Intersection: Thor/Tyr
This intersection is relatively nice, if not for the lingering darkness to the
west on Thor Street. Luckily, all the streetlamps here are replaced
regularly..any graffiti is cleaned up almost immediately..and a neighbourhood
police patrol keeps an eye out for any shifty and suspicious types wandering
about. To the east, Thor Boulevard is a much more lively and light
place..housing many people in small housing complexes, and a few larger,
upper-middle class homes. To the South, Tyr Road continues in that direction,
with a mixture of hotels and apartment buildings. To the north, it seems to
disperse at an obscure point..though a few eateries catering to myriad tastes
can be seen.

>Tamahome blinks, as he stops and looks back, "Really? Sorry, your flat
chestedness kinda fooled m--" and the fireballs SLAM right into him right
afterwards, and the chocolate bar falls to the ground as he flies along towards
the north quickly, riding on the paticular fireball. x.x
>The air seems to shimmer for a minute, then there is a *CRACK*.. much like a
thunderclap. A magic wave surges about in a growing ripple, then abates,
leaving in its place a rather beaten-looking form, laying on the ground.
>Katt blinks. Okay, that wasn't planned. . o O ( Maybe I should've gotten a
second hamburger )
>Tamahome (OOC) wheees, and cracks his heels on the fireball as he flies up to
the north. *waves* ^_-
>Tamahome leaves north.
>Lina mutters darkly, still obviously POed over being called a guy. Her gaze
wanders to the fallen candy bar and she grins, shrugging a bit, "Ah well, might
as well take my reward." But as soon as she takes a step toward it, she freezes
in light of the thunder crack (And obvious magical surge that brings) So
instead she falls into a defensive stance; eyes flitting about warily to see
what the cause was. So she's rather surprised to find the battered form.
Cautiously she steps over toward him.. Then just outright kneels beside him,
poking him lightly with a finger. "Ehh.. You alive?"
>l guy
Guy
This man doesn't appear to be in the best of health. Heck. Saying he's badly
hurt would be an understatement, in fact. His face, while pleasently-built, is
knotted in a look of pain, sweat beading against his brow, and matting a set of
thick red bangs down to his skin. The rest of his hair looks as though it was
once bound back into a ponytail, although at the moment, much of it has fallen
out, and hangs limply over his face, neck, and shoulders. A white headband
clings tenaciously to his forehead, the knot loose, but not quite untied
completely. He turns his pain-crested eyes towards yours, showing them to be an
odd hue. An autumn brown shade.. almost a red. They easily express every bit of
agony he is going through from his extensive injuries.
His side shows the worst of the wounds. A long gash along his ribs tears
through both clothing and flesh, still bleeding unpleasantly. Both his arms
show signs of wounding and searing as well, as though he had been fending off
blows with them as best he could. He limps, one pant-leg shredded, and showing
a long, scorched slash along his leg as well. And yet, even through all this
devistation, there is a look of triumph across his face.
>Guy is... not really answering, at the moment. It's really hard to tell if he's
concious. He mutters something like "... no. No... don't..." as he tries to
force himself to a standing position. 'Tries' being the operative term, here.
>Tasuki waves to Katt-chan, a bit belatedly, "Yo, Katt-chan." He appears from
behind the flying Tama. n.n
>Katt sweatdrops. "..." . o O ( great, first fireballs, now perverts. '-.-' )
>Katt steps over to Tasuki, stage-whispering, "I think I missed something."
>Tamahome arrives from the north.
>Lina rubs the back of her neck a moment and eehs again. A long sigh is let out
and she shrugs, muttering aside to herself in a whiney voice, "Why do I always
find them? It's not like I'm a healer or nothing.." Her bangs are blown out of
her face with another sigh and she shrugs, putting a hand on Guy's shoulder,
"Don't move too much, you're hurt.. Just hold still and I'll fix you up as best
I can." She holds her hand over the worst of the man's wounds and mumbles,
"Recovery." as a soft white light begins pouring from her fingertips. Of
course, Tasuki, Tama and Katt go unnoticed.
