Oh no my little dumplings, I am still fully in command. We haven't even begun the show yet! Perhaps a bit of Thursday leaks through when I wax poetic... Interesting.
Anyhoo, that little poem contained a dire warning. I do certainly hope that you heeded it. If not, I doubt that you'll manage to survive until the end of our little performance. Oh, and your tickets are non refundable. Well, "tickets" might be a bit misleading. The proper term might be "collateral." I have, supposedly, pilfered an object of great personal importance from each of you, excepting those performing within my show directly. In fact, I may have even been able to take out two birds with one stone, by pulling two personal treasures from the same location. You really should be more careful dealer. Your security systems didn't even seem to notice my hands. Your tickets stubs will be returned once the show is over. If you manage to survive. Ladies, Gentlemen, please head backstage, you know who you are! The show will begin quite soon, unless, of course, we have to wait for this little scene with Voldy to conclude. That would be fine. It's marvelously entertaining.
