bakerstreet | the ASS KICKING battle meme returns

{ the ass-kicking battle meme }
because, let's face it-- it's what most of our characters do as their 9 to 5.

rules:

post with your character's name & series in the title. any preferences or notes to other players go here too.
tag around using the RNG, or feel free to make up your own scenario if you already have an ass-kicking prompt in mind.
kick ass and take names.

{ i. PRE-ASS-KICKING. }

1. GEAR UP. Can't fight a battle without the proper equipment, right? You're doing whatever you need to protect yourself from the enemy. Charging up mana. Strapping ammo to yourself. All in a day's work.

2. BATTLE ROOM. You can't just storm in there unless you want to get yourself riddled with bullet-holes-- so you've gotta plan how to down the enemy, and fast. Maps, floor plans, elaborate attack strategies.

3. PEP-TALK. All soldiers need it before going into battle. Fighting the end boss? Going up against an old friend? Better raise that morale of that pal of yours. Maybe they're nervous.

4. LAST GOODBYE. You know it's a lost cause. Say what you need to before you head out there.

{ ii. ASS-KICKING TIME. }

5. STAKEOUT. You and your buddy have been waiting for the target to appear for some time, whether you're cramped in a loft with sniper rifles or at a bar undercover with a pistol strapped to your thigh.

6. INFILTRATION. Whether you're navigating your way through hi-tech laser security systems, avoiding trip wires and empty can noise traps or sneaking into the enemy's lair in the dark, you're a pro at infiltration. I hope.

7. UNDER FIRE. From whatever common enemy or beast you pissed off, they're after you, teeth flashing or guns blazing. Better think quick.

8. SUDDENLY, UNARMED. Whatever weapon you use has been deactivated, knocked out of reach or broken. Ensue amazing karate skills.

9. MAN DOWN. You've been downed in battle by whatever you're fighting. Let's hope you're just unconscious and that your comrades are gonna avenge you.

{ iii. POST-ASS-KICKING. }

10. CELEBRATE. The boss is dead, the world is saved. Pop open that bottle of bubbly, will you?

11. HEAL UP. Whatever you fought is dead, but it sure did tear you a new one before it went down. Time for some first aid.

12. REFLECT. What's changed, now that the battle is over? Is the battle ever really over?

13. MOURN. You lost some good guys back there-- nothing's going to change that. You better come to terms with it before it consumes you.

[ooc: This is his effin' meme right here!]

[Hyperactive cop with a love for threatening physical violence. Would only battle 'criminals' of some variety, innocent folk get a free pass beyond a possible face punch.]

[ the 'observation' of the noah had gone sour. like, really fuckin' sour. lavi hasn't seen bookman for days - yeah, they got separated in the rather action packed fallout, probably something that slipped out of his mouth or something that betrayed his true intentions - and he's been on the run ever since.

what's absolutely fantastic is that he's been followed ever since as well, followed by things that very, very much want him dead, or at least catatonic. it's been hell, or as close to the hell that his normal life has resembled anyway. he's barely scraping through, and to be honest, lavi doesn't know how much longer he can keep running from fight to fight. he should be great at this though, 'cause he's a pro at running. thing is, it's usually from himself.

right now, he's sitting on a pew in a dilapidated church in the ass-end of nowhere, clothed in civvies that have singe marks, dried blood and tears in them, yet he still knows he's being watched. something's waiting for him. he knows it's only so many more breaths of this musty, sordid air until he's going to have to fight for his life - or what's left it - anyway.

idly, he wonders if he should entertain his regret. ]

::Gabriel let his curiosity about what a certain pair of hunters and their best friend, one of his little brothers, over-ride his good sense enough to situate himself near the warehouse they were working out of to watch they're comings and goings, and try to piece together the puzzle. Along with possibly doing something about it if he thought it was going to be a problem.

Which is why he's a reasonable distance away and keeping his Grace tightly under wraps to make himself nigh-invisible to his little brother.::
