BOB Hello there

BOB and now Wendy is here
Carissa: was making food, hello!
wyjyoon: Hello!
wyjyoon: Was making food as well
Carissa: food ftw
BOB Yes
wyjyoon: Agreed
wyjyoon: Also belatedly realized I forgot to put quotes for that last session summary whoops
Carissa: eh I didn't do story chat yet so all good, lol
BOB I have no clue on anyone else for tonight, I would guess Lemon and JTom and TMO
wyjyoon: I talked to Lemon around my lunchbreak and it seemed like she was planning on attending
Carissa: discord tmo said late and mini no
BOB AHh
wyjyoon: But her shift is also until six, so she might be a lil late
BOB It is already 720! where is she!
BOB :)
wyjyoon: LOL
Carissa: food
wyjyoon: Food ftw
Carissa: lol
wyjyoon: OH OH how did seeing the northern lights go? Did you get to see it on the second night (?) The picture you posted was really pretty
Carissa: Yes! Second night wasn
BOB glad
Carissa: *wasn't nearly as spectacular, but still beautiful
Carissa: First night you could see it in colors with naked eye. Second night you needed camera to really see it.
wyjyoon: Aw, the first night was nature's main dish, eh. I'm glad the skies were clear enough for the second day though!
Carissa: I didn't even get a good photo of when it was really nice, lol. I mean that one was but I didn't know my camera would work until then
Carissa: lol yup
wyjyoon: It's alright! The skies weren't clear on my end so I was glad to see it via photo : ) I'm sure it's tricky to capture the real thing in one shot, but still
wyjyoon: Twas beautiful to see <3
Carissa: very much so
BOB One day we will
BOB I had the thought of going out into the Everglades to try
BOB but would not have seen anything by eye, only with camera enhancement
Carissa: yeah and unless you knew what to look for, it's subtle
BOB Need to go up North
BOB 2026 Eclipse in Iceland?
Carissa: yu[
BOB I am very tempted by the 2027 Eclipse in Egypt
BOB Right over Luxor
BOB It has to be a fortune to do that
Carissa: I've always heard Egypt is the worst country to visit. Or at least is if you're a woman.
BOB I can easily imagine that
'Lemon' connected
BOB Finally here Lemon is
wyjyoon: Life gave us Lemon
BOB grins
Levi Reed: Did I beat Carissa?????
wyjyoon: She goes right down to business : )
wyjyoon: The important stuff
Carissa: noppew
Lemon (Levi Reed): darn
Lemon (Levi Reed): Hi everyone
BOB Hope your evening is starting well Lemon
wyjyoon (Temperance): Heya!
Lemon (Levi Reed): So far so good
Lemon (Levi Reed): School day ended on a weird note, but that's in the past now
BOB Rafiki
wyjyoon (Temperance): ? Lion king?
BOB yes
Carissa: no the other rafiki
BOB WHAM on the head with his stick "Ouch why did you hit me?" "It is in the past it does not matter"
wyjyoon (Temperance): Ahh
wyjyoon (Temperance): That sounds like something he would say
wyjyoon (Temperance): 's been a while since I watched it
Carissa: bob is on a different wavelength than me tonight at least
BOB chuckles
wyjyoon (Temperance): Eh, I don't know if I'm ever on the same wavelength as he is
Carissa: lol
BOB It is a safety thing
wyjyoon (Temperance): My brain noodles are often too tangled :D
BOB Or not tangled enough
Lemon (Levi Reed): So at the end of the day, Wendy's kids get shuffled into my classroom, since I'm there until closing. Today, I turned around to find water all over the floor and the table. They were doing an "experiment" with their drawings. They have a theory that if they draw with white crayons on black paper and then completely soak it, and then let it dry, that it will glow in the dark.
BOB Nice experiment
BOB Did it work?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I mean, I would have appreciated them asking permission first, but yeah nice experiment
Lemon (Levi Reed): I'll let you know if my classroom and their papers ever dry
wyjyoon (Temperance): Sounds like something my kids would do
BOB hah
Lemon (Levi Reed): I mean, I let them do it the other day, but they weren't making such a mess the other day, so... I guess that's on me? But I told them no more water experiments
wyjyoon (Temperance): They just got finished going crazy with creating fossil imprints in clay though, but I guess that wasn't enough to get their energy out
BOB You should get one of the fossil kits and swap it in for one of them, so that when they dig in they find a bone and they go ballistic
Levi Reed: I mean, I liked the idea, but... yeah... there was too much water on the floor for that many preschoolers running around
Lemon (Levi Reed): ooc, obvs
wyjyoon (Temperance): Depending on how much that is, I might think about it BOB
wyjyoon (Temperance): We're doing prehistoric animals for science next week
BOB I bought a case of them for the Creation Station Science
wyjyoon (Temperance): OOO
wyjyoon (Temperance): Will check it out sometime this weekend
wyjyoon (Temperance): Putting away dishes brb

BOB Lemon's is better
Carissa: I'll take your word for it
Carissa: finished eating so you get my full attention as soon as I also put my dishes away, lol
BOB grins
BOB brb Nyrma just got home
Carissa: HI NYRMA!!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Hello Nyrma!
Lemon (Levi Reed): I don't know about better... but probably for this setting, since they'd all have their own little fossil to excavate, rather than one they all have to share. Also mine is cheaper. Also hi Nyrma!!!
BOB b
wyjyoon (Temperance): I do think Lemon's fit my budget range. Also BOB's link isn't opening for some reason
wyjyoon (Temperance): Will try again
wyjyoon (Temperance): No dice
wyjyoon (Temperance): *sad violin music*
BOB It is ok, it is a kit that they would have to share
wyjyoon (Temperance): Fair enough, I'll save the link and see if I can at least see it later
Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm sure they COULD do it, but it's just a lot more mediation for the teachers
wyjyoon (Temperance): Ah, meditation minutes, the key to saving sanity :D
BOB Chuckles
BOB So it is the three (four) of us
BOB Until TMO makes it later on
wyjyoon (Temperance): Right

Temperance: squinting to see if she can notice anything
Vee Barlett: levi has high tastes for what he wants to salvage, lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooc
Temperance: or read any letters that may or may not be on there
Lemon (Levi Reed): Sorry still eating
Carissa (Vee Barlett): how dare you
Image: Ship Wreck
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you were supposed to eat when wendy and I ate or not at all
Carissa (Vee Barlett): duh
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol sync up the sustenance process
Lemon (Levi Reed): But also, I saw a movie where the girl was wearing zipper pulls for earrings, and I was like, I can do that. So I ordered some for super cheap... but they are not plastic, they are metal, and I think they might be too heavy so... going to have to pivot
wyjyoon (Temperance): Ooh zipper earrings
Lemon (Levi Reed): Hey, if Wendy wants to work until 6, then I will go home at 4 and be ready at D&D time
wyjyoon (Temperance): If they can pay me overtime, sure
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you eat on the go, man!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and map is just pure black
BOB So many strange thoughts on zipper jewlery, on how you can put them on ... wrists, and zip them together, or other ideas
BOB Which map?
BOB Lake Edge should be fine
Carissa (Vee Barlett): huh I was thinking she meant just the pull not the full zipper but you might be on to somethin....
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no the Ship Wreck image
wyjyoon (Temperance): Zipper earrings just give me Miss Frizzle vibes
BOB Ahh well yes it is underwater
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so did our rolls just discover it's dark underwater or....? :)
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, it was just the pull, but now I'm like, maybe I need the full zipper to add to this mess
Carissa (Vee Barlett): people wear heavy earrings
BOB You see that there is a section of the wreck that there is a portion above the water line and more below
Vee Barlett: I cannot wear one friend's earrings long because she can do heavy and mine are now weak and sad
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooc
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, I'm just not sure I have an adhesive strong enough to make that work
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and Vee can tell what about how it wrecked? what kind of ship? any of those fantastic successes? come on, give us something here :P
Lemon (Levi Reed): I will figure something out, though. Just not today
wyjyoon (Temperance): Show me pictures once you get it figured out, your jewelry is always cool
BOB Vee can tell that A - this was a normal ship (her hopeful thought of a sky ship is dashed) and B - it has been picked over a bit but it seems like the below water line might still be untouched for the most part and C - there are no bodies of any sort or bones around at all
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not one of her dads' ships right....?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Boo, no sky ship
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not that they'd have pirate ships or anything
BOB No markings visible
Carissa (Vee Barlett): underwater adventure!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but also what time is it?
BOB almost 6 PM
BOB time is correct
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I believe that I just didn't see where it was
wyjyoon (Temperance): Will we be able to see if we swim underwater that late?
Vee Barlett: Alright y'all. Just a normal ship, but everthin' above been picked cleaned. It gettin' late so we campin' here?
BOB If you are underwater and inside will be dark ..... yes
Vee Barlett: Unless y'all wanna swim when it gets dark but Levi ain't good at it durin' the light so ain't sure that's smart.
Temperance: The sky looks to be getting darker, I suppose camping would be wiser.
