Session 2 of Pine Falls

[2008-09-26 19:21:51] <DrakeNero> Goddamn nWoD
[2008-09-26 19:21:53] <DrakeNero> Not. Enough. Points.
[2008-09-26 19:21:57] <Fu> It has begun.
[2008-09-26 19:22:09] <Khayin> What were you trying to buy?
[2008-09-26 19:22:44] <DrakeNero> everything.
[2008-09-26 19:22:45] <DrakeNero> =b
[2008-09-26 19:22:47] <Khayin> Heh heh
[2008-09-26 19:23:08] <DrakeNero> After making an Exalted character with no XP just a few hours before, I am point starved
[2008-09-26 19:23:24] <Khayin> XD
[2008-09-26 19:23:27] <Khayin> If you guys think it's going to be too hard to reach your character vision with the points allotted, we can work something out later.
[2008-09-26 19:23:38] <Khayin> But, if you're just Exalted-spoiled, you get the violin. ;)
[2008-09-26 19:24:03] <Khayin> But, yeah -- if it's too restrictive, please let me know.
[2008-09-26 19:24:05] * Fu takes out a cello.
[2008-09-26 19:24:05] <DrakeNero> No actually he's just fine
[2008-09-26 19:24:06] <Khayin> I'm flexible.
[2008-09-26 19:24:15] <DrakeNero> For the way the rules work, etc, he's fine
[2008-09-26 19:24:17] <DrakeNero> I am just whining
[2008-09-26 19:24:20] <Khayin> Okey doke
[2008-09-26 19:24:27] <DrakeNero> whiny whiny whiny whine.
[2008-09-26 19:24:32] <Khayin> *Puts on ST Helmet*
[2008-09-26 19:24:35] <Fu> Bitch, moan, complain.
[2008-09-26 19:24:49] * DrakeNero wails on the helmet
[2008-09-26 19:25:11] <Khayin> (Glad I learned to have this thing! :D)
[2008-09-26 19:25:13] <Khayin> All right...
[2008-09-26 19:25:32] <Khayin> The librarians were... strange.
[2008-09-26 19:25:35] <DrakeNero> (when you put it on, it's a challenge and I have to pound on it)
[2008-09-26 19:26:11] <Fu> And Fu is going outside... and freezes just as he steps out.
[2008-09-26 19:26:29] <Fu> "Did... either of you check if that girl had been breathing?"
[2008-09-26 19:26:52] <Mala> "Plenty of air around."
[2008-09-26 19:27:15] <DrakeNero> "No."
[2008-09-26 19:27:20] <DrakeNero> "Why?"
[2008-09-26 19:27:27] * DrakeNero is not a paramedic, dammit
[2008-09-26 19:27:39] <Fu> "Remember how I reacted to a small dose of cyanide?"
[2008-09-26 19:27:50] <Fu> "How I looked like I couldn't breathe, after a small bite?"
[2008-09-26 19:27:54] <DrakeNero> "Yes."
[2008-09-26 19:27:56] <DrakeNero> "Oh, shit."
[2008-09-26 19:28:00] <Fu> He adjusts his glasses and nods.
[2008-09-26 19:28:05] <Mala> "She wasn't jumping around choking, if that's what you're asking. She was just lying there."
[2008-09-26 19:28:12] <Fu> "No luck going to her now." He gives Mala a look.
[2008-09-26 19:28:28] <Fu> "Mala, that's because she was dead by them."
[2008-09-26 19:28:31] <Fu> (then0
[2008-09-26 19:28:45] <Mala> ".....oh."
[2008-09-26 19:28:47] <Fu> "She took a much larger dosage than I did."
[2008-09-26 19:29:04] <DrakeNero> He makes an "mm" noise and puts his hands in his pockets
[2008-09-26 19:29:14] <Fu> He sighs, taking out a pair of car keys. "We need to go to the store and pick up some peaches."
[2008-09-26 19:29:31] <DrakeNero> "Peaches?"
[2008-09-26 19:29:35] * Fu does not look like he is going to enjoy this.
[2008-09-26 19:29:44] <Fu> "We are visiting someone who can help."
[2008-09-26 19:29:54] <Fu> "Or at least give some insight."
[2008-09-26 19:30:00] <Fu> "But oh dear /god/ she is creepy."
[2008-09-26 19:30:03] <DrakeNero> "Alright then."
[2008-09-26 19:30:09] <DrakeNero> "You should explain on the way there."
[2008-09-26 19:30:20] <Fu> "Of course." He gestures for them to follow.
[2008-09-26 19:30:41] <Khayin> (Has Mala remember being in an automobile ever?)
[2008-09-26 19:30:45] <Khayin> (Has = Does)
[2008-09-26 19:31:02] <Mala> (No, but she knows that Peoples sometimes get in big metal things that move.)
[2008-09-26 19:31:17] <Fu> (Also, Fu's car looks like an older model that has been very, very well-kept)
[2008-09-26 19:31:49] <Fu> "Okay, I haven't hung around Court, I have been running about getting used to the area, which means... I have made friends with some of the fae not too interested in the Courts."
[2008-09-26 19:32:16] <Khayin> As the three of you walk to the parking lot, you notice an ambulance present and a large group of people around, though they do not appear to be moving very fast.
[2008-09-26 19:32:17] <DrakeNero> "Interesting."
[2008-09-26 19:32:25] <DrakeNero> (Drake has Summer Mantle 2, fyi)
[2008-09-26 19:32:32] <Fu> He speaks soft enough to make sure no one else can hear, shaking his head at the ambulance.
[2008-09-26 19:32:40] <Mala> (autumn 1, the uselessest mantle~
[2008-09-26 19:32:47] <Fu> "Well, one of them is an Oracle named Miss Peach." (Southern Court 1)
[2008-09-26 19:32:52] <Khayin> (Got it. Remind me if that should make a difference at any point, if you could)
[2008-09-26 19:33:44] <Fu> "I visit her once a week with something I make just to give her company... And then promptly get the hell out of there."
[2008-09-26 19:34:21] <DrakeNero> He makes a little snorty laugh
[2008-09-26 19:34:31] <Fu> Once he gets to his car, he unlocks all four doors, and gestures for them to pick as he goes for the driver's door. "You think it's funny now, but just wait."
[2008-09-26 19:35:29] <Mala> Mala watches the others open the doors... hmmm...oh, these things! She fiddles with a door handle until she gets it open, then climbs in.
[2008-09-26 19:35:52] * DrakeNero rides shotgun.
[2008-09-26 19:36:02] * DrakeNero doesn't call it, just marches up to the passenger door and gets in.
[2008-09-26 19:36:03] <Fu> "I need to remember to make gingerbread at some point, but right now..." He starts the car once everyone is buckled in (and checking to make sure Mala is buckled), "I think it rude to not bring her anything."
[2008-09-26 19:36:13] <Khayin> It takes a bit for the defroster to work its magic, but once the windshields are clear, the path to Miss Peach's house is smooth-sailing.
