[ol_northy]

[Well, after having arrived a little while ago, North has kept a watchful eye on the communications of others, and he's got an idea of what he ought to be doing.

It's been a harrowing trip--mentally, at least--and he's still slightly confused by the situation. Last thing he knew, he wasn't conscious. And now he's been deposited in a place that's about as mysterious as it gets.

He stands in the lobby of the castle in full armor, book open, and decides to introduce himself. Voice muted by the helmet, he addresses the general populace.]

Don't stop me if you've heard this one before. This is North, and I'm less lost than I am confused. Anybody care to give a guy the grand tour?

[After which point he just shrugs at the damn thing and tucks it away in his armor. With a shake of his head, he takes off his helmet, and begins to wander the lobby.]

Omega wasn't the most pleasant thing I've ever seen. Trust me, I know how she was with that thing.

[Now you lost him.]

Flying cheerleader?

[originalcopy]

He's a total fuckin' douche-nozzle.

[He's not even bothering to hide his contempt for Omega. As much as he'd try to deny it, he's still bitter about Tex leaving him again.]

Yeah, she's a blond chick who's seriously, dressed like a cheerleader. Got a great big S on her chest.

[ol_northy]

She was better off without him, that's the truth.

[And how. He never one hundred percent trusted her until she started acting like a human being.

Oddly enough.]

And she's got some kind of problem?

[originalcopy]

Yeah... she was.

[He shakes his head, he doesn't want to dredge this shit up. Keep it where it belongs, dead and buried.]

No more problems than any other chick... but she could toss you, armor and all, like you were nothing. And shit like that would just ruin your day. You can die here.

[ol_northy]

You can die? That's not somethig I'm going to do. Especially not death by being chucked by a cheerleader.

[originalcopy]

Yeah, so try to keep the heroics reasonable. Although, considering you're a Freelancer... heroics may not be quite the right term.


"Death by cheerleader" definitely not something you want on your tombstone.

[ol_northy]

[If only you knew how North was, bro. One hundred percent lethal but willing to take one for the team.]

I'm not really looking to die, anyway.

[originalcopy]

Not many people are. Death doesn't seem to give a shit.

[I'm sure Church will get a chance to learn.]

[ol_northy]

[Oh, he knows.]

Noted. But definitely not death by cheerleader.

[originalcopy]

Right up near the top of the list of embarrassing or awkward ways to go.

[Church knows way too much about embarrassing ways to die.]

Right... any more questions?

[ol_northy]

Nothing I probably shouldn't learn on my own. I'm sure I'll see you around, but I'll let you get back on your way. I feel like I interrupted something.

[originalcopy]

Yeah, you did actually...

[not in the slightest, he was going back to his room to do absolutely nothing. Maybe count the cracks in his wall again.]

...Have fun.

[He gives his hand a quick waive and heads back out the way he came. From there, circle around and take another entrance to get to his room. He's sure he'll think of a good reason to not like North later.]
