Love and Producer(MLQC) Lucien Overseas Date Translation
Translation of excerpt from unreleased Lucien date.
This is not a full translation, only some parts.
The translation is based on KR version text. I am not a professional translator and get things wrong. So do not regard this as the actual canon.
I used Yōurán as the name of MC because that is the unofficial default MC’s name in CN version.
I think this date happened before chapter 13, so it can help you understand him better in chapter 13.
Overseas Date
Lucien’s business trips were usually short terms, but this time it seemed that he had to be away for a long time.
Yōurán: Are you going far away this time?
Lucien: Not that far. I am going to the country of The Little Mermaid, one of your favorite fairy tales. But I won’t be home for quite some time. So, could you look after the plants in my home while I’m away?
Yōurán: Do you really think you could entrust them to me?
Lucien: Don't worry. I've left instructions on the flower pot. If you think it's too hard, you can always call me, whether it's about the plants... or you.
He patted my head softly as if he was trying to encourage me.
Lucien: By the time I return, the marguerite daisies will be blooming. When that time comes, we can sit together on the terrace and look at flowers, drink tea, and eat your favorite desert. How about that?
Yōurán: I'd love it. You have to let me know right away when you come back.
Lucien: I promise.
The smiles in his eyes seemed to go deeper. He took my hand and placed the key to his house.
Lucien: Take good care of them while I’m gone.
I held on tight to the key which still held his warmth, and nodded.
Yōurán: I’ll look after them. You take care of yourself too.
Lucien: I will. You take care as well.
I hugged him as a goodbye. He also hugged me in a warm, powerful embrace.
Half a month passed. Every day I got up 30 minutes earlier than my usual time to water Lucien's plants. The marguerite daisies he mentioned were in full bloom, but I could only share the delight with him through a small cellphone screen.
I was working on a project with YBC to run a TV show about Hans Christian Andersen. I decided that I have to go to Denmark for the local shooting. To ensure the quality of the shooting, but there was also a personal reason that I alone knew. I wanted to see him.
After 13 hours of long flight, I arrived in the city that Lucien was staying. After I got off the plane, a cool wind brushed my face. I could tell that the latitude was higher up here. (She’s remarking that Denmark is colder than Loveland city.)
I took out my only jacket that I packed and put it on. After I unpacked my luggage in the hotel I moved straight to shooting. It was important to meet him, but I had to finish my work first. My week here was filled with day after day of busy shooting.
Lucien: Have you been busy lately? You don’t send me pictures of the plants as often.
Yōurán: Yes, a little. But I’m looking after them as best as I can, so don’t worry!
Before I left, I installed a device that would water the plants automatically. Lucien cared a lot about his plants so I must take every measures I can.
Lucien: It’s not the plants I’m worried about. I’m worried about you.
Yōurán: Me? You have nothing to worry about me. I’m perfectly fine and healthy!
Even though I said so, I was feeling dizzy. It seemed like I had a cold.
Lucien: Are you going to keep lying to me? Hmm?
Lucien’s voice was still soft, but I could feel irresistible pressure. I panicked. I thought he saw through my perfect cover.
Yōurán: Why, Why would I lie to you…..
He sighed after listening to my nervous denial. Then in a tone more gentle and more worried, he said.
Lucien: Did you think I wouldn’t know, with how your voice sounds? You tell me every day to look after myself but you don’t keep your own words. What would I learn from this?
Yōurán: No, I took some pills, and I’m fine now!
I sighed in relief when he didn’t seem to realize that I was here. I discreetly changed the subject.
Yōurán: By the way, where is the hydrangea garden that you told me about?
Lucien: They are near my office.
Yōurán: Can you tell me the exact address? I, I was just curious…
Lucien was silent for a moment before answering like he was interested.
Lucien: You really want to know? Are you…
Yōurán: Er… My friend! She wants to go there!
After I gave a sloppy excuse, he sent me the address without questioning me further.
Lucien: If your friend is planning to go there today, maybe we could cross paths.
Yōurán: Oh, are you also going there?
Lucien: Yes. I have someone very important to meet. We’ll talk later. Get some rest. Good night.
After he hung up, I still held on to the receiver. I felt really warm, but I wondered who was his “very important person.”
After I was done with my work, I went to the garden that he told me. Under the sun I could see blue and purple flowers delicately embroidered on a broad grassy field. The scene was identical to the pictures Lucien sent me a few days ago. It was like seeing the flowers with his eyes.
A sudden unexpected rain came and blurred my visions, but I could clearly see the person with his back turned towards me not far away. It was Lucien. Without wasting my time to open my umbrella, I ran to him.
He started to look around when he heard footsteps, but I had already attached myself firmly to his back. Even without seeing, he knew it was me and stroked my hand gently with his fingers. I felt familiar warmth and familiar scent and I could hear his actual voice – not a slightly different sounding voice via phone – the voice that I have missed day and night.
Lucien: The “very important person” that I talked about. It was you.
He wanted to turn around, but I held onto him tighter because I didn’t want him to see my face. I cried softy as I leaned on his broad, warm back. I planned on giving him a ‘coincidental meeting’ with the happiest smile, but tears kept flowing endlessly against my will.
He took my hand to his lips and blew warm breaths, thawing the coldness.
Lucien: Your hands are freezing. Let’s go to my place before your cold gets any worse.
I stayed where I was and shook my head. He didn’t push the matter further and indulged my unreasonable whims, like he always did.
Lucien: I want to hug my little fool too. Please let me look at you. Will it be okay if I do that?
With a sob I slowly let go of him. He pulled me in his arms and covered me with his coat.
Lucien: Next time, don’t use your ‘friend’ as a pretext. If you want to see me, you can say so to me directly.
Yōurán: Okay…
After feeling relieved I felt sudden dizziness, when I came to Lucien was holding onto me tightly. He looked at me with worry in his eyes, and his mouth kept moving. I didn’t hear what he was saying, but I vaguely remembered leaving the hydrangea garden and returning to his place.
When I woke up, the light of dawn was shining through the curtains.
Lucien: Your fever is starting to go down. Thank god. You must be thirsty. Should I get you a glass of water?
I was really thirsty. But I needed him more than I needed a glass of water.
Yōurán: Don't go... Stay by my side... please?
There were so many things I wanted to say, but I couldn't. I wanted to know whether he was doing okay on his own, why he didn't come back to me even after the marguerite daisies bloomed.... I used my feeble strength to hold onto his arm.
He sat by my bedside. He seemed to want to say something, but didn't. When I was about to ask him about that, his hands covered my eyes.
Yōurán: Lucien?
Lucien: Good girl. You need to rest. I promise you that I won't leave your side. You came all this way to see me and you worry that I'll be gone again. Is it because I didn't keep my promise?
I couldn't see his face but I could tell that he was feeling guilty.
Yōurán: I wasn't chastising you, I was just...
My words mumbled into a sob.
Lucien: You have every right and reason to blame me. I am with you now, so don't bear all the pain on your own.
I cried harder as I listened to his words. My voice didn't come out like something was blocking my throat, so I could only shake my head fervently to deny his words.
I wasn't angry that he didn't keep his promise that he'd be back by the time the flowers bloomed. I just wanted to know if he was okay. He kept sending me texts and pictures while he was away, but those little fragments were not enough.
He wiped away my tears, but they kept on flowing as if they forgot how to stop. He seemed at a loss to know what to do, then he leaned in and kissed my tear-stained eyes.
Lucien: Get some sleep and when you get better, I want to visit those places that I sent photos to you.
The hydrangea garden was the same place as yesterday, but it felt like the garden held a new meaning purely from the fact that he was here with me.
Yōurán: Did you go see the little mermaid statue while you were here?
Lucien: No, I did not.
Yōurán: I went there during the shooting, and I felt that the mermaid has a stronger personality than I originally thought.
Lucien: Did something happen there?
Yōurán: No, I just thought that she reacted courageously to the circumstances in the end.
When it came to love, she wasn’t submissive nor yielding. She didn’t surrender and maintained her will and belief even in front of the person she loved.
As if trying to live up to the sad tale, a sudden rain shower poured down upon us.
Although he brought his umbrella, Lucien took off his coat and covered me with it carefully. I held onto his shirt and buried my face on his chest without a thought. I could hear his heart beating faster and faster, like it was trying to get away from something.
When I raised my head up slightly I could see his firmly closed pale lips. His arms held me tighter.
Yōurán: Lucien, are you alright?
Lucien: It’s nothing. Don’t worry about me. I didn’t catch your cold.
He pulled me into his arms as if he didn’t want me to see him in pain. I pushed away from him and touched his sweating hair and pale face.
Yōurán: It’s not nothing! You told me I can tell you everything, but you always hide everything inside your heart! Like now. I don’t even know why you are suffering…
He forced a smile as he watched me pour my heart out. But his smile was much sadder than crying.
Lucien: Is that what you’ve been thinking all along? If that is what makes you anxious, then I promise you, that I will never hide anything from you. All sides of me, even my weakest moments. Could you… accept me like this?
I stood up on my heels to look into his unstable eyes properly and nodded firmly.
Yōurán: Yes, I will! What I like is the entire complete “Lucien.” It doesn’t matter what sides you have.
Saying that, I hugged him strongly. He put his subtly trembling hands around my body and held me tight like he was trying to imprint me into his chest.
He couldn’t yet understand the mermaid’s selfless, brave, devoted love.
(I said selfless, but it more closely means ‘disregarding herself over others’)
But it came to him that he could understand the little mermaid’s last choice.
As long as she wants to embrace all of him gently and warmly, what would it matter if he were to bear the pain that’s added solely from her.

Dying Historic on Nudist Road
Sun, sweat, beach babes, and caaaars. Daten Beach was hyping up their biggest auto show yet and they're going to do it in style. By inviting Angels of course! The Abbey had received a bunch of fliers to the auto show along with an invitation that marked them as "special guests." Strappon didn't find label appealing. Last time they were special guests anywhere, an idol and boxer attacked them on separate occasions. But these are cars, what could go wrong? A man eating car? HA that's a good one. But now the Templar was worried that he may have jinxed it. Despite his caution, he decided it wouldn't be too bad to go to the auto show. It totally wasn't because some Angels came in and got excited about cars, nope.
