That's it for now!

Who: Everyone
When: Day 112, late morning and on
Where: Headed Northward
What: A bit of normalcy

[Having switched routes from the preset course that was previously taking everyone southwest, the HQ now drifts steadily northward on manual navigation.

If one sticks their heads out onto the balcony and looks back, they can see the shape of a great feathered beast, her blue, green, and red feathers gleaming along a strangely serpentine body as she glides down on wings that dwarf the HQ. A few blasts of wind and a deep rumbling sound buffet the building, vibrating it a bit as she lands in the distance, followed by a haze of red shapes that rise off her and spread out over the area that the HQ once occupied.

There may be a tense moment while one waits to see if any of those red spots in the distance change course to pursue, but after maybe about half an hour of watching it becomes clear that for the time being none of those particular lizagons are interested.

The HQ drifts on, the jungle moving by below like a sea of green. It seems for now the HQ can finally have some peace. What will you do with the rest of the day?]


((ooc: A MINGLE TO BRING US BACK TO NORMAL PLAY. The HQ will be traveling at about 20-25 mph and take at least 4 or 5 IC days to clear the jungle, so in that time everyone is free to go back to regular posting! We'll be doing a more thorough summary and announcement stuff later on to catch everyone up to where we're at. Thanks to everyone who participated!))

[immediately changes the direction of the lance's spin and brings it back down to break the bones in his wrist. There is some internal struggles going on here, but he seems to be losing the fight]

[no_hero]

[...... oh. well. that. definitely hurts. guess you're getting a shout of pain while his now completely loose grip drops that gun]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[there's a brief moment of hesitation before he kicks Kiritsugu in the stomach]

[no_hero]

[GDIT. doubling over as the air leaves his lungs but quickly trying to turn that motion into a GET THE FUCK OUT OF RANGE motion]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[going with the trying to stab the lance through Kiritsugu's heart motion]

[andiwantitnow]

[ OOPS AND THEN LANCER WAS HIT BY A PONY ]

[no_hero]

[... okay. getting mooore out of the way, recovering his gun and wrapping the arm with the broken wrist around his abdomen, coughing a bit.

this feels familiar, like deja vu]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[WTF PONY NO REALLY WTF -- rolling to his feet to identify this target]

[andiwantitnow]

Ho there! Lancer! She's found something else unsavory for you already, has she?


Why don't you tell me the terms, and the King of Conquerors will put himself between you and your goal.

[freelancetogoodhome]

[eyes moving around the room again]

... To kill as many civilians I can. My own death is forbidden.

[andiwantitnow]

Haaaah, that's even more tedious than the last one. Maybe it will be best to just pummel you.

[freelancetogoodhome]

...

[welp probably going to be heading back to attack Kiritsugu since you're still talking]

[andiwantitnow]

[ NOPE HERE COMES PONY AGAIN 8D ]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[knowing that you've got a gd pony allows him to dodge the fuck out of the way, but it unfortunately puts him further from his target >T damn it rider]

[andiwantitnow]

[ Pony is pressing the advantage!! and Rider is going to sword him good if he gets the chance ]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[dodge dodge dodge... STABBING YOUR PONY NOW]

[andiwantitnow]

Hah!. That's enough then, partner. [ pony sparkles out from under him and he lands with a heavy thud ]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[LETS TRYING TO RUN DOWN KIRITSUGU AGAIN THEN]

[no_hero]

[OH C'MON.

POTSHOT O'CLOCK AT THE LANCER SERVANT WHILE TRYING TO GET QUICKLY AWAY]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[welp canon says he can block bullets with his lance idek lunges at him]

[no_hero]

[THAT IS CHEATING SOMEHOW ad well fuck, sure isn't going to manage to get out of this unscathed, though definitely going to try to make whatever hit as nonlethal as possible.]

[andiwantitnow]

[ what if though broad side of sword + back of lancers head??? ]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[well since he was concentrating on twisting the lance in Kiritsugu's side, he will probably stumble to his knees at that, head ringing with the impact]

[andiwantitnow]

[ plants a foot in his side, trying to knock him onto his back ]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[there's a certain level of indignity to this that he should resent but his head hasn't cleared yet so he's definitely toppling]
