[2023/10/17 16:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: MidnightMinion Cyberstar was invited to the conversation.
[2023/10/17 16:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me opens NCs and notes and stuffs
[2023/10/17 16:12] Sonja Bikergrrl: so... Grrrrreeeeetings, adventurers, some players get epic battles with legendary monsters... you're still trapped in a book of fairy tales
[2023/10/17 16:12] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: oh, there's an actual book? That must be why the scene changes are so abrupt
[2023/10/17 16:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: hopefully you came up with a strategy or two for tonight :)
[2023/10/17 16:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: there was indeed... Dina was carrying the book "Grim Fairy Tales"
[2023/10/17 16:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: so, what now
[2023/10/17 16:16] Alicia Frakture: Leesha is going to knock on the door politely."Hey lady, truce no fighting this time. Just wanna talk."
[2023/10/17 16:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's a muffled voice from the other side of the door. "Is that nasty wolf with you?"
[2023/10/17 16:17] Alicia Frakture: He might be nearby, but I will make sure he stays out here. deal?
[2023/10/17 16:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: "Go ahead and talk, then!"
[2023/10/17 16:20] Alicia Frakture: Leesha motions for the other two to plan and figure stuff out as she says."First I am sorry i tried to kick my way in. sleep deprivation makes a gal like me grumpy, Still way out of line for me.
[2023/10/17 16:21] Sonja Bikergrrl: "Then it's a good job Sleeping Beauty is the last story, perhaps you'll have a snooze for a hundred years!"
[2023/10/17 16:21] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: Debben narrows her eyes at the old women. if she -knows- they're in a story.... hmmm. She'll let Leesha talk though
[2023/10/17 16:22] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (dinadrone): listens close to what is said and does not react yet
[2023/10/17 16:22] Alicia Frakture: Leesha pauses trying to keep her temper."Second, Can I ask why you don't like the wolf, aside from him being a wolf? I mean he is telling us that he loves Red, now if its romantic we gotta at least try and help if she feels the same.. if it is on a plate with a salad, prove it and we will fix it on this side."
[2023/10/17 16:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: "Well that's exactly it, isn't it? Little Red Riding Hood can't be in love with a wolf, and I can't allow it! Who ever heard of a wolf being a good suitor for a girl!"
[2023/10/17 16:24] Alicia Frakture: Who ever heard of a half orc who is a whiz in the kitchen ?
[2023/10/17 16:25] Alicia Frakture: You also realize in the world there are different beings everywhere. Love is love, plus having a wolf on your side could be beneficial."
[2023/10/17 16:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: "Ah, ah, ah! Never mind halves of orcs in kitchens! This whole thing is ridiculuous. He's a wolf, so he's an evil character, and therefore not suitable. What do you say to than, hmmm??"
[2023/10/17 16:26] Alicia Frakture: So you're saying evil can not change?
[2023/10/17 16:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20, roll under your charisma
[2023/10/17 16:27] Alicia Frakture: *I have charisma?!?!*
[2023/10/17 16:27] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: Debben ponders this, wondering if... perhaps if the wolf was no longer a wolf, the situation would be resolved.
[2023/10/17 16:28] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: (( yes Leesha, it's the stat you use for scaring people. ))
[2023/10/17 16:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: D'oh! A 13. "Exactly so. My mind is made up on this point, so no getting round that! Anyway, he's a wolf, how's he going to support Little Red Riding Hood?"
[2023/10/17 16:29] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "Now that you mention it, I'm curious as well."
[2023/10/17 16:30] Alicia Frakture: As a wolf he's a hunter, he could bring fresh meat, and seriously I saw atrio of bears with a rather nice home good table three beds roaring fire in the fireplace, pot of porridge cooking.
[2023/10/17 16:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20, charisma check, and you get a +2 bonus this time
[2023/10/17 16:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: Aced that one... There's a thoughtful pause, then a muttered "bloody bears indeed..." then, after another pause, "okay... I'll give you that one... but you have to admit, he's a wolf, and should stick with wolves. It's only the way of things."
[2023/10/17 16:33] Alicia Frakture: How does Red fit into this? not to push a button if you're her grandmother don't you want her happy?
[2023/10/17 16:34] Alicia Frakture: Leesha looks at the others pleadingly. she is running out of ideas.
[2023/10/17 16:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: "Of course I want her happy! She's human, humans go with humans, wolves go with wolves."
[2023/10/17 16:35] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "What's Red think about all this?"