As the Angels and Heavenbents arrived at the beach there was nothing out of the ordinary. In fact, this auto show looked fun! Food and nice cars, this is something you couldn't pass up. But something still felt off...
Lo and behold, it didn't take too long for Demons to arrive and claim territory of the beach by impaling a sign into the sand. Proof of their ownership of it. These damn rich people. But the Angels weren't going to let this day be ruined, nor were they going to square up with the Demons. At the request of Strappon, of course.
Let's just see what cars the auto show has to offer!
DIE HISTORIC ON NUDIST ROAD
Are y'all ready for the Auto Show?
--------
HITAGASHI:
Excited whispers in the air, the smell of metal and oil, and Daten
sunlight all set the stage for the Daten Auto Show. An extravaganza
to end all spectacular extravaganzas! Or, at least, that's what the
papers said. The fliers all around town vouched for this as well and
the hype seemed justified. There seemed to be nothing that could
possibly go wrong today. If you didn't count the fact that angels
seemed to be cursed with bad luck but moving beyond that the cars were
beautiful and so was the feeling of being there at the show. Except
for the demons but the angels were doing their best (after being
ordered) to not start a fight.
Although, if you asked Abbie, the place was sorely lacking in
motorcycles. She did, however, finally seem to not have a game system
with her. Today should be good, providing she didn't need to kick
some butt. Ugh. She hated being in Daten some days. She looked
around and saw Cammy blatantly walking in the beach sand with a camel
following her, still wrapped up tighter than a mummy.
KR-O:
A worried expression was hidden behind Shades' namesake. He managed to
loosen up after Angels obeyed orders, but he couldn't help getting
worried. Daten Demons sure did love to provoke them.
KR-O:
Massie patted Shades, telling him that everything will be alright.
It'd be too risky for Demons to pull anything without getting sued by
insurance companies. Perhaps the girl had a point. Before Shades could
thank her, Massie went off to admire some vehicles. She ended up
complainjng about the lack of motorcycles. This is lame.
NAPDRAGONN:
Sunny looked around. He didn't know much about cars, but they sure
were cool, so he had covinced Newsie to bring him along to the show,
as long as he stayed close by. Everything was shiny and polishe and SO
COOL, and if you looked close you could practically see the sparkles
in the young boy's eyes. Newsie, for his part, was playing the role of
caretaker very well, keeping Sunny's hand in his own as he idly looked
at automobiles himself and listened to his younger brother figure's
chatter intently.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt and Wristband walked into the show room. Although they came
together, the two had their own reasons for showing up. Undershirt
actually wanted to look at the cars. Wristband on the other hand was
looking for some hot action.
TIMERIFTS:
Overalls sauntered around idly, the cars were all very fancy and cool
but she didn't really have a lot of interest in who made them what
model they were ectera. She didn't touch any of them as she walked
down the isles of cars that seemed endless. She hoped to find other
demons to chat with so it was less lonely
NAPDRAGONN:
"Newsie, look at that one!" Sunny said excitedly, tugging on Newsie's
shirt sleeve, "It looks like a beetle shell!"
And it did, Newsie noted. The coat of paint was an iridescent purple
and the shap was sleek and aero dynamic. He hummed and smiled down at
his bug loving little brother, ruffling his hair. "Probably not a real
beetle in disguise though, short stuff." He remarked, and Sunny
giggled a little in response.
TJ:
It almost seemed like Cufflink was the only very irritated and
miserable one; with a harsh frown and glaring eyes he almost scowls at
the cars. Another normal day for him. The cars made no impact to him
and he was just trying to waste the time staring at the ceiling or
refining his schedule until his usual migrane forms
OSCARK9:
Today is going to be a good day for Gloves to see the new cars in the
Daten Auto Show. When he walk inside, he couldn’t believe how many
cars they were. All shiny and sparkly. So shiny that he could see his
face on the cars.
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
Buckle had arrived a bit late but that was normal. She was never one
for punctuality. Noticing the section of the beach dedicated to
motorcylces, she pulled her chopper alongside the rest and pulled off
her helmet. Her hair fell on her face and she pushed her hand through
it a few times.
"Wonder where the others are," she thought to herself as she scanned
the horizon of cars and people.
GAMER-GODDESS:
A small smile lit up Thigh High's face as she glanced around at the
cars, she didn't much care for them but they sure did look pretty
awesome. More in love with soaking up the sun she decided to take a
look at every model she could before the day was done.
Meanwhile Brassiere had a seemingly permanent frown on her face,
likely due to the sun beating down on her pale skin. Hoping to make
the most of the day before she was burned to a crisp she jogged over
to Overalls to engage in some friendly banter.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
The two of them scanned the area before Undershirt looked at her
sister. "Now remember, we're here to look at cars and bikes, not
screwing everyone in sight. Just behave yourself" he said.
She stuck her tongue out at him. "You have no room to talk Mr. 'I want
to punch everyone'" She said.
"Whatever" he said folding his arms.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Bowtie arrived on the beach and scanned the area. She noticed that the
Demons were out numbered by the Angels. "Those little pests" she
thought, "I could burn them all to a crisp if I wanted to." She
sighed. But that wouldn't be proper would it? Oh well, maybe this car
show would be fun.
TIMERIFTS:
Overalls smiled at the girl approaching her, waving at her "hello" she
called in a sing song voice to her, stopped walking to let the girl
catch up. She admired the car she stopped by while she waited, though
it wasn't a very long wait
GAMER-GODDESS:
Bra stopped running and bent over to catch her breath, giving a "Hey"
in between gasps. Standing up straight she offered the demoness a
smile. "How's it going?" The young girl quietly shaking her head for
not having thought of something better say.
HITAGASHI:
There was a point in a young Irish lass' life where she should say no.
However, considering she loved cars and could now drive them
comfortably, Pastel tugged on the suit she wore as she considered
which ones to buy. She refused to settle into the beach scene, trying
instead to find a better way to not shoot someone getting in her way.
Anger seemed to be a problem lately.
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls waited patiently with a smile as the girl caught her breath "not
too much, just admiring these brilliant cars, what about yourself?"
she asked, not exactly sure why the girl wanted to talk to her but
would not turn down her conversation because she was kinda bored and
didn't want to be rude
KR-O:
"You should listen to your girl, Shades. Enjoy the show! Because this
is the most expensive showing any one of us is gonna be at."
Jokki popped up behind Shades to try to get him to loosen up a little
more. Well if this was coming out of a Demon's mouth, he may as well
take his word for it.
"Yeah, You're right. Maybe I should go around the owners to see what
recommendations they have for my car. I think I see some people I
know? May as well hang out with them."
Jokki smiled at the Angel as he left his side. Good. Now the perfect
umbrella space was all his.
Shades waved over at Newsie, ruffling Sunny's hair once he approached
the both of them. "Hey guys! How's it going?"
NAPDRAGONN:
"Hi mister Shades!" Sunny said enthusiastically at Shades, always
happy to see his older friend, "We're just fine! I was showing my
brother that care over there- look, it's like a beetle!" That said,
Sunny pointed the iridescent car out again, hopping up and down.
"He's been all about this place today." Newsie drawled, "I had to drag
him away to get some water because he was gettin' flushed and
dehydrated. Nutty kid is way too excited about this shindig if you ask
me. Least he's havin' fun, though. Nice to see you."
KR-O:
Shades looked at the car in question and chuckled, "Well, it is a
Volkswagen.../Beetle/." He winked at Sunny as if he made the best pun
ever. It was not. It was terrible.
"Well, can you blame the kid when they have really nice cars this time
around? Kind of intimidating if you ask me. These all look like
exports too."
All Shades could think about was their cost. They must of been in the
millions. He shuddered at the thought.
GAMER-GODDESS:
"I'm doing pretty well, have you seen any nice models yet?" Brassiere
asked, motioning towards the seemingly endless display of beautifully
glossy cars.
NAPDRAGONN:
sunny still laughed, though. He was a child, after all, and corny
jokes were about his level of humor in that point of life. Newsie was
rolling his eyes and groaning, though. Still...
"I wouldn't know much." Admitted the newsstand worker, "I'm not super
interested in rides. I mean, i can see they're juiced up and
expensive, but that's about it. Sunny just thinks they're cool." He
shrugged.
TIMERIFTS:
"They are all wonderful, but I saw one I really liked down there"
Ralls pointed in the direction to show where the car was, keeping it
friendly. She started to walk down the isle to look at more of the
cars, brushing her hair out of her face, starting to feel the heat a
little
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt looked up from the car he was inspecting and saw Shades. He
also over heard the bad pun that made him die a little inside. "Well,
well, well, if it isn't Mr. Uptight" Undershirt said as he walked over
to the group that was gathered. Wristband looked up from another car
and followed her brother over. She recognized Shades, but not the
others. She hadn't really met many people in the Abbey so this could
be a good way to break the ice and make some friends.
TJ:
Cufflink quickly adjusted his tie as he walked over to the exit. He
noticed the rising amount of Angels that were appearing and if there
was a fight, he'd rather not get overpowered.
"I'll just stay here for a little... Think I got work back in the
office anyways..." Cufflink mumbles as the heat slowly created a sauna
in his suite.
NAIVESPACEMAN:
Furcoat walked in with his arms over his chest and a visible annoyance
on his face. He peered at the almost endless line of cars and within
the sea of metal, reeking of oil and gas, he spotted Overalls. He made
his way towards his personal assistant and called out to her once he
was just a few feet away from her and whomever she was talking to.
"Overalls. Did you pick up my dry cleaning? I feel like I'm going to
need a change of clothes after this."
A blurred figure rushed through the air, jumping on top of the tallest
vehicle in the area near the majority of the people here. The figure
landed with their scarf starting to blow in the wind. The figure stood
up to reveal the greatest hero that no one knew, Buckle! She took her
usual pose and called out. "Fear no longer, the hero Buckle has
arrived!"
NAPDRAGONN:
Sunny looked up at the two new additions to their conversation group,
unsure who they were. He was still young and sometimes shy, so most of
his friends at the Abbey were people who had taken initiative and
spoken to him first, like Shades.
