City Square
Welcome to the middle of the sleepy (yeah, right), humble mountain city of
Midgaard. The peaks that surround the somewhat smallish sprawl of
constructions about you appear a vibrant, cool purple at this distance..capped
with off-white snow at the tops. Although the town itself recieves little
precipitation from being sheltered by this atol of sheer rock, a cold wind does
comb and filter its way through..providing a brisk, though arid, atmosphere.
On the southwestern pointing end of town, a small, manmade pass in the
mountain valley allows for easy access from the bustling world outside. To
your north and west are the commercial districts..manufacturing, shipping, and
selling various consumable goods. In the east, to the 'horizon', appear to be
homes of various architectural influences..the more wealthy of said houses
bordering a small alpine lake and park. To the south, the middle-class homes
continue, thinning out just before the open gap to the highway beyond.
As for where you stand..it is the Midgaard City Square..Several government
offices and the larger buildings can be found on the sides of the slightly
misnomered elliptical, cobblestoned intersection. No actual automobile traffic
passes here, being routed through the side streets..this is a strictly
pedestrian and bicycle zone. A large, granite fountain with a statue of Odin
atop it towers nearly two stories prominantly in the center. There are also
benches about for taking a quiet repose from the hustle of daily life.

>Tasuki arrives from the north.
>Hex arrives from the north.
>Katt sits on a bench, showing her remarkable maturity by sitting there, chin
resting on her hand, looking bored and/or depressed.
>Tasuki steps into the square quietly, giving a quick glance around. He spots
Katt, walking over to her. "Yo, Katt-chan."
>Hex gets an evil grin as he sees Katt. But quickly his smile vanishes as he
noices Tasuki.
>Katt blinks, sitting up when she hears Tasuki. "Hmm...? Oh, hiya." Luckily for
everyone involved, she hasn't seen Hex yet.
>Tasuki raises his palm in a silent wave, even though he's only standing two
feet away. When his hand drops, he spins around, plopping down on the bench, a
bit away from her, "Ooi, they got a new bench already?"
>Katt flashes a smirk at that. "Public works moves fast around here..." They
certainly have lots of practice.
>Hex shakes his head quietly and slinks off into the shadows.
>Tasuki folds his arms behind his head, leaning back in his seat. His gaze
shifts to the north, towards the mountain, "If I built myself a home up
there...would you help me?"
>Katt blinks, rubbing the bridge of her nose. "Don't see why not... don't know
anything about housebuilding though."
>Tasuki shrugs a bit, rubbing the back of his head, "Neither do I, but it
couldn't be ~that~ hard!"
>Katt nods to that one. Famous last words...
>From the shadows, a single glass is tossed into the air by an unseen watcher.
There is a sharp crash when it "runs into" the pavement.
>Katt glances towards the source of the noise. "...?"
>Hex chuckles to himself just to make his presence known.
>Katt rests her chin on her hand once again. "Oh, it's just that monkey."
>Hex says, "So Miss Pussy, I'm still "Just that monkey". I would think that by
now you would at least use my name."
>Katt hmmphs. "Soon as you stop being annoying."
>Hex laughs again. "I would not talk about being annoying after nearly breaking
my nose and ruining my meal."
>Tasuki sniffs the air, "Smells like burnt loser around here..." He closes his
eyes, rubbing the back of his head into his arms, relaxing himself further. z.z
>Katt hmmphs again. "S'your own fault having such a wear nose. You needed the
lesson."
>Hex says, "Lesson of what you snooty wench. If it wasn't for your fan tossing
bodygaurd, you would have felt to cool feeling of a stick to your face."
>Katt yawns. I do believe she's mocking you 'c.c'
>Tasuki peers at Katt, "Fan tossing...?" He shrugs, "If that were a valid
insult, I'd be insulted...but I don't think I've ever thrown my fan
before...o.o"
>Hex says, "If you were a weren't vaild @$$hole you wouldn't be insulted."
>Katt tries to decide whether to whip out the staff. She isn't in top spirits,
so, she'll let Hex try something first.
>Tasuki is too relaxed to kick butt, so, he gives the monkey man another chance.
Besides, burnt monkey hair *smells.*
>Hex into the light, Hex holds out a dirty pokeball. "Don't make me use my
Mewtwo bub."
>Katt glances at Hex out of the corner of her eye, and exhales.
>Tasuki makes the best shocked suppression he can, looking more like someone who
just sucked on a lemon, "Not MEWTWO! Don't send your little pet cat at me..."
He rolls his eyes, then laughes to himself.
>Hex tosses the ball at Tasuki's feet. "Pokeball, release pokemon on my command."
>Bebi_Pikachu has arrived.
>Katt categorizes this as 'Hex trying something'. Now, Katt may be a pretty
face, but she is quite a talented young lady... the second Hex makes a quick
gesture she's in motion, with a quick crouch and -leap-, a good 30' back, onto
the top of a lamppost. Her staff drawn and twirling in her hand, she looks down
at Hex. "Bad move, buster."
>Tasuki snatches the ball up, before the pokemon has a chance to be released. He
examines it a moment, "Sugoi. It's one of those things Luke had...a...baseball.
I'm glad I looked it up. n.n Katt-chan, do you know how to play?"
>Bebi_Pikachu looks down at the people, watching from a tree branch.
>l bebi
Bebi_Pikachu
Bebi Pikachu appears in Episode, Pikachu's Goodbye! and in the anime, Poketto
Monstaa! You see a really small electric mouse. This is a electric pokemon
called, Pikachu. But its much smaller then Satoshi(Ash Ketchem)'s Pikachu. It
could be a baby Pikachu. It looks like a yellow furred mouse with pointed ears
and black tips. The baby Pikachu has black beady eyes and little tiny black
nose. It has rosey red cheeks on its face and it sparks to electrocute people
to protect itself. The Pikachus arms and fat and small with little tiny paws
and fat little legs that you can't see very well. Its mouse-feet are almost as
small as its paws. The Pikachu will sometimes walks on two feet or run around
on all fours. *piku* It's tail doesn't look like a normal-mouses tail, it is
the shape of a lightning bolt.
Carrying:
>Katt blinks, looking down at Tasuki, her thunder stolen (so to speak). "Huh?"
>Tasuki shrugs, "Okay, here goes. I'm the guy called the pitcher, and you're
the..." He scratches his head, waiting for the word to come to mind, "You're
the batter. I throw this to you, and you smack it as far away as you can.
Okay? n.n" . o O (So nice of the monkey to give us a baseball, I guess he isn't
a total ****in' jerk...)
>Katt scratches her chin a moment, trying to figure out what Tasuki is up to. It
strikes suddenly, and a sadistic little smirk crosses her face. A little shift
on the grip... "Whenever you're ready!"
>Hex walks into the light with two things: A golfclub and a bag of golfballs. "A
baseball, ummmm YEA! It's a baseball that I stole from a Mewtwo. Wanna play a
game?"
>Elmdor has arrived.
>Bebi_Pikachu blinks, "Pii.."
>Katt is standing on top of a lamppost. Talk about good balance.
