[PRE-SUMMONING]

[survivaltricks]

[Lupin has chosen to set up shop in the rage room because. . . things automatically fix themselves in here, lol. he's cleared out a rather large space, both to have room to draw the summoning sigil and to give Bon Bon room to be. . . Bon Bon]

[comment here if you also brought something fun to this summoning party!]

[THE ACTUAL SUMMONING]

[survivaltricks]

[TO BE DETERMINED]

[shortforever]

[He is here!]

Were we able to get the poprocks?

Re: [PRE-SUMMONING]

[leonheartedly]

[he brought his sparkling charm and sense of humor does that count?

But he will help clear the rest of the space]

[survivaltricks]

[holding up a small slip of poprocks. IT'S BLUE RASPBERRY]

Ready and waiting. Though if you ask me, he doesn't deserve them yet.

[survivaltricks]

[YES THAT COUNTS]

[a little tense, because he's not sure how this will go, but CERTAINLY Bon Bon would not try to blow up the team that devoted themselves to him--]

Are you ready?

[leonheartedly]

[IN THEIR OWN BARN, NO LESS - ]

As ready as I can be. Are you?

[survivaltricks]

Mmm.

[a crooked smile, but there's some forced confidence around the edges]

We've managed to speak to him before. This shouldn't go too badly.

[readytosqueeze]

[ here he is and with...

well he's got like. one particularly nice looking shell he's found while swimming in the ocean. ]

[survivaltricks]

[does Bon Bon like shells? I suppose we'll find out!1]

You've never met Bon Bon before, have you?

[leonheartedly]

It'll be fine. This is just a . . . "friendly" chat, that's all.

[readytosqueeze]

[ who doesn't like a nice freshly acquired shell???¿ ]

Nah. Could we end up fightin'?

[survivaltricks]

Friendly and non-threatening.

[emphasis on "non-threatening"]

We just don't want him climbing out of our mouths anymore.

[shortforever]

Not yet, no. But we can use it to bargain if needed.

[survivaltricks]

[sweats]

I normally never say "no" to a fight, but in this case, I think we should try to avoid one.

[survivaltricks]

Or we can offer it up to calm him down if he gets fussy.

[readytosqueeze]

[ curious! ]

Why's that? 'm pretty sure we got a lot of muscle.

[leonheartedly]

Right. Which - I feel like is a fair thing to request.

[survivaltricks]

We do.

[and he sounds proud of that fact]

But also, Bon Bon is a bomb demon.

[survivaltricks]

Me too, but. . . you know.

[who knows what demons are thinking at any point in time]

[shortforever]

That too. Where'd you get that by the way?

[leonheartedly]

[he sighs, running a hand through his hair]

Yeah, I know.

[survivaltricks]

Red. It's one of his shop freebies.

[poprocks have no nutritional value]

[survivaltricks]

[claps a hand on his shoulder!]

Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained. At least if Bon Bon blows something up, it'll only be us.

[HA HA. . . HA]

[. . . HA. . .]

[leonheartedly]

[..............]

It'll be a blast.
