<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-586.6.30 -2 weeks after Episode 3-
<DeathStar> Location: Tokyo, Japan
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sits in with a meeting with CAssandra, Cheryl, and Zephyr.
* Alicia is now known as Red_Fox
<DeathStar> <Warren> Those are the estimates on the troops we'll need to take the planet? 6He asks Cassandra as he glances down at the datapad before him.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias sits at a restaurant, his attention focused on the childrens menu.
<Cassandra`> The minimum.
* Seraphna sits in the lab, working on an odd device that seems to go on someone's arm.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Understood. 6He clicks a few buttons. "Janus will be finishing the flagship in a few weeks. Once we're sure it's ready for battle, then we'll know when we're ready to begin the operation. In the meantime, here's a disk for you, General Arakawa. This is a sim for your troops so they can be prepared to fight on the rugged terrain."
* Marcus` has his head on the table in front of Dias. "ohhhh...My stomach hurts."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren hands out a disk to Cassandra
<DeathStar> 6* Pope sits in a protected area with Em. "So, you feeling better, luv?" 6He smokes his cig.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *plots to make it into one of those meetings eventually, and prove she's not just a pretty face on the general's arm*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slowly grabs a red circle and sets it on the blue square. His eyes narrow as he see's it resist going in. He begins to force it in
<Ariel> Em> "Next time I think of doing something stupid... don't let me."
* Marcus` slowly looks up at Dias. "You...you're such a moron."
<DeathStar> <Pope> I'll try.
* Red_Fox watches Sera with idle curiosity. "How are things going?"
* Seraphna turns and smiles to her, signing, "Alright, I think this device will solve my speaking problem."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Am not...6He furrows his brow as he begins pushing it harder, twisting as he pushes down
* Red_Fox smiles
<Red_Fox> "Good to hear."
<Marcus`> ...Why are we here anyway?
<DeathStar> <Warren> My arm does get tired. 6He notes as he holds out the disk
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Obviously because I'm hungry...6He looks at Marcus as if he's a complete moron. 1"God...This thing is dumb. No one can do it." 6He shoves it off the side of the table.
<Ariel> Em> "Good... this hurts."
* Cassandra` takes the disk.
* Seraphna grins at the irony of the statement, fixing some of her rather wild hair, she's had a lot of trouble keeping it tame. She then turns, putting the device on her arm, she signs, a voice much like hers says, "...Test... This... a test..."
<DeathStar> <Pope> Well, you look better. It only took a month to recover. That isn't bad.
* Seraphna smirks and takes it off, continuing to adjust.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren rests his arm down. "Well, that's all for today's meeting. Continue to get all your separate divisions ready for the operation. Bring in only those you need to.
* Marcus` eyes it and narrows his eyes. "Blue sqaure goes in blue hole. Red circle goes in red hole. Green triangle goes in green hole....Oh wait. You're color blind. BAHAHA!" He points at Dias and laughs.
<Red_Fox> "Pretty impressive."
<Cassandra`> Yes, sir.
<Ariel> Em> "At least the baby is alright..."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren salutes, stands, and walks out. Cheryl and Zephyr stand as well
* Cassandra` rises from her seat.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias crosses his arms in anger at Marcus. 1"Hmpf..." 6He suddenly winces as he grabs his ribs.
* Seraphna signs, "Only takes a mechanical genius with a speach problem."
* Marcus` pauses and eyes Dias. "Still sore from that rocket impact?"
<Red_Fox> "Well, they do say neccessity is the mother of invention."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> So, we're really going to be doing this. 6She notes to Cassandra.
<Cassandra`> Yes...we're investigating too uch time, manpower, and resources in prep to not follow through.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'm glad. No one should suffer under Tsivrixsh rule. 6She nods and walks out.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> No, it was the being embedded into the car that hurt.
<Marcus`> Ah. Yeah, my first words were oops. I swear.
<DeathStar> 6* A rocket slams into the resturant, blowing up people.
<Marcus`> OH JESUS CHRIST! *he gets knocked out of his seat and slides against the wall*
<Ariel> Setsuna> *wonders what the hell is going on with the military heads anyways*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias groans as the rocket slams into the resturant. 1"Good to know EarthGov's real good at keeping this planet safe from invaders!"
* Seraphna sighs and signs out, "I can't use Betas anymore for speech, and our wetware department isn't quite up to snuff for a chipset to translate thoughts into speech, so this will do for now."
<DeathStar> 6* Someone's burnt arm lands on Marcus - just the arm.
<Red_Fox> "I never expected you to become human, to be honest."
* Cassandra` turns and leaves the meeting room.
* Marcus` screams like a girl and throws it off. He pauses and glances at Dias. "Never tell anyone I scream like that."
* Seraphna looks down, shrugging, "I don't think anyone did." She signs out.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias sighs and puts on a moustache and a hat. He stands up
<DeathStar> 6* Another rocket flies through the ruined wall at the two.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias scowls and drops to the ground.
* Marcus` dives to the right, rolling into a bunch of debri.
<DeathStar> 6* The rocket hits the middle, blowing up everyone in the resturant - except Dias and MArcus, who were trained to dodge and hide.
<DeathStar> 6* The roof collapses in on the two
* Seraphna signs, "I just wanted to be a natural human, the Omega thing was forced on me."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You'd think they'd eventual....Ahh fuck.
* Marcus` glances up and sighs. "Oh piss."
<Ariel> Setsuna> *looks up as Cass steps out* "How'd it go?"
<DeathStar> 6* Pope suddenly feels glad that Em is smart, and offers her a cig
<Cassandra`> Good or bad...hard to tell.
<Red_Fox> "I can understand that, I guess."
<Ariel> Em> *shakes her head* "I get my yearly smoke inhailation from grenades."
* Seraphna looks at her, pushing some of her hair out of her face, before signing, "Do you think I made a mistake?"
<DeathStar> 6* After a bit, the resturant quiets down, except for the cries of baby somewhere in the debris
* Marcus` slowly moves his arm, being buried by a nice amount of debris.
<Red_Fox> "It's too early to tell, but... no. I don't."
* Chad`Winters eyes the news on his HoloVid as he begins sorting out paper on the walls behind him
<DeathStar> 6* Police units and military units begin to arrive at the resturant - it seems Dias and MArcus were being watched
<DeathStar> 6* Cassandra gets a datapad message about the attack on the restuarant
* Seraphna smiles softly, "I'm really glad you're here with me..." *she signs slowly*
* Marcus` slowly lifts himself up from the debris, cuts and bruises apparent on his body and face.
<DeathStar> 6* Chad would see the reporters reporting on the attack, already having arrived
<Red_Fox> "Thanks... it's been a while since anyone's said anything like that to me."
<Chad`Winters> 6A small piece of wall rolls to the side and Dias pops out, a baby in his arms. 1"Guh...I'm definetly giving the service a bad review.
* Seraphna reaches out and hugs onto her tightly.
* Red_Fox hugs Seraphna back tightly
* Cassandra` sends a detachment of special forces to the attack site.
* Marcus` slowly wipes some blood off his forehead. "Why can't they just give up? We're clearly too stupid to die."
* Chad`Winters pulls out a marker and begins writing something on the wall. 1"Aya, can you hand me the yellow rope?"
* Seraphna looks up at her, then looks away as though nervous.
<Red_Fox> "What's wrong?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya grabs it and walks over
* Marcus` moves over to Dias. "Hey you saved a kid. How heroic of you."
<DeathStar> 6* Marcus and Dias would see them bringing out the dead body of their attackers - their throats slashed
* Seraphna looks down shyly, she signs, a bit hesitantly, "It's nothing... really..."
* Marcus` blinks and eyes the attacker's bodies. "I know that handy work..."
<Red_Fox> "Well, alright.."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr arrives on the scene herself, her hair done up in a ponytail. "Do you two think you could learn the word discreet?"
* Seraphna looks up at her again, for the first time in weeks, her cheeks contain a light blush.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances at the attackers, eyeing the slashed throats. 1"Someone you dated before?
<Cassandra`> 6* Army special forces arrive at the restaurant...
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr eyes the resturaunt
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at Zephyr. 1"I wore a moustache!"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I will put you back in the cell, Dias, and leave you there until Xevil is killed. And that could take years.
<Marcus`> ....I guess. *he rubs the back of his head, sighing* We even came in through the back. How did they find us?
<Red_Fox> .oO(Oh. I get it now.)
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well what do you want me to do than?! I've been doing the best I can to stay low key. I mean maybe if you guys focused on planet security the Tsiv wouldn't keep getting on the planet.
<Ariel> Em> "How do you think things are going for the others?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Don't you dare blame this on us.
* Marcus` looks from the two then slowly steps out of the remains of the resaurant.
* Chad`Winters kneels down and grabs the rope smiling to her. 1"Thanks princess." 6He begins to start using it to connect things.
<DeathStar> <Pope> Hard to say. I'll be busy in a few weeks. I have an assignment on the flagship when it finishes. 6He blows out his smoke.
* Seraphna turns away, trying to hide the look as she picks up a datapad, running a diagnostic on her new invention.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Then it's obviously my fault. This is what I get for trying to save the world. 6He throws his hands up in anger.
<Ariel> 6* Em sighs at that, closign her eyes.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Fine. Be a child, Dias. And keep picking locations to hang out where innocents could get caught in the crossfire.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias suddenly freaks out and catches the baby.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr turns and walks off.
* Marcus` frowns. "Maybe we should just find an old abanoded warehouse to hang out in..."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And how would you hide about discreetly? Tell me that.
* Seraphna signs, "Has... the project... been delayed at all with all the orders we've had to fill?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr is already gone.
<Red_Fox> "I don't think so.."
<Chad`Winters> Dias looks over at Marcus. 1"Oh god no. I am not going to spend god knows how fucking long in an abandoned warehouse with you.
<DeathStar> 6* The baby wails with the power of a thousand wails.
<Cassandra`> ....Setsuna...how about we head home now?
<Marcus`> It's a bi-owwwww! Make it stop! MAKE IT STOP!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias's jaw drops at the baby's wailing and just hands it over to a cop.
<DeathStar> 6* The cop freaks out and shoots it
<DeathStar> 6* The cop takes the child and walks off with it
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Yeah... beats sticking around here." *pauses, then adds* "So... you ever going to fill me in on this?"
* Seraphna looks over her shoulder at her, she signs again, "Were you... planing on anything tonight?"
<Red_Fox> "No, I don't have any plans."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> All I wanna know is how the hell they keep getting on planet. 6He just grumbles
* Seraphna smiles a little and signs, "Dinner then?"
<Marcus`> They were probably already here. Sleeper agents or something.
<Ariel> Em> "You know... once upon a time, I didn't worry about having a part in trying to save the universe... I just worried about getting by..."
<DeathStar> 6* A figure watches the two from a vantage point, licking their lips
<DeathStar> <Pope> Well, luv, you could always go and get lost out there in the stars. Be safer than Earth.
<Cassandra`> When I decide what your role will be.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yes Marcus, sleeper Tsiv...On Earth.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Fun..."
<Marcus`> ...they used to have control of this place. If they didn't instill some type of secret bases, then well...they're morons.
<Ariel> Em> "...alone? That would have appealed back then, but not now..."
<Red_Fox> "Dinner's good."
<Cassandra`> And the reason I haven't decided yet...is because I feel conflicted...
<DeathStar> 6* Pope blows out smoke. "Well, luv, if you want to hang with us crazy people, expect potshots now and again."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Stupid Earthgov Military...6He just mutters. 1"Well if we're gonna find a warehouse, let's atleast make it huge.
<Marcus`> Oh! I know where some are. Down by the pier. *he smiles and begins to move off toward them*
<Ariel> Em> "...what?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes Marcus, wondering when he ever went secret base shopping and starts walking after him
<DeathStar> <Pope> We're in the spotlight. People like Xevil are always goin' be tryin' to take us down a notch. I imagine this life will always be full of danger.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy runs in front of Dias and Marcus, chasing a cat with wings
* Chad`Winters steps back from the wall, eyeing it. 1"We're missing something important Aya..."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya just stares
* Marcus` pauses and eyes Billy running by, he glances at Dias.
* Seraphna stands and grabs her coat, a smaller one then she had before to fit her slightly smaller frame, she smiles gently.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Cass. I've been at this as long as you have. And I'm certainly no push over. Being stuck doing this damn show piece role is going to drive me crazy. We used to work as partners."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Odd...Was Billy wearing a dress?
<DeathStar> 6* Warren steps into Chad's apartment without knocking or using a key. "I brought some more files I could find on your Dr. Johnson."
* Chad`Winters glances back at the news.
<Red_Fox> "Lets go?"
* Chad`Winters suddenly turns, a gun slipping into his hand from his back, he aims it at Warren, then drops it. 1"Thanks."
<Marcus`> ...I dunno. *he shrugs and resumes walking* So I was telling this guy in that sake bar about my problems. He said he knew some real prime spots down at the pier.
<DeathStar> <Warren> You would have missed. 6He notes, handing out the disk.
<Ariel> Em> "It's not being shot at that bugs me... it's that... well... what can I do to help? Just... sit here and hide?"
<DeathStar> <Pope> Well, if I had your abilities luv, I'd use my mind to find the enemies and hit them first.
<Chad`Winters> I wasn't aiming for you. 6He nods at something on the door frame.
<Cassandra`> The problem is I'm general now. I can't go out in the field. I can't give you a promotion because of our relationship...hell...I have to be careful just deciding where to assign you.
<DeathStar> <Warren> And risk blowing up the apartment wall?
* Seraphna nods and leads the way out, walking with Red, rather then leading, as they both know the way.
<Chad`Winters> It is a lovely wall...6He nods to Warren. 1"So what did you find out?"
* Red_Fox heads out, glad for the current peace, at least
<DeathStar> <Warren> Just some files on his college youth. He had a thesis on making the perfect human fighting machine. One where emotions could not get in the way. Except those needed to be the best killer. Enhanced killer instinct, enhanced aim, stamina, agility. He predicted that 1 of these men could replace 100 soldiers."
<DeathStar> <Warren> I would guess Id is the result of your mental tampering.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You told him what was going on? And she said I'm to out in the open...
<Chad`Winters> Agreed.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...so what am I supposed to do?"
<Ariel> Em> *frowns* "It doesn't work that way... I don't have deus ex machina in my arsenal."
* Seraphna steps outside and signs, "My place?"
<Marcus`> I told him I was hiding from people. That's all. I didn't mention there were these big ugly aliens attacking me.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Since you fought Slash, another Weapons: Project candidate, and he had all of Ids qualities, it would stand to reason Dias has them, too. Somewhere inside him is a personality that does not match that of an idiot.
<Cassandra`> Let's discuss this over tea.
<Ariel> Setsauna> "Yeah, sure..."
<DeathStar> <Pope> You mean to tell me you couldn't hone your mind to sense hostile intentions?
<Chad`Winters> Cran warned me of such a possibilty. I figured when his brain rewired itself after taking the shot to the head it routed around most of them.
<DeathStar> <Warren> That, or his brain rewired itself so that he can switch back and forth between assassin and normal, every day kid easier.
<Cassandra`> Setsuna...
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh...Really?
<Ariel> Em> "Do you realize how much of the world out there is feeling hostility? Try walking down mainstreet at rush hour. You don't need to be psychic."
<Chad`Winters> But the odds that his brain would rewire itself in such a way...
<Marcus`> Well yeah. I'm dense sometimes...but that's just dumb. I think he probably thinks the Yakuza are after me or something.
<DeathStar> <Warren> What are the odds your brain would do the things it has done?
<DeathStar> <Warren> Also, his color blindness would make him better killer. Seeing in black and white would make it easier to be a killer, I'd imagine. Compartmentalize it. You won't have to see the red of blood when you kill your targets. Zephyr doesn't see in color when she takes her kill shots.
* Chad`Winters eyes Warren. 1"True...If thats the case, then this Stryfe was most likely gearing towards opening up his Assassin state of mind then."
* Seraphna shows up in the hallway outside her apartment with Red a short time later, passing by Cheryl's door.
<DeathStar> <Warren> That would be my guess.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren crosses his arms, appearing as well informed as the other Warren
<Chad`Winters> The only advantage Dias has is the fact that from when he was awokened, he had a...good if you will, upraising. That's barring that He wasn't being trained before he was stuck in the tube.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Come on Cass, you know this isn't right. Sure. You're top General now. That's great. But there's no damn good reason that I should be doing less than when I was working on the fricken PAX."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes the ocean in the distance. 1"So down there huh?
<DeathStar> <Warren> There's a possibility there's a switch in his brain that could activate the assassin in him. Johnson would have learned after you lost your Id persona.
* Marcus` nods, his arms behind his head as he walks. "See those large buildings off to the left?"
<Chad`Winters> He'd be an assassin without a target than.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> The one's that strangely resemble to boobs?
<DeathStar> <Warren> I imagine Stryfe will give him the targets. We have to assume Stryfe is the culmination of everything you, Dias, and Slash were not.
<Marcus`> Yeah. That's sadly not the place. But we get a nice view of it from over to the right. I just pointed to the left because if someone is watching us, they'll think we're going there...though if they're listening to us...well now that plans just ruined. *he sighs*
<Chad`Winters> But if that's the case Stryfe was made after the fact and he wouldn't be able to command Dias in that state of mind since Dias wouldn't recognize him or his voice.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...You're an idiot.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I imagine, the only thing that separates you and Stryfe in the field of battle, if Johnson learned from his mistakes, is the intelligence Cran programmed into you under Johnson's nose. We cannot underestimate him.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> If they're watching us than they know which way we'll walk.
* Xan|Gonetwice has joined #taw
* Seraphna lets Red into her apartment, a clean place, partially her natural incliunation for a clean enviroment, partially due to her never being there.
<Chad`Winters> That and his ability to...disappear and reappear out of mid-air.
* Red_Fox heads in. "Nice place."
<DeathStar> <Warren> A useful tactic.
<Xan|Gonetwice> <Marcus> ...well great. we should find a new place then.
<Cassandra`> Then we'll figure it out...together...ok?
<Chad`Winters> Make's him the perfect assassin in most regards.
<DeathStar> <Warren> There's a chance, Chad, that you will be Dias' ultimate target if Stryfe succeeds in activating him.
<Xan|Gonetwice> <Marcus> Yeah I didn't think of that either...should we risk splitting up. Or maybe we should hit the sewers?
<Chad`Winters> It's not about being a chance Warren, it will happen.
* Seraphna smiles at the compliment and motions to the couch, inviting her to take a seat as she works her own coat off.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Eh, fuck it. Let's go. 6He starts walking towards the warehouse
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grunts.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "I hope so... damn it Cass, I do love you. But since you got your promotion, it's been impossible to work with you. I shouldn't have to sacrifice my job for our relationship."
* Marcus` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Red_Fox sits down.
* Seraphna signs, "Want anything to drink?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pauses, glancing at his datapad.
<Red_Fox> "Please."
<Xan|Gonetwice> *Marcus sighs and follows Dias.
<DeathStar> <Warren> That is impossible.
* Chad`Winters looks over at Warren. 1"Explain."
<Cassandra`> Come on. *heads for home*
* Xan|Gonetwice is now known as Marcus`
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... Someone using Seraphna's DNA and eye scans managed to gain access to some files from our bases. The problem is that they used her old scans. Most things have been recoded to her new DNA as Angela Bennet, but it seems not everything was updated.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *sighs, and heads after Cass*
* Chad`Winters eyes Warren, quickly soaking up the information. 1"Most likely Phaeton.
<DeathStar> <Pope> But how many of those hostile intentions are directed towards you?
<Chad`Winters> What did they get a hold of?
<DeathStar> <Warren> Classified.
<Chad`Winters> I see, than I'd expect a huge backlast coming soon.
<Red_Fox> "Something big is definitely coming up... I hope I'm ready."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren flips through his DNA, pausing as he eyes the image of the person who did it. "It's Seraphna."
<Chad`Winters> Impossible...Unless...
<DeathStar> <Warren> Damn.
* Seraphna comes out and sits, holding two glasses, she offers one to Red.
<Marcus`> *Marcus stops at the front of the warehouse and eyes it. "Soo...how do we get in? I bet the doors are locked."
* Red_Fox takes hers and sips it.
<Ariel> Em> "Well... alright. So, if I narrow it down to those hostile to me, which is harder than it sounds... that's basically a danger sense there."
<Cassandra`> Change into something more comfortable and I will do the same. *said as they get back home*
* Seraphna smiles and sips hers as well, it's a very light Saki.
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna's datapad beeps as it gets the same information as Warren has gotten
* Chad`Winters clicks his tongue. 1"She'll go after Serena, I advise you warn her. She's most likely working with Phaeton also. 6He scowls slightly, obviously angry at hismelf.
<Red_Fox> "Something new?"
* Seraphna blinks and pulls out her Datapad, looking at it curiously.
* Seraphna signs, "He's moving."
<DeathStar> <Warren> This DNA is too perfect a match. There's 0 errors.
<Red_Fox> "'he'?"
<DeathStar> <Pope> You could be like Spider-man.
* Seraphna signs, "Phaeton... and it looks like Zera is alive and with him."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pauses, coming to a conclusion on the fly. "Phaeton."
<DeathStar> <Warren> What have you done.
<Red_Fox> "I wondered where he'd got to."
<Ariel> Em> "...spider who?"
<DeathStar> <Pope> A guy with eight arms and a danger sense
<Chad`Winters> ...6Looks at Warren. 1"Wait...You don't think he."
* Marcus` just walks over and pushes on the door.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I would.
<DeathStar> 6* The doors to the warehosue open
<Ariel> Em> "...rather not be a freak, thank you."
<DeathStar> 6* Pope chuckles.
* Seraphna looks again at the datapad and looks grim, "...At least, I think it's Zera."
<Chad`Winters> Dias moves inside, glancing around. 1"I sure hope there aren't in ninja's around.
<Marcus`> Oh..well I guess they weren't locked. Why would there be ninja's here?
<Red_Fox> "Any reason?"
<DeathStar> 6* Tsivrixsh leap out from the rafters, appearing out of nowhere as they land around them. They open fire on the two
<Marcus`> AH! *he dives to the ground*
<Chad`Winters> I thought time hated paradox's.
* Seraphna signs, "Phaeton has had a long time to plan this, I think..."
<DeathStar> <Warren> Sera is Angela now.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias leaps to the side, rolling behind a support beam. 1"Ahh NINJA TSIV!"
<DeathStar> 6* They fire a rocket toward MArcus
* Seraphna is now known as Angela
* Marcus` stumbles up to his feet and dives, sliding around another support beam.
<Marcus`> NINJA TSIV WITH ROCKETS!
<DeathStar> 6* The rocket explodes, blowing out a wall. They fire a rocket at the support beam.
<Chad`Winters> I don't enjoy quantum physics...
<DeathStar> 6* Pope sits down on Em's bed.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias scrambles away, moving.
* Marcus` slides to the right and runs, letting the rocket hit the beam, he has the pistol out that billy give him and he fires towards one of the rocket Tsiv.
<DeathStar> <Warren> You should focus on Stryfe. I will handle this new development
<DeathStar> 6* The pistol doesn't fire.
* Angela stands and looks troubled. Signing, "Would Spade have lied to me even on his death bed..."
<DeathStar> 6* The rocket slams into the support beam.
* Marcus` widens his eyes and slides behing another beam, he eyes the pistol. "WORK DAMNIT!" he smacks it.
<DeathStar> 6* The beam explodes.
<Red_Fox> "I can't say. He was always devoted to his goals, to the expense of everything else, but..."
* Angela signs, "We need to get to Warren, I'm sure he knows what's going on. Communication on anything but Gold Channel is going to be watched."
