Speaker 2: Yeah, detective, yes, I still have it. Under no circumstances
should anyone like you be poking around with it? What's
going on?
Speaker 3: I remember me about that weed story that some sort
of ascension.
Speaker 2: What do you mean?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think guy's met him. But it's crazy, right,
it happened so long ago?
Speaker 2: Well you and I both, No, the time isn't linear.
I'll do some more poking around and don't.
Speaker 3: Get back to him. Yeah, okay, thanks Paramore. It's probably nothing,
but it seldom. Yeah, it's supposedly.
Speaker 2: Come on now, detective, you've always had a good head
on your shoulders. Appreciate it while you got it.
Speaker 4: What bye?
Speaker 5: Bye?
Speaker 3: Okay, bye, I guess.
Speaker 6: I'm sorry. What did you call us? Kingmakers.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's in his fucking book, all right. Listen. I
was able to make a called that he's got the book.
So I don't know if Phil, I don't know if
you'll give it to me, but it's maybe got some
answers you might want. At the very least, I think
y'all are in there, fucking wild God, you heard anything
about this?
Speaker 6: Oh, we have our kings.
Speaker 7: This is the first thing you've even heard about this world.
So anything from me is a need to us too, O.
Speaker 3: Man, Kingmakers, I mean you are kings that do you
make kings? Do you do? Your dad don't? I don't
even know.
Speaker 8: Mm hmm.
Speaker 9: There are kings where we come from.
Speaker 3: Yeah, technically there's some. I'm still here, but it's not really.
It's more of a title than anything else.
Speaker 7: Your friend, the one with the book, do you know? Yeah,
he'll be arriving with it. If that's all I hear.
Speaker 3: I don't know. He didn't even say he was. I
just asked if he still had it. Ah, that doesn't
mean he's a This is the porn of man so
I was telling me about. Uh, I don't know. I
don't know. I never was able to figure this one out.
He filled me in on a lot of shit, but
he's kind of always doing his own thing.
Speaker 10: Who else nurse? Just this corna mensa.
Speaker 3: And his dog. God, I don't even know what to
call that relationship.
Speaker 10: Wait, it's like a dog talk.
Speaker 3: Or sometimes it's fucking weird. No, no, not really. His
downed I think, is what he said. But her name
is and that's all I got. She honestly didn't talk much.
She mostly just kind of growled occasionally at me.
Speaker 8: Right, are you sure this time?
Speaker 7: You used.
Speaker 8: Kingmaker?
Speaker 3: As sure as I am alive? Yeah?
Speaker 8: What does that mean to you? Exactly?
Speaker 3: I don't know it was it was a story about ascension.
I don't I wasn't really thinking about it. It's just
the fucking ramblings of a crazy man who would loop
seven hundred and thirty four times or something like. You
don't really take a lot of seriousness when it comes
to that. His mind was correct.
Speaker 6: What do you mean?
Speaker 9: Ascension?
Speaker 3: That's what I mean. I don't know. It was a
story about these kingmakers fuck descending, going somewhere, becoming something more.
Speaker 10: Wait, how many king makers? What names?
Speaker 3: The names that the the aliases you just gave?
Speaker 10: That's what fucking including brigand soul binder and like.
Speaker 3: The six names funck which one have me?
Speaker 10: Or be king makers? If you were supposed to be kings,
surely we would be the king makers and you would
be the kings.
Speaker 8: I look to the company in front of me, and
each one individually, and I say, none of this rings
rings a bell with you?
Speaker 4: Or none in the slightest No, Tim, do you know
where this porno mancer resides now?
Speaker 5: And relativity to where we are?
Speaker 3: No idea. I was surprised he answered the phone on
this I last time I met him? But was I
think it was here in New York, But that was
three three years ago. Three years ago Christmas was meeting
a family. But I've traveled around, He traveled around. That
was it?
Speaker 7: God?
Speaker 5: And this book? Have you ever seen it before?
Speaker 3: Well yeah, I mean no, not before, not before showed me.
But but you have seen it? Well yeah, yeah, I
saw it. That's what end it was up. I pointed
to that did this no longer wizard guy? His name
was not in there. The rest of you, every single
one of those aliases you chose together, all of your
names were his was not.
Speaker 10: That?
Speaker 3: But I did. I got to hold this book. It
felt bad. I'll tell you that much.
Speaker 6: Right.
Speaker 4: Well, I would suggest maybe a hair brained idea. But Vega,
you could try to take his memory and conjure the
book rather than we speculate on its contents.
Speaker 6: You do that shit before me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I held the book, I've seen it. I went
through it with or through the entire thing I did.
That's why I kind of glazed over this part because
a lot of it was really honestly ramblings. It just
it was that that man was not okay.
Speaker 10: It may be depending on his memory.
Speaker 3: Right, I wouldn't imagine it's a limit detective. I got
great memory, all right, except for the parts that I forget.
Speaker 10: So human beings a fallible memory. You can overwrite it
without even realizing you're over writing it. See what you
want to see?
Speaker 3: Just so very reassuring. The one that wants to pour
into my memories, thank you, which.
Speaker 8: Is why something here doesn't I ring true to me,
Evoker gun Blade a moment, if you will, I apologize everybody.
I need to speak to you.
Speaker 6: My wars is possible, of course.
Speaker 7: I think.
Speaker 8: I think we stepped to a side room, a bedroom
perhaps or something.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 8: But kingmaker, I know it's not the exact term. That
doesn't ring a bell to you, either of you. I
know I wasn't the best at history. I would like
for both of you to rule whatever it is that
you keep your memory in either mind or magic.
Speaker 10: Seven success.
Speaker 9: Forty seven partial success.
Speaker 8: Okay, in which case I think I jog your memory
or you know that as far as how a kingdom
has existed, kings aren't born into the role on Din
At Dint there is what some may think, and artifact
others of room goes by the name mo Era. It
is there that the worthy go after the period of
one succession, maybe the end of an era, maybe the
end of a lineage, decide who is the new king
who is worthy to rule over Din? And my brother
just died, didn't Had the castle not besieged, we would
have gone there too, didn't. That never happened. So we
cut back now to the present and we're talking. See
why m h God, it's been.
Speaker 10: So long since I even considered duty to den in
that way. But you're right, you're right.
Speaker 8: If so, good, go on. I need to hear from you.
Speaker 10: Both of you, king makers. Plural interests me right, not people. Well,
an object is the king maker. The people help bring
the king to the king maker.
Speaker 9: Right, Perhaps the king makers is a sum of parts
that brings the king to the point in which he
becomes one.
Speaker 8: But in none of the scripture anywhere, because there ever
mention of multiple, No, then warrior is one. It is infallible.
That is it is that to be six, to be named,
to be people. It makes no sense.
Speaker 10: Unless this. It just doesn't exist to us yet, because
we don't understand it the way we see it, the
way we are observing it is not the way that
it can be observed right now. It's not the way
that we understand it now.
Speaker 9: Right You know how the idea, the ideas that are
here exist in a different form than they did, and
then they still exist, but they don't belong to us.
They belong here. Perhaps it's the same idea, it's just
been shaped and molded in different places.
Speaker 8: Perhaps we've splashed this way and that into elements of
time and all that. I just can't help but think
that maybe perhaps there's something that we're missing. But I
had to pull you to away. The two I trust
them most because when when that term was brought up,
I didn't see an ounce of recollection anywhere. So in
my heart I'm just a bit more satisfied than I
am still among those.
Speaker 6: I know.
Speaker 9: Maybe mentioned time being different.
Speaker 8: Right, I mean, could it be, you know what the
mage did and all that.
Speaker 9: Yeah, could it be that we took the concept of
kingmakers in Din and applied it to an object, to
an item we thought it was one when it was
always meant to be multiple. It's a fairy that we
interpreted Pieza or Google.
Speaker 10: It might beat it. We have to create it to
get ourselves here, to begin with a Perhaps the kingmaker
is something that we made and put back there in
order to bring us to this point right here.
Speaker 8: Maybe that's a possibility.
Speaker 11: Sure, as she says that, my skin just rolls in
goose flesh all over.
Speaker 10: I look outside the window. There's a large window. We're
quite high up at this point in this building, and
I just watch out where it's flying past. It's an
overcast day. It's not to consider.
Speaker 8: Indeed, you know, I didn't even think it was strange,
or that there wasn't a possibility that this place too
had its own didn't had its own leader, had its
own structure, the same but different.
Speaker 6: But but no, it's.
Speaker 10: Without maybe it doesn't mean anything as well. Perhaps, but
what if we've gone back, I mean, we've created things
to bring connections to ourselves, to make us feel more
at home with what we are having to face now,
planted things back in time to help us feel connected.
Speaker 8: Planted things. You know, it's tim it's infantile grasp of magic.
What if what if we're meant to be here?
Speaker 10: At this point I reach into Actually I don't because
I don't have my bag. But at this point I'm
thinking about the little carved hummingbird that Vega left in
the kitchen, all those I want to I was.
Speaker 1: Sitting here thinking, Man, if this movie she would just
reach and grab and touch it. Holy shit, so good.
Speaker 8: We are the kingmakers of this plane.
Speaker 10: But what if what if it matters? What if none
of that has ever really mattered? What if that was
just every single world? Look at all the people outside
going about their day, and really, what does any of
that matter? When looking at what we're having to do now?
Can we think about with the tasks I.
Speaker 8: Heard ever since we entered the Lucky Rabbit, and my
eyes were open to the fact that I'm not the
only leader You're not the only Vega, She's not the
only Jew. This isn't the only world. Nothing has mattered
to me apart from you two. That's all that matters.
Speaker 10: I wanted to ask you, how are you doing? Becaus
ow it has been your identity for your entire life,
knowing that you were supposed to be the one for
the throne, and to be trying to end at this
place to have that I don't want to say taken
from you, because it hasn't been taken because in a
world possibly somewhere out there, that that is what happens,
that's exactly what happens. That's who you are. But right
now I want to make sure that you're okay well
on this.
Speaker 8: I appreciate it, and you it's true.
Speaker 6: I mean.
Speaker 8: I've had inklings, doubts, and even though.
Speaker 6: I may not know or.
