"Correct, My Queen! WOuld you care to lead the inspection?" Gently steadying the woman.

Some of the men smirk and defy

"ATTENTION HUUUUNK" THe Queen says, when she gives the order even the smart asses must obey

"Yes I believe I will.." She moves and sways her scepter, someones leaning against the guys looking down and ... then she says "musician... you .. you know that tune that goes dun. dudn don dud don!? up and down a bit?"

Both Pinky from Animaniacs and what looks like a PG version of Columbia fro RHPS (With a glass ) hand start to play it

And then, trying to drunkenly re enact a scene the young ones may have no hope of getting unless they're into old movies "Yes, no no no no, yes! no no no no no no yes! ...." She sways back and forth some that got nos get yes the second time... "No no nonono YES.. no no nonon.. no... ... .YEEESSSSSSSSS!"

Giggling.

laughter breaks out

"OY!" She nearly falls but the men move forward to catch her "Well, how nice.. you to the wine tray, you to the fan, you may rub my feet.. in fact.. ladies , we all work so hard... gents, if a lady asks you for a foot rub ANY Time tonight, you should drop what you're doing and give the best one you can. I know it's not quite fair, but well, time to make up for that wage gap and I'm gonna do it my way"

And so the law of foot rubbing was passed for the night!

"A fine decree! Huzzah!"

"HUZZAH!" Others say, the women in the crowd a bit louder than the men but everyone seems to roll with it

Irene sneaks closer to the queen.

"Now what comamnd to give next?"

Grete gawks at Irene's mom a bit.

She doesn't see Robin hood, ye

"You chicken girl... got any good jokes?"

"Oh. Ah."

"Ah. Two muffins were in an oven. The first muffin turns to the second and said 'Hot, ain't it."

"The second muffing said "AHHHH, a talking muffin!"

Some laugh, most groan, but the boozy queen gives a giggle

Nessa muffles a giggle.

"Oh come on" she says to some who don't respond "That was funny.. give it a laugh"

And they all have to laugh now

The queen blinks "Wow... you guys are accomidating. Now I know i'm dreaming."

"Why do bees have sticky hair?"

"It's a honey do.." The queen declares guessing!

"Oh, good one! I was going to say they use honey combs." Apologetic grin. "Wakka wakka."

"Why did the chicken cross the road?" Grete calls over to Sparrow, with a bit of cautious enthusiasm...

"Why?"

"You tell me!" She laughs. Apparently, the punchline is that Sparrow is a chicken... Perhaps jokes aren't the Wichtel's strong suit!

Sparrow laughs!

Nessa offers, "To get out of Kentucky?"

some folks laugh, and the Queen goes "We have kids? OOh there goes some activities... ahem.. tonight, kids get to cut in line ahead of adults for food and snacks!"

"She's the greatest ruler of all time" Stu says

"Go Mom!"

More laughter at the Kentucky part

Irene has a plan, and scampers off to get some purple ice cream for the queen!

"Mom?" the queen says then turns to see a fox tail trotting away. She didn't recognize her kid thourgh the mask but that voice

Sparrow circulates - apparently, all of her jokes are puns.

But she's trying!

Someone groans and tosses popcorn at her.

At this point however...

Sparrow realizes there are NO tomatoes, or tradtionaly thrown fruit to be found

She takes it with a smile. Only a little flicker of her wings, what fear she has is mostly hidden unless one watches closely.

"Corn for the fowl?" Nessa offers out a string of popcorn threaded like a necklace.

"Bawk?"

"Excellent work... wow.. cenatur cowgirl? I'm.. .I"m plastered" The queen says "Take the popcorn necklace, chicken girl, and if anyone throws stuff at you, you may throw back at them provided you make pew pew sounds when you do it"

"MOST generous, my queen!" An even fancier and more over the top bow.
