GM: Hello Wendy

wyjyoon: Hello, hello!

GM: Smile

wyjyoon: How was your week?

GM: It was fun how was yours?

wyjyoon: A little hectic, but fun too! Got a new batch of kids for summer school : )

GM: Fun?

wyjyoon: It's fun getting to know them and their boundaries! Although- I guess it's more hectic than fun lol

GM: Did you see that we will be playing next week?

GM: Are you up for that?

wyjyoon: ? We will? Was it on the site or in the discord? Discord's been logging me out every time I try to send a message, so I haven't tried to log back in.

GM: Both but only like a hour ago did I post

wyjyoon: Oh okay! I'll be checking site to make sure I get the details : )

'seyfert' connected

GM: and now Carissa is in

seyfert: hello@

wyjyoon: I think I'll make it for July 5th's session, but if for some reason that changes I'll post on communications or... try discord again.

wyjyoon: Hey Carissa!

seyfert: Bob will be in Africa so no game that Friday so you're good! As long as you're here next week.

wyjyoon: Oh, next week! Yeah, I'll be fine : )

seyfert: Woo!

wyjyoon: I missed a whole week when I was looking at the calendar lol

GM: smiles

seyfert: that sounds familiar, lol

seyfert: I do that often

GM: We are playing NEXT week, then skip two weeks

GM: If you want to be here

wyjyoon: Gotcha, and I do as long as I am able!

wyjyoon: Learning new things about D&D is fun : )

GM: grins

seyfert: :)

seyfert: you missed the mermaids

seyfert: merman

wyjyoon: MERMAN??

wyjyoon: Did Vee ask him to turn her into a mermaid?? :D

wyjyoon: Wow I did miss a lot

wyjyoon: Need to go back and read story chat for that one.

seyfert: lol scroll to blue texy

GM: grins

wyjyoon: He made an offer WOW

wyjyoon: And Vee goes Nope, my friends can't swim

seyfert: lLess them and more she can't hold her breath long enough

seyfert: BUT she did say she'd take a date next time and they should pass by on their way to the city....

seyfert: she just needs a ring of water breathing or something *COUGH COUGH DM COUGH*

wyjyoon: That's fair. I just assumed the offer came with giving her the ability to breathe underwater forever

seyfert: dunni about that

seyfert: and I think the offer was just to makeout, lmao

'Master TMO' connected

wyjyoon: Oh, seriously? I mean- I guess the kissing part kinda made that pretty blatant, but my brain didn't connect it all together

GM: I have a plan for an adventure that includes things like water breathing rings, etc in the treasure

wyjyoon: If she wants it and consents, I'd say take a date and swim to her heart's content : D

GM: Welcome TMO

seyfert: right but Vee wants it and she wants it NOOWWWWW

seyfert: (what commerical is that?)

GM: That is Violet from Willy Wonka

wyjyoon: Is it the girl who wanted the squirrel?

seyfert: lol

'JtomTMO' connected

GM: Hey there JTom

seyfert: hmmm not I think it's also a commercial/....

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): it's also a Queen song

GM: This is true

GM: I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): I like that song better than Bohemian Rhapsody, personally.

seyfert: OH! I was misquoting it but this is what I was thinking

seyfert: (LINK)

GM: yes, many better songs

wyjyoon: I personally like Another One Bites the Dust

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lalright putting my other distraction away since there's three of us

wyjyoon: It gets stuck in my head so easily.

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Don't Stop Me Now is a favorite

GM: refilling and then we can start to get the most out of JTom before TMO makes him work more

GM: Carissa that was rated at the number one Feel Better song

JtomTMO: Hello!

seyfert (Vee Barlett): sure that's a thing?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Hello!

'LemonyLemon' connected

GM: and welcome Lemon

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Hello

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Hello!

Temperance: Hello, hello!

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): what map are we on? I've got a black River Fork map

wyjyoon (Temperance): ooc

GM: No map

wyjyoon (Temperance): River Fork?

GM: You are in the village (no map) in the morning

GM: after sleeping the night with Violette

seyfert (Vee Barlett): overnight healing?

GM: As soon as I click that time off

GM: I was double checking with people before advancing,

seyfert (Vee Barlett): so we hopefully won't get into a fight....

GM: things like Temp doing healing....

GM: who was not here last week to do it for you, grins

seyfert (Vee Barlett): oh true, guess Tempe can heal before we sleep

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): I have my portable grenade launcher, just in case

Vee Barlett: Yo, Tempe. My leg feels knarly. Can ya heal it up a bit so I can sleep better? Or ya use it all earlier?

Vee Barlett: On the... er... other beings we met?

Vee Barlett: glances where Violette's mom might be hiding nearby

Temperance: I think I can do some healing, yes. Wouldn't do for you to be tossing and turning when you rest.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Hang on, tracked spell slots in notes...

Violette Snipes: Yes it would be horrible for her to be thrashing around all night moaning and crying out

Vee Barlett: turners her snicker into a cough

Vee Barlett: *turns

wyjyoon (Temperance): I have 2 first level spells and 4 2nd level spells : D

wyjyoon (Temperance): Does anyone else need the healing or is it just Vee?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): yay spells! we're in a safe place so you should be able to use all you want

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh wait and Lirt

GM: Vee, Temp, Rothuss, Mel all are down

seyfert (Vee Barlett): same days as the urchin attack so Lirt can't yet

GM: Lirt is tomorrow

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh wow, all of us are? Dang, okay

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Levi is the only one not hurt because he didn't go into water

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): He's the only smart one lol

seyfert (Vee Barlett): no comment :)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Since Orison is only considered 1st level, I'll use both spell slots for that and then whatever else I can do Cure Moderate : )

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Roth and Vee are the lowest of the four

seyfert (Vee Barlett): or most hurt I should say

seyfert (Vee Barlett): So you can do it two ways: use orison to guarantee healing Mel and Tempe without wasting poitns

seyfert (Vee Barlett): OR do all orison on the lowest and gamble on the ones least hurt

wyjyoon (Temperance): I'll do Orison on the most hurt, and then do Cure Moderate for the rest : )

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Combat Tracker shows how far down everyone is if you aren't looking at it. Mel 6, Tempe 3, Roth 13, and Vee 11

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): from the party sheet, looks like it's in order: Lirt, Roth, Vee, MeL, Tempe

seyfert (Vee Barlett): (no Lirt yet)

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): acknowledged, just didn't want to skip her

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Vee would never. Roth? Maybe, but not Lirt :P

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): fair point

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

wyjyoon (Temperance): Calculating HP conversions : )

seyfert (Vee Barlett): TMO is our resident mathpersonologist if you need

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): how can I help?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): give me your math brain

wyjyoon (Temperance): Just double check my notes for me! I wrote that if I'm Level 3 I can memorize 6 effects of orison

wyjyoon (Temperance): And one orison is 1 HP?

GM: right

wyjyoon (Temperance): So if I'm level 4, does that increase to 7 effects of Orison?

GM: Yes

wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay cool, so 7 HP per slot?

GM: Up to a max of 9 when you get to higher levels

wyjyoon (Temperance): Right, but at her current level

seyfert (Vee Barlett): yup

wyjyoon (Temperance): Is 7 HP the correct amount?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay cool

GM: Yes

wyjyoon (Temperance): I'll do seven each for Rothuss and Vee, if you both are okay with it and take care of the rest with Cure Moderate? Or would you prefer me to dump both onto one person?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): nah overnight healing gives us... what Bob? 2? 3? So we're okay

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): what about do the Moderate first, and see what's left, then apply the Orison to fill whatever gaps are left?

Vee Barlett's health adjusted by +7

Rothuss Carder's health adjusted by +7

wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't mind doing that too! We can do Cure Moderate first and then Orison for the rest

MeLange's health adjusted by +3

seyfert (Vee Barlett): You can do whichever you feel more comfortable with doing

Rothuss Carder's health adjusted by +3

seyfert (Vee Barlett): in this situation there isn't really a right or wrong

Vee Barlett's health adjusted by +3

wyjyoon (Temperance): Then we'll do the Cure Moderate first and then Orison : )

Temperance's health adjusted by +3

wyjyoon (Temperance): I feel like that's the way to go today

seyfert (Vee Barlett): too late, Bob applied it lmao

GM: And I will click things to morning you can continue to discuss and RP

seyfert (Vee Barlett): yay we'r healed!

wyjyoon (Temperance): Yay!

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I can not be almost dead!

Temperance: I

GM: Also on the Party Sheet you can see the damage amounts too, not sure which you prefer the CT or the Party Sheet

seyfert (Vee Barlett): would we have been fully healed though? we'll never know...

wyjyoon (Temperance): I'll cure Lirt once I meditate to get my spell slots back

seyfert (Vee Barlett): T for me

seyfert (Vee Barlett): *CT

wyjyoon (Temperance): I'm used to accessing the CT as well

The date is Ko____se, 26th Ze (Summer), 587 SGR

Young Moon's phase is Morning Crescent

Old Moon's phase is Waxing Gibbous

The time is 5:53 AM

Vee Barlett: snores

GM: Now we need a vote, should Vee lose 1 to 3 HP for her excessive thrashing in the middle of the night?

wyjyoon (Temperance): ?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): she was healed so there was no thrashing :P

GM: LOL

wyjyoon (Temperance): She can lose HP from thrashing?

GM: She was healed so MORE thrashing?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): no because Lirt was also in the room

GM: Ahhh

seyfert (Vee Barlett): she had to behave

GM: then sadly no thrashing

GM: But it is morning

Vee Barlett: still snoring

Temperance: rubs her eyes and stretches

Temperance: stares blankly off into space while she processes the morning.

Lirtimya: Stretches and sits up

Rothuss Carder: snores

Temperance: Meditate... spells...

Temperance: mumbles to herself blearily

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): Bonk me with the power, Magic Daddy!

GM: LOL

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

Temperance: sleepily adjusts her posture into a sitting position and begins meditating (and hopefully not falling asleep)

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Does Lirt have to meditate or does she read from a spell book?

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Or does she just, remember them?

GM: She can now study for spells

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): from her books

GM: She clears her mind, relaxes

Lirtimya: Goes over her spells, and prepares herself for the day

Levi Reed: still sleeping

Levi Reed: rolls over and accidentally kicks MeLange really hard

seyfert (Vee Barlett): in the same bed? scandelous!

seyfert (Vee Barlett): he should punch Rothuss

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Hey, what Violette's mom doesn't know won't hurt her

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

GM: For Temp's planning LIrt needs 10 point

wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes, just trying to see what would be best for her healing-wise. Probably Orison is the safer of the two

wyjyoon (Temperance): Don't want to accidentally cause light wounds and knock her back out lol

GM: 1 orison for 7 to Lirt to start

GM: then you decide beyond that

wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes, thank you

GM: so check off 1 1st level for the orison

Lirtimya's health adjusted by +7

wyjyoon (Temperance): Am I supposed to click on one of the white circles in the actions tab to do that? Or am I doing something else to check off?

GM: Yes to click one radio button there

GM: Can you do that?

GM: or do you need me to do it?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): brb

User has gone AFK. (seyfert)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Er... maybe you should? I dunno what the radio button is

wyjyoon (Temperance): Maybe I'm not seeing it

wyjyoon (Temperance): Nice, thank you!

wyjyoon (Temperance): Now I can risk it with Cure Light or Cure Moderate

GM: No one else is down enough for that

wyjyoon (Temperance): I was hoping to do some more for Lirt since she's down 3 still

GM: Only 3 points at the most for anyone

GM: You could do one more orison if you want, you can split those up between people but Cure Light cannot

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): 10 pts total split among the 4 of us, if I'm reading right

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh, that's a fair point. I'll do that

wyjyoon (Temperance): Thanks for walking me through : )

wyjyoon (Temperance): For some reason I'm counting only 7 pts, but my math is probably off

wyjyoon (Temperance): So full 3 HP for Lirt and divide for the rest?

