The Society of Justice: A Super Hero Roleplay

"Richard! Lad, good job with the robbery today!" Patriot boomed as he flew through Rich's roof in his tailored suit, brushing off some of the dust and debris. "Just wanted to drop by and say congratulations to everyone. Oh I also brought you a fruit basket! Ohh, look the strawberries are even chocolate covered...might just have one or two," Patriot said as he started to eat all the fruit in the basket.

 

[blaze96]

"Patriot, why do you need to break through the roof? There is a door." He said brushing some debris off the helmet before going back to work and taking a drink from the absinthe.

"By the way, would you mind telling me what this Union is? My suit was damaged because the robbers were trying to impress them. I must also say you usually wait far less time to gorge yourself on my food based gifts. I'm almost impressed with your willpower this time around." Richard said without turning around.

 

[tsatoma]

"I...forget why," Patriot replied to Rich's first question as he finished eating all the fruit, and quickly looked uncomfortable with the second question, "The...Union? Why I- gosh darnit!"

He was silent for a moment as he thought about what to do, "Hmmm, perhaps it would be best if I told the whole group. Tell you all at once. I guess since you guys are official now it'd be best to tell you what you'll be up against. Alright I'll go tell everyone to meet in the lounge in exactly twenty minutes! Thanks for the food by the way." With that he went to Rich's door and threw it open, breaking the hinges and causing it to fall over in the hallway as he went to go and alert the others.

 

[blaze96]

"Damn it Patriot, stop destroying my room!" Richard shouted as he left.

"Son of a *****, I'm not going to be getting any sleep tonight at this rate." Richard groused as he grabbed the bottle of absinthe and began to follow patriot out. He looked over the door, at least the hinges had been ripped from the wall and not obliterated. Though anyone flying over the promenade would have a lovely view of his room, at least a few stars were out.

"JASON! Meeting in twenty minutes!" Patriot almost yelled as he slammed Jason's door open. He walked over to the sleeping Jason and shook the bed repeatedly until it completely broke into a bunch of pieces, "Ah I see you're awake now. Good, twenty minutes! Lounge! Important!"

He then moved on to Garrus' room and busted inside. "Garrus! Lounge, twenty minutes. Important meeti- oh you're dyeing your hair again. Ah what a lovely shade of purple. I really liked it when it was blue, very nice. Oh, silly me best stop before I go into a long story of mine. Anyways, twenty minutes. Oh you also look very good Garrus, I see you've been working out, though you still haven't gotten rid of those love handles-" Patriot was then pushed out of the room by Garrus, getting yelled at by him the whole time about privacy.

"How rude, kids these days," Patriot said as he went down the hall to the next poor sap.

 

[blaze96]

Richard gave a small wave to Jason and Garrus as he stumbled by with absinthe in hand. He mumbled a quick "Hey" to Dona as he walked by and leaned against the wall in the common room.

 

[tsatoma]

Garrus went back to his bathroom and quickly showered to get the dye off before changing and heading into the lounge. He nodded at Richard and Dona as he took a seat in a rocking chair.

 

[Pm0n3y]

Jason sighed as Patriot left his room.

"Jesus Christ." He muttered, kicking pieces of the remains of the bed frame out of his way.

He lazily made his way towards the lounge, where some others were waiting.

"Shit better be important. You broke my bed, and I was having a good dream." He said with a yawn while pointing at PP!

 

[blaze96]

Richard looked at Dona from where he leaned against the wall. He partially slurred with the bottle in his hand.

"Sorry Dona, would give up my spot, but I have no spot to give." He took another drink from the bottle.

 

[tsatoma]

"Oh yay, everyone's going to be pissed off and we have a drunk here too. This is going to be a good meeting," Garrus groaned as he rocked back and forth on the chair.

"Nonsense everyone seems to be in a great mood!" Patriot exclaimed as he walked back into the lounge, taking a seat next Garrus as they waited for everyone else.

 

[blaze96]

"Yea if you had to fix a piece of high tech equipment that at the moment is completely unusable in a night. You'd want to be drunk too." Richard said before finishing off the bottle and throwing it and hitting Garrus' head.

"And don't insult me by calling me a drunk. I'm not drunk until I can't stand and don't even realize I'm slurring my speech, which won't be for a while yet."

 

[tsatoma]

"Ow fuck! I'm going to kick your ass!" Garrus yelled as he grabbed the biggest piece of the broken bottle before Patriot stood up to stop him.

"Both of you please, this really isn't the time," he said with a seriousness that few had ever seen, "Garrus sit back down, here are some tissues to stop the bleeding. Richard no more throwing bottles. Both of you understand?"

"Yeah," Garrus replied as he grabbed the box of tissues and put them on his temple where he was hit.

 

[blaze96]

"Yea sure, whatever, can we get this over with? I need to get back to working on the microprocessor responsible for targeting, fixing the display for the HUD, and I still need to remove the shrapnel from the body of the suit and helmet before actually smoothing the metal again and reapplying the paint to keep it from oxidizing. This is just a small taste of what the hell I need to do to make sure the suit is up and running again by tomorrow, and not to mention I hope to be piss drunk by the morning so just maybe not getting any sleep will be the least of my worries." Richard slurred slightly as he leaned against the wall, he wanted to get this explanation over with so he could get back to work.

 

[tsatoma]

"Well we have another five minutes before the meeting begins so you'll just have to wait," Patriot replied slightly distracted as he cleaned up some of the broken pieces of glass and tossed them into the trash in the kitchen.

'Wait another few minutes, tell them the bare basics. Maybe let them ask a few questions. I wish Cillian was here, he'd know exactly what to say. Maybe I can get Garrus to help me, boy probably knows more than me about the Union,' Patriot thought rapidly as he sat back down and waited for the rest of the group.

 

[blaze96]

"Then I'm going to go get another bottle while I wait. No reason I can't continue at least one thing while I wait, and it doesn't hurt to have a weapon in case Garrus decides he wants to commit assault or get smart again." Richard said before going back to his room and grabbing another bottle of absinthe before coming back and drinking again.

 

[tsatoma]

Garrus flipped Rich off as he left, grumbling about not being able to beat the shit out of him. "So what's the meeting about PP?" he asked, checking his head before putting on more tissues.

"Ah, yes about that," Patriot muttered as he leaned closer to Garrus so only he could hear, "It's about the Union. Seemingly the robbers earlier today were trying to impress them, and I think it'd be a good thing to let everyone else know what they're up against."

Garrus' expression changed quickly once he heard that, and he quickly asked, "How much is going to be told?"
"Oh, I'm thinking basics...but if they ask questions," Patriot started.
"Fuck don't answer them," Garrus said as he leaned back in his chair.

Katie lightly jumped down from her ledge, aided by her levitation. She could hear yelling inside. "We'd best be joining the others," she commented. "Maybe I should wheel you in; you don't look so good." She smiled at that and stepped behind Birras's wheelchair.
