"A Vial of Blood and A Bleeding Heart" | Nichole, Squire, Dr. Beakerson, Guiscard, Kashi
Adventurer's Outpost, Evening of Second Day after Game 1
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: After eating at the party in the tavern, grabs her journal and begins to write. The Journal and Writings of Nichole of Maire Gliase: Nichole, shakily takes out her leather journal and pen. She sits for a few moments, hands trembling, then she begins to write... Yesterday, many things happened... to many to count as of right now... but… Nichole pauses, draws a line through what she just wrote. Yesterday... I did the unthinkable. I killed a person. More, than one person. Everything is so confusing and undecipherable right now. What have I done? I nearly got all my friends killed, but I didn't know... I didn't know. I didn't know that it would end the way it did. I saw them being cut down... all my friends, they Wouldn't. Stop. Fighting. And I had brought them there. /My/ mission is to help people, heal, keep people alive... and I was watching them die. ...So before I knew what I was thinking, I did the unthinkable, I killed. I killed to save... ...I was trying to do the right thing... but......... I'm a healer. So, why did I kill... Tears stain the page, as Nichole silently weeps from the turmoil inside . After writing everything down, her tears flowing unchecked she goes and finds a secluded alley and hides in the shadows. Not wanting others to see her crying. What if Sukoshi is right... what if I should also leave?
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Hears a CRACK from above.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Someone who has been keeping his eye close to her listens nearby.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Looks up quickly.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Sees Squire in tree ducking low, obviously trying to hide from sight of Nichole.
INDENT VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Bows her head to her knees trying to gain her composure. Bites her lower lip, then looks up, a smile playing on her lips. “Your contribution of food to the party was delicious, Squire.” :) Nichole: Thinking: I refuse to break down, now. I can't
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire awkwardly tries to balance herself as she signs: I didn't mean to snoop. Loses balance. Grabs a branch before she falls.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Hops to her feet and dashes under Squire. “Wait! Watch out!!” Catches hold of Squire. “Here, lower yourself down, I gotcha!”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Starts to sign: HELP, then falls.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 And lands on top of Dr. Beakerson! "Ooff!"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Attempts to catch her, but ends up getting squished by her, and slipping by the surprising entrance of Dr. Beakerson.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Scrambles up and regains herself, adjusting her hood.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "What in the blue blazes?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Staring up from the ground Dr. Beakerson! “What are you doing here??”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Beakerson shoves Squire off. "Good gravy, what happened?"
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire pulls out bent and ragged flower [That she wanted and retrieved from the tree]. Tries to hold it up. It falls. Squire: :(
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "My gosh, you about killed me for a flower?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Looks at the flower, then Dr. Beakerson, then starts to giggle. "Squire, you may need to leave climbing up trees to someone else."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Kicks at a rock. :(
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Laughing ‘til tears start to come to her eyes. “I'm s-sorry, Squire. I d-didn't mean to make you feel bad.”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Beakerson stands up and brushes himself off. "Oh my gosh, look how dirty I am now."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Holds up flower to Beakerson. All the petals fall off.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "That's a sad sight."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Shrugs and tosses it away. Signs: Are you alright?
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Gopher appears from ground, eating flower.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "What are you guys doing here anyway?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Finally stands and begins brushing herself off. Pauses for a second, seeming to notice something then continues brushing off dirt. “I was just trying to help Squire get out of the tree.”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Signs: And I wasn't snooping.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Who says anything about snooping?"
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Signs: No one.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Glances towards Squire then looks away. Hoping she hadn't heard her crying. “Did you enjoy the party Dr. Beakerson?”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Sees Nichole's glance and looks awkward.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "I did thank you. Except for the part when Sasquatch showed up."
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 “Sasquatch??”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Cocks head. Signs: What’s a Sass squash?
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Ya you know, the fenwomple."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Nods knowingly.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Tries not to shudder from the fright the fenwomple had given her. “Dr... I was wondering, since you're a scientist of sorts would you happen to be able to analyze a specimen to see if it has a certain chemical?”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 “I'm actually a medical doctor. And a gemologist.”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 “So... is that a no?”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Well is the specimen a rock?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 “No. Blood.”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Well then by all means. Let me look at it."