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): Lirt 3, Mel 3, Roth 3, Vee 1, by my reading.

wyjyoon (Temperance): OH I didn't count Mel that's why

GM: But only 7 per Orison

wyjyoon (Temperance): Sorry Mel

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): we rarely do

wyjyoon (Temperance): Then we'll go for Lirt and Mel in full, so 3 each, and then that'll be 1 for Vee left?

wyjyoon (Temperance): And then Rothuss I'll heal with Cure Light

GM: Ok

GM: Just noting who has the most HP overall

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): Levi

GM: While she is not here, Vee has the most so no point in healing her

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh okay

Lirtimya's health adjusted by +3

wyjyoon (Temperance): It just evened out to 1 left so I assumed it would go to Vee

GM: So I did the first three

GM: to Lirt

GM: so she is max

GM: you have 4 left to distribute

wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes, we need her smarts : )

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Yay no longer almost dead!

wyjyoon (Temperance): I'd say Mel next, unless he's not going to be here

wyjyoon (Temperance): Then Rothuss

GM: So 2 to Mel and 2 to Roth

wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes

MeLange's health adjusted by +2

Rothuss Carder's health adjusted by +2

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): she can kiss the leftover booboos all better, right? that works for clerics, right?

GM: and I clicked off the next button for you

GM: and LOL with TMO

wyjyoon (Temperance): Thanks BOB : )

GM: and that would be an awesome Priest power

wyjyoon (Temperance): If Bandaids exist then she'll give you bandaids : )

GM: Kisses of Healing

GM: Make out with your priest to get full healing

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh lord

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): I can see that working for some religions

GM: Very much

wyjyoon (Temperance): Would they have a reverse version? Like the kiss of death?

GM: And also the "this power comes when you are a Grandmother" and she kisses your booboos away

GM: NICE Wendy

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): technically, both Cure and Cause Wounds *could* work that way, if you wanted. They just require touch. Doesn't specify what kind.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Interesting

GM: smiles

wyjyoon (Temperance): I never thought of it that way

GM: I like that TMO

GM: SO Lirt has her spells for the day

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): Fireball, Fireball, Fireball?

GM: you are heading uphill again to go back to the Church of the Mists

GM: You should have a conversation after you leave the village for A - what you have that is valuable B - what do you want to potentially trade away and C - did you want to do more training with them before heading downhill again and home

GM: also your original thought from months ago of get things, give them to the Church so you bank up favors they owe you

Rothuss Carder: Yeah, there's things Ratbone and I *could* learn here, but I think we both're after thinigs we can't learn here also. And I don't know that you guys want to hang around forever either.

Temperance: I'm neither for nor against staying if need be, but if there's not more training to be done, we can keep traveling.

Temperance: Though I suppose having them owe us might help in a pinch.

Levi Reed: Wasn't the whole reason we came here for you guys to train?

GM: You can also use things to have the Temple owe you favors

GM: The goal is for you to do new things, have new people learn about you and build your reputations

Rothuss Carder: I remember we came here 'cuz the church down hill sent us. *shrug* I mean, we can stay if you want. I don't want to settle down or nothing.

GM: You have the Temple of Orange Sunsets, and the Church of the Mists now who are favorable to you

seyfert (Vee Barlett): (sory back)

GM: This is where there is a center for training... those with a proclivity towards sneaking and manipulating things

GM: Troubleshooters

wyjyoon (Temperance): BOB, does Temp have an NWP slot because of her level up? I don't remember if it was the NWP or the WP slot

GM: Investigators

User has gone AFK. (JtomTMO)

GM: Checking on the site

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): Rothuss has a couple thief skills still to learn, but he *can* technically teach himself those, just slowly

GM: Temp has one NWP open she has not trained for yet

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh okay cool

seyfert (Vee Barlett): WHOA WHOA WHOA scrolled up why we going back to the church??? We were going down river to Osterhold??

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): Rothuss and Ratbone both want to do non-thief NWPs, iirc. And Lirt. I think the only thing we could learn here right now are the thief skills that we're behind on.

GM: Once you get back to the Temple of the Orange Sunsets we call this story arc over and you get more XP etc and then I will update the Training page

GM: If you want to do that Carissa you need to go back down the hill to the lake and then find your way down through the river etc.

GM: You have not left yet

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Wait so... you're making us go back home so that we can get the xp that would give us spots for training... and then we have to come back here again to train???

GM: so you can talk that through

seyfert (Vee Barlett): it depends what we want to train

GM: Training can be done in lots of places

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Only Rothuss/Ratbone can learn up here

seyfert (Vee Barlett): I haven't a clue a reason we'd go back to Mists or what they could teach us. And Sunset is close by.

GM: This is a place to learn skills for Troubleshooters

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Troubleshooters or Troublemakers?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol Lemon

GM: Church of the Mists is on the way home to the Temple of Orange Sunsets

seyfert (Vee Barlett): And we discussed this before about if we wanted to click time here when it's just training one character and I wasn't a fan of that, personally

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): do you have the island map?

Image: Borinquen

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): I mean, I'm fine with whatever, Levi's got nothing he wants to do here

seyfert (Vee Barlett): same with Vee

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): can you put Lirt on the map where we are, Tempe at the Temple of Sunsets, Levi at Mists, Rothuss at the Troubleshooters, and Vee at Osterhold?

GM: No one should be on any map

GM: OH

seyfert (Vee Barlett): so draw circles

GM: I understand

GM: sorry

wyjyoon (Temperance): I was just considering a religion NWP since BOB keeps asking for it because of my priest role. But I'm assuming that can be done elsewhere besides Mists

seyfert (Vee Barlett): probably any church-y place including the cathedral

seyfert (Vee Barlett): since she doesn't belong to any of them here, it shouldn't matter which

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): sorry, I just don't have the geography of the island memorized

wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't have any geography memorized lol

Levi Reed: Advanced Effect ['Torch;LIGHT: 10/15 torch;Torch'] -> [to Levi Reed] [by Torch]

GM: Lirt and Rothuss would be on top of each other

GM: You are in a village a couple of miles down hill into The Bowl from the Church of the Mists

GM: So Lirt is there for both of those

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): God, can you imagine the giant that would create? If Mini and TMO were standing on top of each other?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): So my vote was and still is: go down river to Osterhold, sell our black market goods to get money for training, then once at the tavern we can decide who needs training where and when

GM: Sorry that was wrong ignore

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): still shorter than Roth's latest girlfriend

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol lemon

GM: Levi and Roth not Lirt

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): lol

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Anyway, I'm truly fine with whatever

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Is Osterhold where the dads are?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): yup

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, Levi's fine with taht

GM: because the troubleshooter training is at the Orphange near where Lirt is and the Church of the Mists is where Levi is and all of that is within a couple of miles of each other

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Vee was learning Weather Sensing from Lirt. Her other open slot she was saving for now.

GM: yes to Osterhold bing the city where Vee is

seyfert (Vee Barlett): I don't want to get boggled down in planning

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Levi has no problem seeing Vee's dads again

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): Lirt to Levi to Vee?

Vee Barlett: sharpens her knives

GM: The actual things to balance for the travel/planning

wyjyoon (Temperance): If we're going down river, are we meeting those otters again? Just curious

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): it's paths we've crossed before.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Or is that a different direction

seyfert (Vee Barlett): we met them on the way here - you'll see when you finish story chat, lol

seyfert (Vee Barlett): ghost monkey convinced them to let us pass

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh, okay! Ghost monkey doing something nice

GM: A - go to the Orphanage->Church of the Mists->Temple of Orange Sunsets (home) which is mostly just clicking things off with one or two encounters in the mountains on the way home

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Vee just wants to say hi to her dads and maybe the merman again.

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Also Levi has competely given up on ghost monkey

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Vee's got custody now, I think

GM: or B - go back to the lake and travel along the shore or find a boat to get down to Osterhold

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Still voting B

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): I think land travel is safer - we don't have the boats or the skills to take us all safely down a steep river. imho

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Excuse you. Vee does

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Still voting ANYTHING

wyjyoon (Temperance): I liked going by land fine, and I don't mind where we're going

GM: You can go through version A then continue to Osterhold easily by land or boat to Osterhold

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): how many boats can Vee ride in at once? :)

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Where's the fun in land?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): she can build a bigger canoe probably?

GM: The key thing is you do not HAVE a boat currently

seyfert (Vee Barlett): sorry sorry, confidence: She can build a bigger canoe!

GM: you have a canoe for three peoplew

seyfert (Vee Barlett): so Rothuss gets an extra week or so of training while Vee builds a boat

GM: and love that for you Carissa

GM: BUT no

seyfert (Vee Barlett): So we buully the boat guy to give us a boat

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Ask the church for a boat. They owe us a favor now right?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): or we find fare on some passing ship that might pass by or something

GM: IF you have someone with shipbuilding, you can build a barge in one week

Vee Barlett: yo

GM: Yes to Lemon but that Church is back home

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Nah, I meant the snowman guy church orphanage whatever thing

GM: Yes to Carissa that is an option

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): will a barge go down rapids or waterfalls?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): isn't that what shipwright it?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): *is?

GM: Yes to Shipwright to build

GM: (LINK)

GM: Link to the Ships page

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): anyways, I'm not 100% on either option. I prefer land, but Roth isn't going to make a fuss if the group decides otherwise

GM: You could build a Knarr in a month

GM: Just check your pockets for the 6,000 GO

GM: GP

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): besides, then I get to say "I Told You So" a lot. " :D

wyjyoon (Temperance): From what little experience I have had I also prefer land just a bit more

seyfert (Vee Barlett): so we find people to pay passage

seyfert (Vee Barlett): I doubt we're the only ones wanting to go to the city

GM: I want to stress that this is a very real thing that I expect you to do, to build your own ships and sail the seas

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Sure, but not today

GM: Just not sure you can pull it off right this moment but you are always full of surprises

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): who, us? surprises? No!

User has gone AFK. (LemonyLemon)

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): if we do 2 canoes, do we have a pilot for each?

GM: Someone with Boating in each yes

GM: for handling rapids and such

wyjyoon (Temperance): I have a question, what's the difference between crew and passengers?

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): who works and who plays shuffleboard

GM: Crew is what is needed to be able to handle the ship

wyjyoon (Temperance): Are they counted together? Or are the crew the ones just doing the work?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh okay

GM: You can have Extra people as passengers

wyjyoon (Temperance): So it holds a total of 6 people for... let's say a barge?

GM: but you NEED x number of crew to be able to do things

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh okay, that clarifies things

GM: Yes and then Cargo/people/horses/ghost monkeys/etc

seyfert (Vee Barlett): My thought is, there are merchants up here who probably want to get to the city. So enlist them to help us build, crew the ship, pay us, whatever to get to the city.

seyfert (Vee Barlett): We all at least have swimming so not worried about that. Rapids might be harder, but who knows?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Or we can be boring and click off on land.

wyjyoon (Temperance): If we can hitch a ride by working / helping merchants I'm fine with that

GM: If you click off land I suggest you also decide to go to Osterhold directly from there

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Les hitch a rid and more convince them to help us and team up to get to river

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Okay so the only positive to that is that means Dad times is sooner :P

Vee Barlett: glares at Levi

GM: meaning if clicking, then click both things

seyfert (Vee Barlett): BUT no merman....

wyjyoon (Temperance): So... goal is to go to Osterhold to trade and see Dad, or meet merman?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): For RP purposes, I'm also fine just goign straight to Osterhold and clicking to that.

wyjyoon (Temperance): and when I say see Dad I mean see Vee's Dad

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Vee cannot yet breath underwater and she's got questions about mermans before she pursues one so it's okay too

seyfert (Vee Barlett): man hope pa and dad are both there lol

wyjyoon (Temperance): As long as everyone's okay with trying to hitch a ride, I'm fine going by water

wyjyoon (Temperance): If we can't, go by land?

