"Of course I was successful. Like I said, I'm the man for the job." Vaxx said as he downed the shot. "Man that is good. So ... everyone else I met is going for some grub, do you wanna grab a bite? I mean we both owe that chick a pizza so why not go together? Also do you want that disc back, or should I dispose of it?"

"Oh you mean this disk"Ace put his left hand in his suit jacket and pulled the red disk out. He smiled and put it back in his coat. "The secrets simple really," then Ace took his hand and tapped a finger on the top of his head,"Unlimited Ammo.." There was an awkward silence until Vaxx noticed something.
"Hey isn't that from Meta-"
"Dammit!! Wrong line. What I really meant to say was that I am the perfect thief and that I think you are on your way to earning a seat in my throne some day. With the proper training of course, but still well on your way. But seriously if everyones down having food then we must make our way down there" Ace then quickly downed his shot and took a deep breath,"Do I look good,of course I do!!" He then got up signaling Vaxx to come with him and headed towards the elevator. AS he walked there he noticed a man standing directly in front of one of the two elevator doors. Ace saw that the door next to the man was beginning to open, so he quickly stepped into the elevator and pulled Vaxx along with him. He saw that the door was beginning to close and saw that the man who was waiting in front of the next elevator hadn't stepped into the elevator. As the door began to slide to a close Ace put his hand out and stopped the door. He stuck his head out and asked,"Hey Sir do you want to join us on this elevator? Theres more than enough room and I assure you it smells great."

“Oh thank you” he said walking in with a smile on his face. He began to eyeball the two men. They seemed a little less odd than the other people he had met on the ship. “So good sirs what bring you upon this ship”, he said looking at them with intrigued eyes. Then the room began to spin faster and faster until he hit the floor with a hard thud. The convulsions began a minute after he lost consciousness. His face began to turn an unsightly red and his arms began to grow into large. He began to gasp for air and speak, “get the *growl* adrenaline from my pocket please before it’s too late!!!”

"Oh you mean this?" Vaxx asked as he pulled a small vial out of his pocket. "Hey Ace, was that good? Oh yeah, what did you want this for? Is it to stop you from becoming a horrible beast? I could always just kill you, however that might lead to slight complications with the fire alarms. So I guess I'll just help you. So what do I do now?" He said as he balanced the vial on his index finger.

Ernest looked down at the helpless man and the two strange men trying to assist him... Should he really care? Probably not, he was barely getting paid for this brief and unwanted cameo, it's not even like he'd been fully finished and posted into the Character Bios! Ernest shrugged his massive shoulders and began to whistle a 1920's tune to himself... boy, being a super-soldier really didn't pay well, but being put into a silly cameo role paid even worse! Jeez, money sure was hard to come by these days...

Completely unawares of what was going on inside the elevator, Ender stared in awe at the banquet around him. The walls were lined with tables, and the tables were piled with food. Even he might get full in this place. Hell, maybe even a family of Saiyans could get full.
"Fuck it." Suddenly, three plates rose up from the tables and began floating behind the psychic. "Rie, you're on your own here."
Ender quickly and easily slung the girl over his shoulders in a fireman's carry and walked over to an empty round table, covered in a white table cloth and adorned with various glass objects. He plopped her down on a chair, and she retained motor functions long enough to flick him off.
The psionic, still with plates following him around, went to the nearest table, which happened to be the various meats.

Sly clicked his heels at Enders idea to eat now instead of later. He was right behind the psionic in line trying to fight the floating plates which had suddenly decided they must protect Ender from the Andalite.
"Hey cut it out Ender! I know you're making them do that!" Sly said as one plate nearly took off his head.
Merlin sat down at an empty table to wait. "Odds of an eating contest between those two is highly probable.” He sighed and looked over to see Rie setting alone in her drunken stupor. He edged over next to her. “So can I get you something to eat?”

Elias quickly grabed the shot from vaxx before something bad happend. He pushed the syringe in to his neck squeasing the adrenaline in to his blood stream. his gasping became less and less frantic, while his skin returned to its regular pale color. Elias slowly regained his composure as he rose from the floor. "umm thanks for the help" he said staring at the ground. "i kinda have issues i have to deal with." the elevator doors finally opened to reaveal ender having a little fun with food.
Elias's gut was growling with hunger, sohe decide just to go get some of the delicious food. "hmmm beef ribs !!!1"

Rie smiled, and to most it looked like a drunken smile, but if Ender were around, he would've been able to warn Merlin of the impending doom. She leaned closer to Merlin, putting her face near his. She breathed right into his face, her alcohol laden breath caressing his nostrils, then awkwardly reached forward to put a hand on his stomach. Moments later, that hand sunk inside the man.
"Feel that tingle? I can-" Rie hiccuped and Merlin must've felt a sudden prick of pain "-remove yer ability to have shildren just like-"
She attempted to snap with her other hand, but it didn't work very well. Rie pulled her hand out of Merlin's abdomen and slumped back into her chair. "Where the fshk ish my pizzas."

Completely ignoring what just happened, Vaxx walks out of the elevator and cuts right to the front of the buffet. Without skipping a beat he grabbed the biggest pizza he could find and quickly brought it to Rie. "Well here you go. A pizza for a haircut, as per our arrangement, and since you made it perfectly clear that you did not want company I will be off." Vaxx then walks back over to Ace and says "Ok, so where do you want to sit?"

Rie didn't even think about thanking Vaxx. She simply tried to pick up a slice and ended up dropping it, the pizza sauce splattering all over her previously clean dark-green shirt. "Feck, I'm gonna have to sober up or something."
The girl shook herself, and in only a minute, it was almost as if she had never gotten drunk. Now that she was properly coordinated again, Rie folded the entire pizza neatly in half, then in half again, and ate the entire thing like that. Somehow she didn't get any messier while doing so, nor did any of the pizza sauce ooze out and drip on stuff. As soon as she finished her last bite, Ender showed up, now with five plates full of food hovering behind him.

OOC - I love how many posts this got in the 24 hours I spent on a road trip without computer access. I also love how many of us are running two characters.
"You, meats. You, veggies. You, fruits. You, breads. You, desserts. You, beverages. Go nuts with the beverages. And everyone bring me a little."
The six duplicates moved away from the table and went to join the lines for the various tables. The one who had been assigned to eat nothing but vegetables shot a nasty look at the one who had been assigned to tackle beverages. That settled, Terrian sat down with Ender, Rie, Sly and Merlin.
He noticed Charles Tanner sitting at a table not far from them, and Mr. Tanner noticed it at the same time; he gave Terrian a nod and raised his cane slightly in salute before turning back to his conversation. Although Terrian was glad to have been thus acknowledged, he was also somehow glad that Mr. Tanner's table was full. He wouldn't have wanted to feel obliged to sit with Mr. Tanner, considering he still needed to work out exactly what the magician had been telling him in their conversation earlier.
Hopefully the four companions Terrian had fallen in with would provide conversation of a slightly less puzzling, if no less weird, caliber. He turned back to them and relished the awkward silence for one moment before plunging in. "So -- favorite animals? I like Welsh corgies, myself."

OOC: Photu is running infinity characters. True story.
I'm... uh... practicing my dialogue. yeah. </random excuse>
BIC: "Corgies are nice," Ender said in between mouthfuls of ham. "I'm personally not much of an animal person."
"I hate animals. Little buggers always tend to not listen and ruin a smoothly running mission and then I have to shoot them," Rie said.
There was an awkward silence.
Rie unfolded her pizza, which she ate almost to the end, and it turned out to be a full circle made of crust. She started nibbling on it.
Ender continued eating, but switched to mashed potatoes with prodigious amounts of gravy because that completely filled his mouth, and thus he wouldn't be obligated to talk after Rie.

Sly was balancing several plates which were piled with a little bit of everything. He knew he wouldn’t be able to eat it all but he would eat till he was about ready to burst. Setting the plates down in front of him he looked at Merlin.
“You’re not going to consuming any food, do you feel ok?” Sly said before shoveling something that looked like mashed potatoes and jell-o in the same bowl into his mouth.
“I lost my appetite,” Merlin said.
Sly shrugged and went back to eating. He thought for a moment about the question that had been posed to him.
“I would have to say caterpillars. I preformed a long study of them to see if I could refine the morphing technology. Amazing little bugs they are with a most perfect ability to morph.” Sly shoveled more of the mashed potato and jell-o combination into his mouth.

After the mishap in the elevator, Elias decided to eat his food by himself. He began to ponder why did he decided to evolve at that moment. There was no danger, no enemies, no real immanent danger from any one. Why did he inherit these genes, why was he being hunted down and what is he. The questions only made him more un- relaxed on the ship. Elias slouched back and waited for his bloating to subside.

"Bah, caterpillars. I hate the hairy little whore bags. Green ones are fine, but the hairy buggers make me itchy and get all over the place," Ender said after swallowing the last spoonful of mashed potatoes.
"You stole my word."
"Hush." Ender stacked up the empty plate onto the two other empty plates before moving on to the lobster plate.

Sly had now added ketchup and yogurt to his mashed potatoes and jell-o.
“Now I have to disagree. The hairy ones are the most amazing,” Sly said as he sipped some rum, “They don’t shed their spiky hairs before going into their cocoons, yet once their metamorphosis is complete there is no sign of the hairs in the cocoon or on the butterfly. Something occurs on such a basic genetic level that it rewrites the very constitution of the bug itself. Utterly amazing!”
OOC- Yeah Sly and Ender discussing science… and their subject is currently bugs…
Our characters know how to party! Wootorz!

"Ugh. Not the ones I dislike. They turn into moths, which are hairy up the wazoo. I don't really mind the moths, though, because like only like ten caterpillars make it that far. But before the metamorphosis, everything is disgusting and slithering and," Ender shuddered, "if I wasn't able to fly, I'd be so mad."

"Moths are hairy up the wazoo? Literally?" Terrian asked.
His duplicates had staked out an adjacent table. "Staked out" is a phrase which here means "claimed after the previous occupants, terrified at the sight of six identical men walking toward them at once, fled as discreetly as they could to another table". They were now busy chowing down, each one having already passed a share of his takings to the original Terrian. One of the handier little nuances of Terrian's power, which he supposed must have been an oversight on the part of whoever programmed the universe, was that his duplicates could eat until they were bursting at the seams and yet not make him any fuller when he re-absorbed them -- although he would still retain their memories of how good the food had tasted.
He cut off a large piece of steak and chewed heartily. At the adjacent table, his meat-eating duplicate did the same.
"Moths are okay, I don't mind them," Terrian added after a moment. "Dragonflies are definitely the coolest insects around, though."
OOC - Sitting around at a table, applying food to mouths and yapping about animal preferences. This is what I always dreamed ORP would be like.

"I like Dragonflies. Four big wings are awesome. Plus they eat other insects."
"Dragonflies are pretty, I suppose."
Ender stared at Rie. "Did you just call something 'pretty'?"
"Maybe," Rie smiled cutely back.

Sly shrugged and added hot peppers to his bowl of food. “Dragonflies are interesting as well. So far they have proven to be the most difficult creature to control the instincts of when in morph. The first time I morphed one I nearly went passed the two hour limit.” Sly shoveled more of the bowls contents into his mouth. He reached over to one of his plates and added some rice.
“You know what would make this real good?” Sly asked after eating a spoonful. “Some chocolate syrup. Did any one see any up there?”
OOC- What’s sad is that despite that there is currently mashed potatoes, jell-o, yogurt, ketchup, rice, and hot peppers all in the same bowl I would still try it…. In fact it makes me kind of hungry…

Ernest, upon hearing the conversation about bugs, decided to sit down at the table where the conversation was taking place. He sat his massive, nine foot two inches, four-hundred and fifty pound frame down in one of the fancy chairs no occupied at the table. The small chair groaned under his massive weight, he shifted his weight around until it was evenly balanced on the legs of the chair, though now it started to buckle a little... this made Ernest profoundly happy that he didn't decide to wear his powered armor to this fancy little event, even if his tuxedo didn't protect him from supah-lasers, his helmet still did!
"Ahem, I'd have to say that my favorite insect is the firefly, it's natural bio-luminescence is incredibly interesting and pretty at the same time! Yes, it could be said that they're the only productive insect as they light up a normally dark and dismal night!..."
Ernest then turned his attention to an odd smell... it smelled of mashed potatoes and other random ingredients mixed into a single bowl! DELICIOUS! He turned his head and shifted his weight toward Sly, careful not to tip over
"Hey, You gonna eat that wonderful combination of food?"

Sudden shifts in the air began to wreak havoc on the surrounding areas. Air currents ripped and tore around a large mass that was now moving across the barren landscape. The surface rumbled at a steady unending pace as the large mass, this object, began to move faster. Porcelain in nature the object had a round base with walls diagonally reaching upwards. There was no top to this obelisk; tall white mountains with red congealed lakes at their feet could be seen within. Creamy substances lined the inner walls making them slick and impossible to climb.
The hollow object continued to mercilessly slide along the ground until it was lifted into the air. From the sky a new object appeared. This new object was metallic with a large curved in area that was egg shaped. At the thick end was a long metal tail that reached off into the distance. With a jarring quake the metallic object struck the landscape that was within the larger hollow object. It carved into the mountains and the congealed red lakes and scooped them up into the curved in area before taking flight.
Sly looked up at Ernest, “Yes, I am going to eat this.” With that he deposited the contents of his spoon into his mouth and sat the spoon and the bowl back on the table.
OOC- There.
