... And of course Herik comes in at the last second and diverts Chompy's attention. Madison couldn't help but roll her eyes at the display, because, while Herik was nice, he was just too nice. Though it could have been that he interpreted the situation as she wanted Chompy to kill the bitch, Madison didn't intend on having Chompy kill her. That she would get the point and use her fancy teleportation abstraction to buzz off. Madison rolled her eyes again as more people came - Lyss, Grace, and Quinn. As per usual, Madison focused her attention on Lyss because those two weren't... helping.

Lyss seemed to be fully intending on letting this weirdo into the Coven, even though she keeps going on these insane little rants right in her face. At this point, Madison - and Emily - threw in the towel and let things run their cause. Emily had crossed her arms as well and looked off to the side outside the door... she pointed her hand at it and the tethers came out of her fingertips and closed it. She shrugged as the thought of using her abstraction to do more than just open and close doors came and went. However, Emily was not going to drop this that easily... mostly because this situation seemed real sus.

"Lyss," Emily tried to use her chipper secretary voice to avoid coming off as a bitch, but... "Maybe you should leave this decision to Claud, yes?" Of course, that statement fell on deaf ears as Lyss was more or less trying to recruit her on her own, and... she knew that Claudette would listen to Lyss over her infallible logic. So Emily just shook her head and found herself a spot and just listened to bits and pieces of what Lyss was saying.

Until something caught her attention.

“...and two of our girls have crossed over with the Hound.”

Lyss

"... Two?" Emily raised an eyebrow as, of course, Lyss had something she wasn't telling them.

“The DENs have been looking for a woman named Annabelle. She is responsible for the recent mass murders in Tampa. I regret to inform you all that a few days ago, she was the one responsible for Izzy’s death. I only discovered this yesterday when Agent Liao approached me.”

Lyss

"Wait? The fuck?!" Madison shouted upon hearing the news of Izzy's death. Because what the fuck? She had to try really hard to fight the tears of her fallen friend. She sat down on the back of the sofa as she rested a hand in her face. Izzy was a friend of hers, probably not the closest friend these days, but they still related a lot over their love of Instagram and racy photographs. She quietly sobbed before she composed herself. A deep breath left her mouth as she looked up at Lyss. There was a hint of venom in her voice as she spoke, seemingly on auto.

"Okay, okay, okay, Lyss, I love ya' and I don't mean no disrespect," Madison said as she raised her hands and stepped up. "But shouldn't have told us this like, dunno, soon as you fuckin' heard it? And not use it to recruit some weird bitch who came outta nowhere?" She pointed a hand at Isla as she barely showed care.

A tear ran down Madison's eye and she promptly wiped it. She ain't know who Annabelle is, but she's personally wondering how deep Lyss has gotten with them given that, apparently, the head bitch in charge is giving them secret government information. From a secret government agency. One that Madison ain't trust not one bit.

"... And I think you need to start explaining some of this shit to us. Who the fuck is Annabelle? Who the fuck are even the DENS? And why the fuck do you seem all buddy-buddy with the very people that attacked us? Why the fuck... why the fuck did she kill Izzy?"

Madison's voice cracked as she was unable to maintain the facade and the tears came running down her face.

Maya came in and something amazing happened...

“Since when was that the deal? “I don’t remember ever agreeing signing up to throw my life away, even if you all think I run headfirst into danger. I’m upset over… what happened to those two, honestly, but that doesn’t mean more of us should expect to sacrifice ourselves too.”

Maya

... Emily agreed with Maya.

"... And why is the village idiot making more sense than half the people in the room?" Emily said as she looked among the group. She wasn't going to throw her life away for the Coven. Personally, Emily didn't particularly care or approve of Izzy and her whoring ways, but she also couldn't say that she didn't feel bad. They lost two sisters in a week and it... was becoming abundantly clear that Babylon was right. They were approaching a storm that they weren't prepared for... and she was wondering how many of them would be going down next. Yet, some of them were jumping to conclusions - including herself.

"Lyss, sweetie," Emily couldn't force that chipper secretary accent again but she spoke in her normal tone as she kept her whole attention on Lyss. "Are you one hundred percent sure we can trust them? Did you see a photograph? Or... even a Recollection of it?"

