No worries. I've been doing other stuff today.

Alright, if possible Tuck inquires about:
Maybe that's too much, so feel free to drop some if that works better.
Re-reading the IC thread, I am reminded that we were on our way to the Aceron estate when we were interrupted by the doppelganger. Note to self: Bring that up when Tuck rejoins the others, so that we can inquire at the Acerons soon.
- Does the staff know any rumours about the Renegade, his motives or possible hangouts? (Unlikely, but good to ask anyway.)
- How do the staff see their futures in the City, both professionally (as in: the welfare of the family and estate, and their employment) and personally (plans to move away, family circumstances, etc.)?
- Do the staff know about the missing guards (Nathaniel Aceron, Geoffrey Suggitt), or perhaps what their families are like?
- Tuck mentions the names of the three assassins (Teresa, Shylock, didn't catch the name of the third one I believe) and their possible hideout (The Crossed Candles) casually to see if anyone recognizes them.
Maybe that's too much, so feel free to drop some if that works better.

Okay, I'll think about how I'm going to respond to your questions, but it likely won't be until tomorrow that I reply. Today is dishes, laundry, recycling, and then going to physio. Currently icing my back and hip. 
And, no, I don't think that's too many questions, but the staff isn't likely to know anything about the assassins. I don't think the third assassin was mentioned by name. I'll have to check. Later.

No hurry! And I imagined the staff would know little about those subjects, but who knows, one can get lucky, right?

Thanks. Today was tough. My hip is aching and I need to get to bed. Now if only my mind would settle down, I'd be out light a light. Whoa! It's past 1 A.M.No hurry! And I imagined the staff would know little about those subjects, but who knows, one can get lucky, right?

Time differences, eh? It's nearly 10 in the morning here.
Take care of your hip and back!

FYI, my next post won't likely be until Monday. Woke up today feeling cramped (damn legs!) and sore. I have to go over to my mom's place tomorrow.

New post is up!
I need initiative rolls for Breva and Tim. I'll roll for Vinccenzo, the two regulars, the the foes a bit later. Need to eat.
EDIT: I also have to get my prescriptions, so I'll be back after 3 P.M. MST.

Ok, so here is Tim's line of reasoning:
1) Tim told Mani that he would deal harshly with any escape attempts.
2) Mani's encouragement "Paint each other to death!" clearly demonstrates that he would desire the opportunity to escape.
3) Tim knows that he CANNOT allow Mani to fall into Phelix's hands.
4) The fact that obtaining Mani is one of Phelix's goals is a GREAT incentive for Tim to kill Mani, just to prevent his capture by these guards.
5) The fact that Phelix would experiment on Mani after interrogation, means that Tim killing Mani now, in a quick, humane manner (Coup De Grace), would save Mani the excruciating pain of torture. (Which is yet another incentive to kill Mani NOW.)
HOWEVER:
1) Tim also knows that getting to the Palace is the priority.
2) Tim feels confident that he could carry Mani in his free hand, and fend off the guards long enough to get a good, running start.
CAVEAT:
1) If Tim flees now with Mani, he is leaving his friends to face the guards without his help. That does NOT sit well with Tim.
2) If Tim stays and fights it out, without killing Mani first, then there is a chance that a) Mani will escape, or b) one of the other guards will grab Mani and run off with him.
SO... CONCLUSION:
Tim is about 75% kill Mani, 25% fight it out / try to protect Mani.
What do you guys think?
