I oughta ask your friend Adaine if she'll help me ward the clinic better, then. [That's going on the to-do list, which is growing bigger with every day. If and when Eddie (who?) ever comes back, Richie is going to appreciate him so much more now for running this shit on his own.] I won't. But harm tends to find me even if I'm trying to avoid it.
[That's the problem with spending his teenage years in nightmare worlds full of horror and monsters, he supposes.]
Oh, you and Lady have magic? That's cool! Did you learn it here or was it something you carried over from your world? [Wait, that's a tangent. Time to get back on track:] I hope so too. They must've been good, if they raised somebody like you.
Look, I'm not gonna put myself in harm's way on purpose. Promise. But...can you tell me their names, so I know who to avoid if they show up on the network? [Either that, or more likely, go anonymous and bully them incessantly. But he doesn't say that to Sansa, mostly because he knows she's going to be displeased to hear that.]
I like this Arya chick already. I bet she's a fucking menace and she'll raise all sorts of hell if she ever gets here. I think—I knew someone like her, once. [But he can't quite remember her face as well. Did she have red hair? He's pretty sure she did. What was her name again, Bev? Ben? No, Ben's a boy's name, it belonged to another Loser.] Tell me more about them?
