Topic: Genesis Q&A
Subject: Working on it, folks.
Between my recent RL upheaval and the more recent rearranging of my office (which resulted in my misplacing a couple of things), my capacity as a GM has been hobbled. I've located everything I thought was missing and am catching myself back up (and finishing character creation for a couple of you)... Hope to have us back on track early next week, at latest.

Topic: Star Trek: Discovery
Subject: I really WANTED to like it...
...but the first episode "turned me off," so to speak.
Like Roger said, if you divorce it from existing Trek continuity, it makes for a fine show in it's own right, I suppose... but trying to make sense of it/fit it into canon... Maybe if I tied it to the Abramsverse Trek?
I may chance another episode... I have yet to decide.

Welcome back, brother!  *facelick*
P.S. I think Brom might be looking for a player or two for Bring Me That Horizon if that looks like anything you'd be interested in... Maybe shoot him a PM or tack a post in the QA, if so, and see what's what.

Subject: There's the latest from Fin
I neglected to mention that, while our quartermaster's eyes and ears are definitely keen for Kidane, he'll continue to "hunt for prey," as well... Looking and listening for the hint or promise of any potential targets and such, y'know.

Topic: Bring Me That Horizon
Subject: Stormbringer
Tuesday, June 3rd, 1670 a.d., Tortuga Bay Settlement (Ile de la Tortue), roughly 11:13 A.M.; The Town
"Is it Kidane's rest er my safety tha' concerns ya more, Raisa-luv? If it's th' former," he leers, gesturing at a random street or alleyway, "steer me a course to ‘im an' I'll loose ‘im from ‘is restlessness, aye?" His hand sweeps back, then, and comes to rest at his waist, a thumb hooking over the top of his belt as he arches a brow at the woman; "If it's th' latter—which I can't imagine, as ye've a'ready said ya din't miss me an', I reckon, I must've cost ya a pretty penny er two by spillin' LeRoux's guts—but if it is, poppet, ya just point me ta where I c'n find a prize ta hunt an' I'll be gone ‘fore th' rum's empty."
"Yer a fool!" She hisses and glances about,
"Been called worse by better," Fin responds flatly as Raisa's eyes flit about.
"Kidane'll know yer here ‘fore the hour is closed an' if ya know what's bes' fer you an' the crew you sail with, you'll be long on the wind afore then.
"You comin' back here is the black cloud on the horizon. A storm was brewin'. Jus' a taste on the wind, but you, you be a stormbringer, Fin Crowe. Don' say I dinna warn you."
With a rustle of whirling skirts, Raisa turns about in anger and strides into the watching crowd. Nearby, a bird cries—a crow, harsh and just as angry sounding as the whore looks. Sounds rush back into Fin's senses and a quick look about shows that many a person is studiously about their business as though they hadn't just witnessed what they'd witnessed.
The Sun Dog's quartermaster, one hand yet resting on the hilt of his blade and the other, now, perched easily atop the butt of the pistol tucked into his sash, lofts an irritated snort at the whore's warning and spits into the dirt at his feet. "Storms don' brew up on their own, Raisa-luv," he says to the retreating woman's back, "Stirred by outside forces, they are!
Aye! I may be bringin' th' storm, but it were the likes o' LeRoux an' Kidane tha' summoned it!" The hand resting on his pistol lifts, then, and Fin throws a dismissive wave in Raisa's direction before spinning on his heel and storming off in the opposite direction. The brand on his chest burns and itches as if it were newly pressed, the cawing of the crow echoes in his mind along with Raisa Taïa's admonition, a grimace sets tightly over his mouth and he squints skyward, checking the sun's position in the sky,
Kidane'll know yer here ‘fore the hour is closed an' if ya know what's bes' fer you an' the crew you sail with, you'll be long on the wind afore then.
, An hour, Raisa had said.
Storms c'n do a bloody fair sight o' damage in an hour, Crowe muses, his eyes tearing from the sky and settling back to the street before him. If Kidane's lookin' ta face th' maelstrom, let's make it easy fer ‘im ta find, But th' black bastard'll be goin' nowhere near me crew!
His eyes scan each face and shadow and nook as he strides along the street in search of a tavern or grog shop in which to await Kidane's promised coming and, as he walks, his fingers busy themselves with the workings of a fresh smoke,
((OOC: As noted, Fin's off in search of a place to wait out Kidane (with any luck a place bereft of any of the Dog's crew - Fin doesn't want Kidane to be aware of any of them, especially the Coles). Assuming he finds and arrives at such a place, unmolested, he'll order up a bottle of rum, find a spot where he can keep his back to the wall and his eye on the entrance, and sit, allowing the tempest to churn, so to speak.))