Speaker 8: May not have known where I'm from, I've always known
where I belong. Nothing has changed.
Speaker 10: I reach out and take his hand and then take
you it's hand.
Speaker 9: On the other, I'm reach oke and take his other
hand with my other, and we make a circle.
Speaker 8: Together always.
Speaker 1: Before we switch scenes. Could the three of you roll
for me?
Speaker 10: Please?
Speaker 1: And I want you to roll something in your soul,
some sort of connection you have with each other, if
you have a skill that does that in soul, Yeah,
in your heart, not magic.
Speaker 9: Any shift.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can have max shift because it's the three of.
Speaker 10: You or success.
Speaker 9: Let's shift partial success, max shift.
Speaker 1: So twenty. Oh my god, So Vega rolled a four,
Jude a thirty with a partial and lear a seventy seven,
which is it's a failure, and doubles with that fails. Sorry,
partial success. You're right, doubles. Okay, Wow, holy shit, that
skill is you boosted the heck out of that. Okay,
I just see a seventy seven and assume that means
a failure. But no, not now.
Speaker 8: You guys are leveled up, not failure.
Speaker 1: I think, and this is insane, but I think now's
the time to do it. I think in this moment,
you all know without words that none of you are
from the same version of reality as when you started.
And I think I'm just gonna let you play that
out right now. I'm not gonna say anything else.
Speaker 8: Even now, in this place, I don't feel like I'm
from here, but again, it's never mattered. I think I'm
going to with their hands both in mind. I'm just
going to grip a tiny bit more firmly, just for
a second.
Speaker 10: Do you remember I can't remember who said it, but
do you remember the reason Lear ended up the way
he did, the I have no language, less juvenile than
a bad leader. He ended up that way because he
didn't have a jude in a vega. I think it
doesn't matter, it doesn't matter where we come from. Are
always I'm going to be drawn to each other.
Speaker 8: I wouldn't have it any other way.
Speaker 9: It's good to know, in all universes, in all worlds,
I'm still bossing you around the lair.
Speaker 8: Always, you know.
Speaker 10: Okay, there's this concept of soulmates, right and somewhere out
there is your soulmate, And what if that's just the
same No matter what across any plane, you're always going
to be connected to somebody, and every single plane the
same people are connected in the same way, but they're
just different people.
Speaker 8: Well, if that's the case, I'm glad to have known
mine for as long as I have. And it's true,
you know.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I feel fortunate, but it can signs me. The
era for his name wasn't listed as a king maker.
Speaker 6: Hmm.
Speaker 8: Could that have anything to do with the fact that
he is without magic.
Speaker 10: Now a glance out of the window again, I mean
that his purpose.
Speaker 8: Is different, or maybe perhaps his purpose is the same
the path he takes.
Speaker 6: It's just different.
Speaker 8: He's always been different.
Speaker 9: He has a title. It's his own, it always has been.
I'm sure.
Speaker 10: He's the only one of us with the title for
the longest time.
Speaker 6: I suppose you're right.
Speaker 10: I sit back and look deep in thought for a
few moments.
Speaker 8: I'd like to think that we all let go at
the exact same time, almost as if he knew. And
after a few moments to allow a Vega time to
look out the window and going to take a step
back towards the door and say, I'll catch you guys
back inside. I think we've left them thinking a bit
too long now, you know, need to keep them in
the dark.
Speaker 9: Layer before you go. Yes, Bega, when was the last
time you looked in a mirror?
Speaker 10: I don't think you've talked to Emerson's getting here since
before that. I know what I look like, but only
from this perspective, looking down like constors.
Speaker 9: Yeah, well we can go to the bathroom, but your
scars they're different.
Speaker 8: I never saying for cheeks.
Speaker 10: Now I take a look at the mirror and Leyer's conjured.
Speaker 8: It's as if it's a temporary shimmering light that just
seems to go static for a second, like a perfect mirror.
We never asked. I suppose I didn't because I don't know.
I felt that maybe perhaps it was out of my business.
You know, you came back and you had been training
with this mage, and I mean, que he's done to you.
Speaker 9: But it seems to have been getting worse since we
got here.
Speaker 10: Right, I don't. It started as just tiny. It's back
on my cheek. The first time he started training. We
he was trying to help me. We're cool. We we
went back. It was an illusion, but it was an illusion.
He didn't want it to be an illusion.
Speaker 9: It had to be real.
Speaker 10: And we tried and tried and tired, and over time
it kept getting deeper and I tried to heal it,
but nothing I did fixed it. I don't I don't
know what's doing it. I know that whatever we're doing,
whatever we have been doing.
Speaker 1: Isn't.
Speaker 10: Helping it.
Speaker 8: And what did we do? How can we?
Speaker 10: I mean, I've never been the best thing you love.
Maybe you could try it's never been my strong suit.
Speaker 8: I stepped closer to it. Examine a scar, listeners. I
think maybe perhaps it might be best if Vega describes
the scar.
Speaker 10: I began as a fairly simple scar going down her
right hand eye, and over time it is slowly deepened
and moved all the way down her neck and to
the point where there is now one developing almost a
mirror on the other eye. It's sort of deep, would
like an iridescence in nature. It doesn't look like a
regular battle wound, of which she also has many, but
is mostly covered up.
Speaker 8: It's no physical scar. I believe that's plain enough to
tell something else courses through it. I could attempt. I
just pray I don't make anything worse. I pull down
my left sleeve. As I do, you see a tattoo
that looks like the sword I've had throughout most of
this journey. I'll put my hand my right hand parallel
with my left elbow in this way, and I draw
the sword out as a shimmer of light as I do,
and after a second it materializes in my hand.
Speaker 10: It's a bit heavier, but that's cool as all the.
Speaker 8: Well. I suppose so, and okay ow to do this.
I'm going to hold the sword in my right hand
with the blade pointed up towards the ceiling. I'm going
to put my left palm on the blade, the flat
of the blade, and then I'm going to place that
on vegas right cheek.
Speaker 9: And sorry, I'm going to step up and I'm going
to put my hands on your shoulders as you do
this as well.
Speaker 8: I was going to ask you, you see, soulmate, and
I'm going to try.
Speaker 6: Do power shift.
Speaker 10: It is important how you do this.
Speaker 8: I am going to attempt to. I'm not one for
the manipulation of time. That's nothing I've ever done before.
Everything I've done with healing is either one of two things.
Either it is healing magic the acceleration and I guess
you could call it some sort of time based magic
where things get pushed forwards. Or I use the sword,
or I suppose nowadays, anything with a dense enough magical
property and I just take from it, take it and
put it somewhere else to be put somewhere else to
be transferred later kind of You know, we used to
call that debt magic. I don't necessarily think it's debt,
but it is a weight that has to be rebalanced eventually.
And as I feel the warmth of Judes, I guess
June or Jude, why not both? On my shoulders. That
warmth travels from my shoulders down and I feel like
course to my heart and almost as if like you know,
with the pulse of you know, your heart beating like
one of those pulses. All of a sudden, it's like
a shock of extricty that goes towards the blade, bigger
the blade I think to use. It doesn't get hot,
in fact, it's cold, icy, and let's see what happens.
It's a partial success. It's not enough to feel what's
happened to you, but you can describe to me what
a partial success of this nature would be. As some
element of this gets drawn into the blade, what happens
to the blade?
Speaker 10: E blade? Sort of it shimmers with the similar iridescence
to the scars, and it warms up a little bit,
nothing uncomfortable, but just slightly warmed. Touch. There is the
same iridescent glow that sort of begins to cover the
three of us, sort of reaches out as if seeking
for wounds, molding over each person, seeking looking and you
see it just wash over Vegas's face, over these root like,
branch like scars, and nothing happens. There is a slight
intensity to the shimmer, it increases in intensity, and then
the shimmer rushes over. Well, then look in the mirror
once again.
Speaker 9: It means a good try.
Speaker 8: Do you feel any different?
Speaker 10: No, But it's not like it ever. Really, it's not
like it ever caused me pain or grief. It's not
like it ever. Maybe it isn't a wound.
Speaker 8: Maybe whether or not we've stayed it spread. I guess
only time will tell. Maybe it's beyond me, beyond us,
but it was worth trying. We can try again.
Speaker 6: What now?
Speaker 10: Right, Yeah, don't worry.
Speaker 2: About it.
Speaker 10: At this point, anything anything like this that I'm seeing,
I'm starting to realize. It just means there's more, there's
more future, there's more to understand. And that gives me
this strange, mess up sense of hope because I know
that there's This isn't the end of the journey, and
there is so much to go, so much to discover.
Speaker 8: And I thought that scar is going to spread, you know,
just know that.
Speaker 9: Maybe it's a road.
Speaker 6: Maybe it's a road, Maybe it's a river, maybe it's
a river.
Speaker 8: Whether it's a scar, a river, or a road, just
know that we're here to bear it for you to
to walk that road.
Speaker 10: Maybe it's just a symbol of forging your own river
down the mountain, same way are for you tried to
teach this magic. I don't know it could mean anything
anything literally, but I'm going.
Speaker 8: To take my right hand and I'm going to put
my hand on the side.
Speaker 6: Of her head with my thumb. I'm going to just
trace down the scar.
Speaker 8: And just say maybe.
Speaker 6: And motion towards the door again.
Speaker 10: Yeah, take a cheap breath, give their hands one last squeeze,
and then walk out with them.
Speaker 1: All right, before you enter in, we're gonna switch to
the other I'm crying. I'm sorry. We're gonna switch the
other group. Meanwhile, while this was.
Speaker 5: Happening, Yeah, I was pretty shocked by it too.
Speaker 4: But there's raz and then there's this farm boy, and
I might.
Speaker 5: Have said something in his head that set them off
a little bit.
Speaker 6: And I don't know.
Speaker 5: Something about seeing this.
Speaker 6: Mammoth of a.
Speaker 5: Person fighting a farm boy. I always look back at
it with fondness.
Speaker 3: Tim So, yeah, it'd be so cool to see where
y'all from. God Damn, that sounds way more interesting than Frankly, Yes,
I mean this is cool, don't get me wrong. And
meet y'all here. God, but that and I could medieval
ages sword fighting and ship farm boys attack and god,
that's just cool. Sorry, that's just cool.
