Title: -The City Administration Office- A Forum RP.
Post by: Reaver on November 01, 2012, 10:54:52 PM
//Right, so in light of the fact that the server is down, and we are all bored, that's right, I'm speaking for you, I've decided to create a Forum RP for us. The rules are as follows,
Everything that goes on in this thread is strictly In Character, as in what happens will carry over to the City Server, and will be counted as In-game goings-on.
Treat this as you would the City, meaning anything said can and will be used against you if you decide to be a knob.
All rules that apply on the server apply here, and if you do something that will warrant you being killed in this thread, you will be removed from the CAB as if it were on dat City server.

The room was filled with a waxing glow from the small, enclosed window within the wall adjacent to the broadcasting equipment. The distant sounds of radios emitting shrill pings could be heard coming from below the elevator shaft, as well as the closing and opening of doors. The low hum of a distant Helicopter could be heard passing over the otherwise quiet city as a man stepped out from behind the Broadcasting Camera's view. He wore a dark coloured suit with bright lapels, the tie that hung from his collar lain immaculately against his pressed undershirt. He raised his free hand, the one not clutching the off-white carbon-fiber cane, and ran it through his slicked back hair. It was early morning, and he had just declassified several documents, relaying the information to the public about the new Third Precinct. As he slowly used his cane as a strut, he shambled over towards the desk at the far end of the room. The silence was suddenly broken by the loud groaning of the lift, slowly making its way up the shaft towards the office, bearing an unknown occupant..

  31749 heard it, too.  Until now, she had been standing silently in a dark corner of the office, her blue lenses concealing her ever alert eyes.  As the hum of the lift became audible, 31749 cradled her OSIPR as she turned towards it.  While her heavily augmented mind had calculated the probability of the occupant being a malignant as very low, her programming could never allow her to be too sure.  Even around those of the High Command, 31749 had planned how to kill everyone she met, whenever the order came down.  She released the safety on her weapon, and the mechanism hummed to life in her arms.  Whoever was using that lift had better have a good reason for it.

As unit 773 was keeping the citizens in order, making sure they are watching the broadcast, he hears the elevator as well, not paying attention to it at first. However, as he sees the CA looking to the elevator, he knew something is going on... He quickly reaches for his radio.[/i]
C45.CCA.GRID-05.773 radios in "<:: Is... Everything alright in the CA office?"

Sitting in the break room eating her food she sees an unknown person dressed in a suit head to the elevator then places her mask on and radios in <:: "Who is going on the elevator without reason?"

The elevator continues to loom upwards, clinking and clanking as the platform rises up along the shaft. As it reaches the top, a female comes into view, and she's wearing a rather neat and formal uniform, like that of a City Administrator. As the platform reaches the top with a slight slam, the female reaches upwards slightly, adjusting her collar along her jacket. She then flatens it out, taking in a deep breath. She proceeds to turn to her left, stepping off the elevator and walking towards Cullen. The woman in the suit clearly dons some form of idenfication along her chest. Should the OTA unit utilize her visual augments, she's be able to see that the woman is Dr. Alisha Tallen, a formal City fourty-Five administrator. She stops, slightly before the OTA unit, as not to approach the doctor any further without approval.

"Hello, Doctor Cullen. It's been quite awhile since we've last spoken."


Sorry if I took some great concept you had coming up lol. Just wanted a neato way to re-introduce Alisha to the CAB, and I thought this'd be cool. If you need me to change that whole sequence up for something you had setup, I can do that.

31749 relaxes her stance as Dr. Tallen comes into view, powering down her OSIPR and returning to her niche.  Her lenses remain focused on the new arrival, however, following her movements and scanning her physical appearance for any possible abnormalities.  Satisfied, 31749 returns her gaze to the Consul, allowing the Doctor approach.

No offense to you, Reaver, but starting off a Forum RP with a mystery (Who is on the elevator) is a good way to create a schism and allow people to hijack the RP (As has been seen).  Just saying :X

As 773 hears through the broadcasting mic the voice of another CA, he calms a bit, still standing near the citizens.
773 radios in "<:: I would guess everything is in order up there... Going 10-50 around P1."

