GM The villain swings his arms wildly, trying to swat away the stings from Emerald Spider's Spdr bolts. They didn't do much more than annoy him, before he turned to face Justice, murder in his eyes. "You hurt me!" His voice was like gravel, but he seemed more focused now. Like the blow that shook him had knocked some sense into the man. "Crush you!" With surprising speed, he moved forward, wrapping his arms around Justice, lifting her off the ground and starting to squeeze.

That's a hit. TOU vs. DC25: 28 The Villain turns to Justice and attempts a Grapple: 20 That's a hit, rolling grapple: 56 No way Justice can hit that, so she's grappled. The Ultio Suit users hold back for now. @angrydurf is up

Mette crossed her arms, just grinning at the hologram. Oh, this was such a bad idea, but it was too late to back down now, and this hologram was starting to piss her off. But, alright, she was gonna do it anyway. She looked at Muirne's outburst, wide-eyed. "Hvad helvede betyder det?" It was probably something to support her, right? Still, it sounded so weird! Weird, but cool! But, back to the hologram. Mette pointed up at the numbers. "So, that's it? Nobody? I'm just the Little Mermaid, not like I'm gonna be much trouble, right?" She spoke with a bit of mock innocence, then pointed up at the numbers. "And what do those numbers mean?"

Pan opened his mouth, then closed it again. He blinked at the bright light, all the colors of the rainbow before him. He crossed his arms, and nodded, his lips splitting into their usual grin. "Hello Judith, it is nice to finally meet you." He laughed a little bit, shaking his head. "I do know that. Give me some credit, I have been here for almost two years now, after all." He shook his head again, laughing at it. "You know, I was completely convinced that Ashley was the one with the deep dark secret, at least after seeing that Raven-thing in the dream." Floating around, until he was upside down, he rubbed his chin and stared at Ashley with suspicion in his eyes. "So, if Judy is really Judith, and she is really the daugter of the president, then what does that make you? A foreign princess?"

You can sense something faint, like there's a tunnel leading from the door that the Dormouse closed, but its not there anymore. Or maybe it is. To tell the truth, the entire sensation of that tunnel is weird, it just feels off. That weird sensation is still close to Bill the Lizard, but its exact position is ever shifting and difficult to focus. There's not really any doubt that the Dormouse is still somewhere connected to this area.

@Tiffany Korta Give me a Search check for using your Quantum changes to try and find Dormouse!

ic Meanwhile at the stately Summers Manor...
RocketLord replied to Tiffany Korta's topic in North Bay
"Hey, why do she get a pass for being a teenager but I don't?" Charlie's tone was playful, Alek should know him well enough to know that he wasn't being serious at all, but still, why did the time traveller get a pass but he didn't? Ah well, nothing he needed to spend too much time thinking about. "But I'm still curious." He turned from Alek to Young Callie. "You're brand new here, and the first thing you latch on to is streaming? Just what year are you from?" It just felt off to him, for some reason. Culture shock, if Young Callie was from the 80'es, and she latches on to streaming her super heroics? Weird. Not that he was complaining, he'd have to look it up later, but it was just a weird leap to him somehow. "Doctor Tomorrow's probably the best bet, if we can reach them. Fast-Forward's time travelled before, but that sounds more like accidents. Protectron's from the future, right? I think he's moved to Emerald City. Maybe there's some magic types that can help?" He looked to Alek. Time travelling really wasn't as common as you'd think, given Alek's earlier request. -
"No, I am quite sure that you make very little sense." Pan stuck out his tongue at Ashley, breaking in just before Judy could start her explanation. No more time for jokes. Judy was serious, so he should be too. Or at least try to be, yes. He sat in the air, floating slightly around. He was silent, which was in itself out of character, but whatever was going on, whatever he thought, it didn't show in his eyes. "Please, give me a little credit." He sounded rather serious, for him. "I might lie, cheat and cause trouble, but I am true to my word. Your secret is safe with me, until you tell me otherwise."

Gimme an IC for that!

