((Well, personally I want Ty to figure out someway to explain the reasoning behind the "second" Goomba, because that'd be a pretty neat thing. Maybe he can multiply in battle or something, only up to two of himself, like in New Super Mario Bros. Except with a smaller goomba, and he accidentally does it when he gets startled or something along those lines. I'd find that neat. You guys don't HAVE to do it though, just a thought.))
...Time for a distraction then. He wasn't going to blatantly lie.
"Introduce yourself first will ya? My name's Magne, you?"
((Also, sorry for the short RP post. Needed to present my thoughts before arcane or Ty edited their posts and possibly removed the strange second goomba.))

It's fine Puuntail! [: D]
That's really neat! I've never met somebody like that! She sounds really nice...Maybe I could visit her one day...It'd be fun I bet! China listens happily as Puuntail rambles along nervously.
---------
Oh...Umm...I'm Moringo Dude. Moringo is a little startled by the sudden change of subject, but decides that it might not be the best time to make light of it.
((wait huh? Did mess up with my grammar? There's only Moringo))

((No, no you didn't mess up your grammar. In my post, Moringo hit the bench, in arcane's Maringo hit Jabbers. Thus, we may have created either two timelines or an interesting idea. As I said though, you don't have to do what I suggested, you guys can probably fix it.))
...Welp, he would've thought the Goomba would've asked more questions, not complied immediately.
"...Alright, that's good to know." The Ember looked away from the GOomba. He was going to have to tell him wasn't he? With a sigh, the Ember continued.
"Yeah, I know where she is, but it's gonna be a while before you can reach her probably."

((How do you not notice the person you just pretty much tackled...? O_O; ))
Puuntail lets out a squeaky little laugh. "It's more likely that she'd, *squeak*, run into you, actually...! Piruna's always traveling, she, *squeak*, gathers supplies for making lotions and perfumes and, *squeak*, other spa things I don't really understand, by making friends with the plant-folks who make 'em naturally, and, *squeak*, brings the supplies back to Keelhaul Key where she and Bluupina live. Though, *squeak*, I'm pretty sure Piruna's running around Rogueport Sewers half the time she's home at the Key anyway... Using the, *squeak*, Warp Pipe. Bluupina runs a resort there. *squeak*, in Keelhaul Key, I mean, n-not in the sewers...!"

((I'll just wait til Harvest decides what to do to add in Punelipi's and/or Jabbers's parts...))

Huh...What did she get herself into this time? Honestly I feel like I'm the older sibling half of the time... Moringo looks a little down. He knew China had a knack for getting into situations.
------------
Ohhh! She runs a Spa! I've never been to one...Mom was planning on adding one to attract customers, but we never had the money...
So Bluupina owns a resort! You guys all sound like real go getters!
((Or both happened but the order of events is wrong))

"....."
There is a really strange glint in Puuntail's eyes all of a sudden... A sly, "plotting something" sort of glint...
"Sounds like you all could use some 'Good Fortune,'" the not-Toad says lightly-- wait...
He... didn't squeak. Or stammer. At all. What the...?

"Good Fortune?" and what do you mean by that Puun? [: o] China asks Curiously. She caught onto that clean sentence, uttered by Puuntail, she knew that she hit something. She could only wonder what though...
((Crim's got it. Moringo's couse would not have altered due to him being much larger than jabber(He's a regular Goomba, nit micro)))

((OH, I GET IT NOW! As in, he hit the Jabbi, kept going, and hit the Bench too! I get it.))
"Nothing... I think" the Ember responded, "There's just some ruckus going on somewhere near the room she's at, I think, I wouldn't know. Plus, she went to go talk to someone as well according to a note, highly doubt she'd just leave in the middle of it."
He took a glance at the Goomba. He seemed... saddened. Turning back to look at the rain, the Ember continued.
"Judging by your expression, I assume she gets in trouble a lot?"

Moringo deciding that since China was unavailable, and since that he asked, he might as well converse.
Well she's a really nice girl, ya'know? She just tends to overexert herself. But she's my sis, so I gotta look out for her.

