Channelknight Fadran Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 "Here's the place I was telling you about!" Jessica said, presenting to Shadow and Sicaria. It was less of a place and more of a shanty. A little hut built along a line of buildings. The Alleycity was always kind of dark and dreary, but this place was really dark and dreary. The perfect place for a villain hideout. "Yes, I know it's kind of underwhelming. We're on a budget! On the bright side, we don't have to worry about people finding us anytime soon." Jessica scratched her chin. "Or maybe that should be an issue, because now it'll be hard to join... eh, we'll save those issues for later. Welcome to Supervillain Incorporated HQ, my friends!" @Condensation @Scarletfox 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't very big on the inside, but it looked like Jessica had taken the time to clean up the place. It wasn't dusty or disorganized. There was a desk and chair in the corner by the door, and a cheap-looking sofa sitting by an unlit hearth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacitus Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 Althara watched the people. Well, here's a good place to start. No worry about morals. He walked forward, removing his mask, approaching them. "H-Hello. Is this- are you- can-" Alth sighed. "I'm...interested. In this... thing". He really would have to deal with his speech if he was going to interact with people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacitus Posted January 18, 2021 Report Share Posted January 18, 2021 Alth sort of stumbled for a moment, but then brought up his steel. He summoned his shardblade, rising a foot or two in the air with precise Lashings, and scorched the ground below him with Division. They couldn't be allowed to see him as weak. "Althara Yuris," He said. A fake name. Smoke rose from his shardblade, a trick he'd learned with Division, exploiting its indestructible nature. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacitus Posted January 18, 2021 Report Share Posted January 18, 2021 Alth gave a slight smile. "I'm not some Windrunner. And even as a Skybreaker, I follow the law as I believe it should be, not as it is. I'm something of an outlier among them".
