TMO (Craigh): Eh, just No. :)
Michael: LOL
Michael: Unless the word is Bien, I must make sure you are OK!!!
TMO: tired. got all moved out of the rental last 2 days. Lots of moving and cleaning and frustration. First day wife's van wouldn't start, so we only had 1 truck.
Michael: Ah man I'm sorry to hear that :( I wish your week had gone a bit better
TMO: me too!!
TMO: everything okay-ish on your end?
Michael: I close next week, so may your bad misfortune sail past me when I move in to the house
Michael: (Seriously though, I'm sorry you had a rough week)
Michael: How far was the drive to your new place?
TMO: I lived.... this time!
Michael: LOL
Michael: My entire family is just so excited to move crap in and i'm like. Nothing is going into that house until a professional cleaning crew has cleaned it. No ifs, ands, or buts
TMO: Heh, understood
Michael: But anyways, you got like five minutes on discord?
TMO: sure thing

BOB Hello Lorie
Lorie: Evening - I logged in early since they said it was slow to load.... guessing you took something offline since it was so quick for me?
TMO: most of my issues were on my end. I hadn't connected my personal laptop to the wireless at my inlaw's place. Honestly, I have *no* idea how it was connected to the internet at all!
Lorie: LOL - the gerbil was curious and allowed it
Lorie: Evening TMO
TMO: howdy howdy

