Oh? How interesting. You must know how to work that ring very well by now then.

::rats conquer the peanut dish on the bar, and divide up the spoils amongst themselves::
::A tiny flag with a music note on it is raised in triumph over the remains::

::gorged on the spoils of conquest, the troupe of rats turn their attention towards the bowl of sunflower seeds on the salad bar against the wall of the bistro::
::Marching single-file, they advance, trailing across the floor nearly silently in pursuit of their prey::
::The largest one, the stalwart Aretha II, scopes out ahead of the other rats. Seeing the coast clear, she flicks her ear once, twice, three times, signaling the rest to skitter out in the open over to the salad bar setup::

::The hunt is on! Led by Aretha II, the rats climb up the side of the salad bar and stealthily follow each other, single file, between trays of lettuce, croutons and other salad fixin's::
::Shirley, the mouse who has been adopted by the rats as one of their own, pauses at the crouton dish, her whiskers quivering as she considers breaking formation and being content with the roasted garlic goodness of Remy's homemade croutons::
::Stefani slides out of formation and herds Shirley away from the croutons. Today, everything will go according to Aretha II's plan. Today, at least. Little does any rat suspect the plans Stefani may be harboring...plans of mutiny....plans to become the Pied Piper's new favorite...but not today. Not today::

::Success! The sunflower seeds have been liberated and distributed amongst the Bistro rats. The tiny scraping sounds of chewing ring out in the Bistro for minutes.::
::When all of the seeds are gone, two tailflicks alert the troupe, and within seconds, the rats are gone, as if they were never there...save for a tiny flag with a musical note on it planted in the dish that once held sunflower seeds....::

Hmmm... what shenanigans will ensue tonight...?

*Flies in and heads to the bar to grab a root beer. Pauses as she looks to a dish on the counter top.*
*Flies over and arches a brow at the small white flag.* Hmmm..
I wonder if the riders have been going out on their own to have some fun.
*Picks up a small hair.* confused

::in the dark places, corners of the Bistro, a small revolution is underway::
::Though she has been told to stay at Lantern's, Stefani is using her cunning to undermine the authority vested in Aretha II. She speaks to Dolly, Beyonce and Dusty, Aretha II's three most trusted Generals. In the subtle, specific language of the rats, she plants the seeds in their minds...seeds of distrust over their leader::
::Aretha II...is a diva. She glorifies in the attention of their friend and benefactor, their leader the Pied Piper. Aretha II gets the most treats, the most head petties, the top of the large pile of rats they all sleep in. Why does no one else get to sleep on top of the large pile of rats they all sleep in?::
::These are the questions that Stefani plants as she begins cracking the foundations of the rat society she is a part of...but that she secretly wants to be on top of.::
::Stefani departs, returning to Lantern's. She leaves in her wake Dolly, Beyonce and Dusty thinking unsettling thoughts as they prepare to dart out and raid the peanut dish for yum-yums::

*Scans the hair out of curiosity and then arches a brow at it.* Well.. that's just.... interesting.
*Taps her fingers lightly against the bartop. Unknowing of the chittering between rats.*