GM: JTom what are you thinking?

wyjyoon (Temperance): If we can't manage to hitch a ride, I mean

GM: Especially as you are about to get called away for the night

GM: Overland? or find a barge to hitch a ride on

wyjyoon (Temperance): Brb refill : )

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Well all have their ups and downs, if we build a ship then we have free trasportation to anywhere by waters or land, if we take a ride we don't have to worry about wildlife, but it costs us, and over land doesn't cost us anything, but the wildlife is dangerous. We've seen an owlbear, those plant things, giants, who knows what else is out there willing to maul us

GM: I do not think building a ship is in the cards at the moment

GM: So going back down to the lake and then finding a way downstream

GM: roleplaying that out

GM: OR click off the travel to home then RP getting to Osterhold and such

GM: With that the plan

GM: I will not give you a different story arc to interupt that

seyfert (Vee Barlett): whatever gives us good RP.

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Well, going by land wouldn't cost us anything

seyfert (Vee Barlett): oh darn logic

GM: Do you have 250 GP ?

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): So if we want to save money then land would be our best choice

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): feet are always free, I guess. :)

seyfert (Vee Barlett): unless you're at subway

GM: LOL

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): lol

wyjyoon (Temperance): Back

GM: 250 GP and two weeks gets you a Keelboat

GM: IF you have a shipwright

GM: winks at Vee

Vee Barlett: [SKILL] Shipwright [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 10) [FAILURE by 8] [d20 = 18]

seyfert (Vee Barlett): looks away

Vee Barlett: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 3] [d20 = 12]

seyfert (Vee Barlett): okay well at lesat she can operate it

GM: So you know you will need assistance in building it,

GM: and also failure can mean extending the time needed to build it

Rothuss Carder: [SKILL] Voice Mimicry [2] [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 12]

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): How long would it take us to get there by land?

Rothuss Carder: Vee: "When in doubt, build a boat!"

seyfert (Vee Barlett): fineee let's just go by land and click off to osterholddddd

Vee Barlett: Hey that sounds like me!

GM: a week or so traveling by land I think

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): So, land is free and faster

wyjyoon (Temperance): Sounds good to me

wyjyoon (Temperance): If it's free and faster why not

GM: Ok

seyfert (Vee Barlett): fineeeeeee

GM: so now TMO and JTom are about to leave

Rothuss Carder: soon. we can stretch it a little bit if you have an encounter or two for us

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): soon. we can stretch it a little bit if you have an encounter or two for us

GM: So you can wait for them to log out then Lemon Wendy and Carissa change their minds and go build a boat

GM: I have one encounter on the downhill

GM: BUT I can also just go CLICK

seyfert (Vee Barlett): is it mermaids??

GM: and you are in the Church of the Mists and CLICK you are at the Temple of Orange Sunsets

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lemon is currently MIA

wyjyoon (Temperance): Sorry I meant afk

wyjyoon (Temperance): Same thing

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

GM: You would not want to encounter mermaids in the mountains

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): giant water-filled hamsterballs

GM: Otter guarded

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh gosh

wyjyoon (Temperance): Just them rolling downhill at you

GM: CHARGE!!!!!!!

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

GM: There is a sport-ish thing in New Zealand like that

GM: They put you in a ball like that

GM: and roll you down a hill

GM: you race other people

seyfert (Vee Barlett): zorbing

GM: Yes

wyjyoon (Temperance): Sounds like vertigo

GM: There is a reason New Zealand has a small population ;P

wyjyoon (Temperance): So... we all okay with encounter by land?

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): aye

seyfert (Vee Barlett): yeah I suppose

GM: CLICK you are at the Church of the Mists

Rothuss Carder: whooooooosh

Vee Barlett: sulks

GM: Did you want to discuss talk barter anything here?

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): Mists is the one that sent up up the to the Troubleshooters with the orphan, right? Just making sure I've got it right in my mind.

GM: ALso I was just pre-supposing you did not have things at the Orphanage

GM: Yes

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): offscreen picking up Ratbone, I guess.

GM: Mists sent you up to the Orphange on the edge of The Bowl

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): thought so, just confirming

GM: Then you start down hill again

GM: to get to the Mists

GM: then down down down to get to Temple of Sunsets

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): I found some hamsterballs! Everybody get in one!

GM: Will TMO and JTom be in next week?

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): hopefully, but not certain. we have a lot to do around here if we're going to make our proposed schedule

GM: ok

GM: JTom get your homework done and your work around the home done so you can be here

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol no pressure

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): None at all

wyjyoon (Temperance): But yes always glad to have our voice of reason here : )

GM: warm smile

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): I do what I can! :D

GM: LOL

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): lol

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol

GM: Ok you two go get out of here and get your work done

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

Master TMO (Rothuss Carder): roger

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): If I musttttt, goodnight all

GM: See you on the site and next week

GM: have a great time

'Master TMO' disconnected

seyfert (Vee Barlett): night!

wyjyoon (Temperance): Good night you two! Have fun!

'JtomTMO' disconnected

GM: So Wendy, Carissa and Lemon in absentia

wyjyoon (Temperance): Just realized that Vee is sulking about walking on land and Tempe is the only one there for her to shank

GM: Dun dun DUN

wyjyoon (Temperance): Here lies Temperance

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

GM: She was a good priestess

GM: But also to Carissa's point

GM: what is the minimum you want to get done at the Mists, the Orange Sunsets, etc

GM: You have some things that you want to sell in Osterhold

GM: and or training etc

seyfert (Vee Barlett): (sorry one sec cat)

GM: also would you like me to end the story arc at the Temple like we normally do? or end it at Osterhold ? It is more of a formality story telling thing

GM: To this point all the story arcs end at the Temple of Orange Sunsets

GM: we can do that this time also and then just travel off to Osterhold

seyfert (Vee Barlett): temple seems proper since they started us on the journey

wyjyoon (Temperance): Seems like a nice tradition to follow : )

GM: Lemon? Wendy? Thoughs? obj

GM: objections?

GM: OK

GM: so let it be written

GM: so let it be done

wyjyoon (Temperance): Also I thought we were just travelling by land to Osterhold directly, so I didn't plan anything for Church and Temple visit yet

GM: Ok so a bit more XP work to do

GM: and also now at the Temple so RP with Temp and Vee (and Levi if he wakes up) about going out to Osterhold and do you want to tell anyone

seyfert (Vee Barlett): ok sorry cat just wanted (more) food

wyjyoon (Temperance): Think I might've misunderstood the routes and stuff. The land was free and faster, so I thought it more efficient to go that way

GM: yes and no, Yes faster, more encounters for the road through known territory, the lake/river/Osterhold is more adventurous and new

seyfert (Vee Barlett): you understood right, we just have pitstops on the way we can take advantage of if we wanted

GM: BUT you never knew before about The Bowl and now you do

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh gotcha, okay. Thanks for clearing that up : )

wyjyoon (Temperance): Who was the Priestess that sent us to the Mists? Michel something?

wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't remember

GM: and now you can go explore The Bowl and find the villages there that create trade etc

seyfert (Vee Barlett): She sent Jericho yes to pay back his loans

seyfert (Vee Barlett): for him to get stuff for stuffy Pancho or whatever his name is who is really in charge

GM: See he does not show up for months and STILL Michael is causing problems. :)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Somehow I feel as though Michael did not want this kind of legacy

GM: warm chuckle

Vee Barlett: Alright, we gotta sneak off because Jericho comes back from wherever they sent him this time because I ain't wantin' to deal with his shit again anytime soon.

Vee Barlett: *before

[500 XP] -> Vee Barlett

Temperance: laughs lightly.

[350 XP] -> MeLange

[500 XP] -> Temperance

[500 XP] -> Lirtimya

Temperance: So I take it you do not want to tell the er... Prieestess that we are leaving?

[500 XP] -> Rothuss Carder

[500 XP] -> Levi Reed

Vee Barlett: Y'all didn't let me go on land and I had to say bye to a great girl so I need somethin' to cheer me up. AND I didn't get my second date yet with a merman. How lame.

Vee Barlett: Why?

Vee Barlett: Jericho completed his task. They know we alive. What else they want?

Temperance: Nothing. I'm alright with... "sneaking off", as you say.

[1000 XP] -> Vee Barlett

Vee Barlett: I ain't part of this Temple and plan to keep it this way. We got our hellos now let's go.

Vee Barlett: Unless you got priestly things to do. Then do them quick.

Vee Barlett: still grouchy

Temperance: To cheer you up for your... er, heart?

Temperance: No priestly things to do. At least I don't believe so.

'Levi Reed' applied '1500' experience to Ranger.

Temperance: smiles indulgently at Vee's grouchiness.

Vee Barlett: Good. I gotta say hi to my dads again.

Temperance: Wouldn't want to keep them waiting. Family is important.

GM: Levi needs 800 more XP to level up

'MeLange' applied '1485' experience to Fighter.

Vee Barlett: So is my empty pocket and ringless finger.

GM: Mel needs 400 more XP to level up

'Rothuss Carder' applied '1500' experience to Bard.

Temperance: I have a feeling you will soon gain both.

GM: Rothuss needs 5,000 more to level up

Temperance: Though I'm not sure where the feeling comes from.

'Temperance' applied '1650' experience to Cleric.

Vee Barlett: As long as it's a magic ring and not some dipshit tryin' to propose to me.

GM: Temperance needs 5,000 more XP to level up

Temperance: I think you would sooner shank them first if they try.

'Vee Barlett' applied '1500' experience to Ranger.

Vee Barlett: Gut feelin'? You ain't a fortune tellin' priest, right?

Vee Barlett: nods

Temperance: Not that I'm aware of, no.

Vee Barlett: I did sharpen my knives comin' back.

'Lirtimya' applied '1500' experience to Sea Wizard.

Vee Barlett: Good. Or I'd be mad ya didn't tell me earlier.

GM: Lirt needs 9,000 XP to level up

Temperance: laughs lightly.

'Vee Barlett' gained level 5 in Ranger. Gained 2 additional HP.

One level of class 'Ranger' added to 'Vee Barlett'.

___ COMPLETED Ranger to level 5 ___

Temperance: If I knew you were going to get what you wanted I would tell you. No use keeping that to myself.

Vee Barlett: Nah, I already know I get what I want. But I like hearin' what the future could also get me that I ain't considered, ya know?

GM: Vee leveled up and now needs 18,000 to level up again

seyfert (Vee Barlett): woooo!

wyjyoon (Temperance): Yay! : )

GM: She gained 2 HP, I am guessing you want to re-roll that

seyfert (Vee Barlett): better saves so she can risk mermans again!

Vee Barlett: [d10 = 5]

Vee Barlett: man it was almost a 7

seyfert (Vee Barlett): but that's better than 2

wyjyoon (Temperance): Definitely

seyfert (Vee Barlett): irony that last time it rolled a 5 and I rolled a 2.... guess it did even out, lol

GM: warm smile

Vee Barlett: So whatcha think about that lake, Tempe?

GM: No new Proficiency slots fo rher

seyfert (Vee Barlett): actually no, I'm bad at math, if I'd rolled a 7 it would have evened out

seyfert (Vee Barlett): ...8

seyfert (Vee Barlett): I give up math bad

Temperance: Ah, the wreck and the rock island, you mean?

Vee Barlett: I dunno. Just... fresh water? It nice, but it ain't the sea.

Temperance: I think the open sea is a tad bit more interesting than the lake. Though the giants helping us was intriguing.

Temperance: I didn't get to see much in the lake besides the urchins.

