-- an argument begins between the siblings over dinner --

"Well! I guess whatever Meddy baby says is law."

Medraut glared his harshest of glares at his sibling, "Fuck off."

"Oops! I'm feeling the pressure of the law," Morgan teased. They waved to everyone seated as they rised from the table, "A law has been said that I must fuck off, so I shall! Enjoy dinner."

Summary:

The Tarnished reluctantly partakes in a seafood boil hosted by Blackguard Big Boggart. Only, they are stuck collecting the majority of the ingredients when Blackguard refuses to provide anything but prawns and crab. What will the Tarnished bring to the seafood boil?

“Aye, I don't want to see your arse at the gates ‘ill you've gotten the ingredients for a ‘oil.” He shouted at the Tarnished’s back as they stormed off.

Really, all these escaped prisoners were the same —do something for me and then I’ll think about helping you out. In this case, the Tarnished hadn't even desired help in the true sense of the word, they had simply hoped for a listening ear to commiserate their struggles with. After the illusion of Morgott had suddenly appeared in front of them, this journey to fulfill Melina’s accord had only grown more complicated, but yes, why not have a seafood boil.

Yet, as the Tarnished slowly cooled off their emotions, they couldn't help but admit silently that Blackguard had a point. It would be nice to have a seafood boil before battling the Tree Sentinel. It might just be the thing needed to gear up the last stretches of courage to take her down. The natural essence of plain boiled crabs with no other flavor had long lost its appeal after having it prior to every fight. It was certainly time to spruce things up and their individual attempts to try something new hadn't gone well back in the Mistwoods.
