Granted, we don’t know what the Sepia players are planning. But being as their avatars are the only current means to contact The Five, I think they’ll log in at some point.
Um about those pardons. We may have trouble giving them to Mass-murderer Mike, Genocidal Gary and Weapons-of-mass-destruction Wilma. But the rest of you are fine.
The best deals have both sides walking away thinking they had the better end of the deal.
In this case, I suspect part 3 of Bandit’s conditions was something Reynolds wanted anyway (for some veneer of plausible deniability) and parts 1 and 2 were things he knew would be needed for the plan to work at all in the first place. His is probably the position of someone who has an opening offer in mind that he expects the other side to bargain up from, and then she opens up with something at or even below what was going to be his opening offer.
THIS is how the guilded age is made. Main players from from the adventurer’s guild are going to start leading their own guilds. We already have Frigg pegged as the leader of the new church (probably the sisterhood of the indomitable frigging badasses), and now Bandit is creating a thieves guild. Who’s next?
I’m glad Bandit decided to give him a hand.
I sure hope Suicide Squad doesn’t come short.
I’m sure everything will be fine. There might be a few small problems, but Bandit seems to know what she is doing.
She doesn’t know squat!
But you can trust that she does know thrust.
After an apple she might have a little burpee, though.
That’s what the pig tails remind me of!
Somebody buy drinks. There’s a story to be told, and the main character is Bashmeister Berta.
I for one am very excited to meet Bashmeister Berta and her pears.
Bashmeister Berta has no peers. She stands in a class all her own. She is simply the best there is at bashing. z
No, he said pears. I guess Bandit ate all the apples.
I wonder how Bandit’s player is going to react when she logs in and sees that her character’s been made the leader of a brand new guild.
You assume they would log again at all.
Granted, we don’t know what the Sepia players are planning. But being as their avatars are the only current means to contact The Five, I think they’ll log in at some point.
I sense a slight amount of enthusiasm in that handshake.
How long before Bandit stabs another team mate, place your bets.
-2 days, to establish dominance.
But it was only a small stab.
Since her current team don’t include any berzerker-zombies, attempting to genocide the living, it seems unlikely to happen.
Probably best to meet the team before committing to that assumption.
That photoboming pear has incredible skills. Nobody even noticed…
*is confused*
*looks again*
*notices*
*starts laughing*
*does not stop* XD

These? No problem. Talks-in-the-theater Tyler, on the other hand…
Spoiler alert: Handling Talks-in-the-theater Tyler is actually how Bashmeister Berta earns her pardon.
Cool
shaking hands, both thinking “heh, sucker” at the same time

Bashmeister Berta… I’ve never seen her before but I already want to see her drunk in a bar with Frigg
I’m thinking that’s a smile of, “Oh shit, that was too easy… What the hell did I get myself into?”
Didn’t even have to use a Bandit Snack.
“Well, Mister Bedard; I spoke with Reynolds and it looks like y’ were right. The Science Academy’s going to need a new dean.”
“We’ll be turning down crimes t’ do y’r treason.”
Anybody but me read this and think of USA politics? (I live in the USA, so…)
Politics in general. Actually, now I expect all politicians to always work for their own sake…
Should’ve asked for more

Rabbit could found the Faceless.
Too soon?

YES!
Thirty bucks on an Ankh-Morpork City Watch stand-in
I love where this is going, and now I even know where this is going. :D
This was what we call ‘Day Zero’ today.
