[21:19] [Day: Monday. Time: 8:00 p.m.] [21:20] [MC is in the clubroom, where it all started. Supposedly, the world's going to end today. It'd better hurry up.] [21:20] [Session Start] [21:20] * Norii cleans her gun. [21:20] * Sai sits in a chair and fidgets. [21:20] * Eoi cleans his Naginata. [21:20] So. Today is the last day of the rest of our lives. [21:20] * Mei-Yin paces back and forth, back and forth, one hand always perched on the hilt of her katana. [21:22] Yes, isn't it just dreadful? [21:22] * Chelsea is back on the windowsil, looking out the window. [21:22] Hmph. [21:22] ( Fortunately, 30 NPCs are going to save the world, so you don't have to worry about it. ) [21:22] GAH! [21:22] So... what do we do? [21:22] * Shigeru taps his way in. He looks like a mess, and has his laptop as always (not even the end of the world can make him part with the thing). In his left hand is a wrapped wakizashi. "Hey, guys." [21:22] * Mei-Yin kicks the wall. [21:22] 'lo Shig. What's with the blade? [21:23] * Mei-Yin grabs Shigeru in a big hug. [21:23] *** Chamelaeon is now known as ChamWorking [21:23] Ack! [21:23] * Shigeru hugs Mei back, once he realizes what's going on. "Hiya, Mei." [21:23] Good evening, Shiggy. [21:23] Hey Shigeru. [21:23] Oh, this? It's a present from Chel way back. Not that I ever used it. [21:23] I figured someone might want it for a backup or something. It won't do me any good. [21:23] When was that? [21:24] * Shigeru snerks. "Back before she dragged me here." [21:24] (Aw, fuck. I just realized that I never spent my CP.) [21:24] * Chelsea chuckles. [21:24] (Join the club, just let it go. :P) [21:24] ( Neither did I. ) [21:24] ( I just pumped it into more DR, just in case it matters. ) [21:25] Any word from Saki Sai? [21:25] * Mei-Yin makes puppydog eyes at Shigeru. O_O [21:25] No. [21:25] ( Well, nobody sent me any character sheets, so none of you got anything. Harr. ) [21:25] * Shigeru doesn't notice the puppydog eyes. He's blind, yes? [21:25] [Shigeru is blind.] [21:25] (I wasn't going to spend it, anyhow. ^_^) [21:25] (Thank you, GM!) [21:26] * Sai shrugs and dials Saki's number. [21:26] I don't suppose you've heard from your Godfriend Chel? [21:27] * Sai scowls and flicks the phone off, returning it to his pocket. [21:27] Nobody's hearing anything. [21:27] * Eoi thinks. An amazing act for Eoi. [21:27] It's the Not-The-End-of-the-World. [21:27] * Chelsea shakes her head. "Not a word, no." ( I assume that, anyway. ) [21:27] The calm before the storm? [21:28] ( Chelsea assumes properly. ) [21:28] Maybe the eye of the storm. [21:28] I wonder.. if we can predict what's next. ... Hell, it's worth a try. Is there anything special about those two points we visited? [21:28] Is there a map somewhere around here? [21:28] ( Maybe it's a different End of the World. *fiddles with his Akio voodoo doll* ) [21:28] Well, they're both centers of wierdness, I think. [21:28] Maybe.. they intersect at something.. or there is some sort of pattern? [21:29] It's hard to make a pattern from two points. [21:29] It'd be a straight line. [21:29] * Eoi nods. "I'm wondering if they intersect somewhere." [21:29] I doubt it. Nothing is that easy, but it's worth a shot. [21:29] ...Eoi, we only have two points. [21:29] * Shigeru sweatdrops. "Eoi, they're *lines*. It's- go take Geometry again." [21:29] Of _course_ they intersect. [21:30] Heh. [21:30] I'm saying, maybe something is at the point WHERE they intersect. [21:30] * Shigeru facepalms. [21:30] ... [21:30] ?me rolls her eyes. [21:30] * Chelsea smirks and shakes her head. [21:30] Do you even know what intersect means, Eoi? [21:30] Okay, someone gimme a map. [21:31] * Eoi sighs and shrugs. "Whatever. Nevermind." [21:31] * Shigeru sits down and boots up his computer. He waves Mei-Yin over to be his eyes. [21:31] No, he's got a point. [21:31] You need at least two lines to have a point of intersection. Meaning you need at least four points. [21:31] * Mei-Yin walks over and stands behind Shigeru, wrapping her arms lightly around his shoulders and resting her chin on his head. [21:32] * Shigeru smiles quirkily as he does some quick typing. Before long, Mei has her map. [21:32] Okay, Tokyo Tower at one end... [21:32] * Mei-Yin tries to find the other place. [21:33] Where's that island, Shigeru? [21:33] * Shigeru looks for a bit, then points. "Right there." [21:34] Okay, now put a line between them. [21:34] ...the line is going to point out into the ocean. [21:35] Of course it is, Norii. [21:36] It's also going to point in the _other_ direction, and to a bunch of points in between. [21:36] What's in the other direction? [21:36] ( I'll know as soon as the GM tells me. ) [21:36] * Chelsea stretches and stands, walking over to look at the map over Shigeru's shoulder. [21:36] * Sai walks over to look at the screen, too. Something to do, at least. [21:37] ( The