I do agree with Yandere's sentiment that words not wording workingly do be a problem this time of year.

Scratch that, place your bets on polymarket.

Looks like I'll be working on memorial day weekend. And no, this does not mean place any bets on polymarket.

due to a typo on my part I was nearly convinced I owed the IRS nearly $3000 in excess taxes this year.

Bio

-There will be delays in replies. Largely due to working overtime, voluntary obligations; other RPs and online-things may compete for my attention.

'Bout me:
Started RPing (badly) back in '05, mostly doing nation-RPs with an emphasis on technology and strategy, later edging out to character-espionage and military-tactics before doing "less serious" character roleplays that were outside of the 2005-2008 continuity.

That's when I went to Dead-Frontier, and found the RP community there, joined a clan, did some pretty good roleplays and pretty much loosened-up my online-personality. When the clan-leader decided to move her RPs here, most of the clan followed.

Took a course in technical-writing back in '08, so now I may sometimes use the semicolon correctly.

In 2010 I dusted off the old nation-RP continuity I had, doing a few hetelia-esque RP-shenanigans there..

RP-Habbits: I tend to geek-out on little technical-details, and sometimes infer how those details would impact the background of the roleplay. Great for world-building, not so great when you had a perfectly good plotline and I just MacGyver it off the rails (though I usually er to the side of amusement, sometimes it creates very grim side-stories).

Is all well then or can I use that in a post?

I kinda want too :p

She kinda needs a reality check anyway.


Marlene is going to give her a "special" project.

It'll involve doing something to Snow Leopard while Kat is distracted.

>Rounds-up a wheelbarrow full of "distractions" while whistling a totally innocent tune

>Invites @Massasauga

Sarah still collects 20th century electronics, right?
Don't make me get the Canadians involved in this like they did all up in the war of 1812.
@Massasauga Get out.


I thought you were from the northern east-coast?
"Oh gods," Cecillia muttered in a barely-audible whisper. "Kat, I'm so sorry..."

As Kat stormed-out, Marlene sighed. Things had been fraying at the edges for awhile now and it just had to be now that one of their own was starting to come undone... in front of a client...

"I'll take care of it. You'll have to tell me how this meeting ends, later." She replied as she rose and went for the halls, moving quickly to keep from losing her.

She didn't try stopping Kat, at first she didn't even talk to her until they'd walked well out of earshot. But the important thing was she wasn't going to let her just run away; because that's what she was doing, and she was better than that.

"All week you've been itching to use that bazooka on a worthy target. Mind telling me why I shouldn't have even bothered to watch-out for your field of fire?"

...

"I want to hear it from you what happened; what you, in your many years of working unpaid-overtime keeping these things running, propose we have to do to fix this.... We're worried about you, okay?"
@DarkStar how's this 'pulse' thing work?


It's like a text-messege in Skype over your PADD.

Fun note: viz-camo or no, it's pretty easy to tell when a bazooka is fired.
-Or in our case, when one is NOT fired.

BTW: I'm assuming Kat did NOT key her screaming through the radio, pretty sure people in combat don't key-in the mic just to scream.
-Since the scream was apparently only heard/mentioned by one person.
Speaking of funerals....

I may be attending one this weekend, since they finally recovered the body.
XCD/OSU relations.
@Aristohope I'm not posting too often but couldn't resist.
I'll lay low for a while and let everyone else have their piece.


Totes gonna have to drag your character to PMs or something for a side-chat.

...

Not that kind of side-chat, @Massasauga. But I know you're going to imply it anyways.
I wanted to wait for more posts, since I've been pretty speedy with my intervals, but Kat turned the scene on its head and I'm so eager to write Cecilia's lid blowing off.

-Well, I was going to kindly point-out that we sort-of need the parts, since Kat is already scavenging off of civvie-frames just to get-by.

Also, she kept quite because she didn't want their client to know her suspicions... but now this... yay.

@Dark Light
BTW, if Kat bolts, Marlene will go after her.
"You look f-" Marlene's answer to how Sarah's FRAME appeared to be holding-up was cut-off when Cecelia called for them to withdraw for debriefing, which led to Mr Bubbles making a far less than graceful series of bounding-moves down the street as Marlene saw what was left of her lens fall-off and crash into the pavement from all the jiggling, likely rendering her to pilot it completely blind.

Now, as a very rude word regarding the new status of Mr Bubbles came to mind; Sarah had two options, really. She could've popped the hatch like a normal person, or remained buttoned-up and rely on one of her team-mates to make sure she was pointed in the right direction with a series of commands and in some cases, shunting Mr Bubbles with a well-timed shoulder-bump.

...

After what seemed to remove a fair amount of paint off Yassir's shoulders, Mr bubbles came to a halt in Samigina's cargo-bay, allowing Marlene to get out and probably not have to worry about anything large and expensive getting broken... for awhile. As she saw Sarah run-off like a squirrel on a caffeine-high, she was thankful that she was the ship's problem for right now as she made sure both FRAMEs were secured in their bays before catching-up with their hyperactive-mascot.

The briefing around the holo-table, put lightly, was highly skeptical of Colonel Guoliang's motives; at least from Marlene's perspective as she looked over at Bentz.

She strummed the table a few times at the end of the spiele as she quietly debated whether or not to voice her opinion on the matter of being a non-national unit being aligned with the commands of a black-ops unit with likely a checkered history of its own. Sounded like a scapegoat-for-hire offer.
