  1. [15:09] <Rapey_Lemons> It is currently afternoon. The temperatures are currently high, but luckily you're in an air-conditioned room in the manager's office of your bank. You're at your desk, doing what you normally do, and waiting for people to bring their problems to you.
  2. [15:09] <Rapey_Lemons> (describe what you're wearing, please)
  3. [15:10] * Constance is wearing knee-length khaki shorts, which are hidden by the desk, and a formal looking blouse with short sleeves
  4. [15:11] <Rapey_Lemons> (character description, perhaps, so people can know what you look like)
  5. [15:13] * Constance has her chestnut hair tied back in a ponytail going midway down her back and wears thick prescription lenses over large green eyes
  6. [15:14] <Rapey_Lemons> Someone knocks on your door.
  7. [15:14] <Constance> "Come in."
  8. [15:15] <Rapey_Lemons> The door open and a young man steps inside, his neatly combed-back black hair and black business suit giving him a professional appearance.
  9. [15:16] <Constance> "How may I help you?"
  10. [15:16] <Rapey_Lemons> "Hello, Ms. Clearwater." He grins. "You're even more striking in person."
  11. [15:17] <Rapey_Lemons> He slowly walks toward your desk, a hand proffering a handshake.
  12. [15:17] <Rapey_Lemons> (layout of office and bank for reference http://i.imgur.com/6IWPAT6.jpg?1)
  13. [15:18] * Constance stands up to her full six foot four inches to accept the handshake
  14. [15:19] <Constance> ((*and accepts))
  15. [15:20] <Rapey_Lemons> He looks at you, his grin growing wider. He's almost as tall as you, perhaps an inch shorter, and not as lean as you. His hand grips yours firmly for a moment before pulling away.
  16. [15:20] <Rapey_Lemons> "You're quite tall for a woman, Ms. Clearwater. May I sit?"
  17. [15:20] <Constance> "Of course."
  18. [15:21] * Constance sits back down herself
  19. [15:22] <Rapey_Lemons> He pulls out the chair and takes a seat at your desk, his hands folded on top of it. "You know, no matter how strong someone might be, that strength is useless if they do not understand how to use it. Wouldn't you agree?"
  20. [15:24] <Constance> "I would, but I must ask that you cut to the chase. I have tasks which require my timely attendance."
  21. [15:26] <Constance> "But before you do, could I get your name, please?"
  22. [15:27] <Rapey_Lemons> "Call me... Stefan."
  23. [15:27] * Constance gives a subtle nod
  24. [15:27] <Rapey_Lemons> He resumes his previous train of thought. "Ah, of course. You /are/ a busy woman." He clears his throat, a gesture that seems slightly unnecessary and forced. "How would you feel if someone offered you a chance at immortality? After all, life is short." He shakes his head. "My apologies, i'm being long-winded again. Would you like to hear of my offer? Of eternal life?"
  25. [15:29] <Constance> "Are you with a pharameceutical?"
  26. [15:30] <Constance> ((spell-check in aisle three))
  27. [15:33] <Rapey_Lemons> He thinks for a moment. "You could say that. Although, this eternal life comes from more... natural means, I suppose. Or perhaps it's unnatural," he says, chuckling to himself. He regains his composure. "It is not without benefits, of course. Accept my offer and not only will you gain immortality, but your business will also prosper. Perhaps you might even recieve another source of income." He
  28. [15:33] <Rapey_Lemons> shrugs and leans toward you. "Who knows? It all comes down to whether you'll willing accept my offer. Or not. Your decision."
  29. [15:33] <Rapey_Lemons> willingly*
  30. [15:35] <Constance> "What corporation do you represent, Mr. Stefan?"
  31. [15:36] <Rapey_Lemons> He shakes his head, smiling. "Unfortunately, I'm unable to offer you further information until you respond to my inquiry." He stops smiling, his black eyes staring deep into yours. "Is that a yes or a no, Ms. Clearwater?"
  32. [15:38] * Constance bites a lip wondering if she should just dismiss this weirdo
  33. [15:38] <Constance> "I'll hear your offer."
  34. [15:39] <Rapey_Lemons> "Ms. Clearwater, that /was/ my offer. Take it... or refuse it."
  35. [15:40] <Rapey_Lemons> "Eternal life. Side-benefits. Money. Look at what you could recieve."
  36. [15:40] <Rapey_Lemons> "A simple yes or no will suffice."
  37. [15:42] <Constance> "I am unable to accept such an extravagant proposition without a great deal more information than you've chosen to disclose. Have a good afternoon."
  38. [15:45] <Rapey_Lemons> "That's a shame," the man says, standing up. "I thought you'd have been smarter." He grins, exposing all of his gleaming white teeth, and walks to the door. Instead of leaving, however, he locks it from the inside before turning back to you.
