[When Nathaniel calls for one of the all-too familiar meetings regarding cores, he looks pretty unhappy. In fact, he looks like he has some bad news to give. Whatever it is, everyone should come listen, because it's pretty important!]
bakegarasu: (wrong is right)

[personal profile] bakegarasu 2015-04-20 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
Stuff might be hidden there, though. There's a lot of spots where things could jump out.
amphibian: (however hard i pray to remake you mine)

[personal profile] amphibian 2015-04-20 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe, but maybe not, too. We know for sure there's gonna be trouble that way... If we go down the path that looks like it's safe and just keep our guards up, we'll be fine, right?
four_quarts: (Children please.)

[personal profile] four_quarts 2015-04-21 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
Both paths have their merits and potential dangers. Personally, I dislike both options, so I will go along with whatever the rest of you decide.

Just remember, if we do decide on the muddy path, tread carefully; the mud may be deep enough in spots to swallow you whole if you don't.

[Can you tell he doesn't like walking through marshland? Because he really doesn't like walking through marshland.]

[Yes Rob's along for this too. "Safety in numbers" is his thought here.

After being his usual quiet self the whole trip he speaks up.]


We should probably poke the ground ahead of us with sticks or something to make sure it's safe if we take that route.

[Does anybody? Rob sure isn't looking forward to the idea, though he sees the logic in it.]

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-04-22 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Megaera nodded at Rob's idea.]

Of course, poking could disturb beasts under the surface. But so would kicking them, so... We're kind of in trouble either way if there are any here.

The dry path might be the safer choice, as a result...
fireburn: (02)

[personal profile] fireburn 2015-04-22 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
All things being equal I would prefer not to fight in the mud.

[not that a bit of dampness would hinder her firebending that much, but it's the principle of the thing. everyone had brought up fairly good points about the lack of sight and mobility.

but then again, zuko kind of had a point too.]


Assuming we can handle the plants.
amphibian: (the ghost lights)

[personal profile] amphibian 2015-04-22 05:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I'unno... There was a core hunt with some of those weird plants along the way a while ago, and it was really bad for the people who ended up breathing the gas in... [She was there for Jawson's Bog ages ago and it was some shit.] But! But we've made it through marshes just fine before, and that was with a ton of luggage and we got attacked then! I'm sure we can do it again!
daughterofursa: (headscratch)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2015-04-22 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's only a little mud, guys, quit being worried about getting dirty. Also her crush is backing her up, not that she's like... giving Aoi's vote more weight just because she likes her or anything BUT ANYWAY Zuko is not inclined to change her mind.]

We're a large enough group the small animals have been avoiding us. I think we'll notice anything bigger.

[Zuko draws one of her swords to help clearing the spots where the grass is thick and starts forward into the mud. High boots were an excellent choice here not that she has any other shoes.]
twinked_witch: (Attack!)

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-04-23 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
[As the spikes start shooting, Megaera steps forward. Then...]

Mage armor!

[A glow forms around her body, helping to reduce the impact of the spikes hitting her - and thus not anyone else.]

Need to torch that source or something!
fireburn: (12)

[personal profile] fireburn 2015-04-23 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
[azula does her best to get out of the way of the spikes. it's not as graceful as she might've been without MUD on this way she didnt want to go, but it's okay. torching is definitely her specialty but this whole limit has her wondering if they shouldn't conserve. she casts a look over at zuko.]

Sister - would you like to do the honors?
bakegarasu: (determination of the strong)

[personal profile] bakegarasu 2015-04-23 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
[Otoha darts out of the way, and draws his sword. If they want to conserve...}

I can take it out if we need to get up close.

