(10:49:46 PM) You have just entered room "sean27."
(10:49:52 PM) CGNakibe has entered the room.
(10:50:19 PM) Lithaladhwen has entered the room.
(10:50:56 PM) TheWaiChibiAngel has entered the room.
Idran1701 (10:51:01 PM): All right, there we go. Anything to take care of before we start?
Lithaladhwen (10:51:16 PM): (*pees in a corner* Yeah, I'm good.)
Idran1701 (10:55:55 PM): Shaun, Shini, you two still here? I know there's some multitasking stuff going on, just wanting to be sure you're here, at least. :O
CGNakibe (10:56:20 PM): I'm somewhere around here.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:57:28 PM): *I might be down there.*
Idran1701 (10:57:40 PM): Good enough for me!
Idran1701 (10:58:06 PM): <RP START>
CGNakibe (10:58:36 PM): (Welcome back to the Island of Misfit Toys...)
Idran1701 (10:59:08 PM): When last we left off, the group had come across a surprising sight; a village of humans, located on the deepest layer of the Grey Waste. A friendly and inviting village at that.
Idran1701 (10:59:21 PM): The party is well-suspicious of this finding, but are their suspicions grounded?
Idran1701 (11:00:34 PM): For now, they find themselves led to a local pub by one of the villagers, walking through the soft dirt streets.
Idran1701 (11:00:54 PM): Things seem fairly empty here; there's the occasional sign of others, a light in the window here, some sounds of families there. But they seem to be the only ones out of doors at the moment.
Idran1701 (11:10:35 PM): (:O?)
CGNakibe (11:10:56 PM): *w* I KNOW there's something wrong here... just...
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:11:20 PM): *w* Why does there have to be something wrong?
CGNakibe (11:11:43 PM): *w* Why WOULDN'T there be?
Idran1701 (11:12:24 PM): *w* It does seem a little off, here...but maybe it's just the plane.
CGNakibe (11:12:36 PM): *Frowns*
Idran1701 (11:14:51 PM): Ah, here we are! *he stops in front of a building with a simple, hanging sign labeled "Adrien's"*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:15:01 PM): 'Adrien's'?
Idran1701 (11:15:11 PM): Yep, that's his name.
Idran1701 (11:15:45 PM): Now, come on, let's get a hot meal in you, see if we can't help you fight off this chill some.
CGNakibe (11:25:22 PM): IM: I can't say why.. but this whole place is... wrong somehow.
Idran1701 (11:26:38 PM): *stepping in, he heads to the counter, knocking on it and looking back towards the back room* Hey, we've got some visitors here!
Idran1701 (11:27:48 PM): *and another fellow steps out!* Eh? Ah...well, this is a nice surprise. Here for a room?
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:28:14 PM): Looks like it, yes.
CGNakibe (11:29:52 PM): What do you have?
Idran1701 (11:31:15 PM): Please, take a seat! I've got a roast on, I'd be happy to cut you folks off some. How's that sound?
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:31:25 PM): Sounds good, actually.
Idran1701 (11:31:26 PM): Got some spiced tea on the stove too.
CGNakibe (11:32:51 PM): IM: Maybe I'm just overreacting...
Idran1701 (11:33:09 PM): Think I'll have some of that myself, Adrien.
CGNakibe (11:35:11 PM): IM: Yeah, that's probably it.
Idran1701 (11:35:35 PM): *nods* Sure. I'll go ahead and get that together for you.
Idran1701 (11:35:54 PM): Jeremiah takes a seat, glancing to the three others. Karinska looks to Arian before taking her own chair.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:36:22 PM): *SIts!@*
Idran1701 (11:37:18 PM): And Adrien heads in the back once more!
Idran1701 (11:37:45 PM): *still giving the occasional concerned glance towards Lil* So, what brings you folks around here anyway?
CGNakibe (11:38:49 PM): *sits, cautiously*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:42:07 PM): Just passing through.
Idran1701 (11:42:32 PM): Been here a while, I take it?
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:43:04 PM): Hard to tell.
