Welcome! You have entered [Neutral Grounds] at 2:04 am
[ Kidman ]: Try to always stay in character. (Use parentheses for out-of-character chats.)
[Neutral Grounds]: DetectiveAwesome has entered at 2:04 am
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (Chat hates me today guys, sorry)
[ Chase ]: It's easy... first you figure out what a car has -- engine, wheels, speed... then you change the numbers according to different cars.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I have two characters that drive crazy... and I still don't know much about cars
[ Chase ]: Honda Civic... 2009, VTEC engine, double over-head cam shaft... 0-60 in 9 seconds.
[ Chase ]: Maserati Gran Cabrio... 2011, V8, 0-60 in 6.7 seconds.
[ Carmen ]: 6.4
[ Chase ]: Right... something like that.
[ Chase ]: Keep it in your head, and you get a database.
[ Lee-Jordan ]: lol mates, so that's how spying works.
[ Carmen ]: It's exactly how spying works.
[ Chase ]: Yeah
[ Lee-Jordan ]: I can use some of this info to say find VILE bases?
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I don't think car info finds you VILE bases
[ Sarah-Nade ]: thats more geography
[ Kidman ]: I can use a carrot to locate tacos.
[ Chase ]: You'll have to convince me you're not using some kind of deus ex machina... and we're good.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: hahaha
[ Sarah-Nade ]: There could always be some low end henchmen in jail nearby and Lee 'talks to them'
[ Kidman ]: carrot ex machina
[ Kidman ]: WHY? WHY?
[ Kidman ]: gets dramatic
[ Chase ]: Whatever you need to do, fine. Stay away from Carmen.
[ Kidman ]: Always with the low end henchmen!
[ Sarah-Nade ]: ...?
[ Lee-Jordan ]: Ai mate, I can do that
[ Carmen ]: Does ACME currently have a detainment facility?
[ Chase ]: No. It's in the tower.
[ Carmen ]: That was my point.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Awww man, there goes my favorite place in the world
[ Chase ]: Point taken.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: they could be in a local jail
[ Sarah-Nade ]: San Francisco must have their own local jail somewhere
[ Lee-Jordan ]: Not sure I want to beat up a henchman to get info mate
[ Lee-Jordan ]: Roux already used that card for getting Carmen's locale
[ Sarah-Nade ]: true
[ Chase ]: That's why you'll have to be creative.
[ Kidman ]: Bad Roux, bad.
[ Kidman ]: Can't Lee disguise himself and try and get hired by us?
[ Kidman ]: Put him through training! That would be funny.
[ Kidman ]: Again!
[ Ivy ]: Is it that easy to infiltrate VILE?
[ Carmen ]: We could, but wouldn't that simply give him a free story card?
[ Chase ]: Don't give him anything.
[ Chase ]: Let him figure this out.
[ Kidman ]: Heh.
[ Chase ]: If he wants to be an agent, he has to start acting like one.
[ Kidman ]: You're so loved, Lee.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Man, Chase is particularly hard on Lee.
[ Lee-Jordan ]: No mate, it's gotta be damn hard.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: I mean... he's mean to all us grunts but Lee in particular.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: well Lee's got a history...
[ Ivy ]: (That's because he loves Lee most.)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: and he challenge's Devy's authority
[ Chase ]: Trust me, I'm not harder on him than I am any of you.
[ Kidman ]: (lol)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (lol don't tell Nevon that.)
[ Chase ]: If you were a CI wanting to be an agent, you'd go through the same treatment.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Before Devy came back a second time Lee was ACME's golden boy... and then Lee went psycho.
[ Kidman ]: psycho-er
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Then he went bad.
[ Ivy ]: Yeah, fun times.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: No, this was the first psycho
[ Chase ]: I should be more specific... prove to me you're not who they're calling psycho... and we'll work something out.
[ Lee-Jordan ]: That's easy mate, if he's a psychopath, he could really blend in.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: To be fair I wasn't there to experience this first hand
[ Chase ]: So, blend in.
[ Ivy ]: He had ACME fooled for long enough.
[ Chase ]: Work it out in your head, Lee.
[ Kidman ]: Make Chase feel less bad about releasing the Kracken
[ Lee-Jordan ]: how mate?
[ Chase ]: Think like a psychopath.
[ Kidman ]: Fruit baskets. Nothing says 'I'm a great guy' like a fruit basket.
[ Carmen ]: Here I wonder how this could ever be beneficial... to me.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: I think ACME would love to have Lee back.
[ Lee-Jordan ]: ai mate, it's not.
[ Ivy ]: What?
[ Chase ]: 'love to' is too strong.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I always thought of Lee as a fly in everyone's ointment but he's got enough skills to make his presence worthwhile
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Think about it! He's high profile... ACME loves that, he'll be a retribution story.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: They could use it for the press.
[ Carmen ]: Mm, like Philo, but better?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: And if he helps bring down VILE all the better
[ Ivy ]: ...I would hate ACME forever.
[ Chase ]: All great ideas, but he's going to have to prove he's not stupid.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: A certain Director could be pressured into doing it to make the company look better
[ Kidman ]: give Ivy a star.
[ Chase ]: You hear that, Lee? Not stupid.
[ Ivy ]: (I always secretly wanted one of these.)
[ Lee-Jordan ]: so....... smart?
[ Chase ]: ...
[ Chase ]: I'd facepalm, but really, that's beyond face-palming.
[ Kidman ]: (I know I've given you some before.;-))
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (for some reason I could imagine his face when he said that)
[ Carmen ]: (No pressure, there; Josh.)
[ Kidman ]: Lee, just get him some good Scotch. Everything will fall into place.
[ Kidman ]: takes star away from herself.
[ Lee-Jordan ]: Mate, Lee don't know much about scotch.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: ...what does Lee know much about?
[ Kidman ]: Use the internets!
[ Chase ]: Okay, you see that, Josh? Carmen isn't afraid of you.
[ Chase ]: *Jordan
[ Lee-Jordan ]: She's not?
[ Chase ]: No, and probably won't be for... ever.
[ Chase ]: If you want to actually be a threat, you have to not just talk like one.
[ Chase ]: Come to think of it, don't talk.
[ Kidman ]: You could always try these beer nuts, Lee. If she opens it, a snake comes out!
[ Chase ]: Don't say a word about what you want to do.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (LOL Kidman)
[Neutral Grounds]: SwedishFish has entered at 2:28 am
[ Kidman ]: Candy!
[ Ivy ]: Hey Gunnar!
[ Carmen ]: And why exactly is Chase giving Lee advise?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Hey Gunnar!
[ SwedishFish ]: Hej hej.
[ Carmen ]: Welcome, Mr. Svensson.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (Yeah was wondering why Chase was giving LEe such advice)
[ Chase ]: Come in, Gunnar.
[ Kidman ]: He feels that bad for Lee.
