«Oldest ‹Older 4201 – 4400 of 4509 Newer› Newest»(No, but I do Soph.)
Erica: do you protect it?
*enough
Erica: are there many of them?
*pouts*
Tia! You stole my Deathy. My level of offended has just reached past maximum capacity. No, that’s a lie. There is no longer a maximum capcity, you broke the meter of offended-ness. How could you?
(*She smiled at Eld and cuddled closer to Tia*
My Tia...)
Erica: and the others?
*cuddles Rose protectively*
Sorry, Eldritch. I know what the ladies like...
(*She giggled and edibles at Eld*
He kidnapped me... He's evil! Don't trust the Tia!)
*glanced at
[ *dramatic gasp*
Fine, be that way. I see how it is!
*hides in well*]
(*She frowned and looked after Eld*
Tia...?)
Erica: ah. Makes sense.
We are standing three metres away from Eldritch. I'm sure he (she?) would have noticed if I kidnapped you.
(Well, you did forcibly remove me from my previous position cuddling Eld... I call that kidnapping!)
Erica: indeed we wouldn't. It'd be...well a bit unfortunate.
*feeds warmth into their hug*
*smiles at her*
((My author has woken up to discover that no more hot chocolate supplies remain...))
(*pokes head from well*
100% kidnap I deserve an apology.)
(*She looked wearily at Toa for a moment, then slowly leaned in so her face was pressed into his chest*
Warm... You are now forgiven...
(0.0))
(How about the warmest person gets to have cuddling rights?)
*Tia
Erica: you have a very important job.
(warmest person gets cuddling rights? Damn it I'm too cool for cuddling rights
*sobs*)
*melts into the hug...*
*...and sees Eldritch, crying*
Rose? Group hug?
(One way to find out, Eld...
*She held one arm wasy from Tia*
Or how about a group hug...?)
(*She anuggled closer to Tia, shivering in his warmth*
Group hug....)
(Sleepy...)
Ugh!!
*away
*sunggled
(It seems I disappeared again.)
Erica: *nods*
(Boooooored. Soph you still here?)
((Okay, I'm going to call it a night. If anyone wants to contact me during the week, email me: deathyrose@gmail.com
Bye...))
(Yes, I am, Silente.)
(yes you are. Wanna non cannon rp?)
(In which respect?)
(any respect. I'm bored. I wanna rp. Non cannon means I don't have to worry about damage.)
(I see. Then a non-canon roleplay would be acceptable. With which character of mine, or me?)
(Whichever you choose. The more destructive the rp the better. So either one that's a reletive match for Sil or one who is cruel and drags things out/destroys things.)
(I think I'm in the mood for causing some destruction. Would it be Silente vs me in some respect or something different?)
(Silente vs you. Sound okay?)
(Sure.)
(Okay then.)
*presses the detonator and the ship explodes into flames*
(Which ship?)
(yours if you don't mind. If you have a problem with that then a random one)
(Nooo! Tia's spoon was on that ship!)
(I do have a problem with it. Apologies.)
(thats fine. A random ship then.)
*sees ship explode* *starts heading in that direction with her pistol drawn*
*smiles at the explosion, watching burning people run from it screaming, laughing and running over to the fire, dancing in the cacophony of screams to the music of pain*

Chapter Two is up and running! Please, go check it out, and leave a comment if you like it. Or if you hate it.
*not actually here*
*reaches the fallen ship and pauses, judging the situation*
*spots Sophia and grins, waving at her before snapping a burning persons neck*
*laughs and tears an arm of the body, licking the cooked flesh and taking a bite*
*aims her pistol at Silente and shoots*
(Yay we broke Silente!)
((Tia would not be happy, should I bring her into this?))
*spins out of the way, the slug hitting the poor simpleton behind her*
*grins and throws the arm away*
(I will be back in a little while.)
(Hello, Xan!)
*stumbles into the clearing, smoke obstructing her vision*
*walks towards the silhouettes*
*spots Silente*
Sil! Are you ok?
(*melting*)
*grins at Tia*
Yep.
I remembered black skies
The lightning all around me
I remembered each flash
As time began to blur
Like a startling sign
That fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve.
*walks closer to her, about to pull her into a hug, if Silente didn't beat her to it*
What happened?
(*nods at Xan*
*melting*)
(No idea, Xan. How are you?)
*stiffens in the hug*
*awkwardly hugs her back*
The..uh...ship exploded.
*wraps a hand behind Silente's head, massaging it*
And you were here because...?
Because I was trying to stop it?
*nods*
Actually I don't remember.
*frowns*
(I am back.)
*shoots at Silente again several times in quick succession*
*bullets hit Tia, as she was covering Silente's body while hugging her*
*pushes Tia out of the way of the shots, ducking and diving*
*looks up at Soph*
*stray bullet still hits her*
*her arm glows blue with biotic energy and she throws part of the wreckage at Silente*
*A wild Tanya appears*
*she is not happy*
*flips back to avoid the debris being thrown at her*
*grins at Sophia*
*starts running towards her*
*continues to shoot at Silente with her pistol as she's running*
*keeps diving to avoid the slugs and tackles Sophia, grinning down at her, pinning her gun hand*
Hello.
