Woohoo, go Emptyeye! It's good to see you're well.

As for me, I'm thankful that I haven't been committed yet, that I have a family of people I love, and that I haven't ruined anyone's life beyond repair.

Quorn Turkey tastes extremely accurate. But it still makes my mouth kinda dry.

OOC: Opportunity knocks....

At the entrance of the castle is a tall man in a brown detective coat. He looks at the group, flashes an odd looking watch, and grins.

Grey: "Hey, what kept ya?"

Amidst bewildered stares, Grey covers his watch with his sleeve.

"Teddylot's right, you know. It DOES pay to talk to random NPCs."

Janus: "You sure you want to do that? I mean, it's a pretty big responsibility. According to this thingy, there's assassins and human farmers and---"

Janus takes another look at the small, round device he's holding, his eyes stop glowing blue, and suddenly, he throws it at the ground, dashing it to bits.

"Ah, hell, this thing takes all the fun out of adventures. Who'm I kidding? Let's let the girl have fun!"

But sandy works twice as fast as claude does... Wouldn't that mean the ratio is 2:1 instead of 3:1?

After 1 hour, sandy is 1/3 of the way done and claude is 1/6 of the way done. Gauging it to claude, that's 3/6 of the way done, or half done. In another hour, they're both done painting the fence. So it'd be two hours...

But then, it doesn't really restrict jobs to painting fences. Though two hours is my answer, it seems a bit suspicious. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses, sandy could just be really good at fence painting.

Ah, who the hell am I kidding.... Two hours. If I'm wrong, may Ninja Pirates come and make me walk the pagoda plank.

Grey: "Or maybe it's just an off-day.... month.... century..."

Grey inspects the icky, mossy, slippery pathway to the castle gates.

"So, what're we doing now?

Janus: "Bah, been there, done that. Let's go."

Janus turns, walks back to the teleporter, stops and looks back at Kirbynite, Haruko, and pretty much whoever else was there at the time.

"Oh, and if we're gonna head eastSOUTH, we might wanna pick up some wet towels along the way. Never know when we might get sunstroke in a desert like that."

Grey: "Hey hey, man. Relax. I know when I'm not wanted. I'm just popping in to make sure you guys aren't in TOO much trouble. Us randomly appearing characters have to throw some purpose into our lives. You don't want me to hang around, I won't."

Grey walks further into the castle, totally ignoring the koopas.

"But you know, you just might need me if you're in a tight spot. Think it over."

He hits one of the brick blocks with a baseball bat produced from within his coat, and a quarter pops out of it.

"Ah, that's pretty nice. Wonder what the other ones do..."

OOC: Crap, I'm thinking of what happens later, aren't I?

Janus: "Did I say east?" He looks at what he's got written down, erases it, and scrawls on the word "south" before anyone lynches him

"No, no, south. But hey, the wet towels still apply. Lots of wet towels. I burn very easily."

Grey: "Oh, nothing. I'll be off now. But you might want to take that as an example. This IS a mossy, decrepit castle, you never know what treasures may lie inside it!"

With that piece of cryptically obvious and totally random advice, Grey presses a button on his watch and disappears in a puff of smoke.

.....Or he would have, if he wasn't still there when the smoke cleared.

OOC: Dude, you need to play Earthbound...

Janus: "You know, I like your thinking! Everyone's got some good in them, after all."

Strolling merrily along with the group, Janus suddenly becomes the victim of what is known as a "delayed reaction."

"Oh, wait....."

Grey: "Yeah, they're really hard to get rid of, since you can't exactly kill them..."

He takes a look at the bony turtle skeleton and taps it on the...... Skull, I guess.

The taller man could have carried the shorter man on his back, then the issue of the overlapping footprints would be solved...

Problem with that answer is you said they didn't walk back through their own footprints. But since the taller man would have larger feet (height and shoe size are biologically related for the most part), he could go through his strides and not worry about the shorter man's steps, since the unsynchronized steps wouldn't be an issue (the shorter man wouldn't be walking!).

Posted on 11-27-04 03:30 AM, in Schwa vs. Janus and the Floes of Time Link
OOC: And pride becomes prejudice.... Keep in mind, by the way, that in this particular battle, Janus engaged Schwa almost immediately after battling Star....

Janus: "Well, I knew this would come in handy...."

As the dark clouds swirl and Schwa realizes what he did, Janus engages the fifth, and now sixth, elements! He drives his hammer head deep into the ground, as a swirl of cream-colored light engulfs it!

"Alright, secondary test...... White!!!!!"

White! The technique he learned not an hour ago suddenly resurfaces itself, but now it's charged with holy element energy as well as the other five parts... A pure light engulfs Janus as well, and covers him just as the grey beam tries to blow him away! The lights clash with each other, and eventually the grey light angles itself around Janus' aura...

"This, Schwa, is what I've learned to do.... Not because I've killed demons, not because I've gained experience, but because I remember days that have long passed, and because I want to make bad things that have happened never happen, and good things that will happen come to perfection. Mercy is not a weakness. I've learned that, as well..."

When the light fades, regardless of what has happened to Schwa, Janus has changed. He now wears a black pinstriped suit, black italian shoes, and black sunglasses. His hauberk covers the outside suit jacket. His hair is no longer grey, but white...

"Schwa, I'm not just Janus anymore. I've become a peacekeeper. Allow me to reintroduce myself to you as, well...."

500000 years. As each agent died, Janus kept their specialties alive with constant rememberance. For so long, he did their work for them, letting the world believe that the oldest heroes they had were still alive and well. When Red died, Janus kept his suit. When Blue died, Janus took his glasses. When Green died, Janus took his shoes. As the three agents protected the world, so did Janus, remembering those who were once his greatest rivals, and then his closest friends. They each died for him. He vowed to correct this, and return their posessions to them someday. Until then, he let them help him from beyond the grave...

".....Agent White."

Janus: "Reydam.... It's good to see you again. We never DID finish our fight, did we? Ah, well, I suppose it was for the best. If we had, I might not have been able to help you today!"

Reydam's jump was interrupted by a young man grabbing his collar and gripping it hard. If he turned around, Reydam would see standing before him that same young man he had fought a long time ago, but never actually defeated or had been defeated by. Except, this time he was different. His hair was white, he was adorned in a metal hauberk and a black pinstriped suit, and accessorized himself neatly, with italian shoes and black sunglasses.

"Now then, I'm not here to fight you, I'm here to help you, and hopefully, you can help me, too."

He then eyes Hector.

"You're Hector, right? You know Star. Has Star spoken to you, lately?"

Shifting his glance to Jarukoth, Janus grins.

"And you're Jarukoth, the Cyberninja. Red told me about you...

Good, you're all strong, healthy people. I'd like to join in this fight, if you don't mind...."

Janus: "Sorry, you've got the wrong guy. The detective isn't here."

Stepping to the side, Janus grabs the hybrid dragon by the tail and showcases the power of Red's suit by slamming Hector into the ground with an iron grip around his posterior end. Red's suit, in keeping with its former user, is of course fireproof.

"My name's Agent White. But you can call me Janus."

Mysteriously stepping out from underneath a pile of bones, Grey emerges, having disappeared suddenly while everyone else had fought the horde HE managed to get summoned.

Grey: "I do believe so. Good job, Melvin! I could've done it myself, but my.... um.... My ankle... Ah, hell, I'm a coward."
