Tiernan Forbes: She shakes her head. "You just do
not get it." She looks back out of the window. "I was with Patrick." she
stresses his name. "For ten years, The only man I have ever loved and who ever
loved me. That other part of him, the Demon. Did not come into the picture until
later on. Besides I do not love the demon that was inside of Patrick. I loved
Patrick."
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He shrugs.* Well, sorry
to hear that. I guess it is a subject best left alone then?
Tiernan Forbes: She has been twisting the gold
wedding band on her left hand finger around and around as she has spoken. "Yes,
perhaps it should be." And yes from the sounds of it, she also made contact with
the demon as well.
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He nods stepping around
the counter and walking to a seat with a good view out the window.* Alright
then.
Tiernan Forbes: She falls silent once more, and just
looks out the window, still turning the wedding band around and around.
Max Zeric: *The sound of a new set of
footsteps can be heard, moving up the stairs towards the lounge. And eventually,
slowly and methodically, Max appears in the entrance, gazing about.*
Stanley P Kolpeck: *His eyes silently take
in the view. A few soft sips before pulling out a cigarette and lighting it.*
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He turns his head and
looks over to Max, oddly passive, with a short nod before looking back out the
window.*
Tiernan Forbes: She doesn't look over to the
newcomer, hell she doesn't even chastise Stan for smoking. She just barely seems
to be....there.
Max Zeric: *He looks at stan with a
curious look, inparticularly to the "new" him and then continues to looks
around, his gaze coming to rest upon Tiernan, which...of all things, gets a very
surprised look. And he begins to advance towards her*
Tiernan Forbes: She stops twirling the wedding ring
around her left hand finger when Max advances towards her. But she doesn't look
up, or make any other reactions.
Stanley P Kolpeck: *Stan takes a drag before
a sip which he exhales through his nose into.*
Max Zeric: *He stops a few paces off and
looks her over, trying to make sure its her.* "....Tiernan?"
Stanley P Kolpeck: (into the glass*)
Tiernan Forbes: Once more, her responce time takes
her a while. But she slowly looks up at Max, "Yes?"
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He looks up to Max with
an eyebrow up, but still passively stotic before glancing to Tiernan and back.
The brow drops and he look out the window again.*
Max Zeric: *He blinks still rather amazed
that shes there.* "Ummm im sorry, but we've met before...even if you might not
think so." *He says with a smile.* "My names max." *He says extending a hand to
her.*
Tiernan Forbes: She narrows her eyes and she looks
at him, staring almost boring a hole into him with her gaze. "Max.....You are
mistake--" she stops and looks to Stan. "You all do this. Every last one of you,
and you expect the rest of us to just keep up and go along with it as if
everything was fine." She is looking in between ,ax and Stan as she speaks. She
does not take Max's hand.
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He looks over french
inhaling slowly before shrugging.* What, dying?
Stanley P Kolpeck: *Voice hollow and
emotionless.*
Max Zeric: *He takes it all in stride,
putting his hand down and looking over at Stan.* "Not...having the best
experience with us are you? It doesnt surprise me."
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He looks up to Max with
a slightly raised brow.* (Roll for empathy coming.)
Stanley P Kolpeck:
d10: max: 9,5,4,
Tiernan Forbes: "Body swapping, is more like it."
Oh, there went the passive expressionless face, as anger starts to creep in
there. "So who are you?" she says to Max, in a demanding voice.
Max Zeric:
d10: Manip+Perf: 2,6,7,6,7,8,
Max Zeric: *He looks to her, trying to
figure out her angle, and her problem, but simply answers her.* "You'd remember
me as Casey."
POST LOST
Max Zeric: *He raises a brow at that.*
"Knew what exactly?"
Tiernan Forbes: ((And uh, I dunno if Blind wants us
to go to Init? Cause Tiernan is going to attempt to hit Max.))
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He shifts slightly in
his seat to get them both in view crossing one leg, still passive to the whole
thing. Another drag and a sip as he watches.*
Tiernan Forbes: She lunges to hit Max.
