Domino's Big Brothers
GM01/13/2018
A month later, after that whole affair...
Halation's recovered quite a bit, and new facilities were constructed. You all should know, after all, you lead many of those projects. Fortunately, building a facility just means converting a room in the kingdom to something of use, so it wasn't too hard. I mean, look at it, you guys have a FANCY OFFICE FOR YOUR VIZIER, and a HOT SPRING, and A JAIL! And more!
And now, wouldn't you know it, you're at a kingdom meeting around your dinky little round table with the bowl of plastic fruit again. Good times.
Domino is pouring everyone some hot chocolate (while wearing her giant gauntlets) since it's especially cold today.
Solitaire has also recovered from his, um, damaged sternum. He breaks the silence with a quick "ahem, ahem," rustling some papers he's holding in his other hand.
"So it seems that a plague has broken out in the neighboring kingdom... which is quite a concern for a number of reasons, wouldn't you say?"
Slut the Rumored01/13/2018
Slot has, more or less, regained his senses in the month since everything has gone down. He's sitting at the table, taking a long drink from his mug of hot chocolate.
He looks at Domino, giving her a smile, "This is good hot chocolate!"
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
Dusk is cheery and joyous, clapping her hands, "We can have hot chocolate! Yay for Domino! Yay!"
Juno the Natural01/13/2018
Juno makes an agreeable noise, apparently preferring hot chocolate to plastic fruit! They do not seem to be giving Solitaire much attention.
GM01/13/2018
Domino nods professionally, like yes, I do make a damn good pot of hot chocolate.
Solitaire sighs. "Wouldn't it be bad if Halation were hit by that plague?"
Juno the Natural01/13/2018
Slowly, Juno sets their mug down, then very deliberately turns to look at Solitaire.
"Isn't that their problem they should deal with?"
Woah. Juno.
Slut the Rumored01/13/2018
"Do you think I could get more marshmallows?" Slot asks Domino.
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
"I guess that would be bad, huh!"
Primrose the Blessed01/13/2018
Primrose is busy being facedown at the table, mumbling something like "diseases are bad yeah".
GM01/13/2018
"Of course." And so Domino passes Slot a cup of mini marshmallows. It's a good thing your kingdom can afford this.
Solitaire, meanwhile, is at a loss. He should be used to this by now.
"Er... well, this is all true, but if it is not a concern, we can move on... Holiday Kingdom can take care of it themselves..."
Domino raises her head, a blank expression on her face.
"Isn't that the kingdom I was born and raised, stepfather? What of my brothers?"
He doesn't offer an answer, he's busily shuffling through his papers.
Slut the Rumored01/13/2018
Slot casually drops the marshmallows into his cup, "Well, what kind of plague is it? If it's just coughing and sneezing, we can deal with that easily, can't we?"
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
"I don't mind going out to help!"
Juno the Natural01/13/2018
Tilting their head, Juno hesitates. Frowning. "The last time we went out of our way for other kingdoms didn't go well though?"
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
"It was okay!" Dusk nods. "Cinderelli was really nice and we did help Early, too. And we made new friends!"
Juno the Natural01/13/2018
"That was after we got kidnapped, and they weren't the Kingdom's court either..." Juno mumbles, but is more or less resigned.
Climate Change01/13/2018
Clima gives a shrug, preoccupied with his hot cocoa. It is so hot. He loves this.
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
"Well, you can't help kidnapping sometimes! And if we gotta take care of Domino's brothers, well, sounds like fun! Exploring is fun!"
Slut the Rumored01/13/2018
"And if we get sick, that means more hot chocolate."
This is flawless logic.
Juno the Natural01/13/2018
"But what if luring us there to help will make us sick and that turns out to be some great plan of someone out to get us... again!" Juno retorts! IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT RETORT.