[ Chase ]: (I'm not giving Lee advice, I'm giving Josh advice.)
[ SwedishFish ]: Am I in trouble, Boss?
[ Chase ]: Gunnar -- you're fine.
[ Chase ]: Why?
[ Chase ]: Did you do something?
[ SwedishFish ]: ...No.
[ Kidman ]: Big syrup heist. Didn't you hear about it?
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (I need the advice, mates)
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (and I think Carmen should fear Chase more now, since he's giving Lee the ideas)
[ Ivy ]: (I think Lee is already plenty scary.)
[ Kidman ]: loves how the line blurs in here.
[ Carmen ]: (I've never doubted that Chase's ability to put himself into the shoes of a psycopath.)
[ Kidman ]: (lol)
[ Kidman ]: (...lol, right?)
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (lol)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (I guess for Lee its more think of what he has available to him - ACME is now the woken elephant, mad at VILE - perhaps making himself helpful to the cause would be more helpful to him)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (Sarah may have a point.)
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (So he tries to bring in Carmen?)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (ACME might be more open to giving Lee a chance knowing his record with Carmen - he's the only one in ACME history who caught her and kept her)
[ Kidman ]: (Truth is, Lee is limited by what he's allowed to do)
[ Chase ]: (Listen to me... Jordan. Forget Carmen.)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (I'd say work towards getting VILE, don't name Carmen)
[Neutral Grounds]: EarlJr has entered at 2:33 am
[ Chase ]: (Ignore that factor for a moment and focus on ACME.)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (except Carmen in this universe has never been caught.)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Wa hey!
[ Kidman ]: Hey Science!
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Mr. G! Join the party.
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (But won't getting Carmen make ACME happy?)
[ SwedishFish ]: Hej, Kopter.
[Neutral Grounds]: EarlJr has left at 2:34 am
[ Carmen ]: (Yes, for approximately 3.01 seconds.)
[Neutral Grounds]: EarlJr has entered at 2:35 am
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (Yes however if he goes after Carmen specifically it might remind people of his past)
[ Ivy ]: (Lee rejoining ACME... now there's a story.)
[ Chase ]: (Clever, speed of the 599 GTO-- let me focus)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (going for a more board VILE might help - or even looking like he's trying to help ACME and that finding VILE is just a 'side effect'
[ Kidman ]: (LOL)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: *broad
[ Chase ]: (Sarah has some good points.)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Mr. G, are you in?
[ Chase ]: (You want an ACME-oriented role.)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (Shocking, I know)
[ EarlJr ]: for a given value of in, yes
[ EarlJr ]: (I'm on a weird connection)
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (ai Euge mate)
[ Chase ]: Euge, great you dropped by.
[ EarlJr ]: (and I have a feeling I came in on the tail end of something very interesting)
[ Kidman ]: Evil is afoot.
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (so I drop the plan that Lee wants to kill Carmen, mates?)
[ Carmen ]: (Yes, I don't want to sound eager, but please yes.)
[ Ivy ]: (lol)
[ Chase ]: (Heh, that was cute.)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (I'd say make it his overall goal but not an immediate goal)
[ Kidman ]: (Sounds like an unbiased opinion)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (Yeah that plan of Lee has to brew a bit.)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (getting back into ACME's good graces would give him access to Carmen eventually)
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (aite, that was kind of the plan from the getgo)
[ EarlJr ]: (especially with the way ACME is being pulled as of late)
[ Chase ]: (Yeah, that was the plan, but you got sidetracked.)
[ Chase ]: (Get back into agent mode, give me some results.)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (Lee was one of the best agents right? Sure it wouldn't take long at all.)
[ Kidman ]: watches Lee reluctantly pack his demons back in a box.
[ Carmen ]: (I assume my 'yes' is but temporary?)
[ Chase ]: (Sorry, yeah. Lee's goals are still there.)
[ Kidman ]: I'll protect you!
[ Carmen ]: (Ah, well, what can he do?)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I don't think the word protect works here, Kiddo
[ EarlJr ]: no, go on
[ Kidman ]: tries to look heroic
[ EarlJr ]: this is bound to be amusing
[ SwedishFish ]: Heh
[ Lee-Jordan ]: Reboot, I got it, I'll have to think this over.
[ Chase ]: Take all the time you need.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (cool to see story progession real time, man.)
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (Mates, I feel like I'm asking permission. "So, THEN I can try kill her?")
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (lol what's with that smiley?)
[ Chase ]: We get it, you're evil.
[ Chase ]: Now show us something.
[ Kidman ]: Heh. Chase.
[ EarlJr ]: walk the walk with Mikal, Chase and I
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (I think trying to kill Carmen is a decent goal for a character like Lee)
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (How does anybody live up to that?)
[ Kidman ]: Because when you think evil, you think ACME.
[ Carmen ]: (As long as it's not his only goal, of course.)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Well ACMe does tend to lean a little in the gray realm
[ Ivy ]: a little?
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Ok, alot
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: lol
[ Chase ]: Grey's my favorite color.
[ EarlJr ]: that was hyperbole guys
[ EarlJr ]: you don't say
[ Kidman ]: Our grey is better.
[ Carmen ]: Grey isn't a color, it's a shade.
[ Kidman ]: I thought '50 shades of grey" was about Chase.
[ EarlJr ]: this again?
[ Kidman ]: It's not....
[ Chase ]: When I heard '50 shades of grey' I thought about how my tailor used to show me about 200 different types of grey for a suit.
[ Chase ]: And then I read wikipedia... and it wasn't anything like that.
[ Kidman ]: Nope.
[ Carmen ]: Mens suits are a lot more tedious. (On that topic)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: I think the ACME agents won't have any trouble accepting Lee back. We're always looking for people to look up to.
[ EarlJr ]: some would
[ Kidman ]: coughs
[ Ivy ]: have you learned nothing?!
[ Kidman ]: ACME.
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (aite but can I ask more from Chase?)
[ EarlJr ]: Nice knowing you Dan
[ Chase ]: (what kind of 'more'?)
[ Kidman ]: Man, the puppies just imprint on everything!
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: So what comes next?
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (just ideas mate, I'll get in touch when I have my first thoughts)
[ SwedishFish ]: ...Grey is a color.
[ Chase ]: (will do.)
[ EarlJr ]: We're over that Gunnar. Try to keep up.
[ SwedishFish ]: (Heheh. Just got back to the keyboard.)
[ Carmen ]: (Makes a note to blame none other than Chase if Lee starts being a nuisance.)
[ Chase ]: (Your note's well noted.)
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (lol)
[ Kidman ]: notes Chase's notation of said note.
[ EarlJr ]: notes Kidman's note
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: In Paradigm Shift?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Too many notes. Feels like class. Feels sleepy...
[Neutral Grounds]: DericStorm has entered at 2:57 am
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (ai deric mate)
[ SwedishFish ]: Deric.
