You keep your word, at least. Of course, it isn't as if I had doubted you for a moment- but alas, here we are, just as you had promised.

And you've all my support, just as I had promised.

Onward, m'lady. To whatever end.

[ A quiet chuckle ] Well she didn't name me Drunken Bastard so along with foresight she must have held an ounce of kindness.

[reiks]

She must have been a wonderful woman. [ Using past tense, since the huntsman is doing the same, which is kind of sad. ]

[thorforgottoshower]

She was. [ He nods for a moment, a weak kind of half-smile on his lips, but it passes quickly ] Fiend of a woman if you wish some peace or wanted to sleep in any day, though.

[reiks]

[ Aw :c have a hand on your shoulder, friend. ] As mothers are prone to be, the world over.

[thorforgottoshower]

[ Awkward, what is comfort. He just looks sort of uneasy for a moment before shrugging and pulling a flask from inside his vest. ] Cursed things. Necessary as they are.

[reiks]

[ Duly noted. Uncomfortable subject, no touchie. But :< surely mama was a nice lady. Then again, Hal is naive and believes most mamas are nice ladies. ] I'm sure she cared for you very much.

[thorforgottoshower]

Sure. Doesn't make her any less a witch. [ Look at all the respect Huntsman has for the dead, doop dee doo. ] The woman hit with a dish towel. Have you ever been slapped with a wet dish towel? [ It hurts okay ]

[reiks]

brb laughing behind his hand. ]

[thorforgottoshower]

[ A smile touches his lips and he lets out a short laugh ] See obviously you haven't because you wouldn't be laughing.

[reiks]

[ /snerk snerk snerk ] Oh, my friend, I have been struck by a great many things. I merely thought of the scene in my mind, of a great and grand woman badgering about her unruly son with cloth and wooden spoon. As such, I laugh.

[thorforgottoshower]

Ah, a sadist then, are we, friend Hal? [ rude ]

[reiks]

Sadist? Gracious, no, simple amusement and nothing more.

[thorforgottoshower]

That's what all the sadists say. [ He is not even serious ]

[reiks]

Oh, friend huntsman, how little you truly know about me.

[thorforgottoshower]

[ a snort ] Then educate me, friend Hal.

[reiks]

[ He laughs, taps a fingertip to his nose. ] In due time, I believe. All in due time.

[thorforgottoshower]

You're a picky one, aren't you?

[reiks]

What fun would there be in not being picky?

[thorforgottoshower]

You'd be more easily pleased for one thing.

[reiks]

Oh, but I do enjoy being difficult so much more.

[thorforgottoshower]

Ah, see. Sadism.

[reiks]

I've been more aptly described as "pesky," actually.

[thorforgottoshower]

Not selling yourself too well, Friend Hal.

[reiks]

Gracious, was I supposed to be informing you of all my good qualities?

[thorforgottoshower]

Generally you don't start on the bad until after the other's been lulled into companionship by the good. [ huntsman you are the last person to be talking about that ]
