I'm still waiting for Sho to say something here so we can get started on trying to collaborate. If he doesn't say anything by tomorrow, I'll probably send him a PM.

Sapphire/Oswald is coming along, though somewhat slowly.

Once we're free to make posts again after the battles, I'm thinking of having Shiro go around making friends. He might want to chat up Oswald for some advice. He IS another sword and shield user, right?

Six fights down, six to go. The matches that remain are:

Oswald / Sapphire Marcus / Geni Jayden / Ineko Aurellius / Jack Gren / Indigo Ivan / Merlin If at all possible, I'd like a status report from each of these teams, if you haven't done so already within the last two pages of OOC.

Jayden/Ineko spar hasn't progressed at all. It appears Sixsmith is still busy.

Works for me. Oswald is a friendly enough guy, all in all, long as you ain't a douchenozzle.

We have started our fight but have not gotten far.

Aww, come on. Shiro's a sweetheart. No worries there.

Good :3. Maybe they can bond over the glorious classics. Or how smexy Oswald is with his...short...black hair and his...dull...brown.....eyes. Yeah. Picture of sexy manliness!

Me n' Lucius haven't started yet, but I plan on doing so relatively soon.

Uh, did somebody post Sei and Rakim's fight?

Sapphire and Oswald is coming, a bit slow but I think we're each thinking our moves through very carefully. It's probably about a third done.

Hey @Multi_Media_Man after the matches are done would you mind if Sapphire hit Oswald up for regular sparring sessions. He seems to need some help fighting fast agile opponents like her and she could use some pointers on dealing with slower armored adversaries.

Btw, the morning post for myself is up, as well as Kafka, as it was a collab. Should be at least a little bit of a funny read.

Go for it. He could use the help. And gee, Oswald seems to be a wee little bit popular. Two requests in one night? Please, please, I'm flattered! :P

Made some changes to the Team SIVI HQ's combo name section thing. Since I'm sitting on my hands waiting for Sixsmith.

Okay then. Keep in mind that I might institute an arbitrary deadline sometime soon, in the interests of moving on. @Tearstone, the Rakim/Seilber fight has not been posted, but I know that it is finished, so I counted it.

What game is it that you're semi-professional in? :O

Teflon? If Marcus needs a strong coating to withstand heat and stress for something, he could collaborate with Shiro. While he may not be as intellectual as Marcus, Shiro's familiar with weapons technology and things of that nature. Maybe try Cerakote.

What game is it that you're semi-professional in? :O

Probably World of Tanks.

Yeah that was fairly predictable wasn't it? It is indeed World of Tanks. As for the teflon coated shell, it is not the teflon that worries Marcus. He needs to figure out how to prevent the acid it contains from blowing up when it's fired. The stuff's not very stable (it has to be in order to melt tougher stuff like bones or concrete).

Those are not mutually exclusive :D

Anyway Marcus vs Geni is something I hope to make a lot of headway on tonight. Possibly another day before it's finished I think.

Alright, will be looking to get that posted up soon. Soon as I can get a hold of Brain again. I'm kind of waiting on him so that he can get whatever edits he's going to make done.

What, Marcus is looking to fabricate an acid/anti-Grimm tank round or something? xD I can see the Geneva/Chemical Weapons conventions screaming now..

The world of Remnant is a certified Death World. Despite access to morphing weapons technology, functional humanoid killbot drones, stable strong AI's (okay a prototype BUT on a human sized chassis), man portable rail cannons, networking technology, FUCKING MAGIC and enough resources to build a fleet of gravity defying aerial battleships there are a grand total of FOUR stable kingdoms in essentially postage stamp sized areas relative to the continents they are on. The only reason these kingdoms can even survive is due to natural barricades keeping the worst of the Grimm hordes out. That whole spiel from 'This Will Be The Day' where it is spelled out that this world needs a great defender? That the world is unforgiving? Not hyperbole. Given half the chance, the world of Remnant will cheerfully strangle you with your own guts, proceed to tear out your eyes and then skullfuck your corpse. As a result expect a lot more 'Warcrimes? What're those?' inventions if/when the situation calls for it. That said, I do feel the show actually did a poor job of actually showing just how truly dire that situation is. EDIT: I realise I forgot to answer your question: Yes. He's working on a fluoroantimonic acid round. For reference, this stuff will melt through glass like cotton candy, just like flesh, bone, steel, concrete, etc. It also releases highly toxic clouds of gas when it does so, which is nice. It's for other Datura to take out both the big guy and whatever smaller spawn it carries in one shot rather than the multiple incendiary rounds he had to use the last time. EDITEDIT: I just realised that I had the 100th IC post. Woo!

I have my morning post all ready. I just have to type it up. As in, it's on paper cause I found time at work to do it. *cough* And I'll get started on the Jayden-Ineko fight post tonight so we can get started!
