HOW || Actionspam

What has already been a long, eventful night promises to end with a bang. (Maybe a literal one, if Archer has anything to say about it). The Knights' 'night off' at Burt's club was crashed by not only an actual goddess, but also included a visit from Nadia, extending an invitation on Keijen Blade's behalf to come to his club across the city that night.

They smelled an obvious trap, but their debate over how smart it may or may not be to walk into was rendered moot when an emotionally distraught Isabella, having admitted her feelings to a bewildered Rafael to no avail, ran off to the club alone.

Knowing that Blade has a particular interest in Violet, everyone agreed it's for the best she keeps her distance, and she returned to Des' apartment with Finnick and Luthir while the others headed to the address Nadia provided.

Gar, Kat, Mark, and Elena are remaining in the car as back-up, while Rafael, Buffy, Spike, Des, and Archer will be heading inside.

Vi told Gar that Nadia's at your apartment.

[Because that should be a bigger deal than Elena is making it. Oops.]

[nothingsodivine]

[The look on Des's face says in no uncertain terms that was not the person he was expecting to be in his apartment.

Wait.]

Why the hell would Nadia be at my apartment?

[postergirl]

What an impressive informational network you've developed.

Nadia was just here. [ eye. roll. ]

[notaroundme]

[...wisdom check 19...watch those gears roll.]

So...which one of them is fake...

[She does not like where this is going. And clearly that is the only explanation since she has...that kind of thing on the brain now.]

[bigbad]

Unless going Carrie during combat is something doppelgangers can do, I'd bet we had the real one here.

[nothingsodivine]

Which does not make me feel cozy right now.

[YEAH, HE'S HOOFING IT. And dragging Rafael with him.]

[romanticidal]

[ rafael looks up at buffy, spike, kat, gar and dumage, and nods solemnly. ] Hurry. We will meet you there as soon as we escape.

[isisagent]

That is, assuming either of them are real, and also that dickhole Edward Scissorhands wannabe isn't mind-fucking them.

[notaroundme]

[Yeah, if it's her doppelganger friend, she's probably going to cry.

But for now, she'll turn and start running back up the stairs, and not nearly as elegantly (dex 12)]

[rationalizes]

[ gar is just looking down sadly like

why doesn't anyone bring a rope in d20 modern

why

but she'll finally say, hesitantly: ] Do be careful. [ to those below, before turning to go up with the others. ]
