    Unsure of what format to do this or style, the first one turned out to be longer than I had hoped...for what was a short and nearly uneventful shift. Too much fluff maybe? Here it is anyway and I hope someone enjoys the read.

     

    NanoTrasen Anti-Syndicate Archive - Record #3924 :

     

    | Record #3925 - Play |

    - A small and near barren room is shown with horribly dimmed lighting. -

    - There is only three pieces of furniture. A small table and two chairs. -

     

    - A lone Vulpkanin sits on a chair with his back to the wall. -

    - He is dressed in a white jumpsuit that bare the markings of a medical doctor and wears prescription glasses. His ID is not in place. -

    - He is unable to hide his nerves as his hands shake and orange tail flicks around restlessly. -

     

    - The sound of a door opening and closing is hear and what looks like a man steps into the small room. -

    - He wears a sharp suit that speaks NanoTransen all over it and face masked by void glasses and shadows. -

     

    The Vulpkanin jumps out of his chair and says : "D-Did you get it? I-I wasn't kidding when I said I need it." with a flare of desperation.

    The man in the suit speaks in a calm tone : "Now now, settle down. I got your favorite right here, Carp Classic."

    - The man reaches inside his coat packet and takes out a matchbook and a packet of cigarettes, waving it slightly in front of the Vulpkinan as if teasing. -

    - The man in the suit takes a seat in the only other chair before tossing the matchbook on the table, the Vulpkanin seems to calm down slightly before sitting back in his chair, keeping his eyes on the packet. -

    - After a few seconds the man unwraps and opens the packet, handing out a cigarette. -

    - The Vulpkanin hungrily takes it and deftly lights it with a match. -

    There is a long inhale and exhale before the Vulpkanin speaks : " Ahh...I really really needed that....I lost count how long I've been without one."

     

    A slight chuckle can be heard from the man in the suit : "Yes, Mr. Bon, our records show you have quite a history with addictions, among other things."

     

    Mr.Bon pauses slightly before speaking, seemingly to just enjoy the smoke: "...yeah...just call me Von. And please don't mention the incidents with the alcohol." he says before turning his eyes to the wall.

    Man : "Then lets talk about something else. Like, for instance, your brother."

    Von Bon takes the cigarette butt out of his mouth and flicks it towards the corner.

    Von : "I'm going to need another."

     

    The man digs into his suit pocket to take out the packet and then hands over another cigarette to Von before he putting it away.

    Doesn't take more than a split second for a brief spark to appear and it is lit.

    Von proceeds to lean back on his chair and says : "Yeah...about my brother...the only reason I'm alive or not in prison now is because he was found. Right? Got his side of the story and all that?"

    The man shifts his shoulders a bit : "Yes. We found him exactly where you told us he was. Where you were told he would be. It didn't take much to get him to talk either."

     

    Von Bon : "HA! I know exactly what you guys did to get him to say or do anything and it was probably the same way they grabbed him too." *in a mocking tone* "Gotta have dat space-dank, yo!"

    - The Vulpkanin looks annoyed at this prospect and starts rubbing his forehead. -

     

    - There is a minute long pause before someone speaks again. -

     

    Von Bon : "Look...I already explained everything I know and all I done. I even gave you my PDA I had that shif-"

    Man : "And it was heavily modified. The kind syndicate operative use to carry out their missions."

    Von Bon : "And just by looking at it you can tell I never even changed the frequency or teleported in anything."

    Von gets out the chair, a flash of frustration on his face as he nearly yells : "I'm not a traitor. Look at my records! I've done my fair share of being a loyal officer. Hell, I have even been acting Head of Security, twice!".

     

    The man remains seated and doesn't flinch to Von's outburst : "Mr.Bon, I advise you to sit down and remain calm."

    - There is a slight hesitation before Von takes his place back on the chair. -

    Man : "As of this moment, no one is labeling you a traitor. And once again I have to say we have already looked through your records."

    Man : "We also know you've jumped across multiple job positions after you were honorbly discharged from security after that incident with the hulk."

     

    - At the moment the man said the word HULK, Von Bon winces as he quickly moves his hand near his heart, grasping firmly. -

     

    Von Bon : "I-I...they said to take things easy after the surgery...and to stay away from engineering or science...if an EMP were to hit me..."

     

    - A moment of silence passes as Von Bon rests his head on the table. -

     

    The man seems to adjust his red tie before saying : "Lets get straight to business, we've wasted enough time as it is. This time on the record."

    - Von Bon remains slumped on the table as the man spoke -

    Man : "At what point did you notice your brother was missing?"

    Von : "When he wasn't answering calls, messages, and wasn't with his friends."

    Von : "Soon as I opened the door I saw the large package and...inside were pictures...of my brother..."

