ThatBaka:
Do you truly love me (´･ω･`)
MarthTrinity:
WELP, GUESS THE CAMPAIGN'S OVER.
Agi:
Define "truly" and "love"

ThatBaka:
its ok I can wait (´･ω･`)

ThatBaka:
Can I wake up every morning and say "yes, this is worth it" (´･ω･`)
Agi:
oh, well obviously not then, are you kidding me

Clockwork Angel:
get outta my goddamned house charlotte this is the last time for fuck's sake
Agi:
Get her out yourself

ThatBaka:
Because man I feel more and more like agey every day (´･ω･`)
Agi:
I hear Gilligan's Island downstairs

Clockwork Angel:
Do I look like a GM to you
TWILT has connected.

Clockwork Angel:
What does that even mean Tirk

Rosalinda :
sorry if I was late for the party :x

ThatBaka:
Something has set in, and I do not like it (´･ω･`)

ThatBaka:
But either way it is time for some tabltopan

Clockwork Angel:
If you don't wanna play at half-past negative then don't man
MarthTrinity:
I'm off tomorrow too
MarthTrinity:
If that's better for everynun

ThatBaka:
Sadly it is the curse I am eternally befuddled with I'm sorry guys (´･ω･`)
Agi:
Like I said, I'm closing every night this week
Agi:
except now and Sunday

ThatBaka:
What does that mean then
MarthTrinity:
We can only play now if we're going to
MarthTrinity:
Is what it means

ThatBaka:
Alright just lemme douse my face in water first
MarthTrinity:
No sense in pushing yourself if you can't/don't want to man

ThatBaka:
but I've gotten so far
Agi:
Why didn't they just kill Gilligan off, anyway

ThatBaka:
I can't turn back yet
Agi:
you could get alotta meals out of that, if nothing else
MarthTrinity:

Clockwork Angel:
no but seriously charlotte, the door, you, stage a reunion

ThatBaka:
Alright, I think I've woken up enough

ThatBaka:
I'd fo the whole previously thing but I don't really remember what happened last time

Rosalinda :
well I'm just waiting to know if we're practicing for the band today

Clockwork Angel:
well Charlotte left the psychic wars here and rosa had a mental breakdown, that was about it

ThatBaka:
More or less, but I did want to propose something

Clockwork Angel:
oh and The D fought The T

ThatBaka:
Are you planning anything particularly major between now and friday

ThatBaka:
as in, in-game
MarthTrinity:
Not I.

Rosalinda :
(hmm) Not particularly, aside from the usual school routine

ThatBaka:
Because at this point anything between today's practice and the actual performance would be filler to the nth degree
Agi:
Alright, sorry, got sidetracked with moving a TV there
Agi:
I have absolutely nothing of note to accomplish
Agi:
You are free to interpret that in any number of ways, all would be accurate
MarthTrinity:
Would be fine skipping this practice even =3=

ThatBaka:
Well there is one kinda character I wanted to introduce here

Clockwork Angel:
I guess Darius doens't have anything that needs to be acted out particularly

Clockwork Angel:
there's the psychic wars experiments but unless you have something in mind it should be okay to skip them
Agi:
>20 years old
Agi:
>never had a TV in my room
Agi:
it feels good to fix these things
Clockwork Angel: (( you won't use it ))
Agi:
nigga I got a year's supply of PS2 games sitting right there
Agi:
you bet your ass I will
Clockwork Angel: (( Starting to think tirk passed out ))
Clockwork Angel: (( and MT, and twilt ))
MarthTrinity:
I'm here, but we may as well just pass tonight since it's already 9:00

Rosalinda :
I'm here too

Lucy:
Close but I can still make it, if only for this one scene
Rosalinda : (( so confirmed we're all skipping practice? ))
Clockwork Angel: (( I think practice WAS the one scene ))
Agi: (( It might be, who knows ))

Lucy:
it was indeed
Agi: (( alright, guess I'll be over there in not entirely too long ))
Clockwork Angel: (( You people should develop your intuition (D) ))

Lucy:
But yeah for now, the actual practice room is currently occupied by Lucy, Slash and a few new patrons trying to get their practice in....any practice in really. However, things have evidently been slightly difficult for them, which should be apparent in just a few moments.

