I really ought to spend more time mingling with the humans. They're better conversationalists than goblins, and rarely infuriate me near as quickly.

	If goblins are anything like sun imps, I know what you mean. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	They're good for a momentary distraction, are endlessly entertaining in a mindless way, but when you wish to discuss anything whatsoever, they've got the reasoning, logic, and monumental stupidity of a soap dish. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Even in the old language, Imps aren't exactly good at deep discussion. ... they're good at cleaning? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, another way in which my subjects are inferior. I doubt you've seen much of the goblin kingdom, but well, we're not really known for our cleanliness. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I haven't seen any of it, I'm sorry to say. In the Abarat, imps are caretakers and jesters. I can summon them, but they're not much for talking. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Goblins are jesters, but rarely do they do more than make beds and cause trouble for us in finding things, as far as tidying up is concerned. This Abarat... I'm certain I've heard of it, but I've never been. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you ever want one of the sun imps to visit, let me know. They're surprisingly sensitive. I suppose I'm technically the queen now. If I ever find a way back, you'll have to come visit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Sensitive... well, I do hope they can withstand my subjects' teasing.

If you ever do, milady, I would be glad to visit. It's rare that I find myself in realms other than the human world and my kingdom these days. Even brief interludes into neighboring kingdoms has become rather rare these days. Not much to be said to the other royals what cannot be sent by courier.

	If they understand it at all. I'm technically only the ruler of the Daytime hours, but I have many friends in the Nighttime ones as well. I think you'd like Babilonium - Six O'Clock. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's quite universal, really. Pulling each other's ears and laughing when they yelp, that sort of prattering on. To have a full tour of the Hours would be ideal, but of course, if you've got specific places which are worth a look, I'd be more glad to go there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As long as they don't mind getting bitten, or magic'd to Odom's Spire, I'd say that's all right. I'd do a full tour, but we'd spend more time at some places than others. Scoriae is pretty, but constant volcanic eruptions have made it where nobody lives there anymore. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
