Hello everyone.
I am a mother pheasant plucker.
I pluck mother pheasants.
I am the best mother pheasant plucker that ever plucked a mother pheasant.
I am not a pheasant plucker.
I'm a pheasant plucker's son, but I'll be plucking pheasants when the pheasant plucker's
gone.
This is the energy we are bringing to today's session.
Irabrin Dawnbreak!
I am joined with my three absolutely hullacious, sullacious, delicious co-hosts.
Host people.
And they will be introducing themselves by order of their alphabetical origin.
Albert, I work in a library alphabetizing, so...
I'm so...
Yes, but I'm usually last.
I know, but they said alphabetical.
They're pushing you up.
This is the push-up.
Lift up.
We're going by first name instead of last name.
I gotcha.
Yes!
Got it.
All right.
Hi guys.
I'm Albert.
You know me as...
Albert.
I play gold.
I'm here.
That's me.
He almost revealed his secret identity.
Secret user handle.
That's me.
I'm called Little Boy.
Little farm boy who is here.
Anyway, that's me.
Yep.
Then I'm E. So hello!
I'm Albert!
I'm playing Lucia who is starting to learn how to read, which is perfect for joining
a drama club.
Joining a drama to learn to read.
You know the readers' theaters we do.
Yeah!
It's like between the lions.
Between the lions would have slapped for Lucia.
Hello.
My name is Jenny, but you know me as also Jenny.
Our metaphiles is...
I'm Valora Avilea and I'm going on a date tonight.
What's up?
Date after like after a session?
Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
Oh yeah!
Happy belated Valentine's Day!
Speaking of date, we have dated this episode.
We have just come across the throngs, the absolute bombs of Valentine's Day.
It was I am sure a very fulfilling holiday for most and now we're here now.
Alright, so I guess the next part is I guess we have to do the uh whatever the recap.
One of you has to do it.
Oh shit.
Oh my god a lot happened that last recap.
A lot happened.
Alright, what do we got here?
Worm tongues.
Oh Jesus.
That's a lot.
Previously on Sfiyasha, I mean previously on...
Previously on...
I remember in Dom Fray...
Kagome!
Inautric!
Kagome!
We've had a deep discussion, we've had a deep just nostalgic conversation right before
the stream started.
We were just gushing about all our old anime stuff.
It's, they were simpler times everyone.
You guys might know me from Deviantart.
You guys might remember me from Deviantart.
I spoke in third person so you remember me.
Oh god.
That's not good.
Not good.
You might know me from my Inuyasha fanfiction where they were all reincarnated into the
modern day and going to middle school.
You might know me as the owner and actual...
You might know me as the owner and actual role player of the Steve Uchiha...
Steve Uchiha!
Saskis cousin!
Was Kagome already going to middle school?
She was in high school.
I was in high school I think.
Was she high school?
She was like 15?
I can never tell with anime.
She was in high school, I think she was a freshman in high school.
Yeah.
Okay, okay.
You can never tell with anime.
It's like this character could be anywhere from 12 to like 30.
There's like no audience.
I'm with you on this if you don't know what they're talking about.
I'm here.
I'm here too.
But not a day over 30.
You go a day over 30 and you are...
John Bob really reminds me of Shippo from Inuyasha.
Oh, John Bob, yeah.
Yeah.
That's right, Shippo.
Anyways, last time the lady who tried to kidnap Lucia named Evanya, we found out that she
is from Inera and her little group is from Inera and that not everyone in the underground
is actually with them, but she also found out that Lucia is cursed.
She has a word that says death in Draconic on her back and that she will die if she leaves
the kingdom.
And so they couldn't do anything about it, but they wanted to like see if Lucia's memories
had been tampered with and at that point the people who run the underground were like,
nah, not good.
Why did you bring the master at arms daughter down here who's been kidnapping our people?
And I was like, my dad's doing what?
Human trafficking.
And so we talked about that and he explained to me that my dad knew about them, but then
seemed to have them disappearing from the shadow guard, but he didn't explain what the
shadow guard was.
We were like disappearing in the tunnels.
And so he agreed not to erase our memories because I was like, I'll investigate it.
And we wrote really high persuasion checks, all of us.
And so he was like, okay, fine.
You can remember.
Meet Dean, our classmate, upperclassman, and he helped lead us out of there.
And then we flew back arguing about whether Lucia was going to blow up or not.
And Lucia saw a dog clawing at Tamsin's door to nobody's surprise, but kind of, it was
Tamsin as a dog.
And I don't remember what they talked about if I'm being totally honest, because the thing
that stuck out to me was that she was a dog.
I can't remember.
I think it was mostly about her smelling pheromones.
Oh yeah, she can smell if you're horny.
She can smell sudden shifts in people's feelings and their inner emotions.
That's what it was.
And then she was like, I smell like cedar wood.
I have it in my notes.
Yes.
And then she said that Garvey had brought a letter for Lucia, but then Garvey remembered
that Lucia can't read.
So now he's gone.
And then what else did they talk about?
Oh, I think Lucy was just like, please don't kill any dogs.
And she's like, I didn't kill the dog.
I just transformed into a dog.
But look at my tongue that's made of worms.
She also said that spectral worms looked into Cole's memories.
Yes, yes.
And she has a thing for Cole.
She's like, he's like, he's really well-trained, is what she said.
Really well-trained.
She also doesn't know if her mom and sister are alive.
Yeah, that's true, too.
That was where my notes ended, because after that I had my scene with Saga.
And then I stopped taking notes.
Yeah, Valora fucking made a move as she should.
Saga was being all flirty and teasy.
And Valora said, I'm going to kiss you, bitch.
And they kissed.
And then Cole became a concubine.
OK.
Oh my god, that's right.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
This is why I didn't want anyone to know what the word concubine means.
This is why.
And Rymal and Cole are concubines for Tula.
Tula's concubines.
I've been offered the position.
Yes.
Thank you.
And maybe Tula doesn't know what she's talking about.
And they got prepared for their first day of class, deciding which house they want to
go shadow.
I just ship the throuple.
I think they're an adorable throuple.
Olive House.
Best house.
But yeah, three people.
I probably missed some big things.
I think that pretty much is.
I'm supposed to be.
Yeah.
All right.
I also agree.
Olive House is the best house.
Three for three, 100% hit ratio.
It's perfect.
Three out of three people.
Are you saying that the Silver Lions doesn't have 100% hit ratio?
Are you saying that one of the worms in Tamsin is not cool or based?
Is that what you're trying to tell me?
Maybe.
Well, that being said, you guys do have Robin, which does kind of.
That's true.
Robin, the true hero of the story.
Yeah.
You know, I don't want to brag, but like I did do good things.
Are you playing music?
Where's this?
Yeah.
Okay.
I think my phone started playing and I was like, what's happening?
Because it was only coming out of this year.
You guys do have Robin, so I guess that kind of like bumps you guys up because he's.
He's really like the best member of the house.
Right.
I mean, debatable.
I think.
First of all, he took that shot.
All right.
Yeah, it's true.
The deciding shot.
He let those guys.
He has the highest.
He has the highest kill count on anyone in Dawnbreak.
I have made the most money from killing people.
Out of everyone here.
So even off screen, I guess he has the highest.
It's true.
I did.
Kill some mushrooms.
That's right.
And ate it and ate it.
They grow back, so it's fine.
I ate it too.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I killed mushrooms too.
So I got fucking you did.
You got picked up and tossed fucking thrown.
Oh, yeah.
If you killed one of the mushrooms, you could go ahead and write on sheet like Mark Murderer.
Like you're going to jail.
Like, I mean, it was self-defense.
Mark Murderer.
Okay.
Velour works out because she's a noble.
She can do whatever technically those mushrooms were working to kidnap a young woman.
So it was self-defense.
I distinctly remember.
What's her face?
Avanya said, oh, yeah, he was working with me.
Yeah.
And that she tricked him.
And then she did say, yeah, I'm kidnapping her.
She did.
She said it was like, yeah, basically, we were like, wait, so you're going to kidnap
her.
And she was like, yes.
Yeah.
What's up?
What?
Where I'm from, it's fine.
We can have all day every day.
It's so bad in America.
It's so bad.
Avanya is like, wait, and that's like, you're concerned about the kidnapping part.
Like that's the problem.
We got a level.
Like the kidnapping is the problem.
Like there's a cultural difference here.
At least we know she won't kidnap you until you won't blow up.
So I guess as long as you have that on you, as long as you have that on you, then she
can't kidnap you.
So we just never take that off.
Yeah.
I'm like Gale.
Does the Gale shirt make you more likely to blow up or less likely?
Probably more.
Do you have a hankering for boots?
For magical boots?
Stop eating my shoes.
Am I in the path to godhood potentially?
They're all excellent questions.
Okay.
Let me give you one second.
I love the music choices we're going through.
This is the sad song.
No, I love this song.
Are we doing something sad?
No.
Or solemn?
Damn.
Hold on.
Give me one second.
We're getting breakfast and going to drama club.
Yeah, this is breakfast.
One second.
It's the breakfast song.
So peaceful.
No, it's not peaceful.
What do you mean it's pretty?
No, I'm not trying to be peaceful right now.
Timmy I feel like you should like name these things based on their vibes.
Or put them in little playlists based on their vibes.
I do have playlists.
I have like a 50 playlist, but this is my Iribrid music and I failed to do this.
You got to subcategory them.
Yeah I do.
I like the rubber band sound effect in the back one.
It sounds like it's an Avatar the Last Airbender.
Yes, that's what it is.
Yep, brain goes why do I recognize them?
Okay.
Because they do the Avatar the Last Airbender has the bwong bwong bwong sounds too.
Are you already?
Yeah.
For this.
Eight night.
For this titty RPG.
Titty?
So many titties.
Titty.
Does anyone have titty?
Lucia is definitely flat chested.
I am saying that right here right now.
I don't think so, but Laura.
I feel like Reinwald has a nice set of honkers on him.
Oh definitely Reinwald definitely has a good pair.
Good pair.
Yeah.
Let him loose.
Breaking all the characters by size.
Oh what's his face.
It's suddenly in our anime face again.
What's uh it makes sense.
The golden moose leader.
The dwarf.
Oh Brim.
The dwarf.
Brim definitely has big tits.
Yeah he's got big tits.
Oh yeah definitely.
Oh yeah.
Todd probably does.
He's probably compensating in other ways.
I don't think Quincy has big tits but they are still there.
I feel like he's got defined.
Tamsin could give herself whatever she wanted.
That's true too.
Most of the worms.
Oh no!
Oh that's true one piece of the body needs to be all worms.
I wake down in the field and I have to make sure the worms are the gozai.
No!
Why?
Tamsin!
Those worms are really happy.
I also imagine Tula's got a nice set.
I feel like Tula is our stereotypical anime girl.
Yeah Tula and Reinwald definitely have a nice set and then Cole at least is not fully flat.
He's got a little bit but not a lot.
In my 8 years of playing in this world there has never been an Iridite discussion about
which characters have racks.
But it's important.
Did we not in Blackguards?
I mean Zach.
No we didn't.
Just Zach but not the others.
Marshmallow.
No no don't ponder it!
I know we talked about Zach's chest a lot.
John Claw definitely has a good pair of tits.
Yeah.
Oh you can swap your credit card in there.
Right Dragmire?
Dragmire!
Get up!
Dragmire!
Dragmire says if he didn't he does now.
Dragmire knows.
Dragmire knows what the people want.
Dragmire knows.
Yes.
So I guess now we're ready to play?
Yeah we're ready.
And on that note.
I will make sure from now on whatever I describe in NPC I will make sure to mention what they're
about.
Give us like a yeah bus size.
Yeah and don't discriminate you know.
No matter.
Gotcha.
There is an illusion.
Reinwald walks into the room.
He is abundant.
He is bodacious.
Reinwald just like knocks over a fucking lamp on accident because he turned around too fast.
A lamp?
Oh it seems I've set this place on fire with my honking pillows.
What's my honkers?
He's the nurse from Nyoneko Sugar Girls.
No!
No or have you guys seen the video game Nike?
Nike?
There's like a game called Nike where these girls like there's no way.
There's just no way.
It's not very often.
When they're firing up it's a shooter game and when they're firing it off both their
boobs and their butt are.
It's not very often that we're going off the fucking rails and it's not my fault.
It's not my fault.
It's not my fault guys.
It's not your fault.
I'm scared.
I'm really scared.
Nobody's even been here yet for this which is part of what I think makes it even better.
I think it's part of it.
Hold on I have to post to our discord the Nike stuff with the girls.
It's wild.
The what?
The girls and their boobs and their butt.
When they fire a gun.
You don't have to post that at all.
These are water balloons.
That was the most I've ever spit.
I don't know what the anime was called but an anime I watched the first episode of when
I was really young was like every time they would like punch each other the clothing would
come off perfectly from where they punched and no matter like they just get all these
holes in their clothing just from all these different punches.
Does everyone want to name it and not themselves?
They're like their boobs are water balloons and they move they have they move of their
own accord.
Yeah that's like that's not a boob she just put balloons in there.
They're just water balloons that move.
And also they move.
Repeat that.
Like everyone physics.
To the viewers at home I'm sorry to ruin your day but boobs don't move in counterclockwise
movements.
I broke Tim.
And Albert ran away.
So now it's just Judy and I.
Yeah.
Here I'll delete it.
Cause last thing I used JT to start screaming.
Know what it is JT's not here too.
Our mod is not here today.
That's part of it.
Yeah he would he would be like guys.
He would ring us in but no.
No.
Don't make me come in there.
JT you're gonna you're gonna listen back to the the VOD and miss you miss you cry miss
you man.
JT see this is what happens JT when you don't stay with us.
He's doing something responsible right now he's being a designated driver which is such
a JT being a good being a good brother.
Typical J.
Being a designated driver.
Typical JT.
Typical mod behavior.
Speaking of the other people.
JT I don't know who he played but are you familiar with the tuna the greater tuna.
Plays by chance.
Greater tuna plays.
They're like comedies originally by like with like two guys playing all the characters.
It's like tuna Texas is a town in Texas small town in Texas and they're like everyone in
there's like super racist super problematic.
It's a comedy it's making fun of these people and that was one of the only shows they got
JT to act in.
He's a good actor that little JT.
Oh yeah.
Speaking of actors.
Where's Albert?
Where the fuck is Albert?
We have to go we have to go to the drama club.
I'm sitting here listening both my ears are talking about boobs and I'm just waiting for
Albert.
I'm just waiting.
I need him for the start.
I need him.
Albert come back.
We will not stop talking about boobs until Albert comes back.
Oh my gosh.
Albert come back.
He's here.
Welcome back.
Oh my god.
We're ready.
What did I miss?
You saved him we were talking about boobs.
No more boobs.
Oh okay.
No more boobs.
No more boobs?
Speaking of balloon shaped things I'm rooting for that kid who's stuck in the air balloon.
He's gotta come down one day.
Okay now.
Now we are going to start off with.
I have half of mine to say titular even though none of you guys are titular.
None of you guys are the titular characters.
None of me.
My name is Ak.
My given name is Dawn Break.
My middle name is Ira.
And I'm Brynn.
And I'm the colon in between the.
Okay we're gonna play.
We're gonna play the game.
Ready.
Oh yeah we're gonna play.
We're gonna play.
Okay.
So Ryan Wall walks in.
Boobs out.
Gives someone a black eye.
Nose bleed.
Oh my god not the nose bleed.
He shows up as x-ray.
He's not doing so hot because of the way he has to.
His back is in so much pain.
Okay.
Cool.
Yeah.
Fuck me.
This is so hard to get into.
I can't believe this.
Okay.
We're in a silly goofy mood.
Series faces on everyone.
Now.
Cool.
Relying on your sense of direction that you've obtained from Orientation Day.
You're given instructions by a Sir Krat.
A knight who is temporarily holding a sort of like instructor position over you at the
moment.
Has given you a task and has sent you out onto Academy grounds.
Now your task.
My voice broke.
Your task is to.
I broke.
Your task.
My god my mind's all frazzled.
Your task is to.
Well first of all.
Go get yourself.
Go get yourself a meal.
Get yourself situated with the Academy.
And get.
Get deeply involved and familiar with the process of the school day.
And you are supposed to shadow.
You are supposed to pick at the end of the day one of the five houses that you wish to
shadow.
Now walking with Reinwald and Tua, your two other Olive House mates.
You are greeted with many curious sights.
Friendly gestures of friendly greetings from individuals that the question asks to you
multiple times.
Where are you from?
And of course many platitudes.
You make your way.
You make your way into the mess hall.
And it's not too difficult.
It's not too difficult of a sight.
It's not too difficult to spot Lucia.
Alongside Velora waiting in the line.
Well shoo hoo.
Shoo what?
Shoo hoo.
That is a greeting from where I am from.
Oh shoo hoo.
Shoo hoo.
Hmm.
A lot of them come up to meet you as the.
As the processions of this busy town hall.
Not town hall.
Mess hall.
You know the five of you huddled in this little in this little bubble amongst the amongst
the mess hall.
Did you guys sleep well?
Yeah.
Yes.
I needed it.
It was a busy day yesterday.
Yeah it was a long tour and trip.
You were traveling all day too.
I bet you guys were exhausted after that.
Yeah and then all those mushrooms that I went out to find.
You know.
I didn't know that such large mushrooms grew nearby here.
Yeah but they're all gone now.
They were absolutely delicious.
Yeah we have extra.
I kind of like will kind of put the little tupperware that Tula gave me.
With extra.
Victor.
It's a Victor.
Hello.
Hello Victor.
The chat.
Hi Victor.
Missy don't go in the attic.
Tula goes from where I am from rejecting a meal is often seen as a grave misgriefence.
Oh I mean well we just got our food though you know.
You should give it to someone else.
I mean and I'm not much of a mushroom person.
No.
That's scary.
Lucia hides behind Valora.
I just think these wonderful mushrooms would be wasted on me because I don't particularly
like mushrooms personally.
I think maybe you should at least have a butt.
It's okay.
I am in your place now.
I am in your culture.
Please say no to me all you like.
Well that's I don't mean to be rude.
No no you're completely fine.
Valora Avonlea correct.
Yes.
It is good to meet you.
So you just put you on like a hit list.
You are a registered there is a revident coming after you right now.
It's literally like Tula will remember that pops up in the left hand corner of the screen.
Reinwald who does not notice attention just goes well it seems we are off to the races
in regards to our intended purpose here.
We were meant to come here to learn and exchange information about our cultures and it seems
like we are already doing that very well.
Yeah yeah who are you guys following today right you don't have to pick a class to follow.
Well I was thinking that perhaps since you since you lot are the the closest individuals
I know and you are well the very heart of this kingdom it seems that perhaps it would
be most pertinent for me to shadow your class.
That would be fantastic.
Yeah it sounds good to me.
Plus we're the best house so.
Got a lot of really nice people have you and you met and you guys met most of them at
the tour right.
Yes.
A lot of them.
Excellent few yes.
I'm looking forward to meeting everyone else and Tula goes you are really the best house.
Well we did win the mock battle out of all the houses so I think right now we're number
one.
In the mock battle do you insult other people.
Oh we didn't do that but like we just all the houses fought to kind of see where they're
at like right before you got here.
We made an alliance with the Crimson Griffins and the Blue Wolves and we ended up winning
in the end.
It was like a fake fight.
Oh a fake fight.
I see.
Well I believe today I will also shadow the best house.
Great.
Sounds good.
Anyone know whose dog this is.
Tamsin.
Dog turns to the camera.
It's me Tamsin.
I don't know why but it's in my lap.
Tamsin what are you doing here.
The line continues.
Breakfast.
A hearty breakfast is had.
It's a very different fare of breakfast than you're usually attuned to.
It's less hearty than what you have back at home where you have to really square up on
calories in order to get working with old Bessie and everything on the farm.
The mushrooms were like a steak right.
It's like they just ate a whole steak.
Yeah that was pretty, that was a lot.
Also anybody who took a bite of the mushrooms get five temporary hit points.
Not like I ate any.
I'm not gonna eat the mushroom people's head.
Tula goes are you sure you don't want any?
I'm just saying you know I picked them all for you guys.
You know.
That is so kind of you.
Maybe I should take some to save for later then.
She smiles.
I kind of eye Tula to see if she's okay with this.
Like okay.
Tula seems pleased at that statement.
Takes one, packs it away.
And breakfast is had.
The day shifts as this small group of individuals began to head towards Academy as the opening
bell rings.
As you lot are led into class, Valora and Lucia you head to your typical, your typical
seatings and the olive house are placed at the front.
After a short brief of speaking with the professor, Professor Grantham, your seats are assigned.
Now unfortunately the olive house students have to be broken up a little bit because
the seating is rather sporadic.
You're getting sat with Tamsin.
Cole is going to be sat with Tamsin.
Exactly.
Cole, as you are gestured to your seat and led over, you see you have an empty seat next
to a familiar eye patch wearing girl.
Tamsin.
She, she looks, she looks, she looks at you and she just smiles.
Is your energetic wave.
Hi, good to see you again.
Well, hey, howdy.
Nice to see you again.
Are you going to be my neighbor?
My seat friend?
I guess so.
Uh, ransom, right?
Tamsin, Tamsin Vondoo?
Tamsin, oh, you're going to, oh, don't worry.
You're going to learn it one day.
Tamsin Vondoo.
All right.
Roo, as in like you'll Roo the day.
Keep going sweetie.
Keep going.
Tamsin.
So Lucy, as you're sitting like towards the end of one of the, of your current row, there
has been an empty chair next to you.
You see Lucius leads Reinwald to it.
And just Reinwald meets you with a smile.
He just goes, seem to be in good company.
And then sit on down.
He just drinks a chair.
I do want when I sit down, by the way, I want to, I want to make sure I don't accidentally
touch her again, because something really weird happened last time.
We like got any physical contact.
So when I go to sit down, I want to like casually, like not noticeably when I pull my chair out,
pull it out on an angle.
So when I put it back in with me in it, it's a little bit further away.
Make a, quickly make a performance or a deception check for me.
Deception.
Just, just like, just enough so I don't accidentally like bump into her shoulder or anything.
Natural 20 for 26.
So I don't accidentally bump into her shoulder?
I don't want to like accidentally touch hands while we're writing or anything like that.
You know, I want to, I want to just, you know, I pulled the chair out and then I pull it
back in over here.
When I sit down.
I was at the style of how you sit from where you're from.
I like it.
It's really cool.
Yeah.
I like, I try and like spread out a little bit.
I'll try to like man spread a little bit, just, you know, while she's looking.
And then, and then I, I readjust when I'm, when she turns away.
I smell decay.
Is that, have you been eating mushrooms lately?
Yeah.
We had some for breakfast.
Oh wow.
That's huh.
That's my, yeah.
Good sense of smell.
Decay.
That wouldn't be the word that I would use.
Oh, kind of like a meaty scent.
Oh, the magic inside of me.
I'm a traveler sorcerer.
I don't know what that means, but congratulations.
Oh, my, my, I get my magic from is sort of, uh, they call, they call it the great tunneler.
It's this large, it's this large, like kind of like a snake or people think it's a worm
that kind of goes through the, uh, that kind of like tunnels through the ethereal planes
and create like pathways for people to like connect with each other through the, um, through
all the different planes.
I think that's why I smell decay because like a field.
Yeah.
You like it's a worm in a field.
It's really complicated, but you, you got it.
Yeah.
Like, imagine if like you wrote a big worm and it took you to different places.
Well, how big we talking?
Usually they're kind of small, but it's like this, but like a lot bigger as a worm that's
this big.
I mean, it's like this, but like boom, boom.
I mean, that's a boom.
Yeah.
That's okay.
I don't know if, okay.
I don't know if you, you know what that means because we're like a son of explosion because
it's expanding wide.
Okay.
One brain cell.
It's a worm, like the size of a horse then in a field.
Oh, like the size of like a million bajillion horses.
That's a big number.
All right.
Yeah.
Everyone in class listening to this conversation.
No, I'm a bit little talking, but and you get your powers from a worm.
Yes.
Um, from, and then, uh, and then the, uh, professor grant them just goes, all right
everyone.
Let's go ahead and perform roll call.
Now Valora, if you will do the honors.
You got a pretty big fish with that worm.
Yes.
And she just stands up.
Um, roll call, uh, roll call happens.
Uh, as that's happening, Lucius, uh, comes around to each of the olive house members.
Lucius comes up to you, uh, Cole.
Um, you see this, uh, objectively handsome man with the kind of like an average sized
rack walk up to you.
And kind of like, um, this is important information.
All right.
So Lucius, this was demanded of me.
Um, average size rack.
The right, the right, that, that's good.
That's too much space.
Not the rack, not the rack, the text, the text.
We want to keep the notes.
Okay.
Um, you see the, uh, they walk with, they walk with a walking game, but they seem to
walk with, with still with some confidence, some confidence.
You go probably, you can probably take note that they are blind.
Um, but nonetheless, they make their way up to you and give you a small tap on the shoulder
as a Valora is calling out names.
It just goes, after everything is after the Laura is calling everyone up.
Um, I'm going to give you the signal and just, we're just going to have you go up there with
your friends and you're all just going to introduce yourself.
All right.
Okay.
Yeah.
So why don't you have me do that before I sat down?
Fantastic.
Fantastic question.
I wish I could answer you.
Cole's just tired.
All right.
He's been here less than 24 hours.
Okay.
Sounds good.
It takes a step back.
You want some of this by the way, uh, push forward the Tupperware with the, some, oh,
that's supposed to smell like worms, right?
I don't think so.
It's supposed to.
I'm kidding.
Thank you.
I'm like look awkwardly over and do a look.
Okay.
I was looking over nods.
They take some to the will pull out a gun.
If I believe it, if her threshold is, if her patience is crossed, um, velour, uh, cause
of the last person, uh, a 100% attendance rate.
Even Todd's here.
And 99% attendance rate.
I'm like, Todd Cadwall.
Nevermind.
But you do see a new face amongst the people here amongst the first of the first year through
the cat wall.
As you, oh, go ahead.
No.
As you call out her name, uh, and she, and she says here, um, you can tell that there
is a sudden curiosity shift in the room.
Like, I think Lucia definitely looks over to see.
Lu, uh, Lu, uh, Lucia, you look over to her.
Um, and I'm going to put in my, my two week notice for describing people's racks and I'm
going to stop right now.
You can, you can absolutely stop.
I'm allowing you to stop.
I will be writing down the disc, the size every time you say it.
Albert Albert can keep track.
Albert can keep track.
I'll DM you.
Yeah.
If I'm not given, given one, I'm making it up.
So that's a good idea.
That's a good idea.
Free Tim of this burden.
So, um, you look over to see through cat wall.
You're who you use comparing her to the, you have stepped near prop.
You have said they're probably the most out of everyone.
You said you have said near Todd, the closest out of everyone here where Todd had a large
