Back in the Saddle, Midweek

You guys miss me? 'Cause I'm back now. And I'm pissed.

The Manticore Knights are going down. I'm gonna make their lives hell, anyone want in?

...How pissed are we talking about here? Cuz I don't wanna have to deal with you covering another town in Darkness...

[And then, there's the sensation of him shaking his head.]

Wait, why am I worried about that? I need someone to get me out of here first! Just...don't kill anyone who's not a bad guy, okay?

[whydoyoushine]

Guess what, they beat me to it. This is a police state. Good as covered in darkness, as far as I'm concerned.

[He doesn't sound happy about that, really.]

...where are you?

[lunchleader]

I thought that only happens in movies, though...

And technically it's a cafe where you can get wine with your pastries, but I just got some water with my food. But! But some Knights showed up and they're claiming that I shouldn't be here because I don't got some kind of paperwork.

I mean, I never had to have all that paper stuff before when I was aboard the Rainbow Line! This is unfair and they're trying to arrest me for it!

[whydoyoushine]

They're there?

...sit tight, I'm gonna take their paperwork and shove it where the sun doesn't shine.

[He has picked up phrases from his human infiltrations! He likes this one.]

[lunchleader]

Wait, wha?

[Spike of sheer surprise.]

You're coming here? But...! There's still civilians that need to get out of here! And I can handle this! Really!

[whydoyoushine]

So you get them out before I get there if that's so important.

I've got to hit the Knights where I can find them.

[lunchleader]

I'm working on it! Sheesh--

[And then a spike of fury out of nowhere, and his voice echoes as if he's talking out loud at the same time...which he is.]

O-Oi!! What are you doing to me? I haven't done anything wrong! Get your hands off of me!

[whydoyoushine]

I'm coming. Just sit tight.
