Right, so it's been brought to my attention that those bloody awful reports have been floating certain rumors around about me, and I'd rather just end those before they even get going all right?

[because even Rincewind's starved sense of self-respect has to draw the line at people thinking he fancies dishware.]

So, to be clear: I'm pansexual.

[which is an admittedly backwards linguistic for declaring one's lack of attraction to tea cups and related sundry, but there's just no accounting for etymological taste.]

There? [he arches a pointed brow.] Shall I assume that just about does it? All questions answered? Jolly good.

[honestly, the people in this place really will believe anything, won't they? Lucky that Snart fellow pointed this out when he did - things really could have gotten out of hand.]

Platonic means, like - non-sexual.

[wizzardly]

Oh.

[p a u s e]

...Then what does pansexual mean?

[rathercommon]

Ah.

[ As kindly as she can: ]

It's nothing bad or embarrassing. But I think that also it might not be what you actually are. So don't feel bad about saying it, but - probably don't say it any more. Because it's not accurate.

[wizzardly]

I suspect you aren't being entirely honest with me on whether I've just embarrassed myself.

[rathercommon]

[ Very firmly, and much less than honestly: ]

You absolutely haven't.

[wizzardly]

I've a distinct feeling you're possibly just being kinder than most would be.

But I'll take it anyhow.

[rathercommon]

Good! Because honestly, I've got a good level of kindness. Everyone else needs to get better.
