Dorilys is normally very careful about using her luck powers. Because if she uses it carelessly, it could be really bad. And that sounds like a rather subtle change, doesn’t it?
I am gonna laugh if the way the defenders figure out what is going on is that the Princess stops smoking.
Also, the formerly Wight Knight was being very open about the workshop being an important place to defend. Odd info to give out.
I wonder if there’s a spy in that group that the Princess knows about?
Of course not, you are being volunteered.
Just remember, when there’s a “volunteers, step forward”-kind of situation, it’s good practice to be among those who take a step back.
Actually, not even then. You do know the story of Benkei, don’t you? Not to mention every bridge troll that’s ever existed.
Being a bridge guard lasts exactly as long as it takes for the narrative to demand someone on the opposite side of the conflict to cross that bridge. Then it’s not a question of if you will die, but how.
I wonder if the Viscount is intentionally being a bit dim, to keep the bot certain of its superiority.
Also, the bot seemed to be very certain that the castle’s defenders are quite weak, and now all of a sudden it’s a delicate situation against clever foes? I don’t think the rust monster is responsible to that change.

She’s not just smiling, she’s *cheerful*.
So much for subtle effects.
She did just get promoted, along with some praise from her boss. That would put a spring in most anyone’s step.
Yet another cunning plan from the enemy. Like that ever works. Plot amor is very strong.
Madeline DID die.
She got better!
So did Grinner. Not to mention that dwarf that Cube ate. TWICE.
Thanks for being early!
Did he alter Dorilys’s good luck to bad luck? That would change the odds. To misquote, “the gods of luck do roll dice.”

Dorilys is a cleric of luck. Not good luck. Not bad luck. Luck.
Remember that her reaction to being turned green with the rest of her party was that their luck could have been worse.
I suspect she’s too happy to have good judgment.
(Woah what the hell, my random profile square changed to purple?)
Still waiting for the missing arm to make a dramatic reappearance.
Doesn’t Derek have it?
MY WORD
I asked chatGPt and it told me that being volunteered by an automaton was actually a good thing….

Those people were hired to defend. Telling them what is crucial is important.
*SPOILER*
I would love if it’s Kit who notices the changes in Presti. “It’s nothing special, your Highness…a mother just…knows!”
Oh ye foolish bucket of bolts, and not the guiding kind. Don’t you know that pride is positively correlated with a fall?
I wonder if he mistakenly used the Python on himself without realizing it.
If it can make a gibbering mouther intelligible and loquacious, it can make a humble genius into a arrogant dunce.
Don’t you find it ironic that robots always speak of not having emotions, which makes them superior which in turn causes the emotion of pride?
Nobby could have warned Hobkin about this. You never, ever volunteer.
Of course not, you are being volunteered.
Just remember, when there’s a “volunteers, step forward”-kind of situation, it’s good practice to be among those who take a step back.
Nobby always takes two steps back.
Only volunteer to guarding bridges.
Actually, not even then. You do know the story of Benkei, don’t you? Not to mention every bridge troll that’s ever existed.

Well, Nobby doesn’t make sure nobody crosses the bridge; He makes sure no one steals it.

Face it, Hopkin. Your job is going to be replaced by automation one way or another.
Tin can is subtle
Hopkin hopes to restore pride

Oh no, Miss Fortune is about to smile upon someone!
Miss Happ.
Her real, true surname

For my poor haiku
Meter is an issue.
(It’s for the line, for the line!)
Happy Happ.
It happens.
