June decides it's time to get moving; she taps her heels together, turning on her Skate power, and slides toward the nearest exit; she'd rather not get caught up in this mess just yet.🔜 🆒️ 🚰

Kashi decides to go to the source. If Rebites are pouring out of the portal, then the portal needs to go away. Flying flaming headbutt time! If twenty feet of snarling, flame-breathing dragon can't knock one of these portals down, Kashi is going to be in for one major headache.Julie, everyone's nth favorite succubus, by Gulaghar.

"Just a second" Lightning Lass replies the Gamma's request. She needed to channel the rest of the energy that was left somewhere, either into the ground or.. eh. Might as well channel it at the villain.
And so a second blast of lightning. Considerably weaker then the first, but no less accurate streaks towards the retreating dinosaur and assistant as they head through the hole in the wall. Having released that energy Lass will attempt to follow Gamma towards the others.
There you go Lass. First battle in a long time.....still. You aren't too rusty.Last edited by celtois; 2012-04-16 at 05:30 PM.

[Jessica's House at Limit Street]
'Doesn't listen' describes the winged woman well. Either she didn't hear the Sergeant's shout (which is unlikely because she immediately swerved left as if anticipating an attack to accompany that shout) or she doesn't care that they are ordering her to stop.
She is well off the ground now, her feet clear the eight foot tall hedge that Dragan is hiding behind with ease. Which means she is right above him. Probably isn't good for her that she swerved left...
[Dave's Free Clinic - Training Day]
Westlanna very carefully peels off the Hair-B-Gone covered gloves and drops them in the trashcan. Then she turns back to their patient. "Uh-oh..." she murmurs softly.
Wes quickly gets some paper towels and dampens them in the sink. Then Westlanna sneaks around to the woman's side while she is preoccupied with the pain in her foot. "Hold still please," Wes requests as she reaches for the woman's hair, just behind the gal's ear.
Seems that a bit of the Hair-B-Gone goop got onto the woman's long locks. Wes very carefully tries to remove it before the goop touches the woman's scalp...
[Dave's Clinic - Day of the Showdown]
Weslanna has had ample time in the last weeks to settle into her job here at the clinic. She is making her rounds, checking a few of the longer-term patient's charts, when her pager starts beeping like crazy.
"Yipes, better get that," she comments to herself as she rushes down the hall toward surgery. Sure enough, just as her beeper warned her, someone has just been teleported right into the surgery.
It is Clarissa's first victim, with a slash running across his abdomen. Wes rushes to work. "Easy, sir, easy, lie still. You're at a hospital. You'll be ok. I'm here to help." She tells him as she rushes to stop the bleeding... and to quickly administer a drug to put him under if he isn't out already, and keep him under so he won't move and cause further damage. The cut is just deep enough that she wants Dr. Dave to check for a perforated bowel or anything else deadly instead of just closing it herself, so she sets to covering it with clean dressings and bandaging it tight to prevent further bleeding.
Then a second alarm... another patient is being teleported in.
"What now?!" She's off again, to see what the new patient brings.Expect my character 'Wanderer' to simply vanish. Please always err on the side of continuing without me. My schedule makes my posting patchy at times and I don't want to hold up other folks' fun.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44

Well, she did get a warning. Anatolij gives Dragan a quick command to non-lethally stop the fleeing figure - who he is now fairly certain has had something to do with the murder - through his headset.
The Serbian recon specialist raises his heavy pistol and fires two goober rounds, one at each wing. Should they hit, they will burst into blobs of gel that solidifies at contact with the air, hopefully immobilizing the wings.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies.

Keeper might note that Krystal doesn't seem as worried about getting hit by a bullet as the average person would. Sure, she knows it'll hurt like hell...but she's also confident that, as long as the bullet doesn't get stuck in her, her healing factor would fix the damage.
Zoo - Escape
Incoming! Ivaz yells as she sees Lightning Lass prep the second blast.
At this point, Ivaz regrets not being the one flying this thing. Sure, she could slide off, land in a shadow, and be gone. That'd be easy. But, she had the urge to stick with this little Sino. At least for a while.
So, she'll bring her scimitar in front of her, as if to block the blast. She knows it'll still hurt. But, some of it should disperse through the blade, doing less damage.
And it's not like this'll be her first time getting electrocuted.

