Rosalinda :

Mercedes:
:}

Alloces:
what the hell am i doing with my life

Reis:
´﹏`

Chaz:
Am I important? Who knows.
UND NAO

Azure:
....Hearing Merci's comment, Azure legit wonders what's really going on with Merci. While it's probably not too wise to ask too much, Azure stares at Merci somewhat intensely, to see if he can maybe pick up a dangerous air with his ninja sense. (Rolling a danger sense roll.)

Alloces:
As I was saying - going to see Bernice down on the South Beach, because I think Rosa's there I guess

Alloces:
and that somewhat fits since I know Casey was going there, maybe he's not as bad a dude as I thought and is totally going to rescue Rosa

Azure:
« 1d10+3 = 3 + 3 = 6 » (...Maybe I'm just thinking too much...?)

Rosalinda :
"...Uh...Azure...?"

Azure:
*still in the zone and not hearing Linda*

Mercedes:
Mercedes seems somewhat aloof and carefree fro the moment, but you can detect something slightly worrisome about this whole ordeal...but only barely. "I guess no matter what, at the end of the day I should be thankful I have such wonderful friends to fall back on."

Alloces:
you look like a creep, just staring at her tits like that

Azure:
(...Guess it's nothing too bad I guess...) Azure says, still smiling awkwardly at Merci.

Azure:
*er thinks to himself obv

Rosalinda :
"HEY AZURE, WAKE UP!" Linda snaps her fingers right in front of him.

Azure:
"Bwa-wah? I-I wasn't doing anything!" Azure then realizes he was still here with everyone.
tirkaroKujo:
Rhymedime beach is a slight far-cry from the rest of New Easton, smelling of salt and sand like any ordinary beach. Of course, the place is a bit less populated for now considering the slightly chilly november weather. While walking along the street, taking in whatever sights and sounds you can, you're stopped by a few roughnose-looking individuals cracking their knuckles while asking you for some inquiries.
Alloces: (( asking me for some askings huh ))

Alloces:
"Oh, hello. Nostalgiac, isn't it, this place? I used to come here in my youth quite often, you know." Al casually addresses the gangbangers like it was nothing.

Greg:
"'Ey yo." The man says. "You see a couple a' lanky, ninja-lookin' fellas running around here? There's a whole gang of 'em out there, and we've done lost their tails."

Rosalinda :
"Geezez Azure, I know you're worried, but you don't have to be so creepy about it..."

Greg:
"If you wanna walk this beach safely, it'd be in your best interest to answer honestly. Jesus knows the kind of mayhem those things can cause."

Azure:
"W-what are you talking about? Excuuuuse me for being concerned for a ladies' safety."

Alloces:
Al raises an eyebrow at that, "Ninjas? No, I can't say I've seen any..ninjas on the beach. Heheh..I have a feeling that, long ago, there may have been some around, however."

Mercedes:
Mercedes steps up and casually giggles to herself. "Maybe you just need to calm down, Linda. We could all do more with more concern for one another. Especially during these lovely times."

Alloces:
"Now, then, I've got somethig to ask you. Have you seen a large, blue-haired man with a permanent scowl on his face around?"

Greg:
"Really? Coulda swore a whole buncha them went through here." The big man rubs his chromed dome with a feeling of confusion. "I've seen a few of those, but only one of them that strikes me as obvious is...hmm..." The man rubs his chin, thinking about something

Azure:
"Y-yeah Linda, there's no need to be jealous~."

Rosalinda :
"NOT EVEN IN YOUR DREAMS." Linda attempts to step on Azure's feet so hard...« 1d10+3 = 8 + 3 = 11 » Fast Reflexes

Azure:
« 1d10+4 = 5 + 4 = 9 » Azure attempts to react...

Azure:
ow my feet

Azure:
"O-ow!" Azure screams in pain, while looking at both Reis and Merci. "I-is she always this violent among her friends?"

Reis:
"Heyhey, if anything, you got off easy! At least there hasn't been a big epic battle yet..."

Alloces:
"Yeees? Spit it out, man! Time is of the essence, I'm afraid."

Mercedes:
"Now, now, if we really must do this, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to ask you to stop Linda. Azure here might be in real pain. Aren't you?"

Rosalinda :
"Hehe, i'm only just playing of course. :3"

Azure:
"Y-yeah, coming from Linda, it hurts pretty bad...I'll be fine, but OUCH tho. : |"

Greg:
"Not sure! I'm the one asking the questions here anyway, and I'm a very busy man, so..."

Greg:
The big dude says that with a slight hint of nervousness, but turns the other way in search of these targets of his."But really, big claws, funky masks...don't think they'd be that hard to spot. Damn..." he trails off.

Azure:
"A-anyway, we should be heading home shall we?" Azure proceeds to hop in one feet, almost to attempt to mock Linda.
Azure: (( nooow do we all just go home in the same direction, or do we all split up ))

Alloces:
"The one asking the questions, now, is me. Unless you want me to be a bit more direct about it?"

Mercedes:
"Yes, how about we go home together? Not sure where you quite live though...but I know us three walk in the same direction from here."

Rosalinda :
"Nyah!" Linda says sticking her tongue out at Azure. "Yeah, let's.! But I thought you had to take care of your mom, Azure...?"

Azure:
"Nah, I can spare about half an hour I guess. Dad's home and she's been getting better at least."

Greg:
"Now now fella. I don't wanna start any trouble here...there's some thing I just can't dispatch so easily."

Greg:
*things

Alloces:
"Unfortunately for you, there is nearly nothing I cannot dispatch easily. So, please, if you would simply tell me?"

Mora:
"Ayayayaya..." An equally quizzical woman steps in from the crowd. "I thought I heard trouble, Greg. Is this dude giving you trouble? Should I fix that for you?"

Greg:
"Now now Mora, let's not jump to any absurd conclusions here. I'm just gonna have to politely turn down that question."

Alloces:
"Ah, an in..ehm, a new face. Please, girl, would you tell me if you've seen a large blue-haired man around? Always an unpleasant look on his face. I was told he's gone missing around here, see, and he's a friend of mine!"

Mercedes:
"Great! And is it just me, or is the weather getting a bit chillier...guess the sooth autumn breeze couldn't last forever. Always made these walks much more calming."

Alloces:
Al's not sure he'd consider Casey a FRIEND, but, hey, whatever.

Rosalinda :
Sooo we all head home, but eventually there's a path split. Linda waves the other two goodbye as she walks the rest of the path to talk to with...« 1d3 = 1 »1=Azure, 2=Merci 3= Reis
Rosalinda : (( was hoping for Merci, but that's fate I guess :V ))

Reis:
"Well I guess this is where it splits up. Bye ya'll! Don't rush into things too hard Merci!"

Azure:
"Later girls! I'll see you in gym class tomorrow, beautiful!" Azure says as he waves goodbye.

Rosalinda :
Linda sighs as she waves goodbye too.

