OOC: Was that Thomas trying to call me? I hope so becuse my next post is based on my assumption, if I am wrong just ignore my post

You are correct in that assumption. (good rping btw, nice.)

[Rest of the posts is nice and I'm at my GF's so the scans.. if the scanner will cooperate will be due tomorrow... hopefully that is. It aren't essential things but the original articles are just great flavor IMHO. Will move/resolve the game along in my next post (due in the next 5 minutes)]
 

Ray and Ross get back into their car and head back for the hotel, but as you leave town you catch a glimpse of a mysterious Native American watching them from the distance. As soon as you take your eyes of him for a moment he’s gone and leaves you with nothing but an awkward feeling deep inside…

That evening, as you all (All all you that is) have supper in the Valley View Restaurant, Ross happens to make eye contact with a man who is dining alone a few tables away and staring at him intently. Recognizing him from the photograph as Maximilian Delaney he appears to be about 70 years old, mostly bald, and dressed in a dark gray business suit. He is tall and lanky, with piercing blue eyes—which lock onto Mark who is now looking back at him.
The room falls suddenly silent as Delaney and Ross lock gazes. A moment later Ross realizes that time has stopped around him: His friends and the other guests frozen mid-bite, their food and utensils suspended in front of their faces. Only Delaney and Ross are moving… Delaney breaks off eye contact, then ignores Ross as he sips his soup. His voice, however, echoes inside Ross’s head.

“You did well to come here,” the voice says calmly. “You have done all that I have commanded, and I am well pleased. But now you must leave. You cannot begin to phantom the secrets of this valley, and nothing good can come from your interference.”

Before Ross can act, the scene returns to normal and time flows as usual once more. The table where Delaney was sitting is now empty, though his soup bowl and whine glass are still there.
 

Ross stands upright so fast that when his knees lock into place they throw the chai back about 3 feet and it lands on the ground with a loud mettalic clang. He grabs his napkin and wipes his face quickly throwing the napkin onto what was left of his food.

"T-T-Time to go! Now!" Ross says as he heads back up to his room to pack all his things and get the hell out of dodge!
 

James slowly raises an eyebrow in confusion.

"Is there something wrong with his food?" James says as he studies it intently, "On the other hand did anyone fart? Something certainly put him off his food though, who did it and what did they do?"

James looks around the room for possible reasons for Ross's sudden departure.
 

[There is nothing in the room James might think of as a possible reason.]

[Post your activities for the rest of the evening please... like in what your reactions are gonna be on this and you talk it out a bit. When something might happen or not, I'll resolve it or else just let the night pass... in some peace and quite (finally)]
