Notho es Dicta Lumine Luna

[pm] You're brave for posting about that in public. I'm pretending like I ain't heard a damn thing about it.

[pm] I am not brave, I am suffering, I have 247 unopened messages from various people asking me regarding those fucking frogs, and now I have Emilio threatening to investigate. I am in hell. That was a hail mary to answer those 247 unopened messages.

Would you like worms instead?

I do appreciate your offer, but I have more than enough worms under my hydrangeas. They've somehow learned the Lerner and Loewe Camelot score. I can't deal with more singing worms.

So, why are they saying that you're affiliated with the group? I mean I don't have any skin in the game, but their pretty insistant.

I don't pretend to understand the minds of people who got cursed to be frogs for too long these people. I simply know that they know that I know what they're really about, and now they're trying to recruit me.

There's a whole story behind this that you're not talking about.... I can feel it.

What? No. No story. But I will say do not engage if you can help it.

[pm] You would use raccoon more. How else will you teach them? [...] But how many of the people who speak dead languages need you to teach them things?

[pm] You really want me to teach these raccoons, don't you? [...] Point taken; we're usually the ones teaching people how to speak dead languages.

[pm] You would probably use it more than the ancient languages. There are more raccoons at your work than people speaking dead languages, apparently.

[pm] You underestimate how often I use Latin. And no, there's probably about equal ratio raccoons to dead-language speakers.

Nah, nah... you oughtta check it out if you got any kinda sweet tooth. Good stuff. De fudge is exceptional.

My survived work today snack stash is running low... Fudge? Any specific kind, or just a yes to everything that comes out of the place?

[pm] Maybe you should learn. Add it to the list of languages.

[pm] Some people think I don't speak enough living languages; too much ancient this and that. So sure, Raccoon sounds useful in my work, why the fuck not?

[pm] Aren't you there, working at their home as a teacher? You should teach them to trust me.

[pm] I teach people, not raccoons. Regrettably, I do not speak raccoon. How useless of me.

Well yeah... it's a chocolate shop.

[ user looks it up ]

[pm] They deserve the mistrust. I do not.

[pm] I never said I didn't trust you. They, however, do not know any better. Their silly little minds can't comprehend it.

[pm] Oh... Huh, yeah their pamphlets did have your name on it now that you mention.

[pm] Hey, uh, Rosie?? Can I call you Rosie? I'm going to politely request that you find the biggest rock and just let it roll over me like in Indiana Jones.

[pm] Oh sweetness, don't you worry. I'm not about to talk to a bunch of weirdos walking around ass out with shirts telling me to ask about frogs. I have some survival instincts.

[pm] No I'm begging you to ignore them completely. [...] [...] [...] If they say I am an expert in frogs, or affiliated with them in any way, it is NOT true. Clearly. I'm never gonna be able to listen to that Sondheim again, am I?

[pm] I have seen their faces. They are not cute. They are strange. And I do not trust them.

[pm] Well, yes, you've seen them in the vents in Rathelin, you've set a precedent, there is communal confusion and mistrust between you and the angry raccoon inhabitants.

Hey, um... Okay so this is far from the first time some local cult has come to my doorstep proselytizing their good word or whatever, but this is the first time I've had some pretty Aristophanes coded guys going full Winnie the Pooh in just t shirts that said Ask Me About Frog... Anyone know the deal here? I managed to pretend not to be home long enough that they gave up on asking me to... join? I'm assuming that's what they wanted.

NO. NO NO NO N
