Except for Trump, who for some reason thinks that attacking Thez is a good idea (as though he didn't notice she's a Devil).
Luckily for the both of them, his sword bounces harmlessly off some form of invisible barrier in front of her.
"Sorry, did you want some?" she offers Trump some of Barry's face.
>>2959>repeating last post>BarryDAMN IT ALLEN
STOP
FUCKING
THE TIME LINE
>>2965>Allen?Wait, what's wrong with killing Barry? If you knew him, you'd want to eat his face too.
So yeah. Last thread hit bump limit, so here we are. We don't have to start yet, I just had to eat Barry's face. I'll probably do it again before the night is over.
>Implying Trump ever suspected her to be anything other than a devil
*Trump looks over to Tracy*
Little blue pony, you have lead a life full of wickedness and sin. But today is the day you redeem yourself. Help me slay this demon in our midst
*looks to torcil*
Good man, you too may be of great service to justice and to the universe. Seal this demon, and send her back to the hell from whence she came!
>>2966The flash? He probably got here through fucking the time line
>>2970>Good man, you too may be of great service to justice and to the universe. Seal this demon, and send her back to the hell from whence she came!Nah, I'm good
My character needs a bolter
>>2970"Eh, heheh.. If that's what you're going to do, Flashy, then I guess I'll be by your side.."
*draws knife*
*hugs leg*
ITT: OP spends an hour trying to re-write his game plan after Trumpadin attacks Thez.
No, OP tries to compensate for restaurants that can't give accurate times on takeout orders. ~_~
So then, Trump, are you SURE this is what you want to do? I mean, I can roll with it,....
>>2977>>2976Just make Thez have an excuse that Trump would find convincing for ripping off Barry's face
>>2977Ah, I know that feel...
>Thez is most amused at the suggestion of defeating/sealing her by the way. She dispenses with any pretense of Urri.
>>2979Well, he's a twat for starters,....
>>2979>*leg-humping slowly starts*
>>2982"A twat? Explain yourself Demon! I am as dead as you are. I can keep up as long as love of football fills my heart!"
>>2972"Can you at least help get this pony off of me?"
>>2983NOPE
>>2985GM Can I use some Thot-b-gone on tracy?
>>2985Thez chuckles.
"Better. I though I'd have to thump you just for trying to give me orders! Barry, well he's an insufferable bastard of amazing proportion. He regularly and consistently falls short of his job expectations, knowing that he won't have to pick up the slack nor will be disciplined for it. He is a burden on those around him, is utterly contemptible, and he has bad breath.
[1d20 = 6]>>2985As for the pony, hmmmm. There might be something I could try,....
>>2985>[leg-humping intensifies]>>2986Fucking try it! I dare you!
[1d20 = 3]
Thez's tail whips out and grazes Tracy's shoulder drawing a thin line of blood.
Tracy begins to lose coordination and is having trouble standing.
"Oh dear me, you don't look so good. Here, let me help you."
Thez grabs Tracy by the shoulders. I'm assuming Tracy is attempting to resist?
>>2987*Trump lowers his shield from protecting his chest section to protecting his legs*
"Folly thinking you could every thump the Trump. Tell me, what job expectations does he fall short of?"
>>2989Pic related
>>2990I just stand aside, hoping to not get dragged into this
>>2990*grabs leg with all four limbs*
>Glare_so_murderous_that_I_cant_find_the_reaction_image_that_illustrates_it.jpg
[1d20 = 10]>>2991You really want me to explain the finer detail don't you?
>>2993"Odd, that usually works. Hmmm. Oh, duh!"
>>2992"Damn it man, Football is a team sport. It requires work as a team!"
Thez hits Tracy in the lower back (stunning fist) and she momentarily becomes stunned (meaning, she drops anything she's carrying and lets go of anything she's holding.
"You should be thankful, normally when I poison people, I rape them, but I'm not feeling it right now."
>>2994"If ye be of anything other than vile stock, yes"
>>2997"Oh, I never said I WAS anything other than vile stock, but you can rest assured that he had it coming."
>>2998I guess that's what I need to know
>>2999Okay.. I'm done being pathetic....
>>2999Tracy chips a tooth. Nice trips tho.
>>3000"Are we still gonna fight?" she asks excitedly.
