Thomas stared at the crutch girl as she walked away before turning to face the rain. She'd been somewhat strange, no doubt, and he couldn't really figure out her intentions. Not that he really needed to, though. If it had been important he'd hear about it sooner or later. And if he didn't hear about it, then that was fine too. Secrets are secrets for a reason, after all.

Thomas opened his umbrella and walked out into the rain, quickly losing himself in his thoughts. He was worried about Maribel's position in the student council considering everything that had happened, and he wanted to do something about it. Maybe he wasn't in the best position to do something, and maybe it wasn't his place to do so either, but it's not like he could just sit still and do nothing.

As he walked he noticed that he was passing by a hospital. He didn't usually - he must of missed a turn. He noted with interest that it was the hospital that the student council president had been admitted to. Thomas stood in the rain for a moment, thinking of whether or not to drop in. He had things to discuss with her but he wasn't entirely sure she was in the mood for it. Heck, he wasn't sure he was up for it, but it was something that had to be done one day or another.

Thomas looked up to the white building and sighed.
Better sooner than later.
Not like he had much better to do.

@KoL It's not like I don't care about the war, but I can't really do much about it from where I'm standing.

Blue Guild never got dissolved. You just got your asses kicked.

@TheWindel

k. That clears it up.

@Lord of Evil @ERode

Well, I noticed something so I felt compelled to remember you two of it.

Your characters are at the same side on the fight against the Green/White alliance. If you kill one another you are basically doing Chiyo's job for her.

@KoL

I mean, it's 2 avatars fighting each other, so I dunno if it matters so much. And I thought blue guild got dissolved? Or is the white guild just in our base?

@Lord of Evil
Yea, I'd imagine that the explosion thing would probably be unaffected, outside of the cooldown increasing insignificantly.

@ERode

Oh, and also, how many rounds has Finn taken by now? Feels like he'd be around halfway to death at this point.

Alright, so she wasn't as foolish as he'd previously thought - maybe she just had no idea who she was dealing with. He was even slower now, which could be a problem, but he still hadn't taken any damage at all. This was interesting, considering how many times she'd shot him, and how she was still shooting him. Although that just meant that she'd do something later. He reflexively struggled as she grabbed him and noted that he was definitely slower than before. But he couldn't really do anything about that at the moment.

Yes, she had him trapped, and it was certainly disadvantageous for him, but that didn't mean he couldn't attack. Blue Nova tensed his arms and let loose a Nova Burst from his trapped fist.
"I hope you're not getting too comfortable up here..." He said to the rogue.
It didn't do as much damage as his normal strikes but it was enough that it did something, and he could do it a lot. The Nova still wanted his arm free, but if she wasn't running away then he wasn't going to complain. He flexed his arms, trying to free some space to maneuver.
"Because I'm just getting started." He said.
With that he activated another nova burst from his trapped hand. Really, if she stayed like that then he could make this work after all.

@ERode My first ability doesn't have a casting time, does that mean it wouldn't be slowed down by your bullets?

Deep Ground Online (Hiatus)

Alright, guess I'll go make some changes. There we are.

Deep Ground Online (Hiatus)

Hm, couple of questions for @KoL before muh next paste.

1. Does activating Star's Protection count as one Action?

2. Would Star's Protection negate the effects of Mauve Night's slows? Would the slows still apply to Blue Nova? Or would Star's Protection be 'slowed', in that it's cooldown is increased and there's a delay for activation and deactivation, while Blue Nova himself is uneffected?

@ERode

I'm not a gm so I can't answer 1 but as for 2...

The shield blocks the bullets and I assumed that blocking them means he wouldn't get tagged by the slow since she has to hit them with the bullets to slow.

Deep Ground Online (Hiatus)

Was she underestimating him? She was level 3 which was fairly low, although Finn couldn't really say anything in that respect. Regardless, Finn had an opening here, and he wasn't about to let it go to waste.

As the bullets spun towards him, the Nova activated his blue shift. It didn't really matter whether he got hit right now, he was out for blood. He dashed forward, noticing that he hadn't taken any damage, which was odd considering he'd definitely taken the shots. No time to dwell on it, however. He grabbed the rogue by her armour, intent on slamming the rogue down somewhere. He noticed that he was slower than usual. Maybe an ability of hers? Nevermind. Too bad there wasn't a good wall when he needed one.
