To be fair to Merial, any species that has The Beans gets this reaction from people who do not possess The Beans.

It’s like palm reading! Only instead of telling you your future you get told your hands are lovely.
(Hopefully without crossing people’s boundaries.)
Does the LiverPool Avalon does have something like a Library? Up until the Illumination chapter I though what was the Elder Hall was the Library
Is Oz an Avalon along the lines of Wonderland?
Flying monkeys in the middle of Kansas would be quite… something.
Weirdly enough it wouldn’t be just Kansas that could have access points. Dorothy manages to get to Oz (or, at least, the place Oz is in [called Nonestica]) via earthquake and sea as well.
THE BEANS
How were the first amulets made since the Sphinx’s didn’t have thumbs until they made amulets for themselves? Did they have help with the first ones?
Maybe a sphinx subjected himself to the dangerous and unstable procedure of sorcery in order to have hands and make medallions?
Meesh never asked for this.
So if a dragon had cat-like feet, would it have baked beans?
This comment gives me life.
Can I upvote this comment? XD I love it.
Well, said dragon would need the ability to breathe fire to get there, wouldn’t it?
So, limited to Eurobean dragons, I’m afraid.
Oh boooooo!
:D
I assume that since doctors are so rare in Avalons, the same is true for dentists – has lack of ready access to dental care made things like gold teeth common among the magic folk?
I know a guy with two silver teeth and a gold one, and I’m honestly suspicious he might secretly be something other than human.
Is there a good reason liminals don’t go into figuring out their own anatomy/doctoring? It seems like it’d kind of be an important thing to develop.
BEEEEEEEEEEEAAAANS!!! They are utterly irresistible to poke at.
Do nonhumans ever go prank the humans by being “accidentally seen” as cryptids? Man, I would totally do that, especially if I was one of the larger cats. All those ‘black panthers’ that are seen in the UK and North America? Jellical Cats plus a little temporary hairdye to cover the white bits. “So what’d you do Saturday night for fun?” “Gave New Jersey a new cryptid sighting.”
I can easily imagine bugbears doing that sort of thing; it seems right up their alley.
If Alec Hyde is to be believed, they’re confirmed to have done that, and indeed did it often enough to create entire “species” of cryptid sightings.
When I read this question, I immediately thought of an old S.C.A. filksong. (Sung to the tune of “Walltzing Mathilda”)
Frea-king the mun-danes,
Frea-king the mun-danes,
Will you come a-frea-king the mun-danes with me? …
This is good. Thank you for this.
Push the beans firmly, and the murder knives come out!
