not8mihalis8boy: I'll be back when I finish the last
handout
WuseMajor: ok is spits out two chewable asprin
Nix527: (WOO HOO)
Nix527: (Now that's what I'm talking about)
LordStyphon01: "Have a nice nap?"
Nix527: "ow, damn. It's like there's a party in my head, and mettalica
is the house band."
Nix527: "what the hell happened
Nix527: "
LordStyphon01: "You passed out after healing me."
WuseMajor: (i hate when that happens)
Nix527: "ah ok. How long was I out?"
not8mihalis8boy: (half a day)
LordStyphon01: "12 hours"
not8mihalis8boy: (it's now early evening)
LordStyphon01: (Is it really?)
Nix527: "Anything intresting happen while I was being really
introspective?"
LordStyphon01: "Not as far as I know."
Nix527: (BTW where are we?)
LordStyphon01: (Some Technocratic construct)
Nix527: (oh wonderful)
LordStyphon01: (Isn't it, though?)
Nix527: *as vision returns to focus* "holy shit! where the hell am I?"
LordStyphon01: "A Union facility."
Nix527: "Who or what is the 'Union'?"
firelight mystic has entered the room.
firelight mystic has left the room.
Nix527: "and furthermore why the hell am I HERE?"
not8mihalis8boy: (Alicia's not coming)
Nix527: (ok)
LordStyphon01: "How many Unions do you know of that would
have interest in you?"
Nix527: "none, I am tourist."
LordStyphon01: "You are more than that."
Nix527: "other than the Technocratic union. oh shit."
Nix527: "What do you want with me?"
Nix527: (Boy i'm glad my scythe is a fetish)
not8mihalis8boy: (scratch that. She'll show up in an
hour)
LordStyphon01: "You are a Mage. That is enough for us to acquire
an interest in you."
not8mihalis8boy: (AHEM. REALITY DEVIANT)
LordStyphon01: (I'm trying to be diplomatic)
Nix527: (you're failing)
LordStyphon01: (Besides, not all Reality Deviants are of interest to
us)
Nix527: "Don't call me that. You make it sound as if I'm in volved
with those idiots in the 'Coucil of Nine' "
LordStyphon01: "What should I call you, then?"
Nix527: "How about calling me by name, like a human being instead
of an animal. I don't like being thrown in to a group via a
generalization. Just call me Gemini, for now. Now what specifically
do you want with me?"
LordStyphon01: "Very well, Gemini. We want you for both the
reason that you are a user of Enlightened Science and for the reason
that I saw you associating with a group of RDs we are currently
investigating."
Nix527: "If you're refering to those people I was with, I have no idea
who there are and what they're doing here, nor do I care."
Nix527: "and seeing as how I cannot provide you with any useful
information about them, how about we call it a day and I go."
LordStyphon01: "How about we not."
not8mihalis8boy: (almost ready)
LordStyphon01: (How much info should I give her about the
Nephandi?)
not8mihalis8boy: (up to you)
not8mihalis8boy: (start wrapping it up, with an
excuse to go looking for your three favorite
RDs)
Nix527: "Look, I've got nothing against the Techs, they leave me
alone I leave them alone."
LordStyphon01: "We have reason to believe that the RDs you came
across are part of a Nephandi infestation."
Nix527: "Nephandi? Boy have you guys got you're wires crossed"
Nix527: (sorry, your)
not8mihalis8boy: (ready)
LordStyphon01: "About a year ago, there was an explosion at
NYCU. The Nephandi were involved. So were they."
not8mihalis8boy: (Not a year ago. A month ago.)
LordStyphon01: (Whatever)
not8mihalis8boy: (Two weeks, actually)
LordStyphon01: (Make up your mind)
not8mihalis8boy: (I was rounding)
Nix527: "and so, they're guilty by association? Geez, how
unamerican, whatever happened to 'innocent until proven guilty?'"
LordStyphon01: "The Union is more than merely American"
Nix527: "no wonder the Nine don't like you guys"
Nix527: "You're one of those 'glass half-empty' people aren't you?"
LordStyphon01: "What does that have to do with anything?"
Nix527: "Well, if you didn't automatically assign guilt to those who
don't exactly have the same philosophy that you do, or try to kill
them for that matter, you might find it easier to get the info you need."
LordStyphon01: "We are looking to remove that infestation. They
are our only definite link to it. Therefore, we need them."
Nix527: " as what? info sources, or test subjects?"
LordStyphon01: "Resources in our fight to create a better world"
Nix527: "Boy, they really push that techno manifeto into your skulls
don't they"
Nix527: (manifesto)
LordStyphon01: "And besides, we don't disect Enlightned people as
if they were frogs in a high school biology classroom."
not8mihalis8boy: (Only PROGENITORS do THAT...)
LordStyphon01: (Shut up, will you)
Nix527: (guilt by association)
LordStyphon01: (And not even them if they don't have to)
not8mihalis8boy: At this point, one of your flunkies
comes in
Nix527: ( I realize it's hypocritical, but that makes for good human
element in RPGing)
LordStyphon01: "They are simply to valuable a resource to callously
waste... What is it?)
not8mihalis8boy: "Agent Smith? We've got a lock
on one of the targets, sir."
LordStyphon01: "
LordStyphon01: "Oh? Which one?"
not8mihalis8boy: "Target 3, sir."
Nix527: "see.. 'Targets' like on a shooting range"
Nix527: "no name, only a number"
not8mihalis8boy: "We've got her on screen....she's
left the museum."
LordStyphon01: "Or targets of investigation. We don't have any
names"
LordStyphon01: "That's the kid, right?"
Nix527: "How convient"
not8mihalis8boy: (actually, you do have names)
Nix527: (ha)
LordStyphon01: (I might, but do they?)
WuseMajor: (i knew i had a name!)
not8mihalis8boy: (Yes)
not8mihalis8boy: (they were the subjects of an
official police inquiry)
Nix527: (gee, i like it when the ST proves my point)
not8mihalis8boy: (motions head towards Gemini)
"Yes sir. Wu Hsu, I believe, sir. And, uh, sir?
Should I prepare the Interrogation room?"
not8mihalis8boy: (But the 'crats like using numbers,
it's true)
Nix527: " just try it peon, see what I do to you."
LordStyphon01: "It might be prudent. Do it."
LordStyphon01: "What have they been telling you about us?"
WuseMajor: (no anything but that, not the interrogation room!)
Nix527: "You don't want to get inside my head."
WuseMajor: (what is the interrogation room?)
LordStyphon01: (The room where interrogations are carried out)
LordStyphon01: (Duh)
not8mihalis8boy: "Uh, sir? Don't you want to monitor
target 3's movement? If you give us an
interrogation procedure list, we can take care
of this one for you. Sir."
Nix527: (what would happen if I snapped his neck?)
WuseMajor: (bad things)
not8mihalis8boy: (i.e. You've got more important
stuff to do. Tell us what you want to know, and
we'll find out)
Nix527: ( Icould you know)
WuseMajor: (you should wait till you are out...then snap his neck)
not8mihalis8boy: (BTW, this is the same agent from
the museum....who is currently in rather bad
odor with you, Charles)
WuseMajor: (poor agent)
Nix527: (so, if I snapped his neck, no one would care?)
WuseMajor: (he would)
LordStyphon01: "Go find her, and bring her back here. I want to
get as much information as I can."
WuseMajor: (for a moment anyway)
not8mihalis8boy: (his voice cracks) "You want me
to lead an Acquisition Team, sir???"
not8mihalis8boy: "Against one of the NYCU
targets???"
Nix527: "loser"
LordStyphon01: "You're a trained, Enlightened agent. Aren't you up
to it?"
not8mihalis8boy: "Uh...yes, Sir."
not8mihalis8boy: "How many Agents should I take
with me, sir?"
Nix527: "cough...cough...Dumbass...cough...cough"
WuseMajor: (oooh, if only i had entropy)
not8mihalis8boy: (These ARE the people who
singlehandedly annihilated much of NYCU)
LordStyphon01: "Just two. And don't be too aggressive. I don't
want the subject damaged if it can be avoided."
WuseMajor: (i could do that thing where you walk down the street
and all the agents fail and you don't notice)
not8mihalis8boy: (Heh. If only you had ANY combat
skills. Too bad they can't orbitally monitor
Central Park and The Met directly--but it IS a
node)
not8mihalis8boy: "Yes, sir."
not8mihalis8boy: He leaves
not8mihalis8boy: Switch to Wu
WuseMajor: (i'm in troube aren't i?)
not8mihalis8boy: Wu is leaving the room, and then
remembers something
LordStyphon01: (Have you been naughty?)
Nix527: (I'm left strangly unfullfilled)
not8mihalis8boy: She turns back to the room, sticks
her head in, and says....
not8mihalis8boy: (Wu? fill in the blank you told me
out of game earlier)
Nix527: (there was little to no point to the previous convo)
not8mihalis8boy: (Sorry, Cory....I'm TRYING to get
the group together)
WuseMajor: "hey, what are a couple of ancient religions you know
little about?"
Nix527: (np, i'm just randomly bitching, it's what I do, don't take it to
mean anything :-) )
LordStyphon01: (Does that mean that you're a random bitch?)
WuseMajor: "in case we are wrong i want a cuple of other things to
look up while i'm at the store"
not8mihalis8boy: "Um....all of them except for the
Sumerians, Christianity, and Judiasm"
not8mihalis8boy: "Try looking up Sumerian
stuff....there's not much to go on, but it's the
one thing I can think of to scare a demon THAT
badly"
Nix527: (sure, why not, it's a free country)
WuseMajor: "ok i will pick up a copy of the bible, torah, and see
what i can find on the summarians."
not8mihalis8boy: "It's not a demon I'M familiar with,
though, so if it IS Sumerian, it somehow missed
being ported into Christianity."
not8mihalis8boy: "Nonono. Those are the ones I DO
know about. Pick up other stuff, like
Hinduism."
WuseMajor: "anything else you can think of?"
Nix527: ( the torah IS the bible, just the old testiment anyway)
WuseMajor: "oh"
WuseMajor: "ok"
not8mihalis8boy: (actually, there are other
differences)
Nix527: (well of course, christianity has a history of fucking things
up)
not8mihalis8boy: flash forward. Wu is walking to
Barnes and Nobles, wishing she had longer legs
not8mihalis8boy: (indeed)
not8mihalis8boy: ...or a car
WuseMajor: "i will try to get a lot of stuff"
not8mihalis8boy: (pay attention, Michael)
Nix527: (cough...public transportation...cough)
WuseMajor: (or a working teleprotal)
not8mihalis8boy: (not that far)
Nix527: How do you not take paradok()
not8mihalis8boy: (and you don't WANT to teleport
out of HERE....remember the ripples?)
Nix527: (paradox)
not8mihalis8boy: (she does. She's accumulated 3 so
far)
WuseMajor: (not far enough to 'port, to far to walk...drat)
not8mihalis8boy: (Traci's got a whopping 8)
not8mihalis8boy: A car pulls up alongside you, and
the passenger window rolls down
not8mihalis8boy: It's a black sedan
Nix527: (how many did I accumulate if any after the healing, 0
right?)
WuseMajor: ah
not8mihalis8boy: "Need a ride, miss?"
WuseMajor: "no i'm ok."
not8mihalis8boy: (yep)
Nix527: (ha ha, sweet!)
