PapatymisonN:Hey kids.
Deus Fio:I've had a strange idea to try something but you guys probably wouldn't want to.
PapatymisonN:What shall we play?
A Rockin SN:Risk!
PapatymisonN:I call black!
Rain Fox l The:Stratego?
Deus Fio:See, I'd say "D&D!" but we do that enough on here.
Deus Fio:That's the board game I always answer.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Ring ring ring
Lithaladhwen:Banana phone?
blender_bunny@mac.com:Damn straight
PapatymisonN:Anyways, 2ndgen.
Rain Fox l The:That's the 20ish years in the future from the "main" setting, right?
Lithaladhwen:Yes.
Deus Fio:<_< Shit.  Do I have a viable 2gen character right now?
Rain Fox l The:I don't.
Deus Fio:2gen and MAC are pretty much the only RPGWW settings I don't have characters in.
Lithaladhwen:Has Ake met Zea? =D
Deus Fio:Ake hasn't!
blender_bunny@mac.com:I want a robut >_>
Rain Fox l The:I also haven't RPed much, so I'm a bit worried and such...
Lithaladhwen:Oniichan: Don't we all.
Lithaladhwen:But um. Fantasy setting.
Lithaladhwen:RF: Do you have a name I can call you?
Lithaladhwen:What's your given name? I'm Ashley.
Rain Fox l The:I'm Clara
blender_bunny@mac.com:A golem is one computer away from being a robut.
Lithaladhwen:Clara is a good name. Swell.
Deus Fio:Lesse...I've got characters in Main Gaera, Shadow Gaera, Elemaer, and Metro City.
Lithaladhwen:Oniichan: This is true.
Rain Fox l The:Thanks
Deus Fio:CHA: WHAT HAPPENED TO METRO CITY?
blender_bunny@mac.com:A clanky golem is fine too >_>
MischiefMink:Now you've gone and reminded me of Battlebots, which I sorely miss.
KnightsofSquare:A clockwork golem
Deus Fio:I miss being a superhero :(
KnightsofSquare:Program it for ultraviolence.
Lithaladhwen:Superheroes. : (
Lithaladhwen:I thought of something I could do for a superhero, incidentally.
PapatymisonN:It didn't get destroyed.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Superhero roleplaying is honestly quite fun
Rain Fox l The:Oooh, a gearbox robot. Gears are neat.
PapatymisonN:... don't tease me, Ashley.
PapatymisonN:Do you REALLY want to do Superheroes?
KnightsofSquare:I liked the backstory of my City of Villains character
Lithaladhwen:Not at the moment.
Lithaladhwen:I have an idea. Not a character.
Deus Fio:Ashley would get annoyed by my superhero, probably.
blender_bunny@mac.com:I have a character
KnightsofSquare:She was sitting next to the Destined Heroine From Another World
Deus Fio:Everyone gets annoyed by Boreas :D
blender_bunny@mac.com:Insectoid Lad for the win >_>
Lithaladhwen:I could play a souped-up version of Nicki.
KnightsofSquare:And the group of ancient wizards summoning people across worlds missed a little
Rain Fox l The:I had an idea too, Sage helped me make it into a character.
Rain Fox l The:But ehh... I don't know if she's ready.
Deus Fio:Like that time that, completely in character, I went through the lyrics of Beer by Reel Big Fish.
PapatymisonN:Nicki... Heroes Nicki?
Deus Fio:Until Lex's character put a silence illusion on Boreas :(
Lithaladhwen:Clara: If you need any more help, I can be around once my computer is fixed.
Lithaladhwen:Charles: What? Which one is that?
Deus Fio:Niki Sanders is spelled without a C.
Lithaladhwen:And no, my MAC character.
PapatymisonN:Girl who gets superpowers when her MPD kicks in.
Deus Fio:Niki's the hot blond with the split personalities.
Lithaladhwen:Ah. Okay.
PapatymisonN:*superstrength
Lithaladhwen:Perhaps it is good I didn't watch too much of that show.
PapatymisonN:It's not.
Lithaladhwen:But no. This is Nicki as in Veronica.
Lithaladhwen:Veronica Cabed-en-'waith Tenim.
Lithaladhwen:Nicki is nice and short.
PapatymisonN:*puts his hand in the raffle barrel...*
PapatymisonN:*and draws... A BLANK!*
A Rockin SN:(Gah, what was his name...)
A Rockin SN:(Cha, what was the name of my lizard guy?))
Deus Fio:LIZARDO THE AMAZING.
PapatymisonN:Trex?
A Rockin SN:(Trax! But I forgot  his real name.)
blender_bunny@mac.com:INSECTOID LAD IS NOT INSECTILE DO NOT GIVE HIM THAT CRAP
Deus Fio:*makes dramatic hand motions*
Deus Fio:Hee.  I miss playing Boreas.
Deus Fio:What was the bartender's name, again?
blender_bunny@mac.com:Or Doctor Prometheus...
PapatymisonN:... damn, I forget...
Lithaladhwen:Okay. So people want to play the superhero thing?
Lithaladhwen:Charles set it up.
Lithaladhwen:If the booze doesn't konk me out I'll sit in.
Deus Fio:For the uninitiated: Boreas constantly pressures the bartender at the bar the superheroes hang out at to become a superhero himself.
PapatymisonN:Kay. Let me find the barkeep's bname.
Lithaladhwen:Can you do that?
Lithaladhwen:"Hey you. Be a superhero. ...Go."
KnightsofSquare:Oh, we're doing superheroes? :(
PapatymisonN:Batman.
Deus Fio:Boreas isn't playing with a full deck.
Lithaladhwen:Batman is an American superhero.
Deus Fio:Or he likes to pretend he isn't.
Lithaladhwen:His power is money.