BOB Hello Carissa
Carissa: Hi all!
Michael: Hey Carissa!
TMO: hey howdy!
Lorie: Evening Carissa
BOB I hope everyone had a decent week
BOB tomorrow is Bookfest for me, start of Summer Learning
Carissa: Rollercoaster of a week. Bookfest sounds fun.
Carissa: It has books in it. Or at least the title.
Michael: Just so everyone is aware, TMO is very smart and a good listener LOL.
BOB Every child who comes gets at least one if not three books
TMO: your coaster went Up? Mine only went down. :P
Michael: That's great bob!
Michael: LOL
Carissa: Very nice!
Lorie: that sounds awesome - we signed TMac up to read to pets at the local shelter
Carissa: Oh no, mine when down then up then down then maybe up?
Lorie: Also a rollercoaster week here... but I made it to Friday and I'll be okay
Michael: Does that program also offer a readers card for the kids bob? LIke, if they read five books they are given one? Is it that kind of program?
BOB Execellent Lorie
Michael: I loved those programs during my high school years.
Carissa: Samee
BOB Free books the publishers give to the Library to hand out to kids
BOB Just show up at the event and get books
Lorie: I did see that Pizza Hut is offering a summer Book It program
Michael: Ah I see. NO! It's that easy now?
Lorie: ... but Tmac hates their pizza so :: shrug :: not for us
Michael: I had to READ FIVE to get a freebie
BOB grins if you read or attend programs you get a chance to win prizes
Lorie: Give away all the books... let those kids read
BOB Adults can win a weekend at MargarittaVille for example
Lorie: Where are you setting up BOB?
Carissa: Can I pretend to be a kid and get free books?
BOB This year is at AARLCC and I am doing VR and AR
Lorie: ew... why are you mad that the parents ... Margaritaville?
BOB chuckles
Lorie: Oh very nice!!!
Michael: Also, to be fair, that program introduced me to Lord of the Rings, Narnia, and a whole bunch of other classics so it was well worth it.
Michael: Although...Never read Wuthering Heights. That was a mistake
BOB We give out lots of adult books too, but at events
Michael: Whelp, time to set up a vacation condo in Florida right next to your library then.
Lorie: I don't recommend the Mayor of Casterbury
Lorie: We used to call it the mayor of castration
Lorie: err castration
Carissa: I'll take any and all books, thanks.
Michael: OH MY GOD
Michael: They still do!
Michael: At least in High School
Michael: NO! Carissa are you saying you have never not liked a single book?
Lorie: We had a list that was given to us at the end of 8th grade that was STRONGLY encouraged to all of us... oh the torture of some of those books
Lorie: BOB, tell them to read your Thomas anti-hero books :X
Carissa: It's rare for me to hate a book. But I'll read whatever you toss in my face.
BOB chuckles
Carissa: But don't worry, there are books I hate.
Lorie: (It's been almost 20 years, I'm still bitter about that series!)
Michael: The best teacher I had let us do Catch-22, 1984, Book of Luke, Picture of Dorian Gray, and the Hounds of the Baskervilles in my Sophmore year. The book selection went downhill from there.
Michael: Ah I gotcha Carissa haha. Yeah, i'll read a book, but now when I'm halfway through or so, if I'm not liking it, I tend to put it down now. Just don't have the time I used to :(
Lorie: I did my senior thesis on Dystopian worlds -- Brave New World, 1984, Handmaid's Tale, Clockwork Orange
Michael: Brave New World was a fantastic book, but I can never read it again. It scarred me a bit in a way 1984 did not
Michael: That thesis must have been badass
Michael: lol
Carissa: Same! No reason to waste time on a crappy book, but I've had good luck on the ones I've picked out lately
Michael: BOB! Get in here with your book stories!
Michael: :)
Michael: And more importatnly your recommendations!
Lorie: I got an A
Michael: I would have given an A because it was probably a highly entertaining paper
Lorie: Im just glad I don't to pretend that Shakespeare is the greatest ever
Michael: I mean, it's Distopian
Michael: Er, I don't particularly like Sharespeare
Michael: Just never really got it I guess
Michael: Hamlet was OK
Lorie: 12th night is my favorite... hands down
Michael: Fair enough :)
Lorie: But that's because I like Tartuffe
Lorie: :: laughs ::
Lorie: I'm just glad I don't have to read Waiting for Godot again in French... /s he doesn't show up with 150 more pages
BOB chuckles
Lorie: As survived the great reading of El Cid in Spanish
BOB So the four of you can work with Craigh
Michael: I got in trouble my freshman year because I wrote that ahem, and I quote: "Romeo and Juliet were humanistic failures because of their entitled attitudes of nobility. Furthermore, they lacked empathy" But the part that got me in trouble is I ended it with: "Finally, the fact that they lacked any reasonable amount of commen sense and succumbed to being narsiccistic young adults made this a pointless play."
BOB getting him acclimated
Lorie: :: laughs :: Romeo and Juliet should be outlawed ...
Michael: Yes, sorry bob. Just reminscing
Michael: :)
BOB That is good
Michael: While we talk to Craigh and get into character, lighting question bob, what's your favorite Shakespear play?
BOB MacBeth
Michael (Talwin): Should have seen that one coming
Michael (Talwin): It was in the game
BOB grins
Carissa: shocked as per usual
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Lorie (Licornah): :: laughs :: No it's not... it's Othello
Michael (Talwin): Wait really?
Talwin: Craigh?
Lorie (Licornah): (No, I'm kidding, he likes MacBeth for the happy ending, just like in his Campaign )
Talwin: I know it's not really a question that can be answered, but are you...ok? Is there angthing I can do?
Carissa: yeah and I hope we get to know who that new guy is...
Michael (Talwin): But MacBeth didn't have a happy ending as I recal?
Carissa: If you like lots of murder it was
Michael (Talwin): That was the three witches one right?
Licornah: Maybe we should give him some space to breathe...
Michael (Talwin): Or am I mixing and matching
Carissa: yep
BOB I do have a small starting idea too for you Carissa
Talwin: Ah, then if you like murders, then yes it was very much a Murder on the Macbeth Castle
Michael (Talwin): Ah, then if you like murders, then yes it was very much a Murder on the Macbeth Castle
Michael (Talwin): I've already failed bob at IC and OOC!
Lorie (Licornah): (Agatha...Agatha... Agatha... )
Carissa: lol
BOB LOL Michael
Carissa: it's fine, not sure where Craigh is yet...
Talwin: Hestitantly on hand
Talwin: Gently holds our a water gourd
Talwin: Thirsty?
Carissa: (inn or is this days later or...?)
BOB a handful of days later for Craigh
Carissa: thx
Michael (Talwin): What's that parady of Shakespear that does the condensed of all his shows. I need to throw that on for a refresher
BOB and when all the building is completed to move Rae forward
Michael (Talwin): Pagers....I remember those....
Carissa: says the youngest here, lol
TMO: sorry, I'm back. had to do some emergency kitchen cleanup after a Nat 1 on my Drink Filling roll
Michael (Talwin): Youngest! No way! I'm only 31
Lorie (Licornah): (google Sir Mix-a-Lot Beepers... feel old)
Michael (Talwin): Lol TMO :)
Carissa: Yep, youngest! Close in age, but I beat you by a couple years :)
Michael (Talwin): Ugh
Michael (Talwin): lol
Carissa: roll better this session TMO
TMO: Hold on, let me get my ear trumpet
Carissa: lol
Michael (Talwin): LOL
TMO: alright, was that paging for me to roll Learn Spells?
Michael (Talwin): Sometimes I think a pager was nicer. If someone needed to get a hold of you, you knew who it was and could choose to call back or not. Now it's a guessing game on if its family, work, or a scam telemarketer
TMO: it's a scam. it's always a scam
Carissa (N'laea): (no to RP Craigh lol
Michael (Talwin): LOL TMO
Carissa (N'laea): Talwin is asking how he is, we're checking up on you a few days later
Carissa (N'laea): (I didn't select Shi, but she can be there if he wants)
BOB YOu can roll spells TMO
Michael (Talwin): He handed some water and was very gentle with you
TMO: roger, gotcha
Michael (Talwin): Since you know, you just came back to life. No idea what that's like, but probably is....wel I have no idea. Let us know what it was like :)
TMO (Craigh): (we'll do 1 spell roll, then the RP, which sounds like it's a few days later)
Carissa (N'laea): si
TMO (Craigh): you said he already knows Read Magic, right?
Lorie (Licornah): (Shake the dice up in the bag...)
Carissa (N'laea): (Discord says yes, he said that)
BOB chuckles
TMO (Craigh): Copy spell first; because learning it makes *everything* easier and faster
Craigh: [CHECK] Learn Spell (vs. Target 85) [SUCCESS by 57] [d100 = 28]
BOB Yes Read Magic is the first Known Spell for every mage
BOB My other question I asked on the site was all the buildings are in Hourglass? so around the Inn of the Lost Eagle
Carissa (N'laea): and the two who'd have most input there are the two not in yet...
Craigh: Am I okay? I don't know. Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
Craigh: sighs.
BOB Sad but True
Carissa (N'laea): Bixi I believe so yes, but not sure for Zayden
Talwin: Is there anything I can do?
Talwin: Worried
Talwin: But hiding it
Lorie (Licornah): (It's too early for Metallica BOB)
Raelynn: It's only been a few days. You don't need to be anything.
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Craigh: I mean, I'm alive when I shouldn't be. Second time, but I actually died this time. I'm happy I'm back, but ... scared, maybe, at the same time?
Raelynn: nods
Craigh: And, I'm just going to say this, talking about all this is *hard*. You guys don't make it easy to just shrug things off.
Craigh: Thieves Guild people only get touchy-feely when they're trying to pick your pockets
Raelynn: Well you know I love talking! But if you want quiet, I can do that too. Maybe.
Craigh: *descending whistle*
Raelynn: But I know I find talking about things helpful. N'laea disagrees, but I think it's good for people.
Youtargim: Ummm I try to not be touchy feeling'
Craigh: No, it's okay. But, how do you stand looking at this?
Youtargim: except some people
Raelynn: It's okay to be touchy feely!
Raelynn: shrugs
Warm smile looking at Rae
Raelynn: Because I see your beautiful blue eyes and it reminds me you're still Craigh.
Raelynn: And I'm sure in a few more days, I won't even need that reminder. You're you.
Craigh: Yeah, sure. Pull the other one.
Raelynn: is confused
Craigh: I've still got my old spellbook at least, and one of them in there is Change Self. It can give me about 15 minutes of normal, at least.
Raelynn: Not sure what you mean BUT just remember you can be whatever you need to be. Even if I get used to you, and you don't get used to you, it's okay. We'll find a way for you to be... okay with it. I can't guarantee love here, but at least acceptance.
TMO (Craigh): (too many at leasts :P )
Carissa (Raelynn): ehh we're writing a rough draft, editor can fix that later
Raelynn: And if you want, I can find you a fabulous outfit to make you feel better!
Craigh: chuckles dryly.
Michael (Talwin): My sister is over and just read that in a highly insulting tone LOL
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Michael (Talwin): She has been banished :)
Talwin: We can find anything you need to make you feel better buddy
Craigh: I still have no clue what this hand and foot thing is all about.
Craigh: holds up his merfolk left hand
Michael (Talwin): (whelp, missed htat completely)
Raelynn: Maybe the goddess thought you needed to be better at swimming.
Raelynn: And eating.
Michael (Talwin): Tries to hold back a Snort
Talwin: Tries to hold back a Snort
Raelynn: I mean you WERE a little bit thin.
Talwin: Craigh, it doesnt' matter what you look like
Talwin: Your one of us
Craigh: Does your spine do this?
Craigh: sways side to side and stretches up and down about a foot in length.
Talwin: Sigh. Craigh, do you still have your dry as desert wit and humor?
Talwin: Also that's kind of cool
Youtargim: Can you swim like that? Like a Dolphin?
Craigh: Heh. I'm not to 'cool with it' yet. Sorry.
Talwin: Solumnly
Talwin: I know
Talwin: But on my end, it's pretty badass
Raelynn: Huh, that's find of... hmm, could be handy.
Talwin: Snaps Fingers!
Talwin: I know!
Talwin: I don't know if you would be willing to try
Talwin: But we could build you a dipping pool near your chambers!
Talwin: Shrugs
Raelynn: Is that one of the weird things Zayden said you should try?
Talwin: Then if you have a new affinity for water, you don't have to go far
Craigh: There are good things about this time around. No nightmares or amputation pain. But I still can't sleep well, and everything just feels 'weird'.
'Lemon' connected
Raelynn: Well it's only been a few days, silly! Who accepts such a radical change in such a short amount of time? Give yourself a little grace.
Talwin: Sleeping well? Well, there was good couple of years I didn't sleep well because I had a sword constantly badgering me to go kill stuff
Talwin: I have some techniquest that will help
Talwin: Promise
Talwin: The best one is getting hammered with fine brandy, but I only did that sparingly
Licornah: Ehn, you're an adventurer, sleeping in a comfy bed is probably weird... have you tried sleeping outside on the ground? It might help
Raelynn: Or you could have some nice lavendar tea to calm your mind. A bit healither, too.
Talwin: Shudder
Licornah: I bet the squirrels would help make you a nice bed of sticks and straw...
Talwin: I don't know about him, but I sure got used to a comfortable bed...
Craigh: ... The squirrels?
Talwin: Cuts hand across the air
Lorie (Licornah): (Oh...you're a hero I see )
Talwin: Regardless of method, there is a method
Licornah: :: nods :: The squirrels here are quite helpful
Youtargim: Hey there Lemon
Lorie (Licornah): (Evening Lemon)
Raelynn: Or fluff and feathers. Maybe your bed is too hard and uncomfortable and dry?
Talwin: If we go right up to Kenna and ask for sleeping potions, I'm sure we could come up with at least a pharmacuetical solution for you
Craigh: wiggles a finger around inside his ear.
Michael (Talwin): Hi Lemon!
Craigh: Maybe these ears aren't hearing well.
Lemon: Hello friends
Carissa (Raelynn): Hi Lemon!
Lorie (Licornah): (Congrats on surviving a school year!)
Raelynn: You know, those are good ears for piercing...
Youtargim: Looks around, Oopps that is an Apple
Youtargim: Sorry,
Lemon: Well, two more days to go, but I'll take it lol. Thank you!
TMO (Craigh): howdy Lemon!
Talwin: See, look Craigh! We are are putting out suggestions. They are different levels of acceptable in nature, but otherwise suggestions. We love you buddy!
Youtargim: I guess Lemons are not in this area
Raelynn: What?
Youtargim: I really need to look for those for you
Talwin: Hell, try sleeping in water!
Lemon: I actually don't even really like lemon
Youtargim: Lemons make really tart but good juice
Youtargim: and then you can shave them and use the skins
Talwin: Mutter under his breath, Twigs and sticks in my bed roll
Craigh: feels at his neck.
N'laea: Ah, like sumac?
Talwin: Shudders again
Youtargim: LOTS of uses
Craigh: I've .. never checked. Do I have gills?
Youtargim: I guess that apple there looked yellow to me, and reminded me of a lemon
Talwin: Inspects Craigh for Gills
TMO (Craigh): (no)
Raelynn: Sweetie, did you sleep well?
BOB and see Michael, that is how you recover from an IC/ OOC faux pau
BOB Grins
Michael (Talwin): lol
Lemon: Someone at the pool is blasting "we dont' talk about bruno" and I'm not even upset about it
Warm smile with Rae
N'laea: Gills? You are breathing air.
Talwin: Listen to it a few hundred times and "7 foot frame, rats along his back, when he calls your name, it all turns to black" starts to get really old really fast Lemon
Michael (Talwin): Listen to it a few hundred times and "7 foot frame, rats along his back, when he calls your name, it all turns to black" starts to get really old really fast Lemon
Michael (Talwin): DAMMIT
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Craigh: They can't do both?
Lemon: It really, really doesn't
Lemon: That's my favorite part
Michael (Talwin): HAHAH
N'laea: It would be odd.
Michael (Talwin): :D
TMO (Craigh): Bruno wasn't even the best song of the movie
N'laea: I do not believe there are things that breath both. Nothing natural, at least.
Michael (Talwin): Which was?!
Lemon: Agreed, but it IS catchy
Lemon: It doesn't need to be the best to be good
TMO (Craigh): Pressure
Michael (Talwin): That was like, the one I actually enjoyed until my neices beat it into submission
Lemon: Surface Pressure is objectively the best
Lorie (Licornah): (Pressure Drop)
Lorie (Licornah): (Team Luisa)
Michael (Talwin): To Spotify to refresh my memory!
TMO (Craigh): thx Lemon, couldn't actually remember the real title
Craigh: Oh. Well, maybe that would have been nice. Maybe. I never learned how to swim.
Raelynn: Now's the time!
Lemon: I may have listened to those songs on repeat a million times, and obsessed over the voice artist of Luisa
Michael (Talwin): Oh boy. I forgot about that one. Huh. Well, I guess I like that one too guys :) lol
Raelynn: Is there anything you do want to do or are you just wanting to adjust in peace for now?
Talwin: Yeah bud, what can we do? What do YOU want us to do?
Raelynn: There's a lot of building about to happen, Zayden wants to do concerts, you could swim in the moat... so much!
Raelynn: Maybe learn some magic?
Craigh: perks up a bit.
Licornah: You could come hang out with me...there is fieldwork and animals to chat with
Craigh: Magic seems to be easier than I remember it being, at least.
Talwin: Yeah bud, what can we do? What do YOU want us to do?
Licornah: Enjoy the moonlight...
Raelynn: That's what you said you wanted to do, right? And you have a big library here to learn from!
Raelynn: And it isn't in Hell!
Licornah: Hope for a Unicorn sighting...
Raelynn: But a NORMAL place!
Michael (Talwin): Er, that wasn't me saying that
Licornah: There's a death fog around us... not exactly normal.
Michael (Talwin): Cough. Ulrik
Carissa (Raelynn): (who is Ulrik????)
Carissa (Raelynn): (still waiting for this reveal)
Michael (Talwin): His picture quoted me a second a go
Raelynn: Death fog? It hasn't caused any death. It's just a little misty.
Lorie (Licornah): (Is he Swedish? Norweigan? Danish? )
TMO (Craigh): yeah, that's confusing Michael
Michael (Talwin): No he's on the Character Pane
Carissa (Raelynn): (yes I know that but I don't know who he is or why his character is up there or anything...)
Michael (Talwin): ah, sorry
Lorie (Licornah): (oh...he's probably Dutch, I missed the spelling of the last name)
Michael (Talwin): He's the Stormcloak leader. Oh wait, that was Ulfrik
Carissa (Raelynn): (is it a Michael character or a new player or what? I can wait for a reveal, just saying I'm clueless :) )
Craigh: looks at his hands.
Carissa (Raelynn): Ulfric the Traitor
Michael (Talwin): (not mine)
BOB I told you I had something for Rae later on
Carissa (Raelynn): (oooh okay so after Craigh got it)
Michael (Talwin): (Savior of Skyrim!)
Carissa (Raelynn): (I can be patience mostly)
Lemon: Oh god, I hope it's a better suitor than Yout
Carissa (Raelynn): (Skyrim Scum!)
Lorie (Licornah): (Ulrik has been there a while...afk)
Craigh: If Sehanine made me like this, do you think it's a challenge I'm supposed to overcome, learn to live with, or is it just a prank?
Michael (Talwin): (Nords Forever!)
BOB Did you not see the AI complilation that said Youtargrim was comforting and kind?
Carissa (Raelynn): (LOL no not yet but he has been very good to her)
Raelynn: Hmm...
Lorie (Licornah): (If our name is Raelynn maybe...)
Lemon: Look, AI still has flaws, we all know this
BOB lol
BOB Quote
Bixi Fizzlebang: She doesn't seem like a prankster to me
Raelynn: Well, she's never come across as a prankster to me. That's not really her thing? And I still don't think she is after meeting her.
Raelynn: Mysterious, yes.
N'laea: And motherly. Take that as you will.
Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't think it's a challenge, either. I think you're legitimately physically way more impressive and interesting now
Raelynn: Well MY mother is fabulous.
Carissa (N'laea): OH!!
N'laea: [SKILL] Veterinary Healing [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 1] [d20 = 11]
N'laea: checks Craigh for mange as per request
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): haahahhahah
N'laea: And healthy if different.
TMO (Craigh): nope, his skin is definitely multiple colors and textures in no real pattern
Raelynn: (well it ain't mange so you might need a rare disease doctor)
Lorie (Licornah): (He's got a technocolor dreamcoat!)
Bixi Fizzlebang: He's a rainbow merman
Michael (Talwin): (Slow down there Joseph)
Carissa (Raelynn): Rae loves rainbows and multicolors....
TMO (Craigh): dreamskin
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ooc but it works
Raelynn: Oh! I do love rainbows!
Carissa (Raelynn): (there we go)
TMO (Craigh): browns and grays, sorry, no rainbos
TMO (Craigh): boring drab colors
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): And that was only because my fingers went too fast! I pushed the enter and the alt at the sameish time, but one was faster
Talwin: Hm. Well, we can get Bixi to make your skin liook glittery I guess
Bixi Fizzlebang: That's Rae's expertise
Talwin: Shrugs
Bixi Fizzlebang: I AM hoping to find some ways to make my own glitter, though. As a supplier to Rae
Talwin: You guys are in cahoots enough it makes no difference to me
Raelynn: And I'd be happy to! No one will think about the rest of you if all they see is glitter!
Raelynn: grins at Talwin
Craigh: chuckles and shakes his head.
Carissa (Raelynn): (I did get glitterbombed by my dryer this week - I blame Bixi)
BOB Glitter is Evil
Raelynn: Remember, it's a lotion loved by dragons. So you'll look as fabulous as an ancient red dragon.
BOB and I did post a link in the Discord to the "glitter" dice that one of the developers said
Carissa (Raelynn): (my mistake for not realizing the pile of fabrics someone gave me contained one that was almost pure glitter....)
BOB when I referenced that I thought there were rainbow and glitter dice in the pipeline
Craigh: Sure. I guess we can give it a try.
Raelynn: is clearly very, VERY excited.
Raelynn: I'll get right on it!
Raelynn: A glittering, rainbow merman. How lovely.
Craigh: *scared whistle*
Raelynn: Hmm, I wonder if we could incorporate your new whistling into some singing, too...
Youtargim: Cautiously looks around Craigh.... Do you have a tail now?
Raelynn: I'll have to consult with Zayden.
Craigh: No tail. Fortunately. I'm glad I don't have to relearn how to sit.
Youtargim: It would make it easy to know if you are happy I suppose
Raelynn: He can still smile.
Raelynn: That's usually a good indicator.
Youtargim: Talk Less, Smile More...
Youtargim: I have heard that somewhere
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Less talkie more workie... oh wait, sorry, that was two jobs ago
Raelynn: Whoever said that must hate noise.
Licornah: (frowns... Sir please0
BOB grins
Raelynn: And if you try telling N'laea to smile, she might punch you.
Raelynn: rubs her shoulder slightly
Lorie (Licornah): (as long as you don't turn Burr, you're probably fine)
Youtargim: Fools that run their mouth wind up dead
Craigh: nods
Youtargim: Very glad I can be here with friends
Craigh: I didn't expect that when I came here. It's weird.
Raelynn: Didn't expect what?
Craigh: Friends.
Youtargim: No one expects... ahh Craigh, everyone knows your name
Raelynn: Why wouldn't you expect friends?
Raelynn: Every stranger is just a friend you haven't made yet!
Craigh: You wouldn't last long in the Guild.
Raelynn: smiles
Licornah: Or a portion of a lich's soul...but yes, sure
Raelynn: And that is why I'm in a temple.
Youtargim: So it hasn't been your day, your month.....
Raelynn: Not thinking you can make friends is how you get eaten by a dragon.
Thinking
Talwin: Sides Eyes Rae, but chooses not to go down that road again
TMO (Craigh): (if no one has made the link, btw, Voldemort was a lich. Horcruxes are phylacteries)
Licornah: (yup yup yup... )
Michael (Talwin): (I did actually, at which everyone got mad at me)
Carissa (Raelynn): (you know she has a point :P)
Michael (Talwin): (then again, my mother had no idea what a lich was at the time, so)
Craigh: Thinking the people around you are friends is how you get duped and backstabbed when you live on the streets.
Youtargim: We need to get back to work Bixi
Craigh: Just pointing out the differences.
Michael (Talwin): Although, that was a LOT of phylacteries when you think about it. Dammit TMO, I did not need to thinka bout this right now!
Raelynn: shrugs
Raelynn: Everyone is allowed their own world view, but I prefer mine.
Youtargim: You wanted that stable built by tomorrow's rains
Craigh: So do I.
Raelynn: Otherwise you'd be a lot more lonely.
Craigh: But I wasn't living in yours.
Raelynn: smiles
Raelynn: But you are now! I'm glad we're friends no matter what you look like.,
Talwin: Nods vehemently
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Are we at the inn?

