[00:00:00] Speaker A: You're listening to the show about air pinions and custom tats. It's pork fried dice. I'm Eric, and I'm the dungeon master. [00:00:12] Speaker B: I'm Abby, and I play Rufina. [00:00:15] Speaker C: I'm Alex, and I play Batblack. [00:00:18] Speaker D: I'm kt and I play will. [00:00:21] Speaker E: I'm Adam and I play Roscoe. [00:00:27] Speaker A: Hold on to your haversacks. Let's roll. [00:00:33] Speaker D: You need a directionality to your distraction. [00:00:36] Speaker F: Honestly, you know me. I'm a crapshoot. [00:00:38] Speaker D: Fuck. Uh, yeah. What do we do? [00:00:40] Speaker F: But not as much as the albatross is, if you know what I mean. [00:00:45] Speaker A: That's pretty good. [00:00:47] Speaker D: Am I right? That was pretty good. [00:00:50] Speaker F: Hey, I'm here all week. It's a cruise. [00:00:58] Speaker A: Do comedians on cruise ships say that? [00:01:00] Speaker D: I'm here all week. [00:01:01] Speaker A: I'm here all week. [00:01:02] Speaker D: It's a cruise. It's a cruise. It's a cruise. [00:01:06] Speaker E: If I ever am an entertainer, the cruise. I'm gonna totally say that. I was picturing Christmas carol. [00:01:12] Speaker D: Me too. I just love. It's, like, my favorite story. I love it. Ever since I was a kid. It's my favorite, and it was funny. [00:01:20] Speaker E: A Christmas carol for you, but with, like, Roscoe, Bathwick, and Rafina being the three different ghosts. [00:01:25] Speaker D: Oh, my God, I love that so much. Like, I recently, only very recently realized, like, why? Because I was trying to, like, self analyze and be like, why do I love this story so much? To the point where everyone who I ever, like, whoever who brings up that story, I'm like, oh, my God, I need to tell you how much I love it. And, like, everyone's always, like, a little scared afterwards. It literally happened at the parade of lights. Except that lady, Catherine. I think she's just as enthusiastic about the story as I am, and she has her own favorite movie anyway. Oh, my God. I completely got off my own point. [00:02:02] Speaker B: Was that you were the. [00:02:03] Speaker D: Oh, I yelled at you. [00:02:04] Speaker B: Yeah, I don't think you yelled at me. [00:02:09] Speaker D: I, like, was just so enthusiastic, and I was like, how do they take out the song that teaches little children in the audience about how much you have to choose love and not money and not other things? Love. And. And then I. And then I. Oh, the realization. I had this. I want Adam to know, because I did tell you, Abby, right? Like, that I had a recent, like, personality realization. Just that. I think the reason that it has always been so powerful to me is that I love the idea of rich, powerful assholes having ghosts come yell at them until they actually are, like, what an asshole. I have been. Look at all these horrible mistakes I made, and then they change and then they benefit humanity. Right. It is like. So. [00:03:00] Speaker A: It is. [00:03:01] Speaker D: It is part of my, like, problem with the entire world. And just like, that, nobody ever gets, like, there's no justice. It makes me so mad. [00:03:08] Speaker E: You're gonna, I think, probably hate this, but I have always had this idea for, like, a movie about what I would say is, like, like, the. The patriarch or, like, the head pastor of, like, a Westboro Baptist church, like, kind of church. Like, somebody who has just spewed hatred. [00:03:33] Speaker D: Yes. [00:03:34] Speaker E: And, like. But is visited by, like, I love that. Like, a ghost or, like, a vision of, like, her. His, like, deceased wife or something. Something. Right. And, like, I just think that the world would benefit from an actual, like. Like, a depiction of what it might take. What it would take and what it might look like. [00:03:57] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:03:57] Speaker E: For somebody with that mindset. [00:04:00] Speaker D: Yes. [00:04:01] Speaker E: To actually have to change and think through it. Like, let's see an example of it. [00:04:05] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:04:05] Speaker E: And it's not to. Not to, like, humanize them. [00:04:10] Speaker D: Right. Like, society. Look, there are people too, but just, like, just we. [00:04:17] Speaker E: We need to be able to, like, have it, like, an imagination about, like, what could this look like, right. Like, they need, like, people with hate in their hearts. [00:04:27] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:04:28] Speaker E: Need to see an example of, like, what it might look like. [00:04:32] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:04:32] Speaker E: And feel, like, for them to start, like, deconstructing that. [00:04:35] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:04:36] Speaker E: And maybe. Maybe, like, maybe it sucks to, like, have it rely on a ghost. [00:04:43] Speaker B: Well, I mean, I don't think it sucks to have to rely on a ghost. I mean, that's a lot of art, is. We have to start in a sort of a fantasy place. Yeah, yeah, I don't. Yeah. And I love that. [00:04:56] Speaker D: Just come. [00:04:56] Speaker A: But. [00:04:56] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, yeah. [00:05:02] Speaker E: I just think that would be really interesting. Like, especially the. The unfolding, like. Like. Like, dynamics in a family of, like, what, the children of the patriarch, how they react and how the grandchildren react. And, like, there might be one or two family members who have been, like, separated, ostracized, who now the patriarch reconnects with and, like, you know, like a queer grandchild or something. I don't know. I think that'd be a cool screenplay. [00:05:30] Speaker F: No poor fried dice listeners can steal it. [00:05:33] Speaker E: This is a trademark. [00:05:34] Speaker D: Don't worry. We will sell Patreon level of a million dollars, and then you'll have a million dollars because somebody will buy. Basically buy the rights to make them. [00:05:44] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, and I don't know if you said it this explicitly, Katie, but what you did say last night, was that. That was what you really hoped for, Will? Because that's where this whole conversation started. [00:05:57] Speaker D: Yeah. No, that is what I said, abby. I said, I, like, hope for that arc. Like, that's the kind of arc that I want for Will. I want that. [00:06:06] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:06:06] Speaker D: Who knows? [00:06:07] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:06:07] Speaker D: I don't know if I'm a good enough role player to accomplish it and get certain stuff an old, I believe in you personality crutches anyway. All right. [00:06:20] Speaker A: Okay. [00:06:21] Speaker D: Let's explore and distract. Explore. Okay. [00:06:24] Speaker B: Distract, distract. [00:06:25] Speaker D: Explore. Distracted. [00:06:29] Speaker A: All right, so just open that window for me. I'll fly out. Or do you want me to wait here? [00:06:36] Speaker B: You're leaving us? How will we contact you? [00:06:40] Speaker A: I mean, I'll be around, but also, I could just wait here. I don't care. [00:06:44] Speaker D: What do you. What are we supposed to do when we find the thing? [00:06:47] Speaker A: Free. [00:06:47] Speaker F: I think it was supposed to just free it. Dead or alive. [00:06:50] Speaker D: He said, wait. So if it's young dead, why isn't that. [00:06:53] Speaker B: They didn't say dead or alive. [00:06:54] Speaker D: Dead or alive. Amazing. [00:06:56] Speaker B: Free the dead creature. Off you go, plop. [00:07:00] Speaker D: Yeah, well, free death is type of freedom. Says boy. Wow. Mo summing moe. [00:07:10] Speaker B: There