1. I'll respond with something random I like about you ( Read more... )

Havelock leads his lordship through the portal once more. He glances at the bench for a moment, then turns to Vetinari. "Would you like to talk here, or would you prefer to take tea?"

The hand writes carefully across the page.

I was asked by a man if I was in the insurance business. I was rather amused.

And I have met one of Keel's men. I shall definitely keep an eye on him. Anyone trained by John Keel has a distinct advantage, I feel.

The hand slides across the page, punctuating with a flourish.

Well. My evening turned out... rather better than I expected. Freya is... quite a woman. More, if my suspicions are correct. Suspicions is too light a word, I suppose.

Still, everyone needs a friend, or so I've heard. Perhaps I should have another talk with his Lordship, without alcohol, this time. I ( Read more... )

The hand scrawls across the page, not as controlled as usual.

I have awoken slightly worse for drink this... afternoon, it seems to be. I have very little memory of what His Lordship said to me. I recall mostly a sympathetic tone... and encouragement to drink more. If I did not know His Lordship so well, I should be suspicious. Of course, I should ( Read more... )