Vee Barlett: Yeah, too bad ya didn't go underwater. Bet there's lots to see there.

Vee Barlett: Maybe I shoulda followed the merman.

GM: Speaking of which are you leaving anything here in the Temple for banking for future favors?

GM: Or keeping to pay for what ever you want?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): wut

GM: and welcome back Lemon

wyjyoon (Temperance): So we trade stuff to the Temple and we get favors?

wyjyoon (Temperance): *some stuff?

GM: You have STUFF now, you can turn some of it into the Temple and they owe you a favor etc

wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes

GM: OR you just keep it and use it as you wish

seyfert (Vee Barlett): I like option 2

GM: Ink for example

seyfert (Vee Barlett): but Tempe might benefit from option 1

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh we got ink?

GM: Plus you have a home to store things in

seyfert (Vee Barlett): that's the tavern

GM: No need to carry everything with you

GM: Yes

GM: Tavern, Home, hard to tell the difference

GM: Quote

wyjyoon (Temperance): I guess since Tempe is a priestess she would benefit from favors from the Temple

seyfert (Vee Barlett): no, making sure you weren't suggesting the TEMPLE was home :OP

wyjyoon (Temperance): Everyone is so annoyed with churchy people messing things up and complicating things that I forget I also play a churchy character lol

seyfert (Vee Barlett): she can talk to Hilde before we leave and butter her up if you want

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol right?

Image: Seven Sirens

'Shislif' connected

seyfert (Vee Barlett): which is why Vee is fine if they owe them, but she's not keen on it yet

seyfert (Vee Barlett): (they're at the temple or tavern?)

[ROUND 2]

wyjyoon (Temperance): I dunno how much she'll do in terms of buttering up considering her low charisma, but she can definitely try to have a chat to see what'll come of it!

seyfert (Vee Barlett): thought we were at the temple so go for it

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): When do we get to find one of those Mary Poppins bags?

[TURN] Levi Reed - [Torch; LIGHT: 10/15 torch; Torch; [D: 30]]

GM: Hello Sharif

Shislif: hi everyone

wyjyoon (Temperance): I do want one of those

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Hi Sharif!

wyjyoon (Temperance): Hey Sharif : )

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Hello!

wyjyoon (Temperance): Those infinite bags of holding

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Also, I'm sorry if I keep disappearing. I had an allergic reaction to a fire ant bite and then it maybe got infected, and the antibiotics they gave me are... rough on the stomach.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh shoot, was that the thing about the bug bite they told me about at work?

Shislif (MeLange): ouch! Maybe try a water ant?

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): yep

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol water ant

Shislif (MeLange): :)

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Water ant does sound more appealing

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): But also... don't give BOB idas

Shislif (MeLange): Hope you feel better Lemon!

wyjyoon (Temperance): Yeah, hope it goes away and stops bothering you : )

GM: grins

Shislif (MeLange): probably what the fire ant thought too lol

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): The bite is fine now. Now it's the meds that are bothering me lol

GM: So Sharif you are back at the Seven Sirens Tavern

Shislif (MeLange): sweet

seyfert (Vee Barlett): (ok so nevermind, we weren't at the temple)

GM: On the beach

wyjyoon (Temperance): (issok, there's always a next time!)

GM: No to Carissa, you can still finish up anything at the Temple

Shislif (MeLange): nice, bar on the beach

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): ooooh, swim up bar?

GM: you can do what you want up there, then come down here it is only an hour or two

Shislif (MeLange): is the tavern full? empty? Do they serve food? Is there music?

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): "are there any girls there?"

GM: LOL you started this whole Island Kingdoms Era here at this bar!

Shislif (MeLange): gotta keep Mel busy :)

wyjyoon (Temperance): I thought that was Levi's job

Shislif (MeLange): oh ok same bar lol sorry forgot

GM: laughs

wyjyoon (Temperance): : P

Shislif (MeLange): but still is it busy?

Shislif (MeLange): looks empty on the image

GM: For the most part yes

Shislif (MeLange): kewl

GM: I deleted all the NPC tokens previously

GM: to make it cleaner

wyjyoon (Temperance): (also if we're already down at the Seven Seas I'm fine with staying, don't wanna go back up to the Temple)

Shislif (MeLange): also kewl

GM: and for you to see you have potential rooms to stay in not in the Temple etc

Shislif (MeLange): Seas or Sirens?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Seven Sirens, my bad

GM: the next stop is Levi talking to his sisters and borrowing a boat to go to Osterhold

Shislif (MeLange): all good

GM: brb restroom

Shislif (MeLange): What's in Osterhold?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Everyone meeting family on these trips

wyjyoon (Temperance): Um, Vee's dad and pa, and a big city to sell stuff?

wyjyoon (Temperance): I think?

Shislif (MeLange): Oh I thought maybe Levi had a reason to go there

wyjyoon (Temperance): Osterhold's a big city from what I heard

Shislif (MeLange): kewl

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): I'm sorry he's talking to who?

Vee Barlett: So Temple isn't a big deal if Tempe wants to suck up to them, but up to you. Then we meet Levi's family. Then we see Pa and Dad.

seyfert (Vee Barlett): ooc

Shislif (MeLange): his sister?

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): It was a rhetorical question

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Levi is not happy

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lmao

MeLange: oh my bad

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): About this turn of events

seyfert (Vee Barlett): I look forward to it

Shislif (MeLange): ooc

seyfert (Vee Barlett): This is the RP I want

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol

seyfert (Vee Barlett): if we can't have water adventure, someone else's family drama it is!

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Yes, Carissa loves it when people give me a hard time, whether it's the real me or a character :P

seyfert (Vee Barlett): followed by best family (vee's family)

Temperance: I'm sure the Temple will be around for pretty words and chit-chat.

seyfert (Vee Barlett): :D

Vee Barlett: They ain't goin' nowhere. Bet they cookin' up another favor to ask us later anyways.

Temperance: I'm not sure if it necessarily needs to be an interaction now, yes.

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Next time I make a character, it's going to be all like "ohhh, the family is all super nice and they love each other and there's never any drama! best family ever!"

wyjyoon (Temperance): Wow, sign me up

Shislif (MeLange): Yea I'd go for that afer Mel's run lol

wyjyoon (Temperance): If I have a next time to make a character then it'll be a chaotic ball of sunshine who knows absolutely nothing

wyjyoon (Temperance): : D

Shislif (MeLange): lol

GM: b

Temperance: glances around the tavern idly.

GM: Lemon wants this to be a Fantasy Game

wyjyoon (Temperance): But isn't it?

Levi Reed: Vee, where's your sister? She can get us a boat, right?

GM: grins

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Vee's family is all that! But also some drama, but like, mafia drama so it's fine!

Shislif (MeLange): are they speaking in the Tavern now?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol Mafia drama

Vee Barlett: Gloria? I dunno. Maybe she off today? Why would she have a boat?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): (yes to sharif)

Shislif (MeLange): or different location?

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): That's a fantastic out of context quote

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lmao

Levi Reed: I didn't say she HAD one, I said she could GET us one

Levi Reed: She must know people

Vee Barlett: That be you, buddy.

Shislif (MeLange): thx

Levi Reed: She's related to you, after all

GM: So my plan is for you to get to Osterhold tonight when when we finish, then next week interactions with Pa and Dad, fun Vee things, Levi things, then the set up for the next story arc (two weeks off) then you start on the story arc

Levi Reed: I don't have a boat

Vee Barlett: Yer family got plenty.

Levi Reed: Working boats

Levi Reed: That they use for working

Shislif (MeLange): sounds good

Vee Barlett: Stop bein' a wuss and let's get a boat from them.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Fine by me : )

Vee Barlett: Introduce Mel to them, too. He ain't met them yet.

Vee Barlett: And that ain't fair to him.

Levi Reed: Wait wait wait

Levi Reed: We agreed this wasn't anything serious

MeLange: not fair to me?

Vee Barlett: Nope. Let's go.

MeLange: seems unfair

Levi Reed: Way too soon to meet the family

Temperance: Well, if they're going to use it for working, then they might not be willing to hand it over so easily.

Vee Barlett: He can just meet them as a friend.

Levi Reed: Exactly. They're busy doing work

Vee Barlett: Ya don't know 'til ya ask.

Vee Barlett: And if I gotta ask without ya, well, gonna be worse for ya.

MeLange: Hey, why not?

Levi Reed: Just because my dad is half retired and has a boat that was supposed to be mine lying around, doesn't mean I can just TAKE it

Vee Barlett: rolls eyes

MeLange: You could try asking him?

MeLange: maybe?

Vee Barlett: You can take anythin' ya want if ya don't get caught. Duh.

Levi Reed: You steal from your dads?

GM: Have you met Vee?

Vee Barlett: Were ya think I got them good cigerellos?

MeLange: Some things you do, make you a certain type of person

Vee Barlett: Dad's got good taste. He ain't gonna miss a few.

Temperance: smiles indulgently at the direction of the conversation, getting accustomed to it.

Levi Reed: I guarantee he knows you took them

Levi Reed: If he didn't want you to have them, they wouldn't have been where you could find them

Vee Barlett: Maybe he do, maybe he don't but I still got them and that's what matters in the end.

Levi Reed: Ok, but you can't just take a boat from them

Vee Barlett: By that logic, I shouldn't be allowed in the house.

Levi Reed: Or else you'd already have it

Vee Barlett: 'Cause everythin' in there fair game.

Vee Barlett: 'Course I haven't! I gotta have SOME respect fer yer family. I like them.

Levi Reed: mutters something about "second house" that no one quite catches the full sentence of

seyfert (Vee Barlett): (there is some major lag on my end)

Levi Reed: I meant you couldn't take a boat from YOUR family

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): (also lag here)

wyjyoon (Temperance): (lag everywhereeee)

Vee Barlett: Why would I?

GM: Not sure why the lag

Shislif (MeLange): yea i been laggin, I press enter n it shows up a few seconds later

Shislif (MeLange): this time was better though

Vee Barlett: I need a boat from YOUR family to visit MY family.

wyjyoon (Temperance): The Void is just letting us know that it's there

Shislif (MeLange): but that time was like 4 or 5 secons

Levi Reed: Why wouldn't you? You've talked about nothing but that one boat they have that you want since the day I met you

Levi Reed: MeL, talk some sense into her!

Vee Barlett: This why I'm the brains here. Ain't smart to just take that one.

MeLange: You know, I've come to figure out that Vee really likes boats

Vee Barlett: grins at Mel

Vee Barlett: And Ships. 'specially ships.

Vee Barlett: But we gotta get to Osterhold and it easiest over water so we need to get a boat from Levi's family.

Levi Reed: grumbles about it all being the same, floaty thing on water is a floaty thing on water

MeLange: so she doesn't want to steal her own boat but instead steal your boat Levi? ]

Vee Barlett: His mom makes good food, Mel. You'd like her.

Levi Reed: Ok but DO we need to get to Osterhold?

Levi Reed: Yeah, pretty much Mel

Vee Barlett: Yeah. We got goods to offload.

MeLange: What if we just asked your parents for the boat? Maybe they need a favor or somethng we could do?

Vee Barlett: Ya ain't allowed to flirt with him, but Dad might be home this time.

MeLange: I'm sure they're reasonable people

Vee Barlett: casually picks her nails with a knife

Levi Reed: I'll offload your... look. Dad might be fine with it, but Lila's basically running the show now, there's no chance she's just going to agree to that

Vee Barlett: His family fine. Just his own father a bit... uptight. But the rest great.

Vee Barlett: Only one way to find out.

Vee Barlett: So. Again. LET'S GO.

MeLange: Well ya never know till ya try Levi

Levi Reed: Vee might have to seduce her

Vee Barlett: Huh? I thought she was more into Mel's type.

