Reed cocks his head to the side a bit Well, depends on what one we're going to. Me 'ome town i visited a while back, prolly mor 'an 10 seasons, while the ol' vermin fort happened to have been gutted with fire, whatt ever one you care to visit, im not too partial to eather...Hehehe he pats his bag of newly found objects More that enough places teh 'ide about these southern areas	Reed	17:28:39 08/03/04 Tue

Valenze turns to Leyla. Lassie, whah do ye cum frah?	Valenze	20:21:55 08/06/04 Fri

Looks up at Valenze, toying idly with her dagger I was born up north, been wanderin' ever since.	Leyla	11:03:09 08/07/04 Sat

Well ain't it a small world, habitatually speaking! Our hulkin' fighter Valenze comes from the north too! The otter grins and claps the squirrel and fox on the shoulders. You two'll get along great! Or somethin'... He then looks at Reed. Um... Maybe the hometown'd be a better bet... Seein' as y'didn't gut it with fire... (NT)	Swift	20:44:08 08/07/04 Sat

Dirmby looks thoroughly put out. I thought we were going on a ship... And I thought I was going home... Sigh. Oh well. I guess I'll just keep on going... He looks at Reed. Which way exactly is it? And how far would you guess it is? (NT)	Dirmby	20:47:01 08/07/04 Sat
Rudd pats Dirmby on the back. It's alright mate, we'll be on a boat soon enough I'd wager. Can't really stand walking myself... (NT) -- Rudd, 10:16:42 08/09/04 Mon
Reed sticks a claw in his mouth then holds it to the wind. Pointing towards inland a bit, he hears faint sounds of a stream. Jus' a'h bit further, cullies. We gotta find tha' back enter-ence, heheheWe winks, then takes off through the undergrowth	Reed Streamline	10:23:08 08/09/04 Mon

Thistle whistles cheerfully, muttering about flowers and such So pretty...speaking of pretty, can I have my dress back, Fik? (NT)	Thistle the Odd	16:51:03 08/09/04 Mon

Valenze looks at Thistle in a perplexed manner. Ah thaught tha' weh lef' theh shroo beh'hin'!	Valenze	20:00:18 08/09/04 Mon

Did we? Thistle shrugs Well, he'd better keep my dress in nice shape until we get back there. (NT)	Thistle the Odd	10:44:13 08/10/04 Tue

Reed waits for the group to catch up. Hes rather nervous, and is twitching and moving alot. Down the stream about 300 yards is a large, crude outer fence, that the stream runs under	Reed	14:35:46 08/15/04 Sun

Swift claps a paw down on Reed's jumpy shoulder. Easy mate, easy... Whatcha so jumpy for? He thinks for a moment. Come t'think of it... You didn't mention why you're not too partial t'this place, I don' think... It ain't like ye gutted this place wid fire, so why so nervous, mate? (NT)	Swift	23:15:46 08/16/04 Mon

ooc: where is everyone?	Mickle	15:53:32 09/04/04 Sat
OOC: Not entirely sure actually... We kinda figure school might be to blame for the sudden silence. Most bad things can usually be traced back to school. -- Rudd, 12:38:43 09/07/04 Tue
ooc: true true, mate... me, I've got calculus, physics, golf, research, band, church, lifesavers, and other crap...so I can understand the delays...	Mickle	17:51:16 09/08/04 Wed
OOC: Golf? Seriously? Thats a bit odd... is it mini or regular? -- Rudd, 19:23:50 09/08/04 Wed
ooc: regular, mate... I travel 45 minutes everyday after school, play 2.5 hours of golf, then drive 45 min back... it's insane...	Mickle	20:14:41 09/09/04 Thu
OOC: Frightning.. So I guess no ones even checking this board anymore eh? -- Rudd, 11:52:36 09/11/04 Sat
((I'm here...))	Leyla	17:52:13 09/11/04 Sat
OOC: Heh, ok then. Lets take a stab at a bic post.. BIC: Reed? Buddy? Rudd raises his eyebrows at Swift. Too afraid to respond I see, well I spoze we'll just have to find out when we arrive eh? Looks like we'e gettin close too. He points at a small line of smoke rising into the sky off in the distance. -- Rudd, 09:55:50 09/12/04 Sun
Valenze sets his axe more comfortably on his shoulder. Ah seh weh trah teh mek et theh 'afah sunsaht.	Valenze	19:50:21 09/12/04 Sun

ooc: in case anyone's checking this board anymore... I can't post on the Ibeile Quest anymore...it won't accept posts from me...	Mickle	20:10:27 09/21/04 Tue