Mora:
"Oh, I see! You're a friend of that guy, aren't you? Tell me something further, are you familiar with this other big dude? Goes by the name of Adel Zhen? Well, are ya? Are ya?"

Alloces:
"I'm shocked you know the name. Well, I don't have any reason to lie, honest! So...familiar...yes, you could say I'm 'familiar' with Zhen. What of it?"

Azure:
As Linda and Azure walk home, Azure speaks up, "...Something's going on with Mercedes. I can feel it."

Rosalinda :
"E-eh? What do you mean?"

Azure:
"Might just be a minor thing, but I could sense a...disturbance in the air around Mercedes so to speak."

Rosalinda :
...Linda wasn't sure what to make of this, but Azure isn't the type of guy to lie about these kinds of situations. "...Maybe it's just a minor thing after all tho? Guess we can always find out more tomorrow..."

Rosalinda :
"B-but speaking of which! Why were you staring so intensely at Mercedes in the first place!? I know you're a womanizer, but geezez, you almost seemed obsessed with her!"

Azure:
...This was only a half lie, considering he really WAS wondering what's going on with Mercedes, but..."Come now. She's a beautiful lady. Besides, we're all meeting up on Saturday right? You'll find out more there...~"

Rosalinda :
*sigh* "You're such a weird kid. Anyway, you want to meet with the girl I was talking about? She's at my place right now, and you said you have time, sooo..."

Azure:
"Wynaut." Azure says as he and Linda walk towards Linda's house

Mora:
"Hmm, I see! So this is that kind of deal, huh? Alright, I see here..." the mysterious woman twiddles her hair around. Out from her hair, she plucks out a single knife-shaped hairpin, and looks at it with a strange intent.

Alloces:
"Ah, are you planning to kill me? Please don't, do you know how much inconvenience that would cause all around?"

Toy Soldier:
Suddenly one of the familiar mechanizations looms out of the shadows, and jumps like a wild animal directly at the green-haired woman. "I WON'T LET YOU!" It screams with a prepubescent voice.
Rosalinda : (( now to see if my door's open as usual ))
Rosalinda : (( because god I need I knew a door syste ))
Rosalinda : (( system* ))

Mora:
Mora steps to the side, leaving the strange being to tumble and fall. "That of all things lured you out?"

Sialia:
Sialia hasn't really bothered to keep the door locked. Nor has Sialia bothered to clean up whatever wrappers she left on the floor. "Ack! Uh, you're here already?! Don't come in yeeeet!"

Alloces:
Al jumps in faux fear(but real surprise) as the toy soldiers appear, "Whoa, whoa! Calm down! You? What are you doing here? I assure you, I can handle myself."

Rosalinda :
"Sialia, I'm hommmme annnnd you havent' been cleaning up after yourself have you? -_-"

Toy Soldier 1:
Another Toy Soldier jumps out of position. "Al! I can't believe you're here! There's no time right now, I have to talk this instant!"

Alloces:
"Well, you're doing that now..."

Toy Soldier:
Without giving you much time to snappily respond further, the beings grab you with an iron grip, and dash away, hopefully out of sight of everyone else. "I'm sorry! But we're running out of tiiiiiime!"

Alloces:
"Hey, hey, hey! What's going on, here? I've got business to attend to myself!"

Greg:
"Hmm...I see" The man wonders

Mora:
"Heh. Little does he know he's only made his situation worse. C'mon Greg."

Toy Soldier:
The dolls drag you off to an out-of-the-way alley next to an abandoned building, moving with almost blinding speed. It seems there's nobody else to be found. "Th-this is awful! I can't believe Casey just got...imprisoned like that! Who knows what will happen to him in a matter of hours? I've been trying to rescue him but...but..."

Glenn:
"I-I just can't! At least my memo arrived to the office on time...but it might be too late...*sobs*"

Alloces:
"Casey's captured, too? Guess he wasn't enough by himself."

Sialia:
"Hey, hey! Cleaning up is hard! I told you! Especially when you're as slobby as I am! Uaaaa!" Sialia tries to distract from her shortcomings. "S-so, h-how was your day Linda!{" She asks while still continuing to pick up her mess as fast as she can.

Glenn:
"C-captured too? Aren't you here because..." Glenn shakes his head. "No matter. I'm not too sure where exactly Casey is being held at...but I know it's somewhere around here!"

Rosalinda :
"Eh, it was good. Uh, I brought a friend here to meet you..."

Alloces:
"Well, calm down. I've a feeling I need to go to where he is, anyway. So he's in one of these buildings, you think?"

Rosalinda :
"He's coming with us, along with two other classmates on Saturday, so I thought you might wanna meet him first.."

Sialia:
"Wh-what, you brought ANOTHER person here? Are you trying to kill me- I mean, helllooooo, what's your name?"

Azure:
Azure rushes pass Linda, as she smoothly says, "Why hello there, beautiful. My name's Azure, and I shall be with you and some other ladies this Saturday. Hope that's alright with you~" Azure says as he gently Sialia's hands together.

Rosalinda :
"uhh...that's one way to make a first impression I guess..."

Glenn:
"I know he's in somebody's house, but I'm not sure whom exactly. Really, this is a strange place for him to be kidnapped at. Isn't this supposed to be where all the famous music stars live? Doesn't strike me as a good place for a criminal stronghold..."

Alloces:
"Maybe that's why it's here. It's that, or they're exceedingly dumb. But a house, you say? Easy enough. I'll just have to break into them all."

Sialia:
"...." Sialia's eyes turn into dots as she waves her squiggle mouth. "L-Linda, h-help. He has me in a grasp and I hate it."

Rosalinda :
"Pffthahaha, alright Azure, looks you're not attracting anyone today."

Glenn:
"Fine. We'll dongle around like that as fast as we can. We'll have to reach him eventually...I just hope eventually is soon enough."

Azure:
Azure sighs as he lets go. "Damn, shot down so fast (sad)"

Alloces:
"Oh, I could go and ask those other two. I'm sure, with a bit of persuasion, they will graciously give us the answer."

Sialia:
The girl exhales deeply. "Psshaaaaaa! Oh thank god I thought I was going to die there. Th-that thing's not gonna be around too long, is he? He kinda gives me the creeps..." Sialia asks while clearly ignoring Azure's consciousness.

Glenn:
"Wh-what? That's crazy! Well...you are a lot stronger than I am..."

Rosalinda :
"Pffthahahahaha...it's okay, it's only a classmate. He may be a little dorky, but he wouldn't harm a fly. Anyway, he's gonna come with us on Saturday for big hangout, so yeah."

Glenn:
"They've been pursuing me for a while, so I guess they can't be too hard to find. Guess we'll have to do this the hard way..."

Azure:
"....Can't win them all I guess.

Alloces:
"It would probably be faster, and less likely to get me indicted."

Alloces:
Al retraces his..or rather, Glenn's, steps back to where the unthreatening pansy and that girl with the green hair were previously.

