>>24588854(Thank you, Now read your fate!)"Let's get killin'! Like some of you are doing now!"
>>24588854Thorough testing suggests that my ID will be BLUE.>>24588867... what the heck? Hacking? /votekick?
>>24588867>Instantly proving him wrong, eh, Vector?
>>24588867>Man was caught off guard, staring into the distance because some melancholic jazz was playing in the background. >>24588873>ALMOST blue, eh? >Also RIP, we got spawncamped.
>>24588867>We call this one in the trade...>A pineapple surprise.
>>24588867So this is my fate... I'll accept it...>>24588876>She warned you, though. Besides trying to shoot a Gensokyo fairy is unfair due to the grazing skills.
>>24588867"Team leaders are dying left and right! Kinda fun to watch!""Nice job failing your teams dumbass!"
>>24588881>ALMOSTUhm, ackshually?
>>24588867Look at that gross human walking around. We should get rid of it.>>24588887Found you!
>>24588887karma has been restored
>>24588834Hwah->The only thing more disconcerting than her allies...>>24588867>>24588886>Was the enemy trying to kill her! WAIT!?>Shrieked the fairy of light, who would blast her target with the brunt of a danmaku charge! Their mechanical nature ensured the natural energy struck for massive damage.T-this is...a mess...
>>24588887I'm quite sure I was here first...and aren't you, aren't-a-fairy?
>>24588901That's CLEARLY turquoise, mister. But yeah, you got a shade of blue lol. Better than my sickly purple t.bh.
>>24588887>Any further contention on who would lead would be cut short - literally, Luna Child left in bloody pieces by an enemy team!
>>24588887"Ya know, that masked guy is kinda winning for the rest of his useless team. Look at him! Winning another fight!" "Yeah, nice gun ya got there. Shame it didn't do ANYTHING for ya! Loser!"(I should have put him in the fae team. It just dawned on me now.)
>>24589054I mean, I do want to be honest and true about this: it's R: 138, G: 214, and B: 185. By definition, even if it matches as a tint of "mint blue" or "turquoise" (what are you smoking anyway? I don't know anything that kills color vision like that...), it's actually green.So I was wrong. But I'm going to go with what was right.Nice lavender, though.>>24589063Betting on Kopaka.
>>24588867>>24588873>The last thing you see before the world goes funky.>>24588887>Funky (bad.)>>24589063>And you...
>>24588886>We're not getting in to powerscaling arguments about danmaku to actual bullet speeds!>...Also, you weren't trying to shoot her, presumably, it was a flamethrower....>>24588887>>24589063>But you will be avenged!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_AUeCPrM9gThat'll teach you!
>>24589063>>24589084Killed with a big stick!?! My petard is hoisted!
>>24588887>
>>24589066In our hearts and minds, it WILL be blue then. Even if the facts are against us here as it were. Still think the lavender isn't my thing but thanks lol.
>>24589063"She gets one kill and dies like a dumbass.... HA!""Seems like that useless human kid ain't that useless after all! Avenging his weak leader! Good on ya! Shame robot's sword was useless. DIBS!"
>>24589063>Hi.>>24589095>Even the pineapples had better things to do, than entertain conflict...
>>24589095>Statistically-speaking, there's almost certainly no way that that could possibly hurt him, let alone kill!Ah, dammit!>...But that doesn't mean it can't dislodge his head from his shoulders and make him scramble out of the battlefield to run after it!Not again!
>>24589095>Message to Kopaka from the UNSC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8cgq2tSBFw
>>24588906>>24589095>Vector's sensors fill with error and warning messages but she can't bother to even care about the "pain" she feels due to the danmaku that pierced her body. You should rejoice tht you attacked one of the few Griffin Dolls that wouldn't care about this kind of damage on their frame.>It's doubtful the maggots would care about a broken machine...>>24589087>Details, little insignificant details, as long as it does the work...
