LordHighRikonian: OK. TO set the scene. Proty's character is off doing god knows what.
LordHighRikonian: Safe to assume you guys are at the club? :)
Dat Dude Gil: That seems to be a focal point of all this mess, anyway.
Dat Dude Gil: er, the
InfinHorizon: How long has it been since the last game, time wise?
LordHighRikonian: next day
Wushuwrior has left the room.
Dat Dude Gil: Well, what did we find out last time?
Proteus454 has entered the room.
Dat Dude Gil: *turns to Ifreet* Welcome. welcome all over again.
Proteus454: Neato. Sorry for my tarditude, guys. Where were we, er, you?
LordHighRikonian: just starting
Proteus454: Spiffy
LordHighRikonian: everyone is at the club to regroup
InfinHorizon: *is sitting at the bar, skimming through the morning paper*
Proteus454: *Likewise*
Dat Dude Gil: *is also sitting at the bar, sipping a coke, waiting to find out what happened yesterday*
LordHighRikonian: brb
Dat Dude Gil: *to proty* did you discover anything new yesterday?
LordHighRikonian: bak
Proteus454: Apart from Eric here? Not much.
InfinHorizon: TB: Just a man from another dimension.......
Dat Dude Gil: *extends a hand to eric* hello
InfinHorizon: "Hi, I'm Erik Tremble." *Smiles and shakes hand*
Dat Dude Gil: *smiles back* my name is hamoi. Nice to meet you.
Proteus454: "So now Gentlemen...What's our plan? Wehere do we all stand with what?"
InfinHorizon: "A pleasure" *Tips his fedora back*
InfinHorizon: "Well, Let see, I've been mistaken for a dead eco-terrorist and his father in the past day, and I can't remember where I've been the last month and a half. I'm not very happy."
InfinHorizon: *Leans back in his chair*
Dat Dude Gil: Well, sometimes the only answer lies within yourself, my son.
InfinHorizon: *Smiles*
Dat Dude Gil: I wonder how long until they realize I don't have a clue as to what I'm saying?
InfinHorizon: TB:Pity he doesn't know I'm coming up on my 51st birthday
Proteus454: "I've had my own life disrupted more than a little recetnly, so I can understand your consternation. Myself, I remain convinced this all ties together somehow...Not that I have much evidence to back that up."
InfinHorizon: (Just to remind everyone TB = Thought Balloon)
Proteus454: "Ironic, isn't it? A Lawyer acting without evidence..." *Humourless grin and chuckle*
Proteus454: (Natch)
Dat Dude Gil: (indeed)
InfinHorizon: "By the way, is George W. Bush president?"
Proteus454: "I fear so."
Dat Dude Gil: *picks up a newspaper fand begins reading* Dunno.
InfinHorizon: TB: Even in Alternate realities, people have bad taste
Proteus454: "In any event, there doesn't seem to be a lot for us to do at the moment...I suppose all we can really do at this point is wiat for something interesting to happen..."
Proteus454: "...But, then again, I suppose plot devices don't just fall from the sky, do they?"
InfinHorizon: "Mr. Ibn-Faden, I remember you mentioned, a 'Deenay" yesterday?"
Proteus454: "Fadlan. And yes, I did. Deeyenay, the rap star. What of him, sir?"
Dat Dude Gil: *listens a bit but keeps reading*
InfinHorizon: "Today's paper states he murdered on of his associates" *Passes paper*
Dat Dude Gil: Interessieren.....WAS? *flips the page, looking for the story*
Proteus454: "hmm..."
Proteus454: *Shakes his head* "Sometimes I wonder what this world is coming to."
Dat Dude Gil: hrmm. warum?
Dat Dude Gil: Why would he do that?
Proteus454: *Shrugs* "I'm sure he had some sort of reason? Turf war? Avenging an insult, something like that?"
