I swung by Pala-Koro to pay my respects at the Hive, on the way out of Ko. I went to go check on you, try and swing us both a job at the Sanctum. Turns out all I found was a halfass monument at the Hive, some chuckle behind my bar, and a trashed village. I wanted to retire there, and I couldn't even bring myself to spend the night." Reo's face was so still and cold that if you swapped his mask, you might not be sure who you were talking to. "So I started seeing someone. And if all it took for me to reverse the entire chain of events was to shrink two feet and grow back a little youthful optimism, then I would." He was quiet for a long second, like he wanted to add something on, but plainly decided against it - the Toa of Ice walked away from the door he'd been inching towards and back towards the bar, where he bought his own beer and drank from it coolly. -Tyler SAY IT ONE MORE TIME TELL ME WHAT IS ON YOUR MIND Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vezok's Friend Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) IC (Leah): With a sudden noise, the entrance to the Magma lounge swung open, momentum carrying the wooden doors around until the hit the adjacent walls. Framed against the ambient orange light of Ta-Koro, casting long shadows into the room, three figures entered. Up front where a Toa of air and water, followed by a massive third. Leah looked at the occupants of the room, then glanced at Korero and Sulov before settling her gaze on Reordin with a mischievous smirk, straight outta Le-Koro. "Please don't shrink. The amount of adorable might become too much to bear." "I hope we're not interrupting a private party?"

The former Mark Bearer gestured with her pint to Lohkar casually, blue eyes flicking from Reordin to the other three Maru, settling briefly on Leah, before taking another look at the entire group. Skrihen took another long drink from her glass, whatever she'd been about to say put on hold. "Take a load off, Maru Leah. Korero. Sulov. Can't say I've met so many legends in one room before."

shadow pridak money gang Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 IC: Reordin breathed heavily through his nose and finished his beer in a swig. Turning would give the game up to the Toa Maru. His smooth Tauhaka only highlighted the bruise around his eye, the old blood inside cracked lips, cuts down his jawline from hard knuckles, the wear on a once-proud, slimming officer's jacket, navy fabric and white with unseemly scarlet touches. His eyes were cold these days, blue and surly. He couldn't telegraph his exploits more clearly if he wrote them in the Mata Nui Weekly and shot Sulov in the face with his Patero. The lieutenant turned. "Hey, twerps." Reordin's eyes found Sulov, who once would have been right beside him for this mission without even needing a word affixed to his look, and nodded once. "Big guy. Am I being conscripted? My home doesn't have much of a military these days, and I was drunk for my commission. But I think I might remember a little of how it goes." -Tyler SAY IT ONE MORE TIME TELL ME WHAT IS ON YOUR MIND Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vezok's Friend Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 IC (Leah): She didn't even have to use her mask to figure out their brother was not in the best of shapes and it went beyond physical. By the time Reordin had finished speaking, the Toa of water had closed the distance between them. Was it the wisest move...perhaps not. But she was worried. She reached out a hand and gently placed it on his cheek, tracing the contour of the bone. "We've come to help." she simply said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow pridak money gang Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 IC: Reordin's mouth opened, closed, and pursed with the touch of a hand. "I should make some introductions," he said finally. "Tall, dark and snarky over there is Skrihen, right hand . The boxer is Plagia, left hand . Alfon over there is Plag's , and that there is Aronis Ril. He's just a son of a . They're the Pala-Koro crew. Sulov might know some. The rest are Tal, who I think kind of has a thing for Plagia, and Onuzek, the mountain in the corner over there. I'm waiting on one more, but he might be a no show after all."

Krayzikk Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) IC:Thunk. In a bar welling with conversation, the noise of glass meeting wood was a sound apart. A push sent it sliding across the bar towards the mildly shell-shocked bartender, who only just caught it before it went tumbling into thin air. The beckoning gesture gave him a pretty good idea of what Skrihen wanted as she swiveled back towards the bar. "'Nother drink. C'mon, Plagia, you're gonna have a whole trip to gawk. Drink with me. if my liver's still going in the morning I ####### out." "Plenty of time, gotta wait for Stannis anyway."

All my life I've been ridiculed, putting on this stupid act to make people smile. Sure I succeed, but at my own expense. You have any idea what it feels like to be compared to Ril (you're a godsend buddy, don't change), like I'm just half a step up from him? It's demeaning. Makes me wanna cry. ... Naaaaaaaaah man, I'm just ####ing with you. Seriously. I got nothing to be sad about, my life's awesome. Y'know why?

In fact, I've already vowed to have some ### on the beach after we storm Ko. Yep. ### on the beach. I might be talking about the drink right now.

Vezok's Friend Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 IC (Leah): It was rare for the Toa Maru of water to become irritated. But Korero's rash move and the incessant questioning had managed to do just that. But she didn't let it show. She had been through enough that being annoyed in a bar was hardly enough to get a rise out of her. "So what other reason do you have for asking?" Her tone made it clear that there would be no answer to the original question unless this one was answered first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"He was my friend. More than that." "Then he needed to leave. Couldn't tell me why. Just told me he'd be back. Said to keep an eye on the bar for him." The Toa's face didn't change, but a touch of emotion, difficult to identify, had crept into her tone. "He never came back. I accepted that a long time ago." "I want to find out why."

"He's not the only one. Back when I was a Matoran I belonged to Le-Koro. None of us really ever returned to our past lives." She said. "As for your original question...
