course, this might have something to do with how the resistance leader is apparently the mob boss's wife."

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 07:00 PM
Ah. Lucas thinks for a second, and then smiles. Are you accepting partisan or irregular support, by any chance?

Darkcomet

The officer nods. "Of course. Even with us around, a lot of things still end up happening. Mostly the supernatural and the like, which we're not nearly so well-equipped to deal with. We'll take any help we can get at this point."

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 07:11 PM
Lucas' hand begins to glow and he telekinetically picks up a nearby piece of litter and then looks over at Renault. I think my friend and I here can be of some assistance. We'll need some further information, before we can be of any use. The glow around Lucas' hand disappears after a moment and the litter drops into a nearby trash can.

Yes, I believe Town has trash cans.

When mentioned, Renault gives a short bow.

Destro_Yersul
2009-09-20, 07:17 PM
One of the paladin's hands had gone to his sword as well, as he looked around for the source of the pop. Seeing it was only confetti, though, actually makes him chuckle a bit. I believe we are being watched.

Figures it would take love to give him a sense of humour.

"Well, there's two main things now. There's the Resistance, and then there's the Infestation Zone. The latter we don't know too much about aside from a whole chunk of the city having been taken over by... bugs. We weren't around when that happened, but we've managed to block its growth. The Resistance we know a lot more about. Its leader is a Layla Moseley, and it seems to operate in the slums, if the recent attacks on our patrols are any indication. They're not very well-equipped from what we've seen lately, but they're formed from the remnants of the gangs, and we know they had access to some ridiculous firepower, in the form of building-leveling laser cannons. You'd best not let on that you're with us, though, or..." The officer lets Lucas and Renault finish that thought themselves, as DC-the-player has to go for a bit.

Rayum sets out the bowl behind the statue of the serpent. And if anyone notices it seems to almost fit there, and if they look closely they might notice that it seems to be designed for the rain falling on the serpent to slide down its back into the bowl.

Sszinyon looks up at Sunn and smirks. "I know we are." She says to Endrik.

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 07:42 PM
Lucas frowns. Renault, one thing you need to learn when you're dealing with me. I'm not about to lead someone in a situation like this. You're a partner here, not a subordinate. We've got a few options. I'd like your opinion. Lucas' tone indicates he really would like to know what Renault thinks would be the best course of action. He also doesn't seem to notice Renault being overwhelmed, mistaking it for common hesitance. Renault might be comforted by this. It means he's not reading Renault's mind.

Shadow of the Sun
2009-09-20, 07:53 PM
Sunn beams at the two of them.

Knew you could do it!

Her complete and utter happiness is radiant.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 08:04 PM
Well, Reanult would know if Lucas were trying to read his mind. The wizard was actually well trained in recognizing such things. "I have given my opinion, however, if you would prefer an analysis..." He trails off, thinking for a moment, going over the information.

"If this infestation zone has taken over a large part of the city, I would say it is a priority to restore the area. However, it has been contained and this Resistance seems to be an active threat, if our friend here is to be believed. If combat breaks out in the streets, innocent people coould be killed in the crossfire." The elf nods, coming to a decision. "But bloodshed is guaranteed with those bounties that have been put out. Men will murder for a chance at freedom. I have seen it before." Had been tempted to do the same.

* * *

Sszinyon inclines her head. "I thank you, again."

Destro_Yersul

Endrik follows Sszy's gaze and nods in greeting to Sunn. I suppose I should thank you as well.

Sunn extends her hands to both Sszy and Endrik, for a handshake.

She's still keeping her upside down position, though.

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 08:13 PM
So, we can hit the Infestation Zone and retake it, we can head into the Slums and try to take down the gangs before they become a more serious problem, or we can deal with the Imperials and try to stop the bounties from becoming active. Lucas thinks and leans against the wall of a nearby building.

Rayum the little kobold missing an arm and leg heads out into the streets, staying in the shadows. Who knows what he might run into.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 08:21 PM
"I would say the Imperials are the greatest threat to the citizenry." Renault says, more clearly stating his conclusion.

Perhaps surprisingly, Sszinyon takes her hand off her blade and accepts the handshake.