[Speed's always been his thing. If he can go fast enough to dodge around gunfire, he can probably handle a plant.]
dragonsorcsandwolves: (Default)

[personal profile] dragonsorcsandwolves 2015-04-23 11:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Rob's general lack of speed, combined with his poor reaction time against fast ranged attacks and the mud, doesn't help this situation very much; one of the spikes grazes him on the left side of his rib cage, passing cleanly between two ribs and leaving a deep gash. He lets out a pained grunt but maintains his grip on his sword and remains alert for further attacks, wishing he had a decent ranged attack option.]
daughterofursa: (over shoulder)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2015-04-23 01:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Zuko deflects a spike with her sword, frowning. She gets what Azula is doing by asking her to take care of it, but she's not going to argue and with Rob getting hit, she's not going to wait for Otoha either.

She blasts the plant with a fireball and turns to Rob.]


How bad were you hit?
dragonsorcsandwolves: (Default)

[personal profile] dragonsorcsandwolves 2015-04-23 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[With the immediately-visible threat gone and Zuko's question, Rob takes the time to examine the wound, delicately pulling a scrap of fabric from it. It's certainly bleeding profusely, but it didn't hit anything vital. It hurts, but he has a high enough pain tolerance that he doesn't look too inconvenienced by it.]

I'll live. Guess this's as good a time as any to see exactly how well these potions work, eh?

[So saying, he pulls out a bottle and quaffs the potion, then clenches his teeth as his eyes widen. The blood rapidly clots and the wound begins visibly closing. It's taking its time, and will likely take a couple of minutes to fully heal, but it's working and he isn't bleeding nearly as much as he was before. There's no immediate danger to his health beyond the surrounding plant and animal life trying to kill them all, though he's still clenching his teeth.]

Accelerates the pain of healing too. Makes sense I guess. We can keep moving. The effect should last five minutes, so any other injuries I get'll start healing on their own. Might as well get my money's worth out of the potion, right?
four_quarts: (I fear for your sanity.)

[personal profile] four_quarts 2015-04-24 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
[...Yeah, Ghaleon's just going to have one of those gas masks ready, because knowing this group, they'll decide that pressing on is a fantastic idea, and he sure as hell isn't risking getting exposed to what might be a hallucinogen. Having the sole medic be incapacitated (or a potential threat) would ruin everyone's day, you know.

He's just going to be quiet, subtly keeping an eye on Rob for any signs he might need any assistance. ...Well, and keep an eye out for giant monsters, because as any seasoned traveler knows, an adventure party in a swamp will inevitably encounter a giant monster.]

amphibian: (it's raining sunshine; when you smile)

[personal profile] amphibian 2015-04-24 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Any attempts to move forward will be met with Aoi reaching to pull people back by the arm or shirt back, if she can grab them in time.]

We'd better wait for it to clear... [JAWSON'S BOG WAS SOME SHIT]
daughterofursa: (thinking)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2015-04-24 08:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[Look, Ghaleon, they can be responsible adult-like people. Zuko isn't about to charge on through those suspicious clouds of smoke either.

At least, not without testing first by pressing a gas mask to her face and edging into the thinning haze. These things are supposed to keep them safe, right?]

[personal profile] twinked_witch 2015-04-25 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
Best to take our time. Take a drink while the air's fresh...
bakegarasu: (we all find ourselves)

[personal profile] bakegarasu 2015-04-25 08:58 am (UTC)(link)
[Otoha inches forward, frowning at the gas masks. Does he need one?]

Should I test it?
four_quarts: (I fear for your sanity.)

[personal profile] four_quarts 2015-04-25 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[Thank you for being sensible, Meg. You are earning many respect points with Ghaleon for that.]

...Only test it if you put on one of the gas masks. At this point it would be an unnecessary risk to do otherwise.

[Please no repeats of the pooping and yelling incident or even anything similar...]
daughterofursa: (irritated)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2015-04-26 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Zuko listened well enough that she's actually wearing long sleeves for once, but it looks like her fingers are going a little numb. She tries to shake out her free hand once she's past the cloud.]

...it still does something even if you don't breathe it in. We'd better just avoid it.

[Which means they'll have to keep moving slowly, ugh. At least no monsters are bothering them, yet.. She expects that'll change once they reach the core.]
