Ambrose does a whole lot of fuck-all upon extraction, offering a small nod to Navessa. The lone soldier doesn’t get his attention, and instead he rifles through his things.
Lykaia says “Was about to.“
Tamar eyes Kaelyn(wolf) when she comes padding past and then she boots it back towards the side of the field. When she spots the lone soldier, the angelborn gives a little smirk and heads right for him.
“Oooh, yes. How much do I owe you again?” Navessa tucks the jar into her bag. It’s one soldier, there’s plenty of people about to handle it.
Arachne skims over the chaotic battlefield briefly. “Did I not just see T–” A tentative pause, then her gaze catches on Tamar at long last. “Tamar! How do you feel about missing the long-awaited rapture that happened on October the 7th?” she suddenly calls.

“I suppose that’s an insensitive question to any Christian who believed that the rapture was coming then,” Arachne realizes in idle retrospect, only to fall silent when Tamar answers back in confusion. She just turns a wide-eyed, disbelieving look at Malin.

Seems par the course!”

Nemi takes one from the bag, placing it in her mouth gently to savor the flavor as she smiles softly while just sitting there.
“Which part of it?” Navessa asks, glancing to Ambrose. “I got distracted debating how to convince Obie that one chip will make him fat.”
Malin snickers helplessly over what Amber is claiming.
“One chip,” Ambrose responds to Navessa, tap-tapping his temple.
Lykaia says “Alright, everyone with me here, back to the tombstone.“
Matthew flashes Malin a grin, “Doraidos, enjoy. I’ve never lost a raid when I ate doraidos.” He takes another chip, looking about for any other takers.
Avalon says “Alright, now everyone back to either the tombstone or the tree“

“Perhaps I’ve gone too far,” Arachne muses, turning her gaze toward Matthew for a moment of searching for her non-existent morality. “What do you think? That seems to have gotten the reaction.”
Obadiah eats a chip and hands the bag to Nemi before the bag gets passed around. “The friends that eat Doritos in a graveyard while the legions of Hell rain down terror around together, stay together.”
Amber says “They have, in fact. Beyond the fact that you’re all walking bioweapons.“
Celestine charges toward tombstone.
Navessa says “Obie, you’d better have just a single bite of a single chip. Else you might not fit your costume. “
Nemi says “Well I’m lucky my costumes pretty loose.“
Arachne says “Obadiah maintains his figure with rigorous use of Ozempic and cocaine like all his fine peers.“
“Wait, Obie, are you cutting for the fit?” Matthew asks, he’s clearly not, and takes another crunching bite. “Who all is getting dressed for the show tonight?”
Nemi says “Oh right the halloween party is tonight…“
“Hey listen!” Obadiah exclaims to someone. “It’s Navi!”
Mercy barks out an overtly fake laugh. “An’ what the fuck are you then? Literal god damn corpse who’s gotta suck blood outta people to live. But sure, the wolves who get a little spicy once a month’re the real biohazards.”
“Hey listen!” Obadiah exclaims to Navessa. “It’s Navi!”
Nemi says “I never got around to getting a tailor to look over my costume.“
Malin asks Matthew, “If they aren’t getting dressed does that mean they are in their jammies or are nekkid?”
Celestine wards tombstone.
When Lykaia says something Tamar can take as an order she does just that, turning from the others teasing her and racing after the Templar.
“You didn’t think to call the Glitterati?” Arachne feigns hurt at Nemi’s words, her fleeting pang of guilt at Tamar’s response long forgotten in the cross-talk.
Matthew shrugs his shoulders at Malin, “I dunno, but I got distracted and still haven’t done anything for our custome. DOn’t worry. I’m gonna like… get some helmets and spray paint them silver and then like…” he waves a hand, “you know, bling it up.”
Ambrose does not pipe up in any of the conversations going on, falling silent for the time, despite whatever dog he may or may not have in any of them.
Obadiah says “I am not fat! The speed helps with that.“
Malin squints some at Matthew, but she’s nodding her head a bit. “Okay.”
Amber gives a faint shrug, “We don’t turn people on accident. We aren’t magically driven to insanity that forces us to multiply on the regular. We aren’t magically driven to insanity that makes us maim and kill either. If every vampire chose not to spread the condition, it’d go extinct. If every werewolf made the same choice, it’d spread at about the same rate.”

