ENDGAME GROUP 1: The Other Box (Log 2)

[yourghosthost]

[Off-screen, the groups manage to reunite themselves once more. More notable than anything else is the little black floating box, though if any of you have any information you wish to exchange, now would be an excellent time to do so.]

I know this isn’t exactly on the docket, but I intend on heading in there. You’re welcome to join if you’d like.

(ooc: this is the second and final log for group 1 - if you weren’t here for the previous log, feel free to use this as a jumping-in point!)

[Turns around.

Looks up.]

Hi! [waves] I like your outfit.

[roundzero]

It is rather regal, I suppose.

[folkscallmewander]

Are you a Queen? An Empress? Some sort of conqueror?

[She looks like she could take over a planet.]

[roundzero]

Perhaps I could be.

[She likes this one. Flattery will get you everywhere.]

[hallotween]

... Are the others here?

[just kinda. looking around her.]

[roundzero]

Holed up in the manor, I assume. There are not many of us left.

[hallotween]

"Not many?" What happened to everyone else?

[roundzero]

A number of them simply...disappeared. I’m assuming they finally had the chance to pass on, and ran with it.

The weaklings.

[whistlenotchirp]

Why are you sticking around then, ma'am?

[roundzero]

I haven’t had the opportunity.

Besides, I know where I’m going once I pass on. I have much bigger plans than allowing Hades to take me like some sort of coward.

[whistlenotchirp]

...Vaguely ominous and alarming.

I don't suppose you're interested in directing that attention towards Hades and his fellow guardspeople?

[hallotween]

The guy with the weird mustache who was also covered in black goo ran away after we beat him up. So you can probably count him in that group, too.

[roundzero]

Ah, Clayton. Hardly surprising. I hardly noticed he had left.

[folkscallmewander]

Wow.

[Flattery makes friends and if it doesn't work, gets people to trust you.]

So what're you workin' on in here? Seems like you got a lovely mansion to live in.

[roundzero]

Wasting away, for the most part. Despite my best efforts.

[folkscallmewander]

Well, we got some good news for you! We're bustin' you outta here!

[roundzero]

Is that so.

[folkscallmewander]

Uh-huh. We're on the hunt for a magic symbol that'll stop all these folks from stickin' each other into boxes when he activate it. So once we get out of this box, y'all are free to leave, too!

[roundzero]

Magic symbol.

[...hm. interesting.]

Pray tell, what does your "magic symbol" look like?

[wannagetsmote]

Just... save whatever conquering you want to do for another day. I already have enough butts to kick.

[roundzero]

Hmhmhmhm.

[As if speaking to a child.]

Is that so, brave warrior?

[wannagetsmote]

Uh-huh.

[Spoken like a child. Maui you're not helping.]

And your butt is about to be on it, lady. Don't patronize me, I'm a demi-god. And probably like... a thousand years older than you.

[roundzero]

[pfff]

How quaint.

[stenchus_rodentus]

[Since they are on the subject...]

And what...office do you hold exactly in the scheme of things?

[roundzero]

None.

I am a victim.. The same as you, I imagine. Hades offered me a position. He offered many of us positions.

Only the fools took them.
