They didn't tell you?? I bet they're filling your heads with propoganda. She is a MURDERER!! She brutally, ruthlessly, without remorse, murdered the child of the Great Wolf King!

[wants_the_phd]

Were she and the Wolf King not always enemies?

[wooliefrand]

I do not know. Probably. Because she has always been a being of trash and SHOULD die, yes???

[wants_the_phd]

[SHRUG?]

Do you know why she killed the Wolf King's son? Did she get something out of it?

[wooliefrand]

[looks at with his confused snake face like ????]


Because she is an evil, selfish witch.

[wants_the_phd]

Well, if everyone knew that about her from the beginning, it wouldn't have been a betrayal, would it?

[wooliefrand]

[,,,,,,]


YES, WELL. Of course! But clearly she had been plotting it for some time, so. My point stands!

[wants_the_phd]

How did she do it?

Also, did he have a name that I can call him instead of "Wolf King's son?" He's a character in our play so it would be nice to know.

[wooliefrand]

[at that, the snake shrinks back, frowning--more to himself than anyone else]

I. . .we do not know. Their names--most of names, are missing.

I'm sure it's HER doing as well. That and, it was before my time, so. . .

[wants_the_phd]

Oh, really?

How long have you been stuck here—?

[—She almost called him "Little Guy". He's so cute oh no]

[wooliefrand]

[HE IS WISE AND POWERFUL HOW DARE YOU (he has a very childlike voice. hm.)

But he coils back up]

Long enough.

I've answered enough questions though, sheep. Now you will answer one of mine! What is the purpose of this little activity you all are putting together? Mockery? Manipulation? Something more sinister. . .?

[wants_the_phd]

Oh, sure.

We're doing this because we want a nice bathroom. ✨

[wooliefrand]

Come again?

[wants_the_phd]

We all live in a barn. It doesn't have particularly good amenities, so whenever we want to improve our living situation at all, Blossom gives us some weird task to do in exchange for ensorcelling up some renovations for us. I don't know how it works, so don't ask me. But I guess the thing we have to do to get a nice bathroom installed is put on a theatrical production.

One of the people on my team has gotten particularly into it. He wrote a script about Blossom's relationship with the Wolf King's son and his subsequent death. Murder? —But unfortunately for us, we're really struggling with some of the details, because it's not like she's going to tell us, you know?

So if there's anything you'd like the rest of us sheep to know about Blossom and the Wolf King —or even about yourself— now's your chance. Because she's not telling us shit, and none of us know what we're even doing here or where we even are.

[wooliefrand]

W. . .why do you all put up with her???? [HE ASSUMED SHE WAS BRAINWASHING THEM. IS SHE. IS SHE NOT????]


I--am not at liberty to give too much information freely. And I would never put my minions at risk by saying something I shouldn't.

But know this! Blossom WILL fall at my hands!

[a beat]

My coils!!

[wants_the_phd]

[Laughs]

We put up with her because we have literally no alternative. We can't even kill her because her soul just jumps into another body. If you think you can take her down and liberate us all, I'll be rooting for you!

[wooliefrand]

Well, she IS a coward. . .! [huffs!!!]

If your flattery is genuine you should consider defecting, break away from your wretched Flock! I'm sure the King will reward you greatly once I bring him Blossom's head.

[wants_the_phd]

Really?

[genuinely:]

How do I defect?

[wooliefrand]

Kahaha! You don't even know that?!

[pauses. he really doesn't know how either,,,]

Well! You have to--break Blossom's hold on you, pull away from that wretched herd mentality! But the magic is strong, I suppose.

[wants_the_phd]

Yeah, well, I can try. It's not like anyone actually likes Blossom. We'd take her down ourselves, if we could.

And I'm not even attached to "my flock", either. I don't even know these people.

[and some of them actively scare the shit out of her.]

[wooliefrand]

I would advise murdering them all but given the fate of my last minion that was so gung-ho, I assume that would not be wise.

[wants_the_phd]

[oh yeah she heard about the Patches Incident]

Yeah, unfortunately, I can't help you there. Everyone here can kick my ass.

[SIGH!]

Would it be okay if I asked you a few more questions? You don't have to answer any, if you need to keep some things confidential. Again, my aim here is script material. I'm not trying to compromise anyone's safety except Blossom's.

[wooliefrand]

Hmph. Since you asked so kindly, you may proceed.

[wants_the_phd]

Thanks.

Real quick, I'd like to ask you about some of the other characters that are in the play, and if you can tell me anything interesting about them.

Do you know someone named Red?

[wooliefrand]

That is the weird sheep that runs the storefront, yes? I know nothing else of him.
