New maiya, One green nation, and Catistania

Here it is.

Artemis slid stealthily down the rooftop towards the guard tower her squad following behind her tonight it consisted of herself the assassin, her seconder John curt the assault, carrying heavy armor and an AAI CAWS (Close Assault Weapon System) Prototype Assault Shotgun. Tyler smoke as the marksman, carrying a Draganov sniper rifle and a Glock 30-SF. Sarah orlands as the specialist, carrying only traps and a Glock 43.
Their mission was to infiltrate the government and kill the president's wife and children.
“Duck,” she whispered as a searchlight started moving towards them. Artemis marveled at the speed of which they obeyed her without question. The searchlight roved over where they were hidden, behind the roof of a civilian building. Suddenly the whine of a helicopter engine broke through the night silence the president’s wife and children were about to board the helicopter and leave for their mansion, In the mountains. Tyler smoke readied the sniper as did Artemis a door in the steel complex slid open and an obese lady and two children walked out across the tarmac. Artemis aimed then fired twice sending the man’s wife down to the ground, the other shot sent one of the children flying across the tarmac he was short no more than 5 years old. A loud bang from beside her came accompanied by a scream as the other child, a girl was shot in the arm. Tyler cursed. Blood splattered everywhere. But as he was about to take another shot alarm started wailing through the compound and guards began rushing out of buildings, shooting at anything that moved. “Let’s get out of here,” John said. Sarah agreed quietly then said louder,” I will stay behind and lay down some traps and maybe throw some grenades.”

So Artemis, John, and Tyler left stealthily, creeping through the dark streets until they reached the entrance to D.E.M.O.N, H.Q an inconspicuous sewer grate in an abandoned school. The first few turns were normal sewers until the changed into something new a grey hallway with many labs and other rooms leading off of it. They kept walking until they reached the command room at the end of the grey hall. Artemis pushed the heavy steel door open into a room full of the best computers money can buy and a huge plasma screen. She sat at the computer directly controlling the plasma screen, she pulled up a mission file and began typing.
She wrote all about the mission, she wrote about the assassination, and about the girl surviving. And finally, she sent the file through to the database. The device pinged to say the file had arrived in the database.

Adding to past responses here works well. If you want to go back and fix the BBCode, that would not be godmodding at all. You could also fix the BBCode in the dispatch and call that version canon, while the original stays on the rmb as an assurance that you haven't godmodded (I'm doing something along those lines to fix my chronology).
Yeah, τίποτα is nothing. The reference is Waiting for Godot's Act I when Vladmir says "nothing to be done." I also borrowed Beckett's style for the last post: many, many stage directions.

Joanna: {to Darius} Been here for a day, yes, but trained for a lifetime to be here
--------------------------------
Lisa to Michael: Are you ready to do this handling of panic and disorientation.
Michael: {glances toward Joanna at the edge of the pool, then back to Lisa}: As long as Joanna's here, I'm ready. {After the waves are turned off, he plunges underwater and does not surface until he is facing Joanna and the machine. He only hears}
Lisa: get this done.
Michael: I'm enjoying this. {He chuckles as he straps himself in beside her}
Joanna: {to herself} One rescue is enough for a day...
--------------------------------
{Carolina changes back to dry clothes and comes out of the women's changing room to hear}
Apoya: Huh. OK, who's doing dinner?
Darius: Hey, crazy idea but why don't we all do dinner? After all, it's New Years' Eve!
Carolina: We think alike. What's the idiom for "Great minds think alike"? We should all do dinner.
Joanna: {breaks her intense concentration and looks at Carolina} What're you saying?
Carolina: {in a monotone} Look at my watch. {Her excitement is betrayed only by a twinkle in her eyes} Today is New Years Eve. We're all making dinner for each other.
Joanna: {to Carolina} A great idea indeed. {looks at the water} Shouldn't they be up by now?
Michael: {surfaces just as Joanna says "now" and reads her facial expression} You were talking about me?
Joanna: We were thinking of having a New Years Eve potluck and thought you could contribute.
Michael: Sounds like a plan.

I just had to search up what "potluck" means since I'm not North American, I'm British, so if you can try to use international vocab, please do since that means I can understand it better (thanks!). When I said godmod, I meant change things in the post that dealt with the main part of the huddle since Darius needed to reply to what Joanna said, but I did such a long post that I couldn't pretend that Darius only replied to Joanna's "Might?", if that makes sense (which it probably doesn't, actually). Anyway, good suggestion, I'm going to go change it in the dispatch now.
Edit: Grammar, New Maiya, Grammar! What did you learn about subordinate clauses, eh?

I have a uniqueish Idea.

I'm using a mobile app to make a decent looking war simulation. But this one is interactive. Meaning you can send in support for a side, add a side, or just invade for occupation and then I will edit it into the video.

Lol, I keep telling people that there's no such thing as "unique-ish" or "quite unique" or "very unique" because unique means that there's only one of it, so it doesn't make sense to add adverbs like "very" to it. Still, I'll let you off here (you should use "special" instead of "unique"). I am really picky on grammar, aren't I? Sorry, it's my nature.

#1 best RMB post of all time.

I got diagnosed with temporary Orthostatic Hypotension.

Meaning my blood pressure is low whenever I stand up from a sitting or sleeping position. Gravity pulls down all my blood to my legs and deprives my brain a bit. My heart takes around a few minutes to realise that my brain isn't getting as much blood so it starts to increase the heart rate.

Whenever I stand up, I get very dizzy. I may even faint.
Doc said this should last for 1-2 weeks.

