[19:42] * Crusty Old Seaman faces the other direction while talking to everyone, and the deck is cluttered with empty barrels to hide in for the benefit of anybody else sneaking aboard.
[19:42] *** The fog gets thicker.
[19:42] * Crusty Old Seaman shoves off.
[19:42] <Crusty Old Seaman> Well, it used to be a coal-mining island, long ago. But when gasoline replaced coal, all the mines shut down.
[19:42] * Crusty Old Seaman steers them out into the ocean.
[19:43] * Eilean nod slowly...sticking close to amanda
[19:43] * John Constantine watches everything with a sort of blank disinterest
[19:43] <Crusty Old Seaman> Place is absurdly dangerous. The buildings are collapsing, there are no places to land. It was going to be considered a historic site. There were even tours to the safer parts of the island.... well, at least until the tourboats started sinking under mysterious circumstances.
[19:44] * Crusty Old Seaman turns out to see as the last rays of the sun begin to disappear.
[19:44] <Eilean> sinking?
[19:44] <Crusty Old Seaman> They said that the owner of the last tour boat to quit decided to close up shop after "an accident."
[19:44] <Crusty Old Seaman> Yeah. Always being closed to deaths in the family....
[19:45] <Crusty Old Seaman> Anyway...
[19:45] <Solarchos> (( Testing ))
[19:45] <Eilean> ..sea monsters?
[19:46] <Crusty Old Seaman> - Nobody knows. -
[19:46] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Pirhana?
[19:46] * Crusty Old Seaman cuts the engines, and veers closer to the Island. "Nobody knows. We just knew to stay away from it. Nothing there but ruins and dead bodies now."
[19:47] <@spiritflame> Current Location is: Battleship Island, "Gunkanjima"
[19:47] <John Constantine> :d
[19:48] *** The outline of crumpled buildings with trees growing on them is visible at first, but is finally choked by fog.
[19:48] <Eilean> ...whoa
[19:48] <Crusty Old Seaman> Alright. I did my part. Get out.
[19:48] <Crusty Old Seaman> I thought you knew where you.... nevermind. Go.
[19:49] * John Constantine climbs out, inhaling the stale, dead air
[19:49] *** The launch stops near the rocks, which are topped by a seawall. There are countless seabirds there, who all silently stare at the boat.
[19:49] * Vermellia X. Rosso leaps out and lands silently upon the sand
[19:49] * Amanda Sharlan climbs out and holds her hand out for Eilean
[19:49] * ^rocks
[19:49] * Vermellia X. Rosso does the CRANE STANCE
[19:49] * Eilean takes amanda's hand and walks down onto the beach
[19:50] * Vermellia X. Rosso is mocking you, seagulls.
[19:50] *** There are several destroyed hulls of boats just barely submerged in the water.
[19:51] * Eilean watches all this in awe
[19:51] * Vermellia X. Rosso hop-hops across the rocks like a ninja, her scythe folded and tucked behind her back
[19:51] *** a low rumbling noise begins behind the seawall.
[19:52] * John Constantine strolls idly across the rocks with long strides
[19:52] <Eilean> ....
[19:53] *** The loud rumbling is heard again, the source obscured by the other side of the wall.
[19:53] * Eilean pulls her bow off her back and notches in an arrow
[19:53] * Vermellia X. Rosso snaps her gunscythe open, the blood-red metal gleaming in the moonlight
[19:54] * Approaching footfalls can suddenly be heard!
[19:54] * Vermellia X. Rosso crouches low like a feral cat
[19:54] * Amanda Sharlan has her own bow on her, ready for anything
[19:54] *** Two people rush across the top of the seawall in this direction., partially obscured by the fog.
[19:55] <Voice One> I told you I saw something. Come on and keep a sharp look out.
[19:55] *** The footfalls get closer, they will be here soon.
[19:55] * Eilean keeps her eyes out
[19:55] <Voice Two> I'm telling you there is nothing out here. We are wasting our energy, I'm hungry already!
[19:56] * Vermellia X. Rosso slips into the shadows, literally, only the tip of her Gunscythe peeping out
[19:56] <Eilean> .....
[19:57] * Eilean tenses up
[19:57] *** The footsteps are almost here
[19:58] <Voice One> You Idiot, the Boss said he does NOT want to be disturbed. Remember what he did to the last two guys? Now come on, and let's be sure.
[19:59] * Eilean slowly pulls back the arrow...
[19:59] <Voice One> /Two men wearing dirty clothes appear on top of the sea wall. They are both carrying assault rifles, easily visible in the fog.
[19:59] *** ^
[19:59] <John Constantine> Hi there!
[19:59] * John Constantine waves
[19:59] <Voice One> OH MY GOD!
[19:59] <Voice One> QUICK, I'll sound the alarm, YOU go tell them to kill all the hostages!
[20:00] <Vermellia X. Rosso> *silent facepalm*
[20:00] * Amanda Sharlan puts her hand on Eilean's shoulder, "Don't jump the gun..."
[20:00] * Vermellia X. Rosso CLEAVES at the voice one dude with her scythe
[20:00] *** A Hand Grenade lands at Constantine's feet.
[20:00] * John Constantine looks down at it
[20:00] * Eilean mutters something under ther breath...
[20:00] * Voice One ends in a gurgle.
[20:00] <Eilean> ♦ FOG!
[20:01] * John Constantine picks it up and looks at it curiously
[20:01] * Eilean tries to create a fog around the area
[20:01] <Vermellia X. Rosso> throw it away dumbass
[20:01] <John Constantine> why
[20:01] *** A loud explosion is heard which sends rock everywhere and through everybody not in cover.
[20:02] * John Constantine is SHREDDED by rocks
[20:02] * Eilean gets hit in the head by a rock >.O
[20:02] * John Constantine drops
[20:02] * Amanda Sharlan ducks
[20:02] * Footsteps Two can be heard loudly rushing away, but stumbling in the fog. Frantic cursing can be heard along with radio static.
[20:03] <Eilean> ..ow....ow ><
[20:03] * John Constantine gets back up after a while. pulling rocks out of his body
[20:03] * Footsteps Two can be heard to suddenly stop, and there is a brief shout.
[20:03] * Eilean shakes her head....trying hard to concentrate
[20:03] <Vermellia X. Rosso> What the hell is wrong with you?! go home! You'll get us all killed!
[20:04] *** The sea wall is quiet again.
[20:04] <John Constantine> But I'm curious
[20:04] <Vermellia X. Rosso> GO BE CURIOUS SOMEWHERE ELSE
[20:04] * Eilean grabs hold of amanda's shoulder for support
[20:05] * John Constantine leaps over the wall and looks for the people talking
[20:05] <Amanda Sharlan> You okay, Eilean?
[20:05] *** All of the birds haave slown away now.
[20:05] <Footsteps Two> There is camo-netting secured on the other side of the sea wall.
[20:05] *** ^
[20:05] * John Constantine climbs down the netting
[20:05] <Eilean> my head...hurts ><
[20:06] *** LOTS more footsteps can be heard approaching now.
[20:07] <Amanda Sharlan> It's ok...
[20:07] * John Constantine walks towards them
[20:07] * Eilean tries to regain her composure, pulling out two knives
[20:07] * Vermellia X. Rosso ops her head out near Elian "While he distracts them like a retsard let's go around!"
[20:08] <Voice 3> Come on you morons, I KNOW I heard something.
[20:08] *** There is a small crack in the sea wall that was illuminated by the grenade flash.
[20:08] * Eilean nods slowly
[20:09] * Eilean follows after vermellia
[20:09] * John Constantine keeps walking forward, with the grenade in his hand from before.
[20:10] *** That grenade blew up.
[20:10] *** It's in a bazillion pieces on the shore.
[20:10] <John Constantine> :<
[20:10] * John Constantine just has his cane then
[20:10] * Large group of men blindly run into John Constantine!
[20:10] <John Constantine> Hi!
[20:10] * Eilean is gripping her knives.....carefully..trying to move around this
[20:11] <Thug with an assault Rifle> OW!
[20:11] <Thug with an assault Rifle> Who the hell are you?
[20:11] * Vermellia X. Rosso leads the others around the men on the other side
[20:11] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I think we should take them out
[20:11] <Ruffians on top of the wall> Who the HELL ARE YOU?
[20:11] <John Constantine> I am called "John Constantine!"
[20:11] * Ruffians on top of the wall looks at John Constantine.
[20:11] *** John Constantine is
More information about him is Here.
His image Song is: 'Gangnam Style' by PSY.
He is Level 1.
[20:12] <John Constantine> But perhaps a new name is in order.
[20:12] <Ruffians on top of the wall> Cane looks nice. Roll it this way. You live here now, by the way.
[20:12] <John Constantine> Really?
[20:12] <John Constantine> Okay.
[20:12] *** There are the sound of several safety mechanisms switched off.
[20:12] * John Constantine throws the cane at the ruffian
[20:12] * Eilean keeps trying to sneak around
[20:13] *** The ruffian is knocked down.
[20:13] <Vermellia X. Rosso> ffff
[20:13] * Vermellia X. Rosso sets her gunscythe on silent
[20:13] *** The ruffian's buddies, however, respond by filling John Constantine with 150 rounds of AK-47 bullets.
[20:13] * John Constantine is RIDDLED with bullets and drops!
[20:14] *** Searchlights turn on inside the island. Game difficulty now set to *HARD*
[20:14] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Aww s[BLEEP]tsnacks
[20:14] <Eilean> amanda???? where are you?
[20:14] * John Constantine groans for a bit, then gets back up, shaking the bullets out
[20:14] <John Constantine> Curious...
[20:14] * Ruffians on top of the wall pick up the cane, and drag away the bleeding body. They shoot him in the head again when he moves.
[20:15] <John Constantine> Ow!
[20:15] * John Constantine punches the ruffian in the head
[20:15] <Ruffians on top of the wall> .....
[20:15] <John Constantine> That hurts ><
[20:15] * John Constantine doesn't bleed, btw
[20:15] *** The ruffians drag him away while shooting him curiously. They mention that the "Boss will want to know about this one."
[20:15] * Ruffians on top of the wall is away
[20:16] <John Constantine> Stop hitting me with those things why are you hitting me
[20:16] * John Constantine is away: T_T
[20:16] *** Okay, now for the non-crazy people...
[20:16] * Vermellia X. Rosso groans
[20:17] *** The other side of the wall is filled with broken crates. It looks like the guy from before stumbled and fell from the sea wall. His dead body is in front of you.
[20:17] <IronYumiko> well crap.
[20:17] * Vermellia X. Rosso loots corpse
[20:17] <Amanda Sharlan> Hm...
[20:17] <Eilean> ..did we really need to kill him?
[20:17] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Well DUH, if I dodn't kill him how could I loot his corpse.
[20:17] *** He broke his neck. You are good.
[20:18] <IronYumiko> I don't think we did, it looks like he fell in the fog.
[20:18] *** The body fell onto a crate... it looks like some shiny stuff has spilled out of it from the spot where the crate and his skull splintered each other.
[20:18] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Oh this isn't the guy i impaled? Shoot.
[20:18] * Vermellia X. Rosso checks the shiny!
[20:18] *** Roll 1d100
[20:19] * IronYumiko looks through the shinies as well.
[20:19] <spiritflame> Vermellia X. Rosso rolls 1d100 [ 80 ]
[20:19] * Eilean just sticks close to amanda..and keeps her eyes out
[20:19] *** Eilean sees that there is some kind of strange machine off in the distance that looks really bulky.
[20:20] *** These shinies are counterfeit pearls. Vermillia is able to find one that looks *particularly* convincing!
[20:20] *** $$$
[20:21] <Eilean> looks ike there's something over there...
[20:21] <Amanda Sharlan> >>
[20:21] *** Eilean smells diesel fuel blowing toward her in that direction.
[20:21] * Vermellia X. Rosso collects them in a bag and fills everyone in.
[20:21] * IronYumiko is uninterested in fake pearls.
[20:21] <Eilean> ...smell like some kind of fuel
[20:22] <Eilean> ..what do you think, amanda?
[20:22] *** The dead body is dressed in extremely filthy clothes. He carries no ID, only ammo clips, a hobo-tool, and several unopened ramen packets, with one open and partially eaten dry. He smells like a combination of smoke and BO.
[20:22] * Amanda Sharlan takes a sniff, "Yeah...kinda"
[20:22] *** Note that you could take his clothes as a disguise.
[20:23] * Vermellia X. Rosso wrinkles her nose, hating the fact she has a hightly enhanced sense of smell ><
[20:23] * Vermellia X. Rosso will not be taking them
[20:23] * Vermellia X. Rosso can't stand beuing near them
[20:23] * IronYumiko checks the size to see if she can wear her armor under them.
[20:24] <Ruffians on top of the wall> Eilean and Amanda see something further away in the fog. It looks like there are a lot of shrubs here.
[20:24] *** This man is, naturally, significantly bigger than Yumiko.
[20:24] <IronYumiko> I'm thankful I can turn my sense of smell off.
[20:25] <Eilean> ..amanda..let's taking a closer look
[20:25] * Amanda Sharlan nods
[20:25] * Eilean starts to sneak towards the shrubs
[20:25] * IronYumiko strips the disgusting man, and puts his clothes on over her armor, using her camo system to project a face similar to his in place of her helmet.
[20:26] * Amanda Sharlan follows Eilean, moving stealthily
[20:26] *** Discarded amidt the shrubs are various antiques and rusted machine components. The scent of diesel is stronger in this direction.
[20:26] * IronYumiko rolls up the pants and sleeves so she doesn't trip over the extra length.
[20:26] *** Eilean, roll 1d20
[20:26] <Vermellia X. Rosso> There's a lot of fuel around here...
[20:26] <Eilean> ..smell is stronger....
[20:26] <spiritflame> Eilean rolls 1D20d [ 1 ]
[20:27] *** Try again, without the "d"
[20:27] <IronYumiko> hoe does it look Vermillia?
[20:27] <Amanda Sharlan> Yeah....
[20:27] <spiritflame> Eilean rolls 1d20 [ 13 ]
[20:27] * Vermellia X. Rosso opens her eyes to their fullest, letting her felid eyeballs do their magic as she looks around
[20:28] *** Eilean is able to see the support bar in front of her before walking into the strange machine in front of her!
[20:28] * Vermellia X. Rosso looks all O_O if you were to look at her head on
[20:28] *** Vermillia notices, just now, that there is some incredibly faded writing on the sea wall near where she is.
[20:28] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Someone wrote something on this wall
[20:29] * Eilean jumps back a bit....
[20:29] * IronYumiko checks out the hobo tool.
[20:29] * Eilean tries to see what sort of machine this is...
[20:30] * DM is not a machine that Eilean has ever seen before, but it is obvious that there is a speed boat with an outboard motor sitting atop it. It's covered in netting that she can see through from underneath.
[20:30] *** There seems to be some kind of ramp nearby, too.
[20:30] <Eilean> ..what the heck
[20:30] * Vermellia X. Rosso investigates wall
[20:31] * Eilean signals for amanda to come over
[20:31] *** Vermillia can read, in incredibly faded paint, "Motorpool <=" (direction Eilean and Amanda are in) and below it, "Radio Office =>"
[20:33] *** What now?
[20:34] * Amanda Sharlan heads over to Eilean
[20:34] * Vermellia X. Rosso heads for the Radio office, flitting in through shatever shadows she can find to move at high speed
[20:34] <Eilean> ..what is this
[20:35] *** Amanda sees that this is an incredibly rusty but restored forklift, and it's designed to liff things up to the level of the wall. There is a speed boat on the end of it's prongs, it looks like this would be well-camoflauged from above.
[20:36] <Amanda Sharlan> It's a forklift holding a boat
[20:36] *** Vemellia walks past several collapsed buildings, and into what seems like a more recently used area. This looks like where sightseeing boats might normally land. It looks like the door to the radio office is left open. There is no light coming from this part of the island.
[20:36] <Eilean> ..shall we keep moving?
[20:36] *** The boat is dripping diesel fuel. A drop almost lands right on top of Eilean's head.
[20:37] <Amanda Sharlan> Here's where the smell is coming from...it's leaking fuel.
[20:38] <Eilean> ...where do we go now?
[20:38] * Vermellia X. Rosso stops moving and just listens for any signs of life around her
[20:38] <IronYumiko> Amanda, Eilean, there's a radio office over there...
[20:38] *** Vermellia, roll 1d100
[20:38] <spiritflame> Vermellia X. Rosso rolls 1d100 [ 27 ]
[20:39] * Eilean walks over to look at the radio
[20:39] *** Amanda and Eilean, there are drag marks that go inland past several large trees from where this boat is stowed
[20:39] * Eilean turns away.....and starts to follow the drag marks
[20:40] * Amanda Sharlan follows Eilean
[20:40] *** Vermellia, with the noise on the island (including a few ominous gunshots that ring out periodically in the distance) is unable to hear anything close to her. The rest of the place SURE Seems to know something is up, though.
[20:40] <IronYumiko> I'm going to join Vermellia over there.
[20:41] <IronYumiko> You two be careful.
[20:41] * Eilean is following the drag marks
[20:41] *** The tracks that Eilean follows go by several large barrels and crates They are shoved into the crotches of trees, and have a layer of dirt on top of them to make them invisible to IR or aerial recon. It looks like a couple of the lids are loose, though.
[20:42] *** Vermillia does not hear anything besides the ocean.
[20:42] * IronYumiko heads over to where Vermillia went, using the thermoptic sensors to find her in the dark, and walking along like she knows she belongs here despite her grubby exterior.
[20:42] * Eilean removes one of the lids
[20:43] * Vermellia X. Rosso makes sure her gunscythe is set to silent, and flattens herself on the wall near the door
[20:43] * Vermellia X. Rosso peers inside
[20:43] * Vermellia X. Rosso peers inside
[20:43] <Amanda Sharlan> Be careful, Eilean
[20:44] * IronYumiko is walking towards Vermellia.
[20:44] *** Vermillia sees several corpses in tattered uniforms full of bulletholes that are stained with old blood. All of them have been shot in the head. The radio equipment has been totally wrecked.
[20:44] * Eilean looks inside the barrel
[20:44] <DM> /Eilean removes a lid, and pulls out a Rhino horn. The bottom of the horn is scored with chainsaw marks and dried blood.
[20:44] * Vermellia X. Rosso frowns, showing a fnag
[20:44] <Vermellia X. Rosso> ^fang
[20:44] *** The rumbling noises from earlier start again, louder this time.
[20:45] * Vermellia X. Rosso starts, and heads for the sounds, being careful to keep within (literally) the shadows
[20:45] *** There is, however, a power line that flows to this office from a place inland, if Vermellia were inclined to follow it in.
[20:45] * Vermellia X. Rosso stops, realizing the existence of the line
[20:46] *** Amanda, roll 1d100
[20:46] * Eilean frowns and drops the horn...
[20:46] * Vermellia X. Rosso trusts the others to check out the noises, and follows the linw
[20:46] *** The horn clatters to the dust.
[20:46] <spiritflame> Amanda Sharlan rolls 1d100 [ 97 ]
[20:47] *** Amanda manges, amazingly, to notice a metallic reflection under a collapsed building of something hidden extremely well.
[20:48] <Amanda Sharlan> Hey...look at this
[20:48] *** Amanda might have to move a bit of rubble to reveal what it is.
[20:48] * Amanda Sharlan points at the reflection
[20:48] * Eilean looks up "...what is that..."
[20:48] * IronYumiko heads towards the radio office, but splits from following Vermillia as she heads towards the rumbling sounds.
[20:49] <Eilean> shall we go look?
[20:49] *** Vermellia can now begin to notice two voices in approaching volume.
[20:49] <Amanda Sharlan> Yeah
[20:49] *** Yumiko suddenly picks up an IR signal in some very thick brush about 50 inland.
[20:50] <DM> The inner area of the island glows brighter for a second, and the rumbling is heard again.
[20:50] * Eilean heads for the mettalic reflection
[20:51] * IronYumiko approaches the IR signal, nonchalantly, but paying very close attention.
[20:52] *** This reflection is being given off by shiny and brand new steel, which is somehow covered in the broken concrete of a collapsed building. The wrecked building looks to be at least 50 years old, with bent wood and flowed glass, but the steel beneath it is new. There's something in writing that's just barely obscured by dust.
[20:52] *** Yumiko hears a "Maaaaaahhh" sound from the signal.
[20:53] * Eilean tries to see what the writing is
[20:53] * Vermellia X. Rosso aims her gunscythe in the direction of the incoming voices
[20:53] * Vermellia X. Rosso doublechecks that it's on silent, and then waits for them to get in range
[20:53] *** The writing in front of Eilean says, "Danger, High Explosive."
[20:54] <DM> /Vermillia can hear voices approaching, they are speaking rather nonchalantly.
[20:54] * IronYumiko continues forward, making sure this really is a lamb.
[20:54] * Eilean walks away from the location
[20:54] *** A small goat wanders our of the brush next to Iron Yumiko! It chews some of the brush growing on the deserted island, and looks up at her, confused.
[20:55] * Vermellia X. Rosso takes aim and fires shots at their hearts the moment they are in range
[20:55] * IronYumiko opens a ramen packet and offers it to the goat.
[20:56] * DM sniffs her armored hand very curiously, but then starts slowly munching on the Ramen.
[20:56] *** lol
[20:56] *** the goat did that
[20:56] <A Voice Near Vermellia> You sure it ran this direction?
[20:56] <A Voice Near Vermellia> How should I know? It's just a stupid animal.
[20:57] <A Voice Near Vermellia> Do you really think the rumors are true, that they caught somebody trying to rescue the hostages?
[20:57] * Eilean isn't exactuly sure where she is now
[20:57] <A Voice Near Vermellia> Dunno. I do wish we weren't stuck looking to find one of the damn GOATS. Anyway, what do you think will happen if they don't pay for the hostages, or are coming to rescue them?
[20:58] * Vermellia X. Rosso appears to have missed, so takes one of them out and then grabs the other in a chokehold aimed ot prevent any screams
[20:58] *** A wire near Eilean sparks.
[20:58] *** Vermillia has one of them good, and the other voice comes through the fog.
[20:59] * Eilean gets the hell out of there
[20:59] <Another Voice Near Vermellia> Well, what do you think we'll do? The boss put the hostages all into that one crumbling building. If they don't pay the ransom... well... buildings collapse on abandoned islands all the time. Hey... you there?
[21:00] * Vermellia X. Rosso sighs, snaps the neck of the one she has and grabs the other
[21:00] <Another Voice Near Vermellia> Aaaaack!
[21:00] * Vermellia X. Rosso knocks him down. extyending her claws near his throat
[21:00] <Vermellia X. Rosso> The hostage. Where.
[21:00] *** Another goat walks out of the brush and nuzzles up to Eilean. It seems really at peace around her.
[21:01] <Vermellia X. Rosso> ^The hostages. Where.
[21:01] <Vermellia's Bitch> Can't breathe!
[21:01] * IronYumiko examines the goat closely.
[21:02] *** Both of the goats, the one near Yumiko and the one Eilean and Amanda, look very healthy and robust.
[21:02] <Vermellia X. Rosso> You breathed well enough to say that. So answer before I cut you into small meaty cubs
[21:02] <Vermellia X. Rosso> ^cubes
[21:02] * Vermellia X. Rosso displays a fang
[21:02] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Where are they~ ♫
[21:02] <Vermellia's Bitch> They're in the... abandoned apartments... vibrations... will knock it down. Yacht crews, most of them... waiting for a ransom...
[21:03] *** Rumbling sound comes from inland, much louder this time.
[21:03] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Good boy.
[21:03] * Vermellia X. Rosso rabbit-puncvh knocks him the f[BLEEP]k out
[21:03] *** Vermellia, roll 1d100
[21:03] <spiritflame> Vermellia X. Rosso rolls 1d100 [ 26 ]
[21:04] <Vermellia's Bitch> Ooop, nvm. His hand falls limp next to the grenade he was trying to sneakily pull the arming pin from, but he was knocked out in time.
[21:04] * Vermellia's Bitch ^
[21:04] * Vermellia X. Rosso looks at the grednade dimly
[21:04] *** The breeze picks up near Eilean and Amanda, and blows a really delicious-smelling aroma their way.
[21:04] * Vermellia X. Rosso opens a portal to the shadow plane and just kicks him in
[21:04] * Vermellia X. Rosso closes it
[21:04] *** Vermellia's Bitch has quit IRC
[21:05] * Vermellia X. Rosso quickly heads back through the shadows at high speed to tell the others what she learned
[21:05] <Goat near Eilean and Amanda> Maaaaah
[21:05] * Goat near Eilean and Amanda nuzzles up against Amanda and Eilean.
[21:06] * John Constantine , meanwhile, is off elsewhere, f[BLEEP]king around on the island trying to figure out what the f[BLEEP]k to do
[21:06] <Amanda Sharlan> Uh...
[21:07] * IronYumiko picks up her goat, with an idea.
[21:07] * Eilean pets the goat
[21:07] * IronYumiko heads back to where she left Eilean and Amanda.
[21:07] * Goat near Eilean and Amanda trots off, as though it expects Amanda and Eilean to follow it.
[21:07] *** Amanda and Eilean are near a third IR sig. Getting closer reveals another goat.
[21:08] <Eilean> ..what the heck is with all these goats
[21:08] <Amanda Sharlan> I don't know but I hope we figure out where Jameson is soon...
[21:08] <IronYumiko> I'm not sure, precisely.
[21:09] *** There is really good smell of food coming from a nearby building.
[21:09] * Vermellia X. Rosso breathlessly makes it back to the group and relays her info
[21:09] * IronYumiko is quietly, if smellily, holding a goat behind Eilean.
[21:09] <Eilean> (( what's the info again? ))
[21:09] <IronYumiko> They escaped, eh?
[21:10] <IronYumiko> I'm dressed as one of the guards, so why don't I "return" these?
[21:10] <Vermellia X. Rosso> The hostages are in the abandoned apartments. The sounds are vibrations designed to knock down the buidlings... the Yacht Crews are waioting for a ransom.
[21:11] *** Well, the ransom is so they don't kill the yacht crews.
[21:11] *** but yeah.
[21:11] <Eilean> which apartments
[21:11] <Vermellia X. Rosso> No clue, did you all see any?
[21:12] * Eilean looks around for any
[21:12] *** is chock full of abandoned buildings of crumbling concrete. Lots of stylish fighting and explosions might seriously collapse one. There IS still that smell of food coming from left stage, though.
[21:13] <IronYumiko> shall I escort these goats to the left?
[21:13] <Vermellia X. Rosso> one wonders if the good food would go to hostages... but definitely to hostage takers...
[21:14] <Eilean> you go for the hostage takers..I'll look for the hostages
[21:14] <IronYumiko> The hostage takers are likely near the hostages.
[21:14] * Eilean mutters..and raises her hands...
[21:14] <Vermellia X. Rosso> righty-o
[21:14] <Eilean> ♦ Fog
[21:14] * Eilean attempts to cast fog over the area
[21:14] <Vermellia X. Rosso> not if they're gonna drop beuildings on them, lady
[21:15] <IronYumiko> I said near, not necessarily the same building.
[21:15] <IronYumiko> otherwise the hostages might manage to leave the trap they were put in.
[21:16] * Voices and the sound of a loud diesel engine can be
[21:16] * Eilean carefully makes her way through the fog..trying to find where the hostages are
[21:17] *** Elean, and not the others, can hear the unmistakable sound of an electric drill.
[21:17] <Voices> It's coming from the other side of the brush covered hill directly in front of them.
[21:17] *** ^
[21:18] *** The smell is coming from that direction too.
[21:18] * Eilean slowly heads for the sound of the drill...trying to keep hidden in the thick fog
[21:18] *** Eilean, roll 1d100
[21:19] * IronYumiko will head for the smell, carrying the goats.
[21:19] <spiritflame> Eilean rolls 1d100 [ 48 ]
[21:20] *** Eilean sees the first of several piles of discarded aluminum cans that whose labels suggest they contained food. She successfully avoids them and does not make a noise.
[21:20] *** Amanda, roll 1d100
[21:21] <spiritflame> Amanda Sharlan rolls 1d100 [ 23 ]
