Alright status update: I have started a new job and am currently in the process of getting used to said job. To all the games I'm currently in I will starting work on responses this weekend
11 yrs ago
Due to a misplacement of my laptop I will unlikely be able to post until Friday or there abouts. My apologies for those waiting on me.
Huh, would you believe me when I say that's actually didn't know that before I wrote that lol. If I'm being honest I heard a tiktoker say that and I thought it sounded cool, although come to think of it he was reviewing anime fights so I guess I should've known that's what he was trying to do. Thanks for teaching me something I've actually wanted to learn proper japanese for a while. I think I'll leave it as is and chalk it up as fantasy language in universe.
DAY - 1 《》 STEELWATER [LZ Alpha - Creek] 《》 Late Morning 《》 @Prisk@Rockette[
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
The dance never seemed to end, Gar would bounce from one place to another Levi wailed in her glee of battle and Aaron dashed through hordes of these living roots and branches. The bright flashing streaks of his spirits could be seen from the transports above as lightning crackled and flashed with each draw of his blade as the faint sound of thunder always trailed behind him. As he heard Gar’s instructions all he could do was shake his head and give a sarcastic roll of his eyes,
”Whatever you say boss, I’ll cut us a path but you guys are gonna have to keep up. These things are gonna close the distance fast.”
As he reoriented himself in the direction of the creek he couldn/t help but admire Levi as she carved through these muties with both bulled and blade, such a love and joy for war and combat. It would almost be sexy if it didn’t terrify him. The onslaught had barely begun again when, just as Aaron and Gar deduced, the BIG one reared its ugly head. The thick mass of tendrils and pseudopods rose from the creek, it appeared to be at least somewhat humanoid in some fashion as the tentacles morphed into some sort of appendages that resembled arms and hands. Its maw was lined with what could only be described as jagged razors that resided under three glowing orbs that were supposed to be it’s eyes. The creature's stench stretched far as the foul odor reached Aaron’s nose and caused him to slightly recoil in offense. This is what caused the tiny ones to react the way they did. As he was preparing his mind to deal with such a nauseating creature, an almost sadistically soothing purr tickled Zephyr’s ears,
"Lead on Zephyr,I'll get on your flank and come around back, I say we blind the bitch, try to scramble it and the lesser nasties."
Aaron turned to Leviathan and watched as she assembled her lance in the heat of combat. The thick blackened blood of these lesser creatures covered her lithe frame as she brushed her hands through her plaited hair clearing her field of view for the melee that was to come. There was something about the way spoke that was infectious, her joy and bloodlust seemed to seep over and spill onto the already bloodstained ground, he could almost feel her delight fill the space between them and lap at his ankles like a gentle flowing stream. As a grin slowly eased its way across his face, he could feel the desire to go all out and truly let loose as he replied in an almost guttural growl,
”Ikuza”, lets go Leviathan, bet I’ll kill before you do!
In a flash Zephyr had taken off and commenced his assault on the massive creature. In his initial dance around the creature he could not get a good sense of if there was anything akin to feet that he could slice and bring the creature down to his level but in his jovial state he decided to take a different approach. As he moved out from under the creature Aaron employed the same technique he used in his landing as he launched himself in the air to meet this thing's torso and landed on a dais of solid air and dashed towards the creature slicing the thing on passing. When he came on the other side he repeated the process and launched himself in a different direction and continued this as he continued to gather speed. The more he danced around slicing the creature the faster he went until the creature was covered in strands of flashing light that streaked into the ever brightening sky. Aaron’s exuberant laughter could be heard over the comms as for the first time in a very long time he was having fun, the spirits of the wind could be heard across the battlefield howling as lightning crackled and reached into the sky as if trying to pull more lightning from the clouds themselves. In that moment the rest of the world fell away and there was only the joy of the fight, of that single moment. As he totally gave into his spirits influence he almost didn’t want that fight to end, to continue flashing across the sky killing these muties for as long as his body would let him fight.
AARON “ZEPHYR” NYLES — STEELWATER [Landing/Battlefield] — 10:00 AM — @Prisk@Archangel89War was never something that he would get used to. The absolute chaos and destruction of it was something that he absolutely abhorred which is why he did not stay in WarDiv. As the transport delivered his crew and him through this wasteland he couldn’t help but somewhat marvel at the well-blanketed precision of the World Eaters. A veritable cornucopia of fire and devastation that covered all that the eye could see, if one was a psychopath one might even see a beauty in it. As conversations were had around him Aaron focused himself for the mission ahead a light breeze laced with visible static flowed around him as his focus carried him into a state of zen-like nothingness. As the LZ came up the pilot mentioned something to Gar and she stood up and prepared herself for drop. As he gathered himself up to follow in suit he realized that they were still significantly high up in the air and she was going to do one of her famous drops into the Hot Zone, an exasperated sigh escaped him as rubbed the bridge of his nose in amused derision. As she was about to take her first step off he couldn’t help but get in her ear and yell out,
”DON’T FORGET THE SUPERHERO LANDING!!!”