>>24589095"Well that guy sucks. Idiot! Dying to your own mistakes! Take notes on how unggoy do things!""Littler human fights another Little human! Also, little human is all alone! Surrounded by three! Think little human can come out on top?!"
>>24589108>There wasn't much rejoicing for dead fairies, who at best hoped her dress wasn't too ruined in the after-battle revival...>>24589110>Luna Child's postmortem recommendation, was that leaders liked to yak a lot.
>>24589110>S'cool.
>>24589110>Kopaka did not in fact avenge the UNSC...
>>24589089>Speaking of hoisting->>24589095>Useful in a pitched battle, natch.>>24589110>All Hiro would get in return from his teammate was a harsh breathing noise from beneath what appeared to be a mask.
>>24589110"C'mon... Did ya really expect that little human to stand a chance... Are you stupid or something!?""Leave it up to the REAL powerhouse of that team of freaks! Rest of you were useless! That freak should have been your leader!">>24589106"Should I do it? I'mma do it""HAHAHAHAH!!"
>>24589110>>24589115>With some luck the repair costs of the Doll's frame wouldn't be too steep.
>>24589127>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taIQBilx4L0>VIP=secured. Mission accomplished.
>>24589084Weird Slenderman.>>24589094Okay, blue crew here we go.Night to you, blessed night to you all, aufweidersehen until later.
>>24589127Holy shit, I actually survived for once?!
>>24589110>Swatted like a fly.
>>24589127"Give it up for the team of freaks! With there remaining members!""Hey useless human kid! Stop crying already, you're a failure we know it already! Give thanks to the freak that saved your team while your crying!">>24589140"Yep! Now stop crying!">>24589135"VIP was the Luna Child, the rest of ya... Eh, just cannon fodder that got lucky."
>>24589127>Last place, the ODST scowling under his helmet. Especially when that punkass, Glibnub, laughed at him! Why I aughta...! >Congrats and thanks for the game lol. >>24589137>Yee. >And goodnight to you too man, nice to have you with us for a bit.
>>24589127>>24589135>>24589140>>24589145>>24589146>Momentarily taken refuge amidst a flock of those unalike payed off for the wayward Pineapple Cirno, who took these thinning predatory ranks as an opportunity to resume their quest rejoining their true herd, quietly thanking those responsible for the night's survival.
>>24589146I hate to said I told you, but the facts have backed my words...>Thank you for the game and congratulations Team Fairy!
>>24589146>She wouldn't had felt particularly vippy this evening.>Thank you.
"Yeah.Yeah""You losers know the program. Tune into Glibnub’s free broadcasting! COLD HARD TRUTHS and existential dread, endless suffering for your meaningless lives and my viewing pleasure from the safety of this booth!"(Thanks for playing y'all)>>24589149"Sorry can't heat ya over you dying! And from the safety of this phantom!">>24589158"Stop being a downer. Ain't my fault ya did bad!">>24589156>>24589162(If ya want a card, I'll need full body images from each member. Preferably with transparent backgrounds.)
>>24589172Were it so easy...>>24589104>>24589149>Now then, shall we resume our little trip to space?
>>24589146Kek I came in second. Thanks for hosting
>>24589146Well done, well done.Thank you for the game.
>>24589186Yeah I'm good to go! You were next in the turn order here: https://archive.palanq.win/bant/thread/24558034/#24559877
>>24589172>Try this.
(Switching to mobile)>>24589186"Stop being lame!" "Bye now!">>24589189"Red rope thing keeps getting mad every time ya lose. Stop sucking!"(Thanks for playing!)>>24589193"Yeah.... Ya welcome!"(Thanks for playing. Also, if you have a full body image of this fae, preferable with a transparent background. I'd appreciate)
>>24589172>Adequate?
>>24589186>Now that I'm back home and saw this, sure, by all means.
>>24589205>>24589216Thank you, in a few days I'll have something for you and the rest of the fae. Now I wait for the others to post there'sAnd I guess I'll wait for whoever still has sessions on hold with my monsters and the Yee-haw.
