Alphonse: good evening dogtuna Alphonse: hello dogtuna Alphonse: aw Igfig: sorry, didn't have time to add banter to this one Alphonse: alright then handofevil: :( Igfig: also, all she'd say is woof Alphonse: quickly code it so Jacob_Quinn joined #pwot_dnd. Alphonse: if she ever detects the word dogtuna Alphonse: she says woof Igfig: Last time! On Dogs in the Vineyard Igfig: You tracked the bandits to their hideout up in the hills Igfig: waited until nightfall Alphonse: bens rebelling Igfig: climbed up a cliff and killed a sentry Alphonse: hes watching basketball Ben_harrison: nuh uh Ben_harrison: shhh Igfig: and then the bandits, hearing the sentry's scream, doused their lights and prepared for battle Igfig: and that's where we ended Igfig: everybody is in the dark Jacob_Quinn: I thought he wanted to talk to us Igfig: also that Jacob_Quinn: Also Delf, can you change your name to Paul? It's throwing me off. Igfig: I was just checking the logs to see his exact words Jacob_Quinn: I just looked for Paul for like five minutes. Igfig: "Well hello, folks. Why don't you just put down your guns and let's have a talk." Igfig: The other ones sound like they're getting ready though Alphonse: the other bandits are getting ready? Alphonse: I say we takehim hostage Paul_the_Dog: I climbed up on the roof Alphonse: or at least as a human barricade Jacob_Quinn: I say we ask him nicely to stop burning things. Jacob_Quinn: And then shoot him. Igfig: Also, there's no roof really Igfig: it's a cave Paul_the_Dog: Oh Alphonse: oh ya whats the surroundings look like Paul_the_Dog: I ACTIVATE NO CLIP Jacob_Quinn: It's dark. Jacob_Quinn: And a cliff. Igfig: Well if you remember, we're at the top of a cliff at the end of a canyon Alphonse: and infront of us is a cave Igfig: there was a short path up to a cave Alphonse: alright Alphonse: so yes lets take this sentry hostage Alphonse: and approach the cave Alphonse: and say we want to talk to Paul_the_Dog: I dropped him over the edge Alphonse: uhhh Paul_the_Dog: he is dead Alphonse: fire crotch Igfig: that they'd built a wall across Mordecai: You mean the sentry you dropped off the cliff? Mordecai: Or, someone did. Alphonse: oh Alphonse: hm Jacob_Quinn: Yeah Paul threw him over the cliff. Alphonse: i personally, want to talk to firecrotch Jacob_Quinn: And he screamed. Paul_the_Dog: Actually waffle Igfig: there are a bunch of big rocks and stuff around, too Jacob_Quinn: Alerting the guards. Paul_the_Dog: I crushed you with him Jacob_Quinn: i wanted to slit his throat, but Paul had to go all mountain man on him. Alphonse: so are we going to just kill them all? Jacob_Quinn: We might as well talk to him. Alphonse: yeah Alphonse: it cant hurt Ben_harrison: can we baracade them in the cave with the rocks Jacob_Quinn: It's not like we're about to surprise him. Ben_harrison: trap them Alphonse: and if he really wants to start a fight in close quarters like that Alphonse: paul isnt a good guy to be fighting hand to hand againt Jacob_Quinn: It seems unlikely they'll let us get away with that. Alphonse: one sec gotta wash this bowl Igfig: The wall has windows and stuff, they can fire out at you Jacob_Quinn: Let's see what he wants. Paul_the_Dog: We're still hanging on the cliff Igfig: The rocks are huge ancient boulders, too big for you to move Igfig: no you aren't Jacob_Quinn: Nah we're at the sentry's post now. Igfig: past the post, even Igfig: I think Ben_harrison: should burn them Ben_harrison: show how it feels Jacob_Quinn: It was never really established, but we're definitely on top of the cliff now. Igfig: you went up the path a bit and were hiding amongst the boulders? Igfig: I might be wrong Ben_harrison: maybe theyll stop Jacob_Quinn: I think it was kind of right there Jacob_Quinn: Either way. Jacob_Quinn: We're hiding behind rocks. Alphonse: hey wait actually Alphonse: that was a good idea Jacob_Quinn: They're in a house. Alphonse: we can smoke them out Jacob_Quinn: He wants to talk to us. Jacob_Quinn: With what Jacob_Quinn: ? Alphonse: with fire probably Ben_harrison: smoke Alphonse: smoke helps Jacob_Quinn: Well I mean how are you going to start a fire inside their cave? Alphonse: throw it through the windows and light the furniture thats likely up there on fire Jacob_Quinn: I mean where are we getting a fire? Jacob_Quinn: I have nothing with which to start a fire. Alphonse: welp Alphonse: lets just go talk then Mordecai: Me neither. Ben_harrison: we can burn guns Alphonse: lets go talk Alphonse: fire butt wants to talk they said Igfig: okay Jacob_Quinn: "Talk about what?" Alphonse: idk Alphonse: hes the one who callled at us to talk Jacob_Quinn: I was asking him. Jacob_Quinn: in character. Mordecai: We could use the part of our guns that is used for firing hammer bits to make sparks probably, but yar. Alphonse: oh ya Paul_the_Dog: I'm still hiding Igfig: "What you're doin' here, and what we're doin' here. C'mon out where I can see you." Alphonse: hm Alphonse: wait Alphonse: they dont know how many of us there are Alphonse: we can have maybe two go out Alphonse: two dogs isnt unheard of Alphonse: the rest of us can keep hiding Ben_harrison: not it Jacob_Quinn: We could just stay hidden. Jacob_Quinn: and just let me talk. Jacob_Quinn: So he doesn't know how many there are. Jacob_Quinn: "I think i'm fine right here." Mordecai: Yeah, I am in favor of the majority of us sticking to the shadows as we can. Alphonse: so either way most of us stay hidden Jacob_Quinn: "As for what I'm doing, I thought I might try to stop you from burning [what was the town's name] to the ground." Mordecai: Green Creek. Paul_the_Dog: Is there any way for me to sneak up? Igfig: yeah, but that'll be a conflict I think Igfig: "Don't go makin' accusations at someone you can't even look in the face, now." Alphonse: it seems like most of the town is blaming them so i doubt that they actually arent Jacob_Quinn: "Don't go asking one man to step into the light with a dozen guns trained on him." Igfig: "You can see I'm unarmed." He waves his empty hands in the air. Alphonse: hm Alphonse: go for it jacob Alphonse: alphonse prods jacob forwards slightly Paul_the_Dog: Someone else should go with him Jacob_Quinn: "Tell you what, you come a little closer and i'll meet you in the middle." Alphonse: fine I will Alphonse: I'm the best shot after all Ben_harrison: already called not it Igfig: He does look like he's wearing a holster, but you can't tell if it's filled or not Jacob_Quinn: Just keep a gun on him. Paul_the_Dog: I look at Alphonse. I motion for him to go with him Jacob_Quinn: If they're gonna open fire, only one of us should die. Alphonse: I still say two of us go Jacob_Quinn: I'm not worried about Jack himself. Jacob_Quinn: I'd rather keep our numbers secret. Alphonse: there is 5 of us Alphonse: 2 is a good number to hide our real numbers Jacob_Quinn: Fair enough. Alphonse: theyd doubt it if only 1 came out Jacob_Quinn: Let's go, then. Alphonse: alrihgt Alphonse: alphonse and jacob step out from behind the rocks Mordecai: and now it is supper time for me, what a cliffhanger, yar. Mordecai: Sorta. Igfig: "There you go. That wasn't so hard, was it?" Jacob_Quinn: "You wanted to talk, talk." Ben_harrison: rude Alphonse: theyre bandits they prefer talking like this Ben_harrison: ruuude Jacob_Quinn: I don't have all night to posture with this guy. Igfig: "Just did." He grins, and suddenly his gun is in his hand. Alphonse: paul still had his gun trained on the guy right Igfig: Roll for conflict! Jacob_Quinn: Yeah. Alphonse: excellent Jacob_Quinn: What are we rolling? Alphonse: paul can get this guy first Igfig: Acuity and Will Alphonse: err Alphonse: idk if my guy wants to use his gun Paul_the_Dog: I have my shotgun Alphonse: a shotgun wont do much at a distance Paul_the_Dog: I can run forward and shoot them Alphonse: dude just use your revolver Alphonse: dont run out of cover Alphonse: AT Alphonse: a guy holding a gun Alphonse: that is INSANITY Paul_the_Dog: Wait do I have a revolver Jacob_Quinn: 8d6 Dogtuna: Jacob_Quinn's pool is [1, 1, 1, 2, 4, 4, 5, 6] Alphonse: now lets rolll Igfig: Probably? Jacob_Quinn: Is there one on your sheet? Alphonse: 8d6 Dogtuna: Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5] Paul_the_Dog: No Paul_the_Dog: I have a shotgun Ben_harrison: 6d6 Dogtuna: Ben_harrison's pool is [1, 1, 4, 5, 6, 6] Jacob_Quinn: Then you don't.