As he watched her soar down and land with a sickening thud and proceed to lay waste to all unnatural creation he couldn’t help but think to himself,
’Heh, show off. Can’t let her be the only one to do something cool!
He turned with his back to the open door and peered over his comrades as he gave them a sarcastic salute then fell backwards out of the transport. The sounds of rushing wind past his ears was the most at peace he had been in quite some time. There was nothing in him, around him and for those few seconds he was truly at peace with all of existence, even the muties underneath him didn’t matter. Peace has a way of ending just as you get to enjoy it. On instinct he twisted his body into a normal crouching position as just before he hit the ground a the air under his feet created a solid landing point. As time slowed to a crawl he was able to line six or seven creatures in a zig zagged pattern that he would capitalize on. Lightning surged around him as he kicked off the solid air as he sailed through the air, dodging bullets, biological attacks and other people and quickly drew his lightning infused blade and effortlessly sliced through his first target. As he replaced the blade to its sheath he dashed in a flash and dispatched yet another. This cycle of slice, replace and repeat continued as he tore through his prey with ease until he stood behind the last of his initial targets. As they fell lifeless to the bloodstained ground Aaron finally stood up and survived his surroundings. The mutated creatures were harmless enough, easy to dispatch which made Aeon’s like him were going to have an easy time with these things although swarming was a distinct issue here. As more started to surround him Aaron quickly dropped into his stance and gathered both the wind and lightning into his blade as he quickly drew his sword unleashing a flashy arc of electrical energy knocking out another three to five in a stroke. This was far too easy. These things were too simple of an enemy to be here on their own, something else had to be there out in the inky black of the battlefield. Deciding to keep Gauda as a center, Zephyr dashed around several meters in all directions and got a surveillance of their drop. In the distance the World Eaters continued their bombardment as the immediate field was heavily inhabited by foot soldiers from either side. As Leviathan and Garuda continued their onslaught Aaron continued his effortless killing of these muties a small handful at a time. As he made his way back to the makeshift killing floor center Aaron put his back to Gar and called through the haze of death,
”Boss, this is too easy. Surely there’s something more than this? We need to move and EVAC as soon as possible otherwise were going to get overwhelmed pretty quickly.”
Ok gang I'm back from COVID and I'm gonna try and get a post up this week. Now of all things my laptop has decides to no longer work so I'm doing this through the phone currently so be patient with me lol
Definitely gives off Big Mom energy lol. While I write my post I had a thought, as far as I know I am the only Aeon from IntDiv and as I was writing I figured that Aaron would have some info beyond what is commonly known to the group about the group (since he's a bit paranoid lol). My question to you fellow writers, what is something Aaron might dig up about your character? For the sake of story telling (and only if you want to of course) PM me something interesting he might know. It can be major plot related or not and anything in between. This is of course purely optional and was just a fun exercise that came to mind.
Ok, I have a post in the works and since I couldn't sleep I decided to add Aaron's thoughts about the team to my sheet. I now present, the thoughts of a sarcastic dick,
H E L E N A " D O V E " W E S T E R L Y - "She seems like a sweet girl, a bit simplistic and naieve, but sweet none the less. I've seen her in and about Medical and she seems genuine in her desire to help and heal, not sure how she's gonna survive in combat but I suppose that's what the rest of us are for."
E R R I K O S "C O N D U C T O R" R I G A S - "Ya know, I don't think that I've ever dealt with the old man before. Seems like he'd rather be in a lab somewhere or maybe be anywere else but where he's at. Gotta say though, I don't blame him. There are days that I'd rather be off on a beach somewhere than dealing with the crap the UDF gives us."
L I A M "S P I T F I R E" O G A T A - "I swear that I don't understand these flyboys. Ok we get it, you like to tinker on stuff ya glorified grease monkey, flying is one of the greatest experiences we humans get blah blah blah. I swear NavDiv are simple people...although I have to admit, they look happy. Liam seems like a good kid, a simple grease monkey may just be what we need nowadays."
E M I L I A "G A R U D A" L A N G E - "Now here's a soldier that I don't mind hanging out with. Gar may be quiet and easy going but she's got a great sense of humor that makes her leaps and bounds above her compatriots in WarDiv. Heh, Leaps and Bounds. I wonder how her knees take all those landings, they hurt me just watching her land."
R O B E R T "F L Y B O Y" H E R N A N D E Z - "If there was every a person who just exudes the "If I'm not in the air I'd rather not be here" it's ol' Bobbert. The man is always trying so hard to be deep but we all know the only thing going through his head is getting back up in the air as quick as possible."
