09[20:02] <@Jennifer> -SESSION START-
09[20:02] <@Jennifer> Date: Unknown, Reality Day 15
09[20:02] <@Jennifer> Location: ? ? ? ?
09[20:02] <@Jennifer> * The flash of lightning, the glint of a knife. A single loud, blood curdling scream. Another flash, a body slumps against the wall. He looks up, another flash, more figures in the dark. He closes his eyes, the blood pools out. The knife drops, footsteps as someone runs.
09[20:02] <@Jennifer> <Voice> "HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!"
09[20:02] <@Jennifer> * Muffled noises, the lights go on.
13[20:02] * Pasting finished after 10 seconds
09[20:03] <13@Jennifer> * The team finds themselves in an office room of some sort, a mass of confusion occurs as the room is a bit too cramped for the whole team, Jennifer twists and knocks into Dias, barreling him over onto something wet and warm.
[20:04] <13@Xanatos> 6* Kane seems to be pressed up against the wall by someone, making a face.
[20:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl glances around, trying to orient herself. "Where the hell are we?"
[20:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks at Kane. "I didn't think you wanted to touch me there."
[20:04] <13Dias`> 6Dias peers around. 1"...This is awkward feeling."
15[20:04] * 13@Xanatos glances to see where exactly he's touching.
09[20:04] <13@Jennifer> * Dias looks into the face of a black man under him, drenched in blood and slowly going cold.
[20:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* X makes a face.
03[20:04] * Xanatos is now known as Kane
[20:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Her breasts
[20:05] <13Kit> <Tsukiyomi> Awkward feeling.
[20:05] <13Dias`> <Dias> I...Uh oh. 6He quickly gets up.
[20:05] <13Kit> <Tsukiyomi> Awwwkward.
15[20:05] * 13@Kane gets red in the face instantly tries to pull his hands away, glancing upward.
[20:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks at Tsukiyomi. "Your hand is on my butt."
15[20:05] * 13@Jennifer reaches out and points. "I think there's a door somewhere."
[20:05] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> OF course there's a door somewhere
[20:05] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi tilts her head at X. 1"Butt."
[20:05] <13Dias`> <Dias> Yeah, we should leave. There's a dead guy here.
[20:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Dias. "Did you kill him?"
[20:06] <13Kit> <Chii> I bet he did.
09[20:06] <13@Jennifer> "No... I mean there!" *she points out the door, at that moment, sirens sound outside it*
[20:06] <13Dias`> <Dias> I'm not the crazy one who throws grenades at people!
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Sounds like cops. Lets go
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl moves forward to open the door and peer out
09[20:07] <13@Jennifer> * Outside is a hallway... filled to the brim with police officers, lawyers, and a few bewildered people.
[20:07] <13@Kane> ...
[20:07] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> There a window?
[20:07] <13Dias`> 6Dias eyes his hands than starts wiping the blood off on the walls.
[20:07] <13Kit> <Chii> ...Ninja vanish." 6She throws down a smoke bomb.
[20:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon begins to cough
15[20:07] * 13@Kane begins to cough as well.
09[20:08] <13@Jennifer> * The smoke fills the room quickly, there's a window just above the body and pool of blood.
[20:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* X tries to open a ripple to the outside
09[20:08] <13@Jennifer> * Cold air blows through the ripple.
[20:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* X moves through it
[20:08] <13Dias`> <Dias> Ripple it is. 6He turns to move through it himself now
[20:08] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel heads through the ripple, to get away from the smoke that's choking them all.
09[20:09] <13@Jennifer> * There's a lot of air out there since they're outside the 36th floor of a building.
15[20:09] * 13@Kane lets out a breath when they get a bit more room and move to peer out the ripple, jerking to pull his head back in.
[20:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* X balances herself on the edge, peering downward
[20:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* X goes to open a second ripple to fall through to the ground
[20:09] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel scrambles to grab something, so she doesn't go splat.
[20:09] <13Dias`> <Dias> Awww crap. 6He starts to fall.
[20:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl opens the window and peers out
[20:10] <13@Kane> ...we're much to high. Hopefully X will get a ripple to us before too long.
09[20:10] <13@Jennifer> * They are happy to find a lege out there, it's a big gothic style office building.
[20:10] <13Dias`> 6Dias grabs the ledge as he falls and he hangs there.
15[20:10] * 13@Jennifer frowns from inside as Police start to move towards the doorway, guns raised.
[20:10] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel opens a ripple under Dias, that leads to the ground.
[20:11] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Riddle me this. Why is every reality a pain in my ass
09[20:11] <13@Jennifer> "Because we're just that lucky."
[20:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* X goes through her ripple to get to the bottom, unless told otherwise it didn't open
09[20:12] <13@Jennifer> * Seh can get through to the bottom, however down tehre are even more police, looking a little surprised at the ripple... they're in front of a police building of some sort.
09[20:12] <13@Jennifer> * She
[20:12] <13Dias`> 6Dias eyes down. 1"Huh...I think I'll just hang here all day.
15[20:13] * 13@Jennifer crosses her arms, remaining with Cheryl for now.
[20:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes the police, then begins to peer about, calculating where to open another ripple.
[20:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl climbs out onto the edge now
[20:13] <13Dias`> 6Dias looks up at Cheryl. 1"Too bad you aren't wearing your skirt right now."
[20:14] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'll let X know you're disappointed
09[20:14] <13@Jennifer> * There's wet, rainy streets all about, the police are pulling out guns.
15[20:14] * 13@Jennifer follows after Cheryl just as police burst into the room, she eeks as she narrowly avoids a gunshot.
[20:14] <13Dias`> <Dias> You do that. 6He glances down. 1"Crap, X needs some help."
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes the police, looking unimpressed
[20:15] <13Dias`> <Dias> X DON'T DO ANYTHING!
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Could always leap through the ripple down there, I guess
[20:15] <13Dias`> <Dias> ...Oh yeah. 6He swings and leaps through it.
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon leaps out herself now, trying to balance
09[20:15] <13@Jennifer> * Besides the police nothing looks overly impressive about the forces slowly surrounding her. This is an otherwise average 22nd century city.
[20:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* X peers to see how far back the police go, so she can open a ripple behind them
[20:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl drops through as well to land by Dias
[20:16] <13Dias`> 6Dias appears beside X?
09[20:16] <13@Jennifer> * Half the block.
15[20:17] * 13@Jennifer drops through after Cheryl.
[20:17] <13Dias`> 6Dias eyes all the cops. 1"Wow, that's a lot of police officers."
09[20:17] <13@Jennifer> * Anyone remaining in the office would find themselves at gunpoint with about 5 police officers.
[20:17] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel just remains on the ledge for the moment. Easier to make sure no one falls and goes splat without worrying about falling to her own death.
[20:18] <13@DeathStar> <X> I can reach behind them with a ripple.
[20:18] <13Dias`> 6Dias leans close to her. 1"You think it's wise?"
[20:18] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> That or we have to pull out now
[20:19] <13Dias`> <Dias> I'll give us a diversion. But we'll have to move fast. 6He slowly reaches his hand behind his back.
15[20:19] * 13@Jennifer looks around, the cops begin to open safeties. When someone speaks up. "Everyone relax. They haven't been deterimined criminals yet."
[20:19] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> What do you mean diversion?
[20:19] <13Kit> 6Lilith growls at officers beside X-- though in malamute form. Chii seems to have actually performed her ninja vanish.
[20:19] <13Kit> <Key> Criminals!
[20:19] <13Dias`> <Dias> The same way I always create a diversion.
[20:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon leaps through a ripple to land on the ground
[20:20] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh, right, that instills me with a lot of faith
[20:20] <13Dias`> 6Dias shifts his hand slightly, a rubber ball in his hand
09[20:20] <13@Jennifer> * An officer holds out his hand and the police lower their weapons.
[20:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl nudges Dias to wait, eyeing the officer
[20:21] <13Dias`> 6Dias rolls the ball in his hand.
15[20:21] * 13@Kane moves through the ripple after Lemon.
09[20:21] <13@Jennifer> * The officer steps out to look them over. "We'd like to know how you got into the Prosecution Office without being detected and what you were doing there. I'm Officer Cameron, can I have your names?"
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ........
[20:22] <13Dias`> <Dias> Took a wrong turn.
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> <X> I don't think they will believe that.
[20:22] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi narrows her eyes at Cameron.
[20:22] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel looks around to make sure no one else is around, and unless she sees a stragler, she ripples herself to ground level.
[20:23] <13Dias`> <Dias> Took two wrong turns.
[20:23] <13@DeathStar> <X> .... You are broken
09[20:23] <13@Jennifer> * The officer is a tall, gangly sort of man, messy hair, wearing a uniform with some form of large rank on it. "Bounty Hunters maybe? We believe this crime was the work of a criminal mastermind. You should know better then to cross police jurisdiction."