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 08:22 PM
Lucas might spot Rayum the little kobold. What the...is that Kobold missing an arm? Lucas is shocked. If someone had lost an arm, they'd have long since died as a result of blood loss, or at least have died from shock.

McBish
2009-09-20, 08:24 PM
Well the arm seemed to have lost the arm awhile ago, it is scared over and it doesn't seem to notice it being gone too much. It seems to try to stay hidden. Also one might notice it is missing an eye, which has scaled over the empty hole, and is slightly burnt and has a bandage on it's stomach with very little blood on it. The bandage is actually a shirt.

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 08:26 PM
Lucas walks over. Are you OK? Lucas kneels to get down to the Kobold's level. Most of these wounds look pretty old...

But then, in a burst of deadtime, her player vanishes.

The little kobold backs away looking afraid. Unless he starts to speak draconic the little guy won't understand him.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 08:34 PM
Fortunately, Renault speaks Draconic fluently, and knows it's a common tongue for scaley-kind.

[Draconic]"It's alright. We won't harm you."

Destro_Yersul

Well, Endrik didn't get a chance to shake her hand, unfortunately. Deadtime hit her too quickly. So instead he turns back to Sszy. Back home, then?

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 08:36 PM
Lucas reaches forward to inspect the Kobold's wounds, slowly, trying not to startle the poor creature. Yeah...these definitely aren't new. I can't take on a wound of this caliber that's grown so old.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 08:37 PM
Sszinyon nods and smiles. "Yes. Let us go." She moves to take Endrik's hand and lead the way home.

McBish
2009-09-20, 08:38 PM
The little kobold still seems frightened, despite reassurance or getting down to it's level. It's injuries seem old, but the burns and gunshot wound under the bandage are probably only 5 or so days old. It looks nervous at the examination, but to scared to run. [Draconic]OK. He says nervously to Renault.

blackouttwo
2009-09-20, 08:47 PM
Lucas quickly recognizes the language; E, his old father-in-law, pretty much downloaded entire libraries of information into his head a couple of years ago here in Town. Don't worry...I think we can find someone to heal these. Lucas thinks. If he could just find Lillith, she could heal the Kobold, but he didn't want to make her any angrier. No, they'd have to find someone else.

McBish
2009-09-20, 08:52 PM
The kobold now seems confused. [Draconic]Why? Who are you people? He really isn't used to this nice of treatment.

Destro_Yersul

And home they go, hand in hand. It's kind of cute, really.

Just don't tell them that. They might kill you for it.

2009-09-20, 08:54 PM
It's what we do, little guy. Lucas moves to pick up the Kobold. It'd be able to travel easier with a helping hand...

Followed by deadtime. Darnit.

McBish
2009-09-20, 08:57 PM
Oh the kobold doesn't like that. He jumps back from Lucas as he tries to pick him up. He even bares his teeth a bit looking ready to bite, but more out of fear then aggression.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 09:09 PM
"That is not exactly dignified." Renault mutters in Common, before returning to Draconic.

[Draconic]"Please forgive him." The elf asks the kobold. "He is honestly trying to help. You're injured. Please, let us help you."

McBish
2009-09-20, 09:13 PM
[Draconic]There not that bad. I'm getting better. He seems wary of going with them. But he stops baring his teeth.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 09:20 PM
The elf nods. [Draconic]"I am sure you are, but it would be best if you sought out proper healing. We have contacts who would be able to supply such treatment. If that's what you want, of course." Renault adds, picking up on te kobold's mistrust.

McBish
2009-09-20, 09:24 PM
[Draconic]Would I have to go somewhere? It asks curiously not entirely sure what to think of this. Could it be a trap, or were these people actually nice. Lots of people here seem fairly nice, but that just doesn't seem right.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 09:37 PM
[Draconic]"Possibly." Renault admits. "We may be able to bring the help to you, though. It will depend on who we ask for help from."

McBish
2009-09-20, 09:39 PM
[Draconic]I'd rather not go anywhere. Yep the kobold is still very paranoid and a little scared.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 09:59 PM
[Draconic]"Then we will try and bring someone to you. In fact, may I have a lok at your wound? I may be able to do something." He offers, kneeling down.

