Just when he thought his opinion of these people couldn't get any stupider, the idiot with the sword tries to get people to copy his ridiculous version of events...

And thinks everyone can read his hieroglyphics.

He stares briefly at the new level of stupid then returns to his paper.

Outline... maybe thats the way to start.

Snowblind
HP: 0; Condition: Out cold

When they took Grendel off her hands she sighed in relief as she was able to shut down. the near constant use of her abilites wasnt as bad as the fine control and focus she needed to keep the monsters temps so low that he didnt wake up and murderize them all. She hadnt pushed herself that hard in a loooong time not even against the Freedom League and it showed.

She managed to shuffle into the showers where the blissfully warm water cleansed about a weeks worth of cares away though her low body temp meant that the hot water was practically scalding to her and turned the room into a sauna almost instantly while she showered.

Upon exiting she dried off and dressed in the sweats and then shuffled into the conference room where she stared blankly at the pad in front of her before writing a mismatch hodge podge of stuff.

Getting woken in the middle of night is B&&s**t
Tattoos itch
Grendel was ugly I made him go night night
Rant and Rave Suck
Nice Save Geo
Alex has a nice @ss
Maggies a sweety and scary too.
Madame Curare is a bad@ss
Snowblind is the coolest LOL see what i did there? *smiley face*
Uncramping his hand(he hadn't wrote that much since College),the young Revolutionary turned to Snowblind and Maggie and said
"Reports coming along ok ladies? If you need a hand, just ask..."
When Alex turned to her to ask her and Maggie about their reports he was greeted by a low snoring sound as Jen basically had lagged out and face planted on the table a small dribble of drool was cooling on her face as she slept the sleep of the just *snerk* and exhausted.

"Wow, real charmer aren't you red? Got those girls eating right out of your hand there. Even I couldn't get a girl to sleep next to me on a first date, while you're right here pulling it off in front of everyone. It's very comendable." He commented in a near monotonous tone. His pencil danced aover the fingers of his left hand as he leaned back on the legs of his chair, pleased to be have been among the first ones to finish this bullshit.

"If you two really want something to draw from, here." Pressing the eraser against his paper, a simple flick of his wrist was enough to slide it over towards Nathan and Maggie. "Best to keep those things simple and to the point. Don't ovexagerate, only include what's strictly necessary. How I've always done, just my own personal advice though. Do what works for you two."
Am I dead? Am I alive? The answer may surprise you!

Maggie looks at the 5 sentences that Tsalmaveth wrote. "That's... succinct." Maggie offers with a smile. Hey, Shadophiliac, we could get more detail from a Magic 8 ball.

Maggie decided to go with what she knew. She put pencil to paper and started writing. Occasionally her tongue would come out to the side as she concentrated on her account.

Once upon a time there was a girl named Maggie. Maggie had issues. When there was no choice but to lock Maggie up because of her issues it ended up being a good thing. Maggie met Dr. Paul Harris, who came up with what was wrong with her and created a treatment to make her better.

Maggie naturally wanted to make up for any harm done when she was... unwell. An opportunity to do that was presented to her. An unfortunate man named Bill was also unwell and becoming a monster because of it. Maggie and some other friends were asked to track down Bill in a forest. They tracked Bill through a clearing he had recently had a conflict in. Maggie and her friends discovered that the conflict was with people working for the very people that asked Maggie and her friends to find Bill except they hadn't told the group that there had been a recent conflict. This made some of Maggie's friends... concerned.

They continued tracking Bill and found him by a stream, eating an animal, raw. Maggie asked if she could talk to Bill and the rest of her friends agreed. Maggie was trying to calm Bill and connect with Bill, it was working too! Up until a mean Greek lady and her friends showed up. Maggie's friends came out of hiding and had very strong words admonishing the Mean lady and her friends. There was blood.

Eventually mean Greek lady said it wasn't worth it and Stratos can do his own dirty work (or something like that). They all dissappeared.

Bill was induced to sleep and transported to secure place where he can be protected and happy.

He'd better be protected and happy.

And now Maggie needs a treatment at the earliest opportunity.

The End.


She huffs out a breath and puts down her pencil. WTF?

We were deployed from the aircraft with Red Death forgetting he doesn't have the power of flight.

Madame Curare deployed Maggie, Buzzbomb, and myself to scout the area and we found the site of the firefight between Grendel and the AEGIS team deployed before us.

Then we tracked Grendel down and he was feeding on a deer. Maggie wanted to reach out to him and try to subdue him with kindness. Red Death's childish crush on her caused him to try to interfere, but the others talked him out of it.

