[One sunny day you heard a distant screaming. It quickly got louder until it came to a rather dramatic conclusion when Max came hurling out of the sky and somehow landed on his feet in front of you with a thud.
Landing on his feet doesn't mean it was a good landing, though. You distinctly heard bones snapping, and a second later he fell over, clutching his legs and hissing in pain.]
Augh...bloody furies that was a bad one.
No, don't worry, I'll be good in a second...
Maybe a minute...
Do you have a tub?

[It's the morning of the big test/mission/tournament/event. The day you've been practicing and studying for for weeks. Your roommate, Max, has not been studying, and didn't even come home last night.
In fact here he is now, in a rumpled tunic, carrying an empty wineskin, and...is that lipstick on his cheek?]
I made it. Everything's okay. A few days without sleep never killed anyone right?

...And the crow-begotten rain. I never thought I could get so sick of rain until I came here! It's like the great furies themselves have been pissing on me after a long night at the taps. I haven't been properly dry in months. It's enough to set a man's teeth on edge...
[And so on and so on and so on. Max has been complaining fairly steadily for the last hour or two while everyone works. He's been working too, to his credit, and getting more than his share of work done. But the complaining never seems to stop.]