Lykaia says “Welcome… this was the strangest legion raid in a few months for me.“
Lillian charges toward tombstone.
Eric says “welcome friends“
Mercy shrugs right back at Amber. “Right cause never in history has a vamp gone a little too far an’ sucked someone till they were a human raisin. An’ I got a real hard time understandin’ yer point against ‘magically driven insanity’ when you consciously, deliberately, put that insanity on a wolf fer shits an’ giggles.”
Kaelyn charges toward Eric.

Lykaia says “Anyone ever wondered how a dozen people fit behind a single Tombstone?“
“Can we just get Jakem to setup some grudge matches to sort this out so we do not have to listen to it while waiting on Hell’s next wave of muppets?” Matias asks from behind a tombstone with a small group.
Ambrose tilts his head marginally to listen to Navessa, then nods it mildly in return to what she says. “Likewise. Weekend may be better.”
Amber gives A creepy d31oll w67ith a67 ruin67ed ey67e tha31t’s always open a little pat, “Unwillingly? Correct. It’s always a choice. Unlike you disease-spreaders. Sometimes people need reminder that rabid animals are rabid animals and not a cute joke.”
“No, no. It’s too late. You were supposed to be Glitterati forever, and you’ve broken the cardinal rule,” Arachne tuts at Nemi, a passing glance ticked between Mercy and Amber as their conversation unfurls. “What passion they have,” she murmurs.
Preston charges toward a soldier of the 63rd.
Preston shoulders his rifle and unloads a focused burst at a soldier of the 63rd that sparks off the ground near his feet.
Obadiah brushes some Dorito dust off of his hands on his coat front.
Nemi gasps. “Wait did we actually ever discuss any rules?”
A soldier of the 63rd starts to move a bit slower.
Tamar makes a supernatural leap to a soldier of the 63rd.
Malin simply glances back and forth, listening to everyone in turn.
“Yes. You never dare seek fashion advice from anyone outside of the Glitterati,” Arachne posits over toward Nemi gravely.
Nemi says “Well I haven’t…. Even attempted?“
Nemi states with a soft shrug.
Tamar moves up alongside Lykaia, spotting Celestine and giving her a small dip of her head in greeting. Then she spots something else and is after the Legion like a shot. Maybe just an excuse to escape from the others. Maybe to have a chance to work out her frustrations.
Nemi says “I just never got around to it at all“
Matias charges toward a soldier of the 63rd.
Matias fires off a shot at a soldier of the 63rd which sparks off the ground near his feet.
“Neither of them are wrong. And even my ‘favorite‘ werewolves I’ve known have made my teeth itch. So it goes.” Ambrose openly and placidly chatters back toward Navessa, letting his attention wander back westward beyond to the extraction the rare reinforcement comes from.
Tamar draws and quickly fires an arrow at a soldier of the 63rd, it misses him.
Nemi looks over the cover at the lone soldier. “Well I think they’ve mostly given up for now…”
Matthew squints into the distance watching the slow approach of a lone soldier. He doesn’t rush to leave his cover however, staying back, likely waiting to see how many are following from behind.
A soldier of the 63rd is pulled towards Eric by an invisible force.
Eric fires off a shot at a soldier of the 63rd which sparks off the ground near his feet.
Mercy rolls her eyes again. “Rules for thee shit. Werewolf gone mad on a full moon is a criminal if they hurt someone but a hungry vamp takin’ it too far ain’.”
Mercy throws a small knife end over end at a soldier of the 63rd, it misses him.
Obadiah says “Wait. Am I part of the glitterati? I feel like you are implying I am, when actually I am just good at choosing suits that fit my shape“
Lykaia says “Will designate the guy with a laster when in range, Tamar.“
Kaelyn(wolf) flicks an ear at something.
Lykaia says “Laser. “
Tamar says “Understood. “
Celestine slides a devastating round into the chamber of her 19r01if01le, aligning the c24r60o96s96s96h96a60i24rs with a soldier of the 63rd. The trigger breaks with a clean 96′96C02R08A14C20K21!’ – which misses him.
Kai charges toward Kaelyn.
Kai(Corvus corax) gets into cover behind the tombstone.
There is a brief squeeze for Ambrose’s shoulder. “Well, provided I don’t end up on a pointless rescue mission again, my weekend is fairly open.” Navessa does glance over towards those bickering, giving a shrug. “Don’t know many werewolves myself, so I guess I’d have to say I’m more on the vampire side for now.” Smirk.
“Murder is murder,” Ambrose corrects Mercy. “Order treats them as such regardless.”