BOB There are two tents over there .....
Vee Barlett: Here or y'all wanna go back to the shore with giants? I'm good with here, but gonna wanna be on watch for selkies.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (over where? the giants??)
BOB grins
Levi Reed: I'm fine at swimming when I'm not distracted by ghost monkeys
Vee Barlett: You mean when ya ain't hit yer head. So ain't happenin
Temperance: chuckles at the back and forth.
Vee Barlett: Violette. which safetest to camp? Our in the lake or we row back to shore?
Temperance: I don't mind camping here, witnessing the giant was... a bit terrifying.
Violette Snipes: Did you bring a tent?
Violette Snipes: It would be camping here on the rocks,
Vee Barlett: Pack mule got one.
Vee Barlett: We can grab that and use it.
Violette Snipes: You are good to cuddle with but you are not soft enough for that
Violette Snipes: So swim back to shore to get things?
Vee Barlett: laughs
Vee Barlett: Nah, I meant Roth.
Vee Barlett: thumbs where Rothuss is
Carissa (Vee Barlett): who was here
Carissa (Vee Barlett): he is our party pack
Vee Barlett: Oh hold on...
Vee Barlett : [Translation] Hello? Anyone here?
<font color="#000000">Hello? Anyone here?
[understood by: Vee Barlett]
wyjyoon (Temperance): Moving closer because Temperance is physically further apart lol
BOB I released Roth for you to see what inventory he is carrying and can take it
BOB and No answer to Vee's call out
Levi Reed: Rocks seems safe enough
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we have adenture packs
'TMO' connected
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if that doesn't have a tent in it and you hold that against us I'm going to be annoyed
BOB Opps TMO is here get out of Roth's sheet! quick!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol
Vee Barlett: Ya, just might need to make sure we might gotta rope up or something. If somethin' out here can charm, we gotta know before they get charmed.
wyjyoon (Temperance): I think I actually have a spell to detect charm or something
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh but it has to be on a specific target
Carissa (Vee Barlett): good AFTER they're charmed
wyjyoon (Temperance): Fair
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but sirens and selkies (presumably) charm you so you jump in the water
wyjyoon (Temperance): Still working on learning these spells
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if the person on watch doesn't notice OR is the one charmed, we wouldn't know until they hit the water... if we hear it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so in the past we're tie rope so if one pulls, then we know
wyjyoon (Temperance): Ah, I understand
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it was to the ship mast but.... we can make it work
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee has wax as well but it also means she'll hear nothing
wyjyoon (Temperance): I'm sure there's some hefty rocks around here we can
Lemon (Levi Reed): Man, I keep remembering the time when Bixi deafened... what was the old guy's name?
Temperance: BOB... quick question: would Temperance have beeswax on hand by chance?
wyjyoon (Temperance): ooc
BOB Yes she would
Carissa (Vee Barlett): don't remember that surprisingly
Lemon (Levi Reed): Who was the old guy?
Lemon (Levi Reed): The siren was calling him
wyjyoon (Temperance): Ok cool. Do sirens and selkies have heartbeats?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I dunno too much about these creatures
BOB Yes you can guess they do
wyjyoon (Temperance): Cool. That's a spell I can use
Lemon (Levi Reed): Also I'm pretty sure Carissa mentioned wax at some point in our travels, but I do not remember if anyone actually got any
'Carissa' disconnected
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (quickstart guide to get me into the situation?)
'Carissa' connected
Lemon (Levi Reed): We're just trying to decide if it's safe to camp here
Lemon (Levi Reed): After finding the charmed bushes last week
wyjyoon (Temperance): Yep! Tl;dr we planned on setting up camp on the rocks, looking to see if we have tents on hand, and seeing if we have rope to make sure no one gets charmed by possible sirens or selkies
BOB You were here the whole time Carissa ;)
Carissa: liesss
Vee Barlett: and I argued we got an adventure pack so we have a tent
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooc
wyjyoon (Temperance): So... then watches?
BOB Yes
Carissa (Vee Barlett): tempe first or third
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the rest of us can double up
Carissa (Vee Barlett): or one of us can
Carissa (Vee Barlett): who does tempe wanna chat with?
BOB Violette, Vee, Temp, Roth, Levi
Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm crossing my fingers for Rothuss because that is a hilarious pairing
wyjyoon (Temperance): I mean either is fine. Whichever is better for healing if necessary
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no you must choose
Carissa (Vee Barlett): alright lemon has spoken
wyjyoon (Temperance): Dice says third
Carissa (Vee Barlett): tempe and roth on first
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so tempe can heal up violette before second watch
wyjyoon (Temperance): Ok sounds good : )
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Roth has doubled up before, he doesn't mind it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so levi and roth on second?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): vee violette third?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Sounds good to me
Carissa (Vee Barlett): vee will wear wax when she sleeps for earplugs so you'll have to kick her awake if you need her
TMO (Rothuss Carder): k
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we got rope if anyone wants to do that as a precaution
wyjyoon (Temperance): Dunno, I've never encountered sirens before so
BOB They have red flashing lights
wyjyoon (Temperance): It sounds like a good precaution
Vee Barlett: maybe we won't, maybe chatting will be enough.... one way to find out....
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooc
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and ha
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol BOB
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh! did I ever tell you guys about the cop that pulled over the guy who cut me off? it was like a year ago and man it felt good!
BOB nice
wyjyoon (Temperance): Nice karma
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Car-ma
BOB nice
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I was hauling a trailer, he pulled out in front of me, cop was apparently behind me for miles, saw it, went around me and pulled the dumbass over
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it made me so happy - still does!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): haaa
wyjyoon (Temperance): Do y'all want me to try that hear heartbeat spell?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Or save it for later?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oooh how long does it last?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): can you post description?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes, if BOB doesn't beat me first : )
Hear Heartbeat
wyjyoon (Temperance): LOL
wyjyoon (Temperance): There you go
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I mean, she can use that spell, or have the patient pee on a stick
BOB Letting Wendy put the full description in
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so 1 round and 4 turns which is..... 15 minutes or so?
BOB each turn is 10 rounds
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol tmo
wyjyoon (Temperance): ? What patient?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): pregnancy joke
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh
Carissa (Vee Barlett): instead of an ultrasound looking for a "heart" beat, lol
Lemon (Levi Reed): I think it was more of a political joke
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ok so 14 rounds total is how long?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol jokes go over my head most of the time, sorry friends
BOB 14 minutes
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ok and Tempe is what level?
wyjyoon (Temperance): 4
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so you can have 18 minutes of this working
Carissa (Vee Barlett): per cast
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you see the math?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Mathmotologist over here
BOB grins
Carissa (Vee Barlett): 10 turns a round. Spell is 1 turn + 8 rounds for your level
BOB 10 rounds a turn
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ugh I always mix those up
wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes that sounds about right
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so 10 rounds _ 8 more rounds
TMO (Rothuss Carder): 10 tounds a rurn
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and a round is... how long?
BOB 1 minute
wyjyoon (Temperance): 1 minute?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh cool
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so that means you can do this spell for....
wyjyoon (Temperance): 18 minutes?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yay you win
Carissa (Vee Barlett): just some things you need to know
Carissa (Vee Barlett): how long a round and a turn are
Carissa (Vee Barlett): this might be a good spell to cast at the start of a watch
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if you have extra casting, maybe again later in the water
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ...watch
Carissa (Vee Barlett): don't end up in the water please
wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes, looking up spells has helped me calculate rounds and minutes and turns and stuff
BOB a watch is roughly 3 to 4 hours
wyjyoon (Temperance): Will do
TMO (Rothuss Carder): "... and then ... Tempe heard the island's heartbeat... it wasn't an island at all!"
BOB 6 to 10 , 10 to 3, 3 to 6
BOB Thump Thump Thump
wyjyoon (Temperance): *dramatic music in the background*
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, if you have extras to use, why not
BOB a worm bursts out of the sand
Vee Barlett: Well I'm gonna lay down closer to the middle of the rock, y'all. If anyone gets charmed, at least they'll have a bit more walkin' to do before the get to water.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I've seen Tremors! *throws TNT*
Vee Barlett: And I'm gonna wear earplugs so kick me if y'all need me, mkay?
Rothuss Carder: Any time, Cap'n.
Temperance: I'll leave it to Rothuss.
Vee Barlett: No. Not anytime. Only if ya need help.
Rothuss Carder: Mm-hmm, yep, got it.
Vee Barlett: Just know we might got selkies, sirens, mermaids, and who else knows what out here.
Temperance: shuffles around for beeswax in her bag.
Vee Barlett: They might be tryin' to charm ya to drown so make sure yer prepared to protect yerself on watch.
BOB Or Otters!
Vee Barlett: :|
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooc
Rothuss Carder: Are they always hostile, or can they be friendly?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): this is a big rock!