Tiffany:
but just how few shall those moments be

The Anarchist: (( Oh hey we're here too how'd that happen ))

Cheryl:
"Bloody fuckin' 'ell. This day feels like it's been goin' on for fuckin' ever now." Cheryl sighs, dropping her cigarette to the ground before grinding it out beneath her foot.

Ladd:
"Alriiight..." Ladd tries his damndest to properly secure the hefty personal equipment in one place. "Alright, you should be ready in-" the lad looks up to see the stage already occupied. "...the hell? Since when did this dump get so popular?"

Chaz:
"Alright...." A tired out boy in a snazzy suit takes a deep breath, attempting to get himself together. "Take uh...what is this, the 22nd take today? Dis shit is gettin on my nerves..."

Rosalinda :
"*sigh* Come on we gotta do this..."

Tiffany:
"Sheesh... our fault for getting here this late, I guess."

Slash:
"Oh hey. Didn't expect to see you here so early. Maybe now we can have an actual party."

Lucy:
Lucy sits on the chair, looking a mite frustrated.

Lucy:
">:T"

Cheryl:
"Oi, Blues Bothers, how long you plan on hoggin' the bloody stage for?" Cheryl asks, quite proud of her own little pun.

Rosalinda :
"Hey Lucy. You seem upset; everything okay, girl?"

Charlie:
"Good show, good show, is what I'd wish to say, but I'm afraid there are some difficulties ahead of us, mmn yes..." The older man grabs a drink from the backup band accompanying him.

Chaz:
The younger brother tips his hat and makes a short stride off the stage. "Oh sweet mary louise, I thought nobody else came here. But hell on a hotrod, now I see why!"

Lucy:
Lucy explains that she hasn't gotten any real practice in all day due to varying reasons, only one of which seem to be the fedora brothers up top.
Rosalinda : (( >fedora brothers ))
Tiffany: (( oh right, she's in a band too ))
Tiffany: (( but really, who isn't these days ))

Chaz:
"But go ahead. Be my guess. By the way ladies, name's Chazz. Be sure to catch our show dis friday at da Break-fest, y'hear me?" The kid whips out his promo card and tosses it with a clearly well-practiced gesture.

Rosalinda :
"...Uhhhh..." Linda says as she picks up the card which I assume is gonna explode in my face.

Cheryl:
"Never heard of ya, love. Must be smalltime."

Charlie:
The older brother on the other hand twirls a rose from his sleeve and sniffs in a most cavalier manner. "We go by the name of the Tipper Brothers. Perhaps you could consider joining our fanclub, as written so neatly on the back. See, we have a website and everything. I designed it myself!"
Tiffany: (( ooh, is it a Geocities ))
The Anarchist: (( I don't think any of them know what the internet is ))

Chaz:
"Tell me about it. I haven't seen so many dancing babies and spinning pictures of hats in one place before. Tis a real sight to behold."

Ladd:
"Alright alright, I think we get the idea, kid slick. Now, I think we have everything set up, I think...."

Lucy:
Lucy silently explains while their backs are turned that she thinks alternative synthpop is too pretentious.

Cheryl:
"Well if this is the competition, guess we got nothin to worry about." Cheryl mutters to Charlotte.

Tiffany:
"I wouldn't call them our biggest competition by a long shot... not like we got a chance to hear them play, though," Charlotte murmurs back.
Tiffany: (( or even saw their instruments as far as I noticed ))
The Anarchist: (( well the instruments were probably seen, considering they were about to do another take ))

Cheryl:
"You can tell a lot about someone's music by their looks, Tiff. And these clowns are all about show." Cheryl nods sagely as she replies to Charlotte.
The Anarchist: (( you realize she's the showiest one there right ))

Charlie:
It should be noted that the brothers are accompanied by a decent-sized band in the background, ala the blues brothers. It's just that they have no tokens.
Tiffany: (( by a long shot (sad) ))
Tiffany: (( ...well a'ight, six years later, I unlocked another Brawl challenge ))
Tiffany: (( "play 4999 matches" ))
Tiffany: (( I guess the next one's at 10000 (waiting) ))

Tiffany:
Charlotte, indeed being the showiest one this side of the red light district, flushes a little. "Right, well - let's get started then!"

Slash:
"Heh, show? I'll give them all the show people can ask for, and more! As soon as we can practice....boohooo..."

Ladd:
"Yeah, well, you'll need to work on that if you plan on making show business anytime soon. All bark and no bite never got anyone anywhere, you know?"

Slash:
"Heh? Is that a challenge? You wanna throw down, huh?"

