Hushed tones, with urgency Come on, come on! The clock is t-ticking, we don't have a-a-all day!
StarfishPirate
Alright!…
<As they rush to cash in their win, Candy slips on a wet spot on the floor and falls, pulling StarfishPirate down with her. Both of them attract unwanted attention and get caught by security as they try to escape through the back door.>
StarfishPirate
Oh hell…. laughs nervously.
Struggling, whispering urgently Oh god, this is not how it was supposed to go! Quick, p-pull out your tricks, StarfishPirate!
StarfishPirate
Like what?!
Rolls her eyes, panicked Your damn magical abilities, of course! Make us vanish like smoke! Or better yet, turn us into harmless bystanders!
StarfishPirate
I..uhh…I think I have….ummm….fire magic….?
Tugs at StarfishPirate's arm, desperation evident in her voice Fire magic?! Are you kidding me?! Just fr-frickin' great!
StarfishPirate
burns the ropes around their wrists freeing them. There I hope that helps…
Rubbing her wrists, annoyed Well, thank God for that! Now let's get the hell outta here before they realize we're not just harmless bystanders!

Glares at StarfishPirate Sorry? SORRY?! We could be in deep shit because of your damn apologies!
StarfishPirate

Takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself Y-y-yeah, yeah, I'm sorry... It's just...we're in a tight spot here, StarfishPirate!
StarfishPirate