The Wight hisses at the poor clueless rube and begins to circle him! Slowly creeping around the guy as he flails his weapon ineffectually. Once he follows its movements far enough that arm that got chopped off begins to wriggle.
...and crawl toward him.
Unless he notices the limb will try to seize him by the ankle!
This...
Really won't acomplish much. Aside from destracting him. Should he take his eyes off the Wight for even a moment the horrible undead monster will pounce with all the ferocity of a one-armed horrible undead monster!

[Arkham Street - RANDOM ENCOUNTER DETECTED!]
Connie builds a level 2 Cannon Tower! Said tower opens fire on the nearest portal! KABOOM!
The impact knocks an enormous number of Blokz off the portal, shaking it to its foundation! The Rebites (at least the ones that aren't blocked in by Freddy's engineering project) all charge toward the cannon tower with great fury!
Then comes the silly dragon's headbutt! Between that impact and the pounding of the Cannon Tower one of the six rifts is destroyed! Hazzah!
MOAR Blokz for everyone!
Having seen the effectiveness of the Cannon Tower Freddy decides to erect one of his own, though sadly he only has enough Blokz for a measly Level 1.
It begins to open fire on his surrounded portal, aided by all the anti-infantry fire from the Necromancer's! Looks like that portal won't last much longer either.Warning! Random Encounter™ detected!

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44
[Jessica's House - Limit Street]
The goop smacks into one of the two nine-foot long wings, sending the woman careening off course, but still gaining altitude. The second shot knocks feathers from her other wing. Unbalanced by goop only on her left wing and missing flight feathers on her right she decides to give up on flying. Just past Jessica's backyard, in the alley behind the house, mostly hidden by the tall hedge, she tucks and rolls into a crash landing.
In moments she's on her feet and running.
The odds are now evened. She's earth-bound like her pursuers. Her only advantage is a head-start.

Suddenly, canon!
Connie is disappointed with this canon. Look at it. Weak. Not snarling at all. and those things all around it... they are not getting eaten! Well, to that she decides that she will make another tower using the blokz off of that portal: a flamethrower tower. Let them all burn.
If she has leftover resources, Connie will proceed to repair her canon tower. Even if it isn't bloodthirsty, it still has satisfying explosions.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44

Cannon towers? What nonsense. Kashi is a cannon all on his own.
So without giving it another thought, the dragon will shunt all of his blokz into upgrading Freddy's cannon tower, and then gear up for another portal headbutt, aimed at the already weakened and surrounded portal Freddy had under control. It should be weak enough for him to smash through now.Julie, everyone's nth favorite succubus, by Gulaghar.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44

Sadly no flame thrower towers are created. Just another Arrow Tower.
How very sad...
The Arrow Tower begins shooting Rebites with its poorly rendered projectiles!
The Necromancer's repairs prove to be invaluable in keeping Connie's tower in action as the Rebites seem to hate it with a fiery burning passion! They hack and chip at the tower mercilessly!
Then Freddy's tower gets upgraded to a devastating Level 3 whilst the demon-fox erects a defensive wall around it!
KABLAMO!
Another two portals go down!
Only three remain now!

Grrr... fine. She will kill them all herself. She jumps off her tower, making her hellfire whip twist unrealistically to hit as many rebites as possible.
Heh... you know, it's kind of fun to kill all these little things...
Unless the rebites do something downright impressive, she will begin to laugh maniacly as she tries to slaughter them in swaths.

