[Date: August 20, 2020.  Time: 1700 GMT.]
 [Location: SAB training room.  There's a wide selection of tools for normal 
training, including opponent droids (for melee or unarmed), a shooting gallery, 
and normal gym facilities.]
 [They do have one rather unusual facility as well, as set of booths, fairly 
comfortable places to sit, with nothing supernatural about them.]
[The supernatural bit is handled by an apparent ghost named William, a powerful 
telepath, who can construct a mental holodeck for willing parties.]
[Might be able to do it for unwilling parties to, but that hasn't been 
established. ;P]
* Red is in the sitting area with her bag of m&ms and bucket of soda, as well as 
a book.
[And start.  Or jump the gun, like Red did. ;P]
* Red has her rifle out, as well, and has designated one of the target drones as 
being in her use, but she hasn't shot it yet.
<Red> ( Sorry, chief. ^_^ )
<Grysar> (We'll say Saldin shows up after helping mentally heal the commando for 
a bit.  He's got a few hours free, cause the guy needs some low activity 
physical healing time as well.)
<Grysar> (Up to you blokes to convince him the reason his steps lead him here 
was to engage in PvP carnage. :P)
<Saldin> (Which reminds me.)
<Saldin> 1d20
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Saldin (1d20) and gets 1.
<Saldin> (... You are an ass, dicebot.)
<Red> ( Ouch. Critical faiiilure. )
* Tim is a few  seats down from Red, and  remembered to bring some popcorn this 
time.
* Marguerite is over by one of the target drones, emptying clip after clip out 
of her DE into its mechanical guts. Several drones may already lie in ruins. Her 
cheek is bandaged and you can see stitches beneath it, and she is really, really 
focused. Her satchel sits on a table.
* Red laughs at a passage in her book, then has another m&m.
* <sets mode: +vvvvv Marguerite Red Saldin Tim Yvonne
* Yvonne comes in in her usual red leather get up. Her jacket is unzipped, but 
this time it looks like she's at least wearing a halter.
* Saldin walks in the room, again. This is at least the third time he's walked 
out, only to end up in the room again. Today, he looks just like male him in the 
loose chinese clothing. Except that his arms are green tentacles.
* Red waves to Saldin as he enters.
* Tim waves at Yvonne as she walks in...and then blinks at Saldin.
<Saldin> (For full description, go look at the page.)
* Saldin ... waves back at Red. "Good day. Again. It seems I cannot escape 
today."
* Marguerite finishes off a clip, watches the target drone collapse in a heap, 
twirls the DE, and holsters it. She sidles over to her satchel, which is near 
Red, and eyes Saldin on the way.
* Yvonne waves "Hi, everybody!"
* Red looks up at the cieling a bit, frowns, and marks her place in the book. In 
a flash, the book's on the table, the rifle's in her hand, there's a click as 
she pulls the trigger, and a training round hits the mobile target she'd 
designated earlier.
* Saldin smiles at Maggie, then turns to Yvonne and 'waves' again. "Hello. I 
don't believe I have met you before."
* Marguerite eyes. "Nice."
<Grysar> (/me watches Kenshin.  Pirate ships attacking a train.  And it's 
plausible.  Wow, that's so cool. :P)
<Red> Why, thank you. o/`
* Tim holds the bowl up, "Hey Yvonne, Want some -nice shot- Popcorn?"
<Yvonne> Nope! Hey, you got tentacles for arms. Cool!
* Yvonne nods to Tim. "Sure!"
* Saldin nods, and replies, "I do today, yes." His white eyes look at Yvonne 
creepily. Then again, do white eyes ever not be creepy?
* Yvonne is, for record, a gorgeous albino woman with short pink-ish white hair, 
blue-on-black eyes and small fangs. Full description takes too long to type x.x
* Tim stands up and teleports to over where Yvonne and Saldin are standing and 
holds out the bowl of popcorn.
* Yvonne grabs popcorn. "So, what's it like?"
* Red quirks a grin at the *other* redhaired gunbunny. "You're wasting a fortune 
in drones, you know."
<Marguerite> Yeah, well, they should plate 'em better. Not like I've got much 
for options, anyhow, unless you're allowed to run around shooting staff.
<Saldin> 2d8-2
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Saldin (2d8-2) and gets 12.
<Red> Well, there is that psychic virtual training room, or whatever it's called. 
<Saldin> (.... You HATE me today, Dicebot. c.c;)
<Marguerite> The what the shit, now?
<Diceroshi> ( I love you and want you to be happy. )
<Red> Kurt had a battle there with a few of the girls the other night. Was fun 
to watch, although I only come in on the tail end. 
* Saldin looks at Yvonne. "What is it like having tentacles for arms?" He pauses 
for a second, then says cautiously. "It makes it hard to grab things."
<Yvonne> Ooooh.
<Marguerite> Huh. Virtual, you  say?
* Saldin doesn't reach for popcorn.
<Yvonne> ( Virtual origami monsters. )
<Red> Indeed I do. Your weapon isn't real, your opponent isn't either, but it's 
just as good as the real thing apparently. 
* Tim looks at Saldin, "You'd think it make it easier, shows what I know."
<Marguerite> Worth a shot. Where is this fabulous fuckin' device?
* Red nods. "Over yonder."
* Saldin looks at Tim, and says very simply. "That isn't the first time someone 
has said that today. I think it has something to do with bad television."
* Marguerite looks where Red nods!
* Tim shrugs, "well, if you've got nothing better to do than wander in and out 
of her it looks like the two of them are going to face off."
<Yvonne> Cool!
<Red> ( It does? )
<Marguerite> (Does it?)
<Tim> (They're talking about the virtual training room, and the only thing that 
happens in there as far as Tim knows is people fighting eachothe soo...)
<Tim> (eachother)
<Red> I probably need to go in and practice against hordes of monsters or 
something sometime. I'm honestly not much for that, I'd think. 
* Saldin looks at Tim in confusion. "Red and Mad Dog, fighting? That does not 
strike me as safe."
<Grysar> (And it can do virtual monsters.  I'd even let a player pseudo GM it, 
just come up with ACVs/DCVs and maybe a power or two on the fly)
<Grysar> (/me goes to work on the backgrgound for is XP character.  If I don't 
notice questions in /msg, have someone IM me)
* Marguerite grins. "I'd duel you. I just need a scrub or two to warm up on, 
first." <<She looks over at the others.>>
<Tim> Nah, they've got this special thing in there where you can't get hurt. 
Kurt got cut in half the other day, and set the girl he was fighting 
against ...what was her name Kaily? got set on fire and they were both fine 
afterwords.
<Yvonne> Kurt? Was he cute?
<Tim> (- got set)
* Red looks over at the others. "Saldin probably wouldn't be up for it. No idea 
about Tim. Yvonne might do it if you could convince her it was a social 
activity."
* Tim blinks at Yvonne, "...Sorry, I don't pay much attention to how other guys 
look."
<Marguerite> Let's find out.
<Yvonne> Oh.
<Yvonne> ... Was the girl cute?
* Saldin 's head shifts slightly to look at Yvonne, then says, "Interesting idea, 
although I am not sure how realistic such a thing could be."
* Tim grins at Yvonne, "Yes."
* Yvonne grins. "Cool!"
