I'm back. From the looks of it, I was gone for around two weeks. I'm back on duty today, so if I missed anything I ought to know about, tell me now

Well hi there, sleepyhead!

Yeah, Nobby's here. I'll come by in a jiff--you still aren't feeding him properly, you know.

[stonyfaced]

You know, I think you're quite possibly the only one who's ever called me that.

Thanks for taking care of him again. And I've been feeding him a bit better. [...] He's never left wanting for food.

[feathered_earth]

Really? Now that's strange.

Don't mention it. (And I believe you... about the second part.)

[stonyfaced]

Why, is it common?

All right, all right, I'll cut back a bit. Do you have Ingvar too, or is he just off wandering around? I'm not too worried about him. He probably feeds himself well enough off the blood of innocents. [He hates that stupid cat. :|]

[crimson_seeker]

Good to see you up and about, Commander.

[stonyfaced]

Thanks, Hawk. Good to be up and about again. Staying down for that long isn't exactly my style.

[crimson_seeker]

The Tree gets to the best of us, Commander. At least you seem to have shaken it off by now.

And the house looks quite presentable by now. Congratulations.

[stonyfaced]

I think the fact that we're here in the first place means its got to the best of us. That damned cocoon isn't too hard to shake off, though it's odd waking up nearly a month later.

Thanks. It's been in the works for longer than it ought to have been, so it's good that it's done.

Welcome back, sir! I do not think there is anything official that you have missed.

What is a locker?

[stonyfaced]

It doesn't seem like it from what I read. It's been a quiet month.

A locker's a place you put your stuff in. Watchmen generally keep things they want to use on their break inside or a change of clothing, that sort of thing. Each watchman gets their own.

[spandexisyouth]

Quiet can be good! Though I think that means it needs more sparkles.

Oh. Like lunch?

[stonyfaced]

[He's going to start--but then gives up. Ugh, sparkles.]

Yeah, like lunch. Or magazines.

[blue_shields]

Sir! Good to see your writing again.

Just assuming from your comment on the plotting post!

[stonyfaced]

Likewise. I heard from a few of the new guys that you've picked up the slack in my absence. Good work.

oh look you made him smirk

[blue_shields]

Thank you, sir. Just doing my duty.

[truthtouched]

Slacking off in your duties?

[Hey, does that handwriting look familiar?]

[stonyfaced]

[Why yes, it does. Luckily, Vimes is controlled enough not to let it show in his writing though he is very surprised to say the least.]

Trapped inside a cocoon, actually. Who are you?

[truthtouched]

I'm October. I was born a couple weeks ago.

[stonyfaced]

Up and running with accusations, I see. I'm Vimes, captain of the Watch here. Welcome to Edensphere.
