In the Dark;

[thalassino]

And then that morning, some of the kidnapped in Somarium and some of the kidnapped in Vatheon found themselves again drawn to another location, another world, perhaps. They would wake up, scattered amongst the ruins, Vatheon architecture colliding with Somarium’s in a decrepit, mismatched way.

Those originating from Somarium might recognize the castle that had once been in the sky from the shadowy corridors. Those from Vatheon will surely see hints of the church in the columns and the curving doorways.

But regardless, it seems somehow they are now inside--and they are trapped there.

Opening doors leads to more shadowy corridors, monsters of rotting fish and shadowy, deadly noctaere. Some parts of the flooring are rotting as well, crumbling underneath the slightest of weight to reveal dark, cold, black water beneath.

Watch your step in this strange place--it seems to be hostile. Thankfully, it looks like you’ve got help, and from another world.

--

Welcome welcome Sommunists and Vatheonites to the crossover portion of this week!

As the signal post above indicates, everyone will be arriving in a mix-matched setting apart from Vatheon and Somarium which resembles a mash up of the Church and the Floating Castle, only now they’re trapped inside. All SFCs and Dreamberries appear to be missing as well. Everything will be face-to-face interaction here, but thankfully that’s not hard, as everyone is trapped in the same place. They will no longer be in Somarium or Vatheon, so you cannot post or tag things in game from 4/28 to 4/29. ICly that is how long the crossover will last, though backtagging is always acceptable and encouraged! Watch out for the monsters, and feel free to post and mingle around!

Please use this format to title your thread, so people can know what to tag:

Character Name | Game Played In | Open/Closed

More information can be found, again, at the plotting post, and questions can be asked here!

Most of all, have fun!

Robin | Somarium | Open

[staystraught]

[One half of the dynamic duo is still pretty dynamic, as Robin flings a an explosive at a rotting fish monster.]

You know, been meaning to ask-- if you take the 'du' off of 'duo,' can you just say I'm the dynamic o? The sole-o?

OMG WHAT WAS THAT TYPO.

[daughterofthemoonandsea]

[ A water whip shoots out of the dark and adds insult to injury, smacking the... ew, what IS that?! --in the face. Oh look you're staying straught, but maybe now isn't the Best Time for musing on word breakdown. ]

If you're asking, Sole-o has a better ring to it. If you like puns.

I SAW NOTHING.

[staystraught]

Got nothin' against 'em.

[Robin shoots a line from his grappling gun and swings up and over, meaning to grab Katara.]

Want to grab on so I can blow this place sky-high? If you're pretty sure there's no one else here.

E-X-C-E-L-L-E-N-T.

[daughterofthemoonandsea]

[ Well that settles that. And WOW that's a neat contraption you've got there. At his prompting she'll do as suggested, and put her arms around him. Last time she did this it was just a little embarrassing but she doesn't have an instant crush on this guy so. WE'RE COOL, BRO. LIFT AWAY. ]

Pretty sure that's a safe bet. I didn't see anyone else on my way here.

WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AT WAR WITH EURASIA. EASTASIA.

[staystraught]

Great. Hang on tight, now. I need my arm.

[He pulls a pair of earplugs out of his utility belt and, once they're all in place, throws his cape over Katara's head for eye protection, and throws a fanned-out handful of explosives.

He hangs on and buries his face in her shoulder while the explosion goes off.]

All systems still go?

WELL NOW WE HAVE SHIPPING WARS TO DEAL WITH.

[daughterofthemoonandsea]

Okay. [ She can totally do that. She's got strong arms all that bending. She's more worried about her weight tiring him out or something, but then Aang wasn't exactly built like this guy (yes she can kind of tell. .///.) and he never had any trouble carrying her around.



And okay. This? This is kinda badass. GEEZ DUDE WHO ARE YOU, EXACTLY?!

Wow that's a lot of fire. She might be holding on just a little tighter juuuust to make sure she doesn't suddenly lose her grip. And what does that mean? All systems? WELL HE MUST MEAN IS SHE OKAY. So. Just a bit dazed because wow intense. ] Yeah. I'm fine. Do you think that did it?