>Hex gets a good grip on his golfculb and sweats like a pair of gym socks.
>Tasuki draws his arm back, and in a complex series of gesticulations...he lobs
the ball to Katt. Obviously, he isn't a major leaguer yet.
>Elmdor wanders up the side-walk... hands in his pockets.
>Katt whistles to herself as the pokeball wobbles through the air towards her.
Sorry Bebi, but she doesn't know what these are. There's the wind up...
*thwack* Into the bleachers! Or right toward's Hex's head, either way 'c.c'
>Bebi_Pikachu watches, "Piikaa.." o.o
>Hex smacks the ball back at Katt with a hard stroke of his golfclub.
>Tasuki scratches his forehead... "That wasn't a homerun...o.o"
>Joel has arrived.
>Katt hmmphs. How annoying! Katt gives it a good 'ol *ker-BAT* right into the
city fountain.
>Katt is standing on top of a lamppost, apparently...playing baseball?
>Bebi_Pikachu n.n; is watching from a tree branch. ;p, "Pikachuu.."
>Joel is sitting on the edge of the city fountain, sucking the cream out of an
orange creamsicle. Alas; the object Katt shot landed RIGHT next to him, dousing
his jacket. Joel's normally vacant face lights up with anger as someone has
committed a lethal sin-they have gotten his jacket wet. Plans for killing the
heathen are changed when he finds out, by the law of line segments, that the
projectile indeed came from Katt.
>Tasuki says, "Oh well, time for me to get mine out..." He slips his left foot
out, turning around to dash towards Hex. He watches as he rushes, waiting for
Hex to draw his 'weapon,' err, golf club.
>Hex grins like a moron and then lines up 10 golfballs infront of him. He winds
back and with a mighty stroke, he sends a golfball rocketing towards (where
else can I take this dude down?) Tasuki's groinal area.
>Bebi_Pikachu closes its eyes, "Pii.."
>Katt taps her chin. The initial sortie is finished... Now for round two! Katt
turns to face Hex (still managing to keep her footing up there), and, after a
short sequence of rude gestures, begins the taunting. "Hey, monkey butt! You're
aiming at the wrong person... I know you're stupid and you smell and all, but I
didn't think you were BLIND too! I mean, even if you ARE incompetent and all,
you could at least TRY to attack me, y'know...?"
>Tasuki, not about to let his manhood be taken away with such of a cheap shot,
crouches down, sliding forward on his knees. The pleasant rubbing, the sound of
road-rash, accompanies him. He whips an expanded tessen out, the iron fan
(thankfully) deflecting the balls. And now he's about ten feet away from Hex.
He grits fanged teeth and says, "That was f***in' cheap, man."
>Bebi_Pikachu o.O;
>Hex winks at Tasuki and fires ball after ball at Tasuki.
>Thanks Hex. By focusing your attention on poor (soon to be emasculated at this
rate) Tasuki, you leave yourself wide open to Katt's vengeful counterattack.
Know that little saying about how cat's always land on their feet? Well, we
won't go into that (racist preconceptions!), but Katt certainly does,
especially when she's leaping off from a lamppost, and her target is a certain
Hex's head.
>Elmdor blinks a bit... waking up and shaking his head to clear it. He turns
and looks at all the goings on... eyes very wide, "What in the hell is going
on?!" o.o;
>Hex's also swinging his golfclub like a pycopath to bewarned that you'll have
to get through that line of attack first.
>Aerith has arrived.
>Tasuki shakes his head. He is *not* going to let himself get suckered into
dodging again. His ever-famous cache phrase pours from his lips, (at least,
ones I can type without censoring,) "Lekka shien!" He whips the fan upwards, a
flaming cyclone cascades towards the little monkey man. Not as fast as the
usual, direct inferno, though. It does make the projectiles go away, giving
Tasuki time to get up and move to the other side of the battle. ...of course,
he forgets the one ball closest to him, getting pegged in the groin with a nice
solid golf ball. Well, to save your virgin eyes from my words, let's just say
he is now on his side, muttering various curses. u.u
>Elmdor (OOC) woohoos and gives Tasuki two thumbs up, "And I thought I was the
only one who posed so hugely when provoked." n.n
>Katt (OOC) Wow, he topped me n.n
>Katt's little impromptu head stomp will come after Tasuki's little flame flies
by... she doesn't feel like being roasted as well. As for Hex's wild flailing,
no way a golf club will stop a falling person, though you'll probably bruise
poor Katt a tad.
>Elmdor grumbles a bit and clenches his fist. He stares at Hex and the other
two... feet planted solidly into the ground as he glares at the goings on.
Obviously he's pissed at the third day, for him, of monkey business... his
aura flaring and his silvery hair starting to lift a bit, "I... am... getting..
so.. tired of THIS!" >.<;;;
>Aerith had just been wandering by, going out for her usual evening stroll when
she happened to catch sight of that flaming 'lekka shien' of Tasuki's. She
pauses and stares in wide wonderment at the scene in the square, shaking her
head slightly from time to time. No reason for her to get involved, not her.
Though she doesn't really have anything better to do, so just peeks around the
edge of a building to watch everyone else. o O (Wonder what this fight is over.)
>Bebi_Pikachu (OOC) acks at the long poses!! x.x
>Bebi_Pikachu has disconnected.
>Tasuki holds his groin in pain. Ooooooo, boy. There's a weakness. He lays on
his side a few moments, "Son of a *****...>.<"
>Joel sits on the fountain, pointing and laughing. At Tasuki or Hex it is not
clear.
>Katt waits to see if she put the smack down on Hex '^^';
>Joel (OOC) yups at Elmdor and pokes Hex with his microphone. "You still here,
man?"
>Tasuki whispers, "Here we go again. u.u" to you.
>Katt (OOC) ... And Hex runs off again -.-;
>Joel (OOC) pokes Hex again. 17 minutes now? I think RL of Borg has assimilated
him.
>Tasuki (OOC) wants pizza. u.u
>Elmdor says, "(OOC) I say we wrap his banana-ass up in barb-wire and feed him
to the lions!! >.<"
>Katt (OOC) All in favor?
>Joel says, "(OOC) ... that's evil. I certainly don't approve of such violence."
>Joel says, "(OOC) [Wayne Campbell] Noooooootttt."
>Elmdor (OOC) sticks his tongue out at Joel... then raises his hand, "Aye!" n.n
>Katt lands on Hex's head. *Ka-WHUMP* Come in Houston... the kitty has landed.
And it would seem Hex has fallen quite unconscious '6.6'
>Hex has disconnected.
>Aerith (OOC) cackles at Katt
>Elmdor (OOC) cackles. n.n
>Elmdor (OOC) oops. c.c;
>Katt (OOC) What timing 'n.n'
>Joel exclaims, "(OOC) Woohoo!"
>A janitor comes by and sweeps up Hex into his dustpan, running away with him!
>Hex has left.
