"Nice place." Marker placed the log on the table of the room, and uncloaked.
"Homey." Marker chuckled lightly, leaving the room and going into the main armory, closing the door behind him

As he stepped out of the room, he heard someone unlocking the front door Cylus' voice soon became audible as he grumbled [i]"Damn bakery... I'm totally worthy of the damn muffins. I was last time!"[/i] Looking up, Cylus didn't realize that Marker had been in the room. "Uh..." he said awkwardly. "I see you've found my place." Cylus continued, scratching hmthr back of his head. He seemed to be covered in what appeared to be bits of cake and muffins.
-
"Yeah. I was returning your log, which you left on the bench in the street." Marker said calmly, glancing inside of the glass cabinets "Nice place by the way. Good collection."
-
"Ah, thank you thank you." Cylus said, standing up straight. He brushed more crumbs off of his jacket. "So you're not gonna ask?" he asks, raising an eyebrow.
-
"Ask? What is there to ask about?" Marker said, glancing over at Cylus
-
"Well for starters, I'm covered in some very delicious pastries." Cylus says with a chuckle, eating a chunk of cake off of his shoulder. "And second, about this whole "business" I'm running here."
-
"I can guess the cake bit. You were at a bakery, maybe provoked the owner so they threw that at you." Marker said, looking at the cake "And as for your "business" It's not of my own business what you do in your free time, as long as it doesn't interfere with the Militia. "
-
"Ha, you kind of got the first one right... Except the owner threw [i]me[/i] at the cake. Crazy orc guy. Says you have to defeat him in combat every time you wish to eat." Cylus says. "As for the armory, I can understand what you're saying. Business is business. I've learned from experience that it doesn't always mix well with our personal lives."
-
"It's certainly a nice collection of weaponry though. Where'd you get the guns? I can hook you up a with a shipment of Militia Arms. They're rare, since we don't sell them off."
-
Cylus smiles. "That would certainly be great. As for my stuff here, I had a friend ship what was left of my collection on earth. Inter-dimensional portal or something he said. I chose not to confuse myself with the details."
-
"Ha. Yeah, I'll just write it off. We got one less shipment than we usually do. Or something of the sorts. Hopefully this doesn't make too big a scandal, after all I'm just providing for a fellow member of the Militia." Marker walked forward, patting Cylus on the back "Just make sure they're being sold to the right people."
-
"You won't have to worry about that..." Cylus says. "Between you and me, I always keep the best things for myself. Regardless, I'm always careful with my customers."
-
"Excellent! You'll have the shipment by the end of the week if you're lucky. Don't know when the next one is scheduled." Marker said, looking towards the exit "Now. Sell safe. Let me know if you need security, or anything of the sorts."
-
"I'll make sure to look out for it." Cylus says politely. "And thanks again, it would have been hell looking for that log in this city."
-
"Hey, it's not a problem. After all, what are friends for?" Marker said with a light chuckle. "Oh, and by the way, you want an update on the arc reactor?"
-
"Oh yes please, I haven't heard from Carly in a while. How's the project coming along?"
-
"Both Carly and Vaughn have become a little occupied with the arc, but progress Is coming along nicely. We've figured out a way to drain only certain amounts of power from the arc, and transfer it to a Titan or ship. So we might not need those Titan batteries anymore! This is a huge step, considering how those Titan batteries could be pulled out in battle."
-
"Versatility. I like it!" Cylus says with a smile lighting up his face.
-
"Though, we'll need to expand on our Titan Manufacturing to incorporate the new generation. So you might see some action soon. Might even be the first pilot of the New Generation Titan." Marker said with an air of happiness, clearly glad of the improvements
-
Sounding like a child, Cylus looks up in thought. "Oh boy, I like the sound of [i]that![/i]"
-
"Maybe. You'll have competition. Myself." Marker chuckled, patting Cylus' shoulder [spoiler]Will there be a chapter 3 of Cylus' story? Or can I make the next post? [/spoiler]
-
"Competition? I'll believe it when I see it."Cylus jokes [spoiler]There will be future entries, but not all of them will be open posts. Only about 2 or 3 more tops.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]SO, will you be taking the next post? Or may I? [/spoiler] "Confident. For someone that doesn't know a thing about piloting, you sound like trouble." Marker laughed again, shaking his head slightly
-
"All fun and games now, but you'll see!" [spoiler]My next post will be a follow up entry and it won't be an open response, so you can go ahead and make yours. In still waiting on a few other things[/spoiler]
-
"Uh huh, I'm sure. We'll do some training for you before we take any steps towards putting you in action though. So let me know whenever you're ready to start with it." [spoiler]Got ya, thanks [/spoiler]
-
"Well I've always got time on my hands, so just give me a call or swing by. You know the place now, and you're welcome at anytime." Cylus motions to the awning outside. "You can just let yourself of you need."