As she was initially successful, the Crime League arrived to claim him and a fight broke out. The group was led by the Greek woman from mythology. Hecate or Medea. I am not sure.

During the combat, someone sneak attacked her and delivered a mortal wound. I believe it was Tsalmaveth. I am not entirely sure why, but I just reacted and saved her life. I adapted my suit to form Device HX10287 which PSI stole the plans from MarsTech Advanced Research Labs for me to use in emergency situations. The device worked properly and her injuries were healed.

The Greek woman woke confused. She decided the fight wasn't going to go there way, and after some strange chanting by her, they all vanished. She did say Stratos was the one who wanted Grendel.

Both Red Death and Oni expressed dissatisfaction with my actions in saving the woman. I told them I would do it again in the future. If you have similar feelings, then just send me back to Blackstone. I will not let someone die if I can help it.

Maggie and Snowblind secured the creature and we exited on the transport.
He held the paper in his hand as he reads over it again. Satisfied, he folds it in half and places it down in front of him, with his hand resting on it.

He thought about his admission about saving an enemy's life in the future to Wainwright. It could cost him his place in this program.

But with him finally learning who he truly is, he isn't about to give that up for anyone or anything. Not even his freedom.

Everyone:

Madame Curare sequestered herself in a corner and began writing as tasked by Wainwright, not joining in the bits of conversations the others engage in, instead focusing on getting down her take on the events the group had been through. Once she finishes the platinum blonde woman silently pushes her paper away from her to show she is done then simply waits for the meal that had been promised.

Once everyone is done writing Wainwright silently picks them up, without reading them, and places them into a manila envelope then seals it shut. "Time for the meal you were promised, I'm sorry it won't be anything overly fancy. Just some warmed up leftovers from the meal you had earlier, the kitchen staff isn't due in for another few hours." As she speaks a few members of the guards enter the room carrying Styrofoam containers with microwaved samples of said earlier meal. None of it tastes good, but it is passible compared to some of your other past prison dining experiences.

The group is given rougly an hour to eat then the trash of the meal is gathered up by the guards, then Wainwright speaks up. "Now if you'll follow me I'll lead you to the part of the facility where you'll all be residing." Older woman then turns on her heel, heads for one of the doors as she leads the group. A short walk later, followed by the armed guards whom you all are getting accustomed to being around, Wainwright opens yet another door into a surprisingly large space that has two short halls on opposite ends that look to have a small number of doors on both sides that Wainwright explains are your room and that at this point there are enough that everyone gets one to themselves. There is a community living room with a television on short entertainment stand that also contains a dvd player connected to the television that Wainwright says doesn't have any connection to outside entertainment but that there are several options of movies inside the cabnet. Off to the left of that area is what one would expect to be some kind of kitchenette but only has empty cabinets linging the walls and two tables with folding chairs situated around them that you are told is where everyone will be eating when food is brought in.


Wainwright also adds that the group has the run of the spaces they've been in so far, except for the first room where the magical sigils were inscribed upon you. Basically it comes down to if you find a door that is locked don't try to open it or otherwise you'll be sent back to Blackstone, with your memory wiped of this place and what you've done to finish out your various prison sentences. Then Wainwright glances down at her watch and says that you've got almost two hours before lights out, and that for tonight the rooms have the basics in furnishings sufficient for a night's sleep and that in the next day your personal possessions from Blackstone should arrive and be given to you. Otherwise it would be a good idea to establish who has which room and take some time to relax after the mission. She adds that she will see you all in the morning, then takes her leave and is escorted out by the guards.

Madame Curare chuckles that in that slightly annoyed way most of you have come to understand is her usual way of chuckling. "Make no mistake, there is someone watching us. However, I would enjoy a good night's rest at this point in a bed that has to be at least somewhat more comfortable than what I have been sleeping on." With that Curare heads for the hall on the far end pausing to add. "I'm taking the room at the end of this hall, by the way." Then she makes her way to that room which all of you hear her open then close with enough time for her to enter said room.

Maggie follows and nods with great interest at everything they are shown. Three 2 foot wires from the TV, Handy garrotes. 35 one-inch-and-a-half screws from the kitchen cabinets, with 15 one-inch screws from the tables. 60 half-inch screws from the bedroom doors and 20 hinges. I could cause a LOT of havoc with all those and... holy F#<& I can feel real metal bedsprings from here in every room! You guys are idjits just begging to be flayed before a simultaneous disemboweling and exsanguination in preparation from me to stuff your meat shells with metal and use you as creepy handpuppets. Yippee!!!

Then she makes her way to that room which all of you hear her open then close with enough time for her to enter said room.
"I guess this one's the Girls's Wing." Maggie says following Curare down the hall and into one of the middle rooms. There's a sudden fit of giggles and clearly what sounds to be jumping on the bed before Maggie re-emerges, tucking her hair back into place.

She hurries to catch up with the director. "Uh, Mrs. Wainwright. I wanted to ask about my treatment." she says with a mix of hopeful and eagerness. "I've been self-treating like Dr. Harris taught me, but I could really use some with the TMS machine." NO!!! NO!! No! Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! please.

Cat Noir (Felicity Black)
Image
Condition: Healthy
HP: 4 ~ Luck: 4

Cat doesn't open her eyes until after the reports are collected and the food is brought out. She doesn't eat much, too sleepy. She doesn't show too much interest in the facilities they pass by or wainwright's explanation until she mentions two hours until lights out. "Jeeze....what time is it? We were dragged out in the middle of the night....helicopter ride two ways with a side stop to drop off the big guy, then rooting around the woods looking for said big guy..."

Once Wainwright makes her exit, rather than moving to claim a room, she didn't really care which she got since the insides would likely be identical, she instead moves to the entertainment unit and the cabinet housing the "entertainment options". After a brief look along the book-ended DVD cases, the cat burglar finds, luckily, exactly what she is looking for. Not a DVD one would expect to find among a collection meant to entertain grown adults, much less those of a criminal persuasion.

"In exchange for picking my room last, I'm calling dibs on the TV to watch a movie." she informs the others as she slides the DVD into the machine before lounging on the couch with the remote as colorful cartoon ponies and cheery music livens up the screen. My Little Pony wasn't exactly her "thing", nor was she a particular fan, but it was something she could watch to zone out, focus on something vapid and colorful and not require much in the way of active thought. She was too tired for that and the cartoon would help her wind down.

Jen snorted awake when Wainright took their reports and wiped ineffectually at her face as the food was delivered. More of the same but she wolfed it down without ceremony and when delivered to their rooms, she paused only long enough to note a few features then picked one at random and after closing the door face planted one of the beds where she promptly fell fast asleep.

Nathan is quiet during the meal and tour of their accommodations. He wonders briefly how they would react to any upgrades he might want to provide.

Shrugging it off for now, he picks a room down the hall opposite of Maggie and MC. He really doesn't want to have anything to do with the others, though he should probably stay around to make sure RD doesn't hassle Maggie too much.

But right now, he is just too tired to care. What time was it? They arrived near dawn and two hours to lights out? Wainwright is messing with them.

The warrior eat the food ceremoniously, as he does everything. It didnt matter that it was leftovers. He then follows the group into the living area, and as everyone departs to their respective rooms, he was about to do the same when Felicity turned on the TV and the flashy horses appeared. He was immediately captivated by the colours and the sound, and with visible surprise approached the TV cautiously. Without taking his sight from the screen he asked the cat burglar. "Ittai... what is this?"

Felicity looks away from the screen towards Oni and pats the next couch over. "Grab a seat swordsman and I'll tell you about Equestria." One the ancient Japanese warrior is seated, she starts pointing out characters on the screen. "Okay...so the purple one there is Twilight Sparkle. This DVD is an older season, but she's actually a princess and gets wings later, but she's got strong unicorn magic to start with and kind of the whole starting premise of the show is she is sent to this pony village to learn the magic of friendship, which is literal magic, not figurative.

The white one with the purple mane is Rarity, she's a seamstress and acts kind of full of herself sometimes, but is also really generous. The orange one is Apple Jack. She's strong and honest, most of the time. She tends to be really stubborn. The yellow one with the pink is Fluttershy, who is really shy, but really good with animals. The other winged pony in blue is Rainbow Dash. She's super fast, not unlike our own Buzzbomb. She's really competitive as well. And the last one that is all pink, is Pinkie Pie. She's....zanie. Not sure how to really explain her. She's just jokes, and gags and parties all the time."
Felicity pauses to give Oni a chance to chime in with further questions.

For once, Dave chose to not engage in the typical banter he'd started to enjoy with the others during their first mission. Instead he picked out the first unclaimed room in the lineup, and went in to get some rest. Using his abilities so extraneously today had done a number on him.

Wainwright stops when you call for her attention, listening intently to your question as a slight smile curls at the edge of her lips. "The Doctor should be here at some point tomorrow afternoon. That was the best I could with the advanced time frame."
