What I'm Doing: Instilling Respect


Manara looked over at the boy who made the sarcastic comment. Quietly she moved over to him and began to circle him, beginning to channel the Force within her. A sense of coldness and fear would be felt by those near her. As she circled the boy, her face formed her usual cruel smile. "It seems as though we have a joker in our midst. There is a difference, boy, between confidence and arrogance. You seem to be being the latter to me." She ceased circling, stopping in front of the boy, and raised her arm. She channeled the Force outward in a blast, and directed it toward James. The blast wasn't as strong as it could be, as it would simply push the boy off his feet rather than blow him against a wall. "To execute proper assassinations, confidence is key. Your targets will always know the difference between one who is confident and one who is arrogant. Arrogance will do nothing but serve to get you killed."

Who I'm with: Master, Connor, James, and the teacher


What I'm doing: Acting out


Master's aura and presence kept her calm, but the teacher's, 'I will not allow that woman a name,' response to James brought a glare to her face. Why'nn swiftly grabbed a throwing knife from the wall beside her and whipped it at the Sith with her new arm. Pain coursed through her but, despite a wince, she held her stance. The knife tore through the air with technique that would make Bhaal proud. As soon as the pain would let her move she did, not dim-witted enough to think the attempt would actually work. Keeping her attention mostly on the teacher, she began formulating her next move. 'If assassination is the point of the class I will accept that... but your treatment of James is unacceptable.'

What I'm Doing: Reacting


As she sent the wave of the Force out toward James, she sensed something being flung at her, spun around, and used the Force to grab the dagger as it neared her. The dagger floated about a foot away from her, as she looked at the girl who had undoubtedly thrown it. She gave a smirk to the girl and flung the dagger back toward her, purposely missing. However, the dagger did fly within an inch of Why'nn's face, then embedded itself in the wall beside her. "You show the same amount of disrespect as a student of mine showed when she first arrived here. I changed her, and I shall change you too." Channeling the Force once more, Manara became a blur and was suddenly standing in front of Why'nn. "I will teach you that you it is possible to hate someone, but have respect for them at the same time. If you have respect for your enemy, it's hard to underestimate what damage they can do to you." With that last statement, Manara nodded toward Why'nn's arm.

Who I'm with: The teacher, Master, Connor, and James


What I'm doing: Rebelling


Why'nn glared at the teacher, white hot rage burning in her chest. Reaching back, she pulled the knife from the wall and regarded the Sith. 'Respect?' She held no respect for the teacher. "You will not break me," Why'nn stated. 'I respect your power. I do not respect you.' Would she be able to land a hit? The last time she did this teacher was distracted. With so much attention focused on her, Why'nn did not believe she'd get through the defenses. Instead, she circled around to stand beside Connor. 'But now I have your attention. I would set you aflame were we not in Master's domain.' She didn't want to cause harm to her master's teaching room, so she refrained from trying to catch the Sith's clothes on fire again. 'Perhaps when you train me I will do so.' Why'nn toyed with the knife, as if her body wanted to throw it at the Sith again but she was holding back.

Who I'm With: Why'nn, James, Delrick, Manara (Connor), Connor (Manara)


What I'm Doing: Talking to Why'nn (Connor), Retrieving the Dagger (Manara)


Connor watched the events unfold in front of him. His heart jumped into his throat when he saw the dagger fly back at Why'nn, but was relieved when it didn't actually hit her. This made his anger once again flare up. She had already taken Why'nn's arm, did she want her life now? Once the display was over, Connor spoke to Why'nn. 'I hate her too for what she did to you Why'nn. I hate her for what she plans. People like her don't deserve the life that flows through them.' Connor eyed the dagger that was in Why'nn's hands, then looked to Manara, and once again to the dagger. As he was about to take the dagger himself and throw it at the teacher, it was ripped from Why'nn's hands.


Manara pulled the dagger to her with the Force, and calmly made her way back over to the weapon rack. As she replaced it, she spoke.
"Weapons training will come. For now, you'll learn hand-to-hand assassination techniques. Seeing as there are three of you, you'll take turns facing one another." She pointed to Connor now. "Step forward, boy. I must give a demonstration. I want you to attempt to take me down to the floor."





