[quote=@Joshie] Hmmm... considering what [@Ermine] stated (and that makes perfect sense), would this mean that Andrea would sit this out, even if the Guardians 'insisted' on it? [/quote] OOC: Well, wouldn't we have to roll for influence? I don't quite know how the system works as of yet, but I mean, Andrea's wishes and what she feels conned into doing by the grown ups are two different things. Same goes for Alex, I assume. IC: "You ever lost a hand, Malcolm? I have. You've seen bad, so have I. I ran that bitch into the pavement hard enough to kill a normal human," tearing at her stupid costume, Alex pulled her right arm from out of the sleeve with enough force to tear the portion of the fabric along the seam from her underarm to her lower ribs, before pulling the arm out from under the shirt and lifting the cloth along the right side of her body, pulling it up to display nearly the entire length of her scar, covering only that portion of the scar which would require her to display those bits considered unseemly to reveal in public. "I am well aware what the costs of this job really are. If Dragoon gets out some day, and I have to, I'll put her in the f#$%ing ground myself, but we are [b]better[/b] than this. [b]We don't hurt people[/b]. I am not going along with making Andrea fight her aunt just so we can, what, get it drilled through our little kid heads that sometimes bad shit happens? We already f#$%ing know that bad shit happens," she kicked the steel wall, hard. A clear indentation in the shape of a size eight, five hundred fifty dollar Lucchese boot was left behind when she regained her composure.
