Halloween party - part two!
As far as well-mannered frivolity goes, the party is well under way.
Suddenly, with a flourish and a spotlight -- it's not clear where from, to be honest -- Captain James Wolfgang Redd appears on a makeshift wooden stage, arms spread wide.
"AHEM." He clears his throat loudly, and gestures to the crew who remove themselves from socializing -- or ( Read more... )

Just like shooting Rakks.]

At the risk of friendly fire and shooting somebody she maybe gives a damn about, she aims at a raised angle. Her baby is here again. Her Combustion Hellfire is here where it belongs.
If he can hear over the BRAT-AT-AT-AT-AT-AT-AT-AT of her submachine gun, the shrill cackle belongs to her.
(There are quite a lot of cardinals on fire now.)]

Once he reaches her, he stands back-to-back covering her six.]
You seen Mordecai?
[He yells so she can hear him over the panic and gunfire.]

That's right, you just made them more dangerous.]

There are runes etched into the blades for a reason. In the seconds before everything goes to hell she looks around herself to pinpoint where her allies and the closest passengers are; Nel takes her offensive stance and lunges to cover whoever is nearest. The Crimson Blade is back in action.]

Andrew has been in situations akin to this before, but demonic birds? That was a little beyond his experience. The scariest part is that they do seem like demons, but nothing is coming to Andrew's mind. Fyarl, Grappler, Potentate, it's nothing. And the unknown is scarier than even Bringers.
This girl--she's smaller than Andrew--she's got this big sword and Andrew has nothing. He doesn't want to die again... especially not like this. He saw what happened to that girl-bot. He stumbles closer to the girl with the sword and touches her shoulder.]
I-is there a way out?

Try the doors!
[Damned birds--
Wind isn't enough. She readjusts her grip on the dagger and points it toward herself, a ring of light flaring, circling, and summoning a hail of jagged ice shards to spray toward the red hellions.]
((ooc: holy shit i have too many threads and i need to post reactions to post #3 still DO YOU WANT TO PLOT HOW THIS ENDS? ;;))

Luckily, a door wasn't too far off. When Andrew gets close enough to try it, not only does he find it locked, but he feels a good slash of a sharp beak on his arm and yelps as he grabs at the cut with the opposite hand.
He's panicking when he stumbles back, shouting, to Nel.]
It--it-it's jamm--locked! Or... or... [Or he doesn't know what. His eyes are starting to get wet and he knows that if he dies he'll come back, but it doesn't matter, he still doesn't want to die. It hurts.
He tries to keep his head low, protecting his face, but the birds are swooping and everything. It's like that Alfred Hitchcock movie that he just hates.]
What do--what do we do?
[ooc: no worries! take your time! and sure, just IM me when you get the chance! I have threads, too, so I feel you!]

Mikaela yelps as a bird flits by her, narrowly missing her head. She takes off at a dead run across the room, eyes searching frantically for her friends, they have to get out in time, she can't leave them but OUCH
OUCH OUCH OUCH
Damn BIRDS are making it difficult!]

You, too!
[She can't leave Jinx D:]

I can handle it.
[No, really. He's not going to get his ass kicked as par usual because he has his Mardammed weapons.]
Don't need ya' gettin' hurt again.

Oh, wait. Since when did Jinx get all his eco and other handy weaponry back? There's no way in hell he's gonna miss this.
He pulls out a few shells, as if he hadn't been missing them for months, then began launching them ever which way at the cardinals.
Say your prayers, bitches.]

This isn't good at all. Jinx is running away, all the while digging through his pockets for that damn eco pistol. Finding it, he aims back and tries to either kill one, or detonate the bombs.]

Oh gods, Toaster is so lost. Bit=rda are supposed to be nice, fluffy creatures.
One swoops down and tears a generous bit out of his shirt. He is running to the exit.]

[Zee's voice is booming and she has a gigantic gun that's now strapped to her arm. It was her favorite one that had gone missing when she boarded the ship ;_;
Toaster gets a rough shove towards the exit.]
NOW!

He turns back to the woman, his fear replaced with confidence because HE'S GOING TO DO SOMETHING.]
