Mass-Interaction in Desset

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

Who: Draftees.
What: FIGHT FOR YOUR LIVES... or wander around. idfk.
When: Anytime this week.
Where: Desset City
Summary: Mass-interaction post in the city for the poor souls who've been drafted.
Rating: Anywhere from PG to R.

[With permission from the mods, I've gone ahead and put up this... post... for everyone who was interested in actually threading in the city. You can either prose or write in first-person; totally up to you. Actually threading a fight with the Third Party is also optional. Just keep in mind that if you do you'll have to be the one controlling the enemy's actions and whatnot. If you're not sure how to go about that, just remember the information they've provided us with. They're not very tough, but if you still need an idea with how they fight, just read up on this a bit. Please do remember that the enemies we're fighting are weaker compared to the ones previously fought, though. |D;

But yeah. Mass-interaction, guys. YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO.]

[Ted ended up... somewhat lost in the city, to be honest. It was all that bird's fault, he swears. Still, he does need to get back to where the others were, as well as avoid actual combat because, really, he may have an excellent aim, but he can only defend himself for so long without the use of his rune against these guys, and he'd rather not find out just how long he can last before he's forced to use it.

That, and he really wanted to know more about that strange thing in his room. He asked for a movie, since people have mentioned it a few times, but he never really had a chance to use the blasted black... box thing. He'll figure it out as soon as he gets back.]

Hello? [Where is everyone, anyway?]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[Hey, hey. Look. A certain someone's going to turn the corner and end up running into Ted. She blinks, staring at Ted momentarily before registering that it's... well, just Ted.]

... Ted? [She wasn't expecting to run into YOU!!!1]

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

... No...el?

[... Wait a minute.]

You were drafted too?

[blackenedchaos.livejournal.com]

[Oh hey there Ted, guess who happens to be going past right now?

Come on, really, guess?

Yeah, it's Ted's most favorite demon, looking very much like he did back in the days Ted knew him.]

[Bang is out and about, scaling buildings, jumping from rooftop to rooftop, and generally scouting out the area while moving swiftly. A key component to success in a war is knowing ones surroundings. He needs to make a virtual map in his head of the places so he's able to take advantage of any potential strengths the landscape may have to offer.]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[Noel is wandering rather slowly through the barren city streets. She's on constant alert for any sign of the opposing side, her giant guns at the ready in case she's ambushed. Right now? She's looking pretty tired. Or rather, constantly fighting for days had been wearing her mind down. Most of the events that have taken place in the city have been a blur for her.

The patrol down these streets may or may not be no exception. She's focused, prepared for anything to come her way. If anything happens, it's fine. She's not afraid when she has those weapons. Not one bit.

... Even so, she can't help but take note of how archaic the city looks.]

[startwithabang.livejournal.com]

[And Bang is running across rooftops lulz. Until he lands on one rooftop to look around and happens to spot her. Ah, that's--- THAT PERSON. Maybe he should jump down and give her a casual hello. A slight break from all this fighting would probably do both of them some good. Alright here we go. He's jumping off the rooftop and falling down straight towards her]

HELLO DOWN THEEEREEEE!!!

[Completely casual]

[After his talk with Albert the night before the first battle, Yuber decides it might be a good idea to obtain a particular suit of armor (http://www.suikosource.com/images/chars/y/yuber01.gif). He's still quite recognizable with the long unbraided blond hair, but this guise may well bother a few particular people.

But mostly he's going to be having some fun killing the Third Party most mercilessly. That is what he's here for after all. If anyone sees him, they will definitely be able to tell that he is very much enjoying killing them.

Oh, and he's looting anyone he kills, just because.]

[chikaidestroyer]

[Your summoner may have seen you at some point, Yuber. From the far-off, observing distance of a rooftop, more than likely.]

