[color=f7941d]"Hey, I have a better idea, why don't I throw you out of this tavern and the kid can have [i]your[/i] seat?"[/color] Flicker muttered, a couple more sparks sputtering out from their hair.

"HA!" Gorgash gave a harsh bark of laughter in response. "I'd like to see you try 'ot 'ead."

"[color=00a99d]Easy Flickah, I think he just confused you for me. I didn't think it was possible to confuse orange for blue, but here we are[/color]" Cascade said before moving off to deal with the brewing tension between Max and Hammerhand.

Gorgash only chuckled in response. Then he turned to look at Flicker. "You'd think a worshipper of the dolphin-fucker would be able to come up with somethin' actually clever." The orc jabbed behind the paladin's back. "But then again, Sashy is one o' the ponce god's goons."

When Cascade issued her Command, it looked for a moment like Max would succumb to the compulsion. However, just as he began to start stepping back, Max grit is teeth, shut his eyes, and martialled his willpower in a moment of supreme effort. "Fuck your peace." Max took a step forward. "Fuck your god." Max took another step. "Fuck your insatiable marid whore mother!" A third step. "And FUCK YOU!" With that final shout, Max lunged forward, leapt up onto Hammerhand's table and brought his scimitar to bear. The blade swung twice, once towards Cascade and once towards Hammerhand. Neither swing found its mark, with Cascade just barely managing to block the blow in time and Hammerhand's chain shirt withstanding the much less effective second strike.

"WAIT!" A voice cried out then. A man rushed out from behind the bar, eyes wide with fear as he moved into speaking distance. "Wait! Please! Hold on! You don't know what you're doing!" The man called out to the party.
