<DeathStar> Date: 10-639.4.12
<DeathStar> Location: Military EarthGov Base
<DeathStar> 6* The past few days nothing much has been going on while waiting for one of the Billys to show up. Other than that, it has been just getting adjusted to Maybe Dias being around - aka The Mask. Katherine admits she is not really that much of a counselor but looks into it, so Lemon has called Katrina to look into him, and so they wait for her, too
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *sits, with a chart, eyeing Mask*
<Seraphna> * Tabetha peers blankly at the chart, nodding.
<DeathStar> *Zephyr and Darien sit in the background, arms crossed*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'm going to ask you some questions. Try to answer with the first thing that comes to your mind
<ChadWinters> 6Mask sits in his chair, indian style. 1"Burgers."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *takes her own notes*
* ChadWinters leans against a wall, watching
<Seraphna> * Angela sips tea.
<kalonZombee> 6*Mi'Na stares
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> <...He's already lost, isn't he?>
<Seraphna> Angela> <Maybe.>
<DeathStar> *Katrina writes something down*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Wait...No...Apples. 6He looks at Katrina.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> No second answers. Anyway. *she holds up a picture of Marcus*
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "He needs to take it seriously." *notes without looking up form her own pad*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Broski
<DeathStar> *Katrina writes something down, then a picture of muscles*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Who even uses Broski?
<ChadWinters> He's being told to say the first thing that comes to mine. I doubt there's much filtering going on.
<ChadWinters> (mind)
<ChadWinters> 6Mask leans forward towards it. 1"Challenge?"
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Admit it, Mr. Starr... it is something that Dias really would say."
<DeathStar> *Katrina jots it down. She spends a while doing manly words, then holds up a cute kitten*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Tree's. Always needing rescueing from trees. A staple for all heroes. 6He crosses his arms proudly
<DeathStar> *Katrina nods then shows a picture of a woman's breasts*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I doubt even knows what those are
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Boooooobs. Mammories. The grand teton's
<Seraphna> * Angela rolls her eyes.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *looks up* "...well... he's about as subtle as Dias."
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> <Angela, you know damn well that you'd respond similarly.>
<ChadWinters> 6Mask then goes on to list their exact measurements
<DeathStar> *Katrina finishes, then has Mask lean back and talk about his childhood, his feelings about Marcus, how he truly feels about X. She digs at him like only a counselor could*
<DeathStar> <Cherry> ... s-should we be listening to this?
<DeathStar> <X> No no. I want to hear this
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> Well that makes one of us. 6*Mi'Na walks off to give Mask his privacy
<DeathStar> *X eats grapes, leaning back*
<Seraphna> Angela> It has entertainment value.
<kalonZombee> 6*Mi'Na closes the bond since Angela is staying behind to watch
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Oh man....Most of my childhood went by in no time. It's like I woke up a teenager to a bunch of people staring at me naked in a tube. 6He begins to give details about being raised by Zephyr, how he found thinkgs about her cool and then also weird.
<ChadWinters> *things*
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus steps in at some point during all this, staying towards the back with his arms crossed.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *makes some notes and then glances back at Zephyr*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Cutest little butt though. But incredibly mean. Oh the books she forced me to read.
<DeathStar> *Zephyr jerks* M-Mean
<DeathStar> *Zephyr walks off*
<Seraphna> * Angela sighs and goes after her sister.
<DeathStar> *Katrina nods, jotting answers*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I doubt we'll see Zephyr for a while
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Oh Marcus, the twinkle in my eyes, the first man child I raised up to become a wonderful hero. You could say he was the Robin to my Batman, minus the weird unitard and awkward underwear on the outisde thing.
<DeathStar> *Katrina peers back at Marcus, amusement there, then goes back to writing, drawing Marcus in a Robin outfit* Mmhmm?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Seems to have hit a nerve."
