Uncanny Reflection
"Sorry, but no," Austin said. "Not unless someone comes up with an explanation that's less than ten words."
Taylor gave him a triumphant smirk. "Everything he touches, figuratively and literally, turns to shit," he said.
"Damn it," Austin muttered under his breath. "Just tell me this Egg-person doesn't patrol the seas so far out, and we can keep sailing with the hatch open for fresh air and open sky."

"Yes..." Austin replied. "It would have been fiercer and we'd have heard it had I hit something. A lot fiercer."
Taylor opened his mouth, then realized what was going on, closed it, then said, "The entropy thing."
"Nothing major. Just handling like it's not been used in a few years," Austin said.
Another shudder ran through the sub, but a bit less rocky. "Okay. We're clear of the piers. Let's take accelerating slowly for a bit till we're clear of the harbor. Course?" Austin asked.
Taylor scrunched up in concentration for a bit. "Two sixty-three should put us in the area by the estimated time they figured. We're just a little bit behind their schedule on finding that cure."
"Cure? You know that thing is more than just a plague," Austin said, sighing.

Austin nodded. "Yeah. A few days. We are, after all, heading as far from land as one can possibly go." He examined the instrumentation. "Seems simple enough, with assistance from the instruments. I've worked this kind of thing before." He flicked a few switches, and some panels lit up. "Okay, and to start the motors." He reached for the ignition switch, and a shudder ran throughout the sub.
"Gah! Austin!" Taylor said, spooked.
"Just the engines cranking up. Stop worrying, stay back, and shut up," he shot back.

Damn Nu. I used to make it clear to Ragna in Score Attack mode, and now...

Summer Jump(sign up)
Also preferable to option one.

I'm gonna have to ask one or two other people I know if I can use incidents that involved them as flashbacks, however, before I confirm my participance.

Also would like to see the 'curse' "May you live in interesting times" used at least once.

"Ink," Shenar said, sidling up behind the changeling. There was no better term to use for his lieutenant. "All is well, I hope. We've an assignment from Exile himself. We're to investigate a site alongside the fifth and ninth forces. All we were told is that it's some kind of temple guarded by a magical barrier. You, being the prodigy you are, are going to help me break the barrier under cover from the other forces and any others of our group who make it that far. Now, either one of us could do it ourselves, but... The way it was told implied that there would be something else beyond the barrier, and I do NOT want to take chances." He nodded, as if to himself. He looked back into the chamber Ink had left. "What was that you were working on just now? Impressive for one such as you to do it with so few tangible components. You're certainly the best candidate to succeed me should something happen..."
==========================
Taylor stopped as he saw Rolo and Seed rush by on what appeared to be a bull. "HEY! ROLO! I NEED YOU FOR SOMETHING!" He called out as he turned and ran after the other captain.
------------------------
Austin grabbed the fruit that Seed and Rolo left behind. "Alright, to the twelfth squad. Hope they got a better idea of what to do with this."
===============
Judas wasn't all that fazed. He'd just been ranted at by Scarlett, as it happened. "Before Lieutenant Scarlett, First Force Leader of Force Eleven goes off on you slighting protocol, we're just here to ask whether you got something on what killed the squads sent out to Ambush Point." He closed in on Tac. "And remember. She's the psycho with a sword and anger issues... and I got an axe bigger than you are. Don't give us the runaround with big words and charts we can't read. Just tell us what you've figured out so far."

"No singing anime themes. Violators will be relocated."
"No soliciting. Violators will be slain."
"No loitering. Violators will be assimilated."
"No swimming. Shark-infested waters."

13 Court Guard War : Rise of Exile XIII
Judas knew he should've been afraid of Scarlett right then and there, and his face went through the motions as the sword's tip was leveled less than an inch from his eye, but he wasn't. No, a little spark of fury rushed through his mind as the fox ranted. And what have you done since the First Exile summoned Odin to create this place? I've done the same, and more, in both this life and the last. Are you willing to die for the 'respect' you insist you deserve? he thought as Scarlett went out of sight. If one of the Other Thirteen don't oblige you on that count, then I gladly would. Bitch. Still. They had to talk to Tac, and it would be easier if Scarlett was in scary-as-all-hell mode because she'd not been referred to by her title. Huh. Give me strength.
----------------------
"As you wish." Shenar turned and followed Sunrise. As they left the throne room, he told the dragon, "I'll go get my... students, and be with you shortly."
=============
"Roger that," Taylor said, and he headed out of the conference room. He'd check up on Austin and then find Rolo. Only... something was very wrong as he headed for the Fourth Squad's compound. He broke into a run, and a chain formed around his right wrist and extended as he went into a sprint. Oh no.
-----------------------
Chet nodded. He'd have to make a pit stop at his own compound to see what he would be able to rig up to make Alexi's part of the task that much easier. Then there were the concoctions he had made, as he still dabbled some in alchemy...
-----------------------
Victor had what appeared to be one of those weird metal lunchboxes, but glass could be heard clinking together inside it. Little flash-boiling alchemical grenades, some that would indeed work for the purpose he thought was needed.

*Cue GGXX's "Holy Orders"*

And beat Boss I-No with Sol now. Who next... Faust... Chipp... Order Sol..?

So yeah. Finally finished GGAC+ arcade mode with Ky. Phew.

The Happy Birthday thread.
Well, you showed me adorable right there. Almost makes my day.

GENESIC EMERALD TAGER BUSTER

*Devlin is smashed facefirst into the pavement with enough force to make a crater*

Real Soviet damage.

Tch, no tolerance for a mystery here. State your former handle and your purpose here...
Or face the Killer Rabbit.

"What was that whole deal about?" Austin asked as they boarded the sub.
"Making us seem important and impatient enough that he'd stop asking questions," Taylor said. "Alright. Let's settle in for the long haul, even at a good clip it's going to be a few days to our target. Fire 'er up and move 'em out."
