Tendilius notes the agitation of the witch at the mention of the Amethyst Academy. Her wording, 'lap-dog.' A reflection of her own feelings from a former life? Some wizard gone missing in the quest for delirium?
He hides a wince as the fairy's body distorts. When the witch open's the fairy's mouth he fights both disgust at its eagerness and the racing of his mind. Had she wanted the piece for a voodoo doll in the making? Or was it purely a twisted fascination of humanoid dining? Probably the former, but he couldn't discount the latter entirely.
But another pressing matter, surely she'd realize it was a fake if they tossed it in. He takes a quick glance to see how the others are looking.
[[ @Arthuropod, would Ka-Cha Khan be readying for combat or trying as best as possible to have a truce?
@Skip, does the adventuring party the fairy was with look like they have ranged weapons? Are they in position for readied attacks if the witch comes out of the fairy? ]]
"You're hungry aren't you?" he continues in Tylwyith. "For a nice juicy eye. I can almost see a little flaming flicker, no doubt adding some spice to it. Indeed, seems a waste to hide the flavors of such a delicacy under the layer of the fairy's tongue. Wouldn't you prefer to taste it with your own?"
In a whisper he says to Cosmos, "Got any subtle spells you can ready?"
Switching over to Median with his full voice to make sure all can understand he says to the Witch, "Come out of that body first. Then you can have the eye."
[[ Depending on circumstances, might try readying an eldritch blast under the guise of using it to extract the eye but then blasting it at the witch when she's out of the body. Curious how others will act. ]]
(I'm not sure Ka-Cha would have heard the plan, since Cosmos was trying to be subtle, so whenTendilius says "Let's do this", you'll "hear" Ka-Cha "say" "Wait, are you serious?". Similarly, since the humans seem to be in on it, this is just window dressing to explain how Ka-Cha "knows" whats going on. Unless you want me to roll hearing perception & insight & fpllow up with sub conversations to explain.)
At this point Ka-Cha will "say" "Ohhh, I get it now. I'll play along by pretentinding to try and stop Tendilius, switching targets at the last second. I can also provide silent communication by broadcasting our plans to each other".
Needless to say he'll try very hard not to let the witch "hear" him
Then he'll draw a chat-kcha and "yell" at Tendilius "NO! There's got to be another way!" He'll use the actual Thri-Kreen language of clicks & whistles, and allow the witch to eavesdrop on that one.
He'll end holding a drawn chat-kcha to threatenTendilius.
[[@Skip, does the adventuring party the fairy was with look like they have ranged weapons? Are they in position for readied attacks if the witch comes out of the fairy?]]
((Yes! They do in fact!))
Human: Heavy Crossbow
Dragonborn: None (Too far away for Breath Weapon too)
Secret Third Person by Porch Door: Daggers (Ranged)
The fairy is about 60ft (east) away from the Human and the Dragonborn. While for the Third Person the fairy would be about 20 ft up and 35 ft away (the porch is much closer to the fairy). However, the daggers will likely not hit due to the angle. The porch has an awning which likely would be hit if trying to shoot at that angle.
But yes, the Human has a readied attack if anything happens that could be dangerous to them.

((Oh yeah whoops you're right Ka-Cha probably wouldn't have heard the plan. I like this how it's going so far. It's fun with misconceptions heheh ))
