Carissa (Vee Barlett): anytime after noon, this is pretty standard :P
BOB OK
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I have no plans except sleep so I can text you if your around and/or you tell me?
'Michael' connected
BOB I will plan on being near the screens at Noon and you will text me
BOB Hello Michael
Carissa (Vee Barlett): sounds good! if I'm awake enough it'll be noon otherwise 1, but will plan on that
BOB I will be riding the bike for 25+ miles
BOB then be here
Carissa (Vee Barlett): i have no plans so I can wait if you're still biking
BOB Just letting you know my plans, grins
Michael: hey guys what's up
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol appreciate it
Vee Barlett: hi michael!
BOB Life is good How are you Michael
Carissa (Vee Barlett): game 1 of the world series starts soon!!
Michael: Pretty good. Hurt my back and knee pretty bad. Trying to take it a bit easy
Michael: I'm getting older, can't take those kind of risks anymore
Carissa (Vee Barlett): say the still youngest of us....
Michael: Then that means you guys shouldn't do that crap eithr
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's fineeeee
'Dru5232321' connected
Michael: When you have to debate whether or not you want to finish out your yearly deductable for emergency room before insurance covers the rest, that's when you know oyu can't take those risks lol
BOB RYAN!!!!
Michael: Hi Ryan!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well sadly I've been there before so I udnerstand, lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I don't say hi to people until they say hi first because I don't know if they can see it!
BOB Grins
Michael: I'll say it once i'll say it again carissa lol, I'm pretty conservative (in values, I hate the republican party), but if there was ever one thing I felt really strong about it was Universal Healthcare for fudge's sake.
Michael: Ah, never thought about that in depth for saying hi....well, I'll say it again later LOL
'Shislif' connected
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): I agree. No one ever thinks of the fudge, but fudge needs Universal Healthcare
Michael: DAMN STRAGHT!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hi ryan!
BOB grins
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and not if I eat it first
Matthias Crowtooth: Heyo neighborinos
Michael: OH is it time? Hi RYAN :)
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Monstrous.... That fudge had a family
Carissa (Vee Barlett): don't worry....i at e them, too
Michael: hey, as long as I got the medical advice before it was consumed, then I'm good
Shislif: hi everybody!
'TMO' connected
BOB Hello TMO
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hi sharif!
BOB and Hello Sharif
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Heyo
Michael: or I pay them 500 for them to give me an aspirin and take it easy for a few weeks. And then receive a 100 dollar bill for the two aspirin a month later... and then another 50 for a late fee because you never got the original bill and then another 50 because by the tiem you got through the medical phone center, you've somehow accrued late fees and now are on the verge of a debt collector calling you
Michael: or something
Carissa (Vee Barlett): did you ask them to itemize the bill?
Michael: No that didn't actually ahppen. I'm effing paranoid. I have a wallet card with the hospitals that are in network and such
Michael: But you hear the stories from family and you are like......
Carissa (Vee Barlett): always ask them to itemize, sometimes they'll remove charges that way
BOB So TMO can you give the nutshell version of what has happened since Matty passed otu on the ship?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): advice from my mom who was a nurse auditor and did the bill auditing
Michael: For anything major, I'm itemizing the shit out of it. I find it deeply Ironic that most hospitals are registered as charities
Carissa (Vee Barlett): does TMO exist yet?
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): It would be more in character for TMO to not know what is going on and react accordingly
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): I call it method acting
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
BOB So Carissa are you ready?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yup
Shislif: hello i'm here :)
TMO: 1) we found wreckage of the smuggler on the beach, and several hostile former crew who just wanted us to leave. So much so that they told us which way to go (after some persuading)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (tmo is alive! hi tmo!)
Allisa Nolbrae: Ruffus! My doll, how are you doing? What brings you here? and who is this scrumptious little thing you brought
Vee Barlett: dabs a bit of lipstick from the corner of her mouth, annoyed she used it
TMO: 2) We hit a little village, found nothing much except pointers to the big city and an incorrigible pickpocket.
Ruffus DeOrange: Allisa, you are not up on your rumors
Ruffus DeOrange: This is my new wife
BOWS
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (that bastard)
Vee Barlett: resists reacting
TMO: 3) at big city, we found Ruffus at the Bard College, started 17 different distractions, and then stole 2 bags containing precisely ... "nothing".
Ruffus DeOrange: I am so happy to introduce you to Violet
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): People who get married ARE bastards
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (*destroyed bags)
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): So Carissa isn't wrong
TMO: end of summary
Ruffus DeOrange: She has been a bolt from the blue
Vee Barlett: Please to meet ya.
Ruffus DeOrange: I am sorry Allisa that you were not invited to the party
blinks, pause, Blink
Allisa Nolbrae: OH
Allisa Nolbrae: That is so very good
Allisa Nolbrae: My dear I do hope you have a good priest on call
Vee Barlett: Oh?
Allisa Nolbrae: Or someone who can cure disease
Ruffus DeOrange: I am crushed Allisa
Vee Barlett: laughs
Ruffus DeOrange: How can you imply such things
Allisa Nolbrae: You know he has a hollow leg
Matthias Crowtooth: blinks, feelin as though he had awoken from a month-long slumber
Allisa Nolbrae: Leans in to Vee
Vee Barlett: We've yet to get to that part.
Michael (Jericho): (ITS HALLOW STEAL IT) lol
Allisa Nolbrae: Grabs her hair and KISSES her deeply
Matthias Crowtooth: and still can't use all of his fingers properly, apparently
Carissa (Vee Barlett): does rum fit in the leg?
Allisa Nolbrae: Then pulls back
Vee Barlett: blinks
Allisa Nolbrae: I look forward to joining your bed
Smiles
Michael (Jericho): Shudders
Carissa (Vee Barlett): shudders with you
Michael (Jericho): Ithink I just threw up a bit in my mouth
Allisa Nolbrae: and whirls off
Ruffus DeOrange: Sighs
Vee Barlett: turns to Ruffus, brow raised
Ruffus DeOrange: On the one hand, sadly we are not married
Vee Barlett: Bit quick for that, ain't it?
'Lemon' connected
Michael (Jericho): I mean, what two, three, or four consenting adults do in their spare time...I don't judge. So just throwing that out there
Ruffus DeOrange: On the other sadly the three of us likely will not be together in bed
Ruffus DeOrange: but It would be amazing
BOB Welcome Lemon
Vee Barlett: You can keep dreamin' there. Bit too quick for that, too, yeah?
Matthias Crowtooth: Huddling together for warmth? Would save in blankets, I guess.
Michael (Jericho): Hi Lemon!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (Matty is with the others)
Ruffus DeOrange: She would have wanted to carry on for so long
Lemon (Levi Reed): Hello!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (that's an important part TMO left off - poor Vee is all on her lonesome)
Ruffus DeOrange: It was best to get it over with quickly
Matthias Crowtooth: blinks again, feeling like he just teleported thousands of miles away
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (LEMON SAVE VEE)
Vee Barlett: Who is she?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (lol)
Ruffus DeOrange: Allisa owns the second best brothel in town
Vee Barlett: Ahhh, and she knows you quite well, it seems...
Ruffus DeOrange: She wants to know me better
Shislif (MeLange): ok full attention now :)
Ruffus DeOrange: Or at least my purse strings better
Vee Barlett: And how do you know she's only the second best brothel, eh?
Vee Barlett: smiles
Ruffus DeOrange: Because if you ever tell a woman she is better than everyone else you will never hear the end of it from her
Vee Barlett: rolls eyes
Vee Barlett: Some of us know how to take compliments.
Ruffus DeOrange: You are very good at taking compliments I do agree
Shislif (MeLange): hi Lemon!
Ruffus DeOrange: Walking Vee to the nice Inn on the other side of the square... We should do dinner first
Vee Barlett: Dinner sounds good. What do ya have in mind? I haven't explored this island much as I have wanted.
Lemon (Levi Reed): brb, sorry, ordering food
Ruffus DeOrange: This is the best Inn in town, just do not tell the chef that, he winks
User has gone AFK. (Lemon)
Shislif (MeLange): don't be sorry for ordering food :)
Vee Barlett: laughs
Vee Barlett: And you'll tell me more about yourself there, ya? You asked me plenty, but I haven't had a chance to return the favor.
BOB The two walk in through the doors
Michael (Jericho): I'm starting to wonder if Vee actually might end up being married to this dude.
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): (No, you should be sorry. Feel remorse AND SHAME!!! HOW DARE YOU EAT!?!?)
BOB They are shown immediately to a small table in the back near the kitchen doors
BOB A young girl about 8 or 9 brings over wine
Michael (Jericho): Immedietly? Like, he is a good patron here perhaps?
BOB and a basket of rolls
Carissa (Vee Barlett): definitely
Michael (Jericho): (He'sjust a theif who wants to be loved)
Ruffus DeOrange: I can tell you anythign you want to know Violet
Vee Barlett: You are quite well-known around here, it seems.
Ruffus DeOrange: Certainly, that is why you followed me
Vee Barlett: Oh?
Ruffus DeOrange: And why your friends will need your help
Vee Barlett: Which friends?
Ruffus DeOrange: The ones you separated me from, who stayed with my bags
MeLange ears burn
Ruffus DeOrange: It was very well done
Vee Barlett: Only ones I came with were the two you saw me with. I'm sure ones still in the library. Can't say much for the second. Ain't sure he's even a friend currently.
Ruffus DeOrange: A triffle loud perhaps but
Ruffus DeOrange: Do not worry, I appreciate your candor
Vee Barlett: Hmm, and I wonder, why would you pick me out from the crowd then?
Ruffus DeOrange: I am very used to having ..... we shall say Encounters
Ruffus DeOrange: I picked you out of the gathering because you do not belong there
User is back. (Lemon)
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, you belong in the pirate mafia being a pirate mafia princess
Vee Barlett: My sea shanty gave it away, eh? Not sure it fits for a Bard College.
Vee Barlett: grins
Ruffus DeOrange: You are not quite the type for the College, you seem to have skills in a different vein
TMO: (sorry, IRL busy)
Shislif (MeLange): IRL?!?!?!
Vee Barlett: I do enjoy hearing conjectures.
Vee Barlett: Humor me.
Ruffus DeOrange: Your friends are well suited it would seem
Ruffus DeOrange: How would you like me to conjecture over you?
Vee Barlett: Same way I will for you. Want to go first or shall I?
Ruffus DeOrange: You can ask first,
Ruffus DeOrange: Fills her wine glass
Vee Barlett: Ask? Nah, I can simple tell you what I've already noticed and you tell me how close I am. Then I can do the same for you in return. Fair?
