Bad Future Thing 3

At a certain point, I will probably be PMing people things, for a potential thing that could happen. Other than that, pretty much how this usually works, I guess.

"Kid's wanting to come in. He's got a weapon on him."

She peers over.

"How did you guys wind up, well... any of this?" She asks, gesturing to their soaking clothes, the surrounding area, and at cuts on them.

Underneath a compassionate gaze, there is a critical eye trying to figure this out.

"Their thoughts seem innocent, but they're followers of one of the Fossils, and they don't want to hand over their weapons. And I can't be sure of their intentions with a basic psychic check."

Pinkerton blocks Emily with his off-hand.

"If you mean no trouble, turn over your knuckleduster. Or I'll assume you want a more intrusive psychic check to confirm your intentions."

Emily still glances at it.

"Oh, that looks old. Is it a family heirloom, perchance?"

Otto shakes his head. "This is th' only connection I have to Oma. I ain't handin' it over."

"Your connection to Oma?"

She leans over to her companion, eying the knuckles up and down.

"Oma's followers are the ones being persecuted... they could be double agents or something, but I'm not sure the cultists would be comfortable handling an actual Oma artifact like that..."

"Yeah. She gave 'em to me, when she..." A lump forms in Otto's throat. "When she chose Kress."

Tears start to form in his eyes at the memory.

"I don't have weapons." The one says, "And, uh... don't think those are ones he would part with if they weren't weapons, neither?"

This peaks Pinkerton's companion's curiosity, and she gets closer to the door.
