"Sisters" | Juniper, Squire, Beakerson, Orla
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019
Orla still sitting by fire, calming down.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire awakens in the cave, half groggy and half wide-alert sensing something off with the number of people in the cave.
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla turns head quickly, spotting her. Eyes wide. Still holding coals close to heart as possible without burning her dress.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Juniper is tending to the fire and isn't startled having already sensed the person there.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire spots her to and jumps to her feet pulling out her sword at the unfamiliar face.
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 Beakerson finishes bandaging the wound. "There you are. Feeling any better?" Looks up to see Squire approaching. "Well look who's awaken. You feeling alright Squire?"
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Oral gasps in fear at sight of sword. Staggers back against cave wall.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire gives Beakerson an awkward look not being able to sign with her hands that are holding the sword.
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 "Whoa, whoa, put the sword down Squire!"
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Sees its just a frightened child and gives it an apologetic look.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Juniper stands still but is prepared to jump in front of Orla if necessary.
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla: Shaking.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 "It's alright Orla."
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Then swings and points it at the other stranger.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Takes a step back and her traveling cloak hood falls back.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire freezes and her purple eyes go wide with disbelief.
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 "It's okay Squire, they're friends. Please put the sword down, you're scaring Orla here."
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire: "Nichole?"
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Moves slowly watching Squire and making her way to Orla. Freezes upon hearing the name. Meets Squire's gaze. "Who?"
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla quickly scurries behind Juniper, watching closely.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Beakersons words sink in and she shakes herself out of her stupor and studies the stranger more closely.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Juniper straightens and stands in front of Orla. Frowns slightly watching Squire.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Her sword lowers to the ground. And the disbelief in her eyes is replaced with sadness and confusion.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 "Did... you say... Nichole?"
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 "Wait, you speak?"
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Juniper reaches out a comforting hand to Orla.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire shakes her head, without looking up and puts away her sword. "Sorry." Quickly signs, I mistook you. Backs off. Turns away to wipe away some tears beginning to form.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 As her cloak moves, it resembles the cloak that the Maire Glasisan Healer that came before Nichole's death. And her clothes have a Maire Gliasian feel but more earthy.
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 "Umm, what just happened?"
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla takes hand softly, staring hard at Squire.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Juniper: Watches Squire for a moment then relaxes. "It's... it's alright."
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Looks up at Juniper. Realizes she is sad. Something is wrong.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire doesn't respond, trying to gather herself.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Looks down at Orla. Squeezes her hand then,"Let's go," And slowly walks towards Squire.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Signs to Beakerson: You need help?
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 "Did... did you know a Healer named Nichole?"
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 "Dude, enough with the signing, I know I heard you speak."
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 "I've... been looking for her for a few weeks now."
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla watches, listening.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Gives Juniper a suspicious look, despite the tears.
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla: "I know of this Nichole..." Her voice soft. "Kil'Kenny said she died."
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Ignores Beakerson and everyone. Approaching Squire like she would a scared animal. Keeping eye contact. Stops short at Orla's words. "You knew Nichole!" Turns around to Orla, eyes wide.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Clutches her blue scarf and stares back at Juniper.
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 "Kil'Kenny? What does Kil'Kenny know? And why does he want to kill Kenny anyway?"
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla: nods. "Kil'Kenny--that's why I was with him. I knew her father."
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Pauses and looks at Beakerson seriously. "Kil'Kenny doesn't want to kill anyone named Kenny."
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire turns curiously to Orla.
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 "Then why does he call himself Kil'Kenny? I feel bad for anyone named Kenny now."
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla still serious. "I...I don't know why."
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Juniper pales and sits down on a rock in the cave. "You... you knew...." Voice trails off for a moment as the news sinks in. "Her... "... my. "Father."
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 "We must look after the Kenny's of this world and protect them from Kil'Kenny!" Beakerson declares.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire subconsiously reaches for her blade, getting uneasy.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Hands start to shake for a moment. Then Juniper shakes her head and forces her hands to stop shaking.
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla reaches out and grabs Juniper's hand. "It's all right."
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Signs: Are you... Squire: "Sister? "To Nichole?"
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla looks at Squire, listening.
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 Gasps. "I knew I heard her speak!"
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Starts in surprise then looks a bit awkward, but still pays attention.
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla, stares at Juniper: "You must be the one Kil'Kenny met. Who told him Nichole died." Bows head sadly. "We came to find her."
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Juniper looks up. Seeming to remember that Squire was there. An aching pain in her chest is beginning to grow and when she speaks she has to swallow hard to keep her voice steady. "Ummm...." Swallows. "Yes. She was my sister." Eyes look pained. "I never met her... "I was hoping that I could find her... but," Bites her lips together. "But I was too late."
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire eyes turn sad again, but then after a hard swallow, she looks at Juniper with a sympathic look. Slowly sits beside her.
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 Beakerson's brain is still somewhat focused on Kil'Kenny. "I mean, can you imagine if there was a Kil'Beakerson? Well now that I think of it, that was the name of just about everybody I went to school with."
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Looks towards Squire. "Did... did you know her..." Squeezes Orla's hand.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Nods quietly and grasps the scarf around herself again.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Juniper looks at the scarf and realizes it's Maire Gliasian but doesn't show her realization.
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire wants to comfort her, but is awkward on speaking again.
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla: Quietly, to Squire. "I am sorry your friend is dead. Her father said she was a great and rare healer." She then looks at Juniper. "I am sorry that your sister is dead."
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire to Juniper quietly. "She waz a beautiful persuhn." [Vachelous Accent] Chokes and turns her head to look at the ground again.
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 Beakerson lets out a sniff. "That she was. I miss her. Even though I didn't know her that long."
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Juniper looks up. "You knew her too?"
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 Beakerson nods. "I didn't know her very well or for long. But I like to think we were friends."
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla bows head and closes eyes. Begins murmuring a Viridian dirge, wishing honor on the dead in low, soft background voice.
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 "Even a healer can't save everybody." Beakerson sniffs again remembering Jade as well.
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Juniper: Looks down and feels tears beginning to come. "I have never even seen her... what did... she look like? What was she like? "Did she even know... no I know she never knew about me. Sibéal told me she hadn't known..."
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Squire looks up and puts a hand on her arm. Says through soft tears. "She looked like you and...and she wuz so kind--"
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 "She was nice, but scared. Wouldn't hurt a fly."
VioletofSherwood10/10/2019 Smiles at Squire and then takes her hand as well. Beakerson's words register. "What was she scared of?"
ThatGuyOverThere10/10/2019 He shrugs. "Not sure really. Though part of it seemed to be with letting others help her."
Squirewalker10/10/2019 Shakes her head and signs: There is much to explain.
Commando Chipmunk10/10/2019 Orla finishes softly. Takes a deep breath.
