Okay. The world was maybe almost over. Topher was more than a little freaked.

So out came the dice and the cape, and after making a quick annoucement, he set up at a toadstool with some character sheets for some pre-apocalyptic Dungeons and Dragons.

Kid had priorities.

[[OCD is up! Yep, idea stolen from Buffy 7x22, "Chosen." Anyone can play, and if you want to ICly be talked into it, lemme know and I'll have Topher get naggy. I have an AIM chat for this if you wanna pop in -- rpwithinanrpyegods. Have fun!

OH, and a million thanks to [livejournal.com profile] glacial_witch, [livejournal.com profile] brat_intraining, [livejournal.com profile] harpy_daughter and most especially [livejournal.com profile] not_a_parakeet for humoring me and teaching me how this works. YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST AND I LOVE YOU.]]

Congratulations, Jono, you just managed to get Squall to crack up a little.

ONLY A LITTLE.

"Is this you?" Rinoa asked. "Do you really get to put yourself in the game like this? You're already making us do stupid stuff. You don't need to be another weird short dude in a cape."

"...Australia?" Squall asked. He wasn't too clear on this world's geography.

"No meteors, please!" Billy said, putting a hand in front of Topher like that would help. "You'll have to excuse him, he's still learning more advanced social skills."

Mind you I've only played one game of actual D&D vs. other systems, but it was memorable for the fact that [livejournal.com profile] heromaniac and our friend H were playing the same character, a healer with MPD, and they each played one personality. Sadly that was the most interesting thing that happened. No one even cast Magic Missile.

"They're ALL him," Squall pointed out. "He's pretending to be everything."

"He should learn some of the basics first," Rinoa said primly. "Like being nice to me so I don't set him on fire with magic. That's a good one."

"I'm going to..."

Still nothing useful on his character sheet.

"Sneak up behind them and pick their pockets?"

Re: Embark: To the Gnome King!: Shit. We may be prisoners.

"Do we have to kill someone again?"

It was such an idle question.

"I'll just have to heal him if you do, so it's not even worth the energy," Billy said. "And I promise I won't let you be sacrificed in return."

Squall was looking at his character sheet. "Probably. But this says I can pick locks, so at least we can escape?"

"With a ballista!" Karla suggested. Helpfully.

With the ballista he did not have.

Kenzi stuck her tongue out at Natalie, then let go of Karla with one last hair-pull. "Real."

"Except a horse," Karla pointed out.

BECAUSE IT WAS MANDATORY.
