One thing that stood out to me, though, is dj constantly calling Too Sweet Spartan "TNS" instead of TSS. Unless he's referring to someone else, and if so, then, I dunno. There were a lot of posts and a ton of words and I'm trying to watch Wrestlemania and please don't spoil it for me. <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

Reading back, I have some light reads on people but nothing concrete. Seeing how tonight goes will help me formulate my opinions and strengthen my reads. On the DJ thing, I do think he likes people who post a lot. I have always posted tons and never had him go after me because I post a lot. He has only gone after me hard when I was scum.

<p><strong><span style="font-size:14px;">Night One</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

People hustle and fly through a busy corridor. A woman spots someone she knows and slips an earpiece into her friend's pocket. Another man walks calmly, patting a fellow crewman on the back as he passes. The calm man smiles and pauses. A young man runs up to him.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#FFA500;">"Sir, do you have a moment?"</span></p><p> </p><p>

His smile persisting, he shakes his head and continues on his way, the youngster quickly lost in the shuffle of people behind him.</p><p> </p><p>

====================================</p><p> </p><p>

A man stalks down the hallway. He's surly, gruff, and limits his interaction with others. Almost a shell of a person. He comes around the corner and is face to face with a near giant. Built like a brickhouse, the towering brute scowls at the gaunt stalker.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#FF0000;">"Bout time. We know why you're here."</span></p><p> </p><p>

The grim figure raises his head and stares into the eyes of the muscular man.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A9A9A9;">"Then you know why I'm going to keep walking past you, and you can't stop me."</span></p><p> </p><p>

With that, he shoves past the hulking menace and continues to stalk down the hall, in search of something known only to him. The monstrous man chuckles as he withdraws a gun.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#FF0000;">"Says you."</span></p><p> </p><p>

The towering man raises the gun and fires a blast of energy into the other man's back. Wounded, the man staggers forward, but keeps walking. Another shot and the man falls to a knee, but continues to crawl, determination visible in his body language. Scowling, the large man walks forward, looking down at his victim. One more shot to the head and he doesn't move anymore.</p><p> </p><p>

===================================</p><p> </p><p>

In a small laboratory, on a table sits a peculiar looking device. The room is littered with similar devices, with a big red button sitting on a work bench.</p><p> </p><p>

====================================</p><p> </p><p>

Two men meet in the hallway, one hunched over, keeping to himself in a crewman's uniform, the other walking with purpose, a passenger dressed to the nines.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">"Excuse me sir?"</span></p><p> </p><p>

The crewman mumbles something incomprehensible.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">"Sir, please, it's important. I just need to know-...Sir?"</span></p><p> </p><p>

The crewman continues at his rapid pace. The passenger grabs at his arm, and he whirls around, throws a punch and makes a run for it. Holding his nose, the well dressed man gives chase.</p><p> </p><p>

Around corners and down corridors, passengers and fellow crew alike diving out of the way, the chase is chaotic, messy, and somewhat cartoonish. Finally they come to a dead end. The crewman swirls around. The well dressed passenger pulls out his badge.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">"Space Marshal. You're under arrest."</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#0000FF;">"You just had to get on the ship. You just had to come looking. I was set up here. I was going to learn. Be a productive member of the crew. I wasn't going to hurt anyone."</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">"It's my job. I'm going to have to take you in as soon as the ship docks. In the meantime, it looks like you're spending the rest of the trip in the brig."</span></p><p> </p><p>

A knife flashes.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#0000FF;">"You'll never take me alive!</span></p><p> </p><p>

The criminal lunges at the marshal, but the knife is deflected and clatters to the floor. The marshal pins the criminal to the ground and slaps handcuffs on him. The criminal struggles, but it becomes clear quickly that this scuffle is over.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Tha Black Phenom is dead. He was Individual Aligned Revenant.</strong></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Opulent has been apprehended. He was </strong><strong><span style="color:#0000FF;">Crew Aligned Waned Criminal.</span></strong></p>

What I would try to do is divert attention on something different (yet within' the context of what is being discussed), with something people feel compelled to say something about... Like calling someone out on something you feel is scummy or weird.</p>
