Tidefall | E14: "Tapioca Pearls And Disorderly Conduct"

from Des Moines and Dragons Hosted by Paul Privitera

Last Time on Tidefall... Our group of adventurers finally started acting like proper adventurers again. Salt gave an impassioned speech to change the hearts of the people, Flip and Hera only fought a little instead of going all out, and #SaltGang gained a new member. Leah is very, very reluctant. But seems to be bearing with it, for the moment. The group found their way to a bar to make a home base. Hera was constantly keeping an eye out, while Salt learned Hera is short for Heraldine Elizabeth O'Neal the III. While hanging in the Bar, Flip learned Uriah's great secret, his fear of losing SaltGang, but he learned this while stealing a gift he gave him. So it's not quite all roses. But he upgraded BertHa with some new upgraded bullets, so it should all work out. The group then split up. Hera, Leah, and Joe followed the group of Brass Guildies in the streets, while Salt and the rest gathered intel. Turns out the city has been growing a bit of an underbelly, and they found their way to the heart of it in this section of the city. But the estranged couple couldn't quite keep a lid on things, so some of the Brass Guild members noticed Leah and Hera right as the rest of the crew walked in. What will happen in Tidefall next? Find out now.

more tidefall it is spooky time you're right this is October yeah I bought a bowl full of orange candies or dark candies really wow that's a real little band thing to do it candy corn I know everyone always thought it was candy corn is disgusting I always loved it I don't know candy corn you guys are discussing or great we also have where there's but that wasn't me I mean it sounds like we all enjoy it and I think we're the outliers because a lot of people think it's gross I think it's a gravel I like to think I'm the middle ground between the absolute discuss and sure there is like I can handle three and like okay that's enough oh I classify me as like the disgust for candy corn you guys are monsters well I guess but you're the one buying it I didn't I'm trying to tell you it's not going to corn it's orange flavored hard candies oh my brain heard orange heart my okay I get you know it's just the it's just the GM and you just like initially just injecting conflict before we even get started yeah so it's up to no one to see it's weird yeah there's no video in this our turn my mouth so gross can you smell the orange through the internet is it a citrus or is it a sure I don't know I don't trust candy it's sweet then it's sour in a nice little reversal there's like a little packet of like sweet a little packet of like sour in the middle so you get a little reward at the end is that where it's always our I forget we're heads are sour than sweet okay I haven't I just yeah I speaking of things I haven't had since the like 90s or 2000s today I got a DDR math nice one I had a moment where I was obsessed with DDR for like I just woke up today and it's like my brain remembers being a teenager and I got a DDR mat on eBay here's some foot arrows right so I'm really excited for that to come but that's about the most exciting thing good good I'm coming out of my summer chrysalis as the cool weather starts to arrive and fall begins to whatever the opposite of bloom is with her will settle in love study season develop so I'm pretty pumped up those my family and I are planning are going to Colorado here in about a month so it'll be all of fun nice how to school good literally that should be really nice we want to go camping we've gone camping all summer and it's like maybe we should go some do some fall camping but Colorado's a little chilly in like October it is you know I'm feeling I don't know we want to do like a root 66 road trip that'd be sweet I think that would be really fun tell a white name a queen I said hi I just like there's a bunch of those like roadside attractions that like that what's the way Lynn Tulsa and like I just I really want to go say hi to the big loose side of the road whaling Tulsa right absolutely yeah I just every couple months I feel like I need to leave the state and I just go somewhere I just got back from Tennessee did a thing over Labor Day well that's really fun yes I hate driving too much to do that I the point of getting married to sleep after I I weird I weirdly enough learned through recording tidefall back before I lived here and every month I would drive up to Iowa to record this podcast and then I moved here and I started realizing I was missing doing drives before now I just every once in a while ago I'm just a little weirdo yeah like now candy coin and you like long distance driving a few monster when I prefer I prefer long drives by myself if I have other people then I can't play my D&D podcast on Bluetooth but how about myself I can you know we do that in the car that's not weird it I guess the people like depends on whom with right some people enjoy that some people don't I was like to talk and I don't like that yeah and two people's the worst number because one if you get two people you still have the entire time because there's that expectation to talk the whole time or like be there and like there if you have three or four you can shift off shifts but two is the worst amount of people I don't mean to get married to people who are on your same vibe like because I'll just like fall asleep and not talk to Ethan for six hours I mean yeah that while he listens to Dungeons & Dragons podcasts and then they'll try to talk to me like shish I'm sleeping so I had a kid I think probably would screw that up because you can't just be like no it's shut up time I'm told that that's not exactly kosher Christopher will tell me that it's not okay to tell people to shut up oh that's good Christopher yeah it's great there you go that's that is correct good good good good well the first week of the Renaissance fair the first week I went really well yay our Scotts play golf show was a success to the point you know the whole like premise of that one is Scottish married couple wife gets upset with husband who just is laying around but go play golf what's that the way she describes it though husband thinks it's this really weird orgy in a field somewhere as one does right and to like hock our show we would walk around trying to get people to go to it I would hand my scene partner a pair of blue golf balls and we just we just walk around like oh Scotts play golf but this time at this stage come for the fun stay for the blue balls you know things like that so funny I was checking a DM thing real quick while we were talking and my brain turned off for about five seconds as I was checking a thing and then I heard the word orgy in a field and I was like wait what in the two seconds that I tuned out what I miss and it was going up rails yep surprise but we worked in this new gag with a sandwich board chalkboard me balancing it on myself and some like sidewalk chalk and I would go up one of the people like she was just very like it's one of those I'm willing but I'm not willing types you know and so I'm explaining to her so I'm sitting there I have my one of my feet up on this bench I'm like I'm gonna need you to throw me a pet of balls to go with this new tight you'll and thinking about for the show and of course you know bright red it's all fun I'm not and she's like look at it well I'm not going to I'm gonna critique your work after I'm done so she draws the balls and everything else I asked her to draw and when I look at it evidently one of them she put a smiley face and horns on oh no right that's very inappropriate right I mean it's inappropriate for a rated our show should get that looked at right I'm just one like I've been called the beast before but this is new um but another guy came in he was dressed as a plague doctor but he had a sign that said free exams right I'm just like oh it writes itself because there's this other part right talk about like what kind of activity is it we're grown men are going around handling each other's ball sacks and well there you go okay free exam guy how's going so overall very good time we would walk in and the merchants are like where's your husband's blue balls and I got a spore and for the kill I was wearing I'm like well she graciously but turned him to me this morning there you go so happy endings all around right so it's gonna be a very interesting gear shift for the

beautiful example of a stoic and heroic citizen we should all aspire to be like him be at peace good people we are watching over you also tapioca is good yeah for the people listening what's in tapioca pudding post on our social media let's get this figured out don't turn this into engagement oh but that's all I've been doing the last week humans though speaking of engagement if you're currently listening to this all on a road trip don't do it now when you're home and you're not driving let us know it's not I'm curious I'm thinking about that is it not Boba I thought that's all Boba was man mysteries of everything I think tapioca is its own thing but I could be wrong I think it's tapioca pearls is this the chaos that we get when we record an episode on a Thursday night it's gonna weekend sorry I'm welcome to be special type of episode tapioca what is it is it in Boba let's find out I'm on my orange hard candy sugar rush so oh oh second tapioca starch what yup Boba pearls are made of tapioca starch so you guys are at the bar someone someone someone definitely has a Boba tea I don't care who but someone has a Boba tea wasn't their last episode but it's your I don't care I got yeah absolutely your I am yep a rise gotta Boba tea tapioca fat like oh there it is anyway so Hera and who's at the table here it's Hera is it just two of yours one of the Joe right again with you yeah sure cuz I'm trying to remember to split up in teams to recover the yes the team was that's right it was just yeah Hera Leah and Joe was your group of three yep so I don't know if you put Joe at another table or not it sounds like something you would do but if he's covering the door okay so the two of you read a table Joe is near the door and then right as the doors open up and in comes flip flop awrya and is that it is someone else that's all that's all somebody else that other guy here comes pepper well the reason is I know the viewers can't do this I'm looking in this corner on rolls 20 and salt is way off the other side for whatever reason so my eyes didn't see him he was not there so the chest so thank you for rectified it not that matters this is just a purely visual scene they're not a visual but yes I promise not to forget you again you guys are you push in I presume that it's also like leading the way in pushing the doors and then as that happens a brass girl's member goes Leah and that's when we cut last time so right now a brass girl member recognizes Leah says her name because of trying to be subtle but also not subtle enough apparently what do you do is it like is Hera doing something is salt doing something so consults walks in pushes in the doors and then sees and hears a brass guild member and he's not obviously brass guild you know they're not you know giantly proclaiming you know giant things but it's pretty nice is Leah yeah he recognizes Leah he's got one of those little help ins on right recognizes Leah what do you guys do whether it's Hera or salt or someone else so where's this guy in relation to salt salt salt so the guy was another table so if Leah basically you've got Leah and hair at a table you've got you coming in with flip flop and Joe was it a table or we have the bar I think it was a table so like Orion was at a table near the door and then there was another table of other brass gillies show is that a table near the door great yep I they are still in my head one of the same if you're not go throw the names again backwards just to really you know I'm just gonna go ahead not do that for avatars for Joe and they are the same anyways can I get can I catch salt's attention can I meet him in eyes in that one second yeah great if the first thing is like you know the brass guild looks to Leah if you want to immediately disengage and look at salt like what do you say something I walk up and slap the shit out of salt okay and I immediately go into a vicious tirade about how fucking dare you and in the process of that I actually back into a table and cause all of the drinks to smash off of the table and I'm trusting that Leah is not an idiot and can duck out the back or out of harm's way okay so man I'm deciding if I want you to roll like a deception check or an athletic strike to see if you actually get the shit out of how how are you trying to pull your punches oh yeah it's really loud yeah like okay I mean it's probably feel bad about it later but like yeah she's not trying to yeah you're still gonna hit him but you're not like hitting him and you're just okay you're gonna be rolling me a deception or whatever the club is in this game I would like to help and give her a blue die if I could by joining in this option yeah how do you do that I'm you're cool I just want to see she comes up she slaps him and she starts like tearing into him and I just start like uncle pepper not again when the jokes come back it's great yeah yeah and I at some point I'm just like no sweetie stay out of this this is between your uncle and I this is a conversation that we've been meaning to have for a long time you know I'm on your side and belligerent and I appreciate your help but this is you can't you you can't get involved in this I just see some of his yeah roll me a deception check yeah or whatever it is I don't know this whole system is foreign to me anymore it's just a section I have you know what I have a zero deception but you've got but you've got a three in presence so okay I should really fix that at some point okay rolling out wow so that was a net of zero successes and for advantage so you're except for my the show of a story point okay so you spend a story point to buy some success what do you do with your forward advantage I smash some more glasses like I like in so I go to slap him again and kind of shove him but I shove him into another table and like three more people like get into the into the out of the way and it just causes that much more chaos there is nobody in this bar who is not looking at me now okay cool so thank you mechanically we'll give both you a blue dot you and salt to get a blue down whatever you get next good so meanwhile that is all happening at the door and how much attention you paying towards Leah and the grascales are you like going all in on this performance who me yeah yeah okay cool I am I vaguely have an idea of where they are but no I am dedicated going perfect okay to my craft you guys are making a lot of noise a lot of people in the bar are looking at the two of you in your coral you know flip it helped a little bit got pushed away it's a whole thing a riot was walking in with flip and flop a riot starts to like move towards this flip do you stop him or help guide