  1. <ProcyonDM> You find the entrance once again, a hole in the sleek glass.
  2. <Carmen_Chapman> "Over here!!!"
  3. <Maddox> "Coming!"
  4. <ProcyonDM> Carmen you enter into the distractingly reflective house of mirrors as you did last time.
  5. <ProcyonDM> MAddox how long after do ytou enter?
  6. <Maddox> maybe 5 seconds.
  7. <ProcyonDM> Alright
  8. <ProcyonDM> You see Carmen right in front of you, but also alla round you.
  9. <ProcyonDM> welcome to the house of mirrors.

  15. <Carmen_Chapman> ((rip))
  16. <ProcyonDM> MAddox sees an imp flash around the edges of the mirrors
  17. <ProcyonDM> then it fades again out of sight
  18. <Maddox> "I think there is an imp in here."
  19. * Maddox starts working his way through the maze quickly. Fighting in here would be bad.
  20. <Carmen_Chapman> "AUGH!"
  21. <Carmen_Chapman> "Not fuckin again!"
  22. <Carmen_Chapman> "I HATE this place!"
  23. * Carmen_Chapman bumps into several mirrors
  24. <ProcyonDM> YOu hear "ssss" echoing around the area
  25. * Maddox continues moving against the mirrors, left hand out the left wall while the other hand out in front of him to not run into a mirror
  26. * Carmen_Chapman tries to navigate her way around the maze, hoping that most of the imps are high out of their minds again
  27. <ProcyonDM> Maddox you start to move away from carmen into the maze.
  28. <ProcyonDM> Carmen is still running into stuff.
  29. <Maddox> "You remember the way through?"
  30. <ProcyonDM> As carmen gets lets everywhere more imps and a basilisk begin to flash on the edges of the mirrors now.
  31. <Carmen_Chapman> "Fuck no! Why the helld I remember something as shitty as that???"
  32. * Carmen_Chapman stomps a boot in frustration upon hitting another mirror
  33. <Carmen_Chapman> "AUGH!"
  34. <Maddox> "Use your hand to follow the wall!"
  35. <Maddox> "Should get you out eventually, unless you get unlucky and end up in a big circle."
  36. * Maddox continues using his strategy. If he starts going in a circle, he switches walls
  37. <ProcyonDM> Soon you get very far away from carmen and no longer see her in anything other than falshes

  155. <ProcyonDM> !roll 1d20+7 acro
  156. <NOTTyche[Dice]> (1d20+7) [8+7] : {15}
  157. <ProcyonDM> it manages. it starts to flee toward its backup
  158. <Maddox> I think I can take a reaction if it is moving past me, no?
  159. <ProcyonDM> yeah that sounds right
  160. <Maddox> I attempt to grab onto it with a telekinetic instance, so I can track it.
  161. <Maddox> !roll 1d20+4 int
  162. <NOTTyche[Dice]> (1d20+4) [7+4] : {11}
  163. <ProcyonDM> all it does is grab?
  164. <ProcyonDM> is that against AC?
  165. <Maddox> I honestly don't know.
  166. <ProcyonDM> well say its against AC
  167. <ProcyonDM> i dont know what else it'd be against
  168. <Carmen_Chapman> grabbing is grappling
  169. <Carmen_Chapman> which is against athletics
  170. <ProcyonDM> acro in this case
  171. <Carmen_Chapman> but for basilisks is acrobatics
  172. <ProcyonDM> !roll 1d20+7
  173. <NOTTyche[Dice]> (1d20+7) [10+7] : {17}
  174. <ProcyonDM> its a slippery beast and escapes
  175. <ProcyonDM> you can still pursue it
  176. <ProcyonDM> but if it gets much further its going to find the lich
  177. <ProcyonDM> and carmen, what are you going to do?
  178. <Carmen_Chapman> I
  179. <Carmen_Chapman> She's still just trying to get out, right?
  180. <Carmen_Chapman> She's not with any mosters so that's what she's going to do
  181. <ProcyonDM> yeah other than the passed out imp
  182. <Carmen_Chapman> Then ==>
  183. <ProcyonDM> just letting maddox fight and randomly walking around
  184. <ProcyonDM> as in is that what youre doing?
  185. <Carmen_Chapman> Is there anything else she can do besides try and get out if she doesn't know where MaddoX is and there's no monsters?
  186. <Carmen_Chapman> She kind of needs to get somewhere where she can do something
  187. <Carmen_Chapman> So she's getting out of where she is which is lost
  188. <ProcyonDM> alright
  189. <Maddox> "Carmen you can now find where they are since the fireball has made an anchor point"
  190. <Maddox> but k.
  191. * Maddox turns around and attempts to chase the basilisk, one hand out to prevent head-on mirror collisions
  192. <ProcyonDM> since you can see where the thing is going you can manage to track it fairly well
  193. <Maddox> can I attack?
  194. <ProcyonDM> yes you can salsh at it but you'll have disadvantage
  195. <Maddox> I attack it with my main axe
  196. <Maddox> !roll 2#1d20+3

  205. <ProcyonDM> carmen as you walk you run into the lich and an imp looking for th ebasilisk
  206. <ProcyonDM> they havent seen you
  207. * Carmen_Chapman looX around trying to see where MaddoX and the basilisk are with respect to her and the lich and imp
  208. <ProcyonDM> the imp and lich are as well
  209. <ProcyonDM> roll insight again

  216. <ProcyonDM> You cant exactly figure out which path to take, but the lich seems to
  217. <ProcyonDM> it heads off in a direction
  218. <Carmen_Chapman> What does the imp do?
  219. <ProcyonDM> follows the lich
  220. * Carmen_Chapman follows them
  221. <ProcyonDM> soon the basilisk meets the imp and lich
  222. <ProcyonDM> oh right maddox you lost 1d4 damage from burning
  223. <ProcyonDM> and also you find them as well
  224. <Maddox> !roll 1d4
  225. <NOTTyche[Dice]> (1d4) [3] : {3}

  228. <ProcyonDM> with carmen in hot pursiut
  229. <ProcyonDM> everyone roll initiative!

  245. <Carmen_Chapman> ((prototypes or other stuff?))
  246. <ProcyonDM> i dont even know what the rpotos are honestly
  247. <Carmen_Chapman> ((great))
  248. * Carmen_Chapman pulls out her Flaming Chainsaw Juggling Club, grinning widely as she revs it to life, eager to get to use it for real for the first time
  249. <Maddox> "I already hit the basilisk a few times!"
  250. * Maddox stands on the other side of all three monsters, both axesabers in hands
  251. * Carmen_Chapman yells angrily at the basilisk that was attacking MaddoX and swings her Flaming Chainsaw Juggling Club at it
  252. <Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+5 attack
  253. <NOTTyche[Dice]> (1d20+5) [16+5] : {21}
  254. <ProcyonDM> oy joyd
  255. <ProcyonDM> it hits
  256. <Carmen_Chapman> I have no idea how much damage it does
  257. <Carmen_Chapman> Never attacked with it before
  258. <Carmen_Chapman> Here's what it's alchemized from
  259. <ProcyonDM> we didnt decide this?
  260. <ProcyonDM> oops
  261. <Carmen_Chapman> Take a base juggling club and combine it with a colored torch to make a flaming juggling club weapon
  262. <Carmen_Chapman> but she cant use those so she alchemized that with her chainsaw
  263. <Carmen_Chapman> base chainsaw damage was 1d12
  264. <Carmen_Chapman> alchemized club idk because it wasn't ever used as a weapon
  265. <ProcyonDM> probably lik 1d4
  266. <ProcyonDM> and some fire damage
  267. <Carmen_Chapman> the unalchemized club would have been 1d6/1d8 versatile
  268. <ProcyonDM> like some round of fire damge
  269. <Carmen_Chapman> so then about 2d12 total?
  270. <Carmen_Chapman> I think usually when you alchemize a weapon the damage die increases one
  271. <ProcyonDM> yeah sounds good to me
  272. <ProcyonDM> and a round or two of fire damage
  273. <ProcyonDM> 1d2
  274. <Carmen_Chapman> cool I'll write that down
  275. <Carmen_Chapman> !roll 2d12+5 damage
  276. <NOTTyche[Dice]> (2d12+5) [18+5] : {23}
  277. <Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d2 fire
  278. <NOTTyche[Dice]> (1d2) [2] : {2}
  279. <ProcyonDM> golly.
  280. <ProcyonDM> the basilisk, already weakened, dies to your vicious shot
  281. * Carmen_Chapman laughs in triumph
  282. <Carmen_Chapman> "HA! Take THAT you piece of shit!!!"
  283. * Carmen_Chapman flashes MaddoX a grin
  284. * Maddox nods
  285. <Carmen_Chapman> The wide grin with pointy teeth, along with the flaming chainsaw and basilisk remains everywhere probably looks a bit unsettling
  286. <Maddox> my turn?
  287. <ProcyonDM> if shes done
  288. <ProcyonDM> yes
  289. <Maddox> Carmen_Chapman - end turn?

