Molag Bal Game #8

[Arch-Mage Matt]

"I never knew Tim well. He seemed nice enough. I don't know why anyone would choose Tim..." Matt went on.

[MARS]

"Why can't I hear the rest of you?!" Mars shouted.
"This concerns all of us!"

[King Acunasti]

Acunasti sighed. "You can't hear us because I'm playing the bongos and we don't care what you have to say." he told Mars. He continued with his bongo playing.

[Arch-Mage Matt]

"Only a heartless man would be doing what you're doing right now. This is disrespecting the dead... unless you killed him, of course." Matt accused.

[MARS]

"Acunasti seems awfully happy." Mars said.

[Leilah]

"Oh shush, you're all behaving like children!" Leilah shouted. She was feeling a bit on edge; for some reason Acunasti's bongo-playing made her feel like having a few bottles of wine. Strange, seeing that she only ever had a glass of sherry when she was cooking.

"It's not like we have a shortage of suspects. Choosing too rashly can mean that we'll all end up dead. I heard about this village over near Blankenmarch. Ten innocent corpses. Most of them killed because of fear and paranoia. I don't want that to happen to me," Leilah said, suppressing an involuntary shudder. "And Acunasti, if you don't stop playing those bloody drums, we'll do a little experiment in where I can shove them."

[Jcnator]

"Ok, I think that accusing each other will not solve the problem" Jc said trying to calm everyone. " And King, I think this isn't the appropriate moment to play your bongos and where "monkey" masks". Jc said

[Arch-Mage Matt]

"Maybe we can fix this. Who knows? We could set up a Night Watch. Maybe my magic can get us out of town..." He started. "...I doubt my magic could rival a God's. But it's a start."

[King Acunasti]

"ENOUGH!!!!!!!!" King A boomed. "We shall wait and listen...to the bongos."

He tapped his bongos three times. "Yes...Yes..." he mumbled, acting as though the bongos were speaking to him. "I understand, bongos!" He turned to the others. "The bongos tell me that the murderer is..." he pointed to a nearby squirrel. "THAT SQUIRREL!!! Tim was butchered by an adorable rodent! Case closed!"

He went back to playing his bongos.

[Arch-Mage Matt]

"Oh, everyone, of course! That squirrel is the murderer! Thank you, madman." Matt went up to Acunasti and snatched the bongos from him. "And it was assisted by... these bongos!" He kicked the bongos into the nearby bushes.

[MARS]

"So." Mars said.
"What shall we do with this S'wit?"

[King Acunasti]

"No it was not!" Acunasti exclaimed, ignoring Mars' words and somehow pulling another pair of bongos from his pocket. "Matt lies! HE LIES!!!!!!!!!!"

He played his bongos again, this time playing at a faster pace.

[Jcnator]

Jc decided to ignore Kings actions thinking that he has had to much skooma. "Matt is right, we should mount a night watch and defend our selfs. I think we should all pass the night in the main building and take turns of 2 hours".

[King Acunasti]

It's been a while since I've laughed that hard at someone's post.

[Arch-Mage Matt]

Spoiler:

How did I know that was going to happen?

"Shut up, you bongo-playing madman!" Matt shouted. "It's time to get serious. Unless you think this is just a joke - which is very suspicious."

[MARS]

"I tire of this scampcrap." Mars said.
"Let's just be done with this shall we?"
With these words he unsheathed his silver dagger.

[King Acunasti]

Spoiler:

Matt, you and I both know you can't take away a man's bongos without punishment.

Acunasti raised his hand. "I...um...I...I actually do think that this is quite funny."

[MARS]

"Do you now?" Mars said and grinned.
"I think so too."
He started moving closer to Acunasti.

[Arch-Mage Matt]

As soon as he saw the silver dagger, Matt backed up slowly. "OK, Mars." He said slowly. "Just put that away. I'm sorry for raising my voice."

[Jcnator]

"Whoa, theres no need to get violent" Said Jc while backing up.

[King Acunasti]

Acunasti raised his hand again. "I am actually happy that I raised my voice." he stated. "If I had not raised my voice, we would have never found out that the killer was that squirrel."

[MARS]

"Perhaps Acunasti should stop his funny business." Mars said.

[Arch-Mage Matt]

Matt stopped playing along with Acunasti. "Stop. This. You know the murderer could not have been a squirrel. It was a person. Like me... or you."

[MARS]

"Yes." Mars said and looked at Acunasti.
"Like you."

[King Acunasti]

Acunasti quickly pulled a severed horse's hoof from his pocket. "THIS," he said, holding the hoof up for the rest to see. "IS EVIDENCE THAT THE SQUIRREL HAS COMMITTED THE CRIME!!!"

He shrugged. "Or it could have been me." he said simply. "I once killed a giraffe while I was playing the bongos. Why wouldn't I be able to kill a person?"