  39. [15:46] <Rapey_Lemons> He pulls out a phone and dials a number. "I've ran into a little trouble, but I can take care of this. Give me a few minutes and we'll be back."
  40. [15:47] <Constance> "If I indulge you, can we be back before closing time? "
  41. [15:49] <Rapey_Lemons> He snaps his phone shut and begins walking towards you. "Silly girl, you won't be back days at the very least. Think of this as a... conscription. Into an army of sorts."
  42. [15:50] <Rapey_Lemons> for days*
  43. [15:51] <Rapey_Lemons> "We could sit and negotiate, but my time is running short and candidates of such caliber like you are rare. Let's get this over with quickly."
  44. [15:54] * Constance withdraws the S&W, thumbs the safety, and puts it to her temple
  45. [15:54] <Constance> "It's a bad election year. I'm dropping out."
  46. [15:57] <Rapey_Lemons> He stops in his tracks, surprised and momentarily at a loss for words. "Well then," he says slowly. "I suppose I could have a brain-damaged soldier, but it would be quite inconvient at the very least." He sighs. "Then perhaps not today, Ms. Clearwater." He turns his back to you and begins walking back to the door at a normal pace.
  47. [15:59] * Constance does not lower the gun until he has exited
  48. [16:00] <Rapey_Lemons> He turns back to glance at you one more time, shaking his head, before unlocking the door and leaving your room.
  49. [16:01] * Constance sets the handgun down on her desk and relaxes back into her chair, wondering how she was going to spend the rest of her day now
  50. [16:01] <Rapey_Lemons> A few minutes pass. Roll notice.
  51. [16:03] <Constance> )roll 1d100 + 25
  52. [16:04] <Rapey_Lemons> (hmm)
  53. [16:04] <Constance> ((Is it without spaces or something?))
  54. [16:05] <Rapey_Lemons> (pretty sure crunk aint here unless i'm blind)
  55. [16:05] <~Kroked> ((just a sec))
  56. [16:05] <~Kroked> ((had to reset my comp this morning and forgot to re bring in crunk))
  57. [16:06] <Constance> )roll 1d100+25
  58. [16:06] * Demonbot --> "Constance rolls 1d100+25 and gets 45."
  59. [16:08] <Rapey_Lemons> You're feeling a little woozy. Probably just the adrenaline leaving your system.
  60. [16:10] <Rapey_Lemons> (what do you do now?)
  61. [16:11] * Constance walks over to the water cooler in the room to get a drink
  62. [16:11] <Constance> ((*in the corner))
  63. [16:13] <Rapey_Lemons> You do so, the cool water pouring down your throat in a refreshing cascade.
  64. [16:13] <Rapey_Lemons> Roll phr.
  65. [16:15] <Constance> )roll 1d100+45
  66. [16:15] * Demonbot --> "Constance rolls 1d100+45 and gets 76."
  67. [16:16] <Rapey_Lemons> You collapse to your knees, your head hurting, vision blurry, and your stomach threatening to decorate the carpet.
  68. [16:17] * Constance try to crawl to the wastebin
  69. [16:17] <Constance> ((*tries))
  70. [16:18] <Rapey_Lemons> It's hard to move, even while crawling, and you roll over a few times before making your way to the wastebin. You vomit your lunch and the water you just drank into the wastebin.
  71. [16:18] <Rapey_Lemons> Roll phr
  72. [16:19] <Constance> )1d100+45
  73. [16:19] <Constance> )roll 1d100+45
  74. [16:19] * Demonbot --> "Constance rolls 1d100+45 and gets 122."
  75. [16:25] <Rapey_Lemons> You collapse, unable to move, your consciousness fading out. You vaguely hear the sound of something being wrenched apart, and then a pair of black dress shoes appears in your field of vision. Someone hauls you upright with a hand around your throat, and you come face to face with Stefan, a scowl on his face. "See how much time you wasted?" He picks you up with little effort and throws you headfirst
  76. [16:25] <Rapey_Lemons> through the windowframe that is now devoid of a window, and you collide with the ground and black out.
  77. [16:36] <Rapey_Lemons> You wake up in a white room with an oxygen mask on your face, your arms and legs strapped to the bed with thick white belts. You still feel a little naseous, but a lot better than before. An overhead fluorescent light illuminates the room, and Stefan is sitting in a chair next to you, gazing intently at his phone. "Awake, Ms. Clearwater? How are you feeling? No symptoms of memory loss or mental
  78. [16:36] <Rapey_Lemons> retardation, I should hope."
  79. [16:38] <Constance> ((Can I see clearly?))
