My name is Merl....

[open_flame]

This goblin started following me after Luke died. He used Trev andThom's  old blocks to write "My name is Merl" last night.

So...um...meet Merl.

He makes coffee. Better than my stupid cat

...HE'S SO FAT.

If it wasn't for the fact that my entire history as your sidekick had been taken away for bump!verse, I'd feel like I had been replaced.... about a year after I was no longer your sidekick.

I think Luke fed him nothing but cupcakes. Jack usually has Erin's places deliver some for meetings and Merl was on them in a second.

[open-flame.livejournal.com]

You made better coffee then Merl does.

[graylikeme.livejournal.com]

He needs some pants. To... hide his tail.

[notthat2d.livejournal.com]

Well, it helped that I could MAKE it.

[open-flame.livejournal.com]

He keeps taking them off, folding them, then un-folding them and doing it again. I don't even know.

Hey, do you know what this mean? He wrote it all over one of my journals.

[shows Gabe this]

Μου δώστε το κέικ, κυρία πυρκαγιάς.

I donno...what if Merl gets jealous? I mean, look at those teeth.

[graylikeme.livejournal.com]

[ponders] That's... Greek.

I think it means that you're supposed to give him cake. He's calling you firelady.

[notthat2d.livejournal.com]

I vote on learning how to get a goblin house broken, and maybe also at least for now, keep it happy.

[bitchwithabite.livejournal.com]

This guy's been poking me in the ass with that staff thing.

[open-flame.livejournal.com]

[smirks] Maybe he knows you like a bit of pain on your ass. [shrugs]

[open-flame.livejournal.com]

He keeps yelling at me, then bouncing into the shadows.

[shows 2D a video of Merl gibbering in Greek]

Do you have any idea what he's on about?

because I haz to use icon! 1/2

[Merl looks very happy to be understood, bows to Gabriel and runs off to the kitchen pointing at the cake on the counter]

[open-flame.livejournal.com]

Wow...all that over cake.

[gives Merl the whole damn cake]

Thank Gabriel. Guess I gotta learn Greek now.

[notthat2d.livejournal.com]

.... I have absolutely no clue, especially since I don't speak ... yeah, I have no clue what language that is.

[graylikeme.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. [watches Merl snarf down the cake] He's kind of cute. I can relate to the sweet tooth, anyway.

[open-flame.livejournal.com]

...crap. Neither do I.

[huffs]

I wonder if Abe knows.

[notthat2d.livejournal.com]

Well, if anything, he might be able to get enough from the Goblin's mind that he won't need to know the language.

[bitchwithabite.livejournal.com]

Y'know, that's almost funny.

[open-flame.livejournal.com]

[smirk] His old master, or whatever, was an eighteen year old guy. Think that explains it.

[headshake] I don't know what to do with him. Someone who knows about this stuff says he chose me.

[open-flame.livejournal.com]

...too soon?

[open-flame.livejournal.com]

Oh hey! Good idea!

[notthat2d.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'd offer you a translator, but the only one I can make isn't really practical.

[graylikeme.livejournal.com]

Chose you? That sounds...um. Why did he choose you? Is it the unlimited storage of cake or what?