BOB No but yes
BOB outside of the Inn
BOB as going in and out of The Mist causes issues

Raelynn: With glitter!
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Or no?
BOB so you are building your place in Hourglass, the town where the Inn is but not inside of the courtyard of the Inn, there is not room for you to build there
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yes, I got all that
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Where is the currect conversation happening, in the physical world.
Michael (Talwin): You know what they say bob. When you can build out, you build down and up :)
BOB Just to be clear good, so yes conversations are happening in Hourglass
Michael (Talwin): The first ever Skyscraper will be the Lost Eagle Tower!
BOB chuckles, I do not think so, but you can do that someplace else

BOB 8 months go by of work on building new places
BOB Craigh learning spells
User is back. (TMO)

Lorie (Licornah): (we're off the next two Fridays though...)
BOB not big bad horrible combat, just simple taking care of home sort of things
TMO (Craigh): so learning the spell is instantaneous, and the time is all in copying the spell? Using the Copy spell gets around that I believe, so he can have all his spells as fast as he can Copy
Carissa (Raelynn): Actually, let TMO know as the elected treasurer
TMO (Craigh): ?
Carissa (Raelynn): Ahh okay
Carissa (Raelynn): Nevermind, treasurer. Got back to treasuring.

BOB I think that Licornah might have a comment about Tenure before Talwin gets carried away
Carissa (Raelynn): Well Bob did ask if we wanted to upgrade his residence. I need to see if it was included in the cost. And if so, we need to adjust that but I can worry about it later
Michael (Talwin): What could it be? Keep publishing or you lose Tenure?
Michael (Talwin): (Talwin's residence?)
Lorie (Licornah): Nope... nothing here, carry on. I'm just watching

Michael (Talwin): Why are you sorry? I was just clarifying. Was trying to figure out which building we are talking about currently
BOB Let us do some more of the roleplaying to build up what the Tea shop/ match making/ fortune telling is
Raelynn: No that's good. We can maybe combine them later.
TMO (Craigh): Bob - you mentioned something about Parcels once when I asked about spellbooks. Is that a thing I should try out to see if I can build them? Or just ignore it for now and go about it in other ways?

Carissa (Raelynn): ouchhh
Licornah: :: nods :: it does look inviting
Sundown: I do not like the Inn
TMO (Craigh): I assume that means he can't try again until 8th level. Since he isn't going up the ranks from 1 to 7, but is starting there from scratch
Sundown: Too much sun
Bixi Fizzlebang: That's a great idea! I mean, I have a huge garden, but it's just for growing, definitely not a meeting place
BOB yes to TMO
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): knocks on the door
Raelynn: Still not used to it? Your nose has been in the books too long Sundown.

Sundown: Looks around what?

Ulrik Ekenberg: Of course, that's obviously what I meant.
Youtargim: Looks at Bixi, are you doing your magic?
Youtargim: OH is that Craigh?
Raelynn: Of course!
Raelynn: Sit down, we'll brew it up.
Ulrik Ekenberg: Nervously looks around, practically thows himself into a chiar
Raelynn: And my fortune telling is of the astrological kind so you'll need patience while I do your star chart.
Carissa (Raelynn): (okay but... if you're the dru I'm thinking...)
Ulrik Ekenberg: Uh... oh, of course. Certainly, I knew that, and would expect nothing less.
Raelynn: I hope it's comfy! Get cozy.
Raelynn: Yout, dear, can you get all his birth information for me? Like we went over before?
TMO (Craigh): I'm not going to pick out any offensive spells yet.
Youtargim: efinately
Carissa (Raelynn): (I'm offended)
Youtargim: So ummm, Who are you?
Ulrik Ekenberg: fidgets, before forcing his hands into his lap
Pulls out a paper an a quill
Raelynn: goes to brew tea while listening
Licornah: :: squints at him... ::
Ulrik Ekenberg: Ulrik... Ulrik Ekenberg... of the Stormblanket Society

Raelynn: shrugs and pushes it towards him, takes away the tray with milk and sugar.
Raelynn: If you want an accurate forunate, yes.
Youtargim: You will not get as lucky as I did but you can hope
Raelynn: Oh and timing! The more information you have, the more accurate I can be.
Ulrik Ekenberg: I'm from Likainen maatila
Ulrik Ekenberg: deflates at the admission
Youtargim: I bet he made that up
Raelynn: Well that's a mouthful.
Youtargim: Trying to confuse you
TMO (Craigh): continual light
Craigh: [CHECK] Learn Spell (vs. Target 85) [SUCCESS by 56] [d100 = 29]
Youtargim: Testing your skills
Raelynn: Hmm, maybe. We can see what the stars say.
Ulrik Ekenberg: puffs up indignantly
Raelynn: The stars don't lie.
Ulrik Ekenberg: I would not lie about such a thing
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Likainen maatila is Finnish for dirt farm)
Raelynn: Good! I would hope not. Bad way to start a fortune!
BOB The Stars might lie but the numbers never do... I fell lucky
Bixi Fizzlebang: Is it near... where are you from again, Licornah? Silverloon?
Ulrik Ekenberg: Squints in confusion at the names

Raelynn: Wow, that's far. How did you end up here?
Licornah: No
Licornah: Silverymoon
Ulrik Ekenberg: Oh, you know, life of an adventurer. You travel far in pursuit of glory

Ulrik Ekenberg: Dan...gerous dragons...? And... pure maidens...?
Ulrik Ekenberg: 3.... no, 5!!
Raelynn: Mmhmm, go on. What kind of dragons? Did you marry the maidens? What were their names?
Sundown: 5 Maidens is impressive
Raelynn: I just love fairytales!
Ulrik Ekenberg: pulling at his collar and looking around nervously
Bixi Fizzlebang: I would have concerned if you married 5 "pure maidens"
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): concerns*
TMO (Craigh): water breathing (in case of emergency, try to keep your head above water long enough to cast this spell)
Raelynn: Oh! Drink your tea before it gets cold! Although it's still good cold. Oh, I suppose I should have asked if you wanted it iced? Sorry, first day jitters!

