You have just entered room "andthewaitingisthehardestpart." Besyanteo has entered the room. FFFan80 has entered the room. Arch mage144 has entered the room. FFFan80: (About time =[ ) Arch mage144: (*drops from the ceiling* HUZZAH!)
FFFan80: (Evening peeps) Lithaladhwen: (Jesus H. Christ.)
Besyanteo: (Hey. Home issues. Sorry folks.)
Arch mage144: (He's not here right now, can I take a
message?)
Besyanteo: (By the way: )
PapatymisonN: (We're getting this done right away....) Besyanteo: (There's a significant chacne that some time tonight, the
computer will crash.)
Besyanteo: (So If I disappear, wait about 2 minutes or so.)
PapatymisonN: (Then everyone font up, and we'll begin.)
Lithaladhwen: <Myrnal> Besyanteo: (Yarr. Sheet and stat hunting.) PapatymisonN: (And if no one objects, I'm brooming us into
combat.) Arch mage144: <I FOUND MY FONT COLOR AT LAST...oh wait
Zeke>
GC130A has entered the room. PapatymisonN: (Hi. You like to watch, don't you?)
Besyanteo: ( last post )
FFFan80: <Stephan> Lithaladhwen: (Do whatever you want. I would just like to
know how we get there rather than OMG init rolls!)
Lithaladhwen: (I assume you'll tell us these things?)
GC130A: (I do!) PapatymisonN: (I shall.) PapatymisonN: (*getting set up, two minutes please*) Arch mage144: (GC is a voyeur.)
Arch mage144: (Also, Cave Story Remix = rock.)
PapatymisonN: <rp> PapatymisonN: (Roll call, just so my ego is satisfied.) Besyanteo: (Present.) Lithaladhwen: (*steps forward* Myrnal! *steps back*)
FFFan80: (Here) Arch mage144: (*salutes* Zeke Mazuo.)
PapatymisonN: (And I'm Liesl.) Lithaladhwen: (*laugh*)
PapatymisonN: *SO!* Lithaladhwen: (Thanks for getting the joke, Charles. Someone
did.)
PapatymisonN: (Hard not to.) PapatymisonN: *The gang is at a crossroads. They've re-found
their exit, but they've also found a junction. Escape is to the
right. The beast is surely ahead.* PapatymisonN: *presumably (speak now if the following statement
is false) they decide to slay the beast, rather than let it live to
kill again...* Lithaladhwen: (Myrnal and Stephan have become pacifists.)
Lithaladhwen: (They're working to convert Zeke.)
PapatymisonN: (That works too. It means the RP is over.) Lithaladhwen: (But I'm sure Spark will murder everything in
sight, so we're covered.)
Arch mage144: *I think Zeke wants to shoot things*
Besyanteo: (Well yeah, didn't you hear? He's a fire starter. He's gonna
go Kerry on your asses.) Arch mage144: (He's a firestarter! Twisted firestarter!)
FFFan80: *pass up the chance to stab things... uh huh... yeah*
Lithaladhwen: (As in Stephan King's Carrie, or John Kerry?)
Lithaladhwen: (Cuz you know Kerry. He's into that whole Yale
thing>)
Besyanteo: (... The former, becasue the latter doesn't need to be in
Gaera.) PapatymisonN: *it's decided. The four enter the lair of the beast,
who sits coiled in the centre of a giant hollowed out room...* PapatymisonN: *it appears it had to rest after such a wonderful
meal...* Arch mage144: ...*quirks an eyebrow* IM: Hideous. I want to
shoot it already.
PapatymisonN: *once their feet come within a hundred yards of it,
it begins to stir...* FFFan80: ...e.e *weapon at the ready*
PapatymisonN: *as it comes to life it's clear that it's an annelid, but
it's motions have the swiftness of a snake* Lithaladhwen: ....Ew.
