Chapter: 1a: two smart idiots

  ( a hooded figure lays unconscious on a 12 x 12 foot dimly-lit carved Stone room)

  ...*nnnrr*...

  ( he shakily gets up)

  ....*eerrf*.

  (He begins rubbing his head)

  Feels like my head was shoved in a wood chipper....

  ( looks around)

  ... Where the fuck am I?.....

  ( a small winged female in a one piece floats in)

  ... A tiny winged humanoid.... I wonder what it tastes like.

  [ the fariy] what?

  [the guy] nothing, I think I'm hungry.

  [ the fairy]oh, allow me to get you something master.

  [ the guy]...master?... I just met her- I mean you,.. It's hard to think on an empty stomach, and a headache.... The point was don't immediately call someone that;... After being beaten down and or having your Wings ripped off, that's another story.

  [ the fairy]excuse-me?

  [The guy] never you mind,

  ( he lays back down)

  I'm pretty much useless until.........UNtil food is in my stomach.

  [ the fairy]...

  ( turns back the way she came)

  ysh,inewthtnewburndngnmstrswerswerstrng,btthsgusjstbizr.{yeesh, i knew that dungeon masters were strange, but this guy's just bizzare.}

  (15 minutes later)

  [the man laying on the ground].........*mmmmmmrrrrrrrrrrg*........

  (he Chomps on a passing cricket)

  [theman]...... Tastes like pus....

  ( fairy floats in somehow holding a rabbit just off the ground)

  [the fairy]here is some food Master!

  ( she drops it in front of him)

  ( he just eats it like a f****** snake, starting with the head)

  ...*mmmmh*..

  [the man].mh?.... What the bitch is this?........... That explains where I am... It also reveals I can do somthing.

  [the man]........... I don't know what bothers me more, the fact that im a glass Cannon in a way,... or that I'm naked underneath this thing.

  ( he touched "dungeon control" on the screen)

  [the man] so if a text is red that means it's an umbrella term.

  ( Taps the two blue texts)

  [ the man]...... Did I just eat a live rabbit.

  [ the fairy] yes..... I wasn't expecting you to eat it whole..... Or even without skinning it.

  [ the man]...... Remind me later to cut my stomach open, don't want Rapunzel syndrome...... I forgot to ask, who the hell are you?

  [ the fairy] Santa Maria Liana Mavis Esquire, your newly appointed dungeon Fairy

  ( she bows in mid-air)

  [ the man]... YYeah,... I'm not calling you that.... Now your name is tink.

  [ Tink]WHAT,WHAT?!NONONONO!

  [tink]NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

  (she curls up almost crying)

  [tink] my beautiful name.

  [ the man]..... Your name isn't the only thing to worry about... You seem to be almost useless for anything besides a living encyclopedia about Dungeons....

  ( stifled laughter)....

  [tink]IT'S NOT FUNNY!

  [ the man]... Yes it is, I have that much power over you,

  ( laughs until the sobbing dies down)

  [the man]....................... I wonder..

  ( activates: bestow skill{ Target: tink})

  [the man].......... No,..... no,..... no,....... It seems like I can only bestow skills I already have............

  [ Tink] wha?( she looks at her status screen again)

  [tink] whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?

  [ tink].......

  ( she gets up all in his face, literally her whole body an inch away from his face)

  quick-tell-me-your-skills!

  [ the man] abilities: dungeon control , analysis: visible, illusion, regenerate: others , bestow skill

  passive abilities: chemical knowledge: novice, machine knowledge: novice, medical knowledge: novice

  [ Tink] how is this possible dungeon Lords are born with only one ability!..... Wait,... What were you trying to give me?

  [ the man] just ones that would make you cry harder: whoring: adept, regurgitate, massage: therro, then I tried the ones I already had and that is why you have useful ones.

  [ tink]( only being able to make this face in response) (her jaw droped and started twitching in disbelef and descust)

  [ the man] ( laughs similar to how you'd expect a large rodent to laugh)

  [the man]that is a beautiful face of disgust.

  [tink].............................................................. You are SO lucky my only meaning of existence is to Aid you!

  [ the man]......( calmly) Could you give good comparison of our intended relationship?

  [tink] ( still a little perturbed)

  like gut Flora, but instead of aiding digestion, I was supposed to tell you what the rules were and how to do the things you're supposed to do.

  [theman]...mmhh,hmm,.. And after that?

  [tink] an extra pair of eyes in the ears, an alarm for intruders, and somebody to talk to.

  [ the man].... That's stupid,.... That is really stupid,... Your job could have been filled in by a book with a crude smiley face drawn on it.... Now after I gave you those skills you can actually help,.. hell, you already did

  [tink].( a little confused).. How so?

  [tm] by demonstrating that the acquiring of a knowledge-based ability is enough to gain the knowledge. Which leads me to believe that gaining the ability adds the knowledge on how to use it. Which means I can put information in people's heads,. oh this is going to be fun,.. But I digress,.. Would you kindly use illusion to turn yourself into a mirror,.. And before you ask the reasoning is one: I want to see, the extent of the skill, and two:..... I just want to see what I look like,... Ever since waking up here my body has not felt... Correct.

  [tink]....okaaaay....

  (she uses illusion to make herself look like a mirror)

  ( the guy takes off his robe in one fluid motion, revealing a thin body with a slight pudge, long legs, slender strong-looking arms ending with long fingers, and a thin face with darkbags under the eyes, all completely hairless except for the top of his head sporting disheveled looking short hair that seems to constantly be changing color)

  [tm]..... This is not me.
