[Nexus] AMEN XLI: eXtra Large Injury

[Zefir]

Main Room

Stu will notice that some water is flowing around him and over his body cleaning him up. the water fully cleans him from the glue, so he should be free now.

For the succubuss, well I said it she will beginn to burn, she standed up as far as I understand it and since I said there are flames she will get burnt.

As Zefir notes that she isn't likly to talk he walks away, can't clean her up when she acts faster then him.

[ThirdEmperor]

Gordon's Office

Prometheus arrives here, and knocks on the door.

[Reinholdt]

Main Room

Julie's eye twitches a bit, looks like she may have had enough.

"For your own good I'd do what he says Zefir, because let me just tell you something, I've about had it with this whole situation. You have the nerve to take out your issues with 'Cid on me then fine, but be prepared to see hell come your way."

She pivots to pin Prometheus with an unhealthy glare, "You think you're all that? You think that just because you have a few notches on your bedpost that you can dance the two step with us? You took down one of us in the middle of your base surrounded by allies and suddenly that makes you qualified to hunt us down like some kind of animal that only lives at your whim? Don't be ignorant hun."

Finally, she raises her sword and points it directly at Magtok, "And You! I will go to your club, dance on your tables, and you will pay me for it because I'm a darn fine dancer. No buts."

She whips the foil up behind her back in a complicated motion that severs the remaining glue between her and Stu, then turns to him, "Now I do believe we still need to get better acquainted. What's say we head on down to Maggie's and you can drool over me for a bit."

((Edit: Whoops, alright, so I forgot to add this bit the first time around, thanks for the save Zefir.))

Of course as she does all this her shirt is ignited by the flames she just stood into, and if she doesn't do anything about it she may have to deal with being... indecent very soon. The flames themselves are of no issue to her, unless they're above a certain temperature she can't even feel them.

Main Room

Stu will notice that some water is flowing around him and over his body cleaning him up. the water fully cleans him from the glue, so he should be free now.

For the succubuss, well I said it she will beginn to burn, she standed up as far as I understand it and since I said there are flames she will get burnt.

As Zefir notes that she isn't likly to talk he walks away, can't clean her up when she acts faster then him.

Stu is free one way or another!
The succubus might be on fire though.
Either way, Stu scoots over so he can stand up without getting caught on fire. And then stands up.

What he does next depends entirely on FIRE!!

[Slii Arhem]

((I editted my last post to reflect the fire, which I had forgotten to note in my rush to cram so many things into my reply.))

Julie may notice Stu's aversion to the flames, even though they don't bother her, and she'll momentarily turn ethereal and walk out of the inferno. She flashes the flower a saucy smile, "Well, seems like I'm a bit hot and bothered, maybe we should skidaddle while no one is trying to kill me."

[Reinholdt]

Oh. Right, there it is.
Course a demon wouldn't care about flames. Or devil. I never remember which one the succubi are.

"Mybedroomisrightthisway." Stu goes to grab Julie's hand and lead her to his room. Which is not in the direction of the casino at all.

[Slii Arhem]

Main Room

"Ah ah ah! Not quite yet. Someplace public first. If for no other reason than to convince your mommy that I'm not about to steal you away. Maggie can be our chaperone."

Wait...

Did she just call Prometheus his Mommy?

[Reinholdt]

Main Room

"Ummm... what the hell are you talking about? Let's just go have sex."

Stu doesn't understand why this has to be so complicated!

[Slii Arhem]

Main Room

Julie slaps her forehead in frustration and let's out a low growl, "You know, it's people fine you that take all the fun out of seduction. Fine, lets go loverboy, but I swear you owe me a night on the town for this." She'll extend her hand and let him lead her away, but she's muttering under her breath.

"How does this even work? I'm pretty sure he doesn't even have... but the powersuit...?"

[Reinholdt]

[Main Room -> Stu's Room]

The less you know, the happier you'll be!

Stu will lead the way to his room, close the door behind him, and then proceed to try to do curtainy things that require dropping curtains.

[Slii Arhem]

Stu's Room

He is obliged!

Some unspecified amount of time later, Julie is stuffing a bit of brimstone into a pink and black pipe before igniting it with a touch. She takes a deep inhale before puffing out a few lingering clouds of yellow smoke.

"Not bad Sug, not great, but not bad. If I had to put a number to you, it'd probably be a six."

Six, if you didn't know, is slightly better than a shoggoth, but a bit worse than 72 virgins.

[Reinholdt]

Stu's Room

I never understood how he manages to pull these things off...
That which should not be.

"Throw a nine in there and you have a deal."

[Slii Arhem]

Stu's Room

That actually manages to get a laugh out of her, "My aren't we eager. Do me a favor hun, don't ever change. But in this case it's business before pleasure." and after pleasure, and in the middle of pleasure, "You've stirred up a mess of trouble in the down under. Alot of demons are looking for your head, but a few like me are more willing to have your back. All I'm saying is be careful with yourself Sug." she arches her back ever so slightly, "Now lets get back down to business."

Oh my, more attempts to close the curtains! Julie you shameless wench.

