Alright men! We've got the rest of the day for R&R to celebrate our recent victories. Do NOT waste this opportunity to act like actual people. That is all men, have fun.
>>44046433
I suppose no...
>>44046413
Ok, if you say so- well, ehrm. So, do you... actually remember anything about yourself? Before being an assassin, there... was there a person? A family you had...
>>44046433
And, well, mhh, what is with the sergeant and you? He does a lot of weird comments, don't think I don't get it...
>>44046539
>Alice blinks a couple of times and groans audibly.
What comments exactly? I think I know what you're talking about.
....................
WHY.
>>44046565
It is exactly what you are thinking.
Does he...? For you?
Ugh, sorry, I am supposed to be a dialogus and can't fucking say two straight lines.
>>44046539
Well I... remember the Schola Progenium... I was 7... Dad had just passed away and there was nobody left for me to go with... I kind of remember the instructors, they were harsh but nothing compared with the Temple ones... all else is so vague... I think I had a Space Marine doll by then?
* Begins to wander around the base tinkering with a new servo skull.*
>>44046593
Oh, -that-? No actually, the Sergeant prefers Sisters honestly.
RSM Lawzom is simply of the opinion that I am mentally scarred and thus require a 'good hard dickin'' to set me straight. My words, not his....this time.RSM Lawzom is Gary btw.
>>44046598
Bloody hell...that's harsh. Like, really harsh.
>>44046598
I had a pair too. A golden one with blue pauldrons and a lion on it, and a yellow one with an heart there instead. Never knew what chapter they were from, though. I wonder where did they ended.
>>44046650
Ugh. I, well, it seems a bit harsh of a "treatment", isn't it?
>>44046689
He cares about me for some reason, in his own 'unique' way, I just wish he'd lay off the dicking jokes....
>>44046650
>>44046689
Oh I kind of remember the doll now... it was Blue, with a red fist on the pauldron, obviously a Crimson Fist. I called him Guardian. I remember hugging it up under my bed on my early years in the Schola... scared of the instructors.
>Takes a sip and smirks
I was so scared and lost by then.

You were supposed to drink if you didn't answer, or am I mistaken?

Oh, hello there Churchill. How goes the tinkering?
>>44046757
Well I thought I could skip the rule if I needed a gulp.
>>44046722
I...can't really compete with that, sure training is incredibly taxing, Praetorians have some of the highest Standards among the Guard Worlds, but I had my family to cheer me up when they were allowed to....
>sighs wistfully.
I'll never get to see mother or father again....
>>44046757
Nothing to be sorry for lass, it's not like it's upsetting or anything, just a bit strange.
You haven't done anything to upset me anyway, just worry me but we should get on with the questions eh?
Hit me.
>>44046777
>seems to think a bit, then, in all seriousness
No. it is a rule, isn't it?
>>44046801
... Why should I hurt you?
I mean, let me remove my gauntlet at least, but why would I hit you?!
>>44046834
Woah woah woah, I didn't mean it -that- way, I meant to ask me a question, similar to saying hit me in Blackjack.
Although you should remove the gauntlet anyway, it's a start, right?
>>44046834
>Giggles a bit, probably aided because of the amounts of alcohol already ingested.
She meant with a question.
Anyone else here?
>>44046854
But I asked you one already!
This game is so confusing...
>>44046769
*Looks up to see Fanner and burbles in a mild manner*
*"My work goes well Corporal. How goes yours?"*
>>44046875I'm here, unfortunately I'm not much of a conversationalist in this character.
>>44046883
You mean the one about Gary? Bah, that one doesn't count, too recent.
>>44046875In the Mess? Dolan SHOULD be....
>>44046883
Alright, alright, I'll ask.
Has there... ever been a target that made you doubt pulling the trigger?
>>44046918
Would... would a "yes" suffice?
>>44046940
Not if we want to actually make this a drinking game.
>>44046964
I am sorry. Let me drink then.
>>44046916AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Thinking of just having Hank barge in there but don't want to interrupt this.
>>44047009
>hands over the bottle
>>44047012He'll be stopped by the Guards but that doesn't mean Alice won't talk to him......hue.
>>44046900
Not bad, not bad, just getting a feel for the sort of place we have here.
>looks around slightly shiftily
Between you and me, what do you think of this whole business with the xenos and the inquisition and such? You've been fairly quiet about it so far.
Well, more than usual, anyway.
What about you Alice? Any target that made you doubt?
>>44047029
>drinks a bit, though maybe not much as LIX would have had.
>>44047034
>bashes head into table loudly
>>44047031WHY.
>>44047034
*Pauses and stares , letting out a few clicks.*
*"This priest was not aware of any xeno's other than those needing to be purged nor of the Inquisition's role in this battle. I have been too busy maintaining and upgrading equipment. Is there something amiss?"*
>>44047069
>Alice snatches the bottle from Amelia with shaking hands and takes a large gulp, but continues shaking.
N-next q-question.I think Lix knows OOC why Alice didn't answer, you were....maybe in the thread then?
>>44047121
It would be your turn.
>>44047121So far all the threads I've been I've played the role of:
-Eyeblind Genestealer.
-Lictor
-Virmanthras
-Delta-LIX
So if any of those wasn't there, I wasn't.
Alright alright, take it easy. I guess you ask now, Alice, and after Amelia and I answer it's all back to her.
>>44047135
A-alright then, something um...e-easy.
Have either o-of you ever had to fight someone, or -something- that a-actually made you scared?
>>44047174I think you MIGHT have, but anyway, it was the encounter with the Daemonette that ALMOST went beyond the point where one is executed.

