<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-685.7.26 - 2 days after Episode 6 -
<DeathStar> Location: Tokyo, Japan
* Alicia is now known as Red_Fox
<DeathStar> 6* For the past two days, most of the news has been focused solely on Earth's invasion of the planet Sirtia. And it seems that most people in the polls approve of the action to liberate the people from the Tsivrixsh Empire.
* Angela watches the news on one of her monitors, leaning back against a work bench. "A mixture of pride and worry..."
* Angela looks over at Fox.
* Jackieness is now known as Cassandra`
<Red_Fox> "This seems familiar."
* Chad`Winters leans back from his work bench in his apartment. He looks over at the news and then Aya.
<Angela> "Does it?"
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna stands in the apartment as well, her arms crossed as she listens to the news.
<Red_Fox> "Yes."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slams a cushion into Marcus' face as he looks at the holovid. 1"Hey, turn some cartoons on."
* Angela pulls some of her hair back, a blue streak once again in her now far deeper gold hair, she finsihes a can of soda, putting it back down on the bench. "What're you thinking dear?"
* Marcus` glares at Dias. "This is serious! Pay attention!" He throws a cushion back at Dias.
* Chad`Winters leans back down, working on his modified scanner, several flashes of light appearing as he moves his soldering pen around
<Red_Fox> "Only that this is serious.. I don't know if it's for the best or not yet."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias punches the cushion back, sending it flying back at Marcus' head. 1"GAY."\
<Angela> "We won't until we see how the government handles giving the world back to it's people. But that's not our place."
* Marcus` ducks. "You're mom." he says, looking at the holo-vid.
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> He is a mother?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya helps Chad with her pen light.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slowly looks over at Marcus. 1"I am not."
* Angela looks at the new prototype, running a hand over the armguard. "We're just in the engineering department, making the tools that keep our soldier's alive."
* Marcus` pauses and glances at Sera. "When did she get here?"
<Chad`Winters> Nice job Aya. You'll be quite good in a few years at this.
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna ignores Marcus completely.
<Chad`Winters> She's been here since you two idiots woke up....No wonder why Ripple killed you 600 times.
<Marcus`> She's too damn quiet! I can't even here her breath.
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> I don't need to breathe.
<Marcus`> ...please tell me you're joking.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias suddenly swings his hand out to back hand Marcus across the face.
<Chad`Winters> Dragoons don't require oxygen.
* Angela runs her hand over a monitor, tapping a simulated button, the schematics for something vaguely humanoid appearing on it. "Besides, I'm supposed to be content with my little experiments, aren't I?"
* Marcus` gets slapped. "OW!" He sends a bunch for Dias' face.
<DeathStar> 6* Janus' interior alarms suddenly go off.
<Angela> "Great."
* Chad`Winters grabs the circuit board and snaps it in place, quickly working on soldering it in place.
* Angela pulls a rather large gun from the table, grabbing her comms, paging security. "What's the situation?"
<DeathStar> <Security> We do not know, sir!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias just shifts his elbow up into the punch letting it collide
<Angela> "Well then what are the alarms for?"
<DeathStar> <Security> We do not know, sir!
<Angela> "Then find out!"
* Marcus` widens his eyes in pain and pulls his hand back. "OW OW OW OW OW OW!"
<DeathStar> <Security< Yes, sir!
* Angela looks at Red, sighing deeply.
<DeathStar> 6* Security informs her that someone has breached the building and is in the labs.
<Angela> "Which ones? This entire facility is a labrynth of them."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya pops up behind Marcus. "You're weak."
* Chad`Winters snaps the two halfs of the scanner in place and slides and hooks it up to his datapad and begins working on programming it.
<DeathStar> <Security> *sighs* Maybe you shouldn't have built a freakin' labyrinth, then!
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Haha! Aya called you weak.
<Angela> "...We'll talk about next month's bonus after this. Track the intruder."
<DeathStar> 6* Security pops up the locations on her map. The intruder seems to be moving from areas to new areas in seconds.
<Angela> "Any traces of teleportation? I know that station is equipped with scanners."
<DeathStar> <Security> We cannot detect any traces of teleportation technology that matches our configurations.
<Marcus`> So since we've deemed that I can't handle Ripple and he loves to attack me...can I just hide in here or something?
* Marcus` seems to have gotten over the pain in his fist.
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> It would be best if you left the planet altogether, if that is your inferior attitude.
<Chad`Winters> And have him blow up my apartment. No.
* Angela grumbles, "Anything being disturbed?"
* Marcus` makes a face. "I just can't figure out what i'm supposed to do."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Aya, how weak is Marcus? 6He tilts his head at her.
<DeathStar> <Security> We believe he's stealing your equipment. ... and don't ask me what.
<DeathStar> <Aya> His power level is 9.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And what's your power level? 6He taps his chin
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> If you are too weak to save yourself, then you should just hide.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Over 9000!
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Booooyaaa! 6He holds his hand out to high five her.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya scrambles over Marcus to get to the hand.
<Angela> "Right, remind me to get more budget in security with all this damn theft lately."
<Red_Fox> "I wonder if I'll need to intervene..."
<Marcus`> ...I don't want to hide. I want to figure out what I was doing wrong. How come I always got cut? How am I supposed to fight someone that can make a portal anytime he is attacked? *he glances as Aya scrambles over his shoulder*
* Chad`Winters stands up from his desk as he let's his program finish downloading.
<Angela> "He hasn't been through here yet, and we keep the real toys at the Beta site and you know it."
<DeathStar> 6* The intruder doesn't seem to be going near the Beta area; probably doesn't care.
* Angela taps the comms again, the Beta site isn't in the Janus labs anyways, so that's good. "Are all personel accounted for?"
<Red_Fox> "I wonder what he's after."
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> You should learn how to beat a normal opponent before you attempt to take on Ripple.
<DeathStar> <Security> Yes, sir.
<Marcus`> Oh bah. I can take Dias out like it's nothing.
<DeathStar> 6* The target stops in the labs with equipment specifically designed for teleporters.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah, you should learn how to beat a normal...6He narrows his eyes as he holds his hand out to her.
<Angela> "Fox... we still have a dampener in there don't we...?"
* Chad`Winters runs his hands through his hair as he looks around at everyone.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya high-fives, then falls on her face.
<Red_Fox> "I think so, yes."
* Angela brings up the labs controls and activates it, the tech dampener acting as a focused EMP field. Designed as a precaution in case soemthing when wrong woth the teleporters.
<DeathStar> 6* The dampeners go offline almost immediately; an explosion rocks the base.
* Angela grips the workbench
<Angela> "Well, that didn't work."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Aya...Attack Pattern Snuggums.
* Red_Fox grabs onto the same. "What was that?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya leaps up and grabs Marcus in a hug.
<Angela> "Maybe we made it mad?"
<Marcus`> ACK!
<Red_Fox> "Obviously."
<DeathStar> 6* The teleporters begin to come online.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya leaps up and face hugs Marcus
* Angela ighs and hits the emergency channel, alerting the military of the intrusion.
<Marcus`> GAH! *he moves to pull her off*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias kicks off from his spot and punches for Marcus' stomach now.
<DeathStar> 6* It's clear that something big is being loaded into the teleporters.
* Marcus` umphs and slumps over, letting Aya hang from his face.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya slips off.
* Angela taps the comms, "Security, get down thre, I want this stopped NOW."
<DeathStar> 6* Security moves down there.
<Chad`Winters> Dias slips his foot down and catches her by the butt on his foot.
* Marcus` straitens up. "Was that supposed to hurt?"
* Angela heads down there herself, grabbing a second gun.
* Red_Fox follows
<DeathStar> 6* 10 seconds after the security agents enter, their lifesigns drop to 0.
* Angela stops, looking at her datapad.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Aya, attack pattern Netherlands.
<Red_Fox> "Any details on the attack?"
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> I suppose if you beat on someone enough, their skin will toughen up.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya hops up, swinging for Marcus' balls.
* Angela taps a few keys on something under her sleeve. Moving on.
* Marcus` pulls his legs together, stopping Aya's arm.
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna pauses, glancing around oddly.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps forward, throwing a fist for Marcu's face as his leg's close
* Chad`Winters glances over at Seraphna. 1"What's up?"
* Angela opens the door, moving to one side, glancing in.
* Marcus` slowly looks glances down at Aya and Dias's fist slides by the left side of Marcus' face.
* Chad`Winters glances down at his datapad. 1"....."
<DeathStar> 6* The teleporters at Janus send some things out as she walks in.
<DeathStar> 6* Bombs teleport into the room, exploding almost instantly. Seraphna turns, leaping forward and grabbing the child, and leaping out the window as the explosion ensures.
<DeathStar> 6* A man turns to face Angela.
<Angela> "Who are you!"
* Chad`Winters quickly moves to his datapad then leaps into the next room as the explosion hits.
<DeathStar> <Man> You are not worth my time.
* Marcus` widens his eyes and dives behind the couch.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias grabs Marcus and pulls him down behind the couch
<Red_Fox> "Too bad."
* Marcus` covers his head.
* Red_Fox aims her gun at the man
<DeathStar> 6* The explosion hits the couch, destroying it, and sending both men flying out a window.
<Marcus`> GAH! *he flails as he flies out the window*
<DeathStar> <Man> I wouldn't aim that at me unless you wish to die. 6He motions at the ceiling, where body parts and blood drip off.
<Angela> "Identify yourself, NOW!"
<DeathStar> <Man> I am Ripple.
<Red_Fox> "Why are you here?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias flips through the air beside Marcus as he falls. He kicks out at Marcus as they near the ground and changes the direction of their impact
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Oh, I'm done here. 6He turns his back to them, walking forward.
<DeathStar> 6* The second room shudders, then collapses in on Chad.
<Red_Fox> "You'd better be."
* Angela taps a few keys, cutting power to the room.
* Marcus` is hit by Dias, going wherever he intended.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple steps through a strange ripple effect, vanishing.
* Angela stares, "Did he just..."
<Chad`Winters> 6Marcus slams into a car and Dias slams into the road in a tumble and into the side of a car
<Red_Fox> "Great. Another one of those weirdos."
* Marcus` grunts and slides down the car, leaving a nice dent.
<Angela> "...Security, I want to know waht he took and where he sent it."
<DeathStar> 6* Security drips off the ceiling.
* Angela puts her comms down.
* Angela would assume they didn't all go down. -.-
<Red_Fox> "We may have to carry out the inventory check ourselves."
<DeathStar> 6* Anotehr security team speaks up on the comm. "We're not sure what he took, but we do know he teleported something to this address." 6They send the address to Angela.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias groans as he painfully pushes himself up from the ground
* Angela stares at it.
<Angela> "Oh god..."
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna stares at Dias and Marcus. She sets Aya down.
* Marcus` stirs, then slowly pulls himself up to a sitting position. "....anyone get the number of that atom bomb?"
<Angela> "Order a medical team to Chad Winter's apartment."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah...It was...405 Fu..GYAHH! 6He grabs his back as he jerks up.
* Marcus` pauses. "You alright Dias?"
<Angela> "I need that check, search our explosives and ammunition departments first."
<DeathStar> <Security> Aye, sir.
<Angela> "I have to file a report it seems..."
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> ... 6She glances at the building. "This is not good."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I just hit a car at a high velocity...How do you think I feel? 6He twists his back, sending out a resounding crack noise.
<DeathStar> 6* The building begins to crack and shake.
<DeathStar> 6* Then falls in on itself.
<Angela> "...And get a bloody crew in here to recover the bodies and clean up."
<Red_Fox> "... they'll be bloody once they're done, at least..."
<DeathStar> <Aya> Daddy!
* Marcus` pauses and glances around. "Where's Chad?"
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> In the building.
* Angela heads back to her office, grumbling, "Every god damned person on this planet seems to think this is thier personal armory..."
* Marcus` frowns, attempting to pull himself to his feet.
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, Marcus is stabbed in the kidney.
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna turns to see Ripple behind Marcus. <Ripple> Didn't I kill you already, boy?
<Marcus`> GAH! *he slumps forward*
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Son of a...6He looks up to see Marcus and takes a step forward then howls in pain.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple kicks him away.
* Marcus` is kicked, he rolls along the ground.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple leaps to the ground, rising.
<DeathStar> 6* A medical team begins to arrive. Ripple pauses, then throws a device to the left, and it ripples away, then attaches to the medical vehicle. the medical vehicle is torn apart.
<DeathStar> 6* All of the medical personnel's life signs go to 0.
* Angela orders some of her own to go assist Chad, and calls for help on military channels, giving out the address.
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna pulls out a sword and a gun, staring at Ripple.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You asshole! 6He growls as he begins shifting his body quickly to loosen back up.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> I think I will kill your friends, Dias. The more you try to resist me.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple pulls his warp blade down to Marcus' neck.
* Marcus` winces, laying there, bleeding to death.
<Chad`Winters> Dias pauses, eyeing Ripple dangerously.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> I wonder what you will do if I kill everyone you loved.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And what if I just kill myself? Huh?!
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Will you break apart? Or will you let go and finally be a dang-- 6 A car lands on Ripple.
* Angela looks over at Fox. "What do we do?"
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna pauses, glancing around.
<DeathStar> 6* The white haired man leaps down beside Dias. "You getting your ass kicked again?"
* Chad`Winters blinks, looking around then over at the white haired man. 1"NO!"
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Dias
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I had him right where I wanted him.
<DeathStar> 6* The white man jabs Dias in the back, realigning his spinal cord. "Of course."
<Red_Fox> "We could go and investigate."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias gerks, his face contorting in pain then relaxing. 1"Hey, you're good."
<Red_Fox> "Alternatively, we can stay back, and work on beefing up the security here."
<DeathStar> <White Haired Man> I specialize in death. 6He kneels beside Marcus, working on him.
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> Be prepared, Dias. Ripple is still here.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> He is?! 6He spins around, punching the air behind him.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple swoops out of nowhere, trying to take off Seraphna's head. She ducks and rolls away, turning to face him.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Just protect Aya.
* Marcus` glances weakly at the White Haired Man. "Hey...I know..." he can't finish the sentence...must be the death.
* Angela orders a shuttle prepped.
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> Very well. He is yours.
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna takes up a defensive position by Aya.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias turns to eye Ripple and claps his hands together eagerly.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple pulls out a second warp blade.
<DeathStar> 6* The white haired man drags Marcus to the destroyed medical van, feeling inside for medical supplies.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias blinks then leans down and picks up two peices of broken window and hold them out at Ripple.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> ... You really have not improved at all. Perhaps I should just kill you.
<DeathStar> 6* A Janus shuttle is prepped.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You caught me without a weapon, I'm just using what I can.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> You know, after I'm done here, I might just go visit your female friend.
* Angela heads out, boarding with Fox, something else following them aboard. She gives out the coordinates and orders the pilot to fly.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ....be more specific.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> A certain Dragoon.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Be more specific...6He eyes Ripple
<DeathStar> <Ripple> ... Rrrrr.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> What can I say? I get around.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple stabs the air, and his hand vanishes in a ripple effect. The blade comes in for Dias' throat, appearing 1 foot away.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias kicks back, hurling one of the shards of glass through the ripple below the blade
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple twists to the side as the glass appears flying under his arms.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> ... ...
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Impressive.
<DeathStar> 6 * Ripple brings his hand back.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slides back, stomping his foot. 1"I'm a quick learner."
<DeathStar> 6* The white hair man gives Marcus some morphine.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Like you should always watch your back.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Is that correct?
<Red_Fox> "He's going to be a problem, if we have to fight him."
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Thank you for the warning.
<Angela> "We just need to evac our... friends..."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And you should look both way's before crossing the street.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple begins to shift his hand from side to side, his warp blade making a humming sound.
<Red_Fox> "Lets hope so."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias begins walking towards Ripple now.
<DeathStar> 6* The white hair man does something, then slaps Marcus awake.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple waits patiently.
* Marcus` slowly blinks his eyes open. "I'd ask if this were heaven...but you're not some big breasted bimbo."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I didn't really appreciate getting blown out of Chad's 3rd story buidling.
<DeathStar> <White Hair Man> No, I'm not Cassandra.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> I'll try to mind my manners.
<Marcus`> Speaking of Cassandra...man she's hot.
<DeathStar> <White Hair Man> Your not her type.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Good. 6He squeezes his hand then tosses the second shard at Ripple.
<Marcus`> Yeah I don't have a vagina. *he sighs* Wait. How do you know Cassie?
<DeathStar> <White Hair Man> We're old friends.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple shifts his blade in the path, destroying it from existence.
<Marcus`> Oh. *he pauses* Wait, why aren't I dead? I just lost my second kidney and...well...
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias blinks then stops, eyeing it. 1"...Ok, that's not gonna be fair."
<DeathStar> <White Hair Man> Clearly someone likes you.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> You're right. 6He spin kicks for Dias' face.
<Marcus`> Well it's not god...unless he just likes to see me injured.
<DeathStar> 6* The man ignores Marcus, watching the fight.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias throws his elbow up to intercept, and then rolls under the leg, swinging his other elbow towards Ripple's backside
* Marcus` slowly glances to the fight, his face going pale. "...wait, Chad was in the house...can you pull him out?"
<DeathStar> 6* Dias sees a flash of white, then his elbow slams into Marcus' face.
<DeathStar> <Man> Chad's life signs are fine.
* Marcus` snaps his head back. "OW!"
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple turns. "You did tell me to watch my back."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias pulls his elbow back and turns looking at Marcus. 1"Now that is fuc...Totally sweet."
<Marcus`> ......
* Marcus` holds his now bleeding nose. "..."
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna suddenly attacks Ripple with weapons, forcing him to leap back and away. She dashes in, using her superior strength to swing her sword for his neck. Ripple holds up a warp blade to deflect.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Didn't the boy tell you to watch the child?
<Chad`Winters> 6A blade comes flying towards the back side of Ripple's leg.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple blinks as his leg is stabbed through. He glances down, seeing blood. Seraphna uses this moment to shoot him in the stomach.
<Chad`Winters> 6A second one slams into it driving it further in
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple knocks Seraphna away, limping as he grabs his stomach. "What the hell?!"
<Marcus`> Oooh. Give me a gun. I want to shoot him too.
<Angela> * A volley of blasts fire down on Ripple as the shuttle lands, a heavily armored one with Janus markings.
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple holds up a hand and the shots vanish into a ripple effect. The rain down on the shuttle suddenly.
* Marcus` winces. "Not smart."
* Chad`Winters steps out of the alley, covered in dust. 1"Now I'm pissed."
<Angela> * The shuttle defelcts it's own blasts fine with it's shields.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> .... dammit...dammit it all... 6* He steps backwards into a ripple effect.
<Marcus`> I didn't do it! *he calls to Chad*
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna looks around, twisting her foot to circle the area.
<Angela> * The shuttle ramp opens and Angela steps out, gun at the ready.
<Marcus`> You wont let him stab me again will you?
* Marcus` looks up to the white haired guy.
* Angela looks about and freezes suddenly, staring directly at the white haired man.
<DeathStar> 6* The white hair man stares at her boredly. "Yo."
<Chad`Winters> He's gone. 6He begins walking towards Seraphna and Dias, a slighty limp in his walk.
<Angela> "You..."
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna turns to face Angela, pausing momentarily as a look of interest appears.
* Angela gazes at him, then glares, "...You!"
<DeathStar> <White Hair Man> Me?
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias turns to look at them all. 1"He's gone...Tisk."
<Angela> "Adam!"
<DeathStar> <Adam> That's me. 6He shrugs.
* Marcus` glances from Angela to the MAN. "Adam? Well this gentleman saved my life. Twice."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias then looks over at Seraphna. 1"I thought I told you to protect Aya!
* Red_Fox wanders over quietly, glancing to Seraphna.
<Angela> "He brainwashed me and used me."
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> There was an opening. I took it.
<Marcus`> He had to brainwash you to use you?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You took my victory! 6He crosses his arms, insulted
* Angela glares at Marcus venomously.
* Marcus` pauses and glances up at the man. "Oh wait. That's bad."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, right. I brainwashed you. Water under the bridge, right?
<DeathStar> 6* Adam waves his hand in dismissal.
* Angela sighs, "For now."
<Angela> "Technically you used Sera."
* Marcus` blinks. "Waaaaait. You drop it that fast? So weak." He shakes his head.
* Angela looks over at the others, her gaze locking onto Sera.
* Red_Fox looks over to Sera. "Heh."
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna snorts, crossing her arms. "Weak."
<Chad`Winters> Good job Seraphna. 6He moves over to Aya.
<Angela> "Bigger interests."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya grabs Chad's leg.
* Chad`Winters winces slightly and leans down, picking Aya up. A black thin eye piece of his right eye.
<Red_Fox> "I wonder what he wanted."
<Marcus`> ....so...about my medical attention. I'm not going to accidently die in like 2 minutes, am I?
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, you'll be fine.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam slaps him hard on the back.
* Marcus` winces. "OW!"
* Chad`Winters looks at Red Fox then at Angela and back at Red Fox. 1"He was a Janus I'm assuming."
<Angela> "Yes."
<Red_Fox> "He invaded the labs, looking for something."
* Marcus` blinks and glances at Fox. "Well why didn't you stop him?"
<Red_Fox> "Because he teleports."
<Chad`Winters> So the bomb came from your guys place then...6He cliks his tongue.
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna turns her back on Angela. "Did your device work?"
<Angela> "He leveled a security team in around ten seconds. Why do you think we didn't stop him?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sneaks off like a ninja.
<Angela> * A blaster shot lands at Adam's feet.
<Angela> "Not done with you."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pauses. He glances over his shoulder. "Ooooh. That sounds kinky."
<Chad`Winters> Aye, it'll be upto the user's response time to react to it.
<Angela> "It won't in a bit."
<Marcus`> Oh well. I'm just glad Angie and Foxie decided to come save me.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam holds up his hands. "Go easy on me. I'm not use to rough girls."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Marcus, did you see how I elbowed you from like 30 feet away!
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> Of course. Can you make another for me?
<Angela> "Just be damn glad I can't remember the act, Adam."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, I'm gay. 6He confesses.
<Marcus`> No but I felt it.
<Angela> "The video says otherwise."
* Marcus` pauses and turns to Adam. "g...GAY!?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam puts his arm around Marcus. "For you, man."
* Marcus` narrows his eyes. "...Angie you can kill him now."
<Angela> "SIgh... one thing at a time."
<DeathStar> <Adam> You make me so sad.
* Angela walks over to Adam and looks him in the eye.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam looks Angela back in the eye.
<Marcus`> Yeah...if I could walk. I would run away right now...
* Angela knees him in the crotch.
<Chad`Winters> Aye. Get me the resources and I'll get one thrown together in now time now. 6He flips his eye sensor off.
* Marcus` winces. "Oh now that's just wrong."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam falls over, holding his treasure. "Well, damn. That turned me on."
<Red_Fox> "... no Marcus. THAT is wrong."
* Angela looks at him, thinking.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Holy shit, her knee actually made it that far up!
<Angela> "...Are you really Adam?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Of course I am. Want me to show you in bed?
<Red_Fox> "No."
<Marcus`> ...man he's an asshole. Get him Foxie! *he motions with his hands*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam rises, holding up his hands.
<Angela> "...No... I'e stared into those eyes plenty. Something is different."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Other girl, he was asking the other girl not you.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Well, let me brainwash you again and we'll see if you feel I'm different.
* Angela levels her gun at his crotch.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I'll take that as a no.
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> I understand.
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna stares at Angela beating up Adam.
<Chad`Winters> Serena Cran, this isn't the time for personal vendettas.
<Angela> "Okay, what is with you?"
<Marcus`> Man this is vetter than holovid. Don't you agree, Dias?
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> Yes. Killing potiental allies is so strategically sound.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I'm not getting me some of the Seraphna. You dig?
* Angela doesn't respond to the name Serena Cran.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, right, 'Angie' now. 6Quotes with his fingers. "Rape victims are so funny."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Say, you know what's even funnier?
* Marcus` pauses and glances at Dias, "What's that?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias suddenly grabs Marcus' nipple and twists hard.
<Angela> "...Mmm... yuou should be crazed and brain damaged."
<Angela> "What happened?"
<Marcus`> GAYYYYY! *he punches Dias, then winces from the sudden movement*
<DeathStar> <Adam> I got some of you and it cured my soul, baby.
<Red_Fox> "..."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias howls and responds by grabbing Marcus' other nipple and twisting.
* Angela keeps the gun pointed at Adam's crotch.
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> ... I do not see how we can win against Ripple. 6She eyes all their allies.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Is this a date?
<Marcus`> AHHHH! STOP! *he grabs Dias hand and tries to get him off*
<DeathStar> <Adam> Before I was a vampire, but now I'm a vampire with a soul. Get it?
<Angela> "I should kill you for what you did to me."
<Red_Fox> "We hit his weak spot, and remove his advantages, obviously."
<Angela> "What you did to Eve."
* Marcus` pauses and glances at Adam, then her bursts out laughing.
* Chad`Winters eyes the idiots. 1"Agreed." Pulls out his gun and aims firing a shot right into Angela's gun.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oooo, boss man has spoken.
* Angela doesn't flinch, but the gun flies away.
* Red_Fox glares at Chad
<Marcus`> Wait. Why is he boss? I should be boss!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias let's go as he stares.
<DeathStar> <Adam> You only got a kidney and a half.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Stop talking Marcus.
* Angela turns her glare to Chad.
* Chad`Winters holters his gun. 1"Save your glares for someone who cares."
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna stands beside Angela, arms crossed.
<DeathStar> *Chad
<Red_Fox> "I'm glad you volunteered to be bait."
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> You should go back to making your toys and leave this to us.
<Marcus`> ....ok. No one listens to me anyway, Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam backflips away as Angela turns.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks at Marcus. 1"I'm sorry, did you say something.
* Angela glares at the Faux Sera now.
<Marcus`> I hate you.
<Angela> "Clearly I can't."
* Chad`Winters shifts Aya in his arms. 1"You've seen how dangerous Ripple is first hand now. Neither of you are capable of holding your grounds against him."
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> Of course you can. You've already given up your powers once. Walking away should be in your very nature.
<Angela> "Fuck you."
<Marcus`> Whooooa. Language people We have a child here.
* Chad`Winters covers Aya's ears. 1"Watch your language."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya gasps.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Ooooooooh. 6He just covers his mouth.
<DeathStar> <Aya> She said fuck you!
<Red_Fox> "I think we have bigger things to worry about than an f word."
* Chad`Winters sighs. 1"Aya, what did I tell you about that word.
<Marcus`> You're warping young Aya's mind!
<DeathStar> <Adam from far away> Rape victims can't help themselves.
<Angela> "You people obviously need help, and the others are all busy storming a goddamned keep."
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> Chad. We should find a new place to set up.
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna keeps her eyes glued on Angela.
* Chad`Winters narrows his eyes. 1"What did I say about your language around my daughter?"
* Red_Fox fires a single shot in Adam's direction, not intending to hit him, more to scare him enough to shut him up
<Marcus`> ...and we need to teach Angie her manners. Serious.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya gasps. "She said goddamn!"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam runs off out of sight.
<Angela> "You should, staying here is a bad idea. I have a few safe houses yu can use."
* Chad`Winters pinches the bridge of his nose. 1"Aya, you will not repeat that word."
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> Ripple already used your organization once. I do not feel safe there.
* Angela seems to be paying Chad's glares no mind, she's not impressed with him.
<DeathStar> <Seraphna> I have a place, Chad.
<Angela> "They aren't Janus safe houses."
<Red_Fox> "We're intending to beef up the security."
<Chad`Winters> I prefer to stay away from Atleans. 6He looks at Seraphna and nods.
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna nods. "Then I will lead the way."
<Angela> "I can help..."
<Marcus`> Wait, who's gonna help me walk!? I'm an injured soul!!
* Red_Fox sighs
<Chad`Winters> You'll just get in the way. 6He looks over at Marcus and Dias. 1"Let's go before he recovers with another bomb attack."
<DeathStar> 6* Seraphna helps Marcus up to his feet, then begins to walk away. She spares only one glance at Angela.
* Angela looks like she's recieved a blow to the gut.
* Angela looks back, her look... distant.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks at the two girls and shrugs. 1"See you crazy hot girl and stalking hot girl" 6He follows after the otehrs
<Marcus`> Thanks Seraphna. *he winces and begins to walk, he then throws a hand up.* Take it easy Angie, Foxie. You two purdy thangs take it easy.
<Angela> "Yeah... be... careful..."
* Angela looks down at her hands and sighs.
<Red_Fox> "I was planning on taking Ripple out of the picture, but fine."
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFt-
<DeathStar> Location: Sirtia
<DeathStar> 6* The military has successfully taken over the planet and managed to bring order to it in a short time.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sits down, drinking some native drink. "So, Em, feeling good about what we've done?" 6She motions at the happy atmosphere.
* Chad`Winters is now known as SpOC
* Marcus` is now known as RandomTrooperZ
<Ariel> Em> *nods, and manages a small smile* "Managed to keep from hurting any innocents... yeah, I'm happy about that."
<DeathStar> 6* A native girl runs up and hands Cassandra some flowers - which is rare in this area. She smiles.
<SpOC> Here Here! 6He takes a drink, his mask still on.
* RandomTrooperZ is now known as SpecOpsA
<Cassandra`> Thank you.
* SpecOpsA justs holds a drink up in the air, then takes a swig.
* Cassandra` takes the flowers...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren walks up, having arrived. "Well done, everyone."
* SpOC stands up and salutes Warren
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl steps up beside Warren. "Hey, ya'll."
<DeathStar> 6* The girl smiles and runs away.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Well, someone's a hero."
* SpecOpsA stands up quickly and salutes to Warren too.
<Cassandra`> Guess things weren't all that peachy under the Tsiv.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...really now?"
* SpOC sits down and takes another drink of his mug.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "I never would have thought."
* SpecOpsA sits down, his idle hand plays with a coin.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I thought I would give you all a briefing.
<Cassandra`> Just stating the obvious, dear.
<DeathStar> <Warren> We have decided to build a station outpost around the planet to help hold this planet so the Tsivrixsh cannot come back in and take it over. We already have Janus personnel transferring over to get to work.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'm already bringing a sizeable portion of the fleet here to defend the planet.
* SpOC just stares at Warren through his mask, listening
<DeathStar> <Warren> Right now we're leaving a sizeable garrison here to defend the planet. You guys will be able to go back home, however.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Do you think the Tsivrixsh will declare war?
<DeathStar> <Warren> I do not know. Right now, our ambassador is in a meeting with them.
<SpOC> Poor guy.
<Cassandra`> The Tsiv don't care about the planet...what they do care about is losing face over the planet.
<Ariel> Em> "...I feel bad for the ambassador. But... we helped the people here. Hopefully it won't go to war."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'm sure Darien loves the challenge.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I hope they try something stupid. ... 6Her tone sounds dark. Her hatred from the Tsivrixsh leaking into her words.
<SpOC> If they do, we'll just beat them down again. 6He holds his mug out to Zephyr
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Aye! 6She holds up her mug and presses it again SpOC's.
* SpOC pulsl it back and takes a deep drink, through his mask again
<DeathStar> <Warren> Well, I'll leave you all to your celebrating. I have things to do.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren turns and walks off.
* SpecOpsA plays with his coin, watching his captain and SpOC, if anyone could guess he is smiling under his mask.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *looks to Cass* "I hope you're more serious about this, than the others."
<SpOC> To a flawless victory. 6He thrusts his mug into the air
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Victory. 6She does the say, motioning Em to join.
<Cassandra`> I'm not in the mood for celebrating...lost too many men on that feint attack.
<Ariel> Em> *joins the toast*
<DeathStar> 6* Warren walks off into the shadows to brood.
* SpecOpsA also joins the toast.
<SpOC> We coudln't have done it with you Em. 6He points at her.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl watches them, shaking head once with amusement, then turns to go herself.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Hear hear. To Em!
<SpecOpsA> Em!
<SpOC> To Em. 6He thrusts his mug up again.
<Ariel> Em> *sloaches, trying to avoid attention*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr grins, gently punching her arm. "Don't be bashful."
<SpOC> Buck it up woman. You not only saved innocent civilian lives but you saved our lives. That's the most important part.
<DeathStar> 6* Sestuna's amulet has vanished some time after the battle.
<Ariel> Em> *shakes her head* "I didn't do any more than my part..."
<Ariel> Setsuna> *is trying not to think about that. She didn't take it off*
<SpecOpsA> Oh she's modest along with bashful.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> That's our Em.
<SpOC> And she's got looks to kill, eh?
<SpecOpsA> Really. You seeing someone Em?
<Ariel> Em> W-wha?!
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr smiles a bit.
<SpOC> Of course she is. How couldn't she have a man in her life.
<DeathStar> 6* Pope steps up, blowing smoke in the men's faces. "Hello, mates."
* SpOC eyes the man who dares enter the Special Ops Circle
<Ariel> Em> *blushes* "I, um... I am s- Pope!"
<DeathStar> 6* Pope wears a fighter pilot outfit, and is smoking a cig.
<DeathStar> <Pope> Fags? 6He asks.
* SpecOpsA eyes Pope as well, but then relaxes as he sees Em knows him. "This must be the one."
<Ariel> Em> "What are you doing here?"
<DeathStar> <Pope> Came to see you, luv.
* SpOC slides his hand towards his gun as he glances at Zephyr
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shakes her head once.
<DeathStar> 6* Pope sits down without being asked.
* SpOC nods then leans forward, cupping his hands together.
<DeathStar> 6* He has a nasty scar on his forehead.
<SpecOpsA> Nasty Scar. *he notes, playing with the coin again*
<DeathStar> 6* Pope eyes the two men as he smokes his cig. "Aye. I took a shot to the head."
<SpecOpsA> Lucky. *he says, eyeing Pope furthur*
<DeathStar> 6* Pope blows out the smoke, then leans back, smiling. "Let me buy you mates a round."
<Ariel> Em> "...lucky?"
<Cassandra`> ...wanna get some rest?
<SpecOpsA> Lucky is lived. *he expands, the brightens up* I guess you're alright then. *he nods, taking his drink*
<DeathStar> <Pope> Now we can talk about how my luv did in her mission. 6He nods.

<DeathStar> -Begin Part 2-
<DeathStar> Location: PAX.
