Slow down, Audrey, it's not quite done yet. The fixings are over on the rock there, just grab a bun and some veggie stuff and wait for the burger to cook for a second.
[Grin]
Still chasing the elusive maiden, then? Or did you catch her and lock her in a tower yet?
You actually put her in a tower? Did you hire a dragon, too? Because you know towers attract princes like lightbulbs attract moths. a couple weeks and a bottle of Rogaine later, and you'd better watch out.

[Fake smile] Actually, our headquarters is a tower on top of a steep cliff with a very winding path, to discourage visitors. She leaves it more often than me.

Sounds like a barrel full of laughs. That's probably done, by the way. I've been using that knife as a spatula. [There's a very broad bladed Kukri-style knife by the grill, probably bought from one of the goblin peddlers.]
Slow down, you eat like it's been weeks. [Harry considers this, being a fellow person with a ludicrously quick metabolism] Or at least chew. Chewing is good.
Oh yeah? when was the last time you sampled the other white meat?

[He swallows a large mouthful] I don't usually feel like eating until the caffeine withdrawal wears off. I'll throw up otherwise. [He pats his stomach and then goes for another, eating like a man who's been ignoring his stomach for far too many days]
We were sent to a jungle island full of the things. They weren't little bleating ones either, but ones with teeth as long as your arm.
Tell me those aren't made of anything sentient.

[Flashback:
Harry: Where are you from, dinosaur!
dino: bleat!
Harry: they speak english in bleat?
dino: bleat!
Harry: Ok, I'm gonna kill you if you don't say something other than bleat!
dino: bleat!
The Harry Dresden delicious-looking animal sentience test at its finest.]
There's plenty for everyone, if you wanna come make yourself one.

I'll do you one better than that. [looking over his shoulder] Hey, Al, could you toss another one on?
[He smiles back at Komui]
I may be good at grilling burgers, but I step aside for the living embodiment of America.

[And he sets off! I'll be a while before he finds the place]

[Harry puts his hand over his eyes to shield from the glare, and sees a bobbing white beret in the distance. He waves his free hand, grinning madly]
KOMUI! We're over here, man!

I worked out it wasn't real after a while, though I still see her running off. She's in the tower back home.

What fun. Did you at least get to watch a video with a talking strand of DNA first, and ride around on jeeps?
