The Longest Thread (Misadventures)

[Nameless* Steel Inquisitor]

"The One Power? That could be useful, I suppose. What else can you do?"

[Aes Sedai Wyrn the King]

Rue burps. “Bein’ able to kill with a thought, make people do wha’ I wan’, basically telepor’, an’ boss kings ain’t enough for ya? Fine. I got one of dos asha’man as a warder, and I don’t stay drunk for more’n 5 minutes. This’ll wear off soon.”

[Nameless* Steel Inquisitor]

"Ah. That's good. So you'll be ready for the attack?"

[Aes Sedai Wyrn the King]

“Of course!” Rue says, straightening, the fog clearing from her eyes. “Honestly, my warder should have known better than to let me drink this much root…oh, I see. He didn’t want me to come to the attack.”

[Nameless* Steel Inquisitor]

"Well, you can tell him not to worry. It's only one sort-of Narrator, and we've got a whole bunch of people lined up to help. This'll be easy."

[Aes Sedai Wyrn the King]

“Very well. We can have more root later. Where…” She frowns, looking for a platypus. “The one who summoned me is not here.”

[Nameless* Steel Inquisitor]

Untintelligible glanced around. "Hm. must've wandered off. I'm sure he'll be back in time for the attack."

[Being of Cacophony Arbiter]

You both jump as a platypus materializes in between you. "I have returned. Is everyone prepared for the attack? My allies have arrived, those who are coming at least."

[Nameless* Steel Inquisitor]

"Ah, excellent." Unintelligible grins. "Everyone, you ready?"

@Sequence

[Wits instant noodles Lighteyes]

Probably wont be very useful in battle do to bein a cripple but ill do what I can

[Being of Cacophony Arbiter]

"I believe Rym was joining us. Sorry I was late, I had to go grab my secret weapon. It was very important. Phillipe, you ready?"

"I was written ready boss. Let's do this."

"I take offense. The platypus wasn't going to lead you. I, Grand Marshall of Lore, Phillipe, am. We're waiting on a few of my allies. they should be along in a little bit. give it a few hours and then we'll go fight, with or without the ones who haven't showed up.

one of them is trying to convince chaos to remove his thing that makes it so mods have to approve his content. a few others haven't contacted me. if they don't, we'll continue the plot anyway.

This is not how moderation works, and will never be how it works. Popularity contests or campaigning for a such a thing will do absolutely nothing and actively hurt your case. Do not ever contact a mod because you want something lifted for a friend. Your input is irrelevant. 

If someone would like to make calls, you can apply to be a mod here: 

Otherwise, uh, please don't be an idiot about this. I doubt you even have much context for the events, you are just looking out for a friend, but please, this is incredibly dumb of you. Let the natural course of things happen, be mature, and be respectful.

huh? my friend is @Wits instant noodles. I wasn't trying to contact you. I was telling them that that's why i was waiting to start the plot here. sorry again, I didn't mean to ping you. Again, I wasn't trying to get you to lift his penalty, I was just explaining why I was waiting so sorry if that's what it looked like.

 

My apologies for accidentally summoning you completely unnecessarily. I'm just forgetful sometimes and forgot that you have a ton of stuff to do.

Well, for context, one of you in your group of friends did specifically PM me asking, which is very silly. Anyway.

"Ah, excellent." Unintelligible grins. "Everyone, you ready?"

@Sequence

Everyone nodded. "If this ends up being super easy, I̷̛̱̥͆'̸̘̤̿͝l̷̬̱̈́͗l̵̫͇̍ ̵̣̈́ḅ̷̺͐ë̷͚́ ̴̪͒m̵̡̏ḁ̵͋d̶̝̜̋."

[Nameless* Steel Inquisitor]

"Right. Let's go then, shall we?" Unintelligible paused. "Uh, so does anyone have a way of finding her? If not, I can try to use my powers to get us there."

[Being of Cacophony Arbiter]

"I maybe got this. I'll try narrating unless someone else wants to."

"Wait." Phillipe growls. "There is someone, or something, watching us, trying to see what we're doing. Does anyone else feel that?"

[Nameless* Steel Inquisitor]

Unintelligible paused. "Uh.... maybe? I have a creepy feeling. Like when you're in a dark alley, and you think you smell a plate of freshly baked cookies."

[The Bookwyrm Radiant Squire]

Rym fingered the hilt of his Mordite sword, ready to draw it if necessary.

Let's see where this goes.

Unintelligible stared at Rym's sword nervously. "So, platypus whatever-your-name-was, you ready to try that Narration?" 

[Being of Cacophony Arbiter]

"Welp, I'm only done this in a highly contained location and on accident, so standard disclaimer. This may not be entirely safe, blah blah blah, everybody ready? If you aren't, too bad."

As soon as platypus finishes speaking, they appear in a dark alley.

"Blast it Unintelligible," platypus says, looking around nervously. "You made me think of the Dark Alley. Let's try again before they notice us."

Suddenly our heroes appear in a dim, musty room in front of Subversion.

"SUBVERSION!!! YOUR CRIMES MUST CEASE!!!!! And also, we're being followed. Whatever was watching us is with us still. Rym, watch our backs. Make sure the whatever-it-is doesn't attack and harm us. Unintelligible, Rue, let's get this fool. Platypus, just, uh, make sure that we don't get ambushed. Use your Narration if you have too. Everyone, help out where you deem necessary. WE GOT THIS!!!!"

[The Wandering Wizard Savant]

Narrator Wizard punches the ground and vines burst from the ground, entangling Subversion.

[Being of Cacophony Arbiter]

Narrator Platypus yells as he is contained in a giant room. The room and vines start to fade as he is mysteriously getting choked.

 

@Ookla the Untitled, we need someone to be Subversion besides me, I'm bad at it.

Rym drew his sword from it's sheath on his back, spinning and watching for any danger. He activated his precognition.

"Let me know if there's anything else you need me to do!" he yelled to Phillipe.

[Nameless* Steel Inquisitor]

Subversion's illusion fades away, revealing the actual location that everyone is in.\

The landscape is broken, covered in green. Shapes move in the shadows around the group, shifting vines surround them. tentatively, one of the vines wraps itself around Rym's boot.

"Uh, guys? I don't think it worked." Unintelligible shooed a vine away from him, backing towards the rest of the group. "I don't know where we are, but I think we should probably leave before these plants get too hungry."

As he says this, a shriek sounds in the distance.
