Rat Queens #6 came out today!

[thebigspoon]

Woohoo! Back in business!

I'll admit I'm a little worried...things are gonna get dark I bet, but so long as we stick together we'll be OK right?

...right?

And stop teasing me about the mushroom men! Don't knock it if you haven't tried it!

[lets_get_stabby]

Woah...those mushroom people are strong.

[thebigspoon]

Ohmigosh!

[Goes very still, then pulls a face trying to confirm this isn't a mirror image spell or something]

Well I heard about stuff like this happening but I didn't expect it to happen so soon!

[lets_get_stabby]

[Starts to pull the same face but changes once she sees herself doing the same.]

Freaky! But hey, different worlds right? Or are those mushroom people really potent after all?

[thebigspoon]

Maybe a little of both.

[A thoughtful look]

...yep I am every bit as cute as people say I am.

[lets_get_stabby]

We are hot aren't we?

Seen any of the other gals around?

[thebigspoon]

[Sighs and droops]

Not yet...but things are just getting started. I'm sure they can't be too far behind right? They've never let us get too far ahead even when we're hunting for traps and stuff.

Besides...think of all the fun we could have in some of these other worlds! I found one where they actually treat you like celebrities for...well doing everything we like to do. Drinking and fighting and sexing and fun. And instead of treating us like a headache they'd cheer us on!

[shedevilwithsword]

You made a very good point against your mun.

[thebigspoon]

Right? I mean of all the drugs I could be scarfing at least mushrooms are natural!

...ok well these were magical but I stand firm in my choice.

[shedevilwithsword]

Just keep away from weapons if you begin hallucinating.

[thebigspoon]

Aw no worries! I've never hurt anyone who didn't have it coming. Usually just property damage.

[shedevilwithsword]

I may be far more worried about you hurting yourself. But it is good to know that you can differentiate between a friend and a foe.

[thebigspoon]

Heh, if there's one thing I never forget it's who my friends are.

Especially my girls. The Rat Queens are the best friends I've ever had! I'd do anything for anyone one of them...and I usually already have.

[shedevilwithsword]

A good friend then. They are very lucky.

[thebigspoon]

You got that right Miss...uh...

Name?

[shedevilwithsword]

I am Red Sonja...yours?

[thebigspoon]

Betty! Pleased to meetcha!

[shedevilwithsword]

It's nice to meet you as well. So then, are you one of the Little People by any chance?

[thebigspoon]

Well I am a little person yeah. A smidgen We're like half lings I guess but different.

[shedevilwithsword]

So then you are not a fairy?

[thebigspoon]

Pfft, oh gosh no. Cute little things though aren't they? And it's not canon yet in my world but I bet they make some great drugs!

[shedevilwithsword]

Hm...perhaps, though I'm not sure if I would fully trust anything they offer.

[thebigspoon]

Hmm, I guess you've got a point. But I do love tricks so maybe it would be fun!

If nothing else it's something to learn.

[shedevilwithsword]

Perhaps it would be, yes. And while it is always good to use any chance to learn, it is also good to practice caution as well.

[From the stories that she has been told of them, fairies could be particularly nasty if they felt like it.]

[thebigspoon]

But when caution is too boring and things get sticky?

Then luck and quick thinking.

And if that fails? Durability is a plus.

[shedevilwithsword]

Once again, you are true. Still, I would much rather not be turned into an animal of some sort.

Not all of the luck, skills or durability shall help you out then.

[thebigspoon]

Ooo!

But if you were an animal, what kind would you be?

[shedevilwithsword]

If I had the choice, either a horse or bear...though personally I prefer being a human.

What of you?

[thebigspoon]

ooo I can totally see it. Those strong legs, those deep eyes! You are totally a horsebear. Maybe like a centaur with a bear's top?

[chuckles]

Well my friend says I'm like a little blond squirrel, which I guess would be fun but I think I'd rather fly like a bird. Maybe a magpie since they like shiny things the way I do.

[shedevilwithsword]

You have quite the imagination, small one.

[Her lips quirk up in a smile.]

I could imagine both, so why not a flying squirrel...with bird wings?

[thebigspoon]

[Squeal of delight]

Yes yes yes! all the fun of flying like a bird but I get to keep my fingers!

[Wiggles her fingers at Sonja]

I have the most fun with these fingers.

[shedevilwithsword]

Is that so? And what is it that you use your fingers for?

[thebigspoon]

Filching usually.

But loving whenever I get the chance.

[Purrs suggestively]

[shedevilwithsword]

A thief who claims to own an experienced pair of hands then?

[thebigspoon]

You got that right!

And congratulations on getting into The Hunger Games! I just saw you were in! Way to go!

[shedevilwithsword]

And well informed, I see. Tell me, how did you know?

[thebigspoon]

Hee hee hee~ I'm a sneaky girl.

I'm also sharing a headspace with The Viking girl you spoke to before, and four other characters who are already in the games. None in your District sadly but you'll get to know them if you want to know them.

[shedevilwithsword]

I can tell, if i am not careful then you may just run off with my very loins.

Thou this certainly is quite the small world, is it not? I must say that I am honestly surprised.

[thebigspoon]

HaHA! Well maybe, but it'd be more fun if you were in em~

Don'tcha love surprises? My Mun was particularly pleased to see you got in. The next arena is starting soon too!

May the odds be ever in your favor or whatever.

[shedevilwithsword]

So that you may use those skilled hands that you boasted, to undress me?

[A slim, suggestive eyebrow raised itself.]

Excellent, a new battle will start soon then, but will it be good or bad? Either way, the odds are always in everyone's favor.

[thebigspoon]

Exactly!

The way I see it there three surefire ways to get to know someone.

1. Steal their stuff.

2. Fight em.

3. Sex.

And out of the three I prefer one and three.

And out of those two I prefer the one that involves kissing and snuggles afterward.

[shedevilwithsword]

Personally I prefer two and three myself...with a bit of a leaning towards three like you.

[thebigspoon]

That's what I like to hear from powerful, beautiful warriors!

[Scooting closer and making adoring eyes because who wouldn't? Hope you don't mind your partners being so tiny]

Buy you a drink?

[shedevilwithsword]

[Well it would certainly be a first. But she's an adult, right?]

That sounds like more than just a fantastic offer.

[thebigspoon]

[By the standards of her community yes. Very adult when given the option]

Then follow me goddess of battle and we will tussle in the sheets where our playing field is all bouncy and silky!

[Taking her hand with nimble little smidgen hands to lead her somewhere sexy and fun]

[shedevilwithsword]

[Her gloved hand is grabbed and Sonja is led on by the small woman. Granted that she may be leaning down a little to allow for such a thing.]

Lead on then, I look forward to seeing how you perform.

[The red head purred, hey, free booze and sex? What more could a sell sword wish for?]

[ohthanknyrgoth]

....

We're fighting mushrooms now? [MAN! She wished she was canon updated. She'll just sit here mumbling something about her mun being cheap and slow about buying the newest comic.]

[thebigspoon]

DEE!

[Squeals as only a Smidgen can and bounces over for hugs]

I wouldn't call it a fight so much as a distraction really!

[Oh but Dee there are some major spoilers related to your past specifically! You must urge them. Then again Betty's mun was lucky and had a 5$ credit to use]