>Elmdor just sorta stands there... staring at Katt and fuming a bit. He watches
the monkey pass out... then lets out a slight sigh of relief; mumbling, "Can't
you control a simple monkey-beast, Katt?" -.-
>Joel applauds at the Katta, amazed that SOMEone has revenged the worlds
greatest evil-whapping a man in the...ANYwhos, Joel like...applauds and stuff,
whistling to Tasuki and Katt appreciatively.
>Katt suddenly turns to Elmdor, "He ain't MY friend." 'o.o'
>Tasuki glances up at Katt, from his position on the ground...as well as all the
new arrivals. o.o;
>Joel looks about the square, watching Tasuki twitch with some morbid
curiousity. The boy turns to Katt, sucking on a creamsicle. "... is he
harrassing you?"
>Elmdor blehs... lifting his hands to pull his cloak out of the way and throw
it over his shoulder, "... I figured that. Though he always seems out to...
poach you or something." He puffs... walking over to the small group;
glancing at Tasuki in his partially handicapped position. c.c
"Cuz... that's like... illegal and stuff." quoth the Joel.
>Katt steps off of the monkey's head, and rubs the bridge of her nose. Not
stopping to check if Tasuki is alright (^^;) she quickly replies to Joel,
"Yeah, that ugly monkey butt is SOOO annoying!"
>Joel nods sluggishly at Katt, like he's talking to a retard. "... Yup.... that
wasn't.... like, very nice... I'm going to like, uh... whup his arse. Yup."
>Katt smiles winsomely. "Already did. It was kinda fun." 'n.n'
>Elmdor puts his hands on his hips... looking at the ape. . o O ( Maybe I
should burn his ass up.. ) u.u
>Joel gives Katt a vacant look. . o O (Geez, not only that she doesn't look very
bright, she's quite the violent type.... pritty cute, though.) "I bet it was...
did he like- get abandoned by the circus when they found out like, they didn't
need a _monkius retardus_?"
>Katt is smarter then she looks. She just has simple pleasures. She shrugs at
Joel's comment, then finally remembers Tasuki. A glance over her shoulder at
the downed tessen-wielder... "Um... you okay?"
>Joel looks at Tasuki too, clutching his id. Tasuki is clutching it; not Joel,
because Joel's not the kind of person to...nevermind. Joel looks over towards
Tasuki, wincing. "... that's gotta hurt."
>Tasuki sits up, resting on his ankles. He looks up at Katt, "Fine...I only got
hit once..." He winces, just from remembering it. -.-
>Katt winces as she puts her hand over her mouth. "Sure... looks painful?"
>Joel looks towards Katt, starting to feel pain just from thinking about it.
"You betcher ***."
>Katt looks around the square . o O ( Started drawing a crowd 'o.o'; )
>Tasuki stands slowly, brushing his knees off. His white pants are a bit burnt,
a bit torn. Road-rash, we all know how it goes...
>Joel decides to do something nice for the poor man, since he is obviously
getting no sympathy from the Woran. The boy offers Tasuki a bite of his orange
creamsicle.
>Elmdor looks arounda bit... making sure no one is watching. Then... gives
Hex's knocked-out body a swift kick to the ribs. u.u
>Aerith leaves north.
>Katt doesn't like large crowds... well, that's not quite true, she doesn't mind
performing... it's just when you're standing there, and they're looking at
you... '>.>' '<.<'; . o O ( I... think I'll... head to the cafe. )
>Elmdor taptaps his boot..........
>Katt zips off. Pursue if you dare. Luckily, she's in a good mood (a
Hex-whupping tends to do that), but seeing as how she originally came out here
for some fresh air 'o.o';
>n
You depart to the north.
** Walk cut **
Main Room
This is a sizable and comfy room of a relatively small cafe on the corner of
Thor East and Tyr. Tables are lined about neatly in an L coordination about a
likely L-shaped counter, where foot stools are placed for extra seating.
Behind the counter, a large cutout in the wall allows communication between the
registreers and the cooks, and the waitress or waiter on duty moves back and
forth from this room to the kitchen through a wooden door placed to the side of
it. Set into the northeastern corner, are two public payphones, the restrooms,
and some stairs, apparently leading up to an apartment above. There is little
to know decoration of the mostly wood-furnished structure, and what there is
seems to be following a 50s theme. With a few nostalgic objects of yore, most
notably a jukebox. (Use 'menu' and 'order' to order things.)

>Katt zips inside, sliding to a halt and taking a seat.
>Elmdor walks in from the street outside.
>Katt sits at a table, trying her best to be inconspicuous. It doesn't work.
>Elmdor wanders in... tired looking. He rubs his forehead a bit... looking up
at the gathered persons, "Know of any good stress relievers, Katt?" u.u;
>Katt quips dryly, "Smacking Hex around." '-.-';
>Brave Fencer Musashi exclaims, "OLIVES!"

out. U.U

>Brave Fencer Musashi pops an olive in his mouth and sucks out the center o.o
"Yeah?"
>Katt . o O ( What does he have for olives!? 'O.o'; )
>Elmdor lifts one of his gloved hands... pointing at Musashi, "Can you use those
swords?" o.-
>Kei walks in from the street outside.
>Katt sits at a table, trying to be inconspicuous. Her grey jacket helps. Sorta.
... Well, not really.
>Brave Fencer Musashi grins proudly of himself and draws out Fusion, the
smaller, yellow glowing katana, "Of course I can pal! Why would I carry them if
I couldn't?!"
>Kei strides in, whistling, her gun holstered to her side. At the sight of a
sword being drawn, she immediately reaches for her weapon.
>Katt tenses up. Only guns she's seen before have been Hex's, and he didn't
leave a good first impression 'O.o'
>Kei says, "(OOC) Beautiful timing. ^.^"
>Elmdor ehs and shrugs, "Well the monkey carries a gun and cannot use it..." He
rolls his eyes... then chuckles a bit at the kid and nods his head towards the
huge samurai sword on his back, "... you think you would be up for a little
spar with the legendary Masamune?"
>Brave Fencer Musashi is totally oblivious to the gun, but stares at Elmdor a
little bit, "Spar? Uh.. Masamune? Sure I guess, but what's a Masamune?"
>Katt . o O ( Oh great, NOW what's going on!? )
>Kei pauses, blinking, then speaks loudly, "All right, okay!" She whistles. "If
you're going to fight, take it outside!"
>Elmdor reaches up behind him and slowly draws the Masamune from his back...
holding it idly infront of him; a slight red aura around the blade, "This...
its a legendary blade." o.-
>Katt looks at the 'legendary blade'. She doesn't seem all -that- impressed. Of
course, she has a short attention span.
>Brave Fencer Musashi looks over Masamune, then hehs and puts Fusion back in
it's sheath, "Yeah, it's nice.", then reaches behind him and draws Lumina, the
huge Meat Cleaver of a sword that glows red as well, "But mine's a lot cooler!"
>Elmdor figures at this point the only persons who have heard of the Masamune
know of Sephiroth. And who likes Sephiroth?! >.<
>Katt does seem more impressed with Musashi's weapons 'n.n' If not with
Musashi himself 'c.c'
>Brave Fencer Musashi doesn't even know who Sephiroth is, sounds like some weird
car company o.o
>Elmdor (OOC) snickers. n.n
>Kei pauses, recategorizing the whole situation as a "men showing off the size
of their weapons" posedown, and smiles faintly to herself.