  291. <Maddox> How close together are the imp and lich?
  292. <ProcyonDM> theyre about 2 feet apart

  326. <Maddox> "That... hurt. Somehow."
  327. <Carmen_Chapman> End turn?
  328. <ProcyonDM> yep.
  329. * Carmen_Chapman yells at the lich
  330. <Carmen_Chapman> "Dontchu think bout doin that again!!!"
  331. * Carmen_Chapman spins around from where the basilisk used to be and swings her chainsaw at the lich
  332. <Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+5 attack
  333. <NOTTyche[Dice]> (1d20+5) [9+5] : {14}
  334. <Maddox> (For the record, there was only a 27% chance of none of my attacks hitting the lich last turn)

  347. <Carmen_Chapman> "I WILL FUCKING CRUSH U U GET THAT???"
  348. <Carmen_Chapman> "JUST GIVE UP NOW"
  349. <Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+4 intimidation

  351. <Maddox> "Holy crap!"
  352. <Carmen_Chapman> ((holy crap))
  353. <Maddox> ((Also, THAT CRIT))
  354. <ProcyonDM> It cowers, in utter terror.
  355. <Carmen_Chapman> It takes a -2 penalty on attack rolls.
  356. <Carmen_Chapman> end turn
  357. <Maddox> I run around behind the lich, this time only using flurry 1
  358. <Carmen_Chapman> meeting some people for dinner :(
  359. <Maddox> !roll 2#1d20+1

  368. <ProcyonDM> It flees past Carmen
  369. <ProcyonDM> Reaction?
  370. <Carmen_Chapman> Are AoO a thing?
  371. <Maddox> What is AoO?
  372. <Carmen_Chapman> attack of opportunity
  373. <Carmen_Chapman> not sure what version of the rules we're using
  374. <ProcyonDM> I thought we'd decided he's
  375. <ProcyonDM> Yes*
  376. <Carmen_Chapman> okay that works
  377. <Carmen_Chapman> carmen doesn't have eany feats yet so that's the only thing she could potentially use a reaction for
  378. <Carmen_Chapman> *any
  379. <Carmen_Chapman> I think attack of opportunity doesn't get the ability modifier to damage?
  380. <Carmen_Chapman> or something?
  381. <ProcyonDM> Let's just say it's a normal attack you can take out of your turn because something is exposing itseld
  382. <Carmen_Chapman> okay
  383. <Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+5 attack

  399. <Carmen_Chapman> it looks like Maddox attacked before the lich
  400. <Carmen_Chapman> so it would be carmen's turn
  401. <ProcyonDM> cool
  402. * Carmen_Chapman turns, surprised and frustrated, as the lich zips past her
  403. * Carmen_Chapman yells at it and goes after it to attack it again

  579. <Carmen_Chapman> "U find much of this stuff on ur planet???
  580. <Maddox> "Hm. Well, all monsters drop it."
  581. <Maddox> "And my planet has basically nothing but monsters. So, yeah?"
  582. * Maddox points to the tier 3 grist
  583. <Carmen_Chapman> "Whoaaaa...."
  584. <Maddox> "Those are a bit rarer though. I don't have a lot.
  585. * Carmen_Chapman looX at it
  586. <Carmen_Chapman> "What is it?
  587. <Carmen_Chapman> "
  588. <Maddox> "This stuff has different uses I guess? To make cooler stuff you need rarer stuff."
  589. * Carmen_Chapman grins
  590. * Carmen_Chapman poXe the thing to make it disappear
  591. <Carmen_Chapman> "Thats so coool!!!"
  592. * Carmen_Chapman jumps around a bit more before pausing

  594. <Carmen_Chapman> "Forgot u probs want some too"
  595. <Carmen_Chapman> "What u want?"
  596. <Maddox> "I don't know. You killed the big one basically by yourself, so you should get most of it. You need about 300 of the blue ones to make your house tall enough to go through the portals."
  597. * Carmen_Chapman grabs a bunch of the blue ones
  598. <Carmen_Chapman> "I dunno how much we got just take some I guess"
  599. * Maddox takes 100 build grist and 50 T1 grist