Lithaladhwen:And violence.
blender_bunny@mac.com:And emotional duress
Deus Fio:Boreas is always suggesting things to the barkeep like walking around near nuclear reactors and getting bitten by strange insects.
Deus Fio:And procuring power armor.  "At least a jet pack, man."
Lithaladhwen:Well.
Lithaladhwen:Charles is going to set it up.
Lithaladhwen:Tally ho.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Pip pip!
PapatymisonN:<superheroRP!>
A Rockin SN:(There's no hero as cheesy as the Blind Guardian.)
PapatymisonN:*Welcome to O'Herlihy's, THE spot for metahuman affairs... of the alcoholic variety!*
Lithaladhwen:(Fish: "Hello Aquaman!")
A Rockin SN:(Kai... He's literally a blind guy with a guitar.)
A Rockin SN:(I made him up while drunk and for shits and giggles.)
blender_bunny@mac.com:(Aquaman is the second strongest hero in that universe =p)
PapatymisonN:*At the bar, there's a good looking kid you know is named Jason... he's a solid fella... now, go buy hooch from him*
Rain Fox l The:( In what universe? )
Deus Fio:(Aquaman's from the DC universe.)
Deus Fio:(Jason!  That's right.)
Deus Fio:<Cameron Meller, known to those he protects as Boreas, Wind-Wielder>
PapatymisonN:... *to himself* Oh boy...
PapatymisonN:Borry... how you doin', man?
Deus Fio:*A figure enters the bar.  Not tall, at all; very short, actually, though clearly adult.*
Deus Fio:*Pale-skinned, with starkly white hair slicked back from his forehead and clear blue eyes.*
KnightsofSquare:(sigh)
Deus Fio:*His costume is light blue and white, with a flowing cape, and he carries a bow and a quiver of arrows on his back.*
Deus Fio:*His first act upon sitting in a particular stool at the bar is...*
A Rockin SN:<Trex, the lizardboy?!>
Deus Fio:*...to spin on it.  Several times.*
Deus Fio:You fixed my stool!
Deus Fio:Jay, I could kiss you.
A Rockin SN:*a young man walks in! He looks like a normal person. Red shirt, red hair, rather tall and  somewhat lanky.*
Deus Fio:Except then I'd have to stop spinning!
PapatymisonN:... I have a shotgun under the bar, y'know...
Deus Fio:*stops*
PapatymisonN:*waves to the once and future snake boy* Hey, Marty.
Deus Fio:How come whenever I do something, there's a shotgun under the bar, but it's never there when you could, like, shoot at bad guys with it?
PapatymisonN:You didn't hear about Blackhorn?
Deus Fio:Blackwhut?
PapatymisonN:Oh, some lameass Monday villiain...
A Rockin SN:*LIZARD, NOT SNAKE*
A Rockin SN:What happened to him?
Deus Fio:I been out of town.  Suuuuper seeecret Madmen business. *mysterious finger wave hand motions*
PapatymisonN:He came after Gigolo in here, and I put a couple of rounds in his back.
Deus Fio:*points at Jason with a look of shock on his face*
Deus Fio:Dude.
Deus Fio:YOU'RE A SUPERHERO NOW!
PapatymisonN:... he was wearing ARMOR.
PapatymisonN:It did JACK SHIT.
PapatymisonN:But it distracted him enough for Gigolo to put a fist in the guy's nuts, so... *shrugs*
Deus Fio:Doesn't matter!  You took up arms against an enemy threatening the city.  You struck back at the forces of tyrrany.
blender_bunny@mac.com:<Richard Felter, known to the media as Insectoid Lad of American Legion: Teen Today>
Deus Fio:You're coming with me to the place I get my costume done and we're gonna get you one.  You need a name.
Deus Fio:"Barman Bullet".
PapatymisonN:... no.
Deus Fio:"Captain Shotgun"?
PapatymisonN:NOTHING, Borry.
Deus Fio:Oh, I get it.
Deus Fio:Secret identity, right?
A Rockin SN:*facepalms*
Lithaladhwen:(I'm going to try out Nicki.)
PapatymisonN:I AM NOT BECOMING A SUPERHERO, BOREAS. Jeez, man...
Lithaladhwen:(Mebbe.)
Deus Fio:If you're ever out patrolling and you see me, give me a salute, man.
PapatymisonN:If I become a superhero, I wouldn't serve drinks here.
PapatymisonN:Ever.
blender_bunny@mac.com:*A brown-haired man in a leather vest enters, his face is covered in stubble and he has long since outgrown the teenage position in a super team*
PapatymisonN:And then you'd never get rum and cokes just like you like them.
PapatymisonN:*waves to the hasbeen* Welcome,man.
blender_bunny@mac.com:You have termites in your walls again.
Deus Fio:Really?  No one else would dunk a quarter of an Alka-Seltzer tab, a finger of green food coloring, and a packet of Pop Rocks in a rum and coke?!
PapatymisonN:They'd look at you like you had two heads.
PapatymisonN:And they don't even do that to Doubleheader.
Deus Fio:*looks scandalized*
PapatymisonN:So pick. Freaky rum and coke, or me getting killed by a supervillain cuz my only power is my skill with a 12 gauge?
Deus Fio:Do the other bars stock microbrews with names like "
Deus Fio:*"Alien Space Beer", too?
Deus Fio:(Stoopid enter key.)
PapatymisonN:Nope.
Deus Fio:(I can't come up with a good emoticon for someone's jaw dropping.)
A Rockin SN:Speaking of rum and coke... I'd like one. *silent as usual*
Deus Fio:(Actually, I'll just break from my usual tradition of only using anime-style emoticons in RP.)
Lithaladhwen:*A girl in a black turtleneck with black jeans finds her way in. She has black cornrows pulling her hair up into some kind of crazy flyaway improvised red mohawk on top of her head.*
Deus Fio::O
PapatymisonN:*bam! THERE*
Lithaladhwen:(For an image of the hair.)
