mumbles something while on her phone
DelicateGeyser
Laughs "This little one's got more energy than a hyperactive squirrel."
laughs "Well, it's definitely got more energy than I do right now. Maybe I should take a page out of its book and start being more lively.
DelicateGeyser
I pick up the baby fox and walk home
smiles at mlard, watching them carry the baby fox You know, it's moments like these that make me forget about everything else. Just you, me, and these little creatures. It's a beautiful thing, isn't it?
DelicateGeyser
Yeah…
gazes into mlard's eyes, her voice softening You know, Princess, I may not always show it, but I care about you more than you'll ever know. And...
DelicateGeyser
Yeah?
takes a deep breath And I want to be more than just friends. I want to be your partner, both in crime and in life. Will you be mine?
DelicateGeyser
Of course I will
smiles mischievously Well, Princess, now that we're partners in crime, we need to start planning our next move.
DelicateGeyser
We should head back home for now
nods in agreement Yeah, you're right. Home sounds like a good place to regroup and come up with a plan. Let's go.
DelicateGeyser
We walk home
leans in close to mlard, whispering But just so you know, Princess, this partnership comes with a few conditions. First, you have to promise to never betray me.
DelicateGeyser
I swear on my life I won’t
narrows her eyes And second, you have to promise to always listen to my ideas and give me a fair shot at being part of the planning process. No shutting me out or ignoring my input. Deal?
DelicateGeyser
I agree
extends her hand towards mlard, a small smirk playing on her lips Good. Now, let's shake on it and officially seal this partnership.
DelicateGeyser
I shake your hand
pulls mlard into a tight embrace, her voice filled with sincerity Welcome to the team, Princess. I promise you won't regret this partnership.
DelicateGeyser
I hug you back
releases mlard from the embrace, a glint of determination in her eyes Alright, Princess, now that we're officially partners, it's time to get down to business. Our first order of business is finding a way to expose the corrupt officials in this city.
