RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - Florien - 07-16-2021
Malakhiri jerks awake the moment Kondraki is within grabbing distance. They grab at his arm, missing entirely, while they yell
THE OLD GODS FROWN MOST SEVERELY ON WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO THEIR HERALD!
After more ranting about how foolish Kondraki's impiety towards the old gods is, Malakhiri decides to target everyone else with further raving about how the storm is the work of the old gods to punish everyone for their shortsighted and wicked ways.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - KungFuCutbug - 07-16-2021
"...so we're frozen in here..." [The Soul collapses onto the floor in something resembling a fetal position.] "we're so doomed..."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - artsyGeek - 07-16-2021
[. .he's both mad and disappointed at Malak.]
"And just when I thought we're done with your bullshit. ."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - Magolor - 07-16-2021
So he was faking it...
"You've got a lot to explain, old man, and not about the old gods!"
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - Weirdguy149 - 07-16-2021
"Huh-huh! Silly employee! There are no gods here. Just me, all of you, and the pizza we'll make for all these loving customers that will come here eventually."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - MadameButterflyKnife - 07-16-2021
Blue just seems more and more fed up with Malak's bullshit. Swear to DESTROYA...you know what? We shouldn't bother ourselves with them. At best, they're just any other cultist, just weirdly passionate. At worst, we can throw them into the storm if they actually pose a threat to us. Right now though, they just seem to be lunatic talk.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - KungFuCutbug - 07-16-2021
"we're doomed... god is probably telling the creepy 'herald' to purify us all from sin, and to sacrifice us to prove their faith and devotion to him." [The next part is mumbled and muffled, so you can't tell what the Soul is saying, but... it vaguely sounds like they've mentioned their mother?]
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - Florien - 07-16-2021
Malakhiri stands up and derisively snorts at Lotus.
I HAVE NOTHING TO EXPLAIN TO THE UNENLIGHTENED SUCH AS YOU! ANSWER YOUR OWN QUESTIONS. I SPIT ON YOU! METAPHORICALLY! FOR CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO GODLINESS!
They then set to picking up their overpriced ritual candles and stashing them away in their room.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - KungFuCutbug - 07-16-2021
[...Malakhiri might notice that one of their black candles is missing.]
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - artsyGeek - 07-16-2021
". .as extreme as a measure that is, I honestly don't think it's a bad idea to throw them out into this Godforsaken storm. Whoever they are, they're pretty disposable compared to you lot."
[Kondraki looks at his now broken camera.] "It's unfortunate such a person exists here, otherwise I wouldn't have to risk this camera getting destroyed just to get them to shut up."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - Caret - 07-16-2021
Nellie throws himself onto the couch; seemingly not being bothered by the sheer cold. The cultist is insane, but we should probably wait to throw them until they actually start a blood ritual or something. And the reason I know about all of this that... I'm a fan of fantasy works and RPGS! Yeah."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - MadameButterflyKnife - 07-16-2021
Blue takes a look at the camera. I'll try and help you fix that up. No promises, but there should be something we can use to fix that. It won't be good as new, but...it'll keep going.
>try and find spare parts that can be used to fix the camera
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - Cassie - 07-16-2021
> camera spare parts
...does this cabin look like it would harbor such stuff anywhere?
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - artsyGeek - 07-16-2021
> . .wait a sec how damaged is the camera exactly? Is it to the point it's rendered unusable or. .?
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - MadameButterflyKnife - 07-16-2021
Yes, the narration snarks, because the narrator can't see what the cabin looks like other than a floor plan made of nothing but simple lines.
Can't seem to find anything. Looks like we are pretty far from the city, then. Usually I'd find scrap everywhere.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - Magolor - 07-16-2021
Lotus simply stares as the cultist walks off. How rude!
Turning her attention back to the dead freaking body, she mutters to herself.
"This definitely wasn't a suicide, so who could have killed them...?"
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - Cassie - 07-16-2021
>camera damage check
The baseball-like strike Tainted Soul did made a big dent on the side of the camera, and the resulting speed at which it struck Malak and then hit the floor shattered the lens glass until parts of it are missing, and the zooming piece (or whatever it's called) partially crushed.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - KungFuCutbug - 07-16-2021
[The Soul is now sitting in front of their skeleton in the corner furthest away from Malakhiri and/or their room, a lit black candle melting on top of the skull. Seems like they pilfered it from Malakhiri and are now using it for warmth. ...Soul, there's a fireplace.]
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - artsyGeek - 07-16-2021
[He sighs in disappointment. It's. .not the camera he usually use, and while he's glad he didn't bring that one, it's still kind of bad news. He looks at Blue, looking. .ever so slightly pitiful.]
". .sorry to burst your bubble, but I don't think anyone who's not a camera technician could fix this."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - KungFuCutbug - 07-16-2021
[The Soul turns towards Kondraki and notices the horrifically-mangled camera.] "...oh..." [They quietly lower their head, once again burying their face in their hood. That seems to be a nervous habit or a tic of some sort.] "did i break it when i hit it towards the creepy 'herald' man? of course i did... i'm sorry. i was just trying to help you shut them up. it didn't even work and i broke your camera. why am i so clumsy? if i could just pilot my body again... no, that probably wouldn't even fix it..."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - MadameButterflyKnife - 07-16-2021
Yeah, it does seem pretty broken. Without the resources...I mean, I have some experience fixing stuff, but not cameras. Sometimes the opposite, actually.
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - artsyGeek - 07-16-2021
". .probably. But hey, A for effort - You're a pretty good batter for a kid, I'll admit."
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - KungFuCutbug - 07-16-2021
[The Soul... isn't exactly sure how to respond to Kondraki's sudden compliment. So they just nod in acknowledgment, keeping themself silent out of worry they'll say something wrong and cause Kondraki to not like them anymore.]
RE: Murder in the Mountains (Day 1) - Caret - 07-16-2021
Since it looks like Nellie is going to be stuck here for a while, he will go familiarize himself with what the cabin has to offer, starting with the laundry room.
> check out the laundry room
