[It was remarkable really. No context whatsoever, and still, it was like Maxwell was in the room hearing the tone exactly.
It makes him sigh. As expect.]
If you enjoyed having the place to yourself, I've got good news for you. I'm going to be moving out.

Oh? Need a hand?
[Which from another person might be seen as a helpful offer, but from Hans, it's more like whatever he can do to help move things along more quickly, he'll do.]

[Maxwell guesses as much, and wonders if the truth will please or frustrate.]
Fortunately, I don't have much, so I think I can manage. Unfortunately, my new residence won't be ready to move into for a while longer yet.
So you're still stuck with me, again, for the time being.

You actually have no idea when you're leaving, do you?
Don't worry, I am going eventually. I'm just not the one having it built, so no, I can't say exactly. I'm told later this month, perhaps early next.
All right, fine. Thank you for letting me know.
[He might be a self-absorbed ruthless criminal, but he's generally polite.]

[That elegant efficiency, intimidating polish, back-handed politeness... and the sincere belief that were deemed it necessary, and if it was thought it could be gotten away with, that anyone could be thrown to the wolves.
It's been like living with Vivienne all over again, and he's not terribly broken-up by the idea of not sharing a wall anymore either. So, his roommate's duty finished, Maxwell is happy to leave the conversation simply and politely.
While he still can.]
You're welcome. Best of luck.

[He'll just refrain from pointing out that Alfie could have just called in the first place.]
Indeed. Could we get on with it, please?

Fucking hell, are you in a snit today. Native. From outside Maurtia Falls. He wants to set up some explosive booby traps around his land to deter trespassers - little things for the outskirts, then progressively bigger bombs for anyone who's persistent enough to reach the small stuff and keep going. He doesn't want any explosions that are gonna kill someone instantly, but maiming is all right for the biggest ones.
Sound like something you can handle?

[Hey he works three jobs, he's a busy man.]
The bombs themselves are not a problem. They are not however, akin to landmines, as they're electronically detonated, with the signal having to come from within a certain range.

And that's not something that can be changed, I suppose.
[Alfie doesn't actually know very much at all about modern explosives, but he figures that if it were, Hans would have said so.]
Well, all right; I'll pass it on to him. But I'm guessing, right, that he's still gonna be interested; he seemed the determined sort.

I'm not going to say it wouldn't be possible for an electronic surveillance system alert to trigger the detonator in turn, but that is not part of the package as far as what I'm supplying goes. Other options for him would include having a surveillance system alert him so that he could detonate the explosive, or he could simply lie in wait. [If he's the obsessive sort.]
No, but I'll make it a point to look into it.