were no those. [00:07:11] Speaker D: I guess I just wondered, because I've heard that sometimes birds, when they're little or something, they can't fly. This is, like, a young one, but it can fly. We're sure we don't have to fucking help it somewhere. It can just take off. If we let it out, it should be fine. Or also, don't these things eat people? I mean, isn't that why we have this small one? [00:07:29] Speaker E: Eric, is your mic on? [00:07:31] Speaker A: This is a small one. [00:07:33] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:07:34] Speaker D: Like, how small? Like cat sized or you. [00:07:38] Speaker A: Don't worry. [00:07:39] Speaker D: Don't worry. [00:07:40] Speaker A: It's not gonna eat you guys. [00:07:43] Speaker D: That sounds like something a bullshit God would say. Now, I am convinced this absolutely is one of these gods from this new world we're exploring, because. Did you hear that? [00:07:55] Speaker A: It's too small to eat you. [00:07:57] Speaker D: It's too small to eat if it. [00:07:59] Speaker A: Eats one of you, I will give Roscoe a new quarter staff. [00:08:03] Speaker D: No, thanks. [00:08:04] Speaker B: Why does Roscoe be the Roscoe the only one who will benefit from any of this? [00:08:09] Speaker F: I'm the only one who made requests. [00:08:12] Speaker D: I kind of made a request, but I just did. I wasn't specifically. [00:08:16] Speaker A: I got. You okay with. Stop it. [00:08:20] Speaker D: I get it. [00:08:21] Speaker B: I. I want Rafina as a request. Rufina. Ruffina. I'm Rafina. Rafina. [00:08:26] Speaker A: Aren't we past the tat session? [00:08:29] Speaker B: I'm just saying. In in case it's possible, I would like a barristers wig. [00:08:35] Speaker A: What's that? [00:08:37] Speaker B: You know, the wig. [00:08:39] Speaker A: I don't know. That's why I asked. [00:08:42] Speaker B: Oh. It's a wig that arguers get to wear. It's curly and white. [00:08:48] Speaker A: A curly white wig. Okay. [00:08:52] Speaker B: When you go to the wig store, ask for a barrister's wig. They'll know. [00:08:57] Speaker F: And make sure you don't accidentally get a barista's wig. I made that mistake way too many times in my life. [00:09:05] Speaker D: A barista's wig. Amazing. It's blue. It's blue? Mm hmm. [00:09:12] Speaker A: What size did you have to get? Venti. [00:09:16] Speaker D: It's bentian blue. [00:09:18] Speaker A: That was a big head joke at Roscoe's expense. [00:09:21] Speaker F: I loved it. [00:09:22] Speaker D: I loved it. All right. [00:09:25] Speaker B: Okay. I'm gonna go find the captain. [00:09:28] Speaker D: Oh, well, I mean, I think that we should just stand at different parts of the hallway, but. Yeah. Where do you think the captain is? Damn. Where he up with the games? Wait, are games still happening? How long has this been? Is this the middle of games? Out of character. Sorry. [00:09:44] Speaker A: Well, I mean, the games kind of ended because. [00:09:49] Speaker D: Oh, that's right. [00:09:50] Speaker A: With a bird. [00:09:51] Speaker D: He did the obstacle course, and then. Was that it? Like, he didn't imply that there was anything else. Fishing contests, there were other. And then an albatross chat everywhere. I was just trying to remember what. Is anyone waiting for us? [00:10:04] Speaker A: 95% of the participants left. [00:10:07] Speaker D: Okay. [00:10:08] Speaker A: And including him. [00:10:09] Speaker D: So anyone could be milling about is really what you're saying? Cause that's what I'm asking. [00:10:13] Speaker A: Could be. [00:10:14] Speaker D: All right, should we find people first and, you know, like. Or just stand in the hallway and communicate about who's coming? Hmm. [00:10:25] Speaker B: Let's stay together for a little bit and see if we can, en masse, bump into people innocently. Unless you hate that idea. [00:10:36] Speaker D: I do. [00:10:36] Speaker B: Just trying an idea. [00:10:38] Speaker A: Yeah, I do. [00:10:38] Speaker D: I do. But we can try whatever you want, Rufina. Because the thing is, I'm kind of, like, excited that the boss of the entire ship is kind of just in love with you. It's the best thing in the world. I'm sorry if it's awkward. It is genuinely something that is going to help us a lot. I think so. That's why I'm probably getting him to. [00:11:00] Speaker A: Change the rules about killing the captain. [00:11:04] Speaker D: Probably. You gotta tell me, Rafina. Okay. I mean, we can just kind of make our way ish in that ish area. But you know what? One of us should find Sean Indigo. Right? We should find where Sean Indigo is. [00:11:18] Speaker B: Yes. [00:11:19] Speaker F: Yeah, I think I think. I think we should go over to the room where we first saw. Where we saw him come out of. Yeah, we should. Yeah, we should confine him that he's not in there. [00:11:30] Speaker D: Knock. He could just be in there. Who wants to talk to stupid Shawn Indigo? Everybody. Hey, you want to go shit in his room? [00:11:39] Speaker F: And if he's not in there, then I think at least one of us needs to go in and look for this owl bear while the rest of us stay out in the hallway to stage a distraction. If and when he comes along. That way, he won't discover the group. [00:11:56] Speaker D: Okay, yeah, that's. I mean, that's a thought, too. I just. How many fucking directions could people come from at the location of that room? I'm having trouble picturing it. [00:12:11] Speaker F: We've got port. [00:12:14] Speaker D: Crap. [00:12:19] Speaker F: Stern bow. [00:12:22] Speaker D: Will's looking at you sternly. All right, okay. Well, I mean. Yeah, let's just. Yeah. Who wants to talk to Sean Indigo? Who wants to be the Noki talking to the. Not me. [00:12:35] Speaker B: I don't like him. [00:12:37] Speaker F: Or maybe Roscoe, who's best at, like, investigating animal handling? [00:12:43] Speaker B: Well. Oh, so I am animal handling, so I can be in the background for that. [00:12:47] Speaker F: But we'll need you for the captain. [00:12:50] Speaker B: Sure. But also, Will is very good about talking business, and Sean Indigo is a business guy because he has one. [00:13:02] Speaker D: Okay, but Valencia isn't a businessman, so I have to play valet businessman. So I don't know what that's. Let me develop this character. Valet businessman. Will maybe use thinking. [00:13:15] Speaker B: Have a store, have a. Have an idea. A conversation with him about wanting to break out on your own and starting afresh now that bathwick is dead and you want to start. [00:13:28] Speaker D: I'm like a baby businessman. Yes. Here's the thing, Rafina. I'm not really just a businessman, so, like, I don't know. Okay. I can do this, though. I can do this. Sure, if that's what you want. Who else? [00:13:41] Speaker B: Really? [00:13:41] Speaker D: I don't really want to talk. Rafina, you distracted me by talking about business and stuff. [00:13:45] Speaker A: See? [00:13:45] Speaker B: I'm so good at distracting. [00:13:47] Speaker A: Yes. [00:13:47] Speaker D: Okay. [00:13:47] Speaker B: I'm on the right team. [00:13:49] Speaker D: Definitely are. Well, she me. I mean, shimi. [00:13:52] Speaker A: No, I mean, I'm an investigative. [00:13:55] Speaker D: You definitely are. [00:13:57] Speaker F: I'm just thinking about this in terms of which one of us would have potentially the most meaningful moment. Freeing a baby boy. Like, at this point in our adventure, who really needs to experience freeing a boy? [00:14:21] Speaker D: I definitely don't. But all I'm saying is I can knock, and if he's in the room, I might be able to get him to come out with me. So it's free. Do it, is all I'm saying. That's what I was thinking. Otherwise, if I knock and he's not in there, and we got to send your eye under the door or