Connor clenched his fists, but walked forward all the same. As he took position in front of her, his glare returned. "You know that I'm not going to be able to do that, right? You've made it pretty damn clear that you're much more powerful than us." With that, Connor lurched forward and grasped the teacher by the arm.


Manara gave a smirk as the boy clutched her arm. Using the boy's momentum, she whipped her arm upward, clocking Connor right in the mouth, and flipping him backward onto the ground.
"As I said, I must give a demonstration. Again."





Connor wiped the blood from his lip and got back up to his feet. This time, he circled around behind her, and took her around the neck. "You're quite the bitch, you know that right?"





Manara smiled as she felt the boy's anger taking him over once again. As she felt his arms around her neck, she throw herself backward, landing on top of Connor. Manara sprung back up to her feet, and looked toward the others. "You are like your girlfriend. Stubborn and disrespectful. Perhaps I should take your arm too? Perhaps your leg?" Manara turned and watch Connor get to his feet. "The point of this exercise is to master different take down tactics. Use your imagination. Improvise as I did when the boy grasped my neck. There are more ways than one to free yourself from an uncooperative target."





Connor wouldn't give up. He had to take her down once more. As he sprung to his feet, he dove toward Manara's legs, attempting to knock them out from under her.


Manara simply gave a smile, and did a round house kick right to Connor's head. The boy did a twirl in the air and landed on his back.
"You will practice take downs. Why'nn and Connor, you shall go first. Who ever get's taken down first, will switch places with James and you shall rotate as such." With that, Manara walked a bit away from the students and began observing the students.

What I'm doing: Observing


The monk leaned back and watched the events unfold. Holding his coffee just in front of his face, the steam rising in front of his face.


He saw Why'nn use her new left arm, impressed at her amount of control she had already, but could also her technique needed some refinement. He made a note to incorporate weapon throwing into his instruction. 'How will you handle this and accomplish your lesson Manara?'


Seeing her begin with hand to hand, he shook his head slightly and sipped his coffee. Noting Manara's sloppy technique, this style of combat had never been get forte, but she was adequate. The monk would sit quietly to the side and watch.

Who I'm with: Connor, the teacher, Master, and James


What I'm doing: Forming a plan


The knife being ripped from her hand brought a hiss of pain. Her left arm was still very sensitive and she hadn't fully gotten used to it yet. Why'nn glared at the teacher during the demonstration, gritting her teeth each time the Sith landed a hit on Connor. This would not stand. Already, the gears in her mind turned as she thought of a way to turn this around.


'Connor... I have an idea.' Though she stepped forward, moving as if she were going to follow the lesson plan, approaching Connor in a clearly antagonistic fashion, she didn't attack yet. 'We could take her down if we worked together.' He was hurt, that kick probably took a bit out of him. It would be a bit unfair to attack him in this state. 'This is going to have to look like we're fighting each other.' Her human hand grasped his arm, pulling him up to his feet. 'I don't want to hurt you... but I have a feeling we can work off of each other. With this connection we can use each other's movements, form an attack on her. I doubt James will help, but we should be able to move in sync with each other.' Hand to hand combat had never been her strong suit and she did not want to use the cybernetic appendage against Connor or James. Before she let go, she whispered a healing prayer so Connor would be at his full strength, then let go as the gray light faded from her hand. She backed away a bit and dropped into a right-handed fighting stance, signalling she only intended to use her left for blocking. 'So either I throw you toward her or you throw me.'

What I'm doing: Watching


James watched the Sith walk up to him carefully, not sure what she'd do. He wasn't afraid, but caution wasn't out of the question. He listend to what she said very carefully.


"I understand."





The air in front of James bent and twisted, and a dome of Will diffused the Force push meant to show him back. The last thing he needed was to look weak in front of this woman. James didn't blink at Why'nn half-baked assassination attempt, followed by The Sith's humiliation of Connor. As Connor and Why'nn began to circle each other, James watched, a sinking feeling in his stomach telling him that they wouldn't stop this insanity.


