Sorry, had to deal with a blackout

No problem. (Big storm? Or just everyone's air-conditioners on and the grid can't handle the load?)

Or was it copious amounts of alcohol and a searing headache when you regained consciousness?

Or was it a variant of a Marvel Supervillain you were dispatching?

Big storm, whole neighborhoods got a blackout.

Of course, I was definitely kicking down supervillain butt during that, haha

Excellent.  Carry on!

Hmm, interesting thinking, Flore and Trina. Let me sleep on what I want to be down there (or if I want nothing problematic to be down there, and if instead I want something else to happen)... I'll be back tomorrow...

So I was going to team up Winter and Bill with Flore and Trina... but... then I realized-- Flore and Trina post the fastest, out of all of you.

Now I'm thinking of sending Winter and Bill Carol's way instead. That might work.

Anyone got any thoughts about this...?

I'm pretty easy going either way. If it's a question of post rate, we can speed up. Most of my games post at several times a week.

Always interested meeting other undead.  I don’t mind slowing down a bit to accommodate that… depends how much slower and if Flore is keen.

Doesn’t have to happen right away either.

I'm happy to meet any other undead (PCs, at least).

Post rate has slowed a bit because I have unexpectedly found myself a full time student again while also working full time.  Opportunity for free education I couldn't pass up.  I will try to keep posting more regularly.

Yeah, I'm fine with slowing up as well if it means we get to have more undead friends.

Hmmmm... but what does Winter say about this?

(Nothing so far, which makes me wonder...)

Wow, this is interesting-- have one or more people tried to stake Flore before (and missed the heart)? Fascinating. I look forward to hearing more...

Two days ago I had NO idea we were gonna go in this direction but I'm glad I thought of it

Yay, power of making stuff up as one goes along!

In reply to The GM (msg # 160):

I'm here. Just sick and having some RL issues. I can try and increase my posting rate to match other players. I'd love to meet some more undead friends.

Uhhhhhh okay if you're all sure... I'll try to steer for a Winter & Bill & Flore & Trina team-up

EDIT: ...anyway, Bill and Winter... y'all's turn to talk IC

Been busy today. Hope to post more tomorrow.

In the meantime, though:

Trina? I've been waiting for you-- hope you haven't been waiting for me...

I was, but have updated to move us along.  Also got distracted :)

Thanks.

Your turn Flore!

Winter? I super don't want to pressure you, but-- you okay?

I’ve been sick and moving. First time in days I’ve had the time and energy to post. Life hates me.

I wondered if health issues might be involved. Sorry to hear of it. Thanks for letting me/us know. Post in your own time-- sincerely, I don't wish to pressure you. I hope you feel better soon.

And then I fell down steps at work and suffered numerous injuries and a severe concussion. To hell with 2023.

In reply to Winter (msg # 170):

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you're feeling better.

My brains are still a wee bit scrambled, and my body remains sore, but I live. I'm a few years past the age of quickly bouncing back from something like this.