Blind: ((depends, is max,
or stan, going to fight, if not then not, if so then roll init everyone.))
Max Zeric: ((He will be defending himself
so ill do it at least))
Max Zeric:
d10: Init: 5,
Max Zeric: ((10))
Tiernan Forbes:
d10: Init plus five: 8,
Tiernan Forbes: ((13...YAY the first time I got a
high init *S*))
Max Zeric: *As Tiernan goes to lunge at
him Max will take several steps back avoiding any incoming attack*
Max Zeric:
d10: Dex+Dodge: 2,7,5,5,2,
Tiernan Forbes:
d10: Dex+Brawl (WP): 4,1,6,8,
Tiernan Forbes:
d10: Damage: 2,10,4,
Blind: ((kill the clones))
Max Zeric:
d10: Soak: 3,7,9,
William Halloran:
d10: Per+Alert: 2,7,2,10,5,4,2,
Tiernan Forbes:
d10: Correct Damage: 3,9,
William Halloran:
d10: Init plus five: 10,
Blind: Recap- Tiernan
swings at max who scoots back, the fist does catch him but it only glances off
far to the right of it's origional mark as he moves back away towards the hall.
William downstairs hears the shouting more than he does the fight itself. and
stan sits quietly in his chair watching.
Blind: New turn, order
decleration Max, Tiernan, William
William Halloran: He frowns, and turns to
make his way quickly up the stairs. Ain't no one supposed to be fightin' in
Sanctuary...and arguin' could lead to that. He's looked in better shape before,
but he still certainly cuts an imposing figure.
Stanley P Kolpeck: *His hand comes up, index
finger pointing out to the two.* Now Tears, this is a place of non-violence. We
can't be all punching people. *Said with the same lack luster voice as before.*
Max Zeric: *Max's face is more curious
then anything else at the woman agression* "What is the matter?" *He asks as he
continues to defend himself.*
William Halloran: ((Whoops, jumped the gun.
*L*))
Max Zeric:
d10: Dex+Dodge: 9,9,10,6,4,
Tiernan Forbes: "You KNEW about Jo and Reno. You
KNEW about them because of Sung, and you did nothing!" she fairly screams that
at Max, she sounds as if she is beyond or might be beyond listening at this
point. Or caring. She will attempt to hit Max again.
Tiernan Forbes:
d10: Dex+Brawl: 2,10,8,4,
William Halloran:
d10: Dex+Ath (If Needed): 9,4,9,3,10,5,
Blind: Recap- Max is
pressed back further moving just out of reach this time, and only a foot or two
from the corridor now. William storming up the stairs with all haste, reaching
the top though most of the scene is obscured as max's back blocks the detail,
still william's height gives him enough of an angle to get a general estimate of
what's going on, being able to see over into the room.
Order same again.
Stanley P Kolpeck: *A raised eye brow to Max
at that, followed by a small swig.*
Max Zeric: "She asked me not to discuss
any of it with anyone else, i held that confidence as she requested." *He states
matter of factly, this time he will try to catch her fist if she swings again*
Max Zeric:
d10: Dex+Brawl: 4,6,7,5,4,
Tiernan Forbes: Maybe it is all of the red hair,
that lends to her tempered outburst now, But she is really angry her face even
red. "Like she was RIGHT in that? SHE is do damn neieve that she would trust
anyone, she TOLD ME about them. AND NOW MY HUSBAND IS DEAD!!" oh not going to
hit him but she is going to kick him.
