Planetarion Forums - The Return of the Food Joint

Gryffin · 25 Jul 2003, 18:53

*Due to his generosity, Gryffin gives David a free burger. With chips. And a large drink. Of his choice. Gryffin wonders if the fat extracts are going to his head and messing it up.*

David91 · 26 Jul 2003, 16:40

*David asks if Jingú Spike Sensations are available as drinks. If not, he'll have a Diet Coke.*

Gir · 26 Jul 2003, 17:25

*Gir decends deeper into the basement, and realises its gettin darker and darker. He turns up the power of his flashlight, and a then he hears a loud thud, as if something had been startled by the sudden light and bumped into something. He draws his photon pistol, Varista, and edges forward.*

Who's there??

David91 · 26 Jul 2003, 17:43

"Are there any tribbles under here? They tend to like a place like this when it is abandoned, and also when is isn't."

*David pulls out a Jugaei II pistol [with scope, light, laser pointer and very powerful ammunition] and loads it.*

"Need any help down there, Gir?" he calls.

Gir · 26 Jul 2003, 18:15

Yeah sure David, come on down. I think I saw something in that corner over there.

*Gir walks over to the corner of the room. He crouches down and sees a small green puddle. He dips his hand into the puddle. It has a sticky feel, like drool. Gir's blood runs cold as he remembers what type of creature he knows that has green drool. Grass Assassins! (heres a picture of one, they are taller than men!

http://pscave.com/pso/images/grass-assassin.gif

Gir turns to see one right behind David, its right scythe raised high above its head. Gir almost instantly raises his Varista and fires a shot at the Assassins scythe, knocking its arm off balance, giving David enough time to get out of its reach.*

Careful, these creatures can spit a substance from their mouth to stick you to the floor!

David91 · 26 Jul 2003, 18:37

ooc: Wasn't there a creature like this on Star Wars: Attack of the Clones?
ic:

*David leaps out of the way, takes his pistol in both hands and fires a shot right between the eyes of the Grass Assassin. It shakes its head about violently and bolts around the basement dangerously, knocking over some crates of Secret Sauce which had fermented solid over the years.*

Gir · 30 Jul 2003, 18:20

ooc: I dunno, but they in Phantasy Star Online

ooc

*Gir continues to fire at the Assassin, until it collapses onto the floor. Almost instantley, the Assassin's tail end ruptures, and countless baby Assassin's run screaming out of the base ment.*

Erm... thats not good!

AcidK · 30 Jul 2003, 18:44

*AcidK walks into Dave's Fast F

d Joint, his stomach has been empty for some time now.*

Your resident 'eat as much as you can without filling up or gaining weight' guy has arrived. I'll has twenty of your largest meals, with whatever drinks you can offer.

Gryffin · 31 Jul 2003, 21:24

*Gryffin whips off the meals for Acidk, and sets David's meal down at where he had been sitting, but he appeared to have left to attack things. Gryffin then heads back into the kitchen, ignoring the blasts echoing around him, to see if the special Acidk Conveyor was still working.*

AcidK · 31 Jul 2003, 21:47

*AcidK, as he has done many times before, opens his mouth wide enough to cover the conveyer, although it had became rusty over the time of it's misuse. AcidK watched as the food came down the conveyor and plumetting into his mouth.*

Gir · 2 Aug 2003, 11:55

*Gir runs up the stairs and chases teh baby Assassins. They all run into the air vent system.*

Damn! This aint good! The health inspectors will be here soon!

*Pulls a photo off the wall, and a hidden door appears. Gir walks in to his secret weapon stash. He grabs his Spread Needle shotgun, his Guld Milla mechguns (like uzis) and his Stag Cutlery (like Darth Maul's double sabre)*

Anyone else need any weapons, go in there and help yourself. We got some bugs to kill!

AcidK · 2 Aug 2003, 13:06

*AcidK pulls out his K5 Katana from a hidden sheathe.*

Well, I'm ready...