something, Rafina. Right. Like, we got to do something because he might just not answer. What if he's in there and he just doesn't answer? We got to do something. [00:14:43] Speaker F: Shamey. [00:14:44] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:14:44] Speaker F: Go look for. Go see. Go make round Jamie and Mo. [00:14:49] Speaker B: Yeah? [00:14:50] Speaker F: Go opposite directions. And then go around the ship and see if you can find Shawn. Indigo. [00:14:57] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:14:57] Speaker F: And then come back here and report. [00:15:00] Speaker D: Keep eyes on him. [00:15:01] Speaker A: Do I have carte blanche to go anywhere? [00:15:04] Speaker D: No, shimi. Fucking no, okay? She me. [00:15:07] Speaker A: What? [00:15:08] Speaker D: Just had a magnificent moment with the albatross, like, ten minutes ago. Now. What the fuck was that? [00:15:13] Speaker A: That was me ask. [00:15:15] Speaker F: I wouldn't say caught blanche. Maybe caught Dorothy or kar rose. [00:15:20] Speaker D: Okay, listen. Shamey is no patience. You're not. You are not going in people's rooms. You are not stealing stuff for no fucking reason. We are in. Jimmy, listen to me. [00:15:35] Speaker A: I'm listening. [00:15:35] Speaker D: You're fucking tankered of sobriety, okay? Look at. [00:15:39] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:15:39] Speaker D: Look at me right fucking now. [00:15:40] Speaker A: I've been looking at you this whole time. [00:15:42] Speaker D: Yeah, I can tell. I know. I heard how you were talking, but. Shut up. What I'm saying is, you, if you can think like me in that capacity, think like me right now. And don't just be a fucking idiot and wander around and then. [00:15:55] Speaker A: That's not what I always ask. And I wanted to know if, say, we can't find him anywhere in the normal places where, uh. What are we called? Passengers. [00:16:04] Speaker D: Sure. [00:16:05] Speaker A: Could be found. Should we start looking in other places? [00:16:09] Speaker F: No, we need just a basic pass, just like an initial. Like, if we can confine that he is somewhere else, that would be useful. But don't spend too much time scouring the ship for that because that's not the point. The point is to maximize the amount of information we can have about Jean. Let me go right now. [00:16:32] Speaker D: Stroke right in the middle of that line. Oh, fuck. Yes, we get the point. That was the point. Roscoe, drink some mustard or something. Catch. Catch your breath. [00:16:49] Speaker A: Wait, what should Roscoe drink? [00:16:51] Speaker D: Mustard. What is this? [00:16:53] Speaker A: What is. Should he drink? Say it one more time. [00:16:56] Speaker D: Mustard. [00:16:57] Speaker A: You have a really big gob of mustard, right. [00:16:59] Speaker D: What? [00:17:00] Speaker A: Mustard. [00:17:01] Speaker F: Right where? [00:17:02] Speaker D: Right there. Wait, wait, wait, wait. I know what that is. What's that from? [00:17:06] Speaker B: What is that? [00:17:06] Speaker D: That's. [00:17:07] Speaker A: Yeah, you have a really big gob of mustard. [00:17:09] Speaker D: Right. That's what. [00:17:11] Speaker A: Mustard. [00:17:12] Speaker D: Right. [00:17:12] Speaker E: Wherever. [00:17:13] Speaker D: I. [00:17:13] Speaker E: It's this. There's something about Mary. It's the famous scene where she has mustard in her hair. [00:17:17] Speaker D: No, because she doesn't get it. Like, the thing is, I know what the character does. I can't picture her face, but she goes, where? Oh, my God. It's big. It's Tom Hanks. It's big. And the girl. Cause they're being cute on their date. And then he's like, yeah, that's what that is, right? Yes. Nice. All right, cool. [00:17:38] Speaker B: Good job. [00:17:39] Speaker D: I was like, I know that. I know that. I know that. I can hear it. All right, cool. Yes, that. Drink some mustard. You really. He populated his keyboard. That's what it's doing. [00:17:50] Speaker B: The best Christmas present ever. [00:17:52] Speaker D: My goodness. Merry Christmas to us. [00:17:55] Speaker A: I guess so. [00:18:01] Speaker B: Very inscrutable. [00:18:03] Speaker F: Well, anyway, so, yeah, Shamey and Mo, go do that and wire out to find me a mustard drink. [00:18:11] Speaker A: You have a really big gob of mustard. [00:18:13] Speaker D: Right. [00:18:15] Speaker A: Mustard. [00:18:15] Speaker D: Right. [00:18:16] Speaker E: This is untenable. I don't. [00:18:18] Speaker D: This isn't gonna work. [00:18:19] Speaker B: Untenable. [00:18:20] Speaker D: Anytime the word is said. [00:18:22] Speaker A: Merry Christmas. [00:18:26] Speaker D: Yeah. No stealing. No being stupid. Just walk around, be a normal person. [00:18:32] Speaker A: All right? [00:18:33] Speaker D: See if he's around. [00:18:35] Speaker A: I will steal nothing. [00:18:36] Speaker D: Mo, you don't. I know you won't steal anything. We could. God, mo, you know, if you could get in, like, an arm wrestling contest with Sean Indigo on the upper deck on the topmost mass, that would be great. A thing on this thing. I don't know. [00:18:49] Speaker F: I don't know that if that happens that they can communicate to us. We need to know. We didn't know where Shawn in the go, right? [00:19:00] Speaker D: Oh, yeah. [00:19:01] Speaker F: Goes. We're Sean and goes for Sean and goes. And Sean and the will of. [00:19:09] Speaker B: Sorry, I shouldn't have encouraged him by laughing. [00:19:13] Speaker A: Did you know that I pictured Sean Indigo as George went? [00:19:17] Speaker B: Oh, that's great. [00:19:20] Speaker A: I don't. [00:19:21] Speaker B: That's very interesting. All right, well, what is wrong with us? [00:19:28] Speaker D: I don't know. [00:19:29] Speaker A: Tonight, this is just such an outlier. Guys, what's happening? I don't get it. [00:19:35] Speaker E: Who is George Wentz's nephew? Some famous actor. Who's George went's nephew? Is it Jason Sudeikis? [00:19:42] Speaker D: Are you serious? I didn't know that. [00:19:44] Speaker E: I actually, I think I. Yeah, I think that is Jason Sudeikis. George went? [00:19:50] Speaker D: Yeah, he's his nephew. [00:19:52] Speaker A: Sweet. [00:19:53] Speaker D: Wow. [00:19:54] Speaker E: Is indeed. Yeah. Went is Sudeikis's mother's younger brother. [00:19:58] Speaker D: Wow, that's cool and weird. I'm trying to see them in my head. Do they have the same nose? Kind of. All right, I'm gonna look at it later. [00:20:08] Speaker A: The next time you forget and then kind of remember who George went's nephew is, you could just look on the pork fried dice Wiki. That's right. [00:20:19] Speaker B: That's right. [00:20:20] Speaker D: Amazing. [00:20:22] Speaker A: So, all right, we'll be back. Quick patrol looking for Sean. [00:20:29] Speaker F: In the meantime, maybe albatross, maybe you could come clean my room. [00:20:39] Speaker A: No, that's gonna be after I get the tit. [00:20:43] Speaker F: Well, what are we gonna do in the meantime? [00:20:46] Speaker A: Oh, was that shimi's voice? [00:20:47] Speaker D: Yeah, absolutely. [00:20:48] Speaker A: Oh, fuck. [00:20:49] Speaker B: It's fine. [00:20:50] Speaker A: No, that's after you give me the tit. [00:20:54] Speaker F: Okay. [00:20:57] Speaker E: Guys, why did I make this my D and D character? [00:21:01] Speaker D: What? [00:21:02] Speaker E: For a whole campaign, I do this to. To you guys and to the fans. [00:21:08] Speaker A: What part of it? [00:21:10] Speaker B: You know, thing? [00:21:11] Speaker F: Like, who's this guy? [00:21:14] Speaker A: I think everybody always feels like that about every character. [00:21:18] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:21:18] Speaker A: Anybody ever. [00:21:19] Speaker D: I have said that to my. To my. To Eric many