[21:21] *** Yumiko follows the smell, and finds a goat enclosure fenced in beneath a concrete-colored camo net. There seems to be the light of a cooking fire coming from the door, but no light comes through the windows of the building. The rest of the goats are here in the pen. Another two guys walk by Yumiko, nod their congratulations that she seems to have found the goat, and walk away.
[21:22] <Voices> Amanda BARELY manages not to trip on the cans.
[21:22] * IronYumiko puts the goat back in the pen and goes in through the door.
[21:23] *** When Eilean gets to the top of the hill, she can look down and see the pirate/smuggling camp. There are several bits of machinery that are drilling holes in the walls of a building. A bunch of guys with guns are surrounding this building.
[21:23] * Eilean looks to see how stable the building is
[21:24] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Hey Eilean can you take out a bunch of these guys with your arrows?
[21:25] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I'd love to snipe all these ba[BLEEP]rds
[21:25] * Eilean bites her lips
[21:26] <Voices> Several people carry a safe into the building that is being weakened.
[21:26] * Eilean digs in her pocket and dabs some sleeping powders on the end of some arrows......
[21:26] *** Another group of people carry a locked safe into the building being weakened.
[21:26] <Voices Near Yumiko> I heard the alarm before.
[21:26] * Eilean notches an arrow......and aims at the people weakening the building...aiming for non fatal spots
[21:26] * Eilean fires
[21:27] * Vermellia X. Rosso changes out her ammo for something nonlethal and fires at the ones Eliean can't
[21:27] <Voices Near Yumiko> Me too, but it was probably another chunk of masonry falling. I tell you, this is one of the greatest ideas ever. Just take the stolen goods and hide them in the building, then collapse the building. Nobody can find it, and it's not at all suspicious. We can just get them when the heat is off. The boss REALLY knows what he's doing.
[21:27] * Voices Near Yumiko give general agreement.
[21:27] *** Eliean and Vermellia, roll 1d100
[21:28] <spiritflame> Eilean rolls 1d100 [ 1 ]
[21:28] <spiritflame> Vermellia X. Rosso rolls 1d100 [ 44 ]
[21:28] * IronYumiko replies to the voices, in a male sounding voice.
[21:28] *** Vermillia completely knocks out one of the people in the vehicles using the drill to weaken the building girders.
[21:29] * Eilean 's accuracy is terible..and she nearly collapses to her knees ><
[21:29] <IronYumiko> You ever worry the boss is going to arrange for some of us to be in the building when it goes?
[21:29] <Eilean> >.O...
[21:29] *** EILEAN's arrow, on the other hand, lands right in the middle of the campfire where everybody notices. They immediately pick up their Assault rifles and turn the safety's off.
[21:29] * Eilean 's vision is blurry
[21:29] <IronYumiko> I mean, that's fewer people to split the loot.
[21:29] <Vermellia X. Rosso> #@$@$@@
[21:30] * Vermellia X. Rosso fires agasin to try and snipe the others!
[21:30] * Eilean shakes her head, trying to refocus
[21:30] <IronYumiko> The set off an alarm in the building and we all go running in to our deaths in an "accident"
[21:30] <Voices Near Yumiko> HEY! Listen... what's going on outside?
[21:31] *** The people around the campfire (there are about 12) all face in different directions and level their weapons.
[21:31] *** Yumiko, roll 1d20
[21:31] <IronYumiko> They must have gotten the ransom.
[21:31] <spiritflame> IronYumiko rolls 1d20 [ 6 ]
[21:31] * Eilean notches another arrow..and attempts to fire again
[21:32] * Voices Near Yumiko notices that the goats are all really restless, and that if she opens the corral door, they will run toward the guys who have noticed the rest of her party.
[21:32] *** Eilean, roll 1d100
[21:32] <spiritflame> Eilean rolls 1d100 [ 2 ]
[21:32] * Eilean 's falls over ><
[21:33] * A thug walks over and presses the barrel of his gun up against Eilean's temple.
[21:33] * IronYumiko moves towards the corral
[21:33] <A thug> - Hey beautiful. -
[21:33] * IronYumiko will open the gate when she gets there.
[21:33] *** General sleazy laughter breaks out by the fire.
[21:34] * Eilean looks up...her eyestight is completely blurry...and she can barely focus on him
[21:34] * A thug keeps the barrel against Eilean's temple. "Take your shoes off sweetheart. You won't need them now."
[21:34] *** Yumiko, roll 1d100, and DO NOT BLOW IT.
[21:34] * Eilean slowly kicks off her shoes
[21:34] * Vermellia X. Rosso presses the tip of her scythe into the guy's lower back
[21:34] <spiritflame> IronYumiko rolls 1d100 [ 44 ]
[21:34] <Vermellia X. Rosso> ♡ and you won't be needing that spine, honey ♡
[21:35] * Vermellia X. Rosso is dealing with the guy near eliean
[21:36] * A guy on the rooftop sees this and points a rocket launcher at Vermellia, Eilean, and his partner, not caring who he kills.
[21:36] *** Suddenly, there is a massive amount of livestock noises, and about 40 goats run toward the fire, knocking people down, and breaking things!
[21:36] * Vermellia X. Rosso doesn't notice this obviously
[21:36] * Vermellia X. Rosso notices the goats, but doesn't break her focus
[21:37] * Vermellia X. Rosso presses the scyeht foprward, drawing blood
[21:37] *** The thug drops his gun after a goat rams him in the junk. X_X
[21:37] <Vermellia X. Rosso> put it d-- X_x
[21:37] * Eilean manages to stumble out of the way...but is fumbling a bit
[21:37] * Vermellia X. Rosso is run over by a freaking goat.
[21:37] * Vermellia X. Rosso slides down into the shadows X_x
[21:37] * Vermellia X. Rosso re-emerges a foot away <_<
[21:38] <Vermellia X. Rosso> that was embarassing.
[21:38] *** The camp erupts in pandemonium, with new arrivals not knowing what to do, chasing the goats, and making enough noise to obscure the party.
[21:38] * Eilean tries to move away..and heads for the apartment being destablized
[21:39] *** Everybody but three people, who are holding rocket launchers, has run away from the camp after the goats.
[21:39] * IronYumiko joins in "chasing" the goats, attempting to keep up the chaos with "accidents"
[21:39] *** Yumiko, roll 1d100
[21:39] <spiritflame> IronYumiko rolls 1d100 [ 100 ]
[21:39] * Vermellia X. Rosso swings her Gunscythe around, sniffing the air
[21:40] *** Eilean gets pretty close to the objective building. she can tell that the windows are covered with black trash bags to keep out light, and she can hear exited screams from inside.
[21:40] * Eilean shakes her head...and looks for an entrance
[21:41] *** Yumiko manages to "Accidentally" set the nearby truck on fire that is carrying most of the rest of the food.
[21:42] *** There are three people who are pointing guns at a crack in this building and not leaving the side of it.
[21:42] *** Eilean manages to get behind one. Roll 1d100
[21:42] <spiritflame> Eilean rolls 1d100 [ 65 ]
[21:42] *** The dude TOTALLY does not see her coming.
[21:43] * Vermellia X. Rosso fires at one from long range with her gunscythe
[21:43] <A guy on the rooftop> Amanda manages to get behind one of the other guys. Amanda, roll 1d100
[21:43] * Eilean pulls out a dagger......and slits the man's throat
[21:43] *** Vermillia, roll 1d100
[21:43] * A guy on the rooftop Eilean kills him.
[21:44] <A guy on the rooftop> /lol Nevermind the first part. Eilean gets him, he's dead.
[21:44] *** ....
[21:44] <Eilean> - I'm done f[BLEEP]king around... -
[21:44] *** He dies. Next.
[21:44] * Eilean holds the side of her head, trying to regain her legs...
[21:44] <spiritflame> Vermellia X. Rosso rolls 1d100 [ 62 ]
[21:45] *** Vermillia shoots him and he goes down.
[21:45] *** Amanda, roll 1d100
[21:47] <spiritflame> Amanda Sharlan rolls 1d100 [ 4 ]
[21:47] *** Amanda gets a rifle butt to the face.
[21:48] * Eilean throws a knife at the other man
[21:49] *** Eilean, roll 1d20
[21:49] * IronYumiko continues to keep everyone distracted on the bad-guy side.
[21:49] <spiritflame> Eilean rolls 1d20 [ 16 ]
[21:49] <Amanda Sharlan> ><
[21:49] * Vermellia X. Rosso decides to infiltate the building
[21:50] * Elite Mook dies from the knife before he can shoot Amanda.
[21:50] *** There is now nobody preventing the group from entering the building.
[21:50] * Vermellia X. Rosso ninjas in
[21:51] * Eilean makes her way into the building
[21:52] *** The building is filled with horrified people.
[21:52] * Vermellia X. Rosso looks for any other guards
[21:52] <Hostages> Have you... have you come to save us?
[21:52] * Amanda Sharlan follows, pinching her nose closed
[21:52] * Eilean nods...sweating..and looking pallid
[21:52] *** The building is full of filthy mattresses, and dust from where it has fallen from the rafters.
[21:53] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Yes. Let's get the hell out of here!
[21:53] * IronYumiko walks in, bringing up the rear.
[21:53] <Eilean> where's..jamie?
[21:53] <Hostages> There's a boat near here. We don't think they found it! It's on the east side of the island! Can you take us there?
[21:54] <Hostages> Jamie? We thought you were heroes come to save our lives?
[21:54] <Hostages> Aren't you?
[21:54] <IronYumiko> We're here for both.
[21:54] <Eilean> the others..can help you...
[21:54] * Hostages look relieved.
[21:54] <Hostages> /It's that way!
[21:54] * Eilean nearly falls over to the side of the wall ><
[21:55] <Hostages> Can you take us there?
[21:55] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Follow me!
[21:55] * Vermellia X. Rosso leads them! "Eliean, find your guy!"
[21:55] * Hostages all run behind Vermillia X. Rosso
[21:55] *** Jameson is not among the hostages.
[21:55] * Eilean tries to make her way around the room...looking
[21:56] * IronYumiko hands Vermillia a com-link before she leaves.
[21:56] *** Jameson is not there.
[21:56] * Eilean clentchs her fist...
[21:56] <IronYumiko> You alright Eilean?
[21:56] *** The hostages all escape along with Vermillia.
[21:56] * A dark presence fills the room.
[21:56] *** Young Lich [SmilingSoulFarmer@sculptedeternity.con] has joined #suburbansenshi3
[21:56] <@spiritflame> konbanwa young lich
[21:57] * Eilean looks at yumiko...but mostly sees a blur
[21:57] <Young Lich> So. You are here.
[21:57] * Young Lich looks at Eilean from the center of the room.
[21:57] * Eilean turns and looks at the lich and straightens up
[21:57] * Young Lich holds up a golden flask. "You want what's in here, don' you?"
[21:57] <Eilean> ....give him back to me...please
[21:58] * Young Lich shakes his head, pityingly.
[21:58] * Young Lich pops the top from the jar, and the smoke inside bellows out, forming the shape of Jameson Atlas.
[21:58] <Eilean> PLEASE
[21:58] <Eilean> ..jamie...
[21:58] *** Jameson Atlas [party058829_1@tylli.1184.ops.gov] has joined #suburbansenshi3
[21:58] <@spiritflame> konbanwa jameson atlas
[21:59] * Jameson Atlas blinks
[21:59] <Jameson Atlas> Eilean?
[21:59] <Young Lich> Hello Jameson. Welcome back.
[22:00] <Young Lich> I was wondering... I was wondering and wondering if your girlfriend had been going soft. I wondered if taking you would be the one thing that could make her toughen up. Your badmouthing was the last straw.
[22:00] * Eilean runs over as best she can and hugs jameson tightly
[22:00] *** Jameson is perfectly well and unhurt.
[22:00] * Jameson Atlas holds Eilean
[22:00] <IronYumiko> You took over this island just to test that?
[22:01] <Young Lich> What, did you think I TRULY expected you to come alone?
[22:01] * Eilean is sweating and pallid
[22:01] <Young Lich> I did not want to test her against me. I wanted to test her against humans.
[22:01] <Jameson Atlas> What did you do to her?
[22:01] <Young Lich> One would think that saving all those people who will revere you as heroes and shutting down this smuggling and piracy ring would be a good enough consolation prize, though.
[22:02] <IronYumiko> WIth the way you phrased your invitation, you knew she was bringing friends.
[22:02] <Young Lich> What did I do to her? To your girl? Tested her. That's the result.
[22:02] <Eilean> I feel so tired....for some reason...
[22:02] <IronYumiko> Wait, those aren't your people out there?
[22:02] <Young Lich> I was never going to hurt you, Jameson. I would not... well, I don't want to break the peace I enjoy. I'm willing to offer you a boon to make up for your inconvenience.
[22:03] * Young Lich point outside dismissively. Them?
[22:03] <Young Lich> Hell no. They are just pirates.
[22:03] <Young Lich> Why would I send people who are well capable of butching an area code full of criminals after MY GUYS?
[22:03] <Eilean> I really...feel....tired.....
[22:03] <Young Lich> No.
[22:03] <Young Lich> Yeah, and why are you tired?
[22:03] <Young Lich> Look at you... just...
[22:03] <Jameson Atlas> Eilean...what's wrong wtih you?
[22:04] <Young Lich> You...
[22:04] <Young Lich> You USED TO BE AN ADVENTURER!
[22:04] <Young Lich> You used to be fearless?
[22:04] * Eilean relaxes hard against jameson
[22:04] <Young Lich> What happened?
[22:04] * IronYumiko scans Eilean.
[22:04] * Eilean has a wound on the side of her head...which is bleeding
[22:04] * Eilean has a concussion
[22:04] * Young Lich turns away, disgusted.
[22:04] <IronYumiko> Head Wound.
[22:04] <Jameson Atlas> You hurt her....
[22:04] <Young Lich> I did nothing.
[22:05] <IronYumiko> I'm amazed you stayed concious long enough to do what you did Eilean.
[22:05] <Young Lich> I was waiting here to see what would happen.
[22:05] * Vermellia X. Rosso is back from shepeherding the others away
[22:05] <Eilean> my head....really hurts
[22:05] * Vermellia X. Rosso leans on her scythe and watches this.
[22:05] <Young Lich> If she got hurt, it's because she slipped. Physically and martially.
[22:05] *** The hostages get on the ship without incident.
[22:06] <IronYumiko> You are seeing the EMH as soon as we can get you to him.
[22:06] <Eilean> I'm tired...of being tested....
[22:06] <Young Lich> Then be strong.
[22:06] <Eilean> ..I'm tired.....of all these games....
[22:06] <Young Lich> That's all I want.
[22:07] <Eilean> I'm stronger then you....
[22:07] * Young Lich rolls his eyes.
[22:07] * Eilean slowly stands but stumbles a bit, holding her head
[22:07] <Young Lich> Said the bleeding semi-conscious, pleading girl.
[22:07] <Young Lich> Look, Eilean. Don't you get what I'm trying to say? You NEED work. Stop... stop... just...
[22:07] <Eilean> cause..I don't hide...
[22:08] <Young Lich> Behind your mother and father?
[22:08] <Young Lich> 9_9
[22:08] <Young Lich> Correct me if I am wrong here, but didnt' this used to be a breeze for you?
[22:08] * Eilean clenchs her fist....
[22:08] <Vermellia X. Rosso> "Need work?"
[22:08] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Are you trying to be her mentor or something?
[22:09] <Young Lich> No, although I took a significant risk to do this.
[22:09] <Eilean> ...because I'm me........cause I'm me....
[22:09] <Young Lich> I don't want to be her mentor, but I just... I seriously think somebody else should.
[22:09] <Young Lich> I don't buy the fact that she should try to fit in. I hate to see potential wasted.
[22:10] <Vermellia X. Rosso> What's your interest in her development?
[22:10] <Young Lich> I come from a world of adventurers. Elves, half-elves, dwarves.
[22:10] <Vermellia X. Rosso> So what's wrong with wanting a peaceful, mundane life?
[22:10] <Eilean> ....just.....
[22:10] <Young Lich> ..........You sound like my "daughter."
[22:11] <Young Lich> The problem with wanting a peaceful, mundane life, is not what I object to.
[22:11] <IronYumiko> The ability to fit in is a core skill of...
[22:11] <Vermellia X. Rosso> No because I speak age-appropriately.
[22:11] <Young Lich> I object to her selling herself short, and ever since she's gotten here, that's all that she's done.
[22:11] <Vermellia X. Rosso> 
[22:11] <Young Lich> Uh... who are you trying to insult?
[22:11] * Young Lich looks puzzled.
[22:11] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I think she knows full well what she can do.
[22:12] <IronYumiko> Eilean?
[22:12] <Eilean> ♦ SHUT UPPPPPP
[22:12] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Maybe she doesn't want to unleash that beast.
[22:12] * Outside , far in the distance...an IMMENSE piller of blue light EXPLODES upwards into the heavens
[22:13] * IronYumiko looks at Eilean...
[22:13] * Eilean collapses
[22:14] <Young Lich> GAH! Pathetic.
[22:14] <Young Lich> You know... I really hoped... I dunno.
[22:14] <Young Lich> I had this vision, that the people would be able to cheer for her and say she was a hero, and I'd say she proved me wrong.
[22:14] <Young Lich> I really hoped I would be saying she proved me wrong...
[22:15] <Vermellia X. Rosso> You were trying to make her a hero?
[22:15] * IronYumiko checks Eilean out...
[22:15] <IronYumiko> She did prove you wrong.
[22:15] * Eilean is out cold
[22:16] * IronYumiko checks the concussion with her scanner.
[22:17] * Eilean 's concussion is fairly bad
[22:17] <Young Lich> Nobody can be made a hero. I just wanted her to see that she could still BE one.
[22:17] <IronYumiko> Jamie, you want to go with her?
[22:17] <Young Lich> I have watched her crash cars and whine because of school exclusion.
[22:19] <Jameson Atlas> Just because she's trying to live a normal life doesn't make her weak
[22:19] <Young Lich> It's WHY she wants to live one.
[22:19] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Listen.
[22:19] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Just... choosing to stay alive one more day in this crazy worls of ours...
[22:19] <IronYumiko> Aes? Severe head trauma, Eilean, transport to EMH.
[22:19] <Vermellia X. Rosso> is heroism.
[22:19] * Jameson Atlas holds Eilean
[22:20] * Young Lich shakes his head.
[22:20] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Not everyone has an immortal body.
[22:20] * Eilean is held
[22:20] <Young Lich> I understand that.
[22:20] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Not everyone finds joy in their alien nature.
[22:20] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Sje
[22:20] <Young Lich> You know... I was hoping... I was hoping she would order me to return the man she "loved."
[22:20] <Vermellia X. Rosso> She's struggling to find her feet in this cray-cray world.
[22:20] <Young Lich> Not beg. Not plead. I suppose I have changed....
[22:21] <Jameson Atlas> The fact she managed to make it to you with such a severe injury shoul dhve been good enough for you
[22:21] <Young Lich> Just... disgusting.
[22:21] <Vermellia X. Rosso> ...
[22:21] <Jameson Atlas> she kept herself conscious so she could make it here
[22:21] <IronYumiko> ANd her calling is as a healer.
[22:21] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Well if you want someone to THREATEN you...
[22:21] <Young Lich> Then she should have LIED!
[22:21] <Young Lich> She should have not begged!
[22:21] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I'll find your Phylactery wherever you buried it and end you?
[22:21] <Young Lich> That's another good point, if she IS a healer, why come with the head woound?
[22:22] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Does that make you feel better?
[22:22] * Young Lich looks at Vermillia.
[22:22] <Young Lich> You a time lord?
[22:22] <Young Lich> Answer me. You a time lord?
[22:22] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I cannot believe what I'm hearing.
[22:22] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I'm part Time Lord.
[22:22] <Young Lich> Then listen up.
[22:22] <Vermellia X. Rosso> A quarter.
[22:22] <Young Lich> You know who Hazenine was?
[22:22] * Vermellia X. Rosso flicks her slightly pointed ear at him and listens
[22:22] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Ya. A grade A b[BLEEP]ch.
[22:22] <Young Lich> Remember how she tried to wreck the world and killed all of those people when end game came?
[22:22] <IronYumiko> Because she couldn't stop long enough to heal herself, because of what was threatened.
[22:23] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Yeah. Before my tiem but yeah.
[22:23] <Young Lich> I have gone to vast lengths to not die. I don't want to declare war on you. You start hunting that, and I will make you pay. I'll make everyone pay.
[22:23] <Vermellia X. Rosso> ..|..
[22:23] <Young Lich> Am I really that annoying? Do you REALLY want that?
[22:23] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Stop kidnapping our friends then.
[22:23] * Aes transmats Eilean out.
[22:23] <Young Lich> Look, I had second thoughts, alright!
[22:23] *** Eilean has left #suburbansenshi3
[22:23] <Vermellia X. Rosso> And trying to make good girls into heroines against their will.
[22:24] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Some people aren't cut out for the life.
[22:24] <Young Lich> Like I said, I was REALLY hoping to be able to say that I was wrong, here's your lover, you truly are a hero.
[22:24] <Vermellia X. Rosso> - she doesn't need to BE ONE -
[22:24] <Young Lich> Lady, if she is not cut out for the life, why did she raid tombs and ruins?
[22:24] * Vermellia X. Rosso tightens a fist, more angry at something else than simon
[22:24] * Young Lich kicks the ground.
[22:25] <Vermellia X. Rosso> For personal fun!
[22:25] <IronYumiko> Because she had to.
[22:25] <Vermellia X. Rosso> it's not the same thing!
[22:25] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Had to?
[22:25] * Vermellia X. Rosso listens to Yumiko
[22:25] * Jameson Atlas walks over to Simon
[22:25] <Jameson Atlas> Look!
[22:25] <IronYumiko> It was how she survived. NOt necessarily something she felt a calling for.
[22:25] <Young Lich> Yes?
[22:26] <Jameson Atlas> She may not be some Indiana Jones to you, but she's enough for me. If you have a problem with that, make some other clone child and turn it into the hero you want.
[22:26] <Young Lich> Eh, the chick who could do that likes to shoot me in the head.
[22:26] * Young Lich sighs, and clasps his hands. "But I suppose you had ap oint."
[22:27] <Young Lich> I really did want to give her the "or else." As in "have to do it or else."
[22:27] <IronYumiko> She ran away from home, and she had to do something to feed herself. She has the skills, but her calling is different.
[22:27] <Young Lich> But she's INCOMPETENT!
[22:27] <Young Lich> Do you remember fighting that dragon, Jameson?
[22:27] <Young Lich> I hve news for you: It was playing with you.
[22:27] <Vermellia X. Rosso> THIS ISN'T A JOB!@
[22:27] <Vermellia X. Rosso> For ME it's a goddamn job.
[22:28] <Young Lich> Hugging and crying are not viable methods of retreat when fighting a dragon.
[22:28] * Young Lich looks at Red.
[22:28] <Young Lich> I admit it. I was wrong.
[22:28] <Young Lich> Not in the way I hoped to be, but wrong nonetheless.
[22:28] * Vermellia X. Rosso narrows her eyes, which are tearing up.
[22:28] <Vermellia X. Rosso> So what now.
[22:28] <Jameson Atlas> If that was such a problem for you, then maybe you should have killed us. Eilean doesn't want to live that life anymore. Don't force her to.
[22:29] <Young Lich> I won't do that again.
[22:29] <Young Lich> Believe me. Once was disappointing enough.
[22:29] * Young Lich shakes his head, and wipes his finger through Eilean's blood.
[22:29] * Vermellia X. Rosso is getting to angry hearing him denigrating elian for not being... supergirl or something ><
[22:29] <Young Lich> Phhhb, I'm not going to kill you for no reason, Jameson.
[22:30] * Young Lich looks over at Red. "You knonw, I expected to be saying this to a Razal, but I don't understand why you are so upset. I surely harmed Jameson and Eilean more than you."
[22:30] * Young Lich sits down on one of the mattresses.
[22:30] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I was pushed into the life.
[22:31] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I had to adopt it early on.
[22:31] <Vermellia X. Rosso> It was NOT my calling.
[22:31] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I'm good at what I do, but f[BLEEP]k, I wish I weren't.
[22:31] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I'm mad at you because you're pissed off at a SWEET YOUNG GIRL for not becoming a BARBARIAN
[22:32] <Jameson Atlas> If you wanted her to become a warrior princess...then giving her something more than a tease kidnapping would have done a better job...your method was stupid, SImon.
[22:32] <Young Lich> I pissed off a CHILD because she DID NOT USED TO BE ONE!
[22:32] * Young Lich turns to Jameson. "I won't argue with that."
[22:33] <Vermellia X. Rosso> She is finally having a chance to be NORMAL
[22:33] <Young Lich> I really shouldn't have done it. I'll make it up to you though.
[22:33] <Vermellia X. Rosso> It's not retrogression!
[22:33] <Young Lich> IT IS SO!
[22:33] <Vermellia X. Rosso> NO!
[22:33] <Young Lich> She's diminishing!
[22:33] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I'm... so sorry you think that ><
[22:33] <Young Lich> She let's Elveny-McPrickwit and her mother get her out of jams!
[22:34] * Vermellia X. Rosso looks away, her bangs hiding her face
[22:34] <Jameson Atlas> If you want her to be the fighter you believe she should be, do a little better. Until then, leave her alone.
[22:34] <Young Lich> I've watched. Look, if this keeps up, she'll be in diapers!
[22:34] <Young Lich> Very well, Jameson. I will. I will leave her alone.
[22:34] * Vermellia X. Rosso STAMPS her foot hard, cracking the ground under it.
[22:34] * Vermellia X. Rosso is seriosuly biting back her rage
[22:35] <Jameson Atlas> If you'd wanted that so badly, you should have killed me.
[22:35] <Young Lich> .........
[22:35] <Young Lich> Jameson. I took you and jeapordized the peace I enjoy because I... well...
[22:36] <Young Lich> Part of it is that I don't know what came over me.
[22:36] <Young Lich> But I justu grow so weary of hearing her whining about NOT FITTING IN WITH MORTALS!
[22:36] <Young Lich> They would kill to be her, to not have to worry, to have somebody to love, and to have inexhaustible wealth.
[22:37] <Young Lich> I told her once... I told her that if she simply told me who was teasing her in school I would "make sure they never did it again."
[22:37] <Young Lich> Now of course I never expected her to take me up on this, since she's afraid I'll murder them.
[22:37] <Jameson Atlas> She never had to deal with that before. She doesn't know how to handle it.
[22:37] <Young Lich> I wanted her to know she HAD A CHOICE to not take their crap.
[22:37] <Jameson Atlas> She's been thrown into a piece of real life she never learned to face.
[22:38] <Young Lich> I swear... it's like half the time I try to force myself to care for one of you, it totally backfires.
[22:38] <Jameson Atlas> Having to socialize with her peers? Do you know how hard it is to make friends when you barely had contact with other children until you're a teenager?
[22:38] <IronYumiko> The problem is you keep misreading the situations.
[22:40] <Young Lich> No. Jameson. But I'm an expert on not having friends.
[22:40] <IronYumiko> SImon, you are a selfish ass, but Pop doesn't think you're evil.
[22:40] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Me too.
[22:40] <Young Lich> There are better reasons not to have them than she is putting forth as excuses.
[22:41] <Vermellia X. Rosso> It's hard to have friends at school when you're known as the slaugtherer of dozens. Even if it was for a "Heroic" cause.
[22:41] <Jameson Atlas> Then give your grievances to Matsumi and convince her to pull Eilean out of school.
[22:41] <Young Lich> Paledin, eh?
[22:41] <IronYumiko> THe point, Simon, is that after a bit of guidance, she has made some friends.
[22:41] <Young Lich> I'm not... I'm not going to do that.... I even... I promised Mormeril I would not interfere with his family....
[22:41] <Young Lich> Sheesh. Look, I said I was wrong.
[22:41] <Young Lich> You know... I'm not suppoed to... GAah

