Re: 07.05h: At the Docks

Ruben fights, successfully, to swallow his bile and not prolong the argument. "Very well, Lady Alys, if you'd like to try to reach him, I certainly will not stand in the way," he says as he makes an exaggerated move away from the prisoner. He is aware of a risk that he could be shown up if...

Re: 07.05h: At the Docks

"Attempted murder as a 'reasonable' response to whatever imagined slight they feel has been visited upon them!" Ruben stops a moment to compose himself, but fails to fully control the paternalistic attitude that the encounter has laid bare. "What I mean to say is, we've worked with th...

Re: 07.05h: At the Docks

"Well, our triathlete here doesn't seem like he poses enough of a threat to warrant much more of our attention," Ruben says, oblivious to how his dismissive arrogance fuels the captive's anger. "We can resume looking for the head troublemakers later. Shall I escort him to the guards' ...

Re: 07.05h: At the Docks

With a grunt and a lunge, Ruben bursts into motion at the edge of the group, where he'd been standing with his back turned, staggering a few steps to cradle the weight of the sailor's cleat he'd plucked out of the air. Moments earlier, it had been hurled from the underdeck of a docked and quiet ship...

OOC: agreed on the resolution of this thread and the next destination. I'd also like to hear Nathaniel's reaction.

Re: 7.05a: Exploring the City

"I think he'll come with us, back to the castle, for now. We'll learn whatever more we need from him and isolate him from the townspeople for your good ... and his."

"If a trial is warranted, we'll go forward once we're sure that the local authorities can handle it."

Re: 7.05a: Exploring the City

Ruben leads the senior police away from the rest of the crowd. "So now we know -- you and me, both -- about the drivers of some of the pair in this community. I want to take this slowly, but there will be demands for action. Demands for answers. Demands for leadership. We can provide some, you ...

Re: 7.05a: Exploring the City

Ruben addresses Jericho once before turning on his heel to address the gathered troop. "I'm still waiting for the information. To whom do you report? Cooperate and you'll live." He doesn't cringe at Jerico's first scream as he leaves him with Lady Alys. "It should be obvious that the ...

Re: 7.05a: Exploring the City

Ruben makes no move to restrain his colleague, but speaks up, addressing Lady Alys. His baritone cuts through the fear paralyzing Jericho's mind, but isn't enough to shake his gaze from the razor- sharp teeth facing him. "Well, what will it be, son? Your silence isn't helping us advance matters...

Re: 7.05a: Exploring the City

"A wise caveat, sir. Thanks for your time. We're just touring the city before tonight's banquet and would appreciate hearing how you and your men are finding it? Is this your entire cohort? Who's winning out there?"