>>3001Thez helps Tracy to her feet. Then looks back at Trump.
"Are we?" she appears behind him. "Are we?" She appears upside down, in mid air, sitting indian style in front of him. "Are we are we are we??" she beams.
[1d20 = 13]>>3002*Trump casts DEFENSE for Tracy*
"Tell me she demon, are we?"
"YAY" She assumes a curious stance, her knees bent outward to the sides, her hands by her face in the posture of a peace sign. On her face she adopts a goofy expression and starts drooling bubbles.
"Take all the time to prepare that you need," she says with the same wide-eyed, goofy expression.
>>3005Trump is now confused
>>3007Are you kidding? Thez LOVES to fight, but doesn't often fight things that can survive more than one hit. Because of Trump's level and experience, he can. Maybe even two! But he doesn't know any of this.
*doesn't often get the chance to....
>>3008Trump knows he is dead. And that which is dead, may never die
>>3010Oh, and if you're confused about her stance,... that's Crab-style.
*hobbles to feet and pull another knife out of seemingly-infinite knife-cozy, with maw*
>>3010>*spoons*
>>3012>triple-wielding,... I'll allow it
K, so Trump is buffed with OFFENSE and has his sword and shield ready, while Tracy is now brandishing three knives and has DEFENSE enabled. Thez still has a funny look on her face, is still drooling bubbles, and hasn't moved other than her eyes occasionally shifting back and forth from Trump to Tracy.
>>3014>still staying off to sideAnyone got food?
Some of the guards on the wall have taken notice of the scene, but they seem more entertained that alarmed or concerned.
>>3014not yet
*hobbles to hind legs and pulls out two more autistic movie props out of knife-cozy*
".. A little poison won't stop me. I've shrugged-off more blood-born infections than you could count..!"
>>3014Trump readies a HEAL spell, to be used either for himself or for Tracy as necessary
"Blue Pony, do you wish to impress me? Then help me take down this she demon!"
Trump lurches forth
not to land an attack, but to see how Thez responds, and to encourage her to make a move
>>3015"There's still some of Barry's face,...."
>>3018"..Unf..!
*doki doki*
[1d20 = 16]
With one of her peace signs, Thez grabs Trump's sword by the blade.
>>3017The poison only lasted for a few minutes by the way, you're back to normal.
>>3019Ewww, I meant real food
>>3017"Like HIV?" Torcuil scoffs
>>3018Trump is personally convinced that Thez is actually the one holding him hostage in the game, that he is actually immortal, and that he can defeat her in open combat, but thinks that there is a better place and time to do thisTrump smiles, as if to acknowledge the sexual innuendo of her grabbing his sword. "Very well, please forgive my impropriety. Years in the service have made me a bit suspicious"
"blue pony, I spoke too quickly. You may stand down"
"Awwww,...." Thez is disappointed. "Well shucks."
>>3026I still want some actually food
>>3024"If it's a disease, I'm already immune to it, by now."
She looks at the soldiers standing watch. "What the hell are you staring at??" she shouts, before realizing she's still all purple and nude and such. "Whoopsie!"
she says before putting her mask back on. The guards exchange glances before one steps away from the wall and out of sight.
>>3026With this response, Trump is disappointed in his not taking an opportunity for a learning experience, but he continues onwards to the city
>>3027"Torucil, may we speak in private?"
"I assume you mean cooked food, so yeah we should probably check this place out," she says before following behind. "I hope there's a brothel,...."
>>3034*unmanly screaming*
Feel free to talk amongst yourselves as I describe.
As the group approaches the gate, you can see a sign that says "Welcome to Port City! A port city that would have a much better name if Barry wasn't such a douche and causing others to compensate for his lack of discipline and professionalism."
The city its self is several miles long and wide. Trade shops, lodging and services, and a bustling bazaar are all located near the entrance to the City, while residential and governmental is further back.
>>3032"I can cover you if you are want for money when we get to a pub..."
*looks to make sure Thez is not listening, then whispers*
"So as you know, we are in some sort of limbo in the afterlife. This one here, Thez, is a real demon. She could only be an agent of those keeping us from reaching the green fields of Mile High. We are already dead, and so we cannot die here. But if we could injure that demon - disable her for long enough - we can escape the trance she has left us in, and from those malevolent entities that seek to keep us enthralled, and to our Valhalla of Sports Authority Field"\r
>>3036*Trump begins to wonder if Barry really did have it coming*
Situated near the entrance to the city is a booth that says "Information center", and standing at the booth is this guy. Thez wanders over to ask for directions.
