Big Brothers: Heroes ((RP Game Show))

Almost like a program initiated, Ash began helping Micaela clean up, not saying a word and just doing. He followed her suit, mimicing her movements when cleaning. Eventually, he said his goodnights to everyone and proceeded to enter the bedroom.

The bed sank under his surprising weight while he manipulated the power generator beside him. Within minutes, Ash had 'shut down, and tiny blue circuit beams blinked like a tiny epileptic nightlight in the darkness while he lay on the bed.

((OOC: I could've sworn I posted a reply to this, but it either vanished into lalaland, or I was hallucinating.))

Jason enthusiastically tries to help with the cleaning up for a while, but coming close to breaking several dishes and stabbing himself in the eye with a spoon dampens his zest somewhat. After a while, he rather dejectedly says his goodnights and slinks off towards the bedroom, where he collapses onto the first empty bed he finds. In a matter of minutes, he's snoring lightly.

Micaela stayed up cleaning the dishes, even as the others drifted away, one by one, off to bed. After Ash left, she turned off the lights, but continued cleaning. Finally, satisfied with her cleaning job, she herself headed to sleep.

Walking into the women's bedroom, she walked toward the last remaining bed. Her journey was cut short, however, as she tripped over Varon's unconscious form, falling with a loud thud. Embarrassed, she picked herself up, but no one was awake. After a few failed attempts to move, or even rouse Varon, she gave up. Changing into her sleepwear, she grabbed the blanket and pillow off her bed, walked into the lounge, and went to sleep on the couch, wrapped in her blanket.

"Please..." Alexandria pleaded, tears streaming down her face as she stared at her assailant. Her eyes moved down the man's arm to the blade that had once been his arm, hovering inches from her neck. "Please... don't do this..."
Alexandria, Samantha, and Crystal had been captured in their homes and taken to what appeared to be a large laboratory, where they were shackled to the wall with high-tech shackles. The surprisingly attractive man that had captured them had immediately set his sights on Alexandria once they had awoken. Crystal and Samantha were paralyzed with fear, yet at the same time couldn't look away as the a hideous, wicked smile spread across the man's otherwise incredibly gorgeous face.
And the man WAS gorgeous; comparable to the male supermodels seen in magazines, even. He wasn't "built" like many of the male Heroes in Paragon City; quite the opposite, he was rather lean and effeminate-looking. However, underneath his red trenchcoat, one could easily see the rather impressive set of muscles showing through his skin-tight black shirt. The flawless skin on his face, his sapphire eyes, and his long, black, wavy hair looked as though it had been chiseled by God Himself.
"Oh, don't worry..." The man said, his tone soft and gentle, the type of tone a parent would use to sooth their child. As he ran the tip of his blade gently across Alexandria's face, he looked deep into her eyes. "I'm not going to harm you." He chuckled as he saw some relief flow into Alexandria's eyes, his pupils widening and his tone suddenly becoming undeniably harsh. "Don't misunderstand me. There's nothing I'd like more than to tear open your flesh, to watch your blood spill onto the floor and to hold onto your hand as I watch the life drains from your eyes." The man inhaled deeply and he quickly turned away from Alexandria, his entire body shaking as he buried half of his face in his right hand. Breathing deeply, his body ceased shaking, and he turned back to Alexandria, a polite smile on his face as he brushed his long hair away from his face with a flick of his hand.
"I apologize, I sometimes lose myself like that and..." The man sighed deeply, his expression changing to one of concern for only a moment before reverting back to a polite smile. "Where are my manners; I haven't even properly introduced myself." The man backed away from Samantha and gazed over his shoulder at Crystal and Samantha. He made a quick motion with his arm, causing his red trenchcoat to flap behind him dramatically as he bowed to all three girls. "My name is Natas; I'm the 2nd Ranked Member of the Science Coalition."

Varon bolted upright, his eyes darting quickly around the women's bedroom as he regained his thoughts. Sighing deeply, Varon rose to his feet unsteadily.
That happened three years ago... Varon thought to himself as he made his way out of the women's bedroom. I shouldn't be letting my life as a Hero interfere with my life here... I brought us all here to RELAX... He glanced quickly at Micaela, who was already asleep on the couch. Varon smiled to himself as he continued to the men's bedroom. I have to rely on Alexandria and the others to handle the Science Coalition while we're- Varon was pulled from his thoughts as he realized he was no longer in the men's bedroom, nor was he in the Big Brother house at all. Rather, he was on top of a warehouse, and the sudden blare of hospital and police sirens made Varon jump several feet in the air.
What the-? Darn, I must have been force-Teleported; and that can only mean... Varon turned around to see Alexandria standing behind him, her arms crossed across her shoulders as she narrowed her eyes at Varon, and Varon immediately recongnized her "deadly serious" tone.
"We've got problems." She said.

((OK, re-reading my last Post, I'm pretty sure alot of people in this RP are going to get the wrong idea about it. So BEFORE anyone gets the wrong idea about my previous Post, allow me to explain...

It was NOT, I repeat, NOT meant to set-up an "Attack" on the Big Brother House; in fact, I have NO intention of setting up ANY ATTACK on the Big Brother House using ANY of my characters, nor do I plan on introducing any of my "Villain" Characters into this Thread outside of Flashbacks and events occurring OUTSIDE of the Big Brother House.

I ASSUME this what everyone else in this Thread wants, too. If this assumption is incorrect, please tell me either in this Thread or via a PM. I don't want to get any of the other Posters in this Thread annoyed at me (as I have unintentionally done with other Open RP Threads in the past), so I'm going to make this next part PERFECTLY CLEAR:

The previous Post was ONLY meant to set-up my NEXT Post, which will help further characterize Varon. The reason I ended it as abruptly as I did was because QueenEtheria hadn't sent Kegen to bed yet, and in order for the "comedic ending" I'm planning in my next Post to work, I need ALL the other characters in the Big Brother House to have already gone to bed. In other words, my next Post ends in the morning, and I don't know how back-tracking or fast-forwarding (in terms of time of day) in Open RP works (or if it works at all, for that matter)

The reason I'm writing all of this OOC is to avoid the inevitable "What the...?!" questions that many of you will have after reading my previous Post. Sorry for all the confusion ))

(( OOC: hehehe...sorry guys, RL's been kicking my butt ))

Kegen brushed the crumbs off of her top and was about to offer to help with the dishes when Ash became super-robo maid and was giving Michela a hand. She kindly handed her plate off as Ash came by and glanced at Jason with a shrug.

"Guess I'll head off to bed now..." she replied and waved to the others,"Sweet dreams."

She walked into the room and stopped inside the door for a moment. She was able to pick out three distant breathing patterns. Female...female...male? she thought as her eyes adjusted to the dark. She shook her head and stepped over Varon's sleeping form.

Man, that looks uncomfortable. They are all so cute it makes me want to throw up!

She carefully crawled ontop of her bed, laying over the sheets and sighed softly. She threw her arm over her eyes and began to focus on her breathing, blocking out all other sounds or at least trying to. The CoL base was the only place she ever found that allowed her to rest peacefully, thanks to HorizenBreaker for soundproofing her room and adding a special cooling unit. She rolled over to face the wall, pulling the pillow with her to cover her ears, as if it would help. She could hear the three in the room very clearly and Ash and Michela in the kitchen. She could also hear Jason and Arden in the boy's dorm. She rubbed a hand over face in irrataion as she started to feel warmer. She flipped over and buried her face against the bed, pillow covering her head as she mumbled into the sheet, "not now".

An aura of heat began to slowly smolder from her body, shimmering the air around her. She tossed and turned, curling around the pillow in frustration. She froze when she heard Michela come in, keeping her breathing steady. She smiled slightly as the woman tripped over Varon.

She flipped back over to stare at the wall as she began to sweat more against the bed, the heat some how contained only to her. She released another slow breath as she closed her eyes.

She tried to think of calming things, cooling things, and shut out all noise she could hear. She thought about home, her SG mates, and how she was going to get back. With sheets pushed off the bed, head buried under the pillow, and t-shirt twisted around her sweaty torso, Kegen finally fell asleep.

Micaela woke up early in the morning. Slowly, she rose from the couch, her blanket draped over her like a mantle. Walking to the girls room, she entered, hopped over the space which Varon had occupied, and tossed her blanket on her bed. Grabbing her knapsack, she headed to the bathroom, again hopping over where Varon was.

Savoring the peace of the morning, she began to take a long, hot shower.

((OOC: Is Stu keeping up with this, or has he left the thread for greener postcounts?))

((Not posting makes the baby LaserJesus cry . . .))

Micaela emerged from the bathroom, wrapped in a pink bathrobe, her still-wet hair hanging limply around her head. Entering the kitchen, she made a cup of tea, sat down, and allowed herself to enjoy both the silence and the tea.

Jason gets up with a start, as he does some mornings.

Sitting up in bed, he glares wildly around for a few moments, then collapses back into bed, burying his head in the pillows and muttering darkly,

"Stupid dragons."

((OOC: So yeah... our gameshow host has been eaten by space monkeys? I was holding off posting also because our terrible Trio were about to do some entertaining thing in the morning...or so I thought.))

((Yeah, sorry about that, my fault

I just couldn't get what I had planned in my mind down on my word processor right I swear I must've erased and re-written the scenario at least 5 or 6 times, but I couldn't come up with anything that wasn't:

A) Offensive to some Posters
B) Long-winded and COMPLETELY off-topic to this RP
C) Just really, REALLY horrible writing and awkwardly-placed characterization (in my opinion, of course)

Throw that in with the fact that this last week has been a nightmare with some RL issues, and I kind of just decided to trash the entire idea

So, my apologies. I'll be busy for the rest of today, so I'm not going to be able to Post again until tomorrow Try and keep this Thread alive until then!))

((OOC: Bah... if it's necessary to the story that there be potentially offensive situations, feel free to target Jason. There's no need to tip-toe around, it's all in good fun hehe. Seriously, I don't mind.

Aaaaaand, how are we gonna keep this going without the gameshow host?))

((One last feeble attempt for this to notdie. At this point, I wouldn't be afraid of offending anyone. If it's too offensive, it will be edited or the thread will be locked, and that's no worse than the thread dying of inactivity, is it?))

Micaela finished her tea. The stillness had been relaxing, but now it began to be something between boring and disconcerting. After quietly placing her dishes in the sink, she made her way back to the ladies' bedroom.