This he knows. This he can deal with. It feels so GOOD to be back in charted waters... Time to take a page from Pudini's book and put on a show!
Smile. Distract. Sleight of "hand"-- of face, in this case. Slip one hand into his bag. The big pouch, loop caught 'tween pointer and thumb. See Ya, pinched 'tween two fingers. The door's close. Window's closer. "Jabberwonky" is a form he knows oh so well. The real one taught him.
Plan, set. Aaaand into motion!
Three two one go!
"Did you forget? I'm a Lucky Raccoon~."
The not-Toad grins, holds up his hand, and suddenly there's a big puff of smoke--
...He's gone, along with his bag. There's an absurdly large pile of coins sitting on the bed he'd slept in.
...Since when was the window open...?
~
"HEY!" a worried, decidedly unhappy voice calls, "Is anyone nearby? Hello?! Jabbers, why aren't you answering?!"
"...nnngh..."
((BTW, Puuntail-as-a-Jabbi will either arrive here soon or get found out by China and crash into a bush or something in comical fashion, lol.))

((Puuntail distracted China from noticing him reaching into his bag by grinning and talking, pulled out a Hammerspace pouch full of coins and the item called See Ya, used the See Ya to make a smokescreen, dumped the contents of the Hammerspace pouch-- the coins-- onto the spare bed, opened the window, and then jumped out while shifting into the form of a Jabbi; Jabbers coached him ruthlessly on how to fly and move as a Jabbi a long time ago, so it's a comfortable, familiar, easy-to-access form for him, too.))

China sits dazed as the Puni who was her friend practically vanished. She sat saddedned. Noticing the coins, she stared at them disinterestedly. It was a nice gesture but she feels saddened by his leave.

Then, a loud *Crash!* echoes from outside...
"OW! Wh-where did this stupid *squeak* even *squeak* from? *angry squeaking*"
What at first looks to be a Jabbi but soon reforms into a familiar leaf-backed "Tapuunki" is stuck in a bush below the window of Chinablosque's room, paw-feeted legs flailing comically in the air as he tries to free himself.
"*squeak squeak squeak SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEEEAAAK!!!*"

China locks her door before jumping out of the window, her tail slowing her desent. Slowly she walks over to Puuntail and attempts to free him.

