The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Well I wrote that IC fast lmao. Having a blaaaaaassssstttttttt!

I forgot to say this earlier, but Pandy yeah, I'm the same. Discussions kinda scare me, thanks to a long history of making a tit of myself in them. But I'm trying to contribute more, I'm just spending pretty much forever constantly rewriting a post for the OOC to try and make sure I'm making myself as clear as I can. Because I'm pants at making myself clear sometimes lmao.

Los Paraisos: On the Go
"Woah! Watch what you're doing, bro! You'll blow us up!"

Some things were easier said than done. Especially when you're clutching desperately onto the back of a motorbike for dear life, convinced you could fall off at any moment. Especially when you have difficulty keeping control of your magic when you get wound up. Especially when the guy driving was doing stunts! Although to be fair Tom was toning down the stunts compared to the others, sensing the discomfort of his passenger. Not that it made every time they barely missed traffic as they ran another red light any less horrifying.

At least he had a helmet. At least he had a helmet. At least they'd be able to identify him by his dental records. Unless he blew them both up of course, and he had done enough of that for a lifetime.

"Sorry! I'm trying I promise!" Syed cringed, pushing his helmet down on his head harder. Streams of electricity arced from his temples and stained the air behind him in a brilliant blue-white streak, dying down as he tried his best to suppress them only to brighten again when his bond to Moira caused the bike to wobble quite badly. Damnit damnit damnit damnit!

Moira, on the other hand...

"WOOOOOOOOOO!" she screamed, fist-pumping the air. She had managed to borrow a spare pair of shades from one of the many bros, and now was convinced she was probably the coolest person there. Or at least, the coolest person over 40. She leaned back on her seat to prove a point, gripping the back of her seat. Yeah. She looked awesome.

"'Ere, gimme a go!" she shouted over the din of the wind in her ears. "Come onnnnnnn!"

"Can't stop, sis!"

"Who said anythin' about stoppinnnnnnWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" she screamed again as they nearly collided with a bus, only for her driver to dive to one side with a screach of brakes, orange sparks flying everywhere from the wheels as they drifted. She reached up just above their heads, her fingers brushing against the paintwork.

This was better than a shitty rollercoaster, that was for sure. This was probably the best thing she had done in ages! She was having a blast! She needed to get her own motorbike sometime.

Nothing lasts forever, especially the good things. Just as the bike came to a sliding stop, Moira was already stepping off, pulling her helmet off her head with a shake before putting her hands on her hips with a pout.

"Sorted."

Syed meanwhile took a quick moment to come to terms with the fact that somehow they had got there safely. He pulled his helmet off and let his forehead rest against Tom's back for a moment as he muttered a quick prayer. The priest bro gave him a solid pat on the back in return. He rather shakily peeled himself from the bike and returned to Moira's side. So they were in this place? Fantastic.

"This is what I call-"

"A challenge?" Syed volunteered with a wry smile.

"-A fuckin' pain in the arse." Moira folded her arms. This place was huge, an absolute monster of a building made entirely of glittering white stone and glass. Even in this city of glass the building stood out, most likely thanks to it's equisitly scuplted carvings carefully positioned across the facade. There were a lot of burly looking men patrolling the entrance. Ohhhh boy this was a bit different to raiding a bandit hideout.

"Crimcrim! Boss! Miss Pretty and Doctor Evil and oh my omelets there are too many of you to name. Who's the target. Who do I distract. Who do I nab and bite and steal from and - what's the next step!?"

"Woah woah Trix, hang on a minute," Syed held his hands in front of him as he went to crouch down near her. To be honest, as much as he knew they were far enough to not be noticable, he thought Trixie had the right idea just in case. "Just distracting those outside won't mean much if the people inside are hostile too. And we don't really want to endanger anyone held captive in there. We need a plan."

"Nah," Moira grunted. "I think we should just charge in there. There's like... a billion of us."

"And how many people do you think is in there?! That place is massive!"

"...We use the back door?"

HOLY SHIT @ IC

omg omg omg omg omg omg *manly tears everywhere* omg

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

I've played Smash Bros Melee and Soul Calibur... 3, I think? I really liked the character creation in Soul Calibur, I ended up making a character I was RPing with at the time and she kicked arse. Shame the game was my friend's, so I couldn't play it much.

But yeah with both games I could only really pick the game up for an hour at a time before I'd get bored.

I'm kinda interested in Skullgirls though? I just love the art style. But I probably won't play it lol

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

D: D: D: Tae best wishes to your Mum.

Yeah, I'm pretty terrible at judging when scenes are over lol. Welp.

Aaaaaaah Pach you shouldn't be sorry, I think most of us have skipped a post without saying anything and technically you didn't even miss it since you updated one of the scenes lol. I just got worried if you were okay since you going silent in the OOC is pretty... out of character for you *bam bum tish* and miiiiiight haaaaave overreacted a bit lol. But you are okay, and I'm really glad.

And yeah I totally agree with the you not posting if three people or more people don't post thing. Sounds good to me, you can only do so much!

And yeah increased communication in the OOC would be cool. I understand why people do go straight to Pach often, but if we can bring some of that to the OOC that'll be awesome. And kind of uncomfortable at first. But awesome.

Uuuuuuuuurgh MOTs. The suckiest thing about owning a car.

BAM!

Syed was the first of the bound pair to spin around, still on edge thanks to Tom's comments. Who the hell was that?!

He gasped. No seriously! Who was that?!

