Another gunshot is heard as Raven's eyes glance skyward. Normally glazed over with indifference and apathy, a quiet fire raged behind them. She was not amused. Her attitude strangely relaxes, but in a hostile sort of way. Like she's loosening up to take a swing at someone. "Oh hahahaha! Yeah that's cute. You gonna make me, scruffy?" she challenges Walter, kicking off from her position on the fence to stand on two feet. "What I need is for you to get. Lost," Raven hisses. "You're not gonna poke around the area, you're gonna turn around, walk back down that road, go to school, jerk each other off, I don't care. But whatever it is, you're not doing it here. Go. Away." She takes a few steps away from the group, turning her back toward them and taking a drag from her cigarette. It seems like she's having a hard time cooling off. "I will. Enjoy your circle-jerk. Now leave?" she prompts Alex's response. It appears as if Raven has no intention of moving from the gate. Meta Actions

Travis spins around, surprised by the familiar voice. His smile grows even wider when he sees who it is. "Amber? Hey! And hi, guys!" he says when he sees she's with a group. He trots over to them to shake hands and give hugs. "We heard there could be some good Wilds here, so we're gonna look around, maybe catch a few. Is that what brings you guys here?" He notices that a couple of them don't seem to really know who he is. "Hi, I'm Travis," he says to them, extending a gloved hand. "I love Tauros," he adds, as though it was all he needed to say to easily explain his outfit and definitely not make the introduction even stranger. He momentarily looks back out of concern for his friends, though. Raven seems particularly on edge today. |

It doesn't take long after the boy with the horns turns around for Stacy's face to brighten up. Hah, that's not a gang member! That's... "Travis! Good to see you!" he says, not wasting a second to return the handshake. "...Guess we're here for the same reasons, then! Really, man, good you're here. We can go catch Pokemon together now! Just gotta, well, not chase them off." "And you're here too Walty! And Alex! And, and..." he still carries the same smile as he turns to the new face, not quite getting the same response in return. "Eh, who are you again?" Edited by Sergeant Spaceless, Mar 25 2015, 09:55 AM.

(10 for the intuition check. Forgot to mark it in the roll thread). "I might. What do you care where we go?" Walter retorts. He turns to Stacy and notes the new arrivals. "Adventuring. Also, Walty?" he replies in a cheerier tone. |

"Waitwaitwaitwaitwait - hang on," Travis says in a hushed tone, attempting to quell the bubbling greetings and introductions. "Careful, guys. Something's really wrong with Raven." He turns and slowly begins to edge toward Raven, moving in as nonthreatening a fashion as possible. He keeps his hands up with his palms visible. "Raven?" he says, taking small, slow steps. "I know you don't like me. I know. That's okay. It is. But you know that I still like you anyway. You know I think that, on the inside, you're a great person, and I don't ever want anything bad to happen to you. Something's not right here, Raven. Are you in trouble? Please, you can tell me. My friends here, they're great people. We'll all help you with anything you need, right, guys?" |

"I can see that!" Serenity responds to Travis with a curt smile, "I'm Serenity, I'm a nursing student at the Yankee Medical Center." Nina doesn't respond at all, staring blankly at him and blinking once. Her headphones are over her ears and blaring what sounds like thrash metal at a volume high enough to be heard semi-clearly from a few feet away. "Suzy," Raven acknowledges icily, but Stacy knows that she isn't introducing herself. Suzy is a name that Michael had gotten the less friendly students of the school to call him and the older ones still used. He recognizes her as one of the loners and general mean people that hang out in Michael's clique, but he doesn't share any classes with her and rarely has an excuse to speak to her. Not that it stops her from knowing who Stacy is. "You might, or you will?" the goth taunts Walter, "And I don't. I could care less about where you go as long as it's not here. Is there something you don't understand about 'screw off', Walty?" Travis's approach has the opposite effect on Raven, and as he slowly steps toward her he can see her maintaining her distance with equal steps backward... right up until she backs into the fence behind her. "Hey! I-I said back off!" she stammers, her tough girl act wavering. She stills for a moment, as if contemplating what she's about to do, and just as if she had never hesitated reaches to her belt in one swift motion and flicks a Pokéball to the ground between the two of them. A furry, purple little beastie pops out, hissing a warning at the Tauros-looking boy. "All you had to do was go away! I don't want to hurt you!" she warns. Although she might say she doesn't want to hurt anyone, it looks like she's prepared to do it anyway. Edited by Corporal Lance, Mar 26 2015, 04:29 AM.

Alex was still reeling from that last come back, not so much because it hurt, but more because he didn't know what a circle jerk was. Oh the curse of youthful ignorance. He exchanges the most basic of greetings, but is too caught up in his on thoughts to actively participate. I know I've heard that somewhere before I just don't know where. Stupid brain always failing me. He's snapped out of his trance quickly upon hearing the sounds of hissing and Raven's warning. "Hey, what gives! If you don't want to hurt us then call off your hissing partner. What's going on here? We'd help you if you give us the chance." With that he snaps his pokeball off his belt swiftly calling out his partner. A bounce and a small flash later a snivy appears between Alex and Raven. "Ivy, sorry to call you out in such a bad situation, but be on guard. Not quite sure what's going on here and we might need your help." "Look, Raven. We want to help. Just give us a chance. We don't want a fight with you either, so we are on the same page." |

"Mostly the part where I should give a damn about what you have to say." Walter retorts, advancing to Travis's side and releasing his Sandile. "And in all honesty? I stopped caring about your health the moment you called me Walty. Steve, put that purple fuzzball down the moment it tries anything." |

Travis takes a chance and moves forward again, but just far enough so that he can hold both arms out to the sides in a gesture meant to encourage everyone to hold back. "Whoa, whoa, let's all stay calm, everybody. This doesn't have to go this way." He looks back at Raven, staring right into her eyes and choosing to ignore the possibly dangerous Pokemon near him, a decision that he is aware is quite risky. "I'm sorry," he says to her. "I won't come any closer. You don't want to hurt me, right? That's what you said, right? Okay, that's great, then. Please don't." He brings back his warm smile with that last sentence. "I have Charmander with me, but I haven't released him, see? And I won't. Not unless it's to help you in some way. I don't want to fight you, either, Raven. Instead of starting a fight with any of us, could you just let us help? Can we at least know what's going on out here? Nothing has to change, Raven. If you let me help you today, we don't have to be friends tomorrow, understand? You can treat me like you always have, so you shouldn't have any trouble with Michael or the rest of your group. So, please, Raven, can we have just one chance to help?" |

Alex steps just behind Travis turning to face the others in the group, "Walter, we aren't here to pick a fight with other people, even if they are a bit annoying. It would just get us bruised up before we can find anything really interesting. At worst, we are making another sprint back to the pokemon center to fix someone up who took too much punishment during a meaningless fight. Calm down man and think about this for a moment." He looks down at Ivy and makes his feelings very clear about what he intends to do, "Ivy, be on the look out for anyone else around here and let me know as soon as you see someone. Don't attack unless I say so, okay." He turns immediately turns back around to face Raven, fist clenched as his head swivels side to side slightly looking around for anything suspicious, "Raven, I stand with Travis on this one. You haven't given us a reason to attack you or your partner there. What's happening in there that we don't know about? I may have just met you, but this doesn't quite seem to be your style. Am I wrong?" |