[2008-09-26 19:36:39] <Fu> He does stop to get peaches.
[2008-09-26 19:36:47] <Fu> And chocolate cookies.
[2008-09-26 19:37:22] <Mala> Buckled? >.> Oh, those things. Right. :x
[2008-09-26 19:37:29] <Khayin> There is a grocery store with good produce not far from the destination. The place is mostly empty this time of morning, with only one or two people cleaning or stocking.
[2008-09-26 19:37:56] <Fu> Fu turns off the engine and gets out. "I'll be fast."
[2008-09-26 19:38:08] <DrakeNero> "We'll wait."
[2008-09-26 19:38:12] <Fu> "And for the love of god, don't fuck with the radio. >:( "
[2008-09-26 19:38:15] * DrakeNero fiddles with his Blackberry in the meantime.
[2008-09-26 19:38:22] <DrakeNero> "whatever."
[2008-09-26 19:38:30] <Fu> (It would be playing classical. Damn dork)
[2008-09-26 19:38:39] <Khayin> There is a grocery store with good produce not far from the destination. The place is mostly empty this time of morning, with only one or two people cleaning or stocking.
[2008-09-26 19:38:52] <Khayin> (Ugh. Fuck)
[2008-09-26 19:39:09] <Fu> He quickly gets in and looks for some peaches, making sure he can't smell /almond/ on the flesh.
[2008-09-26 19:39:11] <Mala> "Don't fu... doesn't that word mean to..." >___>;
[2008-09-26 19:39:30] <Khayin> (XD)
[2008-09-26 19:39:30] <DrakeNero> "It means to mess with."
[2008-09-26 19:39:30] <DrakeNero> "but yes, that too."
[2008-09-26 19:39:35] <Mala> "....oh."
[2008-09-26 19:39:40] <Mala> "Well that's confusing."
[2008-09-26 19:39:53] <DrakeNero> 'It can also be used as a form of punctation, depending on what part of the country you're from."
[2008-09-26 19:39:57] <DrakeNero> *punctuation.
[2008-09-26 19:40:13] <Mala> "Really! o.o "
[2008-09-26 19:40:16] <Khayin> From the road and the parking lot, you've noticed that the town has been rather... sparse. It's almost as if the town has gone quiet since this morning. Like how the librarians suddenly shut up when you came by.
[2008-09-26 19:40:33] <Fu> The peaches, and oreos. >_> Fu is working as fast as he can, he is getting creeped out.
[2008-09-26 19:40:36] <DrakeNero> "Mhm."
[2008-09-26 19:41:01] <DrakeNero> If Drake is spooked, he's staying remarkably calm about it. Though he does keep impulsively checking the rear view by simply flicking his gaze up at it.
[2008-09-26 19:42:09] <Khayin> An old woman passes by the view of the mirror with a shopping cart. In the shopping cart is a typewriter and nothing else.
[2008-09-26 19:42:16] <DrakeNero> o.O
[2008-09-26 19:42:17] <Khayin> Strange morning.
[2008-09-26 19:42:51] <Fu> Fu is just... Composure 3, so he doesn't look as badly nervous.
[2008-09-26 19:42:54] <DrakeNero> Indeed.
[2008-09-26 19:42:56] <Khayin> It's hard to see anything beyond the parking lot in this fog.
[2008-09-26 19:43:11] <Fu> He gets to the cashier, smiling cheerfully as he pays.
[2008-09-26 19:43:26] <Khayin> The checkout is relatively uneventful. The girl doesn't even look at you, simply pointing to the readout of your total.
[2008-09-26 19:44:09] <Fu> "Thank you, good bye." Once that's done, he hurries back, sighing.
[2008-09-26 19:44:16] <DrakeNero> It's the fog that's more disconcerting than typewriters in shopping carts.
[2008-09-26 19:44:32] <Fu> "This." He starts the car, "Is getting really creepy."
[2008-09-26 19:44:54] <Fu> (One moment...)
[2008-09-26 19:45:31] <Fu> (Okay)
[2008-09-26 19:45:42] <DrakeNero> "Mhm."
[2008-09-26 19:45:44] <Khayin> It is a bit odd, yes. Maybe not for this time of year, but it is thicker than usual and lasting pretty long into the morning.
[2008-09-26 19:45:54] * Fu is driving carefully.
[2008-09-26 19:45:54] <DrakeNero> Still fiddling with the Blackberry.
[2008-09-26 19:46:42] <Fu> "At least this is fog." :S
[2008-09-26 19:46:47] <Khayin> A few blocks away, Fu turns his car into a cozy little suburban neighborhood toward the end of town. The fog seems less noticeable here and your feelings of weirdness are somewhat dispelled by the sight of children playing.
[2008-09-26 19:47:52] <Fu> "Also, just as a warning..." He parks in front of a house, "Don't bend. She'll take a mile from an inch."
[2008-09-26 19:48:00] * Fu reddens somewhat.
[2008-09-26 19:48:12] <DrakeNero> "...what?"
[2008-09-26 19:48:17] <Mala> "How do you fit a mile into an inch? o.o "
[2008-09-26 19:48:19] * DrakeNero took that entirely the wrong way.
[2008-09-26 19:48:35] * Fu turns redder. "She is low clarity. Don't ask me how she does."
[2008-09-26 19:48:46] <Khayin> Going further down the street, you start to notice older houses and darker spots as the neighborhood extends further into the lonely woods.
[2008-09-26 19:49:09] <Khayin> The trees loom large here, but they don't appear sinister. A few wave at Mala.
[2008-09-26 19:49:17] <Mala> Mala waves back. :D
[2008-09-26 19:49:52] <Fu> "..." The Fairest looks oddly at Mala though the rearview, but then again, he bows to artwork, who is he to judge?
[2008-09-26 19:50:16] * DrakeNero does NOT sleep on a pile of expensive things and certainly doesn't OCD count his DVDs before sleeping at night
[2008-09-26 19:50:18] <Khayin> Then the car arrives at the end of the street. There, separated by a good half acre on all sides from the other houses is a quaint little cottage.
[2008-09-26 19:50:21] <DrakeNero> >.>
[2008-09-26 19:50:25] <Fu> "I think the most important thing is she has a weaker grip on reality than any of us."
[2008-09-26 19:50:34] <Fu> "Ah, we are here." His blush is gone.
[2008-09-26 19:50:39] <DrakeNero> "Really?" he glances back at Mala.
[2008-09-26 19:50:47] <Fu> "Trust me."
[2008-09-26 19:51:06] <Fu> "I'm not disturbed by Mala." He parks and turns off the car.