<DeathStar> <Cherry> *whispers to Marcus* And this is your friend
<ChadWinters> <Mask> The joy and fun we had getting stronger together. Had our bumps here and there but that's what all heroes need on their journey.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> He's not wrong, I wouldn't be the man I am today if not fo rhim.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> It seems you really love Marcus. In a friend kind of way
<DeathStar> *she notes*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Of course. If it wasn't for him, who knows where I'd be right now. 6He holds his hand up in a fist. 1"And that brings us to X. She was the second biggest challenge I'd ever faced against."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *she holds up a kinsey chart to Mask, explaining it's meaning and suggests that when it comes to Marcus, he might fall a little close to 6*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> I don't know what those words mean....
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Just trust me
<ChadWinters> <Mask> But yes, we are definetly exclusively homospaiens
<ChadWinters> *homosapiens*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh yes. Yes you are. *grins*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> So you just see X as a challenge?
<ChadWinters> <Mask> At first, then I fell in love. 6He shifts his right leg up and rests/bounces his left leg over it. 1"And isn't love one of the greatest challenges we have to face?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> He knows some big words there. Homosapians.
<DeathStar> *X blushes at the love comment.* Huh. *she muses and moves off to get some water* Huh
<ChadWinters> Probably read it somewhere on a bumper sticker.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, thank you for answering my comments. *she rises and hands Marcus her evaluation* I will talk to the President later and compare his answers with these
<DeathStar> *Katrina smiles and moves to go*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> But as all heroes journeys progress, one must feel pain in order to grow and....6He looks over at Katrina. 1"But I'm learning so much about myself. Don't leave me."
<Seraphna> Tabetha> To be fair there are very few homosapiens even in this room. Well, homo sapien sapiens.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "He has been known to have idiot's genius at times."
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus nods to Katrina, a bit stiff despite his more recent attempts to be a bit more active with JM. He looks down at the evaluation.
<ChadWinters> 6Mask looks between Marcus and Katrina. 1"So did I ace it? 100 percent without fail?!"
<DeathStar> *The answers seem to indicat a high chance he could be Dias, but notes a practiced shapeshifter might could fake the answers too*
<DeathStar> *she will know more after the President's interview to compare the two*
<DeathStar> <X> So Chad
<Xanatos> <Marcus> You did well. But she has more evaluations to do.
<DeathStar> <X> Have you learned anything with your searching into the Lev case?
* ChadWinters looks over towards X. 1"I've got a list of the best case scenarios for NGW's and known Weapons."
<DeathStar> <X> Oh?
<DeathStar> *X sits down* So who do you think it is?
* ChadWinters nods. 1"It's on the board in the meeting room."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *stands up and walks out of the room woth her pad*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Sweet! I also feel a lot better, like a weight lifted off my shoulders.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> *shrugs and goes to review data*
<DeathStar> *suddenly, there's a dark poof and the Elder Billy, who looks a lot like normal Billy, with some gray in her hair, appears, setting suitcases down*
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> I was called!
<DeathStar> *Cherry jerks, eyeing one of the Billys and begins to slink off*
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> Did someone just bamf in here?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Hello there old lady. 6* He puts a hand on Cherry's shoudler.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> Oh, that is cute. *she tugs on Mi'Na's cheeks*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> IT'S A BILLY! 6He flips on to his feet
* ChadWinters starts listing off the top likely Weapons that fit the mark to X
<Seraphna> * Angela is off with Zephyr still, being a good sister. While Tabetha peeks back in.
<DeathStar> <X> I'll have them brought in and questioned then
<kalonZombee> 6*Mi'Na just deadpan looks at Billy
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *enters the base and signs in* "I'm here."
<DeathStar> *Elder Billy turns to face the others, while Cherry eyes Marcus holds her there, huffing*
<ChadWinters> That obviously doesn't include any Weapons/NGW's that never made it on any official books
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> Reikana. *she hugs her* How are you doing?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Uhhh.... hi, mom. I'm ok."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Billy we've got a bit of a situation. 6* He points to Mask
<ChadWinters> 6Mask waves
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> *she keeps an arm around Reikana, the calmer of the Billys, being from Elwyn and Kellin's future timeline*
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> Tell me
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Dark One hijinks."
<DeathStar> *she studies the mask*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> We suspect this was placed on him to delay us while the dark one dopplegangers did...well whatever they're wanting to do.
