You do know that Grenth can literally just wreck anyone in the ally, in like a second if he actually cares enough.

You don't need to bring in Henderson when Grenth is literally just going to do something horrifying. In fact it kinda annoys me that you left me out of this completely.

Oh well, he will just take his soul, deform it, and twist it to his purposes. After be deals with the people that prevented him from appointing judgment on the beast before him.

I have no objection, him getting run over by whatever henderson is driving sounded cool and funny, but you can do as you wish to him.

Knick. I'm gonna be perfectly frank with you here.

You're taking Henderson way too seriously. Hell, the only reason I'm scoring this kill is because Franco wanted the Edge Lord dead, Henderson was already going to be looking for a 7-11 (Blame Donkey for that one) and sheer coincidence overall. And that's how Henderson rolls, a hurricane of coincidence and not giving a fuck.

And I am going to be frank with you.

You did it again, determining the outcome before people can respond. I was fine with the car thing with Mordred and didn't do the in character (as in the first thing he could, I had to reason out why he wouldn't do that in character and was able to come up with a reason.) thing of Hamara immediately shooting it to hell, cause Kat wanted a way to get out to the situation that wasn't the one ability that wouldn't have apparently negative consequences.

So I was a nice guy, also it was a funny situation so I put a bit of leeway in there cause I could find a reason for Hamara to NOT shoot it up and just try and kill both them.

The truck itself is something that Grenth could, and is currently able to stop, if not fully at least to a noticeable extent. Example of how you should do it is like what moony did, he threw the spear at the golem rather then just blowing it up himself. During the Lucas, Crest, Arisen fight, we never assumed the attack hit, we let the other person determine the effect. I mean we can call out bullshit if completely implausible, which I would say you should do, but we never assumed something was going to work out the way we thought it might.

Doing that kind of thing gives me a chance to respond, because I know what my character would do. If Grenth had a reason to he could probably stop the spear Ezra threw, but he won't cause he doesn't care. It not shooting at him, instead it is launched at an expendable minion.

A truck speeding at them on the other hand, ya, he gonna do something to top that. Not only is it obvious but it would definitely be dangerous to him. 

And as for taking Henderson too seriously? No, I am taking how you are acting with him as I should. You don't act out situations predetermined what the results will be. You set it up, and see how people react to it. 

You don't chose how it will play out, just as you wouldn't in any other situation, you can try your hardest to set it up, make its chance of succeeding as good as you can, but there are things you can't control.

And that is what annoys me about how you are playing Henderson. Henderson is fine, cause chaos as much as you want, do crazy shit as much as you want.

Just don't assume it will work out the way you set it up when doing something to other players, let people react. 

And as for this case? The truck will definitely explode, but not have as massive effect

And god that was a rant. But I feel like it needed to be said.

Doesn't need to have a massive effect on Grenth and Ezra. Just aiming for Costin. The flare was to give them time to GTFO just as much as it was to blind Costin.

However, I see your point and accept it.

Still gonna keep doing crazy shit, though.

And, in all fairness, with the Hamara thing, I thought they were in an alleyway for some reason, and that Mordred had just leaped out of it, in which case Hamara wouldn't have seen the car except for that split second when Henderson passed directly in front of the alley. My bad on that one.

It doesn't matter who it affects or whatever, you simply can't assume other character's actions. You have to wait for them to make a reply.

Note, however, that that does not apply to minions or familiars. Those you can kill or affect without your opponent posting a response.

Post fixed. Shortened to ending when Henderson gets the truck moving, because I would think it would be fair to assume that no one is going to react until he actually gets going.

I'm posting Mordred at latest before going to bed. It's going to be longer than standard, so I'm preparing myself mentally.

I'm confused again. Who's turn is it between Ezras, Time, Costei, Henderson, and Grenth?

Briarwolves retreated. For now. Time to pick Goblin Fruits and leave the place before they come in larger numbers.

Since it may be relevant for Rebecca, Aki's thoughts are only curiosity about her appearance and the Nexus itself.

Because your not posting Franco we are moving on without your. Grenth sealed off the two sides of the alleyway, all that needs to happen is the explosion.
