...It's been a few days now. Since that useless dormouse said anything, I mean. The way that stupid thing was talking, it sounded like it's an event that can change who we are, so it's probably very dangerous. It's likely to happen any day now, so we should prepare, if we can.

Who?

What are you talking about, Mrs. Fakerina?

[miserablefate]

You know who I mean! My prince!

And that is not my name.

[strawberrium]

You mean than boy you always hang around with?

Oh my, I'm sorry! I forgot you're still unmarried, Miss Fakerina.

[miserablefate]

Yes. Him. My prince.

I'm not a girl, so stop that!

[tokenloli]

Mute?

[miserablefate]

Err. That's...not his proper name. There's something wrong today that's not letting me call him...what he should be called. He's my prince.

[miserablefate]

No. In fact, I'm finding I especially dislike him today.

[miserablefate]

That stupid treacle-eating rat knows a lot more about this place than it lets on, and instead of being helpful in any way, it dangles vague hints in front of us.

Mute?

...What's wrong with you, is the better question, Mrs. Fa-

You know, I really can't even remember what made that nickname so funny.

[miserablefate]

There's nothing wrong with me, Jerk! There's something not letting me call Mute M U T E him by his name!

Good. I'll do myself a favor then and try not to remind you.

[madeinoblivion]

Have you forgotten it?

[miserablefate]

No, of course not. I know exactly what it is. I know what it is, there's just something preventing me from saying it correctly.

[inblackfeathers]

Is the Failure Knight having trouble today?

[miserablefate]

Shut up. I'm sure you're having similar difficulties today.

[inblackfeathers]

It's not something terribly impeding.
