"Good gods, Sug, I heard a limerick version of this! There once was a clergyman's daughter
Who detested the pony her father had bought her,
 until she found...."


She finishes it, and then recites the sequel about the girl's boyfriend Tony...

Elaina snickers.

"What is it about limericks?  Is there some kind of rule that they always have to be naughty?"

Re: Seekers of the Flame

"A whole horse?  Or just part of one?"  Evelina looks sidelong at Elaina, and both break out laughing.

"Never mind us, Masugatan.  We used to make fun of everyone back home."

Christine just keeps an eye on where they are going, not really getting the humour, and not really wanting to!

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 135):

Valerie's limericks may have caused Christine to have made a phobia check at +4.


In addition to that, hearing rolls all

Fortunately Christine is focused on everything but the naughty limericks going on behind her as she and Chris move ahead of the talkative one...

[Private to GM: Rolled 5 for hearing, Per 12. Rolled 6 under for the phobia, so she has mentally shut out the conversation as per previous post, focusing instead on where they are going!]

Jednesa is humming to herself, trying to find a decent marching song to fit the occasion...

Re: Seekers of the Flame

Hearing everyone else getting into the mood for a proper marching song, Jednesa begins to sing out (extremely loudly):

"Příliš horké na dnešní život,
Dnes bojuje příliš mnoho nepřátel,
Pochodoval příliš daleko aby odešel bez zabití dnes,
Co je nebezpečí? Nebezpečí!"
...


[Private to GM: Too hot for living today,
Too many foes to fight today,
Marched too far to leave without killing today,
What's up danger?  Danger!


To the tune of What's Up Danger

There is a faint rustling in a tree off to the side, a bit louder than a squirrel.

"Jednessa, just a minute, please...what was that noise in the trees?"

She points to the area in question.

Re: Seekers of the Flame

Jednesa stops and turns to look at Christine (and thus the exact opposite direction of the rustling).

Re: Seekers of the Flame

Evelina moves as quietly as possible toward the tree with the rustle, uncoiling her whip as she goes and flipping it into a ready position.  After a few steps, she veers to the left and jerks her head to the right as she heads for a position two or three yards to the left of the tree.

Re: Seekers of the Flame

Elaina keeps a few steps behind her Queen, also loosening her whip, and veers right at her Holiness's head jerk, finishing two or three yards to the right of the tree.  Once she stops, she looks up into the branches.

Masu stops singing, draws Butcher’s Blade and gets ready to do some rustling of his own.

Christine creates a fireball as she seeks the source of the arrow.

"We are under attack!"

Re: Seekers of the Flame

Jednesa turns and seeing the Frog sisters surrounding the tree with weapons ready she finally groks the situation.  She gently sets the cart's tongue down and eases into a sprinter's crouch in preparation to rush the tree...

The barmaid checks on Masugatan,  while readying a throwing axe.


Up in the tree, an archer wearing a dark ragged surcoat is trying to draw another arrow.
