Log:V4 Session 101 (Meta, no ontology)

Tempest - Yesterday at 10:21 PM [Session start ; Session #101] Welcome back to the Mazes, Adam. On the last session, you finished shopping - mostly selling, in fact, at the Joliet Sector gun shop. The next move is up to you. Auro - Yesterday at 10:23 PM Well. Last time, the gun store had no ammo in 12 gauge... Well, time to check if the other store has 12 gauge ammo, or if they're all sold out. Tempest - Yesterday at 10:25 PM To the weapon shop, in that case? Auro - Yesterday at 10:26 PM Yes, so onwards! Tempest - Yesterday at 10:28 PM [Joliet Sector - Weapon shop] Only 3 rooms later, and you're at the weapon shop in town. Not many customers at 9 in the morning, but at least it's open, and ready for business. Auro - Yesterday at 10:30 PM Time to see if the store had any 12 gauge, so the Kitsune would ask to see if they got any in stock Tempest - Yesterday at 10:32 PM [Shop owner] I'll go and check, wait one, please. [Shop owner] You're in luck, I have some 12 gauge ammo left in stock. I hope you're hungry for lots. < Joliet Sector - Weapon shop >

[Ammunition for sale]

12 gauge - 3 boxes (10 rounds per box) and 1 bulk can (200 rounds per can) for sale Standard brand: 3 boxes, 1 bulk can > Standard Rubber Baton (R-Slug): 3 boxes - 30 P$ ea. > Standard Plated Buckshot (P-Buck): 1 bulk can - 1400 P$

Plus other calibers for sale... (request to see the rest of the inventory) Auro - Yesterday at 10:43 PM "Nice - can I see how much is in the can of plated buck?" Tempest - Yesterday at 10:43 PM [Shop owner] 200 shells. Twenty boxes. Auro - Yesterday at 10:45 PM "Ooh... I think that would last for a very long time. Although I'll have to pay using my bank balance, though." Tempest - Yesterday at 10:46 PM [Shop owner] That's not a problem. Will that be all you're buying today? Auro - Yesterday at 10:47 PM "Yeah, just that for now," the Kitsune replied. Tempest - Yesterday at 10:48 PM You've transferred 1400 P$ from your account to the weapon shop. In turn, you received this: [Ammunition] Bulk can of 12 gauge, Standard Plated Buckshot, 200 rounds - [200/200] - Weight: 10 (0.05 per round) [Shop owner] Thank you! I thought I'd never sell that. Bank balance: 1351 P$ Auro - Yesterday at 10:50 PM "Well, now you have," the Kitsune noted as he popped the can into his backpack. Tempest - Yesterday at 10:53 PM BP/Main: 87.7 /100 [Shop owner] Have fun with that! Auro - Yesterday at 10:56 PM And now... It was possibly time to have some food and drink before heading back to Arnet to hand over the dragon meat. Tempest - Yesterday at 10:58 PM Need a reminder on the places in Joliet where you can eat/drink? Auro - Yesterday at 10:59 PM Yeah Tempest - Yesterday at 11:06 PM < Joliet Sector - Town Map (partial)>

   The Trattoria there is called Pastageddon.

