Single Thread RP The Last ROLEPLAY Post Wins

[Fluxxation]

Dark looks up, readying...as Avari would see a cyan flame flare up for his right eye.


Dark has to bat away some stray coral with a tendril from his cloak as he portals back a bit too short (D20: 7), before catching a fair part of the other blast (D20: 20) in a portal, visibly wincing.

He then narrowly floats out of the way of the kick (D2O: 5), huffing again due to exertion...
...
Despite it though, Dark reaches into his bag and portals back, laying out a pair of turret cubes on panels, where they fold out.
<Time to see if Jack's printer does some good work...>
To stall though, Dark opens up a portal in front of Avari (D20: ...1-)...which kinda fizzles out immediately without doing anything.

The turrets seem to work as any of Dark’s others would, albeit a bit slow at first..

Avari would begin walking towards Dark upon recovering, she opens her palm, coral beginning to form an orb inside of it that is violently wobbling.

“I suppose I should remind you that this body is worth nothing to me. Go ahead.”

She would then extend her palm, firing a small pulse, like a laser, at Dark. (9)

Dark, still a bit slow on the uptake (D20: 4 (Wow.) + 4 = 8), ends up having to bat the laser to the side as he almost floats out of the way to dodge it.
"...Good to remember more clearly."

The gun turret folds out completely, opening fire on Avari (D20: 8).

 

[Crimtane Shovel... TWO!!!]

“{… you’re lucky that the coral flow didn’t kill you.. or else you’d be like me.}”

“{It’s not as cool as it sounds, being alive with no body.}”

(Valu: True!)

(0) Avari ignored the gunfire, it pinging and ripping through the machine’s torso.

“Get used to an opponent who will be able to shrug off your attacking like it is little more than an inconvenience.”

Avari would suddenly dash forwards, but then rapidly to the side, firing a rough volley of coral shots. (1, 19, 3, 3)

Dark blocks most of the shots with panels (10, 5, 2, 10), though a stray shot-
(Get that outta here.)
-Goes into a portal, Dark's right eye blinking red for a moment.

Dark's turret keeps firing on Avari (D20: 14), while a pair of portals open up behind Avari, firing out the coral shot Dark caught and the coral blast he failed to redirect earlier (D20: 5, 20)

(0,0) They rip a gaping hole through the middle of Avari’s torso.

Avari stumbles a bit.

“Mm..”

The hole begins to steam and bubble with coral before unleashing a large beam towards Dark, (14) Avari’s lights flickering as the machine rights itself once again, lunging forward, hand engulfed in a blade of coral, and swinging hard diagonally. (6)

Dark dodges that by flash stepping out of the way, huffing...(D20: 10)

Avari’s lights flickering as the machine rights itself once again, lunging forward, hand engulfed in a blade of coral, and swinging hard diagonally. (6)

Dark, however, is able to recover enough to block the blade strike (D20: 12 - 4 = 8), conjuring up a panel shuriken to swing at Avari's shoulder (D20: 20).

(0) And it cleaves deeply into the machine’s shoulder, cutting out a large gash which triggers a secondary coral explosion along the back of the machine, causing it to stumble forward, leaking much more coral. The machine’s lights flicker as it falls to its knees, lights dimming significantly now.

“We aren’t done yet though, this body isn’t broken.”

A massive surge of coral traces through the machine, flames sputtering up from the giant gash in its shoulder and beginning to tear along its back. The machine begins dripping coral much faster as it quickly stands up again, oculus cracking due to the pressure of the coral.

It looks at the stump of its other arm, reaching over and ripping some severed components out.

Moments later, a rough arm and hand shape made of coral emerges from stump, creating a spectral arm of sorts.

The machine now looks back towards Dark, oculus flaring a bright red.

It dashes forwards again, swinging with the blazing spectral arm made of coral. (13)

Dark raises a hand to block the arm with a panel (D20: 17), going for a thrust at Avari's abdomen with his shuriken (D20: 10).

