Inferno’s Loyalty Mission Log1. After recovering from his bout of bug-puking sickness, with a little unwanted help from Amp, BB was up on his feet being a brat again until duty called. Previously mentioning to Kid Ghost that he needed information on the Hale/Harpy/Abraxas situation, he conveniently found a report on his desk which… cough came from an unknown source which he assumed was obviously Kid Ghost.
BB felt compelled by his good nature and will to attempt a rescue on Abraxasdue to his good deed towards Harpy. Going against Voltiac’s concerns, BBand Inferno took to the road and broke into Hale Enterprise, hacking the elevator and going down the floors to CERBERUS’ HQ where they were stopped by Hale himself before stumbling upon anything important.
The two heroes engaged in a battle with Hale, which was ultimately one-sided with their lack of coordination and Inferno’s gloves were critically damaged before he was also injured. In a haste to escape with Inferno’s unconscious body, BB lost a bracer to Hale’s grabbing hands. But not before breaking his nose. Twice.
2. A week later, Adam’s injuries are mostly healed and after spending some (more) quality time with Jackie in the bathtub and finding their obnoxious-looking room on the Blitz floor, He decides to head back to his house, since a day earlier his mom called and showed concern.
3. On his way home he noticed how the streets have more officers on patrol than usual and so, he decided to ask one of the cops what’s going on. From his really short talk with said cop he gathered they were looking for someone and, apparently, just found him. Adam was cuffed and brought to the police station where he met Anaia, Cerberus’ Killbot. Anaia, impressed by Adam’s work on Jackie’s bracer, promised him off the hook in exchange for him working for Cerberus. Some talking and convincing later and Adam makes the terrible decision of accepting, not really knowing why himself. Upon arrival at Hale Enterprise, he was taken to see Hale. Adam was surprised to see he’s not a children-beating lunatic all the time.
4. As he woke up in the morning and realized he wan’t at HQ, Adam decided it would be better if he spent the entire day in bed instead of being forced to work for Cerberus. However, due to his adventurous personality he wasn’t capable in staying in his room for so long, peeked outside and ran into Anaia. He familiarized Adam with the lab he’d be working in and even took him to see the brace being studied, at his request of course.
Being given limited freedom of work at the lab, Adam prepared a list of materials he needed for his new project. Soon after he started working, the Cerberus alarm went off. Doing the math in his head, He figured it’s probably Bteam infiltrating again and pulled the obnoxious little boy play on Anaia so he’d let him out. After getting out of the lab finally, Adam slipped the robot guy off and literally ran into BB, which later resulted a gathering of the other Bteam members present at the scene. Awkward silence and shame made Adam take off with the worst guilty feeling one could ever have and BB, along with Kenny and Matt, were seen out of the facility.
5. Days passed with Adam still in Cerberus’ base, kept working on his “top secret project” while every time to time some Cerb. agents accompanied him to eat or something like that. Hale even took him out for McDonald’s and bought him a happy meal. This scenario ended up with Hale sending Adam back to the labs with an escorting guard while he stayed to clean up his darling car.
6. After a night of no sleep Adam thinks he’s all done. His curious escorting guard showed interest in what he’s been working on and that resulted in the lab doors blowing up. Whoops. Blowing a few more doors and grabbing BB’s bracer in the project, Adam ran for the elevators up to the lobby where he encountered Hale. Hale seemed surprised by Adam’s rampage but Adam apologized for being rude and showed him a private demonstration of the gloves he’s created thanks to him oh his way out and fled the scene.
He also noted he left souvenirs for the hardworking agents of Cerberus, his happy meal toys all scattered around the level he’s been held in in places they shouldn’t be.
7. Adam is reunited with his bike and is back on the Teacup HQ again, sleeping on the couch with BB.
Anonymous said: Why did Adam join up with Cerberus? How did they convince him?? How does the rest of the team feeeeeeeeel? Does BB miss his bff?
Shouri: Cerb. pulled some strings and convinced the police Adam is reoffending, since he has a nice record already they took him down to the station where Anaia told him they were impressed by his intelligence and wants him among their lines. The other option he had was going back to juvvie and he was not very eager about that!
So yeah, he accepted, felt terrible for a while, got seen by some of the Bteam in Cerb. labs, felt even worse etc etc. but now he’s back! I’m finishing up typing it all soon, actually!
