Canon is Clive Barker's Jericho

[reality_hacker]

Mundane, I know you are discouraged by the fact that you haven't seen anyone else from the squad but don't let that stop you.

Despite some apprehensions about putting my life in your hands I do find this increasingly more interesting than whatever awaited me leaving things as they were.

I will admit I want to see Lieutenant Black and the others again but I can't think of that right now.

These people from the RED and BLU organizations are interesting. Especially their team dynamics and how similar they are to Jericho. Granted unless we're taking alternate universes into account they are nearly all men.

POUNCE

[not_onyourside]

And what ees Jericho?

<3

[reality_hacker]

Jericho is a military squad within the U.S Chaplain corps. We take part in covert occult warfare.

[Spy may notice the fact that she was not at all nervous about being talked to by a strange masked man.]

[not_onyourside]

[You've lost him.]

Zhe what? And zhey do what?

Of course Spy would be the first one to pounce on the military woman with a big gun :P

[reality_hacker]

It is a United States military squad and we handle situations that are often called magic.

But of course!

[not_onyourside]

Magic. I see.

[He doesn't.]

And zhis ees similar to what we do? Zhere ees not much magic involved, mostly just technology.

[reality_hacker]

Similar in how the abilities and weaponry match. For instance Frank Delgado, a member of the team, uses a machine gun but also has flame-based skills.

[She decided not to mention his fire skills were due to a flame spirit, knowing that the magic part already had him confused.]

[not_onyourside]

Why would you need a machine gun and fire? Zhat seems razzer excessive non?

And you, what do you do?

[reality_hacker]

Given that we fight things that are not human I think it works well for him.

I am what they call a reality hacker.

[She decided to forgo any explanation that probably would of confused the man.]

Allow me demonstrate.

[Simone would type out something on the keypad on her arm, when she was done the only thing Spy would see is a blur. Well until Simone calls out from behind him.]

I am behind you sir.

[not_onyourside]

Not human? You fight animals? Monsters?

[He jumps, disappearing instantly into a red mist and backing away from the voice.]

Very clever.

[reality_hacker]

Monsters would be the more accurate word yes.

[Having him disappear like that surprised her a little.]

I won't go into the details but I temporarily slowed time around me.

[not_onyourside]

[He blinks and pops back into visibility, a few feet away.]

Very useful. I like eet.

[He grins.]

Eet ees een zhe suit oui?

[reality_hacker]

No actually, the suit allows me to control it with better accuracy but the effects come from very complicated mathematical equations only I can understand.

[not_onyourside]

I fail to see you you can alter time wez mazh, but eef you say so I will not question eet. Perhaps zhe laborer would understand.

Een any event, eet ees a neat trick. Devious. Underhanded.

I like eet.

[reality_hacker]

I suppose it could be seen that way.

People would say it is especially devious considering the other weapon I use other than my gun are grenades.

[not_onyourside]

So you can run up, drop grenades, and zhen disappear before zhey go off? Zhat ees razzer handy.

Tell me more.

[Spy is intrigued.]

[reality_hacker]

It has helped in some situations.

[She's not completely sure this will interest him but she goes on,]

I can also resupply my squad with ammunition to their respective weapons and increase their firepower temporarily.

If I took the time to look into it I could very likely make myself invisible like you did a moment ago.

[not_onyourside]

You are a walking dispenser. A walking dispenser zhat can stop time, drop grenades and increase damage. You are enteresting!

So you can do anyzzing you wish wez zhe right equation? I do not recall learning zhat een mazh class.

[reality_hacker]

[Well it wasn't the first time she was called interesting but it was a little rare that someone took interest in what she actually did.]

Yes though it requires a complex understanding of different subjects such as physics.

[not_onyourside]

Mmmm. Eef you can do all zhat why do you even need a team?

[reality_hacker]

Controlling forces like that is not very good for the mind. That is to say if I do it for too long without a break I start to lose my grip on reality.

And once again, we're not just facing humans.

[not_onyourside]

Ah. Quite zhe drawback. I am glad eet ees not zhe same for me.

As you said before, zhough I have yet to encounter any monster-type creatures een zhis place.

[reality_hacker]

It's better that you don't unless they are friendly creatures. They can be very powerful and my mundane says that you don't use any body armor when you're on duty.

[sentryslinger]

Now don't you let your mundane give up just because you're the only one from your team out here. Somebody's got to hold down the fort. It might as well be you.

[reality_hacker]

You are right, and I don't think he's going to give up on me.

He is just disappointed that no one else thought to bring us here.

[sentryslinger]

Mundanes are funny like that, sometimes. Ya might see a whole bunch different people around here, or a talkin' animal or two, or even another one of you. It don't make a lick of sense, but there ain't much changin' it. Just got to make the best of it.