>>24589204>>24589218>In that case...https://archive.palanq.win/bant/thread/24558034/#24559862https://archive.palanq.win/bant/thread/24558034/#24559877Guess it's nice to be unopposed in the air, huh? If an incident like the one in Ireland happened again I doubt we would run with the same issues we had back then!>Not to mention there was more UNSC presence in the Arena alongside new allies all over the world. Yet the enemies keep growing as well.I hope I can always be of help to you guys and to you too. I'm sure your gut feeling is correct!>IRyS looks at Yeon for a moment.
>>24589208>thhis should work
>>24589208>Bazinga.
>>24589218>>24559877>>24589236>The Marine SNCO gave a pleased hum and a nod to both IRyS and Yeon. (MRN #1) I get that. Don't fancy taking flak anytime or anywhere if it can be avoided. (MRN #4) I heard about Ireland... (MRN #1) We all have really. Gotta stay briefed on what's going on and all. We're now more than ever ready to deal with things going forward. >Or as best the UNSC could by themselves and their allies. Had to considering the pending threats they faced. >The nameless sergeant gave a nod to the two women, a small smile tugging at his features. (MRN #1) We'll keep doing our best to vindicate those feelings then Yeon. >With that said, the D79H kept to its uneventful flight into the stars, the dropship soon coming into forward visual with its mothership. (CRW CHF) Alright ladies and gentlemen, we're about to dock with the Conceptualized Awe shortly. Standby.
(On Mobile)>>24589245>>24589280Got them. Thanks. Now that leaves Hiro Back to lurking, hit me up whoever has ArrPee left on hold
>>24589287>>24589236>Yeon has no idea what "flak" is, but she's not going to point that out.Ireland...?>She must be new. Like, new-new.>Well, being in visual range doesn't mean too much to her....Are all of your ships so audaciously named?
>>24589287>Always be ready for the unthinkable and the inevitable, even if it looks far away.Alright, standing by!>IRyS looks excited to see the ship, she looks at Yeon as she asks regarding the "old" battlefield of one of the Arena's most deadliest conflicts to date.An island in Europe, which is a continent. Don't ask me how it ended up shattered and with everyone seeking to take a piece of it.>She smiles slightly regarding her second question.Well you better get used to it, big guns don't carry the same weight without a cool name!
>>24589331>Only that with us both and Gordon, I think.
>>24589342>>24589381>Ignorance was bliss after all, and the leathernecks and Navy flyers were none the wiser themselves on Yeon not knowing what AA was still. >As the dropship flew forward for a dock in the expansive hangar of the massive vessel, the crew chief gave IRyS a thumbs up. The Marine sergeant then offered his two Credits on what the nephilim had to say.(MRN #1) Pretty much what our friend here said, Yeon. But what really matters in the end was that the UNSC restored order together with others. >A nod to IRyS. (MRN #1) Our colorful friend here included was a part of that. (MRN #5) Don't forget that Snake guy too, sarge. (MRN #6) Or the Fairies as well. Hmm, I think I heard they had some big gold bloke helping them out too for that matter that really laid the pain down at the end as well. >To all of that the Marine NCO gave a nod. (MRN #1) Sounds about right, it being a group effort and what have you. >And once again, IRyS was right on the money, the leader of this lot flashing her a grin. (MRN #1) Too true, miss. And as the biggest warship here in the Arena now with the UNSC, she's got to have a solid name! >Speaking of which, the dropship had fully entered into the hangar of the Awe. After a few more moments of maneuvering inside the spacious enough space, she came to a setdown with a noisy and jarring CLANK. The rear hatch opened up soon after, the crimson interior of the Pelican giving way for the brighter whites of the hangar. >The crew chief turned to face the Marines and their guests with a nod as he stepped aside. (CRW CHF) Welp, here we are: end of the line. I hope you enjoyed your flight, brief and uneventful as it was. These fine leathernecks will be your escorts going forward as well from what I've been told. >He'd turn to face the First Marine with a slight smirk. (CRW CHF) You keep treating them well, you hear? Orders come from higher up at that. (MRN #1) Don't worry, I'll hold their hands if I have to.
