Er...

I'll be just staying... in today. Very in. So in you all can just pretend I never existed.

Knowing my luck, I'll get safely in, just to find out that I'm in with a troll or the like.

Big chaps usually. Made of rock. Hate when you start fires in their mouths.

I thought so. Trouble doesn't sneak up on me. It comes after me with a spiked club.

Unfortunately, I think you'd be lucky if someone came after you with just a spiked club today. Your roommate lying low as well?

My roommate?

Oh, the Patrician.

Er... it's hard to know what he's doing.

That's his nickname... title? It's quite a mouthful! I hope he's not affected as well... there's enough people on the rampage today...

Tyrant works, too.

He's the Patrician of Ankh-Morpork. I won't be the wizard calling him Havelock.

The current ruler, eh? I suppose that explains the formality. But our rulers back home are pretty casual, you can drop the titles and call them by their given names.

Good luck! And be careful if your roomate or anyone else is acting a bit off. If you should need any help, just let me-- or any of the sane acting-- city watch members know...


[[ooc : Yeah, just a heads up why Riou suddenly popped up. Yacking about Vetinari. While the city burns. XD]]

Just fine. But I can smell something bad in the air and it's not Ankh-Morporkian bad.

I'll take your word for it. I just want to get back to Ankh-Morpork. Or maybe Hunghung. They were going to make me arch-chancellor of their wizard's university, you know. Imagine that. I would have had the best hat.

It doesn't look very dignified, but when you're in the middle of Fourecks, dignity isn't as important as not getting eaten, bitten, poisoned, starving, or dying of thirst.

Rincewind, I truly doubt such a thing is possible. Yours is a very memorable personality.

Nevertheless, it appears that the atmosphere out-of-doors today is somewhat frenetic, and it may indeed be wise to remain as in as is possible.

Rather unfortunate that individuals such as yourself couldn't have been cursed, as opposed to the ones with the ability and desire to start--demolishing buildings, is it? Or building, singular.

Hey now!

I've seen my share of battles. I'm just smart enough not to want to start them, look for them, or stay in them.

Would that everyone were in possession of such a mentality.

It would at least ensure that the City remain quiet.

Speaking of remaining quiet, I appear to be something of a popular topic of conversation...?
