Mercenary Roleplay II

[Arista~]

Arista was starting to get fed up with the peanut butter jar. She pushed it off the shelf and watched with bored enthusiasm as it hit the floor with a thump. She watched as the lid bounced back into the pantry and the peanut butter jar went in the other direction. Since she had made sure to get the stickiest peanut butter the store carried, it didn't leave a trail as it rolled.

" Did anyone spike my drink? I'm seeing a talking pink koala." Cyborg asked.

" I see it too, ok you want to be a mercenary I take it, if so go talk to Fen or Elcy." Midknight replied.

[Vyt: Down, but Not Out]

Vyt wasn't the type of person to hold long-term grudges against anyone friendly. By the time his then-disturbed mind finally registered the appearance of Cyborg and Midknight, he felt like he needed some, or any, kind of company.

"Dum risked his life just to make Takehiko pay for his sins," Vyt sighed. "... But he's still on the loose. I've seen through Dum's life all the hardships he had to do, but he was willing to throw that away. All just to let Takehiko know that he's been doing the wrong things in his whole life."

Vyt began to stand up when the pink koala began to spoke. Of course, he was taken into surprise, knowing that the koala could actually talk. But then again, he had seen much more bizarre things happening to him. "... Tweezers, eh? A little youngster like you shouldn't be playing here," he warned her.

"... You might be inbetween trouble already."

[Cyborg]

( Sorry Vyt Shado hates to see his friends sad.)" Ya he was a good guy, even though he tried to kill all of us at the inn." Midknight stated, as he looked down at Shado who whimpered obviously feeling the aura of sadness. Shado walked over to Vyt and licked his face.

[Arista~]

Arista climbed down to the floor and shifted into her human form. She grabbed a spoon that she had set on the counter, sat on the floor and dug into the delicious and holy peanut butter.

[Lizzie]

Twizzlers heard this cat,apperently named Vyt,'s warning. "Twizzlers, not Tweezers!"she cried.

Then,she added,"Who was Dym??" Twizzlers was confused, very confused.

[Bacon]

Clint's stomach growled, so he walked into the kitchen, where he found Arista sitting on the floor eating peanut butter. He shook his head and sighed as he walked past her, pretending to be annoyed, although honestly, deep down her antics often, as now, amused him. He found this was the case with many of the mercs; that he was starting to enjoy their company more and more, especially Hades, which was ironic considering how they met.

Reaching into the pantry, Clint retrieved both an old box of snack crackers and the peanut butter lid. "Don't forget about this." Clint said, tossing the lid to Arista as he opened the box and started eating, leaning his back against a wall. He wasn’t really sure why he didn’t just walk out of the kitchen with the crackers, it wasn’t like there was any need to stay in the kitchen. Mentally he sighed, as he slowly realized he actually wanted to hang out with Arista.

[Arista~]

Arista stuck the spoon in her mouth and caught the lid. "Thanks." She mumbled as she screwed it back on. She pulled the spoon out of her mouth. "Was just about to go searching for that." She held up the jar for him. "Want some with your..... crackers?" She studied the box in his hand. "You would check the date on those before you eat those. I believe they are a bit stale."

[Vyt: Down, but Not Out]

It was then that Twizzlers started bombarding Vyt with questions regarding Dum. The half-feline would've exploded into annoyed anger right then had Shado and his passionate licking not stopped him from doing so. "There are some things in life that you ought not to know, Twizzlers," he sighed. "But if I can tell you one thing, Dum is a bad man gone upright."

Vyt then started to walk away from the tombstone, heading back towards the Mercs HQ. "We'll just have to live with his death," he uttered.

[Bacon]

"I'm allergic." Clint replied, shaking his head slightly as he took a bite of one cracker, "And I like them stale. These past few years I've grown to savor bitterness." Almost immediately he mentally kicked himself for saying something so deep, dark, and personal in front of Arista, and so he quickly changed the subject.

"Why is it people are only ever allergic to things that taste good, like peanuts? You never hear of anyone allergic to zuchinni or squash or avocados. It's always things like milk and peanut butter." He sighed, looking at the condiment-free cracker in his hand before biting into it. He almost said 'life just isn't fair', but caught himself before he did. He didn't mean to sound too depressing, especially to someone like Arista.

Clint paused for a second in thought. Why should I care what anyone thinks about me? They're not my friends, I don't need them.

[Arista~]

Arista giggled. "Well, if you like stale things, that's fine by me. There's enough up there and in that old refrigorater that are stale. The bread in the bread drawer is almost there."

She looked up at the man who towered above her as she sat on the floor. "Though no one is allergic to those things, there are quite a few people who stay away from them. Like me. I don't know if I'm allergic to those things cause I don't like them at all."

[Lizzie]

Twizzlers watched the feline-person leave. She felt bad about her question. Crying, Twizzlers slowly got up and ran.

Then, she couldnt see where she was going, and ran into.....

a tree!!

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!"Twizzlers ccried.

[Deleted]

Fenrix blinked and opened one eye. Someone had run into her tree. "Who's there?" She sat up and stretched, looking around, deciding her nap was over. She looked down and located the voice. "What are you doing? Are you alright?" The vampress swung her legs over the side and jumped to the ground, raising one thin eyebrow and crossing her arms over her chest. "That was not smart at all, why'd you run into the tree." Calmly she leaned against the tree, obviously in no hurry.

She had been in a hurry, having been at the Quarter Moon Fortress for the last couple of weeks, repairing things and establishing her rule over that provinence. Now she was on her way back to the mercenary compound to stay for a while. She had put a co-regent in her place so that she could go with the mercenaries, but still rule her lands.

[Vyt: Down, but Not Out]

Vyt entered the HQ with a rather peculiar expression on his face. His usual bubbly attitude was turned into silence, as he sighed and strolled across the kitchen.

The first thing the catboy saw was Arista, sitting down on the floor. Without any reason at all, his tail began to encircle the girl.

"I'm hungry," he said, reaching out for some loaves of bread just within arm reach. His tail never let go, however.

[Arista~]

Arista wrapped her hand around Vyt's tail and lightly pulled. "What's wrong, Vyt?" She asked, conserned.