Moira frowned a little. She was never one to be particularly fazed by doors slamming open. Hell, usually it was her! But Syed's reaction certainly got her attention. She turned slowly, her eyes rapidly widening at the sight.

“BRO!” Screamed the backlit man who stood dramatically at the doorway. Was... was he wearing shades and a fro? Dayumn, this guy was cool. “Thank god you’re here! And all of you guys too! We’re in trouble!!”

“Trouble, bro? What’s going on??”

“It’s an emergency, bro! A real big emergency!! We need to find Big Bro, now!!!”

"Big bro?" Syed repeated, subconciously bringing a hang to gingerly touch his cheek. Was calling people bro a new trend going around or something? He must have been losing his touch, he thought it was just Don's thing. And as much as Don did seem to know a couple of people here, there was no way... right? That'd be way too big of a coincidence. Nonetheless he took a couple of steps forward, looking quite alarmed. "What kind of emergancy?! Is someone hurt?!"

Moira blinked a couple of times. What the fuck was going on? "No no no back up!" She crossed her arms before her in a denial. "Who the fuck are you?! And I get this guy's your mate or something, but why us?! We're busy, we're 'bout to go to a stripclub."

Syed flushed spectacularly. Oh Vayu could she have worded that any worse? He wanted the ground to swallow him whole right now.

Okie dokey I'm back! I won't be posting this morning after all. I slept on it and caught Pach when he was starting work and yeah Tae I think you're right lol. The church scene is a little ahead, so I guess I'm gonna call this round as my break. And when I was writing I was kind of forcing it, which is never good haha!

On the bright side, I needed to start going bed earlier anyway haha!

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

OOPS I GOT KINDA SLOW SNIPED HANG ON LET ME EDIT

Right guys! I'll be honest, I want to post but I'm completely stumped right now. It's been a looooooooong day. So, I'm gonna go bed now, set my alarm for 5am then write something up then. Try and sleep on it and see if I can think of anything.

So Tae, Rex, if either of you have any ideas for the church scene I'd love to hear them! So I want to try and do something (going back to the acting vs. reacting there I guess!), even though my brain really is not cooperating with me right now. Hopefully it'll be better in the morning!

And sorry Tae! The light thing was just me having a bit of fun, there wasn't really any significance to it. Other than Sy having a mini-revelation I guess???

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Hahahahaahahaha welcome back guys! We missed you!

Yeah, stuff landing on birthdays sucks. But I always make sure I'm working on my birthdays now, as wierd as it sounds. The last time I booked a birthday off work, my mum told me I had to drive my sister to the hospital for some tests. My sister then told me the wrong hospital, on the opposite side of the county to the one she wanted. Then gave me the wrong directions. Then when we finally got back we went out for a meal, where my parents did nothing but talk about my sister and how fantastic and successful she is then (in my dad's case) death and it's inevitability.

Work is preferable :P

SLAP

Moira suddenly found herself tensing, staring wide eyed as her partner was sent stumbling backwards - and eventually crashing as clumsily as ever into one of the pews. He didn't react much otherwise. As numb as he felt, a part of him still felt he very much deserved it.

"Ey, ey what's that for?!" she exclaimed, scowling at the cleric. It was okay when she was the one smacking him about, but she wasn't sure she really liked other people joining in. Even if she was her friend!

Either way Amy left, with Marcus excusing himself after her.

Syed gave Tom an awkward thank you as he helped him up. “If you’ll sign your name here, everything will be set and done and your annulment’s done. Don’t worry, buddy. There’s always next time.”

"Ha... ha... thanks," Syed replied awkwardly. Why was he even thanking him?! He never wanted to get married! There shouldn't even be a next time!

He then looked down at the certificate, only to cringe. The music sure wasn't helping at this point, causing the guilt to pile higher and higher and higher. Not only for Amy, but also for Tom! Urgh!

Well he sure felt shitty now, putting Amy in a situation like that. He was learning more about her today than he had in pretty much the entire time he had known her so far. He looked down at her loopy, scribbly signature - as much as signatures tended to be illegible, he knew the difference between a scribble and written word. This was a scribble. The way she stared at the paper, her not knowing where to sign... she had hidden it pretty well. But in the end of the day, he could recognise that sort of problem better than most. It was like Don with his cards yesterday.

Still, he saw no reason to bring attention to it at this point. "Um... Father Tom? Tom? I uh... I dunno which you'd prefer. Anyway, she signed the wrong box. Is that ok?"

"I'll make sure it's sorted bro," Tom replied, giving him a consoling pat on the back that Syed really didn't need. Yet somehow, still appreciated greatly. Okay, maybe he did need it. He felt the weight lifting from his shoulders almost immediately.

"Thanks," Syed smiled with relief, patting Tom's shoulder in return. Then immediately feeling kind of awkward for it. He then turned back to the certificate, quickly scrawling his own signature into a box too.

Just as he lifted the pen from the paper, he froze, his eyes staring into space. He couldn't ever make up for what he had done... or at least what he thought he had done. But maybe, just maybe... he slowly looked up from his position bent over the desk to Tom. The pen slipped from his unresisting fingers.

A shaft of light had struck the priest bro, illuminating him in a divine glow.

Syed's jaw dropped in awe. He was tempted to drop on his knees on the spot, but he wasn't entirely sure if he should. "Oh Lord..." he muttered, grasping his pendant. Maybe it was a sign!

"What?" Moira blinked a couple of times, a finger stuck up her nose. "What are you doing? Shouldn't we be asking this guy like, more about the night?" She turned to Lisette with a shrug.
