  1. [00:30:14] * Rikala is sitting in a chair near Savage's bed still holding Sun Wukong in her arms. She is silent and stares blankly around the room.
  2. [00:30:14] <Tip> You cry babies ;-;
  3. [00:30:46] * CounterBeard is now known as KlarkKralk
  4. [00:30:56] : Alexei speaks curtly to Rock. "In military, when this happen, is responsibility of soldier at fault to explain death to comrades. I hope you ready for when Savage wake."
  5. [00:31:03] <Rock> (Yeah, Kuji's accidental death AND DESTROY ENEMY theme: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kY06IgyN_RM )
  6. [00:31:16] <Rock> "...yes. I will do that."
  7. [00:31:30] <Rikala> (Rika's actual sadness theme http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FBH9e2WNDw)
  8. [00:31:30] * Dynasty is now known as katy
  9. [00:31:49] <Botherer> ( You guys put WAY too much investment into theme songs for everything... It scares me ;A; )
  10. [00:31:50] * Tip stands up sits in a chair, holding his Purrloin. "Hmm.. This is not good at all..."
  11. [00:31:56] <Tip> (I didn't :V)
  12. [00:32:18] <Rikala> (it's mostly me and cast that do it xD)
  13. [00:32:21] <Alexei> (Botherer, it helps a lot for me to define a character with musical themes)
  14. [00:32:26] <Rock> (I was wondering, what should I use that song for?)
  15. [00:33:11] <Alexei> (When I have a good collection of themes is pretty much the point at which I know I have a good foundational grasp of how to play the character in a variety of emotional states/situations)
  16. [00:33:12] <Tip> (I need songs for my guy that help define my character. Oh wait I do nevermind)
  17. [00:34:53] <Alexei> "We will also have to explain situation to Douglas. Call should be make later tonight."
  18. [00:35:03] <Tip> "Well uh... Lets all just relax and wait for Savage to awake and then handle it accordingly shall we?"
  19. [00:36:00] <Rock> "...yeah... I didn't know it would happen so fast..."
  20. [00:36:13] * katy is now known as Katy
  21. [00:36:41] <Tip> "It happens more often than you thing..." Tip's voice trails off.
  22. [00:36:48] <Alexei> "...I am of opinion you should not speak when Savage awake, Tip. Comment back in office show you are not good at 'emotional sensitivity' thing. Still like rebelliious teenager with cynical view of world."
  23. [00:37:32] <Rock> "...you guys. I have something important to discuss. It's about the talk me and Doug had."
  24. [00:37:34] * Tip looks at Alexei. "What do yoy mean cynical view of the world?"
  25. [00:38:43] <Rock> "...it's important that Savage doesn't hear this right now."
  26. [00:38:47] <Rikala> Rikala still doesn't speaka word but she gives a glare in Tip's direction. <Accidents happen?>
  27. [00:38:48] <Alexei> "Apologies, Alexei is unexperienced with this language. Choose simpler words. Like little boy who not know how to handle mature situation. See death, think 'oh death happen all time, not big deal', refuse to empathize properly with victim. Say is 'just an accident'."
  28. [00:39:21] <Alexei> "Rock, speak. This is what Doug discuss with you in secret?"
  29. [00:39:42] <Rock> "...it's about Team Triface."
  30. [00:39:49] <Tip> "I'll talk later.' <You too Rikala>
  31. [00:40:11] <Rock> "Which means this discussion DOES NOT LEAVE THIS CIRCLE."
  32. [00:40:22] <Rock> "Do you all understand me?"
  33. [00:40:26] * KlarkKralk (Gets some popcorn.)
  34. [00:40:35] <Alexei> "I am military man, fully understand importance of keep intelligence secret."
  35. [00:40:39] <Rock> (...you know what I'm going to say.)
  36. [00:41:02] <Tip> "Scouts honor."
  37. [00:41:24] <Rikala> Rikala nods in his direction, she's too emotional exhausted to actually speak right now. <It's nobody's business but our own anyways.>
  38. [00:41:51] <Rock> "...remember, Alexei. What did you say about Triface earlier?"
  39. [00:42:23] <Alexei> "Is silly kids who play out rebellious teen power fantasy. Is impression receive from Doug. Why?"
  40. [00:42:40] <Rock> "...that WAS the case."
  41. [00:42:58] <Tip> "What?"
  42. [00:43:02] <Alexei> "Continue."
  43. [00:43:05] <Rock> "Do you really think they'd hire me for your protection if that really is the case?"
  44. [00:43:31] : Alexei shrugs. "Honestly, thought you hired because Doug thought me crazy man with sword."
  45. [00:43:53] * Tip chuckles a bit. "Continue."
  46. [00:44:01] <Rock> "No. What I said earlier was true. I've been hired to protect you guys."
  47. [00:44:13] <Rock> "Team Triface is militarizing."
  48. [00:44:57] * Tip 's mouth curls into a frown. "... Militarizing? Not god at all.."
  49. [00:45:25] <Alexei> "So League hires one man to protect?"
  50. [00:45:41] <Rikala> Rikala projects to all of her team for now. <Are we even good enough to fight a group that is militarizing?>
  51. [00:46:58] <Rock> "...Alexei. Rikala. You've seen my brutality firsthand. Don't concern yourselves with that."
  52. [00:47:17] <Tip> "Eh... I have faith in Rock. He's a part of the team after all."
  53. [00:47:20] <Botherer> ( That is a HORRIBLE comment to have made. And in terrible taste. )
  54. [00:47:34] <Tip> (It was. Terrible)
  55. [00:47:48] <Tip> (Oh no he didn't...)
  56. [00:47:51] <Alexei> "Not mean to offend, but brutality not aim in right direction today."
  57. [00:48:12] <Tip> "... Not the words I would have used. At all."
  58. [00:48:15] <Rikala> Rikala finally finds her voice once again, though it is a still filled with sadness it is also filled with anger. "Brutality doesn't always equal strength. In your case I think that's been proven."
  59. [00:48:56] <Rock> "Yes. I apologize for that. But still, right now you should be concerned that Triface knows we exist.
  60. [00:49:16] <Rock> "That was an ambush earlier..."
  61. [00:49:28] <Rock> "However, we did gain some valuable information."
  62. [00:49:46] <Alexei> "Yes. Was. Now will team listen when Alexei insist on attack man who is clearly enemy?"
  63. [00:50:22] <Tip> "Yes Al, we will. Also... I still want to understand how I'm a 'cynical youth'."
  64. [00:50:38] <Rock> "...Tip, Alexei, SHUSH."
  65. [00:51:06] * Tip looks over at Rock, and settles down a bit more in his chair
  66. [00:51:19] <Rikala> "You think this is a joke Tip? You say 'accidents happen' like it's no big deal. Tell that to Sun Wukong. He's lying here in my arms, lifeless, because of an 'accident'. You think that is something to be played lightly?"
  67. [00:51:20] <Rock> "I have reason to believe that the clothes that man was wearing was their uniform."
  68. [00:51:23] <Alexei> "Tip, was answer before. No time for repeat." Alexei turns to Rock. "Not mean to insult, only say is appropriate for you take initiative in combat if necessary."