Carissa (Raelynn): (no rush, we can keep it going however long)
Raelynn: nods
Raelynn: Did you fall in love with her?
Youtargim: Everyone falls in love with you
Raelynn: WAIT! Was she a dragon AND one of the maidens you mentioned??
Bixi Fizzlebang: get a room
Raelynn: smiles and winks at Yout
Ulrik Ekenberg: Yes, sad story... One I.. uh... don't like to talk about, unfortunately.
Ulrik Ekenberg: But one that definitely happened!!
Raelynn: Oh, yes. Sorry. Sometimes I pry too much.
N'laea: Yes.
Sundown: I imagine you used your tremendous spear to slay the maiden
Raelynn: sends a small glare to N'laea
Ulrik Ekenberg: No, no... you are fine... just.... memories, you know..?
Raelynn: Memories? OH! How old are you? Need it for my charts, you know.
Ulrik Ekenberg: 17... I mean, 23
Youtargim: HEH,

Raelynn: Hmm, I don't know....?
TMO (Craigh): (it's not permanent)
Raelynn: Okay! So what exactly are you looking for in your fortune, Ulrik?
Raelynn: Gets up, goes to grab some star charts, and comes back and sets them on the table.
Raelynn: Gets up, goes to grab some star charts, and comes back and sets them on the table.
TMO (Craigh): (Craigh is not present in a meeting with strangers, unless I'm actively paying attention, which I'm not. :P )
Youtargim: Is fascinated by this idea, Craigh, are you 1? 20? how old are you now that you are newly alive again
Ulrik Ekenberg: glances around conspiratively
Ulrik Ekenberg: in a near-whisper
Youtargim: (Just muttering to himself)
Raelynn: Now if you want just a quick look, I can help, but if you want something more indepth it'll take time.
Ulrik Ekenberg: Will I become famous?
Raelynn: nods to that.
Licornah: :: listening, not wanting to interrupt ::
Raelynn: It's very possible. But I can only look so far out. Let's see.