him or what do you do anything or just because he kind of do like a go-around motion okay don't get involved but do enter the bar okay yeah he enters the bar there's a moment it looks like he's about to like assist salt with something but then flip like tugs at his you know shirt or something and like points in another way and then he just goes into a table and I think I think I understand what the hair is trying to do and I don't think he told me guys I think he just thinks it's hilarious okay I'm gonna roll I do 100 just to see what a ride does I've got two ideas in my head I want his bad I don't know okay so I think he goes in and does this really awkward like he goes after the bar then decides now I'm not gonna go to the bar and then he like starts walk the direction of Leah then he chooses not to then he goes and sits with Joe it's it's really yes exactly yeah and everyone the bars looking in your guys's direction and rise like I don't I shouldn't go there and then he goes the bar and then he's like just want to talk to someone he head spurs Leah doesn't go that and then he eventually sits down at the table with Joe Joe is just like quietly like he's just doesn't want to be noticed by all because right now most of the bars looking in the direction of Hera insults and I think at this point the story has changed like three times like like at first it was like oh man lovers coral and then it was a family spat and now he ran away with the business like I think there is there is no consistency good okay I was promised a Dutch letter but here the bakeries are great in this side of that so during all of this who would be the one paying most attention what's going on inside the bar that'd be flip is my yeah I think I'm the only one who can okay so flip you notice that Leah has gone to sit with the brass girl numbers what happens next or does this argument continue for a while I think it goes by assault allows it to go he's just sitting there just holding his face like okay so I don't think that we're welcome here I think it's time for us to leave leave and I think he even like leave what right and at some point salt you would also notice that Leah is now sitting at the table with the two breast gold members right all right so I think like he notices any like fine fine Geraldine yes I ran out for the business but you would have ran it into the ground if you're gonna be like this I'm there's no talking to you and I think come on nephew and we walk back outside maybe I wish my parents were still alive oh me too haha that's dramatically oh my god poses as family or uncle yes we did because we're trying to break into like the harbor master back in the text well I thought you were my dad in that one I think so yeah I was trying to there was two times one time is when you guys were getting stuff from a bakery and another time was the hard one time you were an uncle another time you were a father I don't know which is which classic memories right good times eventually salt leaves the bar Joe and a riot still sitting at the table I'm sure what to do they're afraid of angering Hera Hera you turn out and finally realize that Leah is sitting at the table with the breast gold members they're discussing something cool I think that Hera is immediately furious Leah and doesn't know what to do like whether to I mean she basically has to leave her alone because otherwise like what if she I don't know did she turn or did you not so I think Hera just kind of like makes a big show of going over to her bartender friend and like throwing some money at him and then dramatically leaving the bar out the way that she came okay so you pay for your drinks pay off your tab you make it very loud like I'm leaving you make it big you know half about okay cool and then hopefully it's what it's like directly outside of the over hearing this or how far do you guys go during all this like something you said I don't leave and then you go like a foot and then you're staying outside the door do you guys have so the way I'm kind of envisioning this is like kind of a ramshackle old western saloon so there's like windows okay yep so I imagine we're not super far away like you know like let's say Joe and her I have the table they're at is by the window so you know saw kind of peaks and by where they were the window next to their table to kind of see if he can read lips of what's going to show Joe Joe notices you and he like does he wave he oh that's he 100 does he wave why did that do 38 he like raises hand away from the realizes that he's on it as we know to shoot that like yeah there's a moment I will know what no one's thought but you and him and he saw you and then he like low he likes slowly lower his hand like it only get raised like maybe like three inches but you knew what was happening you gave him a look but that when he realized you wave I will break that hand off I swear yeah so yeah the group of your hang around this window Hera eventually leaves the bar leaving Joe Araya and Leah in the bar by themselves and you can see what they get up to and you can see inside the bar but it's not like the windows are open so you can't really hear what's going on so I'm trying to see if I can read lips okay of what's going on for some reason I guess first off do you have a specific talent for that is gonna be a role because I would be to a challenge I if you have a talent there may be like a limiting talent but if you don't have it be I'd be perception I don't have that talent okay I think it'd be a perception thing definitely yeah I think I would benefit from let's read height awareness because I started wonder with our previous conversations without being used correctly you know that one gives you blue down you so you're doing perception checks right though it feels like something you should get yourself though just the way I know it says allies but I feel like in that case you would get as well well there's the also the caveat short range adds one blue one blue two two it's me I think kind of is a leveling maybe one yeah I yeah I'm my good feeling is the way it's written is they don't design it to be for you but I like it for you but I think giving you one for yourself makes sense you're better helping others than you because you're kind of the spotter right it's helping them see I'll give you that all for that one alright you said on your in Jeff yep I'm good so to be three purple and then a black is you like looking through window and you feel like it's debris in the way and it's not a great thing because you're looking specifically at join a riot looking at Leah Leah yeah okay all right Roland I don't know what happened so that is a blue dice two green dice a yellow dice a black dice and three purple dice getting nothing no advantage no success no failure is it nothing so that is technically failure okay so I think you can't go shit the windows too dark I think he's gonna try to mouth something to you right like eavesdrop okay so you so close I think I mean Joe was the one that like raised his hand at you and he's like the one more noticing you if that's you want to show doesn't do lip reading you got a charade good charades so it's like waving it you know and I can see Joe looking at me it's like alright keep it low two words points at his points at his mouth I think there's a moment man I really want to make a joke and have him do like you know the like movie symbol but this is that would not happen in this world but he understands like okay he gives your thumbs up and then turns to like look in the direction I think he turned prematurely cuz I was so leopard and then I'm gonna point a riot like no Joe you fucking moron shit I think at this moment Leah or hair out how do you know I'm doing it hair out hair out hair out kind of comes around the corner from the opposite side she kind of like left the opposite direction and is now circled back I think she's leaning against the building kind of just out of sight of the window with her collar pulled up and she just kind of leans against the building casually it's like it occurs to me now that maybe we should have given her some false information to see if she was gonna turn trader huh I mean hindsight's always 2020 do I get to kill her probably not well we'll see how this goes I guess we're taking best now huh kind of how did she goes out I thought once you were disavowed that was it yeah well I mean I guess there's levels of that if they take her out back and shoot her you know lower level problem solved itself and if not I'll give her a burn notice terrible kid go do something helpful please I literally nothing for me to do I only shoot guns now there there there such a gentle naive kid once upon a time till we got here I made a gun he did for yeah for some reason I get the image of you know flip just like tightening his extend office ready to punch Leah in the back of the head again I'm repressing a lot right now it's the Arthur mean it's what it is so this conversation is going on while things are going on in the bar I think salt can probably get an eye on things but if you if three people to their heads in the window would be very obvious so it's mostly just all that's seeing this but what you can see is Joan Araya sitting at their table Joe is how subtle is Joe me role for him he's actually pretty subtle he's doing pretty good he's like drinking his drink and when he like drinks for the drink he's like looking over you know he's not just airing he's just like he's being pretty subtle you know it's you know yeah and he's doing a good job and then Leah Leah is sitting at the table she is discussing things with the grass guild numbers and there's a few times where she gets real close and like they're whispering to each other so they you know they're mostly talking about it moments it's getting there like in hush words leaning in close saying some stuff and then they stop and they look around at one point does Leah see you just do it to you 100 17 she does in fact see you in the window and she gives you a look that you've gotten many times from here she just like her eyes go a little bit like wide and like glery stares at you and then she goes back to it's a very brief if you weren't paying attention you would have completely missed it but she she stared you down for a split second and this conversation is how long are you gonna hang outside the bar before like are you waiting for them to leave their table I think we're waiting because I think our next move has to be that we follow them or we try and tail them however they separate off so I think we're just kind of waiting so sometimes goes by I would say probably 15 20 minutes goes by they're having their conversation while also drinking the drinks you know they don't want to be too obvious or whatever is going on so you know Leah eventually the three of them eventually finish off their drinks and go to stand up when they do that again I'm gonna roll for Joan right to see how subtle they are they also stand you guys want to be behind over here because it'd be not very subtle they just get up at the same time 52 so I think Araya starts to like get up and Joe puts his hand like on his like shoulder something like she's head like no no no so Joe's Joe's doing pretty good right now Joe's just keeping things nice and subtle bless Araya yeah right is yeah so Leah and the brass girls members get up and then they go to a like back part of the bar where there may be something but they escape your site so there's like a door back there you don't know if it's a kitchen or bathroom or what they disappear outside of your site so I think once they see some sort of like shit they're going further back into the bar one of us should probably go around I did manage to get myself into two very public fights in there so I feel like I should probably steer clear now you want to see if there's an exit door and keep eyes on that yeah I got that one I can slip into the back I'm pretty small I can fit into some small until like a small space or no one can see me can you two not fight work together to cover that back and I'll stumble into the front doubtful but we'll try it anyway I go to two sides of the building we can probably avoid each other well it's a big building just do what you feel is best just remember like you know lives on the line etc explosions right yeah so we should probably just not not do something right I mean I feel like something needs to be done all right you two get around the back I'll walk in and see if I can talk to tweedle in tweedle doofus on it okay so flip flop and hair up go around the building salt heads back inside the talk to us all okay right so I think is the building sorry so I kind of mentioned like a two-story you know bar on the main floor in a couple rooms upstairs you know classic fantasy you know but you know with steampunk windows and you know brass but yes it's a pretty standard bar and it's in a big city so it's not super wide it's probably you know like more tall and so wide because it's a city but it's not super tall you know they don't have these giant giant buildings because it's you know in the air things get heavy but yeah so the three view wander through the alleyway but before we do that salt heads inside that's right away you sit down at the table join Ryan well I think I make it my way over and you know a couple people looking at me just like can you believe that family am I right that's why you never go into business with family members it's just a headache you know and I think as it gets close he kind of goes you know so maybe the some of the guys are like put off with what continuing to look at him because he's very much not social distancing okay as he makes his way over so do you go do you like go to the bar and like extend this live before you sit down with your writers it more like I just a slow saunter to the bars you're like complaining to yourself but also to the audience that you know is kind of noticing you back in I think so or like he sits in the table next to him after you know he goes up to the bar he's doing the thing about his business with family what a stupid idea that was and didn't you know I have that boy look after because parents died bless them hopefully they rest easily but you know and he sits down I think you know a riot looks over like what should we do like tell you looking at and he just gives you like a very confused look like and then he looks to the back door and then looks at you looks the back door looks at you so and I think after a while I kind of saw it looks and it just kind of like shakes his head like yeah we need to get back there like yeah back there but don't be stupid you know just you know sneak casual yeah he nods and I think a riot gets up Joe starts to get up but then he realizes that two of them maybe a little bit too obvious so I think a riot goes by himself towards the back and like he's not going straight to it he'd like you know so it goes over the bar grabs a drink and then like saunter's over to that back door and he opens up the door and let's cut over to hair out flip and flop