I'm sorry. Both for the girl and for your friend.

We would be assuming, with this scenario, that you might be misdiagnosing yourself, under the circumstances.

So you'd cough up a minnow and we'd go on.

Sorry about your friend.

Nautipus · 04-17-2008, 01:59 PM

He's not my friend anymore(looong story involving threats and firearms), and I didnt know the young woman, I was stating the greivousness of the wound.

I'll go ahead and do that then, though it will wait until I am away from here, just not enough time.

tolkienfan · 04-17-2008, 02:00 PM

I just wanted to say that I'm really enjoying reading your posts, Nauti and Sis. Exciting and well-written!

The last sane person · 04-17-2008, 02:18 PM

Hah! Nice posts Naughty and Sis! May I remind you that for the most part my Merry Bandito's ARE still there, use them as you wish. It's just down three members, which should leave round about ten or so. They are there to be the useful little plot devices.

**Mari** · 04-17-2008, 02:33 PM

Oh, I thought they went off to mourn you and their friends

BTW, Sas, do you have something planned?

The last sane person · 04-17-2008, 02:34 PM

Nope, they were assigned to escort the Teacuppers on their quest. Those are their orders, death or no death they will fulfill them. Yep, I run a good paramilitary troop.

**Mari** · 04-17-2008, 02:36 PM

So... where should we put them? They can't be in the camp, because I made sure there was no one there before talking to Acally. They aren't downstairs either. Should we put them with the searchers?

The last sane person · 04-17-2008, 02:40 PM

No, they are up topside to be used by Sis and Co to get them out. They are doing what any decent troop should do, they set up a perimieter around the cave where you are treating your various patients. So, they are on the edge around the cave doing guard duty.

How would we contact them deep in the cave? Maybe a really loud noise.

Hold on, it will be arranged.

klatukatt · 04-17-2008, 05:17 PM

After playing Darkwatch, I have an overwhelming urge to shoot banditos on first sight.
Those buggers carry shotguns and are annoyingly accurate. Plus, they are hard as rock to kill.

Sorry bout the bandito rant. Darkwatch made me paranoid. Don't say "kegger" around me either. *shudder*

The last sane person · 04-17-2008, 05:19 PM

Hahaha, rock on. But these Banditos are on your side, so rejoice!! They might even lend you their shotgun..

Edit: Katt, I'd feel more comfortable if you were the one to stumble onto me and Sir Stoned. At least you have some plausible idea as to what to do with a severly injured me, never mind Boulder Brain.

Nautipus · 04-17-2008, 05:23 PM

Boulder Brain is gonna be used for bait, when I find him.

The last sane person · 04-17-2008, 05:25 PM

And we two can go fishing with it when I recover. Looks like my Bandits will have to head back and get a wagon for our wounded. No WAY you or I could ride horses (Bahar, RIP) after this for at least two months. And that is including superhuman RPG abilities...

Nautipus · 04-17-2008, 05:27 PM

Yeah, I've really screwed myself up here, but at least it was a cool water scene.

The last sane person · 04-17-2008, 05:30 PM

Yes, so it seems yours truly and yourself are going to be very well acquainted with the wagon by end of this, not to mention Acally. Though correct me if I am wrong, it seemed to be more of a poisoned flesh wound than a completly dissabling series of wounds?

Nautipus · 04-17-2008, 05:32 PM

The card could be pulled that the poison residue may cause crippling muscle spasms.

Always fun.

klatukatt · 04-17-2008, 05:36 PM

Woot! Crippling pain and agony!

I'll find you, Sane. You both got carried off by the orcs, right? Perhaps one of our group could lead them into an ambush?
Whatcha think?

The last sane person · 04-17-2008, 05:41 PM

Sounds groovy, just make sure that you can keep your herd together long enough for the actual ambush...

OH! And also, I think there are some of the nasties with the Kris' that jumped Acally in here too. Perhaps they're the ones that grabbed us?

That and didn't Gray say he burned off the poison? Or do you mean if it spread in the blood stream?

klatukatt · 04-17-2008, 05:49 PM

Grey did burn off the poison, but there may be lingering effects.

Gods-damnit, what are these nasties and why are they fighting with orcs and, most importantly, how do we stop them?

WAIT! I know! While someone, possibly Sas, gets the orcs away from Sane and Hector, I'll come up to help them, but the nasties will be there guarding (are they invisible?) and then I'll deal with them.
