S44 Recap: Mafia Oaths & Therapy

General Summary

We start off strong with the DM struggling to speak coherently > #TrouthMoubles > Also like a fuck ton of confusion about how many mafiasi are in the room, which ones have names, who knows said names, and so on > So anyways Pazuka goes on a mob boss monologue complete with lapcat coati > #YouCameIntoMyCityAndYouKickedMyGuards > “So here's how this is gonna go; I'm gonna tell you what you'll be doing to make up for your disrespect, I'm gonna get some insurance that you'll keep your word, and then I'll let you apologize, capische?” > #ScaryMafiaLady > And that's about what happens, the party's told to throw the last match of the battle of the bands, are given a “choice” between swearing a binding oath on the river Styx or have their loved ones held as collateral (they swear the oath), and then the punks voice apologies to varying effect > Nova does their best! And when Pazuka is unmoved Corayas steps in to defend them in halfling (#ForTheDramaOfItAll) > Also he issues the most Corayas threat possible: “My mom makes the best cooking in the world and you will never have it.” > Pazuka: “You're great kid, I knew I liked you for a reason! Now come over here so I can punch you in the face.” > … > Corayas: “Was that a joke or??” > It was not. > #MakingAnExample #MafiaMethods #StressfulReunions > Ok so we're gonna be done with That now! > DM: “I'm gonna be the Pigeon when I say trust me; y'all are gonna want to go to the diner” > Marilyn sweeps in, immediately recognizes the state of the party, and gets to work doing what she does best > #TherapyFamiliarTime #GoodCompanyGoodFood > “Is that a designated Shadowy Corner of Brooding?” > Yes. Yes it is. > #WeLoveToSeeIt > Romad decides he's gotten too comfortable in his own skin and goes full punk with a purple mohawk and everything. > Mr.Michael-Mittens decides the vibes are all wrong so he starts playing with the bells on Nova's antlers to raise the mood > And is actually jamming out tunes?? > #BlessedBoi > Marilyn comes bearing dinner and gossip > “so there's this one crista orc in town who just has the weirdest luck? Like in and out of wild and dangerous situations like it's nothing! Fell off a roof, bounced off an awning, swung down to the ground on a banner and just kept walking!” > #KnickKnackKnonsense > We then canonize both Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton into the history of the Sallesian Realms > also Nova talks about their mom in front of Kirin for apparently the first time > We continue to kick it for a little while after this but for the most part that's the end of the night > See Y'all Next Week!
