[DeathStar] Location: Conference Room
[DeathStar] GM: Snipe has called a meeting to conviene in 10 minutes.
[GM] GM: He is still not shown up.
* Ripple stretches, leaning back in his chair, making it creak
[DeathStar] NRP: Lord, the typos.
* DeathStar stands next to the viewport, looking out
[Ripple] NRP Shines getting to you DS]
* Garland sits in his seat, drinking a mug of coffee
* Spirit sits back, feet up on the table
[DeathStar] So, you get the memo from Snipe?  'New changes'?  'Hunters' only?  I have a bad feeling about this...
[SOUND]
[Ripple] ... What fun.  
* Garland mutters something about "hunters"
* DeathStar rests hand on Garland's shoulder
[DeathStar] What was that?
* Ripple looks at spirit, a sparkle in his eye, and he turns away
[Spirit] What?  Oh, I guess I shouldn't be here...
* Spirit grins
[Garland] Nothing....It's just....
[Spirit] NRP: Hey, what name should I use for the "real" Spirit?
[DeathStar] We've discovered the Hunters before.  I feel we stand on the saem ground
* Garland looks at DS
[DeathStar] NRP: "The Real Spirit"?
[Ripple] NRP: Andrea?
[Spirit] NRP: Andrea works, thanks.
[Garland] I know...
[DeathStar] Anyway, eight more minutes and the others aren't here.  I think Snipe's going to blow a casket.
[Ripple] [So how are you holding up Andrea?]
[Ripple] What do you expect?
[DeathStar] Cleaning duties.
[Spirit] [[Andrea]] [Well enough...  I guess...  This is still... freaky to say the least.]
* DeathStar watches Spirit and Ripple
* Garland sips his coffee, so diluted with french vannilla cream it's nearly white
[Ripple] What do you want DS?
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] 10*messes with Ripple's hair using telekenesis out of bordem...
[DeathStar] Just watching.
* DeathStar shifts to watch Garland
* Garland is taking gulps from his mug..... a huge one he got for christmas one year
[Spirit] u.u zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
[DeathStar] ...you really like coffee these days..
[Ripple] *To Andrea* [You have any clue how to get your body back?  Its a tad hard to kiss something that doesnt exsist in the physical plane...]
[Garland] Yeah... keeps me awake.... X2 says I should try sleeping more.
[Ripple] Hey Garland, you been drinking my supreme caffine recipe?
* DeathStar remembers X1's coffee.
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] *To Ripple* [I wish I knew, but I'm really at a loss here...]
* Garland holds out his mug, pleadingly
[Garland] Never tried it....
* Ripple floats a coffee pot in from his room, and pours Garland a cup
[DeathStar] ...why do I have the feeling this is the beginning of something bad?
[Ripple] Careful.. dont spill any.. eats through steel like an acid.
[Garland] Thanks. *takes a big gulp*
[DeathStar] ...and perhaps the very short end of it...
* Snipe steps in as the door opens; it slides closed behind him
[Garland] ..... spicy, ya know?
[Ripple] Yep.  Special brand.
*** Diamondback (speedblad@63.84.139.62) has joined #TAW
[Ripple] G'day Snipe.
* Snipe looks around
[Snipe] One more minute until the meeting.
* Snipe walks around the conference room
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [I've talked to X2... *stifles a laugh* but he didn't have a clue...]
*** Snipe sets mode: +o Diamondback
[Ripple] [Well, things between us have a way of working out.... *big mental smile*]
[Ripple] NRP; *idly wonders how you can smile mentally.*
[Snipe] Alright, every sit down.
[Snipe] NRP: You picture it?
[Spirit] NRP: The feeling of a smile?
[Ripple] NRP: all of the above?
[Ripple] I am Snipe..
* DeathStar sits down
* Snipe raises eyebrow
[Snipe] Uh, yes, right.  Little off today, sorry./
[Ripple] No prob.  
[Snipe] Alright, everyone else is late.
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [I'm here... Not that you even know I exist now...]
[Snipe] They'll have to be dealt with later.
* Garland looks at Snipe
[Snipe] I'll make sure Grave, Chris, and Elayne...*sigh* And whoever else I can't think of right now
[Ripple] [Hey, careful with that attitude Andrea.... You need to keep hope alive.]
[Ripple] NRP: *is currently playing that mp3*

[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [No, seriously Andrew, Snipe can't even tell I'm alive right now. That psi block of his, remember?]
[DeathStar] Alright, so, enough about the others, what's the big meeting about?
* Garland wonders where Elayne is right now, anyway.
[Ripple] [I know.  If you have anything to say, ill tell it to em.]
[Snipe] NRP: Knowing her...
[Snipe] NRP: *pictures Elayne fighting a war*
[Spirit] u.u zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
[Ripple] NRP: *and breaking a nail*
* Snipe glances at Spirit
[Snipe] Spirit...
* Sound request: can't find 'slayers_-_never_never_give_up.mp3'
* Spirit plays [Slayers_-_Never_Never_Give_Up.mp3] - 6629k - [i²]
[Garland] NRP: Elayne: PINK RANGER! POWER UP!
[Ripple] ... Call it Spirits body.
[Ripple] Spirits been... displaced as it were...
[Snipe] ...yes, yes I would call that Spirit's body Andrew.
[Garland] NRP: She's out fighting the T. and we never knew it.
* Snipe leans back in chair
[Snipe] Say what?
[Snipe] NRP: Wonder who won the war..
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] 10*Mentally prods Spirit and she wakes up with a start*
[Spirit] Whaaaaaa!
[Snipe] ...Spirit.
[Ripple] Her... pardon the pun.. spirit is floating freely in the room... Lift my coffee cup to show em your alive Andrea
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Hey! No ghosty stuff!]
* Diamondback runs into the conference room, screeching to a quick stop
[Diamondback] [Crap crap crap... Sorry I'm late...]
[Snipe] You're late, Chris....
* Garland watches DB skid in
[Ripple] [C'mon its the only way to show Snipe you are alive and... kicking...]
[Garland] Hi Chris.
[DeathStar] Vey...
[Diamondback] [Garland, DS, Snipe, Andrew.] *nods*
[Spirit] Your later Carter ^.~
[Ripple] G'day, just a tad late eh.
[Snipe] And not even anything to apologise, Chris?  Sit down...*sighs* Rude people..
[Diamondback] Oh yeah, bloody psi block... Sorry I'm late.
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Fine...] *writes "Spirit was here" infront of Snipe with a pencil*
[Ripple] NRP: oh good... *winamp is playing calling your name from MK:A soundtrack as Snipe didnt see anything by spirit..
[DeathStar] [Snipe has a bug on his shirt...should we tell him?]
[Snipe] Alright, Chris.
[Ripple] [Nah, he'll find out when it gets to his nose.]
[Diamondback] [Nah, let 'im suffer.]
* Snipe glances down in front of him.
[Snipe] ....'Spirit was here'?
* Garland sips his coffee
* Spirit is asleep again
[Ripple] .. Andreas spirit.  
[Garland] Anyway... you called us here?
[Snipe] ...*Sighs* I wonder about us sometimes.
[SOUND]
* Ripple shakes his head
[Ripple] Whats up Snipe?
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] 10*signs it "Spirit the Spirit"*
[Snipe] ...knock that off Andrea and listen up...*glances down a bit disturbed and then leans back in his chair*
* Spirit is asleep.
[Diamondback] [...You were always the one with the bad sense of humor...]
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Hey, only thing keeping me sane in times like this]
[Snipe] Anyway, I've called to reflect over the past month.
[Ripple] [Heh heh.]
[Diamondback] [Understandable.]
[Ripple] NRP: AFK For a minute, getting food.
[Snipe] You ready?  Since we returned from the battle with Talon we've fought demented clowns, managers, Rip's father, Wiendigo clones, a fake Death Star, switched bodies, blown up a planet, and chased after a naked woman.
[Diamondback] And we've loved every minute of it. *laughs both aloud and telepathically*
[Snipe] Does anyone see anything WRONG with this picture?
[Spirit] *yawn* Some of us are still suffering from the latter...
* DeathStar eyes Riple
[Ripple] What?
* Diamondback cracks his knuckles
[Snipe] Yeah, Dias isn't completely sane.
[DeathStar] Oh, nothing...
[Diamondback] {The computer's still feeling the aftereffects of my programming as well... Heh heh heh...}
[Snipe] Anyway, the point is...look at us!  
[Garland] The thing hates me, DB...
[Snipe] What have we become?
[Diamondback] [That isn't my fault... Talk to Ripple about that.]
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [A disembodied spirit? Damn this sucks...]
[DeathStar] ...people who can't solve the internal problems of running a city this size?
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Makes me hard to look at *winks*]
[Diamondback] Face it, we aren't diplomats...
* DeathStar snorts
[DeathStar] That's the least of the problems running around here...
* Snipe slams fist on table
[Snipe] Oh?  So you're saying it's MY fault?
[DeathStar] ...did I?  Or do you think that?
[Garland] No one said anything like that Snipe.
* Diamondback glances upwards, giving his answer silently
* Spirit sighs
[Snipe] ...well, I was chosen from this job, and I'm going to keep going until I drop down dead.  Understood?
[Diamondback] Yeah, sure, ok.