  607. <Carmen_Chapman> "Uuuugh"
  608. <Carmen_Chapman> "K lets go then"
  609. <Maddox> "lets follow the right wall I guess."
  610. * Maddox and Carmen work our way through and out of the maze
  611. <Maddox> ProcyonDM
  612. <ProcyonDM> It takes quite a qhile and a bit of backtracking but you finally make it to the exit of the maze.
  613. <ProcyonDM> its just an ordinary staircase moving up.
  614. <Carmen_Chapman> "Yes!!!"
  615. <Carmen_Chapman> "Ur the best MaddoX!"
  616. <Maddox> "I didn't even!... fine."
  617. <Carmen_Chapman> "Lets go!"
  618. * Maddox follows Carmen up the stairs
  619. * Carmen_Chapman grabs MaddoX's wrist and heads up the stairs
  620. <ProcyonDM> its about 3 stories up
  621. <ProcyonDM> giving ytou some scale of the pyrmaid
  622. <Carmen_Chapman> "This neXt part is awesome!!!"
  623. <ProcyonDM> you open up into a massive lake, inside
  624. <Maddox> "They built a lake. Three stories into the pyramid."
  625. <Maddox> "Wow."
  626. <Carmen_Chapman> "Its sooooo pretty!!!"
  627. <Carmen_Chapman> "I would like swoon or something but that sounds p lame to me"
  628. * Maddox nods
  629. <Maddox> "I don't even know what a swoon looks like. It does sound dumb though."
  630. <ProcyonDM> theres a boat moored.
  631. <Maddox> "Oh, good. A boat! Um, any chance you know how to use it?"
  632. <Carmen_Chapman> "Uh... DUH!"
  633. <Carmen_Chapman> "oh"
  634. <Carmen_Chapman> "Guess u didnt know I lived by Lake fuckin Superior"
  635. <Maddox> "Oh. Yeah, that would do it. Uh, sorry?"
  636. * Carmen_Chapman looX a little disheartened thinking of home
  637. <Carmen_Chapman> "Used to run down there through the forest n stuff to go out in a boat I found..."
  638. * Maddox notices, but doesn't say anything
  639. <Carmen_Chapman> "Good way of gettin away from shit u know?"
  640. <Maddox> "Yeah."
  641. <Carmen_Chapman> "Just u out on the lake... wind n clouds n birds..."
  642. <Maddox> "Lets not talk about that stuff. Do we cross?"
  643. * Carmen_Chapman shaXe her head to snap out of her reverie
  644. <Carmen_Chapman> "Uhhh yeah we go across"
  645. * Carmen_Chapman hops down to the boat
  646. <Carmen_Chapman> "Get in n then we can get goin"
  647. * Maddox gets in, attentive
  648. <ProcyonDM> you succeed im sure
  649. * Carmen_Chapman begins unwrapping the mooring ropes
  650. * Carmen_Chapman pushes the boat out into the water, hopping in after it's off shore
  651. <ProcyonDM> You finally land on a small sand beach with a small dark enclosure
  652. * Maddox just keeps watching the water
  653. * Carmen_Chapman smiles, sighing in contentment at the pretty lake
  654. <ProcyonDM> Nothing emerges from the water
  655. <Carmen_Chapman> "I gotta find a big lake or somethin outside cuz that would be sooo much better"
  656. * Carmen_Chapman jumps up suddenly and leaps out of the boat when it gets to the beach
  657. * Maddox nods, stepping onto the shore.
  658. * Carmen_Chapman pulls the boat up on shore
  659. <Carmen_Chapman> "Just over here!"
  660. <Carmen_Chapman> "This lil island thingys p boring I looked all over for cool shit"
  661. <Carmen_Chapman> "But theres this great thing over here I wanna show u!!!"
  662. * Carmen_Chapman runs off
  663. * Maddox follows at a brisk jog
  664. <ProcyonDM> where to
  665. * Carmen_Chapman stops at the entrance to the tunnel, holding her hands above her head excitedly
  666. <Carmen_Chapman> "Tada!!!"
  667. <Maddox> "What's in the tunnel?"
  668. <ProcyonDM> as if on cue
  669. <ProcyonDM> pink lights turn on.
  670. <ProcyonDM> they dimly illumninate a rollercoaster type ride.
  671. <ProcyonDM> above the ride, adorned with hearts, is written "the tunnel of love"
  672. * Maddox looks at the timing of the lights, then at carmen, than back, then breaks out laughing.
  673. <Maddox> "They actually built this. IN A PIRAMID. A ROLLER COASTER"
  674. <Maddox> "Sounds like fun!"
  675. * Carmen_Chapman waggles her eyebrows
  676. * Maddox laughs again
  677. * Carmen_Chapman puts her arms down and turns around to look for the little carriage car thing
  678. <ProcyonDM> you do notice inside the carriage there are some drug paraphernalia
  679. * Carmen_Chapman hops over to the carriage and tries to captchalogue them before MaddoX sees them
  680. * Maddox doesn't notice.
  681. * Maddox follows carmen, seeing she found the cart.
  682. <Maddox> "Well, We just jump in I guess?"
  683. <Carmen_Chapman> "Yup! Hop in dude!"
  684. * Maddox hops in
  685. <Maddox> "I can start us off. No need to push."
  686. * Maddox prepares 4 telekinetic instances.
  687. <ProcyonDM> It starts without your insistence
  688. <ProcyonDM> seems to know
  689. <Carmen_Chapman> "I hope ur a better kisser than an imp thing!"
  690. * Carmen_Chapman laughs as the cart gets going
  691. <ProcyonDM> it starts moving into the dim pink light
  692. * Maddox looks a little nervous
  693. <Maddox> "What makes you think I've done that before?"
  694. * Maddox has his eyes glued to the tracks, nervous about the stability of such an old ride
  695. <Carmen_Chapman> "U... havent?"
  696. <Maddox> "Nope! Didn't try to make a lot of friends in real life!"
  697. <Carmen_Chapman> "Oh"
  698. <Maddox> "Let alone romantic stuff!"
  699. <Carmen_Chapman> "Seemed like youd... you know.... Idk"
  700. * Maddox shakes his head a bit, still tense from the situtation on both fronts
  701. <Carmen_Chapman> "Well peeps were stupid for not likin u!"
  702. <ProcyonDM> ((btw the track is on hard ground, not like in the air))
  703. <ProcyonDM> The track dips down and moves underground.
  704. <Carmen_Chapman> "Xept I guess theyre dead now n I getta be here with u so worX out for me!"
  705. <ProcyonDM> Some queit jazz begins to play
  706. <Maddox> "Its less that they didn't like me and more I didnnnnttt really talk to anyone."
  707. * Carmen_Chapman puts her arm not-so-subtlely around MaddoX's shoulders
  708. <Maddox> ((dip at didn't)
  709. <Carmen_Chapman> "Dude...."
  710. <Carmen_Chapman> "Ur all like... up tight n shit"
  711. <Carmen_Chapman> "This track is fine I rode it already"
  712. <Carmen_Chapman> "S why..."
  713. * Maddox nods a bit, though it turns a bit into a bob
  714. * Carmen_Chapman waggles her eyebrows again
  715. <Carmen_Chapman> "I know whats comin up"
  716. * Maddox looks at Carmen, looks away, and if he had more surface blood vessels, would be flushed
  717. * Maddox continues watching the tracks for any damage
  718. <Maddox> "That's good."
  719. <ProcyonDM> There is no damage.
  720. * Maddox puts his arm around carmen's side, but not cleanly at all
  721. <ProcyonDM> You begin to notice the heat increases slightly
  722. <Maddox> ((in the sense that it was not smooth.))
  723. <Carmen_Chapman> "There u go dude thats more like it"
  724. * Maddox would blink in relief, but is concerned about the upcoming heat and doesn't want to close them
  725. * Carmen_Chapman reaches over her other hand to MaddoX's lap, patting his thigh to get his attention and extending her hand
  726. <Carmen_Chapman> "Wanna hold hands?"
  727. <Maddox> "Yeah."
  728. <ProcyonDM> ((this is all i imagined and more))
  729. * Maddox grabs Carmen's other hand, also not smooth due to the upcoming expected roller coaster obligitory eventual drop
  730. * Carmen_Chapman flips her hand around for a moment, trying to get them lined up before holding his hand properly
  731. <Carmen_Chapman> "Just u wait tho this is just the beginnin"
  732. * Maddox accepts the correct hand positioning
  733. <Maddox> "Of this or the ride?"
  734. * Carmen_Chapman looX around at all the hearts and pink lights
  735. * Carmen_Chapman doesn't answer, instead wiggling her eyebrows more
  736. * Carmen_Chapman snuggles her head on MaddoX's shoulder, waiting for the neXt thing
  737. <Carmen_Chapman> "U ready?"
  738. <Maddox> "Maybe?"
  739. * Maddox is actively attempting to force himself to relax.
  740. * Maddox finds that forcing relaxation isn't very effective
  741. <ProcyonDM> Suddenly the walls of the dark tunnel turn into glass, and you can see the lake
  742. * Maddox 's eyes go even wider
  743. <ProcyonDM> There are fish and lush lake plants
  744. <ProcyonDM> how they grow? who knows beacuse its all dark
  745. <ProcyonDM> The fish frequently move to investigate the cart and the plants are cool as well
  746. * Maddox gets even more tense.
  747. <ProcyonDM> It slowly moves along
  748. <Maddox> Internally: *I really, really hope that construction is solid. It would be, otherwise this track wouldn't be here now, right?
  749. <Maddox> also: *Holy crap Carmen is awesome*
  750. * Carmen_Chapman squeezes MaddoX's hand and nuzzles against his shoulder
  751. * Carmen_Chapman frowns a bit at MaddoX's tense hand and shoulder
  752. <Carmen_Chapman> "Ur like a board man"
  753. * Maddox 's heart breaks 180 bpm
  754. <Maddox> "S...s..orry
  755. * Carmen_Chapman moves MaddoX's hand around a bit to try and loosen up his arm
  756. * Maddox 's arm goes limp, then gets back into form
  757. <ProcyonDM> The cart moves on, inexorable.
  758. <Maddox> ((OOC Note that Carmen doesn't know: Maddox has never gone swimming))
  759. * Carmen_Chapman feels like she should say something lovey
  760. <Carmen_Chapman> "How u feelin bout now? U feel the tunnel of looove?"
  761. * Maddox very slowly relaxes, rationality on the structure building in, and trying to relax for carmen
  762. <Maddox> "I wish I was a lot better at this. Thanks a lot though."
  763. * Maddox tries to smile
  764. * Maddox tries to relax and take in the fish. And Carmen.
  765. * Carmen_Chapman looX up at MaddoX and chuckles a bit
  766. <Carmen_Chapman> "Whaddya like bout me?"
  767. <Carmen_Chapman> "Cuz I like a buncha stuff bout u"
  768. <Carmen_Chapman> "Ur always like standin up for what u thinX right"
  769. <Carmen_Chapman> "Tryin to help peeps"
  770. <Maddox> "You're really strong, made a GIANT CHAINSAW, and got through really tough stuff growing up. And you still had time for me!"
  771. <Maddox> "Also you helped me get through my planet emotionally."
  772. * Maddox finally enters a relaxed state. Only took forever.
  773. <Carmen_Chapman> "Huh?"
  774. <Carmen_Chapman> "Whaddya mean?"
  775. <Maddox> "The last part? I'm not sure I would have managed to stay motivated to keep moving forward and not curl up in a ball without your messaging me cool stuff all the time. Being there for when I needed to complain"
  776. <Maddox> "thanks a lot for that."
  777. * Maddox smiles a bit, forgetting the glass between him and a lot of water
  778. <Carmen_Chapman> "Oh"
  779. <Carmen_Chapman> "Cool"
  780. <Carmen_Chapman> "Didnt really know shit sucked that bad for u then"
  781. <Carmen_Chapman> "Oops I guess"
  782. <Carmen_Chapman> "Ur good at keepin stuff hidden like that"
  783. <Carmen_Chapman> "I can tell"
  784. <Carmen_Chapman> "U know..."
  785. <Maddox> ((Not well hidden. Remember the Acheron and video calls with maddox being terrified? Those.))
