Egotistical Thief pokes holes on the most "perfect" plan. Idiot Fighter slices it open.
Cast Appearing[]
Setting[]
- Red Mage's "A-Hole"
Script[]
Thief | I have a concern about the plan. |
Red Mage | I am of an open mind and I am willing to hear criticism. Also: that's stupid and you're stupid. |
Red Mage | Go on. |
Thief | Well, ignoring the highly suspect part where Fighter can block ethereal energy... And the more suspect part where you have to cast every spell at once... And the grossly suspect part where I have to dodge explosions while I'm in them... There's the most suspect part of all where Black Mage can hit what he wants to. |
Black Mage | I get eager. |
Red Mage | Doubting every step of the plan is no reason to doubt the plan itself. |
Thief | No, it's the best reason to doubt it. |
Red Mage | Look, so much can go wrong before the thing you're most worried about has a chance to go wrong that it's not even worth worrying about, is it? |
Thief | That's...what? |
Red Mage | So, let us forge ahead! |
Thief | But |
Red Mage | Sorry, can't hear you over the forging, Thief. |
Fighter | How do we get out of here? |
Red Mage is speechless... |