((Here you go guys, here's the battle that commenced in PM format (though in actuality, we made peace and avoided a fight, so it's not REALLY a battle)))
- Spoiler:
Shail’s Post:
"What's with all the anger you seem to possess, we were here to talk were we not?"
The "Toad" chuckled at the anger that the Puni possessed, it was absolutely... delicious to watch.
"If you're going to show such anger like that, I think you might be kicked out! If you really don't want me near them, then perhaps it is best that you calm down a little bit?"
At this point, the "Toad" seemed to be picking his fingernails, trying to show no amusement. Though that ever-present grin still remained upon his face. He was definitely enjoying this.
It was then that he noticed, out of the corner of his eye, the skeleton slowly becoming larger. Fully taking his attention off of his nails, he looked towards the Puni. Yep, definitely growing bigger.
"My my my, you're really getting worked up over this aren't you? I'm simply trying to help, you may fight me if you wish. Let me warn you though that doing so would solve absolutely nothing. You would be kicked out, and I would be free to roam as I please! As well as get close to your family."
He could feel his composure breaking, the "Toad" began to giggle like a little school girl who just found out that the guy she likes happened to like her back. This was just so much fun!
Arcane’s post:
"You won't touch ANY of us, filthy BEAST!" Punskull roars.
"HeheeheeheeheeHEE!" a sudden voice interjects, the door to the room warping wildly as someone phases sloppily through, "Don't leave me out of the FUN, Skully~!"
It's the pale, spectral Puni from before, though his hat is missing. There's a large scar running along the portion of his antenna that the hat had covered...
And suddenly, so abruptly it shouldn't be physically possible, most of the rage is just... gone. The skeletal Puni is still growing bigger, though.
"...You're late, Pudini," he sighs. "Did you make it so no one can enter?"
"Of course I did~. We don't wanna get INTERRUPTED or, ohhh, what was it you said, 'kicked out', now DO we~? Heheehee~... And I'm not laaaaate, I was waiting for the foooood, silly~. Now, I seeee we have a saaaaad little Duuuuuuupliii to beat~? Heheeheehee~! There's no Duplighost better than Master Doopliss, Mister UGLY MIND-TWISTER FAKE, and YOU are going to go. down. SCREAMING. It'll be fun~! HeheeeHEEHEEEHEHEHEEHEEEEEEE~!"
Shail’s Post:
“Oh, you wound me with your harsh, harsh words!” The "Toad stated dramtically, pretended to fall back for a moment, holding one of his arms over his head in an attempt to look pathetic. “Why, whatever did I do to deserve such, maltreatment from you!? I am nothing but a good samaritan after all!”
Enough of that horrible horrible acting. In almost a second, he returned back to a more composed stance, grin once again occupying his face.
"To see you both so, angered, it just brightens up my day!"
He giggled once more, it did indeed brighten up his day. Stopping to open his eyes, he took a good look in their direction.
"Honestly, if you're trying to intimidate me, it's really not working. As I said, I'm only here for a talk, nothing more, nothing less. Not only that, but last time I checked, I can’t touch people with my voice!"
A mischievous glint showed in his eye for a split second. "I can change that, if you want me to though,” he followed up.
He shook his head at the two. He really could not believe this! It was just too amusing! Looking down to the floor, his eyes were covered up by the shade that now was his face. His body begin to shake with uncontrollable... laughter? Even as it did that he continued to speak, no laughter was in his voice as he did.
"By the looks of it though, I won't be able to even do that. You'll probably tackle me or something before I could ever even THINK of doing so. If it's a fight you want, though personally I would rather not go through one, then it's a fight you'll get. Let me just get a bit more... comfortable."
A flash, a pause, two more flashes, then a blinding light. In place of the "Toad" stood a figure made of robes. The robes in question were covered with the same color of orange that one would find on... well, an orange. The hem of the robes were the color of purple one would find on grapes. Atop the... head, was a feather, its color matched that of the hem of the robes. The head was still looking down, its arms were now raised. Chuckling could still be heard throughout the room. He's definitely lost it now.
Slowly but surely, both feet removed themselves off the floor, he was... floating. Going higher and higher as his laughter increased in loudness.
"Now then," the mess of robes said, "now that I'm more comfortable, how about we... dance"
His head shot up, his eyes were just as unchanged as ever. Still catlike, still filled to the brim of darkness, with the red pupils that donned both of them. The ever so lovable and maniacal grin was still there. He could barely control himself from laughing, so he decided not to! He just floated there, chuckling and giggling like a madman.
Arcane’s post:
"Yawwwwn. Boooring~. Who cares if you're a weird color~?" Pudini says dismissively, "You're still not getting aaaaaaaaaaanywhere our little Lucky Raccoon, or Starshine, or Beaky, or aaaaaaanyyyyyPuuuuniiii, so, now that you're fiiiiiiiiiinally all ragged and SOON-TO-BE-RIPPED as a sheet~..."
In a puff of smoke, he turns into a Pider, making Punskull flinch and abruptly revert to his normal size.
"AAAAHH!!! P-PUDINI WHAT THE UNDERWHERE?!!"
"If you wanna taaaaaaalk so muuuch, let's taaaaalk, shall we~? THEN we can wipe the floor with you, Mister Rag~."
"FOR THE LOVE OF THE EMERALD STAR PUDINI CHANGE INTO ANYTHING BUT A PIDER RIGHT THIS INSTANT WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!"
Heheehee, silly Skully~... Saying to turn into “anything”... He should know better by now~!
"Heheeheehee, oooon it~!" Pudini cackles, puffing into... ...what looks like a human version of Punskull. He sort of looks like a Twilighter clothes-wise, but lacks the doll-like features of those folk.
"..........Why. WHY. WHY."
"Heheeheehee~..."
Shail’s Post:
The Duplighost at this point was laughing so hard, flipping himself over in the air as he enjoyed the skeleton’s distress.
Then suddenly, he stopped. No pause, no catching of his breath, he just stopped. This was one of the most hilarious things to happen in a long while. He felt the need to point out every single mistake that the two had made.
