[Gamerlord]

Dig a hole and drop the two lovebirds into it.

[Xantalos]

((Has everyone forgotten about the magic tournament with mages running around killing each other? Is that even still going on? I swear, Luke's in a more confusing situation than they guy from 2001 A Space Oddessy.))

[killerhellhound]

I think the leather men are dealing with that while we screw around
help dig the hole and move the love birds

[miauw62]

((And thus begins the story of The Ghost and The Hippo, travellers trough time and space, seeking their final destination.))

[Harry Baldman]

In the streets of Emlocke...

Though the sight of Tom and Bernie standing there transfixed at each other is quite entertaining, Yorinnsud figures she should do something about the situation and resolve Bernie's hideout problem at the same time. She is joined by Mark, who feels a bit guilty about abandoning her earlier, in the completion of this endeavor. They start to dig a hole in the ground!

[Digging roll: 3]

Unfortunately, they are severely lacking in proper tools, which seriously hampers their ability to get through the cobblestones covering the streets. Mark's halberd, though good for most other purposes, does not really make a good prying tool, to tell the truth. And neither does Yorinnsud's sword.

((Has everyone forgotten about the magic tournament with mages running around killing each other? Is that even still going on? I swear, Luke's in a more confusing situation than they guy from 2001 A Space Oddessy.))

Well, the mages are definitely killing one another while you screw around. Plus there's not a lot of them left, and pretty much all of them except certain examples are on the defensive.

[Gamerlord]

Yorinnsud has an idea! Why not use some of the debris to build the two a proper love nest?

Build a small shanty with some debris. Then put the two inside. Then skedaddle before more orders can be issued.

[Harry Baldman]

In the streets of Emlocke...

Since digging a hole obviously is not going to work, Yorinnsud sets about constructing a nice love nest for her master. It is the considerate thing to do, after all.

[Love Nest construction roll: 5]

She quickly fetches a whole lot of debris and starts building, fashioning a comfortable little shanty around the two people in a short while. It is the perfect love shack, really, considering that it is made of blackened wood, has no windows or doors, no means of escape and rather good sound insulation. All those things provide maximum intimacy, Yorinnsud explains to Mark. Wouldn't want them to be disturbed by anyone or, for that matter, disturb anyone else with what they do in there. And the thing is remarkably sturdy if you consider what it's made of. Finally, it is cleverly disguised as a pile of burnt garbage, so nobody will even think of looking for them there! All in all, excellent work.

However, it is perhaps best to shuffle off before anyone breaks out or, gods forbid, issues more orders. Yorinnsud makes herself scarce as she runs down the street out of earshot, her orders technically complete and freedom momentarily obtained.

[Gamerlord]

((Holy shit, something I did worked!))

[Onyxjew944]

"Worth it."

Escape before Bernie Josh punishes me for my impudence. Leave a wink before I go.

[Gamerlord]

Take Mark with me to find more donors!

[Harry Baldman]

In the streets of Emlocke...

Tom figures it would be best to make a timely exit now. He tries to escape his love-tomb before Josh comes to his senses!

[Escape roll: 2]

Oh dear, these walls are quite sturdy, from the looks of it. That abomination lady obviously didn't want anybody to leave anytime soon. The sound construction of the love-tomb leaves little room for escape, sadly.

[Bernie will roll: 4]

Also, Josh seems to be slowly snapping out of his stupor.

"Holy mother of Almiria, that was the most horrible... wait, where am I? Why is it dark? And where is that... ugh... that thing?"

Well now. Tom gets the feeling that his motivations are going to be a barrel of laughs to explain.

Outside the love-tomb, meanwhile, the great architect Yorinnsud and her trusty comrade-in-arms-and-medicine Mark go forth in search of eminently murderable people!

[Search roll: 2]

Nobody in sight, unfortunately. Even the leather men seem to have gone somewhere while she was distracted.

[Onyxjew944]

'Hmmm... to troll, or not to troll... do I even need to ask?'

Continue trying to dig out, meanwhile...

"You were amazing; almost makes me reconsider biophilia." ((Continue as needed, but I'm more concerned with escaping alive rather than mindraping him. Though doing both is a definitely bonus.))

[killerhellhound]

I wonder If I could make some additions to you Onyx to make people go insane from seeing you
continue with Gamerlord on a merry adventure

[Onyxjew944]

I wonder If I could make some additions to you Onyx to make people go insane from seeing you

Tempting, very tempting.

Call of Cthulhu, Fallout ghouls, and Dark Eldar, with our powers combined, I am... pause for dramatic effect... Mindrape! I wonder what my end-of-chapter perk would be...

[Harry Baldman]

In a love-tomb of some kind...

Not having expected such resistance from a hastily-constructed love-tomb, Tom tries to bluff his way out of retribution!

[Bluff roll: 2]

"You were amazing, almost makes me reconsider biophilia... oh, the things we did..."

"I was paralyzed with horror, asshole, not unconscious."

"Oh."

[Bernie perception roll: ?]

"Thanks for telling me where you are, though!"

[Bernie magic roll: 1]

"Well, I am pretty close by, actually. Close enough to feel your breath. Close enough to know your warmth. Close enough to-"

"WILL YOU SHUT THE F-AAAUGH!"

It sounds like Josh is screaming like a banshee and writhing on the ground. How awful for him. Well, no time like the present to split!

[Tom intelligence roll: ?]

However, it does not seem like punching the walls is likely to work. Considering the construction of this thing, digging is unlikely to help, either.

[Bernie endurance roll: 5]

And Josh seems to have recovered from soul-tearing awfully quickly, judging by the lack of screaming and the presence of rather enraged-sounding breathing. Guess he's had many accidents like that already.


In the streets of Emlocke...

Mark and Yorinnsud keep on truckin' through the streets, searching for somebody to brutally kill and recycle.

[Search roll: 3]

Once again, only a few leather men can be seen on the streets. Stupid leather men, scaring away all the easy-to-kill mages.
