Avvy RP VIII: Discussion IV; I'm With Stupid

[mauve]

Hey IC, which battle should Ahrha V and I be noticing/heading towards? I'd like to get a post in, but I'm kinda lost.

Woo swordplay time!! Against the most powerful enemy we've faced all RP!!

Shit this ain't gona end well, especially since I'm at ground zero of an NPF blitz. Please refrain from using high powered explosives, at least until I get clear.

If only holding your breath in space didn't pop your lungs from the pressure difference!

Remember kids, holding your breath in a vacuum kills!

There is only one battle currently, and that is the one with the mega-droid that is trying to tear into Arhra III.

[Arhra]

Yay, I'm important!

[Shyria Dracnoir]

Yay, we're all doomed!

That's a load of malarky.

Also, Overcast, I caught the box you and am currently giving it a great big effin' charge of cosmic energy. Why? Because I thought something awesome might happen.

Actually seems pretty spot on to me. Plus you went from normal earth preasure to 0 presure and back again with no preperation. That does some nasty things to the body, though I'd have to ask my father the scuba diver for details. Quite possibly it'd do nothing in those sorts of timeframe.

Still, Nin's lungs wouldn't have hyper-inflated and burst like Arhra thought they would, that's the point I was trying to make.

Hey, I just got an idea on how to beat the droid. We could start pointing out that him and his abilities don't make sense within the realms of science as we know it. We could reason him out of existence, just like the ending to The Flight of Dragons!

[Overcast]

The Box was in the air because Bard threw it. The Box had not yet impacted with the droid. As the Box is an important part of my character I believe I have a right to have some control of the situation around him, and just as you cannot use a throwing coin that has been thrown until it has completed its battle phase you cannot say that my Box is on the ground until it has made his attempt to hit. Second, the Box is made of the awkward things that make anything that Overcast does possible. It is functionally awkward with most other things because it is literally fundamentally different to everything else in the universe and resists integration with it. That is why it cannot be destroyed, because it cannot be manipulated by anything other than Overcast. You can try tossing the Box when it is your turn, but charging it will just end with a waste of energy like trying to charge electricity into ceramics in a vacuum.

Edit it, or I will make him too heavy to pick up even if he does eventually meet the ground.
