[Sits looking fairly stunned, with cheek glowing with handprint]
[Sighs and stands up] I tried to find something that wasn't jewellery or superficial, and I just confused everyone. [Rubs blood from under nose]

[Walks to bar and sits with Amelia] I'm just here to keep you on your stool, don't worry. Maybe in the morning I'll- [holds cloth to nose as it starts bleeding again] -show you the less esoteric thing I bought back. [Smiles]
[Tosses an old golden pirate coin to bartender]

I don't think so. You need to have a look at that nose of yours, it shouldn't still be bleeding, especially after that long trip here. Unless that was me. Then you'll be fine.

*Downs another drink*

And I'm not interested in you showing me anything else. You've pissed me off enough already.

The last acorn on Terra...
There was an ancient nation on Terra. Their name and methods have been lost to history, but their motto was "make the world green again". And they succeeded. From the year 21000 to 22550, Earth, or a portion of it at least, had trees and plants again. But they died out over time due to yet more resource exploitation. The seas boiled again, and it became the Terra we all know again.
I would like to try what they tried, again. Without the part where they almost triggered a nuclear winter.

*Pestilence runs into Verviedi's workshop and melts the nearest contraptions*

*HH runs in and grabs Pestilence by the scruff of the neck*

HH: Bugger off you, just...sleep in the sewer or something...

*Pushes Pestilence out of the workshop*

*Turns back to face Verviedi*

HH: Sorry about that. He was dropped as an immortal infant.

[Holds cloth] I'm fine. I prefer it from my nose, earlier it was from my eye... It's just since Benny gave me a drink in the jeep.

[Realises] That wasn't actually Benny.. That was a rather incompetent assassin.

*Sighs and pulls Yarrick back*

Okay, that doesn't help me worrying.

*Holds open his eyelids and looks*

Nothing there, open your mouth.

OOC Jeez, my eyes hurt after trying to type my latest piece for the CoF thread...You still in that BC?

[Mumbles] Mouth is for drinking... [Swigs drink] See?
[Sticks out black tongue]

*Blinks several times*

Holy feth...

*Stands Yarrick up and goes to leave bar*

*Gives him a look which tells him to shut up*

*Goes back and grabs a bottle of vodka*

*Points at card on bar*

*To barkeeper*

Put it on my tab.

*Hurries out of bar with Yarrick*

*Goes over to medic tent and pushes him into it*

*Looks at nearest medic*

I think he's been poisoned, could you please make sure he doesn't die?

*Look of raw hatred at Pestilence*
*Notices Yarrick's black tongue*
That does not look good. That looks like venom necrosis to me.

[Waves hand in sad manner at drink on end of bar]
I'm fine! Really! [Coughs] [Looks at blood sprayed onto hand]

Okay, I feel fine. And I've had worse.

[Stands up and stretches] I have some lost time to make up for, and things to do. Best thing to do is walk it off.

[Goes three paces and gently collapses]

*is sitting a corner looking at Yarrick/Amelia*
*eyes glow softly*

Ooc: I'm coming back to cof. I am just struggling to catch up.

*Steps over to Yarrick and barely manages to drag him onto an examination table*
Since when were you this heavy?!
*Grabs several probes and drops one into Yarrick's mouth*
*The probe floats down his throat*

*turns to Verviedi*
So. Shall I tell my cousin that you have returned to us? Your "death" hurt her terribly.

Ooc don t worry things have not moved too far and your base is not been attacked.

Please do. Tell her I'm better, now.
*Continues attempting to reverse the venom necrosis*

You realize she'll come when she learns that you are alive? She can be quite... persistent when she knows what she wants.

*Maria walks over*
What are you using v... ?
I'm a trained medical doctor under the sisterhood and fully qualified in trauma.

Nanites. I'm using nanites that burn the poison out of people's bodies.
*Looks at WK*
Then let her come. I have been dead for a long, long time. I want to see her again.

Nanites ... Like ai.... Heretical banned men of iron....
I'm Martian, I read what they did, what they built... Ai is banned for a reason..

*another Eldar teleports into the Room and drags Verviedi off into a side room*

You were much the same with your husband Marla. You have no grounds to complain about my cousin's conduct.

I'm maria, her older sister in fact taldeer. Marla is off wiping out orks planet by planet till she gets her husband back...
(Maria)

I wasn't referring to your sister. I was referring to how you'd act with YOUR future husband.

OOC:
Feth, forgot it was Maria instead of Marla

*Piling old photo's on a desk, all showing a half human half lion woman about 8 feet tall*

This is Bastet. She's the mother of both Aten and Anubis. I've pinned her location down to Croatia on earth-2. If any of you accompany me, there's more than a small chance of death. She is like nothing any of you have ever faced before

*tosses a duffel bag down at Thraka's feet*

I will not pass up the opportunity to get the spirit of a god. The genes it would give...

*shakes his head*

No. I cannot pass this up. It is worth the risk.

[Nods at Maria] Th-thank you- [Continues vomiting]
[Shivering] Emperor's t- teeth, this is foul. I'm s- sorry for being so undignified.

Maybe taldeer I would be but we don,g know what the fates decide and anyway. Don,t always assume humans of mixed genders only.

We long accepted same genders too. No one cares as long as you do your duty.

I'm a medic, ive got so much gak, blood and worse.... we are used to undignified and disgusting.
