  1. 01[12:00] <~DHGM> 6* Boro scowls, and raches into his backpack for his autobow, intent to make the kill.
  2. 01[12:00] <~DHGM> 06* Grizz reaches for his FUCKHEUG sword.
  3. 01[12:00] <~DHGM> 01<DHGM> The Inquisitor laughs as Boro is grabbed from behind by the suit of armour.
  4. 01[12:00] <~DHGM> 06* Boro grunts as he's grabbed.
  5. 01[12:00] <~DHGM> 06* Meghara whips out her revolver and aims for Boro's head.
  6. 03[12:00] * betamax (betamax@sux-B853C87.manc.cable.ntl.com) has joined #DarkHeresy
  7. 03[12:01] * betamax is now known as Logan
  8. 01[12:01] <~DHGM> Grizz and Meghara fall asleep. Shit sucks.
  9. [12:02] <Boro> (*raches. I am dissapoint in myself.)
  10. 03[12:02] * Graf|KamenRiderKabuto (faggotry@sux-EFFD9871.cpe.ats.mcleodusa.net) has joined #DarkHeresy
  11. 01[12:04] <~DHGM> Boro is grabbed, Syntyche never showed, Grizz and Meghara are asleep, and Logan is... smoking, probably.
  12. 01[12:04] <~DHGM> In the room with the marble floors and crazy brazier flames. You all know the room I am talking about.
  13. [12:04] <Logan> no i put it out, remember?
  14. 01[12:04] <~DHGM> That 'Briefing Room'
  15. [12:04] <Logan> so, are we waiting to see if Grizz and Meg show up?
  16. [12:05] <Boro> (Did anyone even tell Derek we've changed to Mondays?
  17. 01[12:05] <~DHGM> (He was there when I said we were.)
  18. [12:05] <Logan> (Graf you should join #darkheresyooc and #heresyincarnate too)
  19. [12:06] <Boro> (Fine, fine. So, let's get to it then.)
  20. 01[12:06] <~DHGM> Veyda also seems to have fallen asleep. I wonder what happened.
  21. 06[12:07] * Boro slips out of the damned robots metal grip, still going to make the kill on the, well, sleeping target.
  22. 01[12:07] <~DHGM> The suits of armour move in around the sleeping trio, defending them with their spears.
  23. 01[12:08] <~DHGM> Inquisitor: "Enough, Boro."
  24. 01[12:08] <~DHGM> "Sit down."
  25. 06[12:08] * Boro stares at the Inquisitor for a second.
  26. 06[12:08] * Boro sits down.
  27. 01[12:09] <~DHGM> "Fairly despicable of you, to cast aside cameraderie at my command. If I asked you to kill Logan, would you do the same?"
  28. [12:09] <Boro> "Yes."
  29. [12:09] <Boro> "And this surprises you how?"
  30. 01[12:09] <~DHGM> "It does not, but I had hoped for a tad bit more compassion."
  31. 01[12:10] <~DHGM> "After all, what if I have become... compromised? Will you still follow my orders to the letter?"
  32. [12:10] <Boro> "It looks like you've employed the wrong man, then. And if you're compromised, you are still the one with my leash in hand."
  33. 01[12:11] <~DHGM> "I think you still have much to learn, then." He motions to the doorway. "Marina? You may come in."
  34. 01[12:11] <~DHGM> ENTER THE GUN-WHORE
  35. 06[12:11] * Logan smirks at the "much to learn" comment
  36. 06[12:12] * Marina a short black-haired girl walks in, holding an overly ornate rifle.
  37. [12:12] <Boro> "More cattle to the slaughter..?" He looks bemusing at the woman, then to the sleeping acolytes by the table.
  38. 01[12:13] <~DHGM> The Inquisitor nods his head to her, smiling in a most unusual fashion: "So then, the next task is at hand."
  39. 06[12:13] * Marina she is clearly the youngest in the room, but her sharp eyes denote some skill.
  40. 06[12:13] * Logan rolls his eyes
  41. [12:13] <Logan> "Aye, cap'n!"
  42. 06[12:13] * Boro throws the stink-eye at Logan.
  43. 01[12:14] <~DHGM> "There is a planet in the Klario system. Klario II, actually. ...boring name, that... But my intelligence is telling me there is a sect of the Second Imperium active there."
  44. 01[12:14] <~DHGM> "Obviously, this will not do, but there is a further complication."
  45. 06[12:15] * Boro snorts at 'my intelligence'.
  46. 01[12:16] <~DHGM> "They seem to have uncovered a xenos doomsday device, and are planning on how to use it to greatest effect against loyalisy worlds."
  47. 06[12:16] * Logan leans back in his chair, looking completely apathetic
  48. [12:16] <Logan> "Oh."
  49. [12:17] <Logan> "Let me guess: we have to go and be the heroes?"
  50. 01[12:17] <~DHGM> "Of course."
  51. [12:17] <Boro> "I call shotgun."
  52. 01[12:17] <~DHGM> "One thing, though, before you go."
  53. 01[12:17] <~DHGM> He ambles back to his throne, taking his sweet time before seating himself.
  54. 01[12:19] <~DHGM> He presses a button on the throne, and there is a hissing noise from beneath the acolytes' chairs.
  55. 01[12:19] <~DHGM> "I have something to make it all that much more entertaining."
  56. [12:19] <Boro> "Oh, joy. I take the festivities begins now, or are we past that?"
  57. 01[12:19] <~DHGM> "It is always fun here, Boro."
  58. 06[12:19] * Boro takes a deep breath, then reaches for his rebreather kit, also taking his sweet time to apply it.
  59. 06[12:20] * Logan rests his head back
  60. [12:20] <Logan> "Goodnight, sweet prince."
  61. [12:21] <Boro> "Hope you won't miss your stuff."
  62. 06[12:21] * Marina 's head rolls forward and shuts her eyes before she can even reach the melta-cuter on her belt
  63. 01[12:22] <~DHGM> Boro's rebreather starts floating away from his face, the straps on the back coming unhooked. The Inquisitor smiles at him cruelly. "Do not think you are exempt."
  64. [12:23] <Boro> "You know, you could just ask us to not be awake."
  65. 01[12:24] <~DHGM> Everyone asleep? Alright. AWESOME.
  66. 01[12:24] <~DHGM> ---------------------
  67. 01[12:24] <~DHGM> Marina, Logan, and Boro wake up sitting inside of a drop pod.
  68. [12:24] <Logan> I dream of Jeannie
  69. [12:25] <Boro> "Well, this certainly is a new experience for me."
  70. [12:25] <Boro> "That fucker better not have stolen my bloody rebreather."
  71. 06[12:25] * Boro :I's.
  72. [12:25] <Logan> "Where the fuck are we?"
  73. 06[12:25] * Logan checks that his bag is still around
  74. [12:25] <Boro> "It.. Looks like a dark room, Logan."
  75. 06[12:25] * Marina rubs her eyes. "Well it's nice to meet you all."
  76. 01[12:25] <~DHGM> The drop pod is rather dark on the inside, no interior lighting :I.
  77. [12:25] <Boro> "And by the pressure in my ears, we are actually moving."
  78. [12:26] <Logan> "Hello lassie. I'm not in the mood for making acquaintaces, right?"
  79. 01[12:26] <~DHGM> There is the acute sensation of the world returning to a semblance of sanity. That is, the Warp is exited.
  80. 01[12:26] <~DHGM> Everyone still seems to have retained their kit. Nothing is missing: In fact, things seem to have been added.
  81. 01[12:27] <~DHGM> First and foremost are the steel collars around your throats.
  82. 06[12:28] * Boro sighs.
  83. [12:28] <Boro> "I'm the one supposed to put these things on."
  84. 06[12:28] * Boro tugs his collar slightly.
  85. 01[12:28] <~DHGM> It is not too tight, but is firmly secured around Boro's neck.
  86. 01[12:29] <~DHGM> There is a snap, a crackle, and a pop as the pict-screen in the corner turns on. The Inquisitor's face greets you.
  87. 01[12:30] <~DHGM> "Hello, friends."
  88. [12:30] <Logan> "Oh, it's that twat again. Hello"
  89. [12:30] <Boro> "I'm so excited I'm about to die."
  90. 06[12:30] * Boro smiles, but his eyes are filled with hatred.
  91. 01[12:31] <~DHGM> "Possible. Likely. I am reasonably sure you have noticed something new, yes?"
  92. [12:31] <Boro> "Yes, yes, lovely collars."
  93. [12:31] <Boro> "I could take a guess at what they are, but I can't get a good look."
  94. 01[12:32] <~DHGM> "There is more than just your own, Boro."
  95. [12:32] <Boro> "Incase you hadn't noticed, it's a lil' dark in here."
  96. 01[12:34] <~DHGM> "I had noticed."
  97. 01[12:34] <~DHGM> "Well then, let me put your fears to rest. Those are Standard Pattern Mk VI Penal Explosive Collars."
  98. 06[12:35] * Boro mutters "Hoo, 10 points for me.".
  99. 01[12:35] <~DHGM> "However, there is an additional component added to them."
  100. [12:35] <Logan> "Oh great, because these's aren't fucking conspicuous."
