Kathi listened to the explanation as best as she could, but this kind of stuff wasn't really her forte. She was the one inside making the machines work, not the one with an idea on how the piloting and navigation portion of it went. But it was nearing the end of the meeting, and Kathi decided she was going to bow out early. If they were going to do this, that meant they were going to need extra precautions and she was going to need to get started right away. She stretched a little as she walked towards engineering and got started working on the robots. As she worked, she realized the higher activation of the shields had to be put on manually and Kathi took a deep breath and backed up saying, "You're kidding me. Who designed this ship?" she would have gotten one of the robots to do it, had the robot with the current issues they were working on not been the one in charge of that. She just didn't realize the shields were specifically tied to that. Kathi pressed a button before she started suiting up for extraction and asked, "Computer, what is our current cruising speed at?" "Our current cruising speed is 19.98 parsecs per hour." "Fantastic... inform the bridge not to up the speed, as a worker is outside of the ship." this wasn't anything against regulation, and certainly not the fastest Kathi had been outside in. Kathi put on the helmet and said, "If danger is alerted tell them to use a red alert and I will come inside as fast as is possible. Tell them not to stop immediately if an obstacle occurs. They'll lose me." The computer beeped in approval and Kathi motioned for two of the other engineers to be on standby in case something happened. Then Kathi put herself into the airlock and engaged oxygen and other necessary procedures before turning on the airlock and then releasing her. She held onto the grips on the ship and began to make a climb to the panel she needed. She made sure one of the bots was on standby for emergency retrieval of her and once she was at the panel, she took a minute to detail the log so others knew. She made a quick joke about how she 'wished they'd stayed docked so she could have done this with less danger' as she began activation. At one point she said, "Someone please ask the Captain if there were any other emergency preparations that needed to be taken while I am outside and at the panel." Jael almost wished he was doing something interesting like being at a meeting about the next course of action. Instead, he was doing translation. Dania had messaged him previously about her suggestion about the next course of action so he made sure to get himself suited up for just in case they ran into the prominent aliens of the sector. He also wanted to finish up a few more documents that needed translating before anything intense was going on. He read over the documents a few times and yawned a little because he was getting tired and bored. Mostly bored. Jael finished up one document and sent it on over to Dania and he decided to take a little break and lean back into his office chair. He had a few books in his office, and one he was reading was this very old book in an English he could barely understand. The title was Beowulf, at least he thought. He didn't know if it translated into anything grander and he didn't care too much to find out. He was slowly reading it, and it was an untranslated version, so this published version dated back several millennia. Well, it was probably a republishing. He didn't care. It wasn't like he had anyone he could chat with anyway. He figured maybe he'd get a markup of the meeting going on soon and he'd at least know what was going on with that. Until then he was content, and trying to entertain himself before getting back to the grueling work. April was half awake and near closing her eyes before her baby was crying again. She snapped awake and got out of her chair to walk over to the crib and pick up Keith. She held him up and cuddled him saying, "Shh shh shh, baby. It's okay, mommy's here." she always did that just in case he was startled. But then she immediately checked to see if he was hungry or something else. It was something else, turned out she needed to change their diaper and she grumbled a little, but quickly moved to a place to change him up. Little Keith wasn't that old yet, two months to be exact. So April was constantly up and worried about him. She was worried the smallest thing might make the little baby get sick or get hurt, so she was very rarely leaving the room. That caused some problems, but people were generally accommodating. Some people brought food, some people brought comfort. Most people came for Keith though. She didn't mind, but she had a strict policy that everyone could only hold him or snuggle with him after they had washed their hands and face. A little paranoid, she knew, but the sink was right at the front anyway so it wasn't super inconvenient. April finished cleaning up Keith and putting him into a new little onesie. It was a little too cold in space for her to let him just wear a diaper only, but sometimes when they docked she let him. Like earlier. Though the entire time she was kind of just sitting at the door and glaring, just in case any aliens went hostile and attacked them. It wouldn't be the first time. She knew there was a meeting today in regards to navigation, but she didn't go. She was on leave anyway, and if they needed to ask important questions they were welcome to invade and she was happy to help, but the baby was her first priority now. More so than herself.
