“Sorry, I don’t understand your answer. We’re asking you to nominate one...” Natalie struggles.
“Any combination of the four is fine. Judges like Gordon Sr., you know what I mean?” You respond casually.
“The genocidal dictator…?” Natalie is in shock.
“Yeah, that one.” You give her a thumbs up.
“A-All right, sir. If you say so…!” Natalie is worried as she walks up to the front of the limousine, she’s getting the copilot seat. “Is he even alive…?” The assistant mutters to herself.
“What did she ask?” Amelia – who is inside the limousine with the others— wonders.
“Something about the judges for the competition, I told her she should bring all of them.” You shrug.
“Oh, you mean like Constance?” Amelia is a little confused.
“Yeah, exactly!” Why didn’t you mention Volleyball head first? Guess you were distracted by imagining Gio’s puffy hair…
“OK!” Amelia is excited to see the mummy again!
The tires start twirling on the cold roadway to bring you all to the battlefield... until they don’t. You’re asked to leave the limousine for another because Gerard demanded no outside interference before the duel begins, only those involved in the duel can discuss strategies – a demand that occurred to him just now like the idiot he is. Natalie assures the others they will have VIP access and seats for the event. With some encouraging words from the trio (except Odetta’s, who felt a tad backhanded), you’re escorted to a new limousine. As your assistant, Natalie will stay with you, albeit in the front, blocked by a tinted safety glass for privacy’s sake. What a waste of resources to use two luxury vehicles on a whim... but that’s the Ka-Shing way, and this shows he’s actually involved.
