Re: Port Vega: The Academy of the Extraordinarily Gifted (Gen, NPCs, open)
(Gen) "I'm not exactly lost," Gen began.? "I mean, I'd heard about this place, so I kind of know where I am.? And I do have some abilities.? Quite a few, actually," he added with a self-conscious snicker as he willed the skin of his hands and feet back to normal.? "But I'm not exactly a mutant either.? So I'm not sure if I really belong here.? Or anywhere, really."? He shrugged.? "It's kind of a long story." ? "I could use something to eat though," he went on, looking hopeful.? "I have money.? I can pay," the androgyne added, pulling a wad of bills out of his pocket. A wad of what looked like hundred-dollar bills.? "I've tried getting food in a few places but they always look at me funny and then call the police." He chewed on his lip anxiously.? "You aren't going to do that, are you?" (NPC Liza) Liza listened to him and then when he pulled out the money she held up her hand, "that won't be necessary. You are welcome to come and get something to eat. If you need a bed for the night or would like a shower you are welcome to that as well." Tag: Gen? |

Re: A Pirates Life (Khadashee and Draven)
Draven)
Draven realized that they were talking about the same thing and not him leaving her here while he went off to sail the world. Not like Bridget and her mother. "Ah, yes, I understand now. Forgive me for not following. Yes, comforts for the cabin and our little one. As for a favorite meal, never really thought about it before." He paused as he thought about it, then something his mother used to make, "Shepard's pie. My mother used to make it for me when I was a little boy." ?
Khadashee.? ¡°No harm. I wasn¡¯t trying to upset you, really I wasn¡¯t.¡± She said taking and squeezing his hand. ¡°Now¡ Shepherds pie you say. Well I don¡¯t know exactly what that is. But if you give me a recipe or teach me how to make it, I will definitely try to make it for you. Does that sound like something you¡¯d like.¡± |

Re: Raconteur City: The Hunted (Hollywood/Diego/Ariein, open)
Diego)
Diego heard the shots and knew that she was packing for werewolves. He stepped back as the bullets sailed past him. He had to rethink and quickly. Looking around he spotted the stairwell door. Deciding that remaining he was, wasn't the best laid plan he made his way inside the building. It was a corridor on the other side and the building had already been evacuated. It was one of the Prince's companies. He stopped and placed his ear against the door to listen for the shooter. Which way was she going to go, up or down? ?
(Hollywood)
"Depends on the shooter." Hollywood made her way to the elevator and once all were inside pressed the button. The car dropped quickly, much faster than a normal elevator would. Once on the ground floor, they made their way to the other building, all on alert. Hollywood looking straight ahead, pistols in both hands as her guards constantly scanned following behind her. They were a well trained unit and moved with better?precision?than most military units. Ariein ¡°Got it.¡± He said as he followed her to the unit. He smirked. ¡° That¡¯s a helluva whole Lotta fire power for one person. Not to tell you how to run your business, but Don¡¯t you think your a military style unit is overkill for what appears to be one person?¡± |

Re: Raconteur City: Back to the Beginning: Scarlett/Tempest
Scarlett
?
The redhead shook her head, "An actual function, no. I've met a couple of members of the vampire council, however. Lord Alexander Moldoveanu once briefed me for a mission, I met with him several times before and after the operation...this was probably 30 years ago, during World War 2. The other was Lady Hayami Tanaka, probably around 1910. I was assigned as her bodyguard for six months. Those are the only ones."
Tempest ¡° I see,¡± Tempest said impressed. She had no idea that Scarlett had even ever been in the presence of the council. But to learn that not Only has she been briefed for Mission by one but I work closely with another was an interesting tidbit of information. ¡° so you actually had some dealing with some pretty high ranking council officials.

Re: Raconteur City: Back to Business (Colin, Victoria)
(Tori) Victoria didn¡¯t say anything to her brother's shrugged assumption. She simply slipped on a robe as the girl was getting dress and waited at the car she was escorted to without a words, she walked up to the woman and snapped the girl's neck. ?She stepped over the girl just as Franklin got out the car to put her body in the trunk.?Victoria moved back to the back where her brother was and said ¡°Your getting soft in your old age brother dear,¡± she said walking back inside the house. Moving to go get a drink. (Colin) "Old, old, who you calling old. And I was going to find her later, have drink or two and then finish her off. That was a waste of a perfectly good meal."

Re: Port Vega: The Academy of the Extraordinarily Gifted (Gen, NPCs, open)
(Gen) Gen jumped slightly when the stranger suddenly appeared from out of the shadows.? He fidgeted self-consciously with the bottle still in his hand, then carefully laid it down behind himself on the sidewalk.? "It's kind of late to be knocking," he said, glancing up at the night sky above them. "Isn't it?" ? The androgyne was distracted by the stranger's hair and eyes that seemed to change.? He was starting to wonder if she was a mutant, possibly the kind the Academy was meant for, but then the changing stopped just as suddenly as it had begun.?? ? "Me?" Gen said, still feeling more than a bit awkward after having been caught in the act.? "I... I'm nobody.? Nobody at all." He glanced around the empty street.? "M-maybe I should just go," he murmured.? "Sorry for... you know."

