“O-oh... sorcery... s-sounds sorta like... psionic stuff... or rust blood psychic stuff..”

KnightLight said:
“..... ever tried like... u-uh.... a JuJu....? Like... y-you know...”

Well, this was intriguing. He wasn't sure what "psionic stuff" or "JuJu" is, but the mention of the word psychic shows that this man...or beast? is on the right track when it comes to understanding sorceries. Sorcerers do in fact rely on logic and the understanding of the spell's... implication or construction as one part of it. The other portion comes from the use of one's soul, most noticeably in the case of crystal based sorceries, or at least that what was theorized back at the Dragon school in Vinheim. In this case, spells of this sort might best be described by a more archaic term, the soul arts. The two notable exceptions to this would be the golden sorceries of Oolacile (that are tied with the manipulation of light) and the various Hexes and Humanity stained versions of sorceries. Orbeck himself has never trifled with the darker varieties simply out of caution.

But, let's get back to Orbeck and the troll.
"I had never heard of Psionics nor Juju. Any chance you can explain what they are?" he asked

Your head perks up a bit.. this guy is the first one who’s wanted to hear about your culture!! And it made you a bit ecstatic on the inside!! To most humans, alternian culture was... harsh... inappropriate.... but this guy showed... SOME sort of interest!!

“O-ok wow uh... s-so... some... gold blooded trolls can be like... born with psychic powers called uh.. ‘Psionics’... and... they can levitate stuff and- and it sorta... works like electricity I guess... and I mean... well... they are used as living batteries sometimes even but uh... a JuJu is like... a big part of alternian culture cause like, they are these super rare powerful items... and like, no one knows where they come from, but they all do really cool things... I’ve... never seen one though... so...”

You hoped that answer would suffice!! You wanted to show a good impression of your culture!!

“O-oh and then uh... sometimes rust bloods and bronze bloods have uh... psychic abilities... rust bloods can talk to ghosts n stuff.. n... bronze bloods can talk to animals so that’s cool I guess... uh... yeah....”

Tenshi Hinanawi|Atmosphere Is Tense

thatguyinthestore said:
Upon making her way to the back of the store, Tenshi would find more and more foods, waters, et cetera old creepy stuff. However, possibly the most intriguing consumable she found was a giant pink cardboard shelf, with a dog's face printed at the top.

Various tapes that read "DO NOT SELL" in all caps were stretched over the display, and behind it Tenshi would find that the packets themselves were called "Smile Dip". Did Tenshi take some?

Tenshi looked upon them. 'Smile Dip'? Interesting, maybe it'd be useful for something even if she doesn't use it herself! She helps herself to one and takes it with her, though has no intention of trying this 'Smile Dip', fearing for what may actually happen. 'This place is pretty weird,' Tenshi thought to herself, 'so I don't think it's a good idea to try these things out right away with no idea what they'll do. I'll just keep one with me as a failsafe! Can't go wrong there! If I don't use it, I don't use it!' Furthermore, she takes one Smile Dip and then heads off to the front to see what 'else' there is. If anything.

--Whisper The Wolf-->

Whisper took a step back in surprise as she heard the skullbowl say some sort of joke in a loud obnoxious tone while its eyes lit up bright orange. This led her to assume that this store was something of a halloween store. However, looking around, this doesn't seem to be the case. In fact, the store's more of a small supermarket with a lot of variety. She glanced back at the strange toy, thinking if she should take it with her or not. She's not sure if it'll be worth anything, but hopefully, this will cheer up Mabel in a way...If it won't, then perhaps she could take it home and show it to Tangle or Silver. With a nod of confirmation, she took the skullbowl and hid it under her cloak, soon turning to the store's freezer to see the peculiar man, penguin, and the blonde with a shield stare at what would be a senile old man.

Bizarre as it may, Whisper thought the man might know something. Thus, she approached the freezer.

"Excuse, but..." Whisper spoke as she got near the freezer, speaking ever so softly, but loud enough. "Do you...Happen to find any ghosts in this store?" She asked, wanting to know the location of these ghosts.

Morgana was right, the group was in trouble. Big trouble. The man’s attention turned to Shadman as the man in black tried to talk. “I don’t care what you’re here for. You can come back tomorrow during pool hours to grab it.” It was clear that Poolcheck wasn’t fighting the group because he was told to, or because he hated the group, he was fighting the group merely because they had broken the rules of the pool. “Whether it was your idea or not, you’re still the ones breaking the rules.” The red shirted man countered Hiryu’s argument. However, his attention couldn’t stay on those who were willing to talk for long as a gnome was thrown directly at him.