Dat Dude Gil: *sighs and shakes his head*
LordHighRikonian: the door opens
LordHighRikonian: a guy in a jogging suit walks in
Proteus454: *Casts a glance in that firection*
Proteus454: "Say, who runs this bar now anyways?"
LordHighRikonian: looks middle aged. Wild hair and beard
Dat Dude Gil: *looks at the entering figure*
InfinHorizon: *Stares at the figure with his most piercing gaze*
LordHighRikonian: he walks over to Proty
Proteus454: "...So, how about those Cascade Chevliers? I hear they havea good team this year..."
LordHighRikonian: "I saw you on the news, buddy"
Proteus454: *Turns to the fellow* "Hello sir."
Proteus454: "Indeed? Thank you. And how may I help you?"
Dat Dude Gil: Schaut, wie er konnte Mühe sein..
LordHighRikonian: "How much you know about... hold on a sec"
LordHighRikonian: He looks at Erik
Proteus454: "Certainly."
LordHighRikonian: "Hey, I didn't see you there! Dude, you totally scammed those pigs"
Dat Dude Gil: *sets the paper down*
LordHighRikonian: "These guys cool?"
InfinHorizon: "I believe you've mistaken me for someone else" *Makes an angry face*
Proteus454: "yes, they can be trusted."
LordHighRikonian: "Hey, relax, no one's looking for me"
Dat Dude Gil: Whew. someone not trying to kill us for once.
Proteus454: "So, what did you wish to ask me about sir? If it's a lawsuit, I offer reasonable rates on consultation of all sorts..."
LordHighRikonian: "Uh, hold on a sec" (to Erik): "Hey, these guys in?"
InfinHorizon: TB: Oh great, he thinks I'm the son of my own counterpart. I'm too old for this garbage
InfinHorizon: "Oh, there about as in the loop as I am"
LordHighRikonian: "All right. If you're good enough for ET, you can be trusted."
LordHighRikonian: "Hey, let's go to a back room. I don't wanna discuss this in public"
Dat Dude Gil: *leans back and looks like he knows what the hell they're talking about*
InfinHorizon: "Call me that even one more time, I'll use your head for a coffee cup"
Proteus454: "...ET, sir?"
Proteus454: "Lead the way." *Follows the guy, a tad more stiffly then necessary*
LordHighRikonian: "Whoah, why so tense, SpaceCase?"
Dat Dude Gil: *follows*
LordHighRikonian: OK, there's a pool room that's not being used
Proteus454: *Gritted teeth* "Tense? Me? Don't be silly..."
InfinHorizon: "Excuse me, but I'm in a really bad mood, and you'd better stay on my good side....or else" *walks to pool room*
Proteus454: *Rounds on the guy as soon as the door is closed* "Alright, how much do you know about me, and what is it you need?"
LordHighRikonian: As the door closes, the old guy looks at proty. "Huh?"
LordHighRikonian: (To Erik): "So, SPaceCase, you gotta tell me, is it on again?"
Proteus454: *Freezes...Realizes what a monumentally gigantic mistake he's just made...* "Er, nothing. Just the drink talking, sorry."
InfinHorizon: "Mr. Ibn-Faldan just wants to hear you confirm our plans. He wants you to tell him the plan instead of me, because if I get caught then he doesn't have to state that I stated the plan. It's just a case of deniability, you know."
LordHighRikonian: "Sheesh, man, you were never this paranoid before"
Proteus454: "...Yes! That's precisely what it is!"
InfinHorizon: "We live in dangerous times. Now stop waisting mine."
LordHighRikonian: (To Proty): "OK, look, I ain't got all the specs. SpaceCase over there always kept the master plans to himself, but we're hitting Transdim"
Dat Dude Gil: gut außer...
Proteus454: *Nods* "I follow."
InfinHorizon: "Who is this space Case?" *Looks at him directly*
LordHighRikonian: "Dude! ET, SpaceCase, those guys hit your head or soemthing?"