"I apologize for my sarcasm." James said to the teacher, only half-looking at her. "I just saw some of the incident in the hallway and was mildly worried that one of you would attack the other. I'm here to learn, as I'm sure you understand, and I didn't want impulsiveness to interfere with that... well, more than it has already, what with that knife. But I will keep your advice about arrogance in mind."


James paused for a moment as he thought.


"Although... it seems to me that the ideal assassin wouldn't have to worry about their target seeing their confidence or arrogance. To me at least, an ideal assassin isn't seen by their target until after the kill is made, if at all."

Zipper hears hk and pipes up. "I can't even if I wanted to!!" She says in response to hk. She blushed when valian kisses her forehead and holds her she closed her eyes before looking up at him when he spoke. "Okay then we will...." she says in response softly a carefully moves away and climbed half-way onto the seat poking her head out. she didn't want to move away from valian's arms but he said not to hide under the table so she listened to him. she climbed back into the seat patting next to her for valian.

Who I'm With: Why'nn, James, Delrick, Manara (Connor), Connor (Manara)


What I'm Doing: Agreeing to the plan (Connor), Explaining To James (Manara)


Connor dropped into a fighting stance and looked to Why'nn. 'James made his stance on this clear. It'll be just you and me. You know what's going to happen if this doesn't work, right? There will be punishment. Your master is right over there too, watching this whole thing.' Connor paused, know that what he had just said to her sounded like he didn't want to do this, but the truth was that he did. 'I know how that first part sounded, but I am with you. I'm willing to try.' He considered the options and thought it'd be best for him to be thrown at the teacher so he could do it. 'Throw me at her. I'll slam her into the wall with telekinesis and hold her there.'





Manara listened to James and gave him a pat on the shoulder, never taking her gaze off the two who were about to spar. "Not all assassinations will take place from range or from silent, stealthy operations. Sometimes you'll need to get to know the person you supposed to kill. Get close enough so you can poison them, or stab them with a dagger." Her cruel smile returned. "Strangulation is also something that must done up close and personal. There are times where you must spend months learning your target. Learning their daily routine, who they talk to, who their spouse is, if they have children. Granted, that doesn't happen too often, but those types of missions do come around. There are even people who request that their target be killed in a certain fashion."

What I'm doing: Listening


James thought about Manara's words carefully. He was definitely grateful to Mistress Imalia for her courage spell. Without it, James doubted he could've stood this close to The Sith without shivering in fear. He was still tense as a coiled spring. The courage spell took away his fear, not his sense of self-preservation.


"That is true. Thank you, I will keep this knowledge in mind. I must say, today has been full of... learning experiences, some painful, others less so. However, unlike some, I've decided that it is better to learn a lesson the first time, rather than necessitate reteaching."

KEIS would've normally been angry, but she considered the fact that like herself, the unknown droid was well... A droid. They weren't expected to sugarcoat, especially if they weren't made to be human. Maybe if she cleared up the confusion about her being a living thing, he'd have more respect.


"Well, I'm not a fleshbag. This is just for show. Tactical advantage against living things, this body can be the difference between a missed shot and getting hit."

What I'm doing: Thinking


'He won't... and she's near him... We should bide our time. If one of us gets hurt too badly I will heal again and we'll try the next time we spar. This is too close. She shall be expecting it.' Putting aside her romantic feelings for the moment, Why'nn moved in, her right hand snapping out to grab his left, her free hand on guard as she maneuvered to attempt to pin his arm behind him. 'I do not intend to harm you and I assume you do not want to harm me. One of us has to fall, face James, then, assuming all goes well, we make our attack. I will make sure we are both without injury.' She was smaller than him by several inches, much below him in weight. Had she not worn the coat he could've seen the ripple of muscle, signalling her movements. If she had an opening she might try to send a spell at the teacher, or move them closer to the weapon racks to grab a scythe.

