[QUOTE="BoldItalic, post: 7310023, member: 6777052"] 10 crimson............... geese? "Well, actually, we do. We were wondering what to do with them. They make rather unreliable alarm clocks."

They were proud beasts but they couldn't leave Stubbs in the lurch so they agreed to pull [I]him[/I] out, provided the elf got off and stayed where she was. Jeli shrieked. It was a loud shriek of indignation with a side order of betrayal but it was a convincing shriek. Very convincing. And also very loud. So loud that it attracted the unwelcome attention of ...