"Do you really think you can intimidate me, Pudini? That's your name if I recall correctly thanks to the skeleton."
He floated closer to the now-human character, coming eye level to him.
"Do you think, that you, of ALL creatures, could make me feel fear? Do you view yourself as if you are above fear? Do you think that you, unlike others, can cause fear to become manifested and show in any person. The concept in itself, it’s just so... amusing to me!"
He IS fear (so afraid, so afraid; stop it, STOP IT!!), silly RAG~... ((Duplini's thoughts were placed here by arcane))
He floated around the Human's head as he said this, examining it thoroughly. This new form that the doppelganger had taken reminded him of the skeleton. The Duplighost knew it was temporary, but still, quite interesting.
Coming back to be face to face with Pudini, he went in close, and whispered oh so carefully.
"Well I'm afraid you've met your match- no. You’ve met your... superior."
He floated back quickly, imitating a back-step of sorts. Making that extremely annoying cackle again. Oh what a thrill it was to be doing these sorts of things once more! It had been so long since the last time.
With no precautions given, he had dropped from the air. Landing on his feet in style, he looked up towards the duo once more, then corrected his posture.
"You, unlike your friend, actually seem willing to talk however. You seem to be far more reasonable than your comrade as well. Which is says a lot considering that, in terms of mental stability, you and I probably are quite even with each other.”
He moved a couple of inches forward, then stopped in place. He was ready to begin the deal-making.
"Now then, how about you first. How would you like to go about... bargaining with me?
Arcane’s post:
Superior? This haughty rag thinks he's his SUPERIOR? Heheeheehee! Oh, that is RICH. Smile and smile and laugh laugh LAUGH, scary is FUNNY, fear (so afraid so afraid stop stop PLEASE stop) can’t REAAAACH~... His only "superior" is Teacher, and Teacher could wipe the FLOOR with this brat of a Duplighost~! Heheeheehee... HEEHEEHEEHEHEHEEHEEHEE~!
All the talk about bargains and stuff is annoyyyyiiiiing, though... But hey, if it's a deal the rag wants, it's a deeeeaaaal the rag'll get~! HeheeHEEE~...
"The only BARGAIN you'll get is leaving here with your wretched unlife intact, WRETCHED FIEND--" Punskull begins, but is interrupted by a peal of hysterical, cackling laughter from his more whimsical companion.
There's a familiar glint in the not-Human!Punskull's eyes that the skeletal Puni unfortunately knows all too well.
"...Pudini... Oh, for the love of--" "--HEEHEEHEEHEE~--" "--Please tell me you're not going to--"
"HEHEEEHEEHEE~! Fear is fun, silly rag-ghost~. You just don't get it~. Eeeeeverybody has a feeeaaaar, and facing your fear is such a WONDERFUL thing~... I don't know hooow you figured it out, but if you're looking for a jooob-- MMPH!!"
Punskull's eyes glow and the skull mask his 'human-doppelganger' is wearing abruptly slams down over his face, momentarily shutting him up.
"Hiring one of these CREATURES that seek only to do HARM to work in your park is NOT something you should be so eager to do, Pudini!" the skeletal Puni scolds.
"Mmmphhfffaww!! RuderuderuderudeRUUUUDE, Skully~! Juuust because the rag thinks he's all suuuuper-Eerie-"
*slam* goes the skull mask!
"Mmpph!-- to the student of the greeeaaaat Doopliss," Pudini continues without a hitch, "Who could even take the face of the also-great Mario himself for a while, doesn't mean the silly little sheet won't be good at scaring in a way that doesn't HURT anyPuni~! Orrrr anybody, hehee~..."
"...................."
Shail’s post:
Wait a minute... a theme park? Is that seriously what the Puni was thinking he should do? …The Duplighost wasn’t going to question Pudini’s thoughts any further than that. After all, he wasn’t here when his original intentions were revealed. However, this new offer was too interesting for him to pass up! Not only that, but it seemed to get on the nerves of the skeleton Puni, and the Duplighost would do anything to see more-- much more-- of that... delicious anger of his.
Besides, maybe if he decided to humor the Puni and join, it'd help him with his own little... "job" he has. Making deals was such a fun thing to do! The Duplighost chuckled a little, hurt someone, why, the very thought was just...silly. He's more of the kind of guy who would do whatever he was asked to do... for a price of course, but he still would do anything!
"Hurt someone?" The Duplighost asked, pretending to be flabbergasted, "Why would I hurt anyone? Last I recalled, I was minding my own business. I only make deals, help anyone with whatever their hearts desire, that sort of stuff!. Unless being told to do so, which I have not been, I wouldn't do such a thing."
His mind flashed back to the multiple exceptions to that rule, but that was all in the past. After... he happened, things have been quite different. After all, a deal's a deal.
"Now then," he said, pulling out a pen from seemingly nowhere, "Is there a contract that needs to be signed? If so I'll gladly sign it, but you must be warned of something first. Everything has a price, and I'll gladly tell you mine after I read the contract that I’m sure you’ll soon provide..."
He looked over to the skeleton after saying that, then figured he should add one last little tidbit, directed at the skeleton this time around.
"I would like you to know, that I think you'll find we'll both be happy. I’ll comply with the desires you had for me to leave, and I shall be on my way soon afterwards."
Arcane’s post:
"....Who Pudini hires as staff members for his theme park is none of my business," Punskull grumbles, still glaring at the Duplighost like he's been doing pretty much this entire time save for a few stray glances at Pudini that have been slowly growing in frequency over the past few minutes.
The shapeshifter in question blinks, his far-more-expressive-than-a-Puni's "human" face scrunching up in confusion. "Waaaaiiiit... You don't know what I'm even talking about, do you?? Hehee, so you really didn't know~... Didn’t even know, but so eager to play a part in my wild masterpiece... Haven't you ever heard of Spook Citadel~? Neeeearly eeeeveryone has heard of Spook Citadel~. And wonders whoooo's it's founder~! Which is, heheehee, ME~."