Newsie squinted his eyes at them both, not liking the vibe he was
getting, but he bit his tongue. Picking a fight in front of his little
brother would set a bad example. He'd have to just wait and see what
their attitudes amounted to.
KR-O:
"Yeah, they are. I sorta came down here to ask about parts since I
wanted to beef mine up-" Shades turned with a finger raised up, "
_Listen_ " He said. "...You're not wrong, especially right now, BUT
LISTEN."
He didn't continue after that, giving a smile to Undershirt.
OSCARK9:
Gloves smiled at the new cars that he been seeing passing by him. By
looking at the new cars and seeing his own reflection. Which makes him
distracted. He said to himself, "Man, I look good on these cars. Too
bad that I can't ride one of them." Which makes him feel down just for
a minute. He give it a good smile on the car's reflections and move on
to the next one.
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
Buckle stopped guarding her motorcycle from passersby when she heard
her name called from across the lot. She gazed over and saw what
looked to be an angel doing some pose on top of a car.
"The hell? She could ruin the paint," Buckle said quietly to herself.
GAMER-GODDESS:
Bra watched Ralls walk away before deciding to obtain a some type of
beverage to rival this heat.
Thigh High was enjoying the cars before she spotted a certain angel.
Bounding up to the girl she called out quick "Hey, Massie!" to catch
her attention
TIMERIFTS:
Overalls perked at the voice of her boss, twirling around to face him
"Yes, it's in my car at the moment" she smiled, her posture
immediately getting better as she stood at attention to him, glancing
over at the other girl she was talking to as she walked away
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Wristband's eyes lit up when she looked at Sunny "Hey sexy...OW" She
said before getting elbowed in the stomach by Undershirt. "I mean hi"
she tried again.
"Sorry about that" he said as he glared at her. "That's kind of her
way of saying hello."
KR-O:
Massie stared in disappointment of the lack of certain vehicles and
shrugged, admiring what was available right now. She turned to whoever
was caller her out and smiled in return. "Oh, hello there."
"Well, I'm used to that with my other friends, so no big deal with
me." Which was a big understatement for Shades to say but you know.
"But hey, nice to see you guys out here too."
NAIVESPACEMAN:
"Good. Seems you've managed to earn your paycheck for this week." He
kept his arms folded over his chest before looking around at all the
cars around him. The potential for him getting dirty was immensely
high at the moment. He cringed a bit. "What exactly are you doing
here?" What was HE doing here?
GAMER-GODDESS:
Offering a quick nod "Haven't seen you for a while," Stretching her
arms above her head before asking "What have you been up to?"
TIMERIFTS:
She watched where he was looking "thank you" she smiled "I came to
admire these vehicles and get some sun, what are you doing here?" she
wondered, him being here was something even more out of the ordinary
because of the risk of getting dirty
KR-O:
"Ah well, making sure some new fallen are getting situated. Making
sure to keep my swords clean. Nothing too eventful." Massie responded.
"How about you?"
NAIVESPACEMAN:
Furcoat shifted his weight slightly, leaning to the side on his left
leg. "I was on my way back from a voicing job and saw that you were
nearby." On a GPS system he had put on her without her knowledge. He
has to know where his assistant is at all times, of course. "I decided
to come in and see if you were really doing your job."
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"Yeah, you too man" he said, still a little upset at Wristband. "It
feels like it's been forever since we've left the Abbey."
Wristband agreed in that sentiment. "Yeah, I was beginning to get stir
crazy. I needed to get out of there for a while." And get some action,
is what she wanted to finish with, but she felt that it was best if
she just kept her mouth shut.
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls smiled weakly, how did he know she was nearby? She let the
thought slide "how did the job go?" she asked him, keeping the
conversation on him to stroke his ego more, which she had learned was
an essential part of the job "I am always doing my job Sir" she
assured him, not really sure what her job consisted of anymore but
whatever he needed was it
KR-O:
"It has been a while. Kinda glad that tensions aren't high with both
groups being in the same area. I guess we can relax for once." Shades
looked around quickly to make sure of his words, but it was about the
same.
Meanwhile, HP was getting something ready for the auto show. Of all
people to provide something for this show. Armlet, however, was a
little grumpy child. The sand was making him 'see' fuzzy, constantly
asking when HP was going to be done with his the thing he was working
on.
NAIVESPACEMAN:
He let out a small laughing huff. "It went splendidly, of course. You
know I am practically incapable of failure." He gave her a smug smile,
closing his eyes and putting his hand on his chest while speaking.
Furcoat opened his eyes to look at her again. "So the list of errands
I mailed you is done?"
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Bowtie looked at Cufflink. So many new recruits lately. She decided to
talk to him. Walking over she noticed the apparent nervousness on his
face. When she reached him, she put on a smile. "Hi, I'm Bowtie, I
take it you're new here?" she asked him.
TIMERIFTS:
She smiled "of course!" she replied to his being perfect, he was kinda
charming in the fact that he was so confident, but it was testing in
the waters of cocky. She watched his body language as he spoke "almost
all of them are done, the one shop was closed today so I will get that
done tomorrow but everything else is complete" she assured him,
meeting eyes with him to make him know he had her full attentions,
that would help him feel even more important
GAMER-GODDESS:
"I'm doing great actually." Pondering for a moment. "Tell me about
yourself, I feel like we don't really hear that much about you." Thigh
High subtley faced palmed herself for sounding so creepy.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"Yeah I noticed that" Undershirt said looking around. There were a few
Demons that he could spot. It was a really weird feeling that they
were just coexisting in this space, that no one wanted to kill each
other. "It just feels weird to me"
TJ:
Cufflink glances at her and nods. "Yes... My name is Cufflink.
Pleasure to meet you..." He bows slightly since his asian teachings
still follow him.
KR-O:
Shades shrugged, "I'm used to this. Demons and Angels coexist up North
and that's where I worked a good chunk of my life." He motioned both
Wristband and Undershirt to follow him. He wanted to look around while
chatting.
Massie stared at Thigh High for a bit, sweating nervously, "O-Oh.
Really? I don't know. I don't have much to offer."
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
Buckle had made her way over to Furcoat and butted in on his
conversation. She glanced back at her motorcycle to make sure no one
had put their hands all over it while she was gone.
"Hey, Furry. Did you see that angel dancing around on the tops of cars
a few minutes ago?" She hit punched the palm of her hand. "I'd like to
beat some sense into her. I mean, vandalism is fun and all, but you
should never disrespect someone's ride."
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Bowtie was taken aback a bit by the bow. "You don't have to be so
formal with me, after all we do work together. So how are you liking
this show so far? I personally don't have much of an interest in cars,
but I heard that a few people were going so I thought I'd might as
well go too."
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"Really? I haven't heard of that before." He said as he and Wristband
followed Shades.
NAIVESPACEMAN:
The demon peered at the woman as she agreed with him. That was a good
call not disagreeing with him. That's how his first assistant ended up
spending the rest of his life as an inner-city kindergarden teacher.
He narrowed his eyes on Overalls when she admitted that she didn't get
one thing done. That was grounds for firing. But.. he was feeling
merciful. Odd. Before he could say something, someone else butted in
on his conversation. He turned look at Buckle for a second, before
looking back to Overalls. "Who is this and why is it talking to me?"
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"Yeah, I thought that they wanted to always tear each other's throats
out" Wristband agreed. She was never one for geography or schooling,
but she was surprised that she hadn't heard of this before.
TJ:
"...Formal...?" His eyebrows raised in surprise and his eyes widen.
Then caught himself and realized the difference in manners here.
Clearing his throat and regaining his posture he calmly replies,
"No, in fact I was planning on leaving and heading for the office to
see if there was any work for me there."
GAMER-GODDESS:
Crap, you made her uncomfortable, think harder Thigh High, "Uh, I mean
do you have any hobbies?" Nice save!
TIMERIFTS:
Overalls smiled at him, noticing his displeasure in her not being able
to force a shop to open to run the errand, noting to do better next
time, glad he spared her "This is Buckle I believe" she introduced the
demon to him, letting that conversation take the front lines
OSCARK9:
Gloves was starting to get a little tired from seeing the new cars
that he pass already. He said to himself; "Walking around in the Auto
Show can make a person drain." So, he decided to get some cold
beverage and finding a place to settled down.
KR-O:
"Yeah. The North has both groups working together. They have kind of a
long history together and it's pretty chill up there." Shades paused
for a bit. "...They also have dragons and dinosaurs, which was kind of
cool."
Massie began getting shifty-eyed, trying to think of something. "Uuuh.
I don't really do much aside from Abbey work if you ask me." Wow, her
life was boring.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"Oh great I made him uncomfortable. Good job Bowtie" she thought. "Oh,
come one that's no fun" she said. "You're already here, might as well
stay and try to have fun. We don't get many chances to take a break.
Besides, I'm sure whatever work is there can wait."
TJ:
"...What does 'fun' mean?" Cufflink's curiosity was peaked at this
word, he heard so many people say it and had no time to look it up. He
looked at Bowtie straight in the eyes with a softened look and awaited
a response.
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
"I can see someone at least had the decency to read my file." She
glanced towards Overalls. "Now, you gonna help me beat up that
exhibitionist or what?"
GAMER-GODDESS:
"You don't, that's a shame." Snapping her fingers as a lightbulb went
off inside her head "I've got it, maybe we could hang out sometime!"
Thigh High exclaimed, "Is there anything you'd like to do in your
spare time?"
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"Wait, you mean ACTUAL dinosaurs and Dragons?" he said stunned. HOW
DID HE NOT KNOW THIS?! "Can you like, ride them?"
"How are the angels up there? Are they hot?" Wristband asked.
NAIVESPACEMAN:
"Buckle. Doesn't ring a bell." He spoke out before looking to Buckle
once more. He huffed when hearing her ask him or Overalls for help
with fighting someone. He wasn't sure who she was asking, but he
responded anyways. "I am not about to allow a fight in here. You could
destroy a car and get oil all over my clothes!"