Current EventsBlue Blitz, upon realizing that his bracer was lost at CERBERUS, decided to infiltrate the building yet again, this time with Voltiac and Kid Ghost aiding him. However, their peaceful approach did not bear any fruit so the hot-headed Blue Blitz ran in and started a commotion with Nova, Kaleb and Queensman.In an attempt to remedy the situation, Kid Ghost phased them through to the third sublevel where they found everything locked down anyway. Before they were “escorted” out by the suited men of CERBERUS facilities, Blue Blitz and his team encountered Inferno who appeared to have been there the past few days.
They were then informed by Anaia of CERBERUS that he was there upon his own accord. Shocked by this news and betrayal, Blue Blitz and his team left without much of a fuss and without the bracer they came for.
May 24-25thOliver - Went to buy a hamster for his stupid roommate and bumped into Miss Seven on the way, where he finally got her number. After dropping the hamster off back at HQ, he met up with Kenny, Ferrom and Tori on patrol. They stopped a robbery and briefly encountered Agent and Astra before heading off to check out a museum break-in at the hands of Facade and Charade, whom they captured but ultimately let escape, though the twins didn’t manage to take anything with them.
Ferrom - Headed out for a round of night patrol and bumped into Kenny and met Tori of S-Team for the first time. Oliver ended up joining the group as well and the four bust some robbers causing trouble nearby. The four then headed to the museum where they caught the twins, Facade and Charade, looting the place carelessly. However, the two escaped and the crew helped clean up their mess a bit.
Kenny - Helped bring Matt home with Elise. Later met Tori and went on patrol with him along with Ferr and Oli. They stopped a robbery and then headed to the museum where they met Facade and Charade.
Matt - Caused some drama involving himself, Astra and Ruby. Was taken by Kenny and Elise back to HQ with burns and bruised arms a la Astra. Moped around HQ for awhile before coming across Claire trying to do his laundry. Agreed to take Claire to the zoo in exchange for laundry services.
Jackie - He’s been a lazy asshole for the past few days, spending most of his time in the infirmary bed with Adam, sleeping and rolling around. He has yet to notice that one of his bracers are missing (on his legs). He encountered Elijah awkwardly outside of the B-Kitchen and there seems to be a bit of tension between the two of them as well.

Inferno is currently in the lower floor infirmary, being tended to by The Stranger’s doctor.
Garuda felt uncomfortable that he would be unable to contact Harpy once she moved out of the fortress, thus went out with her to buy her a cellphone. They picked one with voice command so Harpy would have less trouble using the phone with her wings. The next day, Garuda and Harpy accompanied The Stranger to Club Naughtea where The Stranger had a score to settle with one of the patrons (who he mentioned is “scum”). After punching said patron in the face, he procured a bottle of expensive whiskey. Several glasses later, Harpy and The Stranger were both intoxicated and Garuda took both of them home.
Mission log: B-tle BrigadeLog of Events:
1. Oli got a strange call from school. They were concerned because several students had gone missing recently and thought that he was one of them. Actually, he had been missing because of his infection from Mia. Oli discussed his suspicions with Kenny because he had never gotten a call before, despite all his truancies. They agreed that they would ask around the next day.
2. At lunch there was nothing to eat because the cafeteria had run out. Kenny, Oli, and Will noticed that there were far more overweight students than normal enthusiastically eating their food. Will attempted to get them some milk, which was the only thing left, and unintentionally provoked one of the kids. Kenny, thinking that he was just an unstable civilian, went over to try and reason with him and to defend Will. The fat kid went berserk. Kenny tried to avoid his blows since he did not want to fight a civvie. He got hit in the face and went to the nurse with Will. The nurse seemed unusually interested in Kenny and Will. Later Kenny got the creepy feeling he was being watched.
3. Oli was sent to detention for beating up the kids who hit Kenny. While Kenny was touched at the thought, he still disapproved of using violence against civilians. They butted heads over this. Later as Kenny was walking home, he was attacked by a swarm of bugs and had to use the last resort energy expulsion mechanism in his suit to fight them off. He was found by Ferrom and taken home.
4. Kenny stayed in the infirmary recovering from the incident. When Oliver found out, he decided it was time to take action, and dragged Ferrom and Will with him to school in order to investigate the strange events that had been going on at school. They broke into the administrative offices and found files that showed a series of deaths linked to the missing students, which had been covered up by the school to avoid panic. However, the bodies did not look like students at all. Upon returning to HQ, Kenny was given the details but disapproved of Oli’s course of action, which led to another argument. This was eventually stopped by an outburst from Will. In the end they decided to have Ferrom tail any absent students in order to find out what was happening to them. Brofists were promised in the future as soon as Kenny is able to move again.