  101. [12:35] <Logan> *these
  102. [12:37] <Logan> "Well, what's the additional component, then?"
  103. [12:37] <Boro> "Don't ask, I'm not sure it's a good thing to know."
  104. 06[12:37] * Boro :u's.
  105. [12:38] <Marina> "I think we should know if something would kill us."
  106. 01[12:38] <~DHGM> "If you were aware of such things, you would know that the Mk VI's have a detonatioon trigger added to them, making it only possible to detonate them from within 10 kilometers. These, though... are different."
  107. [12:38] <Boro> "They're explosive collars. That realyl should be enough."
  108. [12:38] <Boro> (*Really)
  109. 01[12:39] <~DHGM> "With a minimal amount of tinkering, Artificer Justus has managed to make these have a different trigger for detonation."
  110. [12:40] <Marina> "Proximity?"
  111. [12:40] <Logan> "Probably long-range vox signals."
  112. 01[12:40] <~DHGM> "Not at all."
  113. [12:41] <Boro> "Or just overwhelming amounts of sillyness."
  114. [12:41] <Boro> "But then again, we'd be dead by now."
  115. [12:41] <Marina> "Well, they won't kill us, not yet. They still want something from us."
  116. 01[12:41] <~DHGM> "They will detonate if you die."
  117. [12:42] <Boro> "Well, that's a bloody relief."
  118. [12:42] <Boro> "I wager a bet the planet is teeming with brain-worms, then?"
  119. [12:42] <Marina> "...or Chaos Cultists"
  120. 01[12:42] <~DHGM> "More specifically, they will detonate if someone ELSE dies. Namely, your comrades."
  121. [12:43] <Boro> "So, if one goes, we all go?"
  122. [12:43] <Boro> "Brilliant!"
  123. [12:43] <Logan> "So, when your attempt to inspire cameraderie failed, you decided to force it one us?"
  124. [12:43] <Logan> "How crude"
  125. [12:44] <Marina> "From the look of things, I'm glad about them. I don't want you psychopaths killing me."
  126. 01[12:44] <~DHGM> "Consider it an exercise, and use this to hone your skills. You still have a task, just.. do not let anyone die."
  127. [12:44] <Boro> "I hate my job."
  128. [12:45] <Logan> "This ain't a job 'till we get payed."
  129. [12:45] <Boro> "I still hate it."
  130. [12:45] <Marina> "Now, its just work."
  131. 01[12:46] <~DHGM> "Payment is a longer life, which I took from you in its entirety the moment I chose you as my acolytes."
  132. [12:46] <Boro> "I'm still feeling a strong hatred towards my job."
  133. [12:46] <Marina> "Thanks." She says sarcastically.
  134. 01[12:50] <~DHGM> "So, you will be landing in the city of Mardenga. Rather... a tad outside of the city."
  135. [12:50] <Logan> Well, we haven't got a fucking choice, have we?"
  136. [12:51] <Marina> "It's not like complaining will help changer her mind."
  137. 01[12:51] <~DHGM> "You always have choices. But there is only one man who can remove those without making them explode, and he is on my ship."
  138. [12:52] <Boro> "So, Inquisitor, anything specific we're supposed to do down there?"
  139. [12:52] <Boro> "I mean, xeno doomsday device is kinda vague."
  140. [12:52] <Marina> "How big is it?"
  141. 01[12:52] <~DHGM> "Find the rebels, find the device, kill the rebels, steal the device."
  142. 01[12:52] <~DHGM> "I have no idea."
  143. [12:53] <Boro> "Okay, can I change jobs now?"
  144. 01[12:53] <~DHGM> "No."
  145. 06[12:53] * Boro :I-face grows ever wider.
  146. 06[12:54] * Marina drums her fingernails on the barrel of her rifle
  147. [12:55] <Boro> Without a care to the others in the cramped pod, Boro checks for his Lho pack.
  148. 01[12:55] <~DHGM> "Is that all you have, then? Grab onto something, then."
  149. 06[12:55] * Boro finds his Lho, lights it, and grabs onto something.
  150. 06[12:56] * Logan clutches his bag with one hand, and grabs a handle with the other
  151. [12:56] <Boro> "If I find out you've lied to me about the contract, Poeryn, I'm going to kill you, despite it's guaranteed to kill me."
  152. 01[12:56] <~DHGM> There is a loud crunch and the sound of screeching metal as the drop pod is released from the clamps.
  153. 01[12:57] <~DHGM> The Inquisitor makes a face at Boro: "You will never know."
  154. 01[12:57] <~DHGM> The screen goes black.
  155. [12:58] <Boro> "Killhimkillhimkillhim." The assassin chants this for a bit, all the while puffing on the Lho.
  156. [12:58] <Marina> "Anyone got any amasec?"
  157. [12:58] <Logan> "Sounds like your list is getting longer, Boro"
  158. [12:59] <Boro> "I've lost count.". He glances at Logan.
  159. [12:59] <Boro> "It's not going to stop me from trying at any rate."
  160. 03[12:59] * Zenthia is now known as Devi
  161. 06[12:59] * Boro glances over at Marina.
  162. [12:59] <Logan> "Well, that's two very, very important people on the list now."
  163. [13:00] <Boro> "Nope. And seeing as we're about in the middle of the atmosphere, I'd think it to be a bad idea to drink right now."
  164. 03[13:00] * Overzealous_Guardsman is now known as Isaac
  165. [13:00] <Logan> "You into obscura? I've got some of that."
  166. [13:00] <Boro> He barks at Logan. "And it'd just be one on it, if you hadn't screwed up."
  167. [13:01] <Logan> "You want to know something?"
  168. [13:01] <Boro> "No. I've had enough lies."
  169. [13:01] <Logan> "You and Lady Solar now have a common goal. How does that make you feel?"
  170. [13:01] <Marina> "Obscura? Weak stuff."
  171. 01[13:01] <~DHGM> Time ticks by, the planet getting closer and closer in the viewport.
  172. 01[13:01] <~DHGM> The drop pod had been launched from some distance, it seems.
  173. [13:02] <Logan> "Lassie, if you're into amasec... you ever tried Mercian Rum?"
  174. [13:02] <Boro> "I'm not so sure she would've been alot of help."
  175. [13:02] <Marina> "Nah."
  176. [13:02] <Marina> "Hard for me to get my hands on even the weakest rotgut."
  177. [13:02] <Boro> "And we're in the middle of a drop, for Emperor's sake, and you're discussing booze?"
  178. [13:02] <Marina> "Seeing as I was too young to drink any back in the Gallian District."
  179. [13:03] <Logan> "Mmm, it's to die for. Well, to kill for, at least. I know I have done a couple of times."
  180. 06[13:03] * Marina scoffs. "Men and their drinks."
  181. [13:03] <Boro> "Women and their snide remarks."
  182. 01[13:03] <~DHGM> Tzeentch laughs at Boro's quip.
  183. [13:04] <Logan> "Ha, you go and talk about shoes or whatever it is you're into"
  184. 06[13:04] * Marina laughs.
  185. [13:04] <Marina> "Not unless the shoes shoot bullets."
  186. 06[13:04] * Boro looks out the viewport.
  187. [13:04] <Boro> "Wow, that's quite the shithole."
  188. 06[13:05] * Logan grins
  189. [13:05] <Boro> (Describe the planet :U)
  190. [13:05] <Logan> "Oh, you're into guns, are you?"
  191. [13:05] <Boro> (Arctic? Desert?)
  192. [13:05] <Marina> "Into?"
  193. [13:05] <Marina> "I AM guns."
  194. 01[13:05] <~DHGM> The planet is rather vibrantly blue, green, and white. The cloudscape covers large portions of it, but the rest of it seems fairly... average, for a planet.
  195. [13:06] <Boro> Boro leans over to Logan; "Hormones."
  196. 06[13:06] * Logan twists his mouth for a moment, and look around the pod
  197. [13:06] <Logan> "Oh, have I got a treat for you!"
  198. 01[13:06] <~DHGM> (Think Earth.)
  199. [13:07] <Boro> (Your originality on stellar objects are baffeling.)
  200. [13:07] <Boro> "Now's not the time, Logie."
  201. [13:07] <Boro> "Keep it in your pants until we make planetfall atleast."
  202. [13:11] <Marina> "I'm not interested buddy."
  203. [13:12] <Logan> "You will be. But Boro's right."
  204. 01[13:12] <~DHGM> The drop pod lands.
  205. [13:13] <Logan> "Oouf~"
  206. 06[13:13] * Marina doesn't even seem to move from the impact.
  207. 06[13:13] * Boro is moved around alot from the impact.
  208. [13:13] <Boro> "Ow."
  209. [13:13] <Marina> "You're not going to vomit on me are you?"
  210. 06[13:14] * Boro glances at Marina.
  211. [13:14] <Marina> "A friend of mine told me a story about drop pods."
  212. [13:14] <Logan> "What, you think I look like I can't handle a little bump"
  213. [13:14] <Logan> *?
  214. 01[13:15] <~DHGM> The door opens.
  215. [13:15] <Logan> "So, how do we get out o- ah, right."
