New Arrivals [text] (Actually updating regularly this time, I swear to god)

> Search for urchins

You don't do that, as you're not at sea, and there aren't any summoners that you know of in town. Doing so otherwise would just be silly.

>Flip your shit until he admits you called it first.

You don't feel the need to do that since it's obvious that you called it first, and there isn't any need to confirm that.

No, you did it first, just admit it. Fuck you, you're a damn liar and those are some horribly offensive things that you're saying and that is fucking IT

You flip your shit. What will you do?

You are now Gene, and you are seriously considering hitting the kid a few more times for his crappy attempts at being witty. You mean, who would even try to do that? They'd just end up looking stupid, obviously. In the meantime though, he's currently tapping on the rather thick door on the other end of the room, a slightly muffled voice coming from the other side in return.

"Password?"

"Your password is a lie."

"Correct. Give me a second."

"Oh, by the way, I brought a friend. Try not to shoot him on sight."

"We don't bring other people down here, you know that. You're the one who made the damn rule in the first place."

"He followed me. We'll deal with him later."

"Your daddy issues, or some random guy?

"Daddy issues. Just leave him alive long enough for us to figure out what to do with him."

"And hello to you too, hope you're having a nice day as well."

"Hey, I'm just surprised you're still here. You wouldn't be the first guy to try to come down here."

"How about I don't kill you, and you don't kill me, and we can all be one big happy family, ok?"

"That'll work for now. No guarantees later though."

There's some random clicking as the guy works the lock on the other side. You're ready for any random backstabbing, despite the warm welcome you've gotten.

What will you do?

[Jetroid]

>Bludgeon them to death as soon as you can.
no don't do that.

>Go in?

>Cautiously.

[Sparks]

>Bludgeon them to death as soon as you can.
no don't do that.

Oh hey, you seem to have developed a mental defence against the more violent commands of your subconscious voices. Neat.

>Go in?

>Cautiously.

You keep your shield up as you walk in, and as it turns out, this room is a hell of a lot nicer than the last one. While the room you entered in seemed fairly old, this one seems to have been refurbished, since the walls have a much newer looking coat of paint, the floor is clean and carpeted, and the room's furniture consists of a large table in the centre, various expensive looking chairs, a few cabinets, a on the wall, a large map of what appears to be the city, with various notes and things pinned onto it.

You also can't help but notice the collection of knives and crossbows on one of the walls, and how close they are to new guy, who's currently pointing a nasty looking crossbow with an odd rectangular piece of metal sticking on the top of it. Something to hold more arrows? Scope? Either way, it appears to be lowered, and you're not putting down your shield until he puts it down.

You take advantage of the standoff to get a good look at him. He looks almost your age, maybe a year younger at best, with short light brown hair, somewhat long nose, and very thin lips, which to his credit, do help give him a little bit of help in your glare-off. He's built a bit bulkier than you or Jack, with broad shoulders on his somewhat short frame, and he's wearing a very plain grey coat and black pants, which look very well put together, with none of the rough edges or loose qualities of Jack's clothes, and are probably custom made for him out of something expensive. He's probably where the money came from for this place.

The fact that you've had enough time to analyse him shows that your standoff has gone a little too long already, and he decides to talk first.

"I suppose this'd be your friend?"

"That would be me. You might want to put that thing away."

"And you're the one who came in with the shield up. What, you don't trust me? I'm hurt by your low opinion of me."

"This isn't going to go anywhere. Just put it down."

For once, Jack seems to agree with you, and motions for the guy to put the crossbow down. He does, and returns it to an inventory ring that appears to be on one of his fingers, judging by the fact that he didn't reach for a pocket or anything.

He quickly ignores you and goes to address Jack, who greets him warmly, before quickly getting to business.

"Good to see you made it. Any longer and I might have had to cancel things."

"I had to deal with that guy. Just another 'bodyguard', a little faster than usual."

"You're losing your touch. I reccomend stretching first next time."

"He electrocuted me, ok? I was right in the entrance when he did it."

"Forgive me if I'm not impressed. I would've thought you'd ditch him in the tunnel."

"Unlike you, I've got a father who'd actually care if the guy he put to monitor me when mysteriously missing. Either way, I'm here, and that's what's important."

"You sure you want to do this while he's here?"

You cheerfully wave when they quickly turn to look at you.

"Oh, don't mind me, keep going."

They continue, but they're whispering now. You're going to need to try something if you're going to get anything out of them.

What will you do?

[Jetroid]

>Ogle Vacantly.

[red pharoah]

> Find some eagle vision goggles and use them to eavesdrop from 10 feet away

[ninjamaster1991]

Use the command appropriate for anytime you don't have anything to do.

> Look around.

[Sparks]

Use the command appropriate for anytime you don't have anything to do.

> Look around.

