"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."
...Are you being ambiguous on purpose? I don't know what you're talking about. What has "chemical influence" to do with you thinking I sent someone to attack you?
No, he is not. Have you spoken to anyone recently, anyone new? Or strange? He didn't pull your name out of thin air, he must have met you at some point to accuse you.
Right, we're all from different universes and we've got powers, everyone here is strange. And I don't know, I talk to a lot of people. No one who really stands out, not recently. There was an unpleasant bodyguard of Baelish's, but I've a feeling you'll say it wasn't him.
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.
[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.

...You believe me, right?
no subject
Date: 2016-10-11 03:01 am (UTC)[But he noted that pause. Spoke nothing of it, yet noted it all the same.]

Date: 2016-10-11 03:05 am (UTC)I feel I've something of a right to know who's accusing me, anyway. Are they in jail?

I assume he's already been told about all this then?
