IC: ReaverShe almost shoved Tillian away, then she remembered that she liked hugs, quite a lot. 'Good to see you too, mate. Hey, is Emotia around?' Then she saw the Mark on his arm. And then she shoved him away, drawing a Talon in alarm.'Okay, you've got some serious explaining to do, surf rat!'OOC: Did I get that right? Surf rat?
IC: Tillian (Ga-Wahi)"Take it easy," he said with a quizzical look. "The last person who bore this Mark attacked me last night. When I came to, it was on my shoulder and she was dead.""And yeah, Emotia's around. She's over there with Laserbeak."-Teezy
IC: Reaver'Well, that's just great. You figured out what emotion it is yet?' She spun her knife around in her hand, before sheathing it with an apologetic look on her face.
IC: Tillian (Ga-Wahi)"Lust," he said, looking thoroughly sickened by the tattoo on his shoulder. "What a catch, right?"-Teezy
IC: Onuzek"Hi!" the gigantic Toa said again, this time to a being whoi had found her way to the group. After flashing a rather large grin at Reaver, Onuzek turned to Labelle.He didn't say anything else, and didn't know what to with his... limited vocabulary.ooc:Emotia, Azginel, Tillian, Onuzek, etc?
IC: Reaver'Why do I get the feeling I'm going to enjoy this a lot?' She said, grinning maliciously. 'Dont knock it 'til you try it, mate. Better than being a Normal-what the heck happened to your teeth?!' She stepped forward and pricked Tillian on the shoulder with her knife, licking his blood off the Talon.'Interesting. Your veins are coursing with an insatiable bloodlust.' A grin slowly cracked across her face, and she held out, then sliced her arm, watching Tillian's eyes grow wider at the scent of blood.
IC: Tillian (Naho Bay, Ga-Wahi)Unbidden, Tillian's stomach growled loudly, and he looked down, then at Reaver's arm."Not cool," he muttered.-Teezy
IC: Reaver'They don't call me Reaver for nothing. Then again, I didn't choose that name...' She realized that she had said too much, and promptly shut herself up.
IC: Tillian (Ko-Wahi)"So...Emotia specifically requested you be her maid of honor," Til said, purposely commandeering the conversation and turning it away. "Would you, uh...be cool with that?"-Teezy
IC:"Hello" Labelle said again, this time to Onuzek. "I don't mean to pry, but... well, it seems like you're quite the group here, and it looks like you've gathered here because of him" she said, nodding towards the grave. "It seems rather touching, and I was hoping you could tell me whatever story it is you people have."
IC: Reaver'Wait a tick.... you mean Emotia's getting married?' She jumped up in the air and squealed with glee. 'Oh my gosh, this is amazing! Who's the lucky guy?'
IC: LaserbeakLaserbeak tapped Labelle on the shoulder. "Two things. One. She was a she, not a he.""Two. We're all here because of him." She gestured toward Tillian.Laserbeak pointedly ignored Krian.
IC: Tillian (Naho Bay, Ga-Wahi)"Onuzek," Tillian said with a straight face. "Surprised? Me, too."Then he grinned a bit, and his eyes lit up as talk of the wedding came around."I proposed a couple days ago," he said, his voice lowering. "Listen, Reavs...I know we've had our issues in the past, and even though I'm not sure why I caused them, you don't have to let them go. Just please...hold off on the plotting my murder thing for the time being? For Emotia's sake?"-Teezy
IC: OnuzekThe massive Toa, having heard his name being said, turned around. "Wha...?"Although, once he realised that no one was actually talking to him, he turned back around to Labelle. Right around then was when Onuzek noticed Laserbeak, and he picked said Toa up into a giant Onuzek-hug. "Laserbeak!"
IC: ReaverAfter a brief pause, she said solemnly 'Okay. But I'm doing this for Emotia, not you.' Deciding to redirect the conversation, she added 'And I'd be delighted to be her Maid of Honour. All I have to stand there and look pretty, right? Well, as pretty as I can get with this.' She muttered, pointing out the scars that coated her armour.She also added briefly 'And don't call me Reavs, makes me sound like a bloody child.'
IC: Tillian (Naho Bay, Ga-Wahi)"You'll look fine," Tillian said, an amused smile edging its way along his face. "Laserbeak has a...surprising talent for fashion design."-Teezy
IC: Reaver'Well, it'll be a new and exciting experience for all of us, then,' she said sarcastically. She walked over to Emotia and held her arms out wide for a hug.'Emotia! I'm not sure whether to kiss you or slap you for marrying that pillock!' She yelled jokingly.
IC: LaserbeakLaserbeak's hand twitched. "Hi, Onuzek. Please do me a favor, and not snap my spine. I kinda need it."Her head swiveled to look at Tillian as best she could while being hugged. She gave Tillian a questioning look. She'd heard her name.