He said this was probably due to my sleeping patterns and lack of water consumption.

Wish me luck my dudes.

So hang them upside down and start sawing away!

Personally, I liked the breaking wheel better.

I've had this problem too, though the doctor didn't mention sleep.

No luck needed, long as you drink some type of water you'll be fine. Hecc, I saw black spots two days ago when I was shooting hoops. Luckily I had two water bottles with me

Oldie. Known as CCI to some. Came back a while ago (before you but after me) to RP but didn't ever really get into it, so he just RMBed. Still visits every once in a while.

SENNHEISER UNION INTERNATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE 224, FOREDIR CITY, The sennheiser union - NIGHT

| As nightfall began to spread over FOREDIR CITY, life began to become vibrant as normal citizens rushed home from work. OSSIAN KARI is not one of those citizens, however. OSSIAN works for the SUIC offices, and was scheduled to work the nightshift. Hundreds if not thousands of messages went through the SUIC every day, so communications officers like himself are forced to work overnight to answer and wire messages back and forth. |

| OSSIAN yawned in boredom quietly to himself and looked to his dual monitor office space. One monitor was filled with e-mails and e-telegrams, all waiting to be either wired or responded too. The secondary monitor displayed a chat room with the executive officer of the shift. OSSIAN watched the main display, as nothing new popped up- |

    Ding!

    New Mail (1) Recieved

| -until then. OSSIAN groaned as he leaned forward, double clicking the new message. The message appeared and he read it in full. |

    The PQ has finished her previous business and would like to meet with you soon. When and where would you like to meet?

    | OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer | Evrigenis? What the hell is that?

| Though this question ran in his head for quite some time, he brushed it off and moved the cursor to the chat room and typed. |

    Ossian Kari; CO-82

    The nation of Evrigenis requests a meeting with the SU. They ask when and where the meeting will be held.

    "Hierarch Klaus Inha will be present to meet with your delegation. The meeting will be held at the Käila Delegations Office in the Senateer City-state. You may choose a time which fits you, however please notify us of your departure from Evrigenis."

| OSSIA drug the cursor across the text and copied it. He pulled the cursor over to the maim screen and pasted it into the textbox. He then added a few tweaks here and there, the he read over it. |

| OSSIAN stared at the text, knowing well enough something was missing. His fingers ran across the low profile keyboard once again. |

    | OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer | There we go.

| He clicked the 'SEND' button below the textbox, and the response was sent back to Evrigenis, wherever that was. OSSIAN leaned back in his chair to see his friend, TOIVA, come down the hallway towards the stairs. |

    | OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer | "Where the hell do you think you're going?"

    | TOIVA NISKANEN, Communications Officer | "Home, that's where. If you have a problem with it, you can shove it up your-"

    | OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer | "Okay, okay. Calm down there, man."

| They both exchange a laugh. |

    | OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer | "Hey, before you leave, can you get me a coffee? Haven't slept well before I came."

    | TOIVA NISKANEN, Communications Officer | "You sly bastard."

| They exchange laughs again and TOIVA walks down the hall to the coffee machine. |

    | TOIVA NISKANEN, Communications Officer | "Just for that I'll put sugar and creamer in it."

    | OSSIAN KARI, Communications Officer | "If you do, I'll slaughter you for it!"

    | TOIVA NISKANEN, Communications Officer | "Love you too, mate!"

| TOIVA turns the corner, leaving OSSIAN chuckling. He leans back in his chair and closes his eyes. And to think he'll get off at three in the morning, with a day off waiting for him as a reward. |

OOC: Sorry the post was late. I was busy, and I think Ancob logged off for today.

OOC: You now have the gold medal for patience about receiving a response for an ongoing RP with me (Golbad, at six days, has silver). I fixed the timeline, so future posts should not take as long.

At 10:25 PM Western Solitan Standard Time, Glaucon saw the response:

He strode briskly through the marble hallways to the Philosopher Queen's office. He arrived, slightly winded, and told her of the email with an inkling of a smile in his eyes. After finishing, he commented, "Our former hosts host again."
The Philosopher Queen Gina Dikaisou replied, "Yes, one success is behind us. Now we shall look forward." Tell them that we depart this evening and will plan to meet at 12:45 PM local time.

Glaucon followed her instructions and sends the following to the Communications Office:

We appreciate your flexibility and shall have the pleasure of meeting Hierarch Klaus Inha at 12:45 PM local time. We depart this evening.

Glaucon

After Glaucon has hit "send," the driver Demetrius knocks on the door. "At your summons, my Queen." He leads them out of the capitol building and into the snowy mountain air. The PQ and Glaucon enter the vehicle in silence. Adeimantus has already placed their suitcases in the trunk and looks expectantly at the pair. Adeimantus sits in the left side of the back seat, Glaucon in the back-right, and the PQ on the front-right. Demetrius takes the wheel on the front-left. The four of them go slowly down the mountainside before arriving at Kallipolis International airport.

A sleek Sulia-powered jet taxiies in front of the vehicle. It shines under the moonlight. The PQ, Adeimantus, and Glaucon each take their own luggage and board. Demetrius watches the flight take off before checking his watch: 11:42 PM. He is relieved that the vehicle is autonomous; he might otherwise fall asleep at the wheel. It was a good time, for all of them, to go to sleep.

On the flight, the PQ yawns. After little difficulty, she is able to take a nap. However, her dream about a fire is soon interrupted by a thought. She wakes Adeimantus. And makes plans.
