Los Paraisos: Outside the Pellagio Hotel

While the others chattered away about what to do next, Amy stood off to the side and wrung out whatever bits of water got into her hair when the sprinklers went off. Luckily for Syed she had completely missed his gaze when his eyes wandered over to her - at least initially. But then the mage continued to embarrass himself further by going on about it. Amy noticed him looking her way a second time, but he quickly turned away again.

Amy exhaled deeply through her nose. She caught a glimpse of something red smeared under his ear, though most of it had faded away. Gods.

As Selan read off the newspaper in hand, Amy took to scanning her surroundings for a sense of direction, any sense of direction. Their next step gravitated towards splitting off - to check Saint Drega's church for reasons none of the others had to know about, as well as La Macabaret. Aside from their wakeup shenanigans and sudden mob chase, there were others missing from their group (including Thunderhawk who was previously with them), and they literally had someone else's baby still in their hands. But even with those priorities in mind, the cleric had already set her own agenda from the moment she woke up, and the patience she never had was completely gone now. Especially since one of her heels had broken during their runaway.

Rather than wait for a decision to split, or even a plan on how they should meet back up later, Amy immediately began to walk off away from the group - though she quickly took a turn into the nearest building, some lowly bookshop. Its modest and delicate atmosphere was interrupted with Amy's boom into the open-doored entrance: "Can someone tell me where the fuck Saint Drega's is?"

One block down, take the detour to the right, and head straight towards the monument topped with a giantass angel. It's unmissable, they said with a gulp. Amy emerged a brief moment later and continued walking off away from the group, slightly limping, and arms crossed tightly beneath her bosom. Those inside the store continued to watch the angry blonde with wide-eyed bewilderment before returning to their own business.

As Amy walked, she glanced over her shoulder to see if anyone else followed after, but did not stop to wait. "Moira, Lisette, Syed - and whoever else. You coming or not?"
Sorry about that Pach, I had Amy hammered into that non-responsive position from the getgo, so that's adding onto the lack of proactivity. I've planned on having Trixie pop up in my next post and having something happen to get the group out of its stalemate, though I still don't know what that something is.

I've called in sick for work today so I'll be able to post sometime after lunch. I haven't looked at the ICs yet, but hopefully I'll have my creative side rattled by then and can help bring something new/exciting to the table haha.

I haven't been feeling well at all lately so that's probably coming into play with my writing too. I don't really want to comment on anything else since I might take things the wrong way or say something that could be taken the wrong way. :/

EDIT: Nvm, not posting today, sorry guys.


Los Paraisos: The Pellagio - Elevator

After the elevator door cracked open again it wasn't long before clothes-swapped Thunderhawk and Aria whirred by, along with a clowny Xandra and a relatively normal-looking Marcus as well. Wonderful, so basically everyone went through absolute shit. Then Dylan just casually blurted out asking if anyone else had had sex too, but any further awkwardness that might have ensued from that cut off short from a disaster much worse than an earthquake or a flood.

The paparazzi was by far one of the worst ways to die.

Amy ran a palm over her face, listening as the stampede and snapshots grew louder by the second. She could just lean back. She could just lean back and stay in the elevator, go back to the room, and just stay there. Because fuck facing reality. But even anyone with a hangover would know that would lead to a split party splitting even further. So Amy let out a disgruntled sigh and bolted after the others passed Moira and Syed, hanging nearby the walls for balance. The cleric could feel herself already wearing out; hangovers were the worst, and as someone who has zero athleticism anywhere in her body, that bloody exit better be nearby.

"Gods." That was the only thing Amy could muster to say after everything she had just witnessed. From waking up next to Syed completely clothesless, to listening to everyone else pouring into their room, to Selan's baby and sudden popularity, to Don being Don, to whatever had happened to the four that blurred by. That was it. Gods.

Gods help them.


Los Paraisos: The Bucking Broncos

"Ahhh so good. So so good."

Trixie calmly set down her fork once again, laying it flat beside her emptied plate. She dotted her perked lips with one of those fancy dinner napkins [s]that she totally did not steal from Hell's Kitchen[/i]. Suddenly she froze still as a statue, her eyes still closed and her napkin held against her face.

Freddie scratched the back of his head, eying the prankster with curiosity. This wasn't an allergic reaction or something, was it? It was like someone had hit the pause button on her. At least until she finally dropped her napkin to the floor and stared back at the male stripper.

"Super-senses tingling."

A spark of determination lit in her eyes as her lips creeped into a smile. "Mister Freddie, I need to go outside right now. Where's the outside from here? And do you have a cape I could borrow?"
Hahah congrats on your level 50s, Buns! Tae congrats to you too with your test scores! Good luck with your revisions too, Fox!

I'll be writing a post in about an hour. I won't be able to post again until Saturday, unfortunately. (Most likely PM > AM) Will be spending the rest of tonight and tomorrow morning prepping for my Japanese speech/presentation (about how technology is turning our generation into zombies lol). Immediately after class I'm hitting a concert with some friends. Since, you know, studying for finals next week is overrated.

