Re: High Moon Tales. Tales of the Wicked West.
¿ªÔÆÌåÓý[Sicilien] Regardless of how deeply Sicilien may have slept, there was a part of him that always stayed away on some level.? It wasn't that he wasn't able to drift off, but that his very nature dictated that he always keep on eye open, so to speak.? Even if it was an eye that neither of them could see.? Howlings aside, this was a relatively peaceful place so he took what he could get.? It sounded like the trouble they were going to get to would increase in level as they went along, if the demonic forces that were hellbent on tearing them apart would not disperse.? Like most hordes, mindless, feral beings like the ones whirling about the in the storm always had a leader, and if they find this leader, then they could put a stop to the chaos.? That is, if the leader was anywhere near here, which they would be stupid if they were. Regardless, they were stuck here for now and he was going to get some semblance of rest.? However, when his consciousness heard Callie mention the female, he perked up, though gave no physical indication thereof.? His chest continued to rise and fall, being quite successful at the mimicry of one deep in sleep, but kept one ear open.? He, too, was curious as to why Chase had such a hard-on for her. (Etienne Dessuente) As Etienne lay listening with her back to the group, her hair across her face she would be lying if she didn¡¯t secretly find it amusing that the woman was starting to grill the big ass who had followed her here both to the town and in the jail...the fact that he had actually apparently helped her notwithstanding. She was also the surprised that other women didn¡¯t hear his explanation of why he wasn¡¯t letting her out of his sight.? Because he believed she was part of this five that the crazy Amy kept yammering about. She wasn¡¯t...or at least that wasn¡¯t something she was willing to claim (even if truth be told she did kinda believe). Her life was complicated enough without getting wrapped up in this drama. (Chase) Chase frowned he understood that others thought he and
Etienne were an item.? Sure he would have
secretly liked that idea, but she made it clear she wasn¡¯t fond of him at
all.? So now he was acting like some
heartsick lover protecting a woman with unrequited love.? She was important in all of this.? The other guy maybe gone, but that didn¡¯t
change his roll in all of this and apparently it was not around this time¡but
through that mean he would have to get her and the others to Miller¡¯s Crossing
in one piece¡ok alive or he would never be free¡one way or another. ¡°Is it so hard to believe in things that go bump in the night?? Demons, devils, witches, vampires, werewolves?? You don¡¯t have any time when you simply couldn¡¯t explain something?? If not then why do you have special bullets?? Why was everyone here so comfortable with a man becoming a horse?¡±? He knew it was Flynn because his scent didn¡¯t change. ¡°She doesn¡¯t deserve this crap.? I just want to make sure she gets through this so she can have her life back, whatever life that may be.¡±? He said thinking she just got caught up in something she wasn¡¯t quite prepared for and to him that wasn¡¯t fair.? He made his choice she was just in the wrong place¡at least to him anyway. ¡°So till we get there and free of whatever this is¡I don¡¯t plan on letting her out of my sight.¡±? He said looking over them all.? His ears picking up subtle changes in those resting but thing he wanted to comment on without revealing his own nature. (Callie Carson) ? Well, getting anything straight out of Chase was probably unlikely. She was suspicious of the woman laying on the cot in the sheriff's office. Callie gave a deep sigh and walked over to Etienne, standing over her on the cot. ? ?"So I'll ask you, who are you and why are you here?" the redhead wanted to know. ? ?Outside the shrieking continued.... (Flynn) Continuing to keep the waking world at a comfortable distance, Flynn immersed himself in his dream construction, letting the glamour gather about him, replenishing his depleted resources.? At the same time, he contemplated the difficulties of the situation he and the others were in.? The mob howling outside the sheriff's office and clawing at the door didn't worry him all that much. The people with him inside the office had already proven that they were more than capable of protecting themselves, though the town itself being steadily decimated in the process.? The real problem was how were they going to get to Miller's Crossing with their path being constantly blocked or misdirected by some arcane means by party or parties unknown. Ordinarily the pookah would simply have opened a portal that could allow them to travel directly to the Crossing. But in order to do that, he would have had to have actually been there at least once, which he never had.? Failing that, he might have been able to create a portal if he had a photo or a painting or even a good hand drawing of the scene, but it was unlikely that a place like Miller's Crossing had ever been deemed worth the effort of any of those things. He hoped one of the others could come up with something and would wake him if and when they did.? Staying put amid howling possessed townfolk without a source of unbespelled water was not attractive as an option. (tag?Chase, Callie, Flynn, Sicilien, Etienne, Charity (jumping in) |
