GHOST Ghost shook his head ever so slightly when Freestyle pulled back, then crossed his arms while he stood next to the man. "Sure, sure. Nobody's doing anything wrong here, buddy. You're all innocent, it's all a setup. Heard it all before. So how about just sharing where that drive is, and we'll get outta here?"
-
GM The man almost fell over, face first into the floor, but being unable to move his legs stopped him. "Let me go! You got no right to do this!" "Sure, that'll work!" Freestyle spat back, then twisted herself out of Chimera's grip and rolling back, out of reach. "How about a please? Maybe a little thank you, or a gift basket?" Her hands quickly moved across her body, patting down several points, including several of the disks that she had used as weapons.
-
In that case, Freestyle's free. And Ghost holds on to the man and watches the show, trying to bluff him into revealing where the drive is: 19 Opposed: 21 That didn't work. 25 - Freestyle - Unharmed 25 - Ghost - 4HP - Unharmed 13 - Chimera - 1HP - Unharmed

James rubbed his arm again, staying with his back to the wall. "Not really race, no. At least I didn't." He stopped to think for a moment. "It's... it's kind of like now, I guess? There's a lot of super heroes, all organization into Freedom Legions, and I kinda ended up here while fighting an Aliengator. They're big, strong and... kinda scary." James shrunk a bit into himself again. "I'm... I don't really know how to m-make it home, b-but people have been nice here, at least."

Nevermore II "Sure, what you can do, where you're from," Charlie responded to Heroditus. "Gotta be weird for you with the whole fish out of water experience, even after being here a while. But sure, I'll show you mine, you'll show me yours, sounds pretty normal 'round here." He paused for a moment, and winced. "Sorry, pun not intended." Charlie raised his hands up in a slightly defensive position, while grinning weakly. "Gottas ask Bernie something first, before I forget: How's that work with multiple of you around? Like, there's a single you in control of all of you, or each of you is your own you? Do one of you feel what happens to the rest of you? Shared memories and eyes and all that, or just when you get back together?" He sounded genuinely curious, like he was resisting the urge to try to poke her to try out his thesis.

Forever Boy Pan smiled, holding Eira close while Micah's wings surrounded them. There was something more to the smile than his usual cheer. He knew something. He looked up at Micah briefly, and then, when everything else was gone, he stood, breaking free of Micah's wings. "Open your eyes, Eira. It was not the end, just an end." He swung his arm out to the side, out towards the endless white that surrounded them. "I promised that I would get you home, and I keep my promises, do I not?" Once more, the Forever Boy took Micah's hands, as well as Eira's, while they stood in the white nothing, their feet somehow touching solid ground that was not there. "Do you see? This is not nothing! This is everything! The Hooked Man told us, but he had it all wrong: This story has happened before, and it will happen again! But not as he expected. See, something is very different, from all those other times! This time you are here! Love and friendship! For once, he did not win! And, Micah made a wish to the Pixies: That everyone would come out on the other side, not as they were, but better!" Pan smiled. His smile was brilliant. "Look! It is not nothing! It is an empty page! Full of promise!" Beneath their feet, grey rock began to form. It cut through the white nothing, spreading out, their feet now upon a skull faced rock in the middle of the sea that formed beneath them, the bright blue sky above them, islands forming in the distance. "Welcome to Foreverworld!" -

GM Tik. Tok. Time was up. "Come, then!" the Hooked Man bellowed as the white nothing closed in around them, bringing the fall. The Crocodile's mouth opened, and it moved swiftly. In one bite, the Hooked Man was gone from sight. All that remained was his scarlet coat. As the white encroached them, the giant beast looked down on the group, held tight in the Thunderbird's wings. It breathed heavily on them, and then it too was gone, caught up in the nothing of white that were all around them. In moments, everything was gone. All that remained was Angelic, Thunderbird, the Forever Boy and the Hooked Man's coat, surrounded by endless white of nothing. -
Yes.

TOU: 22

Will Save: 14, fail by more than 5, so he's paralyzed. Give me an IC!

GM The wolf fell and yelped in confusion as Zhenschina-voin's elbow flew over it's head. It quickly rolled around and lunged once more, swinging clawed fingers towards the woman that had dared to attack it.
-
The Big Bad Wolf takes a move action to stand and swipes at Zhenschina-voin again: 23 A hit! Give me another DC29 TOU save @Tiffany Korta Then @Thevshi is up!

GHOST "Hey!" The girl just exploded into some kind of gas? What the hell was up with that? Ghost disappeared into the floor, moving out of view for the moment while she started to fill the room, and hurting people. Dragon boy was first, it seemed, then everyone else? Yeah, no. "That's just nasty, kid. Come on, go for me instead! Look at the big time super hero in white!" Emerging from the floor again, he flew up through the smoke. Focus just right, tune his body just right, hope she could get hurt by this as he passed through her.
-
Nightscale clears the daze, then. Ghost tries to attack with a Shock Touch: 26 That's a hit. DC25 TOU save from Scarlet Mist: 14 She's staggered and dazed and gets hit by another DC25 TOU save on Ghost's turn! @Spacefurry is up! 25 - Purple Haze - KO 20 - Paper - 1HP - Unharmed 15 - Scarlet Mist - Staggered, Dazed, hit by DC25 TOU effect on Initiative 7 10 - Nightscale - 3HP - Unharmed 7 - Ghost - 4HP - Unharmed

