*Blake looks at commissar*

Blake: Its fine. I don't need this. If I ever pointed a gun at a human it would be myself. I'll be alright, but thanks for the offer.

Jake: I'll grab Amelia then meet you there, Cal.

*Jake turns to Thaddeus.*

Jake: I don't believe we met? I am Jake of New York, and you are?

*commissar shrugged and spun the pistol in his hand, sliding it into a coat holster*

Suit yourself. If you do want help fixing up the bar from any fights, least I can do is help.

*Cal smiles an shakes hands*
Cal: I'm Caladrius the Healer
*He nods to Jake*
Cal: Sure thing, just ah... knock on her door first okay?

*Grumble grumble hangover grumble*
*Holds head and starts looking through the T.V. for something to watch*
*Pain pain headache pain*

~

*Joalia smiles and happily gets led along after getting dressed and stuff*

~

*Amelia sighs and kisses Yarrick one more time before exiting the Baneblade*
*Yawns and starts walking to the kitchen for sustenance*

*Blake pats commissar on the shoulder*

Blake: Thanks. Now I'm going to go find someone to piss off I catch you later.

*Blake heads towards the lounge*

*grins and stretches with Verdai's suit*
*heavily scarred face is slightly hidden by a convenient fake beard*

Not bad, Drone Man. Now, where are the drones to finish the gig?


*Santiago enters the kitchen and nods greeting to anyone there*

Santi: (So, what do you want to eat?)



*Kara nods and draws her sword*

K: I'll kill Hoffman myself for this. That monster deserves to hang.

*Cal looks over at Denny*
Cal: You want something for the pain? That's got to be some hangover after what I saw last night


*Quetz nods to Santiago*
Quetz: Morning, you hungry?


*Mia sighs and nods*
Mia: I had hoped he would change... but he's proud, he's challenged my husband on multiple occa-
*She's interrupted as several Goatmen come out of a doorway from ahead. They point and shout then charge
Milo also charges, he gores one on his horns and beheads a second then lashes out a kick that snaps the third's neck. The last two look startled and start backing away in fear*
Milo: What's wrong? Never faced a StagLord before?!

*Thaddeus dips his head and shakes Jake's hand*
Thaddeus: A pleasure to meet you.
*Thaddeus flashes a brilliant smile*

Drone Man? Nah, that's you. My name's Wade.
*Gestures*
There's a drone controller in the suit, just clear your mind and bring them to you.
*Some drones float in*

*shrugged and headed to the bar and order a beer*

*Shakes head*
I drink for the pain.

Joal: (Perhaps some toast. Or whatever you feel like. Nothing too complicated.)
*Holds onto Santiago and pays little attention to anyone else*

*Jake nods.*

Jake: Nice to meet you too.

*He looks over at the approaching Amelia.*

Jake: Sadly I must go, take care friend.

*Jake walks up to Amelia.*

Jake to Amelia: Morning... I.. I'm ready to see Cal, is it still okay if you come with me?

*Cal nods and sighs*
Cal: I can understand that...I've gone through tough times too.. Well, Jake I'll be in my office when you're ready

*Thaddeus nods and begins reading a book silently*

*Amelia nods and smiles*
Amy: Of course Jake. Lead the way.

*Blake walks into the lounge and flops onto a couch*

Blake: Meff... (feth me I am tired...)

*maria*

*shrugs*
There's no perfect hangover cure... They all have aide effets.
Dulling pain is safest option of then all.

*marilania*
Morning santingo. Morning joella.

*maria*
Hello you two, everything going well?

*marilania sits reading quietly and plays with hair absent mindidly*

*giggles*

You got it, Wade. And uhh, I'll try.

*closes eyes and the drones shake slightly before bouncing off one another*
*gun drone fires and a shield drone blocks the hit in a flash of light*

This is harder when you have two voices telling you to blow up the drones, one more voice wants them to do donuts, and another one wants to put hats on the drones.



*Santiago kisses Joalia and tries making toast as best as he can one handed*

*Santiago turns to look at the M's*

Santi: Hello. I'm well, thank you for asking. How are you?


*Kara watches Milo kill the enemies in approval and hurls a spear of ice at one of the remaining ones*

K: Nehraa! Fall, enemies of Reinhardt!

*Leads 'Verdai' down to the teleporter, and teleports down into the room*
*Takes a bow and sweeps hands over to 'Verdai'*
And now presenting... the most sensible fictional superhero of all time... DRONE MAN!

*Jake then finds Cal, and sees Denny lying on the couch.*

Jake: Hey Cal I am ready. *Looks at Denny* Hey Denny, how you feeling? Do you want me to grab you a cup of water?

*Looks concerned.*

Idiots. I said I wanted the pain, not to dull it. Just mind your own fething business. Stupid royalty...
*Grumbles and looks over to Blake*
Whazzup?
*Looks at Jake and shakes head*
M'fine. Go do your thing Tiger...

~

*Joalia doesn't acknowledge Maril and keeps hugging Santiago*

~

*Amelia follows quietly*

*The Goatman falls and the last one turns to run but a soldier shoots him dead with a cross bow*
Milo: Nice work, this way.
*Milo holds aside a tapestry and allows the group to go through*
Milo: Lady Kara, please take the lead now.
*Waits until the last man goes through then takes up a rear guard as they run up a flight of stairs*


*Cal looks up and nods then leads the pair off to his office and gestures to the 2 comfy chairs infront of the desk before sitting down behind it*
Cal: Okay, sit down and explain what's wrong with you

*nods in greeting and the drones start shakily flying in circles above his head*

*imitating Verdai's voice as best he can* Hello. How is everyone today?


*Santiago grabs the toast and looks over at Joalia*

Santi: (What do you want on it? Peanut butter? Butter? Jam?)



*Kara nods and steps forwards*

K: This way, Mia.

*Kara shoots one last glance behind them before leading the group forwards*

*marilania*

Pretty good thankyou. Found a nice lake, great little swimming spot.

*maria*
Aye, not bad. Not too much paper work, and the med bay is quiet, not too many cases.

*maria*
Sure... Pain you have. Pain ye keep.

*notices drone man*
What's up with you.... Drone hero? Super drone?

*Grumbles at 'Verdai' and continues holding ice-pack against head*

~

Joal: (What is peanut butter?)
*Tilts head slightly*

*Walks over to Joalia, Marilania, and Santiago*
Hello, how are you lovely people doing on this lovely day?

*The staircase leads up to the roof where several nahair are lying about. The soldiers run around waking them then they start departing towards the southern front.
They make it several hundred yards from the castle before volleys of arrows start bringing them down.*
Mia: NO!
*One takes a arrow to the chest but continues flying as Milo, Mia and the soldiers look on in horror*

*The twins come out of their rooms and start walking over to the kitchen but freeze when they see "Wade". Morgan glares and Dria cowers behind him*

*Joalia tilts her head at 'Wade'*
Joal: You are not Spandex Man. Or Deadpool. You are the healer. Why are you dressed as him?

*marilania*

I recognise the voice, not the outfit though...
And that lake was a rather excellent spot. Thanks for the tip.

*maria*
Verdai...?
That's your voice I'm sure...
And lake... Ooh. Have to show me another time marlin.
