 Pardon me, but I'd like to just put this out here...

[Minnie can be found sitting one some steps in Twilight Town, looking a tad despondent. Her Meow Wow is having a good time licking her shoes, which at this point she's opted to ignore.]

Back home, as Queen, I had many duties to attend to. Problems to fix, people to listen to, decisions to make... Now that I'm here, all of my responsibilities are gone. I can't help but feel a little useless.

Does anyone need any help? Or should I...

[There's a long pause here, as something is considered... something she's never had to do, considering she was born into royalty.]

... Should I get... a job?

Comments

[her_mouse_jesty]

[... Uh. Long pause as she tries to think this over.]

My talents... Hm.

Well... I... have some defensive magic... I've organized festivals...

[Except these things don't exactly translate to a civilian lifestyle.]

[lickedthat]

Planning festivals and parties can be a career, of course. [But in a town of this size? Event planner jobs may be a little hard to come by. No, maybe the other...]

... I'm not certain exactly how your magic works, but there might be a great deal of use for defensive magic in this town. If you can cast spells to keep the Nightmares away from certain areas or from homes, for example.

[He needs some books on magic. It's embarrassing to be so at a loss on the subject.]

[her_mouse_jesty]

[She brightens up a little!]

Oh, maybe I could do that! It would be so wonderful to help people! Defending those who can't defend themselves...

[lickedthat]

Exactly, your majesty. There are many people here who have no magic of their own.

[her_mouse_jesty]

I used to be one of them, for a while...

... And, you know, you don't have to keep calling me 'your majesty'.

[lickedthat]

Ah. Er. What do you prefer to be called?

[her_mouse_jesty]

How about my name? It's Minnie!

[followed up by a classic giggle.]

[lickedthat]

Well... if that's what you'd like, then. Minnie.

[her_mouse_jesty]

Now that's much better!

[lickedthat]

I'll keep it in mind. Now, about that plan to help with protective magic...

[her_mouse_jesty]

Oh, yes...

My best spell is with barriers! I can seal doors and nothing can get through!

[lickedthat]

How long can it last?

[her_mouse_jesty]

I've never timed it, but I'm very sure it can last a few hours...?

[lickedthat]

I see. It would need to be regularly renewed, then... perhaps that would be more useful for crisis situations?

It certainly helped during the attack by those larger creatures.

[her_mouse_jesty]

Thank you! But maybe it's time I tried to push my limits, and see how long I can do it before I have to stop...

[lickedthat]

I'd be very interested in knowing what you find out, Minnie.

[her_mouse_jesty]

And you shall be the first to know!

[He tips his hat and reaches toward the communicator to sign off.]
