Poof.

[Ebony]

*Facepaws Raleigh in embarrassment.* Raleigh: Well at least he wasn't the Dr. Pepper Wave Rider.

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...Always the optimist. *opens the Pepsi can and sips from it* He's not doing any actual harm to anyone, but it's still embarrassing to watch. ...He drank a potion recently just for the fun of it, and now he transforms into that whenever he consumes soda pop.

[Raleigh]

Want me to uhm... help fix that a bit?

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...I'm on the fence about that, truthfully. On the one hand, I wish he was a little less destructive. On the other hand, seeing him put a Green girl in St. Dogbert's Hospital via accidental heart attack was pretty fun.

[Raleigh]

Impressive. Let me know if you think I need to intervene then. Both of you are more than free to ask me to help after all. Also I'll make a note to increase the protections on my books against any spills or high impact super hero entrances.

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...Probably a good idea. *stretches a bit* ...Sorry that Eebon and Echo weren't here to say hello. They had things around the house that needed done.

[Raleigh]

I'll make sure to say hello to them when I get the chance then though it is a shame they weren't here.

[AmbushCat]

*Ezekiel finally jumps off Raleigh's shoulder onto Ellen's, lightly nosing her face. The sudden impact and subsequent nosing makes her flinch, but she otherwise doesn't react. She's likely used to it, more or less.*

Ellen: ...In the meantime, I can pass on your regards. *gestures at the gazebo she was in* ...Care to sit down?

[Raleigh]

Sure. *Raleigh joins Ellen and Ezekiel in the gazebo.*

Ebony: And look, no one needed to try and attack it either.
Raleigh: Wrong reality. Most people here know a gazebo isn't a monster.

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...Wouldn't be hard to make that assumption, really. I've seen tall buildings sprout legs and wander off before.

[Raleigh]

I've even seen some eat people to be honest but you'd be amazed at the amount of people who think a gazebo is some sort of monster.

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...That's as wacky as all get out.

[Raleigh]

It could be worse. They could think gongs are monsters with sonic attacks.

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...Sounds like they could be perfect candidates for "The Gong Show".

Ezekiel: Mrrr... mrrreow. (No. Too noisy.)

[Raleigh]

Heh, I've recently managed to meet a guy who not only tried to bargain with a sixth dimensional deity of information but managed to do so in such a bad way he got him and his friends bound to her service for a few hundred years. On the bright side, it let me carrying out some work I was doing while they were distracted.

I also learned that explosive runes are a far more hilarious spell than I had ever thought.
