i odn't wanna grade

*don't

can I just give them all Bs?

The high strung used to A students would have panic attacks, and the slackers used to Cs would get too smug. Funny? Yes, but might lead to complications 🙂

Though now I'm picturing you with some sort of dart colletion and a board with grade zones on it.

Cute Lily!

Poor crocodile. Didn't get a snack.

She's all bones anyway

Yeah, barely a crunch and done.

Do not let my insert of cookie pictures dissuade you two from continuing when you both get a chance to RP the great cookie robbery. I give you rights to RP Kourtney and soem other DeBukes if you plan to run the Briar and Amity do crime cookie raid 🙂

Not that ya needed it, but making sure you knew I would just love lurking later.

Nope

scene 🙂

Brain is busy trying to figure out how to work in a new plot I wanted for SW without it feeling shoehorned. THose are tricky

"Here is the setup! Here is the problem!"
"Wait, my character would have had a way to sidestep that before we got there, now it looks like they goofed"

ughhhh

they can be tricky

Damn you for having such poised and skilled characters, Mr D

"You see, Gwen, I am your long lost half sister from our father who YOU killed, sure he was an asshole, an abuser to your mom and mine, but I swore an oath. PRepare for death by chisel!"

Right?!

And, like, SW is in a pretty happy status quo

Blush I hope I'm not Mary sueing?

More like, here is a noblesse oblige plot that starts with a noble obligation you got stuck with, WELL Nadeen probably would have somehow found a way to avoid it in the first place. But MY FUN

Thistle is confident in her art, has a place and a studio and a (whisper) boyfriend

Not at all MR D, but it's hard to have a problem when you're so good at your job

I could have Nadeen visiting else where? Maybe she's busy at the parliment of dreams ? So ot hers can deal with fall out?

and I don't want to stick in a plot that could be construed as "the baroness missed a way to avoid this"

it was a plot for YOU though 😆

The real issue? I'm trying for courtly intrigue that Rae is NOT that clever at, despite what she thinks

"I would return , beloved, but they're voting on some silly initive to ban russian violins playing at full volume when the Varich walk by any slaugh. It's censorship!"

WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT WASN'T SUBTLE AND CLEVER

Please... my attempts at courtly intrigue read like a 14 year old's fan fic. "Guy with twisty beard, trust him!"

I might throw Aiden under the bus "Hey I was gonna do a thing but something called me out of town sorry love, DEAL WITH THIS PLEASE I am SURE there is no PROBLEM

Sometimes even smart and skilled people miss things

After all isn't that what NPCs are for?

There was Beltaine, there was a new horse, there was house business

Yes Cat! BUT, what is well and good for an NPC to miss, is not fair for me to say a PC missed

fair

which, hey

Happy Beltaine!

Do what I do... ask for a roll now and then, and then one day when they fail it start the story. Then you can say "I gave you a roll and well it was for blank' ignoring all the other times it worked so you dind't bother, making yourself LOOK clever when actually you're just a cheat and... Puts down wine Damn tongue loosener!

👼 I am PROBABLY joking.

And yes, happy Beltaine!

Feel free to position PCs as desired, open to whoever

Beltaine means fresh dye!

and I have to go to Gymnatics with Max now but feel free to chatter

Unless Mr D fell in a well

little timmy!

have fun w/kiddo ❤️

Sorry, I did fall in a well... and lunch
