"Thank you, your eminence."
"Thank you, Great One."

Gratitude never meant much to D. In the past, it was just another homage paid to his kind.
"Thank you so much Count."
"Thank you Count. My Grandchildren will be thrilled."

Now, it was simply good manners. Not really important until it was not given.
"Thanks for NOTHING!"
"Thanks for looking after Chris. (Get off my FOOT Chris...)"

People rarely said what they meant - he knew that better than anyone.
Perhaps that was why it was a relief to speak to the Detective sometimes. Even his most sarcastic thanks were genuine.
