Why are you apologizing, master? I don't understand.

This Korvosan will prestidigitate a toy for a little child, and then dispel the spell and laugh cruel-naturedly at how bewildered and upset they look.

Delmore, fucking why.

The spell doesn't last forever. It's kinder to pull the whole splinter out at once.

What's your good deed for the day, sir?

This Korvosan thinks he already does enough around here, thank you very much. 

This seems like great opportunity to act Good. For maximum reputational benefit Glorio could do something visible that'd look Good to the genpop and be straightforward to explain... but then he couldn't reveal it later in private to the Primate and his confederates as evidence of how Glorio does Good even when it's risky and could hurt his reputation.

So this Korvosan is going to read people's minds to see what they're presently thinking of but not brave enough themselves to do and decide case-by-case whether to sit on his nicked knowings for future blackmail or whether to benevolently meddle. Melyia should do the same. 

You are one twisted individual. 

This visitor to Korvosa will prestidigitate small pebbles to taste like the exotic candies he's encountered in his travels. And as long as you don't chew them, children, they're kinder on your teeth than real cane sugar! And probably better for your young alignments, too. 

This Korvosan will perform the Heimlich maneuver on a four year old who's choking on a rock. 

This visitor to Korvosa will remove the pebble with his unseen servant.

This Korvosan will offer his overclothes to someone who had to run out of the house without them. 

This Wescrani is thinking of helping with the hair-braiding line, since it's turn-key and would help with her image. It sounds so awkward, though. 

Your ring hedges out my mindreading, so this isn't something I can benevolently meddle with.

...Yeah, I'm not going to do it.

They probably wouldn't want me anyway.

There's a gaggle of other Korvosans with the same idea and dilemma, so I'll kick some of them in the pants instead.

This is the essence of Chaotic Good: some rules exist for good reasons, some exist for bad reasons, some exist for no reason, and some only exist in your imagination.

You should follow the rules that exist for good reasons unless you have an equally good reason to break them, but you should ignore the rules that only exist in your mind. 

Some of my favorite rules only exist in my mind. 

Yeah, that's called having a personal code.

It's good to have a personal code!!

I can't tell you mine, since then it'd be a public code, but if you ever need to write a message in the clouds that's for my eyes alone, convert the letters of your plaintext into gematria values and write them as one number, then, cube that number and divide it by three billion five hundred and seventy three million nine hundred and sixty thousand four hundred and thirty-three. Take the remainder and send that part to me; burn the rest. I can interpret from there. 

What?

Well.

Good to know.

Is he actually saying this? Is public key cryptography canon now, or is this just another fourth wall-breaking joke?

I can only remember eight numbers at a time. Can you write all that down?

I can write it down, sure.