so the three of you get to the outside back of the bar and what you see back here it's very much like dirty alley there's you know a dumpster you know trash yeah it's very much you know this is where they take the trash out they bring in food supplies there's a fairly large door that you assume connects to like a back kitchen or a prep area and you get back there and you see you turn the corner and not long after you turn the corner you see the door getting pushed open very quickly and rapidly and Leah is there with a knife that you did not see her with earlier and she pushes out the door shortly behind her is two of the brass gill people and she turns looks at you and then she takes off in the direction oh son of a bitch and I think directly after that the brass gill numbers come out they turn to look at you and they back off with her but they like they raise their guns but then they're backing up quickly they don't say anything they just have their guns aimed in your direction and then they're backing up backing up what do you do this is all happening in like a couple of seconds Leah went in a full sprint but they're doing their like quick shuffle backwards with their pistols right they got pistols pistols out aimed in your direction what do you do we can't let her get away kid her yes yes I run towards Leah and towards the other guys yeah shut up do you run or do you mount flop because you got like your oh my god I'm out flop hell yeah yeah because you got a town to like jump on a real quick reaction yeah okay so yeah you jump on flop do you like yo like is it very classic like you know the cowboy on the horse except it's a kid on his robot dog no flip screams I'm gonna kill ya very very concerning in most situations probably okay so are you trying to just bash through the brass yol that you're trying to avoid them duck out of the way what's what's the plan here they've got pistols aimed in your direction so I would like to have flop leap up onto a wall and ride like run across its sideways in the confusion I would like to assist in this I would like to draw some attention towards myself so that because I imagine this happens in like a second so like hair I scream or yell at like get him and then while she's doing that she's kind of like she's got her hands kind of raised up a little bit like looking at the brass gill members like hey like look at me like let's let's talk about this and if I have to I would like to use my my feet or trait yeah let's uh let's roll initiative because there's a lot of things happening at once and that's part of the way to handle this so roll what is it either cool or vigilance roll vigilance because I don't think anyone is expecting this to happen no this was very much the worst case in very very much a surprise yep okay a welcome surprise but a surprise to the less and is vigilance what is vigilance based off of this surprise to be sure that it will it's will there it is will okay I'm not good at my frequal memes okay here's my and then for them they're actually decent vigilance which is surprising oh that's a three success that's unfortunate so uh the NPCs got three successes Hera got to flop or flip cut one um so it's gonna be NPC hero hero so you jump on flop as a free action that happens immediately but before anything else can occur they take some shots and I think but I would like to if I can prevent one of them from doing that I would like to because I believe my can't we talk about this can uh prevent at least one of them from attacking okay plus charm because if I can be like hey buddy can't we talk about this simple misunderstanding well at least maybe the other one sure yeah I'll let you just make a post charm or deception versus discipline yep and I would like to go ahead and use the hell out of where did I throw it uh was it charm or deception I can't listen yeah maybe charm or deception let's do charm charm okay and yeah what do you say in your you're trying you're not lying to them you can't be truthful hey hey hey buddy come on let's talk about this simple misunderstanding no need to get violent okay roll up no that was real bad wow you rolled two green of the yellow versus a single purple until failed let's go hera hera could not keep the the malice from her voice and uh that ended poorly um I was going to say they take shots at flip because he's the one that yelled I'm gonna kill you and jumped on his dog but for whatever reason to be our super yagro but hera just like for whatever it was she said pissed them off so they are taking shots at her loyalists I see flip as the devil's luck ducking behind a dumpster or whatever to hopefully maybe not get shot so range light to those um you can duck behind a dumpster I think on a future turn but that'd be like a maneuver to like take cover yep so yeah you'll be able to do that after this but they basically got the gun like they did they pulled out their guns and then were they're just fast just right at yeah face face range yeah that's gonna be cool so they take some shots at you it's not probably medium range at this point it's not quite short um because shorts you know like you could throw it yeah and they miss horribly and hit nope that's not what that said okay so that's one of them for the other one I would like to use my uh so my train so these guys are meaning they will act as a group so essentially they only one of them will make they only make one role but they get an upgraded dice because they're trained in using um these guns but yeah what is it you want to do they take a shot at hera they hit her but what do you do uh it was forgot to count it was um I guess I can't do that nevermind they don't have to disadvantage I can't use it ah yeah basically if they have rolled disadvantage then you'll be able to use it sorry I had so many counts which is why I did not buy another one yeah that in this game it's good to have active talents but it's also going to have passive ones because there's too many active ones who forget some of them but yeah the way you forgot to count happens after they shot they round ammo but in this case they did not round ammo they shot hera with their pistol um they both take shots one of them connects and hits you for six damage is the bullet um strikes you know like shoulder that's real bad so it's six now that's before you soak so it's probably like my second is two so yeah uh yeah it's like a nice dramatic like shoulder shot I think only one with armor is uh salt the one that's in the bar talking to people I have a cool I have a cool coat which I assume is uh I don't know leather is that a no actually I've talked about the coat before I think it's wool but uh yeah the coat uh aesthetically does some defense uh probably is very cool but unfortunately aesthetics do not stop bullets in social situations I think they do a cool like aesthetic shoulder shot like you would see like on a cop show like oh man you can totally tell him and recover from this later but like oh I get to like cling to my shoulder dramatically are we so that happens they take the shot they're like slowly backing up is the next because you guys can choose who goes next he went flip to jump on okay and yeah you're already on flop and then you're using flops a leg what is his what's he going to call it I don't remember what it's called and I'm uh his character she doesn't fill out I was a young um I know he can walk on on walls yeah he's got like metal he's got like metal armaments I'm sure I've got it somewhere um okay um okay so I set him up like I care for she apparently didn't anyway yeah I know that he's got that uh yeah he's got basically mechanical arms it lets him walk on walls so you jump on him and when you're climbing on walls do you just like cling to him how does it work when you're on him like full body kind of like clutches onto him okay it's like someone riding on fast motorcycle it's like you know you're like on it as a part of the thing but it's like running limbs around his yeah okay cool um I would like to modify it slightly so before I jump onto the wall I would like to punch one of these guys in the face okay a classic move so like as you're jumping off you want to do the punch yeah okay perfect because yeah essentially flop and flip both take the turns at the same time flop spends his turn to run you spend your turn to like you know take the shot of the guy basically give the order to flop do this and then your action will be to punch you punch give him the smacker yes so let me set up on my end you are good to go okay here comes the slapper that is a grit try him fit so yeah you just got the single success no advantage but you got the crit and that's what really matters uh that does eight damage okay and he is concussed which means uh can't take his next turn shouldn't shouldn't sleep tonight uh and then yeah uh I guess we'll just roll on the critical injury table could they be critically injured they're like mooks um love the one's muked by the way yeah yeah they can um so I've got a table for that I'll roll me a d-100 while I find the pop out yeah yeah yeah obviously it wasn't their commercial it's like we got a nap for that we got a table for that fadie 50 fadie oh man this table is very small uh headringer the target increases the difficulty of all intellect and cunning checks by one until this critical injury is healed and they're not known for their intellect so yeah they are this dude is a dumb dumb I made him do him there you can just kind of visualize it just a slow motion and just teeth flying everywhere and birds you can see like the fist and print embedded into his bone yeah what is it with you and punching brass gilled people in the head and giving them concussions of some form it's how many number raises and some people have you know catch punches don't don't kick shame it's how we sign his work it's just it's what it is okay and then here what do you have to uh so in a split second decision of pure dumbassery uh probably based on like blood loss related drama she is going to run at and tackle the first one with a knife in her hand to see if maybe she's the first one being the one that flipped punched or the other one uh the flip punched one no probably the other one the other one it's more sense okay really guys out for a second yeah okay so are you just trying to tackle them to the ground you're trying to like a knife them if i can get into grappling and knife distance we're gonna try a knife them okay um only yeah let's do an opposed athletics check um so i'm just gonna clear out my character shade roll me in athletics oh that's four grits though i no that's four success it's not four grits no i forgot what grits look like yeah that was a previous just so enthralled i was just really excited to be within stabbing range of somebody okay and then their uh brawn is too are they trained in athletics no so right second yeah i i don't think they can be said but let's let's check yeah no so you jump on this guy tackle him to the ground and then raise the knife to like his neck he is essentially pinned meanwhile uh salt you're in the bar you're sitting at the table a rya like opens the door to go into the back and then you hear gunfire what do you do well first a rya freaks out like he like you know makes a big thing he's like walking in the direction and then there's something gunshots uh he pulls out a gun but he's like looking kind of scared what is what are you and jodie i think jodie would stand up right damn what would be do i think it's it's one of those moments like let's go fuck heaven back there now i guess before just to kind of inform you what's going on what's everybody else in the bar doing so when the shots occur a number of people scream uh as you know gun fire is not fun obviously uh and then probably it's it's like 50-50 some people duck into the tables some people just run out the front door it's basically you know freeze of right you know do they run do they uh hide right so i think salt kind of gets up and goes oh shit they're running to the the console they're gonna bring it down in this place everybody go go go like he's trying to stir up the stampede to get as many people out as he can okay so you just like stand up and do the like you know swinging the arms in a big motion to get people right like like i'm oh i'm holding the door open like oh no go go oh no my sister she's back and she's got a gun i told you don't go into business with family look at the hell happen go oh i'll take care of it you know what the fuzz got down in this place bro roll me a uh leadership check i think makes the most sense here okay unless something else makes more sense to you all right are you ready yes um yeah i'm deciding if i want to give them i give people the nice because people are scared and you're just giving them help like get away so i think they're already kind of wanting to leave so yeah i'm giving you blue deck down yeah you're good all right here we go three successes cool even with the double purple uh dice of hell you still got a bunch of successes so yeah you you say that and as soon as that happens everyone that was like hiding underneath their tables just bolts they run they run they run probably the only people left in the bar is like the bartender is like ducked behind the bar you don't know what's going on but otherwise you know every all the patrons are just staying peeting out of here right um when you do that i'm gonna roll for a rya um 38 i think joe gets caught up in the uh in the thing and i grab by the car like not you tell me ask him back anywhere i was gonna say joe joe's actually holding pretty good a rya goes to like bail oh good like grab by the car like oh you yeah but yeah you grab him by the collar and like shimfor you probably like half false to the ground he's like oh oh i thought yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah i was trying to blend in i yeah that was it well good jones like keep your shit together then he pulls out his gun i think from behind the bar you hear someone yell um just just just get out of here what is going on just go get the go get the police and you don't hear it you don't see anyone you just hear the bartender like shouting from behind like hiding behind the you know so as yeah as uh things start to be like i'll go poke out the back we'll go get the police i promise and he got pops a shield out and uh i think you're the like the chunk as it like snaps out right when this occurs and i think you can kind of hear the like bartender knocks more glasses over like son of a bitch because he's got the shield pop scares him and i think uh oh yeah salt jesters for a join right like get behind me we're going through that door okay yeah the two of them like ready behind you it's very much like cap in america in the first in like cap america one where it's like him with the shield and you know them behind you with their you know weapons out ready to charge and we've been remembers cap to america one i i mean i'm so long ago i probably watched it like a year and a half ago wow i've watched all of them here yeah i've watched all of them