>Tasuki mumbles, "Tama-chan is making snap-judgements over the gender of
peoples." to Katt.
>Tasuki mumbles, "Tama-chan ..... ..... snap-judgements over ..... .....
of ..... .." to Katt.
>Katt sweatdrops. "Oh. So... he's a pervert too?"
>Tamahome walks towards the south again, as he rubs his head. >.< "...."
>Incidentally, Tama's 'merchandise' is still resting on the ground where it fell.
>Guy is sort of hearing what's going on. Sort of. He isn't doing any sort of
rreaction, though, as he weakly tries to wave Lina off. "...Kewne.. get back.
Just... back. Get away... while you can..." There's something clasped in his
hand, tightly. Looks like some sort of collar.
>Tamahome *_* and immediatly picks it up, of course! Can get lots of money out
of this! *_*
>Tasuki fehs, "I don't have to take this. Later."
>Tasuki leaves north.
>Katt shrugs. "He didn't need to be so touchy."
>Tamahome ehehs, and looks to Katsy. "Thats Tasuki allright...^_^;"
>Tasuki pages, "Ever notice we're both red-haired hotheads about 5'10? o.o" to
you.
>You page, "Lina's a red-head too, but she's shorter o.-" to Tasuki.
>Tasuki pages, "I know. Anyhoooooow, see ya." to you.
>Tasuki pages, "Night night." to you.
>Lina attempts to take the collar from Guy's hand with a gentleness one might
not expect from the firey redhead sorceress, while softly muttering as one
would to a child they were trying to calm. The usual 'everything will be
alright' speil. Then she closes her eyes to concentrate more on the spell.
Slowly, the worst of the bleeding begins to staunch. Though that's about the
best she can manage with him wiggling about like he is.
>Katt rubs the bridge of her nose. . o O ( What's going on? That guy got
blasted by a fireball, that guy is bleeding, that girl is robbing the bleeding
guy... )
>Lina isn't robbing him! Is just tucking it away for safekeeping so he doesn't
loose it. c.c
>..And Tama doesn't get his hands on it.
>Katt is safe. No pockets!
>Guy is trying to keep a deathgrip on that collar. Of course, a deathgrip is
easier if you're unhurt. Well, or if you're dead... and he's neither. It slips
out of his grasp, the hand hitting the ground again as he relaxes. Ah, magic
soothes the savage beast.
>Tamahome blinks at Lina, and HEYS! "You haven't paid for it yet! >.<"
>Lina blinks in startlment as she loses her concentration on the spell. A
deathly cold icey glare is cast over her shoulder at Tama. "Oh, you again."
Then she jumps to her feet and bursts into a rage, striding over to waggle the
collar she forgot she's holding under his nose threateningly. "Do you *Shake*
KNOW what could happen *shakeshake* if you break someone's concentration while
they're casting a spell, baka! *Rattle* Healing isn't my strong suit! I -don't-
*Waggle* NEED *waggleshake* MORONS interupting me!" She gives one final shake
with the collar and hits Tama on the nose; square between the eyes.
>Katt rubs her chin. "..."
>Tamahome frowns slightly at Lina, as he hrmphs. -.- Then blinks as he catches
the unexpected... He is smacked right between the eyes, and he is knocked
slightly back. Thankfully, hes stronger than a normal human. But, then, hes
taken alot allready today from this one sucke--err, lady. @.@ "....."
>Guy is hearing what's going on through the haze of pain. he might be somewhat
healed, but he still knows that he's hurt. ".....Kewne? ....is he gone...?
Where did he go?" It's a half-babbling tone. As though talking for him isn't
exactly an easy thing at the moment.
>Katt walks over to Guy, seeing as how Lina is occupied in dealing with
Tamahome. She bends down to look at him, asking, "Are you okay?" Stupid
question of the week.
>Lina uuurgs and spins on her heel, striding away from Tamahome as if she'd just
dismissed him as insignificant. In a moment she's back at Guy's side, stroking
his hair back out of his face so she can get a better look at the guy she's
trying to help. "Shh, s'okay. He's gone, no one's gonna hurt ya now." A glance
is cast up at Katt and she gestures with her chin toward Guy. "He's gonna need
more care than I can give him here.. Think you can help me carry him to the
Seventh Heaven or something? I might be able to at least clean his wounds
there.." A dirty look is shot Tama's way. "And maybe finish healing him if
-someone- doesn't interupt again."
