Quite a few of us seem to think talking to her while drawing her further out is a good idea. Think it's around 5 or 6?

Alright, I'll ping him then. Let me know if I do it wrong. XD
@Static: User Action: Keep talking to her and draw her away from the house. Maybe the muck will slow her down and you can talk some sense into her!

@Razelie: Yeah, I've actually had this conversation in another thread. It loads for some and not for others so we've determined that the source of the problem is probably the image hosting site. In either case, nothing really to be done about it. Thanks for the heads up though. ^-^

Why did it get so quiet? Where is everyone?

I was just wondering the same thing...

Do we still need five people to ping Alice and agree with her action?

Is that what we have to do?

I concur with @AliceinZombieland's course of action.

Scene Four

[User AliceinZombieland's action, forged by the community, has been decided upon. Tale altered.]

"You don't have to do things like this to make people like you," Static tried to reason with her while floating over the muck. "They're horrible things and people will hate you. You don't want that, do you Duchess?" He offered a gentle smile and she seemed to pause for a moment, but then snarled in annoyance.

"Shut up, shut up, shut up! What could you possibly know? You're just an infuriating little brat! You should be dead! DEAD I SAY!" She took a running step towards him, but the muck of the swamp immediately slowed her down. Cursing, she fought to lumber and splash forward. "But wait..." She suddenly stopped and stood perfectly still which caused Static to look at her in confusion. "They can't be my precious babies if they're dead. They can't be my children then, can they? But if I eat them, they're always with me-" She let out a scream as the cleaver shook violently, and for a brief moment the two Guardians could see her breath form a wispy face that faded away like smoke.

"What was that...? Duchess, are you-" Static gasped as the woman abruptly leapt from her spot like a frog and plunged towards him with the cleaver still vibrating wildly. It was letting out a constant hum like metal rubbing together, and the sound filled the area with dread.

I Have to Think Fast!


Now's the perfect time for a counter, isn't it?


If I repel her, she might be hurt badly... but if that's the only way...


None yet. Write your own and convince users it should be here!

I knew he should have tried to get the cleaver away while he talked. >_<

What's our next best action?

This is getting serious...

There is something haunting in the light of the moon;
It has all the dispassionateness of a disembodied soul, and something of its inconceivable mystery.

Voltie — Damned Posted 6 years ago ( 2018/05/9 20:11:11 )


I've got nothing. I kinda feel like we're doomed.
Unless perhaps he can move and make her fall into the swamp?

Just because you don't see me doesn't mean I'm not here. I'm a lurker.

We should parry and disarm! We're reaching her I think. We need to get that cleaver away from her!