"Hello, nice to meet you." When Pan addressed Eira's mother, he spoke in the same perfect Swedish. At least to the fancy family's ears. He quickly followed, hand in Eira's hand, watching, listening and making the appropriately sounds when Eira's father and mother explained the house and family history. He made little reaction beyond following Micah's advice for being perfectly behaved. At least for now. On his very best behavior, of course. No need to upset anyone. Still, he looked rather crestfallen at the lack of shenanigans. Surely, there were to be some shenanigans to be had? Before Eira's father had a chance to respond to Micah's question, Pan chimed in. "Servants. They run next to carriages and the like. I think butlers are a more common word." He grinned to his friend. "Back home, it is a sign that you are truly fancy if someone is running after you." He looked around the room, but didn't really seem to notice it, as he instead listened to Eira's whisper in his ear. "Hopefully not some shenanigans," he whispered back with a wink.

Mette stared ahead, into the room, as Muirne's telepathic apology and questiosn reached her. She was staring at the arena, mouth hanging slightly open. The best that Rurland had to offer? Champions and fights? All coming up on a big screen? She knew that she probably shouldn't do this. She knew she was out of her depth here, standing in the middle of the Glorious Robot Revolution, but... The more stealthy people in the Vanguard needed a distraction, right? And Mette was great at being a distraction. I'm pretty sure I'm about to cause that distraction you guys wanted. She looked to Muirne with a great wide grin. "Watch this." In a way, it might remind Muirne of a shark, before she stepped forward, walking towards the hologram that kind of reminded her of Kay. "Hey! I'm in! What do I gotta do?" She raised her right hand, clenched into a fist, into the air as she walked confidently towards the hologram.

REBELLION Rebellion had hidden the book and harddrive the only semi-safe place he knew: His personal room at the Elder Manor. Sure, others might have access, but he had secret places in there... and now that he had some solid evidence like this, he realized that he really needed some kind of hideout. Not that he had the time right now. Time passed. The book was difficult. He knew about Emerald City's supernatural community. He had found it a few times, he had tried to go there and, well, he was not a part of it. Not that he attempted to be. Anyone there could be working with Abracadaver, Mingzhu or the conspiracy. Anyone there could have helped create the Terror in the first place. He tried to understand the book, and it made little sense. Maybe some of the notes helped. He tried to visit shops and places that could help, anything to help him cross reference things in the book, without seeking it out directly. That wouldn't work. He couldn't let anyone know what he had. The harddisk was a different beast altogether. Rebellion knew about computers. He could hook it up. Try to get past its defenses. If the conspiracy had any sense of security, it would be protected, after all. He only looked into it while completely offline. Never hooked it up to an online device, only used a burner laptop. Nothing that could be traced to him. Two months was a long time. He didn't just do research all this time. He had information in his hand, more than he ever had before. He had to know more. Had to learn all that he could.
-
He knows that magic is out there in EC, he has at least a few magic classmates. He's spent some time investigating EC's supernatural scene, since the Terror was in part supernatural, so he might have picked up some things, but its not his passion. He's too paranoid to call others for help, though. If an extended period of time passes, he'll also have spent time researching the contents of the harddrive that he stole, as safely hidden away at the Elder Manor as he can be. Untrained Arcane Knowledge for the book, then: 17 And Computers for the harddrive and trying to get access to it: 29

GM The second evil Justice, the one that had been a man just before, fell hard to the ground... and the first of them suddenly didn't look very happy to be fighting against two super heroes all on her own. She raised her gun, pointing it to the sky instead of anywhere specific. "Alright, alright! Just... just stop and hitting me, alright?" She sounded nervous, panicking even. "Look, I'll just leave the loot behind, then you can just let me go, alright? Deal? Cops are gonna be here soon with all this noise, and I bet you don't wanna talk to them either, right? Right?" She didn't sound entirely convinced at that last bit, but she had at least produced an USB key that she was waving around.

Justice Robin had guessed that Salvo's armor was some kind of magic, but that rod that just came bearing down, punching straight through the bad guy's force field with enough to just completely stop him in his tracks... and then it just lookedl ike a firecracker went off. What the hell was that? No time to think about it right now. Robin had to act. Use the advantage that Salvo had given her. She leapt at him, stretching a leg out in mid-air and delivered a flying kick to his face that sent him down, landing hard on the ground. She wasn't about to take credit for this one her own, but still... she called out! "Hey! We put down your friend, we're gonna get you too if you keep fighting! Give up now and hand over whatever you stole!"

