Stealthily follow the Old Guard - 3 ( Easy, Req, Lotus)
Administrator - 2 (Thunderclaw, Stealthy)
Follow Team Dash - 1 (Tim)
Lotus gave a quiet sigh once he remained undiscovered, wondering what distracted 13th to let Tim loose.
Crouching behind walls, he followed the Old Guard up to the building that Tim had singled out. A faded wooden sign with illegible writing swung above the entrance as the Old Guard pushed it aside to enter. The old wooden floorboards creaked as the Old Guard looked around, dropping off their belongings. Lotus had made it up to the entrance, hiding against the front before peering in.
“Whooa.. This is kind of neat!” Tolvan mumbled as the Old Guard funneled into a larger room from the foyer. The cacophony of chairs dragging against the floorboards could be heard.
“THIS is where we plan our schemes!” Firedemon said followed by an evil chuckle.
“Ahh.. This is the life.” Req gave a lengthy sigh that was followed by a thud.
“Aw, come on, Req. Don’t place your dirty boots all over the table.”
“Does it look like I care, Firedemon? Spoilers: I don’t. I don’t care.”
Lotus took a deep breath before quietly stepping into the building. Testing the wooden floorboards, he awkwardly made his way to the threshold of the foyer and the meeting room, easing against a wall to listen to it. Peering around the corner, he could see Firedemon, Dragonruby, Stealthy, Req and Tolvan sitting around a wooden table with a rich, deep blue cloth over top of it. The room had a lengthy meeting table and an old bar in the corner.
“This seems eerily familiar… It kind of reminds me o-“ Req scratched his chin, looking around the room as Lotus quickly pulled back around the corner.
“I HAVE IT! ” Stealthy exclaimed with joy.
“Shut up, Req! We have schemes to enact!” Firedemon gleefully shouted as Lotus listened intently. Going to peer around the corner, he caught vision of something else in the room with him - Shizno. Shizno was still bundled in his sleeping bag, something that Lotus forgot to account for. Lotus bit his lip, dwelling on his options: Get out now and miss the conversation or risk getting caught by the Old Guard.
“Gentleman. Let’s push the Walrus Re-Election Committee over the edge…”
Lotus quietly swore to himself. “Stealthy’s dramatic fucking pauses…”
What does Lotus do?
- Stay and Listen at the risk of getting caught
- Leave now before Shizno wakes up.