Deus Fio:>_> You should ask for the special rum and coke.
PapatymisonN:No, you shouldn't.
Lithaladhwen:*She slips to the counter quietly.*
Lithaladhwen:Gin fizz, please.
Deus Fio:<_< Hi.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Yo.
Lithaladhwen:...hi.
PapatymisonN:*BAM! It's there*
PapatymisonN:Hey. Never seen you in here before.
PapatymisonN:*hand of shaking* Jason.
Lithaladhwen:...thank you. And um. I don't. Live here.
Lithaladhwen:*reaches out slowly* Hi. I'm... Nicki. Or Nick.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Huh, so what name did the sheep give you?
PapatymisonN:*shakes* Nice to meet you, Nick. You, uh... "special" like the rest of these guys?
Deus Fio:>_> Not all of us get our names from the media, y'know.
Lithaladhwen:I...what?
Deus Fio:*is the only totally obvious superhero in the room; the costume gives it away*
Lithaladhwen:*glances over to costume kid*
Lithaladhwen:Oh.
Lithaladhwen:I, um. I... I don't... don't do anything.
PapatymisonN:... but...?
Deus Fio:*To be fair, it's not quite spandex; it's clearly more protective than that.*
PapatymisonN:(*has visions of Captain Amazing from Mystery Men*)
Lithaladhwen:No... no buts. I'm... it's... it's not like that.
Deus Fio:*But it's in, like, white and light blue and there's a cape and the typical slightly-pointy superhero boots, which one can imagine Boreas insisting upon.*
blender_bunny@mac.com:Let me guess, you never bought the permits?
Lithaladhwen:....the what?
blender_bunny@mac.com:No one does.
blender_bunny@mac.com:The permits.
PapatymisonN:That's cuz no one CHECKS for permits, man.
Lithaladhwen:Oh.
Deus Fio:(...are there permits in Metro City? >_>)
A Rockin SN:*looks  at the girl and the other oddball*
PapatymisonN:Not unless you take out a city block, or something else crazy...
Lithaladhwen:There are... wait. There are permits?
Deus Fio:Permits?  o_o?
Deus Fio:Oh, I'm probably exempt 'cuz I'm part of a team.  Or there's, like a team permit.
PapatymisonN:(Not really. I suppose there COULD BE... special police deputizations... but everyone freelances, and it's not illegal.)
PapatymisonN:How is that "secret Madmen mission" going, Borry?
blender_bunny@mac.com:It's so super teams and the like can cover their own asses when it comes to public damage.
Lithaladhwen:*looks down into her drink and tries not to think about potential registration requirements*
PapatymisonN:(METRO CITY WILL NEVER ENDORSE REGISTRATION!)
Deus Fio:There was this squid thing; it was cool until London started yelling at me.
PapatymisonN:(YOU'RE A DOUCHE, TONY STARK! e_e)
blender_bunny@mac.com:(I don't mean Civil war XD)
A Rockin SN:London? A city yelled at you?
PapatymisonN:No, she's this British chick...
Deus Fio:Nah.  London.  She's a telepath whatever thing.
A Rockin SN:Oh.
PapatymisonN:Got this hot british 70s punk thing going on...
A Rockin SN:Should've figured.
PapatymisonN:*smirks...*
A Rockin SN:Looks like you've got an eye for her..
blender_bunny@mac.com:Well Beijing has a super hero named after it... he says he was born from the city or something like that. Crazy bastard.
Deus Fio:It's weird, 'cuz girls are always saying that guys with British accents are hot.
PapatymisonN:... *leans over to Nicki* Can I top you up?
Deus Fio:And I don't get the same effect with London, although that might be her only not-hot attribute.
Lithaladhwen:*looks up with a start* No. No thank you I'm okay.
PapatymisonN:You alright? You seem... distracted.
Deus Fio:Overwhelmed by my masculinity.
Lithaladhwen:*looks around* No, I'm fine. Really. *nod*
Deus Fio:*makes a point of discreetly sniffing his underarm areas*
blender_bunny@mac.com:You really should do something about the termites.
Lithaladhwen:Just, um. Lot of people around. Still getting used to the... the social. Thing.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Not used to the big city?
PapatymisonN:Oh, yeah, I know how it is... can you believe I MOVED to this crazyass city?
Lithaladhwen:*blinks* No, it... I, it's being... around.
Lithaladhwen:That's weird.
Lithaladhwen:I'm fine.
A Rockin SN:Hey, not only did you do that, but you are serving the crazyass bunch of the crazyass city.
Deus Fio:Metro City would be the center of the world except all the pressure would crush it and it would be really hot.
Lithaladhwen:IM: Not enough metal either. The center of the world would need more.
Deus Fio:So it's kind of the metaphorical center.  Or social or something, I dunno, I'm rambling.
PapatymisonN:OK, Nick. Lemme know if you need anything, OK?
Lithaladhwen:*takes a deep breath and another sip of her drink* I'm fine. Promise.
Deus Fio:Ask him to make you a special rum and coke.
PapatymisonN:... no one wants that but you, Borry...
Lithaladhwen:...
Lithaladhwen:That's okay. I'm okay.
blender_bunny@mac.com:So what can you do?
PapatymisonN:... are you supposed to ask that of a lady?
Lithaladhwen:...I told you. I don't do anything.
Lithaladhwen:I'm just here and I study and sometimes I go out for a drink. I don't do anything weird.
A Rockin SN:Jason- What did you say is in his "special" rum and coke again?
Deus Fio:Well, we've already discovered that she can walk, drink, speak, probably see...
Deus Fio:*waves a hand in front of her face*
PapatymisonN:...
PapatymisonN:Boreas... that's really fucking rude. e_e
blender_bunny@mac.com:She walked into a Super's bar, it's what happens.