  786. <Carmen_Chapman> "U dont have to try n have ur shit together all the time"
  787. <Carmen_Chapman> "Peeps messin up happens all the time"
  788. <Carmen_Chapman> "Ur just gonna let peeps down sometimes u cant like... fix or prevent everythin... u know?"
  789. <Maddox> "Yeah. I'm just... kinda afraid if I screw up the consequences are going to be really, really bad. Same for everyone here."
  790. <Carmen_Chapman> "...yeah."
  791. <Carmen_Chapman> "I..... already know whatchu mean..."
  792. <Carmen_Chapman> "But like..."
  793. <Carmen_Chapman> "If ur nervous or afraid or u think u know somethin better than me..."
  794. <Maddox> "It's okay. We're still here."
  795. <Carmen_Chapman> "U dont haveta try n bottle it up."
  796. <Carmen_Chapman> "S okay to just be u"
  797. * Maddox nods
  798. <Carmen_Chapman> "Like"
  799. <Carmen_Chapman> "Ive got no fuckin clue what Im doin like half the time or somethin I just go with it"
  800. <Maddox> "Which is completely amazing. I can't do that very well at all!"
  801. <Carmen_Chapman> "U got ur shit together a lot more than I do!!!"
  802. * Maddox nods a bit.
  803. <Maddox> "It might be worth telling you then."
  804. <Maddox> "I haven't exactly gone swimming before."
  805. * Maddox looks up at the water above
  806. * Carmen_Chapman looX up at MaddoX in surprise
  807. <Carmen_Chapman> "Whaaaaa????"
  808. <Carmen_Chapman> "Like how can u not ever go swimming???"
  809. <Carmen_Chapman> "Its like one a the best things everrrr!"
  810. <Carmen_Chapman> "Specially if u dont give a shit bout ur clothes n just throw em on the shore!"
  811. * Carmen_Chapman laughs
  812. * Maddox laughs nervously
  813. <Maddox> "I mean, I could probably figure it out. I mostly just ran, and dad had work n stuff
  814. <Carmen_Chapman> "Dontchu worry just dont like axesaber the glass or anything well be fine I rode this before with a shitty imp thing"
  815. * Maddox laughs a bit at that
  816. <Maddox> "Alright. Thanks again for the suprise this is."
  817. <Carmen_Chapman> "S not like swimmings gonna help anyways were at the bottom of a fuckin lake"
  818. * Carmen_Chapman smiles
  819. <Carmen_Chapman> "Dude"
  820. <Carmen_Chapman> "Ur the one who like collected all that grist shit n made a huge trip over to see me"
  821. <Carmen_Chapman> "I did like... jackshit here"
  822. * Maddox nods
  823. <ProcyonDM> you see the end of the tunnel inn the distance
  824. <Carmen_Chapman> "Basically sat around cryin n bein high for a while"
  825. <Carmen_Chapman> "But ur here now!"
  826. <Maddox> "You just collected as much grist as I used to get here by killing that one monster, by the way."
  827. * Carmen_Chapman smiles, nuzzling against MaddoX again
  828. * Maddox leans back in this time
  829. * Carmen_Chapman smiles, waiting for what she remembers neXt
  830. <ProcyonDM> The tunnel approaches.
  831. <ProcyonDM> finally you reach the end, and enter the darkness.
  832. <Carmen_Chapman> "Hehehe its p dark in here"
  833. <ProcyonDM> Somehow you dont see the pink of the glass tunnel, so it is completely dark
  834. * Maddox puts out his telekinetic instances to trace out the tunnel ahead, just in case
  835. * Carmen_Chapman shuffles around in her seat
  836. <ProcyonDM> The c art slows to a stop.
  837. <Maddox> "does it usually stop here?"
  838. * Carmen_Chapman stands up and turns to face MaddoX in the darkness
  839. <Carmen_Chapman> "U ready for the finale?"
  840. * Carmen_Chapman sits down in MaddoX's lap, facing him
  841. * Maddox does go full flush
  842. * Carmen_Chapman pulls MaddoX in with the arm around his shoulder and gives him a full on kiss on the lips
  843. * Maddox takes it, but tries to keep it short. He's not great at this and very nervous
  844. <Maddox> ((kisses back, but short. Writing is great, I know :P ))
  845. * Carmen_Chapman follows MaddoX as he pulls back to continue kissing him, trying to act assertive or confident
  846. * Maddox gives up and goes with it, doing his best
  847. * Carmen_Chapman continues kissing MaddoX, but realizes the last time she kissed someone like this was when she and Adrian were drunk at that one party
  848. * Carmen_Chapman almost pulls back suddenly at the disgusting thought, but instead tries to steel herself, just sort of jumping in MaddoX's lap instead
  849. * Maddox looks down.
  850. <Maddox> "Yeah, I kind of suck at this. Sorry."
  851. * Carmen_Chapman pulls back, putting her face directly in front of MaddoX's in the darkness
  852. <Carmen_Chapman> "Dude Ive never done this before either with someone I liked so hell if I know how its sposed to go"
  853. * Maddox 's heart is pumping though.
  854. <Maddox> "That was pretty great."
  855. * Maddox smiles a bit
  856. * Carmen_Chapman gives MaddoX a final smooch on the cheek to leave a big lipstick mark
  857. * Maddox starts laughing at that bit
  858. * Carmen_Chapman settles her chin on MaddoX's shoulder, simply sitting there against him
  859. * Carmen_Chapman laughs a bit
  860. <Carmen_Chapman> "Now its official!"
  861. * Maddox raises his eyebrows
  862. <Maddox> "It wasn't before?"
  863. <ProcyonDM> The car begins to move once again
  864. <Carmen_Chapman> "Well I mean yeah it was but like"
  865. <Carmen_Chapman> "Its one thing to just sorta say it"
  866. <Carmen_Chapman> "But now its like a thing"
  867. <Maddox> "Yeah."
  868. * Carmen_Chapman can't really think straight at all, so she tries to avoid words
  869. <Carmen_Chapman> "Yeah u know like the thing is.... yeah"
  870. <Carmen_Chapman> "Awesome"
  871. * Maddox nods a few times
  872. * Carmen_Chapman rests her head back on MaddoX's shoulder, pressing up against him as she hugs him as the cart begins moving again
  873. <Carmen_Chapman> "Awesome dude"
  874. * Maddox hugs carmen. Hugs are always great
  875. * Maddox looks ahead as the cart starts moving again
  876. <Maddox> "Might want to sit back down."
  877. <ProcyonDM> The track begins to move upward.
  878. * Carmen_Chapman heaves an exaggeratedly drawn out sigh
  879. <Carmen_Chapman> "Fiiiine"
  880. * Carmen_Chapman slides herself off of MaddoX's lap back into her seat
  881. <ProcyonDM> You finally surface.
  882. <Maddox> "I just don't want you falling off."
  883. <Maddox> "Oh."
  884. <ProcyonDM> It flattens out into a room with a door. quite exciting
  885. <Maddox> "I was tense the whole time for a drop that didn't ever come."
  886. * Maddox starts laughing
  887. <Maddox> "Among other things."
  888. * Maddox looks at carmen, still pretty red.
  889. <Carmen_Chapman> "O rly?"
  890. <Carmen_Chapman> "What sort of... *other things*?"
  891. <Maddox> "You."
  892. * Maddox has a small smile on his face
  893. * Carmen_Chapman tries to stand up, but sits back down after finding her legs too noodly
  894. * Carmen_Chapman smiles at MaddoX
  895. * Carmen_Chapman takes a couple deep breaths trying to get her breakneck pulse to chill out
  896. * Maddox also slowly calms down
  897. <Carmen_Chapman> "That wasnt so bad was it?"
  898. <Maddox> "No. I think I might be high on adrenaline. That was pretty fun."
  899. <Carmen_Chapman> "I dunno how ur sposed to do it but hey who the hell cares it worked for us!"
  900. * Maddox nods
  901. <Maddox> "Yeah."
  902. <Carmen_Chapman> "ThanX for comin over here to see me"
  903. <Carmen_Chapman> "Ur like the best"
  904. <Carmen_Chapman> "I was gettin..... really lonely"
  905. <Maddox> "Yeah, I am too."
  906. * Carmen_Chapman pats MaddoX's thigh again before actually standing up
  907. <Carmen_Chapman> "See if I can stand up without lookin like a fuckin idiot"
  908. * Maddox stands up, getting out of the cart
  909. * Carmen_Chapman holds the side of the carriage for support, stepping out of it and heading towards the door
  910. <Maddox> "You want leg supports?"
  911. <Carmen_Chapman> "Uhhhhh... sure? Idk whatchu mean tho"
  912. * Maddox creates two telekinetic instances, attaching each to carmen's knees, reinforcing them.
  913. <Maddox> "Should make it easier to stay up."
  914. <Maddox> ((tubes. Think bendy pipes.))
  915. <ProcyonDM> lol good plan
  916. <Carmen_Chapman> "Oooh!"
  917. * Maddox gives carmen a thumbs up
  918. * Carmen_Chapman raises her eyebrows
  919. <Carmen_Chapman> "I see what ur trying to do there!"
  920. <Carmen_Chapman> "Magic feelin up my legs there!"
  921. * Carmen_Chapman stiX her tongue out
  922. * Maddox flushes, then laughs a bit.
  923. <Maddox> "I can't even feel with these things!"
  924. * Carmen_Chapman steadies herself with the support and walX around
  925. <Carmen_Chapman> "Suuuuuure"
  926. * Carmen_Chapman laughs a bit, making her way towards the door
  927. <Carmen_Chapman> "WorX for me thanX for the help think Ill be okay in a lil bit"
  928. * Maddox also heads to the door, opening it.
  929. * Maddox nods
  930. <Maddox> "This stuff takes focus anyway."
  931. * Carmen_Chapman gestures with her arm for MaddoX to go through the door first
  932. <Maddox> "Alright then."
  933. * Maddox goes through first
  934. <Carmen_Chapman> "Well ur gonna need focus here!"
  935. * Carmen_Chapman follows MaddoX, giving him a playful pat on the rear as he goes through the door
  936. <ProcyonDM> ITs a massive, huge room full of trampolines
  937. <Carmen_Chapman> "We gotta whole lotta shit in here!!!"
  938. * Maddox just breaks down laughing
  939. <ProcyonDM> There are some islands with angled trampolines to make it more interesting too
  940. <ProcyonDM> theres an imp or two around
  941. <Maddox> "WHO BUILT THIS PLACE. WHY IS THERE A ROLLER COASTER. WHY ARE THERE TRAMPOLINES?"
  942. <Carmen_Chapman> "Its the land of fuckin SPECTACLES dude its fulla this sorta shit!!!"
  943. * Maddox throws up his hands
  944. <Maddox> "And the winner of best planet to land on goes tooooooooo CARMEN!"
  945. * Maddox launches himself onto the trampoline
  946. <Maddox> "Want to clear out the imps?"
  947. <Carmen_Chapman> "Pyramids with roller coasters n shit... huge-ass prairies with animals... giant circuses with LIZARD BOB ROSS... a fuckin dance party beat everywhere u go!"
  948. * Carmen_Chapman stands by waiting to see what happens with MaddoX on the trampolines, getting ready to laugh her ass off if he gives a repeat performance of her last attempt here
  949. <Carmen_Chapman> "I just kinda u know ignored them before..."
  950. <Carmen_Chapman> "I punched one in the face to make it go away lol"
  951. * Maddox uses the extra oomph of the trampolines to charge straight at the nearest imp at high speed, axesabers out but not on
  952. <Carmen_Chapman> "U dont need to kill them if theyre not causin trouble!!!"
  953. <Carmen_Chapman> "Somea them are p chill dudes!"
  954. <Carmen_Chapman> "Sometimes u gotta teach em a lesson tho!"
  955. * Carmen_Chapman laughs a bit
  956. <ProcyonDM> lets see the dex rolls my dudes
  957. <Maddox> dex, not athletics?
  958. <Carmen_Chapman> or acrobatics?
  959. <ProcyonDM> whatever you can manage

