It's still not enough, though. Kath had 3 votes before Izzy.

Kath is lynched.

Brinniel · 06-22-2009, 10:29 PM

It's Night again, btw. Though I should be stating the obvious.

I've given up on writing the Day narrations immediately following. It just gives me another excuse to stay up later than I already should. RL can be so annoying...

Nerwen · 06-22-2009, 10:29 PM

You understand that I haven't had time to read the thread properly... so I still have no idea what the case against Kath was, apart from general submarinish-ness.

If there was a good case, Mac's jumping on my vote looks rather bad.

EDIT:X'd with the Captain.

Wit' th' death 'o a pair more overnight, th' number 'o th' crew had nearly split in half. Th' band 'o pirates were gettin' nervous now; wit' th' uncertainty 'o knowin' their mutineers, they could not help but fear that th' end was near.

By th' latter half 'o th' day, several crewmembers were feelin' uneasy 'bout Ham-Hands Izzy. Wit' her co-conspirator tendencies, she was becomin' a nuisance to many. 'An even though they couldn't confirm her alignment, some agreed it'd just be better to get her out 'o th' way now.
"Better we murder her than an innocent," said Almost-Blind Nerwen.
"But it be even better if we killed a mutineer," spoke Shark Tooth Shasta.
"Then why don't we murder Mac Sparrow?" piped up Lommy th' Infected enthusiastically.

But th' others ignored their quartermaster 'n agreed that Poop Deck Kath was lookin' far more aggressive than Ham-Hands Izzy.
"Cowerin' Gwath has be cowerin' away in his bunk fer a pair days now, yet she thinks it'd be right to murder him? Surely thar can be no jolly in thoughts like that," stated Boromir th' Malformed.
Majority 'o hands agreed she had to be off.
"I have a bad feelin' 'bout 'tis," sighed Mac Sparrow.

"No reason to use up all our energy killin' her. So why not just leave Poop Deck Kath to dry out on th' poop deck?" suggested Short Ruth Mith.
Shark Tooth Shasta grabbed hold 'o th' piper 'n chained her to th' floor 'o th' poop deck, her arms 'n legs spread apart. Once he was done, th' crew turned 'n went their separate ways. Thar they would leave Poop Deck Kath fer th' elements to take care 'o her. Th' remainin' sun was still quite steamin' 'n its rays burned into Kath's white skin.
"Guys, 'tis really be not fair," she cried as she sizzled on th' deck.
Luckily, Poop Deck Kath did not have to wait fer th' elements to take her because th' birds came first.

It was at first a small flock 'o seagulls circlin' overhead, but within a couple hours it became hundreds. Poop Deck Kath watched them, mesmerized by their numbers, 'n then her eyes widened in horror as th' circlin' came to a sudden halt 'n th' seagulls dove right at her. Lookin' fer a tasty treat, th' birds dug their beaks into her as Kath shrieked in terror. They pecked 'n pecked at her 'til they were tired 'n could feed no more. Th' sun was finally settin' as th' final seagulls flew off leavin' behind th' bloody mess 'o Kath. Not only was she bloody, but Poop Deck Kath was also covered in bird poo 'n feathers, th' poor lass.

"Ugh, I could really use a bath right 'bout now," sighed th' ghost 'o Kath. But th' best she could woe fer was a rain shower 'n unfortunately fer her, thar would not be one fer several more days.

Wait. What?!

Brinniel · 06-23-2009, 10:10 PM

Durin' th' nightfall, th' aggressors prowled through th' ship, searchin' fer their next victim. They approached one 'o th' several bunks 'n upon seein' th' scurvy pirate thar sleepin' peacefully, they quickly decided 'tis would be th' chosen victim.
"He looks easy enough to murder," said one aggressor.
"'An I doubt anyone gunna expect him to be th' next to be off," said another.

'An so without further comment, they quickly gagged their victim 'n snatched him by th' wrists. Th' scurvy pirate struggled 'n cried out as th' mutineers dragged him up to th' deck, but once again no one could hear his muffled pleas fer help. When they finished, th' aggressors were quite satisfied. They stood admirin' their great work before runnin' off, snickerin'.

Th' followin' mornin', th' crew returned to th' top deck to discover Gangrenous Inziladun Jones at his usual post. He lay flopped over th' ship's steerin' wheel, his chest impaled by one 'o its spokes.
"Well, that be not a pretty sight at all," said Lommy th' Infected.
"Now how we ever supposed to navigate wit' Inziladun Jones in th' way?" wondered Almost-Blind Nerwen.
Th' crew teamed together to pry Inziladun from th' wheel, but wit' wee luck. He was indefinitely stuck.
"Don't worry 'bout it," th' dead pilot told th' others. "I may be impaled by me own wheel, but that dont mean I ain't still steer." He demonstrated fer th' crew.
"Eh, I suppose that gunna do," said Shark Tooth Shasta. "Wit' our diminishin' crew, we must take what we can get, 'n right now that be corpses."

So even as a ghost, Inziladun Jones remained th' pilot 'o th' Grey Gaurhoth, though from 'tis point ahead, th' ship sailed in a zigzag direction.

Day 6 has begun. Now post.

Haha, you really should read the title of the post, Sally. I was just putting up a save for when I get the Day's narration done.

Ahhhh. Whoops, sorry.

Nerwen · 06-23-2009, 10:16 PM

Why Eönwë, of all people? YesterDay he made the most cobblerish post in the history of cobblery:

(Commenting on my listing the Night-kills as non-wolves):

*slaps self*

satansaloser2005 · 06-23-2009, 10:20 PM

Heh. I was about to say, Nerwen....

I had the same question though. Is that even possible? I mean if the mod's completely twisted in the head they might allow it but why would the pack do that? They might 'clear' one of their own but would lose that person's voting power, as well as the chance to get another innocent down. Makes no sense.

Nerwen · 06-23-2009, 10:20 PM

Right, Zil's dead.

EDIT:X'd with Sally.