[ DericStorm ]: allo everybody
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Aye. Are we waiting for...oh there he is, Deric? Or Ivy's 'one week later'?
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I suppose we await more from ACME.
[ EarlJr ]: hey Deric
[ Ivy ]: Hey Deric.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: hey Deic!
[ Kidman ]: Hey mate
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I'm not sure, you'll have to consult Chase.
[ Chase ]: Deric, come in.
[ EarlJr ]: We're in between topics
[ SwedishFish ]: Hear it, Boss?
[ Kidman ]: We're teaching Lee how to refine his evil.
[ Carmen ]: Not all of us.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Poor Josh. Glad he came in today.
[ DericStorm ]: maybe you could teach him to pull his lower lip over head and swallow
[ Chase ]: You prefer him a whiny CI?
[ Carmen ]: I would, yes.
[ Kidman ]: Oh Stormy.
[ Carmen ]: But he can't stay there, can he?
[ EarlJr ]: why are you so complicit about this Kidman?
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I'm glad as well. He's rarely on.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Because she's got a thing for Mr Tall, Dark and Psycho
[ Kidman ]: I have my reasons....:evil:
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Its called sex.
[ SwedishFish ]: ...
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: The sooner we get Lee into play, the sooner we can plan around him.
[ Chase ]: ...
[ Lee-Jordan ]: ...
[ EarlJr ]: yes, thank you Sarah
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (and I killed the room)
[ Kidman ]: Er....
[ DericStorm ]: blinks repeatedly
[ EarlJr ]: for saying the blatantly obvious
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (I win.)
[ Kidman ]: sure, if you like.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (room don't seem dead. just silent.)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (IC silence is golden.)
[ Ivy ]: I'm getting a drink.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Mm, trouble this way comes.
[ Chase ]: Make that two, Ivy. I'll owe you a beer later.
[ SwedishFish ]: I shall get one, too.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (I don't think I've ever caused this much awkward silence in a sitting... its like a rite of passage)
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: You'd rather he stay dormant?
[ Ivy ]: *gets out a case of beer*
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I've been enjoying his dormancy, I suppose.
[ Ivy ]: You don't owe me anything Chase, it's all on Neutral Grounds's tab.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: AND I drive people to drink...
[ SwedishFish ]: (Confound that 'e')
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Gotta say, you have talent Sarah.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: *takes a beer*
[ EarlJr ]: give me one. I need to break it over Sarah's head and start a proper bar brawl
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I just calls 'em like I sees 'em
[ Chase ]: *raises beer bottle* Cheers to Sarah.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Sorry love. I was trying to flush him out
[ EarlJr ]: cheers
[ Ivy ]: *cheers to Sarah*
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Ok, now you're all just being sarcastic
[ DericStorm ]: of course
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: *Laughs* No, he deserves to be brought to light.
[ EarlJr ]: bravo! You win a prize
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: I like my enemies out in the open, truthfully.
[ EarlJr ]: your sarcasm detector isn't completely broken at least
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: But that might be rash.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: We've given Josh chances to bring Lee up before, but he's been too shy on those accounts.
[ SwedishFish ]: How can she know? She is never sober in here.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I'm sure we'll need a lot more work with him before he develops a strong Lee Jordan.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I'm also surprised that Chase took the lead on giving him advice.
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (lol)
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Apparently Josh has become rather insistant.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: insistent.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I never drink enough here to get truly drunk...
[ EarlJr ]: those five minutes it takes for her to jimmy the lock on the alcohol closet doest count, huh?
[ Chase ]: What's our next topic?
[ DericStorm ]: yeah, you do that before you get here
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (ok, that one got me laughing Euge)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: You should stop trying to lock it in the first place, dear
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Chase has been trying to think of something for the past few days now.
[ Chase ]: I didn't even know we had a lock.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Sarah's love of alcohol seems to be the next topic.
[ EarlJr ]: (I aim to please)
[ EarlJr ]: meh, it's not my lock
[ Chase ]: Only alcohol?
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Do we really have to talk about ME all the time?
[ SwedishFish ]: Only when you are not talking about you.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: and guys in uniform?
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: *Laughs* It's just ironic.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: There you go, Danny-boy
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: That much of his idea would be coming from Chase.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: though I'll take them out of uniform too.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: zing!
[ SwedishFish ]: ...
[ EarlJr ]: facepalms
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Yeah, he doesn't feel too comfortable about it.;-)
[ DericStorm ]: chuckles
[ EarlJr ]: good thing ACME doesn't have uniforms
[ Chase ]: Yeah, someone tried it once...
[ Ivy ]: wasn't there talk of one?
[ Chase ]: I don't even remember when because it was erased from history...
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Like I said, the ACME girls should have uniforms.
[ Kidman ]: How cute would that be???
[ SwedishFish ]: ...Why?
[ EarlJr ]: what
[ DericStorm ]: explain Danny
[ DericStorm ]: or is this leading to a catholic school girl train of thought?
[ SwedishFish ]: The girls had uniforms in Stockholm. They were called pyjamas.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: what? didn't you all hear this before? It would be awesome.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: If the girls get uniforms the guys get them... its only fair
[ Chase ]: Hold your thinking cap, Dan.
[Neutral Grounds]: Emmesey-Squire has entered at 3:14 am
[ Chase ]: Before you get in trouble.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Hey Em.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: YEah, will hold on to my thinking cap.
[ Kidman ]: Hey mate
[ Lee-Jordan ]: Hey Squire.
[ DericStorm ]: hello
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: No freaking way.
[ EarlJr ]: I don't want a uniform. I already do business casual
[ EarlJr ]: hey Squire
[ SwedishFish ]: distances himself from Squire.
[ Ivy ]: What's wrong with what I wear to work?
[ Chase ]: Ivy, stop thinking there's something wrong with you.
[ DericStorm ]: not a thing
[ SwedishFish ]: Nothing, Miss Monaghan.
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (lol on Chase's answer)
[ EarlJr ]: not a thing Ives
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Right, whatever I say about the uniforms is just going to land me in hot water.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Carmen, Chase, Ivy, and Lee Jordan at the same time. I'm surprised this place is intact.
[ SwedishFish ]: What is the actual dress code, Boss?
[ EarlJr ]: we try to keep it civil
[ Ivy ]: Right. Not going to press the matter.
[ Chase ]: Shirt, pants, no short shorts and no tiny skirts... I think they're measured by inches.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I dunno... Devy in short shorts isn't a bad mental image
[ Chase ]: Same as just about any university.
[ SwedishFish ]: ...
[ Kidman ]: Ivy, what do the little straps on your pants do?
[ Sarah-Nade ]: grins
[ EarlJr ]: and whatever is comfortable to chase people in
[ Ivy ]: What straps? I'm wearing jeans.
[ DericStorm ]: jeans or daisy dukes?
