[undrowned]

Ah ... are you being bullied?

[gorb]

A little.

Not anything I can't handle though. People just won't mind their business.

[undrowned]

You're tolerating it? No promises of death or revenge?

[gorb]

I'm not allowed to do that anymore.

[undrowned]

You were serious in carrying them out ...?

[gorb]

Who knows?

I like to be mysterious.

[undrowned]

Tell them I said to kick your seat.

[gorb]

( It's already being kicked, thank you very much. )

Do you think this plane has parachutes?

[undrowned]

[ ah ... ]

Probably? Why?

[gorb]

Debating throwing someone out.

Myself, probably. Less likely that I'll get a disapproving lecture.

[undrowned]

You can't!

You're very important to me. I won't have a lunch buddy otherwise.

Throw out your seatmate instead.

[gorb]

If only.

( Maybe this time his attempted murder would stick. )

But no, since you need a lunch partner so bad I'll refrain. I'll just think about it really hard.

[undrowned]

It can be a case study for that student of yours that wants to learn how to meditate.

[gorb]

What not to do when everyone annoys you?

He's a good boy, he's already much better at behaving than I am.

[undrowned]

Maybe you should be his student instead.

[gorb]

Maybe.

I'm sure he'd have a fair few things to teach me.

[undrowned]

You trust him that much?

[gorb]

He just has opinions on things.

He's very kind.

[undrowned]

Good.

You need more kind people in your life.

[gorb]

( Unfortunately it will not last. )

Ha.

No, I have enough.

[undrowned]

Somehow I'm not convinced.

[gorb]

Ah, I'm sure I'll find a way to prove it to you someday.

( That or he'll disappoint her enough that she leaves him behind. Either one. )

[undrowned]

[ she reads his message over, wondering. there's a pause before she responds - ]

... and then what?

[gorb]

Then you can worry less.

[undrowned]

... I don't think that's how it works?