  961. <ProcyonDM> then yeah acrobatics
  962. <Maddox> !roll 1d20+2
  963. <Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+2) [15+2] : {17}
  964. <Carmen_Chapman> ((whatever it was I remember rolling a natural one before hahaha))
  965. <Carmen_Chapman> ((also carmen is watching from the side right now))
  966. <Carmen_Chapman> ((so not on the trampolines yet))
  967. * Maddox rapidly bears down on the imp, but hearing carmen at the last second, punts the imp instead. Probably doesn't kill it.
  968. <ProcyonDM> ((got it))
  969. <ProcyonDM> roll to hit i guess
  970. <Maddox> !roll 1d20+5
  971. <Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+5) [8+5] : {13}
  972. <ProcyonDM> You slam into the unaware imp. he cant escape anyway
  973. <ProcyonDM> before you can follow up his limp body flies away and bounces away
  974. <Maddox> ((should I roll damage?))
  975. <ProcyonDM> its just unarmed
  976. <ProcyonDM> so i dont know
  977. <Maddox> its probably 5 then, from 1+5
  978. <Maddox> 4*
  979. <Maddox> 1+4*
  980. <Carmen_Chapman> You can also choose to make unarmed attacks nonlethal so they knockout instead of kill
  981. <Maddox> ^ that
  982. <Carmen_Chapman> "Hahaha u showed it!"
  983. <ProcyonDM> THere is now a bouncing unconcious imp
  984. <Carmen_Chapman> "We gotta make it over to that door over there!"
  985. * Carmen_Chapman points to the other side of the room
  986. <Maddox> "Got it!"
  987. * Maddox sprints to the other end of the room, where Carmen pointed
  988. * Carmen_Chapman gets a running start in the direXon of the door before jumping onto the trampolines
  989. <Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+2 acrobatiX
  990. <Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+2) [6+2] : {8}
  991. <ProcyonDM> Its a bit shaky but you manage it