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: “I'll have to retrieve it. I'll be right back.” Runs back to Squire's tent where she left her satchel when Squire was treating her.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Who's is it?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole's already gone.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire shrugs and finds another flower. Sits herself down and begins nonchalantly pulling off the petals.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "What, you got a lover or something?"
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Shakes her head and shakes the rest off. Signs: Do you?
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Someone watches and listens, unnoticed by the group.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Pfft. Heck no."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Signs: My knight says you could use one.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Well who's asking him?"
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Shrugs and rolls the stem around in her hand, looking out for Nichole.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "That's what I thought."
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Goes to tent and finds her satchel, takes a deep breath... then grabs her knife and reopens the wound from the peddler. A small whimper escapes her, but she bites back the pain and drains some blood into an empty medicine vial. Grabs one of her stones and starts to shape it with her fingers, a clear liquid coming from the stones and dripping into her wound. Ah, okay. Rebandages the wound and wipes off the evidence then hurries back outside and around the corner to where she left everyone. “I found it!”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "About time."
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Hands the vial over.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Who's blood is it?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: “That's confidential Dr.”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire cocks her head.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Pulls out a small eye piece from his pocket. "You know you shouldn't keep that kind of information from a doctor." Examines the sample.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: “Patient confidentiality you know.”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "So you stole this from another patient or another doctor?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Shocked and indignant! "WHAT! I wouldn't steal it!!"
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Well last I checked I'm the only doctor here in Middlemarch. So that technically makes me your doctor does it not?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 "Ummm, no. I'm a Healer of Maire Glaise I get all my care there."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire signs: I also bandage my own wounds. I’m a surgeon.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Looks over at Squire. Continues examining the sample
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: “Glances up at the night sky. I'll be back. I need to run an errand. How about I meet you by the campfire in 30 minutes?” Smiles.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Hold up."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Cocks head. Signs: Am I invited?
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Pauses as she starts to walk away.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "There's definitely some foreign substance in this blood sample."
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 “Do you think you can pinpoint the exact substance?”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Hard to say for certain. It's a little unusual."
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Pauses okay. Thinks. “Thank you.” Starts to walk away. Then turns to Squire. "This is something I have to do... alone, but if you can keep Guiscard distracted that would help me. He seems to be showing up at the wrong times lately..." Looks straight at Squire. “Please, help me with this.”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Hesitates. Then slowly nods.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Gee, what's your hurry? I thought you wanted to know about this blood sample?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Starts to walk away hurriedly. “I do, which is why I need to multi-task. I think it's all connected. Please, Dr., keep looking into the sample, use any of my supplies that are in my satchel. I'll be back as soon as possible.” Turns and hurries around the corner, then ducks around a few more in case she is being followed, then heads straight for the jail and the peddler, again.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Watching man departs.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Well that just turned bizarre."
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Squire hears the distinct call of her Master. “Squire!”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire leaps to her feet and runs to his call.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 He turns the alley. She nearly bumps into him. She is used to being frightened, but although stern, his expression seems calmer. "Out late again?"
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Nods and holds up dead flower.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Breathes deeply, slightly annoyed. "Nevermind this, I am looking for Nichole. She left the Tavern, she seemed upset.” “Do you know where she is?”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Pauses, then shrugs.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Squire may notice that his prize dagger is missing from his belt.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire: O_O
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 "Do you know for certain...tell me Nopre'om. Do you know where Nichole is?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Finally makes it to the jail and prays that new guards are there, and to her benefit there were.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Signs: We met briefly then departed. I don’t know where she went.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 After talking with the guards she finally persuades them to let her talk to the prisoner.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Eyes narrow. "What did she say to you last?"
