The Duke is no longer himself, Blind Marge shared some details about the beginning of the curse and the Spanish guy left taking Neri and Icarus with him. They're in a better place now. Not dead though! Haha.

Found all your stuff already? If not you better act quick because most of the townsfolk are leaving, they've been stuck here for a long while and some have their real family waiting for them. They'll take whatever they can with them as they go so there's looting and chaos all around the usually so peaceful town.

It also seems that the destruction of the apple trees set off the crows. They're making a horrible noise as they fly over your heads and kaw loudly. More birds seem to arrive to the scene every minute. It's almost like you're stuck in a Hitchcock movie. Time to go?

[ mission: look for hook. i mean the map. ]

[ staying away from the windows for now ]

I could, maybe, I don't know, try to blast them all away and we could make a run for it?

[wolfsoul]

[ standing behind them because the window is too tiny for all of them to see through at the same time. guys. ]

There's a lot of them, think you could handle it?

[rhymeswithdesign]

[busts in through a side door with the power of thumbs. slams it shut and leans back against it, mildly bloody.]

Strewth. That's a fucking lot of birds.

[dices]

I don't know. [ scratches his beard. it's getting big again oop ] I could go out, do a test drive, dive back in if I can't.

[cabineyes]

[ picks a black feather from conny's hair. ]

Someone should really lock the door.

[rhymeswithdesign]

They ain't using the knobs, mate, I don't think it matters.

[locks the door he's leaning against.]

[foodporn]

Hey!

[thuds against door outside. tried to slide in after him. smacked up against it instead. fuckin unlock it you douchebags]

[rhymeswithdesign]

Oh fuck, not everyone's here!

[unlocks door and drags bo inside.]

Sorry, I'm sorry!

[wolfsoul]

Open the door, there's someone outside!

[ attempts to push hook and john out of the way. ]

[crotchbite]

Because they might gain opposable thumbs?

[ u ok??

omfg cosntantine no dass my qurl outside.

yanks him off the door and opens it, tugging her in ]

Are you an idiot? There are still people outside.

[cabineyes]

[ that turned ugly in no time. takes a step back. ]

Lovely.

[foodporn]

[holding a crow in one hand like xena the crow warrior princess. tugged by two people. frazzled hair. looks around dinky town hall like what the hell you guys? meanwhile crow makes gurgly noises.]

Thanks... [half-sarcastic. thanks for ditching me. but also thanks for remembering to not ditch me. looks over at hand when she realizes she's still holding the gross little vermin thing and tosses it away with a ew] It's like the crow-pocalypse out there. What did we do to piss them off so much?

[armedarchaeologist]

Oh shit.

[pinches the air by his shoulder. looks down. grimaces.]

Oh shit. Do any of you have my radio? Someone— We need to contact the, the people still out there.

[wolfsoul]

I saw someone taking cover in the houses. If they shut the windows in time they should be alright.

[ we need to stay calm. ]

[crotchbite]

[ slaps constantine hands away and gives him a Look. you know. i'll break you with my thighs look. seriously not cool.

she was going to point out the crow but she noticed. okay. stares at it and makes a face at it. yep. deserved that. ]

They started the appear about the time the apples rotten off. [ pulls a feather out of bo's hair. proper gay. parallels with hooks. people make gifsets about it on tumblr ]

[rhymeswithdesign]

[throws his hands up and wanders deeper inside the town hall. away from all the thunking.]

[dices]

[ rubs his neck in anxiety and looks outside the window. where are the rest of their peeps, man?? ]

Check the community bag, Dan. [ tilts his head over to it. aren't you glad the big guy got it in ] I don't know if they still have it, though.

[cabineyes]

[ pokes the crow with his boot. he doesn't look too worried, it could be worse. i mean birds? ]

No matter how terrifying and upsetting this all is I'd say the birds are the least of our worries right now.

[ tilts his head. oh yeah. ]

Or your worries.

[armedarchaeologist]

Thanks Nick.

[kneels and starts to paw through the weaponry. looks up and frowns at hook.]

"Your"...?

[cabineyes]

Even if we... [ points the hook at everyone. ] I mean you, manage to get through today alive it doesn't mean you're going anywhere.

The map isn't working anymore.

[armedarchaeologist]

Is there a reason we should be worried that you keep correcting to "you" or is that just stating your intent to head off on your own?

[linguist problems. also the map has not been nice to them so far, so. this thing first.]

[foodporn]

[thx hel. fixes her shirt and throws a glower toward the window. i guess it's curtained. it's the thought that counts. and the thought is f u birds.]

It's done this before hasn't it? I'm sure it'll fix itself. [and if it doesn't well it hasn't been that useful anyway. they'll find their own way]

[crotchbite]

[ looks at hook with narrowed eyes. really you want to do this now we're still missing a couple ]

The problem is that it hasn't fixed itself since the forest.

[cabineyes]

So unless you know the magic words that unlock it, you're staying here as bird food.

[ turns to daniel. ]

And yes, mate, I was referring to my own plans.

[wolfsoul]

[ sits outside the commenting order. leans against the door. guys i know i'm new and all ]

[ but you didn't have to cut me off. ]