times, but not every. [00:21:24] Speaker F: Character sounds like this. Some of them sound like this. [00:21:29] Speaker D: Some of them sound like this. Kick, some of your sound like this. [00:21:36] Speaker A: Yeah. Some of them sound like this. Yes. I hear it's quite off putting when you first arrive, but, yeah, it's not a new one, but I had to. [00:21:56] Speaker F: All right, so while they go. And you'll go above board. Above deck, but also above board. Yeah, yeah, they're gonna be above board. That's what Shamey promised to Valencia. [00:22:12] Speaker B: Yep, yep. [00:22:13] Speaker F: While they're doing that, we'll position ourselves in the hall, pretend to be admiring the walls and the tiles. [00:22:29] Speaker B: They are unusually nice walls. I have to hand it to the captain. Have you seen the walls? [00:22:38] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:22:38] Speaker F: Let's take a look. [00:22:39] Speaker D: Right now. [00:22:39] Speaker F: I'm looking now. [00:22:39] Speaker B: They're both functional and attractive. [00:22:42] Speaker F: Oh, yeah, these are functional, attractive walls. [00:22:45] Speaker D: Will is wondering where kick is. Did he come back after the Juliet Rascher thing? [00:22:50] Speaker A: I don't know. [00:22:52] Speaker D: Did you ever come? [00:22:53] Speaker C: Nobody knows where he is. [00:22:54] Speaker E: I want to see Eric. [00:22:55] Speaker B: Nope, sorry. [00:22:56] Speaker A: I just. [00:22:56] Speaker D: He always does in front of my mic. [00:22:58] Speaker B: And, like, I do want to see. [00:22:59] Speaker D: Erin on your mic, you goof. I know. He, um. I. [00:23:06] Speaker B: Now I want to find kick, because it sounds like kick is insistent. [00:23:10] Speaker D: Well, no, I was going to say that Kik could potentially distract shone Indigo by, like, pretending to have caught a weird looking fish or something that might get him excited. And so Will wanted to suggest that if Kik came back, but I don't know. [00:23:26] Speaker B: Very nice. [00:23:28] Speaker D: The kik came back. [00:23:29] Speaker C: Well, so right at this moment, Kik has just finished closing the top dresser drawer of the bureau in Will's room. And then he closes his eyes because he is convinced that the cross albatross is God. And so he says a quick prayer to the cross albatross, saying, thank you for your help. There are fish in Will's dresser. And then he emerges into the hallway. I don't know where you guys are. We're admiring the walls, the walls of the hallway. [00:24:16] Speaker B: Yeah, they're functional and attractive. [00:24:18] Speaker F: Yeah, they're functional and attractive. [00:24:22] Speaker A: Hi. [00:24:23] Speaker B: Hey, kick. [00:24:23] Speaker D: Oh, kick. [00:24:24] Speaker F: Hey, kick. [00:24:26] Speaker D: I'll send him a see unhearable message in case anyone out here is listening to be like, do you think you could distract Sean Indigo by catching a weird fucking creature with that miraculous fishing line? [00:24:40] Speaker C: Can I respond in braid text? [00:24:42] Speaker D: Yes. [00:24:43] Speaker C: Maybe I can catch the weird, miraculous creature. [00:24:47] Speaker D: Oh, God, no. Don't make us battle anything, batwack. That's not what I'm saying. [00:24:51] Speaker C: Maybe I can catch the owl bear. [00:24:55] Speaker D: What? Oh, shit. What? You can just fish the catch. What? I don't know, out of the. But what if you heard it? [00:25:02] Speaker C: Or I'll just picture the weirdest thing I can think of and then cast my rod into the sea and see what comes up. [00:25:11] Speaker D: Okay. [00:25:11] Speaker C: I'll try not to think of, like, a boot or a regular fish. [00:25:15] Speaker A: Um, it's like, not thinking. [00:25:17] Speaker C: Or a bicycle. [00:25:18] Speaker A: A pink elephant. [00:25:18] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:25:19] Speaker A: Just boot after boot after boot after boot. [00:25:24] Speaker C: Yeah, the top dresser drawer is just full of boots. [00:25:29] Speaker A: None of them match will. Sorry. [00:25:31] Speaker D: Dang. I would also relay what Bathwaite just said. Like, he could also try to catch the owl bear, but I don't know if that's gonna work. [00:25:42] Speaker C: Dude, do I even dare try it? [00:25:45] Speaker D: I don't know. Like, I don't know enough about this fishing line. I wasn't paying attention to you when you bought it with my money. [00:25:51] Speaker C: I wasn't. I wasn't really paying attention either, but thank you for the fishing line. [00:25:58] Speaker D: Yeah, you're fucking welcome. [00:26:00] Speaker C: It seems amazing. [00:26:01] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:26:02] Speaker C: I've caught so many fish. Oh. And you. [00:26:04] Speaker D: Oh, I remember that. I do remember that. Thank you. [00:26:09] Speaker C: I'll just picture something strange and beautiful, and I'll go fish it up and find a bucket for it and bring it to Sean. Indigenous. [00:26:17] Speaker D: Don't bring it. Don't have him come up. Like, have your. Your line. Can you anchor it down somehow? Have somebody else hold it, leave it in the water? Or we send somebody, I don't know, to just get him up there. Get him out of there. We don't even know if he's in the room. Let's go fucking see. God damn it. We gotta. All right. Okay. [00:26:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:26:36] Speaker C: All right. It's a plan. [00:26:39] Speaker A: And break. [00:26:40] Speaker D: This is ridiculous. [00:26:42] Speaker A: Everybody runs into each other. [00:26:43] Speaker D: We just keep picturing, like, we keep trying to keep planning all the shit in Eric this whole time, it's just like, he's not even fucking there, you idiots. Like, stop talking about it. [00:26:53] Speaker E: Roscoe would gradually. [00:26:55] Speaker A: He's. [00:26:55] Speaker E: He's, like, raising his hands against the. The walls, and he's slowly making his way down over to that room where Sean Indigo emerged from. So, eventually, the wall and admiration will take him there. [00:27:14] Speaker A: Got it. Okay. Is our people going with Roscoe as he drifts that way? [00:27:20] Speaker D: I mean, I know I would. [00:27:21] Speaker B: Yeah, I was a bigly drifting. [00:27:24] Speaker F: Yeah, drift with me. [00:27:30] Speaker D: What are we doing? What's the plan? Like, who is it, Will? Is it a. [00:27:34] Speaker F: Well, knock on that door when we come to it? [00:27:37] Speaker D: What plans are good? Roscoe. [00:27:42] Speaker A: Oh, hey, guys. [00:27:43] Speaker F: Okay, tremors. [00:27:46] Speaker A: Nar. [00:27:47] Speaker D: Oh. [00:27:48] Speaker B: Oh, it's nar. [00:27:49] Speaker F: Hey, nar. [00:27:51] Speaker A: What's. What's going on? Were you guys playing the games? [00:27:58] Speaker F: Well, you still feel. Shouldn't you still feel too insulted to be interacting with us right now? [00:28:06] Speaker D: Does he look at me? Does Roscoe? [00:28:08] Speaker A: Actually, no. I. If you don't remember, I was rude to Valencio here, and I just. Are you doing okay? [00:28:23] Speaker D: Can you stop looking at me, please? [00:28:25] Speaker A: Oh, I'm sorry. [00:28:26] Speaker E: Such a great look KT did as Will. [00:28:30] Speaker A: Is your friend Valencio here doing okay? [00:28:33] Speaker D: Oh, my God. Like, Will is almost gonna lose the plan entirely. Oh, no. This guy puts him on so much edge. [00:28:41] Speaker F: No. Where did you just come from? [00:28:43] Speaker A: What do you mean? [00:28:45] Speaker F: Where did you just come from? Where were you before? [00:28:46] Speaker A: I was up in the room where we had the drinks, remember? [00:28:50] Speaker F: Who are you? Was there anyone else there with you? [00:28:53] Speaker A: Sue? Was