the brothers were dragged by their handles into the middle of town

everyone they had pranked was now free and extremely agitated

"YOU THINK THIS IS FUNNY HUH ?" Cagney in his 2nd form asked the cup-brothers angrily, as he was held back by Hilda and blind spectre

cuphead took one look at the agitated flower, thinking he looked like an angry candy cane

cuphead tried to hold in his giggles, but he knew he failed when the flower went into his third form, now dijimmi had to join in the restraining, though he was still wobbly from not having his magic carpet)

"STOP" shouted rumour honey bottoms

everyone was silent and Cagney was back in his normal form

"now that this stupidness is over, it is time to decide what these two boys' punishments shall be" she announced, taking charge like the queen she was

" clean the barnacles off me ship" Briney-Beard demands, a fake beard attached to his face

" no, clean my robot" Dr Khal shouted

" no, that will not do, clean the casino from top to bottom" implied a smugly vicious king dice

it was still scary that the casino crew continued to live in inkwell, but an agreement was made that they could stay as long as they did no wrong except in the casino and in hell, them agreeing without complaint

"no, that is too much everyone," said elder kettle as he came into the crowd, looking at the shaking boys with soft but disappointed eyes

"They are my boys and my responsibility, so I shall decide" he continued

it took several minutes until he said

"they shall work with pork rind until I believe they have learnt their lesson and return all your belongings," he said finally

there were murmurs of disagreement, but they agreed and left so they could look presentable again

" working with pork rind can't be that bad...right?" asked mugman