>>3035>Wearing a kilt for easy access
This is the future you chose.
>>3037>I thought I was talking to ThezCan we do names now?
AANNYYWWWAAAYYY
Eh idk
tell you the truth I don't remember much Before(tm)
Possible? Yes
Likely? eh
The thing about Barry is that he works in another department from me, but its a department that I used to work and am exceptionally skilled at. Barry knows that if he does less than his best, the company will call on me to essentially clean up after him which I did, because though I could have said "no", it would only have hurt our productivity come monday, and I am notorious within the company (literally, they call me a nazi,... the irony) for being unwilling to allow unnecessary down time). Yeah, I got OT for it, but I had planned on scripting this session much more meticulously and carefully, but was unable to.
>>3043This is what happens when you blog-post in an RPG..
I know that feel though...
>>3043I'm really fucking confused
Thez addresses the big-nosed fellow. "Excuse me man,... does this down have, like, prostitutes? I'm asking for a friend."
>>3043If this explanation had been given, Trump would have immediately put down his sword. But he's a Paladin, so he wasn't going to let a face of a seemingly innocent person be ripped off without comment>>3042I am banned from using the namefield by Atlas. No really, I am>>3042"Don't you see? We are being held prisoner here in this dimension"
>>3039Trump feels as if he recognizes the man as an ally
\r
>>3046"I'm sorry sir, but there is a 5 shekel charge for information," he chuckles and rubs his hands.
"5 shekels for directions? What kinda town is this?"
"I told you, its 5 shekels for information," he continues to rub his hands together.
>>3047Appreciated, but the way the dialogue was worded Thez wasn't about to comply. She has her pride you know,.... ^_~
>bannedLMAO
>>3048>Slides in, tripping on rockI've got 25 shekels for a full Q&A of how ever many questions you want
>>3047>bannedKEK
EEE
KEK
HOW?
>>3050Yes, yes of course. Anything for you my good goy,... er I mean, honored traveler. What can I help you with?
"He says holding out his hand expectingly."
>>3052>I signal discreetly to Thez that they are indeed fake shekelsAsk away Thez...
>Hands over 25
>>3051Thez, in Urri form, leans over to Torcuil and whispers: "Ask him where the hoes at."
>>3050>>3049something something "must post under anonymous or name and capcode NO EXCEPTIONS" was the rule. Something about starting drama>>3052"Good sir, could you tell us where we are?"
>>3053>Giving a kike fake shekels
They can smell money, you dunce! What do you think those noses are for?
>>3054Excuse me goy, but
BITCH WHERE DA HOES AT
>>3053Thez wasn't expecting that. "Oh,... here man," and hands the shekels to the fellow. "So yeah, I was like, wondering if there's like, prostitutes in this town. I mean you've got lots of sailors so I figured,...." she trails off as the fellow busies himself inspecting the coin. Its of an unfamiliar type (to him) so he carefully pours over ever detail, completely ignoring Thez.
"Uhm," she says as he starts pulling out a pair of scales and a water glass.
"Yes yes, just a moment."
[1d20 = 18]>>3058Oh fuck
I roll to meme the scales
He impatiently points toward the government buildings, not even looking up from his task. Using a couple of weights, he measures the weight of the coins. He narrows his eyes at this, and then marks the glass of water with a spot of grease, and then drops one of the coins into the glass.
>>3059nice timing and rollAfter marking the glass a second time, he then pours the indicated water into yet another glass, with measurements on the side. The whole process complete, he smiles.
"Yes of course, what was it you wanted again?"
Thez meanwhile, immediately starts off for the whores.
>>3060"So where exactly are we?"
"This city is an open port servicing all manner of mercenary and entrepreneurial operations he means pirate town. People come from all over to sell their stolen,... I mean totally legitimately acquired goods and exchange them with others or for services, which are available aplenty".
>>3063He chuckles at the mention of a library. "Oy vey no, there is no demand for books here, other than as black market, I mean commodity trading."