>fumbles in his greatcoat pockets, finally pulls out a coin and flips it.1s Fanner tells him, 2s he doesn't.
>>44047175
All the time. All the time.
When I am not drunk, I mean, and even then... it is just that you are so scared, you channel it into murdering. It feels not so good as they say. But if you mean, a specific time I got scared, ehm. I don't know if you ever fought demons...
>>44047175
Plenty. I remember fighting a grlup of Genestealers a few hours ago onboard the inquisitor's ship...
I... I hate those things... they mind control you with their tongues!
>>44047192Yes, I was the daemonette there too. I know she scared the shit out of your character, but I don't remember her doubting if to shoot somebody or not./spoiler]

>>44047225
>Alice takes a sip of Alcohol at the mention of Daemons then again Genestealers and Mindcontrol.

Before the Praetorians got to the Penal Regiment. -The- Daemonette....I'm not sure it counts because it was psycic compulsion so...
>>44047289SPOILERS ANXNHGANJDIGB
>>44047289
So you did. Then you know it is probably the most frightening thing to fight... it takes the Astartes to get rid of them, no dice here.
>>44047289Then no. I wasn't. My last play before returning as the lictor on the Cadia saga was the eyeblind genestealer around FIELD KIT INSPECTION number 3 or so...
Whistles patiently.
>>44047330I feel you man
>>44047306
Y-yeah, I faced Bloodletters a-and....uh, D-Daemonettes, don't want to talk about i-it...
>>44047319Nah it was part of her Backstory, I was meaning if you were in thread while she was talking about it.
>Chuckles
Girls if you keep drinking like that you're just going ti hand me over the victory.
You go for it, Amelia.
>>44047330Well go up and talk to the door guards fucboi. She doesn't have any reasons to leave the room atm.
>>44047354I was, but I had to go and by the time I returned I had to fast-read everything. I remember reading that bit, but I don't fully remember it, I think it was implied that after the khornates some slaaneshi daemons tried to... do Alice?

Here. S-sorry. I should have not asked, probably...
>>44047095
>>44047213
>shiftiness intensifies
Alright, so the story so far is that back in the jungle, we found out that one of the other enginseers, you know, the one with the different coloured robes, was actually a xeno. Not only that, but the whole planet's filled with them, and he's their long-lost king after his brother nicked the throne. Anyway, fast forward a bit, techpriest's king of the xenos, and we get picked up by a big black ship that apparently belongs to the inquisitors. Inquisition sign Nyzart up as a xeno ambassador, we're taking orders from the big I, and everyone's feeling a bit odd about the whole affair.
Uh, I think that's the lot. Remember, if anyone asks you never heard it from me.sorry, you probably know all that ooc, just thought I'd make it official. If Fanner's not supposed to know any of that, retcon it.
>>44047396Yes, and got damned close, which why she was so against the Daemonic Book of Daemonic porn that may or may not have Daemons in it.
>>44047403
Thankfully not.....
>>44047412
>The senior guard eyes Hank with a displeased expression.

U-Uh um..excuse me..er..I need t-..um..t-talk to..UHH..
>>44047440
No, it's fine it's part of the game.
I'll just make it clear that it was also part of the mission to get me captured and I won't say anything more about it.
>>44047447
U-Um..well..uh..the..l-lieut..the..uh..lieutenant..
>>44047447
Oh. Well then...
>>44047465
Your turn I guess.
>>44047445Didn't actually know all of that, thanks.
*Pauses and clicks several more times as he processes the thought.*
*"Knew the other was not a proper priest but did not know he was a xeno. *Clicks* Dislike working with Xeno's. It is not my place to question the Inquisition. As much as I dislike Xeno's."*
The answer he gives sounds... even more mechanical than normal if that's possible.

Alright girls, I'll answer one more question then I need to disappear for a couple of minutes....you'll get a chuckle.

Really? People are "put off" by the fact I filled out 370 seconding forms. No, they don't let you do it in bulk.
>Continues fucking with the tau dataslates.