[black-onslaught.livejournal.com]

[Guess who is holding on hell of a grudge against Yuber right now? And guess who really needs to vent out some anger after the last week or two? Yeah, both answers happen to be Ragna. Who happens to catch sight of Yuber, even through the change of appearance throws him off for a second. But that won't be enough to stop him from going through with what he feels is right. So, while doing his best to avoid any of the Third Party while making his way towards Yuber, he'll just make himself known.]

Hey, you!

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[Kain couldn't hold it back any longer... he knew there were only mere days to go before they were meant to return, but he felt a need to post a message revealing his feelings to Rydia. So he chooses to do that just before he enters the battle on this particular day of fighting.]

[...and after finishing that, he glances abruptly toward someone who's just moved past him. It's that demon. He frowns deeply. Of all the individuals to be out here with, he trusts Yuber least of all. Seeing him in the armor that resembles his own doesn't help matters. That, and Kain has some scores to settle with him. Why not deal with him out here?]

[Kain smirks and takes off to catch up with Yuber's position.]

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

[ooc; Oh, heeeey! This thought randomly occurred to me thanks, 3am, would the looting thing apply to Kain too? Just so I know whether I'll make him showing up next week with stuff like flashcards tossed away and whatnot. XD]

[ivorygunslinger.livejournal.com]

[WHOOSH Flying down the streets on the motorbike - Holy cow had he missed this thing. At the moment he seems more interested in corraling and running down the Third Party before leaping off and taking them out himself.

And by Shiva does it feel good to be in the mist of battle again.]

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

[Derek, being one of the ones with a vehicle, makes for the further reaches of the city. Once there, he makes for the buildings and starts inspecting the insides. Yeah, there's going to be battles out in the street, but Derek's going for the sneaky ones...which means going into any hole they may find to hide in and...taking them out.

He's tried once or twice to talk to them, but after the first one tried to take his face off with a sword, and the second one just spat at him after he'd tied them up, he'd given up on that. He'd been hoping that at least one of the 'other side' would be able to think a little beyond their orders, but he knew better than to push his luck.

He hasn't actually killed anyone yet, but he's left quite a few maimed and unconcious warriors in the field; most of them going home with busted knee caps or something similar; enough to take them out of the action for a while (unless they had healers with them), but not enough to kill them unless they were extremely unlucky after Derek was through with them. He knows eventually one of them will leave him no choice in the matter, but until that happens, he's not willing to be the first one to land a killing blow. They aren't vampires, after all.

He's also been rifiling pockets; anything seemingly useful he'll take back to Albert for inspection.]

Medic was on foot like most of the others. He was getting a feel for the layout of the city in his head, finding out where he could crouch behind to stay mostly out of the action but still heal the front line fighters. It was a good feeling for him to be back in the midst of a war, even a minor one like this. He couldn't function well in normal society without the occasional bloodbath.

He was also inspecting the buildings for any sort of medical supplies and to see just how far advanced this society was. Medic had a bad habit of sticky fingers at times. Then again, he was used to replenishing his ammunition with fallen weapons. It wasn't really stealing if they were dead, was it?

[chikaidestroyer]

[Albert has been trying to keep away from the fighting as much as possible. He has been capturing information in his journal and avoiding areas where there has been fighting or places where he's seen Third Party patrols.

That isn't to say he's been entirely successful.

Depending on what day and time you catch him, his situation may be different. Sunday saw him being followed by a giant owl until Ted stole it before he started traveling with Kratos. Monday saw him still with Kratos until a fight broke out and they were chased apart. What could possibly go wrong later on?]


[ooc: For the record, I am keeping track of some things Albert does in the city. As such, parts of threads may end up somehow captured in unhackable journal entries.]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

Mercury's a more active fighter. But every now and then she needs information herself, or falls back to regroup before going back to the battle. It's one of those times that she runs into Albert.

"Do you plan to fight with your journal?"

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

[Ted would like to believe that he either borrowed it, or that the owl had tricked him and he had been innocent about the whole ordeal. The first one was slightly more appealing since he actually sounds like he had control over what happened.

