Much like what was said about Enrei, I'm sitting back going...

'Titus this is a horrible idea'

In reply to Titus Blackwell (msg # 139):

I'm not sure kicking him TWICE was strictly necessary :P

In reply to Brennan Otthild (msg # 140):

kicking a man when he's down is never strictly necessary.

The first one was to make sure he was done.

The second was because he was annoying.

The cloak was amidst the  rags

In reply to Titus Blackwell (msg # 143):

Turns out today is going to be a complete unmtitaged disaster, my boss and his boss already got into a yelling match over who gets me.  I feel like a wishbone...

In reply to Titus Blackwell (msg # 144):

Just an FYI

I signed and submitted my offer letter for my boss’ job yesterday. I am the new assistant project director of the NCI clinical repository!

And I am on my way to the airport now.   Will be returning next Friday.

I’m going to make Marion catch up to us by the time we get back ;)

In reply to Titus Blackwell (msg # 145):

Awesome!  Congrats!

I'll be out of town for thr week on vacation, so posting will be sparse.

In reply to GM (msg # 146):

Catching up, finally, after travels, holiday, etc.

I have nothing planned for the rest of the evening until you choose where to be murdered in your sleep (the gates to DuckTown are shut), unless you plan on sneaking back in somehow.

In reply to GM (msg # 147):

Titus feels very good about himself now and doesn't have a lot he wants to do tonight.  Good with bedding down in the cart whenever you guys are ready.

In reply to Titus Blackwell (msg # 148):

Fine with sleeping in the cart if Cyril's cool with it. We'll set a watch, I guess, while we're at it. And we probably want to move the cart someplace less conspicuous that Cyril's chosen peddling location.

I'm good for the night too.  Ciryl's definitely sleeping in the cart, I'm not sure that all five of us are gonna fit in it though.

In reply to Ciryl Fontaine (msg # 150):

Nope, but you can certainly take turns.

In reply to GM (msg # 151):

We probably want 2 folks on watch anyway. If there's room for 3, no harm no foul. If there's at least room for 2 then somebody sleeps up front in the coach section where the driver would be.

Incidentally do you have animals pulling the thing? Do we need to stable them? Guard them? Feed them? We can't keep them yoked in all night (can we?)

In reply to Brennan Otthild (msg # 152):

There’s a mule.  I really doubt shantytown has stables, I’d just unhitch it and either tie some reigns to the cart or a stake, or however pack animals are supposed to be let to rest out in the wilds, which i’m treating this as.

There are some grassy areas around the lake apart from the shanty's if you like.

In reply to GM (msg # 154):

Sure that'd probably be nicer than just trying it up surrounded by dirt streets.

is this the second or third day of Ciryl's alloted time to hawk his wares?

In reply to Ciryl Fontaine (msg # 156):

3rd

I think you missed the part where I marched up to the boy rather than negotiate with the girl on his behalf.

In reply to Ciryl Fontaine (msg # 158):

So I did.  Modifying post.

In reply to GM (msg # 159):

So: the kidnapping will happen tomorrow.

Does anyone have any business until then?  Depending on the nature of it, we can hand-wave.

Alternatively, you can certainly tell Burke that it would be better to nab Titus tonight instead of waiting.  I'm fine with that since I don't have much else going on apart from the investigation.

I have the meet a kid and give him some firecrackers.  I thought we were doing the sting today or i'd have made plans.

In reply to Ciryl Fontaine (msg # 161):

I'm fine with nabbing him tonight or fast-forwarding to it. I have nothing further to do and time is not our friend.

In reply to Brennan Otthild (msg # 162):

I'm down with either.  If time is a problem then we can go tonight.