  69. [00:51:49] <KlarkKralk> Hey folks perception please
  70. [00:51:53] <Alexei> 1d20-2
  71. [00:51:55] <Tip> 1d20-2
  72. [00:51:55] <DiceMaid-9001> Alexei, 1d20-2: -1 [1d20=1]
  73. [00:51:55] <DiceMaid-9001> Tip, 1d20-2: 3 [1d20=5]
  74. [00:51:58] <Rikala> 1d20 ohboy
  75. [00:51:58] <Rock> 1d20-2
  76. [00:51:59] <DiceMaid-9001> Rikala, ohboy: 3 [1d20=3]
  77. [00:51:59] <DiceMaid-9001> Rock, 1d20-2: -1 [1d20=1]
  78. [00:52:05] <Rock> (OHFRICK)
  79. [00:52:06] <Tip> (All these terrible rolls)
  80. [00:52:13] <Tip> (All of them)
  81. [00:52:38] <KlarkKralk> You think you hear some steps outside the room...But no one is there. Must havebeen nothing.
  82. [00:52:41] <Botherer> (Those are TERRIBLE.)
  83. [00:52:59] <Rock> "..."
  84. [00:53:08] <Rock> "Did I just hear that?"
  85. [00:53:18] * Tip doesn't pay any attention too it. "It was probably nothing"
  86. [00:53:26] <Alexei> "Hear what? Should investigate?"
  87. [00:53:45] <Rikala> Rikala pays no mind to whatever it was, she's still giving Tip a deathglare.
  88. [00:53:57] * Tip looks over at Rikala
  89. [00:54:07] * Rock stands up. "Alexei, everyone else, keep watch of Savage and tell me when he wakes. I'm going to investigate."
  90. [00:54:32] <Tip> <Are you still upset with my comment? I don't understand why.> Tip pets his Purrloin some more
  91. [00:54:42] <Alexei> "Rock, not mean offend, but perhaps best for two to investigate." Alexei also stands up and places a hand on his sword.
  92. [00:55:16] <Rikala> <You really are clueless aren't you? It's not even worth it, forget it, I'm done.>
  93. [00:55:16] <Rock> "...no, Alexei. You're one of the public faces. I'm only here to serve you all. SIT DOWN."
  94. [00:55:56] * Rock starts walking towards the entrance, looking around the hallway.
  95. [00:56:08] <Rock> entrance of the room*
  96. [00:56:11] <Alexei> "Hm, perhaps Alexei should stay to guard room." He flips open his pokedex and watches the blips of the team members. "If in mortal danger, crush pokedex with weapon. Will know to come rescue."
  97. [00:56:26] <Rock> "...yeah."
  98. [00:56:36] <Tip> <Clueless? Why am I clueless? You honestly thing I wasn't lying for the sake of the people. It was already a bad situation, no need to make it worse by telling them this is all their fault. Honestly with this news, we need as much help as possible>
  99. [00:57:12] * Rock closes the door behind him and starts looking around the hallway... for what, again?
  100. [00:57:34] <KlarkKralk> You see people milling about but no one close enough to cause the noise.
  101. [00:57:40] <Rikala> Rikala doesn't seem to be paying attention to Tip at this point, though she hears his thoughts directed at her loud and clear. "Savage... I dunno if you can hear me but... please wake up soon. We're all worried about you..."
  102. [00:58:13] * Tip sits in his chair, a bit tensed
  103. [00:58:27] <Rock> "..." <Rikala, can you hear me?>
  104. [00:58:59] <Rikala> (I think something needs clearing up a bit)
  105. [00:59:10] <Rikala> (I have to be reading your mind in the first place for me to hear you)
  106. [00:59:35] <Rikala> (So uh, if I didn't initiate the conversation I'm not really hearing you at all because I'm not focused on reading your mind)
  107. [00:59:59] <Rock> "...guess not." Rock checked the area around him one more time... something was up. He's sure of it.
  108. [01:00:30] <Rock> He checked everywhere... floor, walls, ceiling...
  109. [01:00:32] : Alexei is sitting perfectly still, focused on watching the pokedex screen.
  110. [01:01:16] <Savage> "...How far away is he?"
  111. [01:01:30] * Tip sighs heavily. Thoughts getting to him now. He perks up. "S-Savage?"
  112. [01:01:47] * Savage 's eyes are open, though he's just staring up at the cieling.
  113. [01:02:16] <Tip> "Are you okay buddy?"
  114. [01:02:18] * Rikala gasps a bit as she suddenly hears Savage's voice. "Savage..." <I'm so happy you're okay!>
  115. [01:02:19] <Alexei> "...So was awake. I shall fetch." Alexei steps out in the hallway and follows Rock's blip until he reaches him. "Savage is awake."
  116. [01:02:24] <Savage> "Don't!"
  117. [01:02:34] * Tip stands up and walks over to Savage. "Sorry about that..."
  118. [01:02:35] <Savage> Savage says it the moment the word 'fetch' escapes Alexei's mouth, stopping him.
  119. [01:02:55] <Savage> "...I don't want to see his face right now."
  120. [01:03:10] <Rikala> 1d20
  121. [01:03:10] <DiceMaid-9001> Rikala, 1d20: 20 [1d20=20]
  122. [01:03:11] : Alexei stops, his hand almost on the doorknob. "Was think would be best you speak to him. Not form resentment later."
  123. [01:03:28] <Rikala> <You've been awake this entire time haven't you?>
  124. [01:03:34] <Rikala> (dat WIS check)
  125. [01:03:36] <Rikala> (XD)
  126. [01:03:57] <Tip> "I'm really really sorry Savage I really am..."
  127. [01:03:58] <KlarkKralk> (Are you sure? =3)
  128. [01:04:22] <Rock> <KlarkKralk> (Are you sure? =3) <- who are you talking about?
  129. [01:04:39] * Tip sits down in a chair next to the bed right? That's what is in hospitals now-a-days right?
  130. [01:05:08] <Savage> (Customers)
  131. [01:05:27] * Rock does a double-take back to the door... where he simply said. "I heard you. Where are you?"
  132. [01:05:31] <Savage> "......I've been awake long enough, yes," he doesn't seem to realise the voice was telepathic, and just says it aloud. Or maybe he just doesn't know how to think back.
  133. [01:06:52] <Rikala> "I..." Rikala's eyes well up again as she stares down at Sun Wukong in her arms. "I... I'm so sorry Savage...I don't know what to say anymore..."
  134. [01:07:42] * Tip sighs heavily, and places his head in his hands. "I'm really really sorry..."
  135. [01:08:17] <Savage> Savage keeps staring sort of blankly, up at the cieling. "It's not your guys' fault. ...You know whose fault it is."
  136. [01:08:19] <Rock> "Where are you...." Rock sighed and put his back to the door, slumping to the ground. "..."
  137. [01:08:36] <Botherer> ( Ouch... That sounds cold. )
  138. [01:08:49] <Savage> He doesn't sound angry... or maybe he's just too shocked or injured or exhausted or who knows, to build up the energy to actually -be- angry.
  139. [01:08:59] <Rock> (He could be referring to someone else, though.)
  140. [01:09:06] <Tip> "We do... I just feel like I could of done something..."
  141. [01:09:18] : Alexei steps away from the door and plops himself down in a seat near the bed. "I am sorry. Have lost many comrade myself. Am understand grief."
  142. [01:09:47] <Rikala> "Cuddles is here to see you too Savage. He's been worried so much." The little sentrat is curled up at Rikala's feet. "Sent?"
