Dialog Tanager: I came up with a new composition!

Dialog Tanager: ...Warming up the room a bit, I see!
Dialog Tanager: I must say, your workshop always struck me
as being rather gloomy; it's almost pleasant to see it lit up like this.
Dialog Tanager: A dash of color's always a nice change
of p- Valda: Tanager. Get out.
None
Dialog Tanager: ...pardon me, am I interrupting something? Valda: Just
get out.
Dialog Tanager: Ohh, I'm not just going to buzz off
like that!
Dialog Tanager: There's something up right? Come on, you can
tell me.
Dialog Tanager: If it's anything confidential, I won't sing about
it!
Dialog Tanager: If it's anything confidential, I won't sing about
it!
Dialog Tanager: Or perhaps a bit of feedback? I know
I'm not the best with magic, but perhaps you could still go through it with me?
Dialog Tanager: Come on, tell me!
Dialog Tanager: Valda, you can trust me.
Dialog Tanager: Come on, at least do me the courtesy
of kicking me out.
Dialog Tanager: Come on, at least do me the courtesy
of kicking me out.
Dialog Tanager: Vaaaalldaaaa...
Dialog Valda: Stop it!
Dialog Valda: Here! Look. What do you see?
None
Dialog Tanager: A...flame?
Dialog Tanager: That's purple?
Dialog Valda: ...it's supposed
Dialog Valda: ...it's supposed TO BE GREEN!
Dialog Valda: Our lord hands out assignments. Mine is to

Dialog Valda: THAT'S PINK.
Dialog Valda: But fine, fine, maybe I'm looking at this
the wrong way.
Dialog Valda: Maybe I just need to try one more
time. Tanager: Uh-

Dialog Valda: Huh. 33 iterations and I haven't seen THAT
before.
Dialog Valda: ...dear gods.
Dialog Tanager: I mean...
Dialog Tanager: ...these colors are all very nice.
Dialog Valda: It's not green! Green is basic, is it
not?!
Dialog Valda: Why is this so difficult for me? What
does any of my fancy training matter if I can't do this?
Dialog Valda: Look at me! Smote one dragon and tricked
the king into thinking she was competent,
Dialog Valda: now I'm court mage, and I can't even
do the same job as a stained glass window.
Dialog Valda: I'm dead, I'm so dead, he's going to
skip firing me and go right to executions,
Dialog Valda: why did I ever think I could do
this job,
Dialog Valda: he's going to fire me directly into the
sun, mark my words, I'm dead.
Dialog Tanager: We haven't had an execution in centuries.
Dialog Tanager: We haven't had an execution in centuries.
Dialog Valda: Maybe he'll make an exception for me, who
knows, a girl can dream.
Dialog Tanager: ...You're off to a great start, you know?
If you could take down a dragon, you can take down this assignment! You'll knock it out of the park.
Dialog Valda: or i'll be knocked out of the park.

Dialog Tanager: Well, I did say I came around to
play you a song. Think it'd help take your mind off of things?
Dialog Valda: ...Yeah, sure. Tanager: Alright!

Dialog Valda: ...A bit...silly again, isn't it?
Dialog Tanager: Ah, probably. We'll see how it sounds a
few more drafts down the line, right?
