There were no harpies. There was no cereal falling from the sky. There was no sign of peas and clover being in any kind of cabinet anywhere ( Read more... )

Boo was giving Minsc a look soon after they got there, causing Minsc to sigh and roll his eyes.

"Okay, okay," he said. "I get it, I get it. Not only do you get to sew, but now they're serving your new favourite food, too. I won't try to convince you not to come anymore, Boo."

It should also be noted that Boo was giving Minsc that look from amid a sea of hearts, stars and horseshoes, clovers and blue moons. Pots of gold and rainbows, and a red balloon.

Lindsay was... kind of staring. Not exactly obvious if it was an Minsc or the furry thing sitting in the bowl of lucky charms though.

"Is... that a hamster?"

Re: Mingling and Refreshments berserkerminsc March 18 2009, 15:53:33 UTC

"Why, yes!" Minsc announced proudly, squaring his shoulders. "It is! But not just any hamster, you know...." He trailed off, leaving the opening to wow the pretty lady even more...well, open.

Re: Mingling and Refreshments memberslonely March 18 2009, 15:55:41 UTC

"Is it also housebroken?" she asked hopefully.

Re: Mingling and Refreshments berserkerminsc March 18 2009, 15:56:26 UTC

Minsc's shoulders fell. That was not the response he had anticipated.

"Of course he's housebroken!"

Re: Mingling and Refreshments memberslonely March 18 2009, 16:03:28 UTC

"Well that's good because he's sitting in a bowl of food," Lindsay replied though she doubtfully thought anyone would eat the cereal after a hamster was in it. "How does one train a hamster to eat Lucky charms anyway?"

Re: Mingling and Refreshments berserkerminsc March 18 2009, 16:44:13 UTC

"I think he just sort of picked it up," Minsc said, arching a eyebrow at the woman. "You know, when it was falling from the sky yesterday."

He was, of course, in no way, really suggesting that a very clean hamsters sitting in the middle of the bowl wasn't the only thing wrong with the bowl of Lucky Charms.

Besides, anyone who ever drank from any punch bowl at any school event had done so probably with at least a little flavour of Boo added.

Re: Mingling and Refreshments memberslonely March 18 2009, 16:45:26 UTC

"And then getting housebroken?" she asked. "How did you manage that?"

Re: Mingling and Refreshments berserkerminsc March 18 2009, 17:13:12 UTC

"He rather came that way," Minsc said, brusquely bristling with the insult to his hamsters hygene habits. "He is a giant miniature space hamster, you know. I should say they take care of things like that rather early as do we."

"Assuming, my lady, that you are housebroken?"

Hey. Minsc had learned to never assume such things with some people.

Re: Mingling and Refreshments memberslonely March 18 2009, 17:40:11 UTC

He did not just ask that.

"What? Of course I'm... Why wouldn't you think I'm... Okay, that's just nuts. Yes, I'm housebroken!"

Which isn't exactly how she wanted to put it but...

Re: Mingling and Refreshments berserkerminsc March 18 2009, 17:54:18 UTC

"I am just saying," Minsc held out his hands in defense. "Me asking you that question is no different than you asking that question of Boo. He is not your average hamster, my lady."

Re: Mingling and Refreshments memberslonely March 18 2009, 18:03:20 UTC

"He looks like an average hamster..."

Re: Mingling and Refreshments berserkerminsc March 18 2009, 18:08:46 UTC

"And looks can be deceiving, my lady."

Sometimes. After all, if they were talking about Minsc, you basically did get exactly what you were looking at.

Re: Mingling and Refreshments memberslonely March 18 2009, 18:11:41 UTC

Yeah. Okay. Whatever.

"Uh-huh. And where did you find this... giant-miniature thing?"

Re: Mingling and Refreshments berserkerminsc March 18 2009, 18:27:05 UTC

"In a bar!" Minsc said, happily oblivious to the fact that this location did not likely help his case. "In...Baldur's Gate, I think it was. It is hard to remember, exactly, as I have been in many taverns all over Faerûn."

Re: Mingling and Refreshments memberslonely March 18 2009, 18:33:22 UTC

"Yeeeeeeah," Lindsay said raising her eyebrows. "I bet you have. And your hamster there was drinking with everyone else?"