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Signs: She said ‘I'll be back’
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Squire is surely wondering why he isn't dragging her off right now.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole enters the prisoner's interrogation room, the guards agreeing to stand right outside the door. The peddler is tied to a chair, arms behind him. The door closes and Nichole bites her lip then takes a step forward.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire is insanely nervous right now.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 He sees it. “Well come with me. I am going to the jail. One of the guards said he would loan me a dagger.”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Peddler: Low smirk. “So, you came to finish the job?” Looks up and meets her gaze.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire: O_O Steps in front of him frantically. Signs: Don't worry, I'll grab it.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Doesn't know how to interrogate but musters up all the acting within her.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “Don't be silly...you don't know any guards like I do.”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 "You know why I'm here. I want answers. What was on that dagger...."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Signs: I know them enough. I can get it for you. Sets off.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “Enough Squire! Besides I have a task for you. Passes a satchel.”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Deflates... Takes satchel.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Peddler: Looks up at Nichole, his face beaten and bleeding. Nichole: Pales at the sight. Peddler: “Heh, too much for ya... healer.” Nichole: Swallows, hands quivering. “What did you do... what do you know??”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “Madamselle Sukoshi gave these to me. She suggested Nichole take a look at them.”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Blinks. Nods and signs: Ok, I'll find her!
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Peddler: Rolls head back and smiles a cold long smile. “I suppose it doesn't matter anymore whether you know or not... but seeing as it's got ya in a panic... I think I'll keep it to myself.”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 So go towards the tavern. I'll meet you there once I get my dagger. Marches off. Taking satchel back.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Steps in front of him again.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Takes a step forward. “Tell me!” Reaches her hand out.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Signs: But you can’t!
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “What…” Leans down, gives sign for permission to speak. “What did you say?”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Scratches her head trying to hide her nervousness,
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Peddler: “What, you gonna use your abilities to force me to tell?” Smirks. “That's a bit dark for a healer like you... isn't.”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Wrestles with her inner guilt of lying to her master.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Faces goes a shade paler. “I-I…”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Whatever the strange calm was in his voice is now gone, he is back to his stern self. “I want to give you another chance Nopre’om. Where...is...Nichole?”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Peddler: “Fine, I give you permission, you can see what I did and the fate you'll have.” Grins. “Go ahead. It's too late to do anything anyway... you've been marked.”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Staring, waiting for answer.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Her training rings in her head. Thoushaltnotlie.Thoushaltnotlie.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Staring.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Starts to tremble all over, then slowly reaches her hand out and touches the side of Peddler’s face.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Staring.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Fidgets and signs finally: She seemed really distressed. I didn't want to bother her.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Closes her eyes.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Unmoved...waiting for explanation.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Knock on the jail door. "Nichole are you in there?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: After a few moments she pulls her hand back, almost as if burned. Her eyes are wide with shock and fear, tears threatening to fall. “What have you done…?”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Staring.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Signs: She wanted to be alone and she asked me to...asked us....not to bother her.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Peddler: Evil grin. “Just doin' business.”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Action comes into his voice. “Follow me.” He moves into a brisk pace.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Takes a step back.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Doesn't argue. Follows him.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Another loud knock on the jail door. "Hey Nicole are you in there?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Finally realizes that she's being called for. Looks around trying to breath and gain composure. “Umm... Yes... Yes, I am! I'm coming.”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Without halting, “I warned Nichole...not to let her personal objective jeopardize her.” Now pauses in front of jail door. “We can't let her keep going alone.” Draws sword.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Peddler: Low smiling laugh. Nichole: Opens the door and runs out.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 To Beakerson: “OUT OF THE WAY DOCTOR!”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Pretty much tramples Beakerson.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Beakerson is shocked at Guisgards action. "Whoa whoa! What the jimeny is going on!"
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Meets Nichol's eyes.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Freezes for a second seeing Guiscard and Squire, and Beakerson. The guards also confused.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Guards see Guiscard's stance (he called them with him) their weapons drawn.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire hides a guilty look. Pulls out her weapon.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Stares back at Guiscard for a second and bites her lip. “I'm sorry... I'm sorry.” Makes a mad dash for the door, getting nicked by one of the swords in the process and goes at full speed out the door.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Guards go to check on prisoner.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Gee I'm fine, thanks for asking."