Ladd:
"Huh? Me? Um, I'm not sure if-?"

Slash:
"Wanna settle this one-on-one? Mano e mano? Think you're down to get rough with the roughest around? Huh?" Slash angrily pumps his arms.

Cheryl:
"He's callin' ya out, Ladd. You gonna take that or ya gonna man up?"

Ladd:
"Listen, I think that you're getting a bit too fired up here, I'm just here to..."

Slash:
"Yeah, you gonna man up? Huh, boy? Huh?" You can feel the primal aggression in Slash's face.

Ladd:
"Okay, I'm sure this would be all well and fine in any other situation, but the truth of the matter is, I'm gonna be kinda bus-"

Rosalinda :
"Ohhhh boy..."

Slash:
Slash RIPS OFF his shirt and presses his pecs against Ladd's cowering body. "EEH? WHAT WAS THAT NOW? ARE YOU SAYING YOU CAN'T BACK UP YOUR WORDS WITH SHIT? HUH? HUH? OH YEAH THAT'S RIGHT! WHO'S YOUR DADDY?"

Ladd:
"OKAY THIS IS GETTING REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE, CAN YOU PLEASE PRACTICE ALREADY D:"

Lucy:
*slight nosebleed*

The Anarchist:
i'm guessing that means the session's over, i mean you don't get much more "i need a break" than that

Cheryl:
"...bloody 'ell this got real weird, real fast."

Rosalinda :
"...should we help him?"

Tiffany:
"Hey, Stoplight, back off. He's not even in the band anymore, if you break him down, then YOU'RE helping us lug our shit back."
The Anarchist: (( i didn't even know charlotte knew the word shit ))

Slash:
Slash smugly untighens his chest, and pushes at Ladd's now cowering-in-a-fetal-position body with his foot. "Heh, you heard her. Now get your ass up before I have to cover for you."
Tiffany: (( well, she called Casey "assface" ))
Tiffany: (( so I dunno ))

Slash:
"After all, it must be real unfortunate to be as easily broken as you. Heh. I'll try to go easier next time."

Cheryl:
Cheryl shakes her head, "Ladd can fight his own battles..."
The Anarchist: (( ladd can LOSE his own battles ))

Ladd:
Ladd wipes the rolling tears off his eyes. "Honestly, I have no idea if you're just fuckin' with me or not..."

Slash:
"That's for you to decide, buddy. Now where's my backup shirts...it's damn cold out there."

Cheryl:
"...tch."

Ladd:
"Guh..." Ladd begrudgingly clenches his teeth. "I think I need a drink after all this. Now, as I was saying before, your equipment should be all ready with now..."

Rosalinda :
"...Lets just go practice -_-"

ThatBaka:
And so you go and practice...or at least you attempt to. Because as it turns out, no matter how well prepared your equipment is, and how finely turned your instruments can get, they can't overcome the sheer force of well...whatever it is seems to be blowing out there.
Tiffany: (( as in... wind? ))

Wendam:
WOODwind to be specific. "Alright, one more time, and make it COUNT this time! A one, a two, and a skiddly diddly doo!"

Tubas:
*PHHHWOOOOOOO* It seems a certain marching band is cooking up a pure thunderstorm of noise outside.
The Anarchist: (( how many people have secretly been here ))

Wendam:
"Alright, Wuldrich's Tail Concerto Act 3 Part 4 in D Major, this is the finale, now make it count!" With an elegant swing of her baton, the pure force of the band come together...

Tubas:
...and literally blow the roof off the warehouse. (And also creates a hole in the wall that blasts Ladd to the other side.

Ladd:
"It's just been one of those days...." Ladd casually mutters while flying upside-down

Cheryl:
"....Oh fuck me. This shit's getting goddamn ridiculous..."

Wendam:
Just realizing the impact of the finale a while later, the band leader walks in through the hole and takes a look around. "Nyeh? I didn't realize there was garbage in this dump. Since when were people around this waste?"
Tiffany: (( how is this place so unknown amongst the music crowd when it was defined as the most known place amongst the music crowd ))
Tiffany: (( sheeit ))

Slash:
"Oh hey, look! It's the reason why we haven't been able to get any practice in all day. I didn't realize there was a face to all this madness."
Wendam: (( cmon guys ))
Wendam: (( I thought I was supposed to be the dead one here (scb) ))
Wendam: (( unless I've been caught in a time rift ))

Rosalinda :
"...Who are you bozos?"

