WHO || Anastacia O'Keefe, Bambi Dalton, Frankie Matera, Helen Magnus, Alaric Saltzman, Alice Lincoln, Edain, Thoster Chatwyn, Hook, Adi Laskaris, Max Rast, Brantley River
WHAT || A team of Knights is tasked with providing transport off the Island for local Shadowkind
WHERE || Andres Isle
WHEN || September 19th, 2014
HOW || Actionspam

[ The two groups responsible for evacuation of Shadowkind travel to the island via stealth boat, which puts their arrival a little behind everyone else's.  They run aground not far from both the woods, and the harbor.   Edain grins out at the sleepy island, dressed in full armor, hand on the hilt of his sword.  Anastacia frowns as she watches the woods, however, clearly more on edge about what they have to do. ]

From here, everything looks so peaceful...

[pathology]

[astrid is here sliding in silently back to where she was sitting before, watching like a creeper as solace takes his next phone call.]

[sirsolace]

[ when he hangs up, he directs his attention to astrid anyway ] We've a member unconscious on the demolitions team who requires treatment - Sir Trevethor. Astrid, would you tend to him and any others on the team who were wounded?

[pathology]

[she perks up like me??? HE REALLY CALLED ME??? FOR REAL???? and jump to her feet READY FOR ACTION ZOOM] Sure!!

[godblessyou]

[Taradiddle's gonna take that snack bar and eat it moodily because she's pretty sure Solace picked Astrid JUST because he's annoyed at Taradiddle. On the other hand, this means Astrid's going away, and Taradiddle's okay with that.]

[sirsolace]

[ shortly thereafter, solace takes another call, this time nodding to abigail. ] We've one down in a shack off the docks, needs to be stabilized. You'll have to hurry.

[lurings]

[ abigail scoops up her rifle, and hurries off without a word as fast as her little legs will carry her. ]

[sirsolace]

[ SUP TDIDDLE. your awkward hangouts with solace are interrupted by this pleasant message. hooraaaay. ] ... It's likely they'll have need of us both, soon. Be ever ready.

[godblessyou]

[Yeah, Tdiddle's definitely been sulking but THIS WAS NOT EXACTLY WHAT SHE WAS HOPING FOR SHE WANTED LOTS OF NICE MODERATELY INJURED PEOPLE THIS IS MORE THAN SHE WAS EXPECTING. She forces a smile.]

Great! I can totally handle this!

[Bluff 18.....]

[sirsolace]

I've no doubt you can. That's why you're still here, standing with me, in case of emergencies.

[godblessyou]

[She glances over at him and squints suspiciously.]

Are you just saying that to make me feel better about sending everyone else out first?

[sirsolace]

Don't tell me you require reassurance.

[godblessyou]

No! [Bluff 13.] I know I’m great. I just think you’re mad at me for fighting with Astrid and now you’re punishing me for it.

[sirsolace]

Keeping you in reserves for those who require quicker healing is hardly a punishment. I should think it would speak very highly of your skill.

[godblessyou]

...oh.

[She squints at him trying to figure out if he's just saying that to appease him but her sense motive is a 7 so I guess it works....]

I guess that's good, then.

[lurings]

[ BAM ABIGAIL BOUNDS BACK ON TO THE BOAT. heeeeeey youuuuuu guuuuuuuuys. ]

There is a shack full of body parts.

[sirsolace]

A what?

[lurings]

A shack. Full of body parts. At the end of the dock. Where that guy was injured.

Leftovers.

[ she still looks a little green and ill at the concept. ]

They sent me back. But in case they all die, I thought you should know.

[godblessyou]

Are we talking food leftovers or creepy experiment leftovers or a mix? Are we going to see the... rest of the leftovers come to attack us?

[lurings]

Probably both, creepy experiment leftovers turning into food leftovers. I don't think its a danger -- the other team was attacked by crabs. Scavenging, I'd bet.

[sirsolace]

It seems this island holds more secrets than we'd feared.

[theminotaur]

Or cannibals.

[ sur...prise?????????? there is no possible way any sentence could ever be delivered with more blandness than how abigail just said that.

cannibals should not be that common.

where is fred to use as her human shield. ]

[sirsolace]

[ this fun conversation interrupted by a text from wynn... that makes solace look remarkably grim. ] Wynn has requested my assistance. I dread to think what may have prompted a personal request.

That means you'll both need to hold position here, and field calls. Sir Timbers should be back soon. Between those of you who remain, come to swift agreement, and send out whoever is most fit for the task. I am certain you can see past your differences to reach an accord in this dangerous time.

[lurings]

[ no.

running down to the other side of the docks is one thing. solace was still within reach, if she screamed loud enough he probably could have heard her.

solace leaving? leaving her alone on an island that is renown in their circle as a hotbed of torture and death is an entirely different thing. if she hadn't been with solace she probably would have backed out at the last second and stayed in england.

and now he is leaving her alone with another squire?

ha.

she pales, eyes widening, but says nothing. her expression is pretty clear -- let everyone else die, stay here please. ]

[ex_noble101]

[Y'all are going to be getting a call shortly ring ring bitches.]

[lurings]

[ SIGH SHE IS RINGING. she packs her emotional trauma away and picks up. ]

How bad is it?

[ yeah, she ain't wasting any time, tone sharp and brusque. does he need a cleric or a medic, basically. ]