Ruffus DeOrange: Here I thought you wanted Truth or Dare
Vee Barlett: laughs
Ruffus DeOrange: But please I am here to explore your mind
Vee Barlett: That can be round two if you get me in the mood for it.
Vee Barlett: Let's see...
Vee Barlett: You have talent. Not just sayin' it since I heard ya, but because you're in Mizzen, not Osterhold. And your colleagues seem to have missed your songs which implies you've been away for a bit, yeah?
Ruffus DeOrange: Sips his wine
Vee Barlett: You have enough money to carry the title lord, and enough appreciation for the arts or respect, or both, that others have no fear asking you to fund their arts.
Ruffus DeOrange: Warm smile
Vee Barlett: Bit hard to find someone who truly does appreciate the arts. I'll give you a compliment there.
Vee Barlett: And you're used to playin' this little game. Ain't saying my source, but was warned of a sweet talkin' ner do well on my way to the theatre. You match half the profile. I'm curious to see if you match the rest.
Vee Barlett: But...
Ruffus DeOrange: Fortunately I know a little music, it is a talent that I always have possessed
Vee Barlett: reaches out to lightly brush his chin
Vee Barlett: Goatees are SO last season. Only ones who still wear them are ner do wells so ain't looking for that rumor and you.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): smiles
Vee Barlett: smiles
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): (hides his goatee)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (Vee's dad will happily shave it off if you need!)
Michael (Jericho): (Frantically googling goatee because forgot what it looks like)
Michael (Jericho): (oh....)
Michael (Jericho): (huh)
Vee Barlett: You've got this down to an art, too, yeah? The wine, the restaurant that knows you, knowing the right words. It's a bit impressive.
Lemon (Levi Reed): It's very like 90s college boy
Ruffus DeOrange: Is it only half because of the leg? You can just tell me
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): (Think of the mountain man beard everyone had during COVID, then remove the sides)
Michael (Jericho): Hey, a few actos here pulledit off well. And some others.......yeah better to shave it off....
Vee Barlett: I will say the leg confuses me. I'd have half a mind to question if you were a pirate, but that ain't very practical on a boat.
Vee Barlett: A little too... fancy.
Ruffus DeOrange: It is an excellent place to hide things
Vee Barlett: And what would someone like you have to hide?
Lemon (Levi Reed): What WOULDN'T someone like him have to hide?
Ruffus DeOrange: Always tell everyone everything so they think you have nothing to hide
Vee Barlett: smiles
Michael (Jericho): That just means you have more to hide and your throwing out decoys....
Vee Barlett: And ot answer your question, no, the leg doesn't bother me. The goatee... well, I do think you'd look better with a beard, but that's neither here nor there.
Ruffus DeOrange: It takes little effort to grow a beard,
Ruffus DeOrange: It does take effort to properly maintain a particular style of a beard
Vee Barlett: rubs her cheek
Vee Barlett: I'll have to take your word for it.
Ruffus DeOrange: So you know that I am capable of paying attention to details
Michael (Jericho): )He's got me there. To much a PITA to maintain one. That's why I just get it all off my face)
Vee Barlett: Mmhmm. Your turn now, yeah?
Ruffus DeOrange: You are a young lady away from home, wanting to make her own name for herself, not afraid of the family but not overly fond of leaning on them either
Vee Barlett: leans back and sips her wine
Michael (Jericho): Spews out diet coke!
Michael (Jericho): HWO DID HE KNOW!?
Michael (Jericho): lol
Ruffus DeOrange: You are trying to prove to your friends that you can be a leader, that you are capable of being in charge,
Michael (Jericho): (Actually, we kinda just assume she is)
Michael (Jericho): (no need to prove it...)
Ruffus DeOrange: But you hate the idea that they depend on you, you want them to think for themselves and offer up ideas and solutions not just do what you say
Michael (Jericho): .......
Vee Barlett: smiles slightly
Ruffus DeOrange: You want a chance to just let go
Lemon (Levi Reed): ouch, too real
Ruffus DeOrange: to give in and forget that you are in charge
Michael (Jericho): I know right
Carissa (Vee Barlett): love you alllllll
Ruffus DeOrange: you want me to take you upstairs and not think until the morning
Michael (Jericho): I'll go turn bright red in another chat room....
Ruffus DeOrange: But you know that would be improper and so you restrain yourself
Ruffus DeOrange: To your detriment
Vee Barlett: holds up her still full wine glass
Vee Barlett: Bit early for that still, yeah?
Michael (Jericho): So, he fires a shotgun and hits a few targets, so what! He's not our dad! He can't psychoanalyze us!
Vee Barlett: I ain't a brothel lady.
Vee Barlett: smiles
Ruffus DeOrange: Brothel workers have a price in coin
Ruffus DeOrange: You have a price in reputation
Vee Barlett: Hmm.... well there is a price for everything, true.
Vee Barlett: But there's always a way to haggle.
Ruffus DeOrange: There are no permanent boundries
Ruffus DeOrange: There is always room for give and take
Ruffus DeOrange: Only a young priest with a stick up his butt would not agree
Michael (Jericho): Screw you bob!
Michael (Jericho): :)
Vee Barlett: laughs
Ruffus DeOrange: And they learn eventually
Vee Barlett: Ain't that most priests?
TMO: okay, sorry, I think all the distractions are over with.
BOB Love you too Michael
Lorelei Trueshot: Pardon
Lorelei Trueshot: I have a note for you
Lorelei Trueshot: Hands a letter over to Vee
Vee Barlett: takes the note, confused
BOB Pausing here to see if anyone wants to write a note to Vee or if I am the one who wrote it
TMO: Bob - is there a way I can copy all of the current text, so I can paste it into something else to read easier, so I can catch up quickly?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): magic
BOB Sadly no to TMO
TMO: damn
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oooh, I would love to write a note to Vee
BOB On the DM side yes, on the Players side no
TMO: 'cuz this text is fricking tiny to fit on my laptop screen
Michael (Jericho): I did read last weeks, but do we actually no where Vee is? If so, i'd like us to be near for backup if she needs it before Mr. Smooth becomes Mr. Handsie
Michael (Jericho): Otherwise, I got nothing at the moment :(
BOB Ok so Levi gets to write 15 words
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not unless bob says you do
BOB and GO
BOB Vee opens the notes and reads
Vee Barlett: leans back and sips her wine
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I mean she didn't, but she can again
Michael (Jericho): (be aware that Rufus might read it?)
TMO: I'm going to try and catch up then. Whisper to me if you need my attention on something
Levi Reed: "We trashed the bags. Goods not there. You better seduce him good or we dead."
Carissa (Vee Barlett): LOL
Michael (Jericho): HOLY SHIT. I need another drink
Michael (Jericho): BRB
Michael (Jericho): And a Towel
User has gone AFK. (Michael)
BOB Noice
Vee Barlett: rolls here eyes, crumples up the letter, eyes the candle but decides to just stuff it in her pocket.
Ruffus DeOrange: Are your friends trying to save you?
Vee Barlett: Thinkin' I need new ones, actually.
Vee Barlett: And something harder than wine.
Ruffus DeOrange: Lorelei please bring us our dinners
Lorelei Trueshot: Nods, certanly my lord
Michael (Jericho): (Well at least we know that Levi knows where she is. Hopefully this doesn't get too dark, but we could be nearby to slice any vigerous appendiges if necessary)
Ruffus DeOrange: I think your friends are ..... interesting? adorable?
Vee Barlett: Adorable...?
Vee Barlett: barks a laugh
Vee Barlett: You want 'em?
Ruffus DeOrange: It is cute how they really are so very earnest in trying to distract me from you
Lemon (Levi Reed): More like incompetent
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (lol)
Vee Barlett: Mmm, and how is that going?
Ruffus DeOrange: Protecting you by also distracting me thinking I did not notice
Vee Barlett: leans a little closer
Michael (Jericho): Yeah...I mean....We spend an hour figuring out how to steal bags from a completely empty room. I still feel like a moron
Ruffus DeOrange: I think you are not distracted at all
Ruffus DeOrange: I think you are still on the hunt
Vee Barlett: I've been told I got a one-track mind before.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): *single tract? note to self: google that for story chat
Ruffus DeOrange: I am certain they failed to understand just how creative you can be
Vee Barlett: I think they fail to see I have more goals than I let on.
Ruffus DeOrange: More abilities too
Michael (Jericho): She speaks like a foul mouthed sailer. We know exactly how creative she can be
Vee Barlett: nods and drinks a bit more wine
Ruffus DeOrange: Takes Vee's hand and kisses it again
Vee Barlett: Keep it up and you may get that night you seem to want.
Vee Barlett: pauses
Vee Barlett: But only two. I ain't doin' no threes.
Ruffus DeOrange: Oh I think that would be the second best thing that can happen
Vee Barlett: I'm wounded. What would be the first?
User has gone AFK. (Lemon)
Ruffus DeOrange: You telling me why you are following me
Michael (Jericho): There it is
Vee Barlett: Same reason you're treatin' me to dinner, yeah? You got something I want, I got something you want. But neither of us are keen to say it.
Ruffus DeOrange: If you tell me what you want, will you give me what I want?
Michael (Jericho): That's a wordplay trap if I've ever heard one
Vee Barlett: Don't sound like a fair deal to me. You get information, and I have to give somethin' for it?
Ruffus DeOrange: What do you think I want?
Ruffus DeOrange: Sips his wine and smiles
User is back. (Lemon)
Vee Barlett: We've clearly established ain't neither of us mindreaders. Easy to say you'd want a night of fun, but I tihnk you want something more than that. You can get that anywhere else, but innocent as you made it sound, there's something you tihnk only I can give you.
Vee Barlett: Reason we're both still here. A little mystery.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (ok, caught up)
Vee Barlett: holds up the wine
Ruffus DeOrange: Building a mystery
Vee Barlett: And some good food and drink.
Ruffus DeOrange: The food is good, the wine is acceptable
Ruffus DeOrange: The company is better
Vee Barlett: I think you took somethin' that ain't yours. For fun? Sounds like your coin purse is full enough, but you're not quite sure where to go from here. How's that conjecture for you?
Vee Barlett: Mm, the company is a bit more fun than I was expecting. I'll give you that, too.
Ruffus DeOrange: Smiles
Ruffus DeOrange: If I was the sort of person to have things that were not easily transferable at the local marketplace
Michael (Jericho): Snort
Ruffus DeOrange: You would be someone that has the talent to take care of that I see
Vee Barlett: smiles
Vee Barlett: Glad you ain't an idiot.
