Plague of Locust [Accidental Vid]

[The camera clicks on in the air, flying above the city with a constant vibrating hum in the background. Who ever is broadcasting seems to be slowly descending towards a grocery store meant for the organic occupants of the Nexus

Whoa whoa whoa~

There's airspace rules out there, you know! And one of them is about not eating humans~ Without probable cause, of course.

[endless_avarice]

[Frown] Not even just the extra bits she can live without? [pinches one of her arms]

[axiom_npc]

'Fraid so, my carnivorous companion.

Whats with the bug look, anyhow? Everyone knows its way cooler to go retro and stay mechanical~

[endless_avarice]

Hnph- I don't suppose you're going to tell me I need probable cause to eat cows too?

My purely mechanical form was lacking... And I am quite enjoying the new sensations this body provides. [Clicking purr]

[still transmitted, though if you're paying attention he's flying above you]

[axiom_npc]

Not so long as you don't have a beef with me! Get it? Beef?

...Or with whoever you're buying 'em from, and you'd better be buying 'em, sorry. They seem to like these things called 'laws' here, even if some of them are kind of silly. [And, well, its his job to enforce them, even if he prefers the part of the job involving bribes]

...whoa, whoa, there, that's probably TMI, my friend. But what I'm really interested in is...where you got those upgrades? The scan I got from your ID bolt shows you as standard Malgian, not biotech...

[Off to look for cows!] [Oh look, this is locked now]

[endless_avarice]

[His pun makes Dirge's antennae wince]

[Chitter] Wouldn't you like to know? Perhaps I could be persuaded to inform you if you'd consider forgetting to monitor a certain farm nearby...

[Locked, flying above ya]

[axiom_npc]

Ooooh, aren't you a sneaky one?

But sure. Sounds like fun. I'll be keepin' an eye on you though, so don't go back on our word!

Re: [Locked, flying above ya]

[endless_avarice]

Fortunately for you, I am not the liar clone. [Smirk] Watch all you want.

I'll give you the information when I'm finished.

[Aw, and just look at all the little farm animals bumbling around the pasture up ahead. How cute. Time for lunch!]

[Locked, flying above ya]

[axiom_npc]

Oh, I know all about you, Dirge.

[...mostly just cause he checked up on the files of EVERY Dirge that entered the city, in case one was his best friend, but he never got that kind of luck.]

I'll be waitin!'

[And he will fly about in circles watching you and making sure you don't take TOO many cows.]

moo moo massacre!

[endless_avarice]

[Turns out cows are a good size and pretty tasty- plus they make interesting noises! Eating is messy- which Dirge also finds sort of interesting. The clone kills and eats as many as he thinks he can get away with before slinking off to find somewhere to rest. He might need reminding that somebody is still waiting for information...]

[Action...]

[axiom_npc]

[...which'd happen. Have a bright yellow jet landing behind you.]

...so there you are. Satisfied now?

Cause either way, you owe me some names...

Re: [Action...]

[endless_avarice]

[Drowsy] Forgot about you.

Black Arachnia. [Yawn] Coordinates to her lab... would require more cows.

[Action...]

[axiom_npc]

Oh, cause I'm so forgettable. [He puts his hands on his hips.]

I could just shoot you, you know! How 'bout a little help.

Dantooine... they're on dantooine.

[endless_avarice]

[Very full and smug about conquering the hunger issue, he really just wants Thrust to go away. Dirge considers using his new abilities on the Enforcer but... he doesn't know what they are yet.]

[Hiss] Here. [The general location downloads to the other's comm device]

I don't want any angry farmers chasing me with pitchforks.

You see Lord Vader, she can be reasonable.

[axiom_npc]

[Ooh, a bing! He checks his comm, and grins.]

Then you'd better find a safer place to get some rest. See you around, buddy, and take care of yourself!

[He salutes, once, and goes to fly away.]
