Well, it isn't like Colby was unclean by nature. It was just because he was goblin-formed. By comparison, Michelo had been looking pretty damn sharp. It's not often that the Midnnight Harvest actually gives you a facelift, but kitsune tended to have striking looks, when it came to human forms. Hell, some or all of them could probably manage a glint of the teeth every time they grinned, be it by catching the light a certain way or providing their own.
Jury's still out on whether Michelo could do that or not.
Nevermind, though. There's more important things to be done! They were off to Rhyswood Tower to go sneak off with some 'special' treasure. Just about everything cool they could lay their hands on, but within reason. They were all still young, and wizards were nnever to be trifled with at the best of times. Right now, they were on the quiet approach, the dirt road with the trees on either side, leading to the tower. Michelo and Colby knew it, of course. The thunder fox had - on occasion - delivered something here from the forge. They probably wouldn't recognize him now, especially since he was currently a little white fox for stealth reasons.
"Okay, now we don't exactly have a plan, and I really don't know how to plan for this, but they know what night this is, and the worst they can really do is stop us if they catch us. However, if we are caught, you stink 'em, Colby, and we get out of there. I'm not gonna hurt them, if that's even possible. This is just...sneaky-sneaky, grabby-grabby. So, are we set?"
Uhh, maybe. It wasn't far to the place now, was it?
