The Pub (an open RP/ Character Workshop for any and all.)

Snipping increases lifespans.

Vanessa blinked in subtle suprise as the couple seemed to not only be on the same wavelength, but continually keeping up with their work even while holding a conversation. [color=666666] ....I guess they're the owners for a reason... [/color] Shaking off the slight awe brought on by that, the woman focused back on to the subject at hand. [color=666666] "I'd think that learning what exactly brought about all of your collective powers would be worth the time to look into." [/color] She said, tilting her head as she thought about what could have happened. [color=666666] Some massive catastrophic event? ....Divine intervention...? Aliens...? ....It's probably aliens, now that I think about it... [/color]

Now looking at Ana in a new light, the fedora girl smiled again and nodded. [color=666666] "Well... that's quite the mix of abilities.... Would it be alright if I asked for a demonstration?" [/color]

 

[Hussmann54]

[color=666666] "Well... that's quite the mix of abilities.... Would it be alright if I asked for a demonstration?" [/color]... a demonstration of SNIPPING!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

"I don't suppose it would be bad. How ever to demonstrate, you will have to trust me. As Sanguinomancy is very invasive, in order for it to work in this context, you will need to not fight it, or it will hurt."

She rubbed her hands together briskly. "Does that sound acceptable?"

 

[Captain Anon]

"A very nice name for a relatively new community don't you think? I'm afraid we cant stay though, we need to secure passage to my home world and their may be willing pilots somewhere around, our best bet is the local tavern, all sorts of people hang there"

"hm yes very subtle" I said walking with Clade after paying for an apple "ah good I could use a drink after all that, lead on then" I said as I ate said apple before gesturing that Clade should lead the way

With a single nod, Vanessa turned and stared into Ana's eyes. [color=666666] "Alright... I'll try not to fight whatever it is you end up doing." [/color]

A light tingling began to itch in the back of her head as the little voice in her head made her a little more than wary of the situation. [color=666666] She's been really nice so far, so she probably won't do something bad.... [/color]
[color=ff4599] Buuuuuut there's still the off chance this is all one big ruse, right? [/color] The voice said internally, completing the fedora girl's thoughts.
Shaking off the suggestion for the moment, she sighed and let the thoughts in her head die slowly and nodded once at Ana. [color=666666] "I'm ready." [/color]

 

[Hussmann54]

sniparoo!

Ana set her drink down.
"Alright, relax."
She set her palms flat down on the table. Soon she could feel Vanessa's blood from a few feet away. Under more nefarious circumstances, he greatest challenge would be doing this undetected. But Vanessa's open mind made the change much more simple. Soon her blood began to pump a little faster.

She takes on of Vanessa's hands and held it up to her neck.
"Feel that? That rise in your pulse? It feels a little like a cardio workout doesn't it? Your heart goes a little faster. From here, various chemical reactions can be triggered in the brain."

Ana released her.

"It is kind of a shady ability. Usually espionage is a common line of work for our type, con men and women and the likes."
She blushes a little and leans in, whispering. "I may or may not have had to pump testosterone into a few men back in my day.... A few women too." She winks.

[color=ff4599] Hoohoo~ Look at this...However small a change it was, it's working! [/color] The voice squealed in delight as Vanessa's heart rate began to slowly rise. The girl blushed a small bit as she instinctively began to take slightly deeper breaths than before.

Once her hand was placed onto her throat, she sighed softly, feeling the slightly faster drumbeat of her heart pulsing. Once she was released from the somewhat entrancing hold, the slight pink on her cheeks didn't leave her just yet. [color=666666] "That was.... delightfully odd...." [/color] She managed to say after a bit of time, only to have her face go about three shades redder as Ana whispered and winked at her. Errant thoughts that she'd normally never dream of began to slowly flood her head. [color=666666] "....O-o-oh... That.. m-must've been fun..." [/color] She said softly, her flight of fancy now taking the forefront in her head.

@Jack: I'll make a post soon. I've got quite a bit of work to do and some other posts that need to be made.

@Huss: Also as far as plots go, it would help if you could go more in depth as to what this Pub looks like, if there are other areas? I also have no idea what Anon and Clade are doing or where they're at so I'm imagining a couple of blokes in the middle of the Bar area playing Cowboys and Indians ... (I'm probably not far off the mark am I?)