Levi Reed: Honestly, I have no idea

MeLange: We could both seduce her

Levi Reed: Yes!

Levi Reed: Yes, do that!

Vee Barlett: rolls eyes

MeLange: But Levi you can't watch

Vee Barlett: Levi just wants drama on others.

Levi Reed: EW

Levi Reed: that's my sister, man

Vee Barlett: I hope she beat him up.

MeLange: I know that's why I said you can't watch

Levi Reed: Lila's never brought anyone home. She might not be interested in either of you for all I know

Levi Reed: I DO know that she likes Vee way more than she likes me

Vee Barlett: That's fine, too. Maybe she just wants us to beat you up before she let's us borrow a boat.

MeLange: Sounds like she could use a big brother worth looking up to

Vee Barlett: Lila cool. We bicker, but she holds her own. I like that.

Levi Reed: I'm the youngest

Vee Barlett: Explains so much.

Levi Reed: If she's got a big brother, I've never met him

MeLange: why she needs a big brother

MeLange: All she's had has beena lil Levi

Levi Reed: Are you offering?

Levi Reed: Because good luck with taht shit show

MeLange: for while we're there and until we leave? sure

Vee Barlett: This sounds better and better....

Vee Barlett: Maybe we outta stay the night when we get there.

Temperance: That family tree sounds like it's getting more complicated.

MeLange: it does

MeLange: Sounds like fun though

Vee Barlett: So we goin'?

MeLange: all the layers and relationships

Levi Reed: I got no problems asking Dad. He's been dying for me to show an interest in the family boats. But Vee... you gotta be the one who gets Lila on board

Levi Reed: Not literallyu

Levi Reed: Oh god

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Sure. She might not even be home.

Vee Barlett: Oh! Good idea!

Levi Reed: Please don't let her come with us

MeLange: But if Dad gives the ok, he's still like the patriarch, she should still agree to his wishes... no?

Vee Barlett: She ain't allowed to visit my house, but you could keep her company in the city.

Levi Reed: I mean, you'd think that

Levi Reed: But she's the princess

Vee Barlett: Wait. And that keeps you away from my dads.... man, yeah, let's see if Lila wants to come!

Temperance: It's more so who's willing to push and who's willing to bend.

Temperance: If he bends to her will, then she gets to push as far as she pleases.

Joycelyn Pemberton: Walks into the tavern and looks around

MeLange: Princess still gotta answer to the king, if no one else

Vee Barlett: Offft, says who?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): *pfft

Levi Reed: Not when the king is old and mad at the prince

Joycelyn Pemberton: Spots Temperance and Vee over in the corner

Joycelyn Pemberton: Walks over

MeLange: Just gonna have to man up son!

Joycelyn Pemberton: How are you Ladies doing this evening?

MeLange: pumps his chest

Levi Reed: I did! That's why dad doesn't like me anymore!

MeLange: you know some of that!

Vee Barlett: Huh? Who you?

Temperance: turns towards the new voice.

MeLange: He don't have to like you, but he should RESPECT you

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): The name seems familiar, but maybe deja vu?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): looked it up - friend of Hyacinth

seyfert (Vee Barlett): but don't think we ever met her? if it's the same one

Shislif (MeLange): so fast

wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't think I was here for that?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): like lemon I also thought it seemed familiar, lol

Joycelyn Pemberton: Smiles

Shislif (MeLange): brb refill

Joycelyn Pemberton: You are Vee Barlett, at least that is your current name

Levi Reed: crosses fingers that this new rando is here to offer a boat

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol Levi

Vee Barlett: Mkay. Congrats for knowin' that, I guess?

Joycelyn Pemberton: You are Temperance, we sent you out on missions together

Vee Barlett: Ugh, the Temple? Again??

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Why would she know Temperance?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): investigators know too muchhhh

Temperance: furrows her brows.

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): I miss Invisible Zora Polasis

seyfert (Vee Barlett): same lol

seyfert (Vee Barlett): wish she'd uninvisible herself

Temperance: Missions, was it? I suppose, though I don't quite remember if we ever got acquainted.

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Didn't Temperance come from a totally different temple than Hyacinth?

Joycelyn Pemberton: You do not need to know me to know you do the Temple's missions and you have done well so far

GM: Yes Temperance is from the Cathedral in Osterhold

Vee Barlett: takes a sip of her drink to hide her rolling eyes

wyjyoon (Temperance): She is? I didn't even know

seyfert (Vee Barlett): oh it was decided? I thought she was adrift without a church decided, lol

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): I thought we picked her up on Mizzen?

GM: Joycelyn is the person at the Temple of Orange Sunsets that handles security

GM: Yes you did

GM: Temp was on Mizzen

GM: Dun dun DUN

GM: and now you have an investigator .......

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): WAS TEMPERANCE SENT TO INFILTRATE US?????

GM: grins

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): TRAITOR!

seyfert (Vee Barlett): LOL

wyjyoon (Temperance): WHAT??

GM: so deep undercover she did not even know ;P

Shislif (MeLange): back

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): lol

wyjyoon (Temperance): Somehow unaware of this lol

seyfert (Vee Barlett): she's so good at it she didn't even know she wasdoing it!!

wyjyoon (Temperance): Wow this is a bigger plot addition than I assumed it was going to be

Levi Reed: Who's this, Tempe?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

Joycelyn Pemberton: I am Joyceleyn Pemberton, one of the security people for the Temple

Levi Reed: narrows eyes suspiciously

Levi Reed: And what do you want from us?

Joycelyn Pemberton: and Vee and Temperance are two of our rising operatives

Vee Barlett: Fuck you? Says who?

Joycelyn Pemberton: They have done good work for us

Joycelyn Pemberton: No one said you were grateful or happy to do it

Joycelyn Pemberton: But you have been well paid

Vee Barlett: snorts

Vee Barlett: No one better say I be willin' either

Temperance: Would've been a tricky endeavor for you to get her to engage willingly, for certain.

Joycelyn Pemberton: What I am concerned with is are you healed, are you ready to stay at home and relax for weeks and months? doing nothing here in this tavern?

Levi Reed: Yes, go away

Vee Barlett: Ain't none of yer business.

Joycelyn Pemberton: I have business for you

Vee Barlett: Fuckin' of course ya do.

Temperance: looks a bit hesitant and guarded.

Joycelyn Pemberton: She hands over a small flat box

Vee Barlett: takes a drink and looks at Tempe to take it

Joycelyn Pemberton: There is a key inside of there

Levi Reed: Don't touch it!

Temperance: reaches for the box and freezes.

Levi Reed: No one giver he any sign that we're willing to do this!

seyfert (Vee Barlett): LOL

Temperance: mumbles something about "Pandora's box"

Joycelyn Pemberton: That key will open up a treasure chest

Vee Barlett: Temple got a tight lease on their priest. Ain't sure Tempe has a choice.

Vee Barlett: Huh... Tempe. Temple... what a misfortunate name there.

Joycelyn Pemberton: Thehe Duke of Mizzen left that with the church

Levi Reed: I'm just so tired of doing their dirty work for them

Vee Barlett: Mkay and?

Joycelyn Pemberton: And now he is in trouble

Temperance: looks a bit hesitant, her hand hovering midway towards the box.

Joycelyn Pemberton: That key is your surity to prove you are who you say you are

Joycelyn Pemberton: When you go do a favor for him

Vee Barlett: What kind of trouble and why can't the church handle it themself?

Joycelyn Pemberton: If you prefer I keep the box and go do this, then I will get the rewards

Vee Barlett: Who sent ya?

Joycelyn Pemberton: Pescal thought you would like a chance at this

Vee Barlett: Why?

Levi Reed: gives up on the conversation and downs a beer

Temperance: Rewards, financial gain, perhaps?

Joycelyn Pemberton: Because they want you to learn and grow more than they want me to

Vee Barlett: Why?

Levi Reed: Because we're easier to take advantage of

Vee Barlett: At least Hilde I can kinda understand, but not Pescal.

MeLange: good to learn and grow

wyjyoon (Temperance): Dang, it's tricky being a lawful priest round here lol

Joycelyn Pemberton: Because if I do manage to pull off this favor for the Duke then I will have that influence and I know the levers to pull with that influence to do things

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol someone has to round us up

Joycelyn Pemberton: You on the other hand can accomplish things and be more greedy and self centered

Vee Barlett: laughs

Joycelyn Pemberton: and not worry about what other powers you could use it for

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Also, Temperance should know better than to listen to anything Levi says lol

Vee Barlett: You don't make a good argument here, tho.

Vee Barlett: If Pescal and the Temple know that, why let a greedy person like me have that power?

Joycelyn Pemberton: I would prefer for you to openly honestly tell me no

Joycelyn Pemberton: So I can go back and say I tried

Joycelyn Pemberton: then I can go do this myself

Vee Barlett: Nah, I'd rather take the key and leave if up in the unknown.

Vee Barlett: Maybe we do it, maybe we don't but then no one does.

Temperance: Doesn't taking it mean we're obligated to this sort of task?

Vee Barlett: But if we did, church givin' us a ship for it this time?

Joycelyn Pemberton: Holding the box out

Joycelyn Pemberton: I have nothing but a key to offer you

Vee Barlett: Says who? We ain't signin' no legal document.

Temperance: exhales softly and reaches out, taking it.

Joycelyn Pemberton: and there is a letter at the Cathedral in Osterhold

Levi Reed: heads up to the bar to get another drink

Joycelyn Pemberton: that goes with this

Levi Reed: Gotta drink the Faith away, you know?

Joycelyn Pemberton: the bastards there did not let us have it

Vee Barlett: Grab me a bottle, Lev!

Vee Barlett: And why is that?

Temperance: I see. The Cathedral from Osterhold, was it?

Joycelyn Pemberton: Gives Temperance the box, a sigh of regret

Levi Reed: Get your own!

Joycelyn Pemberton: Because they do not like me

Vee Barlett: Cathedral don't wanna help the Temple? We the mediator?

Levi Reed: Making deals with the church again

Vee Barlett: Eh, they don't like anyone. Not tryin' to cheer you up, just statin' facts.

Vee Barlett: So what trouble is Duke in?

Vee Barlett: Ya didn't answer that.

Joycelyn Pemberton: I do not know

Joycelyn Pemberton: I have not seen the letter

Vee Barlett: Well least this forces Levi to need to get us to Osterhold.

Joycelyn Pemberton: We had that key from the Duke for a previous favor we did

Vee Barlett: So what he say that ya need it now?

Levi Reed: Very convoluted story

Temperance: What was this previous favor?

Joycelyn Pemberton: That Key plus the letter at Osterhold will let you know what he needs and how to help

Vee Barlett: Just told Cathedral he needs help so they told you?

Joycelyn Pemberton: He told us he sent the letter

Joycelyn Pemberton: the Cathedral did not tell us

Vee Barlett: Y'all got some weird politics.

Joycelyn Pemberton: But the Duke knows that the Key is the surity to prove it is him

Vee Barlett: Where's the chest this key opens?

Joycelyn Pemberton: That stupid bitch deserves to be held over hot coals until she give up her...

Joycelyn Pemberton: Yes

Joycelyn Pemberton: I agree

Vee Barlett: snorts

Joycelyn Pemberton: The Cathedral has too much power

Vee Barlett: If Jericho were around, he'd agree.

Vee Barlett: But keep him busy. He bad luck and ain't sure I'm ready for him to come back yet.

Temperance: observes Joycelyn with a raised brow.

Levi Reed: noticably warms up to Joycelyn a bit

Joycelyn Pemberton: He is working the southern precinct

Vee Barlett: Good. I'll avoid that area.

Levi Reed: I've heard it's real hot there these days

Joycelyn Pemberton: Now that I have given you the key my job is over

Levi Reed: MUST BE NICE

Joycelyn Pemberton: BARTENDER RUM LOTS

Vee Barlett: Enjoy yer drink.