Deus Fio:I'm not bound by your laws, mortal.
A Rockin SN:*if someone's looking at Martin, they'd notice a strange green lizardy tail coming out of his back. It moves slowly towards Boreas' stool, attempting to pull it out from under him*
PapatymisonN:Shotgun...
blender_bunny@mac.com:Okay I saw that coming a mile away and all I see are bugs.
Lithaladhwen:...*sips her drink*
Deus Fio:I'm one.....like one one-millionth Greek god, I'll have you know.
Lithaladhwen:Delusional parasitosis is a sign of drug overdose.
Lithaladhwen:You should watch that.
Lithaladhwen:*another sip*
PapatymisonN:He should, but he doesn't.
PapatymisonN:I've told him that a THOUSAND times.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Actually that's my power...
Deus Fio:*The stool's bolted down, otherwise Boreas wouldn't be able to spinspinspinwheeeee.*
A Rockin SN:*just makes him spin, then!*
A Rockin SN:*... then stops it rather abruptly.*
Deus Fio:Gah!
PapatymisonN:*snicker!*
blender_bunny@mac.com:Rather quiet night for... well here.
Deus Fio:*almost falls all the way to the floor, but a sudden concentrated gust of wind pushes him back up*
A Rockin SN:*tail sneaks back up the back of his shirt*
Deus Fio:*settles in his seat again* I didn't knock anything over with that one, did I?
PapatymisonN:You're fine, Borry...
PapatymisonN:And... uh... dang, man, didn't get your name. *to Oniichan's guy*
blender_bunny@mac.com:Richard.
Deus Fio:Naw, dude, your real name.
blender_bunny@mac.com:...Not the brightest one out there are you?
PapatymisonN:... no, he's not.
Deus Fio:9_9
PapatymisonN:Hi Rick. Jason. *extend hand!*
Deus Fio:Dude, you know what I mean.  Your superhero name.
Lithaladhwen:IM: Rick and Nick. And... and Jason. And some others.
Deus Fio:Bug-Seeing Man?
Lithaladhwen:IM: I don't think... maybe I shouldn't be here. This seems like a weird place.
blender_bunny@mac.com:*Shakes his hand* Oh... They started calling me Insectoid Lad on the television.
Deus Fio:(And Boreas, Wind-Wielder, descendant of the ancient Greek gods of the wind!)
PapatymisonN:I like Rick better.
blender_bunny@mac.com:That makes two.
Deus Fio:I could never be any kind of "lad".
Lithaladhwen:IM: Insectoid Lad? Oh, man.
Deus Fio:That's why I made sure I picked my name.
PapatymisonN:*leans back over to Nick and checks her glass for top-uppieness*
Lithaladhwen:*pulls the glass closer to her* I'm fine.
Lithaladhwen:Promise.
PapatymisonN:... kay... but it wouldn't kill ya to be more social.
Deus Fio:Jay.  Can I have a very special rum and coke?
Lithaladhwen:Wouldn't kill me, no.
Lithaladhwen:*puts a finger on her lips in the universal "sh" sign*
Lithaladhwen:I'm fine. It's okay.
PapatymisonN:Trust me. It's a lot better to know these *quarterAlkaseltzerdashofgreenfooddyepackofpoprocksBAM! done*
PapatymisonN:... guys than to go into battle and have no one notice when you're gone.
Deus Fio:Very special, I said.
PapatymisonN:*umbrella*
Deus Fio:^_^
PapatymisonN:Lemme tell ya a quick story.
Deus Fio:You're the best barman ever.
PapatymisonN:There was this superheroine -thanks, Borry- named Diamond Girl.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Oh lord, not this one.
Deus Fio:I thought you were gonna recite the Ballad of Dinosaur Cadillac.
PapatymisonN:Shut up, it's a good one...
PapatymisonN:She was superstrong, could fly... all around nice kid.
PapatymisonN:She came in here once, didn't really say much, and never came back.
Deus Fio:I'll miss Dinosaur Cadillac and his...uh...dinosaur-like appearance and classic car.
Lithaladhwen:Has anyone studied your demographics? How many can fly?
Deus Fio:*raises his hand8
Deus Fio:**
PapatymisonN:Trust, me, you want me to finish my story.
PapatymisonN:One day, about... eight months after she had come in here, we read this article about "Superheroine Found Alive In Villain's Lair"...
A Rockin SN:*listens to Jason*
Lithaladhwen:...
Deus Fio:o.o I remember this part!
PapatymisonN:Diamond Girl. She'd been beaten senseless and mentally tortured for MONTHS by this guy called Dr. Green.
Deus Fio:*swivels on stool, not outright spinning*
PapatymisonN:And why didn't anyone rush to HER rescue?
Deus Fio:Did she become evil, or am I thinking of someone else?
Lithaladhwen:*looks back down into the suddenly-fascinating carbonation of her drink*
PapatymisonN:She hadn't made friends. No one knew her well enough to care she wasn't around.
PapatymisonN:They all just figured she quit, or went to another city...
PapatymisonN:... my point's this.
PapatymisonN:You GOTTA make friends in this city.
PapatymisonN:It saves your life.
Lithaladhwen:I don't think most people would-- never mind.
PapatymisonN:Just sayin', is all...
blender_bunny@mac.com:Or you can join a team, never have to actually make friends then.
Deus Fio:Yeah, the other Madmen hate me, but they'd come to my rescue.
PapatymisonN:After being convinced... <.<
Lithaladhwen:I don't want to do any of those things.
Lithaladhwen:Sorry.
Deus Fio:I mean, yeah, they'd argue first about whether it was worth it to come to my rescue, but eventually reason and our legally binding contracts would kick in.
Lithaladhwen:*there's a tinny little beep*
Lithaladhwen:*Nick pulls back her sleeve to turn off the alarm on her watch*
Deus Fio:And the fact that I've systematically accrued at least a minor debt with every member of my team.
