The Doctor Woke up at 8:15PM

Spoke to Tweak Harper [Tam / Boop], Fireantula [Dalia / Kadakism], Dillon Richards [Florence / Kathinja], Amadaeus [Sarah / Nameless], Iggy Prospero [Iggy / Max!!], Bobby B. [Bobby / Kadakism], Lodestone [Ralf / Lazzy]

Doctor woke up not long after Stitch had left, and was filled in by the group. They ended up investigating the back alley, finding a lot of nothing, beyond the bloody scalpel, which Amadaeus took with him.

He returned and ate, talking with the group and gathering information as he went. He ended up spending the night sleeping in a corner of Alibi.

23 Mar 18, 11:33 PMThe Doctor
-nods to the bartender and heads over to curl up in a corner booth like the totally not homeless guy he is-
23 Mar 18, 11:32 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
I see. Good
23 Mar 18, 11:32 PMScene Master
"Uh... sure. Go ahead and take a corner booth I guess. And no. I went ahead and sent her home. Poor girl is shaken up pretty bad."
23 Mar 18, 11:31 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Heh. By the way, the waitress that found Stitches, she still around?
23 Mar 18, 11:30 PMThe Doctor
I doubt they would. With current circumstances, I'm sure they'll be happy to have a doctor nearby.
23 Mar 18, 11:30 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
They allow that?
23 Mar 18, 11:29 PMThe Doctor
-straightens up, adjusts tie- Safer to return home in the morning.
23 Mar 18, 11:27 PMThe Doctor
I'm not leaving. I'll sleep here for the night.
23 Mar 18, 11:26 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Going alone?
23 Mar 18, 11:25 PMThe Doctor
-nods to them and gets up- I'm going to find a place to sleep.
23 Mar 18, 11:18 PMLodestone
Nope. Not a doctor.....
23 Mar 18, 11:15 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
I for one will be looking forward to how this unfolds. Just curious about the voice Stitches heard
23 Mar 18, 11:13 PMThe Doctor
I don't believe that would apply to you. -nods to Lodestone-
23 Mar 18, 11:13 PMThe Doctor
There was discussion about doctors being targetted specifically, but it was only speculation
23 Mar 18, 11:10 PMThe Doctor
It would be recommended.
23 Mar 18, 11:10 PMLodestone
So we gotta pair up and stuff? =/c
23 Mar 18, 11:07 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
I'll be at home
23 Mar 18, 11:06 PMThe Doctor
I will be staying here, personally.
23 Mar 18, 11:05 PMIggy Prospero
Naturally
23 Mar 18, 11:04 PMThe Doctor
I would recommend staying with at least one other person when you travel.
23 Mar 18, 11:02 PMThe Doctor
Most likely. Everyone will be searching.
23 Mar 18, 11:01 PMIggy Prospero
*sighs* It's gonna be a long day tomorrow
23 Mar 18, 10:59 PMThe Doctor
That is the working theory, yes.
23 Mar 18, 10:59 PMLodestone
....someone with hypno powers is running around?
23 Mar 18, 10:57 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
...
23 Mar 18, 10:53 PMIggy Prospero
Gotta watch our asses out there T.T
23 Mar 18, 10:49 PMThe Doctor
Yes. Everyone is alarmed.
23 Mar 18, 10:47 PMBobby B.
. . . Shit. That's what pops was jumpy about.
23 Mar 18, 10:47 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
One of our own, Stitches, got hypnotized into slitting her own throat. The good Doctor here saved her, but who knows who's next
23 Mar 18, 10:46 PMThe Doctor
A member of the family and a member of the union were both killed.
23 Mar 18, 10:46 PMBobby B.
Heard what?
23 Mar 18, 10:46 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
You haven't heard?
23 Mar 18, 10:45 PMBobby B.
So why's everybody so tense?
23 Mar 18, 10:45 PMBobby B.
That'd do it, yeah. -still just plucking at his guitar-
23 Mar 18, 10:43 PMThe Doctor
...Not taking drugs, I would guess
23 Mar 18, 10:43 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
There must be something to suppress the need
23 Mar 18, 10:41 PMThe Doctor
It's an inevitable side effect of being a drug addict.
23 Mar 18, 10:41 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Sigh* Poor kid
23 Mar 18, 10:39 PMTweak Harper
*walks away*
23 Mar 18, 10:39 PMTweak Harper
*shrugs* s-someone wants my head 's a mess already
23 Mar 18, 10:38 PMThe Doctor
(( that was too lazzy cuz I wasn't clear 8') ))
23 Mar 18, 10:38 PMThe Doctor
(( wrong Miniprofile ))
23 Mar 18, 10:37 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
@Lodestone I'd say so
23 Mar 18, 10:37 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
@Tweak worry about yourself. I'll be fine, I promise you that
23 Mar 18, 10:36 PMTweak Harper
*looks at Amadeus* think 'm going home. Don't die p-please.
23 Mar 18, 10:36 PMLodestone
*Waaalks on in* Mmmm! Unity is totally great.
23 Mar 18, 10:34 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Right now, we should be together against our new enemy
23 Mar 18, 10:34 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
heh
23 Mar 18, 10:33 PMTweak Harper
Yeah. Just be nice to forget. S-sometimes.
23 Mar 18, 10:32 PMThe Doctor
Neutral ground doesn't mean not asking. It means not attacking.
23 Mar 18, 10:32 PMBobby B.
I mean, I don't play sides.
23 Mar 18, 10:31 PMTweak Harper
:/ neutral ground... *stands up. Carefully.*
23 Mar 18, 10:30 PMBobby B.
Oh... I guess I'm part of the Prospero family.
23 Mar 18, 10:28 PMThe Doctor
Union or Prospero
23 Mar 18, 10:27 PMTweak Harper
You and s-sides. The s-sides are what.ever we call home.
23 Mar 18, 10:26 PMBobby B.
-plucks at his guitar strings a bit-
23 Mar 18, 10:25 PMBobby B.
Side?
23 Mar 18, 10:25 PMThe Doctor
-tilts head, watches Bobby- ...Which side are you on, exactly?
23 Mar 18, 10:24 PMTweak Harper
*not sure whether it's safer to stay or go*
23 Mar 18, 10:24 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*drinks some more*
23 Mar 18, 10:22 PMTweak Harper
Good. Great. Fucking terrible things. *kind of mumbles the last bit into their sleeve*
23 Mar 18, 10:21 PMBobby B.
Yeah, I'm not so big on the drugs.
23 Mar 18, 10:20 PMBobby B.
-slides onto a stool and looks around-
23 Mar 18, 10:20 PMThe Doctor
Ideally not too many drugs here.
23 Mar 18, 10:20 PMTweak Harper
*looks up briefly to acknowledge*
23 Mar 18, 10:20 PMBobby B.
.....food sounds good.
23 Mar 18, 10:20 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Drinks, food, drugs, whatever suits your fancy
23 Mar 18, 10:19 PMBobby B.
Join in with, uh, what?
23 Mar 18, 10:19 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
@Bobby *Waves* Join in, join in
23 Mar 18, 10:18 PMTweak Harper
My body... *frowns* my body is why. probly on painkillers fore I could walk.
23 Mar 18, 10:18 PMBobby B.
-walks in, carrying his guitar over his shoulder-
23 Mar 18, 10:17 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Sighs* Looks like I'll have to culture organs for you
23 Mar 18, 10:15 PMTweak Harper
*shrugs* heh. Haven't died yet.
23 Mar 18, 10:15 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Your body is going to give out if you keep this up... not that it's my business
23 Mar 18, 10:13 PMTweak Harper
''ve been worse. Just sshould been water last ones, not what ever I drank.
23 Mar 18, 10:11 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Sighs* Don't hurt yourself too much
23 Mar 18, 10:11 PMThe Doctor
Why would it not be?
23 Mar 18, 10:10 PMTweak Harper
Probly. Not best idea.
23 Mar 18, 10:10 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Hm. I'll sedate you if I have to.
23 Mar 18, 10:08 PMTweak Harper
''ll be fine. In a bit.
23 Mar 18, 10:07 PMTweak Harper
No. Mis.counted. too many quick.
23 Mar 18, 10:06 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Do you need a fix?
23 Mar 18, 10:06 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
I was hoping it was something else
23 Mar 18, 10:06 PMTweak Harper
'm fine.
23 Mar 18, 10:05 PMThe Doctor
They are a drug addict. Likely they are feeling the effects.
23 Mar 18, 10:04 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Are you feeling alright?
23 Mar 18, 10:04 PMTweak Harper
*keeps their head down* depends on lots f things. How you sssrurvive on not much things - pay. *shrugs* everyone. Do what you have to.
23 Mar 18, 10:01 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Sips his drink*
23 Mar 18, 09:59 PMThe Doctor
It would depend on your powers. Some have it easier than others.
23 Mar 18, 09:59 PMTweak Harper
*rests their head in their hands. Mumbles something like - miscalculated*
23 Mar 18, 09:57 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Mhm. It's not for everyone
23 Mar 18, 09:57 PMTweak Harper
Lucky people probably.
23 Mar 18, 09:56 PMTweak Harper
:|c guess that works for s-some people.
23 Mar 18, 09:55 PMThe Doctor
A way of establishing a positive reputation.
23 Mar 18, 09:55 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Or perhaps it's the glory. The recognition. Or the perks
23 Mar 18, 09:54 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Moral gratification, hahaha
23 Mar 18, 09:54 PMTweak Harper
... why do a job that doesn't p-pay?
23 Mar 18, 09:53 PMThe Doctor
Too much money for how little this job pays. -finishes eating, slides mask back into place-
23 Mar 18, 09:52 PMTweak Harper
*shakes their head. Mistake. Goes and sits down*
23 Mar 18, 09:50 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Grins and takes Sunshine out to go get ice cream*
23 Mar 18, 09:50 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Invest in a mask that can open its jaw
23 Mar 18, 09:50 PMNoelle Dresdan
Oh, my dark secret, revealed.
23 Mar 18, 09:49 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Fiiiiiiiiine. But only because YOU want some.
23 Mar 18, 09:49 PMNoelle Dresdan
Nobody is too old for ice cream
23 Mar 18, 09:49 PMSunshine (Foxy)
I'm too old for ice cream!
23 Mar 18, 09:49 PMSunshine (Foxy)
G-GAH
23 Mar 18, 09:49 PMThe Doctor
That would be the idea, yes. -keeps his face down to finish eating-
23 Mar 18, 09:49 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*sits down and orders a drink*
23 Mar 18, 09:48 PMNoelle Dresdan
How about... *Picks her up* We get ice cream instead?
23 Mar 18, 09:48 PMNoelle Dresdan
Sunshine, no 8|
23 Mar 18, 09:48 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Must keep your identity a secret, hm?
23 Mar 18, 09:48 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Tries to take one of the pills from Tweak.)
23 Mar 18, 09:48 PMSunshine (Foxy)
>=T
23 Mar 18, 09:47 PMTweak Harper
just another person with s-something to hide. *quick mental calculations. Finishes their drink and two more pills*
23 Mar 18, 09:46 PMThe Doctor
The less people see, the better.
23 Mar 18, 09:45 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
((Lag))
23 Mar 18, 09:45 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
What's the hurry?
23 Mar 18, 09:45 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
What's the hurry?
23 Mar 18, 09:44 PMThe Doctor
-turns away from the group to lift his mask and eat, reaaaaaaaally fast-
23 Mar 18, 09:42 PMIggy Prospero
I'll take a note of that
23 Mar 18, 09:41 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
I am sure Angel is already asking that question. But if he hasn't, I will
23 Mar 18, 09:40 PMThe Doctor
I think it would be useful of the Prosperos were to ask Stitch who they had contact with.
23 Mar 18, 09:39 PMNoelle Dresdan
*8)*
23 Mar 18, 09:38 PMTweak Harper
*still upset about the cigarette burn* :| @Noelle
23 Mar 18, 09:38 PMNoelle Dresdan
Of course, you strong, smart girl. *Grins at her*
23 Mar 18, 09:38 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Shrugs* I think it is time for us to test using tin foil hats and see if something still happens
23 Mar 18, 09:37 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
So anyway, the scalpel wasn't tampered and it wasn't the source of Stitch's clouded mind. I just had to make sure. I've tested my own blades as well just in case
23 Mar 18, 09:37 PMTweak Harper
S-stick together. *sighs* right.
23 Mar 18, 09:35 PMIggy Prospero
Or Angel
23 Mar 18, 09:35 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Shot? Hehehe, no, that would only hinder me
23 Mar 18, 09:35 PMIggy Prospero
You should stick with your sister @Sunshine
23 Mar 18, 09:35 PMSunshine (Foxy)
I c-can handle it!
23 Mar 18, 09:35 PMIggy Prospero
I'm almost surprised you didn't get shot....
23 Mar 18, 09:34 PMIggy Prospero
I think you can
23 Mar 18, 09:34 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
You can't be too sure, Iggy
23 Mar 18, 09:34 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
The scalpel is normal. No signs of tampering
23 Mar 18, 09:34 PMIggy Prospero
It was a scalpel
23 Mar 18, 09:34 PMIggy Prospero
...........
23 Mar 18, 09:34 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Well, as you can see, my neck is still intact
23 Mar 18, 09:34 PMTweak Harper
Find s-something out? @Amadeus
23 Mar 18, 09:33 PMNoelle Dresdan
Mmmhm... :|
23 Mar 18, 09:33 PMIggy Prospero
Oh that... nonsense
23 Mar 18, 09:33 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Impostor?
23 Mar 18, 09:33 PMNoelle Dresdan
@Iggy Just...dealing with this mess. And my impostor mess. Everything is a fucking mess.
23 Mar 18, 09:32 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Walks back in, seeming pleased with himself*
23 Mar 18, 09:32 PMNoelle Dresdan
I'm sorry *Rubs her head*
23 Mar 18, 09:31 PMNoelle Dresdan
You saw something earlier you should not have seen... :blehneko:
23 Mar 18, 09:31 PMIggy Prospero
What have you been up to?
23 Mar 18, 09:31 PMNoelle Dresdan
....
23 Mar 18, 09:30 PMNoelle Dresdan
Mm...
23 Mar 18, 09:28 PMTweak Harper
*screw it orders another drink*
23 Mar 18, 09:28 PMThe Doctor
-sits down at the bar and orders some BAR FOOD-
23 Mar 18, 09:27 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Hiccups.) E-Eavesdropping
23 Mar 18, 09:27 PMNoelle Dresdan
Funny girl. What have you been up to?
23 Mar 18, 09:25 PMSunshine (Foxy)
:squererillama:
23 Mar 18, 09:24 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Reaches under the table and pats Sunshine's head*
23 Mar 18, 09:24 PMNoelle Dresdan
Iggy
23 Mar 18, 09:24 PMIggy Prospero
Oh Noelle....
23 Mar 18, 09:24 PMTweak Harper
*backs away a bit* :|
23 Mar 18, 09:23 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Eyes Tweak, then bends down to look at Sunshine*
23 Mar 18, 09:22 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(WIPES ALL THE TEARS AWAY. SHE WASN'T CRYING, YOU WERE CRYING.)
23 Mar 18, 09:22 PMTweak Harper
*looks under the table* hey, don't forget you've got your bi...g sister. *startles and bumps their head*
23 Mar 18, 09:21 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Brightens up when she sees Sunshine* Oh, there you are!
23 Mar 18, 09:21 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Noelle! D:
23 Mar 18, 09:19 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Returns to the speakeasy, looking irritated*
23 Mar 18, 09:19 PMTweak Harper
'S not up to me anyway.
23 Mar 18, 09:18 PMTweak Harper
*shrugs*
23 Mar 18, 09:18 PMThe Doctor
... Would it matter? If they catch them, they catch them.
23 Mar 18, 09:17 PMIggy Prospero
It'll be fine T.T
23 Mar 18, 09:17 PMTweak Harper
but would they tell us anything?
23 Mar 18, 09:17 PMThe Doctor
The police are more prepared for crime scene investigation then we are.
23 Mar 18, 09:16 PMSunshine (Foxy)
I'm fi-fiiine
23 Mar 18, 09:16 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Takes it and... blows into it trying to still play tough.)
23 Mar 18, 09:16 PMTweak Harper
what makes you think the police won't just get in the way?
23 Mar 18, 09:15 PMDillon Richards
See you at work, Fireantula. *Takes once last look at Sunshine, then quickly heads out*
23 Mar 18, 09:15 PMIggy Prospero
((handkerchief...whatver))
23 Mar 18, 09:14 PMIggy Prospero
What's wrong? *hands her a tissue*
23 Mar 18, 09:14 PMThe Doctor
-nods to them then, and follows Tweak back in- I still think we should alert the police.
23 Mar 18, 09:14 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Sniffles.)
23 Mar 18, 09:14 PMSunshine (Foxy)
T.T N-NOTHING
23 Mar 18, 09:14 PMDillon Richards
*Smiles at Sunshine, then gets up from his chair* Alright, I suppose it's time for me to get back to the ol' Ball and Chain...
23 Mar 18, 09:13 PMDillon Richards
....
23 Mar 18, 09:13 PMIggy Prospero
*peers under table as well* What are you doing?
23 Mar 18, 09:12 PMDillon Richards
...? *Peeks under table, seeing movement*
23 Mar 18, 09:12 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Leaves for the lab*
23 Mar 18, 09:12 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Stitch. T^T
23 Mar 18, 09:12 PMTweak Harper
*sighs and goes back inside*
23 Mar 18, 09:12 PMIggy Prospero
...........Normally I'd care but I don't
23 Mar 18, 09:11 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Very well. Then I am off
23 Mar 18, 09:11 PMFireantula (Kada)
-looks at Iggy and then stares back at her drink-
23 Mar 18, 09:11 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
It's in neutral territory, so you'll not need to worry
23 Mar 18, 09:11 PMThe Doctor
...I have no intention of doing so.
23 Mar 18, 09:11 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Hiding under a table.) >=T
23 Mar 18, 09:11 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Then you are welcome to accompany me back to my lab where this experiment can be done in peace
23 Mar 18, 09:11 PMIggy Prospero
Idiots..... *walks inside*
23 Mar 18, 09:11 PMIggy Prospero
. . . .
23 Mar 18, 09:10 PMScene Master
[[So to move this along. It is just a scalpel. It doesn't hijack your brain when you touch it. No one needs to be shot.]]
23 Mar 18, 09:09 PMThe Doctor
