"Corundum."

"Simone."

"Zeke."

"Tabby. Or Shadowswell."

The small girl identifies herself as Portal.

"Welcome one, welcome all. As for my - our - little film's plot, best to go with something short and simple. What do you think of this? Two sides both want to loot the tower, so we fight for a while, and then, uh, and then the wolves show up and howl and look cool, and the wolves are the neutral party that could turn the tide of battle... So both sides try to convince them to join forces, and in the valiant final stand the tower comes down."

"Seems narratively plausible."

"And it's simple enough that we can probably do it in a day. But is it cool enough?"

"We could always lure in the others."

"No, no, they'll just spoil everything--"

"I don't know, could be fun."

"I vote no. Stupidly overpowered characters like the triplets make a boring narrative most of the time."

"Wait, you know the triplets?"

He just shrugs.

"Okay, no, I'm not settling for a--" She shrugs in imitation of Kronos.

"It's a power thing, would take waaaay too long to explain."

"How do we know they didn't send you?"

"I guess you don't. But I'm not fighting you or going to summon them to mess with you. I just wanna make a movie. That's the fire that has gripped my imagination today, mateys."

"Look, either way, that building's coming down, so I say don't worry. How should we start?"

"Decide how to split the groups. You know you better than I do."

"I thought you know all."

"Eh, just most. Knowing all things all the time is too much a bother."

"Could I try borrowing your power? Sounds fun."

"I bet you couldn't figure out how to use it even if I'd ever let you."

"Could so!"
