<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-583.3.21 - 2 days after last episode-
<DeathStar> Location: Arakawa Residence
<DeathStar> 6* After returning with the captured President, the team was given house arrest as Cassandra's place, because she would really hate that. And for two days, they have been left alone, and kept out of the loop, of the events going on in the government
<DeathStar> 6* While the public has been waiting an explanation, one has been slow in coming; except for today, in which the Vice President announced he planned to address the people of EarthGov. However, before that, the team has been given notice they will be having "meetings" with officals from the government. It is almost that time
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC sits quietly at the kitchen table, a piece of paper infront of her and several crayons around it.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake is brain dead in Cassandra's personal closet, oddly enough
<Angela> * Jenn sits with her, watching curiously.
<Kit> 6Chii grumbles. 1"At least I wasn't put off in some research kennel."
* Cassandra` is in her teahouse, having some...well...tea.
<Marcus-> *Theron sits at the table as well, but it seems he is reading one of Cass' books that he found around the house.
* Angela is with Cass, enjoying tea.
<Kit> <Freyja> You would have been cute there, too.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sits in the garden, being all zen like.
<Chad`Winters> 6It's Kama Sutra for the Soul.
<Kit> <Chii> Keep pushing...
<Angela> * Darce is sleeping in the garden, too much zen.
* Marcus- is layed out on the couch, sleeping.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya lurks about, exploring.
<Angela> Jenn> "Whatcha drawing SPoC?"
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> A picture.
<Angela> Jenn> "Of what?"
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I am not sure.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *mutters* "They just had to put everyone in our place..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks out in front of Cassandra, apparantly having slept out in the tea house. He pauses.
<Angela> "They've probably already torn apart every other location, this was the biggest after all."
* Angela looks up at Darien.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias having spent the last two days keeping to himself meanders into the kitchen.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "... ... ..."
<Kit> <Lilith> Do you not like us here, Guardian Mother?
<Marcus-> <Theron> Perhaps when Lady SPoC has finished, you will have your answer. *he announces, eyes moving from his book to Jennifer.*
<Cassandra`> ...what the...? ..how could we be in here and not see him sleeping in here?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is strangely not in the house, or in the teahouse
<Angela> * Jenn looks over at him curiously, "What's up Mister Theron?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> You think Setsuna is the only one who can do that kind of stuff?
<Ariel> Setsuna> "It's one thing for you, Raquel, and Billy. It's another to have drunken bums crawling out of the furnature." *gestures to Darien*
<Cassandra`> ...stealth sleeping?
<Angela> "He's good at that."
<Kit> 6Chii peers around, rubbing her head. Megumi wanders in about the same time, adjusting her sunglasses. They ask simultaneously-- 1"Where is Cheryl[Erevis]?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> 1) I'm not drunk. 2) Who was passed out during our biggest mission? Hmm?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien crosses his arms.
* Marcus- reaches out with his hand, and falls off of the couch with ta thud.
<Kit> <Lilith> I wonder if Lady Raquel and Mistress Billy have awakened yet...
<Ariel> Setsuna> "It was a moment of introspective meditation."
<Marcus-> *Theron shrugs slightly. "I am reading." He announces, like it were to be something that Jennifer should already know.
* Chad`Winters sits in a chair, his eyes focused down at the coffee table.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves to the fridge and opens it, rummaging through
<Ariel> Raquel> *sits up on the roof because... well, it's quieter*
* Marcus- slowly pulls the pillow off of his head and glances around. "...what time is it?" he asks Chad.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Besides, Chad and Warren are outside the tea house, and I don't feel like being shot.
<Angela> * Jenn scratches her head and turns her attention back to SPoC
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is on the roof, too, oddly enough. Raquel has found Erevis
<Angela> "Then sit with me and have some tea."
* Angela pats the spot next to her.
<Chad`Winters> 11:48 am.
<Kit> 6Lilith tilts her head, then nods. 1"I have located Lady Raquel." 6She begins venturing off. Megumi stares, then continues her search with the teahouse.
<Kit> <Chii> ...Beh, searching would be too much trouble.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien moves over and sits down at the tea table.
* Marcus- groans. "It's so bright in here. I miss my windowless rooms." He pulls himself up onto the couch and rubs his face.
* Angela pours him some tea and smiles.
<Cassandra`> ...shot?
<Chad`Winters> You think you have it rough. You should see yourself in broad daylight.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, though they took our weapons away, I still have no doubt those two can shoot me.
<Cassandra`> ....right.
<Angela> "Warren somehow always has a gun for that."
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC continues coloring a picture
<Marcus-> Oh ho ho. That was a good one. You been sitting there all morning thinking it up? Hope it didn't cause you too much trouble.
<Angela> * Jenn takes some paper and looks at the crayons, "Can I use one?"
<Kit> 6Megumi peers in. 1"They would find a way, yes. At the very least they could ask of some manner of manual projectile from me."
<Cassandra`> ..better not shoot up the place...sheesh...
<DeathStar> 6* Billy runs in, balancing priceless chinaware. She begins to stumble.
<Kit> 6Megumi then gazes around the teahouse. 1"...Beloved is not here." 6She ducks out.
<Cassandra`> EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...I'm glad we took out insurance to cover these people."
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I do not know, can you? 6She tilts her head.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy flails and falls.
* Cassandra` dives to save her china!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps back from the fridge, shutting the door. Holding some leftovers.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches Cassandra dramatically save the china.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Nice.
<Kit> 6Chii saves one piece of china, a cup, and pours something in it, sipping. She makes no movement to save the rest.
<Cassandra`> ...s..s...safe....
* Angela claps.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy looks up. "Awesome."
* Chad`Winters grunts in response. He taps his fingers together as he stares ahead.
<Marcus-> I see. Very interesting of you to say Mr. Winters. I do think I am awesome too. Thank you for saying you were just kidding and that you really think I should be Aya's god-father. Really. It means alot.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy dusts herself off.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...as impressive as that was, don't do it again Billy. We have enough trouble with the others right now."
<DeathStar> <Billy> Lets try again with the priceless vase. 6* She runs off.
* Chad`Winters glances up at Marcus, he just snorts, shaking his head.
* Angela sighs and smiles.
<Kit> 6Chii downs the teacup of alcohol, then tosses the empty cup to Setsuna.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches her go, then looks at Setsuna.
* Marcus- gives chad a thumbs up. "Glad we had this talk, pal." He turns and moves upstairs.
<Angela> "Evidence why kids might not be such a good idea."
* Cassandra` sets the china in the nearby cabinet...
<Kit> <Chii> God I'm bored...
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, it takes certain kinds to adopt proclaimed evil ones.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien motions at Chii. "Case in point."
<Angela> "That it does."
<Kit> 6Lilith appears on the roof, narrowing her eyes at Raquel. She begins creeping up in an eerie fashion.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *puts the cup away, and then goes to save the vase*
<Kit> 6Chii stares at Darien. 1"Huh?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien is already staring at something else.
<Ariel> Raquel> *leans back, looking at Lilith behind her*
* Marcus- whistles casually as he steps into the bathroom.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks up from taking a nice, relaxing bath.
<Kit> 6Lilith peers down at Raquel, upside-down. She huffily notes. 1"We have not gone for a walk."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves through the kitchen.
* Marcus- pauses and glances behind himself. "Seriously. No locked doors?"
* Angela looks at Darien. "How are you holding up?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina covers herself up. "Haven't you heard of knocking?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm fine.
<Ariel> Raquel> *looks at the upside down Lilith* "...we're not supposed to leave the house."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren steps into the area where Chad's at, leaning on his cane.
<Angela> * Jenn draws pictures.
<Kit> <Lilith> It has sufficient estate.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I like the blue.
<Marcus-> Only when a door is locked. *he rubs his chin* But yeah, sorry. Is there another bathroom in this house because I really have to pee.
* Chad`Winters glances up at Warren. 1"I like cane."
<Kit> 6Chii wanders down the hall now, over the 'too much trouble' bit to look for Cheryl.
<Ariel> Raquel> "...it's a big house, but not that big."
<Kit> 6Lilith narrows her eyes.
<Chad`Winters> It'll make a great kick stand.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I guess when you dyed your hair, you forgot how to make proper sentences.
* Chad`Winters just shakes his head smirking.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I don't know. Maybe. Check around. 6* She gloweres.
<Ariel> Raquel> "...we can if you want, but it'll involve going around in circles."
* Angela looks at Darien still. "You've been awfully quiet you know. Especially back on the mission."
<Kit> 6Chii peers around Marcus, smiling intently. She idly wonders what Katrina would do if she pushed Marcus.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh? I'm always quiet.
<Angela> "I guess so."
<Kit> <Lilith> This is no issue." 6She nods intently. Megumi appears on the roof, shielding the sun with her arm.
<Angela> "DOes it seem like we're forgetting something?"
* Marcus- slowly turns around to eye Chii. "Yeah, sorry Kat. I'll knock next time." He turns back to wink at her, then moves to push Chii out, shutting the door behind himself.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't think so.
<Chad`Winters> I don't like how long it's taking them to decide.
<Kit> <Chii> Spoilsport.
* Angela nods and looks down at her tea, thinking about it.
<DeathStar> <Warren> *pops a pill* You don't like anything.
