-Damn you ninja Axle!-

After a minute of stunned silence he headed back to the table, drink in hand and resumed trying to win the shirt from Lux's back

"And not a single person benifits from your constant whining," Lux stressfully said. His hand gently massaged the side of his head and closed his eyes.

Raven then returned to the room, and took his seat again with Ocara and Lux.

"Good, now we can finally get back to cards, assuming we don't have to deal with anymore drunks or any more bitching," he shot a bit of ryncol back and looked over. "I think it was your deal Rave."

Raven dealt out the round happy to back to the game and have Sal taken care off. "Let's get this game on the road people. Your money is not going to lose itself now is it?"

Lux pushed away from the table and turned to face Santius.

"For fuck's sake kid, shut up. We're all getting tired of the bullshit you're putting on," suddenly, anger spiked his voice. "Guess Verahl's little lesson didn't teach you a damn thing now did it? You need a private lesson?"

He was now standing, and coming close to his breaking point. He knew it would take both Ocara and Raven to pull him off Santius if it came to it. He was only wondering how long it'd be until they stopped him.

Raven watched Lux get up, a little shocked that Santius would continue on with his pessimism. "Kid I would suggest you shut the hell up and walk away before Lux decides to beat the shit out of you. I don't think we would be able to pull him off of you and I don't think you want to find out."

"I'd listen to Raven" said Ocara as he watched Lux inch closer towards Santius, he was tempted to just let Lux vent and was strugling to come up with a reason not to.

Sorry, my computer is a bastard who hates me. I couldn't see this thread at all. If it was one page, that would be fine, but nnnnnnnnnnoooooooooo, this computer decided to obscure the whole thread... until I found the Taser. God, I love America!
[/facetious joke]

Basara got up inbetween Lux and Santius. "Santius, you are an idiot. I sincerely pray to God you are oblivious to other's emotions, because that is the only thing that is stopping me from watching as Lux kicks your ass." Basara hooked a chair with his foot and brought it around, sitting in it. He was still inbetween the two, and now if the Krogan wanted to get Santius, he would definitely trip over the chair, in which case Basara would just hold him there, or go around the chair, in which case Santius better be able to run. Basara pulled a bottle of oil and a well-used rag and started to wipe down his left arm. "It doesn't really rust, but I would really hate to be proven wrong in the middle of a fight, you know?" He said, non-chalantly. That was one of Basara's greatest strengths. By changing emotions so suddenly, he was almost always able to change the emotions of say, a room of murderers into one of friends.

Lux gave a low growl and glared at Basara before sitting back down at the table. He looked at Raven and Ocara, obviously furious with what just happened.

"He says another thing, and I'll pit him in a race against the elevato to see who reached the lobby first..."

Lux slowly turned towards Santius. He rubbed his mouth for a second while giving out a small laugh.

"What did I just tell you kid?..." his voice was a mix between exhaustion and laughter, almost as though he was regretting what Santius had just said. It then erupted into pure anger as he got up and yelled at him. "WHAT DID I JUST FUCKING TELL YOU?!"

Suddenly, his hand grabbed a bottle from the Poker table, and whipped it across the room, sending it hurtling at Santius.

Basara looked at Lux, tracing the flight of the bottle. "What the hell? Lux, you're drunk. Yes, Santius is an ass, but that's no need to throw a damn bottle at someone. If that had actually hit someone, or shattered against the wall and rebounded, it might have hurt someone. I really don't like Santius' actions either, but you don't see me throwing a damn bottle at the guy. He's your teammate; save it for the Blood Pack."

Alright, going to have to ask you at least tone part of that last post down Scythe.

There is NO intent for murder. Sorry, but that bit of spin you added makes me feel like you have little understanding of what precisely the action was.

Lux is in no way attempting to kill Santius. You can't spin the character's actions. He's angry, a bit drunk, throwing it without taking aim, and sitting on the opposite side of the room to Santius. In short, there would be no way he'd be able to hit his temple even if he was trying to. Please change that dialogue because it's completely misrepresenting Lux's actions and is actually quite far out of context. Just because someone is assualting someone, doesn't mean in any way that there is intent to kill.

Couple other things now. First, the reaction speed for the throw would be pretty well impossible. Since the bottle really isn't headed in your direction, I can't see how Basara would have been able to move in a way that put him right between the bar and the poker table when before he was between the poker table and the door. Essentially, don't make your character interfere in situations like this when he wouldn't really be able to.

Finally, please improve the spelling and grammar of your posts. It's hard to read when the dialogue mixes in with actions and the actions aren't really seperated. Jumbled together it makes it hard to pick out and clarify.

Sorry if I'm sounding a little rough, but this is just some criticism that's piled up.

I have to agree with all the points Ted makes, the re-spinning of the actions and the godlike reaction times irked me a little. Anyways I'll just post in response to Ted's last post and edit acordingly when Scythe edits his.

Ocara sat for a moment, stunned by Lux's actions. "Shit man, remind me never to piss off Lux right?" he whispered to Raven.

After a few moments he stood and settled with the others.

"I'll see you guys later, need some time off from the relentless pessimism and the bottle flinging" he said as he stood and exited to room. He walked to where he had propped his rifle against a wall and walked over to where Esten was sitting.

"Mind if I join you?" he asked as he sat down and begun stripping his beloved Naginata or 'Nag' as he liked to refer to it.

ah. My bad, editing...

EDIT: post edited. (ironic, somehow)
anyway, sorry. I apparently misunderstood where Basara was standing. I though that he was inbetween Lux and Santius. And for the grammar thing, don't worry. I understand. Normally my grammar is pretty good, but I wanted to try writing a post on my itouch, and that thing's a ***** to type with.

On that grammar note, that's fine. I always try to avoid posting from it since it's so horrible to do.

Anyways, will post in a little while, after I finish my supper.

Esten looked up at Ocara, rather surprised someone in the company wanted to talk to him.

"No, not at all."

He watched as Ocara began to disassemble the rifle. He examined each of the components he pulled out and carefully analyzed each one. He couldn't see many alterations on it though. Most of it seemed to be factory built.

"Is that a stock rifle? Have you modified it at all?"
