    "Oh come on!" Terry yells, breaking into a sprint to wrap his arms around Faust and maybe hitch a ride on his temporal current.

    Two days later...

    Flamingulls wheel and dance against the pink sky on the horizon, overlong tail feathers trailing in delicate spirals behind them. Their trills and chirps mix with the slow roll of the waves below as they caress the pale curves of the shore, far gentler than their cousins that crash against the Idollo coast only miles away. Here and there, wooden poles have been planted in the white sands, shrouds of Hot Pink silk draped across them to offer shelter from the warmth of the sun. Tourists linger in the shade, reclined on towels and long chairs, Red, Orange, and Gold beach wear exposing them for the outsiders they are. Men and women in thin tunics carry trays of icy drinks and fresh fruit to the parched or hungry, appearing as needed with a smile and a bow.

    Beyond the alabaster sands, rolling hills of rosy grass, speckled with cherry blossom trees and bright pink flowers. Further away, the visitor cabins with their curved roofs and paper walls. Further still, the tall walls of the Eastern Adon Temple, where beautiful men and women in very little dance in celebration of life.

    At the far end of the beach, beside a thin little dock, the AHS Adamant rests in the shallows, tropical fish swimming curiously around its treads as they soak beneath the surface of the perfectly clear, impossibly blue water. A small, and very special group gathered beside it on the bleached wood...

    [Masn]
    I inhale deeply and tilt my head back to appreciate the sun. After a moment, I look back down at the assembled Unbound, throwing my arms wide to greet them. "Welcome, Unbound, to Adon Island! The City's finest resort destination! I've shuffled some credits around through your various accounts and have set each group up with your own cabin! A tab has been opened and all expenses will be handled by yours truly. The weather is perfect, the water is warm, and the bars are all open!" I beam, the feet of my projection clipping slightly through the sand. "Nothing could possibly go wrong!"

    (2 Days Ago)
    [Fregdup]
    Inquisit's searches bring up a handful of useful factoids: Inquizzit is a rapper from Idollo, had a couple of top ten hits and is still producing albums, Why? being his latest. The .50 Magnus is far too common to find anything on, but Karso Thetisson brings up a rap sheet of various petty crimes. Carl Segerri has a record too - lots of minor crimes, and none of it ever stuck in court.

    [Iddil]
    The Pizza Guy remains impassive.



    All groups are in Masn right now. Lemit, and Karsif, if you want to have done things in the past two days, put them in indent, size 1. Yasteb, you are no longer two days ahead.

    "Remember my dilz," Carcer growls. He throws himself forward in space and backward in time, just enough to give him an extra bit of speed as he tries to grab and pin Faust with Drake and Terry.

    Sofie stops by the Hex Tower and upgrades her trait, and on the way to the resort purchases some beach appropriate wear.

    Sofie walks in, the sun warming her hide and glinting off her shiny orange horns. Her top-half is covered by a bikini top and around her waist is a thin cloth wrapped and tied so that it hangs around her legs. The major designs on all her clothing is a rich orange. A hand on her waist and her eyes shaded behind the orange-tinted lenses of her glasses, the princess smiles and announces, "This is fabulous! Finally, we're getting the royal treatment we deserve. Who here will visit the bars with me?"

    Without waiting to find out, Sofie asks a passing employee where to find the best bars in the district.

    Penelope rolls up her sleeves. She looks out on the courtyard. Poor place hasn't been cared for in the past eternity, and that's a pattern she means to break. She assigns whoever she managed to recruit whatever tasks need to be done, and gets to getting her hands dirty.

    She's gonna make Stygia the lushest, greenest evil lair anyone's ever heard of, or she'll die trying.


    I'll spend whatever points I need to, bossman. Although I'd prefer dimgrey.


    "Mighty white of you, throwing this together." Penny's wearing a nice big sun hat and some nice big sunglasses. "I appreciate it." She's also got a nice sharkskin one piece and a gossamer cloth around her waist.

    "I'll be maxin', folks. Don't wait up."

    She finds a bit of white sand and a pink drink and gets to rotting.

    Riish investigates her new alchemy set- she had to back to damn quartermaster three times before they got all the details right. She snuffles, and looks out her bedroom window. Despite her bravado and fire spitting, the demon beyond the portal had unnerved her. It was the stuff of nightmares, and she shuddered at what the demon did to her and everyone else. Hopefully, this Shadar-Kai had some answers. Killing him is a last resort- he seemed more like an ally then an enemy, despite his attempted sabotage.

    Time to go.

    Zee's room is unlocked, and immaculately kept. His HEXTablet and pocket bits neatly placed in the table, his Casual clothes folded on the corner of his bed.

    There is a tiny kitten on the bed, shiny black plastic implanted along its spine, flickering with orange symbols.

    A collar has somehow gotten hooked around its neck and under one armpit, perhaps explaining the horrible spelling apparently transmitted from the HEXCom sitting next to it on the bed. It gazes at her with typical feline insouciance.

    Okay. Don't panic. I can explain... everything.

    But first, get this fucking collar off my arm. These paws are some bullshit.

    Cool beans, Zee transmits after the Narrator's embarrassing intro, standing awkwardly on the dock, the sound of splashing water bringing strange and compelling instincts to the fore. I could probably use a drink. A small one.

    Oh, Daliah also totally hired the rats day 1.

    "I do not think..." Daliah up and down the hallway, and steps past the threshold into Zee's room, allowing the door to slide shut behind her. "I do not require an explanation." She feels around the collar, and snaps it open. "In another lifetime I was a cat. He had hands, however. Now," she twists the collar around her finger, "what next?"


    "This is similar to the beginnings of murder mysteries, yes?" Daliah, wrapped in a purple bandage dress, stands behind Zee. "I have no desire for one. Vacations are rare with this crowd."

    Oh wait, did you think I had an actual plan with this? The thought process went something like "shit, let's be a cat" and ended there.

    Alternate answer: Psychological Warfare.
    He watches Daliah's expression carefully. See? It's working already! Worst case scenario: Disguise! Who would recognize me as a Kitten? It's foolproof.

    Hep? Who even says shit like tha- Oh it's you. No beard this time, I see. Zee looks at Penny like she was something stuck to his boot, but that's probably just the default cat expression working its magic.

    He pauses for a second, before going on.

    "I'm not sure what kind of policies your company keeps, but I sure as hex don't think they would look kindly to this headline: "Pizza dude leaves dying man, Company deemed worst ever.

    "Well, that's certainly one way to kill the mood, Miss.......wait, what?" Clyde trails off as he glances at the orange cat with the strange spinal plate.

    He stares into the creature's eyes, wondering what kind of person, when given infinite possibilities and effective immortality, would choose, of all things, this form?

    Unconsciously, the words form on the Duelist's lips, as if pushed inexorably towards the one possible conclusion despite an unwillingness to believe it.
