Good evening, dearies. [Rumpelstiltskin is all smiles, as per usual.] And I do hope everyone is well

[It's totally sincere, of course. Of course.]

I was hoping, perhaps, for just a bit of advice!

[He wiggles his fingers a bit, drumming them together before he speaks again.] These little shadow creatures -- the Heartless... does anyone know anything about capturing them? So far my magic mostly seems to send them scattering. To bits.

[To regroup wherever Heartless go to regroup.] But I'd love to take a closer look at one, examine this darkness to better understand it.

Well, any input would be delightful.

And that aside, if anyone has any business, the door to by shop is always open. Belle, dear. I may be heading out for a bit of exploring. If you are about, would you mind terribly minding the store?

[A bit of a pause and he adds, off-handedly.] Sebastian, do tell me how things are going with you, hmm?

[intogold]

Oh? Have you? [Color him curious, then.] Well deary, I'm on pins and needles.

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

Well, part of one. Maybe if the Heartless is slowed down, we can catch it.

[Video]

[intogold]

Well that certainly is a start. It may well make corralling it somewhat easier. Hmm.

[Not a bad idea at all.]

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

Yeah, now there's just the rest to figure out. There are a lot of people here with different abilities. I'm sure they can help too.

[Video]

[intogold]

Perhaps. But there is a saying about too many cooks, deary.

Still, you may be on to something. I wonder how to contain them as well. Hmm.

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

What's the saying?

Somehow, I don't think the standard kind of cage is going to work.

[Video]

[intogold]

Too many cooks spoil the soup. Even those with the best of intentions.

No, certainly not. But something spelled perhaps... Well. I have a few notions.

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

Oh, good point.

What did you have in mind?

[Video]

[intogold]

Well if they are indeed creatures of darkness, perhaps the trick to holding them is light, mm?

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

That might work! Then you could do some sort of light spell on the cage or something!

[Video]

[intogold]

It seems to be worth a try anyway, hmm? I really am eager for a closer look.

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

We should try it. I want to find out too.

[Video]

[intogold]

Agreed. I'll see about crafting the spells then.

Will you be up for helping me in the hunt when the time comes?

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

You bet! This is something I've wanted to find out too...and I want to help.

[Video]

[intogold]

Wonderful. [He sounds downright delighted, fingers wiggling again.] I was hoping I could count on you.
