In the deepest, darkest corners of AMEN... - Bunker

Not, to say that this isn't funny to me, but how long are going to keep at this? never happen, your crazy, there was no talking there.

Well maybe a eye opened in the ceiling for a short while, but that's long gone. Your not going crazy, just siting there pushing a button for 10 years.

[ThePhantom]

[Formerly Gordon's Office]

Clarissa moves to twist her finger and release the lock only to find that it won't budge for her! Dang! Her finger isn't generating much of an electrical current, so it probably won't provide the energy required to zap the desk open! She doesn't realize this, of course, not being an expert at lockpicking by even the most sardonic or loose definitions of the word "expert." She does recognize (and by that I mean assume) that Ilphy will be furious with her if she wrecks her new office, for Clarissa does believe that Ilphy will be transferring all of her stuff into this chamber, even though that does not seem to be the case in the slightest.

She's going to resort to attempting to brute forcing the lock open. Not with pure muscle, however. That'd make too much of a mess. 'Twould be far too brazen and conspicuous an action for a member does not consider the relationship between herself and Ilpholin anything but the polar opposite of friendly. She's going to attempt to melt the lock open via the process of trying to confidently administering "judicious" doses of highly corrosive acid to the delicate inner workings of the lock. She hopes that a simple secretion of the stuff through her skin while it remains lodged in the lock will do the trick! If the materials composing the lock are for the most part chemically inert, the acid ploy will probably fail miserably. If the lock is extremely sturdy, this probably won't work either.

If this "eating away the lock" scheme doesn't work out in Clarissa's favor, she's going to attempt to rip her finger out of the lock and try to compromise the structural stability of the desk by trying to punch the writing surface of it violently with her fists! Grr! She'll be frustrated and swearing on and off if this happens! She wants the files and documents inside of that desk and possibly won't give up until she secures them!

Well, the acid is a mistake, as that makes so it can't be opened with a key anymore. So now the desk is getting pounded, which causes one of the screens to rise up from the desktop. After a moment, the screen shows Gordon.

"Step away from my desk, before the other defense systems turn on."

Gorden was more lively than this

[Shadowcaller]

[Ilpholin's Office - Cybil]

"Stay away from Inside, try not to draw too much attention to what we're doing, and please avoid killing anyone in the base that's actually useful if it can be helped."

[Ilpholin's Office - Cybil]

"While I suspect some might deserve it, I don't feed on allies, I find my own victims. You don't need to worry about that." The earth vampire replies with a shake of her head.

[Reinholdt]

Bunker

Nearby a flower in a mechanical suit is walking, singing a tune.
It's extremely dirty, so I won't repeat it here.

But his random wanderings seem to be taking him towards this very spot!

[Ilpholin's Office - Cybil]

"I believe that's it then. You're not an official member yet, but feel free to stay around. I will meet with Lavthos very soon." Ilpholin says, standing to give Cybil a slight bow.

[Hallways]

Mister Squiggles is looking for Mr. E who supposedly has information to give him. Least according to what Mister Squiggles was told.

[happyturtle]

Main Room

Moff is here, waiting to go on a hunt for DRAGON TREASURE!

He's got his dragon treasure hunting boots on, and is ready to go!

[Shadowcaller]

[Ilpholin's Office - Cybil]

"Fair enough, I will be at your service if you need me for anything." Cybil replies as she returns the bow and then leaves the room.

If there is nothing else she heads out to the main room to... hang out I guess. She really don't have anything to say to Moff and I doubt he have anything to say to her either.

[Lord Magtok]

Main Room

Magtok is also here! He doesn't have any treasure-hunting boots though, and treasure-hunting whips is more Ilpholin's sort of thing, so he's just going as his usual cyborgy self.

[Reinholdt]

Main Room

Well now's Cybil's chance to go on an exciting theft!

Anyways DarkRed arrives and looks over the group of people who have gathered for this, including any stragglers who wanted to jump in. "Alright. If everyone's ready, let's get going."

The henchman will exit the base and lead the way! He'll only go as far as the entrance to Gordon's hideout where the hoard is supposed to be. The Phantom can take over from here.

[Ilpholin's Office -> Halls]

Ilpholin steps out to go tracking down those members who might try to shirk their interviews.

[The Bushranger]

[Halls -> Ilpholin's Office]

Like Becky!

Who just so happens to be sauntering down the hallway, humming to herself, in the direction of her LordLady and Master'sMistress' Office!

[Reinholdt]

[Ilph's Office - Becky]

Becky was actually one of the lowest, if not the lowest on the list of those Ilpholin was concerned about in relation to this.

All the same, Ilpholin sees Becky coming and steps back into her office.

[The Bushranger]

[Ilph's Office - Becky]



And Becky saunters in a moment later, straightens up, and gives a jaunty salute!

"I heard you're doing interviews for...positions, O Fearless Leader?"

[Mindfreak]

Bunker
The flower may notice that the bunker has a large door that's sealed shut, with a compute next to it giving out data and, better yet, the camera feed on the inside.
It looks like the girl inside is currently running on the treadmill.

[Reinholdt]

[Ilph's Office - Becky]

"Don't call me O Fearless Leader. It's degrading." And false! She has fear. Just knows how to channel it better than others.

"But you wish to show me how good you are at different positions?" This piques Ilph's interests.

[Bunker]

Whoa. Whoa, wait a second.

There's a hot girl. Running.
Whether or not she's actually hawt is irrelevant.

Stu drops everything to watch this development with interest.
*staaaaaaaaare*

[Mindfreak]

Bunker
Though she is actually hot. Though she's about thirty and looks like she's 20.

