Jub gave a loud sigh as he felt himself shrinking down just as he did back at the Pixie Kingdom. [color=CCCC22]"Here we go again,"[/color] he muttered to himself. He could sense himself starting to get a little more apathetic towards the weird things this realm threw at him. Maybe at some point, he would stop being surprised altogether.

Eventually the mini Bav stopped laughing, and Brutrumukk asked what the creature had found so funny in the first place. Jub considered explaining to the bugbear about the the Hideous Laughter spell, but got the sense that there was little point. Given that Brutrumukk's perception of events seemed incredibly warped by the alcohol, anything Jub tried to explain at this point would probably be lost in translation. 

And besides, what the mini Bav said in response turned out to be far more pressing.

[color=00746b]"Don't hurt me! Spare me! If you spare me, I'll...I'll give ya password! Password to Mirror! It take you to Carnival!"[/color]

[color=CCCC22]"Oh good, you can speak,"[/color] Jub replied, his voice a mixture of relief and dull surprise. [color=CCCC22]"Wasn't really sure what I was going to do with you if you couldn't speak."[/color] He was a little curious though. While they didn't need it right now, he assumed they'd need a way back to the Carnival when they finished with... well, whatever this was.

Before he could respond, however, Brutrumukk beat him to it, [color=brown]"Oh I definitely wanna 'ear that. Don't be shy. Tell us."[/color]

[color=CCCC22]"Err, yes! What he said,"[/color] Jub added. It seemed like the bugbear and he were on the same page again, for once.
