"Do you need us to go with you? Also before the hunt we need to stop by our room I have a few....items to get for the hunt."
"Well, I need someone to go with me to talk to my grandma, but it doesn't have to be you guys if you have things you need to do to get ready. Although there will be time later on. The snipe hunt isn't until after dinner. Still, maybe Krays would like to come with me. I bet he'd like to meet my grandma," she said, smiling at her kobold friend.

Asch Redgrave |

"Well if you'll be ok with out us we have some work to do for the hunt. To make sure we all come back alive" Asch says with a coldness in his voice that contrasts the fire in his eyes.
Basically Asch is picking up some bane bullets.
12 fey bane bullets
36 human bane bullets
24 magical beast bane bullets
24 monstrous humanoids bane bullets
12 undead bane bullets
6 construct bane bullets
6 animal bane bullets
Also a few other items:
Ring of protection +2 Asch/Amada
Ring of forcefang Amada
Ring of Ram Asch

I'd suggest Spin, but since I didn't take Kam to talk to her, I won't push you too.

Well, I'm trying not to pressure him, and Ryleh can be a bit intimidating. :)

narrator |
Jiminy accidentally steps on something that crunches under his feet. He looks down and notices crystal shards on the ground by the target.
"Uh-oh. Hey, Spin, the shot looked good, but it looked like it didn't go off. If the spell had worked the bullet would have dissolved. There's little bits of crystal all over the floor..."
He looked thoughtful.
"You know what? I think I know how to make it work though. But it'll take a lot of power and I won't be able to keep it running for long. So we'll wait until just before the hunt. I think I can copy Ephebe's abilities onto you temporarily...just the ones involved with shooting the Caster. I do have limits after all," he said with a cocky grin.

"I'd be honored!"Krays says with a smile.

Spin |

oh come on, now! New school, new group of friends, craziness happening everywhere, one of the cute girls imprints on him, and the sixteen year old kid is supposed to be excited to go meet her family? It's been a day! :D
Still, I'll see what happens… Sense Motive 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (14) + 16 = 30.
As Ephebe's brother points out that he had in fact not gotten the caster to work, Spin picks up on something in the way Ephebe invited 'her friends', and a flush rises on his cheeks and neck.
OH CRAP! She wants me to go with her to meet her grandmother!
He clears his throat, looking to stall, "Uh... um... well, I guess I could go with you, 'Pheb... if you want me to..."

Ephebe blushed. "Ummmm....you don't have to...I mean....Krays has already agreed and...I just...I mean, no pressure, right?....er....I don't want to make you uncomfortable....any more than I already have..."
It's about a DC 5 Sense Motive check to figure out how she feels about him after that inarticulate outburst. :P

narrator |
So let's see how Mr. unobservant does....Sense Motive: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21
Apparently Jiminy is very observant today...
Jiminy's jaw about hit the floor as he saw his usually calm and rational sister floundering for words and otherwise acting like a normal teenage girl. "No way!" he thinks. "This guy? For real? Now? Oh,crap." Calculates chances that he'll survive if he makes it clear that he wouldn't take it kindly if his sister should happen to get her heart broken and doesn't like his odds. Ephebe would gut him if he threatened her guy. He narrowed his eyes and watched the shapeshifter suspiciously.

Fei, of the Sun Soul |

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (13) + 25 = 38
Fei's eyes track around the room, watching the suddenly different behavior and body language, but otherwise remains quiet and still. :)

Now let's see how Mom reacts... (:<
Already know dear. She did run out of my class if you'll recall. Unlike some people I have the wisdom to know when to shut up. ;)

Asch Redgrave |

Asch's eyes widen slightly when he hears Ephebe. "Well life's not worth living if there is no one to live it with." He thinks to himself. "I wonder if Spin is even aware...wait....the gym did she tell him maybe that's why he seemed weird....er"

So in other words she has to run off to another world and hang out in a club to get your attention? No wonder I was bored for most of my life.. *eye-roll*

Looks back n' forth between Spin and Ephebe, and ponders. Then realization dawns
"The more the merrier", he says to Spin, with this 'oh I gotta see this' look on his face

Spin |

Realizing once again that he's unintentionally airing Ephebe's business, his countenance goes from uncertain to charming in a heartbeat, "Of course I'll come. Always happy to meet more of your family, 'Phebs."

Hahahaa, I love that trick; the dad of a girl I dated in high school tried that with me, except he tried to be extra badass by just driving us out into the back woods. Boy was he pissed when I outshot him 4/5, and then had to correct him on the right way back to the truck when he got lost. Took me years to figure out he had been trying to intimidate me. Hopefully he learned that don't work with yooper kids, 'cos we all grew up tromping around in old woods and we can all shoot. :-D

Not all of us. They tried to teach me to shoot when I was twelve. Gun knocked me flat on my butt. (I was a really small twelve year old, and it was not a good gun for teaching children with.)After that I outright refused to even pick up a gun. Lots of tromping around in the woods. No shooting. :)

LOL! Okay, I stand corrected. :-) But still, they did at least try to teach you to shoot at a young age.
Wait. You're a yooper? Huh. Small world!

Spin can feel a sense of relief from Ephebe that he isn't upset with her, and she smiles at him, a real smile not an 'I'm pretending everything is okay' smile.

Ayup. The U.P., where even the girls know how to shoot (except me). :) I've mostly broken myself of the 'eh' thing, although it does creep in when I'm not aware. And it drives my husband nuts that I can't shake the accent. Frequent rants on a boot being an article of clothing, you don't talk aboot things. :P

Krays |

Looks thoughtful as he ponders the question
"Well, Spin, be respectful. I've only heard of dealing with chromatic dragons, which are a bit more..caustic than other dragons. Key thing to remember though, is that dragons are apex predators. They, no matter what environment they are in, are the top of the food chain. They are usually very wise and intelligent, but can also strip the flesh off of most living creatures easily. Just keep in mind that as such, they probably see us as little more than talking food..."
Looks over at Ephebe, briefly
"Well...not all dragons do...I must admit I have very little knowledge of gem dragons of any kind...just show respect, and you should be ok."

"We're not like that at all," she said, sighing. "Look, as a species, we're in this mess, being hunted by the other dragons, because we wanted to let the other races govern themselves. Culturally speaking, we're supposed to treat other beings with respect and we DO NOT eat sentient creatures. Honestly, Grandma hasn't even killed anyone in a couple of decades, and wouldn't do that unless someone was really, really evil and a danger to the family. Be respectful, after all she is my grandmother, but neither of you are in the slightest bit of danger," she said firmly.