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls nodded in agreement "Yeah, I am not really up for a fight today,
you know being peaceful and stuff seems kinda alright for the time
being" she smiled weakly "sorry though, hope it goes well though" she
nodded to the girl, even if she did want to fight she couldn't risk
losing her job because she got oil on his coat or something She smiled
at Buckle then looked at her boss, not sure how to end a conversation
like this
KR-O:
Once again, Massie just stared. She didn't know how to respond to her.
Honestly, she just didn't know how to socialize well with strangers.
"I don't know what I'd like to do in all honesty. I've been keeping
busy with work for a good while now. I don't know what to tell you."
"YEAH!" Shades responded. "Like actual dinosaurs and dragons! And even
giant birds! They give them to you if you're gonna be a knight and
they're your life companions. I have one! But mom keeps it." Which was
unfair to him.
"Depends on your aesthetic." He said to Wristband.
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
"Well, damn. I'd sure hate for your clothes to get dirty," she said
sarcastically. "I guess we can just let her keep jumping all over the
hoods of cars and breaking all the rules." Buckle shrugged her
shoulders in an exaggerated manor.
HITAGASHI:
Tiara, like the little brat she is, did her best impression of a
Jack-in-the-Box the moment the mention of dragons appeared. She shot
up from seemingly nowhere behind Undershirt and slammed her hands onto
his shoulders from behind to hoist herself up and look at him from
above. "DRAGONS? I'M A DRAGON." She turned her attention to Shades
with an almost sparkle to her eyes. "Dragons are GREAT."
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Bowtie wasn't sure how to respond. How the fuck do explain to someone
what fun is? How do you have to be raised to not know what fun is?
"Uhh, fun is the feeling you get when you do something you enjoy." she
said. That was pretty a pretty good definition there Bowtie.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"Dude, I want a dinosaur to ride! That sounds so cool. Why does your
mom keep it? Too much to have at the Abbey?" Undershirt asked. If he
ever had the chance he'd go to the North and get him a Dinosaur.
Meanwhile Wristband conjured up thoughts of knights in shining armor
riding on dragons coming to save her. She smiled at that thought. "You
know the big strong Knight type" she responded.
NAIVESPACEMAN:
"Well. She isn't bothering me. Whoever she is." He huffed lightly
folding his arms over his chest once more. "Besides. She doesn't seem
to be doing anything now." He shifted his shoulders a bit and groaned
slightly. "I need a massage."
HITAGASHI:
Cammy slowly made her way into the show, humming softly to herself as
she passed by Abbie who seemed to be scanning the crowd. She seemed
to find what she was looking for as she practically stomped over to
where Massie was. "How ya doin', yo?" Because saving her friend's...
kid (she still didn't believe that) from discomfort was very
important. Maybe they could talk about bikes.
TJ:
Cufflink's eyes harden once more as they go back to his usual cold
expression and only replied with, "Oh. I see, Thank you." It was a
familiar word... He shook his head and looked in the car show again.
Pursing his lips he slowly mumbled, "I suppose I can try having this
'fun'."
GAMER-GODDESS:
Thigh High was determined to open Massie up "Well, what if we
experiment with different activities. We could try sports or movies or
one of the various arts or, or..." Trailing off as she attempted to
think of anything, looking around the large expanse of cars "Or,
collecting cars!"
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt and Wristband jumped at the sudden appearance of the demon
child. "WHOA, where the hell did you come from?!" Undershirt yelled.
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls kept to herself, but noted to book him a massage soon. She
watched the conversation between the two demons, wondering why he was
still talking to her, she wasn't important enough for him to know her
name so why was he?
KR-O:
Shades almost screamed from the sudden child popping up behind them
but recognized her almost immediately.
"Oh hey, you're Hairpin's girl, right? Excuse me, Hairpin's dragon? Am
I getting it right?"
He wanted to humor the kid as best he could because that's what HP
requested.
"On, no. My Ziz is far too big to keep it anywhere. It's like. Huge.
And I mean HUGE. Think of like, half of the height of a giraffe."
HITAGASHI:
Tiara grinned wide, pretty much catapulting herself over to Shades and
bouncing when she landed. "Yeah! That's Meema! I'm Tiara! What's
your dragon's name? Is it a boy or girl? Is it grown up?" Shades
seemed to have opened up a can of worms.
KR-O:
"I don't know, I have to focus on these issues that have been popping
up as of lately. I don't want my dad too stressed about them-" Massie
felt herself shrinking when Abbie approached them.
"Oh, miss Abbie.Hello." She did a slight bow, beginning to fiddle with
her fingers.
NAIVESPACEMAN:
Furcoat eyed Overalls after he spoke out that he needed to get a
massage. "You don't know how to give someone a shoulder massage?" He
asked out to her, having expected her to give him one right on the
spot.
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls looked at him "I was going to book you a professional one for
later this afternoon but I could give you one" she smiled, trying to
remain 'perfect' to please him. She walked up to him, to get started
working on his tense muscles
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"That's the spirit" Bowtie said. "So, what's your story? Where'd you
come from?" She asked. She felt that this was going well. He appeared
to be warming up to her, might as well keep the momentum going.
"That's awesome man!" Undershirt said excitedly. "I have to get one
for myself. I could have so much fun with one of those!"
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
"I'm gonna leave you to your pampering, Furry. Besides, my bikes been
left alone for a while now." She motioned towards the cycle section of
the show. "And if that angel gets anywhere near it, there's gonna be a
throw down."
KR-O:
Shades laughed at Tiara's enthusiasm about the dragons. "Well, I don't
have a dragon. It's more of a big bird. But she's grown! And feisty.
You know the cat man? I can ask him to show you a baby dragon one of
these days, he breeds them."
Shades looked at Undershirt, "Well, they're only native to the North
so you'll need connections to obtain one. Which I can count as one. I
got a few buddies that have Ziz as well."
NAIVESPACEMAN:
"This stiffness isn't letting me wait on one." He huffed lightly,
shifting his shoulders before she started giving him the massage he
wanted. He was started to loosen up a bit before hearing Buckle speak.
Hearing her call him 'Furry' caused him to sneer. "The name's
Furcoat." He stated.
HITAGASHI:
This information sent the little demon for a loop, eyes wide and hands
clapping together rapidly. "You mean Mister Jokki has __dragons__?!
Why didn't I know that? I thought he just had cats!" She seemed to
be ignoring anyone else talking to Shades as he had her complete
attention. Well, unless Jokki showed up and then he'd have to deal
with Tiara.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt smiled. He had no idea where he could ever put one, but
that doesn't matter. "Hey, maybe you could pull a few strings for an
old pal huh?" He said nudging him with his elbow.
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls held her breath, he was not happy with that name. She continued
to work on his shoulders, trying to help him relax, them. She felt
weird touching him since he never usually let her even get close
enough to touch him since she was a 'peasant'. Usually she would be up
in arms about being treated inferiority but she kinda needed this job
and didn't take it personally since everyone else got treated like
that too
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
"Yeah yeah, whatever you say, Furry." Buckle turned, put her hands in
her pockets and started walking back to her bike.
KR-O:
"I'll consider it." He said. It sounded so half-hearted from Shades,
but hey. He wasn't one to deny a request that doesn't hurt anybody. "I
just hope you're ready to research in taking care of those things."
Now his attention was back to Tiara.
"I thought he had cats too until he brought over a hatchling- Wait."
He removed his namesake and stared off into the distance."I have a
baby dragon at home." He completely forgot.
GAMER-GODDESS:
"Well, if you ever change your mind." Thigh High sighed. "I heard
there were refreshments, and I intend on finding them!" She said while
clenching her fist. And with that Thigh High proceded to just stand
there staring around the room with a hand stroking an imaginary beard.
OSCARK9:
When Gloves got his beverage. He was finding a place to for him to
settled down in. He decided that he will go outside and settled down
their. Inside the Auto Show was getting a little muggy and making him
have a headache from the oil fumes. So, outside is a best choice for
him.
TJ:
Cufflink flatly stated, "My Atunie Grace black mailed me to come work
here and to abandon my company for a few years." He glanced over at
the scene and stared at a car with interest.
NAIVESPACEMAN:
Furcoat furrowed his brow when hearing the woman calling in that name
again. He huffed, almost hissing in annoyance with the disrespect he
received. He was a celebrity! How dare she treat him like a joke! He
waited until the woman had walked away before he spoke again. "I don't
like that one."
HITAGASHI:
Tiara's attention seemed caught until she spotted something in the
distance. Eyes wide, she shifted her attention around and jumped up
to pat Shade's on the face lightly. "I gotta go I saw Faust but I
wanna meet your dragon baby soon! Bye Mister Ironee! I'll tell Meema
you're super nice!" And with this she ran over to what she seemed to
have spotted in the distance.
As this happened, Abbie seemed to be glaring at the person in front of
her in confusion. Why were they talking to Massie? "Hey, Massie,
who's this? Actually, wait no, you." She pointed at Thigh High.
"Who're ya, yeah?"
TIMERIFTS:
"noted" Ralls tried to speak quietly, so the girl had no chance of
hearing her. She knew it would aggravate Furcoat to hear himself be
called something like that, she was getting pretty good at guessing
what his reactions would be
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"What was that?" Undershirt asked. A baby dragon? How do you forget
that? "Wonder if he'd let me have it?" he thought.
"Oh that's rough" Bowtie said. "I know how that feels. I got sent here
after burning down my school with fire magic. It was terrible."
OSCARK9:
Gloves was outside taking a deep breath from the fresh air and said to
himself, "(exhaling) Ah! Now that's better. It's nice to smell oil
once in a while, but air is where is at."
KR-O:
After many "Are you done yet?"s from Armlet, HP finally finished on
what he was working on. To him it was purely elementary, but he
basically made a beefed up GTR from scratch.
"Nothing to it!" He said in a smug tone.
"Finally!" Armlet called out, throwing his hands up in the air."Are
you gonna announce the competition?"
"In a bit," HP responded, "Or right now, actually." Grabbing a PA
microphone, HP announced that the car competition for their special
was about to begin and that everybody make their way to other parts of
the beach.
Tiara left a big smile on Shades face and waved her goodbye as she
left. "What was what?" He asked Undershirt. But before he could ask
something else, the announcement caught his attention.