Nix527: ( I am so good)
not8mihalis8boy: "You sure? I'm off for the evening,
and you look like you could use a ride."
WuseMajor: (just wait)
not8mihalis8boy: He's dressed like a limo driver
WuseMajor: "no i don't have to far to go."
not8mihalis8boy: (that's because you just woke up
from the coma which got rid of said paradox)
Nix527: (he he)
not8mihalis8boy: It IS a ways for such young legs,
Wu.....
WuseMajor: (me get in a black sedan? riiiight)
not8mihalis8boy: "You sure? Alright...." He starts to
roll up the window. Ya know, it DOES look like a
limo......
not8mihalis8boy: (hang on)
WuseMajor: "thanks for the offer"
WuseMajor: "but no"
Nix527: "damn, she gets hit on and she refuses geex, what a prude"
Nix527: ()
not8mihalis8boy: Actually, it's AWFULLY tempting,
Wu. You feel VERY safe.
Nix527: (prude)
Nix527: (prude prude prude)
not8mihalis8boy: (OOC: 1 success on a Mind spell)
not8mihalis8boy: (oops. Two)
Nix527: (go get u some girl)
not8mihalis8boy: (You're not compelled, but....)
WuseMajor: way too many preditors in new york
LordStyphon01: (predators, even)
WuseMajor: way too dangerious
not8mihalis8boy: (see above.)
not8mihalis8boy: Like I said, you somehow feel safe,
like you can trust this guy.
Nix527: (you want to go....)
WuseMajor: its the ones that make you feel safe that are the most
dagerious
not8mihalis8boy: He's motoring on at about walking
speed (typical NYCU traffic)
not8mihalis8boy: But he's starting to get honked at
Nix527: (he's a hottie)
not8mihalis8boy: He finally drives off
WuseMajor: wait a minute why am i not in a cab?
Nix527: (ooh you missed out)
WuseMajor: this is new york
Nix527: (show some leg and get one)
not8mihalis8boy: Because you don't have much
money
WuseMajor: at my apperent age?
not8mihalis8boy: And it's only like 6 blocks
WuseMajor: ok
WuseMajor: i keep walking
Nix527: (you think guys care?)
not8mihalis8boy: (actually, you didn't take
child....you're short, not young)
Nix527: (it's sick I know)
WuseMajor: point
LordStyphon01: (Guys that like to stay out of jail care)
WuseMajor: any way
not8mihalis8boy: Anyway, after a long walk which
makes you REALLY wish that you'd taken him
up on his offer, and dreading the walk home
loaded with books, you arrive at Barnes &
Noble/Starbucks
Nix527: ( this is new york, jail time is practically a prerequisite for
residency)
not8mihalis8boy: The first thing you notice is a black
sedan with government plates parked
outside
not8mihalis8boy: (hehehe.....don't tell Thomas that)
LordStyphon01: (Or, in the Clintons' case, it should be)
WuseMajor: uh oh
Nix527: (yeah really)
WuseMajor: i assume that there isn't a back way
LordStyphon01: B&N/Starbucks. The dual monarchy of evil
not8mihalis8boy: Actually, you're kinda hoping it's
the same guy, and that he'll take you back to
the Met
WuseMajor: (yep)
not8mihalis8boy: No, no back way)
Nix527: (oh there is.... but you don't want to go in the "back way")
not8mihalis8boy: ()
WuseMajor: why am i not getting through to my brain
not8mihalis8boy: (Maybe because your
CHARACTER isn't Paranoid?)
LordStyphon01: (wouldn't she have noticed Gov'tr plates on the car
that tried to pick her up?)
not8mihalis8boy: (She is, in fact, SELF CONFIDENT,
remember?)
WuseMajor: point
LordStyphon01: (No)
not8mihalis8boy: (She didn't look at the back)
WuseMajor: point
Nix527: (it was beside her, unless he has telescoping optic apparati I
doubt it)
Nix527: (she)
not8mihalis8boy: (hard to see license plates in New
York traffic, too)
WuseMajor: point
not8mihalis8boy: (SHE ALSO HAS OVERCONFIDENT,
YOU TWIT!!!)
not8mihalis8boy: (LOOK AT YOUR BLOODY
CHARACTER SHEET!)
WuseMajor: if he is still out there when i'm done, maybe...
WuseMajor: i go in
Nix527: Micheal, are you keeping score in some game we should
know about?()
WuseMajor: (i know, i know)
not8mihalis8boy: (Keep this up, and I WILL make
you buy those off)
WuseMajor: (got it)
not8mihalis8boy: There he is, that NICE MAN who
offered you a ride, sitting in a comfy chair,
reading
WuseMajor: i"i need so books then i need to go back to the met"
Nix527: (yeah non euclidian physics, that's what she's intrested in, uh
huh sure...)
not8mihalis8boy: "Uh...really? Imagine that! Maybe
we could go back to the Met, you said?
Anyway, maybe we could go back there and
discuss particle physics."
WuseMajor: "if you are going to be here a while i thought you might
give my a ride back when i was done"
LordStyphon01: (She's based on Washu. Of course she is)
not8mihalis8boy: "Like I said, sure. I'd be happy to."
LordStyphon01: (No, she's putting on makeup. Soon = from here
to infinity)
not8mihalis8boy: "Um...Where'd you get your hair
dyed? It's pretty....cool."
WuseMajor: (starts paging through popular weaponry monthly...)
not8mihalis8boy: (Remember, Wu, you have Surreal.
You get hit on and offered rides ALL THE TIME)
not8mihalis8boy: (You find an article on
accelerator cannons)
not8mihalis8boy: Anyway, you go get books on
what?
WuseMajor: "oh i do it myself"
Nix527: (boy, that's a cheap line, you think for a guy reading non
euclidian physics he'd have a better line... oh wait.. nm)
not8mihalis8boy: "Really? What other talents do you
have?"
not8mihalis8boy: He seems to be getting geniunely
excited
Nix527: (tying cherry stems into knots)
LordStyphon01: (Get a room)
WuseMajor: "just a little of this and that..."
not8mihalis8boy: (oh god, don't remind me)
not8mihalis8boy: "Well, what are you looking for
today?"
Nix527: (meat)
not8mihalis8boy: (Barnes & Noble: the modern
singles bar)
LordStyphon01: (Whips, chains, leather, celery. The usual)
WuseMajor: "i wanted a little light reading, plus a friend needed
some books on religon"
Nix527: (and the unusual as well)
Nix527: (religon?)
Nix527: what's a religon()
LordStyphon01: (The Kama Sutra, no doubt)
not8mihalis8boy: "Religion? Hmm....not my area of
expertise. Still, let's see what we can find, shall
we?" With that, he stands up, closes and
bookmarks the book, and leads you to the
religion section
Nix527: (hey hindi at it's best)
WuseMajor: (i can't spell well never been able to)
Nix527: (that's so sad)
not8mihalis8boy: "Whatca lookin' for?"
not8mihalis8boy: He motions you in front of him
Nix527: (a date)
WuseMajor: (and i read all the time you would think that the
spellings would have rubbed off)
not8mihalis8boy: Do you step in front of him?
Nix527: (yeah, you'd think so wouldn't you?)
Nix527: (ooooh)
WuseMajor: i suppose
not8mihalis8boy: Make a Willpower roll, difficulty
6...you need 3 successes
Nix527: (wham bam thank you ma'am)
not8mihalis8boy: As you feel a hypo being pressed
to your throat
Nix527: (geez, he needs to sedate his dates? what a loser)
WuseMajor: (should i do it at current will?)
not8mihalis8boy: No
not8mihalis8boy: Permanent, like all rolls
not8mihalis8boy: But you can't use Self-Confident
Nix527: (gee, I wonder why)
WuseMajor: (i got 3)
not8mihalis8boy: okay
Nix527: (You're out cold)
not8mihalis8boy: (no, she needed 3)
Nix527: (darn)
not8mihalis8boy: You feel sleepy, and pissed
LordStyphon01: (she's drunk?)
not8mihalis8boy: What do you do? He presses it
against your neck again
Nix527: (I think so)
WuseMajor: i run
LordStyphon01: (Sleeprunning. The latest craze)
WuseMajor: yelling won't help this is new york
Nix527: (gee, that always works in the movies, oh no wait it doesn't)
not8mihalis8boy: roll Dodge
WuseMajor: i'm going to see if i can get in the store
Nix527: You are in the store()
not8mihalis8boy: you need 4 successes
WuseMajor: (diff?)
not8mihalis8boy: Indeed. You're in the religion
section
not8mihalis8boy: 6, as all melee Dodge rolls
WuseMajor: (how many floors?)
Nix527: (3 probably)
WuseMajor: (i got one)
Nix527: (oh you fail)
WuseMajor: (yep)
not8mihalis8boy: (1 floor, but big and empty)
not8mihalis8boy: Now roll Willpower....you need 4
successes
Nix527: except for the rows and rows of book shelves())
not8mihalis8boy: (Which obscure LOS)
Nix527: (yep)
WuseMajor: (diff?)
not8mihalis8boy: 6
WuseMajor: (6)
not8mihalis8boy: (The new military handbook:
Guerrilla warfare operations in paper
information distribution centers)
not8mihalis8boy: (six successes?)
Nix527: wow()
WuseMajor: (yes)
not8mihalis8boy: Okay. You're AWAKE and pissed.
He's looking panicked. What do you do for
YOUR action? Run?
WuseMajor: yes!
Nix527: She should just deck him()
not8mihalis8boy: Unfortunately, he's got you by the
arm
not8mihalis8boy: Next round
not8mihalis8boy: he looks around, shrugs, mutters,
and pulls out a big gun
WuseMajor: I grab a book and throw it at him
not8mihalis8boy: "Hold still. I promise you won't get
hurt."
Nix527: (he's got a big gun)
Nix527: (he's compensating)
WuseMajor: "yea like i haven't heard that before..."
not8mihalis8boy: You drop the book as he twists
your arm
WuseMajor: "ow"
not8mihalis8boy: "Look. I've got orders."
WuseMajor: "i suppose the book was fake too"
Nix527: (a number 4 with a coke)
not8mihalis8boy: "No, I actually AM interested in
non-Euclidean physics.
not8mihalis8boy: It surprises me that an RD is, as
well."
Nix527: ( boy Wu u sure can pick'em)
not8mihalis8boy: "Look--I promise I won't hurt you
until ordered otherwise, and I promise that
no-one else will until we get back to base
camp, ok?"
WuseMajor: "and if you aren't going to hurt me then why do you
have a gun out?"
WuseMajor: "and what are you going to do wiith my there?"
LordStyphon01: (With your what?)
Nix527: (because you're not just going to follow him cuz he says so)
not8mihalis8boy: "To get you to come with me.
Unfortunately, I just realized that you now
know I won't hurt you, and it is therefore useless
for intimidation. Drat. I'm kinda new at this."
WuseMajor: "i know you are going to take me to some knid of
secret club, aren't you"
not8mihalis8boy: (LMAO)
WuseMajor: (lamo?
WuseMajor: )
Nix527: (the electric pussy cat club)
not8mihalis8boy: "Sort of. But Agent Smith doesn't
want you hurt you, so I think you are physically
safe from harm."
not8mihalis8boy: (Laughing My Ass Off)
not8mihalis8boy: (nice quote)
WuseMajor: "that had better be the case"
not8mihalis8boy: "So will you come with me?