Kaida felt the cloak drop on her head, and she pulled it off of it and held it in her arms for a moment. Kaida watched Karina walk away and, she knew she probably wasn't going to reply, but she shouted anyway, "We'll see you later!" she knew others probably didn't wanna see her extensively, but Kaida just wanted to wish luck and hope at the very least Karina made it through all of this. Kaida went to fold the cloak to put it back in her bag. She didn't feel the recorder right then, so it ended up mixed in with everything. But Kaida might discover it later if she needed to bring it out again. Kaida then sealed the bag and took a deep breath saying, "I'll do my best. And hope that with all we've done so far, I've improved on those things I've faltered..." she punched her gloved hand into her bare hand, which probably felt less comfortable than if she did it the other way around and said, "Lets beat this Reaper's Game and become keyblade masters then!"
There are a total of 260 shadow heartless. Each shadow heartless takes 5BP to hit. Each BP is worth 20 words. You have a total of 20 BP. Round 2 starts now. Round 3 begins in 2 days or until all players have taken their turns. The heartless in the front lines swarm together and charge at the group. But the swarm looks like it glitches the tiniest bit and they all sort of fall apart and rain down on people. At least five people were unable to dodge, but they were at least able to stand up afterwards. After the glitch happened, Ria took 10 more shadows from the attack group to defend them. Kara: 20/20 HP Chrys: 20/20 HP Chloe: 15/20 HP [hit] Chrono: 15/20 HP [hit] Xen: 20/20 HP Daeni: 15/20 HP [hit] Alder: 15/20 HP [hit] Relli: 20/20 HP Marley: 15/20 HP [hit] Cerdic: 20/20 HP
that was the one people voted. I was rooting for teal
-sweats-
sup mok
true
SHE LIED
She promised me she wouldn't spend any more money on Jewels.
Yes son. But never call me daddy in public again.
Ria didn't really listen to any of the banter that had headed their way. They were so all over the place it was hard to keep track, so when they were ready they just waved their arm and the shadows charged in the front group. A secondary group appeared and surrounded Ria like they were protecting them. There are a total of 300 shadow heartless. Each shadow heartless takes 5BP to hit. Each BP is worth 20 words. You have a total of 20 BP. Round 1 starts now. Round 2 begins in 2 days or until all players have taken their turns. Kara: 20/20 HP Chrys: 20/20 HP Chloe: 20/20 HP Chrono: 20/20 HP Xen: 20/20 HP Daeni: 20/20 HP Alder: 20/20 HP Relli: 20/20 HP Marley: 20/20 HP Cerdic: 20/20 HP The shadows only have a slashing type attack, and are relatively easy to dodge. But if multiple jump out at once, it's a little bit hard.
Lyphos listened to Tharados explain what he wanted from him with curiosity. When he mentioned how he basically wanted the eldest one to be the queen, Lyphos gripped the arm of the chair a bit in anger, and did his best to show it on his face. Truthfully, he just wanted to kill all three. He wanted them all to brutally murdered. But Tharados chose one of the brats as his idea queen. She would in all respect then be given a place above Lyphos, no matter how much he may break her mind into being head over heals in love with Tharados, that thought would still linger. But Lyphos knew he couldn't say anything about that, no matter how much he hated the brat, he couldn't go against Tharados. If anything, this meant he was probably going to torture the younger of the two more. Which was a shame, because the one he really wanted to hear the screams of was the older girl. Lyphos closed out those thoughts he bowed his head and said, "I would be honored, sir."
