Quite the job indeed, well the little notice of it had sparked his amusement for someone who lost a ring shrinking two mages down to find it sure was an odd thing to do. Couldn't she just go around with a magnet or one of those jewellery seeking beasts? No matter at all as he was getting paid for the chance to see the world from a perspective of an ant! Truly it would prove to be quite amusing, yet first he had to meet this elusive job partner of his. After all when a job asks for two people and only one shows up it would be very likely that another would soon sprout up. Pity it didn't work that way with eyeballs otherwise he could just pluck everyone's out at random and put them in a cocktail! Well either that or roast them with the spleen and liver. Dressed eccentrically as always the prince straightened out his tunic, the fine purple material relaxing him quite a bit as he knew, perfectly well that the gold embroidery matched his eyes and it was just such an exquisite combination oh of course!
So it was with a plate balanced in on hand that he lent against a nearby streetlamp, munching on the delightful little samples of cheese and crackers that he had rescued from the harmful grasp of that angry old cheese maker! After all it wasn't stealing if it was rescuing, that horrid old woman hardly looked after and loved her cheese like he did! Oh no no he had loved the cheese and whispered sweet words to it, and now it tasted just so much better. This whole prospect of shrinking had thrown him off his game a little, for once he would have been dancing around the pole while dripping melted cheese into his mouth yet now he was just leaning on it, one hand oddly holding a platter of fine cheese above his head and the other using a lovely looking checker with a hunk of cheese on to act as a little aeroplane zooming in towards his mouth.
Joyful, really yes, the aeroplane was something he hadn't done since he was a child. He was not about to start now especially simce there was another magical presence drawing closer as what appeared to be a young girl. "Hello young lady! Ma'am I am here to help Mrs. Cartigan find her ring. Are you here for that job as well? Because that would be simply splendid indeed! Oh and yes before I forget would you like a slice of wonderful succulent cheese upon the best cracker in the word?" What an offer? As he spoke the polite gentleman offered the platter to her, displaying quite the range of cheese and crackers for her delight, if she so chose.