OOC: Well, I know I haven't been checking cause everyone darted off... But I'm back again, and ready to be active! BIC: Swift grins at the rising smoke. Well, we can just leave Reed here then, if 'e's too gutted t'move or say anythin'. Chances are we won't be killed on sight if he ain't with us anyway. So let's go! With that, the otter twirls his saber and begins marching along, humming along a little ditty he creates as he goes. (NT)	Swift	14:38:03 09/22/04 Wed

ooc: tis nice to see ye again, Swift! I was startin to think ye'd abandoned us! BIC: Valenze looks at the frightened Reed, then grins. Ef ye're oonaible te wolk, Ah'd beh 'appeh te carreh ye, mah wee laddie!	Valenze	20:03:50 09/23/04 Thu
Well, if we're just gonna leave him here... It'd be polite to leave a note or somethin first though. Rudd pokes his javelin into the ground and writes "Reed, gone off to find town, follow if you regain use of your legs." Alright, that oughtta do. He rushes off to catch up to Swift. -- Rudd, 12:16:35 09/24/04 Fri
OOC: Hahah, best note ever, Rudd. BIC: Swift grins at Rudd. An' 'opefully Reed can read. I dunno, 'e's a swell feller, but I wouldn't be surprised if 'e couldn't read. Well, even if Reed could read I doubt he'd be able to, seein' as you write like a dibbun on a sugar rush. (NT)	Swift	13:51:33 09/24/04 Fri
OOC: Heh, thanks. BIC: Oh an that means a whole lot comin from you mate! You're literary skills are about on par with a one eyed, wheelchair-ridden, deaf an blind hedgehog who suffered from occasional paralasis of his good writin paw, which isn't quite as good as his bad writin paw! Rudd claps his hands together. Did well there, didn't I? (NT) -- Rudd, 18:59:45 09/24/04 Fri
Swift pokes Rudd in the chest. If by "well" you mean "dark an' dank an' slimy an' unappealin' as a," then yeah, you did well. Moron for brains. 'Ow much further y'reckons the town is, by the by? (NT)	Swift	22:15:48 09/27/04 Mon

A tree quivers not too far up ahead as a familiar voice floats back to the company Y' think y'could hurry up back there, 'stead of squabblin'? I don't think this tree branch's gonna hold me any longe-- crash Ow... An ottermaid falls out of the tree onto her head, its of leaves and twigs stuck in her fur and a broken branch by her side Eheh... looks like I was right, huh? She hauls herself off and proceeds to pick a large leaf out of her ear. ((Inside))	Pearl the Retern-ed	11:22:23 09/29/04 Wed

(OCC: Sorry to interupt, but a note to say the short one shalt return, but doesn't want to mess up your plot flow. Er, I vanished back on the island Pearl, so somehow I don't think I could have 'walked ahead'. I'll just have to wait until you hit the town and have a back-plot. Until then I shall read the archives religiously...)	Kit the Orful Ottermaid	12:44:17 09/29/04 Wed
OOC: We have no plot right now, actually. We're struggling to keep things going, because people keep disappearing... So you could have an entrance like Pearl's, Kit. Or have Kit like, sneak up on the group or something and be all "raah! here I am!" and we could be all, "oh my you scared us!" and then we'll all laugh and yeah. Okay, so yeah, inside for the actual In Character post. (INSIDE). -- Swift, 14:43:46 09/29/04 Wed
OCC: Rightio. Will back-plot on the fly. BIC: A scared voice comes from a figure running towards the town midst the trees. Aunt Ella! AUNT ELLA! There's a scary rigid otter stood out 'ere! 'Ee ain't movin'!	Kit	14:06:00 09/30/04 Thu

