AuRon the champion

Ic: "Let's go then," Jiyu said with a frown, "It's far too cramped here for my liking."

Ic: "Deal," Jiyu said, letting her take the lead.

Ic: "I'm in pain, which isn't exactly new," He said, trying to adjust to the regular dasaka-sized tunnel. Like usual, everything was so... Small. "What bothers me is that this space is a bit... Small for me. If we are attacked, I'll have no room to maneuver. I might be forced to do something... Drastic."

Ic: (Kristen Hailey, NYC): I don't think about killing myself on a daily basis. Really. Believe me. I might possibly be insane, and idealistic, and broken, but I'm not suicidal. I like to think that I'm strong enough to abstain from that kind of thinking. Of course, there's the feelings. The ones that I don't ever admit to anyone. The self-doubt, the fear, the hopelessness. The feelings that I shove away in the back of my mind and creep back up on me when I'm at my weakest. Like when I've had a ridiculously unbalanced past couple of days full of donut shootouts and a giant nazi with a skull for a head trying to destroy the known world. Times like these, you know? I had a gun. I'd found it. It would've been so easy. I mean, I barely know the concept of a life without some giant- problem. There was Joey, who did things to me that I barely had the understanding of, or Lynae, who was... Well, a homicidal vampire who was more or less as bad, and I still[i/] feel some sort of misplaced attraction for. I finally made the decision that the John from my universe is a different one than the John that cut off my arm, but that doesn't mean both of them are complete es. I realized that Dallas might hate me for being a stupid , and I can't even begin to describe my feelings towards Julia. There also was the fact that no matter what, I'd have to resign myself to a life without powers... A kind of life that I can't even begin to imagine because I don't have any real skills beyond murdering people in cold blood. And if anyone knew a thing about me, they'd know that the last thing I want to do is murder someone. Other than Nazis, because they're Nazis. In the end, I didn't kill myself. Kinda obvious. I mean I'm stronger than that, even with the muted legion of voices edging me on. I flipped the safety on and tossed it out of my sight. Since that's what I do when I'm alone. I contemplate my death and decide to not kill myself, when I probably should. Especially when I should. So I just left it there. I just left it there and headed back to where the ship was, dodging any remaining HYRDA goons and anyone else that might have a reason to hurt me. I just went back. Kinda like how I always do.

Ic: "I sincerely hope you know when this geyser will go off again," Jiyu mumbled.

Ic: "You're just going down and then coming back up, yes?" Seigyo asked, "besides, my... Brother is weakened, and I doubt he could carry all three of us at once."

Oh gods if we had to get approvals from all five of them ;~;

Ic: Jack did that, and quickly hid somewhere inconspicuous.

Ic: Trinity took that as a sign of "not okay" and immediately ran to the next room. "Tera!!!"

Ic: With everything seemingly over, Kristen wanted to head home now.

Ic: "Try not to kill anyone. They might be important. Just steal their uniform, remove the name of the previous person who wore it, and lock the body in someplace innocuous."

IC: "I can pass as a valet... I've... Worked in a few places like this before, I just need a uniform," Jack said, his brow furrowing. "And how much money do you think these guys have? Have you even heard of Val Verde?"

Ic: Trinity looked utterly bamboozled. "Are you okay? I think you should talk to Tera..." The young girl said, unsure of how to respond to Aella's appearent weirdness, "you don't sound okay."

Ic: "Real?"

Ic: "So what, we're just going to hop over the wall, find the keys, and drive it away?" Jack asked, a little incredulous.

Ic: "I have no complaints," Jiyu said with a sigh, eyeing the geyser. He reflected inwardly (for a brief moment) that his life had become a constant string of near-death situations. It's only that death by beyond-hot water would be the most embarrassing death that he could have conceived.

Ic: Elsewhere, Trinity was very, very confused. "Aella? What's going on?" She asked, tugging on the side Aella's shirt.

Ic: A very bored Aeolus was bored. So he did the logical thing and started to see how hot he could actually make the steam that their elements fused to. In the middle of the street.

Ic: "... I doubt I will fit," Jiyu stated with a frown, peering down into the geyser.

Ic: Jack thought that this was the stupidest idea ever, and didn't know why on earth he agreed to do this.

Ic: Elsewhere, Kristen Hailey paused to watch the battle. She had been combing through the city, trying to find anyone still in the buildings. She could fight, if she really wanted to. She knew how. The knowledge never left her mind. The trick was that she had yet to try fighting with her replacement arm. Her balance would be off. Or was she just saying that? It had been a year... She was pretty adjusted to it now. Who was she trying to fool...? After all, Not helping felt... Wrong. Helping would kill her... Kristen did the stupid thing and began to search for a weapon. Beter to fight and die, rather than living with the knowledge that I ran...

Ic: "... I'll ride with you," Jack said with a sigh, getting on the bike with the strange man.

They're not exactly mentally stable enough for ther jobs.

I guess they ran out of money.

Hey, hey, hey! Come see the living freaks themselves, the highly secret toa of steam, Aeolus and Arden! They're sick of each other, and are tired of doing nothing, so they're wandering about ta-koro! Come one, come all!
