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.
The boost was welcome, and both Layla and Alizée felt the boost enhance their chains. Namely, the chains grew burning white, siphoning the energy off the Starving Dog twice as fast. The dog struggled, but the duo was prepared.
”Hold on tight to him, Layla!” Alizée growled out, gnarled hands wrapped tight around her chains.
Well. At least, they thought they were prepared.
When the Starving Dog hit the floor and started rolling towards Layla, she saw her life flash across her eyes. The chains were dropped, and she narrowly escaped, her foot getting clipped, causing her to spin wildly and slide into the floor. Alizée was there in an instant, her own chains dropped from the dog as she scooped Layla in her arms and backed off.
”Aislin, now!”
”Don’t gotta tell me twice!” Aislin called out as each of her hands clenched into fists, and she brought them down in a sharp motion. The boosting helped immensely, and the entire ceiling came away easily. Chunks of stone and concrete fell on the dog, boulders cracking the tiles and sending up waves of dust. In a matter of seconds, the dog was entirely consumed by a mountain of heavy stones, piled up near to the ceiling.
”Take that, y-ya bastard!” Aislin hollered, gagging and choking on dust.
@LanaStorm Good question! It's free to infiltrate and spy, so as long as Bella doesn't/didn't kill them, they come right back home to you to report. The only cost for Personnel is when you attack/claim a district, and when you upgrade a district. Then you lose Personnel. :>
I think I'm only waiting on @Herald and @evierose for posts? I'm going to start working on the IC post, but it will probably be at least 3 days before it is posted. Got a collab I am working on with ERode that will be added in. ^^
Post is up! Herald, if you want to do a collab of the fight, I'm totally down.
Sporko, Qia, if you want some back and forth with Le Frey or VV, I'm down as well. Theis will probably be the last round before we skip down to the next morning. :>
