Blood Run: A Terror Returns Discussion Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Dunwen - If Morm wouldn't mind adding a couple lines of dialogue to his post, you could do it that way. Just post what you want him to say here on the discussion thread, or you could pm him.

Possibly, just let me know. Kuric does mutter to himself a lot but it could be overheard. Let me know what you would like to say. I don't mind a heated debate

I'm back and I wrote something.

From now on I will keep following and participating in this RPG more actively, as my summer holiday is over.

If my post causes problems when you write the Kuric-Sam -dialogue, just tell me - I can edit or delete it.

I'm not sure if I understand this concept so may I save the next post for me? I think it would fit rather well. The way I envision it happening is Kuric discuss the topic of the new people mentioned and then Sam can interject if he chooses.

Morm and all,

This is what I was thinking of for my next post, in the quote below. My original idea is that Sam heard one of Kuric's mutterings and is responding to that. However, if what I have below won't work with the story, let me know -- I'll be happy to edit. I'll wait till somebody tells me to post it or edit it.

Quote:

"Volunteer to look good, is all they're doing and then when danger looks at them they put their tail between their legs and run. Bah!" Kuric spat.

Sam frowned. He wouldn’t be much of a hobbit if he didn't stick up for his friend.

“If I was you, Master Dwarf,” he said firmly, “I wouldn’t be so hasty to judge people. I’ve known Eric for twenty years and there’s no cowardly streak in him. But if he came with us and got hurt or worse, his ma and sister would be hard pressed to feed themselves. And he didn’t volunteer like the rest of us did. The mayor just told him he was going, willy-nilly.”

After a short pause, Sam cleared his throat self-consciously and addressed the girl. “Begging your pardon, Miss Leonora, but Jak might not be just a gaffer’s tale,” he said slowly. “Once or twice a year when we were boys, Eric and I would slip off to the Chetwood for a couple of days. Most of the time we'd do our hunting and come back home. But there were a few times when we thought we heard somebody chanting-like, pretty far away. It was always happened at night. We never could find out who it was. We did find Man tracks one time, and a fresh squirrel skin without any arrow mark, but that's all."

I'm working on a post, but will wait till Morm and Dunwen have finished their thing.

I think that it would work better, maybe, if Lommy's post came after Sam blew up at Kuric. She could maybe add near the beginning of her post that she(Leanora) was trying to change the subject back to the point. I just thought of this, so I'm not sure if it would work.

Dunwen, I don't think that your post in its present form really fits. Perhaps if you started it off with something like: "As the others moved on, Sam was still thinking about Kuric's harsh words about his friend, and finally he broke into the flow of conversation..." Rather than Kuric's quote.

The other way that I could see this working is that maybe Sam corners Kuric later on, after the meeting is over. Something like "I heard what you said earlier, even if no one else did..." Maybe he was standing next to Kuric? That would also satisfy Morm's intention that Kuric muttered it.
