Stink in Ship's Towers

[sblock=OOC]
According to the text of the SRD, it's not required that the target of the secret message make a sense motive check to understand it, Kenn.

Can I see what the person following me looks like? What they are wearing? How evil they look? :D ... If they are armed?

Kathan gets his message across without difficulty (everyone may read the Spot sblock].

[sblock=ooc]While it seems sensible that an "out-of-the-blue" hidden message might be missed, the rules do seem to say that the intended targets do get it without making a roll, and I'm fine with that.[/sblock]

[sblock=Kathan]The figure following you seems to be humanoid, lightly armored, likely leather armor, but apparently has no weapons in the hands. The figure seems to be female.[/sblock]
 


Kathan slows his pace and addresses the air in front of him.

" If you're looking for an apology for a little rough-housing, you'll be needing to tell us what your interest in all this is being, ' friend ' , "

He rubs his chin, and comes to a stop a within a few paces, turning to glance sideways at their persuer. Kathan also takes a moment to prepare himself in case of a chase.
 

"A jolly jokester, eh?" The woman you've fought yesterday steps into plain sight. "Ya tried to kill me without warning. Which reminds me, freeze fellow, I still got your dang dagger. Pierced me pretty painfully." She winks at Kenn. "I wanna know what your dorky deal is. Ye'r after that eggy Eel as well, that's sure. Not working for a thieves guild I assume, their mindless mobsters have more brain than you do."
 

Shrugging, Kathan replies, " We were not tryin' to kill you, so much as keep you from runnin' away with a lead we needed. Congratulations on your escape from us ' brainless fools ' . "

Relaxing a little, and letting out a long sigh, he continues, " Now that we've been wasting a perfectly good night for gettin' this business done, you can tell us why you're wanting the Eel, and why you want our help. You wouldn't have been following us just now if it weren't bein' so. We could likely use yours as well. "

" Oh, and by the way, Miss, you can call me Kathan, for now. I'm finding it preferably to ' moron ' , ' idiot ' and ' fool ' . "
 

Kenn sticks to his "bad cop" role to Kathan' s "good cop" and mutters something grouchy and indistinct about how he needs larger knives. Please advise if assist another rolls are needed.
 


"Well, I'm sure I'd have been unable to flee with a horridly-hit head, as ya planned. And no, I don't want your help, honey. I just had hoped I'd be able to smugly snatch the Eel away after you found him. Of course, I can friggin forget that now.
Oh, maybe giving back that dagger to your freeze-shouting friend, if he behaves. Ya can call me Cami, if that pleases ya.
"
 

Scratching his head, Kathan says, " All right then, Cami. "

After a moments pause, he continues. " What exactly are your plans for the Eel? I assume he's not being a friend of yours, else I'd be thinking we wouldn't be having this conversation. Might be being that are goals are not at odds. "
