Current revision as of 16:57, 10 August 2009
- OOC: AP declares that Mossy Knoll is an alternate universe of the War thread, where the War itself did not take place:
- "Lets say that the war with Svensylsquatostan happened, but came to a peaceful ending, and afterward Kraggi decided to send people on an expedition into the wastelands, those of whom found 'oasis', and seeign as it had excellent defences from attack, found it to be a good Haven to vacate to for some R&R. Though Ann took the opportunity first, Kraggi soon followed and joined the small recreational town."
- OOC: Grim explains how the Author Brothers came to Mossy Knoll.
Clothing Store (midnight)
- Xiao emerges, wearing his newly-purchased clothing, and looks around for some shelter. He enters the Rex, which is open, even though it is midnight for him. Then again, he did just come from the clothing store, which was somehow also open at midnight... He then sits down at an empty table, and falls asleep.
The Rex (somewhat earlier)
- Ann giggles as the other "Anns" lick her paws clean. Lomgren is somewhat embarrassed to view this, and asks if they can go now.
Elsewhere
- JJA and company arrive at Jusenkyo.
- Scribble dives into one of the springs, and emerges unchanged, much to JJA's surprise (and confusion). Scribble explains that being a shapeshifter, he is not affected by the water unless he cooses to be.
The Rex
- Ann retracts her paws, and gets ready to go. Knave has already put money on the table to pay for the meal.
Town
- Ann, the Knaves, Rose and Lomgren leave the Rex, and set out for the Deathmanse.
- Lomgren finds the whole idea of the Deathmanse a bit creepy, especially with all the ghosts around.
- The five walk into the Deathmanse, which has a number of ghosts present, plus all the usual touches of a haunted house. This does nothing for Lomgren's nervousness...
Deathmanse
- Ann-KF and Rose-KF give a tour.
- Ann and Lomgren get tired and sleepy. Lomgren goes off with a ghost butler, who looks remarkably like the waiter at the pub, to the Black Suite, where he spends the night.
Elsewhere
- JJA and company arrive back home, with Jusenkyo water.
- Sage goes back to his tower, and goes to sleep.
Deathmanse
- The others go off to the Royal Engagement Suite, where they all go to sleep.

JJA's Lab
- Scribble and JJA combine forces to create the TF-X, the most powerful TF gun ever created.
Town
- The Crew (Krid) turn up. They go down into the abandoned Soviet underground shelter that Keb has somehow transported to Mossy Knoll.
The Rex
- Xiao wakes up. He then goes out, and finds out where he is from a random passer-by.
Tower of VOR
- Lora wakes up, to discover a large black cat sitting on her chest. The cat introduces herself as Liz, and insists that Lora put out food for her. After some discussion, Liz instructs Lora to make pasta.
Deathmanse
- Lomgren manages to find his way to the door of the Black Suite (everything in the room is black, and there are no light sources). The appearance of the butler does not help his nervousness any...
- The butler checks on the Knaves, and informs Lomgren that they are just waking up.
- The others wake up in the Royal Engagement Suite.

Kraggi's House