<ChadWinters> 6Mask slowly raises his finger up to poke Elder's Billy's face
<DeathStar> *Darien holds up the Yasha mask*
<DeathStar> *Elder Billy has a dark tentacle spank Mask*
<ChadWinters> 6Mask squeels
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> Hm, is that what you think. *she eyes the mask Darien is holding* I see.
<DeathStar> *Zephyr comes back in, wearing sunglasses*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "I saw Dark One tech lines in this thing."
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> You are very observant. *she praises Reikana*
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Will you have to probe him deeply?
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> I am afraid that what I have to tell you might not be good news, Marcus, but I will tell you what you want to know. *her tentacle yanks Cherry ober*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> No probing. Never the probing!
<Xanatos> <Marcus> News is news. It's at least more information than where we've been.
<Seraphna> * Angela comes in with Zephyr, then moves over to Cherry.
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> Hello love.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> *she then taces the 16 lines on Cherry's body, then traces the lines on the mask* These are Dark One supression ... *she looks for the word* Lets go with "magic". The lines on Cherry is used to supress her Dark One nature, and allow her to be her true age - an adult - without going out of control
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "But someone obviously weaponized it."
<ChadWinters> <Mask> I told you this thing is keeping me from being awesome!
<Seraphna> Angela> Hey dear.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> *she traces the lines on Yasha's mask* We can assume the supression lines on the mask here might be used to weaken the person, body lock them, weaken their dark one powers, or other things. It might could be used against a Progenitor in a rare case
<DeathStar> *Elder Billy turns toward Mask* So you either have a case of this mask is supressing a Dark One, or it is supressing someone's power
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> So good luck figuring out which is which
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Knowing Dias' connection to darkheart, could it supress that? I was never clear if that was dark one power or something...else.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Teasing him we were able to see the mask seeming suppressing his mass ability in waves...
<Seraphna> *seemingly suppresses
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> It is possible. *she nods in agreement*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> What if I suppress it's suppressingness?
<DeathStar> *the tentacle wiggles at him, as if threateningly*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> EEEK! 6He leaps backwards at the tentacle
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> *to Reikana* If you want to keep him in line, just remember this tool
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> When I was younger, I should have used them more to kidnap Marcus
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Is there any way to remove it? Even if it's a dark one I'd rather fight it now, kill it, and be done with it.
<DeathStar> <Cherry> ... *deadpans* Was everyone after you?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...why Marcus?"
<ChadWinters> <Mask> He was a wanted man, Cher-bear. Everyone wanted what I saw in him
<Seraphna> Angela> *wraps an arm around Cherry* Gotta beware his charms.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Billy is one of my oldest friends, when we hung out I'd let her get up to all sorts of hijinks that Cass and Sets would not approve of.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> Because he and Dias spared my life. Lets just say that shocked my young Dark heart
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> First kindness I experienced
<ChadWinters> 6Mask holds his arms open for a hug. 1"That's because kindness is the 5th strongest attack I have."
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus pauses, his lip quivering slightly and he turns to face the wall for a second.
<kalonZombee> 6*Mi'Na giggles at Angela
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> *eyes Mask warily, and lets the tentacle hug him* Way to remove it...
<Seraphna> Angela> Oh my, Marcus are you getting all ready eyed?
<ChadWinters> <Mask> He's not crying Angela, you're crying.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> I could fly him up to the Earth's atmosphere and throw him at the Earth. They might break it. <Darien> And him.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> True. I'll stick around and work on how to remove the mask
<ChadWinters> 6Mask hugs the tentacles back. 1"Or I might break the Earth.
<DeathStar> *Cherry pats Marcus*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I was overwhelmed. 6* He says simply in response to Angela after he not so discreetly wipes his eyes and turns back to the group.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "So how did they get that one off?" *points at the Yasha mask*
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> If I had to guess. *She eyes the Yasha mask* This mask for some reason...
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> Oh, is that what they're calling it now Marcus?
<DeathStar> <Elder Mask> Might have already been damaged when put on Yasha. Meaning 1) They wanted Yasha to be found with the mask 2) Yasha got lucky
<Seraphna> Angela> Well I was always a sucker for the sensitive ones.
