[There is diffidence as she speaks. Hearing someone else's memory is uncomfortable for her, because she feels it should be private. But she is also plainly impressed.]

I am not sure words of congratulation or admiration are suitable for this.

Vimes. Shall I call you that from now on?

stonyfaced January 23 2011, 20:11:00 UTC

Me neither. But, well, I caught the bastard. That's always nice to hear.

If you like, yes. I've been called Stoneface for two years now, so I don't mind if people want to stick with what's normal to 'em.

Perhaps "a neat arrest" is the best way to describe it.

I will call you Mister Vimes, then. It is a name worthy of respect, if only because it belongs to you. And [...] I would like to spar with you, whenever you are free.

...I totally dropped our last sparring log, didn't I. stonyfaced January 23 2011, 20:28:24 UTC

Yes. I'm... [He feels like noting something, perhaps that he didn't let the beast take over. He still remembers his dream, seeing that man - Carcer - stand over his baby's crib. It is a vision fit only for nightmares, but he doesn't say that. Instead,] By the book. That's how you do it.

Glad to hear it, Ha--Brianna. Hah. If you're anything like me, you'll forget a few times. When did you want to have a spar?

[.....wow.]

Stonef...Vimes?

Hallo, Paladin. [...Well he's not sure what else to say.]

mythgravenblade January 23 2011, 20:36:16 UTC

[That makes two of them.]

...Do you want to be called Vimes from now on? [That seems fairly safe.]

stonyfaced January 23 2011, 21:12:18 UTC

If you like, yes.

Congratulations.

stonyfaced January 23 2011, 21:13:34 UTC

[There is a pause, because Stoneface still doesn't feel that he can trust Juliet as far as he can spit, but... well, a congratulations is a congratulations.]

Thank you.

Geez. You are such a bad ass.

stonyfaced January 23 2011, 23:27:13 UTC

[Okay, he has to chuckle a little at that, albeit somewhat weakly.]

That's called doing arrest... is this Genius? I think I recognize your handwriting better than your voice.

[So this is how their Watch captain operates under extreme duress? Very interesting.]

Guy sounded like a right prick.

stonyfaced January 23 2011, 23:27:53 UTC

A bastard's bastard, yeah. I'm sure of that one, at least. Never trust a man who giggles when someone's about to arrest him, I say.