[ Kidman ]: The ones you wear in the pictures with the bomber jacket
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (I tried, mates, can't see Chase in anything but a suit)
[ Chase ]: Keep it that way, Jordan.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (honestly I agree)
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: I can see him in an Indiana Jones outfit
[ DericStorm ]: (Chase is rockin the Johnny Cash look)
[ Ivy ]: Daisy dukes? In a cabin in the woods?
[ Lee-Jordan ]: (Mates, gotta run early morn for me.)
[ DericStorm ]: :grin:
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: scary
[ EarlJr ]: later Lee
[ Chase ]: Have a good one, Jordan
[ Kidman ]: Bye Lee
[ SwedishFish ]: (See you, Lee.)
[ Ivy ]: (later Lee)
[ Carmen ]: Farewell, Lee.
[ DericStorm ]: (bye)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Later Lee!
[Neutral Grounds]: Lee-Jordan has left at 3:23 am
[ Ivy ]: Kidman, the straps are just part of the cargo pants.
[ Kidman ]: They don't do anything?
[ Ivy ]: Like how Batman has a utility belt.
[ Ivy ]: You can hook stuff to them while zip lining and all.
[ Kidman ]: Oh! Well then they do do something!
[ EarlJr ]: good spot to hang handcuffs if you don't have a belt
[ Kidman ]: Good. Almost lost a bet there.
[ SwedishFish ]: The little stalker gambles?
[ Kidman ]: Stalker?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: heh heh
[ Kidman ]: Who do I stalk?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Carmen
[ SwedishFish ]: Miss Sandiego, Lee Jordan, Miss Monaghan...
[ Kidman ]: ....uh huh.
[ Carmen ]: Does she?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Yup
[ Carmen ]: I've always thought she was rather forward about it.
[ EarlJr ]: nuance
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Well stalking doesn't have to be secretive.
[ Kidman ]: Forward about what?
[ Kidman ]: The hell?
[ Ivy ]: Well if it makes you feel better she doesn't stalk me.
[ Carmen ]: Well, then I wouldn't categorise it as 'stalking'.
[ Ivy ]: She did get obsessive about finding a video... but other than that she stays as far from me as possible.
[ SwedishFish ]: Everytime you are in the room she announces something she saw you do.
[ Kidman ]: If by stalk you mean 'work for' then yes.
[ DericStorm ]: that's why i prefer to call you "groupie"
[ SwedishFish ]: And where was this picture with these pants?
[ DericStorm ]: news archives
[ Ivy ]: Really, let's drop the pants issue.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (I just read drop the pants.)
[ Kidman ]: I work for VILE! Ivy is common knowledge
[ Kidman ]: (lol)
[ Chase ]: (Yeah, I read that too Dan)
[ EarlJr ]: (oh good, so it wasn't just me)
[ DericStorm ]: (resisting the urge to make bad joke)
[ EarlJr ]: (on behalf of us all, I am so terribly sorry)
[ Kidman ]: (give in)
[ Chase ]: Should probably do some kind of game about now...
[ Chase ]: Topic-changing games.
[ Ivy ]: Yeah, good idea.
[ Kidman ]: As for Master, isn't it your job to stalk her?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Game!
[ EarlJr ]: not exactly
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (quick back and forths are awesome but mean words need to be more carefully chosen)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: *plays game music--which is a rendition of "hot problems"*
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (*it means
[ Chase ]: (take your time, Sarah)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Turn that song off!
[ Sarah-Nade ]: What are you trying to do, poison us!?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: heh
[ SwedishFish ]: :weird:
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Do not google that song everyone!
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: I will not be responsible for ear bleeding.
[ DericStorm ]: :weird:
[ Chase ]: I won't.
[ Ivy ]: (Damnit, too late.)
[ EarlJr ]: duly noted
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: ok
[ Kidman ]: Look what you did, Candy.
[ Kidman ]: Shame.
[ Ivy ]: so... game?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Q & A
[ Chase ]: Okay, since I said the word 'game' first, I'll ask.
[ Kidman ]: Master goes first, apparently.
[ Kidman ]: Oh.
[ Carmen ]: I'll leave that to Chase, who kindly volunteered.
[ Chase ]: Right... in alphabetical order, pick the person whose name comes after yours, and give a word or two that describes them.
[ Chase ]: You don't need to explain, just write the name of the person, followed by the words.
[ SwedishFish ]: (Gotta ask, name, or username?)
[ Chase ]: (Uh... username, since we can all see)
[ DericStorm ]: ok, DetectiveAwesome = enthusiastic
[ SwedishFish ]: (Haha. Guess who I get?)
[ EarlJr ]: (got it)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: ...Carmen
...Chase
...Deric STorm
...Detective Awesome
...Earl Jr
...Emmessey-Squire
...Ivy
...Kidman
...Sarah Nade
...Swedish Fish
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: incase anyone had trouble.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Gunnar - cool, fun, swedish
[ SwedishFish ]: Heh. Tack.
[ Kidman ]: Sarah; Tough, loyal.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Ivy-Racoonish (meaning cute yet fierce)
[ Chase ]: Deric -- capricious, hasty
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Mr. G: resourceful, patient and secretive.
[ EarlJr ]: Emmessey: subtle
[ Ivy ]: Kidman = stubborn, devoted
[ DericStorm ]: Chase, you think I'm Impulsive and unpredictable?
[ Ivy ]: ...wait Racoonish?
[ Chase ]: Deric, the capricious was more for your humor
[ DericStorm ]: ah
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: this is good
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: anyone didn't answer?
[ DericStorm ]: i was gonna take it as a compliment either way
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Carmen!
[ DericStorm ]: Carmen
[ EarlJr ]: of course
[ Kidman ]: Candy
[ Carmen ]: Chase: silence
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: and Gunnar
[ DericStorm ]: neither did gunnar
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: hah!
[ SwedishFish ]: Miss Sandiego: Absurd, but brilliant. Random, but organized.
[ Kidman ]: :weird:
[ Carmen ]: Thank you, Mr. Svensson.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: You forgot wiley.
[ Chase ]: Wait, silence?
[ DericStorm ]: what is she, a coyote?
[ EarlJr ]: just accept it at face value Chase
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Just silence for boss...
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Her deeper feelings are hidden behind an absurd but brilliant mind.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Hah!
[ Carmen ]: He invokes it, he enjoys it, he rarely leaves it.
[ Carmen ]: I thought it suited.
[ Chase ]: ... sure.
[ Chase ]: Deric's up.
[ Ivy ]: That fits.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: So does Racoonish for Ivy
[ SwedishFish ]: ...
[ EarlJr ]: anyways, Deric?
[ DericStorm ]: ok, name one or two people that you have not worked with yet that you would like to?
[ DericStorm ]: For example, I would like to work a case with either Suhara or Mikal
[ Kidman ]: Sarah and Vic.