>Katt rubs the bridge of her nose. "I can help, yeah."
>Tamahome sweatdrops slightly, and hrmphs. . o O ( .....Maybe she wasn't the one
who took it then, after all. o.o; ) (OOC: Gotta run off to make a late dinner,
so using this excuse. ^_^;) he ehehs, and slowly walks away. He knows this
gu--err, girl, is a bit too much. ^_^;;;
>Tamahome leaves north.
>Guy mumbles a little bit as what Lina's just said filters through to him.
Well.. at least he seemed to understand it, even if he didn't know who it was
from. He tries to stand up once again, reaching around as though searching for
something.
>Lina deftly moves to intercept his searching arm, attempting to slip it around
her shoulders and giving a slight nod for Katt to do the same for his other
side.
>Katt is apparently stronger then she looks. Even if not, the two of them manage
him easily.
>Well, that wasn't exactly what he was looking for... but he'll take it,
apparently, leaning on the supporting forms. "I don't need the help." he slurs,
indignantly, and trying to make his face smile. "I've had worse... really. Just
take me home..."
>Lina hrmphs and bows her head in a nod. "We'll take you home once you're fit
enough to do it yourself. Till then.. One step forward at a time."
>You fall in line behind Lina_Inverse.
>Guy falls in line behind Lina_Inverse.
>Lina_Inverse leaves north.
>Lina_Inverse leaves, with you following after.
Tyr Road [300]
The apartment buildings and hotels give way to smaller, less expensive and
privately owned buildings of like sort. Then those eventually dwindle to what
you find on either side of you now. Yes, various scents of delicious food of a
wide assortment of styles, flavours, and nationalities entices your olfactorial
senses..attempting to lure you in for a bite, or five. Make no mistake,
however. It doesn't come as cheap as those fast food places around southern
Tyr Road..though you'll definately appreciate the higher quality. At a point
up ahead, the road and street becomes an unpaved trail, towards the start of
the steep walls that the mountain atol surrounding Midgaard creates. A deep
gorge carved by forces long forgotten and lost to legend is to the west
here..and a suspension bridge has been erected so that pedestrians might take a
stroll across it to Sif Way to the east, and marvel at it.

Seventh Heaven Bar - Main Room
Tifa's Seventh Heaven Bar has a campy feeling to it, primarily constructed of
dark wood with occasional items for decoration. Several worn tables grace the
area near the door, looking beaten up from years of patrons. The bar is more
well kept, stocked with a vast amount of alcoholic beverages and components for
mixed drinks. The room is just a tad dimly lit, feeling cozy and familiar at
the same time. Other areas of interest are the entrance to the kitchen, and a
porch with some comfy chairs. All in all, the Seventh Heaven is a nice tribute
to what someone can put together for a business if they try. A machine for a
game similar to pinball sits on the less used side of the room, sporting an
"Out of Order" sign. Most of the damage that was obvious only a little while
ago is now repaired with more permenant fixes, so the bar once again is back to
it's former self.
[Exits : (B)ack Room, (K)itchen, (U)pstairs, and (O)ut ]
[Players : Lina_Inverse, Butz, Ryan, and Nabiki ]
Lina_Inverse arrives, with Katt and Guy following behind.
[Sleepers: Tifa ]
[Things : None ]
>Ryan is apparently talking to Nabiki
>Nabiki nods, "I didn't know if she had any family left or not..."
>Ryan nods to Nabiki, not noticing the arrivals yet. "A brother, but I haven't
seen him in a while."
>Nabiki asks, "Is that Kiichi?"
>Lina trudges in slowly with Guy between herself and Katt since they're
supporting him. She nods toward a table indicating to Katt to head that way.
"Let's sit him down there.. Then I can fix him up a bit."
>Nabiki turns to look at the trio that just entered.
