She knew more about these situations than she realized, he thought. She'd spent years at Duncan's side. When in doubt, he added, be pompous.

I said, names aren't important, he repeated. There was a silence between them for some seconds, then the Ranger said: Do you know what is important? Will shook his head. Supper is important!
John Flanagan
You spoil your horse, Halt said. Will glanced at him. You spoil yours. Halt considered the thought, then nodded. That's true.

Do you think you could put that boot back on? he added mildly. The window can only let in a limited ammount of fresh air and your socks are a tough ripe, to put it mildly. Oh, sorry! said Horace, tugging the riding boot back on over his sock. Now that Halt mentioned it, he was aware of a rather strong odor in the room.

I'll be getting you for this,' Halt had told him as he dabbed the diguisting mixture on the worst of the cuts. 'That soot is filthy. I'll probably come down with half a dozen infections.' Probably,' Horace had replied, distracted by his task. 'But we'll only need you for today.' Which was not a very comforting thought for Halt.

Horace normally didn't need anyone else to save his life. He was pretty skilled at doing it for himself.

You're not built for riding, either, Horace added. I'd say more saddle sore than homesick. Svenal sighed ruefully, shifting his buttocks for the twentieth time to find a more comfortable spot. It's true, he said. I've been discovering parts of my backside I never knew existed.

Always expect trouble in the desert. Then you usually won't meet it.
John Flanagan
After all, he did say you were the issue of an encounter between your father and a traeling hatcha-hatcha dancer. There was a gasp of horror from the crowd. Duncan, smiling thinly, said through gritted teeth: Thank you so much for reminding us all, Anthony.
John Flanagan
You're a very amusing fellow, he told Halt. I'd like to brain you with my ax one of these days. Erak to Halt.

Horace, who had been trying to find out the meaning of Kurokuma for some time now, was pleased to hear the translation. Black bear, he repeated. It's undoubtedly because I'm so terrible in battle. I'd guess so, Will put in. I've seen you in battle and you're definitely terrible.

Mikeru was still puzzling over Horace's last remark. He frowned. 'Kurokuma, these shenanigans... What are they?' 'Shenanigans are what Rangers do. They usually involve doing things that risk breaking your neck or your leg.' Mikeru nodded, filing the word away. 'I will remember this word,' he said. 'Shenanigans. It is a good word.'
