Dear Urist McEnthusiathicKiller,
I appreciate your concerns for our fortress' safety and willingness to defeat any nasty critters you may encounter. However, that troll was being hauled to his new home, the cage in the meeting hall, to serve as entertainment for you and your friends. There was no need to slay it.
PS : if you ever do it again and I see you, you will win free lava swimming courses.
Dear Urist McTrainer,
I share your enthusiashm for rutherers, and I am as excited as you that we have caught a brand new breeding pair. However, sleeping on their cage may be a little excessive. I understand that you do not currently have your own room, but comfortable beds are at your disposal in the large dormitory with engraved floors. Please use them. The rutherers are not going anywhere, I promise.
Dear Everyone McHauler
It is nice that you understand that corpses belong in graves and I applaude that knowledge. However, as you probably noticed, that particular corpse is currently in the river. You can either wait for that section of the river to dry thanks to the floodgates we built, or wait until winter to dig it out of the ice; but please understand that you can stop complaining about it for the moment, as I have no immediate way of changing the situation.
Dear Urist McMason
Not everyone shares your fascination for hyenas, please make statues of other things from time to time. You have never even SEEN a hyena, what the hell.
Sincerely,
Almighty McFacepalm
