If any of the new residents are in need of food, you are more than welcome to stop by the bakery for some fresh baked goods, though I cannot promise that they will be ready right away. I was not expecting such a large influx of guests.

[And Regal is in the bakery, working as quickly as he can to make as much food as he can. He's not even sure

Regaaaal! Mah main village man! Hey, just the guy I was looking for. Remember me?

[lezareno_prez]

... I'm afraid not. Do refresh my memory.

[meowzy_chan]

Oh yeah, that's right. The Malnosso wiped your memory. I was here exactly one year ago. I acted as your therapist and we made a lot of progress there. You told me all about the traumatic experience of killing your girlfriend with your own hands.

[lezareno_prez]

My... therapist. Forgive me if I question your words, but I highly doubt that I would confide such things in a stranger. Can you tell me why the Malnosso brought you here in the first place?

[meowzy_chan]

I don't know. They never told me. But hey, I am your therapist. Last time, you were lying on a couch and you were pouring your soul out. I made notes, see?

[She holds up a notepad. It has a doodle of Regal, fishing on a scribbly boat which is supposed to be a yacht, wearing his usual handcuffs and a bow on his head.]

[lezareno_prez]

[What. Just... what.]

[meowzy_chan]

Ayup. And then you caved and finally admitted you have a fetish for bondage. It was a real relief for you. We made such wonderful progress, but then the Malnosso had to make you all forget.

[lezareno_prez]

I can't say I am complaining about forgetting all of that-- assuming that what you say is true.

[meowzy_chan]

It is. And as your therapist, I have to say, it's good to see you in a healthy relationship. Gelda's a very lucky woman.

[lezareno_prez]

And I am a very lucky man to have someone as kind and understanding as her.

But you mentioned the Malnosso... is this another experiment?

[meowzy_chan]

Nah. Some idiot pressed the wrong button. I'll bet it's Jingleheimer.

[lezareno_prez]

Who?

[meowzy_chan]

You know! 'Cause of the song!

[Sings]
John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt!~
Hiiis name is my name too!~
Whenever we go out, the people always shout...
John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt!~

[lezareno_prez]

An interesting song, to be sure, but not one from my world. I had never heard of it before you so kindly sang it for me. Is there a particular meaning behind it?

[meowzy_chan]

It drives people nuts, because you can sing it in an endless loop.

Hey, hey, wanna hear some juicy Malnosso gossip?

[lezareno_prez]

That depends on your definition of the words "juicy" and "gossip." Given your previous statements, I'm almost afraid to ask what you have in mind.
