## Description

### Personality

Gobble is very loyal and has covered up Chirp and Squak's messes before. He makes a point to reassure Chirp and Squak that he is not a snitch.

## Background

Gobble is a long-term servant of the Lords of the Wing, and has watched the cousins grow up. So he has cleaned up Chirp and Squak's "nastiest messes." At one point, the cousins invaded Gobble's dreams, and attacked him ("tabletopped" him) in them. When his masters gleefully recollected this, Gobble began to cry a little.

## History

Gobble was cleaning and finding/pouring alcohol in his masters' nest when Squak and Chirp frantically discussed their secret engagement and marriage respectively. Once Chirp mentions that she also has a child, and, furthermore, has given up her ability to fly to give magic to her family in the Material Plane, Gobble audibly reacts, dropping the bottle he is holding, and begins to run away. Squak stops him by casting Otto's Irresistible Dance, Chirp then casts Gift of Gab, ensuring Gobble only remembered Chirp talking about her marriage, but not her giving up her magic. While he is dancing, Chirp muses how, in that moment, she really wanted to cast Sleep, ensuring that she would get an auto-crit on the butler, killing him before he talks. Gobble asks them to just set him free, and promises not to tell anyone, reminding them that he's covered up their messes before.

When Andhera comes to visit right afterwards, Gobble continues pouring drinks, adding vodka to Andhera's requested apple juice ("ruining" it), before escorting the prince out.

Later, after Chirp and Squak are invited to Prince Apollo's party, Gobble gets the two cousins the drugs Andhera had given them early in the Bloom after Squak successfully is able to say the code word for them.

## Relationships

### Lady Chirp Featherfowl

Gobble is the cousins' butler, and acts as such within their nest. When Chirp is talking about her family in the Material Plane, and giving up her magic ability to fly for them, Gobble overhears this, and tries to run away. Combined with Squak, Chirp uses Gift of Gab to make him only remember that she is married. She jokingly considers killing him, though he begs her not to, promising not to tell anyone. When asked what it would cost for his silence, Gobble jokes that he wants money. Taking him seriously, Chirp offers to fabricate anything he wants every week for his silence. Gobble reassures her he is loyal to the cousins, even though they, at one point, invaded his dreams.

### Grandfather

Gobble admits that if Grandfather ever interrogated him, he would have to tell Grandfather about what he heard Chirp say, to which Chirp understands.

### Lord Squak Airavis

When they first arrive at the Bloom, Squak tells Gobble to, "Shut the hell up," when they are speaking. However he later admits he enjoys when Gobble talks. As the cousins' butler, he was present when the two were revealling their secrets about their respective relationships. Shocked at Chirp's reveal of giving up some of her magic, Gobble tries to run away. However, Squak uses Otto's Irresistible Dance to keep him dancing in place. He is released when Gobble assures the two of his loyalty, he is released, and continues to act as a butler, cleaning and pouring more and more alcohol into the cups of the two cousins. Later on, Squak asks him to get the drugs Andhera had previously given them. Gobble demands Squak to say the code word first, that code word being what the code word always is: Airry Pearry.
