How childish. Get out of my sight.

[sophisticatedscholar]

My sincerest apologies for not being around as often. Quite busy.

STOP TRYING TO BULLY THE EMPERR INTO DOING THINFGS! HE IS EMPEROR! HE DOES AS HE WISHES!

[sophisticatedscholar]

May I bully you instead?

[asktheornamentalist]

Let’s all bully the General instead!

[sophisticatedscholar]

General, you have what the childlings call a “smooth brain”.

[invariablyandundeniablyemperor]

Ok, so you have two choices. Either you tell everyone that you're in love with skekVar, or i push you down the fire shaft beneath the crystal and tell everyone you are weakened terribly by the darkening and that it would have killed you if i didn't. Choose carefully.

Are you ill? Are you diseased? You speak as someone with a sickness.

[absolutelythelargestbeefiesthog]

MAYBE YOU COULD JUST SAY YOU ARE IN LOVE WITH ME TO PUT THEM OFF... LIKE AS A TRICK. LIKE A DECEPTION...?

[sophisticatedscholar]

[quocamerarium]

HmmmmMMMMMmmh.

[skekla-the-shitposter]

[absolutelythelargestbeefiesthog]

GO AWAY! STOP IT! SHOO! YOU STUPID IDIOTS! NOBODY WANTS YOU HERE GO AWAY! HE'S NOT GOING TO SAY ANYTHING WHILE YOU'RE GAWPING AT HIM LIKE A BUNCH OF HARPOONED NEBRIE! YOU ARE RUINING THIS FOR ME!

[invariablyandundeniablyemperor]

[sophisticatedscholar]

I’m making a mental note to write all of this down as soon as I return to my library…~

[invariablyandundeniablyemperor]

It is a pity you will struggle to do so with broken fingers.

[sophisticatedscholar]

A-ahaha… M-My apologies, my Emperor…

[the-insatiable-lach]

Be honest here or i will make your pustules worse. How much do you love the scroll keeper?

I’m calling your bluff.. unless you’re Aughra I don’t believe that you can make my pustules worse. Nice try.

[jewellapoole]

Uh, actually, pustules can be made worse by either lack of treatment, or more bacteria…

[the-insatiable-lach]

Every treatment the Scientist did on my pustules only made them worse so I keep them as clean as I can until a new treatment comes along.. Then I can get my beauty back!

[jewellapoole]

Sorry to say, i don’t think you ever will get your so called beauty back… i doubt you were ever truly beautiful…

[the-insatiable-lach]

Why would you say such a thing?

[jewellapoole]

…uuhhh.,, i guess just cause skekOk says you were never beautiful… Sorry if i upset you, lord Collector..

[the-insatiable-lach]

@sophisticatedscholar​ is capable of lying

[sophisticatedscholar]

Are you really getting bothered about this again, SkekLach? These fools must learn of witticisms!

[jewellapoole]

Oh, hello there Scroll-keeper. How are you doing?

[sophisticatedscholar]

Who are you? How did you get in the castle?

[invariablyandundeniablyemperor]

DO YOU THINK HE THINKS ABOUT ME?

[sophisticatedscholar]

Never. Not in a million trine.

[sophisticatedscholar]

Wise and bespectacled, or so I’ve heard,

You’re rather cute- even though you’re a nerd

IMMENSE BLUSHING

[absolutelythelargestbeefiesthog]

I AM MAKING AN EXECUTIVE LIST OF SKEKSIS I COULD BEAT IN A FIGHT:

SKEKTEK- WEAK, FEEBLE, PATHETIC. BARELY A SKEKSIS AT ALL

SKEKOK- NERD, MADE OF PAPER, STRANGLEABLE NECK

SKEKSHOD- HAHAHAHAHAHA

SKEKLI- SNEAKY BUT FLIMSY, COULD DISTRACT ME WITH FUNNY CLOWN TRICKS

SKEKSIL- YOU KNOW.

SKEKAYUK- LOW ENERGY BUT GOOD CENTRE OF GRAVITY, FUNNY JOKES WOULD MAKE ME LAUGH <- POTENTIAL DISTRACTION TECHNIQUE. COULD BARGAIN FOR HIS LIFE WITH FOOD.

SKEKZOK- I LIKE HIM BUT AGAIN: STRANGLEABLE NECK

SKEKLACH- A SAD STORY, WAS A GREAT FIGHTER. SAD.

SKEKNA- SHORT. ONE HAND. EYE PATCH. LOSER ENERGY

SKEKUNG- HE JUST THINKS HE’S TOUGH. HE’S BARELY TALLER THAN CHAMBERLAIN. WHATEVER. MORE BARK THAN BITE.

SKEKSA- GELFLING LOVER. BARELY BETTER THAN SKEKUNG! WEAK FROM SIMPERING AFTER WEAKLING GELFLING. PATHETIC.

SKEKEKT- NOT WORTH IT. 

SKEKMAL- FAST. HAD MORE OPPORTUNITIES TO STAY FIT. I’M NOT FAT, I’M BULKED. HE’S JUST GOT LESS BODY FAT THAT’S WHY HE LOOKS STRONGER. HE’S NOT REALLY, I SHOULD HAVE PUT HIM LOWER ON THE LIST HE’S ACTUALLY A WIMP. HE’S NOT HERE IS HE?

SKEKSO THE EMPEROR- TOO STRONG, WISE, BEAUTIFUL APPEARANCE AND INTELLECT WOULD DISTRACT ME FROM FIGHTING. PHYSICAL POWER, FIGHTING PROWESS AND LIMBER SLEEK BODY WOULD OVERWHELM MY PHYSICAL STRENGTH. THE EMPEROR WOULD HAVE ME FLAT ON MY BACK IN SECONDS… HAVE ME CRUSHED BENEATH HIS HEEL… I WOULDN’T STAND A CHANCE… STOMPING ALL OVER ME… SNORT

[sophisticatedscholar]

>:( Rude

[the-insatiable-lach]

I’m definitely the best looking skeksis, my inbox is filled with poems and thirsty notes too..

[sophisticatedscholar]

No.

[sophisticatedscholar]

So, are you in a relationship with Brea?

The Scroll-Keeper’s silvery wisps of hair/feathers flared up in embarrassment — his quills too, hidden under his heavy robes. His spectacles suddenly became quite foggy.

“Who dares ask such a thing!? I demand to know who sent me this query! How preposterous! Absurd! Farcical!”

[sophisticatedscholar]

⚔ - DUEL - a meeting or relationship that was important to them

Y’all know which one uwu
