In order to do something before people can react you need to something which is swift enough that they don't have time.   However I suppose your point is made.

My post is edited accordingly.

what

Mortus, having positioned herself beside the door during the meeting, is leaving before Klaus can say or do anything more.   Fandir is objecting either because he doesn't realize how quickly one can open and close a door or because he thinks I was playing his character again.

My original post read "before anybody could react" but Fandir objected, for the above reasons so I edited it to include the amount of time [which I timed today to be sure] and thus the window of reaction time.   No doubt he will object again.

I guess we could roll some dice to see if any of those 50 things happen

Two players wanting opposite things....you make an opposing dice roll.

I say we go for ...uhmmmm initiative.

On the other hand I really start to not care again even though it makes it harder for Rufus to Master the game and makes for a less fun experience for everyone as one of the greatest things about pen and paper rpg is the players interacting.....

Rufus...your call....

Everyone else what shall we do about Mortus if she slips away? I suggest letting the watch search for her and put her into jail.

In order for the players to interact it needs to be desirable for the characters to interact.   Kluas' sudden change in attitude made it undesirable for Mortus to interact with him. 

Though please don't let me effect your high horse, I'm sure the view is mighty fine from all the way up there.

Fuck it. Let Mortus run off and do nothing helpful if that's what she wants. She's not helpful even when she is with the party, and is in fact something of a hindrance. Let her run off, and then we can get to the task of actually progressing the story.

Fine by me. I'm more concerned with the skinchanger.

Seriously though, I am really interested in the plot. It seems to be quite a web.

I thought it was being on the second level and falling to the ground that was the problem in that instance.   After all the entire party got out through a window in two or three combat rounds [which is only about 30 seconds] after we killed what-is-she-called.

It was a ground floor window.

You'd just randomly decided to argue about it.

That is very possible.   I don't remember anybody trying to climb out a ground floor window other than the one in the bret's house ages ago though and that was six people trying to get through a small window.   I'm sure it made sense at the time.

I have an idea how we can get more information out of Brandt.

When the Marshalls decide that he should be arrested we will arrest him...but before the watch breaks down his office door ...or wherever he is hiding Klaus will try to help him to escape....get there before the watch and tell him that the watch is about to arrest him ...tell him that Klaus is a friend of his Sister and lived for a while in Wittgenstein Castle until some witch hunter band barged in there and killed his sister and they are now after him...that he has to flee with Klaus now...on the flight Klaus tries to get information about the rest of the cult and will lead Brandt to his "hideout" where Admund and some other watchmen already wait for the two.

By the way are pistols wheellock or flink lock?

I don't think match lock pistols were a thing but they might be in the WFB world?
