One Through Ten

>I vote we wake up six. Maybe visit five on the way to the paperwork adventure.

As much as I'd love to watch One interact with what appears to be a living hat

bed. six.

One exits her room. Jumping out a window isn't really her style, to be honest, and while Nine is probably going to wake up soon on her own, Six usually needs a bit more of a push to do anything.

just knock really loud on their doors as you pass, don't even break stride

She raps on Six's door.
"Up and at em, lazybones."


"Zzzz-wuh..."


"....Ehn...zzz..."



"Hey there One! I didn't get to finish talking to you earlier! Lucky you showed up! So about my polymer-"
Oh no. One silently pleads, but...


He's already off and ranting.


So, she recalls someone wanted to know more about The Lawyer. Now's a good time for that.


For ages upon ages, the kingdom of Infinum was ruled by a line of kings, each named Infini, each with extraordinary power. Infinum was also split into 10 different lands, each of which was ruled by a Lord to administrate that area for the king, as he could not be everywhere at once. The latest King, Infini X, created One and her siblings to assist his Lawyer in his day to day duties. Unfortunately, the king died heirless. Fortunately, the start of King Infini X's Will stated that one of the lords would be the next ruler, and who it was was to be announced after all other parts of The Will were carried out. Unfortunately, The Will was incredibly long.


Double unfortunately, The Lawyer, your boss, is a sort of sloth-creature. It has been about 150 years since the king died, and the Lords have been waiting that long to find out which one of them are to rule. However, it was also stated in the beginning of The Will that if any of them attempted to threaten or harm The Lawyer or steal The Will to make the process go faster, they would be barred from receiving any of the gifts The Will would have bestowed upon them, including the potential kingship. So they've been waiting. As it stands, several of The Lords don't like each other, but each of them has so far kept from snapping at each other in anticipation of the execution of The Will.

One and her siblings were created to make The Lawyer's life at least a little bit faster; filling out extraneous paperwork for him, delivering messages, filling out forms, feeding, cleaning, and dressing him, etc. Despite his slow speed though, The Lawyer does truly care about his little helpers, occasionally buying them little gifts and such. He is the closest they will ever have to a parent.


One and Five arrive at the paperwork room.
"Aaaand that's it! Thanks for listening, One!"
"Oh, it was no problem. Let me know when the, uh... polymer is ready for general use. Also, do me a favor and make sure Six is actually up."
"Can do! See you later, sis!"

Is there anything else you'd like to know before she gets started?
