Atropos wonders if she can fit everyone in the tavern in her rather large goodie bag....
Drayken leans back in his chair a bit to stretch his legs out before him, two pink fuzzy bunny heads poking out from beneath
his raven black robe. Wiggling his toes a bit, he watches the heads bob up and down. "Where did you find these things? They're
wonderfully comfortable."
Immanuel still wonders how long it would take him to eat it.
Atropos jumps back in the goodie bag and pulls out more fuzzy slippers, "Right here! Aren't the great?"
Atropos ponders going swimming......in the goodie bag!
Josh wonders how many fuzzy slippers she has in there....
Drayken ponders having a pool party in the goodie bag.
Atropos is pretty sure she could fit several people in the goodie bag....
Drayken shrugs and steps up beside the goody bag, gingerly removing his slippers and keeping them to the side. Then, ever
so slowly, he moves to put one foot in, hiking up his robes as a woman might a dress as she wades into water. One foot sinks
slowly in and the necromancer flashes a quick grin, just waiting for his foot to touch bottom before setting the other one
in. Only it doesn't. Suddenly, the vampire loses is balance, one foot seemingly deeper into the goodie bag than there is goodie
bag to be deep in. In the blink of an eye, in he falls, trailed by an echoing cry.
Atropos stored 1 Drayken away.
Immanuel giggles.
Atropos said to Immanuel, "Get over here...you're next!"
Immanuel hides under at table.
Atropos holds out two eyeballs for Immanuel to see, "There's more in the goodie bag!"
Drayken calls up from somewhere far far away, the cry distant and echoing as if in some grand chamber or deep chasm. "Umm...Atropos!
Immanuel! Anyone!! I'm...I'm all right. I appear to have landed on a small mountain of slippers...but...ummm...there's things
moving in here. And not like being shaken around, I mean their really moving...and snarling...and one appears to be drooling
on me..."
Balar shouted, "Hello everyone."
Drayken can be heard from deep within the confines of the goodie bag. "Hullo Balar. Could you throw me a rope?"
Immanuel gets up from his great hiding spot and drools over the eyeballs. "More...in the bag?"
Atropos nods to Immanuel, "Yes! Many more." She tosses the eyeballs back in the bag hoping Immanuel will follow them.
Josh slowly edges away from Atropos before she notices that he is here and puts him in the bag....
Atropos said to Balar, "If you're going to be in the tavern with us, you have to wear fuzzy slippers!"
Immanuel charges forward! Throwing all caution to the wind, he leaps head first into the bag! Screaming wildly as he does!
"Eyeballs for Immy!"
Atropos glances at Josh, "Where are you going? I'm sure there's something in there you want too!"
Atropos stored 1 Immanuel away.
Balar said to Atropos, "Okay..."
Atropos grins.
Immanuel lands in a pile of slippers, and other assorted goodies. "Drayken? Are you in here?"
Drayken echoingly eeps. "Atropos! Something bit me...that is to say it's still biting me...well...its basting my arm at the
moment. It's too dark to see much, but...well hey whatever they're basting with smells kinda good...I think it's one of your
slaves but...well hang on, he's offering me the first bite..."
Josh turns around "erm...."
Drayken turns around in the goodie bag searching for the source of Immanuel's voice. "Over here! Errr...ummm...Marco!"
Atropos giggles at Drayken, "If he's offering you first bite you'd better take him up on it. Just watch out for Immanuel.
I stored him in there somewhere."
Josh walks back and sits down
Immanuel spies what he came in here for! A big pile of eyeballs! He ignores Drayken and goes to them, quickly he stuffs the
balls of goodness in his mouth! "Thanks Atropos!" Atropos? Hello?"
Atropos wiggles her toes a bit and grins at Josh, "Now...your turn. In the bag!"
Atropos can only hear a muffled noise that faintly sounds like Immanuel, "Might want to watch out for the six legged turtle,
he hasn't eaten yet today."
Josh jumps inside the bag and falls into the darkness...
Atropos stored 1 Josh away.
Drayken shrugs at his lack of response and turns back to see whatever is chewing on him feasting quite contently on his arm.
Batting it away, he starts off to search for a way out. Wiping the sauce from his arm with minor annoyance, he glances around
until he finds Immanuel haunched over stuffing balls in his mouth.
Atropos turns to Balar, "Well now...your turn. In the bag you go!"
Balar wonders what is in the goodie bag.
Josh lands on the pile of slippers
Immanuel hears a far away voice. "turtle? There are turtles in here! Help!" The seemingly brave vampire starts to run around
the bag, screeching like a girl everytime something touches his legs!
Balar jumps in the bag
Atropos pokes the goodie bag, "Hey! Don't be tearing stuff up in there."
Atropos stored 1 Balar away.