Alphonse: wait we're using guns Paul_the_Dog: 8d6 Dogtuna: Paul_the_Dog's pool is [1, 1, 2, 2, 4, 4, 5, 6] FlaminJack: 11d6 Dogtuna: FlaminJack's pool is [1, 1, 3, 3, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6] Alphonse: that adds extra dice doesnt it? Jacob_Quinn: They're not as useless at distances of more than a yard as CoD would have you believe. Jacob_Quinn: It does when you pull them in. Alphonse: lright Jacob_Quinn: As part of the conflict. Ben_harrison: hey lets ask jack if he is gay FlaminJack: Guns add their dice plus 1d4, once you use them Paul_the_Dog: Yeah but I don't wanna hit you guys Jacob_Quinn: are you that bad a shot? Jacob_Quinn: A shotgun cluster is like... a six-inch circle. Alphonse: probably ya Paul_the_Dog: Igfig. How far away is jack and what would it take to run up to him FlaminJack: anyway, I think you guys represent the Law, so he'll bring in his Relationship with The Law FlaminJack: 1d8 Dogtuna: FlaminJack's pool is [1, 1, 3, 3, 3, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6] Alphonse: what about a pre-20th century shotgun? Jacob_Quinn: It's still physics. Alphonse: id imagine there would be more of a spread though Alphonse: just because of lower quality materials Jacob_Quinn: There is only so much spread possible from a 1/2-inch circle. Jacob_Quinn: So who's starting this conflict. FlaminJack: You'd probably need to get a bit closer, but you can see some rocks that would be close enough FlaminJack: Jack is Paul_the_Dog: Ok FlaminJack: He's also Quick on the Draw FlaminJack: 1d10 Dogtuna: FlaminJack's pool is [1, 1, 3, 3, 3, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 9] Alphonse: oh fuck Alphonse: is flamin jack the only one there?

Alphonse: ya Paul_the_Dog: ROCK PAPER BLAM SHOTGUN TO THE FACE FlaminJack: Also Paul, if you want to take it to melee you have to get up close enough and then you can just escalate your Body into the mix FlaminJack: Anyway FlaminJack: "Just did." He grins, and suddenly his gun is in his hand. Ben_harrison: do we have to gun? Alphonse: no Alphonse: but since hes about to shoot Jacob_Quinn: Not until your turn. Alphonse: i imagine it would be most useful FlaminJack: he fires at Jacob FlaminJack: RAISE 5 5 Dogtuna: Raised 10. FlaminJack's pool is [1, 1, 3, 3, 3, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 9] Paul_the_Dog: (If I'm going to charge forward and shoot should I roll my body as well?)

FlaminJack: Jack shoves the dog off of him at Alphonse and staggers to his feet guacamole: jacob you're pretty far behind Jacob_Quinn: I've only used one trai Jacob_Quinn: t guacamole: i am covered by dog Jacob_Quinn: And no relationships. FlaminJack: RAISE 3 3 Dogtuna: Raised 6.

FlaminJack: well, his dog does I suppose FlaminJack: in any case, it's not like he loses anything from that see Paul_the_Dog: If you hover over guacamole you will se see that his comments currently take up about 80% of the screen Mordecai: Barton is very important. guacamole: ya Jacob_Quinn: That is kind of a grey area. Jacob_Quinn: The dog does have individual agency guacamole: i make sure the game moves at a sort of not horribly slow pace guacamole: by hurrying it along Paul_the_Dog: good job guacamole Paul_the_Dog: I still hate you guacamole: since its been 2 and a half hours since we started this encoutner Paul_the_Dog: my vow demands it FlaminJack: in any case, who is up now? Ben? FlaminJack: Ben. guacamole: ya Jacob_Quinn: Anyway, Ben is up. Ben_harrison: i use all the experience of digging cat-holes to dig my foot in this guys back Paul_the_Dog: I have to leave shortly Mordecai: And it makes sense to me contextually, cause if Barton/me sees with a 6 then that makes sense for following up with the dog charging into him again. Ben_harrison: can i do that Ben_harrison: and use the dig trait FlaminJack: uhh guacamole: you have weird traits guacamole: oddly specific ones guacamole: but no guacamole: cause you dont use your foot to dig guacamole: you use a shovel Ben_harrison: yeah you do Paul_the_Dog: not if you're a dog guacamole: or your hands FlaminJack: I think it'd work I guess Ben_harrison: ever dug a hole Mordecai: or a spade, you can push down on a spade with your foot. guacamole: not in the rocky terrain of ohio Paul_the_Dog: waffle has never dug a hole Ben_harrison: you slam your foot on the spade Mordecai: But still seems weird. guacamole: that is true Ben_harrison: aid guacamole: im iffy on this Ben_harrison: said Paul_the_Dog: I dug holes with my foot guacamole: ill allow ig to decide Paul_the_Dog: all the time FlaminJack: if your skill is digging and you want to dig your foot into a guy's back, that's digging too Paul_the_Dog: and I live closest to utah Paul_the_Dog: so I win guacamole: alright then FlaminJack: so go ahead ben Ben_harrison: 1d4 Dogtuna: Ben_harrison's pool is [1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 6] Ben_harrison: RAISE 4 6 Dogtuna: Raised 10.

FlaminJack: yeah Jacob_Quinn: So Ben is kicking the shit out of the bandits. FlaminJack: the guy grunts in pain and goes limp. Man, you kicked him right in the spine guacamole: nah its jack guacamole: oh it is the bandits Jacob_Quinn: Or Jack.

Jacob_Quinn: So his head is legit ripped off his body. guacamole: finish off the bandits delf Ben_harrison: rip FlaminJack FlaminJack: that handsome head of his is no more Mordecai: Oh man, and I just thought of a really good line for killing someone too. Jacob_Quinn: "May the King of Life grant you mercy in the next life. You'll find no more here." FlaminJack: and he was very handsome Ben_harrison: :( Paul_the_Dog: OK Mordecai: I was thinking "And in the name of the King of Life, I now take yours." Jacob_Quinn: well now he's DEAD. Paul_the_Dog: I kick the bandit off me Paul_the_Dog: Look at him for a second Paul_the_Dog: and the last thing he sees FlaminJack: you should have saved those, there'll be more people to kill in the future Paul_the_Dog: is the flash of my sword Paul_the_Dog: as I cut his head off FlaminJack: indeed it is Jacob_Quinn: I was thinking I might say it to everyone I kill.

Bandits: except I guess the guy in the house Bandits: he's still alive Jacob_Quinn: Well, we can't have that. Paul_the_Dog: but he is almost dead Paul_the_Dog: right? Mordecai: I don't think he is going to do much considering literally everyone else he had worked with and had followed just died. Jacob_Quinn: He sinned.

Alphonse: "Do you submit to the king of life's judgment?" Bandits: The dude is an older guy, looks like he's been in this business for a long time Paul_the_Dog: I stare at him as I clean my blade Mordecai: I see to Barton and make sure to let him know he did a good job. Jacob_Quinn: Jacob casually checks his shotgun. Mordecai: And that he was a very good boy. Jacob_Quinn: For dust and whatnot. Jacob_Quinn: It is a very intimidating weapon. Bandits: when you grabbed him, he was by the body of a much younger guy, a teenager really, trying in vain to staunch his bleeding Jacob_Quinn: Covered in angels and swords and horses and such. Bandits: anyway, so you dragged him out Alphonse: hm Alphonse: ya Alphonse: he's standing on the ledge Alphonse: his back to it and ims tanding right up Alphonse: to him Paul_the_Dog: I whisper to alphonse Bandits: "Yes! Yes I repent! Whatever you want I'll do it!" Paul_the_Dog: "I want to do this." Alphonse: I push paul away Paul_the_Dog: I grunt Alphonse: "So you understand, the dozens, maybe hundreds of cruel painful deaths you have caused?" Ben_harrison stops bleeding so we can talk to young guy Bandits: "Hundreds...? I've killed, uh, two—no, three guys... Alphonse: this is old guy not young guy Bandits: The young guy is already dead Ben_harrison: oh Ben_harrison: then i spit on him i guess Alphonse: "By banditing you have done more damage than simply killing people, burning down houses and destroying livelihoods, spreading terror throughout the lands" Alphonse: ya go ahead and do that Jacob_Quinn: "How many have gone hungry because of you." Jacob_Quinn: "How many have lost their homes because of you?" Alphonse: I point my thumb back and jacob Alphonse: "You're despicable" Alphonse: "but the king of life is forgiving" Alphonse: "do you understand your sins Alphonse: " Bandits: "I—I don't know?