>>24589331>>24589383>Yeah, we've still got that CoD zombies thing going on. Got a reply at the ready too if you're both up for it!
>>24589477>>24589383>The expression crossing her face at the elaboration seems almost regretful. Or perhaps pity. Well, she asked. It's on her for not fancying the notion of such large-scale conflict.Yeon's head angles to the side a little at the mention of "colorful". Whoops.Quite the expression of confidence.>She flinches at the sudden stop of the dropship, turning her head towards the ramp before the chief pipes up.There was novelty to this, I assure you.>Speaking of big warships, meanwhile, the Macross Gigasion is...>Uh...>Doing side quests.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnDtvZXYHgE>Probably like that, but with more idols.
>>24588854This is so fucking stupid...what could she possibly need from here that she doesn't have already? A new PC?>Harlyn growls as she sneaks around the halls of the large campus, looking down at texts from her "doctor"."I need new parts for the machines downstairs! Emil spilled soda on one of the consoles. If you bring some back we have a reward for you! Okaythxbyyyye. -E">Harlyn sighs and puts the phone away.Better be a good fucking reward...
>>24589477>>24589522Damn right. It was a honor to have been fighting in Ireland on your side, despite what happened halfway through.>IRyS' joyful expression slightly changes at the mention of "Snake", as an unpleasant memories appears on her head.Oh right, there was that mercenary leader and his second in command, I didn't liked her at all, she was a rude girl and was always wearing that red suit, she was literally a red target for everyone to see!>It seems IRyS doesn't have much fond memories of a certain shrine maiden aiding the Diamond Dogs...I didn't minded the fairies that much, nor I remember much of that gold bloke thing. Guess they were more peaceful compared to the ones we had to fight...>The Fairies and the DDs were definitely the lesser evils of the Emerald Isle compared to the other ones.>A brief shake as the Pelican lands before the rear hatch opens, signaling their arrival to the Conceptualized Awe. IRyS takes a deep breath as she looks at the crew chief and his Marines. She's still a bit nervous regarding what is yet to come.Thank you. I'll make sure to give a 5 star rating on Uber Space! And hope you're not tired of novelties, I'm certain there's more to come.
>>24589331This one good?
>>24588854>Wandering amidst these scholars was one particularly vertically-challenged...student? Someone who at least made an air of belonging, hanging close to the crowds of her fellows to infiltrate the institute's interior halls as she clutched an antique-looking messenger bag, periodically scanning the halls for labels or obvious maps.Place like this should have a Library, one that'll tell me a think or two about what's happening here...Or at least a new cookbook to borrow.>She'd adjust a white beret over where it would junction to a pair of black ribbons. It was unclear if the ribbons were affixed to the hat or her thoroughly-curly golden hair.
>>24589575Where the hell do they keep the spare computer parts in this dump...?>Harlyn growls as she turns a corner, nearly bumping into the girl as she does. JESUS. Watch where you're going you->She squints, looking the girl over....you don't look like an MIT student.
>>24589522>>24589547>It was assuredly a just cause and fought by noble men and women against various scum and villainy that sought to bring ruin to Ireland. >And speaking of causes, the UNSC *was* still on the lookout for a certain pilot. Somewhere out there in the depths of the Arena or space itself. >For now though, the Marine sergeant lead the way forward off of the Pelican along with the other troopers that had accompanied him, the Mantis mech being left behind. The crew chief offered the girls one last word and wave. (CRW CHF) Aye, I'm happy to hear that. You two take care now! >With that said it was now on the NCO to treat them, the man giving IRyS a knowing nod. (MRN #1) Don't know too much myself either on Snake's XO or the gold guy, but I have to wonder if we'll see them again here in the Arena. Haven't heard much of them since the Ireland campaign concluded. But if you want to fill us in on more, I'm sure ONI would appreciate it for one thing. >A pause as the grunt kept walking forward with his guests. (MRN #1) We'll be heading for the ship's mess hall first to get you two fed if you want. When was the last time you two had a decent meal anyway? >Decent was relative, but surely UNSC shipborne rations would be adequate enough to satisfy. >The medic among them also piped up as he looked Yeon over with a bit of lingering concern. (MRN #3) I still want to remind you that our offer to treat your blindness stands if you want.
