modforged: by your powers combined (alexstrasza)
Warforged Mods ([personal profile] modforged) wrote in [community profile] warforged2014-03-24 07:34 pm

sometimes you can't make it

Who: Alexstrasza, Krasus/Korialstrasz, and the Redsworn
What: Successful retreat into the Ruby Sanctum
Where: Ruby Sanctum
When: After a long, grueling battle near the borders of Suramar
Warnings: Please PM the mods if any warnings are needed

[The Ruby Sanctum is a flurry of activity. This becomes clear within two seconds of stepping through the portal. The wounded are guided over to a grassy clearing surrounded by saplings and adolescent trees, bade to lay down and receive healing from other dragonkin. Some of the trees are years old, while a few look to have shot up recently. If you watch, vines engulf one fallen warrior; the body sinks into the ground, and a tiny sapling appears in its place.

Despite the war going on outside, the sanctum is less of a cavern and more like a self-contained dimension. Ample sunlight drifts down through scarlet leaves, which are occasionally home to the crimson scales of a whelpling. There is life everywhere: insects on twigs, birds chirping overhead, flowers at your feet. Dragon eggs lay nestled in the nooks and crannies offered by the tranquil forest. There is a decently-sized spring filled with fresh, pure water, as well as some small rocky outcroppings to sleep in. It's warm and comfortable enough to rest out in the open, too.

The cloaked and ever-mysterious Krasus stands watching the dispersing redsworn, his back against the massive oak in the center of the sanctum.

Occasionally, one may glimpse a beautiful red-haired woman with copper skin winding through the copse.]

[ooc: Mingle log for redsworn!]

"I intend to!"

Her grin returns, a bit feral this time, her pointed teeth showing.

"Once I figure this all out I should be able to do at least something. Is our goal just to hunt down and destroy all the demons we can find then?"
misterbrief: (what did you justsay?!)

wow i just realized i spelled Mar's name wrong /face in hands

[personal profile] misterbrief 2014-04-04 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll find one. [Meaning he wants to find a way to be a trash compactor himself but he will fail miserably.]

Besides, what use are you of to me? Or anyone for that matter? All I see is some ridiculous elf running about worrying about his shopping list of useless belongings.
misterbrief: (you're serious?)

[personal profile] misterbrief 2014-04-05 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
...

[He cannot believe that just what did he really just go there]

Please. I've seen intergalactic toads more attractive than you. [Or he just doesn't check out guys.]
wilder: (kayne shrug)

[personal profile] wilder 2014-04-05 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
[he so did, and he just smiiiles]

You know, jealous denial? Really makes anyone look ugly.
misterbrief: (Face it you took a gamble and lost.)

[He grins wickedly back at Zelos.]

Yes, I can see that. It's done awful things for your skin tone, I see. It's made you look quite sickly, you might want to see a doctor about that.
misterbrief: (Get away from her)

[personal profile] misterbrief 2014-04-05 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Her answer was not well for his peace of mind. Though now, never before has he been more thankful for Dr. Gero creating the androids. 18 could at least fight back at home without rest, unlike the others. But that still doesn't cover the whole planet...]

I see. So you guys can't stop them on your own, so we're the ones that were pulled here to help, tell me this; how am I supposed to know that once we've beaten this Legion of yours, that you and the rest of your kind won't try something? Because if there's one thing I don't like, it's being used as a pawn.
misterbrief: (Put them in with the luggage.)

i owe you candy for this tag being so late. i am sorry ;;

[personal profile] misterbrief 2014-04-05 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, yeah. I'll figure this out on my own. [Ever the arrogant stubborn jerk who doesn't want help :( ]

I'll learn to control this power, and when I do, I assure you I'll take care of this Legion. [He says that, but he's unsure if he can do it alone. He's already been in a situation that merited help as much as he hated that fact, but that's what comes with being transported to new universes.]
misterbrief: (you're lying)

[personal profile] misterbrief 2014-04-05 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Hey. [He totally drops his sly smile now.] If I'd of known I was going to be transported here, I'd of taken it with me, believe me now. It just so happens I was in bed when I was brought here, so I'm thankful that I was even clothed.

But it just so happens that I didn't even get a courtesy warning to get ready to fight in this universe, so don't you get on me about not having my armor with me.
wilder: (oh yeah...excuses)

[personal profile] wilder 2014-04-05 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Sorry Vegeta, but you used too many insults for him to just go along with it]

Now now, we know that's not true. It's very clear to me now what all these insults are about.

Which because I'm a great guy? I'll let you down easy.

You're not my type. Sorry.
misterbrief: (UGH)

[personal profile] misterbrief 2014-04-05 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
[He pulls this awful, twisted, disgusted face.]

How repulsive! How dare you even begin to imply that! I'm married, I'll have you know! To a woman.

[NO HOMO]
wilder: (sneer)

[personal profile] wilder 2014-04-05 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
[SORRY HE'S CALLING HOMO]

Really? Are you now?

Haha, then it's really good I said no! I know wars are lonely places and people do reckless things, but think of your wife back home man!

it is okay friend, but yes i accept candy

[Damn, Vegeta. Tough words.

