"At the very least, it could be fun to hang them from the side of a tower by their pantaloons."
"That might end up killing them anyway. Out of embarrassment." A pause, and then he laughs a little and waves a hand himself. "Not that I'm disagreeing."
He wonders how lonely his life must have been, to think that living with an enemy is so much easier to connect with than his previous lofty status. For the first time, he doesn't quash those thoughts immediately.
