[Dusty Crophopper]

((Your bio is accepted Carylanne Also, I'm going back on tour starting tomorrow, so posting will once again slow down for me until Sunday night when I get back.))

Dusty - Tags: Shadow, Shinn, Radar

Shinn mentioned he wasn't a fan, which caused Dusty to pause... WASN'T a fan? Then what was he even doing here? He then mentioned he was a Jolly Wrench so... here to visit? But the Jolly Wrenches were mostly fans of him thanks to his honorary status, so it was still a little puzzling... but maybe he was here to see Skipper. "Ah... well yes, I don't remember seeing you." Dusty confessed. "And yeah it's... it's rough..." He looked about him again, but felt that maybe... maybe he should say something... address the crowd. Shadow mentioned they had just chosen his area... but he knew it wouldn't have been an area to choose had he not been famous.

"I feel like... I feel like maybe... maybe I should address everyone... like I should say something... anything... to just... apologize and... help everyone feel... reassured." He said, blue eyes wandering over to the podium and vacant microphone. Shadow was talking to Streak now, so Dusty began rolling forward, heading towards the podium as if drawn to it. He hadn't been addressing anyone in particular there, but just had been thinking aloud.

Oskar - Tags: Rush

"So... no one outright who would hurt this Herr Crophopper that you know of. I see... the mystery only deepens then. This doesn't seem like a place to draw such a large attack." Oskar confessed, looking around him as he searched the area with his eyes. "So peaceful... even now, despite the carnage... it's... quiet. Bucolic really. I don't know why anyone would bring violence to this place. Say! I wanted to thank you for agreeing to fly with me today! Even if it ended in an unfortunate manner, we still exchanged some good stories. You must tell me though! I had heard of a Corsair living here by the name of Skipper Riley, it is true, ja? Tell me... what is he like? Does he... hate planes like myself?" Oskar asked hesitantly, looking uneasy as he said this and glancing down bashfully.

Blade and Dusty - Tags: Otter

"The idea that we all band together and do something about this!" Blade replied, turning back to Otter here. "What do you think? I mean I really like that you said we all might be here for a reason... and it could be just that!" He saw Dusty rolling out from the midst of a group of planes now, and he called over to him, whistling. "Champ! Over here! Want you to meet someone!"

"Huh?" Dusty asked, rolling in the direction of the two now. "Blade! You... you're hurt!" Dusty exclaimed, noticing the holes in the chopper's side.

"It's nothing... really. Here this is Otter... a former Navy plane... he was watching the show and well... you might be able to tell something about him." the helicopter indicated.

"Oh! Hey there Otter." Dusty studied him carefully, narrowing his eyes a bit. He had a dog so... he was blind? "Nice to meet you. I'm Dusty Crophopper." he introduced himself now, smiling, though he knew Otter couldn't see it.

Finn - Tags: Hugh, Aeris, Lightning

"I'm afraid it's not, sir." Finn replied bluntly. "You have a license plate of a dead car. I somehow doubt you're who you say you are." Finn immediately picked up on the dropped voice, as it changed rapidly and fluidly. Also... there seemed to be recognition between this red race car and the blue Hornet. Was he dealing with... an agent of some kind? An enemy agent? "Who are you really?" he asked, narrowing his eyes. "I need you to identify yourself now. We can do this the easy... or the hard way. I have full cooperation of the American authorities here, and I'm afraid I'm going to need answers. If you don't wish to be detained, then you'll tell me. It doesn't necessarily have to be here either... but I'm going to need those answers." Finn said firmly, glancing in Lightning's direction now.

[Titanic X 21]

Spray - Finn, Hugh, Aeriss, Lightning

The black plane heard the talking and made his way over, finally narrowing his brown eyes as he came up. "I don't doubt it!" he snapped, his eyes hard. "Look. I know you are on our side Finn, but I really don't trust spies that much. I do have a feeling like this car does have something to hide."

He looked back at 'Hugh'. "I just got back with my team and they said that they have a hit on that plate. Only question now is... Who's is it?" he asked, coming close to the blue Hornet. His brown eyes flashed a bit, something unknown shown in them briefly as he eyed the car.

[ZAFTPrime]

'Hugh' - Tags: Finn, Aeris, Lightning, Spray

'Hugh' was tense now. He looked uneasy at best, scared at worst. "I was sure my plate was legal. How could it not be?" He asked, trying to appear confused. "And whose is it?" He tried to appear uncertain of Lightning and who he was as he looked away. The light blue Hornet hoped that Finn wouldn't take action. That would expose him, as he didn't want Lightning to know he was still alive...yet.

But hearing the black plane there talking to Finn began to give him a bad feeling that his mission would be uncovered soon. The small projector was still experimental, so if it got hit, it would shut down, uncovering his real identity.

Shinn - Tags: Dusty, Shadow, Radar

He watched Dusty move to pick up the mic that was nearby. Shinn hoped he could do something to help. No one deserved to go through this.