He then proceeds to the sidewalks, patrolling.[/i]

In the lowest section of the Nexus, the many units who are not on-duty are either wasting their time away, or sleeping in the barracks. A man slowly rises from his comfortable bed, as he fights the urges to get up. "Don't worry about patrolling, just let your head back down and take a nap." he thought. That was when he used his common method of waking himself up - thinking of all the nasty comments high command would have to say about him sleeping on the job. Unsuprisingly, it worked. He got out of his bed, and looked around the dark room. "As always, I never want to leave the barracks." he thought.  He had gotten out of his bed, but did his best to remain silent, for there were other units still sleeping. "Lucky little twits.. He made his way over to the locker, and lazily put on the enlisted uniform. It looked clean, as if it had never been used before. He tried his best to pay no mind to how spotless his uniform was, him being more use to a dirty - relaxed uniform. He gently closed the locker door, then walked down the large hall, until stopping infront of a elevator. He pushed the button, and before he knew it he was on the main level of the Nexus. He reached over to his radio, clicked the primary button, and said out loud:

"Enlisted unit 155, on-duty. Moving to 10-50, Precinct 1."


Btw he is C45.CCA.APEX-03.155 so ye boss him around

Guys, I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but this is a roleplaying thread for The City Administration Office, not for the general CCA. Just going to throw that fact out there for the units posting here. OTA units I can see, but not CCA unless they apply...
Title: Re: -The City Administration Office- A Forum RP.
Post by: Reaver on November 03, 2012, 10:42:38 AM
Well, if a unit wants to come up they can(IF THEY ASK STILL, this is still IC). I'll make a CCA RP thread as well, also, to Hazard, when I put the 'someone coming up the elevator' part, I meant for it to be another CA's entrance, but ye you're right. lol I'll post a new response IC in a bit.

The Consul gives a curt nod to the Overwatch Soldier, setting his focus on the new arrival, he smirks, looking down at the myriad of suitcases and several large binders that strewn his otherwise barren and empty desk. The CAB paraphernalia that used to litter the room is now absent, all of it confined within several crates in the opposite end of the room. Pierce clears his throat, gazing at Ms. Tallen..

"Good evening, I dare say it has been quite a while, how are you?" 
Title: Re: -The City Administration Office- A Forum RP.
Post by: Lone Wanderer on November 26, 2012, 12:23:29 AM
Doctor Tallen can't help but crack a slight smile accompanied by a smile, noticing the strange state of the room. After scanning it for a few moments, she returns her gaze over to Cullen, beginning to speak...

"Well, I must say the past few months have been rather hectic. I've been traveling between cities 17 and 22, collecting data within both of them and working to organize some civil activities. I requested a transfer, however, as I completed my project and they gave me the option to come back here. So, here I am. How are you doing, sir?"

After the regular patrol laps, he  gets into the nexus, going to the break room.

773 then radios "<:: Everything seems quiet... May I come up to the CA Office?"
Title: Re: -The City Administration Office- A Forum RP.
Post by: Reaver on November 26, 2012, 07:59:22 PM
"Outstandingly You and I seem to be the last two remaining. Everyone else has already made the move."
Pierce drops his hand to his radio, wrapping his fingers around it, he raises it to his mouth. "Do as you wish, I have precious few minutes before we depart, however."

Post by: turhral=S=C= on November 26, 2012, 11:35:57 PM
773 hears the reply, heading to the CA Office Elevator.

He then radios "<:: Thank you, Consul. Heading to the CA Office.

As he goes up the elevator, a very loud noise comes from it. As it stops, a unit with Enlisted uniform is seen, looks like he has a low-ranked mask and Vocoder. After a closer look at his arms, you can clearly see that he is at GRID Division, ranked 05.
He quickly turns to the CAs, saying
"<:: Good morning, Consul, Doctor.
He walks out of the elevator, standing near the wall that is opposite to the OTA, staring at it.

  Even as the Consul gives permission for the unit to enter the offices, 31749 instinctively powers on her AR2, double checking the charge of the pulse battery.  As the unit comes into view, she grips her rifle tighter, focusing in on the unit, watching his every move.  As 773 stares back at her, 31749 says nothing, watching him, and making sure she always has a clear line of sight.  This unit has little reason to be here, and 31749 does what she usually does in her free time:  Observing the best way to put him down before he can draw a weapon.

Awakening from his bed, Dr.William House strides off his bed and places two feet onto the ground. He wipes his soft hands over his roughned skin and uses his index finger to scratch away the crust from his eyes. He pushes his chest out forward and stretches out his arms, letting out a large yawn and folding back inwards soon after. Dr.House then pushes his body off the bed and slowly paces over to the UU-Branded closet. He opens up the double doors and grabs his standard set of Tan City Administrator buisness attire and places them on the bed. Dr.House walks over to the bathroom and removes his night wearing material. He then slides the shower curtain to the side and presses the small button for warm water. A rush of soothing warm water brushes quickly over his head and slides down to his chest and legs. He uses this time to think...to think heavily....

