Azeal and Sora

Azeal noticed as others were beginning to introduce themselves to the Alien, and seemingly to each other as well, taking a deep breath and sighing as a result.

"Ah, right...Guess there's the possibility of others not knowing each other as well. Bit of a pain that I have to repeat myself though." Azeal said, scratching the back of his head with his eyes closed.

"Plex is not aware of us as we are not much aware of...I'm assuming a 'him'. It's for the best that we ensure no one in our team is out of the know." Sora told the demon, who responded with another sigh.

"Yeah, yeah, I get it. Doesn't make it any less annoying though." The Demon took a pause, then a deep breath.

"...Right, My name's Azeal Crystalis, and I am a Demon from Hell, I'm a Lord of the Lake of Fire, and I'm a descendant of the Fallen Angel of Wrath. Not sure if anyone not of earth has even heard of us though. Anyways, long story short: I joined because I owe these people that for breaking me out of a bind." Azeal said to Plex, though also making sure everyone else heard him as well, making sure he doesn't have to repeat himself again later on. He didn't like to prospects of keeping what he is a secret, since they're bound to find out sooner or later anyways. It's not like he could help that he was born as a literal hellspawn, so he may as well say it outright and let them have their negative reactions now than wait til they find out for themselves and assume he's some sort of spy or evil traitor or something like that.

"...My name is Sora Grimoire. I am a Reaper assigned to this Universe to fulfill the role of Death in harvesting the departed, and eliminating the undead and lingering spirits, so as to ensure they return to their place outside this realm. ...Present company excluded under..."special" circumstances. The Latter purpose is the reason I am within this organization." Sora said, staring right at Cal as he mentioned "present company".

@The Jest

I mean, I kind of have to wait for everyone else to introduce themselves, so, you'd still have to post before me. :/

@AllHollowsEve

Touche'. Point taken. ^^

The Bureau of Supernatural Affairs

@The Jest you know there aren't posting turns right?

@KatherinWinter

And I appreciate that, however, I prefer to wait as long as I can for everyone else to post before posting myself, organization's sake and all.

But very well, I'll have a post up tomorrow.

The Bureau of Supernatural Affairs

Anyone else going to introduce themselves to our alien?

@KatherinWinter

I will when my turn is up.

Azeal and Sora

Sora said nothing as Griffin showed him his teeth and spoke. Needless to say, it seems his comment got him on the Werewolf's bad side, which was fine for Sora; compared to the verbal attacks he seems to get by the living on a near-daily basis, a werewolf correcting him and essentially declaring himself above everyone else was nothing that couldn't be handled. Although the feeling was quite mutual, as Griffin spoke as if he was designated their leader off the bat. Considering his personality, Sora highly doubts the responsibility of "leadership" was the aspect they felt he needed help with when forming this team. Still, if this is what the higher-ups demanded, for Griffin to be leader of this team, then Sora will abide by their decision. That, plus it did seem like he was willing to give her a chance as he said anyways. This in mind, he immediately backed out of a potential stand-off and left it at that, putting his focus back on the team as a whole.

"Ah, a Futakuchi-onna. That explains the bad hair day." Azeal said to her.

"A Futakuchi-onna?" Sora asked, extending his pan to Argo so that he may also eat up some eggs.

"A Yokai basically...well, more like a human-turned-Yokai. It's a common curse for women in Japan. Don't remember how you are suppose to get it though, I hear so much bullshit with myths that it's hard to filter out the truth from fiction. They have a second mouth that controls the hair like limbs, and would be able to use them like whips, or at least that's what I heard. ...Still, gotta agree with Wolf-boy on this one. Unless that hair's the stuff of nightmares for a barber, it's hard to think up an effective use for it...in combat I mean." Azeal explained. He then listened to Argo's..."concerns" regarding if he should be on this team at all.

"Tch, relax kid. You'll be fine. They put you and the actual kid in this team for a reason." Azeal said to him, not only ignoring the fact that Argo isn't a kid, but blatantly pointing out how he knows Argo's an adult by mentioning Billy as the "actual kid".

"I would also like to point out, I'm not a demon, I'm a reaper." Sora added, raising his gloved hand to the side of his face as he did, as if requesting for an opening to be heard. They both then heard Griffin telling them to head up for some potential team-building exercises, much to Azeal's annoyance as he sighed.

"Understood." Sora simply said to Griffin as he walked back up the stairs, ignoring the words of the Lich as he states what his past self was like, further clenching a fist, holding back the urge to summon his deathscythe to cut the undead down where he stood. What snapped him out of the frustration was hearing another voice he did not recognize, turning around to see the alien presence. Azeal also looked at this "PLX-395" thing as he explained his reason for coming there, which, needless to say, left the demon lord perplexed.