>>24589676Hup!?>The demure girl would almost trip out of her heels in the evasion, landing on a palm before slowly righting.I-I'm allowed to be here part time as part of an exchange program.>She would come up on the spot, taking a moment to process who she was addressing as she locked a set of matchingly-golden eyes with one-scaly individual. You wouldn't happen to know the way to literary wing?>Who she would in turn attempt to play off as ordinary in spite of the obvious incongruity with anything or anyone around them.>This particular student wore something that suggested the uniform of some manner of private or religious school. Smelled of tree sap and coffee.
>>24589677>>24589547>Once she gets out of continue hell, for sure.>Yeon bows to the chief before they depart.These are new names to me. I have encountered very little since I came here, I am afraid. Ah...I have...>She frowns....Only sated myself on some scraps of fruit and the like, and water I needed purify, since I have come here.>And then averts her "gaze" to the floor."I...choose to believe I was granted this ability for a reason. I will not risk rejecting it so casually. But thank you, all the same.
>>24589705>>24589677I wouldn't be surprised if they wanted to law low after what happened there, the events in New York definitely helped to cover their tracks. Either way I'll be glad to tell all I know.>One issue traded by another, a bigger one given the extension of G-Corporation around the globe. And regarding creating new issues, that choice of words coming from the nephilim might give her a bit of a headache later one.A few hours ago, actually. But I wouldn't mine taking some...>After all she might've consumed a bit more of her fair share back in Ireland before the arrival of the bulk of the UNSC to the strife, much to the Chief's chagrin.>Seeing theavertion of Yeon to stare at the floor of the ship, the nephilim slightly extends her arm at her.Do you need some help to get to the mess hall? I'd hate to see you slip or something worse.
>>24589699>Sounds like bullshit but she'll believe it.Oh I see, so if you're here part time, you know where some of the->She suddenly asks where the literary wing is, the lizard staring at her before letting out a sigh.I don't actually. I'm here to...fix some computers but they didn't bother telling ME where they were either. How abouuuuut we look together?
>>24589773>"Computer." For a near-minute, the girl would pause and stare at the apparent contractor as if she had spoken to her in a foreign language, fumbling with her bag to procure a set of retro reading glasses.I figured that if anyone would know, it would be the librarian, since they're in charge of...recording knowledge. I could ask them when I find it.>Even if the student appeared somewhat eccentric versus the locale, she was much more likely to elect a positive response from anyone native versus the other visitor, wouldn't she agree?
>>24589705>>24589763>Marine One grunted in affirmation at IRyS. (MRN #1) Makes sense to me miss. I also heard New York was some seriously nasty business. >G-Corp was just *one* concern then and now the UNSC had to deal with here in the Arena after all. Even with reinforcements, they were according to ONI analysts still outnumbered by the opfor! >All the more reason to keep and maintain allies here like IRyS and her latest friend. The sergeant frowned in particular at Yeon. (MRN #1) Alright, that's not gonna cut it then. We're getting you something to eat, pronto. (MRN #2) I heard they're serving spaghetti and meatballs in the mess today, so that should be nice, right? (MRN #1) Beats the usual crap we have to make do with out in the field. >Plenty to go around too, the Marine SNCO leading the way forward to the galley, the smell of cooking food soon filling the air. >The Third Marine meanwhile was a bit perturbed with Yeon, the medic speaking slowly. (MRN #3) Well... if you're sure Yeon... >Shaking his head and muttering to himself, he addressed IRyS next. (MRN #3) I think she'll be fine to give the lady a vote of confidence. Hell, she's made it this far without much issue. >Even if he felt she could benefit from some eye surgery! >In any case the group arrived at the mess hall soon enough, it being a bustle of activity as Marines, soldiers, and sailors alike lined up to get served food. The sergeant grunted again, at least glad it wasn't *too* busy at the moment. They wouldn't have to wait long then to get served some grub, the man continuing to lead the way forward. (MRN #1) Right, let's get in line then.