With a single hand, the life guard reached up and caught the gnome. “No throwing gnomes in the pool area!” He growled, his annoyance growing all over again as yet another rule was broken. That was when Fulgore rushed him. The bald blonde dodged most of the punches and kicks, however, a single jab hit his lip and Poolcheck smirked as blood started to ooze from the cut. He wiped it away. "Only the pool is allowed to make me bleed.” He growled, but before he could attack the robot back, Valentine appeared behind him, saying something.

The lifeguard acted quickly lifting his right hand to block the needle from hitting his neck, thus, instead the liquid was injected into the man’s right hand. He turned. “No needles in the pool area!” He yelled, ramming his forehead into her nose.

Poolcheck’s keen hearing caught the flap of Luna’s wings and he looked up just in time for the Alicorn to drop the spiders. He flinched, lifting the gnome that was still in his hands to swat the spiders away. That was when Plutia charged him, aiming for his most sensitive area. The fear of having his balls crushed forced Poolcheck’s already quick reflexes into overdrive as he caught the girl’s leg. And then just simply pushed her backward, not hard, just out of the way. “Why must you all insist on breaking my pool’s rules?” He asked, his gruff voice seeming to shake with not only anger, but genuine emotional pain. “Like you!” Pure rage grasped the man as he threw his clipboard at the stick of the skimmer that Prompto was using, breaking the skimmer in half.

That was when Johnson finally decided to jump in. Poolcheck rounded on the man. “If you have your warrant to check my pool, and I can call your commanding officer to make sure it’s a real warrant, you can have those thirty minutes, because those are the rules. But without them, you’re trespassing and I will not allow my pool to be trespassed.” The God of the Pool stood firmly, ready to lay down his life for this pool if that was what the group would force him to do. Rules were an absolutely necessary part of society. Without the rules, anarchy would be inevitable. Rules were created to keep everything straight, and running smoothly. Yes, rules did infringe upon certain liberties, but they protected lives... What selfish animal wouldn't make that trade for the better good? And as the head lifeguard of the pool, it was Poolcheck's job to make sure that trade was upheld. If people thought they could break the rules, then nothing would run smoothly, people would get hurt, crimes would go unpunished, and then civilization as you know it would crash and burn at the hands of those who decided they were above the law. No! Rules needed to be followed! However, Poolcheck liked this man, though he did fire a gun on pool property, he was at least trying to keep order, so was another man who yelled over everyone. Johnson and Conners...Poolcheck turned to them. “Like I said before, I don’t care what you’re looking for, unless you have a warrant, you’re going to have to come back during pool hours.” His voice was as firm as his buttocks.

The shed that Hiryu checks is just filled with pool noodles, life jackets, floaties, and different kinds of pool toys for the kids to play with. There were no signs of a mermaid whatsoever. However, as he left the shed, he would see the pool water ripple as if something had just ducked under the water just a second before.

With Sans at the bottom of the pool, he would be able to see the blue green flash of a scaled tail as the mermaid dashed around the pool. It was clearly trying not to be seen and trying to avoid anyone who was trying to capture it. Finally, however, the mermaid caught sight of the skeleton and stopped, eyes wide. “What are you doing here?” The mermaid, no, the merman asked, swimming just a bit closer. “You should leave before that crazy lifeguard sees you.” The merman’s voice was rather deep for his age, and he had a hot Spanish accent.

Johnson growled.

"You heard the man, General John Connor. This is as high as it gets. I'm on his orders."

The Sergeant said, gesturing to John Connor.

"We don't have time for a warrant, given that it is imperative that we search the pool."

Not there. Of course, why would the mermaid be anywhere near that crazy Pool Check? Getting out of the shed, the scene that was laid before had became...Slightly more civilized.

'I forgot we had two soldiers with us.' Hiryu slammed up his hand onto his face, only now realizing what their course of action should've been. However, that's not the only thing he noticed. One of them was missing. And if that ripple is a sign of anything...Then someone took advantage of the situation and sank in quietly.

You know, unlike that purple haired ditsy flatso who dove in as if playing in a private pool...

Although...It doesn't look like anyone had any way of cutting hair....Let's just hope whoever's down there is successful at getting the thing without them going up at the wrong time.

