Dear me, are you assuming that the non-elf ghost has the ability to fathom your meaning? I thought you elves thought other races of lesser ability?
Good thing the ghost doesn’t feed off of self-satisfaction or the elves wouldn’t stand a chance.
Yeah, but on the other ectopod there wouldn’t exactly be any problem then. Skippy would be just some massive fat blob of ghost in the central square getting immense off all the infinitely renewable smug the elves generate.
Ah the comptroller, when their job is done well no one notices. And when done poorly, everyone notices but has no idea what went wrong or whose fault it is…
She’s in complete comptrol.
Well, financial service professionals in general get this treatment, not just comptrollers. So few can tell the difference between an accountant, a financier, a banker, an economist, or an actuary. Which is akin to not being able to tell the difference between a car mechanic, an automotive engineer, a taxi driver, a civil engineer, and a city planner.
*clears throat*
Don’t overestimate how easily people keep those ones clear.
You mean, how people keep throats clear?
Both!
Fascinating. So:
– One notes what’s wrong and tries to fix it
– One builds it
– One moves it around
– One plans parts of the whole thing
– One plans the whole thing
Is that about right?
It means, Skippy, that the all-you-can-eat salad bar is CLOSED. You aren’t going to find a single pointy-eared pinhead in this city that gives a solitary sheep toss about you anymore.
Clearly the lessons in not being embarrassed worked.
Is that a for-real, for-permanent tattoo? Seems a bit extreme, for what is going to be one converation with a ghost.
On the plus side, Rusty looks to be a decent artist.
That could be a good sideline for Rusty in future, assuming he doesn’t eat the tattoo-gun once he’s finished here… And assuming that he can draw something other than his own face…
Of course that’s not his face but that of his girlfriend.
Was gonna say, “Could just be marker”, but on closer examination, that’s definitely not a marker. Well hey, if magic can cure lung cancer (per Princess rationalizing her smoking habit in Level 1), it can surely remove a little skin graffiti, right? Assuming she doesn’t like it.
Now I kinda want a tattoo of Rusty…
I’m excited to hear about how your power over auditing for the municipal area and businesses within it will save the day
She threatens to audit anyone who feeds the ghost
Alternatively, tax credit to everyone who resists the ghost
She sent an e-mail to all workers to justify their emotions…
Alyssa’s giving off “elf Maddie” vibes here.
That’s odd, he doesn’t look like the ghost of a troll….