"..... *rattling sigh*"
"HeheeHEE, those rumors about it being run by a, oh, how did they phrase it agaaaain, Skully~?" Pudini cackles merrily,
"A "strange and exotic partnership between a reclusive Thwomp architect and an undead artistic genius"," the seemingly-resigned skele-Puni fills in with another sigh.
"Pff, as if that hack Van Gore could actually produce anything good~... Yeah, that one was really rich~. Glad it got quashed pretty quick, though; that imbecilic brush-waver doesn't deserve to be associated with anything good~... His creations always HURT."
The Skele-Puni actually stops glaring at the Duplighost for a good ten seconds at the least, shooting a startled glance towards Pudini.
Wait... That tone... Is he...?
Shail’s Post:
...Oh ...that theme park. This little creature was the cause of all that talk behind it? That made him quite... intrigued with this. Not only was the Puni the talk behind it, but it also seemed as if Pudini was able to see right through him for a split second. If only long enough to realize that the Duplighost had no idea which theme park he had been referring to originally.
He jumped up and stayed aloft once more. Deciding to lay down on his stomach in midair, he held up his arm and spoke.
"So, if I am to be hired for this, what would this job that you would give me... entail? I expect it’s not just walking around and scaring people. As amusing as that would be, it just wouldn’t work considering all of the things I can do."
This was truly quite the request, being hired for an actual job as opposed to doing things to grant one's desires is not something he was used to. This doesn’t mean that he didn’t find this change not to be beneficial for all parties involved.
Arcane’s post:
"Heheehee~... Weeell, you like bargains, riiight~?" Pudini not-quite-cackles, splaying his hands as if balancing two objects of equal weight on his palms-- Heheehee, hands are so fun~--, "That makes for a greeeeaaaat mystery~! Games of chance, one or the other... A riddle, a maze, a gamble, a trade, a quiz, a skit, a magic show, a little play~... Oh, there are so MANY things you could do, just from the oooone little theme of "this~? or~ that~?"... Heh..."
A weirdly normal chuckle comes from the pale not-human as he continues, eyes alight with childish glee and ohhh this is so much fuuun... and... something else.
An intelligence is there, a rationality, something... Something more than just a cackling, meddling jester.
That insane joy is dimming, morphing into a glow of creativity and just the slightest hint of a love of entertaining...
Arcane - ((Yes, I was trying to use the Humor colors, lol. I thought it would be a nice touch.))
The Skele-Puni's gaze has drifted away from the Duplighost again, back towards Pudini.
He is. Why is that side of him showing itself in front of this creature, of all things...?
"It's all up to you, you're clearly intelligent enough to come up with a role-- even an entire new attraction, heh-- in which you'd excel... Though, a scripted performance likely wouldn't be a very good fit, so interaction with parkgoers would likely be more your forte... Hmm, Skully doesn't like you, so that rules out Trickster's Tower, and Doopliganger's Labyrinth isn't quite that sort of maze that would need a 'guide', plus it's in honor of my teacher so having any other Duplighost be the 'face' of the attraction is entirely out of the question anyway... What would you suggest? The only thing I'll say no to, really, is a merchant, because you'd be far too tempted to swindle the customers."
"Or offer something the establishment doesn't sell," Punskull adds a bit pointedly. He isn't glaring quite so harshly at the Duplighost now, though-- he hasn't been since that hint of 'someone-else' started slipping into Pudini's voice.
He will never forgive the creature for daring to peer into his mind, to even THINK of offering such a disgusting deal, for targeting Puuntail... But, for granting the old Pudini a chance to show his face again, he's grateful to the Duplighost. These times come few and much too far between... It's nice.
"Hehee~. Or that, yeah. That would be bad. My wild little wonderland is spooky, not shady! Heheh!
Shail’s Post:
How... odd, it seemed as if Pudini had become a lot more sane. This was certainly an interesting development. Perhaps now the Duplighost can be a bit more rational in this discussion, having no reason to act silly. Well, he had a reason to, but in all honesty, the skeleton was starting to bore him at this point.
Pudini’s offer was, once again, a strange one. Now, considering everything comes with a price... what would he be gaining from this?
...He would have access to more people for his own personal amusement, that's one thing. That little fact lowers his price significantly enough already. The addition of him choosing his OWN attraction is a nice bonus...
...There it is, there's the catch. The Duplighost walked towards the humanoid figure. When just in range, he extended his arm. A grin showed upon his face, the one he always had, he had to agree with the skeleton for once. Having no payment at all DID sound like a good idea, especially due to what he'll choose.
"I'll take you on your offer, I'll be the local Fortune Teller if that isn't too much of a problem. While everything comes with a price, the amusement I gained from this interaction with you two AND the ones whom I’ll soon be speaking with will be enough of a payment. There will be no need to give me money; coins, I find, are highly unnecessary for my purposes.”
Arcane’s Post:
The 'human' flinches slightly as the Duplighost approaches, but quickly hides it.
Focus, FOCUS, Skully likes it when he's him-him, he likes it when he's him-him, everything's so clear and nice even if the fear can touch him like this , so hard to keep hold, don't slip, not yet, not yet...
"Alright, it's a deal, then... I don't really understaand-- FOCUS!! why you wouldn’t want a salary, though. You never know when you might need some Coins... I, ah, don't have any of the paperwork with me, but... Just give me a moment to write out a letter, you can show it at the ticket gate in... heheee~... I'll just write the date and time down, too... ...tos- see me and set this up properly..."
He doesn't shake the Duplighost's 'hand', instead making his way over to an end table and pulling a pen and sheet of paper out of... somewhere and starting to write on it without even bothering to turn on a lamp. Maybe his imitation of a 'human Punskull' even extends to the light-sensitivity, and therefore a sort of night-vision...?