Paul_the_Dog: (I kick Alphonse off the cliff as payment) Alphonse: he just goes "aaaah" Alphonse: "oh noooo" Jacob_Quinn: "daaarn." Paul_the_Dog: A better t hing to do would've been to type /kick bandits off the cliff Igfig: "oh weeeeeell" Ben_harrison: now pee on him Alphonse: i dont have the authority t kick Igfig: "thaaaaats the way the cookie crumbles" Mordecai: "Oooooooooooooh bother." Jacob_Quinn: "que sera seraaaah" Mordecai: Or actualy "Oooh booooooother." Makes more sense. Paul_the_Dog: "what can you dooooooooooooo" Jacob_Quinn: Anyway, do they have any cool shit? Mordecai: "Mmm, watcha saaaaaaay." Alphonse: lets give paul jack's pistol Alphonse: since he needs one anyways Igfig: Around back a ways you find their horses tethered up in a box canyon sort of thing Igfig: Jack's pistol is nothing special Ben_harrison: woo Paul_the_Dog: meh Alphonse: yeah but paul needs a pistol regardless Igfig: They actually don't seem to have all that much Jacob_Quinn: I'll make him one. Alphonse: can you mod jack's? Jacob_Quinn: I can make him an excellent one. Paul_the_Dog: can we teabag jack's body Alphonse: itd be easier what with already having the pieces Alphonse: instead of buying parts all across towns and stuff Igfig: some food, some cards, a bit of cash Jacob_Quinn: Yeah, but I don't trust anyone else's work. Alphonse: alright then Alphonse: I pocket the pistol myself then Jacob_Quinn: I think I could trouble the people of green Creek for one pistol's worth of parts. Alphonse: and the cash Paul_the_Dog: oy Jacob_Quinn: After this. Alphonse: because im the best at counting and math Paul_the_Dog: OY Paul_the_Dog: OOOOOOOOOOOOOY\ Alphonse: its the party's cash Jacob_Quinn: WHAt. Igfig: oh yeah, they all had guns of course Paul_the_Dog: I'm talking about the pistol Alphonse: oh Jacob_Quinn: I'm gonna make you one. Jacob_Quinn: A good one. Alphonse: so you want the pistol? Paul_the_Dog: Ok nevermind Paul_the_Dog: continue Alphonse: he can use this one for now Paul_the_Dog: or not Alphonse: or we could just give these weapons to the towns people Paul_the_Dog: I will take it Alphonse: so they dont have to worry about bandits Paul_the_Dog: Pfft Alphonse: we have like 5 guns here delf Jacob_Quinn: That would be the sensible thing I think. Paul_the_Dog: towns people schowns people Alphonse: you can take one Alphonse: i hand paul jack's gun Mordecai: Just don't give Constance one, she has more then enough gun as is. Jacob_Quinn: Anyway, we grab the guns and money. Ben_harrison: should bring the horses down Alphonse: ill give uhh Ben_harrison: they were probs stolen Alphonse: that boy Jacob_Quinn: How did they even get their horses up here?

Paul_the_Dog: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WCFUGCOLLU Alphonse: theres a path Igfig: the steps were wide and shallow enough Alphonse: they were just guarding the path Paul_the_Dog: Music currently Alphonse: so lets take those back to the towns folks Alphonse: a horse is good for a farm Igfig: okay Alphonse: alright who votes warp unless they have something else to do here Igfig: so you pack up your stuff... are you doing anything with the bodies? Jacob_Quinn: I say we just take the stolen stuff back. Paul_the_Dog: tea bag Alphonse: lets throw them down the ledge with the other dude Jacob_Quinn: A cairn maybe? Ben_harrison: throw them Paul_the_Dog: pee on them Igfig: okay, you tea bag the bodies Alphonse: ben also votes throw them off Jacob_Quinn: We're gun priests, not Halo players. Mordecai: We could bring them all into the cave. Paul_the_Dog: how does the tea taste? Igfig: and throw them off the cliff into a big pile Alphonse: thatd make them rot and stink the place up Mordecai: Bury them in their self-made tomb. Alphonse: alright now ben Ben_harrison: pee on the pile Alphonse: light them ablaze Alphonse: use that fire making skill of yours Ben_harrison: okay that to Jacob_Quinn: Yeah let's just put them in the cave and wall up the entrance. Igfig: a big pile, as it is written in the book of life Ben_harrison: flaming pile of piss Alphonse: too late they are in a pile down the cliff Mordecai: Burning them would also be very fitting though. Alphonse: ben will light them up, and we will be on our way Paul_the_Dog: Nah. Just let them rot Mordecai: I like the burning them idea. Mordecai: It is thematically fitting. Jacob_Quinn: We should do something. Paul_the_Dog: It will scare people away from this demon infested place Jacob_Quinn: We're religious men. Alphonse: burn them ben burn them Ben_harrison: we should bring jack to sam as a wedding present Alphonse: burn burn burn burn burn Jacob_Quinn: We would be respectful of the dead. Alphonse: oh man Paul_the_Dog: hahahahaha Alphonse: thats a great idea Paul_the_Dog: AHAHAHAHAA Jacob_Quinn: He has no head. Alphonse: bring him just the head Paul_the_Dog: He has one head Jacob_Quinn: That handsome face is gone. Alphonse: oh wait it got exploded Jacob_Quinn: No it was literally obliterated.

Mordecai tosses Jack's corpse into the burn pile as well. Alphonse: hang it outside the town? Paul_the_Dog: We take it back Paul_the_Dog: and stake it Jacob_Quinn: No. Paul_the_Dog: at the wedding Ben_harrison carries jack Igfig: yeah, you guys are not being very godly right now Jacob_Quinn: We burn it. Alphonse: ok ok ok ok Ben_harrison: aww Alphonse: we burn the bodies Paul_the_Dog: noooooo Alphonse: and warp back to town Paul_the_Dog: we need to stake it Alphonse: fast travel Paul_the_Dog: HE'S A VAMPIRE Mordecai: We should burn them because at least that is in a way a proper form of a funeral. Alphonse: ya Mordecai: Or burial. Igfig: yeah Mordecai: Plus they set fire to stuff, so again, fun thematic stuff. Igfig: It's not how you bury someone of the Faith, but some of the Mountain People do that at least Igfig: and some easterners, you've heard Igfig: so you head back to the branch Mordecai: And these guys weren't really of the faith anyways, least not that we know of. Jacob_Quinn: Anyway they're burned. Jacob_Quinn: And we're back in town. Paul_the_Dog: "These people do not deserved a burning" Igfig: the mood there is... mixed Jacob_Quinn: "You wanted to pee on them and present them as a wedding gift." Paul_the_Dog: "A much better fate" Alphonse: "you're fucked up man" Ben_harrison: heheh Ben_harrison: i am best dog Alphonse: "and thats coming from somenoe who went to college out east" Igfig: most people are congratulatory and thankful that you've dealt with the bandits Alphonse: "you know once i saw a guy have intercourse with a horse" Alphonse: "right there on the streets" Alphonse: "people just watched" Paul_the_Dog: "You do not know of the horrors and atrocities I both witnessed and committed." Paul_the_Dog: Paul looks down Jacob_Quinn: "We can have a Alphonse: paul has fucked a horse Jacob_Quinn: 'who's more fucked up' contest later." Paul_the_Dog: I am laughing so hard Paul_the_Dog: help Igfig: but when you see Samuel and his mother Judith (your sister, Alphonse), they're downright gloomy Igfig: Judith appears to be fighting back tears, actually Ben_harrison: "Hello!" Igfig: they're both dressed in black Alphonse: "What happened while we were gone?" Alphonse: "The town seems to be... gloomy" Igfig: "Alfie... I wish I could have said hello when you were here earlier, before..." Paul_the_Dog: (Alphonse died) Alphonse: nah i bet the kid did Igfig: "Because right now, I... I..." Alphonse: oh no samuel is there Alphonse: hm Igfig: "Hamilton is dead! He drowned in the river last night!" Alphonse: well SOMEONE died Alphonse: oh shit Paul_the_Dog: (Who was hamilton again) Alphonse: LOOKS LIKE WE AINT DONE HERE Mordecai: The father. Alphonse: samuel's dad Jacob_Quinn: Her husband. Alphonse: honestly Igfig: yeah Paul_the_Dog: Huh Alphonse: i suspect constance's mom Igfig: and she breaks down crying proper now Igfig: constance's mom? Jacob_Quinn: I would not be surprised if it was Constance. Mordecai: Constance is the mom. Jacob_Quinn: Trying to make it so Samuel has to stay home. Alphonse: I walk forwards and take her by the shoulders and lead her away to a nearby bench to cry Igfig: And now with that cliffhanger Paul_the_Dog: Paul clenches his fists Alphonse: yar Igfig: I'm going to get some ice cream Paul_the_Dog: "Who." Paul_the_Dog: "Who did this." Igfig: and we can keep going after that Alphonse: ya Paul_the_Dog: (I have to go though) Alphonse: take this time to pick your fallouts guys Alphonse: okay how about Jacob_Quinn: I'm down to just be done if Delf is leaving. Igfig: aright, see you later Delf! Alphonse: paul goes off with the mother Igfig: either way Mordecai: Such cliffhanger, much death, more doge in vineyard to come. Igfig: ice cream first Paul_the_Dog: Okay good bye Alphonse: picks your fallouts and experiences Paul_the_Dog quit. Mordecai: I think I'm going to nab an ice cream sandwich then, yar. Igfig: Bet you guys wish you'd left someone back in town now, eh? Jacob_Quinn: Eh, that kinda took everybody. Alphonse: probably Alphonse: but ya it took everyone Mordecai: I hadn't known that that was an option. Jacob_Quinn: And also there were only three of us when we left town Igfig: well, you won pretty handily Mordecai: We kinda just went. Alphonse: for my experience i think im going to add 1d6 learned to use his gun in regular combat Igfig: although that might have been as much bad luck as lack of power Jacob_Quinn: We did, but you rolled really poorly. Igfig: yeah Igfig: well, shrug then Ben_harrison: for my experience can i one more point in my self esteem Ben_harrison: cause i felt good after that Igfig: if you really want to Igfig: what's it at now Ben_harrison: 6d10 Dogtuna: Ben_harrison's pool is [1, 2, 3, 7, 7, 8] Mordecai: But yar, now we have learned a valuable lesson.

