Okay. So if there's ever a chess tournament here, I don't wanna go. I really don't wanna go. You know what's the one thing I hate worse than chess? Watching chess.
Such is the nature of the grimoire. I can't say I'm not interested, although you don't seem eccentric about making anyone privy to whatever elaboration you might be withholding.
Yeah, it grants all these wishes and shit, but like...they're bad wishes. Or, the wishes themselves aren't bad, but the Book makes them bad because it's evil. And usually if you use it you probably end up getting killed by it. Me and my friends try to fight it. We do alright.
[Now, normally he'd be a little more mocking, but... two things. One, he just decided back home that prophecy could go fuck itself, and he knows it worked - or so Dean tells him, anyway. Two, he freakin' can't stand Jareth.]
Okay, speaking as someone who used to be responsible for this shit back home? You don't wanna trust anything a prophet writes down. You should've seen Daniel, the guy couldn't even stand up on his own. Kept passing out all over the place.

I think that book sounds pretty fucking gnarly.
Would you mind telling me a bit more about it?

[Except that he would, of course, but what's a lie or two between fellow prophecy-deniers?]

But- isn't telling us going to get you in trouble with him?

Probably, but what's he gonna do about it? I have my arm back.

Well, he could take your arm back? Or send someone after you for this since he was black mailing other people for body parts.

I'm not surprised such a book exists in other worlds as well.