GM01/13/2018
"What's this sudden turn of interest..." Solitaire grumbles. "And, on that note, Juno, Drakonic Drake, the ruler of B.B.F, is currently experiencing some riots in his largest population, City Royale. The Village of Umber is also creating its own small army to defend itself should he strike them with force.
It seems like very few are satisfied with his rule, and that his purchase of Halation's court had been in his own disgusting personal interest.
In other words, they're having a revolt."
Domino, meanwhile, considers other things, such as Slot's question.
"The plague should be something Chess can handle—he's a doctor. And Rummy is a professor at the academy, specializing in bio-science, so he should be fine. I wonder if you can punch the sick out of someone..."
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
"Do you punch yourself if you get sick?"
GM01/13/2018
Looks her right in the eyes.
"I haven't tried yet."
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
Looks her right back.
"Wow!"
Climate Change01/13/2018
Clima looks at Domino for a moment. Who the fuck are Chess and Rummy.
Slut the Rumored01/13/2018
"We have a doctor?"
Juno the Natural01/13/2018
Knowing they're going to lose this battle at this rate, Juno returns to sipping their hot chocolate sulkily.
GM01/13/2018
Solitaire points at Slot, GOOD POINT!!
"We do not have a doctor! Unless we consider Sulfur... Instead, we have a healthy group that can explore the labyrinth that neighbors Holiday Kingdom to retrieve THE CURE!"
He's very excited now that people are caring... but he composes himself.
"At the very least, Halation's court could gather the ingredients for the cure to Rummy or Chess, Domino's brothers, to create the Actual Cure. Being as everyone is ill, they could use the help. "
Solitaire sets the papers down.
"This is all I know. The rest will involve traveling to Holiday Kingdom—with protective gear that can prevent you from catching their plague—and gathering more information before entering the labyrinth."
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
"Well, okie dokie. Is Domino gonna come with us this time?"
GM01/13/2018
Domino slams her hands on the table, cracking it.
"Yes. Stepfather, I want to go with them. Our Ruler herself has spoken."
Solitaire immediately shakes his head."Of course not."
This begins a back and forth.
"I want to pursue my passion. You let my brothers pursue their passions."
"Yes, their passions were health and science. Your passion is punching."
"There is nothing wrong with this passion. My brothers would have nobody to help if I didn't punch people."
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
Dusk watches. 'o'
Climate Change01/13/2018

Slut the Rumored01/13/2018
Slot drinks from his mug.
GM01/13/2018
Domino stares at the table flatly.
And then,
she pouts, with sparkling eyes.
"Dad, please let me go see my big brothers..."
Climate Change01/13/2018
Clima looks to Dusk.
Who is this Dominsomething person again?
GM01/13/2018
Solitaire ALSO looks at Dusk, for different reasons.
"D-Dusk, what do you really think of this?"
Juno the Natural01/13/2018
It's Domino's attitude that makes Juno falter too, "...well, if it's a trip for Domino to see family, it... is okay, isn't it...?"
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
Dusk blinks. "She can go if she wants. I don't see why not."
GM01/13/2018
Domino is SO GLAD, even if it doesn't show on her super serious face very well. Solitaire sighs.
"Then, I guess, that is that. I believe Sulfur would have been a better option, but it is true that this is Domino's family..." He runs his hand thorugh his fluffy white hair. "If you want to get to Holiday Kingdom within a day, you should prepare to leave soon."
Juno the Natural01/13/2018
"Why can't we take Sulfur too?" Juno is confused.
GM01/13/2018
"I didn't know if additional people would make it more complicated, but if you would like to bring Sulfur, you may do that as well."
Slut the Rumored01/13/2018
"The more the merrier~ If we wanna do that."
Dusk the Best01/13/2018
Dusk claps her hands. "This will be fun, I'm sure of it. Domino! Domino's family! Helping people!"
GM01/13/2018
Solitaire can't help but look a little worried, but he forces a smile and nods anyway.
And so, you can finish up your hot chocolate and get started.