Brushes dirt off her tunic stiffly 'Couse I'm Pearly, who else would I be? M'not the Evil Green Fuzzlie of Doom, he's still in my pocket. Checks to make sure. Where've I been? Ahead of you. I thought I was behind you, and I kept going down thisaways until I realized you hadn't passed this way yet. So I stopped here an' have been waitin' oh so patiently for you to catch up. An' I was in the tree so I could see a bit farther. 'Least I don't climb them for recreation. Woah- where's Fik? And Reed? And Kit? (NT)	Pearl the REO	16:19:51 09/30/04 Thu
Rudd grins proudly. Oh Fik? We seem to have uh, lost him.. Poor guy was wearin a dress at the time too. He falls silent at this point to keep from falling over and giggling like a little schoolgirl. (NT) -- Rudd, 17:08:56 09/30/04 Thu
Stands slackjawed for a moment, then shuts her mouth Well... then... am I s'posed t' be surprised at that?	Pearl	18:59:53 09/30/04 Thu

Valenze shrugs and looks at Rudd. Ah dinnae seh wot's funneh abou' a lad wearin' a kilt...	Valenze	19:58:29 09/30/04 Thu

It' not the dress so much as the left behind part... and the hesitation on "lost"... that /doesn't/ surprise me. ((That's a bit contradictory, isn't it? Oh well. Let Pearl make a fool of herself if she wants to)) (NT)	Pearl	20:04:11 09/30/04 Thu

Swift lets out a loud cough. Ahem, I hate to interrupt, but can we ferget that liddle moron for the moment? There seems ter be some commotion goin' on. If my ears don't decieve me, an' they 'ardly ever does, there's summat 'bout a big ol' scary ol' rigid otter a standin' ahead o' us. It's got some liddle feller frightened outta its mind. I think we should go check this out. With that, he begins running semi-crouched toward the town, wondering what in blazes is going on up ahead. (NT)	Swift	08:51:30 10/01/04 Fri
Rudd scratches his head. We sure it aint Reed? He wasn't movin much when we left him... Y'know, he was all rigid an whatnot... He turns around and squints in Reed's direction. (NT) -- Rudd, 16:12:25 10/01/04 Fri AUNT ELLAAAA! An ottermaid runs into Rudd and bounces backwards to land on the ground with a brief squeal. (NT) -- Kit, 11:22:27 10/02/04 Sat
Snickers at Rudd Aunt "Ellarudd", I think yore niece needs y'for somethin'! (NT)	Pearl	11:32:14 10/02/04 Sat