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> This is an OUTRAGE. 6She shouts into Darien's face during the meeting.
* Shiva` cups her hands before her as she sits in her chair. Loki leans back in his as he watches
<Elayne> * Kieran floats in a corner, watching everyone quietly.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans back, blinking his eyes once. "Please try to remain calm, Ambassador Shretrav."
<Xanatos> *Theron stands behind Arhn with his arms crossed.
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> CALM? Your people have engaged in an act of WAR.
* Ariel monitors the procedures from ops, GLAD she doesn't have to be there.
* Elayne yawns a little, sitting next to the Ridarium ambassador.
* Myria passively observes...
<DeathStar> 6* Elayne has stone floweres.
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav spins on Elayne. "Is this meeting BORING you, Ambassador? Do you find the lives of 20,000 dead to be a trivial matter?"
* X1 has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Megumi holds her hands over her elongated ears, finding them to be quite the irritance this time around. "...Unnh..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien cups his fingers together, glad to have a moment of peace where someone else is yelled at.
* Elayne looks at her impassively.
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav sneers, her red eyes blazing. "I will keep that in mind when it comes to matters of peace and trade with your people."
<Shiva`> Ambassador Shretrav, I am sure that Ambassador Starr had no beforehand knowledge of these events. Is that correct Darien?
<Elayne> "Keep in mind the numbers of my people yours have killed in the past then. While I am agitated by an act of war while Earth PROMISED to promote peace..."
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> I see. So peace matters little to you because your people died in the past. 6She points at the whole assembly. "This entire PAX is nothing but lies."
<Terra> 6* Meanwhile, the PAX is hailed. "Greetings. I am ambassador Vyssa of the Syin. I would like to meet the commander of this station."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Now, Ambassador Shretrav, please allow me to explain the situation here. 6He says, trying to speak calmly, but loudlyh.
<Elayne> "So you agitate it further with this yelling, then accuse innocent ambassadors..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien closes his eyes. God, Elayne is going to push a war.
<Shiva`> 6Loki leans over to Shiva and makes a motion of two cats clawing at each other and only get's a stern look in return.
<Myria> ...The Erus Ascendancy requests that order be restored to these proceedings.
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> I am sorry if I am a little angry at the death of my people. I will TRY TO KEEP THE NOISE LEVEL DOWN FOR YOUR DELICATE SENSES.
* Ariel answers the comm, "This is Commander Ariel of the PAX."
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav stares at Elayne, daring her to speak, ignoring Arhn.
* Megumi squeezes her poor head and sways from the grating level of shouts.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "I request an audience."
<Elayne> "Why thank you for your consideration." *she sits back and crosses her arms* "I concur with the Erus."
<Shiva`> Ambassador Shretrav, please allow Darien to explain.
<Xanatos> 6* The Famfrit ambassador seems to be keeping silent for once, perhaps he feels he has no need to be part of this conversation.
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav turns back to Darien now.
<Terra> * Vyssa is a slightly nervous-seeming reptilian female, seemingly new at this.
<DeathStar> <Darien> My people were pressed upon by the people of Sirtia to liberate them from an unjust rule over them. We merely were seeking to gain their independence.
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav turns even blue-er with rage, if that's possible.
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> Liberate them? They were part of the Tsivrixsh Empire for 70 years and we treated them justly.
<Shiva`> 6Loki eyes Darien, studying him deeply.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien presses his fingers together, looking strained.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Earth was just doing what it felt was the correct thing.
<Ariel> "Should we be expecting you, Ambassador?"
<Xanatos> *Theron watches Shretrav closely, studying her body language, waiting for her to attack like he expects.
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> This is an outrage. I demand this counsel place sanctions upon Earth.
<Elayne> "I second."
<DeathStar> <Ridiarium> ...
<Terra> <Vyssa> "We are new to this area. However, we hope we have given the correct consideration to procedure."
<Elayne> "Differences aside... the humans had no business in this matter. It should have been brought to this council for negotiations."
<DeathStar> 6* A woman steps into Xanatos' office. "Excuse me? Is Security Chief Xanatos Durran in here?"
* Shiva` eyes Shretrav, studying her. 1"I commend your rationality Ambassador Shretrav."
* Xanatos slowly looks up. "Humm? Oh yes. I'm Xanatos." he stands. "Can I help you?"
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav crosses her arms, looking satisfied now. "I demand that we place trading sanctions upon Earth until they exit Sirtian space."
* Ariel nods, "Very well. We will grant you access to the station until a proper audience can be arranged."
<DeathStar> 6* The woman, looking to be in her early thirties, stares at Xanatos. She steps forward. "My name is Maria Burton."
<Myria> ...while the Erus Ascendancy sympathizes with Earth's desire to see justice...we must condemn such unilateral action as an irresponsible, if not dangerous, act.
<Xanatos> Ok. Should I...know you?
<Terra> <Vyssa> "Thankyou. This is greatly appreciated."
<DeathStar> <Maria Burton> ... 6She pauses. "Excuse me, where are my manners. Hello." 6She holds out her hand.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien says nothing.
<Shiva`> Agreed.
<Xanatos> <Famfrit Ambassador> The Famfrit agree. The thought was important, but the style was poor.
* Ariel provides docking clearance and coordinates.
<Terra> <Vyssa> *moves to dock*
* Xanatos shakes her hand. "Nice to meet you. Now what can I do for you?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I will, of course, take the council's decision back to my superiors.
* Megumi seems a little wounded by the Famfrit ambassador taking a side, edging a bit away in surprise, then she culls and seems to be shaking over something.
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos would feel a prick in his hand. "You can die."
<Elayne> * The Vapaad Ambassador says nothing.
* Xanatos blinks and looks down at his hand. "What the
<Xanatos> ?"
<DeathStar> 6* The woman stares at him with pure hatred. Xanatos could feel his body getting warmer and heavier.
* Ariel informs the ranking NPC in ops to inform her if anything happens, and heads down to greet the ambassador.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands up. "I bring this meeting closed on the council's decision to santiction Earth."
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav turns and storms out, anger radiating from her body
* Xanatos taps the emergeny comm link. "Durran to all personnel, I've been injected with something I need...hel" He coughs and falls forward.
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos can't even speak.
<Shiva`> Well that was a nice and unexpected. 6She looks over at Darien
<DeathStar> 6* The woman stares right into his eyes as he dies.
* Xanatos widens his eyes, he slumps forward and slams into the floor.
<DeathStar> <Darien> And justified. 6He mutters.
* Myria rises and moves over toward Darien.
<Terra> <Vyssa> *heads onto the station*
<DeathStar> 6* The woman adjusts her outfit, then slides Xanatos behind his desk. "This is for my husband and child, you bastard." 6She turns and walks out.
<Myria> ...I am sorry...you have been left...holding the bag.
<Shiva`> So you stand behind what Earth did? 6She looks at him, curiously
<DeathStar> <Darien> Of course not.
<Xanatos> *The Famfrit Ambassador rises and moves out of the meeting.
<DeathStar> 6* The Ridiarium leaves after Shretrav.
* Elayne heads out after the Ridiarium.
* Myria then turns and leaves the council chamber...
<DeathStar> <Darien> This entire thing is so deeply and profoundly wrong.
* Ariel sends a note to Darien, about the arrival
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes it. "Oh Christ, we have a new ambassador arriving today."
<Shiva`> So you...6Loki interupts her.
<Shiva`> <Loki> Bluffed then? Eh eh?
* Megumi waits until the Famfrit ambassador has left the chamber before she gets up, still on a reclusive twitchm, then calls over "D-Darien..?"
<Elayne> * Kieran floats near Darien.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks very tense, as if he wants to just freak out. He suddenly calms down when Megumi speaks up, and glances up. "Yes?"
* Megumi walks over slowly. "I... I d-don't know about the details."
<Megumi> "But i-if it was t-truly to gain independence for that p-place..."
* Ariel arrives at the docking station, and bows her head to Vyssa as she sees her. "Welcome to the PAX."
<Shiva`> Loki, you know what to do with the board members. 6Loki just shrugs and throws his hands up, walking off.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "It is a good station."
<Megumi> "Th-then shouldn't they have a say in the proceedings r-regarding their planet?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I agree. But something tells me that Earth has no intentions of leaving that planet.
* Xanatos has his eyes wide, his body twitches and pain courses through his body, he can't speak, he can't move. All he can do is lay there in agony.
<Myria> ..Theron...?
* Terra is now known as Vyssa
<Shiva`> It'd be pointless, the Tsiv would take it back.
* Megumi rubs the back of her head. "Th-that's what I mean, ac-actually..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> If only it were that black adn white.
<Vyssa> "I hope this wasn't a bad time."
<Megumi> "If E-Earth says they've set them i-independently, then they can bring an ambassador from it, right? Th-the ambassador could attest to their request for aid and then r-request that Earth stay on as security..."
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos begins to hallucinate as he lays there. His various victims faces seem to be laughing at him.
<Shiva`> I just hope the Tsiv decide not to use your explanation as justification to free other planets.
<Ariel> "It is... well intended."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien smiles at Megumi, patting her on the head. He seems infinitely sad.
* Xanatos watches, regret in his eyes, though there is nothing he can do. His mouth moves, but nothing escapes his lips.
* Vyssa nods. That answered her question well enough.
<Elayne> Kieran> "...Lacking sustenance the world of Starr will seek out it's meals with a hunters desire..."
* Megumi is infinitely confused. She doesn't see the problem in this idea except that it would need to be done quickly before negotations broke down further at this circus of a council.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I will go greet our new ambassador. We might as well pretend we're about peace here. 6He walks out.
<Xanatos> *Theron blinks and looks to Myria. "Yes?"
<Elayne> * Kieran floats after Darien.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Oh right. Sorry m'lady. *he moves after her*
* Shiva` stands up, running her hand through her hair.
* Megumi looks after Darien, then after the exit her ambassador took. She pauses and seems quite lost at this point, not particularly enthralled with either direction being more appealing than the other.
<DeathStar> 6* The sound of a baby can be heard in the room with Xanatos.
* Myria continues to her quarters.
<Myria> Your evaluation of my performance today?
* Xanatos attempts to look around and find the baby, though he can't move far.
<Xanatos> <Theron> You did what was right. I just wonder why Earth chose to do this now.
<Ariel> "Are you here alone?"
<DeathStar> 6* Certain holovids on the station talk about the victory on Sirtia, and how Earth supports it. People all seem in favor of liberating the planet.
<Myria> ...I am uncertain...
<Vyssa> "For now, at least."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps into the hanger bay, slightly out of a breath. "Hello. I'm General Starr."
<Xanatos> <Theron> It was illogical. Unless there is something else behind it.
* Xanatos tries to claw his way out into the hallway.
<Vyssa> "I'm glad to see you, General."
<DeathStar> 6* Each inch is pure agony.
<Myria> It is still a mystery for now.
<Elayne> Kieran> "...The Starr journeys to the Serpent with the company of the Sage..."
* Vyssa still seems a little nervous, though it seems more stage fright than anything
<Elayne> * Kieran seems to greet Vyssa.
* Megumi exits the council chambers, wandering aimlessly away from any direction Darien or the Famfrit entourage have taken. She thinks about heading for the bar! ...But can't remember where it is.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien seems ready to freak out again. Killing humanity was easier to save lives.
* Xanatos seems to be writhing in agony with each inch, but through blood read, tear stained eyes, he struggles on.
* Vyssa pauses. "That is true."
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos claws out into the civilian deck hallway.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I want ... to welcome you to the PAX. Ariel here will take you to your quarters.
* Xanatos lays there, occasionally convulsing in pain, he can't make it any furthur.
<Xanatos> <Theron> ...so it would seem. Sorry I lost focus, I was just contemplating on it all.
<Vyssa> "Thankyou. I trust this hasn't been trouble?"
* Shiva` eyes the holovid, then keeps moving
* Megumi continues her aimless traipsing about the station.
<Elayne> Vapaad> "...Safety for the Serpent will be found in the claws of a Dragon..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Of course not. Well, if you'll excuse me. 6He turns and walks out. Not much of a welcome.
* Myria nods and enters her quarters...
<DeathStar> 6* Megumi walks over Xanatos.
<Elayne> * Kieran floats after Darien
* Vyssa files that piece of information away for further reference.
* Megumi pauses for a moment, wondering what the soft squish was.
<Xanatos> *Theron steps in as well and moves over to slump down into a chair, his head propped onto his hands.
* Megumi holds and turns to examine the floor. "O-oh! I-I'm s-sorry!"
* Xanatos can't even moan in pain, yet all he can do is writhe in agony.
<Megumi> "Wh-what are you doing on the floor though!?"
* Xanatos looks up to Megumi, if she knew anything, she'd see that pure agony in his eyes. His mouth opens but nothing comes out yet again.
* Myria removes her mask...
<Megumi> "A-aren't you that guy that was with-- O-oh! Oh!"
* Megumi panics momentarily, flailing left to right. "Oh!"
<Megumi> "C-computer! Medic! Help! S-something!"
* Ariel shakes her head, "Don't hold it against him. With recents events... it's a rough day."
<Xanatos> <Theron> ...this is trouble. A war seems to be on the horizon. One we cannot afford to be a part of.
<Vyssa> "I can tell.."
<DeathStar> <Computer> Sending medical assist to your location. Do not move.
<Vyssa> "What has been happening?"
* Megumi kneels and grabs ahold of Xanatos' shoulders, trying to keep him flat on his back, half-terrified by the expression she's seeing, half morbidly curious.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *heads over to check on Xan*
<Ariel> "Difficult negotiations." *sighs* "Come, your room will be this way."
* Vyssa nods. "Again, thankyou."
* Xanatos just seems to be screaming in pain, yet no sound escapes, his eyes would show just how much pain.
<Myria> I know...
<Xanatos> <Theron> They will call us weak for our nuetrality.
* Megumi checks to see how abnormal his pulse would be, heartbeat... hand over mouth, breathing still?
<DeathStar> 6* Is heartbeat is racing at unsafe speeds, and his breathing shallow.
* Myria sits down heavily...
<Megumi> "C-crap! I don't kn-know aid st-stuff!"
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *arrives on the scene* "What happened?" *goes to check on Xan's condition as she says that*
* Vyssa follows Ariel
* Xanatos tries to use sigh language to spell the word poison, but he's not making much sesne.
* Megumi changes expressions, her wide yellow-eyed hawk look similar to when she was fighting Ariel and clutching uncomfortably to his shoulder. She focuses this time on slowing Xanatos' heart... circulation speeding up that much would just carry whatever trauma through his system faster... she could at least delay the process.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "He's delirious. We need to get him to sickbay. Could you give me a hand carrying him?"
* Megumi freaks out when 'Peacemaker's hows up. "A-AH!"
* Ariel leads Vyssa to the diplomat's sector, and keys an empty room to her.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands in an empty training room.
<Vyssa> "It's a nice room, but I'd like to spend some time getting to know the station."
* Shiva` moves into her room, the door shutting behind her
<DeathStar> 6* XAnatos suddenly begins to seize
<Megumi> "U-um! Y-yes! ...I th-think... I'm kind of..."
* Megumi is scrawny and tiny.
* Vyssa deposits her things though.
* Ariel hesitates, but nods. "Well... leave your things here. I'm not the best guide, but I'll help you learn the layout."
* Megumi grasps at Xanatos' legs! "I-I'll try!"
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *nods, and hurries Xan to sickbay with Megumi*
* Ariel .oO( ...have I been designated ship babysitter? ;.; )
* Xanatos seizes, all the while his mouth screams silent screams of pain, his veins are liquid fire.
<Vyssa> "If it's a problem, I can wait."
* Ariel shakes her head, "No, it is alright."
* Megumi , as soon as Xanatos is on a table/bed/gurny... THWACKS his chest. "His beating stopped! I can't hear it!" ;_;
<Megumi> "I-is he going to be o-okay!? I didn't d-do it!"
<Vyssa> "You are very kind."
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "We'll see." *goes to work finding the poison, and getting an antidote*
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos suddenly stops moving altogether. He is...dead.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *works to revive Xanatos hurriedly. It's not too late... yet*

<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos starts breathing again
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *takes a deep breath herself. That was close*
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *makes sure to get Xan stable*
* Megumi has her arms in the air. "D-Doctor!"
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos is stable. However, to solve which poison it is, Peace must solve another mini puzzle
<Megumi> "Wh-what's happening!"
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "I managed to bring him back to life... but curing him will be more difficult."
* Vyssa sticks with Ariel, looking around the station

<Vyssa> LDRLDU
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos is revived again
<DeathStar> 6* Peacemaker solves the poison origin, as well.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "Close, but I have it."
* Shiva` steps out of her room finally, her hair held back in a pony tail. She moves down the hallways, eyeing the time
<DeathStar> 6* Peacemaker will need Antidote B.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *gets antidote B, and applies it*
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos' body quits seizing.
* Megumi leaps up and down. "Y-yay!"
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *looks VERY relieved*
* Ariel leaves Vyssa around the commercial area first, trying to avoid any irrate diplomats.
<DeathStar> 6* Ariel comes across the Xanatos incident.
* Xanatos slowly opens his eyes. "...dear god..."
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "You were poisoned."
<Xanatos> ...yeah...Maria Burton, get security to find her now...and Peace...Megumi...Thank you. *he says through slow breaths*
<DeathStar> 6* The side effect of Antidote B is a massive erection, which Xan has.
<Ariel> "...and... um... this is our security chief, layign on the floor and recieving medical attention..." *continues on*
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *comm* "Security? Please keep a look out for a Maria Burton. She attempted to kill Xanatos Durran with poison."
<Vyssa> "... things have been difficult lately, I see."
<Xanatos> ...my crotch feels...oh...*he frowns*
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "... yes."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sits in her counselor room, without customers.
<Megumi> "It's no big d-dea..."
* Megumi stares at Xanatos' general direction.
<Megumi> "It's really not.."
* Xanatos attempts to sit up but frowns and leans back. "I feel like I was just dumped in a vat of lava.
* Megumi siezes, turns and leaves.
* Shiva` steps into her office. 1"I think I need counseling.
<Xanatos> ...you got a cup or something that I can put over it?
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *looking away* "You would."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I don't do your kind of counseling during office hours.
* Shiva` pouts
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *hands a plastic cup to Xan, still not looking* "You'll look VERY strange, mind."
* Megumi 's ears twitch, registering something. She stares both ways down the hallway. "Knight Lady?"
<Xanatos> ....bah. I'm not moving...could you let Erevis know for me?
<Elayne> * Darce leans into Katrina's still open door. "I need counciling too."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I don't think I do your kind of counseling, either, during office hours.
* Ariel glances back, "Here, Megumi."
<DeathStar> 6* Security mvoes up with Maria Burton in custody. "Sir! We caught her trying to escape."
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *sends a comm to Erevis also, stating what happened*
<Elayne> Darce> "Dangit, Iand ahi was hopin for some Scotch Therapy."
* Xanatos looks at Maria Burton. "...when did I kill your family?"
<DeathStar> 6* Maria Burton spits in Xan's face.
* Shiva` leans back in the chair. She eyes Darce passively
* Megumi exits the room and chases after Ariel, silently.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "..."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> 'fraid I can't help you.
<Xanatos> ...put her in the brig.
* Vyssa looks to Megumi as she approaches. "Hello."
<DeathStar> <Maria Burton> YOU should be in the brig, you sick bastard.
<DeathStar> 6* She is dragged away.
<Elayne> Darce> "A pity, do you do sit downs?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Darce, something tells me you don't need counseling.
<Xanatos> ...well...*he sits up now with great effort* Sorry to trouble you Peace.
* Megumi pauses before Ariel and especially Vyssa. "W-Woah..!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis arrives, looking extremely worried. She wraps an arm around him. "Are you okay?"
<Ariel> "This is Megumi. One of the aides. Megumi, this is ambassador Vyssa of the Syin."
* Shiva` looks at Kat. 1"You see the news?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> How could I avoid it?
* Vyssa nods in greeting
<Elayne> Darce> "...The news?"
<Shiva`> What a mess, no?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yes. I hate to see where it'll esculate toward.
* Megumi stops and bows at the waist. "H-hello!" When she rears up she's still wide-eyed and salutes.
<Xanatos> ...my past actions are catching up to me. *he tells her, smiling lightly to her*
<Elayne> * Darce listens quietly.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... ?
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "The past never goes away, does it?"
<Shiva`> It almost escalated to a full scale war since Elayne decided to insult Shretrav.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'm just glad Elayne didn't poke Shretrav.
<Xanatos> The hospital...when I brought you back. I believe her family was there. *he closes his eyes* ...I deserved this.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ......
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances down as she listens.
<Elayne> Darce> "That woman... sometimes I don't know how she made the Council of Elders..."
<Shiva`> I'm still amused by how Shretrav only called for sanctions.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> That's it?
<Shiva`> So far, aye.
* Xanatos slowly opens his eyes again. "I'm sorry I made you worry."
<Elayne> Darce> "...Full trade sanctions?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am only glad you are okay.
* Vyssa smiles a little. "It's nice to meet you."
* Xanatos smiles weakly towards her.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Wow. I expected her to want more.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You should go with Doctor Peace to have a full check up.
<Shiva`> I wonder what she has planned. This doesn't sound like the honorable thing to do.
<Xanatos> Yeah. I think you're right. *he glances at the erection* I'm sure that'll get some stares. *he moves to pull himself up to his feet, wincing all the while, his body still aches from the extreme amount of pain.
<Elayne> Darce> "If she wants a war, it is."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> PLease give him pain medicine, Doctor Peace.
<DeathStar> *Erevis
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *gives some to Xan* "Don't get addicted like Warren did."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ...
<Elayne> Darce> "Starve Earth, make the hunger for things they desire, encourage the conquerers to move outward... makes Earth teh agressor."
* Xanatos smiles and weakly slides his hand across Erevis' cheek. He moves after Peace toward the medbay. "Oh but I want to be like my hero."
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "..."
<Elayne> Darce> "She's just made it possible to allow the Tsiv to fight all they want and they're the honorable defenders."
<Shiva`> I heard that one of Xanatos' security guards had a sex change.
<Elayne> * Darce runs a hand through his hair and sighs.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Really?
<Shiva`> Yeah.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You like to change the subject, dontcha?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis watches Xanatos go, then turns and moves off toward the brig area.
<Shiva`> If I wanted to keep talking politics I'd go back into the meeting room.
* Megumi nods rigidly. "P-Pleasure t-to meet you, m-ma'am."
* Xanatos pulls up his comm as he goes, paging Darien.
<Elayne> * Darce laughs.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien works out in the training room, using his sword to slash targets. He ignores the comm, which he has on a bench.
* Ariel looks surprised to see Megumi so shy.
* Shiva` eyes Darce. 1"That wasn't a joke..."
<Elayne> Darce> "It's still humorous."
<Shiva`> How?
* Xanatos frowns and then comm Ariel.
<Vyssa> "You're nervous too."
<Xanatos> NRP: comms*
<Elayne> Darce> "I've met most of the ambassadors, I wouldn't want to be stuck in a room with them either."
<Vyssa> "I'm not sure if that should make me more, or less, nervous."
* Megumi shakes, but smiles. "A-Ah! I-I'm not, hee hee!"
* Ariel hods up one hand, then answers the comm, "Yes?"
<DeathStar> 6* Some Tsivrixsh enter Terra's bar, eyeing some EarthGov soldiers. They sit down enar them.
<Elayne> * Darce looks over Shiva, 'Cept maybe you, I can stand being stuck in a room with you."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina raises a brow at Darce.
<Shiva`> I doubt it. 6She eyes her nails.
<Xanatos> <Comm> I believe Erevis just went to the brig. The lady that attacked me is there, please go and make sure Erevis doesn't do anything rash. She will listen to you.
<Vyssa> <Terra> *watches, hoping no-one causes trouble*
* Xanatos moves into the medbay and sits down on a bed. "Help me out, Doc."
<Elayne> * Darce looks over Katrina, "You'd just add further charm to the room darlin."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh, don't let me get between you and Shiva.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh order some drinks.
<Shiva`> You gotta love these self-proclaimed ladies men. 6She motions to Darce as she smiles at Kat.
<Vyssa> <Terra> *hands out the drinks, hoping they don't get TOO drunk*
<DeathStar> 6* They down them almost immediately, getting more rounds.
* Ariel looks to Megumi, "Can you take care of showing the new ambassador around? I have an urgent matter to look into."
* Ariel hurries off towards the brig
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh> I hear hu-mans are cowards that attack you in the back while proclaiming peace. 6One says loudly.
<Elayne> Darce> "Same level of confidence it takes to delve into the minds of madmen." *he looks down the hall, eye widening* "...Ummm... I'll leave you two ladies to whatever you were doing."
<DeathStar> 6* The humans stare over now.
<Vyssa> <Terra> .oO(Oh no, don't start that...)
<Elayne> * Darce waves and slips away, a Red Vapaad floating after him.
<Megumi> "A-ah!? M-Miss Knight! I... I ..."
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh 2> What can you say for such a primitive, weak race.
* Megumi stares after, sobbing silently.
<Megumi> "I.. h-have to get to my... j-job..."
* Megumi punces the side of her head twice. "Oh man, I didn't get to mention that..."
<DeathStar> 6* The humans stand up as well, moving to the Tsivrixsh table. A .... barfight ensures!'
* Shiva` crosses his arms. 1"I hate pyschics..." 6She looks over at him.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> We're both psychics.
<Shiva`> Oh throw that in my face.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Just sayin'.
* Megumi turns and grabs Vyssa's hand. "Heheh! W-well, that's a good place to start, right? Thirsty? L-Let's head there!" ...starts running for the bar. >_>;
* Shiva` sighs, a tired look on her face. 1"I know."
* Vyssa follows. "I guess."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You look tired, Shiva.
<Vyssa> "I don't seem to have much choice if I want a tour."
<DeathStar> 6* The two groups begin to wreck Terra's bar as they beat each other up.
<Elayne> * Darce runs down a hallway, "For the last time I'm not a friggin experiment!"
<Shiva`> It takes so much energy to not want to punch people like him.
<Elayne> * The Red Vapaad persues!
<Vyssa> <Terra> "Hey! Not in my bar!"
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh throw humans around, especially into Terra's bottles.
* Megumi uses the computer system to find the bar. Her direction sense is hopeless without more experience.
<DeathStar> 6* Ariel arrives outside the brig.
* Xanatos sits there patiently while Peace gives him the work-up. "So am I alright, blinding pain aside?"
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "Pretty much."
* Ariel enters the brig, looking for Erevis
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands there; the cell she's looking into is just out of Ariel's sight.
<Vyssa> <Terra> *gathers bottles to keep them from being smashed, not quite ready to try to break it up yet*
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh begin to beat the humans around, until only the Tsivrixsh are standing. The laugh at the humans.
<Xanatos> Good. *he stands up, hiding the pain now* Thank you peace. It seems like you've saved my life again.
<Xanatos> <Theron> Are you alright?
<Vyssa> <Terra> "..."
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh turn as Megumi and Vyssa arrive.
* Megumi arrives at the bar, attesting the sight, letting go of Vyssa. "H-hey!"
* Ariel approaches Erevis
<Vyssa> "..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't seem to notice. As Ariel approaches, she can see the twisted, curled body of a dead Maria Burton.
* Xanatos waves and steps out, moving towards the Brig.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh sit back down, ordering more drinks. The humans groan in their own blood.
* Megumi puts a hand to her mouth, calling to Terra.
<Megumi> "Madame, this place's neutral, right?"
<Ariel> "...Erevis."
<Vyssa> <Terra> "... yeah... just uncertain about kicking everyone out around now..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis blinks, turning to face Ariel. "Ariel."
<Ariel> "...did you do that?"
* Megumi stares blankly. "Uncertain?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Do what?
<Megumi> "Why? The ones who cause trouble need to leave, not everyone, right?"
* Ariel gestures to the corpse.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances back at Burton.
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos arrives in the brig
<Vyssa> <Terra> "... well, yeah, I guess. That means everyone who's been fighting, Human or Tsiv."
<Megumi> "Right!"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I thought you liked slightly dumb guys who hit on you?
* Xanatos steps up and slides up behind Ariel and Erevis, his eyes fall on the woman and his mouth drops open. "Wh...what happened?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> She is dead.
<Xanatos> How?
* Megumi takes a step, stomping the ground and pointing to the Tsivrixsh. "Hey! Get lost!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances at them both, then shrugs, and turns to walk past them.
<Vyssa> <Terra> "Yeah. Fighting's not allowed in here."
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh sneer at them. "Make us."
* Shiva` looks at her. 1"I do, I just don't like the irritatting ones that are just trying to drive a wedge between us."
* Megumi brings her other hand up in a fist near her face. "What'd you say!?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh, those kind.
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh> You heard me, runt
<Megumi> "Runt!?
<Ariel> "Erevis. You did not answer the question."
<Megumi> "Why you..!"
<Vyssa> <Terra> "... no-one can say we didn't try peaceful measures first."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I did not see the need to answer your question.
* Xanatos goes to say something but stops, letting Ariel speak.
* Vyssa just watches, wondering if the station's gone to hell, or always been like this
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> ... You will leave this bar and go to your quarters. 6She barks out, walking up. The Tsivrixsh cower in fear.
<Vyssa> <Terra> "... thankyou."
* Megumi takes another step, stomping, both hands clenched before her. "Look here you--..."
<Vyssa> <Terra> *pretty much bows to Shretrav*
<Ariel> "We have a woman, in a cell, dead. With you being the only one present."
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh eye Megumi, as if memorizing her face, then walk out.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You have your video cameras. 6She turns and goes to walk out.
<Vyssa> <Terra> "Lets get the humans out of here too. Fair's fair."
* Megumi pauses, relaxing. She gives them all a mean glare, one as fierce as the diminuitive elf can manage, then smiles at Shretrav. "Hmm.. You're not so bad."
* Xanatos rubs his face and then pulls up his datapad, bring up the video of the brig.
* Megumi nods to Terra and goes to tend/evict the humans as well.
<Vyssa> <Terra> *helps out there*
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> I .. .thank you.
<Ariel> "Erevis... please. You know that I trust you."
<DeathStar> 6* The video shows that Erevis and the woman were talking; the woman quite heatedly. The woman crosses her arms, then suddenly falls over, convulsing in pain.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then you would not have asked if I did it. 6She walks out completely.
<Vyssa> <Terra> "Really? What for? We were just trying to keep order."
* Megumi returns after seeing the last out. "Yeah...
* Xanatos pulls up his comm and pages Peace.
<Vyssa> <Terra> "I should be thanking you."
* Ariel sighs...
<Megumi> "I might have had trouble with that many."
<Xanatos> I don't believe she did it. *he says to Ariel* But I need to know who did.
<Megumi> "You hurt my ears at the assembly, but you're a big help this time. Thanks!"
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *looks over the paging*
<Xanatos> <Comm> Peace I need you to get to the brig right now. And be ready to do an autopsy.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "On my way." *grabs her autopsy equipment and heads over*
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav turns and walks away.
<Shiva`> Coming over tonight to watch a movie? 6She looks at her.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'll be there.
<Shiva`> Wear something comfortable.
<Megumi> "H-hey!"
* Xanatos crosses his arms and glances to Ariel. "You insulted her by accusing. Though you didn't mean it, that's how she took it. I suggest you go talk to her."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'll do that.
* Megumi calls after Shretrav. "Wh-where are you going...? At least stay for a d-drink!"
* Megumi points at Vyssa. "She's new and p-probably needs friends!"
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav glances back. "I fear I am not in a sociable mood."
<Vyssa> <Terra> "That's okay. Your next one's free, though, remember that."
* Shiva` stands up and leans over Kat's desk, kissing her on the forehead. She winks at her and walks off, putting a little hip in her step
<Elayne> * Kaltar floats near Megumi, eyeing her. A blue colored Vapaad, smaller then the others.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *heads over, bringing the basic stuff.. though she will need to head back for a full diagnosis*
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina makes a whistle sound.
* Vyssa looks over to Kaltar
<DeathStar> 6* Tom Pilot screams upon seeing Kaltar, and runs off.
* Shiva` pauses, shaking it briefly for her then steps out of her office, movign down the hallway
* Megumi sulks wholeheartedly. "D-darn..."
<Vyssa> "... has the station always been like this?"
* Xanatos glances at Peace and her stuff. "We need to get her out of the cell first." About the time he says that, a security team steps in with a gurny. Xan steps in the cell and knees over, eyeing the body. The two guards lift her up onto the table and begin to roll her back for peace. "Please let me know how she died. The full report as soon as possible." He nods to Peace to do her thing and steps past Ariel who is still standing there.
* Megumi 's ears twitch, and she stares at the escaping Tom. She dismisses it and faces Terra. "So u-um... Do I have to ch-change or anything? I was trying to get h-here on time but I found Xanatos dying in one of the halls. I sw-swear!"
* Ariel heads out to find Erevis... this day just gets worse
<Vyssa> <Terra> "Dying dying, or had a fight with Erevis dying?"
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *takes the body back to the medbay first then*
<Megumi> "Dying-dying! I w-wouldn't skip w-work for an argument!"
<Elayne> * Kaltar gently pokes Megumi with a tendril.
<Elayne> Kaltar> "...What kind of creature are you?..."
<Vyssa> "He had been poisoned."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits in the garden, meditating again; giving off a vibe of leaving her alone.
<Vyssa> <Terra> "... sheesh. I knew he wasn't popular, but.."
<Vyssa> "I am Vyssa of the Syin."
* Xanatos glances at Ariel as she steps past him, he is after all walking slower. "I'll be around if you need my help. Though i'm sure you wont admit it if you do." He nods once and rounds a corner, leaving Ariel alone.
* Megumi leaps back slightly, glancing now at Kaltar. "H-huh?!"
<Elayne> Kaltar> "...Hello! I am Kaltar! Who are you?..."
* Vyssa seems glad for the clear introduction
<Elayne> * Kaltar has a lense focused on Vyssa and Megumi, studying them.
* Ariel sits down near Erevis, not saying anything right away.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis does her meditations, doing deeper and longer breathing techniques, relaxing bit by bit
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *comm to Xan* "She was poisoned too. Something tells me Erevis had no part in any of this."
* Ariel is going to wait then... she wants to allow Erevis some time to calm down, if she needs to.