Drayken watches Josh fall from the sky...or at least what would appear to be the sky to anyone in the goodie bag. "Damn we
have good aim. I pity the person that falls anywhere else." He looks around the pile of slippers to find several piles of
sharp objects and creatures.
Atropos glances at the bag knowing she can fit more in there and ponders on going shopping again.
Josh walks around the bag studing the contents....then looks towards where the girlish screams are coming from
Atropos wonders if anyone has come across her goldfish yet.
Balar pokes Immanuel.
Immanuel starts to cry like a wounded child. "Atropos! Help me! The...the...the turtle will eat me!"
Drayken grunts loudly as Immanuel runs straight into him screeching like a girl. Falling to the ground with a gasp, he lays
prone for a moment with a mild look of annoyance. Tis just then that a six legged turtle marches directly over his chest and
continues on its way.
Atropos dumps more stuff in her goodie bag.
Balar has seen your goldfish.
Atropos tries her hardest not to laugh, "The turtle won't eat you if you offer him some of your eyeballs!"
Immanuel stops screaming and looks up. "Woah! Your bag is so big, it rains in here!"
Atropos reaches in the goodie bag, hoping to find goldfish!
Immanuel grabs Atropos' arm, and drags her into her own bag! "Nyah!"
Josh jumps out of the way of her hand
Drayken continues laying prone staring up at the "sky", wondering exactly how things could become any more bizarre, a dour
look plastered on his face, when a smoked ham falls from the sky and plows him in the face.
Josh wonders how we will get out now....
Atropos tumbles in the goodie bag on top Immanuel, "Oopsie? Now how we all gonna get outta here?"
Immanuel giggles at Drayken.
Immanuel wraps his arms around Atropos, and holds her tight! "Save me from the turtle!"
Atropos thwaps the turtle then feeds it a couple eyeballs. Quite content with the snack, the critter runs in circles before
falling over and passing out.
Balar is special
Immanuel lets go of Atropos, and looks around. "Drayken? Josh? Balar? Can anyone hear me?"
Drayken groans wearily, and pushes the ham from his face. Pushing himself to his feet, a sudden look of utter annoyance flickers
over his face and he gives a swift kick to the first thing he sees, what appears to be some random piece of armor. Only it
isn't. Though the kick sorely pains his barefoot, the object doesn't move. Not quickly anyway. Slowly it appears to rotate,
until he realizes just what it was: the six-legged turtle, now looking entirely unhappy.
Immanuel is by far the most special person in all of Hollow.
Josh hears Immanuel "i can hear you!"
Balar saves Immanuel from the turtle
Drayken backs away from the beast slowly until he runs smack into Atropos and Immanuel. "Right here...ummm...how do we get
out?"
Immanuel thinks for a while... Suddenly a larg grin plasters itself on his face. "I will eat my way out of here!"
Balar can hear Immanuel
Josh raises an eyebrow
Atropos looks from Drayken to the turtle and back to Drayken, "We can use the turtle!"
Atropos giggles at Immanuel.
Drayken searches around the bag until he finds just what he needs. Dragging a length of rope back to the group he looks around.
"If anyone has enough bow skill, we could tie this rope to an arrow and let it sail to the tavern ceiling. We could pull ourselves
out." He casts a wary glance upon Immanuel. "Eating our way out could take a while...and give us horrible stomach aches. Plus,
that turtle is ticked."
Immanuel starts to pick up random items and eat them. This game is quicky ended, when the not-so-smart vampire picks up a
dress and tries to eat that!
Balar swaloed the whole bag
Drayken said, "Or! We could tie the rope around someone's waist, fashion a crude catapolt, and launch them out of the bag."
Immanuel coughs up part of the dress. "I think we should try Drayken's idea."
Immanuel puts his hand up quickly! "Catapolt me!"
Josh jumps up "i say we use the catapolt! it would be fun!"
Drayken quickly assembles a makeshift catapolt from a base and an ice cream scoop he found lying around. "This just might
work..."
Immanuel nods his head quickly. "I think it will!"
Drayken hands Immanuel one end of the rope. "Here, tie this tightly around your waist."
Atropos shrugs at Drayken, "I'll give it a try!" The elf searches around til she finds a small bow and flashes a faint smile
at Drayken, "Maybe this will work." Carefully, she ties the rope around the arrow and aims up aimlessly. The arrow flies out
of the goodie bag, landing only inches from Mesthak's hand. Strange words can be heard coming from the dwarf.
Immanuel quickly ties the rope around his waist. 'Now what?"
Drayken sets the ice cream scoop so the scoop part is down on the ground. "Hop in. Anyone who wants to take Atro's route is
welcome. Ours will be up and running in just a moment."
Immanuel hears the curses coming from Mesthak and has second thoughts. "I don't know if I want to be up there alone with him!"
Atropos frowns as she watches the arrow come flying back in the goodie bag, landing in the turtles back.
Drayken grabs ahold of the rope just a few feet from where it's tied at Immanuel's waist. "I'll be right behind ya."