>It's a phallic thing
>Tasuki walks in from the street outside.
>Kei locks down her holster, as she heads for another table to sit down at.
>Kei (OOC) glomps Tasuki. "My soulmate! *.*"
>Elmdor smirks at Musashi, "Well if my sword glowed blue and I was as short as
you, I might think so too... anyways." He then begins to think... wandering
exactly what type of person he is for asking a kid to spar with him. u.u;;
>Hex walks in from the street outside.
>Katt is trying to be inconspicuo... ah, hell with it. Cat-girls tend to stick
out in a room, especially when they're carrying large staves '-.-';
>Tasuki says, "(OOC) This is what I love about being bishounen...*.*"
>Brave Fencer Musashi swings Lumina once or twice and then spins it around so he
can shove the weapon back in it's sheath. He blinks at Elmdor and rubs the back
of his neck, "Uh.. who has a blue sword? Mine are yellow and red o.o"
>Tasuki walks in quietly, only a few feet into the room. He folds his arms,
looking around the room for someone. Not hard to spot, she is. Especially when
she's a cat-girl, carrying a large stave. c.c
>Katt has a dull grey jacket! Reallly! That makes her blend in! Really!
>Hex walks in unharmed and unhappy.
>Elmdor decides to put up his sword as well, "Nevermind, kid... I don't think
it would be very fair. I need someone my own size or soemthing." u.u
>Brave Fencer Musashi...! "Hey! You're not going to get like Kojiro are you and
chase me all around if I beat you? That dork."
>Brave Fencer Musashi o.o "Oh, fine then, I'll just eat my olives u.u"
>Brave Fencer Musashi. o O ( He knows I'm too much for the geezer to handle ^_^ )
>Hex plops himself at a table and hails a waiter.
>Katt has already beaten Hex once today. That's enough for now. She hasn't seen
tasuki yet, but that'd probably change if he appraoches.
>Kei orders beer, grinning in anticipation over something.
>Hex says, "(OOC) What are you talking about Katt? You never laid a hand on me."
In a page-pose to you, Tasuki whistles
>Katt (OOC) You idled and logged off. Since you were unable to finish things,
I finished 'em for you.
>Kei . o O ( Yuri's never going to find me now... )
>Hex says, "My Computer shutdown and I had to restart the whole da** thing."
>Katt (OOC) Well, I'll happily pick up where we left off... the participants are

City Square
Welcome to the middle of the sleepy (yeah, right), humble mountain city of
Midgaard. The peaks that surround the somewhat smallish sprawl of
constructions about you appear a vibrant, cool purple at this distance..capped
with off-white snow at the tops. Although the town itself recieves little
precipitation from being sheltered by this atol of sheer rock, a cold wind does
comb and filter its way through..providing a brisk, though arid, atmosphere.
On the southwestern pointing end of town, a small, manmade pass in the
mountain valley allows for easy access from the bustling world outside. To
your north and west are the commercial districts..manufacturing, shipping, and
selling various consumable goods. In the east, to the 'horizon', appear to be
homes of various architectural influences..the more wealthy of said houses
bordering a small alpine lake and park. To the south, the middle-class homes
continue, thinning out just before the open gap to the highway beyond.
As for where you stand..it is the Midgaard City Square..Several government
offices and the larger buildings can be found on the sides of the slightly
misnomered elliptical, cobblestoned intersection. No actual automobile traffic
passes here, being routed through the side streets..this is a strictly
pedestrian and bicycle zone. A large, granite fountain with a statue of Odin
atop it towers nearly two stories prominantly in the center. There are also
benches about for taking a quiet repose from the hustle of daily life.

>Tasuki shakes his head. He is *not* going to let himself get suckered into
dodging again. His ever-famous cache phrase pours from his lips, (at least,
ones I can type without censoring,) "Lekka shien!" He whips the fan upwards, a
flaming cyclone cascades towards the little monkey man. Not as fast as the
usual, direct inferno, though. It does make the projectiles go away, giving
Tasuki time to get up and move to the other side of the battle. ...of course,
he forgets the one ball closest to him, getting pegged in the groin with a nice

Hex sets the gun's setting to 'mist' and sprays it at the oncoming projectiles

Behold. o_o"
>Katt (OOC) Not that simple, Hex. Frozen or not, physics say Katt is still
landin' on your head n.n
>Amelia looks down from her high lofty position... "What... what... fortuitious
timing! I actually showed up when a battle was going on... " She seems rather
surprised at it, herself...
>Hex comes crashing to the ground as the kitty flies from above, knocking his
gun in the mist to somewhere he cant see.
>Katt rolls away from the little collision, shivering to herself 'O.O' She
may be wearing a jacket, but she still has no pants '-.-';
>Amelia (OOC) Hidoi! I must avert my unexperienced eyes! ;_;
>Katt (OOC) is furry '-.-' *bap
>Hex (OOC) gotta go, so I'll retreat. I gotta pose that.
>Tasuki says, "Damned monkey, you shouldn't harrass women, y'little crook..."
Nonetheless, he's still holding his 'special area' in pain.
>Xelloss ^_^;
>Amelia exclaims, "Crook?!!"
>Katt . o O ( Coldcoldcoldcoldlittletwerpcoldcoldcoldcold )
>Xelloss says calmly, "A crook! Indeed."
>Xelloss . o O ( As long as she does not chase after me, I will be happy. ^_^ )
>Amelia LEAPS off of the fountain, charging right on into battle!! "TOOOH! I
cannot allow thievery or injustice to prevail!!!!" And so she doesn't, flying
headfirst into Xelloss as she leaps...
>Hex in a quick flash of thought, picks his disarmed weapon from the ground and
runs towards the door cursing angrily. Too many people.
>Hex has disconnected.
>Joel arrives from the north.
>Amelia's waiting to collide with Xel ^^;
>Katt kneels on the ground, shivering something feirce, alternating teeth
clattering with rabid cursing ';.;'
>A janitor comes by and sweeps up Hex into his dustpan, running away with him!
>Hex has left.
>Joel-yep, you guessed it- sits upon the fountain with his baseball cap on
backwards, sucking the cream out of his creamsicle and looking at the scene
about. (OOC: Any environmental affects I should know about?)
>Tasuki manages to stands, and waddle over to Katt a bit painfully. He walks
like all the bowl-legged men you see in western movies. "You okay,
Katt-chan...?"
>Amelia's suspended in midair.
>Katt shouts, quite obviously angry, "I am going to KILL that !^&@(! MONKEY!"
>Xelloss says calmly, "Good night ^_^"
>Xelloss gets collided!
>Joel licks his creamsicle stoically, looking down at Katt with a calm,
collected glance. "... you've said that already."
>Xelloss says calmly, "Aah, it is my fate..."