I am confident in my ability to shoot you before you are able to finish standing up straight.
23 Mar 18, 09:09 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Besides, if nothing is wrong with the scalpel, I'd like to return it to its owner. I'll not risk damaging it
23 Mar 18, 09:08 PMTweak Harper
And expendable
23 Mar 18, 09:08 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
@Tweak out of the question
23 Mar 18, 09:08 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
@Iggy They are indeed, but a person's reaction time adds to that
23 Mar 18, 09:08 PMTweak Harper
Let me do it then. 'm easier to stop.
23 Mar 18, 09:08 PMIggy Prospero
.............bullets are faster than most hands
23 Mar 18, 09:08 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Hahahaha
23 Mar 18, 09:07 PMThe Doctor
-pulls out his M1911, aims at Amadaeus- There. I can fire before you can cut now.
23 Mar 18, 09:07 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
((The last sentence was meant to be said))
23 Mar 18, 09:07 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Locks the sword back to his belt. I'm not letting this out of my sight*
23 Mar 18, 09:06 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
I doubt it. A flick of the wrist and a raised elbow would take less than half a second. I'll be bleeding before your shot hits
23 Mar 18, 09:05 PMTweak Harper
*blinks* maybe not s-stand s-so near your s-sword?!
23 Mar 18, 09:04 PMThe Doctor
... No, probably not. I could shoot you in the arm before you cut your own throat.
23 Mar 18, 09:04 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
If I cut my own throat here, do you think you'll still be able to heal me in your state, Doctor?
23 Mar 18, 09:03 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
I was thinking the same.
23 Mar 18, 09:03 PMThe Doctor
I suppose touch it yourself, and if anything happens, we'll simply stop you.
23 Mar 18, 09:02 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Not without any equipment
23 Mar 18, 09:02 PMTweak Harper
Would you be able to tell?
23 Mar 18, 09:02 PMScene Master
It is still a scalpel.
23 Mar 18, 09:01 PMTweak Harper
..
23 Mar 18, 09:01 PMThe Doctor
...A fair point.
23 Mar 18, 09:01 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Stands back up and examines the underside of the scalpel closely*
23 Mar 18, 09:01 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Even so, who's to say the scalpel isn't the item that clouded her mind?
23 Mar 18, 09:00 PMIggy Prospero
What the hell....
23 Mar 18, 09:00 PMScene Master
The scalpel sticks to the magnet, blood splattering a little on the gloves.
23 Mar 18, 09:00 PMDillon Richards
*Stares down, eyes vacant toward his drink*
23 Mar 18, 08:59 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Takes out a small magnet from his pocket and uses it to try and pick the scalpel up without directly touching it with his gloved hand*
23 Mar 18, 08:59 PMDillon Richards
Cruel, even...
23 Mar 18, 08:59 PMIggy Prospero
*strolls in.....makes a face*
23 Mar 18, 08:59 PMThe Doctor
Fingerprints would show only hers. This might be a dead end entirely, since there's no way to sort evidence of anyone else out.
23 Mar 18, 08:59 PMDillon Richards
*Shakes his head, leaning back in his chair* Unfair, isn't it?
23 Mar 18, 08:58 PMScene Master
It is a scalpel, covered in blood.
23 Mar 18, 08:57 PMFireantula (Kada)
I just... why do I have to choose between my family and doing what's right?
23 Mar 18, 08:57 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Leans down and examines the scalpel*
23 Mar 18, 08:57 PMThe Doctor
Or they simply had their equipment with them while going to and from a job.
23 Mar 18, 08:57 PMDillon Richards
But you are, nonetheless.
23 Mar 18, 08:56 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
As I thought... It seems she and I have the same habit of bringing our tools on a stroll
23 Mar 18, 08:56 PMFireantula (Kada)
I guess I don't have the right to call them family or be concerned about them anymore.
23 Mar 18, 08:55 PMScene Master
After several minutes of searching, you come across a spot with more blood than normal. Sitting in a pool of the dried liquid is a surgical scalpel.
23 Mar 18, 08:55 PMThe Doctor
My fr- oh. I don't agree with them, for what it's worth. -surveys... visually. He aint touching anything-
23 Mar 18, 08:55 PMDillon Richards
*Slow sip of his drink* ...And you're caught in between.
23 Mar 18, 08:55 PMTweak Harper
*pokes around a bit*
23 Mar 18, 08:55 PMTweak Harper
Don't know how much help they'd be. F-fucking mind control
23 Mar 18, 08:54 PMFireantula (Kada)
-sitting inside, staring at her drink-
23 Mar 18, 08:54 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Limps towards the piles of garbage and uses his sheathed katana to sweep the trash where Stitches was probably standing*
23 Mar 18, 08:52 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Your friends said it yourself, this is our problem
23 Mar 18, 08:52 PMThe Doctor
Surely they have better resources for crime scene investigation.
23 Mar 18, 08:52 PMThe Doctor
...Would it not be prudent to contact the police?
23 Mar 18, 08:52 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
((Oh right, scratch that))
23 Mar 18, 08:51 PMScene Master
[[The garbage doesn't move because Amadaeus doesn't have points in Lift.]]
23 Mar 18, 08:50 PMTweak Harper
*looks around.*
23 Mar 18, 08:50 PMTweak Harper
I don't really have any powers to s-speak of.
23 Mar 18, 08:50 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Mentally lifts up all the garbage* Help me find the blade
23 Mar 18, 08:49 PMThe Doctor
I suppose no one has magnetism powers?
23 Mar 18, 08:49 PMFireantula (Kada)
Yeah...
23 Mar 18, 08:48 PMDillon Richards
... *Sips his drink* Certainly a mess...
23 Mar 18, 08:48 PMScene Master
The back of the Alibi reeks of alcohol and garbage and, more subtly, blood. Garbage is strewn around where it was pulled off of Stitch.
23 Mar 18, 08:48 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Looks around*
23 Mar 18, 08:48 PMTweak Harper
*follows Amadeus*
23 Mar 18, 08:48 PMThe Doctor
-goes with Amadaeus and tweak, leading them out back-
23 Mar 18, 08:47 PMFireantula (Kada)
Right... -orders another drink-
23 Mar 18, 08:47 PMDillon Richards
Oh, that's horrible. I promise to never say that again.
23 Mar 18, 08:47 PMDillon Richards
Yes, us Unionies will stick together :winkyllama:
23 Mar 18, 08:47 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Very well. *Heads off to the crime scene*
23 Mar 18, 08:47 PMTweak Harper
I'll go with you.
23 Mar 18, 08:46 PMFireantula (Kada)
I'll stay with him.
23 Mar 18, 08:46 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Alone?
23 Mar 18, 08:46 PMDillon Richards
Haha, I'll be here...avoiding the blood... ^^;;
23 Mar 18, 08:45 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
But anyway, let's go see that scene, shall we? I am interested in the blade she'd use to try and off herself
23 Mar 18, 08:45 PMFireantula (Kada)
((responsible**))
23 Mar 18, 08:45 PMFireantula (Kada)
Maybe we are respinsires.
23 Mar 18, 08:44 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
It might not be for long. Civilians are in danger as well. We can't be sure they're only after us after all. And I can bet we'll be held responsible in the eyes of the public for dragging them into this
23 Mar 18, 08:43 PMFireantula (Kada)
This is our business.
23 Mar 18, 08:43 PMThe Doctor
No one bothered, and the Prospero's were against it.
23 Mar 18, 08:43 PMFireantula (Kada)
Police weren't called, yeah.
23 Mar 18, 08:43 PMThe Doctor
The police haven't even been notified.
23 Mar 18, 08:42 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Hahahaha, I would have thought the police had already locked off the crime scene. Let's go
23 Mar 18, 08:41 PMThe Doctor
We could simply go look, rather than speculating.
23 Mar 18, 08:41 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Hmm... she mentioned something about being covered in garbage. So that either means someone tried to cover her up, or a pile fell on her as she collapsed
23 Mar 18, 08:41 PMDillon Richards
Well, that poor girl... :blehneko:
23 Mar 18, 08:40 PMThe Doctor
The waitress found her. We heard screaming.
23 Mar 18, 08:40 PMTweak Harper
And then... why was she out back? Was she in here first?
23 Mar 18, 08:40 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
How did you find her? Were you on your way back there, or did she stumble in before collapsing?
23 Mar 18, 08:39 PMThe Doctor
It's dark, but there's blood out back. She wouldn't have lasted long enough to be moved.
23 Mar 18, 08:39 PMTweak Harper
How do you catch s-someone like that? - we found her out back, unless she was moved.
23 Mar 18, 08:38 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
In an alley?
23 Mar 18, 08:38 PMThe Doctor
-glances at Amadaeus- It would have had to have been out back.
23 Mar 18, 08:38 PMThe Doctor
Would have been useful to know who she had contact with.
23 Mar 18, 08:38 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Do you know where it happened? Where Stitch slit her throat?
23 Mar 18, 08:37 PMTweak Harper
Probably. But how close do they have to be? Was it s-someone in here?
23 Mar 18, 08:36 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Troublesome...
23 Mar 18, 08:36 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
I wonder if I qualify to be in that hit list
23 Mar 18, 08:35 PMDillon Richards
True, we do have quite a few...
23 Mar 18, 08:35 PMFireantula (Kada)
((in** the))
23 Mar 18, 08:35 PMThe Doctor
Hm. ...Maybe I'll sleep here tonight.
23 Mar 18, 08:35 PMFireantula (Kada)
There's other healing types I'm the Union.
23 Mar 18, 08:35 PMFireantula (Kada)
Maybe.
23 Mar 18, 08:35 PMDillon Richards
In other words, you are a likely next target, Doctor.
23 Mar 18, 08:35 PMThe Doctor
Oh. That makes a good deal more sense.
23 Mar 18, 08:34 PMFireantula (Kada)
She was mind controlled into slitting her own throat.
23 Mar 18, 08:34 PMTweak Harper
S-someone unknown with mind control abilities. *downs the drink with more painkillers*
23 Mar 18, 08:34 PMFireantula (Kada)
Stitch, the woman you healed.
23 Mar 18, 08:34 PMThe Doctor
I asked who we were talking about. I just woke up and all I've heard is that they're going to kill the ones who can heal.
23 Mar 18, 08:34 PMFireantula (Kada)
If zombie Starbight and Alexandrian come to kill us, we're fucked.
23 Mar 18, 08:34 PMFireantula (Kada)
I hope, at least.
23 Mar 18, 08:34 PMFireantula (Kada)
They can't very well do that. They're dead.
23 Mar 18, 08:33 PMDillon Richards
:')
23 Mar 18, 08:33 PMFireantula (Kada)
No
23 Mar 18, 08:33 PMFireantula (Kada)
. . .
23 Mar 18, 08:33 PMThe Doctor
...Starbright and the Alexandrian are oging to kill me?
23 Mar 18, 08:33 PMFireantula (Kada)
They got taken out first. Then Stitch.
23 Mar 18, 08:33 PMFireantula (Kada)
Lucia- Starbright and Alexandrian. They were arguably the strongest people in the two biggest masked groups.
23 Mar 18, 08:33 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
@Doctor "They" want to cripple us. But it'll be much easier once the ones who can take care of the wounded are taken out of the picture
23 Mar 18, 08:32 PMThe Doctor
...I'm not following. Who are we talking about?
23 Mar 18, 08:32 PMFireantula (Kada)
Anybody with powers.
23 Mar 18, 08:32 PMFireantula (Kada)
Heroes. Villains.
23 Mar 18, 08:32 PMTweak Harper
You're the one called me a junkie piece of shit for bringing up a valid point. *shrugs*
23 Mar 18, 08:32 PMThe Doctor
Kill what ones that can heal? -confused-
23 Mar 18, 08:32 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Chuckles* No, not your whole story
23 Mar 18, 08:31 PMFireantula (Kada)
-grins at Amadeus- You don't know me, do you?
23 Mar 18, 08:31 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
@Fireantula Just because I'm a Prospero doesn't mean I have to hate the same people they hate
23 Mar 18, 08:31 PMTweak Harper
'S what she s-said. Kill the ones who can heal.
23 Mar 18, 08:30 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
@Tweak calm your nerves. You'll only grow anxious
23 Mar 18, 08:30 PMFireantula (Kada)
You're the first Prospero to talk to me like I'm not a fucking animal @Asmadaeus
23 Mar 18, 08:30 PMTweak Harper
Fuck. *orders a drink. *
23 Mar 18, 08:29 PMThe Doctor
-sits up from his spot on the bench, focuses on Tweak- Why are doctors in danger now?
23 Mar 18, 08:29 PMFireantula (Kada)
-takes a long drink and grimaces-
23 Mar 18, 08:29 PMFireantula (Kada)
I mean in this whole situation...
23 Mar 18, 08:29 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
And don't let anyone tell you otherwise
23 Mar 18, 08:29 PMTweak Harper
Mind control the s-stronger one to kill the weaker. Or s-someone uses it as an excuse.
23 Mar 18, 08:29 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
You are not useless
23 Mar 18, 08:28 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Then I'll have to thank you. See? Without your help, she'd still have a gap in her throat
23 Mar 18, 08:28 PMFireantula (Kada)
Yeah, it was mine.
23 Mar 18, 08:28 PMFireantula (Kada)
-orders herself a drink and sits at the bar- I mean. As long as this guy can't mind control two people at once, it's safer...
23 Mar 18, 08:28 PMDillon Richards
You are hardly that, Fireantula.
23 Mar 18, 08:28 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
It was your silk on her stitches?
23 Mar 18, 08:27 PMFireantula (Kada)
I feel so useless...
23 Mar 18, 08:27 PMTweak Harper
... are pairs even s-safe?
23 Mar 18, 08:27 PMFireantula (Kada)
Tch... dammit.
23 Mar 18, 08:27 PMAngel Prospero
-exits with Stitch-
23 Mar 18, 08:27 PMScene Master
"Lead the way dear."
23 Mar 18, 08:26 PMAngel Prospero
-sighs at Stitch- Lets get going then.
23 Mar 18, 08:26 PMTweak Harper
Just thinking. Likely targets. @Amadeus
23 Mar 18, 08:26 PMDillon Richards
*Orders himself another drink*
23 Mar 18, 08:25 PMScene Master
"Pish posh. I will be fine. Some coffee and a little booze and I'll be right as rain."
23 Mar 18, 08:25 PMTweak Harper
Might want to keep watch on your doctor then.
23 Mar 18, 08:25 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Hmm? @Tweak
23 Mar 18, 08:25 PMThe Doctor
-is awake, but still lying down, l i s t e n i n g, his eyes half open-
23 Mar 18, 08:24 PMAngel Prospero
-frowns slightly- You don't look well. You should sleep, not be going back to patients.
23 Mar 18, 08:24 PMTweak Harper
*looks at Amadeus pauses looks at the doctor too*
23 Mar 18, 08:24 PMScene Master
She takes it gladly and squeezes his arm a bit and laughs. "You're so strong. I haven't had a dashing young man like you offer me his arm in ages."
23 Mar 18, 08:23 PMAngel Prospero
-offers his arm to Stitch-
23 Mar 18, 08:23 PMFireantula (Kada)
Take out our strongest. Then the ones who can heal us.
23 Mar 18, 08:22 PMFireantula (Kada)
Trying to cripple us...
23 Mar 18, 08:22 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Helps her up*
23 Mar 18, 08:22 PMScene Master
"Who knows. Regardless." She shakily tries to stand up.
23 Mar 18, 08:22 PMAngel Prospero
Or it was random, to prove a point. You're important in the family.
23 Mar 18, 08:22 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
You must know something they didn't want you to say, or perhaps it has something to do with your patients
23 Mar 18, 08:21 PMScene Master
"Haha! You flatter me, Angie. These old bones are well on their way out anyhow. Don't know why this stranger decided I was a prime target."
23 Mar 18, 08:20 PMAngel Prospero
Being alone is how you get hurt. -accepts Syringe from Amadaeus, nods to him-
23 Mar 18, 08:20 PMAngel Prospero
Then I'll go with you. Everyone should be sticking with someone else.
23 Mar 18, 08:20 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
@Angel If you'll go with her, give her this if she ever tries killing herself again *Hands him a syringe with a dull green fluid inside* Should numb her nerves for a few hours
23 Mar 18, 08:20 PMTweak Harper
It lets us know... but no. Anyone could be hiding a power.
23 Mar 18, 08:20 PMScene Master
"I can't leave them by themselves too long, Angie dear."
23 Mar 18, 08:19 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
You better have assistants
23 Mar 18, 08:19 PMAngel Prospero
... You planning to go back already? I'll go wtih you.
23 Mar 18, 08:19 PMTweak Harper
Hardly a s-surprise if I overdose...
23 Mar 18, 08:18 PMScene Master
"Well this is all interesting. But I have patients to get back to."
23 Mar 18, 08:18 PMAngel Prospero
This doesn't get us any closer to the killer. Just gives us a part of the how.
23 Mar 18, 08:18 PMDillon Richards
...Oh, I suppose. But they have to use a weak body to do it! Takes more effort.
23 Mar 18, 08:17 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Stands, using his cane for support with a little pained grunt*
23 Mar 18, 08:17 PMTweak Harper
My head is bad enough... don't t-think I'd know the difference. :/
23 Mar 18, 08:16 PMAmadaeus [Nameless]
You can still shoot yourself with an ordinary gun, or drive a screwdriver in your chest
23 Mar 18, 08:16 PMFireantula (Kada)
I mean, that just means they can kill you any way they want.
23 Mar 18, 08:16 PMDillon Richards
I suppose I benefit from being just an ordinary human, in that case!
23 Mar 18, 08:15 PMTweak Harper
Hmm. I've heard there were no s-signs of s-struggle. Wasn't s-sure enough to tell earlier.
23 Mar 18, 08:15 PMDillon Richards
Sounds like quite the horror story.
23 Mar 18, 08:15 PMThe Doctor
-cracks an eye open, looking less tired but very weary just the same-