* Megumi blinks... blinks some more! Then bows at the waist. "M-Megumi! I-I'll be working here for a while..!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis continues to meditate. Like Ariel, she can go long periods.
* Xanatos pulls up his comm. "Thank you Peace. I'll get security to review the tapes on Maria and find out if it was self inflicted." He closes connection with her, then opens up to had security do so.
<Elayne> Kaltar> "...Nice to meet you! I have indexed your mental patterns... they are quite interesting!..."
<Vyssa> "Thankyou?"
* Megumi blushes suddenly, standing upright. "H-hey!"
* Xanatos then sends Ariel a message on his datapad, letting her know the verdict. Not wanting to interrupt her with a comm.
<Megumi> "That's kind of rude! My mental anything is private!"
<Elayne> Kaltar> "...Nonsense, you're projecting it all over."
<Ariel> "...I'm sorry for offending you, Erevis. I was sent there to make sure that you didn't kill her. I didn't believe that you would do it... but I didn't have proof."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You did what you had to do.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis opens her eyes.
* Xanatos steps into the training room, where Darien is. He stops and leans against the wall. "Nice form. For a wimp."
* Megumi turns away and crosses her arms. "H-hrmph..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands in a mostly destroyed training room, turning slowly to face Xanatos. He doesn't seem like the same joking man.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien powers down the sword, then rubs the back of his head. "I'll be sure to note that in my folder of recommendations."
* Xanatos tilts his head, a frown sliding on his face. "Ah, caught you at a bad time, didn't I?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Letting off some steam. 6He shrugs, smiling. "I hate politics."
<Ariel> "...I had hoped you'd take the question objectively. I'm sorry. Even with my intentions, it was insenstive."
<Elayne> Kaltar> "...Oh I'm sorry, perhaps you don't understand, what I record is a mental image of your living state, it is the only way I can recognise you..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I overreacted.
<Xanatos> That makes two of us. We've had a few incidents today, wanted to inform you personally. There was a bar fight between the Tsiv and some Earthgov soldiers. It has sense been resolved. I was injected by a poison that almost killed me, and then imprisoned the lady for doing so. Then she died due to the same poison in the cell.
<Vyssa> "Ah, I understand now."
<DeathStar> <Darien> .... Aww, you didn't die?
* Shiva` walks by the training room, she leans in. 1"PUSSY" She keeps walking again
<DeathStar> <Darien> She meant you.
<Xanatos> Yeah. Like I care. I went through more pain than anyone should ever have too.
<DeathStar> <Darien> OF course, of course.
* Ariel leans back, "No... I don't think so. More than I'm used to you doing... but not overreacted."
<Xanatos> Erevis was in the brig at the time of death, but i'm having my team review the tape to make sure she didn't have a part in this. I personally don't believe she did, but i'm double checking because I don't want to be too objective.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses upon hearing that, glancing to the side.
* Megumi turns abrubtly, smiling forcefully. "W-Well, do you require anything, ...Mis...miste... ..?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Your words are kind, but I simply should have answered your question.
<Xanatos> Yeah. You believe she did it already, I figured you would.
<Elayne> Kaltar> "...What are you...?" *the Vapaad prods and pokes Megumi experimentally.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, it's something Wind would do if someone, you know, accused Ariel of going into a murderous ramapag---oh, wait, no he wouldn't.
* Megumi squeak slightly and squirms. "A-ah! Q-quit it!"
<Vyssa> "Is there some special reason for your interest in her?"
* Xanatos pauses and eyes Darien. "Right well, I believe she may have accidentally poked herself with whatever she poked me. Either that or she killed herself on purpose because she had nothing left to live for. She failed, and then imprisoned. Her family was killed due to my own mistakes.
* Ariel smiles, "Well... it would have been... simpler."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Or Erevis moved her body to poke herself.
<Elayne> Kaltar> "...I do not have her species on record...."
* Xanatos pauses and glances at Darien. "Erevis is not a killer."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis mimics the smile, though not convincingly as she doesn't smile often. "I will try not to get so emotional next time."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Mmmhm
<DeathStar> <Darien> Deep down, there's not a smidge of you that thinks she wouldn't twist a person to death for trying to harm you?
<Vyssa> "Neither do I. I don't think I've encountered any of the species here before, though."
<Xanatos> I'm going to explore all options. But i'm not going to cast blame on her. Because I don't think she would do it, regardless of what happened to me.
<DeathStar> <Darien> She's killed before, Xanatos. Never forget that.
<Xanatos> Intentionally?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Of course. Maybe she didn't pick Katrina specifically, but she intentionally planned to get a human's body
<Elayne> Kaltar> "...I am of the Sages, a Vapaad..."
* Myria has left #taw
<Xanatos> ...she's not a murderer. She's better than that. And i'm going to prove it. *he turns and steps out of the training room*
* Ariel shakes her head, "Don't appologise. You don't need to."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh dear.
<DeathStar> <Darien> If this were a TV show, the audience would be groaning.
* Megumi continues blushing, stomping lightly and shaking her balled hands. "..I d-don't know why, b-but this is embarrassing.."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods once. "Very well."
* Xanatos moves through the hallways, he pulls his comm to find out what his team has determined from the feed.
<Megumi> "I'm from Famfrit, alright? ..I-I'm just a person..."
* Megumi edges away toward the counter.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances at the training room, then discreetly calls the repair crew and claims Xanatos did it.

* Dias stares across their table at Erevis, he slowly reaches his hand out and grabs a pawn sliding it one step forward.
* Marcus` sits beside Dias. "Ouch. That was dumb."
<Dias> Shhh, I've lulled her into a false sense of security.
<Marcus`> ....dude, all she has to do is take your pawn with her queen and it is checkmate.
* Dias turns to eye Marcus. 1"Would you shut up?"
<Marcus`> Not my fault you suck ass at chess.
<Dias> Chess? 6He eyes the pieces.
<Marcus`> Whatever game this is. *he waves his hand*

* Xanatos is now known as Marcus`
* Kit is now known as Megumi
* Dias hands Marcus a brown paper bag.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis randomly moves a piece, clearly not knowing the game.
* Marcus` eyes the brown paper bag and peeks inside.
* Dias grabs another piece and slides it across the table.
<Dias> 6Cream filling explodes out of it and into Marcus face
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves another piece.
* Ariel sits quietly, idly eating an okonomiyaki
* Dias randomaly grabs a piece and slides it across, taking one of her black pieces.
* Marcus` slowly looks up to Dias.
* Dias looks over at Marcus. 1"Huh...so that's where that explosive got placed.
* Marcus` takes some with his finger and eats it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pauses, then makes a legit move.
* Dias turns back and slides another piece around.
* Megumi holds her tray or whatever, staring at Ariel and her food.
<Megumi> "We make that? What is it?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis makes another legit move. "Check."
<Marcus`> Ooooh good one. *he continues eating the cream off of his face*
<Ariel> "It's... like pizza."
<Dias> Check what?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<Megumi> "...Pizza?"
<Marcus`> ....You have to move a piece to keep her from taking your king or it'll be checkmate and you'll lose.
<Dias> ...Which one's my king? 6He looks at Marcus
* Marcus` points it out.
<Dias> Oh. 6He moves it to the side.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves another piece. "Check."
<Ariel> "You've never had pizza?"
* Dias moves his king back.
* Megumi shakes her head and shrugs.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You cannot move there. That is check.
<Dias> Oh...6He scratches his head as he stares at the board. 6He reaches out to grab one of her pieces.
<Megumi> "Is it anything like beijya?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... those are my pieces.
<Ariel> "I... won't know."
<Dias> Oh...6He slowly moves his hand around, trying to remember which ones are his now.
<Marcus`> Dias. Move your knight.
<Megumi> "It's a grilled animal diced up in breading with roots."
<Megumi> "Um..."
<Dias> I don't need your help. 6He hmpfs then slowly moves his knight.
* Megumi taps her lip and sighs. "Long, narrow, skinny... no legs?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves again. "Check ... ... mated."
<Marcus`> Of course you do. That's now how it moves, it makes an L shape.
<Ariel> "Probally not then."
<Dias> Mate? 6He perks up, looking at Erevis
<Megumi> "Oh, right. You call them a snake."
<Marcus`> You lose.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. Our pieces have mated. I win.
<Marcus`> And they aren't mating...
<Dias> Did you hear that Marcus. Our pieces have mated. Looks like I won, baby.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I won. 6She corrects annoyedly.
<Marcus`> I think you both lose just for thinking that your pieces are doing it.
<Dias> Of course you won Erevis, everyone wins when you mate with my pieces.
<Marcus`> ...if you kill him. I wont tell.
* Ariel idly cuts a piece off and offers it to Megumi
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... .
<Dias> You know this game only get's hard when your pieces move next to mine.
* Megumi hides behind her tray. "...Mmh...!"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands behind Megumi.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Well, now that I am victorious and our pieces have copulated, I shall go.
<Megumi> "I shouldn't be eating what I'm servin--..."
* Megumi 's ears twitch and she peers over her shoulder. "...E-EYAH!?"
<Dias> So I suppose this means I have to pay up than...6He sighs and stands up, fishing through his pockets again.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien smiles.

<DeathStar> 6* Erevis waits.
<Dias> You're good Erevis, I'll give you that. 6He pulls out two bouncy balls and hands them to her.
<Dias> That's Randy and Tandy. Take good care of them.
<Marcus`> ...
<Marcus`> ...I could probably win your stuff back, Dias.
<Ariel> "You like to freak her out, don't you, Darien?"
* Dias looks at Marcus. 1"She won it fair and square. It's cool."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes the balls.
* Megumi slips to the other side of Ariel. "..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's...amusing.
<Marcus`> Alright.
<Ariel> "You seem to enjoy it."
<DeathStar> <Darien> What can I say, I'm a sucker for sneaking up on people.
<Megumi> "Isn't it usually illegal?"
<Dias> Plus you can't even beat Aya in checkers. There's no way you can beat Erevis in chess. She's like...a master or something.
<Marcus`> I let Aya beat me so Chad would agree to train me.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits down, then takes some of Ariel's food, eating it.
<Dias> You lost because you suck at it.
<Megumi> "H-hey!"
* Megumi pouts. "That's Miss Knight's!"
<Marcus`> Whatever, Checkers is one of the easiest games ever.
<Dias> But whatever you have to say to save face princess.
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's really good, Miss Knight.
<Marcus`> Your shitty insults have become worse than lame. They've become pathetic.
* Dias looks at Marcus. 1"I'm sorry, are you still talking? Cream face?"
* Megumi sulks a bit, holding her tray over her head so she can hit herself with it. "Man..."
<Dias> ...Wanna go set Xanatos' pants on fire?
* Marcus` has eaten most of the cream from his face. "Absolutely pathetic." he notes, then takes Dias' shirt and wipes his face off. "Sure."
* Dias eyes his shirt. 1"Disgusting...Adam made that thing..."
<Marcus`> What happened to Adam anyway? He kinda just vanished.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches to see if she hits herself.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis has snuck off while the two rattle on.
<Dias> Probably raping something. 6He shrugs and turns. 1"So where do you think retard is?"
* Megumi clocks herself in culinary depression.
<Marcus`> I dunno. I don't know him as well as you do.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You should do it a little harder if you want to seem realistic.
<Marcus`> *An arm drapes itself over Erevis' shoulder as she walks along the halls.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis grabs the arm and ninja flips the poor soul.
<Marcus`> *She flips a poor security ensign. Xan claps. "I'm damn glad I made him do that."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes the poor man, having nearly taken his arm off.
<Marcus`> <Xan> I...should probably send for a medical team now.
<Marcus`> * Xan does so and smiles at Erevis. "So did you win again?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... you are hiring people to touch me? 6She says darkly.
<Marcus`> <Xan> I didn't hire him.
<Dias> ...I wonder if Peacemaker's getting pissed at all the people I've been sending to MedBay...6He taps his chin.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis jsut storms off.
<Marcus`> I'd say so...or maybe she's been so bored that she thinks you're a godsend?
<Marcus`> <Xan> I DIDN'T! *he walks after her, sighing to himself*
* Ariel shakes her head...
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis keeps walking as if she's mad.
<Dias> Oh well. Gotta get my training in somehow...Speaking of which. 6He throws a punch for Marcus' face.
* Megumi twists her expression to the side, frowning.
<Megumi> "That's so rude, Mister Darien."
<Marcus`> <Xan> He said you were hot and said he was going to show me how to get a real lady and I just didn't stop him...
<DeathStar> <Darien> I know. 6He watches Dias punch MArcus. "But not as rude as that."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ........
<Marcus`> *Marcus holds his face then throws his knee forward for Dias' groin.
* Marcus` is now known as Xanatos
<Ariel> "It's alright Megumi. I don't mind."
* Dias moves his opposite knee up to intercept, letting it lock into place. He opens his hand and grabs the top of Marcus' head and pulls it on it, pulling himself up, aiming to drive his knee into Marcus' protected face.
* Megumi gapes. "B-b-but I do!"
<Xanatos> I knew you'd handle yourself well. That's why I didn't knock him out myself.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do like people 'touching' me.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien takes another bite, smiling.
<Xanatos> Next time i'll knock him out myself. *he places his arm on her shoulder*
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos is karate thrown.
* Megumi smacks Darien's hand with her tray. "...S-stop!"
<Xanatos> *Marcus suddenly shoves forward attempting to tackle Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grabs his hand in pain and falls over, looking dead.
* Xanatos sits up. "Well you're not supposed to throw me!"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You touched me.
<Ariel> "...I think you killed him."
<Xanatos> I'm your boyfriend.
* Megumi doesn't even bother looking at Darien. She wasn't trying after all.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not see why that matters.
<Xanatos> I'm allowed. Duh.
<Megumi> "Tch, don't give him any attention. He thrives on it. You need your food, so stop letting him mooch!"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You are not allowed to touch me if I do not permit it.
* Ariel looks at the dead Darien. "Did you hear her? You're not allowed to mooch. It seems you're paying on the next date."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien shrugs. "I got a nice view down here."
<Xanatos> Well that's not exactly right. *he stands up* I wouldn't ever hurt you on purpose, so why can't I place my arm around you or something like that?
* Megumi THWACKS Darien with a thrown tray.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien acks.
* Megumi fumes!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Because I do not permit it right now.
<Xanatos> Well that's lame.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You are lame.
* Ariel shakes her head, "You'll need to appologise to her."
* Dias stops, his knee being held from moving any further, he hangs there in mid-air, his hand still holding onto Marcus' head.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits up again. "No."
<Xanatos> *Marcus wobbles slightly, taking a step forward and then a step backward. "God...you're...so...fat." he falls back, Dias would land roughly on his chest.
* Megumi catches her tray, it having finally arced back to her like a frisbee.
<Xanatos> I am not!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
* Dias rolss of Marcus. 1"I AM NOT!" He grabs him off the floor and tosses him at Darien
* Xanatos crosses his arms and huffs. "I'm the coolest person in this relationship, thank you very much."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> ACK! *he flies toward Darien*
* Dias blinks. 1"Ahh....shit."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis comes to a complete stop.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans into ARiel so Marcus goes right by.
* Xanatos pauses. "I...oh shit..." he starts to slide back.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns slowly to face him.
* Megumi takes a step forward and plants her foot, driving her free hand into the projectile Darien has dodged.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> AHHHHHH! *he slams into a wall, then slides down it slowly, very dramatic.*
<Megumi> "Quit pestering the other customers!"
* Xanatos suddenly points at her. "Stop!"
* Dias looks at Megumi. 1"HYPERACTIVE CUTE GIRL!"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans back, then gives Megumi her a tip.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis throws XAnatos down the hallway. He goes flying past Terra's bar.
* Megumi ignores Dias, still pretty damn unhappy with him.
<Xanatos> AHHHH! *he flies past the bar entrance*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches Xanatos fly past now. "What is going on today?"
* Dias darts over to her, sliding next to her, he puts his arm around her shoulder. 1"Hey cute girl...You know I never got to catch your name.
* Xanatos pulls himself up and can be seen running by the entrance shortly after.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> It's Megumi. *he says, pulling himself up*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Dias suddenly with a look of pure evil.
* Megumi enragedly drives her foot back into a mule kick toward the only part of Dias' body he would likely care for! "Remember it."
<Dias> Megumi...Such a beautiful name...6He looks her in the eyes. 1"You have quite the lovely name Megumi.
* Dias blinks, suddenly keeling over and falling onto the floor.
* Xanatos slides up by Erevis. "That wasn't very nice."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not care.
* Megumi glares down at Dias.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Holy shit that was the coolest thing ever.
<Xanatos> Well you should! I could've died!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Only if you were weak.
<Xanatos> I could've landed onto a stray piece of metal or something.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then you would still be weak.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Hurry, kick him before he gets up!
<Ariel> "...shouldn't someone be keeping order here?"
* Dias slowly rises, his race contorting in pain
<Xanatos> ...i'd like to see you fall on a piece of metal and survive...*he grumbles*
<DeathStar> 6* DArien eats on Ariel's food. "That's your job, Ariel. You run the station affairs."
* Megumi looks distressedly at Ariel. "Am I not...?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I have been impaled by metal and survived.
<Xanatos> *Marcus sighs and throws a kick for Dias' side.
<Megumi> "...I-I'm trying! B-but the place is such ch-chaos!"
* Dias hops up, his hand grabbing Marcus' leg and twisting him.
* Megumi sniffles, rubbing the corners of her eyes.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> GAH! *he spins mid-air and lands on the ground*
<DeathStar> <Darien> You're doing a fine job, Megumi. Don't cry. Stp that.
* Dias takes a deep breath. 1"Woooow. You can hit like a champion Megumi."
<Xanatos> ...ok ok. You're right there. Hey, I lost my leg once. That's not weak is it>
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
<Xanatos> *Marcus pulls himself up.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Megumi, how old are you?
* Megumi frowns at Marcus. "Th-that's rude, too!"
<Ariel> "I don't run security. You put someone else in charge of that."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, right.
<Dias> Yeah, that's rude. 6He points at Marcus, accusingly
<DeathStar> <Darien> I think he's hitting on Erevis.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I'm making a point.
* Xanatos rubs the back of his neck. "So...I think we should hold hands and skip through the hallway."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... Do not make me injure you.
* Xanatos smiles. "I'm kidding. But you gotta admit, it would be fun."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It would not.
* Megumi holds her tray up to hide part of her face. "I.. I'm s-sixteen... Why?"
<Dias> 18? Alright.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien activates his energy sword, holding it at Dias' groin. "Go find a new table, Dias."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> She's underage Dias. Leave her alone.
<Xanatos> Oh well. So much for that fun idea.
* Dias looks at Marcus. 1"Like that stopped you. You married a 4 year old."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Hello? I was forced too!
* Megumi totally just stares at the conversation/events, edging back behind Ariel slightly.
<Dias> Blah blah blah, excuse excuses. You still married her. AND kissed her.
<Xanatos> Would you mind if I did a portrait of you? *he glances at Erevis*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stabs his ass with a quick move of his hand.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I would not.
<Dias> AIEEE! 6He hops forward.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> OH because Death isn't as bad as marrying a four year old.
<Dias> Well....
<Xanatos> ...umm...I was kinda wanting to do a nude portrait.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at him like he's gone mad.
<Xanatos> ...But you can keep your clothes on. It's no big deal.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
* Dias looks over at Ariel. 1"Would you marry a 4 year old or die?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs.
<Xanatos> *Marcus looks to Ariel now.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm sorry about them, Megumi.
* Megumi plants her foot again and drives her tray like a discus toward Dias and Marcus. "I said stop pestering the others!"
<Xanatos> Would you mind if I added the nude part from memory?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis suddenly jabs his throat so he can't speak.
* Dias tilts his head, letting it slam into his head. He rubs his forehead.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Oh damn, my shoe's untide. *he bends over to tie it back*
<Ariel> "...we need a more competant security staff."
* Xanatos widens his eyes and pulls his hands up to his throat.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis grabs Xanatos by the neck and ninja flips him.
* Dias glances over at Darien to ask him than stops. 1"You, you'd probably just kill the 4 year old."
* Megumi waits for it... and snags her tray. It's now becoming one of her proficient 'weapons.'
* Xanatos is ninja flipped, he just lays there.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Probably.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis walks off.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Oh that's just horrible.
<DeathStar> <Darien> She's a Dark Thing.
<Xanatos> *Marcus straitens up. "So? She's kinda cute when she's doing evil..."
<Dias> Dark PERSON, Darien. They have feeligns too.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam leans over Marcus. "Really? Cute?"
<Dias> Yeah, I'm sure she's real cute for you too.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> AHHH! *he shrieks like a girl and collapses*
* Megumi looks to the ceiling and clutches her hands at the air like 'why god, why?' when Adam appears.
* Dias looks at Adam. 1"What technique was that?
* Xanatos frowns and pulls himself up.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, I just walked up behind him.
<Dias> So Marcus weakness is being approached from the rear...I see.
<Xanatos> *Marcus jumps back up. "...his face just scared the hell out of me."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam smiles at Ariel. "Hey, cutey."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares.
* Xanatos scratches his head and moves off for his office.
<Ariel> "......"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pauses, then sneaks off. Obviously.
<Dias> You know who I haven't seen yet...6He taps his chin.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Who? *he accidently places his foot in Adam's way*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam accidently puts a knife into Marcus' back.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, whoops. How did that get there?
<Dias> John's sis. 6He looks at Darien. 1"Where can I find her? 6His tone rather relaxed.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't think I would torture her by telling you where to find her.
* Xanatos pauses and looks at Dias, then Adam, then Darien, then Ariel. "..."
<Xanatos> NRP: Marcus*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam runs.
* Megumi flings her tray after Adam.
<Megumi> "Just -die-!"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam is hit on his way out.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Is it illegal to shoot people on this station?
<Dias> ...That's just rude.
* Megumi catches, rather pose-like.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Can Adam be an exception?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Awesome. *he runs off, pulling out a pistol*
<Dias> If I destroy these pictures of you holding a teddy bear, will you tell me? 6He holds them up.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Those are doctored.
* Xanatos whistles as he walks out of his office, something wrapped in wrapping paper, after a moment he knocks of Erevis' door.
* Megumi holds a fist up, silently crying behind Ariel.
<Dias> Doctored, real. It doesn't matter. Once the general populace finds them your reputation as a 6He motions with his fingers. "Bad Ass" will be over.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, okay. go ahead.
<Dias> Really?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sips Ariel's drink. "Yeah, I don't care."
<Dias> Shew...Cuz I accidentally already handed some out. I was trying to find you so I used them as a reference.
<DeathStar> 6* The door opens with Siawase on guard.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's fine.
* Dias hands one to Darien. 1"Incase you see this guy."
* Xanatos clears his throat, his speech is harsh and low. "I come baring gifts."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't answer.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien takes it and tosses it aside.
* Dias looks over at Ariel. 1"Ariel, you know where Kat might be?"
<Xanatos> ...they're real good gifts.
<Ariel> Siawase> "......" *anklebites*
<Ariel> "Not a clue."
* Xanatos pauses and glances down at Siawase. "Cute." he pulls out a ball of yarn from his pocket and holds it in front of Siawase.
<Dias> You're not lieing to me are you? 6He tilts his head.
<Megumi> "She's in the training room, Dias."
<Ariel> "Why would I know where she is?"
<Dias> You're Ariel...6He waves his hands as if that should explain it all
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is sitting on her bed, thinking.
<Ariel> Siawase> "..." *electrocutes Xanatos*
* Megumi glances at her wrist, even though she's not wearing a watch.
* Xanatos jolts a little and pauses. "That felt pretty awesome."
<Megumi> "And she's probably finishing up training, so if you're quick, you might catch her washing up."
* Ariel sighs. "...where did I get this sort of reputation?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't forget your virgin reputation.
<Dias> ...Why would I want to do that? She's my dead best friends sister. That would disrespectful to her.
<Dias> NRP: Him
<Megumi> "Because you're Dias."
* Ariel rolls her eyes.
<Megumi> "It's what you do."
* Dias looks at Darien. 1"She's not a virgin.
* Xanatos steps over and Siawase and leans against he frame of the door. "May I come in?
<DeathStar> <Darien> .... Thank you, Dias.
* Dias looks over at Megumi. 1"I see my reputation precedes me.
<Megumi> "Yes, now go before you disappoint it."
<Ariel> "Look, just because the self proclaimed god of this universe, insists I'm his true love, it doesn't make me omniscient, omnipotent, or anything like that."
<Megumi> "Otherwise everyone will shake their heads when they see you and exclaim you're not the Dias you used to be."
* Dias leans in real close to Darien. 1"But I've got the inside word, that her and Erevis. 6Pulls out two puppets and motions
<DeathStar> <Darien> You never know. You might be.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares, then at Ariel.
<Dias> Oh yeah. 6He slides away, putting the puppers away
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes him. "Very well."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, that's absurd.
* Xanatos steps in and closes the door on Siawase, he holds up the gift. "I offended you again, didn't I?"
<Dias> I thought you'd say that. 6He pulls out a picture of them where Erevis fell asleep with her arm around Ariel back on PAX 2 and shows it to him.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares at it.
<Ariel> Siawase> *is still latched onto Xanatos' leg by the teeth*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Where...do you get this?!
<Ariel> "......"
<Dias> I know a guy, who knows a guy.
* Xanatos pauses and glances down at his leg. "...your cat wont stop attacking me..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> He is playing with you.
<Xanatos> He electrocuted me.
<DeathStar> <ERevis> Isn't he cute?
<Ariel> Siawase> *glares at Xanatos, wondering why he's not dying. Grr. Grr.*
<Xanatos> ...I think he may be a tad evil. *he winces* But yeah, it's cute that he can't really hurt me.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You should pet him.
<Dias> You wanna see...6He moves to grab another picture.
<Xanatos> ...but I don't want to get shocked. His teeth are imbedded into my synthetic leg...
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis offers Siawase a treat.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien waits to see.
<Ariel> "That's enough, Dias."
<Ariel> Siawase> *gives Xanatos one last shock, then pads over to Erevis to get the treat. Looking cute now*
<Megumi> "Miss Knight, if you'll carry me back to my room I'll... dispose of him."
* Dias looks at Ariel then at Darien then at Ariel then at Darien. 1"But this one's cute."
* Megumi squints comically, but is sounding rather serious.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien subtlely motions to see it
<Ariel> "Dias or Darien?"
<Xanatos> *Marcus comes back with bruises all over his face. "So...Adam apparently knows how to fight very well...glad no one told me."
* Dias slowly hands it to Darien.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien reaches and takes it.
<Megumi> "... Either."
* Xanatos reaches out and brushes his hand under Siawase's chin. He remembers most normal cats like that.
<Ariel> Siawase> *bites Xanatos' hand*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks at the picture.
* Xanatos lifts Siawase up he eyes it. "I'm used to pain kitty. You can't hurt me."
<Dias> 6It's of them meditating together, a heart's drawn between the two
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... ... wow.
<Dias> I know.
<Ariel> Siawase> *shocks him, trying to stop his heart*
<Xanatos> I've been chocked by worse working on a shuttle too. *he says after the initial jolt*
<Ariel> "...sounds like a deal, Megumi."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien shakes his head.
<Dias> But you...you might like this one. 6He slides him a new one.
* Xanatos extends his hand out to Erevis. "Ok. You can have your evil kitty back now."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis takes the cat and lets him sit in her lap.
<Ariel> Siawase> *purrs*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances at it.
* Megumi cracks her knuckles and sets down her tray, a somewhat disdainful smile across her face. "But... Which one?"
<Dias> 6It's a picture of Iceheart showering.
<Xanatos> So...aren't you going to open up you gift?
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... you've only been on this station for 24 hours...
* Ariel looks between the two of them. Then points to Dias.
<Dias> I work fast. 6He rocks back on the heels.
* Xanatos holds it up to Erevis with his other hand.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis takes the gift, eyeing it.
<Xanatos> *Marcus stares. "Damn she's hott. OH I REMEMBER HER!"
<Xanatos> <Marcus> ..she hates me. *he frowns*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien shakes his head, putting it into his pocket. "Stop being a perv."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Says the man putting it into his pocket.
<Dias> We all hate you...6He looks at Darien. 1"Hey! I want that back.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I have to kee pit from him.
* Megumi rubs her chin, then smiles again.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Sure sure. I can't believe you're doing that in front of Ariel...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs exaggeratedly. "I'm not like you two idiots."
* Megumi expends some of her focus and appears before Darien within inches after a sprint. "Mister Darien..."
<Dias> Thank god. 6He acts like it's a compliment.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> You're not like us because...you don't care if you hurt Ariel's feelings and we do?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes?
* Megumi reaches up at flicks his nose.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien catches her fingers.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Bad Megumi.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Damn that was lightning fast!
<Dias> ...Look, if you're not gonna help me find Kat. I'll just do it myself. 6He begins sniffing, his nostrils flaring.
* Xanatos tilts his head. "What?"
* Megumi used that as a distraction, her other hand snatching from his pocket and then using more of her focus to attempt to sprint for the exit.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Pssst. Dias. Ask the computer.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches her run away with a card.
<Dias> Computer ignores me.
* Megumi doesn't care if she has the real thing or not. "Hey Dias, you wanted this back, right?" clutched in her hand.
* Dias looks at Megumi. 1"Eh, I can get more."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Oh sucks for you.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am admiring the outside.
<Megumi> "Oh, that's fine."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien slides into his pocket and hands Ariel the picture. "She says she likes you, by the way."
<Megumi> "I was just curious if you wanted it back from Erevis."
<Xanatos> Oh? Well it's nothing much. I got a little bow crazy...there's like 5 of them I think...*he smiles lightly*
<Dias> No, not really....6He looks at Marcus. 1"I know, you ask the computer.
* Megumi gives up. Doing anything with Dias is pointless. Wonders what the card is.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Hey i'm not losing my computer privelages over you.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. It is pretty. 6She sets it aside as not to ruin it.
<Xanatos> ...but aren't you going to open it?
<Dias> Oh come on...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not want to destroy the wrapping.
<Xanatos> But...then you wont get the gift on the inside.
<DeathStar> 6* The card is a card with the face of a Joker.
* Megumi flings it at Darien, whilst returning to the table.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien catches it with two fingers.
* Megumi shrugs at Ariel. "I tried."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I like it too much.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Give me 200 credits that aren't mind and i'll do it.
* Xanatos nods. "Open it and I will wrap you a new one, just like that one."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> But...
<Megumi> "There's always option B, but I don't think ruining Madame's place would be worth getting rid of the loon for a night with Peacemaker."
<Xanatos> Well you don't have to. But I guess I could go ahead and tell you what the gift is...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is acceptable.
* Xanatos pauses and rubs his chin. "Ok. I have to remember first..."
* Dias has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> NRP: MEGUMI WINS
<Xanatos> Oh. *he snaps his fingers* It's a picture of your family.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> My...family?
<Xanatos> Yes.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not have a family.
<Xanatos> Oh? Then who did I paint?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
<Xanatos> Now you're just going to have to open it and find out.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No I don't. 6She says stubbornly.
* Dias has joined #taw
<Xanatos> Or you could be stubborn and miss this awesome lesson that i'm about to teach you.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks at Megumi. "I want to order a sandwich."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
<Xanatos> What's the point of being stubborn?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ...
<Xanatos> What do you accomplish?
* Megumi is sobbing, since she can't trick someone too dumb to trick, and can't sacrifice the bar to beat him up instead, over not being carried by Ariel-- Even if it is because she wouldn't be able to walk afterward.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ....
<DeathStar> <Darien> .... my sandwich?
* Megumi therefore, remains completely ignorant to Darien's half-hearted order.
<Xanatos> Come'on, I really wanna know.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sighs, and opens the gift.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs.
<Dias> Ok. 6He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a wallet, handing him 200 credits
* Ariel looks to Megumi, "You alright?"
* Megumi nods silently. ;_;
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sulks over the loss of his sandwich. He tries to ignore Megumi crying.
<Xanatos> *It's a portrait of everyone that has been a part of the group, some are seated in chairs, others standing, each one has a pleasant look on their face, even Warren.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> This isn't very accurate.
<Xanatos> Well I didn't want you to remember Warren as a sour-puss.
<Xanatos> And I have seen him smile before...but he doesn't know that.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> But that is who he is.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You should not alter pictures from the truth.
<Xanatos> ....then give it back. I'll fix it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis hands it back.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Computer. Where is Katrina located?
<Xanatos> *Marcus takes the credits.
<DeathStar> <Computer> Katrina is located in her office.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Thank you, Computer.
* Xanatos just nods to Dias.
* Dias turns to go then stops. 1"Where's her office?"
<Xanatos> NRP: Marcus*
<DeathStar> <Computer> Now it'll cost 200 credits to find out where her office is.
<Xanatos> *Marcus. "I'll just show you. I passed by it running after Adam." He walks on.
<Dias> 150.
<DeathStar> <Computer> 175.
* Xanatos frowns and sighs. "Well so much for that."
<Dias> 160
<DeathStar> <Computer> 170
<Dias> 164
<DeathStar> <Computer> 169.
<Dias> Deal.
<DeathStar> 6* A box opens in the wall.
<DeathStar> <Computer> Dump it in here.
* Dias moves over to the box and tosses in 169 gil.
<Dias> NRP: credits
<DeathStar> 6* The box closes, then the lights lead the way.
* Dias turns, moving after the lights.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares at Dias haggling with the computer.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... .... Wow.
<Xanatos> If you hand the wrapping over i'll rewrap it for you as well.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No. I like the wrapping.
<Megumi> "...Did you want something Darien?"
<Xanatos> *Marcus just sighs and walk in another direction.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs and lets his forehead hit his arm.
<Xanatos> But it's slightly ripped now.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I like the wrapping. 6She repeats.
* Dias moves along the hallways.
<Xanatos> Fine fine. *he points to Erevis holding Siawase in her lap* Was this part at least accurate?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> He should look fluffier.
<Megumi> "Mister Darien, this is no place to nap."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien ignores her.
<Megumi> "Mister Adam frequents this place."
<Xanatos> ...I don't even know why I try...*he sighs and moves over to toss it in the trash*
* Dias stops outside her office and knocks on the door rather brazenly
<DeathStar> <Darien> You should be more worried for yourself. He rapes young girls.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Come in.
<Megumi> "It's alright. I don't believe you'll allow that."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances up. "Oh?"