>Ryan says, "His name was Janu-" He glances over his shoulder . o O ( Hey,
that guy's hurt! )
>Katt nods to Lina . o O ( He's heavier then he looks. )
>Guy is just following along... well, being hauled along. He's silent at the
moment.. he gave up talking a little while ago. It didn't seem to be doing any
good. He doesn't really look as though he knows what's going on, either... he's
just... following.
>Ryan sits up. "Hey, you, like, need any help or something?"
>Lina gives Ryan a breif glance before answering. "Yeah, could you get me a
cloth and some water? He's pretty badly hurt and I'd like him to be cleaned up
a bit so I can actually see what I'm healin." A chair is kicked out and spun
around with one foot before she carefully manuevers Guy into it. "Other than
that..not much." After a moment she adds another thought. "Unless you happen to
know a healer? It's not exactly my strong suit.."
>Ryan leapos over the bar to fetch the requested items. "Sorry, don't know any
healer handy. What happened to that guy?"
>Nabiki watches from where she's sitting, since she has no medical skills at all.
>Ryan . o O ( I know some first aid, but I'm no doctor... )
>Guy sits down as he's placed. "...not so hard, Kewne. ...I'm telling you I'm
fine." It sounds like he's complaining some, his eyes unfocused and dazed.
"....just get out of here.. it'd be safer...."
>Butz sits by, letting the other mage work her wiles. n.n;
>Katt stands over Guy. . o O ( I still don't know what happened... )
>Lina stands up and shrugs. "Dunno. He just..dropped out of the sky in some
magical burst." She nods toward Katt with a genuine grin, "Thanks." Then grabs
another chair and pulls it up alongside Guy's. She frowns again at the odd name
he keeps saying, and sighs deeply before mumbling to herself, "Maybe Enhance
Calm so he'll stop squirming.."
>Katt takes a step back, looking quite nervous.
>Ryan jogs back over to Lina, a clean towel, some water, and some burbon (in
case you need to disinfect) in hand.
>Maruah has arrived.
>Maruah boundbounds into the bar. Bounding, because she's gallomping along on
all fours. She skids to a halt nearish her entry point, picking herself to a
standing position and looking arounf brightly. ^n.n^
>Guy furrows his brow a little bit. It seems to suddenly be clocking in that
there are more than one voice here... "Kewne? Who'd you bring here? Wreath?
That you?" He looks up, muzzily, trying to get a look at the people.
>Katt . o O ( Wow, he's really far gone... )
>Lina takes the offered items from Ryan and sets them out on the table. Quickly
she pulls her dagger from her belt and holds it out to Ryan, "Cut his shirt
off. I can't get to that wound with that mess in the way." o O (Darn..I didn't
want to do this, but he just won't snap out of his fever enough for me to.. Oh
heck.) The power for another spell is carefully drawn and shaped into what her
will desires. Then, a quick touch to his forhead and it's released into him as
she entones the spell name. "Enhance Calm."
>Ryan takes the dagger. A bit crude, but... *swipe*
>Maruah tilts her head to the side, maybe to look at the room on a different
viewpoint. Eartips flickflick rapidly as she homes in on any noise in the now
apparently silent room. Then she blinks, peering carefully at... piku? She
turns her attention to Lina's patient. ^o.o^
>l mar
Maruah
Tawny, yellow-golden eyes lit by a constant, wicked delight for life seem, upon
casual observation, more suited to a wild animal. Their owner evidently agrees.
The sharp features of her human face are covered by a small half mask of golden
metal shaped to represent the head of a fox. One's attention is drawn by a
flicker of motion to pointed, fur covered ears tipped in black. Fittingly, her
hair color is of a rich orange red, and like nothing usually seen upon a human,
and it's rather obvious by now that she isn't. A waistlength cascade of hair is
kept loosely tied at the back of her head, underneath a layer cropped to the
same chin touching shortness of the bangs curving at the sides of her face.