* Chad`Winters goes to respond then pauses, thinking about it.
<Marcus-> Don't start Chii Chii. I'll be all sorts of naughty that you might not want to see. *he whistles as he moves off to find another batheroom*
* Cassandra` pinches the bridge of her node.
<Cassandra`> NRP: nose
<Kit> <Chii> ...Chi-chi?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks at Cassandra.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Stress gives you wrinkles.
<Cassandra`> I don't wrinkle.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Really? Are you sure? I think I see one.
<Ariel> Raquel> "...my hiding spot is becoming popular."
<Kit> 6Chii eyes Marcus strangely. 1"...What the hell do you mean by 'all sorts of naughty?' That sounds ...bad in itself."
<Chad`Winters> Well I can't argue that statement easily. 6He shrugs as he leans back.
* Angela giggles a little.
<Marcus-> I've decided that's what i'm gonna call you from now on. Pretty cute, right? *he walks backwards to talk to her*
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC finishes coloring and sits back to look at her picture.
<Kit> 6Chii twitches slightly. 1"That's what you mean by it? You have a deathwish?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> *grunts approvingly*
<Marcus-> *Theron dramatially flips a page...well ok. He just does it all normal life.
<Angela> * Jenn stops and looks at it with her.
<Marcus-> What's wrong kitten, don't like cute things? *he pauses when he almost bumps into a side table*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias plops down in the teahouse and begins eating.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Dias.
<Kit> <Lilith> Let us go, Lady Raquel." 6She sounds insistent. Skipped walks are an unhappy inugami.
* Cassandra` eyes Darien...her enemy.
<Kit> 6Megumi walks up behind Erevis.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias begins eating the leftovers using his fingers. He pauses looking up at Darien. 1"What?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't shift, or acknowledge she senses Megumi.
* Angela hands Dias a cup of tea.
<Ariel> Raquel> *hops up after Lilith, reaching up to scratch behind her ear teasingly*
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... The idea you in a teahouse is an oxymoron.
<DeathStar> *of you
<Chad`Winters> 6It's a picture of landscape.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> What's a tea house?
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias shakes his head at Angela
<Kit> <Chii> ...I hate you. I really do. I think next time I'll throw the bomb at you instead of asking for help.
* Angela sighs and sets it down, sitting back.
<Chad`Winters> I hate because I care. 6He gives Warren one of those looks.
<Angela> * Jenn smiles, "It looks good!"
<DeathStar> <Warren> *looks at Chad* Liar.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I know, I drew it.
<Cassandra`> ...this is a tea house...
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks past Chii and Marcus. "Blowing up allies gives negative points."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...It looks like a shack to me.
<Kit> <Chii> But he's being annoying. Totally annoying..
<Marcus-> That really hurts you know. I'm just trying to be nice here. Put forward an offer of good faith and all that.
<Chad`Winters> Bold words from the pill popper.
<DeathStar> <Warren> At least I'm honest. 6* He shakes his bottle at Chad.
<Kit> 6Lilith gazes at Raquel, perhaps happy again because there's a lack of expression as she's scratched at. She doesn't have her dog ears again yet, after all.
<Angela> "It's supposed to be a smaller building like this."
<Kit> 6Megumi pounces at Erevis.
<Angela> * Jennifer holds up hers, a picture of SPoC drawing.
* Chad`Winters shrugs. 1"We lie because thats what people want."
<Kit> 6Chii pauses, blinking. 1"Wait, you are?"
<Ariel> Raquel> *smiles softly* "What are we going to do about you..."
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC eyes it. 1"It is...Why did you draw me?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> We lie because it's convenient.
<DeathStar> <Warren> For example. I love the blue hair.
<Angela> Jennifer> "Because you were in view. And I thought you might like it."
<Cassandra`> ...no..its a tea house...
<Kit> <Lilith> Something must be done with me, Lady Raquel?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is pounced. She turns her head a little to look at Megumi. Her neck is no longer wrapped, and she bares scars from Legion's grasp. "Hello, Megumi."
<Chad`Winters> Lieing isn't convenient. It takes more to lie than it does to tell the truth. We lie to protect our glass houses.
<Marcus-> Have I been mean to you lately in any shape or form at all? Noooo I don't think so.
<Ariel> Raquel> *nods*
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> It looks like a shack to me. 6He shoves more food into his mouth.
<DeathStar> <Warren> *looks at Chad* Lying is easier than the truth.
<Chad`Winters> I know, I lied.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I could tell. Your lip twitches when you lie.
<Chad`Winters> And how do you know that's not a lie in itself?
<Cassandra`> ...its a teahouse...and you just shoved an entire tube worth of wasabi in your mouth.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Because it always twitches. 6* He eyes his watch. "The government vehicles will be here in 5 mins."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> That's what that's called? 6He eyes Cass.
<Kit> <Chii> You're right. You even took my word for it during the battle instead of telling me it was lame or idiotic. Huh.
* Chad`Winters just smirks again. He stands up. 1"I'm gonna go find Aya."
<Cassandra`> The green stuff.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Check where ever Marcus is at.
<Chad`Winters> Why's that? 6He stops glancing back at Warren.
<Angela> * Jenn watches SPoC carefully, still holdig her picture.
<DeathStar> <Warren> He likes them young.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks at him blankly.
* Marcus` has joined #taw
<Kit> <Lilith> Why? Have I not met expectations?
<Kit> <Megumi> Hello, beloved. Are you worrying of something?
<Chad`Winters> Great, I hope that chip's still active. 6He moves off down the hallway
* Marcus- has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm. I am mostly thinking.
<Kit> Chii to Marcus. "1You're right. You even took my word for it during the battle instead of telling me it was lame or idiotic. Huh."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Huh. Oh well. 6He shoves more food into his mouth.
<Kit> 6Freyja sighs restlessly in the main area.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes Freyja.
* Marcus` shrugs with a slight smile. "Interesting. Eh? Now I need to pee." He hurries off.
* Cassandra` pinches the bridge of her nose.
<Kit>
<Ariel> Raquel> *shakes her head* "It's not that... I want you to stay, but in order for you to stay, you must become a different Lilith..."
<Kit> 6Freyja peers back at Warren, a rather uncharacteristic lack of empathy or humor in her eyes.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grunts.
<DeathStar> 6* Marcus finds a tempting bathroom
<Angela> *Jenn puts down her picture and yawns a little.
* Marcus` smiles and moves to open the door, then pauses, and knocks.
<DeathStar> 6* No response.
* Marcus` knocks one more time. "Anyone in there?"
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I see...I will be sure to move next time.
<DeathStar> 6* No response.
<Kit> <Lilith> Different? ...I suppose you could refer to it as such. I merely need to reassume my memories and become my human self again. I would breach the contract and cease being an inugami." 6She looks upward, perhaps pondering that.
<Angela> Jenn> "Nah don't, it was fun."
<Kit> <Freyja> Even as old as I am, I don't speak that tongue, Warren..
<DeathStar> <Warren> It's why I grunted.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren turns to go
<Kit> <Freyja> I see." 6She crosses her legs and gazes out of the foyer windows.
* Angela is now known as Jennifer`
<DeathStar> 6* Warren walks out
* Jennifer` sets the crayon down and admires her handiwork again.
* Marcus` moves to step into the bathroom.
<DeathStar> 6* HE FINDS---
<DeathStar> 6* No one.
<Kit> <Megumi> What is it you are thinking of?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Numerous things.
<Ariel> Raquel> *nods slowly... worried*
* Marcus` shuts the door behind himself and moves to pee, sighing with relief. Damn morning pees take forever.
<Kit> <Lilith> I am hesitant to do so. I would be able to stay with you, but I would be less capable of protecting Lady Raquel.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias groans as he finishes the last piece. 1"Ooof, something's not sitting right."
<DeathStar> <Darien> That would be everything you just ate.
<Ariel> Raquel> "...you wouldn't have to stay either."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Really?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Who knows with you
<Kit> <Lilith> You no longer require me...?
* Marcus` flushes the toilet and moves to wash his hands, whistling yet again.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...What's that supposed to mean?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, look, it's time to go be interrogated
<Ariel> Raquel> *shakes her head* "No... I didn't mean that..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands up and walks off.
<Kit> 6Megumi moves around Erevis and sits on the edge of the roof, kicking her feet. 1"...What do we do from here? Asmodeus and Legion are still out there somewhere, but there are no longer any direct links."
* Jennifer` gets up, stretching a little. "Jeez I need to move around and do something..."
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> That would be wise.
* Marcus` dries his hand off and steps out, moving back towards the living room, whistling all the while.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not know. I do not know what to do anymore.
* Chad`Winters glances into a room. 1"Aya?"
<DeathStar> 6* Billy steps out in a blonde wig. "Daddy!" 6* She holds up her hands to Chad
<Kit> <Megumi> Well, at least we share that then. I still do not understand for what purpose I met Wind again or why Legion refers to me as a key.
* Chad`Winters just stares at Billy with a blonde wig. 1"Right..."
<DeathStar> 6* Billy tears up.
<Cassandra`> ...feel a burn in your sinuses?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<Chad`Winters> I'm sure if you hurry up, Marcus'll get real excited.