Besyanteo: ... o_O You can say that again. PapatymisonN: *it rears up, it's "head" high above them... a long,
fanged mouth opened and roared...* PapatymisonN: *this one's gonna get ugly* PapatymisonN: (Initiative.) Arch mage144: *pistol in each hand, a smirk on his face* Pretty
disgusting creature...if you're not too full, I'd like to
introduce you to my new diet plan!
Arch mage144: It's especially high in lead!

PapatymisonN: (And you'd all better remember what the

PapatymisonN: (And now, roll d6. I need to know if you touch the
beast with your hand...)
OnlineHost: FFFan80 rolled 1 6-sided die: 1 PapatymisonN: *Stephan's longsword plunged deep into the beast,
it screeching in pain...* PapatymisonN: *somehow, his hand did not even come close to
touching the beast.* PapatymisonN: (Myrnal.) Lithaladhwen: *Remembering the warning about touching it...
Myrnal opts to keep her distance for as long as possible.*
Lithaladhwen: *She throws one of her daggers at it, her favorite
one that returns when thrown!*
OnlineHost: Lithaladhwen rolled 1 20-sided die: 20 Lithaladhwen: (Shit, forgot to mention the tech. Next time, since
it'll probably be excessive here.)
Lithaladhwen: (That is... 45.)

PapatymisonN: *obviously, that hit a tender spot, as the creature
ROARS again in pain, seeming to take notice of certain
individuals now...* PapatymisonN: *obviously, the little ninja sparked his interest, and
green ooze drips from his mouth...* PapatymisonN: *and, a volley of venom flies at her!* PapatymisonN: (Roll for Missile Evade.) Besyanteo: (I am skipped. :-( ) Lithaladhwen: (Spark doesn't get a turn?)
PapatymisonN: (Dang!) Lithaladhwen: (And sure. I'll be prepared to do so.)
PapatymisonN: (Sorry, misread. Firebug, GO!) PapatymisonN: (Yes, was hoping that.) Besyanteo: *Hey, can we still see that green ooze?( FFFan80: (Fuzzy-ism!)
PapatymisonN: *sure!* Besyanteo: ( =D ) Besyanteo: *He aims a fire spell at that, hoping to set the inside of the
thing on fire.*

PapatymisonN: *GRAAAAARR!* PapatymisonN: *apparently, the slime that covers the beast and
gives it its zombifiying power acts as accelerant...* FFFan80: o_o
FFFan80: -_-
FFFan80: o_o
PapatymisonN: *blue flames whip across the form of the beast,
leaving burns all over...* PapatymisonN: *it's still fighting, but it looks... quite haggard
now...* Lithaladhwen: ...What the shit.
PapatymisonN: (Venom spit time.) Besyanteo: Told you I wouldn't get in the way. >.> Lithaladhwen: (Missile evasion time from Myrnal?)

PapatymisonN: (Zeke ol' boy...) Arch mage144: IM: Not getting close to that thing. No fucking
way.
Lithaladhwen: (Cripes. You should hear what Brian is playing.)
Arch mage144: *opens fire! 2x shot, and he's using focused aim
twice to get a +5 bonus on each shot*
OnlineHost: Arch mage144 rolled 2 20-sided dice: 8 5 Lithaladhwen: (Fargin Final Fantasy battle music. Quick!
Someone throw a pfenix down at the worm!)
Arch mage144: (29 and 26)

PapatymisonN: (... accurate.) Lithaladhwen: (Does he get to crit the timorous beastie?)
PapatymisonN: *No!* PapatymisonN: *the shot puts a deep, DEEP hole in the beast...* PapatymisonN: *it begins to lurch forward, jaws open wide...* PapatymisonN: *and just as you think it's about to attack... it
flumps on the ground, dead* Besyanteo: ... Lithaladhwen: Well.
Besyanteo: Whoo! Lithaladhwen: That was gross.
Besyanteo: *He does a little victory jig!* FFFan80: ....
PapatymisonN: (It was just enough damage to finish it off. Almost
exactly the rest of its HP.) Lithaladhwen: And good work, Spark. You're a natural. You
should continue killing gross things for a living. I think it
suits you.