* Marguerite pulls Bubba out of the satchel, walks over, and proceeds to "rest" 
it on the ground, making it clang loudly against the floor. "Okay. Any of you up 
for a fight?"
* Red shrugs and stands.
<Yvonne> Hmmm...?
<Yvonne> A contest? What are the rules?
* Tim looks over at Maggy, "As long as it's in there and not out here, What have 
I got to lose but my pride?"
<Marguerite> Uh.... the rules are "If you die, you lose." 
* Yvonne taps her chin. "And the prize?"
* Red shakes her head, smiling ironically.
<Grysar> (And here I thought it was 'S/he who dies with the most toys, wins'  :P)
* Saldin turns to Maggie, and eyes her monstrosity of a gun, then looks at her 
directly. "I do not see why you are asking me. I cannot even draw a bow today. A 
contest of ranged attacks would be unfair."
<Marguerite> Aw, I wouldn't fight you, Whitey. 
* Red winces slightly.
<Marguerite> And jesus, I dunno. Bragging rights, I guess.
* Saldin loosk confused. "... Whitey? Oh, my eyes. What a strange thing to name 
someone for."
* Marguerite looks to Tim. "You in, for real?"
<Yvonne> How about loser as to take off her shirt?
* Marguerite looks Yvonne up and down. "Looks like you get a little too much 
practice at that as it is."
* Yvonne snickers.
* Tim blinks at Yvonne and then grins at Maggy, " Like I said, what have I got  
to loose?"
<Marguerite> Great.
<Marguerite> (How does one set this up?_
<Yvonne> ( No idea. @_@ )
<Saldin> (I think Maggie was going for Tim. Strip Combat doesn't seem to be her 
game.)
<Tim> (last time we just followed Kurt in.)
<Yvonne> ( ;_; )
<Red> ( We go in there. Last time there was an arena with croud stands high 
above. )
* Marguerite walks in, then!
<Red> The feller what runs it's psychic. He'll know what we're there for. 
* Tim takes his bowl of popcon and follows the girls in.
<Saldin> 2d8-2
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Saldin (2d8-2) and gets 11.
* Red claims her rifle and walks on in.
<NinjaDebugger> ( A nice game of strip Halo? Every time you're fragged, you come 
back less a bit of clothing? :P )
<Red> ( *snicker* )
* Red has a seat in the stands. ^_^
* Yvonne follows. "I think you guys should do it anyhow."
* Saldin closes his eyes for a second, frowns, then opens his eyes and walks 
over to the 'stands'. "Who, exactly, are you talking too, miss...?"
* Yvonne spreads her arms wide. "Doesn't matter!" ^_^
* Marguerite warms up Bubba, standing in the presumed arena. She grins at Tim.
* Tim grins back.
<Red> Aww, now now, Yvonne. Yer just want us all ter strip for yeh.
<Yvonne> Welllllll.... yeah.
<Marguerite> (Do we roll init and everything?)
* Yvonne smiles. "It's nice that someone understands."
<Tim> (yeah)
<Red> ( Well, yeah. )
<Grysar> (Whoever is involved, yeah)
* Saldin glances between Red and Yvonne. "That's an odd desire. What purpose 
would that serve without reason?"
* Tim ignores the voice of reason, he's a stick in the mud.
* Marguerite cracks her neck and slips on a pair of fingerless gloves. "You sure 
about this, Tim? Still can back down, y'know."
* Red pats Saldin on the shoulder. "I'll explain it when yer older."
* Yvonne looks up at Saladin. "Well... Everyone would be naked."
<Tim> Nah, if I get blown up repteatedly it just means I need more practice.
* Saldin 's shoulder is part tentacle, Red. Saldin looks at Yvonne. "Yes, that 
would be true. And?"
* Marguerite nods smartly, then drops to a crouch and runs!
<Marguerite> d8+14
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (d8+14) and gets 19.
<Tim> (Isn't it 2d8 for init? or have I gotten confused again?)
<Yvonne> And that'd be it.
<Saldin> (Book is 2d8. I think we've been using 1d8. ^^;)
<Marguerite> (I may be the confused one.)
* William, the ghost running it, briefly manifests himself next to Yvonne and 
Saldin.  He's grinning.  "Should anyone ever listen to dear Yvonne, and word get 
out, please be sure to specify that this wasn't my idea."  He then fades out to 
manage combat.
<Tim> (right)
<Grysar> (It's 2d8 when I've been paying attention. :P)
* Red shrugs and tells it to Saldin like it is, or at least seems to be. "And 
naked people excite her. Sexually. A lot. She's like that."
* Yvonne smiles. "Okay, Mr.!"
* Red grins. "Sure thing, Will!"
<Marguerite> 2d8+14
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8+14) and gets 25.
<Tim> 2d8+8
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8+8) and gets 23.
<Marguerite> (there, then.)
<Tim> (closer than I thought it would be :P)
* Saldin nods once as Red explains. "Aha. How strange. I've always been of the 
opinion that emotions and sexual activities excite people sexually."
<Yvonne> We could do sexual activities afterwards, too!
* Marguerite drops to one knee from her run, and fires off a bolt of plasma.
<Red> Oh, I'm not saying they-- and then there's that. 
<Marguerite> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8-6) and gets 1.
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets 5.
* Saldin frowns, and closes his eyes. "Somehow, that seems a callous attitude... 
Yvonne, is it?"
<Yvonne> Uh huh!
<Yvonne> That's me!
* Tim isn't anywhere near where the plasma bolt was fired, and he munches on 
some of his popcorn.
<Saldin> 2d8-2
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Saldin (2d8-2) and gets 14, a CRITICAL 
FAILURE!!! "Maybe you should consider sacrificing some barnyard animals?"
<Marguerite> (Was that your turn, Tim?)
* Red whispers to Saldin. "I think dear Yvonne has some kind of addiction, see. 
She likes sex the way a drunk likes alcohol. That is, she likes as much of it as 
she can get."
<Tim> (Yeah)
<Marguerite> Tricky little teleporter... you're gonna be too slow one of these 
times...
<Saldin> (I am failing, and _critfailing_, Sixth Sense rolls.)
* Marguerite squeezes off another bolt.
<Saldin> (There is something truly ironic about that.)
<Marguerite> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8-6) and gets 4.
<Tim> (Dicy doesn't like you much)
<Yvonne> ( Your Zen direction tells you you must go to Mars. :P )
<NinjaDebugger> ( I had the same problem when I did this, Saldin. )
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets 7.
<Red> And... come to think of it, why am I whispering? She prolly wouldn't mind. 
She's a nice enough girl, after all. 
* Tim is once again not where he should have been, he holds up the bowl of 
popcorn and teleports it into the stands.
* Marguerite tries again!
<Marguerite> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8-6) and gets 8.
* Red offers Yvonne some m&ms. :9
* Tim grins and snaps his fingers.
* Yvonne takes some m&ms :9
<Tim> 2d8-8
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-8) and gets -2.
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets 2.
<Tim> (...er wait....What level of SA is bubba if any?)
* Saldin turns to Red, and looks slightly distressed. "That is a very incomplete 
way of looking at things, Red."
<Marguerite> (Bubba's an IoP. Lvl 3.)
<Red> Which part?
