This blows.

Name's Keith Lumley, better known around the BSAA by my call sign - Grinder. Proudly working down in the East African Branch as an SOA, though I started up in the European Branch, where I worked alongside my best friend and ex-partner Quint Cetcham. Hit me up if you need somethin', y'know?

Quint’s fearful gaze almost immediately fell, a smirk replacing it as he watched the dolphin nudge him around, Keith trying to see it. He laughed, swimming a little further back, watching as it swam over to him, nudging his arm. “What are you doin’ down here, tough guy? You’re gonna get turned into shark bait if you stay around here.” The dolphin clicked in return, swimming around him. Quint kicked further away from the chains, not wanting the dolphin to hit the chains, or shove one of them into it. “Shoo, shoo.” he muttered, petting the dolphin’s head affectionately before waving it away with his hand. Turning back, he began to ascend up towards the surface, although it was still quite a way’s away. “Have fun gettin’ humped by dolphins.” Quint sniggered over his shoulder, laughing silently once the mic was off.

"Ugh, fuck off, Quint. This shit ain't funny. I'm being sexually assaulted by a sea creature." Keith held no hesitation in swatting away the invasive creature, each time feeling a harder nudge. He couldn't catch a firm look after the initial one, but that was all he needed to know that a horny dolphin thought he looked like a primed up lady. 'Sorry Flipper, I don't take the receiving end from anyone. And I definitely don't take shit from any male.'

His eyes narrows as he glared at Quint, scoffing as the man treated the creature with affection and adoration. "You think this is reaaal funny, don't ya?" Keith shook off the discomforting feelings, following Quint while shoo-ing away the unwanted admirer. "By the way, sharks are scared of dolphins. Thought nerds knew everything, or are you just the type sitting alone, jacking off to imaginary women?"

Quint only shook his head, keeping his thought too himself. He didn’t need to provoke anymore fighting while he needed to work. Mostly him doing the working while Keith stood and wathed, but it wasn’t like he wasn’t used to it. Obviously it had gotten Keith somewhere, though. Even if Quint did deny the promotions. There was no taking it back now though, considering that all of it had led up to this. He shook his head, sighing. There was work to be done, and he shouldn’t be thinking about personal problems. There were more pressing matters at hand.

“I unno man. Maybe there’ some radiation or some shit in there, but whatever it is, we won’t know until we open it.” He nodded at Keith’s statement, tucking his  equipment away to make sure it didn’t get caught once more. “Alright, let’s head back.” Quickly but carefully, he made his way towards the chains they had gone through, but paused once he saw that the water around him had turned a shade darker. Holding his palms out, he muttered a small ‘huh?’ before looking up, shining the flashlight around frantically. What it reflected made him yell, dropping the flashlight into the dark depths below.

"Ugh-" Keith brought his hands to his head, covering his ears as if it would help mute the sound of Quint's scream. It only served to make the ringing in his ears worse, leaving him seconds away from throwing off his mask just to get rid of it. "What the fuck, man? Are you trying to make me go deaf? What the hell is your problem?"

He twisted his body around once again, expecting to see Quint somehow caught back up in the chains, maybe he kicked one hard enough to move the entire mine, dooming the both of them. "What's your deal?" Keith's attached flashlight spread light over Quint, the rest of the area around them dark, devoid of any sunlight. There was more light from the deeper bits of the water, which he assumed to be Quint's flashlight. "You should've attached it, idiot. Don't tell me you're scared of the dark now." Moments passed in silence, Keith's pointed glare growing firmer as he waited, eyes set on his co-worker's shocked face.

"C'mon, just go get-" pausing mid-sentence his eyes shot around, feeling the waters around them moving. A darker shape slipped by, just out of the flashlight's reach, and Keith felt momentary panic rush through him. What if there were infected still left in the waters? Swallowing hard, he motioned for Quint to come to him. "Let's just get back up there and g-ahh what the-" Something nudged his backside, pushing him forward, and he immediately turned to face his "attacker".

"You gotta be shittin' me." His words were almost laughed, mocking clicks following him.

Jill Valentine’s encounter with the Grave Digger - Resident Evil 3: Nemesis

[rpdthelicker]

OOC: Guys.

We need to actually make things ACTIVE here. I know it’s tough with school and work however if you’re going to be away or anything PLEASE let one of us know. I notice we also have several characters who just…aren’t posting anymore!

