In a delightful birthday party...

Mark raises a valid concern with a timely note - he doesn't really have a mouth and, delightful though the cake may be, he can't eat it because of this sad, inescapable fact that you can't easily correct in any manner. What is nitrogen, anyway? Or phosphorous and potassium?

"Oh, don't be silly, little buddy! You don't eat that with your mouth! You just sink your roots into it and wait for physics to do the rest. Now, eat up. After all, plants can't live without their minerals!"

Something feels wrong about this. Probably the fact Bernie seems genuinely happy about something that isn't schadenfreude.

Yeah, that's pretty disturbing.

(( Bernie doesn't despise you, he's just indifferent, a bit rude, and often misunderstood. The Artiste, on the other hand, is above hatred.))

In my experiences the cake is a lie

((The Artiste is just a power-mad demon fugitive. I really don't see what's wrong here. I DO however know that a substantial part of the air is made out of nitrogen and that potassium kinda explodes when mixed with water. Phosphoros isn't all that healty either, I think. But hey, you're a plant, so all that may be different.))


E: ((Wikipedia tells us that plants are naturally pretty rich in potassium and that it thus won't kill you. Nitrogen won't kill you either.))

[killerhellhound]

so they are giving me a cake thats perfect for my plant body and I'm running because I'm paranoid
change action politle refuse the cake writing "I'll have it later after I get one of my experiments that escaped back then run into the portal.

((Potassium is not really dangerous. In an episode the MythBusters tried to blow open a door with it and they just couldn't, they even used loads of the next alkali metal (rubidium) and the door remained locked. Or al least I think that it was what happened))

Rich in Potassium doesn't mean that it has pure Potassium in it. Only pure Potassium will explode. Stop the paranoia!

[Harry Baldman]

Inside the tower of the Artiste...

Mark, feeling something to be a bit wrong here, decides to write out a polite refusal to the cake.

I'll have it later after I get one of my experiments that escaped back.

The Artiste smiles widely and, moreover, sincerely.

"Oh, Mark, you never change. Don't dawdle too much, though. It took us a bit of time to make this cake, you understand."

"Yeah, I slaved over it for half a day. Come back soon, okay?"

"It is not a party without the guest of honor, after all."

Mark nods to the rest and quickly leaves through the portal, looking for Tom as he runs through the town.

Yet Tom is nowhere to be seen. What he can see, however, is a huge thunder lizard bearing down on the tower! Oh boy.


In a bloody square...

Darren, allowing primal instinct to take control, hides!

[Hiding roll: 5]

He leads the band over to a stone manor next to the square, finding it to be totally unlocked. When he gets in and the band shut the door behind themselves, they feel rather safe. After all, most of the people around are dead. It's only a matter of staying out of the way of the ones that aren't.

It's a conspiracy!

But yes. It probably won't kill you... then again, why take a chance?

[killerhellhound]

run back in and write "Godzilla" and shaking it in there faces   

[Harry Baldman]

Outside the tower of the Artiste...

Mark writes a single word on some paper and runs back inside the tower. He brandishes the note dramatically and waves it in the faces of the people around.

"Godzilla!"

"Oh? What's that? Sounds goofy."

They don't seem to associate this word with anything. Hm.

Spoiler: GM Note (click to show/hide)

Quick biology note: potassium, nitrogen and phosphorous are three of the primary macroelements needed by plants for successful growth and survival (nitrogen for the creation of proteins, phosphorous for chemical energy storage and nucleic acids, potassium is important for several other processes, including photosynthesis and nutrient storage). Secondary macroelements, needed in lesser concentrations, are calcium, magnesium and sulfur.

The more you know!

[killerhellhound]

I didnt know about the nutrients a plant needed but still good to know now
