"I'm not sure how being a magic deer would interact with being an angel - and, dragon?"
"Phix and Max have a dragon after them, mostly Phix, because she's a sphinx and dragons and sphinxes don't get along. The dragon's modus operandi seems to be sending assorted monsters after them until cunning use of runecasting and magic deer abilities and Phix's sphinx magic solve the problem."
"You know, it kind of does now that you mention it. Iiiii am not telling Bella that she's an escort quest."
"Yeah, I can't think that'd go over well. I'm going to guess that Bells as a group don't want to be NPCs. I do not think that part of me would change if I was a girl."

"Sooooo," says a Zevros who is Super Bored by these proceedings. "How big is this ship? Do you have, like - a spare room?"
"You should have asked before I finished the damn thing. If Zane wants to make a room off the side and get Adana to tunnel through the wall thereto and then make a door I won't complain."
Zane goes off to do that.