*sneaks towards Tia, begins treating her wound, as well as giving her painkillers*
*stalks away from her, angry*
*injects herself with a serum*
*slowly starts losing her humanity, starts losing skin, starts growing claws*
*activates her holographic blade on her other hand and slices it at Silente* *throws her off with her biotics*
*curses at the cut and is sent flying away, twisting to land on her feet*
*looks at Tanya and curses louder*
*looks between Soph and Tanya*
*her claws finish forming, as do her razor-sharp teeth*
*charges at Sophia*
*aims her pistol at Silente, then switches targets to Tanya*
*shoots at Tanya*
*charges Tanya, still very much human*
*the bullets rip right through her, not causing much damage, nor having sufficient stopping power to halt her advance*
*reaches Sophia, and rips away at an unarmed part of her neck*
(My neck is completely armoured?)
*tears the armour apart, then uses both claws to rip and slice away at her neck.
*steps backward, and throws her backwards with her biotics* *continues to shoot at Tanya, aiming for the head*
*tackles Tanya, snarling*
*moves faster than any human, not letting Sophia get more than three shots off before Tanya's on top of her, slicing her gun in half, and returning to slashing away at Sophia's armour*
*gets tackled by Silente*
*pauses, looking into her eyes*
*locks eyes with Tanya, challenging her, growling*
*slowly reaches out one of her claws to caress Silente's hair*
*withdraws it after a few seconds*
*pushes Silente off her, and turns to face Sophia*
*looks at her*
*smiles, showing her teeth*
*throws a shockwave of biotic energy at Tanya*
*growls louder, pointedly*
*moves so she's in front of Soph, the message clear*
*not yours*
*braces herself, not dodging the shockwave*
*moves to the side, so she can still see Soph*
*points at her, a part of her, with a smile on her face. A cruel smile. A winning smile*
*draws her machine gun, aiming it around Silente* *aims down the scope and shoots at Tanya, firing in short, accurate bursts*
*snarls, dodging the bursts and very, very slowly advancing*
*and then Soph's weapon overheats and Tanya is on her*
*she's slashing away at the armour near Silente's hips...*
*...and punctures the armour to destroy Sophia's shield generator*
*gives a snarl of victory, temporarily distracted*
(How would my machine gun overheat? How would Tanya know anything about my technology?)
(Maybe because you stopped firing?)
(Hello)
*snarls and tackles Tanya, pinning her, eyes challenging her to fight back*
*holds her down by the throat, straddling her hips, one hand pinning both wrists above Tanya's head*
Sit.
(I see.)
*returns her machine gun to her back, and lifts Tanya into the air with her biotics* *gestures towards a part of the ship's wreckage and it is launched at her*
*looks at Silente in defiance, struggling to break free*
(Ok, bye)
(Hello/Goodbye, Edward?)
(Uh... *isn't sure what's happened now then* hey ed.)
(Hello, Ed!)
(wait has Tanya been lifted up with biotics or not?)
(I did do it.)
(okay. Was Sil lifted to or...?)
((A good stand-off we have here...))
(I don't think so.)
(okay.)
*watches the debris flying at Tanya*
((You no longer have your shields so... if Tanya wasn't a raging vampire she'd probably shoot you.))
*extended fighting has worsened Tanya's wounds*
*she limps into the forest, clutching her wounds and leaving a trail of blood, but not before sparing a final glance at Sophia and Silente*
(Back, food)
*draws her machine gun again, and reloads* *shoots at Tanya as she limps away*
*a bullet hits her leg, taking her down*
*crawl over to Tia*
*sighs*
*pushes Soph over, making her aim miss, then runs after Tanya*
*sits down watching fight*
(Wait, did I hit or not?)
*one bullet did*
*leaps to her feet and continues to shoot at Tanya*
Sophia? Why are you attacking them, if you don't mind me asking?
(Yeah, I'm pretty far away by now, by Tia's resting body)
Silente blew up a ship. Tanya attacked me. Problem?
No, just wondering. May I help you?
*runs towards Tanya's location, then, and shoots at her*
Hell Xan, how are you?
I work alone, Edward.
Very well *Places kitten on Sophias head and sits down again*
*squeezes Tia's hand, then gets up and runs into the forest*
*throws the kitten off*
*shoots at Tanya as she runs, then starts to run after her*
I am fine thanks, popcorn for the fight?
*tackles Soph to the ground* stop!
*pushes Silente away, and aims her machine gun at her instead* What did you do to the ship?
Uh...it blew up?
*Eats popcorn*
No. I saw you biting someone. You blew it up.
Nu uh. It blew up of natural causes. I just happened to be near by.