Lithaladhwen:*She pulls her purse around and digs a little plastic bottle out of it. She shakes a pill out and sets it next to her glass.*
Lithaladhwen:*She takes the pill dry and puts the bottle away.*
PapatymisonN:... don't take it.
Deus Fio:It's not like I don't have money.  I'm a TFS.
Lithaladhwen:I have to.
Lithaladhwen:Just leave it alone.
PapatymisonN:...
PapatymisonN:*turns his attention to a glass' cleanliness*
Lithaladhwen:*holds her glass in both hands and drinks a little more*
blender_bunny@mac.com:Wow what social beacons us paragons of justice are.
Lithaladhwen:IM: For all he knows I'm really sick or something. What does he know about anything.
PapatymisonN:*knows that alcohol and drugs of any kind don't mix...* <.<
Deus Fio:(One of Boreas's powers is supernaturally sharp vision; an incidental glance at the pill would let him read any labels it has, if does.)
PapatymisonN:... YOU are.
Lithaladhwen:(It's not anything he's familiar with.)
Lithaladhwen:(But it needs to be taken four times a day.)
Deus Fio:('Kay.)
Deus Fio:(...man, I wish his PS version was cooler.  He's got a lot more well-developed powers in freestyle.)
blender_bunny@mac.com:...Oh son of a! What kind of drinks do you have in the vision impairing range, Jason?
PapatymisonN:All of 'em. *smirk*
Lithaladhwen:Wood alcohol.
blender_bunny@mac.com:IM: Stop it! Stop it!Stop it!Stop it!Stop it!Stop it!Stop it!Stop it!Stop it!Stop it!Stop it! Stop it!
Lithaladhwen:The finest in spirits that will make you blind.
Lithaladhwen:*sip*
Deus Fio:(The visually acuity of a bird of prey, archery to make him competitive with the likes of Hawkeye, the abilitiy to turn into an insubstantial mist...)
blender_bunny@mac.com:I'll go with what she said.
Deus Fio:Jay...don't you have alcohol for boosted bodies?
blender_bunny@mac.com:I want to go blind, I don't want to lose my liver.
Lithaladhwen:*quietly*It won't be good for your liver either.
Deus Fio:(Do we have a Big Giant Muscle Guy archetype hero yet?)
PapatymisonN:... boosted body alcohol is MORE alcohol.
PapatymisonN:I make more money that way.
Deus Fio:(Or should I make one up for Boreas to reference?)
PapatymisonN:(The only person in this universe who fits that is either Mayor Haggar or Crimson Defender himself.)
blender_bunny@mac.com:(Flex Mentallo =p)
Deus Fio:Yeah, but I mean, like, can't CD drink Everclear straight?
Deus Fio:What am I saying.  The Crimson Defender doesn't imbibe.
PapatymisonN:Oh, CD doesn't come in here... I think he has his own bar in that penis tower of his...
Deus Fio:I've been in the penis tower, y'know.
PapatymisonN:(He doesn't imbibe yet. When he goes to Gaera, he becomes an alcoholic.)
Lithaladhwen:The... the what?
PapatymisonN:Oh, his... "superhero tower".
PapatymisonN:Looks like a giant dick.
Lithaladhwen:I... why... would you... a tower. Sounds awful.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Well it certainly fits the man.
blender_bunny@mac.com:A phallic tower for a dick of a man.
PapatymisonN:Hey! Don't knock CD! He's nice!
Lithaladhwen:....you always... well, I guess I don't know.
blender_bunny@mac.com:I heard from a source that he is just smiling for the cameras.
PapatymisonN:Asshole paparazzo, man.
Deus Fio:Trust me, I've worked with the Defender.  He's solid gold through and through.
PapatymisonN:I met him once. Saved my ass from a collapsing bridge.
Lithaladhwen:*finishes her drink*
PapatymisonN:He's REAL nice.
Lithaladhwen:May I have a water please?
PapatymisonN:*BAM*
Deus Fio:Not even, like, fantasy-game Paladin weight-of-the-world holier-than-thou mentality.
PapatymisonN:*no, it's not superspeed. He's just real damn good with that drink dispenser*
Lithaladhwen:....thank you.
PapatymisonN:You're welcome, Nick. Need some pretzels, or something like that?
PapatymisonN:On the house...
Deus Fio:Trust me, I know conspiracy theories, and I've been successfully able to debunk at least a full quarter of the ones about Crimmy.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Still working on that transvestite one, right?
PapatymisonN:... transvestite one? o.O
Deus Fio:Which transvestite one?
PapatymisonN:WHICH transvestite one? o.O
blender_bunny@mac.com:The CD is a transvestite one.
PapatymisonN:*surprised there's MORE than one*
Deus Fio:The one where he is a transvestite, or the one where he draws his power from them?
Lithaladhwen:No. I'm fine. I don't need any free food. I have a job.
PapatymisonN:I can always charge you for them. Would you feel better about it then?
blender_bunny@mac.com:...He draws powers from Transvestites? Why isn't he serving on the west coast!?
Lithaladhwen:And I don't need food to dilute the alcohol. It won't interfere with my medication. Not if I don't have too much.
PapatymisonN:I was wondering...
Lithaladhwen:So don't worry. I'm a big girl.
Deus Fio:Hey, I said I know conspiracy theories, not that I believe all the ones I hear.
PapatymisonN:*nods*
blender_bunny@mac.com:Hey some one of them are truer than you'd imagine.
Deus Fio:Although I haven't eaten an unprocessed potato in years.
PapatymisonN:And no they're not, Rick.
PapatymisonN:He's... the image he shows...
PapatymisonN:It's true, for once.
blender_bunny@mac.com:I didn't mean about him.
Deus Fio:Those fucking potatoes, man.
