b/c this... my reaction
 
AU.2- Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Adam's head was going to explode. Just because there was a Top Five system to the Lords of Terror does not mean they could all come together like they were family.

"Now now brother, haven't you ever heard of Armistice Day?" Shay asked, smirking from the far end of the banquet table. They were sitting at opposite heads of the table, to have the maximum amount of people Adam would need to climb over to splatter his elder's brains on the wall.

"THAT'S NOT THE SAME FUCKING HOLIDAY." Adam raged from his side, before slamming his head in the table. Ava was at his side, making sure he didn't accidently kill himself.

"Is this really necessary, hon?" Ava asked, setting up the various condiments that Adam's attack on the table toppled over.

Adam just sat up, wild-eyed. "He-You...What?!" Adam sputtered, unable to articulate the RAEG.

Was everyone just trolling him?

"Oh come on now, can't family come and talk over a nice dinner once in a while?" Shay asked, clearing out an ear.

Adam surged to his feet, "FIRST, GO FUCK YOURSELF. SECOND," He threw his arms wide, "THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT MY FUCKING FAMILY, AND NEITHER ARE THEY YOURS!" Adam screamed.

Seated to Adam's right were Ava Pyrre, Daniel, another mouse-y woman with raven hair, and...Corpse, at Shay's left. Not even a zombie, Shay literally took a corpse from outside and set it on a chair. Not that present company was adverse to it, but it didn't improve Adam's disposition. From Shay's right Assistant was seated, followed by the portly Lord Techron in all his blue-TRON-like stature, followed by Lord Oculus in his all-encompassing trenchcoat sitting silently, before finally ending with Levi and Aria Crowley who was seated to Adam's left.

"Language. There are children here." Shay said, wagging a disapproving finger at his brother.

"You are going to die slowly, and painfully." Adam promised.

"Didn't you say the same thing, as your family lay dying at my Master's feet?" Assistant innocently inquired, before dodging a lightning-speed butter knife.

"You're next." Adam threatened, as he was popped on the nose by Ava.

"Now you, settle down. While I'm setting the food up, you will keep your temper, okay?"

*Grumble Grumble*

"Good~!" Ava says, kissing him on the cheek while departing from the table.

"Whi-pish! Whi-pish!" The mousy-looking woman down the table smirked as she made whipping motions.

"WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU EVEN HERE? WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?" Adam was this close to pulling all of his hair out from this insanity.

"Me? I'm Bailey! I'm Lord Void's stand-in for today's gathering~" She replied, cheerfully. Similarities to Ava were immediately obvious.

":jackiechan:"

"Well obvioussssllyyyy Void couldn't show up in person~! It'd break character!" Bailey cheerfully exclaimed.

Adam swung an accusing hand over to Trenchcoat,
"Oculus is here without his horde! That's not a thing, ether!"

"Yeah, but you know what Oculus looks like~! Void is still a plot point!" She retorted.

":facepalm:...Whatever."

"Ohhoho, seems like quite the lovely party you've assorted, Terror!" Lord Techron exclaimed from the diaphragm.

"Shut. Up. Techron. I swear to god if you show up at Christmas again..." Adam warned, exasperated.

"Ohhoho, but Terror! We have a little one to...entertain." Techron boomed, trying to subtly indicate Aria.

Adam didn't notice, as he was mid-faceroll.

"Ah, I'm back!" Ava called out, followed by Zombie-butlers carrying various dishes.

As the food was (grudgingly) passed around, Shay stood up suddenly,
"Now wait just a moment...!"

"..."

"...What?"

"We need to say grace!"

As Adam's face hit the table, you could hear a muffled, "You've gotta be fucking kidding me."

Suddenly, Aria stands up. "God Bless us, everyone!" She says with childlike glee.

Shay grins a toothy grin, "God save the Queen!"

"God, please kill me."

Happy Thanksgiving. Even if you don't celebrate it, take time out of your day to talk to a family member. You only get a few of them.

[x] STAB STAB STAB
That stupid jerk burned down our house and is trying to steal all out friends' stuff.
 
I finished the character sheets for everyone.

Since stab is clearly going to edge out, Votes Locked.

However, what's the plan?

[x] Cold Open- Stab him right in his face instead of answering.
[x] Ankle Shanker- Pretend to be led off by him, then go for an inside-guard attack.
[x] Write-in

To refresh, You've got the (seemingly unarmed) armed Daniel behind you, along with two guys with rifles of some kind. In front of you is the Blonde Captor, who is armed with a pistol that's safely tucked away in a holster. To his sides are the other two men with rifles.

There are people in makeshift watchpoints, but you're currently in a blind spot right inside the gate. In addition, the men around you may or may not be carrying other armements. Daniel has (at least, if it comes down to it I'll roll for hammerspace) two+ kunai.

Keep in mind your stats and skills, and you could make this work.
And an Omake might reveal mr. Captor's character sheet...
 
[X]Ankle-Shanker
also, we need to find a way to stay a little girl forever, and then we need a Scythe three times our size, why? for the sheer incongruity of it of course!
 
I'm gonna lock this in a few hours. Gonna roll a lotttttt of dice.

I'm not saying that you're leaving Daniel to take care of four guys, but I AM saying that four actions in one turn is a -4 to hit for all of Daniel's attacks.

Does he have to make four actions in one turn? He could take out two of them first before going to take out the other two.

But maybe aim for one of the guys with rifles first, if possible? Since it seems like they're much more ready to shoot than the blonde captor.

You're gonna have to be specific mate, it's the difference between taking a -2 to Aria's stabbing him now or letting the other guy take a turn.

If Aria goes for him (but doesn't, like, attack him yet) then Daniel will settle for the other three, which is a more manageable -2 to his roll.

ITT: How many shots can a badass take?

I'll lock it sometime for realzies, I got tired and passed out before. Make them plans, tho.