Who I'm with: Zipper, a droid, and a few firsties


What I'm doing: Being happy


Valian smiled, quickly pulling himself out from under the table and back into the seat beside Zipper. "Sorry, I was a bit distracted. KEIS, was it? I'm Valian." He smiled and waved. "If you're new what you want to do is go to either the administration office, which is down the hall on this floor, you'll see the sign, or to the Headmistress's office on the fourth floor. I'd recommend the administration, though. She tends to get pretty touchy around this time of night."
 
Position : Mess Hall


Companions : (@Crimrose) KEIS , (@folclor) Valian ,(@mewbot5408) Zipper , (@Rookie) Brutus , (same guy!) Flal


Engaging in : processing information


Valian replied that he was more interested in being celibate , which the droid chose to take at face value. I don't want to make Zipper dislike me just because I don't care for this Male Fleshsack Valian. Asides , I don't think reptilians , even Falleen , can actually produce offspring with humans. Then again... Zipper here was human once. But she isn't anymore , is she? The thought continued through some generally mushy-mushy garbage talk about having emotions this way before on the subject of any other Liquidious one. His train of thought was , however , broken when he said they should stop concealing themselves underneath the table. Indeed you should! How am I to speak to them properly when I don't have a line of sight on them? That's why I dislike comlink transmissions.. Raxus I , what are they doing under there anyway? I suppose eventually I could rig up X-Ray vision , but I don't want to go throwing around Gamma Radiation either , so I'll just have to accept not finding out.


Zipper herself stated she has the inability to produce offspring , confirming HK-50's ideas on the subject. Finally she said something about not being underneath the table any longer , emerging slowly , half by half , from underneath the table. now , now we can have a proper conversation. I don't actually know why I prefer that... Probably some thing to do with being a protocol droid for secondary functions... Of course as was always the case , before he could speak he was interrupted by someone who didn't figure into anything he was about to say. What the hell does that mean? Not a FleshSACK , she meant anyway? Just for show? He couldn't think of such a droid that looked as humanoid as this KEIS did. Obviously some advanced cyborg! Perhaps she was joking with him or trying to anger him. In any case he didn't see what it could help tactically , either. Valian merely reiterated what HK-50 himself had said in a nicer way.


Finally being able to speak , HK-50 did so. "Statement/query : so , I take it then whatever made you into the Zipper you are now removed your Ovaries? Or are you unable to reproduce with Valian's Humanoid type? I thank you for coming out from underneath the table , as well. I'm prickly about being able to have a line of sight to who I'm conversing with. KEIS , you must either be a Cyborg or an Annoyance. I see no tactical advantage to looking like a Fleshsack , in any case. Please don't say bag , that's my brother's phrase. I'm sorry for offending you somehow Zipper , I don't mean to make Valian here dislike you... So... Would you like to consider me a friend and/or ally , Zipper? Oh yes! I never introduced myself to the two met people. HK-50 Unit Oh-One. Or The Prototype."

What I'm Doing: Losing (Connor), Watching (Manara)


Connor nodded to her and said one final thing to her. 'Alright, and just so you know, I've never been good with hand-to-hand combat. Just never saw the need to do it. Even when I started getting beat up on a daily basis.' He paused for a moment, giving her a small smile. 'I'm going to close you out of my mind for now. If you want to make this look real, I can't be channeling my thoughts to you.' He gave her a smile and closed off his mind. For only a moment, she'd seem alone, but then that feeling would leave her. That was when he developed a plan of his own. One that would keep Why'nn out of trouble as it would seem like Connor was acting on his own. He had to lose this fight with Why'nn. When she grasped his arm to pull it behind him, he fought against her grasp. However, her smaller size made her a bit faster than him, and his arm was now pinned behind his back. He made to move his leg backward, purposely going wide, but to her, it would seem as though he was just untrained and not focused. This was where he hoped she'd take the opportunity and drop him.


Manara crossed her arms as she watched the two begin their spar.
"Then it would seem you have more sense about you than your fellow classmates have. Why'nn's loss of limb was punishment for attacking me in that corridor earlier today. She's lucky to have escaped with her life. I also can't help but sense she will continue to be a problem." She gave a smirk as Connor moved his leg the way he did. "Bad move, boy..." she whispered.

What I'm doing: Thinking of ways to prove that I'm a machine as well.