The Doctor Woke up at 9:10 AM

Spoke to Amadaeus [Sarah / Nameless], Iggy Prospero [Iggy / Max!!]

The Doctor was woken by the sound of a body crashing through the front glass. He crept to investigate, but was influenced by a mental voice that insisted he needed to heal them. He did his best to talk to Amadaeus, but was overtaken by the voice, literally healing his target to death. Eventually, he was knocked out, passing out on the floor.

24 Mar 18, 09:43 AMThe Doctor
-is beyond just paralyzed - passed out on the floor now from sheer exhaustion from healing-
24 Mar 18, 09:41 AMIggy Prospero
*eye twitch* It'd be nice to have some backu- get the hell out of my head
24 Mar 18, 09:41 AMScene Master
Only to Iggy "You know... one second thought, nevermind."
24 Mar 18, 09:40 AMScene Master
[[paralyzed**]]
24 Mar 18, 09:40 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
It... might have... ans....
24 Mar 18, 09:39 AMScene Master
Looks like The Doctor and Amadaeys are parqlyzpa for now.
24 Mar 18, 09:39 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
The bloody syringe...
24 Mar 18, 09:39 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
The...
24 Mar 18, 09:39 AMIggy Prospero
*calls the fucking police*
24 Mar 18, 09:39 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*falls back, feeling the drugs taking effect*
24 Mar 18, 09:39 AMIggy Prospero
No one's touching that
24 Mar 18, 09:39 AMIggy Prospero
I'm getting sick of this shit
24 Mar 18, 09:38 AMThe Doctor
-is stabbed, and is already pretty close to passing out anyway. Does jerk away from iggy when the fear wave hits him, sort of crawling away before slumping on the floor, starting to pass out-
24 Mar 18, 09:36 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
contain us...
24 Mar 18, 09:36 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
We're going to sleep...
24 Mar 18, 09:36 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
No...
24 Mar 18, 09:36 AMIggy Prospero
WOULD YOU TWO WAKE UP
24 Mar 18, 09:36 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Hehe...
24 Mar 18, 09:35 AMIggy Prospero
*hits them both with a big ole wave of fear*
24 Mar 18, 09:35 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Sorry...
24 Mar 18, 09:35 AMScene Master
And none of the healing seems to be making any progress
24 Mar 18, 09:35 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Tosses the syringe away and stabs the Doctor with the numbing syringe to make him stop and then grabs another to inject himself with*
24 Mar 18, 09:34 AMThe Doctor
-looks perilously close to passing out where he squats-
24 Mar 18, 09:34 AMThe Doctor
-continues healing the very dying patient-
24 Mar 18, 09:34 AMScene Master
Only to Amadaeus Weren't you so willing to risk slitting your own throat last night? Don't be a coward. Progress dmands sacrifice."
24 Mar 18, 09:33 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Hands shaking*
24 Mar 18, 09:33 AMScene Master
Only to Amadaeus "Go on. For science."
24 Mar 18, 09:32 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Telling me... inject it into my...
24 Mar 18, 09:32 AMIggy Prospero
They have terrible advice
24 Mar 18, 09:32 AMThe Doctor
They have good advice.
24 Mar 18, 09:32 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Damn it... I'm hearing voices...
24 Mar 18, 09:32 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Ah...
24 Mar 18, 09:31 AMScene Master
Only to Amadaeus "You can figure it out. But you can't trust anyone else's observations. Maybe you ought to inject it into yourself. That's the only way you can trust the data."
24 Mar 18, 09:31 AMIggy Prospero
i'm only calling because this happened in neutral territory, nothing more *heads for the phone*
24 Mar 18, 09:30 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Looks at the blood-filled syringe.* I know there's something not right in here
24 Mar 18, 09:29 AMIggy Prospero
. . . . .
24 Mar 18, 09:29 AMScene Master
Only the Doctor "No, don't listen to him. You're doing great. I'm so proud of you."
24 Mar 18, 09:28 AMThe Doctor
I'm healing him. -continues to heal, undeterred-
24 Mar 18, 09:28 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
That is not the point! We need to get as much out from him before whatever's inside his blood is gone
24 Mar 18, 09:27 AMIggy Prospero
He seems beyond saving at this point
24 Mar 18, 09:27 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Iggy! Emergency services, now!
24 Mar 18, 09:26 AMScene Master
The Doctor is looking rough. but his hands clamp down tighter on the victim
24 Mar 18, 09:26 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
This is not natural!
24 Mar 18, 09:25 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Grunts* Damn it!
24 Mar 18, 09:25 AMScene Master
The blood flows thick, like syrup
24 Mar 18, 09:25 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Uses the same syringe to extract blood*
24 Mar 18, 09:25 AMIggy Prospero
*walks in at this exact moment* ..........Lovely
24 Mar 18, 09:25 AMThe Doctor
-goes silent, still healing, staring down at the victim-
24 Mar 18, 09:25 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
What?
24 Mar 18, 09:24 AMScene Master
The second the fluid enters their blood stream, they convulse violently and bleed from their eyes.
24 Mar 18, 09:24 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
... Don't push yourself. It could be trying to overwork you
24 Mar 18, 09:24 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Injects the wounded hero with the pink syringe to aid with the healing*
24 Mar 18, 09:23 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
... I'm giving the victim a shot...
24 Mar 18, 09:23 AMThe Doctor
-is ever so slightly slurring when he talks, looking slightly unfocused- That I need to heal them.
24 Mar 18, 09:22 AMScene Master
The victim, despite the Doctor's healing, seems to be degrading as quickly as they are healed.
24 Mar 18, 09:22 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
What do the voices say?
24 Mar 18, 09:22 AMScene Master
Only the Doctor. "Good. Now keep it up. You're doing great. I know you get tired, but you have to keep going. You need to save them."
24 Mar 18, 09:21 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
Voices... *Pulls out another syringe* Unfortunately, I can't guarantee I can get to you before you do
24 Mar 18, 09:20 AMThe Doctor
-glances to Amadaeus, who's now fully inside, and is very, very direct- I'm hearing voices, so please be ready to stop me if I attempt to self harm. -grabs their ankle immediately-
24 Mar 18, 09:20 AMScene Master
Only the Doctor. "Do it NOW." [Influence 5: mental suggestion]
24 Mar 18, 09:20 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Puts two fingers on the victim's neck to check for a pulse*
24 Mar 18, 09:19 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Feels his fingers around in his satchel and pulls out a syringe with a light pink fluid*
24 Mar 18, 09:19 AMScene Master
Only to the Doctor "Come on now. Hurry. They'll die if you don't."
24 Mar 18, 09:18 AMThe Doctor
-well, he was wrong, and you know what time it is. goes to reach for them, and falters abruptly, jerking his head around-
24 Mar 18, 09:18 AMScene Master
The Doctor, and only the Doctor, hears. "Well they seem in a bad spot. I'm sure you could heal them."
24 Mar 18, 09:17 AMScene Master
The body is of a Union Workers' League hero, bloodied up pretty bad. But they're still alive, if only barely.
24 Mar 18, 09:17 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
This doesn't look good
24 Mar 18, 09:16 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Well, looks like he's going through the window. Mind the glass*
24 Mar 18, 09:16 AMThe Doctor
-creeps out of his booth, spotting Amadaeus but keeping his head down as he approaches the body. He's got his suspicions, at least-
24 Mar 18, 09:15 AMScene Master
No, but considering the storefront just got smashed open, it'd be pretty easy to get in.
24 Mar 18, 09:14 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Tries to open the door. Is it even open yet?*
24 Mar 18, 09:14 AMScene Master
The body isn't moving.
24 Mar 18, 09:12 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Peeks in from the broken window and sees the figure* Who is it this time?
24 Mar 18, 09:11 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Keeps an eye out for any strange figures as he approaches the bar*
24 Mar 18, 09:11 AMThe Doctor
-awoken by the rather loud crash because oops he's still inside- !! -stays low in the booth and pulls his gun-
24 Mar 18, 09:10 AMAmadaeus [Nameless]
*Hears the glass break as he was turning the corner and hurries up towards the Alibi*
24 Mar 18, 08:29 AMScene Master
the front glass of the Alibi shatters, sending a figure crashing into a booth.

The Doctor Woke up at 9:10 AM

Spoke to Jewel Erlantz [Gaza / Boop], Fireantula [Dalia / Kadakism], Iggy Prospero [Iggy / Max!!], Lodestone [Ralf / Lazzy]

Doctor woke up from his 'nap', feeling like death warmed over. He had several confusing minutes before he was finally (mostly) filled in. He left to get food from the kitchen.

He spoke to Lodestone, Jewel, and Iggy, catching up on what had happened. After some bickering, the Doctor and a small group went to check for Fireantula's mask.

They didn't find it, but they did get a description of the culprit, who Fireantula recognized as being very similar to Taylor. When they interrogated him, and he confessed to being Copperhead, they let him go although several were skeptical.

Copperhead showed up not long after, clarifying that he was not Taylor. Doctor opted to remain behind while others went to find him.