Ruffus DeOrange: There are often many people who want to buy but that is how you end up being the fourth best brothel wench
Vee Barlett: laughs
Ruffus DeOrange: If you just accept any offer
Vee Barlett: That's short term thinkin'
Ruffus DeOrange: Exactly
Vee Barlett: So you have a proposition? You've given this thought, clearly.
Ruffus DeOrange: I would say that I have always had alternatives to my original plans
Ruffus DeOrange: and you might be a good emergency option
Lemon (Levi Reed): He wants in with the pirate mafia maybe
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (yes thinking that)
Vee Barlett: You're assuming you'll get those other options first.
Ruffus DeOrange: Kisses her hand again, I already have a better option
Vee Barlett: flips his hand over to twine their fingers
Vee Barlett: You make me your first option, and maybe we can make this a good night, yeah?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Vee whips out a contract and a lawyer
Ruffus DeOrange: You are very lovely
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Pocket Lawyer (tm)
Michael (Jericho): I still think he's a goober, but hey with "Lord" as a title, even in the underworld he might be convenient. Although, gotta be honest, never saw that angle coming
Carissa (Vee Barlett): darn it where is mini? thjat's what lirt is for
Michael (Jericho): It's called a cell phone with Chat GPD.
Ruffus DeOrange: I will offer this
Ruffus DeOrange: You go arrange a room for the two of us
Ruffus DeOrange: I will arrange to have anything that is too precious to interfeer with our bargain to be left in a convient place
Ruffus DeOrange: and I will join you and we can explore just how creative you can be
Michael (Jericho): Jeeze, how much stuff can he cram in that leg???
Vee Barlett: smiles and leans closer
Vee Barlett: You know anything about how dolphins hunt?
Ruffus DeOrange: Not at all
Vee Barlett: lowers her voice
Vee Barlett: They're not dumb enough to let their prey out of their sight. That's how you lose the tuna.
Ruffus DeOrange: Laughs deeply
Michael (Jericho): Shudders again
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Getting too close is how you get canned with the tuna
Carissa (Vee Barlett): exactly!
Michael (Jericho): So manyquotes of the night
Ruffus DeOrange: Reaches down to his bag and pulls out a bottle of rum
Ruffus DeOrange: Hands it to Vee
Ruffus DeOrange: Take that to our room for me please?
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Oh man, I'm no longer able to drink rum now. Bummer
Michael (Jericho): I never drank, but this storyline has confirmed it as a solid life choice
Vee Barlett: looks it over and sees if the cap is loose
BOB Sealed bottle wrapped in silver wire
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Roll perception?
Vee Barlett: raises brow
Vee Barlett: You plan to split a single bottle between two of us?
Michael (Jericho): Jiggle it around and here if there is a "TINK" lol
Ruffus DeOrange: Do you know how pirates hunt?
Vee Barlett: Ruthlessly.
Ruffus DeOrange: Exactly
Vee Barlett: holds out hand for another bottle
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Just swig it in your mouth and spit it back into the bottle. Bam, enough for two
Ruffus DeOrange: When they see a prize they keep after it
Ruffus DeOrange: I will see you in our room
Michael (Jericho): I can't tell if he's a genious, moderetly intelligent, or just thinking with his Parrot. I got nothing on figuring this dude out
Vee Barlett: eyes him but decides to go along with it for now
Michael (Jericho): Good job so far Carissa
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (if Levi can send her a letter maybe he's close)
Ruffus DeOrange: He stands and takes care of her chair
Vee Barlett: And how long do you plan to be, dear?
Ruffus DeOrange: Places a hand on her hip
Ruffus DeOrange: and his mouth on her neck
Ruffus DeOrange: warm soft
Michael (Jericho): ick
Ruffus DeOrange: then deep growl, I will not wait
Michael (Jericho): May need to take a shower to get that sleeze off you
Vee Barlett: 10 minutes or you'll become tuna.
Ruffus DeOrange: Then he steps back, picks up his bag and moves to the front desk
Ruffus DeOrange: Glances back, I will be the one who dines first
BOB and we break here
BOB jump back to the rest of the group
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (boy does the group owe her after all that lol)
Michael (Jericho): Wow bob. He might be smooth but I just get the ICK vibe
Lemon (Levi Reed): so gross
BOB the Reason Levi was able to get the letter over was at the Library
Michael (Jericho): Yes we do.
Michael (Jericho): Holy shit
BOB and handed it to her
Matthias Crowtooth: contemplates the horrors and depravities of the world.
BOB Handed it to the librarian
TMO (Rothuss Carder): have poked JTom
BOB Based on the description of Ruffus
BOB Thank you TMO
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Oh happy dagger, here is your sheathe.
BOB Matty can be at the library now
TMO (Rothuss Carder): he's been ill, so may not be up for it
BOB and Melange and Levi can fill him in
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's okay, just let mini know we miss him but he's allowed to rest up
BOB no worries, tell him to do whe he can
BOB and that I updated his sheet for him to second level
BOB 3 1st level spells to cast a day and up to 8 HP
BOB the priest thing was there so I deleted and we will deal with that later
Levi Reed: Hey, Matty, guess what
Matthias Crowtooth: I had a stroke and was comatose for three weeks?
Levi Reed: We trashed that dude's bags and the good rum wasn't in it, so now I'm letting Vee try to seduce him out of it
Levi Reed: Yeah that too
Levi Reed: You're fine
BOB and also sorry TMO Allysa will not be in, and we are hoping that this is the last event for Angelica to miss
Carissa (Vee Barlett): 8 hp for a mage? nmiceee
Michael (Jericho): (I'm assuming Jericho is withthem?)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): walk it off, just walk it off
BOB Yes to Miachel
Levi Reed: Plus I don't know if you heard, but Jericho is going to die if we don't get this church stuff back to the church in a month
Michael (Jericho): Slaps hand to face
Matthias Crowtooth: Oh, uh..... I feel like I am missing a lot of context, like.... who is Vee seducing?
BOB ROthuss, Matty and Jerico show up at the library
Jericho: Slaps hand to face
Levi Reed: That duke or whatever that stole the stuff we're looking for
Jericho: Levi, you're not supposed to just spread that around. I alreay feel like a dumbass
Levi Reed: The whole reason we're here?
BOB Lirt is examining ocean charts
'JtomTMO' connected
Matthias Crowtooth: Oh, why not just kill him?
BOB Melange was looking at fish
Levi Reed: Look, Jericho, everyone needs to have a sense of urgency about this so you don't die
Matthias Crowtooth: I have a dagger missing a sheathe. He can fill in.
BOB Levi was researchign trees
Jericho: Well....notthe only reason. Vee was the one who got the quest disguised as a trip through hell
Levi Reed: Because of politics or some shit
Jericho: I just managed to get myself screwed sideways
Matthias Crowtooth: Then why aren't you seducing the duke?
Levi Reed: I've never tried it that way
MeLange: Oh my god these fish!
Matthias Crowtooth: Never know what you like until you try
BOB Note also it is the 10th and the Geas is for the 28th so there is time
Michael (Jericho): .....
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol levi
Jericho: .....
Jericho: I'm not seducing a duke even on a death curse
Rothuss Carder: Why not?
Jericho: Hell, I fell like garbage that Vee might be
Jericho: There is literally no way to make up for this
MeLange: but you think you could sedure a duke Jericho? like if you wanted to?
-> Vee Barlett: Are you ok with me writing up a short scene to plop in when they are done?
Matthias Crowtooth: So... you feel like garbage forcing a friend to seduce someone, but that is still preferable to you seducing them...?
Levi Reed: She's probably going to stab him later and really enjoy it or something, I wouldn't worry about it
Vee Barlett: yep that's fine!
Rothuss Carder: Sure there is! You might have to be a bit creative, but I'm sure there's a way.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hi mini!
Jericho: MeLange? You know me. How likely do you think I could seduce ANYONE?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hope you're feeling okay!
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Hello!
Matthias Crowtooth: With a lot of rum, probably
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you all are talking at the library so Lirt is there
MeLange: Exactly Jericho, but if they needed healing you'd be on that like bear on honey. We all have our talents
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Heyo!
Jericho: Well yeah. I'd heal someone. Sleeping with them is something else entirel you know?
Jericho: I'm already counting up the rum I'm gonna owe Vee
Matthias Crowtooth: Having attempted to heal someone, and having attempted to seduce someone, I can confirm that they are not the same thing.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Jericho: Coughs
Levi Reed: You could if you pt a little effort into it
Jericho: Levi!
Jericho: Baffled
Rothuss Carder: Never quite understood how prudish some people can be, y'know?
Levi Reed: But you're just like "oh no poor me, the church is so importnatn"
Jericho: Why are you so insistent on me trying to seduce someone?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): they're called "happy ending" healing massages
-> Vee Barlett: Make a dex check twice please
Levi Reed: Like just think about yourself for awhile
Levi Reed: You'll get there
Vee Barlett: remind me how to hide that?
Rothuss Carder: It's like going dancing.
Jericho: Well, yes. But no matter how much I loved the church, I ainst seducing no one
Matthias Crowtooth: Yeah, why ARE you so insistent on having him take responsibility for his actions...?
Jericho: Laughs
-> Vee Barlett: Roll into the dice tower lower right corner
Vee Barlett: [TOWER] [CHECK] Dexterity (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 2] [d20 = 17]
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Vee Barlett: [TOWER] [CHECK] Dexterity (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 14] [d20 = 1]
Vee Barlett: that work?
-> Vee Barlett: AWESOME
Matthias Crowtooth -> Levi Reed: I miss our talks, and now I'm going to roll a dice without explanation
Jericho: And Prudish?
Jericho: Thinks about it
Vee Barlett: I hope that's the opposite of OK as in they're good rolls....
Matthias Crowtooth: [d20 = 8]
MeLange: Jericho is the one seduced... by the church!
Lirtimya: Just watching I'm assuming - or reading a book
Jericho: Wait what do you mean about that?
Jericho: Prudish?
Rothuss Carder: Well, can't think of a better term for it.
Jericho: Hey, I'm not exactly into men, but I'm not anti sex or anytihng
Jericho: Prudish?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol Lirt finds the book more interesting than their chatter - smart ;)
Jericho: Good gods man
MeLange: prudish is a trigger yall
Jericho: Prudish
Levi Reed -> Matthias Crowtooth: girl, same
Jericho: Do you know what that word is what you think it means?
Rothuss Carder: Funny, I was gonna ask you the same thing.
Rothuss Carder: grins.
