An Unexpected Conversation

[Executor...]

'Yes, Blazejudicator?'

[While I do appreciate being able to fuel my flames of envy, thanks to your weird form of charm, do you really need them to pinch your cheeks this hard?]

'Technically, I don't need this at all. This is so they can get some catharsis out of this.'

[Uh huh...oh, speaking of catharsis, where's Kit and Rodenia at?]

'Oh, they were originally going to back to Pearl Scale for a quiet evening of work and then rest...'

[Were?]

'But then, Grandauntie remembered that the candy store in Pearl Scale that Kit and Rodenia work at, offers a rarely used catering service for parties, and proceeded to drop a fat stack of cash to have them come over and provide desserts for everybody. She even had escorts prepared to fly them over.'

[Wow...the rich and powerful really do think differently.]

'I sincerely think Grand Aunt Zhen Xun Tian is just that level of a crazy on the regular.'
