It's a fantasy role-playing game.

DM: You are Scanlan Shorthalt, a gnome bard . You are the member of the famous group of adventurers. Previously, She tests the roots of the cursed tree for any illusory magic, but it is solid and real. Grog attempts to level up the Titanstone Knuckles by destroying the kitchen, much to you's consternation.
DM: It's your call. It's a tough circumstance here, because to hit the treant from your perspective, you'd have to hit behind it, but you have no view behind it because you're on the ground.
Player: Got it. Got it. All right.
DM: I mean, if you want to try that, I'll give you a roll, and based on how good you roll it may or may not hit an ally.
Player: Then I will not risk it and I will just Fireball good old Sondur, I guess.
DM: All righty. How many more--
Player: I'll use three more charges. I have seven total.
DM: Okay. Seven total left? Or total?
Player: Total. So I've used three.
DM: Well no, you used five last time.
Player: I thought the first one is just three balls? No? I don't know how this shit works.
DM: What does it say on the actual item?
Player: I don't have it anymore. I lost it months and months ago. (All laugh.)
DM: It's a good thing it's in the DM's Guide. God damn it, Sam. Let me know these things, I can get you the item printout.