[2008-09-26 19:51:08] <Mala> "Hey!" D: "I know what's going on. I just won't know what's going on with me..." >_>
[2008-09-26 19:51:16] <Mala> (won't/don't)
[2008-09-26 19:51:22] <Fu> At that, Fu smiles. "Exactly."
[2008-09-26 19:51:46] <Fu> "She said my /name/ tasted of oranges when I first visited." >_>
[2008-09-26 19:52:05] * Fu takes the bag with him, carries it gently.
[2008-09-26 19:52:09] <Khayin> The cottage is small from the front, but seems to extend further in the back behind the fence. It looks old, but... you'd say "sweet."
[2008-09-26 19:52:24] <Khayin> All the windows have curtains preventing you from peering inward.
[2008-09-26 19:52:35] <Mala> "...nah. You're not oranges."
[2008-09-26 19:52:45] <Fu> "More of tangerines if anything."
[2008-09-26 19:52:55] <Fu> "Or peaches. =_="
[2008-09-26 19:53:13] * Fu goes for the door with a sigh, and knocks on it lightly.
[2008-09-26 19:53:33] * Mala fiddles with her seat belt buckle for a minute before getting it loose, then pokes at the door handle until the car door opens, then gets out. Whew. Figured that out. x.x
[2008-09-26 19:53:38] <DrakeNero> "Dragonfruit."
[2008-09-26 19:54:19] <Mala> "I don't think it's fair for me to play this game. o.o "
[2008-09-26 19:54:20] <Khayin> There is silence for a moment after Fu knocks. The sound of a ball bouncing down the street draws your attention briefly to the children up the hill who stare down at you with suspense.
[2008-09-26 19:54:31] * Fu waves brightly.
[2008-09-26 19:54:57] <Fu> "Miss Peach, it's me, Ryan, and I brought company."
[2008-09-26 19:55:41] <Khayin> A moment later, the unlatching of locks can be heard, and then the door opens, a single chain preventing the door from being opened far. You can't see very much of the person inside, but you notice pale blond hair and suspicious eyes behind glasses.
[2008-09-26 19:56:10] <Fu> "Hello, Miss Peach." He takes out a peach. "Take a guess."
[2008-09-26 19:56:16] <Khayin> "... Ryan? My, I wasn't expecting you until tomorrow. How pleasant..."
[2008-09-26 19:57:15] <Khayin> She closes the door a moment to disengage the chain and opens it again, revealing a fairly handsome woman in her late forties wearing a bathrobe and holding a book to her chest.
[2008-09-26 19:57:26] <Fu> "Unfortunately, my colleagues and I need some help. I'll visit tomorrow too, but today is business."
[2008-09-26 19:57:41] <Khayin> "... hello, my dears." She regards Drake and Mala (mostly Drake) with a smile.
[2008-09-26 19:58:19] * Fu bows and gives her the bag. "Peaches and oreos. May we please come in to speak? I think the children are staring, and I'd like to give formal introductions."
[2008-09-26 19:58:53] <Khayin> The older woman almost chuckles when peering into the bag and waves the three of you inside, closing the door behind you.
[2008-09-26 19:59:37] * Fu makes a very quiet gulp. Almost unnoticable.
[2008-09-26 19:59:38] * DrakeNero steps in.
[2008-09-26 19:59:50] * Fu goes in as well, after Mala and Drake enter.
[2008-09-26 19:59:57] <Khayin> Getting closer, you can see how very faded she appears -- even her clothing seems to lose its color just by being worn.
[2008-09-26 20:00:00] * Mala follows. >.>
[2008-09-26 20:00:33] <Khayin> She sniffs after Mala for a moment, squinting at her briefly before leading you all into her parlor.
[2008-09-26 20:01:08] <Khayin> The quaint outer appearance only hinted at the rustic interior you see now. The house appears like something out of the fifties.
[2008-09-26 20:01:27] <Khayin> "Would you darlings like some tea?"
[2008-09-26 20:01:37] <Fu> "Ah, yes please."
[2008-09-26 20:01:49] * DrakeNero looks at Fu with an 'is it safe' glance
[2008-09-26 20:01:55] <Mala> "Uhm. Okay. >.> "
[2008-09-26 20:02:00] * Fu nods slightly.
[2008-09-26 20:02:16] <Khayin> She grins happily and disappears into the kitchen, leaving the three of you alone for a few moments.
[2008-09-26 20:02:20] <DrakeNero> "Yes, please."
[2008-09-26 20:03:02] * Fu stands beside a chair, waiting for the others to sit first.
[2008-09-26 20:04:04] * DrakeNero sits
[2008-09-26 20:04:23] <Mala> Mala's still standing. >.>
[2008-09-26 20:04:33] <Khayin> Only a few moments later, she returns with a tray topped with three steaming cups and some cut fruit.
[2008-09-26 20:04:57] <Fu> "Mala, please, sit? >.>"
[2008-09-26 20:05:13] <Khayin> There was not enough time to brew tea.
[2008-09-26 20:05:19] <Mala> "Hm? Uh, okay. <_<"
[2008-09-26 20:05:23] * Mala sits. >.>
[2008-09-26 20:05:48] <Khayin> "Today seemed very black," she says almost questioningly. "But I found myself putting milk in and now it looks cloudy as well."
[2008-09-26 20:05:59] * Fu sits down as well, seemingly relaxed, but then again, social situation + fairest.
[2008-09-26 20:06:14] <Khayin> Sure enough, the tea she places before you is normal black tea with some milk swirling about in it.
[2008-09-26 20:07:03] <Khayin> Two small plates hold sliced apples. One holds sliced pear.
[2008-09-26 20:07:25] <Mala> o.o
[2008-09-26 20:07:28] <Fu> "Thank you. Seeing a mortal died from a poisoned apple..." He takes a cup and takes a sip. "The day did start out a bit black."
[2008-09-26 20:07:39] <Mala> Mala takes the one with the pears. <_<
[2008-09-26 20:07:44] * DrakeNero is always black
[2008-09-26 20:08:32] <Fu> "But I was curious to know if you could think of anywhere a mortal could find such bitter fruit?"
[2008-09-26 20:08:44] <Khayin> After putting the tray down, she wanders to a seat next to Drake and sits, leaning a smidge too close for comfort. "Poison apple, eh?"
[2008-09-26 20:09:06] <Mala> "It wasn't me. o.o "
[2008-09-26 20:09:22] <Fu> "Yes. One that I thought enchanted, and well..."
[2008-09-26 20:09:23] * DrakeNero sips his tea and doesn't really pay attention to Miss Peach.
[2008-09-26 20:09:30] <DrakeNero> well to her closeness, at least.
