Part 830: Brady B

Oh, Brady!

What's wrong?

I'm so glad you're here! It's an emergency!

Are we under attack?!

Worse! I'm building the official S&B Society tent, and we're out of materials! Oh, it's just awful!

Just use one of the spare tents! We got plenty.

Ugh, no way! Our noble organization deserves better than plain, ugly canvas!

So whaddya want me to do about it?

Well, maybe we can start off with a spare after all...

Uh, what changed from a second ago when that was unacceptable?

Duh! Embellishments! We'll take a drab old tent and transform it into a palace. We'll need silks, and colorful lanterns, and fine, gilded tassels! Oh, and maybe some of those little hangy-bead thingies for the door!

You want all that on a stupid tent for two people?

It's not a stupid tent, and we are not just two people! We are the S&B Society!

This plan's startin' to rub my fur the wrong way...

I don't ware about your fur, which you don't even have anyway! Here's your list. Go fetch everything on it, and then come back for more orders.

List? Let's see... Jumping jesters! I'll have to go to a big city to find half this stuff! Look at these quantities! Twenty tapestries? Thirty-five diamond-tipped canes? ...Forty-five golden bricks? Oh, come on! I can't even buy gold bricks! I think I need a drink...

Ooh! Thank you for reminding me. We'll be needing a nice set of teacups as well. Oh, and since I handled all the plaining, you don't mind footing the bill, right?

You're dreaming, lady! We're splittin' the coast at the very least!

Hey, we voted on this, remember? I am the society president and CEO!...You are the treasurer.

Being the treasurer doesn't mean you pay for everything out of pocket!

Um, I think I know what a treasurer does, Brady. Gods! Hmm... Okay, so we'll also need some shelves for books and such...

Hey! ...Are you even listening to me? ....Fine, I'll go see what I can get from the local markets.

But you're paying me back for half? You hear me, ya mooch?

Sure, sure. Off you go.

I knew this was a bad idea...
