((Sorry I've been inactive, I've been a little sick recently and therefore was unable to post my first post. Would anyone be kind enough to summarise what has happened so far, in order to save me like 7 pages of reading? Also, it'd be nice if you, Distruct, could give me an idea as to how I could begin now that I am starting late))
((What FireHazard said is right minus a few details, but the most important thing you need to know is that we're in the "Shovel Knight" universe.))
X became increasingly suspicious of Mr.Hat as he left vague clues or what seemed like a threat. Taking note of his surroundings X shook it off lightly and turned back to his allies right as the merchant left the house. "I'll stay on watch for the night. I don't need sleep the same way you humans do." X said as he began to peer around various corners around the hammocks. "I'll be sure to wake you guys if I see anything." X replied, reassuring himself that the area seemed clear. But Mr.Hat's mention of a 'most dangerous person' still left X uneasy.
As Mr.Hat offered the tea and the seats X respectfully declined. "No, thanks." While X could drink the tea, it would just sit in his body until it evaporated nothing useful would come of it, and the seats would probably break under his weight. Mr.Hat began to talk again, this time he explained that he had overheard them, X felt slightly guilty at this. The merchant then began to talk about his very personality being changed by his choice of accessory, he later demonstrated by placing another hat on his head, his accent changed but his personality seemed to be the same. But before the demonstration he had moved on into explaining his personal reasons for wanting to join. X listened, while he still didn't trust the irregular merchant, X did understand the need to want to do more. "We don't have actual proof that anything you're saying is true. But we are willing to trust you, at least for a little while."
X followed Mr.Hat's lead into his home, upon entering the oil lanterns simultaneously lit up. That doesn't seem right, aren't they just regular oil lamps? X thought as he continued to observe the peculiar man and his abode. After a moment the man finally divulged his 'depends', he wanted to join them, apparently he was desperate to see some action. After hearing his demand Meta turned towards the group and asked if they thought he was trust worthy. X moved closer to Meta and began to whisper. "I think he's insane, he might try to lead us into a trap. But he's our only lead to anywhere, so for now, yes."
X cautiously entered the village after Meta, the wooden gates could easily be jumped over, but the door was far more simple. Judging by the oil lanterns and the wooden structures X guessed that whatever Earth they were on was thousands of years behind his own universe. Aside from that X was more or less pleasantly surprised at how peaceful and simple the village was, it was far different compared to the urban mega cities he had lived in for countless years. As soon as the group passed through the entrance a voice called out to the group.
"Hello there young adventurers!"
X's auditory sensors immediately pointed him to a peculiar looking human on a rooftop, the man gave a slight retort and slowly floated down. Brewery, bard, did he just call us drunk? X pushed his thoughts back as the man spoke up again, this time complimenting hats and masks and asking to know more about them as he led them to his house. X was wary of following the man to his house, but decided to follow anyways. No matter what this Earth has to throw at us I'm sure we can take it. Taking a moment to realize that this Earth seemed to be more primitive X decided it was best to pick and choose is words, after all something like a spaceship might not even register as a word for Mr.Hat. "We sort of crash landed here, other than that we're just as clueless." X said, after picking out simple words.
((I agree, so.....I guess you could put down another post where we arrive at the village? I mean, I think we've spent a little to much time on the running portion of this rp.))
X smirked as Meta took off. "Oh I can go fast alright." Bending his knees again, this time X took up a sprinting form and took off behind Meta. Now in mid-sprint a burst of energy fired from X's feet, increasing his speed, leaving after images of himself in his wake. Now next to Meta X's speed slowly decreased, his mechanical body wouldn't run out of stamina allowing X to stay close by Meta as he speedily flew to the village. Settling for second place X began to take his gaze to the village ahead.
No hearts?...He probably means that in a metaphorical sense. Last time i checked humans need to have hearts. X thought, his thoughts were pushed aside as the pod's computerized voice chirped again.
"Entering atmosphere"
"Activating kinetic Shock absorbers online, proceeding to land".
As the pod finally touched ground X felt a familiar feeling as the pod shook slightly.
"Shock absorbers were successful, please exit the pod".
As the door shot out from it's hinges X gradually proceeded outside. Looking around him he saw that the pod had created a fairly small crater in it's landing, though that was to be expected. Still in the crater X bent his knees slightly and propelled himself upwards, X's short jump landed him just outside the crater, looking around he spotted Meta Knight flying out of his pod's crater as well. "Meta do you know where we are?" X asked, he wasn't expecting him to know but he had to make sure just in case.
Listening to Lana's tale X became more intrigued about love, and his group's various experiences. Crossing his arms in thought he began to ponder further on the emotion. X decided now would be the time to lay out a summary of his life.
"Love does sound dangerous, but I think I owe love for my existence. Not love in your situations, but more of a father, son relationship. About 100 years ago, a man named Dr. Thomas Light created me. The only thing I remember about him is that he created me, he was the first human I ever saw, and in those first moments I could tell he had dedicated his life to me. His voice was hoarse and weak, he told me that I my name was X, that my name mean't infinite potential. He also told me that it means uncertainty, and the fearful unknown. In his final moments he told me of his regrets, his hopes for humanity and robots to live in harmony, and his proudest moments; the creation his first sons, my predecessors, and finally my creation. It was years later I was awakened by a Dr. Cain, together we built the reploid race from my very own body.
At first everything went well, reploids and humans were living peacefully, but like humans there were some reploids who resented that peace. We called them Mavericks, at the time it was fitting, we thought they had been invaded by viruses or plagued by glitches. In the hopes of maintaining this peace the Maverick Hunters were made, this organization was made as a special peace keeping for not just reploids but for humans as well. This plan like all others started off good, it even prospered under the command of a reploid named Sigma. After years of success we or I began to think that peace would be restored, but that hope of mine changed when Sigma turned Maverick, he betrayed the hunters and turned several other good reploids to his side. After invading a missile base he launched a missile strike on Abel city, because of these events tensions between us reploids and humans have reached an all time high. There's no telling what's happening back home." X said, his voice switched to worry near the end as he thought about his home.
((Sorry that's just me being nit picky. Now that I think about it more, this is a sci fi roleplay so there's all sorts of reasons you could talk to our guys.))
((Ender all most of our character's are talking on a communicator they got so i'm not sure if you would be able to hear our guys while we're all up in the pods, but you know that. So..i'll just act accordingly i guess.))
X was going over various schematics attempting to find something useful, but the only things saved to the pod's hard drive were instructions on survival tents, first aid, and other tips that couldn't possibly help him. His internal radio chirped to life as Meta knight began to speak again, this time asking for opinion's on the Demi lord. "I agree we can't trust him completely, I want to, but he reminds me to much of someone from my home universe. We have to be careful from here on out, the Demi lord could still be plotting something, he grabbed everyone's equipment right? He might try to make copies of what makes everyone here special, then he might try to dispose of us." X said, his face furrowed slightly at his own theory, the amount of suspicion present in his own idea worried him.
X's face relaxed as Lana asked for everyone to speak more about their personal lives, she then commented on her injury, reminding X that she was injured. Searching through the pod's data banks again, specifically the schematics, he found that all the emergency craft carried a first aid package in the ceiling. Makes sense, these are meant for dire situations, when the mother-ship must be abandoned. Activating his internal radio X began to speak up again. "There's a first aid pack in my pod, check to see if your's has one. Other than that, I wasn't taught much about human physiology, sorry." X wanted to continue and talk about his life, but he hadn't met many humans before this, and consequently was somewhat eager to hear their stories.
