Adelon: Steeling the Faith (High-Casual)

With her decision to stay with the group for now made, Amuné paid the rest of them a little more attention. It looked like they were getting ready to move again. Ethan suggested she be in the middle of the group, but while it might have made sense to him it was the very last thing she wanted. If he wanted to watch her then he would walk with her -- after all, Wyth was very good at watching her and keeping her safe. She didn't think of the wilderness as frightening, but the people, they were. Most of the group didn't even consider that a girl of ten couldn't walk as fast as they, not even Adrian. She had to push herself to keep up, and even then she ended up lagging behind. It was just as well. With most of the adults in front of her she could see what they were doing, and that was reassuring. The Ydran woman with the black leopard had moved off somewhere, and that was fine with Amuné. She hadn't decided about most of them. Ethan was closer, maybe closer than she wanted. But she did need to thank him, didn't she?

"Um." It took a second try before she managed to find her nerve. "Uh, thanks...for the meat, I mean, and...y'know. For saying you'd help. Even if Wyth wouldn't hurt me, I guess you don't know that." She paused. "He's really not scary, you know. I mean...not if you're not trying to hurt us." Even now the great cat paced at her side, tolerant as ever of her fingers tangled in his coarse fur. Amuné fell silent again after that at least for a few minutes. Her thoughts, however, were anything but quiet. One of the people had said there was a beach, hadn't he? So that meant a body of water. Could she have made it all the way to the sea? That was a long way from home, according to her daddy's maps. Was it far enough to be safe? She didn't know if anywhere would really be safe. Nor had she been given any instructions beyond running. Tears sprang to her eyes unbidden and the girl tried to wipe them away unobtrusively. One step at a time, wasn't that what Mommy always said? For now, she was heading for the town, and if she could she'd take flint and steel before going off on her own again. After that...she'd have to see.

The Last Embers (Dark Steampunk/Fantasy)

I neeeeeed more posts for Omestriiiiis. *flailing*

@Lovejoy Synthetic meat? O.o What.

Interesting that they don't want trainees to feel at home. Well hm, maybe less so for trainees...maybe once they're back from their first mission they get given better quarters? You'd think they'd treat Inquisitors a little better, even if it's adversity building character for trainees until graduation.

Ziotea probably didn't like the place out of principle, more than anything else. She learned to live wherever and so in comparison the Seminary was probably quite nice. Did workrooms have decent light? Of course the cold wouldn't have bothered her that much. I'm surprised it bothered Ragnar so.

Intrigue in the Fifth City - A Fallen London RP

@Hekazu A heads up. I've been about, but my muse is being recalcitrant and for some reason this rp just doesn't want to be written. I think Schroedinger may quietly vanish. My sincere apologies, and also to @Templar Knight.

Pariah Online | Season One

@Inkarnate I've been waffling. The long delays don't help, and I did sort of die on people for a while -- but given that the rp nearly died first more than once I just kept lingering. I would like to keep playing Elian...if I can get her to talk to me after so long. We'll see, I guess. But I am definitely about.

Pariah Online | Season One

I'm about. Probably. *lurks quietly* Also who said I took a break? I stepped back off the server, not the rp. But it is true I've lost a lot of connection because of that.

The Last Embers (Dark Steampunk/Fantasy)

I am...bouncing between highly anxious and just ineffective. Things get done, but only slowly.

@Exit Reviews are best done when awake, yes.

Adelon: Steeling the Faith (High-Casual)

Well I'm sick so...might not post for a few days even if it is my "turn". @.@ trying to get my head back on straight.

RPGC #16: It takes two... - Voting and Critique

@AngelofOctober Oh definitely. And I can, and do. But the sort of reworking that goes into professionally edited and published works gives me chills. In the end, I write for fun and enjoyment.
