Expanded Beginnings

basic stuff....thought you knew at least some stuff bout em

OOC: Right...

IC:

Calton: Well...crap. Not much here really...So much for hoping for a quick fix...

kharr sees keili on the ground unharmed but paralyzed and sev the same way but there is nothing around

the krogan look around their weapons raised as kharr picks em both up

Celi: shit...

Calton: Look...I really hate to suggest this, and by that I mean I'm really tapping into some dark impulses here but...what about nerve gas?

nothing unless you want to

Celi: and where the hell would we get that?

Calton: Honestly, given how brutally pragmatic your brother can be, I was holding out he had a cache on the ship.

Celi: not as far as I know

Calton: Well, great. So conventional means it is then.

OOC: FYI, be afraid. Be very afraid that Calton thought to use nerve gas....

"yeah...great"

*Calton checks the security feed outside the bridge door.*

Calton: Well, I don't see any out there, but that doesn't mean they aren't close by...

"yeah..."

Calton: *sighs* Watch my back. Stay here if something happens. *Slightly opens the door and slides out, rifle ready.*

IIC, hey! you! new Internet Chronicles is out!

OOC. ...fuck! i just realised where the word "Dreadnought" comes from!
Dread-naught. Fear Nothing.

Celi: where are you going?

Calton: Just checking to make sure it's safe. Or if we have to hunker down and barricade the doors.

"oh...alright"

*He exits the room and starts searching the camera blind spots.*

wats he lookin for

OOC: He's making sure there are no Collectors hiding or otherwise gathering nearby in the camera blind spots.

*there are none*

*He sighs with relief and enters the bridge, making sure to seal the door behind him.*

Calton: We're safe for now...at least...I think...

Celi sighs with releif
"Look...kharr didn't mean what he said"

Calton: Really? He seemed pretty serious about it.

Celi: he was just angry. I mean he'd just heard his pregnant girlfriend was in mortal danger n all

Calton: Yeah. I suppose. I was just worried he was BSODing when we couldn't afford that. I just didn't want to see things get worse. Seeing your brother go dead silent is just...unnerving to say the least...

"I know...but he honestly didn't mean it. trust me"

Calton: I'll take your word for it.

"Don't you trust me?"

Calton *is clearly worried by her question*: No. I do. Why would you think I don't trust you?

"i...don't know. Calton i'm...i'm scared"

*Calton hugs her.*

Calton: I'm scared to. Look, it'll be okay.

she hugs back
she's shaking

Calton: Please, calm down. Panicking won't help. *Holds her closer to him.* Come on, you're better than this.

she takes some deep breaths and stops shaking

Calton: There we go. It's okay. We'll make it through this. We made it through Eden Prime, we'll make it through this.

she nods

Calton: Now....Let's see if I can find where they're..."hive" is. *Begins searching the security systems for the Collectors.*

She looks over his shoulder

*Does he find anything?*

*nuffin*

Calton: Damn it...where could they be hiding?!

"I don't know"

OOC: Listen, I'm going to get some sleep. Night.

oh....gnight

Ooc. ......i fucking hate this economics teacher... Yet another exam, yet another time when 90% of the examees are just staring and saying "not only did we not learn half of these things, she didnt even mention that they exist..."

....why the hell couldnt she die instead of the informatics teacher?! That one was a good teacher, AND new what he was doing...


Edit: aaaaand, pretty much everyone failed the exam... kinda unsuprising when you havent even heard of half the things she expects you to know...

OOC: have you tried inquiring into why she hasn't explained half the course to you?

Also

IC: *After numerous drug busts, the systems alliance are beginning to grow suspicious of the unknown figure giving them infirmation about various Earth based gangs*

OOC hey bushy! how did ye like the new hobbit?

OOC: pretty good, I loved John Cleese's voice acting for Hale
