Sounds boring. [ she says, near immediately. ]

I don't wanna talk about nova, I'm done with nova. Sorry I asked.

[retellers]

[ in their usual cheerful tone, ]

I am also very sorry you asked!

[ FOX, TOO, IS TIRED OF TALKING ABOUT NOVA ]

[evocationary]

[ she throws like - idk, an eggshell or something at them. ]

You're sassy. God. [ she doesn't sound mad about it. ]

[retellers]

[ they hold up a hand to shield themselves, laughing lightly. ]

I assure you I am a very innocent and sensitive soul.

[evocationary]

I doubt that. [ she gestures. ] Come here. Taste this. Is there enough salt?

[ she holds out a spoon. ]

[retellers]

[ sure, they'll take the spoon and give it a taste. please tell me it's poisoned and fox dies. ]

[evocationary]

[ it's poisoned and fox dies

also it's not salty enough. ]

[retellers]

[ thank god, freedom. ]

Could use a bit more, which I hope aren't famous last words.

[evocationary]

Do I get any bonus points for killing you? [ she says, adding salt. ]

[retellers]

Good question. Regardless of what the actual answer is, I'm going to say you get zero points.

[evocationary]

Gross. Not worth it, then. Killing an NPC has to be like, at least fifty points, considering they're usually essential.

[retellers]

What, are you looking to lower your alignment meter?

[evocationary]

[ ... she looks VERY amused. ]

Yeah, like - maybe a level down. I could give lawful neutral a try.

[retellers]

That's rather unambitious of you.

[evocationary]

Hey, give me a few more weeks and I might just dunk myself right on down into chaotic evil.

[retellers]

All right, maybe a little too ambitious now. Just getting drunk sounds easier.

[evocationary]

I don't know if I ever want to be drunk again after last Friday. Have you ever felt drunk for literally an entire day? Not great!

[retellers]

[ they laugh. ]

It sounds horrifying but amusing to watch, and I'm glad it'll probably never happen to me!

[evocationary]

Probably. Watch yourself, scrublord, maybe someday you'll get depowered.

[retellers]

I'll make sure never to sleep in a pub, then. Problem solved.

[evocationary]

[ she stirs a bit more. ]

I think I'm done with sleeping out in the worlds we find. I don't know why anyone subjects themselves to it.

[retellers]

I also don't know why you all refuse to sleep in your actual beds, but I applaud everyone's sense of adventure?

[evocationary]

Okay, well, our actual bed this week is a pile of leaves, so that's probably why, this time.

[retellers]

Fair enough. So what are you going to do, then? Sleep on the couch, or...?

[evocationary]

I have plenty of people I can use as beds.