Isabelle
Thankfully the man didn’t seem to have harmed Mr. Gnome in any way. He simply caught the tiny creature and scolded Isabelle for throwing him in the first place. You know, besides the initial chucking of the little girl he didn’t seem to be that bad of a guy. He was just doing his job after all and she could respect that. If Isabelle has switched to his career she’d probably do the exact same thing in this situation. Well besides being a badass and deflecting attacks, but everything else would probably be the same. So she didn’t get mad or anything when he stood his ground. That didn’t mean she wasn’t disappointed or anything.

More importantly he still had the gnome in his manly grasp. There was absolutely no way she was going to just abandon her miniature fellow then and there. They had been through too much together! To just leave the little guy would go against everything Isabelle stood for. She scampered to the front of the crowd with her bells jingling with every step. Ignoring the painful bump still on her head, Isabelle got the attention of the beefy man. Hopefully he wouldn’t be too surprised seeing a talking dog ask for her gnome back.

“Excuse me Mister! Can I have the gnome returned to me? I’m sorry that we caused all of this trouble for you”

Fulgore pauses, still in his battle stance. The battle seems to have ended as soon as it began. Disappointment filled his circuits, how was he supposed to do anything when everyone ends conflicts with negotiation?
Fulgore will still consider this a win. He strikes a pose.
"You are the worst companion I have ever had, Even worse than The Arbiter."
The preachy soldiers remind him of the preachy alien. Not as ugly as the split faced being, but at least Arbiter would FIGHT!

As Tenshi pocketed the Smile Dip and headed off toward the front, she would find a pink arcade like game next to a shelf of soda bottles. The game was titled “Dancy Pants Revolution”. Its screen was glowing as a small cartoon figure danced across the screen as arrows rose up from the bottom of the screen and disappeared once they hit their respective hollow arrows at the top, with different messages for each one. “Perfect”, “Bad”, “So Close”, “Good”. Would she try her hand at the game or continue exploring?

By the freezer, the Old Man, was still waddling around like a penguin, but he turned his attention to Whisper when she approached him. “Ghosts? I haven’t seen a ghost since I was knee high to a lizard man. Not like that matters, ghosts aren’t real.” He announced. “But I would be careful around these parts. People say they’re haunted!” With that, the man turned back to Benedict at the offer to eat Josh. “Well Banjos Strings, I ain’t have a good meal in years,” the man started, pulling a fork and knife from his beard before stepping forward. He grabbed Josh, sinking his old, weird teeth into the penguin’s head.

Morgana

Morgana watched in shock as the Poolcheck dodged, blocked, or didn’t even flinch to any attack thrown at him. “Is this guy even human!?” He looked down into the water hoping to find what they were looking for so they could get the hell out of here. He noticed Sans and some sort of Mermaid? Morgana didn’t care what it was exactly all that he cared about is that it was half fish. “S-S-Sushiiii~!” He meowed excitedly, but he soon realized something. It’s in the water and there’s no way he was going to get in the pool.

Tenshi saw it and chuckled. "Oh, finally! Something fun in here! How does one operate this game?" She would ask herself aloud, watching the screen show her some form of example. "Ah, OK... Just step in time to the beats... Got it! This should be fun! Step to the beats, Tenshi... Just step to the beats!" Tenshi decides to give it a try, not sure why not to. Though it seems like she'll lose track of the exploration, but hey! Let her live a little, she doesn't have these things back home (neither do many others, but this is but one machine)! She stepped on up to the pad and grabbed the frame, beginning to play and hoping she'd have a great time doing so, before the actual game itself began to play this 'Dancy Pants Revolution'. Nothing will go badly with this, surely!

"My clothes? Come on, man! You could've told me before we came here. I don't want to be attacked by death ghosts just because I wore the wrong clothes....Hold up...this is an easy fix." Delsin, desperate to avoid getting killed by some crazy ghosts with a vengeance against rebellious clothing, began to take off his clothes. Not all of his clothes of course; Delsin had a feeling that being buck naked might get on the ghosts' more than the clothes he's currently wearing. The only things that needed to go were his beanie and denim vest, as Dipper mentioned, as well as his hoodie, just to be safe. All that was left was his flannel shirt, jeans, and sneakers. Hopefully the ghosts won't go bonkers over that.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever, Bakugan..." Delsin just ignored everything Baka Toga said and waved him off. The Conduit had better things to do that argue with a kid who's about to get rekt by ghosts; it would be best not to stay too close. Delsin chose to brows the aisle of the store a little bit. Sure all the snacks must have been expired by now, but there could've been some other cool stuff that doesn't expire, like lighters, spray paint, and Twinkies, not that Delsin expected any of the three in a store like this.