before um the second one not infinity war and game that's yeah i lose my nerd grid yeah before i get my property watch all of them so it's not been that long for me for most people yes for the hard career it's not so long so uh yeah the three of you guys are heading out um you'll join after the next round combat so the next turn occurs um let me roll for leah to see when she goes in relation to you guys because now she's in this as well so um yeah she's gonna better be in this oh wait no yeah she'd be rolling the Jones here so one two three roll the dice of runny's yeah she goes first go okay she uh she got a lot of successes there so leah is just taking off running down alleyways at this point um and so yeah is leah's running are you i guess no because it's leah that npc's then the heroes so leah's running on the npc's turn the guards one of them is can cost the other one is like pinned to the ground by harris so i think what's gonna happen now is he's gonna try to free himself but he's gonna have to spend on his role because you've got him both pinned and night to his throat yeah he won't so he's gonna attempt but he's gonna have some difficulties so uh brawn of two so we'll do one two i'm gonna give him black dice because uh not good so there is that and then can you also roll me a athletic check or run yeah good question uh that's gonna be an actual check yeah she would the top of your skills boom wow okay so that is two success and a triumph because i know it's a little so you both got two successes but your other success is a triumph so you win that time um by the triumph so i guess what is the triumph it was a very close call but uh you're trying to feel like does it so what does the triumph look like as you know he's trying to free himself and you're keeping him pinned i grab a rock or like a piece of alley debris like they classically are known to have and i smash that motherfucker in the head okay and here's Jan with us yeah and he's unconscious or he should be if this goes on you're trying to knock him out knock him out knock him out okay yes that's not good for you yeah so yeah what i'm gonna say is he i'm just gonna give him um because he got the grit i'm gonna give him the concussive around so the next round he's unable to do anything okay so that is their turn now it is the hero's turn um hero going or is flip-knowing i think i got a catch up with leah okay do it very strict orders i got get her with my gun okay um so we're gonna it's meant to be prompting a sequence okay and i don't think genesis has rules for that so we're just gonna do essentially opposed um what skill probably just athletics trying to think what skill would make the most sense for this um athletics i think makes the most sense just like moving quickly um i i think that's the time yeah okay bra because my finger bra with the sidebar yeah okay so what i'm gonna say is right now since she had the lead on you um she is effectively three picks ahead um every success you get is going to put you probably two ticks closer because my gut feeling is a dog is after the person but she's sort of far ahead now okay so we're gonna do it's easy for you to catch up on her but she's got the lead so if she beats you she beats you right um but it's harder for her to go away um when we get to either zero or five it'll be either escape or catch something sense uh yes i think so so three checks to start two checks for flip one check for ria five or zero is in okay so for this first round um we're just gonna have us both roll athletics checks against each other okay um let me clear out the dice i might okay you're gonna go on your end okay i'm gonna spend a story point on this one two upgrade okay boom upgrade me daddy yep i did great i'm ready you're good to go okay that is a lot of advantage only one success i'm going to give her black dice okay at least two right that's a bunch well actually keeps you yeah let me spend a few seconds to come back and maybe she's like i'm just howling like i'm gonna kill you she can't do that um so you will do it for the next check but these are happening at the same time so you'll get the black guys on the next check that she does but since these things are current at the same time it's gonna like we're normally roll the exact same time but because roll 20 is finicky we can't do that but for the next check you will throw on two black guys and I believe that yep and then is he one blue for you yeah because there's five there two oh yep one blue four for the two black and one for the blue makes sense you're just like yelling you're both like pumping yourself up and freaking her out she is gonna roll her athletics check and i'm gonna give you one of those three points back and upgrade her dice coward i mean i want you guys to have some right points that's why don't try to rationalize this Jeff coward okay so she's got a brawn three one two three and roll wow so oh god she's got the exact same five and i think we just cancel all that out right like my advantage of her advantage cancel out yeah exactly yeah essentially yeah the advantage just cancel out so it is a net of you got one success so currently you are starting to catch up on her um we are currently um five or zero so yeah she you are now only like one success away you went from three down to one because flip is fast so the next check um actually so she's got an ability once procession um that performance um oh no once we're around our component this performs an action maneuver may spend one story point to form an action maneuver as an auditor and sndennel so i'm going to give you a story point back and she just goes in over to speed and she takes off a little longer so now you guys are up too so she's trying to get away give you a story point but she's you know for whatever reason she's just fast she's very um tricky and able to just get in out of places she's probably like ducks through an outcome a couple of stalls you guys are blasting through the streets knocking things down a guy with a cabbaged cart is knocked over yeah it happens this is a um current why is there a produce section yes you guys are blasting you guys are blasting through the streets things getting destroyed things are happening um but currently you guys are starting to catch up on her let's roll again and we're going to do the exact same thing let you roll first if you want um no dice because our advantages can get each other's right okay athletics here we go there we go two successes and four damage okay and then for her i think i'm gonna give you the first time i had to catch my dinner i'm gonna give you the last story point to upgrade her dice i feel like a more psychotic you start to get that should add some like fear black dice right like her turn yeah so even with the every other dice she only gets one success you get your two you've been rolling really well in this chase and eventually you do catch up to her you tackle her down to the ground um so i think we're gonna we're gonna cut it here as flip and flop catches leah salt and salt gang uh come out of the back of the bar and currently para is on top of a knocked out guy and another dude is like bleeding from you know the ear as he's got a dent in his skull flip flop and leah i know where to be seen stay tuned we'll figure out uh what happens about the short break so much blood yeah yeah in terms of tachyoka ball density how do you feel about tachyoka do you like double boba or do you just is one serving of boba enough for me personally it's more than enough you know double is a lot but sometimes it's just like if you're getting flavored pearls like if you're doing like a mango pearls then yeah fuck yeah double but yeah there's a there's a place downtown that uh like there's this honey oh yeah i love a good honey honey and coconut milk uh anyways yes you're saying the camera the camera pans up from arayas spilled vobiti uh devastating it uh it looks to the door in the back that um salt you know is pushing through the camera follows through and sees like follows them out like an action scene and realizes that there's not as much going on back here as he was expecting he was expecting to walk into war and in actuality there's just a bloody guy and a knocked out guy next to harrow and the others aren't to be seen very tarantino. harris probably also pretty bloody at this point she does have a keeping shoulder wound yeah yeah she's yeah she's very much like bleeding out the shoulder and probably bleeding on this guy because she like jumped on him and like just you know like blood everywhere bloodborne pathogens everywhere yeah so while there's not many people here it's very much a bloody messy scene see what he gets to do so you know salt takes all in and uh his first side is like no flip no yeah problem harrow which way did the the kid in the blind bitch go i don't know i was a little bit busy so uh i assumed that way and she kind of gestures like with the free hands that doesn't have a knife in the direction down the alley in the direction of somewhere else all right wait is this knife a knife that you normally have on you? yeah i think uh i haven't my notes that harrow always has a few so yeah i just pulled the knife out in a while ago this is like a safety like uh i want to say that wrist sheath knife okay something cool and badass not quite like sassen's creed but you know in that general direction yeah paranoid and suitably armed but not like you know over the top tasteful if you will a tasteful combat arguments the well bred possible domestic terrorist all right if he must enact islands make sure that you are tastefully armed obviously as a note the one that's standing uh does still have a gun he's bleeding heavily but he is still standing so you guys may not want to just fully ignore him yet uh what is people doing harrow you staying on the guard that you've knocked out yeah he's not moving so first thought is you're i a joke get down the other way see if you can find the kid and i turn my attention fully to mr like crack skull like with my shield up but you know i got the gun put away like all right i see our uh resident skull cracker has visited you he's probably like spinning a little bit he's like oh i'm seeing and he's just like making groaning noises like he's on death's door get punched in the head right just woke up and now you know there's you know captain america's like right in front of him you should uh we should question him uh before he passes out or gets his brains further knocked out or whatever because that's fair i'm guessing whatever lea has to say when we catch our mayor may not be different than what this motherfucker has to say right let's get them both up get them both bound and set them down and if they don't cooperate we're going to take a walk to the edge gentlemen okay so salt and hair are gathering these two brass guild members awrya and joe are running down the alleyway yep okay so i'm gonna have you guys roll roll me an athletics check i'm gonna give you blue deck as a group another blue die because they're very much fucked up at this point though the one that hair is on hasn't really been stabbed he's more just been knocked out but it's still like piss back to the said a bit heads nice you're gonna get a couple of two dice yeah um so i'll give you two blues as a check to see if we were yeah it's like how well you can keep them under wraps yeah um i can bet you for brawl oh yeah bro i'm gonna make sense yeah okay no reason i mean it's really athletics is more like raw power brawl is like whenever they act up you like smack you literally just punch them they're like assert dominance essentially but yeah if you want to be a bit more aggressive with them that makes perfect sense i want to do athletics also for no reason only one of you is gonna roll so i'm gonna roll so i'm gonna do a roll because like the idea is because one of you is helping the other right i'm uh i'm gonna roll brawl okay yep i'm good oh god oh i haven't seen that many little side guys hey tell me the secrets to everything that they know um with that many how many let's count them up so that would be five successes one of which is a crit goodness a triumph that's fine they're handy dandy so you guys and you're walking them to the edge of the city or you're just like beating them behind the trash can or behind a dumpster in the elip you know the the threat wasn't i think this is what helped for the success is salt is more than ready to hold them out at robot arms and if he gets tired he will let them fall into the ocean okay one at one at a time so that you know the one that doesn't drop to talks right because one of them's like clearly like your right like your mash potatoes up there i don't know what i can get out of you mr man over here that just has a slightly cut neck it can get something out of but i think you know with that threat in mind they're very cooperative not that one couldn't be anything but and uh they're just uh hmm i know we got them i got them up they're not screaming they're willingly tied one of them was like hey you seem like a cool guy can i'm doing um let's see i was looking for the table of how to spend the speed combat results uh no yep yep i don't know i feel like yeah we're just trying to get them into maybe a new alley so that they're slightly farther away than what they were right so they're subtle now yeah yeah so yeah you guys pull them um in a place where yeah things are subtle you've got control the situation you've like pushed them into place you at some point they try to like fight back and salt is having none of their bullshit and just essentially beats like you're not just beating the chair of them but you know you're man-hindling these guys and they know that if they do something wrong that you are going to drop them off they believe every word you say whether or not they believe it right um so they sort of like smell the beans you like want it like they're like in a rough shape and they go okay okay okay fine just stop just stop hitting me and i think he probably says that like as hair is like slapping one of them or something yeah obviously yeah and what what what we need to know we'll tell you don't drop us off the edge all right i'm gonna need a couple promises from you first number one you're gonna tell me everything i ask got it he just he knots number two once we're done number three what the fuck did that bitch leah say to you huh we do need that and if once we're done and i'm feeling generous you're gonna forget this happened which might be easier for your friend over there so you're talking to the non-concussive one correct yep okay they just every time you say one of your statements they just not along they don't say anything if there's nothing and i think once you come to a pause and there's like an understood pause they go at un-understood all right great leah first shut up salt no leah when she say go it and it's it's leo she i mean we we know who she is she's a ranking member in the and there's a pause a ranking member in the brass guild and we were helping her get get away get away from who and