imposing figure, a swarthy, almost downcasted look and dark circles under his eyes and almost,
uh, and almost like.
Tortured sort of like lost dog look, uh, through the, uh, through the has a sort of like wild
old, uh, look about her, the same, the same hair color, longer hair with disparate braids
and in different places, there is a poise and a confidence in her, um, uh, that you
see, uh, she feels very different.
And I will say almost, um, uh, for, uh, for you, when the moment you look at her and she
says here and then the, and then there's the hush falls over the room, curiosity, uh, almost
like at the same time, her, you caught that maybe her eyes trail over to you.
Like and the, what do you make accidental eye contact?
And then she shies away first.
Lucy was going to wave and then went, okay, nevermind.
Does Lucy wave?
She I think she went before she turned, she went to like, raise her hand up to wave, um,
that small gesture already.
She like catches it.
She goes up waves.
Oh cool.
Unless it goes, okay, we're fine.
Okay.
I wave back.
Oh, wait, wait, this Cole thing.
Is it one of those moments where you think someone's waving to someone else and then
Lucy feels bad and she waves to Cole.
Uh, we're all just waving at each other.
She feels bad.
She wants to make sure Tula is being waved at too.
Tula just goes, shoo hoo.
Looks like, looks like Cole.
And Tamsin who is it, who are people's friends kind of like, oh, let me join in.
And then she starts waving.
Oh yes.
And then I wave, make sure Tamsin gets a wave too.
So Valora, you just see a bunch of people waving.
Oh here.
Um, the attendant is called.
And uh, Lucius kind of like nudges you, uh, nudges you real quick and just goes, the crew
has left the nest.
And then backs away without explaining anything.
Little smile on the face.
And with that Lambert goes, and as some of you have noticed, we have a few additional
people amongst our ranks today.
If these individuals can please step up to the front of the room.
I get up quickly to get away from Tamsin.
Um, Tamsin just goes, you got this.
She almost pats you in the back.
Her love language is physical touch.
I was going to say, I was going to say poor Tamsin.
She goes to like, like pet, pet me and I go, oh look, my shoe is untied.
Oh no!
Tamsin!
Her favorite thing is the natural warmth of warm-blooded people.
Um, all I know is she wants to eat me.
That's true.
Unfortunately Cole only knows that he doesn't know what that means.
She wants to eat me out and also, uh, she gave me a headache when she touched me.
Rad's worms.
Love?
Questioned word?
Match made in heaven?
Questioned words?
Um, you make your way towards the front, Cole.
Uh, present, uh, the three of you stood in present, uh, in front of the, uh, in front
of the classroom.
Ryan wall takes, Ryan wall takes the middle position.
Emma?
Sorry, the group chat.
We were passing notes that we are not sharing with the class anyway.
What?
Sorry, our DMs.
Shut the fuck up, dude.
I'm so sorry, I'm focusing.
These are words she has said.
Ryan, Ryanwald, Ryanwald, of course Stans, uh, Stans proudly, he has a noble cadence
to him.
Uh, um, also with a sort of like different rigidity to her.
Cole, how do you present yourself to the class?
Uh, well, I probably start a little bit.
I don't think he has bad posture, but he's probably not like straight up and then he
like looks either way and goes, Oh,
good.
Uh, professor Grantham just goes, we are being joined by the entirety of the, of the incoming
olive house members.
Your performance, your performance is so far says, and everything that you represent has
drawn the says has drawn the interest of a great says of a great select few who have
says who have heralded from other regions in order to come and witness I were a brin.
Now please introduce yourselves.
I am Ryanwald, a star.
I am from the kingdom of Katvarim.
Um, I just, I am just, I am the son.
I am the son of an Earl.
And I am quite says I'm quite intrigued by everything I've heard for so far and the people
I have met this.
And I am quite excited to see what this place has to offer.
I am Tula says I am Tula, Evangel.
I am from says a very, very far away.
Um, sort of aristocracy.
I forgot the name of it because my brain right now does not fucking work.
Where's an island nation.
Where's Tula from?
Holy shit.
I can't remember.
This is bad.
I might have it.
She's from an island nation.
She's Barbie and the island princess.
That's what I think of every time Tula comes on.
I have it one second.
Uh, Tula.
This is awful.
She is from, she is from Eva Enva Talis.
The content of Enva Talis, a group called.
I am from the Lemonia.
Oh, right.
Oh yeah.
The Lemonia place.
You might have noticed that my, uh, common is not, uh, strong, but if you can talk, um,
if you can talk in any other, it says any other language, perhaps, perhaps I could convince
you that I am a much more, um, I'm a, it says I am a much more interesting person.
Uh, and then the eyes turn to you, Cole.
Uh, howdy.
I'm Cole.
Uh, I'm from over in East Rune.
Uh, I come, I come from a little town called Candabreeze.
And uh, I just feel lucky to be here.
Honestly, it's kind of cool.
Um, gosh, I ain't never seen so, uh, so many big buildings in my life.
So uh, nice to meet y'all.
And uh, I know that's me.
Um, a light applause, uh, drags out of everyone.
But Reinwald steps up and just goes, don't let, don't let Cole's humble nature fool you.
He led us into, he led us into a fiery foray on our way here.
Says, a brave soul if I've ever met one, unless it's Tula.
And Robin just goes, and me?
Yeah, Robin, K to our survival.
Natalie was also there.
Yes.
And Robin was there.
Um, uh, and with that more applause, more, um, as the introductions conclude, um, you
are gestured back to your seats.
Uh, but before you go, uh, Reinwald kind of like whispers to you, Cole just goes, are
you, are you comfortable in your current seating?
Uh, I mean, I overheard her yesterday.
She kind of said some things that kind of made me a little uncomfortable.
So I don't know.
Say no more.
Professor, may I please, um, request, uh, an exchange of seats between me and Cole here?
Yes.
He just goes, uh, yeah, I don't see a problem.
And goes, goes ahead.
And and he, uh, Reinwald comes up to, he just, I'm sitting right there next to Lucy.
Um, and if anybody does anything on tour or makes you uncomfortable anyway, please make
sure to just do not hesitate to come speak to me.
Thanks Reinwald.
I mean, I think she's fine.
She just, she's, I feel like I just overheard some that maybe I heard out of context or
something.
I don't know.
It's quite fine.
I don't just act on your feelings.
Not that I'll be, not that I'll be there to protect you of anything.
This man with my drink.
Thanks.
Thanks Reinwald.
Of course.
Um, as, as Lucy, she says quietly, thanks.
I like sitting and like, we're like, you're like up against me.
Oh, and next to Valora, who's also there.
I think Brown ball really wanted to sit next to, uh, Tamsin.
He didn't get to talk to her that much yesterday.
So I think he just wanted to kind of meet new people.
You know what I mean?
Hampton is a very nice person.
It seems intensive.
This Reinwald, it's good.
It's good to meet you.
Tended holds out her handshake and he just goes, Oh, of course shakes.
And then he just jolts.
Oh, wow.
You have had the substance of strong handshake.
Is she like staring at me while talking to him?
No, no.
Okay.
She has accepted the new circumstances and is making the most of it.
Worry for her.
Uh, as, uh, Lambert, uh, goes in this fit says, in this case, Lucius, can you please
attend?
Lucius, can you please attend to the olive us ones to get them, to get them caught up?
Today we are still going through a little bit of a, um, introductory phase.
Uh, we are going to get set up with Ronan Sharp, who is going to be our, who is going
to be your director of conditioning.
Now, now Lucia here is going to hand out a sheet to everyone.
Please record your name and select your difficulty.
Yes, sir.
She just stands up.
Yes.
And, you know, I think this is the first time she's been called on and hurries to efficiently
hand out the sheet.
Um, everyone, go ahead.
Uh, what do you mean by difficulty?
I suppose you'll see it on the sheet itself.
All right.
Uh, so I'm giving everyone a handout.
So this is, this is going to, this is going to affect your physical conditioning for the
future.
No, boy.
Is it in rule 20?
Yes, it's in rule 20.
I just gave Ronan Sharp.
Oh, Ronan Sharp, Sharp, Sharp training regimen newcomer.
Prepare to die.
Should we, should we read, should we read this out loud?
Yeah, please.
So we have, uh, Lucia is not reading this out loud cause she can't read.
Um, level one.
Newcomer ideal for newcomers who haven't gone through physical military conditioning.
Level two forged from stone for those who have mastered the fundamentals.
Level three forged from fire advanced.
Only the bravest of the brave can attend.
Prepare to die.
And you've noticed like prepare to die.
Like, like people saying that out loud.
Um, Lucius and Lambert are not answering questions in regards to that.
We just, we just check off which one we want to do.
You write your name that and you check which difficulty you want to, you want.
I mean, I have to try the hardest because I mean, I got to try the hardest I can.
So Marcellus there.
Marcellus looks at it and just goes done.
Just level three.
Good choice.
She doesn't know what he circled.
She's just firming him.
Um, I read it to Lucia too.
So she knows what it says.
Um, so are you going to do level one then?
Probably right.
That makes sense.
But are we, are we all working together?
Like is this, is this like a thing we're going to be together for or are these like separate
classes?
We are going to be a part of the same class, but everyone's going to be performing their
different parts of the regiment that are fit to them because you're not, I've been
re-acknowledged that every one of you has a different part at a different stage of your
physical peak.
Okay.
What are you doing, Valor?
I'm going to do number three.
Okay.
I mean, I've trained for a long time and I think I got to push myself the hardest I
can.
I haven't trained at all and I have a lot to learn, but that doesn't mean that I'm
not going to rise up the ranks.
Exactly.
Kind of like look over.
Can I see what Reinwald's like checking?
I see Reinwald kind of like, what was it, over and tentatively just kind of like underlines
three.
All right.
This is a house about Valor, but I mean, do what feels right to you.
I mean, you're doing one to see you?
She nods.
Yeah.
I don't, I don't, I don't know any of this.
I don't know what it means by physical military conditioning, but I mean, I got trained before
I got sent here, so I probably am.
You know what?
We're here to learn, right?
I'm just going to circle number three.
We're going to try it.
Number three.
We're going to try it.
And I will say because one of the neighboring people that you guys are next to is Quincy,
they have other life too.
Well, look at you.
Yeah.
Look at you.
I'm doing my job.
My job.
Are there any other symptoms?
No, since he dodges, she tries to like push him back into it.
Okay, no, no, if you're assisting her that I'm because of the help action, Lucia, make
us make a improvised weapon attack with advantage.
What would that be?
The improvised weapon strength or dex?
The 20 plus strength.
You 20 plus strength.
I'll go ahead and say add your proficiency.
So advantage, advantage with proficiency.
So plus two.
Eight.
Dodges almost with like, like superhuman as you bring your hands in to like push him.
He can like reaches back, catches your hand as he just dodges.
And he kind of like pulls you in as he can like, he can like pulls you behind him a little
bit, just kind of like throw you a bit off guard.
So you're almost yanked off your seat.
Oh, okay.
Geez.
I just felt like she deserved to hit you a little bit.
Efficient teamwork.
I'm just going to be really great at level one.
If she's going and I think Lucy is starting to realize that not many people are circling
level one.
I lean over to Valora.
Is it just me or Lucy and Quincy?
Are they like, are they like kissing or something?
Like they're just there.
There's some energy there.
You know what I mean?
Oh, I don't know.
I just think that's just how Lucy is.
So she's like kissing everyone then?
No, no, no, no.
She's just really she's a whore.
Also, she's in between us, isn't she?
Yeah.
No, no, aren't I?
I thought I was handing out the.
I think you're handing out the.
I'm doing it.
Okay, okay, okay.
Okay, that was.
Lucia is a player.
Let that go.
There's some kind of energy there.
That's all.
I was just wondering.
I mean, I don't know.
I, if I'm being totally honest.
Okay, don't tell her I said this.
I don't know.
I, if I'm being totally honest, okay, don't tell her I said this.
I thought she was kind of liking Tamsin.
Because she talks about Tamsin a lot.
No.
Oh no.
I think she told me.
She told me that Tamsin likes me.
What?
I don't know.
I think she likes.
I'm not gonna.
I'm not gonna lie.
I think she likes me.
That's okay.
Because that's, I thought, I actually also thought when you gave her this look.
You gave her this look after we dropped you off at your place after the tour.
I thought that maybe you liked Tamsin.
I mean, I don't really know her.
I just know that I think she's, I think she's a little too into me.
That's all.
That's what I saw in me.
I think the more of the lesson here is that everyone needs to control themselves a little
bit.
She was talking about like doing weird things to me.
That's all.
I overheard her saying.
Okay.
Well, do you like anyone, Quincy?
I won't tell.
I like the absence of noise.
Uh huh.
Yep.
He's.
But also I'll never tell.
He just keeps things in.
I knew it.
Yep.
Quincy like secrets.
She says to.
Cool.
I like secrets.
All right.
Interesting.
If you tell me some secrets right now, I might open up.
But might though.
I don't believe you.
Isn't that an interesting gamble?
No, because I think you're just going to take the secrets and run.
Mr. Secretive.
Run from you.
I know you've already chased me down to the end of the earth every single day.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, you wouldn't outrun me.
So I guess I'd win.
Yeah.
Or maybe Marcellus would reach me first.
You know, that's not true.
I'm not.
I'm not confirming that.
I'll be playing.
Anyways.
I won't say that quietly.
I wonder why.
I.
He likes to.
He also likes to get to the end of the earth.
I don't know.
He likes to get into people's heads.
He likes to gossip about other people.
I mean.
Yeah, and I will.
I'm not.
Nothing wrong with getting into people's heads sometimes, you know, it just means you're
smart, right?
I don't know.
I mean, Quincy's smart, I think.
I think you seem smart, Quincy.
frequent mistake.
I'm a fool.
He tried to goad me into eating a whole cake our first day after arriving at Iriven.
Whole cake?
Yeah, like an entire cake.
How big we talking?
You are very cold.
It was like Pegasus shaped and it was this big.
But it wasn't like actual Pegasus size.
That's a lot.
Like a Pegasus.
That's a lot of cake.
Wait, how do you get it?
How do you make a cake that's Pegasus shaped?
Wait a second.
I think they cut it.
Like they cut a hole in it for like under the legs.
Like did it support itself?
Oh, it wasn't like standing up.
It was like laying down.
Oh, OK.
That makes sense.
All right.
Eventually comes and starts collecting a wrap and collecting what she eats.
Did someone say cake?
Why did I get any cake?
Oh, yeah, you are.
Let's see it.
Bed.
Yeah, I'm already talking about you.
All good things.
Oh, well, she's my house leader.
Yeah.
Thumbs up.
It was all good things, Lucia.
See, this is what I mean by getting into people's heads.
I said it doesn't work on Lucia because Lucia is so sweet and nice and kind.
Lucia, you see, there is nothing happening behind her head, which is why he doesn't get
in her head.
Over her head.
She has the highest intelligence.
The wheel is spinning, but the hamster is dead.
I get it.
So you two.
There's kind of like an energy between you two.
That's all I'm just.
Who to you two?
Oh, you and Valora.
Yeah.
And I'm not kissing her.
Oh, my God.
Valora and I kissing.
Come on.
She's my house leader.
You're saying that really loud.
She's my house leader.
We really have it.
Wait, wait, wait.
Another story.
Leans in from the back.
Are you two kissing?
No, no, because she's she has a date with someone else.
Oh, wow.
And Lambert goes, Lucia, please print the sheets.
Yes, sir.
Yes.
Yes, yes, yes.
Here you go.
I'm just trying to get a beat on what's going on.
I mean, we all just got to school.
I don't know how many people are kissing yet.
Apparently, you're apparently you're kissing, right?
I mean, you have a date today or something, right?
I mean, I do.
I have a date this weekend.
Who's it with?
I saw a good on Darius.
She's the leader of the Black Bores.
Oh, the one with the fan club.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I forgot.
I told you about that.
Yeah.
A lot of people have fan clubs here.
I don't think I get a thing.
I mean, Quincy just not regarding you just just still writing something down.
He just he just goes, I'm the says I'm the founder of the Valor Avella fan club.
If you want to join.
I hear this.
Yes.
All right.
I see us coming back to her.
It goes, why don't you tell me?
And she sits.
I got to be honest.
I got to be honest, all these connections are getting weird here.
All right.
So he's a fan of her and she's kissing her and she's OK.
All right.
I think I'm figuring it out.
There's someone special for you back home.
Call is that why you're asking?
What do you mean?
Are you kissing someone?
No, I'm not.
I'm not kissing someone.
Lucius is next to you guys.
I didn't think that was done.
She goes, hi, JT.
Hello, JT.
Thank you for 27 months in a row.
She awkwardly goes back to her seat after.
Also out of curiosity, Tim, who else circled level one?
Were there any other level one people?
Oh, Tamsin, definitely.
OK, there's probably some nobles who are in here, not because they're good, but because
they're nobles who are going to circle like a higher level than level one, but they get
dropped down.
Yeah, I guarantee there.
There is a few people you could see.
It's mostly and you're going to laugh at this.
It is mostly among the mages.
I mean, but it checks out, though.
Is Tamsin level one?
Tamsin is level one.
The nod.
Emma knows.
So who else?
Oh, I don't think any other named character here.
Tula has straight up circled three.
And you see that she has she has she has written underneath level three level four question
mark.
She's going to be insane.
I bet she's fucking nuts.
OK, noted.
You have a comment when you see that she passes the sheet up and sees it as level three.
When she passed it back to you.
Oh, I think you're supposed to circle circle three, right?
What's this one below it?
Did you write next to it?
Oh, I have received intense physical conditioning of where I am from.
I have fought many times with bare hands in our island gladiator arena.
Wow.
Don't you think level three would be I think it says prepare to die, right?
Like, yes.
Right.
I've been to Tensum.
I'm always ready to die.
I'll tell the teacher.
Really uncomfortable.
As you walk away, as you walk away, she just goes, what can be harder than the giant armored
crabs?
Do I see what through circled through circled three?
She's got to be a three.
What about Robin?
Robin, who is full of himself, was like, yeah, you know what?
I can push myself three.
Yeah, I think as a because the sea is taking it from people, right?
She's going around and they're giving as she's taking she's collecting the papers, right?
Yes.
I think as she takes through paper, she goes, by the way, I'm the retainer.
I'm Lucy.
Hi, it's nice to meet you.
Yeah, nice.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, too.
Through cat wall.
You've met my brother, probably.
She says kind of quietly because she doesn't want like she doesn't want through to feel
like she's like, no, like low on the gossip, right?
Like if this give this girl a break, she'll stay quieter like I hope your brother's doing
okay.
And you don't have to worry about you don't have to worry about him.
Well, I can't do that.
Yeah, if you really want me to.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Hey, can I talk to you?
I talked to you after class today.
Absolutely.
That's what a retainer's job is for.
Just short nothing else.
You know, whatever you need to come to the theater with us.
You can rope her into the theater.
Wait, wait, hold on.
Is drama club after class?
No, it is the weekend.
Okay.
The same day as the date.
Okay.
She'll go, yeah, we can absolutely talk after class, whatever you need.
All right.
I promise I won't bother you too much.
Okay, bother me as much as you want.
Trust me.
I bother everyone and I love being bothered and we'll level three.
Look at you go as she like puts it into her stack.
Did everyone in this class choose three?
Circle fucking level three.
As you say, ooh, level three.
She just kind of, she kind of like, you kind of like, you kind of like glaze her up a little
bit.
She just kind of like smiles a little bit at your like flattery.
She goes, holds up like holds up a pencil and just a slight move of her thumb.
It could just breaks.
Oh, wow.
Wow.
You're really strong.
Wow.
Thanks.
Lucia is like, I'm going to die.
Need me to do that to anyone.
Let me know.
I will for sure.
You'll be the first person I call.
I'll be there.
Sounds good.
She takes her stack and with Tula's crab comment with the fucking snapping pencil, I think
it settles into the sea of that.
Like, I think I'm going to die here.
I think I think I'm going to die here.
She's not going to blow up.
She's just going to die here.
He's going to be murdered during class.
As you go ahead and get the papers assembled, put the stack up and then the conversation
with everyone else happened and then you and then Lambert asked for the paper.
As you sit back with your new found sort of like nervous energy, there's a little flick
against your shoulder.
As Quincy's there, he just goes real quick, I've written a letter to you.
Last night.
Did write me a letter.
Yes.
And I was reminded of a fact, so I didn't commit to sending a letter.
Yes.
I wasn't going to say that.
Just read it to me.
What do you have to tell me?
It's very basically, especially now that I just noticed that there is a sort of anxiety
in you.
Oh.
I just genuinely want you to know that I'm here for you as a friend.
Just call my name and I'll be there.
I think she's like, I think she's genuinely touched by this because he's being very genuine,
you know?
And I think it all kind of hits her, her blowing up, her being kidnapped, you know, not really
knowing who she is, what she is, seeing so many of her classmates like dead in visions,
right?
I think that all hits at once and tears well up in her eyes.
She tries to hold them back, but there are definitely like tears in her eyes.
With us with again, a flat regard, just kind of like pulls, it just something pulls out
a handkerchief, just puts it puts it in front of you.
And just tries to like be subtle about it as not to draw attention to you.
She takes the napkin and you know, she's trying to hide her face.
She said, so you wanted to write a letter to me about how you were checking in on me?
Good friends do that, I think.
He turns and just nods and goes.
Never had a friend like that.
Well, it hurts to learn, aren't you?
Yes I am.
And I still want that letter because I want to practice learning how to read it.
You finished wiping the tears.
Okay, well, Rue has that letter, gestures of Tamsin.
She said that she's no she said that you took it back.
I will say when he when he mentions Tamsin, Tamsin just kind of like perks up even though
she's a little far away.
She goes, oh, something's in my name.
Just like you guys have been talking quietly.
Tamsin just notices.
She mouths to Tamsin, did you take my letter?
What?
Garvey's letter.
Do you have it?
Oh no, I gave it back.
She turns to Garvey, you have it, give me my letter.
Give me my letter!
Am I between them two?
Yeah, you are.
She she she starts to shake him and goes, give me my letter!
Guys, guys, guys, guys.
Valorah, tell him to give him my letter.
I should give her the letter.
Noted.
No, no, give me the no, give it to me.
Okay, it's a class.
Lambert goes, all right, everyone, let's go ahead and wind down.
She's going to start going through his bag.
Lucia.
Just like gentle swats of your hand.
Before you before you see me and then if you continue, you see that he's he kind of like
pulls back his coat a little bit.
He flashes a dagger at his hip.
He pulls a knife at me.
Swore school.
Right!
She goes back to listening, realizing that once again, she's going to die here.
Okay.
Let's see, and Lucia.
I'm right next to you listening to that whole thing.
I didn't mean for that song to kind of sound romantic.
I was just kind of like, what if I were doing songs?
Immediately heard the ship to romantic music and I was thinking it.
I didn't mean to.
And they were good friends.
Sounds like they're getting married music.
I was going to say, I was going to say, be support unlocked.
So just to just to quicken things along.
You guys are going to be you guys going to go through and be familiarized with the process
of your conditioning, which is a which is a once a once a week day where you are completely
dedicated to physical training outside the classroom, military drills, this and that.
And it seems this week, it seems this week and for the rest of a lysis of the eighth
month, your fitness instructor, his name is Ronan Sharp, whom you says whom you have been
told comes from comes from Argos, which is a kingdom, which is a kingdom from south,
a southern kingdom here in the same continent.
I said that very confusingly.
As you get there, you see a sorry, as you get there, I need to back up a little bit.
You are all provided says you are all provided with with a with a physical training outfit,
which is a which is a much more lighter.
You can feel the air much more better on your skin with these with these outfits.
It's a little bit cold and up here in the mountains, but yeah, deal with it.
And the hours are spent getting everything gathered and having having Lambert Grantham
explain to you what all says what all of this entails, what what you would usually what
you usually do, how he notes your progress and that you can always pick to go to a lower
level if you so choose.
And Lucius just goes, I feel like there's going to be a lot of that today.
Which one of you overconfident people chose level three?
Marcellus is not raise his hand because he is not overconfident.
I'm not raising my hand either.
I chose it.
I figured why not when in when in where are we a knower a knower when in the knower at
Lucius goes, I'm going to enjoy today.
Oh, my God.
Um, the Lord chose it, too.
Yeah, but I'm not overconfident.
Marcello, I'm not overconfident.
Marcello Marcellus goes totally.
Yes.
Appropriately confident, hopefully.
I mean, like, I don't.
That's what you think.
Understood.
I just know I can handle whatever I put my mind to.
That's all.
Well, I mean, we can't go up, but we can go down.
So I figure why not try it on the hardest.
Right.
Yeah.
See what it's about.
Perfect mindset, people.
Perfect mindset.
See a blinks in level one.
The two of them.
The two of them look at each other, the professor and the teachers.
And you see they share like a genuine kind of like he like a little like like a little
smile even though even though Lucius is like even though Lucius is blind, they share genuine
moment of like like a little slight connection.
It just feels it.
Um, a lot of after the hours, a lot of you are I'm expect you are all ready to go on
a little a little trial run today because Ronan Sharp is here at the Academy and is
waiting for you all in a training fields.
Um, everyone eventually gets up only the first years as as Lambert says but stays behind
with the second and third years and you are all brought down towards the training field.
Here you see a you see you can tell that he is very firm and well built underneath his
like fitness tunic.
Um, a sort of like an older kind of graying haired human man with like strong chisel like
strong chisel features.
Um, this is the epitome of a fitness instructor.
You see him and you're like, oh, that makes sense that yeah, he's doing this.
Um, he has kind of like easy smile on him.
He looks and like something that may be funny to you, Valora, that he just kind of looks
like like if Marcellus was a grandpa.
Um, oh, so he's kind of hot and also way more ripped than Marcellus.
So he's hot.
Marcellus, he kind of looks like you.
It's like I'm looking in a mirror that makes me older and much buffer.
Yes.
Much buffer.
Um, one of one of his one of his pecs is like the size of my head.
I wouldn't say that, but no, I think you're right.
Yeah, Val.
Um, let, uh, as you want to do about Lucius, this goes, all right, everybody level one
and two, you're with me level three.
You're going to be with, uh, you're going to be with instructor chop.
Oh, cool.
We get the new press.
Um, say level two and level three, level one, level two go with, uh, Lucius level three
goes with perfect.
It sounds like my people immediately goes away from the giant brick house of a man.
Um, as you get, uh, as you come towards the, uh, towards Trump, he greets you with like
us.
He gets you his face suddenly lights up.
He has a big smile.
Um, and he just goes, hello everyone.
