Big Honking Crossover: the Game

[Quirk]

"Thank you for the assist back there. It was foolish of me to try such a dangerous stunt."

Go to the nearest project manager and warn them of the graveler. That thing could kill people!

"Ugh...Okay. Okay. Company's got a poliwrath working at another site. I'll call it in and we can get that out of there. Hey, you and the guy you were with, that guy over there *points to jack* was looking for ya."

"Not a problem. We both should have just run from the start."

Varen looks for someone who may know first aid, because he got hit repeatedly by a fucking Graveler.

(6) The site was ready for this and has several medics on the grounds, one of which is a licensed medical alchemist. You are lead inside the tent and get patched up.

You had several shattered ribs, some internal bleeding, various other bruises and fractures, and enough adrenaline to drown a man.

[MasterBlade]

Ryoshi walks over to Jack, recognising him from the day before.

"Hello sama, how may I be of assistance?"

[Dalmationer]

Elephants are the bad guy here.

[Quirk]

Elephants are the bad guy here.

PSSST they're not supposed to know that yet >:|

[Wiwaxia]

"Yes. Yes, I'm in. I'll help. Now what the hell is a 'Bleeding Tree'?"

[Kocel232]

Would Jack have seen Varen leave the site and head for the medical tents?

[Quirk]

Would Jack have seen Varen leave the site and head for the medical tents?

Yes. Medical tents were on-site btw.

[Kocel232]

Jack waits patiently for Varen to exit the medical tent.

[Rokenian]

After however long it takes him to get patched up, Varen emerges from the tent.

[Kocel232]

Jack puts on his best award-winning smile and walks over.

"Oh, hey, are you Varen? Varen Selith?"

He puts out his hand for the standard friendly handshake.

"The name's Jack Heel, I'm a reporter for the Daily Bugle. Say, you came out of that building pretty scuffed up. What'd you manage to piss off?"

[Rokenian]

"Yes, that's me."

Varen shakes Jack's hand.

"A friend and I found a Graveler down in the tunnels, and it beat the shit out of me. I guess it didn't help that we threw dead Digletts at it. Say, didn't I see you at the cafeteria yesterday?"

[MasterBlade]

Ryoshi mutters several curse words in Polweepkwan, having been ignored by this individual twice.

He looks for something that needs repair and attempts to repair the fuck out of it to relieve anger.

[Kocel232]

"Yeah, see, I felt like a moron earlier because of just that. See, I'd been looking for good article material all day, so my brain was zapped. Low and behold, I walk right by someone I had promised a friend of mine I'd keep an eye out for..."

He crosses his arms.

"... See, I knew this guy from the last place I worked at. We were good pals. Anyways, he calls me up the day before I leave and tells me that he's sending me a package to take here. Says that a friend of his has a kid that decided to come over here and help out, and that they were looking for someone to help get a care package to him. Well, I couldn't exactly say no. Hell, he wasn't the only one who wanted me to help with something like that, I came over here with a crapload of letters and such that people in New York wanted me to get to relatives they were worried about."

Jack chuckles.

"I mean, I'm a reporter, not a messenger boy, but I can understand worrying about family, right? So, this morning, I come across the last package I'd promised I'd deliver. And I remember the photo he emailed to me. And then I think, 'well, gee, I think I've seen him around.' Let me tell ya, I felt like a total idiot. I was going to look for ya in the cafeteria tonight, but, well, here we are. I came to get some pictures of this place. Sure is a mess. Whole damn place is, really. Damned shame. Makes me want to give up my job at the Bugle so I can stay and help rebuild. Ah well..."

He turns to Ryoshi.

"Oh, wait, kid, were ya talking to me? Sorry 'bout that. I can be a bit airheaded at times, I admit. I thought you were talking to someone else behind me or something."

[Kaynato]

"Yes. Yes, I'm in. I'll help. Now what the hell is a 'Bleeding Tree'?"

"That's what I'm trying to find out, and hopefully with your help it'll be easier."

[Quirk]

Note: this is for Ross_Varn, as he has not been active for the past few days.

The liquid rushes in faster than you can react, filling the entire elevator car with orange. There's a shudder as it apparently hits the bottom of the shaft. You swim to the emergency hatch and attempt to open it: and it's not working. Your oxygen is burning up and its not working.

You keep trying until your lungs are screaming, and then you open your mouth.You feel yourself choking as the liquid fills your lungs.

...
...

Wait a second, you can breathe in this shit.

You are now standing in a sunken elevator. Wat do?

[Wiwaxia]

"You mentioned an informant? How could we track them down?"

[MasterBlade]

Disregard shallow apology, continue repairing the fuck out of things.

[Rokenian]

"Oh, hey Ryoshi. I guess I didn't see you from the other side of Jack."

Varen then returns his attention to Jack.

"Yeah. Damned Angels. Demons is what they are."

He lets out a sigh.

"You said you had a care package from my parents? I told them I brought enough money to survive for a while, but I guess they still worry about me. Sorry you had to play courier."

[Kaynato]

"We have one form of contact. Getting his location is a whole other story, though. We need information that he - or she'd be willing to exchange for, or to prove that we can be trusted. That's why I want your help."

[Kocel232]

"Nah, it's fine, kid, I don't mind. I mean, hey, I give your folks some peace of mind and it gives me yet another thing to write about. Tell ya what, if anyone asks, I saw you pull out about five orphans from that building, and you barely took a scratch when you took on that groveller on your own, alright?"

He chuckles. Suddenly, something seems to dawn on Jack. He groans, putting his hand to his forehead.

"... Dammit, I left the package back at my apartment. Tell ya what, kid, what's your day looking like? We can swing by and grab it later if you don't have much else planned. Hell, maybe I can treat you and (what's his name, Royishi? Ryoski?) to something to eat before-hand. I've still got some cash on me, if we can find someplace other than the cafeteria to eat at."

He grimaces.

"I mean, I know this is a disaster area, but, damn, that stuff can get a little old after a while, you know? Need to find a way to keep your spirits up, amongst all this wreckage..."

[Rokenian]

"Uh, yeah, I guess I don't feel much like going back in for a couple of hours at least, after getting our asses handed to us. Some better food would be nice. Ryoshi seems kind of angry, though… I guess repairing things calms him down or something."

[MasterBlade]

Ryoshi has been offended to the point where he has entered chibi mode.

All Japanese people can do this.

He will probably calm down soon. But you have to give him props, you have never seen someone repair a line of cars that quickly before.

[Quirk]

But you have to give him props, you have never seen someone repair a line of cars that quickly before.

He repaired the fuck out of those cars.

[Rokenian]

Varen whistles at the newly repaired cars.

"…Damn."

[Kocel232]

Jack slowly raises his camera and takes a picture of the shiny, probably tricked-out cars. He speaks to Varen under his breath.

"... Does... Does he do this often?"
