Subject: Jadris Story
Author: Jadris [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 15:33:50 09/03/03 Wed Leans back Okay, my story is one that takes part a long time ago on the shores of the mainland. Ah, the WEstrn Shores, that was what they were called, just south from the mountain of this fire lizard. One time, a black ship was spotted off the coast line, and my father Thraldune was told to take the women and children to the saftey of Redwall Abbey while the warriors held them off. Our tribe's warriors were cut down easily and the rats caught up to us. My father was slain. My mother and the children fell as well, I was the only one lucky enough to escape. But I had no where to run. I was eventually captured within two days or so and taken as galley slave. then, after many laborous days of sailing, there was a nasty storm that tore our ship to bits. Again, I was the lone surviror and I wahed up onto these shores and have been here since. If you ask it of me, I can lead you to the otter tribe!

Reed grabs Jadris, pulls him up and shoves slightly towards the forest No time to waste old fool, lead on mate! -- Reed Streamline, 15:45:09 09/03/03 Wed Rudd scratches his his head while he gets up to follow Jadris. Had we mentioned the otter holt? I can't remember. I don't think we did. Did we? -- Rudd, 18:10:28 09/03/03 Wed Mickle grins as he stands up to follow Jadris. of course we did, Rudd. Swift mentioned it several times, in fact. -- mickle, 19:01:11 09/03/03 Wed That he did, and I'm looking forward to seeing such a collection of Lutra lutra here! Thistle almost lazily rises from her chair and grins (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 05:41:20 09/04/03 Thu Swift swaggers along. Y'never answered my big question... Why are you out here, mate? Why not bunk with said otter holt, hm? Seems peculiar to be livin' off here on your own. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 09:08:25 09/04/03 Thu Well, it could have to do with the fact he's a hermit. Hermits tend to live on their own. Otherwise they wouldn't be hermits. (NT) -- Fik, 16:33:28 09/04/03 Thu Mickle grins. ye know...he's right...even considered bein a hermit meself...but then I figured that I was just too handsome to keep to meself... -- Mickle, 18:57:11 09/04/03 Thu Oh, we wouldn' want t'waste your good looks on fours walls of a 'ermit's hut matey. I'm sure t'walls 'ave got better things t'do with their time. -- Kit, 10:22:34 09/05/03 Fri finalblade gets up and starts walking with themsome food is what i need and a good nights sleep i think thats what everybody needs eh? (NT) -- Finalblade, 10:46:41 09/05/03 Fri Ark slowly gets up and starts walking in the back of everyone playing with his sling (NT) -- Ark, 10:48:07 09/05/03 Fri* Hmm... I don't think we'll be getting much sleep, lads. Not unless we camp here and go to the holt in the morning. If we go now, there's likely gonna be a grand feast in Rudd's honor, and no chance to sleep, see. So, I have a proposition, lads: Either we go to the holt now, unrested and weary, but with the prospect of a glorious feast ahead, or we camp here with Jadris, have a meager meal, but get well rested, then head to the Holt so as we can party our filthy black guts out. Which'll it be, me hearties? (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 16:20:30 09/05/03 Fri i say camp looks at swiftand you what do you think (NT) -- Finalblade, 16:36:00 09/05/03 Fri Reed perks up, being an imsomnic he choses the first one Thar shoul' beh a grand ol' feast eh?....Co'n' mates, letuz go teh the 'olt -- Reed, 17:06:20 09/05/03 Fri Swift stares off. I'd love a feast... But I like to make an entrance too... I'd rather rest and show up sharpish. We show up early in the morning, then have a day long feast... Yeah... I'd rather camp now. But let's hear other suggestions. (NT) -- Swift, 17:52:59 09/05/03 Fri Well, it would make sense to sleep. After all, you do better in everything when you've a good night's rest. That and a good meal in the morning help. nods slowly, then leans against the wall, almost boredly Well, all of you, decide already! Honestly, it's so trying wasting my belligerent brilliance upon you! Or is beaming a better word? Yes, since belligerent means warlike... (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 18:27:43 09/05/03 Fri Mickle slumps down against a tree in response. I think that we should just try to get some sleep. with that, he closes his eyes and begins dozing. -- Mickle, 19:09:47 09/05/03 Fri Swift looks about. So's we got any other opinions, mates? I'd say 'tis safe to say we'll be campin'... (NT) -- Swift, 15:20:00 09/06/03 Sat well as i said sleep and i think we all agree for once gives a little chuckle under his breath and slumps on a tree and goes to sleep (NT) -- Finalblade, 15:48:05 09/06/03 Sat yes i say slee'p to much bett'er goes into the woods and comes back with a bunch of leafs need somth'ing to slee'p on??? (NT) -- ark, 15:49:18 09/06/03 Sat Swift looks at the two. Right then. For once, I won't chastise you two. It appears the majority of us want to wait. See you all in the morning. He walks off and climbs up into a tree to sleep. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 11:39:36 09/07/03 Sun Rudd lies down next to some bushes. Well, the holt never was prepared fo much of anything... So don't expect a feast right away. There may be one for lunch or dinner but I don't know about breakfast. (NT) -- Rudd, 12:06:14 09/07/03 Sun Thistle scurries up a tree and finds a nice, mossy crook to cuddle up in...and wait for someone to ask her about her slightly odd sleeping habit. But hey, it's comfortable and it works Mumrmfmf...might wake up with a crick in m' neck...'oo cares...sta'bwies...ssschnnrrmmfff....zzzzzz..... (NT) -- Thistle the Mousquirrel, 13:31:31 09/07/03 Sun Swift looks down at Thistle from his higher branch. You're in my tree, love. I hope you don't mind if I fall outta me perch on top of you in the night... He lowers his hat over his eyes and sits still. (NT) -- Swift, 14:54:11 09/07/03 Sun Ark who is doing somthing in the woods comes out and says see you in the morning and goes into the trees (NT) -- Ark, 15:50:49 09/07/03 Sun finalblade gets up i can't sleep here goes into the woods and comes out with some branches and makes a hameck and goes to sleep (NT) -- Finalblade, 15:53:18 09/07/03 Sun Mickle opens one eye and looks after ark and finalblade. how's a beast supposed to get any sleep wid all that ruckus? -- Mickle, 18:27:19 09/07/03 Sun Swift lets out a grunt and yells. SHUT UP ALREADY! M'TRYIN' FOR ME BEAUTY SLEEP! He wraps himself up tighter in his jacket. He tries to stabilize himself, as he really doesn't want to fall down onto Thistle and crush her during the night. (NT) -- Swiftstream the Treedweller, 09:37:11 09/08/03 Mon Reed paces, pulling out a flask and drinking from it Soon enough he passes out, after a couple of flasks* -- Reed Streamline, 17:29:56 09/08/03 Mon ..zzZZ..zzZZ -- Mickle, 18:53:04 09/08/03 Mon Don' even THINK about snorin' ! Kit mutters down Mickle's ear. She moves away, curls up and stuffs her paws in her ears. -- Kit, 10:23:56 09/09/03 Tue the next morning, Mickle gets up with the rising sun. There! I guess they was right...I feel much better! -- Mickle, 19:28:26 09/10/03 Wed Kit sits up with tousled fur and rubs her eyes. Personally mate, m'not a morin' beast...she looks around and can't see anyone else up yet ...an' no o'them is either by the looks of it. Give me a shake o'sommat when they are will yer? she asks Mickle sleepily, before rolling over and dozzing off again. -- Kit, 11:58:37 09/11/03 Thu Swift rolls over and wakes up as he falls out of his perch. Thinking quickly, he reacts the only way a beast that's just woken up can: he slams into the ground with a loud thud and grunts. He looks up, glad to have not crushed Thistle, and dusts himself off as he stands. Mrrrgh... S'not a pleasant way to say hallo to the day, now is it... He pulls out a flask, takes a swig, and leans bleary eyed against his former tree, now grinning to himself whilst waiting for the others to awaken. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 15:11:24 09/11/03 Thu OOC: Forgot this important note... I'm lucky to get this post up as my comp is being screwy... I should be back to posting normally by tomorrow. And as for Rudd, he's having a ragingly hard time getting voy to load recently, so he asked me to let you all know that. We'll probably put a bit of a halt on the quest until he can get his computer sorted. (NT) -- Swift, 15:14:59 09/11/03 Thu OOC: Sorta odd how just as Swift lets everyone know that, I manage to get on voy. Hope I still can tomorrow. BIC: Rudd sits up slowly and sighs. How come I'm always so sleepy when I wake up? One would sorta figure I'd be refreshed. Just doesn't work that way I suppose. He lies back down and stares at the treetops. (NT) -- Rudd, 17:05:21 09/11/03 Thu Thistle stirs a bit, then opens her eyes, to find she has a mild crick in her neck. She stretches luxuriously and hops down from the tree, smiling. Lahdedah, what fun is today, we get to go and meet Prince Rudd's familia! Or, rather, his kingdom...I do hope they've moved past feudalism... (NT) -- Thistle the Odd..., 18:41:46 09/11/03 Thu Mickle looks up from the fire he was tending. ah good! it looks like almost everyone's up. he walks over to Kit and gives her a gentle shake. wakey wakey, kit me otteress... -- Mickle, 19:37:30 09/11/03 Thu The ottermaid pulls herself into a sitting posistion again grumpily. T'anks matey. Oh corkscrews...t'still too early. She spends a while remembering how to stand and ends up hitting her head on a low tree branch, which wakes her up once and for all. -- Kit, 10:47:11 09/12/03 Fri Swift mumbles from over by his tree. Where's Jadris? W'want to set off, I do... Looks around. Where the bloody is said hermetic squirrel? Sighs as he sips at his flask some more. T'appears as Finalblade and Ark disappeared as well. Oh well. We'll give it a bit, and if Jadris, Finalblade, and Ark don't show, we'll make journey to the holt on our own. M'sure it won't be too hard to find... Stares at the pinkish sky. S'a pretty sky, lads. Have a look at it... He points at the sky and smiles. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 17:13:41 09/12/03 Fri Reed mumbles and slowly comes to, staring with horribly blood shot eyes into the woods, he slowly gets up and shuffles over into the wood, mumbling something about taking a wizz and getting some berrys -- Reed Streamline, 17:17:36 09/12/03 Fri Mickle pokes his head out of the cave. yer right, Swift me matey, tis quite pretty...but, fire's so much prettier! pops back into the cave and tends the fire some more. -- Mickle, 18:19:25 09/12/03 Fri oops...change that 'cave' to a 'hut' and we'll be grand... -- Mickle, 18:37:26 09/12/03 Fri Swift leans his head back, staring at the sky some more. I always loved the way that the pink gradually dissapates an' becomes that lovely blue... Then later on at dusk it'll repeat, yet somehow, it'll be different... The passage of time is fascinatin'... The day begins and ends in the same, yet different matter... All is pink... All is pink... Swift keeps mumbling incoherent philosophy while staring upward and waiting for the others to arrive. (NT) -- Swift, 21:53:40 09/12/03 Fri finalblade comes out of the woods looking very hyperhey good morning come get up eh?? (NT) -- finalblade, 03:52:49 09/13/03 Sat ark comes out along with Finalbladeheehee we goin to the wate'r and i drin'k (NT) -- Ark, 03:53:52 09/13/03 Sat Thistle nods, and then begins explaining the scientific reasoning behind sunsets and sunrises. And then just starts humming something about strawberries. (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 06:19:09 09/13/03 Sat Swift reaches out to his side while staring at the sky and grabs Thistle's shoulder. Don't stop talking about sunsets and sunrises, love... I like them... Keep going... Starestarestare. (NT) -- Swift, 12:54:43 09/13/03 Sat There is a shout from the hut, then Mickle comes rolling out of the hut. he comes to a stop at Swift's feet and grins sheepishly. -- Mickle, 18:45:50 09/13/03 Sat Swift looks down at the ferret. Why's you gotta be rollin' into a lad for, mate? He reaches down and picks up Mickle. What's up, mate? You're cutting bad into my staring. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 22:34:51 09/13/03 Sat Less strawberries an' more sunsets and sunrises or yer'll make us all 'ungry. Kit wanders over towards the group and nods at Mickle. Nice impression of a bowlin' ball matey. -- Kit, 06:38:33 09/14/03 Sun swift its not very nice just grabing peoplewalks to the stump of the tree and looks up (NT) -- finalblade, 15:22:51 09/14/03 Sun can we go now im bor'edlooks at everone who some are sleepyi wait her'eand sits on the ground (NT) -- Ark, 15:25:44 09/14/03 Sun Reed stumbles back, his eyes still really blood shot, and trying to button back up his dropfront breeches, he stumbles back into camp, where he wasnt exactly watching the ground. Stepping into the fire he let out a slightly welp and stared down at his footpaws, now incased in fire. He jumped out of the fire, grabbed water and drecnhed out his paws. Sighing in pain he plops down, still drowsy with a hang over -- Reed Streamline, 19:04:10 09/14/03 Sun Mickle grins. good to see someone else who forgot that fire was hot...* sheepishly looks at his smouldering tail.* -- Mickle, 19:11:26 09/14/03 Sun Hmm... Jadris's dissappeared... Right! We're headin' out. He'll catch up I'm sure. Forward, mates. Break camp and all that. We march, er... He pulls out his dirk and spins it on the ground. It points northeast. Grabbing it, he stands. Thataway! Let's go! He swaggers off, staring at the pink sky and humming. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 20:41:19 09/14/03 Sun Hmm, we look to be heading northeast, and that would be toward the center of the island...trots after Swift, muttering math to herself and then saying random facts whenever they pass a tree So that would be 4.5 to the power of 5 times pi...ooh, look moss!...and then take the hypotenuse and times it by three... (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 13:47:33 09/15/03 Mon Mickle continues waving his tail around as he walks. ooo! that stings...I wish that my tail would stop smoking... -- Mickle, 18:27:30 09/15/03 Mon Rudd gets up and follows everybody. Well, it is an island so we have to find the holt eventually right? -- Rudd, 17:18:12 09/16/03 Tue well i guess so Finalblade starts walking beside rudd -- Finalblade, 17:24:09 09/16/03 Tue ark jumps up yes wher'e goin'g puts on a smile and starts walking in the back (NT) -- Ark, 17:25:55 09/16/03 Tue reed slowly follows along a 'ure fer 'angovers? -- Reed, 19:16:46 09/16/03 Tue Fik grins at Reed in a I'm-mocking-your-misery type of way. Sorry mate, don't know what one would be. You could always try not drinkin so much I suppose but it seems to be a wee bit late for that. Guess you're codswalloped eh? Was that the right word? I'm not entirely sure. Codswallop seemed to be a good substitute for different types of cussing. It just doesn't sound right though. He shrugs and continues walking. -- Fik, 16:55:42 09/17/03 Wed

Subject: At the Island of Rudd's Holt
Author: Captain Swiftstream Brooktail [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 13:57:24 08/19/03 Tue Right, so Swiftstream is going to let finalblade live and has asked the crew to assemble their equipment and meet him at the mast. Once that is done, we'll swim the rest of the way to the island and poke around a bit and see if we can find the settlement itself. Thus, the fantasmically wonderous journey to Ruddingy's Holt will come to a close. (But don't worry. It'll keep going even after we find the holt. We really should just call it The Never Ending Quest, really, because we have more planned for after, hehehe.)