Tiernan Forbes:
d10: Dex+Brawl (WP): 8,7,7,9,
Stanley P Kolpeck: *Stan actually stands ip walking
toward the bar like nothing is happening.*
William Halloran: He moves forward quickly,
reaching out to grab both Tiernan and Patrick, holding them away from each other
with a huge hand each with glares to both. ((Split Strength+Brawl rolls to Hold
them))
William Halloran:
d10: Strength+Brawl (Trn): 2,8,4,1,10,3,
William Halloran:
d10: Strength+Brawl (Max): 5,9,7,3,1,
Blind: ((I pressume that's
max rather than patrick ;) ))
William Halloran: ((Max, Patrick. Whichever
one of Dagon's PC's that Snow's PC's is in combat with at the moment. *G*))
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He shakes his head talking to
himself.* Never have understood people, or what they might want. *A questioning
look as he walks away from the three.*
Stanley P Kolpeck:
d10: talking to self: 10,10,1,9,5,4,8,
Tiernan Forbes:
d10: Damage: 1,4,1,6,9,
Max Zeric:
d10: Soak: 2,1,9,
William Halloran: ((*raises hand*
Umm...rolling to talk to yourself? Is that like...so as not to be heard?))
Stanley P Kolpeck: (*Shakes head.* To make
it sound like he is...Man+performance+2)
Blind: ((LOll, indeed))
William, grabs each, tiernan still manages to kick across as the two are pushed
away from each other but the backwards motion of both as the giant holds them at
arm's length stops it actualy doing any damage. Stan stands and talks to himself
(anyone who's paying attention to stan may roll perception subterfuge and range
you will please state the roll you are using, not that, atribute + ability
please, thank you)
Max Zeric: *Max looks up to William and
nods to him* "This isnt necessary William, she seems to believe i am at fault..i
would rather she be able to speak her mind." *He will however prepare to avoid
Tiernan incase she attacks again*
Max Zeric:
d10: Dex+Dodge: 3,6,7,8,2,
Tiernan Forbes: She is breathing hard as she glares
at Max. "I would appreciate it if you would get your hand off of me." she says
to William. "No one is allowed to touch me but my husband." she continues to
glare at Max. "Because I am about to leave. Now that I know how competent this
~Court~ is." She won't attack anymore, but she will attempt to shrug off
Williams hand.
William Halloran: ((Not paying attention to
Stan at the moment. :) ))
Tiernan Forbes:
d10: Strength+Brawl: 2,9,3,5,
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He shakes his head.*
Man, hold up. *Eyes over to Tiernan.* If you're leaving I'm going with you.
William Halloran: "Bullshit. Ain't no
fightin' here, no matter what. Don't care who or when. Speak 'er mind all she
wants...ya don't speak with yer fuckin' fists." He glares at the both of them,
towering down. He does release Teirnan, but tosses in the scary-ass look to keep
her from attacking again.
William Halloran:
d10: Cha+Intimidation: 6,7,2,7,7,3,2,6,
William Halloran: ((Oh...that's toward both
of them, for the record, if allowed, to prevent either from moving on the
other.))
Max Zeric:
d10: Willpower: 4,5,9,7,7,
Blind: ((yep I'll allow
intimidation to extend all round))
Tiernan Forbes:
d10: Wp +one auto: 2,6,4,3,
Max Zeric: *Max wasnt really going to
be moving anywhere, even before Williams speech*
Blind: Recap: William
releases his grip, but makes sure no one's going to start anything more, tiernan
makes to leave as max tries to deffend her and is put in his place. ((Combat is
ressolved, continue as normal))
Tiernan Forbes: She cannot even look at William, as
she seems to shrink within herself, head bowing down, intimidated oh hell yes.
"I was not aware of that." said meekly and with appology to it, all of the fight
has left her.
Max Zeric: *Max steps asside.* "If you
wish to leave Tiernan...that is your choice."
Stanley P Kolpeck: *Stan looks over and
shakes his head as passive as before. Waiting, to see if she makes to leave.*
William Halloran: He looks between the two,
frowning, and keeps his stance between them. His arms fold over his chest,
waiting.
Tiernan Forbes: "Good bye Stan.....Sir." the Sir
said to William since she does not know his name. And she will edge her way out
of the lounge to the room she was using. Saying back to Stan. "You cannot come
with me.....not if you are going to do what you have promised. Good luck."