<Megumi> "You wanted a sandwich, right?"
* Dias opens the door and slides in. 1"Hey good looking!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina eyes him. "Well, that's a greeting."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Because you want to make a gift?
* Megumi ambles off to retrieve one. Considering it's Darrien, there's bound to be one off in a cooler or something.
<Xanatos> But I just can't do anything right. *he says, sitting down in a chair*
* Dias smiles proudly and moves over to her desk. 1"I try."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
<Xanatos> I just don'
<Xanatos> I just don't have the memory I used too.
* Megumi returns, balancing a plate with a sandwich upon it atop Darien's head.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. I am ... sorry
<DeathStar> <Katrina> .... So what do you need, Dias?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances up. "Ha ha."
<Dias> To say hello, duh.
<Xanatos> Really? It's not your fault.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> But I made you sad.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Okay. .... Well, you said hi
<Xanatos> Well i'm more sad at myself...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see.
<Xanatos> Of course...you did make me a little sad...
* Dias crosses his arms. 1"I see, all business. Can't even greet your brothers best friend."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I apologize
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I...didn't really know you.
* Xanatos holds his arms out for a hug, tilting his head.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Besides those awkward moments when you were in my shower with the camera.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... what?
<Xanatos> I think a hug would make everything better.
<Dias> It helps me remember who you are.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then get up for one.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh, really? ha ha ha.
<Xanatos> But...i'm comfrotable.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina leans back in her chair.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then you can remain comfortable.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You had the lens on, anyway.
<Xanatos> So I guess sitting on my lap is just pushing it then?
<Dias> So that's why those pictures turned all black...6He crosses his arms, nodding to himself slowly
* Megumi strikes the edge of the plate with her balled hand, sending the sandwich catapulting into the air and the plate endoing in front of Darrien's face. It turns out fine, though, the plate correctly upside on the table with the sandwich landing centered. "Enjoy."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not see the need to sit on your lap.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Thank you, Megumi. 6He gives her a smile.
<Xanatos> I guess not. *he frowns and glances up at the ceiling* I'm never going to get you to accept your humanity, am I?
* Megumi bows slightly, in a more than usually formal manner, eyes crested halfway shut. "My pleasure."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... I do not know.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien takes a bite of the sandwich
<Xanatos> What exactly is keeping you from doing so?
<Dias> So how things going for ya? 6He plops down in a seat.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am content with who I am.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *pauses, then laughs a bit* They're going fine. And you?
<Dias> Oh apparenlty I have a brother.
<Xanatos> I really don't like that word. Content. It's just a...I dunno, I just don't like the word.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Is he nice?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<Dias> Depends on how you define nice. 6He reaches over to grab something off her desk, eyeing it as if it's the most complicated thing ever.
* Xanatos glances down at her again. "So it's only the content thing? There's not some deeper meaning to it all? Some view of humanity that you detest or some deep seeded fear?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, how do you define nice?
<Dias> Oh in that way, no, he likes to stab things and has this wierd desire to touch my head all the time.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I see. How does this make you feel?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .....
<Dias> Odd. But I know I wanna kick his ass tho, so I'm excited about that.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> That's good. Focusing yourself.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis shifts on her bed, not answering.
<Xanatos> I'm just trying to understand. I don't wish to upset you or anything like that. I just want to understand, and instead of beating around the bush I decided it was best to just ask you. You're an honest girl. You can tell me the truth.
<Dias> What do you mean? 6He looks at her.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am not human. It is as simple as that, Xanatos Durran.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, by focusing on beating Ripple, it gives you drive and focus. Which will help you.
<Dias> You think so?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Just don't get too focused, or you may lose sight of things.
<Dias> Like walls?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yes, like walls.
<Dias> I hate walls...Always getting in my way. If only I could walk through them.
<Xanatos> Not completely, no. You're absolutely right. But neither are the Erusians, the Cartel, or the Tsiv. But they still show signs of humanity. And they act upon that, they don't remain content. They strive to better themselves.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina smiles.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> So you think I am not good enough?
<Dias> Someday...I'll walk through a wall. 6He nods. 1"Than I'll be able to get into the girls showers like John and I always planned on."
<Xanatos> I never said that. You're warping my words...a very humanlike thing to do.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, let me know how that goes.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am not warping your words.
* Dias turns and eyes a wall. He hops and runs towards it, slamming into it and falls down.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You say they better themselves, but imply I do not
<Dias> Ow...
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina stares at him leaning over her desk. "You alive?"
<Dias> I think I need mouth to mouth.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You'll just have to die, I'm afraid.
<Xanatos> That doesn't make you worse off. Just means that you don't fully gain the joys of life they do. Of course you don't exactly recieve the harshness of life either.
<Dias> No, I gotta beat Ripple. I can't die right now.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am who I am, Xanatos Durran. That will not change.
<Xanatos> I see. And don't get me wrong, you're wonderful. I just believe that change is sometimes good for everyone. And I think you might be more satisfied if you change a little. Of course I could be wrong too. It's a scary thing. Change is, you might end up turning into someone that you truly do not want to be.
* Dias sits up, rubbing his face. 1"It's just not fair that he get's these cool powers and all I get is the ability to punch things with my fist.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Have you tried to use cool powers?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You want me to change, Xanatos Durran. 6She notes, closing her eyes.
* Dias looks at her then closes his eyes, his face contorting.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina watches him with interest.
* Dias opens one of his eyes. 1"Anything cool happen?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> 'fraid not, kiddo.
<Dias> Wait...I need proper motivation. 6He stands up and stares at Kat, then clothes his eyes.
* Xanatos tilts his head. "Ok, I'll be honest with you."
<Dias> NRP: closes
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ...
* Dias slowly opens his eyes. 1"Bah, you're clothes are still on."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis opens her eyes.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> 'fraid so, kiddo.
<Dias> So I heard a rumor.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Alright. What kind of rumor?
<Dias> That there's a chick on this ship that can screw a Ridarium and survive.
<Xanatos> I've said it before I believe. But whenever we got to fix our mistakes, you and I. We were in love. You were still you, but you did not mind to show that you cared for me. I've seen what you can become in turms of showing emotions, loving, laughing. And I guess I just want to get you to that point. Because you seemed so much happier than you are now.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh, Elayne.
<Dias> Elayne? I knew an Elayne once.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I wouldn't be surprised.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You saw an alternate world.
<Dias> What do you mean?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh, nothing.
<Dias> Oh. So this rumors true than....That's just wicked.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Uh, if you can call it that.
<Dias> Come on, a girl who'll screw a Ridarium. That's a girl who'll try anything. 6He pulls out two puppets too emphasize the anything part
<Xanatos> It wasn't really an alternate world though. It was this world, if a few choices were different...if I hadn't let you go that evening...Sure, the outcome ended up being worse than life is now. But us...we could be that...I guess I just wanted us to be that, because...well...we were engaged, and I didn't make you either.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *sighs*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You should not believe what alien beings show you.
<Xanatos> Why?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Because it has no grounds in fact.
* Dias puts the puppets away. 1"So any other cool gossip you can talk to me about? 6He props head on his arms ontop her desk as he wiggles his butt around.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I... don't think so.
<Xanatos> Logically...neither does reality warping abilities...but we're living in a world that has that.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh, wait, I heard Angela tried to get Darien to have sex with her.
<Dias> But you got all the inside info.
<Dias> Really?! She reminds me of granny Sera.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> She IS Sera.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Believe what you wish, then.
<Dias> Oh come on. Granny Sera has grey hair. Angela's got gray....er hair.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> She made herself human so she looks different.
<Dias> Yeah, I'm not following.
* Xanatos taps his chin. "Can I give you a little advice? Well...it's not really advice...just more of an idea."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Okay, Sera made herself look different and became Angela.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If you wish.
<Dias> Sounds kind of unbelievable. I mean, I'd think I'd know if they were the same people.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You said yourself she reminds you of Sera.
<Dias> A lot of easy people remind me of Sera.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Okay, here's an example. 6Katrina takes two puppets. She then stuffs one puppet inside another.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> This is what Sera did.
<Dias> She had sex with Angela?
<Dias> WICKED!
<DeathStar> <Katrina> .... *sighs* You're just pretending nto to understand, so you can continue to make goofy jokes about Angela and remain oblivious she is Serena.
<Xanatos> Humans only coined the term, humanity. But the term doesn't exactly persist to just humans. Every being in the world feels and responds in similar fashion regardless of if they have met humans before or not. It's not that they are being humanlike...they are just living their lives.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> But, if ou don't believe me, ask Erevis. She never lies, does she?
<Dias> Let's say I believed you, which I don't, how why would she do that?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis listens.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *sighs* She has special powers. Like, uh, your brother.
<Dias> She can open up portals?!
<DeathStar> <KAtrina> No. Her powers make her look like Angela instead of Sera.
<Xanatos> If perhaps you just don't show certain emotions in your way of living. Well...I guess i'll learn to deal with that. But if you're holding back, because you're afraid to get too close, or because you just might not like the person you will become. Then well...you're technically living...eating, breathing and all of that. But you're not really living life. Enjoying it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am not enjoying life by your standards.
<Dias> So granny Sera's impersonating Angela...But that's so lame. You should be yourself. I wouldn't want to be anyone else.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> She has identity issues and always tries to remake herself so people like her,.
<Dias> I beat people up until they like me.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... Uh...oaky.
<Dias> Worked on Marcus.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I suppose that's...one way to do it.
<Xanatos> You don't have to. My standards may be completely different from somone else. Look at Ariel. She enjoys life, and yes, she is similar to you, guarded emotions and such. But do you see the way she acts around Darien? Do you feel her feeling through your bond? She's not afraid to show that she cares for him. Even though he might not like her in that way, he still cares for her too.
<Dias> Did you know, that there's a place in a humans head that if you shoot it, it'll explode.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...............
<DeathStar> <KAtrina> I... didn't know that.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien rubs his goatee, eyeing Megumi. "I sense someone using me as an example."
<Dias> True story. 6He nods. "Zephyr told me that."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, I guess she would know.
* Xanatos holds up both of his hands. "I want you to be who you are. And if this, the person if front of me, is truly you, not holding anything back. Then that's wonderful. And I'll love every minute I spend around you."
<Dias> Did you know that Zephyr looks very hot in one of those nurse outfits?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I somehow do not believe that.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I didn't know that, either.
<Megumi> "You're weird. You can sense that sort of thing?"
<Dias> Oooh, I bet you'd look hot in a Kimono.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Sometimes.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I know I would.
<Dias> But I bet you'd look hot in anything.
<Dias> Especially nothing at all.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> It's true.
<Xanatos> I've been pushing you to be something you're not. And for that i'm truly sorry. I guess my desire for us to be the way it was shown to me in that alternate reality...well I guess it clouded my judgement, and that was wrong.
<Xanatos> But...
<Xanatos> Now, i'm bringing it to the table that I believe you can be something more. And if I'm wrong. I just want you to tell me. Not the stubborn part of you that doesn't want to believe you could be. But the honest part.
<Dias> Your fun to talk to.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, thank you.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not see how I can be what I am not.
* Dias waits, staring at her.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *pauses* you're fun to talk with, also.
<Dias> Thanks!
<Dias> So do you miss him at all? 6He looks at her, a distant look in his eyes.
* Xanatos pauses and frowns, "I mixed up my words. I've been pushing you to be something that you're not currently. And I've been going about it the wrong way. Pressuring you and things like that. So I guess I was hoping this would be the right way. TO be upfront and honest. Just like I said I was going to be."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina smiles sadly. "Of course."
<Dias> What do you do?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I appreciate your honesty, but I am also being honest.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'm a counselor.
<Dias> No, what do you do to keep moving forward?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, I was gone. So .... my life was far removed from John by the time he was gone.
<Xanatos> You told me. You said that before you always wished that I cared for you the way I did for Kat. Well did you ever see yourself loving me back?
<Dias> But you still lost him...It'd be like going on vacation and coming back to find your pet dog ran away.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not see how I can do something that I do not know how to do.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> When you come back to find your entire life in shambles, you either try to start new, or you despair
<Xanatos> Maybe I could show you? I taught you alot when you first came to this planet. Perhaps love is something that I can also teach you.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not see how you can teach an emotion.
<Dias> You know what I do?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> What?
<Xanatos> I could teach you the aspects of the emotion. You already can feel anger, annoyance, content. I'm positive you can feel love, you just never have so you do not know how.
<Xanatos> You may have felt love and not even known it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis just looks tired now.
<Dias> I tell myself that this is what John would want me to do. That even he wouldn't let something like a psychotic obsessive brother nearly killing him keep him down.
<DeathStar> <KAtrina> He wouldn't.
<Dias> I actually forgot about that for a bit until Zephyr reminded me..
<DeathStar> <Katrina> How?
* Xanatos pauses. "I've tired you out. I'm sorry. I'll let you rest on it. Let you think about it and see what you determine your course of action will be."
<Dias> I lost track of myself after getting beat bad.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Very well.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, John always lived for the next challenge. The more you beat him up, the more he wanted to try again.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lays down on the bed, not bothering to remove her clothing, and closes her eyes.
* Megumi is now known as Kit
<Dias> I let fear take me. 6He scrunches his face
<DeathStar> <Katrina> John would be afraid sometimes, too.
* Xanatos stands and smiles towards her, he gets a blanket and gently places it on her. Then he moves for the door.
<Dias> But I'm gonna beat this Ripple guy. And I'm gonna do it because John would want me to.
* Xanatos closes it gently and then moves down the hallway, whistling.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'm sure he would be proud.
<Dias> And then I'm gonna goto the strip club...
<DeathStar> <Katrina> And celebrate?
<Dias> Oh, I was just gonna look at some tits but I could celebrate too.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *laughs*
<Dias> Your welcome to join me.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'll pass.
<Dias> Alright...6He stands up, holding his arms out.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... No.
<Dias> No what? 6He looks at her oddly
* Ariel is now known as Ari[AWAY]
<DeathStar> <Katrina> No you know what.
<Dias> Uhh...no? 6He scratches his head
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yes, no,.
* Dias looks around confused.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina nods, looking satisfied
<Dias> ...I. 6He blinks then scratches his head.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You can go now.
<Dias> I can go now. 6He nods and turns, moving out

Session Ident: #taw
* Logging #taw to 'logs\EsperNet\#taw.20070814.log'
<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-586.8.2 - 1 day after last mini-
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
* Dias comes flying down the civilian quarters hallway ontop of a small mini-bike
<DeathStar> 6* Darien spins a wooden sword while standing in the training room.
* Gabriella is now known as Seraphna
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Seraphna
* Alicia is now known as Red_Fox
<Dias> 6Shiva plops down in the garden on a bench. She leans back and closes her eyes
* Seraphna sits nearby, watching Darien train.
<Red_Fox> "You've improved."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I guess you haven't seen me since I got a new brain.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien spins it with one hand, glancing over at Fox with a lopsided grin.
<Seraphna> "You do seem a bit out of practice."
<Red_Fox> "New brain? You make yourself sound like you were Xanatos."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien laughs a bit, tossing the sword up. "Not exactly."
* Dias suddenly swirves around a corner and loses control, slamming right into Elayne Hianules door
* Seraphna is now known as Angela
<Angela> * Elayne blinks, opening her door to see what just put a dent in it.
* Dias lies there, trapped under a tiny motorcycle
<Angela> Elayne> "Dias...?"
* Angela stands and stretches a bit.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns to face them as the sword is in the air. "So, are you two enjoying your vacation?"
* Dias just groans in response
<Angela> "Well, until he starts talking to trees we should be fine."
<Red_Fox> "It's nice to be on the PAX again."
<Angela> "Very much, it's good to get out of those labs."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You were on this station before?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien reaches up without looking and catches the sword.
<Angela> "Well... we were on A PAX."
<Red_Fox> "The original."
* Angela smiles at Darien, "Okay, maybe more in practice then you looked."
<Angela> * Elayne helps Dias up.
<DeathStar> <Darien> The day I quit knowing how to use a sword is the day I retire.
* Dias stumbles up, falling into Elayne as he grabs his head.
<Red_Fox> "I need to start training more. That Ripple guy showed me how much I need to practise."
<Angela> * Elayne steadies him, "You okay?"
* Angela looks down at the mention of Ripple, her hand clenching into a fist.
<Red_Fox> "Worse than I thought?"
* Dias lowers his hand from her boob. 1"Huh...Hey, you look familiar."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans the wooden sword over his shoulder as the watches the two.
<Angela> Elayne> "I should, you slept with me."
<Dias> When?
* Dias scratches his head as he tries to remember
* Angela shakes her head, "You were fine... I'm the one that needs work... a lot of work."
<Red_Fox> "We both do."
<Angela> Elayne> "Back when you were wandering with McCormick."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns his back to them, then suddenly flings his sword toward Fox's face.
<Dias> ...6Blinks. 1"Wait, bend over real quick."
* Red_Fox catches it
* Angela blinks, looking between them as though trying to follow what happened.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances over his shoulder. "Not bad."
<Red_Fox> "Thanks."
<Angela> "Yikes..."
<Red_Fox> "Hmm?"
<Angela> "There's no way I coulda caught that..."
<Angela> Elayne> "We did it missionary."
<DeathStar> <Darien> As long as you have good reflexes, you can avoid unnecessary damage in a fight.
<Red_Fox> "You've always been a gunner, anyway."
<Dias> Oh that'd explain it. 6He hrmm's.
<Angela> "Yeah but... I used to be able to dodge Darkness tendrils... they move a lot faster then that."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks aghast.
<Angela> Elayne> "You alright?"
* Angela looks at Darien.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Faster than my throws?
<Red_Fox> "Maybe you're out of practise?"
<Dias> Nothing a stiff drink and limber fingers couldn't help solve.
<Angela> "I lost a lot discarding my Dragoon side..."
<Angela> "Oh well... I make up for it in smarts."
* Angela smiles
<Angela> Elayne> "Bar's down the hall, want a drink?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> And other qualities.
* Angela blinks and looks at Darien, blushing a little, "...Oh?"
* Dias glances down the hall. 1"You live next to a bar?!"
* Kit has joined #taw
<Angela> Elayne> "I live near the end of the diplomatic chambers. Bars get thier best business after Council meetings."
<Dias> I didn't understand anything you said before and after the bars so I'm going to assume that means yes.
<Angela> Elayne> "...Yes."
* Kit invites you to join #tawny
<Dias> Awesome! 6He claps his hands together. 1"To the bar!" 6He grabs her hand and turns, running down the opposite way of the bar.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hasn't answered, studying something else.
<Angela> * Elayne sighs, "Other way."
<Dias> Oh...6He skids to a stop and turns the other way, jerking her that way
* Angela pouts a little and crosses her arm, "So... what to do?"
<Angela> * Elayne gets pulled along.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Can't find anything to do?
<Angela> "You're my entertainment... I'd rather not spend time with the Vapaad."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm a boring old man, I'm afraid.
<Angela> "Kieran seems intent of finding out why I'm not the 'third mind' anymore."
<Red_Fox> "... ugh. I'm glad I'm not of any interest to them."
<Angela> "You're not boring."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Shouldn't girls your age be chasing boys?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien motions at them bothn.
<Red_Fox> "Should I?"
* Dias goes running full speed into the bar and slides to a stop, quickly seating himself at a table. 1"BAR KEEP! TWO OF YOUR FINEST BEERS!"
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *hands them out* "You're eager."
* Angela blinks and shrugs, "I guess, but I'm kinda exhausted on love."
<Dias> Damn right. 6He grabs both and begins drinking one
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> *blinks at the two*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, Stella, you're only about 23-24.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's pretty young.
<Angela> "I might look maybe 16... but I feel OLD."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I might look 27, but I am old.
* Dias looks over at Elayne. 1"Not gonna drink?
<Red_Fox> "I guess I am just a kid compared to you. I didn't even exist in the other universe."
* Kit is now known as Megumi
<Angela> * Elayne takes another sip. "I am."
<Megumi> "Yeah, not going to drink..?"
* Megumi ...is there!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien tosses a ball toward Angela; much slower than he threw a sword at Fox.
* Megumi has her ways.
* Angela catches it, blinking.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You still have some reflexes.
<Angela> "Well, yeah... just no Dragoon traits to enhance them... I assume I didn't lose my training..."
<Red_Fox> "I'd hope not."
<Megumi> "Dragoon?"
<Dias> So this is the PAX station huh?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits down on the bench in the training room, sighing like an old man
<Megumi> "Aren't goons bad people?"
<Megumi> "Goons in drag?"
* Dias glances around at the bar, his eyes setting on the various guys in the bar
* Angela takes a seat next to him. "Oh quit it, you're still young too Darien..."
<Angela> Elayne> "Yes it is."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien waves his hand in a dissmissal. "Bah."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Lately, I swear my joints have been aching. True story.
<Dias> There really isn't anyone really strong on here is there? 6He downs his first beer already, moving onto his second
<Angela> "Right, and you want those darn kids off your lawn?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> No, just certain ambassadors.
<Angela> Elayne> "Ariel, Darce, and I don't know if you wanna fight a Vapaad."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... there are a few."
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "Isn't it a little unfair, fighting a Vapaad?"
<Angela> "Heh... I can imagine..."
<Angela> Elayne> "For which side?"
<Dias> So there's a strong chick, a chick and whatever teh hell a vapaad is.
<Dias> For them? Definetly unfair. 6He smiles cockilly
<Angela> Elayne> "And Darce is a man."
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, tell me. 6He leans in close like he's going to share a secret. "Out of all the human traits you always wanted, how's PMS gas?"
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "Well, the Vapaads get their armour... since they can't live without it."
* Angela grimaces at him, "Not the joy I thought it would be!"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien laughs, slapping his knee.
* Dias looks over at Terra. 1"And I've already beaten you...He looks over at Elayne. 1"Who the hell names their boy Darce?"
<Red_Fox> "The grass is usually greener on the other side."
* Megumi crosses her arms and rests them on the counter, staring past Terra, slightly glaring at Dias.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Isn't he one of yours, Elayne?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Words of wisdom, Stella.
<Angela> Elayne> "Yes, he's a Vertex Atlantean."
* Angela smiles
<Angela> "At least... I can have a baby..."
<Dias> More words I don't understand. All I know is I'm getting bored of sending wimps to Medbay
<Angela> "It's really what I wanted out of this..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Just don't have Dias' baby.
<Red_Fox> "I prefer Scarlet, really... but I guess I shouldn't complain about names."
<Angela> "I'd want a father that's going to stick around."
<DeathStar> <Darien> A father that will stick around? Xanatos.
<Red_Fox> "... at least it's not genetic."
<Angela> "He's obsessed with Erevis. Besides... I betrayed him..."
* Angela looks away
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances at Angela, and pats her on the shoulder.
* Dias looks over at Megumi. 1
<Dias> Hyper crazy girl!
* Red_Fox looks down at the floor, uncertain how to respond
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, who wants cookies? 6He pulls out a knapsack and offers her a cookie.
<Angela> "I'll... find someone... is that an Omega Cookie?"
* Angela looks at it.
* Megumi squints. "Yes?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ye--no.
<Megumi> "Name's Megumi, moron."
<Dias> Megumi Moron. I'll remember that. 6He nods to her and looks back at Terra, Vyssa and Elayne
* Angela sighs and takes the cookie.
<Angela> * Elayne smiles at him, "Megumi has a reputation for fighting."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "That's not her surname..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eats the cookie, hypnotically.
* Red_Fox eyes Darien, then the cookies.
<Dias> I already know. 6He smiles himself, beaming rather proudly
<Angela> "Scarlet... remind me to look into the Omega products when we get back..."
<Red_Fox> "I will. Did you know the doctor was looking for you?"
<Angela> Elayne> "Why don't you try Ariel then?"
<Angela> "Doctor...?"
<Red_Fox> "Peacemaker. She wanted to talk about 'your' Omega Coke."
<Dias> She won't fight me. 6He sighs, finishing his second beer. He motions for 3 more.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *hands some out*
<Angela> "I swear I don't even remember signing for those."
<Dias> Hell, make it a round for everyone. Even the little runt over there. 6He motions to Megumi
* Angela sighs, "I'll see her before we leave."
* Dias grabs his three and begins drinking down the 1st.
<Angela> Elayne> "Have you tried insulting her kids?"
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "What is the fascination with combat?"
<Dias> Why would I insult her kids? I love them. 6He wiggles his eyebrows*
<Megumi> "Fighting is how you get better at fighting."
<Angela> Elayne> "All of them?"
<Dias> Sure why not.
* Megumi takes a step and chunks a napkin box at Dias for the earlier misconception.
<Megumi> "So naturally fighters want to fight."
<Angela> Elayne> "Wow."
* Dias is nailed and goes tumbling over his chair.
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "So, it's common enough to be important here."
* Dias 's hand slowly reaches up to the table and begins searching for his beer. He grabs it and pulls it back down under to the floor
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "I'm beginning to wonder if I should have brought a guardian after all."
* Angela pokes Darien.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks up. "Yes?"
<Angela> "Another bother from my change, I require things like food and air... how about we grab a bite?"
<Red_Fox> "I've always wondered what that was like."
* Dias slowly rises and takes his seat, acting as if nothing happened. 1"Man I'm thirsty. 6He grabs #2 of 3 beers and begins drinking it
<Angela> "Dunno, I breathed and ate anyways, but it was more a trained habit."
<Megumi> "Why would you want a guardian?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands. "Alright."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Lead the way.
* Angela gets up and looks at him, "...Where is there to eat on this place?"
<Dias> I'd guard ya, but I'm only hear for abit to beat up as many people as possible and get strong enough to beat up this guy who's trying to...touch my head.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... you've been to Terra's bar several times already. 6He hangs his head about. "Alright, follow me."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks along.
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "You dislike having your head touched that much?"
<Megumi> "Of course, there's not much left."
<Dias> No, I love it when woman touch my head. It's jsut when guys do that I get creeped out.
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "Something sexual then."
<Dias> That too. 6He nods
* Angela walks with him.
<Dias> So speaking of really touch guy's with chicks names. 6He looks over at Elayne. 1"How tough is this Darce chick...guy..thing.
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "The station itself seems safe enough, though."
<Angela> Elayne> "He lives his life tracking down criminals. I assume he's good."
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "The worst that has happened has been that brawl."
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "Tracking down, or disposing of?"
<Dias> Well I don't go off assumptions otherwise I never would've slept with you, Elayne.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps into Terra's bar.
<Angela> * Elayne sets down the drink.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Hey, Darien."
* Dias suddenly blinks, he narrows his eyes as he begins glancing around
* Angela steps in and looks around, sticking to Darien's side.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks along, stopping at a table and smiling at Megumi and Terra. "Sandwiches for me."
* Dias spots Darienl. 1"That'd explain it." He looks back over at Elayne, smiling at her as he drinks #3 of 3
* Angela takes a seat with Darien and nods in agreement to sandwiches.
* Red_Fox follows Angela in
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *hands a sandwich to Darien, eyeing Fox*
<Angela> "...Think I can get away with beer?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> And a beer for Angie.
* Angela grins.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Right." *hands one over*
* Dias looks over at Megumi. 1"See, they serve minors here. Drink up"
* Angela takes a sip. "Haven't been able to do this since the change, have to drink at home."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "She's really a minor? I thought she'd been around since the first PAX?"
<Angela> "General of Janus and I can't even walk into a bar."
<Megumi> "Hi, mister Darien, shut up Dias."
<Angela> "No, the body just disagrees with the mind."
* Dias motions. 1"And that's what set's us apart Terra. I just know these things."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... right."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods to Megumi. "I'm sure you could buy a bar."
* Dias yawns and stretches his arms out, grabbing Elayne's boob.
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> *eyes Dias* "You don't seem to have any psychic ability."
<Dias> Yeah none of whatever you said. But I have a nose that knows.
<Angela> * Elayne looks at him.
* Dias smiels at Elayne
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "I find it unlikely that you can smell the age of people."
* Angela takes another sip and giggles. "...Yep, body definately disagrees."
<Dias> I can tell if a gir...Just truts me on this. 6He looks over at Elayne. 1"You're awfully quiet. Infact last time I remember, you were much more funner to hang with."
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "Oh, I see. You can detect maturity."
<Angela> Elayne> "Really." *she grins and downs the remains of her beer in one go*
<Dias> Legal, mature, in the end good looking lizard lady, there's no difference.
* Dias tilts his head over to Elayne. 1"And I remeber you using more and bigger words too."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien keeps an eye on Angela to see how drunk she gets.
* Red_Fox does similar
* Angela is halway done with a beer and already loopy.
<Red_Fox> "I'll have one as well, I guess."
* Dias glances at Angela than leans over to Terra. 1"Pssst, did you know that Seraphna and Angela are doing each other. Kat explained it all to me with my puppets."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *eyes Fox for a moment, then hands one over*
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... what?"
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Isn't that like...?"
* Dias nods
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Well, it's not really incest..."
<Dias> Hot, I know.
* Red_Fox eyes Terra and Dias now
* Angela giggles and drinks a bit more, smiling at Darien, "So... how long're you hanginin out herrre?"
<Ariel> Strife> *cringes*
<Angela> Elayne> "I'll have another."
* Dias suddenly snaps his attention over at Angela, his drunk chick radar pinging madly
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *hands one to Elayne* <Scary, I know.>
<Red_Fox> "... what do you want?"
<Dias> Crazy Girl! 6He waves at Red Fox and turns back to his table and pulls out a deck of cards and begins shuffling them in random ways. 1"So tell me something about yourself Elayne."
* Angela looks around and eyes Dias groggily, smiling.
<Angela> Elayne> "I'm the only woman around that can maintain relations with a Ridarium and live to tell about it."
* Red_Fox gains a faint victorious look
<Angela> * Elayne drinks down the beer.
* Red_Fox suddenly chokes on her beer
* Xan|Gone is now known as Xanatos
<Red_Fox> "You did WHAT?!"
<Dias> Wait a minute...6His mouth suddenly drops. 1"YOU'RE THAT ELAYNE?! OH MY GOD I WANT AN AUTOGRAPH!"
* Megumi loads a projectile. Not really watching the scene anymore. Having had her eyes closed for some time in boredom, her ears twitch once in a while instead signifying she's taking in the room merely based on sound... and still prepares to clock Dias with a not yet mentioned object.
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Xanatos
<Ariel> Strife> *is soooooooo not thinking about that*
<Angela> * Elayne giggles and smiles, finishing her drink.
* Angela looks at Elayne, "Did she say she had... with a rock?"
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *is desperately trying to think of something else too*
<Dias> I hear Ridariums prefer anal. Is this true? 6He looks at Elayne with pure interest now.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *thinks of asteroids. Yes. That's what Angela is talking about.*
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> *listens, with an obvious look of surprise*
<Angela> Elayne> "Depends on his mood..."
* Angela looks at Darien for confirmation.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns toward Angela. "I think you're drunk."
<Dias> That's awesome. You do anal. 6He laughs to himself and motions for a tall schooner of beer
<Megumi> "Jee, Mister Darien, do you think?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> It owuld appear so."
<Red_Fox> "Already."
<Megumi> "You appear to think. Appearances can be deceiving."
<Angela> "But... I only had one!"
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *hands out the beer, obviously tuning out the conversation*
<Xanatos> *Marcus steps into the bar and moves over to the others, he is sporting a black eye.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien just smiles mysteriously.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks behind Marcus, smiling and waving.
* Dias grabs the beer and takes a deep drink from it. 1"So does that mean we can't have sex?"
<Angela> Elayne> "...Does it? I'm sure I'm up for it."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I'm telling you man, you didn't have to punch me...
<DeathStar> <Adam> You should have ducked.
* Dias eyes Elayne then smiles widely.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... not you again."
* Dias grabs his beer and begins chugging it down.
<Angela> * Elayne grins.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Well excuse me. You shouldn't have actually punched. *he smiles at Terra* Hey you.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Hey."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam shoots his fist out at Terra, stopping 10 feet away, then does a thumbs up, smiling with a tooth sparkling. "A whiskey for evil."
* Angela suddenly goes grim, hearing a voice... her hand wanders to her gun.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien puts his hand on her hand.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... you still haven't paid for the last lot."
* Dias slams the glass down and moves over to Elayne picking her up and tossing her over his shoulder.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Well, I AM evil.
* Angela looks at Darien in protest. "...What if I just jet him between the legs... he'll live right?"
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "That means no drink for you."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I'm sure he's still drunk off of the last lot too. Evil man sure can't take his alcohol.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien keeps his hand on her's. "You're drunk. He'd win."
<Megumi> "Should I evict the evil?"
<Angela> * Elayne giggles and lets Dias do what he wants.
* Dias body slams her.
<Dias> NRP: Kidding!
* Angela pouts.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam looks sad. He sniffles.
<DeathStar> 6 Darien smiles at Angela.
* Dias takes off running to the nearest, whatever.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "You know, if he's not going to pay for what he already got, sure. Kick him out."
* Megumi meanwhile chunks a metal mug at escaping/kidnapping Dias'
* Dias darts out of the bar before it can happen, apparently he's faster when he's going to get laid.
* Xanatos slides Terra the credits for Adam. "Let the evil man have his drink."
<Xanatos> NRP: Marcus*
* Xanatos is now known as Marcus`
<DeathStar> <Adam> Thanks, man! For this generous moment, I shall train you to be my disciple!
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... wonderful." *hands Adam the drink now*
<Dias> 6Shiva stares at Dias run by with Elayne on his shoulder.
* Megumi pouts, having missed on both counts of goodwill.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam takes the drink, laughing evilly, then drinks the whiskey. He falls over drunk.
<Marcus`> You serio-*he pauses and stares at Adam* Well that was interesting.
<Dias> 6Shiva steps into the bar and glanecs around
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Ha. He can't take his booze."
* Red_Fox grins
* Marcus` shrugs and sits down at the bar. "All that evil keeps him from being so, clearly." he smiles. "So when we going on that date?"
* Angela drinks more of her unfinished beer.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam suddenly is sitting next to Marcus, propping his head up as he stares at Terra.
* Marcus` jumps. "Jesus christ man I though you were out cold!!"
<Dias> 6Shiva plops down beside Darien. She motions for a beer.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I heard date rape.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "So now you don't trust me to make my own decisions?"
<Marcus`> ...How did you get date rape out of date?
* Angela glares at Adam. Her enemy.
<DeathStar> <Adam> The rape part is implied.
