Posted March 24, 2022 Andante yawned, a tactic she used to use on road trips. Her ears popped and she sighed. Much better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2022 The descent is quick - Martin knows Nahl's habits, and this is definitely one of them. "Buckle up," he reminds everyone as they get closer. "You don't want to go flying when we land." 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 8, 2022 Queen hadn't unbuckled once during the flight, so she just mentally prepared herself for a rough landing, willing herself not to puke all over everything. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 8, 2022 Craven woke up, surprised to find that he had fallen asleep. He was glad that he had, even if he wished he could have slept through the landing. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 9, 2022 Three minutes after they touch down, Nahl walks into the cabin, opens the ramp, and says "You can leave now." 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 13, 2022 Ayia stood, stretched, cracked her back (VERY audibly), then reached out a hand for Queen. "You didn't even puke once! Nicely done." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 14, 2022 Queen shakily grabbed Ayia's hand, clutching onto it like a lifeline. "Don't speak too soon." 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 14, 2022 Craven tried unsuccessfully for a minute to undo his seatbelt, and when he finally did, he ripped his fingernail. Ow! Craven kept the thought inside. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 14, 2022 Andante unbuckled and stood up, her legs complaining. She stretched widely, then glanced around, noticing Craven. "You coming?" 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 15, 2022 Martin catches Nahl's eye. "Thirty minutes, and I'll have your payment." He turns to the rest of them. "Everyone good?" 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 15, 2022 “Yes.” Craven answered, to both Andante and Martin. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 25, 2022 Queen began being a little more steady on her feet and her nausea faded. "Can we get going?" 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 25, 2022 Craven nodded, ready to go. No one seemed to be taking the lead, and he figured Martin would, but Craven also just wanted to explore the unfamiliar land. "Let's go!" He began walking in no particular direction, away from the airplane. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 26, 2022 Martin leads the way out of the plane and makes a face as soon as he steps out of the shadow. It's very bright. Once he blinks a few times, and turns a slow circle to look around and get his bearings, he points east. "Quick hike that way." 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 26, 2022 Ayia bounced impatiently, longing to cast her Line. "Fiiiiiine." 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 26, 2022 Martin glances around at everyone. He knows they're probably itching to use their various talents. "Here's the plan. We go down there, I'm going to get something from a specific location, then we come back and give that thing to Nahl. Once she has that, and she's leaving, we need to go back to where we're going now, and you can get there however you want." 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 29, 2022 Quote I'ma timeskip the hike - there's not much interesting in middle-of-nowhere-maybe-Idaho. Martin's footsteps slow as they near the abandoned facility. It's not big - most of it is underground, and guarded to high heaven. But there are outbuildings above ground, and most of those are in some form of disrepair. The wind that rushes between those buildings stirs up dust, and his arm moves on instinct to lift a mask that he isn't wearing. "Home sweet home," he murmurs. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 29, 2022 "Once upon a time, this was the west of the United States," Martin tells Andante, weaving between buildings. "Not sure where exactly we are, but there's not much out here but rocks and dirt. Don't worry," he adds, turning to glance at Queen. "There's no one here. I should know." 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
