OOC Chat

If you can keep from metagaming I don't mind if you read the other thread!

If we prefer to have action continuing for all of us, works for me to have time passage a bit flexible here, with Yuna, Idella, and John arriving just as Wilde and Van Ness are at their current point in the conversation - I mean, we've looked around the grounds a bit, things like that, so that would have taken a bit of time.

Yeah we are still early in the adventure so I'm trying to push things a long a little bit faster lol.

When it's better for you that I shift to posting more action, less chat, can for sure do that. Just let me know. Want this to work for you, be good for you too (I'm LOVING playing with y'all).

As any screenwriter can tell you, it is best to combine action and dialogue! You can have your chat while also searching the house you are supposed to inspect for clues lol.

That’s a good way to have details overlooked! Clues in funny colors and bolded, maybe?

I'm on a full-on work trip starting tomorrow (Sunday 17) until end of the week (Friday 22). I hope I can still post, but please don't wait for me.

How nice of my co-players to take the hits for old Charles! Yuna will surely have her sanity rattled by the diary, and the safe is surely rigged to explode.

Charles… an ally?

I like how both you and Charles clearly know WAY more about the Cthulhu mythos and CoC than Barrington or I..!

I don't think Barrington (or I!) are particularly focused on sanity or the kinds of things that might be dangerous in this world, so the naive it-sounds-like-very-risky things Barrington is doing require no acting on my part for their naievity heh.

How devilish haha Yuna certainly wouldn't expect to be so affected by reading a book! How preposterous!

On a work trip, away from today and back on Saturday. May be very slow to post during this time. Just wanted to give y'all a heads up.

Thanks for letting us know. Have a fun trip!

Talk me through the particulars of this book then. Charles has to spend a full 24 hours with it, in the hopes of being able to read it? Or peruse it for a few hours?

It will take several hours of reading to understand the one spell. It's not hard to understand, just takes time to piece it together. You could use it by the next day if you spend the night or some of today and some of tomorrow reading it.

I leave for a week of work travel today, will make me slower to reply. Wanted to give you a heads up on that.

Thanks for the heads up!

So, the d4 I rolled @BeardHare is simply the amount of sanity I lost! I assume that I automatically cast the spell having spent the magic and also the sanity!

Ah gotcha! Thanks for the explanation :)

Hope someone has got a gun! These things usually end well…

Watching Barrington fail again and again... I'm surprised how sad I feel watching him slide into what feels like inevitable doom! Some strong hopeless horror vibes here!
