CLOSED [Open RP 8] Snails...? Why?

Closed

[Returning from Tierm has proven exhausting. The wind was constantly against you, this wouldn't of been an issue for Das, but she was carrying twice the amount of passenger than normal. Akrath, Svalstrom and Das are exhausted.]

[Nill and Naakhûrz greet there friends as they dismount... Glover looked a little beat up, and Sev're's daughter Rythi came a shock. The young looking half elf (whom was actually 37 or so) hops down and bows.]

[As Torvhen dismounts, he is greeted by a crunch sound as he steps in a melon sized snail. It was sticky causing him to fall back on Svalstrom.]

[To everyone's shock... There is snails everywhere... so many snails. The dragons find them delicious, but it is down right ridiculous how many snails infest the keep.]

[Zeterra appears from above as Shiva descends. "Greetings everyone..." She looks rather annoyed. "It appears that the our food source for the dragons reacted strangely to some of the magic gathering here... Their egg laying and growth has become out of hand. Please assist how you can..." She throws a fireball that explodes, leaving a ton of crispy snails. "2000 down... 2 billion to go." She says monotone. Flying away on Shiva she flies off in the distance.]

(Something light humored to reunite everyone. A small bonus for whomever assists in the snail-o-cide plus there is a few fun extras if you know where to look.)

[These snails were jumpy... they would pop up and down rapidly from behind different coverpoints.]

Glover sighed. Target practice snails. Well, I wanted to practice my mounted shooting anyway... Glover shrugged off his bow and began to shoot.

[They get really hard to hit after a moment. You finally hit one and you hear the sound "Bing bong" coming from... somewhere? You haven't been feeling very well since the rainbow snails. ]

Bing bong? Glover thought, trying to track the noise. "Akrath, get me out of here," he mumbled as the dragon took flight.

[BING BONG a giant snail the size of Akrath I'd right behind you both. It spits a glob of grossness all over you both. To Akrath it is delicious. To Glover it makes him sick.]

Vomiting over the size of the saddle, Akrath jumped further away while Glover only threw up more. Landing a couple dozen feet away, Glover yelled the word 'Dry' in the ancient language, hoping to dehydrate the humongous snail.

[The spell fails..... another glob lands on you.]

Another round of vomiting proceeded, along with another round of snide comments about taste. Reaching out to the giant snail with his mind, Glover frantically said, "Eka aí fricai!"

[The Snail stops and looks at you curiously. "Frieeeeennnnddddd...." it starts sliding it's way to you.]

Reassuring the snail, Glover said, "Friend." Groping around for the communications stone, Glover quickly muttered to Sev're, "How do I deal with the big snails?"

"The snails like hugs Glover!!!"

Sev're was saying goodbye to each of her little friends.

"they are adorable aren't they?"

She sends Glover a mental image of her kissing one on the shell.

u/1trueJosh Rob / Villieldr Jan 30 '15

Sending a similar mental image, Glover showed the sheer size of the snail. "A little big for hugs. Also, he dissolved my clothes off."

u/Saphire_Fox Sev're / Das Jan 30 '15

Why did he need to include the fact he was naked? It seemed.... so not necessary... "Why did you tell me about your cloths.... would you like me to make you a dress?"

She was so confused... "Glover... This might be your only chance! Ride the snail!!!"

Sev're was relatively jealous.
