Involvement

Act Three

Heder Cross, together with his mother Thalita Cross, are observing the water and lava elementals exposed in the hall of the magic shop. They are discussing the elementals and some petty household problems.

If spoken with, Heder tells the party that he would like to have an elemental as a pet. He promises that if that happens, he will not let the new pet die "like a goldfish".

Idle banter

Heder Cross: Mumbus, why are lava elementals so hot?

• Thalita Cross: Because they're made of fire, darling.
  • Heder Cross: If a lava elemental is made of fire, what am I made of?
    • Thalita Cross: Many things, I suppose. Blood, bile, phlegm, chocolate...
      • Heder Cross: Chocolate?!
        • Thalita Cross: Why of course, darling.

Heder Cross: Mumbus, if I were a lava elemental, I'd get a job in a restaurant.

• Thalita Cross: Would you now?
  • Heder Cross: Mmhmm, 'cause I could cook food right on my body so I wouldn't even need an oven.
    • Thalita Cross: You make a fine point. Very efficient, you'd be.
      • Heder Cross: No fish, only chicken, beef, and vegetals. No pork either.
        • Thalita Cross: It'd be your body; you'd make the rules.

Heder Cross: Mumbus I'm bored.

• Thalita Cross: Hello, bored, I'm your mother.
  • Heder Cross: That's not funny.
    • Thalita Cross: I think it's very funny.
      • Heder Cross: Well you're wrong.
        • Thalita Cross: If you're bored and I'm wrong, where have Jaremy and his mother gone?
          • Heder Cross: UGH!

Heder Cross: Can we go now?

• Thalita Cross: In a little. I've got a bit more shopping to do.
  • Heder Cross: Then where are we going?
    • Thalita Cross: Figaro's, to pick up some hair ointment for your father.
      • Heder Cross: But dad doesn't have any hair.
        • Thalita Cross: That's why we need the ointment.
          • Heder Cross: Oh yeah.
