How Brassycoat won the nectar of immortality, v4.0

Right, bitches, you asked for it…

…no, really, three of you did. So I listened. Therefore and whereupon, I give you the ‘hastily tacked-on magical flight chase scene deluxe’!

Just so you know, the thought process went like this (spoilers):

Mutt: I hate padding when I’ve nothing more to say.
Perrault: But you’re also crap at writing endings.
Mutt: Yeah, I know they’re right, it’s just that it’s a weirdly exact parallel with what my English teachers used to say.
Perrault: Mrs. P. was hot.
Mutt: Well, damn it, I’m not leaving the minor villains alive this time.
Perrault: I quite concur.
Mutt: Magical obstacles?
Perrault: You said it. A classic and still charming.
Mutt: With a twist.
Perrault: Ooh. Yes, I like that. And don’t forget to add an extra test to the beginning.
Mutt: Eh?
Perrault: Well, to begin with the blokes were the fourth animal to be defeated by the whistle, so…
Mutt: …so we need another. Yes. Thanks.
Perrault: Any plans to write the sequel?
Mutt: How Brassycoat won the ability of rebirth? But it’s not as exciting, really. It’s like one of those sage stories – “then he meditated forty nights and four beneath the ash-tree…”
Perrault: I can embellish it like I embellished this one, silly.
Mutt: With more blatant subtext?
Perrault: Yo, I lay ’em as I see ’em.