Speaker 7: The fight with the farm boy was fun. It was a.
Speaker 3: Tournament, even better to tournaments.
Speaker 7: God, yeah, I wouldn't say it's very fun.
Speaker 3: Now, well, you know, you know, it could be fun
and maybe after things settled down. I don't know, you could.
I could get you know, I head back, I figure
out my things, I give you a call. I could
bring you to this place called medieval times. It is.
It is so cool. I don't know how real it is, admittedly,
but like people get on nights, get on horses, they joust,
they have food with not a real queen a king,
but they're there. It's it's basically like cast place at costumes. Costumes. Uh,
but it's pretty cool. Good food too.
Speaker 7: I'm more than happy once this is all over and
done with to visit this. Medieval Times sounds great.
Speaker 3: I'm here for it.
Speaker 7: We're able to anyway. I do hope to be home after.
Speaker 3: This, right there.
Speaker 12: Would make more sense here, perhaps we can help them
point out all the fallacies and their representations, right.
Speaker 3: I mean, they may not believe you if you're like,
we know this. You know, we're totally from a place
that Dad has this sort of thing, and that's inaccurate.
They might think you are a little.
Speaker 7: But you know, yes, yes, I don't see why not.
But are you going to be accompanying us when we
do actually well head into whatever this is head on?
Although the Rangers are coming for us regardless of what
we do.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they definitely are gonna do that. I mean
I was here for Frankly, just kind of figuring out
what the hell happened and wanted to learn from you.
I wasn't expecting Frankly to. I mean, you've kind of
got your you kind of got your cool little technique
group here, and I'm just some some weirdo that you know,
happens to be from this whole plane of existence kind
of thing. But hmmm, I mean.
Speaker 7: It would have been far more useful if we had
the porno manca no offense.
Speaker 3: You really, I mean, ah, I'm not so sure on that. Admittedly,
it seems more kind of more of a solo art
is well. No with his hound. I guess that again.
I don't. Some of his films were pretty solo. I'll
admit I had to look him up ahead of time.
Not really into that sort of thing, but hey, teach
their realm anyway. Yeah, so I'm going to say probably not.
He probably wouldn't, but hey, I can always get years
in full something later.
Speaker 6: That might be helpful. As you said, did you want
to go home?
Speaker 7: Well, yes, when all this is over, I'd hope we'd
all go home. May I ask why, Well, that's where
we belong, and I'd like to well, without the responsibility
of being king. I lost that a while ago. I'd
just like to grow old with old of you. I
definitely linger on a roof. Let's say that.
Speaker 4: And if home isn't there anymore.
Speaker 7: Is there a reason why it would not be?
Speaker 6: I can think of a few.
Speaker 3: Sorry, continue to continue.
Speaker 7: I'm thinking, if for whatever reason home is not there
to return to, I suppose I find a home here.
We can find a home here. I would rather not
that be the case.
Speaker 3: Yep, I know I keep going back to it. So
I apologize there, But the rabbit, the lucky rabbit, I'm now,
I honestly can't remember some of my apologies there, and
it's kind of reinforcing their whole year memory. Not as
good as yours, magic, not as good as yours. That bullshit,
It's fine, can't I swore that told me that the
the Rabbit could bring you where you needed to go.
Speaker 7: Yes, that's how we ended up here, apparently, If that's true,
we needed to come here.
Speaker 3: Okay, But then, but I guess that would be the
way to get back then, right, Yes.
Speaker 7: Yes, and I'm hoping that works. But again, that's something
we need to discuss and plan for later. I think
right now, we just need to what we doing next.
With the possibility of getting our hands on this book
and the inevitability of the Rangers coming for us, what
do we do?
Speaker 3: Run?
Speaker 7: Right, I'm not one to run.
Speaker 3: Then you're not a good strategist. Sorry. If the odds
are against you, why die?
Speaker 7: Being on the run forever isn't quite living?
Speaker 3: Is it not saying that? Regroup?
Speaker 7: Learn, observe, observe who.
Speaker 3: Do you know how they function at all?
Speaker 7: We won't until we see them function.
Speaker 3: Correct right and take a clear way to get out.
Speaker 7: I I don't believe we're in a position to fire
them just yet. I'm not saying that we are. But
if we're going to try to witness and observe what
they can do, we still need a plan for that.
Actual they don't immediately.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they from what I remember, they can basically be
where they need to be. That's kind of their thing.
Speaker 7: Okay, So.
Speaker 3: Basically keep your head on a swivel at all times,
because I don't know how much you can prepare. I
will say they're human, I at least in theory, the
the one that was running with their professor God, the
sad One. That's how we always referred to them in
the book.
Speaker 7: Sad One. Yeah, not particularly helpful, but no, no, them
being human is useful at the very least. They have
the typical human weaknesses.
Speaker 3: Yeah, magic though, a lot of a lot of magic.
Speaker 7: Yes, I imagine. So Australia, what do you think?
Speaker 12: I don't know what I think, if I'm being honest
with you. I was asleep for a lot of this,
and then I woke up to an assault of information.
I've been hearing the terminology pornomancer. I have no idea
what that means.
Speaker 7: Yes, I'm not entirely sure either. It's apparently how our
friend Tim here realized we entered this space, this world.
Speaker 3: Sorry, a bad date. Yeah, your magic's kind of tweaked
in a line. Always name by the way, it's sad.
Speaker 12: Okay, I do think we need to take a look
and see what it is. These uh rangers you call them.
Speaker 1: We're all that's nine roll. I've been waiting, waiting, wait, wait.
Speaker 9: What am I rolling?
Speaker 10: Baby?
Speaker 1: Anything that you can use to defend yourself, So either
like mentally or magically, I will let you decide whichever
one is stronger.
Speaker 12: Hmm, well, I think my observe doesn't count in this instance.
It would have to be intuition because I don't have
any like mental defense.
Speaker 13: I don't think okay, thirty seven partial.
Speaker 1: I'll let you rpe it out. But something just I
don't know how you would know this, but you do.
Something is probing your brain. They're looking for your location,
but they have a They've like latched onto you and
now they're looking and it is immediately after you say ranger.
Speaker 10: You would notice my face entirely. Just drop.
Speaker 7: What happened?
Speaker 3: I'd say something. My breath bad, I can take something,
I can take a mind good.
Speaker 14: It feels like something Okay, I just felt like something,
something's found me.
Speaker 7: Okay, I am going to try to make some kind
of buffer or feel to cut off like I did
before with the name's going to try to do something
similar again with this room, to see if I can
cut off that connection.
Speaker 1: Well, I hadn't rock.
Speaker 7: Do I have any.
Speaker 1: SHIFTSM No, you do not?
Speaker 7: Okay, seventeen success.
Speaker 1: Okay, what happens? Go ahead and describe it for us.
Speaker 7: I think I walk over to Australia and generally put
cup her face between my hands and I'll press my
head against hers, and I'm feeling for I think I
felt my I felt the mind of my wards enough
to understand and note essentially their fingerprints, what it usually
looks like, what it usually feels like. And I'm going
to try and see if I can identify what is
odd about it, what is has been attached to it
that's giving it an odd silhouette and odd shape. And
I want to almost I'll get physics of it. I
want to it has a wave, and I want to
produce an opposing wave to when it's superposed, is just
a flat line to cut it off. There's no signal
at all, so it's net zero.
Speaker 1: Everybody else, don't listen to me. I'm speaking entirely to
Rez right now, do you understand what this means? You
understand the implication of making her net zero. That means
if she gets lost or separated, you will never be
able to find her either, No one can find her.
Speaker 7: I'm not trying to make her net zero. I think
I know her waveform for.
Speaker 1: Lack of my tempting.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, but I'm trying to make an equal, essentially
equal opposite waveform.
Speaker 1: She already has one, trying to latch onto. Oh, they
already have one. She already has one, and they already
have one. So you're trying to you're trying to do
like a quantum entanglement with something else, right, sort of.
Speaker 7: No, there is no limit to how many wave waves
can be on top of each other. So even if
they have their own, I'll just do another one, okay,
on top it's the reverse of their new one.
Speaker 1: Yeah right, okay.
Speaker 7: And again, the thing is like a pulse coming from
first his head as I almost scan what's going on
with Australia, and then too simultaneously happening in his chest.
And I think even that kind of catches them off
guard as he's usually used to only being one and
that pulses out and I think that is that's probably
even why he's able to do this so quickly. The
energy needed came from nowhere as far as he's aware,
and was able to neutralize and scent cause that extra wave.
Want to be in that zero And I just look
to Australia. I think it's names, noticing a lot that
they're during the power or searching frustring names. We need
to use code words and a listers for maybe even
more than just ourselves.
Speaker 1: Australia, Can you put quantum cloak on your character sheet
so we don't forget? That's essentially what he's done for you.
It's fucking dope. Sure you've got a quantum cloak of invisibility. Essentially,
it's very handy. I don't know how long it's gonna last,
but for now it's pretty awesome. All right, Please continue?
Speaker 7: Sorry, how do you feel now someone's still trying to
find you? Roots for anything?
Speaker 6: There?
Speaker 12: No, it's completely vanished, okay.
Speaker 3: It do you know if they were close.
Speaker 7: Yes, they've probably been able to end the very least.
I don't know, find out book country within I don't
know how much you're able to grasp from that short
smount of time.
Speaker 1: They probably know what city you're in Australia. Like it
felt like it felt close. I think you would be
able to tell that.
Speaker 12: No, it felt closer than country.
Speaker 10: Fuck.
Speaker 12: I think they know what city we're in, maybe not
what specific part they know we're here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I uh, I would not be surprised. They'll find
this place very soon then if I can find it
with my baby magic, I'm.
Speaker 5: Gonna what we're calling it now?
Speaker 3: Sure, Okay, if I could find it, they probably between
finding your city and this geolocate Yeah, yeah, mix mix
them together and find an X. Basically, Yes, you might
want to get a little more prepared, like you were thinking.
Speaker 10: Yes, prepared for what?
Speaker 6: H that's a good question. Prepared for what.