  993. <Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+2) [4+2] : {6}
  994. <Maddox> (lol)
  995. <ProcyonDM> you slip and fall on a tilted trampoline
  996. <ProcyonDM> you end up slipping and hittingt the ground pretty hard and bouncing
  997. * Maddox attempts to land it after the bounce anyway.
  998. <Maddox> !roll 1d20+2
  999. <Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+2) [16+2] : {18}
  1000. * Carmen_Chapman laughs as MaddoX bounces
  1001. <ProcyonDM> you score like a bamf
  1002. <ProcyonDM> nice one
  1003. <Maddox> "Ow."
  1004. * Maddox staggers a bit, but remains upright having landed post-bounce.
  1005. <Maddox> "Nailed it?"
  1006. <Carmen_Chapman> "Hahaha close enough!"
  1007. * Carmen_Chapman maXe her way to the door
  1008. * Maddox follows, more carefully
  1009. <ProcyonDM> finally there is a ladder going up into an attic
  1010. * Maddox beings climbing
  1011. * Carmen_Chapman follows
  1012. <ProcyonDM> You enter into a musty, dusty room
  1013. <Maddox> "You been here before?"
  1014. * Maddox looks around
  1015. <Carmen_Chapman> "This place is... weird"
  1016. <Carmen_Chapman> "Its all sortsa fake fortune telling junk"
  1017. <Carmen_Chapman> "Made a bogus healing potion here!"
  1018. <ProcyonDM> its filled with various fortune telling nicknacks, old props, and plenty of other random old stuff covered in tapes and in bottles
  1019. <ProcyonDM> tarps**
  1020. <Carmen_Chapman> "Tricked some peeps with it too!"
  1021. * Carmen_Chapman laughs
  1022. <Maddox> "Yeah, maybe we shouldn't mess with it then."
  1023. * Maddox laughs a bit as well
  1024. <Maddox> "I really hope it wasn't toxic."
  1025. <Carmen_Chapman> "I tried it though!"
  1026. <Carmen_Chapman> "Had some really fuckin stinky fish goop in it but everything else was cool"
  1027. * Carmen_Chapman points to a big wooden device in the back corner, one of those love meters
  1028. <Carmen_Chapman> "Look at that thing!"
  1029. <ProcyonDM> carmen knows.
  1030. <ProcyonDM> yeah that
  1031. <Carmen_Chapman> "Took the test thing"
  1032. <Carmen_Chapman> "Then BOOM"
  1033. <Carmen_Chapman> "Just look at what it says"
  1034. * Maddox goes over and looks at what is says
  1035. <ProcyonDM> you guys havent done it yet?
  1036. <ProcyonDM> i guess it was
  1037. <Carmen_Chapman> ((it's one of these things btw http://www.griffintrading.com/WP/wp-content/invgtc/coolstuff/LoveTester1HG.jpg))
  1038. <Carmen_Chapman> ((carmen had it at whatever was at the top before))
  1039. <Maddox> ((Which was...?))
  1040. <Carmen_Chapman> ((whatever was at the top))
  1041. <ProcyonDM> hot stuff
  1042. <Carmen_Chapman> ((it was burning or uncontrollable or something like that))
  1043. <ProcyonDM> or uncontrollable
  1044. <Maddox> "Dang."
  1045. <ProcyonDM> i had assumed it was turning off
  1046. <ProcyonDM> turned off
  1047. <Maddox> "You fry it or something? It's off"
  1048. <Maddox> ((We'll go with that then I guess.))
  1049. <Carmen_Chapman> "What???"
  1050. <Carmen_Chapman> "Fuck!"
  1051. <Carmen_Chapman> "It made it to the top!"
  1052. <Carmen_Chapman> "Uncontrollable or burnin or somethin like that"
  1053. <Carmen_Chapman> "I wanted to save it to show u!"
  1054. <Carmen_Chapman> "Shitty thing ruinin everything"
  1055. <Maddox> "Everything?"
  1056. * Maddox tries turning it back on
  1057. <Carmen_Chapman> "K not everything"
  1058. <Carmen_Chapman> "Fine"
  1059. <ProcyonDM> it tuens back on, there was just a switch
  1060. * Carmen_Chapman pouts a little, but can't help but smile a little
  1061. <Maddox> "seems to be working."
  1062. * Maddox attempts
  1063. * Carmen_Chapman watches
  1064. <Carmen_Chapman> "Well....?"
  1065. <ProcyonDM> it goes all the way up to uncontrollable
  1066. <Maddox> "Uh, Okay then."
  1067. * Maddox gestures to the machine
  1068. <Maddox> "Huh. I wonder how that thing works. Heart rate maybe?"
  1069. * Carmen_Chapman shrugs somewhat nervously
  1070. <Carmen_Chapman> "Hell if I know"
  1071. <Carmen_Chapman> "S p cool though"
  1072. <Maddox> "Yeah. What else is up here?"
  1073. * Maddox looks around
  1074. <ProcyonDM> Theres a bunch of random nick nacks and fortune telling parahernalia.
  1075. <Maddox> "I guess the machine kind of fits with the general theme of what is stored here."
  1076. <ProcyonDM> There are bent swords, jars filled with neon liquids, some with organic matter suspended inside.
  1077. <ProcyonDM> Theres a few magic 8 balls, some broken.
  1078. * Maddox I look around for any names or other identifying information as to who could have store these here.
  1079. <ProcyonDM> roll perception
  1080. <Maddox> !roll 1d20+3
  1081. <NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d20+3 --> [ 1d20=6 ] | {9}
  1082. <ProcyonDM> You dont find anything.
  1083. <Maddox> "Weird."
  1084. <Carmen_Chapman> "I kinda looted this place already?"
  1085. <Carmen_Chapman> "Idk I didnt look really hard somea this stuff looX kinda bogus..."
  1086. <Maddox> "Yeah."
  1087. * Maddox goes up to some of the jars, trying to guess what they may contain.
  1088. <Carmen_Chapman> "I used somea that stuff to make a magic potion!!!"
  1089. * Carmen_Chapman laughs
  1090. <Carmen_Chapman> "It was really fuckin fake but the peeps who took it didnt know that!!!"
  1091. * Maddox laughs a bit too
  1092. <Maddox> "I really hope they didn't drink it."
  1093. <Carmen_Chapman> "LOL"
  1094. <Carmen_Chapman> "I got a whole village of lizard peeps to drink it!"
  1095. <Maddox> "Uh...."
  1096. <Maddox> "You check on them afterwards?"
  1097. <Carmen_Chapman> "Kinda?"
  1098. <Carmen_Chapman> "Not really"
  1099. <Carmen_Chapman> "I left Eyepatch dude there to take care of shit"
  1100. <Maddox> "..."
  1101. <Carmen_Chapman> "Hes p cool I guess"
  1102. * Carmen_Chapman grins
  1103. <Carmen_Chapman> "Oh dude I put some alcohol in there too n some REALLY stinky fishy shit"
  1104. <Maddox> "And they actually drank it?"
  1105. <Carmen_Chapman> "Course they did!"
  1106. <Maddox> "Crazy."
  1107. <Carmen_Chapman> "I told em it was a cure of all the magiX to their bogus curse thing!!!"
  1108. * Maddox keeps rifling through the knicknacks to see if there is anything interesting left.
  1109. <Carmen_Chapman> "Gave em all an inspirational speech n shit too"
  1110. <Maddox> "Well, hopefully they don't hate you now."
  1111. <Carmen_Chapman> "Dude Im like their hero now I like saved the WHOLE village!"
  1112. <Maddox> "Maybe the placebo effect will do the job."
  1113. <Maddox> "Or you actually nailed the cure somehow!"
  1114. <Carmen_Chapman> "Lol they were never aXually cursed they just thought they were"
  1115. * Maddox continues rifling
  1116. <Carmen_Chapman> "U lookin for somethin?"
  1117. <ProcyonDM> you find a rusted out gun
  1118. * Maddox picks up the gun, inspecting it.
  1119. <ProcyonDM> you find a nice looking model of a japanese style temple
  1120. <ProcyonDM> its useless, the barrel rcompletely rusted though
  1121. <ProcyonDM> through
  1122. <ProcyonDM> ((its a revolver btw))
  1123. <Maddox> "This place seems like it might have something useful for crafting."
  1124. <Carmen_Chapman> "Oh!"
  1125. * Maddox puts the gun back down, continuing his search
  1126. <Carmen_Chapman> "I got this crystal ball thingy when I was here before"
  1127. <Carmen_Chapman> "It looX p fake to me but it kinda reminds me of the shit that old lizard lady had at the circus"
  1128. <Carmen_Chapman> "The one who gave me these sweet tattoo thingies!"
  1129. * Carmen_Chapman points to the complex designs on her arms and stuff
  1130. <Carmen_Chapman> "I tried usin it in the alcheme-whatever thing"
  1131. <Maddox> "Any interesting results?"
  1132. <Carmen_Chapman> "Said I didnt have grist shit or somethin"
  1133. <Carmen_Chapman> "Maybe itll work now that we totes rekt those monsters???"
  1134. <Maddox> "Probably!"
  1135. <Maddox> "I need to figure out a way to make something better than a lightsaber."
  1136. <Carmen_Chapman> "DUDE"
  1137. <Carmen_Chapman> "We should try n miX ur lightsaber thing with my chainsaw!!!"
  1138. * Maddox grins wide.
  1139. <Maddox> "YES. VERY YES."
  1140. <Carmen_Chapman> "When I got this fuckin badass jugglin club fire chainsaw it got a bunch easier to swing around n shit"
  1141. <Carmen_Chapman> "Fire lightsaber chainsaw...."
  1142. * Carmen_Chapman 's jaw drops as she imagines the awesome
  1143. <Maddox> "We should probably go kill some more monsters though."
  1144. * Carmen_Chapman is broken out of her reverie
  1145. <Carmen_Chapman> "Yeah probs"
  1146. * Maddox looks around for the exit
  1147. * Carmen_Chapman knoX on MaddoX's armor
  1148. <Carmen_Chapman> "Whered u get this armor stuff???"
  1149. <Carmen_Chapman> "LooX p sweet"
  1150. <Maddox> "Well, I got some weird green armor by randoming punching a code into the machine.
  1151. <ProcyonDM> Theres a door.
  1152. <Carmen_Chapman> "Cooool"
  1153. <Carmen_Chapman> "U done lookin around here?"
  1154. <Maddox> Then I upgraded it by cutting a toy version of darth vader's chestplate off and using that."
  1155. <Maddox> "Yeah. Lets go."
  1156. <Carmen_Chapman> "U GOTTA SEE THIS THING"
  1157. * Carmen_Chapman heads for the doorway that leads to the outside of the pyramid
  1158. * Maddox follows quickly
  1159. <ProcyonDM> Alright carmen can you exaplin it any beter than i can? I had to use a drawing last time lol
  1160. <Carmen_Chapman> ((hahaha))
  1161. <Carmen_Chapman> The door opens to a small hallway that empties straight out to the outside of the pyramid, pretty near the top
  1162. <Carmen_Chapman> As the hallway reaches the outside, the ceiling of the hallway disappears first as it reaches the slanted outside of the pyramid.
  1163. <Carmen_Chapman> The walls get shorter and shorter as the hallway continues, as the exterior of the pyramid continues sloping down.
  1164. <Carmen_Chapman> Eventually the flay floor of the hallway just stops, spilling directly out onto the massive slope of the pyramid exterior.
  1165. <Carmen_Chapman> *flat
  1166. * Maddox understates, "wow"
  1167. <Carmen_Chapman> Walking out into the exterior a bit and looking back, you can see the pyramid continues up higher a little bit, but not much
  1168. <Carmen_Chapman> You're basically at the top of the pyramid, and vast swaths of the Land of Beats and Spectacles are easily visible.
  1169. <Carmen_Chapman> You can see a lot of different biomes, kind of like Minecraft, scattered around, some more distant than others.
  1170. <Carmen_Chapman> Visible areas include the plains you traveled through before, a village a ways off, a jungle, a snowy area with mountains, etc etc (I don't remember all of them)
  1171. <Maddox> "This place is so diverse."
  1172. <Carmen_Chapman> ((that's all I got on the confusing layout, you can take the description from here Alex))
  1173. <Carmen_Chapman> "I havent even like BEEN to most of those places!"
  1174. * Carmen_Chapman points to the village and to a larger hill/mountain in the distance in the plains
  1175. <Carmen_Chapman> "Thats the village I was tellin u bout before... n I also went there"
  1176. <ProcyonDM> ((sounds good to me on the exit front))
  1177. * Carmen_Chapman points back towards her house
  1178. <Carmen_Chapman> "Thats where we came from"
  1179. <Carmen_Chapman> "Idk what any of the other stuff is!"
  1180. <Carmen_Chapman> "Parently theres like somethin I sposed to be doin here but I kinda just wanna have fun n stuff"
  1181. * Maddox laughs
  1182. <Carmen_Chapman> "All peeps keep sayin is jus to 'follow my heart' or some shit so Im gonna just keep doin whatever I want!"
  1183. <Maddox> "Yeah, I figure that doing the stuff we're supposed to gets us cooler stuff though. A mix is probably good."
  1184. <Maddox> "Really? Most of my guys just screamed and died and stuff."
  1185. * Maddox frowns
  1186. <Carmen_Chapman> "Well like most of em dont give a fuck bout me"
  1187. <Carmen_Chapman> "Theyre just doin their own shit like havin a circus or makin food or somethin"
  1188. <Carmen_Chapman> "But theres like these rando cryptic peeps that say stuff like that sometimes"
  1189. <Carmen_Chapman> "Kinda like a shitty video game or somethin"
  1190. * Carmen_Chapman shrugs
  1191. <Maddox> "This whole thing is a crappy video game."
  1192. <Carmen_Chapman> "Yeah whatevs doesnt seem like theres anythin wrong with doin what were doin now"
  1193. <Maddox> "Yeah."
  1194. <Carmen_Chapman> "U see anythin from up here u wanna go see???"
  1195. <Maddox> "Not really. The jungle might have really bad bugs, and I don't have the warmest of clothes for the snowy place."
  1196. <Carmen_Chapman> "Ive got like the BEST coats n shit at home"
  1197. <Maddox> "oh yeah, you lived up north, didn't you?"
  1198. <Maddox> "That could work."
  1199. <Carmen_Chapman> "S what happens when u live in freezin ass Minnesota"
  1200. <Carmen_Chapman> "N have a paranoid as fuck dad that someones gonna sabotage the heating"
  1201. <Maddox> "We could also try your portals, see where those go."
  1202. <Carmen_Chapman> "Portals?"
  1203. <Maddox> "Remember the circles above your house? we talked about them before."
  1204. <Maddox> "Second one goes to my planet. We don't know where the first one goes."
  1205. <Carmen_Chapman> "O yeah! I totes forgot about those!" :P
  1206. * Carmen_Chapman summons her captchalogue tree and picks a leaf off to retrieve her phone
  1207. * Carmen_Chapman taXe a piXure of the jungle area and the snowy area to remember where they are
  1208. <Carmen_Chapman> "Lets get a pic of us!!!"
  1209. <Maddox> "Sure!"
  1210. * Carmen_Chapman flips the phone camera to the selfie camera
  1211. * Maddox sidles up into the camera's range
  1212. * Carmen_Chapman grabs MaddoX's shoulder and tugs him in close and snaps a couple pictures with the picturesque scenery in the background
  1213. * Carmen_Chapman reviews the pictures before recaptchaloging the phone
  1214. <Maddox> "There we go!"
  1215. * Carmen_Chapman waggles her eyebrows
  1216. <Maddox> "So, do we slide down the side of the pyramid? Seems like the fastest way down if we can figure it out."
  1217. <Carmen_Chapman> "U ready????"
  1218. <Maddox> "Sure!"
  1219. * Carmen_Chapman summons her captchalogue tree and pulls off a different leaf to decaptchalogue the wagon
  1220. <Carmen_Chapman> "We gonna get all calvin n hobbes up in this shit!"
  1221. * Maddox laughs
  1222. <Carmen_Chapman> "Its like the best thing EVER!!!"
  1223. <Carmen_Chapman> "I took a video last time n it was p crazy!"
  1224. <Carmen_Chapman> "U want front or back?"
  1225. <Maddox> "Yeah, you sent me it."
  1226. <Maddox> "Your pick!"
  1227. <Carmen_Chapman> "Dibs front!"
  1228. * Maddox climbs in behind
  1229. * Carmen_Chapman situates the wagon straight in the hallway and sits in front holding the handle
  1230. <Carmen_Chapman> "U wanna push us off mr strong dude?"
  1231. <Carmen_Chapman> "Maybe use ur magic powers???"
  1232. <Maddox> "Said, Mrs Strong gal."
  1233. * Maddox pushes off with telekinesis, using all four instances.
  1234. <ProcyonDM> You launch off the ledge, onto th e glass of the pyramid below
  1235. <ProcyonDM> Roll dex both of you, maddox twice though
  1236. <Maddox> !roll 2#1d20
  1237. <NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 2#1d20 --> | [ 1d20=3 ]{3}, [ 1d20=4 ]{4}

