Impressive, humans. Impressive.
It takes a good... half a day of having all your amenities back before your innate childishness comes out.
Pleasant, as always.
I'd like to think the rest of you aren't quite stupid enough to believe a word of it, so I won't start pointing out where it's wrong (From the first line, incidentally).
And there was me getting my hopes up about humanity.
I really wish someone'd turn the lights off again, if nothing else.
[Private to Rose]
Seems like we've both lost wardens since we last talked... whilst everything was working.
Are you alright? I also have a proposal for you.
[Private to Saffron]
That man hasn't been causing you any trouble, has he? I won't mention this again if he hasn't.
[Private to Narvin]
I don't particularly like people breaking in my room, or writing things in my name. In general, that's an understatement.
Also, you promised me an axe.
[slight ink scribble as he realises those two statements don't look good together]
They're entirely unrelated statements. If you wondered.
On another, equally unrelated note, I... by culture, we draw up contracts for things like this. Given the nature of our agreement, I imagine it's best if nobody else could read such a thing. So I propose we both write our own halves, in our own languages and then translate into Morporkian verbally. I can show you what I wrote for Ray by example, if you want.
I have a proposal for you, too. Apologies for the long list of things.
team xenophobia!,
trust the humans...,
secretly a warden,
axes are cultural items okay?,
ardent doesn't always shout,
all dwarfs are contract lawyers,
haters gonna hate,
destroy a word and you destroy the world
