[18:01] <~DarkSunDuelist> Today, you're conducting your final exams for the year.
[18:02] <~DarkSunDuelist> You are permitted to exchange messages with your teammates.
[18:02] <~DarkSunDuelist> You will share a grade, so don't fuck it up.
[18:02] * Jasper is trying extremely hard to look confident
[18:03] * Seram is absentmindedly doodling on 'her' scratch paper.
[18:03] <~DarkSunDuelist> (( More to the point, this will be a session used to help exposit the world around you. Most of today's questions will be regarding Legal policies and Magitek. If you don't already know the answer to a question, you are free to make an appropriate Knowledge ability roll. ))
[18:03] * Christopher is shaking like hes ate a bucket of sugar
[18:04] <~DarkSunDuelist> The exam isn't meant to stump you or anything. It's mostly a test of mental facilities and memory retention.
[18:04] <~DarkSunDuelist> While it only counts as 30% of your Exam's grade, if you fail the written portion, you won't be allowed to take the practical.
[18:09] <~DarkSunDuelist> Christopher: The first question already scares you.
[18:10] <~DarkSunDuelist> "Name the country that exports the most milk products."
[18:11] <Christopher> <Hey, Lamb, your short right? Who does the most milk exports?>
[18:12] * Seram shoots a loaded glance at Christopher while trying to remember the answer to such a weird question.
[18:13] * Smutty (Mibbit@ARG-zOmBiE-h3f7tj.bchsia.telus.net) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[18:14] * Christopher wonders why a question about trading has him so spooked, its what he does afterall
[18:14] * JapanBot (Ninja@your.funeral) has joined #RSLV
[18:14] * Nekubot sets mode: +h JapanBot
[18:14] <Seram> &roll 1 d 100 +20
[18:15] <Christopher> $ roll 1 d 100 +60
[18:15] <Seram> $roll 1 d 100 +20
[18:15] <%JapanBot> Seram rolled 70
[18:15] <Christopher> $roll 1 d 100 +60
[18:15] <%JapanBot> Christopher rolled 137
[18:16] <~DarkSunDuelist> The answer is very obviously Trubia.
[18:16] <~DarkSunDuelist> Goats pretty much don't live other places.
[18:17] <~DarkSunDuelist> And nobody's tried milking one of Eden's penguins yet.
[18:17] * Christopher scribbles down Trubia <Trubia you guys, just testin ya...>
[18:18] * Seram scribbles Trubia down as well.
[18:18] <Seram> <Of course it is, back home is the only place that has goats.>
[18:19] <Christopher> <Then why havnt you grown?>
[18:19] <Jasper> <Hey guys, what's the first answer? I never paid attention in geometry>
[18:20] <Christopher> <Just write down Trubia boss, we got ya>
[18:21] <Jasper> <Thanks, and don't mention this to the other team.>
[18:21] <Jasper> <Or anyone really>
[18:21] * Jasper write down Trubia
[18:21] <Christopher> <Long as you keep Seram from killing me after the test, mention what?>
[18:22] <Seram> <He can't talk if he's dead.>
[18:22] <Christopher> <Its the energy drinks fault not mine!!>
[18:22] <Jasper> <I don't think a brick wall could stop an angry Seram, but I'll see what I can do>
[18:23] <~DarkSunDuelist> Jasper: The next question is the most daunting literary question you've ever seen.
[18:24] <~DarkSunDuelist> "Name at least 2 animals in Trubia that intentionally killing can result in death."
[18:25] <Jasper> <What kinds of animals are from trubia?>
[18:31] <Seram> <Goats. Butterflies. Whales. Sharks. Sheep. Gulls. Dolphins. Cats, and Phoenixes.>
[18:32] * Christopher writes down cats an sheep
[18:32] * Seram writes down the entire zodiac.
[18:33] * Jasper goes with whales and sharks
[18:35] <Christopher> <My arm wont quit shaking! Is this how you always feel Seram?>
[18:36] <Seram> <Don't look at me, even /I/ can't handle those energy drinks.>
[18:36] <Christopher> <Oh god, im dead either way arent I.>
[18:37] <Seram> <if your death causes us to fail the written part, I'm going to kill you.>
[18:38] <Christopher> <Yay! Double death!>
[18:39] <Jasper> <Hey! No dying allowed until we've finished the written portion>
[18:39] <~DarkSunDuelist> Seram: ...this question is absurdly out of place.
