Taking the wagon back is a means to get you away from Fairy Charmer for private converstion. I'd prefer we not skip over it in its entirety.

Ah. Gotcha. I'll get after it, then.

That's going in the Out Of Context thread.
EDIT: A question for the GM. Hex is supposed to make Dirty Look last for an hour... Could I deliberately choose to use the default version that only affects the next check?

Alternatively...well, Cheerilee doesn't exactly keep to a great school schedule. She basically cancelled class and let the kids have a parade outside to let Applebloom show off her cutie mark(s). Pony education seems...flexible.
Even if it wasn't, half days exist. If there was some holiday, or school thing right after school, they might be able to get out earlier.

You may but you only get one use for the whole day regardless. Also remember that it's not an interrupt.

Re: Fever Enigmatic [PBP Mystery Campaign - Full]
Both of those are fine. The critical part is making it momentary (Which would go largely unnoticed) instead of for an hour (which might raise an eyebrow.)

What are these half days thou speaketh of?
Anyway, I was just going to leave off posting until the meeting Marvellous, unless there was something anyone in particular wanted. Figure walking off a headache/getting the lies straight is best done 'off-screen'.

So, it looks like everybody except Summer and Sunset is heading to the Party. Wondering what kind of situation they are going to run into. An oven monster, maybe?

Bear with me. Multitasking while also playing catchup for not having computer access most of the day.

Reiterating this. Everyone except Summer Wishes and Sunset Stroll is at The Party.

I just noticed, but I don't think Bitter Medicin responded to Sunset's explanation.

You know...
After all the effort you put into getting us in one place, I'm very tempted to deliberately try break up the Party.
Heck, Crystalites got the breaking part started. Let's renovate this bakery!
...oh right, serious time.
You say the locals recognise Sun Rush. What's the local knowledge/gossip about he, and would that require a roll to access?

Now Cavalry...
Don'cha know, you never split the party
Clerics in the back, keep those fighters hale and hearty!
Wizards in the middle, where they can shed some light
And you never let that bucking rogue out of sight!

I solemnly hope that it becomes a Fever Enigmatic tradition that everything important or momentous happens at The Party while Sunset Stroll is back at the clinic.

So all we have to do to keep the town safe is keep Sunset at the Party?
Hmmm....

Fairy would know who she is since she's the mayor and Midnight Clover's wife. Wouldn't know much since she would have left shortly after Charmer arrived. Guess you could roll History.

Initially it was a delay but got busy this weekend. Will get to it though.

Do you not do one-pony shows? If not, who do you work with? There's no theater company in this town.

Oh, right. I thought it might be that, just... got a little confused by the context. Thought it was a reference to her not being a unicorn or something.
Sorry.
Sorry.

Crystalite wrote:I think now is a good time to start it.
What Marvel and I want to do is Take 20 on a Perception check to realize that Fairy Charmer is a changeling. I am willing to spend a Magic Point if that alone isn't enough.
Can I do this? If so, do I need the Magic Point? And could the GM let me know when Marvel starts to realize what the rest of us already know?
While the discovery is a numeric possibility, I can't condone the attempt. It feels like too much of an in-character jump from "that's odd" to assuming someone is a changeling. It's arguably why that particular plot point should have been secret since what a player knows isn't the same as what the character does. On the side of game mechanics, Marvel can't really do a Take 20 since it involves uninterrupted time that she doesn't automatically have considering she's new to the town.
I will acknowledge that the main mystery has started up slowly. Part of me thinks things started wrong while part of me doesn't. While we didn't dive right in, there was a need to get used to the characters and setting. Want things to feel more organic than only existing for the plot. A lot of quirks and reveals so far have been subtle but will hopefully build to more. The one blindside was the school age characters, thus the shift in time.

Re: Fever Enigmatic [PBP Mystery Campaign - Full]
Huh. So, Crystalites.
You really weren't kidding when your background said we can't stop Marvel from staying in the town, were you?
That might be my favourite roll of the game so far.

Worth pointing out that it's an opposed roll.

So far, every interaction she'd had with Fairy had seemed awfully...convenient.
Misfortune arrives in town and the first pony she meets? Fairy Charmer.
Fairy gets herself hurt, and the first pony to respond? Marvellous Misfortune.
And then there was how insistent she was about inspecting the unicorn after her accident.
Watch out everyone, I'm about to try to collapse the meta in on itself.
*ahem*
This post is so meta it's commenting on the meta nature of the potential to comment on the meta nature of a meta post commenting on the nature of previous metagame-influenced actions.
...It's so meta even this acronym.

Eh, it was mostly a joke.
And... Should I post us arriving there, or will you cover that in one of your GM posts? Sorry... Not entirely sure...how to work that...

??? Elaborate please.

You can be there now if you so choose. Pending on where you go, you may see Summer Wishes, though only Fairy Charmer would know who she is of course.
