Frillsby and Gallsby are the only damn cops on the force. They still need to get their badges to prove it, but they're too busy with real cop duties in the small but magic heavy town of Dorb.

I ignore that comeback in favor of retrieving Gallsby's phone. I prop the phone up on his recently blunted claws, and he opens up his message.

Hey is this where I report issues on the street? It's a small town so it's probably okay. Route 591 coming into town has a couple of potholes that should probably be patched up. Just thought you should know, thanks.

"We can't rule it out."

There isn't a maintenance hotline or anything like that, so calling us was fine. There is a construction company, but they're independent contractors and just get hired by the city to do the work.

We can go straight to the construction company, and just send a bill to the city if we want to have some initiative about it. Otherwise, we'd relay this to the mayor if we don't want to go over anyone's heads.

Getting the potholes fixed is important yes. But that just takes a phone call.

What you need to be doing is going to the potholes and seeing if they are in fact a actual crime. If they are not you owe Gallsby 24 hours of slaveness.

If they are a crime on the other hand you get him as a slave for the day. So get out there and find out.

"Yes, or at least we should. We should assess the damages, and more importantly, check for any criminal acts or lack thereof. Let's go."

Route 591 is an old scenic road that's that rarely sees any running vehicle. We drive to the edge of town, and get out of our cars when it looks like there's some bad road conditions up ahead.

This could be a giant robot. But If it's not a robot and just someone that used magic to make themselves giant, then Frillsby and Gallsby just need to touch the giant to make him/her shrink down so that they can arrest him/her. I guess it's a good thing they're anti-magic

"Well, since no one's standing at a lip of any of these holes shouting about how they dug it all up, I'm stumped."

I look inside the holes. There's clumps of asphalt around, but there's also a lot of chunks of concrete. I clear away some of the rubble and find empty holes, with empty conduits inside. I think this is an abandoned power line, and whatever was in here was taken out. Namely copper.

Well maybe if you're lucky he was stealing the copper for his giant robot.

Clearly they're in the line of high-end cookware which is also enchanted. You know that shit is made entirely of copper (and magic); that's why it's so lucrative!

Lucrative enough for crimes.

Like digging holes in a road to steal all the copper.
>>

Either it's a abandoned power cable, or you've got a copper thief who's immune to electricity. Go to the local scrappy to see if anyone's sold them some copper cabling.
>>
No. 801942 ID: 211d83

Places to check for evidence.

1. Metal scrappers.
2. Heavy equipment rental places.
3. Interview people at the diesel gas station.
4. Anyone who might need lots of copper. (artists, giant robot builders, etc)

As long as whatever caused this was not a giant copper eating monster this is a crime. Someone ruined a public road for whatever reason. Even if they got permission they dug up a public road and did not leave any signs or road cones.

So you most likely won the bet unless we track down a giant copper eating mole.

We have only one gas station in town, and chances are pretty good that a vehicle like that would need diesel fuel before getting to the next station.

Remember that the crime is not necessarily copper theft as the lines might be abandoned. But destroying a public road.

Lets hit the gas station and then the equipment yard. Whoever stole this is working at a scale that implies more than a junkie looking for scrap metal.

Oh also are there any magic dudes in town that can dig like this without equipment? Look for dig marks and or tread tracks before we leave.

Magi, a more local drink that claims to be magically enhanced.

The thought occurs to get all three, but I can get other energy drinks another time. I need to set a good example for Gallsby by showing a tiny amount of restraint.

Which is why I am getting two cans of Fizzy Drink, even though getting Fizzy Drink in the first place isn't the most responsible choice. It'll be fine, I'm sure.

I look at the back of Fizzy Drink to see about a little cartoon. What I was looking at turns out to be poorly printed, near illegible text in a different language, but coincidentally there's still a little cartoon. It only raises the amount of questions I have.

Check the scrapyard. If a local was brazen or dumb enough to rip electrical cable out of the road for scrap value, they'd be brazen or dumb enough to sell it to the local scrapyard. ...Which does raise the question of how much they'd actually get for it compared to how much money they spent to dig it up. Copper scrap can't be going for so much that it'd be profitable enough to illegally dig it out of a road, right? Better ask the price of copper scrap once you get to the scrapyard to find out.

Also, do you remember if there was rubble from where the road was dug up dumped near the road? 'Cause if there's no sign of the asphalt and dirt, the perpetrator had to get rid of it as well. Maybe by magic, or maybe by dump truck. And they'd also need a means to transport the looted copper cable, so that means magic, throwing it on top of the dump truck's rubble load or using another truck. Counting a excavator, that's two or three heavy, noisy vehicles that people may have noticed heading out that way. Oh, and they'd have to pull the cable out of the conduits, so that's another piece of heavy machinery they'd need to do the job. This is really starting to look way more involved than makes sense for stealing copper cable, doesn't it?

>"This means I can service now!"
Actually, Gallsby still can't 'cause he isn't wearing any shoes or other footwear. (Last image showing his feet was in thread 2, >>/questarch/721270, and I'm not going to re-read everything to check if he started wearing shoes after that point.) And since it's highly doubtful that this gas station also has GoGo Gas branded sandals in Gallsby's size, for the time being all (legal) servicing will have to be performed by Frillsby. Sorry, Gallsby.

Recalling the scene of the crime, there was no rubble to the side, and the holes weren't filled in, so there wass definitely a deficiency of road material.

Magic is starting to look more and more likely. If it was cost effective to pull out the copper using normal heavy machinery, then I would think that the city, or whoever's in charge of it, would've taken it all out as part of the abandonment process.

"Let's go to the scrapyard, Gallsby. Maybe they'll serve you, unless they want shoes, too."
"Wait, you guys aren't wearing any shoes?" Icarus asks.
>"Frillsby that's our cue to get outta here! What're those drinks you got there?" Gallsby asks while we take said cue.
"Fizzy Drink. No idea what it is, but it was in the energy drink section."
>"Frillsby you know that we basically have no choice in our lives but to drink those."
"I know, that's why I got them."
>"Oh yeah. What else have that you got there?"
"It's a pen."
>"Okay but why did you get a pen?!"
"Does it bug you, Gallsby, to see me holding a pen?"
>"You better not think it gets to me because it doesn't! I don't care. Nope no way it's getting to me. I can totally hold a pen."
"Yeah, well I bet you can't do this."

I start twirling the pen in my hand. I remember that I never twirled pens before, and I immediately drop it, and it bounces into a storm drain.

>"Haha do you believe in karma?!"
"This is a very biased time in my life to be asking that. I even got you a lotto ticket to show how much better you are at scratching those off."
>"What that's so nice you should've said that first before twirling pens in my face!"
"Just try not to flex your fluff, you'll rip your undersized shirt."
>"You're asking a lot. My fluff is too powerful for these constraints."

We'll head to the scrapyard next, but now that I hold these energy drinks in my bag, I realize that this may be too much power. We can drink them now, or save it for some kind of special occasion, someday.

>"What when?"
"For a special occasion."
>"Drinking these is a special occasion!"
"I can't argue against that, but that just means the next special occasion will be double the occasion."
>"Or we could have 2 special occasions instead of 1."
"Or we could have our first double special occasions we've ever had in our lives."

Cute ears Gale.

So Gale do you know about municipal ordinance 113b? I mean working as a scrapyard tech I would certainly hope you would.

It clearly states that if any scrapyard employee knowingly or unknowingly buys stolen scrap they are subject to numerous legal penalties.

For instance having Gallsby here nibble on your ears in sensual fashion.

Serious business Gale. But also I am just screwing with you.

But back to the point. Did you get any heavy duty copper or aluminum wires in recently? Like municipal backbone stuff from a underground power line?

Also can we take a look around your fine scrapyard?

Okay, first, hold still, tell Gallsby to hold still, and look at the floor for footprints that aren't either yours, his or Gale's. Anybody who walked down a dirt tunnel like this one is bound to have tracked soil in here and might have left a footprint. You just gotta hope you two lunkheads didn't walk over 'em. If you spot some, take a phone picture of them and make sure not to step on them.

Second, call your forensics person out here to do a proper evidence collection. Third, borrow Gallsby's phone, flick its flashlight mode on, and have him hold it up to light the tunnel so you can get better photos of it and the etch marks with your phone than if you used its flash alone. Get multiple angles. And if Gallsby's phone doesn't have a flashlight mode, ask Gale if he could lend you a flashlight.

Next, you two carefully pick your way back to the entrance and ask Gale when was the last time he or anyone else he knows of was down in the copper scrap storage. That'll establish the time after which the place was cleaned out.

Then go with Gale to check if any of the other scrap storage areas was tunneled into, along with any other areas of the scrapyard that could be tunneled into that contain more valuable, non-scrap items. It's possible the burglar may have taken more than just copper scrap while they were here.

Also point out that if there's anything heavy on the level above the tunneled out corner of the basement it should be moved since the structural integrity of the foundation is compromised. Probably gonna need to stick some temporary supports in here after the forensics work is done so the floor or wall above doesn't collapse.

While we wait for our forensics, we try to find some footprints either down here or out there, but even though it looks like all the dirt is disturbed, we don't see anything that looks like footprints. Everything up top is clear, so it won't be a big deal if this tunnel collapses. We'd poke our head in, but having tons of rocks fall on us is definitely not magically inflicted damage.

Our forensics guy comes while we're down in the storage cell.

"Oh hi Frillsby hi Gallsby!" says Yams. "What do you need lifted? I can lift anything!"
"We have a mystery on our hands. We need forensics."
"Oh gosh I told you guys before I don't really know anything about forensics! I'm really only good at lifting things!"
"Yeah, and we need to lift the shroud of mystery away from this crime. You've done it before."
"I still don't know! I kind of meant physical objects, you guys!"
"Someone made this tunnel, probably with magic, but those look like teeth marks."
"Yeah they do, good work Frillsby! I can pull off this rock, take it back to my forensics kit and test for saliva? And find their DNA I guess?"

"Yeah you guys asked for this kind of thing before and I just knew I had to help, so I picked one up. Now I'm glad I kept it around!

Check out the other side of the tunnel, the culprit may have left more evidence there. Whoever dug it probably took the shortest possible route, so the entrance should be right outside the scrapyard fence.

None that I've heard of, but if someone can make magical use out of donuts but not biscuits, then there's almost certainly a magical use for copper.

"Anyways, Yams. Gallsby here took a bit out of the rock to see what teeth marks look like."
>"Mine aren't like the culprit's at all!"

"We wouldn't want that!"
>"What do you mean probably?!"
"You chomped down on that rock pretty happily. Did the tunnel taste like copper?"

"Certainly."
"You know things about engineering and science, correct?"
"I am no licensed engineer, but I have been known to have practiced knowledge to the physical elements."
"What might copper be used for, if someone were eating it?"
"Eating? I have never attempted to use it in my dishes, but I admit, the thought simply never occurred to me. Is it someone who eats it for magical purposes?"
"Probably. Also, it may not be a person, but just an animal."
"Of course. Well, copper has great uses, but primarily because it's such a good conductor of heat and electricity. Now mind, that it isn't necessarily the best at such tasks, but not just is it good, but it is relatively cheap compared to the alternatives. For a magical creature to eat it? Have you heard of the saying 'you are what you eat'? Perhaps this magical beast is the same way, and its own properties are used to transfer heat, electricity, or both. That, or alternatively, this creature is the sort of social butterfly that is not the funniest or most helpful, but is always available to their peers."
"That may be helpful. Have you seen anyone with a big mouth, or otherwise suspicious, that's come into town in the last three days?"
"I can confidently say that if such an individual has entered the town, then they came and left in a manner most unceremonious. And if it were a beast, then they are just a small one."
"Alright. Thank you, Randy."
"I am always glad to be of service. Do stop by soon, so that I may serve later in ways that compliment my expertise."

If it is something that chewed out that tunnel it might be non organic. Like a elemental creature or something like it?

Best to not focus on the bite mark thing to much as it might be a red herring.

Ask Yams if he can check the "bites" for any signs of metal. If it had metal or diamond or whatever teeth he should be able to get some hints by looking at it under a microscope.

As for you two why not check out the local power company? See if they noticed the lines missing and when.

"Yams, can you look into the teeth marks to find if it looks like a certain metal was used?"

Someone in town may know a thing or two about fighting robots. Maybe Randy or Khivat, but that's just a guess.

I make some calls to the power company, but since the road lines were abandoned, they have no monitoring system active to detect any breaks in the line. No other lines are detected or reported as broken.

"So we'd need to watch the biggest load of copper around."
>"There's one right in front of me!"
"... work the balls, Gallsby. There's no real stockpiles. The spare stuff the power company would use would probably be in neighoring towns, not in this little hamlet. I don't think anyone here makes robots, or is a mad scientist, or anything like that. If they do, they're well hidden, and we wouldn't be able to get the military to try to detect something like that unless we had proof."

I call Gale again, and get the information that he typically sells mass amounts of copper to Jacksonville, but keeps scraps of it around for small time use around town, but there's no other big stores of it.

The only other place with a lot of copper is the road that was damaged. Come to think of it, the copper was removed between the dug holes, but not beyond those. So, there must still be a lot of copper in that road, since the few holes there were only covering a small stretch.

Also, so you can pound dat ass later and not feel guilty about it. Order of perations and that. Also so that Frillsby will stop annoying you about Blowjob Karma, you can bear teeth a little bit if he starts thinking your affirming blowjob karma.

We look around, but the place is quiet.

Also, you can easily disprove what Gallsby said by being customers before getting the blowjob.

Karma isn't magic, guys, it's just a natural balancing of the universe. Everything naturally seeks the state of most balance, that's entropy. Karma is only another form of the same! Anti-magic won't work on it any more than it works against other natural phenomena, like gravity, or electromagnetism, or the queue you join always moving slower than the others.

"It was "reported" in the sense that the robbery was discovered in the course of an investigation we were conducting, so we were there when it happened. That essentially counts as a report. The precise amount wasn't specified to us at the time, he probably had to consult his records, but he had claimed that it was one of his larger stocks before the discovery was made so that sounds accurate enough."

Methinks someone is padding his insurance claim but we have no evidence of that and who cares.

(Possible best cop answer?)

I can not comment on a potential active criminal investigation. You can of course request a full report from our department. Once the case is settled we will send you all the photos and a written transcript of events.



(Answer if you do not have to worry about regulations)


I can confirm that it appears that someone or something may have tunneled into what the salvage yard claims is there copper storage and emptied out the place.

That being said I have no idea how much copper was stored there to begin with. Due to having never seen the room before the alleged burglary. But you can request our photos of the scene and a written report for your insurance claims and we wills send them over later.

Regulations are lax. They're as lax as they get without just being an anarchy.

"This involves a criminal investigation that is still ongoing. The copper theft was reported, but I can't confirm an exact number or even an estimate about how much copper was taken."

We close out the conversation, and I start going upstairs to join in on the action

>Who knows, maybe this was all an elaborate plan to get insurance money?
This would be somewhat more mundane, but not something to rule out.

This conversation about stolen copper made me think of a terrible idea, though. An idea involving using Gallsby, myself, or both, as bait, to lure out the 'copper thief'.

It's an idea on par with blowjob karma, in that it is absolutely ridiculous. But it is an idea.

On a much more sensible line of thought, you should ask Villi who his most regular of regular customers are who didn't come in, then contact them to find out why they didn't come in today. There might be event going on in town that you and Gallsby didn't hear about that they're all at.

Copper bait does sound ridiculous enough to work. Which is a ridiculous line of thought, but that might just mean it's twice as effective?

I'd have to think about how to set Gallsby and myself up as bait. We could reveal ourselves, maybe, during some kind of public event. Like some kind of statue unveiling.

We could just paint someone in copper colored paint, but then I don't know if we'd be the bait, or the 'statue'. We'd have to have someone who is willing to take a risk like that. Someone like Khivaat, which also would work, since she's a lot easier to paint, since she doesn't have fur.

That's it, I have the solution. Give him a blowjob to absorb and nullify his karma magic. Alternatively, handcuff yourself to him.

Or wait, if you remove organic matter from yourself, does that matter still have anti-magical properties? Maybe you can give him a part of yourself that you don't need. Like a hair. Or semen. It seems like this all loops back around to blowjobs, one way or another.

So let me guess you make karma real in a area around you?

(not sure this explains the copper stuff. Unless the copper got stole by the scrapyard and the karma then stole it back. Which makes even less sense because who steals a tiny chunk of power lines? Was a lot of work to dig up that road.)

We should follow Gallsby's chart to the letter so that we can equalize the blowjobs quick.

Then discuss things with this guy and if creamed coffee helps his condition or something.

Darrin told some fibs and you've been rude to Gallsby. Actually Villi hasn't been entirely honest either so I guess you should all apologize to eachother.

As for Darrin, is there anything you can imbue your antimagic with? Something he can wear all the time to hold back his karma power? Or at least, until it's needed to catch a criminal? Because criminals have abysmal karma let me tell you. Right now the copper thief must be stubbing his toe on every single rock. Maybe we should check the hospital.

Our antimagic effects only work fully if we're touching it with our bodies. Living tissue like... blood also has a limited effect so long as it's alive.

Villi comes running up to us with paper towels.

"Ohhhhh I'm so sorry! You can use my shower upstairs if you really want to! The coffee and bagel will be free! Also you can have something too Frillsby!"
>"Noo, no, it's fine." Darrin says. "I mean, it sucks, and I might take that shower, but I basically had this coming."
"How do you normally deal with this?"
>"By living out in the mountains. By myself."
"Does creamed coffee help your condition?"
>"Uh not really but I had unsweetened tea and muffins before I came here so now I need creamed coffee and bagels to counter it. Also it's not exactly karma."
"It's sounding more and more like karma to me." I'll just have to pay more mind to Gallsby's chart, at least the parts that don't involve just us two.
>"It's not a very benevolent sort of karma! It doesn't really reward good behavior or harm bad behavior, it just kind of... likes balance in things. Reciprocated actions and counteractions where applicable, especially where two people are involved! It also helps if people believe in karma which it's kind of hard not to when I go around making it exist. Look there's a lot of variables and not even I fully understand it a lot of the time so it isn't just something as vague and simple as karma! Maybe I can help. You said there were weird coincidences? Can you think of any actions that you took, or didn't take, that someone else gave? Like, someone said hello to you, but you didn't say hi back? Someone gave you a wave, but you just said hi instead of waving? And you, Villi?"

Dear god. Do not attempt to stop his magic with your anti-magic for too long, because I just realized. If it's about opposite actions, then if you anti-magic him, the magic will come back equivalent to the amount of magic you, uh, anti-ed. Which means basically the biggest, most extreme karma bomb in the universe would occur as soon as you let go.

Usually it doesn't work like this, but since it's balance based, this might be true. I'm sure Gallsby would love to antimagic the heck out of this guy, but we have to think carefully about this.

>What about bodily fluids other than blood?
The same.

Darrin looks like he wants to eat his words next.

"Thanks, but even though we're in a bakery, we are on the job."

We could just ask him what happens if he's hit with antimagic. Personally, I'm hoping that it can't register the period of antimagic and account for it in the balance, otherwise it wouldn't be much of an antimagic. Honestly, this is what we really need to know before we make a decision, since if his power is still too unstable even with antimagic it's not really justifiable to let him stay.

Also did Villi just steal bread from himself?
>>

Maybe you can work something out so that he can stay, and he makes a good point about copper thievery being countered.

Gallsby's enthusiasm and delight has never been tested this hard before. Not even he has ever considered temperature changes between the beginning and end of each session, or the balance of what kind of noises everyone made, and he sure never wanted to take any tests on that kind of stuff.

I text my dad back.

"You mean my collection of Magic: The Gathering cards, right? Not actual magic cards?"
>"The children's card game, yes."
"It's a man's game!"
>"That retort brings me back, alright."
"Yes I would like them, thank you."

Yams is my friend and would never say such a thing!

Villi gets priority on cleaning up, then the rest of us do.

"You look deep in thought, Darrin. Was there too much of a lack of post-coitus cuddling or something?"
>"No no no. Uh, I'm just reflecting. On my life events. The kind of life events that led me to here... wow that sounded bad!"
"Yeah maybe."

"Don't worry about it."

The karma release wasn't so strong that the copper thief called me up and confessed, so the plan to paint Khivat copper to make her bait is still on. Darrin looks like he's getting ready to leave, so if I wanted to request or say anything to him, now's the time.

After we split, I go down to investigate the bagel man, out of the thought that perhaps the karma was strong enough to deliver the copper thief to me.

No see, if you help with the bait, then you're leaving your partner alone to apprehend the criminal without backup. And as a cop, you can't do that.

Besides, if the statue gets stolen, that means you'd both be kidnapped, and then both your rescues would be in Gallsby's hands. Gallsby. Are those really hands you want to trust your safety to? Look at them, they're claws, they aren't even hands!

What if we had Karma Boy there, Darrin, be the statue? If it goes wrong, he'll end up preventing it all from working and we get the bad guys (hopefully). And if he gets stolen, then the bad karma goes away, right? It's a win-win!

I don't think anyone is prepared for that much accounting. I think I'll leave Darrin out of this one.

And if there has never been a mayor, then that might explain why you and Gallsby are still the only 2 cops in town. Can't hire more cops if there isn't a mayor to do the hiring.

Unless, the mayor lives in a different building and this place is a decoy in case anyone wanted to attack the mayor? If that's the case, then that's actually a clever plan.

We enter. It's possible that the mayor doesn't come in here and it's all a ruse. Yet we never see the mayor anywhere else, so I bet that it's that the mayor never leaves. And no one ever comes, because there's not ever much need to see the mayor in person. Usually people just do what they want, and if it's a problem, then it's our responsibility.

Maybe that's why the mayor was so willing to hire us.

Either way, the lack of a mayor is probably also why we're the only cops on the force.

>Who has been giving you your orders?
The mayor gave us our orders only once, when we started. 'Keep the peace,' 'serve the people', 'get the baddies', and that kind of hot stuff.

Maybe she'll have some better ideas on how to solve the copper problem once she's fully awake? Or maybe she'll have some explanation for the missing copper that isn't theft?

You know who has magical wakefulness powers? Villi! You need to somehow transfer some of Villi's magical awakeness to the Mayor's seemingly-supernatural sleepiness. Maybe if he ate more donuts than he needed, his body would make more magical wakeup juice or whatever it does, so there'd be lots of excess wakefullness magic saturating his whole body, and then she could somehow take some part of him inside herself and get that effect?

But how could that be accomplished?????

How big is this house anyway, if there is so much space unused as to collect so much dust why don't you ask wether you can just move in here and use (the other side to her side) it for housing and a police HQ. Fixes the problem of not wanting to build a new police station and uses space that would be otherwise wasted.

Why are we naked in the first place? It's not as if clothes would make it any less believable to the touch (since I assume frillsby's skin doesn't feel like copper). Some tight-fitting clothes (so they wouldn't rustle in the wind) would probably have been fine.

Oh well, too late now. The mayor needs an excuse either for Frillsby's upcoming erection or why the crowd can't rub the statues' balls. I vote that the mayor says the statue is an interactive exhibit and is purposely incredibly lifelike and animatronic.

Also, Khivat's position doesn't look all that comfortable. Let's hope the copper thief comes quickly.

Khivat may not be comfortable, but it shouldn't be too bad either. The dumpster is right side up. It's less convincing, but the wheels take off most of the weight from her.

I have to stand upright. With this development, I have to stop myself from being more upright. Some people do rub my toes or snoot, but people are practically daring each other to go for the jewels.

Yams tries his hand at getting good luck, too.

>"How much good luck do you need?" asks the guy behind him.
>"Oh uh basically all of it!"

If I keep staring forward and imagine that there aren't dozens of people staring at my butt, this does feel kind of good. Even if it's also kind of alarming there's this many people that want to rub the balls of a statue of me. I'm pretty sure when each person leave, they're a little confused as to what kind of copper statue has malleable balls.