[20:23] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> That's us. Hunters.
[20:24] <13Dias`> <Dias> Yeah, bounty hunters. Only the finest.
09[20:24] <13@Jennifer> Officer> "Stand down men. The witness said it was a single man that killed Prosecutor Paladin. This hardly looks like a single man."
[20:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon's eyes widen. "Paladin is lonely?"
[20:24] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...prosecutor Paladin?"
[20:25] <13Dias`> 6Dias lets out a sigh of relief. He makes the rubber ball disappear and he claps his hand together.
15[20:25] * 13@Kane tilts his head. 1Lonely?
09[20:25] <13@Jennifer> Officer> "We'd just cleaned up the crime scene. Oh well, we won't bother---"
[20:26] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hrm.
09[20:26] <13@Jennifer> Voice> "HOLD IT!"
[20:26] <13@DeathStar> <X> I think it's time to run
[20:26] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi throws out a hand and points. 1"Hold it!" 6She mimics.
09[20:26] <13@Jennifer> * Someone rushes through the crowd of police. He steps forward and eyes Dias, pointing at him. "Look at that man! Your name sir!"
[20:27] <13Dias`> 6Dias eyes the man pointing at him. 1"Johnny Appleseed."
[20:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rubs her face
[20:27] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi moves over and points at Cameron. 1"Your name, sir!"
[20:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon pauses, then points at someone, too
[20:27] <13Dias`> <Dias> And don't you know it's rude to point.
09[20:28] <13@Jennifer> * The man, very familair looking just not quite placeable eyes Dias up and down, he walks over to him, eyeing him carefully. He's in a large brown gumshoe coat and a wide brimmed hat.
09[20:28] <13@Jennifer> * Cameron stares at Tsuki.
[20:28] <13@DeathStar> <X> I think he likes you
[20:28] <13Dias`> <Dias> Cold pricklies...Cold pricklies. 6He eyes the man.
15[20:28] * 13@Kane silently glances at this new person like he's a moron.
09[20:29] <13@Jennifer> * In a flash the man somehow has himself handcuffed to Dias. "Got you at last Dias! And this crime scene at last proves it! I hereby arrest you on the charge of being Dias! Also... murder."
[20:29] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ....
[20:29] <13Dias`> 6Dias raises a brow. 1"Dias? Who's Dias? And what the hell do you think you're doing? 6He eyes the handcuffs on his hand
[20:30] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Well, Johnny, what do you have to say for yourself?
09[20:30] <13@Jennifer> * Cameron stares at the man. "Officer Darce... explain yourself."
[20:31] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi stands beside Cameron. 1"At last! Murder!"
[20:31] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Lemon, do you feel a crystal? 6* Lemon closes her eyes, trying to sense one
09[20:31] <13@Jennifer> Darce> "Gumshoe intuition sir, that and the victim had a card signed with his name in Paladin's blood sir. Also a picture of this man."
09[20:31] <13@Jennifer> * There is one, it doesn't seem too far away, but just far enough to not pinpoint yet.
[20:32] <13Dias`> 6Dias raises his free fist.
[20:32] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Look, this guy is innocent, and we want to be on our way.
09[20:32] <13@Jennifer> Darce> "Arrest has been made Ma'am, we thank you for bringing the perp in though."
15[20:32] * 13@Jennifer rolls her eyes.
[20:33] <13Dias`> 6Dias goes to grab the man's wrist and twists to flip him onto his back.
09[20:33] <13@Jennifer> * Darce groans as he hits the flat of his back. Gun safties unclick again, but they're only pointing at Dias.
[20:34] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Nice, job. Now what do you plan to do?
[20:34] <13Dias`> 6Dias's head jerks up and he looks around. 1"What? He touched me in my naughty place. I'll point to a doll to show you where."
09[20:34] <13@Jennifer> * Cameron clears his throat. "Please don't make us charge resistance to arrest now. The system is very fast and clean, you know that."
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She does a head count of police
09[20:35] <13@Jennifer> * There's somewhat in the high 30s now, and more coming.
[20:35] <13Dias`> <Dias> Oh come on! He started it!
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Where the hell do they get all these people?
09[20:35] <13@Jennifer> Darce> "...I want hazard pay..."
09[20:35] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "...You're in front of a police station, ma'am. It's a big city."
[20:35] <13Dias`> <Dias> I want a beer.
[20:36] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Dias, just let them take you. We'll pull you out later after we get what we came for
[20:36] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...when you go and handcuff someone like that, when they've done nothing wrong, and don't even give them warning... you're asking for it."
[20:36] <13Dias`> <Dias> You're ditching me?!
[20:36] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You afraid?
[20:36] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...honestly... that sounds illegal itself." *ponders*
[20:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks back and forth
[20:36] <13@Kane> You will be fine in the 'joint', Dias.
[20:36] <13Kit> <Key> Joint.
[20:36] <13Dias`> <Dias> Nah. 6He looks over at X. 1"Kiss for good luck?"
[20:36] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> What's a joint?
09[20:36] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "Mmm, his trial is at 7 AM tomorrow."
[20:37] <13@DeathStar> <X> They might arrest me for kissing a criminal
[20:37] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Excuse me?
09[20:37] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "...What? That's pretty late."
[20:37] <13@Kane> Slang term for Prison.
[20:37] <13Dias`> <Dias> Doesn't it make me more attractive knowing you'll be kissing a criminal?
[20:37] <13@DeathStar> <X> No
[20:37] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... this reality is all shades of fucked up
[20:37] <13Dias`> <Dias> Aww man. 6He scuffs his feet along the the ground
09[20:38] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "There seems to be some kind of confusion. If you feel this man is innocent, you can always get him a good lawyer."
[20:38] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...maybe we should just skip this one."
[20:38] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Psch
[20:38] <13@Kane> It is doubtful we could afford a lawyer.
[20:38] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> As if I'd get him one
[20:38] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi seems to grow tired of trying to assimilate these people's tongue and walks over. 1"Want crab."
[20:38] <13Dias`> <Dias> What?! 6He looks at Cheryl, clearly looking hurt
09[20:39] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "They're cheap. With three day limits on trials, it's best to have one."
[20:39] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> We're going to rescue you in a few hours anyway; I'm not going to waste time getting a lawyer.
[20:39] <13Dias`> <Dias> Do I get congical visits? 6He looks over at Cameron
09[20:40] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "No. Take him inside."
[20:40] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> What's that word mean? 6* She looks at Kane
09[20:40] <13@Jennifer> * Some police move to take Dias, someone helping up Darce who's still laying there.
[20:40] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Alright, so we'll find the crystal, then we leave.
[20:40] <13Dias`> <Dias> I already hate this. 6He hrmps as he's taken
[20:41] <13@Kane> Hmm. They give people time to have sex. Like if X wanted to have sex with Dias while he is in jail.
[20:41] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> Oh.
[20:41] <13@DeathStar> <X> ... as if I'd do such a thing
09[20:41] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "Dunno what you folks are looking for if it's not a bounty. But we can assign him a public lawyer if you'd like."
[20:41] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Eh.
[20:41] <13@Kane> Will it cost us anything?
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl looks around now, trying to decide what direction to look
09[20:42] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "It's recommended. If he's found guilty of murder the execution will be carried out an hour after his trial."
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She eyes Cameron now.
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Execution?
09[20:42] <13@Jennifer> * Cameron looks at her like she's crazy. "...You all foriegn?"
[20:43] <13Dias`> <Dias> Wait....As in...Kick the bucket, offed, pushing up daisies?
[20:43] <13@DeathStar> <X> I say we kill them all and run for it
[20:43] <13@Kane> Will it cost us anything? 6He repeats.
09[20:43] <13@Jennifer> Guard> "Yep."
[20:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* X lifts a hand
09[20:43] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "No... the lawyer is free."
[20:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* John finally steps out of the police building, eating a hotdog
09[20:44] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "Though we can't promise he's as good as a VonKarma or anything."
[20:44] <13@DeathStar> <John> Whassup, Dias?
[20:44] <13Dias`> <Dias> Oh the usual. Getting arrested for a crime I didn't commit.
[20:44] <13@DeathStar> <John> That sucks. This is a good hotdog.
15[20:44] * 13@Jennifer looks over at John. "Sensei... how did you do that?"
[20:44] <13Dias`> <Dias> Really? 6He tries to move over to John
[20:44] <13@DeathStar> <John> Do what? I appeared in a room by myself
09[20:45] <13@Jennifer> "Musta not noticed in the confusion." *she giggles*
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I guess we can get a lawyer to distract them while we find the crystal
09[20:45] <13@Jennifer> * Cameron pulls out a business card, handing it to Cheryl. "I like you people. Check out this guy's office, he should still be open."
