I must go read these wonderful beans then. Speaking of that expression, where the bricks did it come from? It makes no sense. XD
Wonderful. I have no idea.
I looked it up. Google says: It is believed that this phrase originated in ancient Greece, where people cast secret votes by putting white or black beans in a jar (a white bean indicated a positive vote and a black bean was negative).
Nice. Temptation is my favorite too. Hehe, the alchemist is just a guy trying to do his job, so he's pretty relatable.
Lol. Nice.
He is your character after all. This man has work to do.
It's becoming kind of a problem.
Well, more like Tigress' character I think. Back in the beginning, she played the role of Temptation and I played the role of Joy, but now we just share them since we know each others characters so well. Indeed. He's got a potion to do and not enough time to complete it, well, without his hammer.

I feel very educated.
Ah, I see. So literally spilling the beans means to show the votes. Very interesting. Same.

I see. Quite an addicting game, I see.
Oh, wow, I had forgotten! I thought you were Temptation. Very essential potion-making tool. Very versatile.
I guess. I also don't have much else to do with my time that's more productive. I'm either on here adding to my already high post count, or rereading books I read last summer.

It still doesn't make a lot of sense. It might have made it worse, actually.

That's alright. It's been a while. Indeed. A pestle and mortar isn't good enough for this alchemist.
"Shut up," Greed snapped at her. "No, she's right," Envy chuckled wryly. "I've seen four-year-olds draw better than that." "GIVE ME MY HAMMER!" the alchemist demanded again. "I'm telling you," Greed retorted through clenched teeth, seething. "I don't have your stupid hammer!" The alchemist scowled. "I know it was you! One of the workers saw you use it to put up those posters!" "Since when have I ever done manual labor like that myself?!" Greed threw his hands in the air, exasperated. "I had the servants do that! If you have a problem, take it up with them!" The older man looked as if he wanted to argue, but instead he snorted and stormed off. The heavy doors slammed behind him. "Stupid oaf," Greed said, rolling his eyes. Takes one to know one, Joy thought to herself. She bit back a smile. "Is she ready yet?" Greed demanded to his sister. "I want--" "Hands off, Romeo," Envy retorted, rolling her eyes. She came up behind Joy and tightened the straps holding her bodice together. "I'm nearly done here, but Father wants to see her first." "What for?" Greed asked. His eyes flitted back to Joy in a way that made her want to slap him. "He wants to know how she found this place--and who led her here." Envy tightened the straps with a harsh jerk. "He seems pretty steamed about it." Joy's mouth went dry.

Though it was exhausted, Temptation urged his horse to fly like the wind toward the quarry. Froth flew from the animal's mouth as it ran, and it heaved for breath. By the cover of the trees by the road--so that he wouldn't be spotted--he rode swiftly away from the estate, soon arriving at the secret plateau where the slaves were mining. He didn't know how much time he had until someone realized what had happened and went after him. He had to work quickly and quietly. He tied the exhausted horse to a tree within the cover of the forest before venting out into the open. Walking casually in his disguise, he nodded at the few guards standing at the front together. One of them gave him a curious look and called; "What are you doing here? It's not your shift yet!" "I heard someone had set the barn on fire back there!" he replied.
And two year olds, GET 'IM ENVY!
Poor guy just wants his hammer back. X'D
Takes one to know one! (o'vv'o)
*Greed gets greedy with Joy* *deafening whistle shrieks out* Um the character protection gang says no boi.
Good pony this is most important. Just a little while longer! OmO Yes it must rest in the shade. U.U
