The Uncanny X-Men: The Next Evolution

<Snipped quote by Heathen>

Speaking of not posting things, when are you going to post on the Wiccan/Hulkling RP anyways?!

@DrewVonAwesome

Girl, you really trying to talk about another RP on this thread?

The Uncanny X-Men: The Next Evolution

Sometimes.

I dream about cheese.

@Sep

Oh sweetie don't. Don't be that guy. You're better than that. We have better ways of striking up conversation. Like how Wraith probably is a secret break dancer. Or how Hillan tried ballet when he was younger and was kicked out snapping "panty shots". These are all wonderful topics to discuss and explore.

I've been sick for the last couple of days, and I usually spend at least twelve-fourteen hours a day at work. I used to be able to get all my roleplaying time while being stuck at my cubicle while being technically free, but now that my workplace server has blocked this site, I'm getting little to no time to manage writing at a somewhat decent pace anymore.

If you guys need to go ahead without me, then by all means do so, I'll prefer not to hold anyone back.

@Garden Gnome

Oh my old job did that too! Oddly enough I could get around it with Incognito at first. And then I just started pulling up stuff on my phone and writing up posts on Word on the computer. Which actually worked out better for me since it would just look like I was working lol

The Uncanny X-Men: The Next Evolution

Devil's advocate here, it WAS a holiday recently as well, which means that most people were probably busy with things, even if you didn't celebrate the holiday. So I think some leeway is a given in this instance. However, yes, we should be seeing some writings posted.

@FantasyChic

I personally try to hold Hillan to a higher standard (even though he will undercut with a joke or somehow undermine the statement), being a long time RPer with him, friend, and with him being one of the GM's. And, especially being in a group with no activity, just the simple act of spurring them on. The post may not be done, of course. But for no activity at all, I think there's less of an excuse for that.

(Of course I would like to state that this isn't a "thing" where I want to come off on a tirade, but my main point is that the silence is enervating, to say the least)

The Uncanny X-Men: The Next Evolution

<Snipped quote by Stein>

I never did mention us actually writing anything, though. :^ )

@Hillan

Well then, I'm also confused about that because if anything isn't written then why talk about writing when you could....I don't know, write?

I'm just saying, this is how shit dies out

The Uncanny X-Men: The Next Evolution

<Snipped quote by Lord Wraith>

He is. And been master schemin', too. Our collab should be done in the next couple of days.

Probably.

@Hillan

Stop that.

Why is everyone doing big chunks? If you've got a sizable portion done, just post it so we can at least see progress and activity.

What you have left to do arguably shouldn't change what you have done so, just post some of it. (This isn't necessarily directed at Hilla but everyone.)

Fuckin post. Fuckin werk like the category is: Executive Realness

The Uncanny X-Men: The Next Evolution

@Lord Wraith Well what about your group? or Hillan's? You're both in separate ones.

@FantasyChic

Oooo girl, someone hasn't been reading those IC posts

The Uncanny X-Men: The Next Evolution

You all are awful with all this quiet and whatnot. The worst.

This has been a Stein PSA

The Uncanny X-Men: The Next Evolution

There, that should be a lil activity to get the juices flowing back in here.

XoXo

'So this is what impudent looks like,' Llavi thought to himself as Darren took off before he had a chance to react. Unbridled irritation nettled him as he tried to focus on his task at hand. Unfortunately, the anger strengthened his Ichor, making it that much harder to clear his head.

He didn't have much time to think as an upended trash can came his way. An Ichor-coated arm met the trash can as Llavi swatted it away and turned to Luke. "I will kill him myself when this simulation is over," he told him, side-stepping to avoid another piece of flung debris. "But we have got to move."

Their chances didn't seem good to Llavi, but submission was not an option he entertained. "Can you create an opening for me? Something to pause this?" Llavi planted his feet and delivered a swift blow to incoming mailbox, deflecting it. "I'm going to see if I can't get the luchador to come our way a little."

"Oh yeah, keep him in front of this building and all that." Luke muttered with an annoyed tone as he watched the Inflating Boy run up a wire escape. "He probably doesn't even have the guts to jump. Not that he's short guts..." Luke added with a mumble.

"_{None of this will stop the friggin' Juggernaut anyways...}" Luke muttered as he placed both hands out in front of him. A flash of light exploded from his hands as he attempted to draw the Juggernaut's attention away from Llavi. The hulking man barreled forward, temporarily blinded as he smashed through a lamp post.

"C'mon!" Luke taunted as he fired another blinding blast.

"So, we should just sit and twiddle our thumbs around because things got tough?," Llavi shot back as he ventured forward. He was almost too late to shield his eyes from the resulting explosion of light. Even being farther away, he didn't want to take any chances. As the Juggernaut swerved to hit the light pole, momentarily disoriented, Llavi darted forward a few meters, putting a little distance betweting a little distance between him and Luke. His Ichor began to well again, flowing up his arms as he planted his feet.

Llavi extended his hands parallel (sp?) to the ground, letting the Ichor from his Hot Spots and gravity do the work as he concentrated on the rapid secretion of his Oya's Blood. The Ichor halted in midair, collecting and gathering. He kept an eye on Luke and the Juggernaut, praying for just a bit more time. They didn't have much.

There weren't the best team for this match up, Luke knew it, Llavi knew and Darren hopefully knew it as well. Luke had studied the X-Men's history, he knew that the Juggernaut could only be defeated by either magic or psionics. Both the team was rather lacking on. So the best they could hope for was 'Participation Marks'.

Gambit was a dick.

Focussing a blast of laser from his hands, Luke struck Cain's helmet attempting to knock it off. At the very least, Llavi or Darren could suffocate him. Losing himself in looking around, Luke looked up to see the Juggernaut suddenly on top of him as the giant sent him flying through the simulated streets of New York.

As Luke sailed past him Llavi cursed himself for focusing on the Ick Ball before him. He launched it now, seeing it as the perfect opportunity. Winding back his fist, The Ichor coated his fist once more, then another, greating a small glove of sorts. He directed a 3-Hit combo at the sphere, stopping the first two just shy of the thing and using the third and most powerful punch to send it toward the Juggernaut as a deceptively fast speed. He man had just enough time to turn around and put his arms of to shield himself. The ball exploded on impact covering the Juggernaut in the black tar-like substance. Llavi glanced back to where Luke had been flung. He had to buy them some time.

External sentient control of his Ichor became more challenging the further it was from his body, but Llavi pushed his limit, focusing on the Juggernauts face. It was a simple command really, but it wore on Llavi. The ichor hardened around the Juggernaut's face, the bits of Ichor on the mask also pooling to the eyes. The Juggernaut thrashed around more, his sight completely hindered for the time being. Llavi turned and darted for Luke, helping him up.

"We may not be able to win, but let's at least go out with grace. I'm sorry I could not stop him before he was on you," Llavi apologized.