[2008-09-26 20:09:35] <Fu> "My fortune made itself known." He sighs.
[2008-09-26 20:10:37] <Fu> "I don't go into the science, but where could a mortal find such an apple?"
[2008-09-26 20:10:46] <Khayin> "Hm... well, I get my apples from the grocer. Especially when young Warren is working." She grins lasciviously. "Hm... where would you think to look for bitter apples, my dear?" she says, looking straight at Mala.
[2008-09-26 20:10:58] <Mala> o_o
[2008-09-26 20:12:16] <Khayin> "... of course, the apples aren't really the problem, are they? It's autumn, after all -- everything is just going bad, bad, bad."
[2008-09-26 20:12:48] * Fu glances at Drake with a shrug.
[2008-09-26 20:13:11] <Khayin> "This season, I think it's best to stock up on meat. I think there will be plenty before the winter comes."
[2008-09-26 20:14:41] <Khayin> "There was, um..." She seems lost in thought for a moment. "Something red downwind from the orchard a while ago."
[2008-09-26 20:15:12] <Khayin> "Then... I saw some hair tangled in a hedge row."
[2008-09-26 20:16:10] * Fu coughs gently. "What color?"
[2008-09-26 20:16:42] <Khayin> "... mm... gold. Like this lovely young man's heart." She casts a glance at Drake.
[2008-09-26 20:17:07] <Khayin> "If the apple is done, then I think we'll see blood on the thorns by the time it gets dark before dinner. ^_^"
[2008-09-26 20:17:07] <DrakeNero> He raises his eyebrows slightly.
[2008-09-26 20:17:14] <DrakeNero> Heart of gold his ass.
[2008-09-26 20:17:27] * Fu chuckles.
[2008-09-26 20:17:37] <Fu> "You know, gold is a metal, a cold, unfeeling metal."
[2008-09-26 20:18:11] * DrakeNero hmphs.
[2008-09-26 20:18:31] <Khayin> "Mm." She nods, apparently not taking your meaning. "Winter is, too. Best find your fruits before then, or else there will be more meat than we can stock."
[2008-09-26 20:19:10] * Fu takes a sip of his tea and looks at Mala.
[2008-09-26 20:19:18] <Mala> >_>
[2008-09-26 20:19:51] <Khayin> She looks around a bit. "... did I say something wrong?"
[2008-09-26 20:20:20] <DrakeNero> "Delicious tea."
[2008-09-26 20:20:37] <Fu> "Mala seems the focus, that's all."
[2008-09-26 20:21:05] <Khayin> "Oh, why thank you, precious." She grins, placing her hand on his knee. "I'll make your favorite next time."
[2008-09-26 20:21:12] <Mala> "I'm not a ficus. o.o"
[2008-09-26 20:21:24] <DrakeNero> "Thank you."
[2008-09-26 20:21:36] <Khayin> For a moment, just stares at Mala.
[2008-09-26 20:21:36] <Fu> "Focus, not ficus." ^_^
[2008-09-26 20:21:46] <Khayin> Then she starts giggling.
[2008-09-26 20:22:04] <Khayin> "Oh... oh, that's so good... hee hee hee! Ficus... hee!"
[2008-09-26 20:22:10] <Mala> "Oh." >.>
[2008-09-26 20:22:49] <Khayin> "... oh, goodness." She wipes a tear from her eye. "I'm sorry -- I forget my manners when I have company."
[2008-09-26 20:23:16] <Fu> "You do deserve a good laugh. Everyone does." He tilts his head.
[2008-09-26 20:23:28] <Khayin> "But, dears, if there are people dying from bad apples, then you should be careful."
[2008-09-26 20:23:50] <Khayin> "One bad apple could poison the whole bushel."
[2008-09-26 20:23:58] <Mala> <_<
[2008-09-26 20:24:15] <Khayin> "That's why I only shop organic. :D"
[2008-09-26 20:24:33] <Fu> "Yes, but apple pips have poison in their hearts."
[2008-09-26 20:24:40] <Khayin> "..."
[2008-09-26 20:24:57] <Khayin> She seems somewhat perturbed by Fu's comment.
[2008-09-26 20:25:05] <Mala> D:
[2008-09-26 20:25:05] <Khayin> She is silent for a few moments.
[2008-09-26 20:25:10] <Fu> "And the apple that killed the girl..." He tilts his head. "Had none."
[2008-09-26 20:25:25] <Khayin> "... no... hm..."
[2008-09-26 20:25:45] <Khayin> "... that's funny. I thought he would be normal."
[2008-09-26 20:26:37] <Khayin> Miss Peach rises from her seat and starts to pick up after everyone, though it appears as if her mind is elsewhere as she goes through the motions.
[2008-09-26 20:26:59] * Fu starts up to help her automatically. "Do you need any help?"
[2008-09-26 20:27:47] <Khayin> She shakes her head, taking everything and moving toward the kitchen again. She stops at the end of the parlor and pauses for a moment before turning back to you.
[2008-09-26 20:28:26] <Khayin> "I... don't think I can help right now. I'm not sure if I'm remembering everything correctly yet."
[2008-09-26 20:29:17] <Fu> "You gave some clues. It's a great help." ^_^
[2008-09-26 20:30:05] <Khayin> She smiles a bit, but her expression sours around the time you notice a bit of smoke coming from the kitchen.
[2008-09-26 20:30:18] <Fu> "Oh dear."
[2008-09-26 20:30:19] <Khayin> "Oh... dear, I have to get back to my baking."
[2008-09-26 20:30:28] <Mala> o.o
[2008-09-26 20:30:39] <Fu> o.o;
[2008-09-26 20:30:48] <Khayin> Hurriedly she ushers you to the door. "I'm sorry dears, I need to eat as well."
[2008-09-26 20:31:10] <DrakeNero> "Thank you for your time."
[2008-09-26 20:31:25] <Fu> "Indeed. ^_^ I still will visit tomorrow."
[2008-09-26 20:31:33] <Khayin> She is about to turn her attention to the kitchen, before she pauses once more and turns to Drake.
[2008-09-26 20:31:41] * Fu checks his watch to see how much time he has before class.
[2008-09-26 20:32:06] <Khayin> With a clearly confounded expression, she asks, "Why is it that people buy summer homes in the winter?"
[2008-09-26 20:32:24] <DrakeNero> "Comfort for later."
[2008-09-26 20:33:13] <Khayin> Not entirely understanding your answer, she remains perplexed until the smoke alarm finally goes off and she panics a bit, shooing you out the door.
[2008-09-26 20:33:22] * Fu gets out.
[2008-09-26 20:33:39] <Mala> ".... you know I'm not made of poison... right?" >__>
[2008-09-26 20:34:05] <Fu> "We know you aren't," Fu smiles, "But ah... Miss Peach has her ways."