24 Mar 18, 05:05 PMThe Doctor
I've got no speed. I'll stay.
24 Mar 18, 05:04 PMBlackout(Max)
Hm or should I go....
24 Mar 18, 05:04 PMTweak Harper
:| @blackout
24 Mar 18, 05:04 PMBlackout(Max)
I'll be on call
24 Mar 18, 05:04 PMBlackout(Max)
I can get in just about anywhere pretty fast
24 Mar 18, 05:03 PMTweak Harper
'M staying. Not much use anyway.
24 Mar 18, 05:03 PMBlackout(Max)
No one home @Tweak
24 Mar 18, 05:03 PMFireantula (Kada)
I say those of us who can cover ground quickly go. Leave one behind in case he shows up
24 Mar 18, 05:03 PMTweak Harper
*hangs up and goes back* ((yes I guessed that))
24 Mar 18, 05:03 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I think it goes without saying I should go. If the team gets in trouble, I could get help. Plus, I can do intel gathering.
24 Mar 18, 05:03 PMBlackout(Max)
..........
24 Mar 18, 05:02 PMScene Master
at Prospero HQ, in case it isn't obvious
24 Mar 18, 05:02 PMLodestone
=/c
24 Mar 18, 05:02 PMScene Master
The phone rings but no one picks up
24 Mar 18, 05:01 PMThe Doctor
So who's going, and who's staying?
24 Mar 18, 05:01 PMTweak Harper
*goes to call Prospero hq*
24 Mar 18, 05:00 PMThe Doctor
We aren't sure about a range.
24 Mar 18, 05:00 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I could definitely do that. Besides, it probably has a range, right? If things get hairy, I could probably just about get out of range.
24 Mar 18, 04:59 PMBlackout(Max)
That'll be easy to find =)
24 Mar 18, 04:59 PMTweak Harper
... I'm calling hq. Not leaving everything to the heroes.
24 Mar 18, 04:59 PMBlackout(Max)
. . . . .
24 Mar 18, 04:59 PMThe Doctor
Dash could run and find him, as long as they don't engage or draw attention, and then report where he is.
24 Mar 18, 04:59 PMFireantula (Kada)
Brown hair. Plain. Wears a hat. =|
24 Mar 18, 04:59 PMThe Doctor
Why don't a team go find him. Some of us can stay here in case he comes back.
24 Mar 18, 04:59 PMCopperhead
You could describe him.
24 Mar 18, 04:59 PMBlackout(Max)
We really need to think about this
24 Mar 18, 04:59 PMFireantula (Kada)
Do you even know what he looks like, Copperhead?
24 Mar 18, 04:58 PMCopperhead
Just about being cautious
24 Mar 18, 04:58 PMCopperhead
It aint about being stupid or smart.
24 Mar 18, 04:58 PMBlackout(Max)
But
24 Mar 18, 04:58 PMBlackout(Max)
I'm all for confronting this guy
24 Mar 18, 04:58 PMBlackout(Max)
That also doesn't mean you're smart....
24 Mar 18, 04:58 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will crosses his arms.* Just because I’m new, doesn’t mean I’m stupid! I’ve lived here my entire life. I know this place like the back of my hand.
24 Mar 18, 04:57 PMBlackout(Max)
We're still on that?
24 Mar 18, 04:57 PMFireantula (Kada)
I brought down the Wolf of West Town for Christ's sake
24 Mar 18, 04:57 PMBlackout(Max)
. . . .
24 Mar 18, 04:57 PMCopperhead
The seasoned professionals
24 Mar 18, 04:57 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I have faith we could take him!
24 Mar 18, 04:57 PMFireantula (Kada)
I am a professional.
24 Mar 18, 04:57 PMCopperhead
If you think he's hypno, you should leave it to the professionals. -looks at lodestone-
24 Mar 18, 04:56 PMThe Doctor
You're going to go confront Taylor? Knowing he might be Hypno?
24 Mar 18, 04:56 PMFireantula (Kada)
okay, Dash and I can find him.
24 Mar 18, 04:56 PMBlackout(Max)
This guy's serious business
24 Mar 18, 04:56 PMTweak Harper
S-should've cut his leg or s-something at least there'd be a trail.
24 Mar 18, 04:55 PMFireantula (Kada)
If you run across Hypno and he gets you...
24 Mar 18, 04:55 PMBlackout(Max)
Yeah
24 Mar 18, 04:55 PMFireantula (Kada)
Not alone you're not
24 Mar 18, 04:55 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I could do intel gathering. I can run across the entire city in no more than 5 minutes!
24 Mar 18, 04:54 PMBlackout(Max)
........Not anymore appaently
24 Mar 18, 04:54 PMFireantula (Kada)
I'm gonna torch that bastard...
24 Mar 18, 04:54 PMCopperhead
The only person who's me is... me.
24 Mar 18, 04:54 PMCopperhead
Wait, as me?
24 Mar 18, 04:54 PMFireantula (Kada)
Basically we're just doing recon and intel gathering for now.
24 Mar 18, 04:54 PMThe Doctor
It would seem that someone - Taylor from earlier - is passing themselves off as you, Copperhead.
24 Mar 18, 04:54 PMTweak Harper
.. need to be in groups. Can't fight one on one.
24 Mar 18, 04:53 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
So... what’s the next course of action? I think I’m a bit out of the loop, so bear with me... *He laughs awkwardly.*
24 Mar 18, 04:53 PMFireantula (Kada)
You ain't my daddy
24 Mar 18, 04:52 PMBlackout(Max)
. . . .
24 Mar 18, 04:52 PMCopperhead
Language, Fireantula.
24 Mar 18, 04:52 PMFireantula (Kada)
fucking shit!
24 Mar 18, 04:52 PMTweak Harper
<.< >.> I've been with Prospero a b-bit... not that I'm worth t-targetting.
24 Mar 18, 04:52 PMThe Doctor
...Interesting.
24 Mar 18, 04:52 PMBlackout(Max)
........Hm?
24 Mar 18, 04:52 PMCopperhead
...No?
24 Mar 18, 04:51 PMFireantula (Kada)
Copperhead, were you just here in civilian dress?
24 Mar 18, 04:51 PMBlackout(Max)
Why
24 Mar 18, 04:51 PMFireantula (Kada)
Christ, kid.
24 Mar 18, 04:51 PMBlackout(Max)
. . .
24 Mar 18, 04:51 PMLodestone
*waves to Copperhead*
24 Mar 18, 04:51 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will jumps again but this time with a scared yelp.*
24 Mar 18, 04:51 PMThe Doctor
-turns to look at copperhead- ...And him, he's been with the union a few years.
24 Mar 18, 04:51 PMBlackout(Max)
Iiiiit's Copperhead
24 Mar 18, 04:51 PMFireantula (Kada)
Copperhead!
24 Mar 18, 04:50 PMCopperhead
-peers in the broken window-
24 Mar 18, 04:50 PMFireantula (Kada)
Like I've been saying, they're taking out our strongest first
24 Mar 18, 04:50 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
Well... as you said, I can relay information! I’m pretty fast! *That’s an understatement.*
24 Mar 18, 04:50 PMThe Doctor
...Thinking about it, most of the targets were seasoned pros. The younger ones were all victims of opportunity.
24 Mar 18, 04:50 PMBlackout(Max)
So it's been quiet then?
24 Mar 18, 04:49 PMBlackout(Max)
mmhmm
24 Mar 18, 04:49 PMLodestone
...Yep. =|c
24 Mar 18, 04:48 PMThe Doctor
-nods- More or less the same. I think the only seasoned member here is Lodestone
24 Mar 18, 04:47 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
Oh! Um, I only joined recently. *He rubs the back of his neck awkwardly.*
24 Mar 18, 04:47 PMBlackout(Max)
Christ....
24 Mar 18, 04:47 PMFireantula (Kada)
very nearly was.
24 Mar 18, 04:46 PMBlackout(Max)
Could be worse, you could be dead
24 Mar 18, 04:46 PMThe Doctor
How long were you with the Union? @Dash
24 Mar 18, 04:46 PMBlackout(Max)
. . . .
24 Mar 18, 04:46 PMFireantula (Kada)
Yeah, yeah. It's me. I lost my mask.
24 Mar 18, 04:46 PMFireantula (Kada)
Be careful. I already blasted Green Dragon for sneaking up on us.
24 Mar 18, 04:45 PMBlackout(Max)
I know that voice =|c
24 Mar 18, 04:45 PMTweak Harper
*looks around.. they're the only Prospero right now. Twitchy.*
24 Mar 18, 04:45 PMLodestone
*nods to blackout*
24 Mar 18, 04:45 PMBlackout(Max)
Huh?
24 Mar 18, 04:44 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will once again feels really out of place. He shifts uncomfortably where he stands. He jumps at the sudden new arrival.*
24 Mar 18, 04:44 PMFireantula (Kada)
Blackout
24 Mar 18, 04:44 PMBlackout(Max)
*steps out of a shadow* Yep =)
24 Mar 18, 04:44 PMTweak Harper
But... nothing, everyone's more a threat than me :/
24 Mar 18, 04:43 PMFireantula (Kada)
Yeah... he got me. I- Angel saved me.
24 Mar 18, 04:43 PMThe Doctor
-takes a seat at one of the booths, looking pretty exhausted-
24 Mar 18, 04:43 PMTweak Harper
You. They got you, right? You were close were close enough to s-see? <.< >.> @Fireantula
24 Mar 18, 04:42 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will returns to normal at the idea of being useful.* Oh yeah I can definitely deliver information!
24 Mar 18, 04:41 PMLodestone
Yeah mind control.
24 Mar 18, 04:40 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*The easygoing look to Will drops for a moment.* Mind... control?
24 Mar 18, 04:40 PMThe Doctor
Having a runner would actually be helpful for delivering information. Calling headquarters only helps if the person we're after is there, and not on their way here
24 Mar 18, 04:40 PMFireantula (Kada)
Whoever it is, seems like they have mind control or something.
24 Mar 18, 04:40 PMTweak Harper
All we know is they don't like groups and ... hmm *frowns*
24 Mar 18, 04:40 PMFireantula (Kada)
Well we need all the help we can get.
24 Mar 18, 04:39 PMMister Taylor
-withdraws, not taking his eyes off fireantula-
24 Mar 18, 04:39 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
Oh... right the murders... *His tone drops.* I can help! I promise!
24 Mar 18, 04:38 PMIggy Prospero
*also takes his leave*
24 Mar 18, 04:37 PMThe Doctor
-gestures to Taylor- Fireantula suspects he's the man responsible for the murders.
24 Mar 18, 04:37 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will can’t feel like he’s arrived at a really bad time.* Uh... am I interrupting something?
24 Mar 18, 04:37 PMIggy Prospero
.........
24 Mar 18, 04:37 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Checks the time* ... *Slips out*
24 Mar 18, 04:37 PMMister Taylor
-sweats, jfc she scary-
24 Mar 18, 04:37 PMMister Taylor
...Point taken.
24 Mar 18, 04:36 PMFireantula (Kada)
I know your face
24 Mar 18, 04:36 PMFireantula (Kada)
I guess so... but
24 Mar 18, 04:36 PMTweak Harper
Just s-said it wouldn't
24 Mar 18, 04:36 PMMister Taylor
-inches away from Tweak-
24 Mar 18, 04:35 PMLodestone
How would cutting out his tongue solve anything?
24 Mar 18, 04:35 PMMister Taylor
So... can I... go now?
24 Mar 18, 04:35 PMThe Doctor
-totally didn't know his name, but at least he got it from fireantula-
24 Mar 18, 04:35 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will freezes again before he grins.* Guess I’m popular!
24 Mar 18, 04:35 PMTweak Harper
Fuck. Can't trust anyone. Hate this.
24 Mar 18, 04:35 PMTweak Harper
Wish we could just.. cut off his tongue or s-something. *sighs* guess that won't help if he is t-telling the truth.
24 Mar 18, 04:33 PMFireantula (Kada)
Dash, right?
24 Mar 18, 04:33 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
Uh... yeah! Yes I am! *He smiles.*
24 Mar 18, 04:33 PMThe Doctor
-glances at Dash, nods- You're Union as well, yes?
24 Mar 18, 04:32 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will enters quietly, freezing upon seeing other people.* Oh.
24 Mar 18, 04:32 PMThe Doctor
-under his breath- Everyone should have their ID number memorized.
24 Mar 18, 04:31 PMMister Taylor
At my hideout near here.
24 Mar 18, 04:30 PMLodestone
Where is your stuff?
24 Mar 18, 04:30 PMLodestone
.......
24 Mar 18, 04:30 PMTweak Harper
@doctor
24 Mar 18, 04:30 PMTweak Harper
fair enough.
24 Mar 18, 04:29 PMMister Taylor
My ID number - I don't have it memorized, it's in my stuff -
24 Mar 18, 04:29 PMThe Doctor
-gestures to HIS OWN MASK-
24 Mar 18, 04:29 PMThe Doctor
Even without a voice changer.
24 Mar 18, 04:29 PMThe Doctor
Most masks muffle voices anyway.
24 Mar 18, 04:29 PMTweak Harper
...Does his mask disguise his voice?
24 Mar 18, 04:28 PMFireantula (Kada)
Union ID number
24 Mar 18, 04:28 PMIggy Prospero
Anyone can be stupid
24 Mar 18, 04:27 PMThe Doctor
... How would that verify him, verbally?
24 Mar 18, 04:27 PMTweak Harper
Guess heroes can be s-stupid too.
24 Mar 18, 04:27 PMIggy Prospero
Call it
24 Mar 18, 04:27 PMLodestone
=/c
24 Mar 18, 04:27 PMFireantula (Kada)
That's true.
24 Mar 18, 04:27 PMIggy Prospero
There's a phone
24 Mar 18, 04:27 PMFireantula (Kada)
-growls and lets him go-
24 Mar 18, 04:27 PMMister Taylor
I can't check in if I'm here.
24 Mar 18, 04:27 PMThe Doctor
-returns- They said he's on undercover patrol right now, but they'll check in when he gets back.
24 Mar 18, 04:26 PMNoelle Dresdan
Fuck's sake...
24 Mar 18, 04:26 PMIggy Prospero
*puts his hand on his pistol*
24 Mar 18, 04:26 PMIggy Prospero
...........
24 Mar 18, 04:24 PMThe Doctor
...I can do it. One moment. -heads inside-
24 Mar 18, 04:24 PMMister Taylor
:mycannibal: W-wha-
24 Mar 18, 04:24 PMFireantula (Kada)
Somebody call HQ. See if Copperhead is on duty.
24 Mar 18, 04:24 PMFireantula (Kada)
-grabs him by his shirt, after she puts her fire out-
24 Mar 18, 04:24 PMIggy Prospero
Just for that
24 Mar 18, 04:23 PMIggy Prospero
I kind of want to shoot you
24 Mar 18, 04:23 PMNoelle Dresdan
....
24 Mar 18, 04:23 PMIggy Prospero
Did you just....
24 Mar 18, 04:23 PMFireantula (Kada)
. . .
24 Mar 18, 04:23 PMMister Taylor
I'm - I'm copperhead. Snake hero. Hiss hiss? :ohshitneko:
24 Mar 18, 04:23 PMFireantula (Kada)
Two.
24 Mar 18, 04:23 PMNoelle Dresdan
She's serious, pal. Think you should spill.
24 Mar 18, 04:22 PMTweak Harper