  143. [01:10:05] <Rikala> (*senthat buh)
  144. [01:10:14] * Tip refrains from using the term 'it was an accident'
  145. [01:11:05] <Savage> "...Cuddles? Come up here, will you?" Savage idly pats the side of the bed, still not looking elsewhere.
  146. [01:11:45] <Rikala> (am I still going to RP Cuddles or did Beard want to take over pokemon duties)
  147. [01:12:05] <Tip> "... Well since Savage is awake..." Tip stands up and walks towards the door. "I need a walk..."
  148. [01:12:06] : Alexei takes another swig from his flask, then offers it to Savage. "Am know you are not fan of drink, but vodka has been reliable friend to me in many days of grief. Take if you are feel it is help."
  149. [01:12:33] <Savage> "...I won't take your damn old man drink." Oh, okay, maybe he is a little angry, at least based on his words.
  150. [01:13:13] <Rock> Tip: you can't seem to open the door. It's like something is blocking it on the other side.
  151. [01:13:27] : Alexei nods and takes another swig.
  152. [01:13:35] <Rikala> Cuddles perks his head up and does a jump up onto the bed. It walks in small circles before settling down on Savage's stomach and looking at him. "Sent sent~?"
  153. [01:13:38] <Rock> Well, that WOULD be the case.
  154. [01:13:51] <Rock> But, when you do open the door, Rock is going to fall down.
  155. [01:14:11] <Tip> (I'm going to open anyway:V)
  156. [01:14:18] <Rock> (Hallway architecture BLAH.)
  157. [01:14:43] * Tip opens the door anyway (Screw the rules I have sunglasses)
  158. [01:14:50] <Rock> (I know, just saying, so you won't try to step all over Rock.)
  159. [01:15:23] <Tip> (But I was gonna have a conversation with rock anyway sooo)
  160. [01:15:30] * Rock falls out, falling to the ground. "Oh, hi. Well, I can't seem to find the source."
  161. [01:15:52] <Rock> "I take it Savage hasn't waken yet?"
  162. [01:15:58] : Alexei shrugs, then stands up with a pointed look at the hospital bed, resituating himself to a further seat from the bed.
  163. [01:16:07] <Rock> (He wasn't trying to listen in, anyways.)
  164. [01:16:19] <Alexei> (damnit, meant to put that before you asked if Savage woke, disregard the shrug)
  165. [01:16:45] <Savage> Savage shuts his eyes just as his hand comes down onto Cuddles, falling still - he's apparently pretty practiced at feigning sleep
  166. [01:17:01] * Tip closes the door behind him. "Sorry about that... And uh.... He seems to stir a bit, but I wouldn't say awake" Tip sighs
  167. [01:17:24] * Rock gets hit in the head by the door. "Ow."
  168. [01:17:36] <Rock> (He's still laying down on the ground.)
  169. [01:17:45] : Alexei gives a curious glance at Tip, then at Rika upon hearing Tip's words.
  170. [01:18:02] <Tip> "Sorry again..." Tip gives a hand to Rock to help him up.
  171. [01:18:36] * Rock picked himself up and dusted his back. "It's alright."
  172. [01:18:39] <Rikala> <I don't think we should make Savage talk to him right now Alex...>
  173. [01:19:23] <Tip> "Or not take my hand.... I needed a break from the room I guess. Kinda wanted to have a word with you."
  174. [01:19:45] <Rock> "Yeah, sure. But why not here?"
  175. [01:20:27] <Tip> "I mean we can have a talk here, but I'd prefer something a little more private."
  176. [01:20:33] * Tip shrugs
  177. [01:20:52] <Rock> "...I have to wonder why."
  178. [01:21:10] <Alexei> <...Know this may not be right, but perhaps is best if you make not so private. Not sure what think of Tip right now.>
  179. [01:21:25] <Tip> "Prying ears and eyes."
  180. [01:21:34] <Alexei> (thinking for Rika to pick up only)
  181. [01:21:47] <Tip> (Not like I'm a telepath)
  182. [01:22:03] <Rikala> (What do you mean by "Make not so private"?)
  183. [01:22:22] <Tip> (Spy)
  184. [01:22:31] <Alexei> (read their minds?)
  185. [01:22:37] <Tip> (read their minds duh)
  186. [01:22:44] <Rock> "..." Rock pushed Tip inside the room slightly and closed the door. "Tell us, what's the deal?"
  187. [01:22:50] <Rikala> (ohoh ok yes XD)
  188. [01:23:07] <Savage> (is that into the room Savage is in, or a different room?)
  189. [01:23:27] * Rikala she nods to Alex silently and focuses her mind on Tip, on the other side of the door.
  190. [01:23:46] <Rikala> (They are directly outside of the room with the door shut)
  191. [01:23:54] <Rock> In the room Savage is in.
  192. [01:24:14] <Rock> I pushed Tip INSIDE the room.
  193. [01:24:38] <Rikala> (oh my bad)
  194. [01:24:54] <Rikala> (either way I'm PRYING YO MIND OPEN)
  195. [01:25:16] <Tip> "Deal is this Rock, if you actually want to help, you need to be much more careful than you were earlier today. I know you helped alot with you bow-n-arrow, but the fact of the matter is, they are our teamates, you have to think before you act somtimes."
  196. [01:25:51] <Rock> "...are you rephrasing things that have already been said?"
  197. [01:26:05] <Rock> "I really don't like people who repeat themselves."
  198. [01:26:53] <Rikala> (TO CLARIFY I am readin Tip right now)
  199. [01:26:54] <Alexei> "Is awfully tall high horse for rebellious teenager to sit on after tell us to 'stop complaining' about so-call 'accident' back at League Office." Alexei has released Gin and is carefully examining his wings.
  200. [01:27:08] * Kuji (Kotodes@93D3A8D3.60ECF9E2.E096B1A4.IP) has joined #TalentScouts
  201. [01:27:16] <Kuji> !dm9001 lastlines #10
  202. [01:28:23] <Savage> Savage's hand starts patting Cuddles' back, just softly. It's the only real sign he's awake at the moment.
  203. [01:28:47] <Tip> "I'm letting you know the 'Accidents happen line' was utter crap I spewed because the kid was there. First and foremost is the protection of your teamates, and I'm honestly counting on you, myself, Al, Savage and Rika to handle this business
  204. [01:29:28] <Kuji> "...keep collateral damage to a minimum. I'll see what I can do."
  205. [01:29:34] * Rock (Kotodes@93D3A8D3.60ECF9E2.E096B1A4.IP) Quit (Ping timeout)
  206. [01:29:35] <Rikala> (why am I reading Tip right now anyways?)
  207. [01:29:39] * Kuji is now known as Rock
  208. [01:29:51] <Rock> (Good question.)
  209. [01:30:04] <Alexei> (it would've only been necessary if they left the room)
  210. [01:30:07] <Rikala> (everyone confused me ;_;)
  211. [01:30:14] * Tip takes off his sunglasses off and holds his hand out (I'll tell you what he was thinking later.) "Okay then Rock. Shake on it."
  212. [01:31:02] <Rock> "..." Rock grabs his hand and does one slow shake before letting go. "...so, how is the kid doing?"