  216. [13:15] <Boro> "Well that's bloody wonderful."
  217. 06[13:15] * Boro steps quickly outside, backpack slung over his shoulder.
  218. 06[13:15] * Logan grabs his back and steps out
  219. 06[13:16] * Marina takes the rear of the group, with her rifle slung over her shoulder
  220. [13:16] <Boro> "Hey, this feels kinda different." He weighs his backpack up and down.
  221. [13:16] <Boro> Putting it down, Boro quickly gets to shifting through it.
  222. [13:16] <Boro> (You said things were added? :U)
  223. 01[13:17] <~DHGM> (I did say that.)
  224. [13:17] <Logan> "That ain't such a bad idea. Gotta keep tabs."
  225. 06[13:17] * Logan also looks through his bag, making sure everything is there.
  226. [13:17] <Logan> "Think we should get kitted up, too?"
  227. 01[13:18] <~DHGM> Inside everyone's bag is a revolver with one round loaded.
  228. [13:18] <Marina> "Nice..."
  229. 06[13:18] * Boro takes it out slowly.
  230. [13:18] <Boro> "The symbolism is lovely."
  231. 06[13:18] * Logan checks his hip holster
  232. 06[13:18] * Boro playfully aims it at Logan.
  233. [13:18] <Boro> "I'm saving it for you."
  234. [13:19] <Logan> "Hmm, looks like i've ended up with an extra revolver, too."
  235. 06[13:19] * Logan pulls out both of his and points them in the air
  236. 06[13:19] * Marina smiles at the new addition to her arsenal.
  237. [13:20] <Boro> (Okay, so describe our surroundings?)
  238. [13:20] <Logan> "We should check out the city before brandishing guns everywhere. Don't know what the people are like."
  239. 06[13:20] * Boro quickly packs it all back together and shoulders it again.
  240. [13:20] <Marina> "Hey watch this!"
  241. 06[13:20] * Boro watches.
  242. 06[13:20] * Marina spins the chamber of the gun.
  243. 06[13:20] * Marina points the gun at her head
  244. 06[13:21] * Marina puts it down
  245. [13:21] <Marina> "Just kidding."
  246. 06[13:21] * Marina checks to see if the gun would have shot her.
  247. [13:22] <Logan> (Gary, describe the place!)
  248. 01[13:22] <~DHGM> The round is one slot clockwise.
  249. [13:22] <Marina> "Heh heh heh."
  250. 01[13:22] <~DHGM> There are trees and a drop pod. The drop pod made a slightl clearing, and the ground is scorched. Far off you can see the lights of a city.
  251. 06[13:23] * Boro flicks out a small compass, and memorizes the needles' relative position to the drop pod.
  252. [13:23] <Boro> "Well, we have a point of origin. Let's make to explorin'."
  253. [13:23] <Marina> "May as well head to the city."
  254. [13:23] <Logan> "Wait a moment."
  255. [13:24] <Logan> "I'm not wanderin' through miles of waste not kitted up. Don't have a fucking clue what's out here."
  256. [13:24] <Boro> (Anything loose in the pod we could pocket? I'm desperate for lootin'! :U)
  257. 01[13:24] <~DHGM> Nothing.
  258. [13:24] <Marina> "I didn't know you were the sensitive type."
  259. [13:24] <Boro> "Me neither. Are you going soft on me, Logie?"
  260. 06[13:26] * Logan opens up his jacket, checking his hellpistol and its hip-mounted charge pack are secure. On the other hip, he checks his autopistol is there, then he checks his revolver on one shoulder holster, and puts the new revolver under the other.
  261. 06[13:26] * Boro has all his gear neatly stored away from prying eyes, save for a few pouches around his belt.
  262. [13:26] <Boro> "You look like you're about to go to town, alright."
  263. 06[13:26] * Logan then pulls from his bag a beautiful, throbbing, best-quality autogun, and puts it on his back. He does the same for a combat shotgun, making sure it is fully loaded first.
  264. 06[13:27] * Logan pulls on a camelioline cloak over himself, and puts on a pair of goggles
  265. [13:27] <Logan> "Alright, I'm ready to set out."
  266. [13:27] <Boro> "You look absolutely ridicilous."
  267. [13:27] <Marina> "Shotguns."
  268. [13:28] <Logan> (No I don't. You can't see any of the pistols. I'm just a guy in a cloak ;_;)
  269. [13:28] <Marina> "Good for orks who don't know how to aim."
  270. [13:28] <Boro> (:U)
  271. [13:28] <Logan> "Oh? Well I've got something else you might like. Look in the bag."
  272. [13:28] <Marina> "Aren't you a little old?"
  273. [13:28] <Boro> "For Emprah's sake, Logan. Get a room."
  274. [13:29] <Logan> "Fine, but damn, you're missing out."
  275. [13:29] <Logan> "Let's get going."
  276. 06[13:29] * Boro starts walking towards the shimmering light of the city.
  277. 06[13:30] * Marina follows, making sure to keep her eyes open for any possible threat.
  278. 06[13:30] * Logan follows on, looking around through the trees, getting used to his goggles
  279. [13:30] <Boro> "So, uh, what are these things?"
  280. 06[13:31] * Boro taps a finger at the trunk of a tree.
  281. [13:31] <Marina> "Trees I think."
  282. [13:31] <Logan> "Some sort of rock?"
  283. [13:31] <Boro> "Tree?"
  284. [13:31] <Marina> "I've seen trees before, but they didn't look anything like these
  285. 01[13:31] <~DHGM> There is nothing of note between the landing site and the edge of the city. Suburban housing appears from out of nowhere, the treeline ending only about 20 meters from the first houses.
  286. 01[13:31] <~DHGM> It is obviously night time.
  287. 06[13:32] * Logan has infra-red goggles on, remember
  288. [13:32] <Marina> "They were pointier, and all green."
  289. [13:32] <Boro> (You are now imagining the Acolytes in your standard American suburb.)
  290. [13:32] <Marina> "And they had barbs, like needles or something."
  291. [13:32] <Boro> "There were no trees back on Volg."
  292. [13:32] <Boro> "We had pits of acid."
  293. 06[13:33] * Boro 's stance drops a bit at the mention of his homeworld.
  294. [13:33] <Marina> "The Gallian Civil War had a battle off of Gunmetal City."
  295. [13:34] <Marina> "People think the City is all together, but there are power struggles any way you look at it."
  296. [13:34] <Boro> "Gunmetal? As in, the producer of quite possibly the handiest grenades in the universe?"
  297. 06[13:34] * Marina points her rifle at Boro.
  298. [13:34] <Marina> "Bang bang."
  299. [13:34] <Marina> "Best guns made by Man."
  300. 06[13:35] * Logan pulls off his goggles and pockets them
  301. [13:35] <Boro> "Huh. I'm actually sad that you're not made out of grenades, because that's just about the only way you could possibly be of any use."
  302. [13:36] <Logan> "Don't wanna look like too much a weirdo. People might think i'm one of them underhivers who live in the dark too much"
  303. [13:36] <Logan> "What're you two on about?"
  304. 06[13:36] * Marina the rifle is more like a sculpture than a weapon. All along the barrel what looks like hands are engraved snaking their way up towards the tip.
  305. [13:37] <Marina> "Stupid Volg hiver, whining about something."
  306. [13:37] <Boro> "Oh, just making friends, Logie."
  307. [13:37] <Boro> "Just making friends."
  308. [13:37] <Marina> "Hurry up then."
  309. 01[13:38] <~DHGM> Depending on where the acolytes are GOING, there are a variety of different places they will end up. According to the earlier compass check, they are on the South side of the city Mardenga.
  310. 06[13:38] * Logan looks around
  311. [13:38] <Logan> "Just habs here. Think we should find something a little more interesting?"
  312. [13:38] <Marina> "Said we were looking for some doomsday device."
  313. [13:39] <Boro> "The doomsday device? I'm not thrilled about the idea to actually track it down."
  314. [13:39] <Boro> "I say we just take our sweet time and enjoy being alive."
  315. 06[13:39] * Boro tugs the collar.
  316. [13:39] <Marina> "How hard can it be to find something that can destroy a planet."
  317. [13:39] <Logan> "First, I'd like two things. A good meal, and a good tailor."
  318. [13:40] <Marina> "Why do you need a tailor?"
  319. [13:40] <Marina> "Shopping for a new dress?"
  320. [13:40] <Logan> "Gang leathers don't look right out in these places."
  321. [13:40] <Boro> "I myself need an artificer." He pats a slightly moist, slightly crusty pouch.
  322. [13:40] <Logan> "Don't look too respectable, you know."
  323. 06[13:41] * Marina 's blue and red gallian uniform should be inconspicuous enough
  324. 06[13:41] * Boro flicks the burnt-out Lho into a nearby bush, unconcerned about the potential fire hazard.
  325. 06[13:41] * Logan 's cloak covers his clothes somewhat, but itself is slightly conspicuous
  326. [13:42] <Logan> "Well, it's getting late, and I got no sleep on the ship. Think we should find somewhere to eat and sleep?"