Jericho: Get me some gods damned hand cuffs and I'll show you prudish
Jericho: Grunts
Levi Reed: Yeah, I'm sorry Jericho but...
Matthias Crowtooth: Prude.... Proood...... Where does that come from? I hear prude, think prune, and am not sure how that word came to be.
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Most likely, yes Carissa
Levi Reed: wow, yikes, ok
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): don't tempt Levi here, Jericho
Levi Reed: I'm just saying, this is the aura you project
Rothuss Carder: handcuffs, eh? Well, this is a side of you I don't think I've seen before.
Jericho: Hey I'm admitting my part in this fuckery, but I'm NOT prudish
Jericho: Stews
Rothuss Carder: bows.
Rothuss Carder: I apologize if I've offended.
Matthias Crowtooth: I mean, if you are involved in fuckery, you can still be prudish. Having sex doesn't make you a slut, you know.
Levi Reed: The fact that everyone here thought you were a prude until this very instant should give you pause for thought, my friend
Jericho: For FUCKS SAKE, DROP IT
MeLange: fuckery?
Jericho: So what, maybe some of ya'lls charm rubbed off on me.
MeLange: what fuckery is this?
Levi Reed: So anyway, should we go bust in there and save Vee or let her sweat it out?
Matthias Crowtooth: Anyways, having recovered from my coma, is there anything we can do to help Vee?
Jericho: Hell, call it rubbed off on me in a prusish way
Jericho: Yes let's go
MeLange: Jericho would love to bust in there
Rothuss Carder: I don't know about busting in, but being on hand if she should call for help would probably be nice.
Jericho: I've better things then to be insulted as a Prudish. A stick up my ass fine, but Prudish
Jericho: Grumbles
Levi Reed: I sent a note telling her to seduce him really good, I bet it would be a pleasant surprise if we all showed up to the party
MeLange: Jericho, you need a hug man?
MeLange: prompts
Carissa (Vee Barlett): too bad she didn't send one back that says, "yeah he knows about you all"
Jericho: I say, we DON"T barge in on her, for fear of screwing something up, but we stay nearby in case there's an issue
MeLange: come here buddy
Jericho: Sighs
Jericho: Hugs MeLange
Lirtimya: I can fill the room with fog, and we can get out of there quickly if needed.
MeLange: there we goo
Jericho: Don't you say a goddamn word Levi
Levi Reed: That's so BORING
Jericho: grunts
MeLange: isn't that nice?
Levi Reed: I want to catch the duke with his pants down. Not literally, figure of speech.
Matthias Crowtooth: If there is a room with fog, no one will see us stabby-stabby the duke guy
MeLange: sometimes boring is a classic
Levi Reed: Hand in the cookie jar
Levi Reed: You know, something not sexual
Jericho: Who's cookie jar?
Jericho: Is this another Prudish debate?
Jericho: Fuck it
Jericho: Let's go
Matthias Crowtooth: Gods below, what has been happening while I was gone.
Levi Reed: Well since you're anti prude, I'll let you lead the way
Jericho: I'll stay nearby in case a healer is needed but when it comes to sneaky sneaky I leave that to you
Jericho: And don't call me prude
Jericho: Almost shouts
Carissa (Vee Barlett): anarchy, matty, anarchy
Levi Reed: I SAID anti-prude
BOB To be clear you do NOT know where Vee is,
Jericho: Oh
Jericho: Deflates slightly
Levi Reed: Gods, just LISTEN to the words people say
Jericho: Huh
BOB Your librarian sent the note to someone to chase down Ruffus
Jericho: Yeah I got no comeback for that
BOB He is hard to miss with the pearl inlay leg
Jericho: I'm gonna log that one away
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, so how do we figure it out?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Anyone?
Shislif (MeLange): figure what out?
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I mean, I've got signaling, but for that to work we'd need to know where she is
Michael (Jericho): So the librarian found them, but not us
Michael (Jericho): Hm
Levi Reed: Lirt, you got any spells that can find a person?
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): I have detect noise. Can I use it as a Detect Scent instead? Pretty sure Vee isn't particular about bathing
BOB The librarian knows messengers, she does not know where exactly he is right now
BOB That is the job for the messengers
BOB the Irrregulars as it were
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Also, why didn't you have Matty do the seducing? I have a 15 in tumbling
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Michael (Jericho): lol
Lemon (Levi Reed): So does the messenger come back to collect payment or something?
Michael (Jericho): That's actually pretty funny haha
Lemon (Levi Reed): We can wait for him to get back and then ask
Shislif (MeLange): brb
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
BOB SO spending hours in the library
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Levi did try to seduce, but he apparently only had eyes for Vee and/or women
Lemon (Levi Reed): It's going to take hours???
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and someone Vee and Lirt are the only women in this crew?????
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, Levi tries to seduce everyone
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I've got nothing that could help us find her, except navigation and observation. Unless she left a giant signal of where she is
Carissa (Vee Barlett): *somehow
BOB you are waiting for the messenger to return
Michael (Jericho): I'm trying to think bob. I'm sorry I got nothing right away
Carissa (Vee Barlett): bat signal!
BOB I will go with the idea that once no one returns after a hour or three you will come up with another plan
The time is 10:00 PM
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Probably just check the most fancy hotels
Jericho: Walks up to Libarian. "Do you know where we migh find Rufus DeOrange by any chance?"
Rothuss Carder: Inns or taverns, maybe?
Rothuss Carder: It's always where I start looking for someone.
Matthias Crowtooth: Despite his name, he is said to be more of a pinkish tone.
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Lirtimya: I suggest checking the fancier inns first, then the taverns
Alianore Rainward: (the person doing story chat will fill in the correct name of the librarian here) I am certain that that young ruffian will be in a bar deep in his cups with some young woman who does not know what she is dealing with
Jericho: Blinks
Jericho: Oh
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lmao
Jericho: We are wondering if a young woman friend of ours might be with this ruffian
Levi Reed: Fantastic, any tips on which bar?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that poor sucker
Jericho: Do you happen to have any ideas on where we might look for her first?
Jericho: I do apologize for our more frantic tone
Alianore Rainward: There are several bars scattered in the next square over
Jericho: Nods
Alianore Rainward: There are two that have very nice views of the castle, perhaps he is there?
MeLange: bars?
Levi Reed: Sounds good, let's head that way
Jericho: Thank you so very much! We want to check on her. Do you know the names by any chance?
Levi Reed: Lirt, you done with these books or?
Matthias Crowtooth: runs off
Lirtimya: I'm ready to leave whenever
Alianore Rainward: The Royal Pig, the Gold Palm, and the Loaded Dice are the three that are the most well known
Michael (Jericho): (what is odd to me is that like....everyone seems to know this ruffian lol. It's kind of hilarious)
Levi Reed: I vote loaded dice
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Hard to miss a guy who is orange
Jericho: I sincerely appreciate your information ma'am. We just want to make sure she's safe.
Jericho: We worry you know?
Levi Reed: Ok, I'm going to dice. Lirt, you go to the gold palm and... um...
Alianore Rainward: I have not heard of him harming anyone, at least not physically
Lemon (Levi Reed): Tries to decide who's the most competent of the people who are left
Jericho: pauses
Levi Reed: Jericho, you go to the pig
Lirtimya: I can do that
Jericho: well....that's at least a better sceanior then I'm imagining right now. Thank you
Jericho: I'll go to the Pig
Levi Reed: Matty and Rothuss, pick your poison
Jericho: Anyone want to come with me?
Michael (Jericho): So me and Lirt to the Pig?
Lirtimya: I wouldn't mind someone with a bit of skill in fighting to come with me
MeLange: i'll come!
MeLange: what we doing?
Matthias Crowtooth: Uh.... I guess I will go with Levi
Jericho: Deflates a bit
Jericho: Deflates a bit
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Lirt is going to the dice
MeLange: don't you deflate in my direction Jericho
Jericho: Smiles
Jericho: My bad.
Matthias Crowtooth: Stay deflated if you aren't going to help with the seducing.
Lemon (Levi Reed): No, I'm going to the dice, lirt to the gold fan, jericho to the pig
MeLange: that's the correct response
Carissa (Vee Barlett): toss him with the seducer, Rothuss, it's like it's destiny
Levi Reed: Ok, Matty you go with Lirt
MeLange: I thought we were starting to get along, past the hump that kind of thing
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Ah got it! I misread that
Jericho: Slaps face
Matthias Crowtooth: waves his arms in frustration
MeLange: whoa
Matthias Crowtooth: Sure, I'll go with Lirt.
BOB All puns intended Sharif
Jericho: MeLange, I think we all tood it out of context
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Jericho: I'm heading ot the Pig now
Levi Reed: Mel and Rothuss, one to the pig, one to the dice, choose now
Levi Reed: Or I will choose for you
Jericho: I'm legitimately worried. Vee can take care of herself, but I did help cause this issue
Lemon (Levi Reed): (God, I say this so many times a day in preschool)
MeLange: Fine Mr. Bossy
BOB chuckles
MeLange: I go PIg
Michael (Jericho): I taught college and said it a few times. People don't change, they just get bigger
Levi Reed: Alright, Rothuss you're with me
Lirtimya: Let's go, the less time we take the less time Vee has to suffer with that fool
BOB OK so we are at the Golden Palm
Shislif (MeLange): to be fair Mel already said he would go with Jericho
Rothuss Carder: Righty-ho, Levi! Lead on!
Falk Handrick: Puts out a strong arm to block your path in the door
Falk Handrick: We are full
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): (which group is this? I lost track)
Lirtimya: We don't plan to stay, we're looking for a friend, been out too long we're worried
Falk Handrick: Good for you to worry, but you are not getting in
Matthias Crowtooth: Ducks under the arm and keeps moving
Falk Handrick: GRABS Matty
Matthias Crowtooth: [CHECK] Dexterity (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 3] [d20 = 18]
Falk Handrick: THUMPS him down in the street
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): well, bloop
Matthias Crowtooth: Well, bloop
Michael (Jericho): couldjust ask if Rufus Deorange is in tonight
Lirtimya: Could you at least tell us if they're in there?
Matthias Crowtooth: coughs
Matthias Crowtooth: Sorry, was worried about my friend and lost my composure, friend.
Falk Handrick: If you give me a reason to
Lirtimya: Just sighs and Mattias getting thrown for trying to walk by the arm
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Shislif (MeLange): brb refill
Lirtimya: Because otherwise if something happens to her it'll be on you
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
Matthias Crowtooth: Your good deeds will live in song and dance among my people if you tell us.