Alright Alice, fine, have it your own damn way. Just you make sure Private Hank gets treatment.
But next time we face down some daemons, I'd best see you shitting tiffany cufflinks and killing em as though they're flies, without a trace of panic!

>continues in a calmer voice
Hank, I have personally seen the universe try to kill you any number of times. Each time, even when you've been choking to death on the ground, the Emperor has decided that it's not your time. And if the Emperor himself has decided it, then you can be damn sure there's hope. It's a tough life we've got, for sure, but I damn well know you're tough enough.

No I bloody well do not, so start. Making. Fucking. Sense.

>>44048897
Take as much time as you need, apparently my evening is going to get worse for -some reason-.
I doubt I'll be the best company for a while.....
>collapses down onto a second bed and gently places the bottle on the floor.Jesus fuk Hank setting himself on fire was the exact opposite of my intentions like wow that ESCALATED SO QUICK they use it as an Elevator. Just so I know, Hank would have found a way to get himself messed up even if there wasn't Promethium right?
Well since none seems to have any business with me at all, I think I will go. Also because it is 3 am here. I had probably ruined this for everyone, especially Alice.
>>44049020No worries mate, cheers for sticking around as long as you did. And don't worry about Alice. Rome wasn't built in a day after all.
>>44048917
>>44048956
>that isn't helping
>if anything, it worsens his condition
>>44048966Yes.
Hank is so nervous and incompetent that he will usually mess up on everything that doesn't involve firing a gun in some way.
..This is also why I am no longer going to put him through so much shit because I feel bad OOC for my own character.
>>44049020Nobody has any business with me either, but you can still do your thing with worldbuilding. 3 AM is a good reason to leave though. I mean, I don't think half of what I've done has gone noticed tonight.
You didn't ruin anything though, this is the penal regiment, everything is always shit. Even if it gets a little better.

>>44048862
You want to go back to that, Hank? You want to go back to the fields, and the farm, and tell your kids and your grandkids the story of how you lost your arm fighting for the Emperor? Because if you give up now, it's never gonna happen. The only way you're gonna get there is if you keep going, keep hoping, and maybe one day you'll live to see it again.

Also I meant for the player. I bring nothing but cheap drama and angst, I am aware of it.
It's just... it's nothing against you, Alice, just... I've been so many people, made up so many feelings that I don't know if what I feel is true or if I'm just making it up... I don't even know what I'm into anymore... I don't know what I'm feeling, I'm so scared with every option because I fear it's not really the one I made...
>Sits down on a bed, back against a wall.
I also enjoy having you as a friend. Hell I even consider you a friend in this regiment and I've been around for only a day... same goes for Amelia...
Just... look give me some time... I've been meditating as of lately, trying to know who I was again... then I'll know... just I hope we can at keast still be friends no matter what...Who'd guess a polymorpher would have a sexual identity crysis? Oh I did.

>>44049107You do bring a lot more to the table than that, but don't worry about it, we've all done things mang, just need to keep moving forward. Plz cum back, we'll miss you if you go. Also do you really live in Rome? That's neat.

Apparently my attempts to actually have happiness aren't wanted by the Regiment it's self so....I might take one of the Jeeps out....maybe not.

It's actually 3 AM here too but tomorrow's my leave so... I can keep going as long as my body lasts awake.
>>44049284
Well first we just take it slow, 'hang out' after missions or between engagements, maybe erm...go to the shooting range or have a c-couple of drinks, maybe go t-to a movie if we're lucky enough to b-be on a civilized planet?
A-admittedly Guardsmen don't have the best options but....I'm glad you actually considered it at least....
>Alice hesitantly picks up the rum bottle, but doesn't drink.
>>44049301I know bruh, you are the mellow man, but if Gary actually confronts her about it, the greentexted lines are valid arguments though...Also I too would want some awesome sauce Penal Regiment /tg/ art things.

OKAY! I think I missed a few important details! What's going on!? Have we've been mindcontrolled or somethin'!?
>>44049392Aussie's are bro's man. I would try and stay up but I'm a peasant.
HARDMODE: If you get rid of Hank make a blatant Bushman. We had one a few threads ago and he was legit but....the timezone differences were too significant to happen.
Legit question here. Should ATP stick around? I feel that he... is an oddball and doesn't always fit in.
>>44049384
H-hey I'm your friend, a-aren't I? Considering it is the least I could do...
We... I guess we could try it if I don't come out with any conclussive results in my following meditations? And i-if it works it works and if it doesn't we're still friends... r-right?
>>44049311
>visibly drained from the affair
I'll take him to the medbay, see what they can do. Now you see why I'm a guardsman, not a therapist.

