Ackham doesn't appear to be anywhere in sight, neither do any other Lightning riders for that matter. Perhaps they all want to make a dramatic entrance.

A bit off topic, but:

Yea, I'm now a Moving Target after my IC post.

<Does happy dance... you know, to keep moving>

Man, now I have to aim my shots better.

Speaking of people dropping out, any word from Tarantula?

Who are we waiting on now? EllyLamb? Tell her to get in gear!

she's on senior trip right now, sorry for not saying sooner.

I'm sorry I've been gone so long. My senior trip just happen to land in the wrong time, thats all. But I'm back now and with summer here I should be able to spend more time on the internet which is a good thing. Anyways, I just made my first post at the carshow. I'm going to talk to Jet before I introduce "Johnny" to the group but I don't want him to know who she really is, so Voorhees, please go along with that. Thanks. Anyways, I was kinda hopeing all/the majority of the EES would be in one place when I do introduce them to Johnny. If you guys are still split then, I'll probably just go with the group that has Sebastian in it since he's the leaderperson. Just to tell ya... I might have been a slow post-er but I haven't forgotten you all and do have some idea's up my sleave. Thanks for putting up with me.

Hey, RL comes first. I hope you had a great senior trip. Where did you go?

[edit]
I just read your IC post, sorry, but I just gotta say it...

...Elf women are too... fragile.

Where was your Senior trip to? At my school, it was just a day trip to Disneyland.

I remember my senior trip.
It was to the doctors office and the pharmacists office to nurse a bitch of a case of Chicken Pox

Well I'm not going on mine. I'm going to Europe for a couple weeks instead.

We went to Daytona beach for a day, Universal Studios for a day and Disneyland/world (whicheverone is in Orlando) for 3 days. I live in Illinois so it was a pretty long drive... 17 hours on a bus is enough to make you consider suicide. lol. But I had a really good time.

Yay now we can get started. You guys need to be thinking of who you want as your new leader I want you to all handle it IC after the carshow, because technically you still think he's you leader.

I sooooo wanna be the one to answer this.

(by the by, Luis is standing there by K-Bob and Jet currently)

"One of our boys got himself perished..."

Luis is there? I didn't know... I know I'm focusing on Jet a good bit, which is the way I'd planned, but I would have at least acknowledged Luis if I had known he was there. sorry.

I was waiting for some others to post before moving tothe next lietenant, so technically I'm there as you walk up. It's fine if you don't acknowledge me. He tries to keep a low profile, the arm band is only because of the recent death. Most folks might not know anything more than an assistant grease monkey, which is what he wants people to think they know.

Um the lightning riders don't have a color per se, they just have to have a yellow lightning bolt somewhere on thier person (gang ID TN 3 to know this 1 sucess needed, if you wonder if you character knows).

No points in Gang ID skill

Defaulting to Intelligence
07 05 03 01 woot, 1 success

I'm sorry this is taking so long between Samantha and Jet. I'm sure the rest of you are getting restless. I plan on wrapping it up pretty soon. I need to speak with Kiedo first about something than I'll get to moving on.

Ummm, I'll try Gang ID for a hundred, Alex.
K-Bob has the skill at 3, so:

That's a 17 on the open observe in detail test.

Observe what? Meava's car? checking for lightning riders? the crowd around her car? or did I miss it somewhere.

I'm scanning the crowd looking for people that might cause trouble (aside from ESS members)

Nikoli: You see various people in the crowd, some look like they'd just as soon kick you ass then say hello, some packing heat, mostly light pistols and such, but nothing out of the ordinary. Just your average 2064 crowd. ::as a GM side note, the lightning riders haven't arrived yet, and they're the only ones you really need to worry about...::

Thomas: Sorry I thought you were rolling to see if you knew thier colors, which you would have if thats what it was for. You see that judging from the way she carries herself she is either a gang members girlfriend or in a gang herself, but you just can't tell which, or what gang....

Well, you know that and I know that, but the Watchman don't know it just yet. Attacks can come from anywhere and he wouldn't be surprised to see some over-reaching gang banging punk try to make a play for something.

K-Bob is thinking of leaving Jet and his new found friend to go look for Xerrus, but is Tarantula still posting?

No he is not.

Well, that'll make him damn hard to find, won't it? So, are your intentions with this lovely elf girl... honorable?

Not even I know what I'm going to do next.

ok, I'm going to kill off sebastian now so you'll be leaderless for this meeting. It should make for a nice plot hook

I don't think it matters if your intentions with Samantha are honorable or not... hers obviously aren't. lol. And you guys are right... I think the fact that shes at this carshow at all proves that shes with a gang somehow... I'll be fun when she shows who she really is.

Voorhees: I just had an idea a moment ago... It seems that we're setting up a late night meeting after the show... well Johnny will show herself at this show (Just give me a little bit longer). I think it will be kinda interesting to go through with that meeting. It'll make everything a little more personal for our characters if we do and It might just be my opinion but I think Jet might have a few words to say to her after the show.... lol Anyways, Samantha's going to break off from ya as soon as we either set up a meeting or not to get onto "bigger" things.

Damn... The mood's changing....

Yeah, all my writting eventually turns dark somehow, but it was a death scene so it couldn't be cheery.

Hhmmm K-bob's response is not a contengincy I had planned for. I didn't mean for the team to think the lightning riders did it. If tarantula doesn't get in touch with me soon (I PMed him yesterday) then I'll have to kill him off to keep up what speed we do have, effectively reducing my well laid plans to smoldering ash. But that's whats so spicy about roleplaying, so all it can do is turn this into a more hooky storyline.

Hehehe. Well if it's war we think they want, it's war we think they'll get.

I feel K-Bob's reaction fits with his background, but if I need to soften it up some, let me know - Luis could likely talk some sense into the boy.

I was planning on Jet asking him to not jump to conclusions.

OK, OK - but it will take awhile for this hothead to cool down. You did know that he was going to propose a mutiny of sorts later tonight at the bar. He wants blood for Dek, still not believing it was a fair race or outcome.

Still around. Exams are evil. Posted in the thread.

Gang fight, West Side Story style.
Oh crap, I forgot to take dance as a skill.

K-Bob's probably going to say some nasty things, please try not to kill him.

Ha, oh man I hate West Side Story.

D'oh

Fixed

@Voorhees
I assume you mean Jet heads to where K-Bob indacated his bike was parked...
Otherwise my next IC post will be along the lines of...
...Jet is suprised to feel the barrel of the Manhunter pressed against the back of his neck...

Yeah, ok then, I did...

lol
Kiedo, please understand, the characters will be very hard to convincve that this was a true accident.

man.. I don't get online for a couple of days and everything changes on me... lol. oh well. Looks like Johnnys going to get blamed for more than shes worth. you guys have fun with that... but I'd like to know if were still going to have the introduction between the LR and the ESS or not?

Not today, Old Bean. You could still let Jet into Samantha's pants if you want.

lol, now there's an introduction that will smooth things out for at least one member of the team.

Indeed.