Justice follows up and attack Evil Justice 2 with a Justice Strike a +2DC/-2 ATK, since he's effectively flatfooted being blind and deaf: 25 That's a hit! DC 27 TOU for the bad guy: 17 He's out cold Evil Justice 1 fraks over this and takes no attacks, but there'll be something happening IC once I get to post. 14 - Justice - 2HP - Bruise (x1) 7 - Evil Justice 2 (The Man) - KO 7 - Evil Justice 1 - Unharmed 2 - Salvo - 0HP - Bruise (x2)
-
He does however have Jack-of-All-Trades and +7 Intelligence bonus, so he might have picked something up! Alright, once he's sure he's at a safe distance, far away from the Riverfront, Rebellion is going to start off with looking through the book, particularly the pages that it was open on. What kind of roll do you want?
-
REBELLION Mars was a bad guy, now? Made some kind of sense, at least. The whole Ultio Suit thing seemed rotten, anyway. Elliot looked at what Naomi was writing, then over to Wells. "You still sound like you're just trying to figure out what someone with more money than you are doing, y'know." Still, he reached into his backpack and pulled out a shiny, high tech looking belt. He held it close, looking between them. "Its a stupid toy with way too much power. I've seen kids at Elysian Academy start to use them to get into trouble, but they shut down before they do anything too illegal." He paused, looking down at the belt in his hand and grimaced. "But why do you want it, anyway? What do you need it for?"
-
"Well, that was much easier than I thought it would be." Pan grinned at Ashley, now that Judy was taking command. Quite unlike her, was it not? Maybe there was more to her character than Pan had suspected? He raised his right hand in a closed fist, then quickly opened it, golden glowing dust flying all around them. Pan and Danica had already been flying, now Judy, and even Ashley, if she wanted, would join them. Happy thoughts, yes. Many happy thoughts. Sitting in mid-air, watching the others, he looked around. Anyone walking by would hear nothing. An illusion of silence. An image of flying youths. Nothing more than that. "Silence, calm, and happy thoughts," he concluded, waiting for the big secret to be spilled.
-
Pan nodded solemnly at Micah's words. Yes, yes. He should be on his best behavior. That would be the best. Parents could be scary beasts, after all. Not that he had met many, but he had heard stories. <"Hello Mr. Natt och Dag."> To Mia, Micah and Lulu, he spoke English. To Eira and her father, it was perfect Swedish He paused slightly, noticing Eira's father's eyes resting on his and Eira's hands. His somewhat passive expression split into a wide grin as he fought with himself to stay grounded. <"I am Pan, its great to finally meet you!"> He sounded genuine enough, at least. But he still held on to Eira's hand.

I'll be on a short vacation with (probably) no computer for most of the time from July 3rd till 12th.

Fail by 6, that's a bruise and daze for Carnifex. Give me some actions from Carnifex and Dreamer, and IC for those.

"I try not to! Why would I, when I can do this?" Pan chimed back, sitting on the air right next to where Danica was floating around. He reached out for the spectral tortoise that floated around them, before glancing back towards Ashley. Maybe now was the time for the confrontation he had been considering. He grinned widely at Ashley and Judy. "Well, you are both free, are you not? Why would you not go where you want to go? Who would stop you?"
-
REBELLION "Yeah, sure." He stared straight at Naomi. "You had nothing to do with that at all." No need to press it any further, then. Either of them could have powers that made the bullies deaf, but he kind of doubted it was Wells. He'd "met" her before, after all. It was kind of uncanny how spot on the Meta-Naut's impression had been. Ten minutes was an eternity, wasn't it? "So, why did you feel like coming up to me like this? I kinda doubt its just for my charming personality."

Its Reflex to dodge a Dazzle Effect, Fort is for getting rid of it after. TOU: 15 Reflex: 17 Staggered and Dazed, and Blinded and Deaf. Evil Justice 2 is not having a good time. Gimme an IC.