<Dias> <Shiva> New girlfriend? Iceheart's not going to be happy to hear this one. 6She crosses her arms as she waits for her beer.
* Red_Fox eyes Adam, considering the ways she could finish him, if required.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You know me. I'm always getting the younger model.
* Angela blinks, looking at Shiva a moment, then Darien.
* Marcus` laughs. "I'm not you."
<Angela> "Ice... heart...?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> A friend of mine.
<Dias> What is it...16'll give you 30?
<Red_Fox> "Who is that, anyway?"
<Dias> NRP: Shiva
<Red_Fox> "Ah."
<Angela> "I... remember that name..."
<Dias> <Shiva> It's someone he wants. 6She smiles.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses, then grabs Angela, slapping a hand over her mouth. He hurries off with her before she talks.
* Jackieness has joined #taw
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Jackieness
* Angela blinks and eepes as she's dragged away.
<DeathStar> <Adam> That man is all about rape. You can tell.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam points as DArien rushes off wiht Angela.
<Dias> <Shiva> It appears the dominant male has decided he's going to do the kid.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "...right."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sits by Shiva suddenly, wearing a monocle. "My thoughts exactly.'
* Marcus` watches him leave. "Nah, you don't have to rape Angela...well...you did...but that's beside the point."
<Dias> Can't get served here either? 6He looks over at Adam.
<Dias> NRP: Shiva
* Red_Fox heads after Darien and Angela, glaring at Adam as she leaves
<DeathStar> <Adam> Ooo, that one's a firecracker. 6He shivers at Fox. "Never can tell, since she barely speaks or is around, but a firecracker."
<Red_Fox> <Vyssa> "That's a lot of hatred."
<Dias> I thought most guys liked firecrackers.
* Dias is now known as Shiva`
* Angela looks at Darien curiously.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Well, you got yourself a firecracker, don't you?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pants, dropping Angela.
<Shiva`> I'm not sure what you're talking about. 6She glances at Adam dismissively
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sniffs her. "Smells like chocolate."
<Angela> "What is it with you and women who have tried to kill you?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Hah.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's...so not true.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien crosses his arms.
* Angela smirks. "Is too."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Listen. You're drunk. I don't have to listen.
<Angela> "I'm tipsy."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Drunk.
* Shiva` eyes Adam dangerously
<DeathStar> 6* Adam smiles.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam leans in close. "I postively adore your dark aura, Shiva."
* Angela smiles, "I still remember..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ramblings of a drunkard.
* Shiva` suddenly smirks seductively, she moves her hand out along his cheek, running her fingers along it
<DeathStar> 6* Adam catches her with a gloved hand before she can touch him.
<DeathStar> <Adam> No peeking into this mystery, doll.
* Marcus` redirects his attention to Terra now. "So...that date. We going or not?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Mysteries just aren't as interesting once solved, are they?
* Angela crosses her arms, "In an hour when it wears off I'll still be saying the same thing DS..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs. "You have too much energy."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "I'm busy with barwork."
<Angela> "I'm 16."
<Shiva`> No, but they're that much more interesting, now aren't they?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Isn't the 16 the terrible years?
<DeathStar> 6* Adam smiles, then falls over drunk.

<DeathStar> Stardate: A few hours after Episode 9
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina paces in the Ops, having let Shiva in despite regulations. "I'm worried."
<Shiva`> I'm sure it'll be alright Kat. 6She reaches a comforting had out and rests it on her shoulder
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Darien said he would contact me every few hours by comm. It's way past time.
<Elayne> * Kieran hovers outside of Ops.
* Shiva` narrows her eyes briefly then shakes her her as she looks over at Kat. 1"Maybe his comm broke.
* Xanatos sits in Darien's chair, head propped up onto his arms, his eyes locked onto the ground. "...i'm sure his comm broke." he says to reinforce Shiva's mention.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Okay. Lets assume the comm is broken while they die by some Tsivrixsh death trap.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sits down in a huff.
<Shiva`> Or let's assume a wormhole suddenly opened up and swallowed them up. Look Kat, you just have to relax and give it time. He'll contact us.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You know what, no. I'm going after them.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina stands up now.
* Xanatos looks to Kat. "Going after them!? Kat You're acting Rash."
<Vyssa> <Terra> *waits in the bar, and washes glasses idly* "I wonder how they're getting on.."
<Shiva`> Kat, think about this for a second.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina puts her fingers in her ears. "Not listening. Going." 6She walks for the exit.
* Shiva` reaches over and grabs Kat's arm gently. 1"Are you sure about this?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina squints. "Can't hear you."
* Xanatos looks to them both, standing up. "So I guess it's alright to just walk on into the trap along with em?
* Shiva` sighs and grabs her finger and pulls it out of her ear. 1"Are you sure about this?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yes, I am.
* Xanatos groans. "Well you can't exactly leave without my permission can you?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I never needed your damn permission in my life, Xanatos.
<Shiva`> I'm coming with. 6She puts Kat's finger back in her ear and moves out with her.
<Elayne> * Kieran floats there, looking at Kat as she steps out, "...You seek to follow the Starr into the Night...?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina removes her fingers and walks out.
* Xanatos rubs his chin, staring at them leaving. "...I can't exactly come with you, Shiva. Which is probably for the best. But please be careful."
<Vyssa> <Vyssa> *wanders the station, already having a good feel of the station, but getting to know it better*
<Shiva`> Don't worry Xanatos, I'll atleast keep her safe. 6She walks off with Kat
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Okay, first thing's first. ... we're stealing Darien's ship.
<Elayne> * Kieran floats after them.
<Elayne> Kieran> "...The vessel of Starr should speed the journey..."
<Shiva`> First things first, I need to slip into something else.
* Xanatos sighs and rubs his face. "...Darien probably knew I couldn't come rushing off after them if I have this station tolook over."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Go ahead. I'll go get his ship ready . We need a pilot.
<Shiva`> Perferably someone...easy on the eyes. 6She nods to Kat and moves off to her room.
<Elayne> Kieran> "...The Judge may be of assistance to the Fire Hair..."
* Xanatos slams his fist on his chair and hops up, running out of Ops, moving towards the hanger.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pauses, then glances at Kieran, then shakes her head, not understanding a word. She heads for the bar.
<Elayne> * Kieran follows right after her.

<DeathStar> Location: PAX
<DeathStar> 6* Darien lays in his bed, snoring.
* Megumi has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Alicia is now known as Vyssa
* Megumi has joined #taw
* Dias snores loudly as he sleeps in Angela's bed.
* Marcus` has his arms pulled head, walking through the halls.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam mimics Marcus as he walks along.
* Marcus` pauses and glacnes behind him to the left.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pauses, glancing behind him.
<Marcus`> ...is this part of my training?
<DeathStar> <Adam> Do you feel stronger?
* Elayne is now known as Angela
<Marcus`> No.
* Angela blinks awake after a nice, long nap.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Then it's clearly not training
* Dias snores, shuffling around.
<Marcus`> So you're just shadowing me.
<Vyssa> * Fox is in the training room, practising, having woken early
<DeathStar> <Adam> Yep.
* Angela blinks and looks next to her, and falls out of bed.
<Marcus`> Good job. Stop staring at my ass. *he moves on*
<DeathStar> <Adam> But it's such a female ass.
<Angela> "What the hell!"
<Marcus`> Yeah whatever.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sighs sadly.
* Dias suddenly jerks up, looking around, frantically.
* Angela looks down, confirming she's still wearing her night clothes. Sighing with relief.
<Angela> "When... how did you get in here?"
* Dias looks over at Angela. 1"...What are you doing in my Elayne's room?"
<Angela> "This isn't Elayne's room!"
* Marcus` steps into the training room and smiles. "Oh good morning Foxie!"
<Vyssa> <Red_Fox> "Morning."
<Dias> ...6He looks around groggily as he rubs his eyes, he then looks under the covers. 1"So these aren't Elayne's underwear I'm wearing than..."
<Marcus`> Training hard?
* Angela sighs, holding her head. "How did you even get in here?"
<Vyssa> <Red_Fox> "Yeah. I missed too much, so I have to catch up."
<Dias> I used the door. 6He scratches the back of his head as he climbs out of her bed. He pulls Angela's underwear off that he's wearing and begins looking around for his clothes
<Dias> I assume atleast.
<Angela> "...Why were you wearing that?"
<Dias> I'm assuming because I needed something to wear to bed?
<Marcus`> Missed too much? They don't allow training at Janus?
* Dias stands there in all his naked glory, looking at Angela.
* Angela blushes, realises what she's in, and grabs the sheets, covering herself.
* Angela looks down, then down more, then away, blushing.
<Vyssa> "I didn't keep up as much as I could have."
<Vyssa> <Red Fox> *says that*
<Angela> "G-Get dressed and get out Dias."
* Vyssa is now known as Red_Fox
<Dias> ....What? Is there something wrong Hot stalker girl? 6He looks down at his crotch.
<Dias> Ignore it, it'll go away in a bit.
* Angela rubs her head more.
<Marcus`> Ah. Busy staring at Angela all day?
<Dias> So...since this things at attention...6He looks over at Angela, wiggling his eyebrows.
<Angela> "N-No thanks..." *she keeps her eyes averted*
<Dias> Suit yourself, but you're going to bruise my ego if your going to keep not staring at me. 6He sniffles. 1"Now help my find my clothes.
* Angela looks around, "They aren't here."
<Dias> Well if that doesn't beat all...6He scratches his head.
* Marcus` pauses and waves his hand in front of Foxie's face. "Heelloooo. PAX to Foxie."
* Angela thinks a moment, then grins, "Ohhhhh..."
<Angela> "Elayne got her revenge on you I think."
<Dias> For...? 6He scratches his head.
<Angela> "The one night stand."
* Red_Fox sighs
<Red_Fox> "It's not like that, you know."
<Dias> Technically it'ld be two one night stands. I tend to bolt out after the chick goes to sleep incase she has a boyfriend/fiance and or husband.
<Dias> But why I would wind up naked in your room is beyond me...6He taps his jaw as he thinks deeply
<Angela> "Well I'd be careful, I think those Ridarium's can smell it."
<Angela> "Probably assumed I'd call security on you."
<Dias> How foolish. Stalkers don't call security.
<Marcus`> Oh I have no idea how it is. I'm just teasing you. Explain to me. How is it?
<Angela> "Hey! I'm only not because you're my friend."
<Dias> Friend? 6He looks at Angela confused now.
<Angela> "Yes. Friend."
<Dias> 6His morning wood flops out. 1"But I don't even know you."
<Red_Fox> "We're not really intimate."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam holds up a diagram showing their relationship.
<DeathStar> 6* It involves rape.
<Angela> "Yes you do."
* Marcus` slides his eyes then back to Adam. "You guys aren't a couple then?"
<Dias> Well as a hot stalker chick. 6He moves over to the door and opens it enough to stick his head out and look down the hallws
<Dias> NRP: ways
<Angela> "As more then that, actually, but you can't seem to figure it out."
* Dias pulls his head back in. 1"Did we have sex?"
<Angela> "I was Serena Cran..."
<Dias> And I was Santa Claus.
<Angela> "I'm serious."
<Dias> So am I. I dressed up as Santa Claus to collect stuff for myself. But really you shouldn't lie about that. Granny Sera doesn't like you.
<Angela> "I'm not lying, she's a new Sera. Phaeton raised her."
* Dias eyes Angela. 1"Ok, you've just been classified as crazy hot stalker chick."
<Dias> Wait no....Hot crazy stalker chick.
* Angela sighs, "Why do you think I'm such good friends with Darien?"
<Dias> Because Darien likes 'em young?"
* Angela blinks, pulling the sheet around her tighter. "Because he was my pilot."
<Dias> He had sex with you? What a stud.
* Marcus` sighs and walks out. "You know Adam. They say drinking in the morning is very evil."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam follows. "Then lets do it."
* Angela sighs and runs a hand through her hair. "Fine. Whatever. And the name is Angela now."
* Angela turns away.
* Red_Fox just glares at Adam as he leaves
<Dias> Woh there, let's not get that personal now. We've just barely met. Next thing you know you're going to start calling my pookie and wanting my baby.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam runs back, kisses Fox on the lips, then rejoins Marcus
<Marcus`> Careful. She's a ninja. She'll stab you something good.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Mmm
<Marcus`> Yet you like it rough, so you'd probably get a mad hard-on.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Stabbing is a sign of affection.
* Angela doesn't answer, she grips the sheets.
<Angela> "...There's a robe in the closet. Go."
<Marcus`> Then Ripple really has the hots for me, then.
<DeathStar> <Adam> He does.
<Dias> Nah, I'm cool. I'll catch ya later Hot crazy stalker chick. 6He opens the door and steps outside.
<Marcus`> ...I don't believe that. I'm just the weakest one.
<Marcus`> Easy pickings.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, I know.
* Angela sits on her bed and looks down at the floor, wiping some tears from her eyes.
<Marcus`> ...but I wont be after you train me...right??
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, you know it. Your first assignment is to steal a kiss from a girl.
* Dias moves down the hallway naked, heading towards his temporary room.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Without her permission.
<Marcus`> Steal a kiss? How is that training?
<DeathStar> <Adam> You'll see.
* Angela grabs a brus and works on her hair, looking across the room at a mirror.
<Marcus`> ...who?
<DeathStar> <Adam> ... Terra!
<DeathStar> <Adam> She'll be a good test subject. you can probably do it before she notices.
<Marcus`> ...my luck strife will jump from her mouth and stab me in the throat or something.
* Dias walks by Adam and Marcus, naked
* Marcus` ignores Dias completely.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Then you should be quick.
<Marcus`> ...this is going to ruin my friendship with her probably...
<DeathStar> <Adam> Probably.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pulls out pictures of Dias' penis, then begins to glue them to walls of the floor.
<Marcus`> I'm sure you would love that, wouldn't you.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Well, I am evil.
<DeathStar> <Adam> it's my catchphrase.
* Angela steps out of her room, dressed and groomed, she walks down the hall, bit of a distant look in her eyes.
<Marcus`> Then I wont do it. *he crosses his arms defiantly*
<DeathStar> <Adam> Alright. Enjoy your last kidney while you can.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks off.
<Marcus`> GAh damnit. FINE! *he sighs and begins moving towards the bar*
* Marcus` steps into the bar and sits down on a stool. "Hey Terra."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Hey. What's new?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks behind Angela, mimcing her distant look.
* Dias moves around a corner and down the hallway, heading towards his room, getting closer now
* Angela stops, turning around to face him, glaring.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam glares.
<Angela> "Go away."
<Marcus`> Ah just some training. What about you?
<DeathStar> <Adam> Go away.
* Angela turns and walks away.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam follows again.
* Marcus` suddenly leans over the bar and kisses Terra on the lips, and then jumps back and slides backwards towards the door, out of stabbing distance. "Sorry. It's part of my training!"
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *punches Adam in the gut before he slides*
* Dias moves into his room quickly without incident
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Don't think I've forgiven you, either."
* Marcus` grunts and doubles over, he glances up. "Forgiven me?"
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... I'm not exactly pleased with either of you."
<Marcus`> Either of us? *he slowly looks around* Strife piss you off or something? *he straitens up*
* Angela stops wandering after a bit, "What do you want Adam?"
* Dias steps out moments later, fully dressed for success. Wearing a shirt with it's sleeves ripped off and a pair of blue jeans.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I'm enjoying your mood.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Training or not, you shouldn't do things like that."
<Marcus`> Well if I didn't then Adam wouldn't train me and I wouldn't be able to defend myself against Ripple...I guess he figured it would cause you to hate me.
<Marcus`> You don't hate me do you!?
<Angela> "Bastard."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "No, but can't you find someone else to train under?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam smiles. "Thank you."
<Angela> "You should die... for what you did to me."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam holds up his hands. "Go ahead."
* Angela turns, gun in hand, shaking.
<Marcus`> Chad and Dias tried. All Dias taught me was to be able to take a hit. And all Chad taught me was that he didn't care enough to actually teach me. Instead he just threw me into a sim and said have at it. So if Adam can actually train me...besides, a little kiss from me isn't as bad as me dying is it?
<DeathStar> <Adam> You shoot me in the gut, it's even more painful.
<Angela> "You deserve to die for what you did... you... it's all your fault..."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... there are other people, you know."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Yep. It's always my fault. 6He motions in the air. "I'm evil."
* Angela blinks, her words faltering as something crosses her mind, lowering her gun.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "And what do you really think Adam will teach you?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam smiles again and puts his hands on her shoulders. "Good for you."
* Angela looks up at him. "I-I...."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Yes?
<Marcus`> On earth? Everyone else is busy with their lives. At least Adam seems to be strong enough that he might be able to help. I dunno, wont hurt to find out.
<Angela> "I sound just like Zephyr..."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... are you really sure about that?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam does a little dance around Angela.
* Angela just stares forward, holstering her sidearm.
<Marcus`> Anything is better than death isn't it?
<Angela> "...This... is how she feels..."
* Dias claps his hands, hopping from side to side, eager for a new day.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands with his back against Angela's back.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Isn't it great to be human?
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... you remember when you first shot someone?"
* Marcus` pauses and glances down. "Yeah."
* Angela looks down.
<Angela> "Why... did you do it to me Adam...?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam looks ahead with his back against her's. "You wanted it."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Part of you always wants Serena Cran.
<DeathStar> NRP> , Serena Cran
<Angela> "...I wanted it...?"
* Marcus` glances up, "What about it?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam back flips over Angela, landing face to face. "Very much."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "What did that feel like again?"
<Marcus`> It felt horrible. But I had to do it in order to survive. Remember, I saved your life.
* Dias swings a giant net over his shoulder. 1"It's Vapaad hunting time."
* Angela stares at him. "I ummm... have to ask... what did you do in the brain washing... did you put it in me to want it...?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Nope.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... I guess I can't argue with you doing something like that to save your own then. It just seems..."
<Angela> "So I naturally..."
<DeathStar> <Adam> You just like sex, Angela. Nothing wrong with it. 6He leans in close, putting a hand to the side of his mouth. "Trying to hook Darien is a nice big catch."
* Marcus` holds up a hand to her. "I'm not learning this to kill people. I'm learning to protect myself. And those around me. People shouldn't have to suffer."
* Angela blushes fiercely, "I-I'm not..."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "He'll try to teach you to."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh? Well, I won't give you all of Darien's weaknesses then. 6He walks off humming.
<Marcus`> Then he wont succeed.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "I hope you're right."
* Dias glances around a corner, eyeing the hallways suspiciously for Vapaad activity
<Angela> "H-Hey... wait..."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns around. "Yeeees?"
* Marcus` stares at her. "Come'on Terra. Look at me. Do you remember just how bad I freaked out? I don't enjoy the killing part."
<Angela> "What do you mean... weaknesses?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam suddenly is right in front of Angela again, leaning in close. "All men have weaknesses you can exploit to make them want you."
<Angela> "Wh-What do you mean?"
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... yeah, I remember."
<DeathStar> <Adam> OH, I think you know. 6He rubs his fingers together eagerly. "A woman can make a man walk over fire for her if she knows how to do it."
<Angela> "Not really... I mean... Spade was pretty loyal, but I get the impression he was that way since the day I met him."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Yes, but Spade played you, not you playing him.
* Angela nods a little. "Yeah... he did..."
* Dias moves along the hallway, still hunting the ever elusive Vapaad
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands up, adjusting his red clothing. "But, you don't want Darien like that. So..." 6Adam walks off, humming.
<Angela> "Hey... come on..."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Just be careful, okay?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns around eerily again. "Yeeeees?"
* Marcus` smiles at Terra. "I'll do my best."
<Angela> "Tell me what you're talking about..." *she blushes deeply*
<DeathStar> <Adam> I can tell you how to get Darien to want you so bad, he'll have sex with you. 6He leans forward so he's eye level. "Do you want this precious information?"
<Angela> "I-I'm curious..."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Tell me you want Darien. Come on. Be honeeeeeest.
* Marcus` stands up. "Well. I'll see you around. I need to do some more training." he waves and steps out.
* Dias slides upto a guy. 1"You see any Vapaad thingies around here?"
* Angela blushes and looks down, "Well... I-I do want him... I even told him so..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods, reaching into a pocket. "Alright, here's what you gotta do to get Darien to make wild love to you."
<DeathStar> 6* The guy directs him to the Vapaad sector of the Ambassador area.
* Marcus` comes running up. "Adam! I've completed my first task!"
* Dias gives the guy a thumbs up and moves off in that direction
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pauses, turning slowly. "Really? Let me smell your breath."
* Angela blinks.
* Marcus` pauses and then breathes on him.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sniffs. "Well, good for you. Come along then to the training room." 6He grabs Marcus and walks off.
<Angela> "H-Hey... Adam!"
<Marcus`> Oh, HEY ANGIE! *he waves bye*
<Angela> "H-Hey Marcus..."
<DeathStar> 6* Angela is left alone.
* Angela sighs and walks down the hall in the other direction, her thoughts going back to her realisation about Zephyr.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks up to Fox, then turns to MArcus. "Now, because of Dias, you've learned how to take punches."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Now, we need to train your speed. Your job is to grab Fox's breasts, then dodge her attack. As soon as you matter dodging the attacks, you are ready for real techniques."
* Dias slides upto the door leading to the Vapaad sector. He eyes it like a great challenge
<DeathStar> *master
* Marcus` pauses and glances at Fox. "Oh god..." he whistles as he walks towards her.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Remember. You need speed!
* Marcus` slides up and grabs Fox's breasts and then tenses, ready to dodge.
* Dias eyes the Vapaad door before him and moves upto it, smacking his hand against the controls
* Dias waits for the door to open
<DeathStar> 6* Darien keeps sleeping in.
<Red_Fox> "..."
<Red_Fox> "Was there a reason for that?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Do it again!~
<Red_Fox> "... I see."
* Marcus` shrugs. "Training?" He grabs them again.
* Red_Fox kicks Marcus in the balls the moment he relaxes
<DeathStar> <Adam> Ooooooo.
* Marcus` urks and falls over.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Not speed.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Do it again. 6He eats a hotdog.
* Dias frowns then punches the controls
<Red_Fox> "Tell me again why you're still alive?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> No one will kill me.
<Angela> * THe door opens, a blue Vapaad face Dias.
<Red_Fox> "I wonder why that is?"
* Dias leaps up and swings his giant net over the Vapaad, catching it* HAH!
* Marcus` pulls himself up. "Because I need be trained!" he grabs her breasts again.
<Angela> Kaltar> "...Hello there Human Creature!"
<Red_Fox> "... try learning not to be stupid first."
<Angela> * The Vapaad doesn't seem phased by the net.
* Red_Fox kicks Marcus again
* Dias plants his feet and begins pulling Kalta backwards, using the net. 1"I finally caught me one an elusive Vapaad."
* Marcus` goes to jump back, but she still clips him and he falls over. "Not...stupid..."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Better.
<DeathStar> <Adam> AgAAAIN
<Angela> * Kaltar doesn't move, she starts prodding Dias with some feelers, "...This specimen seems to have worked out use of tools..."
* Marcus` pulls himself up again and has a grim look on his face. "I...am not stupid." He touches her breasts again.
* Red_Fox leaps away from Marcus, and kicks Adam instead this time
<DeathStar> 6* Adam dodges by rolling.
* Marcus` pauses and watches.
<Dias> GAH! 6He slaps the feeler. 1"Not on the first date buddy!"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam flips to his feet, then grabs Fox's breasts.
* Red_Fox kicks Adam in the balls as he does
<DeathStar> 6* Adam jumps over the kick.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam lands behind Fox.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I like you.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam smiles.
* Marcus` pulls out a datapad and begins taking notes.
* Red_Fox spins, kicking at Adam's head
<Angela> * Kaltar prods one in a place Dias normally doesn't put things.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam bends backwards, flailing his arms.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Ba--balance! CAn't balance in body
* Red_Fox follows up with a low kick, hoping to take him down
<DeathStar> 6* Adam falls before it hits him, rolling away.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands and bows. "Do you wish to be my disciple, too?"
* Dias blinks then suddenly grabs the prod. 1"BAD VAPAAD!"
<Red_Fox> "No, I just want to hurt you."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sighs sadly. "How barbaric."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Alright, hit me.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam holds up his arms.
<Red_Fox> "Says the man who keeps telling someone to grab my breasts."
<Angela> * Another feeler pokes into Dias' ear.
* Marcus` tilts his head.
<Marcus`> We're training my speed!
* Dias grabs the other feeler with his other hand, dropping the net
<Angela> Kaltar> "...This one does not run screaming like the others... interesting..."
* Red_Fox launches a punch at Adam's head... then kicks at his leg
<DeathStar> 6* Adam is hit in the punchm then hit in the leg. He falls to a kneeling position, then smiles. "AGAIN!"
<Angela> * A third feeler pokes Dias in the leg.
* Red_Fox kicks Adam in the face.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam is hit in the face, bones crunching. "AGAIN!"
* Dias lifts his other leg and stomps down on it, pinning it to the floor.
<Marcus`> ....Fox.
<Red_Fox> "Yes?"
<Marcus`> Stop.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam never bleeds, waiting patiently for Fox to continue to assault him.
<Angela> * Four more feelers start poking Dias. "...Yes... interesting indeed... may I scan you?..."
* Dias growls and bites on one of the feelers as he let's his hands go on the two he's holding and begins grabbing onto other ones that poke him.
<Red_Fox> "... you expect me to stop, just because you say so, after grabbing my breasts?"
* Marcus` pulls up both of his arms, making grabbing motions. "I am your opponent."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands and steps to the side.
<Red_Fox> "... fine, but I'm not doing it for you."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam grabs his broken nose, then shifts it back into position with a pop,'
<Angela> Kaltar> "...What is your name...?"
* Dias gnaws on one of the feelers as he looks at Kaltar, he mumbles something out, hard to hear with a feeler in his mouth
* Marcus` slides forward and gets within range of the breast grabbing.
<Red_Fox> "Don't even think of it."
<DeathStar> <Adam> You can do it, Marcus!
<Red_Fox> "And you, don't encourage him."
<Marcus`> Stop me. *he says slowly, wiggling his fingers*
<Red_Fox> "... you're serious?"
<Marcus`> I need to train my speed. If this is the way my master says to do so. Then I must accept it.
<Angela> Kaltar> "...Noted, you are now Mr. Grumblemumblegrr."
<Red_Fox> "Why the hell are you training under him?"
* Dias spits the feeler out and hops back, letting the other two feelers go. 1"No, it's Dias.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Use her talking to your advantage!
<Marcus`> Gotta learn to survive against Ripple. *he says, lowering his hands*
<Red_Fox> "That wasn't what I meant."
<Angela> Kaltar> "...I see, filed under Mr. Dias now... may I probe your mind...?"
<Dias> Probe my....huh?!
<Marcus`> He's the only one that seems to care. *he says with a shrug*
<Angela> Kaltar> "...Read your mind..."
<Dias> Why would you want to do that?
<Angela> Kaltar> "...To learn..."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam watches the two.
<Dias> To...learn.
<Red_Fox> "How many people have you asked?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam makes dramatic wind sounds.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam then pulls out a boombox with epic battle music.
<Marcus`> Everyone on earth that were skilled enough to help me and had the time.
* Marcus` scratches his nose and glances up, making an odd face.
<Red_Fox> "That must've taken a while."
<Marcus`> Yep. *he continues making that odd face, looking up*
* Dias eyes the blue Vapaad not responding. 1"I think I broke it."
<Marcus`> ...so why is there a stain on the ceiling?
* Red_Fox glances up... then punches Marcus in the gut the moment he moves any closer
* Marcus` just stands there looking up, unless she punches him, then he would fall over in pain.
<Red_Fox> "... huh."
* Dias reaches over very slowly and pokes the Vapaad
<Red_Fox> "I never noticed that stain before."
<Marcus`> Is it...blood?
<DeathStar> 6* Adam dances back and forth
<Red_Fox> "Looks like it. Someone got busy."
<Marcus`> ...well it does kinda have a white tint too it...
<Angela> * The Vapaad makes a loud noise.
* Dias blinks, staring at the Vapaad.
<Angela> Vapaad> "...MY WHAT AN INTERESTING... mind you have..."
<Dias> I...I don't remember giving you permission. 6He looks at it insulted.
<Red_Fox> "... I'm suddenly not sure I want to know."
<Angela> Vapaad> "...I simply did a surface scan, which is little more then a handshake... I dare not go further... you firighten me..."
* Marcus` nods and grabs her breasts. "You're so cute sometimes, Foxie."
* Red_Fox punches Marcus this time
<Red_Fox> "I wondered when you were going to try that."
* Marcus` shifts his body, her fist sliding along his chest.
<Marcus`> Well it was so obvious.
<Red_Fox> "Well, yes. Did you really expect it to work?"
<Dias> I firighten you? What's firighten?
* Marcus` slides his left arm to grab her breast. "I'm clearly touching your breasts and you're not hitting me."
* Red_Fox kicks out at Marcus as he does
<Angela> Vapaad> "...What is your obsession with... Ice Cream, Human Women with very little coverings... and a chicken pot pie...?"
<Red_Fox> "This is the lamest thing I've ever seen. Even Dias doesn't stoop this far."
<Dias> Mmmm....chicken pot pie. 6He starts drooling.
<Angela> Vapaad> "...I see... yes... noted..."
* Marcus` shifts, jumping over her kick but gets tripped and slams into the ground, he jumps back up. "I could care less about touching your boobs Foxie. I just need to train."
<Red_Fox> "Then stop trying to touch my breasts and train."
<Marcus`> I AM TRAINING! *he touches them again*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sips milk.
<Dias> 6Breast Milk perhaps?
* Red_Fox punches Marcus in the face as he does. "This is the most pathetic 'training' I've ever seen."
<Red_Fox> "Do you really want to train? Properly?"
* Marcus` shifts backward, the punch snibbing his nose. He makes a face and rubs his nose. "Give it time. I can feel myself getting faster!"
* Marcus` tilts his head. "And you would train me?"
* Dias turns around slowly, and starts walking away from Vapaad. 1"Mmmmm....food."
<Red_Fox> "Yes."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Hah. You couldn't even beat me, Foxie.
<Angela> * THe Vapaad flees into her chambers.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Marcus! Watch the fruit of your training in action. Fox, attack me!
<Marcus`> You beat Adam and i'll train under you no problem.
* Marcus` nods and steps back.
<Red_Fox> "... You shouldn't say things like that with a broken nose."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Bring it on, girly.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam waves his hands, slapping his ass.
* Red_Fox rushes at Adam, moving to punch at his head, then jumps right over, kicking at the back of his neck
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns and uses a breast grabbing motion to grab her foot. He shoves her back.
* Marcus` again, has a datapad out, taking notes.
* Red_Fox spins, axe-kicking at Adam with her other foot, before flying back, landing on her feet
<DeathStar> 6* Adam holds up his arm for it to hit him.
<DeathStar> <Adam> You're full of delicious rage.
<Red_Fox> "Oh, you can taste it, can you?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Is this how you felt when you tried to murder Venerator?
<DeathStar> <Adam> Boiling over. Not thinking. Just acting.
* Dias has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> <Adam> You clearly have no problems hitting a man who won't attack back.
* Red_Fox darts forward again, moving to one side at the last minute to avoid blows, punching at Adam. "You were the one who said to attack."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam breast grabs her first again.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam doesn't let go.
* Red_Fox punches Adam in the nose, then
<DeathStar> <Adam> I'm referring to earlier. You did break my nose. 6* He grabs her other hand now.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Note, MArcus, I could start crushing her hands and pushing forward, making her bend back.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Limiting her ability to kick.
* Red_Fox kicks upwards before he can
<DeathStar> 6* Adam is hit, calmly letting go. He shakes his head. "But we're not here to hurt."
<Red_Fox> "We're not?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Have I struck you yet?
<Red_Fox> "You seem to be under the impression that telling a 'student' to do it for you is any better."
* Marcus` nods, writing it down.
<DeathStar> <Adam> He never struck you. Unless a grope hurts your poor boobies.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam makes wiggling hands motions in the air. "Are they sensitive?"
<Red_Fox> "That's not the point."
<DeathStar> <Adam> But it is.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam drops his hands, yawning.
<Red_Fox> "There are other ways to hurt than simply physically striking at someone."
* Angela stands outside Darien's door, she knocks gently.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam circles Fox. "But that's all you know how to do."
<DeathStar> 6* A moment pauses and DArien opens it, his hair wild and he wears pajamas. "Yes?"
<Red_Fox> "Maybe it's just what I prefer to do."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns his back to Fox, completely open to attack. "How utterly delightfully evil."
* Angela smiles softly, "I ummm... needed to talk to someone..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Right. Come on in. 6He walks back in and fumbles for coffee.
<Red_Fox> "... really? That's the worst evil you can think of?"
<Red_Fox> "... pathetic."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stretches and yawns. "So, Marcus, you saw how your hands motions can be used to fight?"
* Marcus` nods. "Yes, perfect to grab oncoming blows...but what if they blow is too strong for me?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> It'll lessen the impact, but it will knock you back.
<Red_Fox> "Don't get hit."
* Angela steps in and looks around curiously.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Now, we need to find bigger boobs for you to train on. Her's is too small.
* Megumi is now known as Kit
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pulls out a datapad, exmaining every woman on the station.
* Marcus` crosses his arms and waits.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam puts an arm around MArcus and walks out with him. "Let the training continue."
<DeathStar> 6* The room is neat, organized, with lots of swords laying around. Darien gets his coffee, pouring into a cup.
* Angela giggles a little to herself as she sits.
* Marcus` pulls his arms behind his head as he goes.
* Red_Fox has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits on the bed, sipping his coffee. "So, what happened?"
<Angela> "I saw Adam again..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Do you want me to airlock him?
<Angela> "No... actually... kinda had an epiphany..."
<Angela> "I was yelling, saying I wanted him to die, saying how he did so many things to me..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... From Adam?
* Angela nods
<Angela> "...I realised I sounded just like Zephyr."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits there, modeling for Xanatos. "I do not see why you want to do this."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Like Zephyr?
* Red_Fox has joined #TAW
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Red_Fox
<Angela> "Whenever she talked at me..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ah.
* Angela sighs, "I've been a real bitch in my life..."
* Marcus` is now known as Xanatos
<DeathStar> <Darien> Most people are bitches.
