"No."
"Come on you're already packed!" I tell you most of my conversations with Nidget start with no and work down from there. Like I know I'll end up helping him because I'm an idiot at heart, but I have to make him work for it.
"Nidget you have Andre you two are set, I'll watch the store it'll be like what I just did to you but in reverse." My logic as always was amazing.
"We need your Mr. Lorentino because this is more your territory than Nidget's or mine." Andre always the peacemaker, for a person who worshipped conflict he certainly always seemed to want to avoid it.
"You think appealing to my ego will work? Ok you're right now you've got me curious." I'm anything if not really easy to appeal to.
"I just need you to help me clear this bounty and then I'll be ok, I mean bounty hunters are bad, but if the Guard catches word I don't want Captain Therod executing me or anything." She could, she had the authority she kept holding it over my head repeatedly.
"Ok so when does the train leave?"
"Yeah there isn't one we'll have to get there on horseback." I hated this already and I had just started.
"So its close by then?"
"Not really."
"Nidget you are making me hate this more and more."
"Come on Trezlan you'll get to show your powers of wit over a dimwitted local official! Think of the possibilities."
"I am, and they all end in me disliking you a lot more than I aleady do." And yet I went along with it, because again I'm an idiot. At least I had Andre there, so it wasn't all on me this time, I mean in a way Nidget helps, but his helping is a lot like breasts on a man, confusing but ultimately useless.
