Espresso Cookie, a naturally talented coffee mage (I think), had been invited to prince Plain Yogurt's "private hotel", as well as me.

" I assume this is to reward us for our good deeds , don't you agree ? " I tell the man, as he pulled out his see-through umbrella.

He smiled warmly, chuckled, and said,

" no . "

What?! I refuse to believe this. Why else would a literal prince invite us to a private place for an entire week?! What did he think, it was just to chill out?!

" what would make you say that ? we've done many things worth awarding — in fact , with the amount of battles we've been in , even this walk would be worth a crown ! "

Espresso sighed.
" the prince obviously invited more people . for god's sake , it's a whole hotel — for a week !! he wouldn't do that just to celebrate us . if he did , we would've gotten some kind of warning — i swear , that sometimes , you're so full of yourself that you forget how to think , Madeline . "

I shrug.
" I think we're worth much more than that , y'know ! you'll see , when he rewards us with some kind of huge check , or award . "

" an award ? what is this , the Oscars ? "

Me and Espresso continued our banter.
It was fun, talking to somebody in the rain , even if we're disagreeing with each other..

It felt nice. I could never tell why.
