sunflower Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 IC: Leli The Le-matoran whipped around, her staff resting comfortably in the crook of her arm, weight balanced between both feet. Behind her, her usal chattered in annoyance. ” Gyn, Dalrin check it out,” she ordered, her voice even as she spoke. Leli paused for a moment, before adding, ”But stay back and be careful. If it's not friendly put as many bolts in it as you can. No one else gets jumped again.” She knew that it wasn't entire necessary for her to tell them that, but it never hurt. Besides, it might help those who weren't in the Ussarly to not be so jumpy. Leli herself turned back over to the wall, keeping an eye on the oozing substance. IC: Dehkaz The toa of Magnetism accepted the parcel from the ussal with a nod of understanding. The package itself was long and somewhat flattened, with quite a bit of heft to to it. He set it on the counter before, with precise hands, Dehkaz unwrapped the object. It was a dull metalic grey, with a somewhat flattened, angular design. It was obviously a launcher of somesort, one made with a rugged, utilitarian design in mind. Slightly longer than the standard diskette rifle, this one noticeably only had one barrel, which took the form of a deep groove running the length of the flattened rifle from the launching mechanism. Two alloy bars ran the length of the open ”barrel”, while the pistol grip was cut out from the solidly built stock. Dehkaz picked up the rifle and shouldered it, the grips fitting perfectly even though the was wearing gauntlets. ”Very, very fine piece of craftsmanship, very impressive.” - BZPRPG - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Analyzed developments; calculated her next move. And all at once, all she could think was that the Shaddix boy had just as big an ego as she did, and quite possibly even less self-control, and above all that was absolutely one of the most lethally dangerous persons she'd ever seen. And that there was cold iron at his core, no matter what his brain was made of. A person she hated instinctively, on sight... but maybe, just maybe, a person she could respect.Adrenaline crackled in her veins. Liquid fire. And suddenly she laughed, softly and honestly."Touché. Not the most mature or defensible response, perhaps... but in this case, adequate."She smiled at him and raised an eyebrow slightly, quiet-like and just a little bit cautious. Ready to be friendly if he wanted it, but just as ready to be unfriendly if he wanted that, too."I meant what I said; I'm not going to apologize. But I daresay, neither would you. Truce?"

Franco Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 IC: "Roger wilco," Gyn sang quietly, fixing a small, focused lantern onto the underside of the crossbow. That would do for illumination without room for a bigger source; he knew his experience in the darkest village had trained his vision for the dim, and Dalrin's vision was at its peak in murky conditions. He'd be able to see his target no matter how far he got from the group. He hefted his weapon and felt the stock nestle into his shoulder, the grip hug his hands. He readied to nudge its body and knew where the tip would point. Sweep left, right, down, up... The flames, animated, licked his throat. It was all so familiar. He felt like nothing had changed from the first time he stepped into the unknown. He always did, and yet he always experienced a rush more fervid than anything he had previously felt. He advanced.

Rhea's eyes moved sharply, hesitated on the weathered Su-Toa with the Kanohi Calix. Definitely mercenary. Tough, capable, level-headed. At first glance, quite likable.

'Bye." responded Rhea flatly, and turned back to her meal. She'd lost a bit of her appetite, and no wonder, but it was superb steak and she wasn't about to let it go to waste. She ate in silence, obviously deep in thought. The Axe returned his attention to his fish skewer, but he was keeping a cautious eye on Dorian and his traveling companions. He knew the kid by reputation, and he'd even seen him once or twice in Xa-Koro, back in the day. He wasn't exactly on guard; he rather doubted Shaddix was quite as unhinged as rumor had it. Or as deadly. But he definitely wasn't someone to turn your back on, not under any circumstances at all. He, too, ate in silence. OOC: Last IC post for a while, guys. Signing off for the holidays!

"You off to leave on another adventure?" It was surprisingly common these days for the Toa of Stone to leave the village for all sorts of random reasons, whether it be a quest, bailing out the Commander, an inter-island conflict, bailing out the Commander, rescuing important figures, or bailing out the Commander. Jim didn't begrudge her for that. With all the paperwork, lack of actual criminals these days (surprise nobody took advantage of the Sentinels' lower numbers though) and the constant sandstorms, it was pretty terrible sitting around in the village. Though her reasons were probably different from his. She didn't look like she was off on another simple adventure. She looked incredibly desperate and angry. When she turned to reply to him, Jim noticed something more. Her eyes were burning with ... something. It was unsettling. Jim wisely decided not to pester her too much. Greetings made, the Ta-Matoran Sentinel moved off to Lusgi's side, where the other guard was busy glaring at a bio-rat that was attempting to dig through the walls. Fun stuff, probably. "I think Naona's on the warpath," he whispered. Lusgi looked away from the rat, blinking in surprise upon first noticing the Lieutenant.