Replies:
Swift grins at Lauren. The water isn't so deep as to sink such a fine badger as yourself, mate. Given your magnitude, I'd venture to say as you'll be able to walk with your head just above the water. Savvy? He yells to Rudd. Oi Rudd! This place is called Plumbry Island, isn't it? And don't forget to grab Martin's Sword, mate. Can't go leavin' a treasure such as that aboard the ship... He checks the inside of his sea captain's jacket, makes sure he has his throwing knife and dirk along with his sword, checks his sling pouch and sling wound around his wrist, and grins stupidly. Hahhh... T'will be a fine mess for any beast as wants to fiddle with me... (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 14:01:15 08/19/03 Tue Thistle salutes and chuckles. She drops her satchel/purse-thingiemabob over her head. The mousemaid also puts away her sword in its sheath strapped to her back. And then after dealing with you, they'll deal with me. Which will most likely be significantly less pleasant, given that some beasts are opposed to my irrevocably interestingly idiosyncratic irregular impressive intriguing inviting inspiring ineffable information! Swimming, you say? (NT) -- Thistle the Odd..., 15:38:19 08/19/03 Tue Reed looks down at his cutlass in his hand, shrugs and strides over to the mast Always be ready to be thrown from the clipper wid a full haversark and yer swoard... -- Reed, 15:55:34 08/19/03 Tue Rudd grumbles a bit and heads below decks to grab Martin's very dusty sword. Wouldn't have brought this thing along if I'd known I'd have my javelin, don't think I've used it once since Salamandastron. -- Rudd, 16:26:59 08/19/03 Tue As Rudd starts to speechify about how these are, in fact, The Plumbry Islands, he is pushed overboard by Fik (who quickly jumps in after him so as not to be shoved over himself). First one to shore gets dibs at whatever food we find! Fik yells back up at the ship as he swims for shore with Rudd. -- Fik, 16:36:43 08/19/03 Tue Swift hears this, turns, and leaps off over the ship, shooting through the water to the shoreline. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 17:05:52 08/19/03 Tue Mickle looks around at the rapidly emptying ship. he begins to speak to noone in particular. well, matey, I think I'll just wait here for a short while, sein as any self respectin' otter would attack a vermin wandrin' round his home...Mickle sits back against the mast. -- Mickle, 20:08:10 08/19/03 Tue finalblade looks at mickle sorry mate just got really mad i will wait a bit to (NT) -- finalblade, 06:17:20 08/20/03 Wed ark see's them coming and runs up the cliffome on ere (NT) -- Ark, 06:19:44 08/20/03 Wed Swift surfaces to look back at the ship and sees the two still aboard. He quickly swims back and yells up at Mickle and Finalblade. Do I have to order the two of you into the water? We're not leavin' you behind... That'd be a stupid move... Better you with a group of us than the two of you sitting on a deserted ship. You've a better chance of survival in the group with us than sitting on the ship, and besides... If they spotted the ship first and saw you with finalblade, what would they think? I'll tell you. You, Mickle, are the ship's guard, guarding the prisoner Finalblade, meanwhile, the crew of this apparent vermin ship is out combing the island. You'd be signing all of our death warrants by staying. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 09:24:31 08/20/03 Wed Lauren jumps into the water, sinking and disappearing under the surface. A few seconds later, her nose pokes out of the water, just barely, as she walks on the bottom, heading for shore. (NT) -- Lauren Flame Eyes, 09:29:08 08/20/03 Wed Rudd reaches the shore moments before Fik. Ok We're goin to sneek around the island a bit and make sure all is safe before attempting to find the holt. (NT) -- Rudd, 10:08:40 08/20/03 Wed Reed gets out of the water as quickly as possible, emptying his boots and shoving them in his pack her dries off his blade Send meh in fiorst iv yeh loik...i can beh used as a dummy or somet'ing.. -- Reed, 11:34:25 08/20/03 Wed he not her -- reed, 11:35:37 08/20/03 Wed* Thistle's in the water, paddling next to Lauren and mumbling about H2O and all that lovely stuff (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 13:43:20 08/20/03 Wed Mickle grins at Swift. well, matey, if that's how ye feel...Mickle jumps up onto the railing. matey! ye'll remember this as the day Mickle almost got you killed!Mickle disappears. -- Mickle, 18:20:29 08/20/03 Wed finalblade grinswait up he runs and jumps in the water pops hes head up and starts swimming swift if you don't start moving they will think that your dead (NT) -- finalblade, 07:40:14 08/21/03 Thu* Re: finalblade grinswait up he runs and jumps in the water pops hes head up and starts swimming swift if you don't start moving they will think that your dead (NT) -- finalblade, 07:41:24 08/21/03 Thu ark runs over to where rudd isyou ere at las't (NT) -- Ark, 07:42:59 08/21/03 Thu Swift shoots through the water, pausing to swim circles around Finalblade for a few moments, then turning to swim to the land. Upon leaving the water, he staggers a bit, pulls out a flask, sips a bit from it, and grins. Ah... S'good to be in the water every now and again... He pulls out his dirk and looks at the nearby forest. Right me beauties, I think we'll be going guerilla style for a bit... Sneaking behind trees and such so as to not be seen and stabbed, maimed, pilfered and such. We're all accomplished sneaking types, so shouldn't be too hard. We'll find the holt and formulate a plan for entry from there. At least that's what I'm inclined to say. I'd have to conspire with Commodore Ruddingy on that one... What say you, Commodore? Bows to Rudd. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 09:47:44 08/21/03 Thu finalblade gets on shore yeah i geuss i am heehee (NT) -- finalblade, 12:02:03 08/21/03 Thu ark takes out a slingeah me mat'es we be goin neaky (NT) -- ark, 12:03:15 08/21/03 Thu Thistle flops onto land, making a squelching noise as she hits Oi. My clothes have absorbed the water, due to their material, and now they're weighing me down, probably because all the extra atoms that have been absorbed into my clothing make it heavier, and and...oh, all right. gets up, even though no one has made any comments I suppose, if you REALLY want me to, I'll come with. grins brightly (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 13:41:03 08/21/03 Thu Rudd bows so low towards Swift that he loses his balance and flops down into the shallow water. You're exactly right there mate, sneakin around hidin behind trees an' such. He gets up and brushes some wet sand off his pants. Right, well, lets be of then. (NT) -- Rudd, 14:18:02 08/21/03 Thu OOC: I meant off BIC: Fik sneaks into the woods. (NT) -- Fik, 14:22:12 08/21/03 Thu ark laughs at ruddunny heehee hohoho (NT) -- ark, 16:14:57 08/21/03 Thu finalblade takes of he's swordim gonego's in the tree's and disapears (NT) -- finalblade, 16:16:59 08/21/03 Thu* Reed grins, and drops down to all fours, and lightly pads off into the woods, then comes back out. Sticks and leaves have been shoved in his shirt to form a type of gilly suit thing, making him look like undergrowth. He winks then materlizes(sp) into the trees -- Reed, 17:07:44 08/21/03 Thu Swift smiles at Thistle as he throws his arm around her. Love, allow me to formally invite you along for the journey. He bows low and stands up. Right, enough with the foolishness. Let's get to it. He begins making his way through the forest, slowly, as he has no camoflauge. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 17:30:47 08/21/03 Thu mickle grins at Swift once before he fades back into the woods. his voice floats back to Swift.Matey, I'll try to avoid contact with the locals until you convince them I'm ok... -- Mickle, 18:15:38 08/21/03 Thu finalblade mumbles to swiftgive me a shout if'n you need me (NT) -- finalblade, 18:18:50 08/21/03 Thu ark go's near ruddi go with you? (NT) -- ark, 18:19:57 08/21/03 Thu OOC: My computer was acting up so I couldn't post, but I'ts fixed now. BIC: Somebody...just...tell me where to go. Heh. -- Rotin M. Starfire, 19:00:45 08/21/03 Thu ooc: finalblade, matey, do you have e-mail? -- Mickle, 19:59:18 08/21/03 Thu Lauren sighs and goes onto all fours, knowing that no amount of camoflauge will hide her. She clomps unhappily along, grumbling to herself. (NT) -- Lauren Flame Eyes, 20:14:35 08/21/03 Thu Swift sees Lauren and has an idea. As he's not too great at sneaking, and currently a bit tipsy, he decides to stroll out in the open with Lauren. He says aloud. Right, all you sneaky lads keep an eye on me and Lauren. Stay hidden. We'll do the talking when we run into beasts. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 20:33:03 08/21/03 Thu Lauren grins and puts and arm around Swift. Good idea cully. You know a beast such as myself is good in the, err... ligual bit. Yeah, I think that's right... (NT) -- Lauren Flame Eyes, 21:12:34 08/21/03 Thu OOC: Lingual, not ligual. HAHA! (NT) -- L.F.E., 21:15:00 08/21/03 Thu (yes i do mickle ) (NT) -- finalblade, 08:10:54 08/22/03 Fri Swift twirls his dirk a bit, then stashes it inside his jacket. He swaggers along, grinning to himself. Aye, you'n I're good't the lingual bits and such... He leans over and whispers. Actually, I think the maid Thistle is the best, but we shant tell her that lest her head swells to great magnitudes... He walks along under the tree cover, still grinning to himself, looking around. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 08:52:51 08/22/03 Fri Rudd glances at Ark. I suppose you can follow along but you have to keep quiet. No jumpin around bein all noisy an' such. We're tryin to not be seen. (NT) -- Rudd, 09:23:41 08/22/03 Fri Reed prances up to Swifts' side, and looks up at him Say, if'n chew and Flame Eyes meet up wid bea'ts vant meh to keep goin' 'long?..or stay on the outskirts o ze voods fer pertection?..not loike ye er her needz it..Reed, looking to his right and his left scurries back over to the outskirts of the woods, seeing as a walking bush/undergrowth thing would be weird to see -- Reed Streamline, 11:14:43 08/22/03 Fri Thistle hides behind a bush, muttering to herself about the genus and family of blackberry bushes OOC: I'm going to be gone tomorrow...maybe Sunday, too. Drat. So, Lauren, Swift, if it please ye, mention Thistle if it gets interesting. But I'd much rather ANYONE not post for a day! cackle (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 13:41:01 08/22/03 Fri Out of sight behind the group a ragged cloaked figure peers through the trees, carefully laying his paw upon his dirk...* (NT) -- ..., 16:07:55 08/22/03 Fri Ark looks up at ruddyup i be quie't as a butt'erfl'y (NT) -- Ark, 16:57:39 08/22/03 Fri finalblade apears near swift its a bit quiet mate (NT) -- finalblade, 17:02:05 08/22/03 Fri The shadow flits behind a nearby oak, the dirk flashing briefly in the sunlight as the figure moves (NT) -- ..., 17:35:17 08/22/03 Fri another shadow flits behind a nearby birch tree. -- (v), 18:25:14 08/22/03 Fri finalblade turns on he's heel now i know that was something swift gets hes sword at the readyis he good or evilit might be vermintsor that dirk i saw now vermin do not carry dirks unless i could be wronglooks around still walking with swiftwell i will tell you after going trew those bushes i have to changelooks in the wood where he saw the flash and mumbles to swifti will check it outand with that finalblade was gone* (NT) -- Finalblade, 18:54:10 08/22/03 Fri Lauren blows on her whiskers unhappily. Looks like we're gonna die, old buddy. What say you? (NT) -- Lauren Flame Eyes, 21:35:48 08/22/03 Fri Swift grabs Finalblade before he goes into the bushes. He crouches to look him levelly in the eye. Right matey, let's get things straightened out. Obviously, this mysterious chap knows their way around the forest. You're new here. They'll slash your throat quicker'n you can say "lemon." Second, vermin do carry dirks. Third, I've no idea what you mean by "going trew those bushes i have to change." That confused me horribly. Just stay here in between me and Lauren. He picks the mouse up and deposits him between he and Lauren. He grins at Lauren. Well matey, I caught a glimpse of said cause of our deaths... Cloak... Dirk... Moves quick. But I'd wager they lack in the strength department. We might be able to lure said terror out to the open and capture them. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 21:39:53 08/22/03 Fri Lauren blinks. If the thing's an assassin, we're good as dead. The dirk's probably poisoned... She glances down at finalblade, and then hisses at Swift. If anyone's goin', it's the mouse! He'll make a wonderful fleshy shield! (NT) -- Lauren Flame Eyes, 21:59:49 08/22/03 Fri Swift grins. I don't think this chap's got a poisoned dirk... Seems more the observe first, decide to slip the blade twixt your ribs later on. And don't use Finalblade as a shield... Sure, he can be a touch annoying, but I dunno if I could have that on me old conscience. He winks up at Lauren, grinning. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 22:07:23 08/22/03 Fri The figure stands nearby, wreathed in shadows from the trees Harken, am I friend or foe? Tis you that are the foe, ruddy vermin and the likes scouring my land. Look at yerselves! points an accusing finger at Swift You lot are pirates to the core. I'm 'armed so I warn ye foolish creatures, get off me' island! (NT) -- ..., 10:55:55 08/23/03 Sat Swift tips his hat and bows. I am a pirate, me hearty. But I'm a good pirate. You say you're armed? Well.. With a flourish, he has his dirk and throwing knife out. You'll find that I am as well, along with the others. He tenses slightly. It occurs to me that there is a holt on Plumbry Islands here... It would seem to me that they'd be in posession of the island, not a raving hermit such as yourself. (NT) -- Swift, 12:50:42 08/23/03 Sat Lauren has her bow out, arrow nocked, but string not drawn. She grins. Swift's right, ye know. If this ain't your island, you've no right to be ordering us about. So, if you'll just let off, we'll continue on our way... But if not, I'll let my bow here do the negotiating. You wouldn't like that much, no doubt. (NT) -- Lauren Flame Eyes, 13:01:57 08/23/03 Sat a voice drifts down to the figure. I wouldn't try anything stupid...why don't ye step out into the light so that we can see what ye look like? I promise not to hurt ye if ye do... -- Mickle, 18:37:09 08/23/03 Sat Rotin watches, appearing nonchalant and just a little bored. However, she is really ready to whip out her sword at any moment. -- Rotin, 19:17:38 08/23/03 Sat Thistle chuckles Don't be daft, whoever you are, honestly, they're an otter and a badger, and I'm a mouse for Martin's sake! Great seasons, that's the SECOND time someone I'm with has been mistaken for vermin, a bit bizarre, no? But then, with me things just sort of fall in place, it's quite interesting, let me tell you about it...Thistle draws her sword just in case, but she's still smiling and tapping her foot...all requests for her to be quiet are completely and utterly lost in Thistle's crowded mind (NT) -- Thistle the Warriormaid, 09:22:03 08/24/03 Sun Indeed, an otter holt... eh, but what twould you care. These are my woods, but I shall not allow any beast, vermin or otherwise, to pass by my homestead with weapons drawn, put them away, the lot of you! Eyes Swiftstream suspiciously as he sheaths his dirk (NT) -- ..., 13:36:45 08/24/03 Sun ark comes upwift cn i shoo't him??? (NT) -- Ark, 13:59:57 08/24/03 Sun Swift slowly puts away his weapons, saying aloud. We didn't have weapons drawn to begin with. You just went all paranoid on us. He mutters to Ark. No. Shoot him and I'll stab you through the face. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 15:04:06 08/24/03 Sun Rudd grins at Swift. So that'd be a firm no on the shooting idea Ark. (NT) -- Rudd, 15:51:11 08/24/03 Sun Ark walks over to rudd and turns to face swift you know scar'y me puts hes sling in hes belt (NT) -- Ark, 15:57:46 08/24/03 Sun well as for me im keeping my sword out i don't trust any of youlooks around then looks at the guy in the hood just show yourself mate so we can see what ugly face where going to look at (NT) -- Finalblade, 15:59:57 08/24/03 Sun Yore face will be a lot uglier then mine with my dirk handle protruding from it. Put down your weapon! (NT) -- ..., 10:47:20 08/25/03 Mon Reed stands up, looking feircer than ever and points his cutlass directly at Finalblade WATCH THY TOUNGE!!! ye bloody mongrel, er yer'll be eating meh blade, y'h'ear!?Reed eyes him then turns to the figures Aye mates, but if yeh tr'tack us, yer'll be 'gretin it as yer hide flaps in the wind fro' a pole 'eld 'igh He sheaths his cutlass -- Reed Streamline, 17:01:48 08/24/03 Sun Swift strolls up to Reed and puts his paw on the other otter's shoulder. He whispers. Um... Matey? One of the trackers is our mate Mickle... I'm thinkin' this mysterious beast doesn't mean us any real harm... He glares at Finalblade and Ark. You twits... You're gonna get us all killed some day... He walks away from the group. Alright then. If I tell you m'name, will you come over here and bandy words with us in civilized manner? (NT) -- Swift, 18:05:07 08/24/03 Sun Rudd stands up and walks up near Swift. If you're goin to tell him your name shouldn't he have to tell us his? (NT) -- Rudd, 19:13:19 08/24/03 Sun OOC: Is it just me or do my posts sorta suck lately? (NT) -- Rudd, 19:15:05 08/24/03 Sun reed scratches his head stupidly rioooght -- Reed (oy, not really Rudd), 19:21:46 08/24/03 Sun Mickle drops his dirk, sword, and quiver to the base of a tree. there ye are, whoever ye are... now, are ye gonna at least show us who ye are? -- mickle, 19:31:41 08/24/03 Sun finalblade looks at reed i didin't mean you (NT) -- Finalblade, 04:36:20 08/25/03 Mon Finalblade sticks he's sword in the ground infront of him (NT) -- Finalblade, 04:37:22 08/25/03 Mon im ungry can we go to the hol't now???? (NT) -- Ark, 04:38:34 08/25/03 Mon Lauren puts away her bow, glaring at Ark. Quiet you, or I'll turn you over my knee! Don't think I won't! She turns the the mysterious beast. He's not the only one wot deserves it, either. Sneaking up on pore innocent beasts! What would your mother think, eh? (NT) -- Lauren Flame Eyes, 07:33:04 08/25/03 Mon Swift mumbles back to Rudd. That's the plan, mate... But I figure as since we outnumber him, 't'would be courteous to tell him my name first. Show good intentions and such... And Ark... I really wasn't kidding about stabbing you through the face.... He grins evilly at the otter and turns back to the shadowy figure. Right then, me hearty, since you aren't answering my question, I'll just go ahead and state