  327. 01[13:42] <~DHGM> The city's buildings get taller and taller around the party as they venture further north into the iron jungle. The night must be late indeed, for the shadier elements of Mardenga have awoken and walk the streets with impunity.
  328. [13:43] <Boro> (Going to keep an eye out for drug dealers. I'm terribly low on drugs.)
  329. 01[13:43] <~DHGM> The city itself seems pristine, as if each square of rock-crete was freshly dried, and all the buildings washed.
  330. [13:43] <Boro> "Going by the state of this place, I'd reckon we're in the wealthier parts."
  331. [13:44] <Boro> "Think there's anything to break into around here?"
  332. 06[13:44] * Boro smiles at Logan.
  333. [13:45] <Logan> "Probably tons. I ain't in the mood."
  334. [13:45] <Boro> "Wuss."
  335. [13:45] <Marina> "Well, we should ask the drug dealers."
  336. [13:45] <Marina> "They might have heard something sketchy."
  337. [13:45] <Boro> "Excellent idea!" He suddenly brightens up.
  338. [13:46] <Marina> "Not like these punks will sell anything worth your money."
  339. [13:47] <Logan> "Lass, you're far too cynical for a girl of your age."
  340. 06[13:47] * Boro is reminded he is broke.
  341. 02[13:47] * Isaac (Lethalscop@sux-7278EEA2.socal.res.rr.com) Quit (Ping timeout)
  342. 06[13:47] * Marina approaches a bearded drug dealer (if she sees one)
  343. 01[13:48] <~DHGM> Oh hey she finds one without testing anything.
  344. 03[13:48] * Isaac (Lethalscop@sux-7278EEA2.socal.res.rr.com) has joined #DarkHeresy
  345. [13:48] <Marina> (you want me to?)
  346. 06[13:48] * Boro also approaches the bearded dealer!
  347. 01[13:48] <~DHGM> There is a man standing down an alleyway, smoking a lho and wearing a trenchcoat.
  348. 01[13:49] <~DHGM> He has a beard, though. It is long and grey, very ratty.
  349. [13:49] <Marina> "Hey there pal." she says, trying to sound seductive.
  350. [13:49] <Marina> "I was wondering, have you heard anything strange recently?"
  351. [13:49] <Boro> (This is suddenly not creepy at all.)
  352. 06[13:49] * Logan walks by, whistling loudly
  353. [13:49] <Marina> "Anything about... xenos?"
  354. 01[13:49] <~DHGM> He glances up, eyes bleary with some sort of intoxicating substance.
  355. 03[13:49] * Dylan16807 (Dylan@sux-8BF60227.dreamhost.com) has joined #DarkHeresy
  356. 01[13:49] <~DHGM> "Eh?"
  357. 02[13:50] * Isaac (Lethalscop@sux-7278EEA2.socal.res.rr.com) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
  358. 01[13:50] <~DHGM> He takes a step back in surprise.
  359. 01[13:50] <~DHGM> "Xenos?"
  360. [13:50] <Marina> "I herd that some xenos have some nice chems"
  361. [13:50] <Marina> "They only heal their wounds, but they will mess up a man's mind."
  362. 01[13:51] <~DHGM> "Lady... what are you talking about?"
  363. 06[13:51] * Boro looks at the little girl, a largely dissapointed look on his face.
  364. [13:51] <Marina> "If you tell us where I might find some, I'll cut you in on the deal."
  365. 06[13:51] * Logan steps in between them
  366. [13:51] <Logan> "Sorry mate, the kid's off her rockers."
  367. 06[13:51] * Logan flicks a 50 throne note out of his pocket
  368. [13:51] <Logan> "Speakin' o' rockers, you got any?"
  369. 01[13:52] <~DHGM> "What xenos? I... oh. Rockers?"
  370. 01[13:52] <~DHGM> He fumbles around in his coat.
  371. [13:52] <Logan> "Halo. You got halo?"
  372. 01[13:52] <~DHGM> "Sure, I got some Rockers in here... No Halo. That stuff's been goin' up in price."
  373. [13:53] <Logan> "Hmm, I'm from a place very far away, and when I say 'rockers' they might be completely different to when you say 'rockers'. So, what are they?"
  374. 01[13:53] <~DHGM> "Oh? Where you from, boy?"
  375. [13:55] <Marina> "That's none of your business."
  376. [13:55] <Logan> "Just a little hive world, we got evacuated, since then I've just been wandering around. Got any slaught?"
  377. 01[13:56] <~DHGM> "Eh... yeah I have some Slaught."
  378. [13:56] <Marina> "Have you heard anything strange? Anything at all?"
  379. [13:57] <Logan> "I'll have a tubeful. Say, cos I'm new in town an' all, you got any tips? Where's the best place to go? My kid here needs a good drink and some rest, if you know what I mean."
  380. 03[13:57] * Isaac (Lethalscop@sux-7278EEA2.socal.res.rr.com) has joined #DarkHeresy
  381. [13:57] <Boro> "You know girl, you'd look like less of a weirdo if you were specific. Now leave the man alone."
  382. 01[13:57] <~DHGM> "I... I don't know nothin'. Just buy it and run along before the Enforcers show up."
  383. [13:58] <Boro> "Don't worry about the.. Enforcers. We'll be on our way in a moment."
  384. 06[13:58] * Logan shoves the note in the dealer's pocket
  385. 01[13:59] <~DHGM> The man hands Logan a dose of Slaught in a vial.
  386. [13:59] <Logan> "Cheers. Be seein' you."
  387. 01[13:59] <~DHGM> "Anything else?" He seems inpatient.
  388. [13:59] <Logan> "Nah, it's alright."
  389. [13:59] <Boro> "Look mate, you do trades?"
  390. 01[14:00] <~DHGM> "... trades for what?"
  391. 06[14:00] * Logan strolls away. "Lassie, come here."
  392. 06[14:00] * Boro holds up a vial.
  393. [14:00] <Boro> "Slam. Prime stuff."
  394. [14:00] <Boro> "You can test it if you want, but it's not recommended."
  395. [14:00] <Boro> "Trade you for Somna, if you're packing any."
  396. 06[14:00] * Logan curls a finger at Marina
  397. [14:01] <Marina> "What?"
  398. 01[14:01] <~DHGM> "Don't got any Somna. That shit will bring the Enforcers after you faster than..."
  399. 01[14:01] <~DHGM> He cringes visibly.
  400. [14:01] <Boro> "Right. This was fairly useless."
  401. 06[14:02] * Boro pockets the vial again.
  402. 06[14:02] * Boro turns on his heel, leaving the man in the alley.
  403. 06[14:02] * Logan goes around the corner quickly, motioning for the others to follow
  404. 06[14:02] * Marina follows
  405. 06[14:03] * Boro follows aswell! Onwards!
  406. 06[14:03] * Logan slaps Marina when they're round the corner and out of sight
  407. [14:03] <Logan> "You stupid little bitch!"
  408. [14:03] <Marina> "Oi! What the fuck is that for!"
  409. [14:04] <Boro> "Because you're a dumb shithead, that's what."
  410. [14:04] <Boro> "Could you possibly be any more of a risk?"
  411. [14:04] <Logan> (in a mockery of Marina's voice) "Hey mister! Have you heard anything strange? I'm not a cop trying to make you rat out, honest!"
  412. 06[14:04] * Boro laughs.
  413. 06[14:04] * Marina growls
  414. [14:04] <Logan> (still mocking) "Do you know any xenos, mister? Do you make deals with them?"
  415. [14:05] <Marina> "What's the worst he could do?"
  416. 06[14:05] * Boro slaps Marina in the back of the head aswell, if a bit more relaxed than Logan's.
  417. [14:05] <Boro> "Oh, I don't know, shoot us?"
  418. 06[14:05] * Marina , already pissed about being hit once, turns and knees Boro in the groin
  419. [14:05] <Logan> "Nah, that's the easy way out. Worst is turn us over to the arbites, who'd torture us for a few months"
  420. 06[14:06] * Boro easily blocks it with his thigh.
  421. [14:06] <Marina> "Like a drug dealer would ever willingly go near the arbites."
  422. [14:06] <Boro> "I can't think of any reason that dickhead would send a kid with us."
  423. [14:06] <Logan> "When there's a reward out for turning in criminals, 'course he would"
  424. [14:07] <Marina> "Becuase
  425. [14:07] <Marina> "I've probably shot more men in one battle than you have in your entire life!"
  426. [14:07] <Boro> "Oho! Feisty!"
  427. [14:07] <Logan> "Hahahaha."
  428. [14:08] <Marina> "Lets go find the fucking xeno toy."
  429. 06[14:08] * Logan does not sound amused at all.
  430. [14:08] <Marina> "I want to get these collars off so I can kill you both."
  431. [14:08] <Boro> "Please. You couldn't hit a wall if you were inside the building."
  432. [14:09] <Marina> "I can hit myself at this range pal!"
  433. [14:09] <Marina> "And that's good enough."
  434. [14:09] <Boro> "That makes no sense at all."
  435. [14:09] <Marina> "Collars mean anything to you?"
  436. [14:09] <Logan> "It means she doesn't know which is the pointy end."
  437. [14:09] <Boro> "True enough."
