Cinders of the Future 2: Phoenix Ashes OoC

Jay: Reading your scene reminded me of an 'old Chinese curse' a friend of mine often brings up: May you live in interesting times.

iD: Yep, I think that was a record for the shortest period of time an AP has been in existance...On the plus side, thank you for the honor!

"Some bullets would remind them this was not always an okay thing to do without a permit."
I love it!

Blackbird: my love for you is at least as great as your own for me.

D'aww. Things are getting mushy in here.

Whosoever decided it was intelligent to place the Quote button next to the Edit button aught' be sterilized, for the good of humanity! It's like putting the lever to flush your space station toilet next to the airlock override switch!

This is so true. I can thankfully still count the number of times I accidentally (in a sleep-deprived state) edited someone else's post rather than quote. Oh the horrors of being Crew.

Halloo Jay~ 3nodding *waves*

As an off-topic note, I just finished playing Alice: Madness Returns. As someone who loved the original, I can say it's a great game, very atmospheric. It may not be on anyone's Game of the Year list, but it's definitely worth the time and money. mrgreen  

[Jay Acumora]

Hello everyone I'm the new person on the rollercoster of this rps destiny. Never know what is going to happen until it does. Well that's all for now.

Welcome to the club Jay! I sure hope you read the manual sweatdrop you will definitely need it to deal with the amount of awesomeness that everyone here can create.

I WILL BE POSTING TODAY IF IT IS THE LAST THING I DO!
I promise I promise

That said, I will get to it after I get this nightmare of a body shop dealt with. One would think that they would want business, but instead they have been ignoring my calls and refuse to go fix my car.

Note to Jikail: Technically, yes, there were seven rounds in the magazine and one in the chamber. Each mag comes with eight rounds in it, but obviously to fire you have to load the one into the chamber. Because bullets don't just get up and kill people on their own. Remember, bullets don't kill people. Paul kills people. And no one else.

[/dumb joke]

So yeah. I find Lily's reaction to Siber's announcement be curiously similar to some of the things I mentioned, if given with a different context and intent. And yes, Paul is not Joe, whatever anyone may have told you. I guess I didn't anticipate how strongly everyone would react to this. Not really viscerally, but I figured there would be some sense of acceptance, since, y'know, Siber's awesome. Not to say I'm disappointed, either; I could go either way. (Oh baby.) Still, it makes things interesting for him. I believe what Siber said to me was that he doesn't much like firearms. (Does that make me Siber's mortal enemy?) But he does like pokemon fights. So I guess what we're getting at here is "do have the pokemon fight, don't just shoot everything from half a mile away." Which I guess is largely addressed at the only man who I know has a scope, which is Paul. Remember, kids, scopes don't kill people. Paul kills people. And animals. And things. Even inanimate things.

Remember, kids... Paul kills people.

'Nuff said.

"Mommy! There's something in my closet!"
"Don't worry, that's just Paul, he's hunting boogiemen."
"oh..."

Brains do such odd things.  

[Arthuritis592]

"Mommy, why is Paul sitting outside of the maternity ward?"
"Oh, Tommy, he's just making sure that the newborns learn the lesson of survival of the fittest."
"MOMMY, WHY DOES HE HAVE A GUN?"
"Look away Tommy... Look away."

(O.o;; )  

[Jikial]

"Mom! Paul's in the closet again!"
Mom sighs, "I'll call the cops."  

[SirBayer]

And then there was no more police department.  

[iD bracerS]

Contrary to popular belief, North America was oddly spared from the Cataclysm.

Sadly, it was not spared from Paul.  

[lily564a]

Paul stood on the rubble of the station, one foot raised to sit on a mostly capsized police cruiser, one arm holding three SWAT assault rifles duct taped together so he could quickly switch between them, the other arm carrying the entire department's supply of donuts. The sheriff's badge pinned to his breast pocket.  

[Jikial]

In a secluded monastery somewhere in the Himalayans, a buddhist child rises from meditation to disturb his elder.

His message, "He is coming."  

[Arthuritis592]

Chuck Norris shivers in fear at the mention of Paul's name.
