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 glacial_witch, brat_intraining, harpy_daughter and most especially not_a_parakeet for humoring me and teaching me how this works. YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST AND I LOVE YOU.]]

"What did you get?" Jono peered over to see if Squall's character was at least smarter than his. "If you've got a half-shred of intelligence to yours, Thorgy here would probably be willing to go and smash things for you. Probably in exchange for biscuits."

"A rogue Halfling," Squall told him. "Whatever that is. High intelligence, dexterity, and charisma, but low strength and wisdom. I don't have any biscuits in my inventory, but I have some copper pieces. How much do biscuits cost?"

"Hell if I know," Jono snorted. "I'm pretty sure your halfling could just tell my half-orc to threaten the barkeep with her club and you'd get them for free."

Neutral and stupid. It worked out nicely.

Squall shrugged. "Sure, let's do that. Do we... have to tell Topher or something? I'm not sure how it helps us kill the goblin king, though."

"Hell with Topher," Jono replied, shrugging. "Plonker looks absurd in that cape anyhow."

Well, it was true.

"We're supposed to roll dice or something, but I figure we could just flip a coin or something to see if it works."

Re: Tavern: Get Your Mission

"We could just decide it DID work, if we want to do that," Squall countered. "If we're going to do stuff without him, why bother with flipping a coin?"

Re: Tavern: Get Your Mission

[furnaceface]

"... Point." Jono tilted his head, and then made an executive decision. "Thorgabella threatens the barkeep for biscuits, and gets... some. Do we have to write this down?"

Re: Tavern: Get Your Mission

Squall shrugged. "You probably should, or else we'll forget. I don't really care."

Re: Tavern: Get Your Mission

[furnaceface]

"Honestly, neither do I," Jono admitted. "Let's assume we got a... magic bag with an infinite amount of biscuits. That way, we don't need to keep track."

Yes. That would work nicely.

Re: Tavern: Get Your Mission

"That's silly," Squall told him. "You can't carry an infinite amount of anything. Just say 99."

BECAUSE THAT WAS LESS SILLY.

Re: Tavern: Get Your Mission

Jono squinted a little, not entirely certain if that would make it more or less difficult to keep track of what was going on in the biscuit department.

"... Whatever."

It seemed like the best word to use, under the circumstances.
