The Unwanted. Superpowered RP with a hint of horror.

I'll just point out that super powered people in comics and movies deal with all manner of weird looking things all the time. It's maybe not exactly what I would expect or even hope for in terms of direction for this rp but it's not a dealbreaker for me.

@Stitches Who says we'll let them leave? MWAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!

But yeah, that is a valid point. To be honest, I always thought that the only reason JJ stuck around was because she wanted answers. Maybe Brooks and Abigail are the same?

@Stitches Not to usurp Acer's authority over this situation like Nate did to Eli but I tried to begin to wrap things up a bit so we could move on. I didn't want to absolutely force Acer's hand though.

Actually...Nate is simply an equal opportunity asshole and does not discriminate.

@Rawk

Also that.

@Stitches Nate has learned that looks can be deceiving. Especially when superpowers are involved.

At the mention of the gala, Nate's head popped out from behind cover again, like a gopher peeking out of its burrow. He had only been mildly interested in these two up until now but learning that the strangers were there that night snapped all of his attention onto them. All the noise in his head stopped at once. He was entirely focused on Brooks and Abigail now. He slid out of his hiding spot and his eyes landed on the sobbing girl. He wasn't much for comforting others so decided to leave that up to someone else. Christi or Vin seemed the most suited for such a thing.

Instead, Nate passed Abigail by and moved towards the old man. The corner of his mouth turned up slightly but there was no smile on his eyes. His eyes were narrow in suspicion and Nate looked Brooks over, deciding that he wasn't an immediate physical threat.

His attention only shifted when he asked Eli if they could put the guns away. "Yes." Nate answered before Eli had a chance to. He turned to Vin and snatched the gun away from him. He knew from experience that a gun in the hands of someone who didn't know how use it could be even more dangerous than someone who did. "No offence buddy but I'd trust the dog with a gun more than you." he told Vin with a light pat on the cheek.

"And you." he said, turning back to Brooks. "We're not gonna kill you because you may be important but trust me, if you or your girl try anything that puts my people in trouble, you will lose a limb." It was quite a serious threat but he said it with a smile. Although this one was less friendly than it was almost predatory.

He turned away and headed back towards the mine. As he passed Eli, he asked "Does everything always have to be so serious with you?" He knew Eli probably wouldn't like his alpha male status being questioned like Nate had just done but Nate had never been much of a subordinate himself.

@Remipa Awesome First of all, welcome back. We missed you.

Second, Eric is currently in the mineshaft with Nate and JJ. Nate is by the entrance, JJ a little further along. We've been sort of using him lightly as an npc because we weren't sure if you were coming back. Just been moving him along with the others nothing major.

Oh and everyone else is outside.

@AcerRo I gotta admit, I'm a little disappointed by Eli's reaction to Nate's stupidity. I thought he'd be much more annoyed.

There isn't a character type that I can remember that's been duplicated.

@AcerRo

Except Nate, because obviousness.