Idran1701 (11:47:32 PM): Ah. Yeah, things can be like that here. *smiles towards her* Just try to keep your spirits up. Spend some time here, I'm sure you'll get some color back.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:47:55 PM): *Laughs*
Idran1701 (11:50:19 PM): There, see? Getting some cheer like that, shouldn't take long at all.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:50:48 PM): Yeah, yeah, I'm sure it won't!
CGNakibe (11:50:48 PM): Hm.
Idran1701 (11:51:46 PM): I know what that can be like. The three of you, on your own out there...the loneliness can be almost opressive.
CGNakibe (11:55:46 PM): Very distressing, to say the least.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:55:56 PM): Yeah, that's one way of putting it.
Idran1701 (11:56:44 PM): One reason I was glad to find this village. You don't have to worry about loneliness with so many fellows around with you.
Idran1701 (11:56:57 PM): It helps to keep things safe from the natives too.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:57:16 PM): Natives?
Idran1701 (11:59:58 PM): Hordlings, mostly. Swarms of fiends that do nothing more than destroy and devour. Take it you've been lucky enough to keep away from them so far?
CGNakibe (12:00:21 AM): Oh. OH those.
CGNakibe (12:02:53 AM): We did have a run-in with them, yes.
CGNakibe (12:02:57 AM): Nasty things.
Idran1701 (12:03:09 AM): Ah. Well, lucky you survived, then.
Idran1701 (12:07:03 AM): ...You're safe from them here, though? Yep. They shy away from the town. Even the yugoloths haven't much tried to interfere here.
CGNakibe (12:07:16 AM): Good to know.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:07:53 AM): Weird.
Idran1701 (12:10:40 AM): *and here comes the food; the first of it, at least, as Adrien brings out a pair of plates, setting them in front of ARian and Lil* The rest'll be right out, you two. And so'll be that tea.
Idran1701 (12:10:47 AM): (*color)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:11:02 AM): Thanks.
Idran1701 (12:11:06 AM): Want anything special in that?
CGNakibe (12:11:33 AM): Um... No... No thanks.
CGNakibe (12:11:41 AM): (SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE. >.<)
Idran1701 (12:12:16 AM): (Luckily, this is roast and tea! :D)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:12:57 AM): Milk, and a little sugar, please.
Idran1701 (12:13:16 AM): *nods* ...Just a little milk for me.
CGNakibe (12:13:23 AM): *warily bites into the food.... when was the last time they HAD DECENT food anyway?*
Idran1701 (12:13:54 AM): And you know how I prefer mine. Heh, right. *and he heads off!*
Idran1701 (12:14:19 AM): *And the roast is...actually quite delicious. It's some of the better meat he's had, in fact, and prepared quite skillfully.*
Idran1701 (12:14:33 AM): *And it does taste like beef, hopefully alleviating some of Arian's fears.*
CGNakibe (12:15:07 AM): IM: Well, it certainly doesn't TASTE like poison... granted I've never tasted poison to know what it'd taste LIKE... 9.9
Idran1701 (12:18:06 AM): *The rest of the roast is brought out, and Karinska begins in on her own.* ...This isn't bad, really.
CGNakibe (12:18:21 AM): Its... quite good.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:18:38 AM): *Eating, not saying anything!*
Idran1701 (12:20:29 AM): So, you three planning on continuing on tomorrow?
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:20:36 AM): Most likely, yeah.
Idran1701 (12:21:51 AM): *nods* We wouldn't mind having you all a bit longer. We're having something of a get together tomorrow night, maybe you could stay for that.
CGNakibe (12:23:48 AM): *looks at Lilium and shrugs himself*
CGNakibe (12:24:05 AM): *although the look afterwards suggests that he's all for moving on!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:24:40 AM): We'll see.
Idran1701 (12:26:49 AM): Well, with any luck, then, we'll see you there.
Idran1701 (12:27:12 AM): Where're you headed after this, then?
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:35:25 AM): Er..
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:35:30 AM): ..We're meeting up with a friend.
Idran1701 (12:37:12 AM): Ah. Well, maybe you can bring them back here, once you meet up. It'd have to be safer than meeting up out there, after all.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:40:12 AM): Maybe.