Falk Handrick: Nice try but I am not your friends keeper
Matthias Crowtooth: grumbles and offers a silver
Falk Handrick: It seems like if something happens to her it will be on you for abandoning her
Carissa (Vee Barlett): come on lawyer lirt! pull out some legal mumbo jumbo!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): fake or not!
Lirtimya: Scowls
Falk Handrick: Makes the coin disapear
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): from across the street? Impressive
Lirtimya: Listen, I was just reading in the legal section at the library, it would be your fault, seeing as you seem to be the security here, you're responsible
Lemon (Levi Reed): Pocket lawyer strikes again!
Matthias Crowtooth: Plus, you just accepted a silver to tell us. We'd appreciate it, friend.
Falk Handrick: I would be responsible you are right. I would be responsible if I let you in and someone got in trouble because I was not following the regulations. So that means you should be glad I am so responsible and I am not letting you in
Falk Handrick: To tell you what?
Matthias Crowtooth: Can you at least tell us if they are in?
Falk Handrick: I have not heard yet a who
Falk Handrick: Can you hear a who?
Lemon (Levi Reed): What are the regulations?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Is this like in Labyrinth? "None shall pass without my permission!" "Well, may we have your permission?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (be like Mario, make it up, Section 7, Subsection 10 of the Treaty of Demise or something)
Michael (Jericho): Rufus deorange is a prettty solid bet wince we knew Vee was likely with him
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Oh I'm forgetting, what was the fake name Vee gave herself?
BOB Grins if Lirt can make things up....
Matthias Crowtooth: A Rufus deOrange, and a young lady
Lemon (Levi Reed): Violet
Carissa (Vee Barlett): come on Lirt, I believe in you! she reads so she can easily toss things at him
Matthias Crowtooth: Well, you may not have realized she was a lady based on how she looked, but she tells me she is.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wow. ouch.
Lirtimya: Matt!!
Matthias Crowtooth: Of course, she is a known liar, and doesn't act very lady-like, thinking of it...
Matthias Crowtooth: What?
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): One ! not 2
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Falk Handrick: Deorange is not in town, at least he has not been here in a couple of months
Falk Handrick: If that is who you think stole your girl then you are chasing ghosts
Matthias Crowtooth: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 10) [FAILURE by 10] [d20 = 20]
Lirtimya: Well, according to the law and your conscious, which is more important? Following a rule about spacing, or helping save someone?
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): I have no idea if he is telling the truth, sorry
Carissa (Vee Barlett): is now when we tell matty that lirt got the promotion or do we wait?
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Should I roll wisdon too?
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): I am alone with Lirt and a knife, so now is good
Michael (Jericho): Are there ayn windows you could look through if you still have doubts?
Falk Handrick: [d20 = 14]
Falk Handrick: I told you he is not in here,
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Matty: Wait, Lirt got the promotion...? So... if I want you to keep quiet about a murder you are about to witness, do I give you another silver, Falk?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Then what did you roll that d20 for, ehhhh?
Falk Handrick: If you think I am lying to you then you have more issues than a missing friend
Matthias Crowtooth: Plenty more issues, unfortunately.
Matthias Crowtooth: Many, many more issues that I am sure Lirt and I will be talking about in raised voices in the near future.
Lirtimya: Scowls, having taken quite the disliking to Falk
Matthias Crowtooth: But, if you swear that they aren't here, we will have no choice but to believe you.
Michael (Jericho): I mean....I worked security for two years and hated people like us so.....
Michael (Jericho): I think we approached that quite wrong lol
Michael (Jericho): :D
Michael (Jericho): At least you dind't threaten to go after his job and bitch about his repuatiotion to his manager and try to get him fired
Falk Handrick: Looks Matty up and down
Lemon (Levi Reed): Good, can't wait to see what Jericho does during his turn
Michael (Jericho): (In this world, I still won't do it right would be my guess)
Falk Handrick: I have not seen Deorange in months
Lirtimya: Let's head to the next place Matt, they're not here, and I'd rather you not say something and get beat up in a sidestreet.
Matthias Crowtooth: Then I thank you for your time and am sorry for the rough nature of our meeting.
Falk Handrick: I am clean
Lemon (Levi Reed): BS, he's so not sorry
Falk Handrick: Have a pleasant evening
Matthias Crowtooth: waves and runs off
Michael (Jericho): Is Lirtimya actually a lawyer goal? That's pretty cool if she is
Lirtimya: nods and follows Matt
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (and he totally doesn't run like Steven Seagal)
Michael (Jericho): We could always use a good lawyer :D
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Not a lawyer, just making stuff up
Shislif (MeLange): lol
BOB So now over to the Royal Pig
Michael (Jericho): eh, close enough :)
Michael (Jericho): I'm about to be punished
MeLange: Why they call it The "Royal Pig"?
MeLange: Jericho?
Jericho: Inns are just named after thing syou know?
Jericho: They sometimes have good stories
MeLange: so they know a royal pig?
Jericho: And sometimes....
Jericho: well
User has gone AFK. (JtomTMO)
Jericho: Er
Kyrtaar Calauth: GRABS the drunk by the neck and THROWS several quick jabs into his gut
Kyrtaar Calauth: [d20 = 16]
MeLange: whoa!
Kyrtaar Calauth: [d20 = 4]
Carissa (Vee Barlett): duno, just know Vee keeps claiming it - up to Lirt to decide if she wants that to be true
Jericho: Throws an arm out to stop MeLange
MeLange: violence
Carissa (Vee Barlett): LOL you got the blood dice??
Kyrtaar Calauth: AND STAY OUT
Jericho: Uh yes, I quite agree
BOB Grins did you doubt I would?
MeLange: Don't worry I'm good
MeLange: not looking to fight
MeLange: yet
Jericho: Yeah, you're better at that sort of thing then me
MeLange: than me
Jericho: I think our bouncer has had a tiring evening
Kyrtaar Calauth: Tosses the uncouncous body off to the side
MeLange: sure looks that way
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol I don't always pay attention to the emails but BLOOD DICE made me need to look
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Is that the cue for Matty to jump out with chloroform, Jericho?
MeLange: Hello sir!
MeLange: I like your form!
Jericho: Are you okay?
Kyrtaar Calauth: HEY Kollor you need to clean up the front again
Kyrtaar Calauth: Looks Melange over
Kyrtaar Calauth: grunts, Thanks
Jericho: Did that man hurt you?
Jericho: glances at teh unconsious man
Kyrtaar Calauth: That shrimp?
MeLange: really threw that guy for good distance, and without throwing out your back, that's skill
Jericho: Hell I'll say
Kyrtaar Calauth: Nods, thanks
Jericho: Loooks at the man
Kyrtaar Calauth: He should be fine in the morning
Jericho: Sighs in releif
Carissa (Vee Barlett): i forgot how stressful it is to watch the world series
MeLange: he's breathing
Jericho: I mean, that was actually kind of cool, if not somethign I would wish on myself
MeLange: I told you this guys has skills
Jericho: Shrugs
MeLange: there's a beauty to violence at times
MeLange: I'm MeLange sir, it's a pleasure to watch you work
MeLange: gestures towards the bouncer
Kyrtaar Calauth: Kyrtarr
Jericho: Hey We sincerely apologize for bothering you, and we certainly don't want to end up like that, so would you mind if we looked for our sister? She was last seen with a Rufus De'Orange? We just want to make sure she's okay. We don't want to cause you any trouble
Kyrtaar Calauth: What can I do for you
MeLange: a pleasure Kyrtarr
Kyrtaar Calauth: That is easy
Jericho: Perks up
Jericho: Is she okay?
Kyrtaar Calauth: I have not seen Deorange in a couple of months
Kyrtaar Calauth: hard to miss him
Jericho: Deflates a bit
MeLange: oh that's a long t ime
Kyrtaar Calauth: [d20 = 6]
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): keep it in the pants, Jericho
MeLange: sorry my friend here used to be a balloon
Jericho: Ah, well I sincerely do appreciate your time. You helped a lot more then most. Thank you so very much
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): lol
Jericho: And to be honest, it actually was kind of cool to watch that
Lemon (Levi Reed): loll
Jericho: so
Jericho: Damn
Kyrtaar Calauth: Why are you so concerned about Deorange
Lemon (Levi Reed): So now we know that flattery will get us everywhere with Michael
Kyrtaar Calauth: mostly it is the young fops or girls looking for trouble
Jericho: Shakes head
Jericho: It' snot him we are worried about
Jericho: Grins
Jericho: our sister is a bit more of our worry
Kyrtaar Calauth: How did you lose your sister?
MeLange: Yea Jericho
Jericho: Would you laugh if I said she went looking for De Orange?
MeLange: how did we lose her?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, you know how it is with women. Can't trust them to make their own decisions.
Jericho: Winces
Jericho: I know it's dumb, we just worry
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Shislif (MeLange): I think Vee will be fine, why are we doing this anyway?
Kyrtaar Calauth: It is good to worry about family
Shislif (MeLange): silly Jericho
MeLange: yea but sometimes a person can also worry too much
MeLange: just saying
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): So we can bust in on her drinking rum out of a bottle with a living orange and hold it over her head for the rest of her life, Shislif
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
MeLange: lol fair
Shislif (MeLange): OOC
Jericho: I know all right? I'm sorry sir. I just get worried easily. The local librarian said he's a bit of a ruffian, which is fine, but I worry nontheless
Lemon (Levi Reed): Well we have to do SOMETHING
Kyrtaar Calauth: Which librarian?
Jericho: Sigh
Lemon (Levi Reed): We can't just sit around at the library all night
MeLange: It's true Kyrtaar
BOB See BOB can be evil
MeLange: Jericho loves to worry
TMO (Rothuss Carder): this town has more than ONE librarian???? O_O
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh we already knew BOB could be evil
Jericho: Shrugs. Someone down the street at the lbirary. Thataway
Jericho: Points
Lemon (Levi Reed): That was never in question
Kyrtaar Calauth: [d20 = 13]
Jericho: I was pretty sure it was a librariran, but quite a few messengeers were coming and going I think
Jericho: Shrugs
Kyrtaar Calauth: Shrugs
Jericho: I just assumed
MeLange: Jericho assumes often
MeLange: it's like a hobby
Jericho: Look I know I'm dumb okay
Jericho: Sighs at Melange
MeLange: whoa whoa whoa
Kyrtaar Calauth: It is good to have hobbies
MeLange: enough with the harsh self talk Jericho
MeLange: uncalled for buddy
Lemon (Levi Reed): Maybe he's dumb but he is NOT a prude
Michael (Jericho): LOL
Jericho: Deep breath
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Jericho: I'm sorry. Just a bit worked up. Vee is a pain in my ass, but she's still family
MeLange: you're not dumb Jericho, you're passionate
Jericho: Rolls eyes
MeLange: which is cool, just needs direction
Jericho: Shaeks head. How do we ever get on these topics
TMO (Rothuss Carder): let's just swap the first letters of those, okay? Not dumb, not a prude. Swap the first letters, so it becomes Plum Dude.
