Not as old as I used to be you know

[originalcopy]

Well, that was totally fuckin' awesome. 

Nothing like waking up and surprise you have arthritis!
I didn't even get to believe that I actually got to live a long life to justify the aches, pains and people treating me like I was totally senile.
Just the being old part.

Hope the rest of you had as much fun as I did!

[private] I suppose I should be grateful that I got to be alive again at all.
And I am, kind of... if I'd been younger I probably would have spent that whole time passed out drunk or something.
Instead, I didn't have much to do but just  be alive.  

And think about shit...  

[You aren't dead at all. You just aren't human. Neither was Tex.
Does it matter what kind of see-through guy inhabiting a suit of armor you are?]

I think I'll go and help Aradia at the outpost after all...  I've got better things to worry about than crazy Freelancer nonsense anyway. 

Total Fucking Bullshit... end of story.  [/private].
[and with that Church is going to grab his sniper rifle and make good on his "shooting holes in the castle" promise.  Because, fuck you castle that's why!]

[spongetastic]

That explains a lot.

[originalcopy]

What?

[originalcopy]

Oh hey... you're that nurse guy.

[spongetastic]

The way you were acting, and that you remembered the castle.

...and yeah. I'm that nurse guy.

[originalcopy]

Yeah well, hindsight is 50/50 isn't it.

[Duh.]

[spongetastic]

Sorry. You can't really fault people for acting under false memories.

[solowingpixy]

[Pixy'll be outside for a while today, and oh look. There's a guy shooting at the castle.]

It's gonna take a little more than that to take those walls down.

[He would know. He had the job of assaulting the Glatisant fortress.]

Action!

[originalcopy]

Well, if I had my tank it wouldn't be a problem.

[He takes a pot shot at a decorative bit of stonework.]

I'll just have to satisfy myself with a bit of minor property damage.

Action forever

[solowingpixy]

[He'll smirk and give a bit of a faint laugh. Wouldn't be a problem for him either if he had his Eagle.]

Well, do me a favor and try not to shoot the window of room 203. I'd rather not have any glass to clean up when I get back there.

[originalcopy]

I was originally planning to shoot out windows... but then I realized that would suck for everyone.

So now I'm just sticking to those useless decorative things.

[solowingpixy]

I certainly appreciate the sentiment. Can't say the same for anyone else.

[Windows were a great thing to have around, so how could they not appreciate it?

He'll turn his attention to the rifle Church was holding then.]

Pretty impressive weapon you're working with too.

Action forever!

[whistles_the_blues]

[Have a still old and worn down Protoman watch as you shoot at the Castle.]

Interesting way to waste bullets.

Ditto!

[originalcopy]

Totally fuckin' worth it too!

[He picks a particularly decorative corbel and blows a chunk out of it. He's much better at hitting inanimate objects... good for him, bad for the castle.]

Besides, I can always just get more.

[whistles_the_blues]

[Okay... Robots causing needless mayhem, maybe he wasn't so far from after all. Protoman is just going to walk up whined Church and lift up that big oval shield of his and attempt to whack Chruch off the back of the head with it. It's far from a sneak as his joints are pretty rusty and loud.]

Knock it off.

[originalcopy]

[Church is mostly ignoring Protoman in favor of getting some pent up aggression out on the Castle. He knows the Castle will just repair itself anyway.
However, when the sounds of aged metal joints gets too close for comfort he'll turn around.]

Uh, what are you...?

[and get a face full of shield. Fortunately for Church his armor is built to take much worse than that. It's still enough to send him backwards and to confuse the shit out of him.]

Ow!
Hey you rusty old heap! What the fuck was that for?!

[whistles_the_blues]

It was to stop you from being an idiot.

[Blunt as always.]

Are you malfunctioning, or just another one of his creations? If you're "smart" enough to shoot attack a castle with a rifle, it could go either way.

[eat_me_beat_me]

[Oh hey it's that guy]

you could always freak people out and act senile just to fuck with them.

[originalcopy]

Yeah, I had plenty of that shit to last a lifetime or two... thanks.

[eat_me_beat_me]

Yeah me, too. I'm about 70 years away from that shit. I'm not in any rush.

[originalcopy]

Hey at least you're still raising hell.
That's gotta' be worth something.

[eat_me_beat_me]

and I never plan on stopping. [she laughs]

[psych0p0mps]

i had some fun
a little
the party was fun

[originalcopy]

There may have been a couple of things that didn't completely suck.

[filtered]

Mind if I come out and check that security for you?
I need to get some time away from the castle.

Church

[psych0p0mps]

oh yeah sure!
you know where the transportalizer is right

Aradia

[originalcopy]

I think I'm going to walk... it should only take me a few days to get out there.

I just need some time.
