The Revenge of the Entish Bow - RPG - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

The Itship, or the Fellow/Galship, or the Gal/Fellowship, or the Gallows-ship stood in stunned silence for a moment.

Unfortunately, as shocked as they were by this revelation, everybody’s minds quickly drifted off the point.

Merisuwyniel was filled with hope that Gravlox was watching her in her moment of glory with her hair flying out behind her (with no breeze) standing so that her magnificent figure could be viewed to best advantage.

Vogonwë was wondering how in the world Merisuwyniel could get her hair to do that, and if Pimpi had broken a few of his ribs.

Orogarn Two was calculating how he could make another remark ending in "-ly" so that Merisuwyniel would fulfill her promise to spank him.

Chrysophylax briefly considered ending the debate by devouring everyone, but decided not to.

Kuruharan was still wondering what in the world had come over him to get him to actually volunteer to go on a rescue mission, FOR FREE.

Pimpi was wondering if she had written down O Lando’s phone number, and if there was any way that she could get in touch with him in the next five minutes.

Merisuwyniel’s hopes at least were fulfilled. Gravlox was standing there enraptured with his mouth hanging down (and drooling on the ground). He had completely forgotten that his life was in danger. He had also forgotten to breathe.

Suddenly, Vogonwë broke the silence.

*HARACK* *HARRRWCK* *GACKKCKH* *HOURCK* *SPITOOOIE*

A massive hairball crashed down into the middle of the group.

"Eeeeewwww!" went everyone.

*UK* went Gravlox as he collapsed on the ground. The act of expressing his disgust at the hairy monstrosity had used up the last of his oxygen.

"My darling!" screamed Merisuwyniel, as she rushed to his aid.

"What happened?!" yelled everybody else.

"He’s passed out!" cried Merisuwyniel. "There is nothing else for it! I’ll have to do mouth-to-mouth!"

So saying she scooped Gravlox up into her arms and performed mouth-to-mouth on him, even though it looked more like the climatic kiss of a particularly nauseating romance movie.

"I say, this is going atrociously…abominably…disgustingly…repulsively…" Orogarn Two bawled, hoping that Merisuwyniel would drop what she was doing and come over and "punish" him.

Gravlox eventually started showing signs of life.

"He’s coming to," said Merisuwyniel. "I’ll have to take him off into the brush to find some special herbs to cure him."

"What?" asked Orogarn Two.

"But I have some…" said Kuruharan.

"No, no," said Merisuwyniel. "I have to get him out in the bushes to heal him."

With that she picked Gravlox up and carried him off into the underbrush.

"Uhhh…" said Vogonwë

Orogarn Two collapsed on the ground and started crying.

"Anybody up for a game of cards?" asked Kuruharan, desperately trying to find some way of salvaging this deplorable situation.

Nobody had anything better to suggest so within moments they were sitting around a table that Kuruharan thoughtfully provided, each with a pile of chips in front of them.

"What are we playing?" asked Vogonwë.

"I thought that we could play some stud poker…oh…wait, NO!" said Kuruharan, suddenly remembering the rather awkward situation that had brought them to this pass.

"Draw poker, I meant to say draw poker!" corrected Kuruharan hastily. "Everybody ante up!"

"I can’t!" wailed Pimpi. "That monster that is off cavorting with Merisuwyniel killed my auntie!"

"Oh dear," moaned Chrysophylax. "This is going to be a long game."

Suddenly revived by the three aces that he held in his hand Orogarn Two abruptly remembered something important.

"I call!" he said, "By the way, isn’t there somebody that we are supposed to be rescuing?"

"Four kings," said Kuruharan. "I win, and I haven’t the faintest idea what you are talking about. Rescuing somebody, as if anyone could be bothered with rescuing somebody when an important poker game is going on."

"Indeed!" said Vogonwë. It was his turn to deal and he hoped that he could improve his luck in the next hand.

"Indeed!" said Pimpi as she munched on her latest snackin’. She had only one pair in the previous hand and was certain that she had gotten her bad luck out of her system.

"Indeed!" said Orogarn Two. He had to get his money back.

"Indeed!" said Chrysophylax. He knew 101 ways to stack the deck and was certain that he would come out on top in the card game. And even if he didn’t, he and Kuruharan had an arrangement to split their profits so he would not end up being the loser.