>Xelloss says calmly, "Miss Amelia, have you been eating lately....? o_o"
>Xelloss opens his eyes in surprise.
>Amelia smacks up against Xelloss, knocking herself unconscious, and lands SMACK
on her back x.x
>Joel looks towards Tasuki vacantly, with another lick of his frozen treat.
"...Mmmmmkay. Is it like, safe to guess you got popped in the...uh... nads
again?" . o O (Two times in one hour? That's gotta hurt.)
>Xelloss twitches on the floor..
>Xelloss says calmly, "M..must you target me everytime? -_-;"
>Katt (OOC) Note to Joel: Hex actually showed up again, so ICly, we continued
where we left off
>Tasuki holds his tessen out, "Lekka shien!" And...he waves the fan, much like
fanning himself. A small fire appears from the fan, warming the area around he
and Katt, much like a fire place. "How's this? n.n"
>Katt chatters, "M-m-m-much better. D-d-damn monkey..."
>Joel says, "(OOC) ... sure."
>Amelia x.x;
>Amelia's unconscious now, and there she lies till tomorrow x.x
>Amelia has disconnected.
>Tasuki holds the fan a little closer to Katt, although not close enough to
ignite her. Two reasons, primarily:A)Well, we don't even need to mention rule
A. Tasuki, being nice to a women. Put two and two together if you haven't
already, people! @.@ B) Burnt cat smells.
>Don't forget C) Katt is vengeful 'n.n'
>And Tasuki's hard headed. ;p
>Joel sucks on his creamsicle looking at Katt and Tasuki, unwittingly asking.
"... you got yer arse whupped, didn't you?"
>Tasuki says, "He fled...we didn't." He flashes a glare at Joel, "Don't make us
cook you too, y'****in' brat. -.-"
>Katt snaps, "HELL NO! That damn monkey just ran off before we could finish his
ass off!"
>Xelloss says calmly, "I feel somewhat faint. Ah, it is fate.. @_@;"
>Xelloss melts like a wicked witch.
>Xelloss has disconnected.
>Joel looks at Katt and Tasuki, grinning sardonically. "...Don't call me that or
threaten me. I was just asking, mmkay?... he ran off?" Joel sucks again on his
creamsicle. "...the wuss. c.c"
>Katt nods. "Excactly! Bloody coward...! I HATE that!"
>Tasuki peers at Joel, annoyedly, "I'll threaten whoever I damn well please.
-.-" A lick of flame blows threateningly near Katt's chin.
>Katt eeps, falling backwards 'O.o'
>Joel makes a loud slurking sound. His pants are definitely on too tight. "... I
could whup his arse." inquireth the Joel. The boy looks over towards Tasuki.
"...mmmkay. Just don't like; threaten me. I like, look like a dweeb but I
can...uh...whup arse."
>Joel (OOC) uses the phrase 'whup arse' a lot.
>Tasuki holds the fand over his shoulder, flicking his wrist as he says, "Shoo,
shoo, shoo." The flames lick at Joel's nose each time he repeats 'shoo.'u.u
>Joel. o O (Dammit. Not fire.) "...mmkay...you wanna bite of my creamsicle?...it
like, tastes real good."
>Katt . o O ( Why do they cluster around me? '-.-' )
>Tasuki shudders annoyedly, before waving the fan between he and the felled Katt
again. "You warming up all right, Katt-chan?"
>Katt sweatdrops. At least he managed to avoid singling her. "Y... yeah. But my
jacket's all wet!" '>.<'
>Joel shrugs, walking off towards the south. "Okee. See you all later. I bet you
whup that pervert's shiny arse. Bai."
>Tasuki says, "(OOC) I'm...too sexy for my clothes..o/~"
>Katt (OOC) *WHAMS* Tasuki
>Joel . o O ( And he doesn't even wanna creamsicle... weirdo. )
>Joel has disconnected.
>Tasuki asks, "...you want to borrow mine, for now?"
>Katt shakes her head. "N-nah... not that cold out, really."
>Tasuki nods a bit. He's still fanning the fan. o.o
>Katt is appreciating the fan fanning. Even if she's plopped down on her fanny.
>Tasuki can't see you on your fanny, because he's fanning the fan, and while
fanning, the fan is emitting a flame, which obstructs his vision. o.o
>Katt hmmphs to herself. She's still a bit miffed, more because she didn't get
nearly enough licks in, rather then because she got half-frozen. "Want to get
something to eat? Hopefully that stupid monkey won't show up again." '>.<'
>Tasuki says, "Hai, sure." He continues to fan, however. "Are you warm enough
yet, or shall I keep doing this?" His wrist is getting a bit tired. He's only
human, after all. n.n;
>Katt has half a mind to tell you to keep going (you're my toy, my TOY!
BUWAHAHA!), but she is drying off. "Hmm? Oh, up to you, really..."
>Tasuki switches hands, then. That's an easier decision to make than completely
stopping, after all.
>Katt stands up, or tries to without getting singed by the tessen. As usual,
she's apparently leading the group.
>Tasuki falls in line behind you.
>Tasuki adjusts the fan slightly, holding it a bit aways from his face, like a
torch. Ah, vision. How underrated.
>n
You depart to the north.
** Walk cut **
Main Room
This is a sizable and comfy room of a relatively small cafe on the corner of
Thor East and Tyr. Tables are lined about neatly in an L coordination about a
likely L-shaped counter, where foot stools are placed for extra seating.
Behind the counter, a large cutout in the wall allows communication between the
registreers and the cooks, and the waitress or waiter on duty moves back and
forth from this room to the kitchen through a wooden door placed to the side of
it. Set into the northeastern corner, are two public payphones, the restrooms,
and some stairs, apparently leading up to an apartment above. There is little
to know decoration of the mostly wood-furnished structure, and what there is
seems to be following a 50s theme. With a few nostalgic objects of yore, most
notably a jukebox. (Use 'menu' and 'order' to order things.)
[Exits : (O)ut ]
[Players : Elmdor, and Musashiden ]
[Sleepers: Sally, and Sonic ]
[Things : None ]
>Katt arrives, with Tasuki following behind.
>Katt walks in, slightly damp, followed close behind by a tessen-wielding Tasuki
'-.-'
>Elmdor glances over at Katt... then chuckles, "I've seen this before..."
>Tasuki enters the room sidewise, behind Katt. He's carrying what appears to be
a torch, which emits the kind of flame you'd see in a fireplace.
>Katt works her way over to a table, where she proceeds to slip her damp jacket
off. Yep, still no pants, and a staff to the head of the first person to say as
much. Presumably, Tasuki will follow, but I don't dare try to fathom his mind.
>Tasuki slides into the booth, accross from Katt. Well, it's hard to flick your
wrist when you're cramped in a booth, so the flame goes out, revealing what
appears to be a regular, plain old iron fan. He folds it, holstering this
deadly weapon on his back. n.n
>Katt orders a hamburger. Kaori-chan smiles, "One hamburger, coming up!"
>Kaori-chan yells in back to the cook, "Hamburger!" The cook nods, "Hamburger.."