[ SwedishFish ]: (Good one, Deric.)
[ DericStorm ]: (i try)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: I'd like to work with Mr. G and Chase.
[ SwedishFish ]: Kopter and...
[ SwedishFish ]: Hej!
[ SwedishFish ]: That was my answer!
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Heh heh, it's okay Gunnar we're ACME. It happens.
[ Kidman ]: Now you must fight!
[ Kidman ]: Or not.
[ Ivy ]: See how civil we are?
[ SwedishFish ]: Kopter and Tanya, heh.
[ Kidman ]: puts away 'Mortal Combat' music
[ EarlJr ]: Lee and Ivy
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Sarah and Eartha
[ Ivy ]: Tanya and Cali.
[ DericStorm ]: (I'm have a Charlie's Angels vision here)
[ Kidman ]: Chase's angels
[ DericStorm ]: (or more of a Danger Girls vibe)
[ Kidman ]: dammit, Storm beat me
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: awesome.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: just awesome.

[ Chase ]: Probably Gunnar and Storm. I've worked with almost everybody else here and there.
[ Ivy ]: Yeah, I figured we'd get a cool team name.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Except my cousin.
[ Ivy ]: And Euge, you want the mission to fail?
[ EarlJr ]: You keep saying that word Dan. I do not think it means what you think it means.
[ Kidman ]: (lol)
[ EarlJr ]: I have my reasons
[ SwedishFish ]: (Euge, that was awesome. :P )
[ Chase ]: Chip, come in.
[ Chip_Masters ]: Hi...
[ Chase ]: We're doing a little q & a
[ EarlJr ]: (and on that unintentionally vague note, I have to head out)
[ SwedishFish ]: He lives.
[ EarlJr ]: (later everyone)
[ SwedishFish ]: Vi ses, Kopter.
[Neutral Grounds]: EarlJr has left at 4:01 am
[ Ivy ]: Hey Chip!
[ Kidman ]: Bye Science
[ Chase ]: Take care, Euge.
...Next question... Dan?
[ Kidman ]: Hey,
[ Kidman ]: ...never mind
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Me? Did everyone answer?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Carmen didn't
[ SwedishFish ]: Sarah did not.
[ Chase ]: (sarah's busy)
[ Carmen ]: Are we only speaking about cases, or heists as well?
[ Chase ]: I think it's working with someone in general.
[ DericStorm ]: yep
[ Carmen ]: Then Tanya and Mikal.
[ Chase ]: Wait, no, you've worked with Mikal.
[ Ivy ]: aren't they both ACME?
[ Carmen ]: He doesn't know that.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: ...Carmen's worked with Mikal?
[ Chase ]: Aliases count.
[ DericStorm ]: wow
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: what?
[ Carmen ]: All right, then I'm trading Mikal for Daniel Ainsworth.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (by that I mean what!?)
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: I wouldn't mind working with Sammy.
[ SwedishFish ]: (Sammy? Has she been around?)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Heh... I'm happy to be traded.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: (yeah last week)
[ Chase ]: (I almost picked Lee, but he needs some building first)
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: No one picked me.
[ Chase ]: Okay, next question... Emmesey
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: F88k
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Nope, my question
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: gimmme a sec
[ Chase ]: Sorry -- Dan
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Then Em
[ Chase ]: Right, wasn't thinking
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: goddy more time
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: What does your character wear to Neutral Grounds?
[ DericStorm ]: we have to wear stuff in here?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (Since we just had this conversation earlier, and to me everyone wears what they wear in their profile photo.)
[ DericStorm ]: well color me embarrassed
[ Kidman ]: Lol
[ SwedishFish ]: (Heh)
[ DericStorm ]: just kidding. t-shirt and jeans
[ Ivy ]: Do we have to keep reminding Deric to put on clothes?
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (*headdesk*)
[ Kidman ]: You mean I didn;t have to draw from imagination?
[ DericStorm ]: you don't seem to mind me as i am, Princess
[ Kidman ]: 8s
[ Chase ]: Somebody put up a sign on the driveway.
[ DericStorm ]: ;-)
[ Ivy ]: Hey I'm an incredibly tolerant person.
[ DericStorm ]: you can stop staring now, Ivy
[ Ivy ]: At what?
[ DericStorm ]: :grin:
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: He's baiting you.
[ Chase ]: I'm usually in an oxford shirt and work pants. Usually, they're grey.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Boss and his grey... classic.
[ Kidman ]: generally something oversized that I found in the goodwill bin.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Chase should be called Mr. Noir
[ SwedishFish ]: Jeans and a t-shirt, usually yellow or gray. Collared shirts and a jacket in winter.
[ Carmen ]: I'm in a lot of things, but rarely the red trench coat and hat.
[ Kidman ]: continues to push away the sting of the last question.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Dan is usually in a sweater or T-shirt and khakis or jeans.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: I personally wear the Akatsuki uniform cause it looks cool.
[ Chase ]: Jeans and t-shirts seems to be the ACME uniform.
[ Ivy ]: (Aw... *gives kidman a heart*)
[ DericStorm ]: even the stupid kabuki mask, Em?
[ Ivy ]: Guilty of jeans and T-shirt as well. Seems standard ACME.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: What kabuki mask?
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (ok, I've decided there needs to be a word for when you're writing at a great clip and suddenly everything you write your character saying sounds horrible when you say it back to yourself.)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (backwash.)
[ SwedishFish ]: (I forgot. Gunnar wears wind pants a lot.)
[Neutral Grounds]: Chip_Masters has left at 4:20 am
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (I always thought Ivy wore what she wore in the cartoons.)
[ Chase ]: (Dan.... she's 25)
[ Ivy ]: (and it was a bit 90's.)
[ Chase ]: (a bit?)
[ Ivy ]: (a lot 90's.)
[ Ivy ]: Though I'd keep the jacket... and the tank top.
[ Chase ]: (if it was any more 90s, we'd still be in the 90s.)
[ DericStorm ]: and we thank you for that, Ivy
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (lol)
[ Kidman ]: (@ Ivy -:-))
[ SwedishFish ]: (Heheh)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: and hey! lol IC too.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Hey. cargo pants are cool
[ Sarah-Nade ]: and handy for when you want to smuggle a beer into the movies
[ SwedishFish ]: If you ski in winter.
[ Ivy ]: (lol - Sarah!)
[ Chase ]: Why can't you bring beer into the movies?
[ DericStorm ]: ok, how about we move on to the next question?
[ Chase ]: Right, Emmesey's up.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Em is up.
[ SwedishFish ]: Good idea, Deric.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: .....
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: If you could meet/interact with one person in time who would it be?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Carmen Sandiego!
[ SwedishFish ]: Erwin Rommel.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (That's IC anyway... Dan would love to meet her in RP.)