  213. [01:32:22] <Tip> Thoughts for Rikala <I honestly hope that this guy isn't as incompetent as he seems. I really don't want to see anyone else get hurt like that again... And Rikala's stare... Eh... I'd rather not see that again. Ever.>
  214. [01:33:49] <Rikala> "Still the same... more or less... all we can do it wait really." <I hope we can prevent anything like this from happening again Alex... I really do.>
  215. [01:34:48] <Alexei> <Is up to Rock. Soldier is not can comrade from fire gun, only give advice.>
  216. [01:35:08] <Rock> "..." Rock hangs his head and opens the door, walking out and closing the door.
  217. [01:35:13] <Alexei> *not keep
  218. [01:35:55] * Tip sighs and sits down again. "This is gonna be a looong stay..."
  219. [01:36:12] : Alexei offers Tip his flask.
  220. [01:36:12] <Savage> Savage waits until the door is closed before opening his eyes again, and finally speaking again. "...You don't have to stay here. You can go."
  221. [01:36:31] <Tip> "I'd rather be here than anywhere else."
  222. [01:36:33] * Rock walks to the nearest phone, and dials Doug's number.
  223. [01:36:41] <Rock> Sorry.
  224. [01:36:50] <Rock> within eyeshot of the door*
  225. [01:37:06] * Rock pokes KlarkKralk
  226. [01:37:30] <Rikala> "I'm not going anywhere Savage. Not until you are better and leaving with us."
  227. [01:37:50] <Savage> "...And you intend to leave with... with -him- too, right?"
  228. [01:37:53] <Alexei> "Is comrade. Would be shameful travesty to leave alone." Alexei is still holding his flask out to Tip.
  229. [01:38:21] * Tip takes the flask and takes a sip and passes it back. "Thanks I guess."
  230. [01:38:44] <Rikala> "I... honestly I don't want to... I can't forgive what happened... but we are a team and we have to work this out one way or another..."
  231. [01:38:53] <Alexei> "No problem. Alexei may think is naive youth but is still comrade. Grief is shared."
  232. [01:39:53] * Tip nods. "And you aren't exactly a crazy old man Alex."
  233. [01:40:13] <Savage> "...Right. Right." Savage sighs. "...The rest of you?"
  234. [01:40:59] : Alexei grins at Tip. "Not so sure if true. Have to be little crazy to win battle through use strategy worthy only of shit of bull."
  235. [01:42:52] * Rikala starts getting a reading on Savage's thoughts as she listens to the conversation.
  236. [01:43:22] : Alexei thinks a moment before moving to the empty seat next to Savage's bed. "Would ask your opinion first."
  237. [01:43:44] * Tip chuckles, then looks at Savage. "We are a team. I have to agree with Alex though."
  238. [01:44:03] <Savage> "..." Savage shakes his head. "Hey, I asked first." It sounds like he's trying to joke, but he can't even get the strength to.
  239. [01:45:28] <Alexei> "Well, am still think about it. Sorry, will have to wait."
  240. [01:46:02] <Tip> "... I would rather him be here to help myself, but if we all have a problem, then it's my problem too."
  241. [01:48:12] <Tip> "... I can't say I can't sympathize with the poor guy..."
  242. [01:48:24] <Rikala> "I think... ultimately this should be left to you Savage. It is you the he has cause so much harm to... you have a right to decide if you want to travel with him."
  243. [01:48:35] <Savage> "...I cannot... A world where I lose my family, because they have to defend my friends from people who are supposed to be trusted, are supposed to be 'protecting' us... is one I want nothing to do with."
  244. [01:49:13] <Alexei> "Perhaps is not decision to make now. Make after rest and after calm emotions some." Alexei looks out over everyone in the room.
  245. [01:49:15] <Tip> "Well then Savage, do we tell him we no longer need his services?"
  246. [01:49:26] * Tip looks up over at Savage
  247. [01:50:41] <Savage> "...I will not travel with him, and if that means I quit, so be it... if this is the kind of thing I've signed up for."
  248. [01:51:51] <Tip> "As much as I think you two should actually talk first, much like Alex believes, I will carry out your wishes if you see fit." Tip sighs

  257. [01:54:08] <Alexei> "I am think should rest first. Even if you plan quit, best would be speak to Rock for closure."
  258. [01:57:11] <Savage> "...'Closure'? Wukong is dead and that's that. Speaking with the one who killed him would change nothing."
  259. [01:57:19] <Savage> It's... surprisingly cold.
  260. [01:58:47] <Rikala> "I..... I'm sorry but I can't disagree with Savage... though I will be really sad to see him go... I fully understand." <Some lot we are... we haven't even started and already we're about to lose a team member... what do we do Alex?>
  261. [01:59:18] <Tip> "Er... This is a really bad spot."
  262. [01:59:22] <Alexei> <Is his choice. If he refuse speak with Rock, can do nothing about it.>
  263. [01:59:48] * Rock knocked on the room door. "Can I come in, now?"
  264. [02:00:03] <Savage> "Tell him to go away. I don't even wanna hear his voice."
  265. [02:00:42] <Tip> "Er... er... Uh I don't think so."
  266. [02:00:50] : Alexei walks to the door, opens it and steps through, then closes the door behind him.
  267. [02:00:51] * Tip yells back to the door
  268. [02:00:51] * Kuji (Kotodes@93D3A8D3.60ECF9E2.E096B1A4.IP) has joined #TalentScouts

  272. [02:01:28] * Kuji is now known as Rock
  273. [02:01:37] <Rikala> Rikala looks from Savage to the door, unsure of what to even do anymore. She doesn't even know if she wants to deal with Rock right now or not either.
  274. [02:02:10] * Tip sits and sighs, holding his Purrloin close. "Never said this would be easy... Right Rika?"
  275. [02:02:10] * Tip looks up hoping for at least a little... something
  276. [02:02:22] <Rock> !dm9001 lastlines #20
  277. [02:02:31] <Rikala> She instead opts to focus her mind on Rock as Alex steps outside to talk to Rock. "This... this is not what I expected when difficulties were mentioned..."
  278. [02:02:36] : Alexei puts an arm around Rock and leads him a bit down the hall. "I am military man, am see too much death for think like young boy like Savage." (still going don't respond yet)
  279. [02:03:23] <Rock> Rikala: <...he didn't tell me to resign... but I'll give them a choice.>
  280. [02:03:53] <Rock> <I know that even though I did tell him everything, he wouldn't understand.>
  281. [02:04:03] <Savage> Savage looks up for a moment to confirm Alexei has left too, then sighs. "...I... I think, just perhaps, I can trust you guys a little more," he looks to the two of them. "...Maybe it's because we're all still young here."
  282. [02:04:31] <Alexei> "Opinion is this. Savage need speak with you sometime, or will gnaw at heart like cold Bibarel at tree in winter when dam is being break. Even if he is not want to, he must. Not sure what you want do about that though. Obviously he is not want see your face or even hear your voice now. I will return. Decide on own."
  283. [02:04:43] <Alexei> With that, Alexei walks back to the room and re-enters.
  284. [02:04:54] <Rock> <Wait, why is Alexei outside? Shouldn't he be protecting them!? OH DEAR WHAT HAPPENED.>
  285. [02:04:55] <Savage> "...I--" he hears the door opening, and shuts up suddenly.
  286. [02:05:00] * Tip nods. "I am.... I can't deny."
