Week 2


[It's been about a week since the Champions woke up in their new consumerist hellscape of a temporary home and, despite a few odd goings on and the bomb incident with Church and Nari, things haven't been as bad as they could be. No one is even dead yet! But let's see how long that lasts.

Enjoy your week, Champions.]







(( Also, don't forget to submit your AC and item rolls! You can also bother your Overseer here. ))

[Church looks run down and, frankly, like shit, but like better shit. He's got a scarf tied in a way that he's using it like a sling for his arm.

Do you know what the best thing for someone still recovering from a traumatic injury to do is? Fiddle around in Roombaville with some help from Universe. The result is him making attempts to ride roombas around. Sitting, standing/surfing, trying to tie a couple together or make a little platform--you know he's gonna fall, right? Cuz he is. Like a dumbass.

At some point he realizes that he's got coins for the giant...gumball machine? thing? in Flavortown? So...might as well roll the gacha and see what's what. But he's got several coins, and--oh look, he's got a little reusable shopping bag from Moonglow on a roomba to carry stuff.]
...Holy shit. [That looks like a sniper rifle, but nerf-ified. His eyes have anime sparkles. Pray to your gods now.

He also is definitely meandering at night. Listlessly. Aimlessly. No reason. It's fine. (He wants to see these stupid mecha Paul Blarts.)]

[hey there what's up]

He mentioned they were sight-based. Keep an eye out for anything to duck behind and we'll see how 'not very clever' these things are.

Just remember the rules on damaging things presumably apply to them. Don't do anything stupid.
motherfucking_ghost: (you're way too sure of yourself)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-11 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[RAISED EYEBROW] Do you ever actually sleep?

I'm not gonna hurt it. Probably. But like, 'escort'? C'mon, what's it gonna do, nudge me in the ankles like a cat? Oh, wow, I'm so scared.
burninglight: (if the oracle can heal)

[personal profile] burninglight 2018-02-11 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Recently? Yes. Other times I sense impending stupidity and choose to intervene.
motherfucking_ghost: (really shouldn't add to my confusion)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-11 06:56 pm (UTC)(link)
So which is this, you just not sleeping or intervening with impending stupidity?
motherfucking_ghost: (ain't that something)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-11 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, go fuck yourself.

Is that any way to speak to your doctor?

[....Well, she was worried about Church before. Why change that now?]

Church? Are... you alright? [Let's just step over those roombas... and offer a hand up. You okay, my dude]
motherfucking_ghost: (look at this goober)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-12 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
[These floors are hard and he has one arm that he should be using. If he cracks his head open, it's his own stupid fault. This time, at least he's laughing at himself.]

Ow. Yeah, I'm good. [Yes please hand up.] Mostly. This was not as easy as I expected it to be.
tokencanadian: (Default)

[personal profile] tokencanadian 2018-02-12 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Laughing is either good or bad, depending on how you look at the fall.

She helps pull him up. Slowly. Safety first.
] What... was it you expected it to be? Exactly?
motherfucking_ghost: (really shouldn't add to my confusion)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-12 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
Dude, do you have--ow, my fucking elbow--do you know how great it would be to turn these roombas into a legit form of transportation? The hoverboards of the future, except, y'know, minus the hovering.

...Unless these hover and they're so close to the ground you can't tell. Huh...
tokencanadian: (Default)

[personal profile] tokencanadian 2018-02-12 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
...Huh. Well, I never really thought about it that way. [And why would she.] Collecting all of these so you can use them as a transportation device does seem very possible.

[she puts on her most genuine smile.]

Where did you come up with this idea?
motherfucking_ghost: (ain't that something)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-12 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Boredom is the mother of invention.

Also, I mean, if it moves, you could like...use it like a skateboard! Kinda. Do we have wheelchairs? I don't even know, but we could make a roombachair, maybe. And also, if I gotta carry stuff around with two hands... [Nothing heavy, any, not for a bit.]

That night

[Varric's coming back from taking care of "important business" when he spots Church. He tries to tell himself the concern that twists his gut has to do with what happened to the man the previous week, but there's no denying that the blighted Rule 7 is on his mind.

Still, his posture is lax and his smile wide as he approaches the injured man.]


Keeping a handle on yourself, Sister?
motherfucking_ghost: (ain't that something)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-12 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
Uuuuuugh, lame. If I'd actually lost the hand, that'd be way funnier. And my body's probably gonna hate me in the morning, but man, I gotta see these robot things for myself.

Think I'm not the only one with the idea.
neverheardofhim: (did you fart?)

[personal profile] neverheardofhim 2018-02-12 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
So you've got a burning desire to see them? [He's trying to keep quiet but... listen. He thinks he's pretty hilarious.]

I'd say it's a bad idea, all of us walking around trying to spot them but, 'know thy enemy,' right?
motherfucking_ghost: (yeah. that's right. I'm a gay robot.)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-12 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
[snerk Okay that one's good.]

Look at it this way: the more of us out here, the more of us here in case something happens. Witnesses and help.
neverheardofhim: (let me tell you why you're a little bitc)

[personal profile] neverheardofhim 2018-02-12 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
[Okay, he got a laugh, he's good now.]

And if we split up, there's no way they can kill all of us. Probably.
motherfucking_ghost: (ain't that something)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-12 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
I really don't think they're gonna kill us. Dander's been as up and up as he can be. And he thinks this is bullshit, too.

Don't get me wrong. I hate him, and being in the same building as him makes what's left of my skin crawl, but if he says they're basically harmless then he thinks that. Maybe his supers are lying to him, but so far we can't prove that to be the case.

Besides, killing us with dumb blartbots would be...lame. If we're supposed to kill each other.

a10tionplz: (I don't think so)

Roombaville

[personal profile] a10tionplz 2018-02-13 04:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, hello! Feeling better, I see. Good, good. And- don't really think that's gonna work. Motor's not built to support that kind of weight, even if you've got a lot of them together, you'd need to build some kind of harnessing system to hold a passenger that supported most of its own weight while keeping it off the the Roombas as much as possible. Maybe some kind of suspension system-
motherfucking_ghost: (you wanna run that one by me again?)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-13 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
...Is this what it's like to be around me? [The amount of talking is just--he's in awe.] That would be what hell is like...

[moving on] I mean they're...future space roombas, they couldn't make them any sturdier in a couple thousand years? Cats have been riding them for forever. We can make this work somehow...
a10tionplz: (I don't think so)

[personal profile] a10tionplz 2018-02-13 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[Excuse you, his endless chattering is DELIGHTFUL.]

Oh, the tech's definitely better than what you'd find in the old twenty-first century models, for sure, but you still don't fix what's not broken. Like the way sharks evolved into a shape that worked and then just stuck there for millions of years.
motherfucking_ghost: (yeah. that's right. I'm a gay robot.)

[personal profile] motherfucking_ghost 2018-02-14 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
It's a robot, not an evolutionary marvel.

We can make it better. Faster. Stronger. We have the technology.
a10tionplz: (one more thing)

[personal profile] a10tionplz 2018-02-14 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
It can be both.

[...Metaphorically. Sort of.]

Ha, the six-million dollar Roomba. Huhm, maybe with the tech repair center... we'd need to at least improve the support system for the wheels-
