I8: Anger Room

Onyx stepped into the Danger Room and started a session. Something enormously physically taxing. With spinning blades and giant pistons that tried to smash you.

She ran the course over and over again, looking a bit more emotional then usual. Also if she weren't facing holographic representations, she'd be making a wreck of the place.

"I'm starting to feel bad for the holograms," Sean said staring at the path of destruction Onyx was wreaking. From the safety of the observation deck.

Onyx caught a saw blade bare handed and glared at the observation room. Swinging it like a discus, she threw it towards the window.

Sean really couldn't help but flinch. Not everyday a saw blade flew at your face even with glass and Sean reflexively used magic. The saw blade burst apart pieces flying every way but towards the observation window.

"My...apologies?" Sean asked staring at Onyx.

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 12:12 am

Onyx just glared at him for a moment.

"I am sorry," she says shortly, "You surprised me."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 12:22 am

"Wasn't quite my intention," Sean said, "Just never seen anybody beat an obstacle course by demolishing it."

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 12:38 am

"They probably lacked the proper ability and training," Onyx says, "I have been raised since I was very young to deal with minor obstacles like this. I can handle myself."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 12:41 am

"The saw blade being tossed at my head certainly proved that," Sean said, "You must've gone to a stranger school than I did and mine did have an obstacle course just not quite like this one."

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 12:44 am

"I did not go to school," Onyx says, "I was trained in the slaves pens of Madripoor."

"Although I am beginning to doubt that anyone here understands what that means."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 12:50 am

Sean hid his shock as best he could because Onyx wasn't freaking out about it so that meant he probably shouldn't. And she did just throw a saw blade at him.

"Hard for people to understand much of anything they've never experienced themselves," Sean said, "Especially something quite so...different."

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 12:54 am

"Then they should not act like they do," Onyx says, "...I am sorry. This is not your concern."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:02 am

"Mages are good listeners or at least that's what I've been told," Sean smiled.

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:07 am

"A mage?" Onyx asks, "...I am not sure I understand what that means."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:14 am

"Wielder of magic, over the years we've been called shamans, sorcerers, conjurers, witches, warlocks," Sean said, "Though the last two have a somewhat negative connotation."

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:15 am

"Oh, so you are like Ms. Valentine then," Onyx says with a nod, "That makes sense."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:20 am

"We do both wield the same source of energy," Sean said, "Having never met her I can't say much more than that."

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:27 am

"I do not think she would like you," Onyx says.

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:31 am

"Why's that?" Sean asked.

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:35 am

"She has been suspicious of other people with magical abilities in the past," Onyx explains.

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:45 am

"Not a...bad to have some sense of caution when dealing with people who can wield magic," Sean said, "What about you?"

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 1:48 am

"What about me?" Onyx asks.

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 6:06 pm

"Does me having magic powers make you distrust me?" Sean asked.

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 7:20 pm

"Magic abilities do not make you a threat to me."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 7:28 pm

"That makes sense," Sean said, "What does make somebody a threat exactly?"

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 7:32 pm

"Ability, motivation, opportunity and willpower," Onyx says.

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 9:00 pm

"Fairly straightforward," Sean said, "So is hurting poor holograms a hobby around here?"

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 9:38 pm

"It is part of our schooling," Onyx says.

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 9:48 pm

"You're on the teams?" Sean asked.

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 9:55 pm

"I volunteer from time to time," Onyx says.

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 9:57 pm

"And is that why you're training?" Sean asked.

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:09 pm

"I am not training," Onyx says, "I just needed the exercise."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:16 pm

"I know London weather isn't great but what ever happened to going for a run?" Sean asked. "Not that I have much room to talk seeing as I'll just head off into the wilderness to get my...exercise."

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:26 pm

"I can benchpress a small car. Running is not enough activity," Onyx points out.

"...I may also be trying to prove a point," Onyx admits.

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:33 pm

"What point would that be?" Sean asked.

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:35 pm

"That I am not some child that needs protecting," Onyx snaps.

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:41 pm

Sean cocks an eyebrow at Onyx's reaction.

"Why exactly is a lady who can bench press a car trying to prove she can protect herself?" Sean asked.

by **Onyx** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:47 pm

"Because my fiancee thinks that I am a weak little flower," Onyx grumbles.

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:49 pm

"Why exactly would she believe that?" Sean asked.

by **Onyx** » Thu Sep 08, 2011 12:10 am

"Because I brought a girl home," Onyx says, "...I do not completely understand it myself."

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Sep 08, 2011 7:03 pm

"Did you let her explain why she felt that way about the situation?" Sean asked.
