IC: NikilaShe generaly wasn't one to cry, but she found hereself doing so. And she couldn't stop.And who could blame her? She had known him longer than most of the beings in here were old, She just couldn't believe that it ended like this. After all those close calls and near misses.Why?OOC: Man, once she finds out he's alright...![]()
IC: LaserbeakLAserbeak looked shell-shocked as she hugged Nikila. She hugged Nikila tightly, as much to comfort her as to comfort herself. She couldn't believe that Jaron was dead. She just couldn't believe it. She was waiting for him to walk through the door and announce that it was a prank. She hung her head onto Nikila's shoulder and started to sob.
OOC: Aw, I'm touched....Okay, not really, but thanks for being sad that he's (supposedly) gone.
IC-Ryllia:Ryllia slumped in a chair, covering her eyes with her hand. "That old fool," she said, sobbing slightly. She shook her head, and stood up. She walked into the back room, and shut the door.
IC: Skyra"No...he...can't be dead..." Skyra looked to stunned to say anything else.IC: EmotiaEmotia couldn't help by cry as well, the poor guy...it was terrible.
IC: OnuzekHe just sat down and stared at the ground. It was kinda hard for him to loose someone like Jaron.
IC: Tillian (Bright-Star Inn, Le-Koro)After about ten minutes of wildly swinging the staff at whatever he saw, Tillian threw it to the ground in disgust and walked downstairs, trying to leave the building. Someone (he wasn't sure who) tried to stop him, but he merely brushed them off and walked out the door, slamming it behind him.He began to walk around Le-Koro, trying to get some air.-Teezy
IC-Jaron:Jaron woke again, in the hospital. There were doctors around him, and he noticed one of his legs wouldn't move. He checked it, noticing that it had broken when he fell off the surfboard. He must have fallen somewhere around twenty feet, then. He looked over at the doctors."Er, would anybody mind helping me get out of here?" He asked them, trying to get off the bed. A nurse came up to him, trying to push him back down. He pushed back."Give me a bloody wheelchair, a crutch, anything!" He yelled. "I'd rather get some fresh air and die than have to live in here!" A few minutes later, he was back at his little clearing on the edge of the Koro, sighing contentedly. The doctor was supposed to pick him up soon. He noticed Tillian walking around, and decided to wave at his friend." 'Ello, Tillian!" He called to the Toa of Gravity. "Wonderful weather, isn't it?"
IC: Tillian (Hospital, Le-Koro)Tillian jumped at the sound and turned, looking wildly. You're hallucinating, Till...Then he turned and saw Jaron waving cheerily, leaning on a crutch.What the...?"Jaron?" he whispered in awe, tears welling in his eyes. He began to stride towards his friend, and when he was about three feet away, Tillian drew back his fist and slammed it into the Toa of Fire's face.OOC: In fairness, you should have seen that coming.-Teezy
OOC: Ah, a fist to the face. The perfect way to tell if somebody is real.IC-Jaron:"Alright," Jaron said, laughing slightly. "Now that we know I'm real, let's get on to business." He rubbed his face, making sure his jaw was still in place. He looked around, not noticing anything different, but he wouldn't be able to tell if things had changed or not."How long have I been out?" He asked suddenly. "A week? A month? Maybe even a year?" He looked up at Tillian. "That, and what exactly has happened?" OOC: Let's assume he was out for a few hours, shall we? ![]()
OOC: Grr..... Nikila was going to do that.
IC: HakilveHe had the time of his life warping around the village.
IC, Agzinel: Jaron? Dead? No, it can't be! he thought to himself. Agzinel put his head down, and a tear came out of the corner of his eye. Although Agzinel barely knew him, Jaron was going to be missed.OOC: But he's alive! ![]()
IC: MimiraMimira began to prepare 'hot dogs', they weren't really hot dogs though, they were a easily destructible compound that disintegrated when exposed to elemental power. Soon, there was a huge pile of hot dogs between the two. Mimira was the ref for the contest. "1....2....3....EAT!"IC (Dekuna as the Big Bad Troll): "Sure, why not?" the troll replied. "Just so long as the princess cooks. I already rhymed about having kidnapped the best cook on Tama Nui."
