“Hey, betcha’ ten bucks she goes back on the deal!” Talbot laughs, prompting the rest of the circle including the raccoon on his shoulder to sigh knowingly.
“What?” He asks, clearly out of the loop, “We dunno what she’s planning! It’s still up in the air, guys!”
“Speaking of up in the air,” Art remarks as he turns towards the skeleton mage currently trying to creep away, “That guy was chucking quite a few <span class="mu-r">FIREBALLS</span> at us–you think he’s focused enough to use some other spells now too?”

“Well you’re not <span class="mu-i">entirely</span> incorrect, no,” Teevor stammers, clearly losing the audience, “But do my reasons have to be mutually exclusive? Hmm?”
“Mooshoo Lee or not,” Talbot replies as Lil’ Stanley backs him up with a menacing growl, “You’re not runnin’ off without our say-so, dork.”
“Stanley?” Sybil asks, turning to you for a decision. Well if you <span class="mu-i">have</span> to make <span class="mu-i">another</span> one…
