"Oh, okay." Moni frowned. "Where are these temples?"

Unintelligible took Sequence's hand and got back to his feet, wincing slightly as he put weight on his right foot. "Guess I bruised a bit more than my pride." He said, wincing slightly as he took a step. "Ouch."

"Somewhere. I didn't think this far ahead. Take us too..." he thought for a moment. "The Temple of Atreides. Do you know where that is?"

"Oh goodness, are you alright?" She suddenly looked much more worried, reaching out to offer support if he needed it. Less noticeably, she glanced around the party with an extremely worried look. "Do you need ice? To sit down? Whatever it is, it might be prudent to leave as quickly as possible."

"Nope. Never been one to do research on ancient temples." Moni pulled her pack off and started rifling through it. "I think I have a map in here somewhere though..."

Perseus sighed. "Can't give bloody directions on the Thread. It's near.... you know the Eternal Mountains? It's in that area."

[Keke They/he]

@xinoehp512 Did you fall asleep and not wake up?

does he have a job? That would explain the long periods of not being on.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, just twisted it." Unintelligible took another step, barely limping this time. "See? And why do I need to leave? Is something wrong?"

"Ah, got it." Moni pulled out a map and started examining it. "The Eternal Mountains? They're here. Let's see... the temple of Atreides? Ah, there it is. Shouldn't take to long to travel there."

No idea.

Give him some grace though. He already does so much on here.

he also probably can't meet the needs of a dozen Sharders who are angry at him for not being there every time we need a character and who are almost always constantly on. XD

There's lots of natural Nullite there btw. Ask @Through the Living Feather for the details.

"Can't you just, you know, portal us there?"

Well…

he needs to respond to everyone…

but he also needs to summarize everything.

I didnt mean that in a bad way, just curious, he’s like the responsible adult of this thread. Not that y’all aren’t responsible or anything.

"Um . . . I don't know?" She thought for a moment.

". . . Hang on. Stay there!" She walked a short distance away.

She pulled out her phone and called Beosta.

@Through the Living Feather

A ringing phone suddenly appeared in front of Beosta.

Nope

Beosta frowned. The reason it took her so long to answer was because she had to figure out how to use a phone. 

“What are you, eldrich demon?” She asked into the phone once she’d made it stop ringing. (Answered)

13 minutes ago, Sequence said:

 

Sequence laughed some more, slowly getting to her feet and extending a hand to Unintelligible. "Personally, I think bad dancing seems more fun than spinning in perfectly uneventful circles all night long."

Sequence's copy/hologram looked confused, glancing between him and Beosta. ".. Cardinal? He's been tending to the garden all night." She looked at Cardinal, who looked like he was about ready to pass out. "... Right?"

"Everyone made me do it!" He suddenly blurted out, pointing at Everyone. "They gave me the vial, they told me to spread it out and focus on people who weren't paying attention!" He immediately dropped his head into his hands and sobbed. Sequence looked at Everyone, her authority and confidence melting away. Everyone smiled, an unsettling, dark smile.

"Perhaps it's time for your precious party to end." Everyone hissed, their signature darkness creeping into their voice. "Wouldn't want people to start dying." With that, they vanished in a puff of black smoke.

Sequence looked a little dizzy, but snapped her fingers. Shoe's couch gently lifted into the air, and relocated a safe distance away. "Beosta, do me a favor please." She said shakily. "Go ahead and start asking people to leave, would you?"

"Thank you. That is all I ask."

“Yeah, okay.” She glanced around. “Once I finish this phone call. I’ll make it quick.”

"Heeeeeeeey Bea!" Tam said on the other side of the line. "How's Shoe?"

Gail nodded, even though she didn’t have a clue what Sasha was talking about. “Are those people? Your sisters?”

“Safren is—was?—my boyfriend. Maren and Jaz are friends. I don’t have sisters. Or family.”

And I’m never responsible! I’m too busy squealing over my latest triumph with Bea’s trauma WHICH IS ACTUALKY WORKING

Eldritch demon? Its interest has been taken.

Guys don’t worry I’m not adding itirSp in here.

Maybe.

