Re: log: flash/felicity mission
Reaper didn't move and hoped that the goblin thing didn't feel like inspecting the entire room. The good news was that it probably wasn't tall enough to find where he was hiding. Also, Felicity had the luck thing and this was a good place to put it to the test. It made Flash remember nights of playing D&D with the nerds who let him couch surf at their house. Roll the dice and check your skills. As it turned out the goblin was either too dumb or busy or both to bother venturing more than a couple steps into the pool room before grumbling in his nasally language and leaving. Flash figured Felicity just rolled a natural twenty.
Reaper turned to look at Felicity, knowing that they'd have to wordlessly communicate for a while. That was hard enough with people that he had worked with before. So with her? It'd probably be impossible unless she knew what she was doing. He hoped. Reaper waited for the amber light to fade into the hallway and then slowly reformed in a cloud of smoke. He moved soundlessly across the floor, turning to give her a look through the skull mask that boiled down to 'let's go'.
From the hallway, the could hear a hive of activity in a few rooms down. High pitched goblin voices shouting at each other over the sharp clash of steel hitting crystal. Were they mining something? Here? He wanted to just storm the damn thing, but if these guys were known for being tricky, one false move could make all of them vanish or scatter. The last thing Reaper needed was for any of these goblins to leave the house.
As he trailed the goblin down the long hallway, he quietly tried a couple doors. None of them were unlocked and at one point he jiggled the handle hard enough for the goblin to make a slightly suspicious sound around the corner. The amber light swayed and then started coming back their way. Reaper pointed at Felicity and then a door as if maybe if she tried one, it'd be unlocked and they could hide.