"Competition between the special guests? That wasn't anywhere in the
invite...And we're the special guests.." Something didn't feel right
here. Were these Demons up to something?
Massie could feel some hostility coming off Abbie and decided to
answer herself anyways. "Oh, this is Thigh High. She's another Abbey
resident. Anyways, should we make our way to this competition?"
GAMER-GODDESS:
Freezing mid stroke, Thigh-High glanced up at the person disrupting
her mission. "I'm sorry, what'd you just say?" Glancing at Abbie in
confusion, only to hear Massie clear it up.
NAIVESPACEMAN:
Furcoat grumbled something about ruining lives and making people get
stuck in dead end jobs, but he quieted down after a moment. He started
to relax with the help of Overalls' massage. But that stopped when the
announcement blared over the PA and caused him to jump. "What the
hell??"
TIMERIFTS:
listening to the PA ralls sighed a little "you wanna watch that?" she
asked him, not stopping his massage, she was glad to of helped, even
if only for a short time before the loudness that blared across the
area
TJ:
Cufflink jumped the sudden noise and looks over to Bow tie.
TJ:
"Competition...?"
NAIVESPACEMAN:
Furcoat gazed up at the PA, but still stayed in place for her to
continue the massage. "Watch it? Only if I get a box seat. I'm not
going to get soaked in smoke and smell like exhaust for two weeks." He
grumbled. "Is that what you're here for? A competition?"
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt and Wristband jumped at the sound of the PA. They listened
to the announcement and when it was finished, Undershirt turned to
Shades. "I KNEW something was up" he said. Wristband nodded her head
in agreement.
Bowtie just finished her story when the PA went off and made the
announcement. "What the hell?" she asked in confusion. Today might
prove to be much more interesting than she thought.
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
Buckle got back to her bike just as she heard the message. She
grabbed her helmet and noticed a scratch on her bike. "Really," she
shouted. "I was gone for maybe two minutes!" She angrily jumped on to
her bike and sped off towards the competition.
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls continued to massage his shoulders, even working on his upper
back "I see," she stayed put "nah that was not on the flier, Seems
kinda interesting though" she shrugged, she kinda wanted to watch, but
now that he was here she was back on the clock and all her decisions
would be based around him
OSCARK9:
While he was outside. He heard from the announcement that there's
going to be a Competition. He said to himself, "Competition? Sweet! I
don't know what it is, but I hope it's fun." So, he head off towards
the competition.
TJ:
Cufflink stretched a bit and wondered whether to back out now or not.
"I'll just sit in the back..." He whispers to himself and walking over
to the competition. "Are you coming?" He glances back at Bow tie and
tilts his head.
HITAGASHI:
Abbie considered it, shrugged, and stared at Thigh High for a moment
more. "Yeah, sure, why not, yeah? It's bound to be fun." She stared
at Massie and waved an arm in a way that indicated she go first. She
vaguely noticed Cammy actually tearing ass to the competition from the
corner of her eye.
Having heard the announcement, however, made Tiara beeline straight
for her Meema and the PA system. Pretty much skidding to a stop, she
reached to grab it from HP and narrowed her eyes. "Give it."
NAIVESPACEMAN:
He shifted a bit, leaning back into the massage while listening to his
assistant. "Do you want to take part in it?" He asked out. He seemed
to be in a rather generous mood today. "If so, you have ten minutes to
find me a seat away from the smoke, if not a box seat."
KR-O:
HP didn't hesitate and handed Tiara the receiver. "Knock 'em dead. Not
literally, though."
TIMERIFTS:
She blinked, not used to him being so nice to her "uh, sure" she
smiled, trying to keep the surprise out of her voice "I will do that
for you" she wiggled out of their situation to find them seats,
checking her watch to make sure she would be back before her 10
minutes was up
GAMER-GODDESS:
Bra had finally gotten a drink and was about to take a sip when the
sudden noise from the PA caused her to drop it a little too close to
one of the displays. The young lady practically sprinted away from the
incident, she did not want to deal with whoever was supervising the
cars. Making a mad dash to beach, Bra scanned the crowd for any good
spots to spectate.
Thigh High was still thinking about food but decided to tag along with
Massie and Abbie to avoid being abandoned. She shoved her hands in her
pockets and matched the girls' pace as they walked towards the
competition.
KR-O:
Jokki had been asleep for a good majority of the auto show and was
abruptly woken up by the PA speaker going off. His poor ears. Shaking
his head, trying to wake up, he started walking towards the
competition. "Why can't we enjoy a simple beach day..." He groaned.
HITAGASHI:
Taking control of the PA like it was her birth right, she grinned
broadly and let out a victorious hissing noise when she finally turned
it on. "Is everyone ready?! Get jumping and pumping gas because
we're about to race! Burn the tracks and get going to your cars if
you've got 'em! The winner gets uh..." She paused, trying to think
of a prize. Looking at all the cars, she shrugged. "The winner gets
a car!"
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
Buckle was first to pull up to the starting line. She flicked down her
helmet's visor and revved her engine, ready to go.
KR-O:
HP got up on stage to explain Tiara's terms for the competition.
Seeing as he was a tall bean pole, he knelled down to her level and
spoke into the receiver, "This competition is to see which species has
the most powerful vehicle to offer. We will race 12 cars and whichever
side wins, gets the loser's most priced car." Ending his speech, the
curtains retreated to show of the GTR he had just finished. "This will
be one of the cars representing the Demons. Wonder what will Angels
offer."
Shades stared at HP in pure disbelief. This guy. "That wasn't in the
terms of service you asshole!"
TJ:
Cufflinks watched the commotion and leans back in his seat. Racing
wasn't really his thing but with the raised stakes, it could be
interesting. Although with the surprise they brought up... Cufflink
cautiously shines his cuff links.
OSCARK9:
Gloves could not believes what he just heard. "Were going to have a
race and the losers will lose their car? That's crazy! However, I do
like to race against somebody." By thinking his thoughts for a minute.
He made his decision. "Ah, why not. Let's do this!" He said. He rushes
back to his green motorcycle and drove down to the starting line.
KR-O:
"Nothing's ever in the Terms of Service, that's how some businesses
work." HP said. "Anyways, I'll be driving this lovely car. I hope you
all have something to accompany the bike that just entered, because
against a GTR? Oof."
He had a point. Those cars take off faster than you can blink.
As Massie arrived she looked at Shades and then to the car, then back
to Shades. "Why don't you enter your car, father?"
Shades nearly choked on his own spit, "ME
KR-O:
Shades nearly choked on his own spit, "ME? WITH MY CAR? __ABSOLUTELY
NOT!__ " He's not made of money, you know.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt gave Shades a nudge. "Dude, it's a car show, there are
plenty of cars to choose from" he whispered. "While you look around,
I've already got my car picked out" he said out loud. He walked over
to a car a little ways out. "The Hennessey Venom GT, worlds fastest
car. No one will be able to touch me" he said as he slipped into the
seat of the bright orange supercar. Wristband followed her brother and
got into the passenger side. Undershirt pushed the start button and
the car roared to life.
Bowtie looked around for a suitable vehicle for her. Eventually she
landed on one. The McLaren P1. "Fast and stylish, I like it" She said
as she circled the car before getting in to the black car.
KR-O:
Shades followed Undershirt, then compared the chosen vehicle to the
Demons' chosen one. "I don't think I've seen a model like that before.
So it must be custom. If it is, we're screwed."
Massie followed along and when Shades made that inspection, she
squinted at the vehicle, "You could be right. The actual specs? We may
have to ask if those were imported or custom made too.."
HITAGASHI:
Like she had been, Abbie followed Massie and stared at the car. She
then turned to stare at her friend and pulled out her wallet. "Do you
need me to buy you a car?" Because this is obviously how things work.
As she said this, Cammy was hopping into the car she was actually
debuting at the show because of all her custom changes to it. She pet
the wheel and kissed it, grinning wide as she ripped off her mask,
jacket, and turtleneck and left herself in a tank top as she revved
her car to life. Her Ferrari wouldn't fail her and if it did at least
they'd go out in a blaze of glory.
As all this went on the little girl holding the mic grinned. "Ladies,
gentlemen, and everyone who is neither, both, or some combination
thereof! Please remember we aren't reimbursing you for losses! You
enter at your own risk! If you have the money, buy a car on display
that isn't custom!" She jumped a bit in place and then turned to her
guardian. Eyebrows furrowing, Tiara stared at HP intently. "Meema,
if you get hurt can I light people on fire?"
KR-O:
HP winked at Tiara and patted her head. "That won't be necessary when
they get burned by the nitro boost. But, please take care of your
brother. He doesn't like sand, remember?"
KR-O:
Shades backed off from Abbie with his hands raised defensively,
"Nuh-uh, I ain't taking that much money for a car that's gonna get
wasted. You can't make me, yo."
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
As Buckle was driving in and out of the crowd towards the starting
line, she noticed the demon she had met earlier and steered her bike
towards her.
"Hey! Coveralls right?" Buckle shouted over the crowd of people.
"Where'd your boss run off to?"
HITAGASHI:
Ignoring him, she turned to Massie. "Please pick a car, I have the
money to spare."
Grabbing Armlet's hand was Tiara's response as well as a big grin. "I
know! I can spook him but sand's bad. It's gross anyway!" She
turned to her brother and squeezed a little with her hand to let him
know she was talking to him. "We can stay on the sidewalk! 'Kay?"
TJ:
Cufflink had been walking along the board walk, wandering with no
destination planned.
"With all the commotion at the race, it's like the whole beach has
been desserted..." He thought while walking slowly.
KR-O:
"What." Massie stared in disbelief. "I don't know how to drive,
though."
Armlet nodded, "The sidewalk sounds good. Concrete is so much more
appreciated than sand, really." He waited for her to move, he's not
taking any chances of touching something gross on this sand.
TIMERIFTS:
Overalls smiled "I was actually here finding a spot for us to sit and
watch" she didn't bother correcting her on her name "nice bike by the
way" she smiled
HITAGASHI:
"Just pick a car for him to drive. Whichever one looks coolest to you
I guess." The girl shrugged and grabbed Shades by the collar. "I
have money to spare, you moron."