A red-orange fox pelt takes the shape of a halter top, the collar of which is a
loosely draped white scarf. Running down the sides of her torso, it leaves the
belly bare,showing off a stretch of the form fitting white material that lies
under her entire costume like a second skin. The pelt and suit slide into the
dark leather of a gunbelt, which, in its own turn, holds up the gray, fringed
end material of her knee length skirt. Over all this rests the smooth leather
of a waist length travel coat, also gray, of a length to billow dramatically
with the right movements but not muss the skirts.
Her hands and forearms are hidden in heavy gauntlets of dull black metal with
subdued golden trim and matching rivets binding them together, with thick yet
flexible fingers appearing to be solid metal. The bodysuit seen on her torso
peeks out between the skirt and the tops of heavy boots. This footwear of black
leather starts at her knees, with insectile plates of chromed armor from there
to the tops of her feet. The eye is teased by glimpses of her long, bushy tail,
orange-red fur covering all but a short length at the tip, where it bushes out
into white.
Carrying:
Packbell's Head, and Kinu-Batsu Kami
>Nabiki heads out the front door.
>Nabiki has left.
>Derek has arrived.
>Guy blinks, his head jerking in startlement at the touch, then his body
relaxes, head sagging slightly as the spell finally takes effect. "....better."
he mutters briefly, before he relaxes the rest of the way, holding nice and
still all o fa sudden. Even with the shirt being cut off him.
>Derek steps in and takes a moment to take in the scene . o O ( Sheesh... )
>Ryan is more dexterous then he looks. That bloody shirt is off in no time. He
doesn't notice the enw arrivals, yet.
>Katt stands a few feet away from Guy, visibly nervous
>Maruah crawls closer to Guy, Lina and Ryan. Dropping to all fours in order to
'sneak' better, she tries to find a position where she can get a better look.
Maybe somewhere behind Ryan...
>Ryan isn't paying much attention. At the moment.
>Derek's eyes widen . o O ( No wonder that girl asked if I was a doctor! ) He
steps over, "Ryan, what the hell happened now?!?"
>Ryan sweatdrops, looking over at Derek. "Derek!?" Pause. "Don't look at me,
they-" points at Lina and Katt "-dragged him in."
>Lina is begining to look a bit pekid from all her spell casting. A midly weary
glance is cast toward Ryan and she smiles wanly, "..Don't s'pose I could get a
drink of water also?" She pikus in surprise at the yelling and scowls, "Pipe
down, wouldya? Unless you can offer any kind of help."
>Ryan nods to Lina, as he jogs back behind the bar. Guess we can't get through
one night without some random violence, eh?
>Derek glances at the ladies and arches an eyebrow, "Would either of you care to
elaborate as to why he's like this?"
>Guy can apparently hear the goings-on, but.. ehh.. he isn't trying to figure it
out. It seems like a lot of effort right now, for some reason. Spells... gotta
love 'em.
>Katt rubs her lower lip, her tail lashing back and forth. "I don't know, I
walked in and he was like that."
>Maruah stretches up, and up... slowly, making the attempt to peer over Ryan's
shoulder. Only he moves away, so she quickly slips up to take his vacated spot.
A -much- better view of the victim.
>Derek asks, "Ryan, get her a glass of water, willya?"
>What do you think I'm behind the bar for, Derek? He does so, bringing it back
over to Lina.
>Lina sighs darkly and mutters in a low, annoyed voice, "There was a burst of
magic, he appeared, he was like this. Now could you tone down the testosterone
and shut up?"
>Ryan blinks . o O ( Hey, it's that... wierd girl... ) O_o He peers at
Maruah
>Butz has disconnected.
>Maruah is -not- hovering to make first dibs on Guy if he doesn't make it.
Really she isn't. ^u.u^ She quietly watches Lina at work, shifting her
complete attention between the soceress' face and Guy's face.
>Guy (OOC) <.<; at Maruah.
>Maruah (OOC) looks completely innnocent. c.c
>Ryan (OOC) ^^;
>Shelgyr has arrived.
>Lina gives another sigh. This one thankfull. And she chugs back the water with
one gulp by tipping her head back and pouring it into her mouth. "Ah, that hit
the spot!" She rubs her hands together and holds them out toward Guy once more,
"Here goes nothin.. Recovery."
>Maruah is standing near a very injured Guy. Watching that man and Lina at work.