Kyrtaar Calauth: I would say you are not drinking enough
MeLange: well i think it's a good topic
MeLange: what solution do you propose Kyrtaar?
Kyrtaar Calauth: Talk Less, Smile More
Jericho: Anyways Kyrtaer, I appreciate your time. i know you might be on duty, but here's for when you get off? I'm not sure what this will buy here, but I hope it does well for you. Thanks for not being cruel about me over woryying.
Jericho: Offers a silver
MeLange: good advice
Kyrtaar Calauth: Takes the coin, Thank you
Jericho: God life lessons all around today
Jericho: Maybe I should take up drinking
Jericho: And don't you dare tell the others I said that MeLange
MeLange: It's been a pleasure to watch you work Kyrtaar, may your days be long and restful
Kyrtaar Calauth: Nods,
<font color="#000000">Jericho spent 1 GP on
Kyrtaar Calauth: Be safe
MeLange: I won't tell them Jericho
MeLange: aat some point you'll have to start trusting me
Michael (Jericho): Hm. I didn't break change correctly I don't think
Michael (Jericho): I'll have to figure out later
MeLange Nods
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol no it did not
Jericho: Waves kindly
Jericho: Let's go. One more bar eh?
MeLange: don't wave nod, we were all nodding
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's fine, I noticed some discrepencies in the money that anyways I need to sort later
BOB and so our last group at the last bar
Jericho: Oh
Jericho: Changes to Nod
MeLange: nice
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but note to self: Jericho spent one SILVER not one GOLD
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Jericho: Yes. Very much yes
Jericho: Holy shit
Michael (Jericho): Doesn't help that screen is SO HARD to read haha
Michael (Jericho): but that's the engines fault
Shislif (MeLange): true
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): but note to self: Matty ran back and gave the security guy 15 gold for dealing with Lirt-the-no-good-job-stealer
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
GM: [d100 = 2]
Michael (Jericho): wait what?
Ailís Redshadow: HAH
Ailís Redshadow: That was doule or nothing
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that's either REALLY good or REALLY bad
Ailís Redshadow: so now you owe me... um
TMO (Rothuss Carder): is this Levi and me, or someone else?
Ailís Redshadow: I think that was up to 20 pickles?
Michael (Jericho): (10 SP to 1 gold)
Michael (Jericho): (Right?)
Levi Reed: Yummm, pickles
Naamah Orbarrow: Sigh, it was 40 but I should only let you have 20 just to teach you how to count
Ailís Redshadow: I know how to count just fine
Ailís Redshadow: See
Ailís Redshadow: 1
Ailís Redshadow: 2
Ailís Redshadow: POKES two fingers at her eyes
Ailís Redshadow: Looks over at Levi and Rthuss
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): (is this a gully dwarf?)
<font color="#000000">Jericho added 9 SP on
Ailís Redshadow: Can I help you ... gentleman?
Naamah Orbarrow: GentleMEN
Naamah Orbarrow: They are two
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (what's the name of the place we were headed?
Jericho: [SKILL] Gaming [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 8] [d20 = 5]
Naamah Orbarrow: again with the counting
Michael (Jericho): What are they playing?
Levi Reed: Just looking for a friend of mine, but wouldn't mind a game after making sure she's ok
Rothuss Carder: Oh, are you a gambler? I didn't know that.
Ailís Redshadow: Oh a she
Michael (Jericho): (OHI"M SORRY)
Ailís Redshadow: Well I suppose that is to be expected
Michael (Jericho): (It's just those two right now right?)
Michael (Jericho): (My bad)
Ailís Redshadow: a fine young man like you
Ailís Redshadow: Have to expect you to have a girl
Naamah Orbarrow: Again with the counting
Michael (Jericho): BRB, taking5 min
Levi Reed: Oh, not really a gambler per se, but I like a game once in awhile
Naamah Orbarrow: Look at him, he could have two three five
User has gone AFK. (Michael)
Levi Reed: But nah, the ladies aren't my type. She's just a friend, trying to watch out for her safety
Shislif (MeLange): also taking like 10 mins
Rothuss Carder: I'll admit, I'm not entirely sure...
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
Rothuss Carder: looks over at Levi.
Rothuss Carder: IS she your girl?
Levi Reed: Heard she was out with some DeOrange fellow who might be up to no good
Ailís Redshadow: So you are more into men
Ailís Redshadow: that is disapointing
Rothuss Carder: Ah, say no more! I retract the question!
Ailís Redshadow: are you sure I cannot change you?
Levi Reed: Pretty sure but you never know until you try, right?
Levi Reed: winks
Naamah Orbarrow: Nudges, so he is looking for Deorange, using this mysterious female friend
Naamah Orbarrow: I bet he has a hankering
Levi Reed: Why, is he good looking?
Ailís Redshadow: Too bad he is not in town
Levi Reed: Think I could get him?
Ailís Redshadow: I would be glad to make sure you two were togther
Naamah Orbarrow: SLAPS her arm
Naamah Orbarrow: Again counting!
Naamah Orbarrow: There are two of them!
Naamah Orbarrow: So that makes how many?
Ailís Redshadow: Three
Naamah Orbarrow: SLAPS
Naamah Orbarrow: FOUR
Rothuss Carder: casually strolls around in a small area, just taking a look at what's going on here, while they're absorbed talking to Levi.
Naamah Orbarrow: Deorange me you and him, points to Levi
Naamah Orbarrow: Learn to count
Lemon (Levi Reed): I just feel like everything is always a dead end. I never know what to do.
BOB Rothus can make an observatoin check
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but you're trying! so Vee knows you care! and might charge a little less if she succeeds!
TMO (Rothuss Carder): he could if he had it. he's not an overly observant fellow
BOB and Lemon, you all need to try and listen and see what you can gather for future things
Rothuss Carder: motions to himself where the girls can't see him, asking Levi if he wants Rothuss to step in or stay out.
BOB For example it would be out of character but the three places you are going to are teh three best BARS in the square across from the castle while Deorange took Vee to the second best INN on the square in front of the library
BOB So yes you are in the fourth part of the chase scenes in this story arc
Lemon (Levi Reed): That kind of detail is not ever going to thing I will be good at
BOB 1 - chase to Osterhold 2 - chase around Osterhold and parties 3 - Chase by ships to Mizzen 4 - chase on the island to track him down
<font color="#000000">Rothuss Carder converted 1 GP to 10 SP, 0 refunded
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but we may need to know these bars when we come back to Mizzen so it's still good to explore the place
BOB So at the end of these three story arcs you will have had a chance at multiple types of encounters, scenes, etc.
BOB and you found the church you like, a Bards College to train at, a library for future research, etc.
BOB It is all very good world building
Lemon (Levi Reed): So it's not all pointless even though it feels pointless, is what you're saying
BOB and this is the 11th session overall
BOB Very few things are ever pointless
BOB But yes this in particular is definately NOT
Levi Reed: Well, I'm ready to head out Reginald, unless you want to stay for a game?
Lemon (Levi Reed): (to Rothuss, can't remember his fake name he's been using)
Rothuss Carder: One second, fellow, let me ask a quick question.
BOB and yes Rothuss and Levi can stay and gamble if you have that skill, just make a check
Ailís Redshadow: Yes?
Lemon (Levi Reed): I do not have it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol I like how Levi is just tossing out fake names for everything without realizing Vee had specific reasons/scenarios she does it
Shislif (MeLange): i mean i got a fighter over here
Rothuss Carder: leans forward and puts his hand flat down on the table between them.
Rothuss Carder: Ladies, I can help a bit with the counting, if you'd like. We're looking for DeOrange, just to make sure our friend is okay. For the counting, how's this?
Rothuss Carder: moves one finger aside on the table, then another, to reveal 2 silver coins flat on the table
Ailís Redshadow: If I see him I will be grateful for the coin
Ailís Redshadow: But who should I tell him is looking for him?
Rothuss Carder: Do you know where we'd be likely to find him?
Ailís Redshadow: and what do you think I should do to find you?
Rothuss Carder: No no, no introductions needed. If all is well, we won't bother him. We just want to check in for ourselves.
Ailís Redshadow: Oh I am certain when he comes he will come down with the Duke's son and spend his coin freely
Rothuss Carder: Where?
Naamah Orbarrow: HAH spreading his coin freely
Ailís Redshadow: Oh all around
Ailís Redshadow: The two squares here are always busy
Lemon (Levi Reed): Levi and Lemon both equally are bad at subleties such as fake names
Rothuss Carder: No favorites? No bars or inns he goes to often?
Lemon (Levi Reed): and details like inn vs bar
Ailís Redshadow: Deorange is generous everywhere he goes
Ailís Redshadow: I rarely see him without the Duke's son
Rothuss Carder: Well, that's too bad. I was hoping for something a bit more definite. I guess we'll be moving on then.
Rothuss Carder: picks up coins.
BOB and another point that Lemon is likely missing there is a Duke of Osterhold and a Duke of Mizzen
Shislif (MeLange): Lemon misses nothing
BOB and others also not picking on Lemon
Rothuss Carder: Does the Duke's son have any habits?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Lemon misses everything
Lemon (Levi Reed): You're thinking of Carissa
Shislif (MeLange): oh right :)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you picked up good things, too, it's in the summaries
Naamah Orbarrow: I particularly do like Valengar
Naamah Orbarrow: He has always been nice when he comes, makes sure to take care of his guards
Michael (Jericho): back. sorry about that
Naamah Orbarrow: they do take up some space but overall it is a good thing
Levi Reed: Whereabouts could we find his guards?
Rothuss Carder: Valengar's the son? Nice. It's good to have a popular leader.
Naamah Orbarrow: I suppose up in the palace
Rothuss Carder: Alright, thank you, ladies.
Rothuss Carder: hands 1 coin to each.
Rothuss Carder: 1, ... and 2.
