Strider Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "If this Coil guy is as dangerous as he sounds, we should probably take you with us to find Leet, for safety? Might be a good opp--" Harry glanced down as his phone buzzed, and grimaced at the mutilation of text that he saw. It was discernible at least, and understandable. "Off subject, but is it a bad idea to eat here? If it is, got any better recommendations? I'm thinking if this place is crap, then a supermarket in the area would be best."
kj1225 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "Yeah, exercising. Like doing push ups and stuff. It'll make you stronger. Here, let me go over a quick exercise routine for you." Arminius does in fact go over an exercise routine for Bandit that she could do in the warehouse.
Powder Miner Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Satomi considered Dragon's words for a moment. "Ummm... I do doubt that I will have the amount of time I would need to learn from any of the dojos here, but I suppose that it's possible I could buy some books... if I could convince the others to spend that much, heh heh..." Books are really expensive, after all! She had no idea how much money two thousand dollars was, but if it was a lot she could probably get a book or two.
Sutoratosu Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 That was one path to nigh assured agitation avoided. Good. As the other girl and the dragon began to hammer away at their visitor with their battery of questions, Lucille collected the case containing the group's compensation and excused herself from the whole scene. She'd made sure the "drugs" were gone and had collected what they were apparently owed- her job was done here. Catching the cat's attention as she walked further into the warehouse proper, she called the largest of them, the black male Do, to her side as she walked. Coming to around the same area where they had eaten the night before and she first found the rest of them, she set the case down behind one of the nearby crates- in fact, it was the very one she had sat upon, for her helm was still there, undisturbed. "Just make sure no one pokes around here," she said to the cat, to which he immediately leapt up on the crate and made himself comfortable in position as sentry, though his eyes still held all the predatory alertness that bespoke so much of his feral nature. Giving the feline a far more comprehensive set of conditions as to how to guard the money (Lilly was most definitely not allowed anywhere near it, nor was anyone the cat had not seen since she came across him this morning) over their link, she went about making sure that if any of said conditions were violated, She'd immediately know what was happening via the bond. With that done, she left Do to carry out its watch. And as she walked away, she began searching for an empty crate, clicking her tongue at several of those nearby before settling on one....
Shamitako Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Eva Thinking words at someone was harder than it might seem. The tall avatar seemed to make it simply enough, but Eva wasn't used to it at all, so it took her several moments of jumbled thoughts before a clear message rang out. Ironically, this message wasn't exactly anything new. "Hi?"
Projeck Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "Huh... And this will make my powers stronger?" Calvera tilts her head.
kj1225 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Arminius shrugs. "Probably not. It'll make you yourself stronger but I'm not a wizard. I don't know magic training stuff."
AbstractTraitorHero Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 (edited) Ren responded rather positively to the hi that he received the oddly dressed feminine Drakeite smiling at the rather strange new compatriot. He, of course, noticed at least partially.....that his other companion was doing something...But he wasn't quite sure what or whether or not he could be included in such a thing and as such he quietly sat down on a bit of dilapidated dock. Quietly perhaps a little excitedly watching the scene unfold soaking in this new person with childlike wonder that often resurfaced sometimes with Ren. He had grown a lot...but sometime's he really did feel like a kid and his lost childhood only made that feeling come out stronger. Either way, Ren was looking at proditor slightly impatiently waiting for a bit of an explanation for what was going on and if he was invited to this whole shebang.

Projeck Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "I don't think that'd improve my powers..." Calvera chuckles.
kj1225 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "Hey, if you ever can't use them for some reason you'll wish you had done some exercises." Arminius says, pointing to Calvera.
Projeck Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "Arminius, I am my powers. I don't have them because I'm a... "wizard," I have them because I am filled with fire and flame. A star." Calvera sticks out her tongue.
kj1225 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "You were a star. Now you're closer to a human. And sometimes humans need to prepare for rare circumstances like being unable to access powers."
GodofGamingRWBY Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Eva would quickly get a reply from Proditor, his voice as calm as normal, "Hello again. Try again, this time with the attempt to answer this: Do you know of the Trespassers?" After a few seconds, Ren would suddenly get Proditor's voice in his own head, "I am attempting to directly speak with this young girl, whom you may call 'Eva'. Guiding her through the process of responding to me is something that takes awhile, so please be patient" Proditor stated, his helmet not budging an inch, even though he was practically speaking to two different people at once.
Endlessblaze Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Ador, finding himself ignored, decided to return to lilly and his nap. Flying back over and laying down. It was a nice day at least. Even if this place was a bit run down.
Projeck Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "Maybe I can carry one of those... what did you call them? Guns?" Calvera scratches her head.
kj1225 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Aquila nods. "That could help, but you can apply your powers with hitting people better. After all, getting punched is bad, but getting punched with fire is worse."
Projeck Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Calvera appears to think for a second, as she stares at her hands. She snaps her fingers once, then furrows her eyebrows. Clearly frustrated, she fists her hand, bending her arm then quickly extending. The bright light of fire quickly erupts on her arm, which is completely covered now. She smiles, "Hey, that wasn't too hard-" but is quickly interrupted by the flame flying off towards Arminius, shortly stopping before him, striking the ground, leaving a large black mark of soot. "...Oops."
kj1225 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Arminius is frozen still for a few moments. Then he lets out what may be the most undignified whine someone has ever heard from an adult man that week as he crumples to the ground, bad memories coming up.
Projeck Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "Are you okay Arminius!? Did I hit you!?" Calvera rushes over, kneeling down to check on the man.
kj1225 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Arminius doesn't look okay, considering he's kind of crying and in the fetal position. She may be reminded of the conversation earlier where he talked about paladins burning stuff and the distant look that came upon him.
Hal Henderics Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 (edited) "It's a Greasetrap, but the food is pretty good. There's also a deal going on where anyone who can eat The Challenger gets it free. It's a pile of meat, grease, and bread unlike any other." "But yeah. I can call them whenever you're ready. Those nerds aren't exactly the busiest of people, and I get the sense that your group can impress them." Tattletale responds. -- "Well, they are much cheaper used, yes. thankfully, there are cheap books available that teach some of the more basic principles." "It isn't like you are going to collage, after all." Dragon jokes. Edited October 27, 2017 by Hal Henderics
Projeck Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "Um.. okay, uh... maybe this will help...?" Calvera lays behind Arminius, putting a hand on his shoulder, moving it up and down. She wasn't very good at this...

When Proditor reached for Ren's mind it would feel perhaps..slightly strange at first like there was something..perhaps surrounding it faintly or perhaps their whole body an energy perhaps"s? Either way, it didn't try to stop you and Ren's mind felt very...human. With something perhaps feeling ever so slightly off. Ren's thoughts jumbling a bit ranging from some kinda fish to images of an overcrowded city. Before Ren managed to respond their mind sending two words in a low tone. Ren Understand's.

kj1225 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Arminius doesn't quiver quite so much, but he doesn't seem really okay.
Projeck Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 "Arminius... it was an accident. It's okay... there's no scary paladins..."
