So! Am I here to talk about consequences? Am I in trouble, or is that academic too?

A 4 panel Dune comic

Baron Harkonnen and Piter are sitting at a table. The Baron is reading from a letter, Piter is balancing a knife on his finger by the hilt.

Panel 1:

Baron (frowning): The client says that you skillfully eliminated the correct target -

Piter (pleased with himself): I always put X's on the ones I'm not supposed to kill. Little trick I learned from the surgeons; you know, for not mixing up legs during amputations?

Panel 2:

The Baron glares at Piter, who looks back at him innocently but seems to take the hint.

Panel 3:

Baron (frowning more deeply): ...The client then goes on to say that when you spoke with them, your behavior was unprofessional and, I quote, "not quite stable, if I'm honest."

Piter (highly amused): Not quite stable! Oh, please, I can't be that bad. I asked my doctor if I had trauma or not, and they told me it was academic.

Panel 4:

Baron (looking angry but also just confused): (Pause) Genuine question. Who is your target audience when you get like this?

Piter (still very amused): There are no targets, m’lord. Only casualties.