Raelynn: Oh! If you're around when Zayden shows up he'd be happy to go fishing with you!
Raelynn: Monster or normal!
Raelynn: He both fished AND killed a giant monster catfish once!
Ulrik Ekenberg: Oh, uh.... normal.... Actually...
Raelynn: Um, will a little help, but that's okay! It's good to ask for help!
Ulrik Ekenberg: I... may... have been mistakenly called it a monster
Raelynn: nods
Youtargim: Now that Craigh is a merman, does that mean you are going to take his voice?
Raelynn: Fish can look pretty monsterous. But I'm not a fisherman.
Raelynn: What?
TMO (Craigh): craigh shows up with a spear through his side - "I was *trying out* my new Water Breathing spell!!!"
Youtargim: You need to pay, glancing over at Ulrik
Ulrik Ekenberg: bolts up in alarm at the guy with a spear in him
Youtargim: When the last person did not pay... he was turned into a merman
TMO (Craigh): that was OOC bob
Raelynn: Where are you heading to after this?
Licornah: :: ponders :: Fishing...
Raelynn: glances over confused.
TMO (Craigh): Ulrik is hallucinating. What was in that tea?
Youtargim pushes over the tip jar to Rae
Ulrik Ekenberg: blinks, looks around
Raelynn: Ooh, sorry. That might be Bixi playing with her magic. You're a little jumpy, Ulrik. Maybe you need more tea?
Ulrik Ekenberg: I could have sworn...
Carissa (Raelynn): (secret ingredient)
Raelynn: I have a calming brew...
Ulrik Ekenberg: Yes, more caffeinated tea is what I need to settle my nerves. Thank you.
TMO (Craigh): charm person roll
Carissa (Raelynn): (lol)
Craigh: [CHECK] Learn Spell (vs. Target 85) [SUCCESS by 81] [d100 = 4]
Raelynn: is excited to be serving more tea.
Raelynn: One second! Let me go brew another cup up.
BOB As Bixi sleeps in the background
BOB wink
Michael (Talwin): Okay. I just read all of this and am so very confrused on what the hell is going on.....
Carissa (N'laea): (sleep walking and magiking)
Ulrik Ekenberg: sits back down
TMO (Craigh): invisibility check
Carissa (N'laea): (Ulrik is visiting and got a fortune)
Craigh: [CHECK] Learn Spell (vs. Target 85) [SUCCESS by 37] [d100 = 48]
N'laea: How did you hear about this place?
BOB See Michael, that easy
Michael (Talwin): (do we know who he is?)
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Well, Michael, clearly Ulrik of the Stormblanket Society is a famouse hero who is gracing your teahouse in between killing and marrying dragon maidens)
Carissa (N'laea): (I got sneaking suspicions, but otherwise no, he is a new PC)
Michael (Talwin): (no bob, I'm asking who our new player is...unless this is you controlling him)
BOB Who me?
BOB pulling strings?
Carissa (N'laea): (okay just tell me - is that you Ryan?!)
Michael (Talwin): (yeah, I probably like you whoever is doing it, but I am pretty blunt. Sorry bud/gal, you'll get used to it)
N'laea: (suspense!!)
Michael (Talwin): And I knew this was a Skryrim Reference. I want a consolation prize!
TMO (Craigh): monster summoning I check
Ulrik Ekenberg: (I've been known by many names. I think I went by Ryan once upon a time)
N'laea: You are a bit ...jumpy to have faced one dragon let alone multiple.
N'laea: (YAYYYYY WELCOME BACK!!!!)
Michael (Talwin): Excellent. And welcome back :)
Craigh: [CHECK] Learn Spell (vs. Target 85) [SUCCESS by 79] [d100 = 6]
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Thanks, all. Good to be back)
Michael (Talwin): I can't wait for you to meet Sharif
BOB Lorie and Lemon do not know who Ryan is
TMO (Craigh): (got very lucky there - first roll missed the chat window, was a 97, but didn't count. :) )
Michael (Talwin): lol
Michael (Talwin): :)
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Appreciate the warm welcome for this totally experienced adventurer who will definitely not die to the first goblin that he meets)
TMO (Craigh): Welcome back Ryan
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Thank ye)
Carissa (N'laea): (introduced to us from Spring, excellent RPer and all around guy)
Carissa (N'laea): lol
Michael (Talwin): You can always hide behind us for the goblins :)
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Also, Lemon and Lorie, I'm not really anyone worth knowing so you haven't lost out on anything)
Michael (Talwin): Great to have you though, seriously.
Lorie (Licornah): (Do you know SPC or Kier?)
Michael (Talwin): Ouch? I think you are worth knowing
Carissa (N'laea): (I dunno, add his old character to one Thistle loved to pick on)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I was not sleeping! I am making earrings.
Lorie (Licornah): (or Wlofie .. sorry SPC = Sean)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Welcome, person I don't know yet!
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Glad to be here. Been a weird and rocky two years but things are finally settling down enough that I'd love to be a regular again [assuming Bob doesn't kick me out after tonight])
BOB LOL
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Or rather, I guess, welcome back, person I didn't used to know!
Michael (Talwin): lol
N'laea: (it's okay, if he does we'll kick Bob out which will be VERY awkward but we'll manage)
Ulrik Ekenberg: (GRIN)
Carissa (N'laea): (shoot I'm messing up with IC now too)
Michael (Talwin): What was it you said bob? Players come and they go....
Michael (Talwin): then comeback
Michael (Talwin): :D
BOB grins Once a Dragonslayer Always a Dragonslayer
Carissa (N'laea): with a super experienced PC of course
Carissa (N'laea): (which N'laea is now questioning because she is not nice like Rae)
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Ulrik of the Stormblanket Society will totally not cry like a baby under N'laea's harsh questioning)
BOB But you still have questions for this visiting adventurer wanting free fortunes and tea while he visits town
Carissa (N'laea): LOL
Michael (Talwin): Well when you meet Talwin, he's kind of gruff, annoyed, and usually not in the mood for bullshit, but once he gets to know you can handle moderate amounts of it :) Pretend Bixi said it.....
N'laea: You just do not seem like one who has faced a dragon.
BOB Talwin is there
Michael (Talwin): No way.
BOB at least can be there now
Carissa (N'laea): (still teashop grandopening)
Michael (Talwin): Did he hear the entire exchange?
BOB He is there to track down Sundown, etc.
Carissa (N'laea): (sure)
Ulrik Ekenberg: Uh.... how.. :: cough, deeper voice :: Exactly how many dragonslayers have you met, exactly?
TMO (Craigh): confusion check
N'laea: This group calls themselves such so many.
Michael (Talwin): Talwin stands in a corner, tea cup forgotten in horrified facsination at this wagon-wreck in slow motion
Craigh: [CHECK] Learn Spell (vs. Target 85) [SUCCESS by 49] [d100 = 36]
N'laea: Although Raelynn prefers to befriend them.
Talwin: Talwin stands in a corner, tea cup forgotten in horrified facsination at this wagon-wreck in slow motion
Ulrik Ekenberg: Wait, what? Dragon...slayers...? You're the Dragonsl..... Oh, oh dear....
Michael (Talwin): Looks back and forth between Ulrik and N'laea, as if watching a ball match
Talwin: Looks back and forth between Ulrik and N'laea, as if watching a ball match
N'laea: Yes?
Ulrik Ekenberg: sits with his head between his knees for a few minutes, then sits up as if nothing happened
Talwin: Leans in slightly
Ulrik Ekenberg: Excellent. Always good to meet fellow dragonslayers
N'laea: A slayer of dragons yourself should be in good company. If your stories are true.
N'laea: nods slowly
Ulrik Ekenberg: O-of course.... Excellent company... Assuming YOU have slain dragons
N'laea: And what do you slain with?
Ulrik Ekenberg: My wit, usually
Talwin: Two that we know of, one that I don't
Carissa (N'laea): *slay
Ulrik Ekenberg: Sometimes my cutting remarks
N'laea: Ah. That explains much.
Ulrik Ekenberg: O-oh.... Yes, haha.... almost as many... as... me....
Michael (Talwin): (actually Ryan, memory fades me, but I think you were with us on one of those)
N'laea: And what else have you slain?
Michael (Talwin): (not as Ulrik, but time goes fast in my mind)
Ulrik Ekenberg: wilts under the scrutiny
Carissa (N'laea): (dragon turtle)
Ulrik Ekenberg: Stuff.... a bunch of monsters...
Michael (Talwin): (Snaps finger. Thank you Carissa)
Ulrik Ekenberg: sullen
Carissa (N'laea): (saved Tiberius and Indigo from become steamed meat)
Michael (Talwin): (lost a mans best friend to if I recall. I still cry)
N'laea: Ranger? Paladin? Farmer's boy?
Carissa (N'laea): (yes :()
Ulrik Ekenberg: ....
Ulrik Ekenberg: ...
Ulrik Ekenberg: ...
TMO (Craigh): suggestion check
Raelynn: returns with a calming tea blend and sets it down.
Raelynn: N'laea! Be nice!
Ulrik Ekenberg: ...Fine, listen, maybe I am not as experienced as you...
Craigh: [CHECK] Learn Spell (vs. Target 85) [SUCCESS by 7] [d100 = 78]
Ulrik Ekenberg: But I will be! The fortune said so!
N'laea: holds up a hand to Raelynn to listen.
N'laea: That you will be experienced?
Ulrik Ekenberg: And someday, everyone is going to know the name of Ulrik Ekenburg of the Stormblanket Societ
Ulrik Ekenberg: *Society
N'laea: You do not need a fortune for that.
Youtargim: Looks at Rae, As you wish
Raelynn: To be famous! And he will be!
Raelynn: I know my star charts!
Talwin: I did though N'laea. If he wan'ts a job, the Protectorate is hiring
Talwin: Turns
N'laea: shrugs
Talwin: Give honest skill set
Talwin: No bullshit
Talwin: We'll get you with us in no time
Ulrik Ekenberg: gives a mulish look, then sighs
N'laea: Hire who you want. If it is only a fortune he wanted, he has it. If he wants more, though, he must be blunt.
Talwin: Grins
TMO (Craigh): alright, that's enough spells for tonight. I need to spend some time considering what kind of offense fits him. I suppose part of that is how common people react to him the first time they see him. Running away, crying in terror, or trying to burn him at the stake. ;) Which is it Bob? :P
Ulrik Ekenberg: I've fought off a few wolves. Handy with a spear, and have my great-grandpa's triden that's magic.
Talwin: I take your fortunes seriously
Talwin: Great!
'Shislif' connected
Ulrik Ekenberg: *trident
BOB Smiles with TMO that remains to be seen I suppose
Talwin: Welcome aboard. Although don't flash the Trident at Craigh for awhile
Raelynn: A trident! Like a mermaid??
BOB Hello Sharif
Ulrik Ekenberg: Merman.... I think
Carissa (Raelynn): (LOL)
Raelynn: Oh that's so exciting!
Michael (Talwin): OH MY GOD THE STARS HAVE ALIGNED. Say Hi to Ryan, Sharif!
Michael (Talwin): (Ulrik)
Raelynn: That's definitely fame ready material!
TMO (Craigh): ah, forgot a 1st. Janne's Impressive Demeanor check
Craigh: [CHECK] Learn Spell (vs. Target 85) [SUCCESS by 3] [d100 = 82]
TMO (Craigh): ...barely
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Hello!)
Sharif: hi everybody
Carissa (Raelynn): (FG is weird, sometimes gotta give it a minute for someone to see chat)
Sharif: lil laggy may need to restart
Carissa (Raelynn): (Hi Sharif!)
Talwin: We all start somewhere Ulrik. I think you might be more experienced then you give yourself credit
Carissa (Raelynn): (and Sharif is Zayden)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I do not understand this. Is he ACTUALLY a merman?
Raelynn: Are you staying in town? Wandering? Trying to find a place?
Lorie (Licornah): (Evening Sharif)
Carissa (Raelynn): (lol no but he corrected her from mermaid)
Sharif: evening :)
Ulrik Ekenberg: nods, but gives a stinkeye to N'laea
N'laea: is unmoved.
Sharif: eh seems ok now i'll stay
Raelynn: You know we just built this place up. We've done lots of adventuring, faced real dragons, and all!
Michael (Talwin): it took a moment to load up for me as well bud. I think it was the modules but should be stable now
Ulrik Ekenberg: I'm trying to find a place.... Was laid up for a while from... mist sicknes...? And burned through most of my money. If there is work, I'd be grateful
Zayden: yea it got better thx
Shislif (Zayden): OOc
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Can't type, blah)
Raelynn: Are you really from... where you said? The Mist takes some getting used to.
Carissa (Raelynn): (welcome back to the club!)
Bixi Fizzlebang: Is it really farther than silverynoon?
Talwin: Well frankly Ulrik, we all have our day jobs, but our money comes from all the weird crap we do when odd problems pop up here and there.
Raelynn: hears the bells at the door
Ulrik Ekenberg: I have no idea where Silverynoon is...
Raelynn: OH! Zayden is that you?
Zayden: Hey Rae! I certainly hope so
Raelynn: Are you here for the grand opening of the tea shop?
Raelynn: Perfect timing! Zayden, this is Ulrik. He also likes to fish!
Zayden: Of course I wouldn't miss an opening, especially a grand one
N'laea: And lie./
