Social diseases and pissed off DM
Subject On the run
The group packs up and heads out. After the group has gone several miles and the progress seems steady, Salix takes the opportunity to ride up to the side of the Lady Rochelle again. A little sad that the bad news in their last conversation had left her depressed, Salix wants to cheer her up, especially after the shared vision, which seems to have dampened everyone's spirits.
"So you say we're practically neighbors," he begins hopefully but he appears to have jostled Rochelle out of deep thought. She stares at him a moment as if not recognizing him. "The Great North Forest?" he offers. "You said we're practically neighbors. Do you know much of The Forest?"

Subject On the run
Harp will ride along quietly, trying to not draw attention to himself. He will keep to the rear of the group as usual. If he gets a chance, he will talk to Surin, thanking him for his support in the altercation with Kal. If pressed, he will express some of his frustration but will not go into an all out rant. He will have his crossbow loaded and at his side, his other weapons sheathed.

Subject Turn
I just got done with an 1-1/2 hour webcast by a potential customer, most of you would recognize the name if I said it, and they basically said that they want us to do every thing for them for no additional cost so that we can help them survive in the market. This as our margins are shrinking to almost nothing.
So you all die when the meteor strike hits. Don't blame me. Blame our customers.

Subject pity party
OOC: I've been hearing you bitch about your margins for the last 7 years. You sound like a farmer - when the weather is good, there is too much crop and prices stink. When the weather is bad, prices are good, but there is no crop. But smart people still seem to be able to make a living farming.
Suck it up and get back to work you baby.
Sort of IC: Harp hears a tune playing in his head. It sounds oddly like the Death March from the memorial service held for deceased members of the Order. Why would that tune come unbidden to him at this time. What could have caused that?? Makes you go Hmmmmmm....

Equine VD will be the least of our troubles if we rile him up.

Subject Surin and Harp
Tall Twin, if you want to RP the conversation that's cool. If not, we can just go with this summary of Surin's response.
Surin seems a little relieved when Harp thanks him for piping up. He'd spoken out in the heat of anger, and afterward hadn't been certain that Harp would have appreciated being spoken for in that way.
Surin will ride along, throwing axe at the ready, scanning the wilderness around them as they ride. He doesn't really expect much interference from the man in the dream yet, but he's keeping an eye out nonetheless.
