    [OOC: You know, I would have been more inclined to be slightly less inclined to think the other Braized Ones are evil, but in truth, if they RNGesused for initial planet distributions, we're sod out of luck anyway, this is El, she's probably already shaking her head at me even daring to broach this line of reasoning, if Araris is playing (I can see you reading the thread anyway), I just gained disapproval points with Araris, and, the main reason I'm not in RP speak right now (not because of disapproval because sorry guys, I signed up to have fun, RP lets me have fun, different strokes for different folks) - Is to say- I do not for the slightest second believe she would not troll the chulls out of us just because she can. You hear that, Cursor of Doom? I don't trust you where trolling is concerned >:( Edited to add: Logic tells me that too many Odiants on Braize are unlikely - voting firepower and all. If there really are more Odiants of the two remaining on Braize, then we'll want to cross-reference that against the D1 events. Bus is not unlikely but bussing tells us something about the Elim team TTPs which is nevertheless informative. Anyway that's the logic end. Fear of Wilson and El's troll capacities has me shivering in a ball in the corner of my cupboard because holychullwhatwilltheydoeven]

    Almost, thought Tenth, as though people moving out of the Rosharan system was good anyway. It provided cover for Honour, and obscured targets. No one really wanted Odium unchained, free to bring his powers to bear on everyone. You never saw the deepfish when it swam among the gleamings.

    Tenth was taken aback. In all his time as a bounty hunter, in all his time as a trapper, or growing up on the Eelakin homeisles, he had never seen such a sight. A glowing portal opened up in the air, and a flurry of beardnuts glimmering with motes of sparkly glitterdust dropped out. A moment later, a spanreed dropped to the ground as the thunderous voice spoke up again, informing all watching that the spanreed had belonged to the deceased and unfortunate Siena Ashao [OOC: Mauve Crocodile.] HOPEFULLY, said the voice in parentheses, THIS CONTEST DOES NOT BREAK SAID SPANREED. IT IS, AFTER ALL, ONLY A SPANREED. Tenth of the Dusk eyed the spanreed. Kaikoa pecked at him. She wasn't going anywhere near the beardnuts. Tenth didn't blame her. What, exactly, had happened here?
  7. Azure Mouse
    There were, as far as Tenth knew, three people on Sel, but at this juncture, he felt just a little bad about outing the last person if that person wasn't saying they were on Sel. He did not think much hung on his refusal or his acquiescing, either way, but he did feel as though one had to have some principles somewhere. Even a bounty hunter had ethics. The other worldhopper [OOC: Turquoise Gorilla] had been a different matter. Tenth could not put his finger on why, exactly, but something about that worldhopper's demeanour left Kaikoa uneasy, and he trusted his Aviar's instincts. Perhaps it was how the worldhopper had been seeking those in contact with the Shard Prudence. Perhaps it was the way the other worldhopper had been seeking information others were willing to reveal. He did not think much hung on it - he had certainly been willing to say a number of times over the past day that he was wary of the other worldhopper, even though he could not quite find the words why. It was as though he was keeping an eye open for pit traps on Patji, all over again. Strange how his past as a trapper never seemed to really leave him. Even now. [OOC: tldr; if it's a big deal, I'll say it, but I don't like getting in the habit of saying stuff without checking in first unless I think something hangs on it. I've been a bit wary (light suspicion?) of Turquoise which is the only reason this has cropped up.]
  8. Azure Mouse
    [OOC: Storm it, you and Plum Rhino are making me sad I ran out of upvotes and I don't even know why. Anyway as mentioned previously, I'm on Sel along with Turquoise Gorilla. Sorry for outing you Turquoise since that kind of should've been your choice but since I complained about you previously in-thread, it should be fairly obvious we're on the same world and by transitivity, if I'm on Sel, so are you.]
  9. Azure Mouse
    Nothing particularly bad or dangerous about that occurred to Tenth. But Tenth's notion of danger had been forever shaped by Patji, which was not a standard that other worldhoppers necessarily found palatable. "If it makes you uncomfortable," he said, carefully, "Why not reveal the planet you're currently on? I expect a number of worldhoppers will shift worlds over the night, in any case, so this information will be a little dated. I have certainly declared my intention to do so to the others on my world." And probably publicly at some point, though Tenth admitted he was not very sure. He was certain that his quarry, the Alethi lighteyed man by the name of Kaddar, had long since left. Tenth was following a cold trail, but that was the challenge he'd been promised.