McBish
2009-09-20, 10:02 PM
The kobold slowly steps forward and unwraps the shirt from is stomach, showing a fairly fresh gunshot wound, though it was just a grazing wound. The wound seems to be healing slowly, and fortunately doesn't show any sign of being infected.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 10:24 PM
[Draconic]"Ah, that isn't so bad. I believe I can fix it. This may feel a bit strange." Renault warns, before reaching out a hand. It begins to glow with a golden energy, and the kobold's wound should do the same. It will feel a bit warm and tingly, but not uncomfortably so. the wound should heal at an accelerated pace, before dissappearing entirely.

[Draconic]"Is there anything else you might need?" The elf wonders.

2009-09-20, 11:08 PM
The kobold shifts a bit uncomfortably. Not sure what to say, but his stomach answers for him with a hungry growl.

Artemis97
2009-09-20, 11:46 PM
"Ah..." Renault frowns. He didn't have any food with him. He didn't have much at all, actually. But what he did have, he was always willing to share. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a few silver and copper coins, offering them to the kobold.

McBish
2009-09-20, 11:48 PM
The kobold takes them slowly. [Draconic]Thank you. Then looking around he slowly starts to back away. Then turns and heads back towards the abandoned park he lives in. Because McBish is getting ready to go away for the night. Just waiting for Bruce Lee to kill Chuck Norris.

The kobold can easily be followed if one wishes to.

Otherwise she’ll fade into the background like…before.” A reassuring smile. “But she did call me and tell me that she’s ready to commit. That she wanted to spend some time with Cierra to break it to her because she seems…fragile. And that she intends to avoid Matt as much as possible to resist temptation.

Alright, I can get this stuff easily. It should be ready by tomorrow morning, in fact...


[Club 30s]

BR looks like he's ready to say something else, but then the lunchtime deadtime gets him.

Layla smiles. "In our previous form, we were able to affect people and things, sway them...but as a ghost, more or less. We always faded into the background, faded from memory. She's afraid of that, still. I understand. But she's working hard to overcome that fear. Which is why she is secluded up there in that cabin of yours, waiting for you."

[Club 30s]

Well, I suppose I shouldn't keep her waiting any longer. BR smiles, and stands, dropping a small case on the table. The two of you should buy drinks on me.

Smiling, he tips an imaginary cap, then Folds out...

...leaving a case of 20 blue vivid diamonds on the table.

[Streets]

Rayum the kobold finds an outside butcher store and slowly approaches it nervously. After a bit the butcher looks at the little creature and after a bit of pointing and showing the coins he gets some cheap looking meat and heads off.

Else where Val walks quickly through the streets seeming nervous. She looks for some stores that sell swimsuits.

The Bushranger
2009-09-21, 09:19 PM
((Dani should open one. :smalltongue:
Although I suspect Val's style is more modest...
Of course, anything would be.))

There seem to be a few clothing stores that include swimwear in their collections.

Rayum returns and starts a small fire to lightly cook his meat, or at least part of it.

[Shop]

Val finds a cheap store and heads in browsing the swimsuit section.

The Bushranger

[Shop]

It's decidedly cheap, but at least clean enough, with a bored-yet-still-friendly-enough-looking clerk sitting at the counter, reading a magazine:

There seems to be a fairly average selection of swimsuits in one- and two-piece styles, with coverages ranging from "very modest" to "moderatly daring".

McBish

[Shop]

Val spends a good amount of time looking over the suits, and eventually chooses a two piece of pretty average coverage and heads to the counter. Hey there.

The Bushranger
2009-09-21, 09:58 PM
The young woman at the counter looks up with a smile. Hi. Found everything you needed? Her nametag reads "Patricia", and she goes to scan the purchase.

McBish
2009-09-21, 10:04 PM
Val nods. Yeah thanks. Val smiles, hoping the swimsuit will look good on her or at least not look horrible.

The Bushranger
2009-09-21, 10:15 PM
I think this'll look good on you. Patricia smiles and gives Val the price.

McBish
2009-09-21, 10:22 PM
Val smiles Thanks, I hope so. She slowly pays for the suit.

[Abandoned Park]

Rayum slowly cooks his meet over the fire mainly just searing it. He takes it off the fire and starts to nibble on it.

Trust me. Patrica smiles, handing Val her change and purchase in a bag. Hope you shop again with us sometime!

Val nods and heads out of the store heading back to GLoG.

