Huh. "Really?" I take the arrows back, think on it. She meant to miss me? "Maybe I better give 'em back." I'll wrap the heads back in the scrap. Stash 'em careful.
I tear into the eggs and greens. Robbie does a good egg. Salt and pepper b…

I most certainly can help Frog evaluate their security! I can find a nearby rooftop, make my way along an unused fire escape to peer down upon the Red Lamp. I'll make notes about what I see- then scamper down, silently, quickly, dropping to…

I nod enthusiastically. "Yes, Ring! It will be good to work at the bench on this. We can indeed brew some sort of draught to make them susceptible to our suggestion."
I crack my knuckles and rub my hands together. "And I can get in and dos…

Never turn down a free meal. "Hells yes, I'll take eggs and greens." Robbie's a good hand in the kitchen. He can probably hear my stomach go.
"Skulls, of course." Grinning. That only happened a few times. Grim work, though. "Just joshing.…

Might get real lucky if that's all he needs. Found those last ones localish. Sure worth looking before trying the Ruins proper. Robbie's talking to Roark, so I look at the walls. Need to mention about Sun's traps. And leave them here. I go…
Chris, I think none of us fully grok how it ties in. But I think yes, we are inserting in-narrative off-camera stuff.
The blank sections just haven't been written yet, to judge from previous releases.

I scratch my stubble. Really looking forward to that water heater. "Um. How soon?" I, like, JUST got back and haven't even taken a shit yet. Or a shower. "Where's the water heater stashed?"
[OOC: Jeff, my playbook says "obtaining a partic…

I've got no good answer for Cinna's flattery, except a sweet smile like a promise. Again, no blushes here! "I'll keep ears and eyes open, Cinna. I doubt the lady for you would be findable by a mere dubber like me alone!"
[Thirds]
Not bad. Rolled in pretty nice. Faster than shank's mare. Still a good chunk of daylight, too. They can always find another truck with that haul. Maybe Rue could find out where they picked it up from. I didn't do too good. Next time just a…

I pretend to be demure, but I can't hold it. "An acquisition," I say, placing the rifle down. "For the Guild armory." I should think it's a fair wedge better than a board with a nail.
[Vauri]
Cinnamon Socks should sing more frequently. I offer him a warm smile from a pretty girl to help his self-worth. "Could be better, could be worse," thinking of the rifle, the invitation, the hats, my sister, and the dead Sash. "How fares you…

I'll ride shotgun this time. Basically playing navigator. Window down, you know it. Hand in the breeze like a kid, thinking.
Nash Park's got open space, sort of. Trees slowly taking over baseball fields. But still room to drive in, hide s…

Sun's pretty. And good. People imagine stuff all the time. So?
I know, Mattie. Been thinking about this for a piece. I nod. "Bout two miles upda road to Monroe, Nash Park. There's fishing maybe in Dundee." Plenty places the water's no goo…
[Thirds]
Yup. Glad as hell I didn't go chase. I put my foot in the wrong roof-spot, might lose it. No doubt she knows the safe spots. Another time. I'll update my maps on the drive back. I don't want to touch the claymores. Liable to go boom if you…
[Thirds]
Not thinking. Got momentum and about to leap. To follow. But STOP, skidding like brakes. Watch 'em go. I got a nick, sure it stings, had worse. I got two arrows. Hey, free barter. They're on the run. They any good at roof runnin'? They lea…
[Vauri]
I make haste. A little regretfully. Fire is not a thing to trifle with. I think of Miss Harper.
What, this? It's a fetching little number in dark red velvet, nearly black. Almost like a man's bowler, but smaller and meant to be worn askew,…

I want this guy. I don't want him bad enough to get proper shot. Gotta stay mobile. Can't be laid up. First kick is no good? The second kick and I bounce off the rusted gate and spin-turn against the building, to cover. Looking up a little…
[Thirds]
I bounce a couple times, like before you'd go into a water dive. One giant deep breath. Then I leap down and sprint for the alley like zoom. Arms and legs pumping. Quicksilver, a little zig and a lotta zag. Go, baby.
[Thirds]
"Brakes!" Shouted to Mattie, there's maybe caltrops or worse ahead. Not enough bubblegum to replace the tires. I point in the direction of the sniper to Mimi, "Hopefully just arrows. The truck's cover enough." I'll scamper along back on th…
[Thirds]
Don't care about a second scav run right now- finish the first! A quick glance at the arrow — homemade or machined or...? — then I flip over, get my feet on the running board, passenger side by Mimi. I'm alongside the cab for better cover.…
[Vauri]
I can aid with some backup planning; surely there are some exotic substances in these hats that have alchemical significance. Mercury certainly, perhaps some ghost dust...

I like the wind in my hair. Feels good to be moving again. I bop along, humming my own tune. From here, I can see the horizon. Or ambush. Is anything following us? Pretty sunset.
I lean over and duck my head in the passenger window. Latch…