* Garland moves his look to DS
* DeathStar keeps his eyes plastered on the table
[Snipe] Besides, I have a few plans to take action with us.  I believe our problems is different than just me.
* Diamondback stretches and lounges out in his seat
[Diamondback] Continue, John.
[Ripple] Yea continue
* Garland nods his head
[Ripple] NRP: munches on chicken cordon bleu
[Snipe] First off, we need to deal with the last of our problems on the ship, here.  Screw the rest of the universe for the time being.  
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Go... ah, forget it]
[Garland] NRP: I love those things.
[Spirit] Go on
[DeathStar] NRP: *leans over, asleep*
[Diamondback] NRP: *munches on the antennae of his cordless phone*
[Spirit] [There ya go Andrea]
[Ripple] NRP: heh heh
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Thanks ^^¡]
[Garland] NRP: *chews gum*
[GM] NRP: *dances naked*
[Snipe] The underworld of crime on the ship.
[Ripple] [So whats going to happen to YOU if spirit gets her body back Emily?]
[Garland] I believe thats due to lack of MPs.
[Snipe] Lately they've been harassing Grave, since the squirrel, looking like them, pissed her off.  We should ea lwith them.
[DeathStar] I agree with Garland.  The MPs should handle that department.
* Diamondback thinks about Spectre's recent complaints about lack of forces and snickers at the irony
* Ripple nods
[Snipe] I disagree.  We only have enough rifles and guns for thirty MPs and a few of us.  So, the big question is this: why was there a shootout yesterday in the city?
[Spirit] [I don't know...  this is unfamiliar ground with me... Anything from us trying to share this body to me being displaced to... I don't want to think about that one...]
[Ripple] ....
[Ripple] Someones been supplying guns somehow.
[Ripple] Or brought aborad some
[Snipe] I thought that, but Drake keeps tight check.  And no one trades with us anymore.
[Spirit] Could they be making them?
[Ripple] Might be.  But from what?
[Spirit] Or were they hidden on the ship before?
[Snipe] That's my believe.
[Snipe] NRP: belief.
[Snipe] Somehow they're making guns.  But how?
[Garland] That they were here before?
[Garland] Oh.
[Diamondback] {It isn't impossible... Only thing is, how is it slipping through?}
[DeathStar] It's pretty simple, really.
[Garland] We may have taken on a few gunsmiths when we teleported the people onto the fury back then.
[Ripple] Its not like theres a huge supply of plasma gel generators handy for energy weapons..
[Snipe] I agree with Ripple, Death Star.
* Ripple blinks, and stops talking cold
[Garland] They were plasma weapons?
[Snipe] ...that's the rifles these days.
* DeathStar notes Ripple
[Ripple] Wow, never thought Snipe'd agree with me..
* Garland counts on his fingers
[Garland] .....Oh yeah, bullets were 20 years ago.
[Snipe] NRP:....
[Garland] ....even then... a rarity.
[Snipe] NRP: good boy
[Snipe] ....riiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
* Garland looks at DS
[Garland] Maybe I do need more sleep.
[DeathStar] I won't say I told ya so.
[Spirit] Even with only a couple generators, they could make a large enough supply in time...
[Snipe] Anyway, also, I believe we should all wear a uniform now.
[Ripple] heh heh
[Diamondback] Uniforms!? You've got to be kidding!
[Snipe] No.
[Spirit] Uniforms?  Ick!
[Ripple] Been through it once already.
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [I wouldn't mind... Really!]
[Diamondback] I'm not losing the vest, I'm sorry... Even if I have to wear it over the fricking uniform...
[Garland] I still have my old Hunter uniform in my trunk.
[Snipe] We'll cross that bridge later.  *Stands up* I want to discuss more on future plans.  I'm...*shakes head* tired.  I need to rest some.  I want you guys to follow up leads on whatever can find to the underworld...
* DeathStar scans Snipe, frowning.
[Ripple] NRP: perfect time for me to disappear.. one last thing to do before i leave for the night...
* Snipe heads for the door, slouching
[Ripple] Alright, you heard the man.
* Garland stands up and pushes in his chair
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Hey Chris... I couple use to talk to you about this problem of mine... Think you can help?]
* Snipe steps out the door
[Ripple] [Andrea.. I have.. something to ask you.. privatly...]
* DeathStar stands up
[DeathStar] This is bad...very bad.
* Ripple smirks at DB
[Diamondback] *to Andrea* [Eh?]
[Diamondback] [...Don't look at me like that...]
[Garland] NRP: *makes a bubble gum necklace*
[DeathStar] NRP: *eats it*
[Garland] NRP: *doesn't bother telling him he's been chewing it for the past half-hour
* DeathStar sees everyone else is preoccupied so he stands by the viewport to think for a while
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] *To Ripple* [I'm right here...]
* Garland looks at DS
[Spirit] 10*Ripple can actually feel Andrea's prescence*
* Ripple closes his eyes, and forms a body in the astral plane, appearing next to Spirit
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] *To DB* [I'm sorta... disembodied, remember? I don't want to stay this way]
[Garland] ......He says we should wear uniforms..... I guess I'll go grab my old one.
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] *is startled*
[Diamondback] *to Andrea* [And you're suggesting...?]
[DeathStar] He meant all the same one, kid.
[Garland] .... It's a hunter uniform!
[Ripple] *To Andrea* [*holds out a ring, looking exactly like the real one hidden in his room* Will you marry me?]
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] *To DB* [I was hoping you might be able to help me think of a solution...]
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] *is speachless*
* Garland blurs away, 20 seconds later comes back in his CorSec uniform
[Garland] ...*looks at himself*
[Garland] GAH!
[DeathStar] NRP: This is soooo sweet....
[Diamondback] *to Andrea* [It appears you're a little busy... I'll think while I check some leads on the underground of the Fury.]
[Garland] Grabbed the wrong one!
[DeathStar] ...uh huh...
* Diamondback salutes
[Ripple] NRP: Times ticking... 7 minutes to make the 8 block treck to school...
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] I... I...
* Garland blurs away again, a streak of red
[Garland] NRP: BRB
[DeathStar] NRP: He's not Gokou...he's Superman!
[Ripple] NRP: damn good thing i have a truck.
[Diamondback] [I'll be back... If you need me, use the collective.]
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] *smiles* Of course I will... *kisses Ripple*
[Spirit] [Damn, guess that makes me a relay...]
[Diamondback] *to the other enhanced* [Have fun you two. *snickers*]
[SOUND]
* DeathStar has arms crossed, lost in thought.
* Diamondback treks out of the conference room, still laughing, but thinking about Spectre
[Ripple] [*Kisses spirit, and exits the astral plane*]
[Diamondback] NRP: bbl, maybe...
[Ripple] NRP: I wont BBL. Adios.
[DeathStar] NRP: We might still be RPing at 1...see you!
* Ripple smiles, eyes sparkling, and disappears out the door
[Ripple] NRP: Rockin
*** Ripple has quit IRC (Leaving)
*** Diamondback has quit IRC (Leaving)
* DeathStar stands by the viewport
* GM has left
* Snipe has left
* Garland walks in, his face blue from the embarassment of DS and them all seeing he still has his CorSec uniform. Now wearing his classic Hunter uniform.
* DeathStar glances at Garland
[DeathStar] You look good.
* Spirit is still hanging around the meeting room, braiding her hair.
[Garland] Thanks, I'm amazed it still fits.... *brushes a lock of hair out of his eyes*
* Gravedigger slides in sneakily, hoping to catch the meeting
* DeathStar waves at Grave
[DeathStar] You missed it, Grave.
[Gravedigger] ...D'oh!
* DeathStar gazes back out the viewport, shaking his head
[DeathStar] Dammit, this is not good.
* Garland picks back up his mug, erilly serious now that he's in his uniform. The Giant mug reads "Keep on Truckin'"
[Garland] What is it?
[DeathStar] This whole Snipe situation.  I think the lad's hitting his last note.
[Gravedigger] Ah, well, spending my time hunting down factions of that underqorld group was well worth it...friggin' squirrel... 
[Gravedigger] Situation?
[DeathStar] That's just it
* Garland stands next to DS, looking out the viewport too
[DeathStar] Snipe said the underworld somehow has weapons now.
[DeathStar] There should only be enough on board to equip our MPs and us.
[Garland] ..... I was like him once, remember when I was jealous over Darien?
[Garland] It's a phase I'm sure.
[Gravedigger] Offship suppliers?
[DeathStar] There was a killing yesterday.  Snipe thinks it's random.  We're to take the underworld down.  Plus we're getting uniforms and we'll be having more changes.
[DeathStar] No, Drake has that locked tight; plus no shipments in weeks.
[Spirit] How did this underworld get onto the fury anyways?
* DeathStar to garland
[DeathStar] It's deeper than that.
* DeathStar to Spirit
[DeathStar] Beamed onboard with the million.
[Garland] I know what you mean, but I went through a lot of phases, and I'm just thinking... maybe something other than this is troubling him.
[Gravedigger] ...Well thhhhaaatttt's just jim dandy, ain't it?
[Spirit] Hmmm...?  Oh!  Nevermind, I remember reading about that...
[DeathStar] It is.  I scanned Snipe.
[Garland] Hmm?