[20:45] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...you.. don't like staying with the tour, do you?"
15[20:45] * 13@Kane nods once to Cheryl. Agreeing with her.
[20:46] <13Dias`> 6Dias opens his mouth for a bite of the hotdog
[20:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* John holds it out
09[20:46] <13@Jennifer> * Darce takes a bite of the hot dog. "Mmm good."
[20:46] <13Dias`> 6Dias goes to take a bite and he heads Darce. 1"You son of a bitch."
[20:46] <13Dias`> NRP: eyes
09[20:46] <13@Jennifer> Darce> "Come on you." *he tugs on Dias' handcuffs.
[20:47] <13@DeathStar> <John> IT was really good!
[20:47] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...isn't that theft?"
09[20:47] <13@Jennifer> Darce> "Criminals don't get hot dogs little missy."
[20:47] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Alright, lets split in two groups. Kane, you can go find the lawyer.
[20:47] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...so you can just take it without it being offered to you?"
[20:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl hands him the card
[20:48] <13Dias`> <Dias> I already don't like you
15[20:48] * 13@Kane takes it and peers at it. 1Hmm. I hope I can find a map.
09[20:48] <13@Jennifer> Darce> "Don't have to like me, fiedish criminal."
[20:48] <13Dias`> <Dias> Fiedish? Is that even a word?
09[20:48] <13@Jennifer> * Darce gulps down the last of the hotdog in his mouth. "Yes."
[20:49] <13Dias`> <Dias> Great, I'm being arrested by a moron
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Who wants to go with Kane?
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> <X> I'll go.
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon rocks; she'd like to, but knows she's on hunt duty
09[20:49] <13@Jennifer> * Darce tugs him along inside.
[20:49] <13Kit> <Chii> We got you surrounded!
[20:50] <13Dias`> 6Dias sighs as he's tugged along.
15[20:50] * 13@Jennifer looks at Lemon. "I'll go hunting."
15[20:50] * 13@Kane arches a brow, glancing towards X. She's the last person he expected to go. He nods shortly. 1X and I will meet up with you after hiring the lawyer.
[20:50] <13Kit> 6Chii shouts from either end of the officers that circled the area-- though it's obviously more than one voice, Cheryl should know she's never made more than four. She seems to be hiding to cover it up. 1"Let the albino go!"
[20:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes the Chiis, then Kane. "Right, good luck with that."
09[20:51] <13@Jennifer> * The police are looking around a bit confused.
09[20:51] <13@Jennifer> Cameron> "Oh well, good luck to you, I'm heading inside. I have a crime scene to reinvestigate."
15[20:51] * 13@Kane moves to walk away from the scene before Chii gets them all surrounded.
[20:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* John puts a hand to his chest. "Orgy?" 6* He eyes all the Chiis
[20:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl drags Lemon with her
[20:52] <13@Kane> NRP: er arrested.
[20:52] <13Kit> 6A lightning bolt strikes John. 1"Or you'll get it like him!"
15[20:52] * 13@Jennifer heads after Cheryl.
[20:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* John falls over, dead
09[20:52] <13@Jennifer> * The remaining police looks around and stare in shock, some actually book it, but half the crowd's dispersed already.
15[20:52] * 13@Jennifer blinks and runs over to John. "Damnit Chii!"
[20:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* X follows Kane.
[20:53] <13Kit> 6The Chiis murmur cohabitantly. 1"H-He'll live."
09[20:53] <13@Jennifer> * The name and address on the card are for "Starr Law Offices"
15[20:53] * 13@Jennifer checks John and starts to perform CPR.
15[20:54] * 13@Kane glances around as he walks, looking for anything that would lead him to Starr Law Offices. Specifically, a map.
[20:54] <13Kit> 6Four Chiis walk out from behind buildings, eyeing the cops book it and Dias already gone. She hangs her heads. 1"Damn it, no on takes me seriously anymore."
[20:54] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel heads after Cheryl, hoping they can find the crystal soon and get this over with
[20:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is revived by the kiss
15[20:54] * 13@Jennifer blushes and helps John up. "...You okay?"
[20:54] <13@DeathStar> <John> That Chii packs a punch. I'd love to see her in bed
09[20:55] <@Jennifer> -SCENE SHIFT-
09[20:55] <@Jennifer> * Arriving at Starr Law Offices, you're greeted by noneother then Samantha Hendricks, who bows politely and smiles. She's clad in very high class casual wear, trousers and a dark red blouse, her hair "Welcome to Starr Law. Here we guarantee victory in your trials. How can I help you?"
[20:55] <13Kit> 6Chii hrmphs, three going up in smoke, the last grumbling. 1"I bet I could waltz right in an deck the one with the keys and they'd just pinch my cheeks or something."
[20:55] <13@DeathStar> <X> ....
15[20:56] * 13@Kane clears his throat and holds the out the card.
09[20:56] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "...Is... everything--- oh." *she checks it* "Officer Cameron sent you! Please come in." *she ushers them past the waiting room towards an office*
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* X is ushered along
15[20:56] * 13@Kane moves along as well.
09[20:57] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Can I get you anything? Coffee? Tea?" *she stops in front of a door*
[20:57] <13Kit> <Tsukiyomi> Hold it!
09[20:57] <13@Jennifer> * Sam blinks and jerks to a halt, dramatically looking over at Tsuki. "Wh-What?"
[20:57] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi points at her, looking sternly. 1"You, your name sir!"
09[20:58] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Samantha Hendricks, and what's your name?"
15[20:58] * 13@Kane rubs his face. 1We need a lawyer.
[20:58] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi pauses-- at the end of her mimicry and stares, then tilts her head. 1"Tsukiyomi. Key."
[20:58] <13@DeathStar> <X> Dias is being arrested and executed for something he didn't do
09[20:59] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Nice to meet you all. Darien is right through this door." *she opens it, peeking in* "Darien! We've got customers!"
[21:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien glances up, his hair slicked back in a ridiculously anime manner. "C-Come in."
15[21:00] * 13@Kane moves to step in now, eyeing Darien oddly.
09[21:00] <13@Jennifer> * Sam lets them into the room.
[21:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes the scene, then looks at Kane. "I say we break him out."
[21:00] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi approaches Darien and points. 1"You, your name, sir!"
[21:00] <13@Kane> We will need to stall in any event. 6He tells X.
09[21:00] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Mr. Cameron referred us! I'll go check the trial ID he wrote in here."
[21:01] <13@Kane> Can you make her stop? 6He glances to X.
[21:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien jerks back at that, surprised, then sweat pours down his face. "I'm Darien Starr."
[21:01] <13@DeathStar> <X> She's having fun
[21:01] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi smiles, then nods. 1"Tsukiyomi!"
[21:01] <13@Kane> ...
[21:01] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Can you tell me what happened?
[21:02] <13@Kane> It would be a long story. One that you may not believe.
[21:02] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Well, I'm your lawyer, so it's important to have all the facts
[21:02] <13Kit> <Tsukiyomi> At last! Murder!" 6She says with a serious expression.
[21:02] <13@Kane> Our friend is accused of murder. But he's innocent.
[21:03] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Can you tell me what happened that would make the police think he was guilty?
[21:03] <13@Kane> They arrived to find him at the scene of the crime, with blood on him.
[21:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien reels again, then looks ill. "Why did he have blood on him?"
[21:04] <13@Kane> It was dark and he fell on the body.
[21:04] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> And why would he fall on the body?
[21:05] <13@Kane> Well when a person gets a loss of balance...gravity pulls them down.
[21:05] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> ...
09[21:05] <13@Jennifer> * Sam stumbles back in. "Darien, they scheduled the trial for 7 AM tomorrow morning."
[21:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien looks back up, then makes another ill face. "Oh..."
09[21:05] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "And ummm... well... you're not gonna like this..."
15[21:06] * 13@Kane peers up to Sam.
[21:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* X begins to work on escape plans
09[21:06] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "VonKarma is prosecuting."
[21:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien reels again, then begins to sweat profusely, making a face. "Him."
15[21:06] * 13@Kane tilts his head. 1You should see a doctor about your condition.
09[21:06] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "...No, worse. Her."
[21:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien staggers back and falls off his chair
[21:07] <13@Kane> ...
[21:07] <13@DeathStar> <X> If I ripple into the cell, we should be able to get him out
09[21:07] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "I-I'm sure we've got a chance though! If he's really innocent!"
[21:07] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Gravity says different!
09[21:08] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "You can do it Darien!"
[21:08] <13@Kane> ...a witness saw 1 person fleeing the scene. But we were all there with Dias, so he's innocent.
