That's it for now!

[oi_theoi]

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!))

[ 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]

[andiwantitnow]

Hmmm, while I do appreciate the efforts to simplify my task here, this is hardly suitable between warriors such as ourselves. [ takes a knee on his chest, pressing down juuuuust hard enough to make breathing a smidge harder than one may like ]



You really must promise me a rematch, without such unsuitable distractions.

[freelancetogoodhome]

[GOD RIDER WHY SO HEAVY >O god breathing and speaking is hard here]

I... would accept... such a fight.

[andiwantitnow]

Good, good!


Aaah, I wonder how long the spell lasts . . .

[reversedemperor]

[ Excuse me that is my thing you are sitting on. ]

Would using a spell to counter the last one from a former master work?

[andiwantitnow]

[ kneeling on it, really. ]



Hooooh? I should think it could, if cast properly.

[reversedemperor]

I'd like to be his master again and I don't mind using one of those seal spells to get him back to normal.

[andiwantitnow]

So you'd be Cayden then, I take it. Well met.

[andiwantitnow]

Say, how does that sound to you, Knight? Is this the one you wish as your master?

[ lets up juuuust a smidge ]

[freelancetogoodhome]

[oh god breathing!!!!!! just enough to gasp with all the knightliness he can manage in his desperation]

Yes!

[andiwantitnow]

So be it, then!


[ Standing up and giving Lancer a little space ]

[reversedemperor]

You okay, Diarmuid?

[freelancetogoodhome]

[breathing... breathing... studying Cayden]

... I... yes... It's... you're really you?