Rudd?! Erm... Her confusion is over-ridden by fright Look, there's a scary otter back there who ain't movin'! She realises who she's speaking to and, scrambling to her footpaws, comments flatly. Yer've got somethin' t'do with it, 'aven't ye.	Kit	06:53:58 10/03/04 Sun
Rudd makes an attempt at covering his surprise. We may very well have somethin to do with it, specially if it turns out to be Reed or someone sharing his family tree. Now who's this Aunt Ella? -- Rudd, 09:45:53 10/03/04 Sun Me Aunt. She looks at him like he's a fish short of a full catch. Y'know, as in a sister o'yer pa or ma. A relative. Family. -- Kit, 09:57:32 10/03/04 Sun
Kit! Bouncebounce There y' are, speak of the dev- er, angel. Weeeelll... sorry to break up this discussion on names for family relations, but we either do one of two things- go back an' fetch Reed so he don't scare any more poor trav'lers, or we keep on an' leave him as planned. Whatcha gonna do? (NT)	Pearl	10:09:45 10/03/04 Sun
Rudd glares at Kit. Course I know what an aunt is you little dimwit, I meant I didn't know this Ella, and I was rather surprised she was around here. He glances around, half expecting her to spring out from behind a nearby tree. Anyway, we'd best keep goin, Reed'll catch up. He'd scare poor trav'lers whether he was movin or not. Actually it's probly best to have him still if we're tryin to make him gentil lookin. Rudd begins to wander towards the smoke in the distance, a puzzled look on his face. (NT) -- Rudd, 16:17:03 10/03/04 Sun
Waves madly at Pearl, taking the devil comment as a compliment, and then trots forward to catch up with Rudd. She lives in the town an' I've, erm, been stayin' with 'er. Consdierin' she is MY relative after all, yer'd probably be better off not knowin' 'er really...	Kit	09:53:54 10/04/04 Mon
Rudd raises his eyebrows and points ahead. This town up here? The one we're headed to? Well I hate to break it too ya Kit, but you might be related to Reed. He shudders involuntarily and pats Kit on the back. It's alright mate, you can't help it. -- Rudd, 15:58:37 10/04/04 Mon Her face freezes in a mask of fear. She takes a deep breath and manages to stammer: Y-yer mean th-the scary otter back th-there? -- Kit, 10:14:31 10/05/04 Tue Rudd looks rather confused. Umm, probably yes. You do know Reed don't you? -- Rudd, 15:21:15 10/05/04 Tue Still scared I'm related to THAT?! -- Kit, 11:17:18 10/06/04 Wed Rudd nods. Quite possibly, it is his home town we're headed to. -- Rudd, 15:32:02 10/06/04 Wed
Swift shakes his head and throws an arm around Kit. Aye, see, we think this be 'is 'ometown, or a town 'e founded... Though I must say, if ye comes from this town, it must be a lot more, gentler than Reed made it out to be... I 'ad in me 'ead a place allus smokin' an' bangin' loud like an' rabblyrousin', but yore decent stuff, Kit, so... Oi! Waitaminute... He squints his eyes at Kit. Now, last I checked, you was on Plumbry Islands wid us, an' then ye disappeared... What 'appened, eh? (NT)	Swift	15:38:18 10/06/04 Wed
Kit inspects the ground Well, erm, rabblyrousin' 'appened an', errr, mumble...She takes a deep breath Lookin' for otter Holt mumble random big otter-type kinda sent me back 'omemutter 'cause I was too little mutter mumble Aunt Ella mutter Pa mumble. She stares up at him wide-eyed I really REALLY could be related to Reed? (NT) -- Kit, 04:07:25 10/07/04 Thu Alarmed Kit, what you don't know can't hurt you, an' in this case what y'do know just might! Shudders (NT) -- Pearl, 16:22:52 10/08/04 Fri
Dirmby strolls up and looks at Kit. Well miz, Swift said it's a possibility.. I dunno how true it is.. But if you're from the same town, it's quite pos'ble you two are related... Oh, sorry, didn' interduce myself t'you newcomers. The mouse holds out a paw to Kit and a paw to Pearl. Name of Dirmby Whitlock Pembrook. Sailor by trade, but currently shipless. Excuse me. He takes off his wooden clogs and empties them of sand, then pulls them back on, muttering. I've been achin' t'get that mess outta me clogs... (NT)	Dirmby	16:52:35 10/08/04 Fri
Oh corks...She shakes her head to clear the scary thoughts, then gins at Dirmby.Kitrinalin Rowan matey, Kit by name kitt by nature. She blinks Nothin' worse than a shipless sailor matey. She nods her head towards Swift Just don't turn to rum an' I 'ope you get onboard a good'un soon. (NT) -- Kit, 07:50:16 10/10/04 Sun Rudd elbows Swift in the ribs. I do believe you've just been insulted mate, can't be shirkin on a challenge now. Folks might question the leadership around here, I dunno bout you but I dont like bein questioned. I've got too much to hide. His eyes shift left and right suspiciously. (NT) -- Rudd, 16:59:22 10/12/04 Tue Her ears twitch and she peers at Rudd curiously Questions? I've got a question fer y'Rudd. Why're y'goin' to this town anyway? Why're in this neck o'the woods? (NT) -- Kit, 06:39:30 10/13/04 Wed Well I do believe if anybodies to be defensive here it should be you Kit. While we're just plannin on visiting this area, to stock up on stockupables, you've been livin here for quite some time! If this happens to be a bad "neck o'the woods" then what are you doin here? (NT) -- Rudd, 15:44:12 10/13/04 Wed
