Woot : One Day, One Deal (SM)

Gragdush, old buddy, old pal! What’s the deal here? I was just merrily going about my little heroic journey and your boys got all “spears and ropes” on me. I thought we had a deal! I slip silently past your guards into the mountain pass and you never find out I trespassed in your territory. Wasn’t that the agreement?

Huh? I was supposed to bring you some sort of “tribute”? Who told you that? Me? That doesn’t sound like me. Unless I was lying, then it totally sounds like me. HEY HEY HEY Tell your boys to watch it with the “sharp-sharps”, will you?!

Oh, wait a minute! It’s all coming back to me now. Okay, first of all, your demands? Totally unreasonable. Totally. Like, I really don’t know what you need with a Staff of Fiery Fire-Type Things. You live in a volcano, Gragdush. Seems like you’ve got all the flame you can handle, don’t you think? Oh, and that Gauntlet of Epic Strength and Might? You sort of failed to mention the part about it being guarded by a barrier that only allows “good” people to claim it. What am I supposed to do? Change my alignment? Do you know how hard that is? And I’m not even going to get into the COLOSSAL DRAGON-SHAPED problem with retrieving your lost Great Axe of Doom and Nasty Things or whatever you call it from the wizard that stole it from you. I’m a thief, buddy, not an errand boy.

However, I do have something that may be of interest to you. Seriously, you’re going to love this. BEHOLD! Feast your eyes on this +3 Box Of Entertainment Containment! ‘Tis an epic wonder fit for the king of all orcs, is it not?

I see by the way your tusks are twitching that you are not impressed. Please, before you toss me into the Pits, let me explain.

You see, this box is from a far away realm full of powerful TiVoian wizards! What? You’ve never heard the legends of the spell-crafters of TiVo? And here I thought you were the most intelligent of all the orcs in the land. Clearly, I was mistaken. For only the wisest of creatures know of the TiVoian mystics, beings capable of collecting story images from the ether and containing up to 150 hours of them, all in the very highest of definition and with THX-certified sound. It is said that it can even control live visions, allowing you to skip past the boring parts with a wave of the included backlit remote wand! Simply connect the box to your scrying sphere of pool via HDMI, Ethernet, or USB and you’re ready to conjure! This thing is totally better than some stupid axe, am I right?

No, no, thank YOU, Gragdush. I’m just glad we could come to an understanding. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ll just be on our way before you realize you don’t have anywhere to plug it in. Huh? No, I didn’t say anything. Ta-ta for now!
