We Are Our Avatars IV (Uh, closed for real now)

[Random berk]

Jacques listened to Long Fang's description then turned over and sat cross legged on the ground. He laughed weakly.
"Oh, fantastique. C'est tres BAISE FANTASTIQUE!!!" He snarled. "The parasite, the, uh, larva? Does it also have acidic blood?" As he said this he glanced around for the wheellock pistol that had failed him earlier, found it and began scooping the wet powder out of the flashpan, removing the shot and bag of blackpowder in the barrel, replacing it with fresh, dry charge.

"Those markings." Etna said, then starting pondering as to whether Kanji could even see them himself or not. Then Etna realized something was missing. "Say, whatever happened to that talking chair you carried around? Did you two get into a fight or something?" She asked, her second question sounding facetious.

@Furioso: Yep. I just didn't feel like typing out 'and then the prinnies kept arguing', and left it implied instead.

 

[Outisakanobody]

She did look rather concerned about what Fang was saying.

Long fang shrugged. "Normally, there would be nothing we could do. We do have a medical bay, so we could try removing it."

 

[Random berk]

OOC: Third last post, in case it was missed somehow.

 

[Furioso]

OoC: @Drak, oh good

"Oh him? Lets see, I hit a soldier with it. Turned out he was holding some kind of grenade. Blew a hole right through Clive. Then he screamed, there was some light, and I woke up later in the snow." Kanji said all of this with almost zero emotion.

 

[Chungus]

"What are we waiting for then?" Terra said as she stood up.

 

[FPSfanatic]

Long fang turned back to Jacques. "I, I believe so. You must understand, we never felt a need to study the hard meat, they were just something for us to hunt and kill. We know so little about it, but if I had to hazard a guess, I would say yes, it does have acid blood."

Jacques was about finished reloading his pistol when Long Fang answered him. He groaned, then rammed the shot in and stuffed the pistol into its holster
"It'll need to be taken care of afterwards then. When it comes out." He said in distant aggravation. He seemed a lot less affected by the news of the chestburster than by the attack of the facehugger, merely angry rather than sickened and in shock.

 

[Drakmorg]

"Wasn't Clive a girl-chair? At least, that's what it sounded like." Kinda wondered about that. "Anyway, that's too bad. I really felt like that chair could'a gone places...so to speak." Etna said, slowly shaking her head.

 

[FPSfanatic]

Long fang examined Jacques carefully. "You are taking the announcement about your eminent rather well. Let's get moving to remove it. Better to try and fail then to sit here and wait."

 

[Furioso]

OoC: @drak, oh god dammit, I meant to put "she" not "he" oh well I'll make it work

"Perhaps it was genderless." Said Kanji, a smile across his face. He then turned to the arguing Prinnies, walked up to them, and picked one up. "Stop shouting..." he said, the runes on his hand glowing slightly

 

[CmmdrRosh99]

@All: Back... What did I miss?

Jacques stood slowly and shook his head.
"I've seen the Grim Reaper often enough in the past. Reflected in the gleam of a blade, or grinning at me from within the barrel of a cannon. He was always coming for someone else in the end. I'm not afraid of him. I've just never enocuntered him in such a... like that thing..." Jacques shuddered uncontrollably again, his mind wandering unbidden back to the facehugger's attack.

 

[FPSfanatic]

OoC: Berks character got face raped, and we are now considering the consequences of it.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that it was a facehugger who did the face raping. Kind of changes the context.

 

[Drakmorg]

"S-Sorry dood..." The prinny Kanji picked up dejectedly replied.
"You know, you aren't half bad at that." Etna said to Kanji with a chuckle.
"We were just...discussing who should break some news to Master Etna, dood."

 

[Random berk]

OOC: There basically are no consequences, but it may change his attitude -maybe- and if they can't remove it surgically, then the group is going to get one hell of a dramatic revealing of his secret.

Phoenix's HUD started back up from a slow start up wherever she was.

Jin slowly awoke up from a mediation position in the ship.

 

[Furioso]

Kanji smiled "Thank you" as he dropped the Prinny

 

[Saltyk]

"So, what exactly was that thing?" Cloud asked Long Fang.

Zack walked into the cargo hold. "Oh, Etna. Here. This belongs to you." He said, placing a gold bar back with her stash.