<Tim> 2d8
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8) and gets 12.
<Tim> (Argh, this is the first time trying this and I've gotten myself confused 
@_@)
<Tim> 2d8-2
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-2) and gets 9.
<Tim> (DR)
<Tim> 2d8-2
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-2) and gets 8.
* Yvonne watches the fight and chews m&ms.
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets 5.
<Tim> (There we go)
<Tim> [Maggies plasma bolt vanishses about half way to it's target and reappears 
behind her!)
* Saldin shakes his head, then gestures out towards the fighters with a tentacle. 
"It does not truly matter. I will simply have to remember to restrain myself."
Session Time: Sun Mar 21 00:00:00 2004
<Tim> (eat reflect!)
<Marguerite> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8-3) and gets 11.
<Marguerite> (Oh man, DR.)
<Marguerite> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8-3) and gets 10.
<NinjaDebugger> ( ... am I the only one with no DR? )
<Marguerite> (... fuck you too, Dicey.)
<Saldin> (I don't have any!)
* Red shrugs. "Well, I'm curious at any rate. I'm interested in hearing your 
take on it. If you want, tho, I can ask you later and not bother you now."
<Tim> (Probibly, and concidering that you're the one who MADE dicey I'd figure 
you to know better than that :P)
<NinjaDebugger> ( I think I'll go for Infernal Relationship instead. So I can 
force other people to reroll, but not reroll my own. )
<Tim> (heh)
<Yvonne> ( I don't have any, but I'm incomplete ;_; )
<NinjaDebugger> ( ...so you're like Cell, and when you say "unite" you mean it 
literally, huh? :P )
* Saldin says, "In all honesty, I have a headache, Red." He pauses, and adds, 
"Migrane. It would be a migrane."
<Yvonne> ( Nah. I mean I haven't finished yet :P )
* Marguerite takes a nice hot plasma bolt to the back of the torso, 
disintigrating clothing, skin, and flesh. She manages to only croak instead of 
screaming, which is impressive because you can see bone. Thankfully she stays 
covered on the front, if just to spite Yvonne.
<Saldin> (Go Maggie!)
* Red winces. "Real or no, that has to be painful."
* Yvonne claps! "Yay, Tim!" She looks to Saldin and Red. "He was pretty good in 
the sack, you know."
* Tim goes from smug grin to worried as the bolt hits, "...Ow...now I see why 
you were worried about me."
<Saldin> It is bearable.
* Saldin does not skip a beat. "Pain is less relevant than people often think."
<Grysar> (Oh, just a note, remember to track your EP and use the exhaustion 
rules, as I want to know if they work properly)
<Tim> (....I am so glad I didn't get that level of easily distracted...Tim 
wouldn't have chance right now.)
<Marguerite> (140 - 79 = 61 HP left. Jesus.)
* Marguerite staggers to her feet, and grins again. "Takes more than that to put 
down a mad dog."
<Red> Uhg. Not to me. I suppose that makes me weak, but I'm really quite fine 
with it. 
<Marguerite> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8-6) and gets 1.
<Tim> 2d8-8
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-8) and gets 1.
* Saldin chuckles, more to himself than anyone else. "No, it is not weakness."
<Tim> (did it again x.X)
<Tim> 2d8-2
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-2) and gets 2.
<Saldin> 2d8-2
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Saldin (2d8-2) and gets 10.
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets -3.
<Yvonne> 2d8-4
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-4) and gets 6.
<Marguerite> (wait, what?)
* Tim is still blushing from what Yvonne said, but that doesn't prevent him from 
sending this bolt back like the first one.
<Marguerite> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8-3) and gets 7.
* Red raises an eyebrow and shrugs.
<Marguerite> (Quick question. How much EP to raise a stat temporarily, and is 
there a limit to the number I can raise?)
<Grysar> (10.  And...)
<Grysar> (We'll say max of dx/2 so 4.  Remember exhaustion!)
<Tim> (I'm keeping track, I'm just not there yet.)
<Grysar> (Oh, you can take off exhaustion between rounds if you like, ,as it's a 
simulation.  Do whatever gives you the best feel for that system)
<Marguerite> (Okay! Raising so I get a DCV of seven and don't die horribly.)
<Saldin> (Raised stats don't affect derived stats.)
<Saldin> (At least, in BESM.)
<NinjaDebugger> ( I've personally never had a problem with it. It's a VERY 
limited resource. )
<Marguerite> (Eh. It's not like I won't die next round anyhow.)
* Marguerite is, essentially, vaporized from the torso up. It looks painful.
* Red winces.
<Yvonne> Eww
* Tim looks a bit green.
<Red> Well. That's a loss for Marguerite. 
<Yvonne> But on the bright side, she knows how well her gun works.
<Tim> (And now you get better, 'cause this isn't real)
<Red> And... a disturbing sight, as well. 
<Tim> Ugh.
* Marguerite uh, reconstitutes. I guess.
* Saldin looks at the Arena. "I would say that she knew how well her gun worked 
before this."
<Marguerite> Oh, fucking christ that's painful.
<Tim> Er...sorry?
* Marguerite eyes Tim. "I'd accuse you of cheating, but all's fair in war. 
Obviously I've just got to learn to read your jumps." She walks into the stands 
and flops over.
* Saldin smiles pleasantly, and says, "Perhaps I would be a more suitable warm 
up? If you are not looking to remove clothing."
* Yvonne pouts.
<Yvonne> You're the one with the tentacles.
* Red smirks slightly. "I don't suppose you're up for another round after that 
warm-up?"
<Marguerite> Nah, I think I'm done for a while. Got to get my mind right.
<Tim> Give me a few seconds.
* Marguerite sets up for a nap.
<Marguerite> (*afks, back god knows when*)
* Saldin stretches, putting his tentacles above his head in the process. "Was 
there a point behind that statement, miss Yvonne?"
<Yvonne> I dunno!
* Tim takes a deep breath and then lets it out, his color returning to normal.
* Tim eyes Saldin, "I think I'll pass on fighting the tenticles, I can send 
bullets back, but I don't think I could that to you."
<Yvonne> I could fight the tentacles! It might be fun!
<NinjaDebugger> ( ... )
* Red rubs her face. "Oh, my."
* Tim eyes Saldin, and then grins, "Not in the way you're thinking."
* Saldin smiles at Tim. "You act as if I know how to fight with them." He then 
turns to Yvonne. "If you wish. However, I would rather play for more interesting 
things than clothing."
* Yvonne scratches her head. "We could fight naked, and the winner gets to wear 
clothes?"
* Tim grins and shakes his head.
* Saldin says flatly, "As much as that would not bother me..." he pauses for a 
second, as if searching for something, then says, "William would not approve."
* Red shakes her head.
<Yvonne> Aww
* NinjaDebugger is now known as Kurt
* Tim calls his bowl of popcorn back and waits for the other craizy people to 
figure out what happens next.
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets 1.
* Saldin steps into the arena floor. "However, I would be willing to... gamble, 
if you could think of something besides clothing."
<Yvonne> Pictures?
* Saldin stretches again, and then removes an amulet from inside of his shirt. 
It's shiny and gold. "What would I have to gamble to convince you to give up 
sexual activities for a month?"