IC: Tillian (Naho Bay, Ga-Wahi)"Good to see you, too," he muttered when she walked away. Tillian, too, began to walk down the beach, away from the group.After all...he was pretty hungry.-Teezy
IC: Onuzek"Oh... Right," the gigantic Toa said, and set Laserbeak back down. He then introduced himself to Labelle, saying with a huge grin that he usually wore, "Onuzek's name is Onuzek."OOC: I just realised that I could give Onuzek a new name. ![]()
IC:"Oh, sorry, I didn't realize it was a she" Labelle apologized."I'm Labelle, and nice to meet you. Suddenly everyone started talking and moving around, and Labelle wasn't quite sure what to make of it. She thought she heard people talking about a wedding. "Now I'm really confused" she told Onuzek and Lazerbeak. "What's this grave got to do with a wedding?" She felt like there was a very interesting story behind all this.
IC: Tillian (Naho Bay, Ga-Wahi)As he walked, Tillian's heightened senses began to pick up...something. Something sleek, powerful, ready for a kill.Pollux Troy had followed him."Heyyyyy there, Troy," Tillian called out. "Where are you at? I never got to say goodbye last night."A bullet thudded into a tree six inches away from Tillian's head in reply."Oh, c'mon. Is that any way to treat a nemesis?"After about sixty seconds, the bounty hunter walked out from a thicket of foliage about twenty yards in front of Tillian, all four of his limbs moving fluidly through the -- four limbs?"Didn't I lop off your arm?""A gift from my brother."Tillian's head tilted slightly in curiosity, and then his eyes widened and he began to laugh."Aw, man, that's cold. Not as cold as he is right now, but...""You think I delighted in killing my brother?""I would have. You two were like the Stooges of the criminal underworld. He's no great loss."Pollux took a step forward out of rage, but Tillian was faster: he knocked away Pollux's sniper rifle and grabbed him by the throat, spinning him and slamming him into the ground."You know, it's a good thing you showed up. I was getting bored...and hungry."Troy's eyes widened in reply."Let's play a game that can remedy all our problems. It's called 'How Long Can Pollux Outlast His Brother In A Fight?' My guess is about ten minutes. If you're lucky, you'll spend five of them comatose."Pollux swung his new arm at Tillian's head, but the new arm was weak, the stitches still not settled in: tearing it out of its socket was no difficult task for the Toa of Gravity."One minuuute!" Tillian called out in a singsongy voice, over Pollux's scream of pain. "Is that a forfeit? I think it was."Polluxf kicked at Tillian, sending him flying backwards a couple feet. With the sight of blood, and the taste of it on his lips, Tillian's Mark of Lust glowed a light golden."Now that I can respect!" he yelled, standing up and evading another one of Pollux's high kicks. The Vortixx attempted another swing with his remaining arm, but Tillian caught it and threw Pollux over his head, watching him slam into the ground behind him with golden anticipation. Troy stood up again and tried to run, but the Mark Bearer was too fast for him: in an instant, Tillian had run forward and knocked Pollux to the ground. "You'll never win. There are a thousand hunters, waiting to take my place at the slightest whisper of my demise.Tillian's eyes widened in surprise and a bit of confusion; he seemed to take Pollux's statement at face value for a moment before shrugging."Nine hundred ninety nine to go," he said with a smirk before bending down. The last thing the Crimson Nova bounty hunter saw was Tillian's mouth closing over his throat before he blacked out and finally welcomed the embrace of death. Now fully sated, Tillian stood up and wiped away any traces of blood away from his lips. Taking a canister of Bula juice, Tillian washed around with his mouth a bit, rinsing any of the Vortixx's blood from his teeth. After balling up Pollux's body with a gravitation field and tossing it into the dirt for the animals, he walked over to the sniper rifle discarded during the fight and put it on his back: it crossed perfectly with his Staff of Hunger, creating a black X of death across his spinal cord."Now that that's over..." he muttered, walking back to the beach.-Teezy
OOC: Whoa.lulz awesome post. :PWait, I thought you couldn't take tech from your own characters.
IC: GykehlThe Toa of Sonics stood outside of the inn, his yellow armor making him quite noticable. Gykehl was, however overused this is, listening to the sounds of the world; literally.He enjoyed it greatly, almost as much as talking. Most people wouldn't guess, but the mute Toa loved to talk.Ironic? Well, he thought so. He wondered what Lii was doing, his sister usually being the first one up. Well, knowing her, she's probably talking her mouth off and getting food. At the same time.OOC: Derp. :PGykehl open for interaction.
IC: Laserbeak"It doesn't, not directly." Laserbeak answered. "It belongs to a friend of ours. We found it by accident. We didn't know she was dead.""As for the wedding, those two," She gestured toward where Tillian had gone and where Emotia was. "Are getting hitched."
