HALO

Heroic
Anti-Evil and
Lawbreaking
Organization

HALO, an organization of holiness, light, fun, and roleplay!
Joining is simple, you keep your soul, and your blood... And someone else keeps their blood as well (well, usually).
All you have to do is...

Must be non-evil
Catch the shuttle to the base
You're pretty much in.

Just that!

We also had a wikispace for more information, such as member lists! But it's dead, Jim. EDIT: Not to worry, PallElendro will try to revise it!

HALO characters by player:

Spoiler

Member awards as well (since we rock!)

Spoiler

Visiting HALO
HALO is located Under the Sea! However that doesn't mean you can't visit...

There are Shuttlepods providing arrivals and departures on a regular schedule.
There are no anti-teleport wards!
If you can't teleport yourself, there are Ring Transporters, which link (among other places) the Mall of Acronymia from Inside.

NOTE

We have no banner. You, you, you, and you in the back that never gets to post because s/he is usually ignored...FIND AN AVATARIST AND SEND HIM/HER THIS WAY. Heck, even if someone here is semi-good with photoshop so he can combine our avatars into a cheesy simple banner... That'll be fine too.

Carrie kisses Dani's cheek, giggling.
How're you, cutie?

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 01:05 AM

"Doing great!" Dani giggles happily, kissing Carrie's cheek in return. "How about you?"

Beans · 12-12-2012, 01:19 AM

Carrie grins.
Good, missed you.
She snuggles close, nuzzling the smaller girl's shoulder.

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 01:33 AM

"You too. It's been way too long!"
Dani hugs Carrie even tighter. Adorably!

Beans · 12-12-2012, 01:37 AM

I declare it time for ice cream, of course.
She scoops her friend up to carry her to the kitchen!

Lellienth giggles, nuzzling her neck, at the tracing.

"Mm... That was lovely, dear. We really should get together more often..."

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 01:48 AM

"We really should," Erin agrees in a soft whisper, smiling blissfully. "I'd missed you so much..."

===

"For Truth, Justice and the Ice Cream Way!" Dani declares, pumping her fist in the air as Carrie carries her off!

Beans · 12-12-2012, 01:51 AM

Carrie sets her on the counter on arrival, opening up the freezer to see what's inside!

C'nor · 12-12-2012, 02:05 AM

"I should be around more often now... And I've missed you, too."

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 02:10 AM

Inside the fridge is: ICE CREAM!

Mostly chocolate.
And double chocolate.
And triple fudge brownie chocolate with chococlate fudge and chocolate chips...

****

Erin nods, and pulls Lellienth into a tight, snuggling embrace, seeming as if she'll never, ever want to let go.

C'nor · 12-12-2012, 02:13 AM

Lellienth holds her just as tightly, nestling closer, if that's possible, and burying her face in Erin's shoulder.

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 02:44 AM

Erin smiles, shivering at the close, sensual contact, and hums softly as she brushes Lellienth's hair.

C'nor · 12-12-2012, 02:56 AM

Lellienth smiles gently, rubbing Erin's back, though eventually, she, somewhat reluctantly, sits up, reaching for one of the instruments that have probably made their way into Erin's room over the months.

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 02:59 AM

Erin watches, propping herself up on one arm with a smile.
And indeed, there's likely a whole collection of instruments.

C'nor · 12-12-2012, 03:31 AM

For now, she picks out a bodhran, a shaker, and a guitar, murmuring some sort of command word with the fist two, and holding the second herself, then, a moment later, starts to play, the other instruments accompanying her.

As she sings, Erin might find herself mysteriously knowing the words in places, and, at those times, feeling the urge to join Lellienth in the song (namely, whenever the second voice joins in in the actual song).

"Look long enough into the eyes of any creature,
There's no knowing what you'll find.
We all seek the light one way or another,
mostly flying blind.
Everything flies at the mercy of the moonlight,
lovers more than most at times.
You've sought the light where few have ever found it,
Captured deep in ruddy eyes.
Little one seek and ye shall find.
Take care what you find.
In the ruddy eyes of a hunter by night.

Who, who, who is it dares
to find these spiders, stroke this skin?
How, how, how can you dream of
the night she spreads her webs to hold you,
shows you all she knows and lets you in.

I've heard it said none but fools will ever count on
shifting caves or flying dreams.
Foolish the heart that lights upon a love who's
never what she seems.
Shows one face at dawn and another in the twilight,
queens have worn her shape before
(queens have worn her webs before).
Lady of the nighttime, so lovely in the sunlight
leaves you wanting so much more.
Child, death is a dance on the cavern floor!

Who, who, who is it dares
to find these spiders, yet still bide.
Why, why, why set your sights on
the night she spreads her webs to hold you,
shows you all her heart and bids you fly.

Shifting caves and flying dreams
love is never what it seems
wears another skin by day
be her love and not her prey.

Who, who, who is it dares to seek the sun
and still want more?
How, how, how can you trust that she'll
open up her webs to hold you
leave brighter than you were before?"

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 05:24 AM

(D'awww...)

Erin joins in the song, her voice clear and earnest, her eyes showing how she feels, how she cares for Lellienth...and when the song ends, moves to embrace her tenderly, arms wrapping around her lover's figure.

C'nor · 12-12-2012, 07:08 AM

Lellienth holds her close, a gentle smile playing over her lips as she does, love and amusement dancing in her eyes.

"You never were one to listen to advice, were you? I suppose I ought to have expected this..."

Carrie picks the last one, the Chocolyptic Sugar Coma Reactor.
Okay, not its real name... but still.

McBish · 12-12-2012, 12:29 PM

Angie thinks for a second before responding to John.

"Unless you have anywhere you want to go I say we just stay here. I'm sure the kitchen is plenty stocked."

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 01:17 PM

"Never tell me the odds," Erin retorts, completely deadpan Han Solo voice...before breaking up into giggles.

===

Chocoholic's Lament!
Dani grins broadly at seeing Carrie's choice.

===

"Works for me."
The ghost chuckles, and presses a fine oak panel on the wall...that slips away, revealing a kitchenette!

McBish · 12-12-2012, 01:20 PM

"I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes to hide their doors. Since it is your kitchen does that mean you are going to make me lunch?"

She goes to take a seat grinning at John.

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 01:35 PM

"Some say he can walk through walls. Others say that he's the only heir to the Chairman. All we know is that he's called the Lunchinator."
BR grins back, and sets about making a pair of Dagwoods.

McBish · 12-12-2012, 02:04 PM

"So John anything new and excting going on in your life lately?"

Angie relaxes in her seat and looks him over. Sometimes she worries about him. He never leaves the base it seems, and she knows that he has had bad luck with deadtimed loved ones, something she knows is hard.

Beans · 12-12-2012, 02:19 PM

Carrie starts doling it out generously, giggling.

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 08:06 PM

"Nah, nothing much. I needle Toby from time to time and tinker, but that's about it."
John concentrates on sandwich-making, humming to himself, giving Angie a chance to look him over. It's clear he's been spending a lot of time working out.

===

Dani catches some starting-to-melt fudge on a fingertip and tries to give Carrie war paint!

Beans · 12-12-2012, 09:39 PM

Carrie giggles, handing Dani her bowl of noms to start on!

Lellienth laughs as well, though seeing as I somehow doubt that the Underdark had Star Wars, seeing as they didn't even have stars, she probably doesn't get the reference.

"Oh, that wasn't the odds against this working out, dear, just the evens..."

The Bushranger · 12-12-2012, 10:26 PM

Dani kisses Carrie's cheek, and then...digs in!
OM NOM NOM.

===

"What about the ins and outs?" Erin asks, winking.

C'nor · 12-12-2012, 10:40 PM

She shrugs, grinning, and going to kiss Erin's cheek.

"I'm sure we could do those, too, if you want to..."
