The Piper wasn't sitting too close to the conversation, but eavesdropping was second nature for one who spent most of their time around rats. And of course, hearing one's name is always bound to spark interest.
"That's what the Piper said, too."
A sinking feeling in their gut. They. They probably had said that. They didn't remember. They didn't remember needing too, I mean, who doesn't want to talk about their hobbies, and what was wrong with enjoying monster hunting, didn't everyone enjoy monster hunting?
None of these justifications made them feel any better.
Maybe they'd get lucky and the Tailor would forget, too. Though somehow, it never seemed like anyone ever forgot to be mad.
