The song worked! Our flashlight came back!

Greet the light enthusiastically!

I just realized that we got hints that it was some kind of beast and didn't need to turn or otherwise as we lack sight. :P

turn around to "see" what's behind you



The harsh scraping sound continues. Like sharp metal on stone.
It doesn't sound like your Flashlight.

Doesn't sound like a Flashlight at all.

Quote from: Sir Knight on February 17, 2017, 11:41:20 am
I believe this occasion calls for a "Gwaaaaah?"

Involuntarily, a choked sound of panic escapes your throat.
Fearing an unknown danger, your heart starts to hammer in your chest.

With no idea what to expect, you steady yourself and pivot to face the noise.



Your eyes meet the gaze of what appears to be another eye.
A larger, redder eye. A singular eye, glinting in the darkness.

There's no more time to hesitate. You've got to think fast.

Okay, focus. Your strumming attracted whatever this is, right?
Maybe it wants to hear more? Maybe music would calm it down?
Or, at least, it might buy you time to make a plan of attack.

Time to hope for a stroke of brilliance, you suppose.

Pretty sure any friendly enthusiasm you had just burned away with your friggin' retinas. Oww.

Besides, whatever this...  thing is? They're intently focused on your Flashlight.
They honestly don't seem to be paying you any attention, anymore.

Make a polite request first. It's a robot and it's curious. It must have some level of intelligence, right?

..It just took a picture of us. Pose unlike one of those French girls! Sorry, misinterpreted picture because it wasn't playing as a gif for me. Didn't realize it had our flashlight.

Work on a potential forum game for my return to Bay12. Figure out parts that puzzled me before. Find more things to figure out that I can't. Work on another game instead of solving them. Get distracted and stop working. Remember it a week or two later. Remember I'm still on hiatus. Illogically, Be too ashamed to return yet. Repeat ad nauseam.

Finally have a game completely ready. Wait a week before posting it out of laziness.

Thank you so much, Solifuge.  I needed to laugh.  You made me laugh.

Now, uh . . .

Engage diplomacy.  It may be using the flashlight as an Aldis Lamp.

(I don't want to propose the "Deception" skill unless strictly necessary, but it is a diplomacy option for this character as per the sheet.)

If it's curious, maybe we could show it something else to interest it.Try moving the cat plush around like it's alive or something, then if it shows interest, try to do a trade. Maybe?

The cat plush is a plot-critical item, obviously. We can't trade it away.