WARS WITHIN OUR OWN HEARTS sob.

[staystraught]

If it didn't, we'll know pretty soon.

[He makes sure he's got a good grip on her waist before activating the grappling gun, letting it pull them to the ceiling. He nods towards an alcove.]

when I swing, be ready to jump. If you know a way to immobilize them if they get up, get that ready, too.

THE ONES WITH THE WORST CASUALTIES.

[daughterofthemoonandsea]

[There's a nod, if he can see or feel it. Katara is ready. These kinds of acrobatics aren't new, though the helpful tools are. When he does make for the aclove she's ready, landing in a crouch and balancing on both hands. That water underneath the rotting floor? She'll draw on that as a source for her needs, but it's not the ones that Robin's weapons targeted that they have to worry about. Rather, there are some that have been drawn by the explosion that are now prowling into the hallway.

She summons up an eruption of water through the floor, knocking them back and blocking them out as it freezes in place, too high for them to scale.

No pun intended.

Looking at Robin again.] That will hold them long enough for us to get out of here, at the very least.

[thenameofscreen]

[ She knows that voice! SCORE. ]

Robin! [ Oh. SO RELIEVED TO SEE YOU. She's been looking EVERYWHERE. Have one excited alien hugging you. ] I am overjoyed to see you are undamaged! Have the fish monsters also given you the hard times?

[ PRIORITIES. ]

[staystraught]

[He's just going to pull an arm free and throw a not-Batarang out behind your back, blowing one up. nbd.]

Hard, yes. Impossible, no.

Want to blast a few for me?

[thenameofscreen]

[ Does that make it a birdarang? NBD at all. Star lets go and pulls back with a smile that's almost a grin. ]

The pleasure would be mine.

[ Annnnd so she pulls back and turns to face their smelly opponents, eyes and fists glowing. Do your thing, Rob, she's just going to go after the ones behind you with an aggressive volley of starbolts to start. ]

[staystraught]

[I DON'T KNOW the stupid show won't give it a name ;o;

And his thing he shall do! He pulls out his Escrima sticks and moves to his right, and quickly begins taking things down.]

Think 'pleasure' is subjective, here...

[thenameofscreen]

[BIRDARANG HAS A NICE RING? They also don't seem to think details are important like what happens to people during huge time skips.

And definitely subjective, but this is what she does on a day to day basis, and she'd be lying to say that her Tamaranean blood wasn't singing a little.] It is most certainly not theirs. [Right? What saggy fish beast wants to face these two in battle? brb eye-beaming one into pieces.

Ew.] Though their stench is most unpleasant. [Pausing in her blasting for just a moment to pinch her nose shut, her free hand blasts a few more. Will they be slowing down soon?]

/touches *w* Robins are my weakness

[knightime]

Dude, that sounds ten times levels of lame. The amount of uncool that just came out of your mouth basically filled the charts and broke them while you were at it.

[Dave cuts through one of the rotting fish monsters. Gross.] Do you always decide to butcher the English language with these biznasty word puns or is it just the heat of the moment?

c'mon and FEEL THE ASTER

[staystraught]

[You might want to duck, because he just flung a birdarang at a monster behind you. Of course, if you don't duck, his aim is good enough that it'll just pass over your shoulder, hit the monster, and explode, but it is entirely up to you.]

You just said 'biznasty' and I'm butchering the English language?

[savesthedance]

I'm just gonna go with sure. [Steve chuckles, firing a few shots at the monster, before glancing at Robin.]

Glad to see you're alright. Know about Starfire?

[staystraught]

I'll take it.

[Said while using a fish monster as a springboard and letting the two run into each other. The one gets another kick in the general tailbone area once he's right-side up, knocking them both down, and Robin reaches for a handful of Birdarangs.]

I'd like some confirmation, but I'm not too worried about her. She can fly; they can't.

[savesthedance]

I've seen you both in action. Know I shouldn't be worried. [But he did. He always did that, with his teams. Always. But he trusted them and their abilities.

And as he speaks, his shield comes off, throwing it just in time knock another one of the monsters into the ones Robin's already gotten down, getting it mixed up in the Birdarang's blast.]