  287. [02:05:24] <Rock> <...oh... I see...>
  288. [02:05:31] <Rikala> <Alex, can you not come in here right now?>
  289. [02:05:40] <Rikala> (no longer reading Rock as a result)
  290. [02:05:57] <Rikala> (gee telepathy is complicated to juggle)
  291. [02:05:58] <Alexei> <Hm? Why?>
  292. [02:06:01] * Tip looks back at Alex.
  293. [02:06:25] <Tip> (That's why I used to always do telepathy where it was always on at a low level.)
  294. [02:06:30] <Rock> <I'll make it offic-
  295. [02:06:42] <Rikala> <Just... Savage is more willing to open up to us for some reason or another... give us a bit of time...>
  296. [02:06:48] <Rock> (That's the last part you hear before you switch.)
  297. [02:07:07] <Alexei> (you can read multiple minds at once, I believe. That's how you coordinate psychic conversations)
  298. [02:07:18] <Tip> (Yep)
  299. [02:07:26] <Alexei> (which you've been doing between us the whole time now)
  300. [02:07:35] * Rock starts to leave the hospital, heading back towards the crime scene.
  301. [02:07:40] <Savage> (It doesn't mean she has to)
  302. [02:07:45] <Tip> (Yeah)
  303. [02:07:48] <Rikala> (buh... it's just difficult to do because then people start trying to talk to me when they don't have me reading their mind at the time)
  304. [02:08:10] : Alexei shrugs then picks up Gin from where he was perched in the hospital room and walks out. <Very well, but I do expect explanation.>
  305. [02:08:37] <Rikala> <Of course. I trust you Alyosha.>
  306. [02:08:38] <Tip> (Rock is making me sad ;-;
  307. [02:08:45] <Alexei> (if Rock hasn't gone too far yet, Alexei follows him)
  308. [02:08:56] <Rikala> (I feel horrible for having to treat him like crap)
  309. [02:09:06] <Rikala> (I really doooo D=)
  310. [02:09:16] * Savage waits for Alexei to be gone, then a little more, before he starts speaking again. "...We're alone, now?"
  311. [02:09:39] * Rock doesn't seem to noticed Alexei follow him... I suppose he's really that determined.
  312. [02:09:52] <Rikala> "Yes... just us three right now."
  313. [02:10:01] * Rock pokes KlarkKralk
  314. [02:10:07] <Alexei> "Rock, seem like Savage not want old man Alexei in room either."
  315. [02:10:18] <Rock> "...WHAT!?"
  316. [02:10:38] <Savage> "...Five," he scratches behind Cuddles ear as he sits up, looking to the Purrloin. "...I see it as five."
  317. [02:10:46] * Tip looks over at Savage.
  318. [02:10:53] <Tip> "Five? Five what?"
  319. [02:10:53] <Alexei> "Is folly of youth, I suppose." Alexei takes a swig from his flask and offers it to Rock.
  320. [02:10:58] * Rock turned right back and grabbed Alexei on the collar. "YOU SHOULD HAVE WATCHED THE DOOR! ANYONE COULD AMBUSH THEM!"
  321. [02:11:16] * Rock is furious at Alexei's oversight.
  322. [02:11:30] <Rikala> 1d20
  323. [02:11:31] <DiceMaid-9001> Rikala, 1d20: 13 [1d20=13]
  324. [02:11:31] <Alexei> "Rock is calm down please. Rika is read mind and keep tab."
  325. [02:11:39] <Savage> "Five of us, in this room. ...Though you probably don't see it that way, does it make any sense to you?"
  326. [02:11:50] <Savage> (I'm assuming Rikala does not have a Pokemon out; if so, adjust to six as appropriate)
  327. [02:12:19] <Rock> "...but what can she do if they do come? HUH!? TELL ME!"
  328. [02:12:19] * Rikala looks down to Sun Wukong and sighs heavily. "Right... I'm sorry... Just the five of us..."
  329. [02:12:27] <Alexei> "Though if prefer, we can talk in better view of door." Alexei gestures a thumb back at the door behind them.
  330. [02:12:29] <Tip> "... I think I get you..." Tip rubs his Purrloin as he looks at Savage. "Just us..."
  331. [02:12:55] <Alexei> (I was assuming Rock hadn't made it too far down the hallway before Alexei caught up, given how short a time he spent in the room before leaving again)
  332. [02:13:06] <Rock> "...oh. We're that close..." Rock let go of Alexei's collar and sighed. "Sorry."
  333. [02:13:16] <Savage> "...Both of you, what Douglas told me... I'm the only one even from this region, and even then I'm aware I'm a little, uh... strange. But please hear me out."
  334. [02:13:54] <Alexei> "Anyway, would be best call Douglas now. Let him know circumstance. Even in face of tragedy."
  335. [02:14:04] <Rikala> "None of us are what people would call 'normal' Savage. You've been a friend since we've met."
  336. [02:14:10] <Rock> "...I already did."
  337. [02:14:26] <Alexei> "Oh, and what he say?"
  338. [02:14:52] * Tip listens intently
  339. [02:15:03] <Rock> "...he said that this incident makes sure of my placement. That, and the League will have a package for us tomorrow."
  340. [02:15:15] <Tip> (Oh wow I'm not tired for once)
  341. [02:15:44] <Rock> "But..." Rock sighed before telling him. "I want to resign, if that's what Savage feels about me."
  342. [02:15:49] <Alexei> "...Makes sure of?"
  343. [02:15:54] <Savage> "...Heh, that you use that word..." Savage manages an empty chuckle. "The word 'friends'... means a lot to someone like me."
  344. [02:16:31] <Savage> "...I'd rather be surrounded by friends, because I lose them. It's... what happens, when you live like I do. I'm used to saying goodbye."
  345. [02:16:58] <Rock> "...makes sure that the information I relayed to you was true. Makes sure that you guys need me. While I agree, it... shouldn't be me."
  346. [02:17:17] <Savage> He sighs, and finally - finally - his eyes look up to Rikala and to Wukong. His expression, true to his words, hardly changes.
  347. [02:17:45] * Tip looks a Savage, not saying a word.
  348. [02:18:07] <Alexei> "If you insist on quit, will not stop. Savage does say will refuse to travel with you, is threatening quit himself. However, am practical man. League would take time for find replacement. Should stay at least that long, maybe long enough for Savage change mind."
  349. [02:18:13] <Rikala> Rikala looks to Savage and down to Sun Wukong and fresh tears well up as she cradles the lifeless pokemon. "You shouldn't have to say goodbye like this..."
  350. [02:18:31] <Savage> "The law of nature - the only thing unavoidable in the world is death, and death cannot be changed. It doesn't care 'when' or 'how'."
  351. [02:18:56] <Savage> For being such a complete idiot as far as you've known him... this is surprisingly sober coming from Savage.
  352. [02:19:25] <Tip> "Y... yeah it is.."
  353. [02:19:40] <Rock> "...yes. I will do so." Rock took out his Pokedex and placed it in Alexei's pocket, making sure it stayed there. "But for now, I will only follow you from the distance, making sure you don't come to harm."
  354. [02:20:30] <Savage> "...So, friendship with any being is what's most important to me. That kind of bond is what makes life meaningful... or that's the way I think, anyway."
  355. [02:20:52] <Alexei> "Idiot." Alexei tosses it back. "Cannnot track position without pokedex. What if Triface is still ambush you?" He whips out his sword and gives a flourish, a bit more skilled than he seemed upon first meeting Rock. "I am capable in battle as well."
