  1. A squirrels finds the sandwich.
  2. I have a question.

    Have we, as a society, collectively forgotten how to spell the word "yeah"?

    Because everywhere I look people are spelling it "ya".

    And it torments me endlessly.

    "Ya" is pronounced "yah". Like, what you yell when you swing a sword. It sounds wrong in my head.

    ...I don't know what this is about.

    It's probably not important.

    ...

    Uh...

    Yeah.

  3. "Okay then", Tinker said. He didn't push it.
  4. Tinker had been listening to the conversation silently. It's clear people probably aren't going to listen to me, so I guess I'll just follow the rest of them, unless they do something stupid. He noticed Marewill's sudden shift in mood. He leaned towards her as the others continued to talk. "You okay?" he asked softly.
  5. "You're tapping...what?"
  6. "'Spore boy'?" Tinker asked dryly, raising an eyebrow. "Also why do you get to decide where to go?"
  7. Tinker just shook his head. A smile briefly tried to tug at his face. He couldn't tell if he supressed it fast enough or not. "We're glad for your help."
  8. Tinker blinked. "I've called you Mare before, haven't I?" "I'm just surprised you can talk....if you can help us though, I'll gladly accept you." "Us, standing here, not murdering each other, is defying them. That's what I mean. We don't have to kill each other." Tinker sighed again.
  9. I almost missed your birthday!

    Happy birthday!

  10. Tinker sighed. "Drop it, Mare. If they won't listen just ignore them." He turned to the group. "Okay, we have a tentative alliance...but the gamemakers aren't going to like it. And I also don't like the idea of any one of you deciding that their rules are better and it might be nice to be the last one standing. Bickering aside, we need a plan. Are we actively defying them?" @J. Magi @Scars of Hathsin @Spark of Hope @RoyalBeeMage @WhyEverNot_8
  11. "I'm Flemr. I go by Tinker. And...the plan is to survive, I suppose. And not kill unless in absolute necessity for defense."
  12. Tinker stood to the side and blinked. Didn't...they... literally just meet? The sudden display of support baffled him. As he stood there, though, he couldn't help the smile that crept onto his face. Even after all this... He walked over and knelt on one knee, not participating in the hug, but staying near it. @Scars of Hathsin @Spark of Hope
  13. Guys...

    Who is Will?

    And why are we firing at him?

  14. Tinker started from personal thought. "What?" He asked.
  15. "Uh...no. I didn't realize you were taking apprentices now..." Bookwyrm hesitated. "I came to tell you that your master has been killed."
  16. Hey you!

    Happy Birthday!

    (By the way, you share a birthday with my brother...)

      Thank you! That’s awesome!

  17. "Calm down," Tinker said. "If there's anything I've learned it's that you can't trust what that worm says. He's manipulating you. He's had his eye on me for far longer than you, and he never offered me anything of the sort. Despite clearly knowing that's the only reason I'm here. "Open your eyes. Blindly killing isn't going to save your family. Emeric isn't going to save your family. Just...calm down, and let's think this through."
  18. I'm quite happy with my AP scores.

      Hehe. Y'all will get there eventually. But I also kinda just didn’t do AP. Or dual credit. Went into college with zero credits. Cannot recommend. 

  19. "Wait," Tinker said. "You were thrown in here? I knew it. The whole willingness thing was a lie, if they're coercing 'volunteers'..." @Spark of Hope
  20. Happy Birthday! Hope things are going good.

  21. Tinker stared for a moment. What happened to your supposed "goodwill", Emeric? You take the first person who meets us and turn him against us. Don't think I didn't notice you talking to him. I know what that looks like now. "So much for your 'alliance', Roy. Whatever happened to finding a way out together?" @Spark of Hope @RoyalBeeMage
  22. Tinker turned to Roy. "You coming?" @RoyalBeeMage
  23. Tinker nodded. "Anywhere's better than here." He started leading them into the distance of the jagged landscape.