Amber charges Amber with magic.
Mercy addresses someone next, tone blunt, “More tellin’ Amber she’s an idiot an’ a hypocrite.”
Mercy addresses Ambrose next, tone blunt, “More tellin’ Amber she’s an idiot an’ a hypocrite.”
Lykaia says “I’m tempted to fucking around and risking finding out.“
Matthew upnods someone, “What’s up man. GOod to see you, better late than never!”
Matthew upnods Kai, “What’s up man. GOod to see you, better late than never!”
The soldier drops before Tamar can get to him and the girl lowers her blade, pouting as she searches for more of the Legion.
Lykaia says “Fuck it.“
Avalon tilts his head towards the west to spot another soldier, commenting a little “Well, there goes a lone one…” Taking a moment to look between Mercy and Amber and shrugging “I don’t know, they both kill fine, they do their jobs right…” Musing to himself as he watches the westward shooting “It’s no point trying to discuss it, they’ll just hate each other instinctually”
Tamar charges toward Lykaia.
Celestine wards a wraithlike Barn Owl with ragged feathers.
Ambrose gives a gentle, two-fingered salute to Mercy in turn to that, attention returning to the distant extraction. “Just saying. Some take great strides to prevent. Blanket statements and all.”
Amber gives a brief roll of her eyes, “Someone dying accidentally due to unknown health issues is nowhere near the same as a magical insanity that forces you to spread your disease or kill all you encounter. A vampire can choose not to cause harm. A werewolf always will. No matter what. No matter how many chains or drugs you use. Eventually, you will, without logic or reason or sanity behind it. Vampires not so.”
Ambrose looks to someone as he lands alongside himself and Navessa. A placid blink and a nod. “Mister Ashford.”
Kai charges toward Kaelyn.
Kai(Corvus corax) gets into cover behind the tombstone.
Navessa yawns, leaning on the statu- er, Ambrose as they await extraction with the briefcase.
Eric says “y’all folks argue a lot“
Obadiah raises his voice over the fray, “The Fae would like a word Ms. Steele.”
Ambrose looks to Kai as he lands alongside himself and Navessa. A placid blink and a nod. “Mister Ashf–” And off the bird flies.
Mercy snaps a quick nod to Ambrose while his attention was her way. “Gotcha, s’fine by me.”
Amber looks over to Eric, “It’s what happens when there aren’t enough Legion to fight.”
Navessa opens an eye that she just closed because why not and looks off in the direction of Obadiah. “Yes, Big Inker?”
“What are you thinking?” Tamar asks Lykaia, coming up alongside her in a guard position while she packs up the bipod.
Nemi turns to Arachne after peaking once more.
Eric says “I have rarely hated a nickname so much as I hate Big Inker. It’s honestly worse than golden retriever“
Ambrose slips his phone out of his suit jacket, checks it, and stows it in favor of his pistol. “About ten minutes,” placidly announced to no one in particular.
Lykaia keeps up far ahead from everyone else, together with Tamar. She placed down her rifle with a bipod for a moment, then decides to pick it up again, sling the rifle and hold her extendable baton in one hand, it’s other hand laying over the palm of her other hand. “If it’s going like usual, we’re about to get swarmed.”
Arachne presses her hands to the top of the tombstone, hunkering down to launch herself forward. Though, she pauses long enough to glance aside at Nemi and catch her look. “Yes?”
Mercy kicks over a corpse, holding it with a heel while it’s inspected and calling out to Amber over a shoulder. “Talkin’ ’bout vamps who get a little too greedy an’ don’t stop before it’s too late, but what ever. Yer still the dumbass who thought inflictin’ lunacy on a wolf while not knowin’ how many innocents were around them was a good idea so in that instance, yer the one who woulda had their blood on yer hands.”
“I am hurt, appalled even, you would chose team vampire without considering the many harrowing experiences that await you on team fairy,” Obadiah says with a batting of his eyelashes.
Nemi coughs softly. “Well I never attempted to get advice from anyone…. is the opportunity still there? Also any idea when the next planned outing might be?” She asks before stopping, and peaking over to check on the status of the enemies.
“Who’s Big Inker?” Kai asks and reaches out to scratch behind Kaelyn(wolf)’s ears.
Nemi says “Also They really do not want to attempt this anymore do they…“
“Well, that will be fun at least,” Tamar tells Lykaia, keeping half an eye towards the west while still trying to half follow conversations drifting across the field.
Kaelyn(wolf) bumps her head up into the hand before remembering the amount of people around. Her head drops in defiance and she takes a few tapping prances away.
“Well, the discussion was between vampires and werewolves,” Navessa calls out to Obadiah. “That’s like asking someone if they prefer hotdogs or hamburgers and being upset they didn’t say pizza. Pizza always wins, but you have to have a second place, right?” And to Kai, she gestures towards the fae in question: “Obie is Big Inker, obviously.”
“Yeah, and that’s a choice. Not uncontrollable magical instinct. Never exsanguinated anyone on accident,” Amber answers with a bit of edge to Mercy, “Have done it on purpose. When someone deserved it. But I can make that choice because I’m not moon-crazy. And the risk to innocents was the whole point. Since you kept joking about attacking people on the moon.”
Arachne points Nemi’s attention over toward Malin. “Do you see Malin? She is part of the Glitterati and her fashion sense is truly impeccable. Consult her,” she encourages, before slipping through the crowd of hunkered down bodies.
“Yeah, no, we faeborn are better” Avalon says in agreement with Obadiah “Proper shapeshifting, without insanity, unlike wolves… And I hear we are better at hiding than the vampires…”
Blinking away the haze of IRL obligation, Celestine barks a command towards a wraithlike B04ar05n11 Owl w05it04h ragged feathers in a language foreign to the tongues of most, her hand reaching out to make an unusual gesture with her fingers. She curls them inwards, then lays her rifle out upon its bipod… laying herself out behind the gravestone before glancing at Tamar through the corner of her glasses and offering the woman a playful, mischievous wink.
Nemi turns and nods softly.
Lykaia keeps her gaze west-bound, until she gives Tamar a brief glance. “My voice is recovering to how it used to be.”
A soldier of the 63rd fires off a shot at Lykaia which misses her.

