No. Let me stop you there.
Let me, in fact, outline for you the reasons why you are unqualified to direct me anywhere. I would say 'play me,' but you of all people should know -
No one plays me.
Consider it a favor.
Reason the first: You don't know who I am. No one knows who I am. That's the whole point. Did you miss it?
Reason the second: You haven't reviewed. If you're going to commit to this farce, you will need to review.
Reason the third: Your distractible little mind will not be able to handle creating my . . . support networks. Again: You'll have to commit. And you'll have to manipulate, or at least play at it. You don't really think you can do that, do you?
And, finally: You already have a number of tasks which I'm sure are very important and which you must prioritize. Really. You should. Go away. Shoo.
Incidentally, I trust I don't need to tell you I find it insulting that the impetus for this venture was the surprise appearance of the Lady Door. If you must bother me, you should do it for the right reasons, and charming as she is, she is not one of them.

i feel you big time, friend. i think american gods is one of the top five best books i've ever read.
Le Marquis de Carabas. I like it. It has been a long time since I have called anyone a Marquis, it almost aaa... a good reminder of my past. [ With a shrug: ] It is ahm, not so bad here. It is interesting, there are interesting people, and some less than interesting people. At least your mundane has chosen you over everyone else, you know? It makes you special, mon ami.
[ He gestures to him. ] But aah, watch out for those... games. And those... memes. And dressing rooms. The games, oh the horror, I was stuck on a space ship forever! I just managed to escape that. And the memes, oh, they have the most wonderful and the most horrible things! One day, you may be given the wings of an angel and a harem of forty beautiful women, the next, they turn you into a chicken. [
leSIGH. ]It is such pain, being the entertainment for these... mundanes.
oh god i know, it's so lush. /book nerddddd
I'm quite sure I'm not part of your past. [ This could be a lie. ] Nor am I your 'ami', although special, yes. Nor do I care for wings or other aspects of angels, nor harems, nor chickens, nor being entertainment. Give me a city of idiots and let me go; that's all I ask.
I would not be entertainment, you see. I don't entertain.