Please?"
Nix527: (oh, so polite)
WuseMajor: (go ahead and play the whole thing when agent smith
gets me into his room)
WuseMajor: "tell me what you want."
Nix527: (I could go so many ways with that)
not8mihalis8boy: (ROTFLMAO)
Nix527: (what you really really want)
not8mihalis8boy: (It's a funny Tenchi clip)
WuseMajor: (i didn't think that clip would come in handy so soon)
not8mihalis8boy: "I want you to come with me."
WuseMajor: "ok what does your superior want then?"
not8mihalis8boy: ("together, we can rule the
galaxy as father and, uh, son.")
Nix527: (lol so many ways to abuse that statement)
not8mihalis8boy: (true, true)
Nix527: (what all supiriors want, sex)
not8mihalis8boy: "Aaargh! I don't KNOW, ok? Just
come with me, or I'll give you a bigger dose of
sedative!"
Nix527: (and then we will have hot monkey sex!)
WuseMajor: "you really are new at this arn't you?"
Nix527: (he's a virgin)
firelight mystic has entered the room.
not8mihalis8boy: "...yes."
firelight mystic: heya
Nix527: speaking of which...look who just showed up()
LordStyphon01: (Practical experience from the US Army)
Nix527: ah yes()
not8mihalis8boy: (Actually, you ALWAYS volunteer
in the Army)
firelight mystic: (If you're not sure, the Claymore's pointed at
you....;-)
firelight mystic: (unless you get drafted...)
not8mihalis8boy: (Otherwise, horrible things
happen. Trust me.)
firelight mystic: (you would know....)
WuseMajor: "the whole point of being a man in black is being
misterious, intimidating, and a figure of athurity."
not8mihalis8boy: (Not FOR the Army. IN the Army.)
Nix527: (team work is essential, it gives the enemy other people to
shoot at)
WuseMajor: (yep)
not8mihalis8boy: "Yeah, but then how am I
supposed to kidnap you without raising a
stir?"
Nix527: (try not kidnapping in a public place)
not8mihalis8boy: BTW, this conversation is taking
place with him leading you out of B&N...he's
put up the gun, too
firelight mystic: (I'm still lost....)
not8mihalis8boy: People look at him kinda funny
when he says that, but he doesn't seem to
notice
not8mihalis8boy: (transcript on it's way)
Nix527: (that's normal....for you)
firelight mystic: (HEY)
firelight mystic: (You can't say that to the Secretary of the Student
Body!)
WuseMajor: "this is new york. people don't notice"
firelight mystic: (It's New York. They notice. They don't give a
damn, though)
WuseMajor: "and if they do just flash your badge."
not8mihalis8boy: "Oh. So I should just look
intimidating and use force?"
Nix527: (student body eh? lol so many ways.... so many ways)
firelight mystic: (don't even....)
WuseMajor: "that is the standard way."
not8mihalis8boy: (Watch out....last time, she
slapped me sillier)
not8mihalis8boy: "But what if I'm not supposed to
hurt you?"
WuseMajor: "i prefer this way though."
not8mihalis8boy: He opens the door, and you
notice there's two other guys in the sedan,
both in the front seats
Nix527: (she can't slap me, I'm got mad matrix-style dodging skillz)
firelight mystic: (Pulls a gun to your head: Dodge this.)
not8mihalis8boy: (Proof that not all Technocrats
are evil)
WuseMajor: these guys...
firelight mystic: (just misguided.)
not8mihalis8boy: (transcript)
Nix527: (no, the rest are just child-like in mentality)
not8mihalis8boy: (Not misguided, either. Just
different)
WuseMajor: (some are just neive)
not8mihalis8boy: (They ARE your age...)
firelight mystic: (true on both counts.)
WuseMajor: (point)
firelight mystic: (their hearts are in the right place. WEll, most of the
time....)
WuseMajor: (more or less)
not8mihalis8boy: You arrive.
Nix527: (unless they're it-X then the heart has nothing to do with it)
not8mihalis8boy: (whee....)
Nix527: (that goes for Syndies too)
not8mihalis8boy: Your "host" opens the door for you,
and motions you inside
WuseMajor: i go in
firelight mystic: (hold on. I'm reading.)
not8mihalis8boy: (You sound like a parasite)
Nix527: (no, you stay outside...)
not8mihalis8boy: He leads you to a room, where he
knocks
Nix527: (...you out)
not8mihalis8boy: Agent Smith, you hear a knock at
the door to the room where you've been
chatting philosophy with Gemini
not8mihalis8boy: (muffled) "We got her sir. She
came quietly."
firelight mystic: (What the hell.....8
paradox?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!???!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!)
not8mihalis8boy: (without all that loud moaning)
Nix527: (he he, MUFFled)
not8mihalis8boy: (yes, 8. I've been counting)
not8mihalis8boy: (Damn. You did that joke even
better than I could have.)
Nix527: (thnx, I try)
WuseMajor: (what joke?)
Nix527: (lol)
LordStyphon01: "Yes? Good. Bring her in"
not8mihalis8boy: (MUFFled, Michael. MUFFled. Read
more porn.)
WuseMajor: (i don't read any)
firelight mystic: (You all die for the lesbo crack, btw.....)
not8mihalis8boy: (obviously)
Nix527: (what about those Omaha the cat dancer comics you have?)
not8mihalis8boy: (HEY! Alli IS bi...)
not8mihalis8boy: (And Dragon Pink?)
not8mihalis8boy: Anyway, Wu, you enter the room
with the Agent
firelight mystic: (HEY! How come I don't get hit on all the time?
I'm the best looking out of all of you bitches!)
WuseMajor: he is the same guy from the park right?
not8mihalis8boy: (NEW! From MiB! Agent Orange!
He's friendly, he's persuasive, he'll stick around
for years!)
Nix527: (on the outside, but you're attitude sucks)
not8mihalis8boy: Which? The guy leading you, or
the guy in the room?
WuseMajor: the guy in the room
LordStyphon01: (Don't make me laugh, Alicia)
not8mihalis8boy: Yeah, it's Agent Smith
WuseMajor: ok
firelight mystic: (HEY! I HAVE A GREAT ATTITUDE!)
not8mihalis8boy: (Actually, Alicia, it's because you
haven't been out much)
WuseMajor: "i take it you wanted to see me?"
not8mihalis8boy: (correction: your CHARACTER is
SUPPOSED to have a great attitude)
not8mihalis8boy: brb
Nix527: (of the closet that is)
not8mihalis8boy: keep roleplaying
firelight mystic: (So do I)
WuseMajor: "or who he serves"
firelight mystic: (this whole thing was complicated from the get-go_
LordStyphon01: (Alicia, shut up)
Nix527: (As for who he served, I got one clue for ya, it's got 13
eyes, 7 breasts and looks very very pregnant)
firelight mystic: (Someone knocked Roseanne up?!?!)
LordStyphon01: "In that case, there is no telling how much he could
have corrupted."
firelight mystic: (EWWWWWWWWWW)
LordStyphon01: (Alicia, SHUT UP!)
WuseMajor: "anyway there is a statue of great power that i need to
figure out how to destroy, so if that is everything i will be going."
firelight mystic: (fine.)
LordStyphon01: "Statue of great power?"
WuseMajor: "i'm sure that you guys have Nephandi detectors or
somthing."
Nix527: "You can't keep your mouth shut can you?"
WuseMajor: "yeah. an evil thing if i ever saw one."
WuseMajor: "all these guys would want to do is desroy it
LordStyphon01: "Stay quiet!"
WuseMajor: "
Nix527: *shakes head* "you know, you didn't even have to prep the
interrogation room, she's just spilling her guts."
LordStyphon01: "We like to be prepared."
WuseMajor: "why should i not?"
Nix527: "hello, it's the Technocracy... need I say more?"
LordStyphon01: "AGENT KELLER!"
not8mihalis8boy: "Yes, sir?"
not8mihalis8boy: It's the guy who was at The Met
Nix527: "oh great, another flunkie"
not8mihalis8boy: He also looks a LOT like the limo
driver......
WuseMajor: (was he in the car?)
not8mihalis8boy: (see above)
WuseMajor: (ah)
LordStyphon01: Remove this RD. Escort to an unoccupied office
until I ask her to return.
not8mihalis8boy: "Yes, sir. Would you please come
with me, ma'am?"
Nix527: "you'd think with all the money you guys have, you could
afford to hire bettre help"
WuseMajor: "fine"
not8mihalis8boy: (he's talking to Gemini)
Nix527: "not you, me"
WuseMajor: oh
not8mihalis8boy: "Well?"
not8mihalis8boy: He pulls out a big gun and points
it at your head. He's wearing mirrorshades, of
course.
WuseMajor: "that is a deep subject."
Nix527: "sure, I'll go, but before I go, Agent, you might want to get
that rod removed from your ass"
not8mihalis8boy: "Excellent. This way, ma'am."
not8mihalis8boy: As he turns to escort Gemini from
the room, he winks at you out of the corner of
his glasses, Wu.
Nix527: (can I snap his neck?)
LordStyphon01: "You might want to learn to hold your tounge. It
seems to cause you nothing but trouble."
LordStyphon01: "Now go."
Nix527: "geez, what a grump"
not8mihalis8boy: He whispers in your ear "Yeah,
well...that's what comes from being old. You
like computer games?"
not8mihalis8boy: (no)
firelight mystic: (um....can we say ego issues?)
WuseMajor: "i don't know."
not8mihalis8boy: (You have a tracking beacon
that Alli has the transponder for)
Nix527: (huh?)
WuseMajor: "don't you have shields or somthing?"
firelight mystic: (apparently not)
Nix527: (ha ha ha)
not8mihalis8boy: (Correspondence....you built a
tracking beacon that emits in Subspace, and
can only be picked up by the transponder)
not8mihalis8boy: (And you gave the transponder
to Alli)
LordStyphon01: *Glares at Wu*
Nix527: (how convient)
not8mihalis8boy: "Sir! Their ETA is less than 10
minutes, sir!"
WuseMajor: "i would have figured that this place would have
subspace shields."
not8mihalis8boy: (actually, it IS in character)
WuseMajor: (ie wards)
not8mihalis8boy: (or, look at it another way: Alli has
Prime. She's tracking Wu's Prime trail)
not8mihalis8boy: (either way....)
Nix527: (you say tomato...)
LordStyphon01: "If they want to pay us a visit, let them"
firelight mystic: (tomato)
WuseMajor: oh boy
not8mihalis8boy: (both are convenient ways of
getting the group together)
not8mihalis8boy: switch to entrance, a few minutes
later
WuseMajor: (they weren't stupid enough not to take my comp were
they?)
not8mihalis8boy: Traci's car pulls up, and Alli jumps
out of the car
Nix527: (*shoots alicia with elephant tranqs*)
LordStyphon01: "However, don't let them into any sensitive areas.
If they become a problem with that, you are authorized to neutralize
them."
firelight mystic: (HEY)
firelight mystic: (What's that for?)
firelight mystic: (Be nice)
not8mihalis8boy: (Since Benjamin didn't say
so....yes, you have all your stuff)
Nix527: (nm you don't get it)
WuseMajor: (he is an NPC he doesn't have to play nice)
not8mihalis8boy: Gemini, you hear a pounding at
the door just down the hall
firelight mystic: (waitasecond....if this is about my driving.....)
not8mihalis8boy: Alli: "Open up, creeps! Gimme
back Wu or you're DEAD MEAT!!!"