Bouncing, Tiara lead him over to the sidewalk. "People do a lot of
gross stuff on beaches. I don't like all the water either."
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
"C'mon really? I mean do you really just want to sit and watch?"
Buckle scooted forward on her seat. "I need a partner. Hop on. I'll
deal with your boss later."
KR-O:
"Why not buy the competition and make ourselves the automatic
winners?" Massie suggested. It was an auto show.
KR-O:
Shades stared at Massie,
"...That's so stupid it's genius."
"Just like you, I guess." She replied. OH SNAP.
Conveniently HP called out to them saying the custom GT wasn't for
sale. There goes that plan.
"Fine, we'll get the car next to Undershirt. I'll be a driver I
guess." Shades said reluctantly.
"Pretty sure at one point I stepped on something gooey. Litterers are
gross." Though, Armlet was now contemplating if he could lift a car up
or not with magic. It would be pretty cool.
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls gave a nervous laugh "I would rather not lose my job, so maybe i
can ask him right now" she looked at her watch, she had like 5 minutes
to find him a spot and get back to him "give me a few minutes" she
smiled weakly spotting a place that Furcoat would approve of and went
to find him "I would love to join you though!"
TJ:
Within in a few minutes Cufflink found himself completely lost.
Looking around confused he quickly spots Tiara and Armlet. His cheeks
light up a pale pink as he asked them, "Sorry to bother, but do you
know where we are?"
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
"Can't even find a seat himself. What a pushover." She flicked her
helmet's visor down. "Meet me at the starting line." Buckle sped off
before she could hear whatever response Overalls would have given.
KR-O:
Armlet turns around in the general direction of Cufflink's voice. "Hm?
We're at an auto show, are we not? I know dad announced a race
happening in a bit. Uh, I can't exactly point out the direction but
Tiara can."
HITAGASHI:
Coming up behind Shades as she was investigating a car, Pastel looked
over at someone she knew as a human and heard what the person next to
him said. Eyebrow raised, she smirked beneath her mask. "_Dia duit_,
Mister Shades. Ah'm 'fraid Ah'd 'ave t' buy 'er ou', aye?"
Pausing in her excited thoughts of how to announce, Tiara regarded the
person that had approached. "Meema said we're on the beach at the
Daten Auto Show and I made sure me and Armlet were on the sidewalk
because we don't like sand!" Not very helpful, Tiara.
TJ:
"Ah I see... I must've walked all the way back...And I have no idea
how to get home." Cufflink ended his thought out loud as he scanned
the area. His cheeks flush into a dark red as he gets more and more
flustered from getting lost.
"Damn it....!" He mumbles as he grits his teeth,
TIMERIFTS:
Overalls walked up to her boss "I found you a spot" she hesitated
"also someone asked me to join them in the race" she added quickly
hoping he was alright with her doing that, then realized why did she
care what he thought about what she did in her free time, but kept her
mouth shut because she liked having an income. Right that is why she
cared
KR-O:
Well there was a voice he hadn't heard in a long time. He turned,
somewhat excited to meet up with Pastel after so long. But he was
caught off guard by her current form. "Whoa...Sorry, but. You kicked
the bucket?" Changing the subject real quick in terms of the car,
"Well it's not like we can buy it off HP since he told us no.
Armlet tilted his head, "Man, you feel tense. Is everything okay?" He
scratched the back of his head, not sure what to make of this Demon.
"All I know is that the entrance to Hell is in the offices, so maybe
try to go back to the Mayor's building?" He said that, but he doesn't
exactly know where that is either.
TJ:
"Ah... That
TJ:
is a good idea! Thank you!" Cufflink's mood seems to imrpove for 3
seconds until he starts to chide himself for not thinking that. "Have
a nice night." Bowing again he quickly sprints off to who knows where.
HITAGASHI:
"Aye, kicked th' bucket, got on th' news, e'en 'ad a funeral.
Fasc'natin', that." Scratching at the horns protruding from her head,
she grimaced. "Wishin' I coul' figured ou' tha' disguise shite. An'
th' fact's tha' Ah've go' bets on this race, aye? Gotta win i' good.
So Ah'd nae le' 'er buy 'em all." Abbie glared at the blue lady, eye
twitching hardcore.
Tiara waved at Cufflink as he left, yelling out directions for him to
follow to get to Hell Corps faster. She turned to look up at her
brother. "Why do people ask me stuff? I thought everyone knew to
talk to Meema or Papa."
NAIVESPACEMAN:
Furcoat was in the process of a yawn when Overalls walked back up to
him. Well, she was back before the ten minutes were up. That was a
good sign. "Good." He replied, about to tell her to lead the way
before she mentioned that someone wanted her to join them in the race.
"The race? Well. If you get dirty, you aren't allowed to touch me or
my clothes until you clean yourself." He spoke sternly. It was wise
for her to not mention Buckle as being the one who asked. He would
have likely not allowed her to go out of spite. "Now, show me to my
spot before you go."
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls nodded, leading him to the spot she found, hoping so badly he
liked it, since she actually did look and stumble upon it before being
interrupted "Will do sir" she smiled at him, happy to get more of a
longer leash so to say, she looked at him, watching to see his
reaction to the spot
KR-O:
"Wow, it made the news? Now I feel like an asshole for not seeing
that. I'm sure you'll figure things out with your new powers. Maybe
ask HP? He's an expert on that. Just how do you think we have perfect
cosplays?" He was pretty much ignoring anything that had to do with
the race, he was just wanted friendly banter.
Armlet shrugged, "Probably because they may not know who dad and
father are." I mean, that's a safe bet.
HP spoke into the receiver again, "Alright, if you have your cars
ready, make your way on to the track and we'll begin shortly!"
NAIVESPACEMAN:
Furcoat followed after her, stopping when she showed up to the spot
she found for him. He stepped forward and looked over the spot. It was
a decent spot, far up into the stands. Far enough that the smoke
shouldn't cover his face and body. "Wonderful." He walked over and
took a seat, laying one leg over the other. "Go on. And you're not
allowed to lose."
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls nodded, heading down to the track, looking for Buckle, not
exactly sure how Fur would take her riding on the bike with the person
that disrespected him, but to her she was just excited to get invited
by anyone to join them in this.
OSCARK9:
While Gloves was waiting for the others to show up. He turn off his
green motorcycle and plays his favourite music; "The Other Side" by
Jason Derulo, before the race starts. "Man, I love this song." He
smile with the music.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt heard the announcement and laughed. "HAHA Finally! Let's
kick some ass Wristband!" He yelled as he revved the engine. Peeling
out from where the car was parked, he drifted around a bit as he made
his way to the race track.
Bowtie heard the message too. She however was much less flashy. She
casually drove over to the race track and took her time doing it. She
did get very annoyed by Undershirt's showboating.
OSCARK9:
When Gloves saw the others coming to the track. He cut his music short
and put his phone away in his pocket and starts his engine. "Alright,
lets do this." He said to himself happily and roaring his engine
loudly.
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
Buckle was at the starting line fiddling with something on her bike
when she saw Overalls walking onto the track.
"So Furry let you race with me after all." She shouted from the
starting line.
HITAGASHI:
Laughing, Pastel shook her head. "Aye, breakin' news. Got pumped
full o' lead. Ain't so fun, ye ken? Messy an' all tha'. An' agains'
th' rules. Nae guns 'llowed." She shrugged, shaking her head once
more. "Ye'd think some'n who borrowed money from me would ge' tha'
bu' sadly tha' ain' 'ow thin's wen' a' all." She seemed to give
thought to his suggestion and nodded. "Bu' aye, might 'ave t' do
tha'."
"Meema why didn't you tell him where to go? We don't know and you
were __right__ there!" Tiara pouted up at him but spoke once more to
her brother. "They're dumb then, right?" Cammy grinned from her
position in her car, helmet firmly in place and heavy duty seat belts
ready. She was definitely ready.
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls walked up to the bike, kinda shrugging "he doesn't exactly know
I am racing with you, also he does not like being called Furry" she
shrugged, trying to defend him
KR-O:
"Yeesh, sounds rough. At least you're doing fine right now." At least
she wasn't DEAD-DEAD. But ok, I have to go and. Participate in this
race. Massie you're being my passenger." Shades got into the car and
started it. Massie shrugged and went into the passenger's seat bucking
up. Safety first and all that.
"Laaaater!" Shades called out as he left.
HP looks up at the sky trying to think of something, "Well, Tiara. I
guess since I'm not wearing the black suit, they don't know. Don't be
too hard on them. Now, you two be good, I'm gonna gonna have a little
fun." He walked to his car before running back to the children, "And
_NO_ Earth magic shenanigans!" As soon as HP turned around, Armlet
stuck his tongue out. He was SO doing Earth magic shenanigans.
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
Buckle chuckled (badumtss). "You didn't tell him? He's gonna have a
fit once he sees us in the winners circle with the angels' car. Oh,
and take this." She grabbed a helmet off of the ground and handed it
to her racing partner. "Safety first or something like that."
TIMERIFTS:
She laughed weakly "yeah, he is gonna have a fit if we lose" she put
the helmet on "thanks" feeling like a bit of a badass climbing onto
that bike, she was gonna race with a buncha other people which was
pretty cool, right?
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
Buckle put on her own helmet and hopped on the bike in front of
Overalls. "Race should be starting soon. Might want to get your weapon
out." She put a hand on her belt. "I can always use mine in case
things get too hairy."
KR-O:
HP drove up to the starting line and checked to see if the other
competitors were ready to go. Well, he didn't actually care. He was
not playing by the rules, he just wanted to show off this cool car he
made. "Alright, if you're not by the starting line in a minute
well...You'll have to catch up!"
Shades put down his phone once HP rolled in, "About time. Hopefully I
don't turn this car on its wheels." Last thing he wants is to wreck an
expensive car that isn't his.
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls looked down at herself "I would have to get off the bike to
summon my weapon" she laughed nervously "yours would probably work
better" she stated, as she climbed on the bike. She looked at the spot
she picked out for Furcoat, hoping she doesn't disappoint him.
HITAGASHI:
Tiara turned her attention to Armlet. "Is it earth magic if I light
rocks on fire and have you throw them at people?"
KR-O:
". . ."