Ain't that the truth?!?!
Funny how that direction always seems to come around to someone (usually Sam) gettin' shot, though, innit?

Subject: ALWAYS lookin'.
"What'll ya have," Kim asked as Sam drew up to the bar and rested his elbows on the counter.
"Whiskey," Dash answered, "make it a double."
"Ice?"
"Neat."
"Can do," the barman shot back, producing a bottle and a glass from under the counter and pouring a healthy sample.
"Xie xie," Sam nodded taking up the drink. He turned, then, and leaned against the bar, content for the moment to nurse his whiskey and watch the room. His gaze picked out the crew, first, of course - Wyatt settling into a game of cards with the ranchers at one table, Jade seemingly having found herself a spot at another game, and Asher, of course, was talking, no, drinking with the prettiest woman in the bar.
Mudder's Milk, Kid? Really? Dash couldn't help but smirk and shake his head a little. If yer plannin' on a grapple wit' tha' philly, I'd steer clear o' tha' go suh.
As was his nature, the pilot was set to make a rather untoward comment to Asher about the situation but, before he could swallow the first sip of his whiskey, freeing up room in his mouth to let the crude comment fly,
"Excuse me?"
,Sam swallowed the liquor, wincing faintly at the burn it left in his throat, as his gaze turned to the rather sickly looking man who'd just approached.
"I am Saul Potter," the man offered, "I am looking for a ship to provide transport. Are you part of the crew of the firefly that landed on Sarafina's land? Are you looking for a cargo?"
"Yup," Dash returned, indulging in another sip of his drink as he sized the man up, "I'm th' pilot. Name's Dash. An' yeah, Potter Shian Shen, I reckon we's always lookin' fer a cargo. Fella's gotta eat, dohn mah?" Sam offered an affable grin, then, and, with his glass, gestured toward where Wyatt sat; "Th' Cap'n's over there. Serious lookin' fella wit' th' serious lookin' hat. He's th' one ya'd wanna talk to ta get the deal done proper," Another sip of the whiskey brought Dash's eyes back to Potter, then, and he lifted a curious brow; "What's yer cargo, puhn yoh?"

Roll20 has an app for both Android and iOS. Don't know that it's as "robust" as the website itself but I downloaded to my tablet anyway. Check your device's app store.

Topic: Bring Me That Horizon Q&A
Subject: Clarity?
I think the idea is that, especially when it comes to combat situations, Roll20 provides the ability to share maps (on which our characters' tokens/markers will appear, allowing us to get a better visual idea of our surroundings, etc... additionally, any dice rolls that might be needed can be done by the players in the "chat" function of Roll20s site/app, giving us, the players, more "direct control"... and, from what I've read, any skills, traits, ect, that might apply to rolls can be drag & dropped from character sheets to the "map" and applied instantly....
Okay... I just read that and it sounds confusing, I suppose, but, trust me, I think this might just work out to be a good thing and, in the end, will serve to possibly immerse we players into the game overall.

Topic: Bring Me That Horizon Q&A
Subject: There's one from the Crowe.
Fin's hoping for either a fight or a "find," here...
On one hand, he'd love the opportunity to kill Kidane, I'm sure, but I don't know that he's willing to involve the Cole sisters (or any of the rest of the Dog's crew) in his past anymore than his presence in Tortuga already has done.
On the other hand, if Raisa chooses to maybe clue him in on, at least, a potential hunt, Fin's likely to stick to his word and see to it as best he's able that the Sun Dog's off in pursuit of that plunder ASAP.
...Either way, Crowe's most certainly keeping a keen eye peeled for Kidane from this point forward.