Dorotha is around in Erin's Emporium, waiting for the tools to arrive so she can start working.

Crissy is behind the counter at the moment.

Erin comes downstairs with a smile...just as there's a knock on the door.

It's the Delivery Gnomes!

Morty
2009-09-22, 09:28 AM
Dorotha is waiting near the door, hoping that the gnomes brought her equipment.

The Bushranger
2009-09-22, 09:39 AM
Indeed, that's what they're delivering, and one gnome thrusts a clipboard at Dorothea. "Sign here, pleez!"


Erin steps over to direct the delivery and installation of the equipment in the side room.

Morty
2009-09-22, 09:42 AM
Dorotha signs where needed.

A small bit of smoke rises into the sky as Rayum's small fire is slowly being put out by the rain that shows no sign of stopping. Rayum gets up and drinks from his bowl that has filled up already with the rain water.

"Thank yew!"

The Head Delivery Gnome blows a whistle, and the Delivery Gnomes troop out!

Erin chuckles and starts assembling the alchemical equipment.

Morty
2009-09-22, 02:50 PM
Dorotha begins to help Erin set up the equipment.

The Bushranger
2009-09-22, 02:54 PM
So, how long will it take you to get everything set up and producing? Erin asks as she makes a particulary fine adjustment - using telekinensis.

Morty
2009-09-22, 03:05 PM
I should be able to start working on the most simple recipes immediately, though it'll be a while before I move on to more complex ones.

The Bushranger
2009-09-22, 03:08 PM
Erin nods. Well, if you could make a list of what you can make and how much for them, I can post it for people so they know you're here.

Morty
2009-09-22, 03:12 PM
I'll do this. But as soon as I start working, I'll be able to make basic medicaments, powders, fireworks and trinkets.

The Bushranger
2009-09-22, 03:17 PM
Thinks like medicines, that would be good - I'm not sure I've seen a medicine shop in town yet...

Morty
2009-09-22, 03:23 PM
Producing medicines provides for most of my guild's income, so I'll be glad to focus on them if you'd like.

The Bushranger
2009-09-22, 05:15 PM
At least at first, if you don't mind. Erin smiles.

McBish
2009-09-22, 07:30 PM
Rayum decides he needs to find out more about the people in this Town, he finds it odd that everyone is so nice to him. So he leaves his abandoned park and starts to sneak around the streets looking around.

Dorotha is working in her laboratory, surrounded with steam and weird smells.

A truck pulls up to the back, the kind of truck the club no doubt sees all the time to keep their drinks stocked.

One of the bouncers looks the truck over, then steps to the driver's window for paperwork.

FireFox
2009-09-23, 09:57 AM
The outside of the truck is normal, but instead of alcohol the truck contains crates. The driver nonchalantly hands a clipboard to the bouncer to verify the receipt of...
Holy crap, that's a lot of guns. Courtesy of "Prometheus Securities", a company Layla might remember from her talk with Matt.

Rayum sneaks through the streets observing the people of this city trying to figure out what is so different about them.

The bouncer takes the papers inside, which Layla signs with a flourish and a grin. She steps to the rear bay to supervise the unloading process.

Towering Bear raises his eyebrows as he sees the unloading.

I wonder if they make them in moonsilver...

Layla shrugs. "What is that? And why does it matter? I can possibly request something to be made, if it's needed." She waves to Ma-er, um, the driver. :smallamused:

It's a magical material.

Us Lunars love the stuff for its shapeshifting properties, but it's very, very hard to obtain.

Dirk Kris

As the crates are moved, Layla shifts her eyes to Towering Bear. "Tell me more about you. About the Lunars - I am unfamiliar with them."

One of Layla's staff may notice the rucksack that's been left somewhere they would notice but the patrons would not. Possibly under a table with a tablecloth to the floor? ((I've never been to a club and I don't imagine ever wanting to; I don't like loud noises)). Attached to the bag is a note.

Layla;
Consider this a gift. From me to you.
Sincerely, The Earl

PS. might want to invest in invisibility-seeing glasses for the bouncers; but this was teleported in place.

The rucksack is very heavy.

Another nameless bouncer brings Layla the rucksack. She reads the note, then gestures for the bag to be opened at her feet.