Re: Port Vega: The Academy of the Extraordinarily Gifted (Mia, Del, Roddy, open)
(Roddy) Roddy shook his head.? "No, I _want_ to show them.? They need to know what they're taking on." His expression grew darker as he added "And that I'm not someone anyone can just fuck with. They need to know that too."? He pondered Misty's suggestion for a nickname.? "Sounds like something you'd see in a comic book, actually," he snickered.? "I'm not going to have to wear some spandex body-suit with lightning bolts drawn all over it, am I?" ? He looked the dorm room over, then shrugged.? "It'll do.? I don't need much.? I just wish I didn't have to share it with someone."? Looking back to Misty, he asked "So, this Donny guy.? What's he like?? And what's his thing?? And what's he go by when he isn't going by Donny?" He raised an inquiring eyebrow.? "Anything interesting?" (Misty)
"Only if you want to," Misty said in response to the spandex body suit. "Well, all new students share a room for a little while. Some decide they like their roommates and they remain so. Others, like their own space. There are not a lot of rooms so it works out. As for Donny, I will let him answer your questions." Misty walked over to the intercom system next to the door. "Here is a list of all the places you might need to contact...in a hurry. Otherwise you are welcome to simply wander the school and take a look around. Announcements are also made through here for important stuff that Ms. Mia and Ms. Del feels needs to be told. And," Misty reached into her pocket and pulled out a card. "This is my rooms number if you want to get a hold of me." ? (Del) "Funding isn't the problem.? It's getting the permits, lining up contractors, getting inspections done and all that fun stuff that _you_ don't like to deal with," Del teased, joining Mia at the window.? "Besides, you did say the priority was to get the living areas up and ready so we could take the kids in.? Which is what we did." ? She watched Donny working out on the field.? "Looks nice enough," she mused.? "Maybe we could use him in some fund-raising materials.? Or recruiting ads." She then sighed and leaned against her lover.? "Or are we still being discreet and low-profile about everything?" (Mia) Mia listened to Del and she knew all that her love had said was true. Getting the main hall and living areas done was priority. They wouldn't have been able to take in mutants otherwise. "I think we need to start coming out into the light more. After all, mutants are a part of everyday life and whether the general populace believes it or not, they are all around them. Not so sure about recruiting ads, but fund-raising materials might work." She turned around and leaned against the windowsill. "Something to get other mutant's attention to help bring in funds and more support. Have to find some normals who sympathize?with the mutants to help as well." Tag: Roddy, Del

Re: Raconteur City: Reunited? (Hollywood,/Diego/Ariein, open)
Hollywood)
As Hollywood headed for the door she gave Ari a shrug, "part of being a prince. Someone is always trying to kill you. Power for themselves, a hit, there are many number of reasons. The only way to know for sure is to catch the shooter and hope they talk...willingly." She opened the door to find several of her guards in the hall waiting to follow her lead. ?
(Diego)
Diego made it to the roof and sniffed the area. He picked up on a fresh scent and looked in the direction of the trail. She just caught the swish of a long coat as it went around the corner of the door leading to the stairs inside. With a howl he ran to the door, swung it opened to find himself face to face with a gun, then a bullet hitting him. The shooter apparently?wasn't expecting a werewolf, for it was a normal caliber and simply hit it's target, but otherwise did nothing else.?He watched as the shooter turned to run down the stairs, he leapt over the side and landed on the stairs below them waiting for them to come down to the level he was at.

Scarlett moaned softly as Tempest touched her womanhood and slowly ground her hand against her core. She kissed Tempest back and as they parted, she smiled, "I will do whatever I can to please you."
The redhead wasn't particularly pleased with the way this sounded. Important members of the vampire nation would be there tonight,?and she would be putting on a show for them...her...a protector of the vampire nation, performing as some sort of entertainment for the very people she was sworn to protect and serve. But she needed this...needed to impress Tempest in order to get to Wolfram. She needed to finish taking her revenge and putting an end to the vampire who turned her and killed the man she loved.
So, she would endure.
"When do we begin?"

Re: Elusive Capture: Beaches. Andrew/Evone¡¯
Andrew) ? The days passed.? Andrew let the strange ship continue to shadow them for a few days, but then made a sharp course change one night and used the Elusive's greater speed to put more distance between them.? He continued on that course for the next two days before making another correction to put the ship back on course for their original destination, but this time using all of his skill to keep the ship constantly moving at a speed he knew to be greater than the other ship's.? His tactic seemed to work for the other ship failed to reappear on their horizon.? Still, he remained cautious and always had one of the crew keeping watch at all times ? The nights were the only time he would relax, when he and Evone' could be alone together.? During the day, he did his best to let her have the freedom of the ship and the opportunity to learn some of the basic shipboard skills from the different crewmen he tasked with teaching her.? But nighttime was their quiet time together. ? "With luck," he said to her one night after their evening meal, "we might be sighting some islands off the coast of Brittany soon.? From there, it'll only be a few days to the nearest port."? He smiled a little, taking her hand.? "We've been lucky with the weather.? A little more luck and we'll be able to take you to your father.? I... I hope we'll find him in good health." ?- Evone' As she stood at the side rail looking out at the beautiful night sky.