Julie hadn't really expected to find anything edible inside a store that had been abandoned who knows how long ago, but even so the counter search had still been disappointing. She didn't know most of these products, and those that were even remotely similar had brand names that were still unknown to her. The cat-youkai had just stood there, trying to make sense of... whatever it was she had been looking at. Cereal in boxes? Also some weird meat strips, that read beef 'jerky', whatever that last bit was supposed to mean, she couldn't get quite close enough to read all the tiny text... From all of the ingredients names that could be read, the most recognizable one was 'chocolate' and the feline already knew to stay away from that one as the caffeine contained in them could be harmful for smaller creatures such as cats.

Even if by being a youkai as opposed to a normal cat made her more resilient than usual, avoiding any possible problems was just smarter than risking it.

Bored with her product inspection, the Siamese had been about to claim one of the counters for a new nap, until some ghosts decided to appear or something, but then a certain young man had decided to run his mouth again and she just couldn't contain herself. That blondie just really ground her gears... Look, she was the one supposed to be doing all the berating. There could only be one!

" 'I worked very hard to get where I am!' ", she had mocked loudly, imitating Byakuya's intonations though without her powers he couldn't get the delightful experience of hearing his own voice saying it, "Come on, validate my efforts as I proceed to tell all about myself!! I'm in no way hiding any insecurities while posing as an irritating know-it-all! ...Baka bakashi." ^(Laughable.)

"Are you aware that this is how you sound? No? Well, I thought I'd let you know~~ Kansha ni shitte yo." ^{(Be grateful.)}, the cat purred playfully, swiping her tail, "Here's a piece of advice, they don't have to live a hundred years to realize that those that truly own something of value don't go wearing it on their sleeves to flaunt it... Make of this what you will, young one."

Muttering a 'Now I'm bored' to herself, Julie had turned around hopping out of the counter and leaving those three to keep bickering amongst themselves. Looking for something else to explore, the Nekomata had begun pacing around when two voices had caught her attention. It seemed that the human from before had started an intriguing conversation with... a grey oni? A really odd looking one, for sure. With a mischievous grin, the feline had lowered herself, stepping softer usual, sticking to the shadows of the darkened store...

And then she lept into sight, making sure to land right in front of them:

"ARE WE discussing magic over here?!", Julie had made sure to start it suddenly and loudly, hoping to startle at least one of her 'team members'.

Callie hung back on the way to the shack, again. She was more diligent, keeping an eye on everyone who moved from the main group. She also kept an eye on slugcat, wondering just what they were going to do to the thing. She still felt like it could do no wrong, and that Tenshi was more likely the traitor. At least, she maintained this to keep the pressure off of herself. She never does well under pressure. She knows that well enough from the unfortunate leak of her plans. She had tried to get away from the attention the Squid Sisters were getting, and well, someone found out.

She smiled through it all, making her way past the small crowd of devoted fans, but she had never felt more pressured and isolated before in her life. Even in Calamari County, where the nearest home was several miles away, she always had her cousin and her grandfather. They didn't expect her to excel. They didn't expect her to be perfect. And she liked it that way. The attention this crowd gave, however, pressured her to be her best self. An unsustainable figurehead. She nearly cracked under all the pressure, and hid from the public eye down in an old, scarcely-visited location, Octo Valley.

Of course, Callie was sure whoever might be reading her mind at this moment knows what happened after that. Imagery of special sunglasses flashed in her head. Crimson tentacles, purple spray paint, a tattoo... She checked under her shirt quickly, noticing that the octopus tattoo was still present. She could probably recycle the ink and make the tattoo disappear, but... it was cool. She liked it. And it wasn't hard to hide it the old-fashioned way either. It was stylish and cool, and a new style she thought could work, if not for the symbolism behind it. A shame. She pulled her shirt back down in a hurry, before she was called a pervert for stripping in the forest, or something.

She heard a rustling in the trees halfway through the trip back. She turned to the spot in an instant, pulled the trigger on the charger that found itself in her hands once more, and release the bolt of ink towards the instigator of the sound. A stray gnome jumped out of a bush just in time to avoid getting eaten alive by Callie's ink. Instead, the bush payed the price, as the leaves covered in ink melted away to leave a dry, charred mess of branches. Callie frowned, shook off the feeling, and caught up with the rest of the group.