Joycelyn Pemberton: She takes the bottle and drinks directly from it

Temperance: exhales softly again, massaging her temples at the whole Temple and Cathedral situation.

Joycelyn Pemberton: So what are you going to do?

Vee Barlett: I ain't decided yet now have I?

Vee Barlett: I got business in the city anyways so maybe see what that letter says, but ain't promisin' nothin'

Joycelyn Pemberton: Dman it I wish I was going, sailing a bit, Mizzen has some amazing food

Vee Barlett: Levi a fan of that church there.

Joycelyn Pemberton: Hic

Joycelyn Pemberton: DRINKS

Vee Barlett: Mel can go visit the library if we go to Mizzen again.

MeLange: Oh that sounds nice

Vee Barlett: I gotta sharpen my knives again if we end up there....

Temperance: The library does sound nice, I agree.

MeLange: We could go there and ask questions

Vee Barlett: See Lev? You can go on a date with Mel. Visit the church, visit the library, eat good food and stuff.

Levi Reed: gross

Joycelyn Pemberton: I bet you are going to have a grand old time

Vee Barlett: Get ourselves back on the sea.

Vee Barlett: sighs longingly

Levi Reed: I have a better idea

Vee Barlett: You been to Mizzen before Joycelyn?

Levi Reed: We go back in the caves

MeLange: Hey Vee, whatever does or doesn't happen, I think it best if it happened naturally, like on its own, like without you nudging all the time? With all respect

Joycelyn Pemberton: It is wonderful

MeLange: please don't shank me

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): lol

Vee Barlett: Huh? I ain't pushin' nothing. Except Levi. To get us a boat. And if it means usin' you, well, sorry but not sorry.

Levi Reed: She literally doesn't know she's doing it, man

Vee Barlett: Doin' what?

MeLange: So focused on that boat!

Vee Barlett: Boat and sharp knives.

Levi Reed: You know what they say. Boats are a girl's best friend

Vee Barlett: Hey Joycelyn. You into ladies?

Joycelyn Pemberton: Boats are a way to get there

MeLange: aight, I'm willin to do what I can to help get a boat, you just lemme know Vee

Joycelyn Pemberton: Boats are just fancy ways to travel

Levi Reed: Everybody's a traitor tonight

Vee Barlett: Boats are necessary, ships are magestic.

MeLange: Or a ship

Levi Reed: Y'all remember this when you're complaining about whatever church politics we're about to get ourselves in the middle of

MeLange: Does every ship start out as a boat?

MeLange: Obviously not, but cool to think about

Joycelyn Pemberton: Do boats grow into ships?

Vee Barlett: I... huh.... I dunno?

Vee Barlett: looks at her nearly empty bottle of rum and frowns

Joycelyn Pemberton: Hands over her bottle

Vee Barlett: Didn't expect to be philosophical drunk already....

Temperance: I don't believe boats are capable of growing, unless you remodel it into one.

Vee Barlett: takes the bottles and takes a drink

MeLange: peice by peice?

Joycelyn Pemberton: There is an old story about that in the church

Joycelyn Pemberton: the Ship of Thesis

Levi Reed: Look let us have a break from the stories please

MeLange: Thesis?

Joycelyn Pemberton: If you replace each piece of a boat

Levi Reed: We got lucky with Rothuss going to bed early

Vee Barlett: Nah I wanna hear this one.

Joycelyn Pemberton: Does that mean you have a new boat? or the same boat?

Vee Barlett: It bout ships.

MeLange: can't start a story n not finish

Vee Barlett: Oh, it a life lesson? BNevermind. I hate those stories.

Joycelyn Pemberton: The idea of Thesis

MeLange laughs with Vee

Levi Reed: grumbles "That's not even a story"

Joycelyn Pemberton: So tell me Levi

Shislif (MeLange): lol

Joycelyn Pemberton: Is it the same ship?

Vee Barlett: Ya, Lev. Is it??

MeLange: Yea Levi? is it?

wyjyoon (Temperance): (Levi just stands and walks away lol)

Shislif (MeLange): lol

Levi Reed: Who cares, I don't want to get on it either way

Vee Barlett: looks at him and grins

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

MeLange: smiles at Vee

Joycelyn Pemberton: All the physical pieces that make is a ship are different

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): "Who wants to go to town with a guy who drives a rowboat anyway?"

Levi Reed: You gotta ask Vee this one

Joycelyn Pemberton: but Vee, the things that make is a SHIP are still there

Levi Reed: Because now you're talking ship souls and stuff

Vee Barlett: If it sails like a ship, it a ship.

Joycelyn Pemberton: So the Ship of Thesis, is is still the same ship?

Vee Barlett: Old boat, new trim.

MeLange: Oh man, this is getting my brain off...

Levi Reed: I turned mine off HOURS ago

Joycelyn Pemberton: Laughs with Levi

Temperance: It's as if you're saying you take a person and change every physical aspect about them and asking if they are still the same person.

Vee Barlett: There be two types of drunk: philosophical and rowdy. 'Pparently this be philosophic.

Vee Barlett: looks at Tempe

MeLange: ohhhh but it's good, like what makes us us? Am I still the same person I was as a baby? A Kid?

Joycelyn Pemberton: Yes Temperance

Vee Barlett: mutters, "'Course you'd like this kinda brain twister."

Joycelyn Pemberton: and see Mel has insights too

Levi Reed: The answer can be yes and no at the same time

Joycelyn Pemberton: Takes a drink

Levi Reed: But again... I don't care about the boat

MeLange: massages his temples

Joycelyn Pemberton: That is where the idea of Thesis came from afterall

Joycelyn Pemberton: Being both right and wrong

Levi Reed: All I want to do is drink and pass out and not have to see my sister

Joycelyn Pemberton: What is wrong with your Sister? is she ill?

Vee Barlett: We gonna see her and not soon enough.

Levi Reed: I should at least get to do 2 out of the 3 things

Levi Reed: She's fine, she just hates me for no reason

MeLange: I always thought if I'd had a sister, or have a sister who knows, that we'd get along, but I guess that's not always the way is it?

Temperance: No one's stopping you from drinking and passing out. There are drinks.

Temperance: And you have a place to sleep.

Levi Reed: I'm working on it!!!

Joycelyn Pemberton: You have Temperance here to see your sister with you to comfort her and you

MeLange: Why does she hate you Levi? Too handsome?

Temperance: I don't believe I'd do well with comforting, but I'll try.

Temperance: I've been told I come off too...mechanical.

Vee Barlett: 'Cause he's a wuss

Joycelyn Pemberton: Should I have investigated Levi? is he actually important?

Levi Reed: Because my dad wants me to take over the family business, because I'm the man. But she's the oldest, so she thinks it's her right

wyjyoon (Temperance): "Is he actually important?"

Levi Reed: Nevermind that I told her she could have it

Vee Barlett: snorts

MeLange: Oh yea she's got a good point there

Levi Reed: I don't WANT it

Vee Barlett: Levi? Important how?

MeLange: So why can't she have it?

Levi Reed: I can't control what stupid ideas my dad has about how to pass down the family business

MeLange: seems like she runnin it already n you don't want it

Levi Reed: I KNOW!

Joycelyn Pemberton: Men suck

Levi Reed: So there's no reason for her to hate me!

Levi Reed: But she does anyway!

Temperance: Traditions can be suffocating.

Vee Barlett: Cheers to that!

MeLange: Alright just tell her that you guys just treadin water until your dad dies, all due respect

MeLange: fake it till you make it

Temperance: And misdirected anger equally so.

MeLange: Seems like it shouldn't be much longer

MeLange: if he's old and crazy I mean

MeLange: not that Vee would shank him

Joycelyn Pemberton: Vee would shank him

MeLange: I mean she could yea

Joycelyn Pemberton: that is why we hire her

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Lila's been bitter ever since Levi was born, because before that, it WAS going to be hers. But then a boy happened and Dad is still holding out hope that Levi will change his mind and take it over.

Vee Barlett: You hire me? Pffft.

Vee Barlett: Bribe me.

Levi Reed: I mean, I make jokes about him being old, but he's not that old

Shislif (MeLange): yea take it over then give it to her duh

Shislif (MeLange): clearly the only smart solution

seyfert (Vee Barlett): this is why mel needs to meet the family!

Shislif (MeLange): lol, looking forward to next week then!

Vee Barlett: I'd offer to take care of him but... eh, I like yer father. He nice to me.

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Man, then his dad would really be pissed lol

Levi Reed: Hey!

Levi Reed: You leave my dad alone!

Vee Barlett: Yeah, sure. When ya leave mine alone.

Levi Reed: You hurt my dad and I swear I'll sleep with Troy

Temperance: opens her notebook on top of the flat key box and writes, "Families are complicated..."

Vee Barlett: Fuck you. I'll cut all yer parts off if ya even try.

MeLange: See you still love your Dad and don't want him murdered, that's sweet Lev

Levi Reed: Of course I still love my dad

Levi Reed: Lila's the problem man

Levi Reed: I mean, I still don't want her murdered

Vee Barlett: And I said I wouldn't murder him then ya try to threaten me?

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Omg, side note. One of the kids at school today was painting a mermaid, and then just randomly said "I like to murder mermaids."

MeLange: You could try showing her lover her Lev? Like a gift? Like a really great gift something she's always wanted but like never knew? You know?

Vee Barlett: Better be wearin' a codpiece to bed next few nights, buddy. Just in case.

Shislif (MeLange): oh my

wyjyoon (Temperance): Geez, that was a fast jump

MeLange: love, not lover

Levi Reed: Uhhhh, and what would that be?

GM: WOW Lemon

wyjyoon (Temperance): From 0 to 100 real quick

seyfert (Vee Barlett): Levi takes murder of his dad seriously, Vee takes threats of sleeping with her dad seriously, lol

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): lol, yep. They know how to hit each other where it hurts

GM: and also LOVE Temp's writing notes

Shislif (MeLange): lol that was a typo my bad

seyfert (Vee Barlett): wait two 0 to 100 here lol

Vee Barlett: Are ya askin' what love is, Lev??

MeLange: So yea that's a good next question? Who know Lila good enough that would know the ultimate gift for her?

Levi Reed: I mean, maybe, but not right now

Vee Barlett: Man, I thought ya didn't know but said to here ya admit it.

Levi Reed: Asking about the gift

Vee Barlett: *sad

Vee Barlett: Levi's death might be a good gift.

Levi Reed: You can love someone and hate their guts at the same time

Levi Reed: glares at Vee

wyjyoon (Temperance): Honestly anything she finds interesting she writes. It's filled with a bunch of unrelated observations that catches her eye lol

Vee Barlett: gives him the fingers

seyfert (Vee Barlett): which are fun to read!

Temperance: hums and scribbles down "You can love someone and hate them at the same time" - Levi

seyfert (Vee Barlett): even though Vee would disagree with the latest entry and say Rothuss is the poopdeck... unless that's Jericho

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol she's slowly working up to writing about everyone :D

Vee Barlett: Maybe don't start a fight with her to start, yeah? 'Cause we gonna go see yer family.

wyjyoon (Temperance): With flowery metaphors and philosophical bs that they'll all hate

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

Levi Reed: I never start it!

Levi Reed: My only problem with Lila is that she hates me!

Vee Barlett: Don't continue it, neither.

MeLange: She's your sister Levi, just from all the time you spent with her, all those years growing, not about loving her, but knowing her, what is it that she wants? What is it that would suit her as a character? A person?

Vee Barlett: Well, ya, you easy to hate sometimes.

