Well, that's alright then. And you're right, I'm not going to be telling the details of my life, especially to people I've only just met.

I'm going to assume Pierre is smart enough to guess what Xerxes means with his gestures. If not I can still change my next IC post to fit the story.

Re: [OOC] The Catacombs, hard SF
 

Well, the first part of the plan worked well, maybe a little too well. Now if Pierre keeps his mouth shut but still backs away (hoping for a second warning), would that still be overconfident or already on the edge?

Rule of thumb: When someone points a gun at you, and says "Do X, or I'll kill you." do X.

That's what I thought. But I'm a little confused. You suggested fighting it out instead of waiting for a wonder. Given the situation though, waiting for a wonder seems to be the only option. And now Pierre has gone and turned the guard nervous and alert.

Maybe I've had him act to rashly. I couldn't think of something better to try though. I'm sorry if I made the situation worse for everybody.

Well, to continue the meta-gaming, he didn't actually say we shouldn't wait for a wonder.. just that combat would be a good thing eventually. So, given that, perhaps we were to wait for some helpful NPC activity that would make bounding over a table and weaponlessly engaging an armed enemy while at -4 to all DX skills a good idea.

Come to think of it, being ransomed can't be that bad, can it?

You're right, it was a stupid idea. My only defense is, that I have a lot of things on my mind right now and didn't get much sleep this week. But I don't want to bore you with my personal problems. I'll try to put more thought into my posts from now on.

You're standing up still when my last plot post takes place. You can take an action during it (you're last, by speed, I think, so it won't change anything that's happened.) You can't quite cover the distance.

Re: [OOC] The Catacombs, hard SF
 

Well, it's us or him now. So Pierre will move towards the guard, close enough to start an AoA next turn. I'll have to sleep over this, but I guess the best he can do is trying to grapple the guard. Assuming Pierre doesn't get shot before he reaches the guard, naturally.

Sorry I haven't posted for a while. Been busy.

I hope I didn't miss too much. x.@
