There's nothing, as he already pulled out his wallet and the video card for Vasquez to take.
"Suit yourself. Someone up there would."

"Hopefully my work was sufficient to prove her wrong, then."
That would be nice, for the mage-lady.
Not often being disproven is a good thing like this.
Feia may wish to speak to her at some point, to satisfy her curiosity.Last edited by Chaotic Bob; 2011-04-23 at 07:46 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Meeting Room
"No need to, I have someone right outside to take care of her." Fred informs Terrowin, and assuming Rebecca exits the room, she'll find a tan skinned elf with bright blond hair dressed in a standard white uniform, awaiting her with a nod. "My name is Arla, please follow me to the infirmary. It'll just take a moment." She tells her. Rebecca will see the symbol of Horus on a chain around her neck as they go.
Fred turns back to Terrowin after watching them go. "You mentioned other slaves? What happened to them?"
Zefir
Taul, Arla's brother and pale skinned compared to her darker tone, nods to Zefir. "Then follow me, and we'll get started." If Zefir follows, they'll head to a ceremony chamber.Last edited by UncleWolf; 2011-04-24 at 07:32 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Meeting Room- Terrowin
"We were unable to save two of them from those whispers when the zombies came; they died. We saved Rebecka, though. The fourth slave was fed to giant beetles to discourage escape attempts; it worked, and they never tried." Partially because she was still alive when they started to eat her.
Infirmary?- Rebecka
Rebecka will come willingly. Physical examination finds no scars, wounds or any other signs of her captivity- not even the branding. Well, not quite the branding- the old scar was sliced off and new skin encouraged with a healing spell to prevent scarring, though on one shoulder is a faint two-tailed scorpion and on the other IT 03. There's signs of damage to her feet, but it was healed shortly afterwards and very hard to detect. There are a few old scars from being whipped, though. Also, she doesn't speak much as she has yet to get used to having a tongue.
Mental examination finds several walls in her mind, ones marked with impressions that what's closed off beyond was closed off to protect Rebecka, and some are braced by Rebecka herself.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Infirmary
Arla will notice all the physical marks, having served as a physician for a long time, and she'll gently probe at her mind, just enough to notice the walls and their purpose. She makes no move to break them down or look on the other side as she knows sometimes it's best not to remember what happens. She'll give Rebecka a slight smile when she finishes. "They've taken good care of you it seems." She says, only partly believing it. It's likely just to cover themselves up, but the fact that they were willing to heal that much shows that they could do so if they wished. Which was respectable, even if a bit frowned upon that they tortured the person in the first place.
Meeting Room
He raises an eyebrow. "You sacrificed a slave? How do you justify this to our laws? You wish to have Din held at fault for her murder of one of your associates, when you've murdered before. Am I correct?"

Somewhere
Delisle looks for Sue, to see if she can speak with him alone.
Carl's Quarters
Sunny is still holding Carl in her lap. "So can we tell Cherry and Djar now?" she asks.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Locker Room
Eventually, Sue will be found in the locker room, mostly dressed in his civvies after taking a shower. He has a small bag with him though, packed with clothes. Seems he might be living on site for a couple day. He does give her a weak smile when he sees her though. "Looking for me?"
Carl's Place
Carl grins up at her, unable to resist her infectious happiness. "Of course." He tells her, hoping Charity would act surprised enough.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Locker Room
Delisle makes sure no one is around before giving him a hug, still unsure whether Sue is okay with others knowing. "I guess it didn't go well?"
Carl's Quarters >> Edijar's Quarters
The puppies are brought along, of course. Sunny holds hands with Carl as they go to Edijar's Quarters and knock on the door.
Charity answers, and smiles to see the two together. "Hey, come in." she says.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Locker Room
Sue sighs. "Well enough at any rate. She can't do anything legally to keep Lottie away from me now, but I'm still going to give her a couple days to cool off."
Edijar's Place
Carl is a bit surprised to see that Charity is still here, but he still offers her a grin and takes the pups inside, giving Sunny's hand a squeeze to tell her that it was her good news to give. After all, she was the one who proposed.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Locker Room
"Is there anything I can do?" Delisle asks as she holds him, silently cursing Charlotta for not appreciating this man, one of the most selfless and noble men she knew.
Edijar's Place
Sunny is almost like a puppy herself, wiggling all over with happiness as Charity leads them in and offers them seats. "Is Djar here?" Sunny asks.
"He's just in the shower." Charity says. "How are you feeling Carl? It's good to see you."My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Lockers
Sue hugs her back and rests his head on top of hers. "Not at the moment I think. Unless you want to help me get situated. Lottie already knows I'll be here for a few days, so I don't have to worry about her stopping by."
Edijar's Quarters
"I'm doing great, thank you." Carl tells Charity, squeezing Sunny's hand again.
As they speak, Edijar gets out of the shower, dried off and in lounge pants. He gives the couple a smile. "What brings you here?" He asks, the only one in the room who doesn't know.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Lockers
"Sure," Delisle says. Then hesitates before making the next suggestion. "Or, you could stay at my place tonight."
Sue will know that Delisle's on base quarters is her permanent home.
Edijar's Place
Sunny looks at Carl, then at Edijar, then her sister.
"IaskedCarltomarrymeandhesaidyes!" she blurts out all at once.
Charity squeals in that way that excited girls do, but that Charity is not typically in the habit of doing, and throws her arms around her sister.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Locker Room
Sue leans down to give her a quick kiss. "If you don't mind, I think it'd be a better idea. If I got my own room. Just for now. I won't mind a visit though."
Edijar's Quarters
Edijar blinks for a moment before he and Carl both wince at the girlish noise. The former then offers Carl a shake of his hand. "Congratulations." Carl shakes the hand with a chuckle. "Thanks."
After the handshake, Edijar looks uncertain for a moment, but then remembers a couple things and tries to give Sunny a hug.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ

Alice gives him a sad smile. "Whatever you think is best, Sue." She wouldn't push. She'd take whatever part in his life he would let her have.
Edijar's Place
Sunny happily hugs Edijar, any fear she once had about touching other people completely gone, at least in the here and now. Charity takes a moment to silently squeeze Carl's hand, and meet his eyes with a smile.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Edijar's Place
Carl gives Charity a full blown hug instead of just a hand shake. "Congratulations." Edijar tells Sunny, giving her a tight squeeze before letting go with a smile.
Locker Room
"You'll stop by, right?" Sue asks Alice hopefully. He knows it might look bad from outside, him being a grunt and her being an officer, but he hopes that doesn't deter her.
Ceremony Chamber
Zefir will be guided to a chair, and Taul begins to pull out spell components. A knot of silk, the symbol of Remnant, a bit of silver...
"When the Geas is complete, you will be unable to harm a member of Remnant, in any way, willingly, to your knowledge. Nor will you be able to tell others outside of Remnant that you are under a Geas. Is this acceptable?"

Carl snorts and lets go of Charity. "Sure, make fun of me being short." He says jokingly.

Sue gives her a time in the evening before hugging her again. "I'll see you then?"

He takes a seat.
"Question in case: Does this only count for members I know they are or does this work for one I don't know as well. You know maybe there is another spy and such. That throws the question how does thespell know about members? "
Even if he is no caster he had to learn things about spells as well.Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ

"One time! One time, I had to!" Charity laughs. "So is it just a secret for the four of us, or are you telling other people?"
Sunny hears the question, and looks to Carl. "Just us. We can tell other people later."
Locker Room
Alice stands on tiptoes and pulls Sue's head down (both being required) to kiss him lingeringly. "I'll be there." She heads back to her office, but on the way, stops and looks in the mirror to straighten her hair that has come out of the braid. When she steps out of the locker room, she looks completely straight-laced and professional.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ

"Only those that you know are members of Remnant." Taul clarifies.
Locker Rooms
Sue sighs after she leaves and picks up his bag before heading to his quarters, hoping that Charlotta wasn't doing anything stupid.
Edijar's Place
The guys can't help but chuckle at the joke, and Carl nods. "Just us for now. We'll tell others when we're good and ready."

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ

"Let us take you two out tomorrow to celebrate." Charity suggests.
Oh, and the puppies, picking up on all the human excitement, are running amok in excitement too.
Sue's Place
Right on time, Alice knocks on the door, in a simple black dress, and with her hair down, carrying a bottle of wine.
People will talk.Last edited by happyturtle; 2011-04-25 at 09:13 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Meeting Room
"I justify it by saying I was unfamiliar with the laws here and if I had not, I would have done the same to any escapees, no matter how many of them there were. It's not a very good excuse, I know, but it's all I have. As for Din, Gertrude was more than an associate, and I believe that it is usual for an honest law enforcement agency to prosecute all crimes that are brought to their attention." Not quite answering the questions.
Infirmary
"When I was punished, I received healing immediately afterwards." The healing prevented scars and toughening of the skin, so if punishment had to be repeated it hurt just as much. The healing was through special potions which left the pain behind. Rebecka's voice is raspy and she doesn't sound confident in its use.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Edijar's Place
Carl gives a grin as Edijar nods. "I hope you two are able to foot the bill then." He is a halfling after all.
Edijar chuckles at the remark. "I was an adventurer for a long time, trust me, I can foot any bill."
Sue's Place
Sue answers the door, dressed fairly well in a dress shirt and slacks. He gives her a smile and an obviously pleased look at her appearance. He opens the door all the way and gives a gesture for her to come in. "You look wonderful."
Ceremony Chamber
"The Geas wouldn't break. After all, it isn't your fault if you don't know personally."
Meeting Room
Fred catches the word "honest", and catches the implications of it, knowing that Terrowin was trying to manipulate him into agreeing. It wouldn't work, even though Fred already agrees. "Be that as it may, while Din will be prosecuted if enough evidence is found, but by your own admittance, you still murdered someone. While your past actions may clear you of it overall, there's still going to be consequences. There will have to be full inspections of your churches on a bi-monthly basis, at random times."
Infirmary
Hearing the voice, Arla searches the shelves for a moment before finding a potion and offering it to her. "Drink this, it'll help your throat and mouth recover."

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ
Edijar's Place
And after some more congratulations and general happiness, Sunny says she needs to head back to work, and leaves - not without a long kiss goodbye to Carl.
Sue's Place
Alice steps inside, smiling up at him. "I thought the occasion warranted civvies."
She had been the one to make the first move the other day, in the heat of the moment, but now, she hesitates. She knows there's someone else, and that she'll always be the Other Woman. She's willing to accept that. But she doesn't know if Sue is, and she half expects him to give her a gentle let-down speech at any moment. It would explain why he turned down her invitation to stay at her place.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Re: [Nexus] Remnant HQ

Carl kisses her back passionately, and after telling the others thanks, head back to his place to crash with the pups unless stopped.
Sue's Place
Sue will take the wine from her and set it on the table. He doesn't bother with any speeches and just leans down to kiss her. He wasn't going to throw away one of the few good things that's happened to him in a while. Sue mostly turned down the offer because he really did need a place of his own, just in case Lottie came to visit.