Levi Reed: Yeah, you know me, once I'm asleep it's not easy to wake me, so... good luck
Carissa (Vee Barlett): can certainly be friendly, but they might still charm ya even if firnedly
Vee Barlett: They can certainly be friendly, but they might still charm ya even if friendly.
Temperance: I don't have a needle to prick my thumb, so this would have to do.
Temperance: holds her dagger.
Vee Barlett: moves to middle of rock
Rothuss Carder: looks for a place nearby with a good view of the area.
wyjyoon (Temperance): Are we staying at the edge for watch or are we moving to the middle?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): We should be near them, since there's no guarantee anything won't come from the opposite direction from where we are if we go way out.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): smarter to move towards the middle and the people you're making sure will be okay
TMO (Rothuss Carder): But we can do circles around
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): circle them like a vulture
wyjyoon (Temperance): Whichever works
Temperance: moves a bit away from the water's edge
Vee Barlett: puts in earplug wax, lays next to Violette, cuddles, and attempts to go to sleep.
Violette Snipes: warm happy sigh that Vee cannot hear
Rothuss Carder: pulls out his lute and keeps it handy in case of musical emergency.
Temperance: Rothuss, if I cast this spell, I won't be able to hear you until the spell is finished.
Rothuss Carder: Hah. Don't ever teach that spell to Vee.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): >:(
Temperance: chuckles lightly.
Temperance: You know I won't be able to refuse her. Especially if she threatens to shank.
Temperance: She's a fearsome thing to behold when she's riled up.
Rothuss Carder: shrugs noncommitally.
Rothuss Carder: I don't let it bother me. Have you tried not caring?
Temperance: About being alive?
Rothuss Carder: About being threatened.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): don't threaten him with a good time then
Temperance: Well... I suppose I used to not care as much. But adventuring is getting to be quite interesting. Makes me care a bit more.
Temperance: winces as she takes the blade to her thumb to slice a tiny cut.
Rothuss Carder: It sure beats sitting in one place. Enough to so to make it worth putting up with the threats.
BOB brb quick empty and refill then will tell you what Temp hears
Rothuss Carder: Rothuss is going to keep his lute ready. at the first sign of music or singing he's going to use Counter Effects to try and block it.
Temperance: I suppose that's true. I haven't had a lot of opportunities to venture far before now. It's quite fun once you get used to it. I suppose threats are something I'll get used to with time.
Rothuss Carder: Yeah, I'm guessing you're going to get to the social rank of being the one to give threats, not receive them.
Rothuss Carder: smiles and winks.
Temperance: laughs lightly.
BOB b
BOB understood TMO
Temperance: I don't particularly care about social ranks and all, but we'll see what future brings. I wasn't the most approachable before.
Temperance: puts the beeswax in her ears and prepares to cast.
Rothuss Carder: You've still got the shell with you, but I think you're coming out of it quite nicely.
Temperance: furrows her eyebrows and takes out the beeswax.
Temperance: Sorry, what was that?
Rothuss Carder: shakes his head and waves 'nevermind' to her. He smiles at her and then starts looking around.
Temperance: shrugs and puts the piece of beeswax back in her ears.
Temperance: Temperance cast a spell NOT memorized.
Temperance: [CAST] Hear Heartbeat
Rothuss Carder: starts walking a guard path.
wyjyoon (Temperance): (trying to see if she has to stand still for the spell or not)
wyjyoon (Temperance): (I'm guessing yes for concentration but)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not necessarily
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you had to concentrate with the staff but still walked
Carissa (Vee Barlett): BUT if you trip.... yeah
wyjyoon (Temperance): I think in the caves I had to stand still with the staff
wyjyoon (Temperance): Don't remember
BOB Concentrating is important so you cannot DO other things like attack, make a save etc. but yes to slow walk in a safe area
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes
Temperance: walks at a slower pace.
Temperance: glances around her surroundings from time to time.
The time is 7:33 PM
Rothuss Carder: wonders what lives in the depths out there.
BOB Temperance walks and listens
BOB and the only interesting thing she hears is Vee's heartbeating faster when Violette snuggles in closer and tighter
Lemon (Levi Reed): gross
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lmao
wyjyoon (Temperance): Information that I should not have been privy to lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it would be levi if melange didn't have the shits
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
BOB and a halfhour later Temperance is still walking but not hearing anything
wyjyoon (Temperance): Whew, that's good at least.
wyjyoon (Temperance): The spell lasts for 18 minutes right?
Temperance: takes the beeswax out of her ears.
Temperance: Nothing I could hear thus far, at least.
Rothuss Carder: circles back around to her side.
Rothuss Carder: That's a good thing, right?
Temperance: I hope so. It means there aren't any creatures within the area or... they're too deep within the waves.
Temperance: So far, rather peaceful.
Rothuss Carder: Well, let's hope they stay there.
Rothuss Carder: nods.
Rothuss Carder: nods.
Rothuss Carder: The moonlight reflecting off the water is nice.
Temperance: I agree with that sentiment. It's been a while since we've had the leisure for enjoying scenery. Everything moves quite fast around here.
Rothuss Carder: Try listening to the waves on the beach. They're not big, but it's really pretty soothing.
Temperance: It's quite nice, the way they wash over the shore and roll back again. I'd have to be careful to make sure I don't fall asleep to them.
Rothuss Carder: You can when Levi gets up.
Temperance: glances around from time to time as she walks.
Temperance: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 8]
Temperance: laughs lightly.
Temperance: Will Levi ever get up, is the question?
Temperance: He's a tricky one to wake.
Rothuss Carder: He will if we kick him.
-> Temperance: Temp spots someting maybe a light or something in the wreck
Lemon (Levi Reed): Lemon is the same
Temperance: stops and squints in the direction of the wreck.
Rothuss Carder: stops with her.
Temperance: I think I'm seeing... a bit of light within the wreck.
Temperance: Over there, do you see it?
Temperance: points in the general direction.
Rothuss Carder: peers in that direction.
Rothuss Carder: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 9) [SUCCESS by 1] [d20 = 8]
-> Rothuss Carder: Roth does not see anything
Rothuss Carder: No... is it still there?
Temperance: squints in that direction again.
-> Temperance: Temp does not see anything now
Rothuss Carder: listens to make sure he doesn't hear any music.
Lemon (Levi Reed): So guys... I bought a diamond painting kit that was listed as "5D!" and it looked like it was, after finished, propped up inside a cube, which seemed pretty neat to me, so I got it because I was going to do it and give it to my husband as a birthday gift. But alas, it is just the PICTURE of the cube... wtf.
Lemon (Levi Reed): Anyway, I got a refund and don't have to return it so
TMO (Rothuss Carder): lol
Temperance: I... no, I don't see it anymore.
Temperance: shakes her head.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lmao
Temperance: Perhaps it was just my imagination.
Rothuss Carder: You okay?
Rothuss Carder: moves a step closer, just in case.
Temperance: Just trying to clear my head, is all. We have enough people seeing strange things these days.
Lemon (Levi Reed): Are any of us REALLY ok?
Temperance: grins lightly.
wyjyoon (Temperance): Nope : )
Rothuss Carder: Heh. You think maybe it was Levi's monkey?
Temperance: If it is, I certainly am glad Levi's not awake to go after it.
Temperance: laughs lightly at the thought.
Rothuss Carder: No kidding. You want me to go take a look?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Hey, Hagrid said it best. We can all get a little stupid when it comes to our pets
Temperance: I'll come with you. Perhaps I'll see it again if I look closer. Better two set of eyes.
Rothuss Carder: Okay. Watch your step over here. And we'll go slow, just in case the monkey's mean.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but he isn't your pet
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not even your friend
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's like melange chasing after animals saying, "I JUST WANT TO BE FRIENDS!!"
Rothuss Carder: Stay a bit behind me. If it comes down to it, you can heal me, but I can't heal you.
Lemon (Levi Reed): None of Hagrid's were, either
Temperance: Yes, I understand. Let me know if you need any help.
Rothuss Carder: Where on the ship did you see it?
wyjyoon (Temperance): (I thought the creatures around Hagrid liked him though?)
Lemon (Levi Reed): I mean... I don't think the blast-ended skrewts liked anyone or anything
Temperance: I'm... not too sure. We were quite far away when I spotted it. It might've just been a trick of the light.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
wyjyoon (Temperance): (since BOB didn't specify exactly where)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I still need to reread those books...
wyjyoon (Temperance): Same, it's been a while
Rothuss Carder: Hmm.. okay, you wait here, I'm going to go left then right, just to get different angles on it. You watch in case I miss something.
BOB Temp and Roth both stare intently at the wreck but you cannot spot any visible lights now
Temperance: Alright. Be careful!
Temperance: continues to keep her eyes on Rothuss while glancing around to keep up with her surroundings, in case of any surprises.
Rothuss Carder: covering ground, keeping his eyes and ears open, just in case
The time is 8:13 PM
Rothuss Carder: if he sees and hears nothing, he'll head back to Temperance
TMO (Rothuss Carder): if he sees and hears nothing, he'll head back to Temperance
Temperance: gets a better hold on her dagger.