Glenn:
Glenn flollows along with you, but it seems the duo isn't there anymore. "Where did they...no matter. With Toy Soldier's tracking abilities, I can probably follow from here....their scents are still fresh..."

Alloces:
"Oh? A handy ability, that. WOuld you?"

Sialia:
"I was...unaware of this. Anyone ELSE I should get uncomfortably familiar with? Hmm?" Sialia gives a sort of goofy attempt at a scowl, but one she still takes quite seriously.

Alloces:
"Don't fret, I'll handle the combat."

Rosalinda :
"Well, there's two other friends you're going to meet on Saturday, ehehe..." Linda gives a nervous smile. "But honestly, Azure's a nice guy, as dweeby as he is."

Azure:
"I'm really not sure if you're helping my case here, girl..." Azure still kinda depressed.
tirkaroKujo:
sorry bout that, back

Glenn:
Glenn rushes forth around the streets of the beach town, until he finally reaches the tippy top of the surrounding area on a hill. On this hill resides an absolute giant of a house, one you'd have a complete devil of a time climbing up to if you were any less superhuman.

Alloces:
"Well...I likely would have started here anyway. But, no matter, you think they are here?"

Glenn:
"Is...isn't this that one musician's house? This is normally quite off-limits to most people...and I have no idea why they'd hide out in a place like this..." You walk on the fancy walkway, across the grassy knolls, and take a sight of the house straight on. Of course, waiting for you is a man grilling meat on an outdoors BBQ griddle, assisted by the same thug you saw before.

Lazarus:
"Well well well...look who the cat dragged in! I remember you! You're that guy who busted my ribs in back during my own performance at that dusty old club!" The man flips a hearty burger over to its side.

Alloces:
"Why? I don't know either. Musician or not, well, I don't care." Al finishes his reply to Glenn and turns to MURKA, "Hm? Sorry, but that applies to any number of people. A name may spark my memory?"

Lazarus:
"I couldn't sing for a whole month...ran me a bit dry had I not taken a bite out of some loan shark pan-bagnat. I recovered though, ehehe, thanks to some friends of mine. Really, really close friends."

Lazarus:
"I wouldn't blame you for forgetting my name. Name's Lazarus, better known as Lazy Lenny, but for all intents and purposes, Lazarus is the name my dear ol' mamma gave me, so we're usin' that right now."
Alloces: (( brb real quick ))

Sialia:
"Two other huh...so this is something I need to get used to huh? In case it wasn't obvious enough, well...I don't do too well around strangers. Strangers like you, dork."

Azure:
"C-come on! Trying my best here. Was hoping to get along with you, hang out, maybe get each other's numbe-"

Rosalinda :
*Steps on Azure's foot :|*

Azure:
"Owwwww...I mean, yeah, hoping to be friends and get to know one another. Come on, give me a chance~"

Alloces:
"Are we, now? I am known as Al, if you didn't know. It's a bit longer, really, but no one calls me in full. More importantly is what I'm here for." Al turns to Greg and grins, "I think you already know?"

Rosalinda :
*Sigh* "Come on Sialia, he's a good guy. Give him a chance. :P"

Greg:
"Damn, is she really not gonna get back..." Greg stares at the mansion before turning around. "I see you've arrived again on such short notice. Just what are you planning?"

Glenn:
"You bastard! Give Casey back, or I'll rip you to shreds! You better not be so much as laying a hand on him!"

Alloces:
"Ferocious, aren't you? The boy puts it well."

Alloces:
"But I'm here for something else, first and foremost."

Glenn:
Glenn gets into a battle ready position, posing alongside his equally dynamic mannikins. "Casey always told me to try and be as strong as I can! And I won't let those words go to waste! I'm going t- Wh-what? What else could you possibly want?!"

Lazarus:
"Hmm now? That brat aside, lay what you want on me, old friend."

Alloces:
"I'm here for another prisoner you just might be keeping. There's bound to be more than him, huh?"

Sialia:
"Grhhrr....getitng to know eacother....numbers...I know your game. So he's one of THOSE guys, huh? Thinking just because I'm a girl, you can just go all slimeball on me. Just how LOW are your standards anyway?"
Alloces: (( brb again ))

Lazarus:
"Hmm? Oh really? Well I'd hate to break it to you, but...this isn't exactly my house here. No, I'm just here as a special guest. I'm sure some other pardner of mine must be aware of this other unlucky chucklehead though..."

Rosalinda :
Linda holds herself back from laughing as hard as she can...

Azure:
"Oh COME ON, it was just a joke I swear! I mean, er, not that I don't think you're beautiful or anything, but...come on, give me a chance to be your friend! I'm sorry!" Azure says, looking genuinely sad and sincere.

Alloces:
Al turns to look at Big Black Man once more, "Oh? Tell me, would you happen to be that 'pardner?' Do be honest. I'll find out one way or another."

Greg:
"Who, me? Erm..." The big man scratches his chin "I'm just a lowly follower. Of someone else entirely, mind you. I'm of no importance."

Lazarus:
"So, picked a side yet? I guarantee you, I've improved many times over your level since I got rocked at the pit back there. Wanna go again?"

Sialia:
"Heh. I see! So the reality is that you're actually a sad, slobbery dog! Can you do tricks too? Maybe I'll consider it after you do a backflip!"

Rosalinda :
*sigh* "Alright Sialia, fun's over. Leave the kid alone. : |"

Sialia:
"Uuuaaaaa...." Sialia's face goes blue after getting slightly scolded. "Meh, you're right. He probably can't backflip anyway...shame....uh, what was it he wanted again?"

Alloces:
"Picked a side? Hahaha! For me, your little squabble doesn't matter at all. I'm on my own side. But I can't let this boy fight you alone, can I?"

Glenn:
Glenn motions towards the duo. "Start taking this seriously, you bastards! I'll keep getting up no matter how many times it takes, if it means getting Casey back!"

Rosalinda :
"You're undying love and friendship!" Linda clearly makes fun of Azure. "But nah, he just wants to get to know you for the hang out on Saturday."

Rosalinda :
Your* bleh >:V

Sialia:
"Hmph..." Sialia crosses her arms. "Get to know me? My name is Sialia and Linda here is my very bestest friend. I say very bestest because she's really the only friend I have. So stay awaaaaaay..." Sialia leers at Azure with laser beam eyes.

Alloces:
"Now, I'm afraid if you approach me, I'll be unable to hold back. Just tell me where you keep the prisoners, and this will be nice and simple."

Lazarus:
"Nice and simple? It's 1999, buddy boy. Nice and simple just won't cut it. I've beaten down nuisances bigger than you, and it's as clear as the starry night that you won't get lucky today."

Azure:
"Damn this rose has some very sharp thorns." Azure clears his voice before saying, "UHhh, I'm Linda's friend too. I would never do anything to harm her and uh, I'd like to maybe be your friend too~" As smooth as he's trying to be, it's obvious Azure's nervousness around girls is showing.

