"Mouse and Cat" | Ananias, Tovian, Sukoshi, Agent Wimble
Nighttime
Little song09/04/2019 [Sukoshi] Hiding behind a group of trees scoping out the next leg.
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 A hand reaches out from behind and grabs Sukoshi by the shoulder.
Little song09/04/2019 Foot comes up in a kick stopping before contact.. "What are you doing?"
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "I thought I told you not to come out here alone." Ananias hisses. "Baldwin's men are everywhere and in case you've forgotten, there is a large bounty on your head."
Little song09/04/2019 "So what do you expect me to do? Sit around and wait to here what’s become of my sister. Stealth is better with just one you know? This is my forte. I’ll be fine. Go back."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "This isn't the time to play hero. We are working on a plan to get your sister out, but I don't need you jeopardizing our chances because of your impatience. You getting caught only make things worse for us and your sister."
Little song09/04/2019 "I’m not getting caught. I’m gathering us intel so we can make a plan."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "Then you'll do it with backup. I've done most of the scouting already over the past few nights. Tovian and I are going to see if we can't get close enough to see exactly where the prisoners are being held."
Little song09/04/2019 ... Deep breath. "Sorry. I was trained to stay calm but it’s hard too."
Yankee Samarai09/04/2019 A strange sound is heard overhead, it is in the distance, but gets closer and closer and closer
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "I understand. It can be difficult when a family member is in trouble, but you must have patience. We will free them."
Yankee Samarai09/04/2019 High in the sky, the pair can see airships, emblazoned with the yellow sword of the Sanctified sailing overhead. There are three large transport types, and twenty or more smaller ones that appear nimble, meant for battle.
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 Ananias hears the sound and looks up, but stays low in the thick foliage of the forest.
Little song09/04/2019 Getting lower.. "The stakes are growing by the hour it seems."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "I'm afraid we don't have much time left to make our move." He pauses. "Is there any chance they might ship off Kashi with a smaller band of knights back to Kokka? Assuming Baldwin still thinks he's captured you. Or will your people come here to the Outpost to pick her up?"
Little song09/04/2019 "She’s his child too. He’d give a sum for her... probably."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "That doesn't answer my question. Will they send off Kashi back to Kokka, or will your people come here to pick her up?"
Little song09/04/2019 "They would send her back I think."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "That might be our window of opportunity to free her then, but it doesn't help us breakout Guiscard. And there's no telling when they might ship your sister back to Kokka."
Dark Matter09/04/2019 Raccoon accidentally bumps into Sukoshi.
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 Ananias isn't exactly happy to see the racoon.
Little song09/04/2019 Picks up raccoon and chucks it back into the forest. "Yeah... do you know why they took him?"
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "Baldwin is Guiscard's brother. Apparently they aren't on very good terms right now."
Little song09/04/2019 "Would he kill him?" Moving to a different hiding spot.
Dark Matter09/04/2019 Raccoon lands before coming back, looking miffed. Ignores them and starts heading through the grass toward the encampment.
Little song09/04/2019 Watches it.
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 Grabs the racoon by the tail and pulls it back. Says to Sukoshi. "I'm not sure what he plans on doing with him, which is why we need to act soon rather than later."
Dark Matter09/04/2019 It nips his hand.
Little song09/04/2019 That thing's not normal.
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "Neither of us is exactly normal."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 Tovian steps from behind a tree. "It's no better from the other side."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "Baldwin's forces have grown stronger." Ananias replies to Tovian. "Everyday we spend trying to find a way in, is another day for Baldwin to step up his game."
Little song09/04/2019 "... I could turn myself in..."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "That could work."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "And what good will that do us? You'll be just another prisoner we will have to rescue."
Dark Matter09/04/2019 Tosses coin up and catches it.
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "Say we use it as more of a distraction?"
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "How so?"
Anonymous User09/04/2019 Quirks eye at raccoon.
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "You can't be serious."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "Tell me Ananias, do I look like i am joking?"
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "No, but Barney says your a few corn cobs shy of a picnic."
Little song09/04/2019 "I was thinking trade for my sister and then if I can get near Guiscard, I can pick the locks. Hopefully."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 That won't do.
Dark Matter09/04/2019 Churrs excitedly and pulls out a curious set of instruments. When they look closer, it's a lock picking kit.
Anonymous User09/04/2019 Doesn't get it. "Do you compare me to a picnic?"
Little song09/04/2019 Small smile.
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 Ignores Tovian. Sees what the racoon has in his hands. "That will come in handy if we can get in."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "Ah, it appears that the rodent has more to him than music. "I have a plan."
Dark Matter09/04/2019 Tucks the lock picking kit away in a metal compartment and starts nibbling a blade of grass.
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "I think I have an idea myself, but go ahead."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "We tie a shrub to the rodent and send him in slowly." Looks at the others. "Not what you were thinking?"
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "You want to risk everyone's lives on the chance that the racoon will be able to get into that fortress and somehow unlock the cell? Then what?"
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "Then it's up to us to create a distraction and lure the forces away. We did it before with Maki. Then one there away, the locks get picked and Kashi and Guiscard get out."
Little song09/04/2019 "I can play cat and mouse."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 Ananias just shakes his head. "I don't think we have a distraction big enough to lure an entire army away, let alone a third of it." Looks to Sukoshi. "Your idea of trading yourself in might work if we can disguise ourselves to get in with you."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "And who was the one complaining about one person trading himself in?"
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "Not if we go in with him in disguise."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "And where do you plan on getting disguises from? "Are we all going to strap bushes to ourselves."
Little song09/04/2019 "Do you still have the bodies of the fallen sanctified?"
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "They might just be our ticket in."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 Turns to Sukoshi. "Nice to know someone is thinking."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "Says the guy who wanted to rely on a racoon to save the day."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "That could still work."
Little song09/04/2019 "We can’t trust it."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "Your sister..."
Little song09/04/2019 "What about her?"
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "You don't want to trust a possibly great idea when it could get your sister out."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 Facepalm.
Little song09/04/2019 "The raccoon... I just don’t trust animals. If it even is one."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "Fine, then get the disguises."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "In the meantime, let's see if we can't finish scouting the fortress to try and get a layout of the inside."
Little song09/04/2019 "Alright. Want me to go for tunics or scout?"
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "Go ahead and grab the tunics. Hopefully they're still there. If not, we may have to ambush a patrol."
Little song09/04/2019 "Okay." Dashes off silently.
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "Tovian, let's finish scouting and get back to the cave as soon as possible."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "Lets go left."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "Alright then. Let's move out."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 Crouches near edge of woods. "Look there. Their water barrel seems unattended and close to the forest's edge. If we could slip poison into it that could help lessen the amount of guards."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "Perhaps, but we also don't want them giving the water to the prisoners. Make a note of it though. We might find another use for it."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "Well we could make it just knock them out, that way if the prisoners do drink it, it won't kill them."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "That is a possibility." Thinks for a moment. "It could work. Do have an antidote for that? If the prisoners should drink it we would want to be able to wake them up quickly."
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "No. But we could put just enough in the water to get them out once the guards start falling over."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "It'd be slow to have to carry them out. How long do the effects last?"
Anonymous User09/04/2019 "I can get however much time we need."
ThatGuyOverThere09/04/2019 "We'll decide on that later then. For now let's finish the scouting and inform the others of the plan."