BOB after time neither of you find anything
Temperance: I don't see much over here. Maybe I was just tired and I really imagined it.
Rothuss Carder: shrugs.
Rothuss Carder: Always possible. We should get back, though.
Temperance: nods in agreement.
Temperance: Yes, it wouldn't do to stay so close to the water, what with all that talk of sirens and selkies and such.
Rothuss Carder: I've been keeping an ear out for that. Tell me if you hear something. I've heard stories about how to fight that.
Rothuss Carder: quietly fingers a few strings on his lute.
Temperance: I'll see what I can do. I haven't ever encountered them before, but I've heard that they've got irresistible voices.
Rothuss Carder: Supposedly, if you play or sing the right counterpoint you can interrupt it.
Temperance: Ah, is that so? Interesting! Countering melody with melody...
Temperance: shuffles for her notebook to jot the notes down.
Lemon (Levi Reed): Like the brown note?
wyjyoon (Temperance): (or at least try to, in the dark)
wyjyoon (Temperance): Brown note?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (if you don't know, you don't want to)
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh, okay
Lemon (Levi Reed): Very correct
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I don't know either but also assume I don't want to know
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol don't ask too many questions around here, got it : D
Carissa (Vee Barlett): just assuming it has to do with poop somehow and that's all I need to know, lol
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (musical note so low/intense it causes instant diarhea)
Lemon (Levi Reed): And you both play instruments. How did this never come up in your instrumental education?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): because I wasn't trying to make people poop their pants???
Levi Reed: No but it's like an urban legend
Lemon (Levi Reed): ooc
Lemon (Levi Reed): but maybe he's also talking in his sleep
Lemon (Levi Reed): Let's keep it IC
TMO (Rothuss Carder): lol
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (lol sleep talking)
BOB grtins
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and I dunno, my teachers were professionals so they probably didn't need to teach me that legend
Rothuss Carder: Sounds like Levi might be waking up on his own already.
wyjyoon (Temperance): Honestly, considering his interest for mythical creatures it makes sense.
Temperance: chuckles lightly.
Vee Barlett: although you'd think three years of orchestra SOMEONE there had to be immature but nope... bet it was the band geeks
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooc
Temperance: That's a first. Perhaps a mythical creature is on his radar.
The time is 8:53 PM
Rothuss Carder: He's just afraid of how I'm going to wake him.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): time is moving suspiciously slow this watch....
Temperance: muffles a laugh in order to not wake the others.
Temperance: I'm sure it's terrifying.
Rothuss Carder: Wellllll... I don't know about 'terrifying'...
Temperance: I don't know, musical cacophony sounds like auditory terror.
Rothuss Carder: I prefer 'non-traditional'
Temperance: muffles a chuckle again.
Temperance: Non-traditional. I see.
BOB Quiet bagpipes
wyjyoon (Temperance): Honestly I need to try to listen to bagpipes with the sound minimized because I can't imagine it.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): there's some good bagpipe acts on YT
wyjyoon (Temperance): I'll have to find some over the weekend for sure : )
BOB Pipper Allie (I shared a link before) is fun
BOB She does modern bagpipes along with traditional
BOB But yes for the most part the two of you are uncomfortable but do not spot anything
The time is 9:53 PM
The time is 9:53 PM
BOB Time to kick some Levi
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Temperance: prepares to witness the 'nontraditional way' of waking someone up
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Rothuss Carder: crouches behind Levi's sleeping form and pulls out his goat horn. He places the mouth of it up against the back of Levi's head and carefully blows a very quiet and low note so it vibrates throughout his entire skull.
Levi Reed: I hate you.
Levi Reed: Go away
Carissa (Vee Barlett): he doesn't need more brain damage!!!
Rothuss Carder: I know.
Rothuss Carder: C'mon buddy. Time to spend a few hours telling me how much you hate me.
Temperance: slow claps softly, pressing her lips together to muffle her laughter.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): tempe should heal violette before sleeping
Levi Reed: Uggggh, wait, I'm stuck with you?
Rothuss Carder: bows.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and cast any other spells she might think could help
wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes, I do remember that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (maybe not all, but if one intigues you)
Levi Reed: I hope you have a good story man. I haven't had a good night's sleep in forever, I'm struggling to care enough to stay awake
Temperance: coughs a bit to muffle her laughter again before heading in Violette's direction.
wyjyoon (Temperance): (Does she have to be awake for me to cast or can I just do it?)
Rothuss Carder: Sure. We think your monkey's over on that ship. Keep your eyes peeled, let me know if you spot it.
Levi Reed: What, really?
Rothuss Carder: shrugs.
Rothuss Carder: Maybe.
Rothuss Carder: Get back here!
Levi Reed: But the monkey
Rothuss Carder: I'm supposed to be the reckless one
Temperance: Temperance cast a spell NOT memorized.
Temperance: Temperance cast a spell NOT memorized.
Temperance: [CAST] Cause Light Wounds

Temperance: Temperance cast a spell NOT memorized.
Levi Reed: It's a GHOST MONKEY man
Temperance: Temperance cast a spell NOT memorized.
Temperance: [CAST] Cure Light Wounds
Rothuss Carder: But you're NOT
Temperance: Temperance cast a spell NOT memorized.
Temperance: [CAST] Cure Light Wounds [at Violette Snipes]

Levi Reed: Not yet
Rothuss Carder: Keep it up.
Temperance: [HEAL] Cure Light Wounds [d8 = 1]
Heal [1] -> [to Violette Snipes] [STATUS: Moderate]
wyjyoon (Temperance): Wow
wyjyoon (Temperance): Sorry Violette
Levi Reed: Maybe he's here to offer me friendship... ETERNALLY
wyjyoon (Temperance): Should I try again?
Rothuss Carder: You really want to be stuck as a ghost? Just for a monkey?
Rothuss Carder: What about Mel?
Levi Reed: He'll get over it
Temperance: Temperance cast a spell NOT memorized.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol probably
Temperance: [CAST] Cure Light Wounds [at Violette Snipes]
Levi Reed: We're young
Temperance: [HEAL] Cure Light Wounds [d8 = 6]
Heal [2] -> [to Violette Snipes] [STATUS: Healthy]

Levi Reed: [SKILL] Ranger Tracking [2] [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 3] [d20 = 18]
Lemon (Levi Reed): Well I'm a useless watch
Carissa (Vee Barlett): now sleep before the dumb ones do more dumb stuff ;)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): plausible deniability!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Who decided to pair them together again? : )
Levi Reed: I do, but we're young! You can't expect this to last forever
Rothuss Carder: You can at least try.
Temperance: sighs and shakes her head.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no one said no so....
Temperance: Don't do anything too overboard, you two!
BOB overboard, get it?
Rothuss Carder: I didn't get into this gig to do babysitting.
Levi Reed: mumbles something about a wet blanket
Temperance: rubs her eyes and settles down to sleep.
wyjyoon (Temperance): (pun is always intended, apparently)
Rothuss Carder: Oh, you did NOT just call me that.
Levi Reed: What did you get in it for?
Levi Reed: I wasn't talking about YOU
Rothuss Carder: Uh-huh
Rothuss Carder: Pull the other one
Levi Reed: waves vaguely toward temperance
Rothuss Carder: looks skeptical, but lets it drop
Rothuss Carder: looks skeptical, but lets it drop
Levi Reed: She reminds me of my mom but like... more boring
Temperance: furrows her brows but falls asleep.
Rothuss Carder: I think she'd be a pretty good mom, myself.
Levi Reed: Probably
Levi Reed: I already got one of those though
Levi Reed: Don't need another
Levi Reed: So what DID you get into this gig for?
Rothuss Carder: Good on ya.
Levi Reed: Don't dodge the question
BOB Is it better to have two moms or two dads?
Rothuss Carder: Fun. Excitement. Curiosity.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): moms probably don't let you get away with as much
Rothuss Carder: "Not boring"
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so really... do you want a responsible child fit for society? or do you want vee? :P
Levi Reed: See!
Levi Reed: And she's over here like "ooooh don't go overboard kiddos"
wyjyoon (Temperance): I mean.. are any children "fit for society" at this point?
Levi Reed: is very grumpy
Carissa (Vee Barlett): nope
Carissa (Vee Barlett): none of us but that's because none of us have two moms! my point stands!!
Rothuss Carder: Uh huh. Don't let other people bother you, I always say.
BOB grins
Levi Reed: Nothing seems to bother you
Levi Reed: Except when you thought I called you a wet blanket
Rothuss Carder: Hey, it's easy to not care, but some insults are just too personal to take.
Levi Reed: That's not contradictory at all
Rothuss Carder: Anyways, let me know if you hear any music or singing. If it's magic trying to charm you, I might be able to break it.
Rothuss Carder: looks smug at not being contradictory.
Levi Reed: All I hear is you
Rothuss Carder: Yep, until I'm sure you're not going to do anything really dumb. I told you because I thought you would want to know. But if I have to start keeping secrets from you....