  356. [02:21:00] <Savage> "...Turning against your friends... just because they're 'in your way'? It makes you the worst kind of person."
  357. [02:21:18] <Tip> "... I think I undersand..."
  358. [02:22:15] <Rock> "..." Rock threw his Pokedex on the ground, making a loud noise. "...I'm sorry, then... if Triface still ambushes me, then I will be your sacrifice."
  359. [02:22:46] <Rikala> Rikala kind of just sits there with tears flowing down her face, unsure of what to say anymore. She would give anything to be her normal self that didn't care... but that was long gone.
  360. [02:23:14] * Tip wipes a tear from his face. One. That's it you didn't see it
  361. [02:24:02] <Rock> "If Triface attempts to kill me, I will make sure I take as many as I can down with me. Don't worry about me, please."
  362. [02:24:09] <Alexei> "Only idiot is make such waste. I have fought in many war, seen many die. So many young and naive decide need play hero, sacrifice self needlessly for sake of team. All share one quality: Do not want own up to responsibility. See noble death as way for run from mistakes with honor. All wrong in horrible way. Pick up pokedex. Own your mistakes."
  363. [02:25:20] <Rock> "..." Rock obeyed Alexei, if only just so he could spare Alexei the guilt. "...my mistakes will drive others away..."
  364. [02:25:32] <Rock> "The others I swore to protect..."
  365. [02:25:39] <Savage> "...So yeah. ...You're young; I think you can get it."
  366. [02:26:28] <Alexei> "You have never been general in charge of big battle. What you think you understand of protect others?!"
  367. [02:26:31] <Tip> "... I .... I... Hmm... I don't think he meant ... Argh.."
  368. [02:26:39] <Rikala> "It's like I said before... I can't forgive what has happened either... This death... was so needless..."
  369. [02:27:10] <Rock> "...no. I don't. That's why."
  370. [02:27:20] <Rikala> (Team Nobody Gets Along Anymore)
  371. [02:27:30] <Tip> (I like everyone though ;-;)
  372. [02:28:26] <KlarkKralk> (Ohgod what happened in here?)
  373. [02:28:29] <Alexei> "Then listen to Alexei when he say should not throw away life because think honorable death will make up for mistake!" Alexei is probably starting to yell loud enough for the inhabitants of the room to hear, as well as anyone else near inthe hospital.
  374. [02:28:44] <Savage> (Did you zone out Beard?)
  375. [02:29:00] <KlarkKralk> (Uhh I fell asleep a little >.>)
  376. [02:29:06] <Savage> Savage looks up to the door with a sigh.
  377. [02:29:37] <Tip> (Must not let my sympathy for Rock get in character)
  378. [02:29:53] <Rikala> (I feel so horrible for Kuji right now... poor Rock)
  379. [02:30:06] <Rock> "...of course. Now, if you'll excuse me... you need to watch the door. I have somewhere to go." Rock walked quickly out of the hospital... will Alexei do anything to stop him?
  380. [02:30:18] <Tip> (I do too. I'm glad my pupppy is like right there.)
  381. [02:30:32] <Rikala> Rikala doesn't say another word, she simply sits in her chair with Sun Wukong in her arms, sobbing quietly.
  382. [02:30:41] <Alexei> (before we end this session, we do need to have an ooc discussion of where to go from here I feel, in terms of team composition)
  383. [02:30:43] <Savage> "...Rikala? Would you mind..."
  384. [02:31:16] : Alexei puts a hand on Rock's shoulder and stops him. "Where you go? To throw away life?"
  385. [02:31:25] <Rikala> "What... what is it?"
  386. [02:31:25] * Tip places his sunglasses on his face. "... I..."
  387. [02:31:29] <Savage> "... Wukong. I'd like to... I mean, if you don't mind."
  388. [02:31:39] <Savage> "...Well, even if you do mind."
  389. [02:32:01] <Rock> "To get answers." Rock shook Alexei off. "I'm going to the police station."
  390. [02:33:04] <Rikala> Rikala nods and stands up finally, gently putting Sun Wukong down into Savages hands. She turns around and puts a hand to her mouth and opts to go stand against the far wall and stare out the window.
  391. [02:33:17] <Rikala> All the while she hasn't stopped sobbing.
  392. [02:33:43] <Alexei> "Hmph, you are try use guilt against me. Leave and say cannot follow because my job to keep room safe. Even after you make big deal of say your job is protect us."
  393. [02:33:45] * Tip stands up and walks over to Rikala, and just stands there. Hands in his pockets
  394. [02:34:03] <Rikala> (and now real man tears wrrrrrry ;-;)
  395. [02:34:13] <Tip> (Yes I am there too)
  396. [02:34:17] <Tip> (Manly tears.)
  397. [02:34:26] <Tip> (Like one though because I have balls)
  398. [02:34:58] <Rock> "...yes. I'm going to be back, though. I trust in you." Rock started walking away... does Alexei do anything to stop him?
  399. [02:35:36] : Alexei drops a pokeball at his feet, releasing Gin. "Am sorry, cannot let you throw away life. Sleep powder."
  400. [02:35:40] <Savage> Wukong is taken gently by Savage, lifted against the young man's bare chest, and just held there. "...Warmth." It's the only word that Savage says in the process - a curious one, because, well.
  401. [02:35:41] <Alexei> 1d20 AC 0
  402. [02:35:42] <DiceMaid-9001> Alexei, AC 0: 18 [1d20=18]
  403. [02:35:59] * Rock falls down to the ground with a thud.

  406. [02:36:32] : Alexei drags a few chairs together and places them in front of the door to the room.
  407. [02:37:00] : Alexei then drops Rock on the makeshift bed and sits on the end. <Rika, Rock is want throw away life for nothing. Can help?>
  408. [02:37:32] * Rikala is not reading Alex's mind right now.
  409. [02:37:49] <Alexei> "...hmph." Alexei knocks on the door. "Rika. Need help. Now."
  410. [02:37:57] * Tip looks at Alex and walks over to Alex. "Wha-"
  411. [02:37:57] <Rikala> (but I will do -- or that)
  412. [02:38:30] <Savage> "...Go ahead," Savage nods to them. "...I... could use a little while to myself, I think."
  413. [02:38:37] <Alexei> "Rock is want run off and 'be our sacrifice'. Alexei is not think is appropriate way to make up for mistake."
  414. [02:38:52] * Tip stands there, mouth agape and then walks over to Rock and wipes those tears off his face. "Let... let's take him out of here for now..."
  415. [02:38:54] : Alexei gestures to the sleeping Rock. "He will not remain sleep for long."

  418. [02:39:35] : Alexei then shakes Rock awake. "If you is want go off like idiot, I make sure you at least say goodbye to team first."

  420. [02:39:48] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, Sleep check 14+: 9 [1d20=9]
  421. [02:40:01] * Rikala makes a futile effort to wipe away her tears before walking out of the room without a word. "First Sun Wukong dies and now Rock wants to run off and die too?" Rikala has all but given up on trying to stop her tears.
