[OOC] LANTERN (redux)

[Virgil]

Getting to a new post - let's hear a "HUZZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA - WHY, WHYYYYYYYYY?!?!" for those types of moments when you forget to save your original work and need to restart the entire halfhour-long process! Hip-hip!

[Virgil]

Also,

Mokley: "Slenderman BEAMS in your direction!"

Average Character: "Shiiit...you got me; Cards?"

[Mokley]

@Virgil Oh noooooo that's the worst feeling. x.x

Whenever I lose a post I resolve to rewrite it better than the last! ... but it still sucks.

Slenderman is an excellent idea. >:3

[Virgil]

@Mokley Yeah, I think the worst part usually comes down to dedication. After I've lost the first draft to build off of/revise, then I just suddenly feel really out of it.

Of course I still need to make my first-drafts good, but that's beside the point >_).

[Girlie1Bomba]

@Mokley gm post tomorrow boss?

[Mokley]

Shore yup yup! If anybody's holding onto a post, best give a shout! :D @Cairo@drewccapp@Virgil@Girlie1Bomba@WittyReference@c3p-0h@baraquiel

A thing has been posted!

NPC speak-colors have changed in an attempt to not be similar to currently-assigned PC speak-colors. xD

[baraquiel]

Will post tom!

EDIT: TOM! DEFINITELY TOM!!

[Virgil]

...Well that escalated quickly. o_o)

[Mokley]

(Watch out for any NPC named Tom!)

[drewccapp]

Huzzah for a slightly sloppy attempt to negotiate. Lets see how this goes. :)

[Mokley]

@drewccapp great attempt, but seeing as Gale's comment was directed at Izzy who is on the machine behind her (so Elliot can't possibly hear it), they are in the air while Elliot is on the ground, Gale is two seconds away from skewering the Kith boy, and the waves crashing and griffins screeching are quite loud, his attempt will probably go unheard and unfinished. :(

Edit: for Elliot, Golde and Ifor, in case my post is written in s confusing way (I know I try to be dramatic and lose clarity in the process haha):

Suddenly a flying machine appears in the air above, dropping a net on the Griffin beside Ifor and Golde. The same machine bolts fast toward the second Griffin near the obelisk. The second Griffin takes out the machine while two more machines arrive high in the sky. These two attack the second Griffin. One more machine flies in, carrying Gale and Izzy (it's dark so they probably only look like shadows), high overhead. They're talking but you can't hear anything but the engines, screeching, waves crashing, and they're too high/far away. They dive suddenly, and Gale is about to throw a spear at the boy. The boy and girl do not seem concerned or afraid, but pull down their hoods in preparation for something.

[drewccapp]

Ah alright, I shall make some edits then to adjust for that and he is likely instead going to touch the obelisk to force the opposing sides to separate. I should have considered the noise. I'll make my edits at some point in the next couple days.

[baraquiel]

Hey doods. Sorry sorry sorry I wasn't able to post anything these ff days, a lot of unexpected stuff has been happening irl. Will try to post tom or this week :3

[drewccapp]

Alrighty I have made my edits and we shall have to see the consequences of that edit! I'm pretty excited about the results.

[Virgil]

Ifor's Motto: Never stick around a bad situation if you don't have to >_).

[Mokley]

@Virgil Good tactic! x3 Just for my own reference, where exactly is he running? Referencing the map, the obelisk is right on the easternmost tip of the island. Did he run past the obelisk, around the bend and is now heading northwest toward Echo? Or did he clamber over the rocks to run across the mushroom field, perhaps toward Woondaly?

@baraquiel Ifor's post makes some assumptions on Golde's part -- if you'd like to do something different, just let us know how his attempts don't succeed! :D

[Virgil]

@MokleyEcho's the way! In all honesty, I'd actually forgotten about the locations on the map, and was just running off of the general outline ~_>) - thus, I forgot to include better directions as to which way he was heading with his 'luggage'. He's just following the beach for the time being - not really thinking about where he actually wants to go (probably because I didn't think about that part >_< ).

I made sure to speak to @baraquiel beforehand through PMs (partially for ideas), but I don't know if the final product is entirely to their liking yet; I'll find out soon though! It's easy to get away with saying the moon hides behind cloud-cover, but you really need to know what the other character is capable of before trying to lend such a heavy hand in their fate.

[baraquiel]

@Mokley@Virgil I am Pancake Fluffle and I approve that post. Expect something from yours truly tom :D

EDIT: i hate myself. Gonna post on monday instead. apologies :3

[Virgil]

@Girlie1Bomba This "Biter No Toucho" must be a very popular landing point; is it the first of three bases out on the high seas?
