Re: [Cairo] Swift and Sure
The stamping- and clacking?- of feet heralded the arrival of the first responders. The door was flung open without ceremony or hesitation. Three hell hounds- gwyllgi- charged in. It was the second hound that triggered the thunderwave trap. It spasmed and flew straight up. Or it would have if it didn...

Re: [Texas] Chapter 2.1: You Shouldn't Have Come Back
Only concern remained in the gunslinger’s expression as she watched Eryl’s internal struggle spill into the world. It was reflex that made a steadying hand dart out and catch the abjurer by the elbow. Seeing her steady, the grip was just as quickly relinquished. “S’okay,” Jane reassured her before t...

Re: [Texas] Chapter 2.1: You Shouldn't Have Come Back
Jane managed to keep her withdrawal natural in appearance; just a hand returning to the silverware to begin eating; definitely nothing else. The look she shot Eryl was much less natural on her: a slurry of curiosity, confusion, wariness, and concern. Eleanor was wearing a similar expression, hold th...

Re: Chapter 2.1: The Siege of Safeholme
Time Slowed for a Surreal Moment This was not a magical dilation of time, but a biological one as both the menagerie and their attackers sensed the criticality of the moment. The scene was frenetic, hellish. Gathered at Safeholme in that frozen flash of time were some of the world's greatest mages ...

Re: [Austria] Chapter 2.1 - The Sage of Doors & His Lovely Enchantress
At the Head of the Table Opa Krieger smiled silently as Katerina delivered her gifts, then turned to Kitsueki and nodded. "Oh, I'm certain. I may even do you one better, young lady." There was a mischievous twinkle in his aged, crinkled eyes as he said it. Then, to the young Michizaki he ...

Re: [Texas] Chapter 2.1: You Shouldn't Have Come Back
Eleanor Smith smiled wanly at Eryl, who had once again stumbled into another unmarked emotional minefield. "Once upon a time, they'da been full up an one short with all o ye here..." She sighed heavily, expelling the negative emotions. "But yes. My husband, he was real good with his h...

Re: [Cairo] Swift and Sure
Jane was about to jest, "Why, ye gon change outfits real quick?" She changed her mind when she saw the wicked edge of Eryl's wand and fixed her eyes on the door... until she heard what she was doing. "Didja jus..." She didn't need to finish the question: the answer was standing r...

Re: Chapter 2.1: The Siege of Safeholme
The Ravaged Festival Grounds Professor Caxton did indeed catch his fledgling student. Tanuki's feral grin went unwitnessed, tucked as she was behind the shield. Their landing jarred the Japanese weaver, but caused no harm. The lightning barely marred the Vialshield. The AXETONNE's retaliatory strik...

Re: [Cairo] Swift and Sure
Ophelia snorted derisively and folded her arms. "No, we don't read trash rags ." She looked to her female counterpart, silently begging her aid. The mousy woman came forward, placing a hand on Eryl's shoulder. "We have it on good authority that the Menagerie's Gunslinger is in fact no...

Re: [Austria] Chapter 2.1 - The Sage of Doors & His Lovely Enchantress
Coming Down the Stairs Lady allowed herself a small smile as she followed the children back down the stairs. Her eyes traced the photos on the stairwell a second time, pressing pieces of the littlest Krieger's puzzle into place in her mind. In the Kitchen She lingered at the step between living roo...
