Who: Slick and friends
When: Day 1, still morning...
Where: Apartment A
What: 8D;

[SO

while the rest of ya'll were trying to do sensible things like learn about the situation, Slick decided to take himself and his godmode to go kill everything as a nice little stress reliever

UNFORTUNATELY he didn't figure out that he'd been power capped.

So after a rather short and unpleasant exploration, Slick stumbles back to the apartment, bleeding heavily. Mostly from a dozen or so long claw marks on his back and a few heavy, deep bites on his shoulders and arms.

Whoops]

There's no blood, but most of the body looks like it's here. The cuts are too neatly done.

Do you have a small knife or dagger on you, by any chance?

I'm afraid not, but I can manage a delicate cut with my blade.

Can you cut some of these tiny roots off?

[after dropping some dead lizards off, Yuri wanders in. right shoulder/collarbone area looks like it was clawed pretty thoroughly :D;]

What the...

[also following, though more slowly since one leg was bitten. Also his hands are gnawed up...]

Ah... Its head was in the other apartment...

[ La la butchery work. Not looking up. ]

How was the other room?

[not far beneath the skin you find a nest of skinny roots]

Well, we got dinner, and probably enough to heal Slick.

Cut further, it could just be the moss trying to grow back.

[no blood huh?] Did you two happen to run into whatever took the head? [doesn't look up either]

[ Boy am I glad I'm wearing armor; GOING DEEPER. ]

[mooore roots. they are making this body obnoxiously difficult to cut

however as you hack and slash, you might notice that the pretty color changing flower on top of the 'moss' has curled in upon itself]

I think I saw a head in the other room. But we had our arms full.

Perhaps the creatures we caught intended to eat it? They couldn't have done this though...

These plants are quite insidious...

Stop, stop. [gesturing to Flynn, eyeing the flower]

[ Pauses. ]

What is it?

It's the flower that took up the blood. If I'm right, every one of those color changing flowers has a body under it.

[looks up finally, double takes at the other two] Sweet O- [ff NO NOT INVOKING GOD NAMES HERE] What happened to you two?

[even if you stop the flower still looks like you kicked it's puppy]

If we're talking about what could have done this... Couldn't it have been Slick?

... I said we caught dinner, right?

[ Cutting off some of the roots to take with him. ]

[ Also a bit absently. ]

Good work, Yuri.

You weren't kidding. [dryly, standing to go check Yuri and Link's wounds, tests to heal - and nothing] Nope, nothing. Still dry. We'll have to sacrifice to Dellen to get those taken care of.

If he can precision cut better than a sword, then he could very well have. But if he did, all that moss and the flower grew right after he left it behind and finished growing by the time we got here.

He should be able to, though he didn't say how specifically he's been limited...

[rubs a hand over his face gingerly] I'd be careful about taking any of that with us. [nod to Flynn]

I am of the hopes that a root will do us no harm, and that Rita may be able to help us get a better idea of what we are up against.

[ Standing up and turning- whoa. ]

... It looks like dinner put up a fight.

Just made us hungrier.

[eyeing Link] In any case, you two should be taken care of, and we'll need to properly clear out all the plants from that room as long as nothing else is alive in there.

We should head back for now and see about making those exchanges.
