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.]]

"I think he means we're supposed to break the curse," Squall prompted her.

"Do any of the magic people have Esuna?"

"To be fair," Natalie drawled, "that's been the case even with some characters he hasn't played."

"Wait, we're saving people now?" Squall asked. "I thought we had to cut off the king's head?"
furnaceface: (Oop!)

"... Really?"

Jono was just as surprised as you were, Topher.

"Oh my god, Aaploe-" Still pronouncing it differently. "-is gonna pick up one of her many swords with a Plan for Asthmahelm's horse pretty soon!"

"Yes, you are," Billy said firmly, hoping Topher would just go with him on this one before one of the girls strangled him. "If you want to do things like this without having things bigger than dice thrown at you."
furnaceface: (Big Mouth)

"Jon-o-thon."

Said slowly. Very slowly. As if he understood that the prospect of using his actual name might be a little much for Topher to grasp.

"Must be horrible," Karla deadpanned back. "Being surrounded by all these people daring to have fun."

"My name. It's Jonothon."

And when a man his size gave you a look like that while rolling up his character sheet like so, it was probably a wise idea to just go with it.

"...Like meteors," Squall added with a bit of a smirk.

"... Can Thorgabella just give it a solid rap on the head with her club?"

It was a totally valid question. Thorgabella was dim. She'd make the attempt.

"Aeverready!!" Karla corrected. "And she'd better not touch--whatever my horse's name is!"

...Wait, what?

"When did we get a ballista?" Squall asked. "It wouldn't have fit on the boat."
glacial_queen: (Thoughtful)

Re: Embark: To the Gnome King!: UH OH, YOUR BOAT IS BROKEN

"You should probably roll for that," Karla said. "Just to make sure. I mean, you did just leave your horse standing around for anyone who wanted steak."

"It'd be messy if I do it," Squall replied. "All my character has is a dagger. Someone with a longer blade and more strength should do it."
glacial_queen: (Yelling)

Karla wasn't going to deign to respond, fixing her hair with dignity until she realized--

"MY EARRINGS ARE MISSING!"
