Airship Pirates (Semi-open)

[Ultraman950]

"Patricia. Please."

She couldn't hide her excitement, but at the very least, she stopped hopping and managed to suppress a squee. She also remembered to put her uncock her gun and put it back on the table.

"Sorry! It's just I've never met a really real Automaton before! And then I just bump into one! In my engine room! What're the odds of that?!"

"Leo-01. I am a doll and servant. Was a doll and servant rather."

Isaac nodded thoughtfully. Some upper-class child's cast-off perhaps. Or a gift for a noble woman that never arrived. It didn't matter really, he was just curious as to where it had come from. It didn't seem to be too old, must have been a recent escapee. How on earth it got aboard the ship was anyone's guess. Isaac wondered what the captain would have to say about it.

"Sorry! It's just I've never met a really real Automaton before! And then I just bump into one! In my engine room! What're the odds of that?!" Patty said excitedly, and Isaac winced again. He was in no way prepared for all this noise. Still he did his best to look calm, and replied.
"I get it Pat, I do. But you'll end up scaring the poor thing. Try to be a little calmer? Please?"
The look in his eye clearly translated as "for the sake of my headache for the very least."

At which point Mario's bottle collided with Leo.

Isaac twisted around, glaring at him.

"Mario!"

 

[Ultraman950]

"I get it Pat, I do. But you'll end up scaring the poor thing. Try to be a little calmer? Please?"

"Sorry," Gidgit whispered, still wringing her hands and biting her lip in excitement. Her brain certainly wouldn't shut up, though.

Omigosh, an actual, living, thinking robot. I gotta ask him where he's from. No, Isaac told me to be quiet, and I might have to sleep outside again if I don't listen and DON'T THROW LIQUID AT THE ROBOT, YOU FOOL!

She silently glares daggers at Mario.

"Leo-01. I am a doll and servant. Was a doll and servant rather."

"Well I'm not normally one to speculate on the fetishes of my fellow, er former fellow, upper class, but, uh, ew." He said, he'd heard of some of the bizarre tastes other nobles had automatons crafted for, but this thing resembled a child, though he supposed it could have other functions, it had identified itself as a doll, and sex was what dolls were generally built for.

"Sorry! It's just I've never met a really real Automaton before! And then I just bump into one! In my engine room! What're the odds of that?!"

"Really? They're everywhere in Old Borealis, my family owned at least three servants," he said proudly, before remembering his situation, he was going to follow up with some apologetic, self-deprecating remark when Mario's bottle struck the machine.

He turned to face Mario, "I would prefer you didn't throw things in the engine room, especially not when the engine is under repair, now why don't you make yourself useful and fetch the captain, its up to him what we do with this," he said, glaring at him.

One thing you should be aware of LordDPS is in most RPs you should never explicitly state something happens to another character. Say what you intend to happen, then either the GM or the character's owner will react to it. Not too big of a deal this time since it is just a bottle.

Leo tried his hardest to not smile at Gidgit's antics, he wasn't used to most people obsessing over him. He was about to open his mouth to respond to the multitude of comments the crew was throwing his way, when the other thing that was thrown his way collided with his chest, shattering against him and soaking his suit.

Stumbling back a few steps from the unexpected impact, he reflexively rotated his arm around so that a blade was sticking from his sleeve. Trying to figure out where the attack came from. Quickly calming down though as the rest of them all chastised Mario.

 

[LordDPS]

"Hey, i thought he was an evil midget clown bot. It made perfect sense in context. And i might add i lost a perfectly good bottle of booze."
Mario looked at everyone assuredly. Before procuring another bottle of "Sky Shit" and taking a big gulp. "anyways he seems legit-like" Mario said looking at the knife protruding from Leo's arm painful memories flashing past which he tried to repress. with a grimace he said " Anyone notice the big mess on the floor? Someone better clean that up otherwise i might slip you see" pointing to the remnants of his previous bottle "anyway, you lot keep fondling midget-bot, i'ma go get drunk enough to brew some more of my shit oh and the Captain thing as well. Anyone care to join me?" .

(Sorry. Not trying to be difficult. Just trying to act how my char would act, hopefully won't happen again.)

 

[IFS]

"anyway, you lot keep fondling midget-bot, i'ma go get drunk enough to brew some more of my shit oh and the Captain thing as well. Anyone care to join me?"

Zachariah sighed, "I'll come with, if only to make sure you don't pass out before delivering the message."

He turned to the others, "Keep an eye on it, I don't like the look of that knife in its arm."

 

[Ultraman950]

"Really? They're everywhere in Old Borealis, my family owned at least three servants."

"Not in New Phoenix. You'd see one, maybe two every few months aboard a ship, and they'd never come off, and I wasn't allowed on one as a kid, so I never got to actually see one up close, let alone talk to one. It's like... like a... I dunno, something really awesome!"

"Keep an eye on it, I don't like the look of that knife in its arm."

"Oh, it's fine. Even if he did decide to attack we all have--oops," Gidgit said, patting the part of her belt she usually kept her pistol in. Finding it vacant, she picked it up off the table again and holstered it. "There we go. See? All safe now."

