Duke noticed a new friend arrive as Ken mentioned something about a party. This calls for cake! You can't have a party without cake. In your hands, you summon a cake for the new friend. You give the new friend the cake by throwing it atop of his head.
Okay, so you are now surrounded by sugar-coated zombies. That are contagious by touch. But, hey, at least they were respecting the 'DO NOT TOUCH WOMEN WITHOUT PERMISSION' law still, which was working to your advantage. You back up.
"I think I'm good, I'll just go sit over here and... OH! Wait, I'll just be over here eating candy! Yay!"
You quickly walk over to the candy wall and start licking it. Hm... Sour. You decide that putting up an act might benefit you, but your not sure. All you can do is hope. You swore, if you became one of those... THINGS, you were going to fudging wreck stuff. Somehow, you'd do that.
"The only joy I can think of as of now would be to slap you so hard your color palette returns to something less irritating on the eyes you Asinine Shit Weasel."
You physically cannot frown, so you can't show your disapproval of Aura's unwillingness to give up her problems. You teleport immediately behind her.
"C'MON, SWEETIE! YOU'VE GOT PROBLEMS THAT NEED SOLVING, AND I CAN HELP YOU WITH ALL OF THEM! YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT LOSING CONTROL OF YOUR RAGE, AREN'T YOU?"
You reach out and slam your palm into the candy wall next to Aura.
"JOIN THE PARTY AND YOU'LL NEVER BE MAD AGAIN! HOW'S THAT FOR A PROBLEM SOLVE?!"
You clench your fists, still licking the wall. You turn to face him, your tongue green.
"... I... You...!"
You hold your tongue, you fists making indents in the ground below you. YOU SWEAR TO ALL THINGS HOLY... You continue to lick the candy blockade, this time a bit more aggressively.
Somewhere in that massive pile of candy that just fell on you there was a large candy cube that weighs about 100 lbs. your Right Horn gets broken in half and Candy Shards stab you repeatedly.
"YOU SIR, NEED TO JUST CALM THE FUDGE DOWN. I KNOW, WE'RE KIND OF IN BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE, BUT THERE IS NO NEED FOR SUCH LANGUAGE!"
You shout, finally snapping. You really really want to punch Ken, but you know you can't because then you'd become one of those things... UGH WHY IS LIFE SO HAAAAAAAAAAARD?! You turn to face Ken.
"CANDY EATING IS HAPPENING, SO JUST GIMME A SECOND!"
You grab one of the candies that had fallen on top of Afrien, and eat it with a huff.
You decide that Aura will never make the right decision on her own. You firmly, but gently, grab the sides of her head.
"YOU'LL THANK ME FOR THIS LATER, DARLING."
Ken: Kiss
You kiss Aura. Now, you would never even dream of doing this normally, but you know that this will set Aura's mind free. Somewhere in the back of your mind, buried under a mountain of sugar, a part of you freaks the hell out, but that's not important.