She crossed her arms before she continued. "They attacked us... for all we fucking know that bitch Liao herself iced Izzy!" She found herself shouting, but she sighed as she closed her eyes. Emily hated to do this to Lyss, but taking a shit at face value was the Coven's problem. "And as Madison said, some of us don't even know who the DENS, or Liao, or Annabelle even is. So, please enlighten us."

However, before her eyes drifted towards Isla as she couldn't ignore something that was bugging her anymore.

"And if you do not put that plant down..." She hissed at Isla.

Claudette was fairly happy to see that Kara was completely fine with the dangers behind the Coven. She did present a valid point when she mentioned that the dangers were seemingly inherent to being Extra-Normal. Though, Claudette couldn't help but chuckle when Mariah mentioned that was some superhero level speech.

"Do you want me to explain how a fuckin' wall works or? Ma'am? I don't even know all the way how it work, true shit, and them Grannies ain't said anything else to me since the first time they talked but that was years ago. All I know is that I done stopped bullets, knives, and half-explosions with this shit, and ain't much else I know 'bout it. Supposedly I'm sposed to be able to go invisible or war shout or some nonsense, and they showed me sommore stuff that I ain't even tried to do yet. Look. Mostly I wanna get to know y'all Coven folks cause, sis? Knowin' folks who got stuff in common with you is important. Especially when you special. And if my ability do what it do then I'd be use to y'all too. Most this shit gonna be figuring out what it's about anyway."

Mariah

Claudette raised her eyebrow as she didn't consider that Mariah wouldn't know that she didn't even know what her abstraction was. Then again, Claudette knew that she barely knew anything about being an Adept, she was more familiar with Apparitions. However, she figured that her abstraction revolved around protection... she would have to refer her to someone more qualified.

"You should speak with a sister named Lyss," Claudette started, "I believe you're an Adept and she'd know a lot more about it than me."

So far, she was more than certain these two are still going to join the Coven despite the dangers inherent in it. However, there was still one other thing that she had to discuss with them and make sure that they're prepared for. They probably should have gotten an idea of the problems that came from outside the Coven, but what about the threats from within. The problem with the Coven, in Claudette's eyes, was that they were their own worst enemy... and if they played decisions better in the past they wouldn't have even pissed off the FBI or Blake Schmidt. What's done is done, and Claudette figured that she should have tried harder to keep them out of trouble.

"Now, that's out of the way, I'm going have to warn you about the other thing that runs new members of the Coven off," Claudette started softly, "I am not aware of you know... the world of the supernatural seems to have a preference for the strange, the colorful, the eccentric... and the Coven is no difference."

Claudette began, "There's a lot of people with different personalities and world views - and with that comes with different ideas of how the boat should be run. I'm not going to lie; there's a lot of bickering and infighting, and "loud" personalities, in the Coven that doesn't necessarily go well together-" Which was likely why we cycle through leadership and membership so much. "-and I try my best to keep things under control, but it's frustrating."

Claudette looked at Kara for her response, then she looked at Mariah.

"Can you handle that? That is the biggest... dealbreaker, in my opinion."

Recollections: The Coven [COMPLETED]

@Rockin Strings I honestly didn't expect anyone new to join the RP given how big and daunting it is. However, I'm going have to, as it stands, decline this character. My big thing is that he doesn't seem to be made for this RP or connected to its lore in any way, it's mostly due to the terms like "Ghosts" instead of Apparition, you don't mention anything about Tampa (or even Florida in general), and the fact that you barely mention anything about Awakening.

He could also somehow see "Ghosts" from birth, the only way that he could do that is if he had a supernatural encounter in the past (which you don't elaborate). I think it's weird given the lore for them to latch onto him for no reason, at best he'd see one or two before gaining an abstraction or something. Also, he should be like super traumatized from accidentally killing his brother, and his family (and therapist) seem super chill about him apparently seeing ghosts.

I don't think he's an Awakened tbh, he'd be an Affixed more than anything. I don't like his skills anyway, "Photographic-memory" rarely comes up since hardly anyone has their character say anything, where and why did he learn first aid, and how in the world can you have multiple conversations at once? They just seem tacked on to e.

(This has been retired)

It's great to see the RPG has reached a point where these fetishy interest check don't need to be subtle.

Escaping The Faewoods - A Survival Horror RP
