Ricky swiped the beer from his new best friends and took a long swig. Perhaps it was the build up and excitement, but it was the best damn beer he had ever tasted. "No problemo," he said. That was the most of that Mexican language that he spoke.
The neck of the bottle in one hand, he moved over to Felix, obeying the commands for the trade. He wrapped the beer-wielding arm around the boy's neck and attempted to noogie him furiously with the other arm. "Sorry dude, but I promised 'em I'd do this till you started to sing like a canary on a hot Sunday."

"Joshua." He nodded, and shook Fritz's hand. Maybe this one wasn't so bad... He wasn't screaming about s**t or threaten to sue people in space like some of the spacecases. (Oh, dear. He'd just made a pun.) "I kind of wish I could punt some of them back to Earth." He muttered again. "Though, I don't think it's gonna be that easy. Im still kind of hoping this is a dream, but..." Yeah. Lucid dreams didn't usually last this long, didn't they ? He had no damn idea. He was studying to be an enginner, not some loony case !

Dannay raised her hand again and proclaimed “Dannay Albus, I was working on a paper, I thought I drank too much of those energy drinks cause I started to feel dizzy to, then like I was falling and suddenly we were on the way to Valhalla! Rainbow Bridge you know.” She waved her hand and then stopped to laugh quietly. “Love to see what ‘Daddy’ makes of –that- story…see you at St. Maggie’s after they put you through rehab if you expect us to be believed on this one. You just KNOW people are going to think we were drugged up in a warehouse somewhere.” A pause. “Which I suppose we COULD be… though if we are you’re probably going to get counter sued for assault” She added still chattering on wide eyed as the preppy-basket ball girl took a swing. “Just sayin.”

"God...." Holi groaned, though she was now debating if she didn't want to go up there and snatch the bottle from the boy. Cat. PFT. She'd have to be pretty plastered to mistake that thing for a cat, though being plastered might make this easier to swallow.
"Honestly I'm going to throw up on someone if someone mentions "Magic" again... I mean what next. Is someone going to ask us to clap for ******** Tinkerbell?"

"Gemini Alpha," she hissed, but it had no effect. Before she could berate him more, though, the beer was handed off to Ricky. "Just keep it to the legal ones, okay?" Making a frustrated noise in the back of her throat, she turned back to the group at large. The civilian calling herself Mary Read (Bela) was saying something about being at an event. Events generally being crowded, she felt it was a safe idea to tick that column under "Possibly Abducted By Negas".
Virgo would believe Snuzzles was a cat. She had once. Now she just smiled a little at her compatriot's quip at Aya's expense, and considered her answer. It seemed quite elementary. "Monsters," she said shortly. "Humanoid or not, we protect you from monsters."
Molly got a somewhat annoyed look. "I've said a few times now that I can't return you until I have someone responsible to leave the others with. I can only travel from here to Earth with one or two people at a time." Ugh, why didn't people listen when she spoke? It was because she was short, wasn't it. It so was. But Gemini Alpha's antics were drawing her attention again, and she hid a laugh behind her hand. He had a good point. There were no space courthouses, not that she knew of. Although if they had any kind of judicial system, it surely would have been under Prince Eon's jurisdiction…
"We're not kidding, unfortunately," she said to Lynn. "In this form we're a bit different, but at the base level we are human, just like you but a little more advanced." Why did that sound like a mutant pitch from X-men?
Dannay got a less irritated look. "It's not Valhalla. That's on Jupiter, I think. This is the Surrounding. I don't think there's any real mythological comparison that can be made."

