The Longest Thread (Misadventures)

[Through the Living Shadow he/him]

Suddenly, a blue square of light opened, and out of it stepped a man in full plate, holding forth two blades. One glowed slightly, while the other was covered in a dark fog. The man spoke. He carried in tow a person, unrecognizable.
“I am the Baron of Wrath. Kneel before me, and I will spare you.”

He raised his glowing blade, and stabbed it into himself. He grinned as it passed through him seemingly harmlessly.

The Baron sheathed the light blade, then grabbed the person behind him, holding the dark blade up to the person. “I give you this one warning.”

I grew impatient

Zanitar ignored it focusing on the fight. Even so, the momentary distraction caused him to nearly get skewered by an adventurer.

Curse those people OA and I invited. I should've just done this with OA. We wouldn't even be in this situation.

What’s OA? Idk the background

OA is a character, the once author. (I think)

Zanitar continued ignoring what was happening behind him. He didn't have the energy to fight all these people and more. He was struggling against just these people! He also didn't know the potential victim, and thus, didn't really care about them.

 the Once-Author (@Ancient Elantrian's character). I got tired of writing that, so I write OA

Victim? Hehe… u have no idea. The key word is u don’t know them.

The Baron snarled. He ran the person through, and immediately, if they looked again, the people in the room could see that the person was actually a arachnidish. The Baron pushed the arachnidish towards the occupants of the room. The man grinned, then swallowed a small steel chip.

I don't think you realize that Zanitar gives 0 craps about what happens to most people. also, what room?

Zanitar didn't even see what had happened. He was a little busy fighting seven people at once, while the eighth went to reclaim his weapon.

No… I realize… but I’m more referring to the fact that the blade is more powerful the less is known about the victim. The Baron of Wrath split Plot Twists into two blades.

This got Qodi’s attention, but she’d prefer not to dig through human flesh to get to the stomach. 

Gail was horrified by the whole thing. The poor… uh… whatever it was.

Qodi snarled and went after the people that crazy dude was fighting. Mmm… she could smell a feast. 

She had one man down and bleeding in about ten seconds, then snuffled through his pockets and huffed. Just a couple of coins and a belt buckle. Oh well. She ate them.  

[Through the Living Elan He/Him]

The OA wrote frantically in the air. By waves attackers disappeared, whisked away into a pocket dimension. He summoned his semi-useless Authorblade, which sliced down around one in twenty people he attacked with it.

I really need a new sword.

Gail hurried over to him. Qodi apparently thought she could take care of herself. Which was ridiculous. 

“Who are these people?”

"The people we're fighting? Or like..." He gestures around at their group, "This hodgepodge poor excuse for an army?"

"They are the Council of Brave Adventurers. They're the 'bad guys', they want to use evil plotblades for what we're assuming are nefarious purposes. We are the 'good guys', we're fighting them, and have an extremely strange group of extremely strange people with extremely strange backstories."

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Nogard stared horrified at The Baron and his horrifying weapons of horror.

He grabbed his brother, who seemed to have been stunned speechless by events. "OA!" he called. "Can you make us an escape route?"

Qodi didn’t want to be left behind as a useless bunny again. She jumped up onto his shoulder, muscles shrinking and collapsing back into normal bunny skin.

"Possibly!" The OA calls back.

He pulls out a pen and starts writing frantically in the air. The air seems to be sucked out of the room and a flash of light explodes outwards, vaporizing everyone in their group.

They reformed far away on a cold mountain peak.

Gail shivered. “Okay. Well, maybe we can gather the plot holes and… lock them in a dungeon.” 

Qodi would have rolled her eyes if she thought that would be appropriate. She jumped to Gail’s shoulder, now rabbit sized again, dense muscles churning under her fur. They’d last until sometime tomorrow, if she used them carefully.

Zanitar disengaged, thankful for the rabbit's help, but aching and injured.

"No, they aren't the bad guys. Right now it seems like the Great Wizard is the bad guy, but I don't trust the Brave Adventurer. The Council seems good though, just misguided."

"Ah yes. Engaging the brave adventurers. I told you we couldn't win! But no, we had to fight them, and now we're freezing on a mountain," Zanitar grumbles under his breath. "What a great idea."

"No, we can't capture plot holes. They exist all over TLT and are baked into the cake now. And plotblades, which is what I assume you're talking about, would be near impossible to collect. You'd have to take them, probably by force, from some of the strongest characters in all of TLT. Good luck to the fool who tries it."

"Hey, I was under pressure. Give me time instead of starting a fight next time and I can take us to a beach in ubilaM."

At that last bit, Qodi looked away and scratched her ear innocently. 

[Through The Living Glass She/They]

Shoe went back to petting Qodi.

This was what I get for zoning out, he thought.

This is what I get for leaving for an hour, haha.