WuseMajor: (am i being payed attention to at the moment?)
Nix527: (*shakes head* Alicia, it's better to be thought a fool...)
not8mihalis8boy: (yes....Agent Smith is ignoring the
hubbub)
firelight mystic: Traci: Why don't we just blow the door in.....
not8mihalis8boy: "I've learned subtlety"
firelight mystic: (sorry. it's been a long day. 3 exams. my brain sux
at the moment)
Nix527: (that's not all I'm sure)
LordStyphon01: (Then why are you pounding on the door yelling?"
LordStyphon01: )
firelight mystic: subtle my ass.
not8mihalis8boy: (exactly. Allison is still Allison)
Nix527: (you got that wrong)
firelight mystic: you're the one with the Kung Fu mystical
powers....kick the door in
firelight mystic: I don't think Wu's going to come out and answer
not8mihalis8boy: Oh, fine...since no-one's
responding. Wait...(checks)...Hey! The door's
unlocked!
not8mihalis8boy: <opens door>
WuseMajor: (oh no)
not8mihalis8boy: What the hell?
firelight mystic: huh?
Nix527: *shakes head at the complete lack of dtact being displayed
down the hall*
not8mihalis8boy: door opens to 2 MiBs with
shotguns
firelight mystic: shit
not8mihalis8boy: "Come with us, please"
WuseMajor: (off course)
firelight mystic: Whispers :um.....Alli, maybe we should go.
firelight mystic: *NOW*
not8mihalis8boy: hang on
firelight mystic: time to dodge.....
Nix527: (ha)
Nix527: At that range? with shot guns?()
not8mihalis8boy: actually, she just stands there
Nix527: (good luck with that)
firelight mystic: (those have got to be some great shot guns)
firelight mystic: huh??
WuseMajor: (gotta love forces)
firelight mystic: (and here we go....)
not8mihalis8boy: The shots ricochet
not8mihalis8boy: hang on
not8mihalis8boy: At that range, with shotguns.....
LordStyphon01: (The FUCK?)
not8mihalis8boy: (Ben, what are your agents
armored in? What Class?)
firelight mystic: (same sentiment here)
Nix527: (to quote Unreal Tournament: "Traci is turned into a leaky
piece of meat by mib's shrapnel")
WuseMajor: (like i said gotta love forces)
firelight mystic: (I doubt that seriously. TIME 3. I'll pull a Neo.)
not8mihalis8boy: (no....bounced off the shield
TOWARDS the MiBs)
Nix527: Oh, I can't wait for that paradox to backlash()
not8mihalis8boy: (Seriously)
firelight mystic: (I can.)
not8mihalis8boy: (What level armor? 2?)
LordStyphon01: (Waitaminute. These aren't bullets)
firelight mystic: (?!!?)
Nix527: (energy shotguns?)
not8mihalis8boy: (lol)
firelight mystic: (it sure as hell ain't water)
LordStyphon01: (Shotguns don't use bullets)
firelight mystic: (point)
Nix527: that's rue, they don't()
not8mihalis8boy: (that's right....they use
SHOT....which dissipates like a BITCH)
Nix527: Yep()
not8mihalis8boy: (They're gonna get SPLATTERED)
firelight mystic: (I wish I were in bed, i wish I were in bed, I wish i
were in bed.....)
Nix527: (again, leaky piece of meat)
firelight mystic: (Not Traci. She's has Time 3)
Nix527: You still have to succeed on a rool alicia()
not8mihalis8boy: Traci, you hear a grunt and a
splat, followed by a moan
WuseMajor: (i rather hope that agent keller lives)
firelight mystic: (And I will.)
firelight mystic: ewww....
not8mihalis8boy: Eat shit and die, bitches!
firelight mystic: who went down?
WuseMajor: (he seemed salvagable)
not8mihalis8boy: (Not Alli)
firelight mystic: tell me it wasn't me.
WuseMajor: (the agents)
firelight mystic: (okay. as long as it wasn't me.)
Nix527: (gee, heaven forefend)
not8mihalis8boy: C'mon! Shoot me again, dickwad!
LordStyphon01: (forefend?)
WuseMajor: (when you travel with a force of nature you have to be
prepared for danger)
Nix527: (Forfend, noun meaning to prevent)
LordStyphon01: (Hmmm. New word time!)
not8mihalis8boy: Agent Smith, you hear twin
shotgun blasts, followed by a radio call "Uh, sir?
Bullets have no effect, and Johnston's been hit,
albeit not bad. What do we do?"
firelight mystic: (oh lord....)
not8mihalis8boy: (These are the ones with Mind
and Matter, and Spirit and Connection)
LordStyphon01: (There we go with the bullets again.)
Nix527: (verb, excuse me)
not8mihalis8boy: "That's what I thought. Eat
LIGHTNING!"
firelight mystic: *starts focusing on pendant for massive fireball. just
in case.*
not8mihalis8boy: (actually, shot comes in bullets)
WuseMajor: oh great
LordStyphon01: (Do they have shotguns or assault rifles?)
firelight mystic: (okay, do we really need to discuss technicalities?)
Nix527: (yes)
not8mihalis8boy: (Shotguns)
Nix527: (btw, what about the agents with me?)
firelight mystic: (I mean really, all i need to know is people are
shooting at me, it's gonna hurt, and I can die.)
not8mihalis8boy: (There's only one, and it's the
same dork who led you out...he's nervously
fingering a big gun, and sweating)
Nix527: "you ok buddy?"
firelight mystic: (most likely not)
Nix527: (silence peon)
not8mihalis8boy: "Uh....should I go out there?"
LordStyphon01: "They are quite intent on being troublesome, aren't
they?"
not8mihalis8boy: At that second, a lightning bolt
flies down the hallway
firelight mystic: (bite me)
not8mihalis8boy: Agent Smith, you can FEEL it go
by, and the radio goes dead
not8mihalis8boy: 'WU! Where ARE YOU!"
Nix527: "personally, I wouldn't, but think how your supiriors would
feel if they found out about your display of cowardice?"
WuseMajor: "really they get so worked up"
WuseMajor: "HERE."
not8mihalis8boy: He pokes his head out into the hall
firelight mystic: (smart.....)
not8mihalis8boy: <turns to Traci> "See. Subtle. Not
a fireball. A lightning bolt."
firelight mystic: Right.
firelight mystic: remind to get you in front a dictionary later, if we
get out of this
WuseMajor: (oh yeah, reall subtle)
not8mihalis8boy: Agent turns back to Gemini:
"Cowardice it is. Definitely cowardice. FUCK ME,
she's scary."
Nix527: (I whack him at the base of the skull with my
baton/undeployed scythe)
not8mihalis8boy: "Look who's talking."
firelight mystic: WU, GET YOUR ASS OUT HERE!!!!!!
not8mihalis8boy: Roll to hit
WuseMajor: "do you mind?"
firelight mystic: Yes!
firelight mystic: where are you!
not8mihalis8boy: (did I mention Alli has
Notoriety--as a blatant trouble magnet)
firelight mystic: *mutters* crazy bitches
not8mihalis8boy: "Hi. What are you doing with Wu?"
WuseMajor: "do you mind if i go out there so they don't destroy
your whole base?"
LordStyphon01: "Talking."
not8mihalis8boy: (roll damage.....I assume you're
trying to subdue?)
firelight mystic: Wu, are you okay?
Nix527: yes, why kill such a useful agent?()
not8mihalis8boy: ('kay....roll damage)
WuseMajor: "he just wanted to know about the time we took out
the dean."
Nix527: 3 succeess
not8mihalis8boy: "Didn't I see you with that weird
scarred chick?"
firelight mystic: (hey, give me some credit. do you honestly think
i'm glonna blow up a building?)
WuseMajor: "yea she is here somewhere"
firelight mystic: (Weird scarred chick?)
not8mihalis8boy: (Bam....he's unconscious)
Nix527: (is that arhetorical question)
firelight mystic: (hey, that was TERRI, not TRACI)
LordStyphon01: (Close enough)
not8mihalis8boy: (what do you do now?)
firelight mystic: (thanx a lot)
Nix527: (I disarm him and go down the hall to join the rest of the
group)
firelight mystic: (who, me?)
firelight mystic: (oh.)
not8mihalis8boy: (indeed...Alicia, I was comparing
Traci and Terri's character sheet, and......we
need to talk)
not8mihalis8boy: Smith "So, you mind? You've got a
simple choice. Help us, or die. You seem to
have trouble making up your mind."
Nix527: "He's got a mind?"
firelight mystic: Hey, what's with all the threats.
WuseMajor: "i'm supprised."
Nix527: "yeah, me too"
not8mihalis8boy: Alli to Smith "Heh. I'll make it
simple. You kidnapped my friend. You said you
want to help us. These do not mesh."
firelight mystic: no kidding
LordStyphon01: "You can kill me, but you'll only acquire another
active set of enemies."
not8mihalis8boy: "Make a decision. Hint, it's the one
your reptile brain makes for you. Survival."
Nix527: "much in the same way that bullets don't mesh with human
flesh'
firelight mystic: quite true
not8mihalis8boy: "So? I've got a LOT of enemies,
and so does Traci."
firelight mystic: oh yeah, let's drag me into this....
WuseMajor: "well it wasn't so much a kidnapping as a firm
request..."
not8mihalis8boy: "What? You DO."
Nix527: "I don't have many, but I seem to be starting quite the
collection"
not8mihalis8boy: Speaking of which.....
firelight mystic: I don't air YOUR laundry!
firelight mystic: (oh no.......)
not8mihalis8boy: You hear distant howls, coming
closer
firelight mystic: (FUCK)
not8mihalis8boy: It occurs to you that dusk is falling
firelight mystic: (Oh shit................)
not8mihalis8boy: And you're in the industrial part of
town.
WuseMajor: (and the werewolves are out...)
Nix527: (warewolves?)
not8mihalis8boy: (that's ONE guess)
Nix527: (were....)
firelight mystic: *starts focusing on a massive fireball*
not8mihalis8boy: Agent Kessler wanders in, rubbing
his head. "Did I miss something?"
firelight mystic: we're gonna die
Nix527: slaps traci "screw the F-ball just get ready to run"
WuseMajor: to keller "don't worry. just stand over there."
firelight mystic: screw running.
LordStyphon01: "Keller, when we get through this, you're getting an
all expenses paid trip to Siberia
LordStyphon01: "
not8mihalis8boy: Alli pulls out a piece of chalk, and
starts inscribing a circle around everyone
firelight mystic: *continues on that fireball*
WuseMajor: "if you don't want him, i'll take him."
not8mihalis8boy: "Sir? It's not my fault, sir!"
not8mihalis8boy: "Really?"
Nix527: "oh, a ward this oughtta be good then"
LordStyphon01: "You know, I could just let the HIT Marks take
care of them."
not8mihalis8boy: "Uh, I thought RDs didn't utilize
advanced technology?"
WuseMajor: (you have hit marks?)
not8mihalis8boy: "This ISN'T a ward. We're booking."