[22:42] <Jameson Atlas> You said you'd give me a request to make up for the inconvenience...
[22:42] <Young Lich> Jameson.... I am sorry.
[22:42] <Jameson Atlas> I have yet to make it.
[22:43] <Young Lich> Yes. I will use my powers on your behalf.
[22:43] * Jameson Atlas glances between everyone there...then back at Simon
[22:43] <Young Lich> Golem, wealth, magic, advice from an angel.
[22:43] <Young Lich> What do you wish?
[22:44] <Jameson Atlas> Do not, for any reason, interfere with me, Eilean....or ELIZA ever again.
[22:44] <Young Lich> Why Eliza?
[22:44] <Jameson Atlas> Because she deserves to live the life we helped her find.
[22:44] <Young Lich> See, I was kind of worried you would ask for something stupid and I'd have to break my promise.... so tell me. Why Eliza?
[22:44] * Vermellia X. Rosso raises an eyebrow.
[22:45] <Jameson Atlas> It's not stupid. She's my friend, and I am not going to watch you torment her until she kills herself or someone else.
[22:45] <Young Lich> .......
[22:45] <Jameson Atlas> I didn't risk my life in that hell of a world of yours so you could still destroy her.
[22:45] <Young Lich> What hell world?
[22:45] * IronYumiko nods at Jameson's wise choice and strips off the smelly disguise.
[22:45] * Young Lich looks genuinely confused.
[22:46] <IronYumiko> /inventory
[22:46] <Jameson Atlas> That is my request.
[22:46] * Young Lich frowns, the confusion turning to alarm.
[22:46] <Young Lich> WHAT HELL WORLD?
[22:46] <Young Lich> >.>
[22:46] * Vermellia X. Rosso coldly notes his change in demeanour and files that away for future exploitation if needed.
[22:48] <Young Lich> Hmph. Nevermind.
[22:48] <Jameson Atlas> You should have placed limits on my request before allowing me to make it.
[22:48] <Jameson Atlas> That is my request.
[22:48] <Young Lich> ..............................................I accept.
[22:49] <Jameson Atlas> Good.
[22:50] * IronYumiko notes Aes will have left an anonymous tip with the harbour police by now.
[22:50] <IronYumiko> I think the police should be on their way by now.
[22:50] <Young Lich> I guess you are all going to either wipe these guys out or call the fuzz on them by now.
[22:50] <Young Lich> Ah, second one.
[22:50] <Jameson Atlas> I should get to Eilean.
[22:50] <Young Lich> I suppose you should.
[22:51] <Jameson Atlas> I expect you to keep your promise, Simon. All of it.
[22:51] * Young Lich shakes his head.
[22:51] <Young Lich> Expect away, then.
[22:51] <Young Lich> I'll abide by my promise as long as you are a live.
[22:53] <Jameson Atlas> Then for as long as your promise is kept, the inconvenience of my capture will be disregarded.
[22:53] <Jameson Atlas> Good night.
[22:53] *** Jameson Atlas [party058829_1@tylli.1184.ops.gov] has left #suburbansenshi3 (*teleports to Eilean*)
[22:53] * Vermellia X. Rosso sees a heck of a catch there.
[22:53] <Vermellia X. Rosso> As long as he's alive, huh.
[22:54] <IronYumiko> That could be a while, given his friends.
[22:54] <Vermellia X. Rosso> We'll just have to make sure it is :3

