Superheroes of the Trust Game Thread

[Raylis]

Spirit shrugs.
She turns to the quiet girl in black.

" Do you talk, are you taking notes, or do you simply think that not participating in the conversation makes for a successful 'strong/silent' routine? Tell us about yourself."

"When necessary" she says plainly, her voice not much louder then a whisper.

 

[James Heard]

Jessica rolls her eyes.

Great. Emo Lass.

 

[Fenris2]

Under the mask, Thessaly nods at Star. "Thanks."
She cracks a smile. "And don't worry, no beheading chickens or dancing around naked. I'm not out to challenge sensibilities quite -that- much."

Angel chimes in with a laugh, "Actually I know.. (sad look) make that knew quite a few wizards and witches back when. Some good. Some dastardly (frown). But running around. . . Um. Skyclad they call it now??? could actually be quite fun and refreshing. Sad to think there is still a hang up on that."

 

[Shayuri]

Viridian shrugs.

"It has its place. It's useful for invoking some presences, or for people who need the little extra boost you get from not having anything between you and your sources. Hasn't been an issue for me yet, and it's a good idea to fit in when you can. Makes things easier in the long run."

She gazes piercingly at Joseph.

"You must be older than you look."

(as he's immune to illusion, Joseph sees not Viridian, but Thessaly. A woman in her early twenties, quite pretty, with the aforementioned short, kind of messy pink/brown hair, a piercing in her left eyebrow, dressed in a white t shirt, a leather jacket, and a pair of baggy drawstringed flannel pants that look more like pajamas than streetwear.)

 

[Elric]

He approaches the angel and the wrestler with some trepidation. "My name is Salix," he says as he nears the pair, in a soft and airy voice that does not seem fitting for a seven-foot-tall tree creature. "Were you also summoned here?"

Nitro figures out how he's going to remember his social security number- call his girlfriend Melina, who is also his agent! He dials her on his cell phone and she remembers his Social Security number! He's lucky that she's so smart and tells her as much. She has to go- she's meeting Paris Hilton at the club soon. OK.

Then he sees the walking tree. "My name is Salix. Were you also summoned here?" it asks. Make that a walking, talking tree. Still not much competition for the ladies! Nitro recognizes this thing!

"Indeed! You're the guy from Lord of the Rings, right? Except I thought you were taller- I guess those little creatures (the word is on the tip of his tongue) were really quite small after all. There are a bunch of people already in the van- that keypad magically lets you in- at least, that's what it looks like to me."

 

[Fenris2]

Viridian shrugs.

"It has its place. It's useful for invoking some presences, or for people who need the little extra boost you get from not having anything between you and your sources. Hasn't been an issue for me yet, and it's a good idea to fit in when you can. Makes things easier in the long run."

She gazes piercingly at Joseph.

"You must be older than you look."

Angel answers, "Lets just say there might be difficulty trying to put all the candles on my birthday cake. I hear us old folks get cranky when we starting thinking about it too much though *laugh*"

Then he looks out a window and tries to roll/power it down. Assuming he can he says, "Nitro and Salix why not come on inside?"

 

[Blind Azathoth]

"Fortunately for you," Salix says to Angel, before he vanishes into the van, "my body has a composition unique even among plant organisms that allows it to synthesize nourishment from even minor exposure to solar radiation, so that I do not require sustenance beyond sunlight, not even water." Salix's face twists itself into a strange shape perhaps meant to be a smile. "All the more pizza for you."

After he is left alone with Nitro, Salix nods. "Oh, I was one of them, yes. It was all done with camera trickery, you see, angles and perspective. I was among those who tore the dam down—the one on the far right. Look for me next time you watch the second film..." He nods to the keypad. "Shall we join the others? I am anxious to meet everyone."

And, assuming Angel does manage to roll down the window, Salix gestures to the wrassler beside him. "I thought it polite to wait for Mr. Nitro to enter first, as he arrived before me."

 

[Elric]

And, assuming Angel does manage to roll down the window, Salix gestures to the wrassler beside him. "I thought it polite to wait for Mr. Nitro to enter first, as he arrived before me."

"Thanks, Salix. Let me enter this code before I forget." Nitro enters the code and is sucked into the vehicle.

"Wow, nice car!" he exclaims, as he briefly looks at the goods in one of the boxes.

Seeing that no one is driving, he says "Well, I guess I can drive. I bet this thing handles like a charm." Nitro sits down in the driver's seat.

Then he turns around. "Oh, introductions. I'm Johnny Nitro. You've probably seen me on TV. Strong, tough, incredibly good-looking. And watch out for my uncontrollable flaming dragon punch" (he winks)

 

[Shayuri]

Thessaly keeps staring at Joseph for a moment, then shrugs and says to Johnny, "Are you sure we need a driver? Everything's been pretty automated up to now."

 

[James Heard]

" Considering how much everything else has cost so far I'm not going to be surprised if The Man In The Iron Mask doesn't spring for a battleship towed by helicopters to pick us up, or float us up to outer space to visit his masculinely shaped secret space ship."