there. [00:28:55] Speaker F: Sue. Okay. [00:28:58] Speaker E: All right. [00:29:00] Speaker F: The two of you? [00:29:01] Speaker A: Uh huh. [00:29:03] Speaker B: Have you seen the captain? [00:29:05] Speaker A: Uh, no, I haven't. Why do you need him? [00:29:08] Speaker B: I was just going to ask him about the walls. [00:29:11] Speaker D: Will is studying the wall. Will is looking right at the wall, just like you guys were doing before that he turned away from completely annoyedly. He's just looking at the wall like, yep, yep. Look at this. [00:29:20] Speaker A: Is there something wrong with the walls? What's. What's. What's happening? [00:29:22] Speaker D: What is this guy looking at me so much for? [00:29:25] Speaker A: He's not even looking at you. [00:29:26] Speaker D: Okay, good. Yeah, he looks at the wall. The guy's talking about walls. God damn it. [00:29:34] Speaker B: We're just curious about the walls. We heard they were famous oh. But maybe we were wrong. I'm not sure, but I think they look famous. [00:29:44] Speaker A: Should we go find the captain together? I could. I could do that. I could help you guys out. [00:29:50] Speaker F: Yeah, no, yeah, you help us out by go finding the captain. [00:29:55] Speaker A: Well, I'm assuming you guys were already over there. Should we head this way? The way you were going? Orlando? [00:30:01] Speaker F: Well, we're gonna keep an eye on the walls here. I think it's probably best for us to split up. [00:30:10] Speaker D: All of us versus you. Amazing. Roll. [00:30:16] Speaker A: A deception check. [00:30:18] Speaker D: That's a great way of saying, I. [00:30:20] Speaker E: Think it's good for you to leave. [00:30:21] Speaker D: Yeah, we should split up. We should split up. [00:30:26] Speaker E: We'll stay here. [00:30:27] Speaker D: Oh, my God. [00:30:31] Speaker E: Wait, do you really need me to do deception check? [00:30:33] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:30:34] Speaker D: Oh, my God. [00:30:36] Speaker F: I don't even know what my description. [00:30:37] Speaker D: Like, is he trying to deceive him, or is he just trying to tell him to go away in a not so? I don't know. [00:30:44] Speaker A: Well, you said we're gonna stay here and look at the walls. [00:30:47] Speaker D: Oh, God. Now, will. Yeah. Yeah. [00:30:49] Speaker F: All right. [00:30:53] Speaker A: 17. All right. All right. [00:30:58] Speaker D: Oh, no. [00:31:01] Speaker A: I guess I'll backtrack where you guys went. Yeah, let's split up. Should I meet you back here or. [00:31:10] Speaker B: We're not sure where we'll be. Depending on how this wall adventure takes us. Where it takes us. [00:31:17] Speaker A: Okay, well, I mean, we're all on a ship. We could fight each other. [00:31:22] Speaker B: It's a cruise. [00:31:24] Speaker A: Yes, it's a cruise. [00:31:27] Speaker D: See, look, she's already getting possessive. This is her cruise ship now. It's a cruise, bitch. I'm the fairy queen. [00:31:36] Speaker A: They're already painting SS Rafina on it. [00:31:39] Speaker D: Fairy. What's some fairies? [00:31:43] Speaker B: I love it. [00:31:45] Speaker D: Self reference. [00:31:47] Speaker B: Okay, we'll see ya. [00:31:49] Speaker D: See? [00:31:49] Speaker F: You know. [00:31:53] Speaker A: And, Valencia, again, if there's anything I can do for you, please. [00:31:56] Speaker D: Push him off the fucking ship at this. [00:31:59] Speaker F: Start the song. Start the song. [00:32:02] Speaker B: The song. [00:32:03] Speaker F: The greatest adventure is. [00:32:11] Speaker D: The greatest adventure. [00:32:15] Speaker F: Is the walls on this crows. [00:32:19] Speaker B: You're looking at nars nar leave. [00:32:21] Speaker D: Oh, he's gone away. Oh, God. [00:32:29] Speaker A: All right. Do you still stay looking at the walls? [00:32:32] Speaker D: Okay. Is the sue person. That's the first thing I say is, like, is this. Isn't the sue person, like, friends with Sean, indigo or something? [00:32:39] Speaker B: Yeah, they seem to be together. Yeah. [00:32:42] Speaker D: Should we keep an eye out for her as well? And will is really, like, just dead voice when he's saying this. [00:32:49] Speaker E: That sounds so dead voice. Yeah, that would have been a smarter thing to do, probably. [00:32:55] Speaker F: Um. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, you know, I say we just stick and move. I'm gonna put my ear up to this door here to see if I can hear anything happening on the other side. [00:33:08] Speaker B: Wait, which door is it, Sean? [00:33:10] Speaker D: Indigo's door. [00:33:11] Speaker A: It is come out of. [00:33:13] Speaker F: Yeah, yeah, that. [00:33:14] Speaker B: Oh, good. Okay, I missed that. Sorry. [00:33:15] Speaker A: Okay. All right, uh, give me a perception roll. [00:33:18] Speaker D: I'll go some bit away so I can see if anyone's coming from one direction. [00:33:22] Speaker A: You can give me a perception roll, too. That's a three, Roscoe. Uh oh. Okay, which way are you going? [00:33:34] Speaker D: When I get a 19, do you. [00:33:36] Speaker A: Want me to remind you where you guys are on? [00:33:38] Speaker D: I thought there was a stairway. Like, we came down a stairway and then just stood there. Is it right next to a stairway to the other? [00:33:44] Speaker A: I put Roscoe outside the door that you guys are at. [00:33:49] Speaker B: We're on the level with all the cabins, right? [00:33:52] Speaker A: Yep. Closer to the drinking room, whatever you call it. [00:33:57] Speaker D: Oh, we are close to that room. Okay, so sue or whatever is in there right now, I guess. [00:34:03] Speaker B: I thought you said Roscoe is. Roscoe's outside. Or is that just the room that is Roscoe's. [00:34:10] Speaker A: Don't look at. [00:34:10] Speaker E: You might be looking at the wrong Roscoe. [00:34:13] Speaker B: Yeah, I think I am. I think I see us now. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Got it. [00:34:23] Speaker A: Everybody good? [00:34:27] Speaker D: So is this right, babe? Is this. What am I looking at the right one? So do these stairs go up these. So where I am, I could be going up to the top, right? [00:34:37] Speaker F: Yes. [00:34:37] Speaker D: Okay, that's what I thought. All right. That's where I was going to go, just to see if anyone was coming from that direction. [00:34:43] Speaker C: Wait, wait, where. Where? I'm confused now. So, wait, where where is. What's our plan? [00:34:49] Speaker D: Yeah, that's what I was just asking. And, like, we had a couple. [00:34:55] Speaker A: That's always good, I thought. [00:34:58] Speaker D: I mean, it's still. Roscoe is just listening at the door right now, but I think, like, Kit could totally still do the plan of. Well, we had a couple different plans. One was maybe distract. [00:35:10] Speaker E: Yeah, I think all the best plans have multiple unresolved variables at once. [00:35:16] Speaker D: No. Yeah, will is. Will thinks he's doing the plan. He's just, like. He's looking one direction. Like, I'm gonna be the distraction here, but he should have realized. [00:35:27] Speaker C: So. So then what I. What I. What I got from our brain text conversation is that I'm not sure what to do, but I'm pretty sure that I'm just gonna go up to the top deck. [00:35:39] Speaker A: Okay. [00:35:40] Speaker C: Like, up here. So I'm taking the opposite stairs from everyone else. [00:35:46] Speaker A: Mm hmm. [00:35:46] Speaker C: And I'm going to look for some places along the edge of the ship where there might be, I forget the. The name of them, but something I can use to hold the fishing rod in place. [00:36:01] Speaker B: A widgeon. I made that up. [00:36:05] Speaker A: Oh, we know it's a fairy term. [00:36:08] Speaker C: So I'll walk around the. The