Naamah Orbarrow: Beams and watches to see if Ailis catches on
Ailís Redshadow: Thank you sir
Naamah Orbarrow: Rolls her eyes quietly
Ailís Redshadow: Are you going to stay?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I can NOT tell which spot is which coinage on the Spend Currency page. the background is so dark the words disappear
Ailís Redshadow: I can get you a table
Rothuss Carder: bows
Rothuss Carder: Thank you, but maybe later. We have business first.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): goldis top right, silver is right below it
BOB Sorry for that TMO it is the Theme we are using, next Era will be different and hopefully easier
<font color="#000000">Rothuss Carder spent 2 SP on
Carissa (Vee Barlett): left is PP, EP, then CP
BOB So the group all gathers back at teh square
BOB it is getting late
TMO (Rothuss Carder): had to take off my glasses and squint at the screen from about 3 inches out. :D
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
BOB and the other problem to solve is ..... where are you sleeping tonight
Carissa (Vee Barlett): something something old person joke
BOB and for Carissa
BOB Vee goes up to the second floor and realizes Ruffus did not tell her which room. She starts to turn around and a small key falls out from the wire around the bottle of rum. She (rolls Dex and fails) and does not manage to catch it before it hits the ground. She shakes her head and picks it up. Looking at the key in her hand and at the doors in the hallway she considers and then chooses the second from the end doorway. The key works and the door opens. Vee sets the rum down on the dressing table and quickly scans the room for anyone else. She checks the window and unlocks it for a quick escape. After only a few moments Ruffus walks into the room, pulls a second bottle of rum from his bag and sets it next to the other one. He smiles at Vee and moves over to wrap his fingers around her….. {imagination with Vee rolling a 1 for her Dex check in rope use and other activities} When Vee is calmer and breathing closer to normal, she slips out of the ropes and slides the blindfold off she sees the windows wide open and one bottle of rum on the dressing table.
Levi Reed: Well, let's head to an inn and see if we find some nice rooms for the night
Carissa (Vee Barlett): damnit so that AWESOME was equal to an OK??
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hmm...
Lemon (Levi Reed): I've read horror stories like that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh duh
Michael (Jericho): Okay, so caught up. So he played us like fiddles?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (let's first see if that handkerchief is still potent? she can try to "play around" and get it near his face? put your own imagination in there)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and/or tie him after that.... so going to guess...
BOB Also by the way I now have 170 different combinations of dice skins I can use
Vee Barlett: [SKILL] Rope Use [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 3] [d20 = 12]
Vee Barlett: [CHECK] Dexterity (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 16]
Vee Barlett: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 8] [d20 = 6]
BOB The windows are open, he is not in the room
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh well that's easier, probably.... grab the other bottle, quick check if the cap is loose, grab her clothes, and do that rope roll down? :P
Carissa (Vee Barlett): IF it's the right rum
Carissa (Vee Barlett): she's not leaving unless it's the right one
BOB What do you want to do to check that?
Vee Barlett: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 12) [FAILURE by 8] [d20 = 20]
Carissa (Vee Barlett): damn it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ....shake it? lol
Lemon (Levi Reed): He tied you up and left you. That's literally horror stories
Vee Barlett: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 10]
BOB Yes there is something inside the bottle
Michael (Jericho): Yeah, if it had been any worse, iwould have drawn the STOP card. i draw the line at the more drker shit
BOB No the bottle is not open
BOB Has not been opened
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but it is the second bottle? she may just have to take a chance here
BOB and who says he tied her up? she was tied up and she is the one with rope use and rolled a 1 on her check
Michael (Jericho): She...tied herself up?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh so she rolled really bad then REALLY good got it
Michael (Jericho): Honestly kind of onfused
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh Vee, surprising even me
Lemon (Levi Reed): I mean, yeah, seems like it would be difficult to tie yourself up, but what do I know
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but smarter to tie yourself up so you can make a knot you know you can ease out of easier
BOB See
Michael (Jericho): So...not tyring to be confused, but what happened here?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): thinking ahead there
Carissa (Vee Barlett): they did the nakey dance with ropes
Michael (Jericho): .........
Michael (Jericho): okay
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the "fun ropes" as Matty's friend calls them
Michael (Jericho): got it...kind of
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Ahem
Michael (Jericho): as longas it was consensual
Lemon (Levi Reed): The fun ropes or the normal kind?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so before Vee grabs that rum and runs, any other ideas from others?
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Wait, how did you know I called them that?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): something IS inside
Lemon (Levi Reed): Check the other bottle too?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): find some bleach?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): because that girl at the party told us
Carissa (Vee Barlett): bleach is for later, or her preference of a long deep swim in the sea
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): ooooh..... yea..... heh....
Michael (Jericho): I want to know why he left exactly what you wanted there, but then left. He's not a moron. He didn't tell you what he wanted from you?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): is the second bottle there, too, Bob?
BOB No only one bottle
Carissa (Vee Barlett): does the inn have a pitcher?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you know, like how most hotels have glasses and ice chest and all that?
BOB Not in the room
Carissa (Vee Barlett): does she have her flask on her??? or a bucket? some kind of container???
BOB She has her flask
Carissa (Vee Barlett): water bladder??
Michael (Jericho): I mean, don't waste the rum. It's really old and all that
BOB There is the guarderrobe
Michael (Jericho): lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): a wut
Michael (Jericho): that's my word, you can't have it :D

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ok ok hold on just trying to see if I can think of anything else
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh hey she does have a waterskin in her items....
Lemon (Levi Reed): I mean, check around the room, see if he left anything else interesting?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): could a flask and a waterskin hold rum?
Michael (Jericho): I'm really sorry, but I need to leave in a few minutes. I'm packing up for drive back to Utah. Is there anythign I can do to help or contribute before I head out bob?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): pffft she's too rattled to do that, didn't you see her OBS roll?
Michael (Jericho): I know this is bad timing. I apologize
BOB I think you are good Michael
BOB Vee will get out of this escape room soon enough
GM: I think you are good Michael

BOB and dodges the guard that is supposed to be looking around but look the wrong way
BOB How is the family feeling Ryan?
BOB Everyone mostly healed?
Levi Reed: Haunted houses are the worst
Lemon (Levi Reed): ooc
Dru5232321 (Matthias Crowtooth): Oh, I was the only one who was injured. I have full mobility again, just a bit stiff

Vee Barlett: Shut up and don't drop this.
Vee Barlett: turns around and puts her clothes back on
Lirtimya: Sighs and waves at Vee
Vee Barlett: See if one of you can make sure it's the right one.
Levi Reed: giggles just a tiny bit
Vee Barlett: Or I have a fish to filet.
Levi Reed: Lirt? You got some holy spell or something?
Levi Reed: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 9]
Lirtimya: Holy spell? No
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I don't even have detect magic learned right now
Carissa (Vee Barlett): detect magic or anything like that by chance? or we'll just have to... shake it again or something, maybe
Carissa (Vee Barlett): darn
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we need those empty bottles from the hobo to pour the rum out, lol
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Well I have it, but not memorized
Levi Reed: No way to check if it's a holy item in there or anything?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Maybe you just know from being in the church?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): sadly our brewing magic detecting priest is gone now
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but someone might have some good rolls here?
BOB Lirt is not from the church that would be Jericho or Ava
Rothuss Carder: Is alcohol holy?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we could wait until morning with Lirt memorizing that spell and hope for the best
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I have a 16 in observation and intelegence, if I can see the thing inside I may be able to tell?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, my bad

Lirtimya: We may want to go somewhere more private
Vee Barlett: ....pulls them over into the shadows first away from the alley, guard, and people
Rothuss Carder: puts his hand on Lirt's elbow and guides her to a more secluded area
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I have a 13 in fishing I could fish it lol
Levi Reed: Maybe we should get a room somewhere. Were teh rooms here, nice, violet?
Vee Barlett: Fuck you.
Levi Reed: Hey, if he was into me, I would have done it for you

Levi Reed: Alright, pick a direction and we'll go to whatever inn you want
Levi Reed: My treat
Vee Barlett: No. I'm not making anymore decisions tonight. You lead. I need to clear my head.
Lirtimya: Or if we want somewhere quiet we could go back to the library
Lirtimya: mutters that out
Vee Barlett: Library sounds good.
Levi Reed: Oh, Lirt, that's genius!
Levi Reed: Yes, let's do that
Vee Barlett: This is why she got promoted.
The time is 11:00 PM
Rothuss Carder: We might need to purchase a membership if we go back too often.
Lirtimya: I'm fine with that
Vee Barlett: That's a tomorrow problem.
BOB You did leave so yes you have to purchase again
BOB Pay for another day
Levi Reed: Yeah, that's honestly not a bad idea, at least for Lirt here. Bet she could get some use out of them books
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, that's fine, Levi's buying
BOB grins
Lemon (Levi Reed): How many do we have now?
BOB So you go in
Lemon (Levi Reed): Do some math tmo
BOB You introduce Vee to the gorilla
BOB Who is sleeping peacefully
Lemon (Levi Reed): That gorilla sleeps a lot
BOB and then you get a chance to be quiet in private and discuss what to do with what you know
BOB brb restroom
Vee Barlett: sighs and slides down into a chair
Vee Barlett: Give me good news, Matey. Is it the right bottle?
Lirtimya: Goes to the sea section and grabs a book at random, then comes back to the rest and sits next to Vee
Vee Barlett: So you trashed his bags.
Levi Reed: Well, we weren't trying to
Vee Barlett: What'd you do with his stuff?
Levi Reed: But when we reached in, something was stabby stabby
Levi Reed: So we had to slash them
Vee Barlett: closes eyes for a minute for composure
Vee Barlett: That's why you use a dagger to catch the needle.
Vee Barlett: Don't matter. He knew either way so no reason to hdie it.
Levi Reed: Look, I don't ever claim to be the smart one here
Levi Reed: And uh... MeL and Matty are... you know... kind of like me
Lirtimya: Unfortunatly I was preoccupied at the time
Vee Barlett: nods
Vee Barlett: That explains some of it.
Lemon (Levi Reed): What DID we do with his stuff? I don't remember
Vee Barlett: But to shred it? A little... extra, yeah?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (you have it)
Levi Reed: But I got the stuff here!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well you and/or Rothuss
Levi Reed: hands it over
Vee Barlett: plucks up the bottles of rum and nods to drop the rest on the floor
Levi Reed: Haven't really looked at much other than the rum
Levi Reed: dumps the rest out to see what good stuff we stole
Vee Barlett: These are interest. Get that messenger you sent me to give the rest back to him. Ain't reason to keep it.
Lirtimya: Opens the book and begins reading, still listening, but book
Levi Reed: Ughhh, fiiiine
Levi Reed: packs everything up again
Vee Barlett: The problem bein' he ain't an idiot. And he's got connections. I know y'all knew to this, but can't full be on his bad side. Gotta humor him.