[ Chase ]: Any time right? Past, present or future?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Oh yeah I want in character and non character answers
[ DericStorm ]: My father from about 22 years ago
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: time doesn't matter
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: past, present or future
[ DericStorm ]: (Harrison Ford)
[ Ivy ]: Queen Boudica.
[ DericStorm ]: why do I think she'd love to meet you as well, Ivy
[ Ivy ]: You have to look up to someone in life.
[ Ivy ]: (Nelson Mandela)
[ SwedishFish ]: (Joan of Arc)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (OOC: The woman who plays Carmen on this site.)
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Rod Serling, Stan Lee C.S. Lewis and JK Rowling (so I can punch her in the face)
[ DericStorm ]: (why the pitcher of Haterade for Harry's creator?)
[ SwedishFish ]: (Really? I thought you would be a Harry Potter fan.)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Beethoven
[ Kidman ]: Probably Chase, I suppose.
[ Carmen ]: Mm, André-Marie Ampère (OOC: Archimedes)
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: (she talked smack about C.S. Lewis)
[ Chase ]: (Kidman -- whoa, thanks... you 'suppose'?)
[ Kidman ]: (It's complicated.;-))
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: (it was very very bad smack)
[ Chase ]: I'd like to meet my first grandkid... assuming I have one.
[ Kidman ]: (OOC - not sure. Really, the Queen from my own novel(
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Oh I like Sarah's answer.
[ Chase ]: (OOC, probably my dad.)
[ Kidman ]: )
[ DericStorm ]: i think you'd have to have a kid first, El Jefe
[ Kidman ]: (Tolkien talked smack to CS too)
[ DericStorm ]: (How do you feel about Jim Butcher, Em?)
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: (not as bad as Rowling did.)
[ Ivy ]: Chase just racked up family man points.
[ SwedishFish ]: Heheh
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: (Who?)
[ DericStorm ]: (the author of the Dresden Files)
[ Kidman ]: Or Master as a different person.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: (Never read them)
[ DericStorm ]: (I think you'd like them)
[ Carmen ]: Different person?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Oh and this particular writer over at MS.
[ SwedishFish ]: Miss Monaghan?
[ Ivy ]: my turn?
[ SwedishFish ]: Ja.
[ Kidman ]: doesn't really know how to explain.
[ Ivy ]: Favorite ice cream flavor.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Sherbert
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Chocolate.
[ Carmen ]: Vanilla
[ Chase ]: easy, vanilla
[ Chase ]: ...
[ Kidman ]: Rocky road.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: :clap:
[ DericStorm ]: vanilla
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (that was for Chase and Carmen's double answer.)
[ SwedishFish ]: Cookies and cream.
[ Ivy ]: Cherry vanilla.
[ Ivy ]: Kidman?
[ Kidman ]: Rocky road?
[ Ivy ]: No I mean it's your turn.
[ Kidman ]: Oh
[ Kidman ]: Huh.
[ DericStorm ]: what about sarah's answer
[ Kidman ]: If you were an animal, what would you be?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Sarah hasn't been answering for a few questions now.
[ DericStorm ]: oh
[ DericStorm ]: wolf
[ Ivy ]: *looks at Emmesey* not a racoon.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Dragon naturally.
[ SwedishFish ]: A big dog.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: A Ferret.
[ Ivy ]: Tiger.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: You mean your not cute to look at and a fierce opponent in battle?
[ Chase ]: A raptor... any bird of prey.
[ Ivy ]: I can do without the cute.
[ Kidman ]: A bird of some sort.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Too bad.
[ Kidman ]: Maybe a pigeon.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: You are cute; You gotta deal with it.
[ DericStorm ]: Ivy's one of those people who doesn't realize how pretty she is
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Nice one Kidman.
[ Kidman ]: Peace in simplicity....
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: and greedy as hell
[ Ivy ]: *raises an eyebrow*
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: that is a pigeon
[ Sarah-Nade ]: ok back
[ SwedishFish ]: Miss Monaghan, what did you to them?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Where's Carmen
[ Kidman ]: Not greedy. They just enjoy surviving.
[ SwedishFish ]: None has any good to say about you?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Sarah- question is: what animal would you be?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: 's answer
[ Carmen ]: I don't answer that question directly.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: honey badger
[ DericStorm ]: that was a compliment Ivy
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (chat messed up my whole dialogue)
[ Kidman ]: (lol)
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: a fox is what she is
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Carmen I mean
[ DericStorm ]: (why did i know that's what you would say, Sarah)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (because we all know why)
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Her and her wileyness
[ Carmen ]: As for animal, I'm partial to panthers.
[ Chase ]: Who's up?
[ Chase ]: Sarah?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Sarah's up.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: and just in time.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: yesh
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: ...
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: do we get back to her later?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: ....I guess
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Gunnar can go first and we'll do Sarah when she gets back.
[ SwedishFish ]: AJ...
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (sorry, it keeps getting busy all of a sudden, might want to skip me for asking a question)
[ SwedishFish ]: If you were not with ACME or VILE, where would you be, and what would you work?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: I'd be homeless on the streets of SF...
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: just kidding, I'd be a waiter.
[ Chase ]: That's aiming high, Dan.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: I'd probably go back to my dayjob of ruling a country
[ SwedishFish ]: (Haha! Chase.)
[ Kidman ]: (Hey, look what someone posted on VILE's FB!)
[ Kidman ]: http://www.campusmoviefest.com/movies/15069-lady-in-red
[ Ivy ]: I'd go into competition martial arts.
[ Chase ]: Uh... CIA for me, or contract jobs.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: singing and teaching piano
[ Sarah-Nade ]: and/or bored out of my mind
[Neutral Grounds]: DetectiveAwesome has left at 5:03 am
[ Kidman ]: (So that's what Chase looks like?)
[Neutral Grounds]: DetectiveAwesome has entered at 5:03 am
[ SwedishFish ]: I would hope to sprint, wherever the best races are.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (watching the vid, Kidman.)
[ Chase ]: (can't see the video)
[ DericStorm ]: i would either be in Fairview, Nebraska teaching high school history or i'd be working for the Fields Museum in Chicago
[ Kidman ]: (That's you, DA, in the sunglasses)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (I know, tracing the phone signal with a macbook... I so genius.)
[ Kidman ]: (Really? It won't show? I'll download and send)
[ Kidman ]: (lo)
[ Kidman ]: (Really? I can't spell 'lol'?)
[ SwedishFish ]: (Probably isn't necessary.)
[ Chase ]: (Heh)
[ SwedishFish ]: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0bg_h7IfOE&feature=player_embedded#!
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: If everyone has answered, Carmen's up.
[ SwedishFish ]: But Carmen has not answered...
[ Carmen ]: Must have slipped my mind.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Yeah right
[ Carmen ]: I'd be handling a covert operation somewhere, I need my odd thrills.