Cheryl:
"Sounds like you've got a whole bloody symphony orchestra goin' on out there.

Cheryl:
"

Radio:
NOW PLAYING Hiroyuki Sawano - GoriLLAjaL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDvq9USBbUA

Wendam:
"Hyeh? Symphony is but ONE way to put it, if I do say so myself. I am from a higher class of music, after all."
Rosalinda : (( oh god we're fighting ))

Wendam:
Wendam takes a bow/curtsey. "My name is Wendam. Shocked to see you here, of all places. I take it you're among the top ranked among these poverty bands, correct?"
The Anarchist: (( don't you know her ))
The Anarchist: (( like I'm pretty sure she's in your music class ))
Tiffany: (( we do indeed, Rosa and I do at least ))
Tiffany: (( er, Linda ))
Tiffany: (( I don't even care anymore ))
The Anarchist: (( the hella ya asking who she is then come on get it togetha ))

Wendam:
"Tsk tsk. I honestly expected better of you Linda. Have I gotten thrown so out of public favor that these lowlives are a more appealing proposition than the good ol' school band? Don't you love your school? Do you not love your town? Country?"

Cheryl:
Cheryl yawns and stretches her arms, "Sorry princess, were you still talkin'? All I can hear is snooty shit spewin' outta yer mouth like a broken loo."

Wendam:
"After all, to be anti-school is to be anti-american! Millions of men died for one purpose: to raise and plant the seeds for the future! And yet here you are..."
Rosalinda : (( I don't remember (WARY) ))
Wendam: (( she showed up in your music class ))
Tiffany: (( No need to remember, she did ))
Tiffany: (( she's head of the band club or some shit ))
Tiffany: (( spoilers, the band club is shit ))
Wendam: (( and looked at you real funny like, and was explained to be the much-revered head of the school band ))

Rosalinda :
Linda thinks to herself, "Sorry, you're kinda forgettable~" Linda says, playing dumb.

Wendam:
"Hah hah. Real funny there my wonderful donut-haired rascal. What would I do without you people...." Wendy turns around and barks orders at her band. "Did I SAY you could stop? It's time to practice Wuldrich's Tail Concerto Act 4 Part 1 in D Major, and make it a rehearsal to remember!"

Tubas:
Wendy has a way with words that inspires utmost confidence in her subordinates, one that results in a very bold and confident sound.

Tiffany:
"'scuse me, but what makes you think that you can come in here and claim the place as your own? We were starting our own practice session before you barged in."

Wendam:
"Ooooh, oooo oooooh, wait hold on..." Wendam clears out something in her ears. "Alright, you can stop everyone. Stop it all. This one random lowlife just said we weren't allowed to practice around here because they lack the sheer impression we do, and we should feel sorry for them."

Rosalinda :
"Not really, we just want to practice :V"

Cheryl:
"Sounds liek she needs to more if she's breakin down goddamn walls with her shitty band's playing."

Wendam:
Wendy puts the back of her hand up to her mouth "Dohohoho! See, do you see just how silly that sounds? Do you? All right, all right, this place is giving me a headache anyway. I look forward to seeing you creeps this friday. At least, you ARE coming to the big bash this friday, are you not? I hear the most lavish things about the cuisine of Holy Loly Square."

Wendam:
"Of course, you should be thankful enough you get to hear our wonderful performance forged in years of non-stop practice for free like this. Even if a few pieces of shoddy walling must die in the process."
The Anarchist: (( you guys are such goddamned hypocrites (D) ))
The Anarchist: (( your stand's POWER is to break shit with your shitty music (D) ))

Rosalinda :
"Are...are you coming on to us?" Linda says, still playing dumb. She realizes she prolly shouldn't feed her ego...

Cheryl:
"..."

Wendam:
"Absolutely adorable line of thought, I really appreciate it. Sadly, my band is fresh out of members, so you missed that chance a while ago. But don't worry! I'll take that as a yes to seeing us on friday. And who knows? We might free up some space by then."

