Disclaimer: I didn't get any question reviews or emails quick enough so I'm just continuing now.

APASM: **glares at Disclaimer* That was the author's note, not the disclaimer.

Disclaimer: Oh.

APASM: You already know what the disclaimer is SUPPOSED to say so, VOICE!

Voice: And now, live from Serpent Mage's kitchen, it's...

Random Audience Guy 1: Random Tamora Pierce Ranting!

RAG2: Aw, shut up!

RAG1: Make me!

RAG2: I will!

**RAG1 and RAG2 get in a fight*

Voice: And today's guests are Alanna and Zek!

RAG3: **only one clapping*

Zek and Alanna: *bow, as much as a monkey and a person in full armor can*

APASM: *to Alanna* How would you like to wear something more comfortable?

Alanna: Yeah, thanks

Zek: *bounces around the room and crawls up on SM's head*

APASM: Just back there *off stage to right*

Alanna: Okay *exits stage-right*

SM: **very annoyed*

APASM: Now, how are we going to talk to a Carthaki monkey?

Zek: *totally oblivious* *bounce*

SM: CAN YOU QUIT IT!!

Zek: *bounce*

SM: I know a lovely recipe for MONKEY SOUP!

Zek: *freezes*

SM: **happy*

Zek: *collapses in shock*

SM: *really happy*

Alanna: *re-enters* Daine won't be happy.

APASM: ** revives Zek with her goddess-like powers*

Zek: *bounces on APASM's head*

APASM: See, Serpent Mage? I'm perfectly calm. My thoughts are very violent, but I'm not.

Korin: *flashes peace sigh at her* True pacifist!!!!

Alanna: Who are you and should you be here?

APASM: **Zek still bouncing* She is Korin, and yes, she should be here.

Korin: *bows*

Zek: *bounce*

Alanna: *stare*

APASM: Zek, will you please stop, I'm getting a headache

Zek: *stops*curls up and falls asleep on APASM's head*chatters*

Translating machine AKA Daine in a box: He said soft

APASM: Well, at least he isn't bouncing.

TMAKADIAB: He also said your hair is pretty

APASM: Thank you, Zek.

TMAKADIAB: He said "doitashimashite"

Korin: He said "You're welcome"

Alanna: Where did the monkey learn whatever language that is?

APASM: My question exacly.

Korin: Well, we were backstage together before the production started. And that's my language. Call it Nihongo

Audience: **snoring*

Korin: *clashes cymbals together*

A: HEY!

Korin: *gringrin* Kekekekekeke

Zek and Alanna: *buggy eyes*

SM: Can I quit?

APASM: No.

SM: Please?

APASM: No.

Korin: You don't like us?

SM: I don't like order I like total CHAOS! And this isn't as chaotic as usual.

Korin: *blink blink* Call in KoK, Queen of Chaos

Chaos: Someone call?

SM: Yes! This place needs chaos!

APASM: You mean a monkey bouncing on my head wasn't chaos?

SM: Not enough.

Alanna: Why was I brought to this madhouse?

APASM: Because there was a glimmer of hope that Serpent wouldn't turn it into a madhouse, but as I said, only a glimmer.

Alanna: Not even that.

APASM: True.

That's all we can think of, so this chapter is officially done. Please review!
