Ah, yes! That certainly sounds like somewhere a Jaeger would be right at home. Has he decided on your consorts, yet? I can't imagine they'll be too pleased about the arrangements.

[moveslikejaeger]

Nooooo, not really. He vants zumting equally... er... "unpleazant," dough. He sez skeletons, but Hy say, what so unpleazant about skeletons?

[sugardoom]

Well, I have rather large white spiders, and I think Aunt Lucrezia is trying for some amalgamation of hawk wasps and trapdoor spiders and the pure stuff nightmares are made of, so you'd have good company.

Sleipnir just has ponies.

De schmott guy likes schpiders, he tinks hyu iz beink silly. Aldough, ee iz vary about my beink in de same place az Miz Lucrezia, especially eff Miz Agatha iz not around. She iz a Heterodyne, after all, effen eff it only through marriage.

Und, Miz Agathat probably vould not be happy to see her, either.

[sugardoom]

Oh, no, make no mistake! I quite like my spiders. They're a little scatterbrained but they mean well.

And... ah. Well. You wouldn't have to obey her, not really. Isn't that the whole point with you jaegers? You do things out of loyalty and love rather than... you know... mind control?

At any rate, I suppose Billsprite can step in if things get out of hand.

[moveslikejaeger]

Ho! Vell, so long as hyu not skwishink dem, Hy tink he von't make a fuss. He fusses offer de silliest uv tings. Vorry, vorry, vorry, dot's all he does. Hy tink he just needs a gorl.

Yes, but, ven all hyu haz iz a schtick... Actually, Hy can tink uv a a lot uv tings Hy can do mit ein schtick. Plus, mebbe Hy can do de sottle ting und schpy fur ven Miz Agatha arrives!

Ooh, iz Meester Bill gonna be dere too?

[sugardoom]

I doubt anyone squish these without a concentrated effort, they're about two feet long without the legs.

And yes! Bill is already there, sort of. He's my Sprite. Sort of a spirit guide game abstraction. I got him by accident when I threw a book at the Sprite I'd already prototyped.

I honestly don't know why I thought the Hot Pipes were a good choice for that. But now Bill gets an absolutely smashing kilt, so I suppose it all works out?

[moveslikejaeger]

[Just give him a moment to consider the idea of Bill Heterodyne in a kilt. Hmmm, yeah, he can dig it.]

Hy cen't imagine henyvun complains too much about dot. Und, ve do mees Meester Bill, he vas such a goot boy. It vould be nize to see him again, effen eff he iz not de real Meester Bill. Dem stories iz alvays goot fur a laugh.