And she just continues running while lines of text say over and over again: Is the world still alive?

[The Bushranger]

[Ilph's Office - Becky]

"Oh, alright. Would Mistress be better?" Becky asks, smiling - then nods. "Oh yes. I'd love very much to demonstrate my...flexibility."

...Becky, this is an interview, you know? Right? Right?

[Reinholdt]

Bunker

Stu fully intends to keep watching her lewdly like the horrible pervert he is until he or she dies from death.
>.<

Which thoroughly reminds me why he deserves every single time he gets set on fire. Stupid flower.

[Ilph's Office - Becky]

"Well you'd better show me how flexible you are then." Ilpholin says. Her desk is empty of interfering objects if Becky needs it for some obscure reason.

[Lord Magtok]

Bunker

A MagClone happens to be passing by as well, and gives Stu a rather nasty look as the flower stares.

"Leave her alone, Rose, and don't even think of letting her out. She's doing important AMEN stuff, and needs to concentrate."

Yes, important AMEN stuff. Because obviously running on a treadmill is absolutely vital to everything, and not just a preposterously cruel prank that Magtok's simply too lazy to bring to an end. Magtok leaves the area just as quickly as he entered it.

[Mindfreak]

Bunker
The woman suddenly stops running, dries her sweat off with a towel, and leaves the camera's view. Only for the view to be switched to seeing her walk into what appears to be a bathroom.
The door closes, and that's all.
Perhaps Stu should try to bang the keyboard, perhaps that'll let him see what's going on in that bathroom.

[The Bushranger]

[Ilph's Office - Becky]

"Well you'd better show me how flexible you are then." Ilpholin says. Her desk is empty of interfering objects if Becky needs it for some obscure reason.

Totally obscure and unexplained reasons that cause Becky, smirking, to turn her back to the desk, lift her arms slowly above her head, pause for a moment, then lean back...stretching...stretching back over the desk like a gymnast to grin at Ilpholin from her rather...flexed...position, perhaps.

[Reinholdt]

[Ilph's Office - Becky]

Actually, the desk is mostly decorative. Ilph just likes to keep it nice and clear.

Perhaps so that she can kiss stretched out, upside down Becky on the lips. Then the neck. Then... well Ilph is working her way towards that curtain right over there.

Bunker

"Yeah, she needs to concentrate on Stu!" Stu counters, looking at the door for a handle. And if none, he tries smacking on it with his metal fist. Cause that's a surefire way to get doors open.

[Hattish Thing]

Lobby

Marciano Louv're returns, He flashes in the middle of the room with some special wormhole technology. He appears followed by Grantaire and hopefully the newly purchased Pantherbot. He's surprisingly happy. Grantaire carries a large sack. Marciano walks over to the door to Ilpholin's office. The rude and impolite halfling tries to open the door. Oblivious to what is going on inside. >.<

Marciano wears his normal royal blue petticoat, golden epaulettes, and a large hat. He's ugly....with greasy blonde hair, a large mole, and a horrid set of rotten decaying teeth...

[The Bushranger]

[Ilpholin's Office - Becky]

Nice and clear and clean and...

...well, Becky's kisses return Ilpholin's in turn, as she lets her hands wander...flexibily. And she's certainly reaching for the curtain too, oblivious to anything other than hawt drownymphdemon hawtness.

[Reinholdt]

[Ilpholin's Office - Becky]

And so the curtain will drop on Becky's interview.

If Marciano arrives in that particular timeline, he'll find... the door quite locked. Ilpholin didn't much care for the last time someone barged in. If he arrives a bit later though, he can walk right in without any trouble, with an Ilpholin waiting behind the desk as if waiting for someone to do just that!

[Hattish Thing]

Door to Ilpholin's Office

Well, Marciano could open locked doors...but he had no reason too...though he did wonder what she was doing...he doubted she was napping....He snaps at Grantaire, who opens his bag and takes out that expensice chair. Marciano sits in it staring at the door. He sips a martini that Grantaire fixed for him...not only is Grantaire a bodyguard! He makes martinis! Sooo...he waits...and sips...and wonders.

[Reinholdt]

[Ilpholin's Office - Becky]

Some time later...

The curtain rises.
"Well I think that's everything I needed to know."

Ilpholin believes she has a good handle on Becky's motivations and personality as it is. Anyways, she gets herself dressed again.

[Mindfreak]

Bunker

"Yeah, she needs to concentrate on Stu!" Stu counters, looking at the door for a handle. And if none, he tries smacking on it with his metal fist. Cause that's a surefire way to get doors open.

Bunker
Strangely enough, there is a large valve on the door that one would turn to open it.
As soon as he does open it however, the woman in the shower is alerted on her wristband that someone has entered the compound.
However, her wristband is on the counter, so Stu has a good 20 minutes till she realizes what's going on.

[The Bushranger]

[Ilpholin's Office - Becky]

Becky takes a bit longer to get dressed, being somewhat more pleasantly exhausted. But does so in time! "I'd be happy to provide....further demonstrations whenever desired."

[ThePhantom]

[Hallways]

Mister Squiggles is looking for Mr. E who supposedly has information to give him. Least according to what Mister Squiggles was told.

Finding Mr E, is not the easiest thing. Even Gordon had a hard time keeping track of his spymaster. However, since Ilpholin said that he could do what he wanted, he's set up a weblike matterial in some of the hallways, trapping lesser henchmen for his own amusements. He's not currently visible, but messing around with one of his webs should bring him out of hiding.

Main Cabin

And so, its off to the plot thread.