>>44049384
*walks back in, stormy as fuck, casts gimlet eye at them both, shakes his head, puts some broodlord parts in his still and sets the flame, gets inside Metal Slug to work on the gun*Yeah man, Gary has his proclivities alright, and his own ideas of the solutions to personal problems. His Catachan insularity and personal arrogance leave him rather lacking in perspective.
Aye, I wish Finnbro would get back in here. Damn his country's shitty interwebz. And yeah, very happy I asked who Amelia's player is. Had a hunch, and it followed.
Fucking ass dick tits and balls I always miss these threads. Mondays are hectic for me.So what's going on?
>>44049449He's a cool, helpful asset. Sure, we also have nine and (somewhat) Nyzart, but each of you three is unique in a way and quite gives life to the rp in its own sense... although the final decision isbyours to do as you please with him.
>>44049498

JA! Loadsa harry ticks!
>>44049554
Was it anything big or scary? Or tasty?
>>44049449Oddball? Woof woof!
But seriously? Aye I think that he fits in well, maybe spend some time trying to interact more with the other Guardsmen in the name of PROGRESS?
>>44049460
Aye, we're still gonna be friends, no matter what happens. T-thanks for...erm, you know, being w-willing to try it...
>>44049494
>Looks after Gary, in intense confusion
What did I do? You'd think from the way that he was looking at me that I dragged Sister Theresia into her room and vigorously 'confessed' to her....
>>44049471Can't even deny. I think I met some on GTAV a week ago. Fucking strange man. I think they were Maori's maybe?

Yeah, fraid you missed it. No worries though, more shit always comes along... Siddown, have a drink.
*tests traverse on turret and elevation on gun*
>>44049411
I'm sorry, who are you?
>>44049597
Well that's good! Keep it up!
>>44049581
>>44049516
>>44049505Alright, I'll keep him around then. We'll see how he does with social stuff as feelings make his gears lock up at the moment.
>>44049597
But I didn't get to shoot at all! Shit, boss is gonna be pissed.
>>44049602
Huh, a drink... that sounds. Nice.
>>44049633
Uh, Buck Colt. From Brimlock. I sorta miss out on a lot of shit.
>>44049652I'm glad you're willing to keep him around but if we get an actual Tank Commander who is Oddball in space man....
>>44049663I love the movie but I'm not sure I could play him right. Plus he'd need an actual tank, not a Chimera.
>>44049639

tanks!

Oh... Uh pray to big boss?
>>44049581
I...
>Sighs.
I kind of wish things had gone a bit different with Amelia, I hope neither of you get ressented against the other for this... I enjoyed the company of both of you...
I... do you mind if I sleep in one of these beds? I... kind of partied so hard I didn't eve pick a room... and I trust you won't try anything at least until I make up my mind...
...And Dolan might still be out there, awake, drunk and... uncontrolled...
>>44049678Well if Gary cleared it you might be able to borrow Slug sometimes, but that's his decision.

>blushes and brings the bottle to her lips.
....what does the third person do?
I mean unless we....um....uh....
>>44049706We'll see. Right now ATP is attempting to figure out feelings once again. Something the rest of the regiment is not helping with.
>>44049683
Yeah, sounds like the safest route.
>>44049734
Huh... wait, are we traitors? I've always sorta... slacked off. Say, can I have one of those guns?
>>44049773
>>44049699
Oh! But yes, you're free to bunk in here, and you have my word I won't try anything unless you're okay with it.
I...am...f-familiar with the feeling of um...nevermind. Not important!

Oh... OH....

So wait, how did we get to having a party? When I was in the shop this morning getting tuned up I thought I heard that we were gonna be fighting Tau again.

booberries?
>>44049830
W-what?! N-no, it's fine, please....
>Alice drops the bottle again and hangs her head.
It's just...we may w-want to...figure it out. But we can work on that later, for now we all need rest. Especially you with that minefield....
>>44049872
I... I gues... wow this is more awkward than I thought it could ever be...
N-NO OFFENSE INTENDED!
Well, I'm off. Maybe tomorrow Nyzart will make an actual appearance.
>>44049832
Nice.
....How in the blazes do you work this thing?
>>44049845
I dunno, apparently we're traitors or we're suddenly allies with 'Crons.
>>44049905
Welcome to the short short life of a Guardsman ma'am.
But please, get yourself comfy, I'll make sure Dolan behaves himself.
*Manages to make it back to the motorpool where he takes a seat in one of the jeeps and begins talking to the machine spirit in binary*.
It of course doesn't respond.
>>44049922
Nyzart has been around ages chum. Since Cadia, he's helped us more than you'd expect most Imperial officials. Maybe it's all the steel I have, but I've grown to like the fellow. He's just trying his best with the cards he's dealt, like any of us.
He's also got his Imperial papers as an official xenos envoy.
>>44049928
I... thank you... I guess... I'm... sorry for the incomvenience... I'll just go to sleep now...And I'm also going to sleep IRL now, 4 AM here. Good night fellas...