Really bad time for s-secrets
24 Mar 18, 04:22 PMIggy Prospero
I'd do it.....
24 Mar 18, 04:22 PMFireantula (Kada)
One.
24 Mar 18, 04:22 PMThe Doctor
-is silent... but also kinda judging Fireantula-
24 Mar 18, 04:22 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Pulls out a cigarillo as she watches*
24 Mar 18, 04:22 PMFireantula (Kada)
I'll give you to the count of three. Gimme your fucking name or I torch your ass.
24 Mar 18, 04:21 PMMister Taylor
I didn't know anything about any of that
24 Mar 18, 04:20 PMFireantula (Kada)
((Lynch**))
24 Mar 18, 04:20 PMFireantula (Kada)
Not when I was made to lunch myself.
24 Mar 18, 04:20 PMFireantula (Kada)
Not when people are fucking dead
24 Mar 18, 04:20 PMMister Taylor
I prefer to keep my identity a secret. That... that's my right.
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMFireantula (Kada)
What's your name, hero?
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMFireantula (Kada)
Oh?
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMMister Taylor
I'm a... a hero.
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMMister Taylor
lots of people have brown hair!
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMFireantula (Kada)
But you don't do anything.
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMTweak Harper
*not gonna mess with the girl on fire* umm..
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMFireantula (Kada)
A lot a lot.
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMFireantula (Kada)
And you hang around a lot.
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMMister Taylor
:shockneko:
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMFireantula (Kada)
Someone has been fucking with us. And what I caught of him, he's a plain looking guy with brown hair.
24 Mar 18, 04:19 PMMister Taylor
-takes a step back-
24 Mar 18, 04:18 PMFireantula (Kada)
-takes a step forward-
24 Mar 18, 04:17 PMThe Doctor
Unless Hypno is particularly stupid.
24 Mar 18, 04:17 PMThe Doctor
...This seems like a poor idea.
24 Mar 18, 04:17 PMMister Taylor
:ohshitneko: Uhm, hold on
24 Mar 18, 04:17 PMFireantula (Kada)
-ignites her hand-
24 Mar 18, 04:17 PMMister Taylor
...Huh? -INCREASINGLY CONFUSED-
24 Mar 18, 04:17 PMNoelle Dresdan
:orlyllama:
24 Mar 18, 04:17 PMFireantula (Kada)
Whatcha guys think? Hypno shouldn't have any issues stopping me, eh?
24 Mar 18, 04:16 PMTweak Harper
:|c
24 Mar 18, 04:16 PMNoelle Dresdan
......
24 Mar 18, 04:16 PMFireantula (Kada)
-grimaces-
24 Mar 18, 04:16 PMIggy Prospero
...........
24 Mar 18, 04:16 PMThe Doctor
-glances over and stares at Taylor as Fireantula points it out-
24 Mar 18, 04:16 PMMister Taylor
...Huh?
24 Mar 18, 04:15 PMFireantula (Kada)
But you're around a lot. And you have brown hair. And you're kind of plain.
24 Mar 18, 04:15 PMFireantula (Kada)
I don't know.
24 Mar 18, 04:14 PMMister Taylor
-heads in with the group, and notices Fireantula staring- Sorry, have we met?
24 Mar 18, 04:14 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Heads inside*
24 Mar 18, 04:14 PMFireantula (Kada)
-stares at Taylor-
24 Mar 18, 04:13 PMFireantula (Kada)
=\
24 Mar 18, 04:13 PMTweak Harper
*heads back in*
24 Mar 18, 04:13 PMLodestone
*follows the group back in*
24 Mar 18, 04:12 PMNoelle Dresdan
Right, let's go back...
24 Mar 18, 04:12 PMMister Taylor
:watusayneko: -spots everyone- Oh good, I was wondering where everyone had gone.
24 Mar 18, 04:12 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Sighs, rubs her face* I don't know...could be part of this.
24 Mar 18, 04:12 PMThe Doctor
-trots back-
24 Mar 18, 04:11 PMTweak Harper
Yeah.. head back? *will walk with Noelle if she goes back*
24 Mar 18, 04:10 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Considers for a long moment* ...
24 Mar 18, 04:09 PMFireantula (Kada)
Right... -starts heading back-
24 Mar 18, 04:09 PMTweak Harper
*looks at Noelle* not s-sure yet.
24 Mar 18, 04:09 PMThe Doctor
Either way, we should return to the Alibi
24 Mar 18, 04:08 PMFireantula (Kada)
What are we whispering about?
24 Mar 18, 04:07 PMFireantula (Kada)
-lights up a cigarette with her hand-
24 Mar 18, 04:06 PMTweak Harper
:/ @Noelle
24 Mar 18, 04:06 PMTweak Harper
M-maybe they've already done it... they've already got inside heads.
24 Mar 18, 04:05 PMNoelle Dresdan
...Yeah. It rings a bell.
24 Mar 18, 04:03 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Considers Tweak's question* ...
24 Mar 18, 04:03 PMFireantula (Kada)
Yeah...
24 Mar 18, 04:03 PMThe Doctor
Similarly, if Fireantula walked into the Union headquarters, would anyone be shocked?
24 Mar 18, 04:03 PMNoelle Dresdan
Oh, people tell me all the time, 'Hey I saw you in your armor at this location earlier.' That's how I found out about this damn copy, because...I was nowhere near those locations.
24 Mar 18, 04:01 PMThe Doctor
Potentially. For example, if the Green Dragon walked by, would anyone be surprised? Would anyone think anything other then 'oh, it's her?'
24 Mar 18, 04:01 PMTweak Harper
<.< >.> *whispers a question to Noelle*
24 Mar 18, 04:01 PMFireantula (Kada)
So what do we think, they're planning on using mask identities to infiltrate places and hurt our organization?
24 Mar 18, 04:00 PMNoelle Dresdan
They're slippery as can be. No idea what they're doing. What their motivation is. Whose side they're on, if they have a side.
24 Mar 18, 04:00 PMNoelle Dresdan
...*mumbles* Not much :blehneko:
24 Mar 18, 03:59 PMTweak Harper
any leads at all?
24 Mar 18, 03:58 PMNoelle Dresdan
Not long...maybe a month before The Alexandrian and Starbright were offed...
24 Mar 18, 03:56 PMTweak Harper
*quietly to Noelle* how long your copy been around?
24 Mar 18, 03:54 PMIggy Prospero
Some information is better than none
24 Mar 18, 03:54 PMNoelle Dresdan
... *Goes over to him* What?
24 Mar 18, 03:54 PMIggy Prospero
That's fair
24 Mar 18, 03:54 PMThe Doctor
This is good information, at least. It rules out a lot of people.
24 Mar 18, 03:54 PMTweak Harper
Want to ask you s-something
24 Mar 18, 03:54 PMFireantula (Kada)
Nothing I can recall. I was kind of preoccupied tying a noose.
24 Mar 18, 03:53 PMIggy Prospero
=|c
24 Mar 18, 03:53 PMMister Taylor
-arrives at the Alibi, finding the window smashed-
24 Mar 18, 03:53 PMIggy Prospero
No build?
24 Mar 18, 03:53 PMIggy Prospero
Nothing distinguishing then?
24 Mar 18, 03:53 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Raises eyebrow at Tweak* What, Tweaky?
24 Mar 18, 03:53 PMFireantula (Kada)
short brown hair. blue collar worker type
24 Mar 18, 03:53 PMLodestone
Plain....
24 Mar 18, 03:52 PMFireantula (Kada)
I dunno. They were... plain?
24 Mar 18, 03:52 PMIggy Prospero
If you say so....
24 Mar 18, 03:52 PMTweak Harper
*looks at Noelle, thinking. Motions her over*
24 Mar 18, 03:52 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Shrugs* It's fine.
24 Mar 18, 03:51 PMIggy Prospero
How do you even breathe in that thing @Noelle
24 Mar 18, 03:50 PMIggy Prospero
Take your time
24 Mar 18, 03:50 PMFireantula (Kada)
let me think
24 Mar 18, 03:49 PMFireantula (Kada)
I dunno, I...
24 Mar 18, 03:49 PMTweak Harper
They may b-be anyone :/
24 Mar 18, 03:49 PMFireantula (Kada)
Maybe, who even knows?
24 Mar 18, 03:49 PMIggy Prospero
How good of a look did you get? @Firantula
24 Mar 18, 03:49 PMThe Doctor
The voice was male, unless they can change it.
24 Mar 18, 03:49 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Pulls her helmet off* :/
24 Mar 18, 03:49 PMIggy Prospero
Does that mean they may be female....
24 Mar 18, 03:48 PMThe Doctor
So the mask is missing, possibly taken by Hypno.
24 Mar 18, 03:48 PMIggy Prospero
We should head back
24 Mar 18, 03:48 PMScene Master
Looking around, you don't find Fireantula's mask
24 Mar 18, 03:47 PMLodestone
All I have is this helmet...hmm
24 Mar 18, 03:46 PMIggy Prospero
This is why you don't run around in full suits of armor
24 Mar 18, 03:46 PMTweak Harper
*pokes around the alley* all these masks! Be s-so much easier people couldn't hide like that.
24 Mar 18, 03:46 PMIggy Prospero
Yes they can
24 Mar 18, 03:45 PMThe Green Dragon
Yeah, then they can blame ME for shit :blehneko:
24 Mar 18, 03:45 PMFireantula (Kada)
true...
24 Mar 18, 03:45 PMThe Doctor
If someone disguised themselves as a hero in full costume, they would be easy to impersonate and get around without being caught.
24 Mar 18, 03:45 PMThe Green Dragon
....H-hm.
24 Mar 18, 03:44 PMThe Doctor
...or I suppose three things, if you count the murders.
24 Mar 18, 03:44 PMThe Doctor
Their copy. -gestures to Green Dragon- And your missing mask.
24 Mar 18, 03:44 PMTweak Harper
Yeah...
24 Mar 18, 03:44 PMFireantula (Kada)
what two things?
24 Mar 18, 03:44 PMThe Doctor
...THe possibility exists that these two things aren't unconnected.
24 Mar 18, 03:43 PMIggy Prospero
. . . .
24 Mar 18, 03:42 PMThe Green Dragon
*Clicks her tongue* I saw my copy. I went after them. But they...fucked off.
24 Mar 18, 03:41 PMIggy Prospero
Well apparently you were
24 Mar 18, 03:41 PMThe Green Dragon
Hm...with how elaborate that thing is, it shouldn't be -that- hard to find...
24 Mar 18, 03:41 PMTweak Harper
S-shouldn't you be looking for your copy, 's-stead of playing games?
24 Mar 18, 03:40 PMThe Doctor
...We are looking for her mask. -gestures to Fireantula-
24 Mar 18, 03:38 PMTweak Harper
Don't apologize that was s-stupid.
24 Mar 18, 03:38 PMThe Green Dragon
*Rolls her eyes* Whatever...
24 Mar 18, 03:38 PMIggy Prospero
Idiot
24 Mar 18, 03:38 PMIggy Prospero
announce yourself we don't have time to be sneaking around and playing games
24 Mar 18, 03:38 PMThe Doctor
...You do not need to apologize for that.
24 Mar 18, 03:38 PMFireantula (Kada)
S-sorry...
24 Mar 18, 03:37 PMFireantula (Kada)
Oh fuck...
24 Mar 18, 03:36 PMThe Green Dragon
*Doesn't react to the punch, but moves to avoid the fire. It hits her arm and singes her armor* Tsh...
24 Mar 18, 03:35 PMThe Doctor
-sidesteps away from the damage as FIRE STARTS GETTING THROWN-
24 Mar 18, 03:35 PMTweak Harper
!! Fuck, what is wrong with you p-people?! @Noelle
24 Mar 18, 03:33 PMLodestone
WOAH
24 Mar 18, 03:33 PMTweak Harper
! *turns around and punches at Noelle, ineffectively*
24 Mar 18, 03:33 PMIggy Prospero
:despairllama:
24 Mar 18, 03:32 PMFireantula (Kada)
-turns around and throws a blast of fire at Noelle reflexively- [Blast: 5]
24 Mar 18, 03:32 PMIggy Prospero
. . . . .
24 Mar 18, 03:31 PMNoelle Dresdan
*Sneaks up behind Tweak* Boo.
24 Mar 18, 03:30 PMLodestone
*also looks around*
24 Mar 18, 03:30 PMTweak Harper
*looking around, not still at all*
24 Mar 18, 03:28 PMFireantula (Kada)
yeah...
24 Mar 18, 03:28 PMThe Doctor
... I'll go first. If I say anything about voices, assume they're nearby.
24 Mar 18, 03:27 PMFireantula (Kada)
-stops at the alleyway- h-here
24 Mar 18, 03:26 PMIggy Prospero
Let's try to make this quick T.T
24 Mar 18, 03:24 PMTweak Harper
<.< >.> *never let their guard down to begin with*
24 Mar 18, 03:23 PMIggy Prospero
*sighs and follows along keeping his guard up*
24 Mar 18, 03:22 PMThe Doctor
-remains close to the group, wary-
24 Mar 18, 03:22 PMFireantula (Kada)
-leads the way, kinda watching her surroundings nervously-
24 Mar 18, 03:21 PMLodestone
To the alley!
24 Mar 18, 03:20 PMFireantula (Kada)
er, the alley anyway.
24 Mar 18, 03:20 PMTweak Harper
C-coming. *follows*
24 Mar 18, 03:19 PMFireantula (Kada)
-follows along- I'll go since I know where it is.
24 Mar 18, 03:19 PMThe Doctor
-heads to the door- Who's coming and who's going?
24 Mar 18, 03:19 PMFireantula (Kada)
Alright...
24 Mar 18, 03:17 PMTweak Harper
Yes! Let's in-look for your mask!
24 Mar 18, 03:15 PMTweak Harper
Didn't think you were. Just like talking to p-people I know.
24 Mar 18, 03:15 PMThe Doctor
...I vote we go investigate and check for your mask. @Fireantula
24 Mar 18, 03:15 PMLodestone
Yeah neautral turf
24 Mar 18, 03:15 PMIggy Prospero
Even if someone is breaking the rules
24 Mar 18, 03:14 PMIggy Prospero
We're still on neutral turf
24 Mar 18, 03:14 PMIggy Prospero
Calm down
24 Mar 18, 03:13 PMFireantula (Kada)
We aren't going to fucking jump you for Christ's sake!
24 Mar 18, 03:13 PMTweak Harper
I umm... *twitchy* *looks at Iggy* outnumbered by heroes here :/
24 Mar 18, 03:11 PMIggy Prospero
Anyone could be behind this for any number of reasons
24 Mar 18, 03:11 PMIggy Prospero
They've got us all running around
24 Mar 18, 03:11 PMIggy Prospero
O course not
24 Mar 18, 03:11 PMThe Doctor
We have no leads, no.
24 Mar 18, 03:09 PMTweak Harper
<.< >.> we s-still don't know who it could be?
24 Mar 18, 03:06 PMTweak Harper
Want to kill them and be done with it...
24 Mar 18, 03:06 PMIggy Prospero
There's no doubt they hate everyone
24 Mar 18, 03:05 PMTweak Harper
If neither s-side would take them *shrugs* too many reasons.
24 Mar 18, 03:05 PMLodestone
Maybe it screwed them over...maybe they just hate everyone....eh
24 Mar 18, 03:05 PMIggy Prospero
But I'd rather have them confirmed by them
