Epic M&M: Issue 3 (IC)

[Mimic]

"Who wants to stay indoors and watch movies on beautiful day like today." Michelle thinks as she wanders back to her room.

"Aris, record and send this vid-com to both Tara and Raisa. Hey guys, rise and shine, I was wondering if you wanted to do some light shopping today? If you want to meet me in the mess hall, later. Oh yea, see if you can find anyone else who wants to come along"

Once she is finished with the message, Michelle will head towards the mess hall to get some breakfast. She will wait a couple of hours, if no one shows up, she will go alone.

Raisa sits in the chair from her desk, spinning around with her head tilted back. She considers the invitation from Thunder. Sounds like it would be fun, but best get everything else sorted out before things start getting nuts tomorrow. "ARIS, reply to Thunder that I will regretably be unable to attend." She'd always wanted to say that.

She stops her spinning and grabs a music disk from next to the stereo and her dufflebag that carries her dance gear. With her schedule as hectic as it was, plus now being shipped off grounds for further training, she probably wasn't going to get many chances to work on her dancing. She stops once more infront of the ARIS screen. "ARIS, also send a message to Michelle Sanches and Raul Mendez asking them to join me in the gym at their convinience. I'll be there most of the day should anyone ask."

Making sure the door is locked behind her, Raisa will head toward the gym.

 

[buzzard]

Actually, you're in luck! Just outside the grounds is a large wooded area that is part of the national Nature Reclamation Project. It has a trail system, and from the tracks you see, has a good deal of wildlife activity.

You are tracking down some antelope when you hear a scream in the distance.

"Hey Pop, did you hear that? Yeah, I guess I better check it out." John says as he begins to move rapidly in the direction the scream seems to have come from.

Johan starts duplicating, producing a total of 3 of himself.
"I believe I need to find a way for you stay around while I am sleeping, it would save me very much time if I could just dismiss you when I was done sleeping."

 

[Mule]

I have an extra ticket for the 3PM show, then I'm going to a LAN party.

Randall types a reply:

Sure I'd like to come. Where would I meet you? I have an invite to a barbeque tonight as well, if you want to come with me to that afterwards. I'm not worried about Matt, so long as he doesn't pee on me.

Randall will then head out to get some breakfast.

"Yes, yes I did," X12 says, still typing his message to Empath. "I helped Monica put away the equipment from the game afterwards. She's very... physical and intimately aggressive; she made me slightly uncomfortable, but I think she's just starved for attention. She did however ask me to speak with the team members about giving her a chance to join EPIC Team B -- if her athletic skills are any indicator, she may make an excellent addition to the team."

"Oh great, so she got her claws into you too. She's just like Cosmo you know; totally obsessed with herself and her needs. She's no team player. I can just guess how she convinced you to try to get her on the team," she says with some obvious disgust.

"I'm sorry, X12," ARIS says. "Did you wish me to add this conversation to your e-mail to Empath?"

OOC: THERE IS NO KEYBOARD. Verbal command interface.

"ARIS, send a reply to this email. I would be very happy to attend this. Do I need to bring anything?" Vince will then browse quickly through Aris's menus before heading out to get some breakfast.

"According to my database, Vincent, you are not required to bring anything. Do you still want me to add that queery to your e-mail?"

"Aris, record and send this vid-com to both Tara and Raisa. Hey guys, rise and shine, I was wondering if you wanted to do some light shopping today? If you want to meet me in the mess hall, later. Oh yea, see if you can find anyone else who wants to come along"

Once she is finished with the message, Michelle will head towards the mess hall to get some breakfast. She will wait a couple of hours, if no one shows up, she will go alone.

"Message sent, Michelle. Shall I inform Tara and Raisa where you are when they receive the message?"

Raisa sits in the chair from her desk, spinning around with her head tilted back. She considers the invitation from Thunder. Sounds like it would be fun, but best get everything else sorted out before things start getting nuts tomorrow. "ARIS, reply to Thunder that I will regretably be unable to attend." She'd always wanted to say that.

She stops once more infront of the ARIS screen. "ARIS, also send a message to Michelle Sanches and Raul Mendez asking them to join me in the gym at their convinience. I'll be there most of the day should anyone ask."

"Messages sent, Raisa. Enjoy your dancing," ARIS replies, eerily guessing what you were going to do.

"Hey Pop, did you hear that? Yeah, I guess I better check it out." John says as he begins to move rapidly in the direction the scream seems to have come from.

"It sure aint a deer, boy. I'm right behind you," your dad replies.

