Day 1 Night

[12npcs]

[ Over the murmur of conversations, explorations and violent attempts at escape, there comes a sound tick tick tick tick tick.............. CLICK.... The sky above snaps across the dome from blue to black... and everything goes dark.

A glow comes from the front door of each of the inns and one by one, you can see street lanterns begin to light up steadily past each of the gates.

The only flickering, organic light comes from above in the tower, spluttering high, high above everyone, through the slats of the closed shutters. After a moment, it's gone. ]

[lol Remington lol]

You, at least, for sure. That's good enough.

We can worry about it when it comes to that.

Re: [Back in the Crossroads of Comet and Gallows...]

[soul_sister]

[PULLS ON YOUR FACE] How exactly is THAT good enough?

Who's going to believe me about any of this?

[WHAT WAS THAT USE THE LEFT HAND? TUG HARDER?] So what? We bring back proof! I'll sling it on their desk and let them try to deny that it was something ridiculous and not our fault at all like this.

[THAT'S NOT HOW THIS WORKS

Shoving her off none-too-delicately, huffing irritably]

Re: [Back in the Crossroads of Comet and Gallows...]

[soul_sister]

[Sitting up and HUFFING.]

ANYWAY.

Re: [Back in the Crossroads of Comet and Gallows...]

[overclocking]

Anyway.

I think we should finish packing this up and do some more searching of our own. [Before you chew through any walls or buildings.]

Re: [Back in the Crossroads of Comet and Gallows...]

[soul_sister]

We should find out what everyone else has figured out too.

Re: [Back in the Crossroads of Comet and Gallows...]

[overclocking]

We should get everyone in one place and compare what we know.

Er... once they're done getting themselves into trouble.

Re: [Back in the Crossroads of Comet and Gallows...]

[soul_sister]

Let them! It's less we have to try. [Read as: Make you do.]

[Closes the ammo box and sighs]

You don't see me stopping them.

We might need to use this first aid kit at some point, though.

Re: [Back in the Crossroads of Comet and Gallows...]

[soul_sister]

We at least have a backup at this point. The girl is a herbalist.

Re: [Back in the Crossroads of Comet and Gallows...]

[overclocking]

[Does that mean someone besides me gets to do all the bandaging for once...]

Can she find the supplies she needs here?

Re: [Back in the Crossroads of Comet and Gallows...]

[soul_sister]

There is kind of a ... lack of real anything, isn't there?
