I never said the Wolves are notorious for butchering the enemy when they're vulnerable, actually. Yet, every man and woman is entitled to his or her own opinion, Flarbinia.

Although, I'm a tad bit surprised that your character would think that they're weak, considering they've probably done more overall damage to the Vultures (and gross injustice as a result) than he has. That, and they're disposing of murderers and rapists - not innocents - so, wouldn't most see them in a good light rather than a bad one? Food for thought, I guess.

Fair is all relative, how is it fair that someone has a sword and the other guy has a knife, just because he's armed? There is only one thing that matters and that is winning, as for desecrating and displaying corpses; that's winning psychological warfare.
My travels take me many places, from the scorching sands to the cold, dark vacuum of space. But I always return to my friends and family at The Pub.

So are you always this condescending Flab, or have you had to work at it?

Flarbinia's just stating his (or his character's, I can't quite tell because the lines are getting blurred here) opinion; albeit, he's doing it very bluntly. I've taken no offense to it and I hope that you haven't either. :p

Given his history in the OOC chat and IC I strongly doubt there's a difference between the two.

The Wolves always target unsuspecting groups and kill them when they least expect it like they were serial killers in a legally safe knockoff of A Nightmare on Elm Street. My character views people who use this strategy as weak cowards because they do not have the honor to face their foes on the battlefield.

I'm fighting from up here on a wall where I have all the advantages. This is facing them on the battlefield somehow.

Prepare for it in 3...2....1...

Awesome. Your writing will never cease to amaze me Grestin.

Also, is it okay if I just pop back into this RP, assuming my original App is still valid?

Thanks.

I must say, it's impressive that this RP has lasted this long, thanks in no small part to your stellar OPing.

The last one actually lasted longer, if I recall correctly. And it had more issues than this one.

NML has actually been quite smooth so far, thanks in no small part to us having done some other RPs in the interim and gotten to know each other a bit better. Helps everything mesh more effectively, if you ask me.

I had a post written up, but I lost it.

It was basically Luke getting his AR back, his friends building makeshift weapons for the siege, then Luke borrowing a rifle from a guard and sniping someone, and causes the death of other vultures by a string of events.

Let's just pretend it happened.

So what I'm hearing is that it's time to hoist another drink in The Pub :p

Yeah, I was working on it for hours, but when I hit post I had been typing so long I was logged out, and I had lost my work.

Damn.

On another note; how long should Kazi and I wait to reach Salida? Are we doing some sort of short time-skip to allow for the Vultures' retreat and for things to return to a relative stability, or?