  438. [14:10] <Boro> "Oh, how terrified I am of you right now. Hormones and all must be really messing you up. Daddy touch you? Hm?"
  439. 06[14:10] * Boro stops smiling and stops to light another Lho.
  440. 06[14:10] * Marina face turns even redder
  441. [14:10] <Marina> "Lets just go find the damn xenos."
  442. [14:11] <Boro> "Yes, let's ask some more dealers, shall we?"
  443. [14:11] <Boro> "Hmm? Maybe the Arbites next?"
  444. [14:11] <Boro> "Or maybe the gangers?"
  445. [14:11] <Logan> "Hey, xenos probably have an office here!"
  446. [14:11] <Boro> "Maybe an embassy."
  447. [14:11] <Boro> "Xeno's United!"
  448. [14:11] <Logan> "We can just go and ask them. Brilliant!"
  449. [14:11] <Boro> "'We have rights too!' is their slogan."
  450. 06[14:11] * Logan laughs out loud
  451. [14:12] <Devi> (oh god what)
  452. 06[14:12] * Boro blows a large cloud of smoke right into Marina's face.
  453. [14:12] <Marina> "Well we aren't getting anything done standing around!"
  454. [14:12] <Boro> "We're not getting killed because of your stupid shit."
  455. [14:13] <Logan> "Fuck it, let's just go somewhere. Closer to the hub."
  456. 06[14:13] * Boro only grunts in agreement.
  457. [14:13] <Boro> "Let's look for a bar or something. With an age restrictment if possible."
  458. [14:14] <Logan> "Yeah, good idea. One that doesn't care too much about what's in the drink, either."
  459. 06[14:15] * Logan starts walking in the downtown direction
  460. 06[14:15] * Boro follows deftly after, puffing the Lho merrily.
  461. 01[14:17] <~DHGM> The scene gets a little more lively, the buildings still attractive and -new-, but many more diverse groups about, including drunken revelers, street gangs, packs of bored-seeming schola-age youths...
  462. 01[14:18] <~DHGM> The streets were also a bit more crowded with autocycles and vehicles, including the occasional Enforcer squadcar, although they did not seem to keen on doing much about any of the nastier parties outside.
  463. [14:19] <Logan> "This place looks pretty rad, y'know. Sure we can find a nice bar around."
  464. 02[14:19] * Graf|KamenRiderKabuto (faggotry@sux-EFFD9871.cpe.ats.mcleodusa.net) Quit (Quit: 12( www.nnscript.com 12:: NoNameScript 4.22 12:: www.esnation.com 12))
  465. [14:21] <Boro> "Mrr. And probably somewhere to catch a night's sleep."
  466. [14:21] <Boro> "Getting gassed doesn't do all alot, y'know."
  467. 01[14:25] <~DHGM> There are a few bars nearby, both the sump-serving variety and those that are at the top of buildings.
  468. 01[14:25] <~DHGM> Although your style of dress at this time precludes the latter.
  469. [14:26] <Boro> "Logan, you're used to this. Where'll we go?"
  470. [14:26] <Logan> But my size of wallet may not. :D I still have 300thrones
  471. 06[14:27] * Logan looks around for a moment, before pointing out a mid-market pub, cast in a deep red light. "That place looks alright."
  472. [14:28] <Boro> "Then let's see how the night-life here is."
  473. [14:28] <Logan> "Alright then. Lass, try to make yourself look old."
  474. [14:29] <Boro> "Just say 'shit', 'fuck' and 'wanker'. It'll suit you perfectly."
  475. [14:29] <Marina> "Bite me."
  476. [14:30] <Boro> "I don't think you'd like that."
  477. 01[14:30] <~DHGM> Upon reaching one particular club's doorway, the trio are accosted by a trio of bouncers. "Wait, you have to get in line."
  478. 06[14:30] * Boro looks around.
  479. [14:30] <Boro> "There is no line."
  480. 01[14:32] <~DHGM> "Well I guess that means we're closed."
  481. 01[14:32] <~DHGM> Despite obviously not making sense, the sounds of laughter and merry-making from within are... loud,
  482. [14:32] <Logan> "There's plently of people inside."
  483. [14:33] <Boro> "So you're just standing out here in the cold then?"
  484. [14:33] <Boro> "Or is it just that you're too ugly to be let inside?"
  485. [14:33] <Logan> "Oh. OH."
  486. 06[14:33] * Logan drags Boro aside
  487. 01[14:33] <~DHGM> The bouncer eyes Marina. "Well, I think we have one space left open."
  488. 06[14:33] * Boro is dragged aside.
  489. [14:33] <Marina> "Thanks buddy."
  490. 06[14:33] * Logan whispers to Boro
  491. 06[14:33] * Boro whispers back.
  492. 06[14:34] * Marina walks in, giving the grimdark equivalent of the bird to Logan and boro
  493. 06[14:34] * Logan walks back to the bouncers, one hand clearly fiddling in his pocket
  494. [14:35] <Logan> "My pal's a little rude, ain't his fault, he's got bad anger problems. I can... recompensate you for any trouble he might've caused."
  495. 01[14:36] <~DHGM> The bouncer nods: "I think we can get you in, then."
  496. 06[14:36] * Logan hands a 20th note to the bouncer. "For both of us."
  497. 01[14:36] <~DHGM> The two bouncers inside make sure to check weapons.
  498. 06[14:37] * Marina grudgingly hands over her melta-cutter and rifle, but tries to hider her revolver
  499. 06[14:38] * Logan hands over his autogun, shotgun, hellpistol, autopistol, revolvers and sword.
  500. [14:38] <Logan> "I want a receipt."
  501. 06[14:38] * Boro hands the revolver and autobow over without a thought, although making sure to remember which of the bouncers it was handed over to. "I'm having these back."
  502. [14:40] <Marina> "If I don't get these back..." she mumbles
  503. 01[14:41] <~DHGM> Everything is taken except something of Boro's.
  504. 06[14:41] * Boro makes a :3-face in HIS MIND.
  505. 06[14:41] * Logan walks through, grinning to himself, and finds a comfy corner seat
  506. 06[14:43] * Marina starts dancing, improperly, hoping to attract attention. The wrong kind of attention.
  507. 06[14:43] * Boro sits down with Logan, stretching his legs under the table.
  508. [14:44] <Marina> (if there is a dance floor anyway)
  509. [14:44] <Boro> "This is bloody wonderful. I'd never thought we'd get away from the Inquisitor this easily."
  510. [14:45] <Logan> "I hope we can stay here, cos I won't be in the mood for moving around tonight, if you know what I mean."
  511. [14:45] <Logan> "I'm going to get a drink."
  512. [14:45] <Boro> "'Right. I'll, uh, stay here."
  513. 01[14:45] <~DHGM> There is a dance floor.
  514. 06[14:45] * Boro leans back in his seat, quite content.
  515. 06[14:45] * Marina silently hopes that some poor sucker decides to buy her a drink
  516. 06[14:45] * Logan gets up and follows Marina to the dance floor
  517. [14:45] <Logan> "Hey, fancy a drink?"
  518. 06[14:46] * Marina sighs
  519. [14:46] <Marina> "Sure"
  520. [14:46] <Logan> "What do you like?"
  521. [14:46] <Marina> "Tuber Vodka"
  522. [14:46] <Logan> "Straight?"
  523. [14:47] <Marina> "Yep."
  524. [14:47] <Logan> "You're more of a man than i thought."
  525. 06[14:48] * Logan heads up to the bar and tries to catch the eye of the barman/maid
  526. 01[14:50] <~DHGM> The barmaid is a twenty-something girl with blue hair and too many piercings. "What?"
  527. [14:51] <Logan> "Neat vodka and a double throne & throda, please."
  528. 06[14:52] * Logan flashes his trademark charming smile
  529. 01[14:52] <~DHGM> The girl takes a moment to make the drink and slides it over to Logan.
  530. [14:53] <Logan> "Cheers."
  531. 06[14:53] * Boro suddenly materializes behind Logan and snatches it from before him.
  532. [14:53] <Boro> "Thanks, mate."
  533. [14:54] <Logan> "That isn't yours, mate."
  534. [14:54] <Boro> "Sure it is."
  535. 06[14:54] * Boro vanishes into the crowd again.
  536. [14:54] <Logan> "Love, can you make another double T&T?"
  537. 01[14:56] <~DHGM> She cocks her head to the side, smiling. "How're yeh still standin' after teh first one?"
  538. [14:57] <Logan> "Looks like i'm a stronger man than you'd think" ;)
  539. [14:57] <Marina> (protip: someone drugged the first one)
  540. [14:57] <Boro> (:U)
  541. 01[14:59] <~DHGM> "Maybe..."
  542. 01[15:02] <~DHGM> Boro finds the worst-looking person sequestered off in a corner with a few buddies.
  543. 06[15:02] * Boro makes his way through the crowds, drink still in hand.
  544. [15:03] <Boro> Standing infront of their table, he nods to them. "You fellas got a room free here?"
  545. 06[15:04] * Logan lights up a Lho as he waits for the other drink
  546. 01[15:04] <~DHGM> They glare at Boro, making no effort to hide their anger at his intrusion.
