Night blankets the villages south of the wall. While the pacifistic Gagarians are huddling around what may be the last bowls they'll ever smoke, the Hildnr are preparing to march and ride out in force come the dawn. Thankfully, you're far enough north that the nights are a hell of a lot longer than normal. Looks like you have about fourteen hours to kill.

You'll probably want to make a stop at the armory to get equipped, at some point, but there's also a fair amount of feasting happening where a bard is telling tales of the Hildnr's victorious history. The Blood Queen is in attendance, accepting oaths and blessing the warriors.

Of course, if what you'd rather do is train, the training yards are open, and there's a small barracks hall that's been outfittedwith clean furs and a roaring fire so you can rest before unleashing your bloodlust. Thoughtful!

Just don't forget: you still gotta find the blood champion, save the helpless stoner fratboys, and make it over that fuckhuge wall before lunchtime tomorrow.

[ sneaking around the stables. ]

[ riding a griffin can't be that hard now can it. ]

[ladyjohannaii]

Not all that much, but the first drink really knocked my bollocks off.

[it really did. this is a little bit of a sobering thought, but he's still chuckling. wacky fun times.]

Probably I'd blame the wacky backy actually.

[thisbit]

[ drops head to the blankets. ]

[ ears flatten. ]

[ at least no one is groping my ass. ]

[cabineye]

[ you people keep asking that. ]

You're welcome.

[ takes the bottle back. ]

[foodporn]

[alright that does get a little laugh, incredulous as it might be]

You're high? That's a first impression that's going to stick, I'll tell you right now.

[appropriates his drink before he does any more damage]

It's for your own good. You're welcome.

[ladyistcrap]

[what are you going to do, take off on your own]

[pareidoll]

[picks phone back up and sonics at it with the screwdriver]

Not just for the rum.

[i know you by now]

[mercyless]

[ someone should go look for that period princess before things go to shit. ]

[ makes sure no one's around before she starts picking the lock. ]

[ladyjohannaii]

Not the first time, surely shan't be the last.

[too bad it's not all that representative of constantineness. halfheartedly chases his drink as it gets further away from him. bo's probably right.]

All right, cheers. You weren't with that lot before, were you?

[cabineye]

Your words, not mine.

[ takes a (manly) sip from the bottle. ]

I did you a favor, lass.

[fairyvagina]

[reaches over and gently scruffs at him between the ears]

Can't stop you from bein' pet though.

[ladyistcrap]

[they have a plan michonne don't fuck up the plan STICK TO THE PLAN dont be that guy]

[you're waking the griffins up]

[pareidoll]

You don't do favors.

[cabineye]

What makes you say that?

As far as I can see you and that lad are in great terms right now. That road trip really did wonders, didn't it?

[ that was so gross. ]

[thisbit]

[ tongue lolls for a moment before he remembers himself. ]

[ whatever, it feels nice. no judging. ]

[mercyless]

[ always that guy. ]

[ finishes with the lock and slides in quietly. ]

[ladyistcrap]

[the griffins housed in the stalls start to wake up, rearing restlessly at the intruder]

[you're attracting attention from the villagers]

[pareidoll]

[they're on good terms, yeah, but underlying problems are still underlying]

[points screwdriver at him]

Why?

[we're back to that again]

[foodporn]

You'd recognize me, trust me.

[you don't just forget a face and tits like these]

No, I was here when the Hildnr brought the girls in, they said that you guys were looking for a way in. Operation: Mrs. Doubtfire is my fault. You're welcome for that too.

[fairyvagina]

Hey, I'm sure it does.

[lifts up after a moment and pats the fur back again]


Ya hungry? I think I brought too much. When I tried to get what I wanted, they said it wasn't warrior enough and then just piled things on until they thought I was ready. I'm all for warrior spirit, but honestly this much food might kill me.

[cabineye]

Why?

[ leans back. please don't point things at me. ]

Shouldn't you know.

[mercyless]

[ looks around, there's a bucket of dried meat on the floor. probably part of their breakfast. ]

[ tosses them some food, hoping it'll calm them down. ]

[pareidoll]

Yeah, I should.

[sonics him]

[can sonics be lie detectors. she's finding out right now]

[ladyjohannaii]

I reckon I would at that.

[no you don't. of course this whole group is very memorable. nice everything. on everyone. unfair.]

Well then thanks for everything, love. I'd toast you, but someone seems to have nicked my drink.

[what the fuck is a doubtfire? is that a hamlet joke?]

[cabineye]

[ you know he's always lying. what's the point. ]

What's that?