[ Carmen ]: But if I told you where, I may have to dispose of you.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (Bridgewater State... I was going to go to that college)
[ Chase ]: Heh
[ Chase ]: (and heh to the video)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: cool.
[ Kidman ]: ('implausible intellegence')
[ Sarah-Nade ]: (though my opinion of her sultry voice is 'don't do it unless you have a proper mic')
[ Carmen ]: My question then?
[ Chase ]: Floor's yours.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: yes
[ Carmen ]: What story does your family (or friends) always tell about you?
[ SwedishFish ]: Ah...heh...
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: ....
[ Kidman ]: throws up her hands and leaves the room.
[ Chase ]: Not even friends, Kidman?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: You already know my cousin thinks I'm evil.
[ Chase ]: But you had your VILE gang... that you listed... that one time.
[ Kidman ]: (nope... Invaribaly this game gets her)
[ Chase ]: Well, then I have a story I always tell about Kidman.
[ Kidman ]: (She had aquaintnces, but no one really knew her)
[ SwedishFish ]: Heh. Jaså?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: As do I
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: They talk about when I was about five, I got my head stuck in the gate. Everyone thought I was just playing outside, so no one came for like 8 hours. No one knew why I didn't keep screaming for help. I just fell asleep stuck to the gate when they found me.
[ Ivy ]: Oh Dan.
[ Carmen ]: Daniel, I laughed, thank you.
[ SwedishFish ]: (Danny, that was a great one. I can see your character that way. :D)
[ Kidman ]: peeks back in.
[ Kidman ]: That made me laugh despite myself...
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: See, sometimes having no story is better than having one, Kidman.
[ DericStorm ]: my friends from college always like to remind me of how i got the phone numbers from an entire sorority
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: They most often talk about how I took over Chuck E Cheeses and declared my myself King
[ Ivy ]: They talk about the time I ran away from home because I refused to wear a frilly pink dress that my mother bought.
[ Chase ]: Kidman, I think my most memoriable bit with you was when you hid under a chair the first time we met and wouldn't come out.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: I see that.
[ Kidman ]: smiles thankfully.
[ Ivy ]: (That's a nice one of Kidman.)
[ Carmen ]: I remember that.
[ SwedishFish ]: Heh
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: I remember Kid making fun of that rich guy and his drinking habits
[ Sarah-Nade ]: My mother will always tell the story of when I was baking with my sister Chiffon - and ended up covered in flour and water
[ Kidman ]: is immediatly happy again
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I really don't remember but she swears it was the cutest thing ever
[ Kidman ]: Flakes!
[ SwedishFish ]: My granfather would tell me the best stories.
[ Kidman ]: Awwww....
[ Chase ]: I don't remember much of what my family used to tell... but there was one time where I had to wear a suit at a cousin's wedding... for some reason, I stole the bride's veil, hid in the confession box, and told my mother that I wouldn't come out because... I didn't want to get married.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Thats adorable
[ Ivy ]: aww...
[ SwedishFish ]: (HAHAhahahaha!!!!!)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: and the girls faint.
[ Carmen ]: *Laughs* How old were you?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Hah.
[ DericStorm ]: 21
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: while us guys know... we know exactly how wise little Chase was...
[ Kidman ]: Holy frack, Chase! That is off the chart!
[ SwedishFish ]: My grandfather told me about a time when his mother required a Markka to buy sugar for his birthday cake.
[Neutral Grounds]: Ti-Jean has entered at 5:26 am
[ Kidman ]: Is that a gun?
[ Kidman ]: Hey Ti-Jean
[ Chase ]: I was probably 6 or 7... and was supposed to walk with the flower girl.
[ Ti-Jean ]: Salut all!
[ SwedishFish ]: It was when Finland was part with Soviet Union.
[ Ivy ]: Hey Ti.
[ SwedishFish ]: The money was hard to get.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: 'Ello there Ti-Jean.
[ Chase ]: Ti-Jean, come in.
[ Ti-Jean ]: Salut Mlle Ivy.
[ Ti-Jean ]: et Bonjour to Mon Chase et Mon Awesome
[ DericStorm ]: allo
[ SwedishFish ]: ...Ti-whatever.
[ Ti-Jean ]: Mon Gunnar.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Yo Jean
[ SwedishFish ]: So, my grandfather went and stole his neighbor's dog. *laughs*
[ SwedishFish ]: When his neighbor found him, he asked pay for walking the dog.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: If Chase hadn't said he had a story of you, I wonder if Emmesey would say so on his own?
[ Ti-Jean ]: "Yo" a toi aussi Esmey.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: I'm not sure. Kidman always dreads Q & A.
[ Ivy ]: *laughs*
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: *Laughs* But they were lovely thoughts, nonetheless.
[ SwedishFish ]: The man was kind enough, though. He gave him the markka.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: But MC's answer made her smile.
[ DericStorm ]: :weird:
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: She's holding up.
[ SwedishFish ]: ...What, Deric?
[ Chase ]: Am I up next, has anybody not answered?
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I'll have to cater to Avery soon.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Think you're free to go boss
[ Chase ]: Right...
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: I know I shouldn't, but I'll probably go outside.
[ Chase ]: Tell us about an experience in your life that you thought was really bad, but turned out to be good.
[ DericStorm ]: i just think it wierd that not only did he steal the dog but got paid by the victim for it
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Why shouldn't you go outside?
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Any bit of the outdoors should help, yes?
[ SwedishFish ]: He was young. And he 'borrowed' the dog, really.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: I'm supposed to stay in bed today...and it's cold.
[ DericStorm ]: my parents both dying within a year of each other. it taught me to appreciate my friends and family
[ SwedishFish ]: You trust not that Finns have kind hearts?
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Ah, has that ever stopped you?
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: But I just can't.
[ DericStorm ]: i didn't say that, Gunnar
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: To answer Chase: There was this one time I tried to arrest this blonde for stealing cufflinks... but she turned out to be really cute.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: The day I couldn't sleep I foolishly spent outside.
[ Chase ]: (Props, Dan, great build)
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: That had reprocussions.
[ DericStorm ]: tell me you at least got the digits, Danny
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I see.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Well then, I say you stay in.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I'd rather you stay healthy.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: I'll probably just take a short look around.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: I can't stay away from the garden too long.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: :)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Nah, she totally played me for a fool.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: This one botched job in Canada... oh man, did it go badly.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Does Kidman come across as too needy?
[ SwedishFish ]: I forgot my spikeshoes at Götagalan.
[ Ti-Jean ]: (ugh, Canada right now isn't pretty with the snow)
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Certainly not, who gave you that idea?
[ SwedishFish ]: ...Then Gudrun came with them.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I was going after some totem pole in Canada... the largest one or biggest around or something...
