So, this is something I whipped up. It is not an official part of War of the Wheel by any means, but it does take place between the most recent chapter (Chapter 20) and the next time we see this characters (Chapter ? no sense in giving anything away!)

Trigger Warning


Daneera's Poem

The poem is very good, by the way.

Slow on the uptake as I am, it took me until about the next-to-last stanza to realize what it was setting up for. Very well played, sir!

Also, it makes so much sense for Daneera to write this poem. After all, she knows that it's not easy being green.

In many ways, Daneera is our Kermit...

:wha:

:huh:

Well, in those two ways, anyway.

Well, to the extent that she clearly wanted to throttle Denner when she met him, you could say that she has a crush on a pig, too.

(Okay, that one was a stretch. Sorry, Denner.)

A stretch indeed, but I laughed.

True.

Thank you, thank you.

Raven and I will make our Vaudeville debut at the Mainstrike Hotel and Casino later this month. Apparently their last act disappeared suddenly, so we're getting our chance at the big time.

It's going to be very exciting. The only thing we can't decide on is the billing. Orcish maintains it should be "OrcishLibrarian and RavenoftheBlack," because it's alphabetical. I say it should be "The wonderful, glorious, magnificent and indomitable RavenoftheBlack! (and friend.) because it's vastly better. I even told him we could compromise and drop one adjective, but orcs are stubborn, you know...

:paranoid:

I like the way it sounds, but I worry that it won't fit on the marquee.

On the plus side, you should see the deal I can get on straw boater hats by buying in bulk. And I hear you may already have a friend who can loan you a cane. Now we just need striped jackets.

Yeah, but he'll probably want to open for us, and we can't let that happen. Remember that time in the Catskills?

:shudder:

The place was dead after that...

I don't think that Kiwanis club will ever recover.

A lot of publicity, though, and you know what they say about that.

I'm actually having a very funny mental image of Raiker Venn being really annoyed at having to rhyme "Kiwanis," and that being the trigger for all this.

Oh god. This. Just this. The thread that was initially a poem has devolved to you two doing a vaudeville routine about a vaudeville routine. This is the most hilarious thread I have seen in my life.

Thanks! Try the veal, and please, tip your waitresses. Remember, that have to put up with us every night!