*** Maestro has quit IRC (Leaving)
[DeathStar] His strength, power, and speed is increasing drastically, but the rest of his body is collapsing.  Rapidly.  Something's wrong with him.  He needs to see X2.
[Spirit] Wha?!  We gotta get him to the doctor asap!
[Garland] NRP: Enough comic gags/incoherent babble from Garland! I SHALL RPG WITH THE OLD FLAME THIS NIGHT!
[Garland] ...... You mean like Hyper does to me?
*** Darmodh_Ghelnav (Avatar@rddfrF199.snowcrest.net) has left #taw
*** Xrileshr (Avatar@rddfrF199.snowcrest.net) has joined #taw
[Gravedigger] NRP: Whoa...Spirit actually cares as to what's going on? =)
[DeathStar] Sorta...Hyper's different, really.  Hyper's a drug.  This is more like a virus.
* DeathStar glances at Spirit
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Whoa, since when did you care so much Emily?]
* Gravedigger flicks dirt off of his cloak. "You'd better be prepared to strap him down and send him, he won't go without a fight."
[Garland] I know first hand what hyper does to a person, DS, I've had the curse to experience it.
* Xrileshr enters the conference room, a little late, and disappointed he was late
* Gravedigger pats Xrile's back
[Garland] If it's working like that, Snipe must be going through hell....
*** Asateliv_Shatal (cidcarnag@bc-van-nws-a53-01-54.look.ca) has joined #TAW
[DeathStar] We can't say for sure.
[Gravedigger] Don't fret it, Scales, I was late too. Hey, if we get detention, maybe we can pass notes back and forth to each other!
[Spirit] Hmph, I'll make him see a doctor if I have to.
[Garland] I wouldn't.
[Xrileshr] Sorry to be late... I had some... delays getting here *mutters something incoherent in Tsivrixsh, though some works seem to relate to the "Fury" and perhaps it's elevator*
[DeathStar] ...we're just worrying.
[Garland] Snipe's an impulsive guy, and if he thinks nothing's wrong with him, there's no way he would anyway.
*** Darmodh_Ghelnav (Avatar@rddfrF199.snowcrest.net) has joined #taw
*** Xrileshr has quit IRC (Leaving)
*** Darmodh_Ghelnav is now known as Xrileshr
* Xrileshr glances at Gravedigger, but nods
[Spirit] I'll drag him there myself if I have to.
[DeathStar]  Snipe comes second.  We need to help Spirit out first.
[Garland] If DS is right, you'll have a hell of a time doing that.
* Gravedigger raises an eyebrow and looks to Spirit
* Xrileshr tries to figure out what's happening
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Thanks for the concern DeathStar ^.^]
[DeathStar] Listen, Andrea, we have to get you back into you and her into ... her?
[Spirit] *under her breath* Geez Andrea... atleast you don't have to worry about people staring at you because of this...
[Gravedigger] Ex-squeeze me? Laundry shute? What the hell did I miss at this meeting? Snipe's crashing, Spirit's...?
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Not so easy... Where's Emily to go...?]
[Spirit] [Yeah!  Where am I supposed to go?]
[DeathStar] ...*sighs* Into a robot?  Diamondback did it.
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Tried that...]
[Gravedigger] ...There's always Eve...
[Spirit] [I'm linked to the Kitsunebi... which is now linked to Andrea's body... -.-]
[Garland] Well.... There's my opinion, and then there's the morally correct, places you could go.
* DeathStar glances at Grave
[DeathStar] What about Eve?  Take over HER body?
[Gravedigger] Dark joke, nevermind. 
*** DeathStar sets mode: +o Xrileshr
* Xrileshr glances inquisitvely at Gravedigger
* Spirit looks confused
* DeathStar turns to Xrileshr
[DeathStar] Naked, horny woman.  Long story.
[Spirit] Eek...
[Gravedigger] You sure wouldn't be dateless on a Saturday night.
[Spirit] Bleh!
[DeathStar] True.  But then on Sunday you'd take over the ship.
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [*laughs*]
[Garland] Well.... Emily technically is dead, right?
[Xrileshr] Oh... I avoided that mission file after the first few paragraphs...
[Gravedigger] What? Dig up her decomposed body and put her back using voodoo rituals?
[Garland] No.
* Spirit shudders.
[DeathStar] ...*has no comment*
[Garland] This is my opinion, as a priest, but, I feel it'd be best to go on to the afterlife. My opinion purely, but... and theres the other idea I had.
[Gravedigger] ...WHAT? Stop staring at me!
[Gravedigger] I KNOW you were all thinking it too, don't deny it!
[Garland] .....I wasn't.
[Spirit] Nice thought, but I don't think I could if I wanted to...
* Xrileshr taps his long fingers across the table, listening
[Gravedigger] Gaaarrrr, stop the lies, lies aren't good....
[Xrileshr] That opinion is incorrect is referance to me, but...
[Spirit] *flicks her wrist, a sword appearing in her hand*  I still bound to this thing...
[DeathStar] ...*hums*
[Gravedigger] ...You're bound to a sword?
[Xrileshr] NRP: DS is the highest ranking guys here right?
* Xrileshr turns to Death Star
[Garland] The other idea, which I don't support much, since I don't care for the archane arts, is to find someone willing to take her on.
[DeathStar] NRP: ... uh, Grave might be higher.
[Gravedigger] ...Wasn't Spirit higher than me?
[Garland] NRP: *is a lowly ensign*
[Gravedigger] NRP: Ooops, NRP!
[DeathStar] ...*glances at Grave* What?
* Gravedigger blinks
[Gravedigger] What?
[DeathStar] ...exactly.
[Gravedigger] Nyah.
[Gravedigger] NRP: Isn't Spirit a higher rank than me?
[Xrileshr] So...
[DeathStar] Alright, alright people
[Spirit] Well... That one could actually work Garland... but...  who would willing give up their body?
[Gravedigger] Hey Gar, look! Over there! *points behind Gar*
[DeathStar] ....that's a good question, Spirit.
* Garland looks
[Garland] What?
[Gravedigger] *flips him off when he's not looking* Aw, it's gone.
* Spirit giggles
[DeathStar] ...*rolls eyes*
[Garland] As unethical as it is... someone suicidal? Someone with split-personalities?
[DeathStar] Wait, wait, wait, what you guys are talking about is impossible.
[Gravedigger] Hey, I'll gladly give up my bod! Anything to get a better roomate than...*groans* Dias...
* Spirit shudders
* Xrileshr leans against the wall
[Spirit] Life or death, I'm staying away from dumbass
[DeathStar] Where is dumbass, anyway?
[Garland] I thought this sort of thing was impossible for a long time, and here it is happening, DS. May as well ponder what roads we could take if they arise later.
[Xrileshr] What exactly, may I ask, is the problematic situation here?
[Gravedigger] Probablly off doing dumbass things.
[DeathStar] Dead girl in live girl's body; life girl out of body.
[DeathStar] NRP: er, you get the point.
[Garland] Interesting analogy, DS]
[Spirit] C'est la vie... 
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Very funny Emily...]
[Xrileshr] Where is the "live" girl then?
[DeathStar] Just spoke.
[Xrileshr] NRP: From Spirit's body or out of thin air?
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] 10*taps Xrileshr on the shoulder using telekenesis* [Boo]
[DeathStar] NRP: ...think air?
[Spirit] NRP: Telepathy
[SOUND]
[Xrileshr] Hmm... that would be a bit of a problem
[Garland] Okay.... first things first, we find out how to get Adrea back into her body. After figuring this, we need to find out what to do with Emily.
[Spirit] NRP: Gah!  Forgot to kill the green...
[DeathStar] So, what, we go look for a body on the ship that's on the brink of death?
* Gravedigger grabs a chair and sits on its back
[Gravedigger] ....The Mayor!
[Xrileshr] And then what?
[Gravedigger] Err, Manager!
[Spirit] No!
[Xrileshr] What would we do with that dead body?
[DeathStar] ...*sighs at the manager* One of the many loons.
[Gravedigger] ...The squirrel?
[Spirit] A squirrel?!?!
[Garland] I doubt she'd want to be a squirrel.... you hated it.
[DeathStar] ...he's in the dentention block.
[Gravedigger] Yeah, but I'm screws loose, remember?
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Well, I wouldn't mind having Emily stay with me as long as she needs to, as long as she splits the rent *winks*]
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [I just want my body back...]
[DeathStar] That could be a very long time.
[Spirit] Who's being funny now? =P
* Garland ponders
* Snipe walks in
[Snipe] You guys are STILL here?
* Gravedigger puts his arms around Spirit and Xrile and smiles fakely
[Spirit] o.O?
[Gravedigger] Yes sir! Been here all ALONG.
[Snipe] ...you were late...
[Gravedigger] Isn't that right? Right? Ri-Oh c'mon!
[Spirit] ^^¡¡
[Xrileshr] You appear to have been late
[Garland] We'd best think about this while we go on down to the 'underworld'
* Gravedigger shoots a light glare at Xrile
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [Anyone happen to know how to reunite a lost soul with her body anyways?]
[Gravedigger] Turncoat! 
[Snipe] What I thught....
[Gravedigger] ...Dig up one's body and use voodoo rituals?
[Xrileshr] *mutters* N'shrote lso lsaevr, xvare lso shax...
* Garland raises his backhand to Grave
* Snipe walks over
[Garland] Thats not even funny.