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: No one. Just remenants of OOC life, I suppose.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Just making sure.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Nothing about this crime went right. My henchmen were complete boobs, the pole was longer than I'd thought and wouldn't fit properly in the transport, I got this nasty splinter
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Both you and Kidman are doing rather well with the role.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: I got this rash that looked like leperosy
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: That's good to hear. I think she gets jealous of the others after a while.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Jealous in which way?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: It was not leperosy
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (lol Em.)
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I get arrested, thrown in a jail cell in Alert Bay British Columbia... one cell over from the lead singer of Radical Footage. Best. Arrest. EVER.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Kidman feels very frail and insufficent as a person, much how I used to. The others are full people in her mind.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: The jealous is healthy, of course, it's a drive to compete.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: the world works in myserious ways Sarah.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: I know, right?
[ SwedishFish ]: ...
[ Carmen ]: I like that story, Sarah.
[ SwedishFish ]: Boss? Miss Sandiego?
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: At the moment I think Kidman is trying to run a marathon on an empty stomach and inadequet clothing.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Thanks, though I don't remember if you liked it at the time...
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: In the rain.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: And it should please you to know no one is 'insufficient' and 'frail' here unless they mark themselves to be for story's sake.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: It WAS a pretty bad botch
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: then there was that time when I was little I got an electrical burn that turned into a huge water blister that looked like a giant wart. It creeped the girls at my school out. I spent all day chasing them. Much fun was had.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: though honestly I can't remember much of anything from that job so for all I know you were happy about it
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: For story's sake, she is. That could change.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: frail, anyway
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Not being picked by anyone stung.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: She just tries to absorb it.
[Neutral Grounds]: Sarah-Nade has left at 5:49 am
[Neutral Grounds]: Sarah-Nade has entered at 5:49 am
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Ah, dear, that was an odd question to begin with.
[ Chase ]: I uh... failed an exam so I had to re-train with rookie operatives for one segment of my tactical training. I met this new recruit that just moved from field to covert... it was good.
[ Carmen ]: Mm, vague.
[ SwedishFish ]: Sounds good, ja...
[ Ivy ]: vague indeed.
[ Ivy ]: (I need to head off guys! Thanks for the chat!)
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: It's meant to cause a rift.
[ SwedishFish ]: Vi ses, Miss Monaghan.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Later Ms. Monaghan.
[ Kidman ]: Bye Ivy!
[ Carmen ]: Be well, Ivy.
[ Chase ]: Take care.
[Neutral Grounds]: Ivy has left at 5:52 am
[ Chase ]: she didn't answer, did she?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: nope
[ SwedishFish ]: She did not answer the last two, jo.
[ Chase ]: It's okay, she's working on something (RP)
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: For her it translated out to 'not being useful in the field'.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: I mean.. of the people who are supposed to answer?
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I'll have to ask her kindly to ignore it.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Did everyone answer?
[ Carmen ]: I'll quickly answer.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: (dude, chat is messing with my posts!)
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Really I don't think much of this would bother her nearly as much if she didn't think VILE was about to fall apart.
[ Carmen ]: I was recently pursued by a black Mercedes in Tunisia, plenty of thoughts cycled in my head about who was behind the wheels; but we know how that ended.
[ SwedishFish ]: Heh.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: She feels pressured to do something, and not being able to ups any sense of weakness exponentially.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: VILE has been through worse.
[ SwedishFish ]: I am reminded... I must make a call to Stockholm.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: It has?
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: I'm sure she isn't the only one to feel the pressure.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Nice one Carmen.
[ Chase ]: Agreed
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Kidman feels she's the only one who sees it.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Everyone ekse is rather gung-ho about the tower being stolen.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: As they should, it keeps up spirits.
[ SwedishFish ]: I must be sure that Annelien has my forms ready.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Sometimes, all one has left is one's mind.
[ SwedishFish ]: (Great chat today, guys.)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Later Gunnar.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: It was super.
[ Carmen ]: (And with that, I need to head out, as well, thank you for your time.)
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: Yes, but if you are the only one...
[ Chase ]: Take care Gunnar, Carmen.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Bye Carmen! Thanks for the awesome Q & A.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: You get forced into that spot
[ SwedishFish ]: Vi ses, all.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: yes.
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Then all the more important.
[ DericStorm ]: bye
[Neutral Grounds]: SwedishFish has left at 5:59 am
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: bye boss lady.
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: A quick story?
[ Carmen->Kidman ]: Gmail then?
[ Kidman->Carmen ]: es plese
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Is it that time for people to start dropping like flies?
[Neutral Grounds]: Carmen has left at 6:00 am
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: *drops*
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: probably
[ Chase ]: Yeah, it's night for me... getting late.
[ Ti-Jean ]: Yes it is... sorry I've been quiet (phone rang)
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: But we had such a good run.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: true
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: that's reason I didn't get to ask a question last time
[Neutral Grounds]: Ti-Jean has left at 6:01 am
[ Sarah-Nade ]: quickly ask one now!
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: lol
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: I got nothing.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: ok, we tried
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: it happens when I'm put on the spot like that.
[ Chase ]: Heh
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: I know the feel.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Which Acme or Vile agent would you date if you could?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: ACME or VILE?
[ Sarah-Nade ]: All of the men!
[ Sarah-Nade ]: holds hand above head in 'Clean all the things' pose
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: I'd date Ivy. (Dan would date Pats, but never admit to it.)
[ DericStorm ]: If I wasn't dating Cali, I would say either Ivy or maybe Patty
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Sammy for Acme and Sarah for Vile
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Chase?
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Kidman?
[ Chase ]: Uh... this is mandatory?
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Kidman?
[ Sarah-Nade ]: yes.
[ DericStorm ]: just answer Carmen and move on El Jefe
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: I think we all know Chase's answer.
[ Chase ]: Don't know if I like saying names without the other party's consent.
[ Sarah-Nade ]: having an opinion doesn't require consent
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: yeah, it;s your own thoughts.
[ Chase ]: But sure, if she consented, it's her... the one you all have in your heads. And it probably won't be dating. I don't like dating.
[ Kidman ]: I'm here, hold on a sec...
[ DericStorm ]: purely physical... niiiiice
[ Kidman ]: Chase.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: I saif you could.
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Kidman and Chase... a match made in heaven.
[ DericStorm ]: or someplace a little warmer
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: But fine I'm nice so you don't have to answer Chase
[ Sarah-Nade ]: He did
[ DericStorm ]: boo
[ Sarah-Nade ]: Just not by name
[ Sarah-Nade ]: because we all know who you're thinking of.
[ Chase ]: That's right, I answered, an you all know it.
[ Chase ]: *and
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: what's EM's answer?
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Oh yeah I forgot to say Kidman
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: oh right, saw it
[ DetectiveAwesome ]: Kidman said Chase.
[ Kidman ]: What? I said Chase.
[ Chase ]: Makes sense.
[ Emmesey-Squire ]: Know I mean I'd also date Kidman