Speaker 3: Do you want me to that the big guys that
are probably you know, chasing y'all, which you just said,
don't use that the yeah ray and that would h.
Speaker 10: I think we should come up with some other name
for them or is that going to get complicated?
Speaker 3: And how hunters mm hmm.
Speaker 10: Power? How long until a substitute name has the same
power as the permanent.
Speaker 3: When everyone starts using it.
Speaker 8: Probably in that case, calling them something like hunters or
finders will only make them stronger, right, so it needs
to be something so passive, something.
Speaker 3: You know time babies. Babies. Well, yeah, it's a little baby.
You keep insulting me about it, So maybe maybe that
it's a demeaning name. But they happen to jump around
times and places.
Speaker 8: Why not insulting you about what?
Speaker 4: I'd like to point out that I haven't mocked your
baby magic once.
Speaker 5: No real magic, that's what he wants us to call it.
Speaker 3: Apparently I was being sarcastic and apparently that's not a
thing where you come from.
Speaker 8: Babies, but it's more like an insect. The baby has magic.
Speaker 3: He's like, come on, they don't have cognition. I can
at least think and read it. Don't things? Please?
Speaker 9: Just stone? Maybe like pulling from a stone?
Speaker 8: Well you see the thing is? I mean, like, yeah,
I guess so it's stone magic? Perhaps, yeah?
Speaker 6: Works?
Speaker 3: Should you?
Speaker 8: It'd be a stranger if there was no magic, whatsoef
the absence of no that would be something else. But no,
it's like like we're talking to a litual stone.
Speaker 3: Yes, stone, they're able to find y'all very very quickly.
Might I add a very smart, brilliant stone, so he's
got way more magic than I do. He all the time.
Speaker 8: I do apologize if I if I caused defense there.
I was just trying to understand.
Speaker 3: No, you're fine, you're fine, You're fine, I get it.
I'm very shocking and surprising, and.
Speaker 7: We can with them, I mean, a bit on the nose,
but the powerless, if we're trying not to give them power.
Speaker 3: That would be a slightly self feeling prophecy.
Speaker 6: The powers, I think powerless.
Speaker 10: All right, it'll do for now. Maybe I'll switch it
up every now and then just to make sure.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a good idea. But Australia said the powerless
is name, and immediately seems like they grasped onto her mind.
I was able to push them aside, and I think
Australia is invisible to them for now. But I think
they've what narrowed it down to a city said, yeah,
no Worrier.
Speaker 9: Are you all right?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm okay.
Speaker 12: It's just very strange.
Speaker 10: Just Australia is my not the rest of you.
Speaker 7: No, yeah, at least not as I'm as far as
I'm aware.
Speaker 10: What does that feel? Like Australia exposed.
Speaker 12: I don't really know how else to explain it. I
just felt like somebody had their eyes on me. You
can't see them.
Speaker 5: Mhm, Well so a plan.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yes.
Speaker 8: I do apologize for pulling the evoca and the gun
played away. I just had to get a few things straight.
What have we missed apart from the powerless?
Speaker 7: Honestly, no think much. We just need to prepare for them.
I think if we're trying to observe, we have to
find some way to set them down enough for us
to observe before retreating.
Speaker 3: Okay, crazy idea, give me out. There's something. Well, back
when I was in the PD, something we would do
is called a sting operation. And the idea is you
basically you're laying a trap. Okay, no, no, it's well yeah,
the idea. I think of it as a bee, think
of it as be or wasp. You're basically laying a
trap to sting them. Okay, you are pulling them into somewhere. Well, yes,
the terminology aside, it's a trap like a way, got it, sure,
whatever you want to call it. You lay a trap.
They show up to do their thing, and then you
either observe and run, You observe and fight. You do
you do one of those things? Right?
Speaker 10: Well, so it's an observation trap.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it could be for sure. So listen yeahing from
here the ranges, I fuck that that they the powerless.
They they're from here to most of them, at least
one form or another. You all do stuff, especially after
you made it. So you uh, I don't remember your monica,
my apologies pointed to Australia. Uh, you just had something
done that blocked them from you. They will have noticed
that right off the bat, immediately. Okay, so they know
something is changed. They know someone might be more powerful
than them, or at least on equal terms.
Speaker 10: I'm not so what are you suggesting suggesting? We said,
staying and catch them before they can catch us.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm perfect.
Speaker 10: Creativity usually bait.
Speaker 3: You got baby magic.
Speaker 7: He does have baby magic, and I actually think that
might be a reason why we shouldn't use you, Tim,
Like you said, they know that there is someone with
powerful magic equal to or more than theirs. So the
right we might want is someone who matches that description.
Speaker 3: You're not enough. I don't know. They're really not keen
on fighting fights they can't win the shadows and all that.
They don't dive in unless they really know. Hell they
they might even send someone weaker because they see something
like an apprentice or an understudy or whatever. They won't
expect an ambush they want you. Might you not? Might
you would be able to handle a weaker one one
on par I'm not sure, especially because they might send
a lot.
Speaker 10: When you say handle, be implying we kill them, all.
Speaker 3: Right, maybe kill them to take them memories, uh, subdue them,
knock them out, trap them in a time space continuum.
I don't know.
Speaker 12: It could be a way to get answers.
Speaker 3: Yes, they're only human, and you said you can read
memories as shit, so.
Speaker 10: Hell sure they're only human.
Speaker 3: Pretty sure. I mean they got the backing of potentially God,
so that's kind of like human but kind of amplified.
Speaker 8: But you know, we saw one of these powerless before, right,
But it was strange. It was like they weren't really
there until they were yep. But I'm curious because of
how that encounter went down. What did everybody see? I
saw a man in a peaker?
Speaker 6: Is that what we're.
Speaker 7: Going to look at him? I saw the thread of
magic he uses though I couldn't remember that, and how
that looks and feels that he couldn't see him.
Speaker 3: The pea coat.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean he he was human, I suppose in essence,
but not really. It look entirely human to me. What's
almost like, I who know, It's like if you described
a human to someone who hadn't seen one before, and
then they tried to draw them. It's sort of it
seemed like and in the day, didn't they there was
something else? Wasn't they mind? He was an illusion? I
think back did it seemed like an illusion to me?
Back then? Oh? Did it seem real? Because I think
I rolled to see the true Sorry?
Speaker 1: Yeah, you did roll? You rolled like a one too, right.
It was like a critical success to be able to
see this then I think you would know that. Yeah.
There it was heavy with illusion magic, but not in
not in the way that was what you're used to.
I think it's more layers and layers of masks, similar
to what you know Raz is doing or you have
been doing. It seemed to be not in the way
to trick you, but to hide themselves from somebody looking
for them. Potentially. Okay, I saw what it was, right,
and you would know the same thing as well, which.
Speaker 6: Was the illusion the person or the mintor.
Speaker 15: Oh okay, d offer that up, I think and it was.
Speaker 6: Not quite a human, but a layered thing that I saw.
A minotaur as well as a man.
Speaker 3: Might have might have been one of the one. If
it's layered, they may have taken out a number of themselves,
it seems to track.
Speaker 10: Does that any one of them real powerful?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, oh yeah, great? Think of if you could
take all of yourselves with all your crazy magics and
layer it on top of each other.
Speaker 10: Okay, we need to think about this then, because I
really don't want to destroy more of the city. Well,
that's why you're already killed people.
Speaker 3: Well in this case, then definitely, if we want to
set a trap, and might be one of your best
options to know what you're going up against, use the
weak debate. They'll send a weaker agent because they don't
have a ton of them. Therefore, they're not going to
waste their resources on something small. If it's all of you,
they will go hard.
Speaker 6: Okay.
Speaker 4: Idea raz uses as Apple iPhone seven defined and abandoned
building somewhere a church.
Speaker 3: Call it an iPhone, Just call it an iPhone.
Speaker 7: It's an Apple iphon eleven.
Speaker 3: I know, call it an iPhone?
Speaker 5: Why why never mind? Okay, it's just iPhone. Right.
Speaker 4: We find somewhere abandoned where there isn't any risk of
harming in a sense.
Speaker 3: Right, you see, they're an old warehouse down at the ducks.
It might be abandoned. Just chicken maps. Yeah, there was
construction off of the year five.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you are you in the row twenty Dan that
I ever?
Speaker 3: No, you never did. Do You thought about it and
then you didn't. It's fine.
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure if you want to stick around or
if you're gonna die, or if you're gonna get kicked
out or whatever. I'm going to give you one now
because you need to roll.
Speaker 8: No, baby Man's iss n a club? Get out?
Speaker 1: Yeah that is your name. Now, by the way, you're
not a detective, you're the babyman.
Speaker 3: Real upset and how I've I've set myself up for this.
Speaker 12: Yeah, life's a bitch.
Speaker 1: While I do this.
Speaker 12: No, you're I said, though, Yeah, you're saying that they're
going to send only weaker agents. But we just proved
that in the same vicinity there's someone that is stronger.
Speaker 3: Right, Well, well, they may not be in the vicinity.
That's the thing they can watch. I don't know if
they're right here. However, as I mentioned, they can be
where they need to be, so if a pig of
a powerful one is watching, they will be the one
to send out the weaker one. Why do you own
did work?
Speaker 12: My point is when they detect where you are, they're
going to know that somebody stronger was already in the
same area.
Speaker 3: That's why we go to different location. Which nice hair
over here was the one who who suggested it?
Speaker 12: And are you talking a different city?
Speaker 3: No, but a different warehouse.
Speaker 12: There's the issue comes in that they know the city
that we're in, maybe not the specific endpoint location.
Speaker 3: Maybe Yeah, there are a lot of uses of magic around.
They may not be as weak as me. However, there's
quite a few out there.
Speaker 1: I think I think you would know to Tim that
based on everything you heard from redacted and co I
hesitate to even use the name. It's not real. The
Rangers don't have like I've programmed myself, y'all. They don't
really have of They're not well, they're not as well
known as say, how do I describe this? They're like
the boogeyman. So I think a lot of people just
assume that they're not really something that exists. There are
magic users that you know, joke and say Rangers three
times in the mirror like we do, Bloody Mary, Like, Oh,
it's no big deal. They're not real. They're not going
to come for us, blah blah blah. It's very rare
for someone to describe an encounter with one and even
remember it or survive or whatever the case may be.
