Interlude }

That song also amuses me. It’s from the new videogame. Marceline agrees to beat Finn up for five dollars.Then crush his spirits with a song? Oh, Marcy.

Five bucks is worth it.

…Interesting.

Alex listened as the woman sang, her own voice tempted to join despite not knowing the melody or the singer. She participated as a one woman audience instead, waiting for her to finish before speaking.

“…I, uh… didn’t realize I’d just became a servant?” She offered a half-smile, obviously attempting - and failing - at being witty. “Ahaah… that sucked, sorry.”

Marceline tapped her chin thoughtfully. It was very often that someone just accepted the old servant line but hey, she wasn’t about to take it back. “Don’t worry. Servant aren’t known for being intelligent.” A wry smirk spread across her face, her gaze quickly sizing up the woman before her. She probably wouldn’t be great at slaying things. What would be a good initial job? The vampire queen gave a quick shrug.

“Marceline. The vampire queen- be thankful you’re a servant and not a meal.” The threat was mostly empty. Mostly. Her tone held no gentle undertone that would give away her somewhat innocent intentions. Most of the time she merely wanted to stir up a little trouble. She didn’t bother asking for her name, nor did she say a word. Instead her just stared at her expectantly, her finger resting against her cheek as she pondered what task to make the other perform.
