GoodJust moved across the house.

Yo Irish! Got an idea with teams. Like I said earlier, everyone seems to already be going in their separate directions and everything, except Priscilla (because of the whole confusion with Alice leaving) and now Greyson joining. Maybe team GRPT (best sounding name I could come up with) could be made?

I thought Tai and Robert were going to the prairie with all the Sitting Bulls?

Yeah, Robert and Tai aren't headed for the same mountain as Emlyn and Auriel. Robert was just noticing the mountain behind him. Sorry for the confusion. To bad too, team TEAR would have been cool. We're already going in opposite directions, so I think it's too late though.

"Ah," Tai replied simply with a nod. So, a variant on a gunblade then. That was interesting, in terms of combat applications, though not being able to stab something and shoot it at the same time had to be a bit of a drawback. Then again, all it really required was a different fighting style, and somehow Robert was still alive using it, so it seemed to work for him. Well then, that would be interesting to see how their combat styles would match up.Just as he finished speaking, they emerged from the forest into a large prairie, and surprisingly Tai thought much the same thing as Robert did, making them both Masters of the Obvious. Coming to a momentary stop, he scanned the area with a careful eye to detail, looking to see if he could locate something that would show where the artifacts they were here to retrieve where, if it was indeed in this location. "I don't suppose you see any sign of the Artifacts," he asked, unsure as to the direction they should head next.

Robert pointed to a hill that was not too far away. The hill almost seemed to be the only bit of land that wasn't flat. "Maybe that hill? If it isn't, at least it will give us higher ground to try and see the artifact in this sea of red grass." So they continued walking towards the hill. Robert noticed several Sitting Bulls in the distance, all scattered about. They weren't close enough to be a real threat though, so Robert ignored them. Robert looked behind him to see a large mountain and all he could think was how large that mountain was compared to their current destination. "I'd hate to have to climb that thing. Looks like it would be grueling work," Robert thought to himself. Robert then squinted at the mountain, he was sure that he saw about seven small dots that he assumed were either people or Grimm. Robert turned his head back to the hill in front of him. "Man, I haven't fought any Grimm all day. Nature has been attacking more than Grimm. I'm almost disappointed. I kinda hope there will be something to fight when we find this relic. They wouldn't leave the relic unguarded would they?" Robert thought to himself.

"Alright," Tai replied, accepting that answer for what it was. If there were other reasons, then Tai would leave that alone. Unless it became a problem, he was willing to let his partner be as revealing or not as he wanted. Tai was willing to trust that Robert would tell him when he felt like it, and Tai was willing to wait until then if it actually mattered. Asked about his weapon, Tai nodded, presenting the meteor hammer in it's barbell form to Robert. "It's a meteor hammer, a traditional weapon as it were," he explained, laying it horizontal and unlocking the two sides, the heads spitting out to slam into trees nearby, spikes gouging at wood. He then unlocked the middle handle which had shrunk in the process, so he held two chains, each with one head, like a flail. "It also lights on fire," he added, before proceeding to show that off by having one of the spiked heads catch ablaze courtesy of fire dust after he removed it from the tree.Demonstration done, he quickly reassembled his weapon and returned it to his belt before looking over to his partner. 'And what about yours? I imagine it must have a few tricks."

Robert looked at Tai's weapon with amazement. When asked about his own weapon, Robert felt a bit less excited to show it off when compared to The Meteor Hammer. "It was designed and built by my dad. It has two forms, blade and gun." Robert switched between both modes to show what each looked like. "When in gun mode a pair of crosshairs appear on my visor to show where both bracers are aimed. I keep extra ammo on my belt, here. My dad never actually taught me how to use these though so for all I know the visor and bracers could have other functions that I don't know about." As Robert finished his sentence, both Tai and Robert walked out of the trees and into a large pasture. "Whoa, that's a large pasture," said Captain Obvious (aka Robert).

Well. Idk where is Alice. So Priscilla is here

With Oliver gone, does that mean we're going to see more Trico attacking every male character she sees to get with Priscilla? Should Robert watch his back for flying boomerangs from now on?

Tai, for his part, didn't pay much attention to Robert or what he was doing, certainly not enough to see him talking silently to a rock. His own attention was focused on their surroundings and making sure they weren't ambushed, and at the same time appreciating the natural beauty of Forever Fall. A pity the place was a hive of Grimm activity. Otherwise he might want to spend some more time here, maybe do some painting. Oh well.His attention diverted by Robert's question, he looked over to his partner, crafting a response before he gave an answer. "I wanted to help people, to stand against the darkness so someone else wouldn't have to." It wasn't quite some traumatic backstory involving Grimm and slaughtered villages, but it was what made him him. "And yourself?"

"I just want to train, be the best that I can possibly be. And the best place to get that training is Beacon. The whole becoming a Hunter thing is just an added bonus," Robert responded. What Robert planned to do with that training he kept to himself. He didn't feel like giving ALL of his personal information to someone he just met. Robert wouldn't lie about any question asked, just avoid any he didn't want to answer. For the most part he was an open book, though. "How about that weapon you got there? Seems pretty cool. Does it do anything special?"

Robert continued to follow Tai. While walking, Robert found a round rock about the size of his palm and began kicking it in the direction they were moving. Every time the rock slowed to a stop, Robert would kick it and send it forward again. Stop. Kick. Stop. Kick. Stop. Kick. Eventually, Robert misaimed and accidently kicked at the wrong angle. The rock flew into a large bush. Robert approached the bush, then moved it aside to see where the rock had landed. As soon as he saw what was behind the bush, his jaw dropped. Several Broodlings crawling on the ground and among the trees. In the center of the mass of oversized-spiders sat the rock that Robert had been kicking. "Nope!" and Robert quickly retuned to following Tai. As soon as he was directly behind Tai, Robert looked back to the bush. "I'll never forget you," Robert mouthed to the rock. "So Tai, what convinced you to become a hunter?"

There's two of them! WTF! What's happening?!

Hey Flamelord, do you want to head for the pasture? The Irish Tree PM'd me and said there was something good over there.
