Quivil Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 Quote I feel really bad now, but also, that was awesome. Imma use that to give Tvora a reason to not help fight the monsters by messing up their webs. Tvora's body stops breathing for a moment. Her Chaos panicks, and Tvora's hands claw at her throat. Pain. For a single, horrifying second, all she feels is pure pain. Tvora recoils. Quote Coincidentally, Tvora's breath stopped and Tvora felt pain for the exact same time Martin couldn't breathe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spren of Kindness Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 Martin grabs the knife he had dropped, forcing himself past the pain it causes. He needs to get out of this fight before he gets someone hurt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Fadran, I've got a problem!" 9 hours ago, Spren of Kindness said: For a single, horrifying second, he can't breathe. He can't breathe. There's a faraway noise, and he realizes he's dropped a knife, clutching at the back of his neck. Air rushes back. He looks at... what's his name? Should he know it? You good? No. No, he's not. "Compromised," he rasps. 5 hours ago, Spren of Kindness said: Martin grabs the knife he had dropped, forcing himself past the pain it causes.

Spren of Kindness Posted June 19, 2021 Report Share Posted June 19, 2021 Martin slumps a bit, his head pounding. Without the adrenaline of a fight, the numbness that precedes implant activation is creeping over his limbs. "I know how this goes," he says. Why does he sound so conversational? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably shouldn't say that one out loud. "The implant's glitching. I don't know what to do, it's activating, and I can't stop it." Too much panic in his voice. Got to cut back on that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xinoehp512 Posted June 19, 2021 Report Share Posted June 19, 2021 Creatures fall in a rising pile, melting back into the color from whence they came. The blue creature roars, revealing the black orb set at the back of its throat. The fighters could feel the color begin to drain from them once again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reese had her implant activated for three days once. She was fine. "Just... I'm gonna take things very literally. Probably won't talk. 'That's an order, soldier,' should get me to do most things." His hands are shaking, and he pulls his weapons out and sets them on the ground, before deliberately stepping away from them. Or crawling. That's a better description. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spren of Kindness Posted June 19, 2021 Report Share Posted June 19, 2021 "I will be. I trust you." The numbness is everywhere. Deep breath in, deep breath out. Repeat. He closes his eyes.

Spren of Kindness Posted June 19, 2021 Report Share Posted June 19, 2021 None of the Rapier's designated superior officers are present. Protocol dictates that he observe the situation and determine who the commanding officers are, then make any decisions required. He will follow the protocol. Quote So, that's my plan. Basically from here until I get back, the Rapier will essentially just observe. You can assume that he sticks close to Ayia, or Fadran, and I won't mind if you remark on it at any point. Just like 'Martin is standing nearby, with that strange stare' sort of thing. It'll actually be helpful for me to keep track of where he is, but don't bother if you don't want to do it. Like Martin said, he'll follow most orders, especially if there's a fight going on. I might be able to log on with mobile a couple times, but it's highly unlikely and also somewhat expensive with the situation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
