[Ardyn's already ruined his day so sure, why not at this point. ]

I mean, my idea of "hotels" ain't usually your idea of hotels. Not unless you wanna fight rats for your bed I guess.

Taking it you're part of the cavalry too then, huh? Didn't realise how far word had got how deep in the shit we are.

[nohrianrose]

Fair enough. I'll see about asking someone else, in that case.

But yes, I'm on my way with some of the Florida team right now~ We started putting the pieces together after blissful silence from some of the truly insufferable zealots ♥

[wiseoldbartender]

Probably smarter. Be kinder to yourself, Kiddo.

Yeah, they kept sending the fuckers. Cú wrecked the place me, Lapis and Jinwoo were holed up in which was fuckin' rude. Turns out the fuckers have got a prison for any of us who they can't make play nice or kill, so that was a fun thing to find out about. Fair warning, you guys are waltzing right into a shitstorm. Ain't none of us would blame you for avoiding it and staying alive.

[nohrianrose]

Oh dear, I take it the three of you at least have somewhere to stay in the meantime?

... Wait, a prison?!

[She is not going to say it but the "oh for fuck's sake" is palpable.]

Thinking on it, I should not be quite so surprised and yet here we are... Honestly.

Oh, we knew it was a godawful mess when we heard they sent Cú. But I will not be swayed from offering my assistance. The more people here to help, the likelier it will be for more people to make it out of this alive.

[wiseoldbartender]

Yeah, I got an old friend who's not part of the Order. He's given us a place to stay. We're safe there.

A fucking PRISON! They got people in deep sleep in there and fuckin' everything. Files on all of us, on how best to neutralise us if we step outta line. I mean, shit, we always knew we were one disobedience away from them hitting the nuke button on us, but they were real prepped for that.

[ Here they are! Dealing with this inevitable, terrible nonsense. ]

There is that. Don't say I didn't give you an out from the bullshit, though. Might save you from getting yourself killed.

[Not that he CARES or anything, because obviously he doesn't! He doesn't HAVE a heart! ]

How many idiots diving into the jaws of death are we looking at here? Who you got?

[nohrianrose]

Thank goodness.

I knew the higher-ups were atrocious, but this is next-level.

[Ugh, ugh, ugh.]

I do appreciate the out, even if I'm not taking it.

Well, there's five of us in this van including Velvet and myself, I think I saw someone from the Venice team express interest in coming, Miss Noel is taking a bus with that mentor of hers and Black Swan, and there might be one more group? I haven't looked in the Discord where we were discussing it in a while.

[wiseoldbartender]

Sure fuckin' is. I thought the worst they'd ever do to us was kill or seal us. Keeping us caged for an eternity wasn't on my bingo card.

Christ. That's a lotta people. [...A lot of people who might get killed helping them, but... ] Fuck. We might actually have a half a chance with that many people. We were pretty fucked with just the seven of us beforehand, even if any of the folks in the city decided to throw their lot in with us.

Fuck me, we might not die horribly.

[nohrianrose]

Nor mine.

Really, with the way the higher-ups have been running things, there's no shortage of people they've pissed off. And I suppose enough people were going to get tired of things sooner or later.

[They're all about to do something incredibly badass or incredibly stupid. Time will tell.]

[wiseoldbartender]

They sure worked real hard on making everyone as miserable as fucking possible. They can't be surprised that the dog they beat had turned around to bite them. You're right, that shit was inevitable.

Well. Glad for the help, I guess. If you guys are determined to come through all this. I'd say if we survived I'd buy you dinner, but they haven't paid us for three fuckin' months so you'll have to have it on lawway.