MeLange: as a gift, not the business obviously ha

Levi Reed: What she really wants is for me to be a woman, so she can still be the princess who inhereted the kingdom

Levi Reed: I can't give her that

GM: Love the players hate the game

MeLange: Oh but I guess the business really would be the best gift

Vee Barlett: I mean, maybe? There be spells out there to do that.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Sometimes you love the game but hate the players

Vee Barlett: Or so the stories go.

GM: and now Wendy taking it 0 - 100

Levi Reed: Even if I wanted that, pretty sure we can't afford it

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lmao

MeLange: Well I dunno man I gave it my best shot! Buy some fancy flowers and hope for the best

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh lmao

Vee Barlett: True. I ain't wastin' money on you.

Levi Reed: She likes you, though, Vee

Vee Barlett: Harder to threat yer bites when ya piss me off, too, if ya changed it on me.

Vee Barlett: Ya. 'Cause I'm cool.

Levi Reed: If we're getting a boat, it's gonna be you that gets it

Vee Barlett: Mel and I got this.

Levi Reed: I mean, I can ask dad

Levi Reed: But you know as well as I do that the real fight is Lila

Vee Barlett: You gotta take lead, man. We'll jump in where we can.

Levi Reed: Maybe we can talk to the twins first

Levi Reed: They can soften her up maybe

Vee Barlett: nods along as she drinks

Vee Barlett: And yer mom.

Levi Reed: Maybe

Shislif (MeLange): brb refill

User has gone AFK. (Shislif)

Temperance: closes her notebook and observes the box in her hand, contemplating whether or not to open it.

wyjyoon (Temperance): (do I have to roll obs to observe the details or is it cool to just open it?)

GM: You can just open it

Levi Reed: starts to nod off a bit

Vee Barlett: jabs Levi in the ribs, hard.

Levi Reed: accidentally whacks her in the boob

Temperance: glances at Levi nodding off and reaches to nudge him, but Vee beats her to it.

Levi Reed: runs away

Temperance: Er...

Vee Barlett: hopes he falls into the water hole

Vee Barlett: If ya drown, I ain't savin' ya.

Levi Reed: just barely misses the water hole

Temperance: turns her attention back to the box and opens it.

Levi Reed: I'd rather drown than talk to Lila

Vee Barlett: Maybe shoulda gotten them mermaids to drown him for me...

Vee Barlett: Well we goin' one way or another so either get drunker or walk it off dumbass.

Temperance: He fights pretty well most of the time, so probably not. It'd be a hassle to try and ressurect him.

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): lol

Vee Barlett: rolls eyes and drinks more

Temperance: Besides, I'd need to get him to write his will before he thinks about drowning himself. Good to know what he wants done with his body after death.

Vee Barlett: Can't we forge it?

Levi Reed: Feed it to the fish!!!!

Temperance: nonchalantly observes the contents inside the box.

Vee Barlett: Nah, I'm gonna give it to them monkeys.

Levi Reed: I'll haunt you

Levi Reed: And your dads

Vee Barlett: That's fine. You'll have to chase me underwater.

Levi Reed: I'll whisper sweet ghostly nothings into their ears every night

GM: Inside the box Temperance finds a large golden/brass key with the insignia of Mizzen

Vee Barlett: rolls eyes

GM: It seems that the key is made of several pieces

Vee Barlett: 'Cause you think it that easy, huh? They got ways to take care of that.

Levi Reed: I'm hoping they do

Levi Reed: winks

Temperance: raises an eyebrow and turns it around in her hand.

Vee Barlett: grabs the empty bottle and throws it at him

Levi Reed: attempts to duck but just kind of falls over

Temperance: Are you hurt, Levi?

Levi Reed: Never been better, Temp!

Vee Barlett: [ATTACK (R)] [THACO(16)] [d20 = 4]

Attack [4] ->[ATTACK (R)] (Dagger) [at Levi Reed] [AC: 12 ]

seyfert (Vee Barlett): nope, she missed lol

Vee Barlett: LEVI! Stop makin' a mess!

Vee Barlett: Clean that up before Gloria gets out here!

Levi Reed: I didn't make a mess!

Vee Barlett: I told ya not to run with the bottle in yer hand!

Levi Reed: Unless you're talking about me, not much I can do about me

Temperance: glances up, opens her mouth, and closes it.

Vee Barlett: is full on framing him

Vee Barlett: Clean that shit up or she gonna cut ya off.

Levi Reed: TIME FOR A POEM!

wyjyoon (Temperance): (do I roll obs to know what the "several pieces" are for the key? Or is that a separate skill?)

Levi Reed: There once was a man named Troy

wyjyoon (Temperance): Tempe trying to focus with the shitshow around her lol

Levi Reed: Who was cute when he was a boy

seyfert (Vee Barlett): lol

Levi Reed: But then he got bigger

Vee Barlett: And louder.

Levi Reed: And as far AS I CAN FIGURE

Vee Barlett: You can't

Levi Reed: HE WANTS ME TO BE HIS NEW SEX TOY

Levi Reed: [SKILL] Artistic Ability [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 14]

Temperance: exhales and moves to clean whatever mess there is, observing whether Levi is injured from whatever is happening.

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Levi is a genuis.

Vee Barlett: is too disturbed by that turn to say anything

GM: Temperance would know, it is fairly obvious that this is made up of several parts as a ceremonial thing but to take it apart will take more skill,

Vee Barlett: Sorry, y'all. I don't know him. Met him off the street.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay cool

Vee Barlett: goes back to drinking and ignoring Levi.

Temperance: mumbles to herself, "What in the world is this sex toy anyway" and goes to clean up the mess.

Temperance: Are you hurt, Levi?

Levi Reed: noooooooooooooope, I'm goood Tempe (slurring a little)

Temperance: Well, clearly your functions are slowed down considerably.

Temperance: I suppose drinking numbs pain as well.

Levi Reed: Who needsss fucntins anyway

Temperance: You, silly. You fight with a sword.

Vee Barlett: You don't 'cause you ain't gettin' laid tonight.

Vee Barlett: mutters to herself

Levi Reed: no fightings in here

Temperance: You don't know that, but I hope so.

Levi Reed: we chased thos daragons away already

Levi Reed: no more fightings

Temperance: Those... dragons?

Temperance: looks confused but nods anyway.

Levi Reed: slayed em

Vee Barlett: The wannabe gang member who came in here once awhile ago.

Temperance: Right. Glad we slayed those dragons. Would you like to sit now?

[200 XP] -> Levi Reed

Temperance: Oh, I see.

Levi Reed: yep thems the ones

Temperance: If there's glass on the floor it wouldn't do for people to step on them.

'Levi Reed' applied '200' experience to Ranger.

Levi Reed: no glasses

Vee Barlett: Levi needs to clean it up. It's his mess.

Levi Reed: i can see fine

Temperance: I mean, he could try. I don't think he'd do that good of a job.

Temperance: glances back at him.

Temperance: No offense.

Levi Reed: no fence taken

Vee Barlett: shrugs

Vee Barlett: Ain't bother me if he hurt himself.

Shislif (MeLange): lol

Temperance: Right, but it'd bother me so it's my problem now.

Temperance: Do they have a broom anywhere?

Levi Reed: i'm fiiiiiiiiiiiine Empeee

Gloria: What are you letting him do now Vee?

Temperance: Right. Are you fine standing or would you like to sit?

Levi Reed: looks at Tempe

Levi Reed: yourrr one of uss now you knows

Raimund Feilhaber: I am wrapping up the kitchen any last requests

Vee Barlett: I ain't lettin' him do nothin'

Vee Barlett: He's makin' a mess himself.

Levi Reed: stuck with us

Temperance: I... yes?

Gloria: You want to clean up after him?

Levi Reed: stucks and stones

Temperance: looks confused as to where this conversation is going.

Vee Barlett: His mess to clean.

Gloria: Looks over at Tempe

Gloria: You need food?

Temperance: Oh, I'd appreciate something to clean up the mess, yes.

Temperance: Vee, would you like some food?

Gloria: Vee can do that

Gloria: You want food?

Vee Barlett: Food is good.

Levi Reed: Gory glory goria. You know me

Vee Barlett: Levi can sweep up his mess.

Gloria: Raimund!!!!! Get our priestess here some food

Levi Reed: I would never mess

Gloria: and some scraps for Vee

Levi Reed: never

Raimund Feilhaber: Gotcha Vee, who is your friend?

Levi Reed: not my favorite bar not once not nevers

Temperance: gently puts the key she was * attempting * to observe back in the box and stores it safely in her pack.

Vee Barlett: Which one? Only one currently a friend here is Mel.

Raimund Feilhaber: Not your priestess?

MeLange: Thanks Vee

MeLange smiles

Levi Reed: STUCKS AND STONES RAY

Vee Barlett: Ehh, I suppose she might be. She carin' about Levi a bit much. That's Tempe.

Raimund Feilhaber: Levi has been here since he was a little boy, never seen this Tempe before

Temperance: Someone around here has to.

Raimund Feilhaber: Are you his girlfriend Tempe?

Temperance: Hello, I go by Temperance. Who might you be?

Temperance: Oh goodness, no.

Vee Barlett: Nah, Levi still don't swing that way.

Raimund Feilhaber: Laughs

Vee Barlett: And Tempe don't swing any way.

Levi Reed: giggles uncontrollably

Vee Barlett: We picked her up in Mizzen on our way back. Some reason she ain't scared away yet.

Raimund Feilhaber: Pauses at that, do you eat Temperance?

Temperance: I do eat, yes, like... most humans, I assume?

Levi Reed: no she's my friend

Temperance: Why do you ask?

Levi Reed: we dont eat frieds ray

Vee Barlett: Don't worry. She sometimes talks weird, but she's 100% human.

Raimund Feilhaber: Shakes his head, Last call for the kitchen if you want something

Vee Barlett: Fish n' chips!

Levi Reed: potatoes any which way you got em

MeLange: Ohh I could go for some fish n chips!

Temperance: Some tea would be nice. I could go for some of those potatoes Levi mentioned.

MeLange: just carbs? really?

Raimund Feilhaber: Four sets of fish and chips coming up

Raimund Feilhaber: Goes in the back

Vee Barlett: One of them ...what they call them? Elongated Island Iced Teas?

Levi Reed: yasss carbs

Joycelyn Pemberton: Screw you guys

Levi Reed: soaks up the whatsits

Vee Barlett: Cheers, Joycelyn!

MeLange: \Ha!

Temperance: Elongated... Island Ice.. what?

Vee Barlett: Just a tea full of alcohol. I forget who came up with it. Weird name, but great for drinkin' and forgettin'

Temperance: Preferably not one with alcohol, thank you. I feel as though I need to stay sober tonight.

Joycelyn Pemberton: I am out of here

Temperance: glances back at Joycelyn and furrows her brows.

Joycelyn Pemberton: I gave you your key go to the Cathedral tomorrow

Vee Barlett: Hope yer night improves. Or ya at least drink enough to forget it!

Levi Reed: not yet, is till sees you

Joycelyn Pemberton: Good Luck

Joycelyn Pemberton: I do hope you suceed if he is really in trouble

Vee Barlett: I hope there a fat money chest.

Joycelyn Pemberton: I have no ideas

Temperance: What we do with the key is up to our discretion, but I appreciate you coming all the way here.

Joycelyn Pemberton: have a good night

Temperance: I wish you a good evening as well.

Joycelyn Pemberton: She leaves to go back up to the Temple

Levi Reed: bye joyceeee

MeLange: Good night!

Levi Reed: Great, watchdog is gone. Open that box up Tempe.

Vee Barlett: She already did, Lev.

GM: Levi definately has been drinking

Levi Reed: But not good enough!

Vee Barlett: lol

Levi Reed: Open it better!

seyfert (Vee Barlett): (ooc)

Vee Barlett: You gotta open yer eyes better.