GM is busy trying to figure out what you're doing. ) [21:37] ( We're just BSing until something happens. ) [21:37] ( Okay, draw a line between that island and Tokyo Tower. We want to know if there's anything important on that line. ) [21:37] ( I think we're taking a stab at the dark. ) [21:37] (I attack the darkness!) [21:37] ( That about sums it up. ) [21:38] [Nothing in particular shows up. The exact center of the line is somewhere in an intersection 4 blocks north of the Tokyo Bay area.] [21:39] Okay, that's no good. [21:39] * Sai shrugs. "We could always just hang around Tokyo Tower. Stuff seems to happen there. Or watch the TV at the Rats." [21:39] * Mei-Yin tries plotting those two as two of the points of a pentagon. [21:39] I don't want to risk being in the wrong place at the wrong time. [21:39] * Mei-Yin takes over the keyboard from Shigeru. e_e [21:40] Damn. [21:40] * Shigeru lets her. [21:40] * Eoi blinks and slumps back. His eyes glaze over. [21:40] (Pentagon, or pentagram? ^^) [21:40] * Sai turns and looks at Eoi. [21:40] ( They're the same thing. ) [21:40] Uh, Eoi? You're zoning more than usual. [21:41] ( Same end result, really. ) [21:41] * Sai waves a hand in front of Eoi's face. [21:41] (True. :P) [21:41] (But pentragram's the thing they kept killing me in!) [21:41] (*kicks the Typo Demon*) [21:41] Eoi? [21:41] * Eoi shakes his head and his eyes unglaze. [21:41] Well.. if nobody has a better plan, I've got an idea. [21:42] This had better not involve pizza. [21:42] What is it? [21:42] Share the idea, Eoi. [21:42] Not in the least. [21:42] Let's head to my Grandfather's shrine. Back where we first met Byakky. [21:42] Ah ha. [21:42] I just got a.. well, a vision. I've been getting a lot of those recently. Of the stone where the demon was sealed. [21:42] Huh. [21:42] That... is as good a place as any, really. [21:42] Let's go, then. [21:42] (Was that a typo, or intentional Eoi-speak? ^^ ) [21:43] Sounds alright to me. [21:43] * Chelsea nods and heads for the door. [21:43] * Shigeru gets to his feet and shuts down the puter. He puts it away. [21:43] * Shigeru grabs Mei's hand before she walks off. [21:43] Wait a sec! [21:43] * Norii finishes reassembling her gun and puts away the cleaning kit. [21:44] I'll meetcha there. [21:44] I'm coming! [21:44] * Sai follows someone, since he's never been there before. [21:44] * Mei-Yin pulls Shigeru along behind her. [21:44] * Eoi heads for his bike. [21:44] * Shigeru manages to grab the wakizashi before he's pulled away. @_@ [21:45] * Sai continues to dial Saki's number every few minutes along the way. [21:45] Um... Mei? [21:45] Yes? ^_^ [21:45] (Door.) [21:46] [One way or another, they get there. Time: 8:30] [21:47] (Back. ^^;) [21:47] * Shigeru hands the weapon to Mei. "You take it." [21:47] * Eoi looks around for his grandfather. [21:47] * Mei-Yin smiles widely and radiates pleasure. "Thank you! [21:47] * Mei-Yin gives Shigeru a quick hug. [21:47] * Shigeru blushes. [21:48] * Mei-Yin quickly tucks the wakizashi next to her katana. She'd look like a samurai if she were wearing more appropriate clothes. [21:48] * Sai looks around the shrine, since he's not been there before. [21:48] Shy did you bring it, Shig? [21:49] ( why ) [21:49] Dammit, Saki, of all the times not to answer the phone... [21:49] * Shigeru shrugs. "Backup." [21:49] [After climbing the many stairs up the hill, Eoi sees a note on the door. "Gone to the Shinto Priest's club. Leave donations in the QuickDonate(tm) slot to the left.] [21:49] (idle for a few minutes. Getting snacks.) [21:49] * Eoi nods and heads for the back. [21:50] [Unsurprisingly, Eoi finds a dead S-type in a pentagram of his own blood. Nobody else seems to be around, though.] [21:50] * Mei-Yin scowls. [21:50] Damn. Right in the backyard. I'm really pissed off now. [21:50] We're too late? [21:51] Probably, yes. [21:51] * Shigeru sighs. [21:51] Shigeru, let's plot this place on the map. [21:51] Damnit. Okay. [21:51] * Shigeru sits and boots up. [21:51] * Norii examines the S-type closely. [21:51] * Shigeru waves someone over to be his eyes. [21:52] * Mei-Yin donates her eyes. [21:52] What a waste of cute clone. [21:52] ( SHIT! ) [21:52] ( GIGANTIC thunderstorm coming. ) [21:53] ( Go tell it to wait. ) [21:53] Don't you be making eyes at my Shigeru, Norii. Get your own. [21:53] Eh, the real one's taken, and I doubt the clones are, uh, going to be friendly. [21:53] * Shigeru snickers and plots the point. [21:53] I'm sure if you wanted, you could tame one. [21:53] Just a shame, that's all. [21:53] * Mei-Yin holds back a snicker. [21:53] * Shigeru plots the points and takes a look at the center. [21:54] * Chelsea chuckles quietly. [21:54] ( I may vanish suddenly. ) [21:54] Tame one? Oh, I'll let you try first. [21:54] (Back.) [21:54] Too late. I already tamed mine. ^_^ [21:54] * Mei-Yin hugs