  1239. <Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+0 dex
  1240. <NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d20+0 --> [ 1d20=5 ] | {5}

  1242. <ProcyonDM> deary me.
  1243. <Maddox> ((Bonus points for a straight?))
  1244. <ProcyonDM> sorry lad.
  1245. <ProcyonDM> You push off the ledge and immediately start to swerve.
  1246. <Carmen_Chapman> "AH FUCK!"
  1247. * Maddox attempts to immidiately telekinettically correct
  1248. <ProcyonDM> there it is
  1249. <ProcyonDM> You attempt to correct it-
  1250. <ProcyonDM> and completely over compensate.
  1251. <ProcyonDM> You knock the cart so far sideways it doesnt swerve, it jsut rolls
  1252. * Maddox begins screaming, not in the good way
  1253. <ProcyonDM> you are barely 1/3 of the way there and youre both almost falling out
  1254. <Maddox> ((What speed are we moving at by this point?
  1255. * Carmen_Chapman sorts of laughs and screams at the same time
  1256. <ProcyonDM> certinaly not anything small
  1257. <ProcyonDM> maybe like
  1258. <ProcyonDM> does like 10 mph sound too small
  1259. <Carmen_Chapman> That's like a slow bicycle speed
  1260. <Carmen_Chapman> ((Not sure how that translates to a wagon though...))
  1261. <ProcyonDM> oh
  1262. <ProcyonDM> then probably about double that
  1263. <Maddox> We're probably at like 28+
  1264. <ProcyonDM> yeah
  1265. <ProcyonDM> sounds good to me
  1266. <ProcyonDM> lets just say youd be speeding in a school zone
  1267. * Carmen_Chapman tries to steer the wagon handle back to down the pyramid rather than sideways
  1268. <Maddox> So how bad shape are we in right now?
  1269. <ProcyonDM> its rolled over once and youre both about to fall out
  1270. <ProcyonDM> only staying in by holding onto the edges
  1271. <ProcyonDM> speaking of
  1272. <ProcyonDM> roll strength
  1273. <ProcyonDM> hopefully you do better than that abysmal dex roll
  1274. <Carmen_Chapman> !roll 1d20+6 strength
  1275. <NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d20+6 --> [ 1d20=6 ] | {12}
  1276. <ProcyonDM> The stright continues
  1277. <ProcyonDM> maddox are you trying to hold on?
  1278. <Maddox> yeah
  1279. <Maddox> !roll 1d20+4
  1280. <NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d20+4 --> [ 1d20=7 ] | {11}
  1281. <ProcyonDM> ok
  1282. <ProcyonDM> we just got 3, 4,5,6,7 rolls in a row
  1283. <ProcyonDM> is this bot working
  1284. <Maddox> Yes.
  1285. <Maddox> !roll 1d20
  1286. <NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=17 ] | {17}
  1287. <Maddox> see?
  1288. <ProcyonDM> ok
  1289. <Maddox> we just suck.
  1290. <ProcyonDM> lol i was getting suspicious
  1291. <Carmen_Chapman> Yup
  1292. <ProcyonDM> Carmen is unable to right the wagon
  1293. <ProcyonDM> it is now sliding on it side down the pyramid, about half way down, going around 35mph~
  1294. * Maddox 's telekinetic attempts to right the cart fail, concentration being lost from panic
  1295. <ProcyonDM> you are both managing to keep hold of it, but as the speed increases, the jumps the wagon makes whenevr it hits an impoerfection in the pyramid begin to become more and more drastic
  1296. * Carmen_Chapman yells, trying to make it over the wind and banging of the wagon
  1297. <Carmen_Chapman> "WHAT THE FUCK DO WE DO???"
  1298. <Maddox> "AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
  1299. <ProcyonDM> Youre aso beginning to be pushed toward the dront as the wagon bashes the pyramid and slows, somewhat
  1300. <ProcyonDM> front*
  1301. <Maddox> Yelling and hoping death will not come continue.
  1302. <Carmen_Chapman> <ProcyonDM> Youre aso beginning to be pushed toward the dront as the wagon bashes the pyramid and slows, somewhat
  1303. <Carmen_Chapman> <ProcyonDM> front*
  1304. <Carmen_Chapman> <Maddox> Yelling and hoping death will not come continue.
  1305. <Carmen_Chapman> ((I'm not sure Carmen would do now other than hold on))
  1306. * Carmen_Chapman holds on for dear life, screaming and laughing the whole way
  1307. <ProcyonDM_> Since neither of you can save your selves, the next time the wagon hits a bump you are both biked out the front
  1308. <ProcyonDM_> Bucked*
  1309. * Maddox attempts to land on his feet somehow
  1310. * Carmen_Chapman screams, flailing as she flies through the air, trying to catch herself with her hands or knees or something wherever she lands
  1311. <ProcyonDM_> Let's get some dex rolls
  1312. <ProcyonDM_> Maddox your dc is much higher
  1313. <Maddox> !roll 1d20
  1314. <NOTTyche[Dice]> rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=9 ] | {9}