<Kit> <LIlith> I see. There is nothing required of you, Lady Raquel. Do not feel obligated.
<Jennifer`> * Angie finishes her tea and gets up.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Oh, nice, old man.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy skips away.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...6Sniff. 1"No."
* Chad`Winters grunts and shuts the door. He moves down and checks another room.
* Marcus` sits back down on the couch now and turns on the holo-vid.
<Ariel> Raquel> *looks down* "...nevermind."
<Kit> <Chii> ... So Cheryl, why're you wandering around? Shouldn't you be resting or something?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sits around in the garden
<Cassandra`> Amazing...and frightening.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl looks arond in Cassandra's things. "Hm? I'm fine."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Why? What's this wazabig stuff supposed to do?
<Kit> 6Lilith reaches over and pats Raquel once, then looks forward dutifully. Her walk.
<Jennifer`> Angela> "This... what?"
* Chad`Winters steps into the garden, he glances around.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya gets a ! over her head.
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad shoots it, stunning her. Oh wait no gun.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks over at Chad.
* Marcus` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Marcus` has joined #taw
<DeathStar> 6* the government vehicles pull up outside the house. Warren is there, waiting on them.
<Kit> 6Megumi kicks her feet. 1"I suppose it is useless curiousity. Perhaps there was no meaning to Wind's words, nor do I need to know to what ends Legion requires of me in order to destroy him."
* Jennifer` peeks out of the door at the cars.
<Chad`Winters> Find something interesting? 6He looks at her.
<Ariel> Raquel> *leans against Lilith, but says nothing*
<Kit> 6Chii crosses her arms in an annoyed fashion. 1"Last time you said that... we stopped moving prematurely."
<Kit> 6Freyja flickers to outside the window she was watching and walks slowly up behind Warren.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis, tilting her head to view the vehicles, then looks at Megumi. "I do not know...only you can determine that." 6* She stands, closing her eyes and taking a deep breath. She appears melancholy, perhaps even depressed, though she hides it. She reaches up and grabs her hair, pulling outa knife, slicing through it, cutting it's length down so it's only down to her mid-back now.
<DeathStar> <Aya> *shakes her head*
<DeathStar> <Warren> Honk the horn. It's an uncoventional group.
<Chad`Winters> Oh. 6He just nods. 1"Well the vehicles should be here soon."
<DeathStar> 6* The driver stares, then honks.
* Jennifer` giggles a bit and steps out to join her dad.
<Jennifer`> * ANgela sighs and heads out of the tea house and to the gate.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps up beside Warren. The two men ignore each other.
<Kit> 6Megumi eyes Erevis. 1"...Why did you do that?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias stands up then grabs his stomach. 1"Ugh..."
<Cassandra`> Finally...come on... *stands up and walks for the gate on the outer wall of the property*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias shakes his head and moves after Cass.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC turns her head. 1"It is time to go Jennifer." 6She turns moving out.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lets the strands of hair go. "I desired a change."
<Marcus`> *Theron pauses and checks the time, then stands and walks out, leaving the book on the table.
<Jennifer`> * Angela steps up to Darien's other side and yawns a bit.
<Kit> <Chii> They better give me back my weapons or I'll be piss-- oh. They're here."
* Marcus` hops up and then walks towards the honking sound.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina walks out, all clean.
<Jennifer`> * Darce drags himself out of the Garden, rubbing his head and grumbling.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl steals some outfits that looks good, and walks outside.
* Chad`Winters glances up. 1"That's our cue. Let's go Aya."
* Marcus` glances over at Kat. "Feeling all nice and clean?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya gets to her feet, dusting her bottom, then moves to join Chad
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Hrmph. Perv.
<Kit> 6Chii tags Cheryl. Megumi nods to Erevis. 1"I see. Should I keep my previous annul and sever mine as well?"
* Chad`Winters moves out with Aya.
<Marcus`> Right, I did that on purpose..
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias stops outside by the others then turns and ralphs up everything he just ate. He coughs several times.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis shakes her head. "I think your hair is beautiful as it is." 6* She walks along the rooftop.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Dias. "Great. Again."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I know you did. 6* She steps away from Dias.
<Kit> 6Megumi puffs her cheeks slightly. 1"..."
<Jennifer`> Angela> "Ewww..."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Ugh, I don't know this is possible, but I think it actually tasted better coming up than going down.
* Jennifer` shakes her head.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> That is not aesthetically appeasing.
<Kit> <Freyja> So a decision has been made?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis climbs down from the roof and looks at Dias sympathetically. "I understand your situation."
<DeathStar> <Warren> Hm. Who knows.
* Marcus` snorts. "Yeah, I don't think so."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren gets into one of the catrs.
* Jennifer` follows Warren, getting in with him.
* Chad`Winters steps out of the house, shutting the door behind him and Aya.
<Kit> 6Megumi pinches her nose again as she passes Dias. Lilith leads Raquel out. 1"It is time," 6Almost resentfully. Interrupted her walk.
<Jennifer`> * Darce grumbles and gets into a car.
* Cassandra` climbs into one of the cars...
<Marcus`> *Theron gets into the car with Cassandra.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at Erevis. 1"Thanks." 6He coughs, wiping his mouth then moves into a vehicle.
<Kit> 6Freyja joins Jennifer. Megumi follows Erevis... Lilith leads Raquel to the emptiest... Chii tries following Cheryl.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl just picks a car based on distance to her.
<Kit> 6Chii hopes it isn't the guy's who just ralphed.
<Chad`Winters> Which car do you want to sit take Aya? 6He looks down at her.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya shrugs.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: -sit
<Jennifer`> * ANgela gets into a car, not seeming to much care which.
* Marcus` whistles and gets into the car with Dias, then makes a face. "Wow man. You smell."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Pscht, open the window and it'll go away.
<Chad`Winters> You sure?
* Marcus` rolls down his window, shifting his head toward the fresh air.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves into a car, sitting across from Warren and Jennifer.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *is just in the car with Cass. Didn't enter. Just there*
<DeathStar> <Aya> *shrugs again*
<Chad`Winters> Alright. 6He moves off.
* Chad`Winters opens the door to a car for Aya
<DeathStar> 6* Aya climbs in
* Chad`Winters clinbs in after her, shutting the door.
<DeathStar> -SCENE JUMP/TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> Location: Presidential Building
<DeathStar> 6* The team has been divided into sub groups and placed in separate rooms. The groups are:
<DeathStar> 6* Cassandra, Setsuna, Theron, and Darce in one room
<Marcus`> *Theron sits quietly as per usual.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren, Chad, Freyja, and Katrina in one group
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl, Chii, Dias, and Marcus in another group
<DeathStar> 6* Angela, Darien, and whoever is an adult and not a kid in the last group. Bah. The kids got sent off to play elsewhere, as they're minors.
<DeathStar> 6* So far, they've been left alone in the rooms
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias paces the room for the umpteenth time.
<Ariel> Raquel> *sits with her dog and wonders why she was brought along?*
<Jennifer`> * Darce sleeps.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sits around, staring at the wall
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is quiet, ehr eyes closed. Darien glances at her now and again, then at the ceiling
<Jennifer`> * Jenn looks at her in concern, "You alright?"
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC sits on the floor cross legged, her eyes closed.
<Jennifer`> * Angela sighs a bit and rubs her face, "Why call us here to sit quietly?"
* Marcus` whistles all the while, fiddling with his thumbs.
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's called stewing
<Kit> 6Megumi does much of the same, eyes closed, arms crossed.
<Jennifer`> Angela> "Bleh." *she sits back and looks at Darien* "So you think we're in trouble?"
* Chad`Winters stares up at the cieling, his eyes moving along it, doing something
<DeathStar> 6* Warren is sad. His pills were taken.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Probably.
<Marcus`> So if they point a gun at me. I'm allowed to punch them, right? Self defense.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well yeah, but watch out for the other guns being pointed at you
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks at Chad. "So, Chad. I love the hair."
<Jennifer`> Angela> "It sucks being the good guys sometimes."
<Cassandra`> ...I wonder why the theatrics.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *takes a sip of vodka she ninjaed in* "Well... it's calmer than being back at the house."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Mmm.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien rubs his chin. "I can't help think we're missing one person."
<Marcus`> Oh course. *he goes back to doing the whistlinga nd fiddling thing.*
* Chad`Winters blinks, slowly looking at Kat, he then sighs. 1"That obvious huh?"
<Kit> <Chii> If they point a gun at me I'm certainly going to break something. Or two. Fuck that.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *taps her head, with a smile*
<Jennifer`> Angela> "I said I thought we were forgettting something."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> We could throw them out a window again. 6* She seems to have been told what happened.
<Kit> <Freyja> Ah, you stole a bath, did you Katrina?
<Kit> 6Chii suddenly tears up. 1"..."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Hm? I took a bath, yes.
<Kit> <Freyja> You seemed happier.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Come to think of it. We are missing people.
<Chad`Winters> There are no secrets from you at times. 6He sighs sitting down on the floor, his hands tracing along something
<Jennifer`> Angela> "Yep."
<Kit> <Megumi> Miss Arhnya?
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes Chad. "You're so OCD."
<Jennifer`> Angela> "Myria for one..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes, her for one.
<Chad`Winters> We all have our vices.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Yes. Yours is just annoying
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Do I?
