It seems I'm fully recovered from my previous injuries. My wig is still ruined, though. Wine is very hard to remove, you know.

I recall few things from the flood -- merely that I was American, I believe, the owner of -- theme parks, an engineer, and apparently married to an insane bitch hellbent on killing me.

Joyous.

I still have the suit. Interesting tailoring. Conceals the shape a little more, but accents certain lines. I can see why it was considered fashionable.

[Private to West]

Is everything all right?

[Private to the Joker]

So you made a fine venture of searching the cabins while everyone was in port. How are you with Detective work?

That last story that circulated. I want you to find out who wrote it.

(deleted comment)

The story that was passed around involving Major West, Ralphie Cifaretto and Charlie Prince.

The author.

(deleted comment)

I know who likely wanted it written, but not a clue who could have done the actual writing.

(deleted comment)

We'll discuss the price first, details after.

Now what, ma pierrot, could you possibly desire from someone such as myself?

(deleted comment)

And that, my friend, is something I would be overjoyed to provide as payment.

I strongly suspect that the Master commissioned that bit of fiction, but he's not likely to tell you if he thinks that I sent you.

(deleted comment)

I'm afraid I have no others. But I'm sure you'll figure something out.

I'm as well as can be expected? Why do you ask?

The flood was not particularly kind to you.

They rarely seem to be.

How are you?

I'm better, Henry. Much better.

...I'm glad ~~Doctor~~ Billy was able to look after you.

Did you enjoy it? The suit was quite stylish. I think you wear the modern look well.

I am, too.

If you say so, Henry. I am rather sorry that a flood went and made things difficult.

I was going to enjoy undressing you.

And speaking of undressing: It would seem you did not last a week after all.

No.

...The bastard did more to provoke you than I expected he would; I don't hold it against you, so don't think that is what I am doing.

I just -- fare better if I can be as I am.

I wouldn't want you to be anybody else.

I just don't want to discuss that right now. ~~Or even think about shagging anybody~~

Nor do we have to. I apologize.

So... what have you been up to?

I'm considering whether or not I should feel angry with Romana.

Have you spoken to her at all since that Port?

Not one fucking word.

Have you tried communicating with her? Or is she simply unavailable?

I don't want to communicate with her. She runs off to chase after that scrawny little shit without inquiring after my health after I've been beaten. Does she take any steps to see to it that ape Cifaretto is punished? No. And mark my words, since she's been back here she's said more to The Doctor's little pet than she has to me!

It sounds like she's infatuated with him. I've no idea why any would be, but... I think you should tell her what a rubbish job she's doing. Knock some sense into her-- figuratively.

Even looking at her sickens me. My hand is shaking even now.

I think you could use a drink right now.

I do believe you are right.

I'm afraid I don't have any alcohol, myself, to offer you at the moment.

I believe I have plenty.

Then you're already set. Don't drink too much and do anything silly.

Me? Silly? Henry, I'm insulted.

Of course. You've never done anything silly.

Precisely.