[22:55] <Young Lich> I exist on scales that do not concern him now. Normal men swear oaths for a lifetime, and I have done that today.
[22:55] <Vermellia X. Rosso> For his lifetime XD
[22:56] <Young Lich> Heh, probably the one that concerns him most.
[22:56] <Young Lich> Still, I have no idea what he was talking about.
[22:56] <IronYumiko> I think Eilean's lifetime concerns him more...
[22:56] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Sorry my granddad was a lawyer. I get picky at points.
[22:56] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Anyway this has been a riot.
[22:57] <IronYumiko> It was interesting.
[22:57] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Let's not do this again. I gotta go find that idiot Constantine.
[22:57] <IronYumiko> You have a girlfriend Vermellia?
[22:57] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Sorry, I don't swing that way ^^
[22:57] <IronYumiko> no, bad Yumiko.
[22:58] * Vermellia X. Rosso doesn't swing any way actually.
[22:58] <IronYumiko> Ah well, I'm not going to cheat on Idris.
[22:58] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I guess Archie wasn't kidding when she said he was
[22:58] * Young Lich just sits on the floor where the hostages were before, thinking.
[22:58] <Vermellia X. Rosso> "dead".
[22:59] <IronYumiko> Constantine?
[22:59] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Yeah.
[22:59] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I've worked hundreds of missions with him and he's never been that retarded.
[22:59] <Vermellia X. Rosso> So that's really not him rattling around in there.
[22:59] <IronYumiko> Aes told me about that. He has copies of the security tapes if you'd like to see.
[23:00] <Vermellia X. Rosso> i'm sure I'll get the full rundown in my cell.
[23:00] <IronYumiko> Cell?
[23:00] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I'm to turn myself in for arrest on charges of dereliction of duty.
[23:00] <IronYumiko> I thought you were supposed to investigate what happened to Constantine first?
[23:01] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I'm lucky she needs me.
[23:01] <Young Lich> What?
[23:01] <Young Lich> You are getting arrested? Why/
[23:01] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Well, what happened to him? I Lost him on the freaking island.
[23:01] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Because I didn't stop him from getting "killed"
[23:01] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I'm his partner.
[23:02] <IronYumiko> He's probably still wandering around here.
[23:02] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I know.
[23:02] <Young Lich> Eh.
[23:02] * John Constantine has wandered off into the sea and is currently walking along the seafloor. Oops.
[23:02] <Young Lich> He's the one that they tried to blow away?
[23:02] <Young Lich> Eh, I figured they were torturing him or something.
[23:02] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Yeah.
[23:03] <Young Lich> Look, if what you said is true?
[23:03] <Young Lich> If you were forced into this gig? Don't let them punish you.
[23:03] <Young Lich> Come with me.
[23:03] <Vermellia X. Rosso> He's usually very careful about not revealing his "talent"
[23:03] <Young Lich> I've got a spot to hide. F[BLEEP]k them. Live your life. Enjoy it.
[23:03] <Young Lich> Don't listen to those losers. Come with me instead.
[23:03] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Hhehe thanks but... I have a disease.
[23:04] <Vermellia X. Rosso> It's called Duty.
[23:04] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I take it serious.
[23:04] <Young Lich> That's a curable disease, depending on you you caught it.
[23:04] <IronYumiko> That's a nasty disease there, Vermillia, along with Honor.
[23:04] <Young Lich> Of course, your symptoms DO seem advanced~ Tragic.
[23:05] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I caught it at 7 when The Sbhadow Architect stopped me from driving my claws into my won throat.
[23:05] <Vermellia X. Rosso> ^own
[23:05] <Young Lich> Shadow... Architect?
[23:05] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I owe her.
[23:05] <IronYumiko> 7?
[23:05] <Vermellia X. Rosso> A title, she's not Shadar-kai or anything.
[23:05] <Vermellia X. Rosso> But she is the head of the Shadow Proclamation.
[23:06] <IronYumiko> What could do that at that age?
[23:06] <Vermellia X. Rosso> The oldest law enforcement orgnaization in the universe.
[23:06] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I could have.
[23:06] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Almost did.
[23:06] <IronYumiko> If you don't wish to speak of it yet, I understand.
[23:06] * Vermellia X. Rosso shrugs from her shoulders
[23:07] <Young Lich> You now about the Shadar-Kai?
[23:07] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I was an outcast. It's that simple really.
[23:07] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Mmm. My... family has their blood.
[23:07] <Vermellia X. Rosso> It's why I can shadow-hop like I do.
[23:07] * Young Lich remembers this.
[23:07] <Young Lich> Look.
[23:08] <Young Lich> Instead of getting discarded as soon as you mess up, you could just leave.
[23:08] <Young Lich> I'm exceptionally confident I could hide you. You'd need to do one thing, though.
[23:09] * Young Lich puts one of the pillows underneath him.
[23:09] <Young Lich> What a disappointing night.
[23:09] <IronYumiko> SHe could hide, but she won't.
[23:10] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Hiding's not what I do.
[23:10] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Well except when I'm fighting.
[23:10] <IronYumiko> Umm... actually, from what I saw...
[23:10] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Then i'l camp like a b[BLEEP]ch.

