The two sparring warriors calmed a bit following Turnips departure. Each looked quite abashed.
Woody: "I'm sorry"
The Admiral: "No, I'm sorry"
Woody: "I'm sorriest"
The Admiral "Ok, you are the sorriest, but I'm still really sorry"
Woody: "Friends?"
The Admiral: "Friends!"
The brave and manly former-combatants shook hands and reviewed the situation.
Woody: "Where did Turnips go?"
The Admiral: "Oh brother, weren't we trying to cheer him up?"
Woody: "I think he was kind of upset about all that sacking even though the sacking was only light to moderately sacking."
The Admiral: "I agree, he's too lawful good for his own good whereas you and I are rather more of the chaotic variety. And, a little more neutral-ish (and here he caught himself) although we are totally committed to rescuing Lady M and Johnny Sixguns, re-building the magic dingus of seven parts and restoring Livoniumtonchester to its former glory. Yes, ok so we are a little chaotic neutral-ISH. But certainly not EVIL! And, I did get a nice Hummel figurine that I was looking for - Its rated quite highly on the Bradford Exchange."
Woody: "Oh sure, but you know if you don't pay Schlamazel the Butcher back, he'll grill our &%%^%^$ that'll take more than a Hummel Figurine and a couple of enchanted gizmos."
The Admiral (putting his finger to his chin, pensively): "True, True, that means we might just have to do some more freebooting."
"Back to Kristal Stadt?" asked Woody? "All we got there was this magical porcelain horseshoe shaped thingy."
Wow! 2 in a row!
ReplyDeleteJust between us though, what Turnips is REALLY upset about is that the idea to sack the temple and the castle (plus that caravan we waylayed) was actually Hannon's!
It must be true, as I told it to Turnips myself.
Well of course, you are a Naval Gentleman and would never lie so it must have been one of Hannon's
ReplyDeleteDid we get anything off the caravan?
I saw Zimbar and Kaotic E this morning by the way - Zimbar picked up a nice +5 crossbow at costco but we all agreed to stay away from the generic potions at CVS.
