The clown troupe quickly decides on the time and preparations of said party, setting up a party is oddly easy… At least with Enchantress there.
Enchantress just pulled out a handbook she had, which explained in extreme detail of every little part of setting up a party. So they breezed through the planning phase using it.
Enchantress is very good at way too many things, it is almost like she has plans for everything, she has books explaining in extreme detail anything you can think of.
While the troupe is planning at great speeds, Fool is reconsidering his life choices, thoughts and philosophies… how will he escape from his current predicament.
Fool seems to suddenly remember something and starts talking before his brain can keep up, or maybe that was on purpose…
(Fool:)”Enchantress, did we not spend Christmas together once? Or at least we spent many winters together… did I not trick you into eating yellow snow once?”
At the start of Fool’s speech, Enchantress stares in shock realizing that Fool is “him”, but at the end of the speech she wants to kill “him”.
She has no idea who “him” is, but she does remember one boy she was super close with celebrating Christmas together with her and her parents without her parents permission.
She used her powers and his to sneak him in and confuse her parents into thinking he was not there… actually her parents where not really “there” that day either… mentally speaking.
Noticing the sudden switch from shocked happiness to shocked anger, the rest of the troupe pray for Fool… he really did just say that Enchantress did… that…
This has been the second time Fool has said something extremely stupid about Enchantress’s past and both times it has been about her and that…
Did this happen a lot? Are there more stories? WTF was Enchantress’s elementary school life like? And is Fool brain dead? Does he not think through his words?
Enchantress calms down suddenly, her anger and reaction hidden, but all around feel a sense of danger from this woman; Enchantress is going to kill someone today.
Enchantress stands up calmly and smiles at Fool. (Enchantress:)”Fool darling, can we speak upstair for a moment?” She says gently with not the slightest hint of anger.
But all those with two brain cells knows that the quiet anger, the silence is deadly; Fool… it was fun for however long it lasted, be good in your next life.
Fool foolishly follows after Enchantress up the stairs seemingly not questioning any of this, he appears completely ignorant of what will happen… is Fool retarded?
Should we worry about him, should we treat him better? Many of the troupe members start thinking such, there is no way that Fool just did that on purpose.
Kingclown suddenly feels like he understands the name of “Fool”, he really does live up to his name; he does not only make others look like fools, he is also truly a fool.
After arriving at the first floor, Fool is about to ask what is going on, but Enchantress turns around and slams her hand into his masked face.
A boom reverberates through the house shattering all the windows as Fool flies through some walls of the house, a boom follows for every wall he penetrates.
Fool disappears through the outer wall, mrs.Dim is standing close by and staring in shock as the cup she is holding broke from the sonic boom that appeared as Fool was slapped.
But in an instant the house that was about to fall was restored to perfect condition, even the cup in mrs.Dim’s hand was restored to perfect condition with the contents back inside.
Enchantress humphs to herself and returns downstairs as mrs.Dim stands dumbfoundedly staring at her leaving, some seconds later Fool returns through the garden door.
He seems to be in perfect condition, no leaves or dirt covering him, not a scratch… Mrs.Dim suddenly feels like she really does interact with some crazy strong people.
But these kids these days and their flirting is getting out of hand. (Mrs.Dim:)”This is not the way to a young lady’s heart, you need to change the ways you flirt.”
She tries to give advice to Fool and he just stares at her foolishly… like what? (Fool:)”I did not try to flirt with her, in fact I did the opposite; I wanted to make her angry.”
Mrs.Dim stares oddly at Fool, she knows more than she lets on; she knows who she is keeping in her basement, she knows what this group does.
And she thinks that there is something going on with Fool and Enchantress, even her sons told her about it and she can’t stop thinking that they like each other.
(Mrs.Dim:)”That is not a good way of getting a lady’s attention, it will only do you harm in the future.” She continues giving advice to Fool who feels like she has got the wrong idea.
(Fool:)”I truly did it to make her hate me, not for me to get her attention.” He says quickly and descends the stairs not being able to take the supportive attitude of mrs.Dim.
“Kids these days, hating each other is not a good way of starting a relationship either, why can’t you just say how you feel and get together normally.”
She sighs to herself, but even she was a young lady once; even she started a relationship in all the wrong ways, she wanted to conquer the world with her man.
Those were the times, if only they planned out better how to actually be in a relationship… Sigh. She does not understand the dating world of the current youth…
Superhuman youth might have it very different from others… she might be way out of her depths here, but there might be some books she can read about mothers of superhumans and such.
What to do when certain situation happen, what to do when your child sets himself on fire and the rest of the house… those sort of books might be helpful.
There might have been someone who wrote a book about their superhuman dating experiences, those might help… though she feels that Enchantress might already have those books.
She might have actually written them… who knows when it comes to that woman; she appears so mature and steady, but lately she has seemed like a naive young lady when around Fool.