She's managed to get quite the front row seat; directly beside the body of the
injured man.
>Katt watches Lina. She knows zippo about sorcery, but she's at least wise
enough to let a competent lady (... well, sorta) handle this.
>Ryan . o O ( That... girl better not try something... seems harmless, but I
don't want her to cause trouble by accident o.-; )
>Shelgyr had only meant to peek his head in, but now that he's found something
interesting, he makes his way as quietly as he's able toward the scene, taking
note of his sister's presence as well. He's content to watch from the 'back
row', and since he's tall enough to see over most people's heads, it's not like
he's going to miss anything.
>Guy is pretty dazes still. His eyes are glazed... although if it's from the
injury or the spell, now, it's hard to tell. At least he's not moving around
this time, except for an occasional glance towards Lina and Maruah, trying to
focus on the people right near him.
>Cloud has arrived.
>Ryan paces back and forth . o O ( Well, at least nobody's fighting... )
>Maruah notes Guy's unfocused state, and the attempt being made to become more
concious. In her eyes, there's only one thing to do; lean forward and nuzzle
near the poor man's chin in reassurance, as well as offer a reassuring lick to
the cheek. ^n.n^ Her mind made up, she leans in to attempt doing just that.
Cloud climbs down the step slowly, pausing to look at... what IS that?
>Kazuma has arrived.
>Kazuma waves. ^_^
>And the the bar explodes! Critical mass!
>Cloud asks, "(OOC) He arrives and the bar explodes?"
>Kazuma OOC "That's about my luck. :)"
>Kazuma says, "What's up, folks? ^_^"
>Guy says, "(OOC) Oh great. As if I wasn't hurt already. n.n;"
>Kazuma takes a seat and orders a drink. ^_^
>Katt stands a few feet away from the (wounded) Guy. Lina and Maruah are in
close, Lina healing and Maruah... tasting?
>Kazuma belays that drink order. "Hey, folks...you ok, dude?"
>The soft white flow of power that is Lina's spell works it's way over Guy's
wounds. Slowly, after what seems an eternity to her, they begin to knit and
mend. She's not as thorough with the healing as she could be since this spell
is pulling alot out of her, so she just heals the worst of it. Just enough that
he'll be able to live and heal the rest on his own. A bead of sweat trickles
along her brow the longer it continues, and finally, she breaks off and slumps
down into her chair. For a long while it seems as if she may have fallen
asleep. Then begins the slow mutter that is usual when she's talking to
herself. "..I always have to find them, don't I? No, it couldn't be a healer
that finds them, just me.. I really need to practice white magic more often."
*muttermumble*
>Derek shoots Lina an annoyed glare and turns to nod to Cloud (and gets back
from making ramen to eat o_o)
>Guy is looking relatively peaceful, as Lina works on healing his wounds. He
turns his head away from that nuzzle, wrinkling his nose at the tickle, then
giving a weak smile. "...Kewne. I'm telling you... I'll be fine." He does frown
in puzzlement. "But... who in the world is healing me?" He blinks, hsi eyes
actually trying to focus some, not that it dioesn't hurt as much.
>Derek blinks and looks back to Lina as she mutters, "Is he okay..?"
>Ryan finally spots Cloud, strolling towards him. "... No, i don't know what
happened, Spikey."
>Maruah sniffs a bit. Then with a snort, she settles back to sulk a moment that
her gestures were so ill received. But only for a moment. Her interest picks up
again as she looks around and spots Shelgyr. She lifts a hand and waves wildly
in greeting to him.
>Ryan . o O ( I swear, there has to be a wierdness magnet in the basement of
this place or something. )
>Shelgyr grunts softly to acknowledge his sister's greeting, baring his fangs
in a decidedly happy grin. He doesn't wave back. 's not his thing, but he does
nod enthusiastically.
>Derek says, "(OOC) Nah, that's just you, Ryan..."
>Kazuma has disconnected.
>Katt slips outside during the commotion... she doesn't know who this guy is,
but she helped him, so her conscience is somewhat cleared...
>o
You leave 7th heaven destined again for the chaos of the city.