FFFan80: e.e *sets it on fire again anyway*
Lithaladhwen: *laughs*
FFFan80: (Ignite if it matters)
Besyanteo: Yay! You think so?! PapatymisonN: *it makes a warm, foulsmelling fire!* Arch mage144: ...ah, excellent.
Arch mage144: I like when things stop shooting after I put a
few bullets in them.
Arch mage144: *holsters his weapons and smirks*
Besyanteo: (You mean stop moving?) Lithaladhwen: *nods to Spark* Yeah.
Arch mage144: *moving
Arch mage144: (YES.)
Besyanteo: (=D) Lithaladhwen: (I didn't get to tech-stack the worm. Sadness.)
Lithaladhwen: (I could have supercritted it if I'd thought to that
first time.)
Arch mage144: You know, in some circumstances, I'd deliver a
good strong kick to the bastard's corpse just to cement the
deal.
Arch mage144: But in this case, that seems like a bad move.
Arch mage144: I have no interest in being a zombie.
PapatymisonN: *wow... yeah... ooh, smells bad...* Lithaladhwen: Yeah, like many situations we've been in.... *wags
her finger at him* No touchie, Zeke.
Lithaladhwen: *smirks*
Arch mage144: ...*smirks*
Besyanteo: ... *he covers his nose* Besyanteo: I think we should go now. Stinky. Arch mage144: So, I think we've done our good deed for the
day. And it smells like ass down here, thanks to our
pyromaniacal urges.
Arch mage144: I'm with the kid. Let's get out of here.
Lithaladhwen: *nods and leads the way out*
FFFan80: ...You think I'm leaving an undead body lying around? >\/>
Fuck no.
Besyanteo: *follows out!* Arch mage144: What are you going to do with it?
FFFan80: *ditto*
Lithaladhwen: Well, burn it apparently. I've done the same
several times.
Lithaladhwen: Like with our Corrigan.
Arch mage144: I suppose that burning it was a decent idea,
sure.
Arch mage144: Oh, hell. I remember that.
Arch mage144: That son of a bitch.
PapatymisonN: (So! How does one determine undeadness?) Lithaladhwen: His pickup lines were worse than yours.
Arch mage144: He was also about half as tall as I am and
could've sucked my dick without bending over.
Lithaladhwen: *laugh*
Lithaladhwen: That little piece of shit. He looked me right in the
eye and said, "I will fuck you."
Arch mage144: Not that I'd ever want him to.
Arch mage144: Gotta love gnomes.
Besyanteo: ... *covers his ears* FFFan80: ....well someone has balls apparently.
Besyanteo: LA LA LA LA LA. FFFan80: >\/>?
Lithaladhwen: He did, I'll give him that. I'm so glad I got to kill
him multiple times.
Besyanteo: CAN'T HEAR YOU NOW. Besyanteo: >_< PapatymisonN: (No, really. How? Cuz I want to know how you
guys find out it's NOT...) FFFan80: Oh come on, I heard worse from my father 9_9
FFFan80: ...and ma too, come to think of it.
Besyanteo: *bumps into a wall* Besyanteo: ... *and opens his eyes again.* <_<; Arch mage144: *laughing*
Arch mage144: Seriously, this place is a drag. Let's go home.
FFFan80: (It makes things undead, herego, it needs to be made
certain it is not getting back up. That tis the swordie's logic)
PapatymisonN: (Eh. It's irrelevant. Kill, burn, destroy, I don't
care.) Lithaladhwen: Yeah. Good killing things with you again, Zeke.
Hopefully we'll do that again before someone inevitably
hires you to come after me. That will probably prevent
future collaboration.
Lithaladhwen: *little salute to the merc*
Arch mage144: *salutes in return*
Arch mage144: I don't think anyone will hire me to hunt you.
Arch mage144: Then again, I've had some strange targets in my
day.
Arch mage144: Honestly, I'm not entirely confident in my
ability to shoot you. You're a quick little bitch.