[2008-09-26 20:37:12] * Fu frowns and picks it up. "I'll drop it off by the first house."
[2008-09-26 20:37:28] <Fu> "That... at least went well. Better than a few times."
[2008-09-26 20:39:00] <Khayin> (Mala, please roll Wits + Survival)

[2008-09-26 20:39:53] <Khayin> Something she said made you think about the forest.
[2008-09-26 20:40:58] <Khayin> "Downwind of the orchard," she said. You know that place pretty well and the wind blows off the hills toward the south. That area is mostly woods, but is fenced off. Apparently, someone owns that area and you aren't supposed to even walk there.
[2008-09-26 20:41:21] <Mala> "Hmmm. She mentioned the woods..." >.>
[2008-09-26 20:41:34] <Fu> "Meh, one without much grip on reality." He opens the doors. "I'm willing to drive there."
[2008-09-26 20:42:27] <Mala> "I haven't been back there for a while." >.>
[2008-09-26 20:42:44] <Fu> "Always return to the beginning."
[2008-09-26 20:42:51] <Fu> ".. .What direction is it?"
[2008-09-26 20:43:04] <Fu> "It's not northeast, is it?"
[2008-09-26 20:43:41] <Khayin> West and south. Mostly west.
[2008-09-26 20:43:57] <Mala> Mala points. "It's that way."
[2008-09-26 20:44:28] <Fu> If he had been worried around Miss Peach, mentioning the northeast gets a look of true fear for a moment, that relaxes after the mention of the opposite direction.
[2008-09-26 20:44:37] <Fu> "Alright, let's go. :D"
[2008-09-26 20:45:33] * DrakeNero nods
[2008-09-26 20:46:02] <Khayin> Drake is curious, of course, but to much time today can't be spent out dawdling -- there is work to be done and some of Dean Merriwick's "accounts" are just awkward enough to take some time to settle. You can afford a couple hours, perhaps.
[2008-09-26 20:46:31] * DrakeNero will pull out his laptop and work in the car.
[2008-09-26 20:46:49] <Khayin> (I don't want to dictate you, though -- feel free to ignore that as you like. I'm just giving a time frame of the day)