"...Uh-huh...First off, As far as I'm concerned, your new name is "Plex". If anyone else wants to call you by a serial number, more power to them, but I'm not gonna waste time doing so. Secondly, welcome. Thirdly, now in addition to a Demon Lord, a Reaper, a Werewolf, a Yokai, Mr. Bones, and two humans, we got an alien directly from MiB involved. ...Anyone bothered to ask the higher-ups what this team is about?" Azeal asked. When it was announced he and Sora were being transferred to being in this team, he didn't bother questioning it. It was two humans, a werewolf, a demon, and a reaper as far as he knew, then he found out yesterday that Cal was going to be a part of this team as well. A bit of an odd addition, but he didn't question it. Now there was a Yokai named Ruby and now a techno-alien sent from MiB. NOW things were starting to feel unusual about all of this.

I have my post ready to go, but I'm waiting on @EurmalEye for the sake of not wanting to skip a person. ^_^

Children of Plunder (Space Pirate RP)

I think everyone left for school and work stuff at this point

@luna558

It's unfortunate, but understandable.

Still despite how long since I made that message, none of the above has made a post...Although @ReusableSword at least made a goodbye post, and thanks for that at least good sir.

Therefore as Promised, unless miss Luna has any other alternatives on how to replace such an amount of people...I will have to close this RP here.

But do not worry, At another time, when the bugs of this RP's problems are Ironed out, I will revive it. ...That, or I complete the OOC of another Space Pirate RP story I've wanted to make, whichever comes first.

Either way, it will likely be in the Casual Section. I will mention each one of you in it no matter what, even the ones who couldn't come back. So do stay tuned.

Until then...

Shiver my timbers, shiver my sails, Dead men tell no tales.

Azeal and Sora

Azeal and Sora looked on as Griffon looked ready to punch out Argo for his...wallet shenanigans. The two remaining silent with Sora nodding to Billy as he tried to ease up the situation.

"Ehh, Yep. Basically." Azeal responded to Argo's question.

The two then saw as Cal introduced himself to those not knowing of him...Though in Azeal's eyes, Cal stands out quite particularly so it's hard to believe that anyone with experience in this place wouldn't have known or at least seen him before.

It was at this time that they saw someone else walk into the Foyer area, a girl with a clearly unprofessional attire and look. The poor chick looks like she just ran off to this place right after getting out of bed, without anything in between the two events. Needless to say, it wasn't a very good first impression of herself as a rookie, as Azeal's right eyebrow was raised...But it wasn't at her. It was at the Werewolf who just decided to speak out against this.

"Griffin, that's not for you to decide. Boss gave her to us for a reason, it would be wise to at least give her a chance to show why." Sora coldly said to Griffin, almost emotionless like a robot, uncaring of the wolf's bad mood. Azeal agreed silently with what Sora was saying, but he also agreed with Griffin despite this. Like the wolf-boy said, compared to the rest of them, this chick certainly didn't look like she'd be the type to throw into a fight with the kind of things they keep from bumping in the night. But then again, at least two of the others were clearly humans, whereas at least she seems to have telepathic hair. ...Whether she can use it in other ways than making it float, or if she even had control over it since it seems to be trying to pull her head off in a specific direction, is another matter entirely. At the very least, despite the first impressions, she doesn't look like the weakest link of the team.

"So...You're the new recruit I heard about. Boss said there'd be one in our team. ...Name's Azeal. The pan holster next to me is Sora. I'm gonna go ahead and assume you've been briefed about what this place is all about, I'd appreciate skipping the boring stuff after all." Azeal bluntly told her.

Azeal and Sora

"We can only hope our team does us more good in the actual football season... then they've showed in the pre-season. And that's it for Sports. In other national news, Police have received reports of yet another violent murder found in the Big Apple earlier in the morning, and have suspected it to be one of the reported "Immaculate Murders" that's been happening as of late across the country, brought on by the Serial Killer known only as "The Vampire". The victim this time was one Dean Silvers, a prime businessman who was vice president of communications within a local IT company New York City, and well-known Political Lobbyist. Police estimate the time of Death being around 1 AM this morning at a hotel room he was staying in. So far, like other cases, there have been no clue as to the suspect of this gruesome murder. However, the police across the country are working around the clock to find and capture him before another kill happens. A warning has been issued to the surrounding cities and state near Manhattan, including our town of Washington DC, to be advised to be cautious, and if you anything suspicious, to contact your local authorities. ...In the local news, Senator-"

Before the sentence was finished, the TV was shut off. Black gloves holding the remote that turned it off, as the black-haired man with the gloves sighed. He was watching the TV in the lounge of the building, standing beside the couch which was completely occupied by a certain sleeping Demon Lord...Still asleep in his black suit, the standard federal agent uniform, the black overcoat not even off him.

Much like Cal, Both Azeal and Sora lived in the HQ rather than having an apartment somewhere in the city. Unlike Cal, it wasn't because of their appearance, considering they look more 'living' than Cal did. (Which is ironic in Sora's case.) Instead, they simply chose to live there for their own reasons.