Talwin: I recommend the Black tea Zayden
Talwin: Highly
Ulrik Ekenberg: waves, then freezes at N'laea's comment
Raelynn: glares at N'laea
Bixi Fizzlebang: Who among us hasn't lied?
Talwin: Raises fine china glass in salute, pinky finger in the air
Zayden: Hey Ulrik nice to meet you, always a pleasure to meet another fisherman
Raelynn: Fanciful stories. Not really lying. Just... embellishing.
Raelynn: Let me go grab you some tea, Zayden.
Ulrik Ekenberg: A pleasure
Zayden: ohhh thank you Rae, what kind of tea?
BOB Rae leaves the room and everyone goes quiet starting at each other until
Raelynn: sets down a mug
Michael (Talwin): until what!
Raelynn: Very dark black tea. Yout says it reminds him the most of... coffee? Or something?
Zayden coughs
Raelynn: Oh! I forgot...
Raelynn: goes to the back room so Bob's scene setting makes sense
Zayden: Ohhh thank you that sounds Delightfun
Youtargim: Good strong coffee
TMO (Craigh): this tea room is nowhere near bran's library, right?
Carissa (N'laea): Nope, Hourglass.
BOB correct several miles away but Craigh can show up easily, it is the grand opening day
Carissa (N'laea): But we keep referencing Craigh and it's grand opening so Craigh has to be there
TMO (Craigh): he'd hate to ruin the Grand Opening
Michael (Talwin): sigh
TMO (Craigh): ruin everyone's appetite. :)
Carissa (N'laea): And Rae would tell him he'll ruin it by NOT showing up
TMO (Craigh): chuckle
Carissa (N'laea): She's okay if he's swathed in blankets and cloak
Carissa (N'laea): But he has to show like a real FRIEND
Michael (Talwin): The dude gave his life for the gang and he's worried he might make our appettite go away.
TMO (Craigh): I'll be right on - got a quick thing to do IRL
User has gone AFK. (TMO)
BOB See Rae leaves the room and everyone goes quiet staring at each other until..... a mysterious cloaked stranger enters the room
BOB Who turns out to be very quiet
User is back. (TMO)
Talwin: Right on cue
Talwin: Mutters
TMO (Craigh): I guess I'm here now then if Bob is going to Cue me like that. :P
BOB grins
Carissa (N'laea): (lol that or he's going to pull out a new NPC)
BOB you have enough for now
Carissa (N'laea): lol
Michael (Talwin): Oh my god. Are you leaving us with a three week cliffhanger?
Carissa (N'laea): no it's Craigh
Michael (Talwin): oh whew
N'laea: That is a look.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): it's too early for a cliffhanger
TMO (Craigh): hmmm... might be worth a try
Michael (Talwin): (yeah, wasn't going to bve too happy lol)
TMO (Craigh): oh, nevermind. durations are too short
Carissa (N'laea): lol agree
Ulrik Ekenberg: eyes the menu speculatively
Ulrik Ekenberg: Mouth on Fire...?
TMO (Craigh): was going to Alter Self or Polymorph Self for safety
N'laea: It is good.
Sundown: Bixi are you going to make the scones?
Shislif (Zayden): brb bio break
Craigh: limps in using a walking stick and moves over to an empty table.
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
Talwin: N'laea, could I pay for a pound of this? And another pound of honey for sweetener? I think you've outdone yourself
N'laea: What?
Talwin: Picks up a glass and a small bowl of honey and brings it over to Craigh
Talwin: Gently sits next to him
Talwin: Gently sits next to him
Talwin: You'll like it promise!
Talwin: Whispers
Talwin: Needs lots of honey though
TMO (Craigh): BOBBB! Talwin is narrating again!
Sundown: Sundown walks over with Talwin
Carissa (N'laea): lol
Michael (Talwin): Oh god. What am I doing wrong? I'm seperating actions, OOC, and iC right????
TMO (Craigh): originally typed that with multiple O's instead of B's, but it gave entirely the wrong impression
Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm sorry, who are you again, Sunny?
Sundown: Glances back at Bixi, I am the Guardian of the Protectorate, I serve Governor Snee
Michael (Talwin): Oh I see which one I messed up. Sorry LOL
Bixi Fizzlebang: And why do you think I make scones?
Sundown: I work with Talwin to protect the Estate
Craigh: leans his stick against the table and takes the cup, and raises it up under his cloak to sniff it.
N'laea: He is.... was.... with Brer Necholas.
Craigh: Ahh... Thanks. Smells good.
Sundown: Because you are here, you have not seemed to do anything, and Jilly typically makes the food to go along with the drinks
Sundown: you are like Jilly aren't you?
Bixi Fizzlebang: No one is like Jilly except Jilly
Carissa (N'laea): (you'll love Sundrop, he's SUPER black and white in his thinking)
Carissa (N'laea): (no sarcasm there at all, don't worry)
TMO (Craigh): and I would like to state for the record that even though Sundown started as my character's sidekick, I had *nothing* to do with creating his personality. That's all Bob. :D
Sundown: So that means you are not a good cook then?
Talwin: Explains to Craigh in hushed voices the latest member to come to the group.
Talwin: She's a glitter cook
Talwin: Calls out
Carissa (N'laea): very stereotypical paladin (in training)
TMO (Craigh): now failed
Bixi Fizzlebang: I am a great cook. I am not a baker.
BOB Former Paladin
Carissa (Raelynn): we did like him enough to bring him back to life but that killed his stats so he couldn't become a paladin anymore
Sundown: So if you are a great cook, then what are you serving?
Talwin: Whispers to Craigh
TMO (Craigh): are these memorizations actually showing up in chat, or just for me?
Talwin: I think I remember why I like being away on Protectorate business so much
BOB Just to you TMO
TMO (Craigh): oh, phew
BOB rolls show up in chat but the character sheet manipulations are hidden
Lorie (Licornah): (former, with an alignment change, because otherwise, not possible LOL )
Carissa (Raelynn): (he lost CON)
BOB He died, came back and lost a Con point which reduced him below Paladin status
Craigh -> Talwin: I actually do need a quick summary of Ulrik - I was actually *not* paying attention
BOB It was a scene
Raelynn: goes to see what Rae is up to and returns with some tea, sets it down for Ulrik.
TMO (Craigh): very dramatic and heart-rending
BOB and yes to Michael, explain to Zayden and Criagh
N'laea: goes to see what Rae is up to and returns with some tea, sets it down for Ulrik.
Talwin -> Craigh: Basically, it's Ryan. His character put on Bravado, got a fortune, got called out by Talwin, and was hired
N'laea: I told her you wanted to try the Mouth On Fire. She is busy trying to get your charts lined up nicer.
Craigh -> Talwin: but who is the character? :)
BOB Chuckles with Michael, you should say that out loud for everyone to see
N'laea: An adventurer like you can handle it I am certain.
Ulrik Ekenberg: Thank you
Ulrik Ekenberg: _takes a sip, spits it out_
Ulrik Ekenberg: takes a sip, spits it out
Bixi Fizzlebang: This isn't my shop, why would I be cooking?
N'laea: quietly goes to grab the milk and sets it on the table for him
N'laea: clearly judging him
Ulrik Ekenberg: coughs violently
Carissa (N'laea): (damn she's vicious sometimes, sorry)
Sundown: Then what are you doing here? you are not drinking, you are not helping customers, you are not being nice to people
Ulrik Ekenberg: Uru..... Ugu....
Talwin -> Craigh: Oh. Ulfrik. We don't know too much about him to be honest. He was low on money after recoivering from mist sickness. Specific question? I might be able to answer, but he was pretty vague. He's good with a spear, and has a magic Trident. We told him to hide the Trident from Craigh for awhile though :)
N'laea: The same as you, Sundown.
Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm here at Rae's request
Ulrik Ekenberg: T-tastes.... good....
Licornah: :: listens and wonders if Sundown should be hired as a bouncer ::
Craigh: chuckles dryly as he watches Ulrik at the other table.
Sundown: I am here to report to Talwin, this is the first time he has been free from helping assist you all in building your new homes
N'laea: I can let her know you want a refill?
Ulrik Ekenberg: M-maybe... could use... some milk... in it..?
N'laea: pushes the milk closer to him silently
Ulrik Ekenberg: dumps the tea in the milk and starts drinking it... slowly
Sundown: Looks over at N'laea what tea is that ?
N'laea: Mouth on Fire. It has a nice bite to it.
Sundown: Nods, May I have some?
Craigh: carefully sips his own tea under his cowl.
Lorie (Licornah): Agua Diente is better ;)
N'laea: tsks and goes to grab him some, wondering how she got stuck as server.
Ulrik Ekenberg: (I like Harney and Sons selection of black teas myself)
Sundown: (points to Bixi)
N'laea: Perhaps you can tell the new guest about this area.
Talwin: As long as he has no outstanding warrant which we will investigate, and not being a nuiscance, he's been tantatively hired by the Protectorate. Others have been coming as well Sundown. We can at least give him a chance. One more hand is one task you might need help with. Also pick a pound of your favorite tea. I've set aside funds for it. I recommend you pick up some honey as well, but that's personal preference
Carissa (N'laea): (Them and August Uncommon make great mixes)
Ulrik Ekenberg: (Oooh, I hadn't heard of August Uncommon. I will have to try them. Thanks for the recommend)
N'laea: We do not kill wolves, but perhaps you can help with the goblins. They are easier.
Michael (Talwin): Dammit Carissa. i'm going to make some mint tea now. GAH! Darn you. I forgot where the honey is though. GRR
Sundown: Shift and enter as you type puts you in Out of Character Ryan
Carissa (N'laea): (anytime! I love tea, have a tea box subscription so happy to give you more, lol)
TMO (Craigh): I need to get back off soda and back on tea. I don't do specialy blends though, just basic common black
N'laea: (LOL)
Ulrik Ekenberg: Thank you
Ulrik Ekenberg: Thank you
TMO (Craigh): alt+enter
BOB Sorry
Ulrik Ekenberg: THANK YOU
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Carissa (N'laea): (paraenthesis is still a good habit to keep for when you accidentally can't figure it out)
TMO (Craigh): ctrl-enter is doing an action
Craigh: like this
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): k, that last one was on purpose, but I had to do it
Carissa (N'laea): the black chat should change to green OOC
Michael (Talwin): :)
Carissa (N'laea): lol
BOB (LINK)
<a href="http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.FantasyGrounds">(LINK)</a>
BOB Most of the quirks of chat in FG
Ulrik Ekenberg: I'm sure that the goblins will fall just as easily to my trident as any wolf
N'laea: I look forward to seeing you in action.
Craigh: Why did you enter the Mist, if you're not used to it?
Carissa (N'laea): (not sarcasm there at all either!)
Ulrik Ekenberg: shifts uncomfortably
Craigh: *short upward whistle*
Sundown: Sir Talwin, Not to be ungrateful we do need people but if you are back why do we need an unsung farmer?
Ulrik Ekenberg: My town's name literally means Dirt Farm, and I wasn't mean to be a farmer.
Raelynn: pushes door open with charts in her hand
Raelynn: Because we always need new FRIENDS, Sundown.
Ulrik Ekenberg: I wanted something more for myself.
Talwin: If we never gave anyone chances Sundown, none of us would have ever made a difference in the world
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I'm sure Zayden will sing him, don't worry
Talwin: Quietly
Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm sure Zayden will sing him, don't worry
Raelynn: puts the charts down and sits to listen
Talwin: Don't worry Sundown
Talwin: We'll put him to good work. We always need a helping hand that is actually willing to help
Licornah: Farmers are important...
Youtargim: Clears the table for Rae
Raelynn: Oh! Do you sing? Zayden does. He's very good at it.
Licornah: My family are farmers
Raelynn: nods a thank you to Yout
Raelynn: And I was looking at my charts, and I think he's supposed to be here.
Ulrik Ekenberg: Give me a chance, and I will show you that I can match anyone. I may lack experience, but you won't find anymore more willing to pull their weight.
Talwin: Nods
Sundown: I am confident that Talwin is worth a dozen of ..... Ulik?
Licornah: Do you have a favorite Dragon?
Ulrik Ekenberg: wilts
Talwin: Gazes meaninfully at Sundown
Zayden: Oh thanks Rae
N'laea: does not disagree with Sundown, but at least knows to not say it outloud
Zayden: smiles
Ulrik Ekenberg: UlRIK....
Talwin: While I appreciate that, Ulrik will have his day of fame.
Craigh: That's probably why he's working for Talwin, instead of the other way around.
Talwin: Winks at Craigh. Told you. Same person
Raelynn: The charts, Sundown! They don't lie. He should join us. It'll help him best on this path.
Talwin: Love that Dry Wit
Talwin: Shrugs
Sundown: I am not disagreeing Miss Raelynn