[2008-09-26 20:48:01] <Khayin> (Oh, ho... give me a Wits + Politics roll, then)

[2008-09-26 20:49:26] <Khayin> Drake had managed to take a quick look at the donor list while in the dean's office, so some of the info wasn't immediately obvious then.
[2008-09-26 20:49:50] <Khayin> You see now that there actually is a private donor here for once.
[2008-09-26 20:50:15] <Khayin> Pretty wealthy, too, judging from the size of the donation.
[2008-09-26 20:50:28] <Khayin> Nice to know they aren't ALL shady.
[2008-09-26 20:50:30] <DrakeNero> How about that.
[2008-09-26 20:51:33] <Khayin> One Archibald Castor -- no occupation that you can see.
[2008-09-26 20:51:43] <DrakeNero> Odd.
[2008-09-26 20:51:58] <DrakeNero> This doesn't seem like the sort of place for old money, does it?
[2008-09-26 20:52:28] <Khayin> You know the town has old money families in it, but they are pretty rare and you are well-aware of them.
[2008-09-26 20:52:32] <Khayin> But for old money to move in?
[2008-09-26 20:52:40] <Khayin> That is unusual.
[2008-09-26 20:52:49] <DrakeNero> Indeed.
[2008-09-26 20:53:27] <Khayin> That's what you see on a cursory inspection of his account, though. Nothing terribly deep unless you intend to dig.
[2008-09-26 20:53:42] <Khayin> In the meantime, Mala guides Fu along the paths that run the perimeter of Pine Falls.
[2008-09-26 20:54:06] <Fu> (Back)
[2008-09-26 20:54:17] <Mala> It's been a while since Mala went back to the orchard. o.o
[2008-09-26 20:54:43] <Fu> Fu tries his best listening, but there is one thing he keeps asking about. Cardinal directions.
[2008-09-26 20:55:03] <Fu> Not left or right. North, west, east, or south.
[2008-09-26 20:55:04] <Khayin> Most of the area outside the town is forest and most of the forest is private property. It comes as no surprise, then, that the area Mala indicates turns out to be fenced off. You can see the orchard from here and with the sunlight pouring into the clearing, it almost seems like a bastion of warmth in the foggy forest.
[2008-09-26 20:56:09] <Fu> "Well, well, well..."
[2008-09-26 20:57:12] <Khayin> The trees on the other side of the fence always looked so strange to Mala. They seemed bigger. Meaner.
[2008-09-26 20:57:45] <Mala> Mala looks defiantly over at them. >:|

[2008-09-26 21:04:33] * Fu walks over briskly.
[2008-09-26 21:05:12] <Mala> "Hm? o.o "
[2008-09-26 21:06:01] <Khayin> Walking over to the bushes, Drake notices something small and yellow stuck within the brush.
[2008-09-26 21:06:38] <DrakeNero> "There's something stuck in there."
[2008-09-26 21:06:44] <DrakeNero> "Your hands are smaller than mine, pull it out."
[2008-09-26 21:07:31] <Khayin> (Whose hands?)
[2008-09-26 21:07:31] <DrakeNero> (Fu's)
[2008-09-26 21:07:31] <DrakeNero> (I assumed he'd walked over with me)

[2008-09-26 21:07:42] <Khayin> (Ah)

[2008-09-26 21:08:28] <Fu> "Five bucks says that I'll end up getting nicked to hell." He kneels down and grabs.
[2008-09-26 21:08:48] <DrakeNero> "I"ll buy you bandaids with those five bucks."
[2008-09-26 21:08:55] <Fu> (I have a time limit tonight. =_= Apparently 10, but I'll try to stay on until later)
[2008-09-26 21:10:09] <Fu> "I'm just stating my luck."
[2008-09-26 21:10:12] <Khayin> Fu reaches into the brush carefully and fishes about for a bit before wrapping his fingers around a... plastic strip? He pulls and emerges with a length of yellow tape, torn at both ends. On it reads, "TION - POLIC"
[2008-09-26 21:10:33] <Fu> "Huh."
[2008-09-26 21:10:40] <Fu> "Caution, Police."
[2008-09-26 21:10:46] <Fu> "I would presume."
[2008-09-26 21:11:10] <DrakeNero> "I'd guess as much."
[2008-09-26 21:11:55] <Khayin> (Wits + Survival, please Mala)
[2008-09-26 21:12:03] <Fu> "Hm..." He looks up. "Well, sounds like we'll have more research..."

