"Should be some over that way. Course, they're doing plot right now. If you don't like plot, you probably want to avoid them at all costs." He continued munching on his scone.

Well, it didn't come up. 3 hours ago, Thaidakar the Ghostblood said: Thaidakar turned, "because I have excellent memory," he tapped his head, "comes with being a god and having access to lots of breaths and copper minds to store my memories in to be retrieved later. and if you are wondering my copper minds are spread out between my avatars so that I can still tap them to retrieve them." "Just because you remember the event well doesn't mean you interpret it correctly."

Someone squinted over at them. "Oh, I think that might actually be where I'm supposed to go? I was definitely supposed to go somewhere..." He trailed off. "Robin, do you want to come with? Maybe they know where a bakery is. Narrators are supposed to know lots of things." He left it unsaid that he didn't.

"Want some food? Always get a good meal in before messing with narrators. That's what my grandmother always said. Before she was narrated out of existence, that is."

xinoehp512 he/him Posted February 27, 2022 Posted February 27, 2022 Just now, Nameless said: I... alright. When does the survey end? I don't know! When the consultants have gotten all they need to know about you, I suppose.

Yes it- Moni ran into someone, knocking him over. "Oh, I'm so sorry!" Moni stuffed the paper into her bag. "Here, let me help you up." @AonEne

"I probably shouldn't need to eat, being one myself," he said, flushing. "But I'm not keen on messing around with this power much until I know what I'm doing with it, so yeah, I'll just take the muffin. Thanks." He took a bite of it and blinked. "Hey, that's really good. You make that?"

AonEne he/him Posted February 27, 2022 Posted February 27, 2022 Somebody knocked into him and he sucked in a breath, tumbling down. Luckily he was unhurt, and quickly jumped up on his own. "Oh! Uh, that's okay. That's fine." The muffin, unfortunately, was completely smushed in his hand. "Shoot," he muttered, eyeing it. He looked up at Moni, wincing. "Hey, hi. Um, are you a Narrator? I'm looking for someone, I think over there -" he nodded back in the direction of the others - "and Robin here is looking for a bakery." Probably shouldn't have said that all at once, but there it is.

That one over there would probably try and get you killed somehow. I don't know if there are any nearby bakeries, but there's one in Flaffle village a couple miles east of here." she pulled out a piece of paper and began writing on it. "Oh, and my name's Moni. What's your's?"
Going_North_cal Posted February 27, 2022 Posted February 27, 2022 Doomslug popped in and asked if this was a different plot.

Sorry I ruined your muffin." She dusted herself off, then jumped as someone else proffered a croissant.
Going_North_cal Posted February 27, 2022 Posted February 27, 2022 Doomslug glared at Moni, and asked again if it was a different plot.
