Fallout: Fall of The Brotherhood of Steel [Rebooting and Accepting]

Seeker was there, seemingly out of nowhere, twisting Egwene's wrist as he pushed her arm up, ripping the weapon from her hand. In an instant a knife was pressed to her throat and she would be pinned to the wall. Seeker was different this time, his normal tight suit was replaced with combat armor, a sleek assault rifle was on his back and his torso was lined with ammunition. "Listen carefully you trigger happy little girl, I'm securing our asset, which is what you should be doing right now." He spoke, low and cold, voice strained in suppressed anger. "Try that again and I'll end you, use your head." He dropped her weapon and turned away, taking off down the tunnel in the direction of the ghoul only to disappear in the darkness ahead.

The cluster in the alcove was obvious, but luckily the ghouls were too stupid from their feral nature to notice the group of humans and hulking mutant, only catching the mutants scent and recognizing it as a friend. The horde ran past and up to the service, resulting in a clash of flesh and steel. The ghouls were more of an annoyance than anything, beating on the armor and pushing them down with no lethality on anyone clad in armor though they wouldn't distract them for long. Beams were flying rampantly above, reflecting off mirelurk shells and sometimes into other soldiers or ghouls, chaos ensued.

From down the tunnel another ghoul came, hair remaining on his head appeared it was neat but recently frazzled and he worse a pre-war two piece suit. In his hand was a large black bag and the short ghoul nearly squealed as he seen the people in the alcove. "Don't kill me- No no, a super mutant, men with gas masks, aha!" The man was giddy, laughing hysterically for a moment as he sighed. "It was you guys! And you're idiots! Do you know what you've done? Come, come, we have to leave." The stubby man continued on his way down the tunnel, not bothering to see if they were still being followed or not.

Eryx set his eyes on Vlad's, he was showing Vlad what he wanted to see. Offensively Eryx knew his ability didn't carry as much, though he was processing everything, manipulating the anger in these criminals. He couldn't be sure of any of his accusations, even if they were the way he could make sense of this. One might notice if they're perceptive the way he'd been tapping the table ever so lightly, as if pulling strings of a puppet, comprehensive and controlling.

On a 3pm-midnight shift, been getting wrecked at work.

"With the propper resources I could." Eryx admits, tapping his finger on the table a few times. "Last night I learned twenty-two languages in less than a minute, memorized every motor function of the human body as well as dogs with a number of details, 50 means of torture from different countries, and have established our abilities are a genetic manipulation and likely it was our parents that gave them to us from sleeping strains injected into them. It must have awful effects if used on subjects and we have to be born with it. Explains the age grouping and the fact we're being used instead of military volunteers. Also only ones that nobody would miss, there are many more out there I'm sure, wwaiting for the strains to be activated as ours have."

Looks as though my post is needed, just got home from a tournament, I'll write something up in the morning/early afternoon. Any progress, actions, or conversations before the next move should happen now.

"The only thing you can do doesn't work, you can't threaten me." Eryx says, turning his gaze slightly away. "I comprehend what you can do and what you're potentially capable of doing, it's just a matter of knowing how it works. So far I've found in the simplest terms that it's part of our brains, it all loops back there. Sadly I'm not sure most of you have one to begin with so I can't confirm that."

He looked to them each, slowly and carefully. "It has to do with ones personality. Ryan is a hothead, Aly is a depressed little girl, Lancelot speaks for himself, and Avery is probably confused about his sexuality." He ponders, tapping the table. "I think Vlad is one of us too, he pushed Aly out and sits there fearless despite knowing any one of us could kill him before the guards stopped us. Overconfident, uncaring, fibers slightly resembled modifications I can't understand yet. You could kill us all if you wanted too." He looks to Vlad, his eyes glistening with his own sick amusement.

"You actually tried, can't even recognize bait." Eryx said, his smirk now dominant. The smallest twitch in the eye, the biting of her lip, after she threw back her head even one of the idiots could see the pain she was in. Another opportunity, he knew his thought process would be too much to understand but her pain gave him another clue as to how it worked as well as more bait for the line of provocation.

"You can't comprehend my mind, you aren't smart enough, though the continued pain." Eryx tilted his head a little to the other side curiously. "You aren't reading minds, you're establishing a link between them, that's why Vlad didn't want to be damaged. Can you concentrate enough to stop it though?" Among his studies he had flipped through dictionaries, gradually learning any language he could find reference too. He layered his thoghts over and over in every language he knew.

"With that aptitude who knows what you might do later with these links, mind control? That'll be cute." He shut his eyes, taking a moment to clear his head of thought, he didn't want to be tazed for the continuous torture after all.

He almost smiled at her reaction, leaning over on one hand to cup his cheek. Eryx gave her his normal bored expression however and waved her off. "Would you like me to say in front of all these people? Be a shame wouldn't it?" He bluffed, using his unreadable mind to his advantage while he read people with his newfound hypersensitivity to details.

Eryx inspected her, there's no reason she'd be here if she wasn't, somebody was. His eyes fluctuated for a quick moment, no scars or signs of long term abuse from a larger person. Depression however, possible PTSD, these books were becoming useful. "No, mommy is though." He returned, it was his only explanation for how she could be the way she was in this situation. "But you're a good girl right? Trying to read Vlad's mind, these abilities all seem to reflect part of us. Is it because you can't think for yourself?"
