King's Mulligan [Interactive Project]

[ThreadLurkingComorant]

You performed a bow with a sweeping confidence. You managed to catch a detail right away.

Mismatched fingers on one hand, and rings bearing the mark of royals.

You maintained your position.

Tiles: I’m the last representative of the guild of Tiles. I’m more than ready to aid your efforts wherever I can.

Starman: Last representative? That’s unfortunate to hear…

Their ears pulled back.

Starman: When Scab reported that a knight of your guild appeared, we were hoping to find out that some of you had found shelter.

Tiles: No, unfortunately I really am what’s left..

Starman: I’m sorry. Your family always did so much for the local communities in Coins.

Tiles: Mm.. the crown saw a business opportunity and didn’t care much for the locals wishing to maintain the culture. You’re more than familiar, yes?

Starman: Aye.. place is gentrified to hell these days, hate how uniform and chrome it looks.

Starman: If you don’t have any place to stay you’re more than welcome to. Told you were in pretty rough shape…

Tiles: I’m managing fairly well.

Starman takes a good look at you.

Starman: Your mandible is cracked..

Tiles: A couple of guards did it. Need to have it filled in..

Starman: Unfortunately this safe house doesn’t have a dentist who’s familiar with your kind. I’m surprised though, what happened there?

Tiles: Jumped after leaving the local pub. Someone there snitched on me…

Starman: Nasty.

Tiles: At that point I’d been jumping from spot to spot so long I didn’t have it in me to put up my best.

Gallows: Still managed to put in a lot of work despite that, be proud of that.

Tiles: It was far from my best but..

Gallows: Don’t be modest! You managed to handle a job I’d been planning to sooner or later. Aye?

The rabbit looked over at Creme.

Creme: I’d been in the talks with one of his collaborators for a while..

Gallows: The job ended up being a bit impromptu admittedly but you managed to carry it quite well.

Creme: You really came through for me… I owe you.

She couldn’t help but swish her tail.

Starman had taken a good look at the cat.

Starman: Gally, this the deserter you mentioned?

Gallows: Hard to call her that, doesn’t seem like her heart was ever in it.

Starman: Mm…

Starman: Gonna need some time before I feel confident letting you in on certain things but…

Starman: I’ve been told your situation. You’re welcome to stay so long as you contribute.

Creme: Of course.. I may have to vanish at points to avoid suspicion though..

Creme: And my other half is still here.

Creme: Transparency is key, I don’t expect your trust without showing that much..

Gallows: Also have Tiles keeping an eye on her. Volunteered to share a room just to keep watch.

Starman: Normally I’d like someone closer for that but…

The star-faced creature looked directly at you.

Starman: Get the sense you’re someone who’s got too much bad blood with the crown to even consider pulling a scheme. Aye?

Tiles: You have no idea…

Starman: Very well then. We have some time til dinner but it’s fairly soon relatively. 

Starman: You can meet up with Scab and get the tour, or cool off in your room with Creme til we summon you all.

Starman: Also feel free to ask any questions…. But only if I can ask a few in return. I am curious about our new recruits.