"...Duplighost," Punskull says quietly while Pudini is distracted, trying to get the deal-maker's attention.
Shail’s Post:
...Oh? Was the skeleton trying to talk to him now? He might as well humor tiny being wants whilst Pudini writes and struggles at holding onto his sanity. Who knows, it might make the skeleton less... boring to him.
Making sure to keep his composure intact, he turned towards the skeleton in question. A somewhat creepy grin that seemed full of hidden intent was still upon his face.
"The name's Doopolical, there’s no need to refer to me as my species constantly, is there?"
Suddenly coming up with an amusing idea, he added with a tad bit more mischievousness in his voice, "That reminds me actually, while I know the jester's name I'm afraid I haven't been told yours yet. Be a gentleman for me and introduce yourself if you would," taking a pause there, he imitated the voice of the skeleton's comrade for just a moment, "Skully~".
Arcane’s Post:
"My name is Punskull, Duplighost," the Skele-Puni rattle-growls pointedly.
Shail’s Post:
Wow, he really thought he was scary didn’t he? Maybe just intimidating, but he was trying his hardest to anger the Duplighost. He should know by now that acting with such anger would not phase Doopolical in the slightest.
Deciding to mock him, the Doopolical began to act in an overly dramatic manner, taunting Punskull.
"Ooooh, how utterly terrifying! To be called my species instead of my actual name is quite the horror! Oh, please, make it stop!"
After that little charade, the Duplighost immediately reverted back to a casual stance, grinning widely all the same.
"Now then, since I am done mocking you, was there something you actually wanted to say, or are you wasting your time as opposed to mine?"
Arcane’s Post:
The Skele-Puni growls again, glaring at Doopolical with frustration, conflicted feelings, and irritation all bundled together in his burning red eyes.
"Shut up and let me FINISH while he's still off in his own head, Duplighost. You are NOT my friend, we are NOT on a first-name basis, stop assuming everything I say is an attempt to 'intimidate', I am not Pudini in his... usual state of mind and I simply DO. NOT. LIKE. YOU. I have merely two things to say."
He can't BELIEVE he's actually asking this CREATURE for help, and with something caused at least in part by its miserable kind no less... Rrgh.
"One: hurt Pudini any further than he already is and I will make your unlife WORSE than the Underwhere. That is not a threat, but a PROMISE.
Two: answer me this: Do you know of any way to help him?"
Shail’s post:
Oh so now he wants to talk. Doopolical supposed it was better late than never, and hey, he might be able to salvage this deal if he plays his cards right.
"...I can make no promises on the former. I can tell you however that the only reason I would harm one, as I had stated earlier, would be if someone made a deal with me to do so. To cease your worries though, I’ll make the price for harming to you, or your friend over there, higher than one would normally expect.”
Another chuckle, followed by more words that proceeded to spew out of his mouth.
"As for a... cure I might know something about it, I might not. I can confirm that there might still hope though. Remember my plans to help one of your family be normal? I could just as easily fix Pudini’s problem,” he snaps his nonexistent fingers, “just like that!”
He chuckled once more, this time a borderline cackle.
“Due to your... rejection of my offer though, I’m afraid I won’t be doing that for you at your request, or at the request of another family member of yours.”
Turning around, he looks over his shoulder to make sure that the Puni would hear the next thing he had to say.
"Besides, I'm sure you could find an alternate solution to your problem anyway. I'm not the only one who could fix him you know, just one of the very few.
Arcane’s Post:
A rattling, wheezing sound issues from the skeletal Puni-- wait, is he... laughing...?
It's POSSIBLE. There's some way OUT THERE...!
"Ha... ha ha... haaa... Y-you... I... haha... never said... I'd make a deal... with... haha... YOU for it..." Punskull gasps out in whatever pauses in the waves of relieved laughter shaking his bony frame he can find, "...Th-thank you... for confirming... ...it's... possible... haha... though... ha... haha..."
Can't... breathe...
Shail’s post:
...So, the skeleton really can have a good time? Doopolical presumed he should be glad to have been of assistance then, giving life to bones that were rotting away.
Leaving the skeleton to laugh his probably nonexistent heart out, he turned towards Pudini. Had the letter been completed yet, or did he need to wait longer? Either way he was sure he had enough smarts to provoke more... fun things out of the skeleton, as odd as that may have seemed.
Arcane’s post:
A flicker, a snap, and suddenly it's a pale, pale boy, paler than even the "human Punskull" had been, standing there writing with a shaking hand-- a "human" Pudini...?
[color:eb27="#964514”]“F-focus... Just... focus....” he’s muttering, seeming to have calmed a little. A deep breath, and the shaking in his hands has lessened, too.
“Entertaining, Creating, Shining...[/color]
Inventing, Performing, Caring...
Planning, Building, Sharing...
Meddling, Plotting, Smiling...”[/color]
Pudini mumbles after a minute or two, half-singing the words-- how is Punskull STILL laughing? Or even conscious at all??--, signing the letter with a flourish.
Then he turns away from the table, letter in hand. There’s a prominent scar on his forehead, half-hidden by messy grey-white bangs... It looks a lot more serious a wound than the mark on his Puni form’s antenna...
Shail’s post:
“I’ll be taking that now, thank you very much,” The spectral simply stated, yoinking the letter from the hands of the grey-haired being. Slowly backing away, he stored the letter on his person. If he was going to read it, he might as well do it later. Having his full attention on the “human”, he said one last thing before he made his way out.
“A deal’s a deal, I’ll see you when we are going to make ours.” With one final grin, he dived backwards, as if he was a professional diver getting the gold. When he touched the shadows, he went through them like water. He would be seen another day.
END DAY 3: Doopolical Story.

