According to my computer(which I trust implicitly) I'm UTC+10:00, but my rampant insomnia complicates matters further. Technically I never wake up before 12:00 local time.

Re: the incessant ninja-ing -- this is why I like doing text RPs in Google Docs. Then you can see what people are typing WHILE they type it, so the chance of interrupting someone is greatly lessened.

 

[DMThaane]

Of course, now that you've had Rikhard decide not to talk, everyone's just going to stand around in awkward silence.

 

[Ireth]

Basically. :/ Oh well. I need to go to bed soon, too.

I missed the chatty armory, not that Addison wanted to go there. She wants a bath and an audience with the queen. As I said earlier, Addy's met her pre-adventure goals. No big deal if the game just goes forward.

 

[Ireth]

I think someone's gonna have to get Rikhard's attention if they want him to head out of the armory with the others, whenever that happens. He's kinda lost in thought at the moment.

 

[Legendary Sidekick]

If he keeps spacing out and Addy gets wise to it, she'll have Dushan prod Rikhard with a striped nose.

 

[Ireth]

*giggle* That might work. ^^ Probably better than a human hand suddenly coming down on his shoulder would, honestly. That would be the most likely to freak him out.

 

[Legendary Sidekick]

I think Loke should use the hand-on-shoulder to snap Rikhard out of daydreaming. Suggested words: "Farrun's orders - we're roommates!"

 

[DMThaane]

Unfortunately, Loke owns a place locally and has already left for it. He'll be staying there for the night.

I'll probably want to post something of him gathering his things and saying goodbye but I might not get it done before I retire so I'm fine if everything jumps along while I'm asleep.

Rikhard: "Aw HELL no!" *flees in fear*

...yeah, I don't think that'll go over well. Unless you WANT to traumatize the poor guy even more.

EDIT: Ninja'd. No need to worry, then. XD

 

[DMThaane]

I actually quite enjoy traumatizing characters but they're usually my own.

 

[Ireth]

I do too. But I think for plot purposes it's best if we start Rikard on the road to recovery, at least until the bad guys start showing up. XD

Rikhard: "Aw HELL no!" *flees in fear*

I wonder... IS there a Hell equivalent in this world? Surely the wicked have to go somewhere after death, right, regardless of what god(dess) they worshiped?

 

[DMThaane]

Looking at some of the gods, they probably just take whoever demonstrates the qualities they value, wicked or not. Most children tales are probably about elves using your soul to power their bathhouses or something similar.

 

[Nimue]

I think the equivalent would be the soul being rejected by the gods, so Sundering, maybe? Works better as a verb.

I like that. So the equivalent of "Go to Hell!" would be more like "Be Sundered!", perhaps.

 

[Nimue]

Sure! Oh, and LS, Addy can certainly have an audience with Hala, but it'd be later in the evening--I'm planning on her having a chat with Farrun then as well. Let me know when you're ready and I'll set up that scene.

 

[Legendary Sidekick]

Oh, okay. Maybe I can sneak in a post in a couple hours (2:05 EST - almost 12:00 now), and maybe another an hour later.

(In other words, if there's something to reply to already there at 2:05, I'll reply then go pick up my daughter.)

 

[DMThaane]

So there isn't some sort of Hufflepuff God that takes 'all the rest' and is used as a cautionary tale of embarrassment? 'Don't displease the gods, children, or you might be taken by the God of Hufflepuff to exist in mediocrity for all time!'