"Yes." Armlet replied. "It does.That could make the race interesting,
huh?"
HITAGASHI:
"We'll call it dragon magic he can't argue because if he does I'll
light his shoes on fire." She nodded to herself, pulling the mic up.
"Drivers get ready! We've got less than a minute before the race
begins! No cheating and by that I mean if you play it safe you play
it lame and you're a cheater cheater pumpkin eater!"
KR-O:
Jokki walked into the starting line, in a position he thought he
wouldn't get run over by cars... Hopefully. He had a flag in hand,
looking at a watch before he picked it up. "On your marks.."
Meanwhile, Armlet began to compress some of the sand into stone.
"Let's start out small. Like if this was hail...But aflame."
"Get set..." Jokki continued. " ___GO!___ "
Right before the drivers could hit the gas pedal, Jokki launched a
sand pillar into the air for his own safety.
CURIOUS PYROBIRD:
Buckle gunned her engine and sped past Jokki's pillar. "Here, take
this." She unfastened her belt and it transformed into her
trident."It's got quite a reach, so don't let any angels scratch up my
bike, alright," Buckle shouted over the wind as she passed it behind
her.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt put the hammer down and rocketed off the starting line.
going 0-60 in 2.5 seconds made it easy to pull out front for the
moment.
Bowtie put the pedal to the metal and peeled off the starting line.
She did spin her tires a bit, causing her to not get quit the jump
Undershirt did. But none the less she did get a good start.
TIMERIFTS:
Ralls took it, nodding, readying it. She decided as they were moving
to turn around, so she kicked her legs over so she was facing
backwards, all in one smooth movement. She was ready to push away
anyone who got close to the bike. Her heart was suddenly beating
faster as she got super excited to be doing this
KR-O:
HP hit the gas pedal, causing the tires to kick up ridiculous amounts
of sand into the competition behind him. It didn't take him to long to
be up to par with Undershirt who looked like a good first target.
As Shades sped off, Massie unstrapped herself from the car and
summoned two swords form her namesake, merging them to summon her
electric guitar. "Uh, Massie, I don't think that's safe!"
"That's the point, Massie replied, putting on some goggles to protect
her eyes. "If we're gonna get wasted, we will do it historic on the
fury road!!"
Shades has never been more mortified in his life.
"Besides, I don't think a lot of cars can handle sonic booms." She
added before she climbed outside the car.
OSCARK9:
Gloves summoned his gloves into gauntlets and drove his motorcycle
like there's no tomorrow. Excitement was in the air and catching up to
the other racers. "Yahoo!" He scream in excitement.
HITAGASHI:
Swerving out of the starting line to distract those behind her, Cammy
tore through sand to catch up to Shades and Massie. A manic grin was
on her face though it looked more like rage than anything and her
Ferrari tore its way up to the angel pair. Bring it on, lady, she
could definitely see Massie. This was gonna be fun!
OSCARK9:
He was catching up to the racers and as he saw at his first racers. He
saw 2 demon girls driving on a same bike and one of them was holding a
trident.

SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt looked over and Saw HP closing in on him. "What the hell?"
he asked in anger. "Hey Wristband, take care of this guy will ya?"
"You got it boss" she said as she jumped on to the roof of the car.
She transformed her wristband into he butterfly swords and jumped onto
the roof of HP's and plunged her blades into the cockpit roof. She
lost her balance a bit and had to bail back to Undershirt before
falling off.
Meanwhile Bowtie set her sights on Gloves. She speed up and rammed
him. But she miss judged the speed and didn't do as much damage as she
would have liked.
HITAGASHI:
Wild grin firmly on her face, Cammy swung her car about, whooping and
hollering loudly as she slammed the side of her car into Shades' and
sped forward a bit to set her sights on the end. Man, if only this
were Mario Kart, she'd get a Blue Shell for sure.
KR-O:
As the sword pierced the roof of his car, HP hit the breaks to try and
tried to get Wristband off her balance. Setting the car on autopilot,
he climbed out of the window to get the sword. It should come in
handy.
"What the hell!?" Shades swerved a little to get away from Cammy
before getting back on track. But this may have cost him something....
Massie fell of the car and he saw that via the side mirror.
"That's what you get for not wearing a seat belt, pendeja!"
Massie lay there in the sand for a bit before lifting her head up and
spitting out sand. "Gross...."
OSCARK9:
"Why you..." Gloves set her sights on Bowtie and rammed her. She took
some damage the way that he liked it.
KR-O:
Armlet got a decent sized rock ready. He got Tiara to light in on fire
and tried his best to see through all the fuzziness the sand offered
him. "Alright, hopefully I don't blow up dad.." He threw the rock
before launching it with a strong kick enhanced by Earth magic.
Quite a kick too because it SMASHED through the hood of Bowtie's car,
taking out the motor.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"What the hell" Bowtie said as she regained control of her car. "Why
you...." She started before she looked up at the sky and noticed a
giant fire ball hurtling toward her. "Well fuck" she said as the ball
of fire exploded her car. After the explosion faded away, Bowtie was
sitting on the sand charred black and some of her hair on fire as she
held the steering wheel in her hand. She coughed some soot out of her
lungs before collapsing on her back.
(( OOC: The roleplay will be continued at some other time. Thank you for
participating today! ))
LAST TIME ON DCM: Angels were invited by an anonymous individual to come
and look at Daten's annual Auto Show by the beach. All was going well
until Demons showed up. Despite Demons coming off as provocative to
Angels, they decided to call it truce after both sides were asked,
nicely, to not make a mess of all these cars. But Demons always have
their ways, they own the damn beach! Deciding that Angels can't have fun
on the beach for one day, they call for a sudden race against a custom
made Nissan GT-R made by your's truly. With the race underway, the first
competitor is out. Will the Demons reign supreme in the auto world? Will
Angels??? Or will both suffer heavy losses in good cars!?
(( OOC: Reminder to also have this page:
http://dcmissionaries.boards.net/thread/119/event-dying-historic-nudist-road
open! You will need it if you're participating in the race. ))
KR-O:
Seeing he had a good chance to get back at the pair of Angels in the
lead, HP readies the weapon left behind by Wristband. His grin widens
as he inserts the weapon into something that looks like a cannon
mounted on the passenger's seat. Putting the car on autopilot, he aims
carefully. Then he fires, popping one of the tires successfully. He
cheers to himself before going back to the wheel where he presses a
button. Some tricked out tumbaburros appear, probably spiked. Hitting
nitro boost, he catches up to Undershit before ramming the front of
the GT-R with the back passenger's seat, taking out the other back
tire.
"That's what you get for thinking you're hot stuff!"
HP then hits reverse before speeding off back into the lead.
Armlet readies another stone with Tiara setting it aflame. He's
aiming, but that won't do him any good. It's not like he can even
"see" properly. Taking a gander he launches the flaming rock into the
air before giving it a good kick to send it off. He can't tell if it
missed or not, but judging by no exploding noises, he assumes he
missed. No big deal, he's got more stones where that came from.
KR-O:
Massie is picked up by Jokki who immediately starts to dust her off
and see if her injuries are treatable with a simple first aid. She
tells him she's fine and Jokki brings her along to find any others
that may have been stranded on the track.
Massie points out a charred part of the racetrack, as if some
meteorite came by.
"Yeesh," Jokki started, "Hey, you. Are you ok?" He asked Bowtie.
HITAGASHI:
Tiara grinned wickedly following her brother's failed launching and
proceeded to switch her namesake into a hammer, light the hammer on
fire, and then hurl it into the race. Mostly to avenge the miss. But
also because her Meema never said she couldn't throw her hammer. She
watched as it sore upwards and then came down, smacking into one of
Shady's doors. Not hard enough to destroy it, but definitely enough
to stick into it with a spike. "Oops."
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt saw HP fire one of Wristbands swords out of some kind of
canon thing and popped one of his tires. "That dirty bastard!" he
yelled as he struggled to regain control of the car. When HP popped
the other tire, he lost all control and the fact that Wristband was
trying to strangle him as she held on for dear life. Undershirt was
sent into a wild spin out before hitting a dune and flipping over. The
two of them flew through the windshield and both ended up getting a
mouthful of sand. The two of them spat out the sand. "Ow, my pride"
Undershirt said before yelling at the top of his lungs "YOU CHEATING
BASTARD!"
KR-O:
Shades was starting to feel pretty safe after Massie's blunder. He may
be dead last, but that was alright. He glanced around for a bit and
then something caught his eye. What the hell was....oh shit that was
coming in right for him. With very little timr to react he hit the
breaks, letting his car take the hammer's impact. There may or may not
have been a high pitched yell. It's a mystery.
TJ:
Cufflink suddenly appeared in HP's car out of thin air.How he got
there, he doesn't know. And honestly it doesn't matter because it
looks like he's having three mini heart attacks at once.
KR-O:
HP didn't know how this kid got in his car, but might as well make it
worth it.
Putting the vehicle on autopilot (again) he grabbed Cufflink by the
collar and brought him close. "I don't know who you are. But I have a
particular set of skills.... Anyways I have no fucking idea how you
got in here but don't go about doing any funny business."
TJ:
"Wasnt planning any!" Cufflink promptly said and made a slight choking
sound. He was at the office one minute about to open a file and now he
was in a car at an insane speed with a chance of death.
KR-O:
"That better be the case. Anyways, you don't look familiar. I'm
guessing you're a new employee. If that's the case, I hope you're
ready for your first real job. You're going to help take down the rest
of the competition from getting the lead!"
He let go of Cufflink, getting back on the wheel.
"Don't worry, though. We're not in any immediate danger." HP said
confidently. Hopefully he didn't jinx himself.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Bowtie walked over to Undershirt slightly charred and her shoulders
slumped. "Holy shit, what happened to you?" Undershirt asked with his
arms folded. "Shut it" Bowtie said. "Wow, what a bitch" Wristband
thought. "Hey is that Massie? HEY OVER HERE!" he yelled as he waved
his arms.
TJ:
He nods and gulps; he was really hoping that he could avoid all of
this. But it looks like he has to be useful. Cufflink looked back at
the other cars and immediately felt a lump form in his throat; close
range weapon plus cars racing equals him either losing his name sake
or falling out the window.