V I C "B L O O D H O U N D" G R I N Z - "I may make a lot of jokes about a lot of people, but there isn't a single one that fits Vic. He's a soldier that's seen some stuff but still continues to fight for "King and Country" as it were. I tell you he's a better man than I am, I haven't seen half what he has and I want to leave now. Between Gar and Blood, I'm sure glad we got these two on our team."
E U N - J I "A M A N I T A" P A R K - "I don't know what to make of this one. She's defenitly got the drive and ambition to do whatever she wants, but R&D can't be trusted. She works with fungus that changes other things into muties and she's allowed to work with a team like ours? With her level of expertise who's to say she wont snap on day and use her knowledge on a major city center? I've gotta keep my eye on this one."
I S O L D E "B E L L A D O N A N A" F E A T H E R S W A L L O W - "If the mushroom girl was bad, this one is worse. Isolde Featherswallow, IntDiv has a file on her a mile long and this isn't accounting her slew of "UNFORTUNATE" marriages. This woman's research is something that gives me nightmares, she can pretty it up all she wants about finding a cure or whatever, but I wouldn't trust her as far as I could throw her. To top it all off this woman is ruthless, her sugary extirior doesn't give light to her true nature, just ask her son."
I F A N "Z E M A T" F R A N K S - "Man what is it with the old guys and their complete lack of wanting to be left alone? I thought NavDiv were a more jovial people, this guy just gives a grumpy old man on his lawn. I suppose it has something to do with his stint in WarDiv but I don't know what to do with all these geezers in the team, guess bed times gonna be early huh?"
M A T I L D A "M A L" R E M N A - "Ooh, look out it's a scary soldier lady with punk rock hair. Heh, but serious this woman looks like she would smash my face in with litte to no effort, which sure makes me glad that as long as she's got her eyes on a mutie or a bad guy my face will be the last on her mind. There seems to be something more to her but like most of WarDiv, she's gotta wall up and it's one that I'm not sure I wanna climb."
S C Y L L A "L E V I A T H A N" F L E U R A N E - "Man, WarDiv has a thing for recruiting pretty girls huh? Gotta give the boys something to look at I suppose. I have a feeling that this one is more of a political recruitment given her liniage, I mean why wouldn't the UDF bring in a literal princess to join a special warfare division? The PR alone could skyrocket public opinion. As much as I run my mouth, they wouldn'y make someone a Dragoon for nothing. I need to keep my mouth shut or it wont be the muties that get me heh."
T I T U S "B L I T Z" P H O E N I X - "Finally someone with a word-vomiting problem like me. Blitz sounds like someone that I can get along with; he's witty, sarcastic and a bit of a know-it-all. whats not to like? Well besides that temper and his "I hate the world" attitude it sounds like we'd be best buds. Honestly though, between you and me, how does someone get called the Anarchy King? I'd bet he'd be one hellova time at a party."
AARON “ZEPHYR” NYLES — UDF: CETRA EAST COMMAND [Briefing Room] — Day 1 - 05:00AM — @Prisk@Salsa Verde@Rockette Aaron never really liked dealing with the Warfare Unit too much. They were all too strict and rule driven, save for Garuda, he couldn’t stand the lot of them. As he let out an exaggerated yawn scratching the back of his head he could see the rest of S.W.A.R.G. lining up in true military fashion. As the general went through his long and exhausting briefing, most of which he knew since he gathered a great deal of this info, Aaron paid little mind to most of the info presented and focused more on the people gathered. While he had met most of the Group in previous scenarios he never truly paid any mind to most. As he lazily turned to look at the general he couldn’t help but break him down as he prattled on. McMahon looked like what you would expect a five-star general to look like, grizzled face, hardened exterior, absolutely no personality, a regular snooze fest. He almost did in fact doze off until he heard the words,
"Benjamin Regardie, code name 'Bahamut'."
It took him a minute to piece it all together but as he rather blatantly stepped out of formation and looked down the line and saw the look of pure and total embarrassment on Garuda’s face, the lightbulb went off,
Aaron knew that he would later regret this spontaneous outburst later down the line but in the moment he couldn’t help but let out the uproarious laughter that echoed throughout the hanger. He heard the general and Gar attempt to hash things out but he was no longer listening as he walked off to get himself geared up.
~
It took Aaron several minutes to finally calm himself from his laughing fit as he got himself out of that tacky digital camo and into his usual IntDiv attire. As he strapped his Nakamasa to his hip he turned his head and and saw Emilia talking to some others and couldn’t help but go and give Lange some good natured ribbing,
"So, Gar…is this mission just another story of lovers coming together after a spat, or are you really done with him? I mean, I’ve worked with Hamu a time or two and he can be a real pain in the neck huh?"