5. While Ferrom was attempting to follow one of the students, Will bumped into Oliver on a walk. They decided to call Fer for an update on the situation, and reached him just as he found the target. They met up at a diner where the student had been voraciously stuffing his face. Eventually the student exited out of the back door, so Will, Oli and Fer decided to go around the front and wait for him to come onto the street. When he didn’t appear, they walked to the alleyway behind the diner and saw the school nurse, who told them nobody was back there and that they should go home. After she left they investigated a bit and Will found a body that turned out to be the student’s, along with a beetle shell. They headed back to HQ to discuss with Kenny.
6. After parting with their newfound friend Max—Kenny, Oli, and Will got a call on their intercom from Ferrom saying he had tracked down another one of the infected kids. The three changed in a cramped phonebooth with great difficulty. They staked out a steakhouse, waiting for him to come back out when they spotted the school nurse their as well. They saw her transform and start sucking the fat out of the kid when they intervened. They found that physical attacks were all but useless because of her shell. As they were formulating something to counteract this, the Nurse released a swarm of her drones on them and escaped. Ferrom managed to use his powers to fight them off but by this time the Nurse was long gone. They returned separately to HQ to decide what to do next. Ferrom seemed to be considering an investigation of the school on his own.
7. The four met up at an ice cream parlor to discuss the next course of action, now that they no longer know where the “nurse” is. Since Ferrom had been finding more of the shells around school, they decided to ask him to investigate and act as their metal detector in order to find where she’s hiding. Ferrom didn’t seem keen on going to school as a student and eventually walked off when the pressure got too great.
8. Deciding that a final search of the school might be best, they snuck in after hours to look around. Ferrom used his powers to detect strange readings from an unused basement where they discovered the Nurse’s nest. After a few slip ups, the group got it together and used teamwork to keep the shell open so that Will could do damage to her. They decided to bring back the body and an egg to HQ for analysis. AND THEN THEY HUGGED. THE END—of the beetle event <3
May 16-17Kenny-Used his free period to spend some time with his B-team bros. Met Max, who he thinks is a normal kid and is excited about that. Later he met up with them again after school, got caught in the rain, and headed to a cafe to wait it out. There they discussed possibilities of a band forming. Originalitea? After parting with Max—Kenny, Oli, and Will got a call from Ferrom. (See Beetle Event Log for what happened next). Received a key from BB and went for a shower.
Had an encounter with Hale. Continued to make terrible tea puns with Oli. Came back to HQ to find it a mess. Cleaned up. Went to get icecream with the b-tles to discuss what to do about the nurse.
Oliver - Skipped last period to find Will, Jackie and Adam eating ice cream. After school he met Max, and while waiting for the rain to stop in a cafe they discussed really bad band names with Will and Kenny. Later they received a call from Fer, beetle stuff happened, and he took home all their ruined uniforms to get them drycleaned. Received a key from BB and went to take a look at the new base.
BB - Having spent his evening patrolling on a voltage high from Amp, he slept in the next day and was late for school. After a brief encounter with the rest ofB-Team, BB left to take care of administrative duties. Later on, he called a meeting and distributed B-Bolt keys for the Blitz Floor of the Tea Fortress. All members but Dastier currently possess one. The Stranger received one, but rarely goes up, as he is still angry that BB would dangle it over his head like that.
Later patrolling with Kid Ghost, BB came upon The Queen where they stopped her from eating prostitutes. Aided by Steam Boy, they were able to fight her and Venefica off, barely. Blue Blitz is current cursed to vomit bugs for a few days.
Will - Was late to school but skipped class for the first time to have an ice cream picnic with teammates. Enjoyed some downtime with new friend Max before leaving to assist Ferrom with another student affected by the beetles. (see earlier entry, Kenny’s) He witnessed the nurse transforming into the culprit of the attacks ended up in an altercation with her. Eventually she escaped; Will split up with the others to go back to HQ, where he received a key. He went out on patrol with BB afterward.