Igfig: like, give it terrible prophecies? Alphonse: yes, in our discussions Alphonse: of course we'd eventually end up giving it a proper one Igfig: and make it believe it'll grow up to be a scourge upon this earth? Alphonse: but the discussions would be funny Alphonse: thatd be great Igfig: I suppose Alphonse: like who the fuck would prophesize a baby would kill his brother Alphonse: what a total jackass Alphonse: hey i just realized Alphonse: can i add a relationship for the dog that blessed me at birth Alphonse: its only been 20 years or so Igfig: sure thing Alphonse: alrighty Alphonse: hmm Igfig: probably not a dog still, but could definitely be a Steward somewhere Alphonse: im thinking 2d6 Alphonse: yeah Igfig: sounds good Alphonse: cause its really important to me Alphonse: but thats also a lot of relationship dice Alphonse: well we get free ones between towns Alphonse: so it should be fine Igfig: yeah Alphonse: man but what a JACKASS Mordecai: Plus the number of dice is supposed to correlate more to how interesting that trait or relationship is supposed to be in regards to story, yar. Igfig: I can't remember, did you kill your brother after all Igfig: aye Alphonse: yeah i didi Alphonse: yeah i did Alphonse: well i sort of did Alphonse: he was shot and i was the doctor who had to save him Igfig: indirectly Igfig: ah, right Alphonse: but i was unable to Alphonse: ya Alphonse: i cant think of a longterm fallout to take Alphonse: it was just a shot in my arm really Igfig: wish I had your character sheet handy in the google docs folder so I could read that myself Alphonse: oh ya Igfig: uhm Alphonse: ill put it into google docs later Igfig: Take a trait at 1d4, Al Alphonse: how about a 1d4 relationship with bandits?

Alphonse: mordecai you up and about?/ Alphonse: what Alphonse: ben_harrison? Ben_harrison: yo Ben_harrison: hey Alphonse Alphonse: alrighty Mordecai: I am here, I was partially brainstorming stuff for the Oz thing. Ben_harrison: just hit b tab Alphonse: we can continue our investigation now Igfig: right Alphonse: paul is caring for my cousin Igfig: sister Mordecai: I think you should be caring for your sister, the three of us can start investigating while you do that. Mordecai: I mean she is your sister after all. Alphonse: well paul left Mordecai: Yar, but story wise your sister just lost her husband. Igfig: do you really want to leave your sister with paul Alphonse: so i think itd just be best to have him go do that so we have an excuse for him to be gone Alphonse: paul's a good guy Mordecai: And also Paul is not a people person. Mordecai: A good guy I suppose, but not a people person. Alphonse: oh well she'll have to deal with it Alphonse: i have investigating to do Mordecai: And your sister and Sam are going to need some serious support here. Igfig: okay Igfig: so what do you intend to do? Alphonse: OH WELL Alphonse: honestly with my training and off at college and then working around the country as a doctor Jacob_Quinn: Watch the Undertaker bury Brock Lesnar. Jacob_Quinn: And also I guess find out who killed Hamilton. Alphonse: i was never too close with my sister we didnt see each other much Alphonse: wait igfig Alphonse: is this the same icecream as last week Igfig: I had ice cream last week? Alphonse: do you have a constant source of icecream Alphonse: you have icecream during every game so far Mordecai: Who doesn't have a constant source of ice cream? Alphonse: all 3 weeks we have played youve had icecream Igfig: I did not have ice cream last week Alphonse: hm Igfig: although last week I did go downstairs to grab a coke I think Alphonse: maybe my sleep fed me false news of icecream Igfig: and possibly the week before that Mordecai: You dreamed of Igfig eating ice cream. Alphonse: yup Alphonse: ANYWAYS Igfig: but I haven't had any ice cream for a couple weeks at least Alphonse: lets start investigating Igfig: Igfig covered in ice cream Igfig: smearing it all over his body Alphonse: now igfig im 500% certain you had icecream two weeks ago Igfig: c'mon waffle, you know you want this Alphonse: ;A; Mordecai: Chocolate sauce pouring down from above him. Igfig: my sweet white creamy goodness Alphonse: icant even say i need an adult Alphonse: cause now i AM an adult Mordecai: A lone cherry on top. Alphonse: a cherry on each nipple Igfig: two cherries Igfig: yes Mordecai: Alright two. Alphonse is flutered Alphonse: flutters away like a butterfly Mordecai: I hate to say it, but are we going for a banana split with this? Alphonse: im sure fluttering while being shy Igfig: anyway, this ice cream I got on Thursday Igfig: and that was the last of it Alphonse: i wonder what you would call what i am doign right now Igfig: (the rest of it was eaten by a hungry dinner party) Mordecai: Yup, I have killed it now. The dream lies dead at my feet, melted ice cream pooling around it. Alphonse: OKA YLETS INVESTIGAATE Igfig: okay Igfig: what are you doing Alphonse: well first we need to investigate the body Alphonse: if its still there Mordecai: Well, if he's going to go investigate stuff I'm probably going to try and handle Sam. Igfig: it's been brought into... the church, I guess Alphonse: id hope they would leave the body where it was so the dogs they knew were in the town could investigate Alphonse: oh well Jacob_Quinn: I have a relationship with Sam. Igfig: wait, is there a church? Alphonse: lets go look at it in the church Alphonse: err Alphonse: no there wasnt Igfig: there probably isn't a church Alphonse: wait Mordecai: Um, there was a Steward office. Alphonse: there was a tiny one Igfig: a meeting hall of some sort Alphonse: remember the guy who died in the fire was the priest Alphonse: or the priest type thign at least Mordecai: Yeah, what would a small town do with a dead guy? Igfig: there are no priests Mordecai: They probably wouldn't have a proper mortuary. Ben_harrison: burn him Alphonse: id imagine they would have a small church Ben_harrison: pee on him Alphonse: mordecai they get buried on their property Jacob_Quinn: They'd have a graveyard of some sort at the very least. Ben_harrison: then burn him Igfig: they don't have a church because there are no priests Alphonse: or if they cannot be buried in a small graveyard Alphonse: well wheres the body then Igfig: everybody is the priest of his own family Igfig: I'd say it's probably at the meeting house Igfig: there is apparently a meeting house Alphonse: lets head there then Alphonse: and INVESTIGE Jacob_Quinn: TO THE MEETING HOUSE. Alphonse: gate Mordecai: But yar, me and Barton are going to talk to Sam. Igfig: okay Alphonse: lets split this then? Alphonse: private with mordecai Igfig: sure Alphonse: id say we would run a conflict to see if we find any clues Alphonse: on the body Alphonse: aw man Alphonse: im a doctor Alphonse: im gunna have to do gross tuf Alphonse: fstuff* Igfig: #pwot_dnd2, mordecai? Alphonse: you should just private chat Igfig: Or should we just do it sequentially Alphonse: itd be easier Igfig: Yeah, but I want Dogtuna to log the conversation Igfig: oh, that reminds me Alphonse: lets do it sequentially then Mordecai: Alrighty. Igfig: nobody say anything for a few moments Alphonse: NOTE igfig is covered in icecream Dogtuna: Noted. Igfig: REMOVE 1 Dogtuna: You can't remove dice that aren't in your pool, Igfig. Igfig: aha Igfig: yes it works now Alphonse: yayyy Alphonse: 1d6 Dogtuna: Alphonse's pool is [3] Alphonse: REMOVE 3 Dogtuna: Removed [3] from pool. Alphonse's pool is [] Alphonse: yooooooo Igfig: woo Alphonse: alright that was some nice in-game coding Mordecai: Hooray for increased functionality. Alphonse: lets continue Alphonse: sequentially then Alphonse: lets have mordecai talk to sam first Alphonse: so he can join us in the meeting hall Igfig: oh, ok Alphonse: mordecai art thou readyith Mordecai: Well, I suppose. Igfig: uh, and you're going to have Paul hustle Judith off or something? Alphonse: whose judith again Igfig: your sister Alphonse: wait then whose sam Igfig: sam's mom Alphonse: oh samuel Alphonse: fuck Mordecai: I figure it'd be fine if we do it at the same time, I don't think I'd have a whole lot to add to the corpse part of an investigation anyways. Alphonse: okay Alphonse: ya Alphonse: mordecai youre the hunter right Mordecai: Yeah. Alphonse: maybe you know somethign about wounds i do not Alphonse: you cuold help for a conflict Mordecai: True. Alphonse: so talk to ol' sammy mordecai Igfig: okay let's just do it sequentially then Mordecai: Alright. Alphonse: as mordecai goes off to talk to sam the rest of us discuss the developements amongst ourselves Jacob_Quinn: "Boy, how about those developments." Igfig: and just to be clear, you are having Paul take Judith away? Because otherwise she'd probably want to be there when you talk with Samuel Alphonse: "they sure are developments" Jacob_Quinn: I assume she'd be there. Alphonse: well i cant say but if paul isnt a people person Alphonse: then she'd stay Alphonse: and paul would just be there Alphonse: almost like a body guard to make her feel better Igfig: all right Alphonse: safer Alphonse: thats more reasonable Mordecai: It would make sense if we are doing it sequentially to just have Alphonse join in too, especially since she is his sister and Sam is his nephew. Igfig: she'd feel better if it was you there, Al Alphonse: yeah Alphonse: ill join in Igfig: and not some big ugly mountain people guy Alphonse: rood Alphonse: but i get it Igfig: aright Alphonse: ill join mordecai in talking to sammy Igfig: okay, so go ahead then Jacob_Quinn: I'll do it. Jacob_Quinn: You go look at the body. Mordecai: I'm joining in on the Sam end cause I've met him, and cause I come from a large family. Jacob_Quinn: I have a relationship with Sam. Alphonse: well Alphonse: since we're doing