To the worthy

[Ookalf]

Eh, a bit closer to the latter, I guess. You see, that magic plaque over there has a way to kinda give out "roles" in the kingdom to people, based on their personality and stuff... Wanna try it?

[AmbushCat]

Nah, but thanks anyway. I stumbled across that thing on one of my prowls, gave it a test, and was dissatisfied with the results.

[Ookalf]

Really? What did you end up with?

[AmbushCat]

*Circe's arm sinks further in, stopping at the elbow. Ambush's fur takes on a greenish tint, and she switches over to her Amber voice.*

The dragon that kidnaps the princess, retreats to a hidden lair, and wipes out any knights stupid enough to challenge it.

[Ookalf]

...OK, I don't think I want that. And can you let go of my arm, please? *Circe tries to shake Ambush off.*

[Kether]

The Vizier shrugs. "I expected that, which is why I asked how you liked it rather than that. I can guarantee you it pays a lot better."

The girl nods, "then where to Ma'am?"

[AmbushCat]

...OK, I don't think I want that. And can you let go of my arm, please? *Circe tries to shake Ambush off.*

...You know, you're a real killjoy no matter what form you're in.

*Ambush jumps away, freeing Circe's arm.*

[Ookalf]

...You know, you're a real killjoy no matter what form you're in.

*Ambush jumps away, freeing Circe's arm.*

Well, what'd you expect me to say? "Please, turn into a big ol' dragon and kidnap me! That'd be so much fun!" ...I mean, really.

[AmbushCat]

*fur regains its normal shade* Please. I wouldn't turn into a big ol' dragon that would kidnap you.

[Ookalf]

Really? So were you gonna do?

[Whatevr89532]

Jaylene puts a finger on her chin for a second or two, thinking. "Well, I came here with a knight, so we should probably head out and see if she's around. Might be a good idea to see how the princess is doing, too." She starts toward the front door.

[AmbushCat]

Really? So were you gonna do?

*Amber promptly shape-shifts into a new form, with the only difference from the picture being her gray skin. Doesn't take a genius to know that this is the form she gained from the plaque earlier.*

Why, turn into a little dragon and kidnap you, of course!

[Ookalf]

Jaylene puts a finger on her chin for a second or two, thinking. "Well, I came here with a knight, so we should probably head out and see if she's around. Might be a good idea to see how the princess is doing, too." She starts toward the front door.

*Valveta is still hanging out outside with her new squires.*

*Amber promptly shape-shifts into a new form, with the only difference from the picture being her gray skin. Doesn't take a genius to know that this is the form she gained from the plaque earlier.*

Why, turn into a little dragon and kidnap you, of course!

Oh, so that's it. ...I'm still not gonna let you kidnap me, though!

[Whatevr89532]

Before long the two of them (or at least Jaylene) come out near Valveta. "Hey! You got some..lesser knights? Squires? Nice work. I got us a librarian."

[AmbushCat]

Oh, so that's it. ...I'm still not gonna let you kidnap me, though!

*grabs Ookalf's arm* I win.