[21:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien sits back up, slicking back his hair. "Why were you in the room?"
[21:09] <13@Kane> We appeared there.
[21:09] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Oh.
[21:09] <13@Kane> We...aren't from around here.
[21:09] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Did you see anyone else?
[21:10] <13@Kane> I didn't. No. I'm not sure about my allies.
09[21:10] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "According to the report, it's Mister Paladin that was killed... a-and he died an hour before they were caught."
[21:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien narrows his eyes. "An hour. That proves their innocent!"
[21:10] <13@DeathStar> *they're
[21:10] <13@Kane> If they analayzed the blood on DS, they would see that it is old. 6He adds.
09[21:11] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Officer Darce insists that..." *she reads* "That honorless Dias was returning to the scene of the crime to plant evidence in his favor."
[21:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien makes that ill face again.
[21:11] <13@Kane> The Darce person seems like a tool.
[21:11] <13@DeathStar> <X> If we pose as visitors, I should be able to get close enough to do the ripple.
[21:12] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> It's Darce.
09[21:12] <13@Jennifer> * Sam waves her arms at X. "No no! Don't, we're attached now!"
[21:12] <13@Kane> I'll assume that means that he is infact a tool.
[21:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes her, clearly not caring
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> We need to take a look at the scene of the crime
09[21:13] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "We could probably get over there right now. If we hurry."
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien stands up.
09[21:13] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "...They'll close off the scene otherwise."
15[21:14] * 13@Kane nods once. 1We need to meet up with our allies. Can I trust you to handle the crimescene investigation?
[21:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien makes that ill face again. "Alone?"
[21:14] <13@Kane> ....
09[21:14] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Darien's good at investigating things! Don't you worry."
[21:14] <13@Kane> I'll come with you.
09[21:14] <13@Jennifer> * Sam frowns, her cover failed.
[21:14] <13Kit> 6Lilith assumes her human form, opening her eyes. 1"Mistress, might I suggest analyzing the murder site from my vantage?
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> <X> Okay, Lilith
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien jerks. "That dog turned into a woman!"
[21:15] <13Kit> <Lilith> I may be able to find another scent to follow.
[21:15] <13@Kane> Yes.
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> <X> It's worth a try.
[21:15] <13Kit> <Tsukiyomi> Lilith puppy!" 6She claps.
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> .... 6* He moves over and pokes Lilith's chest
[21:15] <13@Kane> I wouldn't touch her there.
09[21:15] <13@Jennifer> * Sam frowns and looks at Lilith jealously.
[21:15] <13Kit> 6Lilith makes a face. 1"..Not.. a.." 6She jerks, then glares and rears back, clearly going to uppercut Darien over his desk.
[21:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien sails
[21:16] <13@Kane> .....
09[21:16] <13@Jennifer> * Sam facefaults, she didn't even swing, she bawls and rushes over the hug Darien.
[21:16] <13@DeathStar> <X> I can touch her there if I Wanted. I don't. 6* She notes, prideful
15[21:16] * 13@Kane eyes X, then glances to Sam. 1Is he dead?
[21:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien looks disoriented, as if he sees stars
09[21:17] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "He's alive" *sniffles* "Let's go."
09[21:17] <13@Jennifer> * Sam leads him out.
[21:17] <13@Kane> ...fine.
09[21:18] <13@Jennifer> -SCENE SHIFT-
09[21:18] <13@Jennifer> Location: Jail
09[21:19] <13@Jennifer> * Dias is left in a large jail cell with only a bed and someone else, a very large man who stares at him.
[21:19] <13Dias`> 6Dias bounces on the bed. 1"Springy."
09[21:19] <13@Jennifer> Bubba> "What're you in for?"
[21:19] <13Dias`> <Dias> For looking too good.
09[21:20] <13@Jennifer> Bubba> "I'll say stranger." *he sits by Dias* "So what's your name?"
[21:20] <13Dias`> <Dias> Winston Marshall. 6He keeps bouncing on the bed.
09[21:20] <13@Jennifer> Bubba> "Well Winston, I think we're gonna be good friends."
09[21:20] <13@Jennifer> -SCENE SHIFT-
09[21:21] <13@Jennifer> Location: The streets.
09[21:21] <13@Jennifer> * Lemon has been homing in on the crystal for some time now, when something odd happens, it starts moving.
[21:21] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> It's moving.
[21:21] <13Kit> <Chii> Figures.
[21:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rubs her face. John eats another hotdog
09[21:22] <13@Jennifer> "...Moving? It's not another person is it?"
[21:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon follows the crystal
09[21:22] <13@Jennifer> * It's moving... back towards the way they came.
[21:23] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...it's starting to seem like ours is the only reality that's not."
09[21:23] <13@Jennifer> "Well there was the volcano one..."
[21:23] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Are you going back the way we came? ... 6* She looks in the sky now
15[21:23] * 13@Jennifer looks around, eyeing a hot dog vendor.
09[21:23] <13@Jennifer> "I think so."
[21:24] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> If it's in the sewers in a rat, I'm going to get pissed
09[21:24] <13@Jennifer> -SCENE SHIFT-
09[21:24] <@Jennifer> -SCENE SHIFT-
09[21:24] <@Jennifer> Timeline: Reality Day 15, 12:00 AM
09[21:24] <@Jennifer> Location: Paladin's Office, Prosecutor's Building
09[21:24] <@Jennifer> * The scene is as horrible as the day before. Paladin's location is outlined with tape now, but the blood hasn't been cleared and the crime scene has been left for the team to investigate. It seems Dias was let go to be allowed to assist them in clearing his name.
15[21:25] * 13@Kane peers at Dias, then glances around to see if there are any guards watching them.
[21:25] <13@DeathStar> <X> Well, lets ripple out with Dias
[21:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the wall for clue
15[21:26] * 13@Kane peers around the room silently, searching for something out of ordinary.
09[21:26] <13@Jennifer> * The wall is covered in blood.
[21:26] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> This looks suspicious. Who's hand could this be?
[21:26] <13Kit> 6Lilith sniffs around, trying to find something besides Paladin and the group.
15[21:27] * 13@Kane glances at the wall. 1Hand?
[21:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* X talks to her imaginary Dias
09[21:27] <13@Jennifer> * The office includes a potted plant, a chair and desk.
[21:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien points at how a hand was wiped on the wall - a hand that was covered IN BLOOD
[21:27] <13Dias`> 6The imaginary Dias talks back, hitting on her.
09[21:27] <13@Jennifer> * There are many scents in the room since the police were in there earlier. Though oddly there's another familair scent that Lilith just can't quite place, really bad cologne.
09[21:28] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "That mark must belong to the real murderer!"
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> That's what I'm thinking
[21:28] <13@Kane> Yes. Lets see if we can aquire a fingerprint. 6He gets closer to peer at it.
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> <X> It's Dias'
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien reels, then makes that ill face again
15[21:28] * 13@Kane pauses and glances at X. 1Is it? Hmm.
09[21:28] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "That's not good! It's more evidence against him! Should we hide it?"
[21:29] <13@DeathStar> <X> He wiped his hands on the wall
[21:29] <13Kit> 6Lilith starts to follow it, scrunching her nose at the cologne.
[21:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien moves the plant in front of it
09[21:29] <13@Jennifer> * it leads out the door and towards the elevator.
[21:29] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi walks around idly, glancing from place to place.
[21:29] <13@Kane> .....
[21:30] <13@Kane> You should not tamper with the crime scene.
[21:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien makes an ill face. "But if they see it, your friend is doomed."
09[21:30] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "There doesn't seem to be much here at all."
[21:30] <13@Kane> If you tamper with the evidence the whole case could be thrown out and he would be doomed anyhow. You are a bad lawyer.
[21:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien reels at that
09[21:31] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "H-He's not bad! He just... hasn't had a lot of practicve, he's won 100% of his cases though!"
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien slumps, his ego crushed now
[21:31] <13Kit> <Tsukiyomi> One-hundred percent!
[21:31] <13@Kane> ....how many cases has he had?
09[21:31] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Yeah, all four!"
[21:31] <13Kit> <Key> All four!
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> <X> ... so if I ripple into the cell.
15[21:31] * 13@Kane mouths four and then just nods. 1Fair enough. 6He moves around to look the desk over for a clue.
09[21:31] <13@Jennifer> * Sam waves her arms, "Dooooon't!"
09[21:32] <13@Jennifer> * Meanwhile, the search party arrives... at the police station.
[21:32] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi points after Lilith who's heading to the elevator. 1"This looks suspicious, what could it be!?"
09[21:32] <13@Jennifer> * The eleavator stands there suspiciously.