Levi Reed: but checking while repacking in case there's anything else interesting
Carissa (Vee Barlett): *new
Rothuss Carder: So what do we do now?
Vee Barlett: Besides, I ain't ruling out his usefulness down the road. And I'm sure he's doin' the same.
Levi Reed: Make sure this is the thing we need and get it back to teh cathedral so Jericho doesn't die
Vee Barlett: Not yet.
Vee Barlett: Kids nice and all, but worth seducing a scallywag for? Nah.
Vee Barlett: But that stamp... I know a good buyer if it can be duplicated.
Vee Barlett: Unless any of you.... well, unless Lirt knows a good way.
Levi Reed: I mean... I would assume there would be a lot of good buyers
Vee Barlett: nods slowly
Levi Reed: Considering it's supposed to bring endless wealth
Vee Barlett: Come on, Levi. You can guess my buyer, yeah?
Levi Reed: Yeah, your new beau
Levi Reed: Or your Pa
Vee Barlett: If I wasn't sore, I'd give you a black eye to match Matty.
Levi Reed: Or any number of people
Vee Barlett: nods
Vee Barlett: and grins
Lirtimya: I'm a cartogtapher Vee, not an artist unfortunatly, I wouldn't be able to duplicate the stamp
Levi Reed: He's not going to give you the ship you want until he's dead, Vee
Vee Barlett: I'd rather find a way to duplicate it myself so I can get a bigger cut, but if I can't then I bet Pa or Dad have a way.
Levi Reed: Wait, is that all it is? I figured it had some magic stuck to it
Rothuss Carder: It'd probably take a pro to duplicate it. They don't make them easy to copy.
Vee Barlett: Hmm, maybe once we take it out we cna see, Lirt. I have faith in your abilities. But, truth be told, ain't sure how to so... might be misplaced faith.
Vee Barlett: Yeah.... once my head is clear, maybe I can think of someone in the morning. Otherwise, just gonna have to settle for a smaller cut from my dads.
Vee Barlett: But I ain't returning this to Jericho and his church until I get SOME profit outta it.
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Artistic Ability [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 14]
Lirtimya: I could give it a try, but I doubt it would work
Levi Reed: Hey, I'm an artist, don't forget!
BOB I will give Rothuss a wisdom check also
Vee Barlett: 'Ppreciate it, Lirt. We'll see what we can do once we find out if that stamp is in here.
Vee Barlett: Only good thing for Jericho is his big mouth made the item to hot or else they might wanna just keep it themselves.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (TMOOOOOOO)
Rothuss Carder: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 9) [SUCCESS by 6] [d20 = 3]
BOB Also because Lirt went up in level she has another spell slot to use each day so can memorize Detect Magic
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (sorry, also chatting on FB with new nephew)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oooh as in she can cast it now?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Babies can use facebook?
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I will memorize a detect magic then!
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I don't think I can now though
-> Rothuss Carder: If the church knows this is missing they will be asking questions when you return it so perhaps being careful about what happens between now and then.......
BOB No to Carissa still needs to memorize in the morning etc
Rothuss Carder: So.. who exactly asked you to recover these again?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): sad
BOB But instead of two spells can do three spells now
Vee Barlett: Priestess at Sunset Temple. That's a tomorrow tomorrow problem.
Vee Barlett: Or a priest problem.
Vee Barlett: She asked ALL of us, Rothuss. You ain't getting outta trouble easy here, either.
BOB So walking it through OOC
BOB Temple of the Orange Sunsets (your local temple, Ava, Jericho, etc) had the two bottles stolen
Rothuss Carder: Well, if only this priestess knows these are missing, showing them to any other priest might cause some awkward questions.
BOB Gave you a secret mission to retrieve them because a tax stamp was hidden inside
Rothuss Carder: Just saying.
BOB Then you blurted out about the secret mission to many people
Vee Barlett: rollls eyes
Vee Barlett: Jericho is the one who told the cathedral. He's the one with the death sentence. You miss that?
BOB including the priests at the Cathedral at Osterhold
BOB Who then put a Geas on Jericho to bring the tax stamp to them
BOB So you have three sealed bottles of rum
BOB One with something rattling inside
BOB two that are 5 years old
BOB You have not been able to determine the age of your third bottle with something in it
BOB But you are going with the idea that because Deorange had access to it that it must be what you are looking for
BOB Deorange never said he had them
BOB Vee never saw them in his possession
BOB thank you blindfolds
Carissa (Vee Barlett): SIGH
Carissa (Vee Barlett): look Vee already took one for the team, if it ISN'T the right rum, then someone else can make a plan because I'm out
BOB chuckles that is not what I was saying
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no no I know, but I'm warning the group that
Lemon (Levi Reed): Honestly if this isn't it, I'm ready to just reroll and start a whole new campaign again
BOB I was saying that Deorange has many many plausible deniability optoins
BOB and Vee has some too
BOB With how everything stands right now
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes and in the end, the only reason to care is because Jericho could die, but at this point, that's on him
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if someone can figure out the age of the rum (Rothuss did earlier?) and/or we pour it out to see what is inside
Lemon (Levi Reed): Man, Vee just gets meaner and meaner
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no carissa is
Carissa (Vee Barlett): carissa is still tired and frustrated and feeling compassion fatigue
BOB Would need to have Distilling, or know how to read the marks on the bottles to tell both year and place of distilling
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Rothuss was able to figure out the bottle from the bags so he should somehow do that here, too
BOB Also yes to Lirt being able to cast detect magic in the morning and verify that this is the bottle also
TMO (Rothuss Carder): turns bottle upside down :Made in Kentucky, 1936"
Carissa (Vee Barlett): or anyone with any skill ideas
Lemon (Levi Reed): I did artistic ability, wisdom, intellect. Not sure I have anything else useful?
BOB Those are all good Lemon
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we have three other people who can also toss out ideas, too
BOB That is why I laid out all the details OOC for everyone
Rothuss Carder: [SKILL] Local History [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 13] [d20 = 3]
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you figured out the bottles before
BOB And yes Rothuss can tell that this third bottle is from the Temple of the Orange Sunsets
BOB So the age and distillery means you have a 99% certainty
BOB just missing the detect magic for 100%
Carissa (Vee Barlett): which we can thankfully do in the morning now
Carissa (Vee Barlett): since we have a mage who can cast that
BOB and yes the bottle is fully sealed
Carissa (Vee Barlett): eh they could have done a good job resealing it
BOB and I leave that part of the puzzle to the group
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and really, they should have resealed it or it'd go bad sooner right? I don't know, I don't drnik
BOB a distilling check can help with that
TMO (Rothuss Carder): we lost our distiller
BOB One or both will be back next week
BOB You do need to do some minimal planning on how to get back and where to go
Carissa (Vee Barlett): did the flame leaves us? they have our barrels of rum and crates of silver....
TMO (Rothuss Carder): to the boat; sail the boat; collect reward?
BOB again it will be the morning of the 11th next session, and you have to be in Osterhold Cathdral on or before the 28th
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, I was figuring go back to the boat, sail to Osterhold
BOB The Flame is still there, Matty had them wait for you
Carissa (Vee Barlett): once vee gets what she wants, then it's up to the death mark priest how he wants to handle it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yay comatose matty!
BOB Who do you return what to where?
BOB Temple of Orange Sunsets gave you the mission to return it to them
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee's only plan is sail back to Osterhold, and if she can't figure out how to duplicate the stamp herself, ask her dads for help.
BOB Cathedral of Osterhold put a geas on Jericho
Carissa (Vee Barlett): It's up to the priest how they want to handle their church.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): only a day travel between Osterhold and Achild, right?
Levi Reed: Yeah, I feel like get it back to the cathedral to get rid of the geas, and then let the priests decide what they want to/can do with it
Lemon (Levi Reed): ooc
BOB I will clarify one thing for everyone that I think you are missing. It is a magical tax stamp, so it is a magical item, so to duplicate that you will
BOB do what?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Or we go to Sunset, tell them about the death mark, and let them decide if they'll let him die and/or talk about how to break it.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ask for help, duh
BOB That is the conversation to have
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Cast a Wish spell
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I don't know magic stuff.
BOB LOL
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
BOB So creating magic items is in Chapter Two on the site
Lemon (Levi Reed): Find someone in town? I bet the librarian knows some people who know some stuff
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh
TMO (Rothuss Carder): hands Lirtimya a scroll with Wish on it, that's been in his family for generations and generations
BOB Lirt can guess it takes weeks to months and thousands of gold to do that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): better to do that in Osterhold
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we don't want to hang around Mizzen right now
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and we know just the person who wastes thousands of gold on candlesticks!
BOB Also because it is a priestly magic item needs a priest to create it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the timeline could be the problem, but she's still willing to try
Lemon (Levi Reed): Where do the dads live? Osterhold?
BOB Yes
Lemon (Levi Reed): Ok so yeah, get back to the dads and discuss it there, so we're close enough to get to the cathedral to remove the geas
Lemon (Levi Reed): But if we manage to keep it after removing the geas, then we might think about copying it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the only potential hitch is if they'll care about a hot item and death sentence priest or if it's enticing enough they do not
TMO (Rothuss Carder): we did only need one of these, right? weren't there two bottles?
Lemon (Levi Reed): The dads?
BOB Lots of fun conversations to have on the way there
Lemon (Levi Reed): Well that's Jericho's problem.
Lemon (Levi Reed): He might have to seduce both dads
Carissa (Vee Barlett): only one bottle has a stamp
Carissa (Vee Barlett): exactly
Lemon (Levi Reed): Since he's not a prude
TMO (Rothuss Carder): ah, so we have the only one we *really* care about
BOB and one of the two stolen bottles is still out there
Vee Barlett: It's not in character for Vee to have gone throuhg all that because she's a good person. She needs to profit somehow. So she's holding on to it and taking it home. Any problems after that are for priest to figure out.
BOB very valuable bottles
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes but the priestess said she didn't care if we got both bottles of rum, they just really want the stamp back
BOB exactly
Carissa (Vee Barlett): which is why Vee isn't sweating over missing the other bottle
Carissa (Vee Barlett): let the creep keep it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and see how good he is at pirating without a pirate :P
User has gone AFK. (JtomTMO)
BOB So next week we pick up in the morning on the Flame
BOB Lirt and the other spell casters do their spells
BOB and then you sail away
Carissa: (insert song here)
TMO (Rothuss Carder): when do we get aliens?
BOB smile
BOB On the 11th
MeLange: cool cool
Shislif (MeLange): ooc