Back at the shack, slugcat was taken downstairs to a device Ford really didn't want to use. It was a device built to detect the influence of a particular isosceles monster. Unfortunately, it seemed Callie was wrong in her hasty assumption, and slugcat was guilty of being possessed by the... strikingly stylish yellow triangle. She wanted that hat. And that bow tie. She could look really cool with those things! And that was a very sharp shade of yellow. If he hadn't possessed an innocent cat and murdered the doom marine, she would've said she already liked the guy. Of course, Callie often forgets that looks can be deceiving. She probably shouldn't trust him.

She snapped out of her momentary trance, listening to the further request of Ford. A mermaid hair, and a canister of ectoplasm. The mermaid hair was going to be found at a pool, which Callie immediately ruled out, and she didn't know what ectoplasm was, so she had decided. She was going to... stay at the shack, try to find Mabel, and maybe cry on the floor with her. It's just a girl thing, that girls do. That person reading her mind right now, they wouldn't get it. Unless they, too, were a girl. In which case, they were invited to cry on the floor with Callie and Mabel! But that would be weird. Get out of Callie's mind!

Anyways. Here she was, simply sitting on the roof, having found an ajar window leading outside. She picked up a loose shingle, and looked it over. She was surprised to find a familiar triangle etched into its underside. Unlike before, the single eye of the dream demon seemed to mock her from his metaphorical prison. She paled, and put the shingle back down. He wasn't actually there, right!? He wasn't.

She got up, and decided checking up on the rest of the non-native people in Gravity Falls was a good idea. She figured if she just wandered off into the woods she would find what she was looking for. And, as it seemed, she was right. (Hopefully. Excuse my hand-waving here, I need to get back into the action somehow.) She walked out of the forest after a few minutes of wandering, in front of a convenience store. An abandoned one, of course. She found it due to the eerie unnatural glow the lights produced from inside it.

Callie smiled, seeing some semblance of ink-able surface beneath the simple wire fence in the way. She fired another shot from her charger, the tinny sound echoing through the (presumed) night. She transformed into a squid and swam thoughtlessly through the fence up to the wall-sized windows, totally oblivious to the various warnings against loitering and trespassing. She, being a member of the New Squidbeak Splatoon, was desensitized to any possible consequences to trespassing, given what the splatoon had been through as a whole, fighting the Octarian menace.

She smiled wider, waving to all the familiar people inside, oblivious both to the potentially class-ten ghosts inside and the locked door a few paces to Callie's right. She shouted, to get through the solid glass, though undoubtedly it was still muted and difficult to discern what she was saying, "Hey, guys! How is your search for the ectoplasm?"

You immediately turn around, with this face of... surprised anger, more than anything else. Without warning, you slam your palm down on the... purr-beast... and make a rather loud, grizzly snarl, sounding surprised and scared.

Moments later, you snap out of your enraged attack, and your face goes paler than it already is, being grey and all. Your breathing goes heavy, as you realize you.... might have... just killed someone...

“.... o..... oh gog... o.... oh g-gog d... did I.... did I c... cull someone?! W..... what did....”

You look like your about to pass out... you slowly and shakily lift your hand.. wether the purr-beast escaped or not, the floor had a massive dent in it. The tiles has been broken, and there was a giant palm print where your hand was.

"So, your race is somehow split into categories or "blood types" of sorts, each with some sort of a...trait or ability. And a...Juju as you call them, are items possessing power of unknown magnitude. Correct?"

He was going to ask yet another question, only to find that Julie has jumped into the conversation, presumably interested in Orbeck's mention of sorceries and maybe the Troll's various traits. Having said experience as a spook at the Dragon school, it did make him more aware of his surroundings. Yet in this brightened environment, she was able to get the jump on them. It might just have something to do with her size and the compact nature of those stores shelves. of course, how would the troll respond?

Even she is using that term to describe sorceries, it is only meant to describe the offensive power of a spell. not as a blanket term.
"Hello again Julie, we were initially talking about something of the sort, it might have been better to directly approach us rather than making the giant next to me affrighted."
That's what he would have said if it wasn't fro the troll's reaction.

"Unlikely. If she was able to sneak by without so much as a sound, then she may as well know how to avoid such a confrontation."
Orbeck stands himself up from his former position and takes a quick glance around the immediate area.