it sequentially Mordecai: I think we all do, sorta. Alphonse: theres no reason for us to split Ben_harrison: ill go body Alphonse: lets just all talk to sammy Ben_harrison: oh Alphonse: ben join us with sammy Igfig: you know what, let's split it after all then Alphonse: my place is at the body but it would be better to be with the mother Igfig: ohh Igfig: right Alphonse: i keep forgetting my own sisters name Igfig: I see what you mean Igfig: okay fine, sequential it is Igfig: judith Alphonse: alirhgty Alphonse: judith right Alphonse: okay Igfig: as in "fuck you judith" Igfig: from the Pwot Plays tagline Alphonse: uh okay Alphonse: oh i havent read pwot plays Igfig: oh Igfig: well that's the current convo title Igfig: completely unrelated though Alphonse: so we approach the grief stricken family Mordecai: We could have only a few of us participate. Igfig: yes Igfig: up to you Igfig: what do you say though Mordecai: I mean not everyone has a reason to, like I don't think Ben feels his character have a reason to. Jacob_Quinn: It seems rude to mob her. Igfig: Judith hugs you and weeps, Alphonse Mordecai: That too. Igfig: but she eventually gets herself together Alphonse: "I know this is a hard time judith but you're an Alexander, we're tough, and we need you to hold out so we can ask you some questions" Ben_harrison: i hang back if we all go Igfig: "Right. Yes. Of course." Alphonse: "Any information you can give us, even something that seems unrelated or minor could help" Igfig: She wipes her eys with a handkerchief and straightens out her rumpled dress Mordecai: "Sam, come here with me for a moment, we'll leave your uncle and mother alone for a moment." Mordecai: That's a few too many moments in that sentence. Jacob_Quinn: You could say it build a lot of momentum. Jacob_Quinn: YEAAAAH. Igfig: "I don't think there's much to tell... as far as I know, it was an accident." Mordecai: I get what you're going at, but it feels more like it makes the sentence stop and go, yar. Mordecai: I do enjoy what you did there though. Alphonse: "We have... reason to believe it was foul play" Igfig: "He must have gone out for a late-night walk and... and fallen in somehow?" Igfig: "What? Really? Why?" Mordecai: I don't think we have reason to state that we believe it was foul play yet. Alphonse: "I'd rather not disclose anything until we know for sure" Jacob_Quinn: We all immediately thought it was Constance. Jacob_Quinn: I'd say we supsect it. Jacob_Quinn: suspect* Alphonse: well its my sister i can trust her to want to know Mordecai: Yeah, but did our characters all immediately think it was Constance? Alphonse: well al did Mordecai: Mine probably did cause she almost shot me, but still. Alphonse: i think ew all did Alphonse: since she pulled a gun on us Alphonse: and so much hated hamilton Jacob_Quinn: I dunno, I think in that case OOC and in character are the same. Alphonse: yeah Mordecai: Alrighty. Jacob_Quinn: It's not like there was some metagame clue that made us think it. Igfig: "O-okay... I'm not sure what to say then. I woke up in the middle of the night and he was gone, but I didn't think much of it. It wasn't until morning, when he still wasn't back, that I got worried." Alphonse: "Was he there the night before? Went to bed with you?" Igfig: "Yes, yes. Everything was normal. He was excited about Samuel's upcoming marriage." Igfig: Samuel looks very :| at that Alphonse: hey thats my face Alphonse: "Did he and constance want to speak to each other about the marriage?" Alphonse: i have no idea how to ask that in a way that doesnt say WE SUSPECT HER Mordecai: I did a message with all the moments to try and take Sam away from this conversation. Mordecai: I'm guessing you missed it, yar. Igfig: He chimes in. "I did hear some walking around late at night, but I fell asleep again right away." Ben_harrison: it was sam Alphonse: "Did you hear anything else?" Alphonse: "Speaking? Even him putting his shoes on? Alphonse: " Ben_harrison: totes sam Igfig: "No, nothing else. Just the floor creaking... maybe twice?" Alphonse: the floor would creak on the stairs or around there i think Alphonse: most commonly at least Alphonse: if it were twice it wouldnt work cause hed be going down Alphonse: thats one squeak Alphonse: but wheres the other come from Jacob_Quinn: Two people. Alphonse: boom Alphonse: second person fucking PROVEN Jacob_Quinn: NO DOUBT. Alphonse: call phoenix wright im taking over Ben_harrison: ask sam if he did it Igfig: "He wanted to talk to Sister Constance eventually, but he wasn't planning on doing that until she'd actually agreed to let the marriage happen." Alphonse: i doubt samuel would do it seeing as that would just further people wanting them to get married Alphonse: combine the families so they can support each other Alphonse: samuel isnt dumb Igfig: "I don't know if that can happen now, though..." Judith says Alphonse: nor is he capable of murder Alphonse: hm Alphonse: any questions for them you guys Ben_harrison: "Why" Alphonse: cause hammy is DEAD Igfig: "I don't think I could stand to lose both Samuel and Hamilton." Mordecai: Well, this still poses a problem even if we deal with Constance. Now there is both a general store in need of someone to run it, and a farm in need of someone to run it. Alphonse: samuel can run the store Ben_harrison: sam did it Alphonse: he's good with numbers remember Alphonse: the farm Alphonse: no idea Alphonse: however Alphonse: if it turns out to be constance Alphonse: the children could move in with sammy Igfig: "What would I do without a man about the place? I'd be worse off than Sister Constance, poor dear." Alphonse: "Why worse off than her? She only lost the husband" Igfig: "If Samuel were to marry Edwina, he'd have to go take care of the farm. I'd be alone in this store." Igfig: "I can run it, but not on my own." Alphonse: "Maybe edwina could come here and samuel could run the store" Alphonse: "But we can figure that out later" Alphonse: lets go look at the body, i dont think they know much Igfig: "I suppose... that leaves Sister Constance back where she started, then." Ben_harrison: sam knows Igfig: "Oh, it's all just too much!" Alphonse: "Shh sister it's okay" Alphonse: "We'll figure this all out, that's our job" Igfig: She smiles wanly Alphonse: "We need to go look around some, we can leave Paul here with you as a guard if it will make you feel better" Igfig: "It's good to hear you say that." Igfig: She looks at Paul Alphonse: "He's a mountain man yes, we've had skirmishes before with them, but he's also a dog and that comes first" Ben_harrison: ahah Alphonse: "He's not very sociable" Igfig: "I... think I'll be all right here with just Samuel, thank you." Ben_harrison: haha Alphonse: DAMIT Alphonse: I JUST WANT TOG ET RID OF PAUL Igfig: Paul can just go mope by the river or something Mordecai: Teehee. Alphonse: having him silently following us is weird Alphonse: sure Alphonse: paul goes to mope by the river Alphonse: confirmed Igfig: or deliver mail Alphonse: its canon Alphonse: oh ya Alphonse: we still need to do that Alphonse: okay he can mope while delivering mail Ben_harrison: WHOA NOW Ben_harrison: HEY Igfig: oh right Igfig: that's Ben's role Alphonse: ben gets so hot over mail Alphonse: THEN PAUL GOES TO MOPE Igfig: delivering mail, reading URLs, and talking about sports Ben_harrison: woooo Alphonse: alright Alphonse: lets go to the body now Igfig: okay Ben_harrison: i can mail while you body Alphonse: thatd work, i dont think a mail man is much good investigating a body Igfig: So the body's in the meeting hall, in a coffin, covered with a sheet Alphonse: alright Alphonse: lets just open it up and slam it down on a table Alphonse: get everyone whose visiting out of there Alphonse: its time to dismantle a corpse Igfig: the coffin is already on the table Alphonse: yeah but its in a coffin Igfig: and nobody is really about Alphonse: I pull out my medkit Alphonse: and put on gloves Igfig: okay you take the coffin off the table and pull out the corpse Igfig: and put it back on the table Alphonse: yah Alphonse: should we do a conflict for this? Alphonse: for me to investigate Igfig: nah Alphonse: alright Igfig: unless you think we should Ben_harrison: (i dont think your medkit will help him) Alphonse: (im the doctor here ben fuck off and go deliver mail) Igfig: well actually, now that I think about it Alphonse: yar Igfig: let's do this Gumshoe style Alphonse: *applies csi glasses* Alphonse: actually I DO put on special zooming glasses Alphonse: like a magnifying glass but attached to glasses Igfig: you'll get the most obvious and straightforward clues just by examining him Igfig: but you can do a challenge to dig deeper, see if you can pick up anything else Alphonse: alright Alphonse: first I'm going to do a cursory examination Alphonse: look around for bruises or anything Igfig: well, he definitely died by drowning Alphonse: then I'll launch the challenge Ben_harrison: will i have to conflict for mail? Igfig: no Alphonse: you will not Ben_harrison: cool Mordecai: You are the best mail carrier, no one would dare conflict your mail carrying prowess. Alphonse: mord knows whats up Igfig: well, there are some obvious bruises on his collarbones and his back Alphonse: ill challenge those in a second Alphonse: first I look at his legs Alphonse: are there any rope marks? Alphonse: I suspect he may have been weighted into the river Igfig: doesn't look like, no Alphonse: alright Alphonse: then lets CHALLENGE Igfig: All right! Alphonse: mordecai get me some doctoring music Mordecai: Um. Alphonse: so i roll acuity and will? Alphonse: or heart Jacob_Quinn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrIhQMr1Q10 Alphonse: that was quick Alphonse: sure this works Mordecai: I haven't a