May the odds...

Characters: Minglelog for anyone not involved in the event
Setting: During the first part of the event, in the media room or near any terminal
Format: Whatever!
Summary: As Ruana's chosen dogs set out to hunt and/or run, the rest of the tower watches.
Warnings: very possibly mentions of violence and character death? Will update as needed!

[Sometimes in the morning, strange events start to be broadcasted to the screens of the media room and the terminal, showing familiar faces, though some maybe in not quite so familiar get-ups. Looks like Ruana's game is just about to start!]

[David cranes his neck so that Reno can see his collar more easily, and taps the fluid glowing inside of it.]

Orange, here. How's about you?
midgarhorizon: (oh look what we have here)

[personal profile] midgarhorizon 2014-03-04 07:49 am (UTC)(link)
Orange. Ya got anything special 'bout you other than the suit?

[personal profile] megazero_to_superhero 2014-03-04 07:51 am (UTC)(link)
Nope. I mean I was startin' to look into dat Incarnate stuff dat a lot of heroes were becomin' back on Primal Earth, but I was nowhere near bein' one.
midgarhorizon: ((Fanart) Heh heh heh)

[personal profile] midgarhorizon 2014-03-04 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Aside from the natural abilities everybody on my planet got, I'm a regular guy. I rely on my own strength here.

[He shrugs, waving a hand.]

Can't use magic without materia, and all the materia here is film.

[David nods, a little somberly. Well, even if it couldn't really make his abilities any more real, being able to resist whatever manipulation the tower pulled on its hapless residents is a big enough plus by itself to warrant getting that new collar fluid.]

So—dat would mean we're on da bottom rung of da ladder. An' as you go through da rainbow, you got people with more an' more powers?
midgarhorizon: (on the job and not amused)

[personal profile] midgarhorizon 2014-03-04 08:26 am (UTC)(link)
You'd think, 'cept those freaks Jason sent after us in December didn't seem to see us, and they screwed up the violets pretty good. So there's some advantages.

[personal profile] megazero_to_superhero 2014-03-04 11:56 am (UTC)(link)
Huh—what was up with all dat, anyway? You guys ever figure out what his angle was?

[That event was also one of many instances proving that David really should have learned how to fight hand to hand—or with that orc's sword—much sooner.]
midgarhorizon: ((Helicopter) Worried)

[personal profile] midgarhorizon 2014-03-05 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Aria took over the Tower so she could build this room. Jason was tryin' to get at us and stop the process. Lost a lot of people in that battle...

[And the look on Reno's face tells he'd gotten to witness the aftermath. Not one of the lucky ones.]

I... guess it was worth it. We got this place now.
megazero_to_superhero: Now where'd that last goon go? (✪ Observing ★ Conversation)

[personal profile] megazero_to_superhero 2014-03-05 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Next time, I ain't gonna let myself sit on da sidelines, no matter what.

[David pulls on one of the shoulder plates on his armor, as if working out a crick. He wonders if the suit is ever going to function properly again after donating to repower the Tower, but at least as the month's gone on he's been slowly feeling less and less out of it.]

Speakin' of which—you said you teach martial arts, right?
midgarhorizon: (on the job and not amused)

[personal profile] midgarhorizon 2014-03-05 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Been teaching off and on for two years now. I kinda got a system.

[And he really needs to check up on Rick...]

[personal profile] megazero_to_superhero 2014-03-05 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
Think I could sign up for gettin' some lessons? 'Cause who knows if somethin'll happen an' I'll wind up losin' dis sword. Oughta cover all my bases, yanno?
midgarhorizon: (smilesmilesmile)

[personal profile] midgarhorizon 2014-03-05 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
Sure. I like gettin' up early and doin' that stuff in the morning. About nine hundred if that all right for you. Down in the gym.
megazero_to_superhero: You tell me where, I'll tell you when. (✪ Serious ★ Conversation ★ Listening)

[personal profile] megazero_to_superhero 2014-03-05 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, sounds good to me. Which floor's da gym on again?
midgarhorizon: ((Helicopter Chase) Suspicious)

[personal profile] midgarhorizon 2014-03-08 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah, Thirty-nine. There's a floor guide somewhere in that stuff.
megazero_to_superhero: Now where'd that last goon go? (✪ Observing ★ Conversation)

[personal profile] megazero_to_superhero 2014-03-08 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
[David looks back over to where all the documents are laid out, and sifts through them for a few seconds before picking up the floor guide.]

—Oh yeah, here. ... Arright, so I got somethin' else I gotta look over, heh.

[Glancing through the guide, and flipping it over, David continues to muse.]

I got shown some floor guides an' maps before by dis troll girl my first week here, but I ain't seen her around in forever.
midgarhorizon: ((Helicopter Chase) Disbelief)

[personal profile] midgarhorizon 2014-03-08 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
Made the big maps myself, so they're real detailed if you want to get familiar with 'em. Diarmuid did the guide there.

[personal profile] megazero_to_superhero 2014-03-08 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Bro, you just unlocked the minimap.]

Oh, you bet yer sweet bippy I'm gonna.

[It beats having to test which floors are safe and which are not with his face, after all!]

What days of da week do are you free for da martial arts stuff? 'S'a daily thing you do, or you got time off?
midgarhorizon: ((Fanart) Serious and deadly)

[personal profile] midgarhorizon 2014-03-14 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Most days, I'm pretty flexible 'bout it. If I'm not teaching I'm down hunting for the resident's kitchen.

Hey, David, would ya mind if you put in a couple of reports yourself? I was remembering that conversation we had and you mentioned stuff I don't know too much about. Just stuff you can remember of the big events. Don't have to, but the more we get in here the easier figuring all this shit out will be.
megazero_to_superhero: I gotta fight Hamidon in a bikini?! (✪ Conversation ★ Surprise)

[personal profile] megazero_to_superhero 2014-03-15 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
[David nods after Reno tells him the when and where as far as martial arts training goes. He looks back down at the Tower floor guide, only to glance back up after Reno.]

—Huh?

[And then processing Reno's request ...]

Oh, sure, I can do dat.

[He looks about the table to see if there's any spare paper and pencils.]

Gotta warn ya, my handwriting sucks.
midgarhorizon: (on the job and not amused)

[personal profile] midgarhorizon 2014-03-15 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Reno pulls out a few half buried pencils, and motions to a stack of blank.]

Hey, can't be worse than mine.
megazero_to_superhero: Now where'd that last goon go? (✪ Observing ★ Conversation)

[personal profile] megazero_to_superhero 2014-03-15 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, I dunno, you should ask da guys at City Hall about da forms I've filled out.

[Taking one of the pencils and a blank piece of paper, David starts jotting down what he remembers of the glamour failure. He's trying to be a little more careful about how he writes, since he wants this to be legible ... of course, writing anything with thick armored gauntlets can make for an added challenge.]
