This is some good stuff! Can I keep it for a day? I'll return it to you tomorrow! Ah, a side note, seems like Nikolai Gogol has been rather busy in here. Well, not so fun fact! Fyodor won back home! It's totally the end of the world! We are all super duper screwed! Even back home, I am unsure whether Nikolai knows. It's best to confuse the living hell out of him! So, please, lie away, I remember everything from my last stay, as far as everyone is concerned! Ah, we are all so dead.