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> Then explain me, Angela
<DeathStar> *Cherry studies Marcus but lets him have his moment without comment from her*
<Seraphna> Angela> Which sensitive part should I name first dear?
<DeathStar> *Darien eyes Mi'Na and Angela*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> I've tried punching the mask off, wouldn't come off.
<DeathStar> <Darien> .... get a room
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "What would they gain from number one?"
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> You heard him, dear~ 6*She picks up Angela and walks off with her
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> Throw suspicion off a fake Yasha, duh!
<Seraphna> Darien> *peers Darien up and down, raising a brow*
<DeathStar> *Elder Billy grins*
<Seraphna> * Angela
<Seraphna> (Wow)
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "What now?"
<Seraphna> * Angela squeaks as she’s carried off. “Again?”
<DeathStar> *Darien sighs at the two*
<DeathStar> *The Elder Billy moves off to set up a room to begin work*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Well thank you Billy, if we can get this off them we'll at least know what we're dealing with. Actually I had a plan if we do get it off...a way to see who's the real Dias.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> I will get to work on finding ways to remove the mask without melting Mask Boy's face off
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus glances around at the others.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh? How?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Let's just have them fight, that should answer it.
<DeathStar> <Darien> How..... simply simple
<ChadWinters> <Mask> What's that?" 6He looks over Marcus. 1"A no hold's bar fight?!"
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Wouldn’t that blow the lid on this?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "I'll be in the lounge." Starts walking*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Yep. But really I'm tired of the lid staying on it. Let's get the mask off and then have them go at it, last one standing is the real Dias. Or first one to become a dark one is the fake dias, whichever is first.
<DeathStar> <Darien> And if the real Dias loses?
<ChadWinters> <Mask> A hero never loses
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I mean, the real Dias wouldn't.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... I am too old for this shit
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus gives a big shrug, tapping his nose as he points to Mask and then steps out
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> -1 day later-
<DeathStar> 6* Elder Billy chats with Reikana in the makeshift lab she has made, Mask tied up as she drills into the mask, then lasers the mask, then pours acid on it
<DeathStar> *X goes over the Weapon list, sending data to Marcus now and gain
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> It's like we're watching a horror movie.
<ChadWinters> <Mask> That tickles.....AIEEEE!
<Seraphna> Angela> *eats popcorn*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...have you ever done this before?"
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> Not really. So, Reikana. Are you and your girlfriend getting closer?
<DeathStar> *Ren stays out in the lounge, not wanting to listen to the screams*
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus nods, going over some of the data on his datapad.
<Seraphna> * Tabetha sits by Marcus.
* ChadWinters stands in the meeting room, going over the lists again, making some adjustments here and there on it
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...that's personal, mom."
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Is my face skin supposed to tingle?!
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> I take that as a yes. Congrats
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Is your daughter blossoming in to a woman?!
<DeathStar> *X rises and moves to sit by Marcus*
<Seraphna> Angela> Maybe it needs more acid?
<DeathStar> <X> I think it's time
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Gaaaaaah! Not in front of Masked-Dias!"
<DeathStar> <X> I agree with the government - it's no Weapon or NGW on file that did this
<DeathStar> <X> Whoever grabbed this was too organized
<DeathStar> *was
<DeathStar> *Them
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> Maybe more of the drill.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Yes. You're right.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> You feel tingling?
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus hits a button on the datapad and stands up, rubbing his face.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> *she jots notes* That might mean something
<Seraphna> * Tabetha nods quietly.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> *she smiles and pats Reikana, letting her go for now, and frees Mask*
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> I will buy stronger acid
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *shuffles out and to the lounge*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Or not, definetly not with the stronger acid part.
<Seraphna> Angela> We’ve got stuff for scoring steel.
<DeathStar> *Lemon peers at her desk and riseS*
<DeathStar> <X> I think we should simply ask right now and see how he reacts
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Considering everything...
<DeathStar> *Lemon calls Tabetha to meet her*
<DeathStar> *Elder Billy peers up at people moving about*
<Seraphna> * Tab blinks and gets up. “Cheryl needs me.” *she heads over to see Lemon*
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Hey Billy, what's with all the commotion?