Rothuss Carder: about the light, that is
Levi Reed: I think the monkey likes Mel better anyway
Levi Reed: pouts a little
Rothuss Carder: shrugs.
wyjyoon (Temperance): I totally forgot that he named that monkey Bubbles
Rothuss Carder: Who knows what's in the heart of a ghost monkey?
Levi Reed: Well if anyone would let me make friends with it, maybe we could find out!
Levi Reed: Everyone here is all about fun and danger until it's ME trying it
Levi Reed: Well, except Tempe
Rothuss Carder: Hmm.. out of curiosity... has the monkey ever shown up when the situation *wasn't* dangerous somehow?
Levi Reed: When has our situation ever not been dangerous?
Rothuss Carder: is still walking the circuit around the sleeping party members with Levi, keeping a watch out, his lute at hand.
Levi Reed: We've been in a pickle ever since we met Jericho
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lmao
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oof shots fired
Rothuss Carder: Well, I think there was that quiet 5 minutes the other day...
Levi Reed: Must have been a dream
BOB Observation rolls
Rothuss Carder: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 9) [FAILURE by 7] [d20 = 16]
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Alertness [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 8] [d20 = 7]
-> Rothuss Carder: Roth hears a lute playing
Rothuss Carder: strums a discordant note
-> Levi Reed: Levi hears a lute playing from across the lake
Rothuss Carder: hold up, Levi....
Levi Reed: Wait, shhhh
Levi Reed: I hear something
Rothuss Carder: Counter Effects
Levi Reed: A lute maybe? Does Ratbone have a lute?
Levi Reed: You think she's over there?
Rothuss Carder: Yep. And probably Nope.
Levi Reed: You hear it?
Levi Reed: starts VERY SLOWLY walking in the direction of the sound
Rothuss Carder: nods, trying to identify direction of the music. He keeps hitting strange notes on the lute, and humming an unknown song to himself.
Rothuss Carder: Stop, Levi.
BOB One more check for Levi
Levi Reed: You stop!
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Alertness [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 6] [d20 = 9]
Levi Reed: They can probably hear you
-> Levi Reed: Levi can tell it is coming from the area of the giant camp, and also that Roth is being annoying with trying to break up the music and spoiling their song
Levi Reed: Dude, it's coming from the giant area
Levi Reed: You gotta quit before they come over here to check on us
TMO (Rothuss Carder): if Levi keeps walking, Roth will pop the back of his knee when he takes step so it knocks him to his knees.
Levi Reed: is no longer walking
TMO (Rothuss Carder): goodie! :)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol
BOB Levi needs a cane
Levi Reed: I will break all your instruments if you don't stop
Rothuss Carder: listens to the music, still playing his own discordant notes (although hopefully not loudly enough to carry across the lake).
Levi Reed: I have no interest in meeting giants in the middle of the night
Levi Reed: Daylight, sure, I'll take the chance
Levi Reed: But not in the middle of the damn night
BOB Dueling lutes
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I'm only playing to block Levi and I from any effects, not to interrupt them across the lake if it is them
Levi Reed: heads closer to Rothuss
Rothuss Carder: Shh!
Lemon (Levi Reed): That's not what BOB told me
Rothuss Carder: holds up a hand, listening
Rothuss Carder: [SKILL] Musical Instrument [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 4] [d20 = 17]
TMO (Rothuss Carder): *sigh* nothing like failing a core skill check
BOB wry grin
Carissa (Vee Barlett): are we surprised at this point?
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Distance Sense [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 11] [d20 = 3]
Lemon (Levi Reed): Can I tell how far it is?
wyjyoon (Temperance): *sympathetic pat*
TMO (Rothuss Carder): however, how 'core' can it really be considered with only a 13 in it? :)
BOB Levi is certain that the music is coming from across the lake where the giant camp is, and the broken melody is from Roth
BOB Unchained as it were
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Levi Reed: gently puts a hand on Rothuss arm
Levi Reed: Ok but for real. Stop
Levi Reed: If they hear you, we're toast
Rothuss Carder: Yeah, yeah, i'm listening. Problem is if it's the sirens, you pause to take a breath and they've got you. But I don't think they play lutes.
Levi Reed: Nah, they sing
Rothuss Carder: And I'm not playing *that* loud, I promise. If they can hear me all the way over there over the sound of their own players, they already know we're here.
Levi Reed: And they aren't likely to get me anyway. Not my type
Levi Reed: Yeah but we don't have to advertise it
Levi Reed: I don't want to be on the daily specials
Rothuss Carder: Magic charm is all about making you do things you don't want to, duh.
Rothuss Carder: Can you see anything over there?
The time is 12:33 AM
Levi Reed: Nah, too far and too dark
The date is Mid____se, 25th Ze (Summer), 587 SGR
Young Moon's phase is Morning Crescent
Old Moon's phase is Waxing Gibbous
Rothuss Carder: Good. Then they won't be able to see me when I play my drum solo.
Levi Reed: rolls eyes
Levi Reed: Is this watch over yet?
Levi Reed: Not that I'm not enjoying your company...
Levi Reed: ...
wyjyoon (Temperance): Do giants have nightvision? Just curious
Rothuss Carder: Any time you want to wake Vee go for it.
Rothuss Carder: grins.
BOB You will have to encounter them to find out Wendy
wyjyoon (Temperance): Welp, I hope I never find out, then : )
Levi Reed: Why me?
Levi Reed: I did it last time and I still have bruises
Rothuss Carder: I woke you. It's your turn.
wyjyoon (Temperance): Or you could wake Violette who could wake Vee...
TMO (Rothuss Carder): hush you...
wyjyoon (Temperance): : )
BOB It is still a while till the end of your watch
Levi Reed: So did you find your fun and excitement you were hoping for?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): and the more Levi dislikes it, the longer it's going to seem...
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Rothuss Carder: Yeah, I think I have. At least it's not boring yet. What about you? What're you after?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Levi's just a cranky boi
Levi Reed: I don't know. I started out interested in that chupacabra. Now I'm after a ghost monkey
BOB Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come.
Rothuss Carder: chuckles.
Lemon (Levi Reed): You know nothing Jon Snow
Levi Reed: Not where I thought my life was going
Levi Reed: I just wanted free drinks
Rothuss Carder: I'll buy you a round at the next tavern.
Levi Reed: I just wanted to spend my life sitting around the tavern away from my family, slowly drinking myself to death
Rothuss Carder: Ahh... I've met too many like that. I may have to rescind my offer...
Levi Reed: Well obviously that changed, or I wouldn't still be here
Levi Reed: But I don't know what I want anymore
Rothuss Carder: So enjoy what you got where you are until you find what you want.
Levi Reed: Hell, a week ago I was ready to take the kid and be a dad
Rothuss Carder: Yeah, that was a bit weird. Noble, maybe, but still weird.
Rothuss Carder: grins.
Levi Reed: You'd just let some random monster take some kid and do whatever it wants with it?
Rothuss Carder: You were just assuming the monsterhood. We didn't have any evidence either way.
Levi Reed: I wasn't assuming, I was preparing for the worst and hoping for the best
Rothuss Carder: Sure. I don't have a lot of love for the church either.
Levi Reed: If it was that Mizzen church, I wouldn't have been too worried
Levi Reed: They're pretty relaxed, don't seem to do much sacrificing or anything
Levi Reed: But hidden up here in the mountains? Who knows
Rothuss Carder: Always possible. I ain't judging you, buddy. Just saying it was weird.
Rothuss Carder: Remember, weird is usually 'not boring'
Levi Reed: Oh for sure it was weird
Levi Reed: I was not happy about it
Levi Reed: But like... when the time comes, I still gotta face my own god, and I'm not facing him with that on my conscience
Rothuss Carder: Sounds like a plan.
Levi Reed: Who's your god?
Rothuss Carder: My whole beef with both the church and whathisname up there is they are so *damn* proud of all the secrets they know that they refuse to give straight answers to simple questions.
Levi Reed: Oh man, that gets my goat too
Levi Reed: No offense
Levi Reed: Or was it sheep
Rothuss Carder: You can have my goat too
Rothuss Carder: Goats. Just remember, the only thing dumber than a goat is the people who raise 'em.
Levi Reed: If they're so dumb, why can't you show your face there yet?
Rothuss Carder: sniffs.
Rothuss Carder: They blame me for their stupidicty.
Rothuss Carder: You know... a scape goat.
Levi Reed: groans
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol
Levi Reed: If I remember correctly, didn't you purposely decieve them?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I would like to say I've had that one waiting for ages and ages, but I just came up with it on the spot
Rothuss Carder: It's called a prank. And it was totally harmless. ... almost.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the best are made on the spot
wyjyoon (Temperance): The emphasis on "almost" lol
Rothuss Carder: Would have been if they didn't get greedy.
Levi Reed: Ok, maybe I need the whole story
Levi Reed: I thought you were just messing with them for fun
Rothuss Carder: Yeah, that's what a prank is.