[23:21] <Young Lich> Mmmm.
[23:22] <Young Lich> Why do you wear that?
[23:26] <IronYumiko> Mainly so I don't get shot. Bullets hurt.
[23:28] <Young Lich> They do somewhat.
[23:28] <Young Lich> I've been kind of trying to avoid asking this question, but Do you think your father will allow me to return?
[23:29] <IronYumiko> It may take a few days before that's something he'll consider.
[23:30] <IronYumiko> BUt if Jameson and Eilean are willing to ignore the issue, he'll probably be willing.
[23:44] <Young Lich> Mmmm, I had second thoughts.
[23:44] <Young Lich> I wish I had not done it now, certainly.
[23:46] <IronYumiko> You need to work more on your patience I think.

[19:38] <Kakanue> (( worse than normal ))
[19:38] <YangGirl> (( cat stole my bed ))

[19:39] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i also totally have Carmel apple cider i'd make for this but it's to damn hot atm. ))
[19:39] <Kakanue> (( they went on a road trip...didn't give us the opportunity to go... ))
[19:40] <Kakanue> (( they went to get away from us...beca ))
[19:40] <@RiderHeroProject> (( They really said that was the reason? ))
[19:40] <Kakanue> (( yeah ))
[19:40] <Kakanue> (( they did ))
[19:41] <Kakanue> (( my brother and i are "financial burdens" and "s[BLEEP]t on them after everything they've done for us" ))
[19:41] <@RiderHeroProject> (( I'll be honest, that is a VERY harsh thing for a set of parents to do, let alone SAY that is the reason. ))
[19:41] <Kakanue> (( we're horrible children and don't deserve to be a part of the family ))
[19:42] <Kakanue> (( they went ))
[19:42] <Kakanue> (( to house on the rock ))
[19:42] <@RiderHeroProject> (( Please forgive me when i say this, but it sounds like they are very selfish people in that aspect. ))
[19:42] <Kakanue> (( somewhere ive been wanting to go for years ))
[19:43] <Kakanue> (( that's what everyone tells me... ))
[19:43] <YangGirl> (( well f[BLEEP]k. you know my dad used to not be supportive of me, but when i was in the hospital for the first time, he finally gets my illness ))
[19:43] <Kakanue> (( >> ))
[19:43] <Kakanue> (( my medical insurance is the only thing i have that my parents actually pay for outside of food... ))
[19:43] <Kakanue> (( going to the hospital would not help the "financial burden" part ))
[19:44] <@RiderHeroProject> (( The important part KK, is that this isn't your "fault" ))
[19:44] <Kakanue> (( and ive had to beg to convince them to help me replace my brakes in my car ))
[19:44] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you have honestly done nothing to warrant these sort of statements ))
[19:44] <Kakanue> (( v_v yeah well they're very good at getting it stuck in my head how worthless i am ))
[19:45] <YangGirl> (( damn, sorry kk ))
[19:45] <@RiderHeroProject> (( that is a damn shame, because I've seen no merit to that statement ))
[19:45] <@RiderHeroProject> (( I've seen how hard you've busted your ass staffin' that con, and being a gofer recently i know how insane that can b ))
[19:45] <@RiderHeroProject> (( *be ))
[19:46] <Kakanue> (( they believe i'm content working at mcdonalds for 8 bucks an hour ))
[19:46] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i've got ALOT of respect for the people now who go through that year after year ))
[19:46] <Kakanue> (( and that i would rather be staffing at the con, which doesn't pay bills, than looking for a "real job" ))
[19:46] <@RiderHeroProject> (( I'd wager its not so much content, as it's stable steady work ))
[19:46] <@RiderHeroProject> (( which is hard to find currently imo ))
[19:47] <Kakanue> (( my mom is a firm believer that if you try hard enough, it'll happen ))
[19:47] <Kakanue> (( and whilei can agree sometimes... ))
[19:47] <@RiderHeroProject> (( the irony, your staffing work involve alot of management skills ))
[19:47] <Kakanue> (( when it ocmes to finding a job...there's only so much i can control ))
[19:47] <Kakanue> (( i can barely pay my bills ))
[19:47] <@RiderHeroProject> (( that is the sad truth ))
[19:48] <Kakanue> (( my mom even spent a night soon after i got all the money for next month's week with matt yelling at me because i'm too poor to see my own boyfriend and have to rely on others to do it for me ))
[19:48] <@RiderHeroProject> (( hell, for a few years I was like that. It wasn't until a co-worker started to help me really learn how to setup my finances and helped me fix up and refinance my house's mortage recently that I finally got ahead of my bills that i can afford things now a days ))
[19:49] <Kakanue> (( i only make 8 dollars an hour though ))
[19:49] <@RiderHeroProject> (( it's amazing i can actually find the budget to spend 40 bucks a month of a game if i wanted to now it's a giddy thrill ))
[19:49] <Kakanue> (( i work 40 hours a week ))
[19:49] <Kakanue> (( and am lucky to hit 450 dollars on a paycheck ranging over two weeks ))
[19:49] <Kakanue> (( come winter, my checks will be 200 ))
[19:50] <@RiderHeroProject> (( she also has to realise that. ))
[19:50] <Kakanue> (( taking time off is financial suicide ))
[19:50] <Kakanue> (( but i did actually decide to take the entire week off to spend with matt...no work ))
[19:50] <@RiderHeroProject> (( please don't take offense when i say this, but you're skill young. You aren't going to be making huge amounts of money yet ))
[19:50] <YangGirl> (( i can't take work because of my illness. i can't handle a real job. ))
[19:50] <@RiderHeroProject> (( she needs to see this ))
[19:51] <@RiderHeroProject> (( still, not skill ))
[19:51] <@RiderHeroProject> (( heats getting to my brain to finger functions ))
[19:51] <Kakanue> (( and back to my mom's main point ))
[19:51] <Kakanue> (( i failed out of engineering school ))
[19:51] <Kakanue> (( and am starting over ))
[19:51] <Kakanue> (( and questioning myself again ))
[19:51] <Kakanue> (( my mom...yells at me because i'm 23 and haven't gotten a degree yet ))
[19:52] <@RiderHeroProject> (( It's normal to feel that way. ))
[19:52] <Kakanue> (( that i need to make up my mind and stop d[BLEEP]king around with school ))
[19:52] <@RiderHeroProject> (( >> << ))
[19:52] <@RiderHeroProject> (( I'm 31 and only have a high school diploma ))
[19:52] <Kakanue> (( but you have a decent job... ))
[19:53] <YangGirl> (( hell, my parents and sister yelled at me because i had a failing gpa. i had to ditch my history degree due to bing too pricey ))
[19:53] <Kakanue> (( im almost 70K in student loan debt right now and no closer to being able to get a job ))
[19:53] <@RiderHeroProject> (( but I excel in computers, I know all my s[BLEEP]t, i just need to one day take those certification tests. (which my jobs kinda pushing me to do, by offering to help me pay for the tests) ))
[19:54] <@RiderHeroProject> (( not at first KK ))
[19:54] <@RiderHeroProject> (( when i started with the company, i was just a warehouse grunt ))
[19:55] <YangGirl> /occ this seemed revelent http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUAvfCU8rzA
[19:55] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i had to show them what i knew and could do, and i eventually got into merchandising, and finally into my high school chosen field when they saw i could handle it and had the opening ))
[19:55] <Kakanue> (( if i could move up at mcds it would be ok... ))
[19:55] <Kakanue> (( but i can't ))
[19:55] <@RiderHeroProject> (( whats stopping that? ))
[19:55] <Kakanue> (( it wouldn't be so bad if i'd move up... ))
[19:56] <Kakanue> (( um... ))
[19:56] <Kakanue> (( ive already been told ill never be a manager ))
[19:56] <@RiderHeroProject> (( also lol hun, i love this song ))
[19:56] <Kakanue> (( and since i don't ahve some business degree, i can't really work for corporate ))
[19:56] <YangGirl> this is revent to the converrsation
[19:56] <@RiderHeroProject> (( What was there reason why you couldn't be a manager? ))
[19:56] <Kakanue> (( *cough* ))
[19:56] <Kakanue> (( i'm a b[BLEEP]ch ))
[19:56] <YangGirl> (( damn. ))
[19:57] <@RiderHeroProject> (( sounds like it's someone who doesn't like you, trying to hold you back ))
[19:58] <@RiderHeroProject> (( cause if being a "b[BLEEP]ch" is the only reason, then i can get alot of OUR manager canned on that reason. (lol) ))
[19:58] <Kakanue> (( her wording was: i clash too much in personality with the other crew ))
[20:00] <Kakanue> (( and so: i'm suck as a crew member making 8 dollars anhour ))
[20:00] <Kakanue> (( ive already maxed out my wage. i CANT make any more ))
[20:00] <@RiderHeroProject> (( hmmmm ))
[20:01] <@RiderHeroProject> (( only thing i can say to that, is learning how to "get along" better with other crew. Show them you've learned to be more "professional" and put differences aside. ))
[20:01] <Kakanue> (( >> ))
[20:01] <@RiderHeroProject> (( believe me, there are some people i work with i'd LOVE the throat punch in a second ))
[20:02] <Kakanue> (( i work with a bunch of lazy, dumbass f[BLEEP]king high schoolers who woruld rather sit there sexting their girlfriends than work ))
[20:02] <@RiderHeroProject> (( but sometimes you gotta swallow your pride and "play the game" ))
[20:02] <Kakanue> (( ive been there 7 years...this place USED to be a good place to work for ))
[20:02] <Kakanue> (( it went to s[BLEEP]t over the last year or so ))
[20:03] <Kakanue> (( i really hate my job, even moreso since i keep getting promised things and they never come. i make very little more than the noobs ))
[20:03] <Kakanue> (( im still s[BLEEP]t on every day i go to work ))
[20:03] <Kakanue> (( and i get tired of the idiots getting away with s[BLEEP]t that would have gotten me fired 5 years ago ))
[20:03] <@RiderHeroProject> (( have you thought about asking to transfer to a different one? ))
[20:04] <Kakanue> (( i can't ))
[20:05] <Kakanue> (( with O/O stores you can't transfer but between stores with the same owner ))
[20:05] <@RiderHeroProject> (( damn ))
[20:06] <Kakanue> (( and i STARTED at the other store our owner has ))
[20:07] <Kakanue> (( it's worse than this one ))
[20:07] <@RiderHeroProject> (( was there a management change that caused thing to go downhill? ))
[20:07] <Kakanue> (( any other store i start over ))
[20:07] <Kakanue> (( i have seniority over every manager except the store manager and the breakfast manager ))
[20:08] <@RiderHeroProject> (( seniority is a good thing ))
[20:08] <Kakanue> (( not really ))
[20:08] <Kakanue> (( not in mcdonalds ))
[20:08] <Kakanue> (( i would really like to figure out what loophole in labor laws allows them to give us only 20 minutes of break for an 8 hour shift ))
[20:08] <@RiderHeroProject> (( so it means, d[BLEEP]k ))
[20:08] <@RiderHeroProject> (( o.o ))
[20:09] <Kakanue> (( i dont get 2 15s and a 30 ))
[20:09] <Kakanue> (( some days i'm lucky even to get the 20 ))
[20:10] <Kakanue> (( and working around food being hungry all damn day makes it worse ))
[20:10] <@RiderHeroProject> (( ok, thats gotta be illegal ))
[20:10] <Kakanue> (( if we get caught sneaking food to nibble on, we get written up ))
[20:10] <@RiderHeroProject> (( Ecks, you lurking about still? ))
[20:11] <@Doctor Xadium> (( sorta ))
[20:11] <@RiderHeroProject> (( the joys of food service huh. ))
[20:11] <Solarchos> (( I heard that part about how if you don't have a job that pays ALL of your bills and has benefits, you DON'T have a "real" job. ))
[20:11] <@RiderHeroProject> (( ecks, would ocea be the people who would look into abuse of time ))
[20:12] <@RiderHeroProject> (( osha, however it's spelled ))
[20:12] <Kakanue> (( im pretty sure OSHA is just workplace safety ))
[20:13] <@Doctor Xadium> (( kk is right ))
[20:13] <@Doctor Xadium> (( kk is right ))
[20:13] <Matsumi Kaze> (( OSHA is only workplace safety ))
[20:13] <Solarchos> (( Basically that means the only person that, under their Oh-So-Knowledgeable Standards, has a "real" job would be...me. And not them. ))
[20:14] <Solarchos> You're talking the Fair Labor Standards Act, I think.
[20:14] <Kakanue> (( i believe for me, labor complaints go through the iowa workforce development center ))
[20:15] <Kakanue> (( and this is all jsut ONE of the things hitting me... ))
[20:15] <Kakanue> (( of course everything ties together...but still ))
[20:16] <@RiderHeroProject> (( back, sorry tried to snipe an ebay auction ))
[20:16] <Solarchos> (( Your parents are asses. ))
[20:16] <Solarchos> (( And hypocrites. ))
[20:16] <Kakanue> (( point three: ))
[20:17] <@RiderHeroProject> (( yes, lets continue ))
[20:18] <Kakanue> (( money...i couldn't afford to buy my textbooks this term. i had to rent them and STILL they were too much....then i find out on the day classes start that either i have the wrong books or there was stuff that was supposed to come with them that i dont have and need to pass the calss ))
[20:19] <@RiderHeroProject> (( jeez ))
[20:19] <Kakanue> (( and i have the SAME A[BLEEP]LE CHEM PROF I HAD LAST TIME ))
[20:19] <@RiderHeroProject> (( did you talk to the place you rented them from about that? ))
[20:20] <Kakanue> (( can't...no contact info ))
[20:20] <Kakanue> (( you rent online and then give feedback later ))
[20:20] <Kakanue> (( but the places say that supplemental stuff is not guaranteed ))
[20:21] <Kakanue> (( the only way you know you get it is if you buy new ))
[20:21] <@RiderHeroProject> (( damn, that sounds like a scam to me tbh. How can you not get the stuff you need with them ))
[20:21] <Kakanue> (( my music appreciation class needs 9 cds with the textbook ))
[20:21] <Kakanue> (( i dont have the 9cds ))
[20:22] <@RiderHeroProject> (( wow, thats f[BLEEP]ked up ))
[20:22] <Kakanue> (( there are a s[BLEEP]t ton of songs i have to listen to for this class ))
[20:22] <Kakanue> (( and ive been having matt look them up one by one ))
[20:22] <Kakanue> (( and find them for me ))
[20:22] <Solarchos> This is why I'm GLAD I finished college long ago.
[20:22] <Kakanue> (( my prof told me to buy the cds ))
[20:22] <Kakanue> (( the new book...a brand new textbook ))
[20:22] <Kakanue> (( is 350 dollars ))
[20:22] <@RiderHeroProject> (( jeez ))
[20:22] <Kakanue> (( WITH cds ))
[20:23] <Kakanue> (( im taking 3 OTHER classes ))
[20:23] <@RiderHeroProject> (( ever thought about looking on ebay for them ))
[20:23] <@RiderHeroProject> (( or amazon ))
[20:23] <@RiderHeroProject> (( they usually have used copies these days ))
[20:23] <Kakanue> (( i dont trust ebay ))
[20:23] <Kakanue> (( my amazon account doesn't work for some reason ))
[20:23] <@RiderHeroProject> (( bad ebay experiance? ))
[20:23] <Kakanue> (( and still, supplemental stuff is never guaranteed with used stuff ))
[20:23] <Kakanue> (( ya ))
[20:23] <@RiderHeroProject> (( aah ))
[20:24] <@RiderHeroProject> (( cause i was gonna say, if they show it with it on ebay, it SHOULD come with it ))
[20:24] <Kakanue> (( the biggest upside...is that my prof will let me borrow her cds until i can get my own ))
[20:24] <Kakanue> (( AND im a week ahead in all my homework ))
[20:25] <Kakanue> (( then there's my car ))
[20:25] <Kakanue> (( ive already mentioned the brakes ))
[20:25] <Solarchos> If the supplemental stuff isn't guaranteed, then why would the bookstore accept them during buyback?
[20:25] <Kakanue> (( i have 1/16 of an inch of boot left on my pads and my rotors are shot ))
[20:25] <Kakanue> (( i didnt buy from the bookstore ))
[20:25] <Kakanue> (( that's why it's called USED sean ))
[20:26] <@RiderHeroProject> (( ouch ))
[20:26] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i just had car s[BLEEP]t myself ))
[20:26] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i know what your going through ))
[20:26] <Kakanue> (( i just replaced my tie rods because they were on the verge of failure ))
[20:26] <@RiderHeroProject> (( had to plop down 670 bucks to fix my front wheel bearing, rotor, and back shocks ))
[20:27] <Kakanue> (( if i had gotten it all done at once ))
[20:27] <Kakanue> (( it would have cost me almost a grand ))
[20:27] <Kakanue> (( i tried to be a responsible adult and NOT get credit cards ))
[20:27] <Kakanue> (( but now that i think about it having one would be useful ))
[20:28] <@RiderHeroProject> (( yeah, they're good but a major temptation ))
[20:28] <Kakanue> (( yeah...it's why i dont have one ))
[20:28] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i know this hardcore, its partially how i get in over my head ))
[20:29] <Kakanue> (( then there's the matter of other things i'd WANT to spend money on but can't because i have too much other s[BLEEP]t to pay for ))
[20:29] <@RiderHeroProject> (( like i said, took a co-worker to help me learn how to properly budget and help my refinance my mortage to finally get above water and have a tiny bit of disposable income per month. ))
[20:29] <Kakanue> (( case in point: i only live 5 hours away from matt but after this year we will only see each other once a year because i don't make enough to afford to 1)take time off and 2) drive up there to see him ))
[20:29] <Kakanue> (( i have a budget ))
[20:30] <Kakanue> (( i dont buy anything outside bills, gas, and what little food i eat to survive ))
[20:30] <Kakanue> (( i dont go shopping, i dont go anywhere besides work and the occasional errands so gas is minimal, but still expensive ))
[20:30] <Kakanue> (( i dont pay rent ))
[20:30] <Kakanue> (( if i did i'd have nothing ))
[20:31] <@RiderHeroProject> (( *nod* it's a sound plan. ))
[20:31] <@RiderHeroProject> (( after bills, food, gas, i probally have about 100-140 dollars a month to play with right now, even less when winter comes and i start using heat ))
[20:31] <@RiderHeroProject> (( so i know how tight things can be. ))
[20:33] <Kakanue> (( i get down to about 25 ))
[20:34] <@RiderHeroProject> (( winter months...i'd have about 60 bucks free a month, if i don't cut down on food. with my new diet i went from about 75 a week on groceries to about 40-50 ))
[20:34] <@RiderHeroProject> (( so my budget still has weekly food at 75 right now in my figures ))
[20:34] <Kakanue> (( in the winter... ))
[20:35] <Kakanue> (( i will have to stop eating all together outside of what my parents have in the house ))
[20:35] <Kakanue> (( which is never much ))
[20:35] <@RiderHeroProject> (( cause of school replacing work? ))
[20:35] <Kakanue> (( and i wont make enough to put gas in my car more than once every two weeks ))
[20:35] <Kakanue> (( no, we slow down too much for them to work us too much ))
[20:35] <@RiderHeroProject> (( aah ))
[20:36] <Kakanue> (( O/O stores don't have corporate funding. that "multi-million dollar" corporation that is mcdonalds doesn't cater to independent stores ))
[20:37] <Kakanue> (( thats why we have to charge for nugget sauces and stupid little nuances ))
[20:37] <Kakanue> (( corporate doesn't pay us...we pay them to be a store ))
[20:37] <@RiderHeroProject> (( aaaaaaah ))
[20:37] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i know one like that around here. with their sign on how many sauces you get free with what order ))
[20:38] <Kakanue> (( yeah...that's why we do it ))
[20:38] <Kakanue> (( we also charge for: mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, grilled onions, and tartar sauce ))
[20:39] <@RiderHeroProject> (( wow thats a new one even for me ))
[20:39] <Kakanue> (( and i get a LOT of hell from people for it ))
[20:39] <Kakanue> (( that little video x posted in the sidebar for me yesterday ))
[20:39] <Kakanue> (( happens to me daily wheni charge people for stuff ))
[20:39] <@RiderHeroProject> (( if you're not expecting it, it can be jarring ))
[20:40] <Kakanue> (( i have to wash my uniform every day because people throw food at me ))
[20:40] <Kakanue> (( and you all know how i'm such a good multitasker? ))
[20:41] <Kakanue> (( at work im one of the worst multitaskers there ))
[20:41] <@RiderHeroProject> (( but its not reason to do that to you ))
[20:41] <@RiderHeroProject> (( what kind of multitasking do they want? ))
[20:41] <Kakanue> (( i step away for a moment to get another block of cheese and the manager is taking away the line from me to make the food because i can't get the cheese and make the sandwich at the same time ))
[20:41] <Kakanue> (( when the cooler is 15 feet away ))
[20:43] <Kakanue> (( if i can't make more than one order at once, im getting yelled at because there are people who can...when im just extremely exhausted from working 8 days in a row, 8 hours a day, with no AC, little food, and only getting water when i stop moving long enough to breathe and go up front to get some ))
[20:43] <@RiderHeroProject> (( man, yeah, you aren't stretch armstrong there ))
[20:44] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i'll be honest ))
[20:44] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i've never seen anyone at any mcdonalds i've been to doing multiple orders at once ))
[20:45] <Kakanue> (( if they're similar orders, i can do 3 at once when im not half dead ))
[20:45] <@RiderHeroProject> (( understandable ))
[20:46] <@RiderHeroProject> (( they expect you to do the work of two people without pay not credit of two ))
[20:47] <Kakanue> (( ive been moody at work the last few days becasue i havent been sleeping ))
[20:47] <Kakanue> (( and working at 4am wears me down ))
[20:47] <Kakanue> (( especially when we've been losing a lot of people ))
[20:47] <Kakanue> (( when we get short staffed...it's stressful ))
[20:48] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i bet. ))
[20:48] <Kakanue> (( all these...between paretns, work, and money...i feel really s[BLEEP]tty ))
[20:48] <Kakanue> (( all the time ))
[20:49] <Kakanue> (( so then ive started something new... ))
[20:49] <Kakanue> (( and this is what has had me upset today ))
[20:49] <Kakanue> (( everyone here knows what kind of person i am...and i am very different from everyone else in subsen ))
[20:50] <Kakanue> (( it's something ive been trying multiple ways of changing... ))
[20:50] <Kakanue> (( and so far, everything ive done has failed ))
[20:50] <@RiderHeroProject> (( please, explain a bit more. I've been gone ))
[20:50] <@RiderHeroProject> (( for a week or so ))
[20:50] <Kakanue> (( it's gotten to the point where the ideas im trying now...im so afraid of failing...that i tremble and quake and sit near tears in fear ))
[20:50] <Kakanue> (( oh um... ))
[20:51] <Kakanue> (( it's kinda hard to explain i guess... ))
[20:51] <Kakanue> (( i um...i'm not a very nice person ))
[20:52] <@RiderHeroProject> (( yeah, work and s[BLEEP]t. I've barely been on a computer when i'm home to past week ))
[20:52] <@RiderHeroProject> (( really? ))
[20:52] <Kakanue> (( well um... ))
[20:52] <Kakanue> (( maybe it would be easier if someone else explained it... ))
[20:54] <Kakanue> (( im trembling even thinking about all of it ))
[20:54] <Kakanue> (( essentially...um....i guess since i dont see anyone present in ehre who would know what im talking about to help me explain...um... ))
[20:54] <Kakanue> (( i am bipolar...and i have severe abandonment issues ))
[20:55] <Kakanue> (( and it makes me a very um...resentful person sometimes ))
[20:55] <Kakanue> (( um...>> ))
[20:56] <Kakanue> (( and ive been trying to find ways...on my own with very little help...of changing that... ))
[20:56] <@RiderHeroProject> (( aaah, i see ))
[20:56] <Kakanue> (( i um... ))
[20:57] <Kakanue> (( it's really hard to say when the people who know what im talking about aren't here... ))
[20:57] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i can wager. ))
[20:58] <@RiderHeroProject> (( are they lurking still? ))
[20:58] <Kakanue> (( but it...it's the most stressful thing in my life right now...trying to figure out how to change this... ))
[20:58] <Kakanue> (( i tremble and cry...i get so scared im going to fail and that the fights will start again ))
[20:58] <Kakanue> (( that ocmbined with everything else...it's tearing me apart ))
[20:58] <Kakanue> (( and the thing that sucks is that i can't get away from ANY of it ))
[20:59] <Kakanue> (( lurking...i dunno...sean might be...matt might be... ))
[20:59] <Kakanue> (( im just....a very unpleasant person to be around ))
[20:59] <Kakanue> (( and after knowing that something ive done causes my own family to hate me, i ))
[21:00] <Kakanue> (( i started thinking about what my friends must think of me ))
[21:00] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you have to remember , we're your friends, because we like you for who you are ))
[21:00] <@RiderHeroProject> (( "worts" and all ))
[21:01] <Kakanue> (( you haven't really gotten to know what im like... ))
[21:01] <@RiderHeroProject> (( oh ))
[21:01] <@RiderHeroProject> (( ? ))
[21:02] <Kakanue> (( i um... ))
[21:02] <Kakanue> (( im really not a pleasant person to spend so much time with... ))
[21:03] <@RiderHeroProject> (( Matt doesn't think that ))
[21:03] <Kakanue> (( matt's my boyfriend ))
[21:04] <Kakanue> (( i dont really...treat him the same way i gues... ))
[21:04] <@RiderHeroProject> (( it proves you have SOMETHING good about you, amirite? that someone loves you ))
[21:05] <Kakanue> (( there are days when i question it... ))
[21:05] <Kakanue> (( like the night matt was supposed to come down for AI... ))
[21:06] <@RiderHeroProject> (( that wasn't his fault ))
[21:06] <Kakanue> (( and i spent the rest of my night being yelled at for it... ))
[21:07] <Kakanue> (( like is said.... ))
[21:07] <Kakanue> (( im a very unpleaseant person to be around ))
[21:07] <Kakanue> (( it's a recurring pattern...i make friends...i destroy them...and then im alone again ))
[21:08] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you've got kaky, you've got matt, you've got sean ))
[21:09] <Kakanue> (( and some days...they're the ones im destroying... ))
[21:09] <Kakanue> (( try asking them... ))
[21:09] <Kakanue> (( im sure they can tell you... ))
[21:09] <Kakanue> (( there are plenty of people here who know... ))
[21:10] <@RiderHeroProject> (( is it gotten that bad? ))
[21:10] <Kakanue> (( sometimes... ))
[21:11] <@RiderHeroProject> (( have they made comment/ ))
[21:11] <@RiderHeroProject> (( ? ))
[21:11] <Kakanue> (( if you'd seen some of the fights we have... ))
[21:12] <@RiderHeroProject> (( friends fight, but they're st5ill friend aftter though ))
[21:12] <Kakanue> (( some of the fights we have result in actions which make the abandonment issues worse... ))
[21:14] <Kakanue> (( i um...i really cant figure out how to explain much more without one of them here to contribute... ))
[21:15] <Kakanue> (( i just... ))
[21:15] <Kakanue> (( im not that great a person and my parents have finally beaten it into me ))
[21:15] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you can't let them get into your head like that though, it isn't good ))
[21:16] <Kakanue> (( they've been there long enough now.... ))
[21:16] <Kakanue> (( and the thing is...i get a lot of it from my dad... ))
[21:16] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you need to see, you are a good person ))
[21:16] <Kakanue> (( he um...he's schizo...and severely depressed...he spent a while in the hospital for it... ))
[21:16] <Kakanue> (( it...it's not that easy mike ))
[21:17] <Kakanue> (( ive had a lot to think about over the last month or so ))
[21:17] <Kakanue> (( just since animeiowa... ))
[21:17] <Kakanue> (( even during it... ))
[21:17] <Kakanue> (( there were a lot of things wrong... ))