  547. 06[15:04] * Marina is still dancing, waiting for her drink, and trying to attract some scumbags
  548. 01[15:05] <~DHGM> Logan finds out the drink has been sitting by him for a little while now, and that he was far too distracted by Marina's lurid dancing.
  549. [15:05] <Boro> "Don't mind if I do.." He sits down on a vacant seat.
  550. [15:05] <Boro> "I need a favour, and I think we can help eachother out."
  551. 01[15:05] <~DHGM> At the same time, Marina has attracted some attention, but only of a few rather FABULOUS types who seem more at home with a dong than a gun.
  552. 06[15:06] * Logan takes both the drinks, and drops the vodka into Marina's hand before sitting down again
  553. 01[15:06] <~DHGM> The men at the table keep glaring at Boro, but one seems to be listening. "You have a minute, chump."
  554. [15:07] <Boro> "I'll take two. I'm certain you'll appreciate it in the long run."
  555. 01[15:07] <~DHGM> No response.
  556. 06[15:08] * Logan finishes his lho quickly, and pulls a vial out of his pocket. He takes the top off it and pours the liquid inside into his drink, mixing it around the little
  557. [15:08] <Logan> He then downs the drink in one go and says "Lovely" before leaning back, waiting for the lightshow
  558. [15:08] <Boro> "I'm new in this city, and there are things I must do here. The problem is, I don't know where. And such.." He takes a small pause. "Fine gentlemen are surely powerful enough to.." Another pause. "Help me in the right direction."
  559. 06[15:08] * Boro motions towards the group.
  560. 06[15:11] * Marina drinks the rough, poor-tasting vodka with a quick gulp, and barely a cough.
  561. [15:11] <Marina> "Can I help you boys?"
  562. 06[15:11] * Boro sips the drink while waiting for a reply.
  563. 01[15:11] <~DHGM> Boro is met with slight interest, although his time is running out.
  564. 01[15:12] <~DHGM> The men dancing with Marina seem interested in her, although it is hard to tell in the mass of limbs and multi-coloured flashing lights.
  565. [15:13] <Boro> "Okay, I'll cut to the chase. I'm sure you're not on the right side of the law. So, I need to talk to someone higher up than you."
  566. 06[15:13] * Logan waggles his fingers in front of his face for a while, then mumbles quietly
  567. [15:13] <Boro> "Trust me, we can work something out."
  568. 06[15:14] * Marina leans closer to one of the men, and asks "I don't know about you, but I like bad boys... Anywhere I could find some?"
  569. 01[15:15] <~DHGM> The man nearest Boro pushes him away. "Get lost, faggot."
  570. 01[15:15] <~DHGM> Marina manages to get pointed towards the table Boro is at.
  571. 06[15:16] * Marina sighs
  572. 06[15:16] * Marina walks over to the table.
  573. [15:16] <Boro> "Okay, assholes. I'll be frank. I need information, and you lowlives are the scab of this town. I'll give you one more chance, or you're missing out on the biggest deal in your petty lives."
  574. 06[15:17] * Logan gets up and staggers across the room, brushing at himself occasionally
  575. 06[15:17] * Logan stops for a moment, staring at the table where Boro is, then heads to the bar
  576. [15:18] <Logan> "Mercian rum... if you ain't got any then another rum will do just don't let them touch it for Throne's sake!"
  577. 01[15:19] <~DHGM> The bargirl cocks her head to the side quizzically. "What're yeh on 'bout, Sir?"
  578. [15:19] <Isaac> (in during Sydonia)
  579. 01[15:19] <~DHGM> (Finally.)
  580. 06[15:19] * Marina tries to determine which of the men is the leader of the group
  581. 01[15:20] <~DHGM> The man who pushed Boro stands, flashing the handle of an autopistol.
  582. [15:20] <Logan> "Y'know, RUM, made from mole-arses or summat, I dunno."
  583. 06[15:21] * Boro ignores the man, staring intently at the man he had originally spotted.
  584. 01[15:21] <~DHGM> The leader of the ugly brigade just kinda sighs. "Friend," he says condescendingly, "You have a lot of balls walking in here like that. I give you credit."
  585. 01[15:22] <~DHGM> "But you best leave now before somethin' nasty happens to you."
  586. 01[15:22] <~DHGM> He then eyes Marina as she gets closer, whistling devilishly. "Well what have we here?"
  587. 06[15:23] * Marina bites her tongue to stop any number of snide comments
  588. 06[15:23] * Marina she puts on a seductive smile and says "Probably out of your price range pal."
  589. 06[15:23] * Boro glances over his shoulder at the girl, sneering.
  590. 01[15:24] <~DHGM> "Oh I bet we can come to some agreement."
  591. [15:24] <Marina> "Oh?"
  592. 01[15:24] <~DHGM> He smiles brilliantly, somehow his teeth are actually clean.
  593. [15:24] <Marina> "You look like a man who knows things."
  594. 06[15:24] * Boro mutters 'Maggots.' under his breath.
  595. [15:24] <Marina> "Important things."
  596. 01[15:24] <~DHGM> "I may."
  597. [15:24] <Marina> "Prove me right, and I may just head out back with you."
  598. 01[15:25] <~DHGM> "What does a girl like you need, then?" He smiles again.
  599. [15:25] <Marina> "I like to see things break"
  600. [15:25] <Marina> "The bigger the better."
  601. 01[15:25] <~DHGM> "Oh, a demo-girl?"
  602. [15:26] <Marina> "You could say that."
  603. 06[15:26] * Logan grabs what he assumes is his rum, and stares deep into it
  604. 06[15:27] * Boro leans back into his seat, letting the girl have her show.
  605. 06[15:27] * Marina fakes it nicely, biting her thumb, and faking a look of appetite.
  606. 01[15:27] <~DHGM> The rum seems clean, hearty, and...
  607. 01[15:27] <~DHGM> What is that fragrant aroma?
  608. 01[15:27] <~DHGM> Could it be...?
  609. 01[15:27] <~DHGM> IS IT?
  610. 01[15:27] <~DHGM> MERCIAN RUM?
  611. [15:28] <Boro> (It's actually sperm.)
  612. 01[15:28] <~DHGM> The bargirl sidles up beside Logan, at least as close as the counter permits. "I thin' tha's teh stuff."
  613. 06[15:28] * Logan reaches out to grab the barmaid and vaguely attempts to hug her
  614. 01[15:29] <~DHGM> She makes a muffled ':o' as she is hugged.
  615. [15:29] <Logan> "Oh, sweet Emperor on the Golden Throne so high! Blessed be the plantations and distilleries of Mercia III Prime!"
  616. 06[15:30] * Logan babbles about the rum-making process for a while
  617. 01[15:30] <~DHGM> She nods, incredibly interested.
  618. 06[15:31] * Marina slides herself next to the boss man. "Come on buddy... I know you've got something to hide."
  619. 01[15:32] <~DHGM> "We all have something to hide, demo-tan."
  620. 06[15:32] * Logan leaves a tiny drop of rum in his glass and walks up to Boro, oblivious to the tension at the table
  621. [15:33] <Logan> "Drink this. Taste it now before they get it."
  622. 06[15:33] * Boro takes the glass, and swish it around.
  623. 06[15:34] * Boro quickly gulps it down.
  624. [15:34] <Marina> "I've got a secret for you pal..."
  625. 06[15:34] * Boro shudders for a second.
  626. 01[15:37] <~DHGM> "What do you have to hide, girl?"
  627. [15:37] <Marina> "I've never done it with a guy before you know... and I'm only sixteen..."
  628. [15:37] <Logan> "You like it, yeah? Best drink in the whole fucking galaxy. Budge over, i need to sit down ok?"
  629. [15:37] <Devi> (Oh boy. So what you're saying is she's a boring lay because she doesn't know what to do?)
  630. 01[15:37] <~DHGM> "You think that has stopped me before? It makes it more... memorable for us both."
  631. 06[15:38] * Boro shuffles over, giving Logan some room.
  632. [15:38] <Marina> "So go ahead, it's your turn to tell me something secret"
  633. 06[15:38] * Logan brushes his arms rapidly for a moment, before slumping down on the chair
  634. [15:39] <Logan> "Who're these guys with the noses?"
  635. 06[15:39] * Boro leans over to Logan and whispers something.
  636. 06[15:39] * Marina reaches towards his waistband (and his autopistol)
  637. [15:39] <Marina> "Please?"
  638. 01[15:39] <~DHGM> "Ah... well then let's get another round of drinks first."
  639. 01[15:39] <~DHGM> The man with the autopistol nods and gets up, heading to the bar.
  640. 01[15:40] <~DHGM> "A secrets game, eh? Well... when I was fourteen, I had my first girl. She was a few years older than me, and had a mean right hook. But Gredd held her after we got her cornered, and that was that."
  641. [15:41] <Logan> "Sangy, his nose is the biggest of 'em all! Wonder if the lass'll get lost up there."
  642. [15:41] <Boro> "She's about to get it alright. And I'm not helping."
  643. 06[15:42] * Logan suddenly grabs Boro
  644. [15:42] <Logan> "We're the only people here!"
