Ferris's Backyard Barbeque (All are welcome!)

[King-Clod]

In her defense, Jinx had every intention of being friendly and polite! Being 'dared' to do things just happens to be her weakness.  She primes one of her little robots with a tiny puff of smoke, setting it to scurry at her heel -- adjusts her practiced hand on her walking stick testingly, and makes a run for it. If all goes well, she'll grab Bawdry's golden glasses with her stick, get them into her hands, and get away from the scene of the crime as fast as she can. Her little helper's just for emergencies, able to set up a smoke-screen, cling to someone's arm, or explode. (Counting on her passive aura for certain sounds risky.) 

If this works, it's good she hadn't started up conversation yet! Heh.

Alright, rolling now...
Since you have advantage, I'll roll twice and take the higher roll
...first roll was a 1...
Second roll was an 8! Out of...20!
And Bawdry's defense is...
...17...
Well, let's see if the robot helps at all!
The robot rolled a 4, which increases your score to a 12, but not above a 17.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jinx's walking stick manages to get underneath Bawdry's glasses, but in the moment it does, Bawdry SNAPS to attention, gripping the stick with an otherworldly strength, and tears it from Jinx's grasp. She starts to float above the ground, in the manner an abstract type would before ascending, except with a different, wrong sort of feel. Her halo widens, and you can see a golden ball rolling around the track. 
"So, you want to play games now, do you?"
The robot throws a rock at Bawdry.
It hits, but she doesn't so much as flinch.
"Who put you up to this." Bawdry asks, in a tone more indicative of a command than a question.

Lucent mumbles something into the dirt as they pry themself out of it. As they wrench themself to look up, they look Ferris directly in the eye spots.
"5 HOTDOGS PLEASE!"

Ferris nods with a gentle expression. "Sure can do, buckeroo. Find yourself a seat, this'll take a bit."
He sets 5 food-type hotdogs on the grill to cook, and adds, "Unless you'd like to keep me company, I won't mind."
