Cross Effects: Rebirth (2.0) The RP

Elf:
Gabriel enjoyed the view as he started to give the rest of her omelet a good home.  He replied, "Of course I do.  I'm Fae.  We always have plans.  As to sharing those plans, I am also Fae so that means they will be revealed at my own leisure."

He mourned the sight of her covered breasts and smirked at the thought of her going knickerless into town.

Wynn's lips curved upward as she took the German's hand.  She said, "I would suggest not letting to of my hand, or there is a great chance you could be lost forever."

Then she pulled Rattus and herself into the shadows.

Brahmastra:
"If you are simply going to hide them away, then let's get downstairs." Pulling on her jacket and adjusting her skirt to sit low enough to give a hint of privacy, she indicated the door with a toss of her hair.

Kaze:
LANCELOT

Lancelot gave a brisk nod at his former king’s words. He decided that the best course of action to protect what remained of his newly reacquired sanity was to simply pretend that she still was the ruling monarch, until she managed to explain what had happened. Until then he would treat her words as orders, the unbreakable law of the king.

“It will be as you say.” The dark knight briefly looked over at the street where he had been run over just moments ago, before turning his attention back on Quinn. “May I assume the other major transportation method in these parts are the horseless metal carriages?”


MERCER

Mercer was entirely focused on the man-bird machine, calculating exactly how he would absorb the imminent dive-bomb and time his counter attack. As a result, it took him too long to notice that his connection to the REDLIGHT hive mind was active – something that should be utterly impossible. He had left the infection behind in New York when he had somehow been transported to this Nexus City place.

It was only when ZEUS heard a heavy footfall behind him that he realized he was being targeted by a new assailant. Abandoning his attempt to kill the bird, Mercer threw himself to the side in an effort to avoid whatever attack came his way. He wasn’t nearly fast enough.

Something sharp tore through the sentient virus, cutting straight through the biomass where his hips would be if he were human. He swore in irritation at having his legs cut off for the second time in the same battle. Landing hard on his side, Mercer quickly formed a few tendrils of biomass to reach out and grab his severed legs, reabsorbing the biomass into his body even as he constructed new legs.

Jumping to his feet, Mercer got a good look at his new attacker, and found himself face to face with the impossibility.

A young boy sitting in a cage, surrounded by toys. Him playing basketball on the roof. Two pudgy hands pressed up against broken glass.

“While MOTHER represents what we think is a simple carrier, something we’ve seen time and again, PARIAH is unique.”

The same kid standing against a wall, covered in the blood of the mutilated dog lying next to him.

“There are several intriguing anomalies: for one, the subject is male. Secondly, it exhibits no evidence of carrying any virus. However… we’re not at all certain what he is.”

Mercer grit his teeth as images and words from stolen memories assaulted him, bringing on the faimiliar headache.

“You… you’re…” ZEUS staggered back a step, trying to regain his bearings while focusing on the one REDLIGHT specimen he had never expected to see.

Arch-Magos Winter:

Then to Archer, she looked at him before blurting out, "DoyouwantmetoshowyouaroundNexusafterthesungoesdown?"

"...I'm sorry, could you say that a little slower?" Archer asked, smiling a little bit. "I think you just asked me out on a date there but I can't be sure."

Elf:
Gabriel said, "Aren't you going to ask what my slightly devious plans are?  Aren't you just a bit curious?"

******

Forest bit her lip as she looked at Archer's teasing smile.  Her eyes narrowed slightly as she gripped the plate in her hands.

"Yes, I just asked you on a date," she managed to say before quickly looking away, "I was offering to show you around town."

Then she braced herself for the upcoming rejection.

"They're called cars," Quinn answered giving Saber a look.

The blond frowned and tilted her head as she studied her knight.  It was damned obvious to Quinn that the Black Knight was falling into an old pattern; probably for comfort.  He was probably confused and out of sorts in this world of technology and steel.

She said, "This world has changed greatly, Lancelot.  Some changes are for the better, like plumbing, while others . . . not so much."

Quinn tilted his head and said, "Come on, I'll lead the way."  He did grin at Saber's comment about plumbing as he started to walk into the direction of the best pizza in Nexus.
