P2e - Threshold of Knowledge

I'll get a post up to move us to Teacher Ot soon!

P2e - Threshold of Knowledge

Thanks for checking in. It has been quite a while of us cooling our heels.

For the sake of the story, would the group like to pick up at Teach Ot's and have an aside that Saur found the baker to make aments? @Digizel @patientbean

@clanjos@Vertigo@rush99999, it looks like real life is taking its toll. Do you have any preferences for the question above?

Firefly - Second 'Verse

Alright @Gunther@Bugman@Xandrya, check the Google Chat for a link to a crew-wide JP. We'll get an intro paragraph written up then we can jump in.

Hey gang, checking in as it's been a few days. Do you all want to play out going with Saur to the baker? Would you rather all meet up at Teacher Ot's office?

P2e - Threshold of Knowledge

Scene:

As Elaeshor quit the company of the common folk, he could hear laughter erupting, most certainly at his expense. A glance over the kitsune's shoulder would have confirmed as much had he seen the way the fisherman imitated the 'elf's' coat tails swishing. Still, the laughter didn't sound all that mean spirited; after all, the pair of jesters didn't really know Elaeshor, did they? Did anyone?

Alandri looked up from her work before lifting the next bucket to her cottage, which for a gnome, was quite a handful. She watched Saur during his explanation, interjecting with 'mmhmm's and 'oh's as necessary. Once he had finished his tale, Alandri mentally tallied the bevy of fish from all the heroes and looked back at the kobold with a sincere expression. "Yes, I think that's a fine way to make amends," Alandri conceded before handing her bucket to Saur. The live fish gaped at Saur, then at the sky, presumably happy to have been spared Jenk and his pitchfork, though feeling very much like a fish out of water.

Fleur's walkabout had been an informative one. She learned that the city itself was a large dais with the school, the Magaambya, at the center of the various rings of canals. As such, she gained a good sense of direction for getting back to the school, and more importantly, to Teacher Ot's office for their lesson. She remembered, in the cool of the morning, their sponsor bidding them to come back by midday for their lesson. Fleur arrived just in time to hear Elaeshor's query to the group at large, between the tripkee, the goblin, and the 'elf.'

"Surely she does not... expect us to be back to fish for her tomorrow as well, now does she?"

End Scene

Storyteller's Aside

Saur has his fish in a bucket, Fleur has rejoined the group. What happens next?

P2e - Threshold of Knowledge

No problem, as everyone can see, I've had a bad week or so. Work has cranked it up for me here, and it hasn't let up.

Still, I'll get an update out tonight for everyone.

Thanks for the heads up @clanjos and @Vertigo. Best of luck to both of you, and we'll be here when you resurface.

Look for an update tonight gang!

@PatientBean I wrote your character as leaving after breakfast; after Fleur realized there would be "Manual Labor" involved. See this post: roleplayerguild.com/posts/5556197

Feel free to retcon this. I just posted a reason, but there could be a new and better reason she was called away for the morning.

@PatientBean Fleur can jump in now! They've just finished fishing and are looking at what to do next. :D

@Digizel Thanks, it's good to hear how people feel about the relaxed speed. Maybe we can organize specific scenes to be relaxed and some to be more deadline-driven.

Saur's thoughts and feelings here are exactly what drive us to do this! Saur is a member of a clutch, now. Why don't you have him appeal to the rest of the group as to his plans? Maybe they support him and suddenly it's a group scene as opposed to a one-off.

As far as Alandri is concerned, have Saur ask for/buy a fish as she's going back and forth with the buckets of fish from the bank to the shack.

Alright all the latest post is up!

Before we jump back into our agreed upon two-day rhythm, how did everyone feel about the relaxed pace? Was it nice? Was it too long? I know the game ground slower due to real life, but I want to see how people feel about the wait. Personally, I like 2-3 days between GM updates, but that may just be me!