KR-O:
Massie waved at Undershirt and started to jog her way over with Jokki
to them.
"Wow, you all look like you've seen better days..." Jokki remarked as
he looked over to Undershirt's wreck. "Anyways, no broken anything for
medical assistance?
OSCARK9:
While Gloves was still in the race with his green kawasaki motorcycle.
He saw Shades and his car stop on the side of the road. Gloves was
wondering to himself why Shades stop his car. So he slow down for a
bit and drove his bike besides Shades car to see what's going on.
"Hey, sir. I was wondering why..." he was about to finish his own
question until Gloves saw a hammer on his car's door and switch his
own question to a different one. "Why do you have a hammer on your
door?" he asked Shades.
KR-O:
Shades stared absentmindedly into the abyss. He shrugged and sighed as
if this was something normal.
"Cause Demons' ain't shit." He pointed to the hammer stuck on the
door, "Them's Demon colors. Someone's playing dirty."
He wasn't sure if he was to keep going, he already did lose Massie
somewhere back there. "Anyways, aren't you participating in the race?
You should try to catch up to others. I'll be fine."
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"We're fine" Undershirt said as coughed out the last bit of sand.
"Just a little scraped up. Yeah, HP really screwed us over."
"Freaking cheater is what he is" Wristband said.
"Speak for yourself, I had a giant meteor come out of nowhere and blow
me up" Bowtie remarked.
KR-O:
Before Massie could say anything, she stared at Bowtie in disbelief.
"A...meteor?" It was strange. The news said nothing of a meteor shower
hitting the Earth.
"Well at least you lot are fine." Jokki said, "And you should expect
Demons to cheat all the time. We're never honest with our games." He's
not wrong.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt raised an eyebrow. "You guys are admitting to your own
cheating?" he asked with a laugh. "That's a new one."
"Yeah a meteor. At least that's what I think it was. I only got a
glimpse of it before it, you know, blew up my car" Bowtie said,
clearly pissed off by the whole thing. To be taken out by another
competitor was one thing, but to be taken out by a freak of nature was
another. At least she thought it was a freak of nature.
OSCARK9:
"Yes I am." He answers him. "Well okay, sir. Just be safe and hope to
see you on the road again." He said to him. "See ya!" He shouted at
him while he drove off and waving behind his back to him.
KR-O:
Shades waved back before looking at the car with his hands on his
hips. "Like hell am I going back on that road. I'm too old for this."
He did try to pry off the hammer but to no avail and decided to walk
off back to the auto show, hoping to catch up with anybody else that
lost the race.
"The things Western Demons do is anything but noble, you should know
this." As if Jokki himself was an honest man.
"That's pretty rough," Massie commented to Bowtie. "I'm still not
buying that it was a natural occurrence. I'm investigating this." Then
she started off back to the auto show.
HITAGASHI:
While all this chaos happened, Bifocals had been poking around at
cars, taking pictures for her brother's boss, and vaguely observing
the situation over in the race. Well, until she heard mention of a
meteor? That was odd. She looked up at the sky, blue eyes trying to
track anything being there. Nothing. That thought in mind, she
stepped closer to Jokki and his group in time to hear him talk about
Western Demons being, well, the way they were. "Oh trust me, they
used to be noble. And then technology happened and no one seemed to
grasp what truces, cease fires, and peace treaties were."
KR-O:
"Western Demons used to be nice kids," Jokki said in agreement with
Bifocals. "But then everything changed when Frock started
infrastructure in the West. Might as well give the cherry the West if
he wants to keep it as a colony.."
Massie squinted her eyes at Jokki. She was hearing history she never
heard of or Jokki's metaphors were getting...too out there.
"I can't tell if you're serious or not.." She said, only to be
responded with, "I'm being both."
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"All Demons are the same to me. But you're the first I can actually
tolerate a conversation with. So congrats bud!" he said with a cocky
smile.
"IF YOU FIND THAT A PERSON DID IT, LET ME BURN THEM ALIVE!!!" Bowtie
yelled as Massie ran away.
KR-O:
"You sound like the whitest motherfucker I've ever come into contact
with..." He grabbed Undershirt, opening his mouth, "Hello, is Donald
Trump in there?"
Massie snorted, trying not to laugh.
Shades managed to find the group, tilting his head at what's going on.
He wasn't going to ask questions, curious to see where this was going.
HITAGASHI:
Bifocals felt her mouth open and close a few times at both the
statement from the angel in front of her. Undershirt, she thought his
name was, had just said something stupid. And the demon he was
speaking to had said something weirder. "I don't think I've heard a
statement that stupid since World War II. And there was a lot of
stupidity then." As she said this, Abbie cracked her knuckles from
right behind where the group was. Yeah. Undershirt, why?
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Undershirt was taken aback by this, though quickly grew pretty pissed.
"I take back what I said about you being tolerable. When was the last
time you brushed your teeth?" he asked plugging his nose and
pretending to gag.
Wristband and Bowtie just looked at each other and shrugged. "Does he
always get like this?" Bowtie asked.
"Unfortunately" Wristband replied.
KR-O:
Jokki let go of Undershirt laughing, "Says you, I am very hygienic.
You are questionable at best!" He widened his grin to reveal his
pearly whites, all nice and sharp. "You Western Angels are so easy to
anger." He added in.
"Oh come on, Jokki, you said you'd stop teasing people." Shades said,
resting an arm on the Demon's shoulder.
Seeing as she had nothing to contribute to the conversation, she
continued her investigation of these meteorites. She checked all
possible places, but she hasn't exactly gone behind the stage where
the race was announced. "Hmm.." It was vacant at the moment, so she
should be allowed to head back there, right?
HITAGASHI:
Shaking her head, she rubbed the bridge of her nose as she felt a
headache coming on. "Seriously?" Turning to Jokki to give him her
full attention and to dismiss Undershirt as, well, not worth her time,
she held out her hand. "I'm sorry these modern day angels are stupid.
This guy," she pointed at Shades, "doesn't count. I'm pretty sure
he's an oddity."
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"Well my mouth would be a lot cleaner if I did just receive a mouthful
of sand" Undershirt said said. before turning his head the other way
and folding his arms.
"So, what happened to you Shades? I thought you were still racing?"
Wristband asked. She tried to do a mental count of who that would even
make left in the race.
"Yeah, get hit by random Meteors too?" Bowtie asked. Mostly because
she didn't want to be the only one taken out by nature.
KR-O:
Jokki stuck out his tongue at Undershirt before teasing Shades about
being called an oddity. "Hear that, you're SPESHUUUUL." He said,
piking at Shades' cheek.
Shades let out a weird noise, smacking Jokki's hand away. "Anyways...
I would be racing it if weren't for the fact that a flying hammer
wrecked my car's door. The car is operable, But Demons ain't playing
fair."
Jokki looked around the auto show, "Come to think of it, none of the
demons here so far have done anything suspicious. Everybody's pretty
tame so far."
HITAGASHI:
There seemed to be a distinct pause, the pa system seeming to come to
life. "Sorry, Mister Ironeeeeeee! I didn't mean to throw it at your
car! I was trying to hit the motorcycle!" Crackling noises came from
the other end of it as well. "Can I have my tiara back?"
KR-O:
"Dern kids," Shades said. He looked back at the distance he walked.
"I'll get the tiara later."
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"I told you man, Demons are always up to something" Undershirt said
turning back around to Shades.
KR-O:
Well that totally didn't give Massie people to suspect. She let
herself into the backstage where she caught Armlet and Tiara preparing
another flaming rock. She crossed her arms, tapping her foot. She
cleared her throat to announce her presence.
"So I guess this explains the 'meteorites.' "
Armlet froze in place at the sudden voice. Feeling caught, he was
ready to start crying and beg for forgiveness, but he wasn't going to
submit so quickly. He felt a tear or two fall from his face, but it
could have been the sand.
HITAGASHI:
Turning around quickly, Tiara hissed loudly at the intruder. "GO
AWAY! You're not allowed to upset my brother! LEAVE." With that,
she spit a fireball at Massie's feet, more a warning than anything
else. She thought it had to be a rule to not sneak up on Armlet. It
was rude, after all, since he couldn't see. "We're playing, you go be
stupid somewhere else!"
KR-O:
"W-We're not going to be in trouble, are we?" Armlet said with a meek
voice.
Massie backed up from the fireball and went back to her initial spot,
standing her ground. "Depends. But I don't think making rock fire
balls is something you two should be playing with." She tapped her
chin and shrugged. It's not like an Angel was hurt so she couldn't
instigate anything against the children. She just let them be.
She arrived back to the group, with her hands behind her head. You
know, the usual anime elbows up pose.
"Well, they weren't meteorites, just some shenanigans by kids."
"Well at least you Demons kept it fair for once," Shades said to Jokki
and Bowtie.
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
"WHO THE FUCK WAS IT I WILL DESTROY THEM!!" Bowtie yelled as flames
emanated from her eyes. Chill Bowtie, damn. Undershirt and Wristband
just stared at her
HITAGASHI:
A hand came down on Bowtie's shoulder, grip firm as the person held
her in place. "Miss, I'm sure they didn't mean anything by it. Now,
I know you're likely upset but even demons have to have some standards
about not harming children." She grinned, rather coldly, Bifocals'
eyes narrowing on the demon in her grasp. "Right?"
KR-O:
"They're all spoiled rotten if you ask me," Jokki chimed in. "I know
who the children are and will report them to their parents if you want
that Bowtie. They'll take it from there."
SUPERSAIYAN5100:
Bowtie exhaled slowly, the fire slowly disappearing from her eyes.
"You're right, I guess my competitive nature got the best of me" she
said as she relaxed a bit more.
Undershirt and Wristband were relieved that the situation was defused
without any damage.
OSCARK9:
While Gloves was back on the road and catching up to the other racers.
He was thinking of what Shades had told him right before he left him.
"Them's Demon colors. Someone's playing dirty." Shades said to him.
"Someone's playing dirty? Why would they do something like that?" He
question himself. "Well, whatever it is. I better finish this race as
fast as possible." He said to himself and he drove his motorcycle
faster than before.
