"Other fat guy said I had to make the place defensible, I did so. I'm clearly the ultimate person."

Rather pleased with himself, the DUNKER begins to head back to those guys.
Head back to fat guy and those other mage people.

"This place is now significantly more defended. I wouldn't reccommend going outside ... ever though, I'm not sure if the hookers would let you pass."

Larry grinned, flush with new power.  This was the stuff!  "I dunno, girl.  Maybe you're not ready for the power it has!  Check it!"


+1 mind! Teleport to the other side of Tracey to show off.

I shall swap Enchant Potato for River of Invisible Potatoes since I have been advised to diversity.

”Profligate? Screw you, man. I show you the path to the greatest power, and you call me a profligate? That was only low level gentleman’s literature, dude.”

Remain calm and look again at my folder! (focus: potatoes)

"Look, we are servants of the potato now. We should be friends.”

Address God:

”God, what is your will?”

No response. Maybe Charlie's not here yet.

"Depends. Who are you? There's no name on the doorbell."

"Ge-hey, wait a minute! I'm not supposed to tell anyone. Ziggy said so."

Larry grinned, flush with new power.  This was the stuff!  "I dunno, girl.  Maybe you're not ready for the power it has!  Check it!"


Teleport to the other side of Tracey to show off.

Oh, did I forget to say you got a new stat point? Because you did. It seems I forgot, yes.

[Affinity roll: 4+2]

You appear right next to Tracey, narrowly dodging the tendril as you reappear. It's an invigorating feeling, teleportation.

"Whoa!" she says with amazement, nearly falling off the walkway. "Cool! I want powers too, dang it!"

With that, she quickly grabs the tendril like one would a stick, then points it at herself. Her eyes roll back, her mouth falling open as the tendril crosses her body. This lasts for a couple moments, Tracey's face looking rather silly the entire time, and then the tendril retreats, the woman snapping out of what must be her fifth or sixth trance of the day. That is, if this whole experience isn't some kind of trance to begin with. She looks disapprovingly at the Source, shaking her head.

"Just my luck. Seems it was fresh out of teleportation!"

Neat!  That elusive seventh spell slot is now mine!

That sure was an unwieldy edit on my part back there. Probably should have just posted the partial update here, since I felt like adding a new post anyway.

"Oh come on. I don't have time for this. I swear to god, if that beaver gave me wrong directions I'm going to kick over his dam."

John grumbles and curses, but decides to wait just a wee bit longer.

Larry sniggered.  "Guess we can't all be cool like me."

"Oh. That's too bad. I guess I'll have to give that reward to someone else then. Maybe Ziggy would be interested?" Eta said as she turned around and started walking away.

As you impatiently appreciate the glory of surprisingly lifeless nature around you, you do notice something, a feeling, as if you're being watched carefully by many tiny eyes. Perhaps something is expected of you, as the stillness of this place becomes almost palpable.

Larry sniggered.  "Guess we can't all be cool like me."

Tracey frowns.

"Guess not," she says hopelessly and shrugs. "And I can't even test my crappy new power, since Kitty's not here. This is just the worst, isn't it?"

As if in response, the wick-headed guy reappears.

"I'm, uh, back and stuff. You get your, uh, business done?"

"What? Me and him?" Tracey says indignantly. "I hardly even know him!"

"Uh, but that shouldn't-" the guy starts, then looks over at you. "No! Wait! That's, uh, your cue. Say something, uh, smooth, you know? Then we can get going."

"Oh. That's too bad. I guess I'll have to give that reward to someone else then. Maybe Ziggy would be interested?" Eta said as she turned around and started walking away.

"Wait! What kinda reward?" the shade asks. "For what?"

This is the worst, thought John. Not only is nothing happening, but now I've got the feeling of being watched by voyeuristic smurfs.

"Look, I know you're watching me." He holds up the suitcase chained to his arm. "I've got a delivery for Charlie, and I'd be really glad if you'd just come out and get it. You don't even have to sign for it."

Yo, magical sugardaddy. Do you know what's going on here?

This does not appear to be what they want from you. Not surprising, considering you tried it before already.

~Angels are all about movement. Demons are all about hierarchy. Gremlins are all about destruction, and elemental gods are all about specialization. Gnomes, though, gnomes are all about secrecy, invisibility. And, naturally, all about ritual as well, though that applies to all supernatural creatures.~
