Player Event - Chaos Plot

Who: Helios and pretty much everyone who replied to this post
What: The demon god Apep which affixed itself to Helios’ soul has awoken.
When: August 6th-9th
Where: Starting around house 44 then mainly around town and the woods
Summary: Basically Helios gets possessed and causes all sorts of chaos and destruction that the evil god, Apep, is known for causing!
Rating: R for lots of violence



[ It’s strange how the twist of events of a simple evening walk could change much of everything. In an instant, that was Luceti’s way of things, changing things in an instant. And Helios never even saw it coming. There were still parts of that night and parts of his soul that he never truly understood. But there were always ways of finding out. They say hands on experience is one of the best ways of learning. And this is a lesson he and several others won't soon forget. ]

((ooc; Okay plot is a go! If anyone doesn’t have an out for their character to be saved please PM me or contact me on plurk at pathogenic~ Otherwise have fun!))

[He laughs bitterly.]

Oh, if only--I'll give you the full story when you get here. It's just me, for now. There might be a few more over the next few days...and you'll want to talk to Adele. Physically she's fine, but emotionally...

She's a mess, and that's the short version.

...

I'll do that. [GRIMACE. There is a pause where he sorely wants to add in a goddamnit, but he bites his tongue.] I'll be over in two minutes. [You know something. Fuck it. Law's just going to snap his fingers and make his clothes and weapons appear on him. Including the gear he wears on mission, chainmail mesh included. Something serious went down, and it doesn't seem to be over yet judging by Lupin's voice, so...]

Actually. It won't be two minutes. It'll be now.

[Flick.

Pop!]

[The battle gear was unnecessary--it was beyond either of their scopes now, and in the handling of wizards and gods. Law's sudden appearance doesn't even give Lupin pause, though it does elicit a bitter laugh.]

Man~ We need to stop meeting like this...

[Trying to make a light joke, again, but his poise and expression is anything but comfortable. He's geared up himself for missions of a sort as well, though his equipment is geared less for combat and more for stealth. Clad in his tightly fitted black pants and turtle neck, gloves, and his shoulder harness, he looked like he was better prepared for infiltrations. The shirt was too tight to accommodate for all of the quirks of Luceti, but the problem had been hastily fixed with a few strokes of a penknife to allow for his wings to fit through.

Beyond the obvious weariness and the way he's favored his arm, Law would note that he smelled like cigarettes. A lot of cigarettes. It was almost as if the thief had been operating on smoke, caffeine, and adrenaline.

He eyed Law, and tipped his head in acknowledgement.]


The worst of it is over, I think. Hopefully our cavalry succeeds in containing the problem.

[personal profile] deathsdoctor 2012-08-14 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
We do.

[Eyes that were more blue than normal scanned the area, scanned Lupin, and narrowed. Infiltration gear - that's what his mind immediately leaps at. Then his nose twitches at the cigarette smoke. And he puts it together, with the worn face, shadowed eyes.

How bad.

And his fingers tighten slightly around his nodachi.]


... hopefully.

What happened?

[His gaze has come to rest on that arm. Someone popped it back in its socket, but there is absolutely no way he could miss that injury. Or speculate on its cause.]

Shit hit the fan. [Pardon his French--he does not care, not when Law is this tense. Helios Sprensonne, a neighbor and acquaintance, was possessed by a god of chaos. Like gods do...he caused chaos.

Deafened and blinded the region around 44, including 46. He attacked--screwed with Adele's head somehow, rendered the tech belonging to my new housemate, Commander Shepard, unusable, ended up turning some freaky looking guy that Adele called Isaac to his side...there's probably more, but Adele and I have spent most of our time after that in the library doing research.

We ended up calling Harry Dresden, his sources, and a storm god called Saori to help us. They should be working on fully containing that thing possessing Helios right now.

... chaos god. Lovely. [Scowling. That may or may not be a bit beyond his paygrade.] I guess the Malnosso felt things were too ordered here and needed to shake things up. [It may not be them but Law wasn't feeling like being charitable in giving them the benefit of the doubt.]

... I've treated Mister Issac. The man's quite the vulgar spitfire. Not the type to bow. If this god is turning people, it could get beyond troublesome to unbind them. [Not his area of expertise.] I hope he hasn't managed too many - rounding them all up will be difficult.

... but for now let's focus on you and your injuries. If anything else that comes up needs to be dealt with, it will be dealt with.

Yeah, it looks like we won't need to be waiting for their ultimatum at this rate. It's all ready happening. [There was a touch of paranoia to his tone, as if he had been expecting the worst since July.]