Shigeru, keeping her eyes on the screen. [21:54] ... You know, this is a very disturbing conversation. [21:55] * Shigeru laughs. [21:55] Are you tame, Shiggy? [21:55] What do you think? [21:55] ( Oh, _that's_ a dangerous question. ) [21:55] [The triangle formed by the three points is not a pretty one. But the location in the exact center certainly stands out, for the lot of rubble it's directed towards used to be the Dairoba building.] [21:55] ... [21:55] You think? [21:55] ( Crap, crap, crap. This doesn't sound good. ) [21:55] Eh. It always comes back to Dairoba. [21:55] * Sai looks at the screen. "Oh, fun." [21:56] It always comes back to Dairoba. [21:56] Back to the place of no power. Great fun. [21:56] We just can't get away from that damn place. [21:56] How delightful. [21:59] [1/2 hour Intermission] [22:25] [Intermission End] [22:27] [MC has determined that the most likely place they should investigate is the Dairoba lot.] [22:27] Let's go, there's no time to waste. [22:27] * Sai nods. [22:28] * Mei-Yin takes Shigeru's hand and pulls him to his feet. [22:28] * Chelsea nods and sets off. To the ruins of Dairoba! [22:28] Fun, fun. [22:29] As long as we have something. [22:29] We've got something, and it's something that makes sense. [22:29] Which is amazing, frankly. [22:30] Train time! [22:30] Quite amazing, yes. [22:30] Let's go! [22:30] * Mei-Yin pulls Shigeru along towards the train station. [22:30] * Sai goes! [22:31] [Eoi promises to follow on his bike.] [22:31] [Time: 10:00 p.m.] [22:32] [MC stands outside the gate. The Dairoba ruins are, at first glance, just how you left them the last time you were here.] [22:33] * Sai takes a second glance, then. [22:33] This is the... third time? Second time we've been here? [22:33] Second, for me. [22:33] [Sai's second glance yields the same results.] [22:33] * Sai shrugs. "First for me." [22:33] Second, I believe. [22:33] For me, it began here, and it will end here. [22:34] * Chelsea nods and looks around for the entrance. [22:35] [Chelsea sees it. It's that gate that MC is right outside of.] [22:35] (Gah, back.) [22:35] [Eoi has not yet shown up.] [22:35] ( I meant the gate to the underground area where the enemy is no doubt lurking, but fine. ) [22:35] ( Hikaru: "Didn't the place blow up the last time we were here?" Sai: "Shut up, and go and play more Go." ) [22:35] ( Entrance, even. Blah. ) [22:37] ...should we yell to see if anyone is here, or is it a sneaking situation? [22:37] * Shigeru frowns and taps his foot. [22:38] Where the hell is Eoi? [22:38] [The gate is wide open. It hasn't been shut since the last time you were here.] [22:38] * Mei-Yin scowls. [22:38] I don't think it will matter. Perhaps we should wait for Eoi? [22:39] Shigeru... if this place is still the same, you're gonna be totally blind in there. [22:39] I know. [22:40] I don't like that at all. [22:42] You think I do? [22:42] But I can't do much about it, y'know. Would you rather I stay here? [22:42] * Chelsea frowns. [22:42] ... [22:43] ...I'd rather you and I both go far, far away. Unfortunately, that's not an option, seeing as how the world will end. [22:43] Splitting up is a bad idea. [22:43] * Shigeru nods. [22:45] [Whilst they argue, more time passes; Eoi still does not show up. [22:45] ] [22:46] ...Eoi... where the hell are you? [22:46] Argh. Can we really afford to wait? [22:47] What time is it? [22:47] I'm not sure. On the one hand, we'll be weakened without him, especially down there. [22:47] [Time: 10:15 p.m.] [22:48] Okay, another... fifteen minutes to a half hour. Then we leave some kind of message for him and go anyway. [22:48] ( Shigeru assumes that the world is gonna end at midnight :P ) [22:48] (It's classic. ^_^) [22:49] ( Everyone gimme an awareness roll. ) [22:49] (Even me?) [22:49] 2d6 [22:49] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6) and gets 6. [22:49] 2d6-2 [22:49] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (2d6-2) and gets 8. [22:49] ( No, not you :P ) [22:49] ( Made it. ) [22:49] (You're mean! ;_;) [22:49] 2d6 [22:49] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (2d6) and gets 7. [22:49] 2d6 [22:49] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6) and gets 12, a CRITICAL FAILURE!!! "Don't blame me. Blame yourself, or God." [22:49] (Not quite.) [22:49] ( You're blind :P ) [22:50] (Duh. :P) [22:50] ( I've gone blind! ) [22:51] (Don't give the GM ideas.) [22:51] Oh, dear. [22:51] Hrm? [22:51] *What* is *THAT?