* Kurt appears in the stands, looking quite a bit more attractive than he 
normally does. "Hello, what's goin' on here?"
[There's a faint impression of someone, presumably William, chuckling somerwhere.  
Not a localized phenomon.]
<Tim> (A months worth of sex, duh :P)
<Yvonne> North America.
* Tim blinks.
<Red> Oi! 'Ello, Kurt. Guess what? Tim can fight.
* Yvonne waves at Kurt. "Hi! We're trying to decide who gets to be naked first!"
* Kurt quirks an eyebrow.
<Yvonne> Or who gets North America.
<Kurt> So what, this is an orgy in the making, or something?
<Red> And Yvonne insists on fighting fer clothes. 
* Tim shakes his head and grumbles a name under his breath, before waving to 
Kurt.
<Tim> Not yet, but Yvonne's trying.
* Saldin glances over at the newcomer, then says, "I think, Yvonne, that it 
would be better if we fight for no wager. However, if you want to remove your 
clothes if you lose, don't let me stop you."
<Yvonne> Okay!
* Yvonne gets up and bounces (in more ways than one) down to the arena.
* Saldin grabs the amulet in his hands, and waits for her to get to the arena.
* Tim walks out of the ring and takes a seat, near the front of the stands.
<Saldin> (Strike that. No damn hands.)
<Red> ( Just wrap it in tentacle. )
* Saldin grabs the amulet, awkwardly, between both of his tentacles, and waits 
for her to get to the arena.
* Yvonne gets into the arena. "Ok!"
<Saldin> Are you prepared?
<Yvonne> Uh huh!
<Saldin> 2d8+7
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Saldin (2d8+7) and gets 12.
<Saldin> (I wanted the low rolls earlier, asshatbot.)
<Tim> (remember Dicy LURVS YOU!)
* Kurt leans over and whispers to Red, "So... what the hell's up with little 
miss perky?"
<Saldin> (Gonna roll for init, Yvonne? Or don't you have init defined yet? ^_^;)
<Yvonne> ( Oh )
<Yvonne> ( I didn't realize that's what you were doing. )
<Yvonne> 2d8+10
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8+10) and gets 20.
<Saldin> (Well, if you don't want init, I'd gladly strike first.)
* Red whispers back. "As far as I can tell, she's an impossibly rabid sexpot. 
She even slept with Tim."
* Yvonne waits. "Are you coming?"
* Tim doesn't hear that -he's not his aunt.
* Saldin stands very still. However, his amulet suddenly flashes brightly, and 
if you're close, you might hear a hum.
* Kurt blinks. "Who?"
<Saldin> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Saldin (2d8-6) and gets 3.
* Red points at Tim. "Tim. The young lad over there. And just so you know, her 
name is Yvonne."
<Red> ( Arg. Can't remember if Kurt was at the restaurant when Yvonne made her 
appearance. )
* Kurt looks incredulous. "...him?"
<Kurt> ( He wasn't. )
<Saldin> (Kurt must screw her rotten to preserve his honor!)
<Yvonne> ( Ummm... Did you do anything? )
<Saldin> (I happened to pick a GM centric action. Foolish me. >.<)
<Red> ( He's a ninja. Does he have honor? )
<Tim> (that actualy loud enough to hear or is Kurt being stealthy like the ninja 
he is?)
<Saldin> (Somebody hit the man? c.c;)
<Kurt> ( NO, that was pretty loud. )
<Kurt> ( turtles fight with honor. Ninja do not. Discuss. )
* Red nods. "Yes, him."
* Tim blinks and turns around.
<Red> ( *cracks up* )
<Tim> (The turtles are not ninja, mearly badly dressed.)
* Red waves cheerfully at Tim. "Don't worry, we're only talking about you behind 
your back!"
* Tim throws popcorn at Red, he misses.
* Kurt snaps the popcorn out of the air as it nears him and tosses it back.
* Red passes Kurt her bag of peanut m&ms. "Thanks for the save."
<Kurt> No worries.
* Kurt grabs a couple of M&Ms and passes them back.
* Tim lets the popcorn bounce off of him and back into the bowl.
<Saldin> (Okay, my action's over.)
<Saldin> (I'm just standing there with the humming amulet.)
* Tim shakes his head and goes back to watching nothing happen in the fight.
<Yvonne> ( Still in the stands? )
<Saldin> (I was out of the stands. They're all still in them. ^_^;)
<Yvonne> ( Oh >.> )
* Yvonne runs at Saldin. "Ok! My turn!" She throws a punch at his gut.
* Red has a few m&ms.
<Yvonne> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-3) and gets 7.
<Yvonne> ( S'a hit. )
<Saldin> 2d8
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Saldin (2d8) and gets 9.
<Saldin> (That's not a dodge.)
<Kurt> So... the nympho's fighting the... what is he, a tentacle demon?
<Kurt> ( It's a match made in heaven. )
<Red> He is today. Other day he was a woman. It seems to bother him enough that 
it probably isn't deliberate. 
<Kurt> I see.
<Kurt> You know, if I had a camcorder, I could make a fortune off this fight.
* Tim blinks at what Red said, but doesn't  turn around again.
<Red> ...you could? How? Or do I even want to know?
* Yvonne punches Saldin in the stomach, then swings upwards at his chin with her 
other hand.
<Yvonne> 2d8-2
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-2) and gets 0, a CRITICAL SUCCESS!!! 
"Fight! For everlasting love and peace!"
<Saldin> (Yep. You have managed to kill the poor defenseless monk.)
* Yvonne ... well, remember the old Punch-Out game? This is kinda like the fight 
with Super Macho Man.
* William briefly materilizes by Kurt.  "Privacy concerns aside, these records 
of these fights are intellectual property of the British Government and may not 
be rebroadcast, etc. etc."
<Grysar> (He actually does say etc. etc.)
* Saldin takes the first hit, only flinching lightly, but the second... yeah. 
Saldin just gets knocked out. Possibly with the noise of a neck snapping.
* William then fades out.  Probably to reappear next time someone needs a GM 
intensive action. :P
<Kurt> Darn.  
<Tim> Can't win them all.
* Yvonne jumps for joy. "Yay! Victory!"
<Kurt> Oh well.  Not like I need more money, anyway.
* Yvonne gives a ^_^_v to the spectators.
* Tim stands up and cheers for Yvonne, "Congrats!"
* Red watches the jumping and shakes her head sadly.
* Saldin picks himself up off the floor a few seconds later. "Well done." He 
pauses, and adds, "And I am actually more well built than you imagined. The 
tentacles are decieving."
<Yvonne> Oh.
* Yvonne smiles sheepishly. "I didn't realize, 'cause I punched you and you fell 
down."
<Saldin> That is what happens when you do not fight back. My strengths are not 
as physical as yours. As slight as your body may be.
<Saldin> 2d8-2
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Saldin (2d8-2) and gets 7.
* Kurt calls down to the field. "Hey, I got winner, ya?"
* Yvonne scratches her head. "Ok!"
* Tim turns around, "I won the first one."
<Kurt> ...you?  Against WHO?
* Red frowns.
<Red> Against Maggie. 
* Saldin suddenly smiles very slightly. "I think the beating is atonement for my 
lack of focus today."
* Tim points at Mad Dog.
* Kurt frowns.
