Re: [Nexus] Home 8
[Fettina's Suite]
Shrike giggles, shaking her head, and scrambles to find her clothes...oh wait, Fettina's wearing some of them. So she puts on what she can find, which covers her up probably too much for Tina and Zamira, and hopefully just enough for Evan.

Re: [Nexus] Home 8
Jasper's Apartment
Yeah, Jasper's not exactly fascinated by the tattoo when there's much better things to look at. For instance, that gemstone. Jasper can definitely appreciate shiny, valuable objects. Or Objects, as the case may be.
"Yeah. Wouldn't look half as good on no-one else though." He says, kissing her on the neck, hands deftly working to undo the buttons on his shirt and tossing aside his hat and bandana in the process.
"And one of these days, I promise I'll find the clock that makes time run and throw a wrench in the works. Then we'll have all the time we could want."Last edited by ThirdEmperor; 2011-09-16 at 02:13 AM.

Re: [Nexus] Home 8

Legion giggles when his lips find her neck, finding it both ticklish and pleasant. The Lady's attention falls to his sudden lack of a shirt, studying the muscles with her fingers and her eyes.
She leans back, letting him do as he pleases, smiling teasingly. The Lady replies, "You start missing me pretty quick, don't you?"Last edited by Murkus; 2011-09-16 at 02:59 AM.

Re: [Nexus] Home 8
Jasper's Apartment
"Oh, there's nothing like a train ride with a bunch of killer geckos to make a man miss his sweetheart." Jasper says teasingly, resting his head against her chest and trailing a finger from her stomach up to her cheek affectionately, working on removing his belt at the same time.
"Why? Surely the thought of me crossed your mind once or twice while you were off doing dastardly deeds at AMEN? Or was I just forgotten about?" The curtain probably gets pulled a little after she answers.Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

Re: [Nexus] Home 8
[Haunted Warehouse]
Percilia slyly grins, pleased that Tom has assented to her little training plan. It is sure to bring the pair closer together, at a small cost if need be.
"There are a fair number of abandoned houses lying empty and disused in the Red Zone. I was thinking that we might be able to borrow one of those for this gig."
Houses in the Red Zone are usually abandoned for a reason. "Borrowing" one for any purpose, however noble, certainly wouldn't be a wise or even half-rational decision. You know what I'm getting at, don't you, Tom?

"Well I appreciate it, for one." Tina says, smiling a little more mildly. After a moment, she looks around at all of them. "I appreciate all you guys. Being here. Even after I drag you all into this, I mean..." Tina shakes her head and swallows visibly. "Thanks."
Jasper's Apartment
"I wished you were there the whole time." Legion says, raising his mouth so she can kiss him again as the curtain is pulled.
When it rises again, the Lady's straddling him, eyes blank and breathing heavy. She lifts her leg and starts to stand, but ends up slipping off with a clumsy cry. The Lady flops to the rug, hair flowing out around her face, and she laughs. "Oops." She sits up, brushing stray locks back and smiling at him.Last edited by Murkus; 2011-09-16 at 09:58 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Home 8
Haunted Warehouse
"Fine, but it's not going to turn out 'abandoned' like this warehouse or all those drug-peddling dens or that one place where a guy was running henchmen tryouts, right?" The last thing Tom wants to do is run a simulation and then find some terrified civilian on the opposite side of a door. Or worse, a completely unafraid and armed slave trader.
That said, it's still Percilia we're talking about here, Tom. How would she know what to expect on the opposite side of the door? Even Prime didn't seem totally all-knowing and invincible, and she was like...Super-Percilia or something. With extra-crazy and ghost-friends!

Re: [Nexus] Home 8
[Haunted Warehouse]
If Percilia did a bit of research and monitored the building for a few days, she might know what to expect on the other side. But that'd just be plain creepy. Additionally, where would Percilia get the time to do all of that? She's been stuck with NO and Tom the whole time! Well, that's not exactly true. She did figure out a way to found an organization in spite of all that, so she could conceivably have staked out a building in the Red Zone for a few days...
"First off, how isn't this place abandoned? It's not like there's anyone else living here right now."
... Memory lapses. Gotta hate 'em.
"Second, I don't plan on choosing a drug den or burned-out villain or lackey hangout. That was a bit repetitive, sorry. I should have only used one name or the other. If I was going to run the sim in a place that resembled either one of those situations, I'd just save myself the trouble and head on over to the Black Dagon's Den or whatever it's called."
A rather scathing diss concerning our good friend Mister K, if Percilia does say so herself. The question is, how the heck does she know about BDD already? Maybe she just happened upon it in the meaningless babble spouted off by some NPCs when no PC is somehow interacting with them?
"Third..."
"You know, I don't really have a third point. Hold on for just a darn moment! Yes I do. My third point is that I don't really have a third point of which to speak even though I am speaking about it and thus wasting both your time and my own which is a real travesty because time is a valuable and limited resource that most people wish they had more of."
Yep!

