[Game 21] That Night

[arsgoetia]

After everyone has gotten fed and had a chance to learn the basic details of what things are like here, Kieran calls you all together (pretty much because Madison had been trying to work up the steam to do so, so Kieran stepped in instead).

It's dark outside, and a little chill—about 9 or 10PM.

"Okay, guys," Kieran says. "So, Maddy's got enough train tickets for all of us minus two. Maddy's staying behind because of prophecy reasons, and I'm going to stay with him so he's not left alone in this house and also because I'm probably a killswitch for a powerful incubus, aka my boyfriend, showing up if anything happens to me and, by extension, Maddy." He delivers this all in a deadpan. "Anything else, Maddy?"

Maddy looks a little alarmed to be put on the spot, shaking his head and flushing a little. "Er. Not for now. Oh . . . if anything goes. Weird? Please listen to Sariel—he's . . . in charge?" And he hands over an envelope to everyone's favourite psychopomp.

And call if anything happens! And remember to stay hydrated!

[onelastknight]

Fair enough. I can't think of any reason why a normal observer might question a group, anyway.

[boatsights]

It's okay . . . if you get separated, I'll be able to find you, still. It's what I'm good at.

[playfair]

Ummm, you should definitely keep your clothes on, and maybe let other people talk to strangers if you're worried.

[onelastknight]

Having a way to carry things would be useful regardless...

[monere]

Cool. What do you want me to put you as?

[defendless]

[haha]

Zeno got the idea from a non-magical person, so Zeno will be honest about it, yes.

[innerdemon]

Isn't that awfully heavy to carry around if you're not planning on playing real life Clue?

[boatsights]

[leans against him]

[tenebrat]

[ ALSO HOLDS ITS PHONE OUT FOR HER 'w' surprise i have a person shape ] I would like to exchange!

[monere]

I'm getting so many cutie's numbers today.

[playfair]

Do you have memory problems or something?

Re: [Preparation]

[beginningofwisdom]

Of course.

[runawaystory]

[she doesn't seem super happy with this but ok]

If you're sure... Alright.

[troublebrewing]

It's Robin. Sorry, I didn't get to introduce myself before.

[bowtiedbones]

Okay, if station security checks my bag, the skeletons are just skeletons.

[monere]

[lmao]

Cool. I'll just put you as Elli.

[liarliarliar]

They might get annoyed but even then.

[shrugs]

People get annoyed all the time.

[innerdemon]

Luka's listening, yeah. He usually does. He doesn't always pay attention, but he listens anyway.

[defendless]

A little bit.

[the human mind is not built to handle two thousand+ years of life]

[runawaystory]

Unless we need to run fast. In which case, not so useful.

[bowtiedbones]

Definitely! Can you imagine if someone got lost??

[tenebrat]

Most of us have normal clothing, at least, but I worry for the tall tall very tall man.

[onelastknight]

It's not terribly uncommon.

[defendless]

[laughs]

Zeno would too, in that kind of situation.