KEIS was partially surprised that the droid couldn't identify another simply by being nearby, maybe they didn't have that technology just yet. 'Well, this guy must be ancient, or their tech hasn't gotten very far. I'm not even state of the art.' KEIS created a sigh, which wasn't hard to do, but it sounded just a bit off to a good listener. She looked to HK-50. "You do remember how we're all from different places right? Back where I'm from, this is basically normal. Tactical advantage against things that aren't like you and me. This was used to a great extent on one of our other products, which despite looking like a military machine, made noises akin to cows and cicadas. This alone has been proven to lower a humans guard. Now imagine that, but with looks and voice of a female. It's worked before... But I also killed the guy. Oh well, he was an enemy anyway. Can't you scan or something? There's nothing in me that's remotely human, besides how I'm designed."

Who I'm with: Connor, Master, James, and the teacher


What I'm doing: Being a little disappointed


Why'nn frowned visibly when he disconnected from her, finding his excuse of being bad at hand-to-hand a terrible one. She didn't even have to work at it and wondered whether he was doing this intentionally. All she had to do was kick his stationary leg out from under him and step back. So she did, sweeping his leg out from under him and stepping back, releasing him and letting him clatter to the ground. The girl tilted her head to the side a bit, a look of disappointment clear upon her face. She heard the teacher's statement and glared, but did not attack her. 'I'll show you. I can bide my time. I can show you how terrible a student can be.' For a moment she considered attempting to set the teacher's clothes on fire again, but decided to wait, as she had planned. Instead, she readied herself for James to attack, again taking a right-handed stance. While she didn't care as much for James as she did for Connor, he was a smart guy and she decided she didn't want to cause him any sort of damage that would leave him in the infirmary if she didn't have to.

What I'm doing: Sparring


James sighed and stepped forward, stretching a bit. He had no combat training beyond what he'd learned in Hand-to-Hand combat class earlier that day, and thus was fairly certain that at best he'd be able to lose with a little dignity. Still, that was no reason not to try.


"Well... I know I'm going to lose this."


The air around James began to warp a bit.


"But that's no reason not to try."


James's body began to make strange creaking and cracking sounds as his body began to change. His limbs stretched and thinned, his hair grew longer and shaggier, and his eyes turned yellow. The bones in his fingers made painful sounding pops as they elongated, his nails growing and curling like claws. James grit his rapidly growing and sharpening teeth as the changes came, every click and snap as his bones rearranged themselves as painful as it sounded. He knew he wasn't doing this right. The change wasn't supposed to hurt, it was supposed to be quick, and he was supposed to be a grey wolf, not... whatever he was. But James was nowhere near close to mastering transformation. This was the best he could do.


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_05/57a8c9d35c4cb_jamesaltered.jpg.66ebf92b03d2ccfd90c8820d98b6b9aa.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="125016" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_05/57a8c9d35c4cb_jamesaltered.jpg.66ebf92b03d2ccfd90c8820d98b6b9aa.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


"Alright." James said, a canine growl in his voice.


Where before he'd only been a few inches taller than Why'nn, now he had to incline his head to look at her, having grown a good six inches over the course of the transformation. James raised his hands in a very basic defensive stance, the kind that made it clear he had no formal training whatsoever. He didn't need to be told that he'd end up flat on his back if he made the first move.


"Go ahead, I'll do my best not to embarrass myself."

What I'm Doing: Enacting the plan (Connor), Reacting (Manara)


Connor fell to the ground with a thud. As he got to his feet, he placed a gentle hand on Why'nn's shoulder and walked over beside Manara. He stood there for a moment, watching Why'nn and James begin their portion of the sparring. Connor didn't look to Manara when he began speaking to her. "You know...There was a time when I would have given anything to leave my universe and go live in another. Your's was one of them. When I was a kid, I was always outside playing like I was a Jedi or a Sith. Battling evil or conquering the galaxy. There was a time I'd look up to you as someone to learn from, even if you are evil." Then he turned and faced her. "But then you cut Why'nn's arm off, and you nearly strangled me to death. Now I want nothing more than to kill you. So that's what I'm going to do!" Using his telekinetic power, he pulled a sword from the weapon rack to him and swung at Manara.