  645. [15:42] <Boro> "I hate that girl. So much."
  646. 06[15:43] * Boro takes a gulp of the drink on the table.
  647. [15:43] <Boro> "And you're high."
  648. [15:43] <Logan> "She isn't real! It's just you and me!"
  649. 06[15:43] * Boro glances at Logan.
  650. [15:43] <Boro> "Yeah. You and me. Woop."
  651. [15:44] <Logan> "Spiders ain't really real, it don't mean they can't hurt you. They can still tangle you up."
  652. 06[15:44] * Logan grabs Boro's cheek with one hand
  653. [15:44] <Marina> "Oh, you like it rough eh? Well, one time, when I was twelve, I stabbed a boy in the lower hive, just because he called me a nasty name..." (lie)
  654. [15:45] <Marina> "Your turn."
  655. [15:45] <Logan> "Just don't look at them or let them touch you with their fangs."
  656. [15:45] <Devi> (ROLL DECIEVE BITCH)
  657. 06[15:45] * Boro slaps Logan's hand away.
  658. 06[15:45] * Logan loses interest in Boro and looks around, brushing himself occasionally

  666. Session Ident: #DarkHeresy
  667. 03[15:46] * Now talking in #DarkHeresy
  668. 03[15:46] * Topic is ''
  669. 03[15:46] * Set by UboaServ on Fri Jun 19 09:42:08
  670. [15:46] <Marina> :I
  671. 06[15:46] * Marina can tell from the look on his face, that he isn't buying it.
  672. 01[15:47] <DHGM> "Ehh... try again, demo-tan."
  673. 06[15:47] * Marina hopes that she doesn't have to resort to "that"
  674. [15:48] <Devi> (Do it.)
  675. [15:49] <Marina> "When I was younger I was in a battle with the Gallian Militia, and I shot forty men in thirty minutes"
  676. [15:49] <Marina> "Now don't tell me you can top that little boy."
  677. 01[15:50] <DHGM> "I once robbed a bank and stole half a million thrones."
  678. [15:50] <Logan> (singing) "I decree today that life is simply taking and not giving, Cadia's mine! It owes me a living!"
  679. [15:51] <Marina> "I have a nasty night dust habit."
  680. [15:51] <Logan> (singing) "But ask me why and I'll spit in your eye! Oh, and me why and I'll spit in your eye!"
  681. [15:52] <Marina> "Strongest chem you'll ever find."
  682. 01[15:52] <DHGM> "I run the local chem businesses."
  683. 06[15:52] * Boro sits all alone on his seat. So ronery..
  684. [15:52] <Marina> "Got anything stronger than night dust?"
  685. 06[15:53] * Boro whisks the thought away and gulps the rest of his drink down.
  686. [15:53] <Logan> "This isn't a good mix, at all."
  687. 01[15:54] <DHGM> "I do, in fact."
  688. [15:54] <Marina> "Oh?"
  689. 06[15:54] * Logan slumps down on the table
  690. 01[15:54] <DHGM> "But I think you can wait until after. Wouldn't want to spoil your first time."
  691. 06[15:56] * Marina is starting to sweat
  692. [15:56] <Marina> "Let's head out back."
  693. [15:56] <Marina> "Unless you have anything more... private?"
  694. 06[15:56] * Boro whisks away out of the club, bored of being so ronery.
  695. 01[15:56] <DHGM> The man smiles, and gestures to two of the others.
  696. 06[15:57] * Marina motions to the other two men, and hopes to the emperor that they decide to get their weapons and fucking follow her!
  697. 01[15:58] <DHGM> (That is four hours. Shall we meet again next Monday?)
  698. [15:58] <Marina> NO)
  699. 06[15:58] * Boro makes sure to get his gear from the bouncers, then proceeds outside. Finding a nice alley, he nimbly climbs up, and then he waits.
  700. [15:58] <Marina> (I want this fucker dead NOW)
  701. [15:59] <Marina> (I got all damn day)
  702. [15:59] <Boro> (I've got all night. :3)
  703. [15:59] <Boro> (Time to make up for all those lol-i-disapeeer-stunts you've pulled, Gary-chan.)
  704. 01[16:00] <DHGM> Eventually reaching the backdoor and exiting into the alleyway, the leader and his two cohorts surround Marina, making various lewd comments.
  705. 06[16:00] * Marina reaches into the mans waistband ever-so-slightly, only to get a good idea of the gun's location
  706. 06[16:02] * Logan notices that Boro has gone, then bolts to the door, demanding his weapons back
  707. 06[16:02] * Marina cringes at the slimy man, but gets a good grip on the autopistol
  708. [16:02] <Marina> "So are you going to tell me your big secret now buddy?"
  709. 01[16:02] <DHGM> "I said it can wait. But this can't."
  710. [16:03] <Marina> "That'll really get me going you know..."
  711. 01[16:03] <DHGM> The other men chuckle, the leader unbuckling his belt.
  712. 06[16:04] * Logan gets his weapons and stumbles outside, staring around at the street
  713. [16:04] <Marina> "I'm really not into more than one at a time you know..."
  714. [16:04] <Marina> "Tell your little lackeys to fuck off."
  715. 01[16:04] <DHGM> "How do you know what you like? You said it was your first time."
  716. [16:04] <Marina> "I've got a good feeling about it."
  717. 01[16:05] <DHGM> "Well, think of them as bodyguards then. They won't let anything happen to me and you..."
  718. [16:05] <Marina> "I can take care of myself you know..."
  719. [16:08] <Boro> Out of nowhere, there is a sickening thud as the solid bolt hits the back of the leaders head, his hands suddenly having stopped unbuckeling his belt.
  720. 06[16:08] * Marina at hearing Boro's shot, draws the pistol, and uses the confusion of the lackeys to avert any suspicion from herself.
  721. [16:08] <Boro> (Bolt as in the arrow, not a bolt-bolt.)
  722. [16:08] <Marina> "Oh my God help!"
  723. 01[16:09] <DHGM> In a splatter of skin and teeth, the quarrel removes most of the gang leader's face.
  724. 06[16:09] * Marina shoots one of the men when their backs are turned toward Boro's position
  725. 06[16:09] * Logan hears the gunshot
  726. 06[16:10] * Logan cocks his own shotgun, and wanders around the corner
  727. 01[16:11] <DHGM> You see one man dead-ish, one man getting shot in the back, and one man spraying Marina with lead.
  728. 01[16:16] <DHGM> The ganger is hit multiple times at point-blank, jerking back with the force of the blows until he collapses to the ground, blood spewing from the rent veins and organs.
  729. 03[16:19] * DHGM is now known as Gary_Eraklin
  730. 03[16:19] * Gary_Eraklin is now known as DHGM
  731. 01[16:22] <DHGM> The last guard doubles over, the quarrels punching into him and laying him out on the alleyway pavement.
  732. [16:22] <Marina> "Dammit!"
  733. 06[16:22] * Marina checks to see if the leader is alive
  734. 06[16:23] * Boro slowly descends from the rooftop by his drop harness, autobow still at the ready.
  735. 06[16:23] * Boro quickly rushes over to the girl and the leader.
  736. 01[16:23] <DHGM> The leader is still alive, but he is moving slowly and breathing heavily.
  737. [16:24] <Boro> "That was incredibly stupid of you, you know."
  738. [16:24] <Marina> "You're the one who fucking killed him!"
  739. 06[16:24] * Boro kicks the autogun away from the dead ganger.
  740. [16:24] <Boro> "He's still squirming."
  741. 01[16:24] <DHGM> The man breathes his final breath.
  742. [16:24] <Boro> "Now he is not."
  743. [16:24] <Marina> "FUCK"
  744. 06[16:24] * Boro curses.
  745. [16:24] <Boro> "First 32c, and now this asshole."
  746. 06[16:25] * Boro kicks the corpse.
  747. [16:25] <Marina> "All that was for nothing!"
  748. [16:25] <Boro> "Eh, it's not like it's the worst that could happen."
  749. 06[16:25] * Boro points at the weaponry.
  750. [16:25] <Marina> "I felt him up for God's sake!"
  751. [16:25] <Boro> "Not my loss."
  752. [16:25] <Marina> "I need to wash my hand right now!
  753. [16:26] <Marina> "I mean, he couldn't possibly have washed in the past few days!"
  754. 06[16:26] * Boro quickly pushes Marina away, aiming his autobow at the door.
  755. [16:26] <Boro> "Get down, girl!"
  756. 06[16:26] * Logan runs into the (alley? street?) screaming incomprehensibly
  757. 01[16:26] <DHGM> The back door bursts open again, the remaining three gangers rushing out with their pistols ready.
  758. 06[16:26] * Marina tries to take the fall gracefully
  759. 06[16:31] * Marina hides the autopistol under herself, and tries to look like an innocent victim
  760. [16:34] <Marina> "Don't shoot me!" Tries to sound as pathetic and weak as possible
  761. 01[16:38] <DHGM> The same cry is echoed outside on the street as Logan blasts a nameless and now faceless and torsoless frat-boy into a crimson paste/mist.