Gir · 2 Aug 2003, 15:35

Hey Acid... do me a favor and climb into the vent system...

Hewitt · 2 Aug 2003, 17:42

*In the midst of the chaos that is the good ol' fast f

d joint waltzes in a 7ft tall humaniod red dragon... wearing a set of matrix-style sunglasses.*

*Looks around* Hmm... going for the 'rustic' look I see.

*Hewitt spots a man close by frantically giving out random weapons and orders. Hewitt identifies this kind of behaviour matching that of one who runs things around here and suddenly remembering some piece of important information Hewitt wanders over to the man (Gir).*

You might want to know but I spotted a government vehicle full of guys in white coats on my way here. Do you know what that's about?

*Hewitt frowns as a series of violent impacts sound from the nearby airduct.*

Er... you might want to fix that...

Gir · 2 Aug 2003, 19:43

*Gir looks at the dragon for a minute, before realising that is talking to him.*

Sorry mate, no idea what those white coat guys are about. Maybe you do?

Gryffin · 2 Aug 2003, 20:19

*Gryffin wanders past holding a plasma rifle, and laughs at Gir.*

"They are probably the health inspectors. I am off to guard my kitchen..."

*Gryffin dissappears back into the kitchen, where soon the sounds of his gun going off are heard, and a cooks knife plunges halfway through the door with a crunch.*

Drake42 · 3 Aug 2003, 04:12

A tall dark man steps into the fast food joint. He scans the joint slowly from side to side through half sphere reflective glasses. His face is hidden in a large and seasonally inappriopate scarf. He glides as much as walks over to the counter.
"err... hi-lo. I vould like one burger, pla-lease." he says in a thick accent, apparently oblivious of the grass assasins and the health inspection officials, who are decending on the joint in a manner not unlike ninjas.

Drake look frantically through the joint, hoping that KoL wouldn't figure out it was him. He somehow doubted that growing five extra inchs in height and hiding all his facial features would help.

Killer-of-Lawye · 3 Aug 2003, 06:29

KoL remains blissfully oblivious to drake, giving him only a slight nod as he enters.

Naturaly, as soon as drake relaxes, another giant hand drags him into the kitchen and sets him looking deep into C'Sandras angry eyes.

"What? You going to make me agiant, make us all animals, then LEAVE! Just leave us like that.. poof, drakes gone, and so's any hope of a cure or having anyone intelligent to talk too for months! Your not leaving this time! No sir!"

C'Sandra produces a approprietly sized set of handcuffs, and cuffs her arm, and then swings the other end at drake. Comparting the size difference, she merly sighs and looks dejectedly at Drake.

"I don't suppose you'll promise not to dissapear again if I ask you really nicely?"

Gir · 3 Aug 2003, 16:57

AcidK: No man! Im not going into those vents... they haven tbeen cleaned in years!!!

Fine fine dont worry!

*Gir clambers into the vents, only his Varista equipped*

Gryffin · 3 Aug 2003, 20:29

*Gryffin nods to Drake from the kitchen, and hands him a burger. He then grins at C'sandra.*

"Want a burger C'sandra? With sauce?"

Drake42 · 4 Aug 2003, 03:03

Drake looks up at C'Sandra, his vision filling with warnings from various internal machinery that this was a bad thing.
"To be perfectly honest, no. Not a chance."
Drake accepts the burger and, sighing heavily, adjusts the scarf and bites into the burger.
"I never shoulda come back" he mumbles to himself "but no, I thought, 'I'm the universe so I'll go and get a burger. they'll never notice me.' stupid stupid stupid..."
Drake idly checks the burger for quality and then continues to eat it.
"How have things been?"

AcidK · 4 Aug 2003, 16:42

*AcidK changes size and outlook, thinning out somewhat so his hulking size could fit in the vents. He then dives into the vents in a different location to Gir, all that could be heard were loud bangs, squelling noises and sudden shakes of rock. AcidK pops out of the vents, changing to normal quickly.*

Got any barbeque sauce?

