The City of the Specter, Atem's Palace

[metagame]

The corpse sinks to the floor
Even the brightest gold, even the sharpest blade
Becomes sand, becomes dust

[ i cannot believe that joshua has to defend a conspiracy that he started himself but honestly that nat20 is coming in clutch because hey this is the nekyia right, so, he's going to be using an imprint, twewy style: take us inside the palace, we have a score to settle with the pharaoh. ]

Ah, that shyster? Should have sent some people running after him too, but I promise that we're not colluding with him in this case.

[ it's only convincing (maybe) because joshua did Not trade any of his clothes for the linens so he is still in his regular very non local outfit. ]

Anyway, you're right about the conspiracy. [ joshua's smile is razor sharp, confident, and he's laying it on thick just in case the imprint doesn't take on as hard as it should - the woes of being in a different universe. ] I have a bone to pick with your Pharaoh, so if you could please take us to him so that we can settle our score I would very much appreciate it~

Dude, that's an admission of guilt! Did you not hear me about gettin' a lawyer?!

[finalmix]

[ honestly josh would not know anything about lawyer procedure and such he is above the law so ]

Trust me on this, hm~?

[ wink ]

[prozaic]

What's faster, sneaking into the palace and searching for our quarry, or being brought to him directly?

[ shalem Gets Him








even though this was ray's idea ooc thank u for letting me steal it ]

[privatedomicile]

...ohhhhhhh. So we're trying to get arrested?

[beautifulknight]

[ His head just whips in this direction- ]

...Really?

[ .........not how he'd like things to have been handled and he frowns deeply but Aeon knows once somebody says that it is too late. ]

[finalmix]

Yes, really~

[ argenti is getting a look that says shut up i have something planned because really, don't destroy his nat20 credibility thank u ]

[strawsandals]

[ledbythewind]

[THIS MIGHT AS WELL HAPPEN.]

[bloodweapon]

[Is... Is this what we're doing now??? We should've discussed a plan...]

[finalmix]

[ HE HAS A PLAN TRUST HIM ON THIS ]

[cleansewithfire]

[ ...That's one way to get into the palace, she supposes. ]

[emptyself]

And I tried so hard to live a crime-free life...now I'm really going to die.

[ soujuurou is still not aware that he is not being noticed. ]

[finalmix]

[ he's getting an elbow in the ribs because quiet, soujuurou ]

Stop saying that, I'm trying not to get us all killed.

[ i can't wait for them to realise that soujuurou's not being noticed ]

[metagame]

The Naga aren't sure what to do. A few of you seem innocent. And Soujuurou completely non-existent.

"He's right. We should bring them all to the Pharaoh and the Great Priests. This isn't our jurisdiction."

"But how? They're not opening the gates for anyone."

"We can try sending word by falcon. Maybe that'll do the trick?"

"I don't get enough bread for this..."

"Foreigners, you're hereby arrested in the holy name of Pharaoh Atem! Come quietly or face the consequences!"

[emptyself]

[ he's just frozen in fear. that's all. ]

[townmusician]

[well thank god this can't reach the tabloids back home....................]

[privatedomicile]

[Jesse puts his hands up.]

Aw shit, guys, our master criminal plan has been foiled! Guess we gotta face holy judgement!

[✨Victory✨

Shalem, having been shirtless this whole time, is now pulling his shirt back on, but the jacket stays off, and the tunic gets turned into a neckscarf. HE'S READY TO GO TO JAIL, FAM.]

[finalmix]

[ breathing a sigh of relief because the plan Worked ]

Oh, we'll come.

[ it sounds like a ✨Threat✨ except see icon ]

[bloodweapon]

[This might as well happen, he supposes. As long as they aren't trying to confiscate his weapon, we'll probably be fine.]

[beautifulknight]

[ Can't believe he's getting arrested...even in just a palace mindscape. ]

Very well. We shall comply.

[ Argenti does not put up resistance and will head along whenever; though we might have a problem if they try to bind wrists or like take away weapons. Other than that, it should be fine. ]

[cleansewithfire]

[ This may as well happen she guesses. ]

[ledbythewind]

[No one in Windor can ever find out about this...]