Idran1701 (12:44:28 AM): *and here's the tea!* Well, I hope it's to your taste. I've got some work to do in back, or I'd join you myself.
CGNakibe (12:50:36 AM): Alright then. *sips tea, remembering... pinky up!*
CGNakibe (12:50:41 AM): *Well, not really*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:50:50 AM): (Pinkies up, asshole.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:50:58 AM): *Nods* Thank you.
Idran1701 (12:51:16 AM): *he nods back to the two, smiling as he heads towards the back again*
Idran1701 (12:51:34 AM): *and Arian drinks, finding the quality of the tea easily a match for that of the roast*
Idran1701 (12:59:43 AM): *Jeremiah sits back, enjoying his own tea* You know, we grow our own tea leaves here. Part of the flavor. Never tasted quite as good before I settled here.
CGNakibe (1:05:00 AM): Is there anything special you have to do to get a decent blend?
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:05:30 AM): IM: Seems to be doing a lot to encourage us to stay.
Idran1701 (1:06:33 AM): Nope, it's all in the leaves. If you do leave tomorrow, we could go ahead and give you a packet. You know how to make tea, I hope?
CGNakibe (1:06:44 AM): Of course.
Idran1701 (1:07:02 AM): *chuckles* People here have been making food so long, they rival halfling cuisine in quality by now, is my opinion.
CGNakibe (1:08:44 AM): Good to know.
CGNakibe (1:08:51 AM): IM: Why does that ring oddly in my mind?
Idran1701 (1:10:12 AM): We need a lot of it, though. More folks here than you'd expect for a village this small. No better way to fight off the loneliness, though.
Idran1701 (1:21:05 AM): *he glances out the window, finishing up the last of his roast as he sips at his tea* Hmm. Sorry to say, but I should probably be heading off soon. Got some gate duty to take care of pretty soon.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:21:50 AM): ..How many people leave here?
Idran1701 (1:21:53 AM): Still a little early to turn in, I imagine, so maybe you folks might like looking around town a bit. Adrien can point you towards your rooms once you start to get tired.
Idran1701 (1:21:54 AM): Hmm?
Idran1701 (1:22:04 AM): Ah...I'm not sure, actually. Never counted. *chuckles*
Idran1701 (1:22:12 AM): A pretty good number, though.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:22:23 AM): *Nods*
CGNakibe (1:23:09 AM): *nods as well*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:23:50 AM): Thanks, by the way.
Idran1701 (1:24:30 AM): Oh, no, I'm happy to help. And you keep your spirits up, Viper, all right? Hope to see you looking a little rosier in the morning.
CGNakibe (1:31:35 AM): *w to Karinska* ... maybe I had this place wrong.
Idran1701 (1:32:06 AM): *w* ...The food's good, at least.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:32:13 AM): *Not talking until Jeremy leaves*
Idran1701 (1:33:20 AM): *smiling to the group, he stands, setting his cup down* Hope to see the rest of you in the morning too. Have a good night.
Idran1701 (1:33:27 AM): *and he's out!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:34:33 AM): *w* He's making a good attempt at getting us to stay.
Lithaladhwen (1:35:40 AM): (G'night all. I'll backlog in the morning.)
Idran1701 (1:35:48 AM): (Night, Kai!)
Idran1701 (1:36:22 AM): *she nods, still whispering herself* Maybe he just likes the village, though?
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:37:46 AM): *w* Seems a bit extreme.
Idran1701 (1:38:25 AM): *w* ...What do you think, Arian?
CGNakibe (1:41:36 AM): *w* Still not sure if everything's right here.
Idran1701 (1:44:25 AM): *w, looking between Arian and Lil* Well...what do you think we should do?
CGNakibe (1:44:46 AM): *w* I'm all for finding someplace else to go.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:46:00 AM): |*w* For now, we stay here.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:46:04 AM): *w* There might not BE another place to go.
CGNakibe (1:46:39 AM): *w* You have a point there.
Idran1701 (1:47:32 AM): *w* Yeah...and honestly, I think we could use the rest.