They're just like in, you know, they're just this incredibly
rare thing. But I think that you would also know
that when they are invoked, they're not going to like,
your best option here to get one that is weaker
is the plan you are suggested. Because basically, if somebody's
sitting there using a Ouiji board, you know, summoning the spirit,
they're going to show up and be like, Okay, I
got to take care of this thing because there's this
fuck wat over in you know, Manhattan that's trying to
get us to come out, and who knows what's going
to happen, but I'll go deal with it, right Whereas
if there's like a big strong entity that's you know,
calling forth, you know one of them, then they're going
to be They're going to think it's related to something
they're interested in, Whereas, unfortunately, for our baby mancer, he's
quite a bit weaker, so they'd probably just send somebody
to investigate. They're not going to send a whole army. So, yes,
what you're saying is absolutely accurate, and I'm just confirming it.
You would know that for sure.
Speaker 3: Okay, great, you should have.
Speaker 1: You're in now right?
Speaker 3: That is correct?
Speaker 2: Yes, he.
Speaker 1: Do now have a sheet all that, Tim, But I
should have called it baby mancer.
Speaker 3: I'm very glad you didn't. Okay, not that I see it,
but you know, I think you should now iphin the
baby incorrect. Still it is.
Speaker 1: There, we go, so feel free to feel free to
change these skills. Unfortunately, you need to rename law.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, these are your points too, And I know you've
played something similar, so if you want you can reduce
stuff and do whatever you want. You're gonna need gun okay,
so maybe nimble Maybe swap nimble hands to that. Yeah yeah, yeah,
some other stuff okay, and your locked skill, uh and
matrix need to go away. Your locked skill needs to
be twenty or fifteen and it's your magic, your baby magic.
I'm so sorry.
Speaker 3: It's kind of just putting a baby magic twenty and
the government is.
Speaker 1: The governing stat needs to be fifty five, which is
the base level. You can yeah, you can move your
actually swap those around so you see how body is
fifty five and dine is sixty five. Swap swamp, give
your body sixty five so that you can, you know, right, nimble.
Speaker 6: There we go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, perfect, Yeah, now go crazy.
Speaker 3: I done right, great, there we go, Thank you, you're welcome. Okay.
Speaker 1: Oh, in a add in a like some sort of
lucky you can call it lucky rabbit, you can call it,
you know, underground whatever you want for your info for
all the shit that goes on the super natural underworld.
Speaker 3: What's what what a governing stat? Is that?
Speaker 1: Sorry, probably undermined. If you want to put it under magic,
you can, but that's your weakest stats, so I probably wouldn't.
Speaker 3: Yeah, nope, you're fine, you're fine. Oh I ain't no haircut?
All right, there we go.
Speaker 1: Perfect.
Speaker 3: Okay, so I bet that I had to think a
little harder there than normal. This will work. This is
how the magic community works here. Yeah, they're not gonna
send an army for me. They're gonna send one to
investigate because they're gonna think some fuck with is playing
around with stupid shit and getting in just making a
problem for them, rather than something they need to immediately
send an army. There are people that do this shit
as like a superstitious wuha, and they'll just ignore it.
More than one magic user in a city is common.
So they found you found that you blocked them, and
they might go, eh, we might need to look into
that more, but we're not gonna mess with it yet
because we need to investigate more. They find some stupid
little guy doing baby magic on the pier, they will
look at that.
Speaker 7: Okay, it's a work all right, ween.
Speaker 10: It will be consequences as soon as they're lives what
has happened, and they will surely realize what has happened.
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably, but you'll have info.
Speaker 8: You won't be have info, but you're putting your life
on the line though.
Speaker 3: That's what I do. I did it when I came here,
didn't I y'all could have just popped me out of
existence immediately I came here. I don't learn unless I
take risks. I've been doing this for four years now,
we can.
Speaker 7: Set some precautions and just to make sure that you're safe.
Speaker 3: I do appreciate that y spells and.
Speaker 7: Traps and the like that they could tricker to stop
them from doing anything drastic.
Speaker 9: And what's the plan once they're there? We take them,
question them.
Speaker 4: I'd say, we move them somewhere different. Right, they got
to be able to track just like we can.
Speaker 6: Yes, so we.
Speaker 4: Subdue them, move them because otherwise we're going to set
off something.
Speaker 6: Right.
Speaker 9: Can they attract their own You would imagine they can.
Speaker 3: They can for sure, if it's something tiny. They might
not do it immediately, though I can't confirm a hundred percent.
Speaker 11: But yeah, would it not be best to keep them
in the city.
Speaker 3: That would be correct. Don't move them out of the city.
Speaker 9: Don't move them out of the city, tim Yeah, what
are you fighting for?
Speaker 3: This world? My family, my friends? Not that there are
many of them? What else is there?
Speaker 8: Person? Indeed, it's just time and time again. You've talked
about wanting to put your life on a line, you know,
to go against all odds too, as you say, be
snapped out of existence.
Speaker 6: I just wanted to know the measure of a man
who would want to do that.
Speaker 3: You can't win if you don't risk.
Speaker 7: I see, okay, if we are going to have the
peer as a place where we set the trap, we
should decide on the second location if we are going
to move them.
Speaker 9: Did anyone else you're alternate here? Did anybody else have
an apartment or a house or somewhere to stay?
Speaker 3: I gotta I gotta say house. I could get you
the info for I have places around. It's just an
apartment but down the queen's areas.
Speaker 10: Oh wait, to stop the range of being tracked by
their own because without a doubt, they be able to
track each other easily. They know each other.
Speaker 3: Whatever whatever you did to hear, why not there.
Speaker 7: We'll actually need help. I don't. That was the first
time I've done it, and I'm quite glad it worked.
But I could try to make them invisible to their
own as well.
Speaker 9: Remember it's the powerless, Yeah, the powerless.
Speaker 3: I will use a different word. I'll use their real one.
That'll be the best way to get them to show
up well when they're time like as a eh.
Speaker 6: Are you sure of that?
Speaker 5: Tim?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: That's that's Oh you were serious? I thought that was
I mean no, No, that's fair, no time life right now.
Speaker 5: I guess just seems a little on the nose.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's fair. Yeah, I ain't any human agea that's
all right. I was totally deflected with humor.
Speaker 7: Are you ready to head out?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I can hear hear me iPhone, I'll put in the address.
Speaker 7: Yeah, here you go, hanover thanks.
Speaker 3: Uh, yeah, it's right here, pere number five. Okay, yeah,
I got in mind. I mean we're walking. We're going together,
I assume, but nonetheless, just in case we get pulled apart,
not literally, not literally, ain't jinxing that?
Speaker 7: Yeah? Thanks? I look to everyone. Are we ready? This
is going to be a lot from what lettle be?
Speaker 10: Now?
Speaker 6: Ready?
Speaker 9: Ready, money.
Speaker 7: And I will lead the way. Looking down at my
phone as at trying to follow this route.
Speaker 3: I definitely would help you knowing the city at all.
Speaker 10: Does anybody want to do anything?
Speaker 1: Or can I just put you there? Can I just say? Oh,
we're there now?
Speaker 3: I ain't got nothing to do?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Okay, cool, great, awesome. Let's uh. Are you guys going together?
Actually I'm assuming you're all traveling in one big group?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 1: Okay, who wants to roll for me? Just to see
if you are noticed.
Speaker 5: Art what.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say, face, should you should let
her do it because she's got the quantum cloak. I
don't know if you knew that less.
Speaker 12: Yeah, she's she should be the one that does it.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, would you like to roll your quantum cloak,
which basically I think I'm just going to give you
a shift I guess thirty.
Speaker 16: Okay.
Speaker 12: I do also have a stealth skill in general, a
concealed skill.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's do that, and then plus the quantum cloak bonus.
Speaker 12: Okay, but we can only do a twenty shift, so
it'll be plus ten on top of that.
Speaker 1: Right, so just school mentally, we'll do the math there.
Speaker 9: For success.
Speaker 12: We don't even need the shift.
Speaker 1: Holy shit, God damn man, I'm coming for you.
Speaker 10: All right.
Speaker 1: Fine, I don't see you. I don't see you. Go
have fun. All right, you arrived, nobody noticed you.
Speaker 10: You're all good.
Speaker 1: I will get you. Eventually, someone will fuck up. All right.
Speaker 10: This is it's a place to thank you.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, so let me just see here.
Speaker 10: Can you describe it?
Speaker 3: Yeah? So what you're looking at is an old uh
it's an old shipping warehouse, maritime warehouse that used to
pull in boats, repair them, that sort of thing that's
just kind of falling out, you know, the whole the
whole world thing. Recently, inflation jobs going away, they end
up having to shut the damn thing down. Not enough
ships being built. So you got a nice chain link
fence surrounding this right up against the pier. There's a
nice big dog the dry dock as well. They'd have
probably a few generators that have gone out, some standing
lights that are flickering here and there. Pretty you're kind
of you know, your metal sheet roofing, your brick walls.
It looks like it was probably built at least one
hundred years ago, if not longer, and they've just done
some renovations, so it's it's kind of shoddy. I'd probably
pull out some small wire cutters and start cutting a
hole in the fence. Question off the side.
Speaker 1: For Fay because she knows the area. Well, is this
still okay to be in that one area in Manhattan?
I'm not forgetting what it's called by the that railway,
that old railway that used to be an actual train track,
but now it's turned into like a walkway, a park
walkway that you can walk on. How what is it
fucking called?
Speaker 12: Well, let me do some Google foo as well, because
my brain is not on today.
Speaker 1: The highlight duck. Yeah, so there's like a weird district
there that seems to me like it would be would
have plenty of like warehouses and stuff like that, but
I actually don't know. So anyway, well Google foo. If
if it is there, then that's where this is taking place.
But if that doesn't work, then I'm just gonna let
pay de side for us because she knows, does she though?
Well she will in a moment after she does a
very successful Google Google foo. Okay, sorry to interrupt.
Speaker 12: Warehouse is nearby?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I thought. Okay, cool, awesome, that's where
you are then.
