My bunny slippers just ran for cover

[will_you_still]

Morgan doesn't strictly need to sleep. Even if she didn't want to put up with the annoyance of constantly having a caffeine buzz and having to ask for coffee on almost every summon, there are naps. Naps can keep a daeva going for quite a long time.

But there's something unutterably pleasant about curling up in a proper bed in pajamas and just sleeping. And then waking up and getting breakfast in those pajamas. So she does that, because immortality's a long unpleasant time if you don't enjoy the little things every now and then. Like adorable bunny slippers and soft pajamas and sleeping in.

She's midway through a fruity salad thing that counts as the standard fairy breakfast when she feels the summon. Showing up to a summon in pajamas? Eh. If they're proper summoners she bets they've seen worse, and she doesn't particularly care if they think she's unprofessional.

She puts her spoon down and accepts the summon.

Yes, it is. And you'll get rich.

[will_you_still]

Yep! Countries are expensive, mind, so I'm going to be spending the money as much as I make it, and it likely won't even be enough so I'll be looking for tinkers and the like to make some kind of go-to industry for Namibia, but it's still nice.

[mxglam]

Good luck with that.

[will_you_still]

Thank you. We'll see how I do. Whatever it is, it's probably better than mass murder, but that's not a very high bar.

[mxglam]

No, it isn't hahahaha

[will_you_still]

Morgan's regime: better than mass murder. It's a pity this won't be at all democratic, because I'm sure that's a winning slogan.

[mxglam]

Yeah, really hard to beat.

[will_you_still]

Clearly!

In all seriousness though, I don't know what my title as warlord of the territory would be. I don't actually want to call myself a warlord, and I don't exactly want to go with, say, 'dictator' or the like. I'm sure I'll figure something out eventually, but still.

She could call herself a queen for the hilarity of being the fairy queen, but that's a bit too on-the-nose for her taste. Her name already kind of pushes it a bit if someone knows their Arthurian Mythology.

[mxglam]

The wings do, too.

How about supreme leader? Great empress? Queen?

[will_you_still]

Supreme leader sounds too - I dunno, like I am running a dictatorship. Empress isn't really appropriate, I don't want to make an empire, and queen's a bit. I mean. I have wings. I'd rather not be labelled the fairy queen, sounds like I'm a crazy person.

[mxglam]

Not to mention we already have one of those.

[will_you_still]

That, too.

[mxglam]

We wouldn't want you to be confused with her.

[will_you_still]

Definitely not. I am much nicer than she is. Also less crazy.

[mxglam]

Debatable.

[will_you_still]

Hey, I'll have you know that my crazy is perfectly convenient and very well managed!

[mxglam]

Yes, as has been determined XD

[will_you_still]

So, what's being in the Wards actually like? You are my eye on the inside, etc. Should I be prioritizing making a Wards-alternative more?

[mxglam]

Um... I don't know what to compare it to, really? There's the break room and we have to go on scheduled patrols and sometimes man the console and we have quarters if we live here and just these rooms made of moving walls if we don't.

[will_you_still]

Rooms made of moving walls?

[mxglam]

The upper floor with the dome and the break room has all these walls you can move around to make rooms for people.

[will_you_still]

Huh. Fancy. Okay then.

[mxglam]

I'll give them that, stuff here's pretty fancy.

[will_you_still]

They should use that as a marketing tactic. 'Join us, we are super fancy.'

[mxglam]

I think they kinda do. I'm sure one of the pitches for new tinkers is getting access to other tinkers' stuff.