You move quickly through the underbrush until you come to a small clearing just off the main path through the trees. In it, six rather nasty looking men have cornered two women who look like mother and daughter. Their intentions are plain on their faces. Two of the thugs have long knives and you see a gun tucked into the front of the pants of another.

"I'll take the two on the left, you take the other four," your father says.

Initiatives: Thug1 22, Dad 17, Straightjacket 11, Thug 2-6 8

One thug sees you coming. He tosses the girl he was holding over to another thug and throws his hand at you and your father. A smokey cloud sprays out, engulfing you. You cough and feel very lethargic.

Thug hits with a 19. Will save of 13 fails. You are slowed and limited to a 1/2 action per round, suffering a -2 to attacks.

Johan starts duplicating, producing a total of 3 of himself.
"I believe I need to find a way for you stay around while I am sleeping, it would save me very much time if I could just dismiss you when I was done sleeping."

"I believe if that were to happen, there would be a term for us. Slaves," on of you replies candidly.

"Since we enjoy working on projects like this, so do you, so no getting lazy on us," the other says.

"I've heard of talking to yourself, but this is hilarious," Sanchez says as she starts loading the smaller pieces of metal into the furnace.

Sure I'd like to come. Where would I meet you? I have an invite to a barbeque tonight as well, if you want to come with me to that afterwards. I'm not worried about Matt, so long as he doesn't pee on me.

Loki

Randall will then head out to get some breakfast.

A message is waiting for you when you return. "Just catch a cab to Yuk Yuk's in the Rothermine district. I'll meet you at the Starbucks on the corner there at 2:30 this afternoon. The show should last for a few hours, then the LAN party starts at 6:00. You really should come. You can always go to another barbeque! Who knows when you're going to get another chance at this sort of thing, mister super hero. Gotta jet! See you later!

Monica

On that, Kevin get out of the room. He walk down to the kitchen where he take an apple, and than walk out of the Institute building. He sits under a tree, and let his thought wander on the events of the lasts days.

You eat an apple, you ponder events, and nothing bothers you until the explosions start. You hear them to your right and look over as an immense flaming dragon appears on the track! It lets out a bellow of flame and stalks towards the outer fence of the compound.

"I'm sorry, X12," ARIS says. "Did you wish me to add this conversation to your e-mail to Empath?"

"No, ARIS, I'll complete that Email later, thank you," X12 says.

"To be frank, yes, she did attempt to seduce me, but that's not why I'm willing to help her. Physical contact of that nature is just... too much to consider, Anna -- soccer was fun, but I've never really known anything else but fear of physical contact, and sexual congress literally terrifies me.

"I assume that she just thinks she has to use her body to get what she wants, probably because she's never known anything else... which is sad, because I'll wager that if she was able to get into this academy, then she has aptitudes in other departments. I'm a firm believer in the idea that everyone deserves a chance, Anna. She may prove me wrong, but I'm willing to give her the chance to prove me wrong."

"Message sent, Michelle. Shall I inform Tara and Raisa where you are when they receive the message?"

Yes please.

 

[Mule]

A message is waiting for you when you return.

Reply:

Ok, I will meet you there.

Randall heads out of his room to find Vince. He will fill Vince in on the emails, and challenge him to some video games for a warm-up. He still hasn't decided whether he wants to go to the LAN party or the barbeque though.

"In Russia, we have a name for people like her. Неряха. You should ignore her. She's not going to fit well on any team that she's not the center of attention on," Anna says, still sounding disgusted.

"I'm going for breakfast," she says, hanging up.

In the Mess Hall
The mess hall is filling up fast. The breakfast buffet is filled with scrumptious goodness as usual. Cosmo is already here, and is arguing with Carl over whether to watch the Football game or the American Football Pre-game. Carl has the remote, and doesn't look willing to let it go.

Dara and Monica are sitting talking about something. Monica touches Dara's hand and the girl blushes and shakes her head. Dara is wearing her own clothes, a pair of jeans and a tight t-shirt, and has one of Titan's capes draped about her.

"My cape," you hear Dara say in your head. Monica grins and laughs.

Anna and Tara are by the breakfast bar, finishing getting their food, and wheel over to the TV, working quickly to liberate the remote from Carl through devious means; tickling. The true football game quickly appears on the TV.

"Hey, good stuff," Titan says as he comes in. "France versus Spain. Good choice!"

"Oh cripes," Carl grumbles. "I'm going to the gym. Soccer is boring."

Y'all can come in as you like.
