We Are Our Avatars VI (Closed for Good)

[Saltyk]

"No, they are claiming to have some greater nobility. But what they do isn't noble. It's simply cowardice. They may never find a way home. This may well be their home. But they refuse, even after weeks to acknowledge anything in this world as something worth seeing. Worth saving." Savranth replies to Grace.

He looks to Charlotte. "Funny. I was noticing how much your boyfriend there does exactly that. He says he doesn't want to get 'completely' involved five minutes after saying that he won't get involved. And that is after getting in a fight with a person of this world. He simply wants to hold himself above others. But I've seen nothing worth praising. Just a man who thinks he's better than everyone. Above everyone. He wants to manipulate and push everyone. For his own goals. For science. To sate his perverse curiosity. If you think he is 'right', you are as lost as he is."

He turns his back on them. "If you want to pretend to hold onto this pathetic illusion of not being involved or not being completely involved, I won't stop you. But don't think I will ever listen to any of the nonsense that you vomit like so much garbage. Like the flies that lie dead around us."

[hr]

"Okay." Rica says as she starts unpacking her own supplies.

 

[Chungus]

"I know not. Perhaps Xiphatian ships do sail when Legaian do not, and besides, Shaintaio is a great distance away from where the Wild Lands lie, so perhaps it is a posibility we can go unhindered." Loki answered.

 

[Wackymon]

Grace sighed, "You know, perhaps we should quit fighting and get to a doctor?" she asks them, "It's pointless, in my eyes. She doesn't want to join, she doesn't care, she'll join in inevitably, so just smile and nod at them." she said.

 

[Drakmorg]

Jessica rounded another corner as she ran away from Sophia, then stopped and leaned against the wall she had just run past. Oh where do I go?! Where do I go She thought as she desperately tried to figure out a destination to leave to. Hearing Sophia shout, she started to feel curious, but didn't bother to look back. Why did she want me to stop?

 

[Furioso]

Rita nodded "I hope so, Port Letosh really got me annoyed. Where would be find a Xiphatian port then?"

[hr]

Envy chuckled as he approached and picked up the body of Icarus "Oh don't worry, I know I'm involved. But if we're all through here, I'll see to it that this guy gets a burial." he started to walk off

 

[Wackymon]

Grace nods, and comments, "I'll be at the grave later." she says, Tedd in her hand.

OoC: I'm off to bed. @Salt, do to Death as you like.

 

[Saltyk]

"Oh, I know. The thing is, to pretend otherwise is to lie to everyone. Including themselves. I offered to allow them to help decide what to do with this city, but they'd rather NOT get involved in the decision making process. I guess we shouldn't expect them to get involved in the process of eating, either." Savranth said, putting his hand back to his broken arm to heal it once again, to numb the pain.

OoC: You know you would think these three would be concerned about the wounded. Especially Noel... Mothers instinct and all that.
You'd also think they would have some begrudging respect for a person who fought even while badly injured.

 

[Wackymon]

Grace sighs, "Guys, can you please stop arguing and just get to a hospital of healer?" she says.

OoC: I'm off to bed now

 

[Zepherus14]

Sophia could still hear that Jessica wasn't running any more, although she wasn't sure if she was walking still or not. "Why are you acting like that?!" She shouted. "I thought we were friends?" Sophia wasn't really in the state to actually chase after Jessica.

 

[Chungus]

"You and I both. As for a Xiphatian port, I know not where we might find one. No such place is marked on the map. We should stop in Winterhorn and ask. I wish to know about some other matter that likely can be found in the library there, so I wish to go there regardless."

 

[Furioso]

"Makes logical sense, it would be the best place to get some info after all."

[hr]

As Grace and Tedd followed Envy, he turned to them "Don't worry, I'll make sure he gets buried. You two should help tend to the wounded, maybe you have a healing thingy in your pocket? Or maybe you can help them fly to a healer?

 

[CmmdrRosh99]

@Salty: But once again, he's acting like a prick.

Charlotte suddenly appeared infront of Savranth and slapped him across the face, as another Charlotte appeared and kicked him in the balls from behind. Both were extremely hard and sudden without recourse.

"One: Not my boyfriend. My 'boyfriend' if you want to know is dead. Two: Can you really see what the person he is? Can you 'hear' him? Humans are like eggs... We have a hard exterior to keep the yolk of our humanity hidden. But you... No, you let your yolk get tainted by this war and world, developing your own conscious. For your idea of 'right'. And that's fine. That's ok... But have you EVER thought of even trying to find out their idea of 'right'? No, by your answer, you have not."