<Yvonne> You shoulda agreed to take off your clothes. Then you woulda won!
<Red> Tim teleports. More important than teleporting himself, he could teleport 
her shots. 
<Kurt> ...that's dirty.
* Saldin smiles slightly. "Actually, I believe you are right. Although not for 
the reason you think."
<Tim> ...Well so much for me having any chance of winning.
<Red> You have no idea. I wish I hadn't seen what Marguerite's own shots did to 
her. 
* Yvonne smiles at Saldin.
<Red> And frankly, Tim, knowing isn't likely to save them. You're good at what 
you do. 
* Tim winces and shivers. "Thanks for reminding me."
<Kurt> Hate to see such a pretty gal get fried.  Glad I was late, no da.
* Tim rubs the back of his head, "Well, I've pretty much been living in the 
training room since the last time they called me up."
* Saldin suddenly gets a distraught look on his face. "... how saddening."
<Yvonne> Huh?
* Yvonne looks at Saldin hopefully. "You having second thoughts about the 
clothes thing?"
<Kurt> ...
* Kurt is just... speechless.
* Saldin blink at Yvonne, then says, "No, I don't believe you would enjoy it as 
much as you think." He turns and walks up into the stands. Face is definitely 
showing that something's bothering him.
* Yvonne blinks at Saldin. Blink.
<Red> Pardon me a moment, Kurt.
<Kurt> No problem.  Looks like I've got a fight, anyway.
* Red hands her m&ms off to Kurt and walks over to Saldin.
* Kurt hops up from his seat and balances on the seat-back.
* Tim looks at Kurt, "You going to up me or her first?"
<Tim> (insert beat)
* Kurt runs down the stands on the backs of chairs and hops out onto the field.
* Kurt lands a short distance away from this little sexpot and grins. "So, 
'sup?"
* Saldin glances up at Red. "Who is the man who rushes to his nudity?"
* Yvonne waves. "Hi!"
<Saldin> (Actually, it would be down. Unless Red is a six footer.)
<Red> ( She's tall, but not that tall. )
<Saldin> (Then down it is!)
* Rowyn has joined #sab2020
* Red "Kurt. He's an American Ninja, and he can handle himself. I'm more 
interested in what you learned from your encounter just now."
* Red shrugs and says that, even.
* Saldin says softly, "It is not my place." He then adds in a louder voice. "I 
believe my worry is more that... how would you say, that she will handle him?"
* Tim goes back to his popcorn eating.
* Kurt stands with his side turned to Yvonne, legs straight and feet 
perpendicular to each other, right arm held out in a "bring it" gesture, left 
arm tucked behind his back.
* Yvonne blinks.
* Red frowns, then shrugs. "I think he'll manage alright. I don't think he's 
interested. Don't tell Yvonne, tho. It'd break her heart."
* <sets mode: +v Kurt
* Saldin says, "I do not think so, but if he cannot say it for himself, I should 
not have to." He looks for somewhere to sit, and has a seat, stuffing, with 
effort, the amulet back away.
<Kurt> You gonna fight sometime today, lady?
<Yvonne> Ok!
* Red shrugs, and resumes her seat. And her m&ms. :9
<Yvonne> Right now?
<Kurt> No, yesterday.
* Kurt rolls his eyes.
<Yvonne> ( Init rolls? )
* Miles has joined #SAB2020
<Kurt> 2d8+7
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8+7) and gets 15.
<Yvonne> 2d8+10
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8+10) and gets 20.
<Kurt> ( Not like it's really gonna matter. )
<Miles> (*peeks in.  Hello?)
<Kurt> ( Heyo, Miles. )
* Yvonne flies across the arena floor and drives her elbow towards Kurt's gut. 
"Okay!"
<Yvonne> 2d8-5
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-5) and gets 10.
<Tim> (ello, welcome to the King of SAB 2020 fighting tourney!)
<Yvonne> ( That's a hit ^^; )
<Kurt> ( ... )
<Miles> (Can I just have Miles watch on the sidelines?  ^^;)
<Saldin> (Sure!)
<Kurt> ( ... ACV 10? Jesus fuck. )
<Miles> (And, holy shit.  ACV of 10?)
<Tim> (yes)
<Yvonne> ( Yep )
<Saldin> (Look out for Saldin, though1)
<Saldin> (He's SKEERY.)
<Tim> (...G fruging lord)
<Kurt> ( And I thought Rowy's gal was fucking ridiculous. )
<Red> ( Yes? Red's just watching, right now. )
<Kurt> 2d8-3
<Rowyn> (^_^;)
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-3) and gets 4.
* Miles appears right next to Red. "Hi!"
* Red grins and ruffles Miles' hair. "Hey, foxy. What brings you here?"
* Kurt disappears from in front of Yvonne and reappears behind her, driving a 
fist at her lower back.
<Miles> I dunno.  Just lookin' around.  ^_^
<Kurt> 2d8-7
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-7) and gets 2.
<Kurt> ( Hit. )
* Miles watches the fight. "What're they doing?"
<Yvonne> 2d8-4
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-4) and gets 9.
<Yvonne> ( Yep )
* Tim doesn't turn arounder, "Fighting."
<Kurt> ( ...DCV of 9? )
<Red> Fighting. Possibly for mating dominance. 
<Yvonne> ( No, I missed ^^ )
* Saldin glances back. Just to fill in the Miles, he looks like Tentacle Him. 
\_O_O_/
<Kurt> ( Phew. )
<Kurt> 2d8-5
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-5) and gets 7.
<Kurt> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-3) and gets 5.
<Kurt> ( SWEET! )
* Miles yipes and teleports to whatever side of Red is opposite of Saldin.
<Red> It's a ritual combat to see who gets to woo the ladies. Yes, that's it. 
* Saldin says, "I did not realize she desired wooing. Good day, Miles."
* Kurt drives his fist into Yvonne's back, throwing her forward through the air. 
He disappears, then reappears in front of her, catching her with an uppercut in 
the chin, tossing her up into the air. One more time, he reappears above her and 
slams a double-axe-handle into her back, sending her plummeting back to the 
ground.
<Red> That's because I'm distorting the situation in order to create humor, dear 
Saldin. 
<Saldin> Ah. I see.
<Yvonne> Owie!
<Red> ...Kurt kicks ass, yes. 
<Miles> He does!
<Tim> ...This is so going to hurt when it's my turn.
* Miles looks a little confused. "He's very good at kicking the rears of others. 
I think?"
* Yvonne makes a big crater.
* Kurt lands a few feet away from Yvonne, still in that odd pose.
* Yvonne then hops to her feet and darts towards Kurt, throwing a kick. "That 
was so mean!"
<Yvonne> 2d8-5
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-5) and gets 8.
<Yvonne> ( Hita )
<Kurt> 2d8-3
<Yvonne> ( -a )
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-3) and gets 7.
* Saldin says, with a slight hint of amusement, "That was a turn of phrase, 
Miles."
<Yvonne> ( Is that a successful defense? )
* Red snickers.
* Kurt ducks under the kick. His right fist flashes red, and the air goes all 
wavy as heat begins radiating strongly. "KATON!" He thrusts upward from his 
crouch sending his now brightly glowing fist at Yvonne's stomach and finishes 
the call, "AKURYOKU NO JUTSU!"
