    "Follow me." Esther guides Xun to Dipsnig's office where she knocks.

    As usual, the response from the other side of the door is "Come in."

    The door opens, once again seemingly of it's own will, and Esther steps inside, presumably followed by Xun. "We have a former member here that claims you would remember her."

    After corralling the stray ball of yarn and picking it up in her mouth, Xun follows Esther in.

    Dipsnig is found sitting behind his chair. He peers at Xun and his ears twitch as he sifts through his mental catalog of people.

    The multi-tailed ghost feline gently sets the yarn-ball down and pats it. "Xun. I would have been more corporeal and had fewer tails. Worked most closely with Raz, went missing on a mission Riverside?"

    Dipsnig nods.
    "Ah, yes. I remember you. I'm afraid Raz is AWOL, though, and has been for a while. Now, may I ask what happened to make you incorporeal and give you a few more tails?"

    "Strange. Do you remember where you were shot? Or by whom?" Dipsnig does feel some inclination to find out who shot at his members, absent though they may have been.

    "I'm good thanks. Got my hit points back after the last night." Vincent replies.

    He prepares himself for a trio of carsets onslaughting Caroline.

    The Carsets are slightly larger since last they saw them. There more like German Shepherd sized kittehs now.

    Misty immediately leaps up onto Caroline and begins sniffing her. After finally judging that she is the same Caroline, she begins licking her.

    Tony seems a bit standoffish, looking past Vincent and Caroline, as if hoping for someone to be there. But he eventually goes to Caroline for pets.

    Junior walks deliberately between Misty and Caroline, knocking Misty off balance, and sits down in front of Vincent with his usual glare.

    Vincent sniffs. Almost with disdain at Junior. But is otherwise neutral/pleasant enough.

    Caroline pulls out a large plate of steaks from the fridge and walks them over to the counter.

    Almost instantly she has the attention of all three carsets. I don't know. What if they get hurt? I don't want to lose Misty. she begins to unwrap the meat slabs.

    Junior looks back at Vincent and nods his head toward him. Vincent may gain a new level in Carset Handler, which will allow him to Summon Junior.

    Surt enters into the main room. He lets the warmth gather in him before speaking. "Thanks for letting me in. What do I need to do next? After application, I mean....... uh.... I don't think I got your name. I'm Surt as you've read."

    He made a sort of bow with his right hand on his left chest as he said his name. It was something he saw someone who named himself a knight do, not that he knew what a knight was. It was simply the only greeting gesture he knew.

    "Jakus," the half-ogre says, "I do most things if the coin is good enough, but my particular talents lie in the realm of breaking bones, as you can likely tell from my stature. We don't stand too high on ceremony around her, Surt, but it's important that if you want to join you'll have to speak with Dipsnig. He's the boss man; just because he's a goblin doesn't mean he can't kick your ass."

    Surt sighed inside. He guessed that Jakus would pummel his bones if things went awry. He'll have to be careful not to talk so much. Probably replying to only what was asked is the best option.

    There are two summons listed in Vincent's spells now.

    1. Defend- Junior appears and takes 25% of the next attacks damage. Self only.
    2. Track- Outside of combat. Junior appears and attempts to point Vincent toward his next goal.


    Caroline looks to Vincent with a smile. Misty just leveled me up as a Carset Handler. I can summon her to help us in Combat now.

    Well the first is practically useless compared to just using the defend option, but Vincent definitely sees using track a fair bit.

    "Yeah, Junior did too." Vincent will give Junior some tentative pets. "I guess Tony is just too good for anyone."

    Tony whines at that, and lays down on the floor, head on his paws.

    Caroline pats him. No. He misses Jamie. Though I doubt she'll come back after tha last time. she gives Vincent a significant look, as if it's his fault.