Wendam:
*member slots whathaveyou

Rosalinda :
"Can you go now? :V"
Tiffany: (( damn, I really need to -not- turn off my own typing notifications ))

Cheryl:
"Yeah, your yapping is makin' me sick."
Tiffany: (( ah well ))

Wendam:
"Heh. Don't you know that if you keep making faces like that, it'll freeze that way forever? That said, my most lovely band is always in dire need of my guidance, so I shall try and guide their way. It was wonderful talking to you, but alas, the spirit of the school beckons out to me!"
The Anarchist: (( you can just say it all anyhow ))
Tiffany: (( nah, any sort of rivalry I could've attempted to set up should have been done months ago. ))
Tiffany: (( too late now ))

Wendam:
Wendam goes back to leading her band in place, but the sheer amount of noise from her bombastic performances is enough to make this a difficult pratice session to stomach."

Rosalinda :
"...man what a bitch"

Rosalinda :
*sigh*

Slash:
"Welcome to the industry, forks. But hey, at least the big band can't keep this up all day. We'll get that practicing in done soon. Eventually. Soonventually."

ThatBaka:
and that's just about all I wanted to get done with this segment, so if you have anything else, then...

Cheryl:
I'm gewd

Rosalinda :
same

Rosalinda :
So is next session going to be new day or are we actually gonna practice?

ThatBaka:
honey, this WAS the practice

Rosalinda :
(beaker)

The Anarchist:
practice would just be rolling again anyhow if you "acted it out"

ThatBaka:
next session is, as I made a point of before, is just gonna skip to friday

ThatBaka:
which is where a bulk of everything takes place

Rosalinda :
Friday morning or Friday at the showdown

Tiffany:
"Do you intend to accomplish anything on Friday morning"

The Anarchist:
I guess with all this being skipped

The Anarchist:
Darius can just be implied to've worked on all those fucking styles

ThatBaka:
RIGHT RIGHT I FORGOT

ThatBaka:
I made a point to have the actual concert be stage 4

ThatBaka:
So that is one actual proper level more

ThatBaka:
from level 3

The Anarchist:
does that count for Al too

Rosalinda :
Soooo what?

ThatBaka:
no Al's still for all intents and purposes level 3

The Anarchist:
Or not, since...I dunno, I doubt he'll be skipping to Friday

Tiffany:
Well that's gotta be the most anticlimactic level up I've ever witnessed

Rosalinda :
We gotta fight something to level up before Friday?

ThatBaka:
because of that

Rosalinda :
So start statting for level 4?

The Anarchist:
And the most anticlimactic level up most likely happened in TF1

Tiffany:
I really do find myself wishing you'd introduced Wendam much, much, much earlier

ThatBaka:
but I did

Tiffany:
I coulda done something there

The Anarchist:
You itnroduced her a few sessions ago IIRC

Tiffany:
You introduced her, like, two sessions ago

The Anarchist:
which, yeah, was like two months ago

The Anarchist:
but still

Darius:
god damn it this means I'm going to have to edit amost all of my moves, because Ki

ThatBaka:
but yes

ThatBaka:
Stage 4 is balanced for level 4 ish

Rosalinda :
So start statting for next session?

ThatBaka:
and I doubt we'll have time to have a giant battle before that, soooo yeah go ahead

Darius:
I could potentially have one, I guess

Darius:
depending on how the Al stuff goes down

Darius:
But I'm pretty certain Darius would curbstomp Al, so it would not really be a giant battle

Azure:
Shall I stat Azure to level 4 too orrrr did you want to involve him in a Gaiden session or something first?

ThatBaka:
gaiden is still L3

Tiffany:
nigheim, there isn't going to BE another gaiden session

Azure:
Still on that writer's block tirk..?

ThatBaka:
just a little

ThatBaka:
I can still probably BS something, but I'd really much rather just focus on the main game

Azure:
Welllllllll....

Azure:
when's the next day we can all play anyway?

Tiffany:
No idea

Tiffany:
I don't have my schedule for next week yet

Tiffany:
But, assuming it returns to normal

Tiffany:
Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday are no good

Azure:
Guess we're not gonna be playing again for a while then :T
Tokens dropped onto map 'Cobblestone2Revengeance' by player Agi (Player)

Azure:
Ah well, not much can be done I suppose

Charlotte:
But yeah, dammit, I could have had an actual character arc here

Charlotte:
Like, I dunno, competing to overthrow her position as head of the band club
TWILT is disconnected.

Darius:
oh right qualities

ThatBaka:
fine then *uses stairway to heaven to reboot game from beginning*

Charlotte:
exactly, Tirk

Charlotte:
exactly

Charlotte:
why you thought to go for the vaguely indian jock instead I'll never know