* Xanatos glances up. "I just need the practice painting portraits is all.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Very well. 6She doesn't budge.
* Xanatos whistles as he does so, pausing every so often to make sure the details are right. "Soo. I can't believe you're actually doing this. I'm impressed."
* Angela sighs, "Yeah but most people shouldn't be..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is for art.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Shouldn't. But the world isn't perfect. None of us are perfect.
<Xanatos> Very true. *he pauses and then presents it to her* Did I miss any details?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances it over.
* Angela nods, "I should have been better though."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It seems accurate.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Maybe so.
* Xanatos eyes it and then glances at her. "Wait a minute. I can't believe I missed the freckle on your left breast."
<Angela> "I just... I realised, looking at Adam... that I didn't deserve to judge him for what he did... I was no better then him..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis raises a brow, then glances down at herself.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Whoa, whoa, Adam is evil.
* Angela looks up, confused.
<DeathStar> <Darien> He revels in his acts. You don't.
<Angela> "Yeah..."
<Angela> "Yeah that's true."
<DeathStar> <Darien> He makes jokes about his acts. you don't.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... I see.... 6She shifts, pulling her shirt on tighter.
* Xanatos adjust it and then presents his final product. "It ok?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. It is very good work.
* Xanatos smiles. "Thank you." He sets it off to the side to let it dry and then bows slightly. "Thank you for modeling for me."
<Angela> "I just... I felt this anger, this pure desire to hurt him... to make him pay..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am glad it makes you happy.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yeah, he has that effect on people.
<Angela> "Does Zephyr really feel like this with me...?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't know.
* Xanatos nods and pulls his hair out of the ponytail it was in. "Well I am very happy right now."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am glad.
* Angela pulls her hair back over her shoulder, looking at him. "Some things you just can't ever fix huh?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Look at Wind. The more he tries to fix, the more pain he brings.
* Xanatos smiles. "You know what else would make me happy?" He pulls the painting apron off.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... What?
<Xanatos> If we could do something...quiet. You enjoy the quiet, right?
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sits down in Terra's bar.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ... Yes.
<DeathStar> 6* He grabs her menu, eyeing it.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "You still owe me money."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Marcus paid you.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "For the whiskey. Not for the previous drinks."
<DeathStar> <Adam> You don't have scary little crazy girl to throw me out today!
<Xanatos> Since you let me paint you. I'll do something quiet with you. Would you like to meditate or take a nice walk around the station or stare up into space.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I think I would like to sleep.
<Angela> "Maybe I should just stop trying."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "I don't need her to."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Maybe.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sighs and drops down a 100 gil.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Better."
<DeathStar> <Adam> I want.... the...children's chicken fingers!
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... well, sure." *gives Adam a strange look, then gets some*
<Xanatos> Oh. *he pauses and glances up* I assume you would be uncomfortable with me doing that activity with you, then?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If you wish to sleep as well, you may do so.
* Xanatos points to the bed. "Together?"
<Angela> "Darien..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You can sleep on the floor, if you wish
<DeathStar> <Darien> What?
* Xanatos sighs and slouches. "But the floor hurts my back."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam eyes them. 6"These aren't real children's fingers."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Did you miss the word 'chicken'?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> I thought they were just skrawny fingers.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lays down on the bed, closing her eyes.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Too bad."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam munches on them. "Can I get some koolaid?"
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Yeah." *hands some over*
* Xanatos sits down on the edge of the bed and brushes the hair out of her eyes. He kisses her on the cheek. "Goodnight."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam eats the chicken fingers and koolaid with glee.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is morning.
<Angela> "I... I want you to be careful... alright...?"
* Xanatos pauses. "Wait."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'll be as careful as the circumstances allow.
<Xanatos> It is? Then why are you going to sleep?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Because this body requires rest. 6She doesn't add 'duh'. she's Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* But it's there.
<DeathStar> 6* Duh.
<Xanatos> ...then. Rest well. I should probably get to work. *he stands and moves towards the door*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods, and goes to sleep pretty fast.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam spins around on one of Terra's stools.
* Xanatos steps out and moves down the hall.
* Xanatos is now known as Marcus`
* Retrieving #taw modes...
* Marcus` comes running into the bar and slams the door behind him, leaning against it, panting, cuts all over his face.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Hi, Marcy! 6He offers Marcus a chicken finger.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... Marcy?"
* Marcus` sits down and begins eating the chicken finger. "Marcy?" he says through chewing."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam shrugs.
* Angela sits back and sighs, looking at him, "It's kinda funny, how we wound up..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh? How's it funny?
<Marcus`> Oh hey this is good. *he grabs another from Adam*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam lets him.
<Angela> "When we first me, or rather, Darien Starr and Serena Cran met... they were enemies."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Where we? I suppose, in a way.
* Marcus` nibbles lightly and nods. "So I think i've got speed down. I just outrun a mob of angry ladies."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Not bad.
<DeathStar> <Adam> He's my disciple. 6He says proudly to Terra.
<Marcus`> One of em got my face pretty good though. *he motions to the claw marks*
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Trying to make Dias the Second?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> The second what?
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "It means a second Dias."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, psch. Dias is SO not cool.
<Marcus`> Yeah really. He just wants sex.
<Angela> "Advesaries, anyways... you were trying to take down my fiance. And now... hell, I think you're the closest friend I have besides Scarlet."
<DeathStar> <Darien> We need to get you better friends if I'm the closest one you got.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "You're starting to act like him."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Take that back!
* Marcus` pauses and glances at Adam.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... why should I?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands up, leaning until his nose touches Terra's nose.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I see crow's feet.
* Angela blushes, "Good luck, the popularity contest seems to be in favor of the Faux."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Really."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Yeah. Try some make up.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wow. Clearly the universe is going to hell.
* Marcus` stares.
<Angela> "Can we hit the reset button yet?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ha ha. We gotta live with what we got.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Coming from someone else, I might be worried."
* Angela sighs and smiles, "At least I can have a kid..."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Okay. Don't take my advice for it. Ha ha ha ha ha.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sits back down.
<Angela> "Just need to find a father that's worth a damn..."
<DeathStar> <Adam> *mumbles* old cow.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, that's more difficult.
<Marcus`> Oookay. First off. I'm nothing like Dias.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "That's not what it sounds like."
<DeathStar> <Adam> That's not what it sounds like. 6He says in a mocking tone.
<Marcus`> Oh? And what does it sound like exactly?
<Angela> "Yeah, forgot that catch."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Good luck with that.
* Angela smiles softly, "If only some guys would stick around..."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Like you're acting like Dias, obviously."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Moooooo
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, you can still try Xanatos. I doubt Erevis will give him a kid.
<Marcus`> ...that makes no sense at all. HOW does Dias act?
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *sighs* "Like an immature, perverted idiot."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam has his finger rip out of a chicken finger. "I got a man in meeeee!"
<Marcus`> I'm perverted? How am I perverted? Did I comment on how amazing your breasts look to today? No I don't think I did.
* Angela smiles, "Maybe..."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "No, just... how did you piss them all off, anyway?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien finishes his coffee.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I love metal man!
<Marcus`> Training.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam waves the chicken finger. "Oh, I feel so safe."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... training?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam wiggles his finger. ".... .... Stabby!"
<Marcus`> Yeah. I was working on my speed. Apparently some people don't seem to understand.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *glares at Adam, then looks back to Marcus* "What were you doing, exactly?"
* Marcus` just waves his hand. "Nothing major."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam devours the chicken finger, which was representing Terra.
* Angela loks at Darien, clearly holding somethingback, and then looks down at the floor.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "And this 'nothing major' really pissed everyone off? Huh."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pulls out a cookie and offers it to her
* Kit invites you to join #tawny
<Marcus`> Yep. *he grabs Adam's kool-aid and begins drinking it*
<DeathStar> <Adam> Hey!
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pouts.
* Marcus` pauses. "Evil people don't pout."
<Red_Fox> <Terra> *shrugs*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam's face goes blank as he pulls out a knife. "You're so right." 6He says eeerily.
* Marcus` slowly slides the kool-aid back.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam takes the koolaid, eyeing Marcus eerily, then pockets the knife and chugs the kool-aid.
* Marcus` glances back at Terra. "So since we've got the kissing part taken care of. When we going to do the eating together like normal people part?"
* Jackieness has left #taw
* Angela takes it and smiles.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien smiles back.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "... I guess. Sorry that I thought you were doing something perverted for training."
<Marcus`> Oh I probably am. But i'm just thinking about it as purely training. I'm not like Dias. I'm not doing it for fun. How about 7 tonight. That one fancy place. I'll even pay.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam eyes Terra, holding the knife.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "..." *sighs* "Alright."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam narrows his eyes.
<Red_Fox> <Terra> "Do you have a problem?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, no problem.
* Marcus` smiles. "Good. And look on the bright side. You'll at least get a good meal out of it."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Stabbies.
<DeathStar> -TIME SHIFT-
<DeathStar> 6* Marcus and Terra are almost at the restaurant
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the chess board, playing to keep Angela entertained.
* Marcus` looks rather handsome, wearing nice clothes and has his hair fixed nice. "Almost there." He notes.
* Red_Fox is now known as Terra
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is somewhere. Secret.
<Marcus`> *Xan is not there, sadly.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands in the training room, blindfolded, working on her sword trainnig.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Check. 6He slides a piece, leaving his king open.
* Marcus` glances at Terra. "I'm surprised you haven't ran off screaming and pulling your hair out."
* Angela hmmms and looks over the pieces.
<Terra> "Well, it's not a date, so I'm fine."
* Angela slides a piece and takes the opening. "Mate."
<Marcus`> It...it's not? *he pauses and glances at Terra, then ahead, then at Terra again*
* Kit has left #taw
<DeathStar> 6* Adam suddenly walks on the other of Terra, in a tuxedo.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I love dinner.
* Dias has joined #taw
* Marcus` stops and eyes Adam. "You're not invited."
<DeathStar> <Adam> I-I'm not.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stares in shock.
<Marcus`> You didn't even ask!
<DeathStar> <Adam> I'm EVIL!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares, then sighs. He knocks his king over. "You win."
<Terra> "You're the opposite of invited."
<DeathStar> <Adam> ... 6He sighs and walks off sadly. He spots a six year old and moves to talk with her.
* Marcus` pauses and looks from Terra to Adam. "We can't let him talk to that six year old..."
<Terra> "You're right. There's no telling how much he'd corrupt her."
<Marcus`> Adam!
<DeathStar> 6* Adam glances around.
<DeathStar> <Adam> What?
<Marcus`> Be nice for a change and you can eat with us.
* Angela smiles and grins. "So... another game?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> But---
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, no thank you.
<Marcus`> You saying you don't want food? Free food at that?
* Terra pauses, then remembers that Marcus is paying
<DeathStar> <Adam> But---it's a date.
<Terra> "No, it's not."
<Angela> "Awww... so what would you like to do?"
<Marcus`> Apparently it's not. *he says in a sigh* Though I clearly said Date like 40 times.
<DeathStar> <Darien> i don't know.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I wouldn't want to cockblock.
<Marcus`> Oh bullshit. You've done it like 20 times already.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stares.
<Terra> "Why now, suddenly?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns his back to them, then offers to show the girl a cool place to play.
* Marcus` frowns and pulls out three lolipops. "And here I was going to give each of us a lolipop too."
<DeathStar> <Adam> .... ....
<Angela> "I'd offer a movie, but I didn't bring any."
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's too bad. 6He pats her on the head.
<Marcus`> And I was even going to treat us all to some ice-cream too...
<Marcus`> Of well. I guess Adam is too evil for ice cream and lolipops.
<Terra> "Looks like it."
<DeathStar> <Adam> ... ..... 6He takes Terra's lollipop and gives it to the six year old, then takes his own, sticking it in his mouth. "Lead the way>"
* Marcus` walks towards the restuarant now.
* Angela grins at him. "How about a walk around the station?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Too much energy. Alright.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands up.
* Marcus` glances between the two of them. "So this isn't a date?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Looks like it to me.
<Marcus`> See. I thought it was..
<Terra> "..."
* Angela practically leaps up to her feet, bouncing a little.
<DeathStar> <Adam> She smells nice, too
<Angela> "Maybea little too much."
* Marcus` pauses and glances at Terra. "That's you? You put perfume on?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs like an old man and opens the door, stepping into the hallway.
<Terra> "Why would I do that? This..." *sighs* "Even if I say it's not, you'll still say this is a date anyway."
<Marcus`> I wouldn't do that. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on.
* Dias has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Dias has joined #taw
* Marcus` steps in and is led to their place to sit.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sits between Marcus and Terra.
* Dias hops from side to side, wearing his typical sparring clothes, sleeveless shirt and dark blue jeans
* Terra sits down, not looking at Adam
* Angela hops out with him, smiling.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks along at a steady pace
* Marcus` looks across the table at Terra, then glances at Adam to hsi right. "Well I can tell this is going to be a bucket of fun."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis trains in the corner, her eyes blindfolded; she doesn't seem to notice Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sucks his lollipop loudly.
* Dias punches the air, then grabs at an invisible target, he thrusts his knees up at it.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina walks in, wearing some flexible clothing that can't be easily grabbed.
<Terra> "Yeah.."
* Marcus` props his hand up on his chin. "Well if you're going to declare that this isn't a date. I'm not so sure I should pay now."
* Dias then pivots around, swinging his elbow towards where he opponent's backside would be.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina watches him as he beats up the air. She purposely ignores Erevis.
* Angela walks along with him. "Jeezus... I never realised just how much energy I have... been training pretty hard at home."
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's good. Your skrawny body needs muscle.
* Dias lifts his right knee up and pivots around, he stomps it down and throws another elbow forward, crouching slightly as he leans into it
<Terra> "It means that much to you?"
<Marcus`> Why should I pay for a meal when it's not really a date?
<DeathStar> 6* Adam crunches on his lollipop.
* Dias lowers his arms and looks over at Kat. 1"KAT!" He waves
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina waves. "Hey you."
* Angela sticks her tounge out at him.
<DeathStar> <Darien> How childish.
<Terra> "If you weren't doing such creepy training, maybe it would be."
<Dias> I wore my finest. 6He points his thumbs at himself.
<Angela> "Well you're the one who's been calling me a kid."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina laughs a little.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, fine. What a mature young lady.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina steps over to the ring, stretching
* Dias smiles to himself proudly. He then begins hopping from side to side. 1"I'll be sure to take it easy on you."
* Marcus` drops his mouth open. "I...it's just for training though..."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, that's very gentlemenly of you
<DeathStar> 6* Adam eats the complimentary bread.
* Marcus` suddenly points at Adam. "This is all your fault!"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pauses. He calmly stands.
* Marcus` eyes Adam.
<Dias> Hey, anything for the ladies. 6He clicks at her.
* Terra also eyes Adam
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks away with the bread in his mouth
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina rolls her eyes, then holds up her hands for combat.
* Marcus` slowly looks to Terra. "What just happened?"
* Angela giggles and smiles, calming down and walking alongside him.
<Terra> "Adam just left."
<Marcus`> ...well duh. But why?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien whistles a tune as he walks along.
* Dias slides into his stance, his arms held upwards and his hands held open facing towards her. He hops from one foot to the other.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina suddenly shifts, forming one of John's self-created styles.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina's left hand palm faces up, and her right hand palm faces down, with her left hand higher than her right hand
<Terra> "Because it's his fault you're doing creepy training."
<DeathStar> <Darien> So tell me something, Angie.
<Marcus`> ...I have a feeling i'm going to suffer for this. *he sighs*
<Dias> I remember that one...I think. 6He begins hopping towards her, his feet constantly moving, and his weight shifting from one leg to the other briefly.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina shifts, her weight on her front left foot.
* Dias suddenly kicks off, he leans forward, throwing his left hand up to guard his face while he swings his right elbow forward towards her left hand.
<Angela> "Hmmm?"
<Terra> "Maybe."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina steps back, her weight on her right foot, and her right hand shifts to let the elbow hit her palm. She tightens her grip, then jabs with her left hand for his shoulder area, aiming to cripple his mobility.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Did you ever steal Chad's key?
* Angela whistles innocently.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ohhhh?
<Marcus`> You know. You were there whenever I was forced to marry Billy. Why didn't you stop it from happening?
* Dias flexes his arm and moves to overpower her grip and grab her arm that's coming in.
* Angela puts a key in his hand. "Hey, if I'm going to head a shady organisation, I have to put it to use for the greater good, right?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien studies the key.
<Angela> "It's an exact copy."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wonderful.
<Terra> "What was I supposed to do?"
<Marcus`> ...stop them?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina moves even faster, trying to hit him first.
<Terra> "How?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam can be seen ahead with a six year old on his shoulders, holding his head as he runs around in circles. He's also wearing a tuxedo. Darien stares.
* Dias grabs her arm but the jab still hits it's target, he grimaces as it hits
<Marcus`> ...punch them in the face until they stop moving?
<Terra> "... maybe."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina suddenly shifts, using her shoulder to try to ram into Dias' stomach, then grab him with a free hand to flip him over her.
* Marcus` eats his dinner a bit quietly now.
<Angela> "I'd like a favor though..."
* Kit has joined #taw
<DeathStar> 6* Darien keeps staring at the eerie sight of Adam with a six year old girl, then glances at Angela.
<Terra> "... sorry."
* Dias flips over and slams onto his back with a grunt
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina tries to step away.
<Marcus`> Ah. It's all water under the bridge I guess. *
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes?
* Dias rolls onto his stomach and pushes himself up. He rotates his right shoulder. 1"You're fast..."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina smiles. "Faster than John."
<Terra> "Yeah, I guess."
<Dias> You McCormicks are something, that's for sure. 6He begins to smile, obviously enjoying himself.
<Angela> "If this draws into a heavy fight, I want my rune."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina shifts her stance, then suddenly punches rapidly for Dias. "Thousand punches!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Done.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam runs past Darien and Angela with the six year old girl.
* Marcus` tilts his head. "Do you think i'll actually be able to defend myself against Ripple?"
* Dias throws his hands up as he moves to block as many incoming ones as possible
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina suddenly stops the attack before all of the punches are done, then leaps up, spin kicking at his head.
* Kit is now known as Megumi
<Terra> "We beat Xevil, so... yeah."
* Dias is nailed and he goes tumbling to the side.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina lands, balancing eleagantly, then smiles at Dias. "Sorry, I improvised."
<Marcus`> Well I only survived that because of Zephyr...and she's not helping me this time.
* Dias pushes himself up, stumbling slighty as he shakes his head clear. 1"That was awesome. I never knew you could do that with that attack!"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> It's called a feint. John was always so forward, because he was strong to be that. Someone like me has to improvise and trick their opponent.
<DeathStar> *enough
<DeathStar> <Katrina> When facing a physically stronger opponent, don't let them know what you're going to do.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... Adam likes kids? 6He asks Angela.
<Dias> Feint...Gotya. 6He darts in towards him, no longer using his Muay Thai stance. 1"Rising Spinning Moon!" 6He flips backwards, kicking his leg out towards Kat, this time spinning a full 180 degrees and throwing a punch towards Kat's thigh.
<Dias> NRP: her
<Terra> "But Ripple isn't Xevil."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina goes to dodge the leg with her faster speed, but is hit by the punch, falling backwards.
<Marcus`> Yeah. Xevil couldn't teleport.
<Marcus`> So I guess that makes him more dangerous.
<Megumi> "So use a lure."
* Dias lands in a crouch and he spins around, quickly adopting his Muay Thai stance.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina flips to her feet.
<Megumi> "Even the most elusive fish can be hooked when baited."
<Dias> How was that?! 6He beams
<Terra> "... you're kidding, right?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> That was great.
<Marcus`> Why would I kid about something that involves risking my life?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina dashes across the mat, then leaps up over Dias.
* Dias moves in towards Kat again. He hops up throwing a knee towards her right side, his left hand darting in to punch her chest, his hand quickly going for a grab of her boob
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sails over Dias, having anticipated the attack it seems.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina lands behind Dias, then elbows behind her for his back.
* Angela looks at Darien and shrugs, "Creepy."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Agreed.
* Dias spins in the air and lands on feet, he throws his elbow into her's locking into it. He quickly throws a jab towards her mid back.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam and the six year press their faces against the restuarant window, eyeing Terra and Marcus. They point and laugh
* Marcus` glances over. "He acts like such a kid sometimes."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina suddenly flips again as the hit connects, trying to flip over Dias while their elbows are locked, forcing him to bend awkwardly
* Megumi peers past Adam. "Having fun?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Yes.
<Terra> "Suddenly, Dias seems like a mature adult."
Session Close: Wed Aug 15 00:00:00 2007
Session Start: Wed Aug 15 00:00:00 2007
Session Ident: #taw
<Marcus`> Wow. That's pretty bad. *he says, glancing at Terram smirking*
<Megumi> "Okies."
* Megumi turns and walks off, doing absolutely nothing.
* Dias begins bending backwards, his gut exposed.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina uses her free elbow to twist, aiming for his gut.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stalks MEgumi with his six year old sidekick
<Marcus`> I dpm
* Dias moves his left knee and his right elbow up to try and block the incoming elbow
<Marcus`> NRP: Err.
<Marcus`> I don't get you. *he says after a moment*
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina suddenly twists again, getting their bodies tightly locked together so neither can really attack in their tangled mess. She tries to land on top of him.
* Megumi turns after her ears twitch and detect footsteps. Albeit she does it very slowly and without an ounce of energy expended toward a thing called effort.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stares down.
* Megumi turns away and slowly trudges off.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam follows.
* Dias slams into the ground locked up with Kat now ontop of him. 1"Well this is interesting."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina smiles. "Thank you."
<Terra> <Terra> "So, what exactly are you learning from him? Can he even teach anything useful?"
<Dias> But now what do you do?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina suddenly spreads her legs, then wraps them around Dias, squeezing hard.
* Megumi leaves the populace area and enters the corridors.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks along, whistling. His six year old eats a lollipop.
<Megumi> "Mister Evil. What do you do when you want to see someone and can't?"
<Dias> HURK! 6Dias blinks at the suprizing move he quickly flexes his muscles doign whatever he can to hold her from squeezing the air out of him.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Kidnap them.
* Marcus` watches her change the subject but doesn't press it. "Actually he showed me how his methods can be applied in a spar against Fox and I learned quiet a bit."
* Megumi seems to stop and ponder this, then starts walking again.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina keeps attmepting to win by crushing him.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks along still, adjusting his nifty tuxedo
<Terra> <Terra> "That can't be difficult."
<Marcus`> What can't be difficult?
* Megumi pauses again after a while.
<Terra> <Terra> "Applying methods against Fox."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stops.
<Megumi> "Mister Evil, what do you do if that person still doesn't like you?"
* Dias swings his legs up to wrap around her but misses. He eyes her then smiles and slams his left foot agaisnt the floor and twists his body violently to try and roll onto the side and slam her into the mat.
<Marcus`> Fox is pretty quick...and vicious...
<DeathStar> <Adam> Brainwash them!
<DeathStar> <Adam> or torture htem until they agree.
* Megumi starts walking again.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks along.
<Terra> <Terra> "She wasn't when I met her."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina urks.
<Terra> "I guess people improve."
* Megumi stops.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pauses.
<Megumi> "What if they still don't like you?'
<Marcus`> Must've. Of course Adam didn't have a problem fending her off.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Stab them.
* Megumi ...wanders down a staircase, and into the next corridor.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks along. Some people would think this is a trap, but Adam probably doesn't care.
* Dias begins shifting his weight, placing pressure against the leg he's ontop of, aiming to cut off circultation while he struggles to keep her from crushing his breath
* Megumi pauses again.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien buys Angela ice cream
<Megumi> "What if you don't want to stab them?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stops.
<Terra> "Obviously not that much, then."
* Angela enjoys ice cream, sugary sugary ice cream.
<DeathStar> <Adam> If brainwashing, torture, and stabbing doesn't work? ... kill 'em.
<Megumi> "Isn't that the point of stabbing?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> No, no, no. Stabbing a person is an art.
<Megumi> "I see."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina's leg grip weakens.
* Megumi starts walking again, heading for the next stairwell.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam follows.
* Marcus` shrugs. "I take it you don't like her?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, feel all better now, kiddo?
* Dias takes a quick breathe, he begins trying to get his right leg around her by swinging it up towards her.
<Dias> You should just give up now.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina lets go, and tries to roll away.
<Terra> "Not really."
* Megumi pauses before a strangely and suspiciously familiar door.
* Dias rolls away and hops up, taking quick breathes
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina stands, smiling a bit.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks along, whistling.
<Megumi> "So what if kidnapping, torture, stabbing and killing don't work?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Get a new friend.
<Marcus`> Really? Why not?
* Megumi knocks on the door, then turns and stares at Adam.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam gives the six year old more candy.
* Ariel opens the door, "...yes?"
* Megumi walks over and ...hugs Adam.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam freezes
<DeathStar> <Adam> Th-The power of a... ..aa.. hu-hug?!
<Dias> I gotta say, I've never been happier to have a girl straddle me before.
<Megumi> "You must have been deprived as a child. I suggest friendship."
* Angela smiles and hugs Darien tight.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hugs back.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam faints.
* Megumi waves to Ariel. "Hello, Miss Knight."
* Megumi ruthlessly allows Adam to hit the floor.
<DeathStar> 6* The six year old bounces.
<Terra> "She just... never seemed to have any guts before."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You should see my many talents then.
<Marcus`> Oh well I dunno about that. *he pauses* Well I'm really not all that brave. Do you not like me either?
<Dias> Do they invovle stripper poles? 6He begins circling her, his stance shifting back into his Muay Thai style
<Terra> "... you don't volunteer to help, then give up at the first sign of trouble."
* Ariel looks at the unconscious man outside her door, then to his assailant. "Hell, Megumi."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Lets say I'm more flexible than that.
<Marcus`> True. I just don't bother with the volunteering bit. *he smiles*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Now what?
* Megumi searches Adam for more candy, gives it all to the child and tells her to ship off.
<Angela> "You know.. jsut thought of something... I haven't really seen Mom since I got here..."
<DeathStar> 6* The six year old scurries away.
<Dias> Hoohoo...6He stares at her fondly for a moment, his guard completely dropping
<Terra> "Yeah, that's better than just giving up."
* Megumi steps over Adam's body. "Did you have plans for today, Miss Knight?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina rushes in, sliding under Dias, then while on the floor, wraps her arms around his legs, then swings her foot up to hit him in the back.
* Dias slams face first into the mat with a resounding thud
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ariel's probably lurking about somewhere.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina flips onto his back, grabbing his leg and yanking it back over his back.
<Ariel> "Plans? Well, I would normally scare the crew and command into not doing the things they shouldn't be doing behind my back, about now." *ponders*
<Dias> AIIIEEEE!
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You're not nearly flexible enough, Dias.
<Marcus`> So How's Strife?
* Dias growls and shoves his hands against the floor with enough force to rock him and Kat fully backwards so that he would land on her.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina grunts.
<Angela> "Shall we dare find out?"
<Terra> "Not so bad. I think he'd have stabbed Adam by now otherwise."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, I wouldn't want to disturb her.
<Terra> "Or maybe that's just me."
* Dias shifts himself to use her as a chair, even tho she's still holding on his leg awkwardly. 1"Kinda hard, you really work out your ass alot don't you?
<DeathStar> <KAtrina> I work every part of my body out.
* Megumi tilts her head to the side awkwardly.
<Marcus`> Prolly you. I'd venture a guess and say mostly it's all you, being as how you pretty much control your thoughts and body.
<Megumi> "Is that really a plan? You could do that at any time, right?"
<Dias> Ev...every part?! 6He blinks looking down at her, his guard once again down
<DeathStar> 6* Adam vanishes meanwhile.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina suddenly lets go of his leg, then twists, trying to knock him off of her, then spin kick him in the side.
* Dias tumbles through the air and hits the mat and into a roll
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina puts her hands on her hips. "I give you a 8 for rolling."
<Ariel> "I didn't say it was urgent."
* Angela has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
* Angela has joined #taw
<Megumi> "May I come, then?"
* Dias stands up, stumbling around. 1"I give you...An 11 on your ass."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> That's not even my best feature.
<Terra> "Probably, then."
<Dias> Ut, I never said what it was out of...It was 10.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Hah. Oh well. I guess you're not interested in it, then.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina bends over a little, litting him get a good view of her ass in her outfit.
<Dias> Best feature....Go on. 6He shakes himself straight as he focuses on her.
<Dias> Bu....6He blinks, staring again.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina dashes in suddenly, throwing a kick for his face.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien buys an Omega Cookie
* Marcus` finishes his meal and watches Terra quietly. "So this really isn't a date then?"
* Dias throws his elbow up to block the kick. He twists under it and grabs onto it, bring her knee down onto his shoulder to flip her over him.
<Ariel> "I... do not see why you'd want to. Surely you have more interesting things to do than inspect the station."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina flips, handspringing upon contact with the ground, flipping back up into the air and nimbly kicking out at the back of his head.
<Megumi> "N-not really..."
<Megumi> "I'm avoiding the ambassador, and he cannot get into the innerworkings, right? With nothing else to do, that sounds perfect, actually."
<Terra> "... it's going to look like one anyway."
<Marcus`> Yeah it probably will. You sure Strife will be fine with that?
<DeathStar> 6* Adam sits between Terra and Marcus again, eating dessert
* Dias moves his elbow to intercept and knocks the blow down where it hits rigth below the throat, he winces in pain as he stumbles back.
<Terra> "He's not complaining right now, anyway."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina grabs Dias' head and pulls his head into hers, trying to headbutt him, while driving her knee into his gut if able.
<Marcus`> Maybe he likes me. *he pauses and glances at Adam, wondering when he got there, then he looks back to Terra* It's not been half bad though, has it? This date.
* Dias looses his body as both attacks hit, his head snapping back and his body wrapping around her knee
<Ariel> "Well... if you insist. Prepare for some of the most boring hours of your life."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pushes Dias off.
* Megumi salutes. "U-Understood!"
* Angela sticks with Darien. "So... you won't help me track her down eh?"
* Dias begins to fall back and then plants his left foot. He coughs several times as he catches his breath.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Not I.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina steps back, looking tired.
<Dias> You think ahead so far...6He stands upright as he rubs his forehead furiously
* Angela pouts.
<Terra> "It's been okay."
<Marcus`> Do you like...chocolate? *he slides up a small box of chocolates, a smile on his face*
* Megumi afterward rubs the back of her head, one foot scratching at the other ankle
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I try.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien smirks.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam opens the box and takes some chocolates
<Dias> I tend to not think past my fist. 6He smiles an awkward smile.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> MAybe you should try it sometime.
* Marcus` sighs and reveals another box. "I would give this to you if you actually liked Chocolate." He says, keeping them from Adam.
<Dias> Hmm...6He pauses as he stares at Kat for awhile
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina smiles.
<Terra> "This is really going to give people the wrong idea, but.. yeah."
* Dias suddenly darts in, his right leg swinging low to kick the side of her left ankle, his hands held up defensively still
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina hops up.
<Marcus`> Who cares what they think. Live your own life. That's what I say. *he gives her the chocolate with a smile, making sure Adam can't get it*
* Dias throws a jab at her midsection as she moves up
* Ariel regards Megumi another moment, then shrugs, and starts off on her patrol of the station. Really, effectively wandering the station is a boring thing to be doing
<Angela> "Any idea where she is?"
* Terra takes the chocolates
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina is hit by the jab, so she swings at Dias' right cheek.
* Megumi follows along tactfully, not quite bothered by the idea. If she's bored she hides it well. Hey, wandering it beats sweeping it.
* Marcus` whistles and taps the table. "Good Ice Cream?" He asks Adam.
* Dias shifts his right elbow up to block and he steps in swinging his left elbow in for her stomach, his left leg stomping down to push off.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina is hit, hitting the mat hard as she falls.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Yes.
* Dias kicks off his foot and moves through the air towards her, his legs shifting so that his right knee will land on her mid-section
* Marcus` nods and sips his drink. "Well..."
<Ariel> "So what was that about knocking a man unconscious outside my door?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien finishes checking the datapad, then shows Angela.
<Megumi> "...Huh?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina grunts a bit, curling a bit.
<Terra> "Well?"
* Megumi stares blankly for a while, then it occurs. "O-oh! That was mister Evil. Adam. I didn't knock him out, I just gave him a hug to make up for his mother neglecting him."
<Ariel> "You should do that more often."
* Dias swings his left hand down to aim for Kat's throat, stopping an inch away
<Megumi> "Madame thinks so, too."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina suddenly begins to stand again.
<Marcus`> I guess this date is over. You don't have to remain here with us any longer. *he smiles at her*
* Angela smiles and hugs him again, kissing his cheek, "You're free of me for a little bit. See you soon."
* Dias stands up. 1"Like that?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Later.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina holds her side as she stands, facing him. "Yes."
<Dias> You...ok? 6He looks at, a look of concern on his face.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh, this is nothing. 6She waves her hands in dismissal.
* Dias pokes her side
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Hey!
<Terra> "Thanks."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina winces once.
* Terra stands and starts to leave
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pats Terra's ass.
* Dias winces himself. 1"Oooh, I didn't mean to...Let me get you to medbay."
* Terra mulekicks Adam
<DeathStar> 6* Adam goes flying over the table and lands on another person's table.
<Marcus`> ...I'd say give me a ring sometime but I most around so much and you're probably busy...
<Megumi> "What do you do for fun, Miss Knight?"
<DeathStar> 6* People turn to stare at Terra and Marcus.
<Terra> "... okay... maybe this wasn't the best place for that."
* Terra looks embarrassed, then quickly leaves
<Ariel> "Madame?"
<Dias> I'm still working on this restraint thing...6He scratches the back of his head, slightly nervous.
* Megumi peers around the halls. "Aside from harrass the station workers?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam lays in french soup.
* Megumi nods slowly. "Yeah, Madame Terra."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'm fine. 6She waves her hand again.
* Marcus` let's out a low whistle and pays for the meals and desert. Then apologizes for the trouble.
* Dias pokes her ribs again
* Ariel nods, "Well... I don't get as much time for fun, as you do."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina jabs his chest.
* Dias grabs her chest in response
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... ...
<Megumi> "Do I have a lot?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina grabs his balls and twists.