Greg:
"Hmm. So it's going to be like this, huh?" The assistant seems somewhat hesitant at the thought of battle.

Alloces:
"Hehehe...fine, then. You really want to take me on? I'll accept! But please, don't run away when you get scared!"

Glenn:
"I'll take one myself, you take on the other!" Glenn stomps forth, his mannikins bearing their sharp claws

Lazarus:
"Heh. My pleasure." Lazarus pumps his padded fist.

Azure:
"I'd really like to learn to know you that well, if you give me a chance.~" Azure says with sincerity.

Rosalinda :
"Sialia, he's not going away, till you do. Come on, a good friend of mine is a friend of yours, right?"
Alloces: (( oh wait, I got up last turn didn't I ))
Lazarus: (( getting up is movement, movement occurs first.. ))
Alloces: (( So we just have regular tied init ))
Lazarus: (( oh, figured full defense wouldn't give you the chance ))
Alloces: (( ...good point, I don't think you can move ))
Alloces: (( But I have no idea. And getting up I think takes your whole action, not just movement ))
Alloces: (( If a character Knocks Down his opponent, he may 143 5 choose to move 1 Range towards or away from his opponent. ))
Alloces: (( Well I DIDN'T KNOW THAT ))
Alloces: (( Way to hide that somewhere unintelligible ))
Alloces: (( An opponent with Initiative wishing to attack a character who is still Knocked Down must hold and wait until his opponent stands before attacking again. This is the case even if the combatants have simultaneous Initiative. ))
Alloces: (( so I guess you hold your init however the fuck that one works ))

Alloces: (( with tied init ))
Lazarus: (( so yeah regular tie then, except you used your action ))
Lazarus: (( that's a weird situation ))
Alloces: (( indeed ))

Lazarus:
Lazarus gets back and refocuses himself, doing a swift dance with his legs. "I'll give you a fighting chance here. I thought you were a real hardass, weren't you?"

Lazarus:

Alloces:
"Let me show you just how frightening I can be..." Al rushes forward, marking his papers with the blood from his forehead, and trying to imprint his mark onto his foe. He pours his own life into it, as well...

Azure:
"That's not true. I want to get to know you more and help our whatever problems you have, Miss Sialia. Please, all I ask is that you give me a smile and a chance.~" Azure says, preparing a beautiful flower to give to her.

Rosalinda :
"....I'm not even gonna ask how you got that." : |

Lazarus:

Alloces:
but you aren't yet..not that you get your turn I guess

Sialia:
"Heh, exactly. It's all probably meaningless middle class stuff. Like having your ice cream fall over or watching commercials during recordings!"

Alloces:
"Gehahahaha!" Al reels in delight as he prepares to do a lot worse than kick a few ribs in, "I told you! It could have been nice and simple... I'm not allowed to hold back!"
Alloces: (( that's the turn over, and he doesn't take any more GE damage ))

Azure:
Azure takes a deep breathe and looks as serious as possible. "...When I was a little kid, my sister passed away. She was going to pick me up after school, but she got involved in a hit and run accident. I couldn't...do anything to save her. I was too weak, too small..."

Alloces:
if only we'd left in the Hyper Mode statuses

Azure:
Azure takes another deep breath, as he continues, "My parents couldn't stop crying for weeks. My mom is depressingly sad these days, I have to take care of her everyday, because she's so weak...but my biggest regret? The last time I saw her, I had a little fight with her, and she tried me tell me something. Something important...and I just threw it back in her face...." Azure now looks beyond depressed, almost looks like he's on the verge of tears.

Azure:
"...I have to use the washroom, I'm sorry." Azure says, as he goes to said location.

Lazarus:
Lazarus shakes himself up. "Hmm...looks like someone's had a little training!"

Rosalinda :
"...Azure...."

Alloces:
Al dissolves into sand, appearing over his opponent's head, and surrounds it, forcing them to the ground before remateralizing and following up with crashing, devasting stomp to the spine! Or, well, that's the plan, let's hope it works

Alloces:
Alloces uses 1 Fighting Spirit!

Alloces:
« 1d6+1+1 = 6 + 1 + 1 = 8 » It's a Teleport move so I damn well should be at Range 0

Sialia:
Sialia too takes a deep breath, and could probably cut the awkwardness in the room with a knife. "Well, that sure escalted quickly..." She mutters while sitting back down.

Alloces:
Oh wait I forgot the -1 for the special move not starting the combo, so, that's a 7
Sialia: (( *escalated, my a key is kinda jammed for some reason, expect a ton of typos like that ))

Alloces:

Rosalinda : (( nah take ALL the self damage (D) ))
Lazarus: (( yes that very one ))
Lazarus: (( so is that just fucking 23 damage ))
Alloces: (( no ))
Rosalinda : (( that one Katawa Shoujo song works too ))
Alloces: (( the self-damage was..to Al ))
Alloces: (( because it's self damage ))

Lazarus:
Lazarus loses 17 hit points.
Alloces: (( it also Knocks Down ))
Alloces: (( At least, I don't THINK using a Pursuit move after a Knocks Down one gets them back up ))
Alloces: (( but I guess it might ))

Azure:
After washing his face, Azure walks out, and just goes, "...Hey, I'm back."

Lazarus:
"Kuh..." A splash of blood hurls out of Lazzy's mouth as you step on his spine. "You gotta be bullshittin' me..."

Rosalinda :
"...Azure, I'm so sorry, I didn't know. Yet, I keep making fun of you everyday, and..."

Alloces:
"Gahehehe... Feel honoured! You're the first one to take me on like this and live! Except for the one who ran away!"
Alloces: (( Pretty sure that's the turn over ))

Sialia:
"Hey, I guess..." Sialia rests her pesky chin on her hand. "I just wanted to let you know, in a rare show of compassion from me..."

Sialia:
"Listen, you may be a dork and all, but I know what it's like to have a loved one just go away like that, and have rough times come under you, or worse, everyone you love. Okay, I'm not really the best with words here...but if there's anything I've learned over my short lifetime, it's to not be weak. Don't let despair consume you. If you do, you'll be eaten alive by those without my trademark love and compassion."

Azure:
"Pssh...hey don't worry about it...we're friends." Azure smiles to Linda.

Alloces:
« 1d12+2+1 = 2 + 2 + 1 = 5 » and « 1d12+2 = 10 + 2 = 12 » half of that to me, it was calc'd wrongly before, didnt' take Strength into account

Alloces:
Alloces loses 6 hit points.

