Marcus hopped up in the air a little and caught the ball. Then proceeded to underhand throw the ball so it would be easier for Genii to catch.


Lucretia looked at Erras:

Lucretia: "He's doing a lot better than a few hours ago. Moving that fast is completely dangerous. But I guess necessary depending on the situation."

(Mostly just small talk between rounds four and five, we did just have another character, Whisp, introduced.

He’s a mute boi, and really strange looking. Anyone who wants to approach him can, I can go grab his description real quick so you can understand what he looks like.)

(You can scroll up to the post I took this one from to see a comparison for the hook.)

(He 5'11", since that isn't mentioned here.)

(Interesting.)

"Who's this new guy?" Hanako says. The rest of the people she's talking to (Jin, Aerith, Luci) turn around as well.

Bellah assumed from Whisp’s reaction that he must have arrived here some other way.

The others in her party would most likely extend an invitation to Whisp to join their ranks and get home with help from this mysterious tournament artefact... that’s what they usually did.

Would Bellah do that?

Bellah narrowed her eyes at Whisp... then rolled them and sighed. “Tomorrow we return to our worlds... you may follow.”

With that said she took a seat at the bar beside Stockade and ordered some tea.

“Weh-hay!” Gen just about caught the ball that time. “Erras!” He dramatically wound his arm around a few times before shooting the little ball at his mentor.

“I can only imagine. I am sure he will re-“ the hackysack struck Erras on the forehead.

The Knight stopped, picked up the small ball and frowned at Genii.

“Sorry Erras.” Gen tried not to laugh. “I did shout your name before I-“ the Siren stopped talking because the hackysack hit him right in the... “Ouf!”

“Good aim...” Gen said once he could speak again. He threw the ball back to Marcus.

((No worries. (Hopefully nothing bad.) I should probably head to bed soon actually. :sweat_smile: ))

Lucretia: "What was that? You're sure he'll what?

She asked. Meanwhile, Marcus hands the ball over to Pholaron's antennas. Pholaron throws the ball at Genii pretty fast.

“Fast bowl!” Gen caught Pholaron’s throw, but it stung his fingers a bit.

“I didn’t know the cockroaches could throw things?” He said to Marcus as he threw the ball back again. “That’s awesome!”

“Recover in time for the tournament tomorrow.” Erras continued talking to Lucretia. “I could prepare a healing draught for him if needed. I fear my remedies are not as potent as the healing potions of this world, but it may still help.”

Marcus catches the ball.

Marcus: "Only with their antennas. It's no big deal."
Pholaron: "10-21-19-20 15-21-18 1-14-20-5-14-14-1-19."

He said tossing it back to Genii.


Lucretia nodded to Erras.

Lucretia: "I spoke to him earlier. He's not coming out of his room until the final round. Which makes sense. He may decide to... wreck havoc on whatever's next. Maybe you could check on him again for us."

@AmazementComics

“I think it’s impressive.” Gen said as he caught the ball. “I can’t throw things with my ears.” Not that he’d ever tried.

“I can do this though.” He chucked the ball straight up and as it came back down and lined up to his waist, he span around on the spot and whipped it with his tail - sending it hurtling towards Marcus.


“Of course.” Erras was happy to check in on Anthony. He’d do so once they returned to the tavern.

((I know antennae aren’t ears (well, except for mosquitoes) :sweat_smile: ))

Marcus catches the ball with impeccable timing.

Marcus: "Nice throw dude. Another thing about these cockroaches, they increase our reaction time tenfold."
Pholaron [English Translation] "We are different from the Earth realm's species of cockroach."


Lucretia's face looks at Erras's with utmost gratitude.

Luvretia: "Thank you so much. You don't know how much that means to us."

((Can I get a recap? I'm too lost to join in the conversation of the others so I may just have my guys go return the buffalo and earn the reward

((They are just walking back to the town gate (Marcus, Lucretia, Erras and Genii), chatting and playing with a ball.

In town Bellah found a stray (Whisp) and brought him back to the tavern - currently at the bar.))

“So who is the fastest?” Gen asked Marcus. “Out of you, Lucretia and Anthony? Can you all fly as fast as Anthony did today?”


“It is no trouble. We may all be eager to return home, but not at the expense of loosing someone...” Erras was worried about this, because of what Daemon had told him (the prophecy from the fortune teller) that one of their party would not be leaving this world.

“Though I am confident that the team will succeed in the final round.” Erras reassured himself.