((Aaaand THAT is why I hadn't posted here yet. We were finishing this...
So, Dusk is en route to the room, but Boondaid (sorry again) is actually in there, but got stuck inside Pudini's barrier because of bad timing. So, said barrier is fading now... Also yep the human/Twilighter sprites I made were for this, lol. I won't do Puuntail's response yet since now I finally have in-thread control over all my charas once more~))

Boondaid had curiously peeked into the room, only to be caught in a situation completely unrelated to him. He sat thete quietly, not daring to speak a word, for he could feel that something was definately wrong with the Doopolical and Pundini. Especially Pundini...
At least the Skeletal Puni, Punskull? Was sane enough. Otherwise he could only wonder what may have transpired. He had questions, many questions, but he felt that this was not the place to ask it. Even Boondaid himself could tell the stark seriousness and akward conversings were something even he should avoid. So he sat their as silently as possible.
The barrier started to weaken as he let out a mental sigh of relief, except it wasn't a mental one, infact it was rather loud for the quiet room.

Dusk stormed down the hall. He had definitely heard more sounds come from this direction. Really, there was no telling exactly where the room was, the sounds were sometimes so loud, but the direction was obvious. He figured he would probably hear fighting or at the very least talking when he came by the door. And that hooligan was sure to be there when he arrived.
((When should Dusk reach the room?))