<Dias> These are nice...REEEEEK!!
<Ariel> "More than I do."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I thought these would be bigger. 6She says, sounding disappointed.
* Megumi ponders in silence a while, troubled.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam keeps laying in the soup.
<DeathStar> 6* He then stands up and walks out.
* Dias coughs. He reaches down, feeling around. 1"One....One....One.....Two, shew"
* Marcus` walks out with him. "I don't get you sometimes either."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina stares smugly.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Why? Soup drips off his face.
<Marcus`> You're nice to me, then you're evil toward me, then you're pissy at me. You've got a whole mess of emotions going on there that I rightly just don't get.
<Dias> ...So that would explain why my Hidden Bra Strap attack didn't work...
<Ariel> "Something on your mind?"
<DeathStar> <KAtrina> No bra.
<Dias> Nice.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Thanks.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I'm just evil.
<Megumi> "...N-not really."
<Marcus`> I guess. *he says with a shrug*
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina leans back a little, her chest even more evident.
<Ariel> "What is it?"
* Megumi places a palm on her forehead. "...I didn't have much time for fun until lately myself."
* Dias stares, getting lost in them.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pushes a finger against his forehead and tips him over.
* Dias swats the finger away as he stares.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sighs and heads for the shower room in the back.
* Dias blinks, eyeing Kat walk that way.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks along, then pauses, giving some chocolates to some kids who run by.
* Angela approaches Ariel, smiling.
<Ariel> "What did you do, before this?"
* Dias puts his hands behind his back and begins walking towards the shower room, whistling innocently as he moves closer
<Megumi> "I thought I mentioned before... I was marooned on Kilek..."
<Marcus`> ...i'm assuming being nice to children is all part of your evil master plan?
<DeathStar> <Adam> .... ... Yeah.
* Megumi stares at the ground. "There were a couple nice times, then, but the actual period where I've done almost nothing was after I was recovered." Her ears twitch and she silences her story before Angela is too close.
<Marcus`> I see. *he grows quiet*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam is just as quiet.
* Dias slowly peers into the shower room, checking to see if the coast is clear
<DeathStar> 6* the shower can be heard.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Well, time for techniques.
<Marcus`> Oh right. *he says, shaking his head* I almost forgot I had to train.
* Dias slowly creeps in, moving about the showers as he moves towards the running shower.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam slides his body into an ancient martial arts stance, raising his hands and shifting his feet.
<Marcus`> 6* Someone knocks on Erevis' door.
* Marcus` pauses and eyes the stance. "Should I mimic?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> I want you to learn this stance. So, walk around the station like this. 6He shifts, stepping forward, his left foot, which was in the front, sliding so his right foot is in the front, and his left hand, which was forward, shifts closer to him as the right hand shifts outward. Then he moves forward again, switching back to the original way
<DeathStar> <Adam> As soon as you can do that perfectly in your sleep, we'll continue. 6He pauses, then runs away.
* Marcus` pauses and then mimics the stance, moving forward along the hallway.
* Dias slowly peers his head into the running shower
* Marcus` is now known as Xanatos
<DeathStar> 6* The door opens and Erevis is in a robe, with her wet hair not really dried. "Yes?"
<DeathStar> 6* Steam fills the shower.
* Angela smiles to Ariel, "Hey Mom."
* Xanatos stands there. "Evening."
* Dias curses silently, he squints as he tries to see through it
<DeathStar> 6* Dias can see--someone in the steam.
* Megumi doubletakes, ears raising. "...Mom!?"
* Dias tries to shoo the steam away
<DeathStar> 6* A fist hits Dias in the nose from within the steam.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hello.
* Dias stumbles bakc, slamming into a back wall. 1"Son of a...."
* Angela blinks at Megumi. "Yes... she's my mother."
<Ariel> "G'evening..." *pauses* "Angela."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You perv.
<Xanatos> Just finished my shift. Wanted to stop by and see if you have ate yet.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No.
* Angela smiles at Ariel happily. "How are you? Your replies to my mails are always so short."
<Dias> I heard a noise, wanted to make sure everythings ok. 6He sniffs and tilts his head back. 1"Is it bleeding?"
<Xanatos> Would you like too?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'm not getting close enough to see.
* Angela hugs Ariel.
<Dias> Fine, I'll come there. 6He stands up, moving towards her.
* Megumi backs away a bit as if struck by an arrow.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I would not mind.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> W-What are you doing?
<Dias> Coming to you to look to see if my nose is bleeing or broken.
* Ariel returns the hug, "I'm not much of one for writing."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Hey, no! NO!
<Dias> What?! 6He stops. 1"I wanna make sure it's fine."
<Angela> "True... though you've always been one of few words... I missed you."
<DeathStar> <KAtrina> No closer! I'm warning you!
<Xanatos> I'll give you time to change then.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves to the closet to get clothes.
* Xanatos leans in the doorway, arms crossed.
<Dias> But...6He takes a step forward.
<DeathStar> 6* A foot flies out and hits Dias in the face.
* Dias head snaps back and he tilts over slamming into the floor.
<DeathStar> 6* KAtrina's head peers out of the steam.
* Megumi backs away further, biting the knuckle of her finger.
* Dias lies there motionless, his chest not moving.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... .. 6She checks for emotions.
<Dias> 6Currently blank.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh fuck me. 6She realizes she's naked with no comm so she slides over to Dias, checking for a pulse.
<Dias> 6There's something really really feint
<Ariel> "Angela, I'd like you to meet Megumi. Megumi, this is Angela..." *pauses* "What family name were you going by again?"
* Xanatos pauses and then steps back, so the door will close and Erevis can change in peace. "Sorry." he says as the door closes.
* Dias suddenly sits up. 1"Really?" 6He blinks as he looks at her in the eyes.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Wha--AAAH
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina falls back onto the tiles.
* Angela smiles, "I go by Bennet now."
* Dias looks over at her. 1"Hey you're naked....Wait, you're naked!" 6He smiles, taking a mental image.
* Angela holds out her hand to Megumi.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pauses, then twitches. "THOUSAND PUNCHES!" 6All are aimed for his face.
* Dias faces begins to get beaten in
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina doesn't let up, either.
* Megumi freezes, deer in headlights. "Zh-zhenmei!" Then realizes the question wasn't for her and drops into a bow at the waist. "S-sorry!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps out wearing the cat outfit Xanatos bought. "I am ready."
* Dias suddenly falls back over before anymore hits can connect
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pants.
* Xanatos pauses. "You...you're wearing that?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You bought it for me. Should I not wear it? 6There's a gleam in her eyes as she stares at him.
<Angela> "It's good to meet you Megumi Zhenmei."
<Xanatos> Well it's slightly revealing, I just wouldn't what you to feel uncomfortable if someone jeered at you.
* Dias just lies there, motionless.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It does not matter. 6She shakes her head, her ears bouncing.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina hmphs and finishes her shower, then gets dressed and walks out.
<Ariel> Siawase> *approves of the outfit*
* Xanatos shrugs. "Alright then. Terra's for dinner sound alright?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Very well. 6She hooks her arm around his own.
* Megumi shuffles away slightly and nods twice quickly. "P-pleasure to meet you..."
* Xanatos smiles at her and walks along the halls, moving towards the bar. "I was wondering something. Have you been around Adam since he came onto the PAX?"
<Ariel> "Is everything alright, Megumi?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Adam? No.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> is he not dead?
* Angela looks at Megumi and smiles, 'She seems shy around new people."
<Xanatos> Apparently not. And he's on this station. He seems to be protecting Marcus and Dias from a new enemy. *he rubs his cheek with his free hand* Is there really anyway to come back from the dead?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... I do not know.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis waves at Megumi and Ariel and Angela as they pass, her cat ears bouncing and tail swishing
<Xanatos> I'll just stick with my assumption that Wind has something to do with it. *he also waves at the three as they pass*
* Megumi stamps ...lightly, hands balled. "A-Am not!"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not see why he would do that.
* Ariel half stares at Erevis
<Xanatos> I really don't either. Of course I don't know what goes through his mind. You never know...
* Megumi is distracted for a moment, then stammers back into defending herself.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Hm.
* Angela stares at Erevis too, then looks back to Megumi. "I'm sorry then." She looks at the girl who at least appears to be the same age as she is. "Are you... a diplomat?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina storms past Xanatos, muttering about Dias and his horn dog ways.
<Terra> <Vyssa> *walks by, looking over at Erevis' outfit*
<Xanatos> Regardless. I feel uneasy. This all seems like the calm before the storm. *he tilts his head to watch her pass, shaking his head* Well. For the most part.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien passes XAnatos. "Nice kitty you got there."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina then storms past Angela, Erevis, and Ariel, still muttering about Dias.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> There are no storms in space.
* Megumi shakes her head quickly, holding her hands behind her. Her elf-like ears twitching as Katrina walks by. She mumbles, repeating the "Dias" thing, then shakes her head at Angela. "No."
<Xanatos> Told you that some jerks would jeer. *he says with a smile to Erevis* And yes, I know. It was just a figure of speech.
<Megumi> "I'm an ...honor guard, technically. But not really. And a barmaid now."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien apsses Megumi, Angela, and Ariel now
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Oh.
<Xanatos> *Marcus comes shifting by Xan and Erevis, still doing the stance walking.
* Xanatos nods. "Basically, everything seems calm and relaxing, which means something bad will probably happen soon..."
<Terra> <Vyssa> *follows Darien, pausing at Megumi and co.* "Ariel! Megumi!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis watches Marcus.
* Xanatos also watches Marcus.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam goes to pass, then turns and walks in another direction altogether before the two notice him
<Xanatos> *Marcus suddenly spots Erevis and goes to shift but somehow gets tripped up and slams face-first into the floor.
* Megumi is just shy of the thin mark that might make her seem starved, which is probably not the case, but is definitely frail and waif-looking as far as her general frame and limbs.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "I have a strange question. Is there some purpose to fake ears?"
* Megumi blinks a few times. "...A-ah..? H-hi Vyssa."
<Angela> "Oh... Mom. I almost forgot, brought you something..."
<Xanatos> Well they're cute obviously.
* Terra arrives back at the bar, quietly
* Angela feels around in the waist pouch that holds her usual tools.
* Terra is now known as Vyssa
<Vyssa> "Mmm, there is that."
<Angela> "Ah! Here it is..."
<Ariel> "...busy hallway."
* Megumi nodnods at Ariel.
* Angela pulls out a small rolled up bit of what seems to be black slick paper.
* Ariel curiousy takes the item, and opens it.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam peers over Ariel's shoulder.
* Xanatos moves along with Erevis. "I don't remember it taking so long to get to the bar honestly."
<Angela> * It's oddly displaying a moving image, on it is a short video of Ben.
* Megumi wanders over and... hugs Adam!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is the same distance.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam hugs back, and gropes Megumi's ass.
<Angela> "Ultra thin LCD, I thought you might like it."
* Vyssa watches, curious
* Megumi locks her hands and suddenly begins squeezing the unlife out of him.
<DeathStar> <Adam> URK!
* Xanatos arrives at the bar finally and walks in with Erevis.
<DeathStar> <Adam> -- wait, are those tiny things pressing against my stomach breasts?
* Megumi squints and squeezes to the point that she can feel vertebrae against her fingers.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps inside, glancing around.
* Ariel smiles, "Thank you, Angela. It's very thoughtful."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam continues to be crushed.
<DeathStar> 6* Megumi will feel something hard press against her.
* Xanatos glances around and then moves over to sit down.
* Angela smiles back. "He's doing well too, I think he takes after Warren more then Cheryl though."
* Megumi just maintains armlock until she's sure most would pass out.
<Vyssa> <Terra> "Hey Xan, Erevis."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam wiggles in agony. "Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hello. 6She bows, her ears bouncing.
* Megumi suddenly lets go. "I'm not sure what your story is, Mister Evil."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam keeps wiggling.
<Megumi> "But even if you can't die... for some odd reason. It will take a while for the blood to reach your legs so you can run away or stand."
<Xanatos> Howdy, Terra.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pauses. "Seriously?" 6He glances down, still standing.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam suddenly falls over.
* Megumi glances down ever so coldly. "Or dodge." Stomps strategically.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam wiggles in agony on the ground.
<Xanatos> So what're you in the mood to eat? *he says as he reads of the menu*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam wiggles around on the ground.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam wiggles between Ariel's legs.
* Megumi steps and dropkicks Adam.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam bounces UP while between Ariel's legs.
<DeathStar> <adam> OUF!
* Megumi raises her leg and quickly stomps him down.
<Vyssa> <Vyssa> "It seems everyone hates him."
* Ariel rests her foot on Adam's head before he bounces up too far. "Excuse me."
* Angela plants her foot firmly into Adam's face.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam is crushed down.
* Megumi poses with the other three. Some crazy deep space soccer team.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam poses on the floor, doing the peace sign
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Hm.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis studies hte menu blankly.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not know.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands back up, dusting his tuxedo off.
<Xanatos> Well I think i'm going to try this Chedder and Brocolli soup. I'm in a soupy kinda mood today. *he says with a nod*
<Megumi> "Get lost."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. .... I will eat ... the bread.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands there.
<Xanatos> Just...bread?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... yes?
<Xanatos> No meat? Or veggies?
<Megumi> "I gave that kid your wallet."
<DeathStar> <Adam> That's okay. It was Dias' wallet.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Very well. One piece of meat and one piece of brocolli.
<Vyssa> <Terra> "Well, sure."
* Xanatos smiles. "Any specific meat you desire?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will let Terra decide.
<Xanatos> *Marcus shifts by them finally, doing the stance walk.
* Megumi thinks about this, looking at the ceiling. "Fair enough."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Good work!
<Vyssa> <Terra> *gets Erevis her food, all the while thinking how strange it is. The meat is beef.*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pumps his fist toward Marcus.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I think i've almost made it around this whole station....
<DeathStar> <Adam> But you haven't done every floor.
<Vyssa> "Who is Dias, anyway?"
<Megumi> "A moron."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I...gotta do that too!?
<DeathStar> <Adam> Well, you need to learn how to do it faster. You were down the hall about 10 mins ago and you just got here.
* Megumi looks to the other two again, and since they seem occupied, regains her nervous streak and starts to edge away again.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I keep tripping...
<DeathStar> 6* Adam edges away with her. "Then you are not ready. Continue."
* Xanatos takes his soup with a nod from Terra and takes a sip of it. "Ohhhh this is amazing. Wanna try it Erevis?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I have my own food.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> ...I know. I know. *he continues on past them*
* Ariel glances at Megumi, wondering why she's acting so odd
<Xanatos> Suit yourself. *he eats merilly*
* Megumi erks and freezes. Laughing nervously.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eats her bread, piece of meat, and her broccolli
<DeathStar> 6* Adam freezes and laughs nervously.
<Ariel> "Megumi?"
<Vyssa> "What is wrong?"
* Xanatos glances at Erevis. "Now that's a healthy meal. You've almost touched onto all the food groups."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am glad you are pleased.
* Megumi reverse haymakers Adam. She's short, so the reverse refers to the orientation of her fist.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam wiggles in agony.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I know! 6He picks up Megumi, puts her on his shoulders like he did the 6 year old, then runs off.
<Megumi> "...A-Aahhh!?"
* Vyssa looks to Ariel. "Should we pursue?"
* Ariel grabs Adam by the arm as he goes to run off. "Excuse me?"
<Ariel> "WHAT do you think you're doing?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pauses. "Playing?"
<Xanatos> Not only that but you'll have much more strength and energy now that you're getting some protein.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
<Ariel> "No."
* Vyssa eyes Adam threateningly. "That is 'playing'?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Yes. The kids love this game.
<Xanatos> I'll write that one down as a victory.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... what...victory?
* Megumi wails on Adam's head with her fists.
<Vyssa> "Really. That's why Megumi is scared?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> No, she's quite angry rihgt now. She WAS scared of you two.
<DeathStar> <Adam> But I fixed that!
<Vyssa> "... I will admit she's angry too, but you did not 'fix' anything."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam shakes his whole body so Megumi would feel like she's on a rollar coaster.
<Xanatos> ...I have no idea actually. *he pauses, thinking it over*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6She stares at him.
* Megumi looks even more enraged after that's been pointed out, rearing her fist back with a spiraled blueish glow. She drives it down toward Adam's cranium as it fashions into a crystal gauntlet.
* Xanatos just shakes his head. "Just forget I said that."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Here comes the pain.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Very well.
<Vyssa> "Yes, you will be hurting very soon."
* Xanatos tilts his head back to look up at the ceiling of the bar, going quiet. Occassionally he brings a spoonful up to his mouth to eat.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sips some water.
* Xanatos glances back down and takes a sip of an...Omega Coke!?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head.
* Megumi smashes her hand into the back of Adam's head, shattering her gauntlet with the sounds of resonating glass, all the little pieces forming a misty cloud that evaporates into the very air. "Shut UP..!"
<DeathStar> 6* ADam stands there as a terrible breaking sound is heard in his skull, or neck. He falls over, apparantly dead.
* Xanatos pauses and looks down. "I...don't remember getting this."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... but you are drinking it.
* Vyssa examines the seeming-corpse
<Xanatos> But I hate this stuff...
* Megumi lands atop on her knees. Blinking blankly.
<Ariel> "...Megumi. That's enough."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam lays there face first on the ground, not moving or breathing.
* Megumi stares more. "Yes ma'am..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Then why drink it?
<Vyssa> <Terra> "... okay, I'm convinced now. This stuff is addictive."
* Xanatos slowly slides it away. "I don't know why I'm drinking it. I don't even remember buying it. Did I get one from you, Terra?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances at it, then drinks her water.
<Vyssa> <Terra> "I don't remember selling you one."
* Megumi stares. Blinks.
* Ariel leads Megumi out of there, before there's more trouble.
* Xanatos motions for Terra to get him a water as well. "...I didn't think so. Something is up with those things."
<Vyssa> "Do we just leave the guy there?"
<DeathStar> 6* People stare at the dead man, murdered before their eyes. They quietly go to call security.
<Vyssa> <Terra> *gets a water for Xan*
* Vyssa pauses, then follows Ariel
* Megumi gets lead along in silence for a while. "...U-um..."
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos gets notified of the happening via datapad.
* Xanatos takes a sip and makes a relaxing face. "Now that's better." He gets a message on his datapad and he eyes it. "..." he groans and just issues out the orders for some ensigns to go check it out and then get back to him.
* Ariel turns around after putting some distance between themselves and the incident. "Megumi. That was uncalled for."
* Angela excuses herself from Ariel, "I'm going to go get some things done... talk to you again before I leave?"
<DeathStar> 6* Security ensigns swarm around the body, taking photos.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits back.
<Vyssa> "There won't be trouble, will there?"
<Xanatos> So it seems there was a murder. Fit's Adam's description.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> He is dead again?
<Xanatos> So it would seem. *he taps his chin* I wonder if he ever died in the first place...
* Ariel gives Angela a nod, her attention on the matter at hand.
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos gets more details on what happened.
<Vyssa> <Terra> "Adam's dead?"
<Xanatos> I guess so...*he reads the report*
<Xanatos> Apparently Megumi and Ariel did it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> if Ariel was part of it, then there was a good reason. 6She goes back to forgetting the matter.
<DeathStar> 6* The security people bring the dead Adam to Peace's morgue
<Xanatos> Regardless. She'll have to be brought in for questioning.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> She outranks you.
<Xanatos> I don't care. She commited a crime.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head toward Xanatos.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at him.
* Xanatos glances at Erevis. "No one if above the law."
* Megumi blinks a few more times. "I-I didn't mean to.."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. 6She stands up and pays for her meal, bowing to Terra. "Thank you."
* Xanatos arches a brow. "Where are you going?!"
<Ariel> "You need to learn to control yourself. He did nothing to require that level of retaliation."
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "Do we know what happened?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> To my room. You have work to do, it would seem. 6She walks away.
<DeathStar> <Security Agent> He got...HIT IN THE HEAD!
* Xanatos slumps and sighs. "...stupid people going things AFTER I get off of work..." He stands and pays then moves to step out.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> *eyes the agent with his unhelpful answer* "... I guess anything beyond that isn't my area."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks out of the morgue, whistling. He waves at Peace as he leaves.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "... what?"
<DeathStar> 6* The security agent stares. "H-He had no pulse!" 6He freaks out and runs away.
<Vyssa> <Peacemaker> "..." *is speechless*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam passes Xanatos, still whistling
* Xanatos pauses and glances back at Adam. "Hey aren't you dead?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Oh, water under the bridge. 6Waves his hand in dismissal.
<Xanatos> Awesome.
* Xanatos moves off to chase after Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam gives him a thumbs up, his teeth shining.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks along, whistling until he passes Megumi, Ariel, and Vyssa. "Hey, ladies."
* Megumi looks at the ground, her feet shifting. "H-he... he..."
<Megumi> "HE!?"
<Vyssa> "... you recovered quickly..."
<Ariel> "......"
<DeathStar> <Adam> No thanks to you. Boy, you guys are evil. Good for you.
<Vyssa> "..."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam walks down another hallway, whistling again.
<Megumi> "..."
* Xanatos knocks on Erevis' door.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis opens the door, having been getting ready to paint. "Yes?"
<Xanatos> Apparently he isn't dead. I just passed him. So...I don't have to work. Isn't that great!?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ... do you even respect your job?
<Xanatos> Respect it?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Nothing.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam grabs a six year old and puts him on his shoulders, then runs off, making zooming sounds.
<Xanatos> No. Something is bothering you. No point in brushing it off.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It does not matter. 6She says, moving to get her paint.
<Vyssa> "That isn't common amongst humans, I take it."
* Megumi c-coughs. "..."
<Ariel> "No. Not at all."
<Vyssa> "I didn't think it was."
* Ariel looks to Megumi, "What did he do to incite THAT reaction from you?"
* Xanatos leans against her doorway, watching her. "I probably does. You're just treating it as if it doesn't."
* Megumi bows deeply. "I-I'm s-sorry!"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I would not say it did not matter if it did.
* Xanatos nods. "Fair enough. So what do you plan on painting today."
<Ariel> "I didn't ask you to be sorry. I asked why you did it."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not know yet.
<Xanatos> Maybe I could model for you, eh?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I .. .do not need to see you naked.
* Megumi goes silent, staring at the floor, her left foot rubbing behind the right.
* Xanatos laughs. "Well I don't have to be naked. It could be a normal ol portrait. CLothes and all.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Well, I can draw you from memory.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam catches up to Marcus later, the kid eating candy on his shoulders.
<Xanatos> Then I will definitely need something that will make me appear different than your memory.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... What?
<Ariel> "Well?"
<Xanatos> *Marcus is still doing the stance-steps. But he has seemed to have improved his speed slightly, at least he can keep himself from falling now.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam takes the kid and drops him off in front of his own room, then walks beside Marcus, brooding.
* Xanatos ponders. "I'm not sure. Maybe a costume."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... a ... costume?
<Xanatos> *Marcus glances at Adam. "Are you...brooding?"
* Megumi places her palm over one eye, clutching at her forehead a little... harshly. "...B-Because... h-he..."
<DeathStar> <Adam> ... I'm evil. Evil doesn't brood. That's a hero thing.
<Vyssa> *worried* "What did he do?"
<Xanatos> <Marcus> But...you clearly have a broody face on.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Well, you're a stupid idiot head.
* Ariel waits
<Xanatos> Yeah. Maybe I could dress up like one of those cool private eye detectives from the history books.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .. private eye detective?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I...well...you smell and your face looks funny!
<DeathStar> 6* Adam gets an eerie look. "Is that so?"
* Xanatos nods. "Yeah...I wonder if the costume shop here has one..."
* Megumi stares sternly at the ground. "Told... th-the... he... said... e-embara-- ..."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Damn strait.
* Megumi turns away, both hands at her face.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pulls out a knife.
<Xanatos> *Marcus pulls out a bigger knife.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stabs at Marcus while he's still in stance.
<Xanatos> *Marcus flails and is stabbed in the side. "GAH!!"
<DeathStar> <Adam> ... what happened to your stance? 6He pulls the knife out.
* Ariel rests a hand on Megumi's shoulder, "...if you can't talk about it now, you can tell me later."
<Xanatos> *Marcus makes a face when the knife is pulled out, he holds his side. "I...well you scared me..."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Do more stance walking. 6He walks away.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> BUT I HAVE A STAB WOUND NOW!
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns. "And I will GIVE YOU MORE IF I CATCH UP TO YOU AND YOU STOP DOING STANCE WALKING." 6He begins to approach quickly, holding the bloodied knife.
* Megumi turns, wiping at her eye with one hand, but leaves the other covered. She swipes the freed hand quickly on her hip, trying to hide a tiny amount of blood. "N-no." She shakes her head.
* Xanatos sits down on Erevis' bed. "Well, we'll leave that for another time."
<Megumi> "Y-you're perfectly right. I sh-shouldn't have..."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> ACK! *he begins to stance walk away*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Very well
<DeathStar> 6* Adam chases him. People stare.
<Ariel> "...are you alright?"
* Xanatos pulls his legs up to sit cross-legged and props his chin up on his hands, he watches Erevis closely.
* Megumi smiles eerily, refusing to remove the other hand from her face. "I-I'm fine, Miss Knight."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares. "What?"
<Xanatos> I'm just waiting to see what you're going to do.
<Megumi> "H-He just... pissed me off." Nods.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ... 6She shifts, trying to think with him staring.
<Ariel> "Lower your hand."
<Xanatos> Does my staring bother you?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
* Megumi nods slowly once, as if reassuring herself of her answer, eyes closed as she laughs, not quite fitting the tone in her voice. "Heheheh... heheh..!"
<Megumi> "...H-huh..?"
* Xanatos shifts his glance upward.
<DeathStar> 6* Marcus can be seen shifting by at rapid speeds that seem unbelieveable; Adam is running after him with a bloodied knife. "FASTER! FASTER! EVIL'S GONNA GETCHA GETCHA"
<DeathStar> 6* The two pass the three girls rapidly.
<Vyssa> "..."
<Vyssa> "... I'm starting to worry about this station."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> AHHHH! *he screams as he stance-walks by them.*
* Xanatos glances back down to Erevis now.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pauses, then begins to draw Terra.
<Ariel> "...Megumi. Let me see your face."
* Megumi stumbles backward away from Ariel, consequently tripping Adam as he passes.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam falls on his own knife.
* Vyssa eyes Megumi. "You should let her see your face."
<Megumi> "...B-but... I..."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands up with a knife in him. "Jesus Christ, what where you're going. Knives are sharp."
<DeathStar> *watch
<DeathStar> 6* Adam yanks it out and pursues after Marcus
* Xanatos slides back against the wall on her bed and crosses his arms, remaining quiet for once, watching her draw.
<Ariel> "You trust me, don't you, Megumi?"
<Vyssa> "Apparently, humans are tough."
<Xanatos> Are Terra's boobs really that big?
* Megumi smiles. "Y-yes, miss knight, b-but... b-but just... just a few more seconds and..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> They are accurate. Have you not noticed before?
<Xanatos> ...actually I haven't. *he pauses and makes a face* Oh god. I should've noticed, I'm a guy...I notice those things..."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam grabs a hood and cloak as he chases, throwing it over his head and wounds.
<DeathStar> <Adam >Thank you mysterious creepy man.
<Ariel> "......"
<Xanatos> *Marcus screams in fear as he moves along. Apparently he is most afraid of hooded figures.
<Vyssa> "He doesn't seem like a normal human at all."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam continues his chace, hooded and cloaked.
* Megumi stares downward, then defeatedly lowers her hand, giving herself a moment before looking at Ariel, peering into her eyes, that seeming the topic of her focus.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... So guys notice boobs and females do not?
<Xanatos> Well guys just notice them more often. Since Boobs are associated with sex, and most guys think about sex 98% of the day.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... I see.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> So you think about sex 98% of the day?
* Megumi twitches at her fingers, on the verge of bolting, it seems, but remains still for the moment. Her left eye is fine, but the right, the one she'd been holding out on, is tainted in the corner, a blemish of purplish maroon, sort of frothing. A tear slowly slides away from the inner, crested red in blood. After a few seconds it returns to its normal amber hue, and she quickly wipes the blood away.
<Xanatos> I think about it on the occassion, but it's not something I obsess about, no. I have other things in my life that are more important.
<Vyssa> "Are you hurt?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is good.
* Megumi shakes her head.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam suddenly slides in front of Marcus.
* Ariel nods slowly, "...a side effect, of taxing your system?"
<Xanatos> *Marcus slams into Adam and stumbles backwards.
<DeathStar> 6* He stabs at him.
* Megumi shakes her head again. "..."
* Ariel pauses at that. "...then what?"
<Xanatos> *Marcus shift, using ths stances walking motion to avoid the stab.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stabs again.
<Megumi> "A ...side effect of being left alone to fend for myself."
<Xanatos> Would me thinking about sex 98% of the time, bother you?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
<Xanatos> *Marcus shifts like he would be taking the next step in the stance walk, avoiding this stab as well.
<Vyssa> "... I'm sorry to hear that you've been alone so long..."
<Xanatos> What about 75%
<Xanatos> ?
<DeathStar> <Adam> You have mastered the stance movements.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Yes.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam throws the knife into a pocket.
<Xanatos> 50%?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ... ... Yes.
<Xanatos> *Marcus breathes a sigh of relief.
<Xanatos> 25%!?
<DeathStar> <Adam> After you are healed, I will show you how to also attack using that. It is both offensive and defensive.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns and walks away.
* Megumi rubs one foot with the other, ears falling a bit. "You already know what happens if I 'tax' myself. This is... very different."
<Xanatos> Alright! *he shifts and moves off to get himself patched up*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If you wish.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam leans against a wall, taking heaving breaths.
* Ariel nods, starting to look worried. "What is it?"
<Xanatos> NRP: Marcus did that*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam pushes his hand against his chest, focusing.
<Xanatos> So 25% is ok?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You are a human male.
* Megumi shakes her head. "I don't want to talk about that."
* Megumi smiles. "Can't we just... be friends?"
* Xanatos breathes a sigh of relief. "I can't help but be what I am."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. I know.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands up straight after a moment, then walks along again, fully healed.
<Xanatos> Oh wow I didn't notice that freckle on Terra either...see I completely stink at detailing.
<Ariel> "Being friends is one thing. If this is connected to you breaking someone's skull for saying something you didn't like..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Terra has many striking features.
<Ariel> "What are you afraid of?"
<Megumi> "The darkness, like anyone else."
* Megumi holds her sides. "I don't want to see that again."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands in the shadows, watching Megumi, Ariel, and Vyssa, masking his presence completely.
<Xanatos> She is a very attractive young woman. Yet she seems to hide it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> She has her reasons. 6Does a brush stroke on Terra's lips.
<Xanatos> Everyone does. *he says with a nod*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
<Ariel> "Do the rest of us need to fear that you might strike out at us?"
* Vyssa stays quiet
* Megumi crouches close to the ground. "I... don't want to..."
* Xanatos tilts his head backwards to rest on the wall and slowly closes his eyes.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis continues to draw, until she stops, feeling tired.
* Ariel sits down next to Megumi, "Then, tell me about it. Maybe we can help."
<Vyssa> "At the least, we can offer advice."
* Xanatos has his arms crossed, he slowly perks one eye open. "Finished?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am done for now.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns to face him. Somehow, she got paint in her hair. Again.
<Xanatos> Tilt his head, smiling. You got some paint in your hair...again. *he slides off the bed and mvoes over to her* Come'on let's wash it out before it drys.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is only paint.
<Vyssa> "If there is any way I can help, I want to."
<Xanatos> If it dries your hair will be a tangles mess and you'll have to cut it to make it managable.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is only hair.
<Xanatos> ...hair is important. It helps present ourselves. A person's appearance, hair included, tells alot about that person.
* Megumi is quiet for a long time, shivering, then opens her eyes and after a deep inhale, raspily whispers. "...It will happen again."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Very well. 6She walks into the bathroom.
<Xanatos> You need my help? *he steps after her*
<Vyssa> "What is it?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You are the one who cares about the hair.
<Xanatos> I'll take that as a yes. *he steps in and moves over, getting the water going.*
<Megumi> "A broken part of me... Something I did to myself while alone... Based on the Fairlights..."
* Ariel listens quietly
<Megumi> "They... m-may not be real... b-but... the idea... I couldn't..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis walks over to the showetr.
* Megumi bites her knuckle for a moment. "I c-couldn't kill someone so... I... I thought of them... and... and..."
* Xanatos taps his chin. "A fair warning. You may get your shirt wet."
* Vyssa listens quietly, obviously worried for her
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see...
<Ariel> "...sounds like Angela."
* Xanatos holds the bottle of shampoo ready, waiting for Erevis to stick her head under the water.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sighs and does so.
<Vyssa> "She was like that too?"
<Megumi> "I-It didn't work like the story of the Fairlights... I o-only broke... my... my head..."
* Ariel hugs Megumi gently, "You'll need to tell me that story some day."
<Vyssa> "I don't know that story either..."
* Xanatos whistles as he takes the shampoo and applies it to her scalp, he works the get the paint out.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tries to act sullen.
* Vyssa hugs Megumi a little too.
* Megumi juts her lip out, pouting. "He asked for it."
<Vyssa> "I'm not blaming you.."
<Megumi> "He grabbed my rear end."
* Xanatos whistles as he moves from getting the paint out to giving her a massage on her scalp. "Oh come'on now. Enough of that, just relax."
<Vyssa> "... that is asking for it."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I jsut washed the hair earlier. 6She mutters sullenly.
<Ariel> "Still... a deathblow is... overkill."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam still peers on them from the shadows.
<Xanatos> Well I guess next time you'll be more careful when painting.
* Megumi pouts at the ground. "It's one of the more hair triggers..."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns and walks away. "A soul tainted by darkness. How interesting."
<Vyssa> "I understand."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... wait, what are you doing?
<Xanatos> ....washing your hair.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ... it feels weird.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam laughs happily as he walks away.
<Xanatos> Oh, i'm just massaging your scalp a little. I thought you might like it...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Is it..necessary to clean my hair? 6She squirms.
<Xanatos> Not really. Do you not like it?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ...
* Xanatos frowns and stops, then begins to rinse the soap out.
<DeathStar> <ERevis> Why did you stop?
<Xanatos> I...I thought you didn't like it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I did not say that.
