Oh well done!
I knew it sounded really familiar.... I probably recognised it cos I thought it was funny when I read it, but my memory didn't stretch so far as specifics!!

Nighteyes was grumbling about Fitz constantly thinking he was about to drop dead from old age and how this meant that he couldn't enjoy the present. Hapless the Tactless is yearning for the bright lights and says something along the lines of having to get away from the backwater, full of nothing but dead fish and old sticks. Charmed, Nighteyes says dryly to Fitz ..'you'll be the dead fish and I'll be the old stick'
...though I'm pretty sure she didn't say it to Malta when they were together in the Crowned Rooster Chamber, after Malta did allow herself to be drowned in the memories, but she might have. Possibly it was said to Reyn, when he and Tintaglia were both chasing sea bears/seals on the beach (can't remember exactly what they were called!) on their journey to finding Malta, and I think Reyn was finally able to reach Malta via the Skill? Not really drowning in memories though...argh! I think it's Malta and Tintaglia as that seems the most likely but will keep dwelling on it some!!
This is Nighteyes talking to Fool, the first time they had ever been joined mind-to-mind. Fool had just thought Nighteyes was 'a dog', pretty much, and was surprised with what he found instead.