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias grumbles. 1"That's it I'm officially bored. 6He moves over to Marcus and grapples him.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren shifts the table so it's crooked now.
<Kit> 6Lilith sits beside Raquel, having forced her inugami traits back out and assumed the more puppyish form. <...>
<Jennifer`> Angela> "Ummm... Drake's braindead... so I doubt he matters."
<Chad`Winters> Atleast mines doesn't hurt the people around me.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> That is cold Angela Bennet.
<DeathStar> <Warren> *grunts* We'll see if you say that when Aya thinks it's normal to trace lines.
<Kit> <Chii> ..." 6She gazes at Cheryl. 1"Can we do that too?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> No.
<Ariel> Raquel> *smiles and scritches Lilith*
<Kit> <Chii> Damn.
<Jennifer`> Angela> "I suppose it is, but I'm just trying to lift people off."
<Jennifer`> Angela> "Think of anyone else, Darien?"
<Chad`Winters> And we'll see you keep popping pills when Jennifer things that's normal.
* Marcus` eyes DIas. "Dude you better get off of me."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Hm. Where's Ariel?
<DeathStar> <Warren> I lied to her and told them they were diet pills.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'm bored Marcus. 6He shoves him lightly.
<Jennifer`> Angela> "Good. You remembered. We left her back at the base before the mission..."
<Kit> <Megumi> She indeed failed to evacuate. Or refused.
<DeathStar> 6* An officer walks into the room with Cassandra. He sits down.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I thought I saw her at the house.
<Kit> 6Freyja cheerfully emits. 1"Hello!"
<Marcus`> Dude. I will kill you. This looks Gay.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans back, thinking
<Marcus`> *Theron watches the officer
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks at Freyja oddly.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Fine, whatever. 6He throws his hands up.
<Jennifer`> Angela> "Sure that wasn't Cheryl? They look similar."
<Jennifer`> Darce> "Mmm... toast..." *he's still asleep*
* Cassandra` folds her hands together.
<DeathStar> NRP: And, for my sake:
* Chad`Winters rubs his face as he stands up. 1"How things going Kat?"
<DeathStar> NRP: #CassandraGroup
<DeathStar> NRP: #CherylGroup
<DeathStar> NRP: #LeftOverGroup
<DeathStar> 6* Warren's group remains in this room
<Kit> Lilith <Lady Raquel, where is Mistress Billy?>
* Jennifer` is now known as Angela
<Ariel> Raquel> "... I don't know. She vanishes a lot."
<DeathStar> 6* Another officer walks into Warren's room finally
<DeathStar> <Officer> Sorry for the wait.
<Kit> <Freyja> No problem. Take your time, so to speak.
* Chad`Winters looks over at the Officer.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren shifts slightly. Katrina takes note of the officer.
<DeathStar> 6* He glances at Chad on the floor, but politely does not comment, and sits down
* Chad`Winters having stood up earlier wonders why he glances at the floor
<DeathStar> 6* The officer sits. "Well, I'd like to talk to you about your experiences since going rogue."
<Kit> 6Freyja eyes Warren after the word 'rogue' is used.
* Chad`Winters crosses his arms now, his eyes focusing on the officer.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren clucks his tongue.
<DeathStar> <Officer> First off. Can you tell me what led up to you fighting against the military?
<Kit> <Freyja> Starts out with the simple things, doesn't he?
<DeathStar> <Warren> *grunts*
<DeathStar> <Officer> Well?
* Chad`Winters glances at Warren.
<Kit> 6Freyja gestures at the others. 1"What, you want me to summarize it? I wasn't here the whole time, you know."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren glances at Chad.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *sighs* We were attacked by the military with no provocation. We defended, and then learned that they were allied with the Dark Ones.
<DeathStar> 6* The officer writes something in his notepad.
<Kit> <Freyja> I think I'll leave my segment out of this. It's not necessarily relevant to their question.
<DeathStar> <Officer> You attacked the military. You killed innocent soldiers. How can you justify this?
<Kit> <Freyja> Well, there will always be casualties when the masses fail to see what's directly in front of them.
<Chad`Winters> It was not our intentions. Even some of those deaths were caused by your own people.
<Kit> 6Freyja leans back, cradling a knee. 1"I can offer that it was never the intent of anyone in this room to put mere innocents to waste."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> We tried to be careful, but when you're being fired at in a life or death situation, mistakes happen.
<Chad`Winters> Casualties are an inevitable outcome to any conflict. No matter how much a strategists thinks things through, he can't account for everything.
<DeathStar> <Officer> *leans back* Didn't you all sign an oath to EarthGov? Well, except you. *he looks at Freyja* So tell me. How can you justify attacking the government?
<Chad`Winters> May I ask you something? 6He looks at the officer now.
<DeathStar> <Officer> What? *his lip twitches*
<Kit> <Freyja> Oath? Attacking the government?" 6Giggles.
<Chad`Winters> How can the government justify what they did to Alexander Pope, Drake and Miranda?
<DeathStar> <Officer> *looks at a paper* Members of your group, right?
<Chad`Winters> Yes.
<DeathStar> <Officer> *leans back*
<Chad`Winters> How can you point fingers for sins when your side is guilty of such things themselves?
<DeathStar> <Officer> Eye for an eye, hm, Mr. Winters?
<Chad`Winters> No, I do not believe such a thing is right with innocent people.
<DeathStar> <Officer> The fact is you've brought down this entire government. You've left us open to attack. Our military is divided. Our people confused
<DeathStar> <Officer> And it's all because you attacked your own military.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks at the ceiling
<DeathStar> <Warren> I'd rather have a divided government that can be reunited, than one that's crushed from the inside out by an enemy that has no concern for our well being
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks at the officer. "That's my statement."
<DeathStar> 6* The officer stands.
<DeathStar> 6* And walks out
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sighs. "He was trying to provoke us. I didn't sense malice."
* Chad`Winters nods solemnly
<DeathStar> 6* Warren rubs his forehead with his thumb.
<Kit> <Freyja> That went well! It really did.
<Kit> 6Freyja nods slightly. 1"I really wonder about Cheryl though. Dias, Marcus and Chii? Heaven help her."
* Kulix has joined #TAW
<DeathStar> <Katrina> They're probably boned.
* Chad`Winters glances at Freyja then closes his eyes, his arms crossing now
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina used boned. Yes.
<Kit> <Freyja> If it's any consolation I could go see how they're doing, but I'm sure our hosts wouldn't appreciate it.
<DeathStar> <Warren> *grunts*
* Chad`Winters grunts also.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina plays with her bangs. "You two are so cherry."
<Chad`Winters> I thought we were peachy.
<Kit> <Freyja> We could cheer them up, Katrina. You're good at that.
<DeathStar> <Warren> You're peachy.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> What does that mean? 6* She glances at her.
<Kit> 6Freyja grins widely, but it looks more like Chii's sort of smile.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina frowns.
* Chad`Winters laughs lightly as he glances at Warren.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren glances at Chad.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *looks at the ceiling now*
<Kit> 6Freyja flickers, hugging Katrina from the side. 1"Only kidding."
* Chad`Winters let's out a breath as he rests his head against the wall.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT/TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> 6* All the groups, cept the kids, have been reunited into one room. So far, they haven't had time to compare notes
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes Marcus. "So. Did you get us an execution?"
<Marcus`> Whooa, don't look at me. *he motions at Chii* She threatened him.
<Kit> <Chii> No, apparently I did. Big surprise.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> She threatenedt o break his legs.
* Cassandra` facepalms.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sighs. "Chii."
<Kit> <Chii> I was just saying what'd happen if it was a boxed situation!
<Marcus`> Totally threatened him. Nice guy too.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis observes them all quietly.
<Kit> <Chii> Cute.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Thank God I told them I was in L.A.
<Marcus`> Apparently Chii thinks that threatening people is a way to show you want to have sex with them. *he frowns*
* Chad`Winters leans against the wall, his eyes closed.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hm. She must really want sex with you, Marcus.
<Marcus`> I know, right? Who'd blame her, really.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances at Marcus.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I can.
<Kit> <Chii> Who said I wanted to have sex with him?
<Kit> 6Chii gazes away, considering.
* Marcus` pulls his arms behind his head. "So Warren. You and Chad grunt your guy to death?
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grunts.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *shakes her head*
<Kit> <Freyja> Luckily we had Katrina.
<Marcus`> *Theron remains quiet, watching everyone.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina just raises a brow
<Cassandra`> We'll just have to wait and see.
<DeathStar> 6* The Vice President and Alexander Cran walk in, along with a General that they have never met.
<DeathStar> 6* Alexander Cran takes a seat, smiling at Chad.
<DeathStar> 6* The Vice President and the General sit.
* Chad`Winters keeps his eyes closed as he listens.
<DeathStar> <Vice President> We've been discussing the circumstances of the... *motions* Everything.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC sits quietly.
<Kit> 6Freyja raises her eyebrows and coughs. 1"Everything?"
<DeathStar> <Vice President> Since December.
<Kit> 6Freyja returns to being cheerful. 1"Oh!"
<DeathStar> <Vice President> Plus the fact is most of you are fine soldiers, and given the fact the Dark Ones' track record has been evil, and the fact you saved Earth from President Talon, well...