Idran1701 (1:48:03 AM): *w* Even you, Lilium. Evne if you don't actually sleep...
CGNakibe (1:48:04 AM): *w* Also true.
Idran1701 (1:48:05 AM): *Even
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:50:08 AM): *w* Yeah, I know.
Idran1701 (1:53:38 AM): *w* What should we do until tonight, though? I mean, I guess we could turn in early...
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:55:00 AM): *w* I'll look around.
CGNakibe (1:59:01 AM): *w* I'll stay here, if you don't mind. For all we know whatever they intend is already in place here. Or it could be on its way.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:59:17 AM): *w* Yeah.
Idran1701 (1:59:32 AM): *nods*
Idran1701 (2:00:01 AM): *w* ...I'll stay with Arian, if you don't mind, Lilium.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:00:40 AM): *w* I'd prefer it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:00:48 AM): *Stands, polishing off her beefs*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:00:57 AM): Arian, get the tip, please.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:00:58 AM): *OUT*
CGNakibe (2:01:23 AM): I just hope these are just idle thoughts.
Idran1701 (2:01:40 AM): ...*chuckles at Lil's abruptness a bit, before looking to Arian*
Idran1701 (2:01:41 AM): So do I.
Idran1701 (2:02:08 AM): *meanwhile!*
Idran1701 (2:02:27 AM): (Is Lil on the watch for anything specific, or is she just keeping an eye out?)
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:03:18 AM): (Wandering)
Idran1701 (2:03:33 AM): (*nod*)
Idran1701 (2:12:55 AM): *Lilium heads out, and down the streets. In the distance, she can spot Jeremiah still heading out himself, just before he turns down a side road.*
Idran1701 (2:13:00 AM): *Besides that, off the other direction, she can spy a couple of children wandering about.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:15:26 AM): *Glances down the sideroad, but keeps on going.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:15:34 AM): *Also notes the children.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:15:40 AM): *AND DECIDES TO WAIT*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:18:34 AM): *As the kids approach, she'll make to speak with them.*
Idran1701 (2:19:54 AM): *Things seem fairly quiet out here as Lil waits. The children soon come up to Lil, looking at her with a mixture of fear and awe; an expression Lil might be a little used to by now.*
Idran1701 (2:20:38 AM): *There's two, one boy and one girl, both looking about 8-10. Both human, both of them looking a little scruffy. The girl speaks up!* ...Hello.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:22:11 AM): Hey. I was wondering if I could ask you a couple things?
Idran1701 (2:23:01 AM): ...Okay.
Idran1701 (2:26:56 AM): *the boy watches warily, but he seems less fearful than the girl despite his silence*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:29:59 AM): What goes ona round here?
Idran1701 (2:32:18 AM): ......*she looks to the boy, before turning back to Lil* We have festivals...and a lot of people farm...
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:32:39 AM): Festivals?
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:32:43 AM): What kind of festivals?
Idran1701 (2:34:12 AM): ...They're usually fun...we have dancing, and games.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:35:41 AM): Uh huh.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:35:43 AM): How often?
Idran1701 (2:37:44 AM): ...I dunno...usually at harvest time and planting time. Sometimes a little one when there's a new baby.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:39:13 AM): Ah..ha.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:39:20 AM): Do your parents ever talk about leaving?
Idran1701 (2:40:07 AM): *the girl looks wide-eyed, but the boy looks off a little sadly* Oh, no! Why would they want to leave?
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:42:37 AM): Curious..
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:42:41 AM): ..Somethin' wrong?
Idran1701 (2:43:37 AM): ...'m...
Idran1701 (2:44:49 AM): *the girl frowns at him, and moves closer to Lil, whispering* His mom an' dad...they were travelling, and the fiends got them outside town.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:45:24 AM): Ah..
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:45:27 AM): ..I'm sorry.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:46:01 AM): I'll tell you what. You keep an eye around town for me while I'm here, tell me all the stuff that happens..
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:46:14 AM): ..And I'll go beat up some of those demons, make sure they know what they did.,
CGNakibe (2:47:04 AM): (*yawns* Tired tired.)