Uh, you are all, um, you were all new flesh students to, uh, I remember, right?
All right.
Introductions are in place.
I'm Ronan Sharp.
Uh, I am typically here for like the first two months of each year just to get you guys
sort of acquainted with, um, sort of like the physical, like the physical training regimen
and you're in front of me because, um, because you, because you have chosen to take on the
highest level in which I can offer now out of now, there are many among you.
There are many among you have already used your life, trained your life, uh, to be at
the top of the, your physical peak at this moment.
And, uh, this is designed to push you even further.
And there are some of you here who have maybe have felt confident in your abilities and
we will test that too.
Now we are going to be spending, let's see level one and level two, they're going to
be spending about an hour, but we will be spending two.
All right.
Now everybody's it says everybody is, uh, everybody is hydrated.
Right.
There are, I have established a little hydration stations along the way.
I should station.
I love him.
All right.
Uh, everybody good.
Okay.
Now's the time.
Get yourself warmed up and stretched.
Go ahead and follow, follow me.
Um, and doing stretches.
So I'll just go ahead and say what happens with you, Lucia.
It is, it is, you know, genuine physical exertion.
You are getting, you're getting a workout, but it's gentle, kind of like low impact,
a little bit, a little bit of running.
I can't do this.
The rest of us are doing the fitness gram pacer test.
Um, we'll get to, we'll get to you in a bit.
Um, we're going to get to the date tonight.
And then he, um, so that's what you do, Lucia.
You are just having, it's hard.
It's tiring.
Um, it's okay to stick my hand.
They're both dying.
You take Tamsin, you take Tamsin's hand.
Um, she is not sweating at all.
Tamsin, you're not dying like I am.
Oh, sorry.
Yes, yes, yes.
Pretend, pretend.
Yes, yes, yes.
And he's sweating waterfalls.
That's why I have to teach her how to person.
And then, uh, as you get all warmed up, Ronan just goes, all right, everyone ready?
We are going to start by going on a will, uh, a will paste jog down this through Mount
Ancenderoth, which you guys know is a pretty long distance away.
Um, we're going to be making way up the mountain.
There's going to be a gentle, it's just going to be a gentle, just like a warm up sort of
jog and we'll be like, and we'll make a circle back.
Um, there'll be little exercises along the way.
Um, all right, let's go ahead and start.
Just begin going that way.
I'll be jogging alongside you.
As you begin, as you begin, as you begin the jog, um, there comes a point where like, um,
you're going through like, uh, Ronan is teaching like little cadences, keep everyone in line.
Um, and at some point you get to the first hydrate sensation.
Uh, and you see people, uh, are already like, like, okay, I am a little dehydrated and going
up to it.
Ronan comes up and fucking kicks it down.
He fucking knocks it up.
He fucking knocks it over.
It just goes, what the fuck are you doing?
Keep going.
Spread, spread, spread.
He's just spitting.
Oh, so he's a football coach.
All of a sudden the afternoon turns dire.
Make a constitution saving throw for me.
Oh boy.
Okay.
I love that I chose level one for myself.
Uh, this is a con save, right?
Okay.
Um, I'm going to use intrepid because I don't want to fail in the first one.
Uh, Nat 20.
There we go.
I'm good at cardio.
I was going to say your whole thing is traveling.
This whole thing is movement.
I'm going to use an inspiration.
Okay.
21 for you.
I'm just letting you know level three is a short path to increasing strength and back.
So you're, you're a bit faster, but you're genuinely exhausting.
You're not even to the foot of the mountain yet.
As a rotor disc, what are you doing?
You worthless fucking asshole.
What's wrong with you?
Go, go, go.
Oh my God.
Sounds like the, sounds like the neighbor back when it used to get drunk all the time.
Oh no.
What did you say?
Hey, what did you say?
We'll start spreading towards you.
He's really fast.
I had double, double, double speed dash.
Um, uh, Ryan, Ryan Walters, like, it's just like, it's really have to just scream profanities
at us.
And you see that he picks that up predator predator hearing from Ronin.
He runs towards Ryan what Ryan one doesn't even see it.
He rips his shirt.
Ronin rips his shirt off and just goes, grabs grabs by the waist.
And I used to let him get a little, to give him a little boost to get away.
Okay, you see that he's about to grab Ryan Walters, and he was like, what in the world?
Run, run, run.
And he just goes, and you see Ronin goes, good, good, good.
And then he just goes, do we see this?
Yeah.
No, no, you don't.
No, we're on the mountains now.
That's right.
No one can hear our screams.
And he just, and he just goes, but you are slow.
Grabs Marcellus, Marcellus goes, wait, wait, wait, wait.
And then Marcellus gets suplexed into the tunnel.
No, Marcellus.
Get up, get up and get running.
Marcellus, no.
He starts, Marcellus gets up and starts running and just goes, why did I only drill your head
into the ground?
It's going to happen a lot to you in war.
Fucking asshole.
And then Valor, I'm going to say that you're safely at the front, but you're fast, but
this is also like, this is like genuine physical exertion.
As you're kind of leading the group and you're heading into the, heading on the path, make
a dexterity saving throw.
Oh my God.
Not the metal.
I can add more to it if I need to.
You don't need to.
Okay.
You, as you kind of like step forward, all of a sudden you feel like there's this huge
like presence kind of like coming at you from the right.
You step back and a huge Glock trap, pendulum, smash, like swings.
It would have taken you off the mountain, mountain path if you got hit by that.
Guys, watch out.
Keep a clear head.
He jumped kicks a student.
Boom.
Okay.
I'm keeping an eye out for traps as we're running.
Make a perception check for both of you.
Okay.
I'm so glad Lucia isn't there.
Does my way finding help?
13.
19.
Yeah.
I would say, I would say it helps for you.
15.
Okay.
So you, you begin to see, you begin to see as you, as you, I would say with your perception,
you manage to like dodge, like there are dark traps here.
You see, you see some of the students get hit by it and they're just like, oh, put to
sleep.
You guys dodge fire as spread is spreading as in like, as you get to like isolated parts
of the forest.
What the ninja warrior is this?
And you keep seeing, you keep seeing Ronan as you keep looking behind you.
Ronan keeps doing some kind of new offensive wrestling move towards like students as he's
like running along.
Ryan wall just cause this can't be, this is a bit, this is a bit too intense.
It's like that.
It said prepare to die.
Yeah.
She has the right spirit.
I didn't think he meant literally, but I mean, he closed lens a girl.
I'm so glad I could dash as a bonus action.
Grab somebody by the, got somebody in a headlock starts running.
Make both of you make a con saving throw again.
I'll use a point of inspiration.
I'm going to use a point of inspiration too.
Okay.
So it's, I would still use the higher.
Yes.
Okay.
I'm going to use saving face to add three to this.
That just succeed.
21 instead of a 10 for me.
I will say, I will say, however, Tula is making really good distance.
Like she's like, she's fucking yes.
I've been lagging behind and she just goes through this too.
And of course through the good is good.
You see a log jump about to hit her and she just punders it.
The entire lock shatters and she just goes shit on my face.
She's running.
She, she's like, when runs beside you of a Lord, she goes, yes, by the way we met yesterday.
I'm through it.
Yeah.
I remember.
Why are you talking?
She should not do this, but she goes, well, it's not so hard that I can't talk.
I'm going to, I'm going to lock in and try and like break off a little bit so that way
I can just get ahead.
Uh, well she deals with him.
She's here for cover.
You know, she's fast.
I just have to not be the slowest.
Starts running towards you, punches one, slaps another one, slaps another student and absolutely
like slow motion.
And just, and just looks over to the student, just knocked over and just goes, that was
your leader's fault.
Um, I'm going to use a bonus action to activate swift stance so I can move a little bit faster
instead of my perceptive stance.
Okay.
So you're genuinely taking the front lead because you are, I think you are the fastest
with your extra everything.
I can move 70 feet and around, no, no, that's not including a normal dash.
So I can move 105 around.
I forgot I have spirited travel.
I think it technically doesn't apply even though it all sounds like things that should
apply because it has like desperate dash and marathon runner and things.
But I avoid fatigue from forced marches and stuff.
Uh, oh you've, okay.
Okay.
I have the miss, but this is, this is intense.
Like physical training.
I'm about to throw up because this is really intense on me.
It's really intense.
I am, I'm getting exercise.
You're about to throw up?
I'm getting exercise from this.
Well, listen, Tim, if you need a break, just come back to the level one kids.
Never, never.
Ronan who has lost clothing, who has considerably less clothes at the start of this, um, began
sprinting towards you Valor, but you're still like as fast.
But if you, you think if you slow down at all, he will, there is some like pun, there
is some like extremely physical punishment incoming.
I'm not going to slow down.
I'm fast.
This is fuck boy.
Ryan wall who's running looks behind.
It's cause we need, he's focused on Alita.
We need, we need to protect her.
Are you sure?
I feel like we should take this chance to just go.
It just goes, she's off.
She's our ally.
We can't leave.
We're behind.
All right.
You know, that's fair.
That's fair.
Can I use a prairie wind to speed her up a little bit?
Just cause I'll attempt to slow him down.
My God.
All right.
Careful.
Just, and just, and just goes just on your left, have a layer as Reinwald turns around
and rushes past you and, and Sharp just goes, finally someone coming head on towards me.
And then Ryan wall attempts to tackle him and you see that it does not move him an inch.
Reinwald with his like high strength modifier.
Can I teleport Sharp into like a trap?
Yeah.
Yeah, I'll make a Christmas save.
Okay.
Sharp is a, Sharp is a pallet, is a herald.
Oh shoot.
Oh, he's a herald.
Yeah.
25.
Yeah, that succeeds probably.
Poultry, poultry.
Rides down, grabs Reinwald, lifts him up, power bomb, power bombs him into the cold ground.
I offer a prayer to him as I run.
Thoughts and prayers.
And then I'm taking every chance I get to get a little further ahead so that way I can
slow down a little bit to, to make these, these con saves a little easier.
And the final thing you see before you leave, you see Robin trying to like go around.
Robin's been beaten up a few times already.
Robin tries to go, tries to go around.
Okay.
It goes like, don't want to be that guy.
Goes around Reinwald.
Hey Robin.
Hey.
I wait.
All of a sudden he, he becomes a blur as he falls off the side of the mountain, as he
is completely launched.
Can I teleport him to the front?
You can.
And then you get teleported.
What is this guy's problem?
Robin you're at the front.
Good job.
Um, and.
Laying the charge as usual.
You see Char, you see Charpers goes.
Robin at least in the front.
I understand my assignment.
Robin's like, don't say anything.
Don't say anything.
Robin, you're so good.
Don't jinx him.
In front of you, there is a rope swinging course.
There's rope swinging courses.
There is a.
You see that there are handlers with Wyverns who are, who don't have a muzzle, who don't
have a muzzle on that are near the course of running.
All of you make.
All of you make acrobatic checks or athletic checks.
Can I use, can I make an animal handling check to try to get an advantage?
So I can do light on your feet to just jump 10 feet straight in the air.
Can I use that to like just.
Oh yeah.
I only got an 11 animal handling.
10 was the DC though.
Oh good.
Nice.
So you go ahead and get advantage on the acrobatics.
Okay.
Oh yeah, in acrobatics I can't roll lower than a 10 anyways.
Let's go.
Which I, I rolled a one and a five.
So I add five more to the top.
12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17.
Oh wait.
And I get expertise on it.
So 19 and I can add more if I need to.
Acrobatics I'm really good at.
So it's a 19 you said?
It's a 19.
Okay.
18 was the DC.
Okay.
Hell yeah.
You leap forward like leaping off.
You Velora specifically knowing your way around, knowing your way around wyverns.
As you kind of make your way around them, like you just see their really intelligent
eyes.
They're not really, they're just like snapped.
Like you have a better knowledge of them so you have a better like, you have better knowledge
of like how to go around them.
I have to say like good boy and draconic and probably just gentle.
One of their like tails kind of like whip back and forth a little bit.
And you see one of the, you see one of the, one of the, one of the chain, one of the handlers
just goes, oh, that's so nice.
Ronan truck runs past and also says in draconic, good boy.
No, no, no.
And he just goes hubby.
He looks to the side towards his, towards his husband, like a, like a half of with like
glasses with the, with the book.
Just going, just going, just going, yes, honey.
This goes teleport me in front of them.
He teleports in front of you, but you all with your 18 managed to like go over him.
He's generally coming, trying to come up and like put you guys square in the chest.
You guys are dodging him.
Robin gets slapped right in the chest.
He gets slammed.
He gets slammed down onto the ground into like the wet mud.
And then the last thing you see before you crop, before you crop, before you make a turn
is Ronan picking, uh, like putting like Robin in a choke hold and just like getting it cinched
in.
And the Rob is like tapping out.
Um, we do this every weekend, right?
Oh my God.
Tuesday.
My God.
This is, it's kind of crazy, but it's kind of fun a little bit.
Stop.
I mean, you kind of, yeah, yeah, actually.
Yeah.
It's a little bit fun.
It's high stakes.
Um, you are, you, you're following the path and you see that there is, you, your body
is screaming for water.
There's a high Jason station.
Poison.
Hmm.
I don't, I'm not poisoned.
I can't stop.
Um, as we're running towards it, can I use, and also wait, we have passed, uh, uh, we
have passed the teacher.
The teacher is no longer like there.
Yeah.
Okay.
Um, as we're running closer to it, can I use sense for secrets to tell if there's something
like hidden in the area as we're like running towards it?
As you're, as you're running, as you're running towards the area, um, you're looking, you're
looking around.
Um, let me see.
You get an expert.
You have a sense for things.
You can spend a minute observing an area.
Okay.
You don't have a minute, but I will go ahead and let you have a investigation check.
Okay.
Just to see if like, if I can tell, like, is the color of the water off?
Is there like a pit trap right underneath of it?
Uh, that sort of stuff.
Okay.
This is going to be investigation.
I have a taste.
I T eight.
Okay.
I can't, I can't, I'm not sure.
Do you want to try?
You want to use sense receipt?
Oh, you can't use sense for secrets.
Okay.
That just tells me if there is something, but not what necessarily what it is.
Okay.
Um, okay.
I can't, I can't tell where we're going too fast.
So who says they want to be at the front and Ryan?
What is like?
I'm a desperate water.
The front four are coal.
The front five are coal, Marcellus, uh, not, not an order of Laura through and Ryan Walt.
The front five.
All right.
Um, oh yeah.
Tula front six.
Okay.
What's his face isn't behind is we can't see us.
Um, I'm going to, can I take a moment?
Uh, to pull out a bag of ball bearings and I want to try and, uh, like take just a quick
second to like scatter them in a place where they maybe won't be like immediately seen.
He's chasing us.
You scatter the ball bearings behind you.
Cause I can use booby trapper to make it harder to spot them.
Okay, go ahead and make a slight hand check for me.
So my slight hand check would be the DC.
Uh, this is the D six 26.
All right.
So almost no one's going to notice that.
Poor Robin.
Is it Robin already done?
Or Robin is still in it.
Yeah, I think he's dead.
Ronan's getting killed.
He's dead.
He's making death saving throws right now.
No, he's not.
I just want to slow down Ronan and if, you know, if it affects the other students, so
be it.
You know, they should have seen it coming.
Yeah.
Uh, so Reinwald was, he's like glass, like really trying to get through the water.
I'm like, don't trust it.
No, come on.
I need it.
No, you don't.
Make a persuasion check.
Okay.
He is not a lower level than me.
Probably.
Okay.
Um, 11.
I, my body is screaming for it.
I'm sorry.
Oh no.
You're stronger will than this.
He's gone.
Let him go.
He runs towards the water.
Let him go.
We keep running.
Let him go.
He's dead.
How cold they all got.
We'll do this together.
Nope.
Gone.
Left them, left them right behind.
When he tried to go back to save someone.
He shouldn't have done that in this situation.
He drinks the water.
Oh, nothing happens.
But as you guys, as you guys run forward, you can see like the little gateway that leads
towards like the bottom.
So that leads towards the emerald plains.
You hear.
Walking towards the front in between the gate is Mr. Sharp.
We get the movie trap.
But all the other students will die.
Can I teleport to the other side?
Yeah.
You teleport to the other side.
I can teleport to two people.
I'm like, who's coming with me?
It's me.
Let's go.
Well, we teleport to the other side.
So, so, call you just all of a sudden, you're just on this other side of this person.
Yep.
And he just goes clever.
But you, the rest of you are not going to get past through.
Everything shoulder checks him.
He is genuinely sent like, like 15 feet in the air off to the side.
And he just goes, just goes piss me off.
You're so strong through.
Thanks.
We're like almost at the finish line.
Yes.
I'm going to use two things of Prairie Wind so I get an extra dash so I can beat Valora
right near the end.
So I can just get a little speed boost right at the end.
So Valora, I would say you see a concert, like a genuine concert effort by call to like
I cast expeditious retreat on myself so I can also get an extra dash.
I said he has an extra extra dash.
I can dash three times.
I can't believe I beat him.
Definitely beat Marcellus.
I'm waiting until we're like right at the end too so I get that extra quick boost right
at the end.
Like when you're playing Mario Kart.
Wait, this is literally been Mario Kart.
Um, Lucia, you're sitting at the end.
You have, you're, you have, you are winding down from exercise.
Oh gosh, I think I pulled everything.
You're sitting with Quincy and, and Tamsin in a circle as you're just enjoying water.
Um, physical exertion was nice.
And you see like a bolt of lightning coming across the field.
Cole, Cole and, um, and Valora.
Wow!
Go Cole, go Valora!
They're taking their training so seriously.
And you see that, uh, Lucia, Lucia says she's just holding up an arm.
Cole crosses.
She, uh, they put their arm down.
Just goes, someone crossed first.
Yay!
Good job Cole!
Oh and in the second place.
Good job though, seriously.
Okay.
No, no, good job.
Valora!
Oh, I thought that was you in first.
Yay Valora!
Good job guys!
Where's, where's the rest of you?
I think they're dead.
What?
Well, through, through, not far.
Through, through the door.
Oh, I'm sorry.
What?
Through, through, not far.
Through, through the door.
She's, she's exhausted.
God!
Good job guys.
I think Lucia will start filling up cups of water and handing them out to the level threes.
Um, you look behind to see Marse, Marcellus with, with Rhyme One's arm wrapped around
him like, like injured, garroting him.
As the two of them are running like he's getting him to the finish line.
So he goes, come on guys, you can do it!
Teamwork!
He's so noble.
Um, and you see, uh, Lucia, you do take notice that the time that everyone takes to get to
the finish line gets a lot wider and wider.
Um, but yeah, Valora, Cole, you passed the finish line.
Absolutely exhausted.
Yeah, I'm gonna lay down.
I'm gonna lay down very hard.
You lay down.
Wow.
Good race guys.
Oh, not really a race.
It was kind of more survival.
What do you mean?
There was like fire traps and poison darts and what?
Robin almost went off the mountain.
Where is Robin?
And then I think he was beaten into unconsciousness.
What do you mean?
As we see it, he was like, we'll see what happens.
We had to keep running.
People need help?
Where are they?
As she's like starting to panic.
I think they're fine.
That'll be fine.
So wait, so who's coming across now, Tim?
Um, Marcellus and Reinhold.
Um, and they are, they are exhausted.
Tula has been running behind them, clapping for them, like cheering them on.
She slowed down considerably.
Is she winded at all?
No.
She goes, Tula really should be in level four.
Yeah.
She's pretty, pretty cool.
I will admit there was many surprises.
Like when, like when our instructor, uh, punched a girl in the face.
That was, yeah, it was, it was, it was pretty brutal.
I haven't seen fights like that since, well, nevermind.
Since what?
Well, a lot of stuff.
More and more people are crossing.
You see some of them like, looking behind, like scared.
Um, most of them are there, but you don't see Robin.
Oh no.
Um.
Is Reinhold conscious?
Reinhold is definitely conscious.
Okay.
So that wasn't poisoned.
It wasn't poisoned.
No.
Okay.
Can Lucia be helping, um, tend to any wounds for the people who cross the finish line?
Like anyone who needs.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Um.
She wanted us to go back to Robin.
And then, and then you see Ronan, uh, Ronan Sharp holding Robin over his shoulder.
And like, kind of like just a gentle like jog with a big smile.
Just goes, well done everyone.
Oh my God.
Says, uh, this one had an unfortunate, uh, a fortunate mishap.
Tripped on some ball bearings alongside the mountain path and just completely, uh, swan dived head first into a rock.
Um, but he'll be fine.
Ball bearings?
Lucia just goes.
I didn't even see those.
Did you put ball bearings on the, and Ronan just goes, nope.
All right.
Anyways.
Now we can begin the second half of our, uh, of our regiment.
Everyone, let's get, now that we're all warmed up, we're just going to stretch.
Warm up.
Warm up, Lucia says.
And everyone else can feel free to join.
We're just going to do some gentle stretches and the rest of it is legit yoga.
That's nice.
Warrior, warrior pose.
Uh, Ronan is all of a sudden a different person.
Oh my God.
Um.
Ronan.
Sorry.
Ronan Sharp sounds like it almost could be a joke name for like Chapel Ron.
Is it Chapel Ron's grandpa?
She's a strong woman for a reason.
My granddaughter's a strong woman.
Let me tell you.
Um, and then, uh, you see Quincy is watching this cause they're all really dirty.
They don't really just fall around.
They don't just really like trip and fall a bunch.
Um.
No, they, someone punched them.
There's fire.
Yeah.
There was all sorts of stuff.
A lot of people fell over and stuff.
Probably deserved it.
Not us, but.
We see you go there.
Pretty good.
Um.
And as you are all led towards the, who the end of this is the people who are level one, level two, they're directed to like go ahead and head back to class.
But you can stay with them.
You can stay with them.
Yeah.
He'll stay with cause I think she's worried about the people who got the fucking shit kicked out of him.
You see, Rob regains consciousness and like Sharp just goes, oh yeah, go ahead.
Come, come, come, come.
Robin who had just woken up is going like, yeah, yeah, I'm gonna,
just joins.
It just it's like a half like half heartedly healing.
Healing word, healing word.
Oh my goodness.
Robin was in the front for a while.
Think that's my I think that's my second win coming in as you you healing win doesn't know that you did it. Oh
She just she's fine. She's just sitting there with her little water cup cross-legged crisscross applesauce just checking in on everyone
Mm-hmm, and then you see rodent walks by Tula
Kind of like Isaac Tula. I will say has been really focused this entire time
She has been like a military cadence and run it just goes
I kind of like does it like a little fake out towards Tula
in Tula
Tula just goes
You don't make my heart race
Ronan just nods and keeps walking
The stretch is over the last 15 minutes is everyone like settling down and
Eventually Ronan just goes alright everyone really good day today
The next days are not going to be I don't think I said we're just gonna do some conditioning see if we can
Anybody regrets the decision everybody wants to anybody wants to go down
But is it really good luck? It's a really good lot. It's really good luck
Anyways, it'd be back to classical
Did we lose anyone or did everyone eventually arrive everyone eventually arrived? Okay?
But I will say that the times between people getting to the finish line has been like really wide
Okay
Level one is always accepting you people I
Need to go back and go pick up those ball bearings at some point
Robb goes what?
Wait, did you put those I was trying to trip the teacher not gonna oh
Oh smart no, I will why are we trying to trip up the teacher?
Because he was punching people and I was trying to give us a little bit of a break
Choked me out
Yeah, he likes suplexed Ronwald
I think at one point he like Joe okay
He jumped into the air kind of grabbed onto a rope swung and kicked a girl like off the path
Yeah
You guys are you trying to get me because I made a comment about being too easy and he never caught up
Yeah, and then he got distracted by Robin
Yeah, I guess he didn't like that Robin was in the frame
He was kind of unfairly black going after Robin I guess cuz he probably he's probably intimidated by Robin cuz you're
You were doing real good level one or level two tears are just me and the level three is right now Quincy stayed around
She turns Quincy goes we're gonna die here
It wasn't that bad it was kind of fun if you think about it it was kind of fun
He puts me in the head five times it's worse take to me he kicked me in the kidney
You
Are you an only child
Yeah
Well, that's why you've never been kicked in the head before
You just get kind of get used to it
I'm an only child, but I've been kicked by a Pegasus. So
Does that count? Sure, why not? I?
Mean you can come hang out with level one or level two. I mean we learned push-ups today going down to level two
I'm going down to level two. I'm going down. I think you could I think you could stick stick through it Robin
It feels like you you know you you know some costs like you already survived the first day
Yeah, he said the rest aren't gonna be nearly as hard someone make a persuasion check
someone
Gotta be me
Robin persuasion, I'm not trained in it I am
I just give you advantage
I'm not 20
I'm not 227
That's our house leader
The fucking guy there was a time where he was choking me and then he and then he was like no
This is boring, and then he got on top of me and punched me
27 times in the chest and I thought my heart stopped
And you took it you're right. You're right. I can't I gotta do this for my future. You did it. Yeah
Yeah, I gotta do this for my future
I gotta do this for my future you're right you're right
It could have been 28 times you're stronger than you know you know
You're right. You're right
You're a survivor Quincy goes Quincy looks at Robin just goes hey, man. I believe in you
That means a lot that means a lot. Okay does it from Quincy. It is a big deal all right next Tuesday
I'm it. I'm in it. I'm in it
Lucy you should ask if you could try try level three just for a day be kind of fun just to try it out
Ryan will goes to know
I can't allow the I can't allow this to happen to happen to anyone else just to try it out like one time
Lucy is great, but she is a beginner and I don't want to like yeah, I guess
Well, maybe maybe after I get my push-ups done, then maybe I can go up to level two
Yeah, I'm sure you'll advance to level two
I'll advance to level two soon enough. Um absolutely I will say everyone's sore Lucia like this is your first like you're
Not a time to similar like your legs are like feeling pretty sore
Um maybe give me a few weeks cuz I think I'm gonna go lie in a bucket of ice
The rude walks up to you goes
You're right. Oh
That's right. We need to talk after I talk to do you I'm gonna go lie in a bucket of ice
And just goes
That's there's up there
Yeah, I can carry you up
Like one hand
Like grab like gets your waist lifts you up very easily very
And just like places you on her shoulder
What this comes?
We're going to come on. We're going to class right?
She says don't cross the border
Quit to go to weird thing to say
Because I would get you back when she crossed the border um
She's sitting. How is this? We like sitting on her shoulder or is she like lay like is she like I imagine
She's like thrown over
There's an undeniable like safety and warmth and being in the arms of someone really strong
This is really kind of you through but I really could have walked um
You're really uncomfortable. I let you down. No no no this is great. So what what do you let's let's chat best time to chat?