[21:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes the building, having searched the vendor against his will
15[21:33] * 13@Kane glances up to Sam waving her arms, and then looks back to the desk.
[21:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* X turns and follows Lilith
09[21:33] <13@Jennifer> It's a cheap desk with only one drawer in it.
09[21:33] <13@Jennifer> * Sam follows X to keep an eye on her.
[21:34] <13Kit> <Chii> I'm sensing a pattern. You, Cherry?
[21:34] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> The pattern of being dicked around?
15[21:34] * 13@Kane pulls on a pair of gloves and slowly pulls out the drawer to check the contents inside.
09[21:34] <13@Jennifer> * Lemon feels a dreadful feeling, it's up high in that building, like in Tartarus!
[21:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks up. "It's on one of the higher floors."
[21:34] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> It's most dreadful
09[21:35] <13@Jennifer> * The elevator door opens suspiciously.
[21:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers up.
09[21:35] <13@Jennifer> "Great... we don't have to fight our way up this time right?"
[21:35] <13Kit> <Chii> I wish.
[21:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl shrugs and steps into the building
[21:35] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You wish you were being dicked around?
09[21:36] <13@Jennifer> * The elevator is fileld with that horrid stench, and the smell of blood.
[21:36] <13Kit> <Chii> ...That we have to fight up..
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> 6 *X makes a face
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Shame. I'd have dicked you around if you wanted
[21:36] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi cringes.
15[21:36] * 13@Jennifer frowns as she gets on the elevator. "Where are we going?"
09[21:36] <13@Jennifer> * Sam
15[21:37] * 13@Kane glances up to see everyone leave, he glances to see if Darien is still there.
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien is searching the plant
09[21:37] <13@Jennifer> * And for kane, since the GM missed a line...
09[21:37] <13@Jennifer> * Inside his drawer are a bunch of perfectly sharpened, even pencils, a rule, and a small blue card.
09[21:37] <13@Jennifer> * The plant is suspiciously clean of clues.
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> <X> Lilith, where do we go from here?
[21:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* X inspects the elevator
09[21:38] <13@Jennifer> * The elevator indicated it's the top floor.
[21:38] <13Kit> 6Lilith huffs, then shakes her head. She pauses, then pads to the buttons and sniffs for cologne.
15[21:38] * 13@Kane checks the blue card carefully. 1I am sure you're a very conpetant lawyer. 6He seems to be making small talk.
09[21:38] <13@Jennifer> * Ground floor button.
[21:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* X scratches her back
[21:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien just looks ego crushed still, as he inspects the chair
[21:38] <13Kit> 6Lilith noses the ground floor. Key walks over and scratches Lilith with X.
09[21:38] <13@Jennifer> * The blue card has the logo and address of a hotel on it.
[21:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* X hits the ground floor button
[21:39] <13@Kane> This Hotel. Do you know where it is? 6He holds up the card towards Darien.
[21:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien looks at it, peering it over. "I can find it."
09[21:39] <13@Jennifer> * The door closes and the elevator starts to go down, the search party, if going all the way inside, find teh way to the elevators clear.
[21:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl hits the button to get the elevator
[21:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien looks at the window, then peers out, pointing. "That should be it."
09[21:40] <13@Jennifer> * The elevator door opens for the search party.
15[21:40] * 13@Kane nods. 1We should give this room a once over and make sure we haven't missed anything. Then find this hotel.
[21:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers into said elevator
15[21:40] * 13@Kane pauses and glances out the window. 1I see.
09[21:40] <13@Jennifer> *it's empty, the one next to it indicates it's heading down.
[21:40] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Is the crystal coming down, Lemon?
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon pauses, then checks
09[21:41] <13@Jennifer> * It's slowly moving downwards.
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> Yes
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl nods to the others. "Get ready to nab and grab, everyone."
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* John nods, tensing up
15[21:41] * 13@Jennifer gets ready.
09[21:42] <13@Jennifer> * The elevator door opens and... X, Tsuki, Lilith, and Sammael are on board.
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> .... Is the crystal in front of us, Lemon?
[21:42] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi points. 1"Hold it!"
[21:42] <13Kit> 6Lilith moves out and continues following cologne scent.
15[21:42] * 13@Kane looks over the room very carefully, very methodically for any remaining clues.
09[21:42] <13@Jennifer> * The scent is leading outside.
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon checks
[21:42] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel looks confused.
09[21:42] <13@Jennifer> * The crystal is indeed in front of her.
[21:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon nods. Cheryl reaches forward and grabs Sammael, and begins to pat her down
09[21:43] <13@Jennifer> * Sammale blinks, looking up at Cheryl. "E-Excuse me... miss..."
[21:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* John whistles at the sight
[21:43] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi eyes Cheryl frisking Sammael. 1"This is suspicious!"
[21:43] <13Kit> <Chii> H-Hey!
[21:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* X stares, then tries to follow Lilith
09[21:43] <13@Jennifer> * Lilith is lead outside towards a hotel.
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Help me see if it's on her, Chii. If it's in her, I'm quitting
09[21:44] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "H-Hey! What are you doing?"
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl checks Sammael's clothing and pockets
[21:44] <13Kit> <Chii> Tch, yeah. I'm not reaching in her." 6She moves over and helps Cheryl dismantle Sammael's clothing.
09[21:44] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "RAPE!"
09[21:44] <13@Jennifer> * Cops begin to look up.
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* John ptus his hand over Sam's mouth
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... 6* He hits a floor button
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien finishes, and moves to take the elevator down to check the hotel
[21:45] <13Kit> <Tsukiyomi> Rape!
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl checks her chest for necklaces
15[21:45] * 13@Kane walks with Darien, having had him place the card in an evidence bag, just incase.
[21:45] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel rubs her head.
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* John whistles a bit, looking casual as the elevator goes up
[21:46] <13Kit> 6Lilith troops on.
09[21:46] <13@Jennifer> * The elevator door closes and they start to go up, at the same time, Lemon starts to feel the crystal heading down towards them again, but the crystal in front of them at the same time. Sam squirms and whimpers.
09[21:47] <13@Jennifer> * The scent leads right into a hotel, where a bellboy looks down disapprovingly at Lilith.
[21:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl clicks her tongue as she searches. "It's not on her from what I Can tell." 6* She checks her hair
[21:48] <13Kit> 6Lilith looks up at the Bellboy-- being an oversized malamute, she doesn't look too far, probably. She growls.
[21:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes the Bellboy. "Room."
09[21:48] <13@Jennifer> * Sam squirms, looking embarrassed as they find nothing. "Wh-What are you doing..."
[21:48] <13Kit> <Chii> Looking for a crystal.
09[21:48] <13@Jennifer> Bellboy> "I'm sorry, but no pets allowed ma'am."
09[21:49] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "I-I don't have any crystals..."
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> 6 *Cheryl slams her fist into the wall. "It's in her."
15[21:49] * 13@Kane silently waits for the elevator to arrive for them.
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes the doors open and stares at Kane and Darien
[21:49] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *winces*
[21:49] <13Kit> 6Lilith reverts to human form. 1"I have a master, but I am no pet."
09[21:49] <13@Jennifer> * The elevator for Dariena and Xan opens.
15[21:49] * 13@Kane pauses and tilts his head. 1Was I taking too long?
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* John waves at Kane. "We found it."
[21:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien moves forward. "Are you okay, Sammael?"
15[21:50] * 13@Jennifer looks thoroughly abused and hugs onto Darien half naked, crying. "They raped me!"
09[21:50] <13@Jennifer> * SAM
[21:50] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> What?!
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> <X> Let us into a room now
15[21:51] * 13@Kane arches a brow, eyeing Sam. 1That's doubtful.
09[21:51] <13@Jennifer> * Sam whimpers a bit, looking accusingly at them.
[21:51] <13Kit> <Chii> Did not, or she wouldn't be crying, that's for sure.
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> <John> Oh snap, give me a high five.
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* John holds out his hand to Chii
15[21:51] * 13@Jennifer rolls her eyes. "They were just looking for... nevermind. No one will believe that."
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> The crystal's in her.
[21:51] <13Kit> 6Chii eyes John, then sighs and high-fives him.
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* John grins a bit now
09[21:52] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "D-Did you find anything Darien?"
[21:52] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> A hotel card.
09[21:52] <13@Jennifer> Sam> *perks up, as though forgetting what happened* "A clue! Let's go check it out!"
[21:52] <13@Kane> So the crystal was not on her person? 6He asks them. 1Do you think it is...6He trails off.
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rubs her face, clearly thinking. "Since it's in her, and I don't see her having any evil beings in her, I say we cut our losses and go."
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien nods
[21:53] <13@Kane> We will need to get Dias. Won't we?