    - Von starts to look really uncomfortable, obviously not wanting to continue. -

    Man : "You don't need to go into details. We...saw everything when we inspected your place. Please fast forward to when you arrived at the station."

    Von : "R-right. Well I had gotten to medbay and went about as normal, preparing everything, grabbing medical equipment and mentally preparing myself for whatever it was I had to do."

    Von : "I was told to not open my backpack until after I had read the instructions on my PDA."

    Von : "I was so worried about what I might had to do to see my brother again..."

     

    - There is a moment of Silence as Von Bon sits up. -

     

    Von : "Don't get me wrong, I'm no pacifist, as my time in security shows, but that doesn't mean I like to hurt people."

    Man : "Then why did you join security? It is inevitable that you would hurt someone."

    Von : "Well...I always wanted to help people. I grew up helping the family as much as I could or what friends I had."

    Von : "I figured...hey...maybe I could be that guy that stood between death and someone's life. Thinking I might make a difference and improve community. One less criminal at a time....that sort of mentality. "

     

    - Von's shoulders start to slump before continuing -

     

    Von : "But I was younger and that sort of mentality was only a measure of prevention rather than one of fixing."

    Von : "before the...incident...I was already having doubts about working in security....it's hard to carry out orders that...just freeze your own concept of morality."

    Man : "Are you referring to that time you were given the order to personally cremate the vampire, the one they nicknamed 'bloodless'?"

    - At this point Von Bon starts to cross his arms to hold onto them. -

    Von : "Yeah...while begging...set on fire the instant we set foot in the church...I don't want to talk about it anymore. You've obviously seen and heard the whole ordeal."

     

    Man : "Yes. Excuse me for derailing. You were worried about your orders."

    Von : "hey, can I get another smoke?"

    Man : "After you finish smiling for the camera."

     

    - a noisy groan is heard from Von Bon -

     

    Von : "Fine. So, yeah, I was worried about what my orders were and was immediately relieved that my assignment turned out to be simply passing notes with someone and trade it for my brother. No murder or-"

    - The man raises his arm and slams it onto the table. -

    Man : "The syndicate is not some note-passing childs play! Those were sensitive and important documents you gave away! Who knows what they could have contained. Possibly information that could shut them down or damage us further."

    Man : "As a former officer, you should have realised that!"

     

    - Von Bon looks to have been taken aback by the out lash, almost about to fall off his chair. -

     

    Von : "H-hey man calm down. Its not like I chose any of that." he says as he regains composure.

    Von : "Blood was on the line and, at least directly, no one was going to get hurt. If I didn't do what they asked of me then either me or him would be dead. Or both."

     

    - There is a minute of audio silence -

     

    Von : "Anyway I memorized our seemingly random code words and phrases and looked up who I was having to give and get the documents from."

    Von : "It turned out to be virologist right there in the medical wing. Now that I think of it, it seems almost too perfect with how everything went."

    Von : "Almost as if the Syndicate had a position in higher commands and placed-"

     

    - Immediately the man in the suit stands up and positions himself in front of the camera, using his finger to draw a line across his neck -

    - Audio Input is turned off -

     

    - The Man is next to Von Bon and seems to have aggressively grabbed him by the shoulders, nearly shaking him. -

    - They have what looks like a heated debate while Von Bon face expresses a mix of frustration and confusion. -

    - Soon the man lets go of Von Bon to deliver a powerful slap across the face, leaving him dazed, shocked, and his glasses crooked. -

    - Before each sit back in their seats, the man steps in front of the camera again and performs a hand signal. -

    - Audio Input is turned back on. -

     

    Man : "Continue. Now! And no last names."

    - It takes a moment for Von Bon to regain what composure he had left, adjusting his glasses and settling on crossing his arms while looking towards the wall again, head held down. -

     

    Von : "Yes sir. I contacted Nova. We exchanged code words. We meet in her lab and go to a nearby private room. We exchange the papers and depart. After that we tried to maintain no eye contact.

    Von : "That is when the announcement came in. There were currently no active engineers. Planned or not, the singularity was out and in stage 1."

    Von : "Shuttle was called. I was thanking the stars that this was going to be over quickly and I can get my brother back."

    Von : " I start going around collecting as much medical supplies as I could stuff into my bag to bring onto the shuttle."

    Von : "Was grabbing some splints when I realized that ...that THING-"

    Man : "*AHEM*"

    - Von Bon puts a hand to the cheek that had been hit. -

    Von : "the...VOX...he had been following me after I had left virology though I did not know why until later. He was going to kill me and...impersonate me."

    Von : "That is when he...attacked another medical staff. Sliced him up with his....arm. And then he started coming after me."