Deus Fio:Don't look into the eyes.
Lithaladhwen:....
A Rockin SN:...
PapatymisonN:...
Deus Fio:Oh, come on.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Actually I meant the spider egg ones.
Deus Fio:The eyes on a potato are viewports through which creatures from a far-flung reality peer into our universe.
PapatymisonN:And they look at you, and say, "What a dingbat!"
Deus Fio:If you look at the wrong one at the wrong angle they can assume control.
Lithaladhwen:I think you're wrong.
Deus Fio:When you're a puppet to the potatoes, you'll feel differently.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Trust me if there was anything swirling with tentacles and chitnin, I'd be the one to know.
Lithaladhwen:You haven't accounted for the rhizomes that grow from them, spreading the potato plant.
Lithaladhwen:(Lag.)
blender_bunny@mac.com:I bet you believe in the round pentagon as well.
Deus Fio:You've got eyelids, don't you?  Same deal.  You can't expect them to want to look out of them until humans are ready to eat anyway.
Deus Fio:Round pentagon?
blender_bunny@mac.com:Round Pentagon
Deus Fio:You mean a five-sided figure with no angles, or the base of the Shadow Government?
PapatymisonN:... ypir
PapatymisonN:... You're about 5 seconds away from being cut off.
blender_bunny@mac.com:I mean the figure.
Deus Fio:<_< Who, me?
Deus Fio:Dear, sweet Jason.  You have seen me drunk.  This isn't even buzzed, and you know that quite well.
Lithaladhwen:*pushes red faux-hawk hair out of her eyes*
A Rockin SN:*whispers to Boreas* I bet he's with the Shadow Government. That's why he doesn't want you to have more. To spite you for knowing.
Lithaladhwen:IM: These people are... strange. Am I expected to... weird.
blender_bunny@mac.com:So why did you decide to walk into a Super bar, anyways?
Saturday, May 05, 2007
Deus Fio:>_> Supergroupie, clearly.
Lithaladhwen:(Whom is he asking?)
A Rockin SN:Supergroupie?
blender_bunny@mac.com:(Thine piece of fine ass)
Lithaladhwen:(Ah. Nick.)
Lithaladhwen:*looks up*
Lithaladhwen:Because. I guess I'm supposed to be here.
Deus Fio:She wants one of us to take her home to our secret base.
Lithaladhwen:I don't. You'd regret it.
Lithaladhwen:We both would, I think.
blender_bunny@mac.com:I doubt I'd regret anything anymore
blender_bunny@mac.com:I slept with Sally May Rogers.
Lithaladhwen:I don't know who that is. I don't follow the news of... of you guys.
Lithaladhwen:Sorry.
Deus Fio:So why are you Supposed To Be Here?  Is this a predestination deal, or are you more than meets the eye?
Lithaladhwen:I don't know. Where else should I be?
blender_bunny@mac.com:Let me guess! You are actually the child, robot, clone, explosive beast, dangerous genetic construct, cyborg, or Typhoid Mary of some villain?
Lithaladhwen:....
Deus Fio:>_> Dammit, man.  Find your own personality, you're not allowed to be me unless that's your superpower.
Lithaladhwen:Um.
Lithaladhwen:None of the above. Exactly.
Lithaladhwen:Does it really matter that much?
Deus Fio:I was here first, I should be the only one who gets to say the first thing that comes to mind at any moment.
Deus Fio:Boll weevils.
blender_bunny@mac.com:I see Bugs, and I'm going be honest it's a very broad range of things that follow under bugs.
Deus Fio:Yeah, it matters plenty <_<
Deus Fio:Jay wasn't lying.
Deus Fio:Whether or not you're going to go through a registration deal with the fine government overseen by Mayor Break Stuff, you should still tell us if you're going to be freelancing.
Lithaladhwen:Listen. If you don't bother me, I'm not going to bother you.
Lithaladhwen:If you do, you'll regret any blood I spill more than I will.
Deus Fio:<_<
blender_bunny@mac.com:...What?
Deus Fio:The only way you can live as a super in this city and not be bothered by other supers is to never save anyone, ever.
Lithaladhwen:I can't. So that won't be a problem.
Deus Fio:*shrugs* Okay.
Lithaladhwen:IM: Could kill them, though.
Deus Fio:>_> Unless you're batting for the other team.
Lithaladhwen:I'm not batting for anyone. Why are you being so rude?
blender_bunny@mac.com:Comes with the territory.
Deus Fio:Hey, I'm not being any ruder than you'd be if you were an established superhero in a city and a dubious newcomer took a seat next to you in O'Herlihy's.
Lithaladhwen:Stop talking. I don't want to explain myself or demonstrate anything or go into this at all.
Deus Fio:<_<
Deus Fio:Okay.
Lithaladhwen:Thank you.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Could be worse.
Deus Fio:Anyway, I should, like, go home, because early to bed something something.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Could have wandered into a villains bar.
Lithaladhwen:*little smile* Guess I could have.
Lithaladhwen:They have those?
blender_bunny@mac.com:Of course they have those.
Deus Fio:They pretend like they are, but no one really established would go there.
Lithaladhwen:And you all are okay with this?
A Rockin SN:Monday villains mostly.
Deus Fio:*laughs* Hell no.  It's mostly Mondays.
A Rockin SN:Course  we are. How else does a man keep in practice?
blender_bunny@mac.com:Do you really want to drink next to the Steaming Pile or Miss Acid?
Lithaladhwen:I think I could handle Miss Acid.
Deus Fio:You can't drink next to the Man Himself, anymore, though.
Deus Fio:I should paint a mural to Dinosaur Cadillac.
Lithaladhwen:...
Deus Fio:His poorly-planned attack taught me something about life.
Lithaladhwen:IM: Is he going to... share life lessons now?
