[...yeah, that's helpful. He rolls his eyes.] I bet you're saying that because you don't actually remember who you've told.

I get drug to a shithole world full of lunatics and not a single smidge of gunpowder around and I still have to deal with a bureaucracy run by crackpots.
--Wait, this isn't going to be permanent, is it!?
I'm a politician. They tell me it's a habit.
[Merlin snorts, amused despite himself.] At least you can admit it. That's more than I can say for Kilgharrah, most times.

do you know how long it takes to get a plumber up here
would you rather drown while we wait

You must have tried other things--I know you've been here for quite a while. If nothing else has worked, what makes you think flooding will work?
[He shakes his head at the toy comment, sighing as another thought hits him.] I'm hearing several of you. All of you are called "Animus"?
