Oh, right! Finding out he was actually there was funny, but I can imagine how frustrating that would have been... [The teasing goblin edge fades a little in lieu of sincerity as he adds:] You really did a lot of hard work for us, Monsieur Lucien. Thank you very much!
[Unfortunately Dahut is a freak and spends his time surrounded by freaks so Lucien just fits in really.]
He did, he did. Being buried under a rat wave can do a person good! [CAN IT.] Anyway, don't fuss, just accept the thanks. We're all grateful, but I want to make sure you know it! You have the air of a sour grape who hasn't been genuinely thanked enough and doesn't know what to do with it now.
You are so incredibly gloomy... [He will very gently and briefly pat Lucien's arm.] Be kinder to yourself! Though you at least have Monsieur Viktor to be kind to you for you.

Though after a beat, his expression shifts to something a little more serious and concerned.]
--Do you know what happened to that notebook you sent us? Monsieur Viktor told us to destroy it, but it was already gone by then.
