18. Grandmaster
“So, you really thought you would get away with this? You really thought you would sneak about, fiddle with my palace, and then just walk right out with my stuff? Well I don’t think so!”
“Uhm, Grandmaster, that’s… that’s just a guard.”
“What? He’s not the thief?”
“No.”
“Then who’s the thief? Wha-wha-what’s with your head? What are you nodding like that. Use your outside voice.”
“The rodent. The rodent’s the thief.”
“That? I thought that was just a fancy pet.”
“It’s the thief.”
“Really? Wow, kind of, kind of caught me off guard there. Do I have to yell at a rodent now?”
“You could just kill it?”
“What? No no no, I’m not killing that, it’s too cute. Wait, is that why it’s wearing clothes?”
“It talks.”
“You’re kidding me. You’re not kidding me? Oh… oh oh, this is, oh yes, this is beautiful. Oh yes. Quick quick, little rodent thing, say something.”
“…something.”
“Oh my, oh my oh my oh my, this is amazing. I have never seen something like this. Topaz, have you ever seen something like this? I haven’t seen anything like this.”
“I have never seen anything like this.”
“I know, this is… oh this is perfect.”
“So we’re not killing it?”
“No! No we’re not killing it, don’t you see… of course you don’t, look look.”
“Use your words.”
“It’s a walking, talking, clothes wearing rodent.”
“My name’s Rocket.”
“Its name is Rocket! It has a name! Topaz, this is the best day of my life.”
“Can’t we just kill it already?”
“Nooo, Topaz, don’t you understand? I now own a thing that nobody else in this universe owns. Don’t you get it? There ain’t no thing like him except him!”
“Oh gods… don’t, don’t do this again.”
“Yes, do! Do this again! I can finally shove this in my brother’s face! Oh this is going to be so sweet.”
“Please, it’s going to be the one hump camel all over again.”
“Leave Doris out of this. I didn’t know Taneleer already had one, but this, he doesn’t have one of these. We need to have a party, then we can show my little Rocket to everyone. Everyone will look at my little Rocket, and then Taneleer will wish he had a Rocket like mine!”