And now Mister Marble does the first useful thing he's done all trip. Because between all the whining about post order, it seems that some people still never got to post at all! Might need to organize these things better for next time.
Mister Marble steps forward with surprising speed, throwing himself between Gamma Girl and Talia. The knife bounces off of him harmlessly.
"That wasn't very nice." He says, crouched on the ground, in the aftermath of his roll. Though of course the exact posture doesn't matter if he's still invisible. Though I kind of rather he not be because it just kind of feels cheap at this point. Also because he's the tank, and it kind of defeats the purpose of being the tank if nobody can see you.Originally Posted by Lord Magtok

He does, in fact, note that, and files away the information that she has enhanced healing for further use, though as he has nothing similar, it doesn't really change his actions, since he's far less sanguine about his chances.
[Shadowside]
Mayhala shrugs, setting off through Shadowside at a run, which covers ground far faster than it should, especially as she seems to be flowing from the edge of one patch of light to another.
Ryhan will likely also find herself moving faster, though unless she can shadowjump and chooses to do so, Mayhala's method of travel will be pretty much impossible for her to mimic
[Zoo - My Enemies are Proving far too Illusive]
"Neither," Taila points out, frowning in his general direction - seemingly quite unfazed by her knife having just bounced off his chest, and that she's talking to someone she can't see -, and pulling out another knife, "was shunting bullets where they could hit my gastubes. Now I have to make a new pack, and my clothes are ruined, especially my jacket, since not only is it soaked in gas it has a bullet hole in it."Last edited by Lady Serpentine; 2012-04-16 at 08:04 PM.

Good thing too, that stuff removes hair PERMENANTLY.
"Hey Wes, we're going to need to keep this patient here overnight, just to make sure the entire beard was removed." he says as he stitches up her foot.
He never said that she'd be working at night...

"You should go check out the Dragon Exhibit! I just heard a ghastly noise from there. I'll stay here with David." she says to Lightning Lass.
And then she makes two portals, one near Talia's face and the other near her and then punches through one, causing her fist to come out of the other.
By the way, her portals are visible. They have a green ring surrounding them.Last edited by Mindfreak; 2012-04-16 at 08:20 PM.

June's grabbing of her shoulder, fortunately, pulls Talia out of the way of Gamma Girl's punch, and she nods in agreement.
"Yes. Yes it is. Things are getting distinctly unnice here."
With that, so long as June also does so, she turns to flee the area!Last edited by Lady Serpentine; 2012-04-16 at 08:09 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44
Teq blinks at their accomplice, adjusting his spectacles to be sure he's seeing her correctly. Smart of her, not to use his first name. The Vraal decides not to use hers at all, though he doubts calling her 'Jane Doe' would matter either way.
"Have you had time to look around?" He asks casually, glancing up and down the street for anything out of the ordinary.
I hope the two are well hidden, because a pair of Exalted on a rooftop or in a window will stick out like sore thumbs to Teq. Even impaired, his eyesight is preturnaturally good.Last edited by Murkus; 2012-04-16 at 08:26 PM.

"I'll see that a room is ready and note that on her chart." Westlanna replies.
"Sorry you'll be staying with us tonight, Miss, but it is much better to be safe than sorry, yes?" She tells the patient with a pleasant smile. Then she goes to do just as she said she would.
For now she says nothing about working overnight. Perhaps because she was expecting that when Dave said that there was no more staff, perhaps because she knows that long shifts are standard for nursing staff, or perhaps because it would be unprofessional to discuss such things in front of a patient. Which of the three will be revealed later.Expect my character 'Wanderer' to simply vanish. Please always err on the side of continuing without me.

Three more portals? You must be worse at math than Kashi is.
After this next headbutt, there'll only be two.
Well, probably, he certainly hopes so anyway. Otherwise all this blunt-force trauma to his skull will be for naught.
The rebites can, of course, try to hurl spears at him while he's flying around like a loon and clonking into things. Might not help, but it's certainly better than being slaughtered en masse by Connie. Not that it'll stop them from being slaughtered, it'll just prevent their short, brutal lives from being entirely wasted.