Rothuss Carder: I mean, it's just *so* stupid...
Levi Reed: So what's greed got to do with it?
Rothuss Carder: sighs
Rothuss Carder: Fine... what do you know about herding goats?
Rothuss Carder: kicks a rock.
Levi Reed: Uhhhh...
Levi Reed: You like... uhhh
Rothuss Carder: How do you know which goat belongs to who?
Levi Reed: collars?
Rothuss Carder: collars can be moved or come off.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): with scrapie tags which you can get for free!!!
Rothuss Carder: and mats the coat underneath.
Levi Reed: That's why you got someone out in the field watching em, yeah?
Rothuss Carder: Yeah, so how we do it is marks painted on their coats.
Rothuss Carder: Grundy's goats have Grundy's mark on 'em. Hyford's got a different mark.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hope they aren't being herded for their coats... tags guys, tag your dang animals!
BOB hah
Carissa (Vee Barlett): otherwise I get to send you a nasty letter
Levi Reed: ok
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (remember this method was written up by a man who knows less about goats than he does cows, and he don't know diddly about cows)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lmao for a small island it works
Rothuss Carder: So.. for fun, what happens if a couple people color over all those marks one night?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I've just got my work triggers of people not tagging animals they move off farm :P
Levi Reed: Those people get chased out of town, from what I've heard
Rothuss Carder: What *should* have happened was that people get confused for a while, realize they all know their own goats by sight *anyways* and figure it all out what belongs to who.
Rothuss Carder: What *actually* happens is they all start claiming they owned the most valuable goats.
Levi Reed: Wait wait wait. How are you supposed to tell one goat from another? Like, I know SOME of them have different colors but...
Rothuss Carder: You tell 'em apart same as you do a person.
Rothuss Carder: Once you get used to it, they all look completely different.
Levi Reed: There's a lot of people I can't tell apart, man
Rothuss Carder: Hell, most of them answer to their names.
Levi Reed: They name their food up in your town?
Rothuss Carder: Maybe we should mark your hair.
Rothuss Carder: Just so we can keep an eye on you.
Levi Reed: Not the worst idea I've ever heard
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yessssss
BOB hah
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol
Rothuss Carder: Is it daytime yet?
Levi Reed: Yeah, same
Levi Reed: I mean
Levi Reed: This is delightful, I hope it continues for hours more
BOB It is time for third watch
The time is 2:13 AM
TMO (Rothuss Carder): hey, it worked!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Levi Reed: Hey, sweetcheeks, time to get up!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Ask and he shalt give
Rothuss Carder: Alright, you wake up Vee. See you in the morning, buddy.
Levi Reed: gently kicks Vee
Lemon (Levi Reed): she's got wax, she couldn't hear that!
Vee Barlett: opens and eye and glares out of it
Vee Barlett: What?
Levi Reed: Your watch
Vee Barlett: What??
Vee Barlett: removes wax from an ear
Levi Reed: prepares to kick harder
Levi Reed: YOUR WATCH
Rothuss Carder: finds himself a clear spot on the ground and rolls up under his blanket after shaking it out.
Vee Barlett: Oh, got it. Man forgot how good earplugs work.
Vee Barlett: I should wear them around ya more often.
Vee Barlett: yawns and stretches
Levi Reed: Some giants are playing some music across the lake there. Other than that, nothing happening
TMO (Rothuss Carder): brb, afk for a few
Vee Barlett: Good. Hope it stays that way.
User has gone AFK. (TMO)
Vee Barlett: And you two didn't kill each other, yeah?
Levi Reed: Pretty sure Rothuss was purposly trying to annoy them by playing a song to interrupt their song, but so far no giants coming to check on us
Levi Reed: Not yet
Vee Barlett: Might be they can't swim or somethin' would eat 'em if they tried
Vee Barlett: Good. I wanna watch when one of ya snaps.
Vee Barlett: Now go to sleep so I can wake Violette without ya gettin' on me about it.
Levi Reed: Gross
Vee Barlett: grins
Levi Reed: goes to sleep
Vee Barlett: kisses Violette awake
Violette Snipes: Hmmmm
Vee Barlett: Up and at 'em/
Violette Snipes: Let's stay in bed
Vee Barlett: Much as I like cuddlin' it ain't good to do when on adventures.
Vee Barlett: Gotta be more business-like.
Violette Snipes: We can make it an adventure
Vee Barlett: laughs
Vee Barlett: Nah, I get in shipmode. Hard to convince me.
Violette Snipes: Hmmmm
Vee Barlett: lightly disintangles herself and stands up
Violette Snipes: So firm
Vee Barlett: You gonna get cold.
Violette Snipes: laughs lightly
Violette Snipes: stands up
Vee Barlett: We survive then there'll be cuddles later.
Violette Snipes: Yawns
Violette Snipes: good
Vee Barlett: You sleep well then?
Violette Snipes: Nice and warm cuddly
Vee Barlett: Levi says some giants playin' music but I ain't hear anything when I was sleepin'
Violette Snipes: I did not hear anything to wake me up
Vee Barlett: Might be a quiet part of the lake.
Violette Snipes: If the giants are from the water? or the jungle?
Vee Barlett: Thinkin' he means that jungle camp we saw.
Violette Snipes: This is one of the busier parts, people coming down from the top of the bowl, down towards the river and waterfalls heading down to the sea
Violette Snipes: We are close to the first drop
Vee Barlett: First drop?
Image: Borinquen
Carissa (Vee Barlett): maps mean nothing if I don't understand the referenceeeee
Violette Snipes: Where the lake squeezes in to the river
Violette Snipes: there are rapids and locks
Vee Barlett: Ah gotcha. Do ships pass through here at night?
Violette Snipes: well sort of locks
Violette Snipes: It would be dangerous
Vee Barlett: Shiplock? Them fun to see. Kinda ingenius.
Violette Snipes: It is a group of people who put up a moveable wall, help the water build up then pull it back and let the ship go
Vee Barlett: I like sailin' through the night on the sea. It's very tranquil usually.
Vee Barlett: Yeah! Those locks! They cool to watch.
Violette Snipes: I have never been on the sea
Violette Snipes: the lake seems big enough
Vee Barlett: Nah, I can see the edges.
Vee Barlett: Ocean has an endless horizon. Endless potential.
BOB It is miles across, and many more long so it is a big lake and feel free to name it if you like
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Eerie
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol
BOB grins
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not to be confused with erie
BOB and the small one farther up is Ontario?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Dontario. Not to be confused with Ontario.
BOB farther below lake ontario, takes in what lake eerie can send her
BOB grins so let it be written
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wait wait
BOB Upper lake lower lake
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I vote Uron. Not to be confused with lake Huron
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ove Dontario
Carissa (Vee Barlett): *over
BOB Uron flows down to Eerie and down to the shores of the sea
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yup
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hmm.... except my georaphy dislikes that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): sigh
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vontario
BOB You can decide later
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's a hard deicision!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): OH!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Or we just... go with the same naming scheme
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Oontario
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Oontario into Eerie
wyjyoon (Temperance): Thus she goes with the flow of naming : )
Carissa (Vee Barlett): people like their double vowels up here
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yup I'm good with that now then moving on
Vee Barlett: So whatcha wanna do with yer life anyways, Violette? Got any goals or plans or somethin'?
Violette Snipes: Ma needs help
Violette Snipes: The Church always seemed like a safe choice
Violette Snipes: Nothing exciting happens here
Violette Snipes: But that is a good thing from hearing stories about exciting things
Vee Barlett: Yeah, ya told me yer mom needs help. Ain't nothin' wrong with helping yer parents, but it's nice when you WANT to help 'em 'cause it aligns with what you like too, ya know?
Violette Snipes: I don't know, we are having fun, but then you will leave so I can't really get too carried away, I have to think about what I need to do for family
Violette Snipes: You said you do things for your dads
Vee Barlett: nods
Vee Barlett: Yeah, it aligns with what I like doin', yeah?
Vee Barlett: And as long as yer havin' fun now that's what matters.
Violette Snipes: Warm smile at Vee
Vee Barlett: I just like hearin' about peoples dreams and stuff, ya know?
Vee Barlett: What they wanna do with their life and stuff.
Vee Barlett: Even if they can't do it
Vee Barlett: How long yer family livin' up these parts?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Brb
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the silence makes me worried abotu what bob is setting up...
Violette Snipes: I guess my mom has been here all her life
BOB added The Bowl pages so we can take notes there
Violette Snipes: My dad was from the other side of the mountain so he never really fit in
Violette Snipes: but my mom was always here
Vee Barlett: You ever been to the other side before?
Violette Snipes: Just up to the Orphanage
Violette Snipes: Never down the other side far
Vee Barlett: I wonder what it's like on that side. I ain't got interest in it, still too far from the sea, but slight curiosity, I guess.
Vee Barlett: You know anything about the Snow Guy?
BOB That is the side you are from, you are on the other side of the mountain now in The Bowl, the opposite of your side and the sea
Carissa (Vee Barlett): OOOH lol
Vee Barlett: Oh wait, you mean my side of the mountain?