EDIT: Done posting yay


Hope everyone's doing all right!


Los Paraisos: The Pellagio - Elevator

Amy said nothing.

She said nothing as she stepped out of the room. She said nothing as "Crimson Justice" crossed her path and got subsequently knocked down. She said nothing during the cramped and painfully slow elevator ride, accompanied with the shittiest music she had ever heard in her life. She said nothing as the door peered open to reveal a snap-happy paparazzi cluster, chanting out Selan's and Crimson Justice's names before the door closed shut on them again.

All the while Amy leaned back into a corner, her back on one hall and her head nursing against the other, strained eyes fixated blankly at the door Don guarded. The screams, the excessive flashes, Dylan's uproar of laughter had hammered the hangover nail even further in her head, and she gently wrapped her arms around her stomach. She couldn't even be assed to shoot Syed a glare as he brought up checking out a church - but luckily he changed his words in time. Otherwise she might have targeted him as her puke bucket once that became necessary.

Bacon and coffee sounded so good right now.


Elsewhere in Los Paraisos

"MMMM who knew villains can cook so well! It's so or-gan-nic too, wow! You really nailed this one, Mister Freddie! Oh my omelet - I'm gonna start saying that more often by the way - oh my omelet, this is so good! But! But, but the only thing wrong with it is..."

Trixie slammed her fork down beside her plate, causing the whole table to rattle. Cheesy bits spewed from her mouth with every word. "Why isn't there more!?"
Congrats on your safe landing, Kathi! Hopefully the turbulence wasn't too bad haha. Good luck with LA's weather too!

Also
Taerinn said Man, I can't wait until next-next week for "The Waterbending Scroll", Rex probably feels me on that one 8]
No worries Tae, I totally feel ya! (; hahaha
Sorry guys, I can't post today. :/ I managed to finish my powerpoint presentation last night but then fucked up & fell asleep on my essay that I'm supposed to be taking to my professor tomorrow, but I have to work this morning & go to a Japanese presentation rehearsal right after, then work again after my classes are over. I have *another* presentation for my lit class Wednesday night following my meeting with my history professor & another class so it's like... fuck. lol. I might actually transfer schools/to the air force after this year is over because I can't afford tuition since they took away my grant that let me go through my freshman year.

If you guys need to move the Pellagio group on elsewhere, I don't mind having Amy come out the bathroom after like someone bangs on the door or asks her to come out or whatever. But she's not going to say a word to anyone for a bit lol. as usual idk. Just FB me if anyone needs anything, I usually have my phone on me.

Also lol Tae, congrats on keeping your presentation alive! Can't stand group presentations for the same reasons you listed hahaha, so super congrats on you getting through that.
Just little things like this hahaha :)

I went ahead and did a couple more to test how it'd look with the current pictures haha. I could fix the size and whatever for them later if you guys like this idea! I don't have much time to goof off right now so these look pretty crude at the moment, but yeah haha.

Once spring break rolls around in two weeks, I can toy with making some abstract background for Malachi (and Grendel?) as well or something hahaha idk. I need to get back to my artistic side. ~__~
Fun stuff all around, everyone! IC-wise, just a friendly head's up, your char and their shots would go through one side and out the other of Baltimore's wall, whereas anyone or anything trying to get through the other side would hit something concrete (like an actual wall lol).

Also, I was wondering if you guys were interested in having mini banners for your chars like I have with mine? I can make em really quick. :) I'm so used to seeing every post start with them in another RP, and I think it helps spice up the ICs' appearance a little haha. If it's too much though, that's cool, just thought I'd see what you guys would think!

Splat! The initial soldier's head practically exploded with Morikir's gunshot, causing Baltimore to wince. Just barely did she miss Hector's flashbang followup before he charged outside. Seeing as the soldiers were slowly being pushed back, Baltimore bounced off the wall and waved brightly to the two taking cover inside the room. As she took to a position nearby Hector, she let out a gasp and quickly jumped back into the room - a sniper's bullet had whirred right between the duo, burying itself into the table behind them.

The Siren ran a finger under her nostrils with her signature delicate smile before charging back to the doorway. Dragging along her Moloko rifle, she nudged passed both Morikir and Hector to get to the front most of her mini squad. Luckily the enemy soldiers had been pushed back quite a bit thanks to her team's efforts, and she took the opportunity while they reloaded to make herself vulnerable.

Then, Baltimore thrust her tattooed arm forward and made a swift sweep across the air, from right to left. A loud shing! sounded off, but there were no immediately visible changes. At least not until the enemy soldiers fired at the Siren in sight - before screaming as their own bullets suddenly rebounded back into them. What the?

She looked back to the others and winked, before charging off through the transluscent wall she had erected to take cover elsewhere away from the room, rifle in hand.
