Actually, it's Returning a Favor. You were close though, as the (previously held back) Special Quality is Family Breakup.

Yeah, that was my second guess.

By the way, should the Stress loss start with your post, since Tammy went to sleep right away, or the next post?

I would vote that this counts as Tammy's first 'stress' post, but... so that means that she has to have two more ostensibly non-trivial posts that involve her sleeping? Is she a really messy sleeper, or do we get to see her kitty dreams? ^_^;

I was guessing the next post, since it was at the very end of that post when Tammy fell asleep. (What was the agreed upon rule for that again?)

As to the Stress Explosion posts, I was thinking I'd have her talking in her sleep, though I won't rule out some "incidental" sleep movements.

And to reiterate a previous question: Do I roll for Olivia's Stress loss from Power of Friendship or does Rena?

And something changes! Can you guess what?

Hint: Kyla has been acting pretty neutral toward everyone up until now.

All the maids upstairs fail their cuteness saving throw and for 11 minutes forget all about the mansion being under siege. ^_^;

...So yeah; Berenice can deal out Punishments as she pleases whenever one of the other maids does something wrong, and Gemma lazy and doesn't have the willpower to resist being naughty. I can see where this relationship is going.

Hmm... you know, we have a full-scale assault from OFFE going on and it hasn't even been a full day since Dan's big reveal. You'd think that since the location of the MacGuffin papers has already been compromised, Dan's superiors would decide to put them somewhere safer or else take other precautions before the end of he original seven-day time limit O_o;...

Though i guess if His Supreme Darkness manages to steal them, some time could be spent trying to steal them back before he figures out what to do with them or anyone else finds out. After all, even as silly as he is, Wally might realize that if he advertises his possession of them to the world before he even figures out what they are, he'll probably have assassins from every other major crime syndicate crawling down his chimney and out of his toilet before he can say, "Hmm, i didn't know this had a bidet function..."

Okay, I've had one Stress Explosion post and (as I type this) 5 posts followed it. Given the agreed on Stress loss during the Explosion (page 21 in this thread); Tammy has lost 5 Stress, leaving 6 to go before waking up again.

I'll get one more in, them I'm retiring for the night a little earlier as I didn't get much sleep myself last night. Great game so far. Let's all keep up the good work.

Alhazard: Well, until the basement is accessable again, Dan isn't able to contact his superiors from the safety of the mansion.

Aye, i didn't anticipate him being able to do it today; just wondering what sort of spy business AWNN is running if they decide to leave the papers with Dan and the maids even after they're informed of the fact that OFFE knows about them ^_^;...

Okay, favor roll for Hui Jong... 6. Man, I keep getting really decent rolls out of Invisible Castle (this roll: http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3207566/). So that brings her affection to a grand total of 8.

And Suika got a total of 7 on her favor roll (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3207756/), bringing her total to 17.

Checking in for the morning: Judging by the posts since my last RP update, Tammy should now be at 1 Stress (and remain there until the next RP update).

Right now, it might be too soon for said update, as I was thinking the others would have left the infirmary before Tammy wakes back up (which I can't confirm at this time).

After a bit of thought, I've decided that Tammy's impediment will only apply to her speech. Including it in her thoughts can quickly turn her Verbal Tic into an Overused Running Gag. Not that it's not starting to degrade to that already.

Checking in again: I take that Tammy is now alone in the infirmary? If so, I'm going to go ahead with the next Stress Explosion update.

To make sure Tammy's Stress Explosion is over, I'll wait at least one RP post after this update for the next one.

Assuming that Olivia doesn't have to be dragged kicking and screaming out of the infirmary because Tammy isn't clean enough, Tammy should now be alone, yes.

[up][up]Now that I think about it, you have a good point. Maybe I should wait for Rena's RP update to make sure of whether or not Olivia resists Kyla's tugging.
