The Valley of The Shadow of Death

"FUCK!"

 Roads is not having a good day. When he returns, the first thing he does is throw absolutely everything off of his desk, sweeping it to the side. Stacks of papers, pencils, drawings, Kouzou's gift, and his computer all get thrown to the floor. Roads then sits down with his heads in his hands at the now-clear desk.

He stays still for quite some time. Occasionally, he will shift a bit, folding his hands in front of him like something is trying his patience, or he will glare at that ancient tome he's cast aside.

"...Fuck."

The second curse is quiet and subdued.

[Not going to say anything. Devon will just stand there awkwardly, like she didn't in years.]

Nothing you can give me.

[You're not the only one sighing.]

...

Cheng will probably come to beat you up though. Just a warning.
nietzsche_waifu: (SRS pondering)

[personal profile] nietzsche_waifu 2013-05-11 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
I'd do it myself, if it changed anything.
But it doesn't. It's pointless.

[Devon bares her teeth, only for a second.]

Everything... felt pointless.

...

When Nicolai makes his move, we'll know. It's hard to miss something like his castle.

[Nothing else remains to be said. Devon is just going to leave, unless stopped.]

I was too late after all...
mecha_eihwaz: (EVE: not symbolic)

[personal profile] mecha_eihwaz 2013-05-11 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
I'm in Angel Force. Fighting people who do such things is my job.

...But it doesn't happen nowhere near as often as on Earth. And not on Cosmic Ark itself.

Would killing Nicolai break the curse?
mecha_eihwaz: (EVE: chibi)

[personal profile] mecha_eihwaz 2013-05-11 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it's something we'll have to do sooner or later anyway, right?
mecha_eihwaz: (Theta: ambivalent face)

[personal profile] mecha_eihwaz 2013-05-12 12:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[Nod.]

About Sophia... She helped Nicolai even before he turned her into vampire, didn't she? Why would she do that?
mecha_eihwaz: (EVE: not symbolic)

[personal profile] mecha_eihwaz 2013-05-12 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
But you don't think she's beyond saving.
mecha_eihwaz: (Theta: living for tomorrow)

[personal profile] mecha_eihwaz 2013-05-13 09:55 am (UTC)(link)
But Nicolai's corruption will have to be lifted first...

You will do it. If it's possible, you will find a way.
mecha_eihwaz: (Default)

[personal profile] mecha_eihwaz 2013-05-14 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I don't think you've ever been beyond saving, either.

[Yeah, Josh is pretty pissed off too, with Contagio's death at best a Pyrrhic victory.]

So the bastard wants to make use of a bunch of nukes.
azure_savior: (Not a happy camper)

[personal profile] azure_savior 2013-05-12 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
And he's thrown in his lot with the Ruina too.

Which probably just means he's going to take whatever misery he can inflict on the world.
azure_savior: (Lineface)

[personal profile] azure_savior 2013-05-12 01:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Provide him an army, for one.

Judging by the Ruina we fought in the Arctic base, there's still three of them left: Aquila, Ignis, and Umbra. And as someone who's already fought the first two, they're loaded with firepower and they have the same kind of tech my machines do: running off of negative emotions.
azure_savior: (Prepared)

[personal profile] azure_savior 2013-05-17 02:19 pm (UTC)(link)
... Lucky us.

But even if he doesn't have an army, now he has a castle. Any idea if that has a practical purpose or is it just for show?
azure_savior: (Not a happy camper)

[personal profile] azure_savior 2013-05-23 06:28 am (UTC)(link)
So the biggest question now is...

... Considering all that, why are we still alive?
gudbye_despair: (...hmm)

[personal profile] gudbye_despair 2013-05-12 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Elena wobbles toward Roads.

Wobbles? Yes, because she's wearing a cardboard box painted silver and completed with fake plate metals and monitors. Her arms are sleeved inside springy hoses, and end on a pair of clamps.

She looks worried as she pats Roads with her clamps.

"Mr Roads... are you alright?"
gudbye_despair: (Hmm...?)

Oh this? Well, I just heard that you like robots... So I thought maybe I could comfort you better dressed like this...

Re: 2/2

[personal profile] gudbye_despair 2013-05-13 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
But you got more problem! Is it true that Mr. Cheng want to kill you? Don't worry Mr. Roads, I'll have your back if you ever want to run away.
gudbye_despair: (Hmm...?)

Re: 2/2

[personal profile] gudbye_despair 2013-05-13 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
I just realized that it'll be like eloping.
gudbye_despair: (Hm!)

Re: 2/2

[personal profile] gudbye_despair 2013-05-15 09:06 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no, I wouldn't dare... yet. I just mean that I will run with you and kill people for you if you ask.

Anyway, I know the story of your past with your ex, but what's with that guy Nikolai?

gudbye_despair: (Default)

[personal profile] gudbye_despair 2013-05-21 08:00 am (UTC)(link)
Because I love you.

Just by the way, I'm not wearing anything underneath this.
the_innocent_blade: (Something is wrong)

[personal profile] the_innocent_blade 2013-05-13 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds like it was a mess out there.
the_innocent_blade: (Shock)

[personal profile] the_innocent_blade 2013-05-13 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think sarcasm is going to help much. Neither will throwing things on floor.
the_innocent_blade: (Oh right like I care)

[personal profile] the_innocent_blade 2013-05-14 12:11 pm (UTC)(link)
You should take my advice. I'm actually able to get things done.