((Can you have Lightning faint when 'Hugh's' real identity is revealed, Shadow? That would be too funny! ))

{Good luck on your touring again, Welkin! Good to know that you're job's picking up! :D }

Streak - Tags: Shadow, Finn, 'Hugh'

Streak cocked his head. There are more of my kind here? He was shocked to know that, but also thankful at the same time. Surely this place was a better world than his own... so far. "Oh? I'm not from this world... or... rather... this dimension." He stamped the ground with one claw, refering to the earth they were currently on. "But unlike your world, as far as I can tell, we do have such things as magic, and... in a way, you can say that magic brought me here." He chuckled a little. When he was much younger he would have thought that magic was an everyday possiblity. Dragons were using powers of elements constantly in the war raging there, including himself. But here? After being so long on this earth, he began to think magic was absurd. He himself had never reached the age in his own world to be able to use magic most dragons would think was elementary, and he doubted any 'magical' attacks were possible in this world.

"I didn't know there were more of us here," he stated quickly, "so I don't know. I just, well, dragons have been known to sometimes pair up with humans in my world. It was rare where I come from, but it did sometimes happen. I guess you guys are human enough for my loyalties to be tied to you. That, and the Corsair -his name's Rush- needed me at the time to push his tail and get out of his hangar."

Rush - Tags: Oskar

Rush shook his nose, "I appologize for my original stubburnness. After what happened to my squadron... and what had been pounded into me before hand... I guess I just couldn't get it out of my head that you Germans weren't all terrible." When Oskar had mentioned the Skipper, the Corsair hardly knew how to respond. "I..." he gave a look of question, "Honestly I don't know. The Skipper isn't the most... friendly of planes at first glance, but I don't think he'd outright discriminate against you. He's hard to talk to, at least for me. No matter what I try to tell myself, I still feel like I failed him during Glendalcanal."

Otter - Tags: Blade, Dusty

"Hah! Watching it? I wish!" Otter laughed, "More like listening to it." He shuttered a bit, the clatter of gunshots still distant in his ears. "But anyway, it's an honor to meet you..." he hesitated, "Mr. Crophopper."

((Thank you uvu. I haven't done a Cars/Planes roleplay in a very long time so if I confuse you or get something incorrect, just let me know. ;v;/ ))

Carylanne - Propwash Junction - Tags: Rosalie

Whistling to herself, Carylanne drove, for once, calmly behind other planes and touring cars. She was rather tired from driving so far to get here. So far that she had to stop along the way in some of the neighboring states.

Her two 'brothers' lived here as private mechanics for damaged cars that needed restoration. This was one of the rare times she got to see them seeing how they lived so far from each other. Fortunately, the trip was fun! She had the chance to meet one of her idols. A famous drag racer that gave her a tour of a small town they lived in in Nebraska.

The grey car slowed to a halt when a pearly glint caught her eye. She almost missed it,but gasped when she saw what it was. Not necessarily a what. But a who. A Mustang. The color of their paint was unusual but very pretty. Obviously very eye-catching.

She didn't really think about personal privacy as she approached them quickly. "...Excuse me? Ma'am?" Stopping a few feet behind her, Carylanne peered around her side to try and get her attention. Sure, it was probably rude, but she was curious. She'd never seen a Mustang like her before. Only pictures and through the television.

(I had a sick day today, sorry for not replying until now ;v; I'm having troubles with my heart-rate/breathing yippee
LOL your signature is the best Caryl, just make sure that there are no words that obviously symbolize cuss words ;3 (we're all fine with cuss words, its just site rules XD)
oh yes I will be updating Rosalie's appearance soon because my dad suggested stripes that go on a boss 302, so that makes up for the 'no pinstripes' I wanted lol. The painter also made the rear spoiler midnight blue yay! | Also I think I forgot to put her as a racer, so she does have a job /and is my only character with a job lol/)

Rosalie Redwood | Tags: Carylanne

Rosalie looked up in surprise as someone addressed her, seeing a female Z/28 a few feet away. The new car seemed to be from the 80s, so she was at least 10 years younger than her. "Oh, hello!" She was slightly wary of the other, who had obviously just arrived at the town and hadn't seen the carnage that was the remains of the battle.

[Dusty Crophopper]

((Thank you Kanzu! It is good that it's picking up! I DO have a three hour train ride tomorrow morning though, so I fully intend to post then. XD Also, I just got a great idea for the villains. You better watch out for those of you playing characters with tragic pasts. XD))

Finn - Tags: Aeris, Hugh, Spray, Lightning

"It belongs to a deceased car named Doc Hudson from Radiator Springs... you apparently resemble him but not quite. I'm afraid you're going to have to come with me." Finn drove in between Lightning and the Hudson now, scowling. "We need answers. Start driving in that direction." Finn nodded in the direction he'd been standing moments before. "And don't try anything funny. Mr. Krane, I'll require your assistance with this. Make sure he doesn't bolt. Come on now... move!" Finn ordered, tapping Doc's rear bumper lightly to prod him along.

