Finally got this up—I'm sorry for the delay. School started for me today, so the last parts went a little more sloppily. I hope you don't notice it though, haha.

I tried to create a situation for Luciano that showcased his skills and badassery without making him appear ‘overpowered’. As you can see, he did not end up too well. :P I will reveal his fate in the next post—but even if he makes it, he will go on other ways for a little while now (keeping that promise!), so now it'll only be the three of them to do next night's mission.

You can react to the unfolding situation as you wish, also control Emerico if you need to. I hope I also handled your characters well. Tell me what you think!

:O Dun dun dunnnnn...

Very much enjoyed the post! Didn't seemed rushed at all. Apologies for my delay in response as well, a holiday weekend here in the US and I've got a professor who decided to give us an exam tomorrow coming off of it >.> Anyways, I will have a reply up tomorrow for you after I get done with my classes. I can't wait to see what fate has met our friend Luciano, and what else may be in store for the others.

Real life comes first! Thank you for having the time to keep up this wonderful RP with me. I much appreciate it. I should have a reply up tomorrow!

I originally wanted the post to detail the entirety of Luciano's lone-wolf ‘mission’, but it kind of stretched too long and took too much time (seriously, it seems like I chose the worst day to write this with everything that interrupted me...) at the end, so I left it at half. On the flip side, there are more details and interactions both important and unimportant, hopefully you will find them entertaining to read!

Please, do go on with the night mission for the three. I'm sorry I could not quite catch up, I swear I will do so in my next post.

Once again, my apologies...and enjoy!

Awesome post! Sorry for not being around for so much as an OOC 'hello,' I've been working every night this week on top of homework and classes, so I've been in over my head the past several days. I'll have a reply up sometime this weekend after I get all my ducks in a row from this crazy week! Again, sorry for the delay, and I hope you've had a swell past few days yourself!

Finally up, again I am sorry about taking so long! I hope it is suitable, figured this mission to be more of a stealthy one after the events of the previous, and I didn't want to drag it out too long so I hope I didn't end it too awkwardly. I also didn't want to play out Emerico's reaction too much since he is your character and you would know his emotions better. Hope everything is going well for you!

Good stuff!

By the way, off-topic but I've just started playing Bioshock Infinite...and your profile pic/signature are from there I see? ;o I would've never imagined!

Indeed it is! My favorite video game of all time, I do hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Furthermore, I hope it causes you to think and question as much as it made me. One of those games where you are just amazed at the deeper level of effort that was put into the story beyond just the gameplay. My signature is from the DLC, which is also a wonderful addition/end to the bioshock series.

A-ha, that is good to know! I'm still pretty early in, currently distracted by another game...which is also the reason of my delays with posting. The game is the excellent and extremely addicting 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors which I have been wasting much of my time on trying to unlock all those pesky endings and finally find out the truth!

With that, I also apologise for taking so long, I admit it was rather...unwise from me to play through the weekend as I am getting bombarded with tests this week. I will try to get something up by the end of the week at least. I hope you're not too disappointed in me! I have had an absolute blast with this RP so far and definitely want to keep it up!

Ah, no worries! I completely understand both wanting to lay in all weekend with a good game to entertain and also the busy schedule that comes with academics. Take your time, I'll still be around :)

I report, I have successfully completed 999! Freed from this addiction, I now had the power to finally conjure up a reasonable post for you. Once more, I apologise for the long wait and I do hope this one alleviates things somewhat—I think it turned out rather well!

It seems it is now my turn to apologize for going MIA for quite a few days now. I had quite a busy last week with work and two exams for school, but I should have some time during this week to get a post up so that we can get this thing moving again!

Ugh, coming off of a bout with a stomach bug. I was ill for a few days and admittedly laid up in bed doing nothing more than watching TV and feeling sorry for myself for the better part of 3 days. I'm over it now for the most part (I sincerely hope, at least) and ready to get back to thinking on our story.

I read over our last few posts this morning and before maybe jumping back into writing a post I wanted to see maybe what your thoughts and ideas were for the plot. I think we've got some strong characters to work with, but I'm wondering where we might be taking them really. Luciano's now completed his solo task of ending the foolish thief, and the others are assumed to be pursuing matters as if he were dispatched of. Should they reunite? Or should they continue on their own for a while longer until something else brings them back together in a different fashion? Of course they now have information on when La Volpe will be in Florence, so a time skip could occur.

Did you have any thoughts in particular on where to go from here? I just wanted to get some point of reference before I begin on my next post, that way if I need to set up some next checkpoint or series of events, I can do so!

You raise good points—I've been also wondering about the exact direction of the plot. I think they could very well reunite now and then we could do that time skip as well. Though I'm still thinking about the so-called bigger picture...like an overarching theme or mission for the characters.

Either way, I hope you have recovered fully from that nasty illness! Best wishes!

I will have a post up today then. I suppose I will just bring them all back to their common hideout and throw in some plot stabilizers before ending it, allowing you to reenter with Luciano how you will. Then we can move forward with the time skip and get through the La Volpe bit. I suppose for now sticking with meddling our characters into the overarching plot of the Borgia-Auditore scheme will suffice until we can come up with another major plot driver. Figuring out other characters to cause some trouble with would serve our purpose if we can create a big enough theme with it.

Anyways, I'm just rambling. I'll get that post up and we can brainstorm more on it, take inspiration as we will.

Hey. I'm sorry it had to come to this, but...could we suspend our RP for now? As I'm on a break I thought I'd have time and inspiration to write a post, but now that it's almost over, it doesn't seem likely. And with school starting again, it'll be an even greater difficulty. This is why I think it'll be better now that I tell you this. It doesn't mean that the RP is over for good, but I don't want to get your hopes up when I can't deliver, and of course I also don't want to flake.

Once again, I'm very sorry it came to this. You're an absolute joy to RP with and I enjoyed every moment of our adventure. I wish you the bests both in writing and in other endeavours!

Life happens, and of course comes first. I understand, and will always be around should you want to continue this story or perhaps venture down another path. I wish you well in your studies and in anything else you should take on, and look forward to speaking with you in the future! :)
