I mean it most sincerely when I say that I just love to read your posts, finella. You have such a lovely way of using the words of my native tongue.
As for the quotes, I refuse to look at them

Thank you so much, Farseer. You told me that you have geman roots. Did you ever learn it?
It's perhaps because I'm middle-aged and my english is also middle-aged

I have deleted that extra one for you, Gielske.
You are also able to edit your own posts by clicking the Edit button. Each time you make a new reply, and it appears in the same post space due to the posts being made quite close together time-wise, you will see a little hr to indicate where the line separating every post will go.
So, click Edit and then simply delete the extra post and then click on Update Post. Hope this helps. Otherwise, I'm happy to delete for you...

I'm going to take a stab at this, scared as I am. I was sure it was Fool but just couldn't think where until I started actually thinking outside of the box I'd put myself in. I am going to say that it's not so much 'Fool' but Lord Golden, and I think it may have been when he was talking with Dutiful.
I can't remember exactly where in the Six Duchies it was but the exchange I'm thinking of is when they were bedded down with Fitz (not sure if there was a fire or not but they definitely shared a meal with Dutiful contributing much despite Fitz and Lord Golden's treatment of him). This was after the first confrontation with the Old Blood group who had taken advantage of Dutiful. Dutiful wanted to be free to return to the Old Blood rather than be taken back to Buckkepp.
While Fitz kept giving Dutiful no quarter (I laugh every time I re-read their exchanges!
), Lord Golden was responding here to something that Dutiful had said? Though I can't remember what, it did have something to do with being Witted, the woman bonded with Dutiful's hunting cat (whose identity they still had to learn at the time) and his not wanting the Farseer throne etc. That's about all I have for the moment!
Oh. Which book? It would had to have been in Fool's Errand, if I'm correct about the what when and where. I hate this game...like my thoughts aren't in a tangle enough!

This was when Web was asking Fitz about Thick being able to hold him at bay with a touch when trying to get him to board.
You are correct, treeknee, Fitz is talking to Web on the ship in FF, about Thick, but I would say that the secret he's referring to is why Thick is important to Dutiful.
I can still remember thinking, the first time I read the reply, "Not my secret", how perfectly this captures Fitz's sense of honor and loyalty to his king, while also letting him get away with not answering the question!
RE: RotE quote game...(spoilers all books) - Farseer - Feb-18-2012
I've missed a couple of posts while trying to catch up on everything while I was gone so...
Welcome to thePlenty treeknee!
Great to have you here and I also love your name...Master Treeknee is certainly one of the RotE characters whom I would love to hear more about and learn from. Well met! (Feb-16-2012, 02:44 PM (UTC))Gielske Wrote: Can someone tell me why everytime I quote, I get a double message??
I often get double posts when my internet connection lags or the page seemingly reloads of its own accord. Also, sometimes the original post won't come up on my screen so I'll click the Post Reply button tab again and suddenly two come up, differentiated by the line which comes up as hr in the text.
As I said earlier, it's easy to go back and edit, and delete the one you don't need.
As for the quote, I have to admit to having used this 'Not my secret' line a couple of times since reading TM...