Auro - Yesterday at 11:11 PM Well, off to the Flying Noodle. Again. At least this time, he wouldn't run into that adventurer... Tempest - Yesterday at 11:16 PM You departed from the Weapon shop, 1400 P$ poorer, but armed with 200 more shells... You walked 13 rooms to the Flying Noodle Café, reaching its hall, once again. To the east is the bar counter room. Auro - Yesterday at 11:18 PM Off to the bar counter to sit down and... What's the current state of food and water right now? Tempest - Yesterday at 11:21 PM The barkeep waits for new customers. [Nutrition: 1190 ntri - OK] [Hydration: 529 wtr - OK] Auro - Yesterday at 11:24 PM The Kitsune sat down at the bar, and checks the menu for food and drink to eat in Tempest - Yesterday at 11:27 PM [Barkeep] Hey there, champ. Weren't you the dude that went with Eckhart a while ago? Auro - Yesterday at 11:28 PM "Yeah... While you won't be seeing him again, I believe I owe a round of drinks, because he was right. He was fucking right about the dragons..." Tempest - Yesterday at 11:31 PM [Barkeep] Oh, man, you just made a couple of people happy... If you're saying what I'm thinking you're saying. Hope he didn't get you hurt or screwed up too much, though. Now that he's gone, I can speak my mind freely... Good riddance! Auro - Yesterday at 11:33 PM "Well, he actually did kill me, but..." The Kitsune then showed the LifeVest he was wearing. "...I got better. Unlike him, as last I saw, he was bleeding out badly. Anyway, a round of drinks on me." Tempest - Yesterday at 11:34 PM [Barkeep] Oh, my Gods. I'm so sorry. [Barkeep] Forget about that, my friend, I'm giving you a drink on the house. But just one, eh? Now, what'll you have? Auro - Yesterday at 11:36 PM "Well, I'm also going to get something to eat, but... I think I might have some booze, even though it's early in the morning.' Tempest - Yesterday at 11:37 PM [Barkeep] Wrong place if you were hungry, but I can take care of the drinking needs. What's your poison? > Alcoholic drinks > Soft drinks > Hot drinks > Cocktails Auro - Yesterday at 11:38 PM >Alcoholic drinks Tempest - Yesterday at 11:41 PM Drinks available on tap: Beer (blonde ale), Beer (brown ale), Beer (stout), Cider, Red wine, Champagne, Sake, Vodka, Mead, Brandy, Whiskey, Absinthe Auro - Yesterday at 11:42 PM "A glass of Sake, please," the Kitsune noted. Tempest - Yesterday at 11:45 PM [Barkeep] Sure thing. A shot glass full of sake is quickly served before you - and it's free, just this time! Auro - Yesterday at 11:47 PM The Kitsune quickly downs the shot of Sake. Tempest - Yesterday at 11:48 PM +134 ntri, +26 wtr +2.0 Inebriation. You feel a nice buzz already... It's not sufficient yet to start REALLY relaxing, but you can feel it, at least. [Barkeep] Feels like home, huh? <Amused smile.> Auro - Yesterday at 11:52 PM "Yeah, it does. How much are they normally per shot?" Tempest - Yesterday at 11:52 PM [Barkeep] Nine bucks. Feel free to order some more, I've got plenty of time before the lunch rush, anyway... Auro - Yesterday at 11:53 PM The Kitsune puts eighteen coins on the table. "Make it a double, then." Tempest - Yesterday at 11:54 PM You paid 18 brass coins in exchange for two more shots, which are filled up before you. 698 brass coins left in the money pouch. (698.95 P$, 7.04 /20) [Barkeep] Here ya go, friend. Auro - Yesterday at 11:55 PM The Kitsune nodded before taking both shots and downing them. Tempest - Yesterday at 11:57 PM And just like that, two more shots went down! +268 ntri, +52 wtr, +4.0 Inebriation, and 2 turns spent... You're tipsy. Theeeeere you go. Now it's starting to feel just right... Stress is now melting away at a rate of 0.2% per turn. [Nutrition: 1589 ntri - OK] [Hydration: 604 wtr - OK] [Inebriation: 5.7 / 30% - Tipsy] [Fatigue: 12.1% - OK] [Stress: 25.6% - Moderate] The barkeep lets out an amused chuckle. [Barkeep] See, that's more like it! Auro - Yesterday at 11:59 PM "Ahh... Nothing like a few shots of Sake... I missed drinking this," the Kitsune noted, relaxing a bit. Tempest - Yesterday at 11:59 PM [Barkeep] There's more where that came from, but take it easy, champ! June 3, 2018 Auro - Today at 12:01 AM "I know, I know. I'm not going to drink myself drunk, but sometimes I need a buzz to relax and such." Tempest - Today at 12:02 AM [Barkeep] Friend, I'm the last person to judge. My business IS getting people drinks. Everybody needs some happy hour at some point, yanno? Auro - Today at 12:03 AM "Yeah, indeed. I just hope this will last until I get to Arnett." Tempest - Today at 12:03 AM [Barkeep] You wanna buy a li'l extra for the road? I sell the bottles, too. Just in case. Auro - Today at 12:05 AM "Yeah, sure. How much for a bottle of Sake?" Tempest - Today at 12:05 AM [Barkeep] Forty-five bucks. Enough for five full shot glasses. Or five swigs, if you drink on the road. Top quality, made in the northeast. Auro - Today at 12:07 AM "I'll buy one, then," the Kitsune noted. Tempest - Today at 12:10 