Though, perhaps in Sora's case "living" at the HQ likely isn't the best way to put it. It's more accurate to say that he's usually nomadic and simply doesn't "have" a place to actually stay. He has a room in the HQ, but no reason to use it. Sora's job as a Reaper prompts him the need to be active 24/7 in an event where someone is going to die, and with that kind of criteria, he and his siblings are always on duty. Because of this, he usually visits hospitals and hospices often so as to be there to pass souls along when their time comes. Of course, he has a Pager on him so that the BoSA would be able to contact him for missions they need him for, at which he makes one of his siblings take over the reaper duties for him. Which is actually why he came back here at this moment, so as to be there for this meeting.

As for Azeal, He lives in the HQ simply because he feels it better that way. He owes the BoSA for helping him out of his predicament, and feels he should be within the vicinity of the building and its people in the event something comes up that requires his attention. Plus, there's the fact that he has made several enemies in the past. He tries to live a life outside of this, there's no telling what'd happen to any neighbors who'd get caught in the crossfire. At least here in the BoSA HQ, he's surrounded by Agents who are capable of fighting back, so he doesn't have that same worry.

That being said, anybody with some experience regarding Azeal's...sleeping tendencies knows of an unwritten and unspoken rule: When Azeal is sleeping on the couch, find somewhere else to sit. When you want to wake the demon, ensure you know your fire safety protocols. Sora, looking at his watch for the time, was about to test this out, with the remote in one hand, and a 10 inch frying pan in the other. He took a deep breath, readying himself for what's about to happen, and began slamming the remote against the Pan, purposefully making a loud sound.

"Time to wake up, Azeal...We got a meeting to get to." Sora said, as he continued. Azeal's eyes tightened in annoyance of the loud whacking sounds waking him up, as a white ball of flames appeared in his hand. He pushed it out towards the source of the sound, the ball turning into a small stream of flames heading for Sora. Immediately, Sora stopped and held the back of the frying pan in front of him as a shield against the flames. The front of the pan had a lid locked into it as what appeared to be Eggs inside the pan was starting to get cooked thanks to the flames that were hitting the pan. The stream lasted for about 5 seconds and then stopped as Azeal clenched his fist, now smoking from the spewed flames.

While Azeal then got up from his lying position, yawning and stretching as he stood up from the couch, Sora placed the pan in front of him and unlocked the lid, revealing the now fried eggs.

"...Perhaps slightly overdone, but still turned out well, I think." Sora said to himself.

"The hell you even cooked for? You don't eat." Azeal asked him.

"Indeed, however, I felt I should make use of your constant flame throwing to my advantage for a method of conveniance. A pan is made to absorb flames heating them from underneath so as to cook whatever's inside, I figured it would make a good flame-absorbant shield, as well as quicker method of cooking. A test that proved quite well, all things considered. That aside, I figured our newer acquaintances would have need for breakfast during our meeting." Sora explained, in a rather monotone voice, and with no smile, as if he was akin to a robot. Azeal, on the other hand, looked at Sora as if he just said something akin to his socks tasting good.

"...A pan...? Walking up in front of me and using a pan to shield you, and make eggs. ...Are all Reapers this mental or were you just some kind of self-destructive defect? ...Look, you're lucky I wasn't using my good flames, so next time just get out of the way like everyone else. Also, 'newer' acquaintances? We've seen these guys all the time, it's just that apparently now the higher ups decided to team us all up for some reason." Azeal said, sighing as he straightened out his suit. Sora simply nodded as he checked the eggs with a fork.

"So, where's the meeting at?" Azeal asked as he began to walk out of the lounge, the Reaper following suit.

"I believe they're currently at the Foyer by now." Sora responded as he followed him.

"I see, and remind me again who these 'teammates' are?" Azeal asked.

"Two gifted humans, a werewolf and...a lich..." Sora said, a hint of disgust spewing out that last word as the grip on the pan tightened.

"And a Reaper, and a Demon Lord. Of all the agents they could've picked to team them up with, it just HAD to be us. Wouldn't be surprised if they wanted to strike us down on sheer principal, not that I'd blame them. ...One of them's that kid with the Exorcist bat, right?"

"Yes, one Detective Billy."

"You know him?"

"I've never physically met him before, but I've heard about his situation."

Walking as they discussed this, they made it to the Foyer where they saw the other members of their team. Sora in particular looked at Cal with a great disdain. While he neutralized his facial emotions, his fist were still clenched while the hand holding the pan's handled tightened its grip.

"...Hey there. ...So I guess the higher-ups made us a team. ...Is this all of us, a 6-man team?" Azeal asked them all.

"And would any of you care for some breakfast?" Sora asked afterwards, extending the pan full of fried eggs.