12 hours ago, Sequence said:

“Ohh, I see now. Sequence must be aware you’re here then. I do not know why I was not.” The knife hummed and seemed to think to itself. “I’m sure she will greet you when she’s finished making a fool of herself.”

The woman shrugged and went back to standing around doing nothing.

12 hours ago, The Bookwyrm said:

Neither will I.

Then you will be destroyed. 

The anger began to burn.

that sounds even worse! Omg. look seraphina, as much as i am not suppoze to care I do to but I don't think this stupid buffon named Bacon can actually help anyone. He just pretends to but we deal with this with someone who can actually help Asher. like who cade? Who? Ashers alone. Who would help them? Asher took another deep breath before standing up. They looked at Bacon. "Thanks for making me forget whatever I ask you to make me forget." ugh this is going horriblely, now i know why people hate parties. 

"Well, you've found me out," Bacon said with a sigh. "I'm actually not that good at solving problems! Fortunately, I know people who are."

Only then did he realize that he was colorblind.

This revelation utterly shattered his worldview.

Well Ista kinda maybe fought the Destroyer, and she may or may not be strengthened by nearby emotions (and the destroyer tried to do the same to her soul that is being done to yours, which made her strengthened by the Destroyer’s presence, as well as allow her to manipulate it) so the anger entered her and is still inside of her.

But it’s fine! Maybe.

Ista is now immeasurably powerful, tho. (Ya know, immeasurably if ya aren’t counting Narrators or Ennulers and their like.)

Pyk nodded. “I understand. This is a fine point.”

it don’t really matter (I may or may not be planning the fall of his society [not to Tenth, tho])

Ahhh I’m on mobile so it’s difficult for me to do the dialogue

Tenth nodded, and looked around.  What next? 

That depends. How hungry are you?

Selppaenip appeared in front of a massive iron door, guarded by a dozen well-armed adventurers.

 

"I am here to meet with the Great Wizard!" he announced.

2 hours ago, NameIess said:

"Oh, he's dead. He was an evil wizard, as I said. Or, well, he was a sort-of evil wizard." Subversion shrugged. "Besides, you don't need it. You're actually a good person."

 

"Well, even good people can stand to lean things about themselves. Remarkable, really, how much we can miss that goes on literally inside our brains."

2 hours ago, NameIess said:

Unintelligible snorted. "I'm not completely without ego. Although to be honest, falling over is probably healthier for my pride than continuing to dance."

Moni folded her arms. "I'll go with you, but I'm doing so to make sure you don't go too far. If there's a way to save the Skavi and make certain that the demons can't hurt anyone else that doesn't involve killing them, then we'll do that instead. Killing for vengeance is not something I'm going to be a part of."

¨Bacon, spiders are not ten feet tall and neither are horses, usually.¨

Salem said, rolling her eyes.

"Well, this horse is," said Bacon. "So it's clearly possible."

11 hours ago, TwinStorm said:

Cricket closed his eyes. She sounded so earnest, so pleading... No. He would not, could not let Tam get hurt. "I'm sorry." he whispered, a final time, before stepping through the portal and closing it behind him.

He appeared in an old glade. It was random, but he needed time to think. Tam was so... No. He couldn't afford to think about Tam. That part of his life was over. He had no real plan how to fight back, but he had an idea. A desperate idea. He sighed, calling out an old name. "Bacon the Bard! Bacon the Bard! Bacon the Bard!" It was time to go to war.

@xinoehp512

The breadmunks pranced by with cupcakes. Confetti rained down. A song played very faintly. 

"What's up, Cricket?" asked Bacon. "How would you rate that summoning?"

[Through The Living Glass She/They]

Just now, Through the Living Feather said:

“Passed out on the couch. Can we make this quick? I gotta get people to leave before they all die.” 

"Oh! Of course!" she said cheerfully.

"Two things real quick; actually, three. One, when he wakes up would you tell him I'm going with Cricket to see the Dreamsmith; sorry if he freaks out. Two, maybe don't tell him for a bit just because he definitely won't be feeling good . . . anyway; and three, would you give him this phone? He's gonna need it."

 I could go either way. They didn’t really feed us much…