[Snipe] What are we talking about?
[Xrileshr] If I entirely knew, I would tell you
[Spirit] The ghost haunting the fury.
[Gravedigger] Hey Gar, look! Over there! *points behind him*
[Snipe] Andrea?
* Garland glares at GD
[Spirit] Yep, that's the name of the ghost.  How did you know?
[Garland] ....what is it, first?
[Xrileshr] Apparently she wants to be returned to her body, but it is dead and they are trying to find out what to do? SOmething of that sort, from what I can make out
[Snipe] ...
[Gravedigger] ...Why, if I knew, would I be asking you?
[Snipe] Can't thinks be dealt with later?
[Xrileshr] We should deal with the most important priorities first.
[Snipe] (This)
[Garland] It's obviously not important, no one else it looking.
* Gravedigger grabs Xrile's head and forceably turns it
[Gravedigger] Scales is, ain'tcha Scales?
* Xrileshr grabs GD's head and moves it away, turning around and faces him
* Garland looks as he forces Zresh
[Xrileshr] What is it...?
[Garland] NRP:..... tyyyyypo
[Spirit] Oh yes, what else do we have to worry about... Oh yeah!  You're late for your physical Snipe, you have to go talk to X2 ASAP!
*** Asateliv_Shatal (cidcarnag@bc-van-nws-a53-01-54.look.ca) has left #TAW
[Snipe] Say WHAT?
* Garland looks back
[Gravedigger] It's...it's...why, it's...a surprise.
[Snipe] Grave, cut it out.
* Gravedigger mutters to himself
[Xrileshr] You all realize, you've been less than successful with action against the Tsivrixsh Empire... presumbly, your enemy
[Garland] Well, we have orders... we should go on doen there.....
[DeathStar] ...this crew is so screwed up...
[Spirit] You're late for your physical, you have to see X2 about it right away Snipe.
[Xrileshr] I share your assessment, Death Star
[Garland] NRP: Justin has infected me..... KILL ME BEFORE IT SPREADS!
[DeathStar] NRP: *Grabs the scaple*
[Gravedigger] NRP: *cocks his gun and takes aim*
[Snipe] ...I'm not late for my physical...
[Gravedigger] You could be EARLY for your next one then.
[SOUND]
[Xrileshr] Efficiency would presume Snipe would have been notified in advance of such a matter.
[Snipe] Right, Xril
* Snipe does a swipe motion in the air
[Snipe] We have to worr---*loses balance*
[Spirit] Geez, is your memory failing... your balance certainly has...
* Garland looks at Snipe
[Xrileshr] And are you certain you won't...? Are you all right?
[Garland] Are you okay?
[Xrileshr] won't=weren't
[Snipe] ...I know what this is about...you're worried about my condention...
[Snipe] ....*leans against the conference table* Right?
* Garland undoes the sword strap around his waist and puts it over his shoulder
[Xrileshr] Condition?
[Garland] ..... Before he gets mad at us any more than he already is..... I think we have a job to do.
[Spirit] *sigh* Please go see X2... Please?
[Snipe] ...fine.  I'll go to X2.  Let him take some blood.
[Snipe] He can run whatever test pleases you.
* Snipe walks away and stops at the door
[Xrileshr] What exactly am I needed for...? I was called to this conference, but I'm unsure as to whyt
[Snipe] Now find me some leads to the crime center on this ship.  Don't go down there without me.    As for you, Garland, shove it.  I'm not going to get mad for you worrying about me.
[Spirit] Thanks...
* Snipe walks off.
[Snipe] .oO (No problem...)
[Gravedigger] ...Hey, if Snipe dies, can we use his body?
* Garland narrows his eyes to snipe as he walks off.
[DeathStar] ...*shakes head* Alright, should we tackle Andrea first, Grave's demented problem with bodies, or look for that lead Snipe wants?
[Spirit] Er... how about not?
[Gravedigger] Well, he certainly wouldn't need it...
[Xrileshr] The highest-ranking officer should decide that, by taking into account the executive officers suggestions
[Spirit] I wouldn't want... well, anyways, how is a dead body going to help me?
[DeathStar] I try to for a group vote, Xril.
* Garland has a feeling they're not going anywhere for a while, so he sits down.
[DeathStar] NRP: try to go.
[Spirit] [[6Andrea]] [She has a point there...]
[Gravedigger] ...Ever read "Frankenstein"?
* Spirit shudders and telekenetically thwaps Grave upside the head
[Garland] NRP: Lost all dramatics that would have been with that by NRPing it....
[Xrileshr] I see... Could you briefly explain the problems with Gravedigger and Snipe?
* Garland gets up and heads for the door
[DeathStar] ...*walks off*
[DeathStar] This is ridiculous
[Garland] Your telling me.
[Gravedigger] ...I DON'T have a problem!
* Garland heads for the elevator.
* DeathStar stops Gar
[Xrileshr] NRP: Xrileshr would have been reading the logs, but unfortunetly I couldn't
* Garland looks at DS
[Garland] Yes?
[DeathStar] To the bridge.  Lets follow up on the lead Snipe wanted.
[DeathStar] Lets do our jobs.
[Xrileshr] Understood
[Garland] Was where I was headed. *smirks*
[Xrileshr] What exactly is our job in this though?
[DeathStar] Heh
[Gravedigger] Just because I've been developing a macarbe facination with the dead....
* DeathStar goes onto the elevator
* DeathStar waves Xril after them.
* Xrileshr follows
[Spirit] Well, technically I don't have a job with you guys...  I'm just here so Andrea can do hers.
* Spirit follows along anyways
* Garland steps on, pulling at a loose thread in his uniform
[DeathStar] Well, basically, the underworld crime lords have weapons now.  But there's no way they could have gotten them since we're limited in supply and only MPs have them.
* Gravedigger sighs and follows along, hanging his head
[DeathStar] They killed someone yesterday.
* DeathStar steps on after him
[Gravedigger] ...Could we use that body?
[Xrileshr] And what are we going to do about them?
[Garland] That much we both know.
[Spirit] Grave, shut up!
[Xrileshr] Perhaps contact with sources outside of the ship? I'm not entirely sure how possible that is, though
[Gravedigger] Jeeze, talk about being ungrateful! Here I am, trying to help you find a body to inhabit...
[DeathStar] ...things are difficult to explain.  Snipe has the ship in a state of shutdown.
[Garland] Question I have is, just how advanced of weaponry do they have? That could help tell us if they smuggled it or made it themselves.
[Xrileshr] Why? That seems rather odd
[Spirit] I don't want to be a corpse!
[DeathStar] Good question.  Ask Snipe.
[Xrileshr] I will make a point to do so...
[Gravedigger] You wouldn't! Think of it as "reanimated expired-life"
[Xrileshr] At any rate, what are we doing to do at this moment? You mentioned a bridge?
[Garland] I'll do that. Oh, elevator, Bridge.
[DeathStar] Elevator: Pip pip cheerios.
[SOUND]
* Garland glares
[Gravedigger] It's recycling.
[DeathStar] ...things need to change around here.
[Xrileshr] I would suggest in the future, you attempt to create something of an efficient command structure here and policies...
[DeathStar] Noted.
[Garland] No kidding.... This is turning into a circus. And I've been no help.
[Xrileshr] I won't argue with you on that.
* DeathStar sighs
[DeathStar] They're young.  
[Gravedigger] And brash.
[Garland] So am I. I'm about their ages now, remember?
[DeathStar] Yes, your generation is brash.
[Xrileshr] Inexperience can be countered by training
[Gravedigger] And cocky.
[DeathStar] Worse than mine by far.
[Gravedigger] And delishly good-looking.
[DeathStar] We'll stop right there for now.
* DeathStar steps out onto the bridge.
[SOUND]
[Garland] I'm not even sure what generation I'm counted as, same age as the new guys, been fighting as long as Jared.
[Spirit] [Look, say we found a body, do we have any way to get Andrea back in hers?]
[Xrileshr] !Death STar deathstar-canitbetrue.mid
* Garland steps out
* Gravedigger opens his mouth to give his input
* Xrileshr steps out, following them
[GM] Drake: Hmmmm?
* DeathStar puts his hand on Grave's mouth
[DeathStar] Hold that thought.
* Garland greets Drake
* Xrileshr nods to Drake (NRP: who I believe is still in charge around here?)
[Gravedigger] Nrrrmmm...
[GM] Hi Garland.
[GM] NRP: Only the ship itself.
* Garland smiles to Drake, adjusting his collar
* DeathStar seats himself at the computer
[DeathStar] Alright, lets use our brains.  *motions toward spirit and them* You work on Andrea's problem.
[Xrileshr] NRP: Do I have a station or anywhere I should go by regulations here?
[DeathStar] NRP: Just stand there and look cool.
* Spirit nods
[Spirit] Let's brainstorm guys
* Xrileshr glances over some of the stations and the bridge
* DeathStar begins to type away, information on the dead person coming up
[DeathStar] Garland, I could use your help
[Garland] Sure thing.
[Gravedigger] ...That's easier said then done.
[Xrileshr] We're not the only officers here. Perhaps others on the ship could be assigned to some of these task.
[GM] Drake: *Waddles over* So, Andrea, what's up?
[Xrileshr] (tasks)
* Garland takes the console next to DS
[GM] Drake: Eh, the Hunters are the most experienced, Xrileshr
[Spirit] Er, I'm not Andrea for starters...
* Garland types, runnng over the files
[DeathStar] Now, this guy's your average joe...
[GM] Drake: .....riiiiiiiight.
[Spirit] She's... *looks around* Where did she go...
* Garland looks
[Garland] Yep.
[Xrileshr] True... Unfortunetly for you, that's true... Depends on the difficulty of the tasks, though
[DeathStar] Why kill your average joe when it'll announce you have weapons, that you obviously don't want known or you'll have everyone officer on the ship down on your necks...
[Xrileshr] I wonder how long Snipe's blood test will take. He should be joining us here soon, when he finishes
[GM] Drake: *sighs* Snipe.  The General's been lacking these days what he use to have when I first met him.
[Garland] Thats true, unless they aren't very smart, or they actually want us to know.
[DeathStar] Possiblity.
[Spirit] Look, any ideas on how to get Andrea where she belongs?  We can worry about me later...
[DeathStar] Or he had connections to them.
[Xrileshr] I'm not certain about "what he used to have," but I would agree with you from what I've seen
[Gravedigger] What if we have a seance or somethin'?
[Garland] What was the man's occupation?
[GM] Drake: ... well, we could try the pulse waves from the engine core during hyperspace...nah, that'll melt you.
[Spirit] ...
[DeathStar] Store clerk.  Low level job, yet he had nice things...*eyes narrow* Too nice.  I wonder how Snipe overlooked this.
[SOUND]
[GM] Drake: I would say, you'd have to go to the spirit realm and transfer bodies.
[Garland] Obviously, Last I checked store clerks don't make a whole lot.
[GM] Drake: Per say, psionics.
[DeathStar] And the money and supplies on the ship are too hard to come by.  There's not enough for 1/10 of the people.  So, how did he manage THAT?  Unless they supplied him.
[Xrileshr] They refering to your underworld?
[DeathStar] Correct, Xril.
[Garland] He may have been a subordinate?
[Xrileshr] But why would they supply this store clerk?
[DeathStar] Yeah, a lackee or something.  He must have done something to piss them off.
[DeathStar] He worked for them, no doubt.
[Spirit] Blodoy kitsunebi is more trouble than it's worth...
[Xrileshr] Yes, but for what purpose, I wonder
[DeathStar] ...*points at the known family* He has a wife and two kids.
[Garland] Maybe he tried to quit, I read a book once about a "mob" or something.
[Gravedigger] ...Okay, what if we clone a new body?
[DeathStar] Statements by the MP said they didn't know anything.  Buuut, perhaps if we talk to them...
[Xrileshr] You should be concerned about how much sway the underworld holds over your ship. An issurection is not out of the question, and I'm not entirely certain you could stop a well-planned one
[Garland] What are the chances they'll have a different story for us?
[DeathStar] That's right, Xril. That's why Snipe's so worried.  The recent events of left the Hunters and the Fury in shambles.  We are not our peaks mentally or physically.
[DeathStar] Little.  But we're smarter than some MPs.  We can ask the right question.  *Thumbs at Grave* With Mr. Detective there.
[Xrileshr] Do you have any way to make an educated guess as to how many people would side with this mob or are working with it?
[Garland] ....I just hope he doesn't ask where they keep the people they kill.....
[DeathStar] Hard to say.  What are the chances we teleported more than a few hundred mobsters in the mad gabble to get them.
* Gravedigger swings around and jumps up
[Spirit] I need way to stop the Kitsunebi from keeping her from returning... *trails off*
[Gravedigger] I'm sure as hell not morphing into no freaking animal again!
[Xrileshr] You realize that you are almost like caged animals. You are trapped here in this ship, with no real place to go. Even though it would worsen the situation most likely if inexperienced people took over this ship, they would likely want control. Perhaps to take the ship to a world they wished. To side with the Tsivrixsh. Whatever the case, your situation is dangerous
[GM] Drake: ...go on, spirit.
[Xrileshr] True, but perhaps the mob has persuaded civilians to join with them.
[DeathStar] Too dangerous.  No one knows it but you, I, and Garland, but they are tottering on the edge.  I give them a month max before everything collapses.
[Gravedigger] I say we lock onto 'em with the teleporters and transport their asses right into deep space!
[Xrileshr] Interesting idea, but do you even know who "they" are?
[GM] Drake: Didn't Grave use to be a smart one here?
[Gravedigger] ...*sits back down*
[Garland] When it comes to that, I'm seeing this is actually a communist state....
[DeathStar] NRP: Hmm..Reboot Part 1: Boiling Point is going off nicely
[Gravedigger] Damn know-it-all aliens...
[Spirit] What?  Oh!  The kitsunebi is more than just a sword, it has great psi-capibilities for a weapon...  One of the traits it has is it protects the user from mind control... which is why Andrea isn't in her own body already...
[GM] Drake: ... blow the sword up?
[Gravedigger] NRP: BRB, I need a better connection
*** Gravedigger has quit IRC (Leaving)
[Spirit] No!
[GM] Drake: Bad idea..bad idea.
[Garland] Did they preform an autopsy on the man?
* DeathStar types on the computer and brings up the locaiton of the store
* Spirit holds the sword close as to protect it.
[DeathStar] Yeah, he was shot.  Nothing else was found.  Oh - he was naked too.  Not raped at least.
[DeathStar] Then I would suspect Eve.
[Xrileshr] How thoroughly did you search and anazyle the location he was found dead and his store?
[DeathStar] I didn't.  The MPs did.  That's the problem.  I just learned of this.
[Xrileshr] And they found nothing?
*** Gravedigger (wiendigo@rc-210.netonecom.net) has joined #taw
[Xrileshr] Nothing suspicious, of course
[DeathStar] Nothing.  Just he was shot.  Witnesses say it was the underworld due to their style.  Ancient mobster way.  You would think we're going back to primitive 20th century.
[Xrileshr] Nothing unsual was turned up in its store?
[GM] Drake: Maybe take the sword elsewhere?
[Xrileshr] its=his
[Garland] Hmm.... just shot? No blast residue or anything? Usually plasma leaves burn patterns, or so I think. I'd like to knnow what we're up against.
[DeathStar] Ransacked.
[Gravedigger] Early 20th Century. 1920's era.
[Xrileshr] Is there anything significant about his store's location?
[DeathStar] ...*Types and the picture of the body pops up*  There ya go.  *Burn marks are present*
[Xrileshr] And isn't this ship capable of scanning for weaponry on board...?
* Garland glances at DS
[DeathStar] ...*smiles at Xrileshr* You remind me of a person I know.  Yes, there was.  The center of town, near the access lift to the lower levels of the ship.
[Garland] You know I don't know a plasma blast from a bullet wound.
[DeathStar] It is, too a degree.  The ship was never finished.  
[Xrileshr] Sounds like a good jumping point.
* DeathStar is obviously impressed Xrileshr is running to speed wiht him.
[DeathStar] You're right.  But I think that should be our second location.  The family first.  We don't want them dead before we can finish our mission at the store.
[GM] Drake: Well, spirit?
[Xrileshr] Depending on how close it was, it would have allowed these mob members to move out of the lower areas and into the main Fury area
[Spirit] Hmmm?
[DeathStar] Not too far away.
[Xrileshr] True. The family may be able to provide useful information
[GM] Drake: IF we move the sword away.
* DeathStar stands up
[Xrileshr] As I suspected then.
[Xrileshr] Let's get going. We may have little time
[DeathStar] We'll take our detective, but me and you will ask the most queestions
[Spirit] That's not really how it works...  The sword becomes bonded to it's user...
[GM] Drake: I'll...stay here as usual.  Good luck.  Nice to see some creative work being done for once.
[Garland] Too the words from my mouth there, Xrileshr
* /sound: no such file 'tgc-evilcometh.mid'
[SOUND]
* DeathStar closes the file on the man and heads for the elevator
* Xrileshr has been impressed the most with DS from the Hunters probably, since his styles are the closest to Tsivrixsh military styles, though still a ways away (and no, the others don't really come close to it)
[DeathStar] Come on Grave.   Spirit too, unless you want to stick around here wiht Drake
* Xrileshr follows Death Star
[Spirit] No, I'll come...
* DeathStar grabs a rifle from the shelf and throws it to Xrileshr and Grave.
* Garland walks next to DS
* Spirit follows along.
[DeathStar] Take these.  I have an idea I want to test.
*** Kiki` (kiki@209.32.248.60) has joined #taw
[Xrileshr] I do recall something in the files about Gravedigger being a part time detective. *catches the rifle* But, anyway, let's see what we can find
[DeathStar] NRP: Hey, session 1 is still going on.
[Kiki`] (I'm leavin soon.)
[Kiki`] NRP: DOH!!! Damned BSI
* DeathStar steps onto the elevator
* Xrileshr enters and looks the rifle over a bit
* Garland steps on
[Xrileshr] What exactly is this idea of yours?
[DeathStar] Alright, elevator, level 17 once the others get on
* Spirit steps on, practically lost in thought.
[DeathStar] There's some burn marks along the inside of the store, where it was ransacked.  Could be by rifle.
[DeathStar] I'm going to recreate the scene and find out.  If so, the data might be saveable.  If it was fire, it won't.
