BTW, you have Kendra acting like Grace has vanished even though the last sentence of Haruki's post is "For the moment she is still manifested."

@rush99999

Oop, sorry. I misunderstood. I'll rectify that ^^;

Urban Shadows - Heebie Jeebies

In that case, a successful KYC roll will help, but it won't immediately solve the problem. At most, you'll figure out the course of action that will lead to the best possible outcome for you and yours.

@rush99999

That's good enough for me, as I am little stuck as to what I can have Kendra do in this scenario.

Got a 10.

Urban Shadows - Heebie Jeebies

Is Kendra trying to avoid something?

@rush99999

Yes: Misty and Grace getting hurt by Abberline.

@rush99999 Question, is this a situation in which Kendra can roll Keep Your Cool?

Kendra

The man who exited the other car was, thankfully, not Abberline as Kendra had previously thought. However, he was still toting a gun, and didn't seem altogether friendly with the way he approached. When he asked if they were Misty, Kendra made a point of looking him up and down. "Depends," she said after a long moment. "Which answer is less likely to make you use that?" She motioned to the gun. She knew she was probably playing with fire here, but she had no idea who this guy was or what he wanted with Misty. Kendra didn't consider Misty a 'friend' - there were very few people in this world that they did - but they weren't about to point a potential psycho in her direction. They had enough guilt on their conscience already without adding 'unwittingly aiding a murderer' to the list.

However, before the man could respond, Grace finally materialized and her reaction was... unexpected. Not the part about Abberline already being in the building, though that was less than ideal. It was the recognition and pure rage that she directed towards this stranger. Kendra looked between the two of them, uncertain what to make of this situation, and was about to open their mouth before Grace said she was going back in the building. "Hold on, Grace!" Kendra said. "I don't think we should be rushing in without a plan. You may be immune to regular bullets, but I got a strong feeling that Abberline has things that could hurt a ghost. Plus, even if he doesn't, seeing you might escalate the situation and cause that itchy trigger finger of his to be... err, well, itchier." They crossed their arms. "I'd rather avoid anyone getting shot tonight, if it's all the same to you." As they made that comment, they pointedly glanced back towards the stranger.

Urban Shadows - Heebie Jeebies

Inside Kendra there are two wolves:
- One is the desire to not escalate the situation with this gun-toting stranger
- The other is the desire to make a snarky comment
Which will they choose? Find out later, after Grace's response!

The Wild Beyond Witchlight

Jub made a comment earlier about the group possibly loosing their sanity from being in the Feywild too long, but at this point he's pretty sure Brutrumukk never had any.

The Wild Beyond Witchlight

Jub the Peculiar

Jub was still stewing over the encounter with Jingle Jangle and Brutrumukk's violent - and uncomfortably familiar - reaction to her when the house approached. He raised his head, looking at the building, then at the feet, then back up at the building. "You know, you'd think after a day of being here, I'd become numb to all the weird shit," Jub said. "But no. Just when I think I've seen the weirdest this place has to offer, something literally comes round the corner that dares to be weirder." He gave a loud sigh. "This place is exhausting." When Brutrumukk started to walk inside, Jub was inevitability brought in along with him as he was perched on the bugbear's shoulder. "Oh I guess we're going in, sure, okay, fine," Jub said as he threw up his hands in exasperation. "March straight into the spooky leg house. What could go wrong?"

Epyllion: Beyond Moonlight's Reach

Kyte tenses up slightly as Stargaze approachs them, but otherwise says and does nothing as Stargaze attempted to heal their wing. Similar to how it was when Fellwing caused the flowers to bloom, there is a long pause where it seems like nothing is happening. Then, Stargaze feels the warm glow of the Spirit Moon channeling through as the dark veins on Kyte's wing start to fade away, being reduced to several small dark flecks. These spots attempt remain for a few moments, as if stubbornly trying to resist Stargaze's magic, but even these eventually fade away.

Kyte's wing is now completely rid of the Darkness.

"How..." Kyte steps away slowly, looking over their wing as they flex it. "I tried to use Moon Magic earlier but it didn't seem to do anything." After a moment of testing their wing, they look back to Stargaze with a mixture of surprise, gratitude... and just the smallest hint of guilt, likely remembering the the moments they stood by while Stonescale teased and made fun of Stargaze. "Thank you," they say after a long pause.

Since meeting her earlier, Echo's expression has remained a small, tired smile that didn't quite reach her eyes. Upon seeing Stargaze pull of this miracle, however, her smile widens slightly and the bio-luminescent patches on her skin glow a warm amber as she radiates with strong pride at Staraze's accomplishment. "Remarkable," she says quietly, seeming to be talking more to herself than anyone else.

Epyllion: Beyond Moonlight's Reach

On another note: I'm gonna try something. It's probably not going to yield anything, but it's better than nothing...