[21:18] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you have some good ones ))
[21:18] <@RiderHeroProject> (( don't think they wont be there for you ))
[21:18] <Kakanue> (( v_v i wish i could be a good one back... ))
[21:18] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you'll live and you'll learn to be one. :) ))

[21:21] <Kakanue> (( if i keep breaking them eventually the won't be there to trust...v_v ))
[21:21] <@RiderHeroProject> (( dont think like that, they've been there this long ))
[21:23] <Kakanue> (( i haven't known any of them that long... ))
[21:23] <@RiderHeroProject> (( define, that length ))
[21:23] <Kakanue> (( im not one of those 10 year subsen regulars like so many people here...i just... ))
[21:23] <Kakanue> (( ive only been in subsen a year...known matt, sean, and jen for 2 ))
[21:24] <@RiderHeroProject> (( 2 years is still a long time tbh ))
[21:25] <Kakanue> (( not as long as some of you guys have all known each other... ))
[21:26] <@RiderHeroProject> (( bah we're just old and insane at this point. you'll get there too ))
[21:27] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you got the chops to get to that point too ))
[21:27] <Kakanue> (( im the youngest player here...and i just...some days i feel like there's so much i have to figure out to really belong ))
[21:28] <Kakanue> (( im the newest, the youngest..and i guess..the most inexperienced ))
[21:29] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you'll gain that experience ))
[21:29] <Solarchos> We're all new people at some point.
[21:30] <Solarchos> You don't get experience here unless you keep coming back and establishing yourself.
[21:31] <Kakanue> (( w-well the only reason...i think i managed to stay...was because i didn't just find subsen... ))
[21:31] <Kakanue> (( i um... ))
[21:31] <@RiderHeroProject> (( he speaks the truth ))
[21:31] <Kakanue> (( i was taught... ))
[21:32] <Kakanue> (( i um... ))
[21:32] <Kakanue> (( was in DC... ))
[21:35] <@RiderHeroProject> (( hmm? ))
[21:35] <Kakanue> (( w-well um.... ))
[21:35] <Kakanue> (( i took spring break to visit jen and sean in DC... ))
[21:36] <Kakanue> (( they showed me.... ))
[21:36] <Kakanue> (( that's when i started playing here... ))
[21:36] <Solarchos> Which we were glad to introduce you to everyone.
[21:36] <@RiderHeroProject> (( see, they WANTED you here. :) ))
[21:37] <Solarchos> As for your parents, I've said this before to you in Chatango, but I'll also say it here.
[21:38] <Solarchos> I have no respect for them. They're cowards and bullies and deluded.
[21:39] <Solarchos> I find it shameful that they coddle that idiot brother of yours who's cost your whole family a LOT of money, yet treat you like dirt for stupid reasons.
[21:40] <Kakanue> (( i just... ))
[21:40] <Solarchos> Your dad's an a[BLEEP]le. And a coward. And a failure as a man for allowing your mom to browbeat you like that.
[21:40] <Kakanue> (( i dont know how to get away from anything going wrong in my life... ))
[21:42] <Kakanue> (( i just...all im good at...is upsetting people... ))
[21:42] <@RiderHeroProject> (( do they seem upset, your friends ))
[21:42] <@RiderHeroProject> (( *points to solar* ))
[21:43] <Solarchos> I'm upset at the ones causing this, not with Alyssa.
[21:43] <Solarchos> Alyssa shouldn't be getting abused the way she does.
[21:45] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i think we can all agree on that ))
[21:45] <Solarchos> If I seem upset, it's because I learned long ago to hate people like that and to put a stop to them. Hence my career.
[21:46] <Kakanue> (( i have no way of escaping it... ))
[21:46] <Kakanue> (( im stuck here ))
[21:47] <Solarchos> Honestly, I'd love to see the expressions on their faces if I ever met them. Like I said earlier, technically they BOTH don't meet their own prerequisites for having "real jobs".
[21:47] <Kakanue> (( ive only been home since december... ))
[21:47] <Kakanue> (( and this...this is what's happened to me... ))
[21:48] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you can be strong and survive it ))
[21:48] <Solarchos> For now, at least. But like I've told you before, learn to hate them. Then take that hate and channel it into determination and a promise NEVER to become like them.
[21:48] <Solarchos> Most of the people here know about my own parents.
[21:49] <Kakanue> (( i...i just... ))
[21:49] <Kakanue> (( it's made me a bitter...unpleasant person... ))
[21:49] <@RiderHeroProject> (( you just have to rise above it ))
[21:50] <Kakanue> (( it's so hard... ))
[21:50] <Solarchos> Then make the decision to NOT become bitter and unpleasant. Look at how your mother's become.
[21:50] <@RiderHeroProject> (( i know it's hard, but you CAN do it ))
[21:52] <Kakanue> (( why do you think ive been sitting here trembling and crying instead of prodding and poking at jen, sean? ))
[21:52] <Kakanue> (( because...because im trying so hard...to figure things out... ))
[21:52] <Kakanue> (( to not be the b[BLEEP]ch she's always fighting with... ))
[21:52] <Kakanue> (( the b[BLEEP]ch my mom tells me i am ))
[21:52] <Kakanue> (( the b[BLEEP]ch that can't ever be promoted at work... ))
[21:53] <Kakanue> (( because im trying to figure it out... ))
[21:53] <Solarchos> Your mom's telling you all of these things because SHE'S already all of them.
[21:54] <Solarchos> That's because she's projecting her own failures onto you.
[21:54] <@RiderHeroProject> (( what he said ))
[21:54] <Solarchos> It's a twisted, s[BLEEP]tty coping mechanism that so many abusive parents use.
[21:55] <Kakanue> (( my mom's a very successful person... ))
[21:55] <Solarchos> So?
[21:55] <Kakanue> (( she really hasn't failed at anything... ))
[21:55] <Kakanue> (( she just... ))
[21:55] <Kakanue> (( she thinks i should be like her... ))
[21:55] <Solarchos> Except as a parent and a human being.
[21:56] <Solarchos> If she wants you to be like her, then she wouldn't be acting so childish.
[21:56] <Solarchos> She wouldn't be constantly telling you how horrible you are or rubbing these trips in your face.
[21:56] <Kakanue> (( she went to college, got a double bachelor's degree witha full time job and two very small chidren ))
[21:56] <@RiderHeroProject> (( solar, you think you can take over. I need to crash for work. ))
[21:56] <Kakanue> (( oh um... ))
[21:56] <Kakanue> (( sean''s leaving too.... ))
[21:56] <Solarchos> I need to be leaving soon myself, unfortunately.
[21:57] <Kakanue> (( i um... ))
[21:57] <@RiderHeroProject> (( darn ))
[21:57] <Kakanue> (( ill stop talking now... ))
[21:57] <Kakanue> (( you guys...um...you guys go... ))
[21:57] <Solarchos> All right. We'll talk more next time, Alyssa. Good night.
[21:57] <@RiderHeroProject> (( KK, just remember, alot of us are more then just screen names ))
[21:57] <@RiderHeroProject> (( if you need to get something off your chest, we will listen and try to help ))
[21:57] <@RiderHeroProject> (( it's what we do ))
[21:58] <Solarchos> After all, we've done it before with other people prior.
[21:58] <Kakanue> (( v_v ))
[21:59] <Solarchos> I'll see you online tomorrow.

[11:54] * Amanda Sharlan doesn't even notice Matsumi, but straps on her arm guard and settles her quiver onto her back. She breathes deeply for a moment, then starts the simulation.
[11:55] * Matsumi Kaze quietly watches..not trying to attact attention
[11:57] * Amanda Sharlan swiftly and gracefully draws and fires her arrows at the targets
[11:58] *** with each target Amanda succeeds in hitting, the movement of the target grows more erratic, testing her coordination and adjustment skills. After she passes this level, the scene becomes a battlefield. Simulated people run through the scene, her enemies with targets on them and her allies unmarked.

[12:06] <Matsumi Kaze> impressive!
[12:07] <Amanda Sharlan> It was terrible
[12:07] <Amanda Sharlan> I'm getting slow
[12:12] <Matsumi Kaze> slow???
[12:14] <Matsumi Kaze> you call that slow?
[12:15] <Amanda Sharlan> I used to be able to complete that simulation in half the time.
[12:16] <Matsumi Kaze> ........you're serious?
[12:16] <Amanda Sharlan> Very
[12:19] <Matsumi Kaze> ....that's amazing
[12:21] <Matsumi Kaze> ..where did you learn that?

[12:27] <Matsumi Kaze> ..that bad?
[12:28] <Amanda Sharlan> I've obviously let myself go over the last year or so
[12:28] <Amanda Sharlan> Being dead for 2 months didn't help that either.
[12:29] <Matsumi Kaze> I could never do what you do
[12:36] <Amanda Sharlan> Ah well I could never do what you do either.
[12:36] <Amanda Sharlan> At least you have abilities...i'm just a weak human who can only hope.
[12:36] <Matsumi Kaze> I only have abilities when I transform
[12:36] <Matsumi Kaze> for the most part
[12:37] <Matsumi Kaze> hey if you can shoot like that...you're awesome
[12:39] <Amanda Sharlan> Heh...well it takes a lot of practice.
[12:41] <Matsumi Kaze> I've heard somewhere arrows can hit harder then bullets
[12:41] * Amanda Sharlan sets her arrows back into the quiver
[12:42] <Amanda Sharlan> it's possible
[12:42] <Amanda Sharlan> harder to get out too
[12:42] <Matsumi Kaze> you at least also have some range with yours...mine doesn't

[13:40] *** both girls keep pulling..but their attention is interrupted by the sound of someone crying out and crashing to the ground
[13:44] *** not far from them, a younger girl has fallen over..her tray's contents spilled all over the floor
[13:44] <Camilla > ohohoho....well now..I'm sorry..I didn't see you there.....but then..people like you SHOULD look where you're going...
[13:45] <Katie Roselaine> grr...Camilla...
[13:45] <Nydia de Martin> man....she's always picking on someone
[13:45] * Katie Roselaine gets up and heads for the girl
[13:46] <Nydia de Martin> hey katie! wait! you're going to get in trouble again!
[13:47] *** the girl frowns..tightening her hands..then looks up.. as she sees Katie offering her own hand
[13:47] <Katie Roselaine> hey there...need some help? ^^
[13:48] *** the girl pauses...then takes Katie's hand..standing
[13:49] <Camilla> well well if it isn't the dog in human form....you always do feel sorry for weaklings like yourself don't you
[13:50] * Katie Roselaine frowns, glaring at the girl and clenching her fist starts to make a beeline for her
[13:50] * Camilla takes a few steps back..stunned by this "n..now now....y..you know what will happen...y..you can't do this!"
[13:51] * Katie Roselaine gets ready to punch camilla...
[13:51] *** the bell rings...signaling the end of lunch period
[13:51] <Camilla> ohohohoho! looks like class is starting...shame...now run along like your new friend!
[13:52] * Katie Roselaine blinks, glancing behind her..the girl is gone
[13:53] * Camilla walks away laughing
[13:53] *** Camilla has left #suburbansenshi3
[13:55] <Katie Roselaine> one of these days.....
[13:55] <Nydia de Martin> ..forget it..let's just get back to class....
[13:55] * Nydia de Martin walks out of the cafeteria
[13:55] * Katie Roselaine glances at the spilled tray..then follows Nydia
[14:03] *** back in the classroom, everyone is chatting..while Katie is glancing out the window, lost in thought
[14:03] <Nydia de Martin> ..katie...
[14:04] <Teacher> students..we have a new member joining our class today....please introduce yourself
[14:07] * Katie Roselaine glances over and blinks
[14:08] *** the girl from before walks in front of the class..she seems rather shy and unsure
[14:09] <Ren Hanataki> I..I am Ren Hanataki...it is nice to meet you all
[14:11] *** everyone gives her a somewhat lackluster greeting
[14:12] <Teacher> alright...take the desk behind Katie..and we'll get back to our lesson
[14:12] * Ren Hanataki nods and walks to the desk sitting down
[14:13] <Katie Roselaine> hey..are you ok...I know camilla's a jerk..but don't worry..she's just a coward
[14:13] * Ren Hanataki doesn't say anything...just pays attention to the teacher
[14:15] * Katie Roselaine blinks, then looks at Nydia..who just shrugs
[14:15] * Katie Roselaine sighs and watches the lesson, half payng attention
[14:15] *** Katie Roselaine has left #suburbansenshi3
[14:16] *** Nydia de Martin has left #suburbansenshi3