me moniker. He pulls his hat off his head and bows. Captain Swiftstream Brooktail, at your service, sir. Would you like to know the rest of the crew's monikers as well? (NT) -- Swift, 09:02:28 08/25/03 Mon Rudd rolls up his sleeves as he has not yet shown he is unarmed. And I'm Co-Captain Ruddingy, I spose I probly have a last name but I don't know what it is yet. He turns to point at Fik. That little beast there's Fik, take no notice of any insulting comments he might make, he isn't quite in his right mind if you know what I mean. (NT) -- Rudd, 09:15:23 08/25/03 Mon Swift turns to Rudd. What're you talkin' about, sir? You're a commodore! Not, Co-Captain. Unless someone changed our ranks and failed to inform me... Looks a bit puzzled, but turns to the figure and says. Well, oh shadowy lurker, what'll you be doing then? Trying to kill all of us? M'afraid it wouldn't happen. You'd get, lessee... Those two. Points at Finalblade and Ark. The rest of us, well, you wouldn't get us, let's just say. But I'm rambling. Just tell us y'name, and lessee about bein' mates, eh? (NT) -- Swift, 10:01:03 08/25/03 Mon Commandore? Well I appreciate the title but I'm afraid it's you who's changin the ranks. When this all started I swear we was Co-Captains. (NT) -- Rudd, 10:19:31 08/25/03 Mon The figure steps into the light, and throws down his hood, reavealing the face of a squirrel, untidy from years of labor. His steel blue eyes flash in the sunlight I am Jadriscus, but I'm better known hereabouts as Jadris. I was marooned here after a storm tore apart the ship I was held slave on.But there will be time for stories later. What business have you on this island? (NT) -- Jadris, 11:04:18 08/25/03 Mon Swift grins. Y'see m'co-captain Ruddingy? Well, he's a princely type... His family is in charge of said holt I mentioned earlier. We came to visit, see. No real evil plots or anything. But say, do you have a little hut or something near by with water? I'm a mite parched... (NT) -- Swiftstream, 11:36:35 08/25/03 Mon Still slightly suspicious, the squirrel beckons for them to follow...* (NT) -- Jadris, 11:52:27 08/25/03 Mon Rudd follows Jadris, desperately trying to pronounce Commadore properly. Commandore.......... Commidore.......... Commodore...... (NT) -- Rudd, 12:08:21 08/25/03 Mon Ark alks and takes of he's sling and shoots one at swift making it miss and smile's evillyjust you do tha't (NT) -- Ark, 12:34:21 08/25/03 Mon Finalblade runs up and takes hes sword i think he's getting a idea swift the little tyke (NT) -- Finalblade, 12:36:35 08/25/03 Mon ark looks back a finalblademe know tic'k silly mousin heehee starts running in front with jadris (NT) -- Ark, 12:38:51 08/25/03 Mon Swift grabs the small otter as it runs by, picks it up one handed, slams it into the trunk of the tree, and growls. Do it again, cully. He pulls out his dirk and slams it into the tree next to its head. I've got no qualms about killin' you now... Just gimme a reason, just one reason... He pulls out his dirk and slices off Ark's whiskers. Throwing the otter kit away, he turns to Jadris and bows. I'm sorry about that... He's a mutinous evil prat. Lead on, Jadris. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 13:15:55 08/25/03 Mon Reaches for his dirk the moment Ark is lifted into the air by Swiftstream but restrains himself, and points forward through the woods This way ye scurvy lot! (NT) -- Jadris, 14:45:38 08/25/03 Mon Thistle trails along, sword sheathed on her back, and she's bubbling on about why the sky and ocean are blue. You know, the usual (NT) -- Thistle the Odd Warriormaid, 14:50:49 08/25/03 Mon Reed sighs and trails at the end of the pack, staring down at his now booted footpaws -- Reed Streamline...Firing Squad!!!!, 18:38:09 08/25/03 Mon Mickle appears next to Swift, nonchalantly walking along with his sword sheathed and bow strapped to his back, along with his quiver. -- Mickle, 19:06:31 08/25/03 Mon Ark gets up a bit dizzy then starts laughingo we'll he gets up and go's to the back with rudd and starts hummy still smiling evilly (NT) -- Ark, 07:01:18 08/26/03 Tue Finalblade gets up to thistle well then this a fine day what do you say??he sheath's hes sword (NT) -- Finalblade, 07:02:46 08/26/03 Tue* Rudd aims a kick at Ark.

Not much, but it's better then being on a ruddy ship! (NT) -- Jadris, 13:54:24 08/26/03 Tue You want to know what I say? Thistle flicks a disdainful purple eye over finalblade Eukaryotic cells are the only ones whose nucleus contains the DNA, and they're split up into four kingdoms: Protists, Plants, Fungi, and Animals. Prokaryotic cells' DNA is just contained within the cell itself, and they're bacteria...goes on to describe about cells and stuff, which is convinently what her creator is learning in Honors Biology... (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 13:56:14 08/26/03 Tue Reed pokes at some stuff then slaps Mickle on the back a couple of times grining hugely Yer meh hero mate....He winks, and sends a paw across his throat, then shoves Jadris Yew makin' fun of ships fuzz tail?reed winks -- Reed Streamline, 17:57:59 08/26/03 Tue Swift swaggers about, grinning stupidly to himself.

Mind if I have a sip o' water, mate? Me throat and guts are quite parched. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 18:08:57 08/26/03 Tue Mickle grins and winks back at Reed. too bad tangle's to thick to see wot she just did...Mickle mutters under his breath. -- Mickle, 20:42:35 08/26/03 Tue Yeah, a drink'd be really nice at the moment. I'm parched and I'm sure the rest of the crew is too. Y'mind if we have a drink Jadris? -- Rudd, 14:19:18 08/27/03 Wed Jadris has already disapeared, only to reappear moment later with the bucket of water he dipped into the well Tis underground streamwater.

I grow weary talking to you, as doing so is similar to ranting to a wall. she stalks off and pops beside Lauren and Swift (NT) -- Thistle the Irked, 06:25:48 08/28/03 Thu okwalks into the woods calling bakbe back soon (NT) -- Finalblade, 06:36:13 08/28/03 Thu Finalblade comes back smiling holding he's sword then he sheaths, it and go's and lays on the grass and falls asleep (NT) -- Finalblade, 08:37:07 08/28/03 Thu Swift drinks the water gratefully, then fills up his canteen, grinning to himself. Hope you don't mind, matey, but this is handsome water... S'just as good as any plunder... And no killin' or stealin's involved with said plundering. He stashes it inside his jacket and swaggers about, pausing to look down at the sleeping Finalblade. Hmm.... Goin' to sleep when we're on a quest... S'bad for 'im. He kicks Finalblade hard in the ribs to wake him up and walks back over to Jadris. What's your story, me hearty? Why come you here on an island all by y'onses? There's an otter holt nearby we think, so why don't you just go live with them? I think the whole crew's dead curious about it...

Just doesn't get it... We never told him to sleep, 'e just did it... And it's rude to come into your dwelling and sleep... He looks at the hermit squirrel. Don't mind him, Jadris... He's wet behind the ears and such... Still learnin' the tricks of the trade for questing. So, what's your story?

Cutlass drawn, he edges towards Swift, all while staring into the forest. He mutters under his breath again dont loike 'rees at 't'all, give me the bloody creeps they do... -- Reed Streamline....., 20:03:14 08/28/03 Thu Swift glares at Finalblade while his paw roves to the inside of his jacket. I'll say things whenever I bloody well feel like it. A little mouse like you isn't gonna tell me when I can and can't speak. He tosses a flask to Reed, putting the paw back inside his jacket. There y'are, me hearty. Methinks we're not bein' watched, but still, if the forest gives you the collywobbles... Get a little rum in the belly and calm up a bit. All the while, he hasn't blinked or taken an eye off Finalblade. He speaks to the mouse. I don't appreciate threats, cully. I know you meant that "do not say a thing to me" was a threat. Either that, or it was an order... And I know you weren't ordering me... That'd be bad for you, savvy? So, drop the tough-mouse charade and relax. Take a bloody nap now. S'long's I don't have to deal with you bein' overdramatic. (NT) -- Captain Swiftstream Brooktail, 21:42:37 08/28/03 Thu Finalblade looks at swiftim not sleeping now you might kick me see now i can't trust you ...and i least i don't have a go beat a beast up when i get madstill glaring at swift(mickle inside) -- Finalblade, 06:19:09 08/29/03 Fri* Finalblade still glaring at swift and when i said "do not say a thing to me"i didin't want and go fighting with you anymore cuz i would just loose my temper if you said somthing like you did.................... (NT) -- Finalblade, 06:23:34 08/29/03 Fri Another branch snaps, followed by a dull thud and something rustles under the trees. -- ....., 08:34:02 08/29/03 Fri Swift takes his paw off the blade of his throwing knife and smiles. I didn't loose m'temper, mate... I can assure you that had I lost said temper, you'd be in a much worse state than just some bruised ribs. I'm not mad, oh no. You'll know when I'm mad, trust me. Now, Jadri-- He hears the branch snap, the thud, and the rustling. Unsheathing his sword, he starts rapping out commands. Look alive, me hearties, weapons out and such. Looks like Reed was right... I think we've got a new arrival here... He leaves the fenced area, ducks, and begins sneaking toward the origin of the sound, grinning slightly to himself. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 09:23:19 08/29/03 Fri Rudd glances back into the trees and sighs. And I haven't even had a drink yet. Honestly some creepy, threatenin forest dwellers have no manners. Wait 'till a chaps had a sip of water before ou go making scary noises. He walks over to the bucket and has a large drink. (NT) -- Rudd, 09:59:35 08/29/03 Fri Fik hops up joyfully. Action at last! Lets go! Come on! Move Move Move! He runs over to Rudd and attempts to pull him towards the forest. (NT) -- Fik, 10:08:34 08/29/03 Fri The rustling quietens and moves away from the noisey group. -- ....., 11:38:27 08/29/03 Fri The mousemaid doesn't hear a thing, too busy extolling the virtues of mammals over reptiles (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 13:39:43 08/29/03 Fri Thanks mate, but i got 'nough rum al-alreadly in meh gut...Heh heh (wow, this is bloody odd) -- Reed, 14:03:37 08/29/03 Fri Mickle slips off into the woods, going off in another direction.* wit the noise that lots makin, I think I could head off whoever that was... -- Mickle, 15:58:11 08/29/03 Fri Swift quietly sneaks about in the undergrowth, humming very quietly and looking about. He stumbles upon some tracks. Hmm... Looks like an... Otter? Hmmm... He sets off, following the tracks, sheathing his sword and drawing his dirk. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 17:33:32 08/29/03 Fri Finalblade gets up and takes off hes swordwell there go's the day eh mate's snigger's and starts following swift (NT) -- Finalblade, 17:34:50 08/29/03 Fri Ark jumps up and takes off hes slingi get emhe shoots a stone where the noise came from (NT) -- Ark, 17:35:51 08/29/03 Fri Fik grabs Arks arm roughly.* Don't go slingin stones yet you idiot. We don't know if it's someone from the holt we're lookin for. It could be anybody. (NT) -- Fik, 17:44:54 08/29/03 Fri OOC: Put a little * at the beggining of all that and it's good. (NT) -- Fik, 17:46:03 08/29/03 Fri Rotin remains silent, quietly observing everything. ((sorry this post was short. I am really tired right now...)) -- Rotin, 20:38:38 08/29/03 Fri The "creepy, threatenin' forest dweller" is not exactly in a good mood by now, it's attempts to climb a tree and take a look at the noisey lot having failed pathetically and the sound of someone in persuit chucking something at its retreat isn't cheerful either. It backtracks, trying to avoid the slining persuit and get a look at who's behind it. -- ....., 04:41:28 08/30/03 Sat Ark looks up at fik him idoi't sneak'y on us (NT) -- Ark, 06:08:30 08/30/03 Sat Sits up from where he had fallen asleep listening to Swift and Finalblade argue (NT) -- Jadris, 08:10:05 08/30/03 Sat good jadris is up i didin't even know he went to sleep halooks at swiftdo see anything?? (NT) -- Finalblade, 08:51:04 08/30/03 Sat Ark still looking at fik let me go aims a stomp for fik's foot (NT) -- Ark, 08:52:19 08/30/03 Sat Swift, who is sneaking quietly on his own* hears Ark roaring like a moron. He grabs a pebble out of his pouch and chucks it at the otter's head to either draw his fire over there, or knock him out, then continues.* Hmm... S'back tracking this otter is... He sneaks along very quietly, sheathing the dirk and beginning to smile to himself as he hears rustling not too far from him. Well, I think I might gotcha... He says to himself in a low undertone. He sneaks forward a bit more, inch by inch, slowly so as not to alert the mysterious thing to his presence. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 10:04:12 08/30/03 Sat Ark move's his head to the side missing the stone his foot going to down to stomp on fik's foot (NT) -- Ark, 10:19:01 08/30/03 Sat OOC: Ark, I don't think you can really dodge that... See, for starters, you're a dibbun. Dibbuns, though you may think so, aren't capable of fighting well, or combat skills in general. Second, the stone came flying out of the bushes. He wouldn't have seen it coming for two reasons: 1. He's busy struggling with Fik and 2. The speed that the stone was flying at would give him very little time to dodge. Basically, Ark is now either very dazed, or knocked out. A rock to the head is not easily dodged, and they generally cause death, unconsciousness, or dazedness. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 10:33:39 08/30/03 Sat Startled by the commotion ahead, the "creepy, threatin' forest dweller" moves backwards abruptly and trips over a furry thing lying behind it in the undergrowth. If that's not enough to scare it out of its wits the 'furry thing' moves. With a muffled oath the ottermaid that Swift has been tracking attemps to batter him over the head, unfortunately without realising the larger otter would be a head and shoulders taller than her if he was standing. -- ....., 12:56:23 08/30/03 Sat Thistle grins at Rotin So, what d' you think our mysterious stranger is? I'd like to think it was one of the ectoplasmic variety, or simply speaking...a ghost. (NT) -- Thistle the Odd Warriormaid, 12:57:29 08/30/03 Sat Swift yells aloud as he attempts to ward off the blows to his head. Hoi, knock it off! Knock it off!! He dives and tackles the other otter, trying to get a look at it's face and saying. Hold still, I don't want to hurt you, just get a look is all! Bloody! Stop hittin' me! Wh-- Kit? He stands up and back. Kit, me darlin', is that you? (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 14:46:51 08/30/03 Sat (sorry is just a read what you said wrong i thought that you where closer sorry Ark takes the stone to the head and and falls knocked out (NT) -- Ark, 16:36:57 08/30/03 Sat oh good another otter thats just what i need another person to knock my head or hit my ribs* walks down and turns to see what was happing with swift* (NT) -- Finalblade, 16:39:14 08/30/03 Sat Mickle steps out from the woods near Swift.* well, Swift...looks like you have things under control now...whos yer friend? -- Mickle, 20:19:07 08/30/03 Sat Watch thy tounge or lose it punk!reed points again at finalblade, then walks over to Kit Weel, burn me cabin and break me rudder its Kit!'Hoi mate, whatcha doin' roun' 'ere? 'Ave we met 'fore mate? Reed Streamline is 'ere to 'comoany these misfitsnudges Swift and winks, then holds his paw out to kit -- Reed Streamline, 20:44:44 08/30/03 Sat Swift heavily nudges Mickle. You remember Kit... She was with us for a while! It's Kit the Orful Ottermaid... At least, I think it is... T'appears she's still thrashing and I can't get a clear look at her... Though I think it's her... Though how she got here.... He bends down and yells. OI!! Stop rollin' around like mad and sit still! Are you Kitrinalin Rowan the Orful Ottermaid, or am I confused? (NT) -- Swift, 21:47:12 08/30/03 Sat Rudd finishes his drink. Oh, Kit you say? S'just as bad as any creepy threatenin' forest dweller... Orful little ottermaid... He drinks more and sits down, looking at Jadris. What's yer story matey? Why're you here? (NT) -- Rudd, 21:52:36 08/30/03 Sat Fik dodges the stomps at his feet and growls. Knock it off or else! The rock flies in and hits Ark, and so, Fik drops the otter on the ground and walks over to Rudd, plopping down. Well that was fun, eh? (NT) -- Fik, 21:55:41 08/30/03 Sat Finalblade looks at reedwell i could have said something alot worse than what i said . (NT) -- Finalblade, 06:46:55 08/31/03 Sun Lauren grins a badgery grin and laughs happily. I figured the Orful Otter'd track us down! Heheeheh! Her eyes wander to Ark, konked out on the ground. Lauren gnaws her lip and repeats quietly. Resist the evil, resist the evil, resist the evil... Must. Not. Seriously. Maim. Poor. Helpless. Otter.... (NT) -- Lauren Flame Eyes, 07:23:04 08/31/03 Sun Ark groans and gets up and wobbles around a bit then falls down and sits up very dizzy (NT) -- Ark, 09:08:38 08/31/03 Sun The mousemaid scowls at ark and grins brightly at Kit Kit! So it wasn't ectoplasmic activities after all! waves Kitkitkitkitkitkit... (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 09:53:50 08/31/03 Sun The ottermaid stops wriggling like a fish out of water, sits up and eyes the group warily. Didn't you lot get eaten by taods or sommat? Shame. She grins evily Swift, yer confused anyway, but yep, I AM Kit, at least I was yesterday...'Lo Reed, Mickle, Lauren...Who's the otter an' the shrew over there matey? I don' think i've met them afore. She peers at Finalblade in confusion. Who's the otter 'ater? I mean, I c'n knock his 'ead off if he really WANTS me to...I might need a paw gettin' up there though. Finally she sticks her tongue out at Rudd and turns to Thistle with a frown. How am I a h'ectoplastic matey? -- Kit, 12:50:18 08/31/03 Sun grins You aren't, Kit, ectoplasm is ghosts! And last I checked, you weren't a ghost....are you? No, you're not translucent. Nor white. (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 16:31:18 08/31/03 Sun Swift blinks at Kit. Of course you know that otter and shrew... S'Ruddingy and Fik! Rudd's the reason we're out here, remember? And the otter hater really just hates me... Though sometimes he loves me and follows me like a shadow... The little one is an otter we found on a pirate ship, and Rotin's here too... Also, that squirrel over there, Jadris, he was gonna tell us his story... Anyway, here mate. Reaches down a paw to help her up. How'd you find us again? You just disappeared!

