You can’t lie to those puppy dog eyes! Fishing out the last dose of <span class="mu-b">DR. STAN’S CURE-ALL (PATENT PENDING)</span> from your pocket, you dangle it in front of Syb’s pale face and shake it a bit. Nope, you answer, Doc left you one to use as you see fit! Pretty neat, huh?
“No,” Sybil replies, face scrunched up in disapproval, “it’s not. What if an enemy steals it?”
Then you’ll steal, uh… you’ll steal their <span class="mu-i">life!</span> What’s she worried about, anyways? It’s probably grow moss in your <span class="mu-b">INVENTORY</span> like the rest of the crap you pick up!
“I’m not sure…” She shrugs as she stares into the blue goo drifting around the tube like a lava lamp. “Part of me thinks you should give it to someone on the team, but who can say how they’ll react to injecting <span class="mu-i">that</span> into their veins?”
Good point, but hey–<span class="mu-r">STANLEY’S</span> been pretty well-behaved so far! What’s the worst that can happen-
Your argument is swiftly beheaded by the sound of something big, loud, and expensive crashing to the floor in your bathroom followed by the skittering of tiny claws along the linoleum. Averting your eyes from Syb’s ‘<span class="mu-i">told-ya-so</span>’ look, you stuff the <span class="mu-b">SERUM</span> safely back into your pocket next to your <span class="mu-g">ROCKET LAUNCHER.</span> If you <span class="mu-i">were</span> gonna give it to someone, you segue, who should you give it to?
“Not to me, thank you–I can only imagine what that magical contamination would do to my abilities… I wouldn’t give it to Talbot either–I’m still not quite sure how that <span class="mu-b">PEARL</span> returned him to his, um… ‘<span class="mu-i">human</span>’ form, but a dose of <span class="mu-b">MAGICAL BONE MARROW</span> would probably only complicate things.”
“Da’ dope’s strong enough already–if it were me pullin’ da’ strings, I’d save it for someone more uh… <span class="mu-i">mundane</span>.”
“Ly’s right,” The Goth nods with a sheepish grin. “It would give them a boost while also leaving them, erm, <span class="mu-i">manageable</span> in case <span class="mu-r">THE LICH</span> tries anything.”
There’s also the chance of selling it to a drug company once this whole <span class="mu-r">SKELETON THING</span> blows over, but these dopes don’t have to know that! Heh heh heh!
“Let’s also try to work on <span class="mu-i">not</span> giving away our schemes with self-narration and villainous laughter, shall we?” Syb asks in a pointed tone. D’oh!
“By all means, <span class="mu-i">work</span>...” Ly groans. “Been tryin’ since <span class="mu-b">PART 1…</span>”
