He should have thrown the knife, or at least turned and run. But he froze. Again. He was going to die. shoot him if you want wait yah 1 minute ago, Through The Living Glass said: Still breathless and dizzy, she Narrated the gun away, and a knife appeared, pressed to his neck instead. "Don't . . . touch them," she said rather shakily. Stone froze, showing genuine fear for once. He tried to Enull her, but found his power blocked by Cricket’s, who was still screaming. Then he shot Bat in the shoulder.

But nothing had happened. He frowned and examined his shoulder. The bullet had only pierced the first layer of skin— the tattoos in the area had collapsed in, as if they’d somehow kept the bullet out like some kind of armor. 1

It was all too much- Bat and Cricket in danger- not to mention herself- She just . . . reacted, releasing a burst of Narrative power without thinking about what she was actually doing. One moment, Stone was standing over Cricket, holding the knife, and the next- (TW: blood) Spoiler Well, needless to say that the rest of his body was no longer able to function, now that his head had completely vanished. His body thumped to the forest floor, blood pouring out and pooling around the neck.

A new level of horror glazed what had just happened. Oh, rax, he should have worried more. Focus. She wouldn’t hurt you. You know she wouldn’t… but ALL THAT BLOOD… She looks tired. What if she got hurt? She was with Cricket. Cricket would help her with that. He was her friend too, and probably a better one.

That was good, he thought to himself. He blew her hair off her face so she wouldn’t wake up with hair in her mouth, then sat back and busied himself with cleaning his dagger and sorting everything in his bag again.

He said, glimmers of hope shining in his eyes. “Mission?” He frowned. “What do you mean?” Well, I hope you don't imagine such a threat will go un-investigated. Plans are already being made to find and eliminate this mysterious entity of yours. On 12/30/2024 at 4:56 PM, Halcyon The Only said: She looked down at Qodi, digging her fingers into her fur. “Well, I couldn’t be a villain even if I wanted to be.” "I don't know." Nogard seemed thoughtful. "I think anyone could be a villain to someone, if they weren't careful." On 12/30/2024 at 5:52 PM, Dragonheir said: Rebus nods. “You have time to consider it. Short times can be long, and long short. It depends how much detail they contain.” “Of course.” Rebus smirks. “I’m made for it, now. What I need from this quest is buy-in and plot. The Dreamsmith’s trial doesn’t only forge the blade earned.” He briefly considers what his trial might be, then continues. “The item is acknowledged as powerful, meaning it is allowed to destroy, to defeat. Plotblades and Dreamsmith weapons are given much more leniency than Narration, less likely to be ignored or no-selled. Too much strength, unchecked, weakens your ability to make lasting impacts.” "So you want authority?" whispered the wind. "A piece of each of us, to tie us into your plots?"

Dropped as in people know it exists? yeah, a few do. Perseus included. Moni doesn't go to any effort to keep it secret. The Wise Judge stared at Selppaenip with utter confoundment. "Wizard," He said finally, turning his attention to the accused. "Are you certain you do not wish to request a different lawyer? This one does not seem... experienced." The Great Wizard remained silent, and eventually the Wise Judge sighed. "Very well. Which charges do you plead guilty to?" ... stood, repeating what he'd said to Selppaenip. The Wise Judge nodded. "In that case, we shall focus our trial on those claims you have pled not guilty to. Prosecution, call your first witness." The Adventurer's lawyer stood dramatically. "As my first witness, I call... Platypus!" @Ookla the Arbiter "He definitely existed." Subversion started writing in her book. "But I have no idea where he is right now, and can't find him without my Narration. Can't quite remember his lore either, aside from the dehydration problem." "You have to tell them," said 656, clutching Subversion's wrist and staring intently at her. Her earlier reticence seemed to have vanished completely. "You have to tell them I'm not crazy. Something took my brother. Erased him." On 12/30/2024 at 6:17 PM, NameIess said: "Um... sort of, yeah." The traveler opens her mouth to tell Nogard the truth about TLT so that she could see what he came up with, then freezes. Try as she might, she finds herself completely unable to force the words out. Huh. She put safeguards in? Smart. She covered her pause with a cough. "How've you been?" "As well as can be expected for someone who's been filling out paperwork for two hours." Nogard laughed ruefully. "You're lucky they didn't call you as a witness." 12 hours ago, Ookla the Irreplaceable said: Stone just smiled. What? Tam, listen, get Bat out of there, I’m coming! he said, standing straight up. “Sorry about this. I’ll be right back.” he said to the Enuller apologetically, before teleporting to them. Stone grinned, seeing Cricket appear. Excellent, then we can begin. Lennox… sorry about this, but I don’t keep my word. he said, forming a Darkforce cage around them. @Halcyon The Only The doctor sputtered furiously as Cricket vanished. 8 hours ago, Ookla the Irreplaceable said: Cricket sighed, relieved, and took Tam’s hand.Thank you. And well.. you wouldn’t mind making me an eyepatch, you know, well I don’t like having a gaping hole in my head. An Ennuller appeared from the Void, staring down at Cricket with his arms folded.