<Red_Fox> "Then lets go."
<Red_Fox> "I hope you know where he is."
* Red_Fox finishes her drink and stands
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias begins circling around.
<Ariel> Em> "I... I miss being a pilot..."
* Chad`Winters rubs his forehead. 1"They really know when to come out of the wood works.."
<DeathStar> <Pope> You could fly shuttles. 6He offers.
* Marcus` growls and leans around the corner, throwing the pistol at one of the tsiv. "Stupid weapons breaking on me...fucking Billy wants me to die.." he mumbles.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivixsh fire a rocket to cut off Dias
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna sits quietly in the tea house... Cass said she wanted to talk there. She wears a straight black Kimono.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias screeches to a halt letting the rocket keep going. He turns around and begins running the other way.
* Cassandra` comes back to the teahouse in her own kimono, setting up the tea.
<DeathStar> 6* The rocket slams into the wall, blowing it up. The warehouse shudders.
* Angela steps out and walks down the hall to Cheryl's apartment, knocking.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grunts, turning and stepping out of Chad's place and moving for his command center
<DeathStar> 6* There's no answer
* Red_Fox sticks with Angela
<DeathStar> 6* Tsivrixsh fire lasers toward Marcus' hiding spot.
* Angela sighs and dials Warren, leaving only a short message, "We need to meet."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> That's it...I'm sick of this shit. 6He slams his foot onto the ground. 1"SUPER MEGATON ATOMIC PUNCH!" 6He punches the ground.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh stare.
* Marcus` breaths heavily. Suddenly he presses his hands together and begins to pray apparently. "Lord. If you can give me a weapon. I will rid this planet of the scurge plauging it...AH GOTTTA GO. THANKS!" He slides around to the right and begins sprinting towards the next beam.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind idlely debates erasing Marcus
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias points above them.
<Ariel> Em> "That's not really what I ment..."
<Ariel> Setsuna> "So...."
<DeathStar> <Pope> I know, luv.
<DeathStar> 6* A rocket flies at the beam MArcus is running toward.
* Angela looks to Red and signs, "I guess we'll eat at the base."
<DeathStar> 6* They look up
* Marcus` slides to a halt and turns, scraping at the ground to run back to his original beam.
<Chad`Winters> Dias suddenly dashes in towards them.
<Red_Fox> "Right."
<Cassandra`> Let's talk... *pours two cups of tea*
<DeathStar> 6* They aim at Dias and open fire
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slides and turns, running. 1"AYYIEEEEE!"
<Red_Fox> "Lets head over as quickly as possible."
<DeathStar> 6* The warehouse shudders with only three support beams holding it up
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias keeps running erractically. 1"STUPID DARIEN AND HIM NOT GIVING ME MY RUNE!"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias skids and leaps to the side hiding behind one of the three remaining support beams
* Marcus` slides behind the last beam on the left side and breaths slowly. "I...I'm going to die...and I pissed Billy off so she wont come and save me..."
<DeathStar> 6* A gun lands in front of Dias.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "You know what the problem is... what can we do about it?"
<Chad`Winters> Dias blinks and eyes the gun, looking around.
<Ariel> Em> *burries her face*
* Marcus` glances down and picks up a rock, he pauses and gets a look on his face like he is thinking very hard about something.
<DeathStar> 6* Pope sits by Em, putting an arm around her. "Maybe you could find a new Dragoon, luv."
* Angela arrives at the base with Re a short time later, stepping in. She walks to the front, leaving orders that anyone looking like the old her is NOT to be permitted.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias just shrugs and picks it up. He hops around the support beam and hurls it at the Tsiv.
* Setsuna` has joined #taw
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh ignore it.
<DeathStar> 6* They fire a rocket at the beam that Dias is hiding behind
<Angela> * THe list has now been expanded from Bob the Janitor... that damn Bob.
* Marcus` pokes his head out then throws the rock with all his might, apparently attemping to make the rock ricochet off their heads.
<Chad`Winters> Dias screams and dashes away, heading for the last support beam. He casually slides upto it and leans against it.
<Cassandra`> Do you like working with me?
<DeathStar> 6* Dias would see another gun there when he arrives.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias pauses, than blinks, looking at the new gun. He shrugs and picks it up and pulls the trigger.
* Angela checks her datapad in case Warren's responded, though hoping he realised that meeting meant coming in person.
<DeathStar> 6* It fires a shot that richoettes off the beams on the roof.
<Red_Fox> "I hope he's not too busy.."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> So that's how they work...6He turns and fires it at the tsiv.
<DeathStar> 6* They dodge.
<Setsuna`> "Well... I don't tend to partner with anyone if that tells you anything."
<DeathStar> 6* One prepares a rocket.
<Setsuna`> Em> "...there's not a lot."
* Marcus` slides back around regardless of if the rock even got close enough to em.
<DeathStar> <Pope> ....
<Chad`Winters> Dias eyes the one preparing the rocket and fires at him
<DeathStar> 6* He steps aside, focused enough to look at Dias horizontally.
* Marcus` glances around and sighs. "I can't do anything here..."
<Cassandra`> Then you should work with me...I can't directly give you a promotion...but I could use an aide. I mean...its a far cry from the old days of busting heads back to back...but still...
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I HATE GUNS! 6He fires at the rafters above the tsiv
* Angela stops, halfway down a hallway, things dawning on her.
<DeathStar> 6* It bounces and kills the rocket Tsivrixsh
<Red_Fox> "Something wrong?"
<Setsuna`> "An aide?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias scratches his head confused then shrugs and begins firing at the rafters gleefully
* Angela signs, "Those NA samples were timed... he had to be sure I changed in time..."
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh are cut to pieces before they know what happens, each of Dias' aims perfect.
<Red_Fox> "He was planning for this?"
* Marcus` hears the sound of Tsvi blood hitting the ground and he glances around the rafter. "What the hell did you do!?"
* Angela signs, "Zeraphna's dead... thinking she survived is silly... yes..."
* Marcus` slowly slides around his rafter, glancing around for more of them.
<Red_Fox> "So, you think he cloned her?"
<Cassandra`> Fill in when I can't be everywhere at once. That means what I know, you need to know.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes the two remaining support beams. He pokes the one by him with his finger. 1"We should probably leave..."
* Angela signs, "That or simply took custody of a child that never died..."
<DeathStar> <Voice near Dias> I knew you could do it
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh come on Marcus, it was luck...6He continues to poke the support beam.
<Marcus`> ....Hold on. I'm going to take on of their guns. I'm tired of being weaponless. *he runs over and lifts up one of the Tsiv rifles, he lifts up suddenly at the voice and pauses glancing around*
<Red_Fox> "..."
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple emerges in front of Dias and MArcus
<Marcus`> AH! *he stumbles back* I hate when he does that!
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> When who does...what..6He glances over seeing Ripple, he quickly shifts into his fighting crouch stance.
* Angela looks down, signing, "He... wanted me to become Angela... so his Sera could exist and work for his needs."
<DeathStar> <Ripple> You are perfect, Dias. You just need to be pushed.
<Marcus`> Dias...perfect? *he suddenly busts out laughing*
<Red_Fox> "Do you think you made a mistake?"
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple slashes the air with a strange weapon and suddenly a cut appears on MArcus' cheek
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh come on now...6He waves his hand as if embarrassed then stops eyeing Marcus. 1"Fuck you jockey boy.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Stay out of this, you primitive human
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> HAH! Hear that. Primitive.
* Marcus` blinks and stumbles back again. "o-o-ok I'l just stand of here." his hand slides to his cheek as he slides over toward one of the holes in the wall.
* Angela nods
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Dias, I could unlock more of your abilities. Just like with the gun.
* Angela signs, "This could take a while, but I want teh samples I had extracted before the process analysed and the DNA machine adjusted."
<Setsuna`> "...so, it's horribly vague."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> But I'm already perfect...What more could I need? 6He begins balancing the gun on his foot.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Enough to kill Xevil.
<Cassandra`> You could apply to the assignment office...but I can't gurantee you'll be assigned to me...or even on the same planet for that matter...
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias narrows his eyes at Ripple. 1"Oh I'll kill him and it'll be with my own two hands...And a club, or a missile. Or a really big missile.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> That ego is a flaw, Dias.
* Angela signs, "Do whatever it takes, but try to simply extract Ariel's side of the DNA, the parts that made me the Omega."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> This ego is what woo's the woman my friend. 6He points at himself with his thumb
<DeathStar> <Ripple> You cannot beat him with your current tactics. But I can unlock more.
<Red_Fox> "For information, or...?"
<Setsuna`> "Well... if I get to do something, it's good."
* Angela looks at her grimly. "Time to play mad scientist." She signs.
<Red_Fox> "I see..."
<Cassandra`> You'll be my right arm.
* Marcus` slides the Tsiv rifle onto his back and kneels over one of the other ones, searching it for a sidarm and a knife.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And why the hell not?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I can kick his ass and I can kick your ass. Hell, I can kick anyone's ass that get's in my way.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Then attack me.
* Angela heads down to the DNA labs herself.
<Red_Fox> "You're certain about this?"
* Red_Fox follows
* Angela nods.
<Setsuna`> "... I do object t being a frankenstein."
<Cassandra`> Not literally..
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Fine. 6He flicks his foot up spinning the gun into the air, he shifts his feet about, hopping from side to side as the gun begins to fall through the air.
<DeathStar> 6* The gun falls into a rippling portal and vanishes.
<Setsuna`> "Well... it WOULD be... interesting."
* Angela steps into the DNA labs and looks around.
<DeathStar> 6* All the DNA samples are gone - completely removed.
* Angela starts to demand answers as to where they've gone.
<DeathStar> 6* No one seems able to provide them
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias blinks his stance pausing briefly, he quickly kicks off the ground and dashes in at Ripple, his left forearm held infront of him while his right hand hangs loosely to the side.
<Red_Fox> "Sneaky."
* Angela sighs and signs, "This is going to be harder then I thought."
<Red_Fox> "Definitely."
* Angela looks to her, "Looks like Janus has a mission."
<Cassandra`> Now then...I'll fill you in on the details once all of the paperwork is complete.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple steps to the side and opens a rippling effect in front of Dias
<Red_Fox> "Mission accepted."
* Angela signs, "I want her DNA."
* Red_Fox nods
* Marcus` fastens the large knife to his leg in a sheath and then lifts a larger than human hand gun. He eyes it and then slides it into his belt. "Jesus...just carrying all this stuff around will be a workout..." He begins to walk away from the middle, he pauses and eyes Ripple and Dias. "...Maybe I should go get help?"
<Setsuna`> "urg... i hate paper work."
<Red_Fox> "Might be difficult, though."
<Cassandra`> Welcome to my new world.
* Angela signs, "I also want all Betas possible locked down with the interference code that made me unable to use them."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias throws his body around as Ripple side steps, his leg swinging down in an arc and right into the rippling effect.
<DeathStar> 6* The ripple effect closes and Dias' leg is gone
<DeathStar> 6* A leg appears above MArcus and lands on him
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Your tactics will get you killed, Dias.
* Marcus` rubs his head. "OW!" he glances to see what hit him.
<Setsuna`> Em>"I mean.. the only ones I really know are Zephy and cheryl..."
<DeathStar> <Pope> They don't see the bonding type.
* Marcus` widens his eyes and then glances up to Dias without a leg. "...oh crap."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias stumbles falling onto the floor, blood gushing out of his stump.
* Angela heads to her office, openign a panel, she extracts a datapad, grabbing another one off her shelf, she copies data onto it.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple kneels. "Brother. You could be so much more."
* Marcus` pulls up the Tsiv rifle and aims at Ripple. "Leave me alone!"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias begins breathing heavily. He eyes Ripple and flicks his bloodied stump at him, sending blood at him.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple ignores Marcus, letting the blood land on his face. He reaches for Dias' head.
* Marcus` fires at Ripple.
* Angela sends out immediate orders to erase any access her old DNA and self had to the base, before heading back to the DNA labs, where she hands a doctor the datapad she copied over.
<DeathStar> 6* The shot flies into a ripple effect and the shots flies at MArcus back.
<Setsuna`> Em> "Cheryl scares me anyways..."
<DeathStar> <Pope> *laughs*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias growls and plants his hand, using it as leverage to send a kick towards Ripple's side.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple is kicked, sliding back.
<Setsuna`> '...maybe I should be glad Im not promoted."
* Marcus` widens his eyes and moves to avoid the shot but get hit in the lower shoulder blade. He releases a grunt of pain and collapses to a knee. "...fucking...cheater..."
<DeathStar> <Ripple> I shall kill your friend, Dias. Maybe anger will fuel you
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple walks toward Marcus
* Angela signs, "Theses are the notes on the project, if we cannot get the rogue, we will replicate the project."
<Setsuna`> "...or do I need to do YOUR paperwork?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias rips a piece of his shirt off and quickly tires it around the stump. He pushes himself onto his one leg. 1"YOUR FIGHTS WITH ME!"
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple continues to approach Marcus.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias begins hopping towards Ripple.
* Red_Fox nods quietly, seeming worried.
* Marcus` slowly stands, his left arm limp. He shifts the rifle to his right hand and he slowly backs up.
<Setsuna`> Em> "I'd trust Zephy though...'
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple trusts as a shot flies down at him. He leaps to the side as it hits the ground.
<DeathStar> (twists)
* Angela looks to her, signing, "We need to find her... I feel responsible for this..."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hops forward onto his hands and quickly begins moving towards Ripple on his hands.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple glances upward at the rafters
* Marcus` blinks and glances up.
<Red_Fox> "You weren't to know."
<DeathStar> 6* A man with white hair aims at him. "Well, hey, looks like my type of fight."
* Angela sighs, "But my actions let this happen..."
* Marcus` arches a brow, not knowing who this man is.
<Cassandra`> Don't worry...if you were stuck busy with paperwork, I'd be lonely.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Tch. Until next time, Dias. If you put your leg on ice, you can save it
<Red_Fox> "Don't beat yourself up over it.. just do what you can to make things better."
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple steps through a rippling effect and vanishes.
<Setsuna`> /me grins
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias shoves off his hands at Ripple as he disappears, he hits the ground with a thud.
* Angela sends out another message to Warren about meeting.
<DeathStar> <Pope> She seems a mite bit nuts to me. Maybe you should try someone less insane.
* Marcus` keeps his eyes locked on the man above, he slides back, closer to Dias' leg.
<DeathStar> 6* The man holsters his gun. "Send CAssandra my love, boy." 6He hops out through a hole in the roof.
<Marcus`> Cassandra? *he blinks and then drops the gun so that is hangs by the lanyard. he lifts up the leg and moves over to Dias, trying to help him up*
<Setsuna`> Em> *blinks* "Zephy? Crazy?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias rolls onto his back and he looks over at Marcus. 1"Call the medics..."
<DeathStar> <Pope> You should get out more.
<Cassandra`> Now then...no more business...
<Marcus`> Give me your phone. I don't have one. *he lifts Dias up, placing his head under one of Dias' shoulders and begins helping him walk towards the exit*
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sits in his command center, musing, and ignoring Angela's messages.
<DeathStar> -End Part 1-
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I need my leg you idiot...6He taps his pockets, fishing out his phone and begins dialing 911.
<DeathStar> 1 minute break
<Setsuna`> "... I need to spike your tea some time."
<Setsuna`> Laaag ;.;

<DeathStar> -Begin Part 2-
* Chad`Winters is now known as Shiva`
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
* Setsuna` is now known as Ariel`
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits in the council room with the various Ambassadors so they can talk about across the board trade negotations and other issues.
<Angela> * Elayne sits back, listening to some of the others talk.
<Angela> * Kieran watches Darien.
* Myria` sitting there in full costume once again...
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> The Tsivrixsh Empire requests that the Erusians lower their price down by another 1000 crredits. You are unfairly taxing our goods.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans back, pinching his nose.
<Xanatos> <Theron> *He stands behind Arhnya, his arms crossed.*
<Shiva`> 6Loki leans back in his chair. 1"All I'm saying is that the planet Nygrl is going to have a boom on their Owara Fruit this season."
* Shiva` leans back in the chair, looking over at Kat. She takes a bite out of her apple.
<Ariel`> *sits in ops, glad not to be a diplomat
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Don't you have somewhere to be, Shiva?
<Shiva`> Loki's taking care of it. 6She holds the apple out to Kat.
* Xanatos whistles as he walks through the hallsways, his left eye locked onto his datapad, with his right eye watching where he is going.
<Myria`> ... ... ... *is silent for a time then* ...Arhn Arhnya will speak with her own voice...
<Angela> * Elayne eyes Myria
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits up in surprise. The Ridarium Ambassador stares impassively. Shretrav seems taken back
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina reaches over and somehow takes a bite out of it without taking it
<Shiva`> 6Loki eyes the Erusian Ambassador. 1"So she finally decides to speak.
<Shiva`> Cute trick. 6She winks at her.
<DeathStar> <Ridarium> Perhaps we should mark this day on our datapads.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina licks her lips. "Yum."
<Shiva`> <Loki> I like how you think. 6He points at the Ridarium.
<Angela> Kieran> "...The Speaker of the Guardians speaks from the shadows of beyond..."
<Xanatos> *Theron eyes the Ridarium and Loki.
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> Very well. What about the tax?
* Terra sits in the bar
<Myria`> ...regarding the matter of taxation, the Erus Ascendancy is willing to lower tariffs if the Tsivirxsh Empire temporarily lowers shipments into the Ascendancy until the market adjusts to the new opened trap.
* Xanatos slides into the bar and holds a hand up to Terra. "Yo, can you get me a turkey sandwich to go?"
<DeathStar> <Ridiarum> They bleed you for money anyway!
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> That is acceptable, Ambassador Arhnya
<Terra> "Sure can!" *hands one over*
<Shiva`> <Loki> Well they are still recovering from a very costly war...6He taps his chin.
* Xanatos smirks. "So how's your day been?" he glances around at the nearly empty bar. "Lunch rush must be killing you."
<Angela> Kieran> "...The song of peace is heard between the GUardians and the Warriors..."
<Myria`> The Ascendancy thanks you, Ambassador Shretrav.
<DeathStar> <Ridarium> Will someone shut that Vapaad up?
<Terra> "Oh yeah, the discussions are doing a lot for my profits."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis meditates in the garden, her eyes closed as she concentrates.
<Shiva`> <Loki> I'd love to hear the song of silence from the metal tin can. Who's with me? 6He looks around
<Xanatos> *Theron gets a proud look on his face, but quickly masks it.
<DeathStar> <Darien> The council notes the decision between the Erusians and the Tsivrixsh. 6He marks it down.
<Shiva`> So how are the checks ups doing? 6She asks boredly
<DeathStar> <Katrina> What check ups?
<Shiva`> I thought everyone had to get their head checked out monthyl.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh, those. Not for another week or two.
* Xanatos smiles. "Well, they should be getting out in a little while. Anyway, i'll see you later. Busy busy, you know." He pays and then waves lightly as he moves to step out.
<Shiva`> You could classify Xanatos as no longer retarded that way he loses his aid.
<Terra> "See you."
<Angela> Elayne> "The Vertex still hasn't met with the Tsivrixsh or the Erusians, we would like to arrange a time soon."
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> IF you wish to speak, do so now.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances up.
<Shiva`> Shretrav, The Cartel would love to have access to the resort planet of Priama IV.
<Shiva`> NRP: Loki
* Xanatos moves through the halls again, carrying his bagged lunch.
<Angela> Elayne> "We seek trades, we're interested in the metal alloys you use in the creation of your armor, as well, we would like further access to the trade routes in your territories, we have medical technology to offer amongst other interests."
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav gives her attention to Loki. "For what purpose?"
<Shiva`> <Loki> Why for vacation of course. I hear it's a wonderful planet that gives off a beautiful blue green tint right before dusk.
<Xanatos> *Theron leans over and whispers to Arhnya.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Funny.
<Shiva`> ...Do you think Erevis get's pay checks now for being his girlfriend?
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> Resort planets in my empire are not what you would find relaxing. 6She shows her sharp teeth
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Behave.
<Shiva`> Poo...6She pouts.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'm going to do some training. Later, shiva. 6She kisses her cheek and hops up, moving off.
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> As for our metal alloys, we are not interested in giving them out.
* Myria` nods slightly...
<Shiva`> <Loki> Really? A shame...Than The Cartel would like to have access to the Desert Planet of Cirsa Prime to mine the silica on the planet.
<Angela> Elayne> "We still hold interest in your trade routes."
<Xanatos> *Theron straitens up and remains his stoic stance.
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> We will not allow mining of our planets. But I will consider the Cartel interest in trade.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien marks this all down.
<DeathStar> 6* The Ridarium munches on a rock.
<Shiva`> <Loki> If we were to give you 20% off the profit of each Imperial Ton?
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> I believe my statement was quite clear, Cartel peddler.
<Shiva`> <Loki> Than we would like to purchase the silica from said planet.
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> I will consider your request and get back to you promptly.
* Angela looks at Shre, still waiting for an answer on trade routes.
<Angela> *ELayne
* Angela is now known as Elayne
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav answered. She jsut said Cartel instead of the Vertex
<Shiva`> <Loki> I look forward to it.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Any other agendas? 6The Ridarium responds by eating another rock
* Xanatos passes Kat and just holds up a hand to her.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina isn't near the civilian deck ring
* Xanatos doesn't then, instead he stops by the garden and glances in to Erevis.
<Shiva`> <Loki> Hmm...I do believe that I've fufilled my current duties
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> I am satisfied.
<Xanatos> *Erevis, in her meditation would notice movement around her.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Then this meeting is over.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien closes it out
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't seem to react.
* Shiva` sighs boredly as she takes another bite out of her apple
* Elayne sighs and sits abck, looking up at the cieling.
<Shiva`> 6Loki claps his hands together and begins gathering his documents
<DeathStar> 6* Darien gets up, grabs his log, and hurries out before something like a galactic war occurs
<DeathStar> 6* The Ridarium lumbers to his feet and shoves out
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav calmly stands, gathering her papers.
<Xanatos> *Theron awaits Myria's movement before he makes a move.
* Xanatos frowns and just sets the bag down in front of her and then turns to walk away.
<Shiva`> 6Loki glances over at Shretrav. 1"So these resorts of your's than...They're more of a...training grounds then?
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> Yes. We find fighting to be relaxing.
* Myria` rises and then turns to leave the meeting room.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hurries along and quickly ducks into Ops.
<Xanatos> *Theron follows her.
<Shiva`> <Loki> They say that you can tell what a person is thinking when their fists connects with you. Is this true?
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> I would be obliged to punch you to test that legend.
* Elayne gets up and quietly walks out, adjusting the shawl over her shoulders covered in odd writing.
<Ariel`> *looks up* "Hey."
<Shiva`> 6Loki throws his hands up, waving them frantically. 1"You misunderstand, I'm far from the fighting type."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Hello. Here's the offical logbook. 6He puts it up in the secure safe
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> A pity.
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav turns and steps out
* Xanatos almost bumps into Shretrav but hops back, spinning around her. "Oh Pardon Me. Pardon me."
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav's red eyes stare at Xanatos.
* Xanatos holds up both of his hands in a peace gesture as he backs away. "Forgive my clumbsy-ness."
<Ariel`> Hiding out?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Hiding here at ops? I'm not hiding. This is where I run the station.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... though Kieran does have the tendacy to want to have an after-meeting talk. Too bad he's not allowed in here.
* Myria` heads back toward her quarters...
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav continues to eye him
<Ariel`> *just nods*
<Elayne> * Kieran waits outside for him...