You look around, and notice that while the room you entered in seemed fairly old, this one seems to have been refurbished, since the walls have a much newer looking coat of wait a second you already did this. Great.

> Find some eagle vision goggles and use them to eavesdrop from 10 feet away

That's not going to do much to help your lip-reading skills. Maybe if they invented eagle hearing goggles, then you might consider going and looking for some. Maybe you could go look in the other rooms, if you wouldn't probably get shot for it. You need a better plan.

>Ogle Vacantly.

While unsettling, this doesn't do a good job for your shaky reputation for them. You cease your foolish ogling quickly. You should probably just go address them directly or something.

What will you do?

[red pharoah]

> Establish superiority over them by punching the nearest one in the nose

[Jetroid]

>Slowly move closer to them. Pretend to be doing other things.

[Sparks]

> Establish superiority over them by punching the nearest one in the nose

You punch Jack in the nose to establish superiority.

"What the fuck was that for!?"

"If I start, we're going to be here for a while."

"He's got you there."

"Fuck you. Fuck you both."

This seems to have helped raise the other guy's opinion of you, but not enough for them to let you in on their conversation.

What will you do?

[Jetroid]

>Punch him again.

>"And that was for swearing."

[Xindaris]

>Offer to help with their whatever, provided it either isn't illegal or has good reasons for being illegal.

[red pharoah]

> YOU ARE THIRSTY, DEMAND A DRINK

[goggleman64]

> YOU ARE THIRSTY, DEMAND A DRINK

Also something to eat.

Begin examining your surroundings for things that might fetch a good price at a fantasy pawn shop

[Sparks]

>Punch him again.

>"And that was for swearing."

"Oh fuck you."

He gets the predictable result. He leans this time and just glares at you, which is a shame. One more punch and he gets a free kick, too.

> YOU ARE THIRSTY, DEMAND A DRINK

You politely ask if there's anything to drink, and, eager to get you away, they direct you towards the kitchen of the place, saying that they've got plenty of water in a tank at the sink. You head in, but you keep the door slightly open just in case they start speaking up loud enough for you to overhear them.

The kitchen itself isn't much to look at, being fairly small and sparsely set, with cooking and eating implements in a drawer, a sink, some space to cook with a basic stove and the supplies needed to fuel it, a pantry in the corner of the room, and a couple of other randoms things such as a bin set into the wall and apparently leading into a pit and other things. You quickly scout the room for invisible thieves, although they luckily remain fictional.

You grab a glass and head for the sink and examine the water supply, which is literally a glass sheet allowing you to see the water in its entirely, steel sheeted on the other three walls of the tank, with a small door for refilling it at the top. You're going into detail on this because they aren't getting any louder, so you've got time to burn while you wait.

You do an amazing and unprecedented thing by drinking the water. Millions search for their medication to avoid heart attacks in shock. Now that that's done, What will you do?

Sorry again for the late update.

[red pharoah]

> Scuba dive in the sink.


>DO IT

[Sparks]

> Scuba dive in the sink.

You don't think that that would be the best idea

>DO IT

Ow. That was a terrible idea. You don't think you made too much noise though so

"What was that noise?"

shit shit SHIT

"Just dropped something, sorry about that."

No response. NAILED IT

What will you do?

[goggleman64]

Try to store the water in your inventory~

Wait do they have a spatula? Can you accessorize your shield?

[red pharoah]

> Drink already.

>Pass out from water

[Jetroid]

>Urinate into their water supplies. That'll teach 'em.

[ninjamaster1991]

Try to store the water in your inventory~

Wait do they have a spatula? Can you accessorize your shield?

All these.

[Sparks]

Try to store the water in your inventory~

Wait do they have a spatula? Can you accessorize your shield?

You're not sure that that's a good idea. You were warned that horrible things would happen if you tried to store a liquid. And due to the properties of water, wouldn't it count as many objects rather than one solid thing? You have no idea how these things work, and you don't want to wreck the place just yet, so you leave the water alone for now.

>Urinate into their water supplies. That'll teach 'em.

No. That's stupid and wouldn't achieve anything. Besides, you can't get a good enough angle on it.

Wait do they have a spatula? Can you accessorize your shield?

Well, on inspection, they do in fact have two spatulas, but you leave them alone. You're not that cruel. And as for accessories, you pick up one of the knives and have a stunning revelation. With your shield, and this knife, you can create a KNIFESHIELD. At least you could if you had anything to tie the two things together. And if it wasn't an impractical idea. You take the knife anyway and make a mental note to find some glue.

> Drink already.

You already did. Like twenty seconds ago. Maybe you need to start making a bigger deal about these things.

> Pass out from the water.

You fail to have a crippling water allergy and don't pass out. It's just water, and you only had one glass.

What will you do?

[Jetroid]

>Don't combine KNIFE and SHIELD. It'd probably do something retarded and not count as your specialised weapon or something.

>Search for other sweet lewtz.