>>24589802>Harlyn seems a bit hesitant about going directly to the staff, but she might be able to bullshit an excuse for her presence here with this girl accompanying her.You know what? That's a very good point. How about you lead the way and I'll follow?
>>24589763>>24589817>More unfamiliar names, more unfamiliar things. This world may well be more in strife than her own.I am sure it is edible.>She's too Fantasy Korean to know what that dish is.And please, do not worry overmuch on my part. I manage myself well enough.>The noise is a curiosity, the smell moreso. Yeon's way of taking it in is in no small part a feat in listening, with the way she turns her head to focus in on certain noises, even if she allegedly sees the world otherwise.I hope I am not burdening you with this....
>>24589854>The student would murmur a "Y-yeah..." in resignation of the situation she had practically crashed herself beside. If nothing else, anyone who came upon them would immediately fixate on the lizard...youkai? Over herself. >Luckily, enough wandering would herd the both of them into the central dome of the facility which just-so-happened to be a central library system: the university's heart!>Juxtaposition against neoclassical architecture extending from column to window would be desk upon desk of workstation, to each crowned a wide terminal resembling a flat-screen television.
>>24589854>>24589906Is this really the place? I thought there'd be bookshelves...>Crinkling her mouth into a chestnut shape, the student stared at a prominent plaque denoting this place the "MIT Barker Engineering Library," failing to grasp the fact she stood in an age of digital media where what she sought likely lay behind the terminals in their wake. >Without further prompting, she'd go bother one of what she assumed to be an attendant, explaining their predicament before the elephant in the room settled inside.
>>24589817>>24589904Alright, if you need any help let me know.>If they managed to corner all their enemies and deny them any strategic alliances the better, that way the killing blow could be delivered more swiftly.Oh, that sounds tasty, count me in!>If she was a certain god-eyed pink panther you better pray the spaghetti wasn't broken before being cooked, but thankfully IRyS isn't so strict with italian food. And speaking of which the smell would soon make its way to IRyS' nose, causing her appetite to grow.>But before she could think on giving a bite to the italian dish the Third Marine speaks to her regarding Yeon. She might or might not have listened their brief exchange of words.I'm sure she's fine overall, so count me in regarding that vote.>With that out of the way IRyS looks at Yeon as she mentions spaghetti being "edible". Again, be glad this isn't Raora.And quite delicious too. I think you might like it. >I believe this is a good place to stop for now. Thank you once again for the RP and I hope to see you soon!
>>24589906>>24589912Makes sense that they'd just put all their shit on computers...speaking of computers though...>Harlyn smirks as she lets the girl talk to the person at the front desk, examining the machines and taking pictures to send to her mysterious benefactor.
>>24588854>A knight, though seeming injured, rose to her feet from a crouching position. She could only afford her surroundings the briefest of glances before she would wince under the weight of her strange new situation. She placed a hand over her wounded chest, each plate of metal armor providing a resounding clank or clatter following every movement she made.Troublesome...>She thought to herself, though she seemed not to be referring to her wounds. >Summoning her resolve again, she looked to her surroundings once more to try and orient herself. Wasn't there anyone else in the world around?
>>24589952>Technically just access points connecting to the actual computers somewhere further inside of the complex; the wide screens and their accompanying accessories ended in a series of snaking cables which dug into the floor; with the sorts of people they were allowing into these universities these days, you could never be too open with your RAM...>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_BU5hR9gXE>After several additional minutes of exchange, the student would come back to the lizard person in order to divulge.T-they wanted to know which particular computers you meant. There's the- there's a whole bunch...>From the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, to the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and Educational Computing Facility, MIT had a lot of different servers, and that wasn't counting the library's own cluster network!