* Xanatos rubs the back of his head and spins around a corner, moving off.
<Ariel`> Not hiding
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits down in his seat.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Right. I'm working.
<Xanatos> *Theron glances to Myria as they reach her room. "Well that went better than last time."
<Shiva`> 6Loki grabs has stuff and moves out of the meeting room.
<Myria`> ...yes...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks around, boredly. "So, uh, anything to do?"
<Xanatos> <Theron> I told you that you could do it.
* Myria` removes her mask and then takes a deep breath...
<Ariel`> other than work?
<DeathStar> <Darien> No, no, regarding work. After all, I'm working. Not hidinhg.
* Xanatos steps in ops holding up his datapad. "Presents around. I have weekly security reports. Who wants em?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien says nothing.
<Ariel`> He does.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ...
<DeathStar> <Darien> I hate you, Ariel.
* Xanatos stops and looks from Darien to Ariel. "Sir?" he extends the datapad out towards him.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien snatches it with a snarl. "This had better be in Basic this time."
<Elayne> * Kieran hovers outside ops.
<Shiva`> Loki moves down the hallway and towards his room.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien opens the report. "And why the hell are all your exploits in the first person?"
<Ariel`> Why don't we have a bckdoor?
<Xanatos> ....cause I thought it would be much more dramatic in first person?
* Shiva` sighs and stands up, she adjusts her hair and starts walking
<Xanatos> <Theron> Are you alright?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Day 1, I walked around the hallways, making sure everything was safe. Talked to the plant. Checked on Erevis in the store. Ate a sandwich. Checked on Erevis again. Man, she's hot. 6He reads outloud,.
<Myria`> ...just...a little tense...
<Xanatos> I did put the she's hot part!
<Ariel`> ......
<Xanatos> NRP: didn't*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Then who did?
<Xanatos> <Theron> I could give you a massage if you request it.
<Xanatos> Probably one of my ensigns...they think playing jokes on me is funny.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't see why you need the help.
* Xanatos sighs. "Fine. Next time it'll be in third person. And why are you just reading my reports? I think some of my guards stopped a serious fight in the civilian sector."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Because your reports remind me why I'm in command.
<Myria`> ...ok.
<Xanatos> *Theron steps behind Myria and gently begins to massage her shoulders. "Just relax. You're doing wonderful."
<Xanatos> Aw. Now that really hurts.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't worry. You're here to make me look good.
<Xanatos> Then i'm doing an awesome job aren't I?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances at Ariel.
<Ariel`> ......
<Xanatos> Oh. Psst Darien. *he slides up and whispers to him* Ariel hates me.
<Myria`> ..thank you...
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, I believe half the station does.
* Xanatos frowns. "Well it's not my fault."
<DeathStar> <Darien> The only reason the other half doesn't hate you is because yuo haven't run into them yet.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Anything for you my lady. It is my job afterall to make sure you're comfortable.
<Xanatos> Oh don't worry. I will eventually. *he says with a nod*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I believe you.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances at ARiel. "I'm still shocked you haven't made Erevis break up with him yet."
<Shiva`> 6Loki slides into his room, locking it behind him. He moves over to his datapad and turns it on, he then glances over at a box on the side.
<Xanatos> H-hey. You wouldn't do that would you Ariel?
<Ariel`> ...I'm surprised she hasnt on her own
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina works out in the training room, punching and kicking the training drones around. She works up a good sweat.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, she is pretty clueless.
<Xanatos> ...don't talk about her like that Darien...she just doesn't understand certain things.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's your one advantage.
<Xanatos> Yeah well...you're not very nice.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'll give you that.
<Ariel`> ......
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans forward. "So, Xanatos, kissed her yet?"
* Xanatos eyes Darien and steps back. "Is..your station still intact?"
<Ariel`> *TRIES to ignore this
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods once. "Good."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien seems to be doing it for Ariel's sake, since he keeps glancing at her
<Xanatos> Good? *he glances between the two* I have the deepest respect for Erevis...
<DeathStar> <Darien> Do you plan to kiss her soon? 6He asks, glancing out into the hallway to see if Kieran is there
* Myria` sighs and lets him rub her shoulders...
<Xanatos> ...I don't know.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, you know.
<Xanatos> *Theron works his way to her mid-back, doing his best to work out the muscles.
<Xanatos> ...no i really don't. I don't think that far ahead.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's why you know.
<DeathStar> <Darien> IF you thought that far ahead, you'd know you two wouldn't make it.
<Xanatos> ...How do you know?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Because I can see a train wreck coming.
<Elayne> * Kieran appears to be gone.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sends a lookalike Darien - an ensign - to see if Kieran jumps him.
<Xanatos> Well it'll probably be someone elses fault because i've been doing my best to keep her satisfied. I don't want to screw this up.
<Myria`> ...I'm ok now.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes, but you won't be satisfied with what makes her satisfied.
<Xanatos> *Theron instantly pulls his hands back and steps back as well. "Alright. Anything else, my lady?"
<Myria`> ...yes...one more thing...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hands Ariel a piece of candy.
<Xanatos> Then I wont be satisfied. *he notes as if that was nothing*
<Xanatos> <Theron> Yes?
<Ariel`> ...what?
<Myria`> A...delicious Omega Coke!
<Elayne> * Kieran does not appear...
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's candy.
<Xanatos> *Theron eyes her. "I went to the brig over your last incident. Give it a rest."
<Myria`> ...pay for it this time...?
<Ariel`> Um... thank you. That was random
<Xanatos> <Theron> ...very well. *he bows his head lightly and then steps out, moving for the Omega Coke*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Just trying to keep you off balance. You're always too quiet and stiff.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien goes back to reading Xans' report now.
<Shiva`> 6Shiva moves to the garden and plops down in a chair.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't react to Shiva.
* Xanatos rubs the back of his head. "Busy day, Ariel? I mean. Ma'am?"
<Xanatos> *Shiva would see flowers around Erevis, and a brown bag sitting in front of her.
<Ariel`> These diplomats are more unsettling than the dark ones
<DeathStar> <Darien> Really?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks up from reading Xan's adventures.
* Xanatos smiles lightly. "At least with the dark ones you know what to expect, right?"
<Shiva`> 6Sadly Shiva isn't looking at Erevis, she's not an obsessive cracko like Xanatos
* Elayne steps into the Garden, walking along, a distant look on her face.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't react to Elayne.
<Xanatos> *Theron steps up to the Omega Store.
<Xanatos> *Elayne would see flowers around Erevis, and a brown bag sitting in front of her.
<Myria`> Mmmmm...Omega Cokes...
* Elayne stops and watches the spectacle for a bit.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You see, Ariel, that's why you need to losen up and be crazy sometimes. IF you find a predictable enemy to be more comforting than some childish ambassadors, you're really in trouble.
* Xanatos blinks and glances between the two. "Well...i'll be getting back to my duties." He turns and steps away.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the time. "Oh, it's lunch time."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands up.
<Ariel`> ... *blinks*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps out of the ops.
<Xanatos> *Theron purchases two omega cokes and walks back towards Myria's room. Within a moment his in inside, holding his newly aquired treasures.
<Myria`> ...ohhhh...thank you, thank you, thank you!
<Xanatos> *Theron holds them both up into the air. "Wait."
<Myria`> ...huh?
* Elayne kneels down and checks on Erevis, "You okay?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says nothing.
<Xanatos> <Theron> You get one for doing so well in the meeting. And you'll get another if you find your games and bring them to me.
<Myria`> ...wh....why?
* Xanatos moves through the hallways, arms pulled behind his back.
<Elayne> "Erevis...?"
<Xanatos> <Theron> Because I do not believe that you have stopped playing them.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says nothing.
<Myria`> I have! *flails her arms* ...its boring now..
* Elayne pokes her gently.
<Xanatos> <Theron> ...very well. *he reaches both of them out to her*
<DeathStar> 6* Elayne's finger is suddenly psionically grabbed and snapped.
* Myria` moves to take them.
* Elayne gasps a bit in pain and groans.
<Elayne> "What was that for!!!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis opens her eyes, blinking once, looking dazed.
* Elayne stands, holding her finger as she straightens the bones of her finger, "You need to watchh that!:
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...? I apologize.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't sound like she means it as she stands.
<Xanatos> *Theron lets her take them and watches her for a moment. "Anything else?"
<Elayne> "Empty apologies mean nothing."
<Myria`> Nuh-uh!
* Elayne gives her a look.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6Her green eyes flash angerily.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then do not touch people who do not invite it.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Alright then. I'm going to go get some lunch. You may accompany me if you wish.
* Shiva` glances over her shoulder at Erevis and Elayne.
* Elayne matches her, not afraid. "That's an overreaction."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will show you an 'overreaction'. 6She lifts herh and
* Xanatos stops and leans against the wall, his pulls up another datapad and begins to look over it idley.
<Myria`> Mmmm? *drinking*
<Shiva`> 6Loki slides around a turn. 1"If it isn't our illoustrious Security Guard, Xanatos Durran."
<Xanatos> <Theron> Food. Yummy. *he motions*
* Xanatos glances up and glances at Loki. "Chief Security Guard."
<Myria`> ...ummm...I don't know...
<Shiva`> <Loki> My humblest apologies. 6He bows deeply. Than stands upright, pulling out his deck of cards, shufflign them. 1"You look troubled."
<Elayne> "What's with the attitude? Threatening me now?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am only making your words true.
<Xanatos> Job's stressful. Tell me something. What's with the cards, if you don't mind me asking?
<Elayne> "I'm sorry, but breaking someone's finger is an overreaction to being poked out of concern."
* Elayne looks at her coldly.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I did not intend to break your finger. You should not touch someone who is meditating.
<Shiva`> <Loki> I enjoy them...6He fans them out. 1"Pick one."
* Xanatos points to one of-centered to the right.
<Elayne> "You're certainly not sorry for doing it."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I advise you to leave me now.
<Elayne> "I advise you to watch the attitude."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis suddenly psionically shoves Elayne.
* Elayne falls back and glares at her, "Right."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Go elsewhere.
* Elayne stands, "Time for you to pay for your irresonsibility." *she turns and walks away, heading to station ops*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits down again, going back to her meditating.
<Shiva`> 6Loki pulls out it and flips it. A picture of the fool appearing. 1"Interesting."
<Xanatos> Accurate. *he notes boredly*
* Elayne walks to ops, looking around for someone.
<DeathStar> 6* Only Ariel is there.
<Elayne> "Ariel?"
<Xanatos> <Theron> It's now good to remain shut up.
<Ariel`> Yes?
<Elayne> "I've come to register a complaint, and press charges."
<Shiva`> 6Loki taps his chin then shuffles the cards and cuts them, flipping the one on top, a picture of a man weighing something on it. 1"This could be troubling..."
<Xanatos> What's that?
<Myria`> Ok....
<Ariel`> Those really should go through security
<Elayne> "I feel the chief of security would have conflict."
<Shiva`> <Loki> Well it could mean you're going to have to make a decision....6He flips the card back over then begins shuffling the cards.
<Xanatos> *Theron nods and steps outside, waiting for Myria to follow him.
<Myria`> Oh! I need to change!
<Xanatos> I make decisions everyday.
<Elayne> "Actually, thinking about it, I need to speak to Darien."
* Myria` scurries to her bedroom.
<Xanatos> *Therons sighs and just waits patiently.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien ponders what sandwich to eat.
<Ariel`> You may wish to see a doctor about your finger
<Shiva`> 6Loki stops shuffling and flips the top card over. A picture of a man looking down at people on it. 1"Oooh even better..."
* Elayne pulls out a compress, wrapping it around her finger, "I already am." She looks at her seriously, "Get me Darien."
* Xanatos tilts his head. "Does that mean i'm going to get promoted?"
<Shiva`> <Loki> It's the Judgement card...
<Xanatos> Oh...what does that mean?
<Ariel`> *pages darien about Elayne's issue
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grumbles and walks back to ops.
<Shiva`> <Loki> I'd say you're going to be put into a situation where you're going to have to make a difficult judgment. One that's going to cause you a lot of pain.
<Shiva`> <Loki> Of course, that's if you believe in these pesky things...6He shrugs and slides the deck away.
<Xanatos> Oh I call that Tuesdays.
* Myria` finally comes out in normal clothes.
<Shiva`> She's going to press charges on you...6She calls out to Erevis as she sits on the bench, facing away from her
<Xanatos> *Theron nods and her and smiles. "You will enjoy the bar I believe." He turns and begins walking towards it.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks into the ops. "Yes, Ambassador?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<Ariel`> *looks to darien
<Myria`> Ok. *follows*
<Xanatos> So has your stay on the station been pleasant? *he decides to make idle chat*
<Shiva`> It's typical behavior for someone who's weak...
* Elayne looks at him, and holds up her finger, "There's more, I wish to press charges on the one called Erevis. For Assault."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis' eyes slide open to eye Shiva.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Explain everything that happened.
<Xanatos> *Theron steps into the bar and moves over to a table. "Good evening, Terra."
<Elayne> "I was walking in the garden and saw Erevis, sittig there in an odd position and noted shallow breathing, I watched for a bit as she did not seem in distress, and asked if she was okay."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods.
<Elayne> "As she did not respond, I leaned down and poked her, gently, in order to see if she was okay, and she used her mental abilities to break my finger."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I see. On purpose?
* Myria` follows after Theron...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien definitely makes a point not to look in Ariel's direction
<Xanatos> *Theron motions Myria to a seat.
<Shiva`> You've got quite the conundrum on your hands now...
<Elayne> "Naturally I was upset, she apologised, in a very hollow fashion and she claimed she did not intend to do it, I called her on not actually being sorry, and she threatened me, then shoved me with her powers." *she lifts her shawl to expose her shoulders, which contain large bruises*
<Ariel`> *watches Elayne
<DeathStar> 6* Darien scratches the side of his head. "Alright. ... I'll have this dealt with."
<Terra> "Hey."
<Elayne> "Thank you. I do not wish to press for trouble, but those powers and that attitude are dangerous in combination. Had it been a curious Vapaad..."
<Xanatos> <Theron> How has your day been?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Of course. 6Darien calls some of Xan's security agents to get Erevis
* Myria` hops into a seat.
<DeathStar> <Darien> We'll have her put into the brig while we determine what sort of charges your government wants to pres.
<Shiva`> <Loki> Rather boring on the station...
<Terra> "Slow."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lifts her head up, as if knowing something is coming.
<Elayne> "She should be thankful I'm NOT a Vapaad in that case." *she sighs and fixes her shawl*
<Xanatos> <Theron> I see. Well now you have customers. *he smiles and glances to Myria* Lady Myria, what would you have?
* Xanatos eyes his datapad and then curses. "Later." He holds a hand up to Loki and moves off down the hall.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis rises, as if waiting for someone to come. And she doesn't seem to be waiting to jsut surrender.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I better get to the garden. 6He steps out.
<Shiva`> 6Loki looks at Xanatos running off.
<DeathStar> 6* The two security guards arrive at the garden.
<Shiva`> You going to stop them from arresting you now? 6She tilts her head curiously
<Myria`> Ummm....I don't know...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> They are foolish if they think I will let them lock me up.
<Shiva`> Did you not assault someone?
<Xanatos> <Theron> What about...chicken? *he says, eyeing the menu*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If I desired to assault someone, they would not walk off to complain.
<Myria`> Ok...
<Shiva`> It's a shame they don't see it that way...6She eyes her nails. 1"It'll only hurt you in the long run..."
* Xanatos slides into the garden, clearly he came in a rush. "Whoa whoa whoa. What's going on here?"
<DeathStar> <Guards> We're under orders to arrest your girlfriend, sir!
<Xanatos> *Theron nods. "Excellent. We'll have some chicken and some waters, Terra."
* Xanatos blinks. "For what, exactly?"
<DeathStar> <Guards> Assaulting an ambassador! ... do you want to handle it, sir?
* Terra gets some for the pair
<Terra> "There you go."
* Xanatos blinks and pauses. "Explain. What exactly happened."
<DeathStar> 6* Teh guards shrug. Lke they know.
<Xanatos> *Theron smiles to Terra. "Thank you." He pays her.
* Xanatos turns to look at Erevis now. "Erevis. What happened?"
* Elayne sighs, "I'm going to go have myself checked with medical."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says nothing.
<Xanatos> Erevis. What happened. *he repeats*
<Shiva`> I saw what happened...6She looks over at Xanatos.
* Elayne looks to Ariel, "Good day, Dragoon Ariel." *she walks off*
* Xanatos ignores Shiva for the moment, just holding a finger up to her, meaning to hold on.
<Xanatos> I can't help you if you don't explain to me what happened, Erevis.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not need your aid.
<Terra> "So, how did it go?"
<Xanatos> ...Erevis. Did you attack an ambassador?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If shoving someone is an attack, than yes.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien arrives, taking a few breaths.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Much better than before. *he says with a nod*
<Xanatos> And that's all you did. Shove someone?
<Terra> "Good to hear."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says nothing else. She eyes Darien, and her eyes narrow.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Xanatos, for everyone's sake, get her to the brig.
* Xanatos slides his head to Darien. "I just want to know what happened."
<DeathStar> <Darien> She broke elayne's finger, then psionically hit her in the chest hard enough to bruise her.
<Shiva`> On Erevis' defense, I'm sure she didn't know that the Atlean bone structure was far more brittle than a human beings.
* Xanatos stares at Darien for a moment then glances at Shiva, then finally looks to Erevis. "Is this true?"
<Shiva`> She could use more milk in her diet.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It was her own error to touch me in my meditation.
* Shiva` glances at the back of her hand.
<Xanatos> That doesn't matter. You can't just go around breaking peoples fingers for bothering you.
<Xanatos> *Theron nods once again. "Oh this Chicken is wonderful." he says, taking a bite.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am about to break several more fingers if you think I will be arrested.
* Myria` eats without saying anything.
<Xanatos> If you resist then you will be brought into the brig. I will not let you harm innocent people merely because they bothered you. It's not right. And you didn't used to be this violent.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ......... Do what you must.
<DeathStar> 6* DArien rubs his face. "Xanatos, do your goddamn job.:
<Xanatos> Darien. I'm trying to avoid a fight. Because if that happens, then things will go to worse very quickly.
<DeathStar> <Darien> She's clearly not going to the brig without a fight.
* Xanatos frowns and glances at Erevis. "..." He takes a warning step forward.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Do you like it Miss Myria?
<Shiva`> I hear accidents happen all the time. 6She looks at Xanatos now
<Myria`> ...its ok...
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis raises her hand a bit up.
<Xanatos> Erevis. Don't do this. Please. I'm begging you. Just come along.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No.
<Xanatos> Please? This is my last time asking.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will not be caged for shoving an annoying female creature.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lifts her hand up fully now.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grabs his gun, flicking the settings.
<Elayne> * Kaltar chooses that exact moment to wander into the garden, making an odd humming sound as she floats along.
* Shiva` glances at Darien. 1"Oh I bet you've been waiting for this moment.
<Xanatos> You're not allowed to harm others, regardless of how annoying they are. If that's the case some people would have tried to kill me by now. You're not being caged. We can lock you into your room until things blow over.
<DeathStar> <Darien> She is proving my point.
<DeathStar> <DArien> It's the brig, Xanatos, not her room
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Step away, Xanatos Durran.
<Shiva`> What's more important to you Xanatos, your girlfriend...or your job? 6She looks at him.
* Xanatos scowls. "No Erevis. You're breaking the law. And the law is all important. I thought you off all people would understand that."
<Xanatos> <Theron> ...O...ok. *he frowns and resumes eating his chicken*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands her ground, not moving to attack, since XAnatos has not stepped forward.
* Xanatos rubs his neck and steps off to the right, keeping his distance but moving around to her right side.
<Elayne> Kaltar> "...I sense much anger and agression here..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien finishes with the gun, getting ready.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis calmly seems to be waiting.
<Elayne> Kaltar> "...Friends, is a conflict occuring here...?"
<Elayne> * Kaltar floats a little closer.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Leave the area, Shiva - Kaltar.
<Elayne> Kaltar> *makes a sad sound* "...Yes the Starr..."
* Myria` just sighs and chews...
* Xanatos then stops when he is to the immediate right of Erevis. He rotates his neck, a popping sound can be heard. "..."
<Xanatos> <Theron> Is something wrong, Miss?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns to face him.
<Shiva`> You'd think Ariel would be here for this...1She hops up slowly and begins walking off.
<DeathStar> <Darien> She's being smart and letting us do our job, Shiva. Do the same.
* Xanatos rests his eyes on Erevis. They have a look of regret in them.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis shows no emotions but anger.
<Xanatos> Too stubborn for your own good. *he nods sadly*
<Shiva`> I'm sure Ariel can quell the beast...6She hops out of the room, looking neither happy or angry
<Terra> "Something wrong?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am who I am. You wished to see what my emotions led toward - this is your result.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will not be caged.
<Xanatos> Yes. But you seem to be stuck on the emotion of anger. Instead of experiencing them all. You focus on one. And you picked the wrong one.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis waits for Xanatos to make his move.
* Xanatos points up. "Watch out."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't look
<Xanatos> *A pod of dirt falls towards her head.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis psionically slaps it away.
* Xanatos suddenly tenses and rushes forward.
<DeathStar> 6* A psionic wave hits Xanatos backwards
* Xanatos twists in the air and lands on his feet, sliding across the grass. He leans forward and runs in again.
<DeathStar> 6* A psionic wave hits Xanatos backwards again
* Xanatos repeats the process. But stops this time. He pulls up his pistols and slides the settings to stun. "Damnit Erevis." he says with a frown, then pulls up the pistols and begins firing stunning shots towards her.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis uses a psionic shield
<Xanatos> *Suddenly vines lurch up from the ground and lash out to attempt to restrain Erevis and jerk her down toward the ground.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis' eyes widen in surprise as vines grab her, but she doesn't fall, instead using her hyperspace strength to stand. Her skin begins to get a faint red.
* Xanatos comes in from above, releases two charged shots in an attempt to break the psi-shield as he falls.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis' psionic strength just increases as she taps into her strenght
* Shiva` leans against the training room door.
* Xanatos lands on the shield and pounds on it with the but of his guns.
* Ariel` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis grabs Xanatos psionically and breaks his arm.
* Xanatos grunts, his eyes narrows as he jumps back, his left arm going limp. "Amazing." he notes coldly. The vines, tighten slightly.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis winces in pain, herb reathing labored already
* Shiva` glances over at Kat. 1"So Erevis is resisting arrest and is fighting Xanatos to the death right now."
* Xanatos just stands there, tilting his head.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You're a real comedian. 6She punches a bag.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis falls to one knee, still straining her whole body
<Shiva`> This is too good to lie about.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pauses, glancing at shiva.
* Xanatos releases another charged shot at the psi-shield. And then another after he has the time to charge another one, trying to break it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis just focuses on her shield at this point, not having the energy to attack
* Shiva` just shrugs
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... Why?
* Xanatos keeps up the attack, hoping he can wear her down as the vines keep up their squeeze.
<Xanatos> Please Stop this. Please.
<Shiva`> She apparently broke Elayne's finger because she poked her while she was meditating. I'm sure Erevis didn't mean to since controlling psionics on different races can be difficult.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis closes her eyes, and her breathing slows even more. she doesn't seem to be listening anymore.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> She broke her finger?
* Xanatos remains attacking, he backs up slightly. Waiting for what he believes to come next.
* Myria` has left #taw
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis slumps a bit.
<Shiva`> She apologized....well with how she apologizes...Then Elayne provoced her more and she shoved her. Nice bruises.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ........ 6She seems to have mixed emotions on all of this
<Shiva`> I never thought Elayne could be such a callous bitch.
