It is terrible, Miss Rosella. To use innocent people in such a way-- And the flyers truly make it all the more so. These 'deities' have no right to play with peoples' lives in such a way...

[tainted_loyalty]

[a sigh, a cough, and the anger melts back into mild-mannered Riff]

...I admit, after all of this, I am looking forward to your dinner, Miss Rosella. My lord informed me about it. Thank you very kindly for the invitation.

[primrosella]

One grows to expect it after a while, I'm afraid. But I daresay I'll never get used to it, or stop being furious about it, either.

But of course, we'll be glad to have you, Riff. What do you like best to eat? I'll do my best to make sure we have some for you.

[tainted_loyalty]

I agree completely.

[...]

Ah- Anything Miss Rosella makes will be wonderful, thank you.

[primrosella]

[Topic diversion, go!]

You're certainly welcome to some of my pumpkin pie. It's going to be the best dessert there, you know.

[tainted_loyalty]

[He chuckles.]

I'm afraid I may have to contradict you there, Miss Rosella, though I'm sure it will be a lovely pie.

[primrosella]

Oh, you don't think I'm going to win?

[tainted_loyalty]

My lord seems to have his heart set on winning, I'm afraid.

[which, by default, means Cain will win, apparently. :|b ]

[primrosella]

Does he really? Goodness, I wonder what could be making him so eager about it all. I never would've guessed he had such interest in pies.

[tainted_loyalty]

Ah, well--[cough cough] --he can be competitive. And I think Miss Merry has gotten quite into the spirit of it as well.

[primrosella]

Has she? Well, good, then at least things are certain to be interesting. It's a bit of a daunting prospect, taking on all three of you at once, but I think I'm stubborn enough to manage it.

[tainted_loyalty]

I wish you luck, regardless. [coughcoughcough]

[primrosella]

[That is a suspicious cough you've developed, Riff.]

Thank you very much, Riff, I do appreciate it. And however it turns out, at least there'll be plenty of good food for everyone, and that's the most important thing, isn't it?

[tainted_loyalty]

[Don't mind him. He's just... gonna pretend it's a cold. :| ]

Of course, Miss Rosella. I look forward to it. It is good to have things to look forward to in this sort of place.

[primrosella]

[ Yeah, sure it is. >> ]

It really is. And it's a fine time of year for it, too, with this and Christmas and birthdays...

[tainted_loyalty]

Yes, certainly, Miss Rosella. It's a nice holiday, I think, though I'd never heard of it, I'm afraid. But even here, there are things to give thanks for, and it is good to appreciate that.