perimeter of the top deck to see if I can find something like that. [00:36:14] Speaker A: Yeah, you find some at the. At the back of the boat over. [00:36:19] Speaker C: Here by this giant trampoline? [00:36:20] Speaker A: Yeah, by the trampoline. [00:36:22] Speaker C: Is there really a trampoline? [00:36:23] Speaker A: I don't know what the hell it is. [00:36:30] Speaker C: All right. And so then I set up there, and I put the rod into the thing, the widgets. Before I actually cast the line, I'm going to spend a few minutes thinking of something colorful and exotic. [00:36:52] Speaker A: Okay. Do you have a description now, or do you need a few minutes? [00:36:57] Speaker C: Well, it's going to be iridescent like a hummingbird, but, like, striped and rainbowy like a tiger fish. And it's going to have, like, flowing, like, what are they called? [00:37:17] Speaker B: Fins. [00:37:18] Speaker C: Fins, yes, flowing fins. And. [00:37:25] Speaker B: A mohawk. A mullet. [00:37:27] Speaker D: A mullet. [00:37:30] Speaker A: Do you see what she did there? [00:37:32] Speaker D: A mullet. Oh, yeah. Excuse me. [00:37:35] Speaker B: Oh, I don't know what I did. [00:37:37] Speaker A: It's a type of fish. [00:37:38] Speaker D: Yeah. Oh, it's really good. [00:37:41] Speaker B: Totally intentional. [00:37:42] Speaker C: And I'm gonna picture that it can. It can fly up out of the water sometimes, that it also has, like, spines on it as well, that, like, pulse. Like, the light goes up from the bottom of the spine out to the end, sort of like, you know, and then it extinguishes, and then it does it again. [00:38:03] Speaker D: Wow. [00:38:04] Speaker C: Yeah. So. [00:38:05] Speaker B: Oh, like those jellyfish. [00:38:06] Speaker C: Like. [00:38:07] Speaker B: Or the vampire squid. [00:38:08] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:38:08] Speaker C: Like the vampire squids. Yeah. And also the jellyfish that do that. [00:38:14] Speaker B: Yeah, probably more so even than that. [00:38:16] Speaker C: Yeah. So. So that kind of picture, I don't know if it exists. [00:38:20] Speaker A: And how big are you picturing? [00:38:22] Speaker C: Uh, well, I don't want my rod to get broken. Um, so big enough to be interesting, but not big enough to break my fishing rod. [00:38:36] Speaker D: Hmm. [00:38:37] Speaker A: Okay. [00:38:37] Speaker C: Um. Okay, so, I mean, it. [00:38:41] Speaker F: Fishing line is so op. [00:38:43] Speaker B: It is totally op. [00:38:46] Speaker C: Well, I don't know how well this is going to work. This is the first. Mostly I've just been thinking about fish and boots. [00:38:51] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [00:38:53] Speaker C: And Will's suspenders. Yeah. So I'll just spend, like, a good couple minutes. [00:39:03] Speaker A: Okay. [00:39:04] Speaker C: Imagining this thing before I cast the rod into the water. Cool the rod. Cast the line into the water. [00:39:09] Speaker D: Oh, just throw the whole thing on the verge. Sean, come see. I threw my fishing pole on the dust. [00:39:17] Speaker A: Your hands walk away satisfied, like a Homer simpson moment. [00:39:23] Speaker D: Oh, my God. [00:39:23] Speaker B: Did you watch this colorful creature grab it and swim off with it? [00:39:34] Speaker A: All right, cool. [00:39:35] Speaker C: Goes home to its family. You'll never guess what I found today. [00:39:40] Speaker A: All righty, so we've got all that information. Roscoe rolled three perception to listen at the door. So with that, you. You strain to make out anything. Just like the walls. The doors are very well made on this vessel, so very stoutenhouse, thick doors that don't. Don't let a lot of sound through. I think Will was impressed by the. The sound proofiness of his room initially, and that remains, you would assume, true here because you are not able to hear anything from within the room. Will, with a 19 perception, you can hear from above deck the sounds of, you know, the. The water is it. The. The ship is plunging through it. You even hear some distant cawing of seagulls from the door in front of you. On the level that you're at, you can hear, you think some low talking. You're not exactly sure. [00:41:02] Speaker D: Let me see the. I'm trying to get to it. The door in front of me. Where is that? Oh, oh, okay. So is that the drinking room? Is that the feast room? No, the drinking room. [00:41:14] Speaker A: Yeah, it's like a lounge. [00:41:16] Speaker D: Okay, I'll go listen at that door just to see if anyone is coming towards that door to come out. [00:41:26] Speaker A: Okay. All right, so you're gonna go listen at that door. You give me another check if you'd like. [00:41:38] Speaker D: What is it again? Perception. Oh, man, this isn't gonna turn out well. [00:41:45] Speaker A: Oh, that's another 19. [00:41:47] Speaker D: Nice. [00:41:49] Speaker A: So you hear with your ear to the door, you hear someone say, yes, look at that. Right away. And then you hear footsteps moving away from you. [00:42:05] Speaker D: Hmm. [00:42:08] Speaker A: Roscoe clockface tugs at your coat and looks up at you and shrugs his shoulders like his arms, puts his arms up in the air in a questioning gesture. [00:42:24] Speaker F: Yeah, I don't hear anything in there. I think maybe we just stay in a holding pattern until, you know, let's give everybody a chance to come back and report back. Maybe. But I gotta admit, this wall is really good. I mean, this and this door. This door is really. I mean, it's. It's functional, but attractive. [00:42:52] Speaker A: I think Roscoe's been in the brown treat again. [00:42:57] Speaker F: There are boobs all over the place. Adventure is beyond this door. [00:43:09] Speaker A: Bathwack. I mean, kick. Excuse me? You're readying your rod and picturing this beast and mo comes bustling up, says, oh, hi, stranger. Did you see anybody up here? [00:43:27] Speaker C: No. Oh, did you? [00:43:31] Speaker A: I'm looking. I just want to make friends. [00:43:37] Speaker C: Hi. Yeah, it's nice out here, isn't it? [00:43:44] Speaker A: Yeah. What are you doing? [00:43:47] Speaker C: Um, fishing. [00:43:50] Speaker A: Oh, okay. [00:43:53] Speaker F: I. [00:43:53] Speaker A: Can I watch? [00:43:56] Speaker C: Yeah, that's. I'm watching, too. [00:43:59] Speaker D: Cool. [00:44:00] Speaker A: All right, give me a survival check. [00:44:06] Speaker C: I just. Adam's face, I don't think. I don't think he liked. [00:44:11] Speaker A: It's like, what? [00:44:15] Speaker C: Giving. Give you what? Role. [00:44:17] Speaker A: Survival. [00:44:19] Speaker C: All right. [00:44:21] Speaker E: This is to survive. My withering gaze. [00:44:26] Speaker C: On natural one. Now, let's see. Where is survival? There. [00:44:34] Speaker A: Ooh, a four. [00:44:37] Speaker C: Ah, that's good. [00:44:39] Speaker A: All right, so you feel a tug on the line, and you start pulling it in. Oh, you got something. You got it. And you pull quickly up from the water all down below. And as soon as it breaks the surface, you can tell that this is not the. The creature you were imagining. You, in fact, caught a boot. [00:45:08] Speaker C: All right, well, I'll reel it up. I'll take the hook out. I'll throw the boot on the deck. I'll sit for a couple more minutes quietly, thinking about the picture of this fish. [00:45:22] Speaker F: Wow. [00:45:23] Speaker A: Fishing. [00:45:23] Speaker F: Boring. [00:45:24] Speaker A: I got stuff to do. [00:45:28] Speaker B: I got. [00:45:30] Speaker E: That's so good. [00:45:34] Speaker A: I'll see you later. He hustles off. If you look, you see that he meets up with Shimi, sort of midway up the deck, and they confer, and then they both head for one of the stairs down to the deck below. [00:45:54] Speaker C: Okay, I'm