* Xanatos frowns, his gun almost reaching critical point. He holsters it and then takes the other from his left hand and keeps up the attack. "PLEASE!" his voice is pleading, he hates having to do this.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is finally hit by the shots, her body jerking
<DeathStar> <Darien> Jesus Effin' Christ.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Wow...
<Shiva`> <EnsignChrist> Yes, sir?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Erevis should have just gone with it
<DeathStar> <Darien> Get her to the brig.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Sorted it out later.
* Xanatos frowns, and holsters that pistols as well. He moves over to Erevis and leans out. "....i'm so sorry." he whispers, though he knows she can't hear it.
<Shiva`> Something about being caged...
<Elayne> * Elayne sits in her chambers now, holding a ceremonial dagger in her hand, glaring at it.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, I'm sorry, that's just stupid.
<Shiva`> Well she was practically raped....6She looks off at the corner of the room.
* Xanatos slides out some cuffs and somehow manages to get them on her. Then the vines retract as the ensigns lift her up and take her away.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I know it was horrific and whatnot, but she needs to move on and adjust to society.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien holsters his gun.,
<Shiva`> I think that's where the stubborn part comes in.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I think it's her thinking she's some sort of god.
<Shiva`> That might not help matters.
* Xanatos slowly stands up, frowning still as they take her out. "...never dreamed I would have to do this..." He mumbles.
<DeathStar> <Darien> It was only a matter of time.
<Xanatos> Then you shouldn't have allowed her aboard. *he notes, moving to get his arm checked out*
<DeathStar> <Darien> You shouldn't have thought you could treat her like a real girl.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sighs. "What sort of charges will be pressed?"
* Xanatos turns on Darien, glaring. "Don't you care."
<Xanatos> NRP: Dare*
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's true and you know it.
<Shiva`> Assault most likely...And now resisting arrest, another case of assault against an officer...
<Xanatos> ...no it's not. It's people like you that keep her from being what she can. *he turns and leaves*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> She'll be lucky if all they do is remove her from the station.
<DeathStar> <Darien> And it's people like you who think you can make her into something she's not.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien shouts that last bit.
<Shiva`> Oh well...6She eyes her watch. "Well I gotta meeting to attend to
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... what do you think about it?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances at Shiva.
* Xanatos storms off, a deep scowl on his face.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien kicks some dirt. "Thank God Ariel doesn't communicate much, or I'd be catching hell."
<Shiva`> It'll take a miracle for her to get out of this easily.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I mean her being arrested.
* Xanatos steps into the med-bay. "Fix my arm." he says.
<DeathStar> 6* The doctors nominate Peacemaker
<Shiva`> You want the truth?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yes.
* Elayne looks to her console as it lights up, a transmission from a Vertex ship, an Altean with straight spikes of dark skin flowing down his face, "Ambassador Hianule?"
<Shiva`> That Xanatos will come running to you for help.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I mean --- I don't know if I'm happy or not about herb eing arrested. Does that make me a bad person?
<Shiva`> That makes you human
<Terra> <Peacemaker> *nods, and gets to work on Xan's arm*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yay for humanity.
<Terra> <Peacemaker> "What happened here?"
* Elayne looks at the screen, "Yes?"
<Shiva`> You have a right to see it from both points Kat. From someone who's been hurt by her and who cares about Xan.
<Xanatos> I don't want to talk about it.
<Terra> <Peacemaker> "... I see."
<Elayne> Atlean> "We've heard of the incident, we will send a Justicator shortly."
<Elayne> "Very well."
<Xanatos> How long till I can use it?
<Shiva`> To put it simply, the only way Erevis will come out of this is if Elayne and Xanatos drops the charges.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Something tells me this won't happen.
<Terra> "A few days."
<Shiva`> Oh you know Xanatos will.
<Terra> <Peacemaker> *says that*
<DeathStar> <KAtrina> What about the Vertex?
<Xanatos> Can you speed it up? I'll need to be using it soon.
<Shiva`> The who?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Elayne's people.
<Shiva`> I thought they were the Atleans.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *shrugs*
<Xanatos> *Theron eats his meal and then sees Myria off, turning and moving down the halls.
<Shiva`> Confusing...Oh well. I could always have them blown up.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I think that would cause a war, deare.
<Shiva`> Oh that's right, we're trying to prevent war...I could fill their ship full of flowers.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Poison ivy isn't flowers.
<Shiva`> It might be to them.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Hm.

<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-586.7.1 -1 day later-
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
<DeathStar> 6* Darien drinks rocket fuel, rubbing his temples.
* Shiva` moves up beside Darien and pokes him in the side.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ow. What was that for?
<Shiva`> I was hoping you'd break my finger so I could press charges...6She sighs and takes a seat.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Do you really care about Erevis?
<Shiva`> Do you really care about her?
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't, no. I think she's dangerous
* Xanatos steps into the brig.
<Shiva`> Do we not tend to become what people see us as? 6She glances at him.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits on a bunk in a cell. She looks unwell.
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, if I see you as a skanky ho?
* Xanatos slides over to the cell and looks in at her. "...are you...hurt?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says nothing. The guard speaks up. "She hasn't spoken or eaten since she was put in there, sir. You're wasting your time."
<Shiva`> Well...6She leans over to him, moving in close, her hand sliding up his leg.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'd rather not have you hurt me. 6He takes her hand and moves it off of him. "If you care so much, tell Elayne to drop the charges."
* Xanatos moves over to the guards desk and takes his weapons off and places them on the desk. "Let me in."
<DeathStar> <Guard> If we drop that, she might break our necks and escape.
<Xanatos> ...You can't keep it up and still let me inside?
<Shiva`> She probably see it's as some holy mission to teach Erevis a lesson of morality. I just find it funny that she'd go after her when I've been a bigger bitch...6She tilts her head as she contemplates this
<DeathStar> <Guard> Got to drop the energy field for you to get in.
<Elayne> * Elayne sits in her room, resting.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Maybe she hates being assaulted for no reason?
* Xanatos frowns. "Alright." He puts his weapons back on and movers over to the cell. "Erevis Please talk to me."
<DeathStar> <Guard> But...I guess I could...if you ordered me...with written documentation...
<Shiva`> Maybe Erevis hates being bothered for no reason.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's no reason to bruise someone's chest.
<Xanatos> No point in dying. *he tilts his head.* Please Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos is ignored. She gives no flicker she's even listening
<Shiva`> ...6Shiva taps the counter glancing around. 1"Tell me something Darien...
<DeathStar> <Darien> Alright. When I was a child, I thought like a child. When I grew up, I put aside my childish things.
* Xanatos sighs. "...i'll be back later to check in on her." He tells the guard, turning and stepping out.
<Shiva`> Cute...But that wasn't meant to be answered. If you were to punch a Ridarium what would happen to your hand?
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'd break it.
<Shiva`> Now say you spent your entire life using that amount of force on ridariums and then suddenly had to use it on a me because I made an advance on you. What would happen?
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'd break you?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Xanatos.
<Shiva`> Hah, you wish tiger. But I think you got the point.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That doesn't explain Erevis shoving Elayne.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina steps up and walks along beside him.
<Shiva`> What if Elayne provoced her?
<DeathStar> <DArien> So you're saying if you're bitchy with me and I shove you hard enough to hurt you, that's fine?
* Xanatos slowly moves his eyes over to Katrina. "Kat."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> How are you?
Session Close: Fri Jul 27 00:00:00 2007
Session Start: Fri Jul 27 00:00:00 2007
Session Ident: #taw
<Shiva`> If I provoced you, twisted that dagger in, would you shove me aside?
<Xanatos> Never been better.
<DeathStar> <Darien> No. Because I have self-control
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Xan...
* Xanatos stops and turns to face her. "...I don't know what's going to happen. I'm afraid...for her..."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Maybe you could ask Elayne to drop the charges?
<Xanatos> If I get around Elayne I may just break for finger for acting so childish.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> That won't help anyone, Xanatos.
<Xanatos> Which is why i'm avoiding Elayne.
<Shiva`> So you're saying that it's ok to let someone provoke you without standing up for yourself?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Getting Elayne to drop the charges is the only way you're going to save Erevis. So, if neither of you can show an ounce of self-control, then she might just get thrown out of here forever.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina walks past him and onward.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You know perfectly well what I'm saying, Sevintes.
<DeathStar> <Darien> And convincing me isn't going to change a thing in the world. The ball is with the ATLEANs.
<Shiva`> You're right. She's a dangerous threat, we should hang her now while we still can.
* Xanatos lowers his head, then moves off.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ungh. I'm shocked Erevis hasn't decked YOU
<Shiva`> But you my friend, need another drink. 6She motions for a rocket fuel for Darien
* Xanatos is in front of Elayne's door, he knocks on it.
<Elayne> "Come in."
* Xanatos steps inside. He stares at Elayne for a moment. "I need you to drop the charges on Erevis."
<Elayne> "And why should I do that?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Look. You're an odd one, Shiva. I know you don't like Erevis that much, beacuse your girlfriend hates her. Yet here you are, making an issue over what happened to Erevis.
<Xanatos> Because you should know that this whole incident was turned into a big misunderstanding.
<Shiva`> What can I say? I love live action soaps. 6She smiles to him.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I think you do. I think, deep down, you like this kind of trouble. And you're just making sure we all get the muck up to our knees.
* Elayne looks up at him, "There is a misunderstanding about her attitude?"
<Shiva`> Some things in life are meant to be, and even if we try to change the present to alter the future, only something equally worse will take it's place.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien just grunts. It works for Warren.
* Xanatos stares at her, his jaw clenches. "You scared her, and in a brief moment she lost control of her powers and broke your finger. She said sorry, as I have taught her, and yet you just couldn't accept that. She didn't have...feeling...in her apology. Well guess what? She doesn't feel. That might be why there was no emotion behind her words. You felt the need to persist and she felt threatened so she shoved you away. <cont>
<Xanatos> "You couldn't just accept things and now she's in the brig. She's not in the right, but neither are you."
<Shiva`> Maybe someday you'll get lucky and figure me out on accident..
<DeathStar> <Darien> Only if we're both very drunk.
<Elayne> "That's the excuse you give a small child."
* Terra hands out drinks, listening quietly
<Xanatos> She is a child. At least mentally. You of all people should know that by now.
<Shiva`> Carefuly there cowboy, I'll lost my restraint.
<Elayne> "I should? Why would I know that? I've barely ever spoken to the woman till I chose to attemptt o make friends today."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'll be sure to only be around you sober.
<Elayne> "Look where that got me."
* Shiva` pauses then taps her chin. 1"Let me show you something..." 6She taps her ear piece. 1"Tom Pilot, care to meet me down at Terra's Bar for a drink?"
<DeathStar> 6* Tom Pilot suddenly is in the bar, panting hard
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... The hell?
<DeathStar> <Tom Pilot> YES!
<Xanatos> Then that is your fault. You've been a part of this group for how long? Maybe if you would have been more active in the crew you would have realized that touching makes her uncomfortable.
<Shiva`> Neat trick huh? 6She looks at him. 1"So sad...You lost your eye...How'd that happen?
<DeathStar> <Tom Pilot> Oh, that crafty Vapaad poked me in the eye. 6He shakes a fist at the roof.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... Shiva ... don't..
<Shiva`> Such a tragedy...6She looks over at Darien with concern.
<Elayne> "Why should I be more active in this crew? All I know about you people is those I care about DIE when around you."
<DeathStar> <Tom Pilot> Now I can only enjoy you with half the ability.
* Elayne stares at him coldly.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches the bridge of his nose.
<Shiva`> A Travesty! 6She looks at Darien again, obviously hurt. 1"He can only truely enjoy my with half his abilities."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm sure that's half a gain.
<Shiva`> This man was wronged...But was justice served?
* Xanatos just scoffs. "So it's our fault that your loved ones die doing somethign they believe in? Now who's the one being childish?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> It was an accident!
* Shiva` looks over at Tom. 1"Did the crafty Vapaad apologize to you?
<DeathStar> <Tom Pilot> No.
<DeathStar> <Tom Pilot> It called my eye WEAK!
<DeathStar> 6He shakes a fist at the roof.
<Shiva`> It spit on you while you were already down and then it insulted you even more...My poor Tom Pilot...
<DeathStar> 6* Tom Pilot rests his head on her breasts. "Comfort me."
* Elayne looks down at the knife in her hands, she sighs deeply, "At any rate... it's nto my descision anymore."
<Xanatos> ...What did you do? *he narrows his eyes at her*
<Elayne> "My duty."
* Shiva` pats Tom's head. 1"Who is to blame for this Darien? Tom for having 'weak' eyes. Or the Vapaad for assaulting him?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Tom didn't press charges.
<Shiva`> Tom, you should press charges.
<Xanatos> You know what? My brother died doing this job. Just like yours. But I moved on, I forced myself to accept the loss and keep him in my memories. I didn't get hurt by someone by accident and run to my superiors like some child. Now look, my relationship with Erevis is over. And so here I am, my loved on taken away from me. Because of you. Don't speak to me, don't look at me. Because I hate everything about you."
<DeathStar> <Tom Pilot> What's that?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Sevintes.
<DeathStar> <Darien> This won't help anyone.
* Elayne looks at him impassively, "And you're going to now, in a hypocritical fashion, blame me for losing her."
<Shiva`> Shhh...It's alright Tom. 6She puts his head back down to her chest.
<DeathStar> 6* Tom nuzzles her
<Shiva`> Should justice not be served, even if it's an accident?
<DeathStar> <Darien> You're a bitch. 6He notes tiredly.
<Xanatos> No. I hate you because you're childish actions made me harm her. I blame myself for doing my fucking job. No wonder everyone ignores you. You're pathetic. *he just turns and steps out*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'd stab you, but then I, Kaltar, and Erevis would be in a brig.
<Elayne> "Made you harm her? I made you choose to do that?"
<Shiva`> I am a crafty bitch. Get that right.
* Xanatos is already done, storming down the hall.
<DeathStar> <Darien> This tastes bitter, Terra. 6He shoves his drink aside and walks off.
<Shiva`> So for the sake of galactic peace Darien. You should go use your powers to help...quell this situation since it was an accident.
<DeathStar> <Tom Pilot> Can we have sex?
<Terra> "It's the atmosphere..."
* Elayne shrugs, she looks to the monitor, dialing a number. "If he chooses to act like this, then I'm convinced to leave this to the Justicators."
<Shiva`> No dear...6He puts his face back in her chest.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien knocks on Elayne's door.
<Elayne> "Come in."
* Xanatos steps into the bar and sits down. "Rocket Fuel." he says shortly.
* Terra hands some over. "Rough day?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks in. "I want you to drop the charges. I'll make sure you get that trade route you wanted with Earth."
<Elayne> "...You think this was for some personal gain then?"
* Xanatos grunts and downs the fuel, then motions for another.
<Elayne> "I've now been insulted by two Earth Officials in a row."
<DeathStar> <Darien> No. But if you don't, shiva's going to get Kaltar put in the brig next. We're starting a prescendent that'll bring peace down because you got your finger broked and your feelings shoved.
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, take my offer, or by God, we'll all suffer.
* Shiva` glances over at Xanatos. 1"Things will work out in the end Xanatos, so take it easy."
<Elayne> "There is a problem."
<DeathStar> <Darien> What?
<Elayne> "Vertex has already sent out a Justicator."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Then use your influence to get him to go.
* Xanatos glances at Shiva. "No. Elayne said she can't drop the charges now even if she wanted too. I'm going to end up causing a war. Because by god I'll die before I let them hurt her."
<DeathStar> <Darien> As far as Earth culture is concerned, you press the charges.
* Terra hands more over to Xan
* Elayne considers.
* Xanatos just nods to Terra and downs the next fuel.
<Terra> "... well, shit. That is something to drink over."
<Elayne> "I want something for this. My choice of her punihsment, which I think more then fair."
<DeathStar> <Darien> What do you want her punishment to be?
<Xanatos> Tell me about it. *he motions for another*
* Terra hands one over, sighing
* Shiva` just whistles a tune as she sits there in her chair, Tom resting on her chest
<Elayne> "An apology for shoving me. That is, after Xanatos returns to here and speaks with me one more time. You should be mindful, with an attitude like his, that man is likely to start a war."
* Xanatos downs it as well, this one apparently stinging, he slams his fist down on the bar.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wouldn't be the first time. Done. 6Darien holds out his hand.
* Elayne takes it and shakes. "I am glad they chose you for this position. Angela was confident about you."
* Xanatos stands suddenly and tosses the credits out, he turns and moves for the training room.
<DeathStar> <Darien> The trade offer still stands. For the pain.
<Elayne> "We'll take it."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods and says goodbye, then steps out, grabbing his comm and getting Xanatos. "Durran."
<Terra> "I knew this peace wouldn't last..."
* Xanatos stops his hand just moment before hitting the bag, he pulls up the comm. "...Durran, here."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I got Erevis out of the charges. But there's two things that has to be done first.
<Shiva`> Oh it's fine Terra.
* Xanatos arches a brow. "What?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> You go see Elayne first. I'll talk about the other condition. Then, you and I are going to have a long talk about that woman.
<DeathStar> <Darien> And that woman means Erevis
<Terra> "What does that mean?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sits by Shiva, and hugs her suddenly.
<Xanatos> <Comm> I'm braindead, i'm not stupid. And I don't think you want me going to Elayne right now. I've had 3 rocket fuels in a matter of minutes.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I knew the bitch stance was all an act.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Then I guess Erevis rots in a cell until punishment. 6He clicks off.
* Shiva` goes to say something than stops, eyeing Shiva then looks over at Kat. 1"Not to be rude dear, but Tom's drooling on your boobs.
* Xanatos growls and turns, walking back towards Elayne's room.
<Shiva`> *Eyeing KAt
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You can buy me a new uniform shirt.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina suddenly kisses Shiva on the lips right in front of Terra. Tom stares and faints.
<Shiva`> Now sshhh, don't tell anyone. 6She smiles down at her. 1"Plus I was being a bitch when I got him to do it.
* Xanatos knocks on Elayne's door once again.
<Elayne> "Come in."
* Shiva` pauses then kisses back
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Thank you. 6She says when she leans back, then winks at Terra. "Wine."
* Xanatos steps in again. "I'm supposed to see you?" He pauses, "And a fair notice. I've had some alcohol, since I didn't realize I would be performing duties anymore today."
* Shiva` glances down at Tom. 1"Poor guy....Only got to see half of it."
<Elayne> "Yes. I'd first like to apologise for my words about Lukutus and Ceres."
<Elayne> "You were right, they died for what they believed in."
* Xanatos pauses and listens for a moment.
<Xanatos> I shouldn't have projected my anger onto you. I'm sorry as well.
<Elayne> "It's alright, you should control it more however, were I a less patient person, you could have sealed her fate."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina laughs, obviously in a good mood.
* Xanatos crosses his arms. "You told me you couldn't do anythign furthur. Since I instantly assumed all was lost, I exploded."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> By the way, Terra, I love what you did with your hair.
<Elayne> "I will not begin to explain the costs of calling off the Chief Justicator."
<Xanatos> I assure you I am thankful. And would do anything to make up for it.
<Terra> "Oh, thanks."
* Shiva` turns around. 1"I'll tkae a beer."
* Terra hands some wine to Kat
<Xanatos> <Theron> I pointed it out on the holo-net. *he says as he steps in and sits down*
<Elayne> "Start by calming that woman down, she's going to hurt someone soon and it's not going to end up with such a happy ending."
<Xanatos> <Theron> I told you it would look goo don you.
<Xanatos> Believe me, I'm trying.
<Elayne> "Especially with the Vapaad having brought children onto this station... I know how she is about them."
* Xanatos tilts his head, wondering why he is being scolded.
* Elayne gives him a look, "In all technicalities, it is as you say, she is like a child, that makes you the guardian."
<DeathStar> 6* KAtrina leans on Shiva.
<Xanatos> After what I did to her. I highly doubt she'll have anything to do with me.
* Shiva` tosses her arm around Kat's shoulder. 1"I wasn't lieing about you telling people this...I will have you destroyed. 6She looks at Terra. "That means you too."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You would never have me destroyed. 6She says coyly.
<Elayne> "I'm sure she knows you were only doing your duties, isn't she supposed to be one of those honorable types?"
<Xanatos> She is like a child. *he repeats*
<Shiva`> Just your clothes.
<Xanatos> <Theron> I'm people. *he notes*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, maybe I should tell. 6She flags down the nearest NPC.
<Elayne> "And how often to children get punished by adults, yet still cling to them?"
<Xanatos> When I was punished I ran away from home. *he notes, scratching his neck*
<Shiva`> Ut....I won't goto bed with you.
<Elayne> "Did you ever run back?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Aw.
<Xanatos> No. I lived in an orphanage until I joined the military.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina drinks her wine. "So, Terra, tell me. Do you have a boyfriend?"
<Xanatos> *Theron frowns at the three girls ignoring him and just sits there.
* Elayne looks at him in near disbelief... "Over a punishment?"
* Terra seems almost uncomfortablt answering. "... not really..."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I think he likes you. 6She nods at Theron
<Terra> "I'm.. flattered?"
<Xanatos> Over getting my ass kicked. Which is exactly what I did to Erevis. I kicked her ass. Because there was no other way to bring her in.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> That's not the emotion I'm feeling.
<Terra> "It's not something I've really thought about much."
<Xanatos> *Theron blinks at the two and rubs his next* "Oh come'on now. ...How..uh how is that Erevis situation?"
<Elayne> "Tell me, did Dragoon Ariel ever kick her ass? Did Angela?"
<Xanatos> Sera had nothing to do with Erevis. And Ariel never layed a hand on her.
<Elayne> "She didn't?"
<Xanatos> Never.
<Elayne> "I'm lost... is Angela not her employer?"
<Xanatos> Sera pestered the shit out of her until she agreed. Previously Sera had sex with Spade while he was in Erevis' body. So no. They're not close.
<Elayne> "Alright then, with Ariel, you say Ariel never kicked her ass..."
<Elayne> "...So where did you conclude you needed to?"
<Xanatos> It was either do that or I lose my job. I did my job because that's what I was ordered to do. Because you complained. Now, I love this chat and everything, and i'm not meaning to be rude. But I need to talk to Darien now."
<Elayne> "Xanatos Durran."
<Xanatos> What?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You should. Everyone needs love.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Isn't that right, Shiva?
<Terra> "... I... guess."
<Shiva`> It's nice once and a while. 6She smiles smuggly
<Xanatos> *Theron hangs his head.
<Elayne> "What her, you took on the responsibility. She didn't devolve into this agressive figure on her own."
<Xanatos> And you blame me? *he tilts his head back*
<Terra> <Strife... I... don't know what to do here...>
<DeathStar> 6* Strife suggests stabbings.
<Elayne> "No, I'm simply telling you what you need to do. Everyone's at least a little worried about that woman and you're the best chance at quelling a problem."
<Terra> "... but I don't think I'm ready."
<Xanatos> Actually Ariel is. Erevis is nervous around men because she was almost raped. And she began agressive, she began in this world by beating our team into a bloody pulp. So I must insist, read up, learn more about her. Before you go about making judgements on her.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Fair enough. 6Finishes Shiva's beer
<Xanatos> <Theron> ...I'm glad it's as if i'm not even here.
<Elayne> "Most people go on thier first impressions, mine was to be violently shoved."
<Terra> "Sorry, it's just... I don't know how to deal with things like that."
<Shiva`> No one's ever ready for it Terra, it just happens.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina offers Theron a smile.
<Xanatos> And first impressions are generally wrong 100% of the time.
<Xanatos> *Theron just lightly smiles back, and when she looks away he would frown briefly.
<DeathStar> <KAtrina> want to sit with us, Theron?
* Elayne looks to him, "And we all wish everyone would come to understand that, heck, most of your people still call me Elayne Trenton."
<Elayne> "You still call Angela by a Dragoon name."
<Xanatos> Because that is how I know her, and that is how I'll always know her. She is Sera, regardless of her past.
<Xanatos> <Theron> If i'm not intruding?
<Terra> "... if you have someone you really care about, but they don't quite count as a boyfriend..."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Nonsense. Here, take this seat. 6She pats by one next to her
<Terra> "What then?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Then I guess they're your best friend, Terra.
<Terra> "... seems more than that, but yeah."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> sometimes, best friends become more than that. 6She winks.
<Xanatos> *Theron stands and moves over to sit by Katrina. "I see you two are in very high spirits. I hope from not torturing poor young Mr. Pilot there."
<Elayne> "You're an interesting person Durran. Are you sure you're brain is... damaged?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> My dear Shiva showed she has a soul of an angel.
<Shiva`> Watch it...
<Xanatos> That's what my medical report says.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Whoops. My lips are sealed.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Surely not? Miss Shiva definitely has an icey demenor.
<Shiva`> Thank you.
<Terra> "Well... it'd be a little difficult to... you know..." *blushes*
<Elayne> "You'd fool me. Anyways, I'm glad we could reach an understanding."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pauses, then nods knowingly. "I know."
<Elayne> *she seems to be putting effort into this whole 'ambassador face'*
* Terra nods, still seeming embarrassed
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pats Terra's hand. "It's okay. It's understandable."
* Xanatos nods his head once. "Yeah. A big misunderstanding, like I said." He bows his head once. "Have a good evening." Then turns and moves to step out.
<Xanatos> <Theron> It's alright Terra. My wife wouldn't enjoy me dating anyway.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Your--wife?
* Terra nods, then almost looks relieved
<DeathStar> 6* Darien contacts Xan via the comm.
<Xanatos> <Theron> I...I was joking...was it a bad joke?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... wow, you had me.
<Terra> "Me too."
<Xanatos> <Comm> Alright, things between me and Elayne are alright. Now what's the bigger problem?
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> Now take Erevis to Elayne and make her apologize.
<Xanatos> <Comm> Are you serious? She'll never agree...
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> Then Elayne will have her ass.
<Xanatos> <Comm> ...wonderful. I'll do what I can. Have a crew on standby incase Erevis freaks out...she's not really herself right now.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Then is was a good joke? *he glances up, smiling*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sends an acknowledgement.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Very good.
* Terra nods
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I think you even fooled shiva.
<Xanatos> *Theron glances to Shiva. "I did?"
<Shiva`> Hardly...
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Och.
* Xanatos slides around a corner and moves into the brig, he glances at the guard then moves over to the cell.
<Xanatos> <THeron> Oh...well maybe next time.
<DeathStar> 6* Guards stand on standby
<Shiva`> Maybe....6She glances at him.
<DeathStar> 6* The guard lowers the force field.
<Xanatos> Erevis. We've got the charges dropped on one condition.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis does nothing.
<Xanatos> <Theron> It is good to see that you all are in good spirits. It makes me happy as well. *he says, laughing lightly*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yeah, I think we're all doing fine.
<Terra> "I'm always in good spirits. I'm the bartender."
* Shiva` glances at her datapad then over at Kat.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances at Shiva, then at the datapad.
* Xanatos steps inside the cell and moves closer to her. "All you have to do is apologize for harming Elayne. She understands now, that it was an accident, but all she is asks is an apology. That's all."
<Terra> "... and that was not a good joke."
<Shiva`> Sorry Kat, I've got business to attend to....6She puts on her pouty face.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Alright. See you tonight
<Xanatos> <Theron> I. *he pauses at glances at Terra* I'm sorry. I did not mean to bother you.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You should raise your field again.
<Terra> "No, you didn't. I mean my joke wasn't good."
<Shiva`> Naughty...6She leans over, kissing her on the cheek then walks off, carefully stepping over Tom Pilot
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis speaks without looking at him, or even moving - execpt for her lips.
<Xanatos> Erevis please. *he kneels down* All this can be resolved easily. All you have to do is apologize. You did it once already, another time will not hurt.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will not lie.
<Xanatos> You're not sorry for harming her? But it was all just a misunderstanding...she didn't know that she shouldn't bother you while meditating. And you didn't realized you snapped her finger until it already happened. It was all one big accident.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am not sorry in the least. If I could, I wish I could inflict more pain.
<Xanatos> Erevis you don't mean that.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I would not have said it if I did not mean it.
<Xanatos> Why? Why are you so angry?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Go away, XAnatos durran. 6Seh lays down on the buck and turns her back to him.
<DeathStar> *bunk
<Xanatos> No. *he motions for the guards to raise the dampners again* I will not leave until you talk to me. All that anger you're holding inside of you is a problem. And we need to do something about it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am angry that spiteful cowards such as herself have the ability to do this. I do not believe that will be changing any time soon.
<Xanatos> <Theron> I...oh well i'm sure it was funny.
<Xanatos> You know what I do, when I get around people like that? I avoid them. Why? Because it's much easier to just ignore them and go about your business than to play part to their pity party.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> She would not leave me alone.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> She insulted my apology and called me a liar. 6She turns to face Xanatos, quivering with anger. "I will not apologize to her for I do not mean it. I will not be made a hypocrit."
* Xanatos frowns. "When that type of person gets in your face, and wont back down. Sometimes it is best to be the better person and just walk away."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then be the better person and walk away.
<Xanatos> Erevis if you don't apologize, she wont drop the charges and they'll come and take you away...away from me. I don't want that to happen. She was wrong to insult your apology and even worse to call you a liar. But I believe you should toughen up and apologize. Then, after that, be done with her. I know that's what I plan on doing.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will not lie. Not even for you.
<Xanatos> And when they come to take you away? What then? Goodbye forever? I don't want to lose you, not again.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> What shall be, will be. 6She lays her head back down.
<Xanatos> Tell me something. What are you proving?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am proving nothing. I will not dishonor myself to save myself from your justice system.
<Xanatos> Dishonor yourself? *he falls back onto his butt and places a hand on his knee.* Lying, to quell this nonsense, is not dishonoring yourself.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then you know nothing about honor, Xanatos Durran. 6She says harshly.
<Xanatos> Honor to me is just a word.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... then we have nothing more to discuss. 6She closes her eyes and says nothing more to him.
* Xanatos slowly stands up. "Just know this. Your pride. Your honor. It's going to get me killed, and it's going to cause a war. And in war, innocents die. How honorable is that?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says nothing.
<Xanatos> So much for you're feelings of understanding. *he motions for the guard to lower the field*
<DeathStar> 6* The guard does so.
* Xanatos steps out and shuts the cell door behind him.
* Xanatos motions him to raise it again. THen steps out.
<DeathStar> 6 *Darien waits there. "No go?"
* Xanatos just eyes Darien. He steps outside, motioning him to walk with him.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks along, cupping his hands together.
<Xanatos> Ariel needs to talk with her.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't think she would lie for Ariel, either.
<Xanatos> Then all is lost. Because I don't know how to get a stubborn child that follows honor to lie.
<DeathStar> <Darien> If you think her such a child, then why do you want her as your equal?
<Xanatos> Because I have faith that she can grow. But situations like this just cause her to repress more. All she sees are the bad things about life, since that's all people ever express around her.
<Xanatos> And if I try to tell her different. She does not believe me.
<DeathStar> <Darien> No, Xanatos. She believes that an ideal is worth dying for. That in this galaxy of deceit, she has to be honest. And that is why she will not change, even for you.
<Elayne> Atlean Officer> "Ambassador Elayne, you know we need a recording of repentance to recall a Justicator..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wind is like that, in a way. He believes in his perfect ideal world.
<Elayne> "I understand that... delay it a bit? We're dealing with a special case, I've already stated I want to repeal..."
<Xanatos> Then they are both delusional fools.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ...you would dishonor her if you tried to get her out of this, you know.
<Xanatos> I would rather her hate me forever than to be taken by the Atleans.
<DeathStar> <Darien> And you think you could make her leave that cell?
<Elayne> Atlean Officer> "I am sorry, but Justicator Darce will not turn back unless he has assurances your attacker is repentant. It's a high crime to attack one of your station Ma'am."
<Xanatos> Maybe if I beat the shit out of her again.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Xanatos. I think she'll make sure that one of you won't leave that cell alive.
<Elayne> "Alright... I'll send another message before he hits the jump gates..."
<Xanatos> Turn that dampner on and it'll be her. I'm a murderer anyway. No big deal, add another to my list.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You couldn't kill her.
* Xanatos waves his hands to emphasize this.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You love her.
<Xanatos> And in my love for her, that means I can sit by and let her throw her life over to the Atleans?
* Elayne signs off her console and sits back, holding her head. "I can't outright tell her why... damnit..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes. If you really love her for who she is and not who you want her to be
* Xanatos scowls. "I shouldn't have made her come."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You shouldn't have fallen for such a stubborn kid.
<Xanatos> It's a shame we can't pick who we fall for. Or else I would've fallen for the sex crazed one. *he notes, half joking*
<DeathStar> 6* DArien stops outside Elayne's room, having led them there.
* Xanatos pauses and glances at the door. He sighs.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien knocks.
<Elayne> *A very tired Elayne* "Come in..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> What I'm about to do, I'm doing it for Ariel. Not you. I hate you.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps in, pulling out a recorder.
* Xanatos slowly steps in behind Darien.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hits play and the conversation from the cell plays. It seems Darien violated Xan's privacy rights
* Xanatos crosses his arms, listening.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands there until the entire conversation is done, then hits the off button. "There you go. Your apology."
<Elayne> "It should be sufficient to at least convince Darce... if it doesn't, I'm afraid my government will get uppity..."
<Xanatos> It's an apology, what more do you want?
<Elayne> "...As long as you remove the parts that state she'd like to cause me more bodily harm."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Dishonest, but hey, we're not idealist.
<Xanatos> Peace. That's the goal here, right?
<Elayne> "That's always been my goal."
<Elayne> "Durran, that woman is going to start a war, maybe a few."
* Xanatos just stands there, his jaw clenched tight. He's heard this tune once before.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien always thought the tune was Durran was gonig to start a war.
<Elayne> "This station was made to promote piece, she's the fire ina a powder keg."
<Xanatos> Pointing fingers is not a way of promoting Peace, Ms. Ambassador.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods somberly, never disagreeing.
<Xanatos> But I will talk with her and see if she would like to leave. Since you both agree.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina tells Terra about the time she ended up at the boy's camp instead of the girl's camp.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, if the charged are dropped, I'm glad to let her go
<Terra> "That must've been interesting."
<Xanatos> *Theron just listens to the conversation with a smile, always eager to hear new stories.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Terrifying.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Until I learned the boys would do anything I wanted.
<Xanatos> <Theron> How did you escape?
<Xanatos> *Theron pauses and then nods, his own question answered.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina smiles.
* Elayne sighs and pulls out a disc, handing it to Xanatos. "You will find an apology to her on here. I would tell her myself, but as your recording said, that might be unwise."
* Xanatos takes it and nods.
<Elayne> "Go ahead and release her... but be careful."
* Xanatos glances to Darien, to see if he can go.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods. "Good day, Ambassador." 6He bows his head.
* Xanatos nods. "Good Evening." He turns and steps out.
<Elayne> "Good day... Darien Starr."
<Elayne> "Oh and... Darien."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes?
* Xanatos remains outside, waiting for Darien.
<Terra> "I wish I could solve my problems that way."
<Elayne> "In the event that I cannot stop the Justicator, please, contact me and let me deal with him if he arrives here."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh, you could, if you tried.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Of course. I will inform you when he arrives.
<Xanatos> <Theron> I'm a male. And i'd do anything you asked. *he notes to Terra*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> See?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps out as well, running his hand through his hair. "This whole making peace was easier when I tried to perform genocide on the other side."
* Xanatos stares at Darien for a moment. "So how did that work exactly? I kinda just went with it but I was kinda lost."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Really? You don't know what I did? 6He walks along.
<Terra> "I'll remember that." *winks*
<Xanatos> ...I'm not really clever. I'm assuming it has to do with the truth being better than a lie...but...I dunno.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Erevis was willing to go into hell than lie by apologizing for something she did not mean. So, that means, when she apologized to Elayne in the garden, she really did meant it.
<Xanatos> ...isn't that bad?
<Xanatos> Oh wait,.
* Xanatos shakes his head. "So the first apology was real. Which means it was Elayne's fault."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina smiles.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Shhhh. It was everyone's fault.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien makes sure no one heard that
<Xanatos> Right. Specially mine. *he says with a nod*
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's always yours.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Now I know why Warren just grunts now. He gave up.
<Xanatos> I wouldn't be Xan if I wasn't.
<Xanatos> It's really true. I have known him much longer than anyone else.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Go free your girlfriend and hope she doesn't break up with you
<Xanatos> She probably will. *he glances at Darien* Don't worry. I wont mention this to Ariel. She might think you were coming onto her or something.
<DeathStar> <Darien> She'll probably pretend none of this happened.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Though, I think you and her need to have a serious talk about Erevis.
<Xanatos> ...me talk to Ariel? That's like me making Erevis do something she doesn't want too.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You want to cement things with your loli, then you'll cement things with her best friend.,
<Xanatos> Her idol you mean. And don't call her a loli, that makes me feel creepy. *he shakes his head and then turns round a corner, throwing his hand up* Thanks again.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You're the one who keeps calling her a kid.
<Xanatos> I was upset. *he calls back*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien rubs the back of his head, alone now. "....I'm suddenly lonely."
* Xanatos steps into the brig yet one more time and glances at the guard, he nods to turn off the field as he steps over to the cell. Then he opens it. "You're free to go."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances at him oddly.
* Xanatos turns so that she can see that he wont stop her.
<Elayne> * Kieran looms up behind Darien, curing him of his loneliness.
<DeathStar> <Darien> BLoody hell.
<Elayne> Kieran> "...The Starr shines in the night sky..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't get up. "I find my cell comfortable."
<DeathStar> <Darien> And the weird gizmo chases the stars, hoping to catch them, but when day comes, gone I --- oh, fuck, look, you got me doing it
<Xanatos> I'm serious Erevis. Elayne dropped the charges. You can return to your life, now.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't budge. "I did not apologize to her."
<Elayne> Kieran> "...The Starr evades destiny until the time is right..."
<Xanatos> You did. *he steps inside and sits down on the bunk beside her*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks insulted.
<Xanatos> The first time. Your first apology. She realized it was sincere.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not mean it now. 6She notes stubbonrly.
<Xanatos> But her continued prodding caused the disaster. And she only continued because she didn't believe you.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says nothing to that.
<Xanatos> So all in all, everything is fine now. And you can go.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis makes a snorting sound and stands. "Very well."
* Xanatos stands as well. "After you." he motions to the door.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves - slowly - almost daintily, it would seem, out of the cell.
* Xanatos just moves after her. "So. Are you upset at me for my part in all this?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You did your job.
<Xanatos> I know. But I feel terrible.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You should not.
<Xanatos> If you feel like roughing me up, I wont resist. *he notes*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I cannot attack.
<Xanatos> You can if it's a spar. Besides. I wouldn't press charges against you.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... I cannot attack. I am in too much pain. I used too much energy.
* Xanatos blinks and slides closer to her, suddenly concerned. "Should I get Peace to look you over?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is internal damage that will heal with time.
<Xanatos> A..are you sure?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am not dead yet.
<Xanatos> Always a good thing. But perhaps you should get a bite to eat and a little rest?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will rest.
<Xanatos> But you haven't eaten in almost two days...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will throw it up.
<Xanatos> B..but why? *he looks at her concerned*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... because of the internal damage. 6She says patiently, like Xanatos were a child.
<Xanatos> I...right...well i'm really sorry. It's all my fault.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .....
* Xanatos stops at her door and looks to her. "If you need anything from me at all..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am fine. 6She notes stubbornly.
<Xanatos> You're so fine that you're in pain and you vomit when you eat.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is what happens when one burns their cellular structure.
<Xanatos> That's what happens when you stubbornly use your hyperspace energy even though I asked for you to not do so.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will do whatever it takes.
* Xanatos sighs. "Yes. Killing yourself will solve everything. Come'on, you need to lie down now."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I have been lieing down enough. 6She says, as if purposely picking a fight
* Xanatos tilts his head at her and smiles. "You'll disagree with me no matter what I say, wont you?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If it is the truth.
<Xanatos> Very well. You need to stand. Who needs rest anyway. *he just waves his hand dismissively*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am glad you see things more correctly.
* Xanatos twists his body and she is suddenly in his arms. "I like my way, much better."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... 6She frowns.
* Xanatos smiles. "You almost though I was going to let you get away without resting, didn't you?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I could make you let me go
<Xanatos> You could. *he doesn't deny it, but he simply opens her door and steps inside with her*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I did not say you could enter my room. 6She says flatly.
<Xanatos> No. No you didn't. *he moves over and places her on the bed*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will stand as soon as you leave.
<Xanatos> Oh now you shouldn't have told me that. *he slides one of her chairs up to the side of her bed and sits down in it, propping his feet up*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says nothing, closing her eyes and going to sleep, it seems.

<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-586.7.3 - 3 days after Episode 4 -
<DeathStar> Location: Tokyo, Japan
<DeathStar> 6* Dias is in the hospital, after getting his leg reattached.
* Marcus` is sitting in Dias' room, legs propped up as Dias sleeps, snoring rather loudly. "...I wonder if I put a pillow on his head if he would stop snoring?"
* Angela steps into the room, looking over at Marcus and Dias.
* Marcus` slides his eyes to Angela and sits up strait. "I uhh...yeah I wasn't thinking about smothering him."
* Angela rolls her eyes and walks over, looking at Dias in concern.
<Marcus`> He's fine. Moron tried to kick a 'ripple'.
* Angela looks at him oddly, as if asking what that is.
<DeathStar> 6* One of Zephyr's guards is in the room. He never speaks. He just eyes them. With his eyes narrowed.
<DeathStar> 6* He even has a helmet to hide his face as he stares at them.
<Marcus`> Oh uh. This guy...apparently Dias' "brother". Which is another lab experiment from your ex-pops. He can make these portals. And dias kicked one, which he instantly closed, and cut his leg off. OH this is Steve. Wave Hi, Steve.
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> ...
<Marcus`> He's friendly.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" doesn't seem friendly.
* Angela looks at Marcus, wondering how he recognises her now.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" taps his gun on his knee, as if waiting for Marcus to go near Dias with a pillow.
* Marcus` crosses his arms, he knows the deaf girl bit all too well. "Was I wrong to assume you're Sera? You don't look the same but your facial expressions and lack of speech are the same.
<Marcus`> Also, you're the only one dumb enough to actually care about Dias in that way.
* Marcus` pauses.
* Angela isn't deaf, but mute, she then glares at him for that last remark.
<Marcus`> That came out wrong.
<Marcus`> Sorry sorry. *he holds up both of his hands* I forget that I can't be as blunt with everyone else like I can be with him. *he nods his head toward Dias* Oh and ol Steve here.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" checks his gun's power settings.
* Angela takes another chair and sits next to Dias, looking over him again, then at Marcus, signing if he's gonna be okay.
* Marcus` blinks and glances at Steve. "You know sign language?"
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> *speaks with an artifical mask voice* She asked if he'll be alright.
<Marcus`> Oh. *he glances at Angela* Yeah. I believe so. I had to drag his ass halfway across town, he'd better be alright.
* Angela runsher finger along his face softly, making a strange sound as she sighs.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve"'s head tilts a bit, as if he's fallen asleep. Impossible to say with his face gear on
* Marcus` tilts his head. "Sooo...this is going to be hard since ol Steve just passes out due to that tranq dart I stuck him with a few minutes before you walked in. So we have two options. We make love and let our bodies do the talking or I hand you a piece of paper and a pencil. You know, the caveman way."
<DeathStar> 6* It appears neither option is desired
* Angela quirks an eyebrow
* Angela grabs her pad.
<Marcus`> Oh right. You could use one those too.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" doesn't move, except for breathing
* Angela writes out, 'I'm ANgela."
* Marcus` tilts his head. "So you're not Sera? I was wrong?"
* Angela thinks about that, then writes, "I was Sera."
<Marcus`> Oh so I was right. Man i'm so smart.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" makes a snorting sound
<Marcus`> HAH! I knew you weren't sleeping you dirty cheater.
* Angela sighs and signs, "There's another out there, an evil person who is going around as Sera now, so call me Angela."
<Angela> *writes, actually
<Marcus`> Oh serious? Like...a Clone?
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" appears to be listening closer now
* Angela writes, "Kinda of."
<Marcus`> Well if she's a clone of you, what makes her evil?
* Angela signs, "Phaeton raised her."
* Angela blinks and writes it.
<Marcus`> And what makes him evil?
* Angela signs, "He just is."
* Marcus` blinks.
<Marcus`> I got 'he' out of that.
* Angela sighs and writes again, 'He just is."
* Marcus` blinks again.
<Marcus`> You're a general...and you use logic like that?
* Angela sighs and shrugs, clearly not into writing a novel explaining it.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" shifts in his seat.
<Marcus`> So I've been trying to get Steve to run out and buy me some food...but he wont leave. *he says with a frown*
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" doesn't budge.
<Marcus`> I tried to move him once, and he hit me...if I was so shocked that he hits like I girl I would've totally went off on him.
<Marcus`> NRP: wasn't*
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" unclicks the safety on the gun as he sits there
* Marcus` snaps his head towards Steve. "I'm watching you, Buddy. None of that funny business."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" says nothing.
<Marcus`> Come'on Steve. Take the helmet off, we're all friends here.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" doesn't move.
<Marcus`> Please? *he makes a sad face*
* Angela smiles a bit, watching.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" taps the gun on his knee.
<Marcus`> Yeah Mr. Big shot with that gun. If you didn't have that I would totally slap you down, son.
* Angela taps out a message and orders food, showing Marcus the message.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" clicks the safety off and sets the gun down on the floor.
<DeathStar> *on
* Junior has joined #taw
* Marcus` pauses and slides his head to look at the message, he smiles widely. "OH! Can you get me a double order of chicken fried rice?" He glances at Steve. "No time for fighting man, food is on the way!"
* Angela adds it to the order and sits back a little.
* Marcus` slowly glances at the gun on the floor and then looks back up to Steve.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" sits there with his arms crossed.
* Marcus` jumps up and runs over to grab the gun.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" holds out his leg and trips Marcus, then brings his elbow down on Marcus back.
* Marcus` slams his face into the floor and then releases an odd sound, he lays still now.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" grabs Marcus' shirt and slides him back over at Angela.

* Marcus` springs to life and twists, sliding himself behind Steve and pushes forward, his leg still pointed out in front of Steve's.
<DeathStar> 6" *Steve suddenly brings his leg down on Marcus' pressure point in his leg
<Marcus`> GAHHH!! *he grabs his leg and falls over, unless Steve still has his shirt*
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" doesn't.
* Marcus` slams into the floor.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" sits there calmly.
<Marcus`> I...I CAN'T FEEL MY LEG! I'm PARALYZED! NURSE NURSE!!! *he flails about on the floor*
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" seems happy -- well, one assumes it. His gear mask seems to smile.
* Angela sighs and hits the call button for the nurse.
<Marcus`> I hate you! HATE! I'm calling my lawyer!
<DeathStar> 6* The nurse comes in.
<Marcus`> *Marcus crawls over and wraps his arms around the nurses leg. "MY LEG! HE BROKE IT!"
* Angela points to marcus
<DeathStar> 6* The nurses wheel him out for X-Rays.
<Marcus`> W-wait what are you doing? You were supposed to throw him out.
<DeathStar> 6* The door shuts on Marcus' ranting, leaving Angela alone with "Steve" ... and the unconscious Dias
* Angela sits back and looks over Dias, smiling gently.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" seems to enjoy the silence. His gear mask smiles.
* X1 has joined #taw
<DeathStar> 6* Marcus is brought in with no cast.
<Marcus`> *Marcus' arms are crossed. "...i'm going to get cancer for sure now...stupid radiation."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" seems happier.
<Marcus`> *Marcus just stares at Steve. "I'll get you in the end. Don't worry."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" shrugs and lowers his face down, as if he were asleep
* Angela sits up and looks over her datapad, sitting beside Dias and chekcing her messages.
<Marcus`> *Marcus stands up quietly, apparently the nurses fixed his leg and he sneaks towards Steve.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" doesn't seem to notice.
<Marcus`> *Marcus slowly reaches up to pull Steve's helmet off.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" reaches out his hand to jab Marcus' pressure point for his arms.
* Marcus` widens his eyes. "AHHHH!" he runs around in a circle, his arms flailing about lifelessly*
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" sleeps.
* Junior has quit IRC (Quit: Get MacIrssi - http://www.g1m0.se/macirssi/ )
* Marcus` sighs and plops down. "So Sera...and yes i'm calling you Sera. I'll just call the other one Angela is I see her. What's up with you and Dias?"
* Angela writes out, after glaring a bit, "What do you mean?"
<Marcus`> You're here, watching over him like some sort of girlfriend, yet he never talks about you. Are you two dating or what/
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" boredly plays with his datapad.
* Angela blushes a bit.
* Marcus` stares. "Why are you blushing?"
<DeathStar> 6* Angela gets a message from Warren asking about the equipment that Janus is building and it's progress
* Angela uses teh distraction, sending back that they are ahead of schedule.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" shifts in his seat, and hits a few buttons on his datapad while listening to Marcus and Ag--well, MArcus
<DeathStar> 6* Angela gets a "Good." message
* Kit[Work] is now known as Kit
<Marcus`> ...well i'm officially bored off my ass. Steve. Sit there....good boy.
* Angela looks back up at Marcus, she writes, "I like him... that's all..."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" ignores him
* Marcus` nods. "Fair enough. So do you like this new you?"
* Angela thinks about it, "I did."
<Marcus`> Quickly changed your mind, did you?
* Angela writes, "It's ahrd to enjoy it when I know what it caused."
<Marcus`> The other Sera thing? Eh. You wanted to find out who you really were. Now you know.
* Angela thinks about that, she writes, "Yeah... and I can live like a normal person now."
<Marcus`> Then there you go...but wait...you've suddenly realized that living like a normal person sucks, haven't you?
* Angela shakes her head, wirting, "I kinda look forward to it."
<Marcus`> Being human sucks. You're frail, weak. Being a dragoon would be so amazing. So much strength, the ability to finally be able to protect those you care about...I envied you. Couldn't imagine wanting to throw it away.
* Angela writes, "I should never have had that power. THings like that might look and seem cool... but it comes at terrible prices."
<Marcus`> With great power comes great responsibilty. Yeah I know the drill. I've read the comics. And I've seen some of the decisions that you all made. And I personally feel I could've done it better. But maybe we'd only see if i was in the situation.
* Angela writes, "So you think the descision to live a normal life, to give up such power was wrong?"
<Marcus`> What good are you now? You're pretty smart still, sure. But when it comes to a fight? I could probably take you on now.
* Angela considers him, the writes, "I'm still the student of William Spade."
<Marcus`> Which means you know some fighting stances and pressure points. Big deal, so does Steve here and I just made up his name. He's really some no name grunt of a guard.
* Angela looks at Marcus' leg.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" tilts his head.
* Marcus` moves it.
* Angela writes, "A hero isn't only in physical strength."
<Marcus`> A hero has both brains and brawn. I've got neither, you've got brains, and steve's got brawn. Put us all togehter and we would be like an uber Hero.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" snorts again.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" pulls out a book and reads it
<Marcus`> HAh! You think because you can read that makes you smart?
* Angela bops Marcus.
* Angela writes, "You might be a good kisser, but stop being a jerk."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" grunts at the good kisser bit.
* Angela writes, "The guy is just doing his job, I'm sure he probably isn't elated to be here and you
<Angela> 're making it worse."
<Marcus`> Ow! *he rubs his head* Oh Steve's a cool guy. All I gotta do is give him the opportunity to hurt me and he gets all giddy, I can just see it all over him.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve's" gear mask doesn't change expressions
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve"'s gear's x-ray goggles shift a bit and as he glances at Marcus and Angela
<Marcus`> *Marcus turns to stare at Steve. "Wh...what are you doing!?"
* Angela unconciously adjusts the light blue t-shirt she's wearing.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" says nothing as he stares in their direction, the goggles clearly shifting focus
* Angela looks from Marcus to Steve, the back again.
<Marcus`> ....
<Marcus`> You're such a pervert Steve.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve"'s goggles shift again in response.
<Marcus`> STOP STARING! *he grabs Dias' food tray and throws it at Steve*
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" catches the tray without ever shifting his glance.
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> I am scanning the various floors for the enemy, if you do not mind.
<Marcus`> *Marcus pauses. "Oh...sorry..." He frowns and glances at Sera. "I feel dumb now."
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> Good.
<Marcus`> Well you coulda said something you big jerk!
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> I did not see the need to waste energy pacifying your paranoid mind.
<Marcus`> Oh i'm sorry, I don't know if you're gay or not, since you wont show your damn face.
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> Are you homophobic?
* Angela looks busy with her datapad.
<Marcus`> Nah, if you're gay you can tell me. I wont freak out and run away.
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> A pity.
<Marcus`> Oh screw you man. *he groans* When is Zephyr coming by anyway? I figured she would be here by now...
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> I'm sure she has her time scheduled to avoid taking up someone elses' visiting hours.
<Marcus`> ...which means she is avoiding me, doesn't it?
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> Maybe.
<Marcus`> How the hell can I apologize for being a jerkoff if she keeps ignoring me?
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> Perhaps she will forget you're a jerk if she stays away from you long enough?
* Angela shakes her head.
* Angela writes, 'She's avoiding me.'
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" sighs as Angela runs his fun
<DeathStar> *ruins
<Marcus`> Oh...why...Ohhhh. She hates you. I completely forgot about that...
* Angela golfclaps.
<Marcus`> Oh shut up....HEY! I bet if you hug her and say you're sorry that she'll forgive you.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" shakes his head
<Marcus`> OK...that would probably get you killed...
* Angela nods.
<Marcus`> Zephyr has a lot on her mind now, what with being a general and having two retards to keep a watch over. Then I didn't make things easier on her by bitching at her for not being friendly...then the Chad thing...man...I feel like crap now.
* Angela looks at him and writes out, "You think I even talk to her long enough to bitch?"
<Marcus`> Nah. I was just talking about myself. You're a lost cause to her. Though I don't see why. You're clearly trying to change the perspective on you.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" keeps reading his book
<Marcus`> Hey Steve. Whatcha readin?
* Angela shrugs, she writes, "Some people just never change thier views."
<Marcus`> Ah, it's life I guess.
* Angela writes, "Their views, their lives, it's not my business to push into them."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" shows the book his no title, and goes back to reading.
<Marcus`> I'd say so. But doesn't that piss you off? That you make a mistake or two and they totally write you out of their lives? What ever happened to the whole, forgive and forget thing?
* Angela writes out, "No matter what, she'll always be my sister to me, I just have to hope one day she turns around and sees that."
* Marcus` nods his head, smiling. "That's a good answer. She if you woulda called her a bitch, Steve here woulda ran out and told on you and you woulda lost all hope of rebuilding your family ties."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" grunts.
* Angela shrugs and sighs and whips out her datapad, checking the time and an appointment.
* Angela looks up and writes, "Hopefully, I can soon at least say it without a notepad."
<Marcus`> Oh? You trying to get your vocal chords fixed?
* Angela nods.
<Marcus`> Well I hope that works out for you. Then these conversations wouldn't be so difficult.
* Angela smiles gently, she then looks back over at Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve"'s book is on his face.
<Marcus`> Hey Steve. Would you mind reading to me? I'm sleepy and I can't go to sleep without a bedtime story.
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> A pity.
<Marcus`> Oh come'on, be a pal.
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> I am not your pal.
<Marcus`> Alright alright. Tell me your name and we can be friends.
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> Steve.
<Marcus`> Serious? I was right the whole time!?
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> Oh yes.
<Marcus`> Awesome. Well Steve. I'm Marcus. Now we're friend, right?
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> No
<Marcus`> ...well you're just a jerk man...
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> *grunts*
* Marcus` whistles, lightly, tapping his hand on the arm of the chair.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" taps his gun in tune
<Marcus`> You like that song too? Come'one Angela, sin-err..tap along with us. *he continues tapping*
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" sings the lyrics with his altered voice from the mask
* Angela blushes a little.
* Marcus` stops tapping after they finish the song. He pauses and nods to Steve. "Nicely done."
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> Hmph.
<Marcus`> Yeah i'll accept that as a thanks. *he glances at Sera* What ever happend to that food?
* Alicia has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Angela looks up and as if on que a Janus employee stops by and leaves them a bag of food from a local shop.
<Marcus`> *Marcus' eyes get as wide as saucers. His mouth begins to water and he rubs his hands togehter eagerly.
<DeathStar> 6 *"Steve"'s x-ray lenses focus on the food
* Marcus` takes one of the chicken fried rices and slides it over to Steve. "I ordered that for you."
* Angela grabs a box of food and cracks it over, breaking some chopsticks open, she eats, she's been getting good at eating the local food.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" eyes it. Sadly, his mask has no hole for eating
<Marcus`> All you have to do is take off the mask to eat it...*he grins evilly*
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" reaches up and grabs the mask, unlocking it and begins to lift it off.
<Marcus`> *Marcus stares.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" pulls off the gear and is seen to be wearing a cloth mask underneath.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" lifts the cloth mask up to his upper lips, then eats the food.
* Marcus` sighs. "Damnit!" he scowls and just angrily eats his rice.
* Angela giggles in her odd little waya dn eats.
* Marcus` suddenly jumps up and jumps at Steve, trying to pull the cloth mask off.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" tilts his body to the right, never leaving the chair, but tilts enough that Marcus would go flying into the wall.
* Marcus` hits the law with a loud thud. The only noise he makes is a groan as he goes sliding down the wall.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" reaches over and takes Marcus' food, eating it.
* Angela giggles more.
* Marcus` pulls himself up then eyes his hand, then Steve. "NO!" He howls and tries to get his food back.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" gives him the leftovers.
* Marcus` pouts and eats the leftovers, scowling. "ONIONS!?" he spits and wretches, holding his stomach.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" is satisfied and pulls down the cloth mask and puts on the gear msk.
* Marcus` crawls over to his chair and sits down in it. "...you see Angela. That is true evil right there."
* Angela eats another bit of food.
* Alicia has joined #TAW
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Alicia
* Marcus` eyes her. "..."
* Kit has quit IRC (Quit: )
* Angela looks back
* Marcus` just hmphs and crosses, his arms, looking up at the ceiling.
<Marcus`> I bet Steve would like to go out with you Angela...he seems Desperate.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" says nothing.
* Angela eats another bit of food.
<Marcus`> DAMN YOU PEOPLE! SAY SOMETHING! WRITE SOMETHING.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" shifts in his seat.
<Marcus`> I'm going insane...i'm losing my mind...I can't go out there...they'll get me if I do...I can't stay in here...Steve will get me if I do...
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" taps his gun
* Marcus` points to Steve. "What did you do with all those Tsiv weapons I confiscated!?"
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve"'s mask seems to smile.
<Marcus`> That was my only protection! Oh god, now i'm really going to die. Why can't you people give me a gun to at least defend myself!?
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve"'s x-ray lens shift as they focus on Marcus
* Angela smiles and writes, "I'm still a crackshot with a gun too."
<Marcus`> Zephyr taught me how to shoot, and if someone. *he eyes Steve* Would give my weapons back. I wouldn't have to hide in here.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" holds out a gun, as if eager for Marcus to leave.
* Angela writes, "You lose protection if you leave though."
* Marcus` grins and slides over to grab the gun.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" retracts his hand once Marcus has it.
<Marcus`> *Marcus eyes it and holsters it then moves back over and sits down. "Oh I know. Besides, this gun probably wont fire like the last one I got..."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" looks at him.
* Marcus` waves.
<Shiva`> <Dias> Would you guys just shut the hell up? I'm trying to sleep! 6He groans and tosses the pillow over his head.
<Marcus`> *Marcus springs up and lands on the pillow. "DIAS!"
<Shiva`> 6Dias just howls in a muffled response
* Angela sighs
<Marcus`> What? You can't breath? It's easy. Try this. *he demonstrates breathing*
<Shiva`> 6Dias grabs Marcus by the shirt and pulls him onto the floor.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" offers Dias a metal rod to hit Marcus with
<Shiva`> 6Dias accepts it and swings it at Marcus's shin
<Marcus`> OWWW! *he falls off and rolls along the floor, holding his shin, which is probably broken*
<Shiva`> 6Dias rubs his forehead. 1"So who's going to give me head? 6He looks at them all.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" indicates Angela.
* Marcus` pauses and points to Angela.
* Angela goes deep red.
<Shiva`> 6Dias follows Steve and Marcus' indications and looks at Angela. 1"Well mysterious stalker chick. Make with the head. 6He begins unzipping his pants
* Angela goes wide eyed.
<Shiva`> 6Dias begins fighting his medical gown.
* Marcus` winces at his shin and just slides over to the wall beside Steve. "Can I look at that book, cause this is going to make me sick."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" hands Marcus the book
<Marcus`> *Marcus holds it up and tilts his head, eyeing it, he begins to read.
<Marcus`> Hey I know this guy...and boy did you make all these corrections??
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> I am all brawn. I could not have.
<Shiva`> <Dias> Oooh pain killers...6He grabs Angela's small boob and passes out.
* Kit has joined #taw
* Kit is now known as Kitzzzune
<Marcus`> Good point. *he hands it back* Boring.
* Angela blushes hard
<Shiva`> 6Dias lies there, a hard on very apparent
<Marcus`> Look Sera. You can do him while he sleeps.
* Angela glowers at Marcus and writes, "I'm not interested in being a one night stand..."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve"'s eye lens are damaged by the hard on
<Marcus`> I'm sorry, but when it comes to Dias, that's all there ever is.
* Angela gets up and walks to the side of the room, crossing her arms.
* Angela doesn't look so happy...
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" offers her a metal pipe.
<Marcus`> Hey, the truth hurts. I know, trust me.
* Angela looks at the pipe, noticing someone wrote "The Truth" on it.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" nods sagely.
* Marcus` narrows his eyes. "Use it on Dias. He's the jerk, not me."
* Angela sighs and sits again, looking at Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* Dias' massive hard on looks back.
<Marcus`> Well this is lovely...OH SNAP FREE BED! *he dives onto Dias' bed, since Dias fell onto the floor.*
* Marcus` passes out, asleep after a short moment.
<DeathStar> 6* The bed snaps shut suddenly, as if someone hit the button

<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-586.7.6 - 6 days after Episode 4 -
<DeathStar> Location: Tokyo, Japan
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" sits in his chair
* Dias opens his eyes slowly. He glances over at Steve.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve"'s lens focus
* Dias pushes himself up, swinging his legs over the side of the bed. He glances at the machines hooked upto him.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr walks in, wearing a hot nurse outfit. "And where are you going?"
<Dias> For a walk...6He hops off the bed, his head turning to look at Zephyr. 1"Doesnt' that get cold?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr raises a brow. "Wow."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> And Cheryl said you would like this.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" snorts.
* Dias reaches over and grabs a camera. He snaps a picture of Zephyr. 1"For my photobook." He disconnects the things off him and starts moving towards the hallway
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr motions at "Steve" and follows along with Dias. "I'm touched. Do you know how embarrassing it is to wear this thing?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'm just glad I have the breasts now to make it seem real. 6She grabs her breasts and tests them.
<Dias> I can't say that I would. But I'm touched that you'd consider it.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances to see if Dias is even noticing her touching her breasts
* Dias eyes are forward as he walks along the hallway
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sighs and drops her hands. Cheryl would be better at this sort of thing anyway. "How are you feeling?"
<Dias> I underestimated my opponent and lost my leg...How else should I feel?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Well, what are you going to do about it?
* Dias shrugs as he walks along. 1"I don't know right now..."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I naturally thought you were going to challenge him to a rematch
<Dias> I'd just lose again. 6He stops infront of a vending machine and eyes it.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr crosses her arms, studying him quietly with her dark eyes.
* Dias reaches for his pockets then sighs, only wearing a robe. He looks back at Zephyr. 1"Got any change?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> In this outfit?
<Dias> Most girls in that outfit put their money in their panties. 6He looks at her.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Cheryl told me you weren't suppose to wear panties in this outfit.
* Dias shrugs. 1"Well that sucks..."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Can't you just hit it and candy will come out?
<Dias> Well yeah...6He just stares at the machine.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Well...?
<Dias> And if I screw up, it'll have beaten me...
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ..... Dias. Everyone loses fights now and again.
<DeathStar> 6* The vending machine stares at Dias mockingly.
* Dias keeps his focus on the machine, his back turned to her. 1"But I didn't just lose Zephyr...I got my ass handed to me. It was like watching a baby face a tiger."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You remember that time Xevil took John out in just a few blows, driving him into the street? Did John just give up and back out of fights after that?
<DeathStar> 6* Meanwhile, Aya battles a tiger, having been taken to the zoo by Chad.
<Dias> No...
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr crosses her arms, sighing. "Well, if you're going to be afraid of this guy and a few Tsivrixsh, maybe I should take you back to the protection area."
<Dias> It wouldn't stop him from coming after me...
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr smacks Dias on the face. "Quit being a baby because you lost a fight. Are you telling me that all these years of you claiming to aspire to be the greatest fighter and hero ever was all bullshit? Because it sounds to me like you're nothing but a damn quitter, Dias. And I know John and I didn't teach you to be a quitter."
* Dias head snaps to the side, it just hanging there as he listens.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Are you really going to stand here and tell me you're afraid to try again?
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" quietly hopes for more slaps.
* Dias looks up at Zephyr. 1"How do you face something like this? Someone who can open up a portal thingy within a fraction of a second and disappear or take half your arm off?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You outsmart him. You use his ego and abilities against him. Dias, you're an exceptional fighter, but sometimes you just have to learn that the way to win isn't necessarily fighting your opponent head on or even fairly.
<Dias> Hah...Use me head? The only thing it's good for is headbutting things.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> The point is, Dias, you can't give up. So - tell me right now. Do you plan to give up?
* Dias twists around and falls back against the vending machine, using it to lean on, he crosses his arms defiantly.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr waits, staring him down, using one of Cheryl's famous glares.
* Angela peeks into the room, wearing a hospital gown.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" is there only. He eyes Angela with his lens. They adjust.
* Angela looks to the empty bed, then questioningly at Steve
<DeathStar> <"Steve"> He's with Zephyr.
<Dias> Stupid pride...6He scowls to himself as he scuffs his bare foot on the floor
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Go on... 6She motions. "Say, 'I promise not to give up and I'll keep trying.'."
<Dias> 6Dias just mutters it out.
* Angela signs, 'Where?'
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hugs him. "That's a good boy."
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" motions in a random direction.
* Dias grumbles as she hugs him. He then elbows the machine, a drink dropping and a candy bar. 6He reaches down and grabs them, the drink dropping and rolling behind Zephyr.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'm not getting that.
* Angela shrugs and hops up on his bed, waiting.
<Dias> I was told if if do lunges the stitching in my leg might come out and it would deattach. 6He looks at her with a pouty face.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You just want to see if I was telling the truth about the panties. I'm not gullible, you know.
* Dias sniffles. 1"I think I'm getting depressed again.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Too bad.
<Dias> Fine...6He moves past Zephyr and bends down to grab it, the flap on his backside showing his bottoms
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr rolls her eyes toward the ceiling.
* Dias grabs it and stands up. 1"You you really dressed up like this to cheer me up? 6He looks at her.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I don't typically dress up like whore bait for fun.
<Dias> Do you do birthday parties? 6He smiles at her.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> No. 6She frowns. "You're such a pervert."
<Dias> You're the one who cheered me up. 6He points at her then throws his arm around her shoulder, pulling her in for a hug. 1"Thanks..." 6He kisses her on the side of her head.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> No problem. Someone has to look after you.
<Dias> So can you show me how your boobs fit in there again? 6He motions to her boobs then grabs his chest to show her what he's talking about.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> .... You're such a pervert, Dias. No, I will not! I'm going home to take this ridiculous thing off.
<Dias> It looks good on you tho. I think you should make it standard issue for all military woman.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr rolls her eyes. "I can hurt you, you know."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks by wearing a sweater and jeans. "Nice look, Zephy." 6She whistles as she walks toward Dias' room
<Dias> I know, but I figured since I'm already at the hospital..
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> A sw-sweater? In July?! 6She stares, then fumes.
<Dias> There's nothing hotter than a girl in a sweater. 6He looks at Cheryl, a serious look on his face.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... Whatever. I'm going home to get out of this. See you later, Dias. 6She walks off, fuming. Cheryl stops by Dias as she watches Zephyr go
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Wow, what a slut.
* Dias looks over at Cheryl. 1"But she means well."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> She means something. 6She smiles, showing her teeth
* Angela steps oput of Dias room, watching Zephyr pass as she heads towards Cheryl and Dias.
<Dias> ...Uh oh...you're smiling...That's not good.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh, I'm good. 6She slaps Dias on the back - hard.
* Dias scowls, his face wincing in pain as he is back archs slightly
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And here's our favorite loli. Hi, Angie.
<Dias> ...So that's her name? 6He looks at her.
* Angela blushes and grins at Cheryl, waving.
<Dias> Well atleast now I can call this stalker by a name.
* Angela walks over and pats Dias on the head.
* Dias eyes Angela oddly. He looks over at Cheryl. 1"So how's my kid doing?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Your kid?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... you have a child!?
<Dias> ...*looks at her than just shakes his head* I suppose it'd work better to say that to Warren...
* Angela signs, "How is Ben?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ...
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> He's fine.
<Dias> Does everybody do that finger waving thing? 6He scratches his head.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It's sign language, Dias.
<Dias> They named it?! My god are people bored...
* Angela bops Dias on the head.
* Angela signs, "Another few days till I can talk."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Congratulations. She said that you're stupid, Dias.
<Dias> What the hell?! 6He looks at her. 1"Where the hells Steve when you're getting assaulted.
* Angela pouts at Cheryl
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" eats some chips.
* Dias looks at Cheryl. 1"Well tell her she's stupid.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl signs that for Angela, smiling
* Angela sighs softly.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Anything I should say back to him?
<Dias> Yeah, it's not so funny...6He sighs then looks at Cheryl. 1"Yeah it's not so funnny when you're the one being called stupid now is it?
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl nods sympathically.
<Dias> Well..6He motions for her to sign it to Angela
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl signs that for Angela.
* Angela looks at Dias hurt.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I think you hurt her feelings, Dias.
* Jackieness has joined #taw
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Jackieness
<Dias> She started it by calling me stupid first. 6He crosses his arms defiantely.