24 Mar 18, 03:04 PMIggy Prospero
I have a few ideas myself
24 Mar 18, 03:04 PMThe Doctor
-stares at Iggy for several moments- I can think of a few dozen reasons.
24 Mar 18, 03:04 PMTweak Harper
S-someone s-slipped through the cracks.
24 Mar 18, 03:03 PMIggy Prospero
But why.... =|c
24 Mar 18, 03:03 PMIggy Prospero
Possibly
24 Mar 18, 03:02 PMFireantula (Kada)
Could be, yeah.
24 Mar 18, 03:02 PMThe Doctor
Doing this threatens to destroy the system entirely.
24 Mar 18, 03:02 PMThe Doctor
I think it's someone with a vendetta against masks on both sides.
24 Mar 18, 03:00 PMTweak Harper
... not really my thing. 'S like they're trying t-to get us together! Crazy!
24 Mar 18, 03:00 PMIggy Prospero
I'm not sure anymore
24 Mar 18, 03:00 PMIggy Prospero
I did.....
24 Mar 18, 03:00 PMIggy Prospero
Or
24 Mar 18, 02:59 PMIggy Prospero
I am, that's why I think it's a takeover
24 Mar 18, 02:59 PMFireantula (Kada)
I mean, you guys are all about fear and intimidation right? Think about it from how you would do things.
24 Mar 18, 02:58 PMLodestone
Yeah....
24 Mar 18, 02:58 PMIggy Prospero
We all hate this
24 Mar 18, 02:58 PMTweak Harper
You're right. Hate this.
24 Mar 18, 02:58 PMIggy Prospero
If you're smart you know how to play your abilities up
24 Mar 18, 02:57 PMTweak Harper
S-sure. Right. Don't panic!
24 Mar 18, 02:57 PMIggy Prospero
All powers have limits
24 Mar 18, 02:57 PMIggy Prospero
I don't think they do
24 Mar 18, 02:57 PMTweak Harper
Alleys <.< >.> *shrugs* nowhere s-safe.
24 Mar 18, 02:57 PMFireantula (Kada)
We can't assume they just have infinite powers
24 Mar 18, 02:56 PMTweak Harper
Unless t-they can look like us too!! Hope not. Should.. shouldn't b-be a problem.
24 Mar 18, 02:56 PMIggy Prospero
Well, relatively
24 Mar 18, 02:56 PMThe Doctor
We could go as a group
24 Mar 18, 02:55 PMIggy Prospero
I think it's safe now...
24 Mar 18, 02:55 PMIggy Prospero
.........
24 Mar 18, 02:54 PMFireantula (Kada)
I was kinda scared to be back in that alley
24 Mar 18, 02:54 PMFireantula (Kada)
I took a quick look on my way back, but nothing too extensive.
24 Mar 18, 02:54 PMThe Doctor
Have you looked?
24 Mar 18, 02:53 PMFireantula (Kada)
No...
24 Mar 18, 02:53 PMTweak Harper
Good. Good... you never f-found your mask? @Fireantula
24 Mar 18, 02:51 PMThe Doctor
Not since this morning, no.
24 Mar 18, 02:51 PMTweak Harper
*jumpy* any more t-trouble here?
24 Mar 18, 02:50 PMThe Doctor
I never left, no. I do not live here.
24 Mar 18, 02:50 PMTweak Harper
! Do you live here? @doctor
24 Mar 18, 02:49 PMFireantula (Kada)
Right... well, I need a drink regardless. -goes to make something-
24 Mar 18, 02:49 PMTweak Harper
<.< >.>
24 Mar 18, 02:49 PMLodestone
I'm fine
24 Mar 18, 02:49 PMIggy Prospero
I don't drink on the job T.T
24 Mar 18, 02:48 PMThe Doctor
I ate, thank you.
24 Mar 18, 02:48 PMFireantula (Kada)
-looks at the floor- I'm gonna make myself a drink. Anyone want anything?
24 Mar 18, 02:48 PMLodestone
Makes sense....
24 Mar 18, 02:47 PMIggy Prospero
I don't know you people, there should be someone on the family's end to report in case things get crazy again
24 Mar 18, 02:47 PMJewel Erlantz
((Yeah she got her mom to send someone))
24 Mar 18, 02:46 PMFireantula (Kada)
You say that li- oh...
24 Mar 18, 02:45 PMIggy Prospero
This could be worse
24 Mar 18, 02:45 PMIggy Prospero
Which leaves me stuck with three heroes....
24 Mar 18, 02:45 PMFireantula (Kada)
We don't have enough people for an ideal set up.
24 Mar 18, 02:44 PMThe Doctor
As long as she's wish someone, collateral can be minimized
24 Mar 18, 02:44 PMIggy Prospero
And yet she leaves.....
24 Mar 18, 02:44 PMLodestone
Hm.
24 Mar 18, 02:41 PMJewel Erlantz
Maybe. Or they just get in other people's heads. :/ whatever. I'm not going out alone. But I'm not gonna stay here waiting. *runs off to call her mom and leave*
24 Mar 18, 02:41 PMFireantula (Kada)
-sulks back in-
24 Mar 18, 02:39 PMThe Doctor
I was likely a target of opportunity, but both Stitch and Placebo were chosen.
24 Mar 18, 02:38 PMLodestone
Hmmm. Next best move would be to keep healers on watch then if they are primary targets.
24 Mar 18, 02:36 PMJewel Erlantz
Training don't seem to matter, here.
24 Mar 18, 02:36 PMThe Doctor
I heal. But I have no formal medical training.
24 Mar 18, 02:35 PMJewel Erlantz
You're kinda funny for a hero, mister. You're a doctor, then?
24 Mar 18, 02:34 PMJewel Erlantz
Or anyone who gets too close to catching them
24 Mar 18, 02:34 PMThe Doctor
Or those with the potential to save lives of victims.
24 Mar 18, 02:34 PMThe Doctor
It wasn't intended to be. Doctors seem to be the primary targets.
24 Mar 18, 02:33 PMJewel Erlantz
.. hardly reassuring.
24 Mar 18, 02:32 PMThe Doctor
Targets are chosen without any regard to rank.
24 Mar 18, 02:30 PMJewel Erlantz
Yeah... Just worried about my family. Who knows who'll be next...
24 Mar 18, 02:30 PMLodestone
Of course that could change....
24 Mar 18, 02:29 PMLodestone
Yes. Hypno is targetting this place specificly
24 Mar 18, 02:29 PMThe Doctor
This place is the obvious target.
24 Mar 18, 02:28 PMJewel Erlantz
Don't care about other cities, meant other buildings.
24 Mar 18, 02:26 PMLodestone
And if you mean other cities then no @Jewel
24 Mar 18, 02:25 PMJewel Erlantz
You were apparently unconscious, I wasn't asking you mister. @doctor
24 Mar 18, 02:25 PMLodestone
When I took Placebo's body to the HQ .....
24 Mar 18, 02:24 PMThe Doctor
I haven't left, so I wouldn't know.
24 Mar 18, 02:24 PMJewel Erlantz
anyone heard anything about this happening other places? Or is someone just picking on us here?
24 Mar 18, 02:21 PMJewel Erlantz
*returns*
24 Mar 18, 02:17 PMIggy Prospero
You were unconcious
24 Mar 18, 02:16 PMThe Doctor
When was the last time you were here?
24 Mar 18, 02:16 PMIggy Prospero
More or less
24 Mar 18, 02:16 PMLodestone
Everything has been calm since the last time I was here?
24 Mar 18, 02:14 PMJewel Erlantz
Sure... I'm just gonna make a call. I'm not about to go off on my own. *heads in back to phone*
24 Mar 18, 02:14 PMThe Doctor
-glances over, spots Lodestone and nods-
24 Mar 18, 02:13 PMLodestone
*Walks on in*
24 Mar 18, 02:13 PMIggy Prospero
Yeah......
24 Mar 18, 02:12 PMThe Doctor
Things are unlikely to return to normal.
24 Mar 18, 02:11 PMJewel Erlantz
This.. I want things to be normal again. Even if everyone's "working together" right now.
24 Mar 18, 02:09 PMThe Doctor
It would seem. They effected me and the doctor seemed fine.
24 Mar 18, 02:07 PMJewel Erlantz
Still. It's a matter of range for us. It was only one person though?
24 Mar 18, 02:05 PMThe Doctor
-returns from the kitchen, adjusting his mask back into place-
24 Mar 18, 02:05 PMIggy Prospero
I don't think it's a matter of range for this person
24 Mar 18, 02:04 PMJewel Erlantz
Seems like ... We don't want to get close.
24 Mar 18, 02:04 PMIggy Prospero
*sighs*
24 Mar 18, 02:01 PMThe Doctor
-getting foooooood in the kitchen-
24 Mar 18, 01:59 PMJewel Erlantz
It's your fault for choosing a ridiculous name, but fine Dalia.
24 Mar 18, 01:59 PMIggy Prospero
Technically she's an arachnid
24 Mar 18, 01:58 PMFireantula (Kada)
I have a name. You can call me by either, but do. not. call me. Bug.
24 Mar 18, 01:57 PMJewel Erlantz
Oh we're just kids and you know it, no need to be cranky, bug.
24 Mar 18, 01:56 PMFireantula (Kada)
What is that supposed to mean? @Jewel
24 Mar 18, 01:56 PMIggy Prospero
Then put a bullet in his head
24 Mar 18, 01:56 PMJewel Erlantz
Oh so it's just cause you got close. Wondered why they'd go after you.
24 Mar 18, 01:55 PMIggy Prospero
When we run into this trash
24 Mar 18, 01:55 PMIggy Prospero
We need a strategy for when this happens
24 Mar 18, 01:55 PMFireantula (Kada)
I cornered them, but... I didn't get a look at their face. They... -frowns-
24 Mar 18, 01:54 PMFireantula (Kada)
I was ahead of him. He told me to go after them, so I swung ahead.
24 Mar 18, 01:52 PMJewel Erlantz
*looks at Fireantula* you were with Angel when they got into your head?
24 Mar 18, 01:47 PMThe Doctor
-pushes himself up, looks a bit wobbly, and heads into the back room-
24 Mar 18, 01:46 PMFireantula (Kada)
Probably. I think the bartender left the place to us or something.
24 Mar 18, 01:46 PMIggy Prospero
It's likely
24 Mar 18, 01:46 PMThe Doctor
...I need food. Is there any in the back?
24 Mar 18, 01:45 PMFireantula (Kada)
It does.
24 Mar 18, 01:45 PMJewel Erlantz
*frowns* this sucks.
24 Mar 18, 01:44 PMFireantula (Kada)
To go report to the bosses
24 Mar 18, 01:44 PMIggy Prospero
Yeah
24 Mar 18, 01:44 PMJewel Erlantz
And then Angel left?
24 Mar 18, 01:43 PMFireantula (Kada)
-rubs her neck-
24 Mar 18, 01:43 PMIggy Prospero
And use our powers against us
24 Mar 18, 01:43 PMJewel Erlantz
So. There's someone out there. Who can put voices in our head. Shit...
24 Mar 18, 01:43 PMFireantula (Kada)
They got away cause I pulled ahead to catch them and they... got in my head.
24 Mar 18, 01:43 PMThe Doctor
Placebo died. There was someone who Angel and Fireantula went after. Someone is controlling minds?
24 Mar 18, 01:43 PMFireantula (Kada)
Angel and I chased someone
24 Mar 18, 01:42 PMIggy Prospero
Everything I just told you
24 Mar 18, 01:41 PMThe Doctor
Placebo came through the window. I tried to heal them. There was a voice... a voice in my head telling me to help, but the healing wasn't working, so I just healed harder and passed out. Amadaeus was here as well. What happened after that?
24 Mar 18, 01:41 PMIggy Prospero
Placebo's dead now
24 Mar 18, 01:40 PMJewel Erlantz
I know. So what is going on?
24 Mar 18, 01:40 PMIggy Prospero
You weren't @Jewel
24 Mar 18, 01:40 PMJewel Erlantz
*wasn't
24 Mar 18, 01:40 PMIggy Prospero
You heard that voice in your head, no?
24 Mar 18, 01:40 PMJewel Erlantz
Wait - control? Let's pretend I want here for anything.
24 Mar 18, 01:40 PMIggy Prospero
Also seems to use our powers against us, hence why you healed Placebo past your own limits
24 Mar 18, 01:39 PMThe Doctor
Hold on, control?
24 Mar 18, 01:39 PMJewel Erlantz
:D good thing you showed up then.
24 Mar 18, 01:39 PMIggy Prospero
I don't think this person can control more than one of us at a time
24 Mar 18, 01:38 PMIggy Prospero
There's really not too much to tell aside from "stay in groups"
24 Mar 18, 01:38 PMIggy Prospero
I wasn't actually there for that
24 Mar 18, 01:37 PMIggy Prospero
Chase with the perp almost cost you guys two evidently
24 Mar 18, 01:37 PMJewel Erlantz
What did happen?
24 Mar 18, 01:36 PMThe Doctor
...Care to fill me in, then? @Iggy
24 Mar 18, 01:36 PMIggy Prospero
I guess no one wants to come here after what happened
24 Mar 18, 01:35 PMFireantula (Kada)
I came in with Angel. We chased someone we think was the perp
24 Mar 18, 01:35 PMJewel Erlantz
*slides over to Iggy* nothing. Just glad to see family.
24 Mar 18, 01:35 PMIggy Prospero
A decent bit, actually
24 Mar 18, 01:34 PMThe Doctor
What happened after I passed otu?
24 Mar 18, 01:33 PMIggy Prospero
What? T.T
24 Mar 18, 01:33 PMJewel Erlantz
*shoots a look at Fireantula* anyone who isn't- Iggy!
24 Mar 18, 01:33 PMIggy Prospero
*wanders back in*
24 Mar 18, 01:32 PMThe Doctor
... -rubs at temples- He was here too? I missed a lot. ...I think Amadaeus stabbed me.
24 Mar 18, 01:31 PMFireantula (Kada)
-goes to say something, but decides to shut up-
24 Mar 18, 01:30 PMJewel Erlantz
Not being alone sounds like a good idea. Too bad I can't find anyone.
24 Mar 18, 01:29 PMJewel Erlantz
Probly doing his freaky experiments. We get all the freaks. :|
24 Mar 18, 01:29 PMFireantula (Kada)
Depsite Angel telling people not to go off alone.
24 Mar 18, 01:28 PMFireantula (Kada)
I dunno. He left.
24 Mar 18, 01:28 PMThe Doctor
What happened to him?
24 Mar 18, 01:28 PMJewel Erlantz
Oh him. He's weird.
24 Mar 18, 01:28 PMThe Doctor
One of yours. Amadaeus.
24 Mar 18, 01:27 PMFireantula (Kada)
One of our- yours. Amadaeus
24 Mar 18, 01:27 PMJewel Erlantz
This entire situations fucked up. Who was the other doc?
24 Mar 18, 01:27 PMFireantula (Kada)
Placebo doesn't... didn't heal people. They, like, stagnated people.
24 Mar 18, 01:27 PMThe Doctor
They weren't as bad. When I started healing them, they got worse.
24 Mar 18, 01:26 PMFireantula (Kada)
Don't... you can't blame yourself. Placebo was fucked up.
24 Mar 18, 01:26 PMThe Doctor
-stares into the air- I think my powers killed them.
24 Mar 18, 01:25 PMThe Doctor
I think it was me.
24 Mar 18, 01:25 PMFireantula (Kada)
Yeah...
24 Mar 18, 01:25 PMFireantula (Kada)
I dunno... I helped Lodestone take Placebo's body to HQ
24 Mar 18, 01:25 PMThe Doctor
Did they die? They were dying.
24 Mar 18, 01:24 PMFireantula (Kada)
-grimaces- Yeah. And the blood he pulled from Placebo, I think.
24 Mar 18, 01:24 PMJewel Erlantz
Lost your mask fire bug?
24 Mar 18, 01:24 PMThe Doctor
What blood?
24 Mar 18, 01:24 PMJewel Erlantz
I said I just got here, even the bartender is gone.
24 Mar 18, 01:23 PMFireantula (Kada)
He left to test that blood, I guess.

