DRABBLE CHALLENGE 2024: DAY 5 / RING Roma gets new clothes.
Rahadin’s armor fit Roma perfectly--an honest surprise considering so few things did. The fine leather breast piece lay flat and uncomplicated over his clothes. The boots neither squeezed his toes nor chafed his ankles. Even when the collar was clasped fully shut, he felt like he could breathe comfortably.
For someone who had a lot of complaints about clothes, Roma could admit that these were nice. They would serve as a good replacement for his tattered traveling leathers... though, cynically, Roma was fairly sure whatever benefit they provided would be negated by Strahd’s rage upon seeing that he, of all people, was wearing the chamberlain’s armor.
Roma fished out the signet ring Rabbit had plucked from Rahadin’s body; like everything else, it was a satisfying weight at the center of his palm. Roma remembered the monster hunter they’d parted ways with just a few days earlier.
“Knives would like this.” He thought as the raven insignia glinted in the early morning light. “I’ll give it to her the next time we meet up.”
Roma pocketed the ring again.
Well. Whatever. Strahd was dead set on killing everyone anyway. Not something a ring and some armor was going to change.

session rambling !!
LAST SESSION WAS FUN !!! there was a wolf fight in the beginning (attacked by many wolves) but we survived it and it was neat to see. how far we've come (not dying to many wolves)
we decided to go to the dusk camp bc one of the party members rescued some kids from Wolf Cave and we needed a place for them to stay while we dropped off one of the kids in Vallaki. Apparently in Vallaki, since its after?? Strahd tried to destroy the church?? the nine pointed sun group is having executions every day now for dissenters/anyone they dont like so its looking really rough in there
since we were in the dusk camp tho the party talked with kasamir but only one of the party members could really talk with him and they spoke entirely in elvish so no one else understood how legit wacky kasamir was talking (mickey mouse voice, this is a tool we'll use for later!!!)
Oh!!! I'm rotating roma's conversation with illyeria in my head tho... THEY STILL DONT SHARE A LANGUAGE SO THEIR COMMUNICATION IS STILL.. PRETTY CLUNKY BUT (HOLDS IT IN MY HANDS)
(CUT)
(underlines the 'more sex' option under blorbo meme) Just Kidding I need roma to have Way more sex so i can fill out that Bad Sex meme with Every Faux Pas roma would commit
a doodle of my most forbidden au, which is just imagining roma learning medicine from van richten post-strahd
Still thinking about earlier tweets. Scenes that happened between Van Richten, Roma's mentor and pseudo father figure:
Roma being brought back to life and tended to after dying
Exchanging of spells and healing/buffing during battle
Van Richten pulling Roma aside to A) break the news that he won't be here forever and B) informing Roma of his actual name all the while referring to Roma with his name rather than "boy"
Roma telling Van Richten literally everything about his life ever since he's last seen the guy
One time Roma had a screaming crying meltdown over his deal with Osybus and the whole time he was just crying about how he wants to be near VR and not Where He Was
Hunting with Van Richten one morning and asking if he can travel with VR after Barovia is over and VR begrudgingly conceding and then admitting that he has a GREENHOUSE THEY CAN VISIST!!!!!!!!!!!!
A little comic about how Aiden met Strahd and received a gift from him. ..and also commited a little social faux pas.
