It's not sweet enough, no matter how much sugar I put in. But I need the caffeine.
I fell asleep briefly at Exalted last night while Melzer was running stuff with other people. Awesome. *rolls eyes*
Anyway...
So we returned to Greyfalls, most of us undercover and
sabrielrose right out there as Lady Ragara Aret, returning home in triumph. We started making cracks about what she's been doing while she's been away, and were saying she's been consorting with Anathema.
herod_the_nut, to me: Yeah, she's been consorting more than you have lately.
Me: Well that's YOUR fault!
herod_the_nut: I only killed him once!
So
sabrielrose is explaining to the Satrap of Greyfalls where she's been, and the Satrap mentions Staudiss, head of the Immaculate Hunt, and his opinion on Sam's absence:
Cynis Tuwenna: Staudiss has been shouting heresy.
sabrielrose: Staudiss shouts heresy when someone walks down the street with their ankles showing.
So Kohn goes wandering round Greyfalls in search of spirits or elementals or demons bound to Ledaal Emon. He doesn't find any of those, but he does find a nemissary. So he follows it back to a tavern. Once inside, he can't find it, but he does see another nemissary. He sits down and has a drink. The second nemissary goes for the back stairs. He tries to follow. The barkeep calls him on it. He botches his Manipulation + Socialize roll. Barkeep drugs him, sends a wench over his way. Kohn is griping because it's not the female body possessed by the nemissary.
herod_the_nut: She doesn't have that something special I'm looking for in a woman.
sabrielrose: You mean being dead?
herod_the_nut: I'm allowed to have odd tastes. I'm from the North!
A battle with two nemissaries ensues. He turns himself into an elk, tramples them, and goes bolting out of the tavern, with a nemissary wielding a sword in hot pursuit. As he busts out of the tavern he shifts into a horse. So now there are all KINDS of amusing confusing stories about the elk/horse being chased by a woman with a sword.
sabrielrose: My my my, what DO they do in that tavern?
Melzer: Meg, you need to visit it.
Me: O.O;
Last item was me meeting with Cynis Isymias, who is plenty mad at me for skipping on the bill. It goes like this. I'm kneeling on the floor, he's having a glass of wine.
Isymias: Where have you been?
Me: I was unavoidably called away.
The Weaver walks in wearing generic mortal face and sits in the chair in the corner where Rian used to sit during those times when I was 'entertaining.'
Isymias: What happened to your other manservant?
Me: A series of unfortunate events.
Isymias: You have displeased me.
Me: I know.
Isymias: I think we'll say...three percent onto your debt to me?
Me: Very well.
(Note: Isymias really doesn't expect me to survive for him to collect his full debt)
Isymias: Stand up.
I stand up. Isymias gives me a good solid whack across the face that knocks me back down. The Weaver half gets up to help, then reminds himself that I am supposed to be doing this, and sits back down.
Me, OOC: This will be so very awesome.
Yeah. Fun.
Payday today. Squee.