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus nods and moves for the meeting room.
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> Not sure
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Want to free me so we can find out?!
<DeathStar> <Billy> Already untied you
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Tabetha. I want you to be ready to read a mind when we ask a question.
<ChadWinters> <Mask> You're so quick. 6He swoons towards her and flips off the torture table
<DeathStar> *Lemon notes*
<Seraphna> * Tabetha nods.
<DeathStar> *Darien looks up from his desk, popping pills with Warren, the two getting high*
<DeathStar> <X> Lead the way, Marc
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus waits for everyone to gather as he stand by Chad, looking at the list.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> So you actually think of these did it?
<Jackieness> <Myria> *pops up beside Bill and Mask* "Oh, am I too late for the siciencing of the mask off?"
<Xanatos> (one of*)
<ChadWinters> The more I cross reference the readings to what their powers were originally recorded at, no.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Why are none of your weapons on this list?
<DeathStar> <Elder Billy> You'll have to recatch him
<ChadWinters> Because I wanted to keep them off any reports. And if I gave them to you, you wouldn't believe the data I gave you anyways, correct?
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Fufufufuuuu..." *goes hunting for Masked-Dias*
<DeathStar> *Ren peers at Chad, then the team*
<DeathStar> <X> We would like access to them and to interview them
* ChadWinters sets his stylus down as he turns to look at Marcus, and those gathered.
<DeathStar> <X> Especially Weapon XIII
<ChadWinters> It's been awhile since I've been in contact with them. 6He looks over at X now. 1"Why XIII?"
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Actually if you had said 'Hey, these powers are similar to some of my underlings let's see if they went off the reservation, which has happpened before.' Then yeah I would've believed you, but instead you wasted our fucking time.
<Seraphna> * Tabetha keeps her fingers to her forehead, listening this whole time as asked.
* ChadWinters looks over at Marcus now. 1"I see. Very well. I'll get the data you want, and I'll see about XIII."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Why wouldn't you be in contact with them?
<DeathStar> <X> Because XIII went off on her own before, she might have before.
<DeathStar> <X> I know she rejoined your group in the end but who knows if she has gone rogue again
* ChadWinters looks at Marcus as if he's an idiot for a brief moment. 1"Because you and Lemon are trying to build a legitimate group. Do you really want something like that attached to it?"
<Seraphna> * Angela keeps eating her popcorn.
<kalonZombee> 6*Mi'Na steals some and eats it
<kalonZombee> <Mi'Na> <...Jalapeno white cheddar? You do love me.>
<Xanatos> <Marcus> So you haven't had contact with Cel, Durt, or your little floating ball thing this whole time? Each group they're on is IN contact with us you know?
<ChadWinters> Id? I keep in contact with it, yes. Cel and Durt do talk to me once in awhile, but they're on their own journey now.
<DeathStar> *Zephyr shivers at the naming scheme*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> ....you really called it Id?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Are you fucking stupid?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> One moment
<DeathStar> *Zephyr steps out for the second time in two days*
<DeathStar> <X> Guess I'm missing something. *since I think Id was before her time*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Id was this alternate personality of dumbass here who did some really fucked up shit.
<Seraphna> Angela> "Think an even more Chad version of Chad."
<DeathStar> <X> Oh. *nods* The original Weapon I. Right
<Seraphna> * Tabetha sits and closes her eyes, burning some mind points. Extra out of care for her team.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Anyway, all I wanted was some info on your weapons, but you claiming you haven't spoken with them really seems suspicious to me.
<ChadWinters> Nosce te Ipsum. 6He clasps his hands infront of him. 1"So, anything else you want to know?"
<DeathStar> <Lemon> A-Anyway. If we could if we could just interview them would be useful
<DeathStar> <Lemon> *she notes, being diplomatic*
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Then we can move onto finding unlisted Weapons
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Wonder if someone caught Id going through their panty drawer and fragged it."
<ChadWinters> It'll take me some time, but I'd prefer it at the other place.
