[Nexus] HALO 170: You want your thread? HERE IS YOUR THREAD!!!

[Beans]

Sam permits Carrie to run away... mostly so she can watch from behind.
Then she targets Chris, sidling up and giving him a charming grin. My, you look rather handsome dressed up like that.

Carrie watches them around a corner, giggling.

[captainspazam]

Civvy took a half step back, waiting for him to make the first move.

Hoffy takes the hint, and his arm expands, aiming for the post-it on her arm, then out of nowhere it makes a turn, aiming for the heart post-it instead. Obviously, he's trying to trick Civvy, though it might not work.

Hoffy loved this game. It took almost no strategy. It was all about skill.
Which is something Hoffy doesn't really have.
Which makes it challenging for him.
Which makes it fun.

[FireFox]

While Sam waits for Chris to undeadtime, other characters (Kynegetis, Samael, Angela) are available.

What happens is very nearly exactly as follows:
Civvy tried to move her arm, but then the trick move!
Oh noe! Dodge quickly, Civvy!

Doink.

No no no.
Don't get stabbed.
Dooooodge.


So her heart post it now has orange on it.

Woohoo. One for one!

Hoffy turns his feet into toilet plungers and sticks to the wall. Shapeshifting makes this game a lot more interesting. He starts plunging around the kitchen in rapid circles.

Then, out of nowhere, he expands his arm again but this time aims for the leg.

Aaaaaaand her leg is poked, as she's spinning to try to keep up with him.

While Sam waits for Chris to undeadtime, other characters (Kynegetis, Samael, Angela) are available.

Sioda goes looking for Angela because I'm not yet up for the inevitable crying and shouting and chasing and slapping and crying that must happen when Carrie looks for Kyne.

[captainspazam]

Aaaaaaand her leg is poked, as she's spinning to try to keep up with him.

He then un-plunges and falls face first into the ground. He stands up and wipes kitchen floor dirt off his face.

You try making a move, Civvy. Come on now, no holding back! He says with a manly giggle.

For a game with no strategy, he sure does make a lot of strategy.

[FireFox]

Kyne heads often to practice her Sulking. She's going to need it.
Angela is... around somewhere. Maybe studying.


A tall, silver-haired man with a bored expression on his attractive face walks into the kitchen and stares with poorly concealed surprise. Because there's a giant piece of toast running around the walls on plungers, poking a really hot, pink haired goddess in the leg with a popsicle. Dammit, what the Hell is wrong with this place?

"But~"
Civvy started to say, when the other person walked in.

"Maybe what's wrong with it is. . .
Is.

Um . . ."
Civvy, that sentence had just a great start to it.
All full of mock anger and stuff.
"Is just because you don't have the understanding of a piece of toast!"

[Beans]

Sioda comes to sit by her if she's sitting.
How are you, love?

[captainspazam]

Hoffy pauses, and then waves at the man.
Oh, hello there! Would you care to play Ninja Bear with us? There's still a cherry tasting one in the ice box.

[FireFox]

The foxgirl is startles out of her day dream and makes a quick attempt to look like she really is studying. Then she gives up and tries to hug her girlfriend. Oh! I'm fine, sweetheart. How are you?


The sense a toast has? Samael looks at Civvy, then at Hoffy, then back at Civvy. I'll take that as a compliment, kid. And then he looks back at Hoffy, feeling that he's stepped into a particularly surreal dream. What in the name of the hugest parts of all the fertility gods are you talking about?

[Beans]

Sioda giggles and strokes her ears.
I'm good, a little tired from the afternoon training I did. What were you not studying there?
She smiles.

Ninja Bear! Here, let me explain...

Hoffy explains: ((here's the old post that explained it))

Oh yes! It's really fun!

Hoffy jumps onto the counter to enhance the explanation.
It's a game were you tape a small piece of paper to all your vital spots, and try to mark all of your opponents vital spots with markers.

He jumps over to the other counter miming a marker strike with his sushi.
The game was originally played by ninjas to practice kunai strikes. Except, they used bear poop to mark on each other. That's why it's called: "Ninja Bear"

He jumps down and finishes his sushi.
Me and my brother used to play it all the time!

Care to join Mr...uh... He says edging for a name or something.

[FireFox]

Just some EMT stuff. Angela throws the boring book on c-spine injuries or something away and then climbs into the paladin's lap. How's your training going?


... What vital spots does a piece of bread have? Samael is horribly confused! Also, too rude to give his name.

[captainspazam]

... What vital spots does a piece of bread have? Samael is horribly confused! Also, too rude to give his name.

Well I put post-its on my "body" where vitals would be. Hoffy says all proud and stuff.

You get used to me being toast. I have that effect on people. He says with a grin.

[Beans]

Good, good. She kisses her head, though deadtime approaches soon.
I've been building mental endurance, whichmeans watching a lot of very strange Japanese shows.

[FireFox]

Right, well, I'll pass. I'm already really good at killing people by hitting their vital spots; I don't need to practice. Samael grins.


Oh, cool. Angela snuggles closer. Let me know when you're working on concentration. I could really challenge you with that.

[Beans]

Sioda giggles, kisses her nosetip, and deadtimes.

[captainspazam]

Right, well, I'll pass. I'm already really good at killing people by hitting their vital spots; I don't need to practice. Samael grins.

Hoffy grew sad.
Aw, that's too bad. The game's all in good fun. It's about skill, endurance, and SUPRISE!

Hoffy used his arm expansion again and aimed for Civvy's neck this time.

[FireFox]

The assassin suddenly reaches out to try to grab Hoffy's arm before he can touch Civvy. And then he tries to break the arm as casually as you might break a stick. Surprise.

Samael grabs his arm and tries to break it, but instead his arm bends like rubber. Probably because it is rubber.
Hoffy smiles with excitement.
Wow, that was cool! The way you stopped my attack like that...Awesome!

And there goes Hoffy, impressed as always.

[Beans]

Sioda is still with Angela, most likely.

[Mee]

Well, to her credit, Civvy had managed to take a half step back, so she probably wouldn't have gotten 'stabbed'!
(Okay; yeah she would have.)

"NOO~"
She started to cry, as Hoffy's arm was broken, but then it went all rubbery.
so she just stopped, and blinked at it a few times.

[FireFox]

Hmph. Samael frowns at the rubbery arm, then drops it and looks over at Civvy. What?


Angela is still sitting in Sioda's lap and is probably trying to start making out with her for awhile.

[Mee]

Hmph. Samael frowns at the rubbery arm, then drops it and looks over at Civvy. What?

"You didn't have to try to break his arm, you know."

[Lex-Kat]

[HALO Entrance]

"This guy whose name I can't remember shot something into his hand. I chased him here and we dealt with him and I think Reinholdt was going to get it taken out whatever it was. I didn't detect any poison though," Erin says, looking concerned.

It was Them..... something or other. How did you "deal" with him? Melody asks, very curious.

[captainspazam]

[Kitchen]

Hoffy retracts his arm. His arm expansion trick was created by morphing his bones into a giant spring and his skin into elastic rubber. That's how his arm stretches. Otherwise his arm would have broken no doubt.

He rubs his arm.
Shame you don't want to play. You're really good!

[Beans]

Hmph. Samael frowns at the rubbery arm, then drops it and looks over at Civvy. What?


Angela is still sitting in Sioda's lap and is probably trying to start making out with her for awhile.

And I don't notice this until dinnerdedtiem looms on the horizon.
I'm so S-M-R-T smart.
She kisses back, petting her ears.
Pet.
Petpet.
