“C’mon, I’m a Spinner!” She giggles in a chiding tone! “I don’t forget faces… especially not yours! You were swashbuckling all over the place that day! Like The Ballad of Light-Foot Tessere! Surely you’ve heard that one?”
You’re uh… not really up to speed on Spinnings, you shrug, still tense from the abduction. Why are you here, again?
“Ey! That’s no way ta’ address Miss Lutza!”
“Ey! She’s got a real good reason for it, bub!”
“Ey! She’s gettin’ to it, punk!”
“Boys,” Sighs the Spinner, her tail smacking against her seat, “Breathe, will ya?”
Cowed by the command, the Skogs set their sights on the floor in perfect, sheepish unison!
“Oh! Where are my manners?!” Lutza blinks, as if genuinely scandalized by her own behavior! “These three are Tiiro, Tiino, and Jopp, also known as The Tiito Triplets… my security detail.”
The Skogs give you a rehearsed bow.
“And this is my manager, Joplin.” The Durher adds as she glances over to the green-eyed Gnok with a loving grin! “Oh, what would I do without him…?”
“You humble me, Miss Lutza.” He swiftly replies before turning his hawk-like gaze on you, “My apologies for the peculiar circumstances leading up to this meeting, Mr. Peas, but in truth every precaution was needed to make this meeting possible. You see…”
He pauses, stealing a sidelong glance at his client, “Miss Lutza is in grave danger, and we humbly request your assistance in the matter.”
Grave how, exactly, you ask, sitting up in your chair! Like… death stuff?
“Precisely that.” Nods the manager as the security Skogs let their heads droop in grim reverence! “We have reason to believe that someone on this train intends to harm Miss Lutza… or worse.”
You know someone who might fit the bill, but something tells you they aren’t talking about Tzah-Tzie. Okay, you frown, but why choose me?
The question seeks to irk Joplin, but not enough for him to fully show it. “Indeed. My magical skills are considerable as you’ve already witnessed, and the Tiito Triplets are second-to-none in the realm of combat, but-”
“But whoever’s stalking me isn’t dumb…” Whines Lutza as she cradles her face in between her claws! “They know to keep their distance, especially when Joplin is hanging back… but you!” Her eyes light up as the last word leaves her lips! “They don’t know you! You could get the drop on ‘em!”
Sure, you smile weakly, but still… Why you? Why not some other schmuck? Lutza closes her amethyst eyes as a thoughtful expression forms on her face.
“... I have good intuition when it comes to good-hearted people,” She mutters, earning a trio of nods from her security detail, “I’m never wrong!”