<Kurt> 2d8-5
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-5) and gets 4.
<Kurt> ( Hit. )
<Yvonne> 2d8-4
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-4) and gets 7.
<Saldin> (A counter stance. This really is King of Fighters 2020. c.c;)
* Yvonne spins out of the way, throwing another kick towards Kurt.
<Yvonne> 2d8-5
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-5) and gets -2.
<Kurt> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-3) and gets 3.
<Yvonne> ( Aiyah... )
* Kurt hops easily over the kick and lashes out with one foot in a kick of his 
own.
<Kurt> 2d8-7
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-7) and gets 7.
<Kurt> ( Hit. )
<Yvonne> 2d8-4
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-4) and gets 8.
* Red watches. "Fascinating."
* Yvonne blocks the kick and throws a punch.
<Yvonne> 2d8-5
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-5) and gets -1.
<Saldin> It is certaintly active.
<Kurt> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-3) and gets 6.
<Red> ( <Red> Their speed! It's incredible! )
* Tim munches popcorn.
* Kurt catches the punch in his left hand and snaps his right foot straight up.
<Kurt> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-3) and gets 8.
* Red has more peanut m&ms, and offers a few to Miles and Saldin.
<Kurt> ( Wrong mod. It's -7, and hits. )
<Yvonne> 2d8-4
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Yvonne (2d8-4) and gets 10.
<Yvonne> ( Yeah, I'm down :P )
<Kurt> 2d8-5
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-5) and gets 2.
<Kurt> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-3) and gets 8.
* Yvonne goes down long before Kurt manages to do any of that stuff anyhow.
<Kurt> ( Well, I missed the third hit... )
* Kurt grabs Yvonne out of the air and slams her down as she falls unconscious.
* Red winces.
* Kurt utterly fails to strip her, or even come close, though.
* Kurt dusts his hands off.
* Saldin calmly has some M&Ms. "Thank you." He glances at Miles, again. "You 
still seem extremely nervous."
<Tim> Erk.
<Kurt> No sweat.
* Yvonne bounds to her feet in a minute. "Wow! You're energetic! Wanna go to a 
hotel later?"
* Miles takes some and gulps them down, nodding.
<Kurt> ...I think not.
* Kurt dismisses Yvonne with a glance.
* Tim rubs his face.
<Yvonne> Why not?
<Red> People of the cloth frighten him, Saldin. 
* Saldin laughs. Like a real, rich, deep laugh.
<Grysar> (Wow, Kurt has standards.  WHo knew. ^_~)
* Red frowns.
<Kurt> Because you have no restraint, no class, and are far too conscious of 
your own beauty.
<Yvonne> Yeah. Isn't it great?
* Miles burries his face in Red's side.
<Tim> (Tim doesn't >_>)
<Rowyn> (He'd go with Kahlya then? o/~)
<Kurt> ( He's not a pedo. :P )
<Kurt> ( I hope. )
<Kurt> ( *eyes Tim* )
<Tim> (...Okay...some standards)
<Rowyn> (Well he said he had no standards! ^^;)
* Saldin looks at Miles again. "I am sorry. It is simply intensely amusing to 
call me a man of the cloth. The... irony, perhaps, is striking."
* Kurt looks up into the stands at Tim. "Well?"
<Yvonne> I'll fight you again if you want.
<Tim> I'll be down for my beating in a second.
* Red raises an eyebrow. "You're not a monk, then? Or am I misunderstanding the 
meaning of the phrase in this case?"
* Tim puts the bowl down and walks back to the ring.
* Saldin shakes his head. "Not as such, however, I do not perform many religious 
rites."
* Ardweden has joined #sab2020
* Yvonne heads back up to the stands. "Oh well. Show him what a real man's made 
of, Tim."
<Yvonne> ( Literally! )
<Tim> ...They're going to find out allright...'sa good thing it's not going last 
more than a few seconds.
* Kurt grins.
<Kurt> Don't be so pessimistic.
<Red> Ah.
* Kurt leans in and whispers as Tim gets close, "If you want, I'll make you look 
good."
<Tim> No, I'm only going to be inside out for a few seconds.
* Red pats Miles on the head. "See, there? Nothin' ter worry 'bout."
* Miles looks up and holds Red tighter.
* Tim shakes his head at Kurt, and wispers back, "It's training right?"
* Yvonne takes a seat again.
* Kurt grins a little and whispers, "Dunno 'bout you, but I'll give up a little 
training to look good for the ladies."
* Red sighs a little. "Well, you're good enough in this case, then."
<Yvonne> ( Honestly, Yvonne doesn't care :P )
<Kurt> ( Who gives a goddamn about Yvonne? )
<Yvonne> ( You do o/~ )
* Saldin nods, and turns away, "I am a monk. You don't seem like a particularly 
troublesome being, Miles. You need fear nothing from me."
* Tim continues to wisper, "I allready beat one, I don't think another would 
care, and the last one doesn't seem to like me much...and I don't particlurly 
want to look good for the guy with tentilce arms."
<Yvonne> You've got tails! That's neat!
<Tim> (Pretend I can spell c.c)
<Miles> Bu-bu...  Wah!  ;_;
<Saldin> (Is Miles manifesting the tails at the moment? ^_^;)
<Kurt> Okay.  Up to you.
<Miles> (Yeah.  ^^;)
* Kurt backs off a bit and drops into that strange and awkward pose again.
<Kurt> You can take the first shot.
<Tim> After watching that? Yeah right.
* Saldin adds, in Japanese, <Besides. Who would fear a buddhist monk?>
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets 5.
<Yvonne> ( Haven't you seen Shaolin vs. Manchu? Or Shaolin vs. Lama? )
* Tim snaps his fingers and the bowl of popcorn falls twords Kurt's head.
<Kurt> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-3) and gets 9.
<Saldin> (If I were Shaolin, I wouldn't have been taken apart by a woman who 
carries most of her body mass in her chest.)
* Kurt blinks as a bowl full of popcorn falls on his head.
<Kurt> What the hell?
<Yvonne> ( Sure you would. Shaolin monks can't hit girls :P )
<Saldin> (... Wherever did you get that idea?)
<Yvonne> ( Kung Fu movies ^^ )
* Miles 's eyes go wide and he vanishes.
<Tim> I'm going to stay over here.
* Todd has joined #sab2020
<Todd> (I'm here as your UN observer.)
* Red sighs and responds, <He would, that's who.>
* Kurt tosses a handfull of metal in Tim's direction.
<Kurt> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-6) and gets 4.
<Kurt> ( hit, +1 defense. )
<Tim> 2d8-7
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-7) and gets -3.
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets 2.
<Saldin> <It is saddening. I am not Mak or Peter Gibraltar. They, perhaps, are 
to be feared for him.> 
* Tim snaps his fingers again and sends the metal flying at Kurt's back.
<Kurt> 2d8-4
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-4) and gets 3.
<Grysar> (No, no, Mak loves extra-planars and all other living things.  Pay no 
attention to the fact that he pointed a gun at Miles' head. ^_~)
* Kurt winces in pain and falls forward as his back is perforated by half a 
dozen flying bits of sharp metal.