Catches you everyone through it's really strong
I her her a on mark. She's very very strong
She has a 26 straight mom
Jesus Christ 26 a on marks people
I think they might be strong
As everyone begins to truck up the stairs and you guys realize oh
This is like the third part because you're walking back up a ton of stairs
And we Romans walking and you see that he is physically blocking like
The the fast way here, okay
You all eventually make it back up and I will say that in your shared exertion with each other
Everyone's tired to some degree like this was not easy. This was not easy. Well except except for Tula
whom let Tula terrifying let my lord, let me check I believe genuinely
Has like a 20 con
That's insane
She's gonna kill us all oh
She might if you touch her hand bad
Yeah, she's got 20 con. Yeah
Jesus girl
Um, I live life baby
And I will say like
Through this shortly after
Class is dismissed as you are become familiar another familiar with another part of your weekly school rituals
I'm for a laugh. I mean, I'm already used to it here at the school, you know
Jesus
You know, Jesus um, that was kind of child's play compared to the first
Couple things
Now before we continue because we're gonna we're gonna have a certain time skipping pretty soon. Does anybody want to talk to anybody?
I need to find out what through needs to say to me. That's my only thing
All right, so we'll start with Lucille first
Let's see how you approach like in your kind of stumbling kind of like soreness
Get outside to see through
just kind of like
We're being swept down with a towel. Her hair is like really messy and she's trying to like fix it top. Yeah
Okay, cool. This is after we've been carried got it. This is after class is dismissed. Oh after class. Got it. Got it. Got it
Okay, so
After class got it got it got it. Mm-hmm
Um, and she's you see she's really busy kind of like fixing her wild hair
Well, what a way to start the day
Hey Yeah, I thought there was a little much when you started just like punching people
and jump kicking
And
Okay, you weren't there you you wouldn't have liked it
It's all good. I'm just glad you guys
Stuck it out and they're seeming like you and some I mean velora and kohl seemed like they liked it
Well, I think the two of them are just a little bit weird
I think we all are
Right well
I just wanted to make a formal
Introduction to you through cat wallader of house cat wallader. Um
You might know my father this and that everything no
Well, that's your brother
Well
I guess I don't I guess I won't try to explain
Like the whole
My whole family's history or anything we can get way past that what matters is that what I'm what I am
What I am going to be to you
So I was told by
I was taught by individuals and like I erupted me and I can't really say I can't really say, you know
I really can't say no to them that
Uh, well, basically I'm gonna be your guardian
My what
Guardian like i'm supposed to watch over you. I'm like i'm supposed to
Protect you anyone anyone tries to step up just tries to step to you tries to hurt you. I
Break him in half
Oh
And then the light bulb goes, oh is that why your brother was
I'm gonna I was gonna say nice, but that's not the right word. Is that why he was civil to me?
Yeah
even that
Even that dunce
The foon can understand that he has responsibilities from time to time
I don't know what exactly you are. I don't
Maybe I don't care. I'm a little curious
but
You were my guardian
I was you were my house you were my housemate. So I was going to protect you anyways
Well, I really appreciate that through um
I kind of
I appreciate that but
I'm not I don't want this to come off as ungrateful or anything, but
I'm just i'm just one of your classmates and I think I don't really want any special treatment
If i'm going to be honest
So i'd rather you
Enjoy yourself
What you want to do here at school? There's so many things and at the end of the day
We're all kind of looking out for each other anyway
I don't feel like you have to pay any special attention to me
All right, I'll abide cool
She holds out a hand towards you
She'll extend a hand back and shake it for all the feats of strength that you saw her do
Her hand is surprisingly very gentle. It is a mindful
Exertion it is the grip of someone who knows that they're strong and is trying not to hurt
That's all right then
Well
You need tips with straight training or anything. Let me know I help
I spot you. I promise promise. I will need them
I promise
I help I spot you. I promise promise. I will need them. That's for sure
Yeah
I noticed
I'm a little bit scrawny just like the leader
Like velour velour is not scrawny. Oh, she's a twig. Oh, she's a twig
Okay, um, wiggy little girl
respectfully
That's our house leader. Uh
I'll help her too
And I don't think velour needs your help through
You got a smirk set that a little bit
She goes a little self-assured too. You're a little self-assured, aren't you?
For my house leader velour avanley. Uh, yeah, i'm pretty confident in her
All right
I'll take your word for it then
And I am her retainer. So it's like kind of
Kind of my job to also believe in her, you know and support her. All right
Do I need nicknames or anything?
You velour? No you
Me? No, just the c is fine
You wouldn't mind
Nickname I you can't I mean if it's easier for you. Yeah, I go easier
like
names just kind of like fall off of my mind like I'm also go off by like
what people think like
I'll figure something out for you
Yeah, go for it. What and i'm sure the others would like a nickname, too
All right, it seems like something col would like he's from the olive house
He's very friendly
Yeah
probably like
I don't know. He threw a bunch of ball bearings behind us and a bunch of people tripped on it
Oh my gosh col did that?
Yeah
little funny
I was there
Wow, I wouldn't thought col would do that
You saw me light a man like a man on fire. Yeah last night. Yes, but but
But throwing ball bearings at your fellow students within the space
is
And uh, she just goes all right well
Under the cloud throughed right by your side or whatever
And
And me and yep, that's and me right right there
Um, you maybe look like a puppy
Nah, not bad i'll try something i'll workshop i'll workshop
Come back to it and you know when your brother comes back, maybe we can all train together
Yeah, maybe
Oh
She noticed
Yeah, you could
Or not
Well, you have a good rest of your day now have a long three years ahead of us
We do we do and rest up. Thanks for the thanks for the lift as they say. Yeah, you got it. I'll keep
Doing that I could probably throw you all over this entire mountain if you really want me to
Um, I appreciate thank you so much. I I can it's okay. I should probably learn to
I'm probably learning it on my own, but I appreciate it through. Thank you
All right
Have a good day
You too walks away
Um
A lot of family issues at this school
You see robin
Walks by throughed and through it just goes
What's up mudhead?
Oh
And robin just goes hey, why don't you
Yeah, it just sees that it's good it just keeps walking
It just keeps walking
All right, then I think lucy oh, sorry
In her head she thinks why was I why am I supposed to be protected by the cad walleters?
That's weird. And then she's gonna put a pit in that and ask velour later
All right
All right, um
So
I am going to start describing a sort of like
A time skip that'll take us from elisis
I believe the third to elisis the eighth
um
Anybody wants to cover anything before we do that?
I'll start covering some things but if you guys
If I don't cover anything you guys want to have a conversation with anyone. Let me know
um
Because this is mostly going to be kept between uh in in your house. We're going to be really busy
with uh
Doing stuff with your schools as you get your academics genuinely started
Uh lucia you are going through your lessons. Uh, it is going at a genuinely like
Uh archibald is putting in the work for you. Um
Um as you're as you ever you're grasping the fundamentals
You've written out the letters now. There has to come a time to understand them
You're really starting to get his uh, I would say his teaching. You're pretty pretty effective
Um
Koal your of course your um
your olive house, uh, your olive house like
Like academics and such are going are going through beyond the first day
It's like oh, okay genuine academics because now your first day was going through the forged by fire trial
um
You get into uh the academics and
um, you have a genuine like
really good support system in both tula and
uh and reinwald
Oh, I remind them the the same day
Uh that we need to make sure to hand in the paper with the names of three professors
Absolutely. Yeah, you guys get that done like yeah, that's just easy mode
Do we do we during the the couple days? Do we meet?
milia carousel
The other olive house student you um
At the at the moment no
Okay, but I'm guessing she because she's in third year. She doesn't stay at the same
You do you do learn that she's currently away, but it's returning to the academy
But she was away at home during over the break. Got it
Will she be staying at the same the same olive house like house?
Or is it a separate housing?
Got it. That's close
And she's she's the only other olive house. There's no second years
Um, there are uh, there are second years and she's not even the only third year
Okay, so there there are some others. Yes, not we're the only first years
But she's the one that they basically told you like this is the one this is the one you need to talk to
Got it. Okay. No, she is the only third year actually
Got it. Okay. Okay. I I I note
Uh, I don't know. I find out when she's gonna show up
So that way I can meet her what she does there is one other second year
But they they are told that uh, you're told that they are on like months break. You're gonna go for a while got it
Got it
Um
Let's see velora anything in mind for anything