SUPERHERO AU

The Doctor headed to the Alibi at 10:50 AM.

Spoke to Iggy Prospero [Iggy / Max!!], Unstoppable Dash [Sam / WuffyWuff], Sunshine [Iolite / Foxy]

The Doctor arrived from the police station, having just heard about the break-in at the Halcyon City Times building. The paper arrived, detailing that exact story. Noting that Dash was injured, the Doctor offered to heal him, pointing out he was behaving strangely and earning an unwarranted (in his opinion) apology.

Dash confessed to being behind the break in, and the Doctor comforted him in his very direct way, explaining why he'd become a hero at all. There was the sound of sirens in the distance, and they headed to check it out.

They discovered a burning building, with Flashpoint inside, having gone insane and started using his powers. Dash opted to run inside and attempt to help despite the Doctor's advice, and the Doctor briefly attempted to assist Sunshine with her plan, only for it to fail. He returned in time to heal Flashpoint and Dash.

They met up with Copperhead and exchanged information with the Prosperos, getting a good idea of what was going on before leaving for the station.

25 Mar 18, 12:48 PMThe Doctor
-Doctor is going to head to the station so I don't have to play him for a moment-
25 Mar 18, 12:48 PMScene Master
Fast forwarding a bit here for brevity.
25 Mar 18, 12:48 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Heads back to the car with Iggy and Tweak.)
25 Mar 18, 12:47 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*After a couple of moments, Will sprints off to search the city.*
25 Mar 18, 12:47 PMIggy Prospero
Let''s go then
25 Mar 18, 12:47 PMTweak Harper
*yup sticking with sunshine*
25 Mar 18, 12:46 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I doubt 'B' would target me, anyway. *He laughs lightly.* I'll head back to the Alibi as soon as I learn anything or I don't find anything.
25 Mar 18, 12:46 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Looks like we have lists to get and questions to ask Angel! :D
25 Mar 18, 12:46 PMThe Doctor
8)
25 Mar 18, 12:46 PMCopperhead
Yeah. *he waves to another Union Worker and gives everyone a nod before jogging off*
25 Mar 18, 12:46 PMThe Doctor
I'll go back to the alibi. And wait.
25 Mar 18, 12:46 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Stands up, ready to go to HQ with Iggy and Tweak to look for Dalia.)
25 Mar 18, 12:46 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Remember to stay in pairs, at least.
25 Mar 18, 12:45 PMCopperhead
Alright. I'll catch up to you all later. Give the HQ a call if anything comes up.
25 Mar 18, 12:45 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I'll look around, like I did before. *He gets ready to start searching the city, but he isn't optimistic he'll be able to find Taylor.*
25 Mar 18, 12:45 PMThe Doctor
-nods- I also assumed he was Scythe.
25 Mar 18, 12:45 PMSunshine (Foxy)
For now our plan works and it'll help us to come up with where we go next. Hopefully we can catch B before his next attack.
25 Mar 18, 12:45 PMCopperhead
Most of us assume he's Scythe.
25 Mar 18, 12:45 PMIggy Prospero
I never paid attention to him before this
25 Mar 18, 12:45 PMCopperhead
Yeah, I know the rumors.
25 Mar 18, 12:45 PMSunshine (Foxy)
There are rumors...
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMTweak Harper
Don't know anything about him. :|
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMSunshine (Foxy)
But...
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMCopperhead
Hm...
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I don't think Taylor is affiliated it either group...
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMCopperhead
I mean, it seems like each hit was one from each side.
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMSunshine (Foxy)
No. We're not.
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMCopperhead
Although. Are we sure Taylor is affiliated with either group?
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMSunshine (Foxy)
We can compare.
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMSunshine (Foxy)
We'll get a bigger list of investigators as well.
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMIggy Prospero
Sounds like a plan
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMMega Mega
I also have no...contact info :')
25 Mar 18, 12:44 PMThe Doctor
Taylor is neutral. It would make sense it's either a single person, or a second neutral party.
25 Mar 18, 12:43 PMCopperhead
I'll go round up a list of possible other targets and meet you all back at the Alibi.
25 Mar 18, 12:43 PMThe Doctor
I have no contact info for anyone. All I can do is go to the Alibi and see who shows up.
25 Mar 18, 12:43 PMMega Mega
Other than Taylor who else? Assuming Hypno is still going with going after two people
25 Mar 18, 12:43 PMSunshine (Foxy)
You guys look for Taylor. We contact Fireantula. We all meet up at the Alibi later?
25 Mar 18, 12:43 PMCopperhead
Alright. It sounds like we have a plan of action.
25 Mar 18, 12:43 PMSunshine (Foxy)
If he's not already dead.
25 Mar 18, 12:43 PMSunshine (Foxy)
He would be a good next target.
25 Mar 18, 12:42 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Taylor though....
25 Mar 18, 12:42 PMSunshine (Foxy)
We can find Fire.
25 Mar 18, 12:42 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will starts pacing. This is so messed up.* Does... can anyone here contact Blackout?
25 Mar 18, 12:42 PMTweak Harper
...
25 Mar 18, 12:41 PMCopperhead
We haven't found him yet. Or Fireantula for that matter. Her apartment was empty.
25 Mar 18, 12:41 PMThe Doctor
Yes. Taylor.
25 Mar 18, 12:41 PMMega Mega
.....Taylor? =/c
25 Mar 18, 12:41 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will looks at Doctor, looking more worried than before.* You mean... Taylor?
25 Mar 18, 12:41 PMCopperhead
Taylor.
25 Mar 18, 12:41 PMIggy Prospero
He would....
25 Mar 18, 12:41 PMCopperhead
Well, we have a few. I'm a pretty decent sleuth when I need to be. And Blackout is a good up and comer. And-
25 Mar 18, 12:41 PMThe Doctor
Who has had dealings with both sides, but now gone missing?
25 Mar 18, 12:41 PMThe Doctor
If they're after investigators, would that not make a man who claims to be a reporter an ideal target?
25 Mar 18, 12:40 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Looks at The Doctor.)
25 Mar 18, 12:40 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will looks at Copperhead.* Copperhead, who'd you consider to be an experienced investigator in the Union?
25 Mar 18, 12:40 PMThe Doctor
I had a thought.
25 Mar 18, 12:40 PMThe Doctor
-considers this-
25 Mar 18, 12:40 PMThe Doctor
Oh.
25 Mar 18, 12:40 PMSunshine (Foxy)
We have our pattern, but what is he after. That's how we'll get our checkmate.
25 Mar 18, 12:40 PMCopperhead
I have to go file reports on this incident anyway, I can check out who all we have that matches that criteria.
25 Mar 18, 12:40 PMSunshine (Foxy)
I'd say they want to strike the best of the best. The loudest. The ones we'd recognize.
25 Mar 18, 12:40 PMIggy Prospero
Seems like it
25 Mar 18, 12:39 PMCopperhead
Are we still using the Alibi as a point of contact?
25 Mar 18, 12:39 PMSunshine (Foxy)
I don't know the Union well enough to answer that.
25 Mar 18, 12:39 PMThe Doctor
No one should go off by themselves anyway.
25 Mar 18, 12:39 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Gonna stiiiick reeeeeal close to tweak and Iggy. Sweats.)
25 Mar 18, 12:39 PMTweak Harper
S-sunshine... don't go off alone again.
25 Mar 18, 12:39 PMCopperhead
I'm not letting this Hypno guy take anybody else.
25 Mar 18, 12:39 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
Who would be considered an investigator from the Union? We should all keep together if this is true.
25 Mar 18, 12:38 PMCopperhead
Don't worry. We'll keep you in sight.
25 Mar 18, 12:38 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Damn right! But don't let B kill me, though. @Copperhead
25 Mar 18, 12:38 PMSunshine (Foxy)
:ahhhllama:
25 Mar 18, 12:38 PMIggy Prospero
She is
25 Mar 18, 12:38 PMThe Doctor
Investigators like you?
25 Mar 18, 12:38 PMSunshine (Foxy)
not*))
25 Mar 18, 12:38 PMCopperhead
You're a smart kid, huh? @Sunshine
25 Mar 18, 12:38 PMSunshine (Foxy)
He's struck our healers. Our protectors. Our Leaders. But now our investigators.
25 Mar 18, 12:37 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Telepathy. Psychic abilities. Or intelligence. Sleuths.
25 Mar 18, 12:37 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will looks at Sunshine.* Who would be considered the minds?
25 Mar 18, 12:37 PMCopperhead
That's unfortunate. This person is really knocking us for a loop, huh?
25 Mar 18, 12:36 PMSunshine (Foxy)
What about the minds?
25 Mar 18, 12:36 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Pauses for a long moment.)
25 Mar 18, 12:36 PMCopperhead
*waves back to Mega. then shoots a worried look at Dash*
25 Mar 18, 12:36 PMSunshine (Foxy)
So, this person, this B. They're saying the Gods, the destructors, the healers.... none of them can save us.
25 Mar 18, 12:36 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will looks at Copperhead, looking worried.* Flashpoint set the building on fire. We think he was controlled by Hypno
25 Mar 18, 12:36 PMTweak Harper
*Bellandus is carved on the inside*
25 Mar 18, 12:36 PMIggy Prospero
Perhaps we should find him......
25 Mar 18, 12:36 PMMega Mega
*Notices Copperhead!...W-waves to*
25 Mar 18, 12:35 PMThe Doctor
Bellandus, one who is to be fought.
25 Mar 18, 12:35 PMSunshine (Foxy)
RIGHT. (Pulls out the watch Tweak gave her.) :flowerllama:
25 Mar 18, 12:35 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Angel might know. @Iggy
25 Mar 18, 12:35 PMTweak Harper
And the watch I gave you
25 Mar 18, 12:35 PMCopperhead
Oh it's you all. What's... oh was this... *looks over at the office building*
25 Mar 18, 12:35 PMSunshine (Foxy)
I looked up the name later. Latin for one meant to be fought.
25 Mar 18, 12:35 PMTweak Harper
They controlled s-someone to open the s-safe?
25 Mar 18, 12:35 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Someone — one of ours — wrote Bellandus: one who fought
25 Mar 18, 12:34 PMCopperhead
*jogs over to the group after helping load up a group of civilians in an ambulance*
25 Mar 18, 12:34 PMIggy Prospero
Someone would know right?
25 Mar 18, 12:34 PMIggy Prospero
I forgot to ask what was in that safe
25 Mar 18, 12:34 PMThe Doctor
In every other case, a single person was targetted. Do we know that the warehouse was connected?
25 Mar 18, 12:34 PMIggy Prospero
......
25 Mar 18, 12:34 PMSunshine (Foxy)
And the safe was OPEN. But not broken into.
25 Mar 18, 12:34 PMSunshine (Foxy)
They took something from the back rooms.
25 Mar 18, 12:33 PMTweak Harper
Was a massacre.
25 Mar 18, 12:33 PMSunshine (Foxy)
No one super important died there...
25 Mar 18, 12:33 PMSunshine (Foxy)
But the warehouse....
25 Mar 18, 12:33 PMThe Doctor
What was learned at the warehouse?
25 Mar 18, 12:33 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Luciana and Alexandria.
25 Mar 18, 12:33 PMTweak Harper
The warehouse.
25 Mar 18, 12:33 PMThe Doctor
They happen in pairs, to similar people. Higher ranked members. Healers. Firemakers.
25 Mar 18, 12:33 PMThe Doctor
The two that started it. Stitch and PLacebo. Inferno and Flashpoint.
25 Mar 18, 12:32 PMSunshine (Foxy)
. . . The warehouse, right?
25 Mar 18, 12:32 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
What... if there's been a murder we haven't discovered yet?
25 Mar 18, 12:32 PMThe Doctor
and then one deviated.
25 Mar 18, 12:32 PMThe Doctor
It went back and forth
25 Mar 18, 12:32 PMThe Doctor
The question is which broke the pattern.
25 Mar 18, 12:32 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Placebo. Right. Gah.
25 Mar 18, 12:32 PMSunshine (Foxy)
But something in Union or neutral territory will happen.
25 Mar 18, 12:31 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Their's a higher chance of another one of us being targeted.
25 Mar 18, 12:31 PMThe Doctor
You forgot placebo.
25 Mar 18, 12:31 PMSunshine (Foxy)
I think.
25 Mar 18, 12:31 PMTweak Harper
But neutral territory.
25 Mar 18, 12:31 PMSunshine (Foxy)
P. U. P. P. P. U.
25 Mar 18, 12:30 PMThe Doctor
as was the warehouse.
25 Mar 18, 12:30 PMThe Doctor
Stitch was Prospero
25 Mar 18, 12:30 PMSunshine (Foxy)
=T
25 Mar 18, 12:30 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Flashpoint.
25 Mar 18, 12:30 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Luciana. Alexandrian. Stitch. Warehouse. Inferno....
25 Mar 18, 12:29 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will clears his throat.* That may have been me. *He mumbles.*
25 Mar 18, 12:29 PMTweak Harper
We didn't s-see them leave. Or.. We don't know.
25 Mar 18, 12:29 PMIggy Prospero
What about the other incidents in the paper?
25 Mar 18, 12:29 PMSunshine (Foxy)
But I'm betting on Union. I can't remember what Angel said about those old attacks...
25 Mar 18, 12:29 PMThe Doctor
-points at Sunshine's list- Who is each?
25 Mar 18, 12:28 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Either... Union or Prospero again.
25 Mar 18, 12:28 PMThe Doctor
You do not need to see them or know them for them to control you
25 Mar 18, 12:28 PMThe Doctor
Most likely he will say he heard a voice commanding him to act.
25 Mar 18, 12:28 PMTweak Harper
Don't know if it f-fits though...
25 Mar 18, 12:27 PMTweak Harper
the murder was neutral.
25 Mar 18, 12:27 PMSunshine (Foxy)
I'm looking for a pattern of attack.
25 Mar 18, 12:27 PMMega Mega
Hmm? @Sunshine
25 Mar 18, 12:27 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
Maybe he could tell us something about Hypno...
25 Mar 18, 12:26 PMSunshine (Foxy)
P, U, N, N, P, P, U....
25 Mar 18, 12:26 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will releases a breath of relief, standing up now.* That's a relief.
25 Mar 18, 12:26 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Before that it was.... Prospero, Union.
25 Mar 18, 12:26 PMSunshine (Foxy)
If I'm... remembering correctly the attacks thus far have been neutral territory, neutral territory, Prospero, Prospero, and now Union.
25 Mar 18, 12:26 PMTweak Harper
People are already clearing out.
25 Mar 18, 12:25 PMThe Doctor
His damage was minor. He's simply exhausted.
25 Mar 18, 12:25 PMThe Doctor
-finishes healing and drops his hand- Flashpoint will be fine.
25 Mar 18, 12:25 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Hm.... (Draws N, N, P, P, U.)
25 Mar 18, 12:25 PMTweak Harper
They want to s-scare the people we're protecting.
25 Mar 18, 12:25 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will looks down on the ground. He knows what could've happened if he did try to help, but he can't help but feeling guilt.* Is Flashpoint gonna be ok?
25 Mar 18, 12:24 PMSunshine (Foxy)
He seemed wholly unconcerned.
25 Mar 18, 12:24 PMScene Master
"Well have fun with that. I've got work to do." Captain Solar leaves to continue helping."
25 Mar 18, 12:24 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Sits on the ground cross legged and starts writing what looks like tic-tac-toe in the dirt.)
25 Mar 18, 12:23 PMScene Master
"A hero going into Prospero territory without permission might've gotten themselves shot."
25 Mar 18, 12:23 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Chasing just won't cut it anymore.
25 Mar 18, 12:23 PMSunshine (Foxy)
We need to predict our enemies next move and cut them off.
25 Mar 18, 12:23 PMSunshine (Foxy)
We need to start playing this like chess.
25 Mar 18, 12:23 PMTweak Harper
They... no one can s-save... :/
25 Mar 18, 12:23 PMIggy Prospero
.......
25 Mar 18, 12:23 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Miffed. Huffs.)
25 Mar 18, 12:22 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will feels even more disturbed when Sunshine mentions that. He could've helped but... he chased Taylor instead.*
25 Mar 18, 12:22 PMScene Master
"That you did. You did marvellous work, Dash."
25 Mar 18, 12:22 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Only no heroes were there to save him..... =T
25 Mar 18, 12:21 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will feels disturbed as Solar speaks.* But... I did save him.
25 Mar 18, 12:21 PMSunshine (Foxy)
We got one just like that on Inferno.
25 Mar 18, 12:21 PMSunshine (Foxy)
...
25 Mar 18, 12:21 PMScene Master
"It just says 'they can't save you.' And it's signed 'B'"
25 Mar 18, 12:21 PMTweak Harper
<.< >.> *still jumpy cause, has everyone forgotten hypno could still be here?!*
25 Mar 18, 12:21 PMMega Mega
What is it?
25 Mar 18, 12:21 PMIggy Prospero
........
25 Mar 18, 12:20 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Tries to peek at the note Solar got.)
25 Mar 18, 12:20 PMScene Master
"Where was this found?"
"On Flashpoint, Captain."
25 Mar 18, 12:20 PMScene Master
He frowns and stares at the paper.
25 Mar 18, 12:19 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will releases a sigh as he feels the burns heal.* Thanks. *He smiles.*
25 Mar 18, 12:19 PMScene Master
"Bellandus? No? Sounds Italian..." He unfolds his piece of paper.
25 Mar 18, 12:19 PMScene Master
One of the ambulance workers brings a piece of paper over to Captain Solar.
25 Mar 18, 12:19 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Heard of that name?
25 Mar 18, 12:18 PMThe Doctor
-presses hands on top of Dashes, starting to heal. He's lookin tired for sure, but Flashpoint looks a lot better [heal 5]-
25 Mar 18, 12:18 PMSunshine (Foxy)
What about Bellandus? @Solar
25 Mar 18, 12:18 PMScene Master
"You're probably right, yes." @Doc
25 Mar 18, 12:18 PMTweak Harper
*frowns* chasing everyone away...
25 Mar 18, 12:18 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will holds out his hands, flinching slightly due to some the burns he took.*
25 Mar 18, 12:17 PMThe Doctor
-pulls back from Flashpoint, turns to Dash- It's a nickname. It would have been reported without an informal shorthand. Hold out your hands.
25 Mar 18, 12:17 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Shows tweak the note like she did for Iggy.)
25 Mar 18, 12:17 PMScene Master
"If he has, then it hasn't been filed. Hm..."
25 Mar 18, 12:17 PMTweak Harper
nope @sunshine
25 Mar 18, 12:17 PMSunshine (Foxy)
It was a message...
25 Mar 18, 12:17 PMIggy Prospero
Only one dead though
25 Mar 18, 12:16 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Fire guy controlled to do it.

*nods*
25 Mar 18, 12:16 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Building burned down.
25 Mar 18, 12:16 PMMega Mega
Almost identical? @Iggy
25 Mar 18, 12:16 PMThe Doctor
-healing healing healing, but almost done-
25 Mar 18, 12:16 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will frowns.* But... wouldn't Copperhead have reported it at some point?
25 Mar 18, 12:16 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Tweak! I thought you'd died.
25 Mar 18, 12:16 PMScene Master
"Yeah, I know about the fire last night."
25 Mar 18, 12:15 PMIggy Prospero
We had an almost identical incident
25 Mar 18, 12:15 PMSunshine (Foxy)
You know, to kill themselves.
25 Mar 18, 12:15 PMScene Master
"There haven't been any reports of someone called Hypno in the Union."
25 Mar 18, 12:15 PMTweak Harper
*now that the crowd's calmed down joins iggy and sunshine*
25 Mar 18, 12:15 PMSunshine (Foxy)
The dude controlling everyone!
25 Mar 18, 12:15 PMIggy Prospero
Apparently word travels slowly within the union
25 Mar 18, 12:15 PMSunshine (Foxy)
You don't even know the basics of how far this goes. Pffft. And you wanna throw shade at us?
25 Mar 18, 12:14 PMMega Mega
Can we stop the hostility
25 Mar 18, 12:14 PMScene Master
"Hypno? What are you talking about?"
25 Mar 18, 12:14 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will looks up at Captain Solar.* We're pretty sure Flashpoint was controlled.
25 Mar 18, 12:14 PMIggy Prospero
It doesn't matter who I am right now
25 Mar 18, 12:14 PMSunshine (Foxy)
We're looking for Hypno, like everyone else. And it's not like we haven't already found a buttload of clues, thank you very much.
25 Mar 18, 12:14 PMScene Master
"Oh? And who might that be, Kid Vicious?"
25 Mar 18, 12:13 PMIggy Prospero
We have a mutual enemy
25 Mar 18, 12:13 PMMega Mega
I just got here =|
25 Mar 18, 12:13 PMScene Master
"Oh yeah? How little missy?"
25 Mar 18, 12:13 PMIggy Prospero
a bit of pragmatism wouldn't kill you
25 Mar 18, 12:13 PMScene Master
[[quotation**]]
25 Mar 18, 12:13 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Hey! We're helping. >=T
25 Mar 18, 12:12 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I didn't come here with them. they came around here themselves... *He looks over at Flashpoint, worry on his face.* I was just doing what I thought was right.
25 Mar 18, 12:12 PMTweak Harper
*isn't with the rest of the group, cause too crowded :"|
25 Mar 18, 12:12 PMScene Master
[[Whatever. Pretend there were quotstiqu marks]]
25 Mar 18, 12:12 PMThe Doctor
-doesn't respond, busy healbotting-
25 Mar 18, 12:12 PMScene Master
You're fine. You're one of ours. Though... I question why you're running elbows with the Prospero.
25 Mar 18, 12:11 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I heard the sirens. *He replies bluntly.*
25 Mar 18, 12:11 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Moooves behind Iggy.) :' D
25 Mar 18, 12:11 PMIggy Prospero
.........That's not a coincidence
25 Mar 18, 12:11 PMSunshine (Foxy)
=|
25 Mar 18, 12:11 PMSunshine (Foxy)
The note says 'B'
25 Mar 18, 12:11 PMScene Master
He jogs over to you and puts his hands on his hips, akimbo style. "What are you folks doing here? This isn't neutral territory."
25 Mar 18, 12:11 PMIggy Prospero
Hypno did this then
25 Mar 18, 12:11 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Dash sits back down on the ground. It does help that one downfall of being a speedster is that he does breath a lot when running. This was no exception.*
25 Mar 18, 12:10 PMScene Master
Captain Solar was directing the citizens to keep them from basically stampeding. But now he's staring at your group.
25 Mar 18, 12:10 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Inferno. He wasn't burned, but he must have been the cause of the fire... just like this place.
25 Mar 18, 12:10 PMThe Doctor
You have inhaled smoke. I will handle you after. -bends down to heal flashpoint-
25 Mar 18, 12:10 PMIggy Prospero
Just great
25 Mar 18, 12:10 PMIggy Prospero
Great
25 Mar 18, 12:09 PMSunshine (Foxy)
We lost another one...
25 Mar 18, 12:09 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*He looks at the Doctor, a small smile appearing on his face.* Well, I didn't die?
25 Mar 18, 12:09 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Looks relieved upon seeing Iggy. Runs to meet him halfway as he approached the group. She immediately shows him the paper she found on Inferno's body.)
25 Mar 18, 12:09 PMTweak Harper
<.< >.> *staying put*
25 Mar 18, 12:08 PMIggy Prospero
I guess we should head for the clowns.... *starts making his way over toward the group*
25 Mar 18, 12:08 PMTweak Harper
*hanging back from the crowd*
25 Mar 18, 12:08 PMSunshine (Foxy)
. . . (Peers around for Tweak and Iggy.) >=T
25 Mar 18, 12:08 PMThe Doctor
I am a healer, please move aside and set him down.
25 Mar 18, 12:08 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Good thing we've got one. :flowerllama:
25 Mar 18, 12:08 PMMega Mega
He needs a medic
25 Mar 18, 12:07 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Jumps down from her spot back into the crowd and runs to Dash and The Doctor.) Well..... fuck.
25 Mar 18, 12:07 PMIggy Prospero
........
25 Mar 18, 12:07 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
We need to get Flashpoint further away... he's probably hurt more than me. *He manages to say between coughing.*
25 Mar 18, 12:07 PMThe Doctor
-hops down from his vantage point, and heads towards Dash, PLAN FAILED, back to healbotting-
25 Mar 18, 12:07 PMIggy Prospero
............
25 Mar 18, 12:07 PMMega Mega
*UUUH helps up Dash*
25 Mar 18, 12:06 PMMega Mega
The statue?!
25 Mar 18, 12:06 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(SORRY MATES, CAN'T HEAR YA'LL OVER THE CROWD YELLING.)
25 Mar 18, 12:06 PMScene Master
It seems like everyone is reacting appropriately for their given roles.
25 Mar 18, 12:06 PMIggy Prospero
Sunshine!
25 Mar 18, 12:06 PMIggy Prospero
*rushes to the front with tweak*
25 Mar 18, 12:05 PMTweak Harper
<.< >.> *too short to see much*
25 Mar 18, 12:05 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
Y-yeah. Right. *Upon seeing the statue collapse, he looks a bit shocked. He starts standing up but is forced to sit back down from a coughing fit.*
25 Mar 18, 12:05 PMTweak Harper
*runs when they hear the statue* !
25 Mar 18, 12:05 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Is hoping The Doctor was able to pay attention to any possible slowest reactors, because she sure couldn't.)
25 Mar 18, 12:04 PMThe Doctor
-is watching the civilians in the crowd-
25 Mar 18, 12:04 PMMega Mega
Everyone is alerted now...*Just sorta gestures to the gathering heroes*
25 Mar 18, 12:04 PMScene Master
The statue topples and... well, I mean. People scream and run. Heroes jump into action. A lot of the veterans you expect.
25 Mar 18, 12:04 PMTweak Harper
Nothing. S-shit. <.< >.> might as well head back front. *does so*
25 Mar 18, 12:03 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*He looks up at Mega Mega, slight shock on his face before he nods.* Y-yeah. Wait, how... do you know?? *He sounds confused.*
25 Mar 18, 12:03 PMMega Mega
*LOOKS AROUND...heads over to Dash* You got him?!
25 Mar 18, 12:02 PMScene Master
Other than more gawkers and a few heroes coming onto the scene to help, nothing really out of the ordinary, Tweak
25 Mar 18, 12:02 PMTweak Harper
*anything out back? *
25 Mar 18, 12:01 PMSunshine (Foxy)
(Turns to a nearby statue, not paying much heed to Mega Mega for now, likely because she hasn't noticed him yet. Lift: 3, Sunshine's nano-bots attack the statues base and attempt to topple it over onto a set of cars nearby.)
25 Mar 18, 12:01 PMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will drags Flashpoint further from the fire and sits down on the ground. He didn't escape the flames completely, his body slowly feeling pain as the adrenaline fades. He's still coughing from the smoke he inhaled.*
25 Mar 18, 12:00 PMScene Master
. . . I HAD NO IDEA
25 Mar 18, 12:00 PMThe Doctor
.... -nods, and goes to find high ground-
25 Mar 18, 12:00 PMMega Mega
*APPEARS!...superhero landing yes* :buffcat:
25 Mar 18, 12:00 PMSunshine (Foxy)
Let the ambulances take care of it.
25 Mar 18, 12:00 PMSunshine (Foxy)
My family is dying left or right.
25 Mar 18, 12:00 PMSunshine (Foxy)
One life or many, man.
25 Mar 18, 11:59 AMThe Doctor
-spots Dash shooting out of hte building, and glances to Sunshine- I should be healing.
25 Mar 18, 11:59 AMScene Master
As soon as Flashpoint is clear of the building, the fire trucks are able to actually make some headway on the fire. Flashpoint, such as it is, is unconscious.
25 Mar 18, 11:59 AMSunshine (Foxy)
You just get somewhere high and watch everyone, kaaay?~
25 Mar 18, 11:59 AMSunshine (Foxy)
(Looks behind the crowd for anything she might be able to get her nano-bots to topple over. Something that would be LOUD.)
25 Mar 18, 11:58 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will starts coughing as soon as he's out of the building, holding Flashpoint. He almost falls over but remains standing.*
25 Mar 18, 11:58 AMScene Master
And he saves!
25 Mar 18, 11:58 AMSunshine (Foxy)
Something collapsing. Something big and heavy1
25 Mar 18, 11:58 AMSunshine (Foxy)
(Looks around.)
25 Mar 18, 11:58 AMIggy Prospero