Dat Dude Gil: *stnads behind mike and put on his best business face*
Proteus454: "...Ah! I get it!"
InfinHorizon: "Yes and you understand why those names are used, don't you, or don't you understand what "Deniability" means? SO I ask again, who is spacecase?"
Proteus454: "I understand completely, of course."
LordHighRikonian: He gets kinda edgy. "SpaceCase, oh shit! You're some kinda replicant or soemthing!"
LordHighRikonian: He runs off
LordHighRikonian: he's at the door, opening it
InfinHorizon: TB: Being an eco-terrorist ain't hard.
Dat Dude Gil: *runs after to catch him*
InfinHorizon: *Leaps after him*
Proteus454: *Dives to tackl him*
LordHighRikonian: you easily intercept him
LordHighRikonian: the three of you hit him simulateously
InfinHorizon: "Excuse me, but that was very, very rude"
Proteus454: "Sir, sir, please calm down. There are no replicants in here."
InfinHorizon: "I am who I say I am. I'm Erik Tremble"
LordHighRikonian: The guy's eyes are bugged out
Dat Dude Gil: My son, you have some explaining to do, and quickly
Proteus454: "He's right, you know."
Dat Dude Gil: *gets up* or else the operation will be off, do you understand?
LordHighRikonian: The guy's eyes are bugged out
LordHighRikonian: He looks a bit confused
Proteus454: *Picks the fellow up, dusting him off* "Are you alright, sir? I can go and get you a drink if you wish."
InfinHorizon: TB: Times like this, I wish I were Telepathic. Ah well, there's always torture.
LordHighRikonian: it dawns on you that this guy has made chemical imbibement not jsut a lifestyle choice but a reason for living
LordHighRikonian: "If your
Proteus454: Good lord, I might have guessed.
Dat Dude Gil: This is going downhill very fast..
LordHighRikonian: "Wait, hold on"
InfinHorizon: "Guys, could you take him to the back room for a second? I need to get behind the bar."
InfinHorizon: "Oh, and check him for wires, weapons, and the usual"
Dat Dude Gil: Certainly. *extebnds his hand in a peaceful-like getsure*
Proteus454: "Will do, sir." *Begins to do just that*
InfinHorizon: "Bring everything to me"
LordHighRikonian: you find nothing of note, except for a few baggies of various colored powders
InfinHorizon: *Goes behind the bar*
Proteus454: "And what weird and wonderful tearts might be these be, sir?"
LordHighRikonian: "Hey man! That's my shit!"
Proteus454: "And it shall be retruedn to you once we get what we need."
Proteus454: "Or would you like us to tell the nice policemen you own all this?"
LordHighRikonian: "Ha! I knew you were damn replicant pigs!"
Dat Dude Gil: *leans down to the guy*and what is a "replicant?"
LordHighRikonian: the guy faints
Proteus454: "This is getting ridiculous. Why are we talking to him again?"
Dat Dude Gil: I assume he has information about something. what, I don;t know yet.
Dat Dude Gil: *slaps the guys a bit to try and get him to wake up*
Proteus454: "We may just have to wait for Eric to shed some light on this."
LordHighRikonian: you see something weird
LordHighRikonian: a ripple of sorts
LordHighRikonian: it goes to the burnout
Dat Dude Gil: *pulls back* what was that?
LordHighRikonian: it hits teh burnout, and he spontaneously combusts
Proteus454: *Steps away* "What in the..."
Dat Dude Gil: *jumps back*
LordHighRikonian: it vanished, and burnout is now a charred and dying husk
Proteus454: "AARGH!" *Begins to roll him on the ground to put out the flames*
Proteus454: *...Or not*
LordHighRikonian: ".... Transdim,... devil"
LordHighRikonian: then he dies
Proteus454: "...Well...I suppose...I honestly have NO idea what just happened"
Dat Dude Gil: (is anything else one fire that we should be worrid about?)
LordHighRikonian: no
Dat Dude Gil: "That was not, in the least, a good thing."
