Hmmm...

Okay boys, do we want to interrogate him, or do we just want him gone?

There doesn't seem to be too much to do, but I wonder if I can jump off the bean stalk and land on wart...

Are you including Pax in this question?

You still have Kommunists.

Keeping in mind that, if we interrogate him, that means a GREATER chance of finding someone else's ### to kick, and that we would more completely save the Mushroom Kingdom, meaning we wouldn't have to expend effort to come back here.

(I think that covers the bases nicely, don't you?)

We need to find the princess!

If you ask me, Punisher ate her.

i.e. I'm sorry, but she's in another castle.

How am I going to get laid now?!?!?!

Okay, so that's one vote for getting laid. Which, um, isn't entirely pertinent to the immediate situation.

Charlesx, TBB, SJ, Pax, interrogate? Destroy? Thoughts?

I called dibs on the bling damnit!

Ah well.

Hey, I distinctly said I took beans that hadn't been peed on!

I get the feeling that if we want to interrogate Wart, we better do it soon, since Bowser is on his way.

I will grab a hold of Wart's cape, ostensibly to wipe off my hands, but in reality to keep a hold on Wart. I don't want him going anywhere, whether on his own volition, or Bowsers. And if he does end up getting away, at least I get a cape out of the deal. (I'm not sure if this would be Body or Intelligence. But since they are the same number at the moment, I'll let that be the GM's call)

He has other bling than the Hypno Crown!

You gave it the ol' college try. I blame charlesX for peeing on the initial bean, thus infusing the entire stalk with...essence...

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go scrub my brain.

Frog legs, I guess.

Pee is sterile. It's all good.


And Frog Legs aren't bling. Wart has a big pimpin' neckless as well.

(Although you've grasped the basics of my idea for interrogation.)

Yet. .............................

Okay, action: Interrogation Technique. (Schmooze + Knowledge of Cooking)

"Well, Wart, taking over the armies of the Koopa Domains, that is impressive. Indeed, not even the Mushroom Kingdom has been able to completely topple it. But, given the fact that you stated your Hypno Crown came from elsewhere, it's clear that you aren't working alone. So you are going to tell us who you are working for, and what your plans are. Or you can choose to be uncooperative. However, before you choose whether to spill or not, keep this in mind. I am, by trade and training, a cook. And furthermore, I am not unfamiliar with the biology of the frog, having taken several apart in various science classes. Where I am from, the Legs of amphibians such as yourself are considered a delicacy, and considering that I've never come across such a generous specimen as yourself, there are plenty of new dishes I'm willing to attempt. For example, what will happen to your skin when it's exposed to the flame? I am hoping it will become nice and crisp, a snack unto itself, not unlike Peking Duck. And in my world, there has never been a frog of sufficient size that the lesser used muscles surrounding the backbone and ribs were worth cooking. Frog tenderloin would be a culinary frontier that I would be willing to explore, as are frog ribs. Given the general omnivorous bent of frogs, I'm expecting it should cook up not unlike pork, especially if you do it low and slow.

And it won't end with you. Because where you see a Subconian Empire, I see a buffet line. We know of a great many angry Koopa who would be more than pleased to take vengeance upon your little attack. And I'm sure the Mushroom Kingdom would be more than willing to expand its holdings. And what of your soldiers? Clawgrip? I hail from the lands of the Chesapeake Bay. To me, Clawgrip is merely a staple of my Tidewater Diet. Triclyde? Mouser? Both unusual delicacies favored in the East Asian regions. FryGuy? Merely a means to better cook food. Birdo? Ha. Nothing more than a resource to me. I would become a Culinary Legend. While you and your precious SubCon would be nothing more than material to fertilize Mushrooms.

So what's it going to be, Wart?"

Pax, you might want to move Wart's face RIGHT next to some of the fire as I'm doing this.