Idran1701 (2:47:11 AM): (You want to step out, Shaun?)
CGNakibe (2:47:30 AM): (Unfortunately yes. I'm kinda... well, pretty much mentally dead.)
Idran1701 (2:47:36 AM): (*nods* Understandable. :O)
Idran1701 (2:47:40 AM): (Night!)
CGNakibe (2:47:49 AM): (Later)
(2:47:55 AM) CGNakibe has left the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:48:02 AM): Sound good?
Idran1701 (2:48:35 AM): *the girl glances to the boy as he speaks up* ...okay.
Idran1701 (2:48:36 AM): (d20)
OnlineHost (2:49:39 AM): TheWaiChibiAngel rolled 1 20-sided die: 1
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:49:46 AM): (That's either good, or bad!)
Idran1701 (2:49:51 AM): (Good!)
Idran1701 (2:50:13 AM): *Lil can tell the girl looks a bit suspicious...even a little worried...perhaps that he might let something slip?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:50:29 AM): *Raises her brow at the girl* And you?
Idran1701 (2:51:25 AM): ...I guess...
Idran1701 (2:51:56 AM): *she definitely seems a lot more guarded than the boy around Lil, from her expression*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:54:35 AM): I'm not here to hurt anyone, or mess your town up. Just passing through, and I'd like to know what's happening while I'm here, huh? *SmileS*
Idran1701 (2:56:42 AM): *the boy smiles a little back, nodding, but the girl just stays wary* Okay.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:58:01 AM): Now, I'll be staying up at Adrains at least through the night. Go find some good news for me, okay? Might even have a reward for you.
Idran1701 (2:59:15 AM): All right! ...Okay.
Idran1701 (3:05:05 AM): ...Will you be here for the market tomorrow?
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:05:30 AM): What time?
Idran1701 (3:07:37 AM): ...I don't know... It's hard to tell around here...not long after halfway through the day.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:08:47 AM): Hmm..Might be.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:08:58 AM): I'll try.
Idran1701 (3:12:10 AM): Okay. I'll be picking olives for it.
Idran1701 (3:13:55 AM): ...Come on, Dafydd, dinner should be ready soon.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:30:56 AM): See you tomorrow.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:30:57 AM): *OFF*
Idran1701 (3:31:18 AM): (Another d20. :O)
OnlineHost (3:31:37 AM): TheWaiChibiAngel rolled 1 20-sided die: 7
Idran1701 (3:32:31 AM): *as Lil leaves, she can just catch some talking between the two...the girl saying something about "dead skin" to Dafydd*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:34:37 AM): *Lets it slide, for now.*
Idran1701 (3:37:07 AM): *Lil continues on! Walking down the street, things still look close to empty.*
Idran1701 (3:37:19 AM): *A fellow heads into another side street not far ahead of her...and she just catches the sound of some sort of cracking and grinding from down it not long after he passes out of sight.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:37:49 AM): *Checks that street as she passes, too.*
Idran1701 (3:38:01 AM): *...it's empty.*
Idran1701 (3:38:08 AM): *and a dead-end, too*
Idran1701 (3:38:46 AM): *a house on either side, a wooden fence between them, with what looks like a pasture past that*
Idran1701 (3:38:56 AM): (Between them blocking passage, that is.)
Idran1701 (3:39:09 AM): (Not running between the two houses, but blocking off the street.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:39:18 AM): (As in, "Where the hell did that guy go?)
