This thread begins the next leg of the game, where GM (likely unsuccessfully) teaches of the wonders of rare-meat. Yes, I know Trump IRL likes his steak well-done, and to me that alone is evidence of controlled opposition. I still support the man, but dammit. Rare meat is the finest you can ever taste, satisfying immediate/basic hunger needs better than well meat, but also satisfying more primal urges and evolution. Remember, meat is only unsanitary if it is old or processed through a slaughter-house with poor quality control.
Enough about meat, lets get back to the game. Infernius is attempting to Leeroy Jenkins at the orcs, except that he has to climb a rope ladder to do so (cloven hooves = slower climbing). Tracy mulls about a very closed for business city that has cannons on the south-face, not yet realizing that unless she wants to go Nightmare (and thus ethereal but also glowing-in-the-dark) she's SOL.

>>24369"FUCK!!"
*I pray to Rockwell for a strong wind to blow away the smoke*

"... Th-they'll be okay...?"
*carefully gets up, before breaking off into a charge*
>>24365"Flashy, wait for me!"
*charges after on all fours, with full pony speed*
>>24368He's really fucking wielded out by the scene. He thinks it's a sign of mental illness, like she's stealing someone else's children because she can't wait on her own. It's Tracy, so that's to be expected, but the fact remains that he doesn't want to be shackled to an insane person, so he tries to pretend Tracy is sane. There's just no way he can take the ring while she's doing that"We can set up a space heater.... If you wanted a dog, you could have asked.."
He gives up trying to think of responses, and leaves the stables
>>24373As the smoke blows away, Baldy can be seen atop the roof of the Sticky Wicket. "Inhospitality aside, this has been more enjoyable than anticipated." He looks at his severed hand. "I'll have to get that looked at, but I suppose I'm still way ahead against the 'house' eh?" He says with a smirk.
Thez runs up next to Infernius and yells "SPOOODER!"
At the call, baldy's appearance wavers a bit, and his skin crawls all over its self. For a moment, he looks like a dark-elf covered in miniscule crawling. "Oh my, this is unexpected! Time to go then!"
D> smokebomb, chameleon power
>>24375Well.. she is insane.. and hormonal on top of that..*closes distance quickly and grabs around the waist*
"... don't go..." (still flustered)
>>24376"reeeeeeeeeeeee." *summons uatchit grabs thez*
"he not get away!"
>>24379*hot panting for a bit*
"Ha.. I'm just fine, Flashy. Are you okay though?"
[1d20 = 7]>>24378Good move, its not quite over with that one.
T> spot check
"Over there, dropping between buildings!" Thez points, <whoof>
[2d20 = 21]
"Well shit, you're looking different these days."
D> smokebomb
T> stunning fist
>>24381*flys to the far end of the alleyway in an attempt to cut him off*
>>24380"Not really. No. I'm baby daddy to a space heater that also feels the need to go find eggs of a random species as well. How the hell do I manage to get cuckholded in this setup as well?"
The area Thez indicated is filling with smoke, but from it she calls out "I hit him, help me cover the area. Just fall on top of him!"
Its all in the dice's hands now
[1d20 = 12]>>24386"f-fall? okay anything for you thez!!!"
*jumps on the niggerelf*
Infernius makes contact with part of him, a limb to be sure.
Between Thez and Infernius, they are able to hold him steady as the smoke dissipates.
"Oh lovely. I trust you'll be taking the other hand then." He drones as apparently the jig is up.
>>24385>cuckholdedCome on, man..[confused pony noises]
"I.. I just wanted to replace what these babies lost.. Thatt doesn't make our foal any less important.
When I nurse these eggs.. I can't help but feel like I'm doing something good.. something that could help me be a better mother when our foal arrives.."
*holds abdomen*
"
Nothing is more important than our foal.. Flashy.."
You know that parenting with the egg you may have had too do back in k-12? Think of it like that, only it actually feels serious. >>24391"SPOODER!!!" Thez seems mad, and baldy's skin recoils at her exclamation.
I need to make some smoke bombs..
>>24390never did the egg thingIf it'll take up all of her time then yeah"Uh... Okay?
Tracy, I feel like I've never understood what you want."
\r
>>24394"I'll explain later. ROPE! LOTS OF IT!" Thez calls out as the Gestapo makes their way to the alley at the back of the Sticky Wicket.
"DON'T let go of him!"
>>24395>what you want".. I.. I only ever wanted.. to be a mother. To raise a family of my own. I'm not sure I understand either, but it's the only thing I ever wanted."
>>24397Looks at her sort of confusedly
"Alright... I am sorry to bother you. Carry on"
He continues walking away
>>24398That should be *he turns around and walks away*
>>24398"Wait, Flashy."
*Tugs on shirt*
"I wanted to show you.. This ring I made."
*holds out ring*
Congrats Infernius, that quick thinking with Uatchit saved the day. I had him pegged for getting away, but now he won't.
>>24400"That's impressive craftsmanship, little pony. You made this yourself? Does it do anything besides look pretty?"
>>24402"Y-yeah.. It allows the wearer to avoid damage as if he had Evasion.."
*presses ring into palm*
"I made it for you, Flashy.. So you wouldn't get hurt.."
>>24403its custom, re:
>>24403>>24404The Gestapo, per instructions wrap baldy in a ridiculous array of bindings, such that his limbs (that aren't cut off) are quite restrained.
"More rope! This one is slippery" Thez glares at baldy as she says it.
"Oh come now, after all this time, you're going to be so negative?"
"Moar!"
>>24406>>24407>>24408does geas work like it does in the anime?
>>24410>In animeI'm not sure what you mean. Its a compulsory mind-control spell. The recipient is welcome to act however they desire, but certain actions result in consequence
>>24409Psssst, she's trying to keep Trump safe from harm, to what limited degree she can outside of literally stabbing people,... which I'm sure she'll do plenty of. Since he doesn't have rings (she noticed, and considered) she's obviously paying more attention than she lets on. Psst.
>>24405"D'aww... That's so sweet"
Looks at her with a bit of reluctance
"I tried to find something for you... I couldn't find anything. That sand dweller only provided these"
Hands keened letter opener
"It's not... Magic or anything... But think about it. If you kill someone with a sword or knife, where's the edge in that? Stab someone in the eyeball with a letter opener, now that's edgy. It's also innocuous, so you could be caught with it and people wouldn't think it's a weapon."
Trumpaladin immediately regrets aloffering the letter opener since it's so obviously not comparable, but he knows he's in a tight spot and has no true comparable gift to offer
>>24411when you say consequences what do you mean?
>>24414Tracy graciously accepts letter opener and inspects the edges, clearly just happy to receive it from him.
"Thank you very much, ~Flashy"
Put the ring on. >>24415Meaning, if the recipient acts outside the Geas directive, they experience consequence (depending on lesser/greater Geas)
>>24416Trumpaladin has the expression of a trapped animal. He decides just to say it:
"All exchanges are quid pro quo. Nothing is free. If I take this ring, what do I owe you?"
"Hey, I'm still here," baldy says, jovially, if otherwise restrained.
>>24418Really? Okay."Would you.. *kicks soil nervously* ..like to go for a walk with me tonight?"