AM Pay in brass coins again? Auro - Today at 12:11 AM Yes Tempest - Today at 12:12 AM 653 brass coins left. (Money pouch: 653.95 P$ / 6.59/20 units) [Food] Beverage - Bottle of sake. 134 ntri, 26 wtr per part [5/5 parts] - Alcoholic (Inebriation +2.0 per part) - Addictive (Alcohol) - Weight: 1 [Barkeep] And one fresh bottle of sake for my youkai friend. Stay safe on the road, y'hear? Auro - Today at 12:13 AM The Kitsune nodded before putting the bottle in his belt if he had room. Tempest - Today at 12:14 AM You do! [Utility belt: 5 /8] While in a tipsy state, you are less accurate (FT+1), but you're also relaxing (Stress - 0.2%/turn, as long as you're Tipsy). Auro - Today at 12:19 AM Well, not that it'll matter about the accuracy, as the Kitsune will head towards Arnett by way of I18 and Semitas at skip speed. Tempest - Today at 12:32 AM (( Whoop, sorry, I missed that last one. (( I'm on it. You leave the Flying Noodle Café, traveling towards the town's exit - 11 rooms. Then, you depart into the UA, first deciding to travel to I-18, then from I-18 to Semitas, and lastly, Semitas to Arnett; three trips you plan on SKIPping. Is that correct? Auro - Today at 12:34 AM (Well, had posted it, then accidentally removed it when I tried to edit it.) Tempest - Today at 12:34 AM (( No I mean I didn't reply as soon as I wanted to. Auro - Today at 12:35 AM Yes, although may pause in Semitas if I lose the buzz to take a swig of Sake. Tempest - Today at 12:35 AM Alright, we'll resolve each trip one by one, then. First, Joliet - I-18, Skip route. You travel for 20 rooms and 1 hour 40 minutes... You reach Intersection 18 from the west, and make it to West Street 3 without problems. Your Inebriation levels fell to 2.5 (13.2%) by that point, and now you're merely buzzed. Do you wish to continue your route to Semitas, or make a stop here? Auro - Today at 12:51 AM Well, it depends on what is always open here, and if they would serve sake. If not, then... It depends on how much Stress I have now. Tempest - Today at 12:52 AM current Stress is 22.2%. As for current shops open, one sec. < Intersection 18 - Map > Open 24/7: Rest stop, Takeout stand, Public toilets, Public showers Currently open: Restaurant [Dim sum] That's all for I-18, at least for today. Auro - Today at 12:58 AM Then I'll head on to the next part. Tempest - Today at 1:00 AM Alright. You travel east - 6 rooms, to East Street 3, in order to head on to the next destination... You're now skip-traveling to Semitas, and the trip lasts 12 rooms and 1 hour... You still feel buzzed, but that's going away soon. Back to Semitas's gap corridor... Auro - Today at 1:09 AM And quickly back in to get to Arnett. Tempest - Today at 1:14 AM You skip-travel to Arnett. The trip lasts 29 rooms and 2 hours 25 minutes. You completely sobered up while walking all the way back to your starting point. It's now 2:05 PM, and you made it back to the gap corridor of that town. Auro - Today at 1:16 AM And then, off to the reason I came here. Time to hand in that meat I caught, and get paid for completing that mission. Tempest - Today at 1:16 AM Reputation check: +0 Rep in Arnett, you're clear to enter the town. You travel all the way back to Bill's Burgers, the diner in this town, traveling the 11 rooms to get directly to the kitchen. The restaurant is full of customers, mostly locals, and the kitchen smells of fries and meat being cooked and grilled. Auro - Today at 1:19 AM "I'm back! Although it was after getting killed in a way, but not by what I got the meat from," the Kitsune noted as he would unload the meat from his bag. All 25 units of it. Tempest - Today at 1:22 AM (( On my count, you have 20 units of raw baby dragon meat. (( You tossed everything else, if I remember correctly. (( It's still enough to complete the quest though. Auro - Today at 1:23 AM (I knew it was 20-odd meat. Couldn't remember how many though) Tempest - Today at 1:23 AM [Bill] Ah, it's you, mate! Oh, gosh, finally. I was on my last reserves. You saved the evening rush! And a good deal of the week too! [Bill] As agreed, 400 P$ for it, okay? I'll wire that to your account real fast. Auro - Today at 1:25 AM "Yep. And that's dragon meat, actually. Actual dragon meat." Tempest - Today at 1:25 AM [Bill] Veeeery nice! You did good, my friend! 400 P$ have been deposited in your account. Bank balance: 1751 P$. Sidequest S1-3: Come a Huntin' Man: Complete! Backpack/Main: 67.7 /100 [Reputation] Arnett Reputation +100 The locals of Arnett are acquainted with your name, and they think of you in mostly favorable terms. Auro - Today at 1:28 AM (My sheet had said 25 units though, but... Eh, it doesn't matter now. Anyway, it's time to call it.) "Indeed. And thanks for the lesson." Tempest - Today at 1:28 AM [Bill] Anytime! And remember, I'll accept any game meat you bring, and other restaurants will, as well. So feel free to keep hunting, it's good money if you do it often enough! [Session end ; Session #101]