Idran1701 (3:39:22 AM): (Yeah.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:40:33 AM): *Stops*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:40:35 AM): *Looks around*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:40:49 AM): (As in, not in the ally, but in the street(
Idran1701 (3:41:10 AM): *No one else seems to be in sight at the moment.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:41:20 AM): *Down that alley!*
Idran1701 (3:42:32 AM): *Lil heads down the alley. The fence does look jumpable, but it's right near the back of the two houses, and it's nothing but a field out past it; nowhere for someone to be hiding.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:44:34 AM): *INVESTIGATE > GROUND*
Idran1701 (3:46:43 AM): *The same dirt road as in the rest of the village. No blood or anything to suggest foul play, though it seems well packed and solid, not even a clod around here.*
Idran1701 (3:50:20 AM): *Unfortunately, it's far too well-packed to leave any footprints either.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:50:21 AM): *Walls!?*
Idran1701 (3:51:09 AM): *Walls are wood planks, same as the fence. Seems to be local wood too, from the look of it. No doors on either side...a window or two, but closed tight and curtained.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:53:01 AM): *ABOUT FACE*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:53:08 AM): *BACK TO THE MAIN STREET*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:53:17 AM): IM: Something's wrong here. No kidding.
Idran1701 (3:53:47 AM): *it almost feels like someone's watching her as she leaves the alley...*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:55:06 AM): *Spins again, ready to pop her katars*
Idran1701 (3:55:20 AM): *...still empty, not even anyone at the windows*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:57:14 AM): Hmph!
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:57:15 AM): *Hurry!*
Idran1701 (3:57:21 AM): *TO?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:57:39 AM): *Back to the road!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:00:40 AM): *Anyone around now?*
Idran1701 (4:02:27 AM): *What looks like a farmer heading home from the day seems to be coming down the street towards her.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:03:27 AM): Pardon.
Idran1701 (4:04:24 AM): *he stops, nodding to her; doesn't look too surprised to see her* Oh, a new face!
Idran1701 (4:04:27 AM): (Another d20)

Idran1701 (4:05:02 AM): Traveler, I assume?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:06:16 AM): Uh, yeah..
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:06:31 AM): ..I don't mean to be rude or anything, but I saw a man go into that alley, and I heard something and he had disappeared.
Idran1701 (4:08:29 AM): ...Oh? Are you sure? *he glances off in the direction Lil points*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:10:23 AM): Yes.
Idran1701 (4:11:22 AM): *he starts off that way* And he just disappeared?
Idran1701 (4:11:42 AM): *though he seems to be surprised, Lil gets the definite impression it's a bit feigned*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:16:17 AM): ..Yeah.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:16:25 AM): And I have the feeling there's something going on here..
Idran1701 (4:17:01 AM): *reaching the alleyway, he begins looking around, glancing back as he talks* Going on?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:18:30 AM): Yeah...
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:18:37 AM): I mean..
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:19:49 AM): It might be dangerous, you know?
Idran1701 (4:21:19 AM): Well, don't know what to say about that. I've lived here for years, it's always been a pretty safe place.
Idran1701 (4:21:25 AM): Safer than the rest of the plane, at least.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:21:45 AM): Yeah, but things change.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:25:30 AM): I mean, what if the fiends started coming into town?
Idran1701 (4:26:24 AM): Oh, believe me, that wouldn't happen. They won't set foot near enough the hill.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:27:18 AM): Why's that?
Idran1701 (4:29:59 AM): ...Couldn't say. Never really thought about it. Just know that they never have, all the time I've lived here.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:32:25 AM): What if it's been a trick, though?
Idran1701 (4:35:15 AM): Ah, I'm not worried about that. If it is, then we can fight them off. We can be pretty determined as a village when we have to be.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:35:33 AM): Really?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:35:42 AM): Then there must be a good reason the guy went into an alley and disappeared.
Idran1701 (4:36:22 AM): Hmm. Must be, but damned if I can see anything here.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:37:44 AM): *That seem faked?*
Idran1701 (4:38:01 AM): (d20!)
OnlineHost (4:38:11 AM): TheWaiChibiAngel rolled 1 20-sided die: 18
Idran1701 (4:38:32 AM): *Well, it must be true in some sense; Lil couldn't see anything either, after all.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:38:58 AM): ..I..I know what I saw..
Idran1701 (4:40:03 AM): I'm sure you did, miss, but doesn't look like there's anything here. Maybe you're just tired.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:41:11 AM): ..I don't get tired.
