Bonus points to anyone that manages to get Bel to sing~

Bonus points to anyone who makes Ósc-Wait, shit, he already did.

Also, sorry for the not-so-lengthy posts, busy with studies and all of that shit.
Yes, shit.
I don't even know what I want to be when I finish studying.
I'm fucked :^).

@Oak7ree Has Captain Stevens ever seen combat? I figure his badges and such should indicate as much....

This has nothing to do with the RP.
But Guardians of the Galaxy has such a good fucking soundtrack.
Also Moulin Rouge in it's entirety.
And I've watched Le Miserables today, 10/10.

@MegaOscarPwn GotG was great and I got the soundtrack free from a promotion. <3 Can't wait for the next one.

A lot of Broadway and other musicals are amazing. Wicked, for example. Or Mamma Mia -- then again, ABBA is good in general. PotC has a great soundtrack, and LotR. And the guy that did Star Wars and Harry Potter is a genius. Also Joe Hisaishi, who does a lot of Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki's films' songs. <3

@shylarah
I got the soundtrack free from Internet. Lol.
But yeah ABBA is amazing.
>The guy that did Star Wars.
>John Williams.

You're lucky I'm studying, cuz I'd ground you for not remembering him.

@MegaOscarPwn All I know is what he did, not his name. Honestly, I don't know a LOT of artists' names. Or the names of the songs. But I know the tunes. ^.^;;

A question: who made the soundtrack for Saving Private Ryan?

@shylarah He might or might not. Captain Stevens pre-Task Force service record concerning possible SAS commission and action in North Africa as a member of a long range desert group is classified information. He might have been in British service as a "guesting instructor for [BLANKED OUT]" and taken part in [BLANKED OUT] raids.

@Oak7ree not interested in his service record, jsut the things pinned to his shirt. I am not sure Bel would ahve had access to his records.

If he has and wears a badge/whatever taht indicates he's seen combat, I should change my post a little. But given that he's been in the army only a max of two years -- and closer to one, given he enlisted in 1940 and it is spring of 1942, and this doesn't account for /when/ in 1940 he enlisted, plus training, plus officer training, plus the program that gave him his powers, plus the months of training us? I'm not sure he had much time to do any actual combat things.

Also that's funny. A record of 25 minutes, which is likely around the level of Olympic athletes...and then a bunch of folks who are /not/ physically enhanced. Odds of breaking it?

Bel; Yeah, no, that's not happening.

Izkry: ...aside from the fact that superhuman speed, strength, and endurance can't be removed, using powers for the run is rather cheating, no? o.o

Bel: *slight nod*

That said she probably has...let's see, six miles, average run time for a mile something like 7-9 minutes for a middle schooler (hey, it's what I remember!), so that's 42-54 minutes, add in that she's got longer legs and is in better shape than most of them, take away that she has gear and a slope...her time is probably in the 40-50 minute range. ^.^

lol maria's probably taking 2 hours every single run lets be real

@shylarah David became a member of the Army in January 1940. He finished basic training a few months later with excellent marks, and was recommemded for promotion and enrolled to the officer school, finishing as second lieutenant. Later that year, he was taken in by the SRPD, and put through trials and experiments. That lasted about two months. The time is early December, when the program is finished.

To my eyes, that leaves about eleven to twelve months to see some combat before the Task Force, as it was formed in December 1941. It has been about two months since the training started.

And I gave the prize to encourage the unit to strive them harder. Twenty-five minutes can be an impossibility for them, but that doesn't rule them out to try harder. Sometimes, soldiers can be encouraged by incentives to perform. Medals, day offs, recommendations and other rewards can be effective to boost performance.

@Oak7ree ...well I guess an impossible prize might motivate some.

Anyhow, if he has combat pins I'll modify my post...in the morning. X.x

@shylarah Or the siblings could just ask David, if he has been in combat, as he doesn't wear any combat pins day-to-day.

Edit: For example, when I was serving in the Finnish Defence Forces a few years ago, I took part in a garrison-wide orienteering race. While I didn't have much hope of winning any prizes, I liked the experience and tried my best, as there was the competitive element in the race. A five kilometre track took me about fifty minutes to complete, but it was fun.

Well, good shit the spic can control liquids.
He can make his blood flow faster.
AKA More adrenaline.
AKA More energy.
AKA Fast as fuck boi.

@Oak7ree Yeah, but were you competing against an olypian athlete? They're a different tier, and are trained to push their bodies to the very limit of human capability. I've only found competition fun for the sake of competition when there's a chance, even a small one, of winning, and when the winner isn't predetermined. For example, I'd have fun running the mile at school even though I never came close to winning because I was challenging myself. I'd have fun in shorter races because of that and I might even win (relays were really fun).
There wasn't even a prize. But if someone had said "fastest guy gets the prize...but you also have to beat the olympic record" I would have been annoyed. Why offer a prize if there's no chance for getting it? *shrug* Just a mindset thing, I guess.

@ONL "No wait it was Oscar."
*cracks up* <3

@ONL@shylarah

Yeah, alright, that was a good one.
Finally he gets some recognition for being an ass.
But a funny ass.
Yes.
Best ass.

@shylarah@MegaOscarPwn Well he's going to be a late ass once Anton gets to the top of the mountain ^^

@ONL
Yeah.
He's gonna be a late ass.
The late ass you're gonna be watching while he sprints up and wins the race.
That tight, spanish and late ass.
Mhm.