Sundown: I am just questioning the why now
Talwin: The Protectorate is growing. A few men at arms came looking for me. Should I turn them down as well?
Raelynn: Why now? When would be better?
Sundown: Last year when Sir Talwin was out of the Estate for months on end
Sundown: Now that he is back
Raelynn: I don't recall asking you why you showed up when YOU did.
Talwin: We don't know the future
Sundown: I do not want him to feel he is able to be replaced
Talwin: Raising his hands to signal peace
Talwin: No one is being replaced
Raelynn: rolls eyes
Talwin: Gently
Bixi Fizzlebang: Rae does
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Except for Ulrik after he dies in half a session
Talwin: Everyone gets a chance.
Talwin: Besides
Carissa (Raelynn): (shhhh optimism!)
Talwin: As I was saying the protectorate is growing
Talwin: Until the Multitude of different threats in the mist are gone, which, will never happen in my lifetime
Raelynn: And as I was telling Craigh before, every stranger is just a friend waiting to be made. And now we've made one!
Talwin: I would rather keep the experience men who know the protectorate HERE at the protectorate
Ulrik Ekenberg: preens
Ulrik Ekenberg: Thank you, I would be honored to be considered your friend
Talwin: Ulrik can learn the ropes where if he makes a mistake he won't immedietly die
Sundown: Brother Brer was around a few months ago when the Countess was conducting her magical energies
Talwin: You know how unforgiving the mist is Sundown
Talwin: Nods
Talwin: He was
Raelynn: And I'm glad you're happy to be my friend, too! I'll help make sure you're famous!
Zayden cough cough
Talwin: Sighs
Raelynn: nods and points towards Zayden
Sundown: I was told by Snee that we needed to make sure all the seat in the theater were full when Zayden opens next month
Raelynn: Like we're doing for Zayden! Getting him a stage to grow his fanbase!
Zayden: what me? famous? Sure I guess that sounds good
Talwin: Snorts
Raelynn: With your voice? You're just waiting to be discovered. It'll be soon, I know it!
Talwin: The man who could sneak while singing. Now that was impressive and a sight I will never forget
Talwin: Er, that and peeing on the fish
Zayden: Appreciate that Rae, of course what matters most is that everybody has a good time, fame can be a tricky mistress
Raelynn: The famous don't want to be forgotten. He's on the right step.
Bixi Fizzlebang: He's a really great fisherman too
Sundown: Peeing on Fish
Craigh: You don't want to know
Talwin: Long story, let's not discuss
Zayden: laughs
Ulrik Ekenberg: stares in bemusement
Zayden: I find sneaking much more enjoyable while singing
Raelynn: Yes! Ulrik should see his new fishing shake. It's quite, er, nice, for what it is.
Talwin: Cough
Ulrik Ekenberg: I would imagine the shake has... fish in it?
Ulrik Ekenberg: Maybe some milk...?
Raelynn: ....shack. Sorry, shouldn't have taken a sip of tea while I was talking!
Zayden: fish shake?
Sundown: I do not think even Jilly can make a good fish shake
Zayden laughs
Raelynn: A fish shake sounds....
Raelynn: grimaces
Ulrik Ekenberg: hurk
Craigh: Rae, can I try one of those spicier teas? Not all the way to mouthburn or whatever it was. I'm curious if everything still tastes the same.
Raelynn: It will not be on the menu.
Zayden: A fish shake sounds properly horrible, unless you're a cat I suppose
Raelynn: Oh, yes! Um, N'laea could you...?
Raelynn: gestures that she's busy with her charts
Bixi Fizzlebang: Are you telling me you haven't had anything spicy in 8 months!?
Youtargim: If you chop up fish into smaller parts and scatter it on the waves you can attrack larger fish and sharks
N'laea: grumbles but goes to get the tea for Craigh, sets it on the table for him after it has brewed
Craigh: Not that I've noticed.
N'laea: Here.
Craigh: Thanks.
Raelynn: Do we want sharks?
Ulrik Ekenberg: nods at Youtargrim
Youtargim: I have heard that certain diseases can make you lose your sense of smell and taste
Craigh: smells his tea.
Raelynn: nods
Raelynn: Some do, yes. I don't think he has... a disease?
Youtargim: We do not have sharks here, we have to go to the sea
whistfully
Zayden sips his tea
Raelynn: Oh, with the dolphins?
Youtargim: Yes
Youtargim: Dolphins too
Craigh: *clicks twice*
Quirks his head towards Craigh
Craigh: Smells good.
Ulrik Ekenberg: Oh, are dolphin shakes going to be on the menu?
Raelynn: No! No shakes, and certainly not meat ones!
Raelynn: This is a TEA shop, not a Shake Shack!
Craigh: carefully sips from the cup.
Sundown: We did find that griffon pig
Sundown: Sir Talwin
Shislif (Zayden): mmm shake shack
Carissa (Raelynn): (oh wow I forgot about that one)
N'laea: Griffon pig?
Ulrik Ekenberg: :: in an undertone to Zayden :: When this shack's a shaking...
Bixi Fizzlebang: Don't count it out yet, Rae. Maybe dolphins are delicious? We've never tried them
Ulrik Ekenberg: coughs, then looks guiltily to Raelynn
Zayden: Oh I'll come a knockin Ulrik, don't you worry
Sundown: There was a magically transformed pig
Ulrik Ekenberg: grins despite himself
Craigh: shakes his head.
N'laea: Previously a griffon? Branwyn?
Sundown: It terrorized the area for a while
Licornah: Who did the pig make angry?
Licornah: Or who did the Griffon make mad?
Sundown: Yes, well it was a lot of people when we were clearing out Skull Church
Sundown: That was a decade ago though
Sundown: It took us over 7 years to finally track it down
N'laea: And it is still a pig? That is strong magic.
Michael (Talwin): (I am sorry, I must go AFK for another five)
Ulrik Ekenberg: squints at Raelynn, then at N'laea
Ulrik Ekenberg: A decade...?
Sundown: The Countess is not to be triffiled with
Shislif (Zayden): brb refill
Raelynn: Hmm? Oh we were gone for some of that time.
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
Sundown: You were gone for all of that time
Sundown: Looks at Rae
Raelynn: Elflands. I mean it only FELT like a day or two, but it was longer, apparently.
Craigh: nods
Raelynn: Yes, I can tell time, Sundown.
Sundown: Sips his very strong firey tea
N'laea: Is the pig still a concern?
Sundown: It is dead
N'laea: Ah. That is unfortunate. Ulrik could have assisted.
Sundown: When we killed it it transformed back so we knew we had the right one
Craigh: *short query whistle*
Craigh: Did anyone try making bacon out of it?
N'laea: Griffon bacon....?
Sundown: I do not think you can make bacon from a Griffon
Zayden: Better not let Bix hear that
Craigh: Oh, well, not if it transformed back. I was thinking as a pig.
Raelynn: Bixi is not serving that here.
Ulrik Ekenberg: I could make an attempt to make bacon. You can make bacon from a number of .... I mean, I'll take your word for it given I have no knowledge of how to make bacon.
Raelynn: So how is the tea, Craigh? Can you taste it?
N'laea: You hunt?
Sundown: It was three years ago so that is a no
Craigh: Yes and no. I can taste the tea, but not any spice.
Raelynn: Fascinating.... I wonder if we just need to up it a notch until you can taste it?
Sundown: Hands his cup to N'laea, that was very nice, thank you
Craigh: shrugs.
N'laea: does not take the cup
Sundown: Say hello to Shi when you see her again
N'laea: Certainly.
Sundown: Sets the cup down in front of her
Craigh: We can try it out, I guess.
Sundown: Sir Talwin I will go make my report to the Govenor
Sundown: Let me know when you want me to fill up the theater for Zayden
Sundown: Nods to the room and leaves
Raelynn: On his grand opening night! Which is soon I hope!
Zayden: Thanks Sunny!
TMO (Craigh): I failed, I know
TMO (Craigh): Fives wasn't more obnoxious than him
Shislif (Zayden): there is no failure, only learning what doesn't work :)
BOB LOL with TMO
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): I'll tell that to my manager at my next performance review
TMO (Craigh): I need to learn how to be a better asshole.
BOB HAH
Shislif (Zayden): lol
Carissa (Raelynn): first you get a stick....
Michael (Talwin): (Back.)
BOB When you catch up Michael Sundown left Talwin some ideas
Michael (Talwin): (Reviewing now)
BOB and N'alea some dishes to clean up
TMO (Craigh): Idea #1: "First, you get a stick..."
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ????
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): profit
BOB Sundown is never NOT nice
Carissa (Raelynn): N'laea refsuses and is leaving them for Rae
BOB Just is rarely nice
BOB Lorie, Lemon, what did you want to accomplish with the time to relax after building?
Michael (Talwin): I don't think he's an intentional asshole, just an obvlisious one. I can sometimes relate.
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Michael (Talwin): You can tell your manager that at the next performance review as well
BOB Also for Michael, I will not make Ryan play a 1st level character going forward, just for tonight
Michael (Talwin): Never thought he would. That would be...oh gods. I would never
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bixi is mostly just farming and hating on Yout
TMO (Craigh): oo... first level? *checks grimoire for fun spells*
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Ulrik is going to weep into his hands over the whole being 1/12 Talwin comment
BOB grins
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Michael (Talwin): Although, is he very much aware we MIGHT be splitting off for another adventure where we all are....well frankly level 1
Lorie (Licornah): Ummmm.......... I don't know.
Michael (Talwin): LOL
BOB That is a discussion for July Michael
TMO (Craigh): But I just got all this phenominal cosmic power!
Michael (Talwin): Hey, as much advance notice as possible is never a bad thing. Being blindsided really sucks
Michael (Talwin): But yes, July
BOB All very true TMO and Michael
BOB Itty bitty living space for TMO
Carissa (Raelynn): No one knows the future. Except Rae.
Michael (Talwin): Also starting at level one is probably a deal killer for me. I just can't after 8 years start back at 1
Carissa (Raelynn): then we probably won't but not a worry until July
TMO (Craigh): it'd be fine Michael. we'll all be in it together
Michael (Talwin): Kudos to Carissa for letting me know when I started again LOL
Carissa (Raelynn): lol happy to help
Michael (Talwin): WAIT!
Michael (Talwin): Ryan...how old are you?
BOB chuckles
Carissa (Raelynn): and/or are you older than 31
Michael (Talwin): That's the important question!
Carissa (Raelynn): Michael doesn't believe he's the youngest here
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): 17, er 23
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Totally at 23 year old dragon maiden slayer
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Wait, Michael is only 31?
Michael (Talwin): Holy shit
Michael (Talwin): Are you really 23? If so, I'm in the clear
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Seems unlikely
BOB I think Ryan's wife might have something to say about that
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Sorry Michael
Carissa (Raelynn): LOL
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): (Do I want to troll him further.... or be honest...?)
Carissa (Raelynn): troll
BOB Did we establish for Sharif yet?
Michael (Talwin): Well, thank god bob has that quote
Craigh: just remember, the number of people in the world older than you is constantly shrinking.
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Yes, I am totally 23 years old. Just ask my wife of 15 years
TMO (Craigh): just remember, the number of people in the world older than you is constantly shrinking.
Talwin: WAIT!
Michael (Talwin): WAIT!
Carissa (Raelynn): LOL
Michael (Talwin): Sharif? How old are YOU?
BOB He is AFK
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): THAT'S depressing, thanks TMO
Michael (Talwin): Sigh
Michael (Talwin): Fine
Michael (Talwin): lol
Lorie (Licornah): As long as we all agree BOB is the oldest...
TMO (Craigh): he is older than me
Shislif (Zayden): establish what now?
Michael (Talwin): As long as his quote about becoming old is actually true, then I'm fine
Carissa (Raelynn): are you younger or older than 31, Sharif?
Michael (Talwin): Yes! A critical question
Carissa (Raelynn): Michael is in a bit of a crisis right now and must know
Zayden: Oh I'm older than 31
Shislif (Zayden): OOC
Carissa (Raelynn): Welp sorry Michael
Michael (Talwin): SONOFABISCUIT
TMO (Craigh): You still da baby
Shislif (Zayden): Ppl who hear me are usually surprised by how old i am lol
Michael (Talwin): My midlife crisis has started before 40. I'm doomed
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): I'm sure your mother was a very lovely biscuit, Sharif. Pay Michael no mind
Michael (Talwin): LOL
