[ after they get their stuff back, and while gale is hanging around the barn for some reason, he's going to feel this lil purple guy (buff man not included) poke at his ankle
it writhes in the hay ]

[ AAAAAAA ]

but then nothing fucking happens ]

geto runs back into the barn, staring at this grown back with his hands posed in... some kinda way while the worm continues to writhe. ]
... Are you okay?

and it will turn its swollen shut eyes in gale's direction and croak out a distorted, mama...
before geto just picks it up by the head and steps away from gale ]
Uh, sorry. It's not dangerous.

[ it just continues to wiggle like it's in pain in his grasp ]
It's a curse. [ so gale doesn't panic, ] But it doesn't have any powers. It's just an ugly pet right now, I guess.

[ hearing 'curse' doesn't seem to induce panic but he is slightly disgrunted if only because that thing attacked his delicate wizard ankles. ]
I see. Is it in need of assitance? It doesn't seem ... well.

[ he drops it, and it kind of just lays on the ground ]
It's an embodiment of a certain type of suffering. I don't think it can be any other way.

This is your... cat?

[ tara hisses. ]
Now, now Tara, I will-- She is not a cat, but a tressym. A rather more impressive creature, all things considered. Tara is as intelligent as anyone here. In fact, most likely more intelligent than most everyone.

Like Pickles?
[ looks back at her... will she accept another scritch? ]
Can she speak?
[ looks back at her... will she accept another scritch? ]

Smarter than Pickles.
[ instantly. sorry he is a cat person. sorry pickles im sorry i love you pickles. ]
She can under normal circumstances, but here her magic is rather on a damper, so I believe the charm is non-operational. She can certainly understand you, however, and I'm perfectly happy to translate. We've known each other for ... what is it Tara? 27 years? I'd say we have a fairly good understanding.

A pejorative for catfolk ... ? It simply seems a bit rude is all. It is not as if you are known as a fleshie, except perhaps by a hungry ogre.