If you’re bored or done with the group, please clear up the character.

If you’re waiting for someone to start something ask around (literally use the asks) or make an ‘Open’ Intro post that someone can pick up!

I’d really hate to see this group go under, and I know you guys can do it. <3

[bsaa-grinder-blog]

[[ I'd kinda like to add on saying that members don't necessarily have to be working on huge plots all the time! Just posting little bits and pieces or requesting anons through reblogged questions is also completely fine! We can't know you're online if you don't show us, just just show that you're around and hopefully someone else will be too, and I know I'll be available most of the weekend now. 

You honestly don't have to work on big plots to be active, though it is really fun once you get one going. Sometimes you just wanna have little casual conversations between characters, and that can be fun too! Even a few OOC posts can get members talking, I know I used to saying good morning everyday when I woke up! 

Guys, I know it's hard, but I know you can all do it. c: It's not too difficult! ]]

“Well it wouldn’t have happened if you hadn’t been tugging on my gear, asshole.” He muttered to himself, using the momentum from Keith’s push to propel himself forward in the water, now able to move about freely. Let his feet settle on the edge of the area that the capsule was set on, his hands tracing the edges of it.

“That’s weird..” he muttered, squinting his eyes as he ran his hand across the some-what sleek exterior, the chrome faded and scratched, but otherwise unscathed. Something should have been growing on it after this amount of time in the water. The missing marine animals in the area, the mines, now this? Something was wrong. He had a feeling it had to do something with whatever the hell was in the capsule.

Flicking a switch behind his ear on his headset, his eyepiece lit up, humming quietly as his gear got to work, scanning over the area as he swam around to capture each angle. Once it had reached 100%, it beeped negatively, and he frowned. He swam closer to it, knocking on cover with his knuckles, trying to test its thickness. It was definitely thick enough to resist his scanner, but from the indentations and the crevice that surrounded its circumference, he knew that it was sealed tight and that they would not be able to open it without some serious tools.

He took video and photos of the areas that caught his attention the most, shining his flashlight and taking mental notes. Once he was back, he could get to work on adjusting brightness, guessing the missing symbols, and figuring out what exactly they were dealing with. The serial code on the bottom, however, caught his attention the most.

CBW 9/9/234/435/6778/90.

There was only one thing to do now.

[bsaa-grinder-blog]

"Sure, blame it all on me. Not your fault for a lousy job gearing up in the first place. I told you that you needed to fix it up, but you just dove in anyway." He scoffed lightly, rolling his eyes as he listened to Quint's distorted voice as he spoke. After Quint was free and pushed back towards the capsule, Keith let himself sink back down, his hands still grasping the capsule to use as a guide. How tempting it was just to step on the shorter man below him, or use his to push off and away. Maybe he would keep that in mind for when they left, just so he could get a headstart back to the boat. It was a petty little competitive urge, but it hit him all the same.

"What's weird? Somethin' wrong with the capsule? Don't tell me that thing's gonna burst soon." He angled himself to long where Quint was, watching his "partner" examine the exterior just as he had a few minutes prior. "Y'know, shouldn't there at least be some bottom-of-the-food-chain shit 'round here? Like, damn, we're standing in rock and emptiness, it feels a little strange. Aren't like, oceans and shit supposed to be full of mermaids and sharks?" Everything aside, it still made him shudder to think that he and Quint were the only living things within a 100 yards from here. If they had been on good terms, some pestering jokes about repopulation would've been fitting. Joking aside, this was serious. Something definitely wasn't right out here, and this capsule had to be the reason.

Seeing Quint knock on the cover, Keith followed suit and did the same, pressing at close to it as he could with his head gear. Maybe he wasn't a computer genius, but he was no idiot either. This thing was tough, and it would take a lot for something to break it. No beast would get out of it without ending up fried fish afterwards, and he doubted anyone wanted to be down here when it did open.

Keith peered upwards, to the unseen surface of the water. They were pretty far down, but those mines went decently high. An explosion would set off a chain reaction, blowing that entire capsule to pieces. On the bright side, that made it all the more likely that there was nothing living inside, but that also left it wide open for an actual virus to contaminate the water. Just the idea that these mines could go off at any second was unsettling. "You almost done, Quint? We should reall head out and get a move on. If O'Brian's going to have our asses, let's bring them back uncooked so he can't chew us out."