OOC: Wait a second, these things explode when in contact with elemental power? Havon and Dekuna are both toa, and their bodies are super-charged with elemental energy. As soon as they eat the stuff it will come into contact with that power, so won't it explode inside them?IC (Dekuna): None of this was following Dekuna's script, so he decided to just wing it. He hadn't heard anything of an eating contest, but so he went with it. As soon as Miha got the words out, he started cramming hotdogs through the mouth of his troll costume and packing them inside the creatures bulging belly and big ugly head.
OOC:"Destructible" does not necessarily mean "explosive".This topic moves fast, by the way. My characters have had reason to respond to both flaming arrows being fired, people fighting, and a few other things; but before I'm even aware of the event it has passed...IC: Madrihk:"The Turaga is at his hut, I would presume," Madrihk said, somewhat surprised by the question. "Ah, heck, I'll just go there too. If you're coming with us to Pala-Koro," he said directed at Cy and Aelynn, "you will probably want to hear this as well. It regards our next... project."
IC: Lux - Le-KoroLux watched the sunset, trying to determine just what he was feeling right now. After a long while, he finally settled on 'sad'. He had lost two of his friends, and his third was fighting for her life. It was enough to make you weep.But Lux wasn't much the weeping type, so instead, he just stood, and watched the sun, as if that might make things better. It did, in a way. Slowly, a feeling of serenity dawned on him, and Lux felt just a tad better.And then, a Toa of Stone teleported beside him.And Lux screamed.OOC: That would be Hakilve, Gravity.-Void
OOC:
IC: HakilveHe was having a whole lot o' fun with his new mask. That was, untill someone screamed."Oh Mata Nui I didn't do it!" he said putting his four hands up.
IC: Readra emerged from a passing mob of assorted species and came to stand between the two beings, "Alright, who's screaming, and- Woah, four hands!" he exclaimed at Hakiive's unusual limb count.OOC: That's Lux and Hakiive, you guys.
IC: HakilveHe put two of his hand on his hips and said, "Yeah, so what? Big beal.""Why is everyone like 'whoa dude, you gotz four arms' and I'm all like 'what the karz, big deal'?"
IC: VibayaVibaya Walked around in front of Shady, standing just slightly taller, as was common for his species. He did not return the smile, not in the slightest. "Nex presented me with two targets this time. I suppose that means he knows of my alliance with you... the first of which is..." he looked at a tablet and frowned. "You, a rather humorous joke to Nex I suppose. The second target is... a Toa of Sand with a mask shaped like a... three?"
IC - Shady - TalkingShady froze as he heard the first target. A "joke.""I come from places you can't see/better watch what you're saying to me." he mumbled under his breath.The second target sounded bizarre. Were toa of sand basically toa of stone? Probably."Do we get a name?" he asked.
IC: Readra rubbed the back of his neck nervously, "Ah, sorry, just came as a bit of a surprise, that's all."
IC: HakilveHe sighed, "Yeah, ok, whatever."The Toa fo Stone turned towards Lux and asked, "Whats with all the screaming?"
IC: Vibaya"Actually, I was making that up, it was a joke. What being would be strange enough to wear a mask shaped like a three." It was as close to a joke as you would likely ever get out of Vibaya, and it proved that he was in a better mood than usual, probably dues to his most recent escape going mostly as planned."We're hunting down a Toa, a blacksmith. He has refused offers to assist NEX by the production of armor."
IC: Tillian (Hospital, Le-Koro)"About two hours, actually," said Tillian. "Where did you go, anyway? I tried to resuscitate you, but you were definitely dead..."So why is he standing right here?-Teezy
IC-Jaron:"Aye, well, I'm fairly certain that after you left the doctor's managed to fix me up. I thought I saw them wrestling you out of the room, but I just thought I was dreaming or something." Jaron shrugged, before sitting back down on the stump. He sighed."Ah, I think my fighting days are over," he said, mostly to himself. "I've barely been a Toa for three hundred years, and I'm already being kicked off the job." He laughed slightly, leaning his head back. "Ah, well, I've been looking forward to a retirement anyways."He looked up at Tillian, motioning to a stump across from him. "Sit down, Tillian, relax," he said, closing his eyes, listening to the things around him.