TMO (Craigh): You didn't really think a D&D campaign of SECOND EDITION was going to be populated with Gen Zers, did you?
Shislif (Zayden): lol
Lorie (Licornah): :: laughs ::
Michael (Talwin): ITS 2.MINE!
Michael (Talwin): Dammit
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Lorie (Licornah): Ed and E. Gary wouldn't have it...
Lorie (Licornah): Ogre might though... he was an oddball
TMO (Craigh): Just because I graduated from college roughly 31 years ago...
Michael (Talwin): Sigh. I just....what is it like in another 15? Do you guys even notice the passage?
TMO (Craigh): they keep going faster
BOB chuckles
Lorie (Licornah): :: blinks :: meh... age is a number. As long as you're on the right side of the dirt, you're fine.
Michael (Talwin): Well Bob will be mankinds first Lich...cause I'm never stopping playing
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I started going to a new therapist and explaining to her that I moved out of my parents house 20 years ago was a little bit rough on my psyche
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): You pray a lot... Mostly for the pain in your back to end or your life to
Michael (Talwin): WOW
BOB I am doing a Voices from the Future exhibit where we get kids to give us recordings of what they think the future will be like in far off 2052
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, the joint pain is a killer for me
Michael (Talwin): Like...a time capsule bob?
Lorie (Licornah): I'm happier now than when I was in my 20s, that's for sure.
Shislif (Zayden): nice
BOB Voice recording anyone can contribute to
TMO (Craigh): time capsules capture the current time for the future to look at
Shislif (Zayden): I'll 2nd both of those
BOB 868-4-future
Lorie (Licornah): That's an awesome project BOB
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): I'll let you know if things are better in my 20's in 3 years when I hit 20
BOB might not be the right area code
Michael (Talwin): Oh hell I am too. Mostly thanks to having something to look forward to every friday, but soon I think my own joints will be getting bad from the amount of heavy lifting for the sweeping company. God knows what else to my lungs
Michael (Talwin): *happier then my twenties response*
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, I feel like I traded the physically feeling good for mentally feeling good. On a good day.
Shislif (Zayden): lifting weights is supposed to be good for your bones/weights, so could be the opposite actually
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): It helps if you have kids and know that you have those backup organs for when yours eventually fail
BOB LOL
Shislif (Zayden): lol
BOB THAT is why Lorie and TMO have
Licornah: :D
Michael (Talwin): Well Never really thought of it like that. I still have no kids.
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, if someone had given me that perspective a few years ago, things might have turned out differently...
Shislif (Zayden): Hey if you don't need new organs until you're old that's a good deal, got my first new one at 7 years
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): If you don't have any, I can lend you some. Or, if they don't work, I know some people
Michael (Talwin): Also my dad had like two houses by age 24. I just bought my first one. Anyone who lectures me about work, education, and costs that is older then 50 does not get an opinion
BOB the podcast This is Uncomfortable did an episode this season on Eggs... women selling eggs to make money
Shislif (Zayden): mmm nice are they organic?
BOB 100%
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): I mean, I used to work at a grocery store and those were some of our most popular items
Lorie (Licornah): :: cringe ::
Shislif (Zayden): lol
Michael (Talwin): What did she camp outside costco and then sell them in the parking lot so people didn't need to suffer in costco? Cause if so, she's a true entreprenuer
Lorie (Licornah): (Women's eggs were popular at your grocery store... I'm not shopping there )
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): (I think he means HER eggs)
BOB Fertility clinics
Michael (Talwin): Huh
Shislif (Zayden): lol
Michael (Talwin): Well, that context helps bob. Don't you think?
Talwin: LOL
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Lorie (Licornah): (This conversation turned)
Lorie (Licornah): (Gives credence to the Chicken wars on TikTok)
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): (I'd sell my eggs if I could... make eggs)
BOB I am now curious about how many organs Sharif has bought on the black market
Carissa (Raelynn): you get good money from it apparently
Michael (Talwin): Sharif, don't post anything that is discoverable in a legal action!
Michael (Talwin): ;)
Shislif (Zayden): the black market ones are usually lower quality :)
BOB See that is a great line of quotes
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I mean, guys have things to sell too, just sayin
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Sharif, I sometimes rent my house out as an AirBnB. I can get you some extra organs if you want
Shislif (Zayden): lol
BOB LOL
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Michael (Talwin): Holy Smokes
Michael (Talwin): And Lo, a new market was born
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): And now Lemon and Lori know why I was chased out
Shislif (Zayden): Lol lol Dru, I think you have good premise for a horror movie there :)
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): and Sharif
Shislif (Zayden): maybe just throw in a creepy german doctor
TMO (Craigh): I walk away for 2 minutes....
BOB One thing that did not get decided
Ulrik Ekenberg: continues shipping his milk that has a little bit of tea in it
Carissa (Raelynn): with pitchforks and tridents
BOB Where is the theatre for Zayden
TMO (Craigh): starts whacking people with his walking stick
Ulrik Ekenberg: *sipping
Shislif (Zayden): good q
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Right outside the inn, but in the mist
BOB In Hourglass?
Carissa (Raelynn): Bob was wondering if we wanted to build up the haunted village
Michael (Talwin): If we are doing legitimate city planning, let's pick the densest population center for the area
Shislif (Zayden): Feel like the Mist would help with the special effects for our shows
Carissa (Raelynn): near Redfern
Michael (Talwin): Sure. Why not?
Image: Craniate_Wastes_V03_9-17-21
Carissa (Raelynn): More foot traffic was... hourglass? But more esteemed people was O(forgot the town)?
BOB You can think and talk about it
Michael (Talwin): We can also build the Future University College district nearbvy
Michael (Talwin): Wherever we put it, things are going to grow around it
Carissa (Raelynn): The trick is I don't think O....whatever is part of Dragon Fen... yet.....
Shislif (Zayden): as long as there's ample parking, otherwise ppl won't come
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Can we please also name it the Future University College
Carissa (Raelynn): Otsuan
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Good ol FUC
BOB You have Otterville which is the largest settlement in the Estate
Carissa (Raelynn): There we go. Where the warehouses were and PTSD for Talwin
Michael (Talwin): Oh man. If you had any idea the amount of events i've passed on because I would feel like a damn sardine...
Shislif (Zayden): lols
BOB That would be the college town
Michael (Talwin): Those were houses
Carissa (Raelynn): Sure sure normal houses of poison
Michael (Talwin): and Lol to lemon. Haha
Michael (Talwin): that was pretty good
Michael (Talwin): Uh no. They were nomal houses of Mimic flesh
Michael (Talwin): :)
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
BOB Then to the upper left on that map is Hourglass, which has a church, the Inn of the Lost Eagle, the new buildings you just did and farmers and miners
BOB I am rather proud of that map still with the Mist on it like that
Michael (Talwin): It's cool. You should be proud of it
BOB So Otsuan was the only other place discussed that was because you have not done anything in the southwest corner of the Estate area
BOB you will have more foot traffic in Hourglass
BOB more people go through Redfern Lake and then east to the Jistille Estates because that is the Queen's home
Michael (Talwin): Lets buid up one area at a time I think if that is okay with the group
Carissa (Raelynn): fine with me
Michael (Talwin): Also less area we have to defend at once
TMO (Craigh): it's all good. We have an Ulrik!
Michael (Talwin): heheheh
Shislif (Zayden): sounds good
BOB Ryan did you see how to open up that map?
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Ulrik needs a doomed hometown backstory. How is that going to happen if you sensibly defend this place?
Michael (Talwin): lol
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
TMO (Craigh): Trust me - if Ulrik has any family in that town still, it is *doomed*
Michael (Talwin): HAHA
BOB So the theater is built in Hourglass
Michael (Talwin): Oh, just in case Ryan. At the top left. Records -> Images -> Maps
Michael (Talwin): And there was much rejoicing
BOB or the link in chat
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Thank ye both
BOB and yes Ryan that is the Skull Church where you found the remains of your former character's companions
Michael (Talwin): I do ask that we build it large enough for future zoning planning that we can expand as the area expands. After all, Agriculture Zone 1, cannot be immedietly segrated into Industrial Zone 2, without first spanning Residential Zone 4. Just ask the local zoning office or god help you the fines you might receive
TMO (Craigh): we hold Bingo Nights there every Thursday
BOB chuckles
BOB at both
Michael (Talwin): lol
Carissa (Raelynn): ....no we go with Houston style planning. No zone at all! No plans! Everyone wins!!
Shislif (Zayden): Did this just turn into Cities Skylines?
Michael (Talwin): Hey, i'm not saying that was a bad thing....but it was a damn inconveient thing in the end
Michael (Talwin): Man, have you BEEN in houston traffic? Forget about it. I'd rather die
BOB so we will take two weeks off, then next session we open with Ryan creating his character, TMO polishing Craigh up and then different minor encounters until Sharif arrives about 9 PM my time and we can do the grand opening performance for the theater
Raelynn: As a former Texan, yes. Many times.
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): No plans? So, the red light district next to the graveyard... got it
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Michael (Talwin): To both
Shislif (Zayden): cool sounds good
Michael (Talwin): Awesome!
Carissa: sounds good to me
BOB The IC and OOC pages on the site can help
Michael (Talwin): And certainly no offense to Houstonians. Just no zoning plans can be good and also bad
BOB and everyone gets to enjoy and post
Shislif (Zayden): So the next two friday are off?
BOB correct
Carissa: lol I agree
Shislif (Zayden): cool cool
Michael (Talwin): HUGS! Night all :)(
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): As a former Alaskan, I say that we spread it out over a 10 mile area, with villagers needing to drive for over half an hour to get daily necessities
BOB BUT there is also the Ironwood clan posts to make
Carissa: Also good!
Shislif (Zayden): Night!
'Michael' disconnected
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Night everyone
Carissa: YEahhhhh one day
Carissa: Night al!
'Carissa' disconnected
Shislif (Zayden): night all :)
BOB grins I leave it to you Carissa, you will be free on Friday night
TMO (Craigh): I will work on plotting Craigh's offensive spells
BOB I will leave the game up while I am gone
TMO (Craigh): Carissa - you're going to have to help me get started with the Treasury
Shislif (Zayden): I'm offended by those spells :)
BOB but when Windows updates that will just happen
Lorie: Have a good evening... BOB safe travels to you!!!
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Good to see you/meet you all again (man, that sentence got messy)
BOB Thanks!
Lorie: Talk to you in two weeks all
Shislif (Zayden): safe travels!
TMO: Oh, you will be, Shislif, you will be
'Lorie' disconnected
Shislif (Zayden): lolz
TMO: welcome back Ryan
Shislif (Zayden): Nice to meet you Ryan
Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Bye~!
'Dru5232321' disconnected
'Shislif' disconnected
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, literally every time I walk away we end the session. Ok, goodnight!
BOB warm hugs
'Lemon' disconnected
BOB You are working on things TMO?
