I appear to have--damaged my harness, and also a dear possession of mine, while I was in the bottle.

[His ruff droops guiltily. Is that a note of embarrassment in his voice? Of course it is. He is nothing if not transparent.]

If there is anyone here with a talent for leatherworking, or perhaps metalworking, I should be very glad to hear it.

I--I must beg your pardon, if I said anything to you that was very rude, or stupid, or both; you may rest assured I am in my right mind again, and the incident is unlikely to repeat itself, and I should like it very much if you forgot everything I--that is to say he--told you, and pay it no mind at all, because it is not true.

And I should think it obvious that goes doubly for you, M. Pontmercy.

I think I owe you the same apology. As I vaguely remember it, we...well the other two of us professed our love for Buonoparte to each other. I am not quite sure WHAT we were thinking.

Good enough yes. Thinking of that mindset, what I may have done myself...well. Better not to. I DO apologize myself, however, for all of that.

Particularly not to M. Pontmercy.

Oh I should certainly hope that he NEVER hears of any of my own...personality shift, no.

I am content to leave it as it lies.