  1321. <Carmen_Chapman> Plus 2 if acrobatics
  1322. <Maddox> ProcyonDM_
  1323. <ProcyonDM_> Carmen you manage to go into a great slide, nailing the landing
  1324. <ProcyonDM_> Maddox doesn't as well
  1325. <ProcyonDM_> Have you ever tried to run down too steep a slope?
  1326. <Maddox> Yes, but maddox does have flashstep :P
  1327. <ProcyonDM_> You manage to catch yourself for a few strides, but quickly begin to lose your balance
  1328. <ProcyonDM_> Oh well
  1329. <ProcyonDM_> He certainly can use flash step
  1330. * Maddox attempts to use variable flashstepping to slow down by slowly looping around / if we're near the bottom making it to the bottom.
  1331. <Procyon> maddox is able to flash step himself slower, but carmen still slides down the cliff
  1332. <Procyon> pyrmid
  1333. <Maddox> ~10pp maybe then?
  1334. <Procyon> yeh
  1335. <Procyon> whats your max?
  1336. <Maddox> 40
  1337. <Procyon> nyway maddox youve succesfully sloed yourself, but youre bout to strt accelerting again
  1338. <Maddox> From my slower speed, I attempt to start a controlled slide.

  1348. <Carmen_Chapman> cool

  1350. <Procyon> youre bout to impact the ground
  1351. <Procyon> roll dex to help yourself
  1352. <Procyon> like to lnd gracefully
  1353. <Carmen_Chapman> ((I thought she was in a great slide?))
  1354. <Carmen_Chapman> ((or was she and now she's tumbling again?))

  1365. <Procyon> feet
  1366. <Carmen_Chapman> "OOF"
  1367. * Maddox is still sprawled on the ground, having accidentally eaten sand.
  1368. * Maddox rolls over and spits the sand out.
  1369. <Maddox> "I could have done that a bit better."
  1370. * Carmen_Chapman steadies herself to make sure everything has stopped zipping around
  1371. <Carmen_Chapman> "WHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"
  1372. <Carmen_Chapman> "THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!"
  1373. * Carmen_Chapman looX around, trying to find where MaddoX's voice came from
  1374. * Carmen_Chapman finds him and runs over
  1375. <Carmen_Chapman> "Oh fuck!"
  1376. <Carmen_Chapman> "U okay dude???"
  1377. <Maddox> "Yeah, I'm fine."
  1378. * Maddox picks himself up and brushes himself off.
  1379. <Maddox> "I am not nailing anything today."
  1380. * Carmen_Chapman shrugs
  1381. <Carmen_Chapman> "Sometimes days are just kinda shit"
  1382. <Carmen_Chapman> "Whatevs"
  1383. <Carmen_Chapman> "U used magic powers n stuff with those hands that was sweet!!!"
  1384. * Maddox nods
  1385. * Maddox splits out the last of the sand, and looks around.
  1386. <Maddox> "At least we didn't get hit by the cart."
  1387. <Carmen_Chapman> "Oh yeah where is that thing anyways?"
  1388. <Carmen_Chapman> "I love that wagon!"
  1389. * Carmen_Chapman looX around
  1390. <Procyon> you guys didnt fll out of where you strted
  1391. <Procyon> its not on this side
  1392. <Carmen_Chapman> ((I thought we rode down in it?))
  1393. * Maddox well, I guess we circle around.

  1398. <Maddox> lol
  1399. <Procyon> the wagon is off on the ground somewhere
  1400. <Procyon> seems to be intact
  1401. * Carmen_Chapman bounces over to retrieve it
  1402. * Maddox walks over and inspects it as well, making sure it isn't damaged
  1403. <Procyon> its scuffed up but unbroken
  1404. <Carmen_Chapman> "Nice!"
  1405. * Maddox looks around for monsters, as usual.
  1406. * Carmen_Chapman pulls the wagon behind her as they go wherever they go
  1407. <Maddox> "Well, that was definitely... something? I think I'm on an adrenaline low right now."
  1408. <Maddox> "I enjoyed it though."
  1409. * Carmen_Chapman gives him a big thumbs up
  1410. <Carmen_Chapman> "U betcha it was great!!!"
  1411. <Carmen_Chapman> "Where do u wanna go now???"
  1412. <Carmen_Chapman> "Now that we got that grist stuff we could try makin some shit"
  1413. <Carmen_Chapman> "There's a spooky house thing I found"

  1415. <Carmen_Chapman> "Maybe the circus is up an runnin again?"
  1416. <Carmen_Chapman> "Theres so much shit all over!!!"
  1417. <Maddox> "Its so great!"
  1418. <Maddox> "I think we should head back to your house real quick and try making some stuff."
  1419. <Maddox> "Maybe then the circus or the spooky house after that?"
  1420. <Carmen_Chapman> "Cool"
  1421. * Carmen_Chapman looX around for Myke
  1422. <Procyon> he however is round the sdie
  1423. <Procyon> you cant see him from here
  1424. * Maddox starts walking around the pyramid back to where we started

  1429. <Maddox> "There he is."
  1430. <Carmen_Chapman> "Woot!!!"
  1431. * Carmen_Chapman hops over to Myke and give him a bug fuzzy hug
  1432. * Maddox follows, at more of a jogging pace
  1433. <Procyon> he wakes up and is midlly strtlede
  1434. <Procyon> he huffs in acknowlegment
  1435. * Carmen_Chapman rubs his head