* [22:51] What? [22:51] * Shigeru peeks through Chelsea's eyes. [22:51] Wha? [22:51] ...I don't like the sound of that. What is it? [22:51] It's a problem, Norii. Probably a big one. [22:51] The glowy light pillar thingy. A nice evil red, too. [22:52] * Mei-Yin stoops down and picks something up off the ground. [22:52] ... Yay. [22:52] Ooooh! [22:52] Uh, I think we should stop waiting around, then. [22:52] [Nobody sees anything, 'cept Norii and Chelsea. Maybe it's not easy to make out.] [22:52] Where is it? [22:52] (Can I see it through Chel's eyes, or no?) [22:52] ( Yes, actually. ) [22:53] * Mei-Yin looks at whatever it is she picked up. *_* [22:53] * Chelsea frowns. "I believe this is a 'no' to waiting for Eoi." [22:54] Fine. Lead the way, then. [22:55] * Norii pushes through the gate, looking for where the light is coming from. [22:55] * Chelsea does that, leading the group past the gate. She draws her sword as she does so, since it just might come in handy. [22:55] (Ya think?) [22:55] * Sai follows Chelsea, then. [22:55] * Mei-Yin is left behind? [22:55] *_* [22:55] * Shigeru pulls Mei-Yin towards the gate. Whatever she spotted had better be good. [22:56] (It's sad when the blind guy is leading someone around. :P) [22:56] * Mei-Yin is pulled! "Wah!" [22:57] *** MLINK_AFK is now known as Mechalink [22:57] [The group enters the gate and sees Vlad, standing next to a pentagram. A rather muscular, handsome S-type is in this one, but he's standing in the pillar of light, and certainly doesnlt look dead. High above him, three other rays of the redish light are coming together on top of the pillar.] [22:58] *** Kirb-thing is now known as Vlad [22:58] * Shigeru scowls. [22:58] * Chelsea raises an eyebrow. [22:58] How is it some S-types are buff, and others aren't? [22:58] They made some later than others. [22:59] They're Super-S-types. [22:59] S Prime, I presume. [23:00] So do we kill it, or are they going to sac it? [23:00] Guess. [23:00] We kill them both. [23:01] * Chelsea draws her casting dagger and casts her shield spell, then begins moving towards Vladimir. [23:01] * Sai chants the words to his barrier spell. [23:01] * Norii already has her pistol out, but she's a little leery of jumping into this fight. [23:01] * Vlad turns around to face you. "My, so quick to be hostile. Which one of us is truely demonic?" [23:02] * Mei-Yin draws her sword and points it dramatically at Vlad. [23:02] Ending the world is a horrible thing to do! In the name of Shigeru, I will punish you! [23:02] Both, Nagy-pa. [23:02] * Vlad blinks at Mei-Yin, then laughs. "You still don't get it. That's sad." [23:03] Well, why don't you enlighten us, then? [23:03] * Vlad yawns. "Oh well. You came all this way, I ought to give you a swift death." [23:03] I think the only constant of all of is is that we don't "get it". [23:03] "Before I kill you, Mister Bond..." [23:04] * Shigeru rolls his eyes. [23:04] * Chelsea stops moving and eyes Mei. [23:05] *muttered* Okay, Mei is going crazy. [23:05] * Vlad suddenly changes. He grows big. Very big. Like, 12 feet. His skin turns blue, and his face distorts as long tusks grow from his lower teeth. His hair becomes white, and a beard forms. His eyes are pools of red. [23:05] I am NOT going crazy! [23:05] ... Uh, Dad? [23:05] (Vlademir's Papa Smurf!) [23:05] * Vlad gestures, and a lack of sword appears in his hand. No, really. There's an area of darkness in the shape of a sword. [23:05] * Mei-Yin turns to face Norii, one hand on her hip. [23:05] Why do you keep insisting that I'm going crazy? [23:05] (Er... a giant, evil Papa Smurf.) [23:06] Do you _WANT_ me to go crazy and kill you all? [23:06] ( with tusks. ) [23:06] I don't really want to, but your constant bitching might just drive me to it. [23:06] (Right. A giant, evil Papa Smurf with tusks.) [23:06] There's no need to call me that anymore. You ought to know that. [23:06] I mean, jeez, it's not like I've done anything really crazy lately, have I? [23:06] ( Shigeru: "I'm Angsty Smurf!" ) [23:06] * Shigeru shrugs. "Hard to think of you as somethin' else. I *was* conditioned over twenty years and all." [23:07] Even when you're a giant, hideous rendition of a smurf. [23:07] Do you really think I'd kill my friends? [23:07] Do I look like that kind of person to you? [23:07] I was not intending to imply you were becoming psychotic, only that you are acting weird. [23:07] (Damn straight. No stealing my title, Sai.) [23:07] Well that's just wonderful. [23:07] My friends think I'm wierd. [23:07] You are weird. 'S not a bad thing. [23:07] Welcome to the club. Hey, guys, you think I'm weird? [23:07] I'd say we're all pretty weird, Mei-Yin. [23:08] I can't believe you have the nerve to call me weird when you're the biochemist here. [23:08] Perhaps they're not your friends after all. [23:08] * Chelsea seems unimpressed. "We're all weird, Mei. But let's discuss it later, yes?" [23:08] I mean sure, I'm a compsci dual majoring in culinary arts, but still, that's not wierd, is it? [23:08] What, do you think geeks can't cook? [23:08] * Vlad points to Shiggy. "After all, how many times have they killed him?" [23:08] * Mei-Yin turns around and GLARES at Vlad. "STAY OUT OF THIS!" [23:09] * Mei-Yin spins back around to Norii. [23:09] *** CharleSlumber