[OPEN]

Who: The Freelancers and anyone else
What: Nightmares
When: Through the Nightmare plot
Where: The Mother of Invention
Rating: TBD, potential warning for torture or other really bad things, as RvB Freelancer era isn't very nice

This is the Frigate Mother of Invention. The home base of the UNSC's top secret Project Freelancer. As much as the frigate might have been lively before, now it's full of eerily empty echoing halls, windows into the empty blackness of space, and alarms that seem to be going off all too frequent. The training areas have grown a darker, more sinister air. As for the medical areas and the research labs? You really don't want to go there.

[OOC: Okay, there will be specific nightmare threads within this that I'll be linking on the main post and I will put warnings if any of those might be too bad. If you'd like to join in from outside cast, either hit one of those or start a new thread. We'll be tagging around, and I'll link any new threads you might set up.]

Locker Room (York)  |  Ranking Board (South)  |  Implantation Room (Washington) (Warning, not sure how bad this might be)  |  The Director (Carolina)

[Nothing's alright, really, that much she can see and feel for herself. She can't quiet the urge to just go and move and do something other than stand around and chat.]

Yeah. I need to. [But she's somehow still standing here, watching him.] York, what're you doing with those?

[She gestures with her head to those pistols sitting next to him.]

[He hesitates for a long moment, unsure of how much to share with her. But she's Carolina; she deserves to know it all. Doesn't she?]

Wondering how we can keep the live ammo out on the field where it belongs. The rebels already want to kill us - why should we have to worry about our own people, too?
youfallback: (A: It's like Jersey Shore in space.)

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-07 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
We can't. [Carolina answers, pessimism eating into her. Not if the Di--- No, the Director wouldn't do that to them, no matter what CT said. He wouldn't give them live ammunition to use on the training floor.] It'd mean keeping us unarmed 24/7.

[Which is something she's definitely not comfortable with.]
encryptedlock: (h: scarred for life)

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-08 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
And that's not acceptable. I know.

[He sighs, setting the pistol down again.]

But I'd settle for keeping it out of exercises they tell us aren't with live ammo.
youfallback: (A: &Tex: Don't fall in that crap.)

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-16 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Guess we just have to be prepared for the possibility at any point. [She continues to watch him from her place near the door. Honestly, she wants to go sit next to him and reassure him, but that would be fraternizing and strictly against the rules.]

How're you feeling? Eye any better?
encryptedlock: (h: one bad eye)

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-17 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Color me excited. [He looks up at her and gives her a brief, humorless grin. He wants her comfort and presence too, but--he'll settle for a conversation.]

It doesn't hurt so much. Still can't see any better out of it, though. I'm going to have to rely a lot more on my equipment on my left side from now on. [Well, and on his teammates.] And on you.
youfallback: (A: &Maine: Stop being a big baby.)

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-18 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Carolina flicks her gaze back toward the window in the locker room and the scoreboard glaring them both down. York dropped down since the exercise but funny how she doesn't think any less of him.]

Just means I've got your six and nine. You get the rest. [Her tone is surprisingly bright, though, despite the slightly macabre nature of her words.]
encryptedlock: (h: boy scout)

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-18 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
You do know what six and nine make, right?

[York wiggles his eyebrows, despite the scar. No, he's not talking about fifteen. Pickup lines are important.

Besides, he has full confidence that he'll get back any lost rank during the next mission.
]
youfallback: (A: &York: Get it open okay.)

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-18 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yeah she's just going to not give him any slack to pull on here.] Fifteen.

[Because she definitely knows what he's implying. She keeps her arms firmly crossed where she's leaning against her locker.]

Think you're up for a training session?
encryptedlock: (h: beefcake)

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-18 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I really got to teach you some alternative math.

[But he'll grin and reach for his helmet anyway.]