Proteus454: "Indeed not."
Dat Dude Gil: *goes out to look for eric*
Proteus454: *Stays to inspect the husk and surrouding area for anything that could even possibly be construed as something witha diaphonous resemblance to a clue*
InfinHorizon: *Stagers back* "I'm getting tired of the brain farts"
Dat Dude Gil: "He called us devils.."
Proteus454: "No, he called whatever attacked us devils. Or at least, I suppose he did."
Dat Dude Gil: "well, he saw devils somewhere.." *holds up one of the baggies* "...and I think he's seen a lot of them."
Proteus454: "Well, it wasn't hallucinogens that did THAT to him" *Points at the husk*
Dat Dude Gil: "no, THAT, admittedly, looks like it was real devils.. but why?"
Proteus454: "Good question. Mr. Tremble, have you ever come across anything invisible that causes people to burst into flames for no apparent reason? That seems to be what we were dealing with."
InfinHorizon: "Uhm, surprisingly, no. Why do you ask?"
LordHighRikonian: he's not in the back room withg you guys
LordHighRikonian: oh, guess he came back :)
Dat Dude Gil: (Yeah, I think he came back after I found him :))
Proteus454: "Well, you see..." *Indicates the ex-old guy* "It would appear something of the sort just arrived."
InfinHorizon: Actally, I thought Gill came to see me
InfinHorizon: Look up
LordHighRikonian: oh yeah.
LordHighRikonian: It's amazing what you can miss ina sneezing fit
Proteus454: And I subsequently assumed that tremble had been led back into the room.
Dat Dude Gil: (hehe isn;'t continutity such a slippery thing? :))
Proteus454: Indeed
InfinHorizon: (Yeah, we're a regular Marvel comics)
Dat Dude Gil: ( i don't think we're quite that bad yet :))
InfinHorizon: *Mixing chemicals* "So, how is the old guy?" *To Gill*
Dat Dude Gil: Somewhere between dead and more dead.
Dat Dude Gil: I think you need to come take a look.
InfinHorizon: "You're kidding? What did you do?"
Dat Dude Gil: We didn't do anything! he just.. burnt up...
InfinHorizon: "As in, to a crisp? Spontaneous human combustion? Wonderful." *Not smiling*
Dat Dude Gil: Yes, to a crisp. he said something about devils before he died.
InfinHorizon: "Hmm....This seems familar...."
Dat Dude Gil: *shakes his head* This country get weirder by the day.
InfinHorizon: *Stops mixing, and goes to the back room*
Dat Dude Gil: *goes back with Eric*
LordHighRikonian: as you go back there, a light wind whips up
LordHighRikonian: the corpse sits up
Proteus454: *Looks up from his search to see teh corpse sitting up* "...Oh dear..."
LordHighRikonian: "Well well, imagien seeing you here! Hahahahahahaha!"
LordHighRikonian: then it collapses again
Proteus454: *Stares, rubs his eyes and then looks again* "Something must be wrong with my processors...I need to trance more often..."
Dat Dude Gil: Om mani padme hum Om mani padme hum... "What, was that?"
InfinHorizon: *Takes note of what Ibn-Fadlan just said*
Dat Dude Gil: *goes over to the corpse for a closer look*
LordHighRikonian: the corpse crumbles at your touch
Proteus454: "This is very interesting...Convoluted, but interesting nonetheless."
Dat Dude Gil: iOmmanipadmehumommanipad*stands back* well, you see something new everyday..
Proteus454: "I can second that"
InfinHorizon: "OK, we need answers, and I'm tired of having strange things happen here. Agreed?"
Dat Dude Gil: (er, that really quick mantra was supposed to be TBed -_-)
Proteus454: "Most definitely"
Dat Dude Gil: That's what I've wanted from the start...
Dat Dude Gil: Well, have you found anything, Mr. Fadlan?