Violette Snipes: I have heard Mr Snow is very protective
Vee Barlett: yawns
Vee Barlett: Sorry I'm still a bit sleepy.
Vee Barlett: He seems like a jerk. I ain't a huge fan of his wife, neither. A little stuck up.
Violette Snipes: The kids have always seemed taken care of
Violette Snipes: they come through and down the river to the lake once in a while when they travel down to the sea
Violette Snipes: Those are the kids the Church does not keep I guess
Vee Barlett: Ms Mirny seemed to have good memories of her time there so guess that's good for them. But I ain't got any desire to stay near there.
Vee Barlett: The kids do?
Vee Barlett: Maybe they goin' to the cathedral.
Violette Snipes: They have people with them
Violette Snipes: Maybe? they go, I do not notice any of them coming back
Vee Barlett: Huh. I doubt he'd do slave tradin' but wonder what the purpose of their journey is?
Violette Snipes: My mother always said if you were good he would send you to the church, if you were bad he would send you down the river
Violette Snipes: But I don't know if it is bad down river
Vee Barlett: Hmm, my curiosity is a bit peeked.
Vee Barlett: Dependin' where they land, I suppose.
Vee Barlett: Parts of the city can be rough if they ain't go nowhere to go.
Vee Barlett: I imagine if they did end up at the cathedral... they strict. I ain't a fan of them, neither.
Violette Snipes: It must be ok though, there can't be too many people after all
Vee Barlett: tilts head
Vee Barlett: Too many people in the city or goin' down river?
Violette Snipes: In the city,
Violette Snipes: I hear there are pretty castles
Violette Snipes: but that does not take a lot of people
Vee Barlett: LOTS of people in the city. It's one of my favorite places. Ya can get lost in a crowd easily.
Violette Snipes: How could there be lots of people? how do they fish? or find food in the forest?
Vee Barlett: Oh, ain't no forest there. Lots of docks, but most of them go out to sea to fish and bring it back in. Or import stuff from other cities and such. Or bring fruits from the orchards back to the city from up river.
Violette Snipes: That just seems so strenge
Violette Snipes: I trade some knitting for some bacon
Violette Snipes: but how much more could someone do?
Violette Snipes: I guess it is complicated
Vee Barlett: nods
Vee Barlett: A whole 'nother world for sure.
Violette Snipes: I wonder if I will see it
Vee Barlett: Guessin' it depends whatcha decide to do when I gotta head out.
Violette Snipes: I hope we get to dive down and see if the pearl is still there
Violette Snipes: warm smiles and gives her hand a quick squeeze
Vee Barlett: But if ya ever decide later, ya gotta tell me. I know the city well and can make sure ya don't get lost.
Vee Barlett: kisses her cheek
Violette Snipes: giggles
Vee Barlett: Once it gets light out, we'll look at the ship.
Violette Snipes: I know we need to be quick but I hope we can find some urchins for you
Vee Barlett: Wish I could see better in the dark.
Vee Barlett: Ya! They damn good food.
Vee Barlett: Gotta show Rothuss it ain't a kid.
Violette Snipes: They are good for eating and if we are lucky they might have a pearl inside too
Violette Snipes: Or ink
Vee Barlett: Huh?
Violette Snipes: Lirtimya might like that
Violette Snipes: some urchins have little pearls in side
Violette Snipes: others have little ink sacks
Vee Barlett: We talkin' about the same thing?
Violette Snipes: the different ones seem to collect different things
Violette Snipes: small little things with tentacles?
Violette Snipes: moving around like flowers?
Vee Barlett: Nah, them octopuses.
Vee Barlett: OR starfish? Huh...
Violette Snipes: I heard those were in the sea?
Vee Barlett: Sea urchins I know are spiky and don't hold nothin' inside except delicious goop.
Violette Snipes: These are like little .... pots? little blobs
Vee Barlett: frowns
Vee Barlett: Maybe it somethin' I don't know?
Violette Snipes: They taste good
Vee Barlett: Anenome?
Violette Snipes: but they take things inside too when they eat
Violette Snipes: and some of them turn them into pearls
Carissa (Vee Barlett): LIKE-LIKES
Vee Barlett: (LINK)
<a href="https://zelda.fandom.com/wiki/Like_Like">(LINK)</a>
Vee Barlett: And they taste good?
BOB Huh never seen those
Violette Snipes: yeah
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol if you haven't played Zelda, no you wouldn't
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but it's been around since the 80s so....
Violette Snipes: They are good but you have to get bigger ones so there is more meat
Violette Snipes: and they are the ones that collect things inside
Carissa (Vee Barlett): they eat your character and steal your stuff but sit there like aneomoes....depending which game it is
Vee Barlett: Can they eat people?
Vee Barlett: I don't think I know these things so ain't sure what I need to be careful about.
Violette Snipes: I guess if they got really big and the person was really small
TMO (Rothuss Carder): *looks around for Indigo*
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol you read my mind
Violette Snipes: They are normally about this big (she holds her hands about a foot apart) and as long as you do not let them bite you it is ok
BOB grins good
Vee Barlett: Thankfully we only got some with small brains, but they still big bodied.
Vee Barlett: What happens if they bite you?
Violette Snipes: Some people get really sick
Violette Snipes: Like if a snake bit them
Vee Barlett: So how do ya harvest them safely?
Violette Snipes: Being careful
Vee Barlett: Guess I can stab them with my trident...
Vee Barlett: Can they reach far?
Violette Snipes: Only the blue ones
Vee Barlett: Huh?
Violette Snipes: They only reach right nearby
Vee Barlett: What colors are they? Why am I only goin' after blue ones?
Violette Snipes: The blue ones have pearls or at least those are the ones that have the most luck at having pearls
Violette Snipes: the yellow and red ones tend to have ink
Violette Snipes: and the black ones are just icky
Vee Barlett: Oh that's borin'
Violette Snipes: no one likes the black ones
Vee Barlett: What's icky about them?
Violette Snipes: They taste icky
Vee Barlett: And nothin' inside?
Violette Snipes: I don't know
Vee Barlett: Ya never looked?
Violette Snipes: I always throw them back
Vee Barlett: Should we look?
Violette Snipes: We can
Violette Snipes: if we find them
Vee Barlett: Maybe they got pearls AND ink!
Lemon (Levi Reed): Isn't it still dark?
The time is 4:53 AM
Vee Barlett: What's their normal habitat? Hangin' on rocks? Bed of lake or...?
Violette Snipes: I always find them hidden in little crevices in the rocks deeper in the water
Vee Barlett: nods
Violette Snipes: But then they grow bigger
Violette Snipes: and stick out alot
Vee Barlett: I gotta see how you hunt and harvest them then.
Violette Snipes: They can move but not fast
Violette Snipes: Only in a little burst but mostly just barely creep from rock to rock
Vee Barlett: Fascinatin'
Vee Barlett: Definitely ain't familiar with yer urchins.
Violette Snipes: You need to hold your breath a long time sometimes
Vee Barlett: I did think it weird they was in freshwater, but guessin' 'cause they aren't what I think
Violette Snipes: I am glad you have dagger
Vee Barlett: grins
Vee Barlett: Lots of daggers and knives on me.
Violette Snipes: Makes it easier to pry them out
Vee Barlett: Not as fun as shankin' someone, but easy to do.
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Violette Snipes: smiles
Vee Barlett: Big pearl is in the oyster, tho, yeah?
Violette Snipes: Yeah
Violette Snipes: It is right under the ship
Vee Barlett: So gotta check out this shipwreck, find the big oyster, and if lucky, get some "urchins"
Vee Barlett: Sounds like a fun day!
Vee Barlett: Maybe I'll even meet a mermaid.
Violette Snipes: I know we can find some urchins, I hope the ship did not hurt the oyster
Violette Snipes: I can be a mermaid for you
Vee Barlett: laughs
Vee Barlett : [Translation] Can you?
<font color="#000000">Can you?
[understood by: Vee Barlett]
Violette Snipes: She just smiles a tad confused
Lemon (Levi Reed): That's some weird bedroom RP but whatever floats your boat
Vee Barlett: kisses her again
Vee Barlett: That look cute.
Violette Snipes: warm smile
The time is 6:13 AM
Vee Barlett: Well hopin' this ship holds some fun treasures still. Maybe that magic ring I want in there...
Violette Snipes: Goes over to wake up Temp
Vee Barlett: goes to wake up Rothuss
Vee Barlett: I'm bein' nice and lettin' you wake Levi again.
Vee Barlett: frowns when he doesn't wake up and kicks him again
Vee Barlett: Right, nevermind.
Vee Barlett: walks over to Levi
Vee Barlett: Yo. Go wake up Rothuss, yeah?
Temperance: rubs her eyes and stretches.
Vee Barlett: You was nicer than normal wakin' me so I'll be nice. This time.
Rothuss Carder: huh?