Meandering down the rainbow road as a drunken totem pole, the Geminis were not the best representation of what the Zodiac Guard could and definitely did do, and certainly not what Virgo probably wanted to be representing them int his... odd... event. But no matter what they fearless captain was thinking, or what she had hoped for, they came none-the-less, singing at the top of their lungs in what was probably so completely and painfully off key that only the vacuum of space saved people's eardrums. And like all their ideas, (or at least the ones that came one one or both of them were drunk -- in this instance the latter,) it was their best one yet. Because it involved them being 'LIKE TWENTY FEET TALL.' So when Andeon suggested Mackenzie climb onto his shoulders, she did so with gusto, nearly kneeing him in the face before she settled atop of her perch, almost falling off as she tried to grab Snuzzles off the ground. Of course, being drunk off their asses (as they usually were,) certainly helped, but even had she been bone-dry... it was Andeon. How was she supposed to say no to that?
Answer: she couldn't.
They'd just rounded a particularly challenging crest in the road (see: the road hadn't moved, only their sense of balance,) and four versions of an irish drinking song neither of them could remember before they started into Tik-Tok, Mack (ever the enabler) making sure to tip more booze down Andeon's throat as they went. It remains to be seen whether that was the cause or it was just Andeon being fancy with his footwork, but it was around that time that suddenly the sparkly Nyan-cat road began to come up to meet them. And quickly. And before she knew it, Mackenzie found herself on a rather cushioned horizontal, her skirt flipped up over the back of her head. At which point everyone was likely thanking who ever made the senshi uniforms into leotards.
Lifting her head from her counterpart's shoulder, Gemini Beta lifted the edge of her skirt up off her eyes to grin up at Virgo as well.
"'Cause when I leave for the night I ain't comin back."
And then, a second later, in response to Andeon's 'piece of tail' quip, "Are you touchin my a**?"

“How else are we supposed to get any questions answered,” Roxy grumbled from Virgo’s response. Of course others seemed to be getting their input in just fine with nice indoor and calm voices, but Roxy wasn’t paying attention that well. Being the loudest voice in the room always worked for her - and hey, she did get kind of a response. (This mentality also seemed to be working with those Scottish looking people, who seemed to have space beer or something and some weird pet. Roxy kind of liked them for their loudness).
Clutching the blue plastic clamp in her arms, she again ventured a little further to the group that was surrounding the green clad senshi, not carrying if she was pushing others out of the way as she made her way past. Okay, Virgo wanted nice and no shouting, she was going to get nice and no shouting from Roxanne Selte. Putting on a nice smile and opened her mouth to address some more questions; in the spirit of well, Aya probably who seemed to be getting the only decent sounding questions in right now. Kind of.
It was then she passed a familiar face and heard a familiar voice, and an all too familiar phrase. Roxy turned, surprised. “Flannery?” Oh wait, “Wallace?” Two for the price of one? Really?

O. M. G. Seriously? That was not what Natalia meant by not enough action. Seriously? Taking a swing at the funny magical drunk guy? someone had anger issues. Or spoiled brat syndrome. Maybe a combination of both.
"Oh, real, mature there miss GonnaSue," Natalia rolled her eyes, not at all the crowning glory of maturity either.

Hawke made an 'O' face. Or she did. Until she saw it. The demon. Or maybe it was a bug infected with the taint? Either way. It wasn't like anything she'd seen before. But then again, she'd never seen this place before either and so far Dragon Logic, was getting more and more convoluted. "Uh.." She eyed Snuzzles before asking one of the two senshi "....It's not a mean... cat is it?" She was leery of it. It was a bug thing. It wasn't something she'd ever seen in any gamer wiki. "Has all it's shots?" Truthfully, the thing kind of freaked her out. It looked like it was some kind of summon but it was the duality 's keeper? God this was- She gave Snuzzles a leery look. 'I am watching you' . Then Space Bard said something that had Hawke giggling. "Oh dude. Don't you know about space court? For people in space? The sun is the judge, and there are even space cops." She looked at Gilbert. Then laughed.

Soldiers of justice and peace. Felix’s first thought to the answer was ‘police,’ but senshi were clearly not law enforcement. He warily watched Virgo, then directed his gaze at the Gemini twins’. Yes, definitely not law enforcement.
“Excuse me?” He tried not to gawk as Gemini Alpha handed his beer to Ricky and instructed him to noogie Felix. “You’ve got to be kidding me—“ Felix watched as Ricky headed toward him and he immediately stopped speaking. “—You’re not.” Unfortunately for Felix, Ricky managed to wrap an arm around his neck and began to furiously rub his head with the other. Looking quite miffed, he attempted to pull Ricky’s arm away from his neck. “Kindly stop or I will kick you in the balls.”

Regina had let herself be dragged along for the time being, still warring over some mental debate that she couldn't quite get over... When the *magical girl* had arrived her eyes had gone a bit wider, lips parting in an 'o' of surprise and, to the possible shock of her companions, she had remained silent.
That silence had continued save for, perhaps, the sound of gears whirring in her head, until they'd been asked what the last thing they could remember was. "I was crossing the street. Right before the light turned... We didn't die did we? I mean, we're all still alive, right?" Her question had been directed towards Virgo, who she wouldn't believe wasn't an alien until she had real proof (words didn't count alone. any alien could say they weren't an alien...), but the arrival of the Geminis caught her attention again.
Joce and Amy had mentioned someone hot, but she hadn't paid much attention to whoever that was. This one? Yes. Very much yes. We wants the Red Head. But wait... What the hell was that on top of the totem pole? "My god, it is an alien..." She murmured, so very softly this time, one hand hesitantly coming up to push her glasses back up onto her face, eyes torn somewhere between keeping an eye on Snuzzles and trying, very sheepishly, not to stare at the Male Gemini.

Members of the Zodiac Guard had arrived as each civilian tried to make sense of this strange new existence. The road beneath their collective feet was just as bright and glowing as it had ever been, and the blackness of the star-dotted sky was just as constant.
And then, suddenly, it wasn't.
In the distance, something crossed through the air. It was too far off to see anything clearly. The only sign of anything being amiss at all was the sudden blotting out of a few stars. They reappeared one moment later, like the flame of a candle while someone waved a hand over its glow.
It could have easily been missed by anyone preoccupied, or easily explained away as a passing meteor. But something had moved in the deep space past the Surrounding's glow. Then the sound came again. Louder.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and then eight times -- eight measures, almost, of that strange music. The pleasantness of it had disappeared now. It was haunting, deadly, skin-chilling.
But where was it coming from?

She had been prefectly happy to ignore the arrival of some drunk idiot, or drunk sounding idiot, until Regina commented on him. Turning to look she ended up with her own mouth hanging open as she stared at the Gemini's head adornment.
"... okay. I take it back ... that is an alien." They weren't suppose to exist either yet there was something creepy sitting ontop of the drunk's head. "Keep it away from me please. I've seen that movie and i dont want to get impregnated by some face sucking thing from god knows where. I like being alive."
She tried to tug Regina away from the man and his face-sucker and get herself between them a bit. Sure she didn't want to die but she couldn't just let the idiot girl die either.
In her attempt to move she completely missed the stars vanishing but the sound didn't escape her. ".... okay. There were more beats that time. What the hell is going on!" she stamped one foot as her fingers clenched into fists.

Oh ok. Valhala was on JUPITER. And they could only teleport a couple people at a time...like on Star Trek... it was all so clear now.
Holi pressed a hand to her temple with a groan, trying to jam one more piece of complete nonsense into the equation. She really was getting a headache at this point, and the Basketball Bimbo wasn't helping... though it was leading to some slightly violent fantasies about what would happen if those strange barriers weren't on the bridge.
"Oh sure, teleporting. WHY NOT. We have magical space beer and deep sea crustaceans as house pets... "
And the pseudo Valkarie took a swing at the drunk. Was their no end to the classiness?
"And what IS that sound??" She demanded, raising her voice slightly.

The blotting of a few stars here and ther might have been missed, but there was no way that sound could be. The suddenness of if startled Natalia, who jumped a good foot in the air, then crouched down, covering her ears.
What was that? Oh god it was so close! So close, so loud, and it lasted for so long! It wasn't...it wasn't nice at all! It was utterly horrifying is what it was!
For the first time Natalia's pale blue eyes held true trouble in them. This dream...was beginning to become a nightmare...
