We Are Our Avatars VI (Closed for Good)

[Outisakanobody]

"I've been thinking...I've got a family and a home to get back to. I can't be wasting time away from them." Marston said slowly as he looked off at nothing, slowly petting his horse's neck. "I need to get back. If siding with you and your people can get me home, well...Well then that's what I'll do." he continued.

 

[Saltyk]

"Are you sure about that? You seemed to avoid conflict before." Savranth asked Marston.

[hr]

If Yukino looked around the first floor, she would find a map on the wall near the door.

[hr]

"Oh, let them fight. It matters not to me." Soto says over his shoulder. After a moment he adds, "Besides, my specimens are all applicable to these conflicts. They are superior creatures."

 

[DotSlash]

@Nail: "I'm not going to do that... Trilby might however..."

Yukino stopped at the map and tried to take a closer look, making a few mental notes of places.

 

[Chungus]

"A spell not aimed at any one person, of course. I should merely serve to show this is a dragon like no others." Loki answered then paused. "I think will retire for the night, however. If you do not yet feel like resting, we still need a amount of wolfsbane and mandrakes."

OoC: I'm off now.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"I'd like to find some other way, but, like I said, that would take time I just don't have." Marston said to Sav with a bit of a grimace.

 

[Wackymon]

The creature, deciding that it was time to go and continue trying to fix the golem, continues to leave the city, and eventually leaves.

OoC: Off to bed!

 

[Furioso]

Wanting to please her master, Rita headed to areas near the mountain with foliage, looking for the plants described by Loki.

[hr]

"But it SHOULD matter to you Doctor. Xiphatia has taken the defense base. They could reach here eventually. And if they do... they may destroy your glorious creations. I have heard rumors among the Xiphatians, they think you are to blame for the creature that attacked Everwood. They will not be kind to you... they won't understand, and will never understand your work, especially with a rumor like that going around. You should be more proactive in aiding Legaia. Think about it, if your creations end up being the key factor to our victory you will be praised as a hero, and be given anything you could ever need to finish your work." Replied Envy

 

[Outisakanobody]

@Nail: "I'm not going to do that... Trilby might however..."

We should really get Yukino in on this. She can just attack the base, make a clone of herself disguised as Tao, then get her smuggled out and break herself out at a latter date. And that's only one option.

 

[Furioso]

OoC: @Salty, added a sentence into what Envy was saying

 

[Saltyk]

"Fair enough." Savranth replied. "Happy to have you aboard, then. Maybe that would show that we have some ability to ally even despite differences in abilities..."

[hr]

Yukino would of course see...

Spoiler: This

[hr]

"Bah, what need to I have of being seen as a hero. And the government already gives me plenty to complete my work. I'm given one of the largest budgets in the entire Ministry of Science, if not the largest. Why would I need more? My works are already serving the military. That's what the GRUNTS are." Soto replied. "And why would they think one of my creations attacked one of their towns?"

OoC: @Outis: Yeah, because Yukino being wanted in both nations. That couldn't ever backfire!

 

[DotSlash]

We should really get Yukino in on this.

And then afterward, we have an awesome ass chase scene or something. I'd love it. Thing is Yuki's got no reason to go to Lakewest... yet.
@Salt: Well, Yuki could just run around disguised... (in Xiphatia, at least...)

[hr]

Yukino looks at the map and sighs before noting the different cities nearby. [color=bb66bb] "That reminds me... Ness and all those others were all gung-ho about 'ending the war'. So where the hell are they now? ...Tch, that's just like that fedora-wearing *****, all talk, no action." [/color] She took a look at Lakewest, and began to exit the base, walking in that general direction. [color=bb66bb] I'm gonna drag that ***** into this. I've had enough of her riding my coattails.. [/color]

 

[Furioso]

OoC: Well, Envy could break Tao out... but that would end up with Tao having a... rather large bounty with what I'm thinking of

Envy shrugged "Rumor has it that the creature called out your name. I'm sure it's just some Xiphatian propaganda, but... some are out for your blood."

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Yeah. Let's get something straight though. This isn't me joining any army. This is just an...exchange of favors." Marston said to Sav as he looked at him and spoke very seriously.

OoC: @Outis: Yeah, because Yukino being wanted in both nations. That couldn't ever backfire!

If you'll all allow me to be a callous bastard for a second: That's not my problem.

Thing is Yuki's got no reason to go to Lakewest... yet.

"Hey Yukino, there's a good chance for a fight in this city."

"I'm there."

 

[Saltyk]

"Fine. If that's how you want to see it. But I'd rather have an ally then a person asking for favors. I can't promise you'll get home, even if you help us. Or if there is a way to send you home." Savranth replied. "It's not like we just have people appear here all the time. As long as you understand that, we'll see what we can do."

[hr]

"And how do you know all these things? You said you heard it in Xiphatia..." Soto asked Envy.

 

[DotSlash]

@Outis: Well I might as well let Yuki go nuts then. And that's valid, it ain't your problem, and I don't have a problem with her constantly defending herself.

Yukino seemed to look up in the sky for a moment as she continues. [color=bb66bb] ...Something... is taunting me.... ...and it's in that city... [/color]

[hr]

Ness hummed a bit as she read, sinking into the couch a bit.

She starts to dream a bit.

Spoiler: Flashbacks!

Two young girls are working on something together. They both seem to be smiling and enjoying themselves, both of them not much older than 5... and yet sparks can be seen flying left and right. Soon enough next to an intricate tower of blocks, the girls finish completing a small robot. It beeped and whirred loudly as it slowly began to move its legs.

The two girls gave each other a hug as their creation hobbled across the room. One girl had pale blue eyes and long blonde hair. The other had vibrant gold eyes with long, disheveled green hair. The two seemed to love what they did... until the robot smashed into their tower, sending it falling to the ground. The blonde girl almost started to cry before the other tapped her shoulder and shook her head.

[color=118811] "Don't worry, Vanessa!" [/color] The girl said happily. [color=118811] "Now we can build it even bigger!" [/color] Ness smiled happily as she and the other girl slowly began to build the tower back up, piece by piece...

 

[Furioso]

Rita kept looking

[hr]

"Naturally, it's easy. Just find some Xiphatian style clothes and you blend right in. Most rumors are useless, but every now and then you get a gem of info about some troop movements or other such tidbits." replied Roy

 

[Outisakanobody]

"The general said otherwise. That I wasn't the first person to show up unannounced." Marston said. He saw Yukino walking away and was curious about her. "You know what's up with that woman?" he asked Sav.

 

[Saltyk]

"You must have misunderstood. Others have shown up before you, like that girl. But not in our history. It's not like we have a long storied history of people showing up from other worlds. We maybe able to send you back, with some work, but right now, I doubt anyone would be able or willing to try." Savranth explained to Marston.

[hr]

"I would think that they would notice that you can't use magic. The people there use it for everything, you know. Besides, you waste your time. Obviously any work I do will have military applications." Soto replied.

 

[Outisakanobody]

Marston was rather angered by Sav's statement, not really angry at him, but angry at not being able to get home. "Fantastic." he muttered as he untied his horse.

 

[Furioso]

"Nah, as long as you don't get into any situations that would require using magic it works like a charm. And I didn't mean to offend Doctor, I'm just interested in your work."
