I doubt the people who care about you will mind being scolded about being dramatic or overreacting when they see you hurt.

[ he looks fond ]

I'm glad it's not that bad, though.

[outsidebones]

I suppose.

[she frowns a little in his direction.]

It isn't worth worrying over.

[shaft]

I'll stop worrying then.

[ a little bit of a the humour fades ]

Did you receive anything useful?

[outsidebones]

One of those lockets. Not information, the way some have received. Still, it was thematic.

[shaft]

Your adventure? What did it entail?

[outsidebones]

We were in different worlds. But in each one, it turned out we were actually participating in a show. At first, people we knew tried to get us to leave. Later, when we realized it was all false, we could see the audience - an arena of skeletons following our story for entertainment.

We had to convince them to leave by boring them, or our contract would have been extended for ten seasons.

[shaft]

... Interesting. It sounds quite similar to our situation at Wiwaldi.

Did you manage to bore them?

[outsidebones]

Long enough for Jason to run the leader over with a car.

[shaft]

Wow, it'd be nice if we could do that here.

[outsidebones]

Agreed. We can simply run the Nightman over with a car and drive away.

[shaft]

Ah, but that would leave the matter of our hostages.

We'd have to find a car big enough for them all.