<DeathStar> <Vice President> Putting you in jail would just be a waste of resources, and a dishonor.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Thats' right, Jails no place for a super hero.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Super... hero...
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sighs.
* Cassandra` pinches the bridge of her nose.
* Angela fidgets a little.
<DeathStar> 6* The Vice President stares, then continues.
<DeathStar> <Vice President> The fact is most of you in this room are the experts in the field of the Dark Ones, and now that we've basically kicked them out our door, there's a chance they're going to come back as our enemie.s And with the war with the Tsivrixsh continuing, we cannot afford that
<Angela> * Darce grins, liking where this is going.
<Kit> <Megumi> They have always been your enemies from my understanding..
<Chad`Winters> And so you want our help combatting the dark ones. 6He opens his eyes now.
<Cassandra`> Talk to the blue girl...where ever she is.
<Marcus`> No Chad. They want to sacrifice you too them, in an offer of good faith. *he makes a duh motion at Chad*
<DeathStar> <Vice President> Yes. I want General Warren Carmichael to lead a specialized task group who's goal is to eliminate any threat brought forth by the Dark Ones, in any form. We'll give you the resources, and the authority, to take any assignment you want, if you think it'll help us learn more about the DArk Ones.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pauses, shifting in his seat.
<Kit> <Chii> ...Sweet!
<Angela> "This is a bit more like it."
<DeathStar> <Alexander> This should allow you to move and intercept them. And their shapeshifting allies.
<Chad`Winters> That's the trade-off than. 6He glances at Warren, than over at Alexander.
<Kit> <Freyja> A very dangerous task.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...working for the military again? Well, it beats being shot by them."
<DeathStar> <Vice President> Now, all of you have a very colorful history, so I'm not sure if all, or if any, of you want to join the military be part of this task force.
<DeathStar> <Vice President> But we could use your help.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien rubs his cheek as he listens
<Kit> 6Freyja grins wider.
<Chad`Winters> And those that choose not to, what are the consequences?
* Angela sits back and looks deep in thought.
<Marcus`> <Theron> Would I be allowed to join without being part of your military? *he finally speaks up*
<Kit> 6Chii turns to Cheryl. 1"...Do I need to join the armed forces?"
<Kit> 6Megumi squeezes at Erevis' hand.
<DeathStar> <Vice President> Well, let me address Mr. Winters first.
<Marcus`> *Theron nods, going quiet.
* Chad`Winters clicks his tongue.
<DeathStar> <Vice President> If you don't want to join the task force, you can choose to walk away from the entire business, or if you want, we can reassign you elsewhere in the military that is more suited to you
<DeathStar> <Alexander> As for not joining the military and being part of the group. *he speaks up* While certain people think it would be unwise, liability and all that, as long as Warren Carmichael himself is willing to task responsibility for your actions, then we agree.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren just eyes Marcus and Dias.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias stands there, eyeing a booger on his finger
* Angela leans over, looking towards Erevis.
* Marcus` seems to be eyeing some dirt under his nails.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is looking at the table, her hand touching Megumi's. Tingling sensation.
* Chad`Winters studies Alexander, his head tilting slightly.
<DeathStar> 6* Alexander mimics the gesture somewhat.
<DeathStar> <Vice President> We'll step out and let you decide. Just give us a list of names before you leave.
<DeathStar> 6* The three men rise.
<Kit> 6Chii whispers behind her hand to Cheryl. 1"If .. he takes... responsibility? Ahaha.. I'm screwed."
<Marcus`> <Theron> And what about my question.
<DeathStar> <Alexander> I didn't address it adequately?
<Marcus`> <Theron> Ah forgive me. I misunderstood who it was directed at. *he bows his head*
<Kit> <Chii> Don't the soldiers get paid? What about the non-signees like Theron?
<DeathStar> <Alexander> Volunteer work
<DeathStar> 6* Alexander smiles.
<Kit> <Chii> Son of a b--
* Angela giggles a little.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Can I resume my normal misbegotten ways to pay my bills?
<DeathStar> <Vice President> I think it best we leave before I am informed what that means
<DeathStar> 6* The three men step out
* Chad`Winters grinds his teeth slightly. 1"That son of a bitch..."
<Kit> <Freyja> Who was the third man?
* Angela shakes her head. "So... we have two things to worry about at the moment, the Dark Ones and Legion."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *looks at Chad* Hm.
<Kit> <Megumi> No leads to Asmodeus or Legion from them, so still square one.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren raises a hand. "Before that."
<DeathStar> <Warren> We've all been through hell for the past several months. Who wants to be in a task force to fight the Dark Ones? This means continuing to risk yourself continually. If you want to live a normal life, or pick a quiet military job and raise a family, this would be the time.
<Kit> <Freyja> Discounting that if they or the Tsivirixh strike, let alone in unison, 'quiet military life' probably does not exist?
<Cassandra`> Setsuna?
<Marcus`> Yeah it would be nice, but I'd get too bored.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> And here I thought you wanted retirement.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well I still have a promise to maintain so you can count me in on the ass kicking part.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "You think we could manage a quiet life?"
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC looks over at Warren. 1"Do you still require my talents?"
* Angela crosses her arms and remains quiet, waiting for others to decide.
<DeathStar> <Warren> If you still want to be part of this.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien has clearly made up his mind, and leans back in his seat.
* Marcus` just smiles at Kat. "I might just like to complain."
<Cassandra`> I'll let it be up to you...can we?
<Kit> <Chii> I like my new friends..." 6She pauses. 1"But volunteer?!"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Well, I'm in. Sign me up, Warren.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Hmmm. I am not used to choosing such things for myself. 6She tilts her head thinking.
* Angela keeps looking at Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis keeps peering at the table. She appears to have reached a decision, but has not voiced it.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...I do not imagine beloved wishes to bound to a unit.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...don't think the universe would let us."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will not be joining the unit. 6* She says finally, after Megumi says this.'
<DeathStar> 6* Warren raises a brow, but doesn't say anything.
* Angela nods a little, apparently still waiting.
<Kit> 6Chii gapes at Cheryl, then stands and gestures at Warren. 1"Would you ...stand me..?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes Chii.
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... *waves his hand* Fine.
<Kit> 6Freyja gazes along Chii and Cheryl, then eyes Katrina. 1"Will you be staying?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks at the table, troubled.
<Cassandra`> Then we're in.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm not joining either. I think I'll like to play investigator for a while longer. There's a few answers I'm still seeking.
<Angela> Darce> "I volunteer to help out, I can't join another Military."
<Kit> 6Chii clenches her hands. 1"Woo! ...Just pay me in ammo or something. If I'm not making any money I don't know how I'll get what I need to make my equipment.."
<Marcus`> <Theron> Like Mr. Darce. I too Volunteer my services.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'll decline the offer to join.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks up.
<Angela> "I will not be joining."
<Kit> <Freyja> Mm, I thought perhaps, but then, there are always surprises.
<Marcus`> Whoa. You're not joining Kat?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina shakes her head, closing her eyes and smiling. "I think it's best if I go back to doing what I do best. And that's not fighting some evil race."
* Marcus` frowns and glances up. "Yeah. I guess so."
<Kit> <Chii> Aw man... you're ..leaving, Kat?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> No Kat? Man that'll be a bummer.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'll be sure to keep in touch with you guys. And offer my counseling services if you come see me.
<DeathStar> 6 *Katrina opens her eyes.
<Kit> 6Chii frowns and pouts, but nods.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I believe. 6She scratches her head. 1"I believe I do not like choosing. So I will do what I normally do and fight."
* Marcus` goes quiet, shifting his eyes to the ground now.
<Kit> 6Freyja smiles at Katrina, then gazes at Warren. 1"I believe I'll volunteer, but not for 'active duty' so to speak."
<DeathStar> <Warren> Who says I'd spot you? 6* He asks Freyja dully.
<Cassandra`> ...Setsuna...what about Billy?
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna pauses.
<Kit> <Freyja> I never asked you to." 6Grin. 1"Someone needs to make sure you guys don't fall to pieces, however, and there's a few of you I'd like to keep my eyes on. I'm just not sure I'm up for being shot too many more times."
<Kit> <Freyja> On the offhand, it's not like I would refuse helping if, say, the planet were about to be scorched, though.
* Marcus` looks up finally and glances at Warren. "Do I have to go through boot camp?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> *looks at Marcus* You would join the military to join this group?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Can I just use a fake ID?
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...what do you want to do, Cass?"
<Cassandra`> ...I'm not sure...
<Marcus`> It's worth it. *he says simply*
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... Then I'll spot you.
* Angela sits back and listens, since she's already said her decision.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren glances at Chad, then simply nods.
* Marcus` just nods once, crosses his arms and places his left ankle on his knee, he stares up above anyone's line of sight.
* Chad`Winters nods back to Warren.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Arakawa. Asahi. It's you two that's left.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks at them.
<Cassandra`> ...we're debating now...Billy...is the issue.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren nods. "Then I will ask you again after you speak to Billy."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren stands.
<Cassandra`> Thank you.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I guess we're all dismissed to do what we want.
<Kit> <Chii> So, the last time we bonded... You were focusing energy so I could create images of my weapons? If we practice more, we won't remain creating that that generic-looking unarmed thing, right Cheryl?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> The Gear itself will always look the same.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Sorry.
<Marcus`> *Theron stands and then looks around at them all.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren walks out to the room with the kids.
<Cassandra`> Let's head home.
* Chad`Winters moves with WArren.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands. "I guess I'll go find Ariel at the Arakawa residence."
<Angela> * Jenn is busy occupying herself with a book, glancing up at Aya occasionally to make sure she's okay.
<Kit> 6Chii headtilts. 1"No, no. I mean, the first time we did it, it had a bunch of weapons but it desynced quickly and you passed out... There's nothin' wrong with the gear thing."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> We'll see.
<Marcus`> <Theron> Please keep in touch if you decide not to join. *he says, to Cassandra*
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl shrugs. "Personally, I want to rest a week."
* Angela stands as well. "I'll come with you, Darien."
<Kit> <Chii> So if I wanted, I could make a whip for you, right?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> So you ready for the next chapter, Marcus?
* Cassandra` nods.
<Kit> 6Chii waves her hands. 1"That's cool. I'd like to work on unpoisoning myself, too."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> We'll talk about neeeext week. Drunken debachary this week!
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl seems to be trying to remain chipper, but past events are still weighing on her
<Kit> <Chii> Awesome.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis rises.
* Marcus` stands up, and adjust his hoodie. "Yeah. I think I am." He glances at Dias. "Come'on let's go be kids for a while longer."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks at Jennifer. "I'm enrolling you in school."
<Kit> 6Freyja follows to the room with the 'kids.'
* Chad`Winters slams the door shut behind him.
<Angela> Jennifer> "Cool... here in Tokyo?"
<Kit> 6Megumi rises with Erevis. 1"Where will we go?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not know.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks up at Chad.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... *she glances to the side, hesitant* I do not know anything anymore. 6* She just walks out. Probably to go be homeless.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *rubs her head* "Never simple, is it?"
<Chad`Winters> Sorry for taking so long. 6He kneels down infront of her.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy colors on the walls of the Presidential Building
<DeathStar> <Aya> You goin' to jail?
<Angela> Jennifer> "See Aya, tol' you he'd be back."
<DeathStar> <Warren> Yes.
<Cassandra`> No...let's go collect our daughter.
<Chad`Winters> Not this time. 6He smiles.
<DeathStar> <Aya> *squints* So now what?
<Angela> * Jennifer smiles at Warren. "Alright."
<Kit> 6Lilith peers at Raquel, then shifts to human form, matching her age. 1"...It seems the decision has passed."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren peers at Lilith and Raquel.
<Angela> * Jennifer hops up and puts the book down. "After the last three months... school sounds like a vacation."
<DeathStar> <Warren> Well. I guess you two are free to do whatever you want now.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> As long as you buy first rounds. 6He looks at Cheryl. 1"How bout it, care to drink with us?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *crosses her arms* Fine.
<Kit> 6Chii moves away slightly, gazing at the two.
<Marcus`> You can even bring Chii Chii along. We might find her a good lookin man.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy turns to peer at Cassandra and Setsuna. "So. You guys back in the army?"
<Kit> 6Chii twitches ever-so-slightly.
<Marcus`> I mean. If she wants us too, right?
<Cassandra`> We're going to think about it.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *puts an arm around Chii* Bah. Who needs men and their limp penises?
<Kit> <Lilith> ..." 6Looks back to Raquel.
<Angela> * Darce heads out on his own to go find some fellow Atleans and take care of some business.
<Chad`Winters> We'll stay in Tokyo for awhile. 6He nods over at Jen. 1"You two get along?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> *looks at Jen, then at Chad, and shrugs8
<DeathStar> <Warren> Come on, Jennifer. Lets see if they burned down my house
<DeathStar> *apartment
<DeathStar> 6* Warren moves to walk out
<Marcus`> Oh ho ho ho. Now she's going to be getting ideas Cheryl. *he smiles, and then glances at Kat* You gonna come, too?
<Kit> 6Chii blinks at Cheryl. 1"..." 6She grins.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina shakes her head. "No."
<Angela> Jennifer> "Sure!" *she heads after him*
<Chad`Winters> Think you'd want to try school too? 6He stands up now.
<Marcus`> Fine. Be a square then. *he makes a face at her, then smiles*
<Angela> * Jen stops and turns, "See you later Aya?"
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Word travels fast it seems."
<DeathStar> <Aya> ... 1st grade..?
<DeathStar> <Billy> I'm just smart.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at Kat. 1"You sure?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya shrugs at Jennifer, not knowing
<Ariel> Raquel> "I wonder... what will happen now?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yeah. Have fun, boys.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina winks and moves on out
<Angela> Jen> "Well... hope to see you later." *she smiles and heads after Warren again*
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Well, that wasn't being debated."
<Kit> <Lilith> The world will continue to turn. I believe he was saying we are not obligated to follow.
<Cassandra`> LEt's go home and be a family.
* Marcus` stretches his arms out. "Alright folks. Let's go get drunk."
<DeathStar> <Billy> *stares, peering at them* You guys totally chickened out and didn't decide.
* Chad`Winters let's out a puff of air. 1"No, you'd be starting as a freshman."
<DeathStar> <Aya> Really? *she looks nervous, but then nods* Kay.
<Cassandra`> More or less.
<Chad`Winters> I'll help get you upto speed, how's that sound?
<DeathStar> 6* Billy snorts.
<DeathStar> <Aya> *nods*
<Cassandra`> What do you want, Billy?
<DeathStar> <Billy> *shrugs* I don't care what you two do.
<Ariel> Raquel> *leans against Lilith and ponders*
* Marcus` leads the group out two one of his and Dias' old haunts.
<Chad`Winters> And I figure I should start teaching you self-defense too. 6He glances down at her now.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien moves to locate Ariel.
<Cassandra`> You're our daughter...
<DeathStar> <Aya> Really? Miss. Erevis said she would not teach me anything else.
<Kit> <Lilith> I am afraid I have no suggestions, Lady Raquel. Although there is no pressing reason to pursure them, you will likely never gain another chance to relate to Sir Dias or the remaining Weapon if you part.
* Ariel is sitting in the living room, near the window.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks up behind Ariel. "So. Judgement was passed. None of us are going to jail. Warren's leading a new Dark Ones Elimination Task Force."
<Ariel> Raquel> "...I've given up on Dias. But..."
* Angela , having been searching with him, stays back when they find her.
* Ariel nods slowly.
* Chad`Winters smirks. 1"I figured she was the one who taught you that throw move. He smirks at her. 1"Come on, let's get somethign to eat."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya follows Chad.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I declined to join personally, though if you wanted...you know...to join, Warren would be thrilled, I'm sure.
<Chad`Winters> What are you in the mood for?
<Kit> <Megumi> Is there any place you would like to go, beloved? Even if the circumstances were different? Perhaps it would be best if we left this planet. Legion would surely have a harder time disrupting it and us if we created a larger distance.
<DeathStar> <Billy> *wags her finger* I'm a child, and so, you guys should do what you want. Besides. I'm quite self-sufficent.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I thought we were going to the bar...
<Ariel> "...I want to get my hands on Legion."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, Legion is a Dark One.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks up at the sky. "I believe I will stay in this city."
<Kit> 6Megumi giggles.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien moves to sit next to Ariel, cupping his hands together
<Marcus`> Don't tell me you forgot about that bar we used to go too.
<Angela> * Jennifer moves along with Warren quietly.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You know how many bars I've gone too?
<Marcus`> The one where we met those triplets. Come'on dude, you have to remember that.
* Ariel eyes Darien. "...you're going off to do your own thing again, aren't you?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Right, this coming from the guy who looks down at a threesome with sisters.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'll be here in Tokyo, actually. *rubs his chin* You know me. I can't drop the future thing.
<Marcus`> Oh touche.
<DeathStar> <Darien> There's answers I want, and only Erevis can give them to me. So I'm sticking to her.
* Ariel nods slowly.
* Marcus` whistles, then glances at Dias. "Then pick a place. Smart Ass."
<Cassandra`> We'll talk it over then...come on.
<DeathStar> <Darien> She didn't join Warren's group, and so I'm not, either.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy nods, holding up both her hands, one for Cass, one for Setsuna.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances back at Cheryl. 1"How shit faced do you want to be?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Pretty. 6* She seems tired now, without an enemy to kill, to rip apart.
<DeathStar> <Darien> *looks at Ariel*
* Cassandra` takes Billy's hand.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Osagi's Katana it is. 6He turns down a street.
<Kit> <Chii> Eh, you want that rocket fuel stuff." 6Squints.
<Marcus`> Oh wait. The one...oh man I forgot about hat place.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It works best.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *takes Billy's hand* "So... what do normal families do?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Anyway, we should probably go back to my house. If you want to.
<Cassandra`> Dinner together.
<Kit> <Lilith> I am complacent with whatever you decide, Lady Raquel.
<Ariel> Raquel> "I..." *looks at Lilith* "...is there anyhting you would prefer?"
* Angela listens to the two talking quietly.
