Aright I've been giving it some thought as to how we should handle this death in our group. I don't really want to have a funeral (unless you others think we should

) I was thinking of having us linger at the Inn for perhaps the night.

I thought perhaps a good way of handling this would be to have a relative of Hugo's in Budgeford, since Frogmorton is not too far away. Have them show up and offer to take Hugo's body home. Also this would be a good time for us to have Mira go home, at the insistence of the adult relative. That is however up to you Boromir, if you would like to continue writing for Rudy and Mira then she can refuse. Then as all this is happening Bunny will announce that she is going on in the morning. This gives us all a reason to post if our characters go on with the journey (which I'm hoping they will)

I would like to get us on the road again as I have some things planned that I would like to set into motion

Well, my character's not actually involved in this, but just from the RPGer's point of view, I think that's a good idea, Valier (I almost wrote Bunny

).

And yay, I am looking forward to what you have thought of for the journey

So is everyone busy this week then? I would like it if everyone could let everyone else know when they are able to post. I want this thing to start and keep going, not die out again. I believe anyone can post, no need to wait

Since I'm now done with my final exams, I should have no limits as to when I can post. Granted, I do have a couple of ordinary exams next week and I have to complete the works for an art course, but I should find the half an hour it takes to write a post. So, whenever you need me.

I think it's most up to Boro right now, though...

Legate of Amon Lanc · 09-26-2008, 06:33 AM

I think I will post for Michael either today or tomorrow at most, as soon as I put together something...

EDIT: Wow! 3003rd post? I haven't noticed the 3000th!

Legate of Amon Lanc · 09-27-2008, 07:05 AM

All right, I have posted now again. One note to the very ending of my post, I left it the way that Michael would probably react to the really current situation after somebody else of you posts what exactly will be going on out there; I did not want him to come into the middle of the process when several people were just told to stay inside etc.

I thought I could eventually, if anyone of you feels like it, change the ending, for example to "At he moment he passed through the door, he stumbled into somebody coming from the other side." If there are any people going inside, it may be possible to incorporate Michael into this and make a dialogue with him there or whatever. But as I don't know yet who, if anybody, will be coming inside, I left it like that. In any case, do as you see fit when it comes to him coming there.

Are we stuck again? Please, no! What about Rudy and the folks, Boro? Or should I go on and continue? But I would like to see your picture of what's going to go on outside, these are your characters after all, not mine.
