*Marla sat drinking a coffee and keeps a eye on Hanna discreetly out of concern for her*

*Maria joins her and waves to anyone in the main room and goes to sit with her sister after greeting anyone new/present*

*Furia sighs and looks worried as no news come through and has no idea where thoet went*
*carves to try and calm self humming in her native tongue*

*Hanna quickly heads off to her room and curls up on her bed*

*She sits there shaking in fear*

Hanna: (What am I going to d-do?....)

*Iris and Horus lie out in the woods*
*Iris has fallen asleep after showing Horus how badly he was missed*

*Billy walks to the kitchen while BH goes outside to smoke his pipe*
Billy: Howdy.
*Nods to anyone there*

*The Avatar doesn't stop trying to cut Andraste in half for good*

*Hanna gets up after a while and starts walking around her room*

*She want's to eat but know she doesn't need to yet*

*She coughs once and reluctantly heads out of her room towards the kitchen*

*Athan stares blankly into the distance through the slits of his techno-barbaraian helm.*

*He wonders what that fellow in the golden armor is up to, out there among the stars, and why he left the poor souls to die on Mt. Ararat.*

*Billy waves to Hanna*
Billy: Howdy!

*Hanna looks at Billy waves quickly then grabs a cup of water*

*She then downs it refills it and starts to head back to her room*

*Marinalia heads out and goes off to main room and waves to anyone present*
*notices billy and has a thought*

Umm.. Billy?
Hey, kinda situation. Morgan or Gharn are planning to go off looking for Morri and cal, maybe both of em. Its too dangerous to do alone. Have a chat with em? Maybe find em some help?

...

*Marla and Maria waves to Marlin cheerfully*
*Maria*
You manage to break Morgan Marlin? Keeping busy eh.
*Teases her daughter*

*Marinalia*
Hey! And no... Mum! Unfair...

...

*Furia is sat waiting about for news as tracking thoeth is nigh impossible, aka teleporting*
*Furia looks about at strangers and people she not know*
(this place busy. So many different people. What kind of thing brings all these strangers from many halls together )

Ooc headed out soon, may make one pr two posts and then have to drive or make one last one before I have to be busy after driving.

*Billy shakes his head and frowns*
Billy: Naw, can't do that. They ain't goin' anywhere, not without someone watchin' their backs. Lucky fer you, and them I'm bored and need some exercise.
*He stands up and claps Maril on the shoulder*
Billy: I'll make y' a deal, you keep an eye on Dria, I'll keep an eye on them boys when we all head out t'do gak.
*He grins*
Billy: There ain't no stoppin' 'em, but I'll keep 'em safe Maril

*Marinalia*

Deal. Il make sure Diras alright if you keep the boys safe out in the wilds.
Thanks, as my mother has teased... I have a ... Vested interest in one of em. *sighs as Maria subtle as a brick there *

Not I don,t... Just its dangerous out there, even for them.

*Billy nods*
Billy: I been lookin' t'get out there and help somehow. Guess this is th' kick in th' pants I needed. I'll get Black Hawk and talk t'the boys about this. Thanks fer askin' me Maril.
*Walks out of the kitchen to go to exactly what he just said*

*Furia listens carefully and considers her options on searching vs waiting for info*

...

*Marinalia*
I'm sure they will not refuse the help. Just wanna see em home safe.

*Roland goes off into the woods after eating, and scouts the perimeter.*

---
*Zoey smokes a blunt in front of the base.*

---
*Everyone else does what they were doing.*

*Billy spots Zoey while looking for Black Hawk and grins at her*
Billy: Hey Z-zzzoey. (Almost said Z but remembered and corrected himself) Me an' a couple others were gonna go on a possible rescue mission, depends on what's goin' on out there. Two o' my best friends went out there with no dang plan, now me and a coupla others are gonna go after 'em. You want in? O you just gonna get high?
*Grins*


*Iris and Horus find a stream to wash off in and do so before starting to head back*

*Furia heads up and wonders what is going on and aproaches billy/zoe/whoever about*

*has heavy accent, n English is least passable ish now spoken to a basic level anyway though she cannot read or write*

Hello... You go search for people? Hunter, track...
Thoeth, he look for daughter. Need clan... Wild too dangerous.
Maybe find...

...

