We found them by happinstance, likely unwise for them to have fought us, but they paid for that. We could both have left each other alone, as neither of us got much out of the fight. I say send them on their way and let plummer know we aren't into his business. Leave it lie, OR, if he wants to make someting of it, we can go that route. I would bet he is a guild member though, and the guild doesn't like interrnal squabbles.

"If the guild does not like internal squabbles, who is to say they will not punish us instead of him? I am guessing his is no average member..."

The guild doesn't punish for accidental brushes, now were we to continue to mess with another guild team, then they might get ugly. If this Plummer is not a guild member, then he'd be an independant and the guild doesn't much care for those.

"I appreciate that.
you know we gotta tell him what went down.
  He has stuff on us, we can't run because
 he will find us.  The last guy who ran out on him...it wasn't good and we had to watch."

"Yeah, I get that. But he can't be trusted to deal fairly with either you or us, so identifying us to him is a big problem. If there was a way to change your memories, that would solve both our problems."

"Clarence, seriously.  We lettin 'em go, no furt'er aggressions upon 'em.  Beside, Plumber reads t'e room, he'd be up in here toot-sweet layin t'e mojo down just to check t'eir story.  Just gonna have let this area go, mark off limit."

"Everyone has their weak spots.  If the Plumber comes after us, it'll be our responsibility to introduce him to his.  Not a fight any of us want, maybe not one we can win, but he'll know he's been in a fight."

"Clarence, stop bein foolish.  Course t'e Plumber cares about t'e truth, for no ot'er reason than ascertain whet'er subordinates be lyin or not.  Won't like as matter when decides how deal with us, but he cares bout t'e truth.  No one in power gets t'ere bein stupid, an when idiot inherit t'e crown, t'ey don't stay in power.  An when t'e Plumber comes, aim to avoid fightin.  Find out what wants, figure out how to give it.  Fightin crime boss be last resort."

"You are taking me out of context. He cares about finding out the truth, but it will have little effect on his response to us. As far as we are concerned, he will make up his own truth, and it will unlikely be in our favour. It is much better for us he does not know our names, rather than having to 'negotiate' with him by finding his weak spot."

"That ship sailed.  Make yer peace with it, t'e Plumber has first names, kens we in t'e Guild, kens why we here, etc.  Hells, t'e fucker can just magic out where we sleepin givin bit of time."  Jareth emphatically gestures, "So make yer peace with it, or slit pair of throats an walk away.  Cause don't think most us will keep workin with someone what goes drastically against t'e group will, an t'ere ain't no use arguin an discussin furt'er front t'ese two who are gonna relay it."

"Need to reassess once left this room, with t'ese two guys who are gonna repeat everything we say to t'eir boss."

Jareth sighs, "So why don't we sit quietly until done catching fy breathe an t'en we head back to base?"


OOC:  GM I'm willing to do a "skip forward 40 or so minutes" montage of queitly waiting if everyone else is.

When he finally feels like he's got his breath completely back, Jareth motions for the two to be untied, "Right, we're leavin.  Now, you two wait bit before headin out to report.  Eit'er ya poke yer heads out an t'ese two," Jareth indicates Mel and Mario, "spot ya, be filled full of arrows."

He stands and motions for the group to set out.
