Tapas Adventuring RP 2020-2021!

[Zak]

Jet kept encouraging the other humans to get out of the cart, as each one came out he was checking for any physical injuries

(He aint no doctor! Lol)

Jet: Rocky' got this.

He smirked and told Aster.

[Legendofgenii]

“Thank you!” A little girl yelled out to Jet and Aster as she pushed her way out of the cart.

Genii had joined the onlookers and gawped in confusion at what his friends were doing. “... you seeing this?” He said to Danivere and Gemma as he saw Akros use his rock magic and the rag-clothed people jumping out of the cart.

As the humans ran by, one of them shoved poor Gemma over, and the little girl who’d thanked Jet and Aster stopped to give Genii a good kick in the shin.

“T-Tyrian? He’s in charge of the thrall (slave) market... in Dovaan. I really wouldn’t go there if I were you.” The Tiger stammered to Akros. “He hates humans. What... what are you?” The Shumba asked, assuming Akros wasn’t a regular human.

Bellah walked to Makna and stroked her gently. The people who had stopped to spectate were questioning if the land dragon was a horse or not.

[DualDragons]

Danivere yelled angrily at the running humans for knocking down and hurting Gemma and Genii and waved her fist to them.

"Me?" Akros looks the Shumba in the eye. "I am the same as them." He makes the stone beneath his feet crumble.
"Was the same as them."

[Legendofgenii]

The Tiger’s ears and whiskers drooped, intimidated by Akros’ display of power.

Erras was wondering what Akros’ words meant. That he was the same because he was human once... or if he meant something else?

“So you’ll let me go?” The Shumba asked with a slight cringe.

---

“You ok Gem?” Genii stopped rubbing his leg and went to help his sister up.

“I’m alright.” Gemma said as she was pulled up. She had a bruised backside from landing on the cobbles, but she wasn’t about to announce that. “This road is pretty dangerous.”

“Yeah...” Genii was watching where the humans were running off to. Most were running on the road in the direction the soldiers went, but some jumped into the woods.

[DualDragons]

"I'll let you off the hook," Akros says to the Shumba, "those people are gone anyways. Now get lost."
Akros was going to seek out this Tyrian and make him retire from slave trading permanently.

[Legendofgenii]

The Tiger side-stepped in a wide semi-circle to get around Akros, then ran off - heading for the city.

Erras released a breath he was holding, relieved that things had turned out ok... mostly. “I don’t doubt that he is on his way to inform this Tyrian about what happened here.” The Knight wasn’t blaming Akros or the others, it was merely another danger to add to the seemingly endless list.

Gorn approached the group, dragging along the cart wheel. It had a few new nicks in it, but it was still usable if the group wanted to fix the cart and ride it the rest of the way to Dovaan. It even had two horses tethered to the front (quietly nibbling on a grass verge).

“You know, it would be safer up there.” Genii pointed upwards. “You could always...” He made a flying gesture with his hands to Gemma, which was met with a lot of anxious head-shaking.

“I couldn’t... it’s been so long... and I’m a lot... cuvier than I used to be...” Gemma could ramble just as much as Genii when she was nervous. “What if I fall... I could break something... or someone.”

[DualDragons]

"Tch." Akros wasn't impressed by this Tyrian. Usually he was decently level headed, but slave traders pissed him off a lot.

"Oh!" Daemon sees Gorn with the wheel. "We could put this back on the cart. That way we might be able to sneak into the city."

Danivere understood Gemma when she was talking about weight gain. After all, it happened to her as well at some, even though she lost it in the last couple of years.
Well, most of it atleast. Dani observes her own curves.

[Legendofgenii]

Erras looked from Daemon, to the cart and back again. It wasn’t a bad plan. At least the more... exotic looking members of their group wouldn’t be harassed by the guards at the city gates. They’d also save their energy and get to Dovaan much quicker.

“Good idea.” The Knight nodded. “Let me help...” he went to try and separate the gorilla from its new toy.

---

“You’ll be fine Gem. Look how big your wings are!” Genii pointed out. He’d seen her stretch them out to dry them next to the fire earlier. They made his own look tiny in comparison. “I can show you what to do... and catch you if you-“

“Some other time maybe.” Gemma didn’t want to try it right now, and was getting more nervous the longer they talked about it.

[Zak]

Jet smirked. As he got an idea in his head. Then turned to Erras and Daemon.

Jet: I could always pull the cart while everyone takes a ride in the back?

[Legendofgenii]

"Like a pony? ... Snort." Genii contributed to Jet's conversation as he and Gemma rejoined the others.

"I'm not sure that's such a good idea..." Erras grumbled as he hauled the large wagon wheel over to Daemon and the side of the cart. He was getting flashbacks of being travel sick on the train ride back in Bergenshire - only he imagined Jet would pull the cart even faster.

"Looks like it's a Neigh from Erras!" Genii added, snorting again.

[DelythThomasArt]

Makna huffed, feeling almost offended by the bad joke. She trotted round to look at the weird four legged land dragons attached to the cart.

[DualDragons]

"I wonder if that wheel will hold..." Daemon thought seeing Jet express the idea of pulling the cart.

[enbyscreamer]

Daminti held tight to Gorn, having woken up from the movement getting into the tree. "Wazzdabigidea?vhe said grumpy. He hated being wokem up from his naps.

[Legendofgenii]

The cart horses were busy gorging themselves on the verge and hedges that lined the road.

Bellah didn’t say anything, but she was definitely walking if Jet was going to pull the cart.

“The wheel doesn’t look damaged... but they certainly weren’t made to withstand Jet’s speed.” Erras said, checking the spokes and tread. “... we are just missing the hub nut. It most likely flung off when the cart crashed.”

“What’s a hub nut?” Genii mumbled, having a peek inside the carriage.

Erras walked over to another wheel and tapped the metal nut at the centre of it. “One of these.”

Gorn made a few sad grunts for being told off.

“Are you alright up there?” Gemma laughed at Daminti as he had a little grumble. She thought he was adorable, even though he seemed mad about something.

[Zak]

Jet: ... I mean, I could jog and it'd be fine. Unless you want Makna pulling it all the way there.

Jet pouted as it would seem like he would have to just sit in the cart

(Lol)

[Legendofgenii]

Erras rubbed the back of his neck and stared at Jet, as if contemplating the blonde’s suggestion. It was good of Jet to offer to pull the cart, but he wasn’t sure how they’d explain it to the city guards once they reached Dovaan.

“He said he’ll go slowly.” Genii smiled as he backed up Jet’s idea. He thought it would be fun.

Erras looked to Daemon, hoping the Monster Hunter would back him up on this.

[DualDragons]

"Maybe it would be for the better if we went at a leisurely pace. We'd attract unwanted attention if we move faster than a hawk." Daemon replies.

Danivere sneezes.

[Legendofgenii]

“I agree...” Erras said as he went over to see how heavy the cart was. They’d need to lift it in order to slot the wheel back in place.

He bent his knees and tried to lift up the wagon, but gave up and let it drop with a grunt. It was going to take a few of them to do this... or perhaps...

“My Lady...” Erras turned to Serenity. “Could you assist us?”

“One for a wish...” Genii said to Danivere as he searched for the missing wheel nut.

One of the cart horses spotted Makna and whinnied at her.

[DelythThomasArt]

Makna tilted her head, it spoke in a foreign language too... She attempted to whiney back

[DualDragons]

Serenity is silent for a moment before she nods, walking over and squatting down to lift the wagon up a bit.