InfinHorizon: "I have a plan...." *Big smile stretches the width of his face like a sinister python*
Proteus454: "I am open to suggestions, Mr. Tremble"
Dat Dude Gil: What's that? *walks over to the small table near the door*
Dat Dude Gil: *picks up something white and square*.. It's an envelope. *opens it*
InfinHorizon: *Takes a seat to the nearest table* "We're going to break in to Transdim"
Proteus454: "You believe they have the answers we all seek?"
Dat Dude Gil: hrmm.. nothing inside.. *flips it over, about to chuck it* Hey.. waitaminute..
Dat Dude Gil: umm. Guys? have any of you heard of "the warehouse?"
InfinHorizon: "Not all, but a few"
InfinHorizon: *looks at Hamoi* "What are you talking about?"
Proteus454: "A warehouse, you say?"
Dat Dude Gil: *hands the envelope to Eric* Take a look.
InfinHorizon: *looks at the envelope*
Dat Dude Gil: (it's an old phoen bill envelope. has an address and "the Warehouse" written on it)
InfinHorizon: "On the other hand, let's go check out this "warehouse". Anyone feel like tagging along?"
Proteus454: "Certainly I shall."
InfinHorizon: *To Michael* "Good, you drive."
Dat Dude Gil: "Meybe there are some answers, let's go."
InfinHorizon: "Park us about 2 blocks away from the address"
LordHighRikonian: OK. YOu drive to the industrial part of town, about two blocks from the address
LordHighRikonian: It is in fact a warehouse
Proteus454: Surprise, surprise
Proteus454: "So, how shall we approach?"
Dat Dude Gil: wow. I never would have expected something called the warehouse to BE a warehouse, not in this city.
LordHighRikonian: Well, jsut wanted you to know it wasn't a club called the Warehouse
InfinHorizon: "I'm going up top" *Fires his grappler at the roof top* "Be back once I've scouted. If I'm not back in five, call the cops, or come save me"
Dat Dude Gil: (that's EXATLy what I was referring to :))
Dat Dude Gil: *Waits*
Proteus454: "...So, a game of poker while we wait?"
InfinHorizon: *Gets to the roof, and makes his way to the Warehouse*
Dat Dude Gil: "......poker?"
Proteus454: "Yes, a game of chance played with these cardboard representations. You see, I deal you five cards and..." *Goes on*
Dat Dude Gil: *listens intenly, following his exapmle, blahblahblah*
Dat Dude Gil: Sauger...
InfinHorizon: *Leaps from the roof, does a somersault with half turn off the a street light and lands next to the others* "Miss me?"
Dat Dude Gil: A little. *looks ta his cards* say, what does four kings mean?
Proteus454: "...It meands that I fold, damn you eyes."
Proteus454: "See anything, Eric? May I call you Eric?"
InfinHorizon: "Sure, calle me Erik, and yes, I saw some people watching a film of some sort. Hippee looks. I suggest we approach with caution, I can sneek in without much notice, can you do the same?"
Proteus454: *Smiles* "I have my own little talents, Erik."
Dat Dude Gil: "I've never tried, but I'm sure i can"
InfinHorizon: "Then let's go" *Takes out his dart pistol, and hits setting 1*
LordHighRikonian: ok. there's a large loading door, and a smaller normal door
Dat Dude Gil: So how do we move in?
LordHighRikonian: both are closed
InfinHorizon: *Goes to nearest door, passes through it, and unlocks it and opens it* "This way"
Proteus454: *Sheds his jacket, tie, cufflinks and all non-essentials* "I suggest a diversion. You two are undoubtedly more stealthy then I am. I go in through the loading dorr, and you two can take the smaller..."
Proteus454: "...Or you could do that. That works very well also."