he looks nervously between the two of you i think her like flips her knife in that menacing menacing and yet cinematic way just casually well i think she was talking about you ma'am um first of all call me man again and i swear to god you're not even gonna have to wait for his arm to get tired second of all what makes you think she's a name she she said that she had difficulties on her last mission and that she was captured and that well she's a ranking officer and we're not so she needed her help meet the blood the sir that has failed on her missions i believe two to three times now yeah it's gonna suck when you realize finally that she totally just uh screwed you over so that she can get away what what yeah she's totally on the outside the brass guild like super outs so uh there goes your career right i i just over you oh well that's a shame so kill him let's go all right and he's like no no no no he raises his hands to like he's like freaking out like you know i said you guys have disarmed them right oh 100 percent okay so he just raises his hands to like block whatever they're going to do like he's freaked out the guy with the concussion is like at this point he's like starting to like his like not look straight and like his eyes are kind of going funky he looks like he's about to like pass out um into the street you have something to say mr hansy all i'm saying i'm i told you the truth she came she asked for help she's a ranking officer i don't know anything beyond that we're doing as we were told ken and he's looking over to his friend who's like at this point like falling into the side of the building and he's like essentially passed out bang aside on the wall um he's asleep with a concussion which even though it's not modern times they know it's bad right can you and he's like looking nervously at his you know friend co-worker what you know other relationships looking nervously at him right so i think taking the initiative salt reaches over and rips the uh braskill paned off of both of them well considering your career is now done don't you ever come back to a braskill thing ever again and gentlemen i have to tell you when it comes to authority fuck him live your own lives and i think he drops a couple credits uh onto the guy's lap take him to a doctor and i better not see your face again or i will drop both of you off the side myself okay roll me one last intimidation check or i think it's coercion in this um they have a presence of one oh it'll part of that be first of all okay um i'm good you are yep here we go look at all that disadvantage can i so you attempt like this coercion role obviously you've got control situation i'm gonna buy a story point you're gonna make that successful okay so yeah you spend a story point to buy some success um you've got some disadvantage um what's that disadvantage gonna do uh no maybe he gets too close and they really remember salt's got a certain funk to him i i think i think i know it is actually because you succeed but there's something bad happens to you from all that strain you take or all the disadvantage i think what happens is and i don't know how hair is gonna respond it's i think he spits in your face and it's fine i'll go and you take you take three points of stress all right i think tera is just kind of like leaning up against the building with that with her her uh face kind of propped in a hand and she just kind of waits for salt to get done with his uh his speech so um i'm i'm shocked that you didn't like stab the guy after spitting salt face i think she's just waiting well i i think the first thing is uh for the first thing she says to him is uh wow you're really getting soft in your old age well and i think you know he's taking this anti-wipes off his face he just looks at the guy three two and at that he like grabs his friend who's like at this point almost fully passed out and like shakes him a bit and he's like oh and like he like wakes up and it's one of those things where you wake up way too early and you're like kind of drunk but still basically that happens with this guy's like huh huh it's like we need to go we need to go let's go go pull like that out and i start loading it one yeah at this point he's just like he's running down the street um i'm gonna roll a dice no one is very very bad for the play wow i did not expect that um so i think what happens this is actually kind of perfect he runs down the street as he runs to get outside the alleyway he runs into a uh local ski guard um and then the guy with the concussion falls on the ground the guard looks at that looks down at the guy and then looks into the alleyway at you guys and sees well salt with a gun as these guys are running away good i did not expect a roll i won on idea 100 roll but that's the worst possible so uh yeah what do you do i think her i kind of like uh goes from her leading position to kind of like leading in the other direction to kind of like really poorly hide her gaping shoulder uh and like look really subtle right so then i think yeah we get we get a camera shot of like that shifting and the guard looks at salt and then let's cut over to flip flop and leah so flip you caught her what do you do oh no as a quick reminder to everyone flip has had a vengeance out for leah for a very long time since i believe she shot you with a grenade launcher in like episode two or three what are those chicken exploding toy chockeys oh yeah she's doing exploding chockeys yeah she threw a bomb at you she blew you up literally blew up my innocence you literally blew up your innocence yep you've been hunting her for a long time you that's why we put that but things seemed good she then betrayed you you caught her and now you're alone with her what do you do i'd like to break her arm okay jesus this is gonna go well that's how i want to start i mean we did warn her you but you cross this your fucked okay hopefully this all day can catch you before she's been really recharged extend office i would like to punch her uh right where the elbow joint is okay so you like basically what happens is when you actually catch her do this do you jump off of flop to pin her or does flop jump on her before this attack occurs like what how did they end up the last part oh god who should want to do the pinning flop should pinner that's so much better okay so flop jumps on her and pins her and then you step off man this got dark fast so flop pinned her he like he like does is like dog noise up at you asking what now you look you step off of him you like crank up your thing she looks up at you and so what do you i don't even make eye contact with her okay just swing down into her arm okay she's like what what are you just and then yeah you cut down into her arm um yeah uh let me roll an attack her i'm no she's pinned you one-yard check i'm just deciding how to do this um i feel like what this is gonna be it's not really opposed because she's pinned i'm just yeah she's pinned it's gonna be an athletics or a brawl check your call dealer's choice um okay is there a skill hold on let me check with the skills i think i think i'm gonna take over your care to shoot Monica for a second um but there's like a survival skill right your endurance resilience yeah resilience based on brawn is she trained in that um where is here is not here is i'm now doing it too god damn it yeah everyone's doing it um boom boom she is not trained in this this is gonna be a straight brawl check for her so basically what we're gonna do is you're going to roll an opposed um brawler brawn or athletics whatever makes sense for you versus her endurance check which is gonna be a straight brawn because she is not trained in endurance okay so it's not gonna be a weapon attack uh it's kind of up to you it's whatever makes sense to you it mechanically you're attacking her but you're not gonna you don't have to roll ahead basically it's just it's more it's more it's more about how much damage do you do for so much can she resist okay sure and i'm giving you a blue die from the pinning of actually a blue die because she's paying another blue die because the flop is helping you okay i'm good boom okay so you got three successes one of which is a crit and then i'm going to give you a story point as she's doing whatever she can to try to survive here and she's upgrading her dice and rolling three green which is not looking good for her no oh no oh that's very bad no so uh she got three advantage you got two successes and a crit so you have a net of she's got some advantage but you got the crit um the advantage i think i'm just going to whatever you do next you're gonna need a black dice okay um maybe it's her like cowering or like whatever it was like fuck she's up in the head a little bit not necessarily for long i'm not sure that'll be more for us to discuss afterwards but yeah at least in the immediate action you're gonna have a black guy's wonder happens next okay as if you're results but you do punch down on her arm and you said you punched like on with the arm next to the chest right oh the elbow okay so that's called a shoulder jack yeah i was i was trying to ask you if it was shoulder or elbow i'm not trying to dislocate her shoulder i'm trying to break her arm yeah okay so you punch her there and with three success is one of them being a crit you definitely break her arm um is there a broken arm injury probably it's not maimed i think it's crippled yeah one of the targets of limbs stuck by the james impaired until it's critically fueled it's really well checked required use that limb by one so basically yeah her arm is crippled okay um so she's gonna have a basically she gets a penalty whenever she tries to use that arm for anything until it's healed awesome okay uh and so kind of like pulling the fist uh back up is this her left or right arm uh i was going i was thinking this was so he was punching down with his right arm so he probably punched her in the left okay he's not really thinking about it yep yeah i yeah you're just kind of acting i just want to note it down because you've got controlled situation okay that's better uh now here's the thing well there's two things the first thing is that uh and real quick during all this she's just kind of like quietly whimpering as you've just broken her arm okay i don't want to make those noise because it's gonna be distracting to podcast but yeah she's during all of this like whimpering and crying and like she's in pain so the first the first thing is that hair i sort of likes you and i don't get that but i'm not gonna get in the way of it so she at least gets some input on what's gonna happen to you and thing the second we also should probably ask you some questions and i'm really bad at coming up with the questions so i got to take you back to everybody else so here's what's gonna happen and flip slowly like kind of rolls up his flesh sleeve on his arm and kind of stretches it okay i'm gonna put this in your mouth oh god i'm tired and i'm gonna put you on top of flop here and we're gonna go catch up with everybody else so real quick this flesh sleeve is an actual flesh or is it like a plastic that has been like a plastic okay yeah okay never use the phrase flesh sleeve ever again it looks like flesh it's not actual flesh that you've like come on it's just a like prosthetic that looks like an armpit cool it's like uh what the terminator has yeah now it's still like kind of gross and sweaty and looks like skin but it's not actual skin you're putting in a while it's it's a plastic it's gross it's gross not quite as gross as i think everyone when they hear them say i'm putting my flesh sleeve in your mouth no i think it's grosser dude i just like when he takes it off i hear the sound of like a wet t-shirt going off after a day at the pool yeah it's not supposed to be pleasant she's she's been awful to us oh yes yeah oh yeah and uh so i'm gonna put you on the flop and we're gonna catch up with everybody else do you like tie her down or you just like that's why i broke her arm i didn't have anything to tie her up okay so you're just making it so she can't be allergic i'm just trying to kind of like coerce her like going along with this okay how quick are you doing all of this are you in any sort of rush or you just like time trying to get her on the trying to get her on the flop as soon as possible i don't want to crowd to show up okay cool things i'm saying you're you're pushing things on quickly yeah and i would like to show her burta the new and important burta is that visually different now because i know you put bigger bullets in it it's got a bigger barrel on it too that's right bigger barrel to hold the bigger bolts okay so yeah you hold the bigger bolts you like pull it out to show it to her it's you just do that thing where you like i should show her you show okay i wasn't sure if you're trying to be subtle enough yeah you pull it out and okay she sees it and like she's like oh okay okay i understand try to get away and she like wins like and like there's one point when you're putting her on flop like it like turned her the arm wrong like spiked and she just like felt this jab of pain in her arm and she like okay okay okay yep yep all right let's go and i'm gonna walk alongside flop and kind of like transfer her okay so after she does that wins and like pain is that when you put the sleeve in her mouth to keep her from talking okay cool so yeah as that whole wincing occurs okay okay now i'm gonna put this in and yeah you just like metallic sweat fills her mouth yeah she's like she makes a face it's like but she can't see anything obviously you know if they come into putting a sock in their mouth that's like been worn by like a you know big dude for a week straight right my socks right yep so it's got like a motor oil okay yeah it is very much none appealing um so you guys quickly rush back to the bar meanwhile at the bar cops turn and look as the two brass gill members that have had their brass gill pin removed from their lapels run out of the alleyway trip fall pretty much into a guard and then they look at you salts and they just yell what what's going on here as you've got your pistol raised in the air i mean it's just al but i mean it's al but like these guys look like they were running for their lives and tripped it like they very much did the like the like sobbing at fall they're not like they're freaked out you know is that whole thing right right you know they run they run they trip they fall they fall on the cop the cop what's that you you know you're not you don't have to go and aim at them right but he can put two and two together right so i think uh and i think that uh the cop holds his rifle names at you what's going on and like he realizes that you got a weapon these guys are running they aim their rifles at you someone what happened to harrow about a minute ago two minutes ago it's about a rough fight yeah rough evening for the sultane and company very rough ten minutes right i think uh harrow at this point like it runs out towards them like oh thank goodness you you were here this man just saved