* Ariel nods, "That... sounds right."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien holds out his hand. "Come on. Even if you join Warren and hunt down Legion, and I stalk Erevis and beat her for info, who says we can't be together on our off time?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias opens the door to Osagi's Katana and moves in. He let's out a loud whistle, the Bartender whistles back.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> 4 Osagi bombs to start with. 6The bartender pours out for shots for the group.
* Marcus` smiles widely. "I missed this place."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'm surprised you remember it. 6He moves upto the counter and hands out the shots.
<Kit> <Lilith> Your happiness is my preference. Neither choice presents a greater amount over the other.
* Angela crosses her arms and watches Ariel.
* X1 has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Ariel lets Darien help her up. "...you'll let me know if you hear anything regarding Legion, won't you?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Of course. I'll tell you anything I find. Everything.
<Marcus`> Well...I only remember this part.
<DeathStar> 6* The HoloVid begins to play a live broadcast from the Vice President. Cheryl looks up
<Marcus`> The. Before the Osagi Bomb part.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances up. 1"Yeah these things'll strip paint off a shuttle hull."
* Marcus` idley glances up at it as well.
<DeathStar> <Vice President> Greetings, people of EarthGov. 6* He addresses them. "While I cannot go into full details at the moment about the circumstances surrounding what happened over the past few months, I would like to tell you what I can, because I believe that's what the people need. The truth."
<Kit> <Chii> ...I want something that won't rearrange my innards.
<Ariel> Raquel> "...I want to track down my family. Going with Carmichael is the best way to do this..." *looks at Lilith, but says no more*
<Marcus`> Oh quit being a wimp, Chii. *he waves at her, still watching the president*
<Marcus`> NRP: VP.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> If you cant' drink those kind of drinks, than you're not good enough for Cheryl.
<Kit> <Lilith> Then we shall.
<DeathStar> <Vice President> President Talon has been impeached from office, and I'm currently the Acting President. However, given our recent problems with Presidents, conspiracies, and wars, I feel the people's faith in this current adminstration has been strained. Which is why I'm doing something impromptu. I'll hold the office of President through the year, and while I am doing so, new candidates will begin running for office
<Kit> 6Chii idly snatches at Marcus' waving hand, putting a unique twist on one of his fingers while eyeing the holovid herself.
<DeathStar> <Vice President> So that you, the people, can have a President you voted in at the end of the year. And one you can trust. This will be a shakey time, but hopefully as we change the hands of government, things will go smoothly, and we will not face casualities in our war with the Tsivrixsh. I will not be taking any questions at this time. Thank you
* Marcus` lets out a whistle. Though not at Chii. "Come on, Chii Chii. You don't hold hands until you start dating."
<DeathStar> 6* He steps down, moving past Alexander Cran, who was standing there in the background
* Angela has turned away, looking out a window while Ariel and Darien have a touching moment.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Why do I get a shudder in my back. 6* She snears at Alexander.
<Marcus`> Cause he's supposed to be dead?
* Chad`Winters glances up as he walks with Aya, his eyes narrowing on the holovid
<Kit> <Chii> He looks intelligent. 1"Stares coldly. 1"The worst kind of manipulator.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Anyways. Here here. 6He raises his shotglass.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yeah. Dear ol' clone pa.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren narrows his eyes at his enemy.
<DeathStar> 6* A car parked in his way.
* Marcus` lifts up his shot glass. "Here's to kicking ass and taking names. Cause you know. That's what we do."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl lifts the shot glass.
<Kit> <Freyja> I still wish to know of the third man. Was he not a general? Someone you know, Warren?
<DeathStar> 6* WArren left long, long ago
<Kit> 6Chii raises an empty glass since... she's not sure she got something.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances at Angela, giving her a smile of warmth, and moves to lead Ariel out the door.

* Now talking in #LeftOverGroup
* Chad`Winters has joined #LeftOverGroup
* Ariel has joined #LeftOverGroup
* Jennifer` has joined #LeftOverGroup
* Marcus` has joined #LeftOverGroup
* Kit has joined #LeftOverGroup
* Ariel has left #LeftOverGroup
* Jennifer` is now known as Angela
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs. "She probably needs alone time."
<Angela> "Yeah I guess."
<Kit> <Megumi> She always required copious amounts.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<Angela> "Meh."
<DeathStar> 6* An officer walks in and sits without a word.
<Angela> * Angela looks at the officer quietly.
<Kit> 6Megumi fails to open her eyes, uttering. 1"Greetings."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at the man.
* Chad`Winters glances up at the officer. She stands up now, moving her hands behind her back
<DeathStar> <Officer> *cups his hands together* So, why'd you all turn traitors?
<Chad`Winters> NRP: SPoC
<Kit> <Megumi> Traitor...? Does that not imply I was alligned with Earth originally and then turned against its interests?
<Angela> * Angela just keeps eyeing the officer.
<DeathStar> <Officer> So you're a foreign enemy?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares.
<Kit> <Megumi> Does enemy not imply I am against your ideals?
<DeathStar> <Officer> You were part of a group that attacked our military
<Kit> <Megumi> I have defended myself and my allies when necessary.
<DeathStar> <Officer> So you confess to being an enemy of EarthGov.
<Kit> <Megumi> Confess would require my agreement on your flawed thoughts.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans back in his seat, whistling
<Angela> * Angela remains quiet as well, letting Megumi do whatever she pleases.
<DeathStar> <Officer> I think you better start telling me what you were all up to, or you could face the rest of your life in jail.
<Kit> 6Megumi uncrosses her arms and rubs her forehead. 1"I began being a combatant against Earth's enemies long before I came to this planet and I have never had the intention of harming it or its occupants. I fail to see where I have become an enemy or traitor."
<Kit> <Megumi> But then, enemies of Earth are not necessarily always apparent.
<Angela> * Angela watches Meg's poor attempt at deflections.
<DeathStar> <Officer> Do you know how many innocent people you all left dead?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Pardon me. But we were in L.A.
<DeathStar> 6* The officer pauses. "L.A.?"
<Angela> Angela> "Yes, we weren't with Warren's group until a recent incident at our home."
<DeathStar> <Officer> So you had nothing to do with this?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Except for the incident 2 days ago, no.
<DeathStar> <Officer> Then none of you killed innocent soldiers?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien refuses to glance at anyone. "None of us,."
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I did not kill anyone, no.
<DeathStar> 6* The officer looks at SPoC. "And you were in L.A?"
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> No I was not.
<DeathStar> <Officer> But the rest of you were.
<Kit> <Megumi> Yes, among other places.
<Angela> "By other places she refers to Erusia."
<Kit> <Megumi> Off-planet locales, yes.
<DeathStar> <Officer> I see.
<DeathStar> <Officer> *looks at SPoC* Can YOU tell me what happened, then?
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> No I can not. My memory is not that great sadly.
<DeathStar> <Officer> ... *sighs* Fair enogh
<Angela> "If I may, from what I have heard the efforts of Talon and one of his cohorts, Scar, led to most of the violence."
<DeathStar> <Officer> *nods and gets up* Thank you for your time.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC nods politely to the officer.
<DeathStar> 6* He leaves
* Angela nods quietly and sits back.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... *taps the table*
* Angela looks down at her lap, eyes unfocused.
<DeathStar> <Darien> So...who thinks we're boned?
<Angela> "I wouldn't discount it."
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I am unsure of myself, but the odds are that you guys will be fine.
<Kit> <Megumi> I will not allow anything to become of any of us.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is quiet. Darien peers at her again
<DeathStar> <Darien> Your hair appears different.
<Angela> "She cut it again."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh. Good. It was ridiculously long.
* Angela doesn't look up, eye for detail when it comes to fashion sense.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans back,, looking mody.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I will accept whatever comes from this.
* Angela plays at her pony tail, her hair having nearly been as long as Ere's.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis runs her hand through her hair, playing with the white streak
<Angela> "Think mine would look better shorter Darien?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> The longer it gets, the easier it is to fuck you up in a fight.
<DeathStar> <Darien> *glances at her* Mid-back would be fine.
<Angela> "If we get out of this I'll see a stylist."
<DeathStar> <Darien> *looks at Megumi* Take her, too
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC eye's the three girls long hair then pulls her shoulder length hair to her face, eyeing it.
<Angela> "Oh sure, we'll make it a girl's night. Ere, you're coming, we've got to neaten up that cut."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .....
<Angela> "Why the look?"
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Mister Starr believes my hair is a problem? That is why I tie it..
<DeathStar> <Erevis> *shakes her head* Seeing a stylist seems a waste of time.
<Angela> "A waste of time???"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I agree. A combat knife works just as efficiently if not faster.
<Angela> "But... the uneven cut, the split ends... you'll ruin such fine hair..."
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> My hair is not uneven.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I cut straight.
<Angela> "It's hard to notice to the untrained eye, but it's there."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis shakes her head. "We have more important things than my hair."
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> My eye's are better trained in combat than worrying about my hair.
* Angela pouts.

* Logging #taw to 'logs\EsperNet\#taw.20080203.log'
<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-588.3.25
<DeathStar> Location: Tokyo
* Angela is now known as Jennifer
* Jennifer is now known as Jennifer`
<DeathStar> 6* It's a bright, sunny day. Perfect for going to high school.