Mercy sucks her teeth audibly. “I joke cause y’all constantly act like wolves -are- a joke, make jabs about ’em constantly, an’ then flip-flop between that an’ how they’re oh so dangerous an’ mad. Pick a fuckin’ lane.”
Eric fires off a shot at a soldier of the 63rd which sparks off the ground near his feet.
Obadiah nods to Avalon, “And what we aren’t actually good at we are super lucky. Sometimes it is better to be lucky than good.” He considers this, “Yeah I am happy as a fairy.”

Lykaia says “Corpse of sixty-third soldier lying here.“
Mercy throws a small knife end over end at a soldier of the 63rd, it sparks off the ground near his feet.
“Wolves are based,” Kai nods in agreement with Mercy, he rubs at one of his eyes and looks off toward the soldier scout, “Hmm…”
Eric says “I think you’re all great, for what it’s worth. Except those of you who aren’t, of course“
“I could do without several of you,” Ambrose deadpans from his loiter by the extraction, taking another glance at his phone.
“You probably can fight even a cat on your own… Now, a bunch of cats working together, not so easily… It’s kind of the whole thing about wolves” Avalon replies to Mercy in turn “Someone strong enough can face one, but not lunatic packs…” Head glancing at the soldier for a moment before returning to Obadiah and commenting “Some of us are skilled enough to even force luck…”
Amber just settles down against the tombstone as Mercy charges off.
“I’ve met plenty of werewolves who were worthy of respect in their own ways,” Arachne extends toward Mercy in an unexpected aside. “Sadly, New Haven is sorely lacking in any werewolves worth taking seriously or not automatically dismissed to be put down like rabid dogs because they choose to act like such. Are you saying that you are different from the usual mongrels running amok and making a joke of your people?”
“Perfect front line,” Matthew decides, eyes ever on the field, watching the fight taking place in teh distance.

Lykaia steps forward and brings the baton down in a sharp, bone-seeking arc meant for the throat or the temple, whichever gives first, at a soldier of the 63rd that strikes his armor with bruising force.
Navessa gives Ambrose a horribly saccharine sweet look, “But not me, right?” She grins, just a little.
