(no subject)

Who: Rick Grimes and You. (OTA).
Broadcast: Fleetwide.
Action: All around (the ships, Iskaulit etc).
When: Now and onward! Basically, catch all for July.

A. Exploring/Investigation.

[ Given there are now more places to roam around and with his job as security, Rick will be doing just that. No matter where he might be, Rick will have paper and pen in hand, making notes that might appear to not make any sense given they'll be in morse code. He'll also ask questions to anyone who wanders by him, especially about the augments and job details.

When it comes to being on the Iskaulit, Rick will be trying to be find edible food and working out. He needs to run off excess nerves and energy. Also, trying to find a decent drink. So, bother him. ]


B. Glitch!

[ A slight augment glitch will make it so Rick sounds British for a little while but still with hints of his country twang and speech patterns. It'll be a mess and completely frustrating for him. ]

C. Video.

[ Another sudden change left Rick more frustrated than ever but the loss of Daryl and Maggie just twisted a knife worse in him. What happened? Did they return home or had something far worse happened to them? He wanted to believe the former but experience led him to always holding onto the latter.

With a deep sigh, he grabbed for the device to see what the network had to say about things. ]


Everyone is in different places now? [ He paused with a frown. ] Do people leave a lot? Just without warnin'? [ Now, he shook his head, looking sad for a moment. ]

If anybody needs any help with target practice, let me know. [ It would make things feel a little more level for him. Almost like how things were in Alexandria. ]

D. Wild Card.

[ anything else not listed above! if anyone wants to plot or want a starter, hit me up at [plurk.com profile] snowflakecrowns. also, the glitch will basically be Rick with Andrew Lincoln's accent. can be listened to here and Rick's accent here! ]

[It was a split second of hesitation, and Keith almost said something, but the other guy seemed to recover well enough.

He nodded.]


Thanks... I'll keep it in mind.

[He studied Rick for just a tiny moment.]

Are you a fighter, too?

{OOC: All the angst.}

[Keith took the offered hand.] I'm Keith.

[He glanced at the bag for a moment, curious.]

Okay.

[He didn't know much about Rick's fight skills, but he was wondering just what this guy thought he could show him. Between his own martial arts training, what he'd learned from practicing with Shiro, and the hand-to-hand he learned at the Garrison, Keith had adopted an interesting style, to say the least, but it worked for him. Throw in the bladed weapons he was learning to fight with since becoming a Paladin, and it was even more interesting.

Of course, Keith could be cocky about his fighting and piloting skills, so he could be completely wrong here.]

[Huh... so Rick was definitely more of a 'take them down fast' instead of a 'wear them out trying' type of a fighter. Keith could appreciate the different approach. He nodded in acknowledgement.]

Makes sense.

[It did. He considered the bag for a moment, visualizing where it was that Rick had hit it and wondering how that would work against alien opponents with different physiology. Learning which pressure points applied to which race could be potentially problematic... especially when trying to remember them all.]

I'm guessing you usually only fight humans, huh?

[He did reach out and stop the bag from swinging for a second, and then gave it a light push again to set it into motion for his own angle before striking out with his own attack. It wasn't exactly like Rick's, as Rick was definitely taller, but he hit almost the exact same spots on the bag and definitely just as fast. He was a quick learner when it came to movement, and the most agile of his team.]

[Rick might be surprised that Keith had pulled off a similar feat himself.]

Yeah? Seems to work when you go underneath the laser beams they're shooting at you.

[Keith smirked a little, but he could see the point in more hand-to-hand combat. If someone had a bladed weapon, they could bring it down on top of him if he was low. Still, Keith wasn't exactly tall, and had been going against some opponents who were much larger and taller than himself recently. He had been learning to try and aim higher with his hits.]

But, yeah. I can see that.

[Keith could adapt, definitely. He just needed the motivation to, and also someone to compare against. If given someone to learn from and change his style against, he could.]
tempredmental: (Ugh)

It was kind of new to us, too, when we first came across them.

[Keith gave a slightly sheepish shrug.]

It's been a lot of robotic drones, too, so they're easy to predict right now. But, I know that's not going to last forever. Eventually, we're going to come up against more actual living sentries and soldiers if things keep moving forward.

Like a battle drone or something? I don't know. I haven't seen one.

[He considered that for a moment.]

It would be handy, though. More challenging than just a bag hanging from the ceiling.
tempredmental: (Yeah Sure)

[personal profile] tempredmental 2017-08-07 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, if we have any robotics experts in the Fleet, it's something to consider.

[He shrugged a little, with a small smile.]

So, where'd you learn to fight?