25 Mar 18, 11:57 AMThe Doctor
-stares at Sunshine for several moments- That might work, yes. But what distraction would be larger than the building burning down?
25 Mar 18, 11:57 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will would attempt to grab a Flashpoint and start running out, hoping he could get out faster than the fire user could hurt him.*
25 Mar 18, 11:57 AMSunshine (Foxy)
If we make a big enough distraction and one of us can look at the group as a whole... maybe we can see the person who looks last.
25 Mar 18, 11:57 AMTweak Harper
*still looking around out back *
25 Mar 18, 11:57 AMSunshine (Foxy)
They can get into their role so much that they don't always react to unexpected stimuli as normal people.
25 Mar 18, 11:56 AMScene Master
Move wins. Dash grabs Flashpoint, knocking him out from the sheer force and is able to get him out of hlthe building with little trouble.
25 Mar 18, 11:56 AMSunshine (Foxy)
. . .I, uh, heard this thing about good actors.
25 Mar 18, 11:56 AMThe Doctor
It would seem likely, but I haven't seen anyone.
25 Mar 18, 11:56 AMScene Master
Interestingly, on a tie between Blast and Move
25 Mar 18, 11:56 AMSunshine (Foxy)
You think he's still around?
25 Mar 18, 11:55 AMThe Doctor
Hypnos has controled a union hero. He caused the fire.
25 Mar 18, 11:54 AMSunshine (Foxy)
Another attack? What's going on? Where is everyone else?
25 Mar 18, 11:54 AMThe Doctor
You're the first I've seen other then Dash.
25 Mar 18, 11:53 AMSunshine (Foxy)
There some one is! @Doc
25 Mar 18, 11:53 AMSunshine (Foxy)
>=( (WHY DOES SHE HAVE TO BE SO SHORT SHE CAN'T SEE A THING.)
25 Mar 18, 11:53 AMThe Doctor

((Poor sunshine, they're out back))
25 Mar 18, 11:52 AMMega Mega
>.> *sneaaaaks off*
25 Mar 18, 11:52 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will holds the handkerchief tighter. He knows his resistance won't hold up long, so he'll have to be quick. He runs at Flashpoint, aiming to grab him.*
25 Mar 18, 11:51 AMSunshine (Foxy)
Tweak...? Iggy...?
25 Mar 18, 11:51 AMSunshine (Foxy)
(Follows the sound of sirens and the general flow of people until she's made it to the flaming building. Looks around. Shit, a huge fucking crowd...)
25 Mar 18, 11:51 AMScene Master
It doesn't take long to find Flashpoint. He's standing in the middle of the main office, bursting with fire every couple of seconds. [Blast 5: Fire]
25 Mar 18, 11:50 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*On top of his speed, he has Resist: 2. He moves quickly to avoid the flames and holds the handkerchief to his face tightly. He searches for Flashpoint.*
25 Mar 18, 11:49 AMTweak Harper
<.< >.> *very jumpy going around back. Hand on gun*
25 Mar 18, 11:49 AMScene Master
I'm so proud. Dash enters the building. The heat is intense, but moving quickly you keep the worst of the flames off of you. [Blast 2: Fire]
25 Mar 18, 11:49 AMThe Doctor
-begins to survey the crowd for Hypno, but good luck finding a normal looking person in a crowd of normal looking people-
25 Mar 18, 11:49 AMIggy Prospero
*heads around back with Tweak*
25 Mar 18, 11:48 AMMega Mega
....H-he ran in! :shockneko:
25 Mar 18, 11:48 AMIggy Prospero
Yeah...
25 Mar 18, 11:48 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*He takes a deep breath, quickly taking a handkerchief from his pocket and holding it to his face to reduce the amount of smoke he’ll breath in.* It’s something I’ll risk. *With that, he runs into the building.*
25 Mar 18, 11:47 AMThe Doctor
It would be a fools death.
25 Mar 18, 11:46 AMTweak Harper
Iggy - check around b- back with me?
25 Mar 18, 11:46 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
Then at least I’d die trying to help someone.
25 Mar 18, 11:46 AMThe Doctor
There's a crowd, and the odds of anyone spotting a normal looking man are slim. You will still die, since the fire is coming from him.
25 Mar 18, 11:46 AMTweak Harper
*ignores dash. It's his funeral*
25 Mar 18, 11:45 AMSunshine (Foxy)
(Blinks slowly. Gingerly refolds the note and tucks it away on herself. Pats Inferno once more before deciding to meet up with the rest of the group because this place is starting to give her the willies.)
25 Mar 18, 11:45 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I’m pretty resistant, you know. Plus I’m fast. I’ll get in there and get him out fast. *He gets ready to start sprinting. He’s dead set on doing this.* You guys find Hypno!
25 Mar 18, 11:44 AMScene Master
[Brothel] The note simply reads "They can't protect you. -B"
25 Mar 18, 11:44 AMThe Doctor
You will also die if you run into an inferno.
25 Mar 18, 11:44 AMSunshine (Foxy)
D: (Siiiighs at another dead family members. When she gets to the note she carefully takes it out to read it.) Christ...
25 Mar 18, 11:44 AMTweak Harper
He's killing himself. We should look for hypno. In groups.
25 Mar 18, 11:43 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
He’ll die! I can’t leave that on my conscience!
25 Mar 18, 11:43 AMMega Mega
My people? Who said that? <.<
25 Mar 18, 11:43 AMThe Doctor
You'll injure yourself. You aren't fireproof.
25 Mar 18, 11:42 AMMega Mega
......
25 Mar 18, 11:42 AMIggy Prospero
They're your people @Mega
25 Mar 18, 11:42 AMScene Master
[Brothel] The body belongs to Inferno, a Prospero Family member with fire powers. Duh. He has a note in his pocket.
25 Mar 18, 11:42 AMTweak Harper
<.< >.>
25 Mar 18, 11:42 AMTweak Harper
Do what? 'M ... he's here.
25 Mar 18, 11:42 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
...huh? But... *He looks at Doctor.* I’m going in.
25 Mar 18, 11:42 AMThe Doctor
So Hypno, then. Using his powers against him.
25 Mar 18, 11:42 AMScene Master
Point of order, Flashpoint is a fire based Union hero.
25 Mar 18, 11:41 AMScene Master
[Union Building] One of the workers looks at Dash and looks at the others before shrugging. "I think so? I mean, except for Flashpoint. He's still in there... keeping the fire going."
25 Mar 18, 11:40 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Upon arriving to the building, Will freezes. More out of instinct, he jogs over to the workers.* Is everyone out?
25 Mar 18, 11:40 AMSunshine (Foxy)
:shockneko: (Quickly gets near the body to thoroughly investigate it.)
25 Mar 18, 11:39 AMScene Master
Back at the brothel, Sunshine does find a single dead body. Dead but... not burned.
25 Mar 18, 11:39 AMMega Mega
S-should we do something?
25 Mar 18, 11:38 AMIggy Prospero
What a fucking mess...
25 Mar 18, 11:37 AMTweak Harper
*hangs back and watches... not like he can do anything useful at the moment*
25 Mar 18, 11:37 AMIggy Prospero
............
25 Mar 18, 11:36 AMScene Master
The office workers from the building are all gathered together. You have no way of knowing if they are all out or not.
25 Mar 18, 11:36 AMSunshine (Foxy)
(Starts lifting pieces of the broken walls and clearing away bits of ash in search of, perhaps another reference to the name they continue hearing.) No bodies... how weeeeird.
25 Mar 18, 11:35 AMScene Master
It's not Union HQ, but a subsidiary building. And it's in flames. A fire truck is there, but the water doesn't seem to be having much of an effect.
25 Mar 18, 11:34 AMScene Master
The Prospero car will arrive before Dash and Doc
25 Mar 18, 11:33 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will follows after Doctor, going slow so he doesn’t overtake.*
25 Mar 18, 11:32 AMThe Doctor
-will follow the siren sounds with dash-
25 Mar 18, 11:31 AMSunshine (Foxy)
(She'll be usin' that [Lift: 3] to help her search through everything anyway.)
25 Mar 18, 11:30 AMSunshine (Foxy)
I got it!
25 Mar 18, 11:28 AMTweak Harper
S-sunshine... be careful cockroach. Don't make the building collapse.
25 Mar 18, 11:27 AMSunshine (Foxy)
I'll catch up with you guys later. :flowerllama:
25 Mar 18, 11:27 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will nods also standing up. He pulls a glove out of one of his pockets and puts it on his previously injured hand.*
25 Mar 18, 11:27 AMSunshine (Foxy)
Hm..... I think I'll stick it out here. I'm not much help in an emergency but I'm great at snooping!
25 Mar 18, 11:25 AMThe Doctor
-gets up from the table then- Then lets go. I would say we should lock up, but there's no point with the window broken.
25 Mar 18, 11:25 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
Yeah. I do want to check it out.
25 Mar 18, 11:24 AMMega Mega
*Craawls back into the car*
25 Mar 18, 11:24 AMTweak Harper
*hops in* *mutters something about rats deserting a sinking ship*
25 Mar 18, 11:24 AMThe Doctor
If you would like.
25 Mar 18, 11:23 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will thinks for a moment.* Should we... check it out?
25 Mar 18, 11:23 AMThe Doctor
-pauses at the sound- Or a police car.
25 Mar 18, 11:23 AMIggy Prospero
*hops in the car* Let's go
25 Mar 18, 11:23 AMThe Doctor
I chose to become a hero in order to establish myself. Once my reputation is clear, I'll be able to become a true doctor without any credentials.
25 Mar 18, 11:22 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will hears the sirens, listening carefully.* Is that a fire truck?
25 Mar 18, 11:22 AMTweak Harper
*looks to iggy* follow the s-sirens?
25 Mar 18, 11:22 AMScene Master
It's a very distinct smell, you know.
25 Mar 18, 11:22 AMScene Master
Oddly enough, there are no burned flesh smells
25 Mar 18, 11:21 AMSunshine (Foxy)
I don't think we're going to find anything here.... other than burned bodies.
25 Mar 18, 11:21 AMSunshine (Foxy)
Let's follow.
25 Mar 18, 11:21 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will sighs, looking down still. He’s having trouble
25 Mar 18, 11:21 AMSunshine (Foxy)
. . . (looks toward the sound.)
25 Mar 18, 11:21 AMScene Master
The sirens of a fire truck wail in the distance, audible to pretty much everybody.
25 Mar 18, 11:20 AMScene Master
Funny you should ask that, Tweak
25 Mar 18, 11:20 AMMega Mega
Did someone set the place on fire ? <.<
25 Mar 18, 11:19 AMTweak Harper
Wonder if the heroes are getting hit s-so hard? :/
25 Mar 18, 11:19 AMThe Doctor
There are ways to be useful without being a hero.
25 Mar 18, 11:19 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
I just want to help people. I have the means to do so, so I just want to be useful.
25 Mar 18, 11:19 AMIggy Prospero
Doesn't look like it
25 Mar 18, 11:18 AMSunshine (Foxy)
No survivors this time either I take it...
25 Mar 18, 11:18 AMThe Doctor
Not everyone is cut out for either job.
25 Mar 18, 11:18 AMSunshine (Foxy)
(Also pokes around for any signs of bodies.)
25 Mar 18, 11:18 AMThe Doctor
The police are the police. Masks are masks. You can't be both.
25 Mar 18, 11:18 AMMega Mega

25 Mar 18, 11:18 AMTweak Harper
Wonder how many caught in that... *pokes around the building. Twitchy hand on gun*
25 Mar 18, 11:18 AMSunshine (Foxy)
=T
25 Mar 18, 11:18 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will reluctantly nods.* I... guess.
25 Mar 18, 11:16 AMThe Doctor
As long as you reported, you did what you could. Masks fight masks. When Masks start tampering in normal problems, they become the police.
25 Mar 18, 11:16 AMIggy Prospero
This place....
25 Mar 18, 11:16 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
Maybe I’m not cut out for being a hero after all...
25 Mar 18, 11:15 AMScene Master
The building is, or was, a Prospero protected brothel. It's burned out, even the bricks are black.
25 Mar 18, 11:15 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
We reported the thugs but... I can’t remember about the fire. I was in such a rush, I guess.
25 Mar 18, 11:15 AMTweak Harper
Careful.. <.< >.>
25 Mar 18, 11:15 AMThe Doctor
Did you report them, when you saw them?
25 Mar 18, 11:14 AMUnstoppable Dash! (Will)
*Will nods.* I... really don’t feel good about any of this... I was there when those thugs were there, and when the fire happened. *He holds his head in his hands with a sigh.*
25 Mar 18, 11:14 AMIggy Prospero
*follows after Tweak and Sunshine, wary as fuck*
25 Mar 18, 11:13 AMTweak Harper
*jumps out too*
25 Mar 18, 11:13 AMThe Doctor
Considering the time it happened, I assume it was too late to simply speak with anyone?
25 Mar 18, 11:13 AMThe Doctor
-considers this- It would seem yo