The grey oni creature had released the most loud yet hilarious sound that Julie had ever heard anyone react with, but she didn't get the time to truly savor it as the change in the wind current made her whiskers flutter indicating that something was coming downwards directly at her and at incredible speeds! Oops! Time to book it.

With a startled 'Mreoooow', the Nekomata had jumped backwards, fur standing on end as the natural reaction to danger. The other's first had hit the ground, the amount of force had been just as expected from the obviously inhuman wind accelerations for earlier. For a normal cat, that could have been a fatal meat slushie occasion, any more and perhaps the whole store would have shaken. Would have been impressive if it had been anything new to her...

"You should be more careful of where you point that thing!", she hissed, pretending to be angry though the act had not lasted that long.

From the irritated tail swishing and aggressive ear positioning that she had been trying to pull out, Julie snickered allowing her whole stance to relax a bit. The snicker grew into giggling, then laughing to end on full on cackling as if she had just gone insane for a moment. But oh no, not insane, just alive, pretty much alive. It had been the most thrill that the feline had felt in years! And it felt amazing!! Everything from her pounding heart, to the blood rushing through her ears, to the standing fur, it threw her waaaay back to when she'd actively fight other youkai for territory, or to keep with her protection agreement with the humans.

...Though they had not reciprocated in turn. Tch! Human beings just had no honor in their promises... They could not be trusted.

"Unlikely. If she was able to sneak by without so much as a sound, then she may as well know how to avoid such a confrontation."

"Yeah, what the grumpy male human said. I've been through a lot worse dear, don't worry your little head...", she purred playfully, "You're going to need a more than that to put me down for good! So well, feel free to try at a later time and I'll gladly play with you again~~"

Winking at the unique-colored oni, the cat decided to stretch herself. Oh my, that little prank had turned to be a lot more promising than she had imagined~ That creature had good reactions, she'd be sure to remember it for the future chances.

"Anyway, I was bored, so I thought I'd hang with you, two gentlemen...", Julie had announced bringing her tail forward to properly re-groom it, "Now this is the part where you entertain me."

Motioning with her paw for them to continue, the cat-youkai kept giving her tail licks, sticking tufts of fur back on their places.

"Chop, chop!", she hurried them again, though not really paying full attention.

To your IMMENSE relief, there was no smashed purr-beast under your giant hand... instead, the small lusus was further from your hand.

“.... I-uh.... ok....???”

You look back down at the human, trying to remember what he had said.

Laix_Lake said:
"So, your race is somehow split into categories or "blood types" of sorts, each with some sort of a...trait or ability. And a...Juju as you call them, are items possessing power of unknown magnitude. Correct?"

“S... so... yeah.... we... have a caste system based off of blood color... and well I’m a blue blood, so I’m... uh... noble... we’re called highbloods... where... trolls with red to green bloods are uh... low bloods and mid bloods... s... so yeah.... a... and a JuJu is... just some tale I guess... no one knows if they really exist...”

You felt a bit awkward being watched by a purr-beast you had almost culled!! You look back down at her, still a bit mortified that you had almost crushed her!!

“.... so... uh... what are both your names....?”

Holy shit, Shadman thought the Poolcheck was going to drop dead after the barrage of attacks his comrades dealt but he proved himself to be quite capable, badass even, blocking attacks without flinching! Shadman can feel the testosterone radiating of him, he's that manly but they're gonna need to distract him for a while as Sans dived into the pool in search for the Mermaid then they can book it and leave this place because Shad doesn't know if he can handle this guy, he's just too manly for him but maybe he can keep talking to this guy to prevent him from attacking, Sans better hurry the fuck up because he can't talk forever but just in case the Poolcheck charges at him, he has his twitchy hand near his Luger.

"Come on, man." Shad said. "We'll never break the pool rules again, do us a favor!"

Shad was impatiently waiting for that pun-loving, ketchup drinking fuck of a skeleton to get on with it so they can leave this rule obeying weirdo alone, he'll obviously start attacking if we don't leave the premises immediately and he seems like a tough motherfucker to beat judging by the previous attack that he just blocked and he even smirked when The Robot(?) managed to get a hit on him. So, distracting this guy for a while until we finally get the material we need would be ideal for Shadman because he does not want to waste a bullet, he'll probably use it for something more important such as shooting himself in the head if things go so terribly wrong!
