Honestly, this is why I so loathe these infirmary visits. You strap me to a bed (so much wasted potential, there) and I miss everything interesting.

And so few visitors! The lot of you wish me to die of ennui, is that so?

In all seriousness we really must discuss the matter of my release. Am I going to require surgery of any kind? It's been agony on my back to even try to walk; what is to be done?

A little I must admit. I've seldom been even civil to you.

You've also seldom been uncivil. I should think that balances things out.

I try to avoid you. A reminder of aspects of home I don't wish to remember.

Are there many half-lunatic libertine writers in your time?

No, I think you were the only one. My cousin made a go at writing something terrible--or so I've heard--but he was miserable at it. To be honest, I was largely ignorant of you until I came here. My sister tended to keep a very close eye on my reading habits.

But... you remind of the nobility, not in good ways. And it has little to do with what you've done. I have no good excuse.