has quit IRC (Ping timeout ) [23:09] * Norii grins fondly at Mei-Yin. [23:09] Now, are you going to stop calling me weird and crazy? [23:09] Never change, Mei. [23:09] ( *cracks up* ) [23:09] Such tempers kids have these days. [23:09] (That was cute.) [23:09] * Chelsea smirks. [23:09] Just because I like videotaping everything I see, and am occasionally a ghost and stalked Shigeru just because he actually noticed me doesn't make me weird. [23:09] * Vlad yawns. "Oh well. I can wait. I can wait for all eternity." He laughs. "What's left of it." [23:09] Of course not. [23:10] I mean, come on, it's not like I'm going to get hideously jealous of you unless you try to do something stupid like stealing _MY_ Shigeru when there are plenty to go around. [23:10] *** Demotafk has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer ) [23:10] * Shigeru facepalms. [23:10] You could even do like Chelsea and go find a God to pal around with. [23:10] Weird...weird is Jake. You're not weird. [23:10] * Norii brushes a tear from her eye. [23:10] Now _that's_ a boyfriend. [23:10] *** Demota has joined #BESM [23:10] *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Demota [23:11] I mean, it's not like you can grow your own boyfriend in a vat, you're not Tim Curry. [23:11] And Shigeru isn't Rocky. I hope. [23:11] Rocky wasn't very bright. [23:11] Oh, just wait. [23:11] In any case, FIND YOUR OWN BOYFRIEND AND STOP CALLING ME WEIRD! [23:11] * Chelsea looks back at Mei, then turns and looks up at Vladimir. "So, Nagy-pa. How have you been these past few months?" [23:11] * Vlad glances at the column, and grins. The S-type falls to the ground. [23:11] * Mei-Yin spins back around to Vlad. [23:11] NOW! [23:11] * Shigeru urks. [23:11] ( Shigeru = Ard. Ard = Rocky. ) [23:12] ( Shigeru = Rocky. ) [23:12] Let's get on with the asskicking, evilboy. [23:12] (Only on occassion, Dem. :P) [23:12] You're too late already. [23:12] But that's okay. [23:12] It's never too late! [23:12] * Mei-Yin CHARGES! [23:12] I'll kill you a few minutes early. [23:12] * Chelsea sighs. "Wonderful. We didn't waste *too* much time there." [23:12] ( init ) [23:12] d6+8 [23:12] d6+6 [23:12] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (d6+8) and gets 14. [23:12] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (d6+6) and gets 7. [23:12] d6+7 [23:12] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (d6+7) and gets 10. [23:13] d6+6 [23:13] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Shigeru (d6+6) and gets 9. [23:13] d6+7 [23:13] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (d6+7) and gets 9. [23:14] [Chelsea, Vlad, Norii, Shigeru, Mei, Sai] [23:14] [Chelsea's turn] [23:14] *** Eoi has joined #BESM [23:15] ( Eoi, roll a d6 ) [23:15] d6 [23:15] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (d6) and gets 2. [23:15] ( Crap. What'd I miss? ) [23:15] [Chelsea, Vlad, Norii, Shigeru, Mei, Eoi, Sai] [23:15] ( the coolest rant EVER. ) [23:15] (Mei ranting and us arriving at our DOOM.) [23:15] ( Mei just doomed the world. ) [23:15] ( Fuck. ) [23:15] (Pretty much. ^_^) [23:15] * Chelsea looks up at Vladimir, and her face contorts into a sneer. She charges him, shrieking in rage as she thrusts her sword towards his abdomen. [23:16] 2d6-6 [23:16] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6-6) and gets 1. [23:16] ( But Eoi gets to ride in on his bike and do a supercharge with his naginata. ) [23:16] ( Hooray. It's Bicycle Repairman! ) [23:16] (Eoi limit break?) [23:17] [Chelsea stabs at Vlad, but he deftly parries the attack.] [23:18] [Vlad's turn!] [23:19] * Vlad shouts "Predictable!" And slashes at Chelsea with his own sword (or lack of it). She needs a def. roll at +1! [23:19] (It's a sword of defending plus one!) [23:19] 2d6-3 [23:19] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6-3) and gets 7. [23:20] ( Damn you, dice. ;_; ) [23:20] ( Could be worse. We could have Majin in here. ) [23:20] ( Hee. ) [23:20] ( You remember how I said I was a kinder, gentler Dicesuke? ) [23:20] ( True. ) [23:20] ( You died. ) [23:20] (You lied.) [23:20] ( ...I lied. E_E ) [23:20] ( Dice> This is surprising? ) [23:20] ( Dicesuke! You've been cheating on Daisuke with Majin! ) [23:21] (I didn't believe you for a moment! ;_;) [23:21] ( Nope. I get both. I'm a pimp at sea. I always get the booty. ) [23:21] ( What, you thought we actually believed you when you said that? ) [23:21] (*twitch*) [23:21] [Evidently, Vlad was right. Chelsea is hit by the attack, and feels it. Most of the momentum is stopped by the shield, but the sword manages to get through that to cut her just above the elbow. The wound feels like acid.] [23:22] * Chelsea grins. [23:22] [Norii's turn] [23:22] * Norii draws a bead on Vlad's head, says a prayer, and pulls the trigger. [23:22] 2d6-2 [23:22] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (2d6-2) and gets 1. [23:22] ( That is a called shot, obviously. ) [23:23] [The bullet *ping!