Denny2669 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 1 hour ago, Rakawan said: "Steak?" A soldier asks. "Get back to your exercises." The man bellows, but it is too late. "Steak, steak, steak." The word spreads like fire through the camp. Soldiers who were struggling to lift their rifles now shoulder them and send round after round towards the targets. Morale seems to lift. "You see." The man says. "See what you started? Now all their going to think about is a juicy well done steak. Now I..." He pauses and swallows, then titles his head. "Actually I don't have to do a gosh-darn thing." He says. His smile grows large, as he tosses you something that appears to be an air support charge. "You started this. You deal with it." He leans in. "The men are expecting steak." He says. "Unless you want to be scrubbing powder kegs for the next two days I recommend you start with that." He thumps an arm against his chest. "Knight-Commander Bill." He says. "And this is Representative Theresa, ambassador from the White Tiger Clan." Alice grinns at the pleasant word being repeated over and over. She and her masters will be so pleased with the work she'll do here... "Alice, no fancy title you'd be fond off. Member of the Voidwalkers, the only clan that allows me to sacrifice goats in the moonlight. By the way, how do I use this can opener?" 1 hour ago, Rakawan said: "While you struck me as tourists." The woman says. "And I did not think that tourists would want to be bored by the artistic drawings and martial prowess of the inhabitants. No, tourists just love watching people translate texts from dead languages." The sarcasm in her voice is undeniable. The colors on her robe and the warframe shimmer and suddenly she seems to perk up, her voice becoming happy and carefree. The warframe assumes a more formal stance, as its colors swap with the colors of her robes. "This is the Library of Phenix." She said. "Wherein lies the combined knowledge of the Tenno, living and dead." One of the scribes suddenly rises and walks directly into Luv... and passes right through her. He retrieves a scroll from the shelf and both he and the scroll phase through her, only to make a muffled thump as he sets it on the table. He sits on the chair and settles in, then resumes writing. "What do you mean with 'living or dead'?" Icarus asked. "Whatthef**kwasthat?" Luv asked, severely confused when the person just walked through her. Icarus shrugged it off as some holograph.

Denny2669 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 "OK..." Luv replied, still taking it the wierdness. "So, you explained the 'dead' part, but what did you mean with 'living'?" Icarus asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another flash of light and you can see several Tenno in a wide courtyard dueling and practicing Kata's around you. Two of them are running through Katas beneath what appears to be some sort of motion detector, as a segmented visual copy of them mirrors their movements. Seven of the Tenno, all clad in deluxe skins, turn to the woman. "Master Mira." One says. "How is Sam? Has she recovered?" "She is still in a coma." The woman in the robes says. "Resume your training, there is nothing you can do to help her right now. She will heal at her own pace." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Suda can be a bit zealous, but you can't deny her results. But me?" She paused for a moment, considering what to say. "My primary purpose have always been to aid the Tenno, and it's my goal to guide them as best I can. While gathering knowledge does help me accomplish that. I strive to explore the universe to improve my own understanding of it, but I suppose I also do it because it's.. fun."

Her excitement had no end, finally people will get to taste her meat! Finding a (mostly) empty area not too far away, she imagined her meat house just standing there in its magnificence. One thing that stood in her way however was a small lonely pothouse, the green label under the handle signaling to aproachers that it's available. Unfortunately, it won't stand like that for long... or stand at all for that matter, as she raises the device, points directly at it, and presses the button with a careless expression. ((Quoting messed up)) Icarus ignored the fact that she ignored his question, and adopted a more serious expression "Grineer attacks?" He asked regarding this 'Sam'.

The Mirages lips twitched as she heard the word 'health official', before bursting into laughter and almost dropping the device. Actually, she didn't need it anymore anyway, so she let it fall it the ground with a thump. How she pitied objects bound by gravity... only, not really, she found it hilarious. A health official? Well, if he likes to inspect her meat so much, surely he wouldn't mind joining it... One... four... six taps on her holographic interface, and the container that was attached to her liset suddenly landed right next to her, leaving some cracks in the ground.