It's chalked up to advanced statue making, and I bet the double standard result of a world that is okay with rubbing a statue's balls, but not a cop's balls.

Since I have to stay still, I'll just have to trust Gallsby to stop things from going too far. Or too much farther.

They're basically gone. I mean, there's probably still someone in the distance watching all of this, looking out from a building window or some corner, looking on with the utmost confusion as to what could possibly be going on.

Jamie did wait until everyone was at least out of proximity before doing his slobbery stuff. In fact, time flew by so much that it's plain midnight now. I think Khivat fell asleep because she didn't even pretend to try to stay stiff, so I had to distract Jamie while Yams dumpster'd her again.

We get by our apartment, so I lead Jamie away. As soon as he turns the corner ahead of me, Khivat and Frillsby book it.

I start to think of an answer but I'm saved by a call from Yams. I don't want Jamie to hear Yams' voice so I just put my face down on the counter so I don't have to try and hold a phone.

>"Hi Gallsby?!"
"Hi Yams."

>"Ahhh!"
"Look I have things under control so if Jacksonville coppers are on their way then that's fine! Just find Frillsby or something because I don't want to share air with this monster!"

The call ends. Maybe I should get him tied down still. He's a real villain, and his reign of offensiveness should be put to an end and can't go unpunished!

In an ideal world, no one else will know that I was the statue, just standing in the middle of the plaza with my junk out.

So I need to find a set of clothes and a way to wash the rest of this copper paint off without getting seen.

Well, what's something everyone knows about gays? That's right, they like girly things, like nice clothes and musicals and smelling good. So, what's the girliest thing in the world, by definition? That's right: girls. That's why liking girls is gay. Frillsby is gay, therefore he likes girls. As a pillar of the community he needs to display no shame in his gayness and, therefore, should proudly show his homosexuality by demonstrating his attraction to girly things, including and especially, as stated, girls. Frillsby therefore not only can but, conscious of and in accordance with his social duties, logically must hit on, flirt with, seduce and otherwise indulge his desires upon the mayor, and any other available females, as much as possible. Because that would be super gay.

They're both bad news!

Anyways, even though town hall functions more as the mayor's personal mansion rather than an actual town hall, there's got to be some spare restrooms.

The front door isn't even locked! I walk indoors in order to find a public bathroom. I locate one on the other side of the mayor's bedroom, so I don't need to wake her up.

This bathroom has a typical bathroom stock of items and looks like a private bathroom, but the layer of coating on it tells me that it was simply left like this. I turn on the shower and start scrubbing away.

Why would you wear a blanket while doing any of those jobs? You'd have to hold it closed with one hand, maybe trip over its edge or get it tangled in something. Very hazardous. No, you need to do all the Mayor's chores while naked.

I'm sure the Mayor will enjoy watching... your prompt generosity. It may even arouse her... appreciation and trust in your suitability for police work. The sight of your bare, athletic body wrestling with some heavy, oiled machinery, hammering some wood into a tight spot, or stretching to screw a bulb into a hole for her benefit will give her something to think about later... when she considers allocation of resources to you and Gallsby.

And for the next time she masturbates, obviously. I mean you're gay but that doesn't mean a lady can't like what she sees and use her imagination a bit, right?

I mean, a town's police are supposed to both take commands and receive oversight from the Mayor's office, right? You've barely had either up until this point, so you really need to catch up on that quick before you come under review. It's both your legal duty and an urgent bureaucratic necessity.

I'm starting to wonder what is with this town and having the worst sleep habits.

There's a form with a few questions. There's a section on his website that says 'pants'. All it says is that pants are cool things that go with shirts. Does that mean he stocks pants? Is he just saying pants are cool? I do not know.

I think if you leave a note saying that you need pants, Ante will purposefully give you a shirt that's too big, so that the shirt will actually be able to cover your crotch.

In fact, if you never asked for pants, you probably would've gotten a normal sized shirt that didn't cover your crotch!

No paperwork no transfer. Also make sure to touch the cop at least once to check for illusions or shape shifting that would be disrupted by your anti magic. (him avoiding your touch is possibly bad news)