Lazarus:
And this is why multitasking in this system is haaard, because I probably could have somehow blocked that if- wait don't you get a penalty if you're knocked down anyway

Alloces:
oh wait, it doesn't take Strenght into account for the Self-damage ,so it should have just been d12+1 for that, but oh well

Lazarus:
Lazarus loses 5 hit points.
Azure: (( just focus on the combat stuff first before doing stuff with me ))
Alloces: (( just do what I do ))
Alloces: (( and cut whatever you're saying, do the combat stuff ))

Lazarus:
"Bluh!" The lighting american goes down, his battered and bloodied face stainining the shining floors. "Alright! I give! Okay!? Oooh, my ribcage..."
Alloces: (( then paste it back in ))
Alloces: (( cut, BTW, is ctrl+X ))
Alloces: (( stainining indeed ))

Azure:
"...Thanks for being understanding Sialia, haha." Azure sticks his hand out for a handshake. "Sorry for being such a dork and not being a better friend to Linda."

Alloces:
"Heehahah! People never take my warning seriously. Now, then, tell me! Where do you keep your captives? Hm, I wonder how Glenn's doing, come to think of it..."

Greg:
"Guh!" Greg gets pinned down by the boy's far more gigantic-looking doll, its claws keeping him held tightly to the pavement.

Glenn:
"Now spit it out, asshole! Where are you keeping him!?"

Rosalinda :
Linda bonks Azure on the head. "W-what are you talking about? As dorky as you are, you're never mean or not understanding or anything. You're a good friend...no matter what!" Linda says smiling.

Alloces:
"Hahahaha! Looks like you had a couple of tricks still left up your sleeve after all, huh? Not bad!"

Sialia:
*Siigh* Sialia returns the handshake. "I'll forgive you...for now. Sorry that I'm more than a little untrusting, but...it's in my nature. I probably wouldn't be alive if I wasn't."

Greg:
"I don't know, okay!? You'll have to ask my boss for that! She's inside the mansion! Now get that thing off me!"

Azure:
"Right, I should probably get going. My mom's probably worried sick, now." Azure says, as he heads towards the door. "It was nice knowing you, Sialia."
Agi has connected.

Rosalinda :
"Wait Azure, how come you never said anything about this before...?"
Agi: (( I'mma just watch because I can I ges ))
Rosalinda : (( DOUBT IT ))

Glenn:
"These 'things' are a representation of my anger...guts...and hardships! Don't play them down like that!" Glenn seems reasonably fired up, but turns an eye towards you. "You took care of the other guy? Let's move, quick..."

Alloces:
The sand falls away from Al as he speaks, "Took care of? Heh...yes, I'd say I took care of him quite handily. You say you truly know nothing?"
Alloces: (( last line was at Lazzy-Boy ))

Lazarus:
*Cough* "Eheh...if you wanna get ahold of what you're looking for, you better ask Mora. Hear it's a real ruckus in there anyway. Careful not to break anything though...the S-man won't like that..."

Alloces:
Healed up!

Alloces:
"Oh, that's all right. He won't like me, anyway."

Azure:
Azure smiles. "Because, I know I can trust you." Azure says before waving goodbye.
Alloces: (( wonder if I should make a REGULAR entrace ))
Alloces: (( n ))
Alloces: (( or a GRAND one ))
Agi: (( how on earth is that a question ))
Agi: (( You know the answer (waiting) ))

Alloces:
Let's do this then

Sialia:
"Hmm..." Sialia hums to herself. "How do I recover from that exactly?"

Alloces:
Gonna have to literal map a bit, but ah well. Al looks around the area, and grins to himself, "Glenn? Get in the car. We're going for a bit of a joyride. After all, we need to make sure they realize we're here, right?"
Alloces: (( speaking of the car ))
Alloces: (( I just realized that same shirt that's on it is hanging about twelve feet in the air suspended by nothing ))

Rosalinda :
"...Trust me, eh?" Linda smiles a little bit, almost blushing a little bit.

Rosalinda :
"Uhh, you didn't eat EVERYTHING in the house did you?" Linda suddenly remembers. >:

Sialia:
"Don't worry, I only most of it. That's not quite -all-, right?"

Sialia:
"Here, have this, uh, I think this is supposed to be tuna or something. It was way in the back of the fridge and kinda smells like grandma, but it's still good!"

Glenn:
"Do you even...have the keys for this thing? Nevermind, I should be able to hotwire this...."

Rosalinda :
*sigh* "What am I going to do with you?" Linda says, as she pets Sialia on the head.
Alloces: (( well, the door's open and the lights are on ))
Alloces: (( the keys need to be in it for the lights to be on ))
Alloces: (( and the token wasn't really necessary (waiting) ))
Alloces: (( it's certainly going to be a BIT of a joyride. ))

Alloces:
"Hehehe..the keys are right here, kid. I feel sorry for whoever's car this is, but I doubt they'll let us in themselves, even if we ask nicely!"

Sialia:
"Unyuuu. My only weakness~." Sialia purrs with a hint of irony in her voice. "But no really, I should have made that more obvious before. I reeeaaaalllly don't like being hit on. It's a miracle I acted as calm about it as I did."

Rosalinda :
"Hehe, Azure may hit on every cute girl he sees, but he knows when to take a hint." Linda says as she drinks her soda.

Glenn:
"Alright, then just put your foot on the gas, and...." Turns out it's one of those really fancy sports cars that go way faster than anyone would ever have any use for outside of special events, so it certainly moves at breakneck speeds.
Alloces: (( oh god is GLENN driving ))
Alloces: (( well that works too ))
Glenn: (( no, it's clearly you, I'm just assuming for you ))

Alloces:
Al goes down the road leading up to the manor for a bit, to enable the car to build up momentum on the way back, then turns around and aims for the double doors of the mansion, at least -trying- not to run over anyone.

Radio:
NOW PLAYING AC/DC - Back in Black http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAgnJDJN4VA

Car:
Well you're pretty awful at that because there were multiple patrons in the halls, but they all somehow manage to miraculously dodge out of the way. Zwoooom! You jet through the halls and corridors of the mansion.

Rosalinda :
"Anyway, I might be going out later to practice, but I'm not sure yet. So be GOOD alright? I'm gonna buy some food on the way home if I go." Linda smiles.
Alloces: (( mostly I just wanted to get INTO the mansion ))

Alloces:
"Well, we could get out now, if you'd like, boy! Difficult to check the rooms in this thing, unfortunately. We're past those giant wooden doors now, at least!"

Glenn:
Glenn hops out of the dented car, and makes a break for wherever he can. "I believe I'm picking up his scent around here...I'd know that scent anywhere!"

Alloces:
"Any others, where he is? That's what I'm concerned about. Casey I trust to be able to take care of himself."

Sialia:
"Awlright, awlright. I'll try and be a good little Sialia, I'm stuffed enough anyway."

Rosalinda :
Linda smiles as she finally takes some rest for till Charlotte phones again.
Rosalinda : (( annnd I should be done for this session now ))

Glenn:
Glenn and his mannikins make a quick sortie through the halls. "I'm sorry but...I really don't pick up much else..."

Alloces:
"How odd..Well, I'll see once we get there. Lead the way, boy."