Caiden - Going through days with little to no events. Ran into Abraxas, and talked him out of foolishly barging into Hale’s building. Bought him a milkshake. Patrol went smoothly, boring, with typical crimes being stopped. Returned to HQ, discussed living arragements with resident Harpy, only to have their actions once again be misinterpreted by Ruby. Assumed that Caiden and Harpy were doing the nasty and assumed Harpy was pregnant with his child, which she texted to Sonas. Caiden took her phone, sent KG and Sonas texts about how ‘Ruby sucked’ then threw it. Showed Harpy the training room, found out from Shift that Ruby has gone crazy and has vowed to make his life miserable. Current situation unknown. Also did not receive a Bolt Key, which led to him misunderstanding. Unsure how to feel about the situation, is sleeping in his old room until further notice.
Adam - Caused some troubles in class again which resulted in him being kicked out. Again. He then ran into BB and Will, and spent the time together outside classes and eating ice cream, with other Bteam members gradually joining in. He left at some point because he had to go back home.
Garuda - Left the infirmary as Harpy had made a full recovery. Talked to Dastier about the rumor Ruby had started and things started to get awkward between the two of them. He also went to the Chai Cafe to ask for his old job back despite being fired once, and quitting another time. He has been put on a three weeks probation period during which he will work for less pay.
Ferrom - While on a walk through town, he notices a person walking into a steakhouse with fitting the body type of some of the infected boys at Roos Rois Boys School. He alerted Kenny, Oliver, and Will once again. After their arrival, the student was just finishing up and the four split into teams of two to stake out both ends of the alley. On Kenny and Ferrom’s end, they see a figure not of the student but of the nurse (whereas on Oliver and Will’s end they see the student). The four see the nurse transform into a large beetle monster and feed on the boy. A battle ensues and the four realize that none of their attacks are working. The nurse retreats and the four head home.
Eli - Witnessed Miasma destroying street lights on the way home from patrol and had a quick scuffle to try to stop him. He is recovering from a non threatening poison from Miasma.
Anonymous said: So, does this mean we're all being kicked out of? I mean....its TEA fortress....not Blitz or B Fortress....? I figured we'd all be crashing in there....
Yes.
It’s Tea Fortress in terms of being the main hangout for everyone. Everyone and anyone is still available to hang out or gather there/rendezvous and it is also a safe haven when heroes are in need but only B-Team lives there.
In short, BTeam/Blitz Fam, being lead by Blue Blitz and Amp, is considered the ‘A’ Team of Teacup United. Naturally, they’d own the main building.
May 13-14thOliver - Got his upgraded leg back from Adam and can move properly again. Finally met Ferrom properly, and dragged him and Will to school in order to investigate the beetle plot. Afterwards had another argument with Kenny about this, mainly regarding working as a team and keeping everyone’s interests in mind instead of recklessly charging into things. But everything is okay now.
Kenny - Had creampuffs thrown on his face by Sunetta. Stuck in the infirmary. After he found out what Oli and the others did he got into an argument with him. Will interceded and they decided to focus on what was really important.
Will - Got dragged to school in order to investigate beetle plot. Stopped Kenny and Oliver’s argument and has been thinking about the beetle plot ever since becoming part of the team dealing with it. Busy with schoolwork and other related things, has basically been thinking himself into a rut.
Ferrom - After the break in, a discussion between the four occured and Ferrom was persuaded into following one of their school mates. He ended up searching for Gordon the whole day and finally found him as he was entering an 80s diner that evening. He immediately called Oliver and Will to the scene. As they arrived, Ferrom informed them that Gordon had just slipped out through the back and the three proceeded to wait for Gordon at the alleyway away from plain sight. They waited and he never came so the trio went to check out what’s going on. Instead, they find their school nurse, Ms. Ratched, who informed them that she had just finished “dinner” and skips off. Ferrom later tells them that he did not see her in the diner. As they head off further into the alley, they find a body of a grownup (believed to be Gordon’s) and laying nearby a beetle shell.
Blitz HQAn HQ within a HQ.
The Blitz Team HQ is the very top level of Tea Fortress, only accessible through elevator with a lightning bolt key that every member of B-Team possesses. There is no button or computer that will tell you that there is a Blitz floor.
The floor is completely furnished with its own living space and kitchen among other facilities (a lab, a training gym and shared rooms for each member in pairs). The Blitz Floor is the most technologically advanced section of the Tea Fortress, complete with eye scanners before the entrance and is unknown by most if not all. The windows are all made of shatter-proof glass while the walls are completely reinforced.
While the majority of the Tea Fortress is open for all heroes to gather and hang around, the Tea Fortress primarily serves as B-Team’s base. (In other words, those who haven’t found their own place should probably start.)
