[Nexus] HALO 162: One Night In HALO Makes A Hard Man Humble

[The Bushranger]

Quinn smiles to Kevin, before Matt opens his big mouth and makes her frown.
"'She' has a name, you know," she tells the angel, before smiling again. "And just for that, the first arrow you take in your backside is going to be staying in there."

Dani giggles.

========

"Well, it's been a little while. It's probably in storage. It's a bit of a dangerous artifiact, after all," Erin explains to Reynard.

And she would know!

[FireFox]

Kevin blushes even more and stares at the floor.
Matt just scowls at the other paladin. Let's get this clear: I have every reason to dislike you. If you had your way, my father would have never met my mother and I wouldn't even exist.


Dangerous? Anything is dangerous if handled by a fool. He smirks. Are you a fool, Erin?

[The Bushranger]

"What? You're here now, aren't you?" Quinn responds, once more frowning. "So clearly either you have no idea what you're talking about, I have no idea what you're talking about, or both."

===

"Oh, I don't know. Should I go try and find a jester outfit?" Erin quips, smirking as well. "I'm not one. Unless I want to be."

[Lady Serpentine]

"I don't care if you hate each other, but you need to work together until we're done with the job. If you can't, fine, but she's not the one staying behind in that case."

[FireFox]

Fifteen years from now, Tobias Vulpan marries the angel Orianna and they have me. Since I'm sure you're happily married to your past version of Tobias, you probably don't want that to happen. Just like when he first met Sept, Matt has a strong dislike for the wives of Tobias who aren't his mother.


I'm sure you would look highly appealing in a harlequin outfit, but if you would show me the machine, that would be greatly appreciated.

[The Bushranger]

Matt will probably see the light bulb going on over Quinn's head at this point. As Dani gasps quietly.

"...no, but what will happen, will happen. If I am to die in ten or so years, then so be it."

He'll then see the paladin stepping forwards to give the angel a hug!


==

Erin chuckles, and gives Reynard a wink. "Oh, I suppose there's no harm in it. If you'll follow me?"

And she turns to lead the way to a storage room. Hips swaying.

[FireFox]

Matt holds out his arm to keep Quinn back. Whatever. Let's just do this mission. I'm professional enough to make sure you don't die today, at least.

Kevin clears his throat, still blushing. I don't hate you Quinn. From what I can remember, your daughter was my first crush.


The Trickster follows Erin, keeping an eye on her.

[Lady Serpentine]

Adrin/S'Kanthos appears. He's needed to send them there.

Karyana just shakes her head. Of all the people in the Nexus, she had to hire two that hated each other, and on top of that, hire them as fairly vital parts of the team.

[The Bushranger]

Quinn steps back, looking a little dissapointed. But nods.
Then smiles at Kevin, and can't help but giggle a little.
"You know, I'm pretty sure the thought is reprociated as well, judging by how she sighs a little whenever she talks about you."

===

Erin doesn't mind eyes on her!
And they arrive at the storage room, where she opens the door, and a crate inside is stamped "D.O.M." and "THIS SIDE UP".

[FireFox]

Kevin shuckles. I wonder how that will have had turned out. The grammar there seems right to me.


Reynard will either stand close to Erin while she removes the machine from the crate, or will just open it up himself.

[InyutheBeatIs]

Chris suddenly wakes up, standing up from the couch and looking around somewhat confused. "I just missed something really important, didn't I?"

[Beans]

Carrie watches the Quinn-Matt cage match with vague consternation.
---

Tsiln, meanwhile, comes home from "work", sore and tired.

[Lady Serpentine]

Karyana heads over to Zwei and Carrie.

[Beans]

... What's going on now?
... Um...

[Lady Serpentine]

"We're waiting for everything to settle down, and everyone to be undeadtimed."

Then Carrie "um..."s.

"Is something wrong?"

(She's not in combat form anymore, by the way.)

((You're needed in the Temperaments thing, also.))

[Beans]

No, just wondered what was happening.
She shrugs.

How've you been, Karyana?

[Lady Serpentine]

"Good. Complicated at times, but good."

[InyutheBeatIs]

Chris is currently scratching his head, still thinking that he missed something.

[Beans]

That's good.
She smiles.
Who's that half-elf girl, a friend of yours?
---
Tsiln waves wearily to Chris.

[InyutheBeatIs]

Tsiln waves wearily to Chris.

Chris waves back at her. "Hello. How are you?"

[Lady Serpentine]

That's good.
She smiles.
Who's that half-elf girl, a friend of yours?

"You could say that. She's our girlfriend."

[Devixer]

Ashley smiles, and waves to Carrie.

[Beans]

Carrie nods.
Oh, that's nice.

Hi, I'm Carrie. Nice to meet you. She turns to Ashley.
---
A bit tired, but I'm alright.
How are you?

[Devixer]

"Name's Ashley. It's a pleasure to meet you, Carrie."

[Lady Serpentine]

Karyana smiles, and waits for the moment.

[InyutheBeatIs]

A bit tired, but I'm alright.
How are you?

"A bit tired myself, actually. But then again, I just woke up, so there's that." Chris chuckled a bit. Chris then points towards Tsiln. "You're Tsiln, right?"

[Beans]

That's right. You'd be Chris, I think?
The daemon gal nodnods.
---
Nice to see things are working out for you all.

[InyutheBeatIs]

That's right. You'd be Chris, I think?
The daemon gal nodnods.

"That's right." Chris grins, and extends his hand out towards Tsiln. "Nice to meet you."

[Devixer]

"Thank you. I suppose I should thank Karyana and Zwei as well, for taking me in." Ashley looks around at all the other people going on this mission.

[Beans]

Handyshake!
Your wife is very kind not to have sent me back when she first summoned me.
---
Zwei puts an arm around her.

Yeah...
So, what kinda stuff do you do?