Nix527: (duh)
firelight mystic: good.
not8mihalis8boy: "Gimme a minute."
not8mihalis8boy: "Traci, watch the door"
firelight mystic: count on it.
Nix527: "then I suggest you hurry, those sound like hungry howls
firelight mystic: and the windows....
firelight mystic: and the walls.....
not8mihalis8boy: "Agent Smith, close your eyes. You
don't want to see this."
firelight mystic: IT WASN'T MY FAULT!
firelight mystic: REALLY!|
not8mihalis8boy: (actually, the room you're in only
has one door)
WuseMajor: (if you had MISS marks then why weren't the ready
and waithing?)
LordStyphon01: "SHUT UP!"
Nix527: (reflective surfaces too)
firelight mystic: nice.
firelight mystic: Hey, you're not the one with the werewolves after
you!
LordStyphon01: No, I'm not
firelight mystic: I have a right to be worried!
Nix527: (if they are werewolves, they'll utilise the Umbra as much as
possible)
firelight mystic: (still watching that door, and prepping fireball, btw)
WuseMajor: (actually if they ever figure out what happened in
central park Alli will too...)
firelight mystic: (I say we blame it all on her. She was the one that
flipped into Berseker mode, not me.)
WuseMajor: (have werewolf enemies i mean)
firelight mystic: (I know.)
firelight mystic: (she started it!)
not8mihalis8boy: You hear claws clicking on tile
WuseMajor: (do you really want to risk that again?)
Nix527: ( I step out of the circle) You guys go, I'll talk to them"
firelight mystic: Are you NUTS?!?
Nix527: "maybe, but It'll buy time"
not8mihalis8boy: "Done. Get back inside! Arcua
Lucem! Fiat Ventus!
firelight mystic: I'm there.
Nix527: "No go!"
not8mihalis8boy: Gemini, are you inside the circle?
Nix527: No
firelight mystic: get in!
not8mihalis8boy: The circle disappears
Nix527: Good
not8mihalis8boy: And then the roof explodes
outwards
Nix527: Wonderful()
firelight mystic: (damn)
not8mihalis8boy: Everyone in the circle: You're
flying
firelight mystic: nice.....
not8mihalis8boy: ....and you're starting to wobble....
not8mihalis8boy: "AGENT SMITH! CLOSE YOUR
EYES!!!"
LordStyphon01: "Why?"
Nix527: (btw, werewolves are familiar with the mark of the phoenix
totem)
not8mihalis8boy: Gemini.....a pack runs into you
not8mihalis8boy: Indeed, they are
firelight mystic: probably paradox.....
not8mihalis8boy: If they're paying attention....
firelight mystic: just close em
firelight mystic: please!
not8mihalis8boy: "BECAUSE YOU DON'T BELIEVE!!!
WE'RE GROWING UNSTABLE, DAMNIT!!!"
WuseMajor: (are you familer with unbelife?)
firelight mystic: dying was not on my to-do list, tonight!
not8mihalis8boy: There is a great wind rushing past
not8mihalis8boy: You can feel the circle growing
soft
Nix527: (strangeness time, the whole wings of fire thing manifests
itself in reality about now)
not8mihalis8boy: Wu, Agent Keller is clutching you
tightly, eyes closed, and praying
firelight mystic: (can I try to cast a Force spell to keep us aloft?)
not8mihalis8boy: (sure....that's what she did)
WuseMajor: Praying, huh
not8mihalis8boy: (Try to get 3 more successes)
firelight mystic: (okay. what' s the diff?)
not8mihalis8boy: Praying to a LOT of different
things, actually, including technology
not8mihalis8boy: Okay....
not8mihalis8boy: shit
not8mihalis8boy: A bright light shines down from
the heavens
Nix527: (See, i'd rather take my chances with the 7 foot snarling
beasts)
firelight mystic: um.....3 successes
not8mihalis8boy: Gemini, you and the Garou are
blinded and stunned by the apparition above
you
firelight mystic: (i sense major bad luck in the future)
Nix527: k
Nix527: ()
WuseMajor: well no advanced tech is going to work in this area for
days
not8mihalis8boy: Everybody aboard the U.S.S.
Invisible Flying Magic Circle with their eyes
open, you see an angel with black wings, and a
strange goddess come down out of the sky,
filling it with holy and unholy light
firelight mystic: (YAY!!!!)
firelight mystic: (that would be me...)
WuseMajor: oh, boy
not8mihalis8boy: (AND Alli)
firelight mystic: (can I talk to Brigit?)
not8mihalis8boy: The two embrace, and then, hand
in hand, reach down and lift the circle high
into the sky
WuseMajor: why do i get a sense of impending doom?
WuseMajor: whew
firelight mystic: (cuz you're very smart)
not8mihalis8boy: The circle rises, and you hear
whispering
firelight mystic: (i'm listening)
firelight mystic: (what's it say)
Nix527: (he's probably typing word for word out of the quest book)
firelight mystic: (lol)
not8mihalis8boy: nope
Nix527: (be patient)
not8mihalis8boy: hang on
not8mihalis8boy: "London. Cairo. Hong Kong.
Australia. December 4th, 2002. F'niglooee
migllw'nath Ctoo'h'oolhoo Re'lieh
w'gah'nagell fhit'ag'n!
Nix527: Wow, fun()
firelight mystic: (That's my BIRTHDAY....)
not8mihalis8boy: Nyaar'lath-o-tep! Beware the dark
sun/son (you can't tell)!
not8mihalis8boy: YOU MUST JOIN, OR ALL IS LOST!
firelight mystic: (who's saying what?)
Nix527: ( in the meantime me and the garou are having tea)
firelight mystic: (riiight)
not8mihalis8boy: Then you are visited by visions of a
dark and horrible future, which your mind
immediately protectively blanks out, such is
the horror
WuseMajor: (i start mentally working on plans for a joining device)
not8mihalis8boy: Gemini, you find yourself being
lifted into the air, and entering the glowing
bulb
firelight mystic: (I hate being a seer........)
firelight mystic: (welcome to the party)
Nix527: (does not work well with others
firelight mystic: (who?)
Nix527: (me)
not8mihalis8boy: The two quasi-gods are fusing
now, speaking with one voice, not just in
unison
firelight mystic: (quasi gods?)
not8mihalis8boy: (a fallen angel and a goddess)
firelight mystic: (don't tell me they're merging!!!!!)
not8mihalis8boy: Then everything begins to fade,
and you hear two whispered words: "Jackson
Elias."
Nix527: ( you know, this game would be more exciting in general if
the whole storyline didn't revolve around preventing Apocolypse)
not8mihalis8boy: (heh)
WuseMajor: (i wonder if i could get a bilatteral pattern fusion suit)
firelight mystic: (as do all the games we usually wind up in.....)
Nix527: (so I've found)
LordStyphon01: (This is why I don't RP much)
not8mihalis8boy: You also hear a cackling laugh in
the back of your heads, that you feel you're
not supposed to hear "You're not important."
firelight mystic: (I'm starting to sympathize......)
not8mihalis8boy: (oh? Why?)
not8mihalis8boy: (HEY!)
Nix527: (me too)
not8mihalis8boy: (She's the one who got a 19
paradox boon!)
firelight mystic: (Wow....)
firelight mystic: (and who was the one who decimated Central
Park?!?)
Nix527: (and you had to drag my character along didn't you)
WuseMajor: (who was told that they were not important?)
not8mihalis8boy: You find yourselves floating over
NYC.....and the bubble is wobbling
firelight mystic: (all of us.)
firelight mystic: oh hell......
WuseMajor: (ah)
not8mihalis8boy: Alli turns to you, Gemini: "Wanna
get off? Go ahead."
Nix527: (how many forces do you need to fly?)
not8mihalis8boy: (2)
firelight mystic: (2)
Nix527: (well then hot damn I'm flyin solo, so to speak)
not8mihalis8boy: okay....Gemini jumps off and floats
down
firelight mystic: (definately not the team player....)
not8mihalis8boy: Agent Smith, what's your
reaction?
firelight mystic: great.....we're fragmenting.....
not8mihalis8boy: Oh....then Agent Keller opens his
eyes, and it all goes to hell
Nix527: (i'm going to go try and talk to the garou)
firelight mystic: when I don't have to worry about breaking my
neck from the FALL!
firelight mystic: (SHIT)
not8mihalis8boy: The bubble breaks, and the whole
party falls
WuseMajor: i pull out my comp and start converting cement into
foam rubber
not8mihalis8boy: If you have Forces, roll (diff 5, 1
success)
firelight mystic: (casts a forces spell to slow decent.)
Nix527: (sometimes it's good not to be a team player)
not8mihalis8boy: Wu, you don't have time
firelight mystic: fortune die..........8
firelight mystic: 5 sucesses
not8mihalis8boy: Wu...I'm very, very sorry....roll soak
WuseMajor: (i hope my next character survives longer)
Nix527: (ouch)
not8mihalis8boy: (It's not a very big fall)
firelight mystic: (help, I've fallen and I can't get up....._
Nix527: (still, ouch)
not8mihalis8boy: Everyone lands okay
firelight mystic: (aspirin can't help that......)
not8mihalis8boy: Wu, what's your soak
WuseMajor: what is the diff?
not8mihalis8boy: 6
WuseMajor: i got zero
firelight mystic: (good luck.)
WuseMajor: a nine and a 1
WuseMajor: bye
Nix527: (as the ST, will you let me try and talk to the Garou, or are
you already comming up with a plot to divert me?)
not8mihalis8boy: okay...damn....ow....you take 3
health levels
not8mihalis8boy: (no, you're a loner.....go ahead)
WuseMajor: i'm not dead yay!
firelight mystic: (Hmmmmm......that's gotta smart.....)
not8mihalis8boy: the Garou pick themselves up,
look around, point at the fallen group, and
the leader snarls
WuseMajor: i'm dead boo
not8mihalis8boy: They immediately try to charge
past you
not8mihalis8boy: What do you do?
firelight mystic: (damnit.......)
WuseMajor: i'm not dead yay!
Nix527: "Hey, what's going on, why are you chasing us?"
firelight mystic: get out their way
not8mihalis8boy: "Not you, Phoenix! Grrrl!"
not8mihalis8boy: points at either Wu, Alli, or
Traci.....you're not sure
Nix527: "who then, that one *points to traci*?"
firelight mystic: thanks a lot....
not8mihalis8boy: lead ones got you beat with 15,
and the second one ties
not8mihalis8boy: got any more dodge?
firelight mystic: yeah.
Nix527: (Hello, strageness)
not8mihalis8boy: Yes, Gemini, you can try to
summon your Totem
firelight mystic: (wait---I can dodge still, I didn't use any dec.)
firelight mystic: (dex)
not8mihalis8boy: roll it
Nix527: (I don't think it would be a conscieous choice in this case)
firelight mystic: willpower
not8mihalis8boy: Unfortunately, Alli got an 11
firelight mystic: 3
not8mihalis8boy: you need 3
not8mihalis8boy: okay
not8mihalis8boy: now dodge the simultaneous one
not8mihalis8boy: and roll Arete
firelight mystic: 2 on the next dodge.....
