Nineteen: In Which Klaus Comes Back In the Midst of Turmoil... Like Always

[myblimpisbigger]

[Hey, Mayfield! Guess who's no longer droned? This guy! Now, can you guess who is not at all pleased about suddenly having lost all of his hard-won regains? This guy again! And finally, can you guess who's looking at a certain letter while eating his morning waffles, and debating what the hell he should do about it?

If you guessed half the people

phone of course she might get cooties from action

[warriorscoffee]

Are you actually going to pass this up?

totally understandable, cooties are ew

[myblimpisbigger]

I never said that. But knowing with certainty whether I will actually be given what I am being offered will factor greatly in to my decision either way.

[warriorscoffee]

I knew it. You can't pass it up.

[myblimpisbigger]

You know, you hardly have the right to berate me for a natural predilection towards bloodshed. You're a warrior princess, for goodness sake.

[warriorscoffee]

I wasn't berating you. But it's pretty damn funny you think I was.

And I can control myself! When I want to.

[myblimpisbigger]

Ah. But do you ever want to? That is the important part.

[warriorscoffee]

You know where I'm from.

[myblimpisbigger]

[Just. Sigh.]

You place far too little value on self-control. Your mother would not be pleased.

[warriorscoffee]

Don't talk about her.

[myblimpisbigger]

Oh? Why not? She's my wife as much as she is your mother.

[This is the first time they've spoken frankly about this, isn't it. Well! Now is as good a time as any.]

[warriorscoffee]

I knew it. The Baron and Chump are the same person, aren't they? [She barely skips a beat, before a little smile crosses her face. ]

Gilgamesh was looking good the last time I saw him.

[myblimpisbigger]

[...Oh now that is not fair, Zeetha.]

And when was the last time you saw him?

[warriorscoffee]

Right before I arrived here. We had some quality time together! Smart boy, he seemed pretty scared of me!

[myblimpisbigger]

Naturally. I told him that you were likely only out of Skifander because you had been sent to kill him. Though I would think that would inspire in him more incredulity than fear.

[warriorscoffee]

If that's why I was out, I would have killed him a while ago, instead of playing circus.

[Agatha has discovered the joys of listening to people's conversations on the phone.

Agatha has now also discovered the dark side to this. ....and she's only now been able to get her mouth to work properly]

He's YOUR father too!
