[Nexus] HALO 174: Just when you think you're not in Kansas anymore, turns out you are - Page 5

I haven't seen her play too much but when she does she seems to be improving.

--

Bobbie doesn't say anything for the moment.

FireFox · 10-02-2012, 11:40 AM

I'm not being mean! That's just how my people talk with each other. She looks offended. Why are you being culturally insensitive?

Oh. Yeah, that's one big catastrophe all right. A real life tragedy in action. Rho frowns and continues writing.

McBish · 10-02-2012, 11:44 AM

"I am working with some people to get a series of underground bunkers back in livable self sustaining condtions. Or at least as close as we can get them. Something similar to Remnant's emergency bunkers. Plus having more fresh food getting produced in the Red Zone is something I have been pushing forward for awhile. I actually got a couple of rooftop gardens going recently.

I would love your help if you have some time."

((By the way I am at work and may have long pauses inbetween posts.))

Beans · 10-02-2012, 11:45 AM

Because that doesn't excuse being unpleasant to someone who has no idea why you're being unpleasant to them!
---
Carrie sighs and watches her write quietly.

FireFox · 10-02-2012, 11:56 AM

I see... And, uh, what kind of people are we talking about here? The completely impoverished kind who have absolutely nothing to give in return, making this a charity case? Or the hungry kind of people who actually have something to exchange for lots of food or have enough power to cause trouble and potentially turn on me? Tobias isn't averse to doing charity work, but he's equally fond of getting some advantage to his actions and not empowering possible threats.

Hey, bite me, kitty cat. Agatha flips her off. I can do whatever I want.

Rhapsodia sets her pen down and admires her pretty writing. There. Do you want to read it?

C'nor · 10-02-2012, 11:57 AM

Lelli smiles somewhat.

"Good... I'll have to listen to her again at some point, then."

Pesty takes her up on that offer. Attempted NOMP!

If it's the Boudica/Kyne one, she takes just a peek. If it's the one she just requested, she'll actually read it.

InyutheBeatIs · 10-02-2012, 12:07 PM

((Reading through these posts I have many questions. Who is Aurea again? Who is Boudica again? Why is there a person who writes fanfiction about real fictional people?))

Chris can be available or undeadtimed, depending on which time the scene he's in is...in.

FireFox · 10-02-2012, 12:09 PM

Gah! Agatha flails her fists against the crazy catgirl.

It's the BoudicaxKyne one. The quick peek shows that it's well written and the BDSM is just kinky, not terrifying. Although it may be hard to enjoy reading if you know that it's based on actual, horrible abuse. It's like Rho tried to take something awful and find something nice in it. Which just happens to be sex. ... Yeah, she's definitely an Aspect of Angela all right.

(Shhh... Don't worry Inyu. Don't worry about any of this. Just relax... and open your mind to the Nexus.))

McBish · 10-02-2012, 12:09 PM

"The people I am working with have lived in this city for a long time. They often range from wanting to just stay alive to actually wanting to make the city a better place. I doubt you have to worry about problems from them, they are closer to a church group then anything else."

Not that there has never been a trouble making religious orginization before.

"It wouldn't be entirely chairty either. I'm funding the project and would be more then happy to talk about paying to get a system set in place."

Beans · 10-02-2012, 12:14 PM

Carrie only manages to look for a few seconds.
It's.
I can't really judge it well.
---
Pesty lets go and steps back, a precursor to a bruise rising on her forehead.
Bleh.
Your hand tastes terrible. Like a mean jerk. Which you are.
---
Carrie might still be with acting-weird-Chris?

FireFox · 10-02-2012, 12:20 PM

HALO doesn't need money. What we need is to not be so damned blind and deaf, with nothing better to do than fight with each other. GLoG is the group that does charity work. We're supposed to kill bad guys. Tobias proclaims bitterly. All right, just tell me where the bunkers are and I'll go take a look...

Rho sighs and casts a spell to burn the papers to ash. Pretty horrible, right? I don't even know why I tried. Poor Kyne can't get a happy ending even if someone attempted to write her one.
<.<

Agatha swears at Pesty, then starts to storm off.

InyutheBeatIs · 10-02-2012, 12:21 PM

Acting-Somewhat-Differently Chris can still be with Carrie.

Beans · 10-02-2012, 12:24 PM

Carrie just buries her face in her hands.
Can we stop talking about Kyne before I put your pencil in my eye already?
---
Other Carrie blinks.
You're acting a little odd...
---
Pesty swears after her.
BUTTASS!
Awesomely.

"I am?" Chris raises an eyebrow at this. "How so, love?"

FireFox · 10-02-2012, 12:32 PM

Sure. Sorry. Rho fidgets for a few seconds. So what is it you like about Aurea?

DoomITP · 10-02-2012, 12:35 PM

Bobbie can't help but giggle at Pesty's final swear.

--

Yeah. Pesty's quite the fan of Bobbie too.

Beans · 10-02-2012, 12:37 PM

I dunno, it just seems a little different...
Bleh, explaining is hard.
---
Carrie sighs.
Well, she's really smart, and it was really kind of her to help me with that Greek stuff even if I was totally lost after the words "no ablative"... and, um, she's gorgeous.
((Bleh, deadtime approacheth))

Chris kind of contemplates this for a moment, before shrugging a bit and going back to rubbing Carrie's back. "Want to go somewhere else, dear?" And this particular Chris will deadtime with Carrie if she does.

In the event that other characters want to interact with Chris, plotclones can be provided. We know return to your scheduled programming.

"Huh. I didn't know Bobbie does music... What kind does she play, and what instrument?"

FireFox · 10-02-2012, 12:45 PM

Hmm... Rho leans back in her chair and tries to think of a plausible sounding reason why Aurea would want to hook up with Carrie. Or anyone at all, really.

Other characters are available.

DoomITP · 10-02-2012, 12:47 PM

I meant that Pesty adores Bobbie to a hilariously ridiculous degree.

Beans · 10-02-2012, 12:47 PM

Carrie-with-Chris nods and deadtimes.
---
Carrie-with-Rho deadtimes too.

"Ah. Alright. And in that case, I suppose I qualify as a potential fan of hers, then..."

"I understand, and we might be able to work something out later to help out with that."

Angie makes a mental note to show Tobias some of the hidden bunkers she has been getting set up as well. But right now she isn't talking to anyone about those in public.

She takes out one of her cards from her pockets and writes an address in the Red Zone.

"Thanks. I know this isn't really something HALO would normamly do anymore but you are one of the strongest druid's I know in the city."

InyutheBeatIs · 10-02-2012, 12:52 PM

Well, Chris was thinking about talking to Tobias, though I'm not sure if you want to roleplay two Tobias's talking serious business.

In the event you don't, Chris will try and figure out a way to contact Kyne. Probably a matter as simple as a phone number, he guesses.

How'd that come about? You haven't known Bobbie long.

FireFox · 10-02-2012, 12:59 PM

There's a powerful Druid in GLoG who could handle this. Not as great as I am, of course, but he loves doing medical work for people who need it. If you ever need a magical doctor, look for him at GLoG. Tobias takes the card and pockets it. I'll stop by soon.

Kyne doesn't have a phone, nor is she in a place where phones work. But, seeing as she's a Goddess, prayer would work.

McBish · 10-02-2012, 01:04 PM

"Good to know. Thanks for your help.

How have you been?"

I honestly think that the last time they saw each other face to face and talked was when he made her leader of HALO before leaving. Obviously a lot has happened since then.

Chris kinda sits there for a moment. "Oh...right." He goes to find a quiet place out of the way where he won't be disturbed, sits down, and tries to send a prayer to Kyne.

Oh Kynegetis, are thou, er, present? It's me, Chris.
