BenRG:
I think that Bubbles probably predicted Pintsize's words in advance. Let's face it, given what anyone probably knows about him from scuttlebutt alone, that phrase was instantly predictable. Of course, I may be doing Pinty a disservice. He may just be trying to be welcoming and helpful but is being betrayed by his reputation!

Yeah...

Yeah, I think that's unlikely too.

This is Hipsterville; that's probably an obscure black-and-white reprint of a magazine-published manga version of Dune. To call it 'abridged' would be a misnomer. It's probably closer to an 'artistic re-imagining'. For example, I don't think that the Guild of Navigators had big sparkly eyes like that in the book.

It could be a different book by the same name. Or, it could be a documentary on the making of the movie.

Yes, I read it as Pintsize trying to be genuinely friendly in his own inimitable way. He has previously shown some empathy with others when the chips were down, and he knows he'll get dismantled again if he goes too far, so I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt.

BenRG:
@anahata,

I don't know; Pintsize has shown impulse control problems connected with a total lack of appreciation of consequences before.

Big sparkly eyes like what? Where do you see any eyes on the cover of Marten's book?
