First time making samosas from scratch; also making fried pakoras, fruit salad, and daal. I can't wait to try it all~

Maybe I'll play Cyberpunk 2077 some more. My brother maxed out my character a year and a half ago. Haven't seen him since. Miss him.

”Mr. Dawson, why don't you have a seat?” He said, gesturing to the brown leather chair he had his hand resting on.
The men behind Adel stepped forward. They each placed a firm hand around his upper arms, half-guiding, half-dragging Adel to the seat. If Adel struggled in any way, their plan would have been quickly subduing him with a blow to the cheek - but besides tensing up, the man didn’t fight.
They shoved Adel into the seat, twisting it so it faced the mirror. Vincent still had that smirk on his face as he picked up a bowl of shaving cream and an applicator brush on the counter.
Slowly, methodically, Vincent applied shaving cream to Adel's face while speaking.
”Now, my men tell me that you and your spies have decided to make it your home in White Pine. Not that I care too much about that.”
He set down the bowl, picking out a barber's blade instead. He opened it, the fresh gleam of a clean, sharp blade within.
“What I really care about, though, is who set you up to do this.”
The blade pressed against Adel's neck as Vincent leaned over, staring at the man through the mirror.
"A million times I have done this charade. The moment people figure it out, I get the boot." she thought.
"But don't you want to see the fear in their eyes when they see who you really are...? Don't you want dominion of this place, just like how you were unchallenged in Vaal Kastrix?" said the Voice.
Ciara scoffed, immediately thinking of Gulliver and Valen. "I'd love to wipe the smirk off their faces."
"It starts by building a rumor. A rumor of power. This could be the place to start."
She took a deep breath, narrowing her eyes resolutely at the Undermage. "Head Advisor, with all due respect, you have no right to ask me about my intentions. If you want answers..."
She stood from her seat, rising to her full height.
@ERode Oh yes that's true. She's not an official attack, she's a distraction....
Ahhhhhhh, now I'm kinda going back and forth here. I don't want to tie anyone up in a scene when they can easily move ahead in another scene. So, if it's alright, @Little Bird, I'm going to say that people can still move and use their resources even if they're being attacked or if there is some conflict in their districts.
A way to make it fair is to have enough NPCs to handle anything that comes your way, and to attack as much as you want with the resources you have during the round.
If Asterion attacks 93rd Street, Glyde can defend as well as do any number of other actions alongside. Glyde could even send NPCs to sabotage Nickel. (Not attack, cause thats expensive, but definitly sabotage). :p
@SporkoBug Good question! Ghost Corp and the Wilds have a mutual enemy: Umbra. But the Wilds and the Wild King have killed many Ghost Corps before.... Ghost Corp does not actively hunt Wilds, instead purchasing Wild hearts from Lawless.
@Herald Naahhhhhh, that was perfect. These are easy scores meant to be done quick. I'll write up a little something saying the rest of the gangs in Grey Square have fled. Very, very satisfying post to read. totally not sweating that this guy is gonna be going after Vincent...
For more expensive districts, I'll probably make them a little more sweaty to take over. So in that case, just PM me you want to take over a Comfortable/Rich/Industrial, and I'll collab out the resistance for ya. :>
@Little Bird Hmmm... then yes, we could say if you are being attacked, your resources are tied up and you must be in a state of peace in order to use your resources. 🤔 I think that sounds more fair. What do you say?
I always figured one could accomplish more than one thing utilizing NPCs, like how evierose handled a reaction to a kidnapping and a meeting at the same time. 🤔
Yeaaaahhh, Arrowfell is quite close to the heart for me. I will say we've shaped this in ways I could have only imagined, though, and am looking forward to the story continuing stronger and greater than ever. :>
