Hedge Patrol VI 2 Electric Boogaloo

[Saber Sloth]

Then just like that, Circe finishes up, and she manages to snag a few claws from the trap with quick, efficient motions. She - they still need to carry it all to where they're going and back home.

Paused in a crossroads the Lost try and decide where they want to go, forward towards the possible threat of more briar wolves, or towards the cloying pink scent. Or maybe, back home with their loot to try again another day.

Circe you can do an Int + Resolve to remember anything Pink that would stand out to her

[Circe]

"I do have a first aid kit," she whacks her pack with the rifle stock, "Medical tape and gauss could do in a pinch ta secure it. Save the strings ta make our foes sing the song of pain."

As for the scent's source as an option? Well, "We can't really harvest more wolf. But hands free ya'd be lacking fer a fight at the start, so there is that too. Bungee and empty bags," she nods to herself, "Or we can just ditch it in a fight," she didn't care really. "Course, there is the option of scout, drop off hunt, and scout again."

Truly, the Summer Queen was fine with many of the options. She came equipped for a fight, though not for loot. Live and learn beats dead and ignorant. But what the hell had smelled pink in the Hedge before? Without resorting to LSD type goblin fruit?

[Vincent Black]

Vincent thinks for a moment before saying, "I think we should take our spoils and go store them. We can always return here and follow the trail later." Vincent was sure that this haul would allow for them to get some hedgespun gear, so it would be best not to waste it.

[Jasper]

Jasper is still a bit distracted by that smell.. He's a hound on a scent and a very large part of the very large Beast wants to go sprint off after that smell to see where it's coming from but he has enough of his mind to not do that. "Ah don't mind carrying it none, either way, whether we're headin' on or headin' back." he says, sniffing at the air again and licking his nose. It's going to be hard clearing that cloying pink from his senses either way.

He moves to pick up the bundle of fur and bits, lifting it up carefully and giving a small glance towards what was left of the briar wolf before he straightens back up. "Your lead, boss lady."

It takes Circe a long moment for her mind to connect the dots. Almost like something was preventing her from doing it. But Circe is stubborn and pierces through the fog, and beside some psychedelic hedge fruit, the only thing coming to mind as pink is Ambrosial Delights. She doesn't know exactly where within the Market, she can't smell pink scent herself, but if she was looking for someone/place that would leave behind a pink smell stuck to hedge beast traps it would be that Market of Monsters.

If Circe wants to power through and try and guess where exactly you can give me another Int + Resolve, and if you want to guess at why it's hard to remember Int + Occult please!

[Circe]

"Oooooh," Circe feels like dope slapping herself yet refrains as the helmet would hurt. Well, the combat gloves would protect her hands. Okay, it just wouldn't work due to armor, alright? Good. "Pink. Has ta be the goblin market," she looks to the trap, "Guess that musta been the hob version of a furrier's work."


Yes, Circe was getting better educated.


If the scent was pink in that direction, it was a trail that lead to Ambrosial Delights. She points toward that path the puppy boys were sniffing out for PINK, "Ambrosial Delights. Very pink goblin market. We don't have a lot ta trade with 'em right now," she pats her rifle, "NOT trading this," and nods towards the harvested briarwolf bundle, "Plus the furrier might be irked we got that. Yes," she nods, "Best ta store it first before visiting the market. My Hollow. Probably have stuff we could trade if we wanna check it out. Or make something, hit up a sports store ta have football pads ta sell, whatevs."


It was best to have something to trade when visiting a Goblin Market. Window shopping wasn't appreciated without the power to back it up. If the boys had been kitted like Circe? That'd do.


Circe turns to lead them towards her place, thinking of the goblin market, "I'll give ya the four hundred eleven on the place. Though, if ya have been ta a hob goblin yard sale before, much the same."

No? She wasn't sure which it was specifically. Well, she knew where the meat and bones would most likely end up, twas where she got her bones for the most part.

[Vincent Black]

Vincent nods at the suggestion to stop at the hollow to get stuff to trade. It has been a while since he had visited a hollow. "Lead the way Circe, I have a feeling we should drop the goods off at your hollow anyway."

Vincent was pretty sure they were making the right play here. It is not often that you come upon a Goblin yardsale.

[Saber Sloth]

Circe focuses inward, passed the pink fog that's between her and answers, thinking perhaps, one of the Petals, or close to the white walled center? She doesn't know for sure but it's deep in the depths of the Market.

If you want to drop stuff off, we can wrap this scene, and open a new one for Ambrosial Delights, or the Briar Wolves/Finding other traps. Or wrap it, and take a break for now, so you guys have a few social scenes and maybe recruit others who're interested in this,

[Circe]

ooc A lot of Circe's scenes just closed. I am down for ending this scene in any fashion. A break, a new thread, garnering trade items before new thread, whatevs. I am copacetic to all.

[Vincent Black]

OOC: I am totally ready to close this thread and start a new one whether it is getting stuff to trade or collecting others to patrol and hunt down the other briar wolves.