Nix527: (strangeness would just allow it to happen, but if you want
me to roll for it, what at waht?)
not8mihalis8boy: (Nix, rp it)
not8mihalis8boy: (It happens)
firelight mystic: 4 successes on the arete
not8mihalis8boy: (how are you getting 2 on your
third dodge?)
not8mihalis8boy: (What are you rolling?)
WuseMajor: (great, i'm going to be healing for a week and a half)
Nix527: suddenly, a bright burst of flame shoots ot of Gemini's
sholders and begins to form wings of fire.
not8mihalis8boy: The fourth Garou is distracted
not8mihalis8boy: As is the one that missed
not8mihalis8boy: actually, roll initiative
not8mihalis8boy: (Alicia, where's that third Dodge
coming from?)
Nix527: who()
LordStyphon01: (*yawn*)
not8mihalis8boy: (you)
not8mihalis8boy: Feel free to intervene, Ben
firelight mystic: (straight dodge)
Nix527: wits + alertness+ 1d10 yes?()
LordStyphon01: (Why? I didn't do anything to them)
firelight mystic: ( ihaven't been using any dex.)
not8mihalis8boy: (I thought you used your Dodge
against the FIRST one)
not8mihalis8boy: (yes, Nix)
Nix527: 15
not8mihalis8boy: (Actually, it's immaterial, since it
got 3 successes)
firelight mystic: (i thought I could keep dodging as long as I didn't
use any dex)
firelight mystic: (oh shit.....)
not8mihalis8boy: Ok....what does the Avatar do?
Nix527: After manifestation is speaks
not8mihalis8boy: (Alicia: NO....you have a DICE
POOL...which has as many dice in it as your
Dexterity + Dodge, that you can split
however you want)
firelight mystic: (why does everything always want to kill me!)
firelight mystic: (ooohh..............)
not8mihalis8boy: (Because you took a lot of
enemies)
firelight mystic: (that mean I have six........)
Nix527: "My children stop this foolishness, do you really believe that
this girl is of th wyrm?"
LordStyphon01: (Maybe its an attitude problem)
firelight mystic: (werewolves wasn't one of them!)
firelight mystic: (I've been nice!)
firelight mystic: (hell, my main areas are social!)
WuseMajor: (you shouldn't have taken enemy everone if you didn't
want everone to try to kill you)
LordStyphon01: (Maybe you should stop doing anything)
not8mihalis8boy: Actually, Pheonix would know why
they want her, and wouldn't intervene
firelight mystic: (I didn't take a bunch of enemies! Just two!
Nix527: (really?)
firelight mystic: (damnit.....)
not8mihalis8boy: It's NOT because she's Wyrm
spawn
not8mihalis8boy: They want the necklace
not8mihalis8boy: sorry
firelight mystic: (then why?)
firelight mystic: it's attached to my skin!
not8mihalis8boy: I'll tell you in a sec
Nix527: Then scratch the previous statement()
not8mihalis8boy: Because you just took 7 health
levels, and started flying off
not8mihalis8boy: Or would, except that you
immediately fall, because you're now
unconscious
firelight mystic: damnit......
not8mihalis8boy: Is anyone intervening other than
Alli?
not8mihalis8boy: And it's aggravated, so you can't
soak
firelight mystic: (damn.)
firelight mystic: (i don't wanna die.......)
Nix527: (i'm trying)
firelight mystic: (i didn't even do anything this time!!!!)
not8mihalis8boy: (Intervene in other ways...the
necklace doesn't belong to her)
not8mihalis8boy: (It's a Bete Artifact)
firelight mystic: (it's attached to my skin!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Nix527: The avatar moves over to alicia's fallen form and sears the
neaklace off of traci's body?)
firelight mystic: (it's not coming off unless they chop of my neck!)
LordStyphon01: (THIEF!)
not8mihalis8boy: (Specifically, Nuwisha....and
they've been looking for it for a thousand
years)
firelight mystic: (HEY!! HAND'S OFF!)
not8mihalis8boy: The Pheonix turns, and hands the
necklace to the Garou
firelight mystic: (I can't work magic without that!)
not8mihalis8boy: (yeah, except that was ALSO her
focus)
LordStyphon01: (The Chronicles of THIEF)
Nix527: "here my children, what was wrong is now set right"
firelight mystic: (NO IT"S NOT!!!!!!!!!!!)
firelight mystic: (Thanks a lot)
WuseMajor: (actually, unless those are Nuwisha not really)
Nix527: *the manifestation returns into Gemini and she collapses,
exhausted*
not8mihalis8boy: <switches to homid> "Thank you,
Pheonix. Well and honorably met." <bows>
"We shall take this, and spread the tale of the
human who wears your skin."
not8mihalis8boy: (No, but they were sent on this by
a Nuwisha. Recognize the wicked sense of
humor?)
firelight mystic: (HEY, a little DEFENSE here!)
firelight mystic: (NO kiddihng.)
firelight mystic: (THIS SUCKS)
not8mihalis8boy: (I'm sorry, Alicia. Remember how I
said you could and should pay more points for
the amulet?)
WuseMajor: (i haven't seen any sign of humor yet)
Nix527: (you were defended, they would've torn you apart if my
avatar hadn't interveened
not8mihalis8boy: (You wound up with the 5 point
enemy: Nuwisha. ALL Nuwisha)
firelight mystic: (yeah, but you just jacked me. I can't work
magic......)
not8mihalis8boy: (I TOLD you to pay more for it)
firelight mystic: (no you didn't)
not8mihalis8boy: (yes, I did)
firelight mystic: (FUCK)
Nix527: Hey, argue on your own time()
not8mihalis8boy: (And you CAN still do magic)
firelight mystic: (With what?!?)
not8mihalis8boy: (Trust me. You're not fucked.)
WuseMajor: (you just think you can't)
firelight mystic: (I feel that way.()
not8mihalis8boy: (You just have to learn/craft a
new focus)
Nix527: (you could've been though)
firelight mystic: (Great.........and until then, I'll probably DIE_)
not8mihalis8boy: (I know. You're unhappy. You
could be dead. You could not take so many
damned enemies and secret shit.)
firelight mystic: (WHAT SECERET!)
firelight mystic: the only enemy I bought was BRaxton and the
damn Technocracy for the College incident!
not8mihalis8boy: (And the Demon. Which you just
lost)
Nix527: (alicia! the games just begun! There is much to come, calm
down)
firelight mystic: joy and rapture, I'm still screwed.
firelight mystic: (I want it back.)
firelight mystic: (i feel violated.)
LordStyphon01: (Blood and Martyrs. Shut up!)
not8mihalis8boy: (The Amulet. I told you you can
pay 1-5 points for it, and the more points you
pay, the better off you were. You could pay
the full SIX points only if you took Dark Secret,
indicating that no-one knew you had it)
firelight mystic: (i 'm done now, don't worry.)
Nix527: Think how the Nuwisha felt()
not8mihalis8boy: (Indeed....that necklace is sacred
to them)
firelight mystic: (what's so important about it to them?!?!)
WuseMajor: (you should feel lucky, with all Nuwisha as an enemy
that almost includes Coyote)
firelight mystic: (how so?)
Nix527: (cough...sacred....cough)
not8mihalis8boy: (It's a level Five Nuwisha Artifact)
firelight mystic: (thanks for telling.)
not8mihalis8boy: (Made by Coyote himself to aid in
fighting the Wyrm)
WuseMajor: (oy)
not8mihalis8boy: (oops....level SIX)
firelight mystic: (when I worked that out, it was just a seal for
keeping a demon trapped in the UMBRA)
firelight mystic: (remember, we agreed to that.)
not8mihalis8boy: (It detects any Wyrm-spawn, and
it can open a gate into the Umbra)
WuseMajor: (i bet manyskins has been looking for it)
Nix527: (the umbra and the real world are closley related, what's
true for one is true for the other.)
not8mihalis8boy: (yep....who do you think told the
Garou that she was Wyrm-spawn?)
firelight mystic: (damn you to hell......)
firelight mystic: I'm not Wyrm-Spawn!
not8mihalis8boy: (Look on the bright side.....Nix
saved Allison, too)
firelight mystic: if they bothered to look, they could tell!
Nix527: (you might as well have been)
not8mihalis8boy: (Yeah, but Manyskins LIED to get
the necklace....they ALSO think he's
Garou......)
firelight mystic: (no offense, but screw Alli.......I very unhappy at
the moment.)
firelight mystic: (OH GOD......)
not8mihalis8boy: (The point is that I had PLANNED
for BOTH of them to die.....)
firelight mystic: (MANYSKINS, as in.......................)
firelight mystic: (David, you haven't)
not8mihalis8boy: (Yes. Old Man Manyskins.)
firelight mystic: (TEll me you didn't.........)
Nix527: (ha, I really saved your ass)
not8mihalis8boy: (Didn't what?)
firelight mystic: (AS IN THE SKINNER?)
firelight mystic: (AS IN SAMUEL HATE!)
not8mihalis8boy: (NO! Old Man Manyskins is a
Nuwisha)
firelight mystic: (Oh .
firelight mystic: (That one.)
not8mihalis8boy: (The Nuwisha in EVERY changing
breeds book)
firelight mystic: (Damn pranksters.........)
firelight mystic: (no kidding.....)
not8mihalis8boy: (the 150 year old PLUS Nuwisha,
who is Coyote's PERSONAL favorite)
firelight mystic: ( you had me *really worried* for a sec.)
not8mihalis8boy: (,,,,,and it's Samuel Haight)
firelight mystic: (i saw conclusions, I lept...)
firelight mystic: (true.)
WuseMajor has left the room. firelight mystic: (still, the other spelling's more appropriate....)
not8mihalis8boy: (NOW.....this gives you the
opportunity to learn a NEW KIND OF MAGIC)
WuseMajor has entered the room.
firelight mystic: (I still feel violated.....)
Nix527: ( you are no longer limited by an object)
firelight mystic: (see above.)
WuseMajor: (sorry my connection broke what did i miss?)
firelight mystic: (i feel robbed.....)
WuseMajor: (last thing was firelight mystic: (I still feel
violated.....))
Nix527: (Didn't you read, the ST planned for you to die, as is my
understanding)
firelight mystic: (yup.)
LordStyphon01: (I fell annoyed)
firelight mystic: (yeah. I feel that too.)
not8mihalis8boy: (Perk up, realize it's only a material
possession, learn not to put all your eggs in
one basket--fetish and focus, learn to not
twink, and be glad you have a second
chance)
firelight mystic: (blagh, you. You'll pay later. Anyway, moving
on.....)
WuseMajor: (david my connection cut out what did i miss?)
not8mihalis8boy: (Ok. If anyone is unhappy for
reasons OTHER than the obvious, like this is
too gritty, let me know?)
firelight mystic: (not twink?)
not8mihalis8boy: (not much....don't worry)
firelight mystic: (just me bitching for a bit. I'm done now, though.
Just had to get it out.)
Nix527: (gemini, was not awake long enough to know what the
garou said, and is now passed out on the street)
WuseMajor: (send me a copy of the transcript when this is done,
ok?)
not8mihalis8boy: (You also came up two points
better off, if that makes you feel better)
not8mihalis8boy: (ok)
firelight mystic: (huh?)
not8mihalis8boy: (you only missed two lines,
though)
firelight mystic: (waitasec....................I'm still gutted, though!)
not8mihalis8boy: (You're in a coma, suffering from
massive trauma, but alive)
LordStyphon01: ()
firelight mystic: (like I said, I won't argue)
Nix527: (WOO HOO My AVATAR ROCKS!)
not8mihalis8boy: (yeah, but she's
right.....technically, she's at 8)
firelight mystic: (yeah......_
firelight mystic: (this sucked.....)