Idran1701 (4:43:03 AM): Well, maybe the plane's just getting to you. Looks like you've been here a while, after all.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:43:17 AM): ...Yeah, maybe that's it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:43:21 AM): ..Thanks.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:43:24 AM): Sorry to bother you.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:43:27 AM): *Begins out*
Idran1701 (4:44:31 AM): *as she leaves* Oh, it was no bother. Maybe I'll see you around again, if you stick around the village!
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:45:23 AM): IM: Hopefully, you won't.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:45:35 AM): *IF there's a conveniant shadow, she'll put her hood up, and slip into it.*
Idran1701 (4:46:36 AM): *The lighting on this plane's a bit odd, but she finds a dark-enough shadow. For now, at least, as long as it doesn't decide to lighten up again.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:50:42 AM): *She'll look for another one to head for in either direction, and wait for McFarmer to come out.*
Idran1701 (4:54:58 AM): *He soon emerges...glancing around himself, presumably for Lil, he continues on down his previous route.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:00:23 AM): *Lets him pass, then tries to dart, ninja tyle, into the next.*
Idran1701 (5:04:59 AM): *Lil seems successful enough; at least, he doesn't seem to have noticed her. The dirt streets seem to be helping, muffling the sound of her movement as she heads down the road.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:05:19 AM): *She'll follow him until the following gets bad, or he does something zany!*
Idran1701 (5:07:25 AM): *He eventually seems to arrive home - someone's home, at least - and heads in, closing the door behind him...though not well enough, it looks, as it slowly swings back open.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:08:08 AM): *Ninja TO THE DOOR!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:08:12 AM): (Next to it, rather.)
Idran1701 (5:09:32 AM): *She can just spot him ducking into a doorway at the far end of the room...and it's not long after he's out of sight that she again hears that cracking and grinding noise.*
Idran1701 (5:13:52 AM): *Coming from Mr. Farmer, of course.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:14:05 AM): *Spins! KICKS THE DOOR!*
Idran1701 (5:17:02 AM): (A bit confused on my part; where is Lil spinning towards?)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:17:27 AM): (Had her back to the wall, so she's turning to face it, whilst kicking the door open.)
Idran1701 (5:19:25 AM): *She spins! The door is kicked open, with no reaction from inside.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:19:56 AM): *Like, nobody there?*
Idran1701 (5:20:37 AM): (Indeed. Besides the room the farmer had gone into, there's another room off to the side, but it seems like no one's home at all.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:22:33 AM): *Charges in, and kicks that open! Why? Because she's on a goddamn door kicking spree.*
Idran1701 (5:23:02 AM): *The door is already open, so there is no real need to kick it, but who am I to deny a good door kick?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:23:28 AM): (If Nebv was still up, she'd understand the joke.)
Idran1701 (5:23:55 AM): *Yet within...it's empty, with no other exit from the room. It looks to be a fairly sparse bedroom, with the only other bit of furniture a small nightstand, a waterglass upon it.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:24:35 AM): Come out, come out, whereever you are...
Idran1701 (5:25:28 AM): *there's no answer*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:25:43 AM): *Growls*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:25:45 AM): *And heads out*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:27:29 AM): *BAck to the inn, it seems. Weighing options.*
Idran1701 (5:29:07 AM): (And cut for the night? :O)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:29:56 AM): (Sure!)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:30:09 AM): (Right now, one of two things seems likely)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:30:14 AM): (One: BREAK TOWN)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:30:22 AM): (Two: BREAK SOUND BARRIER (Whilst running!)*
Idran1701 (5:30:26 AM): (:D)
Idran1701 (5:30:28 AM): (Any theories?)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:30:43 AM): (The town is polarized one way or another.)
Idran1701 (5:30:49 AM): (Polarized?)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:30:57 AM): (Either they're so good that the demons want to stay away, or so bad that the demons want to stay away.)
Idran1701 (5:31:09 AM): (*nod*)
Idran1701 (5:32:20 AM): (Anyway, XP! Just 100 base for tonight, but an extra 150 for Lil for investigatory actions. :O)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:32:28 AM): (No Door Kicking bonus?)
Idran1701 (5:32:38 AM): (We can say 25 of that is door kicking bonus.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:33:07 AM): (:D)
