Once upon a time, I used to cheer for May the 4th... now I cry with disappointment. *Except Clone Wars S7 and the Mandalorian - they are awesome*
Welp posted Marlene... and shit forgot to make my post in regards to Saya and the Guard. I'll do it tomorrow maybe. Just when is the ball thing going to happen?
As Marlene looks to her right, she almost stumbles down the last few steps as she finds that Argus was standing right there.
"Oh god..." she groans to herself silently, then she begins saying as kindly as she can muster, "Oh... it's you... What do you want now?"
The man seemed to be in an awkward position, perhaps by all the peer pressure around him, as he begins explaining himself.
”Uh, sup. I came to apologize for the prank I pulled on you and how my, er, previous attempt at apologizing turned out. So, uhhhhh. . . . Okay, I’m not really good at apologies, so is saying sorry enough for what I did? I’m not trying to be a smart aleck or anything, I just not certain what else I can do to show sincerity."
Oh god... he sounds annoying even when he's apologizing. None of the less, Marlene should, and is actually, glad that he's apologizing. Then again, she didn't exactly do the best in her response to him with the fight and everything. Several blank blinkings later, the Crystal Maiden finally responds.
"Well..." she begins, "J-Just don't do it again ok? Or to anyone in that matter. And I'm sorry for retaliating at you so aggressively both times and probably almost unintentionally kicking you out of your guild... but... just don't do stuff like that alright? For your sake really... Is that cool with you?"
"Never been called that before. And less a knight-in-shining-armor and more just willing to get the job done to protect the Last City."
Samus subtly nods at the man's (James Varrock's @Zarkun) response, understanding the motive. The "Knight-In-Shining-Armor" statement was mostly to be considered as more of a joke, a play on the medieval stereotype of such armory, and the fantasy tales that involved said armored knight, in saving a princess or some other artifact. Of course, it can also be one person likes such style anyways. It is a rather EXTREMELY retro style to have such kinds of armor designed in the fashion, at least in her own universe. She hasn't really encountered anyone wearing it for who knows how long, only finding the original suits empty in museums.
She then bolts her head towards the door, only to see Guile throwing out the pink blob that is Quina, along with it's stuff. He then slams the Reception Door, ending with a loud thunk. Samus knew that Guile can get short-tempered, but has never actually seen it in action. She may not like Quina that much but then again, even she thought it was a little... unnecessary. Then again, it also means that one shouldn't fuck around with the buff military man. He then proceeds to explain the situation at hand; they don't know what the cube is, the Seven before them thinking they were the last ones remaining, but was proven false, and having a Doctor Solus explain the Mugen-Virus, mentioning of a vaccine.
As the alien scientist explains what he knows, Samus almost didn't see that the certain red-uniformed plumber began approaching her for the second time since the introduction outside at the mess hall. When she catches him coming from the far side of his eye, she makes a mental groan of disgust as she tries her damnest to keep focused at the situation at hand. God, does she remember how much she hates him. He may be one of the most popular heroes in the multi-dimensions, being known for saving Princesses, taking down the King of the Koopas, Bowser, and even saving his entire galaxy twice, he surely hasn't aged mentally for the past decade or so. He is absolutely not Samus' type in the slightest, hell, she's not even interested in getting a boyfriend at this stage. Yet, even when sitting beside Hapu, Mario manages to plop down next to her and stretch his arm out comfortably along the back of the bounty hunter’s seat. The bounty hunter looks down next to her with a resting bitch face, to see him grinning and rubbing the back of his neck in shame.
“Hey, I hope you aren’t still upset about the potato. I was only foolin’ around.” Mario says apologetically to her quietly as to not disturb the meeting.
Despite still having some reasonable manners in his arsenal, Samus rolls her eyes as she crosses her arms, ignoring him as she listens on. She hears that the vaccine came from Umbrella Corps and that the scientist has perfected it. The woman heard of this corporation before on inter-dimensional TV. It's infamous for the "vaccines" regarding the transformation of horrifying mutants. They reminded her heavily on the X-Parasites that she's heard about on the planet SR388 (See Metroid Fusion), who can replicate their hosts' physical appearances and memories, killing them afterward. Samus thankfully hasn't encountered them yet, and hopes she never has too*.
Eventually, the briefing ends as the cube shows another universe, the Kingdom of Erion in the Altus Universe. This is where their first mission is going to take place. It's pretty straight forward: get ahold of this one ring, stop this guy, and turn everything back to normal. Samus then takes a gander at the teams and where she was placed in. She was placed in Team 2, with Edward Buck being squad leader. The others involved were Luigi, James Varrock (apparently the person she just talked to before the briefing was coming along), Amaterasu (the wolf creature), and Hapu. Thankfully there was no Mario or Quina seen in her group. She breathes a sigh of relief as her slight "worries" were proven false. The square then fades out and Guiles orders everyone to get a shot, head over to the teleporter room and form up into their assigned groups.
Sounds like a plan.
The bounty hunter gets onto her feet, gets the shot from the room, and proceeds to head towards the teleporter room. As Samus exits the elevator, she sees James leap into the portal to the unfamiliar territory that is beyond. Looks like someone's rather eager to get things moving. Even then, other than what she's shown, she has little idea on what to actually expect. Regardless, she too jumps into the portal as well, planting herself a location for the rest of her group to form up.
*(Samus does get infected in Metroid Fusion, the last game of the Metroid series before the newly released Metroid Prime: Federation Force, but gets cured by creating a vaccine made from a remaining cell culture of the infant Metroid that Samus had previously contacted in Super Metroid, as the Metroids were the X's main predators on SR388. Not only does it give her the ability to absorb and use the nuclei of X Parasites for nourishment, but also burdens her with the Metroids' vulnerability to cold. Her infected Power Suit is sent to the BSL station for examination, although parts of the suit were too integrated with her body to safely remove during surgery, forming a partially armored suit called the Fusion Suit. This Samus that I'm using is Pre-Metroid Fusion based, as her style comes from the original game from 1986).
I look forward to Mario and other Legends being 100% flabbergasted by the lack of even remote knowledge of who they are. Simply because the looks on their faces when he says "All information on who you blokes and sheilas are to humanity was lost in a great cataclysm and we may have only MAYBE found something."
Samus wouldn't give two shits to be perfectly honest. She's a soldier/bounty hunter, she's been through all that anyways. But yeah, she might still be kinda on edge though.
Will post soon, and I've just noticed... holy shit @Holy Soldier, Guile really threw out Quina huh? Was it all simply because of the so called questions or such? The hell is that thing gonna do now? If I may ask that is...
*Crashes back into the RP* You know... I thought that I would get one up. Thing is, idk if it will this time. I should be still trying to run this RP regardless, but interest kinda plummeted to a new low. Something just wasn't coming into my head. Plus being a bit busy with not only RPs here but irl stuff as well also suffered on everything regarding to here.
Damnit, and this is why I'm not the biggest fan of making RPs. I mean... all I can say is this RP is dead. Idk when or if I'll make another one, but in the event that I do, I'll make my damn hardest to keep my toes in and GM. Possibly be sure to get a CO-GM as well. But yeah... I'm sorry to say... but this RP is dead.
So damn sorry for pulling a Vongola here... really damn am.
And yeah, I was also wondering... @Fabricant451, I know you're out there! I know your active! A little bit of notice coming from you will be nice! Please?
