audio forever!

[Oh wow, she isn't dead yet. How about that. Facilier manages to mask his surprise, instead being as pleasant as always]

Carol! I always have a moment for you, darlin'. What can I help you with? [Joking tones, making it light and breezy and more to the point, completely innocent] Ya'll didn't take it all at once did you?

audio forever!

[notpeterparker]

[Oh he already knows what she's calling about. That makes sense, since he's a fortune teller and all.]

No, I only took a small sip of it. But I'm a little concerned it didn't work right - well, I mean it did work, I wasn't afraid of anything, but it made me want to do a lot if dangerous things too.

[changeitroundsome]

[There's a soft hmm here. Well, that worked as it should. Now, what's a good angle to play this?]

Ah, that is the trouble, bein' brave means you lose a certain amount of fear. Some folk find it a very freeing experience.

But maybe I made it a touch too strong for y'all. My mistake, I thought you wanted more bravery than you do. I'm sure with a weaker dose ya'll could still save that dear friend of yours. [His tone suggests he doesn't think that at all]

[notpeterparker]

[She catches that. Her fear about not being able to save her friend starts to rise to the surface once again.]

W-well I do want to be brave! I really do! All I want more than anything is to save my friend!

[changeitroundsome]

Oh, I know, Darlin'. Your heart's in absolutely the right place. [Which makes her easy prey]

I tell you what I can do. You keep that extra strong batch for when ya'll get home, to save your friend, and I'll whip you up a weaker one, should you ever need it here.

[And casually slap on another favour as payment in the process]

How does that sound?

[notpeterparker]

[That sounds fair, she thinks.]

That's...that's very kind of you, Doctor Facilier. Thank you. And I can use the potion I have right now to save Rail later, right?

[changeitroundsome]

[She really is his favourite customer]

Ain't nothing, Carol. We've got to look out for each other in this strange land, don't we? And that you can, ya'll get the best of both worlds.

[notpeterparker]

[Carol shakes off her fear and doubt. It's fine, she has everything she needs to save her friend.

She cheers up.]

...Yes, that's right! We do have to look after each other, don't we? And maybe I'll become brave enough that I won't even need to use it!

[changeitroundsome]

We sure do, because no one else will. [It's a partial lie. Facilier learned a long time ago that no one cared much to help him, so he learned to depend on himself. But he can pretend Carol is added into that equation for the sake of face]

That might just happen, you never know.

[notpeterparker]

[His comment catches her a little off-guard, but she smiles. Of course she'd be happy to help him, after all the trouble he's going through for her.]

I'll certainly try my hardest! Thank you again, Doctor Facilier. I'm in your debt.

[If she only knew just how true that was.]

[changeitroundsome]

[Oh she sure IS]

You're more than welcome, Darlin'.