me uh go in and and the bartender in there he can tell you everything he heard shots and these awful men were and she kind of like uh does a little expertly uh practiced like fainting move where she just stumbles a little bit like oh oh no uh and i was terribly injured uh it was a horrible accident when she kind of like trips over salt's feet and like kicks him a little bit like hey asshole come come help oh right right absolutely i oh terrible terrible uh thieves yes i responded as any good citizen of tide fall would and i think uh you know he holsters his gun and he quickly chucks the brass gill pins just who the hell knows around this alley just a long crowd on him so but you don't throw it in the direction of the guard you're just getting rid of them right yeah i just kind of like check it back behind him so two things occur uh you're gonna have to roll a deception check uh harrow because uh hell yeah totally right with her perception or charm and it's deception she's pretending to be a damsel in distress and that is not harrow in any shape or form i mean is that uh i mean is that ever sense yeah like this is yeah that's exactly what you're channeling so i'm gonna give you a blue die because salt is helping you um i'm gonna give you a black because of the situation everything that's going on because like things are happening and then this marines um i'll say this is cunning so we've got two purples okay i'm gonna mind whenever you're ready okay i think i have a backup too if this doesn't work so deception god damn it i still haven't added anything to deception i'm just doing it to coercion all right i loved the beginning of the campaign you never put anything into the coercion they just kept intimidating people now they're like middle-ling part of the campaign you're not according to people you're finally lying to people after you've obtrico origin of lunch now you stop coercing people and you're just lying to everyone it's great i love it's great i love it the archive how you fuck people's heads i think it's indicative of her just being slightly incompetent and everything and just having a complex about it um so i'm gonna make a social check and then i think i may have a backup if this doesn't work okay uh so i'll have to make this deception happen oh okay fuck it well all right that would be too success is an advantage so uh her is feeling extra pretty and damselfly that day i suppose uh and is extra motivated by the children wound uh the adrenaline is kicked in yeah which she like makes sure to like display fully like hey look at me motherfucker i'm the victim yeah so and she yeah basically she gets all the way to like basically faint uh into the the cop and where he has to like either catch her or uh put the gun down so okay um and i do feel like i mean cops would go off on the run i think there's probably two of them so one of them that's got the gun raised like keeps his gun but i think he like pulls it away and the other one like catches her as she's like in damsel and distressing this guy um and somehow this situation is diffused uh Prussian i've happened the dice happens next what happens next is great i was very curious flips that he was rushing back because he didn't want to cause a scene oh god you enter the scene and you see Hera being held by a royal marine like the royal guard but like not like a you know it's just a guard guard um holding Hera as she apparently has fainted in his arms almost uh salt's got his gun sort of in the air another marine another guard has his gun that's all but like out as the two rascaled members are like stumbling through the streets trying to leave but the guard's trying to get them to not leave like it's it's a whole thing there's a lot of stuff happening at once you turn the corner and see this as leah has got her arm broken on flop what is this just a farce we don't stop turning and we do a full 360 and head back into the alleyway okay so yeah it's just a full on like whoop and you turn around cool um and i'm trying to process Hera falling her sleep in a marine's arms i'm so sorry leah i thought there was something there and i you know things just don't work out sometimes and she just she like gurgles like she she tries to say something but she can't because her mouth is full of you know flesh sleep good point that's a really good point and i'm sorry about that that is a sentence mouthful of flesh sleep that's right i'll be here for you is that is that the episode title no it is not a veto power so you you don't even there long enough to really see what's going on you see this and you by the time you realize what's happening you're gone um somebody not gonna make it stealth check it's just you don't really know what's happening just leave immediately so cut back to the action the brass gun numbers are trying to leave one of the guards is trying to get them to save the other guard is trying to get information from you so this is like everyone's talking at once like we we just we need to go we're not making trouble here the guards like no no no what's calm things down other guards talking to you like okay sir what what happened it's just chaos what happens during all this what do you do so as is Hera are you like pretending to be fully asleep passed out in this guy's arms at this point no no i think she's just like playing up the uh oh thank you sir for saving us it was such a traumatic moment and she just kind of like it's like doing whatever she can to like keep his attention okay and this is towards the one that's talking to salt or the one that's trying to keep the brass gun numbers nearby uh talking to salt okay which one's holding me well the one that i'm guessing is talking to salt like it's a lot of things there's only two of them and there's actually three things happening she's like half holding you half trying to talk to salt well the other one is like trying to help the brass gun numbers up and trying to get them to stay when they're like no no we just need to go so a lot of things are happening at once right well sir i was in the bar and i heard shots being fired and when i came out of the back i saw that this one was on the ground with a shoulder wound and these gentlemen here and i stepped in and intervened i just realized that she went awry went down the alleyway looking for uh flip right um so i think at this point they come back somehow you went like they went down a different alleyway um flip so thank Joe they got they got lost on the way out there and their way back you see them heading in the direction of the marines they may not have noticed them do you try to interrupt do you think i think like salt see something like and i would hope that as dangerous as a street seems to be that nobody else comes down this way because clearly there are some nearedu wells walking around and anybody that comes this way in particular will be in danger okay i think that they hear that and they just sort of stop wherever they are flip you see this you see them like stop like down like another alleyway but they're like about to turn the corner into like the danger alley um they stop i say you stay red flip or do you circus and i love it yeah i think at this point i think flip might like just take flop up onto top of a building or something and just hang out real hot you just like climb up top of the building just to get away from him yeah he like makes eye contact with jonariah and just puts his fingers to his lips as he slowly clops the wall now so flop can climb up wall flop can do that but when you do that you like hang on tight to flop there is no way leah can hang on tight with a broken arm no hold on to flop hold on to leah okay so i'll be her hero so you like you like grab on you essentially grab onto flop he climbs up and then you also grab on to her i've got this kind of like yeah spider manning up like i do say i think i want you to roll a athletics check because this to like be strong enough to hold her in one arm while also holding on to the dog while he's climbing a vertical surface i think it's a bit difficult to do um so i'm having make an athletics check i also really want to quickly point out like flip is a nightmare demon child i mean yeah i mean he just gets more and more horrifying like i'm imagining that flip is like a creepy pasta right now that teenager is just like she's spread around at three in the morning yeah i mean pretty much i'll break your arm but then take care of you afterwards oh my god he's um here we go uh that's there's a crit in there so yeah you're good to go oh boy i think um the disadvantage you take a little bit stress um it's a little bit heavier than you expect yeah you get a little bit strain is like you're like clenching but yeah you're able to do this thing and to awry and joe you look in this looks incredible because like you like grab on to flop with one hand and like just like tense your muscles you grab onto her and you like hold her under under one arm she's like half moaning because she's still got a broken arm and you're now climbing up a vertical surface and like she's like in pain is she's not having a fun time but you're getting away from the situation and you look like a weird superhero anti-hero not quite sure but this is a feat of strength that you're doing and they see it you climb up on top of the roof you get away from everything it's not through with the bar it's just like i'm up in your right building you're removing the situation till you choose otherwise back to the encounter with everyone else so all this is talking um i'm going to your goal is to have them going to talk to the bar to get to get like corporate collaboration for your side of the story is that correct yep okay you rascal trying to yeah the brass gale is trying to convince them to leave so i'm going to have essentially you are going to do a persuasion or deception check versus their persuasion deception check um just to see who's more convincing hell yeah okay good news rolling blood i feel like this is a seltzerl now he's going to get a blue die from hair but that's what it feels like to be convinced i actually i'm gonna give it to you blue because you've done the performance and you're also helping talk right but it feels like this is mostly a seltzerl unless you would step in to take over i think this can be a tag team because i think i have a i think i have a backup that this goes wrong so i think kara i think kara is also like adding on to the the drama right and what's nice about deception is i have it's natural so i can reroll it if i don't like it if we roll like i dice you just do the rete characters i have a little note says natural reroll once you roll ones this once oh once there's no ones in this page no one there's not a detour any role but no that makes it okay cool yeah go for it um i got oh wait hold up uh yeah i'm gonna mind i'll set yep here we go oh god okay beautiful rules tonight so that was yeah you guys have been destroying that was three successes and four advantage versus they're they're they've got a presence of one they are not i mean they're they're quite they're like they look like gangbangers like they are they are clearly they're not like clearly pirates but like they are street thugs and they look like it they're not very persuasive uh they got one success you guys got three successes and four advantage and say net of two successes four advantage so yeah you've got control the situation i think that's a certain white hera cuts off the police and just says when my father hears about this and then that just ends it okay so i think that um the guards as they're starting to believe you they're not believing the brass girls members i think one of them pulls out um i said of shackles for both of them they say this is just until we can talk to the people in the bar there's too much going on right now i need to make sure this is secured they believe the two of you but they're still not like they're cautious of everyone but they're starting to believe the two of you right they shackle up the two guards and then they tie them to like pipes at the outside of the bar um because they just they can't handle everything that's going on i tie them to the pipes in the bar and then they take the two of you inside and i think that's where we take a quick break before our final part stay tuned so it happens the bar uh we'll be back shortly my father hears about this dang drop tapioca still trying to sort that out in between takes so tapioca starts is actually an important part of presenting cuisine the more we talk about this the more i find out that it's not just something that is in the pudding first it'll first it'll first it'll last thing last thing last thing i mean yeah it is good for digestion i think oh well is it fact you're we're making up right now this is not a medical podcast right do not take much of what we say but if you start eating a bunch of tapioca pudding and your poops get real good just saying pay me uh okay so uh chis jeff save this i'll be honest when you guys would do that i want to go grab me a tip like my water because uh i feel like you're right now so i use it to my advantage but the the camera cuts up once again from the spilled boba tea in the bar but this time it opens up on the door being opened from the outside as essentially i think two guards come in followed shortly behind by salt and hera what do you guys do are you letting the guards sort of take over you trying to like leave the conversation or what's the play here dude i don't know i'm like five steps ahead of where i thought we would be so right i think uh hera is just kind of stumbling in like oh yes thank you officers again and yep here's the here's the bar where uh we were in uh yes uh did i mention my father i think she's very quickly running out of things to talk about yeah so i think at this the bartender like stands up from behind the bar and he's got a shotgun uh expecting more firefights happening he gets that and then he like as soon as he sees the cop he immediately raises it he's like oh i'm sorry officer right and uh he obviously goes oh it's okay sir uh can you and he like looks around and sees he like looks around the room and sees the like knocked over chairs this bill drinks including spilled boba tea um also it's like yeah there's a this room very clearly looks like there was panic here not that long ago because especially once salt was like swinging the windmill arms he never want to fuck out everyone booked it right so the room is empty but clearly something happened in here uh sir can you tell me what happened um i'm getting conflicting reports from people outside and the bartender like looks at the group of you i'm trying to remember salt did you buy something from the bar or did you just i think i just went over and uh you know because i'm doing the whole story like uh don't go into business with family you know and i think you're gonna over be like hey i need apple juice okay so if you extra money don't make it a thing come on gotcha so yeah he remembers you apple juice being the universal code for don't make it a thing