  • Vignette & Gates She looks upset and doesn't quite snap at you, Gates, but close. "What would you know about rais..." She looks at Gate's face, at his age... "I suppose you have children of your own?" Gates: Kites wants to make Vignette feel …
  • Vignette & Gates Kites spares a polite nod to Gates, like she understands that Vignette is afraid to come alone. "You know," begins Kites, a touch of hurt in her voice. "WotCee's been hanging around those rafter kids at SafeCo. You know 'em r…
  • Gates, paused to give you a chance to help if you like, let me know if we should move on.
  • THE ARROWS (Dog's Gang)
  • Big list for NPC's and Notes about them, pt. 2 Rain says he's from the forest, and he's had a run-in with Gates and his followers. Fab mechanic at Pike's. He isn't being paid enough by the raiders who ask for him to work on their vehicles. He …
  • Big list for NPC's and Notes about them, pt 1 Admiral - Admiral is the hardholder of Safeco. He's partnered / the boss of Valentine, according to who you ask. He fixed the roof, made it secure. He's the reason there even is a hold here. Balance…
  • Vignette, sounds like you might be reading a person, but only if it's important to you, maybe you're just looking, for now.
  • Gates You find an out of the way place near the door. I have a feeling you're pretty good at being out of the way when it suits you. --- Vignette sits with her back to the curtained door to the kitchen. A few moments later a hand pulls the curta…
  • Gates All right, let's get this out in the open. The lord. Does the lord answer you? Do you see something, hear something? Do you hear answers in words or is it just a feeling you get? Wondering what happens when you open your brain, do you just sta…
  • Gates That's odd. How Vignette enters the place so deliberately, how she knows so well what's what and where's where. Like it's her place, almost. But it's clearly not... something feels still, uncomfortable in the air in here. There's a smell of co…
  • Gates You glance back towards the flock at the stall. Jones minding the counter while the others gather in a rough group out front. Looks like Fortyfour is making nice in his own way. Rei holds his heavy shotgun, with a bandolier of shells hanging, …
  • Question, for one or both: So how long ago was this? Olympia still out there missing? Or we talking ancient history now?
  • Vignette, Answer as you wish, then please head here, Crossing Paths.
  • Gates, Please head here, Crossing Paths.
  • Just a note that you've been mentioned in Gates' thread "Pike's Market" in case your attention is needed there.
  • Gates You make plans, give instructions to the flock. The flock has grown enough that you're not needed always. That's good. Gives you time for what needs doing. Those things you can't yet, or won't ever trust to the others. Or just maybe some time …
  • Vignette Interesting. So the voices are just kind of there nagging at your mind all the time. Or much of it. White noise, lots of thought. Makes sense. You come often enough that the guards don't stare too long. Arriving alone, unarmored, unarmed. …
  • Gates You finish your drink and walk back over to the stall. You pass Bobblehead who was quietly keeping an eye on the table from a distance. He looks at you for a sign that you're all right then shadows you back as you walk. Fortyfour walks like a…
  • Vignette The rest of the way to Pikes is easy. No more highwaymen, no more washouts. Your secret ways remain secret and your paths remain true. You see Pike's in the distance, the long, low building with it's corrugated metal plates, concrete barri…
  • Gates "You're older then you look," he finally says, taking both glasses again and refilling them as the barkeep watches silently, almost afraid to move. "You ain't afraid of me... never was, huh?" He scoffs, shakes his head slightly with a little …
  • Vignette Are they worth saving? Is anyone? You fall into quiet waters, comforting darkness surrounds you, little glimmers of light like diamonds dance on the surface above. Beautiful… peaceful. And alone. You feel the echo of the many minds you’v…
  • Gates Hey Gates, you can tell you've got in this guys head, on his good side. I have to admit, he's not exactly the kind of guy I picture belonging to a family such as yours, but you've got his attention. And got his ear. What do you want him to do?
  • Gates Fortyfour waits for you to drink, and drinks at the same moment, locked eyes the whole time. You can tell your words are getting to him, his facade of bravado fades a bit, his false toothy grin fades and he's really listening to you. Probably …
  • Vignette The guys go through the pockets of the dead, even their once-leader. No ceremony, no respect, just grim opportunity. They're not celebrating the death, not happy about what happned. But it's just what they need to do. The one guy keeps his …
  • Gates Fortyfour walks over, roughly pulls out a chair for himself with a foot and sits heavily. He sets the glasses down, opens the bottle and pours two glasses with one motion. Then he picks one up and holds it in front of his face, pausing for yo…
  • Vignette Hammer rushes out during the confusion, smashes the disoriented and bleeding-from-the-face highwayman in the skull, once… twice. he goes down. Hammer’s younger “friend” has been tied, hands behind his back and kneeling… hostage, he tries to…
  • Gates "We'll keep an eye out for it," says Jones softly, not even a hint on his face that it's a code. Rei gingerly holds her injured arm with the other hand as you walk away, Fortyfour's hand still firmly holding the back of your jacket as you go b…
  • Gates The guy watches you, looks skeptical as you show your scars, but when you smash the cross his face turns to a broad grin. He laughs a deep laugh, mouth wide with plenty of teeth. "You're all right, my friend! The name's Fortyfour," he sud…
  • Gates A moment passes, he holds the carving in one hand, sets it loudly back on the stall without letting go. he grasps it tight in his hand, turning his head slowly from you back to Jones and Bobblehead standing behind the counter. The corner of hi…
  • Vignette The man in the dark with you (We'll call him "Hammer" until you learn different) has been holding still, just enough tension in his arm to hold the bloody hammer just off the floor. He startles at the sudden screaming from outside. "Yeaaar…