Lithaladhwen: *chuckles*
Lithaladhwen: That's sweet.
Lithaladhwen: I'm touched, really.
Arch mage144: Heh. It's nothing.
Lithaladhwen: But honestly. Somebody hired you to hunt Darin.
He's the least offensive man ever to live.
Arch mage144: The Prandians are weird.
Lithaladhwen: Someone wants me dead. They just haven't
gotten around to it yet.
Arch mage144: I have no idea what they wanted with him.
Arch mage144: *shrugs*
Lithaladhwen: No freaking clue. Maybe he was studying too
loudly, so they sent you to shoot him in the face.
Arch mage144: Hey, like I said. I have no idea.
Arch mage144: Apparently they thought he was dangerous.
Technically, they wanted him alive.
Arch mage144: I was told he was a deserting soldier with a kill
streak longer than the distance from here to Argovia.
Besyanteo: *So! It shouldn't be far to that ladder up. Up and out?* Lithaladhwen: Maybe. It might almost be a pleasant surprise.
PapatymisonN: *Rope. It was a rope. You can't fool ME twice! And
yeah, up and out.* Lithaladhwen: Means he's normal.
Lithaladhwen: *lets Zeke go first this time*
Arch mage144: *so we climb*
Lithaladhwen: *yup*
Besyanteo: *Skitter* PapatymisonN: *the three survivors wait for them at the top* Lithaladhwen: IM: Oh, it's them. Including the cute one.
PapatymisonN: Gwyneth: o.o It's dead? Lithaladhwen: Yeah. You can go poke it yourself if you want.
PapatymisonN: *she breathes a sigh of relief* Arch mage144: Very dead.
Arch mage144: I recommend not poking it, though.
Lithaladhwen: Eh. Zeke's probably right.
FFFan80: I'd suggest giving the fire time to wear out though.
Besyanteo: It's burning, even. o.o PapatymisonN: Thank the ogds... PapatymisonN: *gods Lithaladhwen: The gods?
Lithaladhwen: I don't know. You saw what it was doing when
the gods were taking care of things.
Lithaladhwen: Thank greedy bastards with weapons.
Arch mage144: Yeah, why don't you thank us instead?
Arch mage144: We're right here, they aren't.
PapatymisonN: ... alright. ^^ PapatymisonN: Thank you, all of you. Lithaladhwen: ...IM: I can't believe she actually did it.
Lithaladhwen: It's not a big deal. We're getting paid.
PapatymisonN: Still... thank you... so much... FFFan80: Eh.
PapatymisonN: Dennis, the Father: We all thought we were going
to die... Arch mage144: It happens.
Lithaladhwen: Well, um. That's the funny thing about dying.
Arch mage144: This time, however, it didn't.
Lithaladhwen: Either you do or you don't.
PapatymisonN: *oh! The wagon driver's there too* Lithaladhwen: Yeah, um. See you around. *heads off to their
transportation*
PapatymisonN: So, there's room for everybody... shall we get back
to the city? PapatymisonN: All of us? Besyanteo: Yeah! And we can get paid. o.o PapatymisonN: No point leaving these poor three in a ruined town
all alone... Lithaladhwen: Eh. Shit happens.
Lithaladhwen: You want to come to Doma and wander around
the city all alone instead?
Lithaladhwen: IM: There are always ruined towns. One more is
just one more.
Arch mage144: *laughs* It might be better, I dunno.
PapatymisonN: Gwyneth: I could get debriefed once I get there... PapatymisonN: Dennis: We have family there. We'll stay there for
a while... FFFan80: who knows what the hell else is out here. I wouldn't stay
here either.
PapatymisonN: WD: Hope you folks don't mind the company as we
get back... Lithaladhwen: Not a big deal. We can handle Zeke, after all.
Lithaladhwen: *smirk
Lithaladhwen: *
Arch mage144: Yeah, you can.
Arch mage144: Doma can handle me, somehow.