*Marinalia and the family sit in main area talking and wondering about what might happen in future. *

*Billy shrugs*
Billy: Sure I guess you can tag along. Though bein' honest here, I don't think yer gonna wind up a better tracker then my best bud. He's been tracking since he was a kid, and that was a long long time ago.
*He grins and mutters under his breath*
Billy: In a Galaxy far away... heh...

*Furia nods and eases up abit*
Thank...thankyou. .. *frowns slightly* find daughter... Care not. Find Thoeth, Calluna...

Furia, of Northern Clans.

Long... Time? Star ages? Story matter not star age.
*kinda unsure how to greet the various cultures here as so many different ones and groups about*

*Billy thinks for a moment, trying to decipher Furia*
Billy: Er... Gotcha, find Calluna or Thoth.
*He chuckles*
Billy: Star age? Y'mean moon cycles? My buddy's got a few hundred thousand o' those under his belt

*Furia nods*
Star ages.. .. Yes... Find daughter to.. Thoeth look, but I know no new since arrive.

*relises and blinks slightly at sheer age*
Man cannot be.... Too old.. Too old for known kind... Not even mage live so long....

*Athan rises in the corner and cracks his back, his weary bones groaning in reply*

*Looks around the room and marvels at the throngs of avatars lost in conversation*

What have I stumbled upon?

Ooc welcome.

I'm not ignoring ya. More just about to go sleep.
Time zones can be a pain.

*Billy grins at Furia*
Billy: Yer lookin' at a man prob'ly older than yer civilization. I am over 30,000 years old. It's a little thing called 'Immortality'
*Billy the Kid (yes, that one.) looks over at Aetare*
Billy: Well, who we got here?

*Athan shakes his head and runs his hand through his wiry hair, cursing his own foolishness*

"Not sure what you meant by OOC. Meant' no offense m'lords."

OOC: OOC stands for 'Out Of Character'. Use this when YOU want to speak to us as people, instead of having our characters converse.
BIC stands for 'Back In Character' use this to clarify when you're done talking to the rest of us like this.
BIC

*Billy frowns*
Billy: What? Er... Don't worry about it fella. I'm William Bonney, though most folks just call me Billy. Who're you?

OOC: I know what they mean I was trying not to break the whole vibe sorry BIC

*Beads of sweat coalesce on Athan's brow as he feels the comforting weight of his bolter against the small of his back*

Athan: Errr.... I'm just a some fool who's a long way from home. You can call me Athan. It's a pleasure to meet you... friend.

*extends a Power-armored hand*

*The short cowboy shakes hands and grins*
Billy: Yer not the only one. Pleased t'meetcha!
*A tall broad shouldered Native American man walks over*
Black Hawk: Billy? What's going on? I heard you wanted me for something?
*Billy turns and nods*
Billy: Yep, I'm takin' Morgan and Gharn out t'find Morgan's 'rents. You comin'?
*Black Hawk nods*
BH: Certainly. I'll grab my things.
*Black Hawk nods politely to Aetare before walking away*
*Billy turns back to Aetare.*
Billy: That's Black Hawk, m'best bud. So, whatchu doin' out here anyways? Y'said y'were a long way from home yeah?


OOC: No worries, we use them fairly often, so don't feel like you don't have to

*Athan watches Black Hawk depart and smiles softly*
Athan: Nice to meet you too...
*Athan looks back to Billy, fiddling with his tattered armor all the while*
Athan: I've just been jumping from place to place looking for a little closure and a place to lay my head... home is a lifetime away.
*A sad smile plays across the warrior's lips, and his eyes fall on the cowboy*
Athan: Where do you hail from, 'gunslinger'?
*Athan allows himself a brief chuckle*

*Billy shrugs*
Billy: He's just busy. I'm sure he'll talk t'yah later.
*He eyes Aetare curiously*
Billy: Closure huh? Well I'll not pry. As fer me, I'm from Earth originally, though the Imperium insists on callin' it Terra for some reason. I've not seen Earth in a long long time though... Musta been a couple millennia at least...

*Athan nods in agreement*
Athan: I much preferred things the old way myself. The universe is a little too grim and a little too dark for me these days.
*Athan trails off wistfully*
Athan: But here we stand.
*Athan shakes himself back to attentiveness*
Athan: Are things on 'Earth' really like they appear in those 'Westerns' I've seen?