Space Ranger III "Eh, that doesn't have to be the case every time. Good guys go for guns too, y'know." J'onn nodded in response to Veronica's request and shifted them around, before starting a slow descent towards the desert. The jetpack wasn't really meant for long distance, so if she had some kind of trick to get them out of the desert, he was all in. Reaching the ground, he let go of Veronica and pulled back his helmet again. He crossed his arms and grinned. "Alright then, show me what you can do, magic girl."
-
GM "Hey!" The man that Steel Spider had tried to attack turned the moment the hero missed, then turned and rolled away, quickly kneeling into a crouching position and taking aim. He fired a few bursts from his rifle, though the shots went wide, peppering the ceiling with several bullet holes. "Boss, we got trouble!" he shouted into his radio.
-
Since you attack, you're spotted, and the guy attacks: 13 Of course, he misses, but he at least knows where you are, unless you try to hide again, and the others have been alerted! 18 - Steel Spider - 4HP - Unharmed 17 - Robbers x5 - Unharmed
-
Space Ranger III J'onn moved about the room, staying above ground and mobile to avoid getting too close either the leader of this crew or the rest of the people. He ignored the Star Knight's plea on focusing on what was more important. Focus? For these guys? Like he needed that. They were small fry, nothing to be worried about at all. "You got it all wrong, buddy," he moved back, closer to Corsair and then fired another Freeze Ray at the leader of the group. "The hero shows up at the last moment to keep the bumbling sidekick out of trouble. That's how the stories go."
-
Another Freeze Ray vs. Arryn, then: 17 I think that's a hit, so a DC20 Reflex Save for Arryn, bound & helpless if he fails! J'onn keeps moving around.

Nevermore II Charlie stretched slightly when he saw the offered hand, grinned and pushed off from the couch with his feet, planting both hands on the armrest he had been resting with his head the moment before so he stood upside down for a second... and then pushed off with his hands, leaping up and landing on his feet, before offering Heroditus his hand. "No worries, man. I'm pretty nimble. Looked pretty interesting, you gotta tell me about how it works some time." "Hey Bernie, finding your ways around yet?" He'd studied his roommate. Of course he had. Be prepared and all that, like Alek had taught him, but judging from everyone's reaction to when Charlie told them all the he knew last year, then maybe it was better to be a bit more diplomatic this time around, right? "Yeah, y'know, I've seen you around, but I was wondering about it. What's your deal, Hero?"

"Ah, Luke!" James visibly jumped when Luke patted his back, quickly shrinking away from him, pulling back towards a wall, making sure no one else was behind him. "Err, hi. Hi, good to see you again, I guess." He kept an eye on Luke, before his attention was diverted towards Owain. James crossed his arms, looking at Owain, then paused like he was listening to something and got a horrified expression on his face, before turning his head and looking down, towards his back. "No! They're perfectly fine. I-I don't think we should worry. They're j-just being friendly." James paused, looking at the others like he realized what he had been doing, then turned back. "Sorry, there's... Sorry, it's good to meet you. I'm, uh, I guess I'm from the future. Err, your future. I got... this armor, I guess?"
-
"There's the team squads, but direct competition's kinda rare," Charlie said, looking up from his place on the couch in the middle of the chaos, a book in his hands, he looked up, head upside down over the couch. "Looking good, Heroditus. How about taking a quick break before you get in over your head?" Charlie had been early, moving stuff into his new room, having everything ready. Heroditus had been here when he joined the school, but he hadn't really run into him much. Moved in different circles and all that. Would be interesting to room together. He sat up right, looked at the younger girls, waving quickly at them and Heroditus. "Hey, I'm Charlie. We'll be rooming together this year," he pointed at Heroditus, then back to Bernadette, "and y'know, it'd be fun to have some teams like that. One of my friends is a dragon, watching him fly away with the basketball would be great."
-
"Sorry, I was... having some trouble with the room." James peeked out from his room, looking around at the other three. He looked at Leon, before quickly looking at the others. He approached slowly, rubbing his right arm. He was wearing a plain white t-shirt and a pair of jeans, "I, err... I'm James. I'm kinda from the, um, other direction on the time stream, I guess." He looked back and forth between them, looking unsure of what to say next.

Forever Boy Pan held Eira close. She was not herself. No, she was not herself in any way. This was all too much, was it not? Pan's home was so different, the rules so unlike what she was used to. "You will be. I am here, and, you see, I made a wish. A wish that you and Micah would return home, safe and sound. And wishes do come true, if you work for them." He smiled at Eira, while he looked at her, still holding her. He looked around, while Micah spoke. His interest in the Hooked Man seemed to have been replaced by concern from his friends. He saw the white that approached. "It is all ending." Everything was ending, then? The Crocodile stood above him them, staring at the scene on the ship. Unafraid, Pan returned it's stare. And his eyes lit up with realization. Scared of change? He was Pan, the Forever Boy! Why should he be scared? His lips split into a smile. He stood up, holding Eira with one arm, taking Micah's hand with his other. He looked up at the Crocodile. "Go on, then! End this! Do what you came to do!" Pan looked to Eira, and to Micah, and back again. "The fall is coming, yes? Neverworld is ending! But why should we be scared of change?" He echoed Micah's words, from the moment before. "What if, at the end of Never, there is Forever?"
