go figure. I made that post, and then we had an emergency on site. :(
Still tied up. (small fire in a unit on a refinery.)
But I am not going, if it seemed that way. :)

oh geez, I hope things calm down for you. Sounds like it's been a wild couple of weeks.
Glad you're staying. :)
I'll be on a holiday until next week and might not be able to post.
Everything else after that.

Yeah, I'll echo Atia, good to hear you're staying, bud.
Just as a heads up, Thursday & Friday of this week, I am *super* busy - if things happen that make Atia need to be botted, please do so.
Will be gone because I'm a bridesmaid in a wedding - holy crap, there is so much bridesmaids are expected to do. My wedding was livestreamed on Twitch and everyone was in pajamas. More than that seems like way too much, haha.
Lol! Pajamas! That's pretty cool. :)
Got to love the lower cost weddings.
I would have been to embarrassed to do a wedding in PJ's.
Yeah there's no way I could've done that either. But I gotta admit it is pretty wild. Way more guts than me for sure. :)
Well, it's not like people were wearing inappropriate pajamas - nothing to be embarrassed about there. :P
We were doing a live stream on Twitch to raise money for charity (Extra Life event) & since all of our friends and family were either there doing the event with us or watching...it just worked out really well & was perfect for my partner and I - and we raised $3k that year for children's hospitals. Wins all around!

Well done, if anything the childrens hospitals need it. :)
Yeah, that is pretty cool.

Sorry for being slow on my end, dealing with plumbing problems in my house and contractors who no show appointments and my head hasn't been in the game, lol. I will get a post in today eventually.
Hey, you just take care of what you need to, Fern. House issues are frustrating and I know how hard it is to get your mind on anything else especially when the contractors don't show up and do their job like they say they were going to. So annoying.
DM, I know exactly how you feel.
The site I am working at, is bringing in 2000+ workers for 3 months work.
We have to vet them, give them site access badges, and then site access badges for their vehicles.
On top of all that, if we have emergencies, we are the point of contact for outside agencies, as well as primary communication node for onsite fire and ambulance.
So yes, it has been hectic for me for the last couple of weeks.
I'll actually be around on Thursday & Friday now.
He continues to work the pump, trying to do the work of two, while flagging in both strength and endurance.
Ahh, I feel bad for Dreamer - sorry he got stuck with the weak wizard >.> lol

dont be. i got a weapon in a different place that could come in handy
@Des - thoughts on the poison dilemma, for your consideration.
Scourge clearly just ingested the love potion and looked at Cass.
Cass could use this to our advantage - get the poison into Scourge's hands to like, prove his love or whatever. Something that makes it difficult for Harrigan to say that it was willingly given to Scourge so it's hard to justify Harrigan punishing Des for Scourge's behavior.
Let Scourge take the fall for it, if possible.
Just putting ideas out there! If you're working on your own angle, don't let me mess it up. :)

To bad the poison wasnt in sharkbaits soup tonight.
Not trying to get him killed, just would have been funny if scourge got the poison that the captain was wanting sharkbait to take
And the fault would entirely be his.
I know, right? That would've been greatness. :)
Ahhh, that feeling when you catch an egregious typo outside of the editing window.
Man, Cass, it must take a lot of work to do the Harrowing reading stuff. I commend you on that one.
it takes a bit but its fun too!
Going through kind of a scary family emergency right now so I'll be a little scarce for a bit
This old man got beat down by the heat and work stress. I got home and fell asleep Thursday. Friday I tried to be a good husband. Slept for over 12 hours Friday night, anyway.
This kind of pattern is new to me. My apologies. Let's see if I can catch up, or if I have to just skip to current . . ..
I know folks are busy on weekends sometimes, I wanted to hold off and let Des respond to Terry before I moved on -- I'll post tonight if I'm able!
I was waiting on Cass. But I can work up a response shortly.
Sorry! I’ve been super busy the last few days, thought I’d have time to catch up yesterday but I didn’t, I try to work something in to tonight!
Terry cocks his head a little to one side. "Really? Well, some of the kids used to hand things off to others without them knowing it in order to avoid punishment. Any of our friends have quick hands? It would be horrible if we could accuse, say, Syl or Tam of stealing it, and then it is found on them . . .."
That's clever. Interesting idea.
I think the two folks who were good at sleight of hand stuff bounced from the game. I bet one of the NPCs we're friends with could help, though.
There are always other things than violence that can solve a problem. Even when the problem is a promise of violence to come.
Syl has set a precedence for stealing things to use on other people for her own gain with the love potion now!
The idea of Syl finding where someone might stash the hemlock (locker, hidden somewhere near her hammock, whatever) does make me feel like this, though :P
Man o man I hadn't thought of that. Yes, that would be horribly bad. Horribly bad. There would definitely be one fewer barbarian in this game if that were the case. And last I checked, I'm fairly certain there's only one to begin with. ;) Ugh. (Kermit's totally great by the way. I do a mean impression of him and Miss Piggy by the way. Absolute fun). :)
I'll be back tonight from my holiday. Can probably try the sleight of hands.

Oh, I didn't realize you were actually coming back. After your post about quitting, I figured the "I'm going on holiday" post was just a reflex for letting all the games know you'd be gone.

Hey Atia, now's your chance to mingle with the cook.

I've been waiting for this moment for so long.

"I'm going on holiday" meant i'm stepping away and decide/answer later.
Now i can say i want to apologize. It seems i urgently needed that holiday^^
Will try to catch up and get a post in tomorrow.
Oof, Terry. The dicebots need to get back to loving you soon!
The fun part is that I typed out that interaction before I ever saw the die roll! I was hoping the die roll would make it one of those too cute to dislike moments. Oh, well!
I only had to add the bit about retreating into the rigging.

Sorry about my absence, got a bit overwhelmed by life should be back now
Sorry about my absence, got a bit overwhelmed by life should be back now
no worries imo. my life is in total upheaval at the moment so I understand being overwhelmed. ❤️

No worries. I hope you can get through it.
Anyways. We have 2 avenues now. Should we go with the Cass method or Terry/Ming's?
I don't love the idea of Cass getting Scourge to have one of his lackeys steal it. That gets it too far out of our control for my liking.
I'd prefer to do something like planting it and going from there - something that gives as slim a chance as possible for any of those dudes to use it, especially smarter ones like Syl. It'd still have to be one of them, I think, but we'd be offloading it in a way that doesn't make them immediately aware that they possess a deadly poison.
Re: the Harrowing - Atia can definitely work on Kroop since her chewing him out landed the way I had hoped.

Oof. Posted right when the DM was in the middle of posting. If you want to know more, the post is based on lord-mayor Jilia's... complicated relationship with tieflings.
Uh, guys?
Terry has no sleight of hands training. If he tries to plant evidence on anybody, he's probably gonna get caught. Won't produce the desired outcome.
Yeah, I had thought about that while I was laying in bed last night. We can still DO that plan if one of our blue allies would be up for it. I can also have Atia ask Kroop ways to get rid of that sort of thing without giving away details.