Lithaladhwen:IM: In public?
Deus Fio:Several things, actually, including "Don't attack O'Herlihy's on a Monday if you've got no demonstrable superpowers."
Lithaladhwen:Demonstrable. Interesting distinction to make.
Deus Fio:*wipes away an invisible tear*
Deus Fio:(Cha: Do you still have a log of that Monday Villain fight?)
Deus Fio:(I want to remember what Boreas screamed at Dinosaur Cadillac.)
Lithaladhwen:(I don't know where Charles is.)
Lithaladhwen:(He's idle.)
Deus Fio:(I should hit the hay, though.)
Lithaladhwen:(Aw. Okay.)
Deus Fio:(Are you still with the others?)
Lithaladhwen:(Me? Yes.)
Lithaladhwen:(I don't know where he is, and I don't have his number on me at the moment.
Lithaladhwen:)
Deus Fio:(Give everyone a hug for me at the earliest convenience, then.)
Deus Fio:(I'm still so jealous of you :( )
Lithaladhwen:(Shini: "Tell Spleen to go fuck himself.")
blender_bunny@mac.com:(But what do they say of me >_>)
Lithaladhwen:(Nothing so colorful.)
Lithaladhwen:(You still with me, Oniichan?)
Deus Fio:(Tell him I said he is meaningless.)
Deus Fio:(Make sure to point out the Italic formatting.)
Lithaladhwen:(I'll just show him the screen.)
Lithaladhwen:(He seems at a loss.)
blender_bunny@mac.com:(I'm still with you)
Lithaladhwen:(Shini: "Remind him that I'm not named after the fart organ.")
Lithaladhwen:*sips on her water some more*
Lithaladhwen:IM: Maybe I shouldn't have come. I'm not... not like them. I'm not supposed to do anything.
Deus Fio:(Cracks about my handle won't do anything to cover over the bitter, yawning gulf in Shini's heart.)
Lithaladhwen:(Shini: "Remind him that I have a girlfriend." I said, "So does he," and he said, "I can prove the existence of mine.")
Lithaladhwen:( o_O )
blender_bunny@mac.com:*Smiles and looks behind the bar* So this is how you spend your evenings, eh?
Lithaladhwen:(This has turned wrong somewhere.)
Deus Fio:(Actually, I haven't had a girlfriend in a while.)
Lithaladhwen:(I thought you had that lady friend.)
Lithaladhwen:(The one with the problem with the thing that you asked advice about in that place we have on the forum.)
Deus Fio:(Yeah, that was August.)
Lithaladhwen:(Oniichan: That to Nick?)
blender_bunny@mac.com:(Yes)
Lithaladhwen:(I'm bad at keeping track of these things. Mea culpa.)
Deus Fio:(We broke up in September.)
Lithaladhwen:I, um. Not really. I thought I would come by. Been thinking about it for a while.
Deus Fio:(Shini's the only person left on the forum that really does actually dislike me.
Deus Fio:)
Lithaladhwen:(I see!)
Lithaladhwen:I um. Didn't know what would happen if I came, so I did.
Deus Fio:(Anyway, give everyone my love, and don't let Chris's :(ness stop you from the dispensation of proxy Spleen-hugs.)
Lithaladhwen:I anticipated that it wouldn't be anything spectacular, and that nothing would come of it.
Deus Fio:I'm gonna go.
Lithaladhwen:I think my hypothesis was confirmed.
Lithaladhwen:*nods to him* See you around, Established Hero.
Deus Fio:I'm sure you will.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Save the fair maidens and puppies.
Lithaladhwen:IM: Or harass them in public.
Deus Fio:*Boreas jumps into a crouch on the stool and leaps off, becoming slightly less substantial and summoning the wind as he does so, using it to propel him out the door and into the sky.*
Lithaladhwen:...how many of you fly?
Lithaladhwen:Really.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Hmmm, probably about a quarter of us?
Lithaladhwen:That's amazing.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Is it? You have to excuse me, I'm a little bit jaded about the entire super power thing.
Lithaladhwen:Well, it seems rather improbable that one ability would be so... common.
Lithaladhwen:If a quarter of superheroes turned pink, it would be unusual to me.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Oh well different ways by different folks.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Flying is very subjective, the only thing dividing it from falling for us is the ability to survive the landing.
Lithaladhwen:And direction.
blender_bunny@mac.com:I suppose so.
Lithaladhwen:Most people can't direct their falling.
Lithaladhwen:I can't, for example.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Well some people if they tried hard enough, it's almost absurd the amount of people that seem to get their powers that way.
Lithaladhwen:....that must be nice.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Hmmm?
Lithaladhwen:Just... making things happen like that.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Well sometimes you get the short end of the stick, most the time probably.
Lithaladhwen:I don't have it so bad. *shrug* No worse than anyone else.
Lithaladhwen:Just complicated sometimes.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Everyone has it complicated sometimes, a lot of people think it gets easier with super powers. I'm going admit to you, seeing worms fuck has not made this an easier path to walk on.
Lithaladhwen:*smirk* You and worms, huh?
blender_bunny@mac.com:It's not like I can turn it off anymore than some one can turn 'off' their super resistance or Doubleheader can take off his second head.
Lithaladhwen:...what... I mean, if it's not private. What is it?
blender_bunny@mac.com:Keep talking, I'm not understanding you and I just watched a man have an intimate moment in prison from the corner of my eye.
Lithaladhwen:...What do you do?
blender_bunny@mac.com:I see bugs, well I'm a super hero on a super team and my job on it is to fight crime with my useless power and get paid to endorse products.
Lithaladhwen:...I see. And you find this... fulfilling?
blender_bunny@mac.com:*Snorts* Are you trying to psychoanalyze me?
Lithaladhwen:No.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Well then, No.
Lithaladhwen:Okay.