Topic: Bring Me That Horizon
Subject: Old, cold memories...
Tuesday, June 3rd, 1670 a.d., Tortuga Bay Settlement (Ile de la Tortue), roughly 11:12 A.M.; The Town
"Why are you back?"
"An' why wouldn' I be, Raisa-luv? If I dared believe it, I'd think ya din't miss me,"
Raisa's eyes narrowed as her full lips pressed together and she defiantly met Fin's gaze. "I didn'," she said, "but I know someone who did - someone who's been lookin' forward t' this reunion fer some time now."
His hand tightens a bit around hers and his eyes let go of her just long enough to scan the streets around them before he begins walking again, not quite forcefully hauling her along beside him as he continues his progress into the town. "Don' mind refamiliarizin' me wit' th' place, do ya, poppet?"
Tugging her hand free with no exaggeration of effort, the woman stopped dead in her tracks and forced Fin to turn from his progress once again to face her. "Yer no' listenin' to a word I'm sayin', Fin Crowe."
More than a few heads turned, but the glances are fleeting and cautious enough that, though Fin was sure there were many, he had caught but a few. His eyes chased the onlookers as his mind chased memories, Where'n th' hell do I know ya from, Raisa, he kept wondering, an' wha' in th' f**k're ya goin' on about?
"He swore he'd see you dead fer what you did," Raisa continued in a lower tone as Fin's gaze settled on her again. "He'll do it too. He won' rest until he's avenged LeRoux."
The mention of LeRoux's name cracked his memory like a lightning bolt might crack a mainmast. His fingers curled into tight fists, a phantom burning licked at the brand on his chest, and his storm-filled eyes might have blinked as the recollections came rushing back,
Raisa Taïa was a whore. One favored, all those years ago, by his former "master," LeRoux. In those days, Fin had only had passing interactions with the woman and, aside from her looks, nothing beyond that stood out any clearer in his memory. She may have been there when Fin finally killed the slaving bastard but Crowe couldn't remember for certain, the red cloud of rage clouded most everything but the violence he'd visited on LeRoux , and there had been many people there on that blood-soaked night - slaves and servants, foremen and crackers - there could be know way he'd have remembered them all.
Fin did remember one person who hadn't been there, though, and in that thunderclap of remembrance, he knew precisely to whom Raisa referred. Temesgen Kidane, a giant of an African with a lust for blood and more than enough skill with a sword to satisfy it. Kidane had been LeRoux's right hand man and, on that night, had been off-island (procuring new slaves or "enforcing timber contracts" most likely). Had he not been, well, that night might have sailed on a much different tide.
,Despite the cold fire that burned in his gut and the fact that his hand no longer just rested on the hilt of his blade but, instead, curled purposefully around it, Fin Crowe offered the woman a cold, mirthless smile. "Good ta know someone's losin' sleep over me," he rumbled.
"Is it Kidane's rest er my safety tha' concerns ya more, Raisa-luv? If it's th' former," he leered, gesturing at a random street or alleyway, "steer me a course to ‘im an' I'll loose ‘im from ‘is restlessness, aye?" His hand swept back, then, and came to rest at his waist, a thumb hooking over the top of his belt as he arched a brow at the woman; "If it's th' latter - which I can't imagine, as ye've a'ready said ya din't miss me an', I reckon, I must've cost ya a pretty penny er two by spillin' LeRoux's guts - but if it is, poppet, ya just point me ta where I c'n find a prize ta hunt an' I'll be gone ‘fore th' rum's empty."

Subject: Working on it...
...I won't go into detail but I've been dealing with some "domestic issues" that have necessarily pulled my attentions elsewhere (along with the standard rigmarole of work, etc) and have had very little time to even think of a post.
I think/hope those issues have finally been resolved and, with luck, I should be able to get back to posting very, very soon.