Speaker 3: Right, so I discreetly am cutting a hole off on
this side with the swayacatas is. You know, they lock
the place and I don't. I didn't bring bolt cutters.
That's way too obvious.
Speaker 1: You don't need bolt cutters. You have the king makers
with you literally melt stuff.
Speaker 3: Do I think I know that?
Speaker 10: I mean I would hold anybody if anybody tries to
do any magic.
Speaker 11: I like literally made like twenty gun blades out of
dust in front of you.
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm trying to be discreet. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. Are fair all right?
Speaker 3: I'm from you.
Speaker 12: He was summon him some bolt cutters, so he shuts.
Speaker 3: I was talking discreetly about what I was doing, which
is cutting holes.
Speaker 6: Vegas.
Speaker 7: What was theocas? I am.
Speaker 10: If anybody tries to do any magic that isn't Tim
a vagueold stop them immediately.
Speaker 1: Okay, well that's right discretion.
Speaker 10: Damn it. Tim has a very specific flavor of magic,
and I really don't want any of our magic's acting
as a beacon to this place. I'm like, clew them
into something.
Speaker 1: I'm me cast the spell is just where?
Speaker 10: Baby?
Speaker 12: Do I get the sense though, with the whole thing
that ras is that if I were to do magic,
they would be able to sense it or not?
Speaker 1: No, they wouldn't. I think you feel perfectly comfortable right now.
I think I actually don't know if this like power
surge would go to your head or what. But like
I've since you, since you died and I'm using air
quotes for those listening, you know, since you were hung
and all that happened to you, I think you've felt
like something is watching you this whole time, and now
you don't feel that, so I imagine my are God, damn it,
I imagine you feel.
Speaker 12: Oh stop looking at a spire.
Speaker 10: Stop it.
Speaker 1: Sorry for those watching listening, the group chats just fucking disgusting.
Speaker 12: Sorry, I don't think they can sense me, even if
I do. Imagine I looked to a story.
Speaker 10: If you want something, then trust you, all right, So, Tim,
do you want me to please help them.
Speaker 12: Or would you like to like gnaw it off?
Speaker 3: I got? I got fucking why it cutters? I'm cutting
the damp thing like as he's cutting a hole in
the fence, like, do you not like what happened? Do
you not see me.
Speaker 12: More effectiveness?
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, dis question how did he make this city?
Speaker 8: If everything takes so long?
Speaker 3: That actually is a point of contention in the city council.
Admittedly I think Third Street hasn't stopped its construction for
five years. But that's all right, I see it was
it fourth Maybe it's both of them anyway. Yeah, there's
a hole in the fence there. It is, Okay, you
gotta crawl in a little bit. I didn't want it
to be noticeable. If you happen to just walk by
real quick Okay, all right, I'm trying here.
Speaker 12: I mean, I could just get an illusion on it
that it's not broken.
Speaker 3: I'm the one who's trying to get them to show up, right.
Speaker 10: Yes, it makes sense of a human being with this
slow human method. Just try to get in this way
just adds to it, doesn't it.
Speaker 3: I'm just maybe I'll jump off the pier after this.
Speaker 10: I don't know, that's right. I would like you to
try and mascars though somewhat if you can, just I
don't know, you know how sometimes there were you the
smell to cover another smell. I think we need to
do something similar with our magic so that we don't
have a trace lingery.
Speaker 8: It came to jumping off a pier.
Speaker 10: Okay, perhaps absorbing well any ambient.
Speaker 12: I could either try to take what it is that
Ras did to me and apply it to you are
where I could try and maybe mask us with Tim's magic.
Speaker 3: Either way, we should do this quickly like Tim.
Speaker 12: At least, I guess they'd only be able to sense us.
That's right, similar in.
Speaker 7: Nature, it be best out of the two options. Maybe
better and easier to mask.
Speaker 10: Us as make a smell like baby magic.
Speaker 7: Yeah, why did he is very specific and get that
new baby the same method.
Speaker 12: Well, all right, come here, pebble the same And I'm
going to go ahead and just put my hand on Tim,
and I'm going to try and channel his magic into
a little bit of a weave with my own in
order to try and apply it to everyone else.
Speaker 3: En Roll for me anyway I can help.
Speaker 1: How would you help Tim with your baby?
Speaker 10: Master?
Speaker 9: You could sing a beautiful song?
Speaker 3: He want me to think? I mean we just quiet
cry for milk. I guess, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean if you think it would help.
Speaker 3: No, I'm just I'm just thinking maybe I can help
channel magic, so I could put something in you you
can what would you.
Speaker 1: Like to channel and what would you like to put
into it?
Speaker 3: Literally just trying to concentrate and get a small well
of power. That's it. Just trying to think on what
I can feel.
Speaker 1: What are you feeling? Describe it?
Speaker 3: All right? So the way the way I see magic
for myself, it's it ties in. I see threads. I
try to pull it threads here and there for information,
like like follow the threads of a case. That's how
I was able to visualize it easily when I was
first learning and so that's what I kind of do.
I try to imagine the threads, especially the now that
she's put her hand on my shoulder, the thread between
us and kind of holding on to that, not pulling
it away from her, but kind of grasping it.
Speaker 12: And I'll be embracing that connection too, because I'm trying
to get as close of a identical match to it
for everyone.
Speaker 1: Else, an identical match to what to.
Speaker 12: I suppose, like his level of magic, whatever it is
that he's trying to kind of convey to me. Got
it in that interaction?
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Tim, Yeah, go ahead and describe what
your magic is like I guess for us, your baby magic.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean it kind of looks if you're able
to look at it, it looks like a notebook, one
that you'd kind of flip open and take notes on.
And the writing's not a language, it's more of a
feeling where almost think of it as like when I said,
a notebook, but like in front of you, so you
can see script being written. And that's where some of
those threads I can pull from as I find information,
Because this whole point the reason I got into it
was to look into a lot of this. So the
magic is more writing. If anything. The script I don't know,
but I can feel and understand. It's basic. I'm aware
there's no moving colors and cool stuff, but to me,
it's special. It's mine.
Speaker 1: Okay, Astraia, go ahead and roll. You can have a shift.
You have one shift for a specific phrase you use,
and another shift for Tim's help.
Speaker 12: Okay, twenty eight success.
Speaker 1: Describe what happens.
Speaker 12: You would see my hand on Tim and I kind
of fade out a little bit mentally because I'm focusing
really really hard on what it is that he's trying
to convey, and with that, you'd see like a small
purple hue kind of where my hand is touching his shoulder,
absorbing that information. And as that kind of transfers over
to everyone else, you'll start to see the scripts that
he's envisioning kind of start dancing along your skin, each
and every one of you, until it disappears.
Speaker 8: How do I look.
Speaker 12: Like baby magic?
Speaker 6: I guess that's a good thing, all right?
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 10: I suppose we should have hide somewhere and Tim, you
should do something. What kind of thing would you usually
do with that? Anyway? Boil an egg.
Speaker 3: Now, find threads of information that I'm looking for my case.
God damn it, you just don't have you just twist
the knife over and dove and dove.
Speaker 10: I just maybe you should just wander around and look
for your threats of information.
Speaker 3: I know what I need to I know what I
need to.
Speaker 12: Do here, but we want to set traps, right.
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, you do that. All wait, you give me,
you give me the you give me the the go. Okay,
I'm gonna look around real quick and just see find
a good spot where you get a good view of
me and more view of what's going on in Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Before you yes, one second, before you do that, Tim,
do you remember are you going to try to draw
the thing the symbol for memory?
Speaker 12: Oo?
Speaker 1: Are you doing anything to help with that?
Speaker 12: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Are you doing anything to try to aid this? Or
are you just gonna try to say the name nine times?
Speaker 3: That symbol that the symbol of ether is probably the
best way to tie it to them that they'll go ooh,
this guy's fucking with the thing we don't want. But
he's not very strong. That's that's definitely a good call.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, go do whatever investigating.
Speaker 3: You are doing. Yes, looking around go for it.
Speaker 1: Lear you had a question for me.
Speaker 8: Please describe the time of day, the scene in general,
what's around us.
Speaker 1: It's a little dreary. It's raining outside. It's been raining
every day since you got here. It's that fine time
between h uh. It's twilight outside, so the sun's no
longer out, but you can still see the effects of
like the sun setting. It's a bit foggy. There was
just a snowstorm in New York yesterday and today, right, yeah,
I think so it's a little foggy. The warehouse is
I mean, you've never seen anything like this before. I
have to keep reminding myself you guys haven't seen present day.
You haven't seen New York. Like, I don't know what
you would make of chains hanging from the ceiling. I
think you probably assume this is a dungeon of sorts,
you know, Like, yeah, I think I think it's probably
has a little bit of an eerie vibe to you
a bit. You know, there are these you know, crates
and things that are probably like hanging from the ceiling
or seeing this machinery, which I don't you know know
how you would interpret that. I think now you understand
that this machinery is man made and built to assist
and to help and to move things from one place
to the other. But it's still at the very core
that doesn't really make sense to you. Because you guys
use magic. You can literally go boop booh boop, you know, like,
why would you need to build a machine to help
you do this thing? It's very, very strange.
Speaker 8: The reason I ask is just so I know how
to if we are setting traps, I want to know
what I can use to set that trap.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, chains, there are boxes, there are other little
like what is the word that I'm thinking of, It's
like the steel crate that would be inside the warehouse.
I think you guys had a snow storm yesterday. Does
anybody know anybody from New York in the chat?
Speaker 8: Thirty four degrees what I mean.
Speaker 1: And snow is on the ground and I hate it.
Here there you go. It's it's thirty four degrees. That's fahrenheit, right,
I don't know what that is Celsius faranhow.
Speaker 12: It's on my head zero thirty four fahrenheit.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it's exactly today's weather in New York.
If you want to look it up in google.
Speaker 8: Okay, thank you, I have what I need to do.
Speaker 10: Yep, perfect, Consider please continue instead of a physical trap.
