Fortunately, Waterdhavian frogs do not get the bonus today.

After way too long, we played Librarians Errant again. Although in fact both Reshelving Squad Upsilon and Gladys’s musketeers are playing the exchange completely straight, as soon as they meet at the ice cream shop, everything goes off the rails. Poison-skinned bullywug acrobats launch themselves through the store window from mangonels and immediately trampoline back out with the books in their sticky fingers. Fortunately, Thaïs is also stuck to the books, so the bullywug escape doesn’t make it as far as planned. The bullywug Grand Admiral Bigbugs and his henchfrogs appear, and moments later, Celsian mercenary librarians rappel down from their airship to join the battle. The books change hands a few times, mostly remaining also in the appendages of the Celsians’ invisible stalker, various bullywugs are defeated, the airship is set aflame and has to be evacuated, a froghemoth crawls up from the sewers to provide an additional obstacle (not necessarily to anybody specific, just in general), until after three rounds of this, one of the musketeers gets hold of the books and makes his escape with skedaddling magic. With the objects of contention gone, the combatants disperse and/or get arrested, but later the musketeers do return the promised original of vol 2 to the reshelving squad. Level UP!
