They’ve got you right where they want you, it would seem… well, <span class="mu-i">almost</span> all of you! Making a show of pondering Sixface’s offer, your hand silently slips into your robe’s pocket like a snake stalking a gopher!
“At a loss for words, are we?” Chides the shapechanger with a dismissive shake of her Mox head, “Tell you what: you can share them with those lovely ladies orbiting you… if you’re not too busy whimpering and screaming, that is.”
“Aye,” Nods the Green-eyed Mzz’goe’virr with a menacing grin, “We’ll pass ‘em on…”
“Every little peep!” Giggles her sister as she prods your side with her blade!
You don’t react, of course–you’re too busy finding the rim of that magic item you pilfered from Trimbault! All of that sleight-of-hand practice in your magician days seems to have paid off, too–by the time your hand plunges into the bag your captors are none the wiser!
There is… <span class="mu-i">one</span> thing, you begin in a low, methodical tone. And you want to share it with them <span class="mu-i">AND</span> The Big Cheese…
Your captors shoot each other a sidelong glance. Lotsa eyes!
“... What’s a ‘Big Cheese’?”
“Rolo’s pretty big…”
“Oh?” Croons Sixface as she lingers in the doorway with a wry grin, “And what might that be, dear?”
Errr, hold on a sec, you stammer as your hand breaks free of something sticky deep within the bag’s depths, it’s, uh…
The Mox’s brow furrows. “Oi. Check his hands, you morons.”
No time to waste! Feeling your fingers close around something slimy and serpentine, you yank your prize free from your pocket and raise it aloft as it shrieks and squirms like a newborn lamprey!
GUESS WHAT <span class="mu-i">THIS</span> IS, CHUCKLEFUCKS!
“What the HELLS!?” Sputters Biita!
“That’s what I was gonna say!” Viitzi shouts!
“Earthmother’s Tears…” Mutters the Molegg Priestess as she backs into the corner!
“Right, have fun with that.” Not waiting to see what brand of chaos you’re about to unleash, Sixface slams the Chapel doors shut just as you feel your prize leap from your hand like a slime-coated hamster!