I'd say to basically go with what Generic said with giving more detail about the Pub and the area.
Maybe bringing in a character/portal to take the group somewhere to do something other than just interactions.

McSnipsAlot?

"D'you girls know each other or something?" Asked FalloutSherman as Mercy took to checking on the CLONKED on the noggin One-Eyed Gauss Girl.

"Umm. No. Not exactly. I know of her but I don't know her personally but she's something of a Legend where I come from." The Medical Hare said as she started wrapping gauze around the circumference of the Gauss Girl's head and face with one hand while dumping out the contents of her travel pack, a few graphic novels finding their way to Mister Fuget's feet, the top one prominently displaying the title: The Adventures of the Red Menace and the One Eyed Gauss Girl: Jacked to the Max. The cover image displayed a Dark Heavily Armored Behemoth squaring off against two women, one of whom looked very much like the girl whose face was now covered in gauze.

"There'd always been supposition that Johnny Truant's stories had been based on reality but this - this is amazing since Lucy Black would be over 80 years old where I'm from."

This brought us back to the question as to just where Mercy Rabbit, Lucy Black and Sherman Fuget found themselves. Not only did this seem like a cross roads for all sort of dimensions, it seemed like a cross road for time as well.

"What's next intelligent telepathic Deathclaws?" Mercy quipped.

As she said that the door to the Pub closed, a reptilian tail sliding through the door as it shut.

Done

Ana leaned on the bar and looked around at the old woodwork that comprised the inside of the bar. "Well this place has been good to us." She looked around at the tables and chairs.
From the cellar there came a huge crashing sound. Boards and wood falling and breaking.
"Ana! You should come look at all this...." Nic said from downstairs.
"What does that boy have himself into now?" She said, a mix of mirth and annoyance in her voice. She wiped her hands and began to walk downstairs. She turned to look at Vanessa. "Could you be a dear and bring a light?"

As she walked downstairs, Nic was leaning up against a wall. A large hole in the brick work could be seen. On the far side, boards had been broken.
"We found something..."
Ana seemed excited. "What do you think it is?"
"Dunno" Nic turned and peered through the gap. "I remember rumors of this place having secrets."



An hour and many swings of a sledgehammer later, there was a man sized hold. Ana and Nic stepped in with a lamp lit. On the walls were weapon racks full of a vast array of arms. Firearms, edged weapons and anything inbetween.
"Wow.... this is.... different." Ana looked around.
Practice dummies and targets dotted the edges of the room as well as a table off to the side. Mannequins wearing suits of armor were on either side.

 

[DotSlash]

Moar snip.

Hearing the crash, Vanessa jolted almost immediately and hopped back a small distance, hand immediately going to her pocket again. Taking a small breath and letting it out once Ana asked her for a light, she withdrew her hand from her pocket and held her PDA in hand. After a few taps on the touchscreen, the assist light in the back of the device lit up with a brilliant glow as she nodded and followed after the bartender, still a bit wary after the smashing sound.

She blinked a bit in surprise as she shone the light around the old room. [color=666666] "...A practice room? Why would this be in a bar....?" [/color]

 

[Hussmann54]

Two scoops of snip in every box

Ana looked around for a moment and found a light switch. She flicked it on. For a second the lights flickered, almost as if they were about to fail and burnout or shatter or the likes. But they prevailed, and illuminated the room. Everything was dusty. Cobwebs from years of abandonment covered most of the equipment.

 

[DotSlash]

Snip: A part of this complete post.

Vanessa looked up at the flickering lights and the dusty training dummies scattered around. Curious, she walked up to one and quickly dusted it off, using the cuff of her labcoat sleeve as a makeshift rag. She then continued to walk around checking the condition of the dummies and observing the small armory. [color=666666] "It's almost like the former owners were making sure they were prepared for.... well, anything... Seeing the shootout that had happened upstairs, I can't really say this was a bad move on their part at all..." [/color]

Wow, I was just thinking the other day about making a new Pub thread before I found this.

