"You did at one time." Phantom thought to take off his mask, but knew he shouldn't because he knew if he did Tyke would no he was still alive.
how can I tip her off to who I am without giving it away? he though to himself.
"I'm kind of looking for a man by the name of Engel. Have you by chance seen him? I was a temp in his agency for a while and I was put in the squad under his. I wanted to thank him for letting me intern with his squad." Phantom said in his soft voice. "My name is Nick." He said offering his gloved hand for a handshake
I used to be good at Roleplaying.. But then I took an Arrow to the knee..."I figured as much... As for how to take down the Orchestrator... I feel that with the limited abilities we've been given, it will be utterly impossible for any of us to defeat him. If I were able to use my true abilities, I'd probably be able to do some damage... Maybe eliminate him if I went past the point of no return." He replied, "Depending on how much he wants a real challenge, it may be possible to arrange that kind of fight with him... But it's unlikely."
"Nah, doesn't solve anything... Just makes the stress ten times easier to deal with." Kota, likewise, finished off his. He wasn't about to let Ryu beat him when it came to alcohol consumption.
Adelina twisted a curl around her finger, "Oh... Mainly what they're going to do about their own little situation. Gear's trying to dance around it again..."
“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS.""I thought so… I mean, I know that if I was the one setting this up, I wouldn't give the contestants any abilities capable of harming me. Might even rig the cards so that they simply could not deal lasting damage to me." He paused.
"Come to think of it, I hope that's exactly what he did. I'd greatly prefer fighting with a gun loaded with blanks over fighting someone who's not affected by bullets. But still- I can't help but think that you're the only one of all with the resources to take him down."

He had no idea just how amazing it felt to have his brain go as he polished off his third beer.
"...dis be nice..."
He officially forgot about everything that happened today.
"Jack, you have debauched my sloth.""I won't deny having resources. In fact, that's what I'm sort of counting on... My coworkers. I was going to mark out some guidepoints earlier so that they could launch an organized attack at a later date. However, by the time all the necessary preparations would be made and the most balanced team assembled... Our time would be running short." He replied.
"Hmm... Heh. Maybe I could tempt the Orchestrator into a no-holds-barred fight. He seemed to get a thrill out of the battle earlier..."
"AHAHH! YOU'RE DRUNK B'FORE MEEE!" It was quite obvious the alcohol was finally starting to get to him as well.

The sprinting and power overusing has calmed him down somewhat, after the initial exhaustion resulted from the emotional breakout he has. Laying on the top of the hill, Dolphin stared into the unmeasurable depth of the universe.
"Who.... am I?" Dolphin said, silently to himself.

Now would be the time he took off his mask, she was a bit confused at what he said..
Phantom lifted the mask off of his face to reveal his icey blue eyes.
"Do you remember me now Tyke?"
He wasn't sure if Tyke would remember him from that day they first met. Hopefully she would but he wasn't sure.

I used to be good at Roleplaying.. But then I took an Arrow to the knee..."Bulllllllshit." The three bottles of strong alcohol without much interval between them weren't doing much for Kota's intelligence, "You carer cause Iwin and you loose..."
"Oh, possibly..." She felt like teasing the lawyer a bit, "... Possibly not..."
“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS.""...hay! yu neber sed ai lost, yu sed ai loose."
The time is around 10 PM.
"Jack, you have debauched my sloth.""Same d'frence. yer jusss' jelis's..." Kota managed to slur out, "Dun c'rect me, I'ma motherfucking lawyerrr..."
"Ooh, that's a scary look. What, you expecting me to blurt it out when it's much more fun to see your reaction first? Chichichichi... "

“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS.""NO TOUCHY. IT'S CREEPYY." He scooted over a little bit in an attempt to "escape" his pal. "HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF I TOUCHIED YOU?"
He then proceeded to poke Wolf repeatedly in the forehead.
"What? I told you... Still cranky?" Oh, how men amused her.
“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS.""ow ow ow ow ow ow."
He continued staring out into space glassy-eyed, then suddenly turned his attention to Kota.
"oh, yu has nomfangs."
Yes, 'nomfangs'.
"Jack, you have debauched my sloth.""So frriggin' whaat? S' d' youu. It aain't n'fin speshul..."
Adelina sighed again, "So, you're playing the boredom game, are you? Well, then... I'll just have to start doing things that might elicit a reaction... Every man has a breaking point."
She smirked again, hoping he would get the implication.
“DAMMIT WHEN I HEAR 'SPACE CQC' ALL I CAN THINK OF IS BIG BOSS WITH A FISHBOWL ON HIS HEAD, STRANGLING AN ASTRONAUT OUTSIDE THE ISS."

Damn, still not believing me. But pressing it would make me look even worse… I guess I should forget about it for now. It's still dangerous, but… if he was planning to just kill me first chance he got, he would've already. Either he wants to take down the Orchestrator, or he's waiting for something. Maybe I really am bait for Prosecution.
"What else? The Orchestrator. He's the real problem here, and after seeing a bit more of what he's capable of, I was hoping you might have some idea about how we can take him down, or at least what his deal is."