OOC: Already got it planned out, brah.IC: Tillian (Naho Bay, Ga-Wahi)As Tillian walked back to the group, he smiled as he felt the touch of the sniper rifle's steel on his back. As cool as it was, he already had a pretty cool staff that he liked. So he did the most rational thing he could think of."Hey, Onuzek!" he yelled, taking the rifle off his back and tossing it to the other Toa of Gravity. "Happy birthday, big guy."-Teezy
OOC: ......lulz.like, seriously: lol. What was Tillian's chain of thought? Giving Onuzek the rifle.
IC: Onuzek"Oooooooooooooooo........ Yay, birthday!" the massive Toa said, catching the rifle with suprisingly fast relfexes. Scratching his head, he asked, "Um.... Onuzek is wondering what it is."Probably wasn't a good idea, giving him a ranged weapon and all. But who cares, right?
IC: Tillian (Naho Bay, Ga-Wahi)"It's a noisemaker, buddy," Tillian explained. "You pull the trigger looking thing, then there's a loud flash and a bang and everyone gets really excited."-Teezy
IC:"I see...But you know, most events are indirectly linked, and its those links that make the best stories." Then, not wanting to seem rude, Labelle turned to Tillian and Emotia. "Congragulations" she told them, "I do so love weddings. They're just so cheerful, and romantic - you two are really lucky." Labelle didnt show it, but she felt a twinge of jealousy. Hearing about a wedding, of a couple in love... it reminded of her something long ago, but she couldn't remember what.Suddenly she saw a gun pointing in her direction, held lazily by Onuzek. She ducked and shrieked "Careful with that thing! I'm just trying to be nice here!"
IC: Onuzek"Holy awesome noisemaker yeah! Oh... AWESOME," the over excited Toa of Gravity said. Holding the rifle in one hand, as it was kinda smallish compared to him, he did as Tillian said and pulled the trigger.Thus placing a shot within a meter of Skyra's head, but Onuzek didn't notice that, he was too busy being wide-eyed at the fact that it made noise.
IC: LaserbeakLaserbeak switched into combat mode.She saw gun.She saw gun aimed vaguely in her direction.Response:Draw dart gun, lunge and roll out of the way, and bring it up into firing position.
IC: OnuzekJust now noticing Laserbeak roll and pull something out, Onuzek decided to do the smart thing. He held the sniper rifle out closer to Laserbeak, and said, "Laserbeak, look what Tillian gave Onuzek! It makes noise!"Which was pretty friggin' awesome to him.
IC: LaserbeakLaserbeak's instincts warred within her. On one hand, it was Onuzek. On the other hand, he was pointing a sniper rifle at her."Onuzek, dear, point that somewhere else within the next five seconds or I will sedate you."
IC: Tillian (Naho Bay, Ga-Wahi)"You're gonna need a hella big dart."-Teezy
IC: Laserbeak"Believe me, I've got a big enough dart."
IC: Onuzek"OK!" he said, cheerfully as always. It was probably because he didn't exactly know what sedate actually was. Onuzek moved the rifle from Laserbeak's face, and unknowingly pointed at Tillian.His friends needed to get him to put it away, fast. Or someone was gonna start loosing body parts.
IC:Not wanting for another bullet to be shot, very possibly in her direction, Labelle decided to act. She used her elemental abilities to try to fill the inside of the gun with water, and then to hold the liquid in place. That way the trigger wouldnt be able to strike the bullets with enough force to fire them. "Maybe you can do what she said" Labelle said, refering to Lazerbeak.
IC: Tillian (Naho Bay, Ga-Wahi)"You know, I think you're all overreacting just a bi--"Tillian's soothing tone was cut off in a yell as Onuzek fired off another bullet; it skimmed Tillian's cheek, spilling a small amount of blood."WHOA!" he yelled, taking a step back and raising his hands in a placating gesture. "Whoa!"-Teezy
IC: Onuzek"Hmm... Onuzek was wondering what that was," he asked, refering to the bullet that almost brained Tillian. He tried to pull the trigger again, but Labelle's elemental water stopped it from firing again.It seemed his friends were safe... For now.
IC:Labelle released a sigh of relief when saw Onuzek pulling the trigger with no discernible effect. "Hey Onuzek, don't you think you should save the noise in that 'noisemaker' for after the wedding? Don't want to waste all the excitement now, do you?" Labelle started to wonder if maybe this wasnt the safest group to be around.
IC: Tillian (Naho Bay, Ga-Wahi)"That is a brilliant idea!" Tillian said, trying not to go crazy with the scent of blood so close to his mouth and nose. "We should wait until after the wedding to be excited."-Teezy