Infiltrate the drama club
um
All right. Well first first. Oh first of all
Uh, we'll go ahead and who wants to wake up first around what's everyone thinking? What's everyone going to do?
That's the big thing. I want to ask you like what what's the first thing you're going to do this morning besides breakfast
Like what's your main goal in mind? What's your task?
Uh
I probably woke up early
and
all I know is
lucia said to meet her
In the morning because we're going to to
Um drama club. I still don't really know what I got what I signed up for but uh, i'll just I guess
I'll meet her. Did she say where did you give me a place where to meet you?
Probably like throughout the week
Like it probably did yeah, wherever the drama club meets because do I know where they meet?
Okay. Yeah, you do
Okay, you have to figure that out
I probably get there early
And I started scoping it out I guess
Yeah lucia's objective is to infiltrate the drama club get details on potential insight into the saga dandereus fan club and take it down
from the inside
Mission brief
mission brief
Out of character wasn't the point of going to the drama club just so he'd get disguises so you guys could just follow
And they were not related to me
Oh my god
Damn it
This is out of here. No, and so the lucia lucia's spirit in this so damn it
I said why did I I got that mixed up in my head?
Right, they had to I think we're just here for disguises
Right just to get the sizes so that we could go on the date to make sure that we could trap anyone, right?
If from the saga dandereus fan club, there's no one in the drama club who is part of the saga dandereus fan club
Right as far as you know as you know
All the members, I don't know i'm scoping them out if I see anyone with a velour avanlea t-shirt
Or anything like that, you know
Okay, then correct correct our our mission is to join
drama club to get access to costumes
So that we may wear them to infiltrate the tonight's date to protect just in case. Yep
Um and col would know this
Lucio already knows this and uh garvey would be alerted to this as well
You see lucio comes by
He's he dressed like he has a serious face on
He looks up you you're in front of the uh, the drama the drama society guild house
He looks up at it
And just goes
I never thought I would find myself here
Here for the lengths I would go to to protect my friends
Would draw me to these many draw me to many strange places, but I will brave it
Retainer in arms, do you need help find your mom?
Excuse me

