idolpro | ROUND 5

[Heading in from one of the other areas, outfit all-over blood and definitely limping.]

Nem? Oh, Jesus -

[He goes down to one knee next to her - sets a hand on her back.]

Nem?

[ also-- looking at him, holy shit ]

What... happened to you?

Bad round last round.

[Attention's on Nemesis rn, tbh.]

[ i mean, legit, yeah, here's hoping she don't axe me in the face. but that's enough of an answer anyway.

gotta take care of the girl first. ]

[Better late than never I guess.]

[ once nem is somewhat more coherent; ]

... Let me come with you? Please.

Dude. You took someone's head off.

[She jerks away at the touch and whirls to face him, eyes wide and pretty bloody herself and axe in hand but--

Recognition]

--Hurricane!

Hey.

[Hands up, that universal I'm-not-armed gesture.]

Sorry.

Did you...?

[she doesn't finish, but he can probably guess the rest]

Yeah.

Look, grab your thing, we gotta get out of here. It's getting crowded.

Right...

[Looks around--falters, hands shaking--then nods. She backs away, slapping the box for 1]

Throwing blades - If your character knows how to use throwing knives, +2 damage output. If your character does not know how to use throwing knives, treat your precision score as effectively lowered by -3 while rolling to use the throwing knives. If used for close combat rather than range, +1 modifier to damage regardless of expertise.

Okay - okay.

You ready? Can you like - stand up?

Hurricane-san--? You're hurt!

[Wow he sure does spin around fast. He has zero weapons right now, but this is definitely a fight stance.]

Leave.

[takes a step back.]

I can help.

I said go.

[Gropes behind himself for black box, slapping his palm on it without really taking his eyes off the threat. Rolled a 2!]

Wish granting genie - It grants one wish, usually poorly.

But...

[his eyes flick from Nemesis and Hurricane to the surrounding area and back. he looks obviously torn, but nods slowly.]

... okay. If that's... what you want.

[ looks somewhat mortified. ]

W- What happened to you?

Bad round last round. Steer clear of like - half of SensitIV.

[ looks over his shoulder to anubis. ]

R- Really? They're that bad?

[ if he wasn't worried about this game before he's worried now. ]

Sniped us from a rooftop last round, then did the rest when we tried to disarm em.

He wasn't there, but -

[But Hurricane knew the ones who had been there been better. He'd have trusted them more.]

[ don't panic. don't panic. don't panic. ]

No, I... I understand. Jeez, what the hell is wrong with these people.

[ the producers and the audience to a degree. why is this what they want to see? ]

Do you know the layout of this place?