right it's apple juice yes i know it's a bar shut up i know you have it oh yeah that's definitely the thing that people get if they want to be out of bar and they want to look like the drink but not actually drink apple juice is it really i've heard a number of people that you like i was i was really the tonic it's normally they have like a sultur like a little minute and then you're like oh man um refreshing anyway i like boba tea the the bartender like looks at you looks at the guards and says well sir um there's a a commotion well between any points of the two of you between these two an argument happened they left and weird enough like five minutes later ten minutes later um some these people pushed into my kitchen and my uh my chef back there said that this lady grabbed a knife and threatened them they freaked out let her do her thing and uh they went out the back and we heard jotts and everyone ran um and he like looks around the bar i what does it eat of me i need to clean this as everything starts to sink into this place is just wrecked the guard looks back to him looks to the two of you looks back to him and i would like one of you to make one final like persuasion check to do like a final convincing of this guy i'm gonna give you a blue dye from the um bartender uh corroborating your story because essentially he said bad guys went through here shots happened they stole a knife threatened my people so you need a blue dye um but yeah one final check it can be the one because this point it's things have sort of calmed down you're gonna do more control persuasion persuasion deception it kind of depends on who you saying what um let's see uh i'm like a harris is pulling up the damsel distress it'd be deception but it's we're trying to convince like no they're the bad guys we're all good it'd be like persuasion so it kind of depends on what you're saying what you're doing uh salt do you have any thoughts because i can uh i'm kind of let's see i don't know the skating tirade would be any good yeah same i have an extra charm i could try and do like a charming oh it's been such a great night but thank you officers for your dillard jensen dedication the law am i right because i've got one rank interception with natural uh yeah go for it yeah that's like that yeah for all three steps i got set of mind ready yep okay thank you for success with couple of advantage i think he goes on like yeah you know i weird the shots too i made sure everybody got out of the bar the bartender was hiding i told him i would go take care of it and i did and when you say that he like not you know he's like whatever you you know he's like karabere and he's like kept that that's what happened it this one he's uh it's good people the cop looks at you gives you a nod just gives a really like a noctrously too big grin so the the guards head outside with a group of you i think before you guys were even finishing outside i think the bartender's already started going around the room he's pulled on a mop to like clean up the drinks so he's started cleaning up this place i'm grumbling to himself about like you know he probably doesn't even say the word braskill he probably just says like ruffians you know who like he just sort of like talks about how you this uh yeah i'm inside in that it's more just like it's like he doesn't like how the city has turned to be more gang related basically because the braskill was stepped in not everyone knows that it's braskill they just know that it's more violent nowadays but that he's blaming it on that grumbling himself you guys head outside guards sort of like give you a nod like well i believe you these two ruffians they uh they started something so i go about go about your business we'll uh we'll take care of them from here now i think i just saw it looks at him just like you know i roughed him up real bad you know as a result take care of them they're just stupid kids that's all i think they're kind of clutches at her shoulder like officers i appreciate you and everything that you do but if you don't mind i would really like to see see to this wound and get some medical care please excuse me i have to leave when you do that they point like there's a hospital if you go down go down that alley two blocks that way to the left there's no medical care again i am absolutely heading straight there for sure okay and then she just like they uh do i think we just like head off that direction like okay yep so you're doing that way yeah so if you would see sort of all this they head inside the bar they leave the two grasco numbers outside um five minutes or so goes by they come out the guards are looking you know not apologize but they're looking friendly towards your friends and then they um rough but not quite so rough because salt tried to you know tell them to be easy on them they kind of roughly take the grasco numbers away so the two groups go in two different directions what do you do to go and gather itself gang and go meet up with the others i see first i do have a question for leah okay yeah this can happen like while they're inside the bar yeah i figure this is happening because it takes a couple of all this yeah yeah they're there for comments yeah we'll flash back yeah what in the bar do you ask her what so i've been trying to get this question answered by a few people and i keep getting the run around so while i have you here as a bit of a captive audience why do people kiss oh let me just oh no hold on well that's a little okay there we go literally the popping noise this kid is hard the way i figure it you and i are even an arm for an so oh shit i guess that's true okay okay and she's like at this point like sort of clutching her broken arm like holding it to her to like try to help with it you're asking what okay i know i hit you in the head sometime ago so i'll say it a little slower this time so why do people with their mouths kiss each other it it's a form of affection i this is really weird kid i'm just gonna say it affection yeah like a hug or a handshake yeah it's a really really intense hug i'm intense hug yeah it's not really the time i've got nothing better to do i mean i get that but this arm oh oh for Pete's sake i'll uh i can take a second to put a splint and bandage it up okay uh yeah roll me up a medicine check uh let's see flip i'm just like getting like the DC versus Mortal Kombat sound like heroic brutality god that game existed it sure did uh okay i've got my medicine check and i get two blues for my two ranks in surgeon two blues there you go edit in cool here we go there it is it was bound to happen i don't know that you were really properly motivated and uh the dice and stuff so for the audience at home it was a pretty easy check and he still failed it but got a lot of advantage so what's the advantage to you still felt you did not properly bandage her wounds but something good happened uh i would like to further my relationship with leah or learn her fear what do you want to hear some you do not yet i don't know Monica's correct she is you are the biggest her biggest fear of all like she's afraid of the you know the group of you i don't know if i feel like they have a name i can't think what the name is for your group is yeah but like i say effectively they can see his terrorists right but right now what they're really what she's really afraid of is you you have hunted her down time after time so yeah she's afraid of you and now you're just asking about kissing like jesus cool you're a monster i'll just try again we kept time okay you're just gonna continue okay um what i'm gonna say just because my repeated tests get kind of weird i'm gonna update a little bit um because you already talked about having like changed situation oh shit i'll let you do it it's just it is gonna be slightly separate okay i could probably make it it's gotta work this time right and you're just stabbing at her broken arm like so crunch does this feel better um damn okay that was weird that time uh you rolled three successes one of which was a crit and then three threat um i think the threat is going to be um you hmm oh perfect you learn that she's afraid of you what is your fear she learns it so you never really start talking to her and that comes out absolutely i'll just pull up my little character she i'm pretty sure it's failure yep okay so uh type fault and uh just you know things going wrong at it being my fault okay so and you don't come out and say like i'm afraid of failure but it's one of those things where you're just sort of talking out loud while you're fixing her up it's like oh so you're afraid of me well you know i'm afraid of like like it's just sort of like it's sort of awkward but yeah she learns that you were afraid of failure yeah so like uh back with the children of antisexidentally made a flesh zombie uh tried to kill us uh you know the only other revenue i know died fun stuff yeah the word flesh if we could maybe never use that again we're meeting our quota in this episode cool okay so we learned about each other this is fun yeah so yeah um some time passes you heal her up um you learn about her she learns about you it's it's kind of one time conversation um she's not adding a whole lot to it but like a little bit here and there um but yeah you eventually learn these things five but as though pass and then eventually the guards and the rest come out of the bar after you you know had your conversation oh that happens next oh that's us all right um are you good to hold on to flick on your own i i mean i i can try this arm and she raises her right arm this one's still pretty good so i'll uh and she like hooks her arm around like sort of like around like an arm and like his like you know chest like upper like that whole area she's like i'll i'll give it a shot i may need to hold this and like she like sort of like moves her left shoulder like you may need to hold this in case like well i can't hold on with this arm um still a bit weak okay yeah so i'll i'll hop on and support her without being the sole support for her so that should make it a bit easier yep okay you guys are going down you don't really i don't think you can check because you're going down she's helping a bit more you're kind of working together she's still afraid of you as you know now um but you're kind of working together in this awkward sense and did you bothered by it if too clear yeah no did you as we get the visual of you climbing down this did you re uh dagger no okay did you put the flesh sleeve back on or did you just like put it up yeah i no i got to wait for it to dry off it's kind of scovered it or uh oh god fo me saliva yeah i'm out that's gross sorry this has been a weird episode folks sure has so happens when we switch to thursday nights yeah note for the future yeah one's work a long day and they get fucking loopy at the end of the night okay so you guys absolutely like the lesson that don't put children into adventures because this is what it looks like yeah we turn into slender man jesus yeah they yeah my my games typically go a little bit dark and when we had a kid kid i was like oh maybe i'll be nice and happy this time no no i was hoping it's just a different kind of dark so uh salt and um hera eventually you see flip climbing down a building not the bar but like another building nearby like one does yeah climbing down the building with leah like attached to flop and you see that she's got a splint on her left arm and her shirt uh that she's wearing is like ripped up on the arm and is like soaked in blood so i think you know salt looks at it'd be like no you cut her that's what happens when you run away i warned you all right then i think i just point yeah jona riah come up as well they see that you guys have gathered and they want to you know join in on the fun right all right let's get back to where we're staying let's get a plan put together leah you have some explaining to do yep yep i uh she like looks down to her arm i the kid uh the kid explained that very much though that i don't need to talk yep then i warned you on that ship i think here i comes in and just kind of like uh pat's uh flop on the head and just kind of take stands on the other side and is like okay well glad we had that talk and everyone at this point has noticed that uh leah has a broken arm yeah so i think you guys gonna ignore that for now and i don't think she knows quite what to do what about it because it's like oh yeah i don't she sent the little the kid with a grudge after so she's like she probably didn't expect her to like you know come back completely unscathed but it's like what's happening honestly it's a miracle she came back at all right it's just like and i'm pretty sure yeah that thought is there right that's definitely insults my like well restraint i'll take it also in this period of like trying to get along more and like get through the next week and not call uh flip out on his bullshit quite as much as she has in the past but i think in her head it's definitely like let's put a pin in this conversation more pins put some put some more pins in there and then uh talk to salt about it later and be like are we raising slash adopting uh a violent uh a moral uh child murderer but like no uh murderer describing the child not the other way around and is this conversation happening on the way back or at the back at the bar that was her inner monologue that's his inner model okay okay her outer model log is just to kind of like look from the arm to salt and then just kind of stare for a second and then say nothing she's just gonna make a face it's gonna be a very significant face and then she's gonna just pat flop on the head and keep walking probably and i think at this point to uh defray uh any tension she's gonna start bitching about her fucking arm hurting and just be like oh god damn the the pain that i go through is somebody get me a goddamn whiskey or something because i have a fucking piece of metal in my arm oh i was wondering if that bullet did some damage it's good to know that uh it did not yeah so that's gonna be the topic of discussion okay so you guys head back to um your hotel like you guys aren't actually wanted to the place are you going to go uh no i didn't think so i don't think so so i don't double check medical facilities are for people who don't commit war crimes yeah just yeah so you guys head back to the bar slash to tell slash home base you guys have your rooms if i remember what you guys have a room for planning room for you guys in room for salt gang where do you guys go because leah wasn't with salt gang but you may or may not want to trust her anymore so what's the plan unfortunately i think leah has uh extended the full amount of trust that she's gonna get uh i think harrah head straight to her chest of stuff uh stuff and is looking for some medical supplies okay oh and also once she gets there she like sees that like you know things have been moved around uh and then she remembers that uh salt used a specific name earlier in the bar and i think she sees her suitcase and she's like the fuck wait did