Though we could use the physical trap, it would probably
be child's play for him to escape. It would be
child play for any of us to escape. Consider if
we are the trap, we surround the warehouse, and I
have this suspicion that the way we will work, we're
all connected, we're all in tune with each other. It's
something not in tune with us, something so opposite, it's
in the middle of all of us. I have a
feeling everything we are just from existing. With a little
bit of effort, we could probably trap him right there.
If we all work together and connect with each.
Speaker 8: Other, we have a place to put him. Motioning to
my tattoo and my wrist. Okay, narrator, are you planning
against seating.
Speaker 12: Them with the magic I've applied to everyone? Would I
get the feeling that if they used their magic they
would be giving off a trace of themselves or are
they masks sufficiently?
Speaker 1: Their masks sufficiently? Your role succeeded beautifully.
Speaker 12: Well, if you want to go ahead and put any
traps down magically at the moment, you should be okay,
regardless whether we'd like to prepare or not.
Speaker 7: Okay, I don't see why we can't do both. Then
set traps and be the trap, right, I will set
one as close as I can to where Tim plans
on stopping, because I like look around to see where
Tim is walking around to, So just what's the plan?
Speaker 8: Then weaken them and then seal them? Or are we
all focusing our might to try and seal them from
the get go?
Speaker 6: I look at they do the evoca.
Speaker 10: I'm thinking, I'm thinking there's a chance, a high chance,
that this powers is going to try and use some magic.
And while they're in the midst of trying to use
their magic, we catch them in a position were they
they are strapped by their own energy. And then at
that point but good thanks to them, And at that
point perhaps we converge. And then you simply contution. I
wonder if we can go to a place like where
Arafia took us, have somewhere that is not quite where
we are.
Speaker 8: Somewhere in between for the people here you mean, mhm,
the oracle.
Speaker 6: Acted in. Is that even possible?
Speaker 10: I guess we've never tried it. We never tried to
just go back without going into them. We never tried
to move it all really, not like that, not naturally.
Speaker 8: I suppose we haven't all right, he appears to be
in position. I guess we should as well. So I
looked to the to the group, and I guess we
should probably position ourselves in a circle. Then I'll go
over there, and then when he gives the thumbs up,
I guess what was it was?
Speaker 6: Up right?
Speaker 8: Thumbs up?
Speaker 16: Okay, yes, Before we do anything, though, I do want
to do something similar to that I've done in the past,
and I'd like to conjure up a moonflower.
Speaker 1: Okay, do you need to roll for this or can
you just do it now?
Speaker 12: Well, I've done it before, and I feel particularly unchained
at the moment, so it's not unreasonable to suggest that
I would be able to do it.
Speaker 1: I think you're just able to do it.
Speaker 12: Okay, we are ready to get in position.
Speaker 7: Then I will see if I can place a delay
teleportation of some kind on the detective, just to get
him out of harm's way the moment. We need that
to happen.
Speaker 1: Okay, this, how is this teleport going to work?
Speaker 7: I've done something similar when Lear and I first met,
I accidentally switched places with him ended up with his words,
and he ended up with mine. I'm just going to
do the exact same thing, but I'll attach Tim to
a crate and switch places. Switched him's place with the
create for example, when this the Powerless show up big
we need to roll now for that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so I can figure out.
Speaker 7: Any shifts.
Speaker 1: I don't think so unless you can argue one.
Speaker 7: Just have done this exact thing before.
Speaker 1: Okay, multiple so you're familiar with it multiple times. Okay,
yeah that can be a shift. You feel comfortable casting
it again? No problem?
Speaker 7: Yeah, forty three success. As I walk up to the
detective and just say this might tingle, I'm not entirely sure. Honestly,
I haven't done it with anyone. I won't insult you again,
and I'll close my eyes and reach out, and I
think you feel it almost like a children your spine.
I think for most people it is just kind of
din't really noticed, but for you is definitely noticeable. Where
I grab the thread of your essence magic, your position,
specifically your positioning time and space, and tie it to
I'd say, like a crate we saw outside the warehouse,
I'd tie it to that and just go. When the
time comes and the powerless arrive, I will teleport you
out of harm's way and then we can deal with
the powerless without you being in danger. You'll be just
outside the warehouse.
Speaker 3: So all right, I can do that. Well, I mean,
you can do that, but I'll be a part of it.
Speaker 7: Yeah, And I will head away, and I think I'll
try and find a high advantage point still to create
a circle when connecting all all of us, but a
high vantage point where I can look down at the detective.
Speaker 1: Should there be three layers or let's go with two.
That makes it very easy. So you've got like one
set of stairs it's got you know, it's the see
through metal grating that's in a typical of a warehouse,
and the the catwalk and the walkways are held on
with chain, so they will move a bit, so you'll
have to keep yourself steady and be aware of that.
But yeah, you can absolutely, you can absolutely find advantage points.
Can everybody tell me where approximately they're gonna be. I'm
gonna try to see if I can just put up
a blank screen for us for now.
Speaker 8: Okay, So I was the first to leave the group.
I went as far as I could in my mind,
because it's snow the way it did. There's a snow bank.
I'm going to be by there, I guess, like either
in behind or over it, or just so I can
see what's happening. But I have all this snow at
my disposal.
Speaker 1: Have moved you to a blank page? I think yes? Correct, Okay,
go ahead and drag your tokens onto the page, and
before Brad finishes drawing the stick on the screen, let's
mark where Tim is going to be. Tim, I imagine
you're here in the middle of this surfa.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 3: It was the idea to be in the center of
the warehouse, so there's the most ability for them to
see spots as possible.
Speaker 12: Okay, are there any like rafters?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think we've got the We've got the walkway, the
catwalk kind of type thing or the walkway that's on
the second level, but it's held by chain, so it's
going to move around a little bit, okay, and it's
probably yeah, okay, so you're up there. Ras is up there.
Speaker 15: I have like seventeen thousand sheets and none of them
have a token attached.
Speaker 1: Oh what that can't be possible. You had one before.
Speaker 12: Right.
Speaker 1: Oh weird? Okay, Oh that's right, that's right, because we've
morphed your sheet like eighty million times in the original
sheet didn't work, right, Okay, well, this is fine. You
don't need a token for now, and just go ahead
use it a little squished figure.
Speaker 15: Because I am just with Ras the entire time for
the rest of the campaign. Wherever he is, I'm like
standing next to him or behind him or something like that.
Speaker 1: Perfect, all right, I will position myself directly opposite Leer.
Speaker 7: It's a thing I do make sure.
Speaker 3: Cool.
Speaker 1: You can have ten shifts as long as you are
parallel celeir when you're doing your magic. Okay, Sorry, there
are a bunch of things happening, and I know we
want to everybody on the page. Is everybody where they're
going to be? People who are on an upper level?
Can you just like put a little draw on the
map and put like a little red dot on you
or something so that we know or remember because I
trust y'all, just so I.
Speaker 6: Have the uh sorry, yes, this place clear?
Speaker 8: So are we inside a building? Is this like a
full enclosed building or is it exposed to the elements.
It's like a partial building.
Speaker 6: This is like a what a dock?
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, it's a dock. Let's see that. It's one
of those warehouses that has like a big open garage
door or basically like you know, no door, so it's
kind of open so that shipping can go in and
out of it. So you've got one of those on
each side maybe of the buildings where there's snow and elements,
and you guys can use that for your magic. But
Tim is right in the middle of it, so all
right on either side of him would be those big
open doors, and then you guys can find places to
hide inside. And they're random, various stacked boxes. And I'm
just going to trust you all to say, like, okay,
if I want to be I'm behind a crate right
now inside this hangar, and we'll go with it. I
trust you to describe collectively what this scene looks like.
All right, does anybody else want to do anything?
Speaker 15: I don't know if I have any control over anything,
by the way, like all that stuff.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I will try to give you control or
I will move you if need be, But for now,
you are here next to raz right, this is where
you want to be?
Speaker 9: Yes, Okay, where's Titus.
Speaker 5: He want to bear.
Speaker 6: I don't know why all mm hmmm. Class.
Speaker 10: As we were setting up, I actually do a loop
show around yea, the entire warehouse. I'm tracing a fully
pround and then before I set led position.
Speaker 1: All right, so you're doing what are you doing with this?
Is this giving yourself a shift in future?
Speaker 10: This is uh, this has given myself potential movement in
the future. Debt object basically taking my position.
Speaker 1: Yep, nice, I love it. Very clever use of debt magic. Okay,
all right, now what happened? Who does what?
Speaker 3: I hold up my thumb for everybody kind of look around. Yeah,
do y'all know what this means? It means I'm ready?
Are you ready?
Speaker 6: The sign?
Speaker 3: I just teach? These are they? They call me a baby?
I don't even know if thumbs up? All right, okay,
I take my pen that I've been keeping it my ear,
and right on the ground in front of me a
triangle and a line through the top, the symbol of ether,
the symbol that used all the time. The detective is
here looking for ranges. The detective is here looking for ranges.
The detective is here looking for ranges.
Speaker 10: Three.
Speaker 3: It didn't work. Out right, let's try it. The detective
is here looking for rangers. The detective is here looking
for rangers. The detective is here looking for ranges. And
I'm going to start pulling on threads that might tie
to the symbol.
Speaker 1: What are you thinking about right now? Him?
Speaker 3: Oh, he's fucking happy. Yeah, he's getting answers. Yeah, he's
getting answers. He's been looking for years. This is the
first time he's ever gotten such a solid lead. And
he's thinking about the ranges. He's thinking a little about
what everyone said about, you know, coming from another world.
He's thinking how exciting that is the fact that one
of them was even like, you're going to stick around
with us. That made him really happy.
Speaker 1: And yeah, does it occur to you that that might
be exactly how this other thing that you are calling
feels first lead in a long time, Very happy, finally
getting answers. I think maybe the words Astraya used were
perfect match, right, identical match, is what she said.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think so. I mean, I'm doing stuff
that was in this book. I'm trying to match it
in a lot of ways. I want to be the
best detective possible and save this place as best I can.
Speaker 1: All right, Okay, go ahead and roll for me. You're
gonna get a shift. You're gonna get two shifts. Actually,
you're gonna get a shift for the assistance from everybody,
and then you're gonna get a shift from what Astraya said.
If you want to use it.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah no, if he feels any.