* Angela shakes her head.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh, my bad, I translated wrong. She meant you were stupendous
* Angela blinks and pouts at Dias, capitalising on this with a hurt look.
<Dias> Oh...Well that sucks. 6He scratches the back of his head.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Do you want to apologize?
<Dias> I suppose I should. 6He motions Cheryl to apologize for him.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I think you should tell me how to phrase it.
* Angela looks at Dias and points toher ear, indicating she can hear him.
* Dias looks at Angela. 1"...Something in your ear?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I think she wants you to kiss her ear.
* Angela blinks and looks at Cheryl in shock
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl smiles, showing her teeth.
<Dias> Sorry, I only do that on the second date.
* Angela gives her a hurt look
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> She looks hurt, Dias.
* Dias looks at Cheryl again. 1"You make me want to take my pain killers.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Ouch.
<Dias> So I'm gonna need some things from you Cheryl.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> What?
* Dias holds his hand out and begins tapping his fingers as he goes along. 1"Some iron pellets, my sweatshirt, a case of beer, a 3 training bots, a case of beer and a girly poster for motivation.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... why would I have those things?
* Angela signs to Cheryl, "When do you wanna see your ship?"
<Dias> Well you're a general now so you should be able to get those and since I can't go out in public...
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Later. 6She tells Angela.
* Angela nods. And indicated her hospital gown.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yeah, I think that Angie here could get them sooner than me.
* Angela blinsk and then nods.
<Dias> And how is that?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> She's head of Janus.
<Dias> Boy I bet Granny Sera's mad about that.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl chuckles.
* Angela shrugs. Granny Sera's a badguy now, after all.
<Dias> Did you know Cheryl, that Granny Sera wants me?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Does she?
<Dias> Well she atleast wants me to do this date thing...Whatever the hell that is.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh, she wants you to be a steady boyfriend.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl keeps her smile focused on Angela.
* Angela grinsa bit.
<Dias> That's what she said.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Do you think you could be a steady boyfriend?
<Dias> I can't even read a book, what do you think?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I think you would love the challenge.
<Dias> You think so?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Indeed. The challenge of staying with only one girl? Only real men can do that.
<Dias> Well I suppose I could do her for an extended period of time.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl nods a bit. "Really?"
<Dias> But only for the challenge.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> That's ... noble, I suppose.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl glances at Angie.
* Angela glances back, signing, "You should point him to be before he goes on a quest to get himself killed."
<Dias> ...Did she jsut flick me off? 6She leans over to Cheryl
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> She said ... What did you say?
* Angela signs, "There's another Sera. THe one in the past didn't die, she's working with HIM." *emphasising him twice*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh. She said don't be fooled by the other Seraphna that supposedly exists.
* Angela looks odd, wondering why Cheryl didn't catch that, she figured she'd know.
<Dias> Other...Seraphna? There's two? I wonder if they'd want to do a threesome.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl makes a face.
* Angela also makes a face
* Angela sighs and looks like she's trying to figure out how you explain to Dias that she's the good one.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Anyway. That's an image I don't need. 6She shakes her head.
* Dias groans as he lefts his right leg up.
<Dias> *lifts*
* Angela moves over and looks at him in concern.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh, he's fine. 6She slaps him on the back again
<Dias> Yearrrggg...6Dias scowls at Cheryl as he hops on his left leg, his back arching again.
* Angela signs, "Let's get him back to bed..."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> What? He's fine!
<Dias> I need a beer is what I need.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> See?
* Dias begins patting Cheryl down. 1"And I know you have one..."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stares. "Why are you patting my chest?" 6She begins to lift her fist
<Dias> They looked bigger so I assumed you were packing...6He pulls his hands off them.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6She twitches once
* Angela gently takes Dias hand and pulls it away from her sister.
* Dias eyes Angela taking his hand. 1"Wierd..."
* Angela gives him a look.
* Dias daftly takes his hand away from her.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> One punch won't hurt. We're in a hospital.
* Angela looks back at Cheryl, shaking her head gently.
<Dias> It's been awhile since you have punched me...6He looks upwards, remembering fondly of those good times
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> See? He WANTs it
<Dias> Oh I want it alright. 6He wiggles his eyebrows aer Cheryl.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl throws a punch for his jaw.
* Dias sneezes, his elbow going up instictively and blocking the punch with his forearm.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl narrows her eyes a bit. "Oh, real cute."
* Dias blinks and looks up, his arm moving down to rub his nose. 1"About time you realized I was cute."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> you're something.
<Dias> Thanks! 6He smiles, rubbing the back of his head*
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl reaches for his throat.
<Dias> Oooh a quarter! 6He bends over to grab it, his ass hanging showing through the gown
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sighs
<Dias> Nope...It was just a bottlecap. 6He stands up
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Sad.
<Dias> What is? 6He looks at her.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh, nothing.
<Dias> So do you have a beer on you or not?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> No. I don't.
* Dias clicks his tongue in response
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... Are you clicking your tongue at me?
* Angela just watches quietly.
<Dias> Yes. 6He stares at her.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> .....
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stares back.
* Dias stares back intensely
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stares back as intensely.
* Dias clenches his fists as he stares.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl crosses her arms.
* Dias shifts his stance, a very familiar stance to Cheryl and Angela
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl narrows her eyes.
* Dias slowly begins pulling back his right hand, his legs having slid into form.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl waits for it.
* Angela mimics eating popcorn.
* Dias cocks his right arm full back and begins bringing it forward.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl waits for it
<DeathStar> <NursE> Tiem for your shot, Mr. Dias! 6Pops up with a large needle.
* Dias blinsk and looks over at the nurse. 1"Uh....That's Mr. Dias." 6He points at Angela
* Angela points back at Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* The nurse giggles. "Well, we can solve this." 6Pulls out a second needle and gives them both shots.
<Dias> Owww...6He rubs his arm, eyeing the nurse like she's a villian. 1"THAT HURT!
* Angela blinks and looks at the woman fearfully.
* Angela goes to hide behind Cheryl.
<DeathStar> <Nurse> Oh, you silly, boy. 6Hands Dias a lollipop.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl raises a brow.
<Dias> Oooh! 6He takes the sucker and pops it into his mouth, quickly gnawing on it, having een totally pacified.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6She glances behind her
* Angela points at the Nurse accusingly
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rolls her eyes. "Baby."
* Angela looks at her, then nods and pouts.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *groans*
<DeathStar> 6* The nurse bounces away.
* Dias stands there gnawing on the sucker
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Well, I have to go do adult things.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks off, waving.
<Dias> Like Warren?
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snorts. "I will kick your ass."
<Dias> Wooooooooo. 6Make thrusting motions
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl throws a punch for his head again
<Dias> AIEEE! 6Dias ducks and turns, running.
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve" accidently clotheslines him as he steps out of a door.
* Dias hits the floor hard, he just lies on sprawled out on the floor
<DeathStar> 6* "Steve"'s gear mask seems to smile

<DeathStar> Location: The PAX
* Myria twitches in a corner of the shopping district...deprived of Omega Cokes and video games..
* Terra wanders past, then stops, turning to look over. "What's wrong?"
<Myria> ...no Omega Cokes...and no video games...make Myria...a dull girl...
<Terra> "Not enough money?"
* Myria nods...
<Terra> "I guess I could lend you a game.. but..." *pauses* "Well, if you want a drink, I can put it on your tab, I guess."
<Terra> "... how come you're so poor, anyway?"
<Myria> Ummmm....good question. *cross her arms and legs as she ponders*
<Terra> "You... don't know."
<Myria> Well...I've never really had any money...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks by in a disguise - a hot, sunglasses, and trenchcoat.
<DeathStar> *hat
<Terra> "What? No job or anything?!"
<Myria> No...
<Terra> "I guess you could work at the bar, maybe.."
<Myria> ...ummm...what?
<Terra> "Well, you need one, right?"
<Myria> ...well..I need money...but...
<Terra> "But?"
<Myria> But auntie may not approve...
<DeathStar> 6* A few moments later a Vapaad with a hat, sunglasses, and trenchcoat floats by
<Terra> "Why the hell not? If you need money... hey, wait... is this something about my bar?"
<Myria> ...ummm? *stares at the weirdoes walking by*
<Terra> "... what's with this station?"
<Myria> ...I don't know...
<Dias> 6A few moments later a red-headed man with a hat, sunglasses and a trenchcloat walks by.
<Terra> "... agh, the fashion police!"
<Myria> KIYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYAH! *lying kicks at the redheaded man in the trechcoat!*
<Terra> "... the hell?"
<Dias> 6The red headed man goes flying, crashing into several people and then into a garbage can
<Myria> Now to unmask him! *tries pulling off his face!*
<Dias> 6The man squeels in pain as Myria tugs at his skin. 1"HEY THAT'S MY FACE!"
<Myria> Come on off!
<Terra> "Just take the glasses off."
<Terra> "Not the face." x.x
<Dias> <Man> YARRRGG!
<Myria> Oh! *takes off the glasses*
<Dias> 6Loki just looks at her. 1"And is there any specific reason why you decided to rudely kick me?"
<Myria> ...you looked...sketchy.
<Terra> "What's with the fashion code here?"
<Dias> 6Loki just stares. 1"Intergalactic wars aside right?" 6He looks at Myria then over at Terra. 1"There was a sale going on.."
<Myria> ...actually...he still looks sketchy...
<Terra> "I guess... but is there a reason for sunglasses and trenchcoat on everyone?"
<Dias> <Loki> Kick me again and I'll press charges. 6He eyes her seriously then glances at Terra. 1"What's with all this persecution?"
<Terra> "Eh, it's nothing, I guess."
<Terra> "I just didn't expect it to suddenly get so popular."
<Myria> *m* ...still looks sketchy...
<Terra> "... whatever."
<Dias> 6Loki just clicks his tongue at Myria. 1"So do the Erusians plan on paying off their debts anytime soon?"
<Myria> Ummm...? Well...I have a thimble...and some bubblegum...
<Dias> <Loki> Well it's be a start. 6He holds his hand out
<Terra> "... maybe you should get that job."
<Myria> Ohhh...I don't have them with me...
<Dias> <Loki> Than we can hold off your payment until later. 6He turns and starts walking away.
<Terra> "And your aunt might disapprove of you actually getting a job? What's up with that?"
<Myria> Well..she says that I have other stuff to do!
<Terra> "Like playing video games?"
<Myria> No..important stuff...
<Terra> "Well, sure."
<Myria> ...but...that stuff doesn't give me money...
<Terra> "I can see why you're in debt."
* Myria nod nod nods...
<Terra> "So, what do you do, anyway?"
* Myria has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
* Jackieness has joined #taw
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Jackieness
* Jackieness is now known as Myria
<Myria> Me? Ummm...important...stuff...
<Terra> "Like?"
<Myria> Like...ummm...stuff...
<Terra> "I guess it's secret, huh?"
<Myria> YEs!
<Terra> "Mmmhmm."
<Myria> ...what...?
<Terra> "Nothing."
<Myria> ...ummm...well...I still need money though... *chews her lower lip*
<Terra> "Well, if you can't get a job, you're kindof out of luck."
<Myria> Maybe I could...sneak a job... *shifty eyes*
<Terra> "Sure. Why not? I'll try not to keep you for 'important stuff'."
<Terra> "Just, y'know, tell me before you disappear?"
<Myria> Ok!
<Terra> "Great."
<Myria> ...ummm...what do I do?
<Terra> "Hmm?"
* Xan|Bebacksooon is now known as Xanatos
<Myria> I mean..what do I do for money now since you are gigivng me something to do...?
<Terra> "Oh, just help out at the bar."
<Myria> Ok...
* Xanatos strolls by the two, hands pulled behind his back, eyes closed. Yet he is still walking forward?
* Terra looks over
* Xanatos stops midstep and pops one eye open, he tilts his head to glance at Terra and Myria.
* Myria has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<Terra> "What's up?"
* Jackieness has joined #taw
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Jackieness
<Xanatos> Testing my memory of this station. *he notes, referring to the closed eyes* What about you?
<Jackieness> Just helping?
* Jackieness is now known as Myria
* Xanatos arches a brow. "Helping? That's serious business. Aren't you Lady Arhnya's attendant too?"
<Myria> Ummmm...
<Xanatos> Such an overachiever...*he says, waving his hand*
<Terra> "She needs the money."
<Xanatos> Oh? Isn't the Erusian government paying you a very nice salary?
<Myria> ...no...
<Myria> Theron has all the money now...
<Terra> "... and he's not giving you any?"
<Xanatos> ...w...wait, why?
<Myria> ..ummm...cause...he says I don't spend money wisely...
* Xanatos tilts his head back, as if realizing. "I see. Well you should talk to him about an allowance. That way you can learn to do so."
<Terra> "Well, if you earn it yourself, you can spend it how you like."
<Terra> "Or that."
* Xanatos glances at Terra. "Yeah I think Terra is on the right track. The money you earn from her is all yours. Then Theron could probably give you an allowance too...if you didn't mention that you were working a side job." He winks.
<Terra> "Sneaky. I like it."
<Myria> Ok!
* Xanatos smiles. "Well you two enjoy yourselves. I'm going to continue my little training exercise here." He bows his head lightly and turns to walk off, eyes closed. He almost bumps into a person but he hops and twists around them, continuing on.
<Terra> "Oh, if you buy video games, might want to keep them hidden from Theron."
<Xanatos> *Theron steps up behind the two. "Keep them hidden from me, eh?"
<Myria> AHHHHHHHHHH!
<Terra> "Haaaah?"
<Terra> "How did you sneak up like that?"
<Xanatos> <Theron> I'm an Erusian Honor Guard. I'm very very sneaky.
<Terra> "Pretty impressive, anyway."
<Xanatos> *Theron slides his eyes from Myria to Terra. "You two getting into trouble?" He smirks.
<Terra> "Not really."
<Terra> "Hey, how come you don't give Myria any money?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina works out in the training room, pummeling the training drones in them with ease.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Because Miss Myria spends a large portion of her money on Omega products...and they are evil. Also, i'm her Guardian, and it is my responsibilty that she grows proper.
<Terra> "Evil? Wow."
<Myria> But I'm already grown! I'm 78 Earth years!
<Xanatos> <Theron> But you are still a child mentally. And yes, their products use brain washing.
<Terra> "Hmm.. I've never heard of that."
* Xanatos bumps into the door to the training room and then trips onto his face. "....ow."
<Terra> "Let me guess, Omega Cola is full of addictive chemicals?"
<Xanatos> <Theron> I do not know. But the video games use brainwashing techniques, which is why Miss Myria purchases nothing but Omega products with her money.
<Myria> Delicious Omega Cokes...
<DeathStar> 6* A NPC walks by Myria drinking an Omega coke
<Terra> "... well, they are popular..."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina doesn't break her concentration, ducking a blow from a training drone and uppercutting it
* Myria stalks after the NPC...
* Xanatos slowly pulls himself up to his feet and glances towards Kat, he whistles innocently and slides towards the door. Not wanting her to realize he just fell.
<Terra> "... uhhh..."
<Xanatos> *Theron slides up and grabs Myria by the coller. "...bad Myria."
<Terra> "You weren't going to steal it, were you?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrnia doesn't seem to notice him leaving
<Myria> ...awww...
* Xanatos rounds a corner, then pauses and rubs the back of his neck.
<Xanatos> *Theron lets her go and glances at Terra. "This is why I must be vigilant. Else I risk dishonoring the Erus."
<Terra> "Sheesh. She must really love the stuff..."
<Xanatos> <Theron> I do not understand why. I tried one and felt like I was going to vomit.
* Xanatos pulls his arms behind his head and moves off down the hallway again.
* Myria whimpers..
<Terra> "I don't like it that much either."
<Xanatos> *Theron hands Myria enough credits for one omega coke. "This is for your daily drink." He says, the smiles at Terra. "Good to see you without a bar attached to your hip."
<Terra> "I'm not always there."
<DeathStar> 6* A NPC walks by eating an Omega Cookie
* Myria scurries off to buy a delicious Omega Coke...then starts stalking NPC with cookie...
<Xanatos> *Theron, apparently too into Terra, doesn't notice Myria this time. "I realize this. But I believe this is just the firs time seeing outside of the establishment."
<Terra> "Yeah, I'm there a lot. Or watching the stars
<Terra> "
<Xanatos> <Theron> The stars? You're not referring to the Vapaad's star are you?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien suddenly feels creeped out
* Myria stalk, stalks...
<Terra> "Which one's that?"
<DeathStar> 6* NPC walks along.
* Myria sneaks and reaches for cookie...
<DeathStar> 6* The NPC puts the cookie in his mouth and chews.
<Xanatos> <Theron> I believe it is General Starr. *he says with a smirk*
<Myria> NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
* Terra rolls her eyes. "Very funny."
<DeathStar> 6* The NPC stares.
<Xanatos> <Theron> So the stars, eh? You enjoy space?
<Myria> ...I am too late.... *falls over*
* Xanatos slides to a stop and knocks on Erevis' door.
<DeathStar> 6* No answer.
* Xanatos frowns and keeps going, closing his eyes again.
<Terra> "Yeah.. I feel more at home out in space than anywhere else."
<Xanatos> <Theron> I did not know that. So I guess being on this station is like a dream come true, then?
<Terra> "Pretty much, yeah."
* Xanatos steps into the Omega store sometime later, eyes still closed, he pauses in the middle of the floor and then peeks his eyes open.
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos is standing in front of a giant posterboard cutout of Seraphna, holding an Omega Coke
<Xanatos> AH! *he falls back onto his ass*
<Xanatos> <Theron> I understand how you feel. Much of my life has been spent in space, aboard various Erusian ships.
<DeathStar> <Posterboard> Drink an Omega Coke!
<Terra> "You're the same way?"
<Xanatos> <Theron> What little bit of home that I had, was ravaged by the war. So when I heard that I would be coming to this station as a guard to Lady Arhnya and a guardian to Miss Myria, I was overjoyed.
* Xanatos goes pale and gulps. "That's the scariest thing i've ever seen."
<DeathStar> 6* The posterboard stares into his soul.
<Terra> "... yeah, I understand how you feel."
<Xanatos> <Theron> So do you pilot or anything like that? I believe I remember hearing you mention flying, but I'm not positive. I could be mistaken.
<Terra> "Yeah, I used to be a fighter pilot."
* Xanatos slowly slides around it.
<Myria> NRP: Sleepy time...
<DeathStar> 6* The other side has another image of Seraphna, staring at him as he leaves
* Xanatos shudders and hurries toward the counter.
* Myria has left #taw
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands at the counter, her eyes closed, apparantly asleep - or meditating - standing up
<Terra> "I wonder how long it'll be until I have to fly again."
<Xanatos> <Theron> Oh? Interesting. I have basic knowledge of flight, and was part of a squadron of gear pilots. Actually...I was one of the squad leaders. *he says modestly, rubbing the back of his neck* Until you have too? Don't you sometime wish you could just fly for fun?
* Xanatos picks up a stick and pokes Erevis.
<Terra> "I guess so."
* Xanatos puts on his best fake voice. "Howdy do, ma'am. I was wunderin if'n you culd help me out."
<Terra> "But, for as long as it's still peaceful here, I won't be doing."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't move.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Well. If you ever feel the desire to just take the shuttle out of a little flight. I could arrange it so you can take the Erusian shuttle. THough I would probably have to go along to make sure you don't wreck it or anything.
<Terra> "Really? Awesome."
* Xanatos frowns and leans over the counter to be nose to nose with her, yet still not touching. "Eeeerrrreeeeevvviiiisss."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't budge.
<Xanatos> *Theron nods, smiling. "It would be no problem at all. So please don't hesitate to ask."
* Xanatos sighs and grabs an Omega coke, he pokes Erevis with the can.
<Terra> "I'd love to."
<DeathStar> 6* The coke can suddenly repels into Xanatos' face and Erevis opens her eyes.
<Xanatos> GAH! *he grabs his nose and falls over*
<Xanatos> <Theron> Then just tell me a time and a date and you'll have free reign over the controls.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hello, Xanatos Durran. Do you wish to make a purchase?
* Xanatos just lays on the floor holding his nose, tears apparently coming to his eyes now.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis leans over the counter. "Are you okay?"
<Terra> "How soon can I go?"
<Xanatos> I..I think so. *he says, though it sounds like he is congested.* Is my nose alright? *he pulls his hands back, and his nose appears to be swelling*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is swelling.
<Xanatos> <Theron> As soon as 10 minutes from now. *he says, glancing at the time*
* Xanatos frowns. "...well that sucks. Do you have any ice?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No. But if you wish to purchase a cold can of Omega Coke, you can put it on your nose.
<Xanatos> ...You..would make me pay for it??
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
<Terra> "Well, 10 minutes from now is good."
<Xanatos> ...that's not very nice...i'm in pain. *he puffs out his lower lip*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Policy is policy.
<Xanatos> *Theron nods. "Very well. I will meet you in the hanger." He steps off after a slight bow and pulls up his datapad, going through procedure to check his shuttle out.
<Xanatos> ...can I put it on my nose till the swelling stops and then replace it?
<Terra> "See you there."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No. Customers would not appreciate knowing you touched it.
<Xanatos> But they don't have to know...
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis gives him 'the look'.
* Xanatos frowns and just pays for one, placing it on his nose. "Ahhhhhh." he exhales in relief.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis accepts the money.
<Xanatos> *Theron sends Myria informing him of his trip and then takes a left, moving for the hanger.
* Terra starts for the hangar shortly after
* Xanatos stands up and props himself up against the counter. "So...meditating on the job. I bet that's not allowed."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pretends not to have heard
* Xanatos tilts his head, which doesn't really have the affect is should, since he's holding a can of coke to his face. "Did...did you just pretend not to hear me?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Do you wish to purchase Omega Cookies?
<Xanatos> Are you...trying to change the subject!?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You do not like Omega Cookies?
<Xanatos> *Theron finally makes it to the hanger and moves over to the shuttle, using special codes to open it up, moving inside to get it warmed up.
<Xanatos> ...I'm not going to fall for that. Let's slide back to this whole meditating on the job thing. Was it to restore energy?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis smiles as a customer enters and moves over to sell her products.
<Xanatos> ....
* Xanatos eyes her, and shakes his head, a smirk sliding on his face. He idly picks up a scanner, much like the one his bought and points it to Erevis, scanning.
<DeathStar> 6* The scanner suddenly moves slightly to scan the posterboard of Seraphna
* Xanatos eyes it, then glances at Erevis, then the scanner again.
* Terra heads into the hangar, looking over the shuttle
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sells some coke to the NPC
<Xanatos> *Theron steps back to the back of the shuttle and glances down at the base of the ramp to Terra. "Ready?"
<Terra> "Sure am."
* Terra heads onboard
* Terra heads to the controls. "Ready."
<Xanatos> *Theron nods and presses the ramp closed button then moves up to sit down in the co-pilots seat. "So. You know how to fly an Erus ship?"
* Xanatos scratches his head, then idly goes to scan Erevis again.
<DeathStar> 6* The scanner moves to scan an Omega Coke.
* Xanatos narrows his eyes and goes to scan a cookie, then suddenly shifts it to Erevis at the last minute.
<DeathStar> 6* The scanner scans the NPC.
<Terra> "Not done it before. Is it much different?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis finishes and walks back over, staring at Xanatos. "You did not pay for that."
* Xanatos grumbles and crosses his arms. "I was testing it so I would know if I wanted to buy it or not."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then are you satisfied?
<Xanatos> <Theron> Just slightly. Let me show you. *he takes the time to carefully explain the different tweaks*
<Xanatos> Nope.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then you should put it back up.
<Xanatos> But I want to scan you.