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Guiscard trips her with the cross of his sword. He was in direction of exit.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: “Stop!! Let me go!” Scrambles to her feet and begins to run again.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “Enough Nichole! ENOUGH!” Grabs her arms. Guards assist.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire looks hurt.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Has everyone gone mad?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Kicks him. “No, you don't understand! Stay away from me!!”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “These guards will arrest you, foolish child! Calm down!”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Did I miss something?"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: "You don't understand, please let. Me. Go!!!" Kicks out at a guard and manages to get loose and bolts again. “I have to leave or you will all be in danger.” “I can't stay. I can't. I'm sorry.” Starts to sob and makes it outside.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire signs: Wait!
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Guard 1: "Should we go after her?" Guard 2: "What happened in that cell?" Guard 3: I'll tell the Sheriff.” Guard 1: “Will you go after her?” Guiscard rubs his beard. Looks to Squire.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Can't we all just take a giant chill pill and talk?"
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Turns to Beakerson
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire pauses for a moment glancing at Giscard, then bolts after Nichole.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Her side is throbbing from the wound of the sword and her world begins to swim as she runs for the tent to grab her belongings.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Simply follows. “Doctor! Come here.” “I need your healing hands.”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Sure whatever."
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Thinking: How many people know? That peddler, the stranger who came into the tavern, now Squire... how many more know?? I can't trust anyone.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Runs in and accidently crashes into Nichole.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 While walking. “How is your healing skill Doctor?”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Sees Nichole and holds up her hands to wait. Signs: It's just you and me. Can we talk?
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 "I can't let more people die or get hurt because of me, I can't--" Falls to the ground from running into Squire. “I can't,” Crying. “I'm sorry.”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Did you just seriously ask me that? I'm a doctor for crying out loud."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Kneels beside her and puts her arm around her.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Looks away, annoyed. “Madmsoille Nichole has been injured for some time, but will not heal herself. It would ease my mind if you could do something about that.”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 “Squire, everything I told you... there is more. I can't explain now...I have to leave. I won't cause more people to get hurt or maybe die... because of me.”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Nichole hears a small accented voice. “But yu need to hear me.”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Well sure thing, but why won't she heal herself?"
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “That is my concern.”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Pauses at the sound of Squire's voice.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Squire: “You can’t just leave Nichole. Talk to me. Are we not friends?”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Eyes well up with silent tears. “ ...yes. We are.”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Sees hurt and fear in Squire’s eyes. “Please?”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Hey, you can't keep information like that from the Doctor. Now what the snazzlebot is going on."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Sits beside her: “Ve ar both in troble for zis.”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 His eyes snap at him and narrow, wondering, Did you really study at a Vachelous university?
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Looks up and sees Sir Guiscard and Dr. Beakerson.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Looks fearfully at Giscard.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Beakerson runs over to her. "Don't run away Nicole! I can help you."
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Holds up a hand for them to stay back.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “DOCTOR!”
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Signs to Nichole: We can go somewhere else if you like.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Good nerf does everybody forget I'm a doctor?"
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Slowly approaches, arms fall to his side.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Watches them approach, then looks away in shame.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Look I don't know what is wrong with you Nichole, but I can help."
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Arms raise slowly. He removes his sword and sheath, placing it next to a rock. He takes a seat.
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Signs: Give it a chance to work things out.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Glances at Squire, then Dr. Beakerson, then Sir Guiscard. Finally, she gives a small nod of agreement.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 To Nichole: "Mademoiselle?"
Squirewalker05/28/2019 Whispers so Gisguard wouldn't hear: “Zank yu.”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Glances up at Guiscard then back at the ground. Says meekly, “Yes…”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 His posture is stiff. “Do you know what this is…?” Removes a tiny vial from his satchel. It is a healing potion of great potency, perfectly made. It contains a single tiny flower floating in the liquid. It is the potion Sukoshi tried to make the other day, the one that made Guiscard numb. It is perfected now.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Looks up and stares at the vial.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Eyes motion to Squire not to do or say anything.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Recognition dawns in her eyes. “Yes…”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “How do you know what it is?”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Most healers know what it is."
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Staring.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 “It's-- it's what Sukoshi gave you but... different.”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Gentle night wind.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Umm... So you going to give it to her or what?"