Pato:
"And just vere do you zink YOU'RE going?" Yells a very audible female voice through the halls. "I'm in ze middle of some very important research, e yez? I zought I'd get some much needed privacy around here, ja?"

Alloces:
"Oh, now, don't let us disturb you! Carry on with your 'research' if you mu---Haha, what are these things?"

Glenn:
The cling CLANG of two robots batter down on both sides of you. "Ckr...we've been caught...what to do, what to do..."

Sentinel:
"STAND DOWN NOW OR RISK BEING ELIMINATED, TARGET #985 AND TARGET #986"

Knifebringer:
"Hey, those mofos! Let's put their heads on a pike!" A group of the mansion owner's lowlife lackeys work their way out of the woodwork too.

Buster:
"These muthafuckas are gonna rue the day they messed with MY crew! Pound their asses in till they have to shit out of a body bag!"

Knifebringer:
"Yeah, better watch out! We even got Barry the Slinger!"

Barry the Slinger:
"Nyeah! Nyeah, I'm gonna sling ya!"

Alloces:
"Haaahh...Glenn, go look for Casey, would you? You must have a good idea of where he is. Once you find the room, come back before entering it, hm? These fools are no match for me alone." Can I, say, make a Property Damage roll to kick in part of the wall before the match starts

Alloces:
so Glenn can get away through there

Glenn:
"Thanks...I need to find Casey as soon as possible, and these guys are surely gonna slow me down..."
Glenn: (( and yeah go ahead ))

Alloces:
« 1d10+6 = 9 + 6 = 15 » at least I still have one Lucky if I get a nat 1

Glenn:
You bust a hole through the walls that goes several walls deep. "Thanks! His scent is getting stronger now!"

Alloces:
Al's leg crashes through the nearby wall, destroying a good portion of it, "Well, there's the door!" He turns to Barry The Slinger and his other adversaries, "Come at me, you don't seem to mind ending up like that!"

Knifebringer:
"Don't even try to sugarcoat it! I eat phonies like you for breakfast!

And so Al turns his attention to the next random thug in line, the aptly-named Knifebringer, going to crush his ribs in.

Alloces:
Alloces uses 1 Fighting Spirit!

Alloces:
« 1d6+1+1+1 = 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 6 » "Hahaha! Sorry, but this is the end for you morons. I always try to warn them, but they never back off."

Knifebringer:
« 1d10 = 9 » "Like I'd go down that easily!"

Knifebringer:
"Barf!"

Alloces:
Al tries to tear into the big robbit with his sand, since, well, that worked well enough on the black dude. This time, he pours some power into it, not underestimating the lug.

Alloces:
Alloces uses 3 Fighting Spirit!

Alloces:
Alloces loses 3 hit points.

Alloces:
« 1d6+1+1+1+3 = 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 3 = 10 » this had BETTER hit

Sentinel:
« 1d10 = 5 » "IT APPEARS TO BE THE ACE OF SPADES"
Alloces: (( I doubt that makes it ))

Sentinel:
it meets it

Sentinel:
meaning fug u
Alloces: (( as...d8, so -2, ID, so -3, and Power Up would probably be another -3 ))
Alloces: (( that, or it would just be a -1, I can't really tell how that would interact ))
Alloces: (( If a Special Move Element would add damage for any reason (such as the Juggle Element or the Power Up Element), this also subtracts one from the Thug’s Life Save. ))
Sentinel: (( ooooh wait ))
Sentinel: (( it's every die size about 1d4 ))
Alloces: (( so I guess RAW it would only be -1 no matter how much power you pump into it ))
Sentinel: (( not 1d6 ))
Sentinel: (( so yeah that'd actually make his life save 4 now ))

Sentinel:
"I BECAME DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO SUCCESS, AND THAT IS NEVER NICE." The machine belts out as its upper body explodes, leaving its legs to wobble about before toppling over.

Alloces:
"Huhahaha! I knew you lunks weren't invincible."

Barry the Slinger:
"I'm gonna sling ya SO HARD for that you won't believe!" Barry slings a rock at you!

Alloces:
Alloces uses 1 Fighting Spirit!

Alloces:
and Evasion cause why not

Barry the Slinger:
« 1d6+2 = 3 + 2 = 5 »

Alloces:
that hits me

Strider Azure:
Strider Azure loses 14 hit points.

Strider Azure:
Healed up!

Barry the Slinger:
« 1d8 = 4 » What did I tell ya?

Alloces:
Alloces loses 4 hit points.

Alloces:
"What was that? I've done more to myself in this fight."

Sentinel 1:
"EVERY DAY I AM EXPOSED TO SUCH MEANINGLESS VIOLENCE. WHAT MESSAGE ARE WE TEACHING THE YOUNGER GENERATION? JUST WHEN WILL IT STOP?" The other robot laments as it barfs a laser at you

Alloces:
Alloces uses 2 Fighting Spirit!

Alloces:
once again Evasion

Sentinel 1:
« 1d6+3 = 1 + 3 = 4 »
Timer falls from 94 to 91!

Alloces:
That is a miss, and I'll take my +2 Accuracy

Alloces:
Al whirls out of the way of the lazah, and locks onto the big robbit! and rolls control

Alloces:
 Initiative (1d6): 3 + 0 = 3 1 FS used! Control (1d8): 8 + 1 = 9
Alloces: (( now is he 1 range or 2 away from me here ))

Barry the Slinger:
The robot is 1 range, while Barry is range 2 because he's perched up on the wall

Alloces:
Al tears his leg through the ground, building up a black energy around it, until it breaks free and slams into the Giant Robo! first off « 1d12+1 = 12 + 1 = 13 » half this to Al

Alloces:
of course

Alloces:
Alloces loses 6 hit points.

Alloces:
Alloces uses 3 Fighting Spirit!

Alloces:
« 1d6+1+3+2 = 6 + 1 + 3 + 2 = 12 » 1 Control, 3 FS, 2 Evasion, I don't think I CAN miss

Alloces:
especially not like that

Alloces:
and that's... d12, then an ID, and 1 STrength

Sentinel 1:
« 1d10 = 7 » "WHY WAS I PROGRAMMED TO FEEL PAIN"

Sentinel 1:
"WHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHY"*explosion*

Alloces:
"I agree. Perhaps that development time should have been spent on making you competent." Al advances on the last rogue standing, and just kicks him through the wall.

Alloces:
I'm at "range 1" here right

Alloces:
Alloces uses 2 Fighting Spirit!

Sentinel 1:
you are indeed

Alloces:
« 1d6+1+2 = 4 + 1 + 2 = 7 »

Barry the Slinger:
« 1d10 = 8 »

Barry the Slinger:
"OY DOUEY THAT SMARTS" The Slinger falls back into his window with stars in his eyes.

Alloces:
"Oh, was that all you had? Hehehe... Now, I wonder if Glenn's found the prisoner hold, yet?"

ThatBaka:
You head thru the path you made, and further into the winding halls of the mansion. You can tell just where to go from the many messy markings Glenn made on his way through.