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He shakes his head and
follows anyways.* Well, I told you got a contract on this. *Voice hollow as he
walks by the two men a nod to both as he goes.*
William Halloran: He looks over at Stanley,
the brow over his badly bloodshot eye rising him a little as he watches him.
Max Zeric: *Max simply watches them both,
as neutral as possible and looks to William.* "Thank you for that." *He says
quickly before moving back into the lounge. Still somewhat scared of the man for
the moment*
William Halloran:
d10: Per+Emp (STan): 9,5,1,3,2,8,
Stanley P Kolpeck:
d10: man+sub+two: 3,2,5,2,7,6,5,8,
William Halloran: He grunts a little to
Max. "Welcome."
Stanley P Kolpeck -> William Halloran:
(So you know... He is going for passive, almost coldly so.)
Tiernan Forbes: She walks to the room she is using
and slips on her shoes, grabbing her jacket to put on, she shakes her head. "I
hope you have enough for plane fare." she said quietly. a waver in her voice, as
she shakes her head once more, then moves to pick up the two bags, one a plastic
shopping bag, that are on the floor, a hand made looking clock radio sits on the
top of the clothes in the plastic shopping back and it can be seen.
Max Zeric: *Max simply moves to a chair
and sits, rubbing his temples for a moment*
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He shrugs.* Well, I can
keep you company till the plane leaves. *Looking down to his nails which he
brushes off idolly on his coat.*
William Halloran: "So what th' fuck was 'at
all about, anyway?" He looks at Max.
Max Zeric: *He looks over to William
considering him for a moment before he responds* "She seems to beleive that i am
partially responsible for the death of her husband."
William Halloran: "Oh." He looks back to
the room, then back to Max. "Were ya?"
Tiernan Forbes: She shakes her head before
shrugging. "I do not care......I don't know....just.....leave me alone." She
keeps her head bowed and will try to move past him through the door.
Max Zeric: *He contemplates that.*
"Perhaps....by way of inaction. But i did what was right at the time."
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He steps out of her way
following her down the stair shaking his head again.* The trouble your getting
me into. *He says with the same voice.*
William Halloran: He shrugs. "Huh.
Okay." He turns to watch Tiernan head out, and Stan behind her.
Tiernan Forbes: She stops and turns to look at Stan.
"Go talk to that man......casey or Max or whomever. He knows about Reno and Jo
and the girl they are trying to go after, Sung. He is good friends with her. He
might know more than I do about them."
Max Zeric: *He sighs and stands.* "I dont
have time for this....i have more pressing things to deal with." *He says as he
moves towards the fire escape exit, not interested in crossing path with Tiernan
once again*
William Halloran: He looks over at Max as
he goes to the fire escape. "Brigitte might be contactin' ya about this. Just so
ya know."
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He shakes his head.*
Well, that's fine, but I am going to see you to the airport as I doubt he will
speak to me anyways. *Pulls out a cig and lights it.* Besides, I have other
things pressing me tonight.
Max Zeric: *Max looks back to William, his
hand on the hand rail of the fire escape.* "Very well, i will wait for her to
contact me. Though i doubt it will be of any real consequence, no harm...no foul
right?" *He says with a weak smile, before beginning his decent*
Tiernan Forbes: "Fine, then do what you need to do.
Take care of your more pressing matters." another shake of her head and she
pushed past Stan back to the room. Indecisive? yes she is. "I just want to be
left alone."
Stanley P Kolpeck: *He shrugs brow raised.*
Whatever. *Turning to walk out of the front door.*
William Halloran: "Yeah, maybe." He shrugs.
"We'll see."
Max Zeric: *And with that Max dissapears
into the back alley.* ((Thank ya for the...explosive scene:P))
Tiernan Forbes: She moves into the bedroom once
more and quietly shuts the door. ((*Hugs* you arer welcome. Sometimes, things
just do not work out the way you think they might.*L*))
Stanley P Kolpeck: (*Shakes head.* Just
wow... Good scene all...)
William Halloran: ((Thanks, guys. *S*))