* Jennifer` walks along beside Warren, toying at the front of her uniform.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren walks along, dead panned, wondering why his daughter needs him to come with her to school. I mean, she can handle Legion, right?
* Dias` stands at the entrance to the school grounds, a pair of sunglasses on. He eyes his datapad as he waits for the two to arrive.
<Jennifer`> "They said I needed to bring a parent along to get enrolled. Something about adults posing as students..."
<DeathStar> <Warren> I handled the paperwork already. 6* He reminds her. He's not stupid. He did that ahead of time.
* Dias` is now known as Chad`Winters
* Jennifer` shrugs, she only follows orders.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren rolls his eyes and pops a pill.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks around, holding Chad's free hand.
<Chad`Winters> So you excited? 6He looks down at her.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya shakes her head, peering about. She gets odd looks, for holding onto Chad's hand like she was a kid.
* Jennifer` looks at Dias as they enter the school.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: It was Chad not Dias you smuck
<Jennifer`> NRP: I saw no correction!
<DeathStar> 6* Warren steps onto the school grounds
* Jennifer` looks at Chad then, then at Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Cedarton watches from his window, peering down at Aya and Jennifer.
* Jennifer` smiles to Aya, "Hey!"
* Chad`Winters grunts at Warren as he steps in.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks at Jen, then at Chad.
* Chad`Winters nods to Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren just looks at Chad.
<Kit> 6A presence lingers up to Warren, apparently trailing along the wall invisible to those on the other side spying. 1"...This is a high school? I... I expected more." 6Chii's voice. 1"...I'm not sure what. Just-- more."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sighs.
* Jennifer` looks at Chii, blinking a bit. "She's coming too?"
* Chad`Winters glances over at the voice, his hand sliding towards his hip briefly before it stops.
<DeathStar> <Warren> No.
<Kit> <Chii> No." 6She crosses her arms. She's not wearing the kunoichi outfit, but a modern business attire instead. Who knows who convinced her that much.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pops another pill.
* Chad`Winters looks at Jen. 1"Tell your father he's not that fat."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sneers.
* Jennifer` messes with her hair a bit. "I ummm... what?" *looks at Warren, then back at Chad*
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares at everyone quietly.
<Kit> <Chii> I'm just out for another set of drinks, of course, but I heard the kids were on a mission. This explains a bit.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes Chii. It's a look that says "Go away now"
<Kit> 6Chii passes this up for a chance to lean around the wall, narrowing her eyes up to a certain person on the second floor.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren begins to pull his gun out, on school grounds.
* Jennifer` fixes her uniform a bit more, wondering why girls uniforms are so damn impractical.
* Chad`Winters glances at Warren, but makes no move to stop him.
* Jennifer` of course, seems numbed to the prospect of her father pulling a weapon on Chii anywhere.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Uh... 6* She eyes the gun.
* Jennifer` looks up. "Dad... I don't think here's a good place..."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren holsters the gun for now. Reluctantly.
<Kit> 6Chii slinks back behind the wall. 1"Well, good luck with that. The guy in charge gives me the shivers."
<DeathStar> 6* Cedarton sips green tea.
<Chad`Winters> You should use a knife instead Warren, it's quieter.
<Jennifer`> "Will probably draw less attention too..." *looks around a bit nervously*
<DeathStar> 6* The kids are already staring
<Kit> <Chii> Such a morbid lot. I can feel the family love coming off your auras. Totally.
<Chad`Winters> I don't recall asking your opinion. 6He glances over at Chii now.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks at Chad, as if wondering if he was serious
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks at the school, crossing his arms. "Go pass your grades."
<Kit> <Chii> I don't recall asking for your permission either.
* Jackieness has left #taw
<Kit> 6Chii grins at Chad, then waves a hand. 1"In any case. Ganbatane and all that, Jennifer."
* Chad`Winters doesn't grin back, his expression neutral.
* Jennifer` rocks her feet a little. "I think we need to check with the main office to get enrolled?" Eager to see them move on and prevent a shooting occuring on her first day, that's for second days.
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... did I not say I handled that already?
<Jennifer`> "You did... I was thinking Aya."
* Jennifer` looks at her, then at Chad.
<DeathStar> <Warren> That's Winters deal.
<Jennifer`> "R-Right..."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya peers at Jennifer with a Chad like expression
<Kit> <Chii> It took her a few days to master the fan trick." 6Moves on past the group and down the lane, pausing momentarily to pawn an MP3 player off a kid for a smokescreen charge.
Session Close: Mon Feb 04 00:00:00 2008

Session Start: Mon Feb 04 00:00:00 2008
Session Ident: #taw
* Jennifer` eyes Aya being completely poker faced.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren watches Chii.
<Jennifer`> "Something wrong?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya says nothing. She's her father's daughter.
<Kit> 6Chii dons the earpieces and wanders out of sight on the alcohol run.
<Jennifer`> "Alright... well I got my schedule yesterday." She seems to be trying to figure out why she was told to bring Warren along now.
* Chad`Winters glances at Warren. 1"I hope you have the short bus lined up to pick your daughter up after school."
* Jennifer` narrows her eyes at Chad. "I'm lost, not dumb."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren crosses his arms. "I hope you have an armed committee to prevent yours from being kidnapped."
<Chad`Winters> Only 3 snipers.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Hrmph.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren seems unimpressed
* Jennifer` looks around, apparently deeply disinterested in standing there now.
<Chad`Winters> Well, we should head in than.
<DeathStar> <Aya> *peers at Chad, then nods* Kay.
* Jennifer` rolls her eyes and leads the charge inside. Fixing her skirt.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren turns and walks off.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stands her ground as Jennifer goes completely inside, then she walks for the building
* Chad`Winters follows after Aya, his hands behind his back now.
* Jennifer` is waiting for them when they get inside, not terribly shocked when Warren isn't with them.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya wonders how he did that.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya steps inside, glancing around the lobby, then peers at Jennifer, wondering why she's there.
<Jennifer`> "I'll show you to the office... it's a little off to the side."
<DeathStar> <Aya> ... my dad is with me.
<Jennifer`> "Fine..."
* Jennifer` turns and heads down the hall.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares at her, then looks at Chad. "She's strange. Why does she hang around me so much?"
<Chad`Winters> I assume she wants to be friends. She doesn't know anyone her age and all she really had these last 3 months has been Warren.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Oh. 6* She chews on that.
<Chad`Winters> Well we should get everything finalized at the office than. 6He heads towards it
<DeathStar> 6* Aya peers around at the various students going to classes, playing with her skirt. "But none of our friends are here." 6* She notes, referring to Erevis' group.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya follows along.
<Chad`Winters> They're too old to be in school.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Oh.
<Chad`Winters> Megumi could pass for being 15.
<DeathStar> <Aya> But she's old?
<Chad`Winters> Think dog years.
<DeathStar> <Aya> So she's... 6* She tilts her head, thinking. "105?"
<Chad`Winters> I think she said 45 at one point. So I guess it's not exactly dog years, but it's like it.
<DeathStar> <Aya> So she's older than you? 6* She stares in disbelief
<Chad`Winters> I know, it's hard to tell.
<DeathStar> <Aya> She acts like me. 6* She considers.
<Chad`Winters> You're far more mature.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya smiles. "And I'm only three."
<Chad`Winters> Exactly. 6He nods proudly
<DeathStar> 6* Aya peers at the principal's office.
* Chad`Winters stops, then knocks on the door.
* Kuroichigo has joined #taw
* Kit is now known as Kitzzzune
<DeathStar> <Cedarton> Enter, Mr. Winters.
* Chad`Winters sighs slightly, then opens the door.
<DeathStar> 6* Cedarton sits behind his desk, sipping his green tea. He motions. "Have a seat, you and your daughter."
* Chad`Winters grabs a seat and sits
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sits down, smoothing her clothing nervously
<DeathStar> <Cedarton> *takes a deliberate sip of tea* So, Mr. Winters. I understand your daughter is a special case as far as the school system goes. We'll be giving her a few tests this weekend. See how she ranks. Make sure she can keep up with her fellow students."
<Chad`Winters> Understandable. And what subject will the tests cover?
<DeathStar> 6* Cedarton opens a folder and hands Chad a sheet of paper with every imaginable subject. It seems this school is thorough. In addition to being run by evil
* Chad`Winters takes the sheet, lifting his sun glasses so he can see it properly. 1"Thorough."
<DeathStar> <Cedarton> Education is important. By the way. 6* He shifts his tea down. "Who would we contact in case of an emergency and you're unreachable?"
<Chad`Winters> Warren Carmichael, then a relative named Cheryl.
<DeathStar> <Cedarton> *nods*
<Chad`Winters> Anything else?
<DeathStar> <Cedarton> No. I think that's fine. 6* He stands, looking at Aya. "If you would follow me, Miss. Winters, I will take you to your class."
* Chad`Winters stands up himself now.
<DeathStar> <Cedarton> *he places a hand on Aya's shoulder* We'll take good care of her, Mr. Winters 6* He steers her off toward the class Jennifer is in. Coincidence? Probably not
* Jennifer` meanwhile is for all anyone can tell, paying close attention.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya is given a seat next to Jen
* Jennifer` looks over and smiles to her, the previous exchange behind her.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya gives an awkward wave. What has begun? Who knows.