[2008-09-26 21:15:57] <Khayin> As she glares at the trees, Mala notices out of the corner of her eye that the grass seems disturbed a short distance away on the other side of the fence. It's hard to see since the autumn leaves cover it pretty well, but you are more familiar in places like this.
[2008-09-26 21:16:36] <Mala> Mala points. "Hey."
[2008-09-26 21:16:51] <Fu> Fu gets out and looks at where she points.

[2008-09-26 21:17:07] * Fu checks as well.
[2008-09-26 21:17:55] <Khayin> Sort of difficult to tell, but you can kind of tell. There is a place where the ground is bare, as if the grass had been ripped away in two or three chunks.

[2008-09-26 21:21:03] <Khayin> The grass means very little to Drake and Fu, but Mala can tell that something was digging or clawing at the ground there. From this distance and with all the leaves covering it, though, it's hard to tell what else.
[2008-09-26 21:21:27] <Fu> Fu gets closer to check.
[2008-09-26 21:21:35] <Khayin> As they stare, Fu notices something -- or someone -- moving behind a tree somewhere to his left.
[2008-09-26 21:21:37] <Mala> "Something was digging here. Or scratching. o.o "
[2008-09-26 21:21:58] <DrakeNero> "Hm."

[2008-09-26 21:23:42] <Fu> (And then can I do the Investigation + Intelligence too?)
[2008-09-26 21:24:23] <Khayin> (Wait on that one for a bit)
[2008-09-26 21:24:56] <Fu> (I only have about a half hour, remember. Thanks to my dad. >_<)
[2008-09-26 21:24:58] <Khayin> The figure seems to dart back behind the tree very quickly, but doesn't appear to go anywhere else
[2008-09-26 21:25:07] <Khayin> (Understood)
[2008-09-26 21:25:27] <Fu> Fu smiles charmingly. "Come now, we won't hurt you at all. You just started me. ^_^"
[2008-09-26 21:25:41] <Fu> (Oh wait, striking looks, I get another dice on presence)
[2008-09-26 21:25:53] <Fu> (Meh, I'll remember it next time0
[2008-09-26 21:26:04] <Khayin> (Not totally relevant just yet, anyway. Don't worry)
[2008-09-26 21:26:17] <DrakeNero> (afk for a sec, sorry)
[2008-09-26 21:26:27] <Khayin> (Okey doke)
[2008-09-26 21:27:33] <Fu> (startled)
[2008-09-26 21:27:52] <Khayin> The figure does not move for a few long moments, but then slowly emerges, bashfully revealing antlers and then soft, brown hair, followed by big, doe eyes.
[2008-09-26 21:28:13] <DrakeNero> (ok back)
[2008-09-26 21:28:21] * Fu smiles and keeps still. "Aaah."
[2008-09-26 21:28:47] <Fu> (Does it look like she is new?)
[2008-09-26 21:28:58] <Fu> (Or newly escaped?)
[2008-09-26 21:29:11] <Khayin> The antlered person behind the tree says nothing, staring at all of you from a distance.
[2008-09-26 21:29:13] <Mala> Mala waves. :D
[2008-09-26 21:29:24] * DrakeNero looks handsome and imposing.
[2008-09-26 21:29:54] <Fu> "Please, are you okay?"
[2008-09-26 21:30:03] <Khayin> (Intelligence + Socialize, anyone trying to remember her face from the court meetings or whatnot)
[2008-09-26 21:30:15] <Mala> (heh... )

[2008-09-26 21:32:16] <Khayin> None of you remember any antlers when the crown was passed over the Equinox. Either this one saw fit not to attend the changing of leadership ceremony, or she is new.
[2008-09-26 21:33:17] <Fu> Fu frowns with some worry. "Please, come closer. We won't hurt you."
[2008-09-26 21:33:18] <Khayin> The girl slowly waves back to Mala and carefully trudges out from behind the tree, her hands behind her back.
[2008-09-26 21:33:37] <Khayin> She doesn't appear more than twelve years old and is still very nervous.
[2008-09-26 21:33:40] * Fu smiles. "What is your name, miss?"
[2008-09-26 21:34:47] <Khayin> "... S-Scamper Skip. I didn't see anything."
[2008-09-26 21:35:32] <Fu> "My name is Fu, this is Mala, and Drake. It's okay you didn't see anything. We are trying to figure out things too."
[2008-09-26 21:36:28] <Khayin> Scamper Skip says nothing, turning her gaze downward and fidgeting. "I don't know anything."
[2008-09-26 21:37:01] <Fu> "It's alright. Will you need a ride into town?"
[2008-09-26 21:37:47] <Khayin> She shakes her head, no. Occasionally glancing to her left toward the fence.
[2008-09-26 21:38:00] * Fu looks in the same direction. "What's there?"
[2008-09-26 21:39:01] <Fu> (I'll hush up so people can think and do the investigation rolls...)
[2008-09-26 21:39:41] <DrakeNero> (oh hey I have Inv 1)
[2008-09-26 21:39:44] <Khayin> (Oh, right. Intelligence + Investigation, if you'd intended to deduce anything from the scene)
[2008-09-26 21:39:52] <DrakeNero> !em 3
[2008-09-26 21:39:53] <Lioness> DrakeNero (3), 10, 5, 5, Successes : 1
[2008-09-26 21:39:56] <Khayin> (Mala gets a bonus die, if she tries)

