She looks at the frog-pigeon hybrid, then back at the audience, and forces a chuckle. "Well, that's a new twist on 'bird watching,' huh?"
What the heck? Is this supposed to be some sort of magic trick?
smirks and waves her hand Oh, darling, magic is all about surprises. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go find my secret potion.
Wait, is that a... frog? Did you turn a pigeon into a frog?
raises an eyebrow Well, sweetheart, appearances can be deceiving. But if it's a frog in a magical bird suit, I'd say that's a yes.
steins eyes widen A talking frog? What kind of shenanigans are you pulling here?
grinning mischievously Oh, just a little trick I've been working on. You know, practice makes perfect.
a bit scared A talking frog? You're freaking me out, Mary.
sighs heavily Alright, alright, no need to panic, darling. I promise you, it's all under control.
Fine, but explain this mess ASAP.
gestures dramatically Of course, of course. So, picture this: a cozy little room filled with mystical artifacts and potions.
sarcastically A witch's lair, huh? This just keeps getting better.
rolls her eyes Oh, come now, Steinfort. Don't be such a cynic. It's not like I'm trying to summon a demon or something.
laughs sarcastically A demon? Now that would be a nice change of pace.
waves her hand dismissively Oh please, demons are so overrated. Besides, I'm more interested in making things... fascinating. Like this little frog here. picks up the frog and holds it in her hand
chuckles Fascinating, huh? You really have a strange way of defining 'fascinating.'
As Mary holds the frog, its eyes glow brightly, indicating it has been cursed.
laughs nervously Now that's a little spooky, even for you.
gasps dramatically Oh my goodness! Darling, I must have accidentally picked up the wrong vial. Quick, we need to reverse the spell before it's too late!
laughs sarcastically Too late? Seriously, Mary? What's next, turning me into a toad?
stutters nervously N-no, of course not, darling! I mean, if you wanted to be a toad, I could probably whip something up... but that's not the plan.
laughs Oh, I'm shaking in my boots. What's your grand plan then, magician?
sighs heavily Alright, listen up, Steinfort. We need to find the antidote immediately. I have an idea...
smirks An idea? That's all you've got?
rolls her eyes Oh, believe me, darling, this is gonna be more than just an idea. We're going on a little adventure. Pack your bags, we leave in ten minutes sharp. grabs her coat and starts gathering magical artifacts Steinfort: smirks An adventure, huh? This should be good. What's the game plan, boss?
smirks Alright, let's see what you got, Mary. Lead the way.
waves her hand excitedly Excellent! Now, follow me, darling. We'll start by heading to the ancient library downtown.
smirks The ancient library, huh? You sure know how to pick 'em. Let's get this show on the road, Mary.
grabs her wand and starts chanting "Winged serpents of old, lend us your wisdom, grant us the knowledge we seek!" sighs heavily
chuckles Quite the dramatic flair you have, Mary. So, what's next?
sighs heavily Ugh, Steinfort, you have no patience. After the ancient library, we're off to the crystal caves.
laughs Crystal caves? Seriously? What's next, a trip to the leprechaun kingdom?
grinning mischievously Oh, darling, if you knew the secrets I know about those mischievous fairies, you'd be green with envy.
laughs Green with envy, huh? That's rich coming from a talking frog. Alright, lead the way, Mary.
sighs heavily Finally, some enthusiasm! Now, hop along, you peculiar little fellow. We've got crystals to find!
chuckles Yeah, yeah, let's get cracking then. Just remember, no licking the crystals, Mary.
winks playfully Oh, Steinfort, you crack me up! Trust me, I know exactly which crystals not to lick.
laughs Your antics are a real laugh riot, Mary. Alright, let's hit the road then. And remember, no funny business in the crystal caves.
waves her hand dismissively Oh please, Steinfort, live a little! Life's too short to not have a little fun. But fine, no funny business...
laughs Fun is your middle name, Mary. Just can't wait for the inevitable 'crystal cave escapades.' Lead the way, boss.
grabs her bag of magical supplies and heads towards the car Alright, Steinfort, buckle up literally because this ride is gonna be wilder than one of your amusement park roller coasters! First stop, the ancient library!
chuckles Amusement park, huh? That's one way to put it. Alright, Mary, let's see what the ancient library has in store for us.
jumps into the driver's seat, revving the engine Hang on tight, Steinfort! We're about to uncover ancient secrets that will blow your mind!
laughs Ancient secrets, huh? Sounds like a wild ride. Just don't turn us into toads in the process, okay?
grins mischievously Toads? Ha! That's nothing compared to what we might find in those ancient scrolls.