*s off Vlad's head. Whether he felt it or not is unknown.] [23:23] [Shig's turn] [23:24] * Shigeru ignores Vlademir. He taps towards the pillar. [23:24] [The pillar is very pillary.] [23:24] [Mei's turn] [23:24] (Mmm, pillary.) [23:24] * Mei-Yin CHARGES! [23:25] 2d6-2 [23:25] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6-2) and gets 7. [23:25] 2d6-2 [23:25] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6-2) and gets 3. [23:25] ( that's better. ) [23:26] [Mei hits! Though black liquid begins to flow from the wound she cut in his side, he doesn't seem to react.] [23:26] [Sai's turn] [23:27] * Sai aims both hands at Vlad. "SOUL BURST!" Not that yelling it louder than normal helps anything, but it's cathartic. [23:27] 2d6-2 [23:27] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (2d6-2) and gets 6. [23:28] [Sai hits! (barely). The magic slams into Vlad, but he reacts about as much from that as from everything else. [23:28] ] [23:28] [Chelsea's turn] [23:29] * Chelsea makes another (obvious) thrust towards Vlad. [23:29] 2d6-6 [23:29] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6-6) and gets -1. [23:31] [Chelsea hits this time! She cuts a considerable wound in him.] [23:31] [Vlad's turn] [23:31] * Vlad takes a deep breath. [23:32] [Norii's turn] [23:32] * Norii tries to put a bullet in Vlad's wide-open mouth. [23:32] 2d6-2 (cs) [23:33] 2d6-2 [23:33] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (2d6-2) and gets 7. [23:33] [Norii doesn't do a very good job of it, as Vlad is able to tilt his head out of the way.] [23:33] [Shig's turn] [23:34] * Shigeru sticks his hand into the red pillar. [23:34] [Body roll +2, Shig] [23:35] 2d6+2 [23:35] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Shigeru (2d6+2) and gets 9. [23:35] 2d6+2 [23:35] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Shigeru (2d6+2) and gets 10. [23:35] (No.) [23:35] [Shig's hand starts to sizzle.] [23:36] [Mei's turn] [23:36] * Shigeru yanks his hand out. "Christ!" [23:36] ( eeeeew. ) [23:36] * Mei-Yin slices quickly at the stupid demon. [23:36] 2d6-2 [23:36] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6-2) and gets 5. [23:36] ( Made it, barely. ) [23:37] [Mei slashes a perpendicular wound to the one she inflected before. It'll scar into a cool looking X.] [23:38] [At that moment, Eoi comes riding through the gate on his bike.] [23:38] [Eoi's turn] [23:38] (Our hero!) [23:39] ( Tuxedo Eoi, you came! ) [23:39] ( Might Eoi is here to save the day! ) [23:39] (Tux- no, no. Won't say it.) [23:41] 2d6-4 [23:41] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (2d6-4) and gets 3. [23:43] * Eoi rides towards Gan.. err Vlad. As he approaches, his Naginata glows golden, leaves a sort of streak behind him as he rides forward. Just as he passes Vald, he slashes with a shout. "Naginata Techinque #3! EOI BLADE!" [23:44] ( ... ) [23:44] ( *cracks up* ) [23:44] ( SNERK ) [23:44] (*cracks up*) [23:44] ( NOW I've seen everything. ) [23:45] [Eoi cuts a nice sized gap in the demon.] [23:45] [Sai's turn] [23:45] * Sai keeps blasting. "SOUL BURST!" [23:45] 2d6-2 [23:45] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (2d6-2) and gets 5. [23:46] [Sai hits, but we've seen his attack so many times by now that it's gone the way of Sailor Moon's stock footage attacks.] [23:46] [Chelsea's turn] [23:46] ( ... Pretty Sailor Sai. I can see it. ) [23:46] (Ha!) [23:46] (Is Eoi Sailor Moon, then?) [23:46] ( Nah. Most of their stock footage is more interesting than the Soul Burst. :P ) [23:47] ( Naw. He's Tux-boy.. ) [23:47] ( You mean Tux-girl? ^_^ ) [23:47] ( No, I mean Tux-Boy. ) [23:47] (Tux-wannabe.) [23:47] (Eoi *wishes* he were Tux Boy.) [23:48] * Chelsea attacks again! [23:48] 2d6-6 [23:48] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6-6) and gets 5. [23:48] [Chelsea hits him, also cutting a nice wound.] [23:48] [Vlad's turn] [23:49] ( *puts on a blue and yellow sailor fuku* Alright, where's my badass magic sword? ) [23:50] * Vlad finishes taking that breath and raises his fist. Then he shakes it, shouting "OYAJIIIIIIII!" Everyone make a body roll. [23:50] 2d6 [23:50] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6) and gets 7. [23:50] 2d6 [23:50] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (2d6) and gets 2, a CRITICAL SUCCESS!!! "That was close. One cycle later and you'd have fit nicely into a sandwich." [23:50] ( Any mods? ) [23:50] ( Nope. ) [23:50] 2d6 [23:50] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (2d6) and gets 5. [23:50] 2d6 [23:50] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Shigeru (2d6) and gets 7. [23:50] ( Made it! ) [23:51] 2d6 [23:51] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (2d6) and gets 9. [23:51] 2d6 [23:51] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Chelsea (2d6) and gets 4. [23:51] ( MAde it. Woo! ) [23:51] ( :P ) [23:51] ( *raises a forearm at Vlad* Doshita doshita? ) [23:52] [The cry is loud and annoying to most of you, though Sai doesn't find it so. Norii and Mei's ears start to bleed by the end.] [23:52] * Mei-Yin cries. [23:52] [Norii's turn] [23:52] Aaaaaaaaagh! [23:53] * Norii fights down the pain and just shoots. [23:53] 2d6-3 [23:53] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Norii (2d6-3) and gets 5. [23:53] * Shigeru grimaces, clutching his ears. [23:54] * Sai fights off the urge to sweatdrop. [23:54] [Norii wings him in the shoulder.] [23:54] ( Sai, roll 2d6 ) [23:54] 2d6 [23:54] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (2d6) and gets 7. [23:54] [Sai sweatdrops.] [23:54] [Shig's turn] [23:54] ( *falls over* ) [23:55] * Shigeru shakes his head and concentrates on dear old not-dad. [23:55] 2d6-3 [23:55] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Shigeru (2d6-3) and gets 7. [23:56] [Mei's turn] [23:57] * Mei-Yin fights the pain and tries to slash him again. ;_; [23:57] 2d6-2 [23:57] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Mei-Yin (2d6-2) and gets 3. [23:57] [Mei succeeds, cutting his arm.] [23:58] [Eoi's turn] [23:59] * Eoi slows his bike to a halt and hops off. (can I still do something?) [23:59] ( You can make a partial action, or attack at a +2 ) [00:00] * Eoi rushes forward and gives the bastard a regular Naginata slash. [00:00] 2d6-4 [00:00] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (2d6-4) and gets 3. [00:00] ( Made it. ) [00:01] [Secret Technique #0, Eoi Normal Naginata Slash hits Vlad in what must have been a vital spot, because he falls down and doesn't get back up.] [00:01] Well. That was unexpected. [00:01] Just a little. [00:01] Alright! [00:02] * Mei-Yin jumps up and down and claps happily. [00:02] What? We only hit him a dozen times or so... [00:02] Now what? [00:02] * Sai looks towards the pillar. [00:02] How do we stop the pillar? [00:02] Regular Techinque #2 Normal Slash worked perfectly! ^_^_V [00:02] * Mei-Yin walks towards it. [00:02] * Norii looks. Is the pillar still there? [00:02] It burns, is what it does. [00:02] * Shigeru rubs at his hand. [00:02] [The pillar is still there, yep.] [00:02] * Chelsea scowls. She walks over to Vlad's body and stabs it once, just to make sure it's dead. [00:02] * Mei-Yin walks up to the pillar and looks at it strangely. [00:03] * Sai eyes the pillar speculatively. [00:03] * Mei-Yin holds up her sword and tries to push it, point first, into the pillar. [00:03] [The body gibs, covering Chelsea in gory goo. So yeah, he's probably dead.] [00:03] * Eoi pulls out a spirit ward and tosses it into the pillar, curiously. [00:03] Eeeeeew. [00:04] [The spirit ward burns up as it connects. Mei's sword starts to glow red at the end. [00:04] * Chelsea is thankful her force field has the 'block gibs' attribute. [00:04] ] [00:04] * Mei-Yin continues pushing the sword in. [00:04] * Shigeru frowns. [00:04] Someone look towards the top. What's up there? [00:04] Damn, where's that Treasa when you need her? [00:04] Perhaps the source is underground? [00:04] Damn. That's some hot evil. [00:05] * Sai looks up higher at the pillar. [00:05] [The pillar is connecting with three rays of light from different directions.] [00:06] There's three rays of light...I'm guessing they go to the other sacrifices. [00:06] You know, Grandpa is going to be really pissed off when he sees a blood sacrifice and giant unholy beam of light in his backyard. [00:06] [Mei's sword continues to turn red, the front more so than the back.] [00:06] Ya think? [00:06] * Mei-Yin pulls her sword out. [00:06] Can we cut them off? [00:06] Hey, Norii, think you can shoot where those three rays connect? [00:06] So what the hell do we do with this thing? [00:06] ...probably, but I doubt it'll do anything. [00:06] Cut them off.. [00:06] "It was a stupid plan." [00:06] *** Vlad is now known as Byakko [00:07] Oh, not you. [00:07] * Shigeru blinks. "Oh, hi Byakko." [00:07] ... [00:07] ...who is this? [00:07] * Byakko is standing near the rubble of the building. [00:07] Ah. Byakko. [00:07] Which plan? [00:07] * Sai glares at Byakko. [00:07] I was wondering when you'd show ub Byakky. [00:07] * Byakko grins at Eoi. "Looking beautiful as usual, gal." [00:07] So, gonna explain what the hell this is? [00:08] * Chelsea sighs and turns to look at Byakko. "Good evening, Byakko." [00:08] ... [00:08] I suppose so. [00:08] Down, Eoi. [00:08] * Eoi resists the urge to drive his Naginata into Byakko's skull, because that's just not polite. [00:08] His stupid clones we, of course, no match for my creation. [00:08] (Can't parse that. ^^;) [00:08] ( Neither can I. ) [00:08] He'd hoped to summon the rainbow bridge Bifrost, and battle it personally. [00:09] (Dragon