ON THE TRAIL
week one



25 characters remaining.


It's May, 1842, and the trail ahead stretches as far as you can see. Your destination still seems like an even farther off dream with as slowly as the wagons go, but at least you have good company... Right? You're traveling through Missouri this week, and it seems like it will be a quiet trip.
WEATHER
Sunday: Hot
Monday: Pleasant
Tuesday: Pleasant
Wednesday: Pleasant
Thursday: Rain
Friday: Rain
Saturday: Fog
This week, suggested activities include Hunting, Wagon Maintenance, and Cooking. On Tuesday, there will also be a chance to ford the Blue River. The river is shallow, and conditions are good. Good luck and safe travels!

[WOW!! RUDE ARTHUR. So rude!! Better attend his viking funeral for that one!]

I suppose we'll just have to figure out what to do when we reach the first milestone, yes?

[Which Charles will not live to see, but at least his legacy will carry on for him...]

[BUT THAT CLOCK IS CURSED.... ... ...]

I guess so. Hopefully it won't take too long. I wasn't expecting an extremely long journey.

[again.]
encored: (a compass to guide my steps)

[CURSED FABULOUSLY!!]

Neither was I, and I don't quite have the patience necessary to trek across an entire country largely by foot.

[Why is he even complaining, he's so light that he's pretty much always allowed in the wagon...]
offspring: (♒ that extra conversation is painfully)

[personal profile] offspring 2014-10-29 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Me neither.

[He rubs the back of his head, shaking it vaguely.]

I could really use Fee and her pegasus right about now. [She sure made the last trek across the country easier???]
encored: (a lot on the mind)

I could really use a jet.

[Of which he has his own because he's a rich brat with random command over parts of the military?? Blood+...]

But anything that flies would do.
offspring: (♒ who is this stranger)

[personal profile] offspring 2014-10-30 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[The hell is a jet.]

...Honestly, even just having our abilities back would be nice. It's really starting to weird me out. Not to mention they had no right to take them in the first place.
encored: (seize the end)

[personal profile] encored 2014-10-31 08:26 am (UTC)(link)
You as well, then?

[A MOMENT OF SERIOUSNESS because he's really pissed about the same thing...]

No one should even be able to, rights aside. At least not in my case.
offspring: (♒ having a really bad hair day today)

[personal profile] offspring 2014-11-01 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
Ah...yes, magic, that is. I'm a mage.

[Hence why the burning at the stake thing was so bothersome.]

But... even if it shouldn't have been, they did it somehow... we have to get it back.
encored: (no demands)

[personal profile] encored 2014-11-01 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps we should have held as many of those townsfolk hostage as possible until they actually gave us some answers.

[Reasons why Charles was not made a wagon leader...]
offspring: (♒ how about no)

[personal profile] offspring 2014-11-03 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[??????]

What? Why is that even an option in your head?!
encored: (no demands)

[personal profile] encored 2014-11-04 08:49 am (UTC)(link)
[GIVING HIM A LOOK.]

Why isn't it an option in yours? It would have been efficient.
offspring: (♒ HYAAAH magic battle time)

[They're liberators back home, okay, not tyrants.]

Do you want everyone to hate us even more?
