** “I’m sorry, Wall Lord. I didn’t think you’d be too interested in me.”
** “Most people are. There is nothing wrong with it. But Wall Lord…I am sure you don’t want ''me.'' In that, your friend Brilm was the most wrong.”
** “It is not. But I see how I’ve stabbed myself in the leg. Damn. This is why I should watch myself. I’m so conniving when I knit—”
** “Curiosity. How did that [[Belavierr|strange woman]] put it? ‘Curiosity drives my customers to me. The rest is the truth of what I offer.’ I can see where this is going, Wall Lord. Very well. Since there’s no help for it…please don’t be alarmed. Or do. I…am going to show you something that might upset you.”
** “Wall Lord—this is why I am the most requested here. Also, why you don’t want ''me.''”
** “Not for a while. Sorry. Also, not very sorry. You asked. I know the knitting Xesci was manipulating you—or doing it without realizing it even—but you did ''ask.''”
** “I’m sorry for doing this. I like being the [[Belavierr|knitting Drake]] because she’s so…un-sexual. I thought it would help and look what happened. I met her once—she was a strange person. But she knits like a ''genius…''”
** “I think I have to apologize to you, Wall Lord. I…acted in bad faith yesterday. I didn’t realize how manipulative the [[Belavierr|knitting-Drake]] was. She was a creepy bitch. Sorry. It’s the new body.”
** “You mean, would I continue working here? Wall Lord—it’s a job. Sometimes it’s enjoyable, sometimes not. But it’s not a ''passion.'' Especially if you’re the only expert in the room.”