*Offers Silent a sword* Here, if you need it
*shakes head* Tell me the truth.
The ship went bang! I don't know why! Now point your toy elsewhere.
*Tia gets up, and staggers towards the Soph and Sil, covered in blood*
*is groggy*
Sil... what happened? Wh-
Did Sophia shoot me? Where is my sister?
*lifts her into the air with her biotics* No. It didn't. I know you too well. Now tell me the truth before I shoot you.
Tanya went on the rampage, Tia.
Hey! Put me down Soph!
*looks at Tia*
Tanya went that way.
*points*
*shoots Silente in the foot* Tell me why you blew it up.
*cries out and growls*
I DIDN'T!
*Pokes Sophia* Sorry, I couldn't help but realise you are attacking Silente
(Hear hear)
She just blew up a ship, Edward. I am asking her why.
Silente, unless you start being cooperative, I will kill you.
Yes, but Silente is a friend. And I didn't shoot you in the foot when you blew up Inkys cottage
(Hear hear)
*walks towards Sophia*
Let my Sil down.
And you owe us an apology. You can't just come in here and start shooting.
*nods at Tia's words*
Exactly. Let me down.
You didn't shoot me in the foot because you know you bloody deserved it.
Actually, Tia, I can.
I'm not letting you down until you tell me why you blew up the ship, Silente.
Really? *Shoots her in the foot* You destroyed her cottage for no reason
*doesn't even flinch thanks to her armour* *aims her machine gun at Edward* I blew up the cottage because you locked me in a bloody cage with a vampire, you asshole. Now don't pretend it was for no reason.
It was a joke? *Machine gun rusts and crumbles*
Hey! That 'bloody vampire' is right here! Sorta..
*jumps up at Sil, bringing them both down*
*growls and lifts Edward into the air alongside Silente, slamming him into a tree*
Thank you Xan.
*lifts Tia and Silente into the air along with Edward*
*Rib cracks* Ow, and you wonder why I locked you in a cage *jumps lightning in hand*
You locked me in a cage because you're a bloody asshole.
Soph! Put us all down!
Now now Sophia *throws time energy at her*
No. Not yet. I will when you all stop being ridiculous and actually listen.
Edward, you locked me in a cage - I destroyed your house. As far as I'm aware, we're even, so quit being a dick.
Silente, tell me why you blew up the ship and I won't kill you.
*dives out of the way, lifting Edward up* *uproots a tree and swings it at him using her biotics*
Very well *Cage appears round Sophia* The vampire will be here shortly
You shot us!
((Just finished watching the Mummy episode of DW, it wasn't too bad.))
*Is thrown into another tree several bones are broken* Really?
(Best episode of the series Tia)
*pulls the bars apart with her biotics and steps out of the cage* *swings the tree at Edward again*
*Painfully rolls out of way of tree* Why are you attacking me?
I can't tell you why I blew up the ship because I DIDN'T BLOW IT UP.
((And now, my author's plot is nearly complete...))
(Hello Blake)
You attacked me first. And you broke my gun. Quit getting in my way and I won't hurt you.
You did, Silente. You did. I saw you beside the wreckage biting one of the people. You were enjoying the wreckage and the flames.
*Lets flame pass* O, but one last thing. *Sophias armour rusts until almost broken* That was for the broken ribs *appears by Xan*
*mutters* I didn't bite anyone. *louder* ENJOYING it?? I was trying to direct the people ESCAPING from it!
(My armour is ceramic. It doesn't rust.)
*nothing happens*
I saw you bite someone. I saw you. Now stop lying, Silente.
You sound like a broken record Soph.
*is getting real sick of this*
*pulls out the .44 Tanya gave her*
*has it aimed at Soph*
Not. One. Move.
*approaches Sophia, the business end of the gun aimed at Sophia's head*
*is very close to Sophia*
*drops the gun, pulling Sophia into a hug*
Aww, no need to get violent! *smiles*
(Ok)
*Punches Sophia then appears by n*
*darkness covers the area, blinding everyone. His voice comes from all sides at once*
All of you are going to do two things. Calm down, and shut up. Once that's been done, you'll be able to see again and we can all talk like intelligent people, clear?
(Blakey...)
*pushes Tia away* Stop trying to hug me!
(Hello
I'm here ^^)
(Hello Inky)
Blake?
B- but I...
*hugs her again* we can resolve this with hugs, not violence!
(Yeah about that Xan, it's not really something you're going to get rid of by making a lot of noise.)
Keeping you people from starting a useless fight, ever heard of the term "talk it out"? Oh, and that didn't sound very calm. Or quiet. Simple directions.
*pushes Tia away again* For god's sake, how many times do I have to tell you that I don't like physical contact?
(I is good, u?)
*walks in* hello *smiles*
(Fine thanks)
Hello Inky
(It's magical darkness, even if it wasn't you can't make your shadow go away by yelling at it.)
*a mischievous grin appears on her face*
But how else can I make you feel all warm and happy and fuzzy?