[23:18] <@spiritflame> Current Location is: Paris, France
[23:18] *** it's a quiet night in the city of lights
[23:21] *** the calmness is shattered as an explosion rings out....eminating from a local bank
[23:25] *** a group of robbers scramble out, carrying bags of money out towards a van...one of them seems to lag a bit from the others
[23:25] <Leader> come on, nippo! Get a move on!
[23:28] <robber 2> get a move on before the second bomb goes!
[23:28] * robber 1 nods and loads the money on the van..then spots a child running after a kitten..her mother running after her...
[23:32] * robber 1 runs over and pushes the child out of the way..just as the second bomb goes out....smashing a wall out..which would have fallen onto the child
[23:33] * robber 1 ushers the child towards the mother..who runs off
[23:34] <Leader> come on! get going, nippo!
[23:37] *** the sound of sirens fills the air
[23:38] <Robber 2> crap! the gendarmerie!
[23:39] * Robber 2 jumps into the van, the leader getting behind the wheel
[23:40] * Robber 1 quickly gets into the van
[23:44] *** the van drives off..narrowly avoiding the police cars
[23:44] *** not far off...on a rooftop..a figure watches all this
[23:45] * Lobelia Carlini frowns, clenching her fists
[23:45] <Lobelia Carlini> ...dammit......goddammit....
[00:06] *** in a darkened area under Paris
[00:06] *** the leader of the robbers drops off the bags of money in front of a shadow figure who is leaning on a cane
[00:09] <???> Excellent.......you are all doing quite well
[00:09] <Leader> ..yeah well...I don't know......
[00:10] <Leader> ....if that one person does exist....don't this mean we're going to be in real trouble?
[00:11] <???> it is nothing to worry about...the matter is not your concern....
[00:16] * Leader nods slowly...
[00:21] <???> I sense some amount of trepidation in you...
[00:23] <Leader> ..one of the guys on the job..the asian........he nearly blew it to save some kid
[00:30] <???> ..did he now....
[00:31] <Leader> you want me to deal with him?
[00:31] <???> no....but keep an eye on him....he may need to be taught...his place in all this...
[00:32] *** in another room, the japanese man from before sits on a dirty mattress...he digs into his pocket and pulls out a small photo....it shows him with a woman..and a smiling little girl...
[04:13] <Lia> Shall we officially convene, friends?
[04:13] <Nenkadu> We are hardly friends.
[04:14] <Lia> We could be if you would open yourself to me just a little bit. :
[04:14] <Nenkadu> We will never be friends.
[04:15] <Lia> What would you prefer I call us, then? We aren't family. We aren't rivals. We aren't comrades.
[04:16] <Theshkalai> ♦ Let us use the old forms, and acknowledge our shared origin in doing so.
[04:16] <Lia> >:
[04:16] <Nenkadu> Nor that.
[04:16] <Nenkadu> Call us kin. Let it be done. And let us get this over with.
[04:17] <Lia> My kin, then.
[04:18] <Lia> There is something I would ask of you both, in consultation.
[04:18] <Lia> Do you feel the stirrings tied to Earth?
[04:18] <Theshkalai> ♦ I feel all of the stirrings of Earth. You will have to be more specific. :D
[04:19] <Lia> You know of which I speak.
[04:19] <Nenkadu> The one that would end it.
[04:19] <Nenkadu> Presently.
[04:20] <Lia> Bills.
[04:21] <Theshkalai> ♦ And what of him? He casts his eyes outwards for his entertainment in the only fashion a god of destruction would do it.
[04:21] <Lia> He wants his fight. He's going to destroy Earth.
[04:21] <Nenkadu> Surely you don't intend to stand in his way?
[04:22] <Lia> ...I've given the matter some thought, but no. I'm not going to.
[04:22] <Lia> My heart doesn't call to it, which is kind of surprising, honestly, but...
[04:23] <Nenkadu> Keh. If you aren't here to call us to fight a battle for you, why did you call us?
[04:24] <Lia> Because the Widening Gyre's eyes are on two souls of this planet and have interest for none other.
[04:25] <Theshkalai> ♦ And it is for them that you worry.
[04:26] <Lia> For them, for sure, but they're both mortal creatures. I don't love them as he does.
[04:27] <Theshkalai> ♦ Nor should you! It would be beneath you, sister.
[04:27] <Theshkalai> ♦ It is beneath us all, including the Gyre itself.
[04:28] <Nenkadu> ...
[04:28] <Lia> It's not your part to make that call. :|
[04:29] <Theshkalai> ♦ You know your own nature, sister; do not presume to dictate mine to me. It is beneath us to consort in such fashions, as it is beneath him, and I will not allow us to forget that.
[04:30] <Nenkadu> This is utterly tangential to the point.
[04:30] <Nenkadu> What do you want, Lia.
[04:32] <Lia> ...I have the sense that I should be letting Yaijinden know what may transpire soon. He may wish to fight to protect them. But on the other hand...
[04:32] <Theshkalai> ♦ You think the Gyre does not already know?
[04:33] <Lia> The Gyre knows. Yaijinden doesn't know. In that body, his will is only what he incarnates, and that power is wrapped up so tightly in that skin he wouldn't know unless his body was broken.
[04:35] <Lia> Which, if Bills doesn't get what he wants, is a likely outcome of, you know, the planet being destroyed. :|
[04:36] <Theshkalai> ♦ I will have nothing to do with this. Better the Earth be swept away if it would rouse him from this play-acting.
[04:37] <Theshkalai> ♦ Let it be dust and rock and ash! Let us be freed from this silliness and return to laughing, and shouting, and killing with joy in the manner which pleases us.
[04:37] <Nenkadu> I will watch them.
[04:38] <Nenkadu> Should it come to that, they will be safe.
[04:38] <Theshkalai> ♦ --What?
[04:38] <Lia> Thank you. :)
[04:39] <Theshkalai> ♦ Explain yourself, River of Spears.
[04:39] <Nenkadu> No.
[04:39] <Lia> :P
[04:40] <Theshkalai> ♦ ...I must confess my surprise. You would throw your chance for freedom from Earth away?
[04:41] <Nenkadu> I am not possessed of any need to justify my actions to you.
[04:41] <Nenkadu> Nor am I ever.
[04:42] <Lia> You have my thanks, Nenkadu.
[04:42] <Nenkadu> Keep them.
[04:42] <Nenkadu> What would I do with your gratitude?
[04:42] <Lia> It's not meant to be kept as coin. :(
[04:43] <Nenkadu> Exactly my point.
[04:43] <Lia> Exactly mine, too. >:|
[04:44] <Theshkalai> ♦ As much as I relish watching the two of you bicker about trivia, you seem to have your protectors.
[04:45] <Lia> ...that is so. I yield the floor, such as it is. Is there anything else the two of you would speak of?
[04:45] <Nenkadu> What news of Juan-and-Matilda?
[04:47] <Theshkalai> ♦ They cavort in the dark and distant places far from here. New lives have been sown. Perhaps one in twenty of their creations yet exists as a viable race that has survived the other horrors that lurk beneath.
[04:48] <Lia> Do they seem to have an agenda?
[04:48] <Theshkalai> ♦ Finding all the ways that a tab A can fit into a slot B.
[04:49] <Theshkalai> ♦ The fruit of their works, such as it is, seems completely incidental. I will enjoy keeping tabs on them for some time, I think.
[04:50] <Nenkadu> Hnn. I have no other business.
[04:50] <Theshkalai> ♦ Nor I.
[04:50] <Lia> Then go in grace, honored kin, and may the next crossing of our paths be similarly peaceful.

[20:51] <Matsumi Kaze> ...am I forgetting what I am..who I am...
[20:51] <Matsumi Kaze> .....am I even a senshi anymore....
[20:51] * Matsumi Kaze sighs...
[20:52] * Matsumi Kaze rubs the back of her neck
[20:53] *** the sand subtly starts to move a bit behind her
[20:53] <Matsumi Kaze> ...or am I losing touch with that.....
[20:53] * Matsumi Kaze picks up a small stone and tosses it across the sea
[20:54] *** the sand bursts up from behind her, a creature leaping into the air
[20:54] * Matsumi Kaze quickly turns..and gets kicked across the face, sending her sprawling into the ground
[20:54] <Matsumi Kaze> ugh....
[20:54] * Matsumi Kaze glances over...
[20:55] *** the creature is a scorpion woman with one hand a claw, the other a normal hand...a cobra is wrapped around her neck which ends with a stinger
[20:56] <Sasori-Hebi Woman> HISSSSSSAAARRR
[20:56] <Matsumi Kaze> ..what the he-
[20:57] * Matsumi Kaze quickly rolls out of the way, as the woman's cobra sprays a green mist..which dissolves a rock
[20:57] <Sasori-Hebi Woman> HISSSSAAAARRRRRR
[20:58] <Matsumi Kaze> great..these monsters get weirder all the time
[20:59] * Matsumi Kaze quickly stands...and leaps into the air....transforming in mid kick

[21:02] * Ultra Sailor Quinox slowly gets up..then leaps out of the way from a claw slash from the monster
[21:02] *** the tree crashes forward onto the beach
[21:03] * Ultra Sailor Quinox rolls out of the way of another slash..
[21:04] * Ultra Sailor Quinox gathers energy into her fists...
[21:05] <Ultra Sailor Quinox> Event-
[21:05] * Sasori-Hebi Woman turns and sends the cobra's stinger tail towrds Quinox
[21:08] * Ultra Sailor Quinox barely avoids it, losing the charge in her hands in the process
[21:08] <Ultra Sailor Quinox> crap!
[21:13] * Ultra Sailor Quinox slowly gets up, only to have the cobra tail wrap around her neck..and lift her into the air
[21:16] <Ultra Sailor Quinox> urk..ugh...

[19:43] <Amanda Sharlan> This is Amanda
[19:43] * Customer sounds like a very cultured and well-bred young man
[19:43] <Customer> ♦ I...got your name from one of my higher ups, and...we've got a huge problem ehre
[19:44] <Customer> ♦ He recommended you...we've had a security breach

[19:46] * Amanda Sharlan blinks..."Alright. Where do you need me to go?"
[19:48] <Customer> ♦ It's...complicated...any way you can get to the Tokyo Sky Tree and we can pick you up?
[19:48] <Customer> ♦ We can't let the media know about this is why.
[19:48] <Amanda Sharlan> Very well then...I'll be there in about 15 minutes
[19:49] <Customer> ♦ Ah! You'll take it?
[19:50] <Amanda Sharlan> Of course.
[19:50] <Customer> ♦ I hadn't even gotten to compensation...since you're in a rush I would be willing to give you a million yen...
[19:50] <Amanda Sharlan> No rush. You sound like you need the help.
[19:50] <Amanda Sharlan> When do you need me?
[19:51] <Customer> ♦ You said you'd be ready in 15 minutes? We'll be there in 15 minutes.
[19:51] <Amanda Sharlan> Very well then. Tokyo Sky Tree in 15 minutes.

[20:38] * Left Clone is a man with braided dirty blonde hair and green eyes. He's wearing a combination of a cossack hat and a ringmaster's uniform.
[20:38] <Simon Kerrick> Wow. That's a lot of snow.
[20:38] <Solartiger> You mean like shooting you before you finish that sentence?
[20:38] <Left Clone> I will call my friends in Tokyo and they'll do some plastic surgery on your friend.
[20:38] * Simon Kerrick looks at his robes blowing wildly in the wind.
[20:39] <Left Clone> And when I say "plastic surgery," I mean "cut off something."
[20:39] <Solartiger> A bit hard to call if your brains have been blown out, mister.
[20:39] <Joanna Smithson> like we'd let you...
[20:39] <Solartiger> I call it pastique surgery.
[20:40] <Solartiger> ^plastique
[20:40] * Left Clone glances at Suu "Bring out that dragon radar thing."
[20:40] * Suu sullenly takes it out of her pocket
[20:40] <Left Clone> Hmm. A bit old fashioned, but sophisticated nonetheless...hmm, let me see here
[20:40] <Simon Kerrick> What exactly do you guys want, for the record?
[20:41] <Left Clone> You mean, in general, or for when we make our Dragon Ball wish?
[20:41] <Simon Kerrick> I'm interested in both, actually.
[20:42] <Left Clone> ...Simple. We wish to cleanse the world of sin.
[20:42] * Simon Kerrick snickers.
[20:42] <Joanna Smithson> oh one of these kind...
[20:43] <Left Clone> Free the Soul will usher in a new era...
[20:43] <Left Clone> But honestly, I'm just babbling. Have some coffee.
[20:43] <Simon Kerrick> Did you mention souls?
[20:43] <Left Clone> And no, it's not spiked or anything. I wouldn't stoop that low.
[20:43] <Left Clone> But you're going to NEED it where we're going.
[20:43] <Suu> ...no.
[20:44] <Simon Kerrick> I'll have some. Where is it?
[20:44] * Solartiger just gives the CLone a baleful look.
[20:44] * Left Clone points to the campfire, there's a bunch of battered tin cups beside it
[20:45] <Suu> The place where we're going...
[20:45] * Simon Kerrick drinks some of the coffee.
[20:45] <Suu> it's kind of near the crater where the Tungusa incident happened, isn't it?
[20:45] <Left Clone> We're close to that, yes.
[20:46] * Solartiger looks completely unaffected by the weather.
[20:46] * Suu looks away toward the direction where everyone will be traveling
[20:46] * Simon Kerrick also looks very detached from the wind that is blowing his unusually loose-looking robes about his frame.
[20:46] <Joanna Smithson> the what hey?
[20:47] <Solartiger> Tunguska. An extraterrestrial impactor dated to 1908.
[20:47] <Left Clone> Nice answer, metal man.
[20:47] <Joanna Smithson> oh that weird metor thing or whatever it was?
[20:48] <Simon Kerrick> I've never heard of such. What is everybody talking about?
[20:48] <Simon+Kerrick> Tungus
[20:48] <Left Clone> Huh, you don't get around much, Goth boy.
[20:48] <Simon+Kerrick> Tungus
[20:49] <Solartiger> Tunguska is the name of the region we're in, the explosion is named for it.
[20:49] <Left Clone> Enough jibber jabber. Lead the way, little lady.
[20:49] <Simon Kerrick> Tunguska Impactor? Never heard of such a thing.
[20:49] * Left Clone looks in Suu's direction
[20:50] <Solartiger> Before your time, Kerrick.
[20:50] <Left Clone> Oh, I'm sorry. Your feelings are still hurt.
[20:50] * Simon Kerrick walks over to the Clone.
[20:50] <Left Clone> Perhaps maybe we should have someone else lead, then?
[20:50] * Suu glares at Left
[20:50] <Simon Kerrick> You know, you look a LOT like the other people we have... "Met."
[20:50] <Left Clone> We're all brothers.
[20:51] <Left Clone> We are the Myrmidons...the pinnacle of human evolution.
[20:51] * Left Clone begins walking towards a clearing
[20:51] <Joanna Smithson> you're the pinnacle?
[20:51] <Left Clone> We have been carefully bred and selected. We are decendents from the brother of our Holy Father, the true Left.
[20:51] <Solartiger> Sounds like you suffer from sin yourself.
[20:52] <Simon Kerrick> "Left?"
[20:52] <Left Clone> Heh...
[20:52] <Simon Kerrick> I just don't get you guys... well, kind of... I guess I KIND of understand.
[20:53] <Left Clone> Hmmm?
[20:53] * Left Clone smirks at Simon
[20:53] <Solartiger> Left? As in seated at the left hand?
[20:53] * Suu walks alongside, looking at her feet
[20:53] * Simon Kerrick doesn't get the reference. "Huh?"
[20:53] * Simon Kerrick holds up his left hand.
[20:54] <Solartiger> It refers to heirs to kingship, I believe.
[20:54] <Simon Kerrick> So, you sinless fellows... assuming I understand what "sin" means, suggests you would actually give over your hostage if we gave you the dragonballs?
[20:54] <Joanna Smithson> doesn't left in latin mean...sinister?
[20:55] <Left Clone> Of course.
[20:55] <Left Clone> You may take us at our word.
[20:55] * Simon Kerrick shrugs.
[20:55] <Left Clone> But once you're back in Japan, you have until sunrise.
[20:56] <Simon Kerrick> It's not up to me. Count yourself lucky.
[20:56] *** You're all walking towards a grove of trees...The perfect place for Slenderman to hide.
[20:56] <Simon Kerrick> Are you actually supposed to come with us?
[20:56] * Joanna Smithson keeps to flying
[20:57] * Simon Kerrick is looking at the clone.
[20:57] * Solartiger has yet to run across the Slenderman legend.
[20:57] <Left Clone> Of course. You're going to be the ones to help me get it.
[20:57] <Simon Kerrick> Mmmmm. Well, if they sent you along, you are expendable enough to not warrant killing. I guess we will follow you. For now.
[20:58] * Simon Kerrick walks behind the clone, utterly uncaring about the cold and wind.
[20:58] <Left Clone> I'd tell you what we have planned if you DIDN'T cooperate with us, but...we've got such sensitive young ears here
[20:58] * Suu huddles in her coat, she's shaking more out of rage than from cold
[20:58] <Left Clone> Stop.
[20:59] <Left Clone> We're near where it's located...but the terrain's very hilly and it's a long way down.
[20:59] * Joanna Smithson stops in midair
[20:59] * Left Clone turns around and addresses everyone "Here's where we'll need to search...looks like we've got the aerial search covered.
[20:59] <Left Clone> As for the other two of you...you go down there and search for the Dragon Ball.
[21:00] * Left Clone holds up the Dragon Radar, the ball can be seen flashing on the screen
[21:00] <Left Clone> As soon as you get it...bring it back up to me here.
[21:00] <Left Clone> If I even sense one moment's hesitation...
[21:00] <Simon Kerrick> Heh... after we are done here, you won't be needing that little Dragon Radar, right?
[21:00] * Left Clone smirks at Suu
[21:00] <Simon Kerrick> >.>
[21:00] <Left Clone> I don't believe I need to tell you
[21:01] * Joanna Smithson frowns a little bit but nods
[21:01] <Simon Kerrick> Probably not. I have a pretty good idea.
[21:01] <Left Clone> So, chop chop, people.
[21:01] <Suu> ...
[21:01] * Simon Kerrick sits down.
[21:01] <Solartiger> If you sense hesitation, it is me not eviscerating you where you stand.
[21:02] <Simon Kerrick> Don't smash the radar.
[21:02] <Solartiger> You might find it interesting to watch yourself dissected.
[21:02] <Simon Kerrick> Alright, so who's going down?
[21:02] * Solartiger then trudges off towards where the radar was indicating a dragonball.
[21:03] *** OK folks...searching will be handled by 1d20 rolls
[21:03] * Joanna Smithson flies towards the location and moves up a bit higher
[21:03] *** If you're down on the ground...roll a 1d20, I'll let you know if you're cold or warm
[21:03] <spiritflame> Solartiger rolls 1d20 [ 19 ]
[21:03] *** I'll randomly generate a number, hold on
[21:03] <spiritflame> Simon Kerrick rolls 1d20 [ 9 ]
[21:04] *** Solartiger is cold, Simon Kerrick is hot
[21:04] *** Those of you in the air...roll 1d20 and do likewise
[21:04] <spiritflame> Suu rolls 1d20 [ 16 ]
[21:04] <spiritflame> Joanna Smithson rolls 1d20 [ 14 ]
[21:05] <Suu> (( Cold for Suu and Joanna ))
[21:05] * Simon Kerrick looks around, casting Detect Magic, and carefully looking for signs of powerful magic.
[21:05] *** ^
[21:05] <Joanna Smithson> geh this is harder then it seems....
[21:05] * Left Clone drinks some leftover coffee and watches everyone search
[21:06] <Suu> Joanna
[21:06] <Suu> do you think...we should ambush him
[21:06] * Simon Kerrick keeps looking.
[21:06] <Joanna Smithson> think that's possible?
[21:06] <spiritflame> Simon Kerrick rolls 1d20 [ 16 ]
[21:06] <Joanna Smithson> ..well I could try a solar flare on him....
[21:06] <spiritflame> Joanna Smithson rolls 1d20 [ 3 ]
[21:07] * Solartiger continues a methodical spiral search pattern.
[21:07] <spiritflame> Solartiger rolls 1d20 [ 5 ]
[21:07] * Joanna Smithson keeps looking in the meantime
[21:07] <spiritflame> Suu rolls 1d20 [ 15 ]
[21:08] * Suu continues scanning from the air
[21:08] *** by the way: cold cold cold cold
[21:08] <Joanna Smithson> what do you think, suu?
[21:08] <Suu> has he got a phone or something to link back to Tokyo?"
[21:08] * Simon Kerrick gets SolarTiger's attention.
[21:09] <Suu> if we take him...then we'd need to cut any communication links
[21:09] * Solartiger looks at Simon as he continues his search.
[21:09] <Joanna Smithson> I don't know..can't remember
[21:10] <spiritflame> Suu rolls 1d20 [ 3 ]
[21:10] <spiritflame> Solartiger rolls 1d20 [ 11 ]
[21:10] * Left Clone seems to be watching something on his phone
[21:11] <Suu> He does have something...
[21:11] * Simon Kerrick mouths the words, "killing him is useless. They would never have sent somebody worth interrogating or killing. I'd have dominated him by now, otherwise."
[21:11] <Suu> we'd have to destroy it or something first...
[21:11] <spiritflame> Joanna Smithson rolls 1d20 [ 7 ]
[21:11] * Simon Kerrick looks into a little tree cavity.
[21:11] <Joanna Smithson> looks like he has a phone
[21:12] <Joanna Smithson> well..I can give it a try...
[21:12] *** Joanna is warm!!
[21:13] <spiritflame> Simon Kerrick rolls 1d20 [ 10 ]
[21:13] * Joanna Smithson clenches her fist while saying this..slowly forming a very small ki ball in her hand
[21:13] <Joanna Smithson> shall we go for it?
[21:13] * Joanna Smithson keeps looking around..
[21:13] <Suu> I don't know...
[21:13] <spiritflame> Joanna Smithson rolls 1d20 [ 7 ]
[21:13] <Suu> let's...keep looking
[21:14] *** Gettng warmer
[21:14] <Joanna Smithson> ok
[21:14] * Solartiger ponders the tactical situation.
[21:14] <spiritflame> Solartiger rolls 1d20 [ 18 ]
[21:14] <spiritflame> Simon Kerrick rolls 1d20 [ 13 ]
[21:15] <spiritflame> Joanna Smithson rolls 1d20 [ 2 ]
[21:15] <spiritflame> Suu rolls 1d20 [ 10 ]
[21:15] * Simon Kerrick raises his hands, chants for a moment, and blasts all the leaves a twigs away from a small stand of trees to destroy the cover.
[21:16] <spiritflame> Simon Kerrick rolls 1d20 [ 19 ]
[21:16] * Left Clone listens to music
[21:16] <Simon Kerrick> Nope, nothing here either.
[21:16] * Solartiger glances over at Left...
[21:17] <Solartiger> he may not know anything, but he IS their source of information on us, Simon.
[21:17] * Left Clone leans back against a tree
[21:17] * Joanna Smithson keeps looking
[21:17] <spiritflame> Joanna Smithson rolls 1d20 [ 8 ]
[21:17] <spiritflame> Suu rolls 1d20 [ 14 ]
[21:17] <Simon Kerrick> "I doubt it. That's not how I'd do it."
[21:17] *** Joanna finds the Dragon Ball!
[21:17] <Joanna Smithson> !!!
[21:17] <spiritflame> Solartiger rolls 1d20 [ 20 ]
[21:17] * Simon Kerrick is currently looking for other suspicious people in the area, instead of for the ball.
[21:17] * Joanna Smithson lands.....and picks up the dragon ball
[21:17] <Suu> Shhhh!
[21:17] <Joanna Smithson> ........whoa..
[21:18] <Suu> I have a plan
[21:18] * Joanna Smithson blinks then nods
[21:18] <Joanna Smithson> ok
[21:18] <Suu> leave it here for now...go up and say that we need his help getting it down
[21:18] <Suu> maybe put it up in that tree?
[21:18] * Solartiger scans the area with his enhanced vision.
[21:19] * Suu points up to a tree with gnarled branches...
[21:19] <Suu> say it's really hard to fly in and we need someone that's tall
[21:19] * Joanna Smithson nods..and flies up to the tree, placing the dragon ball in the tree
[21:19] * Simon Kerrick continues to look for other people in the area.
[21:19] <Joanna Smithson> ok
[21:20] * Joanna Smithson turns and flies towards Left
[21:20] <Suu> we'll gang up on him once he tries to go for the ball
[21:20] <Left Clone> Heeey. Found it yet?
[21:21] <Joanna Smithson> yeah but we have a problem
[21:21] <Joanna Smithson> it's in a tree..and we're having some trouble getting to it as it's not easy to fly up to it
[21:21] * Simon Kerrick walks over, too.
[21:21] <Joanna Smithson> mind giving us a hand? we could use the height
[21:21] <Left Clone> Oh, really?
[21:21] * Left Clone sighs "Guess I'll give you guys a hand"
[21:21] <Left Clone> Lead me to it
[21:22] <Simon Kerrick> ♦ Wouldn't your superiors look well on you personally getting it?"
[21:22] * Simon Kerrick 's eyes are glowing for some reason while he is saying this.
[21:22] <Left Clone> Hmm...you do have a point
[21:22] * Joanna Smithson nods and heads for the tree, leading Left towards it
[21:22] * Joanna Smithson glances towards suu a bit
[21:23] <Solartiger> I'll give you a boost?
[21:23] * Suu nods
[21:23] <Left Clone> Ah...there...no wonder you couldn't get it
[21:23] <Left Clone> Meh, it's an easy climb, no skin off my nose
[21:24] * Solartiger offers Left a hand getting up higher...
[21:24] <Simon Kerrick> Indeed.
[21:24] * Left Clone climbs up the tree
[21:24] <Suu> everyone, listen
[21:25] * Solartiger listens
[21:25] * Joanna Smithson listens
[21:25] <Suu> what's your range like
[21:26] <Solartiger> anything I can see.
[21:26] <Left Clone> Damn, did this thing get lodged in here or what
[21:26] <Joanna Smithson> I can fire ki projectiles pretty far
[21:26] <Suu> do it now
[21:26] ☼ Scouter indicates Left Clone has HP and MP levels of 250 / 1000!!
[21:27] * Joanna Smithson nods and zooms into the air
[21:27] <Joanna Smithson> (( should we senzu? ))
[21:27] <Solartiger> You see why we wanted help, then!
[21:27] ☼ Scouter indicates Solartiger has HP and MP levels of 250 / 1000!!
[21:28] ☼ Scouter indicates Joanna Smithson has HP and MP levels of 250 / 1000!!

[21:28] *** everyone /senzu
[21:28] * Joanna Smithson hovers in the air and holds her hands over her head, gathering ki into a ball
[21:28] ☼ Scouter indicates Suu has HP and MP levels of 250 / 1000!!
[21:28] <Left Clone> S[BLEEP]t, I can't get it out...
[21:28] <Left Clone> ah, there we go....
[21:28] <Left Clone> oh s[BLEEP]t
[21:28] [250 HP / 1000 MP] Joanna Smithson fires the ball into a beam blast aimed towards Left (-0 MP)
[21:29] <Simon Kerrick> Like I said, you won't be needing that radar.
[21:29] <@spiritflame> The current battle order is: Joanna , Simon , Left, Solartiger , Suu
[21:29] [249 HP / 1007 MP] Left Clone has BLOCKED the attack! (1 damage)
[21:29] * Solartiger takes careful note of where Left's communication device is.
[21:29] * Left Clone blocks with his massive fur hat
[21:29] <Left Clone> seriously, what the f[BLEEP]k?
[21:29] <Joanna Smithson> gah!
[21:29] <Left Clone> Oh, I get it...
[21:29] * Left Clone smiles
[21:30] <Left Clone> Couldn't take seeing one of your dear friends hurt, could you...
[21:30] <Left Clone> Think you can be a hero?
[21:31] [250 HP / 900 MP] Simon Kerrick unleashes a 69 hit COMBO! (-100 MP) [ /sell 4]
[21:31] * Simon Kerrick reaches out while chanting, and a bunch of large rocks and limbs fly toward the jackass while he's still in the tree.
[21:31] [249 HP / 1008 MP] Left Clone has PARRIED the attack! [ Opponent: /sell 4 ] (0 damage)
[21:32] [138 HP / 917 MP] Simon Kerrick has been HIT!! (x 4 Hits) (112 damage)
[21:32] * Left Clone bends back a branch and sends the mess back to Simon
[21:32] <Left Clone> Heh.
[21:32] <Left Clone> So...we're going to play rough, aren't we...
[21:32] * Left Clone reaches for his belt
[21:32] [249 HP / 1003 MP] Left Clone draws a gun and shoots directly at Suu (-5 MP)
[21:33] [190 HP / 1018 MP] Suu has been HIT!! (60 damage)
[21:33] <Suu> GAHHHH!!!!
[21:33] * Suu gets the bullet in her sword arm
[21:33] <Solartiger> That was a mistake.
[21:34] <Joanna Smithson> !!! suu!
[21:34] [250 HP / 500 MP] SPECIAL ATK: Solartiger fires a three round burst of 50mm Bolter shells, attempting to put one of them through Left's phone. (-500 MP)

[21:34] * Left Clone gets knocked out of the tree by the attack and ends up on the ground
[21:35] * Left Clone 's phone gets shot and breaks
[21:35] <Left Clone> ugh...ghaaaahh...
[21:35] <Left Clone> Oh...Oh holy Brother...Almighty One...
[21:36] <Suu> ...
[21:36] <Joanna Smithson> ...
[21:36] * Left Clone is clutching the Dragon Ball
[21:36] [250 HP / 495 MP] Solartiger steps lightly on Left's chest with his foot. (-5 MP)
[21:36] <Simon Kerrick> I love this part.
[21:36] * Suu reaches down and takes it
[21:36] [-41 HP / 1045 MP] Left Clone has taken a CRITICAL HIT!! (43 damage)
[21:36] Left Clone has BEEN DEFEATED!!!
[21:36] <Suu> ...
[21:36] * Simon Kerrick snickers.
[21:37] <Solartiger> I told him what I would do.
[21:37] <Suu> we have to head back.
[21:37] <Joanna Smithson> yeah..
[21:37] * Simon Kerrick looks for the comms device.
[21:37] <Suu> Solartiger...do you think you can salvage that phone and find out if he sent a report or something before we...
[21:38] <Solartiger> If I hit off center, maybe.
[21:38] * Solartiger hands Suu one of his Boltershells.
[21:38] <Suu> ?
[21:38] * Suu looks at the Boltershell
[21:38] <Solartiger> It is roughly the size of a 16oz soda bottle.
[21:39] * Solartiger notes^
[21:39] <Solartiger> That's what I hit him with three of.
[21:39] <Suu> ...
[21:40] <Joanna Smithson> hey suu *flicks a bean to Suu*
[21:40] <Suu> so...let's operate on the assumption he HASN'T reported back.
[21:40] * Suu gets hit in the face with the bean "Ow!"
[21:40] <Joanna Smithson> ....
[21:41] * Joanna Smithson picks up the bean and hands it to suu
[21:41] <Solartiger> Do you want me to call Aes? He might be able to survive if we get him to a hospital.
[21:41] <Suu> ...
[21:41] <Suu> leave him here
[21:41] <Simon Kerrick> I like it.
[21:42] * Solartiger looks in Suu's eyes for a long moment.
[21:43] <Simon Kerrick> You know, Suu.
[21:43] <Simon Kerrick> Whether he lives or dies... I could... I know where to take him.
[21:43] <Suu> we...have to get back for Amanda.
[21:44] <Solartiger> For Amanda, then.
[21:44] * Joanna Smithson nods
[21:45] * Solartiger nods, seeing the avenging angel in Suu's eyes.
[21:45] <Suu> we...need to figure out where Amanda is
[21:45] <Suu> I'm not going to give them the rest of the Dragon Balls
[21:46] * Simon Kerrick nods in approval. "So you have learned.
[21:46] <Solartiger> I can have Aes run a trace on your phone, Suu?
[21:46] <Solartiger> See where the call you got earlier was from?
[21:46] * Simon Kerrick looks where the Dragon Radar was dropped.
[21:47] * Suu hands Solar her phone
[21:47] <Simon Kerrick> Huh, I could have sworn he was holding that Dragon Radar...
[21:48] * Solartiger contacts Aes over his commlink and gives him Suu's phone number...
[21:49] * Solartiger waits while Aes does a search.
[21:49] <Suu> It's right where he was sitting up at the top of the ravine
[21:50] * Simon Kerrick casts [i]Telekinesis[/t] and retrieves the dragon radar, bringing it to his hand.
[21:50] <Solartiger> (( /DM the results, Bucket. ))
[21:50] <Simon Kerrick> Nice.
[21:51] <Simon Kerrick> Very nice.
[21:52] *** Suu's phone reveals that the call was made from a property on the grounds of Cradle Pharmaceuticals.
[21:52] <Simon Kerrick> They won'tiss him. I'm sure they probably expected him to die.
[21:53] <Solartiger> Cradle Pharmaceuticals mean anything to you Suu?
[21:54] <Solartiger> Aes gave us an address as well...
[21:54] <Suu> Yes...we've been there before.
[21:54] <Suu> and I have a feeling they'll probably be expecting us if we go there...
[21:54] <Suu> so...let's get back to Tokyo ASAP
[21:54] * Suu clutches her wounded arm
[21:55] * Solartiger opens his medicae and puts a bandage on Suu's arm.
[21:55] <Joanna Smithson> yeah lets
[21:56] <Solartiger> I don't mind hard targets, Suu.
[21:56] <Suu> oh wait
[21:57] <Suu> ...how are we getting back?
[21:58] <Joanna Smithson> ....that's a good point
[21:58] <Simon Kerrick> I can teleport.
[21:58] <Solartiger> Aes will transport us, if you want?
[21:58] <Simon Kerrick> Easily.
[21:58] <Simon Kerrick> There are few enough of you that I could take you too.
[21:59] <Suu> Let's go, then.
[21:59] * Simon Kerrick extends his hands.
[21:59] <Solartiger> Back to the Hotel?
[22:00] <Suu> Yes...and then we go and find Amanda.
[22:00] <Simon Kerrick> Or the Theatre, or the Enchanted Forest. All are possible destinations.
[22:00] <Solartiger> All right.
[22:00] <Simon Kerrick> But I think the Hotel would be smartest. Ready?
[22:01] <Solartiger> Ready.
[22:01] <Joanna Smithson> same
[22:01] <Suu> okay...let's go
[22:02] *** Suu [FourLeafClover@clampgakuen.ac.jp] has left #suburbansenshi3 (Flying towards the future)
[22:02] *** Solartiger [Solartiger@galacticempire.gov] has left #suburbansenshi3 (For the God-Emperor!)
[22:02] *** Joanna Smithson has left #suburbansenshi3
[22:03] *** The spell pulls everyone past images of fire and earth, of plenty and of death, and the surroundings of Siberia turn into the Hotel Lobby.
[22:03] *** Simon Kerrick has quit IRC (Always ready for a Getaway.)
[14:19] *** Cora has joined #suburbansenshi3
[14:19] <@spiritflame> konnichiwa cora

[14:20] <@spiritflame> konnichiwa matsumi kaze
[14:22] <Cora> Miss Matsumi...
[14:23] <Matsumi Kaze> yes?
[14:23] <Cora> About the other day.
[14:24] <Cora> Um..I was wondering...if you could tell me what I have done. To lead you to think that, I mean.
[14:25] <Matsumi Kaze> huh...
[14:25] <Matsumi Kaze> ...no no it's just...
[14:25] <Matsumi Kaze> ..I was making a joke but....
[14:25] <Matsumi Kaze> ...I keep forgetting your morals
[14:26] <Cora> I am not sure I understand.
[14:29] <Matsumi Kaze> ..well I was just...joking that that might be the reason for those things
[14:29] <Matsumi Kaze> ..you are used to another time and things are different and....I don't know
[14:29] <Cora> What things?
[14:32] <Matsumi Kaze> I don't know it's so hard to explain
[14:32] <Matsumi Kaze> what I said I didn't mean in any serious way
[14:34] <Cora> Oh. I see.
[14:38] <Matsumi Kaze> sorry about that..
[14:39] <Cora> Such accusations are quite serious.
[14:39] <Matsumi Kaze> LOOK WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO, DRAW YOU A PICTURE!?
[14:39] <Matsumi Kaze> ..............
[14:40] <Cora> Perhaps it is best if you do not make such "jokes" to me, as I do not understand.
[14:42] <Cora> I am sorry to have taken so much of your time.
[14:42] <Matsumi Kaze> ....yeah...maybe I shouldn't...
[14:45] <Matsumi Kaze> ..if you excuse me...
[14:46] *** Matsumi Kaze [AirGal@QTech.com] has left #suburbansenshi3 (I have work to do)
[14:49] *** Cora has left #suburbansenshi3 (yet, there must be something...?)
[20:48] <@spiritflame> Current Location is: Cradle Pharmaceutical
[20:48] <Suu> ...
[20:49] * Suu is crouched on top of a building, hiding under a roof extension
[20:50] <Suu> hopefully Raihosha's got those VERY well hidden by now...
[20:50] <Suu> if my hunch is correct...they should be completely off the radar.
[20:52] <Suu> ...I've got to do something. If they find out that we left him in Siberia to rot...
[20:52] * Suu clenches her fist tightly
[20:53] <Suu> I can't think about that. I have to find where they've got Amanda.
[20:56] * Suu looks around tryinng to find lights in the windows
[20:56] <Suu> I've got to find a way in somewhere
[21:05] * Suu looks around for a place that looks interesting
[21:05] <Suu> now if I were an army of freaky creepy blonde guys, where would I hide Amanda...
[21:07] * Suu looks for people entering/exiting a building at this time of night
[21:09] <Suu> ....
[21:09] * Suu swallows her fear...
[21:10] <Suu> Amanda's depending on me. I have to do this.
[21:10] * Suu decides to switch to the top of a different building, looks around a bit and carefully vaults across the gap between this roof and the next, her wings carrying her
[21:12] * Suu lands on the roof...and hears a voice down below
[21:13] <Voice> ♦ "...really weird, everything except the one we have just vanished from the radar"
[21:15] <Voice> ♦ "He never reported back to us last night, either. I'm fearing the worst."
[21:16] <Voice> ♦ "Meh, no big deal. Good thing we dumped the body pretty quickly."
[21:16] <Suu> ....
[21:16] <Suu> ......
[21:16] * Suu clenches her fist
