All I wanted was a quiet night.

[baloki]

It's been a rough few weeks on the run, I'd pulled up a stool at the bar in Astro D's. It was a bit of a dive, but the best place to hide was in the slums of Jupiter so I made do and asked the barkeep for something strong. My eyes kept wandering to the door, the barely lit street outside, the neon signs aglow advertising all sorts, it was then she caught my eye. What was she doing around here, I lowered my head over my drink, hoping I'd blend in with the bar. It didn't work, she'd noticed me, she came over and pulled a stool next to me and sat down. "Long time no see 'Loki" she said in a faintly menacing tone, "You too Angela, things going well in the Space Pirate trade still, or you down in the slums permanent now?". She let out a quick laugh and I felt the long, cold shaft of a sidearm pushed into my side, and to my left her old strong arm Tai took the other seat.

"Let's dispense with the pleasantries shall we? I'm here to offer you a job, of course if you don't take it I can't let you leave here alive.", she was always so pleasant when she wanted something, still I had no choice but to listen to her offer. She sat there quietly explaining to me about some laboratory on one of the outer moons and they had some interesting work being conducted there, I explained how I found this all very enlightening but what did it have to do with me? I didn't have time to find out, it was at that point the long arm of the law burst in, Jack Ravendaw, mean, ruthless and deadly. The bar went quiet...

And thus did the Second Great Age of the IRC drew to a close. After forging a great room from naught but stolen memes, randominity, and Airport spam, Tai spake, "The community hath changed, and I have little love for such things. I go forth now into the great unknown to seek fortune and adventure amongst the strange realms of the kingdom of Real Life. Perhaps some day I shall return to the realms of IRC. Look to the place where I had came, if you see a tree of cats in the rising sun, know that I am returning to the realm of Cynicism." And with that, he saddled his trusty internet spaceship, and rode out from the pavilions of Acidchat. No honor guard of the Illuminati or even anyone else fell in behind him, mounted upon their finest fourm titles and &. In the dead of 2:00PM, down the great thoroughfare of phpBB he rode, looking neither right nor left at the empty streets in the grand avenue. A full hour did this somber procession last until Tai reached the gates of Green Sheep. As he passed through the portal of Havoc into realms unknown, a great hue and cry arose from Tai's lips; "THE ROOM IS NO LONGER DEAD! LIVE WITH THE SEED I HATH SOWN AND KEEP IT FERTILE WITH THINE SHATPOASTING! LOOK NOT BETWEEN NO TEXT, THERE IS NO HIDDEN MEANING HERE!". Then the Great King of #DefineCynical, grievously wounded by all at the battle of lol _______, was spirited away to the mystical lands of fog - there to remain until his IRC is in dire need, when he will ride forth once again from the mist to grimly absorb abuse once more.

It was that Sir Splaydirt threw Tai's IRC into the fiery sun of Ire, whereupon it was grabbed by a metric shitload of hands bathed in pure white samite. A final curse snuck from his lips: "Stupid goon." Most Arlo and Zaaph discussed music with Jacen and Javs. Astro quacked and sipped tea over Introtl;drs discussion in Portujuys. Kojiro filled in where Lilac used to be. RavenPuff, glad to be out of providing Socks for Tai, Dos in his mysterious ways seeked to fill Tai's role, or maybe not. In either case Fritzkeal tagged along to learn how to sail unbelievably bitty sailing vessels. As nickspoo attempted to prove his britishness, Liz apparantly decided to fade away, just as many others.

It was then BalSnowCoat above noticed RavenPuff bursting in. And then there was silence.

And then I got, like, a sandwich and a beer, and, like, watched wrestling on Pay Per View, and stuff.

[Ibun]

tl;dr.

Hi Snowcat. <3

[Arloest]

Screw you guys.

[Steve the Pocket]

All I wanted was a Pepsi!

...So, this is what, DC's foray into the world of online RP?

I have no idea; but I want a Pepsi too.

[baloki]

*has a Pepsi* And no, I was just writing about where I've been the last two weeks

[Doc Sigma]

All I wanted was to have some fun until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard.

Tai no. :(

I didn't fade away. I exploded.