gonna keep trying. [00:45:57] Speaker A: Okay. So, yeah, Shimi and Mo come back to you guys outside of Sean's room. No one has come around. And Shimi says, well, we didn't see him anywhere. We saw. I mean, we probably should keep our voices down. The captain, we saw him go in just around the corner. There's another door over there. He was with his assistant, guy. What's his name? Phileas. They had some sort of, like, a shelf thing. I don't know if it. It looked like what? Like Will's shelf? Could have been. But I don't know why they were going in. There was some other door over there. They went in. [00:46:38] Speaker D: Oh, hell, yeah. [00:46:39] Speaker A: So I don't know what they're doing. [00:46:42] Speaker D: But wait, is it. Is it our bedrooms over there? Our rooms over there? [00:46:47] Speaker A: Your rooms? [00:46:48] Speaker D: No, no. Will is asking, like, is it where there were. Are there rooms over there? [00:46:52] Speaker A: Oh, it was a door. I don't know. [00:46:57] Speaker D: I mean, I might be getting another room, so it might be, but now I'm curious. [00:47:03] Speaker B: You didn't say that. [00:47:06] Speaker A: I think. I think will did. [00:47:08] Speaker D: Yeah. Yeah, yeah. [00:47:10] Speaker B: You getting another room? [00:47:12] Speaker D: Just for storage? I have a lot of suitcases. I don't know. [00:47:18] Speaker A: No, you don't. [00:47:21] Speaker F: So I guess it's a distinct possibility that, uh, Sean Indigo is. Is in this room. He's on the other side of this door, so, uh, uh, Valencio, I think maybe you're up. [00:47:37] Speaker D: What about bathwater? Did you see Bathwatch get anything? [00:47:41] Speaker A: Oh, he catches shoe. [00:47:43] Speaker D: Great. [00:47:44] Speaker A: He wasn't done. He did it again. I don't know if he wants to get do. [00:47:49] Speaker D: Okay, well, if I'm gonna knock on the. I mean, I think the bathrock thing is good, but, like, I could. It doesn't. You know, we could double distract him. I could. I could go to the store and distract him with something and then take him, I think so. [00:48:02] Speaker A: What? [00:48:02] Speaker F: Should the rest of us not be out here? [00:48:05] Speaker D: I think it'd be better if we're not all together all the time. [00:48:08] Speaker F: Shouldn't be standing right behind you, craning on that. [00:48:13] Speaker A: If you stand, like, in a perfect line behind him, you won't be able to see it. [00:48:17] Speaker E: Yeah, just really good clowning. [00:48:24] Speaker F: Okay, well, how about. What if maybe we'll go over. Let's go hang out in the drinking room here. [00:48:37] Speaker B: I love that we call it the. [00:48:38] Speaker F: Drinking room, and we can hang out in there. Sue might be in there, but maybe. Okay, we've got all these distractions going on. Okay, we go into here, somebody distracts sue so I can keep an eye out through this door and to see when Will is able to lead Sean Indigo away from the room. [00:49:03] Speaker D: Will would indicate that he did hear people in that room. So there's definitely still people? [00:49:08] Speaker F: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just so you, I think I'll be very casual. We very normal. [00:49:18] Speaker D: Oh, God, Roscoe good at that. We're doomed. Uh uh. All right, sure. Yeah. Get out of here. [00:49:28] Speaker F: Okay. You're good. Okay. All right. Mo shimi, clock face, Ravina, let's go get drunk. [00:49:42] Speaker D: I mean. [00:49:43] Speaker A: All right, let's go. [00:49:45] Speaker B: Okay. [00:49:47] Speaker A: Follow my lead. [00:49:50] Speaker D: Hmm. [00:49:51] Speaker F: And, Rufina, uh, whoever's in there, you can have to distract them. Make sure that their backs are toward this door that we're going through now. [00:50:02] Speaker B: Okay, but you mean from the inside, right? [00:50:05] Speaker F: Yeah, from the inside. Yeah. [00:50:06] Speaker B: Okay. [00:50:06] Speaker F: Unless, I mean, if you can get them out of here, if you can get them out of the room entirely. Take him above deck or something. That's great, too. [00:50:15] Speaker B: Okay. Thank you for the flexibility. [00:50:19] Speaker A: All right, so you all head into the drunkenness room, and Sue, Sue Broadmoor. Is that her name? I think so. [00:50:31] Speaker B: Broadmoor. Really? [00:50:32] Speaker A: I think so. I wrote it down. I can't read. Yep, Sue Broadmoor in her very classy red suit and top hat. It's in there. She is sitting with her back to you, actually, at one of those weird chairs that we talked about before that on our map don't really make much sense. Kind of remind me of a train station. Yeah, she's sitting at one, looking out the window. The view in here is very nice. If you recall, there's windows all around, especially out the back, so you can sort of see the wake behind. Um, but, you know, with the sound of you coming in. She turns. So welcome. I seem to be alone here, so I welcome the company. Come, please, make yourself comfortable. [00:51:24] Speaker B: Oh. How long have you been alone? Weren't you here with Sean when. [00:51:30] Speaker A: No, I mean, we all were. [00:51:32] Speaker B: Oh, I thought you sat with him at dinner because you knew him. [00:51:35] Speaker A: I mean, we met on the boat. Oh, ship. Excuse me. [00:51:41] Speaker B: I was confused what you meant by, by boat, clarified. [00:51:46] Speaker A: One of the. The kitchen staff is going to be back with another drink for me, but I'm sure they'll. They'll take your order if you are so inclined. How are you. How are you liking the cruise? [00:52:01] Speaker B: I'm having a great time. [00:52:03] Speaker A: You seem to know the captain. Are you. Are you long time friends or. [00:52:08] Speaker B: No. I don't know him, though. I feel like he thinks we met in a previous life. [00:52:14] Speaker A: Oh, did he say that to you? Is he a believer in reincarnation? [00:52:19] Speaker B: I don't know him well enough to even know that, but he is a man of ardente, passion. [00:52:30] Speaker F: Fervor. Oh, passion's good, too. [00:52:34] Speaker D: Fervor. [00:52:35] Speaker F: Fervor. [00:52:42] Speaker A: Good, normal good. [00:52:47] Speaker D: Amazing. Amazing. [00:52:50] Speaker A: I've wondered about the idea of reincarnation myself. You know, we always hear about that. All these gods are going to usher us to the. To the afterlife, this grand palace underneath the earth that we all can live in and view the world from beyond the pale and. And see our descendants go after us. But I don't know, I mean, maybe we just all come back as different people or things. [00:53:21] Speaker F: Fuck you talking about, lady? [00:53:24] Speaker D: What? [00:53:25] Speaker B: Roscoe, we have to be open and curious rather than judgmental. [00:53:31] Speaker F: I know, I know. I think I just got. I don't know, I'm still just kind of offended that you called the ship a boat earlier. [00:53:39] Speaker A: I know. I'm very sorry. This is my. My first time on a vessel like this, so I'm learning the ropes. Or are they not called ropes on here? What are they called? Lines. [00:53:52] Speaker F: What are they called? Water strings. [00:53:55] Speaker D: Water strings. [00:53:56] Speaker A: I haven't heard that one. That's good. I'll have to take note of that. As with any industry, I mean, there's always these very specific, specific terms. You have to learn the lingo. I mean, you know, I myself, as an inventor, there's all sorts of names for things that you would probably refer to as who's it's, and gee gaws and whatnot. So I certainly understand. I personally don't get offended at my core if someone uses the wrong term for something. People with. With, with vessels, for some reason, that's just the way they are. But anyway, no problem. No