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

[username sucks]

Roland stood on guard for a few more seconds as the other bar patrons talked, slowly lowering his hand when he realized that they didn't plan to attack him. Now slightly more at ease, he walked over to the bar and took a seat, not making any effort to talk to the butterfly/bug people.

"What do you mean?" Seras asked as she folded her arms over her chest.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus, who had otherwise been standing silently, bristled when Sophia mentioned creating Phazon and shot her a glare, though she wouldn't notice through the helmet. "No." She said, sharply and forcefully.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Matilda didn't reply, as she had started focusing on creating her magic sword, around her cane.

 

[Zepherus14]

"So what can I get for you today, sir?" The barkeeper said as he finished up with what he was doing and went to see what Roland wanted, the old guy giving him the eye like he was peering into Roland's thoughts and feelings.

[hr]

"No? No what?" Sophia asked hesitantly as she looked to Samus, not even sure if Samus was talking to her or someone else.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"We cannot create or go looking for any Phazon. It is too dangerous." Samus' words came a little too quickly for her words to not come from personal experience.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

After Matilda had formed the sword, she turned towards Sophia and asked, [color=006d5b]"Mind helping me show Seras what I mean?"[/color]

 

[Zepherus14]

Sophia slowly raised her heads up like she was being accused of something with how fast Samus sent her reply. "Okay okay! Geez, I'm sorry I asked." Sophia exclaimed, feeling like she'd been scowled not to open the cookie jar when said jar was just a regular mundane container. "How was I supposed to know."

"Oh, uh, what do you want me to do? I wasn't really paying attention to you guys' conversation Matilda, what do you need me to do?" Sophia looked over to Matilda's way, but kept her arms and body right where they were.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus was quiet for a second, then looked away a bit. "I... Sorry, I lost my temper there a little..."

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=006d5b]"Just let me stab you. It won't do any damage at all."[/color] Matilda said, raising the sword.

 

[Zepherus14]

"It's, O-Kay?" Sophia answered back, very much confused by Samus' 180 on the subject. Looking back to Matilda as she raised the sword, Sophia's eyes widened as she looked at the blade. "You want to stab me with a that!? W-Why?!"

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus was about to explain herself a bit when Matilda stated she wanted to stab the ferret girl, which made Samus look over in silent shock.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=006d5b]"To show that my magic can be perfectly safe."[/color] Matilda explained.

 

[Zepherus14]

"But why do you need to ask me to do it?! I'm a ferret, not a guinea pig!" Sophia answered back, her tone sounding more like she wasn't necessarily underestimating Matilda's magic, but more not wanting to get stabbed with a sword. Truth be told, most ordinary people wouldn't line up to get stabbed by a sword.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=006d5b]"Because I know this won't hurt you, because you're good. But if I used it on someone who isn't good, they'd get really hurt."[/color] Matilda replied.

 

[Zepherus14]

"I-I still don't know if this is such a good idea." Sophia said, still having her arms raised. "It's not that I don't trust you, but come on! I don't want to be stabbed by anything, much less a sword." Sophia protested, Matilda wouldn't need to have her powers to know that Sophia would rather not have a try at that sword, even if Matilda thought everything would work out.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=006d5b]"Well... does anyone else want to volunteer?"[/color] Matilda asked, lowering the the sword.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus said nothing, wanting to trust Matilda but not entirely sure of her claim.

OoC: Off for the night.

 

[username sucks]

[color=01A9DB]"Graf. The strongest you have."[/color] Roland replied to the Bartender. He looked into the bartender's eyes as well, trying to get a sense of the man's character, as he wanted to avoid another incident like the last time he stopped at a tavern.

Alain walked up to Matilda and the others, sand on his clothes and hair and a tired look on his face as if he just woke up after falling asleep on the beach. "Someone needs a volunteer for something?" Alain asked before letting out a long yawn.

OOC: dunno why Alain's color is messed up.

The sisters completed the finishing touches on the sand castles and decided to head inside the ship to wash up.

"What's all the commotion about?" EMily asked as her sisters went on to the showers.