* ChadWinters pauses a bit, peering around at the people, his eyes clearly searching for a specific person
<DeathStar> <Ren> Is that how Chad gets his panty shots?
<DeathStar> *she muses*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Must be."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Problem?
<Seraphna> * Angela sits back, tilting her head.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> We can do it at the safe hous--- *she pauses*
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Chad?
* ChadWinters looks over at Lemon, giving her a very Chad look. 1"I see. Yes, that would be appreciated."
<Seraphna> * Tabetha opens her eyes, frowning.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Alright then. We will have the interviews at the safehouse
<DeathStar> *she nods to everyone*
<DeathStar> *then moves off*
<DeathStar> <X> *studies Chad, clearly not in the loop on the scans, thinking something is up and moves off*
<ChadWinters> Anything else, Marcus? 6He looks over to him
<DeathStar> *Lemon waits by her desk, musing*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Why did it take you literal days to find out something that I discovered in 10 minutes of digging?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Are you just THAT bad at your job?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> If so, maybe we need to discuss your retirement.
<Seraphna> * Angela raises a brow, eating more popcorn.
<ChadWinters> Because paperwork like this is useful.
<kalonZombee> 6*Mi'Na keeps eating Angela's popcorn
<Xanatos> <Marcus> You're dismissed.
* ChadWinters nods to Marcus. 1"Understood."
<DeathStar> *Adeline, back at the safehouse, hacked into their systems, leans back, having watched all the drama from the cameras, unplugging lest Kane or Marcus or even Chad notices her in the system, leaning back to muse on what to do with this situation*
<DeathStar> <Adeline> *then goes back to working on the President/Mask situation*
<DeathStar> <Lemon> *once Tabetha is back at her desk*
<DeathStar> <Lemon> What did the surface scans say?
* ChadWinters moves off and out of the meeting room, heading towards his room
<Seraphna> Tabetha> "They came off as honest... but I got a sense of the honesty being factual rather than emotional honesty. It could be a tactic to mask the truth in a far more subtle way than the usual card counting or other thought blockers. So... I went deeper."
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Deeper? That is risky.... the subject usually notices... *she frowns* What did that say?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *heads to the lounge* "I miss the old base... nothing to do at this one..."
<DeathStar> <Ren> We could install an arcade
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Nothing, he has a psionic inhibitor blocking the deeper parts of his consciousness."
<ChadWinters> 6Mask is in the lounge, pushing furniture around
<DeathStar> *Ren watches Mask*
<DeathStar> *Lemon lets out a breath, peering at Marcus for his thoughts*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I was all willing to believe one of his weapons went rogue again, I mean it happened before and being under him who can blame them you know? But saying he hasn't talked to them...
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Like hell I believe that.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Like there is room for that... ... ...hey, stop messing up the lounge!"
<Seraphna> Tabetha> "One usually does not need to lie to themselves unless they were masking the truth."
<ChadWinters> <Mask> It messes up my feng shui. 6He stops, looking over at Rei
<DeathStar> <Ren> It does?
<DeathStar> *Katrina pokes her head in* Hello!
<ChadWinters> <Mask> ....Yes! 6He sounds like he's convincing himself and he starts moving some other things around
<DeathStar> *she chimes* I got your results! Man the President gabbed my ears off
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus pauses, glancing over at Kat.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> So what's the verdict?
<DeathStar> *she sets her latest results down, then sits, crossing her legs, then picks up a paper*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, for one thing, there is differences, some big, some small.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus checks the results.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> From my limited time with him it really felt like the president was off, even with Stacey's influence.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> For example, how he answered some questions. Like he didn't interrupt me like Mask did by blurting out an answer.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Which is unlike the old Dias.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> For Marcus, he didn't answer Broski, but BFF
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Best Fucking Friend
<DeathStar> <Katrina> He got glared our for the fucking bit, BTW
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Does... Dias... curse ever? He says stupid and inane things but that seems almost shockingly...
