You clean the product before you deliver it. That is the first rule of presentation. The second is that condition matters only to whoever is waiting on the other end.

Summary
His steps were light. Dottore closed the distance between them, with his back facing the Iriminsul.
If it's an interesting ending he wants, Pantalone can't think of anything more fitting.
He exhales, slow, and lets something in his chest settle into place. If was not grief, not yet, just the shape grief will eventually take. Then he bows. One hand drawn back against his ribs, the other extended, palm up, fingers loosely open, an invitation rather than a request. It is, he thinks, the most honest gesture he has offered anyone in decades.
“Dottore, humour me, will you?

Summary
Finally, he looked back at the screen to read the article title. Staring back at him in bold font were the words: 'Investigating the true collaboration between the Doctor and the Regrator - pure business partners, or illicit relations?!'.
"They can't be serious," Zandik said flatly.
"Truly preposterous," Feofan agreed.

Summary
What matters is this, here: Pantalone jams his pointer and middle fingers into his mouth. A rosy fixture atop porcelain skin marred into creases–both from age and fire–ajar to send a protest Pantalone’s way. Before he can try, Pantalone parts his fingers and slides them to either side of his gums, exposing two rows of exquisite teeth.
And four unmistakably pointed canines.
Or, wherein Dottore summons Pantalone after work hours for an impromptu "emergency" meeting.

Summary
Pantalone draws a shaky breath. "I was in your office earlier," he begins, "looking for a copy of your will. You don't have a will. Did you know that?"
Dottore says nothing. Pantalone takes a drag of his cigarette and continues.
"One of your subordinates came in looking for something. He reeked of antiseptic. I had to send him away."
Because he smelled like antiseptic?
"Because he smelled like you."

Summary
Pantalone scoffs. "What's your favorite part then, hmm?"
"When Vodyanitsa's character dies, of course."
"Ah. Naturally."
It is truly a shame that Pierro had the foresight to order the Harbingers to be civil to one another for the duration of the show. If he hadn't, the issue of Sandrone's present company would have been dealt with by the end of the first act. "Has it ever occurred to either of you," she mutters, "that not everyone has seen this play before?"
Pantalone hums lightly. "Opera, actually."
Sandrone is going to kill him.
Alternatively: Sandrone has the misfortune of being seated next to Dottore and Pantalone at the opera. It is perhaps the most horrendous three hours of her entire career.
