"They do appear to be the same species," Dis Baba noted, tilting his head to one side and making that odd throat-clicking noise again.
The Danse Macabre Codex"What the hell is a Snowman? I killed the GODDAMN BLACK-aw, screw it."
"'Least you quit wearing that stupid harlequin outfit. I'll give you props for that."
New RP!—From his quarters Saren stalked out, throwing up a claw at the ceiling, which switched back to the spectacular skies of Palaven. He sat down on one of the stiff turquoise wood chairs, watching the screens with a blank expression. PHANTOM coughed, then dematerialised the face, bringing up a globe of Reach in its place.—
"He could not know it. For it was not all a joke."Natsu got off the floor, his face green. Taking out a torch from his pack, he lit it on fire then started sipping the flames from it like chicken soup.
He watched the screens while he waited for his strength to come back, his pallor lightening a bit. "You go... girl." He rasped out, hoping the blue haired girl can beat the aliens.
Always be ready to do the unusual and unexpected.Subaru was breathing hard. All the attacks she had made during this entire mission on Reach had pushed her hard. She stared through hard eyes at the two aliens who were circling, not letting ether out of her sight. She still held the Covenant energy sword in her left hand, gripping it hard as she felt the heat from it. She slowly moved around, waiting for them to make their move. In the back of her mind she kept track of the golden Elite that was standing none too far off.
There! The one on the right charge, his anger over ridding his better judgment. Subaru feinted an inside move, like she had done before, and the Elite fell for it, pulling back slightly, just in time to catch full in the chest,
“Revolver Shoot!” Subaru was running out energy, and she wanted to conserve what she had left. She was slower when the other Elite rushed, and the sword managed to get through her defenses, but she twisted and its length shot along her stomach, with a crackling sound as it burnt through flesh.
Subaru gave out a cry of pain as she felt what seemed like fire to flow through her veins. She staggered slightly, and the Elite moved in for the kill.
"Oh dear," Dis Baba remarked, his brows furrowing as he turned his attention to the monitors. "It seems the one in white will not endure for much longer. A pity; still, she held out for as long as she could and took as many of them with her as was possible."
The Danse Macabre Codex"Considering that we were unable to interact with those who were depicted earlier until they completed the terms of this...'challenge'...I find that rather unlikely."

The Danse Macabre Codex"We were exiled? I like hats? You...blargle? Wargle fargle nurr?"
Jackspers pointed at himself, then at Deuce, then at PHANTOM, then at Raz, then back to Deuce, then back to himself, then at the monitor, and finally, back at himself.
"Nurr wha-wha-what? So...argh, this is just-"
New RP!Everyone was back. Gordon was happy. He hadn't even been in the challenge as long as everyone else and he'd felt the exhaustion that everyone else had been afflicted by. Needless to say, he was quite sure Subaru would be back soon, as well.

Blink watched the screens for a moment. She had reminded herself several times, even though it freaked her out to see Subaru getting attacked like that, that the other girl would be okay, even if she died. Still, she avoided looking at the screen when Subaru got hurt.
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."

"Sorry about that." Spriggan told the Doctor after pushing him down to evade the laser.
"I guess a welcome back salutations are in order."
