Re: Inside

To Lore & Game Perhaps it says something about Octavia that her first thought upon learning about a game is considering how it might be weaponized. It's not that she's a living weapon built for combat or anything- oh wait, yeah. She literally is. Upon realizing that the monster has no real phys...

Re: Outside: Grass touch place

[Chaos] TASBot is silent for a while. There's something he doesn't like about this, and his conscience won't let him leave the pudu-girl to her fate. That said, he's quickly running out of things to say to stall for time. And Lidoro's asking so nicely... After a few more moments of silence, TASBot ...

Re: Inside

To Lore & Game Octavia leans in close to the demon, clearly fascinated. -so its effects are just to create the illusion of a real combat, and increase the thrill of the game? and everyone taking part agrees to this? how delightful!- It's not irony. To Octavia, combat has always been an unfortun...

Re: Inside

Octavia pauses doubtfully, unsure whether to take Micah's word for it. But upon seeing the demon obey his command without question, she relaxes. A flick of her wrist dismisses her sword into light, which reforms into her usual video camera. -ah, i'm sorry! i didn't realize that you were in control ...

Re: Apocalypse Junction

[Ruined Motorway- Rapid Robots] Assuming the two guns have markings to show it, TALBot would be able to tell from examining them that they fire a standard caliber. As for the car's engine, it had as much as life in it as TALBot was expecting, so his only reaction was to shrug lightly as he thought ...

A stomp, the robot reasons, usually triggers a ground-based attack, so he's already watching the floor and staying light enough on his feet to whip his foot out of the way of ...
