In your last post Limey, I believe you mentioned that Jay-Jay was going to unleash fire magic on the wolves below, which Heroes did make mention of in his post. Also, I do believe Dot left a 'ghost' figure that Jay-Jay's demon could actually see as well if you wish her to remain outside while Daisy continues her wolf-soul-harvest. There are certainly things she could do. I imagine Heroes simply did not want to control your PC, and assume what it was that Jay-Jay would do next in the chaos. Especially because one person outdoors stayed outdoors (Daisy), and two that were outdoors went back in (Nestor and Gabe).

Honestly, I completely missed the mentioning. I'll give it another read and try and get a post up then.

Tough old week and all that, which is why I had the thought that I'd perhaps just missed it.

Exams and break-ups are indeed, the poop.

Gabe never went outside. He went to pick a room. Speaking of, I should probably post. I'm having issues thinking of what to write. Any suggestions?

Hello all,
I'm getting ready to head out for the holiday weekend and won't be back until Monday. First off I want to wish you all a happy weekend, and a pleasant Memorial Day if you're in the United States. If you have been in the military, I want to thank you profoundly for your service...thank you!

@LimeyPanda: When I wrote my last post I went through several re-writes in an attempt to do something meaningful with Jay-Jay that wasn't forced or puppeting your character, and I couldn't do it. At least at the time anyway. Please feel free to move Jay-Jay back with the others, or if you'd prefer to wait, I can try and think on something else to add after I return from my weekend excursion. (See my suggestion to TheNewYorker below)

@TheNewYorker: Off the top of my head, you could have Gabe move to help Siya and Atticus. Or perhaps Gabe has some angelic means to help the injured Reginald Hoyle, or the mortally wounded Aislinn Hoyle? You mentioned that Gabe had expended all the ammunition in his sidearm, so you could interact with Semyon regarding a reload, or something of that nature. Actually you and LimeyPanda could collaborate in a chance meeting of your two characters during the chaos of the battle, and the retreat towards the shade gates. This last part is my favorite of the ideas. Kills two birds with one stone, and get some cool interaction going. Your call of course.

Enjoy, Heroes! And yes, many thanks! And happy Memorial Day! And lovely weekend! And...Grainsy, is there some reason I can't see your last post...?

EDIT: I should have a post up this weekend, then I'm out of town for a few days, too...But I'm open to suggestions for getting Daisy to a gate? Getting her there shouldn't be all that difficult, but I'm not sure she has any real inclination to leave at the moment. Suggestions? I'm leaning toward just general fatigue -- or having the dead wolves force her out of cover, but that seems hackneyed...

HA! XD No worries Dot - you can't see my post because *derp* has been my default mode these past couple days, and I put an OOC post in the IC, and had to edit it out.

As for how to get Daisy toward the gate room? (no one has gone through a gate) What if she simply accomplished all she could of her wolf-soul-saving before it simply became far too dangerous for her on "that side?" Fatigue yes, but I understand it's not terribly safe for her either because of the 'things' in death that have it out for our favorite Reaper. As for getting her toward the gate room? Well surely Artie knows how to track Veti, no? All up to you, of course!

And for you Dot, and Heroes - both of you have a great few days away, visiting and/or traveling and/or simply relaxing and doing not a single thing at all!

Thanks, Grainy! I think, between you and Derren, I've got a pretty simple idea of how things'll work. UNFORTUNATELY, I spent way too long on another post, and I'm off to bed shortly, so I'll have to get it up tomorrow morning.

Looking forward to what you finally put together there, Dot. ;)

Quick note to say I will be gone starting tomorrow, and back tuesday in the evening, Eastern Time. I 'might' have the opportunity to write something up while I'm away? But likely not.

This is a good plan, I like this plan.

>< I have a really hard time making those posts as short as I'd like them...

Well since we don't really have a hard time reading and enjoying your posts Dot, I'm going to say that your posts are just about the perfect size every time. ;)

Eta: have a great time Derren! And looking forward to hearing from you Limey!

Today is Memorial Day for those in the U.S. This is simply a moment to offer heartfelt thanks to all those here among our players and our lurkers and anyone who just happens to stumble across our humble RP OOC, who have ever served in the armed forces. Whether in the American forces or in your home country, thank you for your steadfast service, your commitment and your sacrifice. This cannot be said enough.

And for those who did not personally serve in the armed forces, but who had a father or mother, grandparents or uncles or aunts, brothers or sisters or cousins, husbands or wives or dearly loved friends who did: thank you too, for all the love and support, encouragement and faith that allowed those people closest to you to continue in their service. No soldier, airman, Marine or sailor can go it alone. And so today, I'd like to honor your love and commitment and sacrifice as well, that helped make that service possible.

Working on a post currently.

If I don't get any word from the New Yorker, I'll make Jay-Jay do something tonight.

I took a break for the weekend, I got pretty sick yesterday, luckily I was able to fight it.

I have a feeling that Gabe and Jay-Jay are in pretty different places. I might just have Gabe go get his other gun and meet everyone at the shade gate. No problem. I'll have it up by mid-day tomorrow, hopefully.

Well I hope so Serge Darling, your last IC post was over 2 weeks ago. :(

Hello there everyone, I am back from my great 4-day weekend adventure.

I hope you all have enjoyed yourselves while I was away from RPG, and I will second Igraine's vote of extreme gratitude to those who have served the citizens of the United States in the Armed Forces. We will never ever be able to return the favor of your sacrifice.

As for Pieces, I thought a lot about the RP while I was away, and I have come to the conclusion that we should move into the beginnings of the final segment of our little adventure. Never fear, there is still plenty of RP left, just wanted to give a heads up that the next segment of my posts will be leading us towards that end. I hope that everyone is able to catch up IC as much as possible. The pacing might pick up, hopefully because we're all intrigued enough to get right back to writing as things happen. My next post will be coming in about twelve hours or so.

Eerily quiet...

Anyway, how is everyone today? Are there any new posts coming down the pipe?

I'm working on a Jay-Jay post at this time. I'm doing a bit of a juggling act, but I'll have her heading towards the Shade gate by the end of tonight: although at some point, I'll be looking to get some input from you, Heroes.
