[She hefts a rather large looking book onto the table in front of her, a bright smile laid upon her face.]

It seems my fortune that the High Queen of the Seelie Court has granted me a skill of this kingdom. I've been given an old tome of the previous potion master here, and while I have no knowledge of magic not witchcraft it seems my interest in alchemy, poisons, and antidotes may transcend realms.

[A hand smooths over pages as she begins to turn.]

I wish to do whatever I can to help those here, to both protect myself and do what I can for those who cannot. But as I said I've no great skill in magic. I have already met one kind witch here, and I must call upon the kindness of others to guide me. I will not squander this gift.

If there be any in either court with any knowledge in potion making, I would wish to speak with you. My thanks. [It's a noble bending of her head before she leans in to switch the feed off.]

Oi, I've got one, darling! One part molasses, one part sugar, one part water. Add in the tiny yeasties. Do various and sundry other things to it. Then give it to me.

[It's worth a shot. The rum at the Station is so mediocre.]

I seek them like a most holy nun.




Monk. Like a most diligent prayerful monk.

I robbed Vatican City once. Dressed as an altar boy. Then got myself away quick as can be, right down the Tiber in a gondola. Have you ever poled a gondola at top speed wearing a cassock?

You should try it sometime. HOWEVER -- I would strongly advise you not to shove the pole too firmly into the mud at the bottom of the river.

Strongly. Never, ever do that. Not ever.

[He'd been so young and foolish back then.]

Also, never yell 'Oi aren't we a funny old bird!' at the Pope. Not ever.

[He should just write an advice column about things not to do in Rome.]
