I wasn't exactly gentle with the guards I took out. They're all alive -- I think -- but they're going to be hurting come morning. My eyes lift to the lockers -- still locked, apparently -- so we've got some time to spare. "I'm not keen to have 'e…
I'm not entirely sure the first guard (G4) even sees me coming. His head is turned towards the controls, probably trying to evaluate whether or not the other guard will get it closed in time. My hand slips around his neck as my leg catches him beh…
Rolling for some hurt. A lot of hurt. I hope. 1+Pit Fighter+Combat Tested+Brutal+Living Weapon+Fast+Hard+3 Pool = 10
(Rolled: 10d6. Rolls: 2, 2, 2, 6, 6, 5, 5, 2, 4, 5. Total: 39)
I give Jonas a nod, and my fingertips of my first two fingers rise briefly to touch my heart. It's a greeting, a way to say I recognize and respect him. My two fingers, initially pressed together, become my thumb and three more splayed out, then j…
"Later," I tell the girl. I don't even turn; I'm still striding forward, and I'm picking up momentum as I move to meet Vance partway and to put some distance between myself and my charges. My muscles are wound tight in preparation for the coming f…
I glance sharply towards Kale, then include Lady Blackbird in my gaze. The door opens loudly behind me, and I can hear Snargle ordering us out. "If you're done showing off, maybe you'll keep outta trouble and let me do my job." Just because I hap…
Naomi's a big girl -- plus, she probably thought things were getting kind of dull, so this should liven them up a bit! (But she'll still at least LOOK disapproving!)
Well, that cat's out of the bag. In fact, it's out of the room, down the street, and probably halfway back to Ilysium by now. And we had been doing so well...
Smugglers and criminals aren't exactly a noble breed, and I've no doubt that every sing…
It isn't as gruesome as it sounds. It wasn't even a real eye -- I honestly can't tell you what happened to Mary's original one, so don't ask -- and I didn't even have to pry it out of her head. The fall from the second-floor landing did that for m…
Naomi can go by Naomi, unless she's well-known, for some reason! I know she used to be a pit-fighter, but pit-fighters usually have really cool-sounding names...so her name alone probably isn't going to make people go, "Oh, hey, that's obviously La…
Minor setback? Sitting in the brig aboard an Imperial ship is a minor setback? I'd hate to see what a major setback would be... But, I suppose, if they have a plan...
Like the others, I rise. I'm pretty agile, so it looks pretty graceful, simpl…
I almost have to wonder the same thing as I sit here on the floor beside the Lady's cot: how did I end up imprisoned by Imperials again? This plan wasn't without risk, but this isn't the sort of trouble I had imagined. If my smoldering glares don'…
Hello, folks! I'm Andrea! I've played Lady Blackbird once before (a short one-shot) and a handful of play by post games before...which makes me an expert in neither. I know just enough to get into trouble!
I'm located in Minnesota in the USA. S…
"I do." I'm in no hurry to reclaim my hand, so I leave it in your's. The table is small enough for it to be comfortable, and, even though we're sitting in an airplane hanger, it feels cozy and quiet and appropriate. It will be a shame to have to …
You've outdone yourself. Everything from the setting to the wine to the food is perfect, and I can't help but smile in satisfaction as the delicate taste of the main dish settles in my mouth. The fettuccine features a rich sauce that is nicely-com…
Look at that -- two sky references right in a row! You probably do that a lot...but, it makes me grin and lift my own glass a little higher. "To the sky and beyond."
The wine is good, actually -- I love a good wine. I'm a girly drinker, and I do…
I stifle a giggle -- that's about the most serious I've ever seen anyone look while discussing peanuts!
If your goal was to impress me, I am suitably impressed. "How long did it take you to set all this up?" I certainly hadn't been expecting you …
"What other perks does first class come with?" I ask with a smile as I accept the seat. I glance over the wine bottle in approval, then take a sip once you've finished pouring. It's good -- crisp and light. "Not airplane food, I hope?"
Pinging o…