IC: Tillian (Hospital, Le-Koro)Tillian sat down on the stump as Jaron asked him to."So, what now? You go Turaga and spend your days cursing the rest of us whippersnappers who won't get the cark off your lawn?"-Teezy
IC-Jaron:Jaron laughed at what Tillian said. "Turaga?" He looked incredulously at the Commander. "On no, that isn't going to happen," he said, shaking his head."I'm not quite the old relic you make me out to be, Tillian," he said to the toa. "No, I'm still gonna follow after you guys, I'm just not going to do quite as much. I'm more likely to supervise, now, than take action." He closed his eyes again, breathing in the calm air of the small grove."So, Tillian, what do you say we head back to the others?" Jaron asked suddenly. "I don't want those doctors coming back to find me, and I'd rather have another heart attack and die than deal with them again." Jaron shook his head. He didn't really like doctors all that much.
IC: Tillian (Hospital, Le-Koro)"We can go back to the inn if you want," said Tillian with a shrug as he stood up, "but you might not like what you find."OOC: If my posts come across as slower than usual today, it's because I'm planning out my entry for RPG23.-Teezy
IC: NikilaShe was in her bed, curled up in a ball, still crying.OOC: ![]()
IC - Shady - Talking"Of course. Refusing to do business with our wonderful leaders. Inexcusable." he said sarcastically."Do we have a name?" he repeated.
IC-Jaron:"Yes, I'd rather head back to the inn," Jaron said, looking worriedly at a nurse who was searching for him. Thankfully, the grove was hard to find without explicitly knowing about it. It was a rather odd place in the Koro.He stood up, leaning on his crutch. "Back we go," Jaron announced, hobbling across one of the platforms.OOC: I have an idea for an RPG: I'm calling it Shadows in the Deep. It takes place in the pit, right after the Mahri Nui rock floated down. Good setting, no? ![]()
IC: Tillian (Grove, Le-Koro)"Alright, man," he said, walking back with Jaron to the inn, "but the others aren't going to be happy to see you..."OOC: Mine is called Bare Knuckle. 'Tis about underground fighting tournaments on one of the Southern Islands in the Makutaverse.-Teezy
OOC: Lolz, I have one, too. I'm calling it Sands of Survival and it takes place a few years after the Shattering on Bara MagnaIC: KarkhalmHe made his way through the 'streets' of Le-Koro, looking out for trouble.
IC-Jaron:"The everlasting paradox of the mind," Jaron said philosophically. "We are sad when others die, and we want them back, but when it turns out that they're alive...we get very, very mad at them." He sighed, hobbling along to the inn.He walked in, looking at everybody who was there. "Big surprise, guys, it turns out I'm alive!" He said then, sitting down in a chair.OOC: Ah. Well, in case anybody wants to try and run for Shadows in the Deep with me...assuming I ever get it written, that is...PM me.
IC: LAserbeakLaserbeak had been sitting in her chair, looking very much like nobody was home. Eyes wide, head hung, slouching. Then Jaron walked in, and she looked up. And stared. And stared. "...Jaron?" She sounded like she didn't believe what she was seeing.
IC: Tillian (Bright-Star Inn, Le-Koro)"Surprised?" asked Tillian, taking off his bloody shirt and throwing it over a chair. "I was, too."-Teezy
OOC: *PMs Kal*
IC: NikilaShe finaly stopped, crying, and was going down to get something to drink. Rubbing her eyes as she walked down the stairs she said, "Does anybody have a-"She stopped in mid-sentance when she saw him.Jaron was suddenly sent flying out of the chair from a tackle hug.
IC: Tillian (Bright-Star Inn, Le-Koro)Tillian came back from his room after a couple minutes wearing a new shirt and saluted the group, who were celebrating the return of Jaron."I'm gonna go buy a new shirt," he said. "Back in a couple minutes."He walked out the door and began to look for a clothing store.-Teezy
IC: Vibaya"Zyckel, Zyckel Kraar. Toa of Gravity, mask of Sonar. Lacks fighting skills, but runs a business, meaning timing is the key to success and not being caught." He remarked calmly, reading from the tablet. "And the second target, if we feel like hunting them down, is his sister. No name given, last name Kraar."
IC: Lux - Le-KoroHaving stopped screaming long enough to attempt to comprehend what was going on, Lux whispered, "Sorry 'bout that."Slowly composing himself, he found himself staring at Hakilve's extra arms. Looking away quickly, he instead tried to size up the two new arrivals, "Well, uh, hello. Good to meet you guys. I'm Lux."He held out one hand to each of them.-Void
