We Are Our Avatars IX: Act V: The Sabotage of the Scandolous Saurian Scoundrels (Open)

[Slenn]

<color=purple>"Let's see... it's carbon, iron, molybdenum, vanadium, and tungsten. We could probably have Sara forge the trace elements such as tungsten and then mix them with the molten slag of our metals. I can have Graviton take in the densities of the metals to see what it's mostly composed of."

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"We have a lot of money as well, we could probably pay to have anything that we can't find or create forged for us."

 

[Outisakanobody]

Seras and Faro also followed the others to explore the place. Faro looked quite comfortable here.

 

[Slenn]

<color=purple>"Well, we'll see. Let's start by going to the metal yard." Gwen said, proceeding on to said yard.

 

[Outisakanobody]

Faro and Seras decided to follow. "Perhaps I should do the talking? I speak the language." Faro offered as he walked.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus followed the other, looking to Faro. "You local?"

 

[Outisakanobody]

"No. I'm from Cuba. But it's the same language." Faro explained, assuming Samus was familiar with Earth geography.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Cuba?" Samus asked. "I'm sorry, it's been a while since I've been earthside before all this started."

 

[Slenn]

<color=purple>"Very good then." Gwen said, acknowledging Faro's ability to speak Spanish. <color=purple>"What is Cuba like? Do you like your home country?"

<color=purple>"Cuba is an island, south of the continental United States, where Colorado was. Although I've never been to it myself." She informed Samus.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Cuba is a country across the Atlantic ocean." Faro said to Samus.

"No. It's not a very nice place" he said to Gwen, frowning deeply.

 

[Slenn]

<color=purple>"Oh? Why is that?"

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus nodded, understanding from Gwen and Faro's joint descriptions.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Lots of poverty. I was forced into the military, which led to me being recruited by Desperado." Faro explained glibly. Seras patted him on the shoulder to try and comfort him.

 

[Slenn]

<color=purple>"That is a shame. But at least Desperado is over. Now that you're a night owl, when this is all over you could take a job during the night shift. You could be the perfect guard because you'd never get tired. Although I honesty don't know how a vampire makes a living."

 

[Outisakanobody]

"More like a night...bat..." Faro said, attempting some humor. When Gwen brought up how vampires made a living, he turned to Seras.

"Well, unfortunately, 'making a living' isn't something most vampires do. Usually they are too obsessed with eating and turning people." Seras said as she rubbed the back of her head.

 

[Slenn]

<color=purple>"Seras, if you don't mind me asking, how long have you been a vampire? Who bit you in the first place?"

 

[Outisakanobody]

Seras shivered a bit. "It's hard to tell, with all dimension hopping I've done. Maybe a year? It was my master Alucard." Seras said, seeming to lose herself in thought.

 

[Slenn]

<color=purple>"Dimension hopping? W-what?" She was a bit confused. <color=purple>"You've done this before?"

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Yup. This is the third time I think." Seras said as she continued to walk, seeming casual about the idea.

 

[Demonjazz]

I had followed this group of freaks. Had nothing better to do with my day. It was either follow them or drink more. And heaven knows that I don't need to drink anymore. Turns out two of the people were vampires. Not my favorite type of monsters. Only met a few. They tried to drink me and throw me in a ditch. They soon found themselves on the wrong end of a fire ball. I lit another cigarette and started smoking
"Why are we in this foreign country again? Wouldn't it be a better idea to go to some English speaking country?"