>>24589977Uhhh hang on...I'm texting the...professor now.>She types this into her phone, narrowing her eyes at the screen before a bunch of nerd shit she doesn't care about comes back in response....need to fix a console apparently. Some moron spilled something on it. I need to go grab a replacement.>She shows the girl the long paragraph she was just sent. She even had to expand it to read the rest.If they know where this shit is I can deal with it.
>>24589913>Nonzero chance we lost Gordon anyhow.>Good to see you around more.
>>24589977(Oops, the second instance of "Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory" was meant to be "Electrical Engineering and Computer Science!">>24590062>The visiting student resumed discussions with the faculty, stating what the lizard told her ad-verbatim. The staff...>0; Were asking for identification! Crud!>1-3; Had no recollection of any consoles broken within their premise.>4-6; Pointed out they had a few broken work stations throughout the main complex.>7; Had a console matching that description in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science building (no. 34.)>8; Had a console matching that description in the Schwarzman College of Computing building (no. 45.)>9; Had a console matching that description in the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory building (no. 32.)
>>24590062>>24590105>And back to the lizard.Do you know what the word "Athena Cluster" means? They said there are a few in need of servicing around wings two, eight, and thirty-three?>Not as fancy as any of the main lab servers, but they were—electronic.I asked for a map and they told me about this thing called an "ap". I um...
>>24590105>>24590117>Harlyn texts her "friend" again, and eventually gets a response. Yeah that'll work. >What's an App?Of course they use a fucking app for that...lazy nerds can't just use paper like normal ones...>She fiddles with her phone, struggling with the app and making up credentials on the fly until she gets it working to some extent....okay, I think I have a better idea of where I need to go at least. Let's go.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6GPMiak2Pg>Here is your "Traveling with Harlyn" theme for today.
>>24590166>Lo-fi...Oh? I thought- the place I'm looking for is apparently called the "Aga Khan Documentation Center." I figured I could get to it by direction, instead of watching you um- repair...
>>24590180Aw you wanna split up already? Is my charming personality too much for you?>It's probably the smell.Well, you didn't even know what an app is so you probably won't be able to help me stea- repair the console...
>>24589971>One blue lady-warrior in blue and silver with blonde hair and a prominent ahoge? Why stop there when we can make it two.>Footsteps, slow and ponderous, also clacking with every step, but probably quieter, coming down one way of the cross-section headed the other party's way.>...This one's expression is unreadable, but she's not paying too much attention to her surroundings besides reading a thing hung up along a wall in what you could probably call idle curiosity.
>>24590192I wanted to get there to check out the things I wanted before the place goes away...I mean, the building closes. Probably be best if we did our tasks separately...>Odds are this apparent student, or whatever type of interloper she was had already discerned the lizard's intentions, and was intending to do something mischievous herself.
>>24590208>The knight of knights saw that the stranger was armed, and wishing to make it known that she was as well, drew her own blade. Although she pulled it from no sheathe in a traditional sense - instead she extended an armored gauntlet, and her blade appeared in her hands. Where gleaming steel should be in hand, the wind instead bustled around it's shape like a tempest, concealing it's appearance. The uproarious wind caused the injured knight's dress to billow, and her hair to do the same in turn.Hail. I ask of you, stranger, are you my friend or are you my enemy? If you are not one, then I must impose of you to be the other for now.
>>24590254>Careful, now. Hers' is bigger.>It's the wind that gets the attention, though. Maybe the dress isn't just for show considering she pretty quickly snaps focus over to whatever that commotion was, a hand starting to reach for the weapon on her back, before she pauses to consider the words. And the looks. She almost seemed to recognize the garb, but decides she doesn't.>A...pretty man? Boyish woman? Whatever. Mel doesn't care. Instead of actually grasping the handle of her weapon, she lowers the hand and offers it out.No quarrel from me. Whatever that is, put it away. You're in no condition to fight.