Re: [Nexus] Home 8

Wait, what? How does she know what will and won't be safe when she chooses? Who's to say what's going to-
"...Oh. Oh fudge, I just realized I misunderstood everything you said. I don't know why, but for some reason I thought we'd just be going to the Red Zone here and now, picking a place out at random, and hoping for the best. That...wow. Never mind what I said." Sure, maybe you would've done that back in your time as a MagClone, Tom, but don't you think Percilia might just be a little bit more cautious than that?

Re: [Nexus] Home 8
[Haunted Warehouse]
Just picking out a place at random would be a terrible idea! Think of all of the repercussions if there was actually someone inside of the building! They might get shot and killed and-
"We could go off and do it at random right now, if you really wanted to."
Nope. Percilia is not more cautious than that.
"Just give me some time to ready the homemade explosives we'll be using."
Definitely not. Heck, Percilia might even be...bolder...than Magtok!

Re: [Nexus] Home 8

Jasper rolls of the couch after her, landing beside Legion with a heavy "thump" as he hits the carpeted floor. "Oof. That looked like a tad less of a fall from the couch." He mutters, between heavy breaths, placing a hand on her side and curling up next to Mary.Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

Re: [Nexus] Home 8

It might be more apt to say that this situation is going to hell in a hand grenade, given Percilia's apparent obsession with explosives and her insistence on solely utilizing homemade explosives for her personal projects and training.
"Yes homemade explosives! I only trust explosives I craft myself! And with good reason! Most other explosives don't do what they are designed to do quickly enough!"
"So come on, Tommy! Quit whining and just do it!"
Famous last words.

"Hey, I don't leave a friend in the lurch," Shrike says, reaching to slip an arm around Tina's shoulders. Even as she gives Evan a smirk and a wink.

Aeryn returns a few moments later in a vest-like jacket, T-shirt, jeans and boots, and gives Mike an appraising look with a smile.

Tina reciprocates by trying to hug Shrike and Zamira, supporting herself on the tall Exalted. "Yeah. Probly would've gone and drank myself to death otherwise." The platinum girl sighs.

Fuuuuuudge.
No, no, forget it, Tom. Put your foot down, before this gets ugly. If ever there was a time to speak up and let her know about your moral issues with her plans, it'd be right here and now. So please Tom, please just tell her what she needs to hear and with confidence before-
"Alright, Percilia. Just be careful, okay?"
Aaaagh, nooo! Dammit, Tom! Not what you were supposed to say at all!

Tom just gave Percilia his approval to make homemade bombs! Hooray! Now something is definitely going to get all blowed up.
"Follow me to the bathroom and I'll show you how to concoct nitroglycerin."
In the bathroom!
Tom, I think there's something you really should say about this process right now before it gets too out of hand because this is a very, very bad idea.Last edited by The Alexandrian; 2011-09-18 at 04:51 PM.

"Percilia, I'm a doctor. I technically didn't take the oath, but I still don't think...I mean, I really can't...I just can't see myself making bombs for a random assault on what might be an occupied building full of innocent people who could get wounded or killed. Even assuming we don't hurt anyone, won't the local law have a thing or two to say about it?"
Tom, dammit. You're supposed to try to talk her out of this plan, not just talk your way out of learning how to build bombs! Aaagh, this is going to go terribly!

Tom isn't trying to back out of Percilia's bomb assembly training, is he? Doesn't he know how sad that would make Percilia?
"If you don't want to do this, you just have to tell me."
Percilia stares intently at the ground, not doing anything to hide the fact that she is more than a little disappointed. This experience was supposed to bring Tom and Percilia closer together, and now he's bailing!
Sad day. Sad.
Remember that Percilia spent most of her youth performing activities related to the art and execution of warfare. She finds them fun, oddly enough.

Evan smiles, glad that Fettina was feeling better. He sighs, thinking if he might fit into what Tina wants. Sure, he was solid and all that, but there was always that doubt that he was actually a good guy. Whatever, it's not like she was asking him to be her boyfriend right here and now anyways. So, for now, he just eats his pudding and looks pensive.If You need me to post somewhere, drop me a message, please

Tom sighs. "I'm sorry, but I don't. It's nothing against you, I just...I'm not good with violence and explosions and chaos. I'd really just rather avoid it all when possible, and..."
Wait, now you're apologizing for not wanting to engineer bombs in the bathroom and go on a psudeo-raid against a bunch of terrified homeless people in a smelly abandoned building, get captured by Remnant, and end up on that godsawful Penal Company led by that insane Jyarl guy?
"What if we worked on something simpler, like...I dunno, shooting from cover, or close-range defensive stuff or something? I don't think we're really going to be assaulting anything directly, but if some insane, pumpkin-headed serial killer tries to jump us in the street I'd like to be ready for it."