  422. [02:40:38] <Kuji> 1d20 Sleep check 12+
  423. [02:40:39] <DiceMaid-9001> Kuji, Sleep check 12+: 3 [1d20=3]
  424. [02:40:39] <Alexei> (go ahead and wake up, Alexei's pretty much gonna slap you around until you do anyway)
  425. [02:40:46] * Rock (Kotodes@93D3A8D3.60ECF9E2.E096B1A4.IP) Quit (Ping timeout)
  426. [02:40:49] * Kuji is now known as Rock
  427. [02:41:04] <Tip> "... Oka... Okay... This is...." Tip takes off his sunglasses so they don't get wet from the tears actually falling. Fucking too much emotional stuff at once
  428. [02:41:27] * Rock wakes up and looks to the side to see the Rock. "...oh... I don't remember killing any Triface... that was fast..."
  429. [02:41:34] <Rock> others*
  430. [02:42:00] <Tip> "... What the hell are you thinking!"
  431. [02:42:17] * Tip slaps Rock (futily)
  432. [02:42:17] <Alexei> "So you was planning run off find Triface to fight, not go to station as said. Anyway, if want run off like idiot, make sure say goodbye to team first. Will not make for three members not have closure to tonight."
  433. [02:42:34] <Rikala> Rikala is just standing there with all the tears, unable to think of what to say.

  436. [02:43:51] <Rock> "..." Rock sat up and cleared his throat. "It seems as though the group does not want me here anymore. As such, I've decided to resign from the group."
  437. [02:44:19] <Rikala> 1d20-6
  438. [02:44:19] <DiceMaid-9001> Rikala, 1d20-6: 4 [1d20=10]
  439. [02:44:45] <Alexei> (right now probably isn't the best time to roll to decide how your character acts, though that is just my style of RP speaking)
  440. [02:44:50] <Tip> "I swear... You were gonna go fight all of them weren't you?... You're an idiot you know that right?" Tip has lost his cool deamonor almost completely
  441. [02:44:53] <Rikala> Rikala gives a half-hearted slap to Rock, which is patheticly weak from her being so emotional. "Don't you dare run off and try to die you idiot."
  442. [02:45:06] <Rikala> (that's a STR check XD)
  443. [02:45:19] <Alexei> (gotcha, thought it was CHA with a crying penalty or something :V)
  444. [02:45:41] <Tip> "I can't believe that you would... Did I not tell you I was counting on you?!"
  445. [02:45:50] <Rock> "..." Rock rubbed the place where Rikala slapped him. "..."
  446. [02:46:47] * Rock noticed that the door was open. "...Savage. You have the final word. Do you want me to resign?"
  447. [02:46:57] * Tip gets right in Rock's face. "I'm not letting you go run out and kill yourself

  450. [02:48:01] <Savage> (Rock is, to my understanding, in another room?)
  451. [02:48:29] <Kuji> (No. He's in the hallway. The others have neglected to close the door.)
  452. [02:48:31] <Alexei> (out in the hall, right in front of the door, actually. Alexei set up some chairs there as a makeshift bed)
  453. [02:49:45] <Savage> Savage is... not answering. Or even showing any sign he is aware of Rock calling to him.
  454. [02:49:51] * Rock (Kotodes@93D3A8D3.60ECF9E2.E096B1A4.IP) Quit (Ping timeout)
  455. [02:50:01] * Kuji is now known as Rock
  456. [02:50:20] <Rock> "...is it alright if I take the silence as a yes?"
  457. [02:51:10] <Tip> "He doesn't want to talk to you. Because of what happened."
  458. [02:51:54] <Alexei> "I stand by original opinion. Everyone too cloud by emotion now for make final decision."
  459. [02:52:55] <Tip> "I'm not letting you resign just to die."
  460. [02:53:01] <Rock> "...then, that is a yes all in itself, isn't it." Rock stood up and sighed. "Alright, here's the deal. I'll stay back wherever you guys can't see me, but I can see you, while we wait for my replacement. After that, I'm gone, and you can't say a thing about what I do. Are we clear?"
  461. [02:53:19] * Tip nods.
  462. [02:53:45] <Tip> "I still think you should talk to Savage, but whatever." Tip seems much more visually relaxed
  463. [02:54:05] <Alexei> "Should still speak to Savage. Am starting think YOU need emotional closure too, even if not want admit."
  464. [02:54:15] <Rikala> Rikala gives a simple nod and turns to face away from the group. Emotions she isn't used to...
  465. [02:55:15] <Rock> "...fine." Rock walks in the room where Savage was lying down and sits down on a chair. "...I don't know what to say, that I haven't already said."
  466. [02:56:18] <Savage> Savage does not respond, except to shut his eyes.
  467. [02:56:19] : Alexei closes the door. "Rika. Is go without need say, but now is not time for read mind either." Alexei drags a few chairs further down the hall and gestures for the rest of the team to sit.
  468. [02:56:36] * Tip looks at Alex, then follows and sits down
  469. [02:57:13] * KainonaChain (Anonymous@sux-572F48C2.jan.bellsouth.net) has left #TalentScouts
  470. [02:57:32] * Rikala walks over and picks a seat without a word. <I agree Alyosha.>
  471. [02:58:21] * Tip places his sunglasses on his face and forces himself to relax, his mind racing is causing this to be hard.
  472. [02:58:38] <Rock> "...I'll start with this. I didn't realize that the earthquake would hit you... or your Pokemon." he said, staring at the dead Chimchar.
  473. [02:59:26] <Rock> "...I don't know what else to say... hopeless..."
  474. [02:59:55] <Tip> (Rock stop being the tragic figure ;-;)
  475. [03:00:21] : Alexei raises his flask to his mouth and finds it to be empty. "Hmph" He shoves it back into his jacket.
  476. [03:00:31] <Rock> (...is it bad that the reason Rock has nothing to say is because I can't think of anything?)
  477. [03:00:48] <Rikala> (I think we're all at that point)
  478. [03:00:52] <Savage> Savage moves, finally - but it's not a movement that Rock wanted. He's just slowly getting out of bed... and, carrying Wukong against his chest - and Cuddles hopping onto his shoulder... he just walks right past Rock and out of the room, without a word.
  479. [03:01:11] <Rock> "...Alexei, please watch him."
  480. [03:02:08] : Alexei nods and watches where Savage is going, following if he starts leaving line of sight and motioning for Rika and Tip to do the same.
  481. [03:02:39] <Rikala> 1d10 purse check
  482. [03:02:39] <Savage> Not stopped; he looks around to gauge a way out - but when he sees Alexei following him, he turns. "I asked to be left alone. Okay?"
  483. [03:02:40] <DiceMaid-9001> Rikala, purse check: 10 [1d10=10]
  484. [03:02:45] <Tip> (You guys are so depressing ;;)
  485. [03:03:34] * Rikala nods and stays behind Alex. She looks through her purse a bit and finds a bar of chocolate she had been saving. Without a moment's hesitation she unwraps it and take a giant bite.
  486. [03:03:52] <Alexei> <Perhaps you should explain, Rika.>
  487. [03:03:57] <Rikala> (that's right... it's CHOCOLATE DEPRESSING)
  488. [03:05:22] * Tip stands up and stands somewhere were he can see Alex and Rika, and Rock in case he leave and do something rash
  489. [03:05:54] <Savage> Savage doesn't wait too long for an answer; he just turns away and starts heading out - only stopping if someone else chases after him.
  490. [03:06:07] * Rock sighed. It was almost like Tip knew he was going to escape given the chance.