Immanuel nods his head. "Then let's go!"
Atropos lost Vhid in the goodie bag...
Immanuel giggles at Atropos.
Drayken motions for all to gather around at the handle end of the scoop. "On the count of three, everyone force the handle
down with everthing you've got. We'll meet ya on the outside. One, two...three!"
Josh forces the handle down
Atropos grins at Immanuel as she pushes down on the end of the ice cream scoop, "Happy trails!"
Drayken pushes down and is rewarded with the sight of Immy flying through the air. But he watches only for a few seconds before
giving a yelp as he arm is almost ripped from its socet, the rope in his hand carrying him right behind Immy.
Immanuel lets off a string of curses as the catapolt sends him out of the bag! The problem is, it sent him too far! A loud
crack is heard as Immanuel slams head first into the roof. HIs oversized head gets stuck! Leaving the vampire hanging from
the cielling. "Help!"
Josh watches them fly out of the bag
Immanuel lands in a heap outside the tavern. "Well, that worked!"
Drayken lands with a grunt just outside the tavern. He looks around, his eyes lighting up. "We're free!!!!"
Atropos hopes the two come back to help her and Josh out of the goodie bag soon.
Immanuel grins at Drayken, before returning to the tavern to rescue the others!
Drayken dusts himself off and motions for Immanuel to follow. "Let's see if the others made it."
Immanuel shouted to Atropos, "Can you hear me? I\'ll drop the rope down now!"
Josh walk around for a second " i dont think there coming back for us...."
Atropos starts looking through the goodie bag again, "Damnit! I need to go shopping again...."
Immanuel drops the rope down into the bag of goodies. "Grab it! I'll pull you up!"
Josh looks at the large opening of the bag
Drayken throws a quick glance to Alexander before offering a lame shrug. "We...uhhh...fell in."
Atropos eyes Josh, "They'd better!"
Josh grabs the rope
Atropos hears someone shouting something but completely misunderstands, "Why would I drop down further?"
Josh looks at Atropos "grab the rope"
Atropos shrugs and moves further down in the goodie bag, stumbling across the fat ferret, "Vhid! I thought I'd never find
you again."
Immanuel shouted to Atropos, "Grab the rope!"
Josh looks confused...
Drayken spies his pink bunny slippers still sitting by the bag and quickly puts them on before helping Immanuel with the rope.
Atropos leaps for the rope, keeping a firm hold on Vhid.
Immanuel grins at Drayken. "Right, you and me pull on the count of three! One...two...three!" Immanuel hopes Drayken helps,
because he wastes no time in puling the rope as hard as he can. Though for a long while, all that comes up is more rope! "You
better have the right bloody rope you two!"
Drayken yanks with all his vampiric might, falling into sync with Immanuel, wondering how much rope they have to go through
before the other two appear.
Atropos pokes her head out of the top of the goodie bag. Just as quickly, the elf squeals and leaps at the two, "That place
is scary! I dun wanna go back in there."
Josh jumps out of the bag
Immanuel nods his head very quickly to Atropos, as he stops pulling on the rope. "You ever trick me into going in there again,
I'll eat you!"
Josh said, "that was fun we should do it again sometime..."
Drayken is bowled once more to the ground, this time by Atropos. Giving a sigh of apathy, he just lays there, entwining his
fingers over his chest and staring at the ceiling.
Atropos giggle at Josh, "Sure! Maybe I'll go shopping again today and there'll be more stuff in it." She looks over at Immanuel,
"I didn't trick you. There are eyeballs in there!" Feeling extremely tired, she simply lays her head on Drayken's shoulder.
Immanuel said to Atropos, "You...you...you did trick me! I'm gonna eat you next time! And eat your bag! *coughs up a small
piece of the dress he tried to eat* Erm, maybe not."
Josh sits down wondering what is further in the bag...
Drayken yawns sleepily. "Fraid I must be departing all. Twas interesting indeed."
Atropos grins at Immanuel, "You're always wanting someone to entertain you. I believe you got your wish today!"
Drayken said, "Until next time. Au revoir."
Josh said to Drayken, "Good bye"
Atropos said to Drayken, "Take care!"
Immanuel giggles. "I s'pose you are right! But for now, I must go! I need my special sleep if I am to stay in shape. Nighty
night, O Lord of the Bag!"
Immanuel nods to Josh. "Night! It was an interesting experiance."
Atropos gets back up close to the bag, pondering on actually looking in the very bottom of it for a gift and decides to just
pull something out randomly. Once she pulls her hand out, she tosses the item to Josh, "Here...you can have this."
Immanuel slowly starts to fade away. As he does, you suddenly feel...well...special!
Atropos giggles at Immanuel, "Rest well!"
Immanuel giggles at Atropos before he completely vanishes!
Atropos really thinks she should watch what she pulls out of the goodie bag for people.