[Xrileshr] And you wish to see how similar the burn marks these rifles would produce compared to the ones the mob produced?
[Xrileshr] As I thought.
[Garland] ...... I feel out of my league....
[DeathStar] ...*Grins* You're league will come up sooner or later, kid.

[Garland] *says it like it's from a song* Till the day...
[DeathStar] Yeah, well, small steps.
[Xrileshr] I recommend that we be alert. I doubt these mob members will take a liking to our investigation. They may give us some latitude, depending on how well they cleaned up after themselves, but they may be bold enough to strike against us
* Spirit plays [onmyown.mid] - 9k - [i²]
[DeathStar] That's not the only problem...Spirit and Snipe too.  I think we're in for a long ride
[Garland] Nothing worse than we've faced before, I'm sure.
[DeathStar] ...not so sure.  I think, for sure, something will die today.
* Spirit shudders
* DeathStar steps off the elevator
[DeathStar] But I don't mean us; I mean a symbol.
[DeathStar] Today, I think we'll change...forever.
* Xrileshr steps out of the elevator, checking out the area
[Garland] .... One of thee days I'll understand your empathy....
* DeathStar walks along the busy streets, people walking around
[Garland] ...but not this say, obviously.
* Xrileshr follows, rifle ready and xvash at his side
[DeathStar] Follow me.
* DeathStar blurs and appears 20 feet away
* Xrileshr nods
* Garland walks calmly next to DS, a little chaffed by the uniform
* Spirit follows along
* Xrileshr increases his speed to follow DS
* Garland shrugs and blurs
* DeathStar looks around and blurs again, appearing near a house
* Xrileshr quickly moves to arrive at the house
* Garland blurs, skidding to a halt next to DS
* DeathStar looks around the house
[DeathStar] Here we are.
* DeathStar knocks on the door
* Xrileshr surveys the area and the house
[DeathStar] Woman: Go away!
[Kiki`] NRP: See ya all later
* Garland puts on black shades he forgot were in his pockets
[Xrileshr] You are ordered to open your door, by the Hunters.
[Garland] Let's keep it cool, don't seem menacing to her....
[Xrileshr] A quick response would be preferable.
[Kiki`] NRP: *walks out dragging a rope connected to cheese*
[DeathStar] Woman:... give me a few minutes.
*** Kiki` has quit IRC (Leaving)
[DeathStar] ...Garland, go 'round back.
[Xrileshr] You should have nothing to hide from us. Don't think the door itself is stopping us

* DeathStar scans the outer building
[Spirit] Geez...
[DeathStar] Xril, side, keep talking
* Xrileshr glances at DS to see what course of action he'll take
* Xrileshr nods
[DeathStar] Woman: I'm naked!  Give me damned moment
* DeathStar glances at Spirit
[DeathStar] You, other side.

[Xrileshr] All right, but dress quickly
[DeathStar] Comm: The boys are 18 and 17.  Watch out for them.
* Spirit nods and takes up posistion
* Garland cracks his nuckles
* Xrileshr takes his own position, continuing to talk
[DeathStar] Comm: This house is pretty sturdy, like one back home; money goes far here I suppose.  Didn't know we had that much currancy.  Don't think we can push this shack over.
[Garland] Comm: Will do.

[Xrileshr] And just what are you doing?
[DeathStar] Boy: *runs past Xril*

[DeathStar] Comm: Okay, bring them up front...
[Xrileshr] When I ask you a question, I expect it to be promptly answered
[Xrileshr] Comm: Acknowledged. *moves to the front*
[GM] Boy 2: I only did what momma told me too!
* Spirit heads back around front, the woman bobbing along in the air behind her
[Xrileshr] Then, tell me what she told you to do...
* Garland glently but firmly pushes the boy up front with DS
[DeathStar] Good job guys.
* Xrileshr drops the boy by Death Star
* DeathStar sighs, an old feel coming back from being in command again

[Garland] Ma'am, we'd just like to talk to you.

[Xrileshr] Unfortunetly, the circumstances require us to speak with you. You are making this exceedingly difficult on yourself
[GM] Woman: Go to hell!  I'm in mourning.

[GM] Boy: What the hell is this?  Good cop, bad cop?
* Xrileshr turns to DS to see what he wants to do now
* DeathStar raises his hand out to keep Gar and Xril on hold for a moment.
* Spirit smiles innocently at the woman. "You want to answer our questions for us please?"
* Garland hushes
* Xrileshr nods to DS, keeping a close eye on the kids and the woman
[DeathStar] Listen here, Sharon Plums, is it?  Your husband just died.  I find it strange you'd be running from the authorties unless you have something to hide.  *keeps arms crossed and walks up to her, bobbing* You're hiding something.  We have machines to find this out.  Painful, too.  We don't want to hurt you, Sharon.  We want justice.  I want to know about your husband's activities.
[GM] Sharon: I told the damned Military Police, bastard.
* Garland shakes his head.....

[Spirit] *To DS* [Can I dangle her upside down?  Please...?]
[Garland] Xril, loosen up a little, will ya?
[DeathStar] Yes, you told the gulliable Military Police what they wanted to hear, yes.  I agree. But you haven't told US what we wanted to hear.  Now, *Waves hand at Xril* As you can tell, he's not your average nice joe like him  *waves hand at Garland*  And he *Waves hand at Xril* will be doing your interrogation.  Understood?
[DeathStar] [Hold off on that for a sec]
[GM] Sharon: *pales at the thought*
[Xrileshr] *glances at Garland* I would, but this is duty and we do want to complete it in a quick fashion.
[Spirit] *to DS* [Roger]
[DeathStar] Now, would you care to be more helpful?
* Garland moves so the light reflects off his glasses into her face, looking more scary
[GM] Sharon: Uh..yeah...sure, whatever you say, officer...
[DeathStar] [Drop her.  Hard]
* Garland looks at Xril, expecing him to do it
[DeathStar] NRP: That was to spirit
[Garland] NRP: Now you tell us, eh?
[Xrileshr] NRP: Phew, thought I had missed something there
[SOUND]
[DeathStar] NRP: oops.
* Spirit does so
[GM] Sharon: EEEK!  *rubs her butt* Whadda want to know?
[DeathStar] Alright, your husband...he went to work alot, right?
[GM] Sharon: No shit.
[DeathStar] Now, I won't be stupid enough to ask if you know what he did at work.  I want to know, how often did he go to work?
[GM] Sharon: ... every day for a few hours.  Some days he would be gone all day there.  I would call there, but, no phones on this godforsaken ship...
[DeathStar] So, he definately spent a good amount of time there.
[GM] Sharon: I jus' said that, didn't I?
* Xrileshr glances at Sharon as if he'd almost rather do the interrigation, but keeps an eye on the kids instant and listens intently
* DeathStar steps back and leans toward Xrileshr
* Garland cracks his knuckles loudly
[DeathStar] Okay, that proves that the man went there more to work.  People say the store was hardly open for business.  
[DeathStar] Whatever dealings went on, they took place there, or he went to where the crimelords are for hours at a time.  Doesn't take a rocket scientist to see this.
* Xrileshr wonders what the makes the MPs for a moment
[Xrileshr] the=that
[GM] Sharon: Canz I go now?
[Garland] NRP: BRB
[DeathStar] Unless my friends...*grins*...has any questions.
[Xrileshr] *glances at DS, then at the woman* I wonder if you'd mind elightening us with your own opinion on how possible his *refering to DS* theory is.
[GM] Sharon: .... my husband was a good man, a good man.  He did what he had to.  I don't believe it forz a moment.
[Spirit] Excuse me ma'am, but would you mind informing us of why you tied to bolt when we showed up?
[Xrileshr] You say he did what he had to? People sometimes "have to" do things they perhaps wouldn't do in better circumstances. I wonder if these are circumstances similar like those?
[GM] Sharon: ...I getz threatening notes that says my boys will diez if I talkz to youz peoplez.
[GM] Sharon: Listen...I justz wantz to be left alone...I know nothing.
[Garland] ......Did your husband work a lot just before he died?
[GM] Sharon: Yez.  He waz scared about zomething.  I figured he pissed someonez off.
[Xrileshr] You would perhaps be safer in our custidy then. If you were... shall we say, cooperative, we might be motived to protect you as a high priority
[GM] Sharon: Misterz, I toldz ya allz I knowz.
[GM] Boy: Mooom, I'm hungry.
[Garland] I believe we have all she can say.
[Xrileshr] Oh, then you just felt like mentioning you were threatened before that? And if your new evasion doesn't work, what next?
[GM] Sharon: ... *sobs*
[Garland] Xrileshr.... Your pushing her too far.
* Garland looks at him and DS
[Xrileshr] No, if anything, she's pushing me to far. A soldier cannot always be a humanitarian...
[Garland] Let's go.
[Xrileshr] *glances at Death Star* I recommend she and her children be held in custody... if only for their protection. And if a competent officer can be found to speak with her...
[Xrileshr] Our time can be better spent in other tasks now
[DeathStar] I'll send down Diamondback.  He has nothing else to do.
[Garland] No one sait that, but there is a time to fight, and a time to flee, now, let's go.
* DeathStar enters a few codes into a comm
* DeathStar snaps fingers at three MPs.