* Xanatos pauses having half rinsed her hair. "Well...ok then." he resumes massaging her scalp.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Since you are rinsing, we might as well quit. 6She notes, shaking her hair.
* Xanatos twitches and goes back to rinsing her hair. "...so you liked the massage though?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I did not dislike it.
<Xanatos> ...and that means thats I can do this for you again sometime?
* Megumi is now known as Kit
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I plan to not get paint in my hair again.
* Ariel is now known as Ari[AWAY]
<Xanatos> ...well nevermind then. *he stands up and grabs a towel, placing it on her head, he twists it and then flops it back, doing the classic towel on the head pose the women oh so love.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... what is this?
<Xanatos> Whenever your hair is wet, you can pull it up like this to give it time to dry and it keeps it out of your way.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares, then gives him a hug.
* Xanatos pauses and hugs back, "So what did I do for you to feel sorry for me, this time?"
* Vyssa is now known as Alicia
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I did not feel sorry for you. 6She steps back to the main room.
* Xanatos pauses and then shuts off the water and steps out after her. "Well then I definitely wont complain. I enjoy your hugs."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I would hope so. I would not hug if you did not enjoy them.
* Xanatos smiles and sits down on the edge of her bed. "You know. Maybe if you do it enough, you'll get to where you enjoy them too."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We shall see.

<DeathStar> Location: PAX
* Megumi NRP-like coughs, having done it in the wrong freaking channel, of course.
* Megumi passively avoids bumping into Ariel for the most part after the previous day's events. She wouldn't care to run into Adam, either, so short of being contacted by Terra, avoids the bar and citizenry areas. Which pretty much leaves a backarea where she glances into space, and then heads for the training area.
* Ariel sits on the observation deck, looking out at the stars. She's got a bit on her mind after recent events, and coming here helps her sort things out.
* Alicia is now known as Terra
* Terra heads onto the observation deck herself. The stars are calling.
* Megumi isn't so special she can reach the observation deck if it's for these folks and resorted to some engineering bay probably D<
* Megumi enters the training room and pulls up some dummies for practice.
<Terra> <Red Fox> *is beating up on some dummies herself. She doesn't seem to have noticed Megumi*
* Megumi alligns three in a row, spaced seven to eight feet and then stands in front of them, taking a deep breath. She interlocks her fingers and stretches them out, bending each knee and warming up briefly.
<Terra> <Red Fox> "Been practising?"
* Megumi kneels, sliding her dominant left foot forward, and closes her eyes. She focuses a moment, doing somethign she hasn't in a while, forming a blueish point in her retracted left hand. Eventually it takes on the form of a dagger fashioned of two entwined pillars of crystal.
<Terra> "So much space, isn't there?"
* Megumi digs her front foot in and thrusts forward with the dagger, puncturing the first dummy, ripping a hole three times wider out the back despite a shallow thrust. The entire midsection of the next is ripped to shreds by large shards of the shattered crystal dagger, leaving smaller fractures in the last from the remaining pieces filtering through.
<Terra> <Red Fox> "Nice. I usually need weapons to do that."
* Megumi leaps eight feet in the air, spinning. "Eeeeeyah!?"
* Megumi points, shaking.
<Megumi> "Where'd you come from..!?"
<Terra> <Red Fox> "I've been in here all the time."
<Megumi> "... ... ... ..Oh."
<Terra> <Red Fox> "Nice jumping too."
* Megumi rubs her chin, then shakes her head.
<Megumi> "Tell me; What what you do if hypothetically you were a person and a half, and half of you scared yourself too much to be around people, but the other longed to?"
<Megumi> "Wait!!"
<Terra> <Red Fox> "Hypothetically.. I'd try to control my more dangerous half."
* Megumi leaps over the ground to Fox, looking right past her.
* Megumi pauses, then nods. "I know that much..."
<Terra> <Red Fox> "It's a difficult question to answer."
* Terra is now known as Red_Fox
<Red_Fox> "I wonder if anyone else has found a proper answer yet?"
<Red_Fox> "I guess it would depend how much one half longed to, and how much the other scared you."
* Ariel is now known as Ari[AWAY]
* Red_Fox is now known as Alicia

<Megumi> "Computer! Are you still ignoring me!"
* Megumi flails out of the training room. "Find miss knight!"
<Alicia> <Red Fox> "... I guess I'm not much help."
<DeathStar> 6* The computer directs her to Liza Knight
* Megumi twitches idly. "That's not-- Grr. Ariel! Find Ariel!"
* Megumi claps her hands.
<Megumi> "Go boy, go get her!"
<DeathStar> 6* The computer redirects her to the observation deck. TAking the long route.
* Megumi obliviously takes the long freaking route, arriving after some time, falling to knees and panting.
<Megumi> "H-hate... you..."
<Alicia> <Terra> "Hey Megumi."
<Ari[AWAY]> Ariel> *looks up* "Are you alright, Megumi?"
<Megumi> "S-s-s-stupid... c-c-c-omputer..."
* Megumi heaves, heaves, huffs, hefts to her feet. Takes a moment for her breathing, then stomps and points menacingly at Ariel.
<Megumi> "Y-you!"
* Megumi clenches her hand. "C'mon! I-I'll get you this time!"
<Alicia> <Terra> "Wow, the computer really doesn't like you, does it?"
* Megumi staggers and both palms fall to her knees as she hunches over panting again.
* Ari[AWAY] is now known as Ariel
* Ariel goes to help Megumi up
* Alicia is now known as Terra
* Megumi sighs softly, adjusting her stance and calming. "Aw.. Wh-why'd you come and h-help... I was... ch-challenging you again..."
* Ariel shakes her head, "Not today Megumi... You need your rest, and I'm not feeling like a spar today."
<Megumi> "Tch, I w-was just winded because of the dumb computer. It plays games with me..."
* Megumi hops backward and holds both hands over her head triumphantly. "I'll take you on! And win this time!"
<Ariel> "Not today you won't."
<Megumi> "Why not!?"
* Megumi frowns and pouts profusely. "You're always so mellow. I figured I might pound some excitement into that thick skull!"
<Terra> "She doesn't want to, let her be..."
<Ariel> "...thick skull?"
<Megumi> "Stubborn!"
* Megumi flails slightly. "Uptight!"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien suddenly can be heard laughing.
* Terra glances over
<Ariel> "I'll accept stubborn. Uptight? That's a bit off target."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands at the door way to the observation deck, laughing.
* Megumi folds her hands before her and bows slightly, about to say "I'm sorry though I--" Her ears perk and she jerks back upward and looks toward the source.
<Megumi> "N-nahh! Go away!"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks over, still amused. He stops when he's face to face with Ariel, then suddenly shoots out his hands to grab either side of her head. He pauses, as if doing something important. "Hmmm."
* Megumi flails more. "Nahhh!"
<Megumi> "Wh-what are you doing here! Bah!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm checking the thickness of Ariel's skull. 6He keeps moving his hands along her head.
<Ariel> "......" *eyes Darien*
* Megumi purses her lips, clenching her fists before her. "I'll check yours, in a minute!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I heard about your temper yesterday already, Megumi. 6He childes her mildly.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien drops his hands finally. "I'm glad to see you are not thick skulled, Ariel." 6He keeps his face right in front of her's, smiling.
* Megumi blinks slightly, then looks to Ariel, jerks a bit and turns away, crouching and holding her head sullenly.
<Ariel> "It was Adam. I can't blaim her."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien finally turns to glance at Megumi. "I know. I thought about giving her some ice cream as a reward."
* Megumi staggers slightly, almost falling over from both comments. Ariel supporting? Darien happy? ...!
<Terra> "You know... I think I will."
<Terra> "Adam's a wanker."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien smirks, running his hand through his longish hair. "But I don't know if I want to know. I mean, threatening to check the size of my skull. That doesn't sound very nice."
<DeathStar> *now
* Megumi looks over her shoulder with a childish glare. "Then g-get lost..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wow. So friendly.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien shrugs his shoulders, gives Terra friendly smile, and walks off.
<Ariel> "Alright you two, play nice."
* Megumi stands again, crossing her arms stubbornly. "He knows I c-can't talk openly with people around..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien gaves them all a little wave and steps out of the observation area.
<Megumi> "B-bye, mister Darien..."
* Megumi crouches again, tugging on her own ears. "Oh man..."
<Terra> <Terra> "See you around, Darien!"
* Megumi smacks her forehead into the floor. "Why'd I do that?"
<Ariel> "Megumi, come here a sec."
* Megumi glances upward and falls onto her seat. "H-huh?"
<Ariel> "Don't beat yourself up over this. Darien's just teasing you."
* Megumi pulls herself to her seat and steps the few steps back toward Ariel.
<Megumi> "I know that... But I didn't need to be so snappy about it."
<Megumi> "Can't... help it."
<Ariel> "Why are you so uncomfortable around people anyways?"
<Megumi> "...E-eh..! Well that's..."
* Megumi 's attention dwindles to the floor, a foot rubbing behind the other.
<Ariel> "Hmm?"
* Seraphna is now known as Angela
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks along, having left the observation deck area and moves down to the civilian deck with the stores.
* Angela is looking into a shop window.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses, then steps up behind Angela. "I don't know if that bikini would fit you."
* Terra sighs a little, staring into space
* Angela smiles and looks up at him, "Me either..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Though I'm not sure why we sell them on a station in space.
<Angela> "Your station."
<Megumi> "I never r-really... Got along with them to begin with..."
<Megumi> "But..."
<DeathStar> <DArien> I think you can find your girls on the observation deck, if you're looking for them.
* Megumi holds her hands behind her and toes at the ground.
* Angela reaches up and feels Darien's goatie almost randomly, smiling, "Thanks."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien raises a brow. "Uh, no problem."
* Angela grins and turns, facing him, "Vacation's almost over..."
<Ariel> "But?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's true.
* Megumi crouches, holding her negatively shaking head. "Man, I've said many times I've been stuck on some backwater planet for more than a year... When I got back I... I..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ready to leave this exciting life of sneaking politics, running idiots, and mysterious murders?
<Angela> "Not really,but I'll have to survive with my job of making thigns that blow other things up."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm sure you'll find something interesting to do. Maybe you could try to blow up Fox. She seems bored.
* Angela hugs Darien.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hugs her back using one arm. She's small enough.
<Angela> "I'm really gonna miss you..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, if you ever want to hang out with boring old guys, I'm sure Warren will suffice.
<Ariel> "Well, don't feel like I'm pushing you."
<Angela> "Dunno... I get this creepy feeling around him."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Everyone does, honey.
<Angela> "Yeah I guess..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You're seriously creeped out by Warren?
<Angela> "No, just this feeling, like there's something... off."
* Megumi shakes her head. "Hrmph."
<DeathStar> <Darien> .... what do you mean?
* Megumi gets up suddenly, coming dangerously close to headbutting Ariel on the way up.
<Ariel> "I'm curious though... you're not nervous around me. Why's that?"
* Megumi raises an arm and prods her rather meanly in the collarbone. "See here!"
<Angela> "Ever had that feeling like you're at the end of puzzling something together but you just can't find the link to make the answer whole?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Most of my old investigations were like that at points.
* Terra glances over to Ariel and Megumi again
<Angela> "I guess... it's just wierd as heck."
<Ariel> "......"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I see. 6He crosses his arms, pondering on that
* Megumi frowns intensely. "Of course I'm nervous around you!"
<Megumi> "Are you blind...!?"
<Angela> "I dunno... maybe it's the event that connects us..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> The event?
* Angela nods
<Angela> "The same incident that killed my natural parents... and nearly killed me... well... killed his fiance."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes.
* Ariel just sighs.
<Terra> "You're nervous around me too, then, I bet."
<Ariel> "Then I'll rephrase. Why are you able to chew me out, when you have problems getting two words strung together for most other people?"
<Angela> Maybe it's be less wierd if I knew who those natural parents really were... thier records were destroyed."
* Megumi shakes her head quickly and clutches the sides of her temples with her palms, looking toward the ceiling.
<DeathStar> <Darien> So this mystery makes you uneasy around Warren?
<Terra> "You know, that's a good question."
<Angela> "Oddly... it shouldn't... I mean... it's not like we're related except through Cheryl right?" *giggles a little, then looks down*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches her.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, the two aren't married, no.
* Angela blinks and looks up at him, thinking, then shakes her head. "No, they just share a kid."
<Megumi> "I-I... don't know... I..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yep. They might not even have a relationship, you know.

* Megumi drops her hands, dangling them at her sides, but still looks at the ceiling a while before slowly angling down.
<Angela> "Never really assumed they did. I mean, I doubt this Warren had any of the same motivations to forgive her..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, he doesn't hate her. He wouldn't raise a kid with her so easily if he did.
<DeathStar> <Darien> All faults aside, Warren is a good father.
<Angela> "Never thought he wasn't..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm just saying. You can judge a man by how he treats family.
* Ariel shakes her head, "Don't worry about it then. It's not important."
* Angela folds her arms under her chest and sighs, "Before you... took over on the PAX... he was sorta my anchor."
<Angela> "The Old Warren... that is."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yeah. I know Warren looked out for you.
<Angela> "I never really understood why..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> He's Warren. We're not meant to understand him.
<Angela> "But you know..." *she looks away* "He suggested this."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Suggested what?
<Angela> "Me giving up my Dragoons powers."
<DeathStar> <Darien> He did?
<Angela> "He did."
<DeathStar> <Darien> When?
* Megumi stares Ariel in the eyes. "I really don't know. I suppose I can sense security in you."
<Megumi> "Or maybe it's a lack thereof."
<Angela> "Just before he... before he died..."
<Terra> "Ouch."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Really?
* Angela nods.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You sure he wasn't high?
<Angela> "It was one of those moments where you knew he was thinking straight, even if he was."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, I'll be.
* Ariel simply nods
* Angela runs a hand through her hair, sighing deeply. "Heck, even Zephyr challenged me to it. Don't think she really believed I'd do it."
<DeathStar> <Darien> And here are you.
<DeathStar> *you are
* Angela nods
* Megumi turns away from Ariel with a pout. "You're not fun at all..."
<Megumi> "It's simple, really."
<Angela> "As I should be. Heck, I'm what I always wanted to be too, an Engineer."
<Megumi> "You could beat me, yet you still don't... seem to think of me any worse..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You have everything you wanted.
<Terra> "Is that all?"
* Angela nods. "Mostly... just need to find a stable man now that's not plotting world domination."
<Ariel> "Why would I think down upon you?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> Tom Pilot isn't.
<DeathStar> *Darien
<Angela> "Stable? I know."
* Angela grins.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well put.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grins back.
<Megumi> "Because everyone else does..."
* Angela puts her hands behind her head, looking at him. "You're still the best guy I can think of, you know."
<Megumi> "Even that moron did... And I could have killed him. But just because he kicked me around..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> The best guy for world domination?
<Megumi> "Everyone from the diplomats treats me like a dog, just because one word can get me set home..."
<Megumi> "That's how people are..."
<Angela> "Nah, you'd choose to wipe it clean first."
* Megumi clenches her fists. "The nicest ones are always the worst."
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's true. Though I do feel odd that we have a Ragnorak loose.
<Terra> "Everyone?"
<Ariel> "Not everyone is like that." *Pauses* "...although, quite a few of the diplomats here I wouldn't wish you to be in the company of."
<Angela> "Are we sure it's really loose?"
<Terra> "Oh yeah, agreed on that."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, there doesn't appear to be any sign of the Ragnorak of this timeline. I mean, we could hope that it got erased because of what took place, but seeing as you guys didn't impact the history of our timeline any, something tells me Ragnorak exists.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien slides his hands into his pockets.
* Megumi turns, sweeping her hand to the side, snarling quietly. "Everyone I've ever met is..!!" Then she realizes who she's talking to, and glances past to Terra, and turns around again, holding her sides in guilt.
<Terra> "Man, I'm glad I'm not a diplomat."
<Angela> "We did impact it, actually."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Outside you ranking Warren from the timeline and Phaeton yanking out your otherself, you really didn't, kiddo
<Angela> "Still an impact..."
* Angela shrugs
<Angela> "You think Phaeton has Ragnarok?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> A possibility.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien rocks forward. "But don't worry. I doubt Phaeton can use it without Wind.":
<Megumi> "...I-I'm sorry..."
<Terra> "It's alright. I know you weren't including me."
<Angela> "He doesn't need Wind, though."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh?
<Angela> "Nope. What happens when you can't find a battery?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I seriously doubt you can find a battery that's uniquely suited like Wind.
<Angela> "Really?"
<Angela> "She's on this station."
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... Erevis. 6He pauses.
* Angela smiles and nods. "And if I've thought of it, Phaeton has too."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I guess sometimes I limit her abilities because she's trapped in flesh.
* Angela nods, 'And Phaeton wouldn't care, he'd force her out."
<Ariel> "You needn't appologise so much. I don't believe Terra took it personally."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Or burn her up.
<Angela> "Watch her... and I'd avoid letting the fake get near her either."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, you know me. I'm always watchful.
* Megumi purses her lips. "But you did..."
<Ariel> "I did?"
<Megumi> "You didn't mention yourself, so..."
<Ariel> "I've never thought of myself as a nice person. I know I've comitted many sins."
<Terra> "My past isn't exactly spotless either."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches some women walk by, narrowing his eyes a bit.
* Megumi hits either side of her head with her fists. "Ugh..."
<Terra> "Are you feeling alright?"
<Megumi> "Look... I'll put it simply..."
* Megumi gestures with one hand away. "I don't ...feel comfortable around people because..."
<Megumi> "They've always sought to use me. One way or another."
<Terra> "Oh, that.."
<Terra> "I've... sortof been there..."
* Angela follows his gaze, "Demonstrating your prowess to me?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes.
* Ariel smiles sympathetically at that, "I can understand what you've been through then..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances back at Angela. "I even did the Warren look."
<Megumi> "At least... I think I was normal once..."
* Megumi holds a hand over her left eye. "But ever since I started to go wild on Kilek, people... have... When Famfrit retrieved me, even they..."
* Megumi holds both hands outward fingers digging into her squeezed palms. "As I said, just because I'm an 'honor guard,' doesn't mean I want to be!"
<Megumi> "It might be useful... If I really were..!"
<Ariel> "What do you want to do?"
* Megumi pauses, shocked.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands in the hallway, holding up a sign that says "You want to do evil"
<Terra> "Do what you want to. It's what I do."
<Terra> "Though, I usually hold back when what I want is things like punching Adam in the face."
* Megumi blushes!
<Megumi> "I d-didn't mean to cave his head in! ...That much!"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns the sign and on the back it reads "LOL :D"
<Terra> "Yeah... I know..."
* Terra makes a rude hand gesture at Adam
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns the sign again and it has a sad face
<Terra> "... how does he have three different things on the same sign?"
<Megumi> "I... I just want to see new places... Experience new things... It's what I've always wanted to do-- What I intended when I joined the Famfrit homeworld schools. But... Because I made myself 'useful...' I can't..."
<Terra> "You sound like me."
* Megumi crouches, ears drooping. "Heheh... S-sound like Angela... Sound like madame... sound tainted... sound like an animal... Wonder if I ever sound like myself..."
<DeathStar> <Voice> You sound like you are speaking in your own voice to me.
* Megumi 's ears perk, and she attempts to find the ...voice!
<Terra> "Yeah, it's just we feel the same way about some things." *looks to the voice*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands there, probably having come looking for Ariel. She bows her head in greeting
<Megumi> "..A-ah... M-miss Erevis..."
<Terra> "Hey."
* Angela sighs and taps Darien's shoulder, "Enough watching."
* Ariel offers Erevis a smile.
<DeathStar> <Darien> But--I'm looking at you
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods to them all, staying a little ways back as they were having a conversation. She nods to Ariel.
* Megumi goes all quiet again, sulking at the ground.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam has gone; somehow he left before Erevis arrived
* Angela grins, "Just testing."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oookay.
<Terra> "You know what I've found to be the best way to do something like that, though?"
<Terra> "Find a way to make what you want to do useful, or to make what's useful serve what you want to do."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien shifts, crossing his arms.
<Angela> "Okay, take me out for a bite to eat, I'm hungry."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wow. That was very direct.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien smiles, then motions ahead as he walks along. "Since Terra's not working, we'll eat that other place."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis remains quiet, apparantly not wanting to intrude more than she did.
* Dias has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<Angela> "Sure."
* Angela follows him.
<DeathStar> 6* DArien walks along.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien still walks
* Megumi holds out her palm and punches it, making a resounding 'Thwack!" sound.
<Megumi> "Too qu-quiet!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis jerks and blinks.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stops in front of the fancy restuarant, then glances at Bob's. He ponders.
* Megumi hops to her feet, wiping her eyes away of excess water.
* Megumi points menacingly at Erevis.
* Angela grins at Darien.
<Megumi> "Y-you'd fight, right?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at her, confused. "If there was necessary cause."
<Megumi> "M-miss Knight won't... s-so...!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, Bob's?
<Terra> "I'd fight too, if... oh, you want to train?"
* Megumi holds her hands over her head in dismay. "S-so take her place! I p-promised I'd beat her next time!"
<Ariel> "Ah... Megumi. You might want to put some thought into that."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not believe I could adequately replace Ariel.
* Megumi sulks!
<Angela> "Up to you, I personalyl do not trust anyone named Bob."
* Megumi turns and grabs Ariel's hands, shaking her arms. "H-how am I s-supposed to prove it i-if you k-keep refusing!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Alright, Alright. 6He steps into the fancier one.
<Terra> "... well, I can't replace Ariel either."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at Megumi and Ariel.
<Ariel> "If you insist that much, I'll give you another chance. But not today."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits down and looks at the fancy menu. "I don't know if I can pronounce this stuff."
* Megumi stomps, her hands clenched at her sides, pouting. "..."
* Angela looks at it and smiles, "Then be glad Alexander Cran made me learn all those goddamned languages."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am sure you can wait a little while, can you not?
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm surprised he taught you how to speak like that
<Megumi> "...I don't know..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Why?
* Megumi postures her other arm, one foot rubbing against the other. "The way things seemed in the chambers and between people as of late... I think soon..."
<Megumi> "We might all break apart, right? I know it hasn't been long... But..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see.
* Terra nods sadly. "It's possible.."
* Megumi half-closes her eyes and stares out the viewing panes. "I'll go back to being a good dog. Can't avoid the ambassador if we're back within our own ship or means, you know."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis says nothing, not really knowing.
<Megumi> "Definitely doubt I'd see any of you again-- Let alone Ariel for something pointless like a rematch."
* Megumi leans down and punches the ground. "Well, not pointless... I really thought..."
* Ariel frowns a little, "Before you leave. Definately. If it's what you want."
<Megumi> "It's not going to be an option if the council goes haywire. I'm not that dumb."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis cups her hands together in front of her as she listens
<Megumi> "Besides, it's not worth it now."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It's not?
<Terra> "Your decision."
* Megumi covers one of her eyes again. "Yeah... my decision... heheh..."
<Terra> "... are you alright?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis studies her.
<Megumi> "Maybe. Because I'm regretting what I sought out."
<Megumi> "...I think that's normal."
<Terra> "Depends what you sought out."
* Angela grins, "Why's that?"
* Angela looks over the menu, picking out what she wants.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I just can't see him cursing. 6He orders the soup.
<Megumi> "Something I thought only miss knight could give me, obviously."
<Angela> "Nah, his guards taught me that."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Classic.
* Megumi stands slowly and tilts her head to the side, glancing at Erevis somberly and returning a studious look, before slowly walking over to her, her free hand beckoning with a finger.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pauses, then steps forward. "Yes?"
* Megumi leans close, letting her shielding hand fall away and whispers something quietly to Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head as she studies Megumi.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis then nods.
* X1 has joined #taw
* Ariel eyes the two curiously.
* Megumi peers over her shoulder, glaring at Ariel with the hemmoraged violet eye that she was afflicted with the night before, though she looks forward at Erevis, then glances over her opposite shoulder with a solemn look instead, the effect drained away as she wipes blood away with her hand.
<Ariel> "......"
<Terra> "... ouch... that looks bad."
* Megumi nervously sucks it off her fingers with delicate attention. "Someday I'll find it."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. I believe so.
<Terra> "You're sure you're alright..?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans back as the food arrives. He studies the fancy soup.
* Megumi smiles weakly. "I'm fine."
<Megumi> "Are you two going to stare off into space, literally, all night, or find something fun to do?"
<Terra> "I like the stars, but if you have any suggestions..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wow. 6He takes his soup, then takes a bite of it. "Tastes like it should only be 2 credits."
<Angela> "It takes getting used to."
* Angela munches on some bread, looking at her salad.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'd say.
<Megumi> "Mmm... Erevis! Is there any place to swim on this heap?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis considers. "I would imagine the simulator rooms have a swimming program."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien just takes a bite out of Angela's salad, chewing it thoughtfully. "I could make better.:'
* Megumi breaks. "S-simulators? We have... 'simulators?'"
<Ariel> "Everything is simulators these days..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. The latest models are on the station.
<Megumi> "...A simulator...? I know the word, but what's a simulator?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I believe the General wanted them on the station to recall the "good old days". 6She quotes, not getting it
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If the proper codes and principles are applied to it's programs, it can recreate environments.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Without one needing to travel to the actual location.
<Megumi> "...!?"
* Megumi holds her hands up. "Awesome! Like a Diode!"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Diode?
<Terra> "I'd ask what a Diode is, but I think it's the same."
* Megumi recoils. "Er... someone from my world that uses their ability to affect the senses of a person. An intricate illusion."
* Angela takes a bite and nods, "Okay, so maybe they're overpriced."
<Megumi> "It can be deadly if messed up, though."
<Megumi> "They use it to re-experience memories, mostly."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I understand. This is the same equipment.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Maybe. I should tax them more for being on my station.
<Megumi> "Equipment? A person performs it on my world."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Oh. This is done by machiens.
<Megumi> "My mother took me once!"
<Megumi> "...But she had me re-experience one of her sessions with a Lockbreaker."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> A lockbreaker?
* Megumi sulks entirely. "It sucked."
<Terra> "... I don't understand any of this."
<Megumi> "Ehh... You probably have your own terms for it. Translation isn't always the best, you know."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head, wondering if she can figure it out
<Megumi> "But it's someone who fights primarily with the upper knees, elbows, the ends of the forearms below the palms... etc. Hard points of the body with leverage. It takes advantage of skeletal strength over muscular build."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> A fighter. I understand.
<Megumi> "Consequently they secondarily specialize in evading and breaking holds."
<Terra> "Hmm."
<Terra> "... I was going to say I could do that, but... no."
<Megumi> "Basically, it's a way for someone with less physical prowess to still attack rather devastatingly, and likes to focus on the joints of their opponent. It's something I'm good at now... But..."
* Megumi sulks.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> But?
<Megumi> "At the time, I got to re-experience my mother getting her tush kicked."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head again.
<Terra> "I... tend to attack too devastatingly if I try."
<Megumi> "Like I said, a Diode primarily recalls and recreates memories. In order to see it firsthand, my mother had me emerge one of her memories."
<Terra> "No chance of me using something like that."
* Megumi squints. "It wasn't pleasant."
<Terra> "... why did she do it, then?"
<Megumi> "Nothing beats experience."
* Megumi suddenly stands and cheerfully holds her hands up. "Let's go swimming!"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ... 6She glances to see if the others are willing to go.
<Terra> "... sure."
* Angela enjoys her meal with Darien... after they go to Bob's instead.
* Terra decides not to offer to try to teach Megumi any of her own style
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis bows her head to the two. "Enjoy your swim."
<Megumi> "No, no, miss Erevis. You have to come!"
* Megumi runs back and around Ariel and begins pushing at the small of her back. "And you too!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances at Ariel, almost helplessly.
* Ariel shrugs a little... Looks like they're roped in too
<DeathStar> 6* The spinning TAW logo appears. When it vanishes, they're all at the beach produced by the simulator. Darien's bill rises slowly without him knowing.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands, wearing a one piece suit, not actually leaving the beach.
* Terra looks around, smiling, in a bikini
<DeathStar> 6* A crabs walks sideways by them
* Terra eyes the crab
* Megumi chases the crab gleefully, having produced a two piece with a bottom adorned by a ribbon ridiculous to the point that she might trip on it were it an inch larger. She leaves etched marks in the sand from sandals.
<DeathStar> 6* The crab moves as fast as it can
* Ariel has no Bikini this time... she's in a silvery skyblue one piece. Backless, but still a one piece.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis crosses her arms; her's is just navy blue, and not blackless.
* Ariel watches Megumi chase a crab, sitting by the edge of the water.
* Terra laughs a little
<Megumi> "Come baaaaack!"
<DeathStar> 6* It hides under the sand.
* Megumi leaps, her shadow fading, then darkening as she careens toward the ground. She slams her fist into the ground near where the crab sunk, expelling enough force to create a cloud of sand uplifted from the source.
<Megumi> "Hyaaaah! Not getting away!"
<DeathStar> 6* The crab goes flying
* Megumi chases the flying object!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis feels sorry for the poor crab.
* Ariel does too.
<DeathStar> 6* The crab falls.
* Megumi pounces on it
<DeathStar> 6* The crab tries to snap her
* Megumi stands up wailing. "Nahhhh! Get it off! Get it off!"
<Megumi> "Wahhhh!"
<DeathStar> 6* The crab holds on.
<Terra> "I had a feeling that was going to happen..."
* Ariel laughs a little
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not think it likes being chased and thrown.
<Ariel> "I wouldn't think so."
<Terra> "Well, would you?"
* Megumi holds her hand close to her face and stares at the thumbsnatcher. "C-crab sushi for dinner..."
* Megumi pouts, teary-eyed.
<DeathStar> 6* The crab lets go and makes a break for it
* Megumi slumps to her knees in the sand and frustratedly watches it run away.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Did you not come here to swim? 6She asks.
<Terra> "We did."
<Megumi> "If we just wanted to swim, we could have simulated a swimming pool..."
<Megumi> "There's other things to enjoy at a beach!"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Oh?
* Megumi flops backward and squints at the sky.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits down on the hot sand.
<Terra> "Yeah, I wouldn't want to just swim, though."
<Megumi> "Liiiike..."
* Megumi produces a beach ball. "Heeeee..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis just stares.
<DeathStar> 6* The crab watches from a safe distance. Plotting.
* Megumi lifts, sets, and swats the ball at Ariel.
* Ariel bumps the ball into the air with her forearm. "Little warning next time?"
<Megumi> "That was the point..."
* Megumi pouts glumly.
* Ariel knocks the ball back towares Megumi once it comes down into reach again
<Megumi> "I mean, if I let you know it was coming you'd not have to-- gack!"
* Megumi falls over after talking too much to notice it returning.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis picks up some sand, holding it in her hands.
* Megumi sobs lightly, half-heartedly thwacking the beach ball to Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* The ball almost reaches Erevis' head as she never turns, but it suddenly is knocked back toward Megumi without her touching it. She holds out the sand, letting it pour down back onto the beach
* Megumi stares in disbelief so long she eats the ball again.
* Megumi gets back up with some effort... and hits it to Terra.
* Terra jumps, and hits it back
* Megumi catches it, then walks over and kneels in a good empty expanse of sand close to the water.
* Megumi places her palm on the ground, blueish lines forming in a giant rectangle, dividing it in half... two rods of crystal rising out of the ground. Give her a few minutes and she's painted "lines" with crystal and formed a "net."
* Megumi wipes off her forehead. "There!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks up to watch
<Megumi> "C'mon! Two on two!"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Two..on two?
<Megumi> "Yeah, two teams of two."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Teams of what?
<Terra> "Volleyball teams!"
<Megumi> ".. Us, what else?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... volleyball?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Ariel.
<Megumi> "It's simple. Try to hit the ball into the opposing team's court within the lines."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands up.
<Megumi> "If you manage to hit the ground, you score a point. You defend by hitting the ball, but a player can only hit it once consecutively. Then your teammate has to hit it before you can again."
<Megumi> "If you hit four or more times without sending it over the net, however, you fault and lose that point."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I understand. 6Stands within in the lines. It would appear she has a competitive streak
<Megumi> "Play starts when one team serves the ball toward the other."
<Terra> "So, who's on which team?"
* Ariel gets up slowly, brushing the sand off
<Megumi> "I know who I want, but I don't think I should say..."
<Megumi> "Rock, paper, scissors?"
<Terra> "Sure."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands there.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis holds up her hand
* Megumi stares both ways, then holds up her's. "Fine."
<Megumi> "You never set the terms, so if I win, I get you, if I lose I get Ariel!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pauses, clearly working that out in her head.
<Terra> "Well, I can't complain either way."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
* Megumi smiles innocently. So child-like. "Don't worry, miss Erevis, it's only for fun!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at her. "I will let you count."
<Megumi> "...Alright."
<Megumi> "Three!"
* Megumi motions. "Two!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis forms paper.
* Megumi blinks.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I -- thought people went on three...
<Megumi> "Oh, I was counting down."
<Terra> "That's when counting up."
<Megumi> "One! ....Two!"
* Megumi smacks her palm. "Three!"
<DeathStar> 6 *Erevis forms rock
* Megumi forms rock. =_=
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances between their hands. "Since no one won, do I get Ariel?"
<Megumi> "Normally you play over again."
* Megumi sits crosslegged and twitches. "Never accounted for draws in terms."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then does that mean Ariel is on my team?
<Megumi> "If that makes you happy, I guess."
* Megumi rainclouds.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... we could do it over, if you like. 6She says after seeing her expression.
<Megumi> "I'd appreciate that, but not if you're looking forward to it so much." Twitch-twitch.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not mind.
<Megumi> "Fine! If you insist!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head.
<Megumi> "One!"
<Megumi> "Two....!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis prepares herself
<Megumi> "Three!"
<DeathStar> 6 *Erevis forms scissors
* Megumi closes her eyes and forms some indiscriminantly unformed sign somewhere between the vicinity of rock and Kill Bill's exploding palm
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares
<Terra> "...?"
<Megumi> "Roc-kyaaaahh!"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Roc-kyaaaah?
* Megumi flails her hand into the sand seven times, before flinging the crab, a crab, something of the sort, across the beach.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis watches confused
* Megumi sucks on her thumb. "Rockgh." ;_;
<Terra> "Revenge of the crab."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You win. 6She bows her head.
<DeathStar> -END-
