Chicken Leg [OPEN]

Jonathan McCallen

After a few words exchanged with others, telling him that bathing himself in radiation wasn't a good idea, Jonathan decided to leave the pool of radiation for the sole reason of not being disturbed by anyone anymore. As he walked around, he heard the scraping of the gates as they opened. He turned his head towards that general area to see someone entering. Well that was odd, was the big boss around here? It didn't seem like it. However, before he could welcome her here or protect her from the guards, he knows how pushy they can be, the spider girl had already made her way towards the new girl. Jonathan paused for a moment and thought about whether or not he should approach them. There was the fact that he already wanted to talk with the spider girl, as he always wanted to have another Wasted companion but he decided against it for now. He'll leave that for after.

Jonathan walked back to the town square. Apparently, there was an important message being broadcast earlier and he didn't notice it. Perhaps he had nodded off earlier before? He could just ask someone but he didn't know if they would respond all too kindly to the robotic sounding person. While it was assured that he wasn't a robot at all, since he had flesh and skin, there were people who didn't like approaching him mostly because he puts them off.

He looked at one of the guys waiting at the town square and then asked, "Has the radio broadcasted once more?" His robotic voice was already making itself known. He was pretty sure that this guy hasn't shown any disdain for him. Hopefully he was right.

James Ryder Blaise

James wasn't surprised with the cold shoulder that she had given him. This wasn't the first time this has happened and he was pretty sure this wasn't the last. James didn't get why she did it but he knew better than to push it. He'd rather not have her hating him, that wasn't very ideal. "That's good." He commented with a nod. There was another moment of silence before she continued on to say that she had work to do.

And there it was. James nodded at her and waved goodbye, "Looking forward to it. Bye." At least there was that small chance where he could actually talk with her. It was a possibility, a small one, but it was there. That was more than enough to make him a little bit happier. James then began to walk once more, one of the few who were actually dismounted since he had to tend to some of the animals. He was holding his horse's leash though so he continued on.

James had engaged with a talk with one of the Scouts who weren't doing anything yet but Jain had come back looking solemn and Maisy saying something as if to assure the leader. As he drew closer, he heard something about someone dying. His heart fell at this news. He didn't know who had died but the mere fact that someone had already perished this early into the expedition. He knew that there would be times like this. It wasn't new to him to hear about death. His sister had passed on five years ago thanks to things unrelated to fighting, a lot of his friends had already died for the many years he had spent in Lasthope but it didn't get easier. Or at least, it didn't get easier for him. But this was no time to wallow in grief.

There wasn't much to do aside from the fact that they needed to get to the falls so he rounded up the remaining animals while being helped by the others and then they continued to move, slightly faster this time thanks to Jain. Perhaps it was best that they get to the falls faster. He personally have never been there. It kind of surprised people when he says that he's never seen much of America yet. Fifteen years and he still doesn't know much about the place he is in. When he was a kid, they usually stuck themselves in towns and cities even though there were a lot of Risen there. When he got to Lasthope, while he is involved in a lot of expeditions, he hasn't memorized much of the terrain. He hasn't been this far to the East either.

James patted his horse as they continued to head towards the area of interest.

Alright, got it boss. I'll probably just change a little bit of info on my post then.

@RumikoOhara

Huh I was under the impression with another's post that they set up a temporary camp for rest to eat, but if not, I'll change my post accordingly.

I'm personally waiting for someone else to post really. Other than you that is.

James Ryder Blaise

On days when they were on the move, James didn't have much to do. Since he didn't have to scavenge anything, since that would be better attributed to Scouts, he only had to go around the area to patrol and help out on setting up the defensive perimeters. He wasn't as good as the others when it came to traps, but he could at least give a hand or two. However, at first, he kept his walking perimeter around the horses and dogs that weren't in use. Any sign of something wrong and he was immediately jumping the gun to get to it. However, the animals were in peak condition and just needed some food and water every now and then like regular animals so there wasn't much to worry about.

"Look at that cute little doggie James." A sweet and comforting voice reached his ears. James felt like a child again. From a time long past. Valerie was pointed at a brown furred mutt whose breed was pretty much unknown at this point. It was still relatively small and was cowering on the side. She then went on her knees and beckoned for the dog to come to her. She ripped off a piece of precious jerky and then handed it to the hungry dog, who ate it wholeheartedly and then began to wag its tail, acting playful for the young girl.

"A dog huh?" A rather husky voice reverberated around them. Their father stood imposingly behind them with his arms crossed. Contrary to the aura he was emitting, there was a huge smile on his face as he bent down to pet the dog. "Not a bad idea Val."

James's eyes lit up. "We get to keep him dad?" He felt giddy as his father picked the dog up.

"Definitely." Their father then ruffled his head and then said, "And he's a girl."

James looked up from his position as he noticed that he stopped stroking one of the dogs that was resting from an earlier search, though that was only for a little while before they started to move again. A small smile was on his face as he remembered that time. The dog named Haley had died soon after they entered Lasthope. She was injured at that time and succumbed to those same injuries. Valerie cried a ton that day. She was much more attached than any of the three by the time she died. He stood up in one swift motion and then began to walk around again. Gods, having nothing to do really is boring. Maybe Jain would find something for him to do, since he could certainly fight if need be... though he did know that she would rather preserve one of the two doctors this expedition had. With the amount of animals in tow, it was understandable.

James looked towards Jain who had suddenly stalked off as her pet mule seemed to pick up on something. Figuring that the other Scouts got it, he decided to simply hang back but still kept a watchful eye every now and then at their leader. Hopefully, nothing would come out of it. Perhaps it was just a false alarm. Hopefully, it would be. Risen were a rare sight nowadays, compared to the large number there was before. He clearly remembered those details, when they had so many close calls because of them. Seeing their resident tech, the only one they had for the expedition, he decided to pay her a little visit.

"Heya Amy, you doing alright?" James greeted, but his voice was considerably lowered just in case there was something that would hear them in this area; especially since their leader seemed to have been suspicious of something. He slowed down beside her as he greeted before turning his attention to Jain and Maise, their second in command, for any sort of signal.

Highschool DxD: The Devils' Due [ENDED]

Daithi Akasuki

Daithi was quite surprised to hear the cultist reveal the information so willingly. So their Lord's name is Atuyan the Whisperer and apparently there were other gods who led to his downfall. Whatever mythology this was, Daithi wasn't acquainted with it. He talked about how Atuyan the Whisperer would rise again to take everything back. He then went on to tell them that they should listen join with forces with the god as he doesn't discriminate. Everything that was being laid on the table were enticing to a normal man - unfortunately, Daithi was no normal man.

He turned his head to Sato as he told them his input. Daithi nodded his head, finding no faults in his logic. Daithi turned back to the cultists and said, "Your offer is enticing. To join a powerful god does seem to be an ideal course of action hm?" He said before taking a cup of coffee and then sipping from it, eyes still coldly regarding the cultists. His tone of voice betrayed the look in his eyes.

"However, I'm not so easily bought. How can I be so sure that this is the winning side? How many are you, that you are so assured that your forces would be enough to turn the world over? Is your own base of operations so hidden that you are assured that no one would come there to foil it?"

Same here man. I was pretty excited with starting this.

Also excuse my lack of knowledge with the American topography. My character would probably be as clueless as me since I don't live there.

Ooh, we're starting. I'll get a post up once I get back home.