[GM] MPs: *run over from gate*
[Xrileshr] Hmm, according to the log, I believe he's scheduled to be sleeping at the moment... Well, not anymore now, I suppose
[DeathStar] You watch her until Diamondback comes down here.  He'll take them from there.  Understood?
* DeathStar moves away
[DeathStar] To the store.
[DeathStar] NRP: *Is really playing the detective angle more than he meant*
[SOUND]
* Xrileshr moves away and follows DS, ignoring DB's angry mutterings on the comm
[Garland] NRP: Thats noted. 
[DeathStar] NRP: I'm that strained?  It sucks?!  NOOOO!
[Garland] NRP: Just hurry it up a little.
[Spirit] Fun fun fun... *heads to the store*
[Xrileshr] *to DS when they are out of range* Well, if anything, the woman helped to confirme our suspicions. But, I expected such
[DeathStar] NRP: Just 2 more hours...eeeks
[DeathStar] Same here.  Of course she knows more, but in the long run that doesn't matter.
[Xrileshr] NRP: Family's gonna kill me for missing out on the family movie tonight, but...
* Garland glares at Xril
[Garland] NRP: Bah! I always miss the movies!
[Xrileshr] It'd take too long to get it out of here anyway
* DeathStar steps in front of the store
* Xrileshr ignores Garland's glance
[Xrileshr] glance=glare
* DeathStar walks up to the locked door that's filled with MP locks and raises blaster
* Xrileshr surveys the area
[Xrileshr] Time to test your theory?
[DeathStar] IT'll take too long to get people over here.
[DeathStar] Hold on...
[Garland] I guess you consider a being courtious as a humanitarian trait.
* DeathStar charges blaster and fires, blowing the locks away and leaving the door intact.
* DeathStar opens the door, waving hand in
[DeathStar] After you three.
[Xrileshr] Not entirely, but a soldier should not return more courtecy than needed if he is not given it back. Remember who is to be looked up to
* Xrileshr nods and moves in, warily looking around, ready for any trouble
[Garland] A soldier protects, not demands respect.
[DeathStar] NRP: *Watches the bomb go off, killing them all*
* Spirit quietly slips inside
[Xrileshr] Someone perhaps should scan the area?
[DeathStar] I did.
* Garland steps in
* DeathStar follows in
[Xrileshr] A soldier also watches and acts to stop danger if needed. A soldier who's merely reactive is not an efficient one
[SOUND]
[Xrileshr] Good
* DeathStar points to the back of the store of clothes at a door leading to the back
[DeathStar] That should be it.
[Garland] How is being rude to a mourning woman stopping danger?
[Xrileshr] Right
[Xrileshr] You really don't understand? She likely knew much more about her husband's doings than she said and this matter might concern the safety of the ship... At any rate, this discussion is for another time
* Xrileshr looks the back over
* DeathStar looks over the burnt desk, files, and papers, all unreadable.
[Garland] We had enough information anyway, you shouldn't have pushed.
[Xrileshr] I don't claim to be the most skilled person in reading English papers, but these are decidedly illegible...
[DeathStar] Look, you two - you both have a right view on this, but they're both wrong without the other.  You two need to learn from each other if you want to find the right path to this.
* DeathStar motions at Spirit
*** Kiki` (kiki@209.32.248.60) has joined #taw
[DeathStar] Her, she needs to find a way to fix her problems and start talking more instead of wandering behind me like a ghost.
*** Kiki` is now known as Dias
[Xrileshr] I agree. That's why I stopped the discussion... We can take it up off duty if you wish though, Garland
[Garland] You can count on it.
* Xrileshr tries to find anything the MPs might have missed
* DeathStar grabs a desk from another corner and shifts it to an area and puts papers on it.
[DeathStar] Okay, Xril, take aim and fire.
* DeathStar steps away.
* Xrileshr nods
* Xrileshr steps back, takes aim (the gun seeming a bit small in his large hands), and accurately fires
[DeathStar] Keep firing...like you have a secret you want to hide.
* Xrileshr nods and continues pressing the trigger and firing, moving in a pattern
* DeathStar gazes around
[DeathStar] --Say, Garland - I feel uneasy abaout this place.  What about you?
[Garland] I have a gut feeling....
[DeathStar] My scans get bizzare in certain areas...and...strange.  Okay, Xril, stop.
* Xrileshr stops after DS says that
[DeathStar] Garland and Spirit, go grab those papers over there and move the desk by this one.
[Xrileshr] Bizzare in certain areas? I wonder if this place is wholly abondoned?
* Garland does so.
* Spirit gets the papers while Garland moves the desk
*** DeathStar sets mode: +o Dias
[DeathStar] NRP: *urges X1 well to return*
[Xrileshr] About how large were the "holes" in your scan, Death Star?
[DeathStar] I'll show you in a moment.  *Seems to focusing on a few areas*
[Xrileshr] NRP: Where'd he go to, anyway? He just seemed to disappear. One minute he's there, the next I message him and he's gone
[DeathStar] NRP: He had a bad headache.
[Xrileshr] NRP: Ahh, know the feeling
[DeathStar] NRP: *keeps chugging caffine*
* Xrileshr pays extra attention to the areas that DS does
[Garland] NRP: *runs to grab a coke*
[DeathStar] Okay...let us all compare the desk and papers.
* DeathStar looks them over, noting the burn marks are identical.
[Dias] NRP: *hands DS some coffee with laxatives mixed in*
* Xrileshr surveys them, coming to the same conclusion as Death Star
[SOUND]
[DeathStar] ...plasma burn.  They shot this place up alright.
[Xrileshr] Death Star, I think you'd be a better judge than me... About how varient are plasma burns resulting from human weaponry? In other words, perhaps they used weapons similar to ours? Or perhaps not.
[DeathStar] Alright, you three, gather all the papers and information and I'll check something out real quick.
[DeathStar] ...this is ours.  Makeshift, but human.
* Dias comes running into the room gasping for breath
[Xrileshr] NRP: Three refers to me too?
[DeathStar] NRP: Yes.
* Xrileshr gathers the papers, but glances at Death Star
* DeathStar walks over to the corner where a file cabinet is, charred
[Xrileshr] Don't wander to far alone
* Dias stands up straight breathing heavily
[DeathStar] Welcome Dias.
* Spirit does as DS ordered
* DeathStar doesn't look at him
[Dias] Ooh..should'nt have ate that last hot dog.
* DeathStar shifts the file cabinet
* Xrileshr keeps alert to the area as well as checking the papers he grabs
[Dias] Uhh...Guess I'm sorry for being late
[Xrileshr] Try to be on time next time
[DeathStar] ...*hears beep*
[Xrileshr] Watch the area for anything suspicious
[Dias] Hey, my alarm didn't go off..and I had to stop at the bathroom
* Xrileshr tries to discern where the beep came from
* DeathStar leaps up and blurs, grabbing Xril, Gar, Spirit, and Dias and runs out the building as it explodes 2 seconds later.
[Dias] GACK!
[DeathStar] DAMN MY CARELESSNESS!
* DeathStar tumbles forward from the explosion
[Xrileshr] !
* Dias goes rolling with DS
* DeathStar looks at the building, dust flying in the air as it has crumbled down; fires are here and there, but minor and of no concern
[Xrileshr] Shavrosh...! Kv'ril kvar'lso xa...!
* Dias glances at Xril
* DeathStar sighs at his carelessness and stands up
[DeathStar] Everyone okay?
* Xrileshr dusts himself off and stands
[Dias] Ya, brain scrambled a little, but nothing out of the normal
[Xrileshr] I'm unharmed, but thanks entirely to you.
[Spirit] Owwie... I'm alright....
[DeathStar] ..tell me you brought the papers with you.
[Dias] NRP: I knew I forgot something!
[Spirit] I got some...
[DeathStar] NRP: *pats his tuxedo he wore here* Hmmm?
* Xrileshr holds the papers he gathered up
[DeathStar] Good job...we have enough..*sighs* Dammit.
* Xrileshr picks up the ones that scattered when they fell and nods
[Dias] NRP: *rips off his outer layer revealing a orange tuxedo* 
-] [Garland] PING
[Dias] I was supposed to grab some papers?
* DeathStar helps Garland up
[Xrileshr] I should have been more alert to the possibility of a trap there... I must be getting a bit careless after such a large break of action. Then again, this isn't exactly commanding starships and fleets...
[Garland] NRP: errilly... back
[Garland] Thanks...
[DeathStar] No.  Lets head back up the bridge and run these through the machines.  It'll take awhile to recover the data.
[Dias] Ok.
[Xrileshr] We should get the machines started, then. We can do other tasks while they work
[DeathStar] ---*sighs* Why do I keep having a bad feeling about this?
[Xrileshr] I wonder... Is it feasible for us to storm the underworld? Somehow, I doubt it
[Dias] Because I'm here?
[DeathStar] We'll see.  To the bridge!
[DeathStar] Later: At the bridge
* Xrileshr starts toward the elevator they came from, unless DS heads another way
[DeathStar] NRP: ... hee hee, I'm getting lazy in my old age.
* Snipe stands there, arms crossed
* Spirit sits around, trying to think of a solution to her dilemma
[Snipe] So, you're saying that the building was blown up?
[Dias] Yes, only cuz DS here screwed up.
[GM] Drake: *watches the machines run, restoring whatever data that was on the papers*
[DeathStar] ...
