Need to know before I can know what my reaction is:
did I hear anything at the time the smoke puffed up?
was the smoke puff down in the wash or up above it?
does the wash go in a straight line or is it windy?
Well, it was dust from the ground that kind of burst up, not smoke, but.
You think you might have heard a hissing noise just before.
I assumed you were walking on the upper edge of the wash rather down in the center. So it was n the upper edge with you.
It's not perfectly straight, but it's bends are gentle and few.
"...I'll take that as a yes."

"I have won."
"Where?"
"There, Diagonally"
"Pretty sneaky...simulated girl person."
Finish the peasants off with a full clip of .45 shots. Then, go look around the town for a succulent busty young wench to kidnap.
You fire repeatedly into both men and then kick the front door open and walk out as the tavern begins to burn behind you.
"Now then...I've always heard tales of farmer's daughters...Hopefully I can find one thats not got polio."
You look around while idly reloading. People are starting to come out of the few homes clustered around the road. Just men by the look of it, but if there are girls, they're probably still in the house. Hmm, how to handle this...

((Same here Piecewise, did I detect anything about Lyra?))
Try to trip the trip-wire with my pipe IF:
> I haven't detected any signs of danger from tripping the wire [ie following the mechanism]
> Anything in my surroundings doesn't present any sense of danger to me
> Lyra is doing A'Ok
Well, lyra is uninjured for the moment, but thats only just right now. As per signs of danger from the mechanism, thats hard to tell. You can't see what the wire leads to unless you go into the building itself. As it is the wire just leads off into darkness.
Head over to the AM.
"S'cuse me ma'am... Got anything that can help with a little headache I got?"
She gives you a bottle of aspirin and a pamphlet about alcoholism.
"So, you certainly think you have emotions. That's really what matters, I guess. Though I can't help but wonder about one thing - are they all the possible emotions? Are you capable of love? Or depression? How about jealousy and anger? If you're made of human brains, you probably should have the wiring for all of those, but do they express themselves? Well, unless the probable lack of an endocrine system really changes that much, though I don't think it necessarily should."
Brain-questions!
>Perhaps you could say I experience them in a much more...intellectual, detached fashion. I'm not as swayed by them as you are. "Well... by the looks of things, the majority of people aren't doing anything remotely relevant"
Charles joins Feyri and Lyra's sim.
You pop into the simulation a few feet away from Feyri.
((@PW: You missed my action, here it is again.))
I really need to post more...and make bigger posts.
Try again, run from Jim before he starts his attack.
((What, two consecutive failures with a bonus ))
(it happens.)
[will:5+2]
You activated your bullet time mode, however Jim seems to have reacted as well. You can already see the air in front of him shimmering with collecting force.
(( OK, I wanted to announce it later, but here it is:
Thank you all. It was a great ride, great read and a lot of fun. Unfortunately, very soon (maybe in a week) I am going to be drafted and won't be able to post here at least for a year. You know, blessed be the ever-benevolent Magisters and the honourable and glorious military of the UWM!
Well, whatever. Anyway, some day a year since now I'll be back. And I am looking forward to that day.
May Steve watch over you all and save you from the incompetence and the horrible idiotic death! ))
Always sad to see a player go, even temporarily. We shall miss you and your strange brand of medical practice that actually results in people being less injured when you're done then when you started. With Irony awol the only dedicated medic left is mesk.
Pray for your teammates.
Good luck with whatever your military duty may entail. Hopefully you will get stationed in the rare 70th internet brigade, the "Flying LOLcats".
Make sure to let me know whenever you're actually on your way out. I shall handle things from there.
