HEIST UPDATE

[claudiometer]

Just when I thought we maybe wouldn't need it. [That part's in a muttered tone, so Claudia probably didn't mean to broadcast it.]

Wrinkle in the plan, guys, Beatrice moved the amulet. She made a really big deal about storing it under guard in the top of her tower, so my guess is it's anywhere but the tower. We don't have much time to work on this. Thoughts?

My first one, frankly, is 'tase the bejeezus out of her and loot her while she's unconscious,' but there's no guarantee that would turn up clues.

Oh! That's right! People can do that now! You should try it then, Mr Altair! I'll save stabbing for if that doesn't work.

[theflyingone]

Since we do not know too much about her motives, that could draw innocents into unnecessary conflict. I think we should refrain from killing her for now.

[happyhalloween]

Uu. That makes sense, I guess. Let me know if we change our minds?

[theflyingone]

[ He is so unsure about any of this; she's probably younger than he was when he started training to kill people--Wait-- ]

Alright. In that case, we would need to convene again to form a different plan. It would require more than just someone willing to kill.

[happyhalloween]

Okay. I might go talk to some ghosts then if we don't need me and my hidden knife.

[theflyingone]

Yes, that's proven to be a useful ability.

[happyhalloween]

And ghosts are fun!

[theflyingone]

I... Were you there for the last Jaunt?

[ It's an honest question. ]

[happyhalloween]

Yes. I was a ghost then. But just because the Harrogate ghosts weren't fun doesn't mean that other ghosts can't be fun.

[theflyingone]

I suppose they can... But be careful.

[happyhalloween]

I will be!

[Maria is actually never very careful. Sorry.]