Warrior!) [00:09] ( Norse myths, actually. ) [00:09] ... [00:09] .. Okay. Why? [00:09] Chelsea, can you deal with this guy? I mean, he's practically your brother now, right? [00:10] Not quite yet, Mei. [00:10] Future in-law, perhaps. ...now, there is a dreadful thought. [00:10] So what's this Bifrost and why would he want to fight it? [00:10] You've got quite an interesting family here Chel. [00:11] * Byakko glances at the rings on his fingers. "He succeeded, for all the good it did him." [00:11] Bifrost? Bifrost is... Well, there's no reason I should bother to explain it. [00:11] ... [00:11] Let me guess. We're all going to die soon anyway, so it doesn't matter? [00:11] What, it's about to show up? [00:11] No. It's right behind us. [00:11] That, and I just don't feel like it. [00:12] How nice of you. [00:12] I'll give you a nikuman if you do. [00:12] I'm going to go celebrate my victory now. Thanks for the drinks, my dear almost sister-in-law. [00:12] * Byakko vanishes in a gust of wind. [00:12] ... [00:12] *** Byakko is now known as Kirby [00:12] Asshole. [00:13] Needlessly dramatic. [00:13] So... now what? [00:13] Last I checked, Bifrost was the bridge between Midgard and Asgard, where the gods of Norse myth dwell. [00:13] A lot like Chelsea? [00:13] Not sure what he won... [00:13] * Sai looks back at the pillar. [00:13] * Shigeru frowns. "So this thing's a bridge?" [00:13] ... How the hell do you fight a bridge? [00:13] And WHY? [00:13] Not one we can take. [00:13] Perhaps. [00:13] * Mei-Yin shrugs. [00:14] We'll win. That's all there is to it. [00:14] We just have to figure out how. [00:14] ( It's the bridge to the 21st-and-a-half century! ) [00:14] So, the bridge is here. How is this dooming us? [00:14] ( Eoi, gimme a mind roll. ) [00:14] ... Maybe it's a portal. [00:14] ( Any mods? ) [00:14] To, y'know, hell? Again. [00:14] ( heightened awareness ) [00:15] 2d6 [00:15] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Eoi (2d6) and gets 6. [00:15] ( Made it. ) [00:15] [Eoi gets hit on the head by a green Skittle.] [00:15] 2d6-4 [00:15] * Dicesuke throws the bones for Sai (2d6-4) and gets 5. [00:16] ( Eoi tastes the rainbow! ) [00:16] ... The hell? [00:16] ( o_o ) [00:16] (Taste the rainbow!) [00:16] ( Rainbow bridge, even. ) [00:16] * Eoi looks at the skittle. [00:16] ( How are you going to eat that many skittles at once? ) [00:16] ( TASTE THE RAINBOW! TASTE IT! ) [00:16] Eoi? [00:16] What is it, Eoi? [00:16] * Eoi peers at the skittle. "Hey, Green skittles. One of my favorites." [00:17] It's a skittle. [00:17] [Eoi gets hit on the head. By a blue skittle. [00:17] ] [00:17] How nice. [00:17] A skittle? [00:17] ( If we end up in Starburts Crystal, I will kill you. ) [00:17] YOu mean... the candy? [00:17] (Aww, come on. Kit Kat! You love Kit Kat!) [00:17] ( Hey! I shoulda thought of that. ) [00:17] * Eoi peers and looks at this one too. "And now a blue skittle. Why the hell is there candy falling on me?" [00:17] * Mei-Yin looks up. [00:17] * Sai looks up. [00:17] * Eoi looks up. [00:17] * Norii shields her head. [00:17] * Shigeru looks through the eyes of somebody looking up. [00:18] [They see an enormous amount of skittles falling right towards Eoi] [00:18] Uh, Eoi... [00:18] Skittles. May I have them? You do owe me for killing my grandfather, you know. [00:18] * Mei-Yin dives to push Eoi out of the way. [00:18] * Sai steps AWAY from Eoi. [00:18] ... Okay. Uh. [00:18] * Eoi moves out of the way. [00:19] Don't eat them. You don't know- [00:19] [The skittles pile on each other and fuse when they hit the ground. In a matter of minutes, a tasty rainbow bridge leads towards the sky.] [00:19] They're skittles. Jeez. Magical candy skittles. Maybe the god of Naginata is smiling down on me. [00:19] What the... [00:19] Ah. There's the bridge. Shall we go? [00:19] ...magical candy bridge. [00:19] Er... shall we? [00:19] ... This is pretty fucked up. [00:19] ...uh. [00:19] ... Cool. [00:20] * Mei-Yin starts up the bridge. [00:20] I am oh so confused here. [00:20] * Eoi hands Chelsea the blue skittle, and munches on the green one he picked up, and starts up the bridge. [00:20] * Norii is seriously boggled. [00:20] ( You must eat the bridge! ) [00:20] * Shigeru stands there. "Uh... help?" ^^; [00:20] ( Don't eat it on the way up, or you'll regret it :P ) [00:20] *blink* Hey, are you sure we should go up that? [00:20] [The bridge is solid!] [00:20] * Sai grabs Shigeru by the arm and leads him to the bridge. "C'mon." [00:20] * Shigeru is led! Yay! [00:20] * Chelsea starts up the bridge, and accepts the green skittle. "Thank you." [00:21] Geez. [00:21] What else are we gonna do? [00:21] So. We've all gone insane right. I just want to make sure of this. [00:21] [We're off to see the Asgard! The wonderful Asgard of Gods!] [00:21] * Norii checks behind the party, then follows. [00:21] [Session End]