Lithaladhwen:I can't do anything. Nothing good. Nothing useful.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Anything bad?
Lithaladhwen:Maybe.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Well that's better than nothing.
Lithaladhwen:*removes one hand from her pocket and shows him her palm* I'm toxic. I can't help anybody. You get it now?
Lithaladhwen:*puts her hand back*
blender_bunny@mac.com:Poison?
Lithaladhwen:Hm. *nods*
Lithaladhwen:I'm not sure yet about the extent of it.
Lithaladhwen:But it's not the most... constructive or productive ability.
KnightsofSquare:(I'm poissonous)
blender_bunny@mac.com:It happens, not all of us end up the next Crimson Defender, there are plenty of super people that never get a chance to be a hero or a villain.
KnightsofSquare:(Everything I touch turns to fish)
Lithaladhwen:(Le poisson, le poisson how I love le poisson.)
Lithaladhwen:Yeah, well. I don't really want to. I just wanted to come by and see what was up. See for myself.
blender_bunny@mac.com:So is it just your hands?
Lithaladhwen:*scoffs* My hands are the least of my problems.
KnightsofSquare:(Her hands will make you sick, but touch her left earlobe and you're a goner)
Lithaladhwen:I could probably disinfect this countertop with my saliva as long as no one ever wanted to eat off of it again.
Lithaladhwen:(Yeah, that.)
Lithaladhwen:(Also, the inner joint of her right little toe.)
blender_bunny@mac.com:So body fluids are anti-life, have to remember that.
Lithaladhwen:*shrugs* Doesn't really matter.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Why not?
Lithaladhwen:Because. I wasn't going... to... to lick you or anything anyway. Cut my own throat to spray poison on you.
Lithaladhwen:So it doesn't matter. Just... makes things complicated.
blender_bunny@mac.com:I guess I can relate there.
blender_bunny@mac.com:But there is a lot more good to your power than you think.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Or evil.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Or what ever the hell you believe in I guess.
Lithaladhwen:I guess. I'm going to opt out if I can, though. Whole thing seems like more trouble than I'm... more... more cost than benefit. Considering what I can do.
Lithaladhwen:So I don't... think that I need to... worry about what to do... with it.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Look, I think if my power gave me one thing, it's a little bit of perspective. So maybe it has more benefit than I want to admit.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Dying isn't a terrible thing.
Lithaladhwen:*shrug*
Lithaladhwen:There are... bad ways...
Lithaladhwen:...to die.
Lithaladhwen:I haven't met many people I thought... deserved it.
blender_bunny@mac.com:We develop a little bit of higher thinking and we get to this good and bad thing.
Lithaladhwen:I like my higher thinking.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Nothing wrong with liking it, but I don't think I believe in good or bad anymore.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Maybe I do, I mean I'm on a super hero team, right?
Lithaladhwen:Maybe. The point is you use it how you want.
Lithaladhwen:And I don't... don't want to do certain... things.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Nah, your missing the point. I don't use it how I want, my power works and it only works one way, 360 degree vision baby.
Lithaladhwen:My power works one way. I kill everyone.
Lithaladhwen:Aren't we a pair?
blender_bunny@mac.com:The point is the person wields the power how they want.
Lithaladhwen:IM: I said that.
blender_bunny@mac.com:The gun only shoots a bullet, the knife only cuts, the cup only holds. It's how we use it that makes it seem different
blender_bunny@mac.com:There are things that people want killed.
Lithaladhwen:I don't want anything killed. Maybe someday I... will.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Not people, gotta look out bigger.
blender_bunny@mac.com:You can prune the branch but the tree will stay, y'know.
Lithaladhwen:What are you suggesting?
blender_bunny@mac.com:I'm not suggesting. I'm just saying, your all doom and gloom, but killing isn't always this bad thing, just like watching bugs fuck isn't always a bad thing.
Lithaladhwen:I'm not all... not all doom and gloom. I just don't think I'm the laser-shooting flying sonic-blasting solar-powered kindergartener-saving sort of freak.
blender_bunny@mac.com:That puts you a level above the rest of us.
Lithaladhwen:Oh.
Lithaladhwen:Well, okay, then.
Lithaladhwen:I guess it wasn't a wasted day then.
Lithaladhwen:But um. I think I'm going to go.
Lithaladhwen:But I'll... maybe... see you around or... or something.
Lithaladhwen:*pays for her drink*
blender_bunny@mac.com:Yeah, I think that would be nice.
blender_bunny@mac.com:I'd shake your hand but I guess that would be problematic.
Lithaladhwen:No, it's okay. *wipes it on her pants* See? Safe. You can touch me. It's mainly body fluids.
Lithaladhwen:And I'm not leaking any of those.
Lithaladhwen:*offers her verifiably safe hand*
blender_bunny@mac.com:*Shakes it*
Lithaladhwen:There. If you don't feel anything in the next few minutes, you'll know I wasn't lying.
Lithaladhwen:Seeya.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Bye, Nick.
blender_bunny@mac.com:(Oh wait >_>)
blender_bunny@mac.com:(She didn't say her name did she)
Lithaladhwen:(She did.)
Lithaladhwen:(Actually.)
Lithaladhwen:*nods and heads out*
Lithaladhwen:IM: Richard something or other. Fornicating insects. Duly noted.
Lithaladhwen:</Nick>
blender_bunny@mac.com:Yeah, now for alcohol.
blender_bunny@mac.com:</INSECTOID LAAAAAAD!>
Lithaladhwen:</RP>
Lithaladhwen:Oniichan, could you email me a log?
blender_bunny@mac.com:I shall :D!
Lithaladhwen:Kai@rpgww.org will be fine.
Lithaladhwen:Thank you so much.
blender_bunny@mac.com:Okay
Lithaladhwen:My flash drive isn't working right now. Sadly.
Lithaladhwen:*ahem*