09[21:53] <13@Jennifer> "Eh... maybe there's another way to get it out of her?"
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> I can tap into his device and pull him along with us. It is designed not to be removed except by the person wearing it
04[21:54] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You want to fuck her and see if an orgasm brings it out, JennifeR?
09[21:54] <13@Jennifer> "Leave her here like this and the other Dias will kill her..."
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl clicks her tongue that
09[21:54] <13@Jennifer> * Jennifer blushes though.
[21:55] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...death seemed to be about the only way to retrieve the other ones..."
09[21:55] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Let's get going, maybe you can finally win a real case Darien."
[21:55] <13@DeathStar> <John> I'd be glad to see if I can bring it out of her. One for the team.
[21:55] <13Kit> <Chii> Eh, Dawn lived, didn't he? But this is a different matter.
[21:55] <13@Kane> If Lilith could pinpoint it. Perhaps we can do a type fo surgery.
[21:55] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Wait, win a REAL case? What the hell?
[21:55] <13@Kane> NRP: Lemon.
09[21:55] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "...Oh... did I not mention we've never done a murder case before...?"
[21:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Sam, then Lemon. "We're going."
[21:56] <13@Kane> It was fun playing lawyer. 6He notes.
04[21:56] <13@DeathStar> <John> Jennifer, use the puppy dog eyes on her.
09[21:56] <13@Jennifer> "Cheryl..." *she blinks* "I think I have an idea of what might work."
[21:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl points. "NO. No. We're not going to win a case."
09[21:57] <13@Jennifer> "But... Dias is innocent, so it's not like it's hopeless."
[21:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon watches the two
[21:57] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... did you see those two? Did you HEAR those two? Do you know what EXECUTION is?
[21:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien slumps, ego crushed again
09[21:58] <13@Jennifer> "Yeah but, if we lose we can always leave then before it happens."
[21:58] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ...6* She eyes Tsuki, as if expecting save point
[21:58] <13@Kane> At least I would be able to wear a suit without getting odd looks.
09[21:58] <13@Jennifer> "Best case we get a crystal, worse case we waste... 8 hours maybe?"
[21:59] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Fine. Whatever. Eight hours could be eighty years for Ben. But fine. We'll play lawyer
[21:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl hits the ground floor button
15[21:59] * 13@Jennifer flinches and looks down.
[21:59] <13@Kane> Wearing a suit isn't worth losing a child. 6He says with a frown.
[21:59] <13@DeathStar> <John> She knows how to cut low when she's pissed
09[22:00] <13@Jennifer> * At the hotel, X is finally starting to intimidate the bellhop into getting them a room.
[22:00] <13@Kane> She is female. 6He notes to John.
[22:00] <13@DeathStar> <X> Give me a room. 6* She repeats blandly.
09[22:00] <13@Jennifer> Bellhop> "Fine fine..." *he gets her the keycard*
[22:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* X takes it
09[22:00] <13@Jennifer> * They reach the ground floor, Jen still looking down.
09[22:01] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "So let's check out this hotel. It's the one across the street right?"
[22:01] <13@Kane> Yes.
[22:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks along, not talking, teeth clinched. Lemon hangs her head, trying not to be noticed. And John is eating a hotdog
09[22:02] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Oh the Hotel de Nemense! It's got a big casino!"
[22:02] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Perhaps someone was gambling too much and was murdered.
[22:02] <13Kit> 6Lilith reverts to malamute and continues following the trail like nothing happened.
[22:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* X peers at Lilith, then follows
[22:03] <13@Kane> Money is a strong reason to kill someone.
09[22:03] <13@Jennifer> * Jenn walks along behind John. They reach the hotel in time to see X and Lilith pausing in front of another elevator.
09[22:04] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Now we have motive, but who?"
[22:04] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Someone with money to loser
[22:04] <13@DeathStar> *lose
[22:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks over to Lilith and X. "What do you have?"
09[22:04] <13@Jennifer> * The elevator door opens for them, same smell still!
[22:04] <13@Kane> If this Paladin was in debt. Chances are, a loan shark was involved. If he couldn't not pay his debt, they would have killed him.
[22:05] <13Kit> <Chii> Why? If someone's dead they can't make money.
[22:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* X explains
[22:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl, John, Lemon, and X get onto the elevator
[22:05] <13Kit> 6Lilith snoops the buttons again
[22:05] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel steps onto the elevator
15[22:05] * 13@Jennifer gets onot the elevator, as does Sam, who drags Darien.
[22:06] <13@Kane> First they do things to the person to try and scare them into getting their money. If that doesn't work, they usually kill them. I've seen it before.
04[22:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* DUe to Jennifer's position of standing, it makes it seem like Raquel has two arms for a moment.
09[22:06] <13@Jennifer> Jenn> "Raquel? Did you grow another... nevermind."
[22:07] <13Kit> 6Lilith turns and bites Jenn.
09[22:07] <13@Jennifer> * The top floor has the scent... but the button is locked!
15[22:07] * 13@Jennifer whimpers in pain. "H-hey!"
[22:07] <13Kit> 6Lilith narrows her eyes up at Jen.
09[22:08] <13@Jennifer> "S-Sorry."
04[22:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes Jennifer darkly, too
15[22:08] * 13@Kane clears his throat. 1Why are we on this elevaotr, again?
[22:08] <13@Kane> NRP: elevator*
09[22:08] <13@Jennifer> "Didn't mean anything by it... g-gomen."
[22:08] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> She smells blood.
[22:08] <13@Kane> Right.
09[22:08] <13@Jennifer> * The top button is one of those you need a special key to make active, probably a provate floor.
04[22:09] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *eyes Jennifer bitterly*
[22:09] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> What floor, Lilith?
09[22:09] <13@Jennifer> * Jennifer looks away from Raquel in shame.
[22:09] <13Kit> 6Lilith nudges the locked button
[22:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes it. "If we go to the floor under it, I can ripple to it."
[22:10] <13Kit> 6Lilith pushes the next closest floor with her nose.
[22:11] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> We should ask the clerk who owns that floor, too
[22:11] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Someone with money
[22:11] <13@Kane> Possibly.
09[22:11] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Yeah, good way to get some clues, maybe the casino owner?"
[22:11] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> We should talk to him
09[22:12] <13@Jennifer> * The elevator moves up to the second to highest floor and the door opens.
[22:12] <13@Kane> You should. 6He tells them.
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl, X, Lemon, and John step off. X measures the height of the floor, then opens a ripple
15[22:13] * 13@Kane glances around to see who will be the test dummy with Dias not around.
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... ... John, through you go
09[22:13] <13@Jennifer> * Sam looks around the floor suspiciously.
[22:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pauses, then steps through the ripple
[22:14] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...I suppose we need a substitute Dias."
09[22:14] <13@Jennifer> * John steps out into a really happening pad!
[22:14] <13@DeathStar> <John> This is really happening
09[22:14] <13@Jennifer> * THe room is a large penthouse apartment with a fantastic view of the city. Large leather couches, a huge holovid, and expensive bottles of booze all over.
15[22:15] * 13@Kane glances left, then right, then moves to step through now.
[22:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl pokes a hand through, eyes it, then moves in; Lemon and X follow
09[22:15] <13@Jennifer> * Sam stares at the ripple suspiciously.
15[22:15] * 13@Jennifer hops on through.
[22:15] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel steps through now that it seems to be safe.
[22:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* John begins to look for clues
15[22:17] * 13@Kane eyes the others, and doesn't even bother to pull his gloves on as he moves around looking for a clue.
[22:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl will give Kane a clue
09[22:17] <13@Jennifer> * A search takes a while, but as the whole team looks around, they find just what they're looking for in a cabinet. A large, wicked looking knife.
[22:18] <13@Kane> Hmm. It's a shame we can't use this. 6He notes.
[22:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes it
[22:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien gathers evidence
09[22:18] <13@Jennifer> "Well... we have a murder weapon. That oughta win us a trail."
09[22:19] <13@Jennifer> *trial
[22:19] <13@Kane> We can't use this.
[22:20] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Warren would roll in his grave if he saw us doing this
[22:20] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "......"
15[22:20] * 13@Jennifer frowns a bit.
[22:21] <13@Kane> Do I have to say that we can't use this again?
[22:21] <13@DeathStar> <John> We heard you the first time you said it, thanks
[22:21] <13@Kane> Good. I don't enjoy being ignored.
09[22:22] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "Let's get outta here... we can find out who owns this place downstairs!"
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Pretty sure my comment was in regards to your comment, pal
[22:22] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel looks to the lawyers, since they'd know the laws in this reality.
[22:22] <13@Ariel> 6* ...Raquel hopes.
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Yes. We must learn who owns this floor
09[22:22] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "...It's okay, we're retrieving evidence."