>Kaori-chan finally comes out, Katt's hamburger in hand, and sets it before her,
"There ya are, sugar."
>Katt beams, and immediately digs into the food. '*.*' First things first. Get
mind off monkey.
>Katt beams, and immediately digs into the food. '*.*' First things first. Get
mind off monkey.
>Tasuki orders a hotdog, while Kaori-chan smiles and nods.
>Kaori-chan yells in back to the cook, "One hot dog!" The cook grins knowingly,
while Kaori heads back into the kitchen with a worried look. o O ( No.. ..not
that.. ..why me.. )
>Kaori-chan starts to bring the hotdog to Tasuki, but.. ..gets caught midway
back with a hunger in her eyes. Futilely, she covers her eyes, "No.. ..must..
..resist..the hotdog! You don't control me anymore!" Suddenly with a cackle,
she crams the poor frankfurter in her mouth, bun, wiener, toppings and
all..much to the shock of all gathered. As she comes back to..she looks around
with a blush..and slides back behind the counter as though nothing happened at
all. *^_^*
>Tasuki clasps his hands together. n.n . o O (Mmm, hot dog... I haven't had dog
in...what the!!) He mutters, "B****...-.-"
>Katt sweatdrops at Kaori's little... um... psychosis. "Oh yeah. The waitress is
crazy." 'n.n'
>Tasuki bangs his head against the table, at a nice, even interval.
*thud...thud...thud...*
>Katt asks the obvious question, "Isn't that painful?"
>Tasuki murmurs his reply, "Not hitting hard enough..."
>Katt smiles. "Ah, okay."
>Elmdor has left.
>Tasuki sits back up in his seat, wondering if he should try to order another
hot dog..u.u
>Katt would recommend against it, if you ask. As it is, she's busy downing her
hamburger.
>Tasuki glances around the room once more..
>Tasuki picks up a fork, deciding what he wants to eat. n.n
>Tasuki orders some coffee. Kaori-chan smiles, "Be right there!"
>After a short wait, Kaori-chan walks back out, and sets the steaming coffee
before Tasuki, "There ya go, hon."
>Tasuki eh-hehs, and pokes the liquid with a fork..."Ano.."
>Katt sweatdrops at Tasuki. "You drink it."
>Tasuki says, "Oh! n.n" He nods to her, "I knew that." He picks the glass up,
tilts his head back...and chugs.
>Katt smiles. Well, she proved she's smarter then you, so she's happy. Like I
said, simple pleasures n.n
>Weeeell, needless to say..."ITTAAAAAAIIIIIII!"
>Katt blinks. And blinks again. 'o.o'
>Tasuki's eyes water, he clutches his throat, and makes various gasping noises.
"Water...!" ;.;
>Katt smiles. "No, it's coffee!"
>Tasuki says, "I need water! ;.;" He slides out of his seat and over to the
counter, panting his next demand:"WATER!"
>Katt sweatdrops . o O ( ... '-.-'; )
>Tasuki waits impatiently, pacing back and forth for what seems like an
eternity, (to him at least. The real process takes about ten seconds.) before
he gets his water. He glugs it down, much appreciatingly.
>Katt finally asks, AFTER Tasuki gets his water, "You alright?"
>Tasuki nods, a bit of water dribbling down his chin. "My knees hurt a bit, not
to mention my *ahemgroinahem*, and I wanna kill that ****in' monkey."
>Katt hmmphs to herself, closing her eyes. "If he actually stood still and
fought he'd be street pizza by now."
>Tasuki rubs his forehead annoyedly. He's about as pissed about losing the
little S.O.B. as you are. "We had a chance to get him three or four times..."
>Katt taptaps her fingers on the table. "Obviously just walking up and beating
the snot out of him won't work. I need a plan..."
>Tasuki walks back over to the booth, popping a piece of ice in his mouth before
sitting back down. "What's frustrating is...as strong as the both of us
are...we haven't got him out of our way."
>Katt hmmphs. "Like I said, the little twerp is a wuss. Hell, the few times he's
stayed around long enough to get hit, one or two whaps and he's nearly out.
Hell, I've faced newbies in the arena with more stamina." '-.-';
>Tasuki hrrrrrrrrrrms, "You know, we've never really sparred before..."
>Katt smiles innocently. "S'okay, I wouldn't want to hurt you anyway. Not more
then a few bumps on the head, at least."
>Tasuki shrugs, "Sure, I'm kinda weak anyways..." Is he kidding? He usually
ALWAYS says the truth. Loudly. And we all remember the lightpost snapping
incident.
>Brave Fencer Musashi says, "Who you calling a twerp!? @_@"
>Katt hmms. She isn't one to pick up subtleties like that, but she does pick up
on something odd. Fortunately (?), she dismisses it 'n.n'
>Tasuki cracks his knuckles, "You just don't wanna hurt me, do ya?"
>Brave Fencer Musashi's head promptly falls back down and connects with the
table, snoring ensues z_z
>Katt whips the staff out. "Hmm? What was that?" 'n.n'
>Tasuki slides out of the table, "You want to take this outside? n.n"
>Katt pikus. "But I just ate!" 'o.o'
>Brave Fencer Musashi z z z z
>Tasuki says, "I just ate some coffee too, c'mon. n.n"
>Brave Fencer Musashi says, "(OOC) You -ate- coffee? O_O"
>Katt (OOC) Don't mind him, he's stupid 'n.n'
>Brave Fencer Musashi asks, "(OOC) Who? Me or the guy who ate the coffee?"
>Katt (OOC) Yes. 'n.n'
>Brave Fencer Musashi says, "(OOC) ..."
>Tasuki (OOC) n.n
>Katt ponders that for a moment. She doesn't really feel like it... but dammit,
a challenge is a challenge! And she IS still a bit frustrated from that !@^(!
monkey! "You're on!" '-.-'
>Tasuki says, "I won't use my tessen, just to make it fair. n.n" Of course, he
could probably snap your stick in two if he got within five feet of it, but
that's up to chance. n.n
>Tasuki ~strides~ out the door. Ooo, a good even spar. He likes the sound of
that.
>Tasuki has left.

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.

[Things : None ]
>Tasuki taps you on the shoulder from behind. "Peek-a-boo." God only knows how
he ended up behind you. o.o
>Katt swings around to tap you on the head with her staff. And it wasn't in her
hands before. "I see you."
>Tasuki clenches his fists, "You ready? I'm not gonna hold back....well, I'm not
going to kill you, but you know what I mean. n.n"
>Katt winks at Tasuki. "How many times to I have to tell you? Do not
underestimate me!" She punctunates the beats of the last sentence with rather
forceful taps on your head @.o
>Tasuki takes the first hit like the big man that he is, but sways out of the
way of the second, then ducks under the last two, charging at you with a quick
jab at your abdomen, which, if connected, will be matched with a strong and
sharp right cross.
>Katt was, luckily, expecting something like that. Well, to be fair, she was
hoping you'd say something first, but hey... take the blows as they come, eh?