>>24590310You are making a hasty assessment. As long as there is still air in my lungs, then the latter will never be true.>She said with a slight smile, her words almost as solemn as to have come from a statue, much less the injured body that spoke them so regally. But the words of both carried truth, and upon seeing the stranger with no desire to draw her weapon, Saber dismissed the invisible air along with her own blade.>And breathing out an exhale that matched the dispelled gale of wind, she brought her arm to cover her chest again.These are not the wounds of one who has lost a battle and is bound to death. But I require rest... and it seems one troublesome wizard has brought me to the strangest place to do it. Is there a safe dwelling nearby?
>>24590350>Such bravado. She's somewhere between being jealous or embarrassed for her, but she decides not to comment about it either way. She will, however, very briefly sigh over it.I think the place was abandoned recently. I haven't seen anyone since I came in.>She gestures off in a direction.I think this is some sort of campus. I walked past another building...it called itself a "Health" building. It might be a hospital.
>>24590402>The knight heaved another heavy breath, each movement feeling heavier than the last. She cast her gaze across the campus, and then closed her eyes.That will be fine -- No, I will not make it that far. I will rest here, my wounds will close on their own.>She leaned her back against the side of the main building, her crimson blood staining the marble white.Troublesome...>She repeated, again.
>>24590437....>The less ornate one here's eyes narrow. She checks a bag at her sides, and pulls put an empty bottle with a scowl before putting it away, and looks the knight square in the eyes, then to the armor.>She turns around, walking off with a sense of urgency at a brisk walk. A jog. A run. She leaves line of sight at a dead sprint.>Cone a few minutes later, she returns with what we would recognize as a first aid kit at the same sprint, breathing hard and now with a fine bit if sweat to her that she wipes off her face before opening the thing. >She doesn't recognize most of the stuff, but she knows bandages when she sees them.
>>24590537>Seeing the knight return in such haste, Saber would bow her head slightly to the woman in respect. Through some extraordinary means, she no longer seemed to be bleeding by the time the stranger found her way back. Yet neither did she seem the hale and hearty image of vigor...I extol your virtues, Sir Knight, for they must indeed be heavenly ones. You do not need to trouble yourself on my account.>Still, removing her hand from her chest, it remained tarnished with shed blood like the wall she was leaning against. She extended her hand graciously, eager for something to clean herself with....Though seeing as you already have, I will gratefully accept your aid. It is unfortunate the number of those who would offer assistance to me like this thins by the day. I am glad to run into at least one today.
>>24590586>It's a bit late to say "don't worry about me", aha....I'm-not a knight. >If she thinks that's a wound she can handle without a third party doing it, sure, take it. She still needs to catch her breath anyways, letting herself sink to a sitting position after the pass is made.>If anything, she seemed uncomfortable about the praise, having made a sort of face when hearing it.I...won't blame anyone for prioritizing their own safety...but I was here, and I could do something. So I did it. That's all. It's...good you could stop it on your own.
>>24590635I am mistaken then. You have the appearance and actions of one, or at least a kind heart. Is yours a wandering blade?>She took the first aid kit, though no longer possessing a strict need of it. Thankfully, if there was one thing that bandages were good at, it was soaking up blood... The streaks of crimson were foul unbelonging stains upon the knight's otherwise resplendent appearance. An aberration that did not belong. Something that seemingly even the strips of linen recognized and kowtowed to as they worked overtime with each wipe against the surface of her armor.You have helped me more than you realize.
>>24590653>Accidentally hit Escape while reaching for something, yay....I was trained by one, but the knights of my homeland bear the eagle. Something like that, though.>It's almost a shame to use bandages for something that could be used for blood, but...if they're better, they're better, one supposes.>Again that expression crosses her face upon the words. She fidgets for a second before deciding to-...How'd it happen?>Entirely change the subject.
