Re: IC - Chapter 1 - New York, January 1925
Upon seeing the horribly-masked attacker with a machete, DL crouched low and readied for action. From his years of professional baseball training at second base, he'd become expertly capable in this position to react quickly, whether diving and catching line drive bullets from hitters or leaping ove...

Re: OOC - Chapter 1
You're welcome! If you want to resume BtMOM, I can pull it out of the Graveyard for us. Hi Mr. Handy, Yes, I do intend to start BtMoM back up. I may take a couple of weeks before beginning in earnest, but it'll be nice to see it on the list again. I'll take a bit of time to settle in with Raiko's M...

Re: OOC - Chapter 1
Thanks Raiko and Mr. Handy!
It's good to be back, hearing from friends, and getting the creative juices flowing. I see that Royya is still around too! I'll have to reach out to Anatomist.
I look forward to getting into lots and lots of trouble in the coming months.
J.

Re: OOC - Chapter 1
Hello all. Mind if I join the party? Dayton needs some exercise.
I would surely love to take part in some fun, interactive fiction after my long time away.

Re: CHAPTER 5: IC - At Sea > Panama to Australia
James Starkweather says, "Exactly right," and asks for help from a nearby seaman. Once he's finished tying the box, they lower it without event into the ocean where it sinks beneath the waves. Everyone breathes a sigh of relief. And then the commander says, "So let's now gather in the...

Re: CHAPTER 5: IC - At Sea > Panama to Australia
The team retrieved a wooden box from the kitchen and filled it with fresh water-- Vittorio cautioned against using salt water to eliminate the possibility of an unanticipated chemical reaction. He slowly immersed the cloth-covered blasting caps in the water and breathed a loud sigh of relief. He the...

Re: CHAPTER 5: IC - At Sea > Australia to Antarctica
Sykes emerges from the shadows with a coil of rope over his shoulder and an electric torch in his hand. He hands the torch to Paco and waves him up the ladder, then helps Vittorio to his feet. Vittorio stands, grimacing and clutching the ladder for support, but seems unable to straighten fully. Syk...

Re: IC - Prologue - New York, June 1924