Katt isn't about to take a jab to the gut though. Luckily for her, you never
said anything about her not using the staff, and she has spent several years in
training counterattacks. She leans back - you definately caught her off guard,
though, as you miss by only a hair, at best... as you prepare for the right
cross, she jabs the butt end of the staff toward your thigh. Not a crotch shot
(she isn't CHEAP!), but hopefully it'll ruin your balance just long enough for
her to make a nice escape.
>Tasuki takes the hit in the thigh pretty hard, the hit causing him to tilt and
roll to the right. But instead of pulling through with the cross, he tries to
grab her staff as he falls. Hey, he's got to take every chance he can get, if
he's gonna win this fight barehanded.
>Katt can't really do much about that. At least, not at the moment. You do get a
grip on the staff, the flaw in the theory is that Katt can fight barehanded
quite well. Like with those nice long legs? A good 'ol fashioned high kick to
the chest (she folds her toes though... no need for claws) should get your
attention away from the staff. And you better not be peeking.
>Tasuki yanks on the staff...as he rolls and falls on his butt. He'd actually
have a good view, if it weren't for that second's blink as the foot flew over
his face. Whew, that was close. Go for the view? Nah, he doesn't think about
those things in a fight. Releasing the staff, he jerks his feet up, to build
momentum, then rolls his body forward, flopping like a fish out of water. Can
the laughter, though, because when he rocks back again, he has enough momentum
to kick up at your jaw while he tries to get back on his own two...hands. This
is the most aerobic he can get, and he proves his agility by falling flat on
his face seconds after the attempted kick.
>Callan has arrived.
>Katt isn't about to let you land a little kick like that. The Woran are not the
strongest clan... the dragons claim THAT little title... but when it comes to
reflexes they're par excellance. The kick was quite nice, and would've left a
nice dent in poor Katt's chin, except for the little fact that she isn't there
when you kick. As you try to spot her, you do so, quickly - she's flipping
away, head over heels (so to speak), putting several meters between the two of
you. When she finishes her little show she smirks, and throws you a hearty
'bidaah'!
>Callan pauses on the threshold of the building she just exited, and *pikus*.
>Tasuki pushes himself up, annoyedly. -.- He turns to face her, then flashes a
menacing fanged grin, "I'm gonna beatcha, y'know. I never lose a fight. n.n"
>Katt smiles innocently. "Well go figure, neither have I!" 'n.n' Well, that
isn't quite true... but there were... extenuating circumstances in her fight
with Ryu '-.-'
>Callan exclaims, "Fish!"
>Katt would taunt Tasuki a second time, if it weren't for the sudden
interjection of the new arrival. Her attention snaps towards the girl (leaving
a nice opening for a cheap shot, if you're dead set on winning). "...?"
>Tasuki could have mentioned the same thing himself. Tamahome, Nakago, quite a
few fights against those two, actually. He glances over at the girl who's just
entered the scene. "...?"
>l callan
Callan
This girl, perhaps fifteen year of age, seems made entirely of straggly
brown hair, large violet eyes, and a variety of threadbare, baggy pants
and blouses. A plaid vest with a hole to one side hangs from her thin
frame, and an oversized, travelworn trenchcoat drags behind her as she
walks. Her feet are bare, although this doesn't seem to pose any
difficult to the girl. She makes a distinct *jingle* as she walks,
light and sound sparkling from the assortment of glass and plastic
beads that encircle her neck, wrists, and ankles.
Carrying:
>Callan beams cheerfully at Tasuki and Katt, and elaborates, "And chips!"
>Katt just... sweatdrops. So much for that little sparring match. "Come again?"
>Callan launches herself at Katt abruptly, arms outstretched.
>Tasuki doesn't offer a verbal reply like his feline friend. He just scratches
his head.
>Katt (OOC) Launches as in glomp? Or, 'tear her throat out'? O.o
>Callan says, "(OOC) Hard to tell, really. But she's grinning in a sort of daft,
friendly manner, so..."
>Katt's reflexes get the better of her as she eeps a little and backpedals as
best she can. Luckily for your cranium, she didn't go for her OTHER reflex of
whamming stuff into the pavement 'o.o'
>Callan screeches to a halt, looking mortally wounded. "Hug!" she demands a bit
petulantly.
>Katt blinkblinks. "Don't startle me like that!"
>Tasuki states the obvious, "I think she wants to hug you. o.o"
>Katt turns to Tasuki. "I KNOW that!"
>Callan sniffs. "Nevermind, then. *Be* that way..."
>Callan turns to Tasuki cheerfully. "Hug!"
>Katt pikus. "Well... um... if you really want a hug...?" 'O.o'
>Callan giggles, and turns to Katt triumphantly. n.n
>Katt just... gives Callan a hug, apparently. She looks real confused, though.
'O.o'
>Callan glomps Katt happily. "Mom!"
>Vincent arrives from the north.
>Tasuki slinks behind a lamp-post. Poor Katt. He doesn't want to see what's
going to happen now. o.o;
>Katt nearly chokes at THAT. "Hu-uh-wah!?"
>Callan beams at Katt, and repeats, "Mom. Okay?"
>Katt tries to be civil, really. "But... um... I'm not your mother..." '^^';
>Vincent is only walking through. In no real hurry to be anywhere; he slows a
little in order to glance at those that might be visibly present. Ah, Callan is
still well. Good, good. And since nothing -really- seems to be happening... (no
fights, no explosions...) he continues on.
>Callan exclaims, "But... watch!"
>Katt is being hugged by Callan and being called a mother. That's a MITE
unusual, Vinnie 'O.o'
>Vincent knows Callan's habits though. c.c
>Callan promptly melts. Or...wait. No. From the blackish puddle of goo, a feline
form rises briefly. The panther screams triumphantly, and then dissolves back
into the puddle. That takes a bit too much concentration, it seems.
>Vincent says, "(OOC) As long as neither you or her are trying to physically
kill one another, it's nothing -really- big. n.n;"
>Katt eeps again, but restrains her bashing instinct. 'O.O'
>Vincent says, "(OOC) Besides, who am I to get in the way of Callan's player's
fun? Tee hee. >:)"
>Well, she's seen worse, but Callan's really creepy
>Katt (OOC) has a vengeful streak, Vinnie n.n
>Vincent (OOC) does as well. ^_^ Buuuuut, have fun kiddies, I gotta go to bed
for work tomorrow. z.z
>Katt (OOC) See ya then c.c
>Callan (OOC) *^_^*;;;;
>Vincent leaves east.
>Callan repeats, her voice now a low, harsh hiss, "Mom...."
>Tasuki hops up into the night sky, and disappears...only to tap Katt on the
shoulder. "'scuse me, maam. n.n"
>Katt is getting really... really nervous now. She slings her head to face
Tasuki and snaps, "WHAT!?"
>Tasuki waves. n.n
>Katt twitches 'O.o' You aren't helping.
>Callan ripples forward, trying to curl around Katt's feet like some living
throw rug.
>Tasuki patpats her shoulder, then states, "You're ****in' freakin' out, y'know."
>Katt gets curled around. She's trying to to freak out, really. I mean, the girl
hasn't actually done anything HARMFUL yet, so...