Gir · 4 Aug 2003, 18:15

o.O

BBQ sauce? Why?

*Calls Gir from the vent above*

ooc: Dreamcast.

*David returns to his meal, which has by now got cold(er). He eats it anyway.*

Germaniå · 4 Aug 2003, 22:56

*Germania wanders into Dave's Fast F

d Joint and takes a seat at a dusty booth near the corner. From this vantage point, he can observe everyone at ground level, and he begins thumbing through a menu, but only half-heartedly.*

"Hmmm...," Germania thinks to himself, "Looks like The Diablo Bergur is misspelled."

*Signals Dave with a flick of his hand, as his eyes gaze curiously at the other patrons.*

AcidK · 5 Aug 2003, 01:39

Well, food tastes better with BBQ sauce!

*AcidK pats his stomach a little.*

Gir · 5 Aug 2003, 19:54

*Gir falls from the vent from above Germania, followed by a Grass Assassin. Gir stabs the Assassin in the stomach, gutting it, and it screams as it dies... Gir is completely untouched by the bug juice. He wipes off the blob of bug blood from Germania's shoulder.*

Hello Sir how may I help?

Gryffin · 5 Aug 2003, 22:29

*Gryffin shruggs.*

"I am sure I can rustle up some BBQ sauce if you want."

*Gryffin then turns to Drake, and leans on the counter before he speaks.*

"Things are okay, I guess. We went on for a while under Gal, but then we were forced to close after turning into animals, but then just recently Dave turned up out of no-where, and re-opened the Joint. And then strange things have happened, but no stranger than normal, including your return. Care to say for how long?"

[ooc] Welcome back Drake

[ooc]

Drake42 · 6 Aug 2003, 01:27

"Well, I wasn't planning on stay for very long at all, but it seems that I'm being forced to extend my visit due to..." he guestures at C'sandra and then takes the last bite of his burger.
"Quite good. You do a good job gryffin. Now if you'll excuse me I've got to run away as fast as I possibly can."
Drake runs across the room, jumps onto the stove and then refrigerator and struggles into the air ducts, where he begins to pull himself away as fast as possible.

Killer-of-Lawye · 6 Aug 2003, 01:47

(Your not handcuffed. C'sandra made the mistake of getting the cuffs made to her size, not yours.

AcidK · 6 Aug 2003, 02:20

*AcidK takes the BBQ sauce and dives back into the air vents, squeals and shreiks of grass assassins could be heard, but over their cries the sound of joyful munching was heard. After a while some gold Shraan Credits dropped on the counter, this Fast F

d was the type he like (ie, the ones that try to run away).*

Germaniå · 6 Aug 2003, 08:39

*Germania's body stiffens as his hand dashes to his right hip out of reflex... and pauses as he realizes there's no hostile intention from Gir*

Pardon my abruptness of movement, I mean you no hostility.

"I'm just unsure of my whereabouts and having difficulty remaining passive, especially with strangers touching me." Germania thinks to himself.

If you don't mind, I am seeking an individual who might have skills in handcrafting something for me. I know this establishment isn't the most ideal of places, but I'm in a pinch.

AcidK · 6 Aug 2003, 16:23

*AcidK suddenly bursts out the bottom of a ceiling vent, a large bug like figure following him. He moved with careful precision, two knives now in his hands, stabbing the sides of the bug, flipping around so the bug was underneath him and landing, one knife now stabbed into the bug, and creating a large thud on the ground. AcidK stood up and flicked some bug remains from his shoulder.*

Verric · 7 Aug 2003, 04:19

Verric hums loudly to himself, planting cacti wherever he feels suitable, scattering rich dark potting mixture over the floor.