[2023/10/17 16:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: "The silly girl says she's in love with that damn wolf, that's what she says!"
[2023/10/17 16:38] Alicia Frakture: Leesha ponders. So she loves him, and he loves her. and you want her happy right?
[2023/10/17 16:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's a pause and a long, drawn out "......rrriiiggghhttt...."
[2023/10/17 16:40] Alicia Frakture: LOcking her up doesn't make her happy and it might mkae her unhappy with you. what if a compromise could be reached. Until you get to know the being not the species they are supervised by you. get to know him instead of writing him off as a wolf. worst case scenario you have the broom
[2023/10/17 16:40] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "If only we could reach that fairy godmother we met earlier. I have an idea I'd like to run by her."
[2023/10/17 16:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: you get another charisma check and I think +3 bonus this time... roll the d20!
[2023/10/17 16:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: lol a 1
[2023/10/17 16:41] Alicia Frakture: a 1 +3 though
[2023/10/17 16:42] Alicia Frakture: *It's technically under... Tries to smile and look charming*
[2023/10/17 16:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: "alright, alright, I'll allow that point too, but you're forgetting, Little Red Riding Hood is vegetarian, and wolves eat meat! What do you say to that, eh? Eh?"
[2023/10/17 16:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: (Nat 1, though :P)
[2023/10/17 16:45] Alicia Frakture: Ummm if they are okay with each others choices a balance can be worked.
[2023/10/17 16:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20... another charisma check...
[2023/10/17 16:45] Alicia Frakture: At this point she's out of ideas
[2023/10/17 16:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: "Huh! A balance between being vegetarian and eating meat? Ridiculuous!" (And at this point, it's 2:2, a draw, but... there's one last point to argue...) "... besides, there's just no room here."
[2023/10/17 16:48] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "Wouldn't a wolf only take up like, a dog-sized amount of space?"
[2023/10/17 16:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's a faint sound, possibly of a hand slapping a forehead. "Yes... your point..?"
[2023/10/17 16:51] Alicia Frakture: Leesha pauses and looks at the wolf mouthing sorry."the point is he could sleep an a small space and help protect you, red and your home. I don't see other protection. Wolf and broom, unbeatable combination."
[2023/10/17 16:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's a long pause and a lot of muttering, finally a few choice swear words that you're sure sweet grannies should not know. Finally an exasperated "Fine... but mark my words, it'll end in tears." And with that, the door opens. A young girl in a red cape peers round the door, as the wolf pads about on the porch.
[2023/10/17 16:53] Alicia Frakture: As he does Leesha looks at him."Screw this up and I will have new wolf skin boots."
[2023/10/17 16:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: The wolf perks up and bounds to the house and pounces at Little Red Riding Hood, who catches him, and they spin round and round like they do in those afternoon movies. The grandma goes POOF and disappears, replaced by a pixie, hopefully to no ones' surprise. "Oooh! You did it, I was afraid you wouldn't, but you did it, you broke my curse!"
[2023/10/17 16:56] Alicia Frakture: I swear I was just going to apolgize and hope the smart ones came up with something
[2023/10/17 16:56] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "It was pretty clever, actually, Leesha."
[2023/10/17 16:57] Alicia Frakture: Leesha chuckles "I am staying in the background on the next one."
[2023/10/17 16:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: The whole view of the world gets swallowed up by an expanding pink heart, like a cheap movie maker transition effect, and once more you're at the crossroads with the woodcutter. Only one path remains now.
[2023/10/17 16:59] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: Debben checks what the crossed out paths look like at the moment.
[2023/10/17 16:59] Sonja Bikergrrl: And that'll be the cliffhanger for next time ^ ^
[2023/10/17 16:59] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: ♥
[2023/10/17 16:59] Alicia Frakture: ♥
[2023/10/17 16:59] Sonja Bikergrrl: Only "Rapunzel" on a signpost, the others crossed out.
[2023/10/17 17:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: think you managed to save the best... or worst? - for last.
[2023/10/17 17:00] Alicia Frakture: /me collapses in the chair.
[2023/10/17 17:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: Guess we find out next time!
[2023/10/17 17:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: I figured it'd be different with charisma checks there... I forgot you all have the exact same charisma scores :P
[2023/10/17 17:03] Alicia Frakture: Apologies did not mean to monopolize that
[2023/10/17 17:04] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: hehehehe
[2023/10/17 17:04] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: we all have the same charisma?
[2023/10/17 17:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: you took the glory... but could just as easily have been the blame :P
[2023/10/17 17:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: Laters! :)