I could do that. What have you got in mind? Hand to hand?
youfallback: (A: &York: Stop strutting. :|)

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-30 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[Carolina doesn't even dignify his answer with a shake of her head. Not encouraging him, most of the time, means not responding. She moves over toward the window, eyeing her position on the board before turning back to face him.] Hand-to-hand. Could use some practice against something that can fight back.
encryptedlock: (badassitude)

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-30 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's used to it. And besides, if he never gives her an opening, she can never respond positively.]

You got it.

[Not that he has any illusions that he can beat her one-on-one, but it's good practice anyway.]
youfallback: (A: It's like Jersey Shore in space.)

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-30 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[Carolina nods over to him before heading out of the locker room, trusting he'll be right behind her. Honestly, she wants to talk to him about a couple other things, but she can't seem to remember them right now for some bizarre reason.]
encryptedlock: (gotta come off)

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-30 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[He slips his helmet on and follows her out, stretching a little as he walks to get ready.]

So you want to go until you kick my ass three times, or five?
youfallback: (A: Receiving transmissions from Kirk.)

hopefully this works with you!

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-31 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
Three times should be enough. [She walks with her usual hip sway, despite feeling a little nervous about the sparring session. She slides the door open and the training room isn't the usual training room. Instead, it's an elevator, but large enough to spar in.

She doesn't recognize it, but the dream tells her it's more than fine enough to spar in, that this is just enough room.
]
encryptedlock: (are you sure)

you are a bad person <3

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-31 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
[York, on the other hand, stops stock still at the threshold. He knows this place. Somehow he knows this place entirely too well.]

This--is this right?
youfallback: (A: &North: Should I talk to her?)

<3333

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-31 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Carolina pauses near the middle of the elevator and nods as she turns to face him. ]

This is... [No, this can't be the training room, but she's supposed to fight here. The dream's telling her that much.] Yeah, this is right.
encryptedlock: (bring it on)

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-31 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
[But he doesn't want to fight her here. It can't end well. At the same time, he can't think of a good reason why it's wrong. It just is.]

All right. Ready when you are, then.
youfallback: (A: Oh the front of your face!)

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-31 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Carolina settles into her usual fighting stance before launching right into an offense. Her leg swings toward him, not a powerful move, but one that could be quickly followed if she needs to.]
encryptedlock: (hop on over)

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-31 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
[He'll dodge back and return with a swing of his fists. One of her main advantages is her agility - he's good at hand to hand, wouldn't be third ranked if he wasn't, but he wasn't kidding when he said she'd beat him. Doesn't mean he won't put up a fight, even if he was nervous as hell in this room.]
youfallback: (A: Let's get down to business!)

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-31 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Carolina brings up her arms to block as well as try to grab his wrists at the same time. Their sparring session suddenly feels more serious, like there's a lot more weight behind every movement. If she's able to catch his wrists, she'll try to swing a larger roundhouse kick at him.]
encryptedlock: (bring it on)

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-31 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
[She catches York's wrists easily and knocks him back with the force of her kick. He seems to recover quickly enough, though, and circles around to launch a couple quick jabs at her from the right.]

You don't have to do this, you know.

[He doesn't intend to say the words, but they seem to come out anyway.]
youfallback: (A: Flips n' shit.)

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-31 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
What? [The words catch her off guard and one of his jabs catches her right in the side, but instead of backing down and asking what he's talking about, it instead seems to fuel her. She unleashes a rapid series of kicks in his direction, unrelenting, and god she feels like she's fighting for her life now.]
encryptedlock: by <user name=larissa> (in the eye)

[personal profile] encryptedlock 2012-10-31 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
[He blocks these a little more easily and tries to catch a leg to attempt to flip her. It might work, but if it doesn't, he'll at least try to rush her to get his advantage.]

All this. The rankings, the blindly following orders--you don't have to dance to their drumbeat.
youfallback: (A: It's like Jersey Shore in space.)

[personal profile] youfallback 2012-10-31 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
[When he catches his leg and attempts to flip her, Carolina does what she can to move with the momentum and lands more or less on her feet after, crouched down where she tries to swing a leg to knock his out from underneath him.]

I need to. [The words rip from her mouth before she can stop them.] I know what I need to do and I'm doing it.