you not know my name i i knew the short version if you want to make this a thing and announce it to everybody be my guess it's not like a fucking hit it it's just embarrassing okay i'm gonna roll a d2 real quick i need to know which one is all gang know if your full name um a one will be uh joe so it's just so it is so it's a joe goes you didn't know her name was helding you knew joe her name is what helding she always has to carry her bags it says seems like a bit this kid is kind of tension yeah you can murder this shit out of how many people you can't fucking read it remind me to fix that at some point i mean i think you want to teach me how to read i literally don't i literally can't think of this single thing i would rather do less oh well then don't say you're gonna fix it yeah sure enough it would be useless you'll learn not to lie so joe comes up to flip and says well if you ever want to know her full name it's harrelding elizabeth o'neil the third no okay she's just here i feel like that's a lot just wow thanks for your approval that's a family name by the way and i think she's kind of like slimmed it shut well i think the little family thing is a rather runder of what's not forget she left to go on her own way like like that's what that's what this group does we go our own way despite what anybody would want us to oh okay so and this is joe asking harre so when you're yelling at us and you want us to respect you do we call you harrelding i think she just she stops like i think she's kind of busying herself like setting up like medical supplies and just kind of being angry and grumbling and i think she just stops and she listens to him or miss o'neil miss the third i think i need everybody to shut the fuck up for a second please thank you i think that joe just turns around and goes to a table and pretends to start working on something that's good joe that was good i know here come here i got i got some stuff she put into work but too no she'll she won't she'll hate it more if i don't do anything right okay okay i don't look into get out of trouble yeah he continues to work on something but you know it's pretty obvious to anyone that looks that he's not really doing anything but it's like you know if you're working you know a really basic little job and you just want to look like you're busy but you're not actually doing anything he's doing exactly that it's a valuable skill isn't it? learning in the brass kilt it's a perfected art i'm sure in the brass kilt lower range so you guys are in your rooms cleaning cleaning up cleaning up her doing the things what's happening she has kind of heavy control the scene we need to figure out if we're gonna keep lea around or if we're gonna jump her off the nearest side of the ship i don't think that's kind of our top concern because as of right now we have learned absolutely nothing except for that lea's a traitor but we knew that before so that doesn't count lea has sat up she was like sitting on a bed or a couch or something she likes to have like excuse me what shut up lea nobody nobody cares you try to run you're not told you're not to and she just like closes her eyes and just like makes a face of frustration but she doesn't say anything she's just it's frustrated but then she's shut up you could have been part of the family if you're gonna pipe up it better be with something useful anyways the adults are talking now i'm an adult no you're not point is we learned nothing we're a day behind our presumed deadline for everything blowing up ourselves included and now when those two idiot low-level peons or whatever get out of jl which i'm assuming they will in the next 24 hours they're gonna announce to their bosses potentially that lea's here and or that we are here so net gain uh not looking great for the end of tonight do you think someone's gonna get them out of prison i'm sure i don't know i'm sure somebody will get them out of their call their moms or their girlfriends or boyfriends or something well answer me this how egregious is it to remove your pin i mean it's not unheard of sometimes you get a lie but even in the lowest ranks if they show up without them what do they have pins end up anyway i threw them in the alleyway i mean with uh marine or the constable to find that on us considering there's a treaty enacted that those guys shouldn't be any way near tight fall yeah i mean that's that's one thing to consider but i mean the one thing i'll say that you guys would notice is normally they shouldn't be around here but you've noticed more of them today than what we don't want to get tight fall right right like clearly either the marines control the city's going down or there's just too many grasco members arriving or like it's weird to see as many of you seen so while it is cautious to have those things on you especially the little big engagement right then being around is not wouldn't be a giant surprise because it's been happening more and more lately i don't think we can rule anything out as far as them i mean maybe they shut up and maybe they stay in jail and maybe they're not a factor but assuming the worst which it doesn't want to do with those our fucking luck uh and we need to assume we're made and that we're basically on the braskill shit list i think i think i think here is right and i think it's only a matter of time before some big and in the braskill want to talk to those guys and i also think that that's our prime opportunity so during while um flippus talking leah raises her uh right hand we have shut up no one cares i didn't say anything i just raised a hand what you've been on our shit list for weeks well right the bigger shit list the shittier list the list of shit that you know you throw people who've already fucked with you and are now continuing to fuck with you despite better sense obviously leah come on right leah leah looks like one right leah looks to salt and she just says can she say five words without cursing no you get used to it unbelievable and then i think she just like lays back down on the couch just like turns to like try to rip because at this point it's late at night was that's like a bar pretty far in the evening for them and like they honestly no you know what i i am going to be the mature reasonable person here because you know i could say so much here but i'm not actually because i feel like i've grown significantly as a person and if you want to fucking drag our dirdle you know what no i'm not going to talk about our dirty laundry because you know what there's no hour to the laundry to be said i and she just stands up and like puts her like uh fist down on the table and immediately regrets it because of the one shoulder leah leah grabs a pillow and puts it over her head unbelievable just like you not to listen because guess what listening never one of your strong skills and then like she just like grabs the like uh what's left of her stuff and kind of shoves it into like the the medicine bag and throws it over like in the corner where her bags have kind of taken over and she just kind of like slams her opposite fist down on the table for dramatic emphasis and then just says you know what i'm gonna go get a drink and then just walks out okay yeah thanks alternately thank you two are made for each other is that before after uh after she walked out okay after after she's okay so it's everyone but here in the room at this one because it's all thanks all of her did you get sent them off to the room oh everybody's here so you guys are in like the the middle room where it's like the planning room essentially okay what just happened well sometimes when two people love each other very much they get in uh they get into fights you know kind of like other fights that all of us have you know i think hara's here storms back into the room and like grabs uh something like grabs her i think her arms are pistol like she rummy just around for a second uh and like grabs her pistol uh just kind of silently shoves it into like what's left of her coat uh and just like glares at everybody for a second and it's like jesus christ it was like three weeks it barely meant anything give it a rest and then she walks out jesus wants to line it i think she hates you more than i do yeah oh well and you named me i think it joe and riah at this point quietly back up to the door to their room and leave they went to remove themselves from the situation unless someone said something to stop them joe riah i i i yep yes sir good work today and i thank you and they go to do the brass guild salute then they realize wait no no it's a certain word then they revert and do the tidefall uh salute soggying salute yep dab we go to bad fucking christ ted i knew that you made a s- uh there's another game uh okay i'm not gonna get into it but they dab okay oh jesus yeah they they go and pass out so currently the only people in this room is lea attempting to uh flip flop and salt do you guys try to question lea before the end of the night or yeah i've got a question i think okay because i'm i can't get my head off of it um lea so like those moves that you try to con into sacrificing themselves basically to say if you're you're sorry i'll be nice um yourself uh they're gonna get questioned by somebody big right they're gonna they're gonna have to deliver some information about you and us to somebody so they were arrested typically what happens when brass guild is arrested depending on the town is you say as little as possible and one of two things happen either the brass guild helps you out and you'll get a friend will come convince people to get you out of prison or you just kind of wait it out and if you wait it out you're rewarded for it if you talk but not brass guild people don't really do that so if someone wants to help them out they'll get out and they'll talk someone doesn't want to help them out they may be in there for a couple of weeks and well a couple of weeks from now according to the plan this place is going well and she's quite right right right what are the chances you think the government actually knows about this i mean they now have two brass guild members and there are confines and if no one comes to save them they know what's happening in a little over a week so they're not gonna sit in prison for a week i'll tell you that there i wouldn't i wouldn't sit knowing what's coming yeah so either somebody's gonna pick them up or they're gonna go into business for themselves so i would just not i would expect somebody to pick them up or somebody to come clean up she she sits up in the couch and like she sort of like wins this like she like move like you know sort of like bumps this point so like kind of like shifts her elbow bit she wins this it's like yep i uh you're probably right there kid um someone's gonna find out whether it's brass guild or whether it's the government someone's gonna find out about well everything i think we gotta stake the prison i think you might be right i don't have any other leads and i think this is this could bear some some fruit i think it could too i also have a favorite call in with an old friend of mine man having old friends must be nice oh it is but this guy and i you know you know how old friends may go but major rasmus sin is uh last i knew high up in the uh tide folly and military if that's the frittemoa to use it's kind of now uh flip just has a thousand yard stare don't worry i'm waxing poetic but i thought that looks great cool it might be worth having a conversation with him see if he's aware okay well um i think the clock's taking so uh i'm and i'm gonna fish through like our supplies and i'm gonna look for those uh communicators those wacky takis so plan i think um one of them i might wait to the prison real quick joe had one of them when he was on the ship did he bring it back i think he did i don't know double check you guys remember the top you had i think he did i think i would think he did too yeah well thanks yeah he was like real bad it was more he was captured by the crew and but then you guys like niggoshete get him back um so i think if you're in that negotiation i would have gotten the uh the wacky talkies well i'll take my show i would have been a conversation but you guys were trying to be emicool towards the you know the children right like you were trying to help heal he'll he'll maximize like it was it was a conflict point but yeah you guys would have done you would have gotten that back for sure okay i think i yeah i'm gonna try and find my way to the to the prison and stick that out okay let you guys know once movement happens you want to take one of the other two of you yeah i can bring a ryan all right okay you head into the other room and a ryan a ryan's the one that butts in the air right when he sleeps no that was joe joe that was okay so you go in the you go in the other room and joe is already um face down ass up asleep in his bed can't bring him he's asleep all right and i think i think a ryan is probably like he got up he's probably got a book that he's like reading on his bed you want to do a stake out with me i mean i'm real tired but he looks over to joe yeah why not and he like sits up grabs his pistol and like puts it in his holster we'll get a coffee on the way yeah he nods i had like half a year earlier but things happened what is boba it's one of life's great mysteries huh yeah let's go okay um is there anything uh monocad you want to do downstairs with harrah before we end tonight's session because we're kind of getting to a wrap up but if there's something you want to do nope i like you friend this scene uh harrah is down at the bar she is not actually drinking to excess uh like maybe you're like you've got a beer but you're not drinking to drink you drinking a beer she's she's got a beer and she's just kind of staring off into the middle distance sipping at a beer for the next three hours that's the scene okay so yeah i think uh with a camera sort of follows um flip ice and flop as well right flip flop and a ryan as they leave down you head through the bar does a moment where you guys glance over to see harrah you see that um harrah will also do you notice them leaving or do you just focus on your beer uh nope i don't think she knows this i don't want to have this conversation let's just okay you guys quickly like you see her and you quickly like sort of duck your head down like i don't you know dip out of the bar and i think you know when you go to leave the bar you go outside the camera stays behind the doors shut and that's the end of the episode we will follow find out what happens next time um okay i'll stay tuned next month uh we will uh once again it's always still to go off on his own and then it either goes very good or very bad but yeah we'll find out next month it's what happens yep that could go either way at least this time you're not going off on your own into a mansion by yourself without telling anyone right so there's that but yeah stay tuned over to our character growth in a good way or a bad way i've grown it can be both right it's very much both yeah so good guys bye bye
