S35 Recap: Welcome To Zona Rosa

General Summary

#SplitThePartyOrPerish > The gang splits up and looks for clues libraries > Nova strikes out on their own and promptly gets absolutely fucking astray. > #NotACityKid > Meanwhile on the magic library hunt, Corayas and Serenas employ the aid of Scribius to discern a hidden doorway > One not so sneaky teleport later and the duo are invited into the flabbergasted halfling women's... Home? Office? They're invited into the building. > Serenas: “So anyways my boyfriend's got this cursed pea and we were hoping that you could help us remove said curse.” > Halfling Wizard Lady the party never asked the name of: “Your boyfriend's pee is cursed???” > #WordGames > Serenas and Corayas proceed to not really understand how much shit should cost but at least they're nice about it > #HowMuchCouldOneThirdDegreeSpellPossiblyCost? > Back with our wayward druid, Nova gets bumped into by some dude with a big plank of wood > #Rude > They also decide they'd rather sleep in an alley beside the bar instead of just going inside and having to talk to strangers > #Valid > #They'reJustSleepingThere.... #MENACINGLY!> Of course, this inevitably leads to someone trying to rob them in their sleep > #CityProblems > Luckily the DM rolls like shit constantly and Nova's got pretty good Passive Perception > Tho this doesn't stop them from getting stabbed when they spook the thief > CityOfFuckAroundAndFindOut.gif > Nova: “Actually, Fuck This.” /casts entangle/ > One surrender and pocket rifling later Nova sends the thief on his way with 5gp and a stern warning > The diner wench who'd apparently been watching from the sidelines introduces herself as Marilyn and insists Nova come inside and have some waffles. > With hotsauce. > They're really fucking good. > Also Mr. Michael Mittens is plopped firmly in Nova's lap > #TherapyFamiliar > Some Pigeons: “Can we adopt her as our party Mom?” > Marilyn: “So what's your name sweetie?” > Nova: “You may call me Nova.” > Marilyn: “Weird way of saying that, but ok.” > #ThePartyHasLearnedTheirLesson, #KindOf > Marilyn does her thing and manages to convince Nova to stick around until she gets off shift so she can take them back to the bunkhouse > #SleeplessNights > In the morning the chaos crew 2.0 take off for the magic library place, Romad and Nova tagging along none the wiser as to the ulterior motives of the other two. > Romad: “These two would never lie to me. Serenas loves me and Corayas probably doesn't have a dishonest bone in his body.” > Corayas and Serenas: PinocchioNose.gif > #PantsOnFire > The party asks where Nova was all night but get a “I'll tell you later” in reply as a very sleepy wizard lady lets them in and leads them to the library. > Nova gets directions to the yellow section and Romad starts to get pretty sus > “#JustSaying, we're a party of mostly bards, I'm sure someone has a spell that would help with this...” > The party continues the questionable trend of using charm magic to coerce their love interests into doing what they think is best for the charmed person in question > Wizard lady removes the curse, collects payment, but allows the party to keep exploring her library > Why? No one asked. > Corayas informs Nova that it is now later and asks about what happened the night before > Nova: “Oh. I got stabbed.” > AND THAT'S WHERE WE'LL END IT!