<DeathStar> <Katrina> The muscles, he said strength
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Hm.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I don't think Dias has said the f word very often, for what it's worth.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> For many of the other answers, he was very close, with only 70% of them being off, and the other 30% being exact
<DeathStar> <Katrina> The kitten one was exact, scarily
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Actually that one was predictable.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Do note the 70% being off was just phrasing
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Like I walked down the street versus I ran down the street
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Phrasing is important though.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> True. I am just noting it. At lot of the time the phrasing was much more diplomatic in nature
<ChadWinters> 6Mask moves over and picks up Ren, setting her somewhere then moves to pick up Rei and set her somewhere
<DeathStar> <Ren> H-Hey
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "What are you doing?!"
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Feng shui? 6He states questiongly
<DeathStar> <Katrina> For example, when asked about his background.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...how is thsi feng shui?"
<ChadWinters> 6Mask looks over at Rei, then at what amounts to pure chaos of where he put things. 1"H-How isn't it?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> "My childhood went by in no time. I was a teenager immediately being stared at by people without clothes on in a tube. Though Zephyr, uh, did her best to teach me"
<Seraphna> * An'Mi steps in and flaps over Rei and Ren's laps. "Good Fung Chewy."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> And refused to say more
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Are you even a licensed feng shui practitioner?!"
* ChadWinters steps in to Lemon's office where everyones at.
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Wait, you have to be licensed?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> So, I guess the question is, has our Dias actually grown and the dark ones have an older version of him, or is there no growth and dias is just dias?
<DeathStar> <Ren> ... *eyes Mask* You just like grabbing thigns!!
<Seraphna> * An'Mi holds out a card to Mask. "Official Lisence Tester. Call for training."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> He gushed about Marcus pretty much the same, and when it came to X he was coy, saying that was private
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Though he should call her sometime. Making a phone motion with his fingers to Stacy, then a combat motion
<DeathStar> <Katrina> So there you go
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Yeah because there are so many crazies trying to rip people off, so the official feng shui organization ceritfies and licenses practitoners."
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Well I don't charge money for things I do. 6He nods proudly, punching the air.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Hm. It could also be the Dark Ones only know the original Dias I suppose
<DeathStar> *Lemon muses* Or maybe the Dark Ones made up a new President Dias to get their own agenda done
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Either way I want the mast off because I'm tired of the double shit and I'm ready to bash someone's face in.
<ChadWinters> So we're unfortunately not any closer to an answer?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "In other words... you have no idea what you are doing."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Well, I think there is one way to figure it out
<ChadWinters> <Mask> But this makes me feel better, so I do.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Marcus should fight President Dias and see what his power is like
<DeathStar> *Katrina rises and smiles, stepping out* That is my consult, and I charge by the hour
<ChadWinters> Think you'd be up for a fight like that, Marcus?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Yeah, alright that sounds like a plan. See you next time ex-wife. 6* he says, trying a bit of humor despite his grumpy mood*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...are you going to put it back?"
<DeathStar> *Katrina smiles*
<DeathStar> <Ren> ... I doubt he even remembers how it goes back
<ChadWinters> <Mask> Why would I want to put it back to that sad state of chaos it was in before? It's better now
<DeathStar> <Lemon> I just hope this doesn't blow in our face. *she notes*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> So next up we question some of Chad's people and then I go punch the president in the face. Fun fun.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Then I must use my secret power..."
<DeathStar> <Lemon> All in a days work
<DeathStar> <Ren> Oh der
<DeathStar> *she eyes Reikana*
<Seraphna> * An'Mi looks between Rei and Ren.
<ChadWinters> It'll be a few days at the least. 6He notes to Lemon and Marcus
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *hops on to her feet*
<DeathStar> <Lemon> It will give us time for Marcus to get ready for the President
<DeathStar> <Lemon> I am sure he will want it to be a big event
<ChadWinters> 6Mask looks over at Reikana. 1"You got a secret power?
<ChadWinters> If Stacey allows it.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *shifts into dominatrix-mode Noire*
<Jackieness> <Noire> *flicks her wrist, forming a tentacle-whip* "Let's play."
<ChadWinters> 6Mask quickly slips into a defensive stance. Then points behind her and runs off
<DeathStar> <Ren> Your mom was right
<DeathStar> -END-
