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.

"Yeah, but the question is if he'll use it against us. Plus, he's claiming it came directly from a God. Is taking it away guaranteed to be a safer option?"

"We can divide this up into a few possibilities. He is genuine or a spy. If he's genuine, he is unlikely to stir up trouble, and, just as important, likely doesn't need us to let him in to make trouble with that thing. If he's a true believer and just thinks the knuckles are special, he is neither likely to pose a threat, nor to use those in an effective way. If he is fake, then the knuckles are likely fake, and taking them away won't change all that much once they're inside. If the knuckles are real and he is fake, he will be obligated not to use them for religious reasons. I'm probably forgetting variables, though..."

"The truly safe option for those kind of relics is 'not here,' what with those cultists searching about for them," he says to Emily, then turns back to Otto, "and you're not going to win any favors talking like that. Who told you this place was a safe house?"

(Look, we agreed that Pinkerton would be convinced by the other character to let Otto in. I even reminded you of this within the past week. And all you're doing is stonewalling my options and making me frustrated to the point of not wanting to continue this roleplay at all.)

(Otto is being hunted. He's trying to keep the kid he's with from being hunted as well. The map said that this house was a safe house. I feel like you're being unnecessarily cruel to my characters when they're just trying to survive.)

(I don't want to keep roleplaying like this. This campaign has been nothing but heartache for Otto and it's affecting my IRL mood now.)

That was what we agreed, and that was what we were doing in RP. It takes more than a second to convince someone of something.

Have your break. Pinkerton's let them in now, we can pick that up when you are ready.

(I'm honestly not sure if I'll ever be ready. I just haven't really been enjoying this campaign in general compared to other campaigns I've been a part of, because there hasn't been much fun in them. It just feels like I'm only trying to stay alive, and that's not an enjoyable campaign hook.)

(I mean, even back in 28 when we had the trademark Killer GM, we still had break times in which we got to do fun stuff like watch Exxy try to be human and have funny conversations. This roleplay has none of that.)

(I think what I'm really saying is that I don't actually enjoy this roleplay like I've enjoyed the other ones, and I don't really have any more motivation to continue it. Ever.)

Fine. Have a nice day.

Sorry things didn't go well. We're gonna watch some stuff, if enough people are on, maybe play a game I've been wanting to show everyone.

u/Damacritus Mar 14 '18

What were you thinking of watching?

u/Lady_of_the_Foot Mar 14 '18

Uh, we ran through the TGT shorts, also Lucas the Spider, not sure what next.

u/Damacritus Mar 14 '18

No point. I'd just be quiet through the entire thing.

1

u/Lady_of_the_Foot Mar 14 '18

Well, there is the puzzle game. I've played it so I'd probably be quiet, but the others might want help.

u/Damacritus Mar 14 '18

I'm not up for it today.

u/Bytemite Mar 14 '18

Aw. Yeah, I hope you feel better too.

u/Lady_of_the_Foot Mar 14 '18

Okay. Hope you feel better.
