*climbs up onto the counter and begins rummaging through the cupboards, knocking over a salt shaker*

Ruby...? What are you doing?

[rubygamgee]

I need to feed my princess.

I found her.

*nods*

I don't know what you feed a princess. But. Sugar and spice and everything nice is what she's made of...SO. I'm giving her some of that. *holds out pepper grinder* is this sugar or spice?

[asphodel_bb]

*takes pepper grinder* That's pepper. You'd make your princess sneeze if you fed her that.

Where'd you find the princess? FIll me in...

[rubygamgee]

In the forest. She's got bright hair and she sings.

She's not very big for a human. So I need to feed her.

Gimme a spice. I have sugar. *holds up some salt*

[asphodel_bb]

And that's salt. the sugar is in this canister. now spices......
I've got cinnamon, nutmeg, caraway seeds...

ALthough some other food might be good for her too. I have some more of those chocolate chip cookies...

[rubygamgee]

*considers very carefully*

...I think my princess would like cookies. Yes. Pack a lot of them. *nods*

[asphodel_bb]

*packs cookies*
And some lemonade as well?

When do I get to meet this princess?

[rubygamgee]

Yes! She might be thirsty. *hops from foot to foot*

You can meet her today. But she's mine. So you can't have her.

[asphodel_bb]

Don't worry, I promise I won't steal her. Have her stop by. I'll fill you both up with good food. *smiles*

[rubygamgee]

You don't wanna come meet her? She says she wants to stay in the woods so I can't bring her yet. But I'm working on it. *fiddles with a spoon and slips it into her pocket*

[asphodel_bb]

I'll come meet your princess, and help you feed her, if you give me back my spoon, and whatever else you've taken. Deal?

[rubygamgee]

...*hands back the spoon, one jewelry case and one of Asphodel's rings*

Let's go! *grabs Asphodel's hand and tugs*

[asphodel_bb]

My, you're impatient. Okay, I'm coming. *follows along behind Ruby*

[rubygamgee]

*pulls Asphodel into a clearing*

Princess! Princess! I have food! And Asphodel! She's really nice.

*stops and looks around*

She was here when I left and she said she wasn't gonna leave...

;_; *looks crushed*

[asphodel_bb]

Oh, Don't cry! I'm sure she'll show up soon. MAybe she wanted to explore a bit...