PapatymisonN: WD: Well, no use staying here. Let's all go... PapatymisonN: (I've got nothing else to do with this.) Lithaladhwen: *heads out*
Lithaladhwen: (Neither do I!)
PapatymisonN: (We all pile into the wagon, and head back to the
city?) Arch mage144: *WAGONPILE*
Besyanteo: (EXP and suchlike?) Arch mage144: *we go on the Oregon Trail now, right?*
PapatymisonN: (Yep, XP time.) PapatymisonN: </rp> Lithaladhwen: (Everyone dies of daggers to the face, because
someone's gotta be Chuck Norris and why not Myrnal?)
Lithaladhwen: </Myrnal>
Besyanteo: Yarr. o.o
Lithaladhwen: asdfshfnMyfontisthesame.
PapatymisonN: Y'know, something occurs to me. Besyanteo: Hm?
PapatymisonN: If Myrnal had been affected by the worm's slime,
she'd have been an undead assassin. ^_^ Lithaladhwen: .......
Arch mage144: Oh dear.
Lithaladhwen: Kai=Undead assassin.
Besyanteo: Eh?
Besyanteo: We'd just become undead, like that?
Lithaladhwen: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kai_(Lexx) PapatymisonN: Well, there was some time of thrall before the
change became URRRRRRRRGH... Lithaladhwen: If Myrnal had gotten hit by that shit, she'd have
rerolled her evasion throw.
Arch mage144: We'd have to find a supply of protoblood to
sustain Myrnal.
Lithaladhwen: Because that's gross no matter what it does.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, man.
Lithaladhwen: Then Zeke really couldn't sleep with her.
PapatymisonN: And we'd have to find a sex slave to fall in love with
her. Besyanteo: ...
PapatymisonN: ... and a robotic head, eventually. FFFan80: ...
Lithaladhwen: Because he's TOTALLY our Xev. What Charles
said.
Besyanteo: At any rate, I need to go AFK in a minute here.
Besyanteo: EXP?
PapatymisonN: YES. FFFan80: I sense I'm missing a reference here. PapatymisonN: 450 for all. FFFan80: Anyways! Lithaladhwen: Dave: I linked it.
Arch mage144: Sweetness.
PapatymisonN: 30 extra to Spark for the rope. Besyanteo: !
PapatymisonN: 50 extra to Stephan for TAKING OUT AN
ENTIRE DAMN PACK OF ZOMBIES IN ONE DAMN SHOT. Lithaladhwen: That was groovy.
PapatymisonN: 50 extra to Myrnal for super-ninja sneakiness. Lithaladhwen: !
Lithaladhwen: Perfect.
Lithaladhwen: She hit level five.
Lithaladhwen: Right on the nose.
PapatymisonN: And 20 to Zeke for staring at Myrnal's ass. Besyanteo: Righto. Later folks.
PapatymisonN: Spark gets the "Needs to add a Y to his name"
award. Besyanteo: =P
PapatymisonN: Stephan gets the "I like fire MORE than the
firebug" award. PapatymisonN: Myrnal gets the "The night envelops all, including
my heart" award. Lithaladhwen: *laugh*
Arch mage144: Hoorj!
PapatymisonN: And Zeke gets the " Can both bullets EVER land?
v_v" award. PapatymisonN: I'm done. You're released. Go in the grace of our
Saviour. Lithaladhwen: Whoo!
Lithaladhwen: *pling* Level Up!
PapatymisonN: *Myrnal advances one spot on the Sphere Grid* Lithaladhwen: Whoo!
Lithaladhwen: I declare.
PapatymisonN: *its an empty node* FFFan80: Stephan: *eyes Darkness tech sphere* bloody Lv4 sphere
locks... e.e+++
Lithaladhwen: Speaking of levelling.
Lithaladhwen: Stephan is due for a few levels.
Lithaladhwen: *pokepoke*
FFFan80: <.<;;;;;; FFFan80: I guess I need to go over all my sheets at some point ehehe =D; Besyanteo: Yarr.
Besyanteo has left the room.
