I was reading through some of our RP's and thought it might be fun to have a "Highlights Reel" somewhere to put snapshots from RP's that are either very funny or very clever, so that everyone can enjoy them. Also helps us if we see something that's entertaining, to know what thread its in, so we can go read it
Anyway, the scene that gave me this idea is from an RP called "Danger at Dawn" (title is hyper-linked) its an OLD one (from back when we were chat based), but the whole thing had me in fits of laughter. I could only choose one scene though, so I went with this one:
Caitlin looked up and saw Freestyle offer his hand to help her up. She accepted it, glad to be off the dirty ground. As she stood she realized her ribs felt tremendously bruised and bet that under her corset she would find that they literally were. Her captor had staggered back against the brick wall of the alley's surrounding buildings, but now he had recovered from the punch Free delivered square in his face. His nose was dripping a little bit of blood, and it looked somewhat crooked. The blood, Caitlin noticed, was not red... it was black- as black as his hair and as black as his eyes. He wasn't human. Caitlin drew her sword, expecting he wasn't going to walk away very nice nice.
[Flos Lychnis arrived at the scene and immediately ducked behind a wall, really more afraid than he was before. WhydidhedothisWhydidhedothisWhydidhedothis. He peeked around the wall and looked at the scene, trying to get a glimpse of who the bad guy would be so he could avoid them. Little did he know that his eyes would be giving off a light-orange glow in the dark.]
Freestyle: Hmm? You're that guy who's been wanted for kidnapping and raping innocent women. *giving a disapproving look and wasn't sure what to do until he saw something in the shadows out of the corner of his eye (another NPC). He smiled, knowing full well who it was and grabbed Cait's hand* Let him go, the police will catch him soon enough. *'Well... more like my guild will kill him before that' he though*
before they got more than two steps away, all three were distracted by a strange pair of glowing orbs bobbing around the darker end of the alley, the end of the alley the increasing sunlight hadn't touched yet. "Another witness, can't leave more of those hanging around" the villain bellowed as he ran past Cait and Free to snatch up poor Flos who was only trying to stay hidden. "Free, I know him!" Caitlin shouted as he began running toward the sunlight, "We can't leave him, I know him, he's the fiddler!"
Elowyss 'Ella' Cleireigh was on her way home from a guild meeting when she had heard an awful racket half way down the market street, curious as to what the whole commotion was about, she had decided to quickly make her way towards the shouting she had been hearing. Stumbling upon what seemed to be a scuffle between 4 people, appearing behind Flos to see the giant Andersweltler snatch up the young male she had been speaking to yesterday.
"GACK!!" [And Flos, the foolish boy, was taken.]
Freestyle: noticed the shadow vanish swiftly after the Andersweltler and looked calmly at Cait* He'll be fine but we should go after him just in case *he got on his skatecycle and went after him*
"AHHHHHHHHHHHH LEMMEGOLEMMEGOLEMMEGO!!!" [Flos kicked and screamed loud enough to wake the oldest woman in the city.]
really wish I had some wheels too right now *stricken with envy* Caitlin ran back toward the end of the alley where the mammoth-man, spotting his pursuers, smiled devilishly and carried Flos around the dark corner into another street knowing the rest would follow... what he hadn't anticipated was yet ANOTHER witness, as he tripped over Elowyss. He growled with frustration, threw Flos over his right shoulder, told Elowyss "you shoulda stayed home!" and then scooped her up on his left shoulder before marching off with both of them and still counting on the rest to keep up.
Pretty much bouncing straight off the Andersweltler when he crashed into her, Ella yelped lightly when she was picked up. "W-Wait! Let me go!" She struggled, hitting his back and kicking as hard as she could, "Let me GO! Right now! Or I swear..I-I'll...!"
[Flos thought he was going to be sick with all this movement until he saw the passenger on the other shoulder. Recognizing her, he decided to make the best of the situation and said,] "O-oh! You're the physician from yesterday! Ha ha ha, hello!" [He tipped his hat.]