* Red shakes her head. <Since when does one fear only what one needs to?>
<Saldin> (Yeah, really. Saldin hasn't even threatened Miles. c.c;)
* Kurt reappears right behind Tim as his clone dissolves into a puff of smoke, 
leaving behind a small log. He slams a fist at the small of Tim's back.
<Saldin> <Fearing what needn't be feared will simply lead you astray. Or whereer 
Miles happened to go.>
<Kurt> 2d8-7
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-7) and gets 8.
<Kurt> ( ... But I miss. )
* Kurt slips on a patch of wet grass and goes down to one knee, punch aborted.
<Kurt> Shit!
* Tim yipes, "Great...we can both do this."
* Yvonne looks back and forth from Red to Saldin. "You guys talk funny now."
* Tim puts some distance between himself and Kurt.
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets 1.
* Red sighs. <That doesn't erase the fear, sadly. Many people fear things they 
need not. Knowing better than to do so doesn't make it go away.> She frowns. 
"I'm not sure if I said that correctly. I'm a bit rusty."
* Tim teleports across the areana. and then looks around for something else to 
throw at Kurt.
<Yvonne> Said what?
<Tim> (over)
<Red> We were talking about Miles. Don't worry about it. 
* Kurt disappears from where he stands and slams his fist at Tim's gut.
<Kurt> 2d8-7
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-7) and gets 2.
<Kurt> ( Hit. )
<Yvonne> Oh.
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets -3.
* Saldin smiles and says, "It is alright. I understand what you meant.."
* Tim isn't there to get punched, "Shitshit<shit>"
<Kurt> Che.
<Tim> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-6) and gets 7.
* Saldin turns to Yvonne. "So, you managed to keep your clothes on. I feel that 
some sort of medal would be in order, if I gave out medals."
* Tim snaps his fingers again and Kurt's log falls twords him.
<Yvonne> I don't get a medal? Maybe I better take them off...
<Kurt> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-3) and gets 7.
* Saldin replies, "I only have an amulet, and it makes for a poor award."
<Yvonne> Why? It looks like a nice amulet.
-Kurt- You there?
* Saldin gestures with the tentacles. "In this case, looks can be quite 
decieving."
<Kurt> ( Argh. Greg is... not paying attention. )
* Kurt steps easily forward and lets the log fall behind him. He raises a single 
shuriken in his hand, and both hand and shuriken are shrouded in blurring shadow. 
"Kage shuriken no jutsu." He sends the shuriken streaking towards Saldin.
<Marguerite> (back.)
<Kurt> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-6) and gets -2.
<Saldin> (Saldin! What did I do?)
<Tim> 2d8+5
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8+5) and gets 13.
<Saldin> (I'm just a harmless tentacle-armed monk. ;_;)
<Tim> (...)
<Tim> 2d8-5
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8-5) and gets 4.
<Kurt> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-3) and gets 11.
* Marguerite sits up from where she was taking a nap. "God bless the power nap. 
Time for my other vices." She lights a cig, gets up, and looks around.
* Kurt takes his own shuriken in the back as it's teleported behind him, but 
still has the energy to smirk as the shuriken right behind that one slams into 
Tim's chest.
<Todd> (For my edification, how do you learn about these mini-type things? Hang 
out in this channel?)
<Ardweden> (I have no idea.)
<Kurt> ( Hang out in here, or in #BESM )
<Saldin> (Either here or #besm.)
<Tim> (Hang out in #besm)
<Marguerite> (#besm.)
* Yvonne scratches her head. "What just happened?"
* Tim takes the shuriken right in the chest, "Argrk!"
* Kurt reaches around and pulls his own shuriken out of his back.
<Rowyn> (I learned it by the fact that ND's nick was Kurt ^^;  And by backscroll)
<Kurt> Fuckin' ow, dude.
<Kurt> That's a mean trick.
<Tim> Tell me about it.
<Marguerite> Shit, you're telling me. You weren't here when he vaporized me with 
it.
* Saldin gestures at the arena. "Down there? They are fighting, and Tim can 
teleport objects. Are you sure you are alrigt?"
* Tim winces and tries to pull the sharp pointy out of his torso.
<Grysar> (/me glances in.  Kurt has ruled wisely.  For the record.)
<Kurt> Okay.  I'm gonna try this, just to see what happens.
* Tim tries to laugh, "Go for it, it's not like I'll stay dead."
* Marguerite yawns and looks around for people. She wanders over to Saldin and 
Yvonne. "What's gone on since I died gruesomely?"
* Kurt brings his left hand up to his mouth and bites his thumb, drawing blood.
<Grysar> (Should I get in the habit of mentioning putting these things in the 
message of the day once they're running?)
* Kurt sketches an odd sigil on his right palm in blood, taking several seconds 
over the sketching to make sure it's absolutely right.
<Tim> (Wouldn't that involve planning them in advance?)
<Red> Yvonne defeated Saldin rather soundly, Kurt defeated Yvonne *very* soundly, 
and... this one's been going for a good long while. 
<Grysar> (More so for notifying people who join #besm after the start of game.)
* Kurt slaps his hands together in front of him and screams so loudly it can be 
heard clearly everywhere, "KATON!"
* Saldin says, "And everyone's clothing happened to remain on as well."
* Yvonne pouts. "Wasn't that soundly. I'da won in another sec."
<Marguerite> I'm sure you would have.
* Red shrugs. "I couldn't tell, then. You two move fast."
* Kurt pulls his hands apart and aims the bloody palm at Tim, and finishes the 
shout, "KARYUU ENDAN!" A MASSIVE blast of fire erupts from his palm, quickly 
widening to some ten feet in diameter as the beam gouges a massive path across 
the field towards Tim.
<Kurt> 2d8-4
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Kurt (2d8-4) and gets 6.
* Marguerite pulls out a flask and takes a swig, then holds it out. "Anyone else 
want a swig?"
* Yvonne smiles. "I'm fast and good with my body!"
<Miles> (*coughinnuendocough*)
<Saldin> (Everything Yvonne says is innuendo.)
<Todd> (Doesn't innuendo imply subtlety?)
<Tim> 2d8+4
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Tim (2d8+4) and gets 10.
<Miles> (... point.)
<Red> Yes. I'm sure you are. 
* Tim snaps his fingers and nothing happens...he looks very frightend for a 
second and then looks very on fire.
<Marguerite> Guess not.
* Yvonne pouts. "Aww.
* Kurt collapses to his knees as the blast finishes.
* Marguerite closes the flask and looks to Red. "Still up for a bout?"
<Kurt> WOW.
* Kurt pulls himself slowly to his feet.
* Tim goes on to look like a pile of cinders and blackend bones.
* Kurt stumbles over to Tim's smouldering corpse and looks down. "You gonna get 
up now?"
* Tim is suddenly alive and whole again, "...Ow...remind me to go AROUND that 
one next time."
<Red> Hm? Oh, I suppose I am, if it's quick. 
<Kurt> Yeah, that's generally the best idea.
<Marguerite> It probably will be, either way.
<Kurt> That's why I usually do it from hiding.  When I use it, anyway.  It's 
mostly intended for things like destroying helicopters and low-flying planes.
<Tim> It seems to work well on people too.
* Red walks down to the field. "Quite a show you've put on these past two days, 
Kurt. You should sell tickets, honestly."
* Tim pushes himself to his feet.
* Marguerite follows Red.
<Tim> ...Aww man, I waisted all my popcorn on you.
* Red helps Tim up if he needs it, and doesn't if he doesn't.
* Tim walks out of the ring under his own power.
<Red> We'll do this, and then I'm afriad I need to go take care of something. 
* Saldin rubs the back of his neck, then says, "Miles? You can come out, you 
know. If you're around, I could see where you are anyway."
* Miles isn't there.
<Marguerite> Yeah, I gotta go snag some food.
<Miles> (No, really, he isn't.  He ran away.  ^^;)
* Kurt pops up into the stands. "I agree."
<Saldin> (Coward!)
<Kurt> So, you gonna pay up?
* Kurt holds his hand out to Red.
* Marguerite cracks her neck. "Nap helped, though." She grinds out her cigarette 
and boots up Bubba.
* Red blinks. "I beg your pardon?"
* Yvonne waves to Red and Margie. "Good luck, you two!"
<Kurt> For the tickets.
* Kurt winks at Red.
* Red smirks. "Next time."
<Marguerite> C'mon, already.
<Kurt> Okay.  Just give us a good show, ya?
<Kurt> Both of you.
<Red> Ready?
<Red> ( Init now. )
* Tim nods, "Go for it!"
* Marguerite drops to a crouch.
<Marguerite> 2d8+14
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8+14) and gets 26.
<Red> 2d8+29
* Yvonne imagines a good 'show' and snickers to herself.
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Red (2d8+29) and gets 37.
* Red whips her rifle up and fires for Marguerite's spine.
<Red> 2d6-7
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Red (2d6-7) and gets 3.
* Saldin just sits there, looking down at the arena.
<Marguerite> 2d8-3
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8-3) and gets 10.
<Marguerite> (DR, damn you dicebot.)
<Marguerite> 2d8-3
<Red> ( Succeeded by 6. )
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8-3) and gets 10.
<Marguerite> (....)
<Marguerite> (What's the damage? >_<)
<Todd> (...)
<Saldin> (Tonight has _defined_ dicehate.)
<Saldin> (Except for the Kurt/Yvonne fight, and a little of Tim/Kurt, it's been 
horrid failures all around.)
<Kurt> ( Kurt/Yvonne was actually a pretty good fight. For Kurt, anyway. Yvonne 
got pwned. )
<Yvonne> ( I had pretty horrid failures in that fight >.> )
* Marguerite gets a bullet lodged in her spine. She doesn't look happy, but she 
actually does not look dead. She drops to her knees, and manages to fire off a 
Bubba hit.
* JexSemIdol has joined #sab2020
* JexSemIdol has quit IRC (Quit:  )
<Marguerite> (At your head!)
<Marguerite> 2d8-6
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Marguerite (2d8-6) and gets -3.
* Red curses and tries to scramble out of the way.
<Marguerite> (Succeed by 12)
<Red> 2d8-5
* Diceroshi throws the bones for Red (2d8-5) and gets 7.
<Ardweden> (Bring out the dicehate!)
<Miles> (Can you feel the dicehate?)
<Red> ( That doesn't even succeed. )
<Diceroshi> ( I hate you all equally. )
<Red> ( Yes, yes I can feel the dicehate. )
<Diceroshi> ( Except for Yvonne. )
* Red is nicely incinerated from the shoulders up.
* Marguerite falls forward on her face. "Fuck. I can't feel my fucking feet."
<Yvonne> Ew.
* Kurt grimaces. "Oh man. That's just... ugh. I did NOT need to see that."
<Marguerite> Wait, there they go. Ow, christ.
<Tim> Oww.
<Red> ...next time I'll aim higher. I don't know what I was thinking. 
* Marguerite stands up and walks over to Red, and holds out her hand.
* Saldin says with a matter-of-fact tone, "Well, that makes two vaporizations 
today. This is all amazingly brutal."
<Tim> Fortunatly it doesn't last.
* Red accepts the help up, wincing and holding her head.
<Red> Ow. Ow. Bloody ow. 
<Marguerite> Yeah, hurts like a bitch, don't it?
* Red hasn't opened her eyes yet. "Yes, it does. Remind me to stay out of combat 
sorties from now on. It's clearly not my place."
<Kurt> Yeah, that's where _I_ belong.
<Marguerite> Whew. Yeah, that's enough for me tonight. And I'll get you later, 
Kurt.
<Kurt> Sure.  Seeya.
<Kurt> I'm fixin' to leave, too.  You up to dinner?
* Yvonne waves. "Byebye!"
* Tim waves, "See ya."
* Marguerite winks, grabs her satchel, and vamooses, waving as she leaves.
<Red> I'm leaving as well. I'll... right. 
* Red trudges out.
* Kurt pops out of existence to head off to dinner. Whether he's alone or no is 
a mystery.
<Kurt> ( ANOTHER MYSTERY! HAHAHA! )
<Kurt> ( It's 1:30 AM. -_- )
* Yvonne smiles at Tim. "Dinner and a movie, and then something special 
afterwards...?"
<Red> ( Yes, it is. )
* Yvonne smiles at Saldin. "You can come too if you like!"
* Tim grins at Yvonne, "Of course. What do you want to go see?"
<Kurt> ( Is it really special if you do it constantly? :P )
<Red> ( 'Night, all. z.z )
<Marguerite> (Everyone's going to bed, right?)
<Kurt> ( Night, all. )
<Tim> (G'night Yu)
<Ardweden> (Night Yu.)
<Yvonne> Oh, it doesn't matter, as long as the theatre's nice and dark, and we 
sit in the back.
<Marguerite> (Night, ND.)
<Grysar> ( Night all sleepy people )
* Kurt is now known as SleepDebugger
<Tim> (G'night peope going to sleep.)
<Ardweden> (Yes it does.  If *I'm* aisle checking that day, you two are SO GONE.)
<Yvonne> ( ;_; )
* Saldin stands, and says. "With that, I think I will leave you two to your 
activities. I am not one for movies, and SAB's lack of haste means I will 
probably still be unable to leave."
<Tim> (Yes, but hopefully you arn't still going to be working theaters in 18 
years.)
<Yvonne> Aww.
* Red has quit IRC (Quit: WHEE. z.z )
* Yvonne smiles at Tim. "Okay, looks like it's you and me!"
* Tim nods and grins back at her, "Let's go find out what's playing."
* Yvonne heads on out!
* Tim walks beside her.
<Marguerite> (What is Miles doing?)
<Tim> (...Oh gods...Taki...is whining about what a horrible mother she is...)
* Saldin walks out of the arena before reaching behind his back and pulling out 
the two pieces of a bow from his pack, and a bowstring. "I must figure out how 
to assemble this on a day like this. This may take quite a while."
<Ardweden> (Do you want me to have Katherine go over there to shut her up?)
<Tim> (No, I allready have too many Arcana living in my head. :P)
<Yvonne> ( Saki could invite her to dinner... )
<Rowyn> (Plus having to assemble it with tentacles is an added difficulty. ^^;)
<Saldin> (That's, in fact, what he meant.)
<Rowyn> (Ah, so noted then ^^;)
<Tim> (using it with them would be nearly impossible)
 [Either way, I declare this mini over.]
