Single Thread RP The Last ROLEPLAY Post Wins

[The Silence]

<Noted.>
<...Maybe we should find someplace where he can't watch from above either then...>
Dark gets moving, feeling around for a good, secluded place to practice.

"{That works.}"

"...Father Garundel then."
Sarah tilts her head slightly, but doesn't seem to care.
"...Well. Lead the way, leader."
Draucon shoots her a glare, as Draucon looks over at the blood trail, looking in the direction it leads, expecting Garundel to lead them that way.

Eve awkwardly starts flying, a bit unused to Pol being on her shoulder while she flies.

With a calm sweep of his slightly glowing hand, a golden portal opens in front of the group, the other end appearing about 100 feet ahead.

"We'll be portal hopping to cut our walking time down significantly. I hope all of you are to jog for a good few minutes at least."

Garundel then begins to jog through the portal, appearing out of the other end while already conjuring a similar set of portals up ahead.

Seraph awkwardly speed-walks through.

 

[Esther]

(You have no idea how tempted I am to have Vani nearly get bonked by accident while Dark is practicing)
(Esther, I give no guarantees that I won't respond with a Pulse Bow or North Pole shot before I'm told to quit it.)
(that'skindofthepoint)

 

[Streyll]

(was going to get to that, sorry)


"If it comes to it.. which we can assume it will, as it always does.."

"Ah, well...
Eh, sure, I'll come."
And so Evi would follow.

 

[Banana_=P]

"{That works.}"

Dark continues looking around for a bit, thoughts silent. Probably trying to calm himself down.

With a calm sweep of his slightly glowing hand, a golden portal opens in front of the group, the other end appearing about 100 feet ahead.

"We'll be portal hopping to cut our walking time down significantly. I hope all of you are to jog for a good few minutes at least."

Garundel then begins to jog through the portal, appearing out of the other end while already conjuring a similar set of portals up ahead.

“Nothing I can’t handle…”
Draucon just starts jogging after Father Garundel through the portal, Sarah following suit at a similar pace.

Eve flies through with Pol, who just now is starting to wake up.

 

[Esther]

(You have no idea how tempted I am to have Vani nearly get bonked by accident while Dark is practicing)
(Esther, I give no guarantees that I won't respond with a Pulse Bow or North Pole shot before I'm told to quit it.)

(I hereby ask for permission to do this)

 

[Streyll]

(I hereby ask for permission to do this)

(I think maybe? But I think up to Banana?)

 

[The Silence]

(I hereby ask for permission to do this)

(if you want to take the risk for them to have their consciousness swept away into the streams of nameless dead in the Coral.. then sure.

It also has the consistency of plasma, so being "bonked" by it might mean severe burns or limb loss.)

Father Garundel, still silently jogging, opens the next portal, another hundred-or-so feet deeper into the woods, making his way through it as well.

 

[Streyll]

Meanwhile, from the Daybreak portal would be sounds of complaining, before a rather tall anthro eastern dragon steps out from it.

 

[Banana_=P]

(I hereby ask for permission to do this)

(I don’t mind either way.)

Father Garundel, still silently jogging, opens the next portal, another hundred-or-so feet deeper into the woods, making his way through it as well.

Sarah and Draucon keep up the pace, Eve slowing down a bit.

However, Pol then takes off from Eve’s shoulder, having just woken up.
“…Eve? Where are we going?”
“To investigate the…weird guy’s…blood trail, I think?”
“…Ok!”

Meanwhile, from the Daybreak portal would be sounds of complaining, before a rather tall anthro eastern dragon steps out from it.

A hedgehog can be seen skittering the floor along it, as the portal snaps shut behind them.

The pterodactyl bows to the two.
P: “Madame lightning, and…Edge, was it?”
H: “…s-sir yes sir!”
The hedgehog gets up on their hind legs to salute.

 

[The Silence]

Garundel doesn't seem to be slowing down... working on yet another portal..

Seraph squats down before firing the thrusters on the back of his calves, boosting through both in one rapid dash.

H: “…s-sir yes sir!”
The hedgehog gets up on their hind legs to salute.

"I swear to—"
Lightning sighs.

 

[Banana_=P]

"I swear to—"
Lightning sighs.

The pterodactyl looks up, sighing softly, before leaning to the side of them to check for the portal behind them. Nodding, they look back at the new arrivals.
Pterodactyl (new hex colour): "...Alright, 3 in total, as planned."
Edge (new hex colour): "...wh-where's u-um...Sarah?"
"Off travelling with a part of the group that's off to solve a..."more pressing threat", if I recall his words correctly."
"...w-well, we h-have it f-from here..."
"...The portal closed behind you two."
As if on cue, another portal opens up next to the pterodactyl. They look it over, and then look back to Lightning and Edge, before saluting.
"...Heading back to base now."

The pterodactyl then goes in through the portal, with that closing behind him.

Garundel doesn't seem to be slowing down... working on yet another portal..

Seraph squats down before firing the thrusters on the back of his calves, boosting through both in one rapid dash.

Pol and Eve, the latter no longer having to fly upright, pick up the pace, catching up to Garundel.

Draucon and Sarah bump into each other by accident as they jog after Garundel, both pushing off each other and glaring daggers at each other.


Dark, meanwhile, sort of just whistles to himself.

 

[Streyll]

Lightning sighs, then starts trying to catch up with the others.

 

[Banana_=P]

Lightning sighs, then starts trying to catch up with the others.

Edge jumps, about to say something, but then decides to let Lightning go.
"...I-I'll just be...here...!"
She crawls back and then looks around at who else is left at the base, awkwardly looking around.

 

[Esther]

(if you want to take the risk for them to have their consciousness swept away into the streams of nameless dead in the Coral.. then sure.

(I did say nearly.)
(Again, no guarantees that I won't respond with a pulse bow shot immediately.)

 

[Banana_=P]

Dark continues looking around for a secluded area to himself.

 

[The Silence]

Dark continues looking around for a secluded area to himself.

Such a spot should be pretty easy to find..

______________________

Garundel just continues the process in complete silence.. the group now starting to go up a slope, having reached the edge of the forest with snow-tipped mountains ahead.

Seraph is now just hovering above the ground, slowly boosting forwards.

 

[Banana_=P]

Such a spot should be pretty easy to find..

Dark eventually comes to a stop near a rock formation under a glade of trees, sighing softly in relief.
<…Well. Here we are.>
Dark immediately feels around to make sure he’s alone there.

Garundel just continues the process in complete silence.. the group now starting to go up a slope, having reached the edge of the forest with snow-tipped mountains ahead.

Pol glances at Garundel, curious about the silence, while Eve’s too busy doing her best to keep up as she flies.

"{Well.. tell me when you're ready to begin.}"

Pol glances at Garundel, curious about the silence, while Eve’s too busy doing her best to keep up as she flies.

And so the group continues up the mountain.. the air beginning to grow much colder..

 

[Banana_=P]

"{Well.. tell me when you're ready to begin.}"

Seeing no one so far, Dark nods to nothing in particular.
<...Alright. Let's begin.>

Avari may also feel another presence, Xard, mentally...surfacing, as if to "watch" Dark as he practices.

And so the group continues up the mountain.. the air beginning to grow much colder..

Pol and Eve shiver a bit, while Sarah and Draucon don't seem to notice.
