The Society of Justice: A Super Hero Roleplay

"Sure why not, Lillian and Requiem both have a working knowledge of the suits so she can do most of the minor stuff while me and Requiem handle anything major. You can always help Lil with the rewiring of the display, shouldn't be anything too hard. The worst part will be keeping it from any kind of clutter." Richard replied, he would wait a while to fully heal before doing anything.

"I don't know what that means but I'll do it," Garrus said, lifting himself out of the bed. His legs almost gave out once he put weight on them, but he quickly steadied himself.

"It's not like it'll be that hard....right?"

 

[blaze96]

Richard decided to stand up as well as Lillian.

"Just do as she says and you'll be fine." Richard replied as he started to walk back to his room with the suit that had been taken off. The other pieces were already there and Lillian set about finding the wires for the display. Richard walked down the stairs and looked around before finding Requiem.

"We're going to get started repairing the armor. My secretary and Garrus will be helping us."

 

[tsatoma]

Requiem beeped excitedly, following Richard back into his room. He looked over the suit and assessed the damage, figuring out what he could do.

"And that is my adopted brother," Garrus told Lillian, looking over her shoulder before asking, "So what should I do?"

 

[blaze96]

Lillian looked over the display and into the arm of the gauntlet, she took the torn wires out of the gauntlet and off of the back of the display. She laid them so the frayed ends touched before speaking.

"Strange life you lead, family you have, and company you keep. On the topic of what we need to do however, we need wires of the same length and type so we can reconnect this display. After we get the right sizes we need to reattach both ends and carefully reattach the display to the gauntlet before testing it to make sure it is securely connected." Lillian replied as she looked everything over.

"While they are doing that Requiem, we need to fix the damage done by Paul Dagger's explosions and asses and fix any water or electrical damage done by Undertow and my electrocuting of the two of us. So mostly fixing the armor, replacing damaged circuits, and probably getting a new coat of paint on." Richard said after her, both Lillian and himself immediately setting to work afterwords.

 

[tsatoma]

"Okay that doesn't sound that bad," Garrus said as he followed her orders and searched for the wires needed. "So...Lillian. Once all this is over and I come back to the Society would you be interested in perhaps having dinner with me?"

Requiem made a few beeping sounds, a symbol of a heart showing up on his visor as he pointed at Garrus and Lillian before getting to work helping out Richard.

 

[blaze96]

"Already asking me out on a date? Well I can't say I dislike the boldness, so sure." She replied somewhat jokingly. Richard replied quietly enough that neither Lillian or Garrus would hear them.

"Yea, I was there when it first started. It's good for her at least, no idea about Garrus. She'll have an excuse to get out more, and it can't hurt her to have a relationship. Unfortunately having her work for me doesn't leave her a ton of time for a personal life, being my secretary is rather twenty four seven employment. I try to do what I can, but this will be good for her."

 

[tsatoma]

"Yes!" Garrus said quietly, mentally patting himself on the back. He handed Lillian some wires as he pulled out a few more telling her, "Well I'll be sure to come back as quickly as I can. I really look forward to it."

Requiem beeped again, showing multiple hearts this time on his visor. He beeped loudly to get Garrus' attention before giving him a thumbs up.

 

[blaze96]

"And I shall be waiting with held breath and a chaste look for my darling to come home. Honestly though, it should be nice." She replied as she set to work.

"Alright Requiem, focus on this so we can get it over with. You really should consider getting English programmed into you, or at least the display. It would make communication so much easier if you simply could converse in our language. You could also teach us yours and then you could talk in beeps and we could still understand what you were saying." Richard set about removing destroyed circuit boards and cut wires as he spoke.

Once the last of her armour had been removed, Katie simply sat in the gardens and waited for the call to action... Or, well, something. She needed to take her mind off Jason. Perhaps... yes, that would distract her for long enough. Getting the details right in particular would be good for her creative side.

Katie got up, gestured to a few spots on the ground and caused little hedge sprigs to erupt from them. She stopped in front of one and beckoned to it. The plant erupted into life, growing to her height exactly. Katie began to gesture in a similar manner to an artist painting, and the hedge responded. Soon enough, Katie had created a topiary figure of herself standing in a stance that suggested she was ready for combat.

She began to work on the other hedges she had sprouted, beginning to form one into a life-sized replica of Garrus next.