The Sith had sensed something was going to happen, but she hadn't been expecting this. As the sword came down, it caught her across the cheek, causing her to recoil. She turned to the boy, an evil grin on her face.
"I'm surprised it's you attacking me!" Manara pulled her lightsaber out and ignited it. As the purple blade sprang to life, she swung out, cutting the boy's blade in half. With a spin, she swung the blade across the boy, severely burning his face. With a turn of her arm, she brought the blade up and jammed it through the boy's gut. As she disengaged the blade, Connor's body dropped to the ground. Manara placed her saber back on her belt then placed a hand on the fresh cut on her face. She turned back to the other two students. "Would either of you wish to be taught this same lesson? I'm getting quite sick of being attacked. If this persists, I swear that I will kill without hesitation. The boy is lucky there is an enchantment on this room. Let this be a warning to you both."

What I'm doing: Sparring


Having seen transformations more horrible than that in her earlier days, she did not flinch, though this did mean she wouldn't hold back as much as she had planned to with him. This might be a little fun. A smile tried to work its way across her face, though she kept it from overpowering her expression. 'This might be a challenge... The only challenges I have had thus far have been from the teachers... and they are above my level...' She began to move toward James until she heard the argument happening between Connor and the teacher. The blade was ignited and she knew what was happening. However, when she heard what happened, she rushed James, moving to grab his arm, sweep his legs out from under him, and throw him at the teacher. This time she was using her left arm, though it hurt her terribly.


He wasn't dead. He couldn't die in this room, she knew that, and it was the only thing that kept her from crying out and rushing the Sith. This was the second time today she'd watched her boyfriend (is that what she was calling him now?) drop because of this woman. Instead of letting her rage overcome her, she used it to quicken her strikes and put a bit more power behind them.

What I'm doing: Fighting


James was suddenly aware of himself flying through the air as Why'nn kicked his feet out from under him. From the look of it, she was getting angry again, and he really didn't feel like being caught in the middle of a fight between Why'nn and Manara. As he flew through the air, he dug his claws into the ground, carving gashes in the floor as he killed his momentum and landed in sort of a runners stance. He wasn't sure if he was allowed to use magic for this, but he hadn't been expressly told not to so...


"Go."


James shot a burst of kinetic energy from his feet, propelling him forward as he attempted to pounce on Why'nn at roughly the speed of a moving car.

Who I'm with: HK, Zipper, Flal, some third year, and KEIS (vice-versa for Flal)


What I'm doing: Following the conversation (Both)


Both followed the conversation, Flal spoke up when HK mentioned a whip "W-Whip? No, No, No, I've only been hit once or twice by hand for being disrespectful to a Sangheili." Brutus would have to speak with Flal about this later. Then, HK started talking about Zipper's admirer and sounding like one of those Earth Fathers 'Be back by 12:00 and anything you do to my daughter I'll do to you.' Or at least thats how Brutus remembered it he hadn't watched 'Modern Earth Life' in a long time. HK then mentioned having a brother.....could machines do that? Flal noticed mention of the Headmistress and quickly memorized the 'directions' that had been given on how to get there so he could get his own schedule and speak to her about acquiring Methane or perhaps there was an on campus requisitions officer or office. So they sat listening to the current conversation and waited.

Engaging in : Realizations


When KEIS produced a slightly mechanical sigh not dissimilar to one HK-50 himself would've made , it caused the droid to wonder if someone hadn't suceeded making a droid with cloned skin for a covering , without said skin rotting away very quickly or making the droid be so very much taller than any being it could be modeled off of. Don't Patronize me , of course I remember. Ah... Wherever she's from must have gotten farther on a few research projects than the Sith or the Republic. What does she mean by 'things that aren't like you or me'? Can't be liquidous beings , they wouldn't mind shooting at themselves... They do it almost constantly. What is a cow? Or a Cicada for that matter? Must be frightening or oppositely comforting , to lower a Fleshsack's guard.. It brought a distinct glow to know this... He decided to have his scanners now , despite the processor issues that tended to generate - such issues not being unlike a Human Headache. Already assuming she was some kind of Droid , he wasn't suprised when the scans turned back that indeed , she was another droid of some type. Yes , Pain in the processor , I CAN use scanners. Why would I here? I'm not going to be attacked and I'll just get a processor issue doing it... Condescending scion of a Fluidics system. This last curse he reserved specifically to droids , Fluidics being a primitive system of wiring in HK-50's Galaxy. Though some still use it... And I can't run without cooling fluids..


