EPONA+CHESHIRE VS BARGHEST+ARMIN

[You are whisked away to a small, dark crypt. Torches flicker on the cobweb-covered walls and a mysterious stone altar stands in the center of the room. There are two holes carved into the top of the altar: one is empty, and in the other stands a rod with a team-colored flag attached. Lined up in front of the flag are guns for every member of your team, but you all know instinctively that they're harmless. Hanging on the wall behind the altar is a parchment with the instructions of the game.]

I-I can't believe this...

You... can't believe paintball?

I'm up against Barghest and Mira isn't even playing!

[Picks up paintball gun]

Ah, so that's what it is...

[But yes, picking up a paintball gun too.]

So how are we going to be doing this? Normally you would split it between having a guard team and an attacking team, but there... aren't exactly enough people for that.

[And by paintball I mean silly string pistol]

Ooh.... I don't know... We have to outsmart Armin somehow....

I'm not exactly sure how much outsmarting there is to do, though. The real problem is figuring out how they're going to go. With two on two, it's probably easier to fight directly, but...

[ PICKING UP HIS GUN and just. firing it at nothing. ]

[THAT SURE IS SOME SILLY STRING]

...Well then.

[taking another gun]

. . that's boring.

You mean the guns being harmless? I think it's better than giving everyone actual working weapons.

Rubber bullets or paint guns would've been way cooler.

[Venture outside of your crypts and you'll be back in the cemetery: still dark, still creepy, still covered in thick fog. Your opponent's base is across the graveyard from yours. Go get those flags!

Map
-Green squares and statues in rows are graves.
-Large green diamonds in opposite corners are crypts. Epona is on top left, Barghest is on bottom right.
-Grey rectangles are mausoleums. There are five and they are all open to enter.]

Edited 2014-10-26 00:50 (UTC)

[ stomping through the cemetery. ]

[And Cheshire's heading out of Epona's crypt with the flag, and concealing it in the dirt underneath the tree to hide it.

...Unfortunately a 1 was rolled, so it's not exactly hidden well.]

[This one is lurking nearby with her gun at the ready]

... Geez... We should have put it in a grave...

Should I maybe keep working on it, then?

[Piling more dirt on it, let's try this again...

...At least it's a 2, now?]

...Maybe I'm just really bad at this...

Edited 2014-10-26 02:09 (UTC)

... Um.... keep trying...

Got it, let's try something a bit more...

[Okay, I got a 4 this time, so we're... actually covering it up relatively competently now?]

[Meanwhile, using graves and mausoleums as cover.... this one creeps towards Barghest territory]

[Barghest territory is securely guarded! ...or it is in theory.

because I just rolled a 1, she creeps upon Armin, who happens to be looking the other way and doesn't hear her coming]

[She's been waiting a long time for tgis moment. Specifically, ten minutes, but it's time for the showdown no one was waiting for...]

[Creeping up on him like a creeper, it's time to take a shot, 5]

[Then it's time to dive behind the nearest grave for cover. Friends an hour ago... Enemies now!!11]

Edited 2014-10-26 03:10 (UTC)

[SHOT ~~THROUGH THE HEART~~ WITH SILLY STRING

he wheels around, firing a 6 before ducking behind a statue]

[Rolling a 6, she fires simultaneously, and the shots splat dramatically against each other, hitting no one... presumably, idek how ties go]

Give up, Armin! You're outnumbered! There's nowhere to hide! Also, I'm cuter!