Dat Dude Gil: omaniepadmehumom *follows*
LordHighRikonian: OK, once inside, you hear the hippie guy talking
InfinHorizon: *Gets out pistol*
InfinHorizon: *Looks at the hippee guy, and see if he looks familiar*
LordHighRikonian: "...-ensional pollution man. I mean they say it's like free power"
Proteus454: *Surreptitiously converts his forearms to scythe-like blades*
Dat Dude Gil: *uts a hand on eric's shoulder, and whispers* "let's try to abvoid senseless violence, shall we?"
LordHighRikonian: "But it's gonna like crack the doors, man. We need to hit it, man!"
Proteus454: *Whispering* "Oh, I plan to as well. But they don't need to know that JUST yet."
InfinHorizon: "It's Tranquilizers"\
LordHighRikonian: BTW, there is a cielign high row of boxes between you and them
LordHighRikonian: you can see them, but are not obviously visible to them
InfinHorizon: "These look like explosives to you."
Proteus454: *As an afterthought, goes with heavy meatllic maces instead of scythes*
LordHighRikonian: a large muscular guy with a shaved head stands up. "How are we supposed to do that? They killed Erik, and no offense, but the rest of you guys don't know shit"
Proteus454: *Cocks an eyebrow at Erik, but says nothing*
InfinHorizon: "Well, think I should try and pass myself off as their leader?"
InfinHorizon: "See if it works this time?"
Proteus454: "What can we lose?"
InfinHorizon: "The element of surprise"
Dat Dude Gil: "you could try, at least it it'll make a good distraction if myself and mike stay hidden"
Proteus454: "Agreed"
Proteus454: "On both counts"
InfinHorizon: "Very well. Move to somewhere away from me, then I'll enter"
Dat Dude Gil: *creeps away from erik*
InfinHorizon: "you too Michael"
Proteus454: "Understood." *Does so*
InfinHorizon: *Once they've gone, I walk down the nearest aisle* "Need I quote Mark Twain on the state of my demise?"
LordHighRikonian: bald guy: "OK, now I can see this plan working"
LordHighRikonian: bald guy: "That is, if we had one. Yo, SpaceCase, good to have you back, Rainbow over there is a real shitty leader"
LordHighRikonian: ok, 10 minute warning here
InfinHorizon: *Walks to center stage* "And what did I tell you guys about rushing into our plans? Christ, I nearly got fragged cause of your bungling, Rainbow"
LordHighRikonian: hippie guy: "Hey, man, sorry, man. But Leon said he saw you fall into the, uh, the vortex thingie"
LordHighRikonian: "How'd you survive that, man?"
InfinHorizon: "And we just trust Leon, don't we?"
LordHighRikonian: bald guy: "See, I told you Leon was on too much shit!"
InfinHorizon: "Takes more to take me than those Transdim-bulbs!"
Dat Dude Gil: om mani padme hum.. ome mani padme hum..
Proteus454: *Crouching as he goes, moves as steathily as possible into a position where he can "Leap into action" if such a feat is required*
LordHighRikonian: bald guy: "So, ET, what's the plan?"
Proteus454: hings seem to be going well. Now it's just a question of whether he can feed this line to them long enough to learn anything or not.
Dat Dude Gil: *does the same*
InfinHorizon: "Because of the current heat, I want all plans on hold for 2 days. We meet back here at 2100, and make sure we get the plan right this time. Right, Rainbow?" *Looks at the hippee*
LordHighRikonian: Rainbow looks down
Dat Dude Gil: *Preferably in a different spot from proty, other side of the building, if possible*
InfinHorizon: "Everyone make sure there homework is done. Dismissed."
LordHighRikonian: Rainbow: "Oh hey, I did get us a new boat. This one's real sweet too"
Proteus454: Hmm...So far, so good.
InfinHorizon: "I'll want to see it, later. I'm meeting with the muscle that got me out of Transdim after Leon chickened on me. I'll see you in 2, and we'll have a talk, Rainbow."
LordHighRikonian: ok.
LordHighRikonian: same Bat Tiem
LordHighRikonian: Same Bat Channel;
InfinHorizon: Same bat peril
