in response to what the man said while standing up, said back to him before he revealed himself and we were moved:
"Mrwrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"
Buisness? I agreed to nothing. You have no claim, and I saw nobody else agree to one either. What kind of buisness?
((Aylia has been consistent about this kind of thing. She does not accept implied agreements and attempts to even imply that she accepted one that she did not makes her angry instantly. See when she was dealing with the Fey and one of them tried similar shit. Aylia takes agreements very seriously, and what she DOES agree to, she does everything in her power to fulfill. She has agreed to nothing and simply acquiesced to a request for information about herself.
If we go by Fey rules, technically he owes her a minor debt due to him requesting and accepting her gift of information. and she owes him nothing but the courtesy of guest to host. so...))
Next, Aylia herself never had any actual memories of her father - he left before she was born, left nothing behind about himself, and her mom refuses to talk about him. Everything she knows about him has been deductive, based on what she knows about herself. so... has there been any change to that status quo? has she forgotten what she has figured out about him?
annnnnnd finally, in reaction to dead people hitting her team members -
I grab the corpse of Terrance with my mouth and drag it away from Asiin.
Apparently this figure, this "Devil" does not operate under Fey rules. Aylia has lost all memory of her quest to know her father - her mother's reluctance ot talk about him, the fact that he was different from the elves, the knowledge that she was even interested in knowing who he was. All she knows is that she has a father. She doesn't even kow that he left her mother. For all she knows, they are happy together now.
You go over and grab the octopode zombie in your massive jaws and pull. he puts up a fight, wrapping tentacles around Asiin's arm and shell, but between you and Asiin, you get the zombie away from her. It does not seem happy about this at all, but it stops struggling. It still yells taunts and swears at Asiin, and glares daggers in her direction whenever it sees her.
Team Adorable - Dar'yajira, Metal Cat
Dar'yajira looks around in a panic, staying away from the enraged terrapode and tortoise. He then sees Noir, rushing towards the should-be-dead Jack, and his panic only escalates as he quickly manuevers behind the man.
STAY BEHIND JACK, and be very ready to attack and kill him if he harms Noir. Dar doesn't actually believe that whatever the thing was, it can break the laws of nature.
It ... seems like Jack. It acts like Jack. it smells like Jack. It sure hugs Noir tightly, but that doesn't seem to be harming her, exactly.
((So wait, Jack's back?))
If Jack is back for real, go and embrace Noir
You do this. She is practically speechless.
...well, shit. Is zombie Terrance NPC'd now?
Sadly, yes. On the bright side, he is freed from the inevitability of death.
Team Green
"Thanks for the gift, I'll visit soon!"
Equip my new amulet. Identify just how undead various freshly undead teammates are.
Sadly, that Jackfellow seems rather "not dead" than "undead." Yousniff indisdain. the eightlegged fellow though, now
there's a proper zombie. And look at that, it has a death grudge. Things are looking up now.
Cho Ja
Look for my metalpede buddy, and for a way to get onto the carts.
metalpede is still kinda tucked down along the wall where you left him. He seems reserved. As for getting onto the carts - well, you could probably jump if you time it exactly right. But if you miss ...
"..."
Whack the corpse with a stick. Hard.
"Fuck you, you killed yourself."
You beat on the clingy, angry sushi until Aylia peels it off you. You and the calamari continue to hurl insults and curses at each other until it is dragged out of sight.
