Cyril pops out of the closet, entirely fine, looking at the decoy in the pool and yelling down, 'Thanks!'.

"Wait," asks the man in the green uniform. "What's the United Nations? Sounds dorky."
While she had no regrets about throwing the lever to douse her husband's mistress in molten gold, Blanche did feel a pang of conscience for the innocent bystanders whose proximity had caused them to suffer gilt by association.

It is at this moment, that a Hammer enters the Bar, at quite high velocity, hitting said man in a green uniform, knocking him soundly out the same window the honourable Cyril Parsons' decoy just passed through.

"DAMMIT, CYRIL! This is why we can't have nice things, you...uh...dammit, I swear I had something for this..." says one of the slightly-darker-black clad men as he rolls out the door.

"Aaaah!!!" screams the man in green as he splashes into the reflecting pool. "Aargh, you idiots!"

Meanwhile, the man in brown looks at Parsons and Ari, an expression of mild fright over his face. "Well, um...does that happen every day?"

Pink looks over to the man in brown. "You'd be surprised how often people fly out the window. Or threaten to chuck people out of it. Stay on your toes." Pink chuckles as he takes another sip of milk.

The man gives Ari a suspicious stare, then stands up and takes the next chair further away from the Wad.

ARI: Erm. Excuse me for interrupting. Wad Ari Alaz, and this is my sidekick-slash-assistant, Wad Ahume Orliss-Dorcke. Perhaps you've heard of us? Anyway. What, erm, what happened to the weird gentleman, the de facto ambassador from Wallenburg? I cannot recall his name; haven't seen him in quite awhile.

ARI: (waves his hand dismissively at Ahume) Yes, Krein, that's the fellow. Has he been recalled as well? I'm reminded I still owe him a stern lecture on interfering in Wrapperian affairs.

(Ahume shrugs nervously. Why does he keep looking at me? Ari's the one making these silly statements.)

ARI: So, judging by your uniform, you and Miss Trevanyika were compatriots before the unification, yes? Perhaps you can--

AHUME: (interrupting) What about Gerald?