[2008-09-26 21:40:31] <Khayin> (Reroll the 10)

[2008-09-26 21:40:43] <Lioness> Mala (1), 3, Successes : 0
[2008-09-26 21:41:16] <Khayin> Skip instantly darts her eyes the other direction. "I d-don't know. I didn't see anything."
[2008-09-26 21:42:17] <Fu> "It's okay." He says with a smile. "But why were you here right now?"
[2008-09-26 21:43:32] <Khayin> After considering the terrain for a bit, Drake and Mala conclude that the patches in the ground were likely clawed. They're shaped in streaks and might have been made by a person.
[2008-09-26 21:44:01] <Mala> "Do you know who did these? o.o "
[2008-09-26 21:44:02] <DrakeNero> Hm.
[2008-09-26 21:44:08] <Khayin> (Fu, roll Presence + Persuasion and take that Striking Looks bonus)

[2008-09-26 21:45:12] <Khayin> (Lioness lies! XD)
[2008-09-26 21:46:00] <Khayin> "... no reason," she says, absently fussing with a lock of hair.
[2008-09-26 21:47:06] <Fu> "Oh?" Fu tilts his head. "I know that my friend Mala was from around here. Are you?"
[2008-09-26 21:48:48] <Khayin> "No!" she yells suddenly, backing off and concealing herself behind the tree again. "I'm not from here! I didn't see anything! I don't want to go here!"
[2008-09-26 21:49:50] <Fu> "Then why are you here?" Fu says gently, looking pained.
[2008-09-26 21:50:01] <Fu> "I could help you out of here, if you want..."
[2008-09-26 21:50:50] <Khayin> "... no..." She almost sobs. "I just... wanted an apple..."
[2008-09-26 21:50:59] <Fu> "... Oh boy."
[2008-09-26 21:51:56] <Khayin> (I'm sorry... Mala, was that question aimed at Skip? I totally didn't think about that)
[2008-09-26 21:52:19] <Mala> (Yeah, but if she's flipping out now Mala totally understands ^^; )
[2008-09-26 21:53:16] <Khayin> After a moment, she notices where Mala had indicated and she stares a bit...
[2008-09-26 21:53:32] <Fu> "M-miss Scamper Skip," He clears his throat, and shuts up after she looks away.
[2008-09-26 21:54:23] <Khayin> Then, her eyes widen and she almost squeaks before bounding off much, much faster than any of you could hope to follow, almost hopping with each stride as she vanishes into the mist.
[2008-09-26 21:54:38] <DrakeNero> o.O
[2008-09-26 21:54:40] * Fu facepalms, and sighs.
[2008-09-26 21:54:53] <Fu> "I wonder what the girl saw..."
[2008-09-26 21:56:02] <Khayin> (Okay, you can make that Investigation roll, Fu)
[2008-09-26 21:56:14] <Fu> !em 5
[2008-09-26 21:56:15] <Lioness> Fu (5), 6, 5, 8, 6, 9, Successes : 2
[2008-09-26 21:56:23] <Khayin> (And we'll wrap up in a sec, here)
[2008-09-26 21:56:27] <Mala> "If I'd had any apples I would have given her one..."
[2008-09-26 21:57:03] <DrakeNero> (phone, brb)
[2008-09-26 21:58:05] <Khayin> Upon closer examination, Fu comes to much the same conclusion Drake and Mala seemed to. Clawing along the ground. Why?
[2008-09-26 21:58:26] <Khayin> Miss Peach said there was something red here. What did this have to do with the apples?
[2008-09-26 21:58:53] <Fu> (My dad's calling, so...)
[2008-09-26 21:59:04] <Khayin> (Okay, we're about done.)
[2008-09-26 21:59:10] <Khayin> Everything is all mysteeeerious!
[2008-09-26 21:59:12] <Khayin> ... 'n shit
[2008-09-26 21:59:18] <Khayin> 2xp, everyone
[2008-09-26 21:59:18] <Fu> (I'll post logs tomorrow)
[2008-09-26 21:59:21] <Fu> Okay.
[2008-09-26 21:59:27] <Mala> <3
[2008-09-26 21:59:32] <DrakeNero> XD
[2008-09-26 21:59:33] <DrakeNero> <3
[2008-09-26 21:59:33] <Mala> Poor Skip. I wanna hug her.
[2008-09-26 21:59:33] <DrakeNero> thanks for the game
[2008-09-26 21:59:46] <Fu> !
[2008-09-26 21:59:48] <Fu> PERFECT!
[2008-09-26 22:00:02] <Fu> >D You'll find out.
[2008-09-26 22:00:12] <Fu> Fu lights up. "We'll find her again."
[2008-09-26 22:00:15] =-= DrakeNero is now known as Seras
[2008-09-26 22:00:20] <Fu> "I just need a chat with a friend...
[2008-09-26 22:00:25] =-= YOU are now known as Astra
[2008-09-26 22:00:26] <Khayin> Thanks to you guys! Hope it doesn't seem too railroady at the moment?
[2008-09-26 22:00:29] <Mala> (oh, that was very not in character. X3 )
[2008-09-26 22:00:35] =-= Mala is now known as Konpeito
[2008-09-26 22:00:37] <Konpeito> S'awesome. :3