Gir · 7 Aug 2003, 22:10

Verric what are you doing! *screams Gir at the cacti obsessed man*

*Turns to Germania*

What are you lookin for to be hand crafted sir?

AcidK · 8 Aug 2003, 01:59

*AcidK picks up the corpse with one hand, his tails poping out with mean-looking tools, one happening to be a Kylithium chisel used to craft adamantium weapons. Then his tails moved like snakes, each darting in and out of the fray that became of the corpse, the movement speed itself was blinding enough to make humans go nuacious. Bug parts and bugblood sprayed out from where he stood and, finally, a fist-blade was produced, made by the exoskeleton of the rather large bug.*

Erm, Dark Da... I mean Gir... you really should be looking out for the size of these things, they seem to be growing inside the vents to almost 4', this one being the largest I've found... or had found... or was the largest at any rate.

*AcidK looks down at what remained of the bug around him, the area around him and some of the customers around him.*

Verric · 8 Aug 2003, 04:03

"I is doing gardening," says Verric in response to Gir's scream. "Gardening is a civilised sport. better than peasant hunting, it is."

AcidK · 8 Aug 2003, 16:34

Thier is a time and place, Verric...

*AcidK picks up some cacti and shoves it down his throat, uncaring for pain or even what Verric may say to it.*

And these cacti are too... tame, it ruins the taste.

Gryffin · 8 Aug 2003, 19:50

*Gryffin watches Acidk silently, and then hands him a burger. He then turns to Verric, and smiles.*

"Perhaps the caccti would prefer to be outside, rather than spread over the floor. People will stand on them as they are, because they never look where they are putting their feet."

AcidK · 8 Aug 2003, 23:26

That at least is true...

*AcidK walks with the burger in his hands, heading towards his table, crushing some cacti on his way.*

(oops. Thats what I get for sloppy reading. Post edited to make sense given that.)

Drake pulls his way through the ventilation tunnels and finds an unusual amount of large nasty looking insects, all of whom are very very dead. Taking a knife from his cloak, Drake cuts one of the assasins blade from its dead arm and drags it along with him as he takes the ventilation tunnels down to the basement.

Funny you say that, In the game PSO you can turn their arms into a pair of sabres

Killer-of-Lawye · 9 Aug 2003, 07:06

KoL looked at Acidk flatly.
"Eat the stores stocks, be your generaly arrogent self and buy up everything, bon't don't mess with the friend of my wifes pet cacti!"

KoL Growls, sweaps the bottom part of the celing away to give himself more room, (And incidently tossing drake, vent and all across the dinning area), and grabs Acidk and procedes to shake verrics cactus back out of him.

AcidK · 9 Aug 2003, 10:43

*AcidK smiles, the shaking not really bothering him.*

Too late, the cacti is gone. And beleive me, it is not arrogance... learn to use a language before you speak it, dear boy.

*AcidK phases through KoL's hands and lands carefully back onto the floor, picking up a small chip and eating it.*

And for your information, it is called greed. I have a very strange digestive system that NEEDS a lot of food.

Gir · 9 Aug 2003, 15:04

ooc/ sorry I havent been posting with my usual wackyness, my cat is currently at the vets after being hit by a car, the cat i got when I was 5 so sorry all if i seem down and unable to post properly /ooc

/ooc update My cat died this afternoon at 5.16pm. Sorry if dont post here for a couple of days /ooc

Gryffin · 10 Aug 2003, 20:04

[ooc] I'm sorry for you, even if it sounds a bit trite coming from someone you only know across the internet. I know how hard I'd be hit if my cat got killed like that

[ooc]

AcidK · 11 Aug 2003, 00:43

[ooc]
I give my condolencies rom the cat. I know it is hard when a cat has died, I have been through it myself (and it was a cat I knew since I was born, and died when I was fifteen. The next cat, aged 3, died a few months ago). If there is anything we can do to help you, then all you need do is ask.

And yes, it does sound trite when it comes from someone you only know over the net

[/ooc]
