Zeus Pamplemousse shook Tessa and demanded again that she say the word.
“I’ll say it,” I said. “Just unwrap her and let her go, and I’ll say any word you want to hear.”
“If I tell you what to say, it takes all the fun out of it,” Pamplemousse grumbled. “I’ll give you three guesses.”
I didn’t know exactly what word he was waiting for. I had heard rumors, though, about troubles with his robotic legislature. There were also rumors that he was looking for an artist to paint him swimming in a sea of dancing women, and I could tell by his eyes that those rumors were all equally likely to be true. For all I knew, his fixation on some word arose out of too many too-deep thoughts about Pink Floyd.
Hopefully, I could trick him into giving me a hint. “Funny how the word rhymes with the name of an eccentric local celebrity. You know the one with the… oh, the thing. You know!”