 

[Ruedyn]

Vlad was singing some ancient song as he steered his crappy Guppy through the air. Operation 'Remove the stinky ass bodies' was only about 20% completed, and the smell was starting to get very ripe. He hoped to find a city of some sort before night fall, but it didn't look that good.

The loud, mechanical squawking of Polly tore him from his thoughts. A pleasant, feminine voice erupted from the mechanical parrot, saying,
"Ship off the starboard side." He turned and looked, shaking a spyscope out of a dead imperials hand.

"I'll be damned. Think it's Imperial?" The birds response was to stare at him with it's cold neon blue eyes. He turned the wheel towards it, at full speed. He could feel the ship groaning at the effort, but it still made it quickly.

He grabbed a megaphone off another body, calling out to the ship. The first ones out were an Imperial and some kid, followed by a crowd.
"Excuse me, is there any booze aboard this ship or am I wasting my time? Wait, Polly no!" His yell was futile as She was already starting to land on the green haired one.

 

[Ultraman950]

"Excuse me, is there any booze aboard this ship or am I wasting my time? Wait, Polly no!"

Gidgit couldn't help but smile as the mechanical bird landed on her outstretched arm. "Hi again, Polly! Ain't seen you in a while. Is your wing doin' better?" she says, scratching under the bird's metal beak.

"Good morning, Captain!" she yelled up to the Guppy, waving with her non-bird-carrying hand. "I think there's still some rum in the stores."

 

[Ruedyn]

Spoiler: OOC

He jumped off the ship, but I edited it.

Vlad let loose a small smile,
"Gidgit, good to see you're making a living. So, this isn't an Imperial ship?" He asked, glancing about the crowd.

 

[Ultraman950]

"Gidgit, good to see you're making a living. So, this isn't an Imperial ship?"

"Not exactly, nope," Gidgit replied, smiling at her nickname being said. She never understood Isaac's insistence on calling her by her full first name so much, especially when nobody else did. It's not that she didn't like her name, it's just it seems much too formal for her tastes, and pirates are anything but formal, right?

Besides, her nickname reminded her of her grandmother, and who doesn't like their gramama?

Oops. My bad. ^^;

 

[Ruedyn]

Vlad decided to jump down, before anyone else had the chance to react. His hand was on his machete at his side, but otherwise he didn't seem hostile. His massive grin was a bit disconcerting, though.

"Good enough for me. Polly!" He whistled, and it flew to his shoulder.
"I fixed the wings, the hydraulic tube was leaking. Duct tape fixed that. The plasma conduit was shot as well, so I had to get a new one. Now she can be a flashlight!" as soon as he said the word, its' eyes shone brilliantly, the two circles becoming spotlights.
"Thanks for teaching me how to fix her, by the way. She'd be dead if it weren't for that bit of foresight. Flashlight." Pollies' eyes turned off.

Spoiler: OOC

No harm no foul, though I think I broke the rule of not controlling others characters. Also, I plan for Polly to be an NPC controlled by everyone.

 

[Fiad]

Ya you sorta did by having everyone come up.

Leo was ushered along with the others out onto the deck as they went to find out what the noise was. During the walk he swapped his arm around again, once more being just his hand. Well that was kinda lucky, took the focus off me at least. Still have to deal with the captain though.

 

[Ruedyn]

Spoiler: OOC

I don't plan on doing that again, just wanted to fix a mistake. Won't happen again... Have you guys thought about using quotes, people might find it useful.

 

[LordDPS]

"Fine then". Mario looked around for a bit. "you and me Mr Stiff Arse let's go" Mario walked away from the engine room walking around through a few decks to find the Captain,
Zach trailing behind. "so then matey boy, I've seen a few Military types in my short time on this shithole of a planet most of them treat my kind less then dirt. you seem to be no exception, but then again you're on this lovely bucket of rust and shit, Why?"

"so then matey boy, I've seen a few Military types in my short time on this shithole of a planet most of them treat my kind less then dirt. you seem to be no exception, but then again you're on this lovely bucket of rust and shit, Why?"

"We might treat you less like dirt if you weren't covered in so much of it," Zachariah replied, "and don't call me boy, as for why I'm on this ship I wanted to keep flying and the Navy had other plans, possibly involving cages I didn't hang around to find out."

He began to walk faster, the sooner they found the captain the sooner he would be done with Mario. He gritted his teeth, that attitudes not going to make you any allies here he reminded himself, "Alright Mario, what about you, why are you on this ship?"

 

[Ruedyn]

Vlad was starting to get the impression this wasn't everybody. He glanced around the crowd,
"Which one of you is the captain, or has he even shown up yet?" He took a minute to think.
"Never mind. Gidgit, can you tell me where this rum is?"

 

[Ultraman950]

"Never mind. Gidgit, can you tell me where this rum is?"

"I have an emergency stash in the engine room," she said, pointing back where she came from. "Help yourself, I'm not gonna drink it."

 

[Ruedyn]

Vlad hid his slight sadness from not having time to catch up with her, and being deprived of a potential hostage incase she was the only nice one aboard.

"Well, if your captain is fine with me roaming your ship and being around your engine room, I'll be off. Feel free to study the guppy, and land her. If you touch my gun I'll kill you though."
