Message: <blockquote data-quote="Nazhkandrias" data-source="post: 3879066" data-attributes="member: 50521">Felix is not visibly panicked by the presence of the soldiers, as the others are. He idly comments on their presence. "Military, perhaps. The bearing suggests an organization of some sort. Strange that they would be gathering in a square." Without warning, Roxanne panics. He holds out his hand, gesturing for her to calm down. In a soothing voice, he attempts to calm her. "Roxanne, Roxanne, slow down, I beg of you! You assume that they are here to kill. How are you certain of this? They may just be out on patrol. Acknowledged, it is strange of them to be present, but I am sure that there is a logical explanation for all of this." Caramip announces that she is going to find out what is going on by talking to some of the soldiers, and Felix nods silently in agreement as she walks off. "She has the right idea. Might I suggest that we find out what is going on before anybody panics and runs? If you dash from a scene, that would seem rather suspicious, no? Enough to draw attention to yourself, and, apparently being a woman with something to hide, I would deem that most... unwise. Excuse me." Felix pushes back his chair, stands up, and strides up to Caramip, walking next to her. "Caramip. I will be accompanying you. Hostile or not, I'm still curious as to what these men are up to." Felix pauses for a moment, slowing down momentarily. "Caramip, I still must urge that we use caution here. They are not in uniform, they might not be soldiers. Be alert." Felix ponders his sudden paranoia. Why am I worried? I've done nothing illegal. Those others must be getting to me. Is everyone holding their own dirty little secrets? Ah well, in time, in time. In time, all will be revealed, I suppose. He smiles.[sblock=OOC]I think that I'll try for a Diplomacy check (<a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1361572" target="_blank">1d20+9=29</a>, I swear to god, I'm just lucky) on the "soldiers" (if they're open to sharing what they're up to). Caramip, if you want to Aid Another on the check, that would be most welcome. I don't think that they're necessarily hostile towards me, all I want to know is what's going on. Should they prove hostile, I have a contingency plan. I'll get to that if it comes up. Relax, people - we're adventurers, we're perfectly normal! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />[/sblock]</blockquote>
