Listen kid, it's not a civil war if he doesn't have Blobs. And the only way it can end is with some dead Blobs. I can't do that. But, I might be able to consider it if you get me something, a drink. Family recipe that was never found. Makes another drink but the side effect is uh... it's really strong and never random. Always one effect.
English
-
"Fair point. Anyway, do you have any idea, even so much as a vague memory, where I could find the recipe?"
-
Yeah. The bar here. The owner has it somewhere and won't say where. He stole it from me.
-
"Ah. In that case, I'll get it from him politely. And if he refuses, I'll ask... politely." With the final word, JJ motions to his sword. "Don't worry, no one's gonna die. Unless they try to kill me. I generally don't like to kill, unless provoked. I'll be back with that recipe." And with that, JJ walked away from Boozer's house, headed to the bar he was told to seek out. When he eventually found it, he paused out front, taking in the front entrance.
-
[b]not many people are there, just the bartender and a few people drinking, you see an upstairs, a locked door near the bottom of the steps going up, and a door behind the counter near the bartender[/b]
-
JJ heads over to the bartender, and takes a seat in front of him. "Do you brew your drinks in-house, or do you get them shipped in?" As he speaks, JJ looks the bartender directly in the eye, and puts on a friendly smile.
-
A little bit of both
-
"I see... Well, I'm kind of an enthusiast, and I want to start my own bar up some day. I planned to brew most, if not all of my drinks in-house. Do you mind letting me have a sneak peek at the setup you, have? Maybe I could take some notes?"
-
You could find the stuff on YouTube.

I never get to see every bit of their setup though, most of the people filming are terrible, and the best don't just throw their setup out onto the Internet. Sure, they may start with something like that, but every little adjustment is what makes the brew even better. And from the people in town, I hear that this place makes the best drink they've ever tasted. I wanna know what makes all the magic happen."
-
Hmm... don't tell the boss. K? [b]he walks to the door in front of the stairs leading up, and unlocks it[/b] [b]behind it is stairs leading to a basement, he motions you to enter[/b]
-
JJ follows him, letting him take the lead as they descend. "Thanks, man. I appreciate this."
-
No proble- [b]he's interrupted by a gunshot followed by a bullet to the head[/b] [b]his body is pushed to wall from the bullet then it falls over and rolls down the stairs[/b] [b]you see 2 men down there, each with pistols aimed at you[/b] Man 1- Who are you? Man 2- Why shouldn't we kill you?
-
JJ throws his hands up, but he's still smiling. He's obviously not intimidated by these two. "My name isn't important. And why I'm here is to find something that was stolen from and friend of mine. And I kind of need that someone to help me keep more sentient beings from dying." JJ begins to look at his surroundings, gathering a feel for the area he's about to fight in. "You didn't have to kill him, you know."
-
[b]it's dark and wooden[/b] [b]you see many barrels of beer stacked up[/b] Man 1- Yeah, we did have to kill him. And we're gonna kill you too. Man 2- Wait wait wait. You think we stole something?
-
"Either you, or your boss. A specific recipe for a brew." JJ then looks to the first thug with the gun. "Also, put that gun down before you hurt yourself. You think you're hot shit, but I've seen more screwed up things than you or your children will ever see. I just want that recipe, and I'll be on my way..." JJ's smile immediately drops into a scowl, and he loses any friendliness whatsoever. "But if you try to kill me, I'll live, and cut off both of your arms. Your friend'll be fine, unless he tries to avenge you or stop me. You know that Dojo not too far from here, with all the crazy bastards? I'm one of them. So, what'll it be? Can we reason like normal human beings, or will there be bloodshed?"
-
[b]he puts his gun up[/b] Man 1- We didn't steal anything.
-
"Then you can help me find the recipe, and we can each be on our way. I won't come back and kill you, and you won't have to deal with that. Sound good?" JJ watches his hands, looking for any sort of strain on his arms indicating a trigger pull. If he sees anything, he's prepared to duck, and roll to the right simultaneously in order to not get killed by the bullet. He may take some damage, but damage is better than death.
-
Man 2- Who do you think you are?
-
JJ's smile returns, and he chuckles a little bit. "I'm the guy who's drowned in tar, been impaled by at least fifty different swords at once, shot, mauled, poisoned, and mind-controlled, and still kicking. I wish I could make all that up. Also, if you'll let me leave and come back, I can show you my suit of mechanized armor that has a giant -blam!-ing gun strapped to the arm." Throughout that entire speech, and even at this very moment, JJ's eyes never left the man's arm. However, he didn't want to risk his current life any longer. He rolls to the side, taking cover behind some barrels. He unsheathes his sword and shield, then moves along the barrels.
-
[b]they both start shooting the barrels and beer starts flying everywhere[/b]
-
About two barrels before the end, JJ pops up from behind the barrels, with his shield up. He charges the first thug as fast as he can, bashing his gun in an attempt to disarm him. He then does a short spin, and inaccurately throws his sword at the second thug. He just needs a moment of respite while fighting the first.
-
[b]it misses but hits a barrel behind the 2nd thug and makes beer shoot out and hit him in the head, causing him to fall over[/b] [b]the 1st thug dropped his gun when hit[/b]
-
Edited by jj1042: 10/27/2016 11:23:28 PMNow that the thug had dropped his gun, JJ had further closed the distance. He punched with his empty hand, landing a blow in his opponent's stomach. While he's stunned, JJ grabs one of his special arrows from his quiver. He then jams it into the thug's shoulder, and then he tries to make it to cover before the second regains his bearings. The arrow causes the thug to scream, and struggle to stay upright.
-
[b]the 1st thug grabs his gun and aims with one hand while holding his shoulder with the other [/b] [b]he starts trying to shoot you as the 2nd thug gets up[/b]
-
JJ dives behind cover, with a bullet grazing his sword arm. Merely a flesh wound, but it still hurts. He then begins to call out to the thugs as he moves around, taunting them. "Nice shot! Not gonna last for long though. That type of arrow was given to me by an old friend. In about thirty seconds, you're gonna start tripping balls and fall into a nightmare. Good luck." He then moves through an opening between sets of cover, and is now closer to the uninjured thug.