He doesn't sound like a boaster, though. Amane isn't a completely horrible judge of character, so maybe he has reasons to believe what he did...

Someone like him kind of drives her to the point that sometimes, literally the only polite thing she can do is say 'I see' over and over.]


Alright then. By the way... what's your name? I am Amane Kuzuryu.
misterbrief: (dude srs)

is reese's peanut butter cups acceptable cuz those are my fav

[personal profile] misterbrief 2014-04-05 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[He almost spits out 'none of your business' but he knows how that fared last time for him, so he actually decides not to be a dick for a change.]

[Hand setting on his hip, he gives her a look before he answers.]

It's Vegeta. Now, if you don't mind, I think I've got some work to do now that I'm thinking about it. [Now he's in a training mindset, oh boy]
misterbrief: (silently angry)

[personal profile] misterbrief 2014-04-05 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Ugh, you disgusting creature!

[Zelos has found the one thing that makes Vegeta stomp off without hardly trying and grossing him out at the same time. And that's what he does, he stomps off, throwing the rest of his food in his hand on the ground. Stompy stomp stomp.]

Same as everyone else who sees it >.>

Useless?! I'm offended! Only ninety percent of them are useless. The rest I could have offered to a blacksmith to make valuable weapons and armor out of.

As for what use I am personally? You're not very good at working with others, are you. [nub l2p] Let me put it this way: if you're facing an atrocity eighty times your own mass or so, do you want to be the one getting hit by it, or would you rather its attention be focused on someone else entirely so you can go about inserting blades into its vulnerable ankle tendons? Because my solemn duty is to get hit by evil so you need not!
chosenfake: (♫ but they all add up)

[personal profile] chosenfake 2014-04-05 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah. I remember seeing people who looked kind of like him in Exsilium...

[How was he supposed to know he'd end up getting dragged into the world they were apparently all from?]

So they're called elves?
wilder: (cheee- no.)

[personal profile] wilder 2014-04-05 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Those were probably elves too. There were some around.

[It's okay Luke no one could've forsee it! But he'll nod]

Yeah, that's right. Where I'm from, elves were people who could live a long time and use magic. Wouldn't be surprised if the elves here are somewhat similar.

[Though...hopefully they're nicer.]
kingdomofsaints: <user name=mewtube site=livejournal.com> (Default)

yes of course

[personal profile] kingdomofsaints 2014-04-05 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[Good Vegeta. She's wondering if that name is fake, but doesn't press, obviously.]

I will see you another time, then. [And they go separate ways.]
chosenfake: (♫ they're screaming your name)

[personal profile] chosenfake 2014-04-05 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's giving Zelos kind of a quizzical look. Because... pretty much everyone can do that. Except Luke, apparently.]

Wait. So on your world, someone who casts spells like Jade would have to be an elf?
wilder: (groooan)

[personal profile] wilder 2014-04-06 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Luke you failure. He shrugs]

Yeah, that's right. Or at least have some elven blood in you.

The question stings, and she has to focus to keep herself from wincing. It's only after she asks that she realizes how completely childish her inquiry is. They have their reasons, whatever or however strange they might be. All that should matter is her role, regardless of time or place.

Vindicator. Protector. Demon-slayer.

This is not the Azeroth she knows, but she's been called here to do battle with her sworn enemy. That is all that should matter, and it should not take the words of this woman to remind her of that duty.

She bows her head again. "I understand now. Thank you."
telaari: (this is the opposite of what I wanted)

[personal profile] telaari 2014-04-06 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
Vas' soaring mood is cut short as suddenly as it takes off. Perhaps if she was a head or two shorter, that friendly slap would land below her shoulders. Instead, it falls squarely on the base of her tail. She inhales sharply and tucks her tail firmly between her legs, uttering a curse in eredun.

"You- please do not do that."
telaari: (What no)

[personal profile] telaari 2014-04-06 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
She looks back to him, folding her arms in front of her chest.

"No, I mean... The Light." Well, this isn't the first person she's had to explain this to today, but it is starting to get a bit tedious. "The Holy Light of Creation. The Light of the Naaru. It gives shape to all things where Fel magic undoes them. You truly have not heard of it?"
seesbosscrotch: (bashful)

[personal profile] seesbosscrotch 2014-04-06 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
"Ah. Eh-heh." Mar grinned sheepishly, lifting a hand to the back of his head. "Sorry. Got carried away in the moment. I'll aim much higher next time."

It may be some solace to her, knowing that at least he realized he'd erred. He did have SOME grounding, as much as he might sometimes seem he was as unfamiliar with basic down-to-earth sense as the party members accompanying a bored priest.
wilder: (skeptical)

[personal profile] wilder 2014-04-06 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
He seems to consider, then shakes his head with a shrug. He'll be nice and leave out the stories of angels with their own brand of holy light- light that would be used to wipe out towns.

"Sorry. Never heard of that. Mana's thought to be what created everything where I'm from. Light's just one of the eight elements of mana."
