"Somebody fell asleep at their post? Who knows? You've got surveillance cameras. You tell me."

The dead draconian couldn't weigh on Cole's conscience right now. His gun trailed slowly from the body to Jakor before finding itself again in its holster. Cole pointed to the ladder.

"After you."

"Yes...I do." Jakor looks as though the thought never occurred to him. "Next order of business, after your issue of course."

OOC:
What are y'all doing up there? I'm gonna pause Cole and Jakor's ascent for a second to let the situation develop for a little.

Jericho keeps his hand on Flitter while PROWL works, though the sound of another door opening makes him turn to look.

P.R.O.W.L. stows the orb in a body compartment, then turns towards the rising wall section.

Jakor's Office
As the wall rises two Hobgoblins with a stretcher walk forward. Then they stop, staring at everybody with a flabbergasted expression. "Wha-what's going on here?" The one in the front says, eyes glued to Flitter with definite fear.

"Maybe we should just back away slowly?" You barely hear the one in the rear suggest.

"YOU!!!!" Before the silence creates a complete social faux pas the accusing screech pierces everyone's eardrums, and between the legs is a goblin holding a doctor's bag. A goblin who most certainly remembers everyone from their earlier business deal. "They're SNEAKIN' about! I knew we couldn't trust em'!! What'd you do to Boss?!!" His whining continues...

What now?
Down The Ladder

Jakor takes his first step up, sighing as the both of you hear some kind of high pitched noises, like an upset cat. "Never get any peace around here..." Jakor grumbles.

"We've done nothing to him," says Jericho. He checks the bindings on Flitter to see if they can be easily removed.

"Drake things down there are dealt with... for now," Cole said after coming up the ladder and seeing the two Hobgoblins. "And you two can calm down. We're helping Jakor. Right, Jakor? We're doing a better job than your own people, it seems."

The goblin stomps his foot, like a child entering a temper tantrum. "Noo! No you lie! Scheming sniveling liars!"

Jakor looks one second away from face palming, over-viewing the scene with bewilderment. "All of you stop talking. Of course they're helping, can't believe-"

"Boss?" One of the newly arrived hobgoblin speaks up. Jakor narrows his eyes, but doesn't stop them. "Sorry boss, but uh...we've never seen this lot before. How do you know them?"

"What?" Replies Jakor incredulously. "You ask me? Idiots, they're from....uh..." Jakor's mind at work, he fails to come up with an answer.

The goblin starts to grin.
OOC:
Somebody do something.

"We had business to discuss, before we were interrupted by the draconids," says Jericho. "I didn't realize that Jakor needed your permission to speak to us."

He looks at Jakor. "I take it you've handled the draconids? Perhaps now that your bosses are here, we can figure out why they've given us fake money?"
OOC:
Can Flitter's bindings be removed?

OOC:
I'm gonna need a check for this please. Probably deception or persuasion.
Apr 15, 2020 4:22 pm
OOC:
Adding Deception or Persuasion, as the modifier's the same.

"That's not the way associates are supposed to treat each other, and we're still being helpful to you now even after that. We don't want hard feelings, just explanations."
OOC:
Helping for advantage on that roll?
Apr 15, 2020 8:15 pm
OOC:
@Cole:...I guess.

I forgot to answer Jericho: Yes, DC 18 lockpicking or DC 21 athletics.
Apr 15, 2020 8:22 pm
OOC:
If Advantage allowed.

Rolls

Deception/Persuasion - (1d20)

The hobgoblins share a look of uncertainty, before one pipes up. "Look, we all believe in compromises yeah? How about you leave and we can get this whole situation under control tomorrow?"

Jakor takes a defiant step forward. "Now hold on-"

He gets cut off again. "Jakor you don't look right, we remember what happened the last time there was an 'incident', you need to recover."

The goblin isn't having none of this. "Idiots! All of you!" He turns tail and begins to make an exit.
OOC:
If anyone would like to make a perception/investigation roll now would be an appropriate time to do so.

Cole sighed, watching the goblin go.

PROWL watches impassively, observing and calculating scenarios and outcomes. Also, gauging if anyone has noticed the orb is missing.

Perception - (1d20+10)

(9) + 10 = 19

Insight - (1d20+7)

Jericho maintains his focus on his spell, hoping that Jakor's influence can avert or delay what looks to be a bloody conflict.