  80. [16:39] <Rapey_Lemons> (yes)
  81. [16:41] <Constance> ((Can I speak with the oxygen mask on my face?))
  82. [16:42] <Rapey_Lemons> (a little muffled but otherwise clearly yes)
  83. [16:44] <Constance> "I expect painkillers for my trouble."
  84. [16:47] <Rapey_Lemons> "Are you in pain?" he asks, putting away his phone. "Well, no matter. All your other vitals are fine, and you body seems to be in good condition. You should have seen the last person we tried to turn without curing him of his carbon monoxide poisoning first."
  85. [16:47] <Rapey_Lemons> He opens his mouth, licking his teeth. "Prepare yourself. This may hurt a little."
  86. [16:55] * Constance sighs into the oxygen mask
  87. [17:02] <Rapey_Lemons> "No last words?" he asks, taunting you.
  88. [17:02] <Constance> "Eat shit and die."
  89. [17:03] <Rapey_Lemons> He grimaces, then leans in to bite you.
  90. [17:03] <Rapey_Lemons> Roll defense-80
  91. [17:03] <Rapey_Lemons> (if you want to resist)
  92. [17:03] <Constance> ((Resist how? I'm strapped down.))
  93. [17:03] <Rapey_Lemons> (partially immobilized)
  94. [17:04] <Rapey_Lemons> (i don't have your head/neck area strapped down anyways but resistance is probably futile)
  95. [17:05] <Constance> ((Then is there any point to having me roll it?))
  96. [17:05] <Rapey_Lemons> (to annoy him and do anything you wish to in-character)
  97. [17:06] <Constance> ((I'll pass.))
  98. [17:09] <Rapey_Lemons> He delicately bites down on your neck, and the narcotics in his saliva make you lose track of time in a whirlwind of pain of ecstasy. You regain consciousness hours later, feeling hungry and exhausted and not at all what you would think a newly-turned vampire would feel like.
  99. [17:10] <Rapey_Lemons> You're still in the same room, same bad, Stefan in the exact same position he was before, reading something on his phone in a chair next to you.
  100. [17:10] * Constance does nothing
  101. [17:12] <Rapey_Lemons> Stefan doesn't say anything and just sits there, occassionally glancing at you as he uses his phone.
  102. [17:12] <Rapey_Lemons> Ten minutes pass.
  103. [17:12] <Rapey_Lemons> Roll phr
  104. [17:13] <Constance> )roll 1d100+45
  105. [17:13] * Demonbot --> "Constance rolls 1d100+45 and gets 77."
  106. [17:13] <Rapey_Lemons> Your stomach attempts to growl and you begin to feel hungry, but you manage to surpress it.
  107. [17:14] <Constance> "Hey."
  108. [17:14] <Rapey_Lemons> Stefan shuts off his phone and puts it into his pocket, giving you his full attention. "Hello. Hungry yet?" He seems just a little bit worried, his brow slightly furrowed.
  109. [17:15] <Constance> "A little bit."
  110. [17:19] <Rapey_Lemons> He relaxes. "Oh. That's good, then." He leans over and unstraps your arms and legs, then opens a minifridge next to the bed and hands you a pouch of blood.
  111. [17:19] <Rapey_Lemons> (roll phr if you'd like to resist your instincts)
  112. [17:20] * Constance helps herself
  113. [17:21] <Rapey_Lemons> The blood doesn't taste good, nor does it taste bad, but you do feel less exhaust as you drink.
  114. [17:21] <Rapey_Lemons> "Your heart stil beats," he says casually, watching you. "You're not completely turned yet. But you'll do for now."
  115. [17:21] <Rapey_Lemons> He stands up and walks to the door, gesturing for you to follow. "Come. We have a war to fight."
  116. [17:22] <Constance> ((Am I in a hospital gown at this point?))
  117. [17:22] <Rapey_Lemons> ((nope, normal clothes))
  118. [17:23] * Constance hops off the bed and patting herself to check that all her personal effects are stil on her
  119. [17:24] <Constance> ((*and pats))
  120. [17:24] <Rapey_Lemons> Yes that are. You were not robbed nor stripped while unconscious.
  121. [17:24] <Rapey_Lemons> they*
  122. [17:27] * Constance follows Stefan
  123. [17:27] <Constance> "I'm a pacifist, you know."
  124. [17:30] <Rapey_Lemons> He stops in his tracks. "What?" he exclaims, surprised again. He turns and stares at you, then lets out a groan and walks out the door, shaking his head. You barely manage to hear him mutter "...more trouble than it was worth..." as the two of you enter the hallway.
  125. [17:30] <Rapey_Lemons> END RP
