"Er... yes, okay, I suppose I should tell you that if you're trying to reach me I'm not here, and if you're trying to reach me because you want to do something involving pointy bits of metal or otherwise painful objects, I'm never going to be here. So sorry."
Well, you know how it is. You find out a bloody dangerous person who already hates you now gets to think you're sending inept spies after him, it can make a person nervous. [he's tired of tiptoeing around his standing with the lord. Lucifer's gone; there's no point anymore.]
[the emphasis feels like a slap to the face. Rincewind shirks his shoulders.]
Well. After, then.
...Why would I send someone to your office to learn about him? Just - logically. I already know more about him than I care to. I really think you'd have less to say.
[April lets out a small huff as she pushes herself into a standing position. Totally using the couch to leverage herself up, messing with his settling just a tiny bit out of principle. ]
[ah, but... that last does spark something. Why does that sound familiar?]
But I - wouldn't be to blame then. If I was. [sounding more uncertain.] For someone else getting some barmy idea about things, I mean. I've tried to keep you out of danger, not put you in it.
[ The next day, a delivery. A calendar for the man who loooooooves heights, with handwritten notes for the rest of October, November and December of 2016, and detailed descriptions of all the major holidays. ]

Tempting as it would be to throw away, the calendar ultimately ends up shoved inside a desk drawer. ...Just in case.]
