Tetsu - The bath

Stepping into the bath, Tetsu feels an almost overpowering urge to fall asleep, quickly readjusting his tirdness and shrugging off the urge by the thought of a hot bath and then climbing into clean sheets, he settles into the bath which while very hot is still soothing and reaxing. Almost forgetting that he is bathing, Tetsu quickly realizes he has been soaking for a long time as the water is slowly growing tepid. Getting out of the tub, he heads back to the bedchamber proper where he finds a small tray of cheese/fruit/and cordials sitting close to the bed. The room is now dark except for the light of several candles and the ray of moonlinght coming thru the arrow ports and landing directly on the bed.

Angelo - Conversation with Thaddeus

Scratching his head Thaddeus replies "knowing him, it is proably someplace close and in cash. He lacks the wit to hide it properly and his greed would dictate that he would want it close to count and protect"

Looking at the barmaid he continues "Maybe, though she is not a Madame by any means. She just helps the girls who have no other place ot go or trade to follow. She is well th ought of around her being one of the older residents, falling upon hard times. If she were to agree to oversee that aspect, you might well get a sizable number of the girls to agree to work for her. She is tought but fair and has a good heart, and in that profession that goes a long way to winning the girls loyalty"

"Well, I sense something about her that appeals to me. The problem with recruiting her sort is that she may balk at some of the things an organization like we are discussing sometimes does. It may be necessary to insulate some parts of the organization from others." As they talk Angelo continues to edit the music he is writing. When he is happy with it he passes it over to Thaddeus. It does not call Roderick by name, but instead refers to 'Fister' as the main character who cheats, burns his own place and cries wolf about wizards as well as doing various unlikely bits of buffonery in the song. Anyone hearing the story of the events of the evening will recognise Roderick. "Do you think this little bit of foolishness might help sway opinion against the 'stone' as well make him angry, perhaps angry enough to make unpopular decisions if such a song became popular?"

Tetsu will eat the food and drink the cordial, and then settle in for a well deserved night's rest.

OOC: I'll be out of pocket until Sunday morning sometime -- we're going to the lake. If you need to play Tetsu/make any rolls for him, that's fine with me. Just post the results so I'll know what happened.

Angelo - Conservation with Thaddeus

As Thaddeus reads the lyrics before him, Angelo quickly notices him taping his fingers on the table in the symboliance of a beat. Soon he observes a good natured grin appera on Thaddeus face which quikcly turns into mirth. By the time he is finished reading it, the fingers have long since stoped tapping and he is holding back tears as he laughs.

"Yes, this will do very nicely, care to perform it for us now?"

"Sure, I'll give it a test run. I'd like to do a little more work on it, but its ready for a first playing."

OOC: instramental accompanyment (1d20+7=16) is good enough for a +2. Roderick's song (1d20+11=30) Damn, is a 30 good enough to make an impression?

Angelo - Rodericks Song

Angleo starts his song while the room is still loud and full of coversation, as he contiues playing, the conversation and noise starts to soften and soon the room is silent. As Angelo moves into the main them, slight laughs and fits of coughing begin to be heard throughout the room. By the second chours most in the room have moist eyes from tyirng to hold back the tears of laughter and a quick look of the room shows, several people with their head on the table pounding it with their fists.

Sensing his auidence mood, Angelo begins to repeat the beginning of the song that many had not heard due to the noise. By the time he gets to the oringial interste point, the room has joined him in the chorues, and seveal people he observes have left the room.

Heading the audience demands for yet a third rendition, whith offers of a hard earned silver piece. Completing the third rendition, Angelo has the room laughing and joking with one another with a few patrons literially rolling on the floor in fits of laughter. As he accepting the pats on the back and mugs of ale being offerd him a voice says

"Where is the dead man who dares to make fun of me? Cork, note all who are in this room laughing and we will deal with them after I deal with this fatherellss scum"

Turning to the voice, Angelo sees Roderick and a band of 5 men enter the room with clubs and daggers drawn.

OOC: What are Angelo's options for exits, including windows. Would it be possible to duck behind a curtain, table or the bar and quickly cast invisibility?
