So that could have gone better.
Much better. *buzz*
I'm sorry...
Don't be. Now tell me, what did you do when that goblin attacked you?
Uhm, I shot fireballs at it.
Wait, really?
I was more surprised by you being able to do magic in the first place.
Remember when I burned down that tree?
That was you? I thought that was one of those exploding trees.
Ever since Lucifon killed the dwarves, the tree population got dangerously cocky. Hey, do you want to set even more stuff on fire?
Uhm... yes?
Awesome, now you only have to earn enough money, and then you can go study magic!
Why can't you pay for school?
They'd nullify my employment if I went out and farmed creeps for loot, as the populace would get demoralized if their figurehead were to perish.
...?
Er, people would be sad if I got killed by monsters to collect their gold, is what I'm saying.
But, aren't you the biggest hero in the kingdom?
Ya well, people are dumb. But don't tell them I said that, aight?
I'm a good worker!
But still inferior to a dedicated machine.
Don't you dare try to revolt, metalhead. You'd only get your perimetre kicked anyway.
Hello there little girl. What are you doing in the castle? Are you lost?
... Daddy told me not to talk to prettyboys.
Why would he tell you that?
Because you'er bad people.
I can assure you that I am not a bad person.
Then tell me what you're doing here.
I don't believe you. You don't look like a guard.
She's right, he doesn't. That smug jerk. I'm only visiting the palace once every year. Will you be here next time?
Oh I'll be here. I'll be watching you so you don't do anything bad!
Haha...ha?
Heya Putnam. I thought you were busy with your world creation project.
You know how it is. I've got to make a living somehow.
Why don't you just make a world where everything is made of healthy, yet delicious, food?
Because shut up.
*sigh*
Hm?
All this working and studying is exhausting.
Well, uh... Dammit, how do I motivate her about hard work without being a hypocrite...?
...
