In an effort to move things along, we're going to be moving some of you over to "case" style posting. If you've been in one of Lady A's RPs, you are doubtless familiar with this. Counters are reset for each group on a case at the time of the GM's update. You are given information and an end goal. You work in a group on a collab (or individually, if it's a solo case), PMing the GM for rolls as you need them. Not everyone will be assigned to a case this round - cases are listed below...
If you're on a case, make sure to send me a PM with the collabs. I am not starting the collabs - that's on you guys.
Case Name: When In Doubt, Go to the Library!
Members: Folly, Fairfax, Seraphina, Thalia, Lilith
Length: 7 Days (Roll requests stop on day 6)
Recruiting: Why the hell not?
Goal: Find whatever information is to be had in the library and come up with a plan
Case Name: Angel With a Shotgun
Members: Jessica
Length: 7 Days (Roll requests stop on day 6)
Recruiting: Probably best if you don't...O.O
Goal: Get the hell out of dodge
Fergus
Location: O.M.E.N. Panic Room - O.M.E.N Headquarters - Washington D.C.
Interacting With: Bronwyn Calliban @FantasyChic, Alec Fletcher @Peridot
The O.M.E.N. agents stared at Alec for a moment, their plane still somewhere in the air over Wisconsin. They were expressionless and from their earlier actions, it didn't seem like their intentions were friendly. But then, the female agent cracked a smile and chuckled, the others following suit. "We learned a lot of things at Ghost School," the agent replied. "What did they teach you at the academy, though? Arts and crafts?"
"You know, I did hear that the FBI mandates the use of safety scissors..." one of the other agents chimed in. The mood had lightened considerably until the video conference connection initiated. Everyone at the O.M.E.N. facility in the meeting at Washington D.C. could see and hear Alec. He could see and hear them as well. The video call began just in time for Alec to hear Bronwyn share her information about Hel - but what did this have to do with Agent Murphy?
Back in D.C., Irwin nodded after Bronwyn said her piece. Yet rather than everyone else in the room accepting what she had said, Agent Shasta Zacharia of MI13 rose to her feet. "Miss Calliban, what do you propose we do?" Agent Zacharia asked. There was no malice, snark, or disrespect in her voice. It was one thing to be told information about a foe, but they needed more than that - they needed a strategy.
"Aren't you lot just going to fire a nuke at her and call it a day?" Fergus groaned. He was getting a bit bored with all of the formality. He preferred to get his hands dirty and his information to be given as fast as possible. All of the bureaucratic etiquette was cramping his style. He then gave a cheerful wave to Alec through one of the monitors, as if they had been life long friends.
"Charming as ever, Fergus," Agent Zacharia said lightly.
"I think ridiculous is the more appropriate choice of words." On one of the many monitors in the room - and for Alec, on the bottom corner of his screen - was MI13 Agent Jade Cornish. She was bloodied and bruised, standing outside what appeared to be a train station. It wasn't normal for O.M.E.N. to request help from outside agencies - let alone the Brits. Whatever was going on, they were scared shitless.
Robin Ramírez & Aloise Zamora
Location: Room 307 - Hunter Hotel, Omaha, Nebraska
Interacting With: Mariana Garcia @Nallore
Aloise managed to hold her poker face well as she considered Mariana's request. She honestly wasn't the type to betray or defect - her stunt earlier that day had been a surprise to most, herself included. But it was true - Hel had killed needlessly. Yet she was a needed poison to get rid of a far greater threat, one that slaughtered without any remorse or consideration on a far larger scale. If this was the price to save the world, then her morals could be compromised slightly.
"Agreed," Aloise said simply. "And I think I know how to kill her...Her sword. She never lets it out of her sight. Always has it on her. Might be like an angel blade - their main weapon and the only thing that can kill them," Aloise suggested.
"So we just need to steal the sword of a Norse goddess...Great," Robin replied. The mission set out in front of them seemed to be a series of impossible tasks - but they'd be worth it in the end. However, she wasn't certain that three people could accomplish this on their own. There were a lot of variables, a lot of dangerous acts. It was very likely they wouldn't all make it out.
If she had to let Aloise die so that way Mariana could live, Robin already decided she'd make that call without hesitation.
"She's expecting us in the morning," Aloise then added. "She said she had business in D.C. tonight...Told me to go recruit for the cause."
