We’ve all been mildly inconvenienced lately. Little curses like my lighters not working, Gary’s change in odor, Wesley’s ex-wives reaching out, and Bram bumping his toenail on doors. Some creep was hiding behind Wesley. He said he’d cursed the guild to not accept new members. “You’ll be coming to my dinner party or you’ll be more cursed. I’m bored and want company for a dinner party.
He was serving lemon pound cake and left over Ko’bal. Piprem was served canned soup and seemed to enjoy it. Bram ate knuckle sandwiches.
Our host asked if we were aware of “The Trolley Problem”. It’s a recent thing that’s come up. What happens if there is 5 people on the train tracks vs one person on another track? Who do you choose to die? Gary started talking into his hat and said this was still murder according to the dead. Bram questioned if Ko’bal was actually dead. Gary acted all squirrely.
Our host tested how we interact with trolley car system in real time. We are going to see which people we choose to save from a fireball. One human woman, or 10 goblins? We just couldn’t make any sense of this. Then he threatened if we were to sneeze 7 times we would die. Bram started sneezing. I changed the woman into a giant ape and dragged Bram closer to the lever. Bram made the trolley hit her. Our host seemed disappointed.
On the way to our next challenge Gary started on about Ko’bal again. When is he gonna' just get over it? Bram mentioned that a crab ripped Kobal in two.
Our next challenge was a falling bolder, with a choice of 10 goblins or 20 kobolds. Bram just put all 30 together and stopped the boulder. I made a suggestion and was also uncursed. I immediately lit up and the host asked if I’d seen the no smoking sign. I don’t really care about his asthma.
Gary and Pip tied themselves up for our next challenge. Our host “pretended” to be a vampire and threatened to eat one of them. Bram held him while Mimic saved our co-workers.
He was so impressed with us that he asked us to fight his adult men. How do you defend yourself against little, tiny vampire adult men? With fists and weapons I guess. He also brought out trolleys, and a t-shirt cannon. Then he dropped a boulder on my head and said I was stoned. Truth. Maybe that’s why I thought this chest tat was a good idea.
