Bacon examined himself in the mirror. No to the blue hair, yes to the bacon stache, he decided. His hair returned to its natural brown.

 

"Well," said Nogard. "I suppose I ought to speak with the Great Wizard's lawyer, right?"

How badly does he want this?

"That's a good question," said Bacon. "Aren't you supposed to be with Nogard?"

 

"Death?" remarked Bacon. "I don't think that's very likely!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Even considering all that, I still don't know where Moni is. So we can't possibly steal Endings from her."

You are rebelling against the codes laid down by Silence himself, said the Ennuller severely. Your actions threaten the stability of the Thread. Renounce your deviations at once, or we will be forced to take action against you.

This is an internal affair. Do not trouble yourself.

 

"Okay, fine. How about diplomatic negotiations? You know, at swordpoint?"

Silence be cursed! Until you bloody learn that bloody Narrators are a threat to everyone, I'll never yield. I fight for one who seeks to restore balance to the Thread, curbing its chaos.

Platypus' Luxblade extended into a pole and he vaulted over the wall, relentlessly continuing the attack.

"Wonderful! I see you got my paperwork! Do you want to take it from here, or do you want my help?"

Platypus slowed down his attack so that he knew the Ennuller could keep up, just in case the Ennuller from the Wall didn't want his help anymore.

I barely even beat up Rond, and Thaidakar was distracted fighting Desolation. And that was a long time ago. Besides, when did you promise to help?

Platypus looked on curiously, halting his attack.

Platypus spoke to Bacon. "Yeah. I'm ok with Moni having Endings, but I would trust very few others with it."

"Like Kilometers! Love that guy, I'll need to get my Author to bring him back up!"

Moni is one of Nameless' characters.

Platypus cut through the dome with his Blades.

did he cut through the dome or halt? I'm confused.

"Alright. Thank you... uh... Mr. Ennuller. I'll go do... something then."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Even considering all that, I still don't know where Moni is. So we can't possibly steal Endings from her."

"Don't forget about this Bacon. If you try to take Endings, I would do pretty much anything in my power to stop you. Speaking of which..."

Platypus pulled out Clemency. I've been meaning to try this. He wrote a simple command in the air: The ground turns to sand.

"Yes . . . but we also try to be nice and help those in need. Well, I do." She glared at Hacob, and the tap-dancing Sandwich disappeared, once again replaced by a normal sandwich.

"Yeah, and you're lame!" The sandwich started tap dancing, then split up and started a conga line down Tam's arm.

he halted, then cut through the dome.

Platypus was confused. The Ennullers at the Wall were literally the ones that kept the Narrators in, and restricted the chaos. As a Being of Order - he paused to look meaningfully at Subversion - he appreciated it.

"First of all, we're called Narrators, not mages, Mr. DnD. hehe Secondly, we can and do help everyone, and we've always been able to." She Narrated a really good ham sandwich for him, as well.

Kion bites into the sandwich, nodding in gratitude. “Thank you. You’re called Narrators? Does that make your magic Narration?” 
*inexplicable cackling* Also I might rename the mages. Eventually. 

3 minutes ago, Immortal Platypus said:

Hacob appeared next to Tam. "We help people? Only sometimes." The sandwich disappeared. "Mostly we're pretty goofy, but Tam is being too serious." The sandwich reappeared on the other dude's head, then started tap dancing. "We're the things that make TLT so wonderfully chaotic!"

Kion doesn’t jump this time, which is progress. But he does bite his tongue when the sandwich disappears. “TLT, DnD? What are these acronyms for?” 

4 minutes ago, xinoehp512 said:

"Death?" remarked Bacon. "I don't think that's very likely!"

“I suppose you also lack a Render? Is floating bundle of murderous, relentless telekinesis not ringing any bells?” 

5 minutes ago, Through The Living Glass said:

"Yes . . . but we also try to be nice and help those in need. Well, I do." She glared at Hacob, and the tap-dancing Sandwich disappeared, once again replaced by a normal sandwich.

Kion goes back to eating the sandwich, wary of it dissipating again. “That’s good. Too many mages are selfish and won’t use what time they do have to help others.” 
Alright, it’s eleven, so I’m going to sleep. Good night.”

The Enuller formed a fist of darkness outside the barrier, punching Platypus.

The mustache vanished as soon as Subversion noticed it. "Yes, you're getting the hang of it." Subversion rubbed her lip, eyes slightly narrowed, and Faunus suddenly noticed that she had an annoying hangnail. "And yes, you can Narrate people into existence. Although it's hard to make their personality turn out exactly how you want it, you can always just directly Narrate them."

Faunus hissed at the suddenly annoying hangnail, and had gone to rip it off when she paused, I’m a Narrator, I can just will it way. And she did just that, the hangnail disappearing. Smiling to herself, clearly pleased at this new development, the young woman made her once free waist length strawberry blonde hair weave itself into a braid.

“Thank you.” She said to Subversion with a smile, “For answering my questions and helping me.”

It missed. Platypus was very good at dodging. He would also recommend that the Ennuller focus on the Ennuller from the Wall, or he would probably not like the results.

The Narrators are contained as they are. Do you suppose you can do a better job than the very founder of our order?

Beosta faltered. What if he was telling the truth? What if Cricket really was... 

No! No. You can't think like that. You can't think like that!  She stepped back, took a deep breath, and twisted a couple strands of her hair. "You're going to have to be more specific, I'm afraid."

"A nice slight red hue might look quite handsome," Lady Bug suggested. Bacon's hair turned slightly darker and slightly redder.

this is Perseus talking to Bacon about Moni.

You are inviting disaster into the Thread. Silence is too old, and still thinks Narrators trustworthy. Contained? Ha! Look at that idiot Bacon the Bard.

"I've already told you. He's dangerous." The hunter grinned at Beosta's expression. "When he dooms the Thread, I hope you know it's your fault."

Cricket wandered over to Shoe and Beosta, looking down at the hunter. "Shoe? Beosta? What's going on?"

Yes, of course I remember the duel. I remember more of dueling the weird almost-Nameless mostly, but yes I remember it. And you could've helped, it's not like I stopped you.

"Yeah, but Kilometers is special. He's completely immune to Narration, remember? There was a whole plot about it."

Yes, but I didn't have time! Although that part wasn't exactly your fault.

"Well, he just got attached to an Author that agreed to protect him from Narration. Technically, you could say that I have the same protection, just for different reasons."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Even considering all that, I still don't know where Moni is. So we can't possibly steal Endings from her."

Moni opened her eyes and saw words. Her words, to be precise. Everything around her, from the chair in the corner to the TV sitting in front of the sofa, was made only of words. She blinked, numb and unfeeling, for you could not feel words.

Unreality reasserted itself, and she saw her surroundings as normal again. She slowly got to her feet, head throbbing in pain, and walked into the kitchen of Nameless's house to make some coffee. Next time I go into my Author's mind, I'll be a little more careful.

I imagine Silence knew better than most the exact trustworthiness of Narrators. Which, as you know, is why they are all contained within the Thread.

Xanine smiled. "The monks screamed as they died. I killed the old one, you know, Navis? He begged me to spare the children."

your Ennuller text isn't bolded.

Platypus was very tempted to point out that Bacon was still contained in TLT, and that Narrators (at least some of them) were usually trustworthy.
