Zaratras | The Seven Deadly Sins

C
I'd like to avoid any embarrassments down the line, so please assist me in utilizing this magical artifact!

Does that sound uneducated? What should I call it?

Would someone like to direct me to a good pastry shop? What's an appropriate topic for telepathic communication!?


[In the middle of the street, there was a grown man clutching his amulet with one outstretched hand as if he was having a heart-attack, doing his best not to look panic-stricken and embarrassed.

He was failing grandly.]

Zaratras was forced to struggle with his own ego when it came to this particular favor. With an irritable glower, he fixed his gaze on the corn maze and recalled a few painful memories of his childhood, playing in similar barley fields. Dreyfus was no fun back then and he got lost a number of times. Flashbacks of being stuck out in the fields until the morning after surfaced and he looked as if he had taken upon a dark disposition.

The first person to approach the field without a partner was immediately barked at. He lifted a hand and pointed to them, looking much more irritated than he actually was. The flashbacks were somewhat on the traumatic side.

"Hey, there! You need to go out there with a partner! What if you get lost?"

The stern look of disapproval he wore probably covered up his inner shame. Probably.

There was one embarrassing and large man laughing hysterically at every joke and crying upon every tragic reveal during the shows from the classic actors. Even the actors themselves must have felt played by him as if he were trying to ruin them intentionally. Though he wasn't a heckler by any means, Zaratras' excessive reactions were somewhat distracting from the serious focus of the actors an, on occasion, they would break and pause to wait for his obnoxious reactions to die down. Even so, they were professionals. They powered through it every time and made sure their performance was finished without hitches on their part.

As a result, Zaratras was saved from the embarrassment of the audience participation when he went to go see the more random and sporadic performers. They knew he would over-emote and didn't want to risk looking too strange through process of association.

He leaned over to someone nearby during one of the performances and whispered, "Isn't it fortunate to have so many talented artists roaming around, here? This land seems rather blessed in strange ways! It's hard to believe the state of the world when watching them."