  491. [03:06:22] <Rikala> <I don't even know what to do with myself... what do I even tell him?>
  492. [03:07:14] <Alexei> <Well, is not good leave alone. Could run to ambush again. You follow Savage, I follow you. If he ask, I here for protect you.>
  493. [03:07:50] * Tip backs to where Rock is and kinda stands at the door
  494. [03:07:56] <Rikala> <I suppose you're right...> "Savage! Wait up please!" She chases after him.
  495. [03:08:10] <Rock> "...where's Rikala and Alexei?"
  496. [03:08:20] : Alexei waits a few seconds, then follows Rika, one hand held on his sword.
  497. [03:08:40] <Alexei> keeping a bit of distance, eyes scanning the surroundings at all times.
  498. [03:09:06] <Tip> "Watching Savage. Alex can handle things for a small group..."
  499. [03:09:40] <Savage> "No!" He turns sharply, and for once, there's finally something back in his voice that isn't... empty. It's... angry. "Go away!"
  500. [03:10:20] <Rock> "...and I have to watch you, so it's not like..." Rock sighs again. "...Savage... I really doubt that's his real name... he must be tired of that name."
  501. [03:10:53] <Rikala> Something snaps in Rikala too, though it's something different. "I will not! I will not abandon my friends! I will not just leave someone alone that is obviously in pain! I will not let you go out there alone and risk running into another fight!"
  502. [03:11:09] <Tip> "Nah... I believe that was his own choice... And you're not watching me, I'm watching you."
  503. [03:11:28] : Alexei simply continues in silence, keeping the same distance from the pair.
  504. [03:12:51] <Rock> "...same here. I'd feel guilty if I let you be attacked..." Rock sighs and stares at Tip. "...can't you just join the others?"
  505. [03:13:08] <Tip> "No."
  506. [03:13:41] <Rock> "Of course..."
  507. [03:13:54] <Savage> Savage bounces back and forth on his heels, clearly getting frustrated. "This isn't about 'abandoning' me or any stupid thing like that. It's that I want to be alone and I have things that must be taken care of alone, so... Piss off!" Savage snaps.
  508. [03:14:28] <Rock> "..."
  509. [03:15:05] <Tip> "Besides, I'm sure Al' can handle anything... Crazy old man..." Tip almost chuckles, but becomes serious once more. "However, as things stands, I'm making sure you don't do anything rash got it?
  510. [03:15:20] <Rikala> Rikala's tears have stopped... replaced by resolve now. "Do you think for one second that it's a good idea to run off by yourself? Did you not see how serious that man was fighting back there? You think you can take them on alone? Do you?"
  511. [03:15:27] <Rock> "..."
  512. [03:15:49] <Tip> "Got it?"
  513. [03:16:05] <Savage> "Oh, jeez, because I'm going to be ambushed one second out the door, is that it? If you're going to call me a 'friend' put a little trust in me!"
  514. [03:16:07] <Rock> "...then I..." Rock started, but then trailed off.
  515. [03:16:22] <Tip> "Hmm what?"
  516. [03:17:34] <Rikala> Rikala stopped at those words... he had a point... but... "It's not about trust... it's about worry. You could be the most powerful warrior in the world and... I would still be giving this same reaction..."
  517. [03:17:38] <Rock> "Then I'm sorry about this in advance." Rock quickly grabbed his bow and an arrow and kept it locked on Tip. "Now, if you'll do what's right for you, I suggest you go somewhere else and report me."
  518. [03:18:10] <KlarkKralk> (...wat)
  519. [03:18:16] <Alexei> (wtf)
  520. [03:18:24] <Botherer> (Wait WHAT?!?)
  521. [03:18:33] <Alexei> (and I thought I was taking it a bit far using butterfree to subdue Rock)
  522. [03:18:37] <Rikala> (my mind is lost now)
  523. [03:18:46] * Tip looks at Rock, and has the "are you serious?" look on his face.
  524. [03:18:49] <Alexei> (does no one in the hospital notice he's pulled out a weapon?)
  525. [03:18:59] <Tip> (I think... I just watted)
  526. [03:19:02] <Alexei> (I mean, it's at night, but there are nurses and security around, right?)
  527. [03:19:23] <KlarkKralk> Several nurses shriek and a doctor rushes by "What the hell do you think you are doing?"
  528. [03:19:37] <Tip> (I don't even I don't know)
  529. [03:20:18] <Rock> "...you don't think I'm serious?" Rock fired an arrow that brushed Tip's ear. "I'm trying to get him to leave. I want to leave this building, but this guy has been keeping me hostage. This is self-defense."
  530. [03:20:25] <Savage> Savage looks towards the commotion. "...If you can't tell, it's not me you should be worried about. I will be fine on my own; I have been for eightteen years."
  531. [03:22:02] <KlarkKralk> The doctor smiles gently "Yeah okay sure. Keeping you hostage got it. Sure, he is gonna let you go now. Yeah. Step away from him sir."
  532. [03:22:33] * Tip stands there, dumbfounded. He can't move, he's just staring, same "are you serious look on his face." With the docter's words, Tip slaps his face. "A... are.... You have to be shitting me..." He then takes a step back.
  533. [03:23:01] <Rikala> Rikala hears the commotion but doesn't turn away for one second. <Alex... please tell me that isn't who I think it is back there...> "Make it quick and... if I don't see you back here again I will find you... don't make me worry about you even more."
  534. [03:23:29] <Rock> "..." Rock then stands up and casually walks out. "I'm scared of that guy... can you make sure he doesn't touch me again?"
  535. [03:23:39] : Alexei turns back. <Yes, is Rock play at martyr again. Sorry to say.>
  536. [03:23:41] <Savage> "I'll return, don't worry. ...Wukong and I... our peace can't be found in a place as unnatural as this." He nods to her, then turns and starts heading out.
  537. [03:23:49] <Rock> putting away his bow*
  538. [03:24:14] <Tip> "... A..." Tip can't formulate words
  539. [03:24:14] <KlarkKralk> "Oh yeah sure thing sir."
  540. [03:24:25] <Rikala> <I trust you Savage. You are my friend... just be careful please.>
  541. [03:24:44] <Rock> "...I don't have to run away from him, do I?"
  542. [03:25:14] <KlarkKralk> 'Come on sir lets just step away for a moment..."
  543. [03:26:19] * Rock takes out his Pokedex and throws it inside the room. "That thing was bugged. That's how he found me in the first place." he said, before... "where is the exit, sir?"

  546. [03:26:47] <Rikala> As a sign to Savage, Rikala turns to look back towards the commotion. "Rock... I swear... you must have gotten your name from what is in your head."
  547. [03:26:54] * Tip looks at the doctor, and looks at him. He wants to see "Don't believe this, he's going on a suicide mission," but he is far too Flaborgasted for it to come out. He merely looks back at Rock, a look of almost betrayal in his eyes and walks off.
  548. [03:26:59] <KlarkKralk> The doctor points down the hall to large double doors.
  549. [03:27:55] * Rock nods. "Tell the guy who's supposed to be in that room that I'm sorry, okay?" He said to both of them before he walked out of the double doors.

  554. [03:30:30] <Rikala> (It's 4:30 AM and I have a killer headache)
  555. [03:30:48] <Kuji> (Aw man. Get some rest then, Rikala.)
  556. [03:30:48] <Tip> (Get some sleep deary. )