Finally Flal spoke... Apparently not getting the metaphor with the Whip. HK-50 wouldn't give little Flal aggrievment over it , most droids wouldn't have got the metaphor either. Ah! So these Sangheili must be his masters then, for disrespect to bring fists of fury. I wonder if more than his Unggoy type serve them... A question to be asked indeed. deciding to speak then , the droid's voice had a tone of aggravation at being treated as an obsolete junk heap by KEIS. "Statement/Clarifications : Ah! So you are also a class four. I would try to send you compressed speech , but I also want to allow these Fle- oops , I like these people.. Organics to involve themselves. Yes , Fluidics Scion , I do have scanners. I get a processor issue when I use them , some Fleshsacks would call it a HeadAche. Besides , the Chef doesn't want any combat so I don't see any risk of being attacked here. What is a Cicada and a Cow anyway? I assume they either terrify or comfort humans from wherever you happen to originate from , else they wouldn't lower any guards. But what would looking human do to help you? Humans where I'm from have no issue whatsoever shooting each other. Maybe yours are different. See , where I'm from , attempts to make human-appearing droids invariably fail , because static masks fool no one and cloned flesh rots away too quickly. Attempts to fix that end up making it too large or tall to imitate the being it's trying to.. Maybe , oh , 4 millennia from my time-3 and 7 centuries from the current-someone may succeed. Probably'll look more like you , Males tend to not be as astute around attractive women. Like Valian over there , heh. Weaknesses... Oh , I meant that metaphorically Flal. I've not been whipped either , just put in extreme agony or had limbs or other body parts ripped off with pain controls still activated. So I assume these Sangheili are your masters , then? Any other species serve these masters? Oh and KEIS , what the Raxus I does that stand for? HK-50 Unit Oh-One stands for Hunter Killer model series 50. Obviously I was the first of these units. There were 9 of those , but I already said that and shan't repeat it unless I can get harshly intoxicated. I come from The Galaxy , supposedly detailed in something called Knights of the Old Republic. Jesus , why couldn't it be called HK-50-01's epic adventure? That's rhetorical , factory-fresh."
 
Location: The Arena


Who I'm with: James, Master, Connor's corpse, and the teacher


What I'm doing: Fighting


Why'nn knew what she had to do and she let the thing inside her take over, her right hand twisting into claws, her features fading away. She seemed incorporeal, even if she was not, and the creature gave her increased speed and strength. Diving out of the way, she narrowly dodged him, though the thing in her head was unused to the arm, she overwhelmed it. Her rage, her wrathful state, forced her consciousness to the forefront in the thing's body. Her right hand shot out, claws poised to rip James open along the left side. The aura she sent out in this form was that of the deepest nightmares. The thing in her head cackled, feeling it had won, but she was too blinded by her anger to hear it.


With her left hand she performed an incantation and sent a spell shooting at the teacher. If it took, the teacher's clothes would catch fire and burn - fast. Working off of anger, working off of this deep of a rage was new to her, but she could get used to it.

zipper




Where: cafeteria


With: hk,Brutus,flal,valian,keis


Doing: being cozy and happy


Zipper leaned over resting her head against valian as she listened to them speak. She blushed when hk asked her another set of embarrassing questions but answered anyway. "I'm a hermaphrodite....neither side is able to...so other words I can't reproduce naturally.." She says with a little somewhat annoyed sigh. She tilts her head looking up at the robot. "zipper thought zipper and hk already were friends..." She says patting him on the head in a friendly manner. She then settles down again comfortably next to her new boyfriend before laying down on his lap purring like a cat.