LordStyphon01: (which means she's dead)
not8mihalis8boy: So
WuseMajor: (and i was depressed by 3 health levels)
Nix527: (act of god)
firelight mystic: (at least you're able to MOVE)
Nix527: (she''s still alive through supernatural intervention)
firelight mystic: (you have the equivalent of a broken arm!)
firelight mystic: (or leg)
firelight mystic: (hell and damnation)
Nix527: (you're not the only one who's passed out here)
not8mihalis8boy: Now that everyone has worked off
their Paradox (except Wu), and owes the
gods a BIG favor (except Wu), what are you
going to do?
firelight mystic: *grumble*
firelight mystic: am I awake?
firelight mystic: ()
not8mihalis8boy: (no)
Nix527: I'm out cold()
firelight mystic: (i lie there then, nearly dead)
not8mihalis8boy: Alli looks around, open mouthed,
hand ready to fling death....and thinks
firelight mystic: (but I'm not bitter.....)
not8mihalis8boy: Uh....hrrm....
Nix527: (and will awaken with no knowledge of events as they
transpired once the avatar manifested)
firelight mystic: (till she notices she's lacking something very
important to her....)
not8mihalis8boy: Agent Smith? I'm sorry. This seems
to happen a lot. Would you, of your own free
will, help us?
Nix527: (Strangeness is cool that way)
WuseMajor: i want to go to the campus doctor, unless i can get
some healing here, which seems unlikly
firelight mystic: (but i'm not bitter....)
not8mihalis8boy: "I think....I think I need some quiet
time."
firelight mystic: (i told you I was done.)
WuseMajor: (i will help you build a new talisman when i get better)
firelight mystic: (thanx)
firelight mystic: (oh well....moving on.....)
not8mihalis8boy: (I've got a better idea: join the
Celestial Chorus and just PRAY to Brighde)
Nix527: (gee, I seem to remember that it's getting dark and I'm in the
middle of the street unconscious!)
not8mihalis8boy: Actually, you're all lying in the
destroyed remnants of a building
WuseMajor: well i can't teleport others
firelight mystic: (I hate the Chorus with a passion)
Nix527: (still, unconscious)
firelight mystic: (I'll stay Wicca, and Verbena)
not8mihalis8boy: Wu has a broken leg, Gemini and
Traci are unconscious, and Alli just got a
glazed look in her eye.....
firelight mystic: (oh hell.....)
WuseMajor: oh great
not8mihalis8boy: The Technocrats are okay,
although Agent Keller has picked up Wu and
is carrying her out of the room, looking to be
in shock
Nix527: (and will awaken with one hellofva headache, micheal keep
those chewable asprin handy)
WuseMajor: that means that the only one really here is agent smith
firelight mystic: (lol)\
not8mihalis8boy: (Wu? I think you just got a
disciple)
WuseMajor: (cool)
firelight mystic: (lucky....)
not8mihalis8boy: (Wu and Keller, sittin' in a tree.....)
firelight mystic: (oh god no....)
Nix527: (k-i-l-l-i-n-g)
not8mihalis8boy: Agent Smith? Still there?
WuseMajor: (talking about b-i-o-l-o-g-y)
firelight mystic: (doesn't make the rhyme scheme, silly....)
not8mihalis8boy: (Now I remember why I never USE
store-bought adventures.....oh, well)
not8mihalis8boy: (they're still cool adventures)
Nix527: (if you're not dead yet, chances are you have a pretty good
survival chance)
not8mihalis8boy: (He's only MOSTLY dead....)
firelight mystic: (love that optimism. I'll remember that.)
LordStyphon01: I get my cell phone and call Higher Authority.
firelight mystic: (see?)
not8mihalis8boy: Is this a secure line?
WuseMajor: (why don't you use store-bought adventures?)
Nix527: (your cell phone's dead
not8mihalis8boy: (Because nobody ever bites the
hook. Ever.)
LordStyphon01: Yes
Nix527: Hello, electro-magnetic radiation due to the extreme use of
prime)
not8mihalis8boy: "Report."
WuseMajor: (feh, you just aren't trying)
not8mihalis8boy: (not an issue)
firelight mystic: (he's got a point....)
firelight mystic: (damnit.)
LordStyphon01: (Technocrat ES cell phone)
firelight mystic: (starts finding pen and paper to roll up a new
character....)
Nix527: (damn)
not8mihalis8boy: (Prime doesn't do that. Forces
does, and only with that specific use)
Nix527: (oh well, I did try)
firelight mystic: (never hurts)
not8mihalis8boy: (You could always play Agent
Keller......)
firelight mystic: (thanx for the gesture.)
firelight mystic: (no technocrats.)
not8mihalis8boy: (He's not a Techno anymore.....)
Nix527: (I don't know about you, but I'm not dying)
firelight mystic: (maybe a Syndicate willworker....)
LordStyphon01: "Sir, I have the three RDs I was assigned to find,
plus another"
not8mihalis8boy: (Neither of you are....you just may
wish you were)
not8mihalis8boy: And?
not8mihalis8boy: Report
Nix527: (I can't wait until someone tries to touch me)
LordStyphon01: "They were just attacked by a pack of
Werewolves"
not8mihalis8boy: (remember, your mission was to
find out what the hell went down)
firelight mystic: I( don't intend to either. But that doesn't mean I'm
not prepared for the strong likelihood I will.)
not8mihalis8boy: I see. They survived?
LordStyphon01: "Yes, sir."
not8mihalis8boy: (You're not sure Traci's alive)
firelight mystic: (joy)
LordStyphon01: "At least, some of them are. I believe the third is as
well."
not8mihalis8boy: Significance
WuseMajor: (they might not care that much about us...except for all
the stuff we pulled in the last day or so)
firelight mystic: (next time Ben, play a Virtual Adept or Euthanatos
or something.)
firelight mystic: (well, not Euthanatos.)
Nix527: (you mean you pulled, I had little to nothing to do with your
little Nephandi thing)
not8mihalis8boy: (hehehe....then he'd give you The
Good Death to stop your OOC whining <g>
jk)
LordStyphon01: (I just don't fit in right as a Mage. I'm in my own as
a Technocrat)
WuseMajor: (unless you can get one right don't play an Euthanatos)
firelight mystic: (I'm not whining. I'm godfing around to kill time.)
LordStyphon01: (Yeah, like her first character)
firelight mystic: (not funny.)
not8mihalis8boy: (Exactly)
not8mihalis8boy: Significance, Agent Smith?
LordStyphon01: "Sir, they appear not to be Nephani, but Tradition
mages."
firelight mystic: (momma, just killed a man.....put a gun against his
head, pulled my trigger, now he's dead...)
WuseMajor: (state what you were supposed to find out)
not8mihalis8boy: I see. Their involvement?
Nix527: (oh, if I ever find out you called me a Tradition Mage,
you're in big trouble)
LordStyphon01: "They are all in various levels of incapacitation, and
can brought to a secure location for further questioning."
firelight mystic: (momma, life has just begun, and now I've gone
and thrown it all away....)
Nix527: (please alicia, stop will you?)
firelight mystic: (okay.)
LordStyphon01: "They have told me that they caused the explosion
to kill the dean, who was a Nephandus."
firelight mystic: ;-)
WuseMajor: (sing bohemian rapsody on your own time)
not8mihalis8boy: I see. Bring them in for
assimilation.
firelight mystic: (but it's so great.....and it's playing on my
earphones right now....couldn't help it.)
not8mihalis8boy: Any further questions?
Nix527: (oh no you don't)
firelight mystic: (that's it............Alli, snap out of it.....)
LordStyphon01: "Could I have some backup, sir? Two of my
agents were killed, and Keller may have been compromised."
firelight mystic: (may have? He's in love....)
not8mihalis8boy: (Like I said....she needs some Quiet
time)
Nix527: (awww)
WuseMajor: ('i am dislexic of borg. prepare to have your ass
laminated.')
not8mihalis8boy: (lol)
Nix527: (oh great, quieting)
firelight mystic: (just what we need....)
not8mihalis8boy: <the line is quiet for a second>
WuseMajor: (greate one in quiet, and two uncontious)
not8mihalis8boy: Damn. I don't have anyone close.
firelight mystic: (and you're getting nooky....)
firelight mystic: (seems like you come out on top.)
Nix527: nookie not nooky()
WuseMajor: (just lucky, i guess)
firelight mystic: (my spelling is special. accept that.)
not8mihalis8boy: You're gonna have to do this
alone. But you're capable, Agent Smith. Bring
them to Houston within 48 hours for transfer
not8mihalis8boy: (Michael has been A. feeling
useless, and B. didn't twink his character like
me and Alicia did)
firelight mystic: (jk)
firelight mystic: (what is twinking?!?!!)
Nix527: I'm soryy, twink?()
not8mihalis8boy: (Munchkin, power-gaming)
WuseMajor: (munchkining)
firelight mystic: (since when do i power game!?!)
LordStyphon01: (Tweaking, maybe?)
Nix527: ????()
not8mihalis8boy: Over and out.
not8mihalis8boy: (Twink. As in Twinkie.)
Nix527: The yellow cream-filled treat?()
LordStyphon01: I hang up the phone
not8mihalis8boy: (of course, there are OTHER
problems associated with giving haven to a
rogue Technocrat, Michael...this is not all joy
and gumdrops.....)
not8mihalis8boy: (Yep.)
WuseMajor: (since you can trhow giant fireballs and summon a
godess)
WuseMajor: (i know)
firelight mystic: (she's my avatar!)
WuseMajor: (your avatar is a goddes and that isn't powergaming?)
firelight mystic: (Again, YOU ARE WASHU!)
firelight mystic: (you cannot talk.)
not8mihalis8boy: (actually, it's more the Forces 3,
Life 2, Prime 2, Spirit 2, Time 3, and long list of
flaws)
WuseMajor: (i'm washu as a low power person)
Nix527: ( hey, I have legitimate limates to my power)
not8mihalis8boy: (and Wu is BASED on Washu)
firelight mystic: (hey--I made her interesting!)
firelight mystic: (and they were legitimate flaws, and all fit with her
history!)
WuseMajor: (and short lived)
firelight mystic: (that was a low blow....)
Nix527: (A. I can't control it. and B.I don't remembr ever using it. )
WuseMajor: (yes but it was a history filled with enemies)
LordStyphon01: "KELLER! Put your pedophilic inclinations on hold
and get in here!"
not8mihalis8boy: (Nix: Yes, you munchkined the
Scythe, but that's it, and I'm letting you get
away with it, mostly because you don't show
up very often, so you're gaining less xp)
firelight mystic: (nope. not at all. Just a crappy Awakening.)
Nix527: (I'm intentionally keeping it low profile
firelight mystic: (and the wrong family to be born into.)
not8mihalis8boy: Smith: He's gone, and Wu is in her
20's
firelight mystic: (cue porn music....)
WuseMajor: (you have 12 dots in spheres and you don't call that
powergaming?)
