Mae sat at the head of the table. “So, we can sing a little karaoke night, I’m sure Owain would love that.”
“What?”
“And- and it’ll be very fun!” Mae said cheerfully, ignoring Owain.
Owain stared at Mae. “Is that a decree?”
“Yes.”
“Ah.”
Nom added, “I hereby ask the queen to make Owain sing ‘Hakuna Matata’?”
The rest of Blue Kingdom stifled their laughter.
“Yes to that as well.”
Continuing to hold eye contact with Mae, Owain finally turned to Nom. “Th- thank you for that Nom. That was- so very kind of you.”
Shandrea dropped a note on the desk with an extra suggestion as Nom smugly replied, “You’re welcome.”
“Thank you as well, your majesty.”
If they could see Owain's face right now, it would betray absolute hatred.
~~
“Sooo, can we commit murder?”
“Fiiine, you can commit murder.”
“YAY!”
~~
“We kill Nominalgravy!”
Nom fended off Mae’s attack again, and stabbed her through the chest quickly. “No, you don’t kill Nominalgravy.”
Mae jolted up in her bed as she respawned, and leapt off. “WE KILL NOMINALGRAVY!!!”

“I will choke the very light from your- wait what are you doing WHY ARE THE LIGHTS ON- HEY STOP THAT!” The Creaking King yelped. The lights turned on.
Scott glanced around the room. Everyone was around the room, and the Creaking King was in front of him at the moment, though he jumped back.
Apo floated in creative at the side of the room. “I just needed to see something, sorry.”
Meanwhile, Cam squinted at the Creaking King. “Are you… in pajamas?”
At those words, everyone whipped around to look at the king, who was, in fact, in light clothing reminiscent of pajamas.
“No… okay you came here in the middle of the night I was ASLEEP couldn’t you have waited?! How am I supposed to be threatening like this?!?!?!” the Creaking King lamented.
“This just feels a bit silly,” Katie remarked quietly.
“I HEARD THAT!”
~~
“Yeah, I pissed off God too many times and got sent to hell, no big deal.”
“...and how did you do that?”
“I didn’t farkle enough.”
“You know, that makes complete and utter sense.”

“I was just explaining how knighthood works to Scott a bit ago, actually,” Owain explained, gesturing around.
Nom glanced up. “Wait, is that Scott?”
Owain followed his gaze. “What the heck- okay that’s creepy,” he commented as the flower mage slooowly floated down towards them.
“Mary Poppins!” Nom chirped.
“Hi! What was that about Mary Poppins?” Scott questioned.
“Okay, so basically I was discussing how I told you about knighthood, and then you just fell down from the sky like I summoned you,” Owain laughed. “It was sort of terrifying, not going to lie.”
Scott nodded understandingly. “Ohh, okay. I was just coming over here to give you your pickaxe, I got it enchanted for you.” He held out the diamond pickaxe, and Owain made to grab it.
Only for Nom to snatch it and log off.
Pickup priority.
Owain stared at the place for all of two seconds before switching to creative mode, lunging forwards, and digging a square hole[help I can’t see these two words the same after past life] down.
Failing to hold in his laughter, it echoed down the hole as Scott nearly collapsed. Owain barely noticed, too busy digging until Nom logged back on and crashed down, screaming.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-”
“Okay, now I’m getting yelled at for mod abuse, this is what I get,” Owain mumbled to himself, depressed.
~~
“Okay, this is just- no,” Katie grumbled, sopping wet.
Kitty eyed her for a second, before swiping her off the bridge again.
“HEY- NOOOOOOoooooo.....”
Her voice trailed off as she fell again.