Alister waited around the Promenade for Tommy's sister to arrive. The wait had been agonizing. He started to notice just how much he was stressing over this sword, and wondered whether it was really worth it. A flood of memories from the trip to acquire the sword assured him that yes, it was very much worth it. In the meantime, he tried to think of something, anything take his mind off the apparent fact that half the team hated him. It was rather hard to do, as he was caught up thinking "Why?"

Jason slowly made his way to his room, tuning out the voices and actions of his friends as he walked past them. Reaching his room, he closed the door behind him, leaning his back against it before slowly sliding down it, putting his head into his arms.

"Think you'll be able to get over her?" Erebus asked.

"NO!! I surely doubt I will be able to 'get over her', Ero!" He angrily yelled back, picking his head up from his arms, taking notice of what remained of his room. His frustration towards the breakup soon turned into rage towards Omoi and his plans. He jumped up, punching and kicking at whatever his hands and feet came in contact with. Throwing and smashing whatever he got his hands on in a flurried rage. Suddenly, he fell to his knees, bellowing out a loud, antagonizing roar as his mask began to cover his face, showing the long, zig-zagging crack enlongating on opposite ends, beginning to glow along with all the other cracks in the armor.

"Calm the fuck down! I'm starting to...lose...control..." Erebus pleaded, his voice beginning to fade from Jason's mind.

In return, Jason shouted another pained roar before running and leaping out of his already smashed window, quietly landing on the front lawn. Without another word, he bolted from the Promenade grounds, speeding into the night.

 

[tsatoma]

A beep was Requiem's reply to Richard as he started to take out any pieces that were beyond repair, tossing them aside. He looked at some of the dented parts of the armor, moving them to the side.

"It will be nice. I guarantee it," Garrus replied to her.

 

[CounterAttack]

Katie spun at the sight of Jason landing in the gardens. By the time she had registered the fact that her ex-boyfriend was there, he had sprinted off. "What the..." she murmured. It seemed he might have taken the break-up badly after all. She left the Garrus replica half-finished and hurried into the Promenade, looking for someone to inform. Katie cursed inwardly: now she'd have to explain it all to the others.

Eventually she found Richard, Garrus and Requiem working to repair Richard's suit, accompanied by someone she remembered being named Lillian. Katie hadn't introduced herself to the latter. She hovered nervously for a moment before speaking. "Um, guys? I think you should know something... Jason's gone. He ran out of the Promenade a few minutes ago."

 

[CounterAttack]

Escapist ate my post.

 

[blaze96]

Richard replied as he continued working.

"Well seeing as we had one beep for yes and two beeps for no you agree. Can't do it now though, gotta fix the suit first." Lillian spoke at the same time as Richard.

"I'm sure it will be, you don't seem like the type of person to give a bad first date." Katie ran in just after her reply and Richard spoke as soon as she finished.

"What do you mean left? Actually I think the better question is how he left. Did he walk out out, run out, burst out the roof and fly off?" He listed, he hoped it wasn't one of the last two, that was never a good sign unless it was Patriot.

 

[CounterAttack]

"He jumped from his room down to the gardens and sprinted out the gate. I don't know where he would have gone," Katie answered, leaning against the doorway with one hand at her forehead. "I think I'm the one to blame for it, though. See..." She hesitated briefly before continuing. "I broke it off with him. Jason and I are no longer a couple."

 

[tsatoma]

"That would explain the running away bit," Garrus told Katie, turning away from his work for a moment, "This can be bad. We need every fighter we can get and now Jason ups and runs off on us. But at the same time if he's in a bad state of mind he might be more trouble that we don't need right now."

 

[blaze96]

Richard immediately figured something was off. He started working quicker as he spoke to them all.

"Garrus, take Katie, Alister, and Tommy and try and find Jason. We need everyone right now, do whatever it takes to find him. On the off chance he engages you all, Katie stay out of it as much as you can, let Garrus and the others try and subdue him. Lillian, don't worry about the display, help me and Requiem get the sensors back online and the armor repaired. The fuck is he thinking at a time like this? For all we know Omoi could have ambushes all over the city just waiting, and he wouldnt' stand a chance if he stumbled into one alone." Lillian immediately helped in taking out the bad components and replacing them.

 

[tsatoma]

Garrus nodded and got up, motioning for those coming with him to follow him. He walked outside to the gardens before asking Katie, "Which way did he head. We'll go that way and see if we can see him. Wish our resources weren't so scattered...hey is that a sculpture me? If it is I have to say I'm not that short."