Another halfling man who's who's carrying thread he's carrying like a little like clothes hangers and stuff
Um you guys new here
Yeah, yeah do we have to do that
I'm gonna be honest with you. I I really don't know
Uh with the new lucy, I think it's your turn
Um, i'm sorry
I a regime change
Uh, yeah in the song it talked about an oppressive regime so
So what does that mean?
It and 40 just goes it means that the drama society has
Experienced the coup he says over the utmost serious seriousness
Oh, it's experienced the coup what does that mean?
She leans over to kohl I think it means that someone took over
Oh, I thought that's what happens you sneeze
That's at you
Someone else playing something somewhere
Um, where's jerry just going wild on the keys jerry is playing right now
Also tim i'm so impressed
Chat is dead
Uh
There's a coup what what can you tell me tell us tell us more if you know bad a coup
Gesundat could be thank you. It could be mistaken. It could be mistaken for something that holds
Its chickens, but no this has a sort of like weird like spelling and pronunciation to it
A coup is what happens. Oh, thank you. A coup is what happens is
That sorry that really threw me off, uh, you keep sneezing so that's that okay. He's saying
Someone took over right?
Yes, yes, yes, yes, okay, okay and the drama club
Uh some members left because they don't like these people that took over. Yes
Oh, I think you said I think you were talking about that. Um
Uh follow law rat
That's a name I haven't heard before
Lucy you told me
Right, you said didn't you say the name before isn't there a leader isn't
I'm sorry. Yes
a much more
treacherous
of much more
Deadly
Pink wearing foe
Names
Her name is melody
Melody melody fidelity
She is very serious you see the music stops when he says that
Melanie
Melody like a song like a song melody. Okay. Got it. So melody is taken over
Who did she take over for that people preferred?
Oh well
me
You see before it was a uh
I had a sort of like a huge stint in regards to like getting everything dead go. No, um
Stop and I had a huge stint going
I had a huge stint going and
uh
for these past like
20 or so years and
well
So melody is connected to
a lot of big money
Oh, yeah
She's connected to rod
Odd yeah rod rottdale
Rod rottdale rottdale. Um, okay, they provide a lot of the funding for the school and
And to my detriment melody is actually pretty good at what she does
Oh, okay. So she's good at what she does but
The grammar club members don't like that
How do I put this lightly?
Whenever we are in the same room I can feel my brain cells one by one
soft-combusting
As if they are all rushing towards a cliff in order to chase off sweet release
Kind of like that
Um
Okay, I um, so there's some tension in the drama club, which is why there's not a lot of new members
Uh from what I know people are being sort of
Shooed away being they're being warned and if i'm being completely honest
I don't recommend it
That's not
Lucia kind of like leans forward in her chair a little bit her little auditorium chair, um
Kind of creaks as she does so oh, that's not that's not fair though
If people want to join the drama club, they should be able to without someone scaring them. That's silly
Everyone should have a chance to join the drama club. No, you don't
understand
Lucia it is
It is it is an absolute endeavor because in order to join this club, you have to join two other clubs
In order to even get a chance you see robert one of the says one of the people of the inner circles
He tried to start up sort of a cooking club
and in order
Um, the the cooking club is called the saucy squad and then when that failed
He he made another cooking club called the sizzle society. That one's a little bit better. Um, but it's still bad
Um, and he's he asked if you want to join this club you you are forced to appease and and bow down to these
sort of bigger forces
Okay, so we have to join the cooking club and what other club to join the drama club that's
Zarr oh you have to join the saucy squad and the sizzle society. Yes
Oh both of these cooking clubs to join the drama club. That doesn't make any sense
They i am afraid i'm afraid i have fallen out of favor
Yeah, I am
No longer the authority if I deny anything melody
Says then the funding to the to the to the club can can all be cut
It's too close to home
And I'm afraid I can't do it because I'm not a member of the club
So wait, so if you want to be part of the drama club, you need to be part of three clubs total
Oh, yes, if you join today, then you'll probably automatically
And they all meet they all meet three times like they all meet on the same day. Oh, no, um
The sizzle society and saucy squad meetings also take place during drama society meetings
And they all meet three times like they all meet on the same day. Oh, no
Um, the sizzle society and saucy squad meetings also take place during drama society meetings
What do you have to be at those to be able to be in the drama club
Listen this really sucks. Yeah
Uh, we have a few kitchens in the back. Um, no, we don't want to cook people
Wait, this place is burned down 11 times so far
What there are kitchens in the middle of the in the backstage? Yeah, uh where they put the the um
And then you see cindrick the the the halfling who got yelled at just goes
Yeah, they put it
Where I used to i'm the costumer here
um
Yeah
so
So they installed like four different kitchens
uh back there
Um, we had to replace like a bit a bunch of our like a bunch of a closet a bunch of our outfits and stuff
Um, not a lot of you have to like throw some out
Do you still have a lot of like ones that you are still trying to figure out what to do with them? The mostly
some some some members, uh,
Graciously, let us store our outfits in the room
and there's a few we gotta there's a few we gotta get rid of because
Uh robber wants to install a grinding wheel for his for the knives
And he also wants to install a new spice rack for just for just cumin for just cumin
Well, do you need do you need a place for for those to go we could probably help with
Holding on to some of those costumes if you need
Oh, that's storm
That's really nice. But first like you have to join the
society and
For some reason society you have to join to use the costumes
Yeah, it's just a blanket rule. We've had the roof for a while, but you
have to be approved
By
fidelity
And her troop melody has to approve us. Yeah melody here
She's gonna be you you'll know when she's here
All right, so so we just gotta
When melanie gets here we just have to like
We have to what audition or some?
Yeah
um
i'm really sorry the
The audition pieces have gone down in quality
Okay, I think melody's written one of them
All right
I've been really i've been um getting really good at reading um my common recently
So I think we'll be able to and she looks to lusio and col I think we'll we'll be okay
Yeah, whatever it is the harmony wrote. I think we got it
Do you have memory issues she says quietly to what I mean
Quietly to what do you mean?
I'm gonna go get to your
Get to your monologues. All right. Thanks. Um, i'm warning you ahead of time
Robert is really into improv
What's that mean who's saying this this is this is cindrick this is the halfling that got yelled at by reno
No, he's into improv. Yeah, um that which means what does that mean? You gotta go
Off script there's so he he's running like an acting class. He's saying that instinct is a part of acting
Hey, robert sounds like a decent guy then except for me no in the cooking clubs. No, he's not. Okay. Oh daniel
Daniel just goes yeah. No
No, so it's not really melody. It's melody and robert that are kind of problems melody and robert and
Rod and dory me
uh
And oh, that's the one you were talking about and rum and robert is
Also, todd comes in here some also todd, uh cat waller that comes in here sometimes
Oh, who was that?
Who was that last one you said not todd the one before that oh robert is is that different from robert?
No, they're two completely different headaches
Robert is i'm sorry. I should be a lot nicer when i'm talking about the people
Who are in my club? I'm uh
They're mean people
Yeah, I i'm sensing a little tension but you know, I don't know something
I'm feeling what the what a perfect place to express yourself and your feelings then at the drama club
That used to be true, but not anymore
If you
Daniel walks up next to you kind of leans in closer his his gaze is genuinely a lot darker and just goes
Listen lucy
If you want to survive here
You need to guard your heart
Okay, keep your head down low you are going to be making sacrifices being here
She nods okay
All right, well, uh
Do you have one of these scripts for us to start reading over? Oh, yeah
Sinric's gonna go ahead and get them for you
All right, uh, do we are we putting on costumes and stuff for this?
That overpowering perfume
The
Pick the small atoms of light changing due to the overwhelming amount of pink around the corner
She's here we're gonna cut to velora real quick, uh, okay
Velora you you awake
And um as as you awake
As you awake, um, let's like okay
Saga saga asked me at the front gate at 10
Uh, it says at 10 so you're gonna you have a bit to prepare and get everything going
Um, you could do the jog thing but like like it's like a no pressure thing. It's just a fun a fun club
Um
Uh anything you're planning on doing on this particular morning
Um, I mean her basics is her basics implied every day is gotta go
Gotta go take care of phantom. But then also I think especially today. I think she wants to
Get ready for the date
Like, you know look nice but not like too nice because also she doesn't know what they're doing. So like you can't like
You gotta be like practical, you know
So
Yeah, as you're getting everything ready and you open the front door you are jump scared as you see marcellus goes hi. Hello
Oh, you're
There was a conversation that there was a there was a statement I heard from you earlier that you stated that I
That perhaps I was I was afraid to join the joggers club
I thought you would be afraid and I thought you would awake a lot earlier
Oh, I slept in
How long were you out there wait, so like okay you said you thought I'd wake a lot earlier
So you've been out here for how long how early that doesn't that doesn't matter
I had to be shooed away by the by the one of the nights and then you came back. Yes, of course
Okay, he's in his job he's in like physical training gear
You know
I I did join the joggers group and I did tell him that I didn't think
You would but you know what? We haven't done yet. Yeah, I haven't done nothing but stretching
We haven't raised
Phantom of maximus yet either
You're right. We haven't
I think it's because you've been avoiding it. Oh
I've been avoiding it
I mean, yeah, I've brought it up a few times and
Because circumstance I would never shy away from a challenge
For you the door opens you see the vor goes. Hi
Is everything all right out here?
Oh, it's fine. Good morning. Good morning
Um
Hi marcellus, you still here?
Um, hi marcellus. You're still here
Yes
Yeah, um
How long has he been out here how long has he been out here devora and you know last time I said that was like
6 30 either use the restroom
For the years and 6 30 marcellus. I was I was doing productive things. I was stretching
And
I wanted to see you
Um to challenge you of course
All right, so if you want to start your morning by stretching and losing that's fine by me
I mean, I wouldn't want to demoralize you before your before your date
Well, I mean quite the opposite I think I think I'll feel very very emboldened, you know getting on my wind streak
Continuing it rather is that is that
No, no, none
So what you're gonna have to earn it
Easy no, really
Well very well, what should we race for then on foot or on our respective mounts
You pick
Allow me to give maximus
All right
I am so scared
I'm worried for marcellus. Remember he gets deleted from the game. I know i'm scared for his existence
If he wins he gets deleted. Yeah, it's on my finger card. I thought this would be the first thing they do and they haven't
And so you don't want him to get deleted. Oh, he won't win. It's fine
Tim's that tim is not gonna delete him. He's gonna like have him die tragically
No, i'm going to timmy's google drive and i'm deleting marcellus
For my memory he's getting false
Hydrate he's gonna have like this very sweet like i'm as long as velour is happy. I'm happy love confession
And it's gonna be really sad
All right
Um physical pain and we're not there to like rig the race so he doesn't die
The morning the morning is the morning is bright
You see he's not dying
The morning is the morning is bright you step out to the cool you step out to the cool the cool mountain air
You see marcellus goes that guy like shivers a little bit at the air because it's it's a little cold. Um, oh cold too
Gonna make you slow
Um
And you see quincy
Uh, like walking by like going uh, like walking back to the to the noble dorms
Oh, hey quincy
morning
You want to watch our race?
Okay
You're late someone has to stop someone has to stop the both of you if things go too far
I don't think we ever go too far
Uh after the race, uh
And actually I just give this a damson
I got a I got a letter for the um
I got a letter for
lucia and lucia and col
Oh, well, I think she said that
I think they lucia and col are going to like drama club. Yeah, I know that I can't be with them today
Oh, why not
Why not I don't want to want to
Oh, so you're gonna back out
But also I got
They got something else important to do today
Yeah, you gotta watch our race. So
Gotta make sure you guys don't kill each other
Yeah, he ghosted us
All right
Let's see if we remember that
Okay, marcellus goes yes
You get to witness as the you get to witness as the dawn as I crown the dawn and it breaks and quits just goes
Ready? I'm just just cutting him off
Good luck marcellus
And good luck to you as well double luck to you even
I need you to take the luck because I needed to be at least a little bit competitive
hmm
You can keep your luck because you might need that
for your date
I genuinely hope you have a good time. I'm sure we will
the two of you seems
the interactions that seem with the both of you the two of you seem really like
really good and
We had that chat the other day and I truly hope you find like your utmost
Happiness and such it's just the first day, you know, yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes
but like, you know, it's on you're on the pathway and
You know, you are someone like everyone's worthy of happiness that I'm just saying like I hope it goes well
I forgot to roll my d6 for today. I get plus 3 ac today in case that's relevant
All right
We make our way. We says we make our way around we touch
Says we hover above the points of each mountain if we turn that surrounds Irabran
And then we finish like says when we come back to quincy
And and quincy just goes what as he's either looking down on a book the reading
All right ready to be demoralized
By your complete and utter defeat I know i'm quite radiant but i'm not a mirror
the laura avanlea
A mirror to what like to you to you to you to you to you obviously to you
All right, let's go
And you're off
as
As both uh as you see maximus is like not even like regarding you you see uh phantoms like
Like kind of like like kind of like trying to get maximus's attention like
But maximus is not giving it go and the both of you
Uh just absolutely fly off
um
longstrider
There is a genuine
There is a genuine as the breeze whips through your hair and marcellus
Marcellus you you have things that make you naturally faster beyond just your intense training
Even without even without your aon mark you have earned
Like you are disciplined to the highest degree when it comes to flying
You watch even though marcellus does like behind naturally
That he shares that he shares in that
Um, and that is only at this age a skill that comes into discipline and genuine like love and passion
for for this
Um, so you know at the very least he has that
um
and even now
I will ask as you're as you are flying like zip like zip zopping around the side of a mountain dodging trees seeing the
um seeing seeing the uh the traps from before being dismantled by uh by ira ben faculty members
um
Is velora having fun?
Oh, yeah, she
She loves this. It's
the best thing for her and she is
very very very competitive and absolutely needs to crush him too, so
She cannot lose on this at all things. It's not allowed despite that you also see
Like you catch the you catch the glimpse even though it's a blur
um
Your your mother has always said that
Stay like when you stand and you talk and you and you address your people
You no matter how far away somebody was you can always feel happiness
A smile is perceptible in different ways. Not only through sight that is why
Those who can't see that's why they even they like naturally smile while their lips curved and that's something that can be sensed
by uh, anyone
Is when someone expresses their happiness the world changes around you marcellus is having fun as well
And that is prevalent
Make a animal hand. Let me check you with
You add your uh dex mod to it
Dex on top of my on top of this use deck on top of it. Okay, and then I also have expertise
Um
So this will be plus an additional five
15 16 17 18 19 20 21
Oh my gosh
23 for marcellus
Marcellus
As you kind of like keeping your eyes on the front like you've been so uh, you've been so ahead for a bit
You look back
like oh is marcellus so behind that he's gone
and
You see it. He's sneaky
He he's actively not making noise as you look as you suddenly look forward and you do a double take as you see marcellus
in front of you
Kind of like a sneaky grin on his face as he's trying to make any sound to like get your notice
so
Okay, it makes her get more serious. He wasn't supposed to pass her at all
So she uses an exertion point
to um
She uses one of her exertion points to do what's it called?
Um, where is that? Where is that? Where is that? The um
Mounted charge to go an additional movement
Um as part of
Well, actually, I don't think that makes a difference
Because i'm already dashing with my action
So, okay, so let's just say um, so not that I will do expeditious retreat
As you cast
As you cast a spell and you begin to get over him as you get past him. He just goes
Ta no
No
That I almost had you yeah, you thought you were real sneaky, huh?
You were so focused
Um
He as your expeditious retreat carries you forward aided aided by magic marcellus not um, not magically gifted
Doesn't have an a on mark
Um relying on only the only the natural uh, only the skill he has lags behind a considerable amount
In you see he's just padding like come on maximus. Come on now
says
This is for our reputation
This goes
Uh
And he just goes I have to show them this was not a mistake
Like oh no, um, buddy
maximus seems
maximus maximus arct like seemingly sharing the emotions of marcellus
Has the look of locking in and tries to go fast and tries to go faster as well
Um
And you see the uh
Maximus just looks off to the side and just goes marcellus just goes
All right
Take me your way then
And maximus completely veers off
Oh the path
Um
You are ahead
As you're just kind of like as you're as you're in the front for a while I would say about like 20 seconds
You see all of a sudden a big black dot in the sky
As a extremely fast moving pegasi
Uh with marcellus is dive bombing and moving at an insanely fast rate
She's
Maybe he caught the wind up there. He's pretty sharp
That's okay. You've got more power than him and we'll just like
Push through as you push through phantom kind of looks back at you
With the eyes that say like stinger
No
Keeps going a little bit of a sigh
Um that comes that point when you are getting towards the
You're getting towards the end where you see quincy
Marcellus is going at a very fast rate. You don't know what they caught that that is a unnaturally fast rate
Uh marcellus's hair is blowing
Uh, you see you can even see that like maybe he doesn't have complete control
Um, go ahead and make an animal handling check for me
Um
I don't know if it would work, but would we be able to orient
Ourselves enough and with like phantom's wings to maybe if he doesn't have full control to try to like do like
like um
Like a sweep of his wings and throw them off a bit
Oh, yeah
Okay, not to like hit him with it, but like to get wind moving towards them. Mm-hmm
Absolutely
In that case, uh still still an animal handling check is we're using uh phantom
Um, let's see here. Um 23 24 25 26 27 28 and 30
30
30 baby
us marcellus is behind you and just goes
Just um, just have a look at watch out. Um
you see phantom maneuvers and just
a big a bit a big gust of wind towards uh towards his way
And legitimately you see as the wind as the wind meets him
uh
Coming up closer. You see that maximus legitimately has like a like a like like a bullet shape of like a sphere of wind around him
And that blast completely dispels it
And maximus stops
You're okay
Maximus
Maximus kind of like uh marcellus looks down at maximus
Completely stopped just as maximus is flying in the air
It just he hates himself
Um, uh, you didn't have to do that. Um, uh, my son's pat's maximus
You see maximus seems exerted
All right, we don't have to do this and the maximus suddenly goes suddenly just starts going
Maximus a magical pony
Um
The finish line is ahead
maximus tries to get one up on you and try and try to
Uh and try to go but with your natural speed and your expeditious retreat
Oh
Do you want to
Describe what happens when velour crosses quincy
She will zoom past him
Trying oh someone not to knock him over. Huh? Oh someone won
One okay lucius
Weird
Um and then um flip around look back
Marcellus
Can't hide the little disappointed the disappointment is more on maximus's face
Who seems actually pissed?
Uh
Marcellus just takes off the goggles puts it on his forehead
Well better than I thought you would be like I don't think I've short of my mom
Um, I don't think I've ever been against someone that fast
And it is nice to know that
There's someone I can genuinely learn from
But
Really fair well
This goes
Well, perhaps I can bridge the gap
If you've grown too complacent, of course
Then i'll catch up
Hopefully i'll be a reminder that you shouldn't grow complacent. You should keep growing
And i'll make you better if you
If you become if you are a figure to learn from for me
Good because I don't plan on letting anyone catch up almost said you there maximus had quite a plan
Then I could tell cut a high wind mint for pegasi
You're an intelligent one
I mean I could tell that already but pissed off sigh
For max i'm serious. I you know how many pegasus I I work with
With relents becomes calm
I
Don't think I mean my pegasi are sharp but
Not sharp like that make a persuasion check really rare
His maximus lowers cr i'm kidding that I think that only applies to humanoids
I don't know friendly creatures with lower cr than level. Is he lower cr? I guess i'll check
Guys couldn't have much rolls because velour is just already naturally faster. We also didn't want marcellus to die
Why you just never have existed maximus is a lower uh lower uh cr than you do
Persuasion with advantage then
Um 20 total
You see the typical look
Despite despite maximus being like a little bit different than others should we judge it a black pegasi?
You see the look of like the eye roll into acceptance
Have you seen from pegasi before?
It goes to accept your praise
Should fly with phantom in me more often I would actually love that
Perhaps not as a race but maybe it's more like there's a lot to see here. Yeah
Well, I was going to challenge you also to a jog but
Break into that too
I don't want to get it. I don't want to get a hold of more of your time. That's all
It was it was
It was good. Thank you
Thank you, i'm glad I have someone who actually might challenge me
I'll always
If you allow me, of course
I'm gonna do my best to not allow you too much, you know, like oh can't have anything that close
I mean today was pretty close and i'm
Not comfortable with that. Oh, you're such a tease
Well
It says i'm gonna get quite the scolding by maximus so I should go probably get that done
Yeah, but this is like starting early just prolong it or
You know
So you trained maximus
Yes
Well, you know if you
If you ever don't know what you want to do with your life and
I can I think pretty comfortably say we'd be happy to have you working with the pegasi at my house
Genuinely, it's an honor
That's uh, it is nice to have that under consideration in case things don't quote don't quite go my way
You'll never not have a job opportunity at least
Plus someone else has to do it anyways once i'm bored one day, but he suddenly turns away from you
No, I have to I have to go suddenly but uh, genuinely, thank you
You okay
Yes, yes, maximus is just getting a little impatient have a good rest of your day
If I was too competitive, uh, no, no, no, no, no, no, it wasn't that
All right
See you run
I
Love so in love with her. It's so sad
Oh phantom you get lots of treats for winning
Just like we expected but can I go now
I'm I mean, I'm not sure
I'm not sure
I'm I mean i'm not holding you hostage
It's always sort of implied with you got it so you're scared of me
I'm about to go now
Have fun not doing drama
I'm dealing with
You know drama just finds me I guess are you okay? Yeah
Are you sure house stuff that's all
Stupid house stuff
Well, how about you everything all right? Oh, yeah, I've never got a date
It doesn't get much better than that, right
I want to know right i've no idea with who I haven't been hearing about this constantly throughout the week
Oh, well actually her name's saga she's the leader of the black wars
That's seriously if you need help with
Your stupid house stuff though or need a letter to make its way there faster you focus on you being you all right?
All right
And I know it's a little
It's a little weird
To deny your help at an offer, but i'm also around to help anything you need
You think
you've
Do you think I need help or no?
Just making sure you know, I appreciate it though. Just making sure you know
I do know so
I appreciate it
If I'm being completely honest, you have been having a bit too much happiness. I've been thinking my ways to tear you down
Not easy to do
Pose out a little bottle of acid
Okay, I guess that would mess up my day a little bit
Well, thank you for giving me that information
See you I mean nobody wants to have
Okay
Oh cool phantom down
Phantom as you bring phantom down you see phantom has like is kind of excited starts like hopping around a little bit
That would be that guy
Because he's so good very gentle and so fast
Hmm phantom of course nuzzles you oh a little bit
Oh a little bit and he's been getting lots of treats because we've been working on his training to get him to
Return to the stable from anywhere put himself to bed
And
Do you get ready for your date?
I do which is probably gonna have to be on the next episode sadly
No, it's good because I want I want all of the episode to be dedicated to the date
That's part of why I was like I did say date because you said so but on all the um
Stuff on the stream. I was like i'm making it all about the theater
Because I know how we are
Oh god, I don't want the date to be overshadowed. I wanted to get the chart at the end of the last session