Speaker 1: Help, yeah, just like something different might occur. Okay, yep, fine, cool,
you can use the ten from her identity win.
Speaker 3: Without a risky Let's see. I guess i'd be rolling
Baby Magic, wouldn't I?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and then do me.
Speaker 3: Yep, go ahead roll that, okay, and shift. You're gonna
have to. I'm sorry, I'm a little old.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'm so sorry. I'm just like, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's.
Speaker 3: Gonna pop up like I use Baby Magic.
Speaker 1: Put you put twenty into the shift button. That pops up.
Speaker 3: Great, I'm doing that. Thank you ten for each shift
I see.
Speaker 1: I see total of twenty.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that is a very big success. That's it. Two.
Speaker 1: Do you think it's your success or do you think.
Speaker 3: It's Oh, it's Tim's success.
Speaker 1: Is it your success? It's yeah, but do you understand
what I'm saying?
Speaker 10: Tim?
Speaker 1: Is it your success? Or okay, all right, tell us
what happens.
Speaker 3: Then it's my success.
Speaker 1: Let's go, baby magic, let's bucket.
Speaker 3: Tim's been holding on to a little He's been very happy,
but there's a tiny bit of anger, just a little
bit frustration. He's been to mean for hours. Now baby's
and maybe maybe maybe there's a little baby rage. Doesn't matter.
He finds a thread that looks perfectly like.
Speaker 1: His Oh bitch, roll again.
Speaker 3: Shift again.
Speaker 1: Oh you should see a different sheet on.
Speaker 10: Sheet please?
Speaker 6: All right?
Speaker 3: No shift for that?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's that's the identical shift. Okay, perfect, thank you?
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: What happens to him?
Speaker 3: I'm pulling on this thread? The note of perfect match
kicks in. Tim is feeling power like he's never felt
before and begins to yank this thread as best he
can and pulls it and puts it into that symbol,
overlays that triangle with the line through it, because he
knows that as power, and he knows it will be
a beacon. And once he feels it succeeds, Tim waits
and he just kind of holds a nice little thumbs
up for everybody.
Speaker 1: And what happens, Tim, I think you feel it before
you recognize what's happening.
Speaker 3: Tim's eyes go wide and all that's left is his head.
Speaker 17: And out from the darkness steps arranger.
Speaker 1: Him.
Speaker 9: That's not my name, sorry, what's your name?
Speaker 3: I am the prosecutor. Yeah, and we're baals oo.
Speaker 6: Nice.
Speaker 1: All right, let's do some shout outs. That was crazy, dude,
and totally unexpected. I'm like listening to you guys. And
also like we were just saying chat that I had
something else planned a bit, and then Fay said identical match,
and I went, oh, I suppose there's probably some reality
somewhere where Tim wanted answer so badly he became a ranger.
So we're gonna do that, and quickly, let's make a
character she and Dan are you okay doing this? And
blah blah blah blah. So yeah, anyway, well fuck me
for the twin idea. Of course, it's from the Gemini.
It made perfect sense. And so when I gave you
that ten shift from her, it was for the identic,
like for your twin, right, so you didn't have to
use it.
Speaker 10: Fu.
Speaker 1: Dan, you killed him?
Speaker 3: Yea, he died, all right, let's go around.
Speaker 7: Oh I'm drag.
Speaker 3: It was just quite until.
Speaker 7: At this point following me on Twitter at dracon links
is d r A k N I q U e S.
Speaker 6: Wow.
Speaker 7: That was cool. I was honestly, I was trying to
keep him alive. But I guess that the teleport, I mean,
my sort of in chat teleported Tim's decapitated head to
the location of Weather Creative.
Speaker 3: So that's cool, that's the way around.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's literally we're just going to say, the descapitated
head is just sitting right by Vega. Sorry, and in
case anybody is wondering, Tim's decapitated head is right by Vega.
Oh yeah, we can fix that.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 8: Nice.
Speaker 7: Yeah, but that's men. Yeah, that's he's next. You take it.
Speaker 3: Hello, I'm Domestic Dan, and I played Tim past tense
uh here or the detective and uh yeah, this was
a this was a fun little uh little romp. I
was expecting to be here for one episode and instead
it was three. So it was lovely four.
Speaker 1: You gotta fight them next week, all.
Speaker 3: Right, Sorry, that's true, that's true. So anyway, Yeah, I
also played the prosecutor, but that's fine. Uh yeah, you
can find me to mesic Dan everywhere I do that stuff.
I don't know. This show is like the mind fuck
uh and they and I got thrown in at who

Speaker 3: This show's awesome.
Speaker 11: I can't that bad ending insane. I'm just gonna be
scrambling trying to figure out what to do next week.
Speaker 9: That's for sure.
Speaker 11: Yeah there, I think that might be our first combat
here in this world. All right, so that's gonna be
really weird, and I'm sure there's gonna be different sort
of rulesishness. I don't know, maybe maybe not, but it's crazy,
super amazing.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 11: I'm also on a show on Thursday's close called Ashes
of Area Door, so you can check me out then
and sometimes I stream on my channel MARKOLS.
Speaker 1: Thank you for having me a Meyer.
Speaker 8: Hello, my name is Meyer, and I played Lear the
light Bringer today almost I got my own code name.
Speaker 6: And yeah, like what a second episode?
Speaker 8: I mean like every single time we come into these
came macus episode something just straight up I've given up
guessing or even anticipating what happens in the next week,
because like you just never know.
Speaker 1: I don't know, and.
Speaker 8: Whatever happened, yeah, and whatever happens is always the best
possible version of whatever can happen, Like be at the
dice Bach is what people come up with. It's just amazing.
It's a trip and I've just been so like a
happy you know, like every single time I sit down
here with you guys and do this. But you can
find me at twitch dot tv fod slash Mayer, where
I am very sleep deprived doing stuff. Hopefully one day
we'll come back to doing our normal streams what we
do gaming news and startedis in and stuff like that.
But otherwise you can find me in the dead of
night at twelve midnight UTC normally where I play a
wild RP pretend to be a cowboy and not really
on the same channel. Actually, yeah, that's me. I also
have a Twitter. You can find that where that is
by checking out the ood last week's pod.
Speaker 3: Uh leah, uh hi.
Speaker 10: God, thank god the show's I episode. I'd have to
look at this filthy group chat anymore. Disgusting, absolutely vile
human beings. U a pleasure as always it's always absolutely
wild ride. I have no idea where it's going to
end up. So yeah, absolutely love getting on the shroller
coaster every week and being terrified all the same every
every time I see that plus one message I get
the fair im is terrible. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, I've been Vega.
Speaker 10: Today the evoca is to her new name, and it
has been very fun trying to use my brain, which
is in there somewhere. You catch me at twitch dot
tv for especially.
Speaker 1: And some crazy wisdom. Today I felt like, did anyone notice,
like just the philosophy you guys were talking about the
first scene of the show, the episode, I was like,
what the fuck? The whole episode would just be this
and I'd listen to this podcast.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I was channeling my in a philosophy student who's
not being Johnny. Jenny.
Speaker 4: Hi, I'm really sad, so I'm gonna keep it briefed.
I'm Johnny Blambs. You can find me on my channel
where I play pretend cowboys in a flickt Trauma and
the rest of my friends.
Speaker 3: Tim was really cool and.
Speaker 4: I had this really euphoric feeling when Dan said this
was Tim. When I just started cackling because I found
it so amazing. So yeah, I'm really sad, but the
show is awesome. Thank you for having me. I'm gonna
pass over to Brad. Hello there, my name's Brad.
Speaker 15: I didn't say a lot because my internet's been really
weird and it probably doesn't look like it from your
side bed every now and then, you guys would like going.
I hope that they didn't say something important. So this
was interesting, but also it makes sense a little bit
like error. As much as he has ideas, he doesn't
probably rely on just his normal just brain and you
know what.
Speaker 1: Are you can a baby magic, a real baby right over.
Speaker 15: Here, even baby magic. He just has no magic. So
I just kind of took it as he was just like, well,
let's see what they do, Let's see what happens. I'm
just going to be here with my gun thing for
when this ship pops off, and I'm just literally is
just going to be hiding behind rats like this for
the entire rest of the campaign, I think. So yeah,
I don't know. It was very fun though. Don't worry
about my channel. You can watch my table story show
on Sundays if you want. It's a Star Wars campaign
and the fourth episode will be this Sunday coming up.
Speaker 6: That's it's all I got. If you want to watch that,
check that out. I think is that everyone?
Speaker 1: No, it's fine. It's Tide of a drug go to.
Speaker 5: I have no idea who you are as you started it.
Speaker 1: You always start us off. Okay, I'm sorry, my brain
is gone.
Speaker 12: Hi, I'm failing. You can find me on my channel,
Twitsch of TV slash Fhalen. I play all sorts of stuff,
but I've been doing a lot of Wilder Pa as well.
Speaker 10: Recently.
Speaker 12: I'm also on table story on Mondays for one hundred Club,
which is coming to a close. I think next episode. Yeah,
Dan and I are having an existential crisis about that one.
But yeah, I played Astraya or the Gemini today, I'm
also a real life Gemini. Let's get that on the
dating app. And I'm just gonna go ahead and pass
it on over to dear narrator pumpkin Berry.
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, thank you. I'm so glad that
you took the description from me, Dan, because I was
going to melt you. My original plan was to just
like melt his skin away Raiders of the Lost Ark style,
and Dan was just like my head's gone, and I
was like, yeah, okay, that's that's fine, that his body's gone.
Excuse me, we don't have to get crazy descriptive of
about his skin melting away and then have Dan screaming
in their ears for five seconds.
Speaker 3: I was ready. I know you were having you that.
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I think I'm melting your skin off.
Speaker 8: Just so you're aware, is it still decapitation if the
body is removed and not the head?
Speaker 1: What would that be then?
Speaker 8: A corpulation?
Speaker 1: I like that.
Speaker 3: That's the move.
Speaker 1: Put it on your fucking character sheet. Give it thirty percent.
That's a move that the ranger has. Now I love it.
Oh yes, all right, and that's it. Rate and review
the podcast.
Speaker 10: That's it.
Speaker 1: Love you, see you next week.
