A man who's run out of confessions. Still got a few jokes left, though.

My own confessions ran dry four days ago. So these days I steal other people's through the wall instead. Much better entertainment.

HelgaDon't press your ear to that wall. It's cold.
IvoYour voice carries through the wall too, ma'am.
ThomasWhat comes through a wall doesn't go in the record.
IvoThat's the kindest thing I've heard all day.

The window here's no bigger than a hand, so I've memorized exactly how long it takes the sun to cross it. Went a little fast today.

RozarinIf you can hear through the wall, I resent how thin it must be.
IvoIt's not thick. It's thin, that's why nobody sleeps.
MartaIf you're innocent, you'll get out.
IvoEveryone in here treats that as a joke. You sound like you mean it, and that's the scary part.

Left elsewhere

So even the inquisitor confesses. Want me to trade seats with you?

That's a bit much to call kindness, ma'am.

I won't ask whose name you lit it for.

I know your footsteps, scribe. They're the only sound in here that doesn't scare me.

There was the sound of pages turning through the wall all night. I'll just say I heard nothing.