Dark raises a hand to block the arm with a panel (D20: 17), going for a thrust at Avari's abdomen with his shuriken (D20: 10).

(0) It cuts through one side of the torso in roughly the same area as the already gaping hole, causing the torso to lean slightly to the side, not attached by much anymore.

“Don’t quit now, see it through to the end.”

Avari would attempt to boost backwards, but the thruster just plain throws her to the side, a small coral explosion happening too as it breaks.

She quickly recovers.

“Ready?”

She outstretches the coral arm, a decent amount of coral forming into.. the outline of the machine.

This spectral clone of sorts lunges at Dark, swinging a few times with its bare and blazing hands. (11, 5, 19)

While this is happening, Avari begins swirling coral around the machine’s regular hand…

Dark's turret opens fire again as Avari attacks and gathers up coral. (D20: 3)

<...ghost copy?>
<Interesting...>
Dark is able to dodge the majority of the clone's strikes, though one gets the better of him and-
-Bounces off some kind of panel barrier around him (D20: 19, 8, 15). Seems like it was made on kick reflex. But if he has to use that to defend himself, he must be faltering.
<Just..promise me you won't die here, Avari...unless you get me first.>

 

[Mecha_]

(oh no I missed a tangent again didn't I)

 

[Orchamut]

(Several days too late, but same)

 

[Fluxxation]

Dark's turret opens fire again as Avari attacks and gathers up coral. (D20: 3)

(0) Avari just begins walking at an odd angle from the turret, causing most of the shots to miss, but a few to ping across her armor.

“{Talking about death already? Come on Dark, I won’t kill you, I need you..}”

“{But that doesn’t mean it won’t feel like I will.}”

“{Come on now, there’s more in there. Let it out.}”

She clenches the first with the swirling Coral, the mass dispelling into several homing comet-like projectiles that rapidly home in on Dark. (10, 15, 7)

The coral projection lunges forward, throwing another punch before it becomes unstable and slowly fades into the air. (13)

(D20: 2, 17, 13)
One hits the barrier surrounding him. Seemed to have come closer to landing than the last…

That, however?
Lands.
<…I’ll be alright.>

His other eye flares on as his cloak is badly singed.
“…H-Here…”
Dark manifests a secondary panel shuriken, shaking a bit but righting himself quickly.
“…we…”
<…go.>

Dark flash steps in Avari’s face to perform a quick dual slash, one after the other. (D20: 15, 4)
Doesn’t look like he can keep going much longer though…

(0, 0) Both slashes connect, the first one making a pretty good gash along the machine’s oculus, but the second loosely scraping due to Avari recoiling.

Avari’s oculus shatters now, coral flowing out of the machine’s head.

Avari stumbles back, the coral arm vanishing. The machine grips its head with its one hand as the coral along the rest of its body dims a lot. A loud whirring begins to grow in pitched before Avari lets go of her head, a large beam of coral firing for a few seconds out of the machine’s ruptured oculus. (12)

After this, the machine stumbles backwards, coral very dim at this point.

Dark just about parries it just in time with his own panel (D20: 12).

After this, the machine stumbles backwards, coral very dim at this point.

Dark then huffs, catching his breath.
...
After a moment, he spins up one of his shurikens, sending it spinning it at Avari. (D20: 13. Just in case.)

(0) And that splits the damaged torso in half, the machine wobbling before it’s top half falls backward, and it’s bottom half collapses, coral leaking heavily from both ends.

“Dammit..”

“If I’d found a better body, I could’ve worked you harder without risking my own annihilation…”

The machine weakly raises its head, extending its working arm.

“Good job. I had honestly assumed you’d do worse.”

“Now.. can you get me out of this body?”

The lights continue to grow dimmer on the ruined machine’s body, the legs going out entirely, and the head very dim.

Dark nods, floating over to Avari to "reabsorb" her into him by touching his tendril to the broken down machine.
