Day 69 // Public Channel

She said I'm supposed to be patrol... So if you're in charge of patrol let me know what I should actually be doing.

[You know, besides setting up a tent, because that's not going to happen. The voice has a slight lisp, the speaker unknown as he doesn't bother to introduce himself.]

Also, why are we here?

Comments

[osteothropy]

Uh, usually the fact that they are completely kicking your ass will give it away.

[psionichax0r]

Wouldn't it be kind of impossible to get anyone away at that point?

[osteothropy]

Gotta get lucky sometimes, right?

[But this is something he should probably be real about. No reason not to go into it over the network. People can always stand the refresher.]

But usually seeing a fae is an immediate crisis situation, yeah. Our only luck with getting away from a direct confrontation with them in the past has been ducking away while something distracts them... either a third party, or one of our own taking the bullet for the rest of the group.

That's why getting away fast is the priority.

Fae are usually sort of human looking, with pointed ears, but there's a lot of variation, too. If you have any magical senses, you'll be able to spot just how powerful they are at a glance.

[He still can't hear the word magic without snrking a little, but he manages to do it off radio at least. It would be stupid to argue it wasn't really after contracting to do the bidding of some kind of super wizard.]

...If we die we still get what we signed on for, right?

[He probably should have thought of that before signing...]

[osteothropy]

If it's something that can be done posthumously, I think so, yeah.

[psionichax0r]

[Small sigh of relief.]

Good.

[Then he only has to worry about getting other people to safety. If he did a shit job at that she might decide he hadn't been working hard enough or something dumb like that.]

I'll just push everyone else away and hope they get the idea.

[It's on them if they can't take a hint after that.]