I'LL BACK IT
When the fire was shot, Ria was expecting it to stay in the darkness, but they severely miscalculated. It hit them and they flew back a few feet. They got up off the ground slowly saying, "Fine, you wanna fight that badly, huh? We could have maybe talked this out, settled down and have a few drinks but no. Always keeping info to yourself." they reached out towards them as their hand glowed brightly, but it flicked and broke, as if it wasn't working properly, "This time I get to keep stuff from you. And I can knock your sorry teeth in for thinking less of me." the light suddenly stopped shining and it turned into a keyblade, but the keyblade looked wrong. It was broken, and looked like it'd barely function as anything. They pointed it towards them and said, "I'm more powerful than all of you, now. That's an advantage I'll take!" and the darkness dropped suddenly to the ground, and shadows began to appear out of them, there were at least a hundred of them, possibly more. But they were in ready position, they weren't going to strike until Ria commanded them to do so.
Sure, son.
֎ Name: April Baxter ֎ Age: 39 ֎Appearance: here ֎Rank: Lieutenant (On Leave) ֎Job: Navigator/Cartographer (Or I guess Astrometrics if you're Arch but -shrugs- ) ֎Weapon: N/A, usually just a standard phaser ֎Personality: Responsible, Skeptical, Paranoid ֎ Bio: April was kind of a goody two shoes for the most of her early life, following orders to a t in order to perfect her chosen job as navigator. When she hit an old enough age, she was a little less strict, and became even less so when she started dating and married a man named Ron. However, as she was pregnant with her first kid, her husband was killed in the line of duty. Since then, she's been a pretty big shut in. Even after she had the baby and was told she was able to come back to the line of duty, she was worried that at any moment something could go seriously wrong and that she'd die, or she'd lose her little boy. Ever since then she's been rather difficult to open up to people about it, and very rarely leaves the room. ֎Relations: Friends with Dania. Pleasantly annoyed by Jael. Very good friends with Garrett (they also had a thing when they were younger). Note: Her little baby is a boy, his name is Keith. At this point in the RP he is two months old.
Ria was going to open their mouth to reply but it went in so many different directions and finally they just said, "Ah, shut it, Cerdic. It's not that I don't remember your name, it's just you aren't relevant to my point. Keep on making yourself the center of attention though, I'm sure that'd go fabulously. Also." The hooded figure walked a bit closer to the group and said, "It seems you all have forgotten huh? Everything that happened. That's wonderful! It makes things so much easier for me." They walked over and placed a hand on Chloe's shoulder and asked, "How does it feel, having hollow heads? Cause it sounds like a luxury to me." they walked away from Chloe and began walking closer towards the cave and said, "After all, when my task is complete, you can use it as an alibi as to why all of you failed." They stopped and pointed to the ground and the darkness thickened as it circled around the group, "I don't want you guys running away from my little cage. But maybe I'll let some of you go if you do me a favor. Hey, your highness. Get your dog to talk. He knows something I need to know. What exactly does the extractor do?"
I guess you could say your vision was clouded. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Lyphos enjoyed her seeming naivete and reached out and took her hand and pulled her closer as he began walking, "I can find a way to make you fly one last time..." he used a tempting smile and his power and started walking, "Just come along with me, and I'm sure you'll get that joy of flying. Possibly more, if you're willing to open yourself up to new possibilities... but hm..." he let go of her hand and started walking away from her as he said, "I don't think you want it enough. I think you're too weak to be a fighter... maybe I should just hand you off to the next person." Lyphos continued walking away as he added, "Unless you wanna prove me wrong..." he wanted her to follow. Wanted her to basically beg for it. He didn't even say how he was going to get her to fly, he was still gonna hold up on his end. But he wanted her to literally beg for it, it would make it all the more fun later.
The person seemed silent for a moment, thinking over their question for a moment before simply saying, "Ria... well... hm... I think. I'm not actually fully sure. I'm gonna say Ria for now since that feels right." Ria seemed to turn sharply towards the left and said directly to themselves in a COMPLETELY different voice, "I mean, or you could tell them the truth..." Ria shook their head and said, "I am pretty sure that is the truth." "Liar." "I'm not lying. It's Ria. Anyway, you distracted me. You guys. Extractor. Extracted? Exploded?"