I have no idea what the damage is otherwise. He may have gotten others, or he may not have. We'll have to see. [He was just glad to drop the concerns that he had been carrying for the better part of the week. He could focus on himself. Everything else was no longer his problem.]

...

It was a melee, if you're curious. Being deafened is a strange thing, and its very dangerous in my profession. I broke away from our little group to do some visual recon of the perimeter, because waiting for the enemy to blindside you is stupid. Of course, breaking away was stupid too--that thing possessing Helios jumped me.

At least I kept Luke's tech safe and tripped him up. It wasn't much, but it was something.

No kidding. [Law is a properly paranoid man himself. Perhaps it is. Perhaps it isn't.] They're finding ways to rattle the cages.

I guess we will.

...

[Melee.

Lupin. You did what?

... at least you admit it was stupid. Sighing.]


I was. And I'm glad you tripped him. But, you're right. That was stupid. You shouldn't have been the one to do the recon. You were not in form for it, and I'm not just talking about your penalty. [Little sleep, off the meds - that was not a shining example of risk assessment there.] But you realize that.

... let's get going to the clinic. The sooner I attend to that arm, the better.

Thanks for sparing me the lecture then. [Because he had a feeling that he was never going to hear the end of it from the rest of his friends.

He joined Law on unsteady legs, and forced himself to concentrate on the simple act of just putting one foot in front of the other. He had barely slept over the last two weeks because of the Shift and the mess that ensued, but he figured that Law figured that out all ready. The man had his ways of knowing what was happening around the village, and Lupin respected that.]


...There weren't many other options. It was either that or we send Shepard and leave ourselves unprotected; send Adele, who would probably have died because she is not experienced in that kind of thing; or send Artoo, who only communicates in beeps and is a risk to put in danger because we have no means of repairing him. The three of us can't even understand him in normal conditions, and silence makes it a lot harder.

we probably should have stayed together...but then we all would probably be a mess. Everything we could have done carried a huge risk.

[Law made sure to walk close, in case Lupin required something to grab if he suddenly had a spell of vertigo.]

I do realize that, and no, there's wasn't a perfect solution... or even a good one. That's why I'm not reading you the riot act. It would have probably been slightly better if you had stayed together in my opinion, but what's done is done.

Can you handle me teleporting you?

[Teleporting. He wasn't certain, but he was less certain about walking any distance. While he could put on a show, he wasn't going to be able to maintain it for long.

It was by far the better option.

Lupin sighed heavily and grabbed hold of Law's arm, grateful to have the man there as an anchor. It would have been useful to have someone like that jump around with him during the last Shift, but the Malnosso were rarely that considerate.]


So long as we don't end up in someone's refrigerator, it should be fine. Just...wait a moment]

[Bracing himself didn't stop the odd sensation of movement and the ever familiar feeling of being thrown off balance. He clung to Law and closed his eyes against the crashing vertigo.]

...

Well It's better than being under someone's bed.
deathsdoctor: (Neutral | Thoughtful)

Speaking of beds, let's get you to one and off your feet.

[Like that one right there.]
redjacketthief: (focused--intently so)

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-08-17 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Right. Right.

[No arguments, which was itself something of note. The fatigue caught up to him when they reached the dome, and Lupin gratefully flopped onto the bed. It was jarring, but he didn't need to think anymore.]

[He fingered his injured arm gingerly as he watched Law get settled, swallowing the subtle hike in anxiety. He trusted Law, but medical facilities had a tendency to put him on edge. It was going to be a hard habit to break, even though doing so was necessary at this point in time.]

Saori did. The woman we called to help us on Tuesday.

[And he returns to examine the arm in closer detail.

... this is not bad work, he finds.]


She did a good job. I'm going to have to do some x-rays to make sure that it's in the correct position and you have no fractures I need to treat before placing it in a sling.
redjacketthief: (-glasses- thoughtful)

August 9th, early morning | Action with Law

[personal profile] redjacketthief 2012-08-19 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
[He figured that she did--her perceptions are heightened enough that she can tell when a person's ki is out of alignment, and how to correct for it. Lupin nods in understanding at the comment.]

Figured as much. It's why I called you.

...we're gonna need to get everything off, aren't we? [The shirt he didn't care about, as he was going to redesign it regardless, but the holster provided a different set of problems.]

[He eyes Law at this, both curious and a little suspicious. He had an idea, but the events that went down in 46 had him a little leery.

It might have just been stress and fatigue.]


Wacky. It's the same kind of thing you've done before, right?
