Nyther

X-Com War for Earth

Sweet. I assume we're starting out as basic soldiers, not mech's or psionics yet? And I figured we'd do just like the game and have a turn system.

I'm gonna catch you! ( Peachperfect and Nyther)

Hugs right back atcha.

Flynn rolled his eyes. What the hell was Alyson doing? Was this just some sick game she played with her prisoners right before she killed them? Was she just playing nice and get to know each other to lull hum into a false sense of security? Flynn thought silently to himself. He didn't really have a whole lot to his name. A few credits, his ship and that was all. So there was no reason he could think of to make nice with him before killing him.

"You mean other than getting thrown in here and you seeing me naked?" He snorted. Flynn looked up and thought for a second. "Fine." Flynn started. He was hungry enough to play her silly game. "I had a bounty a few months back. It was some creep who was stealing money from different businesses electronically. I don't recall how really, but he took a good bit of money." Flynn squinted at the ceiling remembering all the details. "Name was Cleve, or Clive. Something like that. Anyways, turns out this guy had an obsession with hookers. You know prostitutes?" Flynn started to get lost in the story and started smiling.

"So, I'm trying to find a girl, real hooker or not, to go undercover and help me catch him. Well, everyone I talked to wanted more money to do it than the bounty was worth. The bounty was about four thousand and these women were wanting eight, nine, and even ten thousand to help me. So, I'm in a bind. This guy's supposed to meet someone in the bar that next night. After that he was taking off and I had no idea what type of ship he had or anything. Just knew what he looked like. So, I had to do something right?"

Flynn sat a little more upright, and even faced Alyson. He was fully into his story now. He started gesturing wildly as he talked. "I, in my genius, decide to dress up like a hooker. The bar was dark and I'd have drinks sent over to him so he'd be too drunk too tell I was really a man. So I go buy clothes, a wig and some make-up." Flynn puts up his hand. "I didn't get a dress or anything. Just a pink tee shirt with a heart on it. All girly like. So I dress up and put the wig on and try my best to put on the make-up. Then I head to the bar."

"So, it actually goes down pretty much according to plan. I get him to my ship, knock him out and turn him in. However, that's not the embarrassing part. I turned him into the Federation still in full women's get-up. I didn't notice until I got back on my ship. Needless to say, I made a hideous woman and I did a horrible job putting on make-up. That dude I took in called me sexy though. So I guess that's something right?"

Flynn smirked as he finished his story. The things he did to get the job done. "So, I told you my embarrassing story. Now I have a question for you." He started, holding his arm slightly through the bars expecting the cereal. "You've got this big fancy place here. You've got plenty of money and people at your disposal." He paused for a second. He wasn't sure if he really wanted to know the answer to what he was about to ask, but he went ahead anyways. "Why are you down here with me?"

Please forgive me. Smallest post ever. But I'm having so much fun with them getting to know each other. I can only describe so much within a post without screwing up the dialogue they're having!

It's cool. Same thing here.

End of Days: Flashpoint

The sun shined right into Mile's eyes. It was early morning and he stretched and stood up from his small bedroll on the ground. He rolled up the bedroll and strapped it to his back. He dusted off the dirt from the only suit he wore and stepped out of the small metal shack that stood just outside of Antire. He checked around making sure that no one was looking. He put his hand to the metal shack and it seemed to melt onto his hand and flow to his wrist. There it formed into a solid bracer, which he adjusted and pulled his sleeves down over his wrists.

He then made the short trek into the city. He had been staying here for a little while now. He had lost track of time long ago. He had been here doing odd jobs to earn money. He liked it because most people seem to keep to themselves and Miles liked it that way. As he walked towards Hole in the Wall bar he glanced around. The town was still slowly waking up and started to get busy. He ducked into the bar and walked up to the bartender on duty. "Any jobs today?" Miles asked. The bartender just shook his head sadly. "Well then." Miles said reaching into his pocket and pulling out a crumpled bill. "Just a beer." He said tossing it on the bar. He took a swig from his beer and surveyed the bar. It was pretty barren. Hopefully more people would come in soon. Maybe some of them needed some help with some paying work.

Flynn caught the towel. With a gruff "Thanks" he proceeded to dry himself off. He scoffed at her "spoil the prisoner joke" joke and started to get dressed. He felt a million times better after that shower, as brief as it was. He watched as Alyson went over to the table and grabbed two bowls. She brought them over and sat down in front of the bars. She joked that she just might not give him the cereal. Flynn looked at her as she sat down. In her attempts to tease him she had sat close enough to the bars where he could reach her. He could just walk over there, reach his hand out and grab her. Pull her close to the bars and make her open his cell. Either that or kill her, and use whatever she had on her to get out of here.

All these idea flashed through his head. She held one of the bowls and playfully teased him, asking if he was hungry. "Just do it. One quick motion and she's in your control. You'll be able to get out of here and collect the bounty. It did say alive OR dead." His inner dialogue started. He sighed heavily to himself as these thoughts flashed through his head. He walked over to the door in front of Alyson, and sat down. He leaned sideways against the edge of the door and turned to Alyson. "You're really funny you know. I am hungry." He looked at her and smirked despite the situation.

He beat himself up mentally for not taking possibly the only opportunity he may have had to get out of here. He chalked it up to mental exhaustion. He would have never let such a golden opportunity like that pass him up before. Maybe he was losing his edge. Maybe he was getting told old too keep fighting all the time. As he thought these things he looked at Alyson and another thought entered his mind. Maybe, he wasn't losing it at all. Perhaps he just finally understood someone and felt a slight connection. He shook his head. Didn't matter the reason now. He had lost a possible chance at escape. Luckily for him, he still had his original escape plan. So he took comfort in that.