The front doors of The Pub opened and a man wearing an open Hawaiian shirt and cargo shorts walked in. Most onlookers would immediately notice his mechanical right hand and left leg, in addition to his mane of dirty blond hair but as he strode towards the bar some might be able to catch a glimpse of the impressive collection of scars and tattoos which cover his chest.
"Well well well." The man says in a notably Australian accent, "I certainly didn't think I'd be seeing this old place again."

 

[Hussmann54]

A new snipper has appeared

A voice rang out from downstairs.
"Is somebody there? Ill be there in a second. Hold on."
Soon Nic appeared, covered in dust.
"Apologies for that. Busy renovating! What can I do for you?"

Meanwhile at the Headquarters of the Justice League of Snips

"Hmmmm" Ana looked around. The table was full of maps. "Most of these are of a fairly typical Earth..." She picked one up and dusted it off. "Ever been to London? It sounds like these folks were planning a trip..."

 

[Knife-28]

"Could I get a glass of whiskey." The man said as he sat on one of the bar stools, "On the rocks, if you please."

 

[Rip Van Rabbit]

Sorry for the delay! D:

We're together now. Forever. That's allllll that matters. Blame my monthly interwebz cap!

Lucy was immensely pleased, for a moment, that her fainting-friend had recovered rather quickly. At this point, she would offer a smile, but the girl's iron-forehead collided with her healing eye under the eyepatch.

Needless to say, Lucy was stunned. Not in any emotional way - ...but more in an 'oh-god-it-hurts-wwwwhhhhyyy' sort of way.

It took her a few moments to recover, she could feel something being wrapped around her head, items dropped at her feet and the back-and-forth of a conversation nearby. Catching snippets of the nearby conversation, choosing to speak once the stars disappeared.

"D'you girls know each other or something?"

"...she's something of a Legend where I come from....Johnny Truant's stories... Lucy Black would be over 80 years old where I'm from."

"What is your head made of!? Blamco, that hurt...who are you? How do you know me? Why am I a legend? What - what the heck is going on?" Lucy pleaded in a ludicrous fashion, waving her arms around and turned to look up at the stranger nearby.

"First time we've met, first time here myself. Oh, she's turning out to be such a peach..." She tried to sound scathing, but the situation was too ludicrous for her to get convincingly angry. All she could do was offer a defeated expression and a smile. "And who might you be...Enclave?"

That would certainly explain what this place was: an Enclave test. Train a few soldiers to act, spruce up part of the vault to look like a bar, monitor the Asset's behavior...

A few sizable novels were laying at her feet, picking up one of the scattered issues, Lucy glanced over the title incredulously. Most of her questions were answered in that moment: The Adventures of the Red Menace and the One Eyed Gauss Girl: Jacked to the Max.

The eye-patched woman on the cover was most definitely her...with a few enhancements. According to the illustration, Lucy's breast size had almost doubled, her armor was torn and somewhat tighter fitting...apparently this is what Johnny thought of Lucy.

Pleasingly, both females looked exceedingly fierce and capable, their respective weapon's were larger than life and Beast Mode on the cover made her rifle look like a monstrous energy cannon. All of it was extremely detailed.

It wasn't everyday that you read about 'yourself', so Lucy was somewhat absorbed, flipping through a few pages.

Glancing up at her most recent acquaintances, she hastily apologized, "Sorry sorry...been awhile since I had the chance to relax and read - relaxing might be stretching it though" Lucy shot a teasing look at the curly-haired female. "Oh, now this is more accurate...!"

Lucy flipped over the book to show a two-page illustration to both of them: The picture showed Lucy pressing her rifle in Beast Mode to Sylph's head, with Sylph pressing her wrist-blade firmly to her throat. In their off-hands, Sylph and Lucy's arms were slumped and damaged, still gripping secondary weapons that were both angled at the floor. An anti-materiel rifle for Sylph and a plasma pistol for Lucy. Both females were murderously glaring at one another...

Vanessa tilted her head a bit as she looked over the map and dusted off a bit more as she looked over it. [color=666666] ...A lot different than my world... Still, this looks interesting at least... "I can't say that I have... I've heard of an 'Earth' before but they've looked different than these maps depict. So, what kind of place is 'London' and what would make it a viable vacation spot?" [/color]