Levi Reed: Let's take a good look without big sister breathing down our necks

Temperance: I had to put it away because someone was speaking poems and I wanted to pay attention, but alright.

Levi Reed: Check for secret compartments

Temperance: takes out the box again and opens it.

Temperance: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 2] [d20 = 11]

Vee Barlett: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 8]

wyjyoon (Temperance): Wanted a better roll but ok

Vee Barlett: looks over her shoulder

GM: There seems to be three pieces, maybe? but Temperance cannot see how to disconnect them

Levi Reed: [SKILL] Artistic Ability [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 14]

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Why not artistically examine the box

GM: That would take an open locks roll to pull them apart

Temperance: holds the box out to Levi so he can artistically observe it.

Temperance: It seems as though we would need some skill to take this key apart.

GM: Vee can tell that yes this is high quality box/wood, and metal for the key, gold, silver, brass to make it ornamental

Temperance: It's comprised of 3 pieces.

Levi Reed: Hmmm. Lalie might be able to do something with this. She always unlocks stuff for me when I lose my keys

GM: Levi can tell that this box and key are a created set, something to give someone as a gift from the Duke, something to show they have his favor

Vee Barlett: Fancy.

Levi Reed: Pretty fancy gift box though

GM: BUT the key is more than just a ceremonial key

Temperance: From the Duke of Mizzen she said?

GM: Would need to find out more from someone who knows the Duke? or take it back to his family to find out more?

Temperance: Must be a reason why it's so... ornamental.

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): It does have his stamp or something, yeah? symbol, stamp, something?

GM: But there is a letter at the Cathedral that will only be released for someone with this Key apparently

Vee Barlett: Yeah. Not a bad guy to have in yer favor.

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): The duke of mizzen was the ones who was friends with d'orange?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): his son

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): ah, right

wyjyoon (Temperance): I think Bob said it had a symbol of the church of mizzen, but I don't remember, there was a lot going on lol

GM: The letter is what she said (or meant to)

GM: The Key has the Duke's symbols, the letter has the churches symbol

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh okay gotcha

Levi Reed: Yeah, especially if you want him to put in a good word for you with Ruffus

Levi Reed: See your old fling again

GM: So you need to go to Osterhold first before going to Mizzen

Temperance: I suppose it isn't a terrible connection to have under your belt.

Temperance: Though I'm not sure who Ruffus is...

Vee Barlett: The reason I'm makin' sure my knives are sharp.

wyjyoon (Temperance): And you said that Tempe was from the Cathedral in Osterhold?

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): Oh good point

GM: Originally yes, they sent her to Mizzen for training and she got tangled up with a bunch of scoundrels and life took over

Temperance: pauses to think about that before nodding in understanding.

Levi Reed: So Tempe... what's your connection to Osterhold?

seyfert (Vee Barlett): but was born elsewhere?

Levi Reed: I thought you were just a lost island puppy looking for adventure

seyfert (Vee Barlett): born somewhere, went to the cathedral for training, then present

wyjyoon (Temperance): Most likely : )

GM: Carissa has the gist of it, but Wendy can expand as she wants to

Levi Reed: I mean, I knew you were church folk but I thought you were MIZZEN church folk

Levi Reed: Mizzen church is pretty ok

Vee Barlett: With her need to be lawful? Nah.

Temperance: At the time I met you all, I wasn't the most trusting person out there. I didn't feel any obligation to tell you my life story. So I went with telling you as little as possible and let you make up what you wanted to believe.

Levi Reed: And now?

Temperance: Now? You're still a questionable crew who makes questionable choices. But...well, I suppose I've learned to trust you considerably more than before.

Levi Reed: You have literally held several of our lives in your hand at various points

Vee Barlett: Amazing she didn't end them.

Levi Reed: I'm starting to wonder if she might have

MeLange: yea good job there!

Temperance: You could've just left me to perish at the mouth of the cave with the Shambling Mound.

Levi Reed: If the church had told her to

Temperance: shrugs her shoulders.

Temperance: What matters is that I didn't.

Levi Reed: Yeah, but now I don't know if I should trust you

Temperance: And you chose not to, either.

Temperance: Up to you what you'd like to do.

Vee Barlett: Why wouldn't ya?

Vee Barlett: You trusted Jericho pretty quick and he was from the Temple.

Levi Reed: Because she's secretly been working for the cathedral this whole time?

Levi Reed: Yeah but that idiot didn't lie about it

Temperance: Like I said from the very beginning, I'm not going to try and convince you.

Vee Barlett: Yeah and apparent I am, too? They say shit they want to say to force the narrative.

Vee Barlett: That's what people in power do.

Levi Reed: But you argue with her at least

Vee Barlett: Technically Jericho works for the Cathedral 'cause he works for the Temple. ALL religious types do, yeah? Whether they want to or not.

Vee Barlett: Well she ain't an idiot like you.

Levi Reed: Not Mizzen, man

Vee Barlett: I don't argue with Mel, neither.

MeLange: Oh yea

Vee Barlett: If Cathedral wanted Mizzen to do somethin' for them, they would.

Levi Reed: Nah, I'm saying when the church people come claiming you're one of them, you tell them to fuck off

MeLange: seems kinda rude levi

Vee Barlett: She ain't done nothin' but let the church remind her of their claims on her.

Vee Barlett: Feel free to tail her when we in Osterhold to make sure she don't spill stuff to the Cathedral.

Levi Reed: Oh, yeah, I guess hiding things about yourself wouldn't seem suspicious to someone like you

Vee Barlett: rolls eyes

Vee Barlett: Well do whatever ya feel like ya gotta do to now be suspicious about her. Or keep bein' suspicious, but be nicer 'bout it.

MeLange: II feel bad when you guys fight all the time, just sayin'

MeLange: Doesn't feel very united

Levi Reed: This isn't even fighting

Temperance: You don't have to be nice about it if you don't wish to. Whether you are or not won't bother me.

MeLange: but it is also nice to be nice

Temperance: Do whatever you'd like, say whatever you'd like, think whatever you like. You have the freedom to do it.

Vee Barlett: Nice be nice, yeah.

Levi Reed: If I was fighting with Vee, I'd be dead

Vee Barlett: Still could happen.

Levi Reed: Yes

MeLange: You know what I mean, the verbal fighting

Levi Reed: Yes it could

Levi Reed: Nah, we're just friends discussing ideas

MeLange: the hurt feelings instead of hurt bodies

Temperance: Would it be considered torture if I healed you everytime you were about to die, even when I know she'd shank you?

Levi Reed: If I was verbally fighting with her, I'd also be dead. Not verbally.

Levi Reed: wow

MeLange: dark

Levi Reed: backs away

LemonyLemon (Levi Reed): lol definitely don't trust her now

MeLange: looks at Tempe

Temperance: Just wanted to know what you wanted, in case the situation ever came up.

Vee Barlett: Huh, not a bad idea, though...

wyjyoon (Temperance): (that came out way darker than I thought honestly)

MeLange: good to make these decisions ahead of time

seyfert (Vee Barlett): LOL

GM: Same Eagles Different Liver

wyjyoon (Temperance): (Apologies LOL)

Levi Reed: Just let me die man

Levi Reed: I've lived a good life

Levi Reed: Give Lila my regards

MeLange: nope

Temperance: Good to know.

MeLange: veto

Vee Barlett: Nope. You gotta give them to her yerself. Ya ain't gettin' out of this that easily.

Levi Reed: You WANT me to be tortured?

MeLange: He don't get to make that decision

Temperance: Oh, why, pray tell?

Levi Reed: I gotta rethink this relationship

MeLange: just a little bit of pain

MeLange: but then you get to live

MeLange: and feel fine and have orgasms again

Levi Reed: You ever been shanked by Vee?

Levi Reed: I'm sure it's more than a little bit of pain

MeLange: Well no, cause guess what, I'm nice to people

GM: love

Vee Barlett: Ain't a good shankin' if ya don't wish ya weren't about to die.

Vee Barlett: *were

Levi Reed: See?

MeLange breathes in deeply

seyfert (Vee Barlett): poor mel, we're really testing him tonight, lol

Levi Reed: Look, we all have our place you know?

wyjyoon (Temperance): (We're stressing him out lol)

Shislif (MeLange): lol

Levi Reed: You're a bright little spot of sunshine. And that's nice

Levi Reed: SOMEONE has to be skeptical

Vee Barlett: That's why he fancies ya.

MeLange: Exactly, and if you die who's gonna be skeptical?

MeLange: besides Vee

Vee Barlett: Ya but gotta make sure yer skeptical of the right thing.

MeLange: and most other people you meet

Vee Barlett: laughs

Levi Reed: Eh, you'll find someone

Vee Barlett: laughs

MeLange: Just suck it up Lev, you gotta live, you gotta talk toyour sister, and you gotta do whatever else

Levi Reed: You're a good looking guy, tons of people out there ready to take advantage of a litle ray of sunshine like you7

MeLange: and there's no easy out just cause Vee decides to shank somebody

Levi Reed: Remember Beth?

MeLange: Quiet

Vee Barlett: You gotta talk to yer sister, Lev. Stop chagin' subjects.

MeLange: And now you tell Temp that you are to be resucitated

MeLange: resuscitated

MeLange: you know what I mean

Levi Reed: Absolutely not. I'd rather die than let Vee shank me more than once

Temperance: Ink and quill at the ready whenever you wish it.

Vee Barlett: Oh, don't worry. I wouldn't do a one hit shank on ya.

MeLange: You'd just let her win then?

Levi Reed: If Vee is trying to kill me, I probably deserve it

Vee Barlett: Only do that to people I feel like bein' nice o.

MeLange: Then you live and make it up to her!

MeLange: This is a silly conversation

Vee Barlett: Think Levi hit the depression part of drunk now.

Levi Reed: I'm not drunk

MeLange: well at least this then

Vee Barlett: Philosophical, poems, sluggish, then depression. It matches up.

Levi Reed: I was trying to chase big sis away

MeLange: Please, just don't sign anything right now

GM: laughs

MeLange: iI'll take no decision over the wrong decision

GM: new loan on a ship

Temperance: Relax Melange, I'll heal him. He fights well, and you want him around, clearly.

MeLange: Thanks Temp, I appreciate that

Levi Reed: Under any other circumstances, yes. Please save me

Vee Barlett: And I'll only maim him. For now.

Levi Reed: But if Vee wants me dead, please leave me dead

MeLange: You have this hand for a favor, should you need one

Temperance: Sure, I'll see if I need to use that favor. Does it have an expiry period?

MeLange: I need to be alone for a few

MeLange: walks away from the group

Levi Reed: I've never known Vee to NOT get what she wants, and I really don't want to be alive to watch her try and kill me over and over again

Levi Reed: AND IF MELANGE LOVED ME, HE WOULD UNDERSTAND THAT

Vee Barlett: grins

Temperance: Well, I've learned that people who care about you don't want you to die.

Temperance: Even if it's against your will. Interesting.

Vee Barlett: And you remindin' him of that possibility probably why he needed to step away.

Levi Reed: Yeaaaaah, well, I haven't actually tried to hook up with her dads yet

Levi Reed: Give it time

Vee Barlett: 'Cause you never will.

Levi Reed: She'll want me dead one day

GM: So Temp cares about Levi becasue she will not let him die, she will keep on healing him as Vee shanks him

Temperance: Apologies, I didn't mean any offense.

Vee Barlett: Levi, ya gotta drop this for now, yeah?

Temperance: I didn't think topics of death would be triggering for him.

Levi Reed: He had a rough childhood

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol does Temp care about Levi? : D

Vee Barlett: Hopefully new day, new adventure cheers him up.

Vee Barlett: The twins good ray of sunshine for Mel.

GM: And with that I do think we have a nice ending point. Sleep it off and in the morning see Levi's family