The two Charlottes disappear as she was still standing by Noel and Kyosuke. "Now I understand why they are so reserved. So organized with their own 'hearing' and thoughts to themselves. It's because of people like you, attacking them because you simply don't or won't bother with understand them! With understanding anything but your own bias whether it was granted to you by Some Arbitrary consciousness Like you Talking that You know people right from bat!"

"You don't know me... You don't know her... Or him. You're not evening willing to listen to that story because you are so jaded by your own bias to even listen. That's what creates unnecessary fighting. Because people aren't willing enough to listen. Just like you are doing right now."

Noel's eyes flashed for a second as she turned away. "I sped up the healing process around your ribs via the water transport in your cells, speeding up cell mitosis and ATP transfer. You'll feel better by late tomorrow. I'm saddened by Charlotte's words... But they are indeed true. The same prejudices that we had at home exist here as well. And by people that aren't willing to hear us out in a different world. [sub][sub][sub]We are indeed alone.[/sub][/sub][/sub]"

Kyosuke shrugged. "[sub][sub][sub]What's the purpose of being alone?[/sub][/sub][/sub] I have nothing more to say. What they said pretty much took anything what I was going to say."

 

[DotSlash]

Rex slowly rises off of the ground, still pretty beat up, black blood dripping from his arm and down his face. [small] "God... damn it..." [/small]

[hr]

Yukino rises back up, her wounds almost healed up. She looks at the pile of ashes that used to be Icarus and sighs before joining the group.

[hr]

Ness walks outside of the hotel and looks up at the sky for a moment. "...Maybe I've relaxed a little too much... I still want to see those Wild Lands... Maybe I should learn a little more about them before I go..." After musing to herself for a few moments, she starts to walk through Lakewest toward the city limits, where she last parked her car. I hope that those guys back in Rockbyrd are doing alright... Ah... Echo and Holly are here as well, I can't stay at the library all that long...

 

[Drakmorg]

"Y-You still consider us friends?" Jessica called over to Sophia, though she didn't make any moves to step around the corner and face her. "I thought after...well...you looked so disgusted by me...I just assumed you never wanted to see me again. So...I was trying to be considerate..." She added, trying to get her thought process across to Sophia.

 

[CmmdrRosh99]

The three then left as Kyosuke and Noel's images flashed strangely with a holographic-like shuddered as Charlotte continues to walk away, a few tears running down her face.

OOC: Night. And @Salty's character attacking mine is working to expectations to my characters.

 

[Wackymon]

OoC: Okay, FINAL POST!

"Stop fighting!" Grace shouts, smacking them both upside the head, "Sorry, but you're both acting like idiots." she says, turning to Savranth, "You are acting like a asshole,"
Tedd turns to Noel and Charlotte, "And you guys sound like you're teaching a sermon crossed with some swinging and participating, which I believe is what you said you wouldn't do."
Grace walks away, following Envy.
Why do they just not be quiet... she mutters.

 

[Saltyk]

"All I heard was a bunch of vomit." Savranth replied, as he walked off. "Thanks for the aid in the healing, but shouldn't you stop? That's getting involved in the problems of this world. And lord knows, you are just like Icarus. Standing high above the mere mortals beneath your feet. You shouldn't ever get involved."

OoC: @Rosh: With all due respect. Your characters are the pricks. Rather than try to understand him or offer to aid at all, they simply stand there claiming to not want to help. From his point of view, they are just as bad as Icarus. In many ways, worse. At least Icarus could be argued would help people in the long run. They seem only to want to help themselves. And Kyosuke is the worst of them all. It's sad, I liked them before he was introduced...

 

[Chungus]

OoC @Ness: You know Persephone will go "Y U no look after my niece, even though I can't be bothered to do it myself?!", right?

"Then our next stop is decided. Although, even if it was not the plan to go there, we should regardless, as the hour grows late, and Winterhorn is the settlement closest to our current location. Perhaps you can test that theory of yours while there, as if I recall, there is a room where stray magics are annulled."

 

[FPSfanatic]

Both Marcus and Lyra head deeper into the forest, Marcus scanning with his heat vision, Lyra looking through her scope, which presented the vision through it.
[hr]
Xyleena began walking around a loose definition of the campsite, skull gently roving across the ground, as if she was smelling for something.

 

[Furioso]

OoC: @Nail, how big was that training room anyways

"Excellent idea. I can't remember if it was big enough, but that would be the perfect testing ground." said Rita as she walked

[hr]

Stopping on the edge of the city, Envy turned around to face any that were following him. "Well then, no place to bury him here, I'll have to do it on land." and with that he fell backwards off of the city, still holding Icarus.
