Day 163, Closed | WE HUNT!
Who: Colin Starfury, everyone who responded to his rallying cry
What: Hunting a Gasfella for a fallen friend
When: Day 163, "Oh God" Early
Where: The Skyway
Format: Whatever the heck you want, we're all big kids here
Open: Closed to those who responded.
Warnings: Violence, oh boy is there gonna be violence. Also, this thing has killed one person already, so there's that.
He'd gathered his crew. He'd interviewed Rin. He'd examined Night's body, the wounds she'd suffered. He had all the evidence he'd be able to get here, and now it was time to head out. He'd grabbed his pistols and an ammo belt, wearing both openly. Also, he'd fashioned a bandolier some time ago to carry grenades, and today was the first time he was going to wear it out.
He wasted no time in getting everyone who said they wanted to come. He was mindful of the residents who didn't want anything to do with it, those who needed only to sleep and mourn. But for those who were going to hunt this thing down, Colin was there, waking them from their rest and rousing them to meet at the Skyway entrance.
There, he set out what was coming in what he hoped was easily understandable terms.
"Okay everyone," he announces. "Our first stop is where this all went down. We need to find more information so we can track down the creature. Rin tells me it was a BIG Gasfella, different coloration than the ones we normally see out there. She'd tried to talk to it, and it attacked them mercilessly. It didn't want them there."
His eyes narrowing, he continues. "So we're going there, we're going to find what it was guarding, and then we're going to find it. We are going to give it one chance to surrender, and if it does anything other than lay down its weapon and put its hands in the air, we are going to kill it so certainly that it will have to crawl into its afterlife."
He looks at Nanaki briefly, then he looks at Paarthurnax and Alucard. "Again I'm going to say... No eating this thing. It tore apart two full-power demons, I don't want anyone getting close enough for a hug, because that will open you up to all kinds of hurt," he explains. "We can inflict plenty of harm WITHOUT opening ourselves up to close range attacks."

Do you think we're close? I'm starting to get a bad feeling...
no subject
We're close enough that I'm anticipating an ambush at any moment.
[Hope you weren't hoping for comfort, Ippo.]
no subject
[He brought his hands up and tensed up his body; he wanted to be able to move at a moments notice after all. He was actually thankful for Colin's realism in this situation...it was something to keep him grounded in the here and now at the very least.]
no subject
If it's too much for you at the moment, hang back and watch our backs. You're not going to deal the first hit anyway. If it charges, I'm having everyone who can hit at range hit it hard.
no subject
[He gave his gauntlets a firm tap together to show he meant business; he was here for the truth, but if the Gasfella was going to give him a reason to attack...he was going to make sure to put it down for a permanent 10 count.]
I'll be sure to follow your lead on this, you know what you're doing.
no subject
You may want to be a little saner than I am.
[He grins at him.]
You're going in with laser gauntlets. I'm going in with grenades of varying payloads.
no subject
[He actually enjoyed walking around, the last thing he needed was to get a leg or both blown off accidentally.]
Wait...what do you mean by "Varying Payloads"?
[That sounded mildly disconcerting.]
no subject
Don't worry, though. I'm not carrying any biological or radioactive payloads.
no subject
[So long as his grenades didn't cause the Skyway to get torn out from under their feet, it should all be fine...hopefully.]
Let's hope it doesn't come to grenade throwing...right?
no subject
[Another grin, Ippo? You amuse him.]
Don't worry. I won't get sloppy with the grenades if it comes down to them. You'll probably want to give me room when we start, though.