Alloces:
Healed up!

ThatBaka:
pssst

Alloces:
"Boy doesn't like to keep things subtle, hm? Must take after me." Al follows the markings, wherever they may happen to lead.

ThatBaka:
you know the name of that one FF7 map

ThatBaka:
the one where you killed Jack in
Alloces: (( serach for "sector 7" ))
Alloces: (( oh wait ))
Alloces: (( CargoShipInterior ))
Strider Azure: (( >Jack ))
Strider Azure: (( I uh ))
Alloces: (( is the name of hte map ))

ThatBaka:
After a good, long trek, you finally come accross Glenn, leaving behind a pool of knocked out bodies in his wake. Some more "knocked out" than others. This is probably because right next to him is the target he was looking for.
Tokens dropped onto map 'Cobblestone2Revengeance' by player Thrice (Player)

CargoShipInterior:
well uh here it is

CargoShipInterior:
if you still can't find it

CargoShipInterior:
Assuming this is the one you meant anyhow

CargoShipInterior:
yeah you had like totally a different map in mind

CargoShipInterior:
this had nothing to do with Jack

ThatBaka:
no I just changed my mind this works better

ThatBaka:
that other map looks too small
Alloces: (( that'd be because it was in token form ))

Mora:
"Kuuuh...."

Alloces:
"Hahahaha...Well, where's Casey? Or..." Al looks around the bodies strewn across the area, and, not spotting Rosa, gets confused, "YOu can't mean... I came here for nothing?"

Crimson Wolf Casey:
Casey, in his blood hot form, has currently impaled Mora right in front of a somewhat horrified looking Glenn. "JUST WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM? DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE EVEN THE RIGHT TO FUCK AROUND WITH ME AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT?"

Crimson Wolf Casey:
*impaled with his arm no less
Strider Azure: (( aw shiet ))

Alloces:
"Well, where are they holding her, then---My, oh my, who is this? You know, you can probably let up now. There's no point to continuing a fight once your opponent is disabled."

Mora:
"Keuh...heh..." Mora slightly chuckles as blood trickles down both her mouth and her stomach. "I'm sorry Casey. I should...have been better to you....shouldn't I? I...I deserve this..."

Glenn:
"Al! There you are! I...I'm not sure what's going on, but you have to help me calm Casey down!"

Crimson Wolf Casey:
"DO I LOOK LIKE A FUCKING TOY? YOU'VE CHEWED ON ME FOR THE LAST FUCKING TIME, BITCH."

Alloces:
"Huh? Casey? Wh..." Al gets a good look at the red-haired man, "Hm..he does look similar. You never told me he dyed his hair. And was he always this...vernacularly violent? Or violent, at all. Oh well, if that's what you want, Glenn, I can't leave you hanging. Casey! What do you think you're doing? Put the girl down, getting out of here is much more important than any silly revenge."

Toy Soldier:
Glenn's Toy Soldier's holds the crimson wolf in place, trying to make the voices ring louder.

Glenn:
"Seriously Casey! You can't let it control you! What about your promise!?"

Crimson Wolf Casey:
"Guh..." The crimson wolf could probably easily swat away these toys, but it seems he's finally getting ahold of himself.

Casey:
"I...I...." Casey's red hot temperment begins to cool down. Of course, this doesn't change the fact that he has a girl currently impaled on his arm. "I can't believe this..."
TWILT is disconnected.

Mora:
The bloodied girl smiles. "It's okay Casey. Now please, go. Be free..." Mora trails off, then finally closes her eyes, passing off into a good night.

Alloces:
"Back to normal, are we? Start believing i, whatever it is. It certainly happened. Now, collect yourself, and let's get out of this mansion. Was that the girl who imprisoned you, then?"

Casey:
Mora's body graciously slides off the man's arm. "It's all old news now. Didn't realize people 'loved' me this much. I just might cry..."

Glenn:
"We have to hurry on out of here, Casey! I can't bear to lose you! Who knows who else they've sent after us!"

Alloces:
"Everyone they sent before was pathetic. Anyone else they might set on our trail will be just the same. But what I'm wondering..Glenn, you said you didn't sense any other captives?"

Glenn:
"I'm dearly sorry, but either you've been misled or my tracking senses have failed me. I'm picking up no such sources anywhere."

Alloces:
Al grabs his forehead and stamps his foot, "Argh! So she's not here. It seems I have some explaining to do... There's no way you know, seeing where you are, but Rosa's been taken from her hospital bed. I figured Penguin did it...but if she's not here with you..."

Casey:
"Hmmph. I've seen the inside of this place far more than I need to. Fine, let's go Glenn and...that other moron who's name I can't recall right now."

Glenn:
"R-Rosa? Hospital bed? What do you.."

Casey:
"...huh? You mean Rosa, as in the sister? She finally got to a hospital? Shit, that's what I tried to tell her in the first place..."

Glenn:
"She's been kidnapped from it though? By Penguin? That seems like..."

Alloces:
"Without this moron, you'd still be here. Show me some respect. 'Finally got to a hospital,' you say? Hm...the other nun said something like that, too... And those pains from before... Well! It doens't matter why she was there, but why she's not anymore."

Casey:
"...shit. Shitshitshit, thinking about it again, that doesn't sound good at all... All right, you've piqued my interest ever so slightly, let's get a move on, and..."

Glenn:
"AAH!" Yells Glenn "C-Casey, behind yooooou!" He screams out as high as he can

Alloces:
"What are you yelling about, boy?" Al turns toward the same area.

Casey:
"Hu-?" Casey turns around slightly, only to be engulfed by a giant transparent barrier

Pato:
"Zehehehe! Did you really zink it was zat easy?" A crazy chick phases in through the walls, floating on a small hovering platform.

Pato:
Of course, the more eye catching object in the room is the eventual phasing of the girl's guardian, looking fresh after firing a giant object through its hands.

Alloces:
"What's the point of getting in my way at this moment? Same voice as before...you must have seen what I did to those contraptions and thugs. Why do you stand here no---....ah." Al's taken aback by the giant guardian, and stares slack-jawed at it for a moment.

Powerslave:
"Nnnn" The being's hands cool down, and finally separates its appenages to assess the situation.
Agi: (( oh god, was it that big before ))

Pato:
"Ja, what a moron you are! Zinking you had zings under control for even one moment? Dummheit! Don't make me laugh!"

Glenn:
"You bastard! What did you do to Casey!? Where is he!?"

Alloces:
"I think 'bitch' is the more appropriate term, here. But do tell, where is the man? I'll probably need his help, you know."

Pato:
"Ze feisty vulf, he was a great one, yes? Sadly, he proved of little use to me. So I disassembled 'is body at a near molecular level! Sad way to go, no?"

Glenn:
"!!!" Glenn's eyes go blank for a moment

Alloces:
"Oh, she can't have simply killed him. After all, if it was that easy, she'd do the same to us right now, and that wouldn't be fair!"