Oskar - Tags: Rush

Oskar let a smile creep onto his face as Rush apologized, and he closed his eyes, and bowed his front. "No apology necessary, but I accept it all the same. I am used to such a reaction to me after all." He chuckled, opening his eyes. The fact Rush apologized meant that Oskar had done his job... and helped Rush heal, even if only a little bit. He listened intently to how Rush described the Skipper, and frowned thoughtfully. "He's not the nicest of planes, eh? But no discrimination... well that's good. And wait... you feel like you failed him... at Glendalcanal? Hold on, hold on... you and the Skipper... served together?" he inquired, eyes widening at this. "I had no idea! I had heard only the Skipper's name mentioned in relation to this place! Wait that... incident you related to me... it was... HE was your squadron commander?" Oskar blinked here, trying to contain his shock.

"Herr... Herr Rush... I am... I am sorry... I did not know..." He admitted, looking to the side with sorrow, his face tight and his lips pursed together. "Does he... does he blame you or something? You made the call yes but... he's the one who ultimately ordered the attack and... that is his responsibility, not your own." Oskar shook his pointed front here, thinking this through. "Is that why it's so hard? Or you still blame yourself for that slaughter?"

Blade and Dusty - Tags: Otter

"Pleasure's all mine." Dusty responded, smiling still. "Hahah! Yes I suppose he wasn't WATCHING it Blade!" Dusty pointed out Blade's error of words here, causing the helicopter to flush a bit, and give Otter an apologetic look.

"Er... yes sorry I just... I'm so used to... to saying... you know... the other thing." Blade said, wincing. Brilliant, Blade! Way to blow it with the vet! "Sorry..." he apologized again.

"Hey I was just gonna you know... make an announcement or something..." Dusty said, trailing off here and motioning to the stand with his eyes.

"Oh! Sure! Don't let me interrupt! Besides... me and Otter don't think it's coincidence that we're all gathered together like this! Think about it Dusty..." Blade almost seemed to not finish that thought as Dusty narrowed his eyes, the words playing in his mind.

"Huh... OK... so I'll see you in a bit!" he said, reversing as he began heading back to the podium now.

[ZAFTPrime]

((Oh, this will be good! ! Doc doesn't have a tragic past really, aside from what we talked about and what we know about him. So I feel he is safe. ))

Doc - Tags: Finn, Spray, Aeris, Lightning

As much as he wanted to go along with the spy, the light blue Hornet realized his mission was about to be exposed, but at the same time, it would put him in danger. He knew he had three options. One, he could bolt, two, he could go along with the spy, and three, he could reveal himself. Running would be a bad idea, as Finn would open fire on him. Going along with it would put him at risk of being called the enemy, and well, the last option he wanted to avoid. After a few seconds of thought, he decided to just outright admit it. If Lightning got mad at him, so be it. At least the truth would be out. He then faced Finn and spoke. "You want the truth? You got it." With those words, his form flickered before the disguise went down, revealing a midnight blue Hudson Hornet. On his side were the letters FBI, and he had the number 51 on as well.

'Hugh Hornet' was none other than said car in question. "The FBI insisted I take on this mission." Doc said as he looked at the spy car. "As for why I didn't reveal myself, let's just say I nearly lost my life some time ago. The FBI saved me and trained me as a field analyst because of how I nearly lost my life."

Doc looked down before he glanced back at the town around him. "They had a suspicion that the attackers at the medical conference where a bombing took place and the attackers here were the same cars. I was told to not reveal myself unless circumstances forced me to. And I wasn't necessarily listed as deceased. Just missing, presumed dead."

He glanced back at Lightning, hoping the kid wouldn't get mad or worse. "Hey, rookie..." He rasped. How would the kid take this?

((Can Lightning faint? Please? ))

[Partridgex]

((Omf. I'm sorry if I left something out. I've got to get caught up. xD))

Carylanne - Propwash Junction - Tags: Rosalie

Carylanne smiled. It was nice to finally speak to somebody and hopefully without the whole thing turning into an awkward silence....something Carylanne was good at. "I apologize for coming up to you like that. Your paint looks gorgeous! Very hard to-" Cutting her engine down to a low hum, she slowly stops talking as the younger car takes in her surroundings a little better. She'd been too focused on the road or the cars around her to notice. As a bonus, she'd had a little bit of trouble keeping her eyes open. Unfortunately, it'd been I while since she was here last so any remnants left would've been vague. "What uh....what happened here?" She was shocked. Frozen. There was no way she could have missed it. Exhaustion disappeared and a blunt wave of despair crept through her.

((Yeah she's going to seem a little slow in the head for the first few posts xD ))

[Titanic X 21]

Spray - Aeriss, Finn, Doc, Lightning

Spray gaped in shock at the Hornet. He had been expecting him to be with the enemy, not be an FBI agent! He had heard of the legendary racer, but to learn that he was alive and well, disguised and undercover, was something that threw him for a loop. His mouth fell open before he shook himself and regained his composure.

"Okay. Just what the h*** are you doing undercover?" he asked. "And what was so important at that medical conference that led to you getting recruited to begin with?"
