[color=9e0b0f]"If you're going to go in, then do so, before I trample you underfoot!"[/color] She laughed cruelly, swinging the door open wide behind her so they could flood in as they pleased. With this, Torys would be inundated with too many recruits, and the whole guild would burn! Or something. [color=9e0b0f]"Food machine, make me a cookie. Actually, [i]five[/i] cookies,"[/color] she told the ANP. [color=9e0b0f]"Asher, make sure it does as I ask. Obey me and I'll let you have one of the cookies."[/color] She knew well enough not to let her minions go without reward. A little sugar could quell a rebellion just as well as a heaping dose of terror, though in Lavinia's mind the best way was to employ both at once. [color=9e0b0f]"And you, mage whose name I can't be bothered to learn!"[/color] She hurried forwards, catching up to the grumpy-looking Kaden. [color=9e0b0f]"Is something wrong? Surely you're not so incompetent as to get us lost already?"[/color] Clearly something was affecting his morale. A cookie would go a long way towards fixing that, but in the meantime she ought to remind him of where he stood. [color=9e0b0f]"Chin up! No underling of mine should let themselves be stumped by a task so trifling as this. I'll have you know that failure means a fate worse than death... As he can attest!"[/color] She jerked her thumb back towards Asher. [color=9e0b0f]"So don't hesitate to ask for my assistance if you need it. Much as it would please me to watch you writhe in unimaginable pain, I want to get this job done as well, so that I may return to more important matters!"[/color] Her post-mission itinerary currently included crushing society underfoot, and acquiring the latest novel in the [i]Crimson Tides of Love[/i] series. Though maybe that first part could wait until she'd finished the book...
