Booker and Jayson went to see a battle, and then went back to wait for Gorbash at a hotel in Roswell, where the group had decided to hang out.
We later went back to one of the battlegrounds to salvage whatever could be salvaged, and set Booker up as a one of them, by changing an ID of someone who was the closest match we could find. Unfortunately, it was done by Gorbash and all humans look pretty much the same to him ... He did finally get to use his Singing skill, though!
The plan being that Booker, disguised as lone survivor Nathan Anderson, would go into Coalition States and gain access to the Emperor by being the sole survivour of a terrible battle. Because surely the Emperor would want to pat him on the back for that?

“It doesn’t count as bribery – I’ve already been attacked.”
Player: “We are so easily duped.”
GM: “Who says I’m duping you?”
(trying to find out if the person waiting for them in a hotel lobby is Gorbash)
Booker: “Did he leave a name?”
NPC: “No.”
Jayson: “Does he … kind of look like me?”
NPC: “Is he your brother?”
Jayson: “…Yes.”
NPC: “Your evil brother?”
Jayson: “No?”
Booker: “He’s the prettier brother.”
Jayson: “Hey!”
Booker: “It’s true, though. We both know it’s true, however much we hate it.”
“At this point even Common Sense wants to facepalm.”
Player: “…For when Prozac goes in.”
GM: “Prosek.”
Player: “Whatever.”
Wednesday 22 January 2020:
Booker: “I guess I’ll have to figure out how farmers work. I used to just shoot them.”
Jayson: “God, I have a lot of skills.”
GM: “If you change profession you could have even MORE skills.”
Jayson: “Nah, you’re alright.”
Gorbash: “Whatever you guys would call me if you were racist.”
Booker: “‘The enemy’?”
(GM has a coughing fit)
Player 1: “Are you alright?”
Player 2: “He’s only dying, it’s fine.”
“We haven’t heard about an apocalyptic scenario involving vampires.”
“Give it time.”
“We’re now going to classify this trip as a montage!”
“If you cast Stone to Flesh on a stone golem, is it happy about being turned into flesh?”
“Mmm, sentient bacon …”
GM: “I did warn you there are nasty things in the river.”
Gorbash: “When I go in the river, there are NASTIER things in the river.”
“See you guys Monday for the Booker show!”
To be continued!
