"I'd say," Umi looked over at the last of tavern patrons who were now running out of the door, screaming gibberish and frothing green slime from the mouth. Some of them now had tentacles.
"Everyone laughs at that joke in R'lyeh. I guess it doesn't translate well."
"I thought it was funny," said Paws.
"You did? I didn't think it translated into Ultharian either!"
"It doesn't, but it was funny when everyone went insane."
"Oh well. Sometimes they become cultists when they do that," said Cthulhu hopefully.
