"So help me, if I find out that whats-his-name has also been knocked unconscious by skeletons, I might just leave the whole group behind and try to complete this mission by myself…", Raynen grumbled, wielding the sword he'd scavenged.
Well, while I'm being fancy anyway…
Rocket kick into the skeleton, decapitate it and rebound off of the corpse in one smooth motion.
((Yes, it's overkill. Considering how nice my rolls have been lately, I feel like trying it regardless. Now watch me crash into the wall or something.))

Raynen attempts a flying, rocket-powered kick at the skeleton against the wall. it
almost hits, meaning it doesn't. Raynen now has an interesting problem, due to his foot being on the other side of the wall from the rest of him, and it doesn't seem to want to come back. luckilly the skeleton remains completely incompetent with that dagger, attempting to stab Raynen with it, and instead menacing the wall.
Merik smiled, twisting his scars hideously. It had been a long time since he'd used a bow, it wasn't the weapon of a duelist, but he was warming to it once again. He had fond memories of bows in his distant youth. Still, he'd need more arrows for it to be any use at all.
Run across the top of the gate, quiet but fast. Stay low, stay silent, and grab the felled skeleton's arrows.

Tis done, made hardly a noise and you've got yourself a quiver with another 14 bodkin arrows.
Dream sweet dreams of booze and whatever that fox thing did. That was REALLY NICE.
((and then Joe becomes addicted to being healed. OOPS.))

You're having a great night out, the booze is flowing, the company is friendly, and it's all going well. but then you slip and strike your head against the wall, hard. you see Akari, he face written over with worry, come over to you and gently touch your head, and you feel the same wonderful feeling inside. your headache is completely gone, and you start to stand up, but she holds you down and continues anyway. You feel yourself swelling up under this marvelous glow, and it just keeps going. after a few seconds you look down and you realize the swelling you're feeling is very, very literal. your entire body is swollen stiff, you can see cancerous grows sprouting up all over your flesh. you try to speak, to tell Akari to stop, but your tongue is trapped, swollen and misshapen like the rest of you, and you can't make anything intelligible come out.
"Shhhhh, it's all ok." The other patrons are just standing around, pointing and laughing, as you become this grotesque, misshapen mass of flesh. It's hard to breathe, you can even feel your heart working desperately to try to pump blood through all this additional bodymass. Sounds suddenly become muffled, and eventually fade away, as your ears close up and block all sound. your field of vision is dwindling, as your face becomes more and more swollen with the rest of you, until eventually, just before the last point of light fades away, and you are reduced to nothing but an obscene ball of flesh, unable to move or see or hear or even breathe, you wake up, screaming, to the sight of Pantagruel's surprised face.
"Hm. Not good, I would say."
Drag Joe back to the rest. Hopefully they haven't been eaten by monsters yet.

Turning around, you drag Joe back the way you came, yet after dragging him for a short while, about when you should have arrived back where you came from, you see the same two dark forms in the road ahead. the one that was moving earlier has moved closer to the still form, and is reaching out to it. Before you can decide what to do about this, Joe wakes up in your arms, screaming.
No post but I see no reason to wait for a "wake up" post
Akari Tou: 4-2+1
Nope, you're still out of it.
"I've had better days for sure. I should've listened to that priest, become a clerk for the government. It's also theft, just in broad daylight and institutionalized." The words come out softly, between shallow beaths.
STay down for now, if i'm close to Akari, see if I can prod/shake her awake. Prodding is to be done with fingers only.
glancing about, you see Akari only a short distance away, so you wiggle your way slowly towards her and poke her a couple times to no effect. a moment or two afterwards, you suddenly hear a scream from the road back the direction you came from.