problem. Off my skin. [00:54:42] Speaker D: What a cool lady. [00:54:43] Speaker A: She's had a few. [00:54:45] Speaker D: No problem off my skin. Oh, my God. I. I love it. [00:54:50] Speaker A: Will, are you knocking on the door? [00:54:53] Speaker D: Oh, yeah. I guess I wait for everyone to get out of there. Yep, sure. [00:54:57] Speaker A: Okay. What kind of a knock do you deliver? It's the first. Your first impression, right? [00:55:04] Speaker D: Yeah, but it's my impression. I have to be Valencia, so it has to be a mournful knock. [00:55:13] Speaker A: You say that as you're nothing. [00:55:17] Speaker E: Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock. [00:55:21] Speaker D: Oh, nice. [00:55:25] Speaker A: I thought it was shingle bells. [00:55:28] Speaker D: What the fuck? Amazing. No, it's just. Yeah, it's like a, like, is it. [00:55:34] Speaker A: An urgent knock, or like. [00:55:35] Speaker D: No, it's like a. Don't, don't, don't. I definitely, like, settle in a character or something before I even do that. Trying to get all morning. Stupid. [00:55:47] Speaker A: Oh, one moment. [00:55:48] Speaker D: What the fuck? [00:55:50] Speaker A: You hear from behind the door? [00:55:53] Speaker D: Oh, wait, no, he also can't. [00:55:54] Speaker A: Fucking. [00:55:55] Speaker D: Sorry. I'm sorry. I'm not trying to make fun of you. I'm like, where is. Why is she, me, everywhere today? It's just. [00:56:00] Speaker A: I've got to get my knife. Oh, nor. I can't find it. One moment. So bad. [00:56:09] Speaker D: Is that really great? I gotta get my. [00:56:12] Speaker A: No, that's just me getting. [00:56:14] Speaker D: But then you just sounded like you were. [00:56:16] Speaker A: Oh, no, my part farlier. And then the door opens. Oh, it's you. What do you want? What are you laughing at? [00:56:35] Speaker D: Stop. It was not. He doesn't laugh. [00:56:37] Speaker A: I know, it's like. [00:56:39] Speaker D: Do happen to know anything about any animals that might be good for somebody who's going through something? [00:56:47] Speaker A: Oh, you wanna. You wanna make a purchase? Maybe just like some fine stock? [00:56:55] Speaker D: Okay. Like, I'm. Will is taken aback and he's not afraid to show it, because this guy just doesn't give a fuck. He's like, not even. He's not responding at all in any softness. So he's like, yeah. Yes, I've heard of something like emotional support, something like that. [00:57:12] Speaker A: Oh, I'm sure we can find something for you. He claps his hand hard on your shoulder. [00:57:17] Speaker D: Oh, shit. Don't touch me. [00:57:18] Speaker A: Come on in. [00:57:19] Speaker D: Sky's on. Okay. Yep. He. Yeah, he kind of winces and I guess goes in. All right, so is this a bedroom? [00:57:27] Speaker A: So, yeah, this is, like, a bigger room than the rooms you guys are in. The. I'm not going to reveal this. The images are not. [00:57:35] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:57:36] Speaker A: It's not on the map. It's a. I'll reveal it just so you can see the dimension. Just ignore the pictures. It's not accurate. Where is it? Here. So it's like a square room about this size. And there's another door in the wall towards the back of the boat, which is currently closed. This room is got, like, stacks of cages of various sizes. [00:58:06] Speaker D: Oh, God, does this stink. It's got a stink. [00:58:09] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [00:58:09] Speaker D: Oh, well, like, he. Okay, I still have, like, an illusion on my clothes. So I can't even reach in and get a handkerchief because it doesn't even make sense with how my clothes are, like, orienting. He wants to. He goes to try to, like, cover his mouth with a handkerchief, but then he realizes he can't actually get his handkerchief, and he just kind of, like, sticks his knuckle under his nose. [00:58:32] Speaker A: So, yeah, there's. And it's. It's not loud, but there are noises. Okay, so the door was doing a pretty good job of muffling any kind of sound coming from within. And you can see this is horrifying to will. [00:58:49] Speaker D: To me, it sounds very exciting, but, like, he's just like, oh, God, look at all these creatures. [00:58:54] Speaker A: You see, like, pet store. [00:58:55] Speaker D: Like, is. [00:58:56] Speaker A: It's not a store. [00:58:56] Speaker D: How many cages are you talking? I just pictured so many. I don't know if that's accurate. Too many. Well, we'll panic. I mean, thousands of cages. [00:59:06] Speaker A: I don't know. Like a dozen and a half or so. [00:59:10] Speaker D: A dozen and a half. [00:59:12] Speaker E: Is there. Is there a Nicholas cage in there? [00:59:16] Speaker A: Once I can do it, you'll have to teach me. And then there'll be one. And. Yeah, there's. There's, like. There's, like, little. Not to step on your toes, Rafina. But there's, like, some terrariums as well. They're not all, like, cages. So there's different types of vessels containing different. Different things. [00:59:34] Speaker D: This room is packed. Is there a bed? In here it is. [00:59:36] Speaker A: There's no bed. [00:59:37] Speaker D: There is no bed. This is. Oh, this is just a storage room of cages. [00:59:41] Speaker A: That's what it looks like. [00:59:42] Speaker D: And he was not upset that I was here. Can I have rolled a perception check? Can I. Can I, like insight from role playing? It didn't seem like he was surprised or he was a little surprised. [00:59:51] Speaker A: He said, what are you doing here? [00:59:53] Speaker D: All right, but we had seen him come out of the room before, so it's not like he thought it was weird that I would think he might be in here or anything. Okay. I'm just trying to judge the vibe. Okay. A thousand animals are in here. [01:00:06] Speaker A: Yeah, lots of different kinds. You see, almost like a bird cage with a creature that looks like the creature that your brother Frederick appeared to you as many moons ago. Doesn't look like identical. So you don't think it's like him. You see, it looks like a little glass lantern with some sort of a glowing green light floating around in there. You see some more normalish kind of animals as well, different small mammals and cats and things like that. So Sean says, well, have you ever had a pet before or. [01:00:49] Speaker D: Yes, a cat. [01:00:52] Speaker A: All right, why don't you take a look around here? I was tending to. To my. My sturge here. It has a bit of a tattered wing, a little mishap when I managed to capture him. So just don't stick your fingers in anywhere, and you'll be all right. Um, I'll just be right here. He just goes off to the corner, and you can start looking around. But as you just sort of turn and, you know, cast your gaze over these. These containers, you hear in your mind. It's kind of like the message kind of thing. [01:01:26] Speaker D: Okay. [01:01:27] Speaker A: Very similar kind of feeling you hear. It's like a very small voice just says, get me home. [01:01:37] Speaker B: Oh, no. [01:01:39] Speaker A: And we're gonna find out what happens next time on pork fried dice. [01:01:48] Speaker B: Get me to bed. [01:01:49] Speaker E: I thought you were gonna do Mueller. Mueller. [01:01:53] Speaker A: Mueller. [01:01:54] Speaker B: Mueller. Mueller. [01:01:58] Speaker D: It should have been that. [01:01:59] Speaker A: Should have been that. [01:02:02] Speaker D: Being up so late, guys, I didn't realize how late it was either. [01:02:04] Speaker B: I know. We really went by. [01:02:06] Speaker E: We spent so long on those punch sounds, Eric, I'm sure. Just thought it would be, like, five minutes, right? [01:02:14] Speaker A: Yeah, we turned it into, like. That's that much info. That's that much stuff I didn't have to prep.