[22:22] <13@Kane> Oh? 6He glances to Cheryl. 1My apologies. I don't know your Warren.
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl's already moved off to look at other things, clearly not caring to talk
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks at Kane. "He was Benjamin's father."
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien nods in agreement with Sam
15[22:24] * 13@Jennifer looks down, she seems ashamed and conflicted.
[22:24] <13@Kane> Yes. I don't know him personally.
[22:24] <13Kit> <Chii> Wouldn't it have been easier to just point out Dias doesn't use knives?
09[22:24] <13@Jennifer> Sam> "I'll get the door!"
09[22:24] <13@Jennifer> "I don't think that excuse would even fly in our courts."
[22:24] <13Kit> <Chii> We're not in our courts.
[22:24] <13@DeathStar> <X> Then I'd make the judge fly. Out aw indow
[22:25] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> Should we leave now?
09[22:26] <13@Jennifer> "Yeah, let's get out of here before we get in more trouble."
15[22:27] * 13@Kane glances around slightly, then moves for the door.
[22:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon and X go to follow, with John drinking some booze
[22:27] <13Kit> 6Lilith assumes human form-- and confiscates a bottle from Tsukiyomi.
09[22:28] <13@Jennifer> * They exit the hotel without difficulty.
[22:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* X gets some for Tsuki later
09[22:28] <@Jennifer> * Now Darien has the surprise evidence he needs to turn this case about and prove who the real killer is... it'll all be decided tomorrow.

09[22:29] <@Jennifer> Location: Court Lobby outside Courtroom 2A
09[22:29] <@Jennifer> * As the team arrives in the court lobby, having been asked to meet up. Samantha is waiting for them outside the door, she smiles in greeting and waves to everyone. Dias is also present having been brought for the trial, two guards stand nearby, Darien Starr is presently... not present.
09[22:29] <@Jennifer> Samantha> "Good morning! I see you all rested well!" *she smiles broadly and bows again* "Are you all ready? The trial shouldn't take too long. Ummm... Mr. Starr should be here soon."
13[22:29] * Pasting finished after 6 seconds
15[22:29] * 13@Kane glances left, then right. 1...
[22:30] <13Dias`> 6Dias stretches. 1"Jail's changed me man."
[22:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon stands there, and Cheryl looks annoyed. John dances in place, drunk. X sways, drunk, too
09[22:30] <13@Jennifer> * Darce stands there, watching Dias carefully.
[22:30] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi sways-- not drunk, just copying the two. Lilith facepalms.
09[22:30] <13@Jennifer> Samantha> "Sorry... ohhh he always overlseeps!"
[22:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien comes running in, sweating profusely, and carrying a suitcase. He tries to get his tie right
[22:31] <13Dias`> 6Dias doubletakes at X drunk. 1"Y-You got drunk without me?"
09[22:31] <13@Jennifer> * Sam stops him to correct it and opens the door. "We'll do good, don't worry. I'm sure she won't whip you much this time."
[22:32] <13@DeathStar> <X> Gave Tsuki some, but she seems fine. Kept drinking to try to get her ...buzzingh
[22:32] <13Dias`> <Dias> It's been so long since I've had a drink. It feels like a year.

09[22:32] <@Jennifer> Location: Courtroom 2A
09[22:32] <@Jennifer> * The judge pounds his gavel and the crowd quiets down, murder trials appear to draw quite the crowd. The judge is an elderly looking man, very round with a large fluffy bear and a bald head. "Order, we will now begin the trial of Mr. Dias. Is the Prosecution ready?"
09[22:33] <@Jennifer> * Standing at the prosecutor's box is a very familiar face in fancy almost militaristic clothes. Her long hair tied back, Angela stands there holding in her hand... a whip. She taps it gently and grins. "The Prosecution, Angela VonKarma is ready your honor."
09[22:33] <@Jennifer> * The judge nods and looks over at the defense box, where Darien stands alongside Samantha. "And is the defense ready?"
13[22:33] * Pasting finished after 8 seconds
[22:33] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Y-Yes, of course
[22:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl drinks a bottle as she sits there in a seat
15[22:33] * 13@Jennifer sits with her head lowered, looking depressed. She sits near Lemon.
[22:34] <13Dias`> 6Dias peers back at Cheryl, his lower lip quivering
15[22:34] * 13@Kane has his arms crossed as he sits by in the crowd, though he's near Darien.
[22:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon watches curiously. X snores

09[22:34] <@Jennifer> * The judge nods and hits his gavel again. "Alright, first witness."
09[22:34] <@Jennifer> * Angela crosses her arms and looks towards the witness box. "Your name and profession?"
09[22:34] <@Jennifer> * In the witness box stands Darce, hat off but still in that old gumshoe coat. "Officer Darce Hianule. Detective sir... I mean ma'am!"
09[22:34] <@Jennifer> Angela> "Very good, for that correction I'll only be docking your pay a little. Now, your testimony?"
09[22:34] <@Jennifer> * Darce nods and begins. "I knew it when I saw it, a murder in the prosecutors office and that dastardly Mr. Diaz was there! We've been chasing after him for months now and to be right under our noses this whole time! If his presence at the scene wasn't enough, we found this card." *he holds up a white card in a plastic bag, something written in red on it* "His name signed in the victim's blood, h
09[22:34] <@Jennifer> is calling card. D I A Z."
09[22:34] <@Jennifer> Angela> "Thank you. As you can clearly see, with the calling card and the defendant's presence at the scene of the crime... open and shut case."
09[22:34] <@Jennifer> * The judge looks like he's ready to pass judgement already as he lifts his gavel.
13[22:34] * Pasting finished after 14 seconds
[22:35] <13Dias`> 6Dias looks at his lawyer. 1"Dude, that's now how you spell my name.
[22:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien jerks. "OBJECTION!"
[22:36] <13Dias`> 6Dias jerks at Darien yelling out
09[22:36] <13@Jennifer> * The Judge, Darce, and Angela look dramatically over at Darien.
[22:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien points with his finger. "The defendant's name is Dias. With a S."
09[22:37] <13@Jennifer> * Darce looks shocked. "B-But... we also found this!" *He holds up a picture of Dias making a silly face.* "It was with the card."
[22:37] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Er, uh...a ... twin?
15[22:37] * 13@Jennifer facefaults.
[22:37] <13Dias`> 6Dias raises a brow than leans over to Darien. 1"I'm far sexier than that guy."
09[22:38] <13@Jennifer> * Angela whips at Darien. "PRESENT EVIDENCE ON THAT OR DON'T ARGUE!"
[22:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien grabs Dias' face. "My defendant is FAR sexier. THAT is my evidence."
[22:38] <13Dias`> 6Dias acks, than gives his trademark smile
15[22:38] * 13@Kane just lets out a breath.
[22:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* X rolls off her seat, still asleep. Cheryl just drinks more at this point. John woos
09[22:39] <13@Jennifer> * Angela peers at Darce. "This this all you have?"
09[22:39] <13@Jennifer> Darce> "W-Well, you see, he was already there, and with Prosecutor Gordon Paladin's blood all over his hands. It was clear he was the one who stabbed the victim."
[22:39] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel naps.
[22:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* John nudges Raquel. "You know, Dias, right? Tell them it's someone else."
[22:39] <13Dias`> <Dias> I fell onto the blood.
15[22:39] * 13@Jennifer starts to nod off, leaning into Lemon.
[22:40] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *stirs* "...huh? Wha...?"
[22:40] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> OBJECTION!
[22:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien points dramatically. "My defendant wasn't found in the room. He was found OUTSIDE the building."
09[22:40] <13@Jennifer> * The three look at him again. Angela glares at Darce.
09[22:41] <13@Jennifer> * Angela flogs him right there in front of people with her whip, he cringes in fear.
[22:41] <13Dias`> <Dias> Sweet. Wait that is sweet, right? 6He looks at Darien
[22:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl watches now, amused
[22:41] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Y-Yeah
13[22:41] * Delaying paste of 8 lines/1314 bytes for 2 second(s) per line! Type /sp to stop!
09[22:41] <@Jennifer> Angela> "...That's enough, we're done with this witness. So far it seems we can't point this crime at Mr. Dias without some further investigation. *she stares daggers down at Darce, in a 'you're going to be eating a lot of ramen noodles' sort of way. Poor Darce.*
09[22:41] <@Jennifer> Angela> "However... we have another witness from that night. Someone who claims to have seen the whole thing. We call C. Manager to the stand."
09[22:42] <@Jennifer> * A man is lead to the stand, in a slick blue business suit with his overly wavy hair slicked back off his head, he has a large smile on his face.
09[22:42] <@Jennifer> Angela> "Your name and profession?"