[Snipe] Figures.  I don't see why you all look up to him so damned much.
[Xrileshr] That's correct...
[Dias] Hey, I had to give credit where credit was due
[DeathStar] ...thank you, thank you very much.
[Dias] Cuz he's taller than us?
[Snipe] ...don't --- *steadies himself* push me.
[Spirit] Ooh, Dumbass made a funny
* Garland ponders the identical burn marks,
[Xrileshr] So far, Death Star's investigation has proved to give us more information than your policies recently, Snipe, I daresay...
[Dias] Guess hell froze over.
[Snipe] ...*Glares icily at Xrileshr*
[GM] Drake: *hums funeral music*
[Dias] Ooh...trash
* Xrileshr returns his glare, not thinking overly highly of him
* Xrileshr turns back to the computer after a moment
[Xrileshr] How long will the computer take to finish compiling the information?
[Garland] Exactly how many rifles are registered on the Fury?
[Dias] NRP: I hate it when I can't think of certain words
[DeathStar] Look, everyone, we have more concerns than pity BICKERING here...isn't anyone concerned about Spirit's problem?  The crime problem?  Your illness, Snipe?
[Snipe] I told you Garland, ALREADY.  Enough for EVERY MP and a few for us
[Spirit] I am... ^^¡
[Dias] What's Spirits' problem?
[Garland] .... I was asking for a number...
[Xrileshr] I'm concerned about those and much more. I'd add to your concerns the Tsivrixsh War, the possibility of them finding us, etc. Swift action, I believe, and perhaps harsh action is strongly warrented
[Snipe] We have 30 MPs, I said that too.
* Dias walks over to Spirit
[DeathStar] War?  Hah.  We're not at war here.
[Dias] What's your dilemna?
[Xrileshr] Not neccessarily us.
* Garland narrows his eyes to Snipe, shrugging it off
[Snipe] The Tsivrixsh is the least of our concerns.  Right now we need to deal with our internal conflict before we go galloping across the galaxy.
[Xrileshr] But the gains in Tsivrixsh power, and in turn Xshiaver, worry me and will boad poorly for you in the future
[Dias] NRP: WAR? War doest'n start till the Tsiv's decide to take out their real guns
[Xrileshr] That is true. Unfortunetly, from the moment I arrived here, you have steadily moved further out of a position to rationally combat them
[Snipe] ...no shit!
[Snipe] Look at what I have to work with!  I don't have a sane person here.
* Snipe breaks out into a sweat.
[Xrileshr] Anyway... What is our next turn of action, Death Star *emphasises his name a bit*
[DeathStar] I-
[Dias] Hey....wait, good point
* Snipe cuts DS off
[Garland] Snipe, calm down.
[Snipe] I'm the leader here, I'll be deciding.
* Snipe jabs finger at Garland
[Xrileshr] You're perhaps reaping the rewards of what your "training" and policies has sown
[Xrileshr] has=have
[Snipe] I am perfectly CALM her.
[Snipe] NRP: here
[Spirit] Snipe... How did things turn out with X2?
[Snipe] Look, I've had little to work with.  We ripped off our planet with only a few live Special Unit people.  We died trying to get this ship.  This ship wasn't READY for space.
[Xrileshr] Well, what would you suggest then. I assume you don't believe yourself above suggestions from some of the other comments from officers here?
[Snipe] ...*breathes and smiles at Spirit* Still running tests.
[Garland] .... Anyway... I have a theory about the burn marks.
[Snipe] No, I don't, but if you're going to go say, "Death Star, what next?", I won't have it. The guy's a friggin' jackass with a huge ego.  
[Xrileshr] That is true. I believe your policies could have been executed better and you would be in a better position, but you can't worry and fret over that. You must take action now
[Snipe] And what's THAYT?
[Snipe] What do you think I'm trying to do Xrileshr!
[Spirit] Whew... I was afraid you didn't talk to him...  I hope they turn out okay.
[Xrileshr] Some people deserve egos.
[Garland] I don't think they were smuggled in or made here.
[Snipe] Oh, why?
* DeathStar has moved away and looks out the viewport
[Xrileshr] And some don't. Regardless, we must take the best course of action whomever it may be from
[Dias] Maybe we have some double agents or something like that.
[Garland] Because they were identical, I'm thinking, no, theorizing that we may have traitors in our ranks.
[Dias] Like maybe some MP's turned bad
[SOUND]
[Garland] Exactly.
[Snipe] ...MPs turned bad.  This is the LAST thing I need now.
[Xrileshr] Not that I have personally seen an "ego" from Death Star. Maybe I have the definition of the word wrong... Now, why don't you lead us back onto the subject at hand?
[DeathStar] .oO (...these people are pecking at a dead carcass...)
[Garland] It's the best idea I have right now.
[Dias] Snipe, what do we do next?
[Snipe] *holds head* I don't want to even consider that until we absolutely have to.
[Xrileshr] Often, people will side with those they feel most competent and deserving of their allegiance. More often, of course, they will side with those that can give them what they want... Let's hope we don't have that situation here... Again, I'll ask, may we return to deciding a course action?
[Snipe] ...we wait for those papers to come out.  Until then, I want us to start making changes and fix the damned team.  We're chaos.
[Dias] Hey Snipe, Xril just called you stupid
[Snipe] ....
[Xrileshr] I wasn't aware I did that, Dias.
[Garland] .... Dias....
[Xrileshr] Exactly what kind of changes. You have our attention, I believe
[Dias] Yes?
* Snipe raises fist in the air and slams it down, inches above the console, not hitting it, but the console dents and crumbles
[Garland] Your not helping...
[Spirit] !
[Dias] I know.
[Garland] Then start helping.
* Snipe turns away and looks at the computer screen repairing the data.
[Xrileshr] Now, let's decide how to best do what Snipe just did to the enemy. If that involves changes to our team's infrastructure, then so be it
[Dias] But I'm not good at doing that.
[GM] Drake: Might I suggest we all go our seperate ways and have a meeting later to discuss the future of the hunters?
[Dias] Hmm...No
[Xrileshr] Do we really have that time to waste?
[Xrileshr] Haven't we been doing that for the entirety of our stay in space?
[GM] Drake: If you'll excuse me, tempers are flying.
[Dias] I think we all need a short short vacation
[GM] Drake: You're all ready to boil over and snap.  YOU NEED TO TAKE A BREAK AND GET AWAY FROM EACH OTHER.
[Xrileshr] True. Perhaps a twenty minutes break or something like that
[Spirit] Drake's right
* Garland looks at Drake
[Dias] I was more or else thinking a couple days off
[GM] Drake: Try an hour.
[Snipe] Fine.  *Grabs comm to announce to all Hunters* WE'LL HAVE A MEETING ON THE HUNTERS IN 1 HOUR, CONFERENCE ROOM, BE THERe.
* Snipe slams it down and glares at Garland and the others
[Xrileshr] Personally, I don't believe I'm going to "snap." I know my prefered policies are not received all together eagerly here, but I do believe they work... *glances at Snipe* Order acknowledged
[Spirit] *gulp*
* Dias looks off into space
[Snipe] You all think I'm incompetent.  
[Dias] No;
[Garland] We never said that.
[Snipe] I bet you *jabs finger at Garland* that I can take down the second strongest there.
* DeathStar groans
[Dias] I don't even know what that word means.
[Garland] Thats not important, Snipe!
[Snipe] Pfft.  We have an hour.  Lets blow some steam.  You want to be the best, come on.  Lets spar.
[Xrileshr] Didn't you just order us to disperse...? At least, Drake did and your order implied confirmation of his
[Garland] We're supposed to be a team, however loose-nit, but that means we should be friends, and not worry about who's stronger!
[GM] Drake: ... 'get away from each other' ... no, he wants to fight.
[Xrileshr] Meditation might be better than combat, but whatever works for you.
[Dias] Hmm...I feel like sparring. Snipe care to join me?
[Snipe] It's a great way to increase our strength and train for the upcoming trials.  Don't make me go and order you.
* Kurayami sits down in a swivel chair and spins it
[DeathStar] NRP: KILL KURAYAMI!
[Kurayami] Nrp: Oops!
[Xrileshr] Perhaps a blend. Combat first and rest afterwards can be work well enough
[Garland] ......... If you want, fine.
[Spirit] NRP: Sorry, I'm falling asleep...
*** Kurayami (Avalon@CDR6-42.accesscable.net) has left #taw
[Snipe] Fine.  See you there.
* Snipe steps onto the elevator and leaves
* DeathStar turns around and glances at Garland
[Dias] Where we going?
[DeathStar] Don't tear up my simulator, kay?
[Garland] ....Why does he want to do this?
[Xrileshr] I will see you all in an hour... or rather, 56 minutes now.
* Xrileshr heads out of the bridge
[Spirit] This is a good of time as any for me to deal with my own problems... *sigh*
[Garland] Don't worry, I won't... can't promise for Snipe.....
[DeathStar] He's out for blood.
[DeathStar] But it's not his fault...it's whatever is alling him.
[Garland] ...Thats what I'm afraid of....
* Garland looks at DS as he teleports away
[DeathStar] ...the boiling points over, now the team shatters.
[Spirit] Teleport... I gotta learn to do that...
[DeathStar] Session Ends