thing for doctoring music. Alphonse: jacob has us covered Alphonse: what am i rolling ig? Alphonse: wait no there are lyrics Igfig: Acuity + Heart Alphonse: THIS DOESNT WORK AT ALL Alphonse: 8d6 Dogtuna: Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 2, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6] Mordecai: Uh oh, lyrics. Alphonse: 2d6 doctors kit Dogtuna: Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 2, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6] Jacob_Quinn: Oh I just grabbed the first house theme. Jacob_Quinn: I'll get the wordless one. Igfig: 4d6 + 5d10 Dogtuna: Igfig's pool is [1, 2, 3, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 10] Alphonse: damn Igfig: oof Jacob_Quinn: Though it's only 30 seconds. Alphonse: dang Jacob_Quinn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6zJ9dEwNek Mordecai: Yeah, sin has escalated to murder now, we're in deep. Alphonse: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKPui_i4Zfg Alphonse: alrighty Alphonse: i got the perfect music for this Igfig: okay, so who should start do you think? Alphonse: I would I imagine Igfig: aight Alphonse: so first I'll roll 2d10 for being an educated doctor Alphonse: 2d10 Dogtuna: Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6, 10] Alphonse: WOO Igfig: right on Alphonse: so first Alphonse: I pull out my equipment from my medkit and begin zooming and looking over the bruises along his back Igfig: k, raise Alphonse: how long they are, how rough, what ankles and where they are Alphonse: RAISE 3 4 Dogtuna: Raised 7. Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 2, 4, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6, 10] Alphonse: angles* Igfig: Tempted to reverse the blow, but not sure how to make it work in this context... Alphonse: ;;;))))))) Alphonse: screw you mibbit Alphonse: ruining my dastardly winky face Igfig: I guess I'll just have you not be able to get much from them Igfig: SEE 10 Dogtuna: Reversed the Blow for 10! Igfig's pool is [1, 2, 3, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6] Mordecai: I don't think it would make much sense in this context, a block makes sense, also geeze I just realized how good your rolls were. Alphonse: yeah i was thinking the block makes more sense here Igfig: well, I was thinking like Alphonse: if theywere postules and they exploded on my face Alphonse: thatd be reversing Igfig: They're small and round, and there's a fair number of them Alphonse: hm Igfig: but other than that, you don't get much Alphonse: alright Alphonse: sure ill take that Alphonse: you know i think that if in the proper range those could be finger marks Igfig: Small like an inch in diameter Alphonse: yar Alphonse: could be fingers Igfig: Also, I'm thinking that maybe for an investigative thing like this, it almost makessense for me to not actually take any turns, and just respond to what the investigator does Alphonse: that works Alphonse: so ill raisesome more Igfig: although hm, one problem Alphonse: is he wearing the same clothes as he died one? Alphonse: in* Igfig: what do I do with the die from this reversed blow? Alphonse: hold them for your next see? Alphonse: PUT the 10 back in Alphonse: and see add it to the next Igfig: sure Igfig: PUT 10 Dogtuna: Added [10] to pool. Igfig's pool is [1, 2, 3, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 10] Alphonse: if the see is below 10 then you just usethat 10 again Alphonse: and thats the full use of the 10 Alphonse: so anyways Alphonse: is he in the same clothes? Igfig: yeah, that works Alphonse: or did they dress hi in soemthing else Igfig: One sec, I gotta check Alphonse: ??? Alphonse: okay Igfig: if people tend to own more than one set of clothing Alphonse: oh well they would yeah Alphonse: im just not sure if theyd waste the clothing like that Mordecai: There is also the issue that dead bodies left in rivers tend to swell and puff up quite disturbingly and largely. Alphonse: yeah Alphonse: not sure if he was left in it though Igfig: hmm Mordecai: They'd probably have a hard time taking the clothes off, let alone putting any new clothes on. Alphonse: yeah Mordecai: Which leads to another question then: Igfig: you could cut the clothes off I guess, but putting them on... Mordecai: How swollen is he from his time in the river, I don't know if that would do a whole lot of info but yar. Alphonse: it would mordecai Alphonse: itd give us most importantly Alphonse: a time of death Alphonse: so Igfig: well, raise and I'll answer a question Alphonse: I examine the swelling and state of trigor mortis to see if i can identify a time of death Alphonse: RAISE 10 6 Dogtuna: Raised 16. Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 2, 4, 4, 4, 4, 6] Alphonse: mordecai now i could use your help if you have a trait to throw in for me Alphonse: or jacob Igfig: SEE 10 6 Dogtuna: Blocked for 16. Igfig's pool is [1, 2, 3, 6, 6, 6, 6] Mordecai: Hmmm.. Jacob_Quinn: I can bring in my d6 trait for tinkering. Jacob_Quinn: I guess. Alphonse: not sure if thatd apply Jacob_Quinn: I do have a good eye for small details. Alphonse: unless you can use it to remove his clothes Mordecai: I'm not entirely sure what I have that would apply. Igfig: You're pretty sure that he died around midnight, maybe 1:00 Jacob_Quinn: Hahaha. Alphonse: sleight of hand to cut the clothes off without harming the body Jacob_Quinn: i have a knife and good hands? Alphonse: hey use that jacob Jacob_Quinn: Coold. Alphonse: use both of thoseand help me for my next raise Jacob_Quinn: Cool* Jacob_Quinn: 1d6 Dogtuna: Jacob_Quinn's pool is [3] Alphonse: dang Jacob_Quinn: 1d6 Dogtuna: Jacob_Quinn's pool is [3, 6] Mordecai: Raising dogs doesn't help, skilled hunter maybe? Alphonse: PUT 3 Dogtuna: Added [3] to pool. Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 6] Alphonse: PUT 6 Dogtuna: Added [6] to pool. Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6] Alphonse: well that 6 helps Jacob_Quinn: CLEAR Igfig: also, for the clothes I guess they cleaned his clothes as best they could without taking them off Jacob_Quinn: END Dogtuna: Jacob_Quinn's pool has been cleared. Alphonse: ok so am Alphonse: alright Alphonse: so around 1am Alphonse: that helps Alphonse: hm Mordecai: Proficient cook isn't much help, knowledge of herbs and plants doesn't look like it will be useful. Alphonse: I feel around the clothing to see if i can feel where the clothing is wet, more up top around the head or evenly as if he went swimming Alphonse: RAISE 5 5 Dogtuna: You can't Raise with dice that aren't in your pool, Alphonse. Alphonse: oops Mordecai: Navigator nope, reading nope, waiting for the proper time not really, learning to talk to people nope. Alphonse: RAISE 4 4 Dogtuna: Raised 8. Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 6, 6] Mordecai: Barton isn't going to be helpful. Igfig: SEE 2 6 Dogtuna: Blocked for 8. Igfig's pool is [1, 3, 6, 6, 6] Igfig: Well, his clothing isn't wet any more Alphonse: actualy ig~ Igfig: oh? Alphonse: its not wet really Igfig: I wasn't done Alphonse: old clothing got really firm and tough Alphonse: stiff Alphonse: after it were wet if it were not properly dried Igfig: oh Igfig: interesting Alphonse: what were you going to say before i said that? Igfig: Well, he got wetter on his back than his front Alphonse: hmm Igfig: and what I was going to say was Alphonse: thats interesting Igfig: you notice that he has some contusions on the back of his head Ben_harrison: well if i were there i could dig for clues Alphonse: concusions? Mordecai: Contusion. Alphonse: whats a contusion? Ben_harrison: but i am mailing Mordecai: a region of injured tissue or skin in which blood capillaries have been ruptured; a bruise Igfig: oh wait, not contusions... Alphonse: oh Igfig: I forget the word I was thinking of Ben_harrison: laceration Igfig: bad scrapes Alphonse: alright Alphonse: hmmm Igfig: well, more than that Alphonse: how would he drown if he were more wet on his back Igfig: like, if you bashed someone on the back of the head Alphonse: alright Igfig: that kind of wound Alphonse: did it rain at all this past week in the game? Igfig: not a huge one, and not lethal though Igfig: nope Alphonse: like in green creek Alphonse: or whatever Alphonse: okay Igfig: and you've only been away a day Alphonse: alright Alphonse: so ill raise with... Alphonse: RAISE 4 3 Dogtuna: Raised 7. Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 2, 4, 6, 6] Igfig: by the way, you've only checked the bruises on his back so far Alphonse: i see if i can place my fingers exactly into the circular bruises Igfig: there were some on his collarbones as well Alphonse: alright Igfig: anyway Igfig: SEE 1 6 Dogtuna: Blocked for 7. Igfig's pool is [3, 6, 6] Igfig: The bruises on his back don't seem to be in any pattern. They're mostly on his upper back, and largest there Alphonse: they dont fit into someone like Igfig: although they aren't all of the same size Alphonse: holding their hands against the back? Igfig: nope Alphonse: hmm Alphonse: alright Igfig: they look kinda randomly distributed Alphonse: thats so weird Alphonse: alright Alphonse: I examine the bruises around his neck finally Alphonse: RAISE 6 6 Dogtuna: Raised 12. Alphonse's pool is [1, 1, 2, 4] Ben_harrison: draw a face on his butt Igfig: SEE 6 6 Dogtuna: Blocked for 12. Igfig's pool is [3] Igfig: These ones could be hands Alphonse: alright Alphonse: i think i may know what occured Igfig: though they're on his collarbone and a bit on his shoulders, not his neck Igfig: there are some scratches on his shoulders too Alphonse: alright Igfig: aright, you've got about one thing left you can investigate Igfig: or I guess you could leave that for later Ben_harrison: (his butt) Alphonse: finally, I have jacob cut off the clothes and i give a look along his spine, annd uhh something im forgetting i suppose since igfig is mentioning it? Igfig: so if you get an idea of something to check you can come back and automatically get a good result Igfig: no, I mean I have one die left Alphonse: aah Igfig: after that, I'm out of dice Alphonse: alright lets end now Alphonse: and i can save that last dice there to come back if i want to see something Alphonse: I cover the sheet over him to prevent bugs getting at him while we are gone Alphonse: currently my theory Alphonse: is that someone, maybe not constance Ben_harrison: sam did it Alphonse: found hamilton at the river Igfig: hmm, interesting thought about these investigation challenges... maybe other players should be able to help the opponent, so the investigator can keep looking for as long as he has dice Alphonse: and pushed him down into the water Alphonse: where the bruises on his back occured from rocks on the riverbed Alphonse: the bruises on his coller and shoulders are from their hands holding him under water Alphonse: thus the water on his back, the bruises on his back, and the bruises on his shoulders Mordecai: Like, we raise with a question and then he Sees with his investigation and answer? Igfig: That seems consistent with all the evidence, Alphonse. Sounds like a solid theory. Mordecai: I dunno, this game's system seems best set for interpersonal conflict, so far in our play time anyways it seems shaky when it comes to stuff like this. Alphonse: theyd have to be reasonably strong to keep him held under the water Alphonse: especially with flailing or something Jacob_Quinn: Not necessarily if they caught him by surprise and he hit his head. Alphonse: the bash on the back of his head may have been an initial smack in the head to get him under Alphonse: yeah Igfig: I mean, Mord, like you could invoke one of your traits and narrate helping prepare the body or something, and then you'd add your dice to my side Igfig: and yeah, the system is not good for player vs environment Mordecai: Yar but, I dunno, giving you dice is both bad and good? Sorta. Yar. Igfig: and yes, the person would have had to be fairly strong to bruise like that and hold him under Alphonse: was it ever made clear of constance was a big woman? Mordecai: It's a weird thing. Igfig: She is quite large, yes Mordecai: Yeah she was pretty big, and so was her shotgun. Alphonse: well that keeps our theory consistance Alphonse: and also rules out samuel, ben Igfig: and yeah, it would be weird... you'd want to use small dice instead of big ones, which is odd Alphonse: as samuel is a tiny baby and not strong enough to hold hamilton under water Ben_harrison: (TOTES SAM) Alphonse: sighing Alphonse: well thats that for my investigation Alphonse: i pack up my medikit Mordecai: Or maybe we'd go with the big dice, and we go with the opposite of the number we get? But then it'd still be better to go with small dice. Alphonse: we can think about that later me thinks Alphonse: discuss it in the skype Igfig: I'll have to think about it more later, yeah Igfig: *we Igfig: anyhoo Mordecai: Like, maybe we try for the bigger dice, and the number we get would be subtracted from a set number perhaps. Igfig: what do we want to do now Alphonse: i say we Alphonse: should check the river first Alphonse: see if we can find blood anywhere Ben_harrison: mail Alphonse: and after that Alphonse: question our suspect Alphonse: however Alphonse: HOWEVER Alphonse: if we go to constance first Alphonse: we may get her before she hides evidence Jacob_Quinn: She seems very likely to try to kill us. Jacob_Quinn: So that should be our last stop. Alphonse: yeah lets be careful about that Alphonse: i dont want her hiding evidence Jacob_Quinn: She drew a gun on us for trying to get her daughter married. Alphonse: her clothes drying properly for example Ben_harrison: i want to do mail Jacob_Quinn: Accusing her of murder will likely not be better. Alphonse: we should get evidence first Alphonse: lets go to the river Alphonse: all agree? Ben_harrison: :( Jacob_Quinn: Deal. Alphonse: sorry ben Alphonse: we will deliver mail after we catch the murderer i promise Ben_harrison: hmph Alphonse: i promise bby <3 Alphonse: WARP TO SCENE OF THE CRIME Jacob_Quinn: I will write a letter and you can deliver it to Alphonse. Igfig: Aight Alphonse: ok i just need to stop a second to say that thats hilarious Mordecai: I bring Barton in to smell Hamilton before we leave for the river. Alphonse: and we would be treating ben like a dog Ben_harrison: ahaha Alphonse: like "ooh look ben! Mail! Deliver it to alphonse over there!" Alphonse: ben runs over and hands it to me Alphonse: i give him a treat Alphonse: open it and it says "ur cute" Jacob_Quinn: Ben, Ben, where's Alphonse? Where's Alphonse? Ben_harrison: well i am a dog Jacob_Quinn: Go get Alphonse. Alphonse: ok ok lets go to the river now Alphonse: barton smelled the body Igfig: okay, to the river Alphonse: he's no bloodhound but maybe he could find some scraps or something Alphonse: so first lets have barton sniff around here Mordecai: That was the plan. Mordecai: Did we ever ask who found the body? Igfig: I'm not entirely sure how this would all work Alphonse: lets keep it away from a challenge for our initial look Alphonse: its more mordecai's job here Alphonse: hes the hunter Alphonse: hunt for scraps and clues Alphonse: foot prints especially would be useful Igfig: but he picks up the scent somewhere around a small bridge at a narrower spot on the river Igfig: as you arrive, you notice someone already there Ben_harrison: it is paul Igfig: Brother Derrick, the steward Alphonse: hes moping Alphonse: "Ho! Brother Derrick!" Igfig: He comes toward you, his face solemn. Alphonse: "Too nice of a day for the events of late hm?" Igfig: "Hello, brothers. Yes, indeed. Though do let me congratulate you on a job well done." Igfig: "I was just having a look at where Brother Hamilton died. Such a shame." Alphonse: "Yes we were here to do the same thing, give our respects you see" Alphonse: maybe its best not to tell the steward it was almost definitely murder" Alphonse: oops Alphonse: no i didnt say that outloud Mordecai: "Hopefully with Jack and his brigands gone the town will sleep easier, but with this happening I doubt it will be for a while yet." Igfig: He points out a place at the far end of the bridge, where part of the wooden railing is broken. "Look, here. This must have crumbled under his grip, dropping him into the river. I blame myself, really. This bridge really should have been renovated years ago." Alphonse: "Ah don't worry yourself Brother, bridges are hardly a priority with bandits looming over your town" Alphonse: "You did your best in a very tough situation, I'm sure the towns people don't blame you" Mordecai: "And you should not blame yourself brother." Alphonse: "If you'll excuse us though I think we'd like to have a look over there" Igfig: "I suppose so, I suppose so. Well, I'll leave you to your thoughts then." Alphonse: "good day brother" Igfig: He nods and heads back into town Alphonse: alright Alphonse: so whats barton find along here? Alphonse: before we take a look at the railing Alphonse: and mordecai do you spot any footprints around? Igfig: looks like yeah, that's where he fell from Mordecai: It's a bridge, chances are there are quite a few if this is the primary crossing point. Alphonse: yar but with the murder i doubt many would come here Alphonse: demons and whatnot Alphonse: theyd be nervous Mordecai: True, but the weather has been dry, so the ground would be tough. Barton can sniff around for Hamilton's scent, but yar. Alphonse: dust prints? Igfig: there's some mud on the riverbanks, in any case Igfig: not a lot, but some in places Alphonse: damn this dry weather Igfig: or at least, soft earth Mordecai: So we shall check those sections then, if we can spot anything that was by Hamilton and anything that is from someone else, we might be able to pick up the scent for the other person. Alphonse: yar we should definitley check Alphonse: how high is the bridge igfig? Alphonse: im wondering about the railing breaking Alphonse: or if the scene of the crime was somewhere else and the body was moved here Igfig: High enough that a smallish boat could get under comfortably in the middle... maybe 2m? Igfig: lower at the sides of course Alphonse: alright Igfig: The railing doesn't actually look to be terribly fragile Alphonse: hm Alphonse: maybe broken then Mordecai: A fight perhaps. Igfig: old, but mostly sturdy Alphonse: maybe the back of his head was smacked on the railing Alphonse: i still think the scene may have been somewhere else entirely Igfig: and Mordecai, near where the railing is broken Mordecai: Or he was shoved through the railing by ssomeone else. Igfig: you find Will Smith Alphonse: waahtwat Igfig: or to be precise, fresh prints Alphonse: GOD Alphonse: DAMMIT Alphonse: IM Alphonse: DONE Dogtuna: Alphonse's pool has been cleared. Alphonse: BYE Alphonse: OH MY GOD Mordecai: This reaction is priceless. Alphonse: i cant deal with such a sudden pun Jacob_Quinn: Hahahahahaha. Alphonse: this was not a pun enviroment Alphonse: this is a murder Mordecai: (It's always a pun environment.) Ben_harrison: dude i have been punning on dig all night Igfig: in any case, a footprint Jacob_Quinn: Have you even WATCHED CSI? Mordecai: Which makes sense cause the pun killed you. Alphonse: investigate on your own im drowning my sorrows in a glass of milk Igfig: not a terribly distinct one, unfortunately Igfig: but you can tell it's not all that big Ben_harrison: dig my heel, dig for clues Ben_harrison: i am a digging machine Igfig: probably from either a small man or a medium-sized woman Alphonse: ive never actually watched csi