    Sucking on an egg, Tenth of the Dusk framed a request to be placed in contact [OOC: @Prudence, any luck? ] with the one who repeated words [OOC: Chartreuse Penguin, please. I've always loved penguins as a kid since I checked out a book on them from the library.] He wasn't really sure what Sir Brockett meant [OOC: on Kangaroo? To Kangaroo? Really?], though he suspected it was not impossible that some of them had chosen to throw their teammate to the nightmaws. If there had been any attempt to manipulate the voting, Tenth would've placed a slightly higher credence on the idea that no one had attempted to throw the Forger [OOC: Mauve Crocodile] to the nightmaws, but as it was, little enough information indeed. The events of the day would bear watching.

    As the discussions went on, and the worldhoppers began to suggest candidates for mobbing, Tenth wondered if it was better to know who was on Braize and who was on First of the Sun. Perhaps not everyone, but it certainly seemed relevant where any attempt to make sense of the voting was concerned. (Voting. They did things differently, off First of the Sun, but Tenth was still struggling to wrap his mind around the custom of voting for who you most wanted to kill instead of doing it yourself. After all, the Father had taught him this: if you wanted to kill a man, it was best he didn't see you coming.) Tenth's first vote for Vatorr Maj [OOC: Saffron Iguana] had gone overlooked, and to be honest, perhaps it was for the better. It was a single vote, and he was as the field mouse. Tenth did not pretend to anything else. He did not pretend his vote would condemn Maj, not when the voices had turned against two others [OOC: Sage Kangaroo and Mauve Crocodile.] He had kept his silence, unwilling to turn attention to something that did not matter, but as Tenth thought about the voting, it came to mind, and he thought he may as well say it. He was not especially willing at this point to condemn another, but he also did not feel particularly strongly about the discussions that had ensued thus far. One way or another, he needed information, and Patji had taught him the value of caution and watchful waiting. Patji had, in a way, taught him everything about the long hunt. Sometimes, you had to test the water, to decide if there were deepwalkers below. Shadows beneath. Father, Tenth wasn't sure, but it was the best he had to go on.

    [OOC: 9m bored and i dont wanna rp rn so here you go, after an ode to Prudence: Sendung mit der Maus #2 Bravely bold Sir Brockett Rode forth to Alethkar He was not afraid to die Oh brave Sir Brockett He was not at all afraid to cough and defenestrate *cough* *cough* *cough* *cough* Sir Brockett He was not in the least bit scared To brave the daily mob.

    This confusion was something Tenth of the Dusk had shared. On Sel, the other worldhopper [OOC: Turquoise Gorilla] had also claimed that the Shard Prudence was capable of approving in-thread PMs instantaneously. Tenth had questioned him on it. After all, was it not known that Prudence took at least a day to establish communications? But then a voice had spoken, from the sky, as thunder [OOC: @little wilson] and had confirmed that the worldhopper spoke truthfully. Tenth was still trying to make sense of things. He found the other worldhopper's mannerisms a little strange: after all, all knew [OOC: cf. ruleset] about that quirk of Prudence's powers. He suspected from what the thunderous voice had said that the worldhopper had conferred with that voice, though whether in private or in odious company, [OOC: PM or doc] Tenth did not know. He did not have strong reasons to think one way or another, only a lingering sense of unease. Nightmaws lurked, here.

    On a market on a very different world, Tenth of the Dusk strode out from the shadow of a teahouse. The Frozen Moon was, he had been told time and again, a perfectly respectable teahouse. As it turned out, it was neither: this Frozen Moon had, an old scholar had informed him, been built from the charred ruins of the previous iteration. Something about a ruthless Emperor and a rebellion. Tenth hadn't paid the Grand or his ramblings much mind. Neither had he much of an eye for tea, though those here seemed to swear by it. Some noise, but Tenth knew about noise. He knew about the trapper's patience. He knew about waiting for the silt to settle, so you could see if you had a creel full of fish or glintfangs. You didn't want glintfangs: they were bad to eat, but with pretty scales and easier to catch than the fish. He'd known trappers fall for it: one of Sori's many traps. They died slowly. Glintfang poisoning was never a good way to die. There were few good deaths, in the Pantheon. He holstered the crossbow he was carrying. At least one thing about the Empire: they made good crossbows here. Light, and some of the repeating ones he'd seen for sale could've punched through a Rosharan chull's carapace. He did not doubt his quarry would not be caught by such rude tricks, though. The Alethi man was cunning and he'd been told repeatedly that the Alethi man had a knack for survival. After all, had he not survived more battles than most lighteyes could claim to? Kaikoa was flying overhead, somewhere: for a moment, an image pushed into Tenth's head. Someone someplace else; he caught a glimpse of more people than Tenth had seen in all his life on First of the Sun, and then the contact was gone. But he thought he knew what Kaikoa was showing him. Who Kaikoa was showing him. He would have to keep his eye on that other as well. [OOC: Turquoise Gorilla.]

    A foreign world, again. Tenth of the Dusk wondered if he would ever get used to the feeling of a different sun on his skin. He had the strangest feeling it had all happened before, and now it was happening all over again. The light, the trees. Ein Fehler in der Matrix. He'd slept through most of it. It was a litany of watching, and waiting, but his quarry had gotten away. Kaikoa chirped on his shoulder and he fed her some nuts, absently. Or he was getting soft. Sometimes, Tenth wondered if he would survive a journey to even small Sori. But such thoughts were foolishness. He'd given up the life of a trapper for the trappings of the homeisles and he knew some of the others considered him a traitor. He had turned away from the Pantheon, from the homeisles, from the homeworld. And now he was here, where the people talked all the time, in their grand robes, and Tenth supposed it was right: that Third of the Sky was right, too; that he'd never had the heart of a trapper, and that you could take the trapper from the Pantheon but you couldn't take the Pantheon from the trapper. Here, the traps were of words rather than of vines, of men rather than of creatures. The spanreed brought word from the other worlds. Already there was tentative disagreement. Already there were rumours of Shards walking amongst them. Of hidden ones with differing intents. Tenth chewed on a nut himself. He did not like that thought. He was not here to get wound up in the quarrels of Shards or Silverlight or secret groups. He was here tracking his quarry. He had been promised a healthy sum of spheres for an Alethi man with the birds. He had been promised the man would be a difficult quarry: one of the most dangerous, most canny targets Tenth had ever hunted. And so Tenth had agreed. He did not trust Ghostbloods—a wise man did not trust another, on the Pantheon, and the Ghostbloods were as deepwalkers, shadows beneath the surface—but they were good for their word. Enough spheres he could afford an upgrade of his equipment. A hundredweight of nuts for Kaikoa. A quarry worthy of the hunt. He'd been turning in laughably clumsy targets for Scadrian boxings of late, and something in him itched. He had not become a bounty hunter to become soft. This much was true. He gave one last glance to the spanreed and shook his head. Vatorr Maj [OOC: Saffron Iguana]—something about that one... Tenth left, and went to the market.

    [OOC: What is this divine voice speaking profoundly beautiful truths? A Elbereth Gilthoniel! Truly a star shines on the hour of our meeting.] [MOAR OOC: I'm actually playing Tenth of the Dusk. Request you do not RP Kaikoa as that is the name of his Aviar and I don't really want to be trapped into having to RP this game as a chicken bounty hunter, as amusing as that might be. I know y'all are trolls, as are the Almighty GMs, but please please please spare me, have mercy on me, it's Christmas.]

    I am going to place my vote on Ivory Dragonfly for now, though I'm not sure it will help me at all. My biggest reason for this is that they haven't claimed Forsaken. Swan and Hyena have also not claimed, but I am the most suspicious of dragonfly.
  21. Azure Mouse
    I am really sorry everyone, this past weekend has been really crazy for me. I am going to go and see what's happened since I was gone, then come back and check in. I feel like I am probably going to die this cycle, because it seems like either Lews(and possible crew) or someone else is taking advantage of the roleblock.
  22. Azure Mouse
    Don't eat me!
  23. Azure Mouse
    I would like to see what happens on a tie, so I'm going to vote on Megenta Albatross for now.
  24. Azure Mouse
    I don't know if it will change each cycle, or if it's different for different players. It roleblocked me, which was fine that round cause I had used Saidar to protect myself from death, so nothing happened. Edit: I'm talking about the Lynch.
  25. Azure Mouse
    I am one of those listed. Also, I believe I'm the only person that knows what the Lynch does. Id be willing to share it so people don't roleblock me.
