...Is this some sort of new language?

Only new if you haven't been payin' attention, Double Z!

You'll forgive me if I've had other things holding my attention.

...And is that a nickname? 'Rincewind' isn't even that long, you know. Or common. I don't know that I need a nickname.

Are you hoping someone will pay back a debt, or looking for accomplices?

DSB XZM'G RG YV YLGS?

Maybe not long, or common, but it sure sounds stupid.

Oh, as though "Bill" is so much better.

[it is, actually. Solid first name. Respectable. Rincewind is somewhat jealous.]

[as though he suddenly stopped being fluent in sarcasm:] Isn't it, though? Gosh, I'm so lucky!

Math isn't exactly scary any more.

[first-name-having jackass.]

Right, well seeing as I don't have a translator on me, I'll leave you to it then, Billy.

Don't need the big ones to understand that four outnumbers one.

THEN YOU'VE MADE A MISCALCULATION, PINE TREE
OR MAYBE JUST A MISCOUNT
DON'T WORRY I WON'T HOLD IT AGAINST YOU

MAYBE

[oh no you DIDN'T.] Riiiiight. A translator. Guess I shoulda known that you were one of the dim ones, huh? [a heavy sigh.] That's definitely my fault, this time.

I guess we've got more than four if you count our friends. But that only makes things look worse for you.

One of the dim what, exactly? Either way, you can piss off with all that condescension of yours. I'm only saying that I know my languages, and even Black Oroogu has more pattern in its lettering. This is a practically intentional mess of -

- oh, it's not a language, you've coded it or something haven't you. [Dull-toned recognition. Oh.

A pause.]

...Well that's bloody pretentious of you.

oh yes how could i forget your "friends"
i'm sure they'll be JUST THRILLED to help you out once they learn EXACTLY HOW MUCH TROUBLE YOU ARE IN

Hey, call it what you want! But if you want the right kinda fish, you gotta use the right kinda bait.

Now, keep swimming, minnow.

Gladly.

[Billy.]

You say that like we don't know how powerless you are here.

do you REALLY, THOUGH
AND IF YOU'RE SO CONFIDENT IN THESE SOCALLED FRIENDS OF YOURS
THEN MAYBE I SHOULD INTRODUCE MYSELF

You know. In person. [and THERE'S the trademark giggle.]

[doN'T. you are TEMPTING FATE. you are POKING THE BEAR!! he is POWERFUL AND FRIGHTENING!!!!]

You can't-- They'll know! They'll know it's not me!

[It's not hard to hear the current of fear running beneath the anger.]

Will they, though? I seem to remember Hoodie being awfully concerned about your wellbeing! So concerned, in fact, that he made a _{d e a l.}

You stay away from him! He doesn't have anything you want!

Oh yeah? And just how do you know what I want, Pine Tree? You got an itemized list?

Are they connected, or are you just being cryptic for the fun of it?

Edited 2016-04-22 21:05 (UTC)

I know you can't get it through Ken. So you might as well leave him alone.

If you don't know what I want, then how do you know who I can or can't get it from? Seems like a logical fallacy to me!

Ripping open a hole in the space-time continuum isn't exactly something they teach you in middle school. Or something you pick up playing soccer.

[he actually has a different response, up until dipper drops that little tidbit, giving him an opening. mostly, an opening to make him more nervous.] Sooooo... Soccer, huh?

Hopefully you won't incur debts of your own in the process.

Yeah. That game where you kick a black and white ball around.

[Dipper has a sinking feeling that isn't what caught Bill's attention.]

Golly, how silly of me! And here I thought that was called football. [you are so full of shit, bill.] So, what team does he root for? It'll give us something to talk about!

You're not talking to him! About soccer o-or anything else!
