Fellow citizens of Mayfield. If you're feeling a bit peckish I just happened to have some spare food. I couldn't possibly eat it all myself given my size. So rather than letting it spoil I'm happy to share with my neighbours... for a small service fee naturally. Of course if you'd rather eat ketchup and mayonnaise or rummage in the woods, I

If you're not interested please move along.

You know, I rather think the others might be . . . disappointed when they realize. You wouldn't want them to . . . find out too soon, would you?

Still, knowing something is an illusion doesn't stop it's power. Being aware isn't enough. You should bother someone else.

I guess, but -- Geez. You're either the world's greatest entrepreneur or a total loony. Whatever. I guess it's not like any of them need any money, either. You're just passing around useless paper.

Even here you need money to buy things. Food, clothing, anything of personal interest. I don't have a way to earn money here myself since the drones will not take me seriously, so I look for opportunities where I can.

[prodigious_mage]

Yeah, I'm gonna wait til I get my normal clothes back. . . . And how old are you, anyway?

[hugs_arent_free]

I've been one for a number of years now.

[prodigious_mage]

[hugs_arent_free]

A curse.