    Von : "I...ran. I just stood there and watched as another doctor gets cut nearly in half and instead of helping him...I just ran..."

    Von : "Usually my training would kick in but...I could only think of living to save my brother...I had to leave the man to die."

     

    - Von Bon starts to mask his eyes for a moment with his hands before continuing -

     

    Von : "After I lost the Vox , I ended up in the hallway and the Head of Personnel was there. I quickly warned him of the vox in medical and all security officers I saw on my way."

    Von : "I don't know what happened to the Vox but I never saw him again and kept myself busy from the thought by hanging out and healing the security staff."

    Von : "After that...well...here I am...can I have the cigarette now?"

     

    - Before Von Bon could take his eyes off the wall and look at the man sitting in front of him, the man seems to half-fold his arm and pull pack quickly with a flick of his wrist, producing a cigarette and offering it -

    Man : "Last one before we leave."

    - Von Bon accepts the cigarette and instinctively lights it up with another match -

    Von : "Leave...for home?" he asks in a uncertain tone.

    Man : "Yes, home. As I said, no one labeling you as a traitor for your actions. In fact, you had inadvertently helped us greatly."

     

    Von : "How so?" Von Bon says as he stands up from the chair followed by the man.

    Man : "The Vox was indeed captured, dealt with in the appropriate manner, all thanks to you . Had he killed and impersonated you then it would be working for the syndicate by now and be extremely dangerous."

    - The Man walks over to Von Bon. -

    - Von Bons' eyes start to wander about the room, before they settle into a stare in the wall directly in front of him. -

    Man : "I need you to sit down now, before we leave." he says as he slowly lowers and guide Von Bon back in his seat, without resistance.

    - Von Bon raises a shaking hand and pulls out the cigarette and shifts his stare at it. -

    Von Bon : "N-not the s-same taste..."

    Man : "Try and aim for the table." he says as he removes Von Bon's glasses.

    Von Bon : "...s-shit..." is all he can manage to say before face planting on the table.

     

    - The man moves towards the camera and crosses his arm in the shape of an X -

    - Video and Audio stop. End of Recording -

     

     

  2.  

    This will be a thread where I post the stories round the activities of my character, either daily or every other day.

    I'm hoping to also turn this character into something more than "that guy over there", eventually filling in a character sheet soon.

    There's always a story somewhere when I play and I hate to forget them or not share them.

     

    I'll try and write this in a serious format but feel free to pick out any of my screw ups.

    I am not an author or a great writer but I have things in my head and events that I want to share.

    So feedback would be most appreciated.

     

    I plan on having three separate types of stories:

     

    • One done in a journal style : Basically highlights and memorable shifts of the non-horrible-death-type. Canon? That's a better word.

    • One done in a different perspective : Likely how an NT Rep/Agent views it or just 'recordings' or aftermaths of an event.

    And another that is I guess shifts that ultimately had "bad" endings. the character ending type. I don't plan on focusing on those types but I'm not going to let a good story go to waste if it happens.

     

     

    Now with a Character Sheet : viewtopic.php?f=32&t=6634

     

    (insert organized future story post links here)

     

  3.  

    Wait, were you the NT Rep that I had treated before all that mess? All I can remember after getting drunk was the brutal beatings and all that happened afterwords. I didn't even notice it was done by an NT. I had assumed it was the HoS and someone else that was basically doing this to me :

     

    full.gif

    *give one of those guys a medical lab coat to complete the image*

     

    Yeah sure you goofed then as an NT Rep but because I was basically picturing ^that^ in my head that I smiled a bit over the scene and moment.

    I guess what I am saying is that it was at the right amount of over the top to not frustrate me? Sounds about right.

     

  4. lol It was no biggie. Even though I had arrived maybe not 5 minutes in but it would have been my word against a CMO. I knew I was a goner that round as I drank a ton of drinks and didn't even know what was going on. Next thing I know the CMO is dragging me into Maint and starts beating me up and stuffing me with drugs.

  5.  

    I was the warden that shift. So I was pretty much the only one in security and I got paranoid pretty damn quickly when random people were just randomly entering and leaving the lobby.

    I couldn't be much help just viewing cameras but I was able to help relay your positions with the portable crew monitor...until comms went down.

     

  6.  

    I've plays SS13 before and usually only on Paradise Station months ago.

    Recently I've gotten hooked into the game once more because of course I get the itch to play again.

     

    After several weeks of near non-stop playing ( its sucking my soul), and seeing my character actually drawn

    by PhantasmicDream ( brief cameo with Calico, neat story behind that shift) convinced me its about time to join the community.

     

    I'm hoping to get to know people more and to post some good stories about my character, Von Bon, and the crazy space adventures he finds himself in.
