We Are Our Avatars VIII: Interdimensional Jaunt. (Closed up, thanks for playing.)

[Chungus]

"Thanks for the concerne... Feeling really put at ease now..." Gideon muttered once the secretary hang the phone up, and ending the call himself, slipping the phone back in the right pocket of his trousers thereafter. Still not feeling he had felt when being followed, Gideon blew a small sigh. "Guess it's really gone..." He said to Franky, looking down to the ball. "What did you say happened to it? It... turned to goo?"

 

[Zepherus14]

Franky was holding his head up with one arm within the ball as he sat at the controls. "It was passing through people, and kept walking after us, and then it just kinda... started puking up stuff and then collapsed into nothing." He tried to describe it.

After a few moments a hologram appeared over the ball, lines of light coming from it in a manner that showed the ball was the source of it. "It looked like this." He said, showing the pic of the creature to Gideon.

 

[HatchyHatch14]

Fredrick nodded. [color=F87217]"Right then maybe we should go back and take some rest, think we deserve after today's happenings"[/color] he said with a smile.

Mary moved closer to Fredrick and held onto his arm once more, giving a single nod ot Fredrick as if to say "that's sounds like a good idea"

OoC: Night!

 

[Chungus]

"Passing through people? Guess it was definitely a ghost then... Always thought those things were myths. Learning that they weren't this way's a thing I could've gone without though." Gideon commented, chuckling slightly near the end. When Franky brought up the hologram of the image he had taken, Gideon looked it over, wincing slightly. "Ugh... Looks as scary as it felt... I wonder why it disappeared like that, though."

 

[Outisakanobody]

"He said he had to do something." Axton said.

 

[DotSlash]

As the two agreed, Carmen nodded and headed back toward the inn. [color=bb0066] "Glad you both think so. Hopefully, we won't be so rudely interrupted tomorrow." [/color] She stretched herself out a bit as she walked, tail swishing from side to side.

[hr]

After a while, a somewhat pudgy man with a badge would arrive at Gideon's position. He noted Gideon and Franky looking a bit distressed and walked over to the two of them. "You two were the ones who called about the ghost, correct?"

[hr]

The secretary sighed to herself and continued typing. "He's always like that... Anyways, I don't know how you two decided to split the money, but I'm just gonna assume you get half." After a while, the secretary got up and walked into the back, returning a short moment later with £1500 in hand. "Here you are and thank you for working at Bounties 'R' Us." She said before sitting back down.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Thanks miss." Axton said as he took the money and left. Deciding to find a hotel or something later, he went back to the WAOA building.

 

[Chungus]

Once the man wearing the badge arived at his location and spoke, Gideon looked to the man and nodded. Better late then never. I guess... "Yeah, that was me. It's gone now, though." He responded, after which Franky chimed in, relaying what he had seen to the investigator.

 

[DotSlash]

As the investigator listened, he nodded a few times and began to take notes on what Franky described and looked a bit surprised. "...I see. We'll file this away a.s.a.p. One thing though, did you see anyone strange... more so than usual when this feeling began to take over? Have you perhaps angered anyone who might have ties to a necromancer?"

[hr]

Axton's walk to the building would be uneventful for the most part.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"...Damn, I shoulda asked about more jobs...Eh, tomorrow." Axton said as he entered the building and attempted to get to the dorms.

 

[Chungus]

Gideon looked slightly shocked as the investigator spoke, but eventually shook his head. "Nearly everyone in this city looks strange to me... so I don't exactly have a benchmark what counts as being strange. No way I could've pissed anyone off, though. We've only been here a day, and that day's been spent being in quarantine in your... company's HQ." He exclaimed, trailing off slightly near the end before continuing, as he wasn't sure company was the right word to use.

 

[DotSlash]

The investigator blinked as he noticed Gideon's expression. "I just needed to make sure that there wasn't any other information that could be of use in the investigation, sir. Sorry if that came off as strange and/or offensive." He closed his notebook and walked off before turning around to the man and the ball. "Take it easy now. We'll get down to the bottom of this quickly."

[hr]

As Axton walked in, he'd find that getting to the dorms was barely an issue. As he made it to the elevator, Rose was also on it. Seeing Axton, she gingerly waved at him.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Oh hey, nice to see ya." Axton said as he walked up in front of Rose. "How ya been?" he asked, even though it hadn't been that long since they had seen each other.

 

[DotSlash]

[color=009933] ".......Well enough. Yourself?" [/color] Rose replied after a bit of a pause, crossing her arms as the lift doors closed and began to move upward a small amount.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Alright. Getting to know the locals better." Axton said with a grin. He soon started to look a little unsure of himself. "So...I'm sorry if I pissed you off before with anything I said. Really wasn't trying to." he said.

 

[Chungus]

"Thanks." Gideon said somewhat distant-mindedly as the investigator left, before reaching into his pocket and retrieving his phone again, wondering what time it was. Seeing the time, Gideon's eyes widened as he let out a silent gasp. "Shit! I'm gonna be late!" He exclaimed, hastily stuffing his phone back into his pocket and looking down to Franky. "Got a job interview to go to! See ya around, Franky!" He exclaimed before running off.

After a while of running, Gideon arived at the cleaning form, just barely being on time. After a brief interview, Gideon got the job, and opted to work the nightshift and start imediately. Once he made his way to his new work place, a mall, the senior staff ran Gideon through the motions, before he got to work, which would continue for the majority of the night.

 

[DotSlash]

Rose paused for a moment or two before shaking her head, letting out a small sigh. [color=009933] "It's fine... I was just being a little pissy." [/color]

 

[Outisakanobody]

"No, I get it. You wouldn't be the first woman I pissed off without meaning to." Axton said, forcing out a small chuckle.

 

[DotSlash]

[color=009933] "Really? I can't really imagine why..." [/color] Rose replied back, seemingly without a hint of sarcasm to her voice.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Well, the folks might be drawn in by my looks, but I do strike out every so often. Hell, it's why I'm divorced." Axton said, seeming rather nonchalant about things.
