Comrade? I'll have you know I was built for the American military. I'm not some worn out Russian Commie robot! It says "Made in the USA" on my bottom thruster casing.Woah, where'd that come from?

Well um. Thank you, friend. *Cough*Comrade*Cough*

Posted, one more crazy guy to throw into the fray

Suddenly across the country The Fox's enclave senses tingle.

And then Fox bites out his throat.

I found the relevant post, by the way. Enjoy as you wish.

"Goodie! Maybe I won't kill you."

"What?"

Fox sprung off of the floor and into Miguel before he could react. Within seconds, Fox had thrust his face towards Miguel's neck and had bared his teeth. With no hesitation, the Lieutenant bit down on the taut, tense skin. His teeth pierced through the muscle with a visceral popping noise, slicing through skin and tissue while powered by the sheer brute strength of his jaws. Miguel was now trapped underneath Fox's armored self, writhing and squirming and screaming a gurgling shriek. Fox bit down further, until he felt his teeth break through even more layers of tissue to the pulsing jugular vein. Blood filled his mouth and he gagged while a Miguel's screams were reduced to a frothy gurgle. Fox severed the jugular with his mouth, quickly and violently. When he stood to admire his handiwork, Miguel's mouth and neck were covered in bubbly blood.

"What the fuck!" Miguel wheezed weakly. He raised his hand to try and grab onto Fox's pants, but the Lieutenant smacked it away with his wrist bracer. Then he brought his armored foot down to smash Miguel's forearm into tiny pieces. The bone crunched as it gave way, and Miguel gurgled in pain again. His mouth was filling with blood.

"Sorry, man. You picked the wrong traitor to fuck with."

Fox then proceeded to collect his things and leave. Miguel bled to death an hour later, staring at the ceiling in the vain hope that someone would find him. Nobody ever did.

I have posted!

Note: Phoenix is actually a Legion controlled city. I am unsure what Legion policy is on ghouls, but it does seem strange that they'd let them set up their own little sanctuary in the middle of their territory, yeah?

Thought you were talking to me, as I said the group of Enclave soldiers I was with was called Phoenix Squadron.
Do I need to explain why they call themselves that to anyone?

Legion hates ghouls as much as the Master did; evolutionary rejects and abominations of the wastes.

No, I mean literally the American city of Phoenix is controlled by Legion forces. I was addressing Imagination. :P

Ghouls would probably be slaves or outcasted from the community

I got that after I typed about two lines explaining why I called them that.

ATTENTION PLAYERS

I'm ready to move this party on, but I don't want to cut conversations short. So, if you're interacting with someone, bring it to a natural end point in your next post, OR end it with THE LIGHTS IN THE ROOM DIMMING to interrupt whatever is going on.

I know Poe and Zero need to finish their exchange, and maybe some of you others. As soon as you guys finish, Tenpenny can get talking, and we can get moving to the road. Also, start thinking about what lines you want to take, we need to make that decision soon. That is all.

Ok, I've got the perfect way to segue into the lights shutting off and stopping Poe from wrecking Mr. Zero.

Before I post: Unknowable, you describe Mr. Zero as reading Poe's lips for the purposes of understanding him, but from terminals in the games Autophonetic Recorders are usually specialized software packages - I.E., robots, even sapient ones, typically don't have the capacity to read lips.

It doesn't affect the outcome of my post either way, and I don't actually mind that he's attempting to prevent future hacking. You could just say he has an Autophonetic Recorder and that's that, but it might be more likely that he's simply extrapolating lip movement to a programmed lexicon in his memory banks, which means he might have trouble understanding what people are saying at first until he's obtained sufficient field analysis to have perfected his heuristically acquired lip-reading talent.

Either way works (and I suppose there are other ways he could have such a skill as well) - just thought I would bring up the possibility, either way.

he's already acquired a bit of a database just from his bartering and trying to understand people with accents, especially those caused by mutations or injury. It's not really that good, though, so yeah, there will be a bit of a learning period.

Sounds great, good job guys. I'll get the house/Tenpenny thing up once I'm finished and the stage is set.

Yeah!

*Is still waiting for Scrap to answer her curious questions...*

Technically, Terminal, he never triggered the welder, he just got it ready and tried to intimidate Poe with it. Not a major problem, though.

And I go to work on a post still. The rest of you carry on as you are.

On an irrelevant note, would it be kosher to plug something here or would you be mad, Atomic?

Duly noted.

I didn't know there was anything left unanswered, my bad; last I heard Gutsy interjected as to Scrap's Master, was there another question after that?
