WAOA Arena

[Kirke]

Time slowed down as the shells flew against the Meta, and then stopped completely before any of them could find their mark. The Meta quietly walked over to his bruteshot and yanked it out of the ground. He reloaded, then time sped up again and the Meta was charging at Ragnar from a completely different angle, launching a stream of grenades as he closed in.

OoC: @Dot: I wouldn't call it blatantly invading someone's privacy to close and lock a door that is slightly open. In fact, if there was a sleeping person inside I would call it doing that person a favour so that not just anybody can come in and do who knows what.

"A few days." Kenna said.

 

[Chungus]

"Right. Could you tell me a little bit more about things generally go around here?" Eddie asked as he moved back to the couch, and sat down on it after taking the battle axe form his back, and setting it next to his guitar. "And also why it is this place looks like someone dropped a bomb on it?"

 

[Random berk]

OOC: I forgot about that damned time stop thing...

Ragnar couldn't get to his feet in time to evade the grenades properly, so he instead rolled hard to his right- into one of the deep rock pools of the arena.

 

[DotSlash]

@Kirke: Differences in opinion here then. Sure, closing the door from the outside or something is fine, but don't walk in randomly and lock it for them. That easily could've been seen as rape-y if someone else saw Bruce doing that.

Pix chuckled a bit. [color=80bb00] "A little more time and you could've done a lot more damage to him. But small steps, I guess." [/color] She sat herself down on the ground and sighed a bit, speaking in a lower tone. [color=80bb00] "But I'm guessing that's gonna be a lot easier to do once you start teaching me this alchemy stuff. I'm guessing you're going to wear me and make it look like you're doing the actions when its actually me doing them, right?" [/color]

 

[Kirke]

The Meta leaped onto Ragnar with a stab, splashing water around.
OoC: @Dot: He didn't walk into the room, he leaned in, set it to locked mode and then closed it.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Pretty simple. We chat, we fight, and that's about it. There are some rules though." Kenna leaned forward. "We have to fight at least once a week, and apparently whoever's the best fighter at the end of all this gets a wish and a ticket to anyplace and any time they want to go. As for that last one, there's been a few near-fights in here and I guess the butler hasn't gotten round to cleaning it yet."

Ragnar twisted the bruteshot aside with an outside block, forcing the MEta's hands to one side before seizing them and holding them. Trapping the Meta in an improvised armlock, Ragnar rolled so that he was able to sit on top of Meta with a knee in his chest and his arms pinned. Under Ragnar's weight, the two armoured warriors began to sink into the silt at the bottom of the pool, the Meta's faceplate completely underwater.

 

[Chungus]

"Doubtful, given how utterly meek and inexperienced I am." Solaris responded, wrapping her arms around her waist. Her tone of voice changed when she described her supposed combat effectiveness, speaking with a more sarcastic tone that instance. "The best I can do is have unfortunate accidents happen." Once Pix mentioned alchemy, Solaris nodded. "Yes, exactly that. You'll need to have a transmutation circle somewhere on your body, however. If you can't alter your textures to meet this requirement, we'll have to draw one on you." She answered, then paused. "Oh, and speaking of, we'll need to do the same with my tattoo, and the nodes on my gloves. They're the transmutation circle which I need to preform my own alchemy."

After Kenna gave him the run down on the rules in the arena, Eddie nodded after taking a swig from the bottle. "Alright, good to know. Thanks. I'm planning on sticking around for a little myself, to find out who brought me here and how if nothing else." He said, glancing up to the screen momentarily, then looking back to Kenna. "That part 'bout the wish sounds a little sketchy if you ask me, though. In fact, they must keep a farm nearby, 'cause, boy, I smell bullshit."

 

[DotSlash]

Pix tilted her head. [color=80bb00] "" Snarky.... So she's hiding something...? "Keeping a circle on me shouldn't be a problem..." [/color] As she said this, small script like writing appeared in the puddle of goo in the area closest to Solaris that read "Fine control's something I can do... though it takes a bit of focus to keep it up." [color=80bb00] "It'll probably be a lot easier for me if you just draw the circle into me... once we actually get to learning everything." [/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Whether the wish is true or not, I don't wanna get in the bad books of whoever runs this place and we get healed after every match here. You can die and still come back in top shape, I've seen it happen."