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Rothuss Carder: wha?
Vee Barlett: throws up her hands in annoyance and walks away from them both
Rothuss Carder: zzzz
Lemon (Levi Reed): You'll have to do slightly better than just talking in a normal voice
Lemon (Levi Reed): I mean, Levi's no Rothuss, but he can sleep through THAT
Vee Barlett: goes to the lake, fills a bucket full of water, and pours it over both of them.
Temperance: stands to do a better stretch.
Vee Barlett: goes to the lake, fills a bucket full of water, and pours it over both of them.
Levi Reed: WHAT THE FUCK VEE
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (or whatever she has that is bucket like)
Temperance: blinks at the water being poured.
Vee Barlett: I told ya both to wake up.
Rothuss Carder: reaches out to make sure his lute is still dry in its case.
Levi Reed: I'm remembering this next time it's my turn to wake you
Vee Barlett: You get one chance then it's the water.
Rothuss Carder: zzzz
Vee Barlett: Yeah, ain't no different than how I've been woken up before.
Levi Reed: Did Bubbles come back?
Vee Barlett: smacks Rothuss with the bucket
Vee Barlett: Who?
Rothuss Carder: flails an arm in her direction.
Rothuss Carder: Not very nice way to wake me up, Cap'n.....
Vee Barlett: Gonna punch ya in the face next time.
Levi Reed: Bubbles!
Levi Reed: My monkey!
Vee Barlett: Who??
Vee Barlett: You hate monkeys.
Rothuss Carder: Hey, I pulled two shifts. No respite for the wicked, eh?
Vee Barlett: You don't got one.
Levi Reed: Not when they're ghosts
Vee Barlett: Not when there's stuff to do. You can sleep it off when we go back.
Vee Barlett: Ghost monkey still a monkey, dude.
Vee Barlett: You can't hate his friends and be his friend. Ya know that, right?
Rothuss Carder: Rude...
Levi Reed: So who's making breakfast
Rothuss Carder: starts trying to get up off the ground.
Vee Barlett: walks off so they wake up
BOB grins
Vee Barlett: Lirt ain't feelin' well so Tempe can or ya eat rations.
Temperance: I can try.
wyjyoon (Temperance): (unless it requires a cooking nwp)
Levi Reed: Nobody's ever feeling good these days. I think there's something wrong with this inland air
Carissa (Vee Barlett): anyone can try, just might not be good lol
Vee Barlett: I agree.
Vee Barlett: Hopin' the water got healin' powers otherwise we gotta get to the sea soon.
Rothuss Carder: rolls onto his hands and knees, and stays there for a while.
Levi Reed: You praying or being sick?
Rothuss Carder: not awake yet..
Rothuss Carder: alright,alright...
Rothuss Carder: ungggh
Rothuss Carder: staggers to his feet, leaning slightly to one side.
Temperance: approaches the edge towards the water, looking around as she stretches.
Temperance: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 1] [d20 = 12]
Levi Reed: So what's the plan here
BOB Temp does not spot any danger
BOB But she does need to meditate for her spells
Levi Reed: You find any mermaids or sirekies or whatever you were looking for, Vee?
Vee Barlett: Not yet.
Temperance: nods to herself and sits for a while to meditate, listening to the waves lull back and forth.
Vee Barlett: We let Tempe do her thing then we go look at the shipwreck.
BOB 10 rounds per spell level she is memorizing
BOB so 10 minutes
BOB and she needs how many spells ?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Are we talking total spell slots?
wyjyoon (Temperance): 6 first level spells and 4 2nd level ones?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): 140 minutes
TMO (Rothuss Carder): so over 2 hours
TMO (Rothuss Carder): IF you want to refill everything. You can do less I bet
wyjyoon (Temperance): I think I used three spell slots total so far
wyjyoon (Temperance): 2 1st level and 1 2nd level
BOB Which ever ones you need to fill
wyjyoon (Temperance): But I could be wrong
BOB there you go
wyjyoon (Temperance): I'll do meditation for one first level spell then
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I think the rule was written on the assumption that your spells were supposed to last for an entire adventure, other than maybe a few individual slots refilled along the way. And then get them all back at home
BOB so that would be how many minutes for those three spells?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if it's just three that's 30 minuts
BOB For wizards yes to TMO
wyjyoon (Temperance): I thought 30 too
BOB rare to bring your spell books with you
Carissa (Vee Barlett): didn't mean to answer for Bob, was typing that out loud
TMO (Rothuss Carder): 40 (2x10 + 1x20)
BOB and yes Carissa is a mathologist
wyjyoon (Temperance): Hurrah mathmotologist : )
BOB TMO is the Mathmotologist though
BOB and so he actually has it right
Carissa (Vee Barlett): this is an annoying new rules we've started to care about so I vote my answer as a compromise to it's stupidity
BOB LOL
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol
BOB it was always there, just wake at 6 start the day at 8
BOB now you are starting your day at 6 so doing the little things
Carissa (Vee Barlett): nah mate we weren't THAT strict with it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we cast ALL the spells so it would have been like a whole day to regain!
BOB just said two hours to memorize spells
Carissa (Vee Barlett): fineee fineee if it never becomes more than
BOB chuckles
Carissa (Vee Barlett): guess Levi has to make breakfast then
wyjyoon (Temperance): I mean, I still have a few slots left
Carissa (Vee Barlett): two hours all your spells done
BOB yes to Levi or Roth cooking
wyjyoon (Temperance): Ok, meditate for two hours then?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I can help... I wouldn't want to trust the whole thing to him
BOB and yes to starting next week with full spells, full HP and maybe full stomachs?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I will be late
Lemon (Levi Reed): Levi's basically useless
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not sure by how much and won't until that day
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol the trust levels in Levi post-ghost monkey
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I will be with my family next week, so no idea if it'll be busy that night or not. We're usually pretty good about being available though.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well you know, Levi accuses Rothuss of contradictions but him and his ghost monkey are the biggest one here
Carissa (Vee Barlett): maybe sharif will surprise us on friday
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Oh, I meant I wouldn't want to trust the whole meal to Rothuss. I realize I used both "i" and "Him" in the same sentence to refer to Rothuss though.
Lemon (Levi Reed): A ghost is different than a real live monkey
Carissa (Vee Barlett): to be fair... I don't ttrust either
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no it isn't
Carissa (Vee Barlett): again you can't like the ghost but hate it's live counterparts
Lemon (Levi Reed): Take it up with Levi and Bixi
BOB lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I did and I'm trying to help Levi see that he might never be friends with the ghost if he won't reconcile with the live ones
TMO (Rothuss Carder): But really, *is* there a difference between an imaginary ghost, an imaginary monnkey, or an imaginary ghost monkey?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Well... he's definitely going to do that so
Lemon (Levi Reed): Goodbye ghost monkey
Carissa (Vee Barlett): eh if we ever see it again we can try the medallion thing
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but it's definitely working with the living ones
Carissa: so stopping here for the night?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Maybe it's working with the living ones or maybe it just doesn't know it's dead yet
Lemon (Levi Reed): The Bruce Willis of monkeys
BOB Seems like the right spot
Carissa: if it doesn't know it's dead yet I feel like Levi will have an even HARDER time trying to make friends with it
Carissa: like if he knows he's a ghost, he can belke, yeah I know you tihnk I'm cool but gotta like my friends too
Lemon (Levi Reed): I already feel like it's not possible, but I am not Levi. Levi is dumb af
Carissa: but if he doesn't know then he's going to be extra offended because he doesn't know he's a cool ghost
Carissa: ....he is..........
Carissa: just gotta keep protecting him from himself :P
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Lemon (Levi Reed): Number one danger to Levi is... Levi
Carissa: yuuuuup
Carissa: number 2 is vee
wyjyoon: Sounds like some doppelganger stuff
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Carissa: lol
Carissa: you should bring that up IC some time
TMO: Rothuss isn't a danger to anything except patience and maybe sanity
Carissa: I feel like it was before but that might be an head explosion realization
BOB hah
Carissa: he's number 1 on vee's hit list
Lemon (Levi Reed): And all the single ladies
TMO: he's not a 'danger' to them.... ;)
Lemon (Levi Reed): Agree to disagree on that one
TMO: temptation, maybe...
Carissa: you keep believing that
Carissa: him believing that is WHY he's a danger to them :)
Lemon (Levi Reed): idk what you expect from an Ace lol
TMO: hey, he doesn't make it his whole identity, unlike some.
Carissa: pretty sure rothuss has flirted with more than anyone so far this campaign...
Lemon (Levi Reed): But someone flirting as agressively as Rothuss IRL is definitely a danger sign lol
Carissa: oh gods yeah, he'd be labeled a creep
Carissa: sorry man
Carissa: something something poor boy and fantasy
Carissa: probably a good time for me to say: good night!
Lemon (Levi Reed): Lol, I'm out too. Goodnight friends!
wyjyoon: Goodnight guys : )
'Carissa' disconnected
'Lemon' disconnected

BOB smiles