Time passes....

Dr.House slides on his tan dress pants casually and slips on a brown belt to secure it to his waist. He then slides on his shoes and bends over slowly, tieing both shoes in a double knot. He walks towards the door, straightening his tie and clearing his throat as he heads towards door. He presses the button and the door slides open, revealing a long corridor heading down the hall towards the City Administrator Elevator. Dr.House passes by the Elevator button only to extend his arm and reach to press the button, sending the elevator down his way. The elevator finally reaches him and slows down towards the bottom and finally hovers down to a halt slightly above the floor. He slowly walks onto the elevator and folds one arm behind his back, fist balled up tightly. He then uses his free hand to compress the elevator button downwards. He later places his head down, recollecting his thoughts for his next speech. The elevator reaches the top and slows down upon arrival, it was then Dr.House slowly lifts his head to the sight of the Consul near desk (?) and the Unit standing near him(?).

Dr.William House says, "Evening. Does anyone need anything before I ask permission to start this speech?"

As 773 sees the OTA grips tight to its AR2, quickly looking at the consul, "Gupling".
The elevator suddenly goes down. 773 quickly looks at its way, move to it. He sees someone goes on it, but can't identify who due to the height. He walks back to the same wall, looking at the elevator closely.
The elevator finally comes up, and another CA is visible.

773 says "<:: Evening, doctor. No, I'm good."

I am standing near the wall that the OTA is facing, so I don't think that I am near the Consul.

Pierce looks over towards the arrival of the unit and Doctor House, giving only a cursory glance before packing the last of his items, "Afternoon, House. You can try to give a speech, but there is not interface to do so. Everything has already been moved to the Embassy. The machine is basically vestigial. Your belongings need to be packed, so get to it, please. We're leaving within the next few hours. I just have to speak to Sectoral Commander to finalize the move." The Consul rubs the bridge of his nose, obviously stressed out by the move.

Post by: [LP]GMK-MRL on November 30, 2012, 06:03:24 PM
House first nods to the standing unit and calmy moves his glance over to the Consul, giving him a slow, yet curt nod.

Alright, i'll go ahead and start on this then. Don't worry Consul Pierce, your stress will be removed once we get to the Embassy.

He turns his back towards the Consul and the Unit, only looking over his back to the OTA guard standing watch saying....

I do love these Overwatch units. I wonder how they are built. Anywho, back to work.

He presses his hand down on the elevator button and folds both arms behind his back, grinning as the elevator shifts downards.

After House went down the elevator, 773 walks to it as well, waiting untill house finally comes out of it at the bottom floor. He presses the button, waiting for the elevator to go up.
He looks to the consul, saying "<:: I'd better go organize the citizens while Doctor House is giving the speech."

Post by: Reaver on December 01, 2012, 11:02:40 AM
Pierce grabs the radio hanging at his hip, face-palming mentally as he quickly brings it to hos lips, "Doctor, I was being sarcastic. We have to get ready to move, we haven't any time for a speech. You can give the first when we get to the Embassy, if you so desire."
Title: Re: -The City Administration Office- A Forum RP.
Post by: [LP]GMK-MRL on December 01, 2012, 11:10:05 AM
House let's out a deep sigh and a slight chuckle. He then unclips his radio and compresses down the respond button and brings it up closely to his mouth.[/b

Consul Pierce, I know that I don't have time for a speech. I'm heading off to my room right now to pack. I'm in the hallway right now.

He then proceedes to burst into laughter and moves the radio from his mouth for a slight moment and brings it back up to his lips.

How can I make a speech if i'm not in the Office with a bluetooth anyhow?

Post by: turhral=S=C= on December 01, 2012, 12:21:03 PM
773 hears the chatter, looking down a bit. He walks to the elevator anyway, saying to the Consul and the female CA "<:: I guess there is no speech after all. Anyway, I'm going outside, so if you need any assistance just tell."

The unit presses the elevator button, and heads down the elevator. A large noise comes from it, as it always does. As the elevator arrives to the bottom floor, he gets out from it, heading downstairs while unholstering his stunstick, and quickly radios "<:: 10-51 Nexus stairs." He gets through the airlocks, then outside the nexus and standing near the Barriers.

Becuase this is the CA Office thread, I won't post unless someone is talking to 773.
