She scuttled out of her tunnel holding a wax comb of honey and berries, giggling softly to herself. Oh she couldn't wait to feed some gullible adventurer with these amazing berries. After unfortunately succumbing to their affects, she'd realized that they could make the perfect prank for someone who didn't know her (or who did, like poor Marshmallow).

The Queen had on her white cloak, brushed down to hide the seams, wearing her dress, mask, and wreath of antlers, forgoing her normal bone and tooth crown for one make of flowers. She wanted to look friendly, after all, like the royalty she was. Pegasus would be the perfect place to wander, with its vast fields, green forests, and gembound spending their days in the golden light from above.

It was perfect.

"Oh hello~!", she called out, "Would anyone come join me? I've some honey that I cannot finish myself, it's free to anyone who wishes to join me~!"

The Queen was delighted that she'd lured in two unsuspecting (or not, in Kitty's case) into her trap.

"I'm known as 'the Queen'," she said to the red panda, "I made this snack for my fellows, but unfortunately I've made too much. I didn't want it to go to waste..."

She passed a hand over the comb and showed it to the two, revealing blue berries floating suspended in the liquid, their juices turning the honey pink-ish.

"I could teach you how to make pretty things," she said to Zhusha, "Only if you give me some of your molted feathers as an exchange, they're very pretty."

She set the honey on the ground and clasped her hands together, "It's very sticky, so if there's a stream nearby, I suggest you wash off in it afterwards, lest you get things caught in your fur or feathers."

The Queen was practically giddy, both at the fact that Zhusha had bowed, treating her as a Queen ought to be treated, and that both gembound were trusting enough to eat her drugged honey. Oh how hilarious this would be.

"Later you can meet me in my tunnel," she said, pointing just behind her, "In there. Just call out my title and I will join you."

She smiled down at the both of them and giggled charmingly, "I made it myself! The honey and the berries are a very nice flavor, as the slight bitterness of the berries helps mellow out the sweetness."

She watched the crane start to stagger around, a massive grin forming under her mask, though she made sure to keep her shoulders still as she resisted the urge to burst out laughing.

"Oh not right now," she said, slightly concerned that if she were to teach Zhusha right now, they might injure themselves.

"How do you like it?", she asked the two, "And... how are you feeling?"

The Queen held the comb, head tilted as she watched the two stumble around. She peered into the honey and hummed, wondering if she'd put in too many of the berries.

"Why don't we sit down?", she said, watching the crane fall flat on his face with a snort.

She put the honey aside and patted down a section of grass, gently lifting Zhusha up and tutting gently, "Oh dear, you both seem to be having a reaction to the berries! Had I known, I would have never offered it, will you ever forgive me?"

She batted her eyelashes and offered a hand to Kitty, head slightly tilted.
