*So I seriously spent five minutes trying to figure out whether I cross my arms with my left over my right and came to the conclusion it depended on how you looked at it; in the mirror I put my right arm over but for me I put my left arm over and you have completely ruined me with this!!!*

LOL, same! I do actually put right over left, but I think that’s because I’m right-handed. I think left-handed people would do it the opposite way, though I have no evidence to support my theory XD

I just about died reading Chantara talking to the goose LOL!

LOL, I spent most of the time thinking: ‘If someone understands her accidentally, her disguise is absolutely shattered.’

And guess what? XD Oh, this is going to be hilarious!

Aaaand then there was a loud squawk as the delicate, kinda cute lady hurled the ‘goose’ across the room. This was so not how he imagined his day

That was hilarious! XD

Thanks!  Yes, Karayan is about 80% sass by volume.  He’s also several hundred years old and has the accompanying wisdom and he’s seen it all so by this point he’s just kinda done with all the silly mortal shenanigans.

Honestly, I just love that about him XD I find it kinda hard to see him as a villain. All he wants is to be left alone by the annoying mortals and eat cookies. Honestly, I shouldn’t relate to a villain that much XD

And he’s so sassy XD He’d get along with Liorah. *Pictures those two together. It’s even worse than Meira and Liorah (Who is 50% sass and 50% pure chaos.) The amounts of sass are overwhelming.* NOPE! Never mind, I take that back!

Oh, goodness, Chantara is not having her best day XD

“Yes, the process of elimination is always a useful tool,” Karayan said. He wound the bandage around my fingers deftly. I could tell he’d done this often.  “We now know not to tell the goose we want it dead when trying to coax it.”

I instinctively recoiled. He’d understood me. He spoke Kezbe. I tried to remember what I’d said. My remarks were a sharp contrast to my persona.

I gave a short, tight laugh, trying to laugh it off, but my heart was throbbing in my throat. I had an unreasonable urge to bang my head against the wall in some sort of futile attempt to knock some sense into myself. I had never seen anyone this stupid. Even the apprentices who could barely tell which part of their knives was sharp wouldn’t have done something that dumb.

“You understand Kezbe,” I observed in that language, trying not to show him how startled I was. He’d caught me off guard. I couldn’t let that happen.

“Not many people know our tongue,” I continued. I purposely spoke fast, to figure out how fluent he was. If he could understand me now, he spoke it very well.

I spun away to search for that eternally cursed goose. My intentions to rip its throat out were stronger than ever.

It had vanished, and it had not gone past us.

“Where–” I started, then stopped.

The castle had said the goose had two (or three, I don’t remember XD) powers. And I’d just narrowed down my options for one of them. It was either invisibility or teleportation. Now I just had to figure out which.
