Yours Truly

Meanwhile; the grey cloaked man had been busy grabbing whatever he thought he would need for his journey, he had eight strips of smoked beef, two sausages of questionable origin, one hundred grams of dried peas, a biscuit shaped brick made of flour and salt, a single loaf of brown bread, two whole carrots, a small canteen filled with water, a grey bag to carry it all in, and two bottles of beer, for use as a potential makeshift weapon, disinfectant, and to drink if the water ever runs out; after obtaining said supplies he walked back to where he last saw the engineer.

.... Oh, that's... I guess it's too late to wonder who I was screaming at for tea...

Alright so does this seem like a ridiculous shopping list to you? Eight strips of smoked beef, two sausages made from "beef", one large hardtack (of the old civil war variety which is better used as a bludgeoning weapon than as actual food), two loaves of brown bread, a canteen, 100 grams of dried peas, two carrots and a sack to hold it all in a single place. Also are all of the alcoholic drinks kept by "Cid" or was that just the whiskey?

The grey cloaked man rushed into the marketplace in search of the one most important thing on his mind right now; Food; granted he had just left some of his allies with a rather dangerous young man with a knife fetish,but he was fairly certain that dull knives would be beaten by android in any rock paper scissors inspired games; he stopped to smell the air, and he found no trace of that distinctive ocean smell; so seafood would be out of the way wouldn't it? he sighed; he could have really gone for some fish stew right about now. The grey cloaked man continued wandering the marketplace, until he found a neat little shop selling cooked meat; it was a feast to remember, and he felt quite guilty over not paying for it.

"If by civil you mean that I will not attack outside of self defense purposes; then yes, and no; despite their appearance; my shoes aren't made of chocolate; human beings don't wear chocolate shoes my android friend; that is a very silly thing to ask." The grey cloaked man performs his version of sneaking out; which involves finding an uncovered spot and running as fast as possible outside of the room.

This thread, it has taken a while to materialize hasn't it? Happy birthday Tempest, and please try and use your newfound young adult powers responsibly.

The grey cloaked man decided to try and sneak out of the building while the stranger was distracted, and he makes sure to whisper "I'm going out to get some food, make sure that he can't take his weapon back from the engineer, I'll be back shortly".

"Now that you know my name we can move on to more civil things, such as having a polite conversation without trying to kill each other." "I wonder... what the shopkeeper is thinking right now; heh a bunch of travelers entered his shop, nicked one of his beloved potions, had an argument, created a brand new translucent wall, and one of them made a sound reminiscent of thunder and laughter".

Master of the riddle of steel

Banned because that face is very punchable.

The grey cloaked man smiled even wider at this; he could barely hear himself think, but that seemed to get the point across to the young man; he had no idea that the android had a sonic weapon, and he imagined her charging across a battlefield with an electric guitar and a microphone; heh, a literal symphony of death. "Now my name is Solomon, and I am pretty sick and tired of listening to your aggressive 'I can kill everyone in this room if I wanted to'; sentiments; mostly because I find that to be quite impossible; now, do you want to know why you're not dead?"

"And I'm not trying to restrain you, young sir; I merely wish to have a very civil conversation over a hot cup of tea with some milk and honey, and civil conversation usually involves concealed weaponry not plainly visible ones of course; all though I do subscribe to the old school of pragmatic combat; where the only thing limiting yourself is your physical realities, and your imagination; now please sit down young man; I have yet to introduce myself properly." the grey cloaked man notices the whirring of fans, and his mouth twists to an almost chesire grin. "That; my dear friend; means that she is pissed off, now consider those metallic arms, and imagine one holding you down; while the other is currently breaking one of your arms while you try rather vainly to injure her with your knives; she is an android my young and foolish friend, and just like our dear old friend the robot; she feels no pain, but do you want to know what the difference is between an android and a robot my friend?" the grey cloaked man motions for the mechanical lady to continue.

"But unlike you I am always armed and armored, and this lovely lady can break your neck with her bare hands, and she seems to be on my side; so do you want to try this again? without the knives and the attitude? and it's not like a wizard would need something as crude as a pair of knives to fight"

"Eh suit yourself; your knives seem too dull to do anything anyway, meanwhile no matter what happens I can still bash your brains in with a book can't I? but anyway why are you here, and better yet why are you even awake? And walking around the place armed without anyone watching you; I am seriously disappointed at the entity right now."

Banned for not having enough steel types

the grey cloaked man facepalms at Alexandria's statements; why would she say that out loud? "Please ignore her for a moment; she's just a little concerned that a certain someone; as in you; might do something stupid, and lose your life in the process, now please sit down, and put your all three of your knives on the table; you look like the sort of knave that would hide a weapon somewhere obvious."

"You already said that; now why don't you put down your knives, and I'll consider not bludgeoning you to death" the grey cloaked man turned and whispered to Alexandria "Oh don't worry, I'm just trying to remind him that I kicked his ass earlier, and also that he's surrounded"

"Oh yes look at me; I am definitely the sort of guy to go around telling hostiles the full extent of my power; I'm not an idiot Stranger, and while I would love to wipe you off of the face of the earth right now; I feel like the rest of the group might disagree with that; would you like a chocolate coin? it's definitely not poisoned."

The grey cloaked man listened to the robotic lady's explanation, and he laughed at how ridiculous it was, I mean... did she seriously think that he would believe that? but then again; he just saw a dragon flying around, and it wasn't the small squat things back at home either; it was a gigantic majestic thing that looked like it would break every single bone in it's body if it tried to walk, and then there was the small matter of the lady inexplicably wearing a swimsuit in the middle off a barren wasteland, and wasn't he talking to a sapient robot in the first place? "Oh.... that's... definitely... something." The grey cloaked man turned suddenly as the one who had charred his coat and ruined several perfectly good books greeted him. "Back for a second round? because you ruined my perfectly good cloak last time."

"The woman with the metal mask, can you go over to her and ask why her eyes glow? and also if she is a necromancer? it's just one of those things that would go better when a woman is asking it you know?"

"Then may I ask a favor from you? it's perfectly harmless, and it involves no act of violence on mine or your part"

Nope. also hello Lugruf
