"Starting a... drug van? What were you selling, liao, black lotus...?"

Who let nemos take drugs.

"No no, see, we weren't actually selling anything, we were just going to claim to be selling so we could scam people out of their money. We didn't even get started really, like I said, it was this whole thing."

"You're pretty lucky, if you succeeded at that someone might be really annoyed."

“We weren’t going to scam anyone important. Just, like, Tubbo or whoever.”

(From inside the walls: “HEY! I HEARD THAT!”)

"Tubbo's also a nemo?"

“Yeah.”

"I guess I do support you being able to secede so you can scam each other with fake drugs or whatever."

“Wooooooo! Yeah!”

"My husband will want to come too. He paints."

“He’s welcome with us. —You’ll need uniforms, can either of you sew or should I get Tommy to make them?”

"I think if you recount your uniform pile you'll find that there's one more uniform than you previously thought. --Pickman doesn't wear clothes, he's a ghoul."

“—Right, okay. That’s— yeah! Great! Awesome!

Our only rule is no weapons or armor inside the walls unless you’re attacked, we believe in the power of words over weapons. Also don’t, like, help Dream, given that he’s trying to kill us.”

"With anything or just with things related to the war?"

“…I mean, it depends? But to be quite honest I doubt he needs help with anything particularly.”

"I can abide by the rules." He takes off his pistols. "Anywhere I'm supposed to put these?"

“There’s a chest out here, but the more secure places are all inside the walls—or in Tommy’s house, I suppose—and they will get stolen if you just leave them lying around. You can bring them in as long as it’s just to put them somewhere safe.”

"If someone steals my pistols they're going to regret their choices."

"Well, stealing is pretty normal around here, so either keep your pistols safe or warn people first what you'll actually be pissed about having stolen. --Like, obviously you can take it back if someone steals anything of yours, but people'll be surprised if you hold a major grudge."

"Well, when in Rome. I'm going to go collect Pickman."

"Of course."

He heads back. Is Dream here and going to cause trouble?

Dream's around, but he's jumping around climbing with one of his friends, not causing trouble. He waves at Randolph Carter and then goes back to jumping between treetops.

"I want to help the rebels," Randolph says to Pickman, "Dream's an asshole."

"What's the catch?"
