Café de Nuit

The young student in Niles' apartment looks confounded at first, then decides to go with the priest.

Niles goes down the hill as fast as he can.

Spot check: DC 15.

Oliver comes protectively towards Christine, and shrugs the men away with protective gestures. It doesn't take much for them to understand the general meaning of Christine's cries, and they whisper among themselves, until one says: "Perhaps we should send for a wife from the College as well. I ...

Even before Oliver starts explaining their predicament, a couple of men rush towards Christine at sight of her discomfort. They lay her on the grass and ask her not to move. The man that first had answered to Oliver frowns a bit, even as the boy explains in an unsteady voice that they need father Ni...

There, I have posted.
I am moving house this weekend, and I don't know when I'll have internet back. I can still use it until Saturday, I guess, but then it is not clear.
But I will try to post as soon as possible.

The student follows Niles' words nodding more slowly now. "You understand, Father, you understand... Let me stay here for a while, let me pray here, for I believe Our Lord will not let her enter this place. Not even in her thoughts! The student kneels to pray, and ignores Niles for a good while...

Very busy for the next two weeks. I am not able to say when I will be able to post next.

As Christine speaks, she can see Oliver's face blush more and more, and him becoming more agitated. As she finishes it, she is shaking his head and saying: "Please, Christine, put that idea away! That is a calamity you would be bringing over yourself. You should never trust these men to keep se...

Oliver bites his lip, trying to suppress his frustration. He speaks in a hushing tone: "I guess we have to wait. It's not a good idea to go out there in the light now. I've heard dogs, they might be looking for us." OOC: Hide check for Christine, DC 10. If all goes well, the workers will s...

The duo advance safely across the grounds. Christine spots someone higher up the hill, apparently a girl in school's uniform, looking in their general direction then moving away slowly as if searching for something. It seems she did not see them. In approaching the boiler house, Oliver leads them to...

Under the influence of the prayer, the student seems to calm down. He firmly believes that the holy protection invoked by the words can protect him here. "Father, I'm afraid... There's this special course work I have... a teacher. I study with her... but that is not all. She takes and gives... ...

"The chaplain lives near the chapel, of course", Oliver says as they go up the hill. "I suppose Father Niles will do as well, but that also is the most watched part of the school. One way is to follow the main road without entering the school grounds, and try to slip through the main...

Oliver looks back with a dubious gaze.


"If you say so, Christine. Certainly those sounds were strange, kind of bestial if you ask me. I'll keep my mouth shut.


He hesitates just a bit and then changes the subject completely.


"Well, let's get up there then, shall we?"

Thanks, AG. Yep, sometimes it's hard to maintain both things going at the same time.
Too much happening.

The student presses on "Father Richard is old, and he would do nothing. He would not understand! But you are young, you care, I'm sure you could help.... Look, maybe you don't want to confess me, perhaps you're not ordained yet? But you surely must know the rites, you surely must know how to in...

Again have to apologize for the absence this week, but rather many things happening.
