[004: Video]

[fuckinghysterical]

[Today, LB is fully decked out in her Octopus suit to address the network. It might be odd, since she wasn't presently in danger, but she still had a good reason for it. Also, keep in mind that her voice is an oddly distorted mixtures of her normal voice and a deeper, gruffer voice.]

Good evening, Tranquility. Or is it day? Heeheehee? Who knows, in space.

Well now, despite getting mixed up in the hallways, the latest adventure was a little fun, don't you think~?

[She gives an exaggerated, playful shrug. Yes, she's being dead serious here.]

But that's not why I'm making my message -- hahaha -- judging from the reactions of others I've run into, I'm assuming about half of you are loading up your guns in preparation to slay me. So as a common courtesy, let me get one thing straight: I am not one of the monsters running around here! So quit shooting at me!

[After three times of being shot at or almost being shot at, LB was getting really sick of having her life threatened for no good reason. Dammit, Zer0, Mordecai, and Lilith, what was wrong with you guys?!

She then points to the camera with a metal tipped finger, continuing.]

So if you still feel like shooting me, I'm going to shoot right back? Or maybe I'll put a tentacle through your stomach -- heheheh -- depends on my mood. So don't fuck with me, got it?

[Right, right. This was all starting to deviate from informative to more threatening than she intended to. Raising her hand to one of her straps, she rubs at it as she reels back.]

Uh, anyway, nice talking to you all.



[OOC: She'll be out of her suit and speaking with her regular voice by the time people start replying. She just wanted to play show and tell, okay.]

[ It might have been a while since she last spoke to LB; definitely before the whole hallway-ordeal. At least when she responds now, she's still as concerned as she would be before. If not more. ] Are there passengers really preparing to kill you? Anyone you know of in particular...?

Video |

[fuckinghysterical]

No one in particular -- heheh -- but so many people just shoot at me as soon as they see my Octopus form without even asking any questions!

[LB gives a small huff, looking vaguely annoyed. Sure, she did love her battles, but this was starting to get ridiculous.]

From a human's standpoint, it's instinctive. Anything larger than them or strange to them is an immediate threat. [ This applies to the City as well, except many things are larger than a person and harmless. Like Builders and other machines or creatures at the service of humans. ]

At least you've warned them now. They'll have no excuse if they decide to attack you again.

[shoyu]

Eh -- that certainly does sound terribly unfortunate, and I'm sorry to hear of it. But. With all due respect, when you're dressed in such a manner you, ah -- [ how to put this politely ] -- cut quite the intimidating figure, m'lady.

video.

[fuckinghysterical]

That's the point, eheh! It's supposed to scare my enemies!

However, people could at least ask me what the hell I am before shooting!

video.

[shoyu]

Mmm. [ a slightly awkward laugh, and then: ] I must admit, I'd very much admire a person capable of reacting in such a manner if they've been startled.

audio

[supfirehawk]

Yeah, I'd like to avoid the tentacle treatment. [There are some things you just don't joke about, LB.] Shooting at you was an accident, all right?

audio

[fuckinghysterical]

[Based off of most of what she had heard from people regarding tentacles around here, LB gives an exasperated sigh.]

Listen, I'm still not sure how this "tentacle porn" is supposed to work, but I promise that I'm not going to do that to you.

[muttering:] Heeheehee... I prefer men anyway.

audio

[supfirehawk]

That... isn't what I meant. But nice to know people around here are thinking of that.

[video]

[circumitus]

...

[Not gonna lie, LB, but Rey would have probably shot at you if she didn't know any better.]

Why do you wear that if it's going to make people shoot you?

[video]

[fuckinghysterical]

[YEAH, you and everyone else, apparently.]

Because it makes me stronger. Gives me abilities I wouldn't normally have without it, heheh.

voice

[idkmybffbloodwing]

Heh, yeah, sorry 'bout that. I'm used to seein' weird-lookin' robots an' gettin' shot by 'em, so now I tend to shoot first. Honest mistake.

voice

[fuckinghysterical]

[A long, exasperated sigh from this end.]

I guess I understand, but just don't do it again, understand?

[inebriety]

[Oh how curious.]

What a fascinating suit. What are it's functions?

video;

[fuckinghysterical]

It is, isn't it?

[Modesty, LB.]

But, ah, it's mostly used to blend in with the environment; you know, like an actual Octopus? But it can shapeshift a little too.

That, and the tentacles have a pretty wide variety of uses -- heheheh -- mostly combative, though.

audio;

[dirtyword]

[ This is some goddamn sci-fi bullshit 8| ]

If it helps, wear it. [ Simple, straight. To the point. ] Not gonna fault you for being stronger on this rust bucket.

audio;

[fuckinghysterical]

It does, which is why I do wear it. Heheheh -- but I want to make sure that no one else shoots me, you know? Gets a little annoying, after a while.

[Even if there's a good chance that she could deflect their bullets anyway.]

[logicunlocked]

[ Oh, now this is no fair. ]

So that's a suit of armor, huh? And you found it, what, in your locker?

[fuckinghysterical]

Something of the sort, yes.

As for when I got it, it was sometime after the tenth jump? Haha? Two jumps after I got here. I'm not sure how they fit it in my locker, but, ah, it was there. Or rather, it kind of fell on me, when I opened it.

Then don't dress like a monster.

[fuckinghysterical]

[darkholme]

Someone tried to shoot you?

video;

[fuckinghysterical]

[Oh hey, Raven! Long time, no see! She gives a small smile in greeting before shrugging at her question.]

Yeah, by three different people -- heeheehee -- and the funny thing about it is that all three of them were friendly enough before.

[certainproclivity]

Eloquent as always. [Faintly amused. Oh, LB. He does so appreciate you.]

[fuckinghysterical]

[She shrugs, feeling slightly embarrassed about her message, now that she was out of her suit.]

You think so? Heeheehee? At the very least, I'm sure it gets the message across.