At The Door

Rocid walks in at the head of a mob of humanoid slime people and starts attempting to find Gordon's office. Timewise, he should show up awhile after Prometheus and Gordon start their conversation.

[Reinholdt]

Stu's Room

Stu would probably ask what the heck she's talking about in reference to demons after his head.

But he's always been easily distracted. More curtains fall.

[ThePhantom]

Gordon's Office

"Come in."

(Warning, can't stay on long, going to make dinner soon.)

[Zefir]

Main Room

Well Zefir is still here and watches TV.

[ThePhantom]

(I'm back.)

[ThirdEmperor]

Gordon's Office

Prometheus walks in, and sets a small plastic box containing the listening device he retrieve from the couch on Gordon's desk. The plastic is thick enough that it should be impossible for the device to hear anything. "This is what was leaking information to Remnant. I do not know who placed it, but I have suspicions. It would likely be someone familiar with technology, and it's unlikely to have been a magic user, any mage would have used magic. The Hatter is definitely not a suspect, as he is indisputably loyal to AMEN, but Orrey, Stu, Magtok, Zefir and Moff are, and there may be others I've not heard about."

[ThePhantom]

Gordon's Office

Gordon picks up the box, and looks at it.

"I think we can rule out the Moff, while he doesn't like me, betraying AMEN is too out of character for him. And while Magtok could do this, any listening device of his would have been much harder to find."

Gordon sighs, at least they found this before the plots started up.

"Now, Prometheus, while normally I would look into this right away, there's the party coming up, and an announcement. So, if you wouldn't mind, I would like to put searching for the spy on the backburner for now."

[Slii Arhem]

Outside Gordon's Office

Rocid nods to one of the constructs and it steps up to deliver a sharp knock on the door. Then he'll wait patiently for those inside to conclude their business and admit him.

Stu's Room

Julie is fully dressed and almost ready to leave, but she turns back to Stu one last time, "Now you remember what I said about taking care of yourself sweetie. Wouldn't want this to be a one time thing after all."

[Reinholdt]

Stu's Room

"Oh it wasn't. And don't worry about me. I got it covered." He drinks lots of water every day!

[VampireRot]

[Main Room]

Growling angrily, a very unhappy vampire kicks open the front door and stomps into the room. The fancily-dressed pale man is shriveled and emaciated, the usual signs of having just regenerated his body after a death.

"There's a traitor among us! They bloody knew I was coming!"

Rot glares around at anyone who happens to be in his line of sight.

[Zefir]

[Main Room]

Zefir is here. and look at him.

"What? And where is my bag of bombs?"

[VampireRot]

[Main Room]

Zefir gets an angry glare.

"I just said, Remnant knew what I was going to try! Even though I went to the boring section during the day, they knew exactly where I was and got me. I hope the bombs blew up in their faces, but that's probably too much to ask for."

Rot is still stomping around and waving his arms furiously. It's quite a spectacle.

[Zefir]

[Main Room]

"So they got the bag. Damn and since the news didn't call out a mass murder bombing I doubt they blew up."

[Lord Magtok]

Main Room

Magtok raises an eyebrow at Zefir, and then turns towards Rot.

"Those were Zeffy's bombs you brought with you, weren't they, Rot?"

...Wait. Just what is Magtok implying here?

[VampireRot]

[Main Room]

"Hmm... Yes..."

Rot's eyes darken, and he glances at Magtok.

"I think I know who the traitor is."

He pauses dramatically to look around the room, his upper lip curling back to reveal his fangs. His gaze drifts over to Zefir...


And then he spins and points at Magtok.

"It was you, you cursèd cyborg! You have instant communication with all your clones, and I bet you have one permanently hanging around Remnant so you can warn them of our plots! You didn't need to blow up anything for your bloody casino, I know it's already opened, you just wanted to keep up evil appearances with us! So you came up with a plan and then just aborted it! You're the only one with the technology, that bloody satellite, to see that I was going to go anyway after you announced that, so you just told Remnant and had them get me! You... You... You DO-GOODER!"

[Reinholdt]

[Main Room]

Stu just stepped out into the Main Room too. Poor Magtok.
"Whoa. Magtok. You got a lot of guts betraying this organization like that. But it wouldn't be the first time you left your friends for the good guys, now would it?"

Oh yes. Stu still remembers that GLoG incident.

[Zefir]

[Main Room]

Zefir first seems confused.

"Eh... as strange as it will sound, but I think Rot is right."

Go Rot Go Rot GOOOO Rot

[Slii Arhem]

Main Room

What's this? Julie was just on her way out the door when she heard the news.

"Oh Maggie, I don't know if I can work for a no-bad-nick. You must be terribly crushed, but don't worry, we'll always be friends! Keep in touch Stewbaby, Ciao!"

She saunters out, revelling in the chaos.

[Lady Serpentine]

Karyana, back in her normal form (see avatar) relaxes again. She'd been worried that Rot thought it was her...

She's sitting on one of the couches, probably for the purpose of annoying Prometheus if he enters. And because it's more comfortable than standing around.

Oh. And it's easier to drink from henchmen when you don't have to worry about them falling over from blood loss. So that's the other reason.