  762. 06[16:38] * Logan sees something - one of them, clearly in front of him, and shoots it
  763. 06[16:40] * Boro can SEE the bullets. He DODGES the bullets! Have at you!
  764. [16:41] <Marina> "Run!" She shouts. "The assassins are too tough!" She acts like she is calling the thugs, but is really wanting to contact her team
  765. [16:42] <Marina> "Dammit run! They killed the others! and they said more are on the way!"
  766. 01[16:43] <DHGM> The gangers in the doorway begin coughing and falling over in agony as the choke-gas... chokes them.
  767. 01[16:48] <DHGM> They die.
  768. 02[16:49] * Dylan16807 (Dylan@sux-8BF60227.dreamhost.com) Quit (Ping timeout)
  769. 06[16:49] * Boro lols as he puts on his rebreather, now quite skilled in its use.
  770. [16:49] <Logan> "Fuck, first webs, now poison..."
  771. 06[16:49] * Logan backs the fuck away
  772. 03[16:49] * Dylan16807 (Dylan@sux-8BF60227.dreamhost.com) has joined #DarkHeresy
  773. 06[16:49] * Marina covers her mouth with her shirt and moves away
  774. 06[16:50] * Boro hums quietly as he phiflers through the gangers pockets, while wreathed in the green cloud.
  775. 01[16:52] <DHGM> Their pockets contain only a few spare magazines of ammunition, although one has concert tickets, anothe has autocycle keys, and the third as a wallet with 23 thrones.
  776. [16:52] <Boro> "So, girly, I can really see you can take care of yourself here."
  777. [16:52] <Boro> He's grinning slightly under the rebreather.
  778. [16:52] <Marina> "think we can find more of these guys at the concert?"
  779. 06[16:53] * Boro pockets all of their stuff in his backpack, along with their weaponry.
  780. [16:53] <Boro> "Heh. We should do this more often."
  781. 01[16:54] <DHGM> >> Three Autopistols.
  782. 06[16:54] * Logan shouts "BORO! THEY'VE GOT GAS NOW! POISON GAS!"
  783. 01[16:55] <DHGM> The shots Logan fired have caused, well, chaos. People run back and forth, and a few men in ganger outfits rush onto the scene and into the bar.
  784. [16:55] <Marina> "It's over Logan"
  785. 06[16:55] * Boro ignores the high-as-fuck scummer, still looting to his hearts content.
  786. [16:55] <Marina> "Ah shit..."
  787. [16:55] <Marina> "Be right back i
  788. 01[16:55] <DHGM> >> Three more Autopistols if you check ALL the gangers.
  789. 06[16:55] * Logan clutches his shotgun close to him
  790. [16:55] <Marina> "I need my guns"
  791. [16:55] <Boro> (>looting)
  792. [16:55] <Boro> (>Implies everything.)
  793. 01[16:56] <DHGM> The bouncers are fighting against the scummers, shock maul against knives and pistols.
  794. 06[16:56] * Marina heads inside, and acts as inconspicuous as possible, and tries to retrieve her equipment
  795. [16:57] <Marina> (inconspicuously)
  796. 01[16:57] <DHGM> A crash is heard and a ganger is thrown through a window, his chest smoking from the blast of a shotgun. Through the broken window can be seen the bargirl, prancing through the chaos laughing hysterically and blamming any gangers that get too close.
  797. [16:57] <Boro> Having finished all of the looting, the assassin walks over to the drop harness still hanging from the rooftop, and starts climbing it again, taking his good time to make sure his footing stays true.
  798. 01[16:57] <DHGM> Another group of gangers rushes in, and another. The bar becomes a hot-spot of fighting.
  799. 06[16:57] * Boro takes a quick glance at the woman, and thinks that she'd be a fine match for Logan.
  800. 01[16:57] <DHGM> Apparently, they area had been a powder keg of discontent anyways.
  801. 06[16:59] * Marina moves through the crowd, and grabs her rifle, and melta, and books it out of the back door.
  802. 01[16:59] <DHGM> The sound of sirens in the distance does nothing to drive the warring factions away. If anything, the number of bullets flying past and overhead increases, and men fall to the ground attempting to flee the fighting.
  803. 06[16:59] * Logan runs down the ally.
  804. [16:59] <Logan> "Lass, where are you?"
  805. 06[16:59] * Marina is right behind logan
  806. [16:59] <Marina> "Right here."
  807. 06[16:59] * Boro drops down from the roof again.
  808. 06[17:00] * Logan hugs Marina
  809. 06[17:00] * Boro runs hurridly up to the two.
  810. [17:00] <Boro> "We have to get out of here. Now."
  811. [17:00] <Logan> "Thank the Emperor!"
  812. [17:00] <Boro> "That means you too, druggie."
  813. 06[17:00] * Marina doesn't fight against it... "Damn drunk"
  814. 06[17:00] * Boro grabs Logan by the neck and drags him off.
  815. 01[17:00] <DHGM> A trio of squadcars pull up, Enforcers ducking out of what are now essentially sitting targets. One takes a wound, and then dies as his helmet is caved in.
  816. [17:01] <Marina> "Well if nothing else, this helps clear some of the scum out of this city."
  817. 01[17:01] <DHGM> Another pair are killed as an RPG round from a nearby third story window blows their car several feet into the air, wreathing it in flame for a moment.
  818. 01[17:02] <DHGM> The sporadic gunfire from the Enforcers increases as a Chimera rolls in, a squad of Arbites taking cover behind a few pristine benches and sculptures.
  819. 06[17:02] * Boro quickly wreathes the harness around the drugged-down scummer, and starts climbing along with him, making sure he gets up safely.
  820. [17:02] <Boro> "Girl, grab the rope! We're going over them!"
  821. 06[17:02] * Marina grabs da rope
  822. 01[17:03] <DHGM> A blood-curdling scream from inside the bar shows the bargirl with a rather over-sized meat cleaver hewn into a man's forehead. Who screamed is uncertain, but the arc of blood splatters across another window, and the drops roll down slowly.
  823. [17:03] <Marina> "Well on the bright side, if this gets much worse, and the whole city descends to pandemonium...
  824. [17:03] <Marina> Then every criminal group will be out and about, for us to find."
  825. [17:04] <Boro> "All the less heretics to stand with the Second Imperium at any rate. This whole planet should burn, if you ask me."
  826. [17:04] <Logan> "And the darkness will scream out loud to us"
  827. [17:04] <Logan> "Not a fucking chance if we're still on it"
  828. 01[17:04] <DHGM> The bar patrons and employess manage to push back the gangers, who make a partial retreat down the street away from the Arbites. However, a small group of the super Enforcers break from their lines and charge the gangers, combat shotguns tearing them apart.
  829. [17:05] <Boro> "We'll be off before they find enough timber to put to the flame, budd."
  830. [17:05] <Boro> (We all on the roof now, yes?)
  831. [17:05] <Marina> "So..."
  832. [17:05] <Marina> "What do we do now?"
  833. [17:06] <Marina> "No leads that I know of."
  834. [17:06] <Boro> "We find a way down to the streets again. I reckon a building or two between us should do."
  835. [17:06] <Marina> (except for the concert ticket that I don't know of :P)
  836. 01[17:06] <DHGM> There is much of the same to be seen as the trio of acolytes flees by rooftop. Perhaps the last thing they see is another group of gangers flank the brave yet foolish Arbite rush, felling two before surrounding the third.
  837. [17:06] <Logan> "We stay up high, they can't get us here at all."
  838. [17:07] <Boro> "I'd rather not risk it when they have rocketlaunchers."
  839. 06[17:08] * Boro finds a snug little catwalk down to the streets again, Logan in tow behind him.
  840. 06[17:09] * Logan is rather content to look at things as he is towed around
  841. 01[17:09] <DHGM> The city takes on a much mroe exotic tone when one is high on hallucinogens.
  842. [17:09] <Boro> "Useless.. Sack of meat.." The assassin is panting heavily as he has to drag the scummer with him.
  843. [17:12] <Boro> Giving up on trying to get the scummer to scale the catwalk, he gives up and just shoves him over, aiming at a neat pile of garbage down on the streets.
  844. 01[17:12] <DHGM> Although it must be said that whether intoxicated or no, the flash of light that followed the acolytes into the night was rather odd.
  845. [17:12] <Boro> "This is feeling nostalgic.."
  846. 06[17:12] * Logan falls, suddenly extremely alert and lucis
  847. [17:12] <Logan> *lucid
  848. 01[17:12] <DHGM> Centered back at the bar, the city seemed to be waking up, although it was indeed merely a false dawn.
  849. 06[17:12] * Boro drops down after Logan.
  850. 06[17:12] * Marina 's heart is still racing. She thinks "I almost had my first time in an alleyway with a ganger... Thank the Emperor for Boro, asshole or no."
  851. 01[17:12] <DHGM> But assuredly, something had just been put to the flame. Or exploded.
  852. 06[17:13] * Boro :3's as he telepathically reads Marina's mind.
  853. 01[17:13] <DHGM> And apart from that, it must be something large, to make the night so... bright.
  854. 02[17:13] * Logan (betamax@sux-B853C87.manc.cable.ntl.com) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