Pato:
"Anyway, anyway, no more fooling around like zis. I can't have ALL you puppies running and barking around, can I?"

Alloces:
"Not sure where he's gone, though..."

Pato:
"Non non non! That'd be too much for me! Now, just hold still, get ready for your closeup..."

Glenn:
"...I...I can't..."

Powerslave:
Pato's replicant begins to whirr up, its arms revving and burning with the pistons of a thousand engines.

Alloces:
"Revving...Glenn! Come on! Nothing to do about Casey right now. I don't think that's anything we can handle. This way!" Al goes to grab Glenn's arm and drag him off, out the door.

Glenn:
"I...I don't want to..." Glenn's legs remain unmoving, even though you probably drag him with little difficulty.

Pato:
"At least you know how to stand still. Now, get ready, and say cheeee-" Pato is then immediately punched across the room, blocking whatever access you'd try anyway.

Powerslave:
"NNNNNN!" Her replicant suitably crashes as well.

Alloces:
"...I don't know what compelled you to do that, but get out of my way, before I kick your head through your throat."

Glenn:
"Aahh...what was..."

Pato:
"AAUCH!" Pato rubs her cheek. "Zat wasn't me you moron! Just who would have the sheer nerve to-"

Adel Zhen:
"No, I think it is me who requires forgiveness at this moment." The man himself shows up, appearing right behind a frightened Pato.

Pato:
"Y-you! Vat- how did you get int-" Pato tries to turn around, but is immediately inturrupted from a sneak attack from behind.

Alloces:
"You're kidding me. Zhen, here, of all places? And 'how did you get in?' -I- got in easy enough, you think he can't?"

Petit Zhen:
"Keeeh!" One of Zhen's doppelgangers pops in and throws a chain and sickle directly at Pato's heart.

Pato:
"!!!! NYAAAUGH!!!!"

Adel Zhen:
"Now now, give credit where credit is due. This all couldn't have been possible without some special help."

Alloces:
"You'd kill her without finding out where she took your handyman? How cold of you, Zhen."

Adel Zhen:
"You seem a bit distracted today Pato. What's going on with your mind?"

Glenn:
"Casey...where...Casey...."

Adel Zhen:
"You worry too much. I have that covered." Adel turns around, revealing a man slung over his shoulder.

Casey:
"Uuuggh...."

Alloces:
"Wha--how'd you...no, nevermind. I'm getting out of here. I have more important things to do than bully some half-dead women. Let them tend their wounds."

Adel Zhen:
"I'm not supposed to simply...interrupt like this. However, I know a clear violation when I see one, and I can't afford to simply give up such a...close companion so willy nilly."

Glenn:
"C-CASEY!" Glenn cries with tears in his eyes, rushing up to see if his friend is all right

Adel Zhen:
Still slinging the man over his shoulders, the Zhen man sneers. "I know we haven't gotten off on the best of terms. But believe me. It was for your own good." He gives a short brush of his hair.

Alloces:
"Sorry, I don't think dying would have been all too good for me, as inconsequential as it may have been in the long run."

Adel Zhen:
"Oh you trusting me is far too pie-in-the-sky optimistic even by my standards. (And believe me, I am known for being the brightest star in the city.) Just keep in mind. We are more alike than you'd think at first glance. It's for that reason we should stick together...if only by the thinnest of threads."

Pato:
"Ja...hahaha....do you zink killing me will do anything? I took you for a lowlife...but not zat much of a lowlife! You're far too late! My research shall live on forever!"

Alloces:
"As much as I would like to stay here and chat with this assorted box of enemies here, I'm afraid I have pressing matters to attend to. However...you, little girl(Pato, that is), you seem to be a step up the ladder from those moronic thugs. Tell me, where is your boss miss Penguin keeping the Sister captive?"

Alloces:
-here
Alloces: (( anyhow we should probably end off soon ))

Pato:
"Zister? I know of non such thing! What good would we have to kidnap random clergypeople? Zat is nonsensetalk! Koff!" Pato chucks a bit of blood from her mouth.

Alloces:
(Do they not know...No, best not to assume) "I wouldn't lie to me, were I you. Who else would do something so low?"

Adel Zhen:
"Alright, enough of that Petit. Come, Harley. We've delayed time long enough. We shall see if this timeline holds any further fortunes..."

Petit Zhen:
"Kaakiiiin..." The doppelganger pulls his chain out of the girl, leaving her to drown in a spurt of gushing blood.
Alloces: (( >his ))

Pato:
"Aaah...aahhaahhh.....I I really don't know...hah...would I lie to you like this? Would...would I?"
Alloces: (( i don't think tomoko is a dude ))
Petit Zhen: (( well technically it belongs to Adel by proxy of timeline ownership ))
Alloces: (( mip ))
Petit Zhen: (( but no petit is a girl ))

Alloces:
"I can't see any reason you wouldn't. But fine... I'll have to start my search anew."

Adel Zhen:
"For now, I wish you good luck in whatever endeavor you pursue....you'll need it. Badly."

Alloces:
"Hehehe... Luck of the devil, that's me."

Hanged Harley:
Harley appears from the pockets of reality, and swipes the trio up in her scythe, currently set to 'teleport' mode.

Alloces:
"Huh? You're all going? Oh, great. So I'm alone in this after all..."

Adel Zhen:
"And with that luck, I expect you to easily make it out of this place without me, no? I am a very busy man after all."

Alloces:
"No, I don't think my luck will be getting out of here. I trust that car will do more."

Alloces:
me*

Glenn:
"S-sorry, I just wanna be alone with Casey right now." Glenn stutters out as he becomes enveloped in the teleportation.

Adel Zhen:
"You'll go far with that attitude. Not as far as me, but..."

Pato:
"Gurhk...I'm going to die right now...funny to aktually say zat so casually....do you vanna give me any lazt respects?"
Agi is disconnected.
Alloces: (( are the toy soldiers still there ))
Pato: (( no they are not ))

Alloces:
"Haahh...you can't be serious? I guess I can't ignore someone in this state. (...and moreover, it does well to have friends in low places.) "Fine, rather than me, I would say you have the luck of the devil. Were it any of the others..." Al grabs the girl by the coat, and goes to pluck up the green-haired woman, who may or may not still be alive by this point, "I can at least take you to the hospital...I have business there anyway. But don't blame me for anything that happens afterward."

Pato:
"Eh? I zink you got zis wrong. I'm supposed to be your target, non? You're z'posed to vant me dea- oh, now you're taking Mora too hmm zis is unexpected, do you really zink you can just go ahead and do zis just because- ack!" The scientist it seems has used up her stregnth and passed out.

Alloces:
"Target? I wonder where she got that from. Perhaps Zhen wanted her dead? It's not my concern, I suppose."

ThatBaka:
*fish jumps* it's over

Alloces:
ai tuld u to en it a wile ago

ThatBaka:
