  1. Question 17

    in Reckoners RPG

    Posted

    Then he's going to use the 5 minutes he needs to resurrect (not that he knows the actual time limit) to grab Neverthere and run away. Truely the most epic conclusion to a fight. :ph34r::P

    Then we have a chase on our hands. :ph34r::P

    Please note that Nighthound won't actively join the battle unless Timeport has already been blown up by the living bombs he's going to prepare, so there's that.

    Well, Timeport would definitely survive that, so we'll see what happens.

    Don't forget to facto Cricket in there. Huge odds changer. :ph34r:

    Nighthound is bringing his siter and living explosives, what is Timeport bringing?

    Hah, made a fortune on that one. :P

    A battleaxe and the fact that he's technically more immortal than Lucentia and Nighthound. :ph34r: (Unless beheading can't kill them.)

    …more of a, "If you can think of something for them to do or say on the way, I'd be fine with a conversation, but if you're as stuck as I am, I'd be fine with a cut to Corpsey's meeting room."

    Then I can just include that in my next post.

    EDIT Or maybe you can put it into your Nathan post, because I may not be able to post for a while.

    I wasn't sure what to have him say besides "Heck yes! You know I love me some murdering of innocents! :mellow:

     

    :mellow: So is that an "I'll take it" or an "I'm out of brain bleach, can you write it while I run to the store to buy a few more metric tons?"

    Let's see….

     

    Me: Quota

    mail-mi: Timeport

    Voidus: Streetwise 

    Mailliw: Electro 

     

    There's more, I'm sure of it, but that's everyone I can think of off the top of my head.

     

     

    Speaking of, do you want to take Quota and Timeport to Corpsey's meeting or shall I? Quota hasn't responded to Timeport yet.

    That should be "beside him." It's his other Guards firing a couple of rounds. I left it open for you to decide who gets to kill the Guards--you have a couple of people there who are more than capable of doing it.

     

    Of course, if you need anything changed, just let me know and I'll get on it. I'm sick and exhausted right now, so my apologies if my prose hits an all-time low or just flat-out doesn't make any sense.

     

    Okay, thanks. :)

     

    No, it was aweomse. :D

  14. Question 17

    Alright, now we're talking! :D

     

    mail-mi, Winter... what would you two think about doing an Epic car chase? Well, a bus chase as it happens, but the principle's the same...

     

    That may be awesome. :D 

     

    I was planning on BusDriver going up to his usual outpost, because his cover story is a once-school bus driver that is selling scrap metal around outside the Dalles. So he goes up to his usual outpost (with the Epics hidden underneath the bus--it's a very special bus, there's a reason he keeps it with himself) and they let him go out. But a car chase is a fantastic idea. :D

    They brought the Epic in before the wine glasses.

     

    Typical.

     

    “Skyler,” Reader said to the guard, “I wanted the wine glasses before the Epic. Now I’m just going to have to tell your daughter how much you hate her obsession with those decrepit Barbie dolls. They’re pretty creepy, am I right?” 

     

    Skyler glared at him, but saluted all the same and stepped out to retrieve the wine glasses. Excellent. Reader turned to the new Epic. 

     

    His name was Orange Crush, a forcefield Epic. Reader stared at him, drinking in all the information he could. He could feel Orange starting to get quite uncomfortable. 

     

    Sure enough, Orange flashed a smile and introduced himself. “Hey there, bud. The name’s Crush, and I’m an open book. What exactly were you planning to ask me again?”

     

    Reader stayed silent, and kept boring into Orange’s eyes--well, glasses, but the principle was the same. 

     

    “S’cuse me?” Orange said. 

     

    Reader sighed. “Shut your trap Orange or you’ll be meeting the wrong end of those guards’ shotguns.” 

     

    Orange recoiled and pointedly closed his mouth. Just then, Skyler came back in with two wine glasses in his hand. He set them down on the desk and backed away from the interrogation. Smiling, Reader pulled a wine bottle out of the cooler beneath the desk, uncorked it, and poured himself a glass of blissful purple wine. He purposely did not fill the other glass. 

     

    Reader leaned back and started sipping at his wine, staring thoughtfully at Orange yet again. He was enjoying feeling the awkwardness waft off of him in waves. 

     

    Orange opened his mouth again. “Look. I know I’m pretty but--” 

     

    Reader cut him off. Time to get this started. He had all the useful information he was going to get. 

     

    “Orange? That’s what you choose?” Reader shook his head sadly, setting his wine goblet on the table. “You’re a joke, Josh. Did you seriously center your entire look around a color you don’t even like?”

    I should probably get into Balckwave then. Mailliw, Mail-mi, Blackhoof, I request to be included in whatever planning you already had with jo concerning Blackwave and the current meeting. :ph34r:

     

    Um... :ph34r:

     

    I'd like either Toymaker or Upgrade, if no one else is gonna claim them. They're important as support but aren't very key players themselves, so they'd be interesting to write the occasional PoV from.

     

    Malliw and I discussed some plans with Upgrade in the distant future, so don't know if you want him and to be a part of those, or just scrap those plans altogether. :P

    Mistwraith smirked. 

     

    Calamity-cursed High Epics. BusDriver had perfected the art of grumbling mentally over his years of being “blessed” with these sparking bus powers. 

     

    “Fine. I suppose.” Mistwraith used some of her floating mist to form the shape of rolling eyes. “Let’s get going.” 

     

    BusDriver huffed. Finally. He turned to the servant girl that was still standing there humbly. “Go get Shatterblast, Platoon, and Fritz. Tell them Quicksilver wants me to take them somewhere.” She nodded quickly and ran back up the stairs. 

     

    BusDriver waited impatiently for her to return. Mistwraith seemed to be having fun turning random parts of her body into mist and twirling it all around the room. He envied her, slightly. As much as he envied every High Epic, or, well, any Epic that actually had a useful power, not just sparking bu--

     

    Someone knocked on the door. BusDriver froze, and Mistwraith seemed not to have noticed. 

     

    “Open up,” a bored-sounding male voice outside the door said. “I’m here on official Dalles City business.” 

     

    BusDriver scrambled for some way to deal with this. Any way. 

     

    “Open up or I will be forced to break through this door!” 

     

    Swallowing, BusDriver put one hand into his pocket, stepped up to the door, and opened it up with the other hand just a small crack. “Yes? What do you want? I’m busy here.” 

     

    The man, Cayden by his badge, didn’t even bother to look him in the eye, instead staring down at the clipboard in his hands. “I just have to complete a quick search of the premises. Mayor’s orders.” He finally looked up. “If you’d just step aside and let me in, I’ll be able to have the search done in minutes.”

     

    BusDriver didn't step aside. “What exactly are you searching for?”

     

    The man breathed out just slightly. “That is classified information. Though I’m sure you’ve heard of the attacks on the town, and the victims left in places with various bits of their bodies replaced by metal. I can tell you it has something to do with that. Now, sir, please step aside so that I may search the building.” 

     

    BusDriver couldn’t stop his eyes from widening slightly. They’re looking for Quicksliver. And if they were looking for Quicksilver...

     

    They’re looking for me.

     

    “Um, I don’t think...” BusDriver started, though he didn’t know what to finish with. He wasn’t very good at lying. 

     

    The man narrowed his eyes. “Sir, please step aside.”

     

    BusDriver didn’t move.

     

    The guardsman stepped up and started to push against the door with his shoulder. “Sir--I--just--need--you...” he said between breaths, then looked over BusDriver’s shoulder. BusDriver stole a quick look back as well, and saw something that horrified him.

     

    Mistwraith was still playing with her mist. 

     

    The guardsman still seemed confused for a moment, then realization settled on his face. “Is she.... Sir, are you hiding an unregistered Epic? Sir, I--”

     

    BusDriver clenched his eyes shut and cut him off. “You know, I really didn’t want to have to do this.” Opening his eyes, BusDriver swung the door open. The man stumbled in from the force he’d been pushing against the door, giving BusDriver his opening. 

     

    He activated the pebble in his pocket and forced it into the man’s mouth. 

     

    The man’s eyes widened in confusion and shock. BusDriver clamped his hand over the man’s mouth and grabbed the man’s neck with his other. He slowly forced the man out into the front yard, mentally counting down the time until the pebble would transform. 11, 10, 9,... The man struggled against his hands, but it was futile. BusDriver might have been old and grumpy, but he had grown up with a father that had taken him to work out for at least two hours every single day. Not for the last time, he silently simultaneously cursed and thanked his diseased father. 

     

    ...4, 3,...

     

    BusDriver shoved the man to the ground and backed away towards the house.

     

    ....2, 1.

     

    The man didn’t even have time to scream, nor did BusDriver have time to look away. He covered his eyes and grimaced, but it was too late. A yellow school bus, one that he kept with him for times he needed to drive out of town, grew out of the man’s head at incredibly quick speeds. 

     

    BusDriver turned back to the inside of the house to see Mistwraith watching out the door with interest, and the servant finally returning with the three Epics. 

     

    “Get in,” BusDriver grumbled. “We have to leave. Now.”

    I'm still waiting to see if Altermind gives Funtimes a reason to use Clippy. :ph34r:

     

     

    Clippy shall be our savior. :ph34r:

     

     

    ALL HAIL--

    "Looks like you're trying to swear loyalty to someone. Need some help?"

     

    This is relevant:

     

     

    That was a fun BusDriver post to write. :D Mistwraith, you're up.
