Mia got grumpy, wanting a meat dish, but refusing to take part in Merwyn's fish. She claimed his face 'simply wasn't fish trustworthy enough'. Even dressed up as Stella there was only so much she'd put up with from Merwyn, it seemed.

Merwyn laughed quite heartily to himself once he returned to the shape of a human.