But, anyway, after trekking forever and just narrowly avoiding getting attacked for the nth time sometime after he met up with Noel, he finally spots a familiar face. He couldn't avoid one ambush though and well... he wasn't exactly happy at the result if his limp is any indication. Staying outside for that long with a badly bruised leg really does wonders for his pride.]

Albert.

[Locked to Albert]

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

[Eventually, Derek will start sending in video to Albert; anything from individual buildings, to rooms inside where he's found members of the Third Party (often, these shots will include images of various soldier; all of them tied up, unconscious, and wounded in some way that would keep them off the battlefield for awhile), anything useful he finds, such as weapons caches, and rooftop shots to help triangulate where exactly Derek is in relation to their original drop off point. He even manages to make it to this enclosure's barrier, and takes a picture of that, too.]

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

[Myuria is thriving on the chance to stretch her legs. It's like being at work again, back when her job was traveling to distant planets and guarding underdeveloped civilizations. She's fine with being on her own, walking through the alleys with her staff and attacking any enemies she comes across. She's a capable enough warrior to fight on her own. Maybe she should be helping her allies, but she wants to see what kind of technology they have out here first.]

[stalkingmybro.livejournal.com]

[He never wanted to be out here, especially considering the fact that he could be at Luceti right now waiting for Takuya to come back instead of getting stuck out here where he was being forced to attack guys he's never met for a war he does not want to have anything to do with. After finally coming to terms with the fact that Kouji is safe, Kouji is safe and back home and maybe it sucks his brother isn't where he can see him, at least he isn't here being stuck in a place where...

Well, not that he was planning on doing much fighting either way. After seeing quite a few bodies around, Kouichi's pretty much convinced for now that hiding and waiting it out is the best solution. He's not fighting to save a world or to protect his friends (though Jenny was here, he probably should look for her, shouldn't he?), and it's just not the same as the Digital World.]

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

[Vincent has been swooping through the battlefield, shooting down enemy after enemy. But all of this fighting has taken its toll on his mental barriers. There are four demons within him longing for release. After a while... the strongest of his monsters gains control. It's always a struggle to contain him, and Vincent finds it no different this time around.]

[The black haired man transforms into the winged demon, slashing his claws at the Third Party soldiers in front of him before taking to the sky.]

[Chaos has taken over.]

[smoking-space.livejournal.com]

[And this... was what he was afraid of.]

[Cid's vehicle of choice for that day was a pickup truck with a full gas tank that he'd hotwired to get out of the garage - it had room for his spear and various other "items" and was really effective at clearing out smaller obstacles and even a couple of the enemy. But Chaos...]

[He can't bring Chaos down alone and he knows it.]

Shit.

[He's leaning out the window to catch a better glimpse of the demon that was his friend, then pulls himself back in to jam the accelerator down and take off after him. Get him down first, then worry about getting him out. Pulling into an open plaza at breakneck speed and hitting the brakes hard enough to squeal the tires and spin the big-ass truck around, Cid grabs his spear in one hand, reaching for the materia embedded in the shaft, then sticks his left arm out the window and aims the highest possible Comet spell right at Vincent.]

[wishesofdestiny.livejournal.com]

[Anyone looking up may well notice someone else with large wings, black ones though, unlike the white ones of their opponent, and a smaller set of black wings also like anyone else in Luceti.

At least Folken isn't doing too bad against them for all that he's not much of a fighter. But overall, he's like Albert, trying more for gathering information and only fighting when absolutely necessary. Once he takes down a target, he'll land on a rooftop and the large wings will disappear.]

[nottanzanite.livejournal.com]

[Zoisite's faring just fine in this fight, firing off blasts of fire and magic from a distance and running into the melee fray whenever he sees an opening. All of the frustration from the stress in his 'home' life has found a wonderful release.

Regardless of that pretty face and his young age, he's still a general. Wars are nothing new.]
