Kitsune is giving them too long, I'm sure Pete can scheme in ten minutes.

Re: 2014/08/29 - Asking NIcely
So could someone remind me, what "penalties" is Kitsune referring to? Simply no longer having the powers that come with being an avatar, right?
So Tarot looses her psychic abilities, Sabrina her supernatural abilities, and King turns back into Joel? (Or does King's transformation not count as one of his avatar powers...?)

Re: 2014/08/29 - Asking NIcely
Humorously, I thought for a moment that Pete would summon in all of his past potential avatars in a desperate plea to get someone to fight for him. That won't work. X3
What i find sweet about Sabrina is she doesn't scorn her past boyfriends. D'awww. <3
... she also has alot of paper work. and a pen. when do pets carry around pens? that is the most silliest thing i ever~ *bricked*
10 minutes to do whatever you gotta do to not become mortal. I can actually see Pete attempting a persuasive deal for both King and Bailey, but they ultimately turn it down with Pete in the end ultimately trying to brute force his way out of it somehow.

Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking. It's not a bad theory either. Out of all of the possible outcomes, this seems the most likely, BUUUTTT it's Rick comic and we don't know for sure. He can do what he wants with it. I just can't wait for Monday now!GameCobra wrote:

This needs to happen. I want this to happen. This would be the best thing ever.Gesque wrote:
So for my final prediction (I've been wrong at every single one I've made so far, so maybe this'll be it!), I'm going to guess that the Great Kitsune is counting on neither Bailey, King, Sabrina, or Tarot agreeing to return to the fight. When they both fail, then Pete and Spirit Dragon will have to serve out their bargain, to live as mortals for one full lifetime. As Bailey's pups.

Kitsune is being way too nonchalant about everything. He's all like "Well, sucks to suck".

Re: 2014/08/29 - Asking NIcely
Glad I'm not the only one thinking along these lines. Pete and Dragon's feud's probably seriously disrupted whatever campaign the Great Kitsune had planned, plus he had to come up with a way to keep whoever else is in their gaming group amused while those two battled it out. Unplanned party rifts are a pain for a DM to deal with, he's probably been itching for a chance to cut their egos down to size for a while now.Gesque wrote:
Basically, I'm willing to bet that even though he experiences time subjectively, the Great Kitsune is as sick of the bickering as King/Joel is. Going from the art alone, I'm willing to bet that something happened to Pete's previous avatar here (probably death) and Pete was pretty attached to her, as gamers tend to get. Pete blamed Dragon or a decision she made, so he tried to take "control" over the gaming group, which led to the duel.
Since Pete's avatar in that comic appears to be a nomad barbarian (note she's not wearing armor) and we know that this conflict has been going on for at least 5,000 years, its possible at the very least. With so much time passing from the mortal perspective, its quite possible that this feud has completely ruined whatever plans the Great Kitsune had for his campaign. Great Kitsune definitely has a storyteller's attitude, as seen from his comment here.
Going from all of this, I think the Great Kitsune is smart enough to know that even if one of the wins the duel, the conflict won't really be over because the loosing party is going to be pretty sore at the winning party, and the whole thing will happen again. As a matter of fact, given that Pete specifically says that the Great Kitsune loves, "to screw with player plans with that book of his," it is possible that Great Kitsune has been planning to "screw" with Pete AND Spirit Dragon's expectations, tricking them BOTH into loosing so they have to suffer the same, exact fate. One entire lifetime as mortals. Because they BOTH need a slice of humility pie.

Re: 2014/08/29 - Asking NIcely
Well, GK is the game-master, not a player - he's on the side of the NPCs (well, technically, he's not supposed to have a side, if it's DnD-esque ethics. But it's still fun to watch players lose to entirely legitimate challenges. I mean seriously, all they had to for one of them to win was NOT cause their avatars to run away; It was essentially PvP, a TPK wasn't supposed to be possible (mind you, this isn't a real TPK, but all the players lost all their current characters on a likely-permanent basis, so it's close enough))Bucky-Roo wrote:Kitsune is being way too nonchalant about everything.

So who is the real enemy...the celestial gods or common sense?
Besides, like AN said in the quote beneath, he's probably getting a bit tired of the PvP duel - subjective time is one thing, but he's the game-master; In order to be anywhere near competent at that, he's gotta 'process' everything that happens at the gaming table.
I dunno if there even are any other people in the group - a two-player group isn't unheard of in DnD, and this is a game with far better-defined 'challenge ratings'.Ade Nightwolf wrote: Pete and Dragon's feud's probably seriously disrupted whatever campaign the Great Kitsune had planned, plus he had to come up with a way to keep whoever else is in their gaming group amused while those two battled it out.

If there are, they might be temporary; People who like the concept of the campaign, but who aren't interested enough to stick around when the campaign ends.
But party rifts and general PvP is annoying to most DMs - even people who run 'Arena' campaigns, which are essentially all PvP all the time, tend to complain in various OOC threads about how the players drive them up the walls.
And yeah, he does seem like he's perhaps a bit on the smug side, so he's probably been hoping they'd screw up badly enough for him to be given a chance to gloat.
I'm curious about how Ms. Three-heads is doing, though.
Just staring blankly at the drama?
Currently she's my pen-favorite of those in that room (you know, like penultimate, but with favorites? Point is, I prefer Bailey, but THEN there's Cerberus)
I used to like King, Tarot, and Sabrina, but Tarot's getting rather grumpy, I'm not sure about Sabrina's various moodswings in this arc, and King... Didn't really convey to me why it is that he cares about breaking up the fight. Did he think Bailey might get lasting damage? It didn't seem like it. Seemed far too bloodless for a 'serious' fight, and more like a fight you'd see in a fight-related competition with rules and a general 'please don't actually kill each other, alright?' attitude.
Besides, King's King, he's not the nicest person out there - though he's trying to be better, nowadays.

Well, that too. Plus she hates Pete so, y'know, any chance of seeing him humiliated is tops in her book.

Wouldn't be surprised if she broke up with him because she didn't like his way of playing.
Re: 2014/08/29 - Asking NIcely
Or, if we're going with the 'she's a player' idea (which I think is wrong, but mreh), she might only have gotten together with him because he was in the same gaming group.valerio wrote:Wouldn't be surprised if she broke up with him because she didn't like his way of playing.
Maybe not consciously, but if you get together with the first person to show interest in you (and I find too many 'nerds' do), and you only talk to people when gaming with them, it ends up having the same result as if you started off specifically wanting to date someone in the group.

"Four more". There's Dragon, Kitsune's already there, so that leaves at least two and possibly three demigods (depending on Kitsune's status) unaccounted for.

The game master has spoken, being a jerk against the other two jerks. Awesome decision, Great Kitsune. Funny see how powerful demigods face such mortals embarrassing little time problems, we'll see how Pete will attempt to convince Bailey... I smell a game over, hoping for a good punishment for both. What will be the penalties for the avatars?
Looks like you have a short memory, Spirit Dragon, we remember well that case from Tarot, but those from Sabrina... Eh, you're being unlucky in love because of your attitude to steal other's boyfriends, it's now clear.

Spira isn't on their good side in regards to her pawns boyfriends. Her desperation face is pathetically adorable.
As for Pete, odds are he's going to try bargaining. I can see him saying "Kitsune, is this ten minutes subjective or objective?"
and Kitsune replying "Objective, your feathery highship." therefore inciting a "****" for Pete.