before jacob Mordecai: I'll have Barton sniff it then, we've been around town, and Barton was trained for the hunt, he may recognize the smell. Mordecai: Especially if he relates the smell to someone he'd dislike, such as someone who threatened me. Igfig: hmm Mordecai: (With a gun.) Mordecai: (Nudge nudge.) Ben_harrison: sam didnt threaten you tho Igfig: He tracks the smell back across the bridge, but at that point it gets too muddled up with other people's comings and goings Alphonse: so its someone from town at least? Mordecai: Alright, so he has a lock on the smell, just not around here. Igfig: looks like, yeah Jacob_Quinn: Hey I gotta roll fellas. Alphonse: we can go visit the wife then Jacob_Quinn: SOLVE THIS MURDER. Alphonse: alright see ya jacob Alphonse: we will Alphonse: we will Jacob_Quinn: Evening. Igfig: bye Jacob Jacob_Quinn quit. Alphonse: if we visit wife and barton senses the smel Alphonse: then we can take care of it there and then Alphonse: igfig question, the answer is probably yes buttt Alphonse: have you already got all the details of the murder worked out? Igfig: yep Alphonse: neato Igfig: well, most of em Alphonse: thats exciting Mordecai: It'd be silly not to have them worked out. Alphonse: its all here we just need to solve it Igfig: I know who did it and how Alphonse: its like clue with more idiots right now Ben_harrison: another yes question: Ben_harrison: was it sam Igfig: but there are some specific details I've had to fill in to account for things I hadn't thought of Igfig: no comment Alphonse: alrighty Alphonse: well lets head to Alphonse: well actually Alphonse: i say we should get a sheriff or something if they have one Alphonse: because honestly i dont doubt it was constance Igfig: closest thing they have is the Steward Igfig: bro Derrick Alphonse: i think we have this in the bag with the scent Alphonse: barton is gunna sense it Alphonse: actually Alphonse: lets go to cosntance Igfig: okay Alphonse: under the cover of apologizing for the death of her Alphonse: uh Alphonse: husband in law? Alphonse: what would that be called Alphonse: brother in law? Alphonse: whatevre Alphonse: if barton senses it Igfig: son in law? Alphonse: we will know Igfig: oh wait hmm Alphonse: but we can leave Alphonse: and come back with help Igfig: maybe cousin-in-law? Alphonse: maybe Alphonse: for now though lets head over with mord Igfig: okay Ben_harrison: :( Alphonse: ben the mail comes after the murder Alphonse: maybe not alphabetically Alphonse: but here it does Ben_harrison grumbles Igfig: so you're at sister Constance's house Alphonse: yar Alphonse: we knock on the door Mordecai: Don't worry Ben, the mail isn't going anywhere, partially because you aren't delivering it. Ben_harrison: :( Alphonse: w o w Alphonse: that was harsh Ben_harrison pees on Mordecai Mordecai: (Sorry, couldn't resist) Mordecai: It was one of those but technically statements that I like, and then I dunno. Igfig: Aight, Constance answers the door Alphonse: "Hello constance" Ben_harrison: yo whattup Mordecai: "Greetings sister Constance, we come bearing grave news." Alphonse: "We're just here to express out sincerest apologies at the loss of your {WHATEVER HAMILTON WAS GOING TO BE}" Igfig: "Yep. What d'you want?" Igfig: (that line goes before you said what you wanted) Alphonse: "We know you weren't too fond of him but condolences are still necessary we believe" Mordecai: "And we did not know if you had heard of it yet." Igfig: (also I kinda forget how Sister Constance talks, one sec) Alphonse: pftt Ben_harrison: npcs have different voices? Alphonse: of course Alphonse: see this is me imitating paul Mordecai: Why wouldn't they? Alphonse: isnt it such a great imitation? Alphonse: but now im barton Alphonse: woof im a dog Mordecai: That's a terrible Barton. Alphonse: like you could do better Ben_harrison: oh oh Ben_harrison: play me Alphonse: Hi I'm ben Alphonse: uncanny right Ben_harrison: when have i ever said "hi" Ben_harrison: ever Mordecai: Plus you capitalized the hi and I. Ben_harrison: ^ Igfig: "Sure, I'd heard. Terrible tragedy for poor Sister Judith." She does sound sorry about it, in fact. Alphonse: hm Mordecai: Ben has no need for such frivolous things as capitalization. Igfig: "Can't say I feel too bad about it on my own account, but it'll be hard for her having just Samuel to help her run the store." Ben_harrison: Mordecai knows whats up Alphonse: "What have you thought of the marriage during the days that have passed?" Alphonse: "Have you come more accustomed to the idea?" Igfig: (it's been one day I think) Alphonse: oh Alphonse: i thought id been two or 3 Ben_harrison: all i cap is what irc caps for me Mordecai: I think a better question might be to ask if we can have a reprieve on that deal we made with her, as Sam, nor anyone for that matter, would feel all that up for anything so soon after their father's death. Alphonse: yar my question was me thinking that it had been a bit longer Alphonse: not sure if i wanna ask that now Mordecai: Also I check up with Barton. Igfig: "The marriage'd have to be off now, wouldn't it? Can't be leaving Sister Judith all alone." Alphonse: ohhhh Alphonse: that was her plot Alphonse: lets have barton take a sniff Alphonse: theres the motive guys Ben_harrison: sams plot Alphonse: barton take a wiff Alphonse: 1d20 incredible wiff of a sniff Dogtuna: Alphonse's pool is [2] Alphonse: PFT Alphonse: DONE Dogtuna: Alphonse's pool has been cleared. Igfig: Barton does not smell anything particularly exciting Ben_harrison: have him sniff sam Alphonse: so basically Alphonse: barton does not sniff constance? Igfig: well, constance's smell is not the smell he smelled at the bridge Alphonse: hmmm Alphonse: im still so sure its her Ben_harrison: SUCK Ben_harrison: IT Alphonse: the motive and evidence all point to it Alphonse: lets ask to speak with edwina Alphonse: maybe he heard her mother leave last night Alphonse: she* Mordecai: "We still think a marriage between your daughter and Sam would be good, though he'll likely be taking stewardship over his own home now instead of yours. We hope that would help improve your standing on the idea." Igfig: Sure, she's doing something or other taking care of one of her younger siblings Alphonse: "Would it be okay if we could speak to edwina about this now that the wedding may be off?" Igfig: "Hmm. Well, if that's the case... I suppose I could see that working out.: Igfig: "If you like." Alphonse: idk man im starting to think it wasnt her but IM ALSO SO SUREEEE Igfig: edwina is in the next room over Igfig: she comes in upon hearing her name Ben_harrison: it was soo sam Igfig: "Oh, hi Mr. Dogs! I heard you fought a bunch of bandits and won?!" Alphonse: "We sure did hun" Alphonse: is constance still here Ben_harrison: "yes" Mordecai: Yup. Igfig: Yep Alphonse: "Mind if we speak to her alone?" Mordecai: "You shouldn't have to worry about any more raids happening here anymore." Alphonse: surely she has things to do ruunning a farm Alphonse: and cant waste any more time talking to dogs Igfig: Constance thinks for a moment. "Suppose it couldn't hurt." She goes off to tend to farm-related business Igfig: . Alphonse: god damn Alphonse: "Edwina did you hear anything unusual last night?" Igfig: "No. Should I have?" Alphonse: WELL IM STUMPED Alphonse: "Was your mother busy at all yesterday evening? Alphonse: i dbout it was sam Igfig: "Mother's always busy." Alphonse: "Really? How late was she up last night?" Mordecai: "I'm sure, this farm must take a lot of work." Igfig: (there are no clocks here) Alphonse: yeah im thining she could answer like Igfig: "I don't know, a few hours after dark?" Alphonse: 2 hours after edwina went to bed or something Alphonse: is it mid summer by any chance igfig Igfig: "She went to bed about the same time I did." Ben_harrison: (IT WAS SAM) Alphonse: sam does have a motive... Igfig: She went to bed at a time that's fairly late, but earlier than the murder would have been Alphonse: hmm Alphonse: iidk Alphonse: maybe we should question samuel again Mordecai: I don't think this is a case of patricide though, I mean he sorta has a motive? I guess. Alphonse: yeah Alphonse: he was angry at his dad Ben_harrison: have barton sniff him Igfig: agh goddamn it somebody say a line we can end this session on Alphonse: and the wedding he was against that Ben_harrison: PISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Mordecai: Also hurrah, I got to use patricide in a sentence. Ben_harrison: hows that Alphonse: maybe we should question samuel Alphonse: or Mordecai: I learned that word from Rogue Legacy. Igfig: "If it wasn't Constance... then who was it?" Igfig: something like that Igfig: SMASH TO BLACK Ben_harrison: IT WAS SAM Alphonse: i want to compare the size of the hand marks on the body igfig Alphonse: lets warp back there Igfig: okay Alphonse: are they by any chance Mordecai: Wait no, I didn't learn patricide from Rogue Legacy. Igfig: seriously though I am getting sleepy so I want to end this soon Alphonse: smaller than condances or whatever her name is Mordecai: I learned paterphobia from rogue legacy. Alphonse: ya Alphonse: if the hand marks are about samuel sized Igfig: The hand marks are, hmm, it's hard to tell because they're rather irregular Alphonse: i place my own hands over them Igfig: but they're larger than Sam's you think Alphonse: since constance is about my size in the hand department Ben_harrison: its sam Mordecai: Either way though, Igfig totally played us with our expectations. Alphonse: hmm Alphonse: what other characters ARE there Ben_harrison: played you Alphonse: there has to be someone we are looking Alphonse: not samuel Alphonse: not constance Alphonse: but then who Igfig: that's a suitable ending line Igfig: SMASH TO BLACK