>Callan purrs. Yes. The black goo on the ground is actually purring.
>Katt sweatdrops. "... Comfy?" The expression on her face is priceless, really,
a cute mixture of utter confusion and deep anxiety
>An eyestalk forms from the mass, rising up to blink at Katt. The stalk nods,
then withdraws back into the formless goo.
>Well, this isn't any worse then her dragon boyfriend, I guess. As long as it
doesn't want her to read it a bedtime story...
>Don't give me ideas...
>Tasuki hrms, and idly tries to scoop Katt up in his arms, to pull her out of
the goo. And away from that freaky eyestalk.
>Callan whimpers pathetically, but relinquishes possession of Katt's feet.
"Don't take her away," she pleads.
>Tasuki probably hasn't picken her up, even. That warrants a paddlin' in her
book, most likely. o.o
>Katt isn't about to move. She's quite scoopable, if you want (she's REAL tense,
though).
>Eden arrives from the south.
>Tasuki explains, while holding Katt in his arms like a piece of lumber. c.c;
"You're not her kid, kid." Wow, he's lecturing a puddle.
>Eden walks north along the street.
>Katt is being held above the puddle that is Callan, looking rather tense and/or
confused. And you better hope you watch where you're keeping your hands, Tasuki
'c.c'
>Callan protests, "But, the butterflies fly backwards in May! And the dead can't
die. And she is, so."
>Tasuki hrms, "Is it May already?! My birthday's passed...u.u"
>Katt (OOC) Y'know Callan, you should probably just get a random phrase
generator or something. Save you time c.c
>Callan (OOC) LOL. It's an idea.
>Katt squeaks, "You can put me down. I think."
>Callan ripples, her human form solidifying from the goo once more. She is now
seated cross-legged at the pavement, blinking mournfully up at Katt, who was
taken away from her. "Where's Derek?"
>Tasuki shrugs, "You make for a good curl. n.n" And he does curl-ups with the
prone Katt. Go figure. However, when Callan returns to normal, he sets Katt
down.
>Derek arrives from the south.
>Katt blinks as she's set down, and again at the question. "Who?"
>Katt (OOC) Wow, what timing c.c
>Chibi-Derek (OOC) tries sneaking by.. O_o;;;
>Eden says, "Derek is south of here on Odin Avenue." She doesn't see him coming
up behind.
>Callan says, "(OOC) It worked, though. n.n;"
>Chibi-Derek is looking at a book, actually..and walking northward.. 6_6
>Chibi-Derek . o O ( Lemme see..here's something called 'Excalibur'. That sounds
neat..darnit, doesn't this thing have an index? )
>Katt is rather glad she's not being glomped by a... gooey lunatic. Even if
she's a friendly gooey lunatic. Unfortunately (or furtunately), she doesn't
know who Derek is, so she can't help there.
>Chibi-Derek flips a few pages of the dictionary-thickness book..
>Callan gives Eden a wide-eyed glance. "Reeeally?"
>Eden nods. And she turns forward again, to continue walking north.
>Tasuki prods Katt's shoulder, and murmurs a suggestion to her, once he gets her
attention.
>Tasuki mumbles, "Let's get the hell outta here and quick. o.o" to Katt.
>Tasuki mumbles, "..... ..... the ..... outta here and ..... .. o ..
o" to Katt.
>You have her attention. She nods slowly, and waits for Tasuki to lead the
way.
>Callan nods again to the departing eden, and turns southward, passing right by
Derek on her search for... Derek.
>Chibi-Derek hmms? as he hears familiar voices and looks up. His pace slows a
little . o O ( Isn't that..? Hooboy.. )
>Eden leaves north.
>Callan sings quietly, horribly off-key, o/~Agnus Dei qui tollis peccata
mundiiiiii...o/~
>Callan leaves south.
>Hmm. Looks like a quick escape won't be necessary. Katt does manage to blurt
out, "What the HELL was THAT!?", though.
>Chibi-Derek side-glances at Callan as she walks by, standing as still as he can
>_>
>Tasuki offers to take you around by the hand. ("Hopon Tasuki" to accept.)
>Chibi-Derek . o O ( I'd better get moving.. )
>Derek leaves north.
>You take Tasuki's hand firmly in yours.
>Katt would normally be annoyed or insulted or something, but that isn't exactly
your average little diversion '>.<'
>Cait_Sith arrives from the south.
>Cait_Sith arrives, with Hino_Rei and Sailor_Pluto following behind.
>Cait Sith and his Mog bound by, leading two girls...
>Rei nods as they pass
>Katt (OOC) There's a group I'd never thought I'd see
>Cait Sith OOC woohoos! =^^= v
>Rei (OOC) ^_^;
>Sailor Pluto (OOC) smiles. *^_^*
>Katt is apparently standing near Tasuki, looking rather disturbed and confused
about... something '>.<'
>Cait_Sith leaves north.
>Cait_Sith leaves, with Hino_Rei and Sailor_Pluto following behind him.
>Tasuki leaves north.
>Tasuki takes you along with him, holding your hand.
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.
[Exits : (N)orth, Tifa's Seventh Heaven (7), (T)ransit Station, Path (D)own
to the Gorge, Suspension (B)ridge, and (S)outh ]
[Players : Tasuki, and Motoroid Red(Pup) ]
[Sleepers: Hammer ]
[Things : None ]
Tasuki brings Katt with him, holding hands.
Katt would oblige you NOT to mention that '-.-';
>Tasuki (OOC) snickers;p
>Tasuki asks, "Which way to where you live?"
>Katt rubs the bridge of her nose. "Actually... uh... I'm staying in the park."
'^^'; . o O ( That sounded great. You're on a roll tonight, Katt '>.<' )
>Tasuki says, "You stay in the park?" He ponders for a second, "I didn't even
know there was a park here. o.o" He looks around, "Well, I'm sure there's
~some~ place around here more comfy than the park to stay at. o.o Like a cave.
Or something."
>Derek comes out of the 7th Heaven Bar.
>Katt hmmphs, finally recovering her impressive ego. "I... can walk myself home.
If you don't mind..." . o O ( And I already tried the cave, before I ran into
Ryu '>.<' )
>Tasuki says, "Heh, I was hoping you could offer me a roof over my head to stay
the night, actually. I kinda need a good place to rest."
>Tasuki says, "The side walk in front of the cafe doesn't cut it anymore..."
>Katt sweatdrops. "Sorry, tent's only big enough for one." '-.-';
>Tasuki shrugs, smirking a bit to himself, "Okay..."
>Derek leaves south.
>Katt pushes away from Tasuki. With a hmmph, and a smirk, she says, "And I still
have to finish you off, you know."
>Tasuki says, "Next time, I'm using my weapon. n.n You got to use yours." He
folds his arms, letting the thought sink in. c.c
>Katt hmmphs. "We'll see about that. Afraid you can't take me by yourself, hmm?"
Before you have a chance to give any sort of coherent reply, she dashes off.
Simply infuriating...
>s
You depart to the south.
