[Marianna said, and looked at one of the younger girls, who was busy cutting into some potatoes with a rather strange looking curved knife.]
- Well, ya see, a local witchy-woman told us we could make the potatoes taste much better if we cut them thin, skins and all, and made the slices wavy before we fried then in oil, and then sprinkled some salt, pepper an' herbs over 'em, ho ho ho -
[Ophelia laughed, and took another crisp with her fingers, sticking them in a white dip.]
...And they taste even better with some cheese or sour cream with pickles! You wanna try them too, Lady Marianna?
[Marianna shook her head with a sigh.]
...Maybe later. And Ophelia? I think you should keep the pickpocketing to a minimum, if you don't want to mess up what we're planning to do with Lady Oktavia. You do want the reward, right?
[Ophelia sighed a bit at that, and waved her hand.]
- Sure, sure. So you're going to help us set things up now, right?
[And then, she grinned.]
...I think we'd rather prefer to talk someplace where "Lady Verenia" and her troup of beautiful girls wouldn't come and bother us, though. Boy, does that lady get around or what?
[Marianna sighed, then, and rolled her eyes, snickering herself.]
- For shame, Ophelia - Stop spreading those stories about her, please! Do you know how much trouble I'd be in if the Queen of the Purple Kingdom actually happened to turn up on my doorstep or something?
...Yeah, yeah, I get it...
[Ophelia said, and then, she got to her feet, and clapped her hands.]
- Well, OK, then, everybody - It's time for the performance we've been talking about. Come on, let's go, Chelsea, Emmy!