09[22:42] <@Jennifer> C. Manager> "Charles Manager at your service. I am the owner and proprietor of the Hotel de Nemense, which resides across the street from your fair building."
09[22:42] <@Jennifer> <Angela> "Thank you. Now why don't you tell us your story."
[22:42] <13@Kane> It seems this Angela has your short fuse. 6He tells Cheryl.
09[22:42] <@Jennifer> <C. Manager> I was just getting to rest in my private room on the top floor of my building when I noticed a light still on in the building across the way. That's when I saw two figures arguing rather heatedly. I'm no peeping Tom, but I was very interested at what could be happening so late at night, 3 AM in fact, when I looked across they way and I saw that man!"
09[22:42] <@Jennifer> * C. Manager points at Dias. "I saw him kill the poor man with a wicked looking knife! He pocketed the item and ran out the door."
13[22:42] * Pasting finished after 14 seconds
[22:42] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Eh.
[22:43] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> OBJECTION!
09[22:43] <13@Jennifer> * Angela looks at Darien, cracking her whip. "What NOW?"
[22:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien slams his hands down on the stand. "You SAY you saw the man pocket the knife, is this correct?"
09[22:44] <13@Jennifer> C. Manager> "Why of course."
[22:44] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> And that you live ON THE TOP FLOOR of the HOTEL ACROSS THE STREET.
[22:44] <13Dias`> 6Dias leans back in his chair, his hands resting on his head.
[22:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks fascinated, probably thinking this is how things are really done
09[22:45] <13@Jennifer> C. Manager> "That is correct." *he glares murderously at Dias, his arch enemy*
[22:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien points dramatically. "THEN WHY WAS THE BLOODIED KNIFE IN YOUR ROOM?!"
15[22:45] * 13@Jennifer cuddles Lemon's side.
09[22:46] <13@Jennifer> * The court staff stare at him open mouthed. Angela prepares her whip. "You'd best have some evidence to present for this accusation!" * Darien gets the odd feeling the judge might completely go against him if he fails this.
[22:46] <13Dias`> 6Dias eyes C.Manager glaring at him. 1"Manager's must really hate me.
[22:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien nods dramatically, then holds up a picture of the knife in the room, then the bag with the knife. "I PRESENT THIS TO THE COURT."
09[22:47] <13@Jennifer> * They pause to stare dramatically again. Then Angela pouts, she glares, and then roars, whipping Darien fiercely. "I can't believe I lost!!!!"
[22:48] <13Dias`> 6Dias eyes the knife then over at Angela. 1"Really? This is how court works?"
[22:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien flails
09[22:48] <13@Jennifer> * Guards move up to either side of C. Manager.
[22:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snorts awake. "Huh? What happened?"
[22:48] <13@Kane> No. This isn't how court works. But I believe we're done here.
[22:48] <13Dias`> <Dias> So since we won, what do I get? 6He looks over at Darien
[22:48] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> To be free
09[22:49] <13@Jennifer> * Sam starts to hug Darien's battered self, crying a little in joy as C. Manager is carted off, Darce uncuffs Dias. "Sorry pal."
[22:49] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel yawns, "...is it finally over?"
15[22:49] * 13@Jennifer still snoozes against Lemon.
[22:49] <13@Kane> Almost. We need that crystal.
[22:49] <13Dias`> 6Dias raises the back fo his hand at Darce. 1"Why I outta...."
09[22:49] <13@Jennifer> * The crystal's strength grows very strong suddenly.
[22:50] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi stands out and shouts. 1"OBJECTION!"
[22:50] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yep. 6* John hands her some booze
09[22:50] <13@Jennifer> * Everyone freezes and looks dramatically at Tsuki.
[22:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien makes an ill face. Lemon rises.
[22:50] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> I feel the crystal
15[22:50] * 13@Kane glances to Lemon and stands. 1Where? In Sam?
[22:50] <13Dias`> <Dias> John. Booze me. 6He holds his hand out towards him
15[22:50] * 13@Jennifer blinks and falls over, she hops up and blinks, "J-Just resting my eyes."
[22:50] <13Kit> <Tsukiyomi> ...Want... crab... now!" 6She pouts, crossing her arms.
[22:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon points dramatically in the direction of it
[22:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* X snorts awake, rubbing at her face. "Crab?"
[22:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* John motions he's handing his booze to Raquel
[22:51] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi flails comically. 1"Crab! Want crab!"
09[22:51] <13@Jennifer> * Sammael looks down in confusion as a crystal slowly floats out of her body and materializes, she faints against Darien.
[22:51] <13Dias`> 6Dias slumps
[22:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien catches her; Cheryl runs over, grabs it, then runs out. <Cheryl> Lets go.
15[22:51] * 13@Kane nods and moves after Cheryl.
[22:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon follows now, and X tries to stand up, still drunk
[22:52] <13Dias`> 6Dias suddenly points over at something. 1"My god. A THREE HEADED MONKEY!
[22:52] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...that made no sense..."
[22:52] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...not that I'm complaining about leaving."
15[22:52] * 13@Jennifer books it after Cheryl.
[22:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes Raquel ignore his booze
[22:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* John dies a little inside
09[22:53] <13@Jennifer> "I guess... I was right, good feelings can bring it out too."
[22:53] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi sniffles. 1"Need... more... crab..." 6She sounds faint.
[22:53] <13Dias`> <Dias> Damn. It never works. 6He sighs and leaps over the railing and moves over to X, grabbing her and making his way after Cheryl
[22:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stops once outside the crab. "Okay, first, we need to find a place to sober up, get food, then we're going."
[22:53] <13@DeathStar> *cou
[22:53] <13@DeathStar> *court
[22:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* John leaves with his booze now
[22:53] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...sober up?"
09[22:54] <13@Jennifer> "I umm... saw a nice little place down the road on our way here."
[22:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* X lets Dias help her
09[22:54] <13@Jennifer> "Looked like an old fashioned tea house, Chii might like it." *she smiles a bit*
[22:54] <13Kit> 6Lilith follows X and Dias-- innocently leaving Tsukiyomi behind.
[22:54] <13Kit> 6Chii remains snoring on a bench.
04[22:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl just eyes Jennifer
[22:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl looks about, then goes back in for Chii; she gets Tsuki, too
15[22:55] * 13@Jennifer looks over at her a bit nervously, then waits.
15[22:55] * 13@Kane peers at Raquel slightly, then looks to Cheryl. 1At least we'll have a few hours to relax.
[22:55] <13Kit> 6Chii snorts, then squints. 1"What, it's over? Dias dead yet?"
[22:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* JOhn drinks his booze, his back to Raquel, ignoring her now
[22:55] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi looks at Cheryl with watery eyes. 1"Crab?"
[22:55] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel sighs, "...I'll have some John, if you'll open it for me?"
[22:55] <13Dias`> 6Dias slides to a stop and he eyes Chii. 1"You wish."
[22:55] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yeah, Dias is dead. Come on. 6* She picks Chii up like a baby, then lifts Tsuki. "Fine, crab, fine."
[22:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* John beams, and hands her the open bottle.
15[22:55] * 13@Jennifer moves over to John and smiles at him. "Hey."
[22:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl storms back out, heading in the direction indicated - something might tell Kane she won't be spending the next hour or so relaxing
[22:56] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel takes it and sips it cautiously. Not sure what it is.
[22:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Sweet, fruity drink without much alcohol
15[22:56] * 13@Kane lets out a breath and moves after her, sad faced.
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks for Lilith. Then flops on her
[22:57] <13Kit> 6Tsukiyomi squeals like a toddler getting what she wants. Chii peers at Cheryl, then clings to her. 1"Ohoho, mama."
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'll drop you
09[22:57] <13@Jennifer> * The city is pretty calm, your average metropolis, though amazingly clean and well kept. The tea house is a large one, looking like a Japanese styled old house with a large garden, a good place to unwind.
[22:57] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel smiles. It doesn't burn her throat, she's happy.
[22:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon walks along, humming
14[22:58] * DeathStar (Gilmore@216.119.3.143) Quit (Quit: The second verse, same as the first)
[22:58] <13Dias`> 6Dias walks along with X.
03[22:58] * DeathStar (Gilmore@216.119.3.143) has joined #taw
03[22:58] * ChanServ sets mode: +o DeathStar
15[22:59] * 13@Jennifer walks along by John, she seems a bit better in spirits now, since they got a crystal after all.
[22:59] <13@Kane> I hope the tea is good.
[23:00] <13Dias`> <Dias> I hope they have booze.
15[23:00] * 13@Jennifer yawns a bit. "As long as they don't have lawyers."
09[23:01] <13@Jennifer> -END- (Continue on if you wanna mini)