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Ignores the doctor. Eyes stay on Nichole.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “Answer me now...how...do YOU...know that this is different?”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 “Because... I recognize the herbs.”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "O my gosh, what's wrong with you? If it's going to heal her than stop with the drama and give it to her. "
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Blinks at doctors comments. Maintains composure. “Correct Mademoiselle! Very correct.” “But the question I am asking Nichole, is how you know this...this is a question of identity.” “Do you see?”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Good nerf you’re killing me smalls!"
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Slightly confused.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “Tell me...why does a gifted healer's heart bleed so much?”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Glances at Dr. Beakerson ... “Because... someone poisoned my system. I usually naturally heal within a few hours.” “It'll take a night and it'll be out of my system and I'll heal quickly again.”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Opens vial.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "That's not what Guiscard told me."
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: To Dr. Beakerson. “He didn't know.”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “He is right...you've been bleeding ever since we first met.” Applies a few small drops to Nichol's wounds.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Flinches. “You don't need to waste that on me. I promise I'll be fine.”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Gives her a hard stare. "I've heard enough lies!" It says.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Meets his gaze, hers steady for once. “You don't know everything about me, Sir Guiscard. Truly. Don't waste something on me when it can be used to help someone else…”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 By now Beakerson has had enough. "For crying out loud." He walks over to Nichole and places a hand on her shoulder. Uses the heal all wounds ability.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Guiscard doesn't stop him.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Stares in shock at Dr. Beakerson.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “With him around...who are you afraid of hurting?”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Good gravy you guys are such drama queens."
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Face goes a shade paler at the mention of hurting people. Bites her lip, scared and unsure of what to say.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Looks over to Squire. Squire is witholding her excitement.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Turns to Guiscard. "Next time, don't take so long to heal a person in need."
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 “You only healed the outside, Doctor.” Looks to Squire again.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Stands up.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: “Thank you, Dr…”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Don't mention it. I do what I can. Just next time don't be so afraid to ask for help okay? It's not a healthy lifestyle."
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Squire and Guiscard hold eyes a moment. Guiscard to Squire: “No more lies Squire.” “But here is a new task. Take care of Nichole.”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Looks down at the ground, wondering if she should really confide in them about what's going on...
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Leans in. Squire gets a little nervous. Guiscard: “Don't let her out of your sight. Understand?” Squire excitedly nods.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Glances towards Squire when she's not looking, a flash of fear crossing her eyes. “Why?” “Why do you want to help me?” “You don't know me, all I do is cause you trouble... put you in danger. Why would you help me?”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Because everyone needs a friend kiddo."
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Doesn’t answer. Attaches sword and sheath again. Whispers. “I don't have that full answer Elyon!” Turns.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: “Guiscard. Thank you.”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Turns back around. Speaks without looking. “You’re welcome. starts walking away.” While passing Beakerson. “Good work Doctor.”
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Beakerson let out a small chuckle. "Guiscard buddy, you and I might need to have a little chat later."
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Squire turns to Nichole, eyes filled with glee and hope. You can talk to me about what is upsetting you, she signs. Guiscard wants to know, he thinks your valuable.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Pauses a moment, thinking. Says quietly, but still hearable, in response to Guiscard as he walks away. “The same goes for you, Sir Guiscard. Don't bear it all alone…”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Guiscard: “Anytime, Good Doctor! Anytime!”
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Glances towards, Squire, after reading the signing. “That is partially the problem, No'preom…”
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Eyes ask, "Yes."
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 "Well, I think my work here is done. If y'all need me, just have Squire fall out of another tree and you'll probably find me."
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Squire gives a hefty thumbs up.
VioletofSherwood05/28/2019 Nichole: Gives the Dr. a small smile and a thankful nod.
ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Beakerson nods back and walks off singing a small tune.
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Guiscard a short distance off, waiting for Beakerson, when Beakerson catches up, they walk off together. ”As they walk off Did you really study in Vachelous?"ThatGuyOverThere05/28/2019 Rolls eyes. "No Guiscard I sent my pet gopher to study for me! Of course I studied at Vachelous."
Yankee Samarai05/28/2019 Guiscard swallows, unaccustomed to asking personal questions such as, Then what happened to your accent? “NEVER MIND!” Picks up his walking pace. “Forget I asked."
[little song: Sukoshi was there, but just didn’t know how to help so stayed out of it. Until that last scene of course.] To be Continued...