Nix527: (I could just let loose Armaggeddeon and be done with it,
but I don't)
LordStyphon01: (Will you shut up?)
firelight mystic: (can we just move on?)
not8mihalis8boy: No more OOC comments for now
WuseMajor: (i was just thinking that your history could have been
less exciting)
not8mihalis8boy: I mean it
LordStyphon01: (I've been trying to move on)
not8mihalis8boy: chat in AIM
not8mihalis8boy: Now
not8mihalis8boy: IC
firelight mystic: okay.
firelight mystic: wait--i'm still out.
firelight mystic: nevermind
not8mihalis8boy: Agent Smith, what do you do?
LordStyphon01: Is the car still here?
Nix527: ha()
not8mihalis8boy: You go outside to find the car
gone
not8mihalis8boy: Keller had the keys
not8mihalis8boy: But Traci's car is there.....
firelight mystic: no.
LordStyphon01: "Great. Incompetant and a thief"
Nix527: (He's a man who knows what he wants)
LordStyphon01: Did he take Wu with him?
firelight mystic: what do you think?
not8mihalis8boy: Yes
LordStyphon01: I go back to where the others are lying in their
various states of incapacity.
not8mihalis8boy: Alli is muttering
LordStyphon01: I walk over to her
not8mihalis8boy: She looks at you, staring blankly
not8mihalis8boy: "F'niglooee migllw'nath
Ctoo'h'oolhoo Re'lieh w'gah'nagell fhit'ag'n!"
firelight mystic: great......C'thulu.
firelight mystic: just what we need....
LordStyphon01: "What does that mean?"
not8mihalis8boy: A deep, man's voice, older than
the stars, issues from her throat
not8mihalis8boy: "It means 'In his house at R'lyeh
dead Cthulhu waits dreaming,' and he'd
better damn stay that way!"
LordStyphon01: "Okaaaaay"
not8mihalis8boy: "In other words, somebody has to
stop the gate, or we're gonna be overrun by
Shoggoths, Deep Ones, Hounds of Tindalos,
Yyeth Hounds, Mi-go, and more."
not8mihalis8boy: "And my shell just went into
shell-shock."
not8mihalis8boy: "Want an Avatar?"
WuseMajor: (brb)
firelight mystic: (BTW, I need to talk to you about that In Nomine
game....)
LordStyphon01: "No, thank you."
Nix527: (this feels like a good place to stop for the time being. I'm
going to go be unconscious for real, I'll check you guys later. I'm
going to stay online and in th room so I can get the rest of the convo,
but other than that, I'm out.
not8mihalis8boy: "Damn. Will you help me snap her
out of it, then? It's that, or I actually have to
lead her through another damn Seeking, and
she's still a bit of a....what's the word?....twit."
not8mihalis8boy: ('kay....later)
Nix527: (Check ya)
LordStyphon01: "How, exactly?"
WuseMajor: b
not8mihalis8boy: "God, you humans are USELESS.
Didn't you invent ways to cure insanity yet?"
LordStyphon01: "Yes, but I'm not a psychiatrist.
LordStyphon01: "
not8mihalis8boy: "Fine. Ch'aktuioo Yoo'mien."
not8mihalis8boy: She lapses back into catatonia
not8mihalis8boy: (Anyone wanna run Allison's
Seeking? Maybe teach me a lesson or two?)
firelight mystic: that was pointless.)
WuseMajor: (i could try)
not8mihalis8boy: (cool)
not8mihalis8boy: (Tuesday?)
WuseMajor: (i would want to confrence with you first)
WuseMajor: (maybe)
firelight mystic: (Hey Mike, interested in an In Nomine game? You
Ben?
LordStyphon01: (Fuck no)
WuseMajor: (maybe but not in talking about it now)
firelight mystic: (It'll be run on-line, Mike.)
firelight mystic: (alright Ben.)
not8mihalis8boy: So, Agent Smith, what do you do?
LordStyphon01: (And stop calling me Ben. I hate it. I've always
hated it.)
firelight mystic: (I'm sorry Benjamin.)
LordStyphon01: Well, Allison is in a Seeking, Traci and Gemini are
unconscious, Keller and Wu have run off, thus leaving me the only
functioning person there, right?
firelight mystic: yup
not8mihalis8boy: yes
not8mihalis8boy: and Traci is almost dead
firelight mystic: it's a cruel world
WuseMajor: (very)
WuseMajor: (unless you are going to be noble about it...)
firelight mystic: (you shouldn't any complaints.)
not8mihalis8boy: (Welcome to Gothic-Punk
roleplaying. Anyone who doesn't like it can eat
shit and die.)
firelight mystic: I intend to be noblea about it.
not8mihalis8boy: (:-))
LordStyphon01: (Or leave)
firelight mystic: (you got to Hell! You got to HEll and you die! Mr.
Garrison, South Park....)
LordStyphon01: Go, you twit
LordStyphon01: Not got
not8mihalis8boy: (Worse. In WoD, you go to Hell and
you LIVE.)
firelight mystic: i was typing fast, shessh
firelight mystic: sheesh
firelight mystic: (figures.)
LordStyphon01: Type fast better
firelight mystic: oaky!
LordStyphon01: Start now
not8mihalis8boy: Agent Smith.....
LordStyphon01: I'm the only one functioning, and I have to get them
all to Houston in 48 hours
not8mihalis8boy: yep
firelight mystic: your mission, if you choose to accept it....
LordStyphon01: Is to shut your trap!
firelight mystic: i'll stop bugging you Benjamin. SEriously.
not8mihalis8boy: Benjamin?
LordStyphon01: I'm thinking, God damn it!
not8mihalis8boy: okay, okay
not8mihalis8boy: scene change
not8mihalis8boy: Mercy Hospital
not8mihalis8boy: A man comes walking in carrying
you, Wu
firelight mystic: awww....
not8mihalis8boy: He walks into the Emergency
Room, and says "This woman has a broken leg.
Fix it, or....uh.....die?"
WuseMajor: "not the best line"
not8mihalis8boy: The nurse looks at him oddly
not8mihalis8boy: You'll have to wait
not8mihalis8boy: "Umm....what should I say? You're
so much better at this. I KNEW I should have
stuck to being a nice guy."
WuseMajor: "stay a nice guy"
not8mihalis8boy: "Ok. Umm....thank you, miss."
not8mihalis8boy: <arched eyebrow from nurse>
not8mihalis8boy: (Benjamin, lemme know when
you're ready
not8mihalis8boy: )
LordStyphon01: I call Keller
not8mihalis8boy: Keller puts you down gently, and
answers his cell phone
not8mihalis8boy: "Hello?"
LordStyphon01: "Where are you?"
not8mihalis8boy: "Excuse me, sir, but fuck you."
not8mihalis8boy: he hangs up
not8mihalis8boy: He looks down at you, and smiles
not8mihalis8boy: "That was my boss."
WuseMajor: "wow"
WuseMajor: "thanks"
not8mihalis8boy: "I don't think he's gonna be happy
when he figures out I just quit."
firelight mystic: (she's gonna get laid, we get screwed over. lovely.)
LordStyphon01: Very unhappy, indeed
not8mihalis8boy: (I'd set him up as a backup
character for anyone who died)
WuseMajor: "i think he has, but don't worry i could use a lab
assistant."
not8mihalis8boy: "So, while we're waiting, wanna
tell me what an RD is doing interested in
non-Euclidean physics?"
LordStyphon01: (David, he gets an enemy for his sheet)
not8mihalis8boy: (indeed)
WuseMajor: "oh i'm also a scientist, i just prefer more freedom in
my work than you guys get."
not8mihalis8boy: "Freedom? Huh?"
LordStyphon01: (I refuse to tolerate traitors)
not8mihalis8boy: (I know)
LordStyphon01: I call the NYPD
not8mihalis8boy: and?
LordStyphon01: I report a kidnapping
WuseMajor: "besides navagating in subspace requires knowledge of
things euclid never dreamed of."
LordStyphon01: Of a young Asian woman by a man matching
Keller's description.
not8mihalis8boy: "Excuse me, sir, but we're kind of
down right now. They've declared a city-wide
state of emergency, if you weren't paying
attention'
not8mihalis8boy: "We'll deal with it when we can,
but it's gonna be awhile. Hang tight."
LordStyphon01: Oh well
firelight mystic has left the room.
not8mihalis8boy: True. But I tend to look more at it
from the quantum accelerator viewpoint
firelight mystic has entered the room.
firelight mystic: sorry
firelight mystic: comp just went on the fritz.
firelight mystic: had to restart it
not8mihalis8boy: In other words, I make guns
not8mihalis8boy: He pulls out his gun
WuseMajor: "ah"
firelight mystic: huh?
not8mihalis8boy: Everyone gets down on the
ground, screaming
not8mihalis8boy: (Agent Keller)
not8mihalis8boy: Uh...it's alright....I'm a federal
agent....he pulls out his badge
not8mihalis8boy: <mutters> "damn"
not8mihalis8boy: Puts the gun away
not8mihalis8boy: (BTW, the gun is NOT a standard
make)
WuseMajor: "you can show me later"
not8mihalis8boy: "yeah....if there is a later
LordStyphon01: (Oh, he will)
not8mihalis8boy: maybe we'd better go somewhere
else..."
not8mihalis8boy: (he will what?)
WuseMajor: "i do need a doctor, though."
not8mihalis8boy: (oh...show it to her)
not8mihalis8boy: "What about a Werewolf? They're
supposed to heal, right? And they're RDs, like
you!"
not8mihalis8boy: He picks you up, and carries you
out of the room
not8mihalis8boy: "No, wait....they regenerate"
WuseMajor: "i am not a werewolf."
WuseMajor: "i am as normal a human as you are."
not8mihalis8boy: "But you're an RD!"
WuseMajor: "possibably more normal."
not8mihalis8boy: "What's that mean?"
not8mihalis8boy: "Anyway, aren't there other RDs
that do healing?"
WuseMajor: "i'm not one of them."
not8mihalis8boy: "Right....we need to FIND one."
WuseMajor: "one of the other people in that problem tonight was,
though."
WuseMajor: "and we really should try to save them"
not8mihalis8boy: "Really? Hmm.....<evil grin> Let's
go back....."
WuseMajor: "yes you could show your ex-boss your gun..."
not8mihalis8boy: Benjamin, are you still sitting
there, thinking, when they come back after an
hour or so?
LordStyphon01: No
firelight mystic: this promises to be ugly
not8mihalis8boy: "I was JUST thinking that...."
not8mihalis8boy: "New meaning to the word 'fired'"
WuseMajor: "yes"
not8mihalis8boy: What are you doing in the
meantime, Benjamin?
not8mihalis8boy: And does his phone have a
transponder?
not8mihalis8boy: (I assume yes)
LordStyphon01: My phone or his?
not8mihalis8boy: his....as in, a tracking device
LordStyphon01: Maybe.
not8mihalis8boy: Let's assume yes...
LordStyphon01: Okay, fine. Point?
not8mihalis8boy: yes?
LordStyphon01: The point, if you please?
not8mihalis8boy: ah
not8mihalis8boy: So where are you when they
return?
not8mihalis8boy: (the point being that you know
they're returning)
LordStyphon01: I've left
not8mihalis8boy: With?
LordStyphon01: Traci's car.
not8mihalis8boy: With whom?
firelight mystic: how?
firelight mystic: i still have the keys