 

[Chungus]

Solaris glanced down towards the text appearing in Pix's puddle, and chuckled lightly. "My. If we were anywhere but here, I bet that ability of yours must be a blessing." She said, looking back up to Pix's face. "Noted. We'll only need three, so don't worry about being covered in a collection of scribbles."
[hr]
"Come back after death, huh? Yeah, I've had that happen before. Still hurt like there's no tomorow, though. Hell, I'm not sure which was worse, the dying, or the being put back together... So, yeah, I'll try to avoid that." Eddie commented, then paused to take another swig from the beer.

 

[Drakmorg]

Once they had noticed Ragnar had now taken his homicidal rampaging into the Arena, Lapis, Jerrog, and Luistorg had all seemed to lose their tension and now idly talked among one another. Being reminded by Kenna that they were being forced to fight for all intents and purposes, Lapis sighed and stood up. She walked over to where Kenna and Eddie were conversing, them being the only others ones she could see in the lounge, and asked, "Pardon me, but would either of you care to take part in combat against either myself or my comrades? We've yet to have a fight here, you see, so since it's required, we have no other option." She motioned over towards Jerrog and Luistorg who both continued sitting in the corner, Jerrog giving a jaunty wave back, and Luistorg having his nose too far buried in a book to notice.

 

[Random berk]

OOC: @Kirke: I'm about to fall asleep. Shall we time bubble?

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Same here. I'm just saying that you're not really at risk here, so no need to worry about that." Kenna turned to Lapis, noting the bunny ears. "sorry, but I've had three fights in a row. I need a break."

 

[Chungus]

OoC @Berk: Wuss! Ö

Eddie gave a thumbs up to Kenna, then looked up to Laspis as she approached and spoke. He blinked exegeratedly as he wondered how he managed to overlook the tall bunny-eared woman and her two equally odd-looking companions. "Sure, I'll rumble. Doesn't really matter to me against who." He answered with a nod. "You guys wanna lay down some ground rules first, though? 'Cause I don't really want to cut loose against strangers."

 

[DotSlash]

Pix sighed a bit in relief. [color=80bb00] "Being a big gooey sketchpad was always one of my bigger fears. I'm glad that's not gonna be the case." [/color] Pix said jokingly as the writing melted back into goo before Pix took on more of a somber face. [color=80bb00] "Sure, it's nice... but not exactly a blessing either, neither here or my homeworld. You can kinda guess how people react to seeing living slime try to walk into their towns and strike up a friendly chat." [/color]

[hr]

Suddenly, Carmen strolled her way into the lounge and made her way toward the bar, giving the people currently inside a small wave as she did.

 

[Chungus]

"Something along the lines of "Die xeno scum!", I imagine. Us humans can be such simple minded creatures... It's practically laughable." Solaris responded with a neutral expression. Thoughts ran through her head as she noted Pix's expression, although she voiced none of them. "Couldn't you alter the texture and colours of your body to make yourself look more human, however?"
[hr]
As Carmen entered the lounge, Eddie noted her entrance from the corner of his eye, and narrow his eyes momentarily as he glanced towards her, before looking back up to Lapis.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Kenna waved at Carmen automatically as she came in, but after realising who it was, stopped waving. She looked away from the demoness, trying not to engage her.

OoC: Sorry, but I gotta go. Night.

 

[Drakmorg]

Lapis nodded back to Kenna. "Quite understandable. Even the most stalwart of warriors require rest."
Lapis smiled warmly back at Eddie upon hearing he accepted her request. "Splendid! Now, which of us would you care to duel? Or would you mind if it were all three of us?" She looked up and rested her pointer finger against her chin. "As for rules, we would obviously prefer to not test if these hearings of simply coming back to life if one dies are true or not."
Lapis failed to notice Carmen as she came in, though Jerrog gave Carmen a wave in return as he spotted her.
