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

[Zepherus14]

Sophia watched silently as Samus was picked up by Seras and walked off, a small grin coming to her face as she saw Samus' expression of embarrassment as she was lifted. With a small sigh, she looked back down at her own feet, dusting them off a bit more before she went to grab her glasses case from her bag.

The diplomat's face was a stone mask as he listened, and then spoke again.[color=3399FF]"I must remind you that we only have your word that she has committed any crimes at all. In our records, there is no account of Sophia Aethis conducting any offence aside from the ones you accuse her of. If she and her compatriots are ever shown to be a serious threat to our global security, we will takes steps to prevent them. However, it is the view of the UNCETREM that we cannot with good conscience refuse extra-terrestrials the rights we fight adamantly to maintain for our own people. If you can give us proof of her crimes, it will go a long way towards swaying the court in your favour. But make no mistake: The rule of law is sacred here above any gods, and we will enforce it with great zeal. Whatever the outcome, we will stand by it and fight to uphold the judgement."[/color]

Joel watched the others return, not saying anything because they were all likely too tired to talk.

The sisters entered Shara's ship, their heels click-clacking against the metal floor.

"We figured you might need some help with the ship, as you look exhausted." EMily said, providing human resources.

 

[Outisakanobody]

Seras brought Samus to her room then.

 

[Kirke]

You say, shaking sleep from your head, that you can manage. You only need to be awake for the landing and take-off anyway, so you will sneak a few hours sleep in.

OoC: Off to bed.

 

[Zepherus14]

[color=Haggard the Brave]"She has murdered 63 of my closest kin and countrymen?!"[/color] He roared angrily, slamming his arm on the desk again. [color=Haggard the Brave]"But even if that is not enough for you to come to your senses, even she can not lie of her foul magic. There is no question there. That above all else is reason enough for her to be put down, because that alone is enough to corrupt the fruitful bosoms of your kingdom and bring forth a new age of strife to your people."[/color]

[color=Haggard the Brave]"She has already had a taste of the power she can command with it, and now she already has taken action to harness it to her will. Waiting any longer for her to acquire more unfortunate souls under her is only suicide! Surely you can't be so blind."[/color]

Samus' room was a small affair, basically just a bunk with what few possessions she had that weren't part of her suit in a bag stuffed under the bunk. When they arrived, Samus got out of Seras' arms, climibg on the bed and sitting in a Lotus pose.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"So..." Seras said as she leaned against the wall. She wondered if should talk to Samus about Shara.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"What is it?" Samus asked Seras.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Shara...doesn't really like me..." Seras said as she looked at the ground.

 

[Slenn]

EMily sighed. "Very well then. I suppose there's nothing keeping us from picking up around here." And the sisters went ahead to find anything that needs organizing in the ship or just about anything to keep them busy while they wait.

 

[Drakmorg]

Seeing that no one appeared to be in much of a hurry to take action, Vicky sighed and stretched her shoulders a bit to try and work out a bit of the soreness. Finding that her entire ordeal had left her tired, even without needing to walk down the mountain, she sat down next to Sophia to rest.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"I noticed." Samus said. "What are you thinking?"

 

[Zepherus14]

"Hey." Sophia said as she looked over to the new arrival to the rock. "Obviously you're not feeling the best, but otherwise how are you?" She asked sympathetically, her eyes wondering a little to Victoria's backside, her glasses case in her hands.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"I'm....afraid she might try to kill me...or even Faro." Seras said, being completely honest.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus was silent for a second. "...I'll talk to her sometime. Tell me if she tries anything."

 

[Outisakanobody]

"You'll probably know if it happens. I should probably talk to everyone about it." Seras said.

 

[Drakmorg]

"Ignoring the pain from getting my ass kicked? Still not great."

Victoria replied to Sophia. Her tail flicked off in random directions at rhythmic intervals, which Sophia could clearly see while taking a gander at her bum.

 

[Zepherus14]

"I'm sorry to hear that..." Sophia frowned a little as she glanced down as she noticed Victoria's flicking tail out of the corner of her eye as she'd been looking at the spot around where Victoria had been injured. "I know there wasn't anything I could do then, but is there anyways I could help you out now?" Sophia offered, feeling guilty that she couldn't help before.

As she asked this, she took off her armless glassed from her face, putting them away in her case.