Look, we all gotta come from somewhere. You know what I mean? You're done. You're done
Okay
Am I in?
Okay, no
I can't help but feel that perhaps there is a little bit of
Miss for tune with you with your presence here because of this additional part of a script that I'd never believe that
I wrote but apparently I did
Did you meant to take that part off your resume
I just mean sometimes we write things just think about
Maybe it's like an early draft
Shush, maybe it's like an early draft you shush you
You okay goodness some people uh

Passion with determination with points to Robert and Robert goes with acting
Acting well, okay. Um, I I've never really acted before if i'm gonna be honest, um, oh
No, that's not a character that's just me, um, i've i've never acted before and he's really deep into it
What just talk about something you love or something something I love um, I don't talk about velour you like velour, right?
Give me your deepest darkest feelings. Let me know what is in
Going on deep within you
Would I let complete strangers know what my complete deepest darkest feelings are that seems you are acting
That is what it's like to that is that is what you're doing to an audience
Oh, I get the characters putting up like a wall

Okay, i'm not that guarded. I am very social and very friendly and she's speaking to no one else
She's speaking to herself in the scene. She's crazy
I'm not anti-social. I have a lot of friends here. Surprisingly actually
I'm doing pretty well all things considered. Thank you very much. Oh, she's self-conscious
Self-conscious, aren't we all self-conscious? I mean, there's a bunch of people from different places all coming together one spot
We're all going to be a little self-conscious and seen
What does that even mean very spirited performance?
Was just I think that was even better than the melody my little dog that was just me perfect
Now we have one more for the both of you to do a duo scene
A duo scene
We have but we have three actors lucio just goes