He turns back to kit and raises his tri corn hat 'lo -- Reed Streamline, 19:44:08 08/31/03 Sun Mickle steps between Reed and Finalblade. mateys, you need to stop fighting! We shouldn't be infighting...we need to be workin together! -- Mickle, 20:29:12 08/31/03 Sun FINEturns on he's heel and storms down back to where jadris is and sits down very angry (NT) -- Finalblade, 05:53:52 09/01/03 Mon Like i'd ferget Rudd! By the otter I didn' know, I meant the little'un. Oh well, i've met 'im now anyway. She winks at Ark, then continues talking to Swift. I got split up from yer when we 'ad that little tiff with some toads near t'Redwall. I wasn't 'bout t'get left behind, so I headed to the West coast an' tried t'find yer afore yer got to Salamandthingy. I ended up doin' a bit o'chattin' t'some nautical types an' they told me a group o'mad beasts had set sail from t'mountain a while back. T'weren' 'ard t'figure it was you lot, so I asked fer a lift. This'd be the third Island lucky. Kit turns to Reed with a grin. Awww, if yer go bannin' smart remarks, glares an' stuff like that yer'll have my 'ead off afore his! -- Kit, 10:19:39 09/01/03 Mon Swift grins at Kit. S'handsome to have you back, love. C'mon... Jadris is gonna hopefully take us to the holt after we find out why he's here.... Swaggers back into the paddock hut thing. Oi Jadris, mate, why don't you tell us how you came here, eh? (NT) -- Swift, 10:44:23 09/01/03 Mon Fik developes a very puzzled look on his face. Coulda sworn I was with this lot durin' the toad incident. He mumbles. Didn't I join 'em in the forest near Redwall? Maybe I'm losin me mind but I remember fightin toads. (NT) -- Fik, 11:35:13 09/01/03 Mon Thistle grins, and holds her paws to her head Wow, all these accents...maybe I should 'ave one, doo ze sinkz so? No, no, I like my voice perfectly fine...begins to ramble on to whoever's listening about different sorts of accents...in the accents themselves An' thair's the fair nairth accent, ye ken?...

So, Jadris, are ye gonna just stand there? or are ye gonna tell us yer story? -- Mickle, 14:34:45 09/02/03 Tue Fik grabs a large twig and begins to poke Jadris. Not feelin to lively are we? Need some water or somethin? He continues to poke Jadris with the twig. -- Fik, 14:54:09 09/02/03 Tue Finalblade takes of he's sword and chops the twigthats not very nice you woudin't like it if it was you so don't do it sheath he's sword and looks at jadris (NT) -- Finalblade, 16:03:33 09/02/03 Tue* Swift finds a rather large branch and walks over to Fik. He hands the branch over. Here mate, prod the taciturn fellow with this... Won't be easily chopped, heheh... Wink at Finalblade. So, Jadris. Start already. We're hanging by a thread. (NT) -- Swift, 16:30:23 09/02/03 Tue Grins at Finalblade and pokes at Jadris a few final times. (NT) -- Fik, 16:42:17 09/02/03 Tue Picks up the two small halfs of Fik's orignal twig and proceeds to poke the shrew. (NT) -- Kit, 11:10:59 09/03/03 Wed * Mickle launches an arrow, planting it between Jadris and his tormentors. I agree with Finalblade. tisn't very kind to torment the poor beast like that. now, mateys, stop wid the pokin, ok? Mickle grins at them.** -- Mickle, 14:42:30 09/03/03 Wed

Subject: Jadris Story
Author: Jadris [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 15:33:50 09/03/03 Wed Leans back Okay, my story is one that takes part a long time ago on the shores of the mainland. Ah, the WEstrn Shores, that was what they were called, just south from the mountain of this fire lizard. One time, a black ship was spotted off the coast line, and my father Thraldune was told to take the women and children to the saftey of Redwall Abbey while the warriors held them off. Our tribe's warriors were cut down easily and the rats caught up to us. My father was slain. My mother and the children fell as well, I was the only one lucky enough to escape. But I had no where to run. I was eventually captured within two days or so and taken as galley slave. then, after many laborous days of sailing, there was a nasty storm that tore our ship to bits. Again, I was the lone surviror and I wahed up onto these shores and have been here since. If you ask it of me, I can lead you to the otter tribe!

Reed grabs Jadris, pulls him up and shoves slightly towards the forest No time to waste old fool, lead on mate! -- Reed Streamline, 15:45:09 09/03/03 Wed Rudd scratches his his head while he gets up to follow Jadris. Had we mentioned the otter holt? I can't remember. I don't think we did. Did we? -- Rudd, 18:10:28 09/03/03 Wed Mickle grins as he stands up to follow Jadris. of course we did, Rudd. Swift mentioned it several times, in fact. -- mickle, 19:01:11 09/03/03 Wed That he did, and I'm looking forward to seeing such a collection of Lutra lutra here! Thistle almost lazily rises from her chair and grins (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 05:41:20 09/04/03 Thu Swift swaggers along. Y'never answered my big question... Why are you out here, mate? Why not bunk with said otter holt, hm? Seems peculiar to be livin' off here on your own. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 09:08:25 09/04/03 Thu Well, it could have to do with the fact he's a hermit. Hermits tend to live on their own. Otherwise they wouldn't be hermits. (NT) -- Fik, 16:33:28 09/04/03 Thu Mickle grins. ye know...he's right...even considered bein a hermit meself...but then I figured that I was just too handsome to keep to meself... -- Mickle, 18:57:11 09/04/03 Thu Oh, we wouldn' want t'waste your good looks on fours walls of a 'ermit's hut matey. I'm sure t'walls 'ave got better things t'do with their time. -- Kit, 10:22:34 09/05/03 Fri finalblade gets up and starts walking with themsome food is what i need and a good nights sleep i think thats what everybody needs eh? (NT) -- Finalblade, 10:46:41 09/05/03 Fri Ark slowly gets up and starts walking in the back of everyone playing with his sling (NT) -- Ark, 10:48:07 09/05/03 Fri* Hmm... I don't think we'll be getting much sleep, lads. Not unless we camp here and go to the holt in the morning. If we go now, there's likely gonna be a grand feast in Rudd's honor, and no chance to sleep, see. So, I have a proposition, lads: Either we go to the holt now, unrested and weary, but with the prospect of a glorious feast ahead, or we camp here with Jadris, have a meager meal, but get well rested, then head to the Holt so as we can party our filthy black guts out. Which'll it be, me hearties? (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 16:20:30 09/05/03 Fri i say camp looks at swiftand you what do you think (NT) -- Finalblade, 16:36:00 09/05/03 Fri Reed perks up, being an imsomnic he choses the first one Thar shoul' beh a grand ol' feast eh?....Co'n' mates, letuz go teh the 'olt -- Reed, 17:06:20 09/05/03 Fri Swift stares off. I'd love a feast... But I like to make an entrance too... I'd rather rest and show up sharpish. We show up early in the morning, then have a day long feast... Yeah... I'd rather camp now. But let's hear other suggestions. (NT) -- Swift, 17:52:59 09/05/03 Fri Well, it would make sense to sleep. After all, you do better in everything when you've a good night's rest. That and a good meal in the morning help. nods slowly, then leans against the wall, almost boredly Well, all of you, decide already! Honestly, it's so trying wasting my belligerent brilliance upon you! Or is beaming a better word? Yes, since belligerent means warlike... (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 18:27:43 09/05/03 Fri Mickle slumps down against a tree in response. I think that we should just try to get some sleep. with that, he closes his eyes and begins dozing. -- Mickle, 19:09:47 09/05/03 Fri Swift looks about. So's we got any other opinions, mates? I'd say 'tis safe to say we'll be campin'... (NT) -- Swift, 15:20:00 09/06/03 Sat well as i said sleep and i think we all agree for once gives a little chuckle under his breath and slumps on a tree and goes to sleep (NT) -- Finalblade, 15:48:05 09/06/03 Sat yes i say slee'p to much bett'er goes into the woods and comes back with a bunch of leafs need somth'ing to slee'p on??? (NT) -- ark, 15:49:18 09/06/03 Sat Swift looks at the two. Right then. For once, I won't chastise you two. It appears the majority of us want to wait. See you all in the morning. He walks off and climbs up into a tree to sleep. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 11:39:36 09/07/03 Sun Rudd lies down next to some bushes. Well, the holt never was prepared fo much of anything... So don't expect a feast right away. There may be one for lunch or dinner but I don't know about breakfast. (NT) -- Rudd, 12:06:14 09/07/03 Sun Thistle scurries up a tree and finds a nice, mossy crook to cuddle up in...and wait for someone to ask her about her slightly odd sleeping habit. But hey, it's comfortable and it works Mumrmfmf...might wake up with a crick in m' neck...'oo cares...sta'bwies...ssschnnrrmmfff....zzzzzz..... (NT) -- Thistle the Mousquirrel, 13:31:31 09/07/03 Sun Swift looks down at Thistle from his higher branch. You're in my tree, love. I hope you don't mind if I fall outta me perch on top of you in the night... He lowers his hat over his eyes and sits still. (NT) -- Swift, 14:54:11 09/07/03 Sun Ark who is doing somthing in the woods comes out and says see you in the morning and goes into the trees (NT) -- Ark, 15:50:49 09/07/03 Sun finalblade gets up i can't sleep here goes into the woods and comes out with some branches and makes a hameck and goes to sleep (NT) -- Finalblade, 15:53:18 09/07/03 Sun Mickle opens one eye and looks after ark and finalblade. how's a beast supposed to get any sleep wid all that ruckus? -- Mickle, 18:27:19 09/07/03 Sun Swift lets out a grunt and yells. SHUT UP ALREADY! M'TRYIN' FOR ME BEAUTY SLEEP! He wraps himself up tighter in his jacket. He tries to stabilize himself, as he really doesn't want to fall down onto Thistle and crush her during the night. (NT) -- Swiftstream the Treedweller, 09:37:11 09/08/03 Mon Reed paces, pulling out a flask and drinking from it Soon enough he passes out, after a couple of flasks* -- Reed Streamline, 17:29:56 09/08/03 Mon ..zzZZ..zzZZ -- Mickle, 18:53:04 09/08/03 Mon Don' even THINK about snorin' ! Kit mutters down Mickle's ear. She moves away, curls up and stuffs her paws in her ears. -- Kit, 10:23:56 09/09/03 Tue the next morning, Mickle gets up with the rising sun. There! I guess they was right...I feel much better! -- Mickle, 19:28:26 09/10/03 Wed Kit sits up with tousled fur and rubs her eyes. Personally mate, m'not a morin' beast...she looks around and can't see anyone else up yet ...an' no o'them is either by the looks of it. Give me a shake o'sommat when they are will yer? she asks Mickle sleepily, before rolling over and dozzing off again. -- Kit, 11:58:37 09/11/03 Thu Swift rolls over and wakes up as he falls out of his perch. Thinking quickly, he reacts the only way a beast that's just woken up can: he slams into the ground with a loud thud and grunts. He looks up, glad to have not crushed Thistle, and dusts himself off as he stands. Mrrrgh... S'not a pleasant way to say hallo to the day, now is it... He pulls out a flask, takes a swig, and leans bleary eyed against his former tree, now grinning to himself whilst waiting for the others to awaken. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 15:11:24 09/11/03 Thu OOC: Forgot this important note... I'm lucky to get this post up as my comp is being screwy... I should be back to posting normally by tomorrow. And as for Rudd, he's having a ragingly hard time getting voy to load recently, so he asked me to let you all know that. We'll probably put a bit of a halt on the quest until he can get his computer sorted. (NT) -- Swift, 15:14:59 09/11/03 Thu OOC: Sorta odd how just as Swift lets everyone know that, I manage to get on voy. Hope I still can tomorrow. BIC: Rudd sits up slowly and sighs. How come I'm always so sleepy when I wake up? One would sorta figure I'd be refreshed. Just doesn't work that way I suppose. He lies back down and stares at the treetops. (NT) -- Rudd, 17:05:21 09/11/03 Thu Thistle stirs a bit, then opens her eyes, to find she has a mild crick in her neck. She stretches luxuriously and hops down from the tree, smiling. Lahdedah, what fun is today, we get to go and meet Prince Rudd's familia! Or, rather, his kingdom...I do hope they've moved past feudalism... (NT) -- Thistle the Odd..., 18:41:46 09/11/03 Thu Mickle looks up from the fire he was tending. ah good! it looks like almost everyone's up. he walks over to Kit and gives her a gentle shake. wakey wakey, kit me otteress... -- Mickle, 19:37:30 09/11/03 Thu The ottermaid pulls herself into a sitting posistion again grumpily. T'anks matey. Oh corkscrews...t'still too early. She spends a while remembering how to stand and ends up hitting her head on a low tree branch, which wakes her up once and for all. -- Kit, 10:47:11 09/12/03 Fri Swift mumbles from over by his tree. Where's Jadris? W'want to set off, I do... Looks around. Where the bloody is said hermetic squirrel? Sighs as he sips at his flask some more. T'appears as Finalblade and Ark disappeared as well. Oh well. We'll give it a bit, and if Jadris, Finalblade, and Ark don't show, we'll make journey to the holt on our own. M'sure it won't be too hard to find... Stares at the pinkish sky. S'a pretty sky, lads. Have a look at it... He points at the sky and smiles. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 17:13:41 09/12/03 Fri Reed mumbles and slowly comes to, staring with horribly blood shot eyes into the woods, he slowly gets up and shuffles over into the wood, mumbling something about taking a wizz and getting some berrys -- Reed Streamline, 17:17:36 09/12/03 Fri Mickle pokes his head out of the cave. yer right, Swift me matey, tis quite pretty...but, fire's so much prettier! pops back into the cave and tends the fire some more. -- Mickle, 18:19:25 09/12/03 Fri oops...change that 'cave' to a 'hut' and we'll be grand... -- Mickle, 18:37:26 09/12/03 Fri Swift leans his head back, staring at the sky some more. I always loved the way that the pink gradually dissapates an' becomes that lovely blue... Then later on at dusk it'll repeat, yet somehow, it'll be different... The passage of time is fascinatin'... The day begins and ends in the same, yet different matter... All is pink... All is pink... Swift keeps mumbling incoherent philosophy while staring upward and waiting for the others to arrive. (NT) -- Swift, 21:53:40 09/12/03 Fri finalblade comes out of the woods looking very hyperhey good morning come get up eh?? (NT) -- finalblade, 03:52:49 09/13/03 Sat ark comes out along with Finalbladeheehee we goin to the wate'r and i drin'k (NT) -- Ark, 03:53:52 09/13/03 Sat Thistle nods, and then begins explaining the scientific reasoning behind sunsets and sunrises. And then just starts humming something about strawberries. (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 06:19:09 09/13/03 Sat Swift reaches out to his side while staring at the sky and grabs Thistle's shoulder. Don't stop talking about sunsets and sunrises, love... I like them... Keep going... Starestarestare. (NT) -- Swift, 12:54:43 09/13/03 Sat There is a shout from the hut, then Mickle comes rolling out of the hut. he comes to a stop at Swift's feet and grins sheepishly. -- Mickle, 18:45:50 09/13/03 Sat Swift looks down at the ferret. Why's you gotta be rollin' into a lad for, mate? He reaches down and picks up Mickle. What's up, mate? You're cutting bad into my staring. (NT) -- Swiftstream, 22:34:51 09/13/03 Sat Less strawberries an' more sunsets and sunrises or yer'll make us all 'ungry. Kit wanders over towards the group and nods at Mickle. Nice impression of a bowlin' ball matey. -- Kit, 06:38:33 09/14/03 Sun swift its not very nice just grabing peoplewalks to the stump of the tree and looks up (NT) -- finalblade, 15:22:51 09/14/03 Sun can we go now im bor'edlooks at everone who some are sleepyi wait her'eand sits on the ground (NT) -- Ark, 15:25:44 09/14/03 Sun Reed stumbles back, his eyes still really blood shot, and trying to button back up his dropfront breeches, he stumbles back into camp, where he wasnt exactly watching the ground. Stepping into the fire he let out a slightly welp and stared down at his footpaws, now incased in fire. He jumped out of the fire, grabbed water and drecnhed out his paws. Sighing in pain he plops down, still drowsy with a hang over -- Reed Streamline, 19:04:10 09/14/03 Sun Mickle grins. good to see someone else who forgot that fire was hot...* sheepishly looks at his smouldering tail.* -- Mickle, 19:11:26 09/14/03 Sun Hmm... Jadris's dissappeared... Right! We're headin' out. He'll catch up I'm sure. Forward, mates. Break camp and all that. We march, er... He pulls out his dirk and spins it on the ground. It points northeast. Grabbing it, he stands. Thataway! Let's go! He swaggers off, staring at the pink sky and humming. (NT) -- Swiftstream Brooktail, 20:41:19 09/14/03 Sun Hmm, we look to be heading northeast, and that would be toward the center of the island...trots after Swift, muttering math to herself and then saying random facts whenever they pass a tree So that would be 4.5 to the power of 5 times pi...ooh, look moss!...and then take the hypotenuse and times it by three... (NT) -- Thistle the Odd, 13:47:33 09/15/03 Mon Mickle continues waving his tail around as he walks. ooo! that stings...I wish that my tail would stop smoking... -- Mickle, 18:27:30 09/15/03 Mon Rudd gets up and follows everybody. Well, it is an island so we have to find the holt eventually right? -- Rudd, 17:18:12 09/16/03 Tue well i guess so Finalblade starts walking beside rudd -- Finalblade, 17:24:09 09/16/03 Tue ark jumps up yes wher'e goin'g puts on a smile and starts walking in the back (NT) -- Ark, 17:25:55 09/16/03 Tue reed slowly follows along a 'ure fer 'angovers? -- Reed, 19:16:46 09/16/03 Tue Fik grins at Reed in a I'm-mocking-your-misery type of way. Sorry mate, don't know what one would be. You could always try not drinkin so much I suppose but it seems to be a wee bit late for that. Guess you're codswalloped eh? Was that the right word? I'm not entirely sure. Codswallop seemed to be a good substitute for different types of cussing. It just doesn't sound right though. He shrugs and continues walking. -- Fik, 16:55:42 09/17/03 Wed