"Mmnph!"
So embarrassing aaaagh...
~
(now is fine~. Also, Harvest, I dunno if you're doing it on purpose, as in your characters having misheard Pudini's name, but, umm... Pudini's name is Pudini. Like "Houdini". Not Pundini... ^.^; if it's intentional, fine, but otherwise, not to be rude, but it's kind of been niggling at the OCD Grammar Nazi who lives in a corner of my brain being a nitpicky little brat. ^.^; Sorry.)
Pudini takes no notice of the Boo, mumbling something to Punskull about going to his room and walking towards the door leading to the hallway.
The skele-Puni, on the other hand, snaps his head towards Boondaid, eyes glowing dangerously. He's already getting bigger--
Then his gaze settles on Boondaid and he reverts back to normal with a wheezy little exhalation that, if not for the unsettling undertone of rattling bones, would probably be interpreted as a sigh.
"Oh. Just a Boo. How long have you been there?"

"...I see."
That's all there was to it, no more was said from the Ember as he floated off the bench. He knew how the Gooba felt all too well. He'd never say that aloud though.
He floated towards the rain... he was going to hate himself for this later. While could drink liquids, being covered with them was a completely different story. He turned to the Goomba, "Think you can hang on for just a moment so I can get those two out of the mud?"
Without waiting for an answer, he walked into the tiny drizzle... god this hurt a lot. Reaching the Jabbi and flailing basket. He decided to say something to calm the basket down.
"Yeah, I'm still here. Just give me a moment okay? Your friend over here fell."
Picking up the Jabbi and basket with his telekinetic powers, he proceeded towards the shelter of the roof.