You're fully clothed now go do it. You have succeeded the part
Okay, um right

There we go. Okay. Um
Uh
Oh, oh
Um, um, um mom mom
uh
Not uh, um
uh
um
Um
Can we switch parts?
I think there's a part of her that like looks out to the crowd to see if garvey would be there
Not there. Oh
Um, because he said he'd always protect her and then she kind of goes back
No
You cannot switch parts now. Keep going or else you'll never enter the drama society
Um lucia, it's okay. I can do it. I'm sorry. Can I can I um

Can I insight check that is there something weird?
They're trying to do some um, give me one second because all of my applications just minimized
Oh, no
We're back. Hello everyone and everyone's frozen one second
Hello everyone and everyone's frozen one second. Oh, no, no, no, we're back. Hello everyone
We're back
Um, okay, what was the question again, can I try and like insight like is there a reason why
like
Some reason that they want her to read the cross out words. Um
If you're gonna look over to her it's the same thing that's no wait, you actually don't know that
Uh, go ahead make an insight check it for me, but yeah
13
Um
you don't discern that there is like like you don't understand as like there's a genuine like
Bad like or nefarious reason
Um, it just feels like this place is pretty clumsy all around
Okay, so it's probably something really innocent
Okay. All right
So because because lucia is directly translating it from celestial, um, the script isn't going to be verbatim
But it's going to be like a little uh similar to it. Um, uh, so lucia go, um, okay, um
oh
Merciful mother
Not not another nighttime
danger
um, I I enlisted for for the the military, um with
With with with handsome, um and brave
uh brave
Nights, um, but instead I
I just I dispense
bandages to the week, um
No time to woo or or brush my locks
Uh, I'm sorry ma'am just not
Wait, was that no hildred? He is a man. Sorry
I'm sorry, ma'am
Just not used to a big old needle rummaging around in my underbits
Even my goat grata never gave me this much trouble
Pause for laughter before getting stabbed and then a melody looks towards you. See it just goes stab him
What
Why am I stabbing him? What I I pull out a dagger and hand it to you
Daniel just goes no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
No
Okay, I'll put it back
Mimic mimic
Pretend it pretend it. Oh
It's supposed to be a syringe but okay, ouch that's worse than and hilda's pickled turnips
Sorry, I'm the ground
Oh, oh, I'm sorry. It's okay. They're mine coughing. You're choking and I didn't say that on mine. Um, uh,
Uh, saria, um wiping her brow

Us pause pausing pause for laughter. Ha ha ha ha ha
Oh, oh that you're supposed to laugh. Okay. Um, yeah. Yeah, I think so
Your your your stomach is in ribbons. I I wonder if
the the the big bird on the battlefield is is ready to
Take your soul off to snack time with those on high
Except I will sew you up
saria aside
I won't let him leave. I'd leave die die on my watch. Oh, I get up I get up
No, no, okay, um
Not not one. I don't have any more after this. Do you have any more after this? No, that's that's it
Is there a question? Is there more another page?
Are you look koala you look at your script? Yeah, is there more?
You're looking at the koala script because there's more there is more for you. I'm looking at lucia's and oh i'm looking at lucia, too
Oh, oh, I was yeah lucia has a lot cut off. It has not been done writing
Okay, uh, oh jeez. It's a lot more
uh
That's all I have. Um
Oh, uh, well, you won't let me die. Well, someone didn't finish
It's okay. You can share scripts. You can read the common
Yep, i'm sure melody
Fidelity the famed
Anore and medicare won't let me die
you
shush you
Now lucia if you will
Just share scripts
Okay, I'll just hold it
I kind of point to the words
Now lucia
Do I know I don't know you will
I don't know you look at the words in front of you and it's such a jumble. You're not at this level
um
Can I try can I see the letters begin to like you hear?
like a like a small blow of wind
in the air
As you can as you see the the script seems to be speaking out to you
Cole are you doing that he whispers to him?
no
uh, uh, can I try and like speak in like like hushed like in
Primordial like oren to her. I don't know if she knows it but just try and like read the words
But I know that's that's a very like um breezy language
So it might for you call you don't see the the wind blowing you don't hear you don't see anything
Yeah
I'm just gonna try try and translate it under my breath to see if she I don't know she knows it
Lucia will just quietly say to colt colt. It's okay
You know them now
All right as the script
Becomes clear to you for some clarity
wind blowing wind begins to creep into your ears as
um as seemingly
Clarity and knowledge begins to caress inside of your head
For some reason lucia
for now
Maybe because of determination you have no idea
Because you don't you don't want to think that determination had to come through for
This damn this damn thing
Yeah, but for right now
The script becomes clear to you
You can read it
Okay, um see the last line I left up
Patching you up first
Um, this is to uh an aside so that means I guess I say that to um
The audience right?
Uh, I guess oh my goodness
Um
I won't let him die on my watch
At least not without one last dramatic flourish
Why would you dramatically flourish if you're in a battle? I
Melody fidelity
Famed anorian medic cleric. You're not a cleric. You're a paladin
Keep going
I can be both
I think lusia's slow
Hi guys, give me one second as things are a little bit awry
Uh-oh
Uh-oh spaghetti. Oh
Let me get back into the day. This has never happened before my discord
Hi guys, we're back as i've stated everything is a okay are we back are we still back?
Audience okay, we're okay. We are gonna I think we're gonna we're gonna have to read this we're gonna have to keep going

Okay. All right. All right
Okay, sorry, what was I saying last? Oh, it's starting to all um
Crinkle down and she's like, you know, this is really insightful. She holds up the script that she and kool are sharing
it's really insightful the the
Um things you noticed about us you cast us really well, you know the
Dealer who's kind of lame, right? And uh, oh my goodness. She's improvising
She's using instincts country. She used goes to country bumpkin who doesn't know much
It's really insightful for someone to write something like that
It's your deal
You do this to everyone
That's just what this is about are you attacking me
No, but I will
Is this still part of the you will and daniel just goes hey lucia. Let's not push the script into coles chest gently
It's ridiculous that people have to join two cooking clubs to join the drama club and let me make this really clear
I'm sorry. This is editing jenny and um, this has never happened before so I
Was trying to figure out what to do here. There were technical difficulties. So we never got to hear the end of lucia's speech
um until
She continued semi in the next half
So, um, there's a little skip here and then us like
Vamping while we try to get the stream back started. So yeah, we're gonna cut into that here
Thank you
Hello everyone, welcome back, uh computer died, uh
It's not great. No melody was scared. Melody was very scared dude. Lucia was like
Aura it was aura like lucia's aura was just fucking it
Dude the wind came and turned my computer off it messed with the wires
Thanks for hanging in folks. Um, okay. Where you guys what it was the last thing you heard tim before
We froze you began to go off like oh the country pumpkin. Uh the things like that on the script
Okay, let me get back into melody
She goes no wonder no one wants to join the drama club. I mean you make people read these scripts that make fun of them
What's the matter with you?
uh
Sing along by the way, are you colorblind? Because it says you're gonna start using purple ink and then then it you wrote in black ink
Daniel Daniel goes actually that's my fault, but we should let lucia continue her tyrant. I'm really enjoying this. Sorry. Don't don't mind me
I'm just like
It just you know what? I feel really bad for you melody
I feel really bad that you feel like you have to make other people feel smaller so that you can feel bigger
That's really sad
It's really sad
I need another
Pastry
No, you need more than that. You need a good talking to by someone
Do you want me to get it for you you do not want to make an enemy out of me
Like an enemy out of me
I promise you this
Right, do I see where the pastries came from?
The uh the bag that melody that melody has does say uh, the eostriff
Uh eostriff, uh cafe, which is a cafe, but she just she just has them there. Okay. Yeah
All right. Got it. Right. I shouldn't make an enemy of you after all. I'm just uh, i'm sorry
What was the line coal? Let me pull it back up. Let's see. Um, uh a glorified bandage dispenser, right?
I shouldn't make an enemy of you
Did I?
What else I am though
I'm the fucking retainer of the silver lions
And my leader velora
Would not stand for any of this and as the retainer of the silver lions, I will not stand for any of this
You're done melody
I will never be done
My work is tireless. I am the voice of destiny
I think you're kind of like the understudy of destiny actually
Maybe a stand-by take a both of you take an inspiration
Leave
Now
I will delinquish your control of the drama club and I will
Oh dear you're serious
Oh my goodness deadly
She pulls out a gun and just goes now
If you're going to be serious and I will also answer in kind you
You want to me for the linker's control of the drama club? You are going to have to take it from me
A duel
Duel no you should the whoever this whoever the president whatever of the drama club should be voted on
People have voted for me
She looks at she looks at every you voted for her
Um, if you if you look at like anyone besides her inner group they kind of like eyes turn away from you
You know, and then uh, and then daniel just goes I didn't vote for her but that uh, didn't really matter at the end of it
Next sunday
Find me on the proving grounds
Of the drama club if you win
I will gladly relinquish control of the drama society. I'll even keep the precious sponsorships intact
Because it was my lifeblood that was keeping this place going
So
And if I lose
You become my understudy
Like so that'd be like in life studying you shut up you
So i'd serve you what you're getting at here yes
Yes a fine proposition don't you have enough people to serve you
You have a charming smile and compared to the others that I would love to watch break

He begins to walk to the music a little bit like

But the spirit of the entire drama society is on your shoulders now
If you look at colin just
I guess I guess I think got her. Oh cool. Too. Sorry. Look if if she can fight
anywhere like even
If her fighting level is about the same as her writing level
I don't think it's gonna go very well for her. I do want to say, um
And I wasn't trying to correct you a little because I didn't want to make you feel bad
It was me who was really trying to make you feel bad. I was trying to make you feel bad
It was me who was writing it. I write I have to write the scripts
Uh, she just kind of tells you what to write. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. I don't sorry if i'm insulting you
I I really shouldn't have written sort of like my inner monologue in the middle of the monologue. That was really
Not good. I just had to organize my thoughts sometimes. You know what I mean?
Gotcha
I completely understand. Um, well col I have to say
You have spit out some lyrics really quick. So
Listen, she'll just turn back to daniel

She can she can speak like to f like an f f1 to f2 or something like that
Got it. Um
Lucia yes, that is a noble attitude to have
You yourself
Cannot benefit directly
from the fruit of your labor
but
Through your liberation other people can find happiness
And you yourself can enjoy from that
Well, yeah, it's kind of what being a cleric is all about
You'd be surprised
How lacking that attitude is around here?
He looks at coal
I mean, that's how he's back home
People don't care

Okay, this is really top secret information. I can't believe i'm saying this
They're trying to sabotage the sagadon derrius fan club
What the fuck does that mean
Uh, there's a group of students going around trying to poison people
That get too close to sagadon derrius and that's all the information that I know so you see here take it away
No, you've some that i've actually cold that was really well done. Good job. Oh, thank you
Okay, so like what cost is you just infiltrating a date
I think we just need to blend in but not look like us. Do you have like a wig?

We have bags. You can just take like it's a grab bag of wigs. You can just take it if you want
Perfect. Maybe um a uniform from the other students. Maybe you know that you don't know where the house where from oh we can't
Do that?
Here's a question do you have
something like a
Like a long kind of like black cloak and like a mask
Yeah, of course. Yeah, of course we do. Yeah
Yeah, yeah something like that on the way here I just saw this like
Kind of scary but like kind of cool person and I thought it'd be kind of cool
Okay, you saw someone with the mask it was it was on the way to school. It wasn't it wasn't here
Okay. Yeah, we got him. Okay. That's kind of scary. So do you want like yeah, no, no, they were kind of scary
I think they tried to kill me. Do you want kind of like a featureless white mask or
Yeah, yeah, some something featureless, but like I want to be like cool
Yeah, like scary but like they wouldn't know who I am. You know, I mean, okay
So you want a long you want a long black cloak you want to dress up like
a like killer in the middle of a night that's someone tried to kill you
No, yeah, it was part of the whole remember when we got attacked by the war beast and all that kind of stuff
Oh, I get
Okay
Well, anyway, this isn't for the day. I just I just I have an idea and I think I might want to use it
Well, I do have that mask specifically for you. So here they go. Oh perfect. Perfect
And here's your black cloak
Perfect. It is as dark as the night
use uh
We use something called a true black color. It's really hard to get
But do you have like a cool what would be a cool name for like someone who i'm gonna hold the mask up kind of put the hood on
Would be a cool name for this
Like a mass terror the
Really good the name's cool, I think it really cut out for the drama club the night the the night walker the
not
Night stalker. I feel like I can't say night crawler. That seems like it might be from somewhere
um
The the the wind beneath the the silent wind the silent wind wind
the dawn breaker the
dark break
the
Eclipse moonlit eclipse eclipse night
The dark night
No, I feel like we can't say that one either
Um

Okay
So this is for something else. This is a different project in regards to the infiltration. Yes three costumes that will help us blend in

I'm still here. Oh, sorry. Do we need one for for uh, garvey?
Wait garvey was garvey here. He was gonna be here and uh, he's not here yet
So i'm actually kind of worried about him, but he was supposed to be here
It's okay, I don't think he's coming
I mean maybe something just kind of got busy. Do you want to just get a costume for him just in case?
Sure, yeah doesn't hurt
Okay, well i'm starting to run out of futureless white masks
I don't think we need that for him. I think just the two
Okay
I don't think we need that for him. I think just the two masks. All right. Hey, so um
Hey real quick just from like person to person. Hmm. You're not gonna kill anyone are you?
My gosh, no, no, no unless now unless sing-along in there starts it
She wouldn't actually kill me though. I mean she pulled a gun on you
Yeah, okay. Yeah for theatrics is the theater club there make they she imported that gun that it cost like
It cost like 6 000 gold pieces
I think that was a real gun. I think that was a real gun on me. Yeah, it was a real gun
It came from like the salarian empire loaded
Huh? Could I tell if it was loaded what?
Uh, did she pull the real gun on me? I'm gonna go ahead and tell you yes. Yeah. Yeah, I think it was loaded
Did she pull the loaded gun on me? Yeah, it's always you. Yeah, it's always loaded. She pointed at herself. She does not understand gun safety
She needs she that woman needs help. Yeah, it's bad here. Yeah, it's bad. She's probably gonna get someone killed
on accident
She shot Reno once by accident. Oh my god. Not Reno. Okay. Yeah, Reno apologized
What for getting shot at?
It's bad here. It's bad here. It's so bad. I have to go talk to our house leader

Went after went after melody deserved it
So I gotta tell you guys what was gonna happen
If they completed the script
Yes, please do. I'm sorry. I ruined that no, you're fine. No, absolutely. I was like reading ahead in it and I was like
So at the very end of the script it says play your note
The rest of the script is crossed out and over it is scrawled the word improvise
So robert would have been like improv and then hit someone over the head with a wooden chair
Uh, and you all would have to do uh a combat encounter
Against robert who was gonna be like I am an enemy soldier. I am invading your ranks and you would have to still
Oh my god, you would have to still be you would have to still be within character as
You all tried to fight robert in universe character
Oh, no, but I kind of want to do it now though robert went down
Robert went down says wait saraya think about your mother
Wait, can we please do it? Can we please revive it somehow?
Please you know
I think maybe maybe it has to well, there's a duel happening
I love that tim that was honestly and this is and I know we're ending but like that was such a creative
Such a no really like that was so creatively and well done in terms of integrating the fucking drama
So where are the other songs?
You gotta unlock them. We're gonna we're gonna keep playing. We're gonna get old
Oh
My god. Well now velora we have to write the rest club. We have to write the rest

Next time we're gonna go on the date
Day day day night. All right. See you around. Bye. Bye
The winds have been whispering of what's to come but every time the words are bound to leave my tongue some
Obstacle arises some unstoppable force my deepest fear awakens fits and stop up of course
But there's so much I still don't see
Hide in the mountains where they train the elite
Amongst all this nobility you with your end mark of passage and speed with riches and power in your family tree
But injustice strains all your loyalty desire and duties the balance between
Me
The winds have been whispering of what's to come
Foreboding whispers whispers to thunder your castle walls crumbling one by one against the blood red sky right on fandom
I fight for what's right
Some may call me naive
But nothing can put out the flame in me
The goddess of spring a life from death she bring taken from war raised in items ministry
Two silver lions from different packs I shed off my shelteredness freedom at last
I pray what i've seen does not have to be done for the ones
I've been whispering
The winds have been whispering of what's to come
