Really?
If that's not you in that picture then who is it?
You really do look alike.
Your father perhaps? Your brother? Cousin? Body double?

Look closer at the picture.

Take a picture, Mudy. It'll last longer.

Also, we are in Sepia Town and have come across a Volto. I would not be disinterested in seeing about any major historical power in this area.

Mudy takes a closer look at the painting.

>>52557
oh lawdy.

"You know, I thought someone so well-dressed would be able to deal with someone like me easily..."

>>52557

My name is Scarlet. Why don't I buy you a drink and we can talk a bit?

>>52557
I'm... A prince who's far away from home.

>>52561
...Now that's just WEIRD.

Jesus fucking christ mister, have you folks just not moved since that painting was commisioned or what? Are you under some kind of curse? Do you need some help?

Go around back, but also try to get in a position where you can't be easily jumped. Up high for preference.

M.

Malto, I bet.

That guy SURE looks like Ratial....

That means incest sex and boredom is ahead. Weee.

Look closely at the painting. Examine the painting over the fireplace in the painting.

Wave hello to the birdie. :3

wave to the bird!

WAVE hello to the BIRDIE

Don't let the guy get the drop on you and then chide you for letting your guard down. Seriously, that'd be embarrassing.

Mudy waves to the bird.
The bird says
>"Hello."

Ask its name.

"What'cha sitting on, there?"

Wait quietly under the stairs, so you can see how many people are coming down.

"So... you come here often~? <3"

Mudy politely asks for the bird's name.
>"I am mama bird."
>"What'cha sitting on, there?"
>"I am sitting on baby bird."
>"So... you come here often~?"
>"I live here with papa bird and baby bird."

well...assuming it couldnt talk would be..racist.. i guess...

...."seen any people get jumped back here?"

>>52641
Aaaw!

Do we have anything we can offer to a bird that it'd like? Food morsels?

We can probably work up change singing, buy some bread, and give it to Mama Bird. <3

"Are you going to raise him to be a good bird or and evil bird? My momma wanted an evil bird."

Is NOBODY ELSE CURIOUS as to when Mudy picked up the ability to speak with animals?
Check around for ventriloquists.

>>52641

"Do you like it here?"

>>52649
Considering the sheer amount of crazy shit that happens around Mudy... A talking bird is hardly surprising.

>>52641

"So, anything interesting happening around here lately?"

"That's nice"

Not really. I'm a little curious as to how come the bird can talk back, but Mudy seems able to talk to most things.

Mudy greets the man as the exits out the building. He has removed his hat, revealing his shapely facial features.
>"Hm? Were you talking to anyone?"

"A friendly Malto bird is all. Gonna get her and her little one something to eat after we have our conversation"

>>52698
Say, "No one" then introduce yourself and ask for his name.

>>52698
"Oh, just admiring the local wildlife.

So, Mr. Malto, you wouldn't happen to know anything about a 'Resistance' would you?"

"Your wife. She is a charming lady."

Wait, what if the bird is his soul? What if this is a crossover MudyQuest/SparrowQuest/DiveQuest?

"Dwarves... What are they doing with DWARVES...?
For that matter what are so many dwarves doing HERE?
Unless... Did they finally defeat the dwarven strongholds?"

"And I also wanted to talk with you about something... there's something about you that tells me I should know you. This something feels like my spirit... or is it my psyche... my nose? I do not know, Mr. M, but these feelings make me feel very ambitious... Now onto the Skullking, I do not fear what I have spawned from. These troops I have managed to deal with appropriately for quite a while. Even without violence mind you. I would appreciate your help very much though. May I ask what you have in mind?"
