[Duty-Bound] Trick Bangaal to maintain your relationships

Truth be told, you'd only realized the obvious: Amulette was extending you a special invitation. Bangaal's door was always open, so to speak-- she was the lusty type of girl who would never turn you away. Amulette, on the other hand was the sort who wouldn't make things easy for a suitor. If the choice was between Bangaal and Amulette, you had to prioritize Amulette.

All of that said, it wouldn't do to leave Bangaal feeling like she'd been shunned, either. Luckily, it didn't seem that difficult to pull the wool over the genie's eyes-- the right flattery ought to do the trick. You cleared your throat, then placed one hand upon Amulette's shoulder and explained yourself: you only thought that, given the evident rarity of the potion you'd just consumed and your newness as a squire, it meant sense to work with just one saintess for the moment. Bangaal would probably overwhelm you and it could hamper your ability to complete your mission. You were only playing it safe because you knew how powerful she truly was.

"Oooh? So you acknowledge Bangaal is the strongest magician here, yes?" the djinn giggled, puffing out her chest and pressing one fist to it while her many copies clapped in applause.

You nodded, keeping a serious face.

"Ha ha! You are so correct! Ah, a serious guy like you would never pull my leg, so you must mean it!"

You pulled Amulette closer with one arm around her back and hand upon her shoulder. You smiled slyly, noting the same expression upon her face. She was smart enough to understand that the apparent insult to her own skills wasn't sincere-- it was just tended to secure your alone time together. She maneuvered one arm from her cloak around your waist, resting her hand upon your hip. "Ah, yes! Best to meet Bangaal when you're at your best. The factor of five may further your fear!" she agreed, leaning her head on your shoulder.

"Mm hm! Bangaal understands completely!" the genie laughed along, placing her hands on her hips. "Lavender Vin and Bonewhistle Amulette are wise beyond their scant human years!"

"... You ought to act your actual age, you ancient asshole," Amulette spoke under her breath, through clenched teeth.

There still seemed to be tension between the two, but at least you'd gotten Bangaal back on board.
