"He looks pretty normal to me." “He’s radiating heat, but he doesn’t seem hostile.” Yet. Quietly, she asked, “Why are you here, Tinker?” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Spirit he/him Posted May 24 Report Share Posted May 24 15 minutes ago, Unintelligenius said: Instincts from years on the streets kick in as Quelkin jumps back and starts to circle around his opponent, testing him with quick jabs to the left and right. Lets hope this doesn't turn hand to hand Quelkin thinks as he continues to circle his opponent. He knew how to fight hand to hand but he was much more experienced in fighting with quarterstaff. If only I had some pewter he thought. @Lord Spirit Kresh easily deflects his jabs and makes a swing at his opponents legs. the stick was a bit unwieldy, but he would make the best of his situation. He had trained in several forms of combat, but he wasn't used to his lack of power. 16 minutes ago, Spark of Hope said: “I can only think of two things that make sense - a mutt or a sponsorship.” Quote FTR, Merp is ferret from the cytoverse games. He's friendly towards tributes and is pretty much the most wholesome thing thats come out of these games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmilingPanda19 of the female/variety Posted May 24 Report Share Posted May 24 Merp had fallen asleep in the blanket, cuddling close to her. He was actually neither of those things but you wouldn't know that... you would never expect an immortal, world hopping, teleporting ferret. Never. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grenades, specifically." After he made sure the mud - clay - was drying well, he tore off the lower part of his left sleeve and began ripping it into small strips of fabric. "These will be the fuses," he explained. "You have one end inside a clay ball of spores, the other outside. If you soak the outer end, the water will flow through the cloth and into the spores, activating them." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Why don't you trust me?" Mark asks. "Is it because I came from the casino? Do you have a problem with gambling? If so, then that's no reason not to trust me. I didn't know it was a casino, and I left soon after I went in. I just needed to warm up a bit." (Still completely lying.) "Hey, let me try and prove it to you. I have a trick that my great-great-great-great-great-great-uncle pulled when he was put in the games. His name was Arc." Mark turns around, searching for a hidden camera. "Any of the Gamemakers watching this? If so, tell me. I'd like to have a little chat." He says the final word with extreme derision.