Session Close: Mon Jul 30 00:00:00 2007

Session Start: Mon Jul 30 00:00:00 2007
Session Ident: #taw
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not recall giving you permission to 'scan' me.
<Xanatos> May I scan you?
<Terra> "Got it. Ready to go?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No. 6She puts up the scanner herself.
<Xanatos> *Theron slides his safety belt on and nods. "Take her away."
* Xanatos looks shocked and hurt. "But you didn't complain last time I did it."
* Terra flies out of the hangar. "This is a pretty neat ship."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I was unaware you did it. 6She raises an eyebrow.
* Xanatos arches a brow and suddenly looks nervous. "Oh..heh heh...I was...joking..." he rubs the back of his neck.
<Xanatos> <Theron> It is very graceful. One of out better designs if I do say so myself.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... 6She stares at him, then moves back behind the counter.
<Xanatos> So. *he claps his hands together, apparently finished with the omega coke on his nose.* When do you get off work, cause I'm been wanting to try out that ice skating sim.
<Terra> "I'm impressed."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You were not 'joking' about the ice skating sim? 6She notes.
<Xanatos> No ma'am. *he pulls his hands behind his back*
<Xanatos> <Theron> Good. I'm glad.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis just crosses her arms. "Do you not have a job to do?"
<Xanatos> Are...are you trying to get rid of me?!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That would be rude. 6She notes.
<Terra> "Erus makes really great shuttles."
<Xanatos> Actually I'm on call right now. So i'm doing my job. *he smiles*
<Xanatos> <Theron> I don't like to brag, but I believe they may be the best in the Universe.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes him
<Xanatos> What?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says nothing. Perhaps having nothing to say
* Xanatos taps his hand on the counter. "So what's with the Sera thing over there?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> She felt that it would make customers feel more relaxed to see an image of the creator of Omega products.
<Terra> "You know, I'd believe it."
<Terra> "What's it like, piloting a gear?"
<Xanatos> <Theron> It's a bit different from piloting a shuttle. It's more like controlling a very large body. Which after practice, mean making the gear an extension of yourself. I believe everyone should try it at least once.
<Xanatos> Well it scares me. *he notes, very seriously*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Why?
<Terra> "Well, I'd like to, sometime."
<Xanatos> I think it's because I thought Sera was one the station.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Why would that scare you?
<Xanatos> <Theron> Maybe if I ever have need for my gear. I can allow you to pilot it.
<Xanatos> Well...it's Sera...she just...you know.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... I do not understand. I thought you liked her.
<Xanatos> Oh she's fine. But actually, she doesn't look like that anymore. *he points to the Seraboard.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes, I know. But the design was beforehand.
<Terra> "Wow... I can't thank you enough."
<Xanatos> <Theron> It's no problem. Especially for a fellow lover of the stars. *he props his head up to watch her pilot*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> However, if she is fine, why would it scare you if she was here?
* Xanatos smiles. "She doesn't look like that. But her last video mail told me that she believes there is a clone or something of her old self running around. Just incase she showed up here."
* Terra flies around, enjoying herself
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ..... Very well.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Piloting comes naturally to you, I see.
<Xanatos> What?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis just give a human shrug.
<Terra> "I've had a lot of practice, but.. I guess so."
<Xanatos> *Theron nods his head once. "Well you're good. Probably better than me."
<Terra> "You're probably a lot better in a gear."
<Xanatos> <Theron> The cockpit of a gear is one of the few places that I call home these days.
<Xanatos> Well. I guess...I could go back to roaming the halls. But since you have no customers right now...I could...loiter a slight bit.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If you wish.
* Xanatos taps his chin then glances at Erevis. "Have you inquired to Sera about the supposed brainwashing techniques that are rumored to be in her games?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> There is no such technology she told me.
<Terra> "Our home is the stars."
* Xanatos arches a brow. "...she herself was brainwashed by V.A. not but a short while ago."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... V...A?
<Xanatos> <Theron> And so it shall always remain.
<Xanatos> The group responsible for breaking Wind from his stasis.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Oh.
* Ilya is now known as Ariel
<Xanatos> *Theron places a hand on her shoulder. "I hope you don't take this the wrong way. But i'm glad I met you. It's...comforting to have met a kindred spirit."
* Xanatos nods. "So yes. It exists. I believe she lied to you."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> She said there is no such technology in her games. 6She corrects.
<Xanatos> Ah. *he tilts his head back* Erusian Guard Theron strongly believes there is. I wonder if perhaps there is just a misunderstanding.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I would not know.
<Xanatos> We could technically hand the game off to a tech specialist to let him find out...but Darien wont le tme. Said it wasn't important right now.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis listens quietly.
<Terra> "I feel the same."
* Xanatos points to Erevis. "Can't you read someone's mind if they consent? To see if there has been any tampering?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... Yes.
<Xanatos> *Theron smiles lightly. "And you can use this shuttle anytime you like." He retracts his hand, not wanting to overdo things right now.
* Xanatos smiles. "I'll just get Myria's consent so you can get to the bottom of this once and for all.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ..........
<Terra> "Thanks a lot."
<Xanatos> *Theron nods his head once and glances ahead. "I was curious. When you were referring to the other guy a few days back. Is it too nosey to ask who this is? I don't really see you talking to any one guy, more than the others."
* Xanatos eyes her. "Well? Will you or not?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I would rather .... not.
<Xanatos> Wh..why?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ..... .... 6She inspects some dust on her counter.
<Xanatos> Oh don't do that again. Just be honest. Pwease?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I would rather not look into Myria's mind. She is ... strange.
<Xanatos> Oh. Very good point. I assume she is just young...
<Terra> "Ummm... it's.. a bit complicated."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ... perhaps.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Life is never really simple, is it?
<Terra> "No, it's not."
<Xanatos> But oh well. There goes that plan. Since I really don't know anyone else that might be "brainwashed" by these games.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6She studies Xanatos.
* Xanatos pauses and glances at her. "...yes my job has become to oddly and strangely peaceful that i'm hunting down stuff to keep me busy.."
<Xanatos> <Theron> But perhaps it would be easier to talk about it?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... You need a hobby.
<Xanatos> But I have like 5 of them.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You need more.
<Xanatos> ...you trying to tell me something?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. That you need more hobbies. You should pay more attention to what I say so I do not waste energy repeating it.
<Terra> "Well... maybe... I don't know."
* Xanatos smiles. "I was referring to the fact that maybe you're trying to tell me that I need more hobbies because I bother you too much now."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That would be a ... benefit.
<Xanatos> <Theron> I will not press. But if you wish to talk about it. Maybe my input can help.
<Xanatos> A benefit!? You're supposed to enjoy spending time with me!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .....
<Xanatos> ...if I really bother you...then just tell me to leave.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will keep that in mind.
<Terra> "It's just delicate."
<Xanatos> <Theron> I understand. I wouldn't want to open a can of...worms.
* Xanatos frowns and just leans against the counter, playing his his thumb. "Am I really that annoying? I joke around and stuff...but..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You are more ... odd than annoying. I believe that is the correct word usage.
<Xanatos> Odd? *he perks up* Well i'll take that as a compliment. You never want to be the same as everyone else. Being different means you're truly your own person.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> A .... accurate observation
* Terra pauses. "I guess if Shiva knows, and nothing bad's come of it, it's not too bad. Come to think of it, Darien's the only one who complained at all."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hides out under Ariel's desk today.
<Xanatos> And I'm proud to be my own person. Are you your own person, Erevis?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am not someone else.
<Xanatos> *Theron tilts his head. "Complained?"
<Xanatos> How very true.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at Xanatos.
<Terra> "I kindof have a symbiont inside me. Oh, he thinks it's dangerous."
<Terra> "Or thought it was."
<Xanatos> <Theron> Symbiote? I do not understand.
* Xanatos just flashes a smile at her.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis keeps a neutral expression.
<Xanatos> ...come'on...smile. *he pokes her cheek where her dimple would normally be if she smiled*
<Ariel> Strife> *gives Theron the finger*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... Do not poke me!
<Xanatos> *Theron blinks and eyes her hand, then her. "I'm sorry I offended you."
<Terra> "It's... sortof like another being living inside... hey, that wasn't nice."
<Xanatos> Oh? You gonna do something about it?
<Terra> "And also my hand."
<Xanatos> <THeron> I see. That must make matters very difficult.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6She lifts her hand up as her answer
<Xanatos> You would go to jail forever. Would it be worth it?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6She eyes Xanatos like he were a coward, but drops her hand. "Do not poke me." She repeats.
<Terra> "Well, I trust him completely. He's saved my life enough times that I can't not do."
* Xanatos smiles. "Fine. Fine. I was just trying to get you to smile. You look prettier than usual when you smile."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You place too much value on looks.
<Xanatos> <Theron> I see. It is...different. Does this being have emotions...for you?
<Ariel> Strife "......"
<Xanatos> Perhaps. But it's a part of life. So why shouldn't I?
<Terra> *a little more guarded now* "He cares."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will not smile. 6She notes stubbornly.
<Xanatos> Why?
<Xanatos> <Theron> Which I assume would be proof from the use of the middle finger.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am not in the mood to smile.
<Xanatos> Want me to tell you a joke?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No.
<Xanatos> Fine...*he frowns* Tell me something. Do you hate being human?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis blinks. "Where did that question come from?"
<Terra> "In any case, Strife's the person I care about most."
<Xanatos> ...i'm me. Where do any of my questions come from?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not know. Where do your questions come from?
<Xanatos> I think...the air...maybe the black depths of my brain.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Then I guess I have my work cut out for me. *he smiles*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Oh.
<Xanatos> You going to answer or avoid it like you do any other question that you don't want to answer?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I was hoping you would go with the change of topic.
<Xanatos> I know. *he smiles widely*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis does not smile.
<Terra> "Too bad."
<Xanatos> <Theron> Too bad?
* Xanatos sighs. "I assume you do. Especially because anytime I talk about humanity or things to do with physical appearances. You just get this tense aura."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
<Terra> "I don't think anyone can top Strife."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I simply do not see the point of physical appearances.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Then you have yourself a problem. Well...a problem is you ever plan on attempting a relationship.
<Terra> "I noticed."
<Xanatos> I see. Well. I've tried to explain, but then that almost had you convinced to go looking for a male that you find more physically appealing. So I guess i'll just drop it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is a wise decision.
<Xanatos> Me? Wise? Oh...go on. *he grins*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is all I had to say.
<Xanatos> Fine. *he huffs*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6She tilts her head.
<Xanatos> <Theron> A pity. *he notes, apparently sad from this revalation.*
<Xanatos> Hey...you have something on your shirt there. *he points to it*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't glance down. "You should find more updated pranks."
<Xanatos> But that's all I got! *he slumps*
<Terra> "I had a feeling it was something like that."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Perhaps this is why I do not laugh at jokes.
<Ariel> Strife> *descretely plays the world's smallest violin for Theron*
<Xanatos> <Theron> What was like what?
<Xanatos> Or maybe you don't have a sense of humor.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is entirely possible.
<Xanatos> I'd say about 100% likely.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... Whatever.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis busies herself with cleaning her counter now.
<Terra> "That you were trying to pick me up." *tries not to laugh now*
* Xanatos blinks. "You should try to tell me a joke. Maybe you're a comedian in hiding."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will pass.
<Xanatos> <Theron> I was not trying to...pick...you up. I just always look for the possabilities in life.
<Xanatos> Lame. *he frowns*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .....
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I find you annoying. You may go now.
<Terra> "Really? So it doesn't bother you that I like Strife more?"
* Xanatos laughs. "Ok. Ok. But you'll eventually have to answer my question about hating humanity. I wont forget." He grins and moves to leave.
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos' feet trip up on each other.
<Xanatos> <Theron> I just recently met you. I would hope someone that you have shared so much with would mean more to you. But, if one day we ever became close, I would think that your relationship with Strife would get in the way of anything truly meaningful. THus why I said, a pity.
* Xanatos slams head first into the floor. He twitches and groans.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis works on that dirty spot.
* Xanatos slowly pulls himself up to his feet and turns to Erevis. "...that wasn't nice."
<Terra> "So, you're not jealous?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Your fall did not look nice, I agree.
<Xanatos> ...I'm watching you young lady. VERY CLOSELY. *he points two fingers at his eyes and then points ony at her*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If you wish.
<Xanatos> <Theron> I have no place to be. But like I said. If we were to be anything more. Then I probably would be.
* Xanatos slides against the wall and crosses his arms, staring at Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis ignores him with great talent, it seems.
* Xanatos seems to have fallen asleep where he stands.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis closes shop during the time Xanatos sleeps and leaves him alone with the Seraphna posterboard.
* Xanatos has vanished from the shop, as has the Sera posterboard.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves down to the bar area to get some food, pulling her hair up into a simple pony tail.
<DeathStar> 6* A ... very, very long one.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Now perhaps we should be getting back. I fear for leaving Myria alone for such an extended time.
* Terra nods, smiling a little for some reason
* Xanatos steps into the bar, and plops down beside her. "You shoulda woke me."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You were suppose to be watching me.
<Xanatos> I was...in my dreams.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6She shudders a bit.
* Xanatos laughs.
<Xanatos> Kidding.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... 6Doesn't look like she believes him.
<Xanatos> Serious. Read my mind. *he points to his head*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I .... will believe you.
<Xanatos> Good. Cause my mind is a dangerous place.
* Terra flies back to the station
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I believe that, too
<Xanatos> *Theron has his arms pulled behind his head, resting. He seems to be at peace despite being shot down in an odd way.
<Xanatos> So I want to gossip about people. Wanna indulge me and says stuff like, 'Oh my goodness', and 'No she didn't.'
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Why would you desire to talk about other people?
<DeathStar> 6* A monitor mocks Strife
<Xanatos> To make myself feel better about what little bit i've accomplished in life?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... By talking about others?
* Xanatos shrugs. "I've heard rumors about those we left behind on earth. I just wonder how much it is true."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You should find out facts.
<Xanatos> What fun is that?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ..... 6She sighs a bit.
<Xanatos> Zephyr fired Chad from the spec ops unit. That is a fact. I wonder why?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not know why. You would need to ask one of them.
<Xanatos> Since my only connection to earth is Sera...my sources are limited. But apparently a lots been going on. Makes me feel guilty...since we've not had any major problems yet...*he pauses and slaps his head* OH CRAP!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> What?!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks concerned.
<Xanatos> *Theron slides his eyes to Terra after Terra lands. "Perfect."
<Xanatos> I...I think I just jinxed us...damnit...*he makes a face*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You... did what?
<Xanatos> I bragged about how good we have it...now something absolutely horrible is going to happen and it's all because I jinxed us.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You could cause bad things to occur by simply ... bragging? 6She looks skeptical.
<Xanatos> Just give it time. *he says, nodding. Very seriously*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ...
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pauses, as if waiting.
<Xanatos> Well it's not going to happen if you're waiting on. No it'll happen when we least expect it.
<Terra> "Landing is the most important part not to screw up."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> But ... are not expecting it to happen at all times?
<Xanatos> Perhaps if we can do, we can somehow keep it from happening.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... I believe you are indeed suffering from some sort of brain damage.
<Xanatos> <Theron> From the tales i've heard, you may wish to share that information with Chief Durran.
<Xanatos> Sadly this is a human supersticion. It goes hand in hand with walking under a ladder. Shattering a mirror and things of that nature.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. Then I am immune.
<Terra> "... maybe I should."
<Xanatos> Nope.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
<Xanatos> *Theron smiles and stands. "Well. Enjoy the rest of your day." he moves to leave.
<Xanatos> Nooooo.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Yes.
* Terra leaves the shuttle after Theron
<Xanatos> You're part human. So you cannot be immune.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not believe in your stupid human superstitions.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien works on his own ship when they arrive.
<Xanatos> HEY! Now I may stupid myself. But it is very rude to call our customs stupid just because you do not believe them. We're on a ship promoting peace and understanding. And you'd best learn to do so.
<Xanatos> *Theron breaks away from Terra to step over to Darien. "Working hard on your ship, General?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Very well. I will not say what I think outloud.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes, I am.
<Xanatos> <Theron> It's looking good. Do you require any assistance?
* Xanatos pauses. "Oh crap."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, no, no. I'm good. Besides, a man should never let another person touch his ship.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... what now?
<Xanatos> *Theron nods his head. "I will remember that. Well, since you're busy. I will leave you to your ship. Good day, General." he turns and steps off.
<Xanatos> Nothing nothing. *he waves a hand, then pauses and rubs his head*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ..... 6She stares at him, but assumes it's some other Earth thing.
<Xanatos> My...brain damage is...not making thinking easy right now...could you...massage my temples? It kinda helps me clear my head.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... How does that help you think?
* Terra walks past Darien quietly
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods to Terra, and goes back to his ship.
<Xanatos> It puts pressure on a sensitive area of my brain...and it oddly relieves some of the stress.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands up and moves over, jabbing his temples and massaging them.
* Xanatos winces and reaches up to her hands, gently showing her how to properly do it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eases up.
* Xanatos seems to just melt into her hands, eyes closing.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis keeps massaging his temples, idlely thinking about store items that she needs to order.
* Xanatos pops his eyes open one by one. "Thank you. I feel much better now."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am glad. 6She stops and goes to sit back down.
* Xanatos smiles lightly. "I was reading an article on the news feed on my datapad. And it said that 80% of all people said they rested better when they were sleeping with another person."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Is that correct?
<Xanatos> Yes. Massaging my temples caused me to think about it. Since that felt so good that I probably could have fallen asleep...again.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I understand. I will allow you to borrow Siawase tonight.
* Xanatos smirks. "I'm afraid Siawase might try to kill me in my sleep. The cat hates me."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> He does not hate you. He enjoys playing with you.
<Xanatos> Hmmm. But last time I tried to play with him scratched my face repeatedly...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Cats sharpen their claws.
<Xanatos> I understand that. But I wish he would do that on something other than my precious skin. *he pauses and gets a message on his datapad, he eyes it* Oh hmm. I actually have some work to do. *he slides up to his feet* Well i'll see you a bit later. *he slides over and gives her a kiss on the cheek before turning to leave*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says goodbye, and notes she feels rested after sleeping with Siawase at night

<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-586.7.9 - 1 Week, 2 Days After Episode 4-
<DeathStar> Location: Tokyo, Japan
<Dias> So how 'bout it Cheryl?!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Why should I spend my free time hitting you? 6She pushes Ben along in the park.
<Dias> Because you haven't done it in awhile?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It was boring enough last time.
* Dias crosses his arms, puffing up slightly. 1"You'd rather not help me progress as a fighter and overcome my adversary?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I don't see how my fighting style will actually help you.
<Dias> I figure if I can learn as many different fighting styles at once, I can surprise my opponent by switching over effortlessly.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl seems to consider it. "But, my hair is perfect today. I really would hate to mess it up."
<Dias> So what your telling me is that you won't help me because of your hair?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You don't like it?
<Dias> Oh no, I think it looks great. Very got for a mother.
<Dias> NRP: hot
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> What did you say? 6She holds up her fist, clenching it.
<Dias> I'm just as a mother, you're even hotter now.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh, is that right?
<Dias> NRP: just saying
<Dias> Aye. 6He tosses his hands behind his head as he walks.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And how, exactly, does being a mother make me hotter?
<Gabriella> * A very low, wispy voice, a bit cutsey says, "You have a certain glow about you."
* Dias looks over at her than motions to her bigger boobs
<Gabriella> * Angela falls into step with them.
* Dias slowly turns to look at Angela, blinking as he stars at her.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl glances at her as well.
<Gabriella> * Angela smiles softly at him, then to Cheryl. Rubbing her throat from the effort of speech.
<Dias> Stalker...
<Gabriella> Angela> "Just joining my sister for a walk in the park."
* Ari[AWAY] is now known as Ariel
* Dias looks at Cheryl. 1"You have another sister?"
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl plays with Ben instead of answering that. Angela technically isn't related anymroe.
* Dias scratches his head than looks at Cheryl. 1"So how bout it?"
<Gabriella> Angela> "I'm not new." *she looks over Ben fondly* "Just different now."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I still don't see why *I* have to fight you.
<Dias> Because you won't hold back.
* Gabriella is now known as Sky
* Sky is now known as Sky`
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> But, the baby...
<Dias> I'll leave Ben alone, it'd be too unfair for me to take on a baby.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I can't watch him AND fight
* Sky` looks to Cheryl.
<Sky`> *Angela
<Dias> Really? I thought you could do multiple things at once.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> .... That doesn't even begin to make sense.
<Dias> Or does it? 6He leans towards her.
<Sky`> Angela> "Dias, if she doesn't want to then she doesn't want to."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> No, it doesn't. 6She says flatly, crossing her arms.
* Dias taps his chin. 1"Yeah you're right it doesn't...
* Dias srunches his face as he thinks. 1"I know!"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> What now?
<Dias> Get the crazy lady to watch your baby. 6He points at Angela
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> .... *sighs* Will you watch Ben, Angela?
* Sky` nods and smiles softly, "Of course."
<Sky`> * Angela x.x
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks some ways away from Ben.
* Dias claps his hands together eagerly and follows after her.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl goes to a stop, turning to look at Dias. Long moments of time pass as she stares at him
<Sky`> * Angela turns her attention to Ben, smiling as she plays with the baby.
<DeathStar> 6* Ben narrows his eyes
<Sky`> * Angela pulls out a little bear out of her bag and gives it to Ben. "His name is Enemy."
<DeathStar> 6* Ben takes a crap, and begins to wail to be changed
<Sky`> * Checks around for a spare, Angela seems to have no problem changing him.
<DeathStar> 6* There are indeed spares.
<Dias> Alright bare with me. I'm going to try something new.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Whatever. You'll lose either way. 6She puts her hands on her hips.
* Dias begins to bounce on the balls of his feet as he holds his hands up and cocked out.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stares.
* Dias begins hopping forwards towards Cheryl as he closes their gap.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl keeps watching.
* Dias suddenly kicks off the ground and throws a right hook towards Cheryl's face, his left knee rising up towards her mid-section.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl slides a half circle to the side, then throws a boxer punch for the side of his head.
* Dias is nailed and he stumbles, quickly spinning around on the sidewalk.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl throws out a kick for him as he spins, not caring what side she hits.
* Dias throws his elbow up, letting it collide, he takes a step forward and throws a straight jab for her midsection again
<Sky`> * Angela finishes the terrifying task of cleaning up after the little one, "Heh... just realised... a hybrid dragoon... you're in for a fun life kiddo..."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl brings her knee up to let the jab collide. She reaches down to try to snag his arm before he retracts it, and hurl him toward the lake.
* Dias locks his grip onto Cheryl's arm as she whips him towards the lake and he pulls himself in, aiming to drive his knee into her chest.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl swings him downward so he hits the ground long before that happens.
* Dias hits the ground with a resounding thud and he grabs onto the ground and twists, swinging his legs out towards Cheryl's to trip her up.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl spins her momentum as she falls to put distance and land on her hands.
* Dias pushes himself up, he wipes dirt from his face as he takes a deep breath. 1"So what am I doing wrong?"
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stands up. "Eh?"
<Dias> No matter what I throw at you, you're always one step ahead and I need to learn how to keep that from happening.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Uh, well...
* Dias sits down in a squat as he looks over at Cheryl.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> My goal is just to circumvent all your attacks. Use your momentum against yourself. When you came at me head on, I slid to the side because I knew your attack momentum wouldn't allow you to recover in time to block an attack from the side.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> The second time, when you countered my throw, you locked yourself into a close distance with me by using my arm to bring yourself in, so I naturally just moved my arm to make sure you couldn't hit me.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And when you tripped me, I used my fall's momentum to land at an area and position of my chosing.
