I've grown, as a person. I'm not the same Fletcher you used to know. \"You look a lot like him.\" \"Well, yeah, but-\" \"And you have the same ridiculous hair.\" \"Can we just shake hands?\" \"Of course we can,\" Skulduggery said, and they shook. \"Now what?\" \"I, uh...I don't really know. What do adults usually do after they shake hands?\" \"Generally, the first thing they do is let go.\" \"Oh, right,\" Fletcher said, and Skulduggery took his hand back. \"So, Skulduggery, how have you been? You're looking well. That's a really nice tie. \"It's blue.\" \"And such a nice shade.\" Skulduggery looked at Valkyrie. \"You promised me he wouldn't be annoying.”",