[18:40] <~DarkSunDuelist> "If you tune a Level 8 Dragon with a Level 4 Warrior, what is the level of the resulting creature?"
[18:40] <~DarkSunDuelist> ...you're not sure if this is relevant to anything. You're free to skip it.
[18:40] <Seram> <...I think the person who wrote this exam has been playing too many card games.>
[18:41] <Christopher> <....Is this a bike question? Wheres Clarent when you need him?>
[18:42] <Jasper> <Good question?>
[18:42] <~DarkSunDuelist> Roll an INT check
[18:42] <Christopher> $roll 1 d 10 +8
[18:42] <%JapanBot> Christopher rolled 10
[18:43] <Seram> $roll 1 d 10 +10
[18:43] <%JapanBot> Seram rolled 11
[18:43] <~DarkSunDuelist> Well, "tuning" indicates that you add the two levels together for the new monster...so wouldn't the answer just be 12?
[18:44] <Jasper> <This sounds like one of the times when they make a seemingly easy question to throw you off>
[18:44] <Seram> <I got nothing for this one.>
[18:44] <Seram> <what about you, Chris?>
[18:44] <Christopher> <Its either 8 or 12, the twins found a few cards over the years and i think i remember them saying you add the levels.>
[18:45] * Christopher uses both hands to write 12 "When is this gonna ware offfffff"
[18:45] <Christopher> <>*
[18:46] * Seram writes down 12.
[18:46] <~DarkSunDuelist> Christopher: Roll Venom Resistance.
[18:46] * Jasper writes twelve
[18:46] <Christopher> $roll 1 d 100 +60
[18:46] <%JapanBot> Christopher rolled 141
[18:47] <~DarkSunDuelist> You get it together enough to ensure you probably aren't dying before this exam's over.
[18:49] <Seram> <next time, read the warning label before drinking anything Clarent reccommends you.>
[18:49] <~DarkSunDuelist> Seram: You scowl at the next question you notice
[18:50] <~DarkSunDuelist> "Name a globally-controlled substance not permitted for minor consumption."
[18:50] * Christopher shakes <Gee... i wonder what that could be.>
[18:52] <Seram> <So, Caffeine and Alcohol, then.>
[18:53] <Christopher> <Its sugar and you know it.>
[18:54] * Christopher writes down sugar a few times across the line
[18:54] * Jasper grins at Seram and writes down "Sugar" along with a little doodle of Seram with X'd out eyes next to the answer
[18:55] <Seram> <So you're saying that it's a good idea to give booze to minors?>
[18:55] <Christopher> <After today i can safely say it cant be any worse.>
[18:55] * Seram writes down Alcohol.
[18:57] <Seram> <and -you- should've read the label. The sugar rush would've already worn off right now, You're still running on the caffeine.>
[18:57] <Christopher> <Never.. having.. one of these again>
[18:58] <~DarkSunDuelist> The last question seems odd.
[18:59] <~DarkSunDuelist> "Name the current year in all 6 Calendars."
[18:59] <Christopher> <I gotta peee! Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?>
[19:01] <Jasper> <dammit, I don't even know what day it is>
[19:02] <Christopher> <Its the rock birdy.. err.. thing?>
[19:03] <Jasper> <rock birdy thing, got it>
[19:03] <Christopher> <Nonon, whats the name for it Seram?>
[19:03] <Seram> <I'm surprised you remember that it's the Stone Phoenix, that's not even the calendar system your country uses.>
[19:04] <Christopher> <Im surprised i remember anything right now.>
[19:06] <Christopher> <but i atleast remember my calendar, 9th fox, not sure what you guys have.>
[19:07] <Seram> $roll 1 d 100 +20
[19:07] <%JapanBot> Seram rolled 73
[19:08] <Christopher> $roll 1 d 100 -20
[19:08] <%JapanBot> Christopher rolled 44
[19:08] <Jasper> <So, stone bird, 9th fox and it should be year 509 back home. 3 outta six ain't bad>
[19:09] <Jasper> $roll 1 d 100 +5
[19:09] <%JapanBot> Jasper rolled 65
[19:09] <Christopher> <Stone phoenix i think she said>
[19:10] <~DarkSunDuelist> According to the Valoran Royal Calendar, it is the year 17,905
[19:11] <~DarkSunDuelist> This is determined by...nobody's sure, actually. The Royal Family just sends out some notices when the year changes.
[19:12] <~DarkSunDuelist> It might have something to do with the sun?
[19:12] <Seram> <I think I remember Clarent saying it was the year 17,905 once."
[19:12] <Seram> *>
[19:13] <Christopher> <So stone phoenix, 9th fox, 509, and 17905? Why the hell dont the higher ups just use one thing?>
[19:13] <~DarkSunDuelist> The year according to Eden's Chronological Calendar is 2991.
[19:13] <~DarkSunDuelist> The Hunter Calendar is much simpler. It's based on how many classes have graduated from GAAH over the years.
[19:14] <~DarkSunDuelist> The hunter calendar has the year at 999.
[19:15] <Seram> <Well, all the hunters go by the number of graduating classes, and they're at 999. I'm actually not sure how Eden does it, but they're at 2991>
[19:16] * Seram writes down everything.
[19:17] <Christopher> <Alrighty, stone phoenix, 9th fox, 509, 17905, 999, and 2991, got all that boss?>
[19:17] * Christopher writes it all down
[19:17] <Jasper> <Are we gonna be the graduating class of 1000? I hope not, they'll make some longass anniversary ceremony celebrating years of kids not not dying>
[19:18] <Jasper> <Oh, yeah. The test, I forgot for a second>
[19:18] <Christopher> <Who cares about some stupid numbers? Are we done yet? I need a bathroommmm!>
[19:18] <Seram> <Maybe it'll be fun?>
[19:21] <~DarkSunDuelist> Your papers are snatched up quickly
[19:21] <~DarkSunDuelist> It seems the written portion is done.
[19:23] * Christopher bolts out of the classroom before hearin any more instructions

[19:39] <Christopher> yar!
[19:41] * Jasper is now known as Danceanon
[19:46] * Kroked is now known as Ericka
[20:08] <Ericka> Christopher: as you rush down the hall, just glad to be free of the damn test, you run into some kind of drama, though you only seem to catch the tail end of it
[20:10] <Ericka> you see a petite girl, and... oh hey, that's the wing girl, the one who killed that Giant flaming slimesaurus with your boss. they seem to be having some kind of... fight? though the Wing girl's pretty passive.
[20:10] <Ericka> The petite girl coughs  "If you're gonna apologize, don't send some guy to do it for you!"
[20:12] <Ericka> A tall young man from behind her puts a hand on her shoulder, trying to calm her down. seriously that dudes gigantic. His attempt seems to fail as she lobs some largish small objects at the wing girl, Ericka you think.
[20:13] <Ericka> Ericka winces,and walks away. the others, who you finally recognise as her team, leave as well
[20:15] * Christopher calls out in a hurried voice "Hey tats! Err.. Ericka! Wait up!"
[20:15] <Ericka> Christopher: roll notice
[20:16] <Christopher> $roll 1 d 100 +70
[20:16] <%JapanBot> Christopher rolled 102
[20:17] <Ericka> you successfully notice the thrown objects from before and avoid slipping on them. you also recognize them as pills
[20:18] * Christopher sweeps down an picks up a few pills and continues heading for Ericka
[20:18] <Christopher> "Wait up will ya?!'
[20:18] <Ericka> she's already out of sight
[20:18] <Ericka> roll track
[20:18] <Christopher> $roll 1 d 100 +40
[20:18] <%JapanBot> Christopher rolled 51
[20:19] <Ericka> you're in poor form
[20:19] <Ericka> ...but this girl is making a mess everywhere she goes
[20:19] <Ericka> its strange,t he farther you follow her from wher eyou saw them, the more of a mess there seems to be
[20:20] <Ericka> things tipped over, dents in things, broken glass
[20:21] * Christopher continues to follow the carnage and starts concentrating just in case
[20:21] <Ericka> You track her out of the school, and down to the beach
[20:21] <Ericka> you finally catch up to her, and when you do she's... curled up in the fetal position, shivering, and crying silently
[20:23] * Christopher slowly walks up to her and keeps a good few feet of distance before speaking "Hey?... What was all that about?"
[20:23] <Ericka> )roll 1d100+26 notice
[20:23] * DemonCrunk --> "Ericka rolls 1d100+26 notice and gets 39."
[20:23] <Ericka> she fails to notice you
[20:25] * Christopher gets alittle closer an clears his throat "You still in there tats?"
[20:26] <Ericka> )roll 1d100+26 notice
[20:26] * DemonCrunk --> "Ericka rolls 1d100+26 notice and gets 126."

[20:26] <Ericka> Christopher: roll a dex or agi check
[20:27] <Christopher> )roll 1d10+7
[20:27] * DemonCrunk --> "Christopher rolls 1d10+7 and gets 12."
[20:27] <Christopher> (agi)
[20:28] <Ericka> )roll 1d10+11
[20:28] * DemonCrunk --> "Ericka rolls 1d10+11 and gets 18."
[20:28] <Ericka> there is suddenly a tazer pressed against your neck
[20:29] <Christopher> (eletricity control to render it useless?)
[20:30] <Ericka> Ericka is in your face, her eye;s are read and her face tear streaked, she loos a mixture of fightened, desperate, and pissed, and the tazer, whoch has not gone off, is very obviously shaking
[20:30] <Ericka> "W-w-w-w-what are you doing here!"
[20:32] * Christopher speaks as slowly as he can with the sugar high still goin an now the adrenelin "Easy there.. I just wanted to see if you were alright. The little one was throwing these at ya right?" Chris slowly pulls out a pill "Shes on your team, whats that all about?"
[20:33] <Ericka> her eye's dart from you to the pill, eye's wide
[20:34] <Ericka> Ericka pulls the trigger
[20:34] <Christopher> "Its not really any of my business, but Boss and the rest of the team still owe you from the fair, just want to know whats goin on an if i can help"
[20:34] <Christopher> (now control)
[20:34] <Ericka> roll for it

[20:35] * DemonCrunk --> "Christopher rolls 1d100+120 and gets 173."
[20:39] <Ericka> youa re able to use your power to control and stop the electricity
[20:40] * Christopher coughs "Now.. as i was saying.. I just want to help.."
[20:40] <Ericka> she panics harder
[20:41] <Christopher> "Just take it easy.. i wont say anything if you dont want me to, but i still want to try."
[20:42] <Ericka> )roll 1d100+60

[20:43] <Christopher> )roll 1d100+60
[20:43] * DemonCrunk --> "Christopher rolls 1d100+60 and gets 107."
[20:43] <Ericka> what is your dominant mood?
[20:43] <Christopher> (does smartass count?)
[20:44] <Ericka> no XD
[20:44] <Christopher> (happy? upbeat? donno)
[20:44] <Ericka> ((not nervous, or confused?))
[20:44] <Christopher> (nope, normaly easy goin happy)
[20:45] <Ericka> ((i dont mean normally i mean right at this moment))
[20:45] <Christopher> (ohhh... concerned, more for her then whats goin on to him)
[20:46] <Ericka> you are suddenly overwhelemed by your concern for her, so much so it blots out any other thoughts or restraints you may have had. your concern for her completly takes over your mind, its almost  apanic youa re so concerned
[20:48] * Christopher drops his guard and gets slightly closer to her "Seriously, whats going on? Your own team picks a fight with you, you wreck half the school and i think part of that cliffside, and now your out here crying on the beach, whats going on?"
[20:50] <Ericka> Ericka seems to be caught off guard, as if this isn't what she was hoping for and backs up, changing her weapon back at a blade and pointing it at you "L-leave me alone! It's not any of your buisness!"
[20:51] <Christopher> "It is my business when you try to turn me into a lightsocket, its also my buisness when the girl we still owe decideds to go on a rampage, we cant repay you if you get expelled you know!"
[20:52] <Ericka> "Shut up! I-I'm just really clumzy!"
[20:53] <Christopher> "A fair ammount of stuff was sliced cleanly in half, thats not clumzy, thats directed rage, just tell me whats going on already."
[20:53] <Ericka> ((no it wasnt))
[20:53] <Ericka> ((i never stated that))
[20:53] <Christopher> (made it up just like the cliffside, redact if ya want)
[20:54] <Ericka> ((yes redact))
[20:58] <Christopher> "Nah this isnt clumziness, I have seen you fight enough to know your not like that, and no one out there is clumzy enough to leave a girl shaped dent in a wall, just tell me whats going on already."
[20:58] <Ericka> Ericka blushes bright red at that "I was... distracted ok!"
[21:00] <Christopher> "Right right, Ill settle on distracted if it makes you happy, now what about? Whats going on with you an your team to get this kind of a reaction?"
[21:00] <Ericka> "I told you, it's NONE, OF. YOU'RE. BUISNESS!" she screams
[21:02] * Christopher just stands there and takes the yellin and clamly says "Ya know, gonna have to be louder then that, my little sisters can break glass with their screams. Im making it my buisness, so please, just talk to me."
[21:04] <Ericka> She seethes for a moment, and and opens her mouth to yell, than closes it again, and just points at the pill in your hand
[21:07] <Christopher> "Pointing doesnt nesscearly help with talking.. and this things huge, why was she throwing her pills at you?"
[21:07] <Ericka> "It's mine"
[21:07] <Christopher> "Ok... why was she throwing one of your pills at you?"
[21:08] <Ericka> "Why do you even care?"
[21:09] <Christopher> "Dad always said, never leave a girl thats crying alone, plus like i said we still owe ya."
[21:12] <Ericka> She stares at you for a long moment before slowly starting to talk "I... have a condition. I take the pills for it. I was hiding it from my team... but Lilly found out, and she got upset"
[21:16] <Christopher> "Well of course she did, teammates gotta look out for one another, they are just concerned for you is all. Granted they could of taken it a bit better, yourself included.. but if ya just go talk to them instead of sittin out here im sure things will get better."
[21:18] <Ericka> "...Maybe, maybe not" she looks down and away "I'm not sure they can forgive me for this."
[21:20] * Christopher takes a seat on the beach an pats the ground next to em "Sure they will, you should see my team. We try to kill each other on a daily basis, but we still get along as friends. Now common, fill me in on all this. Having a third party to talk to normaly helps in these situations."
[21:21] <Ericka> she hesitates for a moment, than awkwardly takes a seat
[21:23] <Ericka> "It;s... I've been keeping it a secret for awhile... from pretty much everyone but my family. I want to be treated normal, I dont want people to worry or be sad or anything. But.. Lilly caught me in the Bathroom, and she must have some kind of medicine training, cause she knew exactly what they were for..."
[21:23] <Ericka> "And it just fell apart fromt here"
[21:26] <Christopher> "So judging from the size of this thing, and the fact you are still a perfectly capable fighter right now, im gonna guess whatever it is these treat will either happen way down the road, or so quickly it that worrying about it wont matter?"
[21:27] <Ericka> "I'm... really not sure. neither are the doctors."
[21:27] <Ericka> "we do know though... It's terminal"
[21:28] <Ericka> "It's going to kill me eventually. Whether its a few years or a few weeks is the uncertainty"
[21:29] * Christopher winces at her words "Ya... thats kinda what i thought. No cure or treatment will work either I take it?"
[21:31] <Ericka> "The pills are the treatment. I take 2 a day... but they're only postponing the inevitable." she sigh downcastedly, and looks out to the ocean horizon
[21:35] * Christopher pats Ericka on the head "Hey, cheer up, for the momment your healthy, realtivly speaking, and in once piece, thats reason enough to keep fighting. And if youd let me, hell even if you dont, id like to try an help."
[21:38] <Ericka> "...I uhm... actually have another thing to admit to."
[21:39] <Christopher> "Im here to listen."
[21:39] <Ericka> "I don't... think i have a lot of time left"
[21:39] * Croaker (Mibbit@ARG-zOmBiE-a76jf3.ct.comcast.net) has joined #RSLV
[21:40] <Christopher> "All the more reason to get started as soon as we can."
[21:40] <Ericka> "My heart, where the problem is... it's been acting up lately, hurting if i get to exctied, im getting short of breath, my heart races at random times, leaving me feeling like a ran a marathon..."
[21:40] * PinocchioBot (PinocchioBot@ARG-zOmBiE-4c2i6h.tx.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
[21:40] <Ericka> she shakes her head
[21:41] * PinocchioBot (PinocchioBot@ARG-zOmBiE-4c2i6h.tx.comcast.net) has joined #RSLV
[21:43] <Ericka> "It's getting worse every day, just by a little but..."
[21:43] <Ericka> "I can feel it"
[21:46] <Christopher> "But you are still here, dont go giving up just yet. Clarents got faimly in the military, and the teams got a nice chunk of cash, we might be able to make somethin happen before its to late. That, or who knows what we will run into in the next few weeks that might help."
[21:48] <Ericka> she silently shakes her head "It's... there's no cure. My condition was pretty rare so... it caught the eye's  of some big wigs, they tried several things but..."
[21:48] <Ericka> she trails off
[21:50] <Christopher> "But the didnt try everything? And who knows why they might come up with, its worth trying atleast."
[21:50] * Christopher continues to gentle pat Ericka on the head
[21:52] <Ericka> she turns and glares at you "Oh /shut/ it. Stop acting like you know better or understand. Are /you/ the one going through this? Are /you/ the one who went over gods know how many fucking tests? are /YOU/ the one who has to die before finishing your dream?!"
[21:52] <Ericka> "I DIDN"T THINK SO!"
[21:56] <Ericka> her face is red, and while her face shows anger, her eye's are full of tears
[21:57] * Christopher gives Ericka a soft smile "Your right, I dont know exactly how you feel, but you are still here, and as long as you are you can continue to try for that dream. You atleast have that much, something my dad, and the way things are going me too, dont have."
[21:58] <Ericka> she seems to deflate like a balloon as soon as you utter the word dad
[21:59] <Ericka> "Dad... huh..."
[21:59] <Ericka> "I.. don't think i can make my dream come true at all."
[22:00] <Christopher> "Sorry bout that, another touchy subject? I came to terms with his death along time ago.. sorry bout that.."
[22:00] <Ericka> "Oh, your dad is... dead?"
[22:01] <Christopher> "Yeah, when i was just a kid."
[22:02] <Ericka> "My dad... he left"
[22:02] <Ericka> "I was so young, I don't even remember him"
[22:02] <Ericka> "But my mom... she raised me on heroic stories about him"
[22:03] <Ericka> "She told me he left to do something very important, but she didnt know what it was."
[22:03] <Ericka> "I wanted more than anything, to be like him, to meet him"
[22:03] <Ericka> "... but, I'm probably just fooling myself, Simon wa spprobably right."
[22:04] <Ericka> "He probably walked out on us, and Mom's just trying to hide it."
[22:04] <Ericka> she tucks her knees close to her chest as she looks tot he sand
[22:06] <Christopher> "He could still be out there, somewhere, right? Find him and ask him yourself. Your mom wouldnt of told you all those great stories if he was the type to just walk out on ya."
[22:07] <Ericka> "Would you want to tell your kid that there father didnt want them or love them?"
[22:07] <Ericka> she snaps in response
[22:10] <Christopher> "Think back real carefully, how did she look when telling you those stories? Like she was tring to make up something to comfort you, or was she happy to retell all those tales to you? My bet was those stories were real."
[22:12] <Ericka> "...I want to believe that too." she says quietly "But...I'm afraid to now. I should just... give it up."

[22:17] * Seram is now known as Frederick
[22:17] <Christopher> "Youve come to far to give up now. Dont want to have all the work you have done so far be in vain, would you? And if the worse does come, then atleast you can say you never gave up."
[22:19] <Ericka> "Maybe... It's hard though, really hard right now, now thta my friends probably hate me too."

[22:20] <Christopher> "They're your team, they might be upset for now, but they dont hate you."
[22:21] <Ericka> "...you sure?" she says meekly. something you realize is pretty ifferent from how you'd seen her before. she'd always seemed headstrong, confident, sure of herself
[22:21] <Ericka> Now... she seemed kind alike a normal girl
[22:24] <Christopher> "Hmm.. what happened to that girl that was all bossy an screamin at me a few minutes ago? She would know her and her team have been through worse then this. She would know that my team is constantly trying to kill each other and yet these are some of the best friends i have ever had. Bonds like that dont break very easy."
[22:25] <Ericka> "I just.. I'm afraid to be alone. I don't... I don;t want to beleft behind."
[22:25] <Ericka> "And when i start thinking about thta happening i cant stop and I get so worrried and..."
[22:26] <Ericka> she gestures "This I guess"
[22:26] <Christopher> "If your so afraid of all that, why did you come out here alone?"
[22:27] <Ericka> "Because Im just as afraid of having friends, just to have to abandon them too."
[22:31] <Christopher> "Little late for that im afraid. The memories you and your team have made, hell, the ones youve left on the rest of us as well, are never gonna go away. So you can stop worrying about you abandoning us, you will be with us long after its your time."
[22:32] <Ericka> Ericka gives a small giggle as she tears up. "I guess if you put it that way..."
[22:32] <Ericka> "You really have  away with words."

[22:36] <Christopher> "Nah, last i checked no more classes or missions to deal with for a while."
[22:38] <Ericka> "You wanna go catch a bite to eat maybe than? I'm not sure I can face my team yet, and... I don't really want to be alone anymore."
[22:39] <Christopher> "Heh, was honestly not expecting that reaction.. was just waitin for that tazer of yours again... But ya know what, sure why not, my treat."
[22:40] <Ericka> she raises her hands and quickly shakes her head "No,no,no! I brought it up" she